Adam's guest today, Dr. Phil. Plus the news with the Washington Examiner's Alicia Krause. And now...

164.309 - 168.674 Unknown

Ready to wrap up and put a bow on a great year of podcasting.

170.636 - 195.992 Dr. Phil

Adam Carolla. Get it on. Got to get it on. No choice but get it on. Mandate. Get it on. Dr. Phil is our guest today. He's zooming in. He's got a podcast, Dr. Phil Podcast. It's going to launch on Podcast One this month, so look out for that. DrPhil.com is where you go for all the information. Good to see you, Phil. Good to see you, Adam. How you been, man? I've been well.

Chapter 2: How does Dr. Phil describe the evolution of his work?

677.801 - 702.127 Dr. Phil

Have a merry Christmas. they're, they're using the word safe. They're putting safe. And by the way, it's in the vernacular now. Like I, you walk out, you know, have a safe drive, have safe, safe flight, safe, safe, have a safe day. It's like, we are taking this safe thing and we're pushing it out hard. And then when something comes around like COVID, we go, okay, safety first, safety first.

0

702.508 - 737.447 Dr. Phil

And then we start locking down schools and we start masking up two-year-olds and, and, we are hurting our kids with this safety Uber Alice. And I'm wondering how much of it do you think is connected to in the, in recent history, an influx of women who, who are in positions of leadership and who have a tendency to focus more on safety than, let's say, speed or efficiency or something like that.

0

737.908 - 763.213 Dr. Phil

I live in Los Angeles. We have a mayor, Karen Bass. Donald Trump is talking about rebuilding the Palisades, and she's yelling, safe, safety, but safe. Slow it down, safe. We are getting so inundated with safety that I don't think we're able, we're stifling ourselves. Could you imagine trying to build the Golden Gate Bridge today in California?

0

764.135 - 769.568 Dr. Phil

That would take 150 years, but it'd all be in the name of safety.

0

770.172 - 774.946 Adam Carolla

Is that why they're not getting permits? Is that why nobody's getting permits out there?

774.966 - 813.791 Dr. Phil

I am telling you, as a former contractor, I... who lives in Malibu, and I tour the devastation on a daily basis. I can't help it. It's part of my commute. And they are building one place and one place only in Malibu. There's one construction site on Pacific Coast Highway on the ocean. And so far, they have sunk... Thirty five caissons, cement caissons, six stories into the ground.

813.871 - 825.61 Dr. Phil

They are building a seawall. They are building what I would refer to as Hitler's bunker, essentially, with hundreds of yards of concrete and rebar and caissons and.

825.995 - 854.517 Dr. Phil

pylons and it is insane what they're forcing them to do but it's all in the name of safety and then there's the coastal commission and that's another environmental thing but that that circles back to safety and so it's just oodles of women in charge of when we're building and how fast we're building and what we're going to build and when you just keep talking about safety

855.661 - 882.49 Dr. Phil

What I used to build here in Los Angeles in the 80s and in the 90s, the stuff that I'm building today does not resemble that at all because everything is 10 times as safe. It's 10 times thicker, 10 times deeper, 10 times wider. It is insane. I can show you, Dr. Phil, a picture of this little film of this beachfront thing.

Chapter 3: What are the key issues with modern parenting discussed?

1458.52 - 1476.664 Dr. Phil

I don't understand why people don't understand what's going on. And I guess the question for you, Dr. Phil, is have these folks sort of hit their saturation level? Are they looking for something new or they just want to keep going down the same road?

1478.045 - 1505.853 Adam Carolla

Well, I think what happens is, and I hate this, I saw this on the UCLA campus. I was on the UCLA campus when they took down the encampment there that was blocking the Jewish students from getting to their classes and intimidating those students. And finally, they came in and took that encampment down so those students weren't intimidated. But it was interesting.

Chapter 4: How does Dr. Phil view the impact of safety culture on children?

2539.286 - 2559.442 Dr. Phil

You guys know I like numbers, so here's a good one. 90% of Hydro users are still active a year later. It's low impact, high intensity, perfect for people... who are working hard and have busy lives and don't want to wreck their joints running up and down on the hard concrete. It's Hydro, right, Dawson?

0

2579.24 - 2605.382 Dr. Phil

pretty much whether you're LAPD or you're bouncing at a bar, your first wish is that the drunken guy would just leave and it wouldn't get physical and you wouldn't knock anything over or break anything, or you might get hurt or stabbed as well. Like I, I, you know, we have this thing where like this bar bouncer wants to bounce. It's like, I'll bet he prays every night. Nothing ever happens.

0

2605.362 - 2625.107 Dr. Phil

He'll stand there by the door. But he doesn't want to tear his jeans up and get stabbed and bloody and wrestle out onto the sidewalk. He doesn't want to do it. And the cops are the same as the bouncer. They'd like you just to go home. And when they pull you over, they just want you to cooperate and don't roll up the window and don't fly them the bird and don't get out and threaten them.

0

2625.147 - 2657.941 Dr. Phil

They don't want any of that. So it's insane to even think that anybody would want – So the question then is, is, is, The bottom line, chaos? I'm trying to figure out what the upshot is. What are we looking for? What do you want? What does George Soros want? What do all these protesters want? What do these crazy DAs want? Is it literally just chaos? Because everything seems to just be chaos.

2658.441 - 2672.716 Dr. Phil

I mean, they talk about change and they talk about being treated with dignity in a place at the table and stuff like that. But at the end of the day, all that ever comes out the other end is chaos. And I don't know what they want. Defund the police is chaos.

