Join us tonight as we talk about the Davos meetup, the Bank of America money woes, and why the ATF should be abolished. We also hear from DC Drano, a former Hollywood attorney who was banned from speaking on the internet in 2017.
00:01:18.000Especially considering you got the World Economic Forum basically saying that there's going to be a major cyber attack or cyber event happening soon.
00:02:46.000So I am a former Hollywood entertainment attorney that talks shit on the internet now, mostly in the form of memes, but I also just got back my Twitter after two years of being suspended.
00:03:22.000And I'm like, yeah, I assume I'm on all the lists.
00:03:25.000And they're like, no, no, you're on a government list, code orange, you're talking too much about election stuff.
00:03:31.000And I'm like, okay, well, I mean, 81 million my ass, I'm going to keep talking about it.
00:03:38.000And, sure enough, a couple weeks later I got banned for election misinformation in February 2021.
00:03:45.000And then Judicial Watch came out with the results of a FOIA request that showed that the state of California was emailing Twitter saying DC Drano is spreading election misinformation.
00:03:56.000I am a licensed attorney in the state of California and they shut down my free speech.
00:04:02.000I brought this stuff to Harmeet Dhillon and Ron Coleman.
00:04:38.000That's because they want you eating Bill Gates' moobs creating GMO seed oil fake meat.
00:04:42.000So that's why I decided to wear my brought to you by fake meat t-shirt that you could exclusively get on thebestpoliticalshirts.com, soon to be unbanned on Instagram with the moobs.
00:05:48.000My full name is Rogan O'Hanley and I was searching some hater comments on Twitter recently and someone wrote that Rogan O'Hanley is an old Gaelic term for a sad handjob.
00:06:54.0001.6 million people said, I voted, and 13%, so we're looking at like 200,000 people, said yes.
00:07:02.000You know what, I've been thinking a lot about World Economic Forum lately, and Klaus Schwab obsessed with like stakeholder capitalism, shareholder capitalism, evolving the system, the economic, and I'm like, you know what he's missing out on is statehood.
00:07:14.000Like statehood comes before your economic system.
00:07:18.000Statehood is a concept that exists without economics.
00:07:22.000And Klaus is obsessed, all he focuses on is economics and the economic structure of things.
00:07:26.000He's missing out on the political structure of things, which is, I think, paramount, is that we have statehood.
00:07:30.000We have local government, where you have decentralized structures of authority.
00:07:47.000They want to play a larger divide and conquer agenda as they take everything else for themselves.
00:07:52.000Because how else would they be able to get as rich as they are without them running larger Ponzi schemes on everyone else inside of the Not only the United States, but the entire world.
00:08:02.000And the conversations happening at Davos, I've been paying attention to them.
00:08:06.000They're out of the 1984 Orwellian hellscape.
00:08:10.000You can't even imagine the horrors that these people are describing.
00:08:13.000And they're cheering it on, talking about like, it's going to be incredible when you guys don't have any red meat.
00:08:18.000When you have mandatory requirement of making sure that you are reporting your carbon emissions, making sure that there's going to be regulations on speech, regulations on bitcoins, there's going to be global cyber attacks, there's going to be, you know, major attacks against free speech, and they're like, yeah, this is great, this is awesome, we need central bank digital currencies, we need Uh, places where you can't leave, where you're gonna be stuck in with 15-minute sustainable communities.
00:08:43.000This is absolutely crazy what they're doing and they deserve to be countered because their policies are becoming law.
00:08:53.000So they're testing this actually in the United Kingdom right now.
00:08:57.000It's where you're going to need permission to cross over from one neighborhood to another, where everything is 15 minutes inside of your community.
00:09:06.000So you don't need a car, so you get to walk or you get to ride around in your bike.
00:09:10.000To have a car and go from one community to another, you're only allowed a certain amount of times to do that.
00:09:15.000Then you need government permission in order to just travel in your car, and the main idea is to keep you in a prison, to keep you in a grid where you are stuck, and this is a pilot program that's going to be happening in a major UK town in just a few years from now, that they're going to be instituting with surveillance cameras, artificial intelligence, facial recognition, plate reading cameras, making sure that you are essentially living in a prison.
