0:40

And welcome to the Daily Beans for Thursday, January

0:43

twelfth twenty twenty three. Today, New York

0:45

County and state GOP leaders

0:47

called for George Santos to resign. The

0:49

stark differences between the Biden

0:51

and Trump classified documents, a

0:53

judge will allow the Department of Justice to

0:56

use Trump's stand back and stand

0:58

by comment in the Proud Boys Audacious Conspiracy

1:00

trial, and the trial starts

1:02

for Richard Barnet. Who was photographed

1:05

with his feet up on Pelosi's desk.

1:07

I'm Alison and I'm Dana Goldberg.

1:12

Hi Dana. How are you? I'm good. How's

1:15

my friend, AJ? I am

1:17

okay. I'm glad you're

1:18

back. I missed you yesterday. We all missed you.

1:20

Name Q. Never like

1:22

taking the days off, but I'm grateful when I can.

1:25

Hey. It's you know, you're doing your

1:27

thing, and it's important. So we support

1:29

you and love you. And Thank you.

1:31

You're welcome. And it's always good to get

1:33

out, you know, travel around. So

1:36

today is a weird news day.

1:40

Every day has been a weird news day. But yeah.

1:42

I know. And when AG says today is a

1:44

weird news day, it's a weird news day. So

1:47

we have a lot of it to get to. Let's do the hot notes.

1:50

Hot Notes. Alright.

1:53

First off, top New York Republicans, including

1:55

freshman rep, Anthony Desposito, and

1:58

the chairman of the state GOP called

2:01

on rep George Santos to resign over

2:03

his multiple fabrications about his biog faith

2:05

that have prompted inquiries into his finances

2:07

and campaign spending. Chairman

2:09

Joseph G. Jr.

2:11

Of the Nassau County Republican Committee,

2:14

which initially backed Santos's candidacy

2:17

said Wednesday morning that the lawmaker

2:19

who was elected in November no longer

2:21

has the support of Republicans in the third

2:23

congressional district. Quote, George

2:25

Santos' campaign last year was a campaign

2:27

of deceit, lies and fabrication.

2:30

Cairo said during his news conference at

2:32

the GOP's Long Island headquarters,

2:35

He called for Santos to resign immediately, saying,

2:38

he's disgraced to the House of Representatives,

2:40

which is a fucking tough feat to

2:42

do hilarious. I mean, come

2:44

on. It's really hard to do. And

2:46

we don't consider him one of our congresspeople.

2:50

Desposito from the neighboring fourth

2:52

district said Santos told outright lies

2:54

and does not have the ability to serve in the house of representatives

2:56

and should resign. He is the first elected

2:58

GOP house member to pressure Santos to

3:00

step down. Within hours, other

3:03

top New York Republicans joined the call for

3:05

his resignation, Nicholas Langworthy.

3:08

The chairman of the state's Republican Party, the state's

3:10

Republican Party, Dana, said he supported the NASA

3:12

County GOP. He said, It's clear

3:14

that Santos, quote, cannot be an effective

3:16

representative, and it would be in the best

3:18

interest of the taxpayers to have new

3:20

leadership. Lanworthy said he

3:22

will continue to work to ensure that trust

3:24

and dignity are restored to the third

3:27

district that includes Long Island

3:29

and Queens. Gerard Cassar,

3:31

Chair of the Conservative Party of New York State,

3:33

also said in a statement that Santos' profound

3:36

use of mistruths. Miss Troves.

3:38

We call that lying where I come from. Morally

3:42

disqualifies him from serving. Where

3:44

were they when Trump was elected? Or any

3:46

of the GOP. I feel like you would wipe out

3:48

an entire congressional party

3:50

right now. Oh, yeah. Probably

3:52

some de Democrats. But, you know, most of the

3:54

GOP. Yeah. And a

3:56

defiant Santos told reporters, I'm not

3:58

resigning. I was elected to serve the people.

