Episode Wrap-Up

The episode is a fast-paced, sharp, and irreverent conversation synthesizing serious analysis of American political dysfunction with personal pet peeves and cultural confessions. In classic "I've Had It" style, the guests and hosts vacillate between earnest progressive critique (on harm reduction voting, the failures of the Democratic establishment, and conspiracy-mongering among the elites) and petty irritants (Bluetooth, iOS updates, road rage). The dynamic is energetic, honest, and occasionally chaotic—mirroring the tumultuous political climate discussed.

Listeners walk away with:

• Insight into current left/progressive anxieties
• A behind-the-scenes look at New York's radical governance as a progressive model
• Cathartic laughs about millennial angst, political hypocrisy, and daily aggravations
• A sense that these conversations reflect both the fractures and possibilities in American democratic culture.

For fans of political commentary that mixes grassroots frustration, inside jokes, dirt-dishing, and strategic hope, this episode delivers 100%.

Transcript

[Jennifer]

So are we supposed to start the podcast? Patriots Gay trio. They trio Black Triots, Brown Triots. And all of the fascists can do what.

[Austin]

You're supposed.

[Pumps]

Terrible.

[Austin]

Oh my God, it was terrible. Listen, I did exactly what you told me to do, Jen.

[Jennifer]

Oh, fuck off, Hassan.

[Caller 1]

Off.

[Hasan]

I said call.

[Austin]

Yeah, it's dumbass. I couldn't.

[Hasan]

You didn't say anything. Well, I was worse than me.

[Austin]

No, I. I got thrown off.

[Hasan]

You're worse than me. Why do you always. You want to impress her so much?

[Austin]

I. I've already does. I always impress her.

[Hasan]

You're. You're trying.

[Austin]

How's your. How are your parents?

[Jennifer]

My parents are great.

[Caller 1]

So.

[Austin]

He didn't even know they were in town.

[Jennifer]

Listener. We are in New York City, New York, with part of fear and. That's right.

[Hasan]

Yeah. Mum Donna stand, baby.

[Jennifer]

That's right. With Hassan and Austin.

[Hasan]

That's right.

[Jennifer]

And Hassan, what have you had it with?

[Hasan]

I've had it with a lack of accountability, okay? From the international elite pedophilic cabal getting zero accountability whatsoever, to ICE agents gunning down Americans in the streets. I'm done. It's time for punishment. Okay? I know a lot of people will say, hasan classic. He's a communist, he wants the gulags. But like a little bit of reeducation I think is a necessity. Just a little bit. Not even re education, because for many Americans is just education. Cuz they haven't been educated at all. But like we gotta start punishing people. That's what I want. I want accountability. I want law and order.

[Jennifer]

Cancel culture.

[Hasan]

I want not. No, not even. I want them to go to jail. I want people to go to prison. If you do a crime, there's a social contract. If you do a crime, you're supposed to do the time. But unfortunately, if you do a crime at the behest of this pedophile president, then you're fine. They literally will take you out of prison. Just like they did with January 6th. That was apparently a warning. And same goes for the ICE agents. Or if you're like super wealthy, you can do the most heinous crimes of all time and no punishments are dished out. I've had it with that. We got to bring back punishments.

[Jennifer]

I completely agree. I'm going to ride on that coattail. Ride on that. That. I have had it with corporate Democrats telling us that they are going to rearrange the rules for ICE and then expect a convicted felon, a criminal that hasn't served time to enforce those laws when they don't care about the laws. And what I think they're trying to do, Hasan, is I think they're trying to say, okay, we'll behave for now. And then come midterm election day, it's full tilt ice, voter suppression. Why should we believe the corporate Democrats when they patronize us to say, oh, we trust this convicted felon to follow the law?

[Hasan]

Yeah, they've shown that they don't want to follow the law at all.

[Jennifer]

Austan.

[Austin]

Well, I've had it with road ragers.

[Hasan]

I knew. I thought it was coming. I thought something was coming, but I thought it was going to be like airplane food.

[Austin]

No, I. I need to get better. I was just getting a little uncomfortable. Not because I. Obviously, I agree with both of you very. But I was like, I. I didn't. Of course I do. Oh, my God. Of course. I. But I didn't have, like, something as politically driven that I've had it with.

[Jennifer]

Something with so much moral clarity.

[Austin]

But anyway, I've. I've had it with road ragers. I'm sick and fucking tired of these people existing on planet earth and pretending that they're the only one. So they feel as if they need to put our lives in danger on the road in the pursuit of some sort of petty victory.

[Jennifer]

Let me ask you this.

[Austin]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

Do you ever road rage?

[Austin]

I used to.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. Because typically, I'm a former.

[Austin]

I'm a retired road rather.

[Jennifer]

I get angry at road ragers. I'm like, oh, my God, come on, it wasn't that big of a deal. You're fine. We didn't wreck.

[Hasan]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

But then if somebody turns in front of me, I'm like, fuck you. Mind your own business. I'm a complete hypocrite on the road ranger issue. Total hypocrite.

[Austin]

I mean, I guess you're right. When I do something wrong, I tell the other. It's like, fucking relax.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Austin]

You know what I mean? Chill out. Chill the fuck out.

[Hasan]

I got a solution for roverage. Drink a little bit, you know, just keeps you locked in. Okay. It cures your anxiety. Now I love it.

[Jennifer]

New York Post. Hasan Piker comes to New York and says people to drive drunk.

[Austin]

No, I don't. I disagree with him on that. Really? Really. Morally opposed. And drink.

[Jennifer]

I do drunk driving.

[Austin]

I post drinking and driving. But I do.

[Hasan]

Can you say that? Brave. I do. It's a brave.

[Austin]

But I do think if you smoke a little pot drive.

[Hasan]

Okay. No, I'm joking. I don't know if you are.

[Jennifer]

Are you serious?

[Austin]

No, I'm not serious.

[Hasan]

That's saying he's actually endorsing.

[Austin]

Guys don't smoke pot and drive, but it's better than drinking. If you had to choo.

[Hasan]

That's right.

[Austin]

You know what I mean? I'm just saying if you had to choose. I'm not endorsing either.

[Jennifer]

Okay. Would you rather get behind the will of a person that's stoned or a person that's drunk?

[Austin]

Yeah, person that's stoned.

[Jennifer]

I'm taking the stoner.

[Austin]

Yeah, taking the stoner. Because at least we're going to move slowly and methodically, I think.

[Hasan]

Drunk driver. Why? Oh, why?

[Jennifer]

Spicy.

[Hasan]

Okay, okay, first of all, drinking alcohol is legal and driving is legal. So why is the merger of the two illegal? Nobody knows. That's number one. Number two, it's not about drunk driving per se. It's more so about drunk crashing. And it's the drunk crashers that actually ruin it for the rest of us.

[Jennifer]

For the drunk drivers. Yeah.

[Hasan]

Yeah, that's true. And for that reason, if you have an experienced drunk driver behind the wheel, you don't want them sober anyway because they're going to be cranky. They're going to get into an accident. They're. They're going to be too anxious, too nervous behind the wheel. So I'd rather have them be, you know, a little bit on the side.

[Jennifer]

Here's the thing. Remember that guy that drove Princess Diana? I think he was an experienced drunk driver.

[Austin]

Yeah, well, they're British now.

[Jennifer]

Well, he was French.

[Austin]

Oh.

[Hasan]

Also not as much.

[Jennifer]

And now Princess Diana, the people's princess, dead.

