Transcript

00:00:00.000 We got a lot of good news for you guys.
00:00:24.000 Get those black pills out of your mouths.
00:00:26.000 The first big story is that a judge has ruled in favor of Andy Ngo, and alleged Antifa members must pay him a combined $300,000 over damages in the Portland attack.
00:00:37.000 So we'll go through that.
00:00:38.000 That's a tremendous victory.
00:00:38.000 We also have An anti-Trump Democrat arsonist who set fire to a Trump sign twice has been identified, reported to the police, and according to Benny Johnson, his source says this man has admitted his crimes.
00:00:52.000 We put up a reward to catch this guy after a local man posted Nest video footage showing this anti-Trump bike bicyclist setting fire to a house where he knew he
00:01:02.000 could cause massive damage, potentially take lives. And now we caught the guy. So that's the really,
00:01:08.000 really good news. There's a lot more in the big news. You've got Donald Trump's bail
00:01:12.000 being set at two hundred thousand dollars. So we'll get into that in a bit. We're learning
00:01:16.000 more about Hunter Biden and allegations. And I think this is going to come out that Joe
00:01:22.000 Biden's DOJ intervened specifically explicitly to protect.
00:01:27.000 Joe Biden's administration is protecting Hunter Biden, to put it that way.
00:01:29.000 Apparently, there was instruction for this prosecutor not to go after Hunter, and the only way that's possible, many GOP members are alluding, is if Joe Biden himself intervened.
00:01:39.000 But we'll get into all that.
00:01:40.000 Before we get started, my friends, we have a bunch of announcements.
00:01:42.000 First, head over to CastBrew.com!
00:01:45.000 Buy our coffee to support the show.
00:01:47.000 We sponsor ourselves, ladies and gentlemen, and this is the best cup of coffee you'll ever have.
00:01:51.000 I guarantee it, and I can guarantee it because it's an opinion statement.
00:01:54.000 That doesn't mean a whole lot, but I really do like the coffee.
00:01:55.000 I think it's pretty good.
00:01:56.000 Rise with the Birdo Jr.
00:01:57.000 and Appalachian Nights are personally my favorite.
00:01:59.000 We got whole bean, we got ground, we have the Casbro Coffee Club, where you'll get three bags every month.
00:02:04.000 We also have K-Cups available, and I definitely recommend, people are cheering for our un-woke decaf, but more importantly, Sleepy Joe.
00:02:13.000 People seem to really, really like the Sleepy Joe decaf, mostly because they like the bag and the name of the coffee.
00:02:19.000 But shout out to the TimCast members for coming up with that one.
00:02:22.000 Also, head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member to support our work directly.

00:02:43.000 I also have a special announcement.
00:02:45.000 Probably due to a lack of proper judgment, I am announcing that I am committing $20,000 towards prizes at a local DIY skateboarding jam best trick contest.
00:02:57.000 This is the August 26th 12pm Martinsburg, West Virginia, 10th Cluckin' Year Anniversary Skate Park Jam, music, games, food, free parking, at the Raleigh Street Skate Spot with support from Embark Skate Shop.
00:03:12.000 I have not conveyed this to any of the people involved at all, nor have I done anything to organize anything related to this, but I figure Putting up $20,000 towards a local skate event in the area will probably help attract a lot of people to the area, will help local businesses with how many people may end up buying food, and I'm hoping that by offering $12,000 for a first place prize at a local DIY skate jam, a lot of skateboarders from all over will show up, and this will be one of the coolest events we've ever had.
00:03:44.000 So if you're a skateboarder, if you know any skateboarders, and you would like to have First place, $12,000.
00:03:51.000 Second place, $6,000.
00:03:52.000 And third place, $2,000.
00:03:54.000 And I'm just, I'm telling you, that's also, like, maybe the people running it also have prizes.
00:04:00.000 So, whatever they give, too.
00:04:02.000 Additionally, professional skateboarder Richie Jackson will be there to assist in judging, at least as far as it goes with our portion of any prizes.
00:04:10.000 And there will be a lot more prizes to give out, cash prizes, for a variety of different things we may end up doing.
00:04:15.000 It's gonna be totally random.
00:04:17.000 As I've tweeted, I have done nothing to organize this.
00:04:19.000 I have no idea how it'll even be possible, but it sounds like it's gonna be fun.
00:04:23.000 This is August 26, Martinsburg, West Virginia, and I hope you come and hang out.
00:04:29.000 Okay, smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends.
00:04:33.000 Joining us tonight to talk about this and a whole lot more is Lauren Brown.
00:04:37.000 Hi!
00:04:38.000 Thanks for having me here.
00:04:38.000 Who are you?
00:04:40.000 Well, I'm Lauren Brown.
00:04:42.000 I'm a woman of many names, though.
00:04:43.000 Oh, sorry.
00:04:46.000 A woman of many names, though.
00:04:46.000 I go by Elle on social media.
00:04:49.000 Before that, I went by SomeBeeIknow, to quote Rachel Maddow.
00:04:52.000 Starts with B, rhymes with Mitch.
00:04:54.000 You can fill in the blank there.
00:04:56.000 I gained a small platform on accident, really, in 2020, putting out reports on COVID numbers, and my platform grew really rapidly, and I just figured I would be kind of a jerk if I didn't try to figure out What to do with it.
00:05:10.000 So now I kind of work on big picture connectivity and timeline work and I have my own show.
00:05:17.000 It's called Big Dig Energy that I do three times a week on Rumble.
00:05:21.000 And that's just do stuff on the Internet, I guess.
00:05:24.000 Right on.
00:05:25.000 Thanks for hanging out.
00:05:25.000 It should be fun.
00:05:26.000 We also have Hannah Clare back hanging out.
00:05:28.000 Hey, I'm Hannah-Claire Brimlow.
00:05:29.000 I'm a writer for TimCast.com.
00:05:31.000 It's the best.
00:05:31.000 You should get all of your news exclusively from that.
00:05:34.000 I'm biased, though.
00:05:35.000 Ian's here.
00:05:35.000 Hi, everyone.
00:05:36.000 Ian Crossland.
00:05:37.000 Happy to be here.
00:05:38.000 I got this cool shirt.
00:05:39.000 Check it out.
00:05:40.000 It's an entire outfit, but I'm not sure.
00:05:42.000 I'm not going to show the pants.
00:05:42.000 It's gorgeous green velvet.
00:05:43.000 I love it.
00:05:44.000 I think we should give it to Nikki.
00:05:45.000 It just reminds me of that Jerry Seinfeld episode where he's like, but I don't want to be a pirate.
00:05:48.000 Yeah, the puffy shirt.
00:05:50.000 The puffy shirt.
00:05:50.000 It's my own personal puffy shirt.
00:05:52.000 Thanks.
00:05:53.000 Hey, I'm Surge.com.
00:05:55.000 The coffee is good.
00:05:56.000 I'm having Stand Your Grounds.
00:05:58.000 A little bit darker roast than I like, but it's really good.
00:06:01.000 So far, my second favorite behind Appalachian Nights, but I've only tried those two.
00:06:03.000 I agree.
00:06:04.000 I describe it as like a combination of Rise of the Birdo Jr.
00:06:07.000 and Appalachian Nights.
00:06:08.000 Strangely, it's very... This one here?
00:06:10.000 Yeah, it's like a mix.
00:06:11.000 It's like a, you know, it's a medium.
00:06:13.000 There you go.
00:06:13.000 Anyway, let's talk about news!
00:06:14.000 Let's do it.
00:06:15.000 We've got really good news for you guys to start off with.
00:06:19.000 Breaking from the post-millennial, Judge Rules Against Antifa Defendants in Default awards Andy Ngo $300,000 in damages over Portland attack.
00:06:30.000 Each defendant has been ordered to pay Andy Ngo $100,000.
00:06:32.000 I'm gonna be honest with you, I don't see how Andy Ngo collects, but maybe... I mean, I'm assuming the net worth of these Antifa people...
00:06:43.000 Probably in the, like, the negatives.
00:06:45.000 So, uh, good luck to Andy.
00:06:47.000 But hey, it's a spiritual victory.
00:06:49.000 It is a monetary victory.
00:06:50.000 And, you know, it's entirely possible that many of these Antifa people come from wealthy families.
00:06:55.000 They may have to just write him a check.
00:06:57.000 I hope Andy Ngo takes a nice beautiful vacation and buys himself a fancy car.
00:07:00.000 The court ruled in favor of post-millennial senior editor Andy Ngo on Monday in his civil trial against the remaining three alleged Antifa defendants that had physically attacked him in June 2019.
00:07:09.000 Defendants Corbin Bellia, Madison Leigh-Allen, and Samich Overkill-Schatzdeputy, that's the name, were found liable by Judge Sinapolisai for assault, battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
00:07:23.000 Each defendant has been ordered to pay, no, $100,000 in damages.
00:07:27.000 The virtual trial was held at the Multnomah County Courthouse on Monday after the three defendants were found in default for not responding to the court order to appear at the civil jury trial, which was held earlier this month.
00:07:37.000 Defendants Belia, Allen, and Schott's deputy, the guy changed his name apparently to that for that reason, We're allegedly involved in the June 29th, 2019 attack on Noh, in which he was brutally beaten by a mob of alleged Antifa members.
00:07:49.000 They're very careful with their fear of litigation.
00:07:52.000 While reporting on an event in Portland, Oregon, the attack received nationwide attention, and is most commonly referred to as the Milkshake Incident.
00:08:00.000 Noh was left severely injured and was admitted to the hospital after the attack left him with significant injury to the brain.
00:08:06.000 So we have, uh, I believe Andy Ngo has issued a statement saying at a hearing today regarding three defaulted Antifa defendants in my Ngo vs. V Rose City Antifa et al lawsuit.
00:08:16.000 The court heard evidence about the brutal 2019 beating I suffered at a Rose City Antifa event.
00:08:21.000 Where I was seriously injured, the court found that I was indeed battered and assaulted by Madison Denny Lee Allen, Catherine Corbin Bellia, and Samich Overkill shot deputy, formerly Joseph Christian Evans.
00:08:31.000 The court awarded me $300,000 to be split equally among these three attackers.
00:08:36.000 So here's what I want to say as we jump into the conversation.
00:08:40.000 The reason why these three individuals did not show up to court and were found in default, they were guilty, discernibly guilty, visibly guilty, in my opinion.
00:08:49.000 What I'm saying is, there's video footage of the attack, and as Andy Ngo tweeted, the judge found that they did commit battery and attack him.
00:08:56.000 I think they knew.
00:08:57.000 If they go in, they may even be arrested on criminal charges, but...
00:09:01.000 They actually, some of, my understanding is they did show up to the trial to watch.
00:09:05.000 After they defaulted, they then sat and watched the other people.
00:09:08.000 The other people that were being, that were on trial were found not liable.
00:09:12.000 And so this was pushed by the left as like, oh, Andy Ngo loses, it's a failure, blah blah blah.
00:09:18.000 But, now we have...
00:09:20.000 The award to Andy Ngo for $300,000.
00:09:23.000 Now, I know a lot of people are saying, oh, there's crazy stuff going on.
00:09:27.000 Someone super chatted already saying that they like some cop cars were set on fire in Asheville.
00:09:30.000 We do have that story.
00:09:31.000 And so everyone's very, very worried.
00:09:32.000 But my friends, we start you off today with a white pill.
00:09:35.000 Yo, Andy Ngo won $300,000!
00:09:37.000 So it's not a foregone conclusion.
00:09:40.000 Anybody trying to tell you to give up, it's over, Trump can't win, they're wrong.
00:09:44.000 They're completely wrong.
00:09:46.000 All of these never-Trumpers who keep saying Trump can't win, they're wrong.
00:09:50.000 I got the data to back that up, and we'll get into it.
00:09:52.000 But for the time being, here you go everybody.
00:09:54.000 It's a good day, huh?
00:09:55.000 Yeah, especially when it's a victory in basically what I would deem a hostile courtroom, right?
00:09:59.000 This is in Portland.
00:10:00.000 Hostile territory.
00:10:00.000 Exactly.
00:10:02.000 I think you're right.
00:10:02.000 It's hard to see if they'll actually ever pay out.
00:10:04.000 Maybe he has to get in line behind their student loan debt creditors, but there's a chance.
00:10:09.000 And it doesn't matter either way because they ruled in his favor.
00:10:12.000 It would be crazy to look at the videos of this attack.
00:10:15.000 Didn't they mix like concrete with this milkshake?
00:10:18.000 Yeah, the left claims they didn't.
00:10:20.000 But there are many reports that they did.
00:10:23.000 So it's a serious assault, and if any court had ruled any other way, we would really know that that whole city was a lost territory, in my opinion.
00:10:23.000 Yeah.
00:10:31.000 I think it's a good sign in general, too, because he was working with a group, Center for American Liberty, that people are growing a backbone and actually getting, you know, involved in litigation and taking things to the court system rather than just kind of grousing about it online.
00:10:46.000 They did work with, like, Simon Atiba.
00:10:48.000 I love him.
00:10:49.000 uh... and also have been i don't know if it's the same organization but launched a
00:10:53.000 lawsuit against the center for countering digital hate because they
00:10:55.000 keep targeting people on social media platforms i think that that
00:10:59.000 generally speaking aside from the stuff with andy it's just a good sign of
00:11:01.000 things to come absolutely because people have to get involved in
00:11:04.000 actually take things again i had a these lefties are really angry
00:11:09.000 They're mad that Andy Ngo actually won.
00:11:13.000 They tried making that claim, as I mentioned earlier, that because the judge ruled in favor of the other two Antifa, Andy Ngo loses.
00:11:19.000 Ha ha ha.
00:11:20.000 Yeah, but we knew, and we said this, the reason these guys skipped is likely because there's visible evidence of them committing this crime against Andy, and they're going to lose in court.
00:11:28.000 So by not showing up, they lose anyway.
00:11:30.000 They don't waste their time.
00:11:32.000 Concern for that judge and his safety, honestly.
00:11:35.000 And I have to wonder, you know, when it came to the first jury, the lawyer for Antifa actually said, I'm going to remember all of you, right?
00:11:46.000 And they were concerned from the jury that they were going to be doxed and threatened.
00:11:50.000 So I'm assuming the judge ordered this, but look, the judge had no choice.
00:11:54.000 I bet the judge was pissed off about it.
00:11:56.000 A Portland judge, probably super far left, but has no choice.
00:11:59.000 They're in default.
00:12:00.000 There's video.
00:12:01.000 They have no way to defend any of their actions.
00:12:03.000 And you know when.
00:12:04.000 Yeah.
00:12:04.000 I mean, maybe that's good then, right?
00:12:06.000 Like, of course, intimidating the jury is bad.
00:12:09.000 Of course, we want the judge to be safe.
00:12:10.000 But maybe it's a good sign that they were like, we're not even going to try and fight this because there's no way out of it, right?
00:12:16.000 Like, there are times that people need to see that you can push back and they will cave.
00:12:21.000 I think so often, because Antifa gets off and sort of easy, police don't prosecute them the same way they would other criminals.
00:12:28.000 It's easy to think there's no getting around them, they just get treated differently, and it's good to see Andy Ngo win this.
00:12:35.000 I guess I'm wondering what y'all think's gonna happen in the next year, right?
00:12:39.000 I don't think we've had a particularly lively summer this year.
00:12:43.000 It's an off-election year, so it's pretty chill.
00:12:46.000 But what ends up happening, it's really funny, you get these election years where there's absolute bedlam.
00:12:50.000 And everyone's like, the apocalypse is happening.
00:12:52.000 And then you get an off election year and everyone's like, you know what, maybe I overreact and everything's totally fine.
00:12:56.000 Then you get another election year and it's worse than it was the previous year.
00:13:00.000 So I'm wondering, what do you guys think?
00:13:01.000 2024, is it gonna get nuts?
00:13:03.000 I heard that people wanted to mask other people up again.
00:13:06.000 So I think it's COVID.
00:13:08.000 That is happening.
00:13:08.000 It was this lockdown stuff that drove people insane out onto the streets and rioting and crap.
00:13:13.000 So we didn't do it this year.
00:13:14.000 We didn't have the riots.
00:13:15.000 Let's not do it again next year.
00:13:17.000 I mean, I'm in such a state of civil disobedience right now.
00:13:19.000 I have so low interest in wrapping diapers on my face.
00:13:25.000 I got COVID.
00:13:26.000 I killed COVID.
00:13:27.000 I feel great now.
00:13:28.000 I don't want to go through this bullshit again.
00:13:30.000 So stand with me and let's shut it down before it begins.
00:13:34.000 Have a free and open society like we're meant to have.
00:13:36.000 I was talking about this earlier today because I went to Portland this weekend.
00:13:42.000 Portland?
00:13:43.000 I don't know about the rest of Maine, but Portland.
00:13:43.000 Maine?
00:13:45.000 They never got rid of their COVID policies.
00:13:49.000 So there's still, in the city, when you're walking down the street, you know how they put those banners on streetlights?
00:13:54.000 They all say, like, wear your mask, you must wear your mask, and things like that, with cartoon pictures of people wearing masks.
00:13:59.000 And, uh, the crazy story that I told is, the local casino in the area, they have, like, one in the whole state.
00:14:04.000 Well, there's a couple.
00:14:05.000 But the one in the area, it's called Oxford.
00:14:07.000 When you play a table game, these table poker games, you're not supposed to show your cards to anybody because it gives the players an advantage.
00:14:13.000 Because of their COVID policies still in effect today, they lay the cards down face up in front of everyone to see, so all the players can see the cards everyone else has, giving the players a massive edge against the casino.
00:14:25.000 Now, most people probably don't care about the casino stuff, but I'm just telling you, this was my, I cannot believe that it is 2023 entering 2024, and in Maine, they still have such ridiculous and extreme COVID lockdown policies in place.
00:14:38.000 The only thing people said to me is, outside of the casino, for the most part, everyone ignores the lockdown measures.
00:14:43.000 And I'm surprised the casino doesn't at least try to get the city to repeal them or whatever else because it seems like they would just lose money by giving everyone else an advantage.
00:14:52.000 I'll just tell you guys, we made two grand.
00:14:53.000 Yeah, me and Allison, my girlfriend, we played 200 bucks each.
00:14:58.000 That was it.
00:14:59.000 And we walked out with over $2,000 because, like, when you can see the other player's cards, you can calculate your odds really easily.
00:15:06.000 It's like, imagine if the casino was forced to allow you to count cards and explain to you the counting of cards.
00:15:11.000 You'd just be winning at blackjack all the time.
00:15:13.000 That's basically like, oh, I can see that no one else has any aces and I have ace king.
00:15:17.000 It's like, I'm going to bet really big.
00:15:18.000 Look at that.
00:15:18.000 I won.
00:15:19.000 Yeah.
00:15:20.000 I mean, in terms of what's going to happen next year, I feel like I would want to look at the violent crime statistics, which spiked after COVID, and obviously we had our fun summer of love.
00:15:31.000 An election year will probably put people on edge if they do try and enforce some kind of lockdown in the fall, like I've heard rumors are going to.
00:15:38.000 Then maybe people will be on edge.
00:15:40.000 But generally, I think we are actually becoming more accustomed to violence right now.
00:15:45.000 We're more used to seeing violent incidents reported.
00:15:48.000 And so in some ways, yes, there weren't like major riotings the way there were in 2020.
00:15:52.000 On the other hand, we are actually seeing generally unrest in major cities across the country.
