Taco Bell has launched a limited-time spicy crispy chicken crunch wrap slider featuring Diablo Ranch or all-white meat nuggets, a new addition to its menu available at participating U.S. locations. The episode quickly shifts into a satirical and in-depth discussion about Cuba’s "special period" — the 1990s economic crisis that followed the collapse of the Soviet Union. Without Soviet subsidies, Cuba’s economy collapsed, leading to severe shortages, rationing, and a return to horse-drawn transport. The hosts argue that central planning failed, while capitalist countries like Poland and Vietnam achieved growth by opening their markets. The U.S. blockade on Cuba is criticized as counterproductive, with the hosts suggesting that soft power and cultural influence would be more effective than economic sanctions. The narrative blends historical facts with sharp, humorous commentary, including absurd personal anecdotes about foot wiggling, internet culture, and niche interests. Ultimately, the episode critiques rigid ideologies, advocating for a hybrid economy and emphasizing the futility of ideological confrontation. It also highlights the irony of global political posturing, from U.S. sanctions to cultural references like Kneecap dressing like Hamas, while maintaining a tone of irreverent, self-aware satire. The discussion concludes with a broader reflection on humanity’s desire to return to simpler, nostalgic times — a recurring theme in the hosts’ commentary.

who think opposite like you know he we have him who we love very much and then we also have the
iranian republican guard we got that and that's just too that's like oil and water like they're
just not gonna mix and not gonna hang out and that's okay I want him to have a place here and
I I don't you know we don't follow him from the history I ain't his account but I do follow him
from christy comedy when you think about it yeah I mean it's like the world is like a jail you look
at jail right it's just not a place to be and I don't you know we don't follow him from the history
everyone hangs out but they accept each other on the yard but they all got their different gangs
the world you got your ayatollah and your shia muslims over here and then you go over to america
and you got a nice gay barefoot community over here yeah like go down a little bit and what
what I will say is this man's very healthy if you look because go down keep going down keep going
down um there's uh one where yeah so we got a couple of these couple of these you might notice
some familiar faces um yeah go to this one see all the way to the left and then you got a couple
of these guys that are like the third row where he's going to wiggle them see yeah go go to that
one see he's got really good foot dexterity you see how he can he can really like wiggle his toes
and move them see like I can't I can't do that you see like if you ask me to wiggle my toes
see I can't I can't I can't wiggle them so this is not what he wants no cuz see like if you ask
me to spread my toes I go spread your toes you're coming to spread my toes spread your toes yeah
they don't work I can't spread them out I can't control them
you you're gonna have to go spread your toes yeah you can't that's all I can do they won't they won't
open up you're gonna need multiple surgeries on those feet dude my look look so this is me I'm
holding my foot no no no I want to point something out right now yeah I cannot see his toes from this
angle from this angle I can only see the big toe and I'm not making it up I can't see the other toes
yeah cuz they're blocking they're blocked yes they're behind the big toe and you see what
happens with my foot here yeah is is cuz right
now I'm holding it up and this is painful so my natural is just this it just flops yeah the funny
thing about your feet cuz ask me to flex my toes flex your toes you know what the funny thing is if
you left the footprint I would know you were the murderer cuz there would be no toe prints no toe
because your toes don't actually touch the ground no can't touch can you push them forward what push
the other toes forward I can't I could just move the big toe and then the one see I can only move
this one cuz it's connected but the rest of them don't move
cuz I can't see your other toes the rest of them don't move yeah I can't see it yeah cuz it's bad
right yeah yes I don't know the bottom of my feet yellow my kids tell me the bottom of my feet looks
like I dipped in a macaroni and cheese powder no but you have a big bump on the side there right
because that's that that's uh like an achilles heel like a like a corn like a it's uh some it's
some type of um it's on the bone it's like extra calcium buildup from just getting beat up and
this the and think about these puppies have been smushed into high heels multiple times
that's the thing it looks like they were shaped at a heel it looks like your toes never got the
message that there was more room in the shoe yeah and you know what's unfortunate cuz is my beautiful
