00:02:14.000And now, we were just talking about it before, like there's all these articles now about how doctors are saying that the people that come into them are less sick than they ever were before.
00:07:03.000But it could be people who are scared of people dying on their watch.
00:07:06.000Because now it's not the economy that gets re-elected, it's people dying on your watch.
00:07:10.000Well, if someone comes along and says the reason why X amount of people died, it could have been much less if you had just done the right thing and kept those people safe and kept everything closed for another month.
00:07:24.000It's also, a lot of these people are not healthy people.
00:07:27.000I know a lot of really intelligent people that are not healthy, and they're terrified of this virus.
00:07:31.000And I would try to tell them, well, hey, let's look at the actual statistics.
00:07:35.000The actual statistics are, it doesn't seem like it's fun to catch, but as long as you have a good level of nutrients in your body, you have an adequate...
00:07:45.000Sufficient levels of vitamin D, zinc, you take care of yourself, get in the sauna, drink a lot of water, don't get fucked up every night, don't eat sugar all day.
00:07:54.000Like, you're probably gonna be okay, and maybe what's devastating, even more so, is how many suicides we had.
00:08:02.000How many people died because of the depression.
00:08:05.000Yo, did you hear that stat that, like, corona actually saved lives?
00:08:09.000Because people weren't driving, so they didn't get in car accidents.
00:11:41.000The guys that I know that are the most depressed right now are single that have been by themselves for two fucking months locked in their apartment.
00:11:47.000You don't think they're having people come up?
00:11:51.000Oh, they, but then they were, you know, they were not, I wasn't about to say losers.
00:12:49.000His ex-girlfriend accused him of sexual assault and this is her definition of sexual assault.
00:12:53.000She said yes to him because he had told her that if in the past that he had been in a relationship in the past where the girl didn't want sex as much as him and he didn't like it.
00:19:08.000She could kill him while he's like feeding cleft palate kids, and I would take the kid, I'd put them in another room, obviously I wouldn't kill the kid, I'd clean up the guy's dead body, and then we would do whatever we had to do.
00:19:19.000But would you trust her if you were fucking her with a lot of objects around?
00:19:21.000I would want it to be in like a basketball court.
00:20:40.000I would assume that, like all other things, men and women are very different, so I think the horny part's very different, too.
00:20:46.000But when men are horny, it gets desperate.
00:20:49.000It gets weird, like drug addict-y desperate.
00:20:52.000Yeah, I think I've always wondered that with like women like if because we always chalk it up to ourselves like if we get laid right it's like I kick great game like that was me like I took that down or whatever you know and I wonder if a lot of it is like their emotional state in the day like like Let's say their cat went missing or something like if that they're like,
00:21:14.000oh fuck I'm really down I'm gonna go hook up with this guy because that's gonna elevate my emotional state.
00:21:21.000I think for some girls I think some girls just want an escape and they'll just go have a you know Just a fling right but see a thing with girls have to worry about men In a dangerous way where men don't really have to worry about girls the same way Yeah,
00:22:15.000So there were these PR companies that were attached to Fyre Fest that promoted this shit everywhere and all of a sudden they're like absolved of any guilt because it's just this guy, Billy, who did everything and whatever.
00:22:25.000But what was interesting about the girls was you just got to hear their stories.
00:22:29.000I never heard of any of these girls, right?
00:22:31.000And after watching the stories and how they complained to the FBI, they complained to all these different places and nobody ever listened to them, I go, oh shit, this is why the Me Too movement existed.
00:22:42.000Because as a dude that came into the Me Too movement, never being a douchebag to girls, I never fucking mistreated women at all.
00:23:10.000All of a sudden, the voices are heard, right?
00:23:13.000I'm sure those weren't the only girls who talked to their boss or talked to HR about their boss being inappropriate and were told to shut the fuck up.
00:23:19.000So the second they're listened to, the floodgates are open.
00:23:32.000And if I look at it through that perspective, even in the time, I go, yes, this is wrong.
00:23:37.000And saying things like, you know, absolutes, like believe all women, that kind of stuff is wrong and probably wouldn't even be supported by them.
00:23:44.000But I get the feeling where it's like, if nobody's gonna listen to you and now you got a microphone, yeah, you're gonna scream into that shit.
00:23:50.000I don't even think it's the rational ones that are saying it that are saying believe all women I think it's a lot of a lot of that shit is crazy people Like yeah, just that slogan is not something you could say.
00:24:01.000You can't say believe all men You can't say you can't say that because then you're giving people the license to bullshit you Yeah, because you're not treating there's like if someone tells you a story and in this story whether you know, whoever it is It's your boss.
00:24:15.000Yeah, you're the victim of your boss If you don't know the boss's version of it, you don't really know the truth.