[Austin]

She's no longer with us.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Hasan]

No, I thought that was an assassination.

[Jennifer]

Of course you did.

[Hasan]

Yeah. I still think it's assassination.

[Jennifer]

You do?

[Austin]

He also thinks Bush did 9, 11.

[Jennifer]

Oh, really?

[Hasan]

I mean, I think that the American intelligence community had a lot more information.

[Austin]

He thinks we deserved it, which I think is disgusting.

[Hasan]

Brave, brave. Take number two. No, I think that the American intelligence. I think the international intelligence community had a lot more pre. Warning about what potentially could have happened. And I mean that this stuff is not even in the realm of conspiracy at that point.

[Austin]

Right, right.

[Hasan]

It's just like they just kind of didn't take the necessary precautions.

[Jennifer]

Well, there was a memo, I believe it was Condoleezza Rice that read it, that said bin Laden determined to attack inside the United States. That. That was a complete, you know, security collapse on that. I believe that that's been corroborated.

[Hasan]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Austin]

I don't know how you read that.

[Jennifer]

What do you think about that one building like there were seven.

[Hasan]

Tower seven. I still fishy as hell. I still went to the Marriott Hotel.

[Jennifer]

No, it was some other building that.

[Hasan]

Like World Trade Tower.

[Jennifer]

Who was officed in there?

[Hasan]

I don't. I think it's like some documents were in there is what conspiracy theorists say. But like I think that that tower is falling. Has never had like a good answer.

[Caller 1]

I agree.

[Hasan]

And it's just something that we just kind of gave up on completely.

[Jennifer]

It's so weird because you've watched the video and it completely pancakes like a.

[Hasan]

Like a controlled demolition.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. Of like a Las Vegas hotel. Now that is weird as shit.

[Hasan]

Las Vegas Hotel. Stephen Paddock, another. Another conspiracy that. That the government just kind of gave up on addressing it all at all. Stephen Paddock, the shooter in the country club festival from Mandalay Bay. The Mandalay Bay shooter, yeah. That was also a very suspicious act of ultraviolence. There's a lot of unanswered questions there as well. And we just kind of moved on. This stuff happens all the time and we just kind of move on.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, I think that in that argument, I think where we are right now was incubated by Moving On. Obama didn't charge the black sites and Abu Ghraib, he didn't hold the George W. Bush administration accountable. And all of this stuff gets incubated anti black police over policing. And now all the white people are like, oh my God, a person got shot in the streets. And all the black Americans were like, this has been our experience the whole time.

[Hasan]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

And so I think us Moving on has incubated where we are now.

[Hasan]

Yeah. I mean Rahm Emanuel, I feel like. Has he been on the show?

[Jennifer]

Yeah, I got in a fight with him.

[Hasan]

Yeah. Of course, that's unsurprising. But Rahm Emanuel had to resign in disgrace because of the torture of Laquan McDonald in Chicago in one of these black sites that the Chicago Police Department was operating. Like they took the CIA's methods of having like tortured black site facilities where they could like disappear people and started using it at the domestic level. And we've just, I guess forgotten about it. Cuz now he has ambitions for higher office. And it's like Romney, there's a reason why you were the Japanese ambassador. Like they sent you on that cushy gig far away from America because you had fucked up. And this is before we even talk about his. That was his fuck ups as the mayor of Chicago. Before that, his fuck ups in the Obama administration led to a massive sea of red wave Picks that came under the Obama administration when Obama came in with the blue supermajority, like the actual super majority, which we probably will never see that ever again. So, you know, how are we forgetting about this?

[Jennifer]

We do. That's what we do as a nation.

[Hasan]

We just forgive amnesia.

[Jennifer]

You know what? I've had it with tardiness.

[Hasan]

Oh.

[Jennifer]

So listener, we were supposed to start the podcast promptly.

[Austin]

I'm so sorry.

[Jennifer]

And then the guests and their producer March, who I believe is innocent.

[Pumps]

March is.

[Hasan]

He's never innocent.

[Jennifer]

I believe March is innocent.

[Pumps]

I believe he is.

[Jennifer]

They start messaging that they're late.

[Austin]

I messaged. They would have never said a word. He would have never said a word.

[Hasan]

That's true.

[Austin]

He would have just showed up and been like, this is the time now.

[Jennifer]

To talk about this. Let me ask, does it cause you anxiety when you're late?

[Austin]

Well, when you texted me selfish.

[Jennifer]

That was a good takedown.

[Austin]

It was a good takedown.

[Jennifer]

Let's see exactly what that was.

[Austin]

You said. Selfish, self indulging millennials.

[Jennifer]

Incompetent self indulged millennials is what I refer to.

[Austin]

Incompetent self indulged millennials. I actually physically started sweating. I was in the back of my Uber and I was like, sir, could you please drive faster?

[Jennifer]

Mother is very angry.

[Austin]

Please. Mother's very angry. And then I was like. I couldn't tell. I was like, oh, maybe she's joking. But I was like. It felt a little serious. I was like, I need to maybe ask her if she wants a coffee or something.

[Jennifer]

I did.

[Hasan]

I did.

[Austin]

And I was like, trying to, like, you know, pass the time and maybe not have you look at the clock. And I don't know. I was sweating. He didn't give a shit. I know he didn't give a shit.

[Hasan]

I. We were locked in on the car. We actually. We were supposed to be here at 10:03, so it was going to be three minutes. Pretty close, which is like, fairly. I mean, it's fine.

[Austin]

My helicopter didn't show up, but unfortunately.

[Hasan]

Unfortunately, New York time, like New York traffic, doesn't operate that.

[Austin]

It's just a little bit more congested than usual.

[Hasan]

It is. Have you noticed that too?

[Austin]

Well, I've.

[Hasan]

No.

[Austin]

It's the snow on the side of the road. It kind of makes the roads a little smaller.

[Hasan]

Yeah. What's going on with that Zoron?

[Jennifer]

Did you see where Bill Ackman is blaming Zoron for the weather?

[Hasan]

Yeah, I. That's not surprising to me.

[Jennifer]

Here's my thing.

[Hasan]

New York Post has been doing that a lot.

[Jennifer]

Bill Ackman, like this guy, he's a billionaire.

[Hasan]

Right. Why hasn't he left New York?

[Jennifer]

It's unbelievable. Nobody has. Did you know the luxury real estate market has boomed since Zoron's victory?

[Hasan]

Steven Spielberg's coming out here.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Hasan]

He left LA to come out here to be in Memdanistan, you know, so. And I just. I find it very strange. I was looking forward to getting a brownstone from a family that was escaping. You know what I mean?

[Jennifer]

Right.

[Hasan]

I was just gonna enter the New York real estate market and. And now I can't. Because nobody's fucking leaving.

[Jennifer]

Let me ask you this. On a scale of 0 to 10, how jealous are you guys?

[Hasan]

Oh my God.

[Jennifer]

That I live in New York with Zoran Mamdani as mayor and you don't?

[Austin]

It's like.

[Hasan]

It's like everywhere. It's. Everything is collapsing in America in real time. And it's like you guys are just like having so much fun. You have competent governance. Like if it were up to me, obviously I would want Zoran to be a little bit more radical. But he's done a phenomenal job so far. And he's basically showing the rest of the world like no, you can do these things. You can just kind of do good things for your constituents. Things that you promised that you were going to do for them. They're actually very easy to do. Maybe not easy to do, but like if you have the willingness to follow through on your promises, you can accomplish them. And people really love that. Shocking. Very big surprise for me.