baby daughter has my feet which she came out of the womb violet she came out of the womb with the
toes like this and jasmine was the first thing jasmine looked at because jasmine's got jasmine's
a beautiful beautiful girl 10 out of 10 but her feet look like princess fiona from shrek she's got
some bad she's got some flat flat feet got doubled up a lot of times it looks like she's just wearing
stubs her feet look melted into the floor so combined you know combined she's got some flat
feet combined you know jasmine's beautiful but unfortunately she's got her pop's feet right right
so that's you know and so but my daughter you know it's what it is it's better than getting
your pop's face because sometimes you look at a girl and you go she got her dad's got her dad's
face yeah he's got her dad's face unfortunately yeah it's what it is so it's better to just have
the feet yeah i mean the guy fabio 1250 wrote speechless in loop from half an hour two of my
fetishes together leather shoes and wrinkled feet that's what he likes and he wrote speechless s p e a c
h like a peach i will say this about the guy's feet he does like the feet are symmetrical yeah
he's got great feet and he's the only thing is though if he's wearing those with no socks he's
gonna have fumes he's definitely well it's a guy's foot so i can't believe any guy would want to put
that in the mouth or any guy would want to his partner he puts his feet in his mouth big yeah
so it just shows you everyone's we got different brains right with the same species different brains
there's no species on the planet interspecies that has as much variation as we do right you don't go
and one goes you know i i like uh male tiger's feet and i like women's tiger's feet right it's
just they're pretty much tigers they're just tigers and it's what it is yeah guys and these
are bears yes these are bears and cubs yeah yeah this guy's just what it is yeah handsome older
gentleman though very handsome older gentleman yeah very good very good put together a lot more
in shape than his boyfriend who's who has anteater tits right there right yes but look at this right
this is just this is just for some people
but not for me.
- Right.
- See, I'm into it, I'm okay with this.
Do you like to look at it?
Yeah, yeah.
And the Seattle dad is the other guy.
All right, good.
Yeah.
Good for these boys.
This is called bare beard brushing.
Yo, listen, there's a place for everybody.
Nick, don't you feel, how do you feel with this, Nick?
You guys are fucking gay.
Now, does this calm you down watching this?
Calms me down.
Yeah.
Calms me down.
And you know what actually really has been calming me down is petting my dog.
Calms me down.
That's what it does.
I've been picking her up like a baby.
Do you ever do that?
You pick her up like a baby and hold her?
My guys, both my dogs are way too big to pick up.
They won't let her.
Yeah, they're just too big to hold now.
My dog is 70 pounds and my other one's like 67 pounds.
They're just big dogs.
Big dogs.
Can't pick them up.
My daughters are getting so big it makes me feel weak now.
It's tough to pick them up.
Yeah, you need to go to the gym, cuz.
Yeah, my wife picks them up easier.
Yeah, your wife's in better shape than you were at the wedding with her.
Yeah, she's, my wife, I don't know, women can put them on the hip a little better.
No, you know what it is, too?
You know what it is?
They have like a hip thing.
The hip thing and also, too, even with me, I'm joking, Jazza will still pick up my 10-year-old
at times.
She just does it.
And also, kids just want to be with their ma's.
They don't really want to be with their dads.
Yeah, they don't want to be with their dads.
Well, you throw, I put my kids on my shoulders a lot.
You do shoulders?
I do shoulders a lot.
Shoulders a lot.
Big.
I do shoulders a lot and then we play a game called control your head where she just moves
my head like that and I follow the direction.
Or horsey.
You horsey go around with them, you know, on the back, horsey, or if you're doing a
workout and you incorporate them.
Use them as the weights.
You could do that.
When you're working out now with guys like us, when you got little kids, you're working
out for your kids.
There were times when my daughters were younger where I'd be like, oh, let me go into the
gym, but they wanted to play.
But now I don't do that.
I'm like, if they want to play, I'm like, this is the work.
You're working out so you can play with your kids.
Let me ask you this.
When I do this with her up and down, could that have been when I pulled it?
Well, that could have been when you pulled it, but it could have been.
I'm not 100% sure.
Because I do this.
Right.
But it's definitely, you know, making it worse.
But I mean, cuz, you got to do it to your daughters.
You got to pick up your daughters.
Yeah.
I got a crook in my back.
You got a crook in your back.
Yeah.
And I've never heard the word crook, but I like it.
Crook.
Crook.
A crack.
Don't they call it a crook or a crack?
I don't know.
Crink?
Well, you're the doctor.
You're the one who feels.
Cuz, I'll tell you this.
What's the official?
