Actor Nick Searcy (Justified, Fried Green Tomatoes) joins us to talk about his new film, "Capital Punishment," a documentary about the events of January 6th in Washington, D.C. and the reaction to it. We also talk about the Black Lives Matter protests and inflation.
00:00:10.000First GoFundMe says we're shutting this down.
00:00:13.000Now you've got government officials basically saying that these donations are, you can't give them out, it's illegal, it's illegal activity.
00:00:20.000They're going to block it from transferring through banks.
00:00:36.000When truckers show up and park their cars, it is so disruptive, Trudeau has crybaby panic attacks, and the government desperately tries to stop the funding of these protests.
00:00:47.000We got more news that apparently, I don't know if this is true, there's going to be a US convoy starting at the Super Bowl.
00:00:53.000And I kind of, I don't know if I believe that, because that sounds like, you know, why would truckers go and protest regular people who are mining their own business?
00:01:00.000Why would they go to a government building or DC or something?
00:01:43.000We also had at Madison Square Garden in New York City, a sold-out crowd at Madison Square Garden chanting, Let's Go Brandon, which is insane because it's New York City.
00:03:31.000I'd like to maybe, thinking maybe we could change the way we think about inflation, say inflation's getting better, which means the economy's getting worse.
00:03:40.000I'm really excited for tonight's talk.
00:03:44.000Nick is a very accomplished actor and I'm sure he has a lot to say about the wonderful world of Hollywood and hopefully we can get into Gazanel.
00:04:36.000For a while I was posting one like equals one honk.
00:04:40.000And then I would pin it to the chat, and for the past few days, it won't let me.
00:04:43.000Every time I try, it just errors out and doesn't post the message.
00:04:46.000But isn't it hilarious how desperate they are?
00:04:48.000There's literally nothing the establishment can do to stop these people, and they're like, well, we won't let you say honk on the internet.
00:05:05.000From globalnews.ca, Ontario freezes funds from GiveSendGo trucker convoy fundraiser.
00:05:11.000The Ontario government says it has successfully petitioned a court to freeze access to millions of dollars donated through online fundraising platform GiveSendGo.
00:05:20.000My first question is, are they based in Canada?
00:05:22.000And how can you actually stop this from getting to people?
00:05:25.000The GiveSendGo organizers could just convert it to Bitcoin or crypto and there's nothing anyone could do to stop them.
00:05:31.000However, that would be against this court order, just so you know.
00:05:35.000I don't know if it's illegal, but they're going to say, the province obtained an order from the Superior Court of Justice that prohibits anyone from distributing donations made through the website's Freedom Convoy 2022 and Adopt-A-Trucker campaign pages, said a spokesman for Premier Doug Ford.
00:05:51.000Ivana Yelich said the order binding any and all parties with possession or control of these donations was issued Thursday afternoon.
00:05:57.000She cited a section of the criminal code that allows the Attorney General to apply for a restraint order against any offense-related property.
00:06:11.000Says the Ontario government says it has effectively frozen all donations.
00:06:14.000Quote, today the Attorney General brought brought an application in the Superior Court of Justice for an order pursuant to section 490.8 of the Criminal Code prohibiting any person from disposing of or otherwise dealing with in any manner whatsoever any and all monetary donations made through the Freedom Convoy 2022 and Adopt-A-Trucker campaign pages on the GiveSendGo online fundraising platform.
00:06:39.000It binds any and all parties with possession or control over these donations.
00:06:44.000I don't know, are the people who have set the page Canadian?
00:06:46.000And I wonder, ultimately, if it's gonna matter.
00:06:49.000Yeah, well, also, even if they're not based in Canada, the Canadian government can say, we'll never let you operate within the borders of our country again, or something along those lines, unless you surrender the money to us.
00:06:59.000So here's what I don't understand, right?
00:07:23.000Yeah, well, look at how these kinds of things go.
00:07:25.000When BLM riots, burns down cities, gets people killed, absolutely destroys lower class neighborhoods, they are given federal relief money from J.B.
00:07:38.000When people voluntarily decide that they want to support working class people standing up for their rights as workers, that money is stolen from them.
00:07:45.000Looks like Gibson goes based out of Boston, Massachusetts, according to crunchbase.com.
00:07:49.000So I would imagine they don't really have any liability here.
00:07:54.000No foreign government can make them do anything.
00:07:57.000But it's the people who started the page.
00:09:22.000Well, the thing with GiveSendGo, I mean, was my comment earlier off base, is it possible that the Canadian government could legitimately just say to them, you can't operate here unless you surrender the funds?
00:10:48.000If truckers, even in small groups, decided we're going to take what we want from now on, no one could stop them.
00:10:55.000To me, it looks like they really need something that's less centralized.
00:10:58.000So they tried GoFundMe, and now they're trying GiveSendGo, and they're having kind of the same problems with both platforms.
00:11:03.000Even though GiveSendGo is much freer than GoFundMe was, it sounds like they need a way to get these individual funds to the truckers that need it without going through a central system.
00:12:01.000It would be really funny, I gotta be honest, if the people who set the page up are not in Canada, And we're just like Americans who are like, we're gonna help fundraise for this.
00:12:09.000Because then Canada really is just having a temper tantrum and they can do nothing about it.
00:12:14.000Well, I'm worried about, remember how they just seized the crypto keys from the people who are running this kind of Bitcoin scam?
00:12:20.000And I think it was New York City, the Crocodile Wall Street or whatever this lady and her husband called themselves.
00:12:25.000So I'm curious if they're going to try to use this as a way to get the whole control of crypto jump started.
00:12:31.000I wonder if they'll use this as a way to like wedge in.
00:12:34.000I just thought last night, first time I thought this, I think maybe Crypto itself, Nakamoto, Satoshi Nakamoto, maybe that that is like a government operation to get, and then they're gonna crash the fiat system and then get everyone on crypto and then track everybody.
00:12:48.000I mean, I literally said this two years ago.
00:14:02.000Yeah, the other thing we're seeing too is kind of like, as an aside but somewhat related, you see they're having National Guard act as substitute teachers?
00:14:14.000In New Mexico, 79 National Guard were deployed to be teachers and they're saying there's going to be more.
00:14:19.000And I'm just like, yo, we're getting to the point where they're going to steal your money right from underneath you.
00:14:25.000Imagine what the future looks like when they can take your money away because it's digital and they control the banks and the financial institutions.
00:14:30.000Think about what the future likes when they issue a universal basic income.
00:14:46.000Yes, I heard that there, uh, this was just a one person on Twitter said that by 2026, they want to have kill switches in all cars, like remote kill switches.
00:15:35.000I love that meme where it's like, it's a Twitter post and the guy's like, so yeah, the CIA did bad stuff in the 50s, the 60s, the 70s, the 80s, the 90s, the 2000s.
00:15:48.000No one's ever been criminally charged or held accountable, but We can't assume they're doing anything wrong now.
00:16:16.000It's just, I'm so over it, I'm so beyond it.
00:16:19.000The people in the, I don't know what you call it, liberty side of things, have this tendency to think that they're playing a fair game of chess.
00:16:27.000While the other side is snickering amongst themselves about how they've been cheating the whole time.
