Back byto the back of the air force one and spoke ten minutes off the record. This is as try as true as giving them more free food. The only thing that the press likes more is juicy information is information so juicy they cant tell anyone about it. Where do they go from here . No one knows, but i have a feelingfeeling this golf excursion is not the last time the president flips the press the birdie. Im done talking now. Michael thanks brett. Someone is always in our war room. Check us out online at current. Com the war room and check out our exclusive web extras. Have a great night and well see you back here tomorrow night. Cenk welcome back to the young turks. All of a sudden in washington, d. C. , we got a new sheriff in town, Elizabeth Warren. The question i really want to ask is about how tough you are. My question is when did you bring him to trial . The question im really asking is can you identify when you last took the wall street banks to trial . Cenk awesome and boy, do we need her because ive got other stories about how the banks are trying to rob us blind and the regulators are actually helping them. Its about time she held them accountable. Weve got an amazing movie coming out about whistle blowers and how the Obama Administration is cracking down on them. Would you call it torture . Waterboarding is something we shouldnt be in the business of doing. I was the first to confirm the water board torture on prisoners. I was about an hour into the interview i realized wait a minute, theyre investigating me. Cenk amazing story. Speaking of amazing the Koch Brothers, do you know they have been planning the tea party since 2002 that grassroots uprising . Weve got the evidence, later in the show. Well end on a fun note. Are l. A. Women unbearable . Hows that for fun . Go time. Theme cenk did you hear what i said earlier . We got a new sheriff in town senator Elizabeth Warren, from the great state of massachusetts. They got the Bank Regulators in thursday. Everybody was expecting softballs, as usual. Rock again bob. Sheriff warrens in town. Now i know there have been some landmark settlements, but we face special issues with Financial Institutions. If they can break the law and drag in billions in profits and then turn around and settle, paying out of those profits. They dont have enough incentive to follow the law. Cenk thats 100 right so these regulators havent had they are feet held to the fire in a long time and didnt know how to rating to it. Here was my favorite question. So, the question i really want to ask is about how tough you are about how much leverage you really have in these settlements and what id like to know is tell me a little bit about the last few times youve taken the biggest Financial Institutions on wall street all the way to a trial. [ applause ] anybody . Cenk anybody . Shes still wait forego an answer. The real answer, none of them can name the last time they took any of the bankers to trial. None of them thats amazing now remember, as junior senator liz belt warren according to conventional wisdom is just spes to be quiet. When they told her that, she said thats a negative ghost writer. Thats not how shes playing it and as my mom would say thank god. David as seroda, joins us from colorado. Hes the author of back to our future. First, lets talk about Elizabeth Warren. I want to play one more clip. We showed the audience how she was tough on the regulators, but they always say we couldnt go to trial, it would be so hard, so here was her response to that and then well come back and talk about it. I just want to note on this, there are district attorneys and u. S. Attorneys who are out there every day squeezing ordinary citizens on sometimes very thin grounds, and taking them to trial in order to make an example, as they put it. Im really concerned that too big to fail has become too big for trial. That just seems wrong to me. Cenk so david look, if we said this in washington d. C. , that power establishment doesnt hold itself accountable under any circumstances but will crush the average guy, youd get laughed out of the room, saying oh oh, come on, thats so conspirator yell, youre case dawg. Is Elizabeth Warren right theres two standards depending whether youre rich and powerful. Shes exactly right. We can see that on the hsby bank in which the u. S. Government let off this huge bank doing business with criminals, drug cartels and terrorists, and the Justice Department, the Obama Justice department essentially let that bank off the hook without a single prosecution of an executive, without prosecuting the company as a whole settling with that company at the same time our government said its tough on individual criminals. I think its really obvious that there is a different standard. Heres the thing. Pbs front line explained why there is that difference. The u. S. Government is becoming more open about that, it says that the top prosecutor at the Justice Department said we have to be concerned with the Economic Impact of prosecuting big financial ins fashions. Tostags institutions. Prosecutors should