00:09:37.000Yeah, yeah, yeah, but this only affects poor people, right?
00:09:40.000So, you know, the rich people don't gotta worry about it?
00:09:53.000And they want more borders in order to control people better.
00:09:57.000There's a reason Klaus Schwab says China is the model for the world.
00:10:01.000That's because they've been testing a lot of their latest technocratic technology and enslavement of humanity in that country.
00:10:08.000Now they're going to be rolling it out everywhere else.
00:10:10.000What's this Cyber 9-11 stuff they've been talking about?
00:10:14.000They've been talking about that for a long time.
00:10:15.000They had a war game a couple months ago where they actually worked with the Russian government simulating larger cyber attacks that were supposed to be happening on the world and how they would deal with that.
00:10:27.000Where a lot of the very same kind of central players in COVID were talking about a pandemic situation that they were training for and drilling for right before COVID happened.
00:10:38.000So a couple months ago, they're training specifically a drill called Cyber Polygon, where they specifically were doing these larger tests of what's going to happen when everything in our online infrastructure gets shut down and is weaponized against the people.
00:10:52.000How are they going to be responding to it, this, as they're saying, and kind of foretelling that their next kind of bigger psyops, the next kind of bigger terrorist attack, is going to be online, is going to be digital, and is going to be affecting everyone, and potentially could have already started a couple days ago, especially what would happen with the FAA, with them essentially shutting down and not allowing airplane traffic for two hours in the United States, first time ever since 9-11.
00:11:17.000There's a cyber attack that did that, right?
00:11:28.000They literally have all these articles and documents where they're like, yes, this is how we're going to implement this vision of you being a slave and us having all the power over you.
00:12:11.000I said, hey, WEF is talking about a cyber attack and the governments are talking about it, but when we bring it up, they call us conspiracy theorists.
00:12:20.000And Elon actually responded to the tweet, and he just wrote under it, startling.
00:12:27.000Yeah, man, that's what you ultimately, I don't know if it's unhackable, but you need systems outside the system.
00:12:31.000Like, Klaus, this top-down authority thing doesn't work with statehood.
00:12:36.000You can't make it happen when local authorities have control and communication and delivery of goods.
00:12:42.000Like, if you have drone delivery services, like, we can get Jeff Bezos' Amazon to create, like, an orbital drone delivery system along with Elon's Starlink.
00:12:50.000I think we're really talking about some sort of freedom.
00:12:57.000Their enemy is pride in one's country.
00:13:00.000Because once you get rid of that, you could allow people to be internationalists.
00:13:03.000Because when you destroy a nation for the personal benefit of the few, these people don't care about the United States.
00:13:07.000They don't care about the Constitution.
00:13:09.000Contrary to a lot of people's beliefs, they hate the Constitution.
00:13:13.000They hate that people have the First Amendment and the Second Amendment.
00:13:15.000And they're doing everything in their power, they're manipulating people as much as they can.
00:13:20.000They're doing so many underhanded things in order to make sure that the rule of law, the Constitution, the most important rights that are extremely rare in human history, are obliterated and destroyed.
00:13:30.000That's exactly what they did in China.
00:13:32.000And what they didn't China is what they're going to be doing to the rest of the world very soon because a lot of their policies that they call for are literally being implemented slowly and surely look what happened to a Sri Lanka they complied that was another major test of the compliance system Sri Lanka had a 98% ESG social credit score.
00:13:48.000World Economic Forum saying Sri Lanka is going to be the best country out there.
00:13:52.000What's happening to Sri Lanka right now?
00:13:54.000Energy shortages, the schools are shut down, businesses are shut down, energy rationing, government taxing every little aspect of your life.
00:14:04.000This is their planned destruction of our life, and this is why California, this is why New Zealand, this is why Australia, this is why the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Sri Lanka are all adopting the same policies at the same time, top-down centralized control of the demolition of the entire Western world.
00:14:24.000It's serious, and the implications here are going to be very severe.
00:14:27.000I think we were talking a little bit before the show about the King of England and his ties to the World Economic Forum.