00:15:58.000 You know, to actually worry about this Andy Ngo verdict is that it will make things worse.
00:16:04.000 And the reason is, Who is going to enforce that $300,000 against these individuals?
00:16:11.000 These are derelict individuals as it is.
00:16:14.000 So Andy, like I mentioned, they probably have negative money.
00:16:17.000 There's a moral victory here, but the reason why I fear there's a potential for escalation is when Antifa realize the courts have no real enforcement authority against people who own nothing, There's nothing that can be done.
00:16:29.000 These individuals we would call judgment-proof.
00:16:31.000 Now, don't get me wrong, they may actually be trust fund babies.
00:16:35.000 A lot of these far-left extremists come from very wealthy families.
00:16:39.000 So they may be going, Mom, I have to pay a hundred grand.
00:16:42.000 And they're like, just take it out of one of the accounts.
00:16:43.000 I don't care who cares.
00:16:45.000 And then they write a check.
00:16:46.000 If that's it, good.
00:16:47.000 And you know, gets $300,000, I hope he buys himself a Tesla or something.
00:16:51.000 But I think there's a strong possibility these individuals don't own anything.
00:16:55.000 Their net worth is probably in the range of like a couple hundred dollars.
00:16:55.000 They have no money.
00:17:00.000 So what's gonna happen?
00:17:00.000 Andy Ngo's gonna have a sheriff come knock on the door and be like, well, we're taking what you do have and he's gonna get an old pair of leather boots or something?
00:17:06.000 He's gonna get like an Antifa outfit.
00:17:07.000 And how much has he spent on his defense right now?
00:17:09.000 I mean, he must have so much money locked up in legal fees.
00:17:12.000 Potentially, he could garnish wages.
00:17:15.000 But do they have wages?
00:17:17.000 Exactly.
00:17:18.000 That's what I'm saying.
00:17:19.000 And so other Antifa could be like, hey, look, nothing bad happened.
00:17:22.000 They didn't go to jail.
00:17:23.000 Even though the judge was like, yeah, they did it.
00:17:25.000 Even if they got arrested, they'd just be set loose again.
00:17:27.000 Yup.
00:17:28.000 Is there, if you don't pay 100k, if they're just like, nah, screw you, don't they get arrested and go to jail then?
00:17:34.000 Nope.
00:17:35.000 Just held for 30 days?
00:17:35.000 No, they do not.
00:17:37.000 We don't have debtor's prisons anymore.
00:17:39.000 Nope.
00:17:40.000 No, what, uh, what would happen is, like, let's say you got sued and you didn't pay, then the court would be like, they'd go to the sheriff and be like, this person's in default for a court-ordered payment.
00:17:53.000 The sheriff comes and knocks on the door and says, like, we're here to collect belongings and you can be like, I don't have anything.
00:17:57.000 So garnish wages in perpetuity until it's paid off?
00:18:00.000 Garnish wages is a possibility, but that means these people are getting paid through an actual payroll company or something.
00:18:08.000 That's what I'm saying.
00:18:10.000 These people are like derelict extremists.
00:18:12.000 They're gonna get paid under the table.
00:18:14.000 They're gonna go to some ally in Portland, and they're gonna say, you gotta pay me under- They're gonna go to a proper business, even a McDonald's, and they'll go to the far-left extremist person who works there and be like, just pay me under the table.
00:18:24.000 And they'll be like, you got it.
00:18:26.000 Maybe not a McDonald's, because there's a lot of red tape there, but there will be like a mom-and-pop cafe, and they'll be like, don't worry, we'll pay you cash and no one will know what's happening.
00:18:34.000 And then Andy No can't get any of your money.
00:18:35.000 I just have to find someone who's sympathetic to it, and they'll be on board.
00:18:38.000 Not hard to do in Portland.
00:18:39.000 No.
00:18:40.000 But we do have more good news, my friends.
00:18:41.000 I have another big story for you guys that happened over the weekend.
00:18:44.000 From the post-millennial!
00:18:46.000 Suspected Trump 1 flag arsonist identified using Strava after reward offered by Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, as well as John Cain, the man who posted the video in the first place.
00:18:58.000 Now, I don't want to identify the individual just yet.
00:19:03.000 The individual who's been named, but, uh, so I'm gonna, I'm gonna, uh, not post anything from this just yet, but I will just say, there is a viral video going around where a bicyclist rides up to a truck, a sign in someone's yard that says Trump won, starts kicking it, comes back later and sets it on fire, comes back for a second time after it was rebuilt, sets it on fire again.
00:19:23.000 In one of the videos, there's an American flag hanging above it.
00:19:27.000 He tries pushing it out of the way, clearly expressing knowledge that he could be starting a major fire, and he didn't want to, he wanted to move the flag out of the way, but then it just falls right back and shuts the fire anyway.
00:19:38.000 He knew that this fire could have spread to the trees, burned down homes, potentially caused another major wildfire, but the good news is, he's been identified!
00:19:47.000 And, uh, we, uh, so I had seen the video that said $1,000 reward for this.
00:19:52.000 I offered $5,000.
00:19:53.000 Benny Johnson quickly came out, offered another $5,000.
00:19:55.000 And then a man in California identified the guy.
00:19:58.000 Here's the crazy part.
00:20:00.000 He was identified using his Strava bicycle, like GPS tracker.
00:20:05.000 So basically, these, like, people who go for jogs and bike will get this app, I guess, and it will show, publicly, the route you take.
00:20:14.000 Somebody found the guy who's got a tattoo on his arm of, like, a teddy bear or something, and then they saw him in a news story, got his name, and then they looked up his Strava account, because he's a bicyclist, and they found that he rode his bike in that area at the time of the arson, Ladies and gentlemen, we got him.
00:20:29.000 Dude, it's amazing you had your Strava active while you were going to go commit a crime.
00:20:33.000 Because I used Strava years ago, like probably 10 years ago, even less than that.
00:20:37.000 It's very accurate as to where you were.
00:20:38.000 To have that on just to get the claim for how many miles you did while you're committing a crime in the middle of nowhere.
00:20:44.000 I need my miles, though!
00:20:44.000 Arson, dude!
00:20:46.000 Now this one got some lefties really, really mad at me.
00:20:50.000 And they were... I got some messages where they were like, why are you offering a reward for this?
00:20:53.000 And I was like, the dude committed arson twice, man!
00:20:57.000 The only way we de-escalate what's going on with all the extremism and the violence is if there is a neutral arbiter of the law that just says, you cannot commit arson.
00:21:07.000 The idea that there are lefties being like, this man should not be criminally charged for this just shows...
00:21:13.000 Kinda how far gone we are right now in our cultural divide.
00:21:16.000 Yeah, that the guy didn't turn his Strava off indicates, like, what did he, like, where's the brainpower right now about people just committing crimes and thinking they're not gonna get caught or get in trouble for it?
00:21:25.000 Or they're justified.
00:21:27.000 Like, maybe he was like, this sign is ruining the neighborhood, it's wrong.
00:21:30.000 They're insane.
00:21:31.000 It doesn't make any sense.
00:21:32.000 It's like a kid that has anger issues and gets thrown in juvie.
00:21:35.000 Like, sometimes you just gotta face the music once to know what you're up against, because the legal system does not give a fuck.
00:21:41.000 And I think we should all be against arsonists.
00:21:43.000 I know that's a strong stance to take, but I'm willing to say, like, if you're gonna burn someone's private property down, I think that's bad.
00:21:49.000 We should collectively agree.
00:21:51.000 If he went back twice and he still had it going, just to record the extra miles, to get the extra miles in his account, that's amazing.
00:21:56.000 I hope that the threat of potentially burning down the house and the area around the fire adds extra charges to this guy.
00:22:02.000 Oh, he's got to get, like, attempted murder.
00:22:04.000 I mean, I don't see him doing it.
00:22:06.000 But there's got to be some charges.
00:22:07.000 So Benny Johnson tweeted that apparently this guy has already confessed to the police.
00:22:12.000 They came by and said, did you do this?
00:22:14.000 He said yes.
00:22:16.000 And, you know, to varying degrees, he may or may not have been crying when he confessed to having done it.
00:22:21.000 I think this guy is so riddled with Trump derangement syndrome that his brain is just doesn't it doesn't work.
00:22:28.000 So when he rides his bike, normal guy just rides the bike.
00:22:31.000 You see a sign.
00:22:31.000 You don't like you go.
00:22:32.000 You roll your eyes.
00:22:33.000 He loses it.
00:22:33.000 Right.
00:22:35.000 Completely loses it and then commits arson on two different occasions.
00:22:39.000 Did he know the guy whose house it was?
00:22:41.000 Because that would make it premeditated.
00:22:41.000 Nope.
00:22:43.000 Nope.
00:22:43.000 I can't imagine getting that mad over anything, to be quite honest.
00:22:46.000 Maybe he like rode past it every day for months and he just lost it.
00:22:51.000 Actually, is premeditated arson more of a crime than just on a whim?
00:22:55.000 I mean... Because he went back the second time.
00:22:57.000 We must ask a lawyer, but you're right, going back the second time shows that he had He went there two lighted on fire.
00:23:04.000 He went back a couple days later, too.
00:23:06.000 It's like he must have really went home and stewed on it so much.
00:23:11.000 He's like, I gotta go burn that thing down.
00:23:13.000 Let me play the video for everybody.
00:23:15.000 Look, here's the thing.
00:23:17.000 Innocent until proven guilty.
00:23:18.000 So people are putting out his name and everything right now, which was the intention.
00:23:22.000 My intention with the reward is what I said was information that leads to the arrest and conviction of this individual.
00:23:28.000 I'm not going to be posting his name or anything like that.
00:23:31.000 His name is on all the news articles, so it can be easily looked up, but I think the evidence is pretty damning.
00:23:37.000 The identification that they have for him, but innocent until proven guilty, so here's the video.
00:23:42.000 Here you can see on August 12th, he rides up.
00:23:46.000 Just starts kicking it.
00:23:48.000 For being a bicycle.
00:23:48.000 No, but here's the crazy thing.
00:23:50.000 Weak legs.
00:23:51.000 No, but why is he kicking it?
00:23:53.000 He's also trespassing.
00:23:54.000 Yeah, absolutely.
00:23:55.000 What does kicking the sign do other than he's just very, very angry?
00:23:58.000 That's it.
00:23:59.000 Well, he probably wants to break it, right?
00:24:00.000 He wants it to be ripped.
00:24:01.000 That way people can't read it as easily.
00:24:03.000 But he didn't even get off his bike.
00:24:04.000 He's thinking about lighting a fire right now.
00:24:05.000 He's not as mad as he could be.
00:24:06.000 He's thinking about it.
00:24:07.000 He's like, it's made of wood, I'm gonna get it.
00:24:09.000 Well, it's August 12th, 714 AM.
00:24:10.000 When did he come back?
00:24:11.000 He comes back, I think that night.
00:24:13.000 Oh no, a day later.
00:24:15.000 Look at this, look at this.
00:24:16.000 420 in the morning.
00:24:17.000 So see how he tries to move the flag out of the way?
00:24:18.000 He knows he could start a major fire.
00:24:22.000 And then it just falls right back, it didn't do anything.
00:24:24.000 And he came prepared with a lighter.
00:24:25.000 Oh, that's premeditated for sure.
00:24:28.000 It's like a big lighter.
00:24:29.000 Yeah, it's not like a lighter that you use to like, I don't know, smoke or whatever.
00:24:32.000 You use it to start like your campfire.
00:24:34.000 Your grill, yeah.
00:24:35.000 Your candles.
00:24:36.000 This guy belongs in prison.
00:24:37.000 I love how he runs away.
00:24:39.000 He needs to learn why you don't set things on fire.
00:24:40.000 Well, he doesn't want to get burned, Serge.
00:24:42.000 Of course he does.
00:24:42.000 Right, yeah, it's such a huge fire.
00:24:43.000 It could have been a huge fire.
00:24:44.000 It really could have been.
00:24:45.000 So he destroys it, but here's the thing.
00:24:47.000 He comes back several days later.
00:24:49.000 To the scene of the crime.
00:24:50.000 So John Kane, who owns it, Fixes the sign.
00:24:54.000 And here you can see, it says February 18th.
00:24:56.000 John Cain issued a correction saying it's August 18th.
00:24:59.000 Here he comes.
00:25:00.000 Once again.
00:25:01.000 420 in the morning.
00:25:02.000 Same time.
00:25:02.000 Yup.
00:25:03.000 What the heck?
00:25:03.000 He's out there with a lighter.
00:25:04.000 That's suspicious.
00:25:05.000 Suspicious.
00:25:05.000 That's pathological.
00:25:06.000 Suspicious.
00:25:06.000 He's just blazed.
00:25:08.000 Then he runs off.
00:25:08.000 That's like a kitchen lighter, so I don't know.
00:25:08.000 Look at this.
00:25:11.000 This guy's nuts.
00:25:13.000 That's 420.
00:25:14.000 And they offered a $1,000 reward.
00:25:16.000 You can see he had a tattoo of like a... I think it's a pig maybe on his arm, but uh... People on the chat were saying the Pedobear from 4chan, but I don't know if that's accurate.
00:25:22.000 It's probably something to do with pigs, I would make... Yeah, there's like a pig on it or something.
00:25:22.000 No, it's not!
00:25:26.000 But they found him!
00:25:27.000 They found him because, uh... What's he doing?
00:25:29.000 He's like riding his bike at 4 in the morning.
00:25:31.000 That's a biker thing, though.
00:25:33.000 That's normal.
00:25:34.000 That's fine, I'm saying.
00:25:34.000 But like, then he stops to commit arson on two occasions.
00:25:37.000 That's so crazy, man.
00:25:38.000 This guy, you know, he's not gonna go to prison.
00:25:40.000 What's gonna happen is they're gonna offer him some kind of plea deal.
00:25:42.000 It's a first offense.
00:25:43.000 They're gonna say, you know, you'd never do this again.
00:25:45.000 He'll have to pay a fine.
00:25:47.000 I don't know, though.
00:25:48.000 Arson's pretty serious.
00:25:49.000 But he did it twice, you know?
00:25:50.000 And the fact that he moved the flag means that instantly he knew if this fire spread and it took this flag, the trees around it, everything, could go up.
00:25:59.000 So, John Cain, the guy who, uh, let me actually, I'll pull up his Twitter.
00:26:04.000 I don't wanna, uh, let's see here.
00:26:07.000 So here's John Cain, and here's a video he posted.
00:26:10.000 I'm not gonna play the full video, but he points out right here, you can see, that the sign right here, Let's see, uh... There's a flag.
00:26:19.000 Attached to the trees.
00:26:21.000 Now here's the important thing about wildfires.
00:26:23.000 They travel up trees and then across the top of them.
00:26:26.000 And that's the point he's bringing up.
00:26:28.000 That this sign is right next to the flag.
00:26:31.000 This guy tried moving out of the way knowing that if the fire spread up this, it could get into the trees.
00:26:35.000 And if it was a dry day, those trees go up, it spreads around, and it... It could burn the entire neighborhood.
00:26:41.000 How many houses could have gone down because of it?
00:26:43.000 So, uh... We got him, ladies and gentlemen.
00:26:45.000 Does Cain have any say in if this guy gets prosecuted, or is this all federal out of his hands at this point?
00:26:50.000 So, here's the other thing.
00:26:51.000 James Lawrence, a lawyer from Envisage Law, yeah, we got it right here, was retained to file civil suit against this guy who committed this, and now that we know who he is, and that he's, according to sources, confessed to the crime, Well, I mean, actually, perhaps considering that he's confessed, let me pull up Benny Johnson's tweet and see what Benny said about this.
00:27:10.000 Because, uh... Then we'll just show his name if he's confessed to it.
00:27:16.000 I'm trying to be careful here, you know?
00:27:18.000 Trying to be careful.
00:27:19.000 Yeah, it's hard, because you don't want to jump the gun and stick the internet on him.
00:27:23.000 On the other hand, it's pretty bad.
00:27:24.000 Just because someone posted a photo of a guy that is him from a different area doesn't mean it's the right name.
00:27:29.000 That's what I'm concerned about.
00:27:31.000 That's why I want the police to be involved.
00:27:34.000 First.
00:27:35.000 Reduce harm?
00:27:35.000 Is that one of journalistic tenets?
00:27:37.000 Minimize harm?
00:27:38.000 Man, that's something that needs to be taken seriously today.
00:27:38.000 Minimize harm?
00:27:41.000 With all these docs and crap, people saying each other's names, reposting videos of this and that.
00:27:46.000 Minimize harm.
00:27:47.000 But Benny is very confident.
00:27:50.000 Outright saying, it is this guy who did this thing.
00:27:54.000 I mean, that's bold.
00:27:56.000 As we have already shown with the post-millennial, typically in this space, people are very careful with direct statements of fact, especially on criminal activities.
00:28:04.000 But for Benny Johnson to outright say, this is it.
00:28:07.000 According to my sources, the man has admitted to the crime, and we are waiting to see if the DA will charge him.
00:28:13.000 I'm going to hold off on saying his name.
00:28:16.000 You can easily find it.
00:28:17.000 Post Malone has reported it.
00:28:17.000 Benny Johnson's reported it.
00:28:18.000 John Cain's tweeted it out.
00:28:20.000 But I'm going to hold back because if the DA brings charges, then we absolutely can say the guy's name.
00:28:26.000 For the time being, I think the important factor here is we're not backing down.
00:28:30.000 This is the legal way to take care of things.
00:28:33.000 It is the peaceful way to take care of things.
00:28:35.000 And you must understand.
00:28:37.000 The Democrat machine going against Trump, guys like this, they desperately want a violent reaction.
00:28:45.000 And so when I see these people on Axe, aka Twitter, that are either anti-Trump or just like super pro-Trump at Black Belt saying, there's no way to win, the deep state, the deep state, I'm just like, stop listening to those people.
00:28:59.000 The only... Look, this guy has been found out.
00:29:02.000 He's gonna get sued.
00:29:03.000 We'll see if he gets charged.
00:29:05.000 Andy Ngo just won $300,000 against people who attacked him.
00:29:08.000 These are victories.
00:29:09.000 You've got Bud Light's collapse.
00:29:10.000 You've got Target's collapse.
00:29:11.000 You've got Sound of Freedom.
00:29:13.000 We got other news we didn't even mention.
00:29:14.000 Rich Men North of Richmond debuts Billboard Hot 100 number one.
00:29:20.000 That is huge.
00:29:21.000 The highest chart in the world for music, Rich Man North of Rich Man number one.
00:29:26.000 Yo, we are winning all across the board.
00:29:28.000 The things they are doing are acts of psychotic desperation.
00:29:32.000 We need to stick to the legal path, we need to make sure we are handling everything procedurally, and we're gonna win this.
00:29:37.000 I also think that people from this strata of, I don't know, of culture, will sell each other out.
00:29:44.000 So if one of them commits a crime and then the other one gets $10,000 to turn him in, he'll turn him in.
00:29:48.000 Absolutely.
00:29:49.000 Yep.
00:29:50.000 What do you think would have happened if, obviously, if it hadn't turned into a wildfire, but if the Trump sign and the flag had burned, would the charge be a hate crime then?
00:29:58.000 Like, at what point was he trying to avoid things being worse by avoid- like, he didn't want the tree to catch fire, but also, like, did he want- is there an implication where he wanted to avoid burning the American flag?
