what's up theo it's andrew from texas uh just listening to your past uh podcast
and
you know you were saying a lot of stuff about how you know if you choose to
have kids
maybe that's on you if you ain't got food at home and government's not supposed
to take care of you
i agree with that but at the same time a lot of people are out of work right
now a lot of people
don't have they're not getting a paycheck you know so it's like a lot of people
were living
paycheck to paycheck to begin with i know you know what that's like and uh you
know a lot of times
people don't have food for their kids you know past paycheck to paycheck and
then and then now
all of a sudden uh they got no job so i think that's just something to be
mindful of when you
you've got a lot of listeners that uh you know kind of rely on you for positive
influence and advice
uh maybe just take it easy on people a little bit right now a lot of people are
out of work and
that's not their fault you know it's not really necessarily on them and and
when the government
shuts shit down maybe it's on the government to pick shit back up give people
some fucking paychecks
gang brother uh i appreciate the constructive uh you know not even criticism i
wouldn't call it i would
just say i appreciate your your uh your thoughts man um yeah i think what i
what i was you know and
this is from last episode i remember i was talking about um you know that it's
it's our responsibility
like you're your parent you're your children's government that if something you
know your kids
don't have something it's really and i don't have children but it is you're
gonna be your kids look
at you as their government you know um yeah i don't know if i was really saying
that i you know
maybe i should not clarify but i think i was saying more that
our government is just like uh
it's just i just think this is a good time for us to recognize that we
we need to be prepared
you know we need to be prepared for stuff i mean this past week i went and
bought a bunch of water
you know i went and got extra kangos i went and got extra things that i could
have at home
uh to make sure that i'm prepared
um you know the government's just kind of a system it's just a
you know it's something that that we've created and yes like we
you know we look to them for support and for like struck some you know to keep
things structured
but when they start to break down like
you know we're going to be left with ourselves
if the government breaks down completely we're going to be left with ourselves
um and i think that's really scary to think i'm sure it's way scary if you have
children
you know because you grow you know we've you've we've we've become accustomed
to a society that
you know we're able to you know we have a job because the job exists because
of the markets and the capitalism and you know it's all and and then that job
gives us a paycheck and
we're able to provide for our families um but i think i was just saying more
that
that that system is it's just a you know it's a system that we've been really
blessed with here
america that we're really fortunate to have and as scary as it is that that
that's that's just a
it's just a system it's just a structure and it's and it could it could fall
apart
you know it could fall apart and then at that point we're going to be
responsible uh
completely responsible for ourselves um so yeah i don't think i was saying as
much like oh you know
like you know like if you if you have to work paycheck to paycheck right now
that you know that
you're fucked up or there's anything wrong with you or um you know like that
that that's
oh jesus christ why don't i why don't i do something different for
to make my life okay but um
i don't know man i don't know what i'm talking about dude i don't know what i'm
talking about bro
okay do not know what i'm talking about i'm just saying that we gotta we gotta
look out for
ourselves you know we really have to and it's probably really scary if you have
children but
we have to look out for ourselves we gotta try our best to and i think that
this is a reminder in a
way that that there's a whole other system that's going on that's just a system
of like existing
um and and this makes that kind of like you know we were in such this
comfortable hammock
of of this society that we live in of this structure we're really it really
shows you just
how lucky we are to be able to navigate within this kind of comfortable
structure where
the where there are programs for if we can't work or we can't survive that
there's programs in place
to help us um but then also this kind of perks up that other side of me that
that animal side
that's like well what if that goes away what if something happens am i going to
be able to
take care of myself do i have have i started to think of what my plan would be
um and maybe that
kind of thing alone is just a is just too dark of a thought to really present
so um but i hope you're
doing well man i hope you're taking care of you and your kiddos out there it
sounds like you know uh
that your family is one thing that's first and foremost on your mind and and i
think that that's
real commendable man uh gang good evening good afternoon and other times thanks