00:16:31.000Yeah, Massey was saying last night, Thomas Massey was on the show, Congressman, and he was saying that it's like he goes in there and he has to almost forget most of what he knows about engineering just to participate in Congress because it's so emotionally charged and people are, Like wild animals, you know, working off their feelings Yes, I didn't say that that's me interpreting what he said, but I agree with the emotion thing, but it's it's like it's so much more raw than you realize You're talking to a brick wall, you know when you're talking to someone So I'll give you guys an example and I'll give a shout out to our good friends the Young Turks because they deserve it We love them.
00:17:01.000I just want to I just want to say to you know, Anna Kasparian I don't understand why she's such a mean person.
00:17:06.000I She's better than me. I'm told. Well, I mean, she's just a
00:17:08.000mean person. And you know, I've talked about the Young Turks. I've talked about a bunch of
00:17:13.000people and I'll criticize them. But I always try to keep it to a certain degree, depending on
00:17:16.000who it is, like CNN, they get nothing from me. Like they're awful. You know, all of them
00:17:21.000are just vile people. But, you know, I recently tweeted something nice to Cenk Uygur because he
00:17:27.000tweeted out, try being nice to someone and see, see how it makes you feel.
00:17:30.000And I was like, I respect and agree with that.
00:17:32.000So I tweeted at Cenk, I was like, I think you're a smart man who's widely successful with one of the biggest political shows.
00:17:37.000And I respect your hard work that you put into this.
00:17:51.000And we had Enrique Tarrio on of the Proud Boys.
00:17:53.000And I had mentioned, look, the people at the front gate of the tunnel entrance of the Capitol, and the front entrance where they're fighting with cops, that whole area.
00:18:02.000All those people, okay, that was violence, that was a violent riot.
00:18:06.000You commit an act of violence, we arrest you.
00:18:08.000Those people, yeah, hands down, we get it.
00:18:10.000You're gonna get them for whatever you get them for.
00:18:12.000But there are a lot of people who are the Maga Mimas, as we call it, who are walking around and then all of a sudden you see this video of the cops opening the barricades and fanning people in.
00:18:21.000So my specific point was If you're walking down the street and a police officer goes like this and waves you in, opens up the barricades, you are not trespassing.
00:18:30.000You are not legally trespassing in any circumstance.
00:18:33.000Now, the prosecutors here might lie and just claim we don't care what the reality is.
00:18:51.000So when I tell this story and I said that the people who entered under the circumstances, I don't see how you can even get them for trespassing.
00:19:00.000What ends up happening is, you know, Anna Kasparian makes this whole video where the one thing I just don't understand is, she's like, she accuses me of saying these things knowing it's false because I just want to make money.
00:19:10.000They then try to allege that because other people on the other side of the building were fighting with cops, that means the other people on the other side of the building who are let in by the cops are committing crimes.
00:19:20.000And I'm just like, that's the point of... You know, I don't bring them up to actually engage in any meaningful dialogue with them because they don't want to.
00:19:40.000I literally just complimented the man's work, but instead what they do is they make insults, they insult my appearance, they don't engage with the core of what the actual statement or argument is.
00:19:50.000So at this point, with all of this stuff going on, I just say, the only thing that matters right now that these people are interested in is power.
00:19:59.000And if we, as the libertarian side of things, I don't mean big L, I mean just the more freedom-oriented people, keep saying, why won't they understand?
00:20:08.000Maybe if we keep trying to convince them to understand, they do understand.
00:20:14.000Look, I sent, I tweeted at Anna, I commented on their video, I DM'd with Cenk periodically saying, let's talk.
00:20:20.000And I said, what I said was a specific reference to a story from ABC News where the defendants in the case on January 6th said, the police let us in and told us it was okay.
00:20:31.000And my point is, if that is discernibly true, you can't prosecute on trespassing in any circumstance.
00:20:39.000I mean, there's probably some technicalities.
00:20:41.000Instead of actually taking the core of that argument, she just says, Tim's lying for money, he's a grifter, he knows he's lying, and they totally misrepresent the entirety of the conversation.
00:20:51.000There's no point in arguing with these people.
00:20:53.000So right now we're at a point where this country is so far divided, There's just, you are wasting your time when you should be doing grassroots organizing.
00:21:01.000Some kind of effective growth strategy.
00:21:04.000There's an old saying that when you argue with a fool there are two.
00:21:08.000I do think there's one exception here.
00:21:11.000If someone says something ridiculous like this to you and then you respond and you have a reasonable argument, The moderates will see that, and they will be more likely to take your side in the future.
00:21:22.000If the person you're arguing with responds to your reasonable response in bad faith, then I think you just have to discontinue the conversation.
00:21:30.000Because if you respond to their bad faith, then you look like an idiot.
00:21:33.000Because you look like you're, because honestly you look like you're reacting emotionally because you know you can't reason with this person.
00:21:38.000You're only continuing with the argument because you want your ego to come out on top.
00:21:53.000In this specific context, there is a video you can watch of the police opening the barricades and fanning people in.
00:22:00.000Oh, my question is, if there's a cop on your driveway and you had a no trespassing sign and they were waving people in, and you didn't know, would those people not be trespassing then because a cop waved them in?
00:22:10.000Well, but Ian, if it was a police officer charged or if it was a security agent specifically charged with protecting the parameter, like the Capitol Police are specifically charged to protect that parameter and they were the ones letting people in.
00:22:20.000And they were the ones holding the barricades, so let me make this point, okay?
00:22:24.000They opened the barricades up, there's video of it, there's numerous videos, and multiple officers fanning people in.
00:22:30.000Now the argument is, they were fanning the officers back, saying retreat, because the mob was pushing too hard.
00:22:36.000The mob didn't break the barriers down, the cops opened them up, and that was at least at one entrance.
00:22:40.000You have to understand that when it comes to criminal law, an individual is an individual.
00:22:44.000On January 17th, 2020, the police in DC tried charging Antifa as a group under conspiracy.
00:23:13.000And then one officer says, I don't agree with it, but I respect it.
00:23:17.000Now if you're walking into a building and a cop says that, how could you be criminally prosecuted under trespassing when trespassing requires you know you trespassed?
00:23:26.000And I'll give you the specific example is, when we had the police here, Talking to them, the officer told us, if you don't have a sign, if it's just a driveway, the public is allowed to enter.
00:23:39.000You can then tell them to leave, and they have to, and if they don't, then it's trespassing.
00:23:42.000By placing the sign, now it's trespassing.
00:24:27.000But you were going to say something, Nick?
00:24:28.000Well, I was there myself on January 6th, and I saw myself, I saw the police remove the barricades and let people get up on the steps of the Capitol.
00:24:51.000I didn't see any of the violence when I was there.
00:24:54.000But one of the people in our movie, two of the people in our movie, are these two twin 74-year-old grandmothers who went to the Capitol that day and they said they saw some people going in and out of the doorway at the Capitol building.
00:25:07.000And one said to the other, do you want to go in?
00:25:10.000And they decided to go in and they talked to the police.
00:25:13.000They went and they said to the policeman, is it okay if we're in here?
00:26:06.000The video they showed was of me saying the door was opened by police and the police said I respect it.
00:26:13.000They then took that of me saying it and and twisted it So that their audience believes I'm saying people climbed over broken glass, how could that be trespassing?
00:26:23.000You read the comments, and it's so sad.
00:26:26.000And this is why I understand the desire to want to argue with these people.
00:26:30.000Because they're all saying the same thing.
00:26:32.000If they were fighting with cops and breaking glass and climbing through windows to get in, how could Tim be so dumb?