00:30:10.000 Well, I don't think- I'm just curious, I don't have an answer.
00:30:12.000 Burning the American flag isn't a hate crime.
00:30:15.000 But attached to a political sign, it feels worse.
00:30:18.000 Politics is not a particular class.
00:30:19.000 That's true.
00:30:20.000 I don't think this guy intentionally wanted anyone to die, but here's my assessment of this man.
00:30:27.000 I'm willing to bet this guy sits at home watching the news praying for the death of Trump supporters.
00:30:33.000 I don't think he intentionally, I don't think he wanted his arson to kill anybody.
00:30:39.000 However, taking into consideration the hatred he has and the willingness to commit arson, and his feelings are completely irrelevant, he committed a criminal act that could have resulted in the death of a lot of people.
00:30:51.000 And that's what matters.
00:30:52.000 It's so crazy how people can get so twisted from watching mainstream media news, from watching too much MSNBC, too much Rachel Maddow, too much anything probably, too much Tucker Carlson, maybe could drive people insane too.
00:31:02.000 The fear, the thought that a guy can ruin it all.
00:31:06.000 Hitler didn't do it alone.
00:31:08.000 Hitler did it because he had thousands of people working together.
00:31:12.000 I mean, to be honest, I can't speak for exactly, but it wasn't just like...
00:31:16.000 A guy can go ruin everything.
00:31:19.000 This whole fear of Donald Trump is the most... It just empowers the demon.
00:31:24.000 I wish that I could say this a little more articulately, but it really, really disappoints me and makes me nauseated to see how people become afraid of a single man.
00:31:32.000 It's disgusting.
00:31:34.000 And it neuters people's ability to create and to become powerful forces for themselves.
00:31:39.000 I've seen it happen to my friends in LA.
00:31:41.000 It's just so depressing.
00:31:42.000 Yeah, but how could you not, though, after, like, almost eight years of being told, if this person takes office, everything comes crumbling to the ground, you know what I mean?
00:31:49.000 Like, the language that the media has surrounding Donald Trump is meant to inspire fear, and of course, this kind of deranged behavior is a result of years of cultivating anger and fear.
00:32:01.000 For me, it was being alive during 9-11 and having the bullshit story fed to us and like, hey, we're going to go get Saddam Hussein now.
00:32:08.000 And we're like, what in the hell does that have to do with Osama bin Laden?
00:32:10.000 Watching the wool pulled over my eyes, I was on guard for when the media comes out and says, and now this is the bad guy.
00:32:17.000 We have a new bad guy.
00:32:18.000 It's going to be this guy.
00:32:19.000 And now this is a bad thing.
00:32:21.000 I've already been through the crap.
00:32:23.000 I'm done with it.
00:32:24.000 But a lot of people, I guess, just maybe they're, I don't want to say stupid.
00:32:27.000 I used to be one of these people.
00:32:30.000 What changed?
00:32:32.000 My parents didn't abandon me, but I used to be one of these people.
00:32:37.000 I used to tweet about, well, I didn't tweet.
00:32:39.000 I was on Facebook, you know, making posts about how much our, I would call him our game show host president.
00:32:46.000 And I, like, I was this person.
00:32:47.000 I was, but I was very unhappy with myself.
00:32:51.000 And when I would look to basically any sort of I watched a lot of John Oliver and thought that being snarky and kind of sarcastic meant you were smart, which, again, we've learned more since then.
00:33:02.000 But when you would look at any sort of institution, any sort of media organization, and they would tell you, oh, this is the root of all your problems, and you're already a pretty miserable person, it didn't take that long for that to stick.
00:33:17.000 I tend to think about this a lot because I am terrified that I was 100% caught up in that
00:33:23.000 psychological hive mind. But it was my parents that kind of brought me back from the brink.
00:33:28.000 My stepmom, she died earlier this year, but she used to just look at me and laugh when I would go
00:33:33.000 on some tirade and be like, well, Lauren, why do you think that? And I didn't know. And I would get
00:33:37.000 so mad at her. And she would just smile. It's so defensive and so angry. And she would just keep
00:33:42.000 just be like, well, why do you think that? And I could not tell her. And that was kind of what
00:33:46.000 helped bring me out of it. But it's when you again, they're just being told that that's the
00:33:51.000 root of all your problems everywhere you look. And you're so upset and angry and miserable that
00:33:56.000 that's easy to go along with.
00:33:57.000 When they were asking you, why do you think that, when your stepmom asked you that, like, did you, like, one night you were just laying in bed thinking, like, did it snap?
00:34:03.000 And you were like, why do I think this?
00:34:05.000 What happened?
00:34:06.000 Well, I can tell you actually.
00:34:07.000 Again, it was my parents continuing to show up, but there was actually one of my, I guess people call it the red pill moment.
00:34:14.000 It was Hurricane Maria that had kind of leveled Puerto Rico.
00:34:18.000 And I'm sorry, I'm not smiling about that.
00:34:19.000 I'm just thinking about my stepmom.
00:34:21.000 But it had like really devastated Puerto Rico.
00:34:25.000 And I had made a post on Facebook.
00:34:28.000 Our game show host president is tweeting about pro sports players while Puerto Rico lies in tatters.
00:34:32.000 He's been tweeting about like Colin Kaepernick.
00:34:35.000 And that post on Facebook got a ton of likes, and at the time, you know, my ego was directly tied to how well a post did on social media.
00:34:43.000 But then about a year later, it came out that they had found runways full of supplies, warehouses full of medicine and supplies and water and food and things that had just rotted, and how mismanaged that was.
00:34:56.000 And I, someone managed to get that in front of me, and I felt a real deep sense of shame And I directly remember that specific Facebook post.
00:35:06.000 And so I felt this shame that I did not want to feel again and having been rather wrong about something.
00:35:11.000 And so it's taken time.
00:35:13.000 I think it's certainly still an ongoing process, but I would rather take my time than get fooled again.
00:35:20.000 To specify, had the Trump administration sent all these resources down there and then they had mishandled it down there?
00:35:28.000 They if you go back and look at it, it really is.
00:35:31.000 It was a clown show.
00:35:33.000 You know, they were making T-shirts and wearing them on the news of, you know, disparaging Trump and his response.
00:35:40.000 He was they had sent a ton of money and ton of supplies.
00:35:44.000 I don't know if these supplies directly were from the Trump administration or from the United States.
00:35:49.000 I assume so.
00:35:51.000 But it was just a matter of how mismanaged it all was and how much time they had spent in front of the cameras.
00:35:56.000 Again, getting t-shirts printed in a place that didn't have power.
00:36:00.000 How did that happen?
00:36:00.000 When they could have distributed the stuff they had.
00:36:02.000 You're wasting your time doing this sort of stuff for TV and for clicks rather than managing the disaster response.
00:36:13.000 I'm going to try to be very careful in my phrasing here.
00:36:14.000 I find single disaster response to be a time when you can really see people's true colors.
00:36:22.000 You see the same thing with the wildfire in Lahana and Maui.
00:36:27.000 I'm sure I'm saying that wrong, but in Maui, because there's no one else to blame aside from FEMA response, local response.
00:36:35.000 And everyone's kind of pointing the finger at each other.
00:36:38.000 And, you know, the fact that they were tying the, was it the Disaster Relief Fund under FEMA?
00:36:44.000 They were tying the refilling of that fund and replenishing of it, which is set to expire at the end of August.
00:36:49.000 They were trying to tie that to, they set aside, I think, I might get the numbers wrong, but about $14 billion for the Disaster Relief Fund and then another $24 million to Ukraine.
00:36:58.000 They were trying to tie these two things together.
00:37:00.000 And you really see where people's priorities are.
00:37:02.000 And I think that that's just I don't like that that's how it is, but I think it's an important place to look, you know, in direct response to catastrophe.
00:37:10.000 Yeah.
00:37:11.000 Well, there's a lot more happening.
00:37:12.000 I want to briefly mention this story, too.
00:37:13.000 Sorry for talking so much.
00:37:14.000 This is from Citizen Times.
00:37:16.000 Asheville police car is completely destroyed by suspected arson seeking public's help.
00:37:20.000 So someone had super chatted this before the show mentioning it, and I think it's important to bring up.
00:37:25.000 We're not out of the woods.
00:37:26.000 Crazy stuff's going on.
00:37:28.000 And I think it's important that people recognize this stuff in two ways.
00:37:31.000 One, yo, crazy stuff is happening with political tensions.
00:37:34.000 They're escalating.
00:37:34.000 But also, two cars being burned doesn't necessarily mean the apocalypse is nigh.
00:37:41.000 So all in all, I think that we're seeing really, really positive signs and the desperation from the machine is enjoyable.
00:37:49.000 I'm not going to look at this and let it get me down.
00:37:51.000 I hope they find whoever did it and bring them to justice.
00:37:53.000 This is insane.
00:37:55.000 But for all we know, it could be just like a guy who had a grudge specifically on this department.
00:37:58.000 It could be a guy who mugged a lady and got arrested and said, I'll show them.
00:38:02.000 Or it could be far left extremists who are like, we're coming after cops.
00:38:05.000 We'll see.
00:38:06.000 But I want to jump to this next story, my friends.
00:38:08.000 This one.
00:38:10.000 This is fantastic news.
00:38:11.000 Ladies and gentlemen from Variety, Rich Men North of Richmond debuts at number one as Oliver Anthony makes Billboard chart history.
00:38:21.000 Yo, this is RichmanNorthOfRichman debuting at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, making the singer-songwriter the first artist ever to notch the achievement with no prior chart history in any form.
00:38:35.000 He is the sixth artist in Billboard chart history to debut a first solo Hot 100 entry at number one, following Zayn, Bauer, Carrie Underwood, Fantasia, and Clay Aiken.
00:38:44.000 And RichmanNorthOfRichman is the first solo written Hot 100 number one since 2020's heatwaves by Glass Animals, which topped the charts for five weeks in March and April of 2022.
00:38:57.000 It was widely shed in line, along with a video of the Beard Country folk singer, etc, etc.
00:39:01.000 What did it say?
00:39:01.000 Here we go.
00:39:04.000 17.5 million streams and 147,000 downloads in the tracking week ending August 17th per Luminate.
00:39:11.000 A YouTube video of the song has 30 million views to date.
00:39:15.000 Which means he will likely be number one next week as well.
00:39:20.000 Here's what I gotta say to y'all.
00:39:21.000 Go to iTunes, buy the song, give him the dollar.
00:39:25.000 One purchase for a dollar counts as 150 streams.
00:39:29.000 If he gets, I think he needs 150 million streams, and it looks like he's already got 30 plus 147,000 downloads, so multiply that by 150.
00:39:37.000 If he gets one million downloads, he will be platinum.
00:39:43.000 Let's do what we can.
00:39:45.000 I think rich men north of Richmond should be platinum.
00:39:47.000 I'll tell you why.
00:39:48.000 I'm not a country guy.
00:39:50.000 Never been a big country guy.
00:39:51.000 But anything that advances independent culture, challenging the corporate machine, pushing back on Hollywood and these sick record labels and the entertainment industry, Needs to succeed.
00:40:05.000 And that's why, I mean, just seeing the success of this song, the failures of Bud Light, failures of Target, the success of Sound of Freedom.
00:40:12.000 Ladies and gentlemen, this is changing the culture and winning the culture war.
00:40:17.000 And they know it.
00:40:18.000 That's why they're getting so desperate and angry.
00:40:21.000 As they drown, they will start violently thrashing about.
00:40:24.000 And you know what they say, when you're trying to rescue someone who's drowning, not that we should figuratively rescue companies that are failing, but if you try to rescue them, they'll drag you down with them.
00:40:35.000 You gotta be careful about the massive multinational corporations and the entertainment industry and their creepy predilections and the weird things they promote.
00:40:44.000 As they lose power, they will become angry and violent and splash fervently in desperation.
00:40:50.000 This means you're going to see more laws being lobbied to ban the things that we're doing.
00:40:54.000 They're going to say, here's what they're going to do.
00:40:55.000 They're going to say, well, we can't allow these songs to succeed because it's anti-union.
00:41:00.000 Because it goes, where's the music union?
00:41:01.000 You know, where's BMI or ASCAP or whatever?
00:41:04.000 And they're going to claim that this is a threat because, you know, it's going to allow exploitation, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:41:09.000 They're losing.
00:41:11.000 I'm having a good day.
00:41:12.000 Yeah, I think it's cool.
00:41:13.000 I like when things just organically happen.
00:41:16.000 I'm sort of, I'm not a particularly like musical person anyways, but so often I feel like the songs that are popular right now are just developed in the machine for the machine to benefit the machine and it's cool to see someone else do something and it have such a big response.
00:41:31.000 I have a confession to make.
00:41:33.000 So I've read the lyrics, but I've actually not listened to the song yet.
00:41:37.000 But I tend to be a little bit apprehensive about stuff like that, for exactly what you said, where I think it's probably some sort of, you know, setup or kind of trying to create the feeling of virality.
00:41:49.000 And the fact that that's even a thing is honestly so weird, you know, that they'll try to come across as being organic, which I'm not saying that that is.
00:41:56.000 So I've honestly been a little bit apprehensive of it.
00:41:59.000 Well, I contrast this with Miley Cyrus's Flowers, which it was like a catchy, fun song, I guess, but it had no kind of substance to it.
00:42:07.000 And also they prepped its release by basically hinting and dropping notes in the tabloids like, she's got scandalous stuff in her personal life, you should listen to this song.
00:42:07.000 Oh, sure.
00:42:16.000 And so it was big for a little while because the industry kind of I don't know, I had this gross reaction to, like, she's had a troubled marriage and therefore hears this not-so-good pop song.
00:42:25.000 So here's some content.
00:42:26.000 Right.
00:42:26.000 Consume it.
00:42:27.000 And I'd rather have something like this that is about values, that's about something deep.
00:42:31.000 Whoa, I mean, we can criticize rap instead.
00:42:33.000 We can criticize all kinds of things.
00:42:35.000 Criticize anything you want to.
00:42:36.000 Just because I don't like it doesn't mean that, you know, everyone can't listen to it anyways.
00:42:40.000 I happen to like this type of music.
00:42:42.000 I also happen to think this was kind of refreshing.
00:42:45.000 I think people are sort of starved for a little bit more in their lyrics.
00:42:48.000 I think that a lot of country music roots were absolutely kind of centered in that sort of theming too, you know, or however you say the word.
00:42:58.000 I will add this.
00:42:59.000 I've explained this in the previous segments we talked about with Billboard, but we put out some music and the challenges we face, the music we make and independent artists are making, people who are outside the machine, is that a major label band releases a new album.
00:43:18.000 That label will go to Pandora, Spotify, blah blah whatever.
00:43:22.000 They'll say, even new bands, they'll say like, hey we've got a new band coming out, we want their songs on this playlist.
00:43:30.000 And what'll happen is the digital streaming playlist will be like, sounds good to us.
00:43:35.000 Then, some people are hanging out on a Friday night at their buddy's house, they order pizza, and someone's like, I'm gonna put on Pandora, and they choose rock and roll, or rock, or hard rock, or indie rock, and then this new song starts playing.
00:43:48.000 They didn't look for it, it's just on the streaming playlist.
00:43:52.000 That band will get a lot of play and a lot of promotion, and if the song is good, then people will share it, put it, they'll save it, they'll give it a thumbs up, it'll be played more, and then they crack the billboard lists.
00:44:03.000 For Oliver Anthony, he had absolutely none of that.
00:44:06.000 It was pure, organic support for his music and enjoyment of his music that resulted in him hitting this chart.
00:44:12.000 So if, uh, there's one band that I actually really like one of the songs they put out and it was the weirdest thing to see someone with less than a thousand subscribers, no music presence whatsoever, get signed to a label, put out a song that I liked but no one's ever heard of, the song failed, charted nowhere, but it was placed on all of these major radio stations and playlists and I'm like, that's the machine.
00:44:36.000 Yeah, someone's behind the screens.
00:44:38.000 Oliver Anthony not only hit number one, but he did it in spite of the fact the industry desperately tries to keep people like him out.
00:44:45.000 That's what John Rich was saying.
00:44:47.000 If he was signed to a label, they'd never let this song on the air.
00:44:50.000 No way.
00:44:50.000 That's how so many things people don't realize that a one-hit wonder is because their music they kept putting out got put on the shelf and didn't go anywhere.
00:44:50.000 No way.
00:44:57.000 That happens the same way.
00:44:59.000 This is just modern payola and that's already illegal.
00:45:01.000 We haven't caught up to streaming services yet.
00:45:03.000 Oh, right.
00:45:04.000 Yeah, so payola is basically pay-to-play.
00:45:06.000 Yeah.
00:45:07.000 It's illegal.
00:45:07.000 That's right.
00:45:07.000 It is illegal.
00:45:08.000 You said when you had radios, you get a thing that's so-called a mechanical, meaning the rotation of a record.
00:45:13.000 But yeah, it's illegal and everything else except for streaming services.
00:45:16.000 But we'll get there, hopefully.
00:45:17.000 So there are people who want to go and go to a radio station and say, we'll give you X amount of dollars if you just put our song on.
00:45:23.000 That's illegal.
00:45:24.000 Oh, but now because they can buy the song and it counts for 150 streams, is that the problem?
00:45:29.000 Uh, yes, but it's not illegal on streaming services.
00:45:31.000 Oh, right, right, right, right, right.
00:45:32.000 So that's why it's still illegal to have like, you have what it's called, basically a playlister, who's a person that works for Spotify in this case.
00:45:38.000 And then they choose if your song makes these playlists.
00:45:40.000 I'm sure if you use Spotify, you know what the playlist, if your song makes these playlists, they're like old radio DJs.
00:45:44.000 They were the people who select the track to play the songs.
00:45:46.000 It's the same thing as payola.
00:45:47.000 It's just a modern day payola that hasn't Basically, it's like this.
00:45:52.000 You know that some celebrities are so big, their songs are going to get played no matter what.
00:45:58.000 So let's say you're a major label, and you've got a new band coming out, and you want to make money.
00:46:02.000 Like, hey, look, we spent $100,000 on this album.
00:46:05.000 We need to make that money back.
00:46:07.000 You can go to these platforms and just be like, hey, we are submitting this through the normal legal channels.
00:46:13.000 Please add this to your digital streaming playlist in this genre.
00:46:18.000 These companies know.
00:46:19.000 If they say no, then what happens is Major Label says, well, then I guess there's no real reason for us to keep, insert Major Label artist, playing on your platform.
00:46:29.000 And then they lose money if that... You've got Apple Music, you've got Tidal, you've got Spotify, you've got Pandora, you've got YouTube Music.
00:46:36.000 Imagine if any one of them lost a major star.
00:46:39.000 That would be like a form of blackmail if the label said to Spotify, we're going to say it.
00:46:43.000 Yeah, it's still unspoken.
00:46:45.000 Didn't Taylor Swift pull her music from some platform once?
00:46:47.000 She was on Spotify for a long time.
00:46:50.000 And I wonder what that was really about.
00:46:52.000 I don't know.
00:46:52.000 Seriously.
00:46:53.000 She wrote a big letter about it.
00:46:54.000 Yeah, she did like re-release her music, wasn't that the case?
00:46:57.000 Well, the Spotify thing, she said she didn't like the terms and that she felt like they weren't paying artists enough, and I haven't read it in a long time.
00:47:04.000 They don't.
00:47:04.000 So she pulled her music.
