00:02:59.000They're just a 50s rock and roll band who played too fast.
00:03:03.000I think because they were nervous because they're so dumb.
00:03:05.000And so they called it this incredible punk revolution.
00:03:08.000But the fact that they churned out two albums a year shows that they have that New York thing where you know it's not going to last.
00:03:17.000So when something blows up, seize it and just keep milking it and milking it and milking it before it dies because you know it's going to die.
00:03:24.000So when you have an opportunity, when a door opens, you wipe it open with a crowbar and go bananas.
00:03:59.000He had one opportunity with the New York Times magazine and he spent a fortune, probably $2,000, renting underwater cameras to shoot the Olympic swimmers.
00:04:08.000They went, wow, you get what you pay for with this kid.
00:04:11.000And started his photography career that's unshakable now.
00:04:14.000Also on that album, Road to Ruin, is the song Bad Brain.
00:05:02.000These dummies from Queens just went, all right, we're popular now.
00:05:06.000Let's fucking go on 100,000 tours and put out a million albums and make our mark.
00:05:12.000And they did, and now they're immortal.
00:05:15.000Speaking of bad brains, I was listening to Soulcraft the other day, and I realized that if you take away HR's vocals, it sounds exactly like Metallica.
00:06:54.000They probably got instrumentals for that.
00:06:55.000The reason I bring up all this punk is not just that it's the anniversary of Road to Ruin, September 21st, 1978, but that John Joseph of the Cro-Mags is back doing his walking tours.
00:07:18.000He also talks about being an orphan, being a street kid in New York City and selling drugs and getting the shit beat out of them and beating the shit out of people and dealing.
00:07:27.000They used to go to Madison Square Gardens and deal acid, but they didn't have any acid.
00:07:32.000So they just give them pieces of paper and then you got to fucking run because eventually someone's going to realize that they got ripped off.
00:19:28.000These teenagers today see Pictures of all their best friends, like seven of them, in Brooklyn, like laughing their heads off, jumping off a thing.
00:19:38.000That's where I asked the woman about the rich guy's house.
00:19:41.000Mark Twain lived there for many years.
00:24:02.000So she, I guess, does a show with some guy, James Klig.
00:24:08.000I don't know these people, but you see some guy come up behind her in that clip we're about to play, and he yanks her hair and then walks, runs away like a little bitch.
00:24:17.000Imagine being such a bitch that you go up to a woman, yank her hair back, and then slither away.
00:25:20.000This is like that Oakland thing where they thought that Proud Boys were celebrating the assassination of that Nia Wilson girl.
00:25:27.000And then someone showed up to the vigil in an American flag shirt and they thought he was a Proud Boy, so they beat the shit out of him while calling him a faggot.
00:27:09.000So Belly of the Beast, calling all patriots.
00:27:12.000Remember, if you recall, they said that Proud Boys are having a celebration after the synagogue shooting, and they attacked these two Marines and called them Spix and Wetbacks because they were Proud Boys.
00:27:24.000And the Marines are like, what's a Proud Boy?
00:27:26.000I'm just here because it's my day off.
00:37:12.000Let's see what this poor old black lady is saying.
00:37:14.000I've been hearing your frustrations, and I would love for you to share them with the community right now because you and so many others are going through such a rough time.
00:38:39.000And cops are overly militarized, undertrained, and generally have low IQ.
00:38:44.000But this, none of this applies to the fucking criminals like George Floyd, which is a dangerous cocktail, but no, they don't deserve to die.
00:38:54.000The guys he's quoting, and I'm talking about a link where Tommy Robinson was, what was it, Tommy Robinson link that said, burning a thing saying blue lives splatter and talking about killing cops.
00:39:10.000And I said, how do you feel about your tattoo now with all this shit?
00:39:13.000And he says, they don't deserve to die.
00:39:19.000The guy he's quoting are the left's version of Tom Metzger.
00:39:22.000Tom Metzger was a popular Nazi back in the 80s, all the Nazi skinheads liked.
00:39:26.000So he's saying that, Gavin, you're using the alt-left and comparing them to me.
00:40:23.000And then he said this, this is why I'm bringing this up.
00:40:25.000He goes, if you ask black men from all social strata, they will mostly say that they are afraid for their life when pulled over or approached by the pigs.
00:40:33.000He just uses the word pigs for cops like it's normal.
00:40:36.000When I was a kid, I would routinely tell cops to fuck off and generally be a smartass.
00:40:40.000Not sure teenage black men today get the same latitude.
