0:11 This is Carmen and this is Estodias Unknown, a podcast where we talk about Latin American history. Sometimes it's horrible and deals with taby topics like racism, corruption, and genocide. But more than that, it's also about resistance, power and community. And today today is not a normal episode because the holidays. But also Christina can talk, she lost her voice, so instead, here is a snippet of our Yuppies, our new annual award show that we did over on Patreon. Right now, we have thirty percent of Patreon memberships if you want to check that out. Okay, enjoy the snippet of a bonus episode and we'll be back next week. Bye. Hello everyone.
0:52 We are here for a annual, an annual tradition. We're starting, Yes, yes, our new annual. I feel like I can't say that fucking word. Wow, annual right, sound weird? Oh that's annual yearly, our yearly tradition. We have an awards ceremony, the Yayeppies. I'm gonna put some clapping sound effects here. Yes, next you we should dress up. Yeah this was very last minute actually, but next will be prepared. This morning should get like crowns and everything. Yes, well, like we're like the hosts, like if we were hosting. Yeah, I will have like a shirt that looks like a tux. Oh my god, I'm not getting a text for this. That'd be ridiculous. And I don't know why your first thought was tucks. Well because very mask of you. Well, usually there's not bidding the lesbian allegations, are you not? No, I'm never I never will sadly go first, because there's all is like a guy and girl. Host reminded me of Parks and reg when Leslie comes and then everyone dating my favorite. Okay, so the yuppies, we have some categories. Basically, we're just going to go through some categories that we made up this year. And then, of course this was
2:23 so less minute. No one has a chance to vote except ourselves. Yeah, but maybe maybe next year we'll open up the polls. Yeah, that'd be fun. So the first category we have is, wait, let's the GRIFTU the year last? No last? Okay, you're right, Okay, we have some categories. One we couldn't think of. Wait, wait, say, why don't we go over all the categories and then we'll go over you know what, you take the lead. I'm sorry. I just thought maybe it would be good to do that, but we don't have to because like three things. I was going to start talking it right, and I was like, wait, wait, wait, because Grifter of the Year or is the big one, isn't it? Or do you think Villain of the Year is bigger? They're all big. I guess you know what.
3:05 Let's just go and order the organize. Oh oka, right, yeah, but let's read all the categories. Like you said, said that was a good idea, Thank you. We have Grifter of the Year, Convict of the Year, a fair of the Year, a Bilain of the Year, and a moral panic of the year. Yes, yes, okay, okay, So let's take things off. Let's start off with the Grifter of the Year. So for the nominees to get away, Christina, we have Erica Kirk. I'm gonna put little clips of each one of them after I say, sir, yes, Erica Kirk. The podcast are Candace owns Okay, at one time a friend of Charlie's, at one time an employee of Turning Point.
3:48 She has been one of the main peddlers of these conspiracies and she is making a huge amount of money on it. She is building her business off of these lives. What do you want to say to. Her and the other people that are putting these lies out into the world right now? Stop? That's all I have to say. Stop, stop, Stop college essay girl. Men and there's women and God created us equally with different gifts and abilities, and that our society is better off living with that structure and that idea in mind.
4:29 And yeah, I forgot her name something finocchy. Oh my god. I was to say something Carbuokley. I was like, kind of make up a fucking last name. Close. Yeah, Candice Owens honestly always grow through or like I think she's just at a Yeah, she's always been grift. Well we'll talk about yes, thank you, That's where I was going. Yeah, and Nicki Minaj, they're young men. You have amazing role models like our handsome, dashing president.
5:11 And you have amazing role models like. The assassin JD. Van's our vice president, assassin assassin assassin. And you were entry. I think, to me, they're all winners, but one stands out above the rest to you, to you, who is that? Yeah? I guess maybe we can get into briefly why we nominated these people, right, Okay, Well, immediately you wrote Erica Kirk so fast, I didn't make it the type it. Why did you nominate her? Why not? Well, because she is she's grifting off the murder. She's grifting off her husband's murderer. And if that's not the biggest grift of them all. But I mean, his body wasn't even cold yet, and she was coming out like a wrestler at a event. She was coming out like what's a wrestler? I can't think of. Oh, I don't know as Oh, yeah, there you go. I can't remember his name. Austin, make something stone cold, Steve Austin. My bad those ice creams, yes, my favorite ice cream actually coming out. Fireworks are blazing in her sequin suits, her leather pants, crazy outfit's crazy work.
6:36 Her clothes all black because she's screaming. But her her glitter suit was like gold, wasn't it. Oh? I thought it was like black bust sequin. Maybe I don't remember anymore, but ever since Charlie was killed and uh yeah, in her shiny outfits, makeup done to the tea, and her dramatic ass. I don't know what else to call it, but her number one move besides the glaring, is to look up in the sky and then put the little tissue in her corner of her eye. But the turning point something what is it called, oh, America Fest? Is it called America Fest or is it called something else? America? First? Coming up? Right, It hasn't happened. Something just happened from a turning point that they put on. Oh that was a just I'm like, why do they happen so many events?