00:24:22.000It might very well be they're telling you the 100% truth, or they might be a fucking crazy person who blames everybody for everything that ever happened in their life, and they might be a pathological liar.
00:24:33.000There's a lot of people that are just liars.
00:24:35.000There's a lot of people that are manipulators.
00:24:36.000They make up stories to make other people look bad.
00:24:39.000But the nature of man Is that men are disgusting and when men are in control, like if a guy is the head of a fucking movie studio, and he can get all these dime pieces to suck on his dick to get a movie roll, they've been doing that since the beginning of time.
00:24:55.000And the problem is, not just that the man wants to do that to all the actresses, there's another problem that some of the actresses We're good to go.
00:25:19.000Dude, if you're benefiting from the system, why would you reject it?
00:25:23.000Now, I'm not making a statement about Margot Robbie, right?
00:25:26.000I don't know what she's done in her life, and she probably earned every single one of her roles perfectly.
00:26:22.000I don't know either, but you look at the correlation, you see like, okay, maybe there was a time where this type of behavior was like how you kind of work the system to get ahead.
00:27:19.000Like if you're conservative and you want these conservative points said, you have to get them said by people that the right can't criticize them for.
00:27:46.000Like Milo is the first one of these guys.
00:27:48.000Yeah, but these two people that you're using an example are both examples of people that have been attacked by the left.
00:27:55.000But they're not attacked for their identity and not immediately discredited for their identity.
00:27:59.000They have to be discredited for the words, whereas you would be immediate identity wiping away.
00:28:04.000But what's genius is the left does it as well.
00:28:07.000And this fucking hit me because I'd be looking at Greta Thunberg and I'm like, why the fuck are we listening to a fucking kid about anything?
00:28:28.000They're making kids make all the points because you can't tell kids to shut the fuck up or you're an asshole.
00:28:34.000If you're the adult telling a little girl to shut the fuck up, you don't know anything about the polar ice caps, you're an asshole.
00:28:41.000So if you just get kids to make all your points for you, the right just got to go, well, it's good that kids are involved in the political process.
00:28:48.000Well, my favorite thing about Greta is they started off with climate change.
00:28:52.000She was talking about her future and how dare you.
00:30:44.000Greta, if there's a TikTok dance that I need to learn, I guarantee your autistic concentration is going to make it perfect and you're going to get down those steps.
00:30:54.000I don't need to know about fucking science from you.
00:30:57.000I don't even need to know about science from most journalists.
00:31:00.000I just need scientists to tell me and then I'm gonna actually ask questions because that's what fucking science is.
00:31:07.000When did science stop being about asking questions?
00:31:09.000Like if you ask any real scientist, they'd be like, yeah, well the whole point is we just poke holes in our theories and we just do that constantly and that's actually good science.
00:32:18.000I can make food in my living room if I want.
00:32:20.000But the point about it is if you in any way dispute the models of what they're saying and have an alternative perspective, that alternative perspective is never engaged.
00:32:30.000That alternative perspective is demonized.
00:32:32.000That perspective is you're a climate change denier and you're a bad person.
00:32:37.000And some of them just have data that they're going on.
00:33:13.000Obviously, he likes to be warmer, and I'm sure that's just a surface-level argument.
00:33:16.000That being said, I don't know if the conversation should be stop global warming at any cost.
00:33:24.000Maybe it's a better conversation to have is like, hey, we should do what we can to stop global warming, but we can't kill the economy because then we kill people anyway.
00:33:44.000That's why the pandemic thing worried me, the shutdown, because it's not that easy to restart everything.
00:33:50.000And there's a lot of things that won't be there when you restart it, including they think something like 40% of small businesses might go under.
00:34:34.000One of Swartzen's buddies, the sheriff, was telling him that they used to have one a week, and now they were having five a day.
00:34:43.000Somewhere in LA. Like, what the fuck, man?
00:34:46.000So that's something that people need to take into consideration.
00:34:48.000You need to take into consideration how many people are going to become drug addicts.
00:34:51.000How many people who are going to be severely depressed and it might forever alter the course of their trajectory in life.
00:34:57.000They might have been on an upward trend and all of a sudden, boom, their business gets taken away from them and then they get desperate and then they get sad and then they get on antidepressants and then they zombie out and then they never go anywhere.
00:35:07.000Where they were on their way to having a fulfilled life.
00:35:10.000How many people broke up with their fucking loved ones because they had to be with them all day, 24 hours a day, and they were just sick of them?
00:35:16.000Maybe they would have worked out great if they just went along at a natural trajectory.
00:37:02.000Yeah, if a guy was putting a pressure on, like if a guy was really like rubbing your shoulders, like guys do the chicks at work, like laying the meat on your back a bit.
00:37:12.000I knew a casting agent that was a female that was kind of gross and she would fuck dudes and get them rolls.