00:42:02.000The Center for American Liberty has filed lawsuits against Antifa and its individual members to hold them accountable for their disgusting acts.
00:42:09.000Your generous tax-deductible gift makes it possible.
00:42:12.000I mean, I guess you could find the funders for those events.
00:42:16.000Like at my talk, the signs had a, it was called thepeoplesproject.org, I think, at the bottom.
00:42:22.000So they were responsible for that group being there.
00:45:03.000He must have had it rough in kindergarten, speaking of kindergarten.
00:45:06.000When your name rhymes with shit, first grade is a nightmare.
00:45:10.000The only people who have it worse are people with the last name Gaylord.
00:45:14.000By the way, when we were at that park on the weekend in the Bronx, one of the artists' name, and he was a very talented painter, they had these watercolors of flowers that were photorealistic.
00:51:27.000So you know what happens when the Pac-Men are black people and you decided to call the police on two black people that stole, that allegedly took something from the store because you're willing to uphold the policy and they could have lost their lives.
00:52:18.000No one's going to tell you my name when you're sitting here videotaping it so that you can try and elicit some sort of violence against me.
00:52:44.000So he's getting shit for not protecting black criminals.
00:52:50.000Speaking of protecting black criminals, the media protects black criminals.
00:52:53.000And we don't hear about horrific crimes like this Black Lives Matter activist wearing a Justice for Breonna Taylor shirt who walked into a Louisville bar and murdered three people.
00:53:27.000White male executed in front of his four-month pregnant wife by black male on killing spree.
00:53:32.000Now, I can't seem to find pictures of the other victims, but I believe that all the other victims were white.
00:53:39.000He went on a racist tirade murdering white people, and you have to go to far-right blogs like UNS to hear the story.
00:53:55.000We were driving Sunday to church in their Ford Mustang when they were kidnapped by 29-year-old DanglarDorse on the side of Fort Law.
00:54:01.000He initially ran into their vehicle, prompting them to pull over under the impression it was a fender bender.
00:54:06.000He then kidnapped them at gunpoint, forced them to drive into their home in Marison, where he stole two of their guns, swapped vehicles, and took off again with the couple.
00:54:14.000At some point, Dorsey fatally shot Stevens and forced his body out of the vehicle along I-24.
00:54:19.000The moral of the story is when you kidnapped by a black thug, don't try to appease him and go home and get the card and then talk to him and say, please, you got to go out fighting.
00:55:30.000It's kind of crazy being in the belly of the beast here with my Trump gear and my Make America Great vest on my dog, you know, and all the dirty looks.
00:55:38.000Everybody loves the dog until they read the vest, you know.
00:55:42.000But, you know, everybody just wants to be hurt.
00:56:30.000Local Omaha radio host tells me that the smears that Gardner was racist started long before the shooting because he would hold Republican events at his bar.
00:57:09.000A lot of people think this is a Black Lives Matter rally, but this is very specific, targeted, organized towards getting justice for James.
00:57:19.000The holiday saw the evidence, clearly self-defense, dropped it.
00:59:27.000The founder of Black Lives Matter, Alicia Garza, partnered with a pro-Chinese Communist Party group to fund its lobbying operations in the United States.
00:59:37.000Seeks to engage advocacy organization legislators to advance.
00:59:40.000Well, solicits donations on his website.
00:59:45.000They're sent to a group called the Chinese Progressive Association.
00:59:48.000Black Futures Lab is a fiscally sponsored project of the Chinese Progressive Association.
01:02:15.000The girl with the bob was bitching when RBG dying, and the girl with the turtleneck was saying, yes, I hate Biden too, but we have a fascist in the White House.
01:02:28.000But yeah, as you can see in 3.5, they're going to burn it down if they try to replace RBG.
01:02:35.000I got to be honest, folks, when I see this kind of passion about Ruth Bader Ginsburg, I think, who, like, why do they care so much about the Supreme Court?
01:03:13.000You get to kill babies because you were partying too hard.
01:03:16.000It really, I honestly believe this, and this is just my opinion, but a big part of the passion you see for abortion is nothing to do with feminism and has to do with drunk sluts who want to live life without consequences.
01:03:30.000It's sort of like when they said in the MTA we're going to have more cops and they said oink oink you monster because they realized that that turnstile jumpers tend to be pro tend to be black.
01:05:28.000So when you tell them, hey, Trump is going to make it such that women have back alley abortions and die in droves, they go, I don't like that.
