Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan launch the episode with their signature high-energy banter, emphasizing their determination to stay loud, positive, and resilient. They declare their intent to "keep ripping it" without pre-surrendering to negativity, setting the tone for an unapologetically candid and humorous discussion.

Jennifer [00:08]: "I'm not going to be sad anymore. I'm not going to pre-surrender to this stuff. Let's just keep ripping it, right?"

Angie [00:46]: "I've had sex with people that I communicated with less. Fuck. I've had three kids with somebody. I talked to less than this person."

Jennifer echoes Angie's sentiments, relating it to her interior design career where she prefers minimal communication, focusing solely on the aesthetic outcomes rather than the detailed processes behind them.

Jennifer [04:15]: "I just decide, look, I want it to look pretty. You work out all the mechanics of all of this. I don't need a blow by blow of what you're doing."

3. Battling Stupidity and Political Rants (05:00 - 09:08)

Jennifer shifts the conversation to address what she's "had it with"—stupidity, particularly in the political realm. She criticizes MAGA supporters and those spreading misinformation, expressing frustration over incorrect claims, such as miscounting the presidency number.

Angie supports Jennifer's viewpoint, highlighting the irony of Republicans branding Democrats as elitist while promoting misleading narratives.

Angie [08:22]: "Democrats don't say, oh, we can't be so smart. We can't be elitist. I'm going to say, you're goddamn right I'm an elitist."

Transcript

[Jennifer]

So are we supposed to start the podcast? Ready?

[Angie]

1, 2, 3.

[Jennifer]

Patriots gay trio it. We're going to be loud. I'm not going to be sad anymore. I'm not going to pre surrender to this stuff. Let's just keep ripping it, right?

[Angie]

We got to stick together. We got to move forward. No pre surrender here. We've got the blue tipped hawk.

[Jennifer]

Blue winged hawk. But whatever, whatever.

[Angie]

Cassie, Jessica.

[Jennifer]

We have a bird.

[Angie]

We have a bird.

[Jennifer]

That's what matters. And the bird can change, right?

[Angie]

I might do a call the bird.

[Jennifer]

We can change the bird. We can do whatever we want to do.

[Angie]

That's right, we can.

[Jennifer]

Because we're not pre surrendering.

[Angie]

No. Absolutely not.

[Jennifer]

What have you had it with?

[Angie]

Okay, what I've had it with is over communication. And I know we've touched on this before, but this is so real. So my Christmas light guy, I've had three in person meetings. I've had five telephone calls, I've had texts. Now I'm hiding in my house when he comes over. I have had sex with people that I communicated with less. Fuck. I've had three kids with somebody. I talked to less than this person.

[Jennifer]

Wait, wait, wait. I have to push back there. Your husband was a yak mouth the end. All yak, right?

[Angie]

But I completely ignored it, right? I just totally ignored. This person is demanding answers and I'm like, we're not cracking the atom. I just want the Christmas lights on my house. So last night, half. Okay, first of all, I want to say I'm a hypocrite because my Christmas lights went up this weekend. They're on my house before Thanksgiving. Before Thanksgiving. I fucking suck, right? I own it, right? But I noticed half of my Christmas lights went off after a while. And part of me didn't even want to tell him because I just don't want to have the communication. But I broke down and I did it. And you know how many conversations we've had via text just this morning? 7. Just so many questions. And I'm like, here's the deal. My lights are white. I want you to plug them in. I want them to be on a timer. I want them to work. That's it. That's the list. I don't want any grand, like, you know, sleigh bells coming down my chimney. Nothing. I just want that and I can't have it. And now I'm in a position where I have a full blown relationship with my Christmas light person. So yesterday I'm driving into my neighborhood and the neighbor that I got the Christmas light person for I rolled down the window and window. And I'm like, why do you hate me so much? And he's like, what are you talking about? And I go, I'm using your Christmas lights guy. And he goes, oh my God, my wife was going to call you. I mean, he is just on you, on you, on you. I was like, I know you can't get away from it. I mean, it is the biggest over communication. And I've had it with over communication, especially about something that just doesn't take a lot of communication.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, I really am trying to talk to people less.

[Angie]

Right.

