The Emperors' Clothes

As I, JB, sidestep the Super Bowl craze for a moment of respite, I'm sharing some heartfelt thoughts with you, my extended podcast family from every corner of the world. From the quiet joy of a good book to the simple act of sipping on our favorite drinks, we come together in this episode to celebrate the ordinary things that bond us. A special hello goes out to our new friends tuning in from Loudoun to Germany. If you're the type to appreciate a good chat over life's intricacies and the occasional offbeat humor, our little corner of the internet is waving you over to join the fun.

Navigating the delicate waltz of gender roles and societal expectations is no easy feat, and that's precisely what we're tackling today – no filters, just raw honesty. We contemplate the ever-evolving dance between traditional values and modern realities, discussing how both men and women shape their identities amidst these shifts. Special thoughts are spared for my own partner in crime, my resilient wife, whose strength is nothing short of inspiring. As we sign off, we're reminded that life's curveballs come fast and unexpected; it's our shared wisdom and a touch of preparedness that keep us in the game. So, if blunt commentary paired with a sprinkle of chaos is your jam, you won't want to miss what Give Zero brings to the table.

It's America's number one third rate web page it is. It dovetails perfectly with our little podcast. I mean, it ain't fancy, but we got our shit together because they match cause bad assery, that's what we do, is how we roll. So that's there. There's the. There's sitting at the backstage pass area. Basically, it's a nice way to donate three bucks a month to the show. It's got a couple of blog posts back there and some discounts and stuff for the store. I'll tell you more about that later on, as we go and they add more items to the store. For right now, just go sign up, get your name on the list, be a part of the backstage club, and three bucks I mean, we're cheap. Of course we're cheap.

Speaker 1: 6:34

All right, let's talk about the emperor, who now has clothes. Shall we? Our good buddy, joe Biden, our buddy, our commander in chief, the top dog, the guy, the dude, the man, the myth, the legend, tall buildings in a single bound, faster than a speeding bullet and a locomotive, and can mumble where no man has mumble before our God. Now, now, as of recently, another brilliant select committee has gotten together and decided that, after careful medical examination and in depth medical examination, oh boy couldn't stand trial for nothing, because he ain't competent. He's mentally incompetent to ever stand a trial for any of his many woes Sniffing kids working with Hunter, A million classified documents at the Chinese funded Penn Center in Pennsylvania, some documents stored in his garage they ain't ever supposed to have because he's never been president. That's beside the point. Point is, magically now he can't, he's.

Speaker 1: 8:23

And so the in February, before an election in November, and hasn't been just three years, hasn't been just since his inauguration. His is implementation, his being plugged into that office, the installation of Joe Biden as air quote President of these United States. No, my friends now you know before that he couldn't put two sentences together when he was running. He was having problems then, but now, all of a sudden, now the media and the dim ducrats, well, they have found the Washington swamp version, political version of Jesus. They've all come together, couldn't buy y'all and decided that you know, you know, I did kind of notice that, you know, seem like he had a little trouble putting something together the other day and they fed him to the wolves, supposedly to shore up the fact that this is not true, that he is in fact a solid, solid brain surgeon. He hasn't done it in forever. They sling his ass solo behind the podium out there to the press and one of those little side rooms at the White House ish area.

Speaker 1: 9:55

Hell, even Peter Ducey, who is known for ripping Biden to fresh asshole, occasionally played it soft. I don't have to clip up. He was on Fox and I forgot he was talking to him. Oh, what's his name? Jesse Waters was talking to Ducey saying, hey, you know what was your take away from that? You could tell. And Ducey was like, no, look, you know he's in prison. He's got a lot going on everything and yeah, he's got some problems and all, but it wasn't. It wasn't as bad as you're making it out to me. This is Peter. This is Ducey saying that.

Speaker 1: 10:36

Oh, that was not an effort to have Joe shore up his look, that was literally the White House throwing his ass to the wolves intentionally so the press could all have their personal sound bite to take back and go. We asked him this question and here was his answer yeah, they've all got religion now. They all are on board. They're all you. It's like suddenly the clouds have parted in, the sun rays are shining down upon a pot of gold. That is the truth. That says Joe Biden is a dementia patient. It says our ever truthful and ever aware media. I mean, you got to get up some kind of early to get ahead of these guys. They're on the case man. There they are, the sleuth of all sleuths. They show up sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp. They should sharp geniuses.