4:00

And, you know, the word I is

4:02

is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Who

4:05

are you? Now, house speaker Kevin

4:07

McCarthy made clear he would take no immediate action

4:09

against Santos and signaled he would appoint Santos

4:11

to house committees, but he might leave him off the more

4:13

important committees that he's like gonna give the gavel

4:16

to Lauren Beaubert and Marjorie Taylor

4:18

Greene for it. Oh, good lord. Yeah.

4:20

Right? Joining Cairo at the Long Island headquarters

4:22

NASA executive Bruce Blakeman

4:24

said, when he called himself a Jew, that

4:26

was ridiculous. State senator

4:28

Jack m Martin, a Republican

4:30

said, these aren't embellishments, these are live, Okay.

4:32

There we go. We're getting closer with Martin's

4:34

there. And he called for Santos to be

4:36

removed one way or another. Oh.

4:39

NASA County legislator Richard j

4:41

Nicolello said Santos's lies

4:43

have done violence to the public

4:45

trust, and mayor

4:47

Pamela Hansenbeck of

4:49

Glenn Cove said we were all duped

4:52

So interesting. And,

4:54

you know, a lot of people are

4:56

like, are these sort of Are

4:58

these calls for resignation being

5:00

made in vain? Are they falling on deaf

5:02

ears? The Republican caucus really

5:04

doesn't want to piss off the voters in

5:06

those districts in New York. For

5:09

twenty twenty four. So it'll be interesting to see

5:11

how McCarthy responds to this, but

5:13

there we are. It will be. Also, like, how

5:15

is this the line? I do have to wonder

5:17

as they start to invest to gain him with his

5:19

donors and where monies come from. If

5:21

they don't wanna cross reference any other donations

5:23

to any other Republicans up,

5:25

in the GOP because what if a name comes

5:27

up twice? Like, I think there's some I don't

5:29

know. It's just hard to believe that this is the breaking

5:31

point for the GOP, but at least maybe that

5:33

looks like there's one Yeah. Anyway.

5:36

Yeah. Well, okay. Moving on to the story,

5:38

AG, a federal judge ruled Wednesday that

5:40

prosecutors can use video of

5:42

the former guy telling the far right group

5:44

the Proud Boys, remember this, stand back

5:47

and stand by in the trial

5:49

against several of the group's leaders charged with

5:51

seditious conspiracy. Mr.

5:53

Judge Timothy Kelly said that the former president's

5:55

comment showed, quote, an additional motive

5:57

to advocate for mister Trump and

5:59

engage and charge conspiracy keep

6:02

Trump in power. During a presidential

6:04

debate in twenty twenty, Trump was asked by

6:06

moderator Chris Wallace if he would condemn

6:08

white supremacists in militia groups. On

6:10

democratic candidate Joe Biden, interjected,

6:12

and specifically mentioned the Proud

6:14

Boys. And this is a quote, Proud

6:17

Boys stand back and stand by.

6:19

Trump responded I'll tell you what.

6:21

I'll I'll tell you what. Somebody's got to do something

6:23

about antifa and the left because this is

6:25

not a right wing problem. Okay.

6:28

The comment according to prosecutors and members of

6:30

the Proud Boys who testified publicly to

6:32

the House Select Committee, investigating

6:34

January sixth, was celebrated by

6:36

the far right group and was used as a

6:38

recruiting tool. Nick Smith is a

6:40

lawyer for Ethan or Dean. One of

6:42

the defendants in the case argued that Trump's

6:44

comments didn't reflect any of the actions

6:46

his client and the four other defendants

6:48

are alleged to have taken during the

6:50

conspiracy. And that the infamous

6:52

comment would be unduly prejudicial with

6:54

the jury. Okay.

