here's constitutional scholar stephen colbert removing the guy who tried to overthrowie a democratic election is actually pro democratic. that's like saying it's anti hand to keep the fox out of the henhouse. let the chickens decide whether i he finds them delicious. but did you actually kind of hear how casually colbert says the phrase removinge guy. the guy? we're just removing the guy, you know, the guy who 74 million people voted for last time. you know, we're just going to remov people. e them. who cares what 74 million people want? it's pro-democratic. it's pro-democratic to ignore the will of the people. democrats are treating this like the civil war., whichr, they promised would happen if trump got elected. remember? >> they say if trump's elected,o colorado's gone. >> you got to give it upf for colorado, the first state to legalize weed and legalized trump. yeah, they banned him from the ballot. if trump ends up winning in 2024, don't be surprisehid if colorado suddenly becomes east utah. are democrats planning to start a second civil war because this is going to end the sam

that is the one that got me on the stephen colbert show. i was really looking at, where did capitalism come from? where did the corporation come from, central currency come from? i traced it back to the late ages. there was a growth of a new peer-to-peer economy. after the crusades there was a marketplace they learned how to do from the desire and they brought -- from the bazaar and they brought it back and we had a trading class. into that market until the 1980's. air stock or seek as the middle class got the feet, so they came up with two great ideas, one was central currency. it said you are not allowed to have a transaction unless you borrow money from the central treasury at interest. so now because there is interest built into the economy, the economy has to grow just to stay the same. it looks fine for colonialism as long as you keep going faster and faster. the chartered monopoly said you have a monopoly charter to make shoes and everyone else was a shoemaker had to be an employee for the shoe company and that has come down to us as

my personal choice, stephen colbert. >> good conversation in between. >> can you do conversation whilepular. you can talk and still play. >> is it trend based like peloton? >> you have to look at the recalls, it was a pandemic darling. then you have names like lifetime fitness. you have a more premium consumer at lifetime. you have planet fitness that will be a pick for the glp-1 drugs. people transitioning looking for a place to work out. >> you think this is happening not because the cardio machines are more expensive but the weighs loss drugs create weight loss and a little bit of muscle loss, and that's why there's a trend? what's the reason for the weight loss -- the weight -- >> muscle gain. >> as you lose weight on the drugs, in order to be on these drugs, technically the fda requires you have some sort of physical activity. who is monitoring that? who is maintaining that? that's left unanswered. that's why folks will be turning to gyms to work out more. cardio is not dead in my life. >> i'm very into pilates, there's no public stock. >> and boutique fitness is another place peo
