Full Episode
Hey, I'm Ryan Reynolds. Recently, I asked Mint Mobile's legal team if big wireless companies are allowed to raise prices due to inflation. They said yes. And then when I asked if raising prices technically violates those onerous two-year contracts, they said, what the f*** are you talking about, you insane Hollywood a**hole?
So to recap, we're cutting the price of Mint Unlimited from $30 a month to just $15 a month. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch.
$45 upfront payment equivalent to $15 per month. New customers on first three-month plan only. Taxes and fees extra. Speeds lower above 40 gigabytes in details.
The civil rights movement said, hey, look at these people that have been marginalized in our country and their ancestors have been enslaved in the country. So we should...
make some pathways to bring them to the table okay but that's very different than what dei has become in a lot of places which is to say we need to reserve these 10 spots yeah that i'm not a fan of regardless of what they think regardless of like these 10 spots are reserved for people just because of their skin color right and i don't think that's bad i think that's very very damaging and i think it leads to people saying hey the only reason that person got their position was because of their skin color right and that's bad yeah like that's bad for everyone
All right, guys, Matt Dearden here today, someone I found on TikTok, believe it or not. Thanks for coming on, man.
Yeah, I'm with all the young people on there. Yeah.
What made you want to get on that platform?
I think for me, it was I've been toying with it for a while, but then it got to the summer of this this past year in 2024. And I noticed that there was just really bad history and con law content on there. So no one knew what they were talking about. And so I come from kind of the academic world originally. I teach history and some constitutional law.