00:26:38.000And I'm like, man, I sure do wish the Young Turks were just honest about what I actually said to Enrique Tarrio, that the people who engage in violence should be prosecuted, they should be in prison, the people beating cops should be arrested, the people fighting with police in the tunnel should be arrested, and the memos, who were welcomed in by police, whether you agree with it or not, I did not say they're innocent, I said, you probably can't prosecute on trespassing, unless there was an explicit warning, which there wasn't, there was welcoming.
00:27:05.000Now, if they were honest, I would love to engage in an argument with them, but they're taking what I said out of context, changing the context, lying to their audience, and then when I politely say to them, I'd love to explain, they refuse to engage.
00:27:33.000When I think of Young Turks, I think 2006, 2007.
00:27:35.000Thank God for the Young Turks because they spoke out against the war in Iraq and Afghanistan and they were clear and concise and we needed that.
00:27:41.000But I think at some point that company may have been turned inward or their rage was kind of twisted around and refocused.
00:27:50.000She could tweet back at me, I didn't realize you were referring to a news story from ABC where they legitimately brought up the defense in court that police were welcoming them in the building.
00:28:02.000And it's not the first time Anna Kasparian has done this.
00:28:05.000Every single instance in which she referenced me and I offer up a polite response, she ignores it.
00:28:10.000So either she's purposefully ignoring a legitimate rebuttal to her wrong statements, which would make her evil, or She doesn't realize I'm saying these things, but regardless, every step of the way, when the Young Turks have the opportunity to assess the evidence, respond, because I've DM'd Cenk Uygur on numerous occasions, I've known the guy for a long time, the last time I saw him, he screamed at me, and I saw him at VidCon, he walked up to me, this was years ago, he shakes my hand, how's it going man, how things have been?
00:28:36.000I've been on his show several times, something happened in this country, where people like, you say, yeah, maybe in 2006, Cenk Uygur was a good dude, maybe.
00:28:47.000I saw him at VidCon in maybe 2016, I think it was.
00:29:11.000But look, I don't want to get, my point is, when you get to the point where I got no beef, I have no issue with them, I recognize their disagreement.
00:29:21.000And they refuse to assess the evidence, and then continue to mislead their audience.
00:29:25.000I think it is so important when you're going to create a news organization and you've got like an entertainment magazine and you're going to be one or you're going to be in the middle.
00:29:34.000See, this is a characteristic of the left that I think has happened over the last few years and it's that they can't really even look at your argument.
00:29:42.000They can't bring themselves to even consider it.
00:30:07.000My favorite, and just while we're on the subject, is we did a segment on this show a year and a half ago or so where we talked about, there were five different studies that said conservatives tend to be more attractive than liberals.
00:30:17.000The point I specifically brought up was that there's attractiveness privilege, an idea prevalent among the left, that people who are more attractive tend to be more privileged, and those who are privileged are more likely to be conservative or independent.
00:30:32.000Instead of addressing the context, they just made a video saying, Tim Poole's ugly and stupid.
00:30:39.000I'm willing to 100% assess the situation of January 6th and say anybody who is violent and fighting and attacking cops, you get charged for that.
00:30:48.000The people who knocked over barricades or did anything like that or grabbed shields or hit people, tried shoving their way in the tunnel, you commit a crime when you do that, you write, you go to jail for that.
00:30:59.000And then there were other circumstances in which Alex Jones said don't go in the building and told people not to go in.
00:31:04.000And the January 6th committee subpoenas him and tries going after all his records, which is an insane abuse of power on the press.
00:31:10.000Then you have regular people, like you mentioned, these old ladies, who are told by the police they're allowed inside the building.
00:31:15.000And now the media is trying to make it seem like every single person was a rioter who smashed a window and climbed through a window.
00:31:22.000You know, a 74-year-old lady didn't climb through a window, bro.
00:31:24.000Why is it that the Young Turks and other people like them will not even Google search this?
00:31:31.000Why is that when I do a video, they watch enough to clip the video out of context to know where to cut the context to make sure their audience doesn't see what I'm actually talking about, but then they don't investigate further because it's an intentional action.
00:31:43.000Yeah, I think it might be because they don't want Trump to get reelected.
00:31:46.000I didn't want to talk about my fear that the noise could be construed as violence, like noise weaponry, because I really support the truckers.
00:31:54.000So I didn't say anything about it the first night.
00:31:56.000Kind of like I chose to ignore what I knew was real because I didn't want to hurt the people I wanted to win.
00:32:03.000But then I was like, I can't live like that.
00:32:22.000But to your point, Jonathan Haidt did research which unsurprisingly showed that conservatives are far more likely to understand left-wing positions than left-wingers are to understand conservative positions.
00:32:34.000And anyone who's conservative who has consumed left-wing media understood this without his research, and left-wingers who consume conservative media don't exist, which is why we have this problem.
00:32:59.000They don't want, they won't, they can't bear to look at it.
00:33:02.000I even had to fire my own agent just over the Christmas holidays because I'm talking to him about, you know, about the movie and with the premieres and the, you know, the stuff.
00:33:12.000And he's like, yeah, I'm not going to watch that.
00:33:41.000So I think what happens in their minds, and again, maybe I'm over pathologizing here, but I think this is probably a reasonable assessment of the potential motivation here.
00:34:14.000Like when they stood inside the old building and just stood in the hallways and I was like, the government can operate from anywhere digitally.
00:34:20.000It's not a real insurrection would be cutting off the electricity to the, to the continent.
00:34:25.000Like if you want to talk about insurrection and they were like, huh, he's right.
00:34:29.000Well, the other thing, too, about that day, it's like the media only showed you the violence.
00:34:35.000They only showed you the little pieces, the clips right at the Capitol of the windows being broken and Ashley Babbitt being killed and all that.
00:35:01.000They conflate the rally, which occurred some ways away from the Capitol, with the insurrection.
00:35:08.000So for a lot of people, maybe like your parents, Ian, who don't actually investigate or know what's going on, their image of this is probably Trump brought hundreds of thousands of people to the Capitol and stood outside and said, Exactly.
00:35:23.000and shut it down. Whereas what really happened is that there was a rally
00:35:27.000blocks away where a bunch of people rallied and waved little American flags
00:35:31.000and then Trump while he was still speaking people went to the Capitol.
00:35:34.000Yeah and the people that were breaking in, they were breaking in windows at the
00:35:39.000Capitol 15 minutes before Trump stopped speaking. Who were those people?
00:35:43.000This guy Ray Epps that's been in the news lately.
00:35:46.000He and his crew were taking down all the fencing and all the signs that said, do not enter restricted area.
00:35:52.000They took down all that fencing so that when the people walk from the speech to the Capitol building, they didn't know that they were entering a restricted area.
00:36:00.000And a lot of the defendants are charged with that, entering a restricted area.
00:36:03.000And they said that we didn't see anything that said it was restricted.
00:36:06.000Is there video of Rey and other people removing those signs?
00:36:56.000No, they just won't look at the video whether it's fake or not if it doesn't support their narrative.
00:37:03.000This past week they just released three more angles of Ashley Babbitt's death that were taken from different places in the hall and you can see Ashley Babbitt was actually telling the people breaking the windows to stop that.
00:37:42.000What, somebody punched through a window and then she stood up and they saw her and they fired?
00:37:46.000Yeah, well the window had been broken and you know, I don't know why she got in that window.