6:56

So his argument is that they did it all

6:58

on their own. Right without any

7:01

okay. Mhmm. Okay. So my my

7:03

clients are guilty, but they did

7:05

they did this on their own. The other guy's not, which

7:07

is really interesting. Kelly rejected

7:09

that argument by the way, noting that defendants

7:11

and Rico Tario, and then chairman

7:13

of the Proud Boys and a defendant in the

7:15

trial tweeted and he did

7:18

standing by, sir, immediately after

7:20

the debate. All prosecutors say

7:22

they plan to present that video as

7:24

part of their opening statement currently

7:26

scheduled for Thursday in this trial.

7:29

Nadine Tario and defendant Zachary

7:31

Rio, Dominic Cozzola, and

7:33

Joseph Biggs, they've all pleaded not

7:35

guilty, which, like we've said, is

7:37

really interesting considering that the

7:39

other guys went down for this shit Yeah.

7:42

Two of them over there at the oath keepers.

7:44

I thought if somebody would flip for sure. We we have

7:46

had a couple of flippers, but not any of

7:48

its any that are charged with seditious

7:50

conspiracy. And Joseph Biggs, by the

7:52

way, his lawyer, who is the same

7:54

lawyer that represented Alex Jones. So yesterday,

7:56

I did a story that he was being

7:58

benched for this trial. He is now going to withdraw

8:00

as counsel for for bigs. So

8:03

more there's that too. And

8:05

from Sarah Burris at Ra Story,

8:07

CNN reported Monday that some classified

8:09

documents were recently discovered in president Joe

8:11

Biden's items in a storage office

8:14

which is drawing comparisons to former

8:16

president Trump's document scandal that

8:18

has been referred to special counsel Jack Smith in

8:20

the justice department. However,

8:22

there are some key fucking differences

8:24

I'm adding the fucking part between the

8:26

Biden case and the Trump case. National

8:29

Security lawyer Bradley Moss took

8:31

to Twitter to know that the story is drawing

8:33

a stark contrast with Trump.

8:35

In particular, he cited a statement from

8:37

Richard Salver, special counsel to

8:39

Biden, who said that

8:41

on the same day the material was discovered

8:43

November second, the White House Council's Office

8:45

notified the national archives which took

8:47

possessions of the materials the following morning.

8:49

That right there is the difference they immediately

8:51

cooperated said Moss. And

8:53

Bradley Moss also pointed out, the day the

8:55

documents were discovered Biden

8:57

team reached out to the National Archives and it was sent to

8:59

the Justice Department without incident. Quote, the

9:02

White House is cooperating with the National Archives and

9:04

the Department of Justice. Regarding the

9:06

discovery of what appeared to be Obama Biden

9:08

administration records, including a small number of

9:10

documents with classified markings, Sabra said in

9:12

a statement, A documents were

9:14

discovered when the president's personal attorneys

9:16

were packing files housed in a locked

9:18

closet to prepare to vacate the office

9:20

space at the Penn Biden Center in DC.

9:22

The president periodically used that space

9:24

from mid-twenty seventeen until the start of

9:26

twenty twenty. That was by the way when

9:28

Trump was in office in he didn't have any

9:30

fucking knowledge that any classified documents

9:32

were missing, then that's on him.

9:35

On the day of the discovery, November

9:37

second, twenty twenty two, the White House Council's

9:39

Office notified the national archives and the archives took

9:41

possession of the materials the following morning.