7:23 Have they always had this many events? I don't know, honestly, because I feel like she's been everywhere and there's been like all as a funeral. I think they've been rallying and stuff. But she's also been on talk shows and podcasts and stuff. True. True, I mean she's CBS. Hence the grifting. She's doing her round, grifting everywhere and anywhere she can. Recently was grifting with Barry Weiss, who I, yes, I thought was a man of first. I don't think Barry would like that, but I did think that at first, before I knew what she looked like and had heard her voice. That should be a honorable mention. Yeah, at a recent turning point event, I forgot what it was called.
8:06 She was presenting. Who is she presenting? She's presenting somebody. But she had what they call it Freudian slip. I feel like I can't say that word either, Freudian Freudian. That's wrong. I know that's wrong. Anyway, where she said, what does she say? Who was that? I don't know. That's why I said I can't remember who she was presenting. But she was like she I think she wants to say, gift. Hold on, I have it. I reposted it, so let me just find it. Okay, And when you're saying that, I'll put the clip in here as well. See, let's see. Caleb chilcut, a rising senior and chapter president at Utah Valley University, has been involved with Turning Point USA since twenty twenty three. Despite the devastating loss of Charlie Kirk, my incredible husband. Yes she's a very blackmore, Caleb has persisted with the same grift, excuse me, gift grit. It has been a long day. Trust me, you're not a grifter, honey.
9:07 It's all good, the same grit. But yeah, so that reason that was from a day ago. Yeah it was America Fest, that was right. But yeah, so that's why she was nominated and is our winner. Do you have anything else about Oh my god, I gonna talk. Do you have anything else to add about her? No, other than I've really been enjoying the means of her grieving it. Yeah, and she's like smiling or people putting the ditty song or the evil Stare memes, Oh yes, all of the memes. Actually enjoying all of them. And she really is. I think I think Charlie's passing was a blessing to her. Oh yeah, she would have never been at the forefront of anything. No, so yeah, this was the ultimate grift.
9:54 Another grift around her list is actually blaming her for his death. Her and Israel and Candace. That'll be Candae owns that will because and honestly, there's so much to say about her, But I mean, she got her start before she became any semblance of what she is today. She was supposedly a Democrat. She has some kind of like channel online, website online about that kind of stuff. And then I cannot remember what happened exactly that people turned against her, but something she did. She was an innocent in this, maybe some scam, I'm not sure, because you know, she was always a grifter. Something happened and then she was like, oh, they're canceling me. They're canceling.
10:39 And what does anyone do when they're facing any kind of controversy, any kind of quote unquote canceling, de veer to a certain direction, the right, Yes, and so ever since then she has been grifting the right. That's when my grifts started. Yeah, and she was actually part of Turning Point USA at one point. Yeah, and her and Charlie were besties. They were besties, but she was actually too anti semitic fortune point. That's what happened right when she was fired. But she never stopped being Bessies was Charlie and she he doesn't even seem like he never seemed like a real person to me, because like someone that could experience joy, because I ever only saw him angry. Right, And then she posted these videos of him. They're singing, their dancing. I'm I think the most human I've ever seen this man. Yeah, and to be fair, I was never looking for it, right, No, true, And I don't know what kind of public image or social media his wife had before he died, so I don't know if she would post it like that. But I don't think so.