00:37:54.000But there is video of her telling people to stop breaking stuff, stop doing that,
00:38:01.000talking to the police saying you need more people up here, you've got to stop this.
00:38:05.000She was on the side of the police and her husband Aaron says that he he feels like she She knew that she was claustrophobic and he thinks that just sort of the crush of the people coming up and all the chaos caused her to panic and to jump into the window and And that's when the police officer fired.
00:38:28.000And if you watch the video, Bird, the police officer, has his gun trained at that window for like 30, 45 seconds.
00:38:43.000And while he's standing there pointing the gun, people are right here beside or near him Hitting the window with two-by-fours and trying to break the window.
00:39:09.000Because he didn't feel threatened, obviously, otherwise he'd focus on the other side of things.
00:39:13.000But I, you know, my assumption, just my assumption, is that he sees someone smash the window and he goes, that son of a... And he pulls his gun, he's like, come on, do it!
00:39:27.000So that's why he had his gun drawn at the full time, because he wanted whoever broke that window, for whatever they did, he was going to get them.
00:39:34.000And so when she came in, she's the one who got the bullet.
00:39:38.000So how do you, you know, I think what we see when, you know, you make the movie Capital Punishment, you said you just said your agent wouldn't even watch it.
00:39:46.000What's happening is a natural sorting algorithm is occurring.
00:39:48.000People who are willing to say, I will challenge my perceptions.
00:39:53.000And that's why you have people like Bridget Phetasy, politically homeless, now more aligned with intellectual dark web types, conversing with Ben Shapiro conservatives, because these are all people who are willing to be wrong and have their perception challenged.
00:40:06.000What's being sorted between, it's being sorted between two groups, those who don't want out, who just want to be told what to think, and those who are more inquisitive, more discerning.
00:40:15.000I mean, I've said something similar to this before, there's the uninitiated and the more discerning, the people who don't watch the news, who don't investigate, and the people who do.
00:40:27.000So knowing what you know, having to fire your own agent, where do you think all of this is going to lead to with what they're doing with law enforcement, January 6th committee, and the fact that regular people are refusing to even learn the truth?
00:40:46.000And what they're doing to these defendants now is railroading them into pleas, plea deals.
00:40:52.000You know, most of them are charged with, you're facing 28 years, you go before a D.C.
00:40:57.000jury that's 96% Democrat, I don't like your chances.
00:41:00.000If you plead guilty to this one little felony, Then you know you maybe do six months or maybe even you just get probation, but you can't vote anymore.
00:41:09.000You don't can't own a firearm and they are they're basically by doing this they are neutralizing a whole group of people that disagree with them and the intention that they're trying to spread a ripple through the community of you know by per by prosecuting these people so publicly
00:41:30.000they're going to try they're sending the message that don't don't ever be one of
00:41:33.000these people or we'll do this to you so i think the government is never going to give that up they're going to
00:41:38.000run that into the ground and the only thing we can do is try to
00:41:41.000fight that you just said something very scary You go before a jury that's 96% Democrat.
00:41:48.000We can't function as a constitutional republic if there are two tribes, and I mean that literally, and they will put you in prison if you're in the opposing tribe.
00:42:00.000system is that you have to be licensed to practice law in D.C.
00:42:04.000You can't, like, if you get arrested in Florida and you have a good lawyer, you can't bring him with you unless he's, you know, licensed to practice in D.C.
00:42:13.000So all these lawyers, they're all D.C.
00:42:16.000residents, 96% of them are Democrats too, and they literally hate the people that they're defending.
00:42:24.000And so these court-appointed attorneys are really working for the government to try to punish these people that dared stand up to the Democrat Party.
00:42:34.000Judicial system is supposed to be non-partisan, I believe.
00:43:01.000In Pennsylvania, when the Republicans said, hey, this universal mail-in voting law is unconstitutional, the judge's response was, you're a Republican, so you lose.
00:43:25.000And now you have this ruling of unconstitutionality.
00:43:29.000It's Republican judges saying it's unconstitutional and Democrats saying it is.
00:43:34.000If we're at the point, and we are, if this is how the country is going to work, If you're a Republican, if you're a right-winger, and you advocate for a right-wing cause in D.C., you will go to prison because they will view... Bro.
00:43:48.000I didn't go to because of what you're saying now.
00:43:50.000I'm saying if you do something that is construed as a crime, I'm not saying like literally walking down the street, they're gonna come and arrest you.
00:43:57.000I'm saying if you are in a protest and advocating for something, if, I'll put it this way, if you brought a boat down to D.C.
00:44:04.000to protest abortion, Yeah, they're going to lock you up.
00:44:08.000They're going to throw the book at you.
00:44:10.000Whereas when Extinction Rebellion does it, it's a slap on the wrist, clear it out, tow it out, and then send them on their way.
00:44:15.000You know, I didn't go to the Robert Malone big speech in like, I think it's February 23rd, or no, it was a month ago or something, three weeks ago.
00:44:20.000And I'm still, I'm almost kicking myself because I didn't go out of fear.
00:44:25.000I was afraid that the government was going to stage a false flag and then arrest a bunch of people.
00:44:33.000That's what they're trying to do, is make everybody scared.
00:44:35.000That's why they're doing this to these people.
00:44:38.000That's why the overwhelming show of force in their little suburban neighborhoods, handcuffing their wives and daughters, that's what they're doing.
00:44:45.000And even me, after I went, On January 6th and I shot a bunch of iPhone stuff and just like a tourist, I was afraid to tell anybody that I went right after it happened because I was like, I'm not going to post these pictures because the FBI might look through the pictures and find somebody, you know, in the crowd behind me or something.
00:45:06.000It's like, it was such a pervasive attitude of like, they're coming after us, you know?
00:45:14.000I think you're right about them making an example of the people who were involved in January 6th because I think that's what they're doing with Joe Rogan right now.
00:45:20.000They're like, if we can get the biggest guy and make an example of him.
00:45:23.000And I wanted to say, too, this talk about the jury is making me wonder if this is what drives a national divorce.
00:45:29.000I don't know that there's a way to coexist in a world where if you get arrested for something like a traffic ticket or something in D.C.
00:45:36.000and you have to go before a court, you know for a fact that they're going to throw a book at you, going to throw the book at you because they disagree with your politics.
00:46:29.000Well, I think the reason that they're talking about this, the Democrats that are talking about civil war, it's honest, that's what they want.
00:47:33.000I was reading about it last night, and it's saying, like, if there's any issue anywhere, that, like, economic or environmental, any, like, severe issue, they say, it's like the word severe is in there, and who defines that?
00:47:44.000The president, apparently, that they can just, what is it, like, morph all power?
00:47:48.000I didn't go so far on it last night, but is it that they can morph all powers under one branch of government?
00:47:53.000Are you familiar with Presidential Directive 51?
00:47:57.000It may just be a stupid statement made by Bush.
00:48:00.000It's been revised several times under the previous presidents.
00:48:03.000I think even Trump may have revised it.
00:48:05.000Basically says that if there is any kind of disaster anywhere in the world, the president has the authority to dissolve the government and reform it.
00:48:13.000Under a single branch, a constitutional government, so it would have to abide by the original rules, and the three branches of government would be controlled by the national continuity coordinator under the executive branch.
00:48:31.000But it's an interesting circumstance when one branch asserts the authority over the other two, and then one of those branches by which they're subjugated by this other branch says, we reject your authority.