9:43

This is how you properly

9:45

deal with this matter. Not by lies

9:47

concealment and obstruction said

9:49

moss. Now, I'm quoting here from Ross

9:51

Story. Alison Gill, the

9:53

Mueller, she wrote podcaster, compared the

9:55

Biden discovery to the classified documents

9:57

found in Trump's Palm Beach storage unit

9:59

or the classified emails that were on Hillary

10:01

Clinton's server. Quote, no

10:03

crime. Very unlike the ones found in

10:05

Trump's desk commingled with non

10:07

classified, having lied about having

10:09

them, she noted. And then Bradley

10:11

Moss went on to say if you can't grasp the

10:13

difference between finding improperly stored

10:15

classified documents that you immediately turn over

10:17

to Narra versus struck and lying in a

10:19

federal investigation regarding improperly

10:21

stored classified documents. I cannot help

10:23

you. LA

10:25

Times, legal analyst and former

10:27

prosecutor Harry Litman predicted

10:29

that the nuance isn't likely to stop

10:31

rep Kevin McCarthy, rep Jim Jordan, and

10:33

the new hit squad from howling to

10:35

the heavens. And national security lawyer

10:37

Mark Zaeed agreed with his

10:39

colleague, Moss, that it happens

10:41

commonly and usually results in administrative

10:43

action, not criminal action. Quote, Trump

10:45

and team would have fared exactly the

10:47

same way had he not delayed, obstructed, and

10:49

potentially lied about existence of

10:51

classified records at Mar a Lago.

10:53

Big difference. Said Zaeed.

10:55

And our friend former federal

10:58

prosecutor, Renato Mariotti, I'm very honored

11:00

to be mentioned among all these folks But Absolutely.

11:02

I love that you got to quote yourself in your own

11:04

story. Renato

11:06

explained that he knows the US attorney

11:08

that has been assigned to this and knows him to

11:10

be smart fair and has good judgment.

11:12

So I don't expect

11:14

charges here. He says Biden didn't know

11:16

he had these documents and returned them when they were

11:18

found. If Trump did the same, he wouldn't be

11:20

in hot water. That's

11:23

Mariotti. Now aids to president Joe Biden have

11:25

discovered at least one additional batch

11:27

of classified documents in a location separate

11:29

from this DC office that he

11:31

used after leaving the Obama administration

11:33

according to a person, a person

11:35

familiar with the matter. Since

11:37

November, after the discovery of the documents

11:39

with classified markings in his office,

11:41

Biden aides have been searching for any

11:43

additional classified materials that might be in

11:45

other locations said the source, who

11:47

spoke on the condition of anonymity, sounds like he's

11:49

doing his due diligence and looking everywhere and

11:51

making sure everything is handed over. And

11:53

keep in mind that little story there about the second

11:55

batch with the one source comes from Candelanian

11:57

who famously said the Mueller report

11:59

exonerated Donald and then blocked me on

12:01

Twitter when I called him out on it. But

12:03

even if true, this does not change the

12:05

calculus. Keep in mind,

12:07

Merrick Garland has known about these documents since

12:10

before he appointed Jack

12:12

Smith, special counsel. Jack

12:14

Smith has known about them. And

12:16

yet has aggressively pursued the criminal

12:18

investigation into Donald for stealing and

12:20

lying about his classified documents,

12:22

so any political considerations

12:24

being touted by the media and folks on

12:26

social media is clearly

12:28

not slowing down the investigation into

12:30

Trump. And regardless of

12:32

anything, in this outcome. It's clear we need

12:34

new regulations on the control of fucking

12:36

classified material. That just I'm just gonna

12:38

say this across the

12:40

board. And I will also end

12:42

with this, Adena. I

12:44

personally don't think, and the people who I've

12:46

talked to, Pete Strucker, you know,

12:48

all the the US attorneys, all the people

12:50

I know at the in in the legal field,

12:52

the legal experts because, you know, I I formulate

12:54

my opinions based on the opinions of other experts.

12:57

I don't just, you know, pull it out of my

12:59

whoa. So, you know, they

13:01

say they say these

13:03

are two completely different things and it

13:05

shouldn't make a difference you go by the facts in the

13:07

law, Donald Trump committed a crime, Joe Biden, did not

13:09

commit a crime. But I I'll

13:11

say this, if they decide not to

13:13

charge Donald Trump, because

13:15

of political considerations only.

13:18

And the way it might look, if they don't

13:20

go after Joe Biden or whatever, I'll

13:22

be pissed I will that will be

13:25

absolutely a chicken ship move to

13:27

me. I don't expect Jack Smith to do

13:29

that, but if he does, I'll be fucking pissed.