Speaker 1: 12:05

Now, that being said, I would like to say this, and for those new to you, this is kind of how this show works. I never really say the obvious. I said I think I said the part that all of us are thinking and so we can all kind of nod together, going, yeah, because we need each other to misarrate some, because because those that are in the media and those that are in Washington DC can't seem to be able to see the damn obvious, so we had this. This third rate podcast is literally a self check exercise to make sure we're all not going collectively mad With a mad man at the microphone. For that very reason, why wouldn't you I don't, I don't know what go here, but I'm gonna go here. If you have not been agreeing would be for the past three or four years.

Speaker 1: 13:14

You're an idiot. I said it a straight set it. That is self a grand dicing. That is pompous, that is, it's masturbatory and it's thinking, with one exception, I'm right, and by that I'm talking about especially this specific instance, if you haven't noticed that Biden's had problems till now, because the press says so, because Washington DC is acknowledging it, because the, the, the, the thing that blows crap in your face all the time. Your particular media outlet now recognizes or has discovered that, that, magically, this daughter's reports come out and, oh my god, hey, who even knew?

Speaker 1: 14:09

If you're, if you vocalize and believe that script, please don't vote, don't vote. Don't drive a car. Please don't have sex with anyone, especially if it could pitch it by condoms. If you, if you, if you go along, if you're, if you're suddenly, now magically, aware that Biden has some sort of mental faculty issue, put condoms in your purse, in your wallet, in your nightstand, in the glovebox, or your car, in your lunchbox, in your locker at work. He'll put them, put them at, put them, put them in your just your coat pockets. Don't leave home without them and Stay home. Pretend it's COVID how you took nine jabs anyway. Just pretend COVID is still, pretend that COVID was, you know, is out there and it's gonna eat your face and and just get that, get that coat, get it, get it. Get no procreation for you. If you have children, adopt them out the people that will put them in private school. You might be able to save them.

Speaker 1: 15:45

If you've recognized this fact about Biden over the past several years, yet you haven't said anything for Fear of broaching that subject or Hurting someone's feelings, are not wanting to stir the gravy at the Christmas or Thanksgiving table. Please follow the suggestions for group number one, because we're talking about the seat that is the president of our nation and it matters. Now the rest of us have been again having listening to give zero and we're saying little things like it's about fucking time, now time. Yes, that Reverb is my cheap mic stand. It's all the springs in it. It was really good, but it it picks up like if I client something. Yeah, this is leading to the second part of this episode.

Speaker 1: 17:29

And Girls, you know I love you. I Love my ladies in the audience. You heard Mrs Do. You didn't hear cuz she hears the red light comes on for recording. She runs like she's on fire, which keeps it does keep her out of my hair when I'm recording. I Think I'll just leave it lit all the time.

Speaker 1: 17:51

I'm a dad of adult daughters. I have a 16 year old granddaughter. I Love my ladies. Okay, but I'm gonna ask them to kind of sit back a minute and and sit this one out Because this is for my men's and the audience, me and my buddies Get your head out your asses. Get your head out your asses. Now, I'm not saying that applies to every guy within the sound of my voice, but it applies. If it doesn't apply to 100 of them, then we got a problem, so we got a problem, so we're gonna address it. All right, take your rightful, rightful Social place and roll back and help put this nation back on top and this world back on top.

Speaker 1: 19:15

Where is this tied, abiding and all this stuff? It ties right here Since the 60s and the Gloria Steinem bullshit, whether it be in social circumstances or the courtroom. We know what we're talking about here. Legality matters, business matters, and I'll give a perfect example of that in a minute.

Speaker 1: 19:48

No matter what it is, you have been a feminized for far too long. I expect you, a holes my brothers To be open indoors, to be saying maims and serves properly, to be going out there and busting your hump every way you can, every any, in any possible way you can. To be taking care of business, to be put putting food on the table, have yourself mentally and emotionally straight and wear Carry a big stick and walk softly. This thing has gone sideways since the beginning of all this diversity crap and this women's right crap. I don't know how you guys were raised, but here's how this worked. My dad had the power of veto on everything. My mama gave him zero lip. That being said, my mama ran everything else and you didn't give her a cross eye Lest you die an early death.

Speaker 1: 21:44

A guy is to worship the ground that a woman walks on, and a woman is supposed to be worthy of it. This is all going somewhere. If the gal wants to man up and go out into the workforce this is where I was going a while ago that's fine. But men have been there the whole time. We are crude creatures, we are assholes, we are rough and we are tumble and we are dickheads. And as soon as you all showed up, you weren't part of that world. We had to bend that world to your whimsy. We'd decarpet bagging. Legal friends Don't believe me. Tell a dirty joke.