00:48:42.000It doesn't really make sense how that would play out.
00:48:44.000Like, if the executive branch says, you report to us now, and the court says, we hereby decree we don't.
00:48:49.000Well, the guys with guns are gonna show up and say, yes, you do.
00:50:22.000Not like they're taking people in Australia to, you know, work camps to rot them out till they die.
00:50:27.000But it's crazy to me that there's a video out of Australia where the cops show up to a guy's house unannounced and they say, sir, you have tested positive for COVID and you are now being indefinitely quarantined.
00:50:44.000Yeah, the Germans used typhus as an excuse.
00:50:47.000They said a lot of the Jewish population had typhus.
00:50:49.000I don't know if that was the reason for taking them on the trains, but maybe that was like, for your own safety, we don't want you to get sick.
00:50:54.000It was one of the propaganda things they were claiming about, oh, these ghettos are dirty and they have typhus, so they have to be taken to special facilities.
00:51:36.000It's like what they're doing with Rogan.
00:51:40.000You have to be careful or the government will just erase your point of view, demonize you, destroy your ability to express yourselves if you have wrong think, if you have a bad opinion.
00:51:53.000They used to ostracize people, throw them out of the country and not let them back in.
00:51:56.000But now, that was before electricity and telephones and stuff.
00:51:59.000Yeah, they don't even have to do that now.
00:52:02.000Well, that's why it's called character assassination.
00:52:04.000The entire idea is you neutralize the threat that somebody poses by telling the truth or by stating some facts that you find to be inconvenient.
00:52:14.000Or by lying, sure, you can perform a character assassination on someone who has actually lied, but yeah, it's very frightening.
00:52:19.000And at some point, you wonder how much they really have to do to cover anything up, how much information they really need to hide from the people.
00:52:28.000It seems to me They take like a wait-and-watch approach, and if the person ends up getting busted, it almost doesn't matter if they were right or wrong.
00:52:35.000speaking the truth and then even if the facts seem fishy to the general public
00:52:38.000and they're not willing to buy into your narrative they're gonna be too scared to
00:52:41.000say anything. They take like a wait-and-watch approach and if the
00:52:44.000person ends up getting busted it almost doesn't matter if they were right or
00:52:47.000wrong they're like I don't want that to happen to me. Right.
00:52:50.000This is what I've been saying for a while.
00:53:16.000And it's crazy when I meet cops who are like, I'm a big fan of the show, and I'm just like, I hope you're one of the good ones, because we got too many bad ones.
00:53:23.000The Capitol Police are all some really evil people.
00:53:25.000I mean, you look at what they were saying on TV, how they were lying about things.
00:53:29.000I get that there was a bad fight and there was rioting and stuff.
00:53:31.000I'm not discrediting that or anything like that.
00:53:33.000But it's crazy how They're willing to just say the most absurd and ridiculous statements.
00:53:40.000I was you know, the craziest thing is there like the stress that the left is claiming the stress of it resulted in officers taking their own lives and stuff like that.
00:53:46.000Yeah, I'm like, come on man, you know, we don't know why those officers some officers did take their own lives.
00:53:51.000Yeah, and I don't know if that's related or not, but it's just such a dirty dirty thing.
00:53:56.000They're milking this as much as they can.
00:53:58.000I will tell you this, you know what I'm most frustrated with?
00:54:01.000The people who actually rioted, fought with cops, and tried to break in and literally broke in the building.
00:54:05.000Because it's just like watching people, you know, it's like watching someone walking down the road and they're like on the side of a cliff and then they look to their left and start to walk towards the cliff and you're like, please don't do that and they go, I'll be fine!
00:54:18.000Like Alex Jones was there saying, stop, don't go inside, don't do it.
00:54:28.000Well, if you see in the movie, you just see we have all these people, suspicious looking people, exhorting the crowd, come this way, you know, get in here, go into the Capitol, break in.
00:54:40.000You know, they're just constantly berating these people, screaming at them.
00:54:44.000And you also have the Capitol Police who are in many instances the aggressors here.
00:54:50.000They were firing flashbangs and tear gas grenades and pepper spray into the middle of the crowd.
00:55:25.000They were just dancing in the street playing music.
00:55:27.000One cop from the police line at the far end of West Florissant Casually walked up, pulled a flashbang, and just threw it into a crowd of dancing people.
00:55:41.000People then started screaming, running towards the police yelling, and then all of a sudden people who didn't live in the neighborhood started smashing windows and stealing stuff.
00:57:07.000However, I should point out that according to the Major Cities Chiefs Association, 72% of major city law enforcement agencies had officers harmed during the BLM riots.
00:57:26.000I mean, I think it's horrible when anyone gets injured or is assaulted.
00:57:30.000If you're gonna show up to Attila's gym and arrest the owners or try and prosecute them and seize money from their bank accounts, you want sympathy from me.
00:57:39.000The police in this country have lost- I have no sympathy for that guy, no.
00:57:42.000No, I'm just, look man, there are small offices and departments, I'll put it this way, sheriff's offices with duly elected law enforcement.
00:58:25.000That's what we've seen over the past two years.
00:58:27.000The people, the cops who stayed on during the BLM riots after all the disrespect.
00:58:31.000That's a great mental test, psychological test.
00:58:34.000Are you willing to endure extreme pressure where everyone hates you, where we won't support you, and you shut your mouth and get on your knees?
00:58:42.000And these officers who stayed said yes.
00:59:02.000If there ever was a group of people who were going to goose step to the marching orders of a despot, it is the modern police that have remained through all of this.
00:59:14.000Refusing to stand up for themselves, refusing to stand up for others, falling in line over overtly illegal orders and rule by decree.
00:59:22.000I'm not going to defend any of those people.
00:59:23.000Yeah, when you talk about illegal orders, because it's called law enforcement.
00:59:27.000So if you're getting illegal orders from a top-down authority and you're the law enforcement, you're supposed to not follow the illegal order and stay lawful.
00:59:52.000And you see what's going on with the BLM mural painted in New York City, the 27 officers who defended it, an illegal seizure of taxpayer funds for a political message.
01:00:02.000And the police were like, boss told me to do it.
01:00:15.000Despite all of the media propaganda, a large number of the American people, or a large swath of the population, are still seeing through this.
01:00:21.000According to a Rasmussen Report survey that was done back in July, only about 50% of the population who was surveyed at that time supported Nancy Pelosi's January 6th committee in investigating that.
01:00:32.000Whereas two-thirds of American citizens surveyed wanted an investigation into the 2020 BLM riots.
01:00:39.000So no matter how much they're lying about this or trying to call this an insurrection and tell us to ignore that, the majority of the American people do see the truth about it.
01:01:14.000But I am wondering if this is even a real story.
01:01:17.000I know there have been conversations about locking down the Super Bowl, but that seems weird to me.
01:01:22.000Almost like the idea was seeded specifically to ruin the Freedom Convoy.
01:01:27.000Because right now, regular people don't know, like, I'm talking about average people sitting at home, of which there are very few, because I think most people are polarized.
01:01:34.000They're like, I don't know a whole lot about what's going on with that convoy thing.
01:01:36.000But the manipulation, the propaganda, has mostly failed.
01:01:40.000You go on Reddit, and people are like, they're just working class dudes.
01:01:49.000And I'm suspicious of, you know, DHS's warnings.
01:01:53.000It's like, you know, I think that it's likely that they could be just sort of trying to say there's a threat out there that's not really there.