[Jennifer]

I'm trying to have less people in my life. I'm trying to limit interactions and no, this drives me insane. In my interior design career, I'll go to job sites and basically they bake the cake, I put the icing on it. They want to talk to me about the cake baking portion of the construction of the house. I'm not an expertise in that field. I know enough to be dangerous. But I just decide, look, I want it to look pretty. You work out all the mechanics of all of this. I don't need a blow by blow of what you're doing. I don't want to see your ass crack. Get your cigarette out of your fucking mouth while you're talking to me. I've had it. Stop it. Quit hiking up your pants going, hey, can you come here? And they hike it up, cigarette hanging out of the mouth. It's just, it's enough.

[Angie]

It's enough.

[Jennifer]

Enough. I'm with you. I don't want to communicate with people. I want to work smarter, not harder. I want people to do what I hire them to do with little communication as possible involved in that.

[Angie]

Especially when the directions are as clear as the nose on my face. I just, I don't know why we have to go so many details on a. On a subject I can't add to. I have no help. Just like, I mean, you know enough to be dangerous about building a house. I don't know shit about Christmas lights. I know they're on a timer. You plug them in, that's it. Why is my input necessary?

[Jennifer]

I mean, I think maybe what you do in this situation is just start. I mean, just start, counter, just start responding. So what kind of clamps are you going to use? Why are you going to use those clamps? Why do you think? Do you think you screwed up the lights? Do you think that was part of the installation that made half of them go out? Or do you think that's a light defect. Do you think the lights were made in China or the United States of America? What do you think about trade policy with the United States and China? What do you think about that? Are you a Trumper? Do you think Trump's going to fix it? Do you think he had something to do with these lights? Or do you think it's the deep state?

[Angie]

Right?

[Jennifer]

And then just keep going. I mean, and just say, look, buddy, I got all day. You want to be a guest on I've had it podcast? Let's do a whole episode about installing Christmas lights. You win. I'm not surrendering to fascism, but I'm surrendering to you. Let's talk about it all day. I got nothing but time.

[Angie]

Buddy, that might be the best idea I've ever heard. Yeah, maybe then he'd run away and hide from me.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. All right, Let me tell you what I've had it with. I've had it with stupid people.

[Angie]

Right?

[Jennifer]

As evidenced by the example you just gave. But also, I noticed on Instagram that there was a MAGA person celebrating the results of the November 5th election, and they wrote they had a sign up that said, congratulations, President Trump. Number 45. Number 46. Number 47. Here's the thing. He's not 46.

[Angie]

No, he's not.

[Jennifer]

Quit being stupid. Quit being a dumbass if you want to be a Trumper and just say, I don't give a. I'm all about having sex offenders in the cabinet. I'm all about having convicted felons run the country. I'm a nut. I'm completely crazy. I am unhinged. I am a psycho. Don't be a dumbass.

[Angie]

Right?

[Jennifer]

All right. Separate the stupidity from the crazy. I would respect if you just want to say, look, I'm a piece of. And I vote for pieces of, and I kind of want pieces of to run the country and blow it up. Because it. I'm only here once. Do it. Own it. Bask in that, Bathe in that. But don't try to hoodwink everybody that he was the 46th president of the United States. You're dealing with smart people here, right? At this podcast. We're smart people. We're not. That's not going to happen on our watch. I've just had it with that breathtaking stupidity just for the sake of being stupid. Much to my surprise, it had tens of thousands of likes from other stupid people. If you want to be a crazy Trumper, swing for the fences. Trump hump. Get your bible. Buy all of his Griff, get your sneakers on. You know, have Bible studies with the Trump Bible. Be unhinged as psycho, all get out, but don't sit around and be a stupid liar.

[Angie]

Yeah, you know what's interesting about that whole thing when you were saying that is Trumpers and Republicans say Democrats are elitists and they want to talk about how smart they are and it's like, but then you just serve up on a silver platter something that's so objectively stupid. It's like, of course we're going to fall into that trap because you make it too easy.

[Jennifer]

Well, I'm just going to say quit. Democrats don't say, oh, we can't be so smart. We can't be elitist. I'm going to say, you're goddamn right I'm an elitist. Because look at the people you put in charge. We value expertise. We want experts to be in charge of the departments, not sex offenders. Call us elitist, call us crazy, but whatever. I mean, you know, I mean, just like Democrats into this trap instead of saying, if valuing expertise and educated people makes me an elitist, then so what if caring about other people and poverty and human rights and racism and all of these things make me woke. Call me woke. Get over it. I mean, like, I'm not just going to sit around and be triggered by what a bunch of dumbasses say about me. Had it.

[Angie]

Had it.

[Jennifer]

Welcome to I've had it. I'm Jennifer.