13:31

You'll hear from me, I think a lot of us won't be. Alright,

13:33

Gigi. Thank you so much. Well, opening

13:35

statements and trial testimony, they started

13:37

Tuesday for the Arkansas man who was photographed

13:40

with his foot propped up on the desk

13:42

in then house speaker Nancy Pelosi's

13:44

office during the January sixth right on the

13:46

capital. Now the way prosecutors telling

13:48

it the viral photograph of Richard Big

13:50

O Burnett, casually reclining

13:52

behind a desk in Pelosi's office

13:54

does not capture all of the crimes he

13:56

committed that day. Prosecutors

13:59

alleged that Barnet of Arkansas

14:01

went into the capital with a nine

14:03

hundred and fifty thousand volts

14:05

stun gun left a message to Pelosi in

14:07

her office and took a piece of government

14:10

mail on his way out. He was

14:12

indicted on eight charges including

14:14

obstruction of an official proceeding in theft of

14:16

government property. And this is a

14:18

quote, my country will not be socialist

14:20

as long as I am alive

14:22

to fight assistant US attorney.

14:24

Alison Prout said Barnett had

14:26

written that on Facebook in the

14:28

weeks leading up to January sixth.

14:30

Bernat, who was sixty two, is among the more well

14:32

known defendants to go on trial in connection

14:34

with January sixth, largely due to

14:36

that photograph of him and closed his office.

14:39

In twenty twenty one, he started a fundraiser

14:41

to help him with legal fees in connection

14:43

to the trial in exchange for at least

14:45

a hundred dollars Barnett indicated

14:47

he would give a signed photo of him

14:49

inside the speaker's office

14:52

in her opening statement, route

14:54

detail twelve jurors,

14:56

two alternates, what what prosecutors

14:58

believe Barnett did during the failed

15:00

inspection. She said he was armed with a stun

15:02

gun, which was concealed inside of what

15:04

a walking stick and had sharp

15:06

spikes that she proclaimed could

15:08

be used to shock or stab

15:10

somebody. Now, Prout said, Barnett

15:12

also left a note that reference

15:14

to possible explovative. He said,

15:16

hey, Nancy. Bigo was here,

15:18

and I'm sure it's bit. It's definitely

15:20

marked out. That's what the note

15:22

read. Brad Dyer, Bernad's

15:24

attorney, objected Prowls' claim

15:26

about what the final word was because

15:28

it was apparently dotted

15:31

out, though a judge overruled him in court

15:33

filings they previously denied

15:35

Barnett used the executive, the

15:37

prosecutor said aloud. Now the defense chose to

15:39

defer their opening statement, meaning they will

15:41

give it later in the trial when they begin

15:43

presenting their defense. And another

15:45

quote, as we finish up jury selection

15:47

today, Please pray for the jurors,

15:49

Barnett tweeted Tuesday. It's amazing that

15:51

they can go to Twitter with the shit. Anyway, for

15:53

their health, for their families, that father

15:55

will touch their hearts, and that truth will

15:57

be revealed. Now prosecutors

15:59

called as their first witness,

16:01

Emily Burrett, who worked in Pelosi's

16:03

office during January six and on whose

16:05

desk, Barnett, had placed his

16:07

foot. She described to the jury

16:09

running with Pelosi out of the office, out

16:11

of the house chamber towards safety,

16:14

while asking the rest of Pelosi staff to walk

16:16

down in a safe room. What a

16:18

horrifying day. Brett

16:20

testified sensitive materials were cluttered

16:22

on the surface where Barnett put a foot,

16:24

including a business card containing her

16:26

work phone number, which was the same

16:28

number Pelosi used that day.