01:02:03.000To make it seem like, you know, those extreme people, those truckers, they're going to try to kill your Super Bowl.
01:02:09.000Public warnings just don't make a lot of sense to me.
01:02:11.000If a military comes out and is like, China has UFOs, we think that China has UFOs.
01:02:14.000I was like, come on, dude, what are you telling me for?
01:03:06.000And the government guy was going, what are you, on Putin's side?
01:03:13.000It's so funny how we've returned to that too.
01:03:15.000I remember during the 2012 election when Mitt Romney said something about Russia being a growing threat, and of course he would, he's like an establishment swamp creature.
01:03:22.000But the response from the left was, oh my goodness, isn't this hysterical?
01:03:26.000The 80s called, they want their villain back.
01:03:28.000And then in 2016, when we're even more removed from that era, it's Russia, Russia, Russia.
01:03:35.000It's like, we were joking about this in Burn After Reading, when she wants to sell the information to the Russians, and everyone in the CIA is like, the Russians?
01:03:56.000If a bunch of truckers showed up in D.C.
01:04:01.000and then something happened that a mass casualty event took the lives of these truckers, how do you think the left, the establishment left, and many leftists would react?
01:07:09.000If you've got liberals, conservatives, moderates, you know, traditionalists, progressives that are all in alignment, but they all agree with liberty and being inquisitive.
01:07:22.000Jimmy Dore is progressive and lefty, but he believes in the truth.
01:07:25.000So we like the guy, you know, because, you know, we disagree on politics across, you know, all day and night.
01:07:30.000It's clear that what divides us is not policy.
01:07:33.000It is simply there is a mob of people that want to be a mob, and there's everyone else who want to live and understand and solve problems.
01:07:43.000Those are the two groups that are clashing right now.
01:07:45.000And the left is kind of... the way they've been brought to this point by the Democrat Party and the leaders in that movement is they've been told over and over again, you are the good people.
01:07:58.000And it's that self-righteousness of like that surety and that self-righteousness.
01:08:04.000They hate gays, they hate black people, they hate everybody.
01:08:07.000You know, you're one of the good people, so no matter what they say, we have to remain above them.
01:08:13.000I was having a deep conversation last night about this, and about after 9-11.
01:08:18.000All of a sudden, this narrative of good and evil started getting shoved down my throat by George Bush and everybody else around him, and it was like, they're bad, you're good, we're the heroes, God's on our side, good versus evil, good versus evil.
01:08:27.000Then superhero movies started coming out.
01:09:37.000But not any longer than you have to be.
01:09:38.000As soon as you get the new information that shows that your previously held assumptions were incorrect, you have an obligation to accept those.
01:09:44.000I think 99.9% of humanity has agreed that killing people for no reason is wrong.
01:09:51.000And a slightly large single-digit percentage probably agrees with preemptive murder for the sake of ideology.
01:09:58.000Like if the Iraqi president is so dangerous, it's okay to get rid of like 80,000 citizens.
01:10:04.000Yeah, communists tend to be, you know, morally depraved.
01:10:41.000So, like, if some guy in a house starts breaking into other people's homes and killing people, and then we go, and he's in one of the houses, so we're like, the only thing we can do to stop this guy is burn the house down, but, you know, might hurt somebody else.
01:10:54.000Like, this guy's already killed so many people.
01:10:56.000This is good, because I think you're talking about individual one-on-one interactions.
01:11:00.000There, now we can start to get a nuance of good and evil.
01:11:03.000But in the society, it's dangerous to slap that label around.
01:11:06.000Well, yeah, I mean, whether you're talking about firebombing Dresden or firebombing Tokyo or nuclear bombs being dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, you can agree that one particular side of the conflict was correct and had to win while also saying, this was objectively morally evil.
01:11:21.000You should not make civilians a target of warfare.
01:12:10.000Trying to help people flourish, stopping the bad, stopping the pain, stopping the suffering, and promoting growth is typically a good thing.
01:12:18.000When you have other organizations that lie on purpose to create destruction and cause pain and suffering, and then lie to convince people that we're the evil ones, that's evil.
01:12:31.000I know man but now we're talking about like living and lying and knowing you're lying and acting anyway.
01:12:48.000Yeah, like if they were here, I wouldn't be like, la-di-da, I'd be like, free these guys, but they're out of sight, out of mind, so I know it.
01:12:55.000But Ian, so what I'm catching at, I think you actually believe so firmly and deeply in morality that you're arguing for moral consistency, but you're seeing that as saying that morality doesn't exist.
01:13:08.000I really think on some level you do believe in good and evil, you just aren't acknowledging it.
01:13:11.000I really think you do, because you get really upset when a person is hypocritical about their moral values, and why would that be upsetting for you if good and evil weren't real?
01:13:36.000Are you going to tell me you've never made a moral decision because you thought it was the right thing to do and not because it jives with society?
01:13:52.000Because there was something I wanted to bring up, actually in all of this context, and it's the response we saw from the establishment in the left over Alec Baldwin and the shooting.
01:14:01.000Because I've gone off on the Alec Baldwin thing many a time.
01:14:07.000Based on everything I've already read about what happened with Alec Baldwin, for those that aren't familiar, he was on a movie set, he had a live gun, a single-action revolver, Um, I can't remember what ammo type it was, I don't think it was .45, I'm not sure.
01:14:20.000But, uh, he shot and killed the cinematographer, pointed the gun at her, pulled the hammer back, then they say the gun went off and killed her.
01:14:27.000He said he didn't know that she got shot for 45 minutes, which is to imply that while he was holding the gun and pointing it at her, pulling the hammer back, and then it banged and went off in his hand, for which he felt the recoil.
01:14:37.000When she collapsed to the ground dying, he simply walked away and didn't bother to ask what was going on.
01:15:08.000I don't know how you could argue that all these events took place that coincidentally landed a live bullet in a gun where the sear was broken so the gun went off.
01:15:20.000But Nick, you actually worked with that armorer.
01:15:24.000Yeah, when I saw that, you know, I was reading about the Alec Baldwin thing when it first broke and it said, you know, The Armorer there.
01:15:30.000It was her second movie and I was like, oh my gosh, it's Hannah.
01:15:33.000I mean, you know, I had done The Old Way with Nicolas Cage back in August and she was The Armorer on that film.
01:16:21.000The armorer brings the gun to you, shows you everything that's in the gun.
01:16:25.000If you're firing the gun, you know, the armorer will say, you have two rounds here, and there are blanks, you pull the trigger twice, and then it's done.
01:16:51.000I don't know how in the world, you know, that happened with Alec Baldwin.
01:16:56.000With the first AD, just handing him a gun, Alec Baldwin not looking in the gun, and then pulling the trigger.
01:17:04.000You worked with this Hannah, this armorer, and when you worked with her, she showed you the gun and explained to you the ammo, all that stuff, as you described.
01:17:13.000Well, and the other thing that I read about the Alec Baldwin shooting is that Hannah, the armorer, was not in the room because SAG has these COVID restrictions and people have designations of A, B, or C. And if you're in the B group or the C group, you can't be indoors with people in the A group.
01:17:35.000So Hannah was not allowed to be in that church when he was using the gun.
01:17:42.000But it sounds like the production team is liable for some sort of felonious activity.
01:18:21.000Like out in the West, out in the desert, a bunch of them, just kind of like 20 people making a movie on the fly, kind of like having fun, drinking beer at night.
