I'm sure some of you can relate to this. One of the most difficult things in life is to watch a podcast with Evan and Andy, while at work, and try to hold in your laughter. It's quite impossible. I could only imagine the guy next to my office listening to my ass snicker and shoot short bursts of air from laughter, sounding like an absolute idiot orca whale coming up for air every other minute. Thank you gentlemen, for always being awesome.

13:15 I love doing crap like this. Once I was in the car with a colleague and she needed to take her mom flowers for her birthday. When we got there I grabbed the flowers and walked in pretending to be a delivery boy. I told the mom, who had never met me, that the florist was trying to save paper so we were using body parts to sign for deliveries. I offered my neck or my hand. She looked at me like I had 3 heads but signed the palm of my hand...reluctantly. We all laughed for an hour or so.

Rather presumptuous of Evan to assume people who use a french press don't use a burr grinder, weigh the coffee, heat the water up to a precise temp, measure the volume/weight of the water, and control the steep time. As he was rattling off all those things it was essentially just a check list of all the steps I follow when making my coffee iN a FreNcH pResS.

[@tonycarpaccio9550]

I have no idea what the hell he is talking about when he goes after the French Press. I make my coffee exactly the same every morning, measured, timed, it's completely repeatable and replicated. Idk what his deal is against it maybe if it was the Freedom Press it would be alright haha

@@tonycarpaccio9550 I know BRCC sells a French press and if they don't already call it that, they need to. I always wanted to know why he thought the French press was so terrible, being the coffee nerd that he is I assumed he had some inside knowledge as to why it was inferior but at least now I know his bias is founded on a false premise. I wonder if he knows a lot of people who use a pour over just eyeball it and don't follow a coffee to water ratio.

Morning gentlemen good times as always when creepin into listen…Ill make this short probably will go unnoticed anyway but if by chance you guys catch this I hope it may put a different view on whats going on in our country and I know this perspective can be a hard one to swallow but you know how evil life can be unfortunately…I think the issue of what party you vote has absolutely nothing to do with the insanity tearing through the nation, doesn’t matter your political beliefs theres been an ongoing war against the constitutional rights and freedoms enjoyed by all those blessed enough to call themselves Americans, made possible by men (& women) like you…I hate to say it but most if not all of fed agencies have been weaponized against ‘we the people’…Ofcourse theres many rank and file that still serve with integrity and honor to the oaths weve all sworn too however thats not making the cut…how is it that you can be denied your first amendment and be banned on these platforms, how can 90billion of military weaponry be left for them in Afghanistan while breaking laws and disregarding the constitution to rob us of our weapons, how many ppl are aware of all the history of the Bundy Ranch, BLM and Fbi actions during that shitshow, where they were poisonong their water, killing their cattle and burying them in mass graves, literally were actively trying to murder the Bundy family? Amin Bundy was thrown in fed prison for 2 years without ever being charged with a crime, the severity of this came to light when the AIC (cant remember his name) was the one to become a whistle blower because of how egregious the situation was? That was the HRT Team too btw…Our country has been infiltrated and under inversion and subversion, none of this is by accident, burning down of what 15+ of our food processing plants and farms, crackhead pedo hunter, WEF and the ‘Youll own nothing and be happy’ theme as Blackrock buys all housing in the country ect…If none of these few examples is good enough to question some things then Mike should be all you need to know about, how the fuck is that justified? It cant and wont be, anyone that they see as a threat, that being those of us that do love this country and all the freedoms we have esp the ones that keep tyrannical gov from doing whatever they please with you is a threat to the establishment, the ones that control shit arent of stellar character to say the least and going after giys like Mike as well as countless others isnt a slipup or mistake, its make an example out of a frw to discourage others from following suit, hard to grasp but theres been way too many ff and ops run by 3letters to entrap and coerce, look at whats come out about gov witmer, jan 6, some of these active bang situations, the ones pulling the triggers have had regular contact with active and retired agents…’Its easier to fool a man then to convince him hes been fooled’ our eyes and ego and values make us not wanna see whats right infront of our faces sometimes…sorry for the novel, tried to keep it short, as always Thank You for your sacrifices and continued service, you guys are much appreciated, Mike if ya see this you too brother, you have more support than you know🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@Jenufir]

Still amazes me that people do not understand that they have no first amendment rights on private platforms. It's the same as any other business with a terms of service, or rules. It's akin to walking up to a store that has a sign that says "no shirt, no shoes, no service". If you think it's your "right" to walk into that store without a shirt or shoes, you will quickly be told to leave. That is THEIR right, as a business owner. Just as it's the right of a platform to not allow cussing, political lies, radicalism, or bullying, on their platforms. People don't have to like TOS, or rules. But, they do have to follow them, or they will lose their accounts. It's common sense... which this country seems to be lacking a lot of, these days.

[@rho1581]

That’s the debate isn’t it. This is the public square “social media”. This is where the struggle surges for Internet rights that should exist to protect consumers. You are a product not a person to these tech monopolies. Free speech above enforced silence. Our rights against a protected corporate super class of citizens.

[@Jenufir]

@@rho1581 I don't think it's that. I mean we had full freedom of speech (aside from threats), from the minute the internet came to be, at least all the way back to my first AOL account, in 97. I think the real problems stem from just the last four to five years. When politicians themselves, used social media as their microphone to spread lies and hatred, and tearing down people with ease, and almost radicalize some of their supporters, these social media giants were then forced to step in and begin to ban certain "speech". I have no problem with them doing so. It's their absolute right, and it was the right thing to do. I only wish they had stepped in sooner. Because now, too many are convinced it's a means to block "truth", when most of what they think is truth, are lies and manipulation. What frightens me the most, is knowing how mad and angry people have become, while not realizing they've been manipulated. That is truly horrifying.