00:14:32.000I'm not too super He's one of the early kind of co-founders of the World Economic Forum and you'll see him, it's actually kind of interesting when they bring him on stage, I don't know if you guys can find the video, but they put like the fleur-de-lis behind him and it's like a crown over his head right when he's speaking.
00:14:48.000He is, I think that the WEF, I'm very confident, is his way of expanding England's imperialist intentions through the back door.
00:15:00.000They're like, oh, we don't need to put redcoats in every country, we just need to control the top players in government, media, and business, and then we can have a lot of control.
00:15:11.000You know, King Charles, or Klaus Schwab, he talks about how we have people in the Canadian parliament, and in the Canadian cabinet, and New Zealand, and Canada, New Zealand, and Australia are all constitutional monarchies ultimately subject to the authority of King Charles.
00:15:30.000And which three countries were the most oppressive during the COVID lockdowns?
00:15:34.000With the mandatory vaccines, with, you know, vaccine passports, It was those three countries.
00:15:56.000And they're posting bikini-clad women looking all happy.
00:16:00.000Meanwhile, three Native, like, indigenous Australian kids, like, threw burlap sacks over the barbed wire and tried to climb out and escape because they were forcefully relocated.
00:16:10.000And they had checkpoints because of that.
00:16:12.000They literally locked down entire cities looking for these three kids, which were a danger to society.
00:16:17.000They were imprisoning people and putting them in quarantine camps because they had disagreements and arguments with police officers who were just sick of someone and said, you know what?
00:16:26.000You tested positive, even though they did not.
00:16:29.000And those photos are actually from the Olympics.
00:16:31.000And a lot of the Australian Olympic team were using that facility previously before, and that's where they got all the pictures of all the hot bays.
00:16:37.000But essentially, it was just a camp that the government detained you for as long as they wanted to, without you having any kind of recourse.
00:16:48.000This is an important point to be made, though.
00:16:50.000Look at what happened with Claire Lehman from Quillette.
00:17:18.000That was the greatest psychological operation ever conducted on humanity in the history of the world.
00:17:24.000And if you, Went through that and obviously, you know, if you didn't get the jab or if you resisted the mass or whatever, you know, pat yourself on the back because that's quite impressive.
00:17:33.000I think America, I think they're actually, I think we actually achieved a huge victory.
00:17:37.000And I do want to give a lot of credit to the Canadian truckers.
00:17:40.000They set the wheels in motion, but I think they're like, crap, we still had, despite all that, despite trillions of propaganda, 30%, 40% of Americans did not fully comply.
00:17:52.000And it's probably going to be worse the second time around.
00:19:43.000And that's the last thing, that's the last step that they need.
00:19:46.000Fully controlling the internet, fully taking it over from people like Elon Musk and other individuals that are still allowing free speech, everything, and saying, this is now in our control for your safety and your health and well-being.
00:19:57.000Just one more point before we move on to this particular story.
00:20:02.000actually just did a very fascinating interview that I just retweeted talking about how the central controllers, people at the CIA, during COVID weren't looking out for your best interest, weren't talking about and making studies and looking into how to help people, how to give them early treatments.
00:20:16.000He goes on and talks about how the CIA used the The COVID-19 response to increase their top-down government, authoritarianism, and totalitarianism, and had this as an opportunity to run many psychological operations to see what they could get away with.
00:23:09.000The only thing that exists is the ledger itself.
00:23:13.000And when the ledger doesn't reflect the actual transaction, it doesn't matter, because the other bank went, we don't know, we don't have the money, and my bank said, we don't have the money either, your money is just gone.
00:23:24.000It's so hackable, that is so controllable, to think that these private companies have secret text files that have your money on it, that they can change at will, behind the scenes, or that someone else could hack it.
00:23:35.000At that point, I do believe crypto's more secure.
00:23:38.000Even though you could lose it and it could go to zero, You've got to diversify your assets, not necessarily in
00:23:44.000just what you invest in, but having crypto, having cash in the bank, having cash at home, and like you
00:23:49.000mentioned a few days ago, having gold.
00:23:51.000I mean, when things go south, you want to have tangible assets just in case.
00:24:54.000And we're hanging out, and he sits down with this manager guy in a suit, and he says, he pulls up his bank account, and he's pointing at things.