[Jennifer]

And he governs with the one, two punch. He does it and then victory laps. He does it and promotes it. Which Democrats do a terrible job at that. I mean what made me so mad is Biden does the infrastructure act and then all of these horrific bible thumper red state horrible politicians are then like, look at all the jobs I brought to my state while they.

[Hasan]

While they veto.

[Jennifer]

While they voted against it.

[Hasan]

Well, they voted against it.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Hasan]

Yeah. If it were up to me, and I said this at the time as well, this was one of the biggest problems I had with the Biden administration. This is pre October 7th, right? Pre October 6 actually. Cuz that's when he unveiled the right wing anti immigrant bill that he was. That was also a total insanity. But before that there were definitely a lot of accomplishments that he could point to Afghan withdrawal. There were some issues there. But at the end of the day it required tremendous bravery. I defend him on that. Overdose deaths decreased for the first time in 2024 under his leadership due to mass availability of Narcan. That was fantastic. No mention by the fucking administration at all. And I was so mad that they would just not come out and be like, this is what we're doing.

[Jennifer]

Victory lap.

[Hasan]

Yeah, we said that we would do this. This is what we're doing. So I think the problem with Biden, though, was that he was genuinely a carcass. So there's no way he was gonna be able to do that. But just like, I don't know, get Pete Buttigieg to be your comms guy, take him off the transportation sector.

[Pumps]

Use AI.

[Jennifer]

Trump's using AI. They're doing all these AI videos of him behind the desk. Have you seen it? With the finger?

[Austin]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, that's the thing, you know, there's this conspiracy theory that Biden was, like, replaced by some actor. Have you heard seen this?

[Hasan]

I have not, no. What kind of boomer stuff?

[Austin]

Wait, have you guys not seen this? Like, Biden wasn't real and he was. He was replaced by another Biden with a mask. And I'm like, if you're going to replace Biden with another person, why would you replace him with another demented dude?

[Hasan]

Yeah.

[Austin]

You know what I mean?

[Hasan]

Well, if it. Because he was like. It was too young, then all of a sudden.

[Austin]

I know, but, like, I don't know. I was like, if this. For this theory to work, like, what's the advantage of replacing him? Unless if not. I can't believe you guys haven't heard of this.

[Jennifer]

No, I haven't.

[Austin]

Part of X. Am I on?

[Jennifer]

Do you visit, like, these conspiracy sites?

[Austin]

No, I don't. It just, it. It gets pushed to me and I'm starting to believe it a little bit.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Austin]

To be honest with you.

[Jennifer]

All right, listen up, listener.

[Pumps]

The Trump administration has said that we cannot call them fascists. And the last time I checked, we still had a First Amendment.

[Jennifer]

So naturally, I've been busy writing a.

[Pumps]

Book called Not Today Fascist the Lies that Got Us Here and the Truth Truce that Will Reunite Us. My book will publish on October 6th, and if you really want to give the administration the bird, go over and pre order it wherever books are sold.

[Jennifer]

Okay, what do you, what do we think about Trump's assassination? Staged or not?

[Hasan]

Fake. I have it. I have the commemorative Zinton. No, of course.

[Austin]

Oh God.

[Jennifer]

It's the fight.

[Caller 1]

Fight.

[Pumps]

Fight.

[Hasan]

You think it's more like fake. I think it's fake too. You think it's fake? Okay, I didn't used to. I didn't used to, but now I do. I'm, I'm fully interested in.

[Austin]

I did.

[Jennifer]

Initially I thought it was fake. I was in Italy when it happened and the next day I was out and the Italians were like, jennifer, do you think it's a Lucas stage? And I'm like, oh, oh yeah.

[Hasan]

No one in Europe believes it, really.

[Jennifer]

They all think it's staged. And so then I get back home and we've been so propagandized you can't believe conspiracy theories. And it's worked to their benefit. But deep down I was like, oh my gosh. Well, I have this nephew that is in federal law enforcement and he said there's no fucking way that wasn't staged. Because there was one roof and as a federal, you would immediately secure that roof. Immediately. It's just impossible that the secret service, local police would not secure that roof. And then if you really start diving into it, the Trump's people allow the press to come instead of squishing them down if there's an active shooter. Right?

[Hasan]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

And then they lower the flag for the photo op. And I always thought it was sus.

[Austin]

Like they lowered the flag.

[Hasan]

Yeah, bro.

[Jennifer]

They lower the flag. Oh, they lower the flag. And then when he's saying, Hang on, hang on just a second, let me put my shoes on. This doesn't sound like somebody who's worried about just got their ear shot off.

[Hasan]

Fake. Totally fake. I'm on board. Yep, it's fake as hell. And then they find that the supposed shooter was actually in a like Blackrock ad or something many, many years prior. Yeah, that's true. That's real. Blackrock went to their school and they were doing some sort of initiative and he was film than it, but I think he's, I think he was an actor. I think they put him there. They already domed him. Loser. No real social media footprint. Like these are people that are the forgotten people. There's a, there's millions of them.

[Austin]

So what did they do with Him. They put him in jail, didn't they?

[Hasan]

No, they don't kill him. They domed him and then they put his body up.

[Austin]

Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.

[Hasan]

And then they were like, oh, my God, here's the shooter. We thankfully shot him. And it's like, no, there is zero percent chance that that shooter pulled off.

[Austin]

How do you. How did they get him to agree to it, do you think?

[Hasan]

Like, they didn't. They just. He's a loser. He was a. He was a total forgotten soul. That. And there are millions of them. And I think the CIA or the FBI was like, all right, yeah, this one.

[Jennifer]

But if it's the CIA or the FBI, that would have been under Biden's authority.

[Hasan]

Yeah, I think it was. It was. Well, there's still different ideological components within the CIA and the FBI as well. I mean, they're not all woke under the Biden administration and then magically turn into anti woke under the Trump administration. Or they could have hired, you know, paramilitaries. Could have been Israel. That's another, you know, foreign intervention. It's not a secret that Benjamin Netanyahu really wanted Trump to become president.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Hasan]

Even though Biden was eating his ass every day.

[Jennifer]

Oh, my God. He totally.

[Hasan]

It wasn't enough for him. So. I don't know. Could be. I like that. I'm going to. We should float that to Candace Owens. Make that a real thing. Yeah. Israel actually did the fake Trump. Yeah.

[Jennifer]

Okay, do you guys want to listen to voice memos from our listeners about their grievance?

[Austin]

I love your listeners. Your listener. You're very. You guys are very popular. I mean, you should know this. You're very cool. Every time. Every time I tell a gay man about that, I'm going to see Jen and beyond. I've had it. There's an audible gasp.

[Hasan]

Hell, yeah.

[Austin]

She's very popular. You need to start. You need to start doing appearances at gay bars. I want to be with you.

[Jennifer]

Yes. You know, I cut my teeth going out when I was 18 or 19 with gay men at gay bars. That was my. Because my choices were in Oklahoma when I went to college, I could hang out with the. My peers, the white women, and they wanted to go to Bible study. Well, I was an atheist.

[Austin]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

Or I could hang out with the gay men who had the same common enemy that I had. The trad wife. Bible study woman. Yeah. And so I hang out with gay men all the time.

[Hasan]

Yeah.

[Austin]

Well, they're just more fun. I go out with sometimes with my. Every once in A while. I'll go out with a straight friend and they're miserable.

[Hasan]

Oh, my God, here we go.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, Straight men.