00:43:12.000And what if art, this is, and I'm not one of these fucking, like, hippie art guys, but, like, what if art had, like, healing quality?
00:43:19.000You know, like, some people, like, songs can lift their mood, and, like, movies and stuff like that, like, can, like, ease pain, and, like, ease trauma that they went through, you know?
00:45:34.000Because someone can talk you into being a Mormon.
00:45:37.000They can definitely talk you into sucking their dick.
00:45:40.000They just need a more alone time with you.
00:45:42.000You really believe a 14 year old boy found golden tablets that contain the lost work of Jesus, but only he could read it because he had a magic rock?
00:45:51.000Like someone, if some guy can get you to suck his dick.
00:45:54.000He's just got to be around you long enough and tell you that the prophets told him to tell you that there's wisdom in his dick and that you have to do something that seems horrible to get the glory of God.
00:46:58.000Yeah, you become trained to believe and not be skeptical so that anything that makes you feel good and included You feel like, oh, it's true.
00:47:25.000We were talking about earlier about people and their art and people being cancelled and their art gets cancelled.
00:47:32.000Whether or not they do that with scientists, there's actually a great example of that.
00:47:36.000There's a guy named Fritz Haber invented the Haber method of extracting nitrogen from the air that's responsible for a giant percentage of the fertilizing.
00:47:51.000Like, when you eat food, I think they say that 50% of the nitrogen in most people's bodies actually comes from the Haber Method.
00:47:59.000He figured this out in like, I guess it was World War I or World War II. And then, one, World War I. He figured this out, and then, right afterwards, he figured out how to make Zyklon gas.
00:48:13.000So he made Zyklon A gas, which was a gas that was a pesticide, and they used Zyklon A gas for crops to kill off bugs, and it stunk to high hell.
00:48:50.000And so he was, at the same time, Getting the Nobel Prize for the Haber method of extracting nitrogen from the atmosphere, and then on top of that, wanted for crimes against humanity.
00:49:59.000Because it sort of embodies this situation where you've got a guy who did this incredible thing that helped so many people, but also did this horrible thing that killed so many people.
00:55:40.000Like, you know, like you're at the club and like the girl's like beautiful and then like you guys go for like a skinny dip and then you're just like, whoa, dude.
00:57:29.000But then you're giving up your power to, whether it's Black Lives Matter or whatever, you're giving up your ability to just have a show It really should be that you want to give money to valid organizations, right?
00:57:46.000But the idea that you could get away with it, we have like a three-month exemption window where you could have full crowds.
00:57:56.000Until they lift it, you could only have full crowds if you give 5% to fill in whatever the blank, whether it's Black Lives Matter, whatever people decide.
00:58:05.000Isn't this how they treat rich people anyway?
00:58:08.000Hey, rich people, you've got to pay taxes.
00:58:09.000Unless, of course, you'd like to donate to a charity, and then you don't have to pay that in taxes.
00:58:29.000They become a big corporation, and then they shame people for not paying, and then it becomes a thing like, if you don't pay, you don't care.
01:01:51.000I did it, you know, I was like super, you know, put the lotion on the hands and cover everything up for like maybe a couple weeks and then I was like, nah, this is not going to happen.
01:02:26.000But, in the interest of telling the whole story, if anybody ever heard this already, I'm sorry.
01:02:32.000But Michael Yeo flew all the way to New York, no sleep, does fucking press, does radio, did two shows, did two shows the next day, flies back home, no rest.
01:02:42.000Gets in the car, drives to Vegas to see his wife's family, hangs out there for a little bit, drives home same night.
01:02:53.000So you got no sleep, worn out, a lot of travel, stress, stress, stress, and then audition stress, and then boom, it hits him.
01:03:00.000And it hit him, and it hit him pretty bad, and then he got on Advil, and he said that once he started taking Advil, it fucking spiked, and he got real bad, wound up being hospitalized.
01:04:24.000One of the things they were saying is with kids, they were like, my kids, they were like, you know, we don't know if they're ever going to be able to go back to school again.
01:04:31.000Might have to do remote schooling and all this different.
01:04:33.000I'm like, kids aren't even getting sick.
01:05:27.000But I don't know if that's more or less than the real number because they're wondering, are people dying of COVID that they're not counting?
01:05:36.000Are people dying of other things and they're counting it as COVID? There's a lot of dispute as to what the real number is.
01:07:54.000And if I did explain to anybody why I was going to build a studio prior to all this, they'd be like, you are the stupidest guy with money I've ever heard in my entire life.
01:08:03.000No, they didn't say it, but if I explained how much money I spent on the studio and I had zero way of making the money back, because I know this is bad investment strategy, but I never go, oh, if I put this in now, 10 years is later.
01:08:14.000All I go is, I really want to do this, and if I love this enough, I'll find a way to make money on it, right?