00:25:01.000He was like, look, look, right there, like CTA, charged me three times.
00:25:07.000Then my paycheck came in, and the guy was just like, okay, okay.
00:25:10.000He turns the monitor around, and then he starts typing stuff in.
00:25:13.000He spins it back around, and it says negative 400, and he puts the cursor on the negative and clicks backspace, and then he says, how does that look?
00:25:34.000the bank closed down a few weeks later.
00:25:36.000So I have to wonder, what may have happened was, this guy knew he was getting laid off, the manager,
00:25:42.000and so he was like, screw these people, and just transferred money.
00:25:45.000But I'm almost kind of like, was he screwing with us?
00:25:48.000Because there's no way he can do a hard input and just change someone's account.
00:25:52.000I think he can, they have discretionary, like a person on the phone can be like,
00:25:55.000yeah, I'll overwrite your $35 charge, but they only have a certain limit that they can overwrite.
00:26:00.000And then the manager is probably like $500 per customer per week or something you can... We used to be backed by gold.
00:26:07.000I mean, this is a relatively... The last hundred years, central banks, Federal Reserve, I mean, I'm sure everyone watching has knowledge on that.
00:26:13.000But I mean, there used to be when you said, hey, I'd like to take out money, they had gold to trade it in.
00:28:07.000What do you guys think about... Patriot Act gold.
00:28:09.000I think that the central bank digital currency that they're talking about doing is probably going to happen at some point and it'll probably usurp the dollar or become part of the dollar and like a dollar bill will represent as a token.
00:28:20.000But what do you guys think about like a United States decentralized crypto like Bitcoin but like just backed by the United States government?
00:28:28.000totally decentralized. What does that mean?
00:28:29.000They're like backed by the threat of being drone bombed?
00:28:32.000Yeah, exactly. Because I was like, what would I say to Congress? Like,
00:28:34.000how do we fix the economy? I'm just grasping at straws, but obviously...
00:28:38.000Our money used to be gold, but now it's the threat of being blown up.
00:28:42.000Literally. And it's all, you notice everything is drifting electronic, right?
00:28:47.000So California is kind of like a predictor of things to come in terms of the leftist agenda here.
00:29:07.000So maybe instead of it being backed by force, it would just be like, you can buy American goods with this cryptocurrency in addition to the US dollar.
00:29:26.000It stays at the exact value as the dollar.
00:29:28.000But I think it would take off and become more valuable than the dollar, just because it's digital.
00:29:32.000Then the power could always go out, and then you're back to basics, where that's why cash, you could never, I don't think you ever should get rid of cash, ever.
00:29:39.000I imagine they'll try and put those, what do they call those little barcodes on each dollar bill?
00:29:45.000QRs, or I'm talking about the little metal strips that they put in your credit card.
00:29:49.000They're printed from foil, but they can magnetically measure where you're at and all that, track you.
00:29:55.000Well, there's also a war on cash, and many places already have stopped accepting it, and many businesses as well, and they don't have the exact change for it.
00:30:04.000Well, I think, I don't know, I have to look into that, but there's a better idea.
00:30:07.000There's microchips that you could shove up, you know what, and then you have to be, you know, tracked, and it's inside of you, and they'll know that it's going to be your transaction, and you have to be probed every time you want to use, you know, the money, and then they know exactly it's coming from you to whatever else you're buying, and then they have a perfect record, and then they'll know exactly how many taxes you have to pay, they'll know exactly what you're buying, they'll share it with all the big corporations that will know your consumer activities, which will help them Sell you better products.
00:30:35.000But what's the libertarian solution? Because the US dollar is a real
00:30:39.000status thing. Like, you can go to Wyoming and buy groceries at a grocery store
00:30:44.000there with the US dollar because the American military
00:30:47.000is like, you better, or we are in control and everyone is using the US dollar here.
00:30:52.000There's a reason libertarians and the Ron Paulers have been screaming
00:30:56.000about the dangers of the US Federal Reserve for so many years.
00:31:00.000If you look at Ron Paul, even before the major financial problem, one of the things that he was making arguments against is the Federal Reserve printing money out of thin air.
