THE BUILDINGS WITHOUT AN ESCORT.
>> Bill: GRIFF JENKINS ON THAT.
>> Dana: LET’S BRING IN THE
AUTHOR OF A NEW BOOK EVERYTHING
REMINDS ME OF SOMETHING,
ADVICE, ANSWERS, BUT NO
APOLOGIES.
HE IS THE HOST OF THE ADAM
COROLLA SHOW.
HE IS HERE.
YOU KNOW PERHAPS A COUPLE OF
THOSE COLBERT STAFFERS.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE
CHARGES GETTING DROPPED?
>> YOU KNOW, IT’S A REACTION
OBVIOUSLY TO JANUARY 6.
I FEEL LIKE NO ONE WAS IN
DANGER THEN, FEW OR -- JANUARY
6 HAS BEEN BLOWN UP A BIT.
THIS HAS BEEN BLOWN UP A BIT.
I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A REACTION
TO THAT.
THEY’RE HYPOCRITES NO DOUBT
ABOUT IT BUT I’M NOT CLUTCHING
MY PEARLS GOING OH MY GOD.
>> Dana: I THINK THE CAPITOL
POLICE THERE WERE INJURIES.
IT WAS DIFFERENT FROM JANUARY 6
BUT THERE WAS A PRECEDENT THERE
AND MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, WHY
ARE WE HAVING A DIFFERENT
STANDARD?
>> Bill: YOU HAVE TO DO
SOMETHING.
YOU ARE THERE AFTER HOURS.
ALLOWED IN ILLEGALLY.
LIE TO THE POLICE WHEN THEY
QUESTIONED YOU AND THEN YOU
WENT ON WITH YOUR SKITS.
>> I THINK WHAT IT IS, WHAT’S
GOING ON ON THE LEFT THEY MAKE
SOME PROCLAMATION, MAKE A BIG
DEAL OF OUT OF THINGS AND BUILD
THINGS UP AND BLOW THINGS UP
AND SOME VERSION OF THAT
HAPPENS ON THEIR SIDE AND THEY
TRY TO GO OH, IT’S NOT MUCH TO
DO ABOUT NOTHING AND PEOPLE ON
THE RIGHT GO IT’S A VERSION OF
WHAT YOU WERE SAYING WITH THE
BIGGEST THING IN THE WORLD.
IF THIS IS THE BIGGEST THING IN
THE WORLD, JANUARY 6, HOW CAN
THIS BE NOTHING?
I THINK THAT’S WHAT IT IS.
IT IS THEIR FAULT BECAUSE THEY
GET CAUGHT ALL THE TIME.
THEY GO DON’T WEAR YOUR MASK,
WEAR YOUR MASK, YOU HAVE TO
WEAR MASK AND LORI LIGHTFOOT I
HAD TO GET MY HAIRCUT.
THEY MAKE THESE BIG THINGS AND
THEY GET BUSTED DOING A VERSION
OF THAT BIG THING AND IT IS WHY
THEY SHOULDN’T MAKE A HUGE
THING OUT OF WHATEVER IT IS IN
THE FIRST PLACE.
>> Bill: SOUNDS LIKE A BOOK
TITLE.
>> Dana: MAYOR DEBLASIO, YOU
HAIL FROM CALIFORNIA BUT
DEBLASIO BECAME A NATIONAL
FIGURE AND SOMEBODY MADE FUN OF
ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
HE WAS DETERMINED HE WOULD
CONTINUE TO SERVE AND RUN FOR
CONGRESS AND YESTERDAY HE
DECIDED HE HAD TO END HIS
CAMPAIGN AND LISTENED CAREFULLY
TO THE PEOPLE AND RESPECTS THAT
THEY ARE LOOKING FOR ANOTHER
OPTION.
SO HE IS OUT.
>> NOW HE IS LISTENING
CAREFULLY TO THE PEOPLE?
THAT’S A CHANGE OF PACE.
YOU KNOW, I WAS THINKING ABOUT
IT IN THE GREENROOM AND I WAS
LIKE -- YOU GUESS TELL ME
BECAUSE I DON’T KNOW. WE HAVE GARCETTI IS A HORRIBLE
WE HAVE GARCETTI IS A HORRIBLE
MAYOR IN LOS ANGELES.