[Angie]

I'm Angie.

[Jennifer]

Kathy. What's going on on the web?

[Kylie]

I've got a five star review for you.

[Jennifer]

Excellent.

[Kylie]

This one is from Shiny and Bright Shades for most, five stars and they write. Finally, a podcast with the same twisted sense of humor. I love unapologetic honesty, no sugar coating needed. Amazing, funny, creative too. Who sound like me and my best friend of 30 years. Fueled after two margaritas and nine shots of tequila, I can't help but turn to this escape, dealing with a divorce and managing my own chaotic house with kids and a man challenging two nine year old girls in the game of who is more dramatic, petty and immature. He always wins. But it's nice of him to include them and engage in play. So thank you for being not everyone's cup of tea and my favorite shot of tequila to laugh, giggle and smile. Do not stop and know I will not play pickleball with you two. But I will keep listening.

[Jennifer]

Is she saying that we sound like we're hammered? Yeah. Did she, did it sound like she's.

[Angie]

She thinks she'd have to be Drunk to talk like we do is what I took from us.

[Jennifer]

That's what I. It was a very sweet, very sweet, very sweet five star review which at this point I'm just going to say we've earned okay.

[Angie]

Especially the twisted.

[Jennifer]

We get up every day and humiliate ourselves right on the airwaves. So I'm going to say we've earned it at this point. But I believe the statement was they remind me of me and my best friend after a couple of margaritas and nine.

[Angie]

Yeah, nine tequila shots. That's what I took from it. Like you could only behave the way we behave if your shit face drunk.

[Jennifer]

You know what? I think they call that an underhanded compliment. To which I say thank you.

[Angie]

Yes, thank you very much. And I just want to say I feel for her on the out dramatic daughter because I have the single most dramatic human in the history of the world is my daughter. And it's trying at best.

[Jennifer]

Okay, who's next?

[Kylie]

Okay, I've got one more five star review from Salty Pants 2 titled it just gets Worse but. And they write I still have you too, lunatics. I've had it with just about everything this past week, but realize I can still come here and laugh. Kind of like misery loves company. So yeah, thanks for being my Ride or Die podcast during this hellscape period. Car. Fucking car.

[Jennifer]

I like it.

[Angie]

That's right.

[Jennifer]

That's right. We're not going to do this limp dick call that we did in the week after the election. That was pathetic.

[Angie]

We're back.

[Jennifer]

We're back.

[Angie]

We are fucking back.

[Jennifer]

If you want our first amendment, giddy up.

[Angie]

Come get it up cowboys.

[Jennifer]

Come get it. Until then, we're just going to keep fighting the good fight. There will be no pre surrender to that bullshit. You want to come take us off in bracelets? Do it.

[Angie]

Swing for the fences. Because you got to get both of these wrists together.

[Jennifer]

That's right.

[Angie]

Can't do it. I just want to bring up, Can I just bring up one thing?

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Angie]

So we had a live show in New York City this last weekend and Jennifer, I want to ask you, how many people did we meet that said in a shocked, shocked manner? Oh my gosh, you're actually pretty.

[Jennifer]

I'm glad that you brought this. Yes. Because I had forgotten. So listener, as you all know, you see us every day on Tick Tock, Instagram, YouTube, whatever. And I, I never really see in the comment sections of that like oh, you guys look great today. No, it might be like a cute outfit or too much Botox today, ladies. Or here's the old hags again. The Botox bimbos are back. Stuff like this. Right. Which we're fine. Whatever. I don't care. Great. For the engagement of the post, when we are live in person, we do this VIP meet and greet. I would say at least 85% of the people in the line walk up and their jaw hits the floor and they go, wow, you guys are actually really pretty. And it's. It's like. It's not like, oh, my God, you guys are so beautiful. It is shock and awe. Which leads us back to several things. Number one, we're horrifically untelogenic.

[Angie]

I mean, just like, maybe the worst case scenario. Tele.

[Jennifer]

Okay, so that's an option. Option number two is that Kylie and Seth have a hammered dog filter that they put on all of these viral videos, right. Where they're rage baiting all these people out there. And I think they must, like, make our Botox look worse. They make us look worse. Because the shock and awe when people see us in person, it makes me think, wow, we really look like on television.

[Angie]

Right? I mean, we. It. They kept coming, and it was like 10 in a row that said it. And Jennifer and I caught each other's eyes and we were like, we are un. Telegenic. Or Kylie is a complete.

