We have special guests in the studio. Yay! Special guests. All right. Fellas, why don't you introduce yourselves starting with you! Hold on! This is Bridgetown D. I. Y. and we'll explain what that is. Introduce yourselves, please. I'm Andy. I'm Raz. I'm Joey. My name's Cameron. And you guys are from Bridgetown DIY. Do you want to give a little bit more info on what this Bridgetown DIY thing is? Cameron? Essentially, Bridgetown DIY is an idea that a lot of us had. A lot of us for a long time out in the San Gabriel Valley wanted to have a community space and a venue. Because for a fairly long time, we haven't had a stable venue. I mean, almost all of LA County hasn't really had a stable punk venue for a considerable amount of time. So we decided as friends that we wanted to get together and create a community space for bands. Not necessarily just punk bands, but bands. Anyone who wants to share their art or music or ideas can come together and share them. Yeah, locals. Awesome. Now, where are you guys based out of? Where? Where's Bridgetown? Is it? San Gabriel Valley. Yeah, it's in the San Gabriel Valley. And the name Bridgetown? It came from La Puente. La Puente. That's right. That's my freaking hometown right there. And I think I had mentioned this on the phone that the fire department has Bridgetown on their fire trucks. Hells yeah. You should go check that out. And do you guys know Bridgetown Lowriders? No, we don't. Okay, well, La Puente has their annual Christmas parade. Have you guys gone? No. No. Support your local come on DIY freaking Christmas parade? Well, actually, we only called it La Puente because we were trying to open it in La Puente. But the actual spot we're trying to open turned out to be in Baldwin Park. Baldwin Park. Okay, well, at least it's still SGV. So, I mean, it would be different if it was a toll place. It was just we had a small debate on names and stuff like that. And Bridgetown came up and we're like, yeah, yeah, it's going to be La Puente. Everybody got stoked on it. And then we didn't even realize that it was actually Baldwin Park. And not La Puente. So we're just like, whatever, we'll stick with it. Well, just to finish the Bridgetown Lowriders, they had the Christmas parade and it was like so cute because they had like the Girl Scouts. And this is kind of Bridgetown, right? So then Bridgetown oldies come in with their freaking lowriders all like pimped out. And I was like, yeah, this is a La Puente fucking parade right here. Instead of Santa, you get lowriders. Yes, for real. I think he was there somewhere in the mix, but that was the part I got excited for. Now, as far as the Is it you guys just mainly do punk shows other than punk shows? You guys host, you know, art openings and other stuff. Have you guys found a venue yet or is it still in the works? I mean, we're actually in the process of trying to find a venue right now. The one that we were looking into in Baldwin Park. Yeah, it tended to be like a little on the expensive side. Yeah. So right now we're trying to look for another space in the San Gabriel Valley that we can actually like meet at so we can have our meetings at our own space. But yeah, besides the meetings, what other things could be done at the spaces? It's going to be like an art space or like a big venue. We want to have a community center where like we can have a zine library where we can have like kids and come in and have like people that we know in bands give them free like, you know, lessons on instruments like guitars, drums, whatever it may be. Yeah, that's that's that's very good. That's pretty cool. Now, how did you now how did you guys get involved with the whole DIY? Are you guys ready? Are you guys just going to shows and just like just seeing the fact that there was really no community community within the punk scene or or what? Like no, no brotherhood whatsoever? Well, I think we'll do one each one of us. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. We'll start off with that. I think I think that punk just if you're into punk, you're you're automatically just jumped into like this whole DIY scene. So, you know, punks like to do everything themselves. And I guess we all kind of just fell into that. And we just wanted to take stuff into our own hands just like everyone else did. You know, like to organize it. Yeah. Yeah. So, I mean, like, as far as like shows go and stuff like if we don't see anything being done, then let's just do it ourselves. And that's and that's and that's a good mentality. That's how that's how that's a good band form. And that's how a good collective start. Prime example is the Gilman Street Project. You know, they're really they're really good. Yeah. They're really good at, you know, bringing in bands and hosting them and helping them out. You know, as far as L. A., L. A. has some good collectives. You have what? Food Not Bombs. Yeah. Great band Resist and Exist. They help out, you know, stuff like that. That's really that's really key to the community. Now, see, I was on a little bit. So I was on the subway the other night and I got this newspaper called The Liberation, which is a social social communism newspaper. Lady goes, Hey, you know, would you like to look at the paper? I'm like, Yeah, sure. It's a dollar donation. I go, OK, give a dollar. I read it. There's some pretty cool, interesting articles in there. And it kind of reawoken the beast that used to be in me because for for some years I was totally all about DIY, you know, doing my own backyard shows, you know, producing my own music, you know, getting getting bands together and stuff like that. And, you know, and organizing stuff, you know, like, you know, Food Not Bombs in in the city. Yeah. And I think I just lost the passion with it when the whole DIY because everybody thinks of DIY in their own way. Yeah. You know, some do. Back in the day, it just got a little bit like split between like in the scene, like there's the DIY and it's like, oh, anti everything else. And it's like so it could never be like incorporated into everybody. Like there was like no unity. It basically made it like its own scene. And I think. What I started seeing was clicks. Yeah. Like, like sort of forming the kids who wanted who were doing the DIY. They were they were doing their thing. And you know what? They moved on to bigger and better things or they actually got caught up and now they're living within the system they hate. Yeah. But it usually happens now. Now you're I'm sorry. Your name again is Andy. Andy. You're Raz. All right. Let's hear your story about your your deal. How you how you came about this. Well, I grew up in New York. Well, I grew up in Armani and Armani just has always been a mecca for punk music. I I just remember growing up like first thing is like I was in a I don't know, I was in elementary or junior high. And some friends are like, dude, there's a punk show like they're like, oh, it's a few houses down from my house. And I was only like eleven, ten. I remember I show up to this like backyard millions of people. And yeah, it's packed. And there's a bunch of punk kids. And it's just it was amazing. You know, it's just like blew my mind that this was out there. And coming through high school, I just like I took in as much of it as I could. And I really enjoyed everything about it. And I think it was in about two thousand and seven. I moved out to Ontario and the Inland Empire. And I stopped coming to to San Gabriel Valley that often because I just didn't have like the money or the time. And when I came back, like I just noticed that it started falling, you know, like. I like I would try to find out like, hey, man, like hit up my friends. Hey, where's the where's the backyard gig this week? And there's nothing happening this week. And it just kind of like hit me really hard. You know, I was like, that sucks. And I like being in a band myself. Like I just I just like started noticing, too, that my band like wasn't getting any shows and like everybody was just dropping music. And it just it all split apart. And I became very disillusioned with the with the with the idea that that this couldn't keep on going. So for a long time. I was just like, you know what? Like, I'm just not going to worry about it. And I'm gonna do my own thing and I'll see what comes. And I never thought I'd meet other people that, you know, would be interested in it. And I don't know. I just started I became very close off and I didn't talk to anyone for a while. And when I started talking to people again, I found out there was other people that actually wanted this as much as I did. And even though like we might not agree in all levels, you know, when it comes to music, when it comes to lifestyles and all that, the main purpose here is like to start something. Where we could all be a community again, because we feel like we lost that. So when I met these guys, I was just like, yeah, man, I'm all for it. You know, I've wanted this for as long as I could remember. And it just it was very exciting. And we're working really hard to try to make it a reality. And we're trying to get people excited about it, trying to set up as many things as we can. And we hope the best. Yeah. So how would you how would you say you're if you want to chime in and call in at 1-800-893-9562. That's 1-800-893-9562. That's 1-800-893-9562. Go ahead and chime in and talk to these boys from Bridgetown. Now, with the advent of Facebook and other social sites like MySpace and Friendster and all those other bullshit ones, is it easier now to get people together to do things or was it easier back then? Because back then, back then, this is when the internet, well, when I was growing up, back when the Internet was barely starting, it was really hard to get, you know, it was you would be able to organize by going to different shows. Like, you know, punk shows or, you know, crush shows or whatever. And getting the, you know, getting the kids, you know, riled up and wanting to like, hey, here's the next show. Go to here. Do you find it easier nowadays when you're trying to spread your message around? You