[Austin]

Yes, they're miserable.

[Hasan]

You're miserable.

[Austin]

No, I'm not.

[Jennifer]

I have a depressed.

[Hasan]

No, you're depressed.

[Austin]

Everybody, like, they're trying to get pussy. You know what I mean?

[Hasan]

I don't even go out, so for me, it's like.

[Austin]

It's so combative. Everybody's trying to fight over the women that don't want them.

[Hasan]

Okay.

[Austin]

You know what I mean?

[Hasan]

Okay. He's also miserable, though, when we have, like, little gatherings with all of our friends because it's not a gay bar, he'll just, like, pout. He'll be like, why are we not at a gay bar? We've talked about this on the Fear Am podcast before.

[Austin]

I don't pout.

[Hasan]

But no, he does. And then people are like, austin, what's wrong? Are you okay? And he's like, this is not a gay bar.

[Austin]

It's boring. I'm boring. I'm bored. What are we going to like? Everybody sits around.

[Jennifer]

Gay bars are more fun.

[Austin]

They're more fun. They're more.

[Jennifer]

Did you see the DJ Diplo recently said he loves to DJ for gay men exclusively because they're more liberated. They're give a fuck. Meter's broken. It's just more fun and the energy is better.

[Austin]

Everybody's just, like, free. Like, I think, like, straight men are always putting up a facade and trying to be people that they're not really. It's true, though.

[Jennifer]

Present company included or excluded.

[Austin]

Wait, say what?

[Jennifer]

Present company included or excluded?

[Hasan]

Are you. Are you ripping on me? Oh, I'm putting this on.

[Austin]

No, he doesn't give it. He doesn't. He just doesn't have fun in any environment.

[Hasan]

That's true.

[Austin]

He's not at gay bars or straight bars.

[Hasan]

Yeah.

[Austin]

You know?

[Hasan]

Yeah. That's why I'm. I'm objective in my interpretation. And I read you to filth last time you tried to talk about this.

[Austin]

Yeah, I did.

[Hasan]

He wants to fuck. That's what it is. And when he goes to, like, a straight environment, he goes out.

[Austin]

Jennifer knows this.

[Hasan]

Yeah. He goes, yeah, yeah, shrinkage. He goes out, straight environment. Not enough twinks. Not enough fresh hot twinks for him. So he just gets upset. He's like, man, I don't like this.

[Austin]

I do. I like to go out and see attractive people. It's fun.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. I will say I've seen some footage of you at protests lately, and you seem very alive and like you're having.

[Hasan]

Yeah, it's my favorite thing because you.

[Jennifer]

Are fighting for something with total conviction, man.

[Pumps]

On the street.

[Jennifer]

I'm here for it.

[Hasan]

Yeah. No, that's what I like to do.

[Austin]

Yeah, I've been seeing. I've been seeing.

[Jennifer]

He's a fascist fighter.

[Austin]

He is a fascist fighter. I've seen some edits of him, thirst traps and whatever. And he keeps reposting them and they keep coming up on my feed and I'm like, on an airplane and it's just like this boom, boom, boom, boom.

[Hasan]

And I'm like, here's the thing.

[Austin]

Can you please stop reposting your own thirst traps?

[Hasan]

Here's the thing, okay? They can come after me for a million different reasons. They can call me, you know, anti Semite, terrorist, all this stuff. Radical communist, he wants to, you know, kill landlords, whatever, right? They can lie about all this stuff, but they can't say I'm ugly.

[Austin]

It's true.

[Hasan]

So I have to use whatever advantage I can get.

[Austin]

True.

[Hasan]

That's why, like, when people, when people are like, Hassan, don't you get annoyed that, like the New York Times or all these other, like, you know, major newspapers, like, when they talk about you, they kind of talk about you like a bimbo. They're like, oh, he's so hot. Over and over again. They don't talk about your ideas. And I'm like, listen, that's terrorism insurance. Okay, I will if, if they're gonna write. Yeah, that's what I call it. I. I do all these media hits not because, like, I wanna, you know, I'm really excited to go to the, you know, some times event. Right. I just, I do it because I know for a fact that the next week, Jewish Insider, New York Post, Fox News, and all these other, like, right wing pro Israel outlets are gonna be calling me a terrorist. So it softens that blow. It's the anti Semitism, anti Semitic terrorism insurance.

[Jennifer]

I like it. As my mother always told me, darlin, if you've got it, flaunt it.

[Austin]

Yeah, okay, that's true.

[Jennifer]

Kylie, who's our first caller?

[Caller 2]

Good morning, girls.

[Hasan]

Good morning.

[Caller 2]

I listen to your podcasts religiously every day. I get full body chills and I start screaming in my car when you guys get worked up and. Yeah, keep fighting the good fight. Anyway, I wanted to tell you this information, though. I have a feeling you've. You've probably heard whisperings and I was just listening to one of your more recent. I don't know if it was Ihip or I've had It. But you were talking about Lindsey Graham and one of you called him Lady Graham. Yeah, and Lindsey Graham actually has a nickname in the sex worker community. His name's Ladybug. And that's because he hires professional dominatrixes, pro doms, to be sissified, which means being belittled, called like a little sissy bitch to be eaten up. He hires women to call him an F. Slur and crawl on his knees and beg for it. But the reason why everyone his nickname is Ladybug is because he has all of these little red moles all over his body that look like ladybugs. So everyone in the dom community knows him well and they call him Ladybug. Part of what these men pay for is to be called, like, to be sissification is all about becoming like effeminate man or literally being dressed up like a woman and humiliated. His kink is humiliation. And I just thought you should know that. Maybe you've read about this on Reddit. I don't know if anyone's ever shared this information with you, but I know it to be a fact.

[Jennifer]

I'm shocked he's hiring women.

[Hasan]

Yeah, that's the heat. He's the shock. He does. I mean, he does have sex with men.

[Austin]

They call him Lady Jesus.

[Hasan]

I've read.

[Jennifer]

Right, so he has sex.

[Hasan]

Young men.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. And then he also hires women to call him a f. A G G.

[Hasan]

O T. Maybe that's like a contingency plan for him to be like, you see, I'm not gay. I just. That's why I hire all these ladies, you know, Maybe that's why he did it. Maybe that's why he's doing it. Cause like, yeah, it's the worst kept secret in dc.

[Austin]

It's the least. It's the worst kept secret. It's at least surprising. Look at him. He looks like a sissy.

[Jennifer]

Well, and he's always shit face drunk. He's always hammered, like, oh yeah, total alky.

[Pumps]

But I saw him recently in Israel.

[Jennifer]

And he did a photograph with like the head of Mossad and he posted it, like, so proud. And I thought they must have so much footage of you doing gay stuff.

[Pumps]

Like, it must be just safes full.

[Jennifer]

Of gay stuff with Lindsey Graham.

[Austin]

How do these people get honey potted like this? Like, what do they like? Come on, Lindsay, come suck it.

[Hasan]

Up. And looking at the Epstein file releases. They are horn dogs, all of them. They're creepy horny.

[Austin]

But like, do these people have no concept that everything that they write is out there forever?

[Jennifer]

I think that they think or did.

[Austin]

They just not have it?

[Jennifer]

And it's so normalized in their group. It's so flagrant and it's so normalized. And I also think they're both. If you think about the majority of the stuff that's been dripped this last time was after Jeffrey Epstein took a plea deal and everybody knew he was a pedophile, especially in those circles. And you have Howard Lutnick, who we refer to as Howard Nutlik's wife, emailing him saying, hey, our yacht is going to swing by your island. We are two families. We have a group of four boys, two teenage girls.