16:30

When a photo of him was posted to Twitter

16:32

random calls began flooding the

16:34

phone or at TESTified. That

16:36

card that was on there because he posted to

16:38

Twitter. Now, Pratt said a

16:40

police officer and other witnesses from January

16:42

six were set to testify in the days ahead, and

16:44

the trial was scheduled to continue throughout the

16:46

week. So We'll see what happens with that.

16:48

But one of the most infamous of

16:50

January six. Yeah. And interesting, it

16:52

was Burrat's desk in Pelosi's office

16:54

that his feet were up on. Interesting.

16:57

Yeah. And I thought that he wrote Bitch on

16:59

Stick around. After these messages

17:41

It's probably been a long time since

17:43

your bedroom has had a refresh. Even when

17:45

I got in my house, I tend to, like,

17:47

leave the bedroom alone, but,

17:50

wanted to go in there and I wanted to change it up. And

17:52

now is the perfect time for you to do the same to

17:54

elevate the most important room in your home with

17:56

Tumi. Introducing the bed By

17:58

Thuma, this fantastic bed frame is

18:00

handcrafted from high quality up cycled wood. There's

18:02

beautiful unique variations in the natural grain

18:04

and it's eco friendly. It's

18:06

up cycled wood. The bed by Thuma is

18:08

backed by a lifetime warranty. It ships right to your

18:10

door in three easy to maneuver boxes. You don't

18:12

need tools to put it together. It only takes about

18:14

five minutes. You will easily be able to build

18:16

it yourself. And now, this perfect

18:18

platform bed frame just got better. You can

18:20

customize the bed by choosing between two types

18:22

of headboards. Fuma's original pillowboard

18:24

or Fuma's new solid wood headboard.

18:26

The pillowboard's fabric brings a softness in

18:28

color to any space while the new solid wood

18:30

headboard offers this beautiful sleek

18:32

support. Either one attaches directly to

18:34

the bed using Japanese joinery and you won't need

18:36

tools like for that either. You can get

18:38

this as an upgrade or buy it later.

18:40

19:41

up from Julia, pronounced she and her.

19:43

Thank you for the Ghostbusters reference today

19:45

that made my day Gen

19:47

X forever. So when you were gone

19:49

yesterday, Dana, I said there is no Dana only

19:51

Zool and that today I would be the gay Keeper

19:53

of GoDaddy. That's amazing. Well done. Korean. Yeah.

19:57

Also, Julia says she wants to give a shout out to the

19:59

recent Indiana veteran that wrote in

20:01

blue and a red state. My

20:03

husband and I are also blue in Indiana. You are not

20:05

alone. I love this community so

20:07

much. Attaching petpicks of our two dogs,

20:09

Cooper, Brownish Red, and Kianu, who's

20:11

the white dog, Fee fee. A fee

20:13

fee fee fee to what the munt. Oh,

20:16

feel free. I try a fee fee

20:18

fee fee. We said that is not AG's

20:20

mess up. It literally says fee

20:22

free. Pannute to what the mutt, but only

20:24

one of them is a mutt. The other

20:26

is frequently misidentified purebred. Also,

20:28

our chunky boy cat tomato. That's a

20:30

great name for my gosh.

20:33

Dogs. Oh, I I'm not looking. I'm not

20:35

looking -- Yep. -- at the breeds.

20:37

Okay. So here's the dogs and there's the

20:39

cat. So The

20:42

the one looks like a soft coat of wheat interior.

20:46

Yeah. The other looks like

20:48

a American bulldog maybe

20:50

with a and a pillow. Yeah.

20:52

Let's see. Let's see what we got. Cooper

20:54

is an Irish terrier, frequently

20:56

mistaken for a labradoodle or an airedale, and

20:58

I called it a soft coated. So there you go.

21:00

You have another one. Kiani,

21:02

we think is a lab pit giant

21:04

baby. Yes.

21:08

The giant baby breed. That

21:10

is so fun. Thanks for kicking

21:12

us off on the good news. This next one

21:14

is from Irish goddess pronounced she in

21:16

her, Dear Queen's of the Illuminati.