[Jennifer]

I want to go with that. I want to go with. Kylie and Seth are sabotaging the podcast from within. They are the enemy from within.

[Angie]

Yes. Everybody's got one, apparently.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Angie]

Not just Trump. I like it. Yeah. I just couldn't let that go unsaid.

[Jennifer]

Okay, I have a couple of news stories that I would like to share with the listener. This is in the same vein as I've had it with stupid people. And an estimated 23.2 million Americans believe that chocolate milk comes from brown cows.

[Angie]

That cannot be right.

[Jennifer]

Study found that 48 respondents weren't sure where it came from. And 23.2 million Americans believe chocolate milk comes from brown cows. The guy comments on this, and, I mean, it's just a comment right out of my arsenal. Right out of my playbook. He says definitely maga. Bible thumpers.

[Angie]

He nailed it.

[Jennifer]

That's exactly what I thought. I mean, that's just.

[Angie]

Just.

[Jennifer]

God, you want to call us elitist? Swing for the fences. We're not this fucking dumb. Let's start valuing intelligence. Let's start valuing expertise. I'm not an expertise in Christmas light hanging, but I know who to call.

[Angie]

Oh, I got your guy.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. Listener. This may come as a total shock to you, but Pumps and I have not always been this pulled together in Rock Sol Solid. In fact, we used to be rather screwed up. Wouldn't you say, Pumps?

[Angie]

I would say damn near psychotic.

[Jennifer]

Totally. And we have written a cell phone expose. One could even say it's a manifesto. And the book title is Life is.

[Angie]

A Lazy Susan of Shit Sandwiches.

[Jennifer]

In all sincerity, we share a lot of our struggles that let us to this grand stage where we can talk about petty grievances. You can click the link below in the show notes to pre order your copy. Now, listener, are you curious about Ozempic or wegovy but not sure if your insurance covers it? That's where RO comes in. And we know this because Pumps, due to her dramatic makeover, is a customer of ro.

[Angie]

What I love about RO is there's no insurance paperwork and you have access to your provider on demand for any questions.

[Jennifer]

Plus, you can sign up online from the comfort of your own home. That means no waiting for an in person doctor's appointment, no commute to the doctor's office, and no waiting rooms. Join the over 250,000 people who have already chosen RO to access GLP1s. All you have to do is go to row CO had it to find out if you're covered for free. That's RO CO had it. For boxed warning and full safety information, go to RO CO safety prescription only. All right, another article from the News, and this one says, after analyzing the birthdays of 10 million married couples in England, researchers found no evidence of attraction or compatibility based on astrological signs.

[Angie]

What's sad is they have to do a research project and publish it for people to believe it.

[Jennifer]

I've had it with the astrological sign. I find it now an affront to my intelligence when somebody says, what sign are you? Oh, I knew it. Yeah, I knew you were a Leo. You know what I'm going to start doing when somebody asks me what sign I am? I'm going to start lying and saying I'm an Aquarius. I guarantee you I'll get the exact same results as I would if I told them my normal okay, I'll start.

[Angie]

Saying I'm a Leo because I am an Aquarius. And you start saying you're an Aquarius and we'll see what the different responses are. I feel like we just had somebody talking about astrological signs the other day and we were both just like, we don't buy into that.

[Jennifer]

The problem with what you just said, our plan, our scheme that we just Hatched.

[Angie]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

We're airing it, I don't think. Which is just a prime example of how incompetent.

[Angie]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

And stupid we are. Which goes back to my hat. It's I've had it with stupid people. Which means I've had it with us. All right, I think we've had enough of the news. Kylie, what do you have in store for us today?

[Kylie]

We have voice memos today.

[Angie]

Yay.

[Kylie]

Okay, first we've got Mary Grace.

[Jennifer]

Hey, y'all.

[Mary Grace]

This is Mary Grace. And this is a new I've had it of mine. I recently moved to Atlanta as a legal professional, and I just need to say personal injury attorneys are the most un serious people on the planet. What makes them think that me seeing a billboard of them in boxing gloves bursting through a brick wall or something is going to convince me to let them handle my settlement money? Let me just look up at this billboard. Dial 1-800-666. Ouch. And let whatever goose egg goober on the other end, probably drenched in hair gel and wearing novelty socks, handle my devastating bodily injury. Great plan. Get a grip. Be a man. Take that billboard down. You are a disgrace to the legal profession. All right. Sick of that. Had it with those billboards.