01:18:28.000And a lot of it too was that, you know, he had had some crew problems or whatever.
01:19:32.000I was the one saying that I've heard that they were doing target practice with live rounds on set and they were a mix of live rounds and dummy rounds and they... I've heard that too.
01:19:40.000I've been reading about it and I don't know how to confirm or deny it but I mean come on there was a live round on set so... Sometimes they will... usually it's a different day but if you're shooting...
01:19:49.000Like, if you're shooting a lot in a movie, they will take you to a range and let you feel what the recoil is on a real gun.
01:19:58.000So that when you're acting, and you're shooting blanks, you can act like, you know, you're actually firing the real thing.
01:20:05.000So that happens, but that's usually like, if that happens, it's on a different day and it's totally separate from... I mean, if they're just walking around back and, you know, shooting some cans or something, that's not acceptable.
01:20:42.000Well, I think the only thing people see as political is the aftermath of him getting away with it.
01:20:48.000And he's getting away with it because he's part of the left-wing establishment.
01:20:53.000They don't want to go after him because... Just like you were saying earlier, the people in DC are going to be put in front of Democrat jurors who will convict them.
01:21:03.000Alec Baldwin will never see a day in court.
01:21:04.000You think the people are like, I know he did it, and I know he's responsible, but I love his work so much that I don't want to put him in jail because I want to see another Alec Baldwin movie.
01:21:50.000One question I'd like to ask, Nick, I'm curious, as you were working on this documentary, what was the most interesting thing you discovered?
01:21:59.000Well, when we went into it, the original title of the movie was The Trouble with Free Speech, because I saw this as like the government suppressing free speech and trying to keep these people from, you know, deter these people from ever coming to Washington and making their voices heard again.
01:22:15.000But what we wound up discovering is that by talking to these people, Who had been visited by the FBI and the way they were being treated and that that was the most shocking thing.
01:22:27.000It's just like every story in this movie.
01:22:29.000You just can't believe that this is America.
01:22:32.000They are coming to these people's houses.
01:22:34.000These are people that have never been arrested for anything before in their lives.
01:23:39.000So we mentioned you worked with her, you've been in TV shows and movies.
01:23:43.000How has it been trying to continue that career after making a documentary like this and voting for Trump?
01:23:48.000I can't imagine they're very happy with you.
01:23:52.000Well, no, but you know, I have, I've worked in the business long enough that I have friends who know who I am and hire me anyway, you know, and you know, sometimes it's not, you know, I don't know.
01:24:04.000I still continue to get work here and there.
01:24:09.000That may be because I'm old or it may be because I'm a right wing, radical Republican insurrectionist, you know.
01:24:17.000I don't know, but like I say, I have relationships that sustain me to this day, and I'm also, at this point in my life, I'm really much more interested in pursuing movies that I want to make, that I want to have some control over, and I'm not so much interested in just trying to get a job in somebody else's left-wing garbage.
01:24:38.000What are you working on now, or is there something you've worked on recently?
01:24:42.000Well, Terror on the Prairie is a movie that's coming out with Gina Carano.
01:25:21.000This is the 50th anniversary this year of that game.
01:25:27.000All those guys have refused the silver medal to this day and the one guy that passed away put it in his will that no one in his family can ever take that silver medal because they were just blatantly cheated out of the gold medal.
01:26:25.000They played the three seconds the first time and threw the ball out of bounds and time ran out and the referee said, Oh no, he called timeout before, before the ball was thrown in.
01:27:05.000It was... Well, it was... No, it was two pro-Soviet judges and two pro-America judges.
01:27:11.000And the fifth judge was supposed to be this judge from Egypt who was pro-Western.
01:27:18.000But when the Israeli athletes were murdered nine days before this game, Egypt pulled all their athletes out of the Olympics and that judge was not there and they put in another judge who was a Russian.
01:27:42.000And also with the killing of the Israeli athletes at that Olympics, it's sort of, that's kind of why this story got forgotten because it wasn't as important as that, you know.
01:27:52.000What's a budget for a movie like that?
01:27:56.000Well, I see it as a four-hour documentary.
01:28:00.000I could probably make it about a million, 1.5.
01:28:04.000How does a person come across money like that to make a movie?
01:28:08.000Well, you gotta convince investors that you can make some money with it.
01:28:15.000A lot of times with a movie like this, you pitch it to ESPN or you pitch it to Netflix.
01:28:47.000Yeah, I just recently found out that's kind of how Hollywood works, is when they make a movie, they make a corporation that owns the movie, and then they can give people percentages of that corporation that work on that movie.
01:28:56.000And every movie kind of has to have its own company.
01:29:39.000And stores of value, different cryptocurrencies have different characteristics, so they're easier, harder to move.
01:29:45.000And then sometimes you get into it where certain types of crypto can do things, like on a certain network you can give someone one and it'll give you a thousand views on the network.
01:29:52.000So they're called smart contracts that they can build in so that they actually do things instead of just being like bland currency.
01:29:59.000Well, like how do you buy stuff with it?
01:30:02.000You gotta sell it, usually for dollars, on Coinbase or something like that, or you can trade it to someone that wants to take it for currency.
01:31:46.000You can go online and search Bitcoin addresses and see where the money has come from and where it's gone.
01:31:53.000So if you post on your website, like, here's my Bitcoin address, I can take it, I can search it, and I can see where you've put your money.
01:31:59.000You got a smart enough computer, you can track every single transaction, every single, you know, everywhere, no matter what they do with it.
01:32:21.000We're going to have a members-only segment coming up at TimCast.com at about 11 p.m., so with your support as members, we're able to keep doing all this work, and we'd be eternally grateful if you would help us out.
01:32:30.000But now, let's read what y'all have to say in the Super Chats.
01:32:40.000Even if we can somehow get rid of our authoritarian leaders, how can we as citizens ever come back from this great divide the state-funded media has worked so hard to create?
01:32:49.000I would like to say I think it is about friendship.
01:32:51.000Like what you were saying, Nick, in Hollywood, no matter what your political things are, you have friends.
01:32:55.000You have a community of people that know you and love you and that you love that will work with you no matter what your political values are.
01:33:00.000And I think that's going to always be the case.
01:33:03.000All right, Samuel Powell says, when I try to log in to TimCast.com on Chrome, it has the font white on white background.
01:33:09.000But if I log in on Brave, it does the normal black on white.
01:33:13.000I don't know if this is a glitch or Google trying to censor you.
01:33:19.000There have been some bugs, because we recently did a major upgrade on the site, which is going to streamline the process and reduce the errors.
01:33:27.000This could mean that there are some errors popping up, so if anybody's having any issues, just email members at timcast.com and we'll get you set up.
01:33:35.000All right, Jeffrey says Super Bowl tickets are like $10,000.
01:35:01.000But then, you know, just everyone can realize that when the really awful Super Bowl commercials come out, we can just make videos about them and talk about why they're bad.
01:35:16.000I can't wait for history books to talk about the Super Bowl commercial that saved America.
01:35:20.000Like, whatever company donates a lot of money to either A, getting the history books made, or B, funding the political career of a politician who decides they need to use that curriculum is just gonna be blown up, like, this Super Bowl ad was revolutionary.
01:38:38.000I just don't understand why anybody would be a fan of those people.
01:38:42.000I was watching Hasan this morning, when I was watching his take on Joe Rogan, and he was like, Joe Biden is way more racist than Joe Rogan.