11:40 I don't know, but yeah, everyone's saying that Kennics Owns was the side chick. I don't think so. I don't think that she's Charlie's type on count of his racism. I also don't know that he's capable of having an attraction to anyone other than himself talking onto the camera. I mean, presumably he's attracted to Erica or what sorry was that was his duty? You're right, right, that was out of obligation. M hmm, exactly. And so now Candace is making the headlines drifting even people they're not exactly on the right, because she's supposedly bringing truth to power about Charlie's death and finding out the truth, tying it all back to France, Israel and Erica. Honestly, it's kind of sad because she's well silly. She's blaming Erica for Charlie's seth saying that the moably is grieving the thing is at least publicly, she doesn't see ever seem sad, you know, so it doesn't make her seem guilty. Who was more sad, Candace Owens or Erica Kirk. Definitely Candace at least publicly, So yeah, that's part of the grifts possibly though, but yeah, I think recently on her podcast she said that days before Charlie was killed, Erica Kirk
13:16 met with someone in the White House, and so she's like alluding to that they were plotting his murder. Also, hours before he was killed, up Egypt plane military plane landed in Utah, and she's somehow ty in it Egypt with somehow which somehow incriminated somehow, also tying it to France and Israel. Is it. It doesn't make any sense because she's delusional, she's not the mind. No. Yeah, and another thing she's like hardcore being drifting. The ultimate greft was her shift from talking hardcore about like politics to then like tying celebrity drama soelearly drama. But not only that, hitting hard on the anti Israel because she's anti Semitic, not because she doesn't believe in the illegitimate state. But that's why I'm saying, like, those are these things being like the celebrity drama talking about that and talking about Israel has brought more viewers to her side that are into celebrity drama and against Israel. Like she's bringing those viewers in. But it's it's it's part of the grief, Like she doesn't mean anything. But that's why to me, she's the most entrepreneurial. Well, no, it still goes to Erica Kirk, I think. But she's like right up there, she's so close. They might be tied actually, just like they were tied in Charlie's heart, because Erica
14:51 is like working her way up top to jd vanton his couch, you know what I mean. Yeah, she's like she's making that happen. And I think I think, if it should die mysteriously next year, none of us, we should actually should look into America. She already got rid of Charlie per Candace is what she says, you know. And then if usha on top of that, something happens to her to pattern at this point, should they be tired? No, I think because Erica came into the game so late and so late to gain where she is, I think that's why she has to win. Okay, Well, she's definitely number one, and I feel like I give the runner up to Candace one hundred. The runner up is Candas there's no I mean, she was so close to winning. Yeah, and our other nominees were Nicki. Oh we already said them, right, Yeah, So I put Nicki Minaj before Essay Girl. Oh that's what I was just gonna say. I was gonna say if there was a last place, and definitely go to Essay Girl. But I guess because it was such an obvious, obvious grift, too try hard, too obvious, it was never gonna work. She doesn't have the personality to be a grifter.
16:07 To be a grifter, you had to have some kind of personality that brings attention, you know, like you can't just be playing un buttered toast. Yes, she had no public speaking skills, which automatically put her back down to last spot. Although I do believe she deserves to be a nominee for trying, because for trying and in the end she got what she wanted fired. Yeah, yeah, which is unfortunate, very unfortunate. And then, yeah, Niki Mi Naj, this is an obvious grift because your career is felling because of her cocaine addiction and pedophile husband and pedofile brother.
16:51 It's just a habit, a pattern and a lifestyle. She surround herself with pedophiles, goes on cook aunt attacks, Cardi B so many other text her fans, Yeah, her fans, And it's like, what do you do when everything else is failing and you can't produce a hit? You veer to the right. Yeah, you're weird to the right and you pandered to the right. And that's exactly what she is. And that's why she has her spot as the third because she's not good at it either, but she has she has made some moves. She has made some progress, okay, because look she she went to the UN on behalf of this regime because of her drifting, Like she literally she started. I don't know when she started, but like I remember she it was quick. It was so quick because she thanked Trump for speaking out for the Christians in Nigeria. Next thing you know, she's at the fucking UN talking about this and I'm like, bitch, what do you even know? And she doesn't know anything because her speech sucked. Her speech sucked. And she's always been kind of horrible, right, Like she attacks all yeah, the seeds that lead to this, have they been there? Yeah? Yeah, I couldn't even begin to name all, like her attacking female rappers, that's always been a thing. Yeah, yeah, And I should have been signed number one, and I'm glad to say that. I was never a fan except one song or two songs. I like the song she had with Ariana Grande. I just know that they say dick bicycle in the song. And oh I didn't like that
18:23 song too. Yeah, that was my workout playlist. And then the other one that you that was in my raduplaylist, and yeah, I forgot the name of it. She's like, you want a bad guy tune? Lee, Yeah, I like that song and it's a good song, but I did take it off for my playlist. But yeah, because she's out here speaking at the Yuan, she was at America Fest. She was at Oh wait, wait, you saw this. I know you saw it. Yeah, no, I forgot. I had forgotten, but I was like, no, she was at America Fest. Because at America Fest, speaking with the one and only Eric Erica touches all of our grifters. That's why she's not number one number Okay, okay, So America Fest, nikim Na, she was speaking with the number one grifter Erica Kirk.
19:18 And what did she say about an assassin? Oh, she called I don't know what the context of this because I haven't watch any actual clips of whatever the fuck they talked about, but she called JD Vanson assassin and it actually happened. I wanted to add another murder of the year as we're talking about this. Oh yeah, well, okay, are we done with the grifters? I think so? I think okay, let's one more, one more thing. Sorry. Since Nicki Minaj was America Fest, old clips of Charlie Kirk talking shit about Kiminaj have been resurvicing. It's just hilarious. Oh yeah, yeah. And although I will say I don't like any of the words that come out of his mouth, but he knows right in saying that him nah is not an idol, no young but for anyone, for anyone, No, yeah.
20:07 And of course he wasn't saying it in good faith. He was saying no, no, he was this. Yeah. But in the end, a broken clock can be right twice a day or wherever the fuck.