01:08:38.000It works because you're chasing what you really enjoy.
01:08:40.000You know that if you build a studio, you'll get to do some of the clips, like these things that you're putting up on Instagram, and it's what you really enjoy.
01:08:53.000And it was like, you know in the superhero movies where the supervillain loses their powers and then has to fight the hero on an even playing ground?
01:09:03.000And it's like, oh this is what we're doing now?
01:10:09.000Yeah, it has to be a television show which has advertising, so it has to be, even though he's on the internet now essentially, I mean he's doing it from his home from a webcam, you still have to do it under the same FCC restrictions.
01:10:47.000I really believe and I think it's a similar effect to what happened with you guys which was We just said the truth Obviously in a funny way.
01:10:57.000It's five minutes jam-packed a fucking laser beam Someone who needed some bars this week someone who needed to be told that they're fucking idiots, right?
01:11:06.000But we said The truth doesn't have a party And if we just find truth, and I'm not talking about statistics or any of that kind of shit, I'm literally talking about gut feeling.
01:11:23.000So it's like, and I'm just sitting here, I'm going, is nobody fucking talking about this?
01:11:27.000Like, I'll message some guys that work for CNN, I won't say their names, but I'll just DM, I'll be like, bro, I appreciate your support, you're great, you're sweet.
01:11:54.000You and I will be out there, we'll be fucking playing pool, and we'll be thinking about these institutions that we want to give justice to in a weird way.
01:12:35.000But it works, and the coolest thing is seeing these people on the left and the right Watch this clip, both find it funny, and both agree, and you realize 99% of us are not left or right.
01:12:47.000There's one fucking issue that takes us over.
01:12:49.000We're literally in the middle, watching these idiots on either side of the extreme say stupid shit we don't give a fuck about.
01:13:03.000War, the economy, there's a few things.
01:13:07.000But the thing about the Biden thing that made it so maddening is it's not like he's the only one.
01:13:11.000It's not like they didn't have a lot of other candidates.
01:13:13.000It's not like there wasn't a lot of other people they could have put in office that people would have voted for over Trump, including Bernie.
01:13:19.000Right now, Bernie was running right now?
01:13:22.000If Bernie was still in the heat right now, he could have won.
01:13:25.000You know the term a lot of people are saying, like, don't talk about the good cops, because if they were good, they would have called out the bullshit.
01:15:46.000Trump is an example of someone who was good enough to beat the party that didn't want him to be there, right?
01:15:51.000Like, nobody in the Republican Party wanted Trump to win, right?
01:15:54.000But then they all eventually got behind it because you tore the company line, whatever.
01:15:58.000He wasn't good enough, and also the Democrats have systems that don't allow that shit, you know, these superdelegates and all this bullshit, right?
01:21:17.000Like, if I moved to England and I lived in London and just trashed Northern England on a TV show, I would never feel comfortable doing that.
01:21:26.000I'd be like, I don't know enough about y'all.
01:21:27.000And like, that's weird for me to just do this for a living, guys.
01:22:31.000Whatever it is, watch late night TV. When someone's trying to sell you a fucked up mop that you don't really need, they're doing it through an English accent.
01:24:16.000But they're saddled down by the fact that they're on HBO. Like, if you're in that liberal establishment and you're in that, like, there's weird conversations that are had where people aren't looking at the jokes that are about the left.
01:24:30.000They're not going to make fun of Hillary.
01:24:32.000They're not going to make fun of Joe Biden.
01:24:34.000They're not going to make fun of Nancy Pelosi or any other prominent liberal.
01:24:38.000They're just not going to do it, even if the joke is there.
01:24:43.000Which weird is when you see it in the news, right?
01:24:45.000Like, the difference between the way they covered women that had allegations against Trump versus women that have had allegations versus Joe Biden.
01:25:00.000Yeah, there is that obvious bias, I guess.
01:25:03.000Maybe it's because, like, I was looking at, like, news organizations, I think, like, back in the day, everybody knew that they were biased.
01:25:09.000Like you just knew, yeah, like late 1700s to like early 1800s.
01:25:15.000I think they even like enacted a law that said you couldn't criticize the president or his views or something like that in the press.
01:26:07.000And I'm surprised these corporations don't get it when you see platforms like this, which literally let people speak, and they have different opinions and different points of view.
01:26:18.000And you see the entire world gravitate towards it because we're addicted to truth.
01:27:22.000And they found fossilized bones in China in the 1920s.
01:27:27.000There was an anthropologist that visited this apothecary shop and he found these bones that were primate bones, much larger than any primate bone he'd ever seen before.
01:27:36.000And so they said, where'd you get this?
01:27:37.000And they took him to the site and they started digging up bones.
01:27:41.000And so they know it was a real animal.
01:27:43.000They think it was very orangutan-like, but it was huge.