00:47:05.000 I'm sure she had her own specific reason why she was like, I'm personally not making enough money, but she represented it as like, I'm actually fighting for everybody.
00:47:13.000 Uh, and then the masters thing is something else, but... It is, it is crazy how little you make.
00:47:17.000 Like, it's the craziest thing.
00:47:18.000 It's, it's, people don't realize, you make almost nothing.
00:47:20.000 Even on really big songs that get money and you were part of, you were on, like, the people, like, you see a lot of who wrote the song, whatever, you get included on that, and you make nothing.
00:47:27.000 I made nothing when I was working for them.
00:47:28.000 I mean, not enough to survive and make a life, so...
00:47:31.000 Yeah, we put out a handful of songs, and we, with the few songs we put out, we experimented with different ways to promote and different ways to, like, how we tell people what to do.
00:47:42.000 So with, like, one song, we said, hey, everyone, just go and buy the song.
00:47:45.000 And then we charted really well.
00:47:46.000 Then with another song, we're like, hey, everyone, go listen to the song.
00:47:49.000 Listens.
00:47:50.000 Don't do anything.
00:47:51.000 You make zero dollars, you get nothing, and then you are just... It doesn't even matter.
00:47:56.000 You can get two million views, plus sales, and then three million views, and the sales... You chart, you make money, streams don't do anything for anybody.
00:48:05.000 Nope.
00:48:05.000 And charting is sort of make or break, I would assume, for music.
00:48:08.000 Like, that's how you get- Like, what is- If you wanted to support a local artist, is it better to buy their song on iTunes, or is it better to listen to them a hundred times on- Well, here- I'll simplify it for you.
00:48:18.000 Are you- Is Oliver Anthony better off with you handing him one dollar, or you taking- you know, giving him nothing?
00:48:25.000 I mean, I would assume it's better to hand him a dollar, but I guess what I'm coming up to is, is it imperative that artists then go on tour?
00:48:32.000 Like, if you want to make it as a musician, what do you need to do?
00:48:36.000 Like, for Oliver Anthony, if he peaks at Billboard, you know, number one, that's awesome.
00:48:41.000 But then if he wants to continue, but like, he can't survive at number one.
00:48:46.000 Like, is that going to make him a living?
00:48:48.000 He's going to have to tour.
00:48:49.000 Like, what are the next steps?
00:48:51.000 That's that's like the thing if you if you make money like the idea and the argument for streaming is that you don't make money on the stream streaming is essentially you're Advertising you're like you're merchant.
00:48:58.000 They're not really you make money from merchandising selling stuff Vinyls or clothing or whatever and you make money from touring which is going on tour to go in different states And then make money on the tickets coming in you don't really make money on the actual music So if he wants to be he's a millionaire overnight.
00:49:11.000 Yeah, not not because of any of these stupid deals.
00:49:13.000 He shouldn't take them but because I imagine all of these festivals are going to be like, we got to get this guy.
00:49:20.000 He's got the biggest song in the world.
00:49:22.000 And right now he can charge whatever he wants because people want to see him perform and he deserves it.
00:49:28.000 This is natural talent breaking through the machine.
00:49:32.000 I want you to imagine this.
00:49:34.000 There is a bunch of angry suits waving woke signs and this guy runs full speed with a sledgehammer, spins around and throws it into a giant TV they're all watching.
00:49:46.000 That's a nice visual.
00:49:47.000 People keep saying to play it.
00:49:49.000 In the comments.
00:49:50.000 No, yeah.
00:49:50.000 People should go to the actual thing and listen to it.
00:49:52.000 version of Sound of Freedom. We are breaking through the industry. People keep saying to play it in the comments.
00:49:57.000 Well, but we can't. I'm not gonna. People should listen to his song. No, yeah, people should go to the actual thing.
00:50:01.000 You should go to iTunes right now and buy the song. Yeah.
00:50:04.000 Give the man a dollar.
00:50:05.000 Yeah, if you like it and you support the music, go and buy it.
00:50:08.000 If you've already heard it and you liked it and you didn't go and buy it, like, what are you doing?
00:50:10.000 What do you guys think about now?
00:50:12.000 Because the age of the recording artists making a bunch of money is kind of waning.
00:50:16.000 You know, it used to be in the 1900s, it was like the only time in history that you'd be able to like...
00:50:22.000 Spend two hours recording a song and then you could sell it for a hundred million dollars over the next 80 years.
00:50:27.000 And now you don't control distribution really anymore.
00:50:29.000 It was a blip.
00:50:30.000 So like, is it smart to make your own music and just let people download it from your website?
00:50:34.000 From you for 99 cents.
00:50:36.000 All the money goes right to you.
00:50:37.000 Screw iTunes.
00:50:38.000 Screw Amazon.
00:50:39.000 That's what I would do.
00:50:39.000 That's what I would do.
00:50:40.000 But then you wouldn't chart?
00:50:42.000 Yeah, no charts.
00:50:42.000 Fuck all that.
00:50:43.000 That's your advertising.
00:50:44.000 All the prestige crap.
00:50:45.000 Just sell it directly to your people.
00:50:47.000 Yes, but.
00:50:47.000 That's what doing punk rock and dance is like.
00:50:49.000 I would say yes, but.
00:50:51.000 Obviously we want that, but for the time being, we want to take over the industry.
00:50:54.000 I want when young people are looking up to a musician because they want to be number one,
00:51:02.000 they don't see WAP. They see Rich Men North of Richmond.
00:51:05.000 This is culture changing. This is going to be inspirational for the younger generations.
00:51:11.000 This also...
00:51:12.000 You've got young people who are skewing conservative, these young men.
00:51:16.000 Sure, fine.
00:51:17.000 They're gonna go that direction no matter what.
00:51:19.000 Now all those grifters you don't like, this is how you force the grifters to get away from the weird garbage.
00:51:26.000 Grifters are not good people.
00:51:28.000 There are many of these people on the left, they accuse everyone on the right of being a grifter.
00:51:31.000 The right has its grifters.
00:51:32.000 They say whatever they have to say because it'll get them clicks, even when they're contradicting themselves.
00:51:37.000 One example is like, if I agree with someone on the left and say, hey, this person's right, they'll insult me anyway because the tribal position for cliques is, you must hate Tim Pool.
00:51:46.000 Those people will see this and think, am I on the wrong side of history?
00:51:50.000 Oh, I better agree with whatever they say so I can be on the right side of history.
00:51:54.000 That's why the left chants that or they scream that you're on the wrong side of history.
00:51:58.000 They want you to believe that a time will come where you will be ostracized.
00:52:02.000 But the reality is they will be ostracized.
00:52:05.000 They're being ostracized and they're losing their minds over it.
00:52:08.000 It's a good point, man.
00:52:09.000 There's something about following a crowd.
00:52:12.000 Crowd's not always right, but when a large number of people enjoy something, you might want to ask yourself, is there something to that?
00:52:19.000 For better or worse, you know, but I think that does wake a lot of people up.
00:52:23.000 Oh, someone, Jason Dixon said, there are a bunch of fake copies on iTunes.
00:52:26.000 So yes, make sure you go to iTunes and you find the actual song from Oliver Anthony.
00:52:31.000 And I'm going to say this, if he sells one million, Come on, a million people have heard this song already.
00:52:38.000 How do we get them to just buy it for a buck?
00:52:40.000 Because not only does that make our good friend Oliver Anthony over here a millionaire, not really, he'll probably end up getting, I think, like $690,000, then taxes come in, he might make half a million off it, but... We'll make him half a millionaire.
00:52:51.000 It will make the song platinum.
00:52:53.000 Good start.
00:52:53.000 Debut, solo, single writer, platinum song.
00:52:58.000 Get that little platinum single, you can hang up in his room, and then we can all talk about how we have decided to do these boycotts.
00:53:06.000 Buying the products of who we like, boycotting the products of who we don't like, supporting those who are challenging the industry, and then also I just want to point out, like, think about the lyrics of this song.
00:53:16.000 So actually, let me see if I have this one pulled up.
00:53:21.000 Where is it at?
00:53:24.000 The Rainn Wilson story.
00:53:25.000 Do we have that pulled up?
00:53:26.000 Oh, here we go.
00:53:26.000 We got it right here.
00:53:27.000 Let's talk about this.
00:53:28.000 From the post-millennial, multi-millionaire celebrity Rainn Wilson slammed for smearing Oliver Anthony over populist anthem.
00:53:35.000 I don't know that he really smeared him, but boy do I love this.
00:53:39.000 Rainn Wilson, you guys know him, he was in the office, right?
00:53:42.000 Yeah, he played Dwight Schrute.
00:53:43.000 That's right.
00:53:43.000 He said, if I were writing a song about rich men north of Richmond, I wouldn't talk about obese people on welfare, I'd sing about CEOs who make 400 times their average worker's salary, up from 50 times 30 years ago, and corporations that pay zero taxes in offshore tax shelters for billionaires.
00:53:59.000 Let me just pause right there.
00:54:00.000 And no one would listen to it, so... Rainn Wilson, you're an ultra-rich Hollywood celebrity type.
00:54:06.000 I don't think this song was written for you.
00:54:09.000 I think this song was written for the working class guy who's expressing this discontent with a broken system.
00:54:16.000 And guess what?
00:54:18.000 If he wrote the song as you described it, I don't think it'd be number one.
00:54:21.000 I don't think he'd have the biggest song in the world right now.
00:54:23.000 I don't think he'd have debuted as one of the only people ever to debut on their first ever single charting at number one.
00:54:30.000 Clearly, you are wrong.
00:54:32.000 I think that Chris Anthony, I'm gonna call him Oliver Anthony, that's his stage name.
00:54:36.000 Chris Lunford is his actual name.
00:54:38.000 But he mentions the Bureaucrats in that song at some point.
00:54:42.000 I don't remember.
00:54:42.000 The song's about him!
00:54:44.000 He also talks about people that are getting obese on on welfare, which is a phenomenal point because people you can buy Pepsi with food stamps you can buy candy and chocolate crappy crappy shit like that's so bad for people So so let me just point this out When Oliver Anthony says, you know, if you're 5 foot 3 and 300 pounds taxes should be buying your fudge rounds Rainn Wilson doesn't get this.
00:55:09.000 He is the fat Effeminate man with liberal sensibilities who's advocating for lazy individuals to leech off a system for which the working class work and pay for.
00:55:22.000 And it is the overwhelming majority of them who do it.
00:55:25.000 And when he says, yes, but if the billionaires paid their taxes, yes, well, if the billionaires paid their taxes, it would barely account for any of the tax base.
00:55:33.000 This is the lie that crackpots like Rainn Wilson and these other far-left extremists push to convince you to allow them to gut the system and steal from you.
00:55:42.000 It's the billionaires who are at fault.
00:55:44.000 Let's do the math.
00:55:45.000 If you were to tax... I love this meme.
00:55:48.000 If you taxed every billionaire at 100% and took all of their money, it would account for a very small percentage of the actual tax expenditures, and it would last you only a few months.
00:55:58.000 What really funds the system is that if you've got 300 million people, and you take a dollar from them every day, you get 300 million dollars per day.
00:56:08.000 So you're talking about a couple billion dollars per week, two points some odd.
00:56:13.000 You're talking about billions per month.
00:56:15.000 It doesn't matter how much in cash the billionaires actually have.
00:56:18.000 Most of their billionaire assets are in hard assets.
00:56:22.000 They can't actually liquefy, not easily.
00:56:25.000 Yeah, no, Oliver Anthony is correct.
00:56:27.000 He's sitting there saying his paycheck is almost nothing, the dollar's worthless, and there's some 5'3", 300-pound person eating fudge rounds off of his hard work and labor, and then Rainn Wilson's like, well, why aren't you complaining about billionaires?
00:56:40.000 Bro, Rainn, you are exactly what you describe.
00:56:45.000 It's the rich who are the problem.
00:56:46.000 Yes, you.
00:56:48.000 Ultra-wealthy, fat liberals voting to gut the salaries and the payments of the working class to then promise to ignorant, lazy people that if they keep voting for you, you'll give them free stuff.
00:57:02.000 It's wild to see people like Hasan Piker talking about what he would talk about.
00:57:05.000 Yeah, see him say the stuff he says and he's in a mansion in LA.
00:57:09.000 It's like, dude, come on.
00:57:12.000 I think that Oliver Anthony makes a phenomenal point talking about these people that are sick on welfare.
00:57:16.000 Not in maybe he's annoyed that he's paying for it, but also if we're going to fix society, it's going to be from the ground up.
00:57:22.000 And if people at the ground are sick, then they're not going to be able to fix society.
00:57:26.000 So it's a big problem.
00:57:27.000 Eat healthy, get your mind right, get your family right, then get your society right.
00:57:33.000 It's a system that perpetuates itself, though.
00:57:35.000 Imagine being on welfare again, eating food that makes you sick.
00:57:38.000 You then become dependent on the healthcare system.
00:57:42.000 I don't know.
00:57:44.000 It ripples out.
00:57:46.000 I don't know how literal that is so much as it seems to me like a metaphor.
00:57:50.000 Again, I haven't listened to the song, though.
00:57:51.000 Oh, you haven't heard it yet?
00:57:52.000 No.
00:57:53.000 I mean, it's fine.
00:57:54.000 It's short.
00:57:54.000 It's like two and a half minutes long or three minutes long.
00:57:58.000 I still think it's weird that he's like... If I were gonna write a song, I would write it completely different.
00:58:02.000 Then write the damn song!
00:58:03.000 Exactly!
00:58:04.000 If I was gonna be in a comedy, it would be way better than... I would've looked in a different direction than you looked, Rainn, in that one scene when you were talking to Jim.
00:58:11.000 I would've looked to the left.
00:58:12.000 And yeah, your posture was good, but it wasn't that good.
00:58:14.000 I would've had a little bit better posture.
00:58:16.000 Get out here.
00:58:16.000 I'm just kidding, man.
00:58:17.000 Help me make this movie, bro.
00:58:19.000 And get working out with Tim, because I love you, Rainn.
00:58:22.000 You're a spirit, man.
00:58:22.000 Come on.
00:58:23.000 Let's do this.
00:58:24.000 I think a lot of people have affection for Rainn Wilson because...
00:58:27.000 He was sort of unusual.
00:58:29.000 His character on The Office is such a big deal and so interesting.
00:58:32.000 And then he himself has kind of an unusual life.
00:58:35.000 But this like, well, if I had written a song, I would have attacked someone else and therefore he was bad.
00:58:40.000 Like, obviously, this song is popular and hitting a chord.
00:58:43.000 And if you want to write a different song, great, do it.
00:58:45.000 But don't tear down that the points that he's making out are resonating with people.
00:58:48.000 In fact, humble yourself and take away that people are really feeling a connection to this.
00:58:53.000 Maybe you are not aware of something that you should open your eyes to.
00:58:56.000 You know what, he's playing at Blue Ridge Rock Festival.
00:59:00.000 Oh, I think we went there last year.
00:59:02.000 That's a great festival.
00:59:03.000 That was one of the best I've ever been to.
00:59:05.000 Yo, those stages are awesome.
00:59:06.000 Slipknot, or not Slipknot, sorry, GWAR.
00:59:09.000 GWAR played.
00:59:10.000 Jack Black and Kyle Gass, Tenacious D, of course, Adelita Sway, they had us, got us backstage.
00:59:17.000 They tweeted out special guest Oliver Anthony.
00:59:19.000 Man!
00:59:19.000 Oh, it's gonna be lit, we should go.
00:59:21.000 When is that?
00:59:22.000 He's gonna have like, When he plays, that's going to have the biggest crowd.
00:59:25.000 I hope they headline that, because that'll be really good.
00:59:28.000 Wow.
00:59:28.000 Does he have a full band now?
00:59:29.000 I guess he's got to whip the band together.
00:59:31.000 I thought he put out a statement that was like, I am very excited about this.
00:59:34.000 Thank you for your support.
00:59:35.000 Also, I don't feel like I'm quite a good enough musician to take on all these things.
00:59:40.000 There's an element that he is trying to deliver at a maximum level to people who are supporting him, which I respect.
00:59:45.000 Same thing with merchandise, too.
00:59:46.000 He put out a tweet that essentially said, I want to do things right.
00:59:50.000 I don't want to just go to a chop shop.
00:59:53.000 Be patient.
00:59:53.000 And he's working with like a small family owned or like a local company.
00:59:57.000 Yeah, the music will stay on the test of time so there's no rush.
01:00:01.000 Yeah, it's cool.
01:00:01.000 Although the iron is hot right now so it's good to hit it.
01:00:04.000 You don't need to be the best musician ever.
01:00:07.000 This is the biggest mistake I hear from young musicians that I've experienced in my life and it actually translates to almost every industry.
01:00:14.000 So when I was younger, I played a show.
01:00:17.000 I played a bunch of shows.
01:00:18.000 I played a lot of shows actually.
01:00:20.000 And, uh, I'm, I was like middle, middle of the room, middle lineup, whatever it's called.
01:00:24.000 I wasn't the headliner.
01:00:25.000 I wasn't the opening act.
01:00:26.000 And I had the room packed.
01:00:28.000 It was like 150 seats or whatever.
01:00:30.000 Ended up making a couple hundred bucks.
01:00:32.000 I was super excited.
01:00:32.000 I was like, wow, most of the songs that I wrote were just like four chords, relatively basic.
01:00:38.000 And then I would sing.
01:00:40.000 The headlining performance was one of the most musically beautiful songs I've ever heard.
01:00:44.000 And people left the room.
01:00:45.000 Yeah, and the reason is, it's what we call music for musicians.
01:00:49.000 Oliver Anthony wrote music for people, and people want to hear that music.
01:00:54.000 And then you get these musical theorists who are like, here's how you write a good song, because they're trying to impress musicians.
01:01:01.000 That's cool, no, by all means, like, make the best music ever made.
01:01:04.000 Arpeggio to guitar, like really cool stuff, and really great lyrics that are really impactful.
01:01:10.000 Or write a song for the masses that the regular people resonate with that speaks to them and you are exactly what a good musician is.
01:01:18.000 I'll put it this way.
01:01:19.000 The best ice cream in the world.
01:01:21.000 What does that mean?
01:01:22.000 Does it mean like you should consume it because it's good for you or does it mean it tastes great?
01:01:27.000 Because this is what I would always tell my friends.
01:01:28.000 I knew a guy who played in a band and it was like weird experimental stuff.
01:01:32.000 And he kept talking about how big it was going to be and I was like, you know, do your thing, man.
01:01:35.000 But I'm just going to tell you, you're making like, you're making like, you know, asparagus ice cream.
01:01:40.000 Some people may really, really like asparagus ice cream.
01:01:42.000 It's experimental, man.
01:01:43.000 We've never seen this before.
01:01:45.000 Most people just want chocolate.
01:01:46.000 You know?
01:01:47.000 So, figure out what that mass appeal is if you're trying to be a famous musician.
01:01:51.000 If you're just trying to be a musician because you like music and you like the art, more power to you.
01:01:56.000 But don't act like you're gonna be the biggest.
01:01:58.000 This is what I would say to Oliver Anthony, man.
01:01:59.000 You are the best musician because you wrote a song that people want to hear.
01:02:03.000 It's all that matters.
01:02:04.000 It's also the way he sings it.
01:02:05.000 You mentioned resonation.
01:02:07.000 Like if it resonates, and that's a literal vibrational resonance that your voice produces in other human beings.
