from The Off Season | The Tim Dillon Show #316 · #316

9 min

Tim riffs at length on DeSantis sending migrants to Martha's Vineyard 'off season,' treating it as a real estate and social-calendar issue rather than a political one, joking about renting first and assimilating into the Hamptons/vineyard/Palm Beach seasonal culture.

In this bit10 moments
  • DeSantis sending migrants to Martha's Vineyard after Labor Day is cruel because it's off-season.
  • The real season on Martha's Vineyard, the Cape, and Nantucket runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
  • In fall, wealthy people spend time in New York; in winter they go to Aspen, Jackson Hole, or St. Barth's.
  • Sending migrants off-season means they miss all the good parties and networking.
  • Fall on Martha's Vineyard is about LARPing as a poor person with big sweatshirts and old jeans.
  • Immigrants need to assimilate into the culture: Hamptons and Vineyard in summer, Palm Beach in winter, New York in spring and fall.
  • If migrants are looking at houses off-season to avoid heat and traffic, Tim can respect that.
  • Tim explains to every migrant he meets that Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket are their own thing with older money and finance people.
  • Migrants should rent first, not buy immediately, to figure out which resort destination suits them.
  • DeSantis is sadistic for sending migrants off-season to the Vineyard without telling them to rent first and understand the culture.