[Jennifer]

You know, I agree with her, but I also really want to see Meat Curtain memaw Legal take this same type of marketing approach.

[Angie]

So, like, I should be on a billboard, like, coming out of a vagina.

[Jennifer]

Oh, my God.

[Angie]

Like, jumping out of a vagina. Is that what you're thinking? Is that where your head goes? I mean, that's what I'm thinking.

[Jennifer]

That's where your head went. And I'm just here to say I support it. Yes, that's exactly what we do.

[Angie]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

In Trump's America, we launch Meat Curtain, MEMAW Legal, Eagle Law. And on the billboard, you're coming out of vagina, and then you say, having a problem getting an abortion? Call me Curt, people.

[Angie]

I could have, like, an eagle on my head, too. Like an eagle costume.

[Jennifer]

Yes.

[Angie]

And it could be 3D. I'd want it to be 3D.

[Jennifer]

Okay. No, no, no. Here's what we do. We have you coming out of a vagina and an eagle coming out of an egg.

[Angie]

Ooh, I like that.

[Jennifer]

Yeah.

[Angie]

See, that's the creative part of this. Yeah. Do you remember when she was talking, it reminded me. Do you remember when our kids were little, we had that law firm that both lawyers would jump into the pool completely dressed and say, call us. And then they jump in the pool totally clothed And I always thought, who fucking calls these guys? But then I found out a lot of people do. As as bad as what she's making it sound like. And as crazy as it sounds and unserious as it sounds, I have read research that supports those kind of ads. Get people in.

[Jennifer]

Oh, yeah.

[Angie]

So me curtain, meemaw coming out of the vagina. Eagle hatching out of an egg. I'm probably going to set the world on fire.

[Jennifer]

I really think in Trump's America, there's going to be people that are denied abortion care, they're going to be denied birth control. This is. This is your angle right here. And especially branding it from the source of all of these things. Straight from the vagina.

[Angie]

It works.

[Jennifer]

And it can be like, straight from the vagina's lips. Meat curtain, Meemaw legal. I. I'm telling you, straight from the me curtains.

[Angie]

Straight from abortion.

[Jennifer]

Your abortion care attorney.

[Angie]

That's right. I can do all kinds of any reproductive freedom, ivf. I can just be the vagina girl.

[Jennifer]

The meat curtain girl.

[Angie]

The meat curtain girl.

[Jennifer]

All right, that was fantastic, Kylie, what's next?

[Kylie]

I was gonna say, at one of our live shows, we had a fan who made her own shirt and it was disgusting. It was curtains made of meat, like raw meat. I remember this pumps was coming out of it and I had posted it in a carousel and we had so many dead serious comments of like, oh, my God, I love your new merch.

[Angie]

You know, it's funny, I wore that shirt the other day to pick up my dog and somebody said, I like your shirt.

[Jennifer]

I mean, I'm telling you, this is. This is what America needs.

[Angie]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

The eagle coming out of the egg, you coming out of the vagina. We have merch going crazy. I mean, just wonder if we could.

[Angie]

Make the billboard have a sound. Yeah, you can.

[Jennifer]

Why not?

[Angie]

Why not?

[Jennifer]

We can do why not.

[Angie]

I really. Will you promise me it'll be 3D? I just really want my head to be.

[Jennifer]

I think it's a video wall. An LED type, you know what. What's that thing in Vegas called the sphere, that. That's where it needs to be.

[Angie]

And I could be like. It could be like the vagina opening and me coming up.

[Jennifer]

Yes. And. Yeah.

[Angie]

Yes.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. Kind of like Khaleesi. Game of Thrones meets trashy legal commercial meets our brand of I've had it. You could come up kind of like the Statue of Liberty, but you're holding like an eagle in one hand and like a birth control pills and the other, you know, I Just, I think there's so much. And then, and then there could be like all of these Trumpers, like all this fighting. What is it, UFC fighting or boxing?

[Angie]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

Then we can make an AI video of you beating up like Mike Johnson, Ted Cruz, but kind of like sexually charged beat up.

[Angie]

Right. Maybe like even a dominatrix thing.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, like they're all whipped and bound and.

[Angie]

Yeah, I like it. This just gets better.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. Yeah. See, listener, there's hope.

[Angie]

There is hope.

[Jennifer]

There's hope.

[Kylie]

Okay, up next, we've got someone with the username Quanah6.