Even though I'm not a doctor, I can tell you that a crook is not medical jargon.
You've heard that, right?
My neck is crooked.
Kink.
Kink.
I got a kink in my back.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, Chrissy's got a kink on his Instagram.
Yeah.
I got a kink.
Right now, we're looking at a kink on Instagram.
Now, again, talking about our beautiful nation and the United States of America, again, what
is acceptable?
We accept everybody here, okay?
You can have an Instagram account where you're wiggling your toes, and it can get likes and
hearts, emojis, in a place like Cuba that's mostly communist.
I don't know if they'll even let you have Instagram there, okay?
Right?
Well, will they?
They probably won't.
So, again.
It's very controlled.
We're going to talk about a little time period in Cuban history called the special period,
okay?
And the island was taken over by special needs kids.
That's what it is.
Yeah.
Five, 14.
Yeah.
Could you imagine if that happened?
Yeah.
They call it the special period.
I don't know why they call this period the special period.
But it's funny.
Yeah.
But Cuba.
First of all, Cuban girls got.
Are we on the Patreon?
No, this is the YouTube.
So, Cuban girls got fun personalities.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Cuban girls are hot, and they're Jews.
Yeah.
They're Jews?
A lot of Cubans are Jews, right?
Yeah.
That's a fact.
They got Jews in all those countries.
But a lot of Cuban Jews, and they're hot.
Cuban girls are gorgeous.
Like, the Mexican president is Jewish, right?
Yeah.
I mean, this is a little too hard to take.
Yeah.
It's just.
It's just actually a little too hard to take.
Like, it's a little too much.
Like, look at this.
Go to Pin by Basque.
Now, I go, like, see down in the one more over.
I mean, yeah.
Like, it's a little too hard to take.
Because, you know, usually what snaps you out of it is you say, well, think about, like,
if she was shitting on you, and, like, her smells.
And then you're like, oh, that's nasty.
But, like, truth is, I'd open my mouth.
Yeah.
That's what I say.
Some girls, you just want to slurp their poop.
Right.
It's just what it is.
We can get in trouble from the wives, but there's nothing we can do.
Because that's the male brain going, like, I can't handle it.
Like, whatever you want, I'll slurp your poop.
Yep.
Yep.
Yeah.
I mean, look at that.
You know, I'd rather watch, you know, the fucking prayer group in Washington Square
Park.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, from the equator down, you're just going to get a nice, you're just going to
get, you know how bananas grow in certain areas?
Yeah.
Tobacco grows in certain climates.
Yeah.
Just hot women grow in certain climates, and they just look nice.
They got a golden look.
Mediterranean in Europe, all the way down to the Caribbean.
In the United States, you're just going to get yourself a nice golden babe.
That's what it is.
You're going to get yourself a golden babe.
You know, and I like saying the word babe.
We talked about the babes of Iran.
Yeah.
I like to now talk about the babes of Cuba.
If you're a babe, the thing is from whatever country you're from, if you're a babe, you're
in.
That's what it is.
And that's the way it is at nightclubs.
That's the way it is in the world.
We have our own idea on what the immigration policy of the United States should be, and
I think all men are in agreement.
Yeah.
I don't think it's unique to the history hyenas.
I think every man has the same idea.
It's like, open the border, sex-based.
That's what it is.
Yeah.
Ladies in, guys, no.
Out.
Yeah, you're a babe.
Yeah, it's just what it is.
Now, cuz, tell me about the special period, because you were big this morning.
I said, what do you want to do?
Here's what I texted you this morning.
Yeah.
And we're back.
And we're back.
You can go, just go to, if you want to join at our highest tier, you can enjoy some of
our text messages.
They're a little less.
It's a PC.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's what it is.
They're NC-17.
Patreon.com slash history hyenas, where all the fun happens.
I mean, tell me about Cuba, cuz.
Cuz.
You got on your Cuba gear today.
Cuba.
They love jamon.
Jamon.
Cuban sandwich.
It's just jamon and mustard.
My name is Cuban Pete.
I'm the king of the salsa beat.
And my pedo maracos, I go chick, chicky, boom, chick, chicky, boom.
That's from The Mask.
Yeah.
Cubans, you know, Miami is mostly Cuba.
They're mostly Cuban.
Miami.
They're mostly Cuban, the sons and daughters or grandchildren or direct refugees from the
island of Cuba who tend, who tend to vote to the right.