know, I personally, I'll let Andy take over right now. But I personally think it's kind of like a double edged sword because you have so many people just like doing things to just try to be cool. Because it's Facebook and because you feel like all eyes are on you when you're online. You just have all these people. You just have all these people looking at you and you're just going to click a button just to look good, you know? Yeah. And it's like, I feel like the others in a way helps out because we definitely spread it out more than we would if we were just like going to college and telling our friends there. If we're going to high school and telling your friends there, if we're playing our shows and, you know, it helps out in that sense that it just like spreads the word out a lot more. But when it comes to like just people actually like caring for it, I feel like a lot of people really don't. They're like, yeah, that's a cool idea, man. But I'd rather be cool. I think I'm my friends and do my own thing. So it kind of like leaves the disconnection of, you know, because it's Facebook can basically do everything for you that you wouldn't need to like go talk to somebody or go pass out flyers or go, you know, yeah, pump somebody up. Like, how do you pump someone up on Facebook? Yeah, it's totally become this, this like, I don't know, this like secondhand thing where like everybody's just like, oh, well, if you hear from like Facebook and I just feel like it's like Facebook is pretty much about being cool. is pretty much about being cool and and and like all that stuff it's like it's it's all like about trying to get like noticed you know and and i mean it's all good to to each his own you know and like if you want to do your your thing and you want to get noticed that's cool but like i mean we have like a greater greater purpose here and like we don't think it's like to benefit just us it's like to benefit our community and to benefit our friends and to benefit everybody and that's the one thing i don't see um when when there's shows well backyard shows because backyard shows it's to me it's mainly to get the kids into something to get them to it gets them off the street number one yeah but number two it's like you said it's a double-edged sword because not only do you get the kid off the kids off the street listen to great music but it also introduces them to a whole world that they weren't expecting yeah yeah you know you get the the drugs the alcohol the violence the you know the the people you get the mixture of crowd it's so funny that when i when i when i used when i used to go to the punk yard shows you know back back in the late 80s early 90s when i was going to punk yard shows they were just punks but later on in the mid 90s uh i've noticed it was a it wasn't so much because it was all like it was everybody was into it because like i think green day had just broken through k-rock and carol because endlessly playing their shit music and um well they still are and they're getting paid very well so i guess that that's the like the whole thing like whatever is new or easy is easily accessible it kind of blows up and loses touch with the you know people with like the scene so you know there you go yeah okay as far as the whole diy concept with the causes now do you guys keep up with any type of shenanigans that go on in your local governments as far as you know city count i mean i mean to me back then i was actually attending those la puente board meetings or those stupid counties board meetings that they would have because i have a because number one i'm a voter and my vote i don't care what people say your my vote counts and it gives me a right to bitch and i try to see stuff like that and i'm like i don't care what people say i'm a voter i don't care what i started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started I see shows and a lot of people, they're doing shows. Not everyone not cares. Yeah, there's people that care. Now, reverting back to my question, do you guys keep up at all with current events within your community or just on a California national basis? This is Cameron. Specifically in our communities, I myself am from Covina. And so West Covina, La Puente, Almonte are close to me. But most of the organizing that I've done in my past, I've done a lot of organizing on the far left and doing things like that. And one of the specific situations, I mean, there's tons of different things that you can go into, but in keeping up on current events, a specific situation that I can talk about is in Pomona. They've been having these checkpoints and they're calling them, drunk driving checkpoints, essentially, intoxication checkpoints. But the community knows for a fact that they are not. They don't ever take you out of your car to breathalyze you or check if your pupils are dilated or anything like that. They simply check to see if you have your license on you. And if you don't have your license on you, then they take and impound your car. And they do it specifically in working class neighborhoods. And Pomona, as many people know, is in the Inland Empire and it's heavily populated by immigrants. Well, that's actually still part of the SGB. Anything past Claremont is San Bernardino County. That's the other P-town. There's a window and then there's the Pumona. Well, it is, but... So more relevant. There you go. It's in Pumona. Yeah, but does Pumona does have... I mean, I used to work that area when I was doing mental health. Right now I'm taking a little break. But whenever you wanted to refer somebody to actually get continuing services in their service area, Pumona, no, it was really sad. I don't know why Pumona out of all those cities, but I mean, that's good that you're involved. It's really unfortunate. And to continue what I was saying is they take you out of your car, they take your license, obviously, and they impound your car. And unlike Pumona, unlike most other states and unlike most other cities, even within California, they don't allow another family member to come and take your car and go away and drive it away. Is that legal? Actually, no. It's legal. It's not because Baldwin Park was doing the exact same thing a few months ago. And somebody actually went to the council meeting and complained about it, saying, you know, this is illegal because you're not giving me a breathalyzer. You're just checking if I have registration and insurance. If it's a sobriety checkpoint, you're not supposed to have your ID out. And it's funny because the trick of it was so you wouldn't get pulled over, you make sure you have your license and your registration ready. You usually just have to just go like that. And they'll wave you off. Exactly. But get under your point. Yeah, no. What happened was somebody complained and they sued the city over it. And the city no longer does checkpoints in Baldwin Park. Yeah. Now, if they're going to do a checkpoint, an ID checkpoint or a maintenance checkpoint or whatever, they have to tell you by law in the newspaper where it's going to be at, what section and about what time. Now, and also another thing they used to get people is if you made a U-turn or U-attachment, turn before the checkpoint, they would actually go get you and give you a citation for not going through a checkpoint. Yeah. Well, that's illegal too. Yeah. What it takes is you need to rally up these people and say, you know what? Even if they're undocumented people, you know what? They're a resident and they pay taxes. No, exactly. They have a right to go up to their accounts, but you know what? This is not right. Why am I getting my car taken away? Yeah, granted, they shouldn't be driving without a license, but you know what? If they're not drunk and they're not killing anybody, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't see a problem with it. No, and that's exactly what's been happening. To get back to the point you brought up or the question that you had was, I've been helping organize extensively with that for a long time, and there has been a huge uproar within the community, especially within the undocumented community, and there's been a lot of headway made. There are two pending lawsuits that I know of, and there's a lot going on to combat the illegal racist checkpoints, as far as I consider them, they're racist and illegal, and I don't know. Just back to your original question. Yeah, I myself, at least I know these guys do, keep up with current events within the community, and I'm myself, I'm very politically active as well as these guys as well. Okay, with that being said, now this is a tough question, because would you consider yourself, do you affiliate yourself with any certain political party, or do you talk about, are you more, do you lean towards the Democratic policies, or the Republican policies, Libertarian, Green, which, who gets your vote? Which party, or do you affiliate with a party? Do you want answers from all of us? Yeah. I can start, because I'm, I feel these guys know that I'm more inclined to answer this kind of stuff. There's a question within this. Let's get off on one for you guys. Go ahead. Yeah, well, personally, I feel that there's nothing left within mainstream politics that can, effectively change anything within our communities, and so I've identified for a long time as a Libertarian Socialist, or more commonly as an Anarchist, although I don't like to call, I don't like to say I'm an Anarchist specifically, because a lot of people don't understand. So on the South, you- That's a negative connotation. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. So you would be- A stigma. So you would be considered a commie. Essentially, yes, I'm a red- Well, that also has a bad connotation. I'm a dirty pinko commie. You're a dirty pinko commie. Okay, what about you in the red? Oh, fuck. Well, actually, the way that I've lately been seeing a lot of politics in the mainstream media is that lobbyism has kind of taken control, and corporate government is actually the norm now. So no matter what political candidate you want to choose, the issues that they're gonna take into office with them are never gonna be what the community needs, and they're never gonna be what the community wants for two reasons. One reason is because they're getting funded mostly by corporations, and the second is because they don't have any motivation to turn around from that. So for a long time, I actually claimed Democrat on the ticket, and then now I'm independent because I don't really associate myself with any party. Okay. Yeah, I guess that's it. Okay, so you're also a communist, too. Okay, go ahead, Raz. I guess I might as well just say I'm a communist. Awesome. It just goes out there. And Andy? And I'm pretty neutral. Pretty neutral? Yeah. All right. Now, I'm gonna- I figured you guys are all in your 20s now, right? Yes. All right, so you guys, did you guys vote for the last presidential election? I actually did. And who did you vote for? I voted for Obama. Okay. Now, with that being said, because I voted for Obama, too. Now, are you disappointed at the fact that he had all this big talk and that he produced nothing whatsoever? You know what? I'll be honest with you. I don't get very politically involved just because I figured that, like, I shouldn't be worrying so much about other people and I should just start doing things myself. Yeah. But I saw him and I was, you know what? Like, I'm a wishful thinker. Like, I wanna hope for the best. I wanna hope that this guy actually does something. So I went on. I went on with the hype and I voted for him. But you know what? Like, I feel like everybody uses this guy as a scapegoat. You know, like, everybody's like, oh, he's not doing shit for us. Yeah, dude. And fuck this guy because blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And you know, like, everybody's just giving him shit. But like, in reality, it's like, he has so much on his plate too, you know? Like, it's not just him. He has all these people like on his ass. And like, we don't know the story behind it. I mean, truth be told, it's like, he is the first like black president, like to, you know? Yeah, he may, you know, he may be the first black president. Now, that may be true. And I just think- I mean, like, when I'm trying to get to this, it's like this nation has been ruled by white people forever. You know, and like, we don't know, like, there's just a lot of sketch ass shit that goes on behind closed doors that we don't know about. And we don't know what deals, what anything, you know, went on. And we don't know what he has to go through. And I just feel like, like, everybody's just putting, like, taking it out on him. Like, oh, you made us believe and you made us believe. And it's like, yeah, but you know, he's a president. You can't expect much. And you know- It's funny because, you know, I keep up with all that bullshit news, the cable news, you know, MSNBC and Fox. And it's so funny because they're both bashing on Obama. And, you know, because, you know, to me, it was, it was actually Rachel Maddow who actually got me pumped up for Obama and Keith Overman. And, you know, they're like, yeah, Obama, you should be like, all right, so I voted for the guy. You know, granted, he has a lot on his plate, you're right. But still, I think to me, it's still business as usual back in, back up there. I mean, we haven't really solved anything. I mean, he doesn't take a stand. I think it's pretty sad that he doesn't take a stand on gay marriage, but yet, Cuomo and Bloomberg are the champions of gay rights in New York and they got it passed, which I think is pretty cool. Well- Well, a lot of things happen. I mean, if you, if you wait around for the government, which just brings us back to the DIY stuff, like, what's the name of that Microsoft guy? Gates. Gates. So anyways, he's like doing all this philanthropist stuff. He wants to do these vaccines for all these poor people. And it's like, I feel like, some people just have to kind of do it themselves because if you're waiting around for the government to do it, sometimes you're going to wait around a whole lifetime. So there you go. Like if, what's her name? Harriet Tubman didn't have the Underground Railroad. Is that her? Railroad. Like, are you going to really going to wait until freaking the law passes that it's illegal? Yeah. You know, so. Well, with that said, I mean, that's what I was like trying to say earlier. Like, I like, that's why I try not to get too involved in that and just actually go. And, you know, have like direct action towards like all these problems that are affecting our communities, you know, like I'm not going to be waiting for anybody in particular to like do anything. But I mean, also, like I like I have this, I have this friend who who works with this, I guess, collective, you could call it, it's called Switch. He does a lot of things like we do, too. It's a it's like music involved and he does a lot of rallies and protests and that kind of kind of stuff. And I mean, um, I just feel like like, yeah, that's all that's all fine. You're trying to get like a lot of people hyped up for it and stuff like that. But a lot of people that come out to these, it's like, you know, they I just see it and they think of it like as a as a game, you know, like like nobody takes it like really serious. And it's like I see a lot of like people who like in reality, you know, like they would they would usually stay at home and just watch TV and they're out here because they think this is interesting and stuff like that. And it's like, it's cool that you have all the support and that you have this big crowd outside, you know, and it looks like there's a lot of people supporting you. But in reality, none of these people are actually taking the time to read and act, you know, and it's like when it comes down to it, it's all on you, man. Like if you want to change something, you got to go do it, you know? Yeah, it's like that's that's what this is. That's what Bridgestone DIY is. And I feel like that's what anything that we personally involve ourselves in, it's like we try to make like we try to have like direct action towards it, you know, and it's like when it comes to all this government stuff, I mean, this is all, you know, like, yeah, it's always going to be there. You know, so. Commie. Fuck it. Hopefully, hopefully. You're just you're just you know, the four of you are just communists. I'm sorry. No. OK. You know, we're going to switch gears.

Okay, what about heroin, ecstasy? That's chill. Is that frowned upon? Like, if I show up high, will it be frowned upon, you know? You'll be banned from- As long as you're productive, man. As long as I'm productive. Yeah, man. Oh, yeah, like that one match you did. They had a skit where the president of the United States was, like, an alcoholic. And every morning he would wake up and he's all, what's happening? They're, like, oh, like, they're trying to get him drunk because he was, like, the greatest president ever. I wish alcohol was a factor in Bush. Maybe he would have been a better president if he was either coked out or been drunk. You know, he managed the Rangers and did pretty well. Yeah, he did a lot. Maybe that was the problem. He was just, like, feeding it the whole time. Now, as far as that- Are we going to talk about any of the zines? Because I brought the zines that I got that you guys were giving out for free. Yes, we were. I was, like- We were at a- She's mentioning we were at Normageddon Fest in Pomona, put together by one of our very good friends who is very heavily involved with Bridgetown, Danny. And he put together this awesome fest in Pomona. And bands like JFA played, Agent Orange played. JFA was awesome. Yeah. Yeah, I really wish I could have went to that show. I kicked myself in the ass for missing- This is, like, the fourth time I missed Agent Orange play. It was fantastic. He did a really good job of blending newer- Hardcore and older, like, skate punk and- Yeah. Resist and Exist. Yeah. Sabertooth Zombie. Yeah. Rotting Out. Great bands. Awesome. Yeah. So, we had a- He was kind enough to let us have a table there at the Glass House. And we had lots of, like, zines, informational zines. And information on Bridgetown. And so, yeah. If you want to talk about the zines, I'm more than happy to. I was kind of impressed. Like, it's, like, educational. It isn't just like, oh, these bands. And I went to this show. And this band sucks. And this band's good. It was like- Oh, we have a caller. Oh, we have a caller. Who's this? We want to see. Hello? Hello. Hi, can you guys hear me? Yes, we can. Hi, Purple Vomit. Hi. Hi, this is LaFrost and the LaFrost and Moe show. Hi, LaFrost. I'm LaFrost. Reunited. And it feels so good. Hi, guys. I was calling because I wanted to talk. I heard you guys were talking about- You know, the cops earlier and how they're kind of fucked up. And I just wanted to call to let everybody know what happened to my friend today. She's from Arizona. And so we went to Amoeba Records. And we parked at a street, like a meter parking. And she'd read the sign wrong. And it said that, you know, that- It said that we had to basically move our car by 6 o'clock. And we thought that we just didn't have to pay after 6, you know? But anyway- Okay. Okay. Anyways, we ended up rolling up at like 6 o'clock and there was a tow truck there pulling her car away. And we're like, what the fuck? Like, you know, like, I don't know. I'm just- I'm calling because I'm pissed. And I want to change these fucking rules about this bullshit that's going on. Like, now I'm just not going to want to go to Amoeba. And it has nothing to do with Amoeba, right? Because we were there shopping. And it just sucks. Like, the laws just suck. Like, my friend had to pay $230 to get her fucking car. Taking off the- Uh-oh. What happened? I think we lost her. Germs, did you censor her? The cops got her. Fuck censorship. The cops heard the conversation and freaking freaked out. LaFrost, if you hear us, run, run, run, run. We're going to have the next call from LaFrost from jail. Could somebody bail me out, please? So, back to the zines or a thing she's going to call out? Go back to the zines right now. Back to the zines. Like, feminism. It basically- It basically describes what it is. And it basically is what it is. Like, because most people think it's like a girl. Not necessarily. Well, a lot of people- Like, just simple things like that. A lot of people- Well, I mean, specifically pertaining to feminism, a lot of people don't think it's relevant anymore. And a lot of the zines in there lean more towards how I feel about politics. But I think a lot of the stuff in there is really- A lot of people don't feel like it's relevant anymore. And I feel that it is. And I think that- From the response that we've gotten, a lot of people feel that it's relevant as well. And so, I think it's always really necessary. I used to run a zine myself. I used to put together a zine that coupled, like, band interviews and current events and politics and all of that. And so, I got into doing distro at shows. I would set up a table and just hand out zines for free. And so, this is kind of a continuance of that through Bridgetown. So, yeah. Well, that's awesome. I didn't really get to read any of these. I just looked at this earlier before we went on the air. The one I actually caught my eye was this one right here. Yeah. The Eternal War on Hitler Youth. Yes. The- Elderweiss, I think. The Elderweiss Pirates. It's German. I don't know. Okay. Now, do you know anything about- Well, that zine speaks specifically about youth in Germany and Nazi Germany revolting. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. rose to power, this band of youth, like normal, functioning, logical human beings said, hey, this is kind of fucked up. Maybe we should do something about it. And so they were kids around our age. And they got together and they used sabotage and they did different things to, I don't know, slow the imperial march of the Nazi party. So I thought it was really interesting. That's one of the ones I've picked up through the zine community. Somebody gave it to me. Hitler Youth was, so Hitler Youth in this zine is talking about like a group that was against what was happening. No, no, no. The Hitler Youth was like, it can be imagined as the Boy Scouts of Nazi Germany, essentially. Yeah, because they're talking about when Pope Benedict was up for his benediction. Yes. And that he was recruited for that and was a part of that. Yeah, yeah. No, it was normal practice back then to everyone. I think it was under the age of 19, had to join the Hitler Youth. And they got together and they sang songs about the master race and a bunch of really fucked up things. And so this group of kids, the Elder Weiss Pirates, an apt name, got together and said, essentially, fuck that and took it to the next level with using direct action. We have another call. Welcome to Verbumen. What do you got to say? It's me again. I guess my phone dropped out. All right. It took me a minute to like, figure out what to do. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. You were still talking? Yeah, I was still talking for like two minutes later and I was like, hello? Hello? Yeah. Yeah, because I thought you were going to like, call back like right away and I was just like, okay, well, I guess. And then I was playing Port Jones. I thought he was censoring you. I was fighting for your rights. I always, every time I call into other shows, I always get cut off. So it's okay. I don't know. No, I'm just kidding. But yeah, I'm pretty pissed off about the whole thing and I almost got arrested and I mean, not really, but you know, it's just, You got threatened with arrest, right? Yeah. What happened? Yeah, because I had a protest. Well, they were towing her car, and it wasn't even towed, and she had to pay $230 so that the tow truck guy, she's paying tow trucking fees when we didn't even tow her fucking car. I was like, no, I'm calling the cops, and I'm sitting in the car. So I'm like, Kim, unlock the door. I'm sitting in the car. I'm going to protest, and they can't take me with the door open and just drag me off with the car. So I was just there until the cops got there. And the cops basically were like, oh, you're fucked. We can't really do anything about it. And so, you know, she had to spend every single last fucking penny that she has. I don't know how we're going to get her back home to Arizona now. But, uh, oh. Welcome to California. Oh, okay. What? I think these fine gentlemen from Bridgetown DIY may be able to help if they have the power. Really? I think we can get these boys to help these ladies. This lady out to get back to Arizona. What do you say, guys? It's a big sale. Road trip. I mean, I don't know if there's anything that they can do. But I do have to say, there's this guy that worked at Amoeba, and he was straight up like, you guys can't do that. You guys can't take the car. They're here. And it's against the law. And this tow truck guy was just like, no, we can. And, you know, too bad. And I was like, don't you feel disgusted? Aren't you? Disgusted by your job? I was just like, I didn't say that, but I wanted to. I did say that? Oh, I said that. I didn't even know what I'd say. But I'm pissed. I'm fucking pissed. Because, like I said, it's just going to make me not want to go to Amoeba now, you know? You know? We were just having a fantastic day. And they banned the Mormons, too. They banned the Mormons. This is like strike two on them. Really? They banned the Mormons in Amoeba? Oh, yeah, they did. Yeah, because, yeah. Yeah. I mean. Of them. And if they ever see them, they're to be escorted out of the store because the Mormons have a mobile unit that sometimes they tag along with the doodah parade or they'll tag along and do, you know, something. So I think they were. They did so much that they go to like a cell and play their mobile unit. And it's just kind of ironic that Amoeba would ban them because all they were doing was playing music outside of Amoeba. And they got in trouble for it. And I just don't understand that. Because I think they even have some sort of some. Like Mormons records and shit in there to buy. So it just doesn't make any sense. It's ironic. I guess they need to go through the proper channels. And I'm holding up my fingers with the quotation marks to actually to play. I think. That's a DIY right there. Yeah. Mobile unit. Exactly. They don't even need to be plugged in like they have a generator that they walk around with. How DIY is that? You know. But Amoeba is not supporting this DIY Mormons. But I do have to say. I am giving props to. Amoeba because one of the workers there came out and he was totally like on our team. He should have given you a free CD or something. That would have made up for it. He gave her an Ellie weekly. Yeah. But anyways, you guys are doing an awesome job. And get down with the get down. We will. Thank you. We're going to have you on one. We should have you on the next segment. So hurry on over here. I'd love it. So come on and join us for the next segment before we wrap it up tonight. So. So. Run over here as fast as you can. All right. All right. Bye, guys. Bye. Yeah. Tickets suck. I got a ticket for crossing the street. The light was green, but the hand was up. Oh. That's retarded. So he gave me a. Sorry for saying retarded. I saw this commercial. I always say this because I use retarded just like stupid. But there was this commercial and I. Oh, my God. Like it totally like traumatized me because there was a black person and she's all. You wouldn't call me a nigger. Would you? And I'm like, what the hell? You don't have to say it really. I was scared. Scared. So then and then the other person, the gay, another gay person is off. You wouldn't call me a faggot, would you? And I was like, oh, my God. And then they had a person went down to me and like, then why do you do it? Retarded. I'm like, oh, my God. And then that that the cheerleading captain from Glee came on. Like, oh, and then she's off. Yes, it's offensive. Like all these other words. If you don't use those, then why would you use this one? So now people still use out. And I'm just like, oh, my God. Like, I feel like God's going to come and freaking hit me with lightning or something. The girl from Glee is going to get you. Yeah. Well, that's just I don't know. It's I believe PC. Okay. You want there's politically correct word we should use. We shouldn't use the N word. But though I do use it. I mean, just like I would I wouldn't I wouldn't want to be called a spic or a wetback. Not being that I'm not Puerto Rican. Neither. I do. Beaner. I do. Don't take offense because God knows I eat my fair share of beans. They're telling the truth when they call me a beaner. Why don't I? Why don't Mexicans have barbecues? I don't know. I'm a Mexican. Listeners. Why? I can tell this joke because the beans will fall through the grill. Okay. Now you're okay. Getting back to you where you're talking about the Hitler Youth. Now, I didn't know about I didn't know about this until just recently. I said a few years ago. I didn't because, you know, American history doesn't really even when they talk about World War Two, they just talk about how we went in. And Reagan Youth was named partly because of Hitler Youth. Yeah. You know, we went to Europe and we freed the Europeans from that horrible oppressive regime. Well, we didn't know at first. What I didn't know was there was actually the rebellions going on, you know, back then, you know, because they weren't always they weren't just against the Jews. They were against, you know, homosexuals, Catholics. I'm a Catholic. Really? Catholics. The people who get away with the most. Catholics. You know, they're being persecuted. Why can't we prosecute them? I don't know. Why? You know, they were just going after anybody who wasn't, you know, of who wasn't Christian or who wasn't. They had a special patch. Actually, that's why there's the pink triangle, because that was the purple, the symbol that they had back in the day for the Hitler, the Nazi to identify them. OK. I started to realize that. And it was it was through television. Which, unfortunately, is bad for me. But it's, you