01:29:11.000It's the most ruthless shit because there's a video of this chimp eating a monkey while it's alive.
01:29:15.000It's holding on to the monkey and biting its hips and just pulling chunks of meat while the monkey's screaming like, like his little primate face screaming while this monkey's just eating them alive.
01:29:28.000I thought that they do like ants on a stick or something like that.
01:30:12.000So, this is really dark shit, man, because they chase these monkeys, and the monkeys get scared, and they're trying to figure it out, and they're trying to run away.
01:30:21.000But the chimps are bigger and stronger, and they corral them in.
01:30:25.000And so once they get them, man, they're tearing them apart.
01:30:31.000See, now the monkey's trying to get away, and this is the footage of the monkey trying to escape, and the chimp comes chasing after him and grabs him.
01:30:40.000And now once he grabs him, it's rough, bro.
01:31:16.000We'd have to get Jamie the right video in advance because there's probably hundreds of them out there, but there's one that came from that show that's really rough to watch because this monkey is alive and awake.
01:31:28.000All this chimp is just biting him and pulling him apart.
01:34:36.000In the same way with the pyramids, like, I remember watching them, and I'm like, okay, this question's reality, like, things are different now.
01:34:42.000And I remember reading or watching the videos, and one guy said, like, time isn't, or, like, human progression isn't linear, and that was the coolest argument I've heard for it.
01:34:52.000The idea that, like, a society could pop up, be somewhat insulated, so they had tons of time and, like, wealth, and I guess wealth would be in resources back then, develop technology, die out, That technology never goes to anybody else.
01:35:37.000He was like, that specific spot is that there's an impenetrable forest on one side and there's a desert on the other side and there's a river that when it overflows, just fruit and vegetables just start sprouting out of the ground.
01:35:49.000It's like, oh, this is how you would be able to have the wealth and time to develop cool shit.
01:35:54.000Like, of course, we're developing cool shit in America because...
01:35:58.000We're not busy fighting motherfuckers in our country all the time.
01:36:01.000Like, yeah, Elon can develop all these cool things, drill a hole in the ground.
01:38:47.000That's the problem with banning a word like retard.
01:38:50.000Like, sometimes it's not nice to say it about someone with a disease, but it's not nice to let someone keep making YouTube videos about the world being flat either without saying to them, hey man, That's fucking retarded.
01:39:16.000Because people watch those videos, and no one's interrupting you while you're making those videos, so it can make sense.
01:39:21.000If you articulate and smooth and use a lot of big words and show a lot of faulty signs, People can go, oh my god, I can't believe all these years I've been lying to.
01:40:20.000Most of the people, some people that just love conspiracy theories, but most of the people that get really attached to some of the really dumb ones, they're not doing so well in life.
01:42:03.000I don't know what happened, but someone sent me something.
01:42:06.000I started going in on it, and then I remember I came across something that was like, yeah, and that's why him and his wife, Rita Wilson, have coronavirus or something.
01:42:15.000I was like, and I remember going to you, and I was like, is his wife's last name really Wilson?
01:44:07.000I mean, we were talking earlier about George Soros videos and all these people that think that someone's pulling the strings from behind the scenes.
01:44:16.000You know, the more I see crazy shit like the Jeffrey Epstein thing, where, I mean, again, I didn't watch much of the documentary because it was bumming me out.
01:47:33.000Why would you include this guy in front and center of the picture, but this guy over here, Epstein, this whole thing, he's the criminal mastermind, he's doing all this kind of stuff, is all by himself.
01:48:03.000And in the movie, this guy would set up these freak parties on these islands and have all these guys fly in, scientists, celebrities, and bang 15-year-olds.
01:51:46.000Meanwhile, that Michael Baden guy, the autopsy doctor from HBO, that autopsy series, this is a guy who's worked on a bunch of high profile cases.
01:52:53.000I think if I had to guess, the most nefarious version of it, I doubt, is people sitting around going, hey, do you want to bang underage girls?
01:53:00.000I think they'd probably say, hey, we're going to have this party.
01:56:17.000You don't think it's coincidental that maybe Clinton had some fucked up shit that happened in Arkansas and they were like, alright, we're going to get you out of that, but you're going to keep on.
01:56:26.000You're going to have an interesting political career.
01:57:15.000So when they did the autopsy on the kids and they said, oh, the kids died of suicide, they got high and they slept on the train tracks, the parents are like, that's not our kids.
01:58:31.000Well, you gotta think a guy like any prominent big-time politician, they know so much shit about so many people and so many different things that are wrong.
01:58:38.000So many different things that are illegal.
01:59:08.000I don't know whether he was just a freak or whether this is how he's always been and this is his kink, but he likes sexting with underage girls.
02:01:22.000But maybe that was a picture he sent to his wife, and they're like, nah, we're going to send that to a 15-year-old because now we got your laptop, we could do whatever.