Right.
They turn to right, vote to the right and they don't like Castro.
They get very offended by Castro.
Oh, I thought they liked him.
No.
In Miami?
Oh, not Miami.
Right, right, right.
Yeah, not Miami.
So, Cuba's an island.
It's 90 miles away.
It's off the coast of Florida.
It's so close to us.
And it's one of the two fully communist countries left.
There's only two left.
North Korea and Cuba.
Cuba.
I mean, you got Laos and you got Vietnam and you got China.
But those three countries have opened up their markets.
Right.
And what's happened when they've opened up their markets is that those countries have
started to do real good.
Right.
Unfortunately.
They've done.
And I get it.
Look, I hate capitalism too.
It's arrogant.
It's like the Patriots.
They always win.
Yeah.
And they're annoying about it.
Yeah.
Just once, I would love to see a country have a financial turnaround.
And it was due to the long-term economic effects of Hassan Piker's live streams.
Yes.
But we haven't had that yet.
Right.
We have not had that yet.
Yeah.
That was a wild thing you sent me.
Yeah.
But so far, it's been capitalism that just seems to work.
But Cuba don't got none of that.
They don't have any of that.
They don't got any of that.
Now, Cuba.
Are you a capitalist kid?
I'm a capitalist cutie.
I like capitalism big.
But I think that somebody was telling me that Trump said that he's going to take Cuba for
the United States.
Did you see that?
Yeah.
He just said, I'll do what I want with it.
Do I have a video of that?
Yeah.
Some places probably.
He just goes, what are you going to do about Cuba?
He said, I'll do it.
I'll decide and I'll do whatever I want with it.
I mean, it would be nice to have Cuba at 90 miles off the coast of Florida.
It'd be nice because there's some babes in Cuba.
There's some babes.
But right now, what him and Rubio are doing, unfortunately, is they're straining.
They're strangling Cuba.
Why?
What are they doing?
They've got a nice little blockade on it.
They're not letting any oil come in.
They're really, they're putting a squeeze on.
And is that because, is the fear there that, you know, with the potential war with Russia
or in Iran and all that, that they don't want Cuba to like, they want it to be like a staging
ground or something for their enemy?
Why are they choking out Cuba?
Because it's in our hemisphere, the Monroe Doctrine, and we're going China out.
We're taking everything.
It's all going to be American.
We're not going to, we're, you know, we've had this policy since, you know, since the
50s or whatever, all the way back to JFK that like, you know, we have sanctions on
Cuba and Cuba is our moral enemy and they're communists and we're capitalists.
It's a Cold War proxy, you know, Bay of Pigs, all that, you know, the deal.
Right.
So it was a capitalist place.
It was a corrupt capitalist place.
But it's not anymore.
And yeah, it was under Bautista and the guys before him and they were, you know, it was,
it became a mafia playground and corrupt.
And, you know, there was a lot of wealth inequality and tourism was big and casinos and shit.
And then Castro came in and he said, viva Cuba and we're going to, for the workers and we're
kicking capitalism out.
And they became communist cuties.
It's communist cuties.
Sergio went to Cuba.
I know.
Do you know that?
Should we call him?
Let's call him up.
Let's call him up.
Yeah.
Because I don't think he loved it, but I think he's going to say it was great.
Let's see.
You know who went to Cuba and just was honest, like just told, Angelo Lozada was
like, I hated it.
Did he go with Sergio?
He was like, you go to a store and there's like one box of band-aids on the shelf.
You got to go louder on it.
Yeah.
Let's see.
Hello.