01:02:12.000 Like you vibrate their bones when they say, that song resonated with me.
01:02:16.000 It's because it actually literally produced resonation.
01:02:19.000 So the voice, I mean, it's so lost in the modern age, unfortunately, and I want it to be recovered.
01:02:23.000 This text communication crap.
01:02:26.000 I mean, it's, you want to talk about where, why is there a degradation in society in any way?
01:02:30.000 I think it stems from the people are texting each other.
01:02:32.000 What, 30 years ago we would only speak to each other about, so you could resonate.
01:02:36.000 There was a phone, and the phone loses a little bit, but I agree with you.
01:02:41.000 I think the internet has destroyed community.
01:02:45.000 Particular text chat.
01:02:46.000 Yes, right, with Twitter and short text too, because people in, I love this, TMZ, I think it was TMZ, no, somebody wrote an article where they were like, Kid Rock is slammed, might have been Newsweek.
01:02:57.000 Uh, over drinking Bud Light, and like with some even claiming it was treason, and then they showed my tweet of all-caps treason, which was clearly sarcasm.
01:03:07.000 No, Tim, you're always serious.
01:03:08.000 They don't care that it's sarcasm.
01:03:10.000 No.
01:03:11.000 They're just like, wow, we can sell this fake outrage.
01:03:14.000 Anybody who did a modicum, a small amount of research into my tweets and history knows that I did not literally think, like, there's...
01:03:23.000 I don't care.
01:03:24.000 Kid Rock drank this thing.
01:03:26.000 But they get clicks.
01:03:27.000 If Rainn Wilson had been able to say the words of what he typed, if there's a way that I would understand what he was saying and be like, no, I get it.
01:03:35.000 I get what you're saying.
01:03:36.000 Yeah.
01:03:36.000 And it would even be inspirational for Oliver Anthony to hear him say those words out loud when in text, it just looked like whiny bitch text.
01:03:42.000 I think text can be sort of disruptive to the way flow or intonation would deliver a message.
01:03:50.000 I will say in defense of writing, there are times in our history where we've relied on letters and written communication.
01:03:57.000 Because you knew that you wouldn't get the speed that we now have, you put a lot more thought into it, right?
01:04:03.000 Like think of like some of the best love letters written of all time or poetry or things that we did in the past.
01:04:10.000 I mean, even like the Federalist Papers, right?
01:04:12.000 People spent time thinking about what they were writing in a way that we don't do now because everything is so fast.
01:04:18.000 Not that Twitter can't be incredibly effective for delivering messages, but it's just a different approach to something that we have become accustomed to.
01:04:26.000 I was chatting with my girlfriend, and there was a day that we were having just kind of a subtle argument or whatever, and we were texting.
01:04:34.000 And I normally will not text anything.
01:04:36.000 If there's a problem emotionally, it's verbal, or we just, I'll peacefully, you know, I'll wait until I see you and talk to you about it.
01:04:43.000 But anyway, we typed, and then days went by, things were resolved, and I went back in that chat, and for whatever reason, I saw the old messages, and it started to work me up again.
01:04:54.000 Out of context, it was the past, it has no place in my memory anymore, we already resolved it, but it's still there in text.
01:05:00.000 And I'm reading it and thinking, oh, did she mean that when she typed it?
01:05:04.000 Well, and these other emotions, I'm like, what am I doing?
01:05:06.000 Because you've resolved the argument and you have to let it go.
01:05:08.000 Yeah, it should have been like a memory of a communication.
01:05:11.000 It should be gone in my memory now, but because it's literally in text, I still have a copy of it.
01:05:16.000 That's unnecessary and probably very, very bad for brain.
01:05:19.000 I've heard other couples say that when they have a problem, they like to, I knew this one couple that would email each other and be like, when I talk to you face to face, I'm kind of dominated by my emotion.
01:05:28.000 So when I can sit down and write you a thoughtful and respectful email about whatever's bothering me, I actually find it easier to resolve.
01:05:34.000 I think that, uh, There's a place for both, but I think we are going for speed and therefore stripping away kind of specific and descriptive language, which helps us understand what the message is behind our written word.
01:05:53.000 such an integral part of the development of society although I guess the written word for the most part now is very stunted and shortened but I think that probably the closest thing we have to any sort of really beautiful long-form thing written aside from obviously it's really like speeches that are written like oratory things which people used to put a lot of time into those too.
01:06:14.000 But are ultimately meant to be spoken.
01:06:16.000 Right.
01:06:17.000 When was writing invented?
01:06:18.000 6000 BC or something?
01:06:21.000 I don't know.
01:06:21.000 It's relatively new.
01:06:23.000 Writing?
01:06:25.000 I think the timeline kind of continues to expand.
01:06:28.000 You know, they find some... Because a lot of the materials they used for writing were, you know... They disappear, yeah.
01:06:36.000 And this says four different periods over 3,400 B.C.
01:06:39.000 Mesopotamia happened again in Egypt in 3,200, China in 1,200, so only 3,400 B.C.
01:06:45.000 But then how far back does it go that we don't have evidence of it?
01:06:48.000 But also, what's their definition of writing?
01:06:50.000 Could it be, like, that someone drew a circle on the ground once to reference something?
01:06:56.000 And that is writing.
01:06:56.000 I think it's a language, when there's language involved.
01:06:58.000 Like, this is cuneiform.
01:06:59.000 And that's when they say, okay, now you can... Like, if you were explaining to someone a thing you saw, and then you made a symbol that represented, like, a tree to explain tree, you've begun the process of writing.
01:07:09.000 But would a random person who comes across it and sees it be able to translate it?
01:07:12.000 That's the question.
01:07:14.000 Let's jump to more news, my friends.
01:07:16.000 Now we'll get into the big breaking story from today.
01:07:18.000 Fulton County sets Trump's bond at $200,000.
01:07:21.000 The former president's legal team has reportedly accepted the bond.
01:07:25.000 Interesting.
01:07:26.000 Former president has received a bond amount of $80,000 for allegedly violating their RICO Act.
01:07:33.000 $60,000 for 6th count of criminal conspiracy, 30 blah blah blah, it's $200k, you get the point.
01:07:37.000 Trump may post bond as cash, though commercial surety, uh, through commercial surety, or through Fulton County Jail's 10% program per the Monday bail posting.
01:07:46.000 The defendant shall not violate the laws of this state, the laws of any other state, the laws of the United States of America, or any other local laws per consent bond order.
01:07:54.000 They want to lock him up.
01:07:56.000 That's, that's, that's where they're going towards.
01:07:59.000 And everybody, everybody keeps telling me like, oh it can't happen, oh it can't happen, and then it happens.
01:08:03.000 They arrested his lawyers.
01:08:05.000 But here's the bigger picture.
01:08:07.000 Trump's gonna win.
01:08:09.000 Trump can win.
01:08:10.000 I don't want to make a hard prediction.
01:08:12.000 But you've got a whole bunch of outlets now panicking over this.
01:08:14.000 I love this.
01:08:15.000 Colin Ruggs says, CNN warns viewers that Donald Trump has a real chance of winning the general election against Joe Biden.
01:08:20.000 Can you hear the panic?
01:08:22.000 Let me play this clip from CNN for you guys.
01:08:24.000 University, 53% of the Fox News poll. Look at where DeSantis is in all these polls.
01:08:29.000 Look how far back he is. He doesn't crack 20% in any of them. So in Iowa you have
01:08:36.000 that 20 plus point lead for Donald Trump. That's actually smaller than the lead we
01:08:40.000 see nationally where we see these leads of 35, 40, near 50 points in this
01:08:46.000 particular case. Of course the primary is one thing.
01:08:49.000 If Trump wins the primary, can he go on and win the general election?
01:08:53.000 And we've had three polls that have come out over the last week here.
01:08:56.000 And I want you to take a look at how close this race is at this particular point.
01:09:00.000 Granted, the general election is over a year away.
01:09:03.000 The largest lead for Joe Biden is just three points within the margin of error.
01:09:07.000 No clear leader.
01:09:09.000 Look at these.
01:09:10.000 One point.
01:09:11.000 One point.
01:09:12.000 If you go back at where we were at this point four years ago, Joe Biden's lead was high single digits to low double digits.
01:09:19.000 This is significantly closer than where we were four years ago.
01:09:22.000 So this idea that Donald Trump can't win the general election, I want you to lose that idea.
01:09:27.000 This race is very, very close.
01:09:29.000 And Donald Trump is polling better right now than basically at any point during the entire 2020.
01:09:35.000 And I got one more big piece of news for all of you.
01:09:39.000 Remember that news story that came out that said 12th grade males are skewing conservative?
01:09:45.000 What age is 12th grade?
01:09:48.000 18!
01:09:49.000 And what is the voting age in this country?
01:09:51.000 It happens to be 18.
01:09:52.000 Hey, so how many of these, I'll put it this way.
01:09:55.000 Young Trump supporters, they will, not all of them, but Trump supporters famously say they'll walk barefoot over broken glass to vote for Trump.
01:10:05.000 Young Democrats won't do that.
01:10:07.000 They'll tweet, they'll get likes, and then when it comes to actual voting, they'll be like, I don't actually care, I just wanted likes on social media.
01:10:13.000 I think what you'll see here is Trump's gonna get a decent enough boost that is being missed in the polls among young conservative men between the ages of 18 and 21.
01:10:23.000 These polls from CNN are missing these individuals right now.
01:10:26.000 They're not polling them.
01:10:27.000 Let's take into consideration the polling errors in the past, skewing towards Democrat.
01:10:32.000 That means Trump's probably up three or four points.
01:10:35.000 Then add in the young vote that they're probably discounting, which is probably gonna vote for Trump.
01:10:39.000 I think Trump's on track to win as of right now.
01:10:42.000 We will see.
01:10:42.000 There's a lot that can change.
01:10:44.000 We are an eternity away in political time, but I definitely see a clear path for Trump to win this one.
01:10:50.000 And this narrative that keeps coming out from the Never Trumpers, who won't stop whinging, and it's so annoying, that Trump can't win, just, I gotta tell you, man, You know, with all due respect to Bill Mitchell for coming on the Culture War and debating, I had to unfollow him right away.
01:11:04.000 I didn't follow him before, but I was like, you know, he came here, he made his case, I agree with some of the points he made about DeSantis, I'm gonna follow him.
01:11:10.000 And then after, like, a couple hours, I was like, I have to unfollow him.
01:11:14.000 Because it's the most vile and ignorant nonsense I've ever seen.
01:11:18.000 You can make a really good point about DeSantis being younger and having tact and succeeding, while admitting his campaign is not doing well, and still make your argument why I think he'd probably be better in the general, Bill does not do that.
01:11:30.000 So I'm just like, I can't... The anti-Trump on the left are actually less vocal, as it seems right now, than the anti-Trump in the Republican Party.
01:11:40.000 You know, I think a lot of the anti, I mean, um, there's still plenty in the, like the establishment and the media.
01:11:45.000 I think a lot of it has dissipated quite a bit.
01:11:47.000 I've really, I observe a lot of rhetoric from, you know, leftist circles and a lot of them are kind of saying, you know, I'm, I'm just not going to vote for Biden again.
01:11:55.000 You know, I held my nose and did it and I'm just not going to do it.
01:11:58.000 I think it might not necessarily be a huge shift of the youth towards like in favor of Trump, but I think it's going to be a pull away from trying to support.
01:12:08.000 It reminds me of that.
01:12:09.000 They can't stand.
01:12:10.000 I can only remember this reference vaguely, but that Simpsons episode where Abe Simpson was trying to date that old lady, and then she was potentially going to date some other guy.
01:12:19.000 And then in the end, he was like, pick me, who do you want?
01:12:21.000 She's like, I don't want either of you.
01:12:22.000 And he goes, good enough for me!
01:12:23.000 And so I feel like there's a lot of Biden voters who are going to be like, like you said, I held my nose, I voted for Biden, but this time I don't want any of them.
01:12:31.000 And the Trump base is going to be like, that works for us!
01:12:33.000 Yes, don't vote Democrat!
01:12:34.000 That's what I'm saying.
01:12:35.000 I think that that will end up being a larger impact than they imagine.
01:12:40.000 Although, not to go on to a totally different subject, but they do seem to be ramping up COVID just in time.
01:12:46.000 I honestly, I had never observed this for myself before.
01:12:48.000 Again, I was a little detached and ignorant for most of my life.
01:12:51.000 And so I've always kind of heard that, you know, it's election season, something's ramping up.
01:12:55.000 And it's turned out to be true.
01:12:58.000 Yeah, I think until you start following politics regularly, you think, oh, they just say that.
01:13:03.000 That's crazy.
01:13:03.000 But it is a consistent pattern that something happens.
01:13:06.000 And I'm not surprised that COVID is rearing its ugly head, strangely enough, right now.
01:13:11.000 Here come the lockdowns.
01:13:11.000 Here comes the mail-in voting.
01:13:13.000 Here's all the stuff.
01:13:15.000 Oh, yeah.
01:13:16.000 We'll see if the lockdown stuff actually comes into full swing.
01:13:18.000 There's a couple hospitals in upstate New York that have brought back the mask mandates.
01:13:22.000 Portland apparently never got rid of all of their mask policies.
01:13:25.000 Nobody just nobody cares, which is actually a good sign.
01:13:28.000 I wonder how many places there are like that, where all of it's still technically there and people are just ignoring it.
01:13:32.000 But in some ways, do you think that would be a problem?
01:13:34.000 Because when they decide it's bad, they'll say, oh no, we have to enforce this.
01:13:38.000 We never took it down and so actually you're in violation, here's a fine, here's whatever.
01:13:41.000 I don't think so.
01:13:43.000 I feel like you do need to see it through.
01:13:45.000 We should repeal all the mass stuff.
01:13:46.000 It's good that we're ignoring it, but we should completely undo it.
01:13:48.000 We need to find out where it is and advocate to, you know, get it down.
01:13:54.000 I guess I couldn't come up with a word for it.
01:13:58.000 Let me show you this tweet while we have a little gap here.
01:14:01.000 Michael Tracy tweeted, It's silly to declare as foreordained truth that Trump can't win when the official losing margin in 2020 was 42,918 votes in three states.
01:14:13.000 Trump actually outperformed polls in 2020 to a greater extent than 2016, and Biden's support in 2024 is much likelier to shrink than grow.
01:14:23.000 He's completely correct.
01:14:23.000 This guy doesn't like Trump.
01:14:24.000 Not a Trump supporter, but he's right.
01:14:26.000 Trump barely won in 2016.
01:14:28.000 The Trump supporters like to say, no, it was a major electoral victory.
01:14:32.000 He had tons of votes.
01:14:33.000 No, no, no.
01:14:34.000 It was something like 70,000.
01:14:35.000 What was it?
01:14:36.000 Like 80,000 votes or something in three states.
01:14:38.000 In 2020, he only lost by 42,918 in three states.
01:14:43.000 Trump does not need to recover that many more votes.
01:14:46.000 When you look at how bad Biden is doing, Afghanistan really screwed over Biden.
01:14:51.000 Freaked everybody out.
01:14:52.000 And now where the economy is at?
01:14:55.000 I'm not saying people are going to vote for Trump.
01:14:57.000 They're going to be like, I voted for Biden.
01:14:58.000 That was a mistake.
01:14:59.000 I'm voting Trump.
01:15:00.000 But if Trump gets the same 75 million votes, he wins.
01:15:04.000 They don't have the lockdowns anymore.
01:15:06.000 And there's going to be a lot of apathetic voters who are like, I just don't care anymore.
01:15:09.000 Yeah, and I think there are a lot of mainstream institutions that are aware of this.
01:15:15.000 The other day when it was the anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act, I felt like NPR talked about nothing but because they're trying so desperately to say, this has been a good presidency, good things have happened, we've passed great policies, please stop questioning us, please stop doubting us.
01:15:29.000 It's just not there.
01:15:30.000 If you have to have a full-fledged radio campaign all day long, then obviously I don't think it's speaking for itself.
01:15:36.000 It's about to say something.
01:15:37.000 No, no, go ahead.
01:15:38.000 No, it speaks for itself, though.
01:15:39.000 If you have to sit there and be like, no, look, no, look, it should just be pretty apparent.
01:15:44.000 You know, when I was making more money than I ever had in my life and then Trump did his, like, tax cuts where it affected my bottom line, you know, I noticed that immediately.
01:15:53.000 It was great.
01:15:54.000 That was the only thing I had friends who identify as like, you know, very left liberal be like, well, I guess this is good.
01:16:00.000 I got this extra money from Trump.
01:16:01.000 So, and then they never talked about it again.
01:16:04.000 And you love how they personified it as, you know, it was a cut for like, millionaires and billionaires.
01:16:09.000 Like, no, that was something for everyone, but they just got more of their own money to take home.
01:16:14.000 And I was at the point in time, I still had TDS.
01:16:16.000 So that was kind of... Can I ask who you voted for in 2020?
01:16:19.000 Did you vote for Biden?
01:16:21.000 Oh, in 2020?
01:16:22.000 No, I voted for Trump.
01:16:23.000 Oh, OK.
01:16:24.000 In 2016, I voted for Bernie in the primary, and then I voted for nobody.
01:16:29.000 Oh, yeah.
01:16:29.000 Because that's interesting, though.
01:16:30.000 I think there will be a lot of people who just will be like, I can't vote for Trump, but I don't want to vote for Biden.
01:16:34.000 I'm staying home.
01:16:35.000 Well, I think that's going to happen quite a bit here.
01:16:38.000 And I think that at the end of the day, for the most part, people are going to vote for whoever is the Republican nominee.
01:16:45.000 But I think on the left, you're going to see more people deviating to a third party candidate.
01:16:49.000 We can work with that.
01:16:51.000 Yes, definitely.
01:16:51.000 I think something that gives me pause, at least lately, we've had James Kluge on the show before and he works with Lisa Reynolds right now.
01:16:57.000 He has been interviewing people on the Santa Monica boardwalk and the attitude in 2020 was very much anti-Trump.
01:17:02.000 The attitude in 2020 is very much anti-Joe Biden, generally speaking.
01:17:06.000 Not as much like, oh, I'm going to go and vote to get back at Trump, but like, I'm, I can't do this anymore.
01:17:11.000 Like this is, this is cutting into my bottom line.
01:17:13.000 It's cutting into my life.
01:17:14.000 You know, my business was shut down and I'm not going to vote for this.
01:17:16.000 It's been to the point where people are like openly saying like, yeah, I'm going to vote for Trump on the Santa Monica boardwalk.
01:17:21.000 Like that didn't used to be a thing and it is now.
01:17:22.000 So I feel like you're right.
01:17:23.000 Like a lot of people are just going to not, they don't have like that drive.
01:17:26.000 They've been at home, they've been working.
01:17:27.000 And so they don't have the drive to go and vote, you know, and actually go and do that.
01:17:30.000 Like they did in 2020 when that was just like, well, only you could think about, you know?
01:17:32.000 So I think it, I think we have, I just, just to be of my own two cents, I think we will be able to do a lot better just because people are not driven to go and vote right now.
01:17:40.000 I think that people really were paying attention a lot more to the mainstream media in 2020, which they were able to capitalize on too, because COVID, you know, everyone, I mean, they were putting up death tolls, like football scores or, and people were absolutely captivated by that.
01:17:53.000 They could not look away and they were locked in their homes in a lot of instances.
01:17:57.000 So they became like, I mean, we saw the absolute insanity surrounding Not Chris Cuomo, Governor Cuomo.
