So how do we think England's Brat Summer is going?

Well, someone out there is having a Brat Summer. I just don't know that it's me, you know?

Because, I mean, I don't know, it's tough to start episodes like this.

The key elements of having a Brat Summer, right? Doing a lot of cocaine and having fun with your friends. Now,

if we identify who in this country right now is doing a lot of cocaine and having fun with

their friends, it's pretty clear to see who's having the brat summer. Who's on the receiving

end of beating some authority figures dressed up in uniform, you know? No, it's sometimes tough

to sort of to talk about these things, right, except by just

asking, how are we all feeling about the ongoing and intensifying wave of race riots

taking place up and down the country?

Well, I'll tell you one thing.

I'm not feeling particularly Julia.

If there's one person who's not having a brat summer, it's me.

No, I'm right there with you.

I will be honest.

I am not thrilled with this.

Kier Stama should go and do a press conference where he says, I'm not feeling pro, Julia, today.

I was commenting to Hussein before we came down to record that it's weird because America obviously has a profound tradition of white race riots attacking minorities. It's sort of the history of America, particularly white people attacking black people, but there have been lots of other examples. The zootsuit riot in Los Angeles, for example, attacking Hispanic Americans. There's all sorts of things like this around.

It's not just a song by the Cherry Popp and Daddy's from the weird swing revival in the late 90s.

It was actually a race riot.

But in modern times, it's sort of like the cops just do it for white people.

Whereas in Britain, seeing this in the wild is sort of like, oh, to me, obviously being a foreigner