so
you know
Cuba
had the revolution
and then
from there on
America was like
no bueno
no bueno
no bueno
we don't like you
and so they were like
we're not gonna trade with you
and then
blah blah blah blah blah
and then
the Soviet Union
see well
a lot of people
what I find interesting
is a lot of people
don't know that the Soviet Union
used to subsidize
a lot of these countries
cuz they wanted them to work
they wanted
they were trying to spread communism
we were trying to spread capitalism
everyone always thinks
it's just us
right
that was doing like
the influence
no
the soft power
and the
you know
we were doing it with the CIA
and stuff like that
they were doing it with like
subsidies
so they were sending like
cheap oil
they would send like
rice
they would send money
they were
you know
they were helping Cuba
a lot
right
right
and then the Soviet Union
was doing that for a lot of countries
they were doing that for Vietnam
they were doing it
just like we were doing it
for other countries
they were sending it to the
Eastern Bloc
Hungary, Romania
the miscellaneous white countries
yes
Poland
yeah
and then they crumbled
they overspent
and then when they had their
when Gorbachev had the peristroka
and he was like
alright we're cutting off
all of our aid
to these countries
and then boom
so
the teat
the teat stopped for Cuba
and then Cuba
completely crashed
and that is what we call
the special period
yeah
and that
brings us
that was 1991
that was a big time
you were like
just a little baby
I was a little
seven year old little baby
you were a seven year old baby
this was big news on TV
I was what we call
a Hitler youth
yeah
it was a Hitler youth day
yeah
but this was a time
it was all over the news
the
the
the East German wall
came down
Germany got reunited
the Eastern Bloc fell
right
Soviet Union broke up
and people were going like
communism's over
right
like oh
it just didn't work
yeah
and then a little kid
kid named Mondami
was born somewhere
in Sri Lanka or something
yeah Uganda
Uganda
and they were like
bring it back
but wait
so it's theoretically
then
so the only two
but what makes a country
communist
like why is Cuba
and North Korea
like they don't have
you cannot trade with them
at all
zero
America doesn't
trade with Cuba
but then
Obama tried to open it up
a little bit
he did for a little bit
and then Trump came in
and reversed all that
and what's the reason
why Trump reversed it
was to squeeze them
was to get them out
so he wants to get
the who out
the Russians
no he wants to get
the regime out
he wants the regime out
he wants the regime changed
just like in Iran
he wants the communists out
so does that
Rubio's Cuban
and he wants them out
so could it theoretically
could we start dropping bombs
on Cuba too
no we're not going to drop
bombs on Cuba
that's not going to happen
no we're not going to do that
they're going to try to do this
diplomatically
I think we're going to run out
of them over Iran
I think we're running low
yeah
I think we're lighting it up
yeah
and I think we're going to run low
I mean we don't have
infinite amount of bombs
no I know
but pretty soon
we're going to have to buy
we're going to have to have
the made in China
that would be ironic
if we start
if the only place
to turn to is Iran
we got to buy the bombs
from Iran
and then use them
yeah
I was about to say
because if we eventually
buy in China
do you think they're going
to be made in China
and they're going to
bomb themselves
yeah it's probably
what it is
yeah
yeah no I don't think
we're going to bomb Iran
but what we
what was happening
so then we had this
period called
the special period
it's a funny name
it's a funny name
for a very horrible thing
so I don't know why
it's called the special period
yeah
because it was
things got really bad
it's not special
it wasn't special at all
no
no it wasn't special
it was
it was
when Soviet Union
collapsed
then Cuba's
kind of
subsidy collapsed
they were subsidizing them
they were living off them
right
it was almost like Cuba
was Nick
still living at his mom's house
right
and then his mom was like
you got to move out
right
and then
Nick was like
what
yeah
and then so Nick went
through a special period
right
he went through a special period
he went through a special period
so that's funny
if we were good
if the special period
if we were going to put
the Cuba special period
into a person
we would have it
dressed like Nick
it would be dressed like
NWO shirt
orange sneakers
yeah
orange sneakers
eating oatmeal he made from home
exactly
bringing a thermos
kind of stuff
yes
yeah
so
and then
Soviet Union
the parents said
we can't
we can't give you
we can't pay for this anymore
right
you got to go get a job
right
you got to go do something
right
and so Cuba panicked
and they're like
what are you talking about
yeah
I like to sit around
and fucking just smoke weed
and you know
scroll my phone all day
yeah that's what it is
I like to jerk off to wrestlers from the 90s.
So, their economy, like, collapsed quick.
Right.
It was 80% of their trade got lost.
Just went straight down.
Their fuel imports were gone, and their economy collapsed.
And here's what's crazy about it.
It happened so fast, I think their GDP, like, shrunk, like, 30% immediately.
Some number.
Who cares?
It's egghead shit.
The point is, they started bringing back horse and buggies.
Wow.
Yeah.
In 1991.
In 1991, they started bringing back horse and buggies.
Holy smokes.
And their grid, you know, their grid's been going down forever.
Because right now, it's relevant because there's a flotilla that went there to save.