[Austin]

They have the ages of the children.

[Jennifer]

A mother tells a known convicted pedophile the ages of her daughters that are coming. And everybody in that whole thing is in the Epstein files.

[Hasan]

Yeah. No, you nailed it. It's because they know that there's no accountability coming and there isn't. They're right. They're kind of vindicated a little bit. Right? I mean, we know that these guys were directly involved in this elite pedophilic cabal and not a single punishment or even like a stern warning has been dished out to a single one of these people. Nellie Bowles, Bari Weiss's partner.

[Jennifer]

Yes.

[Hasan]

Just came out on the Free Press and was like, erm, a lot of people are calling me out for having coffee and going to Jeffrey Epstein's mansion. I'm a journalist, I should have gone to the mansion even more so I could have like pursued the story. And it's like, no, the reason why they don't have a problem with you going to the mansion is because you're the exact type of fake journalist that is glad handling and totally conniving and has no investment whatsoever in the profession and is simply doing it to defend billionaires. That's the entire purpose of the Free Press. That's why Bari Weiss was elevated to editor in chief of CBS News. When you know the ultra Zionist billionaire Larry Ellison purchased or David Ellison purchased CBS News with the express purpose of making it more pro Trump and making it more pro Israel than it already was. This is why these guys have no issues. That's the other side of the story as well. Like there's so many New York Times reporters that were directly engaging in catch and kill for Jeffrey Epstein. Like there are so many high ranking reporters at institutional papers, at legacy papers, legacy publishers that are like, hey, people are snooping around, you know, and they're just like emailing Jeffrey Epstein. It's mind boggling even they don't get punished for it.

[Jennifer]

It's crazy. But you know, Europe is starting to hammer down. I saw the leader of Poland was saying there's no question that this was a honey pot scheme and we're for the, for Russia. And he sent him likely Israel. Do you think it's only Israel?

[Hasan]

I think it's like for.

[Jennifer]

But what about all the emails with all the Russians there is.

[Hasan]

Well, this is pre2014 invasion. Like this is pre Crimean annexation. So like Russia was actually in a different, like it was not seen as this like feared, you know, Soviet era enemy at that point. Because there's a period of time after the dissolution of the ussr, major collapse of the Soviet bloc obviously. But there's a period of time in like from the late 90s to like the early 2010s where the relationship between Russia and all of the European partners and, and the United States of America was not as sour. It was not like they were not treated as like this total foreign adversary for. And in that moment, Jeffrey Epstein was trying to create more connections with Russia, which by the way is also deeply connected to Israel. Regardless, all the Russian oligarchs have dual passports. Israel is their entry into the global marketplace when Russia gets sanctioned. So you know, Russia has a deep tie, deeply held tie to Israel as well. But having said that, his relationship with Russia is marginal, dare I say inconsequential in comparison to the deeply held ties that Jeffrey Epstein has to the nation state of Israel and high ranking Israeli officials, including the former Prime Minister Ehud Barack.

[Jennifer]

That shit's crazy.

[Hasan]

There are thousands of emails.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Hasan]

With them talking back and forth about like bringing in Palantir, Peter Thiel's operation to Israel. 2013, they're having a conversation, Ehud Barack and Jeffrey Epstein are about, you know, this new surveillance technology called Palantir, this AI backed surveillance technology and how they should, you know, how they should bring into Israel. 2014, Palantir opens up shop in Israel. 2015, the Israeli government is using Palantir. Like it's, there's Israeli spyware that Jeffrey Epstein is selling to Mongolia and all these other places. Like there are periods of time where they're like basically running the government. So the, and, and then also the connections to the UAE as well. So there is a lot more connection to Israel than there is to Russia. And also on top of that, it kind of doesn't make any sense. Like it kind of destroys the Russiagate narrative from the first administration where it's like, okay, Trump is like Vladimir Putin, Vladimir Putin's butt buddy, Trump is being compromised by Vladimir Putin. Right. Okay, so does that mean that all of the high profile Democrats and Democratic Party boosters are also compromised by Russia then? Because they were compromised by Jeffrey Epstein. If Jeffrey Epstein is a Russian asset, then Bill Clinton is a Russian asset in the same way that Trump is. Doesn't make sense.

[Jennifer]

Right, right.

[Hasan]

So that's why I think the Russia thing is more so a deflection, because they don't want to talk about Israel.

[Jennifer]

Don't you think it's a narrative that Western media is able to coalesce around? Yeah, easier because it's like there's not only the history back to the USSR that Russia is our adversary to current. Yeah, it's an easier thing because you don't really hear the reporting about the former prime minister of Israel and there's like some really lurid, horrible, grotesque allegations about him with little girls.

[Hasan]

Yeah, there's little girls coming into the. I mean, there were girls coming in in 2016 when Ehud Barak was snapped. Coming out of the mansion that same day. There's a bunch of girls going into the house. I mean, I don't think they're talking about, you know, surveillance technology.

[Jennifer]

And, you know, there were no drag queens and no trans people, but two immigrants who for sure are criminals. Peter Till and Elon Musk are all over the Epstein files.

[Austin]

Yeah, no, of course. No. And I think there was a, there was a victim that was trans.

[Hasan]

Yeah, I think there, there was. Yeah.

[Austin]

Yeah. And see, but that was the, like, that's the thing is, like, there were no perpetrators that were.

[Hasan]

Yeah. And when, when she came out, when she came out and like actually talked about Jeffrey Epstein, they bullied her. They were like, he, she, like, they made, they made jokes.

[Austin]

That's funny.

[Hasan]

Yeah. And they ritualistically humiliated her for like trying to out this, this scheme at the time.

[Austin]

I've got a question for you guys. What do you make of the Clintons willing to just testify in public?

[Hasan]

I think it's mutually assured pedophilia destruction.

[Austin]

So you think that they're just going to admit to everything?

[Hasan]

No, I think that it'll be a controlled setting and they will not reveal.

[Austin]

Do you think that they're corroborating to do this publicly?

[Hasan]

I think that, well, Donald Trump came out yesterday and said, I love Bill. Yeah, I love Bill Clinton. I love Bill Clinton.

[Austin]

He's barely doing notice.

[Jennifer]

He provides cover for that. Like Elon Musk, I wish him well. After they had their big breakup, Elon outed him On Twitter, he also said about Ghislaine Maxwell, I wish her well. You just recently said the cleanse. I like them. I wish them well. So that's always a tell whenever you hear Donald Trump, the most petty, vindictive, old queen on the planet.

[Austin]

Yes, yes.

[Jennifer]

I mean, total queen. And then he does not have resentment towards them. It's always a tell when he's offering these nefarious people cover.

[Hasan]

He has more resentment for, like, the average female reporter in the press pool than he does for, like, these supposed enemies that he's had.

[Jennifer]

Or the shooter. The shooter of the. You know, this is the guy.

[Hasan]

Fake shooter.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, the fake shooter.

[Austin]

I know this is way old, but do you think he sucked off Bill Clinton?

[Jennifer]

I'll tell you what, that. The blood. That, to me, this shows you how the Democratic Party cannot fight this game.

[Hasan]

Oh, yeah.

[Jennifer]

Because they should be screaming at the top of their lungs over and over, who blew Trump? I mean, who did Trump give a blow job to? It's here in the ebbs. If there were anything remotely. They just need to pick, like, three scandals and just drive them over and over and over.