know, I still watch it. The boob tube? The boob tube. You know, you don't get boobs without watching the boob tube. No! And he's flopping his boobs. You know. His moves. These guys are totally turned on. They're totally turned on. They're just celebrating right now. Why do you think they're facing you? Well, I didn't know, you know, the whole thing that they had, the whole background with, you know, Valkyrie and stuff like that. Yeah. You know, and it's stuff like that that causes rebellions, you know. And I think that's what I'm trying to do. I think that's what I'm trying to do. I started to realize that started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started started rights. You know, just like the robots of strike here in California with the supermarkets. And it's not because of anything major. It's because they're paying too much as it is. I mean, when you divide up the wage a worker gets, 75% of that is already gone. It's gone. It's like, that's taxes. Medical, if you get medical, if you get dental, and if you get vision, they take a big chunk out of that. You know, where I used to, I used to have a job, half my check would be gone from deductions. You know, and I thought, when's my time to shine? When do I, you know, when do I get this shit back? Realize, you know what? I'm getting poor, but my owner, the owner of the company is getting rich because here's his ass and his ex-wife coming up in brand new Porsches. But when I asked for a raise, oh, we don't have the money for a raise. It's because businesses get these tax incentives. Yeah. To stay in California and they can just lower their tax rate. I mean, it's funny. If you look at most companies, especially credit card companies, did you know they're based out of Delaware? Really? Why? Because the majority, it's the lower tax bracket there. They don't pay shit in taxes. I mean, for Delaware being a small state, they have the most per capita in the United States of corporations headquartered there. And why? It's because of lower taxes. That's like, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't really see when you have people, you know, building up a business, they get taxed the hell out of it. And there's nothing wrong with it. Let's start taxing the right people. And let's not, and let's stop taxing the middle class because sooner or later, there's not going to be the middle class. It's going to be poor and rich. And that's it. I mean, yeah. Oh, go on. Oh, I was just going to ask, does anyone, any, any, anybody know anything about the Vernon jobs being shipped to Texas? No. I saw a billboard and it had, um, it was kind of cute. Yeah. California. And he's kind of cute, California. And he's like being, being roped in by Texas and the Texas. Yeah. I've seen that. Yeah. Yeah. So I guess they're taking. What they want to do to Vernon. Outsourcing. And what Vernon wants to do is, um, Vernon is a, is not a city in Los Angeles. It's its own city with the fewest amount of residents, but yet you pay the lowest taxes in Vernon. That's why you have the former John plant there, seven ups there. So it's mostly companies. It's mostly. It's kind of like Santa Fe Springs. Yeah. It's an industrial. It's an industrial city with maybe 35 houses. And out of those 35 houses, 20 of those are owned by the city council and their family, family members who live there. So they pay nothing in taxes and they want to keep it that way. But LA caught on to the say, well, we're losing out revenue on these guys. So let's suck them back into LA. And guess what? We'll have the money. We'll have the revenue to pay off LA's debt. Cause LA has a huge debt. Yeah. Antonio Villaraigosa sleep at the wheel. I don't know what the hell he was doing, but he's not. He's, I hate to say it, but when you, other than him, what's his name? Uh, right. Uh, Reardon was a better mayor than Villaraigosa, you know, and that's saying a lot. Cause Reardon sucked. Yeah. Big time. I think, I think everything that you guys are talking about just speaks to the fact. And, uh, this is myself talking. This doesn't necessarily reflect the views of everybody that's with me here. But I think that what we're talking about speaks directly to the fact that those in power, never do anything for like in the interest of those who are, uh, below them. Um, and I mean, those are lots of different examples. The, the, the voter and the politician, the capitalist and the worker. Um, I think that those who own, uh, the means to produce what have you, um, are always going to do whatever is in their interest rather than the interest of those, uh, who actually do the work and produce the things that are necessary to keep society functioning. Um, and I think that's, I think that's, I think that's, I think that's, I think that's a really important thing. Um, and as far as like outsourcing and things goes, uh, I mean, we, I, how old was I? It happened in 1992. So I was still in my mother's womb, but NAFTA, when NAFTA passed and they, they allowed for, uh, NAFTA being the, uh, North American free trade agreement, allowing for major corporations to cross borders, um, without restriction and conduct business and ship, ship jobs overseas, which is, we're kind of getting far away from stuff about Bridgetown, but like, I, I think that's, I think that's, I think that's, I think that's, I think that's, I think that, uh, uh, it's, it's, but it's relevant towards Bridgetown because you think about it, Bridgetown, well, you know, La Puente, it's right next to it. It's city of industry. Yes. At one time, you, you know, this, there was a lot of business in the city of industry. Warehouses were open, stuff was there. As soon as NAFTA started in 92, cause I was 18, Jesus Christ, you make me feel so old. Um, that's when, that's when businesses started closing. You had all these owners moving their country. You're moving anywhere. And then it started something else, which was more highway deaths because Mexico doesn't have the same regulations as the U S does. And neither does Canada. As a matter of fact, U S has the most strictest regulations for truck drivers, but not that they enforce it, mind you, but they do have the strongest, you know, uh, strictest restrictions. Um, who went after did pass it. It was a fiasco. And you know, that's part of Bill Clinton's legacy. And unfortunately it's not a, it's not one of the brightest spots because, um, it's not they overturned NAFTA. No, they actually did stop NAFTA, you know? And, and they renamed it something else. Yeah. It's essentially the same thing. It's essentially the same thing where jobs it's, it's funny cause you know, jobs were going overseas. I mean, but they're not staying here where they should be. Yeah. And I think it affects, it affects the communities because people are, I mean, I was at a point where my dad lost his job, was laid off for years and he had to go back and forth and go back and start from square one. Seeing my dad do that made me realize, like, fuck, you know, at any time, you know, this may be the land of prosperity, but essentially, you're fucked no matter what. You can be fucked at any time. If you're not well with your money, and if you're just, you know, and you're just spending it on dumb shit, you're going to be fucked. But if you're somewhat smart with it, and you know somebody, hey, insider trading, hey, you get 60 months. But that's kind of sad that you have to, well, yeah, you have to be, you have to watch out for your own back because the government's not going to help you. Well, I think, exactly. I mean, you're, it's not even necessarily about being safe with your money. It sounds like your dad didn't necessarily lose his job because of the way he was acting with his money. It was because of policies that were in place. And so, again, going back to the fact that it's not always, people like to place the blame on those who are the victims themselves. They like to blame the victim. And so, I think, again, another example, bringing it back to NAFTA, I think that it's fucking insane that we're, that people are actually blaming immigrants for the loss of jobs when, in fact, it's major corporations who are shipping the jobs overseas and reducing the wages. Down in Mexico, they're reducing the wages because there's not as strict a labor laws down there. And so, what do you do? Oh, there's another job up in the United States where I can get paid. It's from over as much as you want. Yeah, I can get paid a bit more. So, why the fuck am I going to be here in a, like, working for Coca-Cola where I'm not allowed to have a union? And why the fuck would I stay here when I can go up and, I mean, risk my life? But that just pays heed to the fact that these people are risking their lives to better themselves and better their lives. And plus, they do the jobs that we won't do. Yeah, yeah. I mean, honestly, I'm not going to go and let us in a few hours. I'm just being straight out with it. I'm too lazy. I've been, I've been, I've been lazified by America. You know, that's one thing about America. We're turning to the Roman Empire. Yeah. We're at the crossroads where we can change and maybe succeed, but I don't think it's going to happen. I think we're just going to go down that road and just ease on down until we're into bankruptcy. Yeah. So, just bringing it back, I think that all these points that we've made, it's relevant to us. Bridgetown is relevant because we want to put the power back into the hands of those, who actually exist within the community, not bureaucrats or capitalists or those who are higher up than us because we know we have the power. We need to get rid of career politicians. Yeah. That's one thing too, you know. Career politicians, they are fucking us up big time. And with that, do you want to go into another break? You think we should? Sure. Sure. All right. We're going to go to another break. You guys want to stay for the last segment? Yeah. We'll give out a little bit more information. The goals and stuff. Actually, the next, the next segment, it's a little bit different, but we want to thank Bridgetown DIY for coming in. Thank you guys.