We got flotillas going.
Well, Greta Thunberg?
But it's Hassan Piker and a couple others.
They went on a flotilla or a flytilla.
Right.
And they got in a plane, and they're going to give aid to the Cubans because there's
a blackout.
There's, like, they're getting no electricity.
They have to ration the electricity.
So, what are they going to do to help them?
Well, they're fucked right now because they were getting their oil from Cuba, and America
just took out their guy, Maduro.
Right.
So, now we're going, no.
And now we're blocking all their oil.
Yeah, this Irish hip-hop group, Kneecap, joined, and they dress like Hamas, right?
Yeah.
Now, what is a flotilla?
I don't, that's what I'm saying.
Because there was a flotilla that went to Gaza, too.
What is a flotilla?
So, it says, aid delivered to carry approximately 30 to 50 tons of supplies, including rice,
beans, medicine, and roughly 100 solar panels to help with the island's power shortages.
The main ships were expected to dock in Havana March 21st, 2026, and the flotilla set sail
from the coast of Mexico.
Yeah, I mean, the, what Cuba has is tons of sugar.
They got a lot of sugar.
They used to be a prosperous, they used to make so much sugar.
Now, the amount of sugar they make is less than the sugar that they made in, like, in
the 1880s.
Really?
Yeah, it's just, like.
Azucar.
Yeah, azucar.
You just can't get them to produce the sugar the way that they did.
You know, it's centralization, right?
Right.
So, it's like, the government runs everything, and so they went through this special period
where they started, they just, you had to pick up your date in a horse and buggy.
It's what it is.
You had to get Cinderella back home before midnight.
So, it's not like, it's just, it's pretty simple that, like, because I know somebody
could talk us into it, why communism could be better and show you, but the truth is,
you don't have to rack your brain.
Communism just doesn't work with human beings.
I thought we were there.
It just doesn't work.
I thought we had reached a period where we were like, unfettered capitalism doesn't work,
right?
We saw the stock market crash.
We, you know, we got close to unfettered capitalism and like, oh, this is, you know, it creates
inequality, right?
Because you look at it, it's like, they both create inequality.
It's funny when communists say, like, oh, capitalism creates inequality.
You go, well, how about communism?
Yeah.
It's just Jordan and LeBron.
That's all it is.
I mean, yes, capitalism creates inequality.
We're seeing it now, right?
But look at communism.
I would say communism inequality.
Might even be more because there's actually less people at the top and more people at
the bottom, right?
So there's no middle.
Yeah.
There's nobody.
Nobody has any money in Cuba besides the tippity tippity top.
No.
And the interesting thing about this is I think people just think that like, we're the
only ones who does like foreign meddling and stuff like that.
But, you know, the United States, the USSR was like giving them stuff like to prop them
up.
Right.
Like we do with our proxies.
Right.
So they were buying sugar.
Like at a high price, like they were overpaying for the Cuban sugar.
Right.
In order to help Cuba.
Right.
We're sending them cheap oil and letting them resell the oil to make money.
Right.
It was all it was like it never was a sustainable thing.
It was propped up by the Soviet Union.
By the Soviet Union.
Yeah.
And I saw I just saw that Raul Castro in 2006 Fidel's brother.
I'm sorry.
Fidel Castro's fortune in 2006 was 900 million.
No, no, no.
Yeah.
Should we pick it up?
Should we pick it up, Timmy D?
Sure.
Pick it up.
Ask him what he thinks about Cuba.
Or maybe not.
Right.
Should we do it?
Tim.
What's up?
What's up, baby?
We're on the pod.
We're on the hyenas.
How?
Which?
Who?
You and Yannis?
Me and Yannis.
History hyenas.
We were just talking about Cuba.
What's going on?
What do you guys think about that?
We think that, you know, Hassan and.
Is Yannis there?
Yannis is here.
Yannis, can you hear me?
I can hear you.
Awesome.
So a mozzarella sticks here.
Cheeseburger deluxe.
Thanks.
Chris, keep going.
Thank you, Yannis.
Medium rare.
Thank you.
Chris, keep going.
See?
He wants the Greeks back in the diners.
We were saying before, we want the world.
Chris, back in the diners.
Yeah.
We want the world the way it was with all the Greeks back in the diners, the Koreans
back in the fruit markets.
Yes.