21:19

Last spring, my twenty three year old came out

21:21

as trans, MTF for those

21:23

listening that's male to female. Kidda

21:25

lived with me at the time and still

21:27

does, so she's been on my

21:29

insurance, which has helped cover the cost of her therapy

21:31

and hormone therapy. Over the holidays, she brought

21:33

a house she would like to start wearing,

21:35

curly clothes, and wanted to know where would

21:37

be the best place to go shopping.

21:39

We live in Lauren Bover country. Jesus,

21:41

I'm sorry. And that says that

21:43

in this submission. And so we were a bit

21:45

nervous about where to go that would be safe and

21:47

comfortable for her. The universe smiled

21:50

at us because I found out that the

21:52

local torrid actually has a

21:54

trans woman working in the

21:56

store. So I found out

21:58

her schedule and took kiddo on the next day she

22:00

was working. Wow. What an amazing

22:03

experience? Divina, the

22:05

clerk, was amazing. She

22:07

immediately took my daughter under her wing, worked

22:09

with her to find out what styles she likes.

22:11

Oh my god. And was able to find

22:13

the right sizes for her. She even had her

22:15

try on some bras so we could anticipate what

22:17

her size would be there. The smile

22:19

on my daughter's face as we walked out

22:22

store with her purchases was worth

22:24

every penny, and I cannot begin

22:26

to describe the joy we felt from the love and

22:28

acceptance we received. I hope

22:30

for the day all trans people can experience

22:32

an afternoon like this. Hot

22:35

pet tax, that included pics of

22:39

brigadier General Jack D. Ripper,

22:41

a mini doxy doxy mix we

22:43

got earlier this year. Kiddo wouldn't let

22:45

me take any pictures of her in the

22:48

new outfits as she's still not comfortable

22:50

with that. Thank you for being

22:52

amazing. And Irish goddess

22:54

thank you for being amazing.

22:56

It's just gonna say. Thank you for being

22:58

thanks to Divina for being amazed. I

23:00

know this whole story. You went to

23:02

the right place at the right time and that was

23:04

the universe smiling upon. And there's so many

23:07

DaVinas out there, and I hope people are able

23:09

to find them. What a beautiful submission?

23:13

US, that's I would cheerin' up a

23:15

little. And now I get to look at this

23:17

adorable puffer. Look at this, you know, the

23:19

puffer super cute. Look at

23:21

the eyebrows. Look at the eyes. That's

23:23

a that's a gimme a gimme some treats

23:25

face right there. So

23:27

awesome. Oh, thank you for that submission

23:29

so much. That made my

23:31

day. Next up from John from New Jersey pronounce

23:33

he and him. Gogo's are in the rock and roll

23:35

hall of fame. When I was young, I heard

23:37

them no mind to what they say.

23:40

Pay no mind to what they

23:42

say. Doesn't matter anyway.

23:46

Olive is a seal. Okay.

23:50

Olive is a seal. Olive is a

23:52

seal. I love it. I could never understand why they were

23:54

giving their friend all of such hard What

23:56

did she do to anybody? Also, seals are cute.

23:58

Why would you not want to be one?

24:00

Eventually, I learned the correct lyrics

24:03

And now I know it was always happy, bouncy celebration of

24:05

love on the sly.

24:07

Thanks for that misheard song lyric,

24:09

and I apologize for singing out a key a

24:11

little bit there. Gogo's are

24:14

very talented and They are. I always love

24:16

when you sing, that makes me happy. Alright.