be in the business of enforcing the law not in the way saying if youre a big dog, were not going to go after you because were worried about the prosecutors. Cenk the New York Times said the prosecutors might dip their toe in the water in the subsidiary, but not the parent company, because god forbid, if you do something to the parent company, that might endanger in the economy. Theyre saying you get a get out of jail free card. Elizabeth warren wrote he about this. I wanted to give a quote from one of the executives at these Financial Companies and they be have you talk about what it means. He says perhaps someone ought to remind the senator the campaign is over, and she should act accordingly if she wants to be taken seriously. Decipher that for me. Well, i mean, look, the conventional wisdom in washington, and remember, washington is a place that runs on money. Money from executives like you just quoted, so the conventional wisdom that that money creates is you can only be serious in washington if you dont ask tough questions of big money. So Campaign Contributions go in to legislators and the media relies on all sorts of corporate connections to fund it essentially itself, and so the notion of seriousness is wholly manufactured to say that somebody like Elizabeth Warren who asked a clearly straight forward question, why havent you prosecuted these people to take that question and say thats not serious. Whats unserious is the notion that a senator shouldnt ask questions, very simple questions about why the justice democratic hasnt prosecuted people connected to the biggest financial meltdown in contemporary history. Cenk you wrote about how theres a different between how the press treats first time Democratic Senators as opposed to first time republican senators. Thats really interesting. Tell us about that. Right approximate youve heard a lot about ted cruz, the senator from chicken, the tea party senator, the New York Times, big glowing quote about how hes a fire brand washingtons bad boy because hes on the right. When it comes to Democratic Senators, what you hear is please follow the Hillary Clinton model this notion she came in and had star power and laid low and didnt do very much, same thing for barack obama in the u. S. Senate. So the expectation, if not the mandate for liberal senators is follow this employed he will that says sit down and shut up. The encouraging thing about Elizabeth Warren is she is saying im going to play rules is i am here as a senator. I campaigned on these things. Shies effectively say i go made promises to voters about what i would stand up for and the serious thing to do is to stand up for those things and fulfill those pledges when im in office. Cenk i think part of what that executive is saying is hales know your role. Your roam as a democratic is to pretend to be progressive during the elections but once the election is over, your role is to work for us, the financial executives. Secondly, the democrats are paid to shut up and the republicans paid to run wild. Thats how we get the imbalance policy that we winds up getting not political results in terms of who wins, but policy results. Do you think this is a game where the democrats are supposed to lose on policy grounds, the republicans are supposed to win and that this is how they enforce snit. Thats exactly right. You can trace as the best example the 2008 president ial campaign when president obama campaigned on the most progressive platform of any president ial candidate successful president ial candidate in president ial history and then proceeds to ignore many of his campaign promises. At one point, he said about a trade treaty, the nafta trade treaty, he said essentially after he won said i was only kidding that i was essentially going to renegotiate that treaty. I throw that out there that there is this wink and nod where moneys interest funding cam pages saying we know you have to go and campaign in a certain way to win votes but the expectation is when you get to washington, you ignore everything you said on the campaign trail. Cenk well, thats why a lot of progressives are excited about Elizabeth Warren, because she doesnt seem to be playing that game, unlike Hillary Clinton barack obama and by the way a person whos largely been a failure so far al franken. He played that role, he first term, you shut up, bow your head and just play along. Let me just add one thing. I hope that Elizabeth Warren changes the dynamic. I hope that she is seen as an example of a path that can be followed by other good, earnest liberal senators who maybe can see an incentive in saying im not going to play by the old rules, im going to play by the rules that if liz we got warren can play by, so can i. Cenk thank you for joining us. Thanks, cenk. Cenk when we come back, here comes as i am to know bowls again, these are the guys trying to do the grand bargain where you would have to pay a lot more than the rich. Theyre back, including Alice Simpson. The guy that gets. Ed the most is the little guy.