The Irish back in uniform.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think the Irish need to go back to running New York City.
Respect them.
Donnie, respect the call to prayer.
But the Irish with their stubby little penises and their violent tendencies need to go back
to running New York City.
They do have stubby penises.
Yeah.
No, we're just talking about, you know, the, the, the, the flotilla of influencers going
to help Cuba and we're just trying to break it down.
We were just breaking it down and we were, our conclusion is communism has never been
shown a fair shake.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't, you know, I'm against going physically to any place to help anyone.
Right.
I agree with that.
Yeah.
I don't believe in it.
I believe in doing it on the internet.
Yes.
Right.
That's how you can get things done.
Yeah.
I don't believe in physically going and being confronted with my ideas.
I would just rather.
Yes.
I don't want to see it.
Yes.
Who went?
Hassan Piker and kneecap.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But we were just talking.
Yeah.
We were talking about kneecap.
Yeah.
And they dressed like Hamas.
Well, I do like them.
You know, they are from Ireland.
So I do have to say respect to kneecap.
And, and if my agent hears this, I'll delete it.
I just, I, I hope we don't go into Cuba.
I know Cuba's weak, but everybody's, you know, we don't need this.
How about I, I want to go back to old criminal Trump.
Yes.
Right.
Like, let's just go back to con artist Trump.
Yes.
That was fun.
Yeah.
You're aren't we tired of us punching down?
I mean, I ran in Cuba.
We're punching down now.
If we not, if we didn't learn anything from the culture of sensitivity, we have to stop
punching down.
Yeah.
Well,
I mean, I guess I ran, we're punching down.
It feels like they're punching back pretty good.
Yeah.
I feel like I ran pretty well.
Um, now, I mean, I hope this ends.
I think gas is $6 or something or like on average.
Well, thank God.
Well, thank God you got your car stolen.
Yeah, that's right.
Thank God.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Thank God.
Best thing that ever happened to you.
Yeah.
Now you see, I don't look so pedestrian for getting a Tesla now, do I?
Oh yeah.
I look like a smart Jew.
That's true.
Yeah, it is true.
Now I'll call you later.
Let's hang out.
Let's all, let's all get a lunch this week.
Yeah.
I mean, I'm in, I'm, I'm back.
I had to come back to LA for some stuff, but when I'm back.
Yeah.
Because you have to just get a little way.
Once you, you know, once we saw the prayer rocks and watch the square park, there was
a lot of flights leaving New York.
I just, you know, the thing about LA is it's just white Mexican and it's fine.
You're either just doing white stuff, like saying eggs Benedict, no bread.
And then you eat the hash brown, which is worse than the bread.
And then if you're Mexican, you go see Joe coin fluffy at the arena.
Yeah.
And everyone's happy.
That's it.
Everyone's happy.
Nobody's doing anything.
Love you both.
Love you, man.
Thank you.
Bye.
Yeah, you're right.
That's what they're not telling the people is that there's such weights at the airport
because when they saw those videos from Washington square park, people just booked flights.
Yeah.
They said, see you later, alligator.
We'll see you later, buddy.
So yeah, I mean, it's just Cuba right now is getting choked.
It's getting squeezed by United States.
I personally don't think that's a good move.
I don't.
I don't.
I think soft power works better, right?
We've never gone anywhere.
Usually when we try to intervene with some or we, we can't change it from the outside.
We got to change it the old school way.
Propaganda.
Yeah.
A little Hollywood.
Yeah.
Sex.
Yes.
A little, a little, you know, a little Coca-Cola.
Switch it up.
A little music.
A little music.
This is not the way I think like what we were saying earlier in the show.
Maybe we said it on the patron is we wanted to, everybody just wants to go back to the
way it was.
Yeah.
Everybody we want.
I want the USSR to get back together.
I want the USSR.
I want Zangief from Street Fighter.
I want him back.
I want, I want the, the deep state to come back.
I don't want to know what's going on.
I like with Obama.
The curtain was full.
Maybe it was deporting more people and killing more people.
Probably who, I don't know the numbers.
It doesn't matter.
I didn't know anything about it.
Okay.
I want punked with Ashton Kutcher to come back.
I just want, I don't want to, I want the gatekeepers of Hollywood to come back.
I want movies and TV shows and people molesting everyone.
I, as I said, you know, if you want movies to get,
to get good again, you bring, get Weinstein out of the jail cell.