01:18:05.000 And, you know, I'm a Cuomo-sexual.
01:18:07.000 People were just... But they were going absolutely insane!
01:18:10.000 Now that you've said that, they can clip it, and they will put it on the internet for you.
01:18:15.000 Oh, well, great.
01:18:16.000 That's why you gotta be careful when you're quoting.
01:18:18.000 Oh, no, I mean, I've been through worse.
01:18:21.000 It'll be all right.
01:18:22.000 But people absolutely losing their minds and talking about how they had, you know, crushes on Anderson Cooper and Governor Cuomo and because everyone was just in their four walls.
01:18:33.000 Remember the Q-tips?
01:18:34.000 Oh, yeah.
01:18:34.000 Oh, my God, the swab thing.
01:18:35.000 Cuomo brothers with the giant Q-tips.
01:18:38.000 My favorite was when the nurses were dancing on the graves of the COVID dead.
01:18:41.000 Remember that?
01:18:42.000 Oh, yeah.
01:18:42.000 My favorite was when Andrew Cuomo did a bunch of press conferences and he wore a polo and you could see his nipple piercings.
01:18:46.000 That was such a fun COVID moment.
01:18:48.000 Jeez.
01:18:48.000 What a crazy time we all live through.
01:18:50.000 Are you serious?
01:18:51.000 Yes, look it up, there are screenshots.
01:18:52.000 Wow, I'm not gonna do that, but okay.
01:18:53.000 The corporate press got really mad at me when I said the nurses were dancing on the graves of the COVID dead.
01:18:58.000 I remember that.
01:18:59.000 They were.
01:18:59.000 Because I think that strikes straight through, it was an arrow right through their chain mail, just ripped right through, it found that point of entry, right in, it's that meme of the knight with the thin, you know, he's got the thin strip in his helmet and the arrow right into it, because They're claiming, oh, so many people are dying.
01:19:18.000 It's a tragedy.
01:19:19.000 And these nurses are just trying to have fun.
01:19:20.000 And I'm like, yeah, you see the one where the nurses were carrying the fake dead body and dancing?
01:19:24.000 Yeah.
01:19:25.000 They're dancing on graves.
01:19:26.000 And they're like, no, no, they're not.
01:19:29.000 Like, that's I'm like, are you kidding?
01:19:30.000 there are people who are like George Alexopoulos, best artist
01:19:34.000 on the internet, had this really great comic where it's a guy
01:19:39.000 like someone's like looking through the glass at their like dying loved one and then there's nurses dancing behind them.
01:19:44.000 And then he compares it to other situations where it's like
01:19:46.000 people in war like soldiers are dancing and filming themselves
01:19:49.000 as they blow people up and stuff like that.
01:19:51.000 We see that. So I want to be careful when I say this.
01:19:55.000 Because I really, deeply and truly respect nurses in particular.
01:19:59.000 However, there's a bit of a meme slash stereotype of the mean girl from your high school becoming nurses.
01:20:06.000 And there are plenty of news stories.
01:20:08.000 One recently, and I can't remember the name or anything about it, but it was a nurse who she had been responsible for the deaths of seven babies.
01:20:15.000 Oh yeah, this is Letby in the UK, I just heard about this today.
01:20:19.000 Right, and there's this, you can play God in some of their minds, you know, you hold the kind of- Lucy Letby.
01:20:28.000 Seven babies.
01:20:29.000 What did she do that killed the babies?
01:20:31.000 She injected air into their bloodstreams, or she overfed them, or there's all kinds of stuff.
01:20:36.000 She was accused- It's dark.
01:20:38.000 And why?
01:20:40.000 There's a level of attention that comes with losing a baby that she seemed to have this pathological addiction to.
01:20:48.000 She was killing her own babies?
01:20:49.000 No, she was a neonatal nurse.
01:20:51.000 And so it's babies that are already at high risk.
01:20:53.000 They're already medically fragile.
01:20:55.000 You know, there was, I think, three sets of twins because twins are often born early.
01:20:59.000 One set of triplets that were involved in this.
01:21:01.000 Total is 17 children.
01:21:02.000 She was ultimately convicted of murdering seven and attempted murder of six more.
01:21:09.000 It's just awful.
01:21:10.000 And, you know, the prosecution and the defense or prosecution during trial presented this Maybe she wanted to play God.
01:21:16.000 Maybe there was a doctor that it seems like maybe she had some emotional connection to and that when they'd be like, oh, I'm treating a baby that I'm caring for just died.
01:21:25.000 Maybe pay more attention.
01:21:27.000 That's so psychotic.
01:21:28.000 You know, it just makes no sense at all.
01:21:30.000 It's there's real darkness in the world.
01:21:31.000 And the judge, you know, there's a lot of like Dr. Kevorkian, like there's a lot of like psychos in medicine.
01:21:38.000 And you have to really think about those kind of things.
01:21:40.000 I'm not like against the death penalty wholly.
01:21:42.000 And I would support it for someone that murders children.
01:21:45.000 Yeah, especially- I would hope you would.
01:21:47.000 Children she's supposed to be caring for.
01:21:49.000 That's like the creepiest thing.
01:21:51.000 Now hold on there a minute.
01:21:53.000 I would be in favor of a death sentence for a wide variety of very serious offenses.
01:21:59.000 People who kill kids, people who exploit and traffic kids, child traffickers like all the ones you saw in Sound of Freedom, death penalty.
01:22:06.000 My only problem with it procedurally is I don't trust Kamala Harris.
01:22:13.000 Right.
01:22:13.000 To be honest, when she tells me that I should agree with putting someone to death.
01:22:18.000 Right.
01:22:18.000 Yeah.
01:22:18.000 Like, if there was... It's really tough.
01:22:23.000 I won't support the system.
01:22:24.000 But to be fair, in the instance where you catch someone in the act, and you're with a crowd of people, and they were like, everyone standing before us just watched this man try to sell a child.
01:22:35.000 Then I'd be like, I don't need to trust anybody but myself watching the guy do it.
01:22:41.000 And then the guy says, I did it and I'll do it again.
01:22:42.000 If you let me go, I'd be like, okay, well, that's a different story.
01:22:46.000 My only concern is the instances where the person's desperately begging, I didn't do this, you're the wrong guy, and it's a Kamala Harris type being like, I don't care!
01:22:53.000 And I'm like, ugh.
01:22:55.000 Yeah, it's really hard.
01:22:57.000 I mean, I think the death penalty is extremely serious.
01:22:59.000 This case was in the UK, so Lucy Letby got sentenced to, I think I call it full life, like she'll spend- Right, full term.
01:23:06.000 Full term, she'll spend a complete life in prison for each one of the counts she was convicted for murder for.
01:23:13.000 But, you know, so some of the children did survive these attempted killings and some of them are severely disabled, you know, they're six or eight years old because these happened between 2015 and 2016.
01:23:24.000 There are times that, you know, I would not want to be on that jury because it's so awful and I don't know that the death penalty was actually on the table because it happened in the UK.
01:23:34.000 The point of all that, though, is that when you're talking about the visual of the COVID nurses holding those, I think about people like Lucy Letby.
01:23:41.000 Thank you for knowing her name and more details, because you know more than I do.
01:23:44.000 I just wrote about it today for Timcast News.
01:23:46.000 You guys should check it out.
01:23:47.000 Go read it!
01:23:48.000 But when I think about people like that, and you think about the different stories of just really, really pathologically Messed up people taking a job in medicine where it comes out later that they were playing God or they were messing with people's lives because they thrived.
01:24:05.000 I think about the dancing nurses and how it was all about TikTok clout.
01:24:10.000 Again, I had to attend my step-grandfather's funeral on Skype because they wanted to I had friends who were not allowed to be with their dying parents until the very last moment when it was over.
01:24:24.000 And you think, what would it have been like if you were allowed to have loved ones by your side?
01:24:28.000 Nothing makes me, I don't get angry about a lot, but that makes me very angry.
01:24:33.000 It's really hard.
01:24:34.000 It makes me very angry indeed.
01:24:35.000 If a medical, that they could experiment on the human population, that there'd be like medical tyrannists that you would, who, our government, like our National Guard is here to protect us from psycho doctors trying to experiment on our children.
01:24:49.000 Yeah, they've done it before!
01:24:50.000 They do that to our military!
01:24:52.000 I mean, they make them the guinea pig for all kinds of things.
01:24:54.000 And they've done it with, like, literal people.
01:24:56.000 Like, remember, it's the thing where they infected, I forget who it was, but they gave people syphilis back in the day.
01:25:02.000 Tuskegee.
01:25:03.000 Tuskegee, that's right.
01:25:04.000 So they've done it before.
01:25:05.000 There's president, they've done it before.
01:25:07.000 Yeah.
01:25:08.000 I think the strange thing about the dancing nurses is that they were told by culture, you guys are the heroes and you don't do anything.
01:25:14.000 I'm sure there are nurses who gave great care during this time.
01:25:16.000 I think in the UK they would go outside and clap every day.
01:25:18.000 Yeah.
01:25:18.000 Can you imagine?
01:25:19.000 Some cities ring bells and stuff.
01:25:20.000 That's crazy.
01:25:20.000 But, you know, how can you stand there and make a TikTok while knowing that someone who is suffering in the room next to you is not allowed to have visitors?
01:25:28.000 Like, I don't know what it's like to work in a hospital and I can't Imagine what the stress is like.
01:25:34.000 On the other hand, I can say that you probably could tell that was wrong.
01:25:38.000 You could tell that you were in the wrong being able to take time to dance for this apparent, you know, tragedy while someone is actually suffering.
01:25:47.000 I'm just trying to find the G Prime 85 comic and I'm just laughing at all of them as I go through them all.
01:25:55.000 He's so talented.
01:25:56.000 I have a lot of friends who are first responders and do I mean they like are the first witnesses to some of the most horrific stuff you'll ever see and there is definitely a stereotype of having like dark sense of humor that really anyone else would probably find abhorrent but you know that's how you cope with those sort of things you see a lot of that with like police officers too that again respond to like fires and crime scenes and things like that and I think that Dancing to cope through your good time on TikTok doesn't quite resonate the same as like, you know, someone telling maybe a little bit of an off-color joke, but you know that they've seen things that you would never want to see.
01:26:29.000 I don't know.
01:26:30.000 I think people have this ability to like turn off their empathy when it comes in regards to another person that's pissed you off.
01:26:36.000 They get to the point and you're like, you know what?
01:26:38.000 I don't even care anything anymore about that person.
01:26:40.000 A bug that you're about to kill, sometimes I'll get emotional, like, I'm about to slay this bug, and then I'll just be like, hold on a second.
01:26:46.000 It's a bug.
01:26:47.000 And then I'm like, I have no compassion.
01:26:48.000 Zero.
01:26:49.000 And I feel like people went with that towards people with COVID, and during the lockdowns and all the shutdowns, they were like, they are filthy, they are dirty, they are other.
01:26:57.000 Well, I wonder if it's they turn to like, well, I'm getting affirmation on TikTok and I need this right now because I'm doing there's a there was a prioritization of self over service.
01:27:07.000 And of course, you have to think about your own needs in some regard.
01:27:10.000 But it makes me think about I don't know if you guys have listened to it, but the New York Times just did that.
01:27:14.000 I think it's a five episode podcast called The Retrievals.
01:27:16.000 And it's about a woman, a nurse who worked at a fertility clinic attached to Yale, the Yale University Health System.
01:27:23.000 And she Swapped fentanyl, which is given to women when they are having an egg retrieval, for saline because she was apparently addicted to fentanyl.
01:27:32.000 And so the women went through these extremely, I mean you don't get prescribed fentanyl for nothing, these procedures with no painkiller.
01:27:39.000 And while they were like, it was like 70 of them in total, while they were like writhing in pain on the table, doctors were like, this is weird, this doesn't usually happen.
01:27:46.000 Were they like under?
01:27:48.000 I mean, anesthetics affect different people differently, and there's another sedative that goes with it, but a lot of them were just awake and, like, saying, like, I could drive home right now.
01:27:55.000 I'm in so much pain, but I am not in any way medicated.
01:27:58.000 I got it.
01:27:58.000 You got it.
01:27:59.000 It's, uh, here we go.
01:28:00.000 Yeah, so this is from G Prime.
01:28:02.000 It says, I'll miss you, Dad.
01:28:03.000 I only wish.
01:28:04.000 Do you want to switch to the full view so we can see the whole thing?
01:28:06.000 There you go.
01:28:07.000 And then the woman's crying.
01:28:09.000 I only wish that I could have held your hand one last time.
01:28:11.000 And that's all the doctors dancing.
01:28:13.000 There's a bunch of them actually.
01:28:14.000 So this one is a plague doctor coming into a house.
01:28:17.000 And there's like a woman and someone dying.
01:28:19.000 And the woman's, you know, got the plague.
01:28:21.000 And then the plague doctors all start dancing.
01:28:23.000 And then this particularly brutal one where soldiers are rushing into a field.
01:28:27.000 There's an explosion.
01:28:28.000 I'm hit, medic!
01:28:30.000 And then they all start dancing.
01:28:32.000 The nurses dancing was the most disgusting and vile thing I have ever seen.
01:28:35.000 I like the plague doctor more.
01:28:37.000 The plague doctors look like they're in some sort of musical.
01:28:39.000 Yeah it does.
01:28:41.000 The nurses dancing was the most disgusting and vile thing I have ever seen.
01:28:46.000 Yeah, that's gross.
01:28:47.000 It was just, there's a video of these women and they're filming as the nurses are choreographing their dance,
01:28:53.000 and then you hear one woman go, is this why we can't get any help?
01:28:56.000 Yeah.
01:28:57.000 No joke.
01:28:59.000 Man, these people are disgusting and psychotic.
01:29:01.000 I'd love to interview one of those frontline nurses.
01:29:04.000 Because a lot of those people got caught up in the chaos and were like, well, all I'm going to do is my best.
01:29:09.000 I don't even know what that... And so they're just like... Not even?
01:29:11.000 Working 18-hour days and exhausted.
01:29:13.000 No, dude, dancing in the hallways?
01:29:14.000 Yeah, so they would break and then they'd do stuff like that.
01:29:16.000 Some of them would.
01:29:17.000 Some of them would be like, just to keep morale anywhere above zero.
01:29:21.000 But some of them might have been maliciously nuts.
01:29:24.000 I think it's just like...
01:29:25.000 I think they were all more obsessed with getting likes on social media than they were with actually dealing with the problem.
01:29:30.000 Because they were being, the mainstream, again, everyone was glued to the mainstream media.
01:29:33.000 The mainstream media was holding up the, if you say anything against the science, the doctors, the nurses, then you are a terrible person.
01:29:40.000 You're a hero!
01:29:41.000 You're a hero!
01:29:42.000 And all of these, again, like mean girls from high school are like, I'm a hero!
01:29:45.000 Let me put up my dance on TikTok!
01:29:47.000 I don't know.
01:29:47.000 People actually live in one of two worlds.
01:29:51.000 You need to imagine what it must be like to only watch CNN.
01:29:56.000 For real, or MSNBC.
01:29:57.000 So these people sitting in their cubicle-locked apartments in New York City, glued to MSNBC, think outside, the world's on fire.
01:30:07.000 People in rural areas.
01:30:08.000 We came to West Virginia during the lockdowns because New Jersey was getting bad because we knew that in West Virginia you could just live your life and do exactly what you were doing before.
01:30:17.000 But these people in New York thought the apocalypse was here.
01:30:19.000 And then you get these nurses Clearly the apocalypse wasn't that they have time, in any capacity, to choreograph dancing.
01:30:26.000 Vile, disgusting behavior.
01:30:28.000 I worked with someone who was living in DC but would occasionally have to drive out to West Virginia and he would always say, it's like a different world.
01:30:34.000 I'm, you know, driving only a couple hours and the attitude, this is like 2020, 2021, is just completely different.
01:30:42.000 In DC it's like everything is ending and in West Virginia it's like, Meh, you know, there might be some stuff you have to be aware of, but for the most part, life is continuing on.
01:30:52.000 No, I mean, I'm blessed to live in the state of Alabama.
01:30:56.000 I love Alabama, you know, but we're full, don't move here.
01:30:59.000 But it started to kind of peter out towards the end of the summer-ish, in most parts, you know, there's still definitely people still playing Pandemic otherwise.
01:31:10.000 Yeah, most people's mask, like, if you did, you know, go somewhere and you didn't want to put up a fire, like, whatever, sure.
01:31:16.000 Like, I had a, like, a mask that had penguins on it because I'd had it since, like, the previous, like, I guess, cold time.
01:31:22.000 And, like, it would be, like, July and I'd pull it.
01:31:24.000 But most people are, like, pulling these dirty, disgusting things out of their pocket and it's like, that's actually healthy!
01:31:29.000 No, I think the worst thing that I saw was a, it was a mask that was a scrunchie.
01:31:33.000 It goes into your hair, and you're like, your hair's disgusting.
01:31:35.000 I mean, it is.
01:31:36.000 For convenience.
01:31:37.000 Yeah.
01:31:38.000 What a crazy Amazon find that is.
01:31:39.000 That does literally nothing.
01:31:41.000 But it went viral on TikTok, and so everyone bought it.
01:31:44.000 It's like, that literally does nothing.
01:31:45.000 So congratulations.
01:31:46.000 It might even be doing harm.
01:31:47.000 Probably.
01:31:47.000 If there's fecal bacteria or recirculated bacteria and fungus and stuff on it.
01:31:52.000 You don't want to breathe it in.
01:31:54.000 Man, TikTok really benefited from the pandemic, you know?
01:31:56.000 It could sell anything.
01:31:58.000 Well, no, and I have noticed a shift of people calling things like pandemic behavior, you know, when you see someone on... I don't know if y'all are... I just scroll through it because it's fascinating, a little slice of humanity, but you'll see someone saying like, my pronouns are ZZMs or whatever, and everyone in the comments will be like, this is just pandemic behavior.
01:32:17.000 And I think that there's a bit of a shift in kind of the awareness like there's some self-awareness and like sentience almost kind of being developed.
01:32:24.000 Yeah, which I'm really I'm proud of you know, it's a good sign sign of life.
01:32:28.000 I've heard since the one-two punch of awakening during COVID one was the COVID itself where you're like, Okay, everyone's gonna die?
01:32:35.000 Okay, I'll shut down everything about my life.
01:32:37.000 Oh, everyone's not gonna die?
01:32:38.000 Okay, then what the fuck did we just do that for?
01:32:40.000 Then why can't I reopen?
01:32:41.000 And then the other thing is Epstein.
01:32:42.000 When it came out that Epstein was actually running kids, that just shocked people to awareness of how much things have been pulled over our eyes.
01:32:51.000 It has become so... It's crazy, because he was a convicted child predator at that point.
01:32:55.000 Yeah, even before.
01:32:56.000 That's the thing we don't realize.
01:32:57.000 I already had the church in like 2006.
01:32:58.000 And all these high-profile people were still hanging out.
01:33:00.000 They got a sweet art deal.
01:33:01.000 And they were like open because of COVID.
01:33:03.000 People's ears had been open to what was going on in schools, and then the Epstein crap came out.
01:33:06.000 I mean, that was around the same time.
01:33:07.000 Was that before COVID?
01:33:08.000 Shortly before COVID?
01:33:09.000 I think it was a year before, during?
01:33:11.000 Right before.