Ok, so theres wiggle room in the ten commandments, thats what youre saying. You would rather deal with ahmadinejad than me. Absolutely. And so would mitt romney. vo shes joy behar. And the best part is that current will let me say anything. What the hell were they thinking . Cenk all right, were back on the young turks. The sequester is coming, everybody panic. President obama is actually incite be a little panic, saying the cuts will be drastic and the better approach is the balanced approach. Heres the president. Obama now the Congress Faces a simple choice. Are they willing to compromise to protect vital investments in health care and National Security and all the jobs that depend on them or would they put hundreds of thousands of jobs to put tax loopholes that face the wealthiest and corporations. Cenk it sounds great if the president actually meant it. He has always been in favor of the simpsonbowles commission, its his commission. Alice simpson is the republican, bowls the investment banker former chief of staff for bill clinton. They want to cut Social Security and medicare. They were doing a presentation and a heckler busted it. Pay your fair taxes. America wants to know. Pay your fair taxes. Go ahead and address this point. Excuse me. We agree. If you look at where the tax expenditures paid, theyre generally paid by people in the upper income brackets. Thats absolutely not true. We have major corporations and youre part of that that are not paying their fair share. 2 trillion in the last 10 years. Cenk now, look, im not a big fan of heckling, but i believe on the facts they were right. The corporations are avoiding giant amount of taxes but were going after Social Security and medicare as big pat of the cuts. Bowls explains. Theres no business in the country that makes its cuts across the board. You go in there and you try to surgically cut those things that have the least adverse effect on productivity, second youre cutting those areas where we need to invest, education Infrastructure Research and third, they dont make any cuts in those things growing faster than the economy with that thats stupid, stupid, stupid. Cenk hes saying do not do the sequester, because half that money comes from defense dont touch it lets go after Social Security and medicare. I dont trust this group one bit. Meanwhile, Alice Simpson says the magic words that president obama cares most about. He knows what to do, and if he doesnt get a handle on the entitlements and Social Security, he will have a failed presidency. Cenk oh, you better watch out for your legacy, if youre going to be a really good democratic president , you screw over democratic voters. The white house in the latest round of budget talks say they want another one and a half trillion dollars of deficit reduction. The g. O. P. Says no, 4 million. The new simpsonbowles said we should do 2. 4 trillion more. A chain c. P. I. Is fancy words for cutting Social Security. In the old proposal, simpsonbowles when first got together had a one to one ratio on spending doubts tax increases. Now its three to one. If you didnt like simpsonbowles before, youre not going to like the new one either. Lets bring in michael shore and patrick rice. The president is putting out scary language about the quester. Honestly im a little skeptical, but you tell me. How big are the cuts going to be and are they more concerned about the Discretionary Spending cuts or in washington, are they really more concerned about the defense cuts . I think that depends which part you look at. There are certainly a block of Democratic Party furious about this. They feel the chained c. P. I. Is a back doorway to cut Social Security. Theres a block clotter to the middle who sort of taken the idea that austerity is the direction we need to go in right now. On the right youve seen some shifting. For a long time, defense spending was unturnable but after demanding spending cuts, its a difficult time, as the republicans say wait a minute, not these spending cuts. Theres real momentum for this sequester going forward. The question is will it go forward in full or will there be some compromise in which some parts dont go forward and the burden of cuts is redirecting. Cenk thats important the republicans all of a sudden saying hey these defense cuts, we might have to do them. Its a little shocking, actually. Michael, are they bluffing in order to get the president to go ok, i dont want to do them either, or is it real that theyre willing to say if it means we get half the cuts from Discretionary Spending and half from defense, do the republicans mean it that theyre willing to take that deal . Its meeting halfway. Theres a little disarray in the republican party. Of course, everybodys out of town now. Congress is away, so the president right now is there by himself. Hes got First Responders around him, telling him whats going to go wrong. He is standing there with the bully pulpit with no one left to respond. You look at ther oh side, the republicans are passing the buck both to the president john boehner to the senate. This is what has been hurting the republicans. Thats why theyve