don't is that from King of the Hill yeah I didn't see that one I'm not too too up to date with it he was a hired killer and he had the ad for like years and so finally Bill felt bad for him and like

so not listening a lot right there well so you have you have another little tidbit of information to dwell on us Portland Oregon's having their naked bike ride I love naked bike rides they have it every year and actually Bridgetown DIY guys do you know why they have it no why is that to raise awareness to go green because they're on their bikes and not on their yeah that's awesome yes so every year going on right now I think it might have been today I'm not sure oh man I love Portland there used to be naked bike rides actually it was on the 20th I think out in Claremont out where near where we're from naked naked bike rides yeah no way at the Claremont colleges there were a few and I know at one point one of my friends actually got tackled off his bike by a security guard because they didn't want them riding their bicycles naked through the colleges but they continued nonetheless is it accepted now for the most part I mean it is college you should be able it's like an annual thing or something they they used to do it on a weekly basis actually weekly I thought Claremont was kind of conservative oh no no way no no it's pretty to the left yeah oh really I when I go to Claremont it feels like Berkeley that could never be because there's so many there's the sister colleges that are there and it kind of reminds it has that Berkeley feel but not but it's still too hoity toity because Berkeley looks like shit maybe that's why because it's hoity toity I thought it was conservative yeah I mean I think if you actually like take a step into the campus you'll see all the beer pong tables and what not is it diverse is it culturally diverse it just smells like weed there too they try to put it off that way I mean they're private colleges and it's I don't know Claremont the city itself is made mostly made up mostly of like upper middle class yeah Caucasian people yeah we went out dumpster diving in the colleges the other day and we found a lot of cool stuff oh yeah if anybody if anybody needs anything like like miniature refrigerators wait till the end of the semester and go really cause they just they throw out like the stuff they just have money like that they can clothes yeah cause they're all they're all rich college fucks and so they just throw their stuff into dumpsters we found whole printers that work and no way computers refrigerators wow I should just that's a good tip thanks I think we're gonna have to do that when the semester ends we're gonna dress up like college kids and just go dumpster diving yeah we're really gonna blend in Mexican you don't even have to yeah you don't have to yeah we have everyone's out there like oh really yeah I mean everyone knows that you're gonna dig through their trash alright do you guys like all the dorm huh dorm dumpsters yeah awesome dorm dumpster driving diving that's like a tongue twister dorm dumpster driving dorm dumpster diving I couldn't say that five times please I cannot say that five times dorm dumpster driving well interesting dorm dumpster driving and collective products that that that! oh saved by the ring phone your own verbal vomit how can we help you how can I help you I'm sorry

y'all have a y'all have a half the fourth of July yeah you too you too Tracy thanks for calling back alright yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah alright dang right right down to the partying he's ready to party and bring everyone else along right no shit now you guys who has here who has anybody use iPhones or iPads iPods I don't my step mom has an iPad okay yeah well apparently you know there's apps there's apps for everything and apparently there's this app called a it's called it's called picture effect magic where you can just take a photo what you want you know you can mess with the face and the colors and stuff like that well on a list of possible colors there's this one called 54N or brown you know there's a color called nigger brown nigger brown it's straight up straight up and it wouldn't it wouldn't have been a big deal oh really yeah who cares yeah who cares yeah it's like it's like you know no it's cause there was already like maybe at least how long was it going on it was it was a hundred thousand downloads so it was it's been out for a while and it was a 13 year old who found nigger brown that's right and complained about it the youth is the leaders of tomorrow and complained about it it was like you know how dare you use this you know derogatory slur awesome and I was reading the reviews and you just get nigger it's like it's not a derogatory term it's a color they're using it as a color effect for brown it's like okay yeah how many no when you when you're using that word you're not using it okay even beaner brown is at least starts with the same letter beaner brown okay or maybe that is another one some other kid hasn't noticed it yet that's not the same type of brown not the same type of brown Caucasian white oh my god Asian yellow that thing is wrong here's what one of the reviewers wrote here I use this app all the time before the update now there's an effect called nigger brown that is disgusting that is unacceptable and the creator should be ashamed the creators you know what they wrote we're really sorry we're in the works of taking nigger brown off right now they still said it again yeah because they knew it would be publicized probably and if you still download the app apparently nigger brown is still on there yeah because they're still working on it isn't that like a hate crime or something it's not a hate crime per se because they're using it to describe a color no but that's illegal you can't you can't use a derogatory term against this particular group well they're not they're not using it the loophole with that is they're not using it as a derogatory term towards a group even though it is is there another definition of that word besides they can call it you know they can call it cafe brown no no no I'm saying is there another definition for the word nigger besides a black person that they could be like well I meant for it to be this not the person I don't think so no I mean you're so there you go there should be something you're not gonna use hate crime you're not gonna use mullion brown or porch monkey brown you know you're not gonna use none of those they could have said negro they could have said negro or but that's black yeah but that's just black it's like the color black yeah negro you know I could have used better a better term for that one time I was freaking out because I went to this back when I used to teach a teaching conference and they used to have like what do you call it like continental breakfast or something right and every day they have a theme like one day it would be like Mexican they have little sombreros and sarapis or whatever and then one day it was like movie so they had like movie reels and stuff like that and I saw negro like on one of the tins or whatever and I was just like oh my god and I like wasn't comfortable I couldn't concentrate I was just like dude why does it say freaking negro on that freaking thing I lifted up the thing it said blanco y negro I was like oh black and white yeah so anyways did you know Al Capone's Machinga went on auction and sold for guess how much one million dollars no guys more ten million no less less 300,000 less what 10,000 10,000 what 10,000 what 10,000 what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what I mean, he was fucking broad. It runs rampant. You know? But it runs rampant in the prison system, though, like the STDs and stuff, because they aren't giving any protection. And, you know, it's just a common fact that, you know. I don't think you're going to tell the guard, hey, guard, can you give me a condom? Wow, I'm going to ask you. But there's a problem with that. But there's a problem with that. Do you think they should give out condoms? Yes, I do. You think it would alleviate the STD problem? What the? The European condoms or regular ones? For reals, man. No, because they're in prison. No, they get the regular. They get the regular old, no feeling, no lube on it. No condoms. At least some lube, man. I have a question. I don't know if it's, do they still make lambskin? Yeah, they still make lambskin. How is that illegal? How is that even legal? Well, it's legal still because even though it's still porous, there's not that much sperm that actually gets through, you know. I mean, it's easy. It's easy to tear though because it is skin. I mean, just like you wouldn't use pig bladder as a condom because, you know. Well, people use freaking lambskin. We use lambskin. We use intestines for, well, they used to use intestines as a condom before. No way. Well, I guess it kind of looks like a. Well, because you dry out the skin because you dry it out and you would be able. That's all. Well, my question was answered. Okay, that's fine. All right. Okay, that just. What did I ask for? What did I ask for? What did I ask for? What did I ask for? All right. How many of you guys are atheists? Is that a trick question? No, it's not a trick question. Just, you know, you guys. Okay, do you guys believe in organized religion? No. No. All right. I think I'm agnostic. Agnostic? Yeah, agnostic. Yeah, I would be an agnostic. All right. I have nothing against atheists or agnostic people. I do have a problem against organized religion though. Yeah. Now, I think atheists have the right as any Americans, as anybody in the world to post up billboards. Oh, yeah. You can post it. You know, anybody. Anybody can post a billboard. You know, you got billboards that are saying to atheists to come out of the closet. Basically, you know, come out for the whole thing. Or my favorite one is this one. There's a nice family that says, atheists by default. You know. I don't get it. I think it's great. There's actually, there's advertisements