[Grant D.]

Hello to my favorite tag team of trouble and their lesbian sidekick. I should say, lovely lesbian sidekick. My God, how are we gonna get through the holidays? I have already said I would spend the holidays. Thanksgiving with my crazy ass family that wears the MAGA hats. What did I do? I agreed to this before the election. I need you guys to walk me through it. How am I supposed to get through it? I want to go shit in their pool. I want to go clog their toilets. I want to take cat litters, my side dish with cat turds in it. I want to get violent. I need you to walk me through it because I have had it with these and I don't know how to proceed. What am I going to do? Tell me what to do.

[Jennifer]

I mean, this is like, this is a problem all across the country. And, you know, it's, it's different for me when people vote for Trump. It's different than a vote for like a McCain or Nikki Haley or whatever. This is like, I mean, there's a cruelty to it. There is a distinct appetite for injuring and picking on people. And they, they say, oh, the price of bread and all that, that's just cover. They use that as cover so they don't have to say, listen, at the end of the day, I'm a big bible thumper and you're going to hell. I would imagine if you're a gay person, going home to your family that voted against your rights is really disturbing. Especially after you see that Trump appointed Matt Gaetz, who called gay people despicable. And that should be disqualifying. That type of language should be disqualifying. But they all like it. And so I don't know, I don't know how you get through that. I, I don't know. I mean, I fortunately don't have that problem. My parents really open minded and my friends are. But I think pumps has that problem.

[Angie]

Yeah, I do have that problem. And luckily for me, I have allies in My family, that will also be there. But I think the, for me, I'm just going to plaster a smile on for a couple hours, leave, exhale and be done. Because I, if I had other ideas I would tell you. But that's the only thing that has come to mind so far. Although I'm really, really leaning towards the cat litter dish.

[Jennifer]

That is excellent.

[Angie]

Is excellent. And I kind of like the stopping of the toilet because you can't really prove that was on purpose.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, I like all that too. But let me ask you this. Does it like. Because I don't have this with my parents and you have it with your parents and I think that there's, this is a big thing going across America right now. Do you feel because of this disparity, moral disparity, do you feel some distance or like maybe they don't really know the authentic you, that there's a superficial nature and role that each person is playing that's superficial. When you go to these things that you can't really share this. You were devastated, you were inconsolable for five, seven days. And you can't tell your parents about that because they'll want to be like, you know, minimize your feelings. So what does that do to the relationship?

[Angie]

Oh, I don't think there's any question that it causes distance and it adds a layer of superficialness that you otherwise would hope not to have in a relationship. But it's, it's so deeply felt for me and the hurt and the close mindedness is such kind of a character flaw issue for me that if I really sit down and think about it, it would make me not even want to go.

[Jennifer]

Right.

[Angie]

But you know, it's something I have to make a conscious choice to have a superficial yet distance news, weather, sports type relationship. But I don't think there's any question that at absolutely affects relationships.

[Jennifer]

Yeah, I think, caller, I think that, you know, when think about being around a Trumper, like being around an alcoholic and they say when you're around somebody that's active in their addiction. Exactly what Pumps just said. You talk about news, weather, sports, so you can't talk about news.

[Angie]

Right.

[Jennifer]

So you just go to weather and sports. That's it. And you're just going to have to accept the way Pumps has. This is a, there is a major component of superficiality in this relationship. And I'm gonna go, I'm going to play my role. I'm not going to be provocative and I'm going to leave now. There are some of you that are listening that are probably like that, that is something I'm not going to do. We have a friend and he messaged pumps in me and his dad was just a total dick to him via text message and was basically like, gay people aren't the only people that need rights. This man is gay and they just had. They have a new baby, they're married, they're gay married, and they have a baby, darling little baby girl. And I could see how much it hurt him.

[Angie]

Yeah.

[Jennifer]

And I think if your parents are dicks about your civil rights and about your human rights and they're abusive and dismissive, draw a boundary and protect yourself. You know, if it gets to a place where people are abusing and minimizing your beliefs and, you know, you're on the right side of history, you know, as sad as it is, I mean, that's the result of Trumpism. And I know that our friend, you know, he was really, he's really sad about this, but he has a wonderful, loving husband, a beautiful little girl, and support of millions of people that think it's bullshit the way MAGA marginalizes marginalized people.

[Angie]

Right. And you have to get a fam. You, your family of origin, you're always going to have, but you get to choose with love and friendship, your family as you grow as an adult and that, you know, you're just gonna have to be really careful about that, I think.