losten oh the debt ceiling on the fiscal cliff. The idea here that this is going to, you know, kind of sway the president with the republicans i dont think its a matter of surveying him. I think its a matter of him owning it and theres no unified response, its only a winwin for him. Cenk interesting. Patrick, its a real interesting question as to what the progressives should want more. He made the point they are split at this point. A remove people call themselves progressives, but theyre thought, theyre just democrats. I want to show you some of the numbers on the chained c. P. I. And ask you where people should stand on this. Social security cuts with the chained c. N. I. Over oh 10 years is 112 billion in cuts. Thats significant. Over oh 12 years it costs you 1,272. Thats going to hurt some folks. Over 30 years you wind up losing 28,000 from your Social Security. Now thats a long time, 30 years but obviously people are not happy about that on the progressive side. Thats in the bowls simpson plan. The president cuts a lot from Discretionary Spending. Whats better or worse if youre a progressive . Its a nuance argument from both sides, people in favor of the chained c. P. I. Said you do see less money, but calculating how much thats worth to you in terms of the basket of goods that you can buy with that, it changes the form are a for calculating how inflation goes and how much things are really costing Senior Citizens and other recipients of entitlement programs. If youre a progressive, youre probably more oh skeptical answering that this is a lot of washington speak. What the bottom line is, this is taking a cult out of entitlement programs that i think most progressives would much prefer to see cut somewhere else. Cenk michael, i understand that these are put forward as the two options. Now, again if your a progressive, you dont like either option. In you at least the sequester half the cuts come from defense but the other half of across the board and theres a lot of pain as the president explains. I at least believe him halfway on that. Ok. Nowen oh simpsonbowles, its 31 in favor of spending cuts versus tax and it cuts medicare, medicaid, Social Security. Why doesnt the president introduce a third option with a progressive caucus option, one of doesnt have any of this, that says hey, wait a minute, it should come so much more from all the loopholes and the corporate taxes and what the hecklers were talking about. Im guessing that thats a rhetorical question, because you know the president youre dealing with. Hes not going to do that. I dont think hes going to allow Alice Simpson define his presidency and legacy. I dont think hes scared by simpsons words. Cenk thats where you and i disagree. I think obamas obsessed with his legacy. I believe he thinks his legacy depends on making sure that he defies his voters, his base, and that he cuts entitlements so he can look like a hero to washington. Well, he probably also thinks that his base was redefined last november that his base is not you all the time. I dont disagree with you. I think every second term president is consumed by their legacy. I think he sees a way out of this politically and sees victory without having to do the things that he might otherwise have had to do because of whatsen oh the other side. Listening to what patricks saying thats really compelling stuff. I dont think for progressives you also want to look past the defense. When the progressives see defense cuts, they love defense cuts. Thats what the sequestrations been all about. Few the president s going even further to appeal to the republicans to say these First Responders sitting behind me right now are all going to be out of a job. Its a oneway conversation, because everybodys on conversation. Cenk me personally, i take the sequester over simpsonbowles, protecting medicare, medicaid, Social Security and at least half the cuts come from defense. You know if you know this, but im not running washington. Patrick rice, Michael Shure great conversation. Thank you so much. Thanks for having me on. Cenk whistle blowers. Were supposed to be in the most Transparent Administration in history, according to the president , so then boy, we should be protecting whistle blowers, right . Wrong again bob. This administration is cracking down on them harder literally than any Previous Administration in american history. I never thought of myself as a whistle blower. Sometimes i go back and forth in my mind where i wish i had kept my mouth shut ander times i wish that i had shouted it from the rooftops. The chill of peppermint. The rich dark chocolate. York peppermint pattie get the sensation. Cenk heres one thing i know he about the Obama Administration. It is the most Transparent Administration in history. How do i know that . The president keeps telling me, as he did again last thursday. On a whole bunch of fronts, weaver kept that promise. This is the most Transparent Administration in history. Cenk oh well, if you say so. In you theres a new movie coming out called eye silence that might disagree. They talked to four