00:31:11.000It has been a staple position of many Libertarians, of many anti-statists saying, hey, this creature from Jekyll Island is a Big problem.
00:31:19.000Because they could literally create inflation, they could create deflation, but they know what's going to happen, so they could game the market, so they are always the winners, and you will always be the loser.
00:31:28.000And this is what they've been doing for decades on decades on decades, and this is why the libertarians have been talking about this, because you get rid of that central bank, just like Thomas Jefferson did, that he gets put on the $20 bill, but you get rid of that, you allow people to have more freedom, and you're not controlled by the whims of banksters.
00:31:47.000Well, let's talk about this controlled opposition.
00:31:48.000I got this tweet here from Chairwell that says, Peter Thiel bashes Greta and the autistic children's crusade in his address at the Oxford Union, blaming environmentalism for some of the greatest crises of our time, Andy Wei reports.
00:32:02.000That's a bold statement from from Peter Thiel about Greta.
00:32:06.000It's interesting, though, because, you know, what's what's Peter Thiel's deal?
00:32:09.000I mean, isn't he like a Davos group or no, he's not he's not that stuff.
00:33:21.000Three minutes, and I was like, ooh, he's a good guy now.
00:33:24.000And I think we've seen that with Elon Musk, with, you know, Joe Rogan, like these guys, they're kind of getting more and more emboldened with Tim Pool.
00:33:32.000I think he said, we have about three years left to save America from a communist takeover.
00:33:43.000He has a very interesting career, especially what happened with BuzzFeed, especially him being ousted by them and then kind of getting retribution through Hogan.
00:33:51.000Him coming out and supporting Donald Trump, especially during the RNC, was pretty ballsy too, but he has a very interesting kind of career.
00:33:58.000He's also with Palantir with Alex Karp, who was at Davos today, specifically talking about how he is a progressive helping the intelligence agencies And working on AI technology that will help track down Russians in the battlefield, but also giving this technology to the U.S.
00:34:16.000intelligence agencies and how a lot of progressives should be happy that he's doing so because he's stopping a lot of right-wing terrorist attacks.
00:34:23.000But that's Alex Karp, another Bilderberg member, who's working with Peter Thiel on Palantir.
00:34:29.000I talked to Peter Thiel twice at Bilderberg already, and he is a Bilderberg steering committee member.
00:34:37.000I would love to have a bigger discussion with him.
00:34:40.000He's kind of a little mysterious figure, but I think definitely there deserves to be a bigger conversation to be had with him, because he's interesting.
00:34:50.000And, you know, look, we're doing the whole coffee shop thing, the cafe, skate shop, physical location stuff, and it's particularly inexpensive relative to Other businesses.
00:35:02.000Like, setting up a coffee shop is not as expensive as setting up, like, a media company.
00:35:07.000I bring this up because I wonder, with Peter Thiel being worth, what is he, like, two billion dollars, I'm genuinely curious.
00:35:13.000I'm not saying he's doing nothing, but I'm wondering if he really feels this way about how we got three years to save this country, what is he doing?
00:35:20.000And again, not saying he's doing nothing, I'm genuinely curious, like, what are his approaches and strategies with all of his resources to try and save this country, if he even is?
00:35:30.000I mean, you know, kind of Bilderberg, he was on the Facebook board, right?
00:35:35.000And you would think, oh, that's bad because Facebook is very censoring and they kicked the President of the United States off.
00:35:42.000But it's also kind of good because we want some representation on that board, too.
00:35:46.000So, you know, there is a kind of a flip side to it.
00:35:49.000All I can attest to, I'm not a Peter Thiel expert, but he did back those two Senate candidates.
00:35:54.000I think he was the second or third biggest GOP donor.
00:35:57.000He recognizes the time in this country where we're at, and I imagine he'll be a big supporter in 2024, but I don't know fully what his plan is.
00:36:56.000It was a gossip story that they tried to, of course, herd him over, which was, again, ridiculous.
00:37:01.000But sorry, a big thing that people need to discuss, because they have a big presence in the intelligence community, and the intelligence community, the FBI, the CIA, depends on them a lot.