Let's go back to the way it was.
Yes, there were problems.
Okay.
I want to get skull fucked by priest.
Just go back.
The world was running just fine when we didn't know anything about it.
Bring it, tell Epstein to come out of hiding.
We don't want to know about any more scandals.
We don't want to know about any of that.
Just, just, we want to go back into the confession booth and I want to be able to tell the priest
that I swore that week.
Yes.
Do 13 Hail Marys.
And that's what the concern of my week is.
Yes.
That's all.
That's all that I want.
That's all that I want as well.
We need to go back.
I just want to go back.
I want to go back into Vietnam.
Yeah.
No.
So yeah.
I want to move back to Bay Ridge.
Yeah.
Do you want to go back to Bay Ridge?
Let's go back to being single.
Do you want to raise your family to Bay, in Bay Ridge?
I want to go back to Greece.
Do you really want to go all the way back to Greece?
Would you go back?
No.
Are you going to take your family to Greece this summer?
Maybe.
Right.
You keep saying you're going to take them.
It's a little expensive right now.
I think it's a good time to book a nice little tourist trip to Cuba.
You want to go to Cuba.
I want to be to Cuba if you're okay with getting InternetX,
us only at the park and you know yeah it being dark and if Sergio if Sergio was saying it's not
that nice then you know it's not that nice because I've you know I mean he thought you know the first

thought so too I thought we were at the point going oh that didn't work oh right unfettered capitalism worked the only thing that seems to work is a mixed economy a little bit of both you put them both into it was like Cuban Chinese fusion food right you just got to put them together put them together and then they work hybrid yeah I like Cuban uh Chinese fusion I love fusion food you like fusion you were on the network called fusion and it didn't work like communism didn't work it didn't work that way yeah that's the only time fusion doesn't work didn't work it's when you're on the network yeah so technically there's five communist countries
left only one of the five Laos Vietnam China Cuba and the big one North Korea now North Korea is the big big one right and there's only two that are still ideologically and economically purely communist so the only reason why I said there's two left is because China still calls itself communist for ideological reasons but it's opened up its markets Laos has opened up its markets the
Vietnam has opened up its markets right Poland of course went in one generation from like abject poverty to now it's the 20th biggest economy in the world and they're big they have a better GDP they have a better economy than Switzerland Poland does make the dump Polish jokes do it yeah Poland has they what has what they've done is is it and it's connected I think I don't know but their GDP has went way way up and their Muslim and Jewish population has went way way down
Poland has they what has what they've done is it and it's connected I think I don't know but their GDP has went way way down I think maybe I don't know if the two related I don't know but they did become capitalist and they took off yep absolutely took off in one generation yeah one generation so it's like I don't know what we're doing right and then it's like you look at the countries that were communist that are doing well now Vietnam's doing well right Laos is starting to do well they're six percent growth China we know what happened in China
they became a powerhouse yeah right because they adopted capitalism so there's only two holdouts left so I think part of what Trump is doing and markers were doing is going like we're going to stomp this last of these last ones out North Korea they can't stop out you'll never get North Korea will be communist forever it'll just be what it is right they got a nuke they got a nuke they got a nuke yeah if you got a nuke you're going to be left alone yeah you need a nuke because North Korea would throw a nuke at the United States no problem yeah they have a nuke so there's not you could do King John who's just he's it's just
if somebody decided to truly throw a nuke at us do we really have defense capabilities to stop it or it was just a test I don't know but I think we talked about I think we would be alive a little longer because they'd hit our nuke arsenals which are in like Wyoming and Montana they're not gonna hit they're not gonna hit New York I think they'll go for that first defensively they'll try to take those out first they probably will hit New York unfortunately yeah when you're the cool kid that's you know they're not gonna they're not trying to hit Pottstown Pennsylvania I'm ready because I as I've told you I've got a
30-day supply of powdered fettuccine Alfredo I and I have iodine tablets and I have masks and that's a truthy woothy cuz I got a pee big should I hold it in and do the patron names should I go into the patron names with just a fucking bladder full of piss or should I piss what do you pause it and go pee yeah you think so yeah you don't think I should just let it rip it's just start pissing down my pants no all right just took a nice pee pee yeah you look a nice flow yeah nice flow we're ready to give you some of the patreon names patreon