whistle blowers that this administration cracked down on because they dared to reveal administration about the most Transparent Administration in history. Heres a part of the movie. The pap rat at us of the u. S. Government was turned against me. Every phone call youve ever made, emails youve sent, bank records, tax statements. What has happened to my family is a very tormented existence. Youre not loyal youre not a good american, youre a terrorist sympathizer. That secrecy regime despite president obamas pledges of transparency has only continued to expand. Im not the pushover that these guys think i am. Im as tough as they are and im going to fight. Cenk well, unfortunately hes lost that tight to some degree, hes about to go to prison. He revealed the tort u. Program. How dare he were going to bring in two people to talk about this. Its great to have both of you here. James, let me start with you. The president said on the issue of torture, he was only going to look forward but when it came to a whistle blower, he seemed to have looked backward, didnt he . Well, yeah, thats right and mr. Kirakue isnt the only one. The obama has invoked the espionage act now six times more than every other presidency combined. They are charging people with this, using this act to charge people not for leaking information to a foreign country for some sort of profit, but for talking to the press so its both kind of a worrisome crackdown on whistle blowers and kind of a back doorway to limit access to the press. I think people are starting to notice that. Cenk lindsey, you know, when you went to go publish your book, the c. I. A. I imagine went over it with a finetoothed comb, but are things getting more strident and stringent over the last 1015 years or so, or has the government always gone after anybody that revealed any information with a sledgehammer like they are today . Well, i think clearly that its becoming a lot worse for whistle blowers. Let me say that working at the c. I. A. O. N. S. A. Is probably an almost impossible environment for anyone who plans to blow the whistle on a program that is either seen add immoral or unethical. The woman who recruited me to work, her telling me if you ever sense that somethings wrong you need to tell someone you need to tell a superior at the agency. Yet it quickly became evident that really you had no recourse if you thought that something was wrong, or if you disagreed with policies. You had only one option, which was to approach an Agency Lawyer and the job of an Agency Lawyer is really to protect the agency. Cenk yeah, you know, i did seems to me based on, you know, my 17 years of covering politics, it has gotten substantially worse. You know, the government seems to be rigged and if you point it out in any way thats when they fall on you like a ton of bricks, while the banks torturers all get a get out of jail free card. To that point its not just kirakue. Tell me about the other three people in your movie. There are three other whistle blowers, probably the most well known is thomas drake who worked for the National Security agency at a very senior level. I believe he was the first one hit by the Obama Administration with charges including espionage act charges. In his case, it was related to releasing information about warrantless wiretapping, which actually started during the Bush Administration, and tom drake you know, tried to, two of your other guests pointed go through all the proper channels for years, tried to alert people to the problems with this program its illegality, the wastefulness, the gigantic amounts of money being spent to no avoluntarily. With no other recourse, he approached a reporter for the Baltimore Sun and with, mind you, he was so buttoned up about it, he only made sure that he was releasing no one classified information, but too bad for him, because his home was raided. He was hit with 10 are oh 11 charges, which could have resulted in 35 years in prison. He was a textbook whistle blower. He did everything by the book. The government eventually lost most of those charges were dropped. Tom drake ended up pleading guilty to a very minor charge, but in a way the mission was accomplished, because he was saddled with hundreds of thuses of dollars in legal bills because of this one conviction on the minor charge, he cant work in government again. He cant work for a Government Contractor again. They take people like this, and they destroy them. Those arent my words. Those are the words of tom drake. Cenk lindsey, i want to play one more clip from the movie here. I think its really powerful. I want to ask you about if theres any difference between bush and obama on this front. The only person whos going to prison for having anything related to do with the torture regime is the guy who blue the whistle. Those who did it arent going to prison. Those who conceived of the torture arent going to prison. Cenk i did we go any changes from the Obama Administration or are they helping the Bush Administration cover this up . They seem to be per peat waiting the cover up. Kirakue pointed