[Hasan]

Even if it's not like. Even if it's not substantiated. Like, it's not like the Republicans would ever let that go because we never let that good crisis go away.

[Jennifer]

And we should not let this blowjob go away.

[Austin]

That's what I'm saying. They kind of had it going with Vance fucking the couch a little bit.

[Jennifer]

Totally.

[Hasan]

They didn't even with that.

[Austin]

Oh, they did.

[Hasan]

That's the thing.

[Jennifer]

That's the Internet.

[Hasan]

That was a random left Twitter user who, like, made a fake. Well, not fake. It was real. It's in the book Hillbilly Elegy excerpt that, like, went super viral. And then it became, like a news story in and of its.

[Austin]

They need to be talking about it.

[Jennifer]

A lot more, but they won't because. And it would help them so much with all of the centrist Democrats who are like, oh, we can't talk about culture wars. We need to move to the center. If they go on offense and go. They're the ones that are closeted here. That's why they talk about gay people all the time. That's why they're obsessed with genitalia because they're so sexually suppressed. And it turns out Trump's blowing people. And we know he knows how to do it because we saw on the campaign trail an amazing familiarity with him trying to blow off a microphone.

[Austin]

Microphone, yes.

[Jennifer]

You know, and they should drive it over and over and over again.

[Hasan]

Even his, the, the Trump double check called the double date.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Hasan]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

And he's always talking about how hot he thinks men are.

[Austin]

I know.

[Hasan]

Yeah. I always, yeah, I always say he's, he's a bisexual or a biromantic, asexual. Like he does not have sex to, to, you know, there's no way to fulfill a sexual desire. He has sex for power. That's why he's, you know, doing like sexual assaults.

[Jennifer]

No.

[Hasan]

What?

[Jennifer]

Absolutely. I don't think they fucked in years.

[Austin]

You think they ever fucked? Maybe a couple times.

[Hasan]

That's another crazy thing. Melania was introduced to Donald Trump through Jeffrey Epstein.

[Austin]

Oh my God.

[Hasan]

This was a suspicion that we all had.

[Austin]

Oh, it was confirmed in the file.

[Hasan]

It's confirmed in the file? Yeah, it's there. It's crazy. How are the Democrats not using this? Well, I know how. Because they also are a part of the Epstein stuff. And I think for a lot of Democrats their job is to be controlled opposition. Because right now we're talking about special elections taking place all around the country. Yesterday in the 11th district in New Jersey, there was massively consequential congressional race that took place in the Democratic Party primary. And the Bernie AOC candidate actually pulled off a tremendous upset. The Essex County Democrats had a different pick, the establishment Democrats had a different pick and AIPAC had a different pick. And all of these different forces coalesced and through the ashes of that a real fighter came out and took on an upset victory. I don't want to mess up the name here, but I'm going to pull it. Yeah, this just happened. This happened last night. Now I think they're still, they're still counting the votes. This is a super close, super close race from what I understand. I don't know if like it's been finalized yet, But New Jersey 11, Steve Kernacki, everyone's favorite, khaki wearing Steve Kornacki. Right. What's happening In New Jersey 11 tonight feels momentous. The state has long been dominated by a throwback political culture, particularly on the Democratic side. But there has been an upheaval in the last few years as the party's increasingly activist professional class base has been in revolt in Essex County. The biggest part of the district having the support of party leaders was for generations practically tantamount to victory in a primary. But tonight the Essex Organization backed candidate is running third in the county, far behind the AOC Sanders backed progressive insurgent Analilia Mejia, who is currently leading the district wide and has no support from any of its county organizations. And not only that, but also AIPAC was taking out the main make it or break it former congressperson, who, again, former congressperson in a state like New Jersey, establishment Democrats are supposed to win in Essex county. And Mejia is. Is doing tremendous. Is like, most likely going to win. And it was such a close race that the decision desk actually projected the wrong winner initially. So why am I saying all this? Because there's obviously a lot of appetite for fighters, appetite for, you know, Bernie style politics in the Democratic Party's base of support, and yet the establishment Democrats are pushing that aside every step of the way.

[Austin]

Yes.

[Hasan]

This, along with Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries capitulations to the Trump administration when they have tremendous momentum behind them leads me to believe that the establishment Democrats are more predisposed and more focused on maintaining business as usual politics and trying to stop the left flank from seizing control of the Democratic Party, even though the wishes of the base is clearly with the left flank.

[Jennifer]

Completely agree. In the Venn diagram of corporate Dems and maga, they have a lot more in common than the people that you're talking about.

[Austin]

It's taken me a few election cycles to figure this out, but we like.

[Jennifer]

To live out together. We were at the DNC together.

[Hasan]

No, you were. Your, your, your, your radicalization was much faster than his.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, yeah. Have a quick study.

[Hasan]

Yes. For him. I've been telling this to him for years and he's like, no, no, no, no.

[Austin]

But it started to click with me because I'm like, okay. Over and over again, we lose to a fucking idiot. We lose to a fucking idiot. And I'm like, well, why can't they do this? Why can't they do this? These policies are so popular. And then it occurred to me, well, they have the same corporate masters and donors that the Republican Party does. And you know what irritates me? And one of the messages that I wish the Democratic Party would say, cause the Republicans are like, government. Government's bad. Government's bad. And I wish the Democratic Party could say, government's good. No, government is good. The reason when government fails you, it's because the corporate private interests get involved and corrupt it. That's when government fails you. But the Democratic Party cannot say that.

[Jennifer]

No.

[Austin]

Because they are corrupted by the same donors and same private interests. Government is great. Government's amazing.

[Jennifer]

So proud of you.

[Austin]

Government's amazing.

[Jennifer]

But this is.

[Hasan]

Thank you.

[Austin]

This is a big moment.

[Hasan]

I'm so proud.

[Austin]

This has been One of my talking.

[Hasan]

Points, you don't understand recently, like, you. When you met him, he was already, like, halfway there. When I met him, he was all over the place.

[Austin]

And I relapse sometimes. Like, when somebody's really hot and they're charismatic, I start to be like, oh, but.

[Hasan]

But you haven't bit. You haven't bid on the Gavin Newsom bait.

[Austin]

I have not. In fact, I did. Well, I did originally.

[Hasan]

And then I.

[Austin]

And then I. And then I took. And then I realized then I saw multiple, like, you know, collaborations with Shapiro. The Ben Shapiro thing, it set me.

[Jennifer]

Over the political suicide.

[Austin]

Suicide Charlie Kirk. What the fuck?

[Hasan]

Totally telling Charlie Kirk that your son is a major Charlie Kirk fan dog. You are admitting that you have failed as a parent at that point.

[Austin]

He also won't sit down with you.

[Hasan]

And it. Oh, yeah, he's off.

[Austin]

It pisses me off because I'm like, you will sit down with Ben fucking Shapiro and you won't even sit down with a member. A left part, the far left part.

[Jennifer]

Of your own part. That drives me crazy about corporate Democrats. They want to learn how to talk to Republicans. That's so wrong. You need to learn how to beat them. That's the difference. Republicans focus on how do we beat the fucking libs. We hate them. We hate their pronouns. We hate that they don't have shame when they have sex. We hate their drag queens. We fucking hate them. And the Democrats ethos and warrior ideology would be, we want to know how to beat you. We don't want to know how to talk to you. Yeah, the 1 in 10 people that went from the triple Trump, that went from. What they're looking for is authenticity and not pick me. Politicians that don't, you know, that wade out into the water and like, well, I don't want to piss off the left, and I want to appear more centrist.