Speaker 1: 22:38

Guys do it all the time Working on building something Bridges, houses, whatever else. If we're in the boardroom, if we're at the gym, if we're riding around and running around being dumbasses, we're on the golf course, we're doing there, we're playing with cars or cars. Whatever we're doing, bullshit's involved. We don't understand you girls, so we just generally talk about y'all's reareans or y'all's boobies. That's what we do in various other parts in the nether regions Our conquers of it, our short sightings of it, our total misunderstandings of it. What the hell are they even thinking? Dear Lord, she's on the phone, I better get moving.

Speaker 1: 23:28

And that twisting and turning and the burying of reality Of having you guys injected into our world and then, on top of it, worse, you won't take care of our world back home. The incentive to be a gentleman and to be and to take care of things and to be able to go out and kill bears and keep the monsters away from the front door and be the bread winner yeah, that's getting thin. So we have a make up neighborhood and make believe of our society and our nuclear family and our workforce and everything else. Is it a societal breakdown? It's still standing, but does it serve the better goal and the reality of things? It does not.

Speaker 1: 24:29

Does that mean there are times a guy shouldn't put an apron on and tidy up and take care of things if mom is no longer there or she's sick or injured? Yep, just saying the ladies should take care of it in case the old man's not doing. Well, that's life. I don't care. Rich man, poor man and a lot fair in the universe, your struggles are what make you great. That's not self help talking, don't believe me. Look at Elvis Presley. Elvis had everything except himself and he finally died from it. Fact my lovely sister in law tells me all the time I just had a million dollars, honey, can I get you anything? One million dollars, she says Honey, if that child had a million dollars she'd have a million and one problems. That costs more than a dollar to fix.

Speaker 1: 25:34

That artificial reality that is the so called reality that we have today is why we allow the press to suddenly get religion and figure out that Joe Biden is mentally incompetent. We have gotten in the habit of not being in the habit of day to day of reality, of this or that or whatever. The JP. You said the men, what about the women? What about the lady? Folks will be. I ask you to be quiet. I ask you to sit back and just let us handle this for a second, because it starts with the men folk having their heads out of their asses. That doesn't mean be a jerk, guys, that means put your spine back in.

Speaker 1: 26:40

And when all that mishmash starts around you at work or at home and this tick tock mentality world, well, you should have heard what Gloria said about I don't God by the honey, I don't give a shit, it only affects my home because you bring it in here with you, but off your feet before you come back in my house. As my house. We're not gossiping this house. We're going to try to raise these kids. We're going to try to love everybody. We can forgive and forget when we have to say please and thank you, keep your promises, respect each other, be thankful. We'll hurt us, talk to Jesus, and that do we want. To make sure the kids are fed, make sure we don't bounce a check. I'll make sure we got groceries. That's it. I point it to the man because it starts with us fellas.

Speaker 1: 27:52

And what a fella does have? A good one more than anything. Doesn't have to be rich, doesn't have to be good looking, hasn't got to be genius, hasn't got to be anything. You can ask a woman all day long what she really, really wants in a man, a real man, because most women wouldn't know what to do with one. If they had one, they're still going to pour them out of there and be a dumbass. Every great man I've ever known and every great gal I've ever known that had a great man, I'll agree that that guy had integrity. And integrity is telling it like it is no matter where you are, what's going on, what's up, politically correct or not, socially correct or not, joe Biden, you've had a problem for years and when you know little, simple truths like that, the rest becomes obvious media. You're all liars politician, all of your fakers and liars. Jill Biden and the rest of that family and the rest of the Democratic Party.

Speaker 1: 28:57

I'm not a fan of Joe Biden. I've never have been in the 50 years he's been in business up there and I'm old, so I can qualify and say that. What I will tell you is this my mother died with dementia. I would have never, ever put her through the shit. Y'all put her through.

Speaker 1: 29:17

Jill Biden, you are a terrible person, jill. She doesn't run the White House. She doesn't do anything. She is the man's wife, cia White House staff. I don't give a shit who you are. I'm the president's spouse. I'm gonna go to hell and this is where we are as a society.

Speaker 1: 30:03

As long as you keep the illusion up, it's good man. Good to go Again. No illusions. The reality of things. Ladies, if you don't like, you gotta let him be get out of his house. If you're there for love and you find that guy to be respectable and worthy, with a little bit of loving prodding, guide him Behind. Every great man is an amazed mother-in-law Any more of it. So no super bowl from me, no bullshit about Joe Biden's mental capacity and no crap in my house.

Speaker 1: 31:12

That said, I need to get off this mic. Go back to my mean ass old wife. Wish her a good night and apologize to her for giving her grief. On the opening she ran like a scalded dog pretty good for an old gal with cancer. Proud of her. She needs to get on the mic one day and hang out with us. You guys be amazing.
