Hello freak bitches. I don't need anything better than this. It's still it's still my wife Thank God. I could not have married a woman that didn't have nice tits Oh, there's a lot of women out there with little tits that are angry at you right now. Sorry, you're not real women I'm kidding. I'm kidding, but I couldn't have married one. I Respect you and I'll hang out with you. I'll let you into my shows But I'm not gonna marry If you get out of the itty bitty titty committee early and you want to go see a comedy show No, I look I respect all women. I just think I really all of them What about mean ones that kill people respect them even more? They're fighting back They're mean they're me too-ing out there Huh, you hear about the hashtag me too. No You're gonna love this Joe Rogan. There's a thing now because of Harvey Weinstein. There's a half You have women that have been sexually harassed Poundsigned me too on their social media Jesus Christ and the end you're sexually harassed. I would say it's probably a hundred percent Yeah, because it's a murky definition, you know I mean some of the stories that you hear and I look this Harvey Weinstein thing is atrocious and Guys that are like that are the reason why guys like us have to watch what we say all the sensitivity that we've been talking about is because of a few a not a few assholes. There's a lot of assholes, but And it's not just I mean we're not talking about a person trying to get late We're talking about a person who is holding employment over people right power and did you see the TMZ thing where TMZ? They were describing the nature of his contract that he had sexual assault and and Sexual harassment Lawsuits written into the contract like a waiver for him. Yeah, how much he would be fined and for one one one Person saying it it was a certain amount of money for two allegations. Oh, no shit. It was more for three It was like he was like hundred thousand 250 750 a million Wow written in like caps on how much he should have to pay No, like how much they would pay him like your or how much he would have to pay According to the contract if Weinstein treated someone improperly in violation of the company's code of contract of conduct He must reimburse TWC for the settlements or judgments. Additionally you Weinstein will pay the company Liquidated damages of two hundred fifty thousand dollars for the first such instance $500,000 for the second such instance 750 for the third and a million for each additional instance They're just imagine that they wrote this in they're complicit. They're all complicit. There's another provision He can be fired for the purport to whoa Perpetuation have you ever said that's a new ancient perpetuation. That's a weird word. Yeah, it is Perpetuation by you Weinstein of a material fraud against the company Okay, what does that mean? The question where's the fraud Lance Maroff a board member who negotiated the Weinstein 215? 2015 contract said in an interview and we've confirmed the board knew Weinstein had settled prior lawsuits brought by various women But they assumed it was to cover up consensual affairs. Sure it was the board's assumption does not constitute fraud on Weinstein's part hmm Scroll up. Let's keep going More surprisingly is how TWC fired Weinstein suppose Weinstein. No Weinstein Supposedly without giving a specific reason which could potentially violate the terms of the contract. Oh my god, that's crazy Here's the kicker even if Weinstein had committed fraud by not fully informing the board of directors The contract says before he can be fired. He has the right to mediation if that doesn't work He's entitled to arbitration. He got neither He was summarily fired and sources connected with Weinstein tell TMZ he was never given a specific reason Wow Well, he's fighting it Yeah, I love that. Where do you get the balls to fight back right now? I guess he feels like the only way to sort of reclaim some ground. Yeah I mean is that a way to look at it? Well, that's that mentality and you know at that level the power brokers that run Hollywood, you know, they're all Fucking it's Trump is like that too. It's all aggression. It's all come at you when you come at them Yeah, I mean it's got to be a crazy position to be in to be the head of Miramax Yeah, you know, I mean it's like It's the biggest it's one of the biggest right? What's the biggest? What is the biggest studio if it's not Miramax it's one of our Miramax so at the very least he's responsible for Some of the most iconic movies ever. Yeah So certainly the most Oscars of any studio in the last 20 years. So everyone's kissing his ass. Yeah massive amounts of power and This influence over people like royalty, right? Mm-hmm barks. They all come, you know everybody's at his whim Constantly hmm and then tries to fuck all these starlets like if you just stuck with like prostitutes Probably still would come out but it wouldn't come out the same way. It wouldn't have come out You know, these are well think about the fact that they covered up Sexual assault on it sounds like a weekly basis I mean this this story broke what five days ago Something like that and there's already so many women that have come out and now you've got a bounty on more women to come out Like there's some I think that there's somebody else is offering a certain amount of money for every woman that comes out against him So it's gonna be like Cosby all over again and you think about But God, but because be was drugging and rape right? No, but I just mean it's another frequently another step more evil though Right. I'm just talking about like the frequency of it and and the complicity of people that set up the meetings You covered up the lawsuits. Oh, yeah gave the women work after the meetings You know a lot of them got script deals got roles in movies Because let's a lot of them didn't walk out of the room a lot of them gave them the back rub or whatever else Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Well, that was what Whitney was talking about the other day Whitney Cummings was telling me her and one of her friends who's an actress I did their show at the Largo the other night and they were in the the green room and they were talking about how many women Literally wrote into their contract Like not wrote into it But there was an agreement that they would fuck him to get like editors cut they would fuck him to get more lines They're not. Yeah. Yeah girls like prominent actresses had sex with him to ensure that they got big roles This was written down. Some of it was agreed upon I don't know if they wrote it, but these things were agreed upon and that he always kept his end the bargain He was known she was known for hooking them up was part of how he got this whole thing to work which means every director and editor that kept those lines in Knew because editors all the time or chop you chop out whole scenes because they don't work. Yeah, but that's only That's like say like when did it happen? Did it happen before the film was shot like he would give them final cut like he would allow them to you know to be in the editing room or Was it like I will give you the choice part? Mm-hmm. Whatever it was like some sneaky deal. Yeah I mean who knows how he said it who knows how they did it. Yeah, but The idea that all these actors are coming out like I have no idea can't believe it. I'm so horrified How do you not know that I'm a road comic and I knew about it. Yeah, I'm not in the middle of Hollywood Yeah, I've known about it for 15 years. What did you know? I knew that he was a cast and couch guy Everybody knew that he was the sleazy fat I always would joke about how like I think he makes himself less attractive because it's more of a power trip for him It's more fun. Yeah. Yeah, did we have his fat gut resting on their forehead when it shoots a load in their mouth? Yeah All right, you got the part yeah next doesn't blow Doesn't wash on purpose as his balls just stink like locker rooms Yeah, it's a weird thing man It's a weird thing that that's that went on for forever in this in this industry Not this industry music the movie industry the music industry as well Sturgill Simpson was telling me some story about some guy who's a known Pedorast who is like there's he's in a similar position in the music business and like people know like you can't have like young Boys around this guy. Well, he's some big-time powerful guy. He told me the guy's name I literally can't tell you who the fuck it was But he was saying like man there's there are people in the music business that are in this exact same situation Like they fuck people to have them move on and move up and move forward