01:38:52.000I'm like, I can understand watching Hasan, at least in that capacity, because he was calm about his approach.
01:38:58.000It's probably why he got so much bigger than the Young Turks.
01:39:01.000Young Turks should try not being so mean to people, because it's kind of off-putting.
01:39:04.000Let me quickly deal with my theory about the meaning of life.
01:39:06.000When you talk about the word mean, in math, mean is an average.
01:39:08.000So when they say, what is the meaning of life?
01:39:10.000I believe the meaning is the process of bringing life back to the middle.
01:40:57.000It's about a family in the 1880s and I play a Civil War captain who's unrepentant and has a little revenge that he has to execute on a number of people.
01:41:18.000Ah, so he's mad at the North and he's No, it's more than that.
01:41:21.000I mean, he was, it's sort of like, I don't want to give away the whole plot, but you know, but he, uh, you know, he, there was a number of people who were traitors to him that got his daughter killed.
01:41:34.000So you're using a single action revolvers.
01:41:36.000I'd imagine yeah, yeah Winchester's yeah, yeah, and it was that was that where
01:41:42.000Hannah was the armorer or no no that was not as previous She was on but it was the other one with Nicholas Cage, but
01:41:48.000it's similar I mean that one was kind of set in the same same time
01:41:51.000period yes So I you know I was I was trying to figure out all the guns
01:41:55.000and stuff when I was reading about Alec Baldwin like what?
01:41:57.000Gun would it have been what ammo what you know what size and all that looking at the era of the movies
01:42:02.000So, like, right when the story broke, I researched the premise of the film, the time period, to figure out what kind of gun he'd be using on set.
01:44:38.000I get people who are tribal leftists to argue against their own positions because I adopt the position they're supposedly for.
01:44:44.000So, you know, I can make comments that are seemingly pro-choice and then all of a sudden have these tribal leftists on Facebook making comments that are strangely pro-life.
01:44:54.000Like, not completely, but weirdly in favor of government control of healthcare, restricting women's access.
01:45:00.000It's called, you know how Bugs Bunny had the duck season, rabbit season thing?
01:45:04.000And then he's like, it's rabbit season, flips it on Daffy.
01:45:08.000So it's like, I do a segment that argues the left's position, and then the Young Turks come out and make a video insulting me and mocking the idea that actually benefits the left's perspective on privilege.
01:45:17.000I didn't do that on purpose, but it's just a funny circumstance.
01:45:20.000And speaking of pro-choice on the After Show, big discussion about Gosnell on the documentary.
01:45:25.000Yeah, we're going to be... You guys, seriously, if you don't know the story of Gosnell, you want to check out this members-only segment we're going to do.
01:45:32.000It's so gruesome that I don't think we can actually talk about it live on YouTube.
01:45:35.000And it's not about, like, an overt, you know, getting censored thing.
01:45:38.000It's an overtly unfamily-friendly thing that's going to make a lot of people un... Gruesome.
01:45:59.000Gabriel McLeod says, on a podcast with Jordan Peterson and Sam Harris, it was said that, quote, no amount of evidence could ever be offered to change the minds of people who do not value evidence.
01:46:08.000People will remain willfully ignorant because it is safe.
01:46:11.000And that's why it's just, don't argue with these people.
01:46:41.000I want to figure out a way for people to share content on the internet for free and then it to track the content back to the creator so that, like, I can let you sell my movie without having to interact with you.
01:46:52.000You'll get a cut and then the majority goes to me because I'm the creator.
01:46:55.000But just for it to be able to be followed and then I think I'll cut back on piracy.
01:47:16.000Chris Rock even told me, he said, you're doing Al Gore, aren't you?
01:47:19.000Because it was very stiff and, you know, it was just sort of, you know, the characterization.
01:47:25.000But, I mean, you know, that movie was, it's one of those movies that doesn't say which party anybody's in, you know, and they never identified it as Democrat or Republican.
01:47:36.000But, you know, you have the progressive sort of black candidate, Chris Rock, and I'm the vice president who thinks it's my turn to be president.
01:48:02.000And a good example of this is, if you think the law is what matters, a big mistake the Republicans made just going for judges, there are many laws in the books that we don't enforce.
01:48:11.000Have you ever seen these stories about like wacky old laws?
01:48:14.000There's like a what I like to reference where it's you can't put a pie on your windowsill on Sundays or something like that.
01:48:19.000And it was because back in the day when you lived in these small towns it would attract bears or something.
01:48:23.000Now it's meaningless so you put a pie on your windowsill and nobody cares.
01:48:29.000So the law means a lot less than cultural enforcement.
01:48:34.000If tomorrow every person in America woke up and said, you know, it should be illegal to do jumping jacks, then the cops would be like, hey, look, everybody wants us to arrest you for doing this.
01:48:51.000Greta Thanos, alright, says, people need to wake up and realize the tactics being deployed are in direct defiance of the Constitution, with the intent to destroy the Constitution.
01:49:00.000This entire scenario ends with the extermination of anyone of Western European descent.
01:49:05.000I don't know about that part at the end.
01:49:07.000I think it's more about ideologies because if you look at the Latino migrants in this country, they're starting to become overwhelmingly pro-freedom and they're siding with Republicans on a lot of these issues.
01:49:18.000So a lot of people, you know, I can't stand the people who think race is the key component of everything that's going on because it's not, it's ideology.
01:49:47.000All right, Tony Bones says, Nick Searcy aka US Marshal, Art Mullen, and I just started re-watching Justified, still as great as I remember.
01:52:47.000Like, after all said and done, it is about hanging out with your friends.
01:52:50.000Well, I mean, to be fair, Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell realizing they're friends and then just like, you know, going on top of a building and watching a Hunger Games-style fight of poor people while they drink expensive wine.
01:53:03.000That's the kind of friendship they'd have.
01:53:04.000Maybe they are friends and it's theater.
01:53:09.000Cornelius says, Ian, I love you brother.
01:53:57.000We are planning on hiring a chef, but I don't know to what degree we can get a good chef.
01:54:03.000I had a chef hit me up just now during the show and he wants to come on and talk about part of it.
01:54:08.000So the idea is, with the new facility and as we're expanding, it'll actually be cheaper for us to have someone buy the food and cook it, as opposed to constantly ordering out.
01:54:19.000And for the crew, for a variety of reasons, we often do order so we can have events here, either for meetings or because we're having a get-together for, you know, we filmed the green room and so we need supplies.
01:54:31.000So we were thinking, I was thinking about it, I'm like, we could just hire someone.
01:54:34.000It would be so much cheaper to just pick up a bunch of steaks from the store and then just make some really healthy stuff.
01:55:52.000My buddy's dad gave him like 20 bucks an A. Well, I guess it depends on if you want to go off to a prestigious university, you gotta have a really high GPA.
01:58:12.000There have been, I think, three conversations we've had where you started arguing not based on what we're talking about, but on a different definition of the word.
02:03:10.000And I really, I think these people that are in prison, these people in solitary confinement, this is like the most maybe under-talked about, maybe next to the war in Yemen, the genocide in Yemen right now.
02:03:18.000This is like very, very... It's unbelievably awful.
02:03:22.000And, you know, there's a guy in there testifies about how he's been, how he was treated when he was in there by the prison guards.
02:03:29.000It is really, really sick, and it shouldn't be happening.
