What is the proper airport attire? Also, Joe Biden says you always know which parts of the country have the best basketball. What does he mean by that? What was I like in high school? Are aliens real? What about dinosaurs? I'm not so sure.

Today we have a special episode of Relatable with Ali and Friends. That is brought to you by our friends at GoodRanchers.com slash alley that's goodranchers.com slash alley.

Alright guys, welcome to Relatable Happy Wednesday. Today we've got a different show for you. Different than we've ever done before. There is a crew beyond yonder on the other side of this camera that is going to come on the show.

And they are going to give their takes on a whole slew of topics. Most of them don't have to do with politics. We're just going to have fun on this episode. The reason that we're doing this, it's totally spontaneous, is because we were going to interview a guest, Kurt Cameron, whom you know I've had him on before. But unfortunately we had some tech issues. We weren't able to interview him about his upcoming movie on adoption. We'll reschedule that for a later day. And I was like, oh my gosh, what are we going to talk about today?

I went live on Instagram. I got some fun topic ideas from you guys. And I decided to ask for some help from my producers and from the tech crew. And so we are going to have fun. We're going to have fun conversation with Ali and friends. And if you like the format of this, if you like this kind of episode, you can let me know and we'll do some more in the future.

So let's start though with a little bit of politics. I know that you guys are kind of tired of this, but I promise it's going to be fun. We're not going to get too, too, and the weeds and too serious about all of this. But just so we can comment on some things that happened yesterday. Biden gave this big speech at this big rally and per usual, he said some crazy things.

Let me play you a very funny clip from yesterday and then we'll give you a reaction to it. Turn to general of the state of Delaware. And what he used to do is go down in the east side, the book called the bucket.

Highest crime rate in the country. There's a place where I used to was the only white guy that worked as a life card down in that area in the east side. And you know where the you always tell where the best basketball on the state is and the best basketball on the city is.

L O L have you guys ever seen are y'all fans of parks and rack. Yeah, any of you. Okay, do you know that episode where lastly is holding a town hall and there is this like old woman.

And she raised her hand to say that she does not want a basketball court built in her area because there she kept on saying there's a certain kind of person who likes to play basketball and she keeps on getting closer and closer to saying what she really means.

And obviously what she means and what Joe Biden means is a black person. Is that what he's saying he's saying that there was a high concentration of black people.

And I mean that seems to be. That seems to be what he's saying. Yeah, I mean this kind of like let's get you to bed on Uncle Joe. That's kind of thing that you kind of expect it your grandpa to start saying when like a weird uncle start going to go.

Yeah, like a weird uncle and he just gets away with saying stuff like this. He's had a bunch of stuff like this like in the election just like implying weird things about black people remember that story that he told about like being in a pool and like the kids would come up to him and like play with his leg hair.

Just something super weird to mention like of all the things you could choose to say at that moment of all the things that's what I think like of all the things that you could choose to say Joe Biden in this moment you chose this something about like his leg hair shining in the sun.

Blondon the sunshine in the sunshine and then the kids were fascinated by that or something. Yeah, really freaking weird. Okay, like honest talk. Do you think. Do y'all really think I know people say a lot like Joe Biden has dementia.

Which I don't like making light of you know actual dementia or Alzheimer's. But do you really think that he has some kind of diagnosis of like cognitive decline.

I feel like I can't I can't help but say yes, right? Like I.

I was telling someone the other day that it's hard for me to even watch clips of him because I feel I feel bad for him. I'm sort of like let's I mean we know what he's done in his history politically doesn't make me feel bad in that way but I am sort of like let the man rest you know like I feel like he just needs to go take a nap.

Yeah, someone else do the job you know I feel like Jill man handles him a lot like there was this video the other day where he was supposed to get on a plate.