in the UK on buses that are sponsored by atheists that say, organized religion flies you into buildings. Science flies you to the moon. Oh, shnam. I believe in science. And it's funny because this goes out to my daughter Ivy who's finding religion right now. And she's asking me all these questions and it's kind of hard because she's like, are you an atheist, dad? I'm like, no, I'm not an atheist, but I'm an agnostic. What is that? Well, I believe in God. I believe there's a higher power. I just don't believe that we should all have to go to one place and worship and give our money for that. And it's funny because atheists, they stick to their guns. You know, they're suing places. They're suing places, you know, for a God-free lifestyle, which is fine. Are they going to sue the money? No, they're suing, you know, like people who don't want to put their ads up. I mean, it's freedom of speech, you know. I mean, they're getting shit in Little Rock, you know, when atheists want to put up a... But if it's still in the freaking Pledge of Allegiance and if it's still on the money... Which they should take out because that Pledge of Allegiance under God wasn't added until 1954. Well, that guy from San Francisco won it. But then there was an uprising and maybe lasted a week. When was this? Maybe like five years ago. Anybody remember? Well, I... Hold on, hold on, hold on. I remember there was a big deal about it. I didn't hear about it actually passing through or anything. It passed for a short, brief period of time. Then it got overturned because people were like... Yeah, no. They're claiming that it was tradition, blah, blah, blah, blah. That's their big, you know... I've gone to private conservative Protestant schools my entire life, save for high school. I went to an all-boys Catholic school, but I remember... Oh, my God. I was totally opposite. Public, public, Catholic high school. Yep. So it was a different experience. So like... It is. The Catholics aren't as bad about it. My family was... I'm an agnostic, but I was raised as a Catholic. And so going to an all-boys Catholic school wasn't that bad. But before that, when we went to the private Protestant schools, there was some creepy cultish stuff going on. And I remember when that went down, they were talking about... About wanting to remove the Pledge of Allegiance... Or remove Under God from the Pledge of Allegiance. And how it was like such a travesty that... Why would they do this? They're trying to turn our country into like... Communists. Yeah, yeah. So it was a little ridiculous. But I didn't hear about it going through. It's anarchy. Yeah. Oh, my God. Yeah, totally. They were totally painting like the worst pictures. Just like, okay, separation of church and state. If you look back historically, why did we even freaking come to the United States? Hello? So freaking isn't that part of like just... You know, don't ask... Don't ask, don't tell. You do what you want. I'll do what I want. You leave me alone. I'll leave you alone. Live and let live. But even though that's the whole history of it, we're still having trouble with that so much. And it's funny because you never hear atheists try to push... Well, because they don't believe in shit. You never hear them try to push their agenda on you. You know, you... I admit atheists... They just want things neutral. Yeah. That's how I see it. They just want a life... They want to go somewhere where... They're not going to be, you know, bombarded by under God or by God or by Christians or by... And it's funny because like, I don't really have a problem with any religion except for those fundamentalists who think that their interpretation of the Bible is, you know, is the way it should be. And it's usually wrong. And it's usually the wrong. It's funny because one of my friends had posted, you know, the Bible teaches, you know, hope and love. But how these people do it is they're teaching hate. It's like, how are you going to change a book from hope and love to hate? You know, like, all right, come on. You're obviously retarded, first of all. And number two, you know, you... Oh, you said the R word. I don't care. It's 1-800-893-9562 to talk about my retarded comment. 1-800-893-9562. Yeah, not only that, but like I come from the Inland Empire where there's tons and tons of churches everywhere. Big, huge compounds sort of reminiscent of... All those mega churches? Yeah, like kind of like a Jim Jones type of thing going on. And it's funny because as like Prop 8 gets introduced into this whole like scheme of things, they actually take a... These churches actually take a stand and they actually encourage in their sermons for you to go, you know, against gay marriage. And they give you stickers and banners and tons of stuff at the church. Well, that was a whole Mormon thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're right, yeah. Funded by, yeah, the Mormon. But in Christian churches, they're giving this stuff away and telling people like, you know, this is the right way. This is what God wants. But it's an agenda. Now, if they're going to do shit like that, they need to start paying taxes. Yeah, exactly. If churches, you know, if churches actually are going to tell people how to vote, that should not be... I mean, your religion should not be associated at all with your political stance. You shouldn't be voting by faith. You should be voting by what's there, the issues. Yeah. And that's the one thing they tend to forget. You know, it's like how people say, oh, I wouldn't want, you know, a Muslim working next to me. How would you even know he's Muslim? Yeah. You know? Or how would you know if he's Jewish or this? You know, the first question that comes out of my mouth when I meet somebody is like, isn't, hey, so what's your religious background? Do you believe in Jesus? Do you believe in God? I don't really give a shit. But if the whole religion and politics, that's what we like. Yeah, not only that, but I mean, even if you do know what it is, it shouldn't matter because it's, you're all, we're all playing for the same team. We're all humans here. I don't understand why organized religion doesn't teach tolerance. Like, it's like the key to peacekeeping amongst each other, and, you know, within nations and stuff like that, but it's not being taught in religion. And that's basically supposed to teach you how to get along with people, right? Yeah. And it's funny. They don't teach tolerance within that church. They won't teach tolerance. They won't say like, hey, help your fellow brother out. Yeah. I mean, and it's funny because there are stories coming out from, I guess Iran, from, not Iran, it's Iran, from Iran, where Muslims and Jews were helping each other out, or even in Palestine. I heard about that. You know? And it's, you know, and it's, when it, it was at 9-11, when I was watching a documentary, when one of the, when one of the guys was running from the towers, he tripped and fell. He was picked up by just a guy. He said he didn't know who he was, just picked him up. And he said, you know what? You know, he realized once he thanked him who he was, he was, he realized he was Muslim, he was Jewish. Yeah. And earlier that day, he was talking shit about Muslims. It's like, and there's a Muslim helping him out. That just goes to show that religion like that should just be left out. We should deal with human politics first. Let's talk about us being human and how we can make ourselves better and make the world better because it just... That's like the whole Beatles thing, you know, trying to teach each other how to, you know, how to get along and not focus so much on the religious aspects of things, but, you know... We haven't... I just think like... ...regressed Muslims. I just think like when it comes to like all, just like acceptance of like religion or sexual preference or what have you not, like it's just better for somebody at the top like to keep us busy with each other, you know? Like I just feel like, like the way they see it, it's like, yeah, you know, we're not going to like stick our hands in there. If anything, we'll stir the pot a little more so that we can keep on, you know, like doing our thing and nobody like... There's no problems for me. Yeah. Nobody takes a little bit of our time. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Look over here. And here we are, you know, like judging each other and fighting each other about like the church. That's what they want us to do. And they're probably the ones that are like putting the money down for these things, you know? Like, hey, yeah, we want to make some flyers that talk this about like gay people. Oh, yeah, yeah. We'll give you the funding for it. Go for it. You know, just that kind of deal. And yeah, I don't know. I feel like none of us are like that. I mean, like... No, man. ...especially like our group of friends. The gays and atheists are undermining the traditional... It's that people... It's that pinko communism right there that's going to get you guys in trouble. Yeah. I'm serious, you know? I'm just hoping we'd have a mob outside waiting when we... Yeah, it'll probably be a mob of happiness. Like, yay, you know? Someone finally said the truth. Yeah, and it's true, you know? And this is what I really hope for the younger generation. You know, unfortunately, you guys are coming into a world that is fucked. You're, you know, when you guys... Like that White Lion song? You know, when... Little child. As you get older, you're going to realize that your Social Security is not there. That things that... How things were back in the 80s aren't going to be the way it is now. But it's... But I see what you guys are doing. You guys are doing something positive, and you guys are doing something to... You guys are saying, you know what? I'm done talking. I'm going to do something about it. And I wish your guys' generation was more like that. You know, instead of talking the talk, you know, because you know what, you guys? You know, you guys can get the troops rallied up for