[Austin]

That's. That's piss. It pisses me off because inherently, because the right has gone so far to the right, the middle is now shifted to the right.

[Hasan]

Yep.

[Austin]

You know what I mean? So inherently, when you are. If you're sitting here being like, oh, we need to be more moderate or move towards the middle. No, you're not moving towards the middle. You're moving to the right is what you're doing. Because the new middle is over here. You know what I mean?

[Hasan]

That's.

[Austin]

It doesn't. It pisses me off when I hear these motherfuckers saying, well, you know, the average American wants something more moderate. And I am so incensed. By watching.

[Hasan]

Yeah. The average American is always worried about United Health Care profits. That's why they're like, oh, I really. Oh, I can't have free health care. Sorry. I really want to make sure United Healthcare is turning profit this year.

[Jennifer]

Right. I want to make sure Palantir is funded.

[Hasan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jennifer]

I want to make sure AI comes to take our jobs, but we blame immigrants.

[Hasan]

Also, our electricity cost is skyrocketed because we're subsidizing the data set.

[Austin]

You know what?

[Jennifer]

Also, let's take another caller.

[Austin]

Oh, yes.

[Caller 1]

All right.

[Jennifer]

Okay.

[Caller 1]

Well, first of all, I have with y' all because it took me 20 minutes to figure out where to leave you a voicemail. And quite honestly, I don't even know if this is the right place. It might not be, but I'm going with it because it's the only place I got. So there you go. What I've had it with is assholes, and specifically all of the assholes in the world that make it so we have to have passwords and third party verification and text messages for the passwords to verify the password and different passwords and I gotta change my fucking password. The hours of my life that I will never get back because of passwords are fucking stupid. It's just stupid. I can't just enter a password. You got to text my phone to use the password. Or you can email me that, but it's the wrong email that I don't even have anymore because you know why somebody fucked it up. The assholes. So I had to get a new email. So that email doesn't even work. So, yeah, that. That's what I've had. I've had it with passwords and verifying passwords, and more than anything, I've just had it with assholes in general.

[Jennifer]

Have you had it with assholes?

[Austin]

Well, I have to say, I think that in a data breach, this caller's the first to go. Like, she's.

[Hasan]

Unfortunately, she's got third party very.

[Austin]

I know she does, but she's had it with it and she will do everything to avoid it. She is the stereotypical one password for everything user. And I'll be honest with you, I've also had it, but I. It's a necessary evil.

[Hasan]

Yeah, no, I've been on the two factor authentication, third party verification stuff for many, many years. Because, like when. When you start streaming on Twitch. Yeah, the people that she was referring to as assholes, they're all over that. Yeah, all the nerds that like, all the comp sign nerds. Love watching Twitch. And they love hacking. Yeah, yeah. I've learned about, you know, sim swiping.

[Austin]

Yeah.

[Hasan]

And the ways in which. The ways in which these guys will, like, hack your phone. The social engineering that takes place. I had to get all of my, you know, all of my barricaded.

[Austin]

We've had it with this collar. We've had it with.

[Jennifer]

Let me ask you this. When she said, I've had it with.

[Hasan]

Yeah.

[Austin]

What is she? Is she.

[Jennifer]

What did you. What was your initial gut reaction to that as a gay man?

[Austin]

Oh, like, oh, you know, so interesting. You know what? What I actually wasn't thinking about.

[Jennifer]

Your mind wasn't in the gutter.

[Austin]

No, it wasn't in the gutter.

[Jennifer]

After all of this political.

[Austin]

I don't. When you put ass in front of hole, I don't think about that one. When you. If you just said, I've had it with holes, I would think about an. But I wouldn't think about an. Unless you were to specifically articulate that you were talking about that. Because I don't think. I'm not.

[Hasan]

My mind is in the game. He can't even. He can't even think of having it with. He wants to have more of the ass.

[Caller 1]

Yeah.

[Austin]

I, I can't even confirm. Yeah. If she is a straight woman, I could see being. Having it with straight men's buttholes, but not gay men's.

[Jennifer]

I don't know about you guys, But.

[Pumps]

I think GLP1s are just amazing. Every time I look over at my beautiful co host pumps, I just marvel at how she has become the most gorgeous version of herself with the help of GLP1s. And I also love how open she is about it. Taking away the shame and normalizing that. It's completely okay to use GLP1s to become the very best you can. Ro is who she's partnered with. And Roe offers the first FDA approved GLP1 pill for weight loss at the lowest cost around. The new GLP1 pill has the same weight loss ingredient as the shot. Impacts comparable results to the shot. It can help patients lose 14% of their body weight in a year on average. That's one daily pill for fewer cravings and filling fuller with an innovative new formula clinically proven to maximize weight loss. Go to RO Co Hadit to see if you're eligible for the new GLP1 pill on RO. That's RO CO hadit to get started on RO. Go to RO CO Safety for boxed warning and full safety information about GLP1 medications based on study in non diabetics with obesity or overweight, plus a weight related condition with diet and exercise.

[Jennifer]

Okay, let me ask you this. Let's say that Gavin Newsom becomes the nominee. That we make it through midterms.

[Hasan]

Devastating.

[Jennifer]

Do you vote for him over J.D. vance?

[Hasan]

I don't know.

[Austin]

God damn it. I'd probably be at the fucking DNC. I know.

[Jennifer]

Oh, 100%. I would be too.

[Hasan]

But.

[Austin]

But I would. This is what I hope. I hope if for some reason, but I actually don't. I think he's really shot himself in the foot recently. What I hope if Gavin Newsom were to ever become some sort of nominee, which I'm not rooting for, by the.

[Jennifer]

Way, even though he's easy on the.

[Austin]

Eyeballs, he's very attractive. But I think that because he's such a career, like, career politician, he's such.

[Jennifer]

A thirst trap for the Oval.

[Austin]

I know, but like, why? Like, to me, I'm like, my hope is that, like, maybe he could be a blank canvas and he would just.

[Hasan]

Be like, this is you relapsing.

[Austin]

No, I'm not relapsing my hope. This is my hope. But this is if he becomes an Omni.

[Hasan]

But I'm. Who has controlled the Democratic stronghold of California Iron Fist and the veto pen is going to magically.

[Austin]

I'm not saying I think It's a Social Democrat. I just said that would be my hope. But I'm also not. This is not my.

[Hasan]

At this point, I'm extraordinarily selling it to yourself already.

[Austin]

Extraordinarily disappointed. And who do you vote for?

[Jennifer]

J.D. vance or Gavin Newsom?

[Austin]

Well, I'd have to vote for Gavin Newsom.

[Jennifer]

I wouldn't blame. What about you, Hasan?

[Hasan]

I'd probably both third party.

[Jennifer]

You would?

[Hasan]

Oh, yeah. I mean, at that point, it doesn't even matter. Like, because my policy on this is the same as, like, my refusal to endorse Kamala Harris. The reason why I did not endorse Kamala Harris was because she did things that were not only unproductive but also unconscionable. But. And I still stand on that. I still talk about it all the time because people constantly bring it up. They're like, you know, we didn't sufficiently promote Kamala Harris. You're the reason why she lost. And I'm like, I am incapable. There is no singular force in this country that is capable of making or breaking an election. And if that was real, then it is the most idiotic thing not to listen to my demands. But everybody knows that that's not real. Right? If I had this singular force to be able to make Kamala Harris the president, then Kamala Harris should be coming to me every day and being like, let me do a collab with you, please.