01:33:12.000 Right before, correct.
01:33:13.000 But it just, everybody was ready to really let that ruminate, what that means.
01:33:17.000 That's right.
01:33:18.000 Well, he was, you know, found dead.
01:33:21.000 He was found dead.
01:33:22.000 He was unalive, as the kids say.
01:33:25.000 His game ended in Minecraft before it happened, yeah.
01:33:27.000 We're gonna go to Super Chats, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, and head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member, And then you can hang out in our members-only uncensored show, which will be up at about 10 p.m., so in about a half an hour.
01:33:44.000 And if you've been a member for at least six months, or if you sign up right now at the $25 per month level, you can submit questions, and potentially be one of our callers.
01:33:51.000 We do about four or five every night.
01:33:53.000 Not everybody gets a chance to call in.
01:33:55.000 We try to find the most meaningful, and we try to give everybody a chance, but it's not always the easiest.
01:34:00.000 But you could potentially be one of our callers.
01:34:02.000 And it's one of the most fun parts of the night.
01:34:05.000 So, join us.
01:34:06.000 Let's read!
01:34:08.000 Marcus Bishop says, hello from Maine.
01:34:09.000 I hope your trip wasn't too bad here.
01:34:11.000 As soon as you leave the Portland area, you see less of the mask and lefty stuff and more of the Trump freedom stuff.
01:34:16.000 I had so much lobster and I have never had lobster that good.
01:34:20.000 Yeah.
01:34:21.000 It is the lobster capital of America.
01:34:22.000 It's it's.
01:34:24.000 You could just, you could eat it forever.
01:34:26.000 Did you bring that crab back from Maine?
01:34:28.000 No, no, the crab was from, is Maryland crab dip.
01:34:31.000 Oh.
01:34:31.000 Yeah, see we're in crab country in Maryland, that's no big deal.
01:34:34.000 You get some of the best crab ever out here.
01:34:35.000 It's the best.
01:34:36.000 But, uh, lobster up in Maine?
01:34:38.000 Dude.
01:34:38.000 Wow.
01:34:39.000 What'd you guys do in Maine?
01:34:40.000 Ate a lot of raw oysters and lobster.
01:34:42.000 Nice.
01:34:42.000 Just hang out by the water?
01:34:43.000 Yeah.
01:34:44.000 We went on a boat.
01:34:45.000 We rode a boat around.
01:34:46.000 That was pretty fun.
01:34:47.000 And we ate lobster rolls.
01:34:49.000 And then we had raw oysters and lobsters.
01:34:52.000 And I went to the local casino.
01:34:54.000 Nice.
01:34:54.000 That's what we do.
01:34:54.000 It's like throughout the day, it's like we get breakfast at a hot spot and, you know, nice little spot in Portland.
01:34:59.000 Then we go on a boat and we ride around.
01:35:01.000 Then we eat a bunch of lobster.
01:35:02.000 And then everyone's like, okay, we're tired.
01:35:03.000 Got to put the kids to bed.
01:35:04.000 And then, you know, for the last hour or two, we went and played at the casino and I got to experience their insane COVID rules, which give the player a massive edge and allow you to win ridiculous sums of money.
01:35:14.000 The poker casino games were always full.
01:35:17.000 And I'm assuming it's because all the players realize, yo, like, your edge is massive when you can see all the cards.
01:35:23.000 And the more players playing, the bigger your advantage gets.
01:35:26.000 And they just keep playing the game.
01:35:27.000 I don't know.
01:35:27.000 It's crazy.
01:35:28.000 I guess they make money on slots.
01:35:29.000 They didn't care.
01:35:30.000 But then the next day, we just went to downtown Portland, walked around, and I was very concerned.
01:35:37.000 About eating about a dozen raw oysters, and then ice cream, and then getting on a plane.
01:35:43.000 But everything was okay.
01:35:44.000 Nice.
01:35:44.000 Everything was fine.
01:35:46.000 So it was really cool though, the raw oysters, they have from all different, they're all different places, different sizes, different kinds.
01:35:52.000 I've never been big on oysters, but you put like horseradish cocktail and vinegar on it and lemon juice.
01:35:58.000 Yeah, it was really, really great.
01:35:59.000 Probably the healthiest I've eaten in a long time, to be honest.
01:36:01.000 Sounds good.
01:36:02.000 Chilled lobster with drawn butter.
01:36:05.000 When they're good, they're good.
01:36:05.000 When they're bad, they're terrible.
01:36:06.000 Like, it's the worst thing you've ever had.
01:36:09.000 I had one bad one, but it was only bad because it had shell bits stuck in it.
01:36:16.000 But I'm chewing and it's crunching, and then I'm like, okay, I can't eat this, and then I can't figure out, it's just everywhere.
01:36:21.000 The whole thing was covered in, so I just spit the whole thing out.
01:36:24.000 Sand and stuff.
01:36:25.000 It's bits of the shell again, and they're like, I can't eat it.
01:36:27.000 It's a sensory nightmare.
01:36:27.000 Every once in a while, those oysters will have a little stone in them, so be careful when you bite down.
01:36:31.000 Go slow, suss it out with your tongue, get all the stones.
01:36:35.000 Because what'll happen is an oyster will have a tiny little stone in the very center of its stomach sometimes, and they'll digest it.
01:36:39.000 Oysters have a lot of zinc, right?
01:36:41.000 They're supposed to be good for you because they give you a lot of zinc?
01:36:43.000 Yeah, it's funny that he mentions, though, what the superchatter said about how you leave Portland and then there's a bunch of Trump signs and everything out there.
01:36:49.000 That's exactly like Portland on the other side of the country.
01:36:51.000 So, interesting fact.
01:36:52.000 Yeah.
01:36:52.000 It's a lot like a lot of states.
01:36:54.000 We live in the big cities.
01:36:55.000 DynamiteChick said, Antifa set two cop cars on fire and vandalized a councilman's car in Asheville, North Carolina.
01:37:01.000 Please look into the story.
01:37:02.000 Who cares about a sign?
01:37:03.000 We have war.
01:37:04.000 We did.
01:37:05.000 I don't know.
01:37:06.000 I didn't see.
01:37:06.000 They didn't say anything about Antifa, but maybe you know because you're down there.
01:37:10.000 Old EOD guy says first ever super chat for first cup of sleepy joe.
01:37:14.000 Delicious.
01:37:15.000 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:37:17.000 I gotta be honest with you guys.
01:37:19.000 I will be 100% completely honest.
01:37:21.000 The French Roast from Casprew is, it's okay.
01:37:24.000 You know what I mean?
01:37:25.000 Like, I'm not gonna sit here and say it's good unless it's good.
01:37:27.000 I like the French Roast.
01:37:29.000 I would say that if I'm gonna go out, like, I like it better than, I like the French Roast better than most French Roasts I've ever gotten.
01:37:36.000 But it's fair, I would just consider it to be average.
01:37:38.000 You know, it's like, oh, it's a French Roast.
01:37:39.000 But Appalachian Nights, that's a blend we put together.
01:37:43.000 And Rives with Roberto Jr., those are my favorites.
01:37:45.000 Seriously, there's, like, Appalachian Nights is so good, I'm just chugging the whole thing.
01:37:49.000 Legit.
01:37:50.000 And I'm like, man, this is, this is too good.
01:37:51.000 You think you'll discontinue certain ones over time if they don't sell a lot?
01:37:56.000 Like, do analytics and, like, get rid of the French roast?
01:37:58.000 Nope, we just order less.
01:37:59.000 Or start a new one?
01:38:00.000 Just order less?
01:38:00.000 Yeah, my view on a lot of this stuff is, like, I don't like how Netflix operates in that we have a really big show, it's a hit show, it makes money, but not enough money, so we're gonna cancel it and prioritize other things.
01:38:09.000 I'm like, that's dumb.
01:38:10.000 If we're selling 100 bags of, say, the French Roast every month, then we'll just reduce our orders to 100 bags per month.
01:38:17.000 Because the people who like it can still buy it.
01:38:20.000 It's no big deal for us.
01:38:21.000 We want to get them what they need.
01:38:22.000 We'll just reduce in that area.
01:38:24.000 And then where the demand is, we'll give more.
01:38:26.000 So I will say this.
01:38:28.000 Roberto Jr.
01:38:29.000 passed away abruptly, unfortunately.
01:38:31.000 He died suddenly of a heart attack.
01:38:34.000 Literally.
01:38:34.000 Roberto Jr.
01:38:35.000 died suddenly of a heart attack.
01:38:36.000 I don't know what happened.
01:38:37.000 And the current bags that we have, we have a few thousand of them left.
01:38:42.000 They're actually selling rapidly because of this.
01:38:45.000 So we print batches of bags in about 5,000 per order, but we only brew the coffee in a few hundred per order.
01:38:52.000 I think it's a few hundred.
01:38:53.000 And we do that consistently so they're always fresh in rotation.
01:38:57.000 Once these printed bags are gone, they will never exist again.
01:39:01.000 The new bags will have an in-loving memory of Roberto Jr.
01:39:05.000 on the back of them.
01:39:06.000 It'll be effectively the same thing, but if you want the original bag from when Roberto Jr.
01:39:11.000 was our star celebrity and he was alive, you gotta buy it now before they run out.
01:39:15.000 We're doing a special Halloween blend called Re-Rise with Roberto Jr.
01:39:19.000 that's got a chicken leg coming out of the ground.
01:39:21.000 And we're only going to be doing 500 of these.
01:39:25.000 And it's a, yeah.
01:39:26.000 I think it's gonna be, I think it's a medium roast, I'm not entirely sure.
01:39:29.000 But I'm really excited for, I think we talked with Alex Stein about doing the prime time, Alex Stein 99 prime time grind.
01:39:36.000 And I think it's gonna be two times the caffeine.
01:39:38.000 That's awesome.
01:39:39.000 It'll be so fun.
01:39:40.000 I don't know.
01:39:41.000 And then Seamus is working on the art for the Seamus blend.
01:39:44.000 Really excited for all this.
01:39:46.000 Let's grab some more Super Chats.
01:39:49.000 Where we at?
01:39:50.000 Matthew Hammond says, Lauren is the best.
01:39:52.000 We should all remember that black pills are suppositories.
01:39:55.000 Is that is that a reference from you?
01:39:57.000 No, no, but I do.
01:39:59.000 I do kind of think that I talk a lot about black pilling on the show and and just say, you know, it's drinking poison and expecting other people to die.
01:40:06.000 It's and it poisons the minds of other people around you.
01:40:09.000 Like it does not.
01:40:10.000 If you're wanting to vent, if you're wanting to You know, have a moment, fine.
01:40:15.000 But if that's all you're doing constantly, you will bring those things into fruition.
01:40:19.000 So I'd have a pretty... It's not like a no blackpilling allowed thing, but, you know, be constructive with what you're saying or get out.
01:40:26.000 Probably one of my issues with venting in text, because if you vent with your words, it's done.
01:40:30.000 If you vent on Twitter, it's there forever for people to go read next week and go relive your trauma from last week that's out of your system.
01:40:37.000 So, like, don't vent with text.
01:40:39.000 Vent with your words.
01:40:41.000 All right.
01:40:42.000 Alan Childers says, can I get a shout out for the birth of my son, Joseph Daniel, born 645 tonight.
01:40:48.000 Mom and baby are doing great.
01:40:50.000 I'm going to have to get him a beanie now.
01:40:52.000 Shout out, Joseph Daniel.
01:40:54.000 Welcome to Earth.
01:40:55.000 Look at that kid coming in before IRL so his dad didn't miss the live show.
01:40:58.000 How respectful!
01:40:59.000 I know, it's just very thoughtful.
01:41:01.000 Maybe there's a chance to vent in text alone in your journal.
01:41:06.000 Just don't put your text vent online.
01:41:08.000 Do me that favor, not you.
01:41:10.000 No, I do that all the time.
01:41:12.000 Happy birthday, baby!
01:41:13.000 Thomas Ruff says, lost my dog to cancer on Friday.
01:41:16.000 Please give a shout out to Rufus Xavier, my beloved best friend of 14 years.
01:41:20.000 Rufus!
01:41:21.000 What a name.
01:41:21.000 This is an emotional rollercoaster.
01:41:23.000 Yeah, really.
01:41:24.000 We're up, we're down.
01:41:25.000 I'm having a hard time, guys.
01:41:26.000 Sorry to hear it, Good Sir Thomas.
01:41:28.000 Rufus Xavier is chasing cars up in heaven.
01:41:33.000 WeirdNugz says, 30,500 acre wildfire in Oregon, 881 personnel on site, please keep them in your prayers.
01:41:40.000 Wow, it is an emotional rollercoaster.
01:41:42.000 What a crazy day.
01:41:43.000 One of my buddies from Boise, from back in the day, is out there right now.
01:41:47.000 Fighting fires?
01:41:48.000 Yes sir.
01:41:48.000 Wow.
01:41:49.000 Hidden Mission says, are you going to talk about the House Oversight Committee, Robert L. Peters, Joe Biden, pseudonym, pseudonymous, pseudonymous, is that how you say it?
01:41:59.000 Pseudonymous.
01:41:59.000 Pseudonymous emails The Daily Wire is covering.
01:42:02.000 Perhaps I'll cover it tomorrow morning.
01:42:05.000 Pseudonymous.
01:42:06.000 It's interesting stuff.
01:42:08.000 Pseudonym.
01:42:09.000 That one gamer says, I was the one who recommended inspiring philosophy for the culture war on the after show a while back.
01:42:15.000 I was thinking maybe he can have a conversation with Ian.
01:42:17.000 Easy to reach on X. What do you say, Ian?
01:42:20.000 It is about time for me to do another culture war.
01:42:23.000 Religion one.
01:42:24.000 Let's make it a good one.
01:42:25.000 We need to find some good religious debaters.
01:42:27.000 Maybe Bill Maher.
01:42:29.000 Because of the writer's strike, real time's not on air, right?
01:42:31.000 Can we get Bill Maher to come in and talk religion?
01:42:33.000 That'd be awesome.
01:42:34.000 Yeah.
01:42:35.000 That'd be really interesting.
01:42:37.000 I just watched about half of him and Vivek Ramaswamy go at it on Club Random.
01:42:42.000 Cool stuff.
01:42:43.000 You know, I wish I'd been there.
01:42:44.000 Me too!
01:42:45.000 It's got a real friendly vibe.
01:42:47.000 Little V for Vendetta quote.
01:42:48.000 But there was, when he mentions that Donald Trump said, if WikiLeaks has the email, you know, we'd be interested in having it published or whatever.
01:42:57.000 And Bill Maher took a very, like, Neolib, hyper-extreme view of it, and Vivek was like,
01:43:03.000 I don't know what you're talking about.
01:43:04.000 And then he was like, you're the no BS guy and you don't even know what you're talking-
01:43:06.000 He said he wanted Russia to do this, blah blah blah, and I'm like,
01:43:09.000 Bill needs to have a sit-down with some regular people.
01:43:13.000 You know what I mean? Like, I think- Yeah.
01:43:15.000 I would love to do a Bill Maher culture war, and then also just get some, like,
01:43:18.000 suburban, metro, you know, DC area- area kind of guys, like middle of the road, kind of anger the Democrats and just have him join the show and talk to Bill.
01:43:28.000 Yeah, I got the same vibe because Vivek kept being like, I'm going to make the country and bring people together.
01:43:32.000 And he's like, and then Bill will be like, yeah, but Trump.
01:43:36.000 There's plenty of things that you could criticize Vivek on.
01:43:38.000 I do like him.
01:43:38.000 about making the world better Trump and your boyfriend Trump and he was like
01:43:43.000 that was like the final straw for Vivek when he called it told Vicky was his
01:43:46.000 boyfriend he was like all right dude I'm here because I want to be and I was like
01:43:51.000 yeah he's just too he's been stuck in that political life for so long so
01:43:56.000 intensely I'd love to help him out there's plenty of things that you could
01:44:01.000 criticize a vacant I do like him there's some big hole I don't know but if you're
01:44:06.000 if it's reduced down to but Trump that's not really that's not really
01:44:10.000 That's what Bill kept doing.
01:44:10.000 People are just dumb.
01:44:11.000 Yeah, he was like really, really pissed about it.
01:44:14.000 Alright, Viperus69 says, just watched your video about the Queen song.
01:44:17.000 There's something you missed.
01:44:18.000 The card is the Greatest Hits Vol.
01:44:20.000 1 album.
01:44:21.000 Queen's Greatest Hits is a three-album set, and I want to break Freedia's on Vol.
01:44:25.000 2.
01:44:25.000 Ah, I see, I see, so I missed that.
01:44:26.000 Either way, the issue is this.
01:44:28.000 There's this thing called the Uto Player, which is for children ages 0 through 9.
01:44:33.000 Well, they have a 9 plus section, but it's like 0 through 2, you know, 2 to 4, 6 to 8, or whatever.
01:44:39.000 And for the Queen card, it's little memory cards you put in and it plays it, they removed the song Fat Bottomed Girls.
01:44:46.000 And it generated some controversy where everyone's like, oh, they removed the song from the album, it's wokeness, it's millennials, and I'm like, dude, it's a kid's thing.
01:44:52.000 You know, but I gotta be honest.
01:44:54.000 I don't know if Bohemian Rhapsody is appropriate for 2-year-olds or 5-year-olds either.
01:44:58.000 On the website it says 6 to 14.
01:45:00.000 And I'm like, I get having like a six-year-old and wanting to sing Bohemian Rhapsody, but I also think people should consider you're driving in your car with your six-year-old going, Mama just killed a man, put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger.
01:45:15.000 Now, I don't know if you want to be saying that in front of your kid, right?
01:45:18.000 Yeah.
01:45:19.000 I mean, it's one of the greatest songs ever, if not the greatest.
01:45:21.000 And it's like one of the best things to sing.
01:45:23.000 But I understand why they took Fat Bottomed Girls off of the, you know, they're like, we don't want kids listening to Fat Bottomed Girls.
01:45:29.000 What a great song.
01:45:29.000 It's a similar thing.
01:45:30.000 You make the rockin' world go round That song's so good!
01:45:35.000 To be fair though, I do think Fat Bottomed Girls is sillier and funnier for kids
01:45:40.000 than I put a gun against his head and pulled the trigger and now I'm gonna go away for a long time, I gotta face the
01:45:45.000 truth I think Bohemian Rhapsody may be one of the best songs ever
01:45:48.000 written Oh yeah
01:45:50.000 It didn't exist in the 80s.
01:45:53.000 I grew up born in 79.
01:45:55.000 And then it never got radio play in the 80s, never got radio play in the 90s.
01:45:59.000 And then Wayne's World came out and put it in the movie and then it exploded and became a world Worldwide hit like in the 90s it was big early for
01:46:05.000 initially the first record labels And if you watch the Queen movie whatever they talked about
01:46:09.000 it But they didn't want to put it out because like why are we
01:46:10.000 lying out an orchestral song?
01:46:11.000 That's this long like there's no way there's gonna like this and people love it. I'm pretty sure the song came out
01:46:16.000 in 1975 as well Yes, yeah, I didn't even know it existed till Wayne's world.
01:46:21.000 It was right away. It was yeah It was huge massive 70s massive. It got like zero play in
01:46:26.000 the 80s And they were the radios were basically forced to play this
01:46:28.000 you know essentially six minutes song They don't play cuz it's so big. Yeah, right
01:46:33.000 Yeah.