out that obama has really surrounded himself with the same intelligence advisors that bush had and even though obama ostensibly opposed the at thure program calling for the closure have guantanamo, which we have not seen happen, this administration is really going after whistle blowers and kind of making an example in this case. Its kind of when we join the agency we swear an oath to defendant and protect the constitution, not the c. I. A. And not any particular administration. So its very troubling to see what happens when someone tries to speak out and say you know, im being asked to defend things that are not constitutionally legal and that are not part of the constitution. Cenk i love that you made that point, i think thats exactly right. I want to thank you for being on and james the owner of silence which you could help on kick starter, looks like an amazing movie. Thank you both for joining us, really appreciate it. When we come back, the tea party, Grassroots Organization that just started recently, right . Wrong again bob.

Now you can get all the online Trading Tools you need without any surprise fees. Its not rocket science. Its just common sense. From td ameritrade. Cenk you always hear from the tea party people, grassroots party, popped up because of the concern about the bailouts. The cofounder of the National Tea Party coalition on fox news. I think we heard this originally from nancy pelosi that Billionaires Fund the movement. There are about 3,000 local tea parties around the country and were funded really by the spare change in the couch that people put together, so no, we dont get any conservative billionaire money at the grassroots level. Cenk oh oh, no, no, no. Of course not. Thats until a study was done finding interesting things. They are actually funded by the Tobacco Companies and have been for a long time, and of course by the Koch Brothers. Heres an interesting screen capture from an old website welcome to the u. S. Tea party. It was formed around 2008, right . If you look at the bottom there, yeah, thats the copyright from 2002, from citizens for a sound economy, a group run by the Koch Brothers. Stay with me, of course, theyve been planning it all along. I want to bring in a guest here, brandon demel director of the smogblog. Com. Thanks for joining us. Tell me more about the citizens for a sound economy. How long have they been planning this Grassroots Tea Party . Thanks for having me, cenk. Yeah, citizens for a sound economy was a group funded by the coke brothers in the 1980s and in 2002 launched the teaparty. Com website, seven years ahead of the Popular Uprising that weve been led to believe by the tea party was a Grassroots Community level uprising. In fact, this has been in the works for at least a decade, and in fact as the study shows, back in the 1980s, the Tobacco Industry and other Oil Billionaires were plotting this through creating a network of astroturf front groups to represent their interests. As we all know, theres nobody that has less credibility than congress than the oil industry, and tobacco industries, since they were busted for lying to us about the detectiveness of their products, so the citizens for a sound economy ultimately became two grooms poor familiar to people these days, Freedom Works and americans for prosperity, which is still stared by david koch. These are groups ostensibly represent the grassroots but in fact are representing the interests of Oil Billionaires and not the american public. Cenk between 1991 and tow Phillip Morris put in 5. 3 million to citizens for a sound economy. Now, they didnt do that for their health or certainly for your health. They did it so they can get this fake grassroots to try to pretend like i cant believe you would tax the Tobacco Companies or regulate them in any way. This is broader than the Tobacco Companies, isnt it . Whether its the energy companies, the health care companies, the whole idea here is to get people and genuine people who i bet really believe it to come and basically work for these companies for their own interests for free, basically. Its a bit of a genius plan, isnt it . It really is. I mean, the Tobacco Companies in the memos uncovered with this research, it shows that the Tobacco Companies were talking about how they wanted to create a Movement Based around what they called platforms like liberty and freedom and choice, these values laden terms that define us as americans. They were going to use this movement to protect their narrow interests and do it to fight against tobacco excise taxes and any action on climate change. They were going to attack science whenever it was deemed necessary to protect their interests. They would rather have us all driving around in s. U. V. S and change smoking all day and hooking our kids on cigarettes. They are not interested in average americans paycheck stability and health care. Its ginned up to protect a very narrow set of interests. Cenk its amazing how long theyve been doing it. I sympathize with the tea partys interests. Thank you for joining us on the young turks. Were