DEBLASIO, LORI LIGHTFOOT.
HORRIBLE BLUE MAYORS.
IS IT THE POLICY THAT MAKES
THEM HORRIBLE OR ARE THEY
HORRIBLE?
THEY ARE NOT DUMB BUT THEY DO
DUMB THINGS.
ARE THEY DANCING TO THE BEAT OF
THEIR PARTY?
>> IF THE POLICY IS BAD AND
FOLLOW THE POLICY ANYWAY THEY
ARE GIVING LIP SERVICE TO THE
PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR THEM.
>> IF I PUT YOU IN CHARGE OF A
PLANT AND ALL THE IDEAS GOING
ON IN THE PLANT WERE HORRIBLE
IDEAS AND YOU JUST HAD TO
EXECUTE THOSE IDEAS --
>> Bill: YOU WOULD BE A
TERRIBLE BOSS.
>> A HORRIBLE PLANT MANAGER.
CAN ANY OF THEM STEP OUT OF
THAT AND GO I’M NOT GOING TO
FOLLOW ALL THE DICTATES OF MY
PARTY WHO HAS A BUNCH OF
HORRIBLE POLICIES?
ARE THEY HORRIBLE OR ARE THEY
MADE HORRIBLE BY HAVING TO
FOLLOW HORRIBLE POLICIES?
>> Dana: THERE IS
SELF-DETERMINATION AND THEY
COULD DO WHAT THEY WANT.
I WONDER IF THAT REMINDS YOU OF
ANYTHING.
YOU HAVE A NEW BOOK OUT CALLED
EVERYTHING REMINDS ME OF
SOMETHING.
ADVICE, ANSWERS BUT NO
APOLOGIES.
THIS IS YOUR SIXTH BOOK.
>> THIS BOOK I TOOK QUESTIONS
FROM CELEBRITY FRIENDS AND I
TOOK QUESTIONS FROM LISTENERS
OF MY PODCAST.
THE OTHER BOOKS YOU SIT DOWN
AND WRITE A BOOK AND WHAT AM I
THINKING ABOUT AND RUMINATEING
ABOUT?
I HAVE AN IDEA AND YOU WRITE IT
DOWN.
THIS BOOK PEOPLE WOULD ASK A
QUESTION AND I WOULD GO I NEVER
THOUGHT ABOUT THAT.
AND THEN I WOULD BE FORCED TO
FORM THOUGHTS ABOUT THINGS THAT
I HAD NEVER HAD THOUGHTS ABOUT,
WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE PRETTY
INTERESTING BECAUSE IT MADE ME
GET OUTSIDE OF MY COMEDY BOX
AND TRY TO MAKE COMEDY OUT OF
IDEAS THAT I HAD NEVER FORMERLY
HAD.
THE ONE KEEPS POPPING TO MIND
IS SOMEBODY SAID TO ME IN 2022
IN A VERY PROGRESSIVE SOCIETY,
IN THIS DAY AND AGE, HOW COME
WHEN I SEE TWO PEOPLE RIDING ON
A MOTORCYCLE THE MAN IS STILL
RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE AND THE
WOMAN STILL BEHIND HIM.
EVERYTHING IS SPLIT NOW.
GUYS WORK, WOMEN WORK, GUYS
STAY AT HOME.
WOMAN GOES OFF.
THE TV COMMERCIALS.
WHY IN THIS DAY IN AGE THE
WOMAN IS STILL BEHIND THE MAN?
I THOUGHT IT IS A GROUP.
THE PROGRESSIVE GROUPS, THE
GROUPS THAT ARE VERY
PROGRESSIVE IN 2022 THE DOUBLE
MASK WEARERS ARE TOO SCARED TO
OWN A MOTORCYCLE.
THE ONE COMPANY THAT IS A
PROGRESSIVE SCARED COUPLE
DOESN’T OWN A MOTORCYCLE
BECAUSE IT’S TOO DANGEROUS.
WHAT YOU SEE IS MORE
TRADITIONAL, LESS FEAR-BASED
COUPLE AND THEY HAVE THE OLD
SCHOOL CONFIGURATION.
>> Bill: DID YOU GET THAT?
HE STUCK THE LANDING.
>> Dana: YES, I LOVE THE
PODCAST.