01:46:34.000 Yep.
01:46:35.000 But it's an example of how a song can come out and 20 years later become a number one hit.
01:46:39.000 Shout out Waynesboro.
01:46:42.000 Let's grab some more Super Chats.
01:46:44.000 T Wood says, Portland isn't anything like the rest of Maine.
01:46:47.000 Down East Maine voted Republican in 2020 and politically removed from Portland.
01:46:51.000 Oh yeah, for sure, for sure.
01:46:53.000 Grog says, Portland, Maine is the blue in a red state.
01:46:56.000 They may be broken, but the blue infested a lot.
01:46:59.000 Don't be violent, people.
01:47:00.000 Absolutely don't be violent.
01:47:02.000 I think Maine's great.
01:47:03.000 I think I talk about it all the time, but I think Maine's wonderful.
01:47:05.000 You spend much time up there?
01:47:07.000 I've gone a couple different times.
01:47:09.000 I just find the coastal Maine and the architecture there, it's just gorgeous.
01:47:13.000 I think it's an underrated state, but I also grew up in New England, so it sort of feels more like home to me.
01:47:19.000 I love Maine.
01:47:20.000 I went up there with Bill Altman.
01:47:21.000 His family has a little property up there, like a little, like four houses and like this little guest community thing.
01:47:28.000 We stayed up there for a few days, right on the Canadian border.
01:47:31.000 Man, it's so nice.
01:47:32.000 Gorgeous.
01:47:33.000 You see Canada.
01:47:34.000 Noob431 says, had to put my 19-year-old cat Butters down this morning.
01:47:38.000 He loved watching Chicken City, so that was the last thing he got to watch as he waited for the vet.
01:47:43.000 He was the best cat.
01:47:44.000 Thanks for the stream, guys.
01:47:46.000 Sorry to hear.
01:47:47.000 Sorry to hear.
01:47:48.000 Butters.
01:47:49.000 We lost it.
01:47:50.000 Chicken City lost its best fan today.
01:47:52.000 Aw, that's so sweet.
01:47:53.000 19 years is such a testament to how well you took care of your cat, though.
01:47:56.000 That's so true.
01:47:56.000 That's a long life for a cat.
01:47:58.000 That's a long life.
01:47:59.000 Well, Bocas has been alive a lot longer than he's supposed to be.
01:48:03.000 How old is he?
01:48:04.000 He is going on five, I think he's just over five now, and he was, the doctor said he had a couple weeks to live in December.
01:48:11.000 Good job, Bocas.
01:48:12.000 So he's on, he's on, he's got a heart defect and he's got kidney problems because he was a street cat who was malnourished, presumably, And so the kidney medicine is bad for the heart, the heart medicine is bad for the kidneys.
01:48:24.000 We could give him dialysis for the kidneys, but his heart can't handle it, so we're just basically struggling to maintain balance, and his blood levels are getting out of whack, his kidneys don't work that well, but we're giving him hormones to simulate red blood cell growth, so we may have to do...
01:48:38.000 Like, once the blood levels, like nitrogen or whatever, gets too high, like, do a blood transfusion, which could kill him, because his heart is no good, but we can't leave his blood in a bad state.
01:48:46.000 I'll just say, he's very happy.
01:48:49.000 He's been in good spirits over the past several months.
01:48:52.000 Oh yeah.
01:48:52.000 He's been living life, he's been gaining weight, and he's survived a lot longer than they thought he would.
01:48:57.000 So that's really, that's really good news.
01:48:59.000 But we can't give him fluids anymore, is a big problem.
01:49:01.000 With animals, and cats in particular, their mood is a big part of, will they survive?
01:49:05.000 Do they want to live?
01:49:06.000 You know, humans too.
01:49:07.000 The broken heart death is like, just so tragic.
01:49:09.000 It's funny because I feel like he's a Chicago guy.
01:49:13.000 Do you guys know Mancow?
01:49:13.000 No.
01:49:13.000 I think they syndicated him in Ohio.
01:49:15.000 IRL or culture war.
01:49:16.000 He became a huge free speech advocate, even was in the Illinois governor race.
01:49:20.000 Yeah, that'd be really cool.
01:49:22.000 Never even considered having Mancow on, we should definitely.
01:49:24.000 It's funny because I feel like he's a Chicago guy.
01:49:26.000 Do you guys know Mancow?
01:49:27.000 No.
01:49:28.000 I think they syndicated him in Ohio.
01:49:30.000 He's like huge in Chicago.
01:49:32.000 I don't know if he still is.
01:49:34.000 It's like Howard Stern, but in Chicago.
01:49:35.000 Oh, okay.
01:49:36.000 And it's funny, he's got billboards everywhere.
01:49:38.000 I remember my friends telling me that on the morning of 9-11,
01:49:41.000 they were on their way to school, high school, and Mancow is this like shock jock morning show.
01:49:48.000 And then he's like, ladies and gentlemen, this is not a joke.
01:49:51.000 A plane has crashed into the World Trade Center, and then they all start laughing in the car.
01:49:55.000 Like, that man, Kyle, is so ridiculous with his ridiculous show, and then he's like, this is not a joke, this is serious, another plane's crashed, and they're all laughing in the car, like, this guy's out of his mind.
01:50:03.000 They have to, like, bring in a producer and be like, no, he's not joking.
01:50:06.000 No, they went into school and they walked in and they said, everyone, call your parents, you're going home.
01:50:10.000 Hmm.
01:50:11.000 Yeah.
01:50:11.000 That's crazy.
01:50:12.000 I guess in Chicago they would send everyone home.
01:50:15.000 Some places did, some places didn't.
01:50:17.000 I feel like major cities probably did.
01:50:19.000 Some schools brought in TVs and turned the news on and just made everybody watch.
01:50:23.000 I was I think in kindergarten when it happened and we all got sent home but I grew up like two hours outside of New York so there was like lots of panic all around and people's parents commute in and stuff like that.
01:50:33.000 I wasn't in school.
01:50:34.000 I was at home sleeping.
01:50:36.000 Woke up to the news on the TV.
01:50:38.000 I was in Queens.
01:50:38.000 Same.
01:50:39.000 And then I had to listen.
01:50:40.000 I didn't have a TV set up because I just moved to New York City.
01:50:42.000 And so I listened to Howard Stern talk about it for like three hours.
01:50:44.000 It's pretty wild.
01:50:46.000 I could smell it.
01:50:47.000 I could see it.
01:50:48.000 6th grade in Alabama.
01:50:49.000 Everyone's... The Real Hydro PX.
01:50:52.000 This guy probably gives us more money in Super Chats than any other person.
01:50:56.000 Sorry, Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
01:50:57.000 Hydro's got you covered.
01:50:58.000 He says, Tim, you said you would pay $5,000 for any information on who did the arson.
01:51:02.000 You said nothing about the police pressing charges.
01:51:05.000 Pay the guy already.
01:51:06.000 Actually, the tweet I put out specifically said, as for legal reasons, information leading to the arrest and conviction.
01:51:16.000 Of the the arsonist and there's very specific legal reasons why I said it that way and why everyone always does say it that way.
01:51:24.000 Oh, I think we got an update.
01:51:26.000 Well, hold on.
01:51:27.000 I just got a notification on Twitter right now about it.
01:51:29.000 I'm trying to find it.
01:51:30.000 Where's the stupid notification?
01:51:32.000 It's in here somewhere.
01:51:32.000 Here we go.
01:51:33.000 A tweet from John Kane.
01:51:37.000 What does he say?
01:51:37.000 Okay.
01:51:40.000 Whoa, okay.
01:51:41.000 Wake County DA Lauren Freeman to charge the 2x arsonist with two counts of misdemeanor injury to real property.
01:51:48.000 And John Kane, at John M. Kane, with a K, 7076 put out a response with the announcement.
01:51:55.000 Well, there you go!
01:51:56.000 And so there's a reason why I said information that leads to the arrest and conviction, because, and I'll leave it at that, there's a legal reason for putting that out as such.
01:52:06.000 And additionally, I said earlier, Hydro, if you paid attention, that I believe the evidence was so overwhelming that it constitutes an immediate payout of the reward, and I am conferring with legal to properly pay this reward to the individual who provided said information.
01:52:24.000 Considering, I don't know what the fake outrage over the reward is, like, considering I'm putting $20,000 into a local DIY skate contest, pretty sure it's not gonna be a big deal to make sure the guy who's helping bring an arsonist to justice gets paid.
01:52:36.000 It's just like, the news just broke today, and I'm contacting my lawyer to properly have the funds transferred.
01:52:43.000 Because I don't know how it works with rewards for, you know, criminal actions and things like that.
01:52:50.000 But, uh, yeah, there you go.
01:52:52.000 What do we got?
01:52:53.000 Let's grab some more.
01:52:54.000 Super chats.
01:52:57.000 All right.
01:52:59.000 D3FEC says, if Trump is being prosecuted for actions he did while president, why isn't a Republican AG prosecuting Obama for terrorism for droning that cafe in Yemen?
01:53:09.000 Just to show the precedent they are setting.
01:53:11.000 Yeah, come on.
01:53:13.000 We want the Republicans to do a lot of things they don't do.
01:53:15.000 However, to be fair, You know, a lot of people complain about the Republicans in Congress.
01:53:19.000 They are filing subpoenas and charges, and they're working on stuff.
01:53:24.000 You know, I'm not particularly satisfied with it, but it's only been a few months.
01:53:30.000 It's been almost a year since they gained control, and there have been a lot of things that have come out.
01:53:35.000 And I think the Republicans will ramp up in 2024.
01:53:38.000 There is information that seems to show Joe Biden intentionally intervened to protect Hunter in these criminal cases, which is absolute impeachment.
01:53:47.000 Absolute.
01:53:48.000 Conviction, not so much.
01:53:49.000 We'll see.
01:53:51.000 Where are we at with these superchats?
01:53:53.000 Jason Dixon said, Tim, make sure they buy the correct song.
01:53:56.000 There are several fake copies of his song.
01:53:58.000 Also got a guest suggestion, how about Raymond Stanley Jr.?
01:54:01.000 Yes, perhaps!
01:54:02.000 We'll have him, well, he works here now.
01:54:04.000 Yeah, I just met him today, he's so nice.
01:54:05.000 Yeah, it's official.
01:54:07.000 Yeah, and we periodically have people come on, but, uh, you know.
01:54:11.000 Uh, where are we at?
01:54:11.000 Yeah, shout out, he's the nicest.
01:54:14.000 Doing good work, helping make sure everything's working.
01:54:16.000 Our AC keeps breaking.
01:54:18.000 Simple fixes too, it's just nobody knows how to fix it.
01:54:21.000 Justin Green, Oliver Anthony to perform at Blue Ridge Rock Festival!
01:54:24.000 That was the best.
01:54:26.000 Look, I've been only to a handful of festivals, but Blue Ridge was amazing.
01:54:30.000 It was fantastic.
01:54:32.000 I think it's Virginia.
01:54:34.000 I've driven up the parkway.
01:54:35.000 It's gorgeous.
01:54:36.000 It kind of invokes scenery ideas.
01:54:38.000 It's huge.
01:54:39.000 Massive.
01:54:40.000 Massive.
01:54:41.000 And it was super fun.
01:54:42.000 We got to hang out with Adelita's Way.
01:54:44.000 That was really cool.
01:54:45.000 Those guys were awesome.
01:54:46.000 Seeing them play live, that was amazing.
01:54:48.000 Those guys can perform.
01:54:49.000 Yeah, dude.
01:54:50.000 Rick's a genius.
01:54:51.000 It's sold out.
01:54:51.000 He's so great.
01:54:52.000 It's sold out.
01:54:52.000 We have a song.
01:54:53.000 I did a song with Adelita's Way that'll be being released in the next couple months.
01:54:57.000 We'll let you know more as the date arises.
01:55:00.000 And it looks like Blue Ridge just sold out.
01:55:02.000 Blue Ridge Rock Festival 2023 sold out!
01:55:05.000 We went last year, right?
01:55:06.000 Yeah.
01:55:07.000 Man, that was so much fun.
01:55:08.000 Really great.
01:55:09.000 Walking around at night in the mud.
01:55:11.000 We are lucky in that we were gifted industry passes.
01:55:16.000 Very lucky.
01:55:17.000 Because we're good friends with a rock star who happens to come on the show periodically.
01:55:21.000 The Jesus.
01:55:23.000 Well, I was talking about Phil.
01:55:24.000 Phil, All That Remains performed.
01:55:26.000 Yeah, that's the other thing we're talking about doing, too.
01:55:28.000 Hopefully, we can have it.
01:55:31.000 We can have this happen.
01:55:32.000 Fridays, we wanted to bring back music.
01:55:34.000 For a long time, we've been talking about it, doing a Friday jam session.
01:55:37.000 And I was asking Phil if he would want to do a cassette with All That Remains.
01:55:41.000 You know, we'll see, though.
01:55:41.000 So, it's up to him.
01:55:42.000 I was like, I got an excellent way to convince your bandmates to do it.
01:55:46.000 Money.
01:55:47.000 You know, money.
01:55:48.000 And then he was like, oh, yeah, that works.
01:55:51.000 We'll see.
01:55:51.000 It'd be really cool to have, you know, him and maybe someone else perform and play some music.
01:55:56.000 Maybe even Adelita's Way.
01:55:57.000 Yeah.
01:55:58.000 Man, those guys are good.
01:55:59.000 Really.
01:55:59.000 Trevor, dude.
01:56:00.000 Yeah.
01:56:02.000 Where we at?
01:56:03.000 Dusty Firebird says I made a vertical version of the video and have the official iTunes and his socials in the description.
01:56:08.000 I ask all the commenters to buy the song.
01:56:10.000 Everybody gotta buy Richmond, North of Richmond.
01:56:14.000 And I hope that just more comes out of that.
01:56:16.000 I hope there's more breakthrough artists that are writing songs like this that are challenging the machine and speaking to the masses.
01:56:22.000 But more importantly, I hope that everyone buys that song.
01:56:24.000 I hope that you buy things you care about.
01:56:26.000 I hope you download Public Square onto your phone and use that app to buy from companies that share your values.
01:56:33.000 That's why we have a whole bunch of that Anthem jerky and carnivore snacks.
01:56:38.000 Because not only are they really good, but I'd rather give my money to people that are doing good things, that care about the future of this country.
01:56:44.000 I don't want to give my money to garbage companies.
01:56:49.000 Jason Hutchinson says, Creatives are the only ones that actually pay taxes.
01:56:52.000 Everyone else that acquires money through fake jobs that don't create anything anyone values or needs is just paying taxes looted from the creatives that produce things people value giving value to money.
01:57:03.000 I'm somewhat confused.
01:57:04.000 There are people who do work to make things, and then there are people who do weird fake jobs for money.
01:57:10.000 And it's always been the case.
01:57:12.000 There's also people that transport stuff.
01:57:16.000 Venezuela is a good example of a country with fake jobs.
01:57:22.000 They artificially regulate the existence of jobs by saying a cell phone store may not have a salesman sell the phone and get the phone from the back room to hand it to the customer.
01:57:35.000 So when you're buying a cell phone, I went to buy a cell phone in Venezuela.
01:57:38.000 There was like six people I had to talk to just to get the phone because the government mandates it, the regulation.
01:57:42.000 Wow, that's crazy.
01:57:43.000 To create jobs.
01:57:44.000 They create jobs by force.
01:57:46.000 Doesn't work.
01:57:46.000 Yeah, doesn't work.
01:57:47.000 It just makes everyone angry and crushes the economic system.
01:57:51.000 Yep.
01:57:53.000 We'll grab some more.
01:57:54.000 Jason Dixon says, Trump just said he will turn himself in Thursday.
01:57:59.000 Wow.
01:57:59.000 I wouldn't be surprised if the judge goes, the deal for $200,000 bond?
01:58:02.000 Rejected!
01:58:02.000 Remand.
01:58:03.000 Bangs the gavel.
01:58:07.000 I'm not saying it will happen.
01:58:07.000 I'm saying I would not be surprised if I go, well, you know, there you go.
01:58:10.000 Just because the prosecution cut a deal on the bond does not mean the judge accepts it.
01:58:15.000 You guys ever watch Yellowstone?
01:58:16.000 Yep.
01:58:17.000 That scene where the environmental activist cuts the deal and then Kevin Costner's like, don't take the deal.
01:58:23.000 And she's like, I'm going to take the deal.
01:58:25.000 And then as soon as she pleads guilty, the judge goes, you plead guilty?
01:58:27.000 Okay.
01:58:28.000 I reject the deal.
01:58:28.000 14 years.
01:58:29.000 Bang.
01:58:30.000 And she's like, what?
01:58:31.000 Because the prosecution was like, we want her to serve a year.
01:58:34.000 And then as soon as she pleads guilty, the judge can be like, no, I'll do whatever I want.
01:58:37.000 Yeah.
01:58:38.000 Too bad that show's getting cancelled, I really liked it.
01:58:40.000 I know, I'm sad about it.
01:58:41.000 Did it fail?
01:58:42.000 No!
01:58:42.000 Kevin Costner doesn't want to do it.
01:58:44.000 Oh, well.
01:58:45.000 So they're gonna do, uh, was it four sixes?
01:58:48.000 Four sixes I think they're gonna do, which they actually, the creator actually owns that ranch, which I think is hilarious.
01:58:53.000 And then isn't, uh, was it 19... One of their other ones, 1923.
01:58:58.000 1923?
01:58:58.000 It still has a couple episodes to go, I think.
01:59:02.000 Yeah, but they're different shows.
01:59:03.000 Yellowstone was a really good show.
01:59:06.000 Yeah, it was awesome.
01:59:06.000 The funny thing is that, what do they call it, the corridor of death in Wyoming is real.
01:59:11.000 It's never been effectively tested other than a guy who killed a bull moose and got charged and then tried claiming there was no... No jurisdiction.
01:59:19.000 Well, there's no peers by which to have a constitutionally sound trial.
01:59:23.000 Yeah, there's no one to be a jury.
01:59:24.000 And then the federal courts were just like, try us.
01:59:26.000 And he was like, okay, okay, I'll take the deal.
01:59:28.000 And the deal was like, it's like slap on the wrist or see how far we're willing to take this one.
01:59:32.000 Yeah.
01:59:32.000 I wouldn't try it.
01:59:35.000 Nick Bezos, I just finished Vivek's interview with Sean Ryan.
01:59:38.000 Oh, nice.
01:59:39.000 This one sold me.
01:59:40.000 I was gonna vote Trump, but I don't believe he'll step up if he gets in again.
01:59:43.000 Straight up, I think Vivek could change the world.
01:59:45.000 Oh, Sean Ryan's awesome.
01:59:46.000 Did you see the video of Vivek playing tennis?
01:59:48.000 Yeah, beast mode, dude.
01:59:51.000 I love this guy.
01:59:52.000 It's not a video of the game of tennis.
01:59:57.000 It's just Vivek with no shirt playing tennis and you can't see who he's playing against.
02:00:01.000 I just thought it was hilarious.
02:00:02.000 Man, he lays into that tennis ball too.
02:00:05.000 With a tennis grunt and all.
02:00:06.000 I thought it was funny.

02:01:05.000 So there's not anything recent.
02:01:07.000 I updated some drivers and then everything broke.
02:01:09.000 So that was a good time.
02:01:10.000 I don't like technology either.
02:01:11.000 I am begrudgingly learning a lot about it.