02:01:27.000And then we got some worse shit on you, and you're going to take this little charge right here before we tell you what we're really up to.
02:01:32.000He was very bombastic and very argumentative in the Senate.
02:01:37.000And he would yell and scream, and the senator is out of order!
02:02:03.000Maybe he's an example Of that culture.
02:02:06.000Yeah, it's not like politics makes you do that.
02:02:10.000It's politics has something that is enticing to those type of people, which is obviously power.
02:02:16.000It's like the Catholic Church doesn't make you touch kids, but if you did want to touch kids and you want some smokescreen, okay, here's a perfect situation.
02:02:28.000I don't think Catholicism makes you do that.
02:02:32.000But if you did want to do it, that would be the perfect place to go.
02:02:36.000I think one of the ways that Catholicism does do that is you go there when you're young and you get molested and then you think that that's normal.
02:02:47.000That is one thing that does happen to people that get molested.
02:02:50.000There's not just a high rate of them molesting, there's a high recidivism rate, but there's a very high rate of them molesting people as well.
02:03:02.000Vampire when you do that to some kids It's like you put it in them and then they go out and perpetrate the same evil that was done to them That's a good way of putting it It is like that in a way because you hear all these stories about guys who molest kids who were molested.
02:03:19.000Yeah I think there's a sickness when someone wants to fuck a 15-year-old.
02:03:26.000Even if you want to text them and pretend you want to fuck a 15-year-old.
02:05:36.000He was the guy that supposedly, according to WikiLeaks, he gave them the information on the DNC being corrupt and rigging the vote with Hillary Clinton when they conspired against Bernie Sanders.
02:05:50.000That's when Donna Brazile wrote about it in her book.
02:05:52.000When Seth Rich was murdered, she got really scared.
02:06:40.000The banking institutions and how they've been controlling every policy decision back into the 1700s and then before that in Europe, and how these few banking families have all kind of worked together.
02:06:52.000And then anybody who criticizes the banks and tries to break up the banks, they're remembered poorly in history.
02:08:11.000And then he goes, you know why our money's green?
02:08:13.000Because in the Civil War, he went to the banks and asked for a loan for the Civil War, and they were like, it's going to be 20-25% interest on the loan.
02:08:19.000He was like, nah, fucking, I'm printing my own shit, greenbacks.
02:08:54.000John Wilkes Booth's brother was also a famous actor in New York, and I think it was the week before Lincoln was killed, he saved his son from getting hit by a car, randomly, as though that's a random occurrence.
02:09:08.000And this is back in the day, there was barely any cars.
02:09:33.000But he was really passionate about it, and he's really passionate about breaking the bank and not having ourselves be tied to these banking institutions that dictate monetary policy.
02:09:43.000Well, wasn't that a part of Kennedy as well?
02:10:23.000Listen, he was a prisoner who they gave acid to, and they trained him how to do that to other people.
02:10:29.000So he took these impressionable youths and dosed them up with acid, and then he would pretend he was taking it, and he would guide them and tell them what to do, and then he had them go out and murder people.
02:10:38.000And every time he got arrested, they let him out of jail.
02:10:40.000There's a guy named Tom O'Neill who started his book.
02:10:42.000He started his book as a story that he was writing for Premier Magazine, but as he dug deeper and deeper into the case, he was like, what the fuck?
02:11:19.000It's like, my girl said something interesting to me, you know, because there's all these serial killer documentaries on Netflix and that kind of stuff, right?
02:11:27.000And I'm like, are there serial killers in other places?
02:11:48.000She goes, well, they're doing all these drugs in the 60s and 70s, and all of a sudden, in the 80s, they just start, like, tearing through women, and they're just, all these serial killers pop up out of nowhere.
02:12:49.000MKUltro was the mind control experiment.
02:12:51.000But a part of MKUltro was Operation Midnight Climax.
02:12:55.000And they did this in San Francisco as well.
02:12:57.000The same people that were involved in that clinic were also involved and they would make these brothels and then they would hire these ladies to come in and have sex with these guys and they would dose the guys up with acid.
02:13:10.000So these guys would go in thinking they're gonna just get some sex.
02:13:42.000Our families, our kids, everything is dependent on us developing the coolest, well I don't want to use the term cool, but most effective weapons of manipulation to maintain our status in the world.
02:13:56.000And because of that we get to live the lives that we get to live.
02:13:59.000And if we don't do it, there are other countries that are doing the exact same thing, and the second we slip, they're gonna body us, right?
02:14:08.000Would you go so far as to do these types of things?
02:14:11.000The right answer is obviously no, but if you knew the exact same experiment was happening in China right now, and the second they figured it out, they were gonna find ways to manipulate the powers that be, and then the next trip a politician ends up in China, all of a sudden, they get doused with some shit, now they're controlled, I don't know exactly how it works.