moveon.org and all these other things. But really, you guys need... You guys are doing the smart thing about, you know, first you guys are exposing the kids to music, and then to the art, and then to the literature. You know, and that's the key right there. You start shaping the minds now, so that later on, when they're corporate jerks, they won't be that big of an asshole. Well, it's kind of to counterbalance whatever's already, you know, said, and taught to us within the public school system or the private institutions or even worse. So it's kind of like just to add the balance of the other side of things, like, because we already get fed all these things. Like I said, I used to teach before, and we have to sign a contract that we won't talk about anything that isn't democratic. So we can't talk about socialism. We can't talk about communism. Even as a teaching point, we can't even touch it. I'm sorry to let you guys... Did you teach creationism? What? Creationism? Where... No, I know, but what? Did they allow you to teach creationism? They didn't have a problem with the creationism? You know, no commie stuff and no, you know, any of that left-wing banter that, you know, that you signed your contract with creationism part of that? It just has to do with that, the socialists. Socialists? They just don't want to step on anybody's toes, man. So leave out communism. Don't talk about... Yeah, I mean, I think that's the thing. I think that's the thing. I think that's the thing. I think that's the thing. Everything's fine. Everything's in the center. Nobody gets upset. Nobody gets upset when you have money. Yeah. Well, until you lose your money, then everybody gets upset, you know? When I go through my $100 for heroin, you know, then I get upset. Because what am I going to do? I'm going to have to start sucking dick for that. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Exactly. One more lighthearted story before we... Actually, it's kind of reminding me of LaFrost because this lady got... Oh, hey, LaFrost is here. Why don't you come on? Join us. Join us on the mic really quick. Oh, don't be... Now you're being shy. Look at her. She's being shy. If I go over there, I'm going to take over. And you can kick out one of these guys. I'm just kidding. No, I can kick out Dave. No. Anyways, so I guess there was like a domestic dispute in Delaware, and they had the lady inside the police car and she refused to get out when they were trying to get her out. So you know what she did? What? No? No. Anyone take a guess? She shit herself? She got naked? She squirted breast milk at the cops. That's my kind of girl. That's my kind of girl. I heard about this too. Oh, yeah? Yeah. I dug this, actually. Yeah, I was just like, what? F you. You're not taking me alive. You're not taking me alive. So with that, was there something that is coming up? No. You have a last show for Nation Sleeps, which is a band that you. Yeah. Yeah. I did the vocals for that band. We're called the Nation Sleeps. We have a Reverb Nation and Bandcamp Facebook. Check us out. We're actually having our last show. It's going to be this Saturday at Cameron's residence in Covina. And all the money goes to Bridgetown. Yeah, all of the money will be donated to Bridgetown. We've been throwing shows like this. Yeah. No, you don't have to bring it. We're actually going to cook, too, and sell food. Yeah, we're going to sell food there. Is it going to be vegan, vegetarian? It's all vegan. It's all vegan. I'm there. Yeah. Yeah, it's all vegan. Well, I would go, but now there's no meat. So there's no point. I'm sorry, but you don't put in the French with salad. You can bring your meat and put it in there. Yeah. Can I put my meat on somebody else's grill? Disclaimer, bring your meat. But yeah, anyway. So yeah, we've been having benefit shows for a few months now to raise funds so that we can rent out a place, get a lease going, and this is going to be a show that we'd like to greatly help that. So there's going to be La Bella's going to play, A Nation Sleeps. Do you want to go ahead and? Yeah, yeah. It's going to be. This is going to be at my house in my garage. Inside the garage. Inside the garage. So people are used to playing backyard shows, but we like to have things inside. It'll be fun. If you're interested in coming, you can check the Tumblr or the Facebook or email us for details. It's at my house in Covina. And the bands that are playing are La Bella, A Nation Sleeps, Their Last Show, Calculator, who just got back from tour with a band called The Status Landscape, and Burn Idols. So it'll be fun. It'll be a fun show. Four or five bands. It'll be nice. So hopefully if you can come out, I'm sure we're still deciding on the price, but it's going to be between like two or three bucks. It's not going to be anything more than that. That's a good price for a show. And if you don't even have money. Discount. Discounts coming. Yeah, yeah. Nobody can get turned away if you're not having money. Fuck that. Just bring your meat on the grill. Yeah, please. Please bring your meat to put on our grill. Just bring some honeys, man. Bring some honeys. If you bring a keg of root beer, you get in free. Oh, yeah. Keg of root beer. There you go. There you go. Kinger. Wait, I think we also have a PayPal, right? Where people can just. Yeah. How? Okay. If I wanted to like donate money to you guys or, you know, because like, it's hard for me to go to a meeting, but I want to donate to you guys' cause. How do I go about doing that? You guys have a PayPal account set up? Currently we have our PayPal is linked to that same email address, bridgetowndiy at gmail.com. If you'd like to donate, obviously it's very much encouraged, but for those of you that are interested in maybe receiving something back for donating, we're looking to get a Kickstarter started. If you're unaware of what a Kickstarter is, essentially the idea behind it is you set a goal of the amount of money that you want to raise, and then based on how much you donate, you get something in return. The things that we're looking to give as incentives for you to donate are patches, screen printed posters, things like that. If you're interested in donating, keep on the lookout. Check our Tumblr frequently. That will be up, I'm sure, probably by the end of the week. We're going to be talking about it at this next meeting. Either that, you can look at the Kickstarter, or if you want to directly just donate to us, and I'm sure we can, if you want to do it before the Kickstarter is up, I'm sure we can send you something your way. Email us, BridgetownDIY at gmail.com. I noticed you guys brought these lovely patches. Which is pretty cool. I like it because you guys did them yourselves just earlier. Do you guys have buttons with you? We don't have buttons as of yet. We have stickers, but I think we might have run out. It's possible. We'll get more made. The patches are always going to be in supply. Because we can... Other than the patches, you guys mentioned you did it yourselves. The pens and the stickers done by yourselves, you guys do it somewhere else. The stickers are done by somewhere else. Yeah, the stickers are done somewhere else. Technically. We do all the designing for the stickers and things like that. Everything that's within our means to everything that's possible for us to create. Screen printing. Oh, there's one right there. Everything that's possible for us to do within our means, like doing screen printing ourselves, to learning how to do that. So we did that. Buttons are well within our means, so hopefully we'll get around to making those soon. And at some point, if we can make stickers, if we have the means to make those, I'm sure we will. So we're just trying to keep the DIY ethic as long as possible. If you want, I can give you some information off the air over how to get buttons. I have a friend named Sean Luke who lives in San Francisco. He did my friend Alice's buttons for her magazine called Shut Up Slut. And they came out really nice. Cool. I'll give you the info for that. Awesome. Thank you very much. Well, actually, I'll have to Facebook it to you because I have it with me. Facebook. That's social network, you know. There you go. But yeah, if you guys also want to find out more and you guys can't find the Bridgetown, you could look for any of our bands. Oh, yeah. Any of our affiliated bands. Plug our bands. Yeah, because we're all... We're all in shows or something. We're all always there. There's La Bella and A Nation's Leaves, Burn Idols. What else is in there? Rapture. Rapture's Concussion. Just any of those bands, if you know any of them, hit them up and they all know about this. And a lot of the LA hardcore punk bands know about this. And if there's any events going on that have anything to do with hardcore punk or even we're going to try to expand and include other scenes and genres. But I mean, we just, like I said, we tabled at Narraganfest. This past weekend, we tabled at the LA Anarchist Book Fair, which was a huge success. It was really cool. And a lot of people came up and took our information. I missed that. It was great. And I'm not going to lie, but I got really drunk. I went to Tiki Tea and I just had way too many cocktails. Hey, man. Whatever happens, happens. To each his own. But so if there's anything like that, keep a lookout for us. I'm sure we'll be there. We'll be around. We'll have a table. Yeah, just we'll hopefully get the word out as much as possible. Awesome. Well, you know what? Once again, thank you guys for joining us. Thank you. Thank you for getting the word out about your DIY project. I think it's really good. I think it's noble of you guys to actually want to do something in your communities to expand minds and to get kids motivated. Because it seems to be, you know, kids are lazy. I'm not going to lie. They're freaking lazy and they need some type of motivation. This will inspire. You guys don't know it, but you guys are going to inspire the next generation of DIY artists who want to do their own thing.