00:37:11.000Yeah, I was advised, hey, Palantir, invest.
00:37:13.000I made like 10 times my money on the freaking thing in the beginning.
00:38:56.000Alex Karp, the CEO of Palantir, had a lot of interesting comments today at Davos.
00:39:01.000He was talking about how In-Q-Tel was one of the first kind of startups for a lot of these larger, bigger tech companies.
00:39:08.000He was talking about how the CIA, the FBI, the DOD were all involved, and now how a lot of these bigger tech companies are more aligned to the West.
00:39:15.000Because of that he was going off and talking about how they are creating algorithms at Palantir that are specifically used to quote target Russians on the battlefield and later he went on and said the US government has our software and uses it very aggressively.
00:39:30.000That's Alex Karp today, CEO of Palantir at Davos Today.
00:39:35.000Very eye-opening comments to say the least.
00:39:37.000I don't think anybody at the NSA is a good person.
00:39:50.000Anybody at the NSA is like sitting there saying, I know we're in violation of the law of the land of this country, in violation of our oaths to uphold the Constitution, but oh well.
00:40:18.000You ever see that family guy joke where there's a murderer in prison and he's holding a knife and he pokes himself and goes, whoa, is that what I'm doing to people?
00:41:00.000And his crime was that he said we deserve better.
00:41:04.000There's a guy sitting in his apartment and he's like looking at how awful everything is in the Soviet Union and he goes outside and he goes, I think we deserve better.
00:41:10.000And then, you know, the gulag guy says, go arrest him.
00:41:14.000And then some low-level dude, some low-level dude goes, he's a criminal.
00:41:21.000No, he's taking someone and putting them in what we call the gulag.
00:41:25.000Or the cultural revolution in China, where literally there was walks of shame against capitalists, against individuals who had private property, because those were the ones that were responsible for everyone's pain and suffering, and they literally humiliated them, tortured them in public squares with people cheering it on.
00:42:45.000These are the greatest civil rights Leaders of our time and they're the ones that spied on and told him to kill himself and then you know what they did?
00:42:51.000Herbert Hoover was the director of the FBI.
00:42:53.000They named the FBI building after him.
00:43:07.000They make people worship the cross when that's the thing they kill them with?
00:43:10.000But the Hoover thing is important here, because a lot of people are saying it was actually Hoover who was responsible for this, who had a lot of skeletons in his closet, and was allegedly also a crossdresser.
00:43:19.000But the FBI did so many sinister things, especially under COINTELPROBE.
00:43:22.000A lot of people don't even know this, but they had full-on disinformation Organizations and psyops running so people wouldn't organize together.
00:43:33.000And what they did to the MLK wasn't just spying on him, wasn't just writing letters saying, hey, kill yourself.
00:43:40.000They knew that he cheated on his wife, took that information, and when MLK was in jail, they went to his wife and said, here's the evidence.
00:43:48.000Here's the tapes of MLK talking to his mistress.
00:44:10.000And you got this clip where she's being carried away with a smile on her face and then I don't know if we, yeah we do have it here, people are saying it's staged because you can see her laughing and smiling with some guy as the cops are just standing there with her and then they eventually just walk away and she's not being carried.
00:44:30.000The cops were probably told, OK, get the protesters out of here.
00:44:33.000I think it was staged insofar as almost all nonviolent civil disobedience is staged, as in protesters will call the police and say, hey, we're going to go here, we're going to protest, just so you know.
00:44:40.000Then the cops say, OK, we're going to come arrest you and say, OK.
00:44:50.000At the Autonomous Zone in Luzerath, Germany, militant leftists and antifa and climate extremists surrounded and attacked journalists.
00:44:58.000These are Greta Thunberg's friends, huh?
00:45:00.000This is something I think people need to bring up because I'm not playing these games.
00:45:03.000We've talked about the banality of evil.
00:45:05.000If Greta Thunberg is going to be associating with these people, if she's going to be organizing protests and inviting these people, and if she will not call this out, then she is complicit and she supports it.
00:45:17.000I remember playing eco-terrorism in Civilization 2.
00:45:21.000It was my first exposure as a young man to eco-terrorism.