24:18

The next one's from

24:20

Katie from around. She and her. Hello, beans, Queen's. AG, I found

24:22

you on Twitter a while ago and then started

24:24

listening to the podcast and became a patron. I

24:26

tell everyone who will listen about the

24:28

podcast and because the time difference I'm

24:30

in Alaska. I usually listen at night right after

24:32

it's up. U and DG have had me

24:34

in stitches many times, but

24:37

recent Pannette, I think the

24:39

pee is silent. The incident had begun

24:41

chuckling for days. You and me both, by

24:43

the way, Katie. It reminded me of the lines

24:45

in the movie guest two when Bernie Mac

24:48

well, mister Pete Jones. Thanks

24:51

for the laughs. My confession is that I just

24:53

realized the opening of the podcast jingle is

24:55

news with swearing. I can't remember if it took me

24:57

so long to catch that because you often say it's

25:00

news with swearing. For

25:02

pet tags, I'm supposed to pick

25:04

up my sweet Mincey. I took ago from

25:06

a bad situation when she was two and a

25:08

half. Her first few years weren't good, but

25:10

now she gets lots of love attention, walks,

25:12

and scooby snacks. I'm

25:15

sure you're already on this, but I

25:17

noticed a go fund me for the

25:19

for officer Fanaan. I hope

25:21

you can amplify that. If the POS

25:23

written house could get two million from

25:25

his, we should be able to do better for

25:27

a real hero. Thanks, AGNDG,

25:29

for all you do to break down the crazy, for

25:31

those of us trying to keep Yes. And yes,

25:34

Katie, I have shared that. I've retweeted it

25:36

on my Twitter at molar She wrote where you

25:38

can find that and donate to officer

25:40

Fanaan. He was he

25:42

was he was robbed of his

25:44

pension. Oh, that's right.

25:46

Yeah. And he's a family to take care of.

25:48

This dog Look at Mayzie. Look

25:50

at the second picture, Mayzie. Oh

25:52

my god. Maisie, it won't

25:54

sit down on her highlights all the way. It doesn't look

25:56

like like she's always, like, red to go. Yeah.

25:59

I've I've seen dogs like that, and you always have to

26:01

be, like, sit all the way down, sit on your

26:03

butt, you know. Oh my gosh.

26:06

No, dude. Thank you for that And yeah, everybody check

26:23

morning, we missed you over the week

26:25

after Christmas, you have gotten us through some

26:27

dark days, the details about which I look

26:30

forward to sharing upon the favorable

26:32

fare and just just resolution of a

26:34

ridiculous matter, which I pray will be settled

26:36

sooner rather than later. Ed doesn't

26:38

pray. Please add an affirmation on

26:40

his behalf if you don't mind.

26:42

Yes, absolutely affirmation for Ed right now.

26:45

Alison, please notify me when you assemble the beans

26:47

choir. I've waited years. I

26:49

was a soloist and a choir girl in high

26:51

school. Yes. And had a binge of

26:53

musical theater in the early

26:55

aughts. I can still sing

26:57

a Kyrie by somebody with a powdered

27:00

wig almost. I'll practice my

27:02

Bogox. I don't believe I can come

27:04

up to the mastery of

27:06

Alice Henn. Get it.

27:09

Alison. The dead thanks.

27:11

I'd be a hot backing chick.

27:13

He's happy to toss the corn at the choir. He's

27:15

happy to toss the corn at the choir, rocky horror

27:17

picture show style, Hey, wait, I have an idea.

27:19

Ed is six foot five. He could be

27:22

rooster Rocky in such a performance. What's

27:24

that honey? Oh, no. He says

27:27

no. He draws the line at tossing

27:29

corn, but he looks forward to hearing

27:31

AGOG, the AGOG

27:33

choir. Perhaps there's a

27:35

youth choir that sings in Chico

27:37

Slavakia that I can suggest to

27:39

my kids who aren't actually kids

27:41

anymore, twenty six, twenty six, twenty eight,

27:43

and thirty. But they'll always be

27:45

uthier than I. I do hope my goofiness

27:47

has brought someone a smile or at least an eye

27:49

roll, love from a Cleveland native

27:51

in NorCal. And the awesome geeky

27:53