01:07:35.000We're really learning how talentless these celebrities are when they don't have an audience kissing their ass and feverishly clapping every time they open their mouths.
01:07:45.000He is, this is so awkward, and I don't get this joke.
01:07:49.000So Jimmy Kimmel comes out and a Russian has killed the mailman, and now a Russian operative is bringing him the mail, right?
01:07:57.000But does that joke not mean that we can't do mail-ins because the Russians will hijack the election?
01:08:09.000We have a lot of awards to give out, and I intend to give them out as soon as I get the next batch of envelopes, which we're definitely supposed to be here by now.
01:13:50.000It had the lowest ratings it's ever had.
01:13:52.000And it's because, and they're doing this.
01:13:54.000I know none of us care about the Emmys, of course.
01:13:57.000But it's relevant because awards shows are all about being politically correct and appeasing gays and blacks and trans and blah, blah, blah.
01:14:10.000And they just pour all the awards on random dudes like Shit's Creek, jump to 4-2.
01:14:19.000This guy, that's Eugene Levy's gay son, Dan, who we talked about on the show before.
01:14:24.000He's got a really gay accent, which to me would really bum me out with one of my boys because like, what if your son had a Lebanese accent?
01:14:34.000He's like, hello, Dad, what are you doing?
01:14:36.000We're going all over the place to have happy times.
01:14:38.000And you're like, why don't we sound the same?
01:18:21.000At 24, Zendaya is the youngest ever to win for lead actress in a drama for the gritty coming-of-age show, which I'm sure you're all very familiar with.
01:20:03.000But I looked up this guy because that went viral because no one realized that they stand outside with your award just in case you win.
01:20:09.000But doesn't this guy look exactly like a woman who spent like nine hours in a makeup chair trying to look like a man for some, like it's a what would you do sketch where a woman gets to see what it's like to be uneven eyebrows,
01:22:20.000Isn't it weird that we have a guy who's a serial sexual assaulter who gets to be on national television and make Jimmy Kimmel dance like a little dog?
01:25:37.000In the last GOML episode, laugh at them.
01:25:40.000You do an impression of Gibbie Haynes singing, I'm Flying, I'm Flying, from the song Who Was in My Room Last Night at the 3834 mark of the episode.
01:25:46.000It was eerily similar to Scratchy's voice from The Simpsons.
01:25:49.000Here's a 30-second clip that features Scratchy's voice.
01:28:18.000When Beyonce was thrusting her hips forward in a very suggestive manner, if someone else would have done that, it would have been a national scandal.
01:29:56.000And Gavin, right, I'm sure you guys have heard of the Jake Gardner, James Skurlock situation in Omaha.
01:30:00.000That's what we were just talking about with the guy who was racist to death.
01:30:05.000Recent developments that ended in Gardner's suicide.
01:30:07.000I graduated from high school around the Omaha area.
01:30:09.000So this particular clear-cut self-defense turned BLM propaganda hit real close to home.
01:30:14.000So when I saw, by the way, if you're saying that, right, folks at home?
01:30:17.000So this particular clear-cut self-defense turned BLM propaganda, what you do with that is when you're giving something a big long title, you put dashes in between the words.
01:30:27.000So we know this is a giant title of a thing.
01:30:30.000K through 12, can you stop teaching our kids that America is racist and teach them some fucking grammar, please?
01:30:39.000So when I saw a Facebook post happily cheering on the man's tragic suicide, I couldn't help but comment.
01:30:43.000After some back and forth, she eventually blocks me and makes a post calling me a white supremacist murder apologist while simultaneously advocating for this guy's suicide and for violence against hate speech.
01:30:54.000This ended up costing me a drumming gig with the alternative metal band Archers.
01:31:00.000But naturally getting fired at getting in trouble isn't an issue with me.
01:31:03.000I attached a picture of the post for your viewing pleasure.
01:32:09.000Someone who showed slurs at a protest waving a gun around, involved in white supremacy, deserves to get their head slammed against the concrete.
01:32:16.000And Jake didn't deserve a get-out-jail-free suicide.
01:35:12.000You know, we should be able to do something else and move forward.
01:35:15.000Her group doesn't usually follow up with the people they've exposed, including Jenny Cleland and Brandy Potter, who were fired from their jobs.
01:38:17.000House of Goyd says they do promote race mixing LOL 100% useless.
01:38:23.000And then a guy named Peckerwood with White Pride Worldwide as his avatar says Proud Boys, Gabby Kennis are race trading, fag-loving, heb lovers.