[Jennifer]

Yeah. So I think there's two roads that you can go down, caller. You can go down if these people are not abusive towards you outwardly. You can go scratch out news, weather, sports, limited time, 45 minutes, an hour, and then hit the road. But if they are abusive and dismissive and passive aggressive about, you know, human rights, civil rights and things, then I say you just have to draw a line and not subject yourself to that kind of abuse.

[Angie]

I agree.

[Jennifer]

And if they're like MAGA thumpers just flexing the whole time, that don't be around that, that's just. That's insanity. And then you're just being around toxic, stupid people. As I pointed out in my Hat it where they write, congratulations, President Trump. Number 45. Number 46. Number 47.

[Angie]

Right?

[Jennifer]

Just like Bravo, America, Great job. Yes. Let's go ahead and KO the Department of Education while we're at it.

[Angie]

[Elizabeth]

Have had it with gay guys who claim to be on the DL on dating apps who won't send a photo of their face when I ask them to, yet they ask to see mine so aggressively, it's like, no, Just like, dude, I'm gay. You're on a gay hookup app looking for dick. You're gay, too. If I'm gonna hook up, I'm gonna see your face and you're gonna see mine. So just send the damn photo already and quit being a about it. Just because I don't see your face doesn't make you any less into dick than you already were when you downloaded the app. I've had it, okay?

[Jennifer]

I'm with this guy on this. I agree. And here's what I think. I think the gays need to expand the gay agenda, and it needs to expand to include outing. All of these maga/married/ heterosexual, and I say in quotes, heterosexual people that are on these dating apps that have a little pretty wife and little pretty kids and then, like he said, are gay.

[Angie]

Right?

[Jennifer]

They're clearly gay and they won't they don't, you know, put their face out there because the gay agenda has been remiss in dealing with this, right?

[Angie]

I mean, it's, you know, it's like go to Sunday school and from the church pew you're texting on the gay hookup act.

[Jennifer]

But do you remember that guy? He was some evangelical preacher who was big anti gay, and it was in Colorado, I think, and it comes out that he's, you know, having all this gay sex, sniffing poppers all the time. And here's the thing. I don't give a about sniffing poppers in gay sex. Correct. It's not my business, Right. What I care about is exactly what our caller is talking about, which are these men that try to say, oh, I'm not gay. And this guy's like, no, you are.

[Angie]

Right?

[Jennifer]

You're doing the exact same thing that I am, which you're doing gay stuff on a gay website. You might not be out, and you might be the biggest lying liar in the heterosexual world, but you're gay. And so I just think that women need to be super choosy and not sleep with MAGA men. And I think gay men need to quit sleeping with MAGA men.

[Angie]

Here's the deal, okay? Switching gears on that, on the dating app, not showing your face, don't you think that if you don't show your face, it's kind of a catfish, or am I taking it too far?

[Jennifer]

No, it's. I know exactly what he's talking about. Because when I was younger, I remember being like, when these gay dating apps came out, I was at a gay friend's house for dinner. There was like 10 gay men in me, and I'm like, I want to see this app. Open it. I want to look. And so I'm looking through and a lot of people are photographed from like the neck down, and it kind of gets their torso, like, right to their, you know, pubic hairline or whatever. And I'm like, why don't they show their face? And like, oh, they're probably, quote, unquote, straight.

[Angie]

Got it.

[Jennifer]

And so when you see like the Moses Mikes, the Josh Holly's, the Ted Cruz's, all these people that do all this anti gay stuff, I think either, number one, they could be gay, or number two, they might have watched porn and gotten more excited about a penis than they did about the woman, that maybe bisexuality turn on might be more widespread than what we think in this binary world where you're either hetero or homo. I think that a Lot of men have probably watched porn and gotten excited about the man's role in the porn. And then they're like, oh shit, I'm a pussy. That's so gay, blah blah. So then you see all this outward bash at gay men when really the whole porn or whatever they're watching was erotic and a total turner and they can't say, yeah, the guys were all in. That kind of even turned me on.

[Angie]

Right, okay, that explains it.

