Hi, this is Alonzo. I want to welcome you to episode 228 of my podcast. Who's paying attention?

0:21.9

Now, some of you are saying, well, you didn't do a podcast last week.

0:25.5

Why not?

0:26.0

Well, nothing happened, right?

0:28.3

Did anything happen last week?

0:30.8

Of course, I'm kidding.

0:33.9

Last week was so insane that our baby hands in chief president gave an insane press conference on Wednesday and it was out of the news cycle on Thursday because of the, the Kavanaugh hearings. I guess you call it a hearing. I don't even know what you call that. So, um, yeah, so,

0:56.4

so again, this is the, the comics dilemma. How do you keep up? How do you talk about all this?

1:02.3

It's so insane. The, the press conference that Trump gave, I don't even know. There was too much. I can't rehash it.

1:53.1

And Trump's response was, oh, I've called him much worse than that.

1:57.7

Con artists. Yeah, I've called women much worse.

1:59.8

Con artists. Come on. That's a term of endearment

2:02.8

for me it was it was ridiculous um but anyway Thursday obviously we had the cavanaugh hearings and

2:12.4

and everyone was watching oh that that was another uh that was another great moment. So in the press conference, sorry, I'm bouncing back and forth. I'm trumping right now. I'm just talking at random about different topics. Kanye West, we'll get to that later. When asked about the world laughing at him at the UN, his response, no, that fake news, fake news, they weren't laughing at me.
