Summary

Today's episode starts off with a bit of monologuing. I heard what I think are some bad arguments around the recent election results, so I wanted to put some thoughts out there. After that, I have a brief interview with Steve Hill! Steve will be the emcee of California Freethought Day this year. He is a comedian, atheist, satanist, activist, and more! We talk about his background, his run for the CA state senate, why he's boycotting the NFL, and about a tragedy that struck his family this year. Leave Thomas a voicemail! (916) 750-4746, remember short and to the point! Support the show at seriouspod.com/support!

0:52.0

promotion that I'm doing again this year because it's a really cool event and I'm happy to support it.

0:57.0

Unfortunately, I can't go this year.

1:00.0

It times out badly with something else that I already had committed to but nonetheless I'm

1:05.2

happy to still do some promotion for them because it's a great event and you should go.

1:10.4

It's a cool thing.

1:11.4

It's got cool people and I'm going to be speaking with one of them just in a few minutes here, but I wanted to take a second to do a little bit of a little bit of commentary. I don't do it as much anymore, but there's a couple things I want to talk about first off this is very simple

1:24.8

yes there probably is a tape of Trump using the N-word and no it's not going to make any difference

1:30.4

so we all should prepare for the time. Fast forward to when the

1:36.8

tape exists. We hear it. Although, side note, I think we probably, don't you think

1:41.8

we would have heard it by now. I think it probably does exist from the people who have said it does. I mean,

1:48.0

Pen Gillette said he was there, and I don't think he would just make that up but let's say it does exist it is weird that it hasn't come out yet I mean it probably could be some legal reason or some whoever has custody of it is somebody that doesn't want to hurt

2:04.8

Trump I don't know so I don't know why now like even if we're hearing about it

2:09.4

I think we can all be certain that it won't make it will make very little difference very little difference right I mean as I saw one tweet that was very good that was essentially hey I have an audio tape of

2:34.0

Trump calling Mexicans rapists and it's like yes it's already out there we already

2:39.3

know who this guy is it's all it's we know if you don't know by now you are incredibly

2:45.8

stubborn because he's told us exactly who he is and I think the people who

2:50.3

support him are for the most part people who are very comfortable with who he is.

2:54.8

I mean the Access Hollywood tape made very little difference.

2:58.8