02:14:27.000You know, this is the argument to accept some sort of a new world order.
02:14:30.000Or accept some sort of a totalitarian regime that controls the people the same way China controls the people because otherwise we can't compete with them.
02:14:48.000It's not like you have a business and then there's the government.
02:14:52.000No, your business is a part of the government.
02:14:54.000If you're running Huawei, you're hand in hand with the Chinese government.
02:14:58.000The only way the United States is going to compete is if we run things over here the way they run things over there because They can cut corners, take chances.
02:15:07.000They have mass surveillance on their people.
02:15:09.000That way it keeps things running smoother.
02:15:44.000Do you really think Google isn't sitting down with the U.S. government and the U.S. government isn't going, we're going to need access to all that?
02:15:52.000I mean, we'll pretend like you guys are operating by yourself, but y'all know what time it is.
02:15:58.000And Google's actually sat down with the Chinese government.
02:16:01.000And the argument of censoring over there was that if we don't, they're just going to steal our intellectual property and just remake Google in a Chinese form.
02:18:24.000And the second you get into the billions, you get a knock on the door where it's like, you got a lot.
02:18:31.000You got a lot of stuff and we're gonna need to have some conversations about how you use that stuff and the people you talk to and the deals that you do because you got too much power.
02:20:25.000So whether it's Bellator or 1FC or all these different companies, the more of those there are, the more World Series of Fighting, the more Professional Fighting League, whatever the fuck it's called now, the more those rise, the better it is for everyone.
02:22:23.000But, you know, when it comes to me as a human that likes fighting, I know how fucking dangerous that shit is.
02:22:30.000You should get paid an incredibly generous amount of money to step into a cage fight for millions of people to see.
02:22:36.000Yeah, it is interesting because you have this situation where the quality of the fights is undeniably better because it's not in the free market.
02:22:52.000You have people that are really good at picking out fights.
02:22:55.000And for the most part, I say this as a boxing fan, right?
02:22:58.000So I grew up in boxing where there are tons of different divisions, or tons of different companies, if you will.
02:23:09.000And then sometimes what happens is you have guys who are like really boring fighters, but they get a position where they have the belt and then it actually hurts the sport in a way.
02:23:17.000But they earned it and they deserve it.
02:23:19.000So as like a sportsman, I'm like, they deserve to have it.
02:23:22.000Like a lot of people, I love Floyd Mayweather.
02:23:24.000I think he's the best fighter in the history of fighting, right?
02:23:28.000I think he's actually one of the greatest people at their job ever.
02:23:31.000Like I think he's Michael Jordan of boxing.
02:23:34.000He's one of the, without a doubt, one of the greatest boxers, if not the greatest boxer that has ever lived.
02:24:14.000Do you think it's better to not be completely free market?
02:24:18.000Do you think it's better to have the fights for the quality of the sport?
02:24:22.000If you're a fan, it's certainly better for you if the fighters get...
02:24:30.000If they all get together in one organization, and then that organization makes them fight each other.
02:24:34.000That way there's not as many dream matchups you never get to see.
02:24:38.000Like one of the things that everybody got upset was by the time Floyd fought Manny Pacquiao, it was like past Manny's prime, and Manny had a bum shoulder, and all these different things.
02:24:47.000We would have liked to see that fight five years earlier.
02:24:49.000And in the UFC... That fight gets made.
02:25:15.000See, that's one of those situations where I don't know who's right or who's wrong because I don't know how much money they would make for that if there's no audience.
02:25:21.000Let's say that Francis Ngannou fights a big fight and it gets like 500,000 pay-per-views, 600,000, 700,000 pay-per-views.
02:27:19.000So they have this giant monthly nut they have to cover every month.
02:27:23.000And people, I guess, don't realize is an agency makes money off of the commission of their clients, and if their clients can't work because of corona, the agency has no revenue coming in.
02:28:34.000I think particularly now when you're hearing these reports of the cases diminishing, the viral load that they're finding in Italy is so small that it's barely detectable.
02:28:44.000The hope is that same shit happens here as it gets hot out.
02:29:45.000I think letting it burn through the city is comparatively higher.
02:29:48.000I think the question is, what would you rather have?
02:29:51.000Would you rather have the freedom to decide for yourself and know that there's some risks involved, or would you rather have the government lock everything down, save people's lives from now, but then the economy crashes?
02:30:04.000For every unemployment rate, There's some sort of a graph that they use or some sort of an equation, but for every percentage, the unemployment rate goes up.
02:30:17.000More people are unemployed, X amount of people die.
02:30:22.000And this is not taken into account at all.
02:30:25.000The deaths that we're looking at are only the deaths due to disease.