going to lighten it up a little bit. Are l. A. Women different than women in other cities and are they unbearable . . Were back on the young turks. Ive got the whole young turks i cant hear the actual young turks. Maureen, one of our producers are and an egyptian correspondent, ana kasparian. First time appearance and a secret conservative. What . I love that you disagree with me. Assemble this all star team, were going to talk about a very important topic l. A. Women. A video on line has gone viral about the women of l. A. Lets watch a little bit. This is a story about how i moved to hollywood to get shot down by girls so hot that you cant kiss when your face looks like andy dick. Cenk now, i dont disagree with him that much, but theres some chance he might have had issues in cleveland. Am i being too harsh women . This videos like theres no shocking truth bombs here that the short round comedian cant get laid. Im sure the truth carries over in miami, new york, cleveland everywhere its just a whiney dude. I like that hes self deprecating. Hes gotten a lot of heat from progressive women but im going to be the bad guy and say get over it. Its a joke, its funny. I enjoyed it. I think its partly a joke, but i do have a problem that the whole goal is to get women drunk to sleep with them. If you have to get a woman drunk to sleep with her you have to look at yourself and see what youre doing wrong. Maybe you have to have a personality, maybe be a little charming. Youre right and i should just shut my mouth but i cant help it. Every guy whos gone to college step one get everybody drunk. Ok including yourself, so you lose your inhibition. Thats as american as apple pie. These are grown men who are going out and actually making fun of a woman for being scared of a d. U. I. In that one clip, if you watch the whole video, i mean. Cenk but let me go to the guy. Wait, i think thats the truest thing in the video because like in l. A. , nobodys ever drunk ok, good thing right because everybody drivers like three hours, because l. A. s so large so everybodys stone cold sober arent they . Thats true. First of all as the only single guy on the panel i have to say i fully disagree with these stereotypes and l. A. Has the most wonderful [ laughter ] that ive ever met. I dont drive by choice and ive never run into any of the frustrations that this guy has. Cenk thats a problem. James chooses not to drive a lot of women do. What this does, the worst thing it does, the serious sides of it, it brings these mischaracterizations of the city of l. A. Every corner, you say you can drive three hours. Every corner has a different kind of women in it. Dont go to sunset, dont go to hollywood, go to silver lake, go to the beaches. Theres a difference everywhere you go. He does go to silver lake, but the hipsters are not into him, amazingly so. Cenk when i lived in miami people would say how can he live there, everybody is empty. Theres plenty of brilliant people in miami depends who youre hanging out with. Come on guys, isnt there a kernel of truth that people are looking out the corner of their eye to see who is popular. Women in d. C. Are looking for the most powerful politician. Its not symbolic of only angelinas. Women are attracted to power. Im an actor its like really lets look up. Caller mdb. Cenk the classic mistake is when you list too many things, actor, writer producer, director, in other words none of it. Keep it real. I want to play one more clip. Lets watch this. Youre a joke, because youre broke. Were the women in l. A. Cenk ok. Its raw. I lived in new york. I lived in a lot of places. New york was awesome as a single guy. You walk you the everybodys stumbling, bumbling drunk and having fun. Nobody drove. Honestly, people still drink and drive here. Its not like when we go out everybodys sober just because theyre driving. There are people drinking. Cenk i dont want them to drink and drive but the ironic thing is were going to have a discussion about public transportation. Its the way to go. Trying to get you guys on the train, so to speak for months. You take buses and stuff. I do. I take the train to work. Cenk theres no way in the world youre getting to woman to go on the bus with you and go back home. Thats never happened. Maybe a subway train, maybe a taxi cab. Cenk youre splurging on the taxi. The best part is youll end up it works. In college in reality women dont go out just to not get laid. Theyre looking for it, too. If youre charming enough. Cenk of course, were both human beings. The premise was theyre looking to shoot you down. The ones who shoot you down stay home. I dont think thats true. Men dont want to do the work. Just because you offer a girl a drink doesnt mean shes going to go hem with you. Cenk to which i say of course of course but the flip side is in l. A. , when i was single, i showed up on dates with my pontiac grand am. I got plenty of dates but there were a couple of women who were like youre kidding. Bmw and mercedes drivers do it, it works. Cenk it does work. When we come back, one final point you dont want to miss