2673.197 - 2697.971 Adam Carolla

I think you're labeling it. I think you're labeling it. I think if they can be disruptive of what's going on, if you can disrupt the campus, if you can disrupt the community, if you can create chaos, then somebody has to come in and reorganize and take control. And they're hoping if they can get a breakdown of... status quo.

2698.032 - 2729.269 Adam Carolla

If they can get a breakdown of what is currently the norm, then somebody has to come in with a new plan and they're the ones with the new plan. We'll come in and say, okay, your way didn't work. We've seen that. It just went into chaos. So here are the new rules. Here are the new definitions of Here are the new standards for hiring. Here are the new standards for performance.

2729.309 - 2755.531 Adam Carolla

Here are the new standards. And we're going to write those and we'll be in control. Your way failed. So people say we don't want to repeat something that failed. So we'll turn to a new way. And they're the new option. They're the new way. Look, Adam, right now. We have a crisis happening in America that's silent. Our education system is in collapse right now.

Chapter 5: What does Dr. Phil say about personal responsibility in the context of societal issues?

4194.675 - 4215.141 Dr. Phil

Okay. Sarah Paulson is not a household name or face. So I wouldn't go lights up on her. I'd go lights up on. Anyway, I think this is the response. Take responsibility.org. Yeah, this is the response to George Floyd, I believe. Now, all done from the triple-gated estates, but this is good.

0

4216.001 - 4217.383 Unknown

I take responsibility.

0

4219.945 - 4223.269 Dr. Phil

I take responsibility. I don't know who this is.

0

4223.289 - 4224.129 Unknown

Okay, Kesha.

0

Chapter 6: How does the discussion shift to stereotypes and their implications?

4224.149 - 4232.858 Unknown

That's Kesha. I take responsibility for every unchecked moment, for every time it was easier to ignore than to call it out for what it was.

0

4233.344 - 4254.032 Dr. Phil

Every not so funny joke. All right, pause. Who's this? It's a really random spot to pause. I have no idea. Oh, that's Justin Theroux. Oh, Jennifer Aniston's ex? Yes, that's her. She's very serious about what's going on here. Every unfair stereotype.

0

4254.793 - 4257.397 Unknown

Every blatant injustice, no matter how big or small.

0

4257.517 - 4269.391 Dr. Phil

By the way, let me just say something. Stereotypes are all fair. You earn a stereotype. You earn a stereotype. If the stereotype isn't earned, it's like a nickname.

0

Chapter 7: What are the key points made about law enforcement and community safety?

4269.851 - 4302.982 Dr. Phil

It just doesn't work. I used to have the wheel of ethnic stereotypes. Yes. So if you go... So on the wheel of ethnic stereotypes, I go... runs Hollywood in the financial district industry and in the garment industry, and then you spin it around and it lands on Mexican, and you go... That sounds like a game Nick Fuentes would always kiss the Jews. It doesn't make sense.

0

4303.002 - 4329.202 Dr. Phil

It doesn't make... But if you said, does all the gardening, does all the cinder block work, and stucco, and construction, you spin it around, it lands on the Jews, you go, no. No, that doesn't work. Right, so... Stereotypes are all earned because otherwise they don't make sense. And there's some stereotypes that I think you should be proud of. Some are good. Some are like super family-oriented.

0

4329.222 - 4351.894 Dr. Phil

I'm a blonde, but in the words, you know, Dolly, I ain't no dumb blonde, but I think sometimes I use the stereotype to get away with things. People, you aren't... Look, if you... I say this all the time. If you said to someone, you know how every time it seems like I'm running late and I'm trying to get to the airport and I'm on the freeway and I got some German dude in front of me, you go, what?

0

4352.448 - 4368.228 Dr. Phil

You know, the German guy in front of me. It's like, no, no. If you said Asian woman, then maybe you'd go, oh, OK. So you have to earn a stereotype. So you have to bind. I bind all of them because they're all true. Yep. Because otherwise it won't work.

0

Chapter 8: How does the conversation conclude regarding societal accountability?

4368.388 - 4373.314 Dr. Phil

All right. This is. Oh, God. What's his name? Is this Mark? Is the brothers?

0

4373.415 - 4373.675 Unknown

Yeah.

0

4373.695 - 4375.577 Dr. Phil

They were on the project. Duplass Brothers.

0

4375.597 - 4382.496 Unknown

That's right. One of them. So here we go. Every time I remained silent. Every time I explained away police brutality.

0

4382.938 - 4385.331 Dr. Phil

That's Howard. Or turned a blind eye.

4385.854 - 4392.591 Unknown

I take responsibility. Black people are being slaughtered in the streets, killed in their own homes.

4392.951 - 4413.959 Dr. Phil

These are our brothers and sisters, our friends, our family. When were they slaughtered in the streets? Well, when they shoot each other in drive-bys, right? They kill each other in terms of the streets. But this was in the throes of Ferguson, George Floyd, so the representation is that it's police officers that are doing this. Yeah, hands up, don't you?

4413.999 - 4431.407 Dr. Phil

Well, if these people really cared, they would pay attention to maternal health care and how more black women die every year at the hand of OBGYNs and birth defects than they do at the hands of cops. Well, they can't sleep in their own beds. They're slaughtered. I love it. It's like scared to leave the house. I don't know. I've seen brothers shopping.

4432.208 - 4449.569 Dr. Phil

They don't seem to be looking over their shoulders. But all right. Who's this one? Oh, what's her face? Yeah, see, this is my problem. My kids were just watching Cheaper by the Dozen, and she's the oldest daughter in Cheaper by the Dozen that dates Ashton Kutcher. The one with Steve Martin and Bonnie.