02:30:28.000Yeah, that's why you know it's been politicized because the politicians aren't going to be accountable for the deaths because of unemployment because they could blame it on the pandemic.
02:30:35.000But they will be responsible for the deaths from corona if they're opening up too early.
02:30:41.000Dude, they should have quarantined sick people and high-risk people.
02:30:45.000People that have illnesses, pre-existing conditions, old people, people that are vulnerable.
02:31:03.000Do you think if nobody ends up getting corona or the numbers don't spike that high will forever lose or at least for our lives lose faith in what our public health sector tells us we need to be concerned about?
02:31:16.000I think already people are losing faith.
02:31:18.000But especially after this right now, like this is...
02:31:23.000When they find out how many people actually got it versus how many people died versus what they thought, how many people were going to get it versus how many people...
02:36:22.000All that money they came with to bail out all these corporations from the coronavirus, the pandemic, why couldn't they have used that money already to bail out these inner cities?
02:36:31.000Why couldn't they have find the money to...
02:36:35.000They have all these cities that have this systemic crime and violence and racism that's been going on forever, forever, places like Baltimore.
02:36:43.000That are directly fucked up as a result of racist practices and selling houses.
02:36:49.000And they don't do anything to fix that.
02:36:51.000They never try to stop where the crime is coming from.
02:36:55.000They never try to make those cities better.
02:36:58.000They never try to add community centers and figure out a way to do something.
02:37:30.000We did this in the video, but it was really interesting because we had to like, I had to like really process how I felt about it because the looting obviously was wrong and we did that clip on it, but like The writing I understood, and I think I can justify—I was talking to this—I don't want to say his name because he's a college professor.
02:37:46.000I don't want to get him in trouble for talking to us and helping us out, you know, the distinguished gentlemen.
02:37:52.000But he was like— He's really savvy with constitutional law and stuff, and he said this argument that I thought was really interesting.
02:37:57.000When it comes to riots, not looting, destruction of property is wrong, and you're doing it to benefit yourself when you loot, right?
02:38:02.000You're taking advantage of the tragedy, right?
02:38:05.000The tragedy is a smokescreen, so that you can benefit, right?
02:38:08.000And we made an interesting distinction, like any Instagram model that's also taking a picture at the thing, but not really actually doing anything, it was like, you're looting too.
02:39:43.000Well, if it was all coordinated and thought that way, yes.
02:39:46.000And I think what happened in Minnesota, in particular what happened with the police precinct, where they burnt that fucking thing down the ground.
02:40:47.000I think Joe Schilling has that on his Instagram page.
02:40:51.000My friend Joe Schilling, who's a kickboxer, he's been saying for the last six, seven days, it's not one bad apple.
02:41:00.000He goes, look at all these fucking asshole cops that are doing shit.
02:41:03.000So he's putting video after video after video after video after video after video of cops grabbing a woman by the neck and throwing her to the ground, slamming her.
02:41:39.000So my friend Joe has video after video after video of this, and I think one of them, I don't know if he has that in there, but one of them is this dude gets pepper sprayed in the face, and then they fucking flashbang him.
02:42:08.000And it went from go in there and fuck shit up, that's how it is when you're trying to win a war, to win minds and hearts.
02:42:14.000And they explained to us while we were there, we're winning minds and hearts, and that means you guys are going to have to take on more risk.
02:42:21.000That means you don't just kick in the door and then light it up.
02:42:24.000You have to make sure that you're not taking out innocents.
02:42:31.000So he goes, when I see police brutality, I'm like, if we can afford that luxury to a country that we're at war with, how the fuck can we not afford that luxury to our own citizens?
02:42:41.000He goes, if I'm told to take on more risk, then maybe these cops have to take on more risk and pay them for it.
02:42:51.000Don't defund, but increase the requirements and really make them heroes.
02:42:56.000But he said this, he was like, it seemed to me that the culture...
02:43:01.000Of policing in America, and I could be wrong, we gotta talk to cops about it, but what he said, it seems to me, is that the idea is no cop ever gets left behind, no cop ever goes down, instead of protecting people at all costs.
02:43:21.000Well, I'm fully in agreement that they need better funding.
02:43:24.000It needs to be a higher paying job that's much more difficult to get.
02:43:27.000But when you see cops throw that old man to the ground, he bounces his fucking head off the ground, you see the blood come out of his head and no one does anything?
02:44:35.000So it's like, how do we shift this and how much risk do they have to take or what change do we make so that we can look at them and go, fuck.
02:44:41.000Thank God we got these guys around, because fuck it's scary sometimes.
02:44:43.000Listen to what you said about your friend being the Marines.
02:44:45.000It's fucking hard to get through boot camp, man.
02:44:59.000And they should weed out the people that are assholes, the people that are sociopaths, the people that would be willing to lean their shin on a man's neck for eight and a half minutes.