[Jennifer]

And so they do. There's, that's why there's this whole, you know, psycho anti gay world because men can't just admit that. Like we can admit, women can say a woman can walk in like, oh my God, she's right. Gorgeous, what a figure, what a body. Rarely do men say, oh my God, man, that guy is so good looking. Because they feel like they would be gay if they said that. And really there's nothing gay about it. You're just. Or so what if it is kind of gay, Right? So what if us saying that, you know, oh my God, Kylie walked in, she looks so drop dead gorgeous today. Maybe we're lesn out for the moment. Who cares, right? Less out for a moment. But you know, I, I agree with that caller. These, these straight and I say that in quotes. Straight men out them 100 Adam, it's Trump's America. Let's just go crazy.

[Angie]

Go.

[Kylie]

Okay, up next is Elizabeth.

[G]

Hey, spunky. Ladies. This is a message for all the gay trio, patriots and patriots all the way from Australia. I've managed to finally unfurl myself in the fetal position to send you this message and tell you what I've had it with. What I've had it with is Americans. I mean, what the actual is going on with you people? It's now bloody obvious that Americans shouldn't be trusted and shouldn't be allowed to vote in US elections that should be left to the rest of the world. I mean, what the fuck were you all thinking? And because of the bullshit that you've pulled, we're now suddenly talking about abortion here in Australia and fuckwits over here are doing Nazi shit and repeating stupid Trump crap. Thanks a fucking lot. Thanks for nothing. You had one friggin job and now the entire world is fucked anyway. So Jen, Angie, Kylie, when you come to Australia, you're more than welcome to come and live with us, my wife and I, in our small country town. We've got a beautiful house, there's plenty of room for all of you and we may or may not be building a bunker. Anyway, America get your fucking shit together. Anyway, love to you all from the land of Australia. Bye.

[Jennifer]

I mean, I, I, I'm sorry, world. Like, it's just I, I can't wrap my head around the embrace of stupidity. Like, okay, speaking of Australia, do you remember that Australian break dancer that went viral at the Olympics?

[Angie]

Yes, at the Olympics. Yes.

[Jennifer]

And then she was posted and posted and posted, and people liked it, and she was a terrible break dancer.

[Angie]

Terrible.

[Jennifer]

This is Trumpism.

[Angie]

It's so true.

[Jennifer]

He is a meme. He is that Australian break dancer that you can't stop watching that then you end up kind of liking because they're putting your face, you're putting your face. And it depends, like, if you're way down the political rabbit hole like we are and reading into the policy implications of his ideas, then you're terrified. But if you're just trafficking on YouTube and you seem to the double jerk off dance over and over like, we saw the Australian break dancer, you think, I'll fuck it. Yeah, I'll vote for him. He's kind of a meme. He's kind of a vibe right now. And that's what's he is. We elected the Australian break dancer.

[Angie]

Oh, my gosh. That is a great, great connection because you're a hundred percent right. It's far less dangerous for the Australian break dancer.

[Jennifer]

Just every. I ended up going, well, you know what? I kind of like her. At least she tried, right?

[Angie]

At least she got out, did it.

[Jennifer]

And she's proud of herself, falling for it. And she's not an expert. She's not a break dancer. She shouldn't have been at the Olympics. It was from top to bottom. But my feed got lambasted with it over and over and over and over again that I finally even kind of like, surrendered to it. And that's what I think happened with Trumpism. Just boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And then finally was like, oh, it. I'll vote for him, right?

[Angie]

No, that's great. I mean, that's really something.

[Jennifer]

Stick with me for more hot tips.

[Angie]

I mean, sharpest tool in the shed for sure. And love Australia. Love the accent, love the offer to get in the bunker with her. So good.

[Jennifer]

All right, listener, we have no shows planned right now. We're not traveling. We have a Patreon because we have a cult. We have therapy sessions in that cult. It's called the Blind Leading the Blind Cult. And we have a YouTube channel. We have another podcast where we talk about politics, basically, on that podcast. It comes out every day. It's called IHIP News. We rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic in 1520 minute by digestible episodes. Other than that, we're just clinging on for dear life. Pumps.

[Angie]

Tell them we will see you next Tuesday and Thursday. I'll tell you what I've had it with.

[Jennifer]

I've had it with that. Listen up patriots. Gay treats and Natriots. We have a new podcast that has dropped. It's called IHIP News. It's Monday through Friday every day 15 to 20 minute hot takes on the political landscape of the United States of America. Always served with a side of petty grievances.

[Angie]

We are on all the available platforms, Apple, Spotify, Google, whatever you get your podcasts and YouTube.

[Jennifer]

[Jennifer]

A little bit more enthusiasm. Ca.

[Angie]

[Jennifer]