[Jennifer]

Totally.

[Hasan]

That's not the case, of course, and they know it. That's why they didn't do it. But the campaigns are always responsible for whether or not they are able to win the crowds, win the population over and combat against the couch, not necessarily even against the Republican Party, but usually you're fighting against the couch, people who just don't go out and vote. And for me, the way I see it is if the Democratic establishment makes this decision one more time, just as they did with Hillary Clinton, just as they did with Kamala Harris, and in some ways, just as they did with Joe Biden as well, which led to Trump, too, then they just don't care. And there's not much I can.

[Jennifer]

Let me tell you something. I agree with everything you say, but as a person who lived in a red state for 50 years, I would crawl through 10ft of concrete to vote for Gavin Newsom, even though I think he's duplicitous, a hypocrite, a thirst trap, hungry for power. All of the things that you say and harms the Democratic Party and sets the psychological soil to be More prey to fascism. All of that I agree with. But there are so many young, queer, black, brown, marginalized people in red states. And even though this corporate Democrat is, you see it in a long term game, in the short term game, a President Newsom over a President J.D. vance means that these people have some protection because these red states, like here's what has happened in red states. The Democratic party abandoned the 50 state strategy. So you have Republicans or a Republican that switches party as a dim and their goal is to out crazy each other. So in Oklahoma we have like zero Muslim population, but we have banned Sharia law like four times. You have a guy that's running for governor right now that's so against, against transgender people that he has a commercial where there's a banana and he slices it with a knife like, like that. Somehow people are going to start whacking wieners off at school in Oklahoma City public schools where they just put the Trump bibles in them. So you have this people out craze each other. And these state governments are so unhinged.

[Pumps]

When you live in California, you lose.

[Jennifer]

Or New York, where I live now, you lose touch even before Trump of how diabolical these unhinged right wingers are. And I agree with you. I think Gavin Newsom has committed political suicide. I think Kamala started off her campaign well and she should have stayed to the left and leaned into it. They all thought she was liberal anyway, you know, so why not just lean into it? But I would enthusiastically crawl through 10ft of concrete for all of the marginalized people.

[Hasan]

Do you feel like the Democrats know that and that's why they get away with, with their inepties 100%. That's what I mean.

[Austin]

Yeah.

[Hasan]

So I'm like, I don't even entertain that stuff, especially this far out from an election. But even in the primary season, that's immediately the conversation is like, well, whoever is the candidate, you're gonna vote for them. Right? And you know what's really indecent about that too? They never return the favor for left flank candidates because no one ever made hay about Bernie Sanders potentially becoming the candidate. And all of the articles that came out about how Trump might be more preferable to Bernie Sanders, cuz they were writing those liberals were writing those articles talking about how, you know, the head of Goldman Sachs who was like, I'm a lifetime Democratic Party voter. I think, you know, Donald Trump is better than Bernie Sanders.

[Austin]

I know several people personally that went on that Bernie Sanders to Trump pipeline.

[Jennifer]

No, it's a Real thing.

[Austin]

It's a crazy thing because these, you know, Bernie appealed to the anger of these young people that couldn't, you know, they couldn't afford, you know, the cost of living, healthcare, everything like that. He appealed to them just like Trump does. But obviously Trump's solutions are, you know, blame it on the immigrants, the trans people and everything like that. But it's crazy to me that these people exist.

[Jennifer]

I'll tell you what's really started to change me a lot is when Zoron, who incredible candidate, laser focused on affordability, laser focused on universal human rights, did not have to throw one fucking group under the bus. I've had Cory Booker on my podcast, he talks about, we've got to get rid of corporate money. We've got to get rid of money. Zoron did all of that. And, you know, Hakeem Daylight and a dollar short to endorse Chuckles never endorsed. And then Cory Booker never endorsed. And the way he was treated by the Democratic establishment is so appalling to me. It just, it really opened up my eyes because I'm like, this is the new shiny object right now in the Democratic Party. He has a formula. He has it, he has the movement. He took on billionaires, he took on the Democratic establishment, and he kicked their fucking ass and didn't take one corporate dime. And the corporate Democrats, like, trying to distance themselves. I was like, oh, they are. They really are magalite. They really are.

[Hasan]

They didn't just distance themselves. There were people that distanced themselves and then there were people that were attacking Zoron in the most Islamophobia with the most, like Kirsten Gillibrand coming out and being like, zoron is a jihadist who wants to kill all Jews. Yeah, that was insane. That's like, that Trump doesn't say about Zor. Trump now loves Zoran. But like, even before, like, the fact that there were establishment Democrats that were more Islamophobic towards Zoramdani than the president, who is the top Islamophobe, was mind boggling to me. It was yet another moment of indication, though. So for me, it's like, I think these guys are zealots. The establishment Democrats are zealots. They have this defense of liberalism that they will not shake off, that they think they will be able to go back to business as usual politics no matter what. And even if it doesn't happen, even if we do turn fascist, they'll still hold their cushy positions and they'll be, you know, they'll be complacent. And they'll be fine. And that's what I'm terrified of. And that's what I'm very frustrated about. And I think a big part of that, a big part of that argument does revolve around harm reduction voting, because harm reduction voting is correct. It's right. In theory, it is correct. But harm reduction voting does not actually lead to Democrats winning decisively. And it certainly does not force them to legislate appropriately when they are in power to make sure that they're following on their agenda and that they never have an incompetent fascist win office ever again. That's precisely the reason why I try to, to stay away from harm reduction narratives to the best of my ability, because that is the reason why Democratic complacency is calcified in this country.

[Jennifer]

I agree.

[Austin]

I agree. And I hope that during the primary that we are able to find a more progressive candidate that will run as fearlessly as Zoran Mondami in New York.

[Jennifer]

I agree. All right. Any last grievances that you would like to share with the I've had it listeners?

[Austin]

What is it with Bluetooth connections in the car? You know what I mean? Oh, yeah, it's like, hello. Yeah, that's like the car and the phone act like they've never met each other, but they've done this connection 20 or 30 times.

[Hasan]

Yeah, I like that.

[Austin]

And I gotta.

[Hasan]

Yeah, that's a good one.

[Austin]

I gotta pull into the parking lot, I gotta get out of the car. I gotta act like I've, you know, met the car again and the Bluetooth's not working. Then I gotta sit there silently, maybe put the phone in the cup holder, use it as a speaker. I've had it.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, I've also had it with iPhone updates.

[Austin]

Yes.

[Hasan]

It's all over it. The new Liquid S. Oh my God, the new liquid iOS is so bad.

[Austin]

I couldn't figure out how to airdrop something yesterday. And I was next to an 80 year old woman who's like, how do you not know that?

[Jennifer]

I think it's a group of. What did I call you guys? Self indulgent millennials. Yes, I think it's a group of self indulgent millennials that sit around a table and say, okay, I have great idea for some new updates. And they over complicate everything with a lot of corporate speak. All right, listen, I think that's all we have.

[Austin]

Yes.

[Jennifer]

For today.

[Austin]

Thank you for having us.

[Jennifer]

Yes. I will be on fear. And that's right.

[Austin]

Back to back, Back to back.

[Hasan]

All right, let's go.

[Austin]

We're getting every minute out of you that we can.

[Jennifer]

All right, bye. Listen, I'll tell you what I've had it with.

[Pumps]