00:45:23.000And I was like, oh, these people are protecting...
00:45:52.000That's the flag of violent leftist violence.
00:45:56.000And I mean, hey, there are times and places that people have been destroying things to the point where you have to use violence to stop them from destroying it.
00:46:03.000But I don't think that the global ecosystem is in that state right now.
00:46:07.000I'm not going to make a moral judgment on the protests.
00:46:25.000Like they were all there of their own volition, didn't know each other, but some people were violent, some other people there being lumped in.
00:46:30.000There's one group protesting climate stuff.
00:46:35.000You know, what game I'm not going to play is that these leftists have long done this, where they quote-unquote respect a diversity of tactics, and then they will all feign ignorance and reject responsibility for what they organize, which is violent attacks on journalists.
00:48:15.000Okay, so I still didn't see the the attack because I see a lot of social media posts that come up being like man Attacks dude in thing and I'm like, what did he do?
00:48:23.000He got up in his face and yelled at him.
00:48:24.000That's not attack Well, if you saw they're like threw down the smartphone that they're using to record they hear they kicked him in this video Yeah, kind of mild harassment stuff, you know That's one thing I give Antifa a little credit for is that they don't go too overboard They just kind of pepper spray and beat you up a little bit.
00:48:39.000They don't actually shoot you or stab you and I You'll see the attack.
00:49:52.000Right now, I assure you, Media Matters is writing something up where they're like, Tim Pool lies and claims Greta Thunberg is violent or something.
00:50:15.000Say you're coming from a good place, you're just trying to cover what's going on here because the corporate media is very sympathetic to what's happening here.
00:50:20.000Al Gore is promoting Greta Thunberg today, right?
00:50:23.000So you're there covering what's going on, and you got some people coming up, you don't know who they are, you don't know if they have weapons, start kicking you, slapping your camera, throwing you down, saying, get out of here, assaulting you, slapping you, punching you.
00:50:32.000And whenever you put your hands on somebody, again, you shouldn't do that.
00:50:36.000I covered a lot of different protests, faced a lot of different insane situations.
00:50:40.000I got assaulted, I got jumped a couple times, I got beat up a couple times.
00:50:43.000But the best thing that I saw was in Hong Kong where of course people there were protesting against the Chinese government.
00:50:49.000The Chinese government was using fake press as a way to get photos and videos of protesters and then arrest them and ship them away forever.
00:51:00.000But they figured out ways to kind of do their thing to of course have their face covered but also use umbrellas in a way that prevented any kind of conflict or escalations when they were changing into black blocks since they were using black block tactics.
00:51:14.000They used it in a way to not force or hurt anyone but obfuscate their identity because there was a real threat for the Chinese government coming in and disappearing people.
00:51:23.000And they did it in a way that we didn't need any of this nonsense, any of this kind of threat or assault of journalists, which we should always try to avoid and speak out against.
00:51:32.000Let's not lose sight of the irony of a flag standing for anti-fascism beating up journalists for covering their... Well, I love that there's a meme where it's like a leftist yelling, just because the Nazis called themselves socialists doesn't mean they're socialists, and then holding the anti-fascist flag and be like, of course we're anti-fascists.
00:51:59.000Well, the Chinese state was coming in and not keeping their promise that they had with the UK government that they were going to transition Hong Kong to China in a very slow way.
00:52:07.000The Chinese government Did it in a very fast way and was, of course, also destroying a lot of key institutions in Hong Kong and a lot of the larger apparatuses and institutions that provided a lot of people liberty.
00:52:20.000People protested and then there was a violent crackdown on the protests and it was just insane covering that situation because it was truly so much different than covering a lot of the Western protests that I've seen in Greece or in Paris or even inside of the United States where a lot of the things were were totally opposite each other.
00:52:39.000I heard that they were putting crazy chemicals in, like, fire hoses with, like, blue ink and pepper, and they would spray it and stick it on your skin.
00:52:46.000Yeah, sticks on your skin for a while.
00:52:48.000And it makes you blue, so they know who's who.
00:52:49.000I got hit with it a little bit, and I felt that stink for a very long time.
00:52:55.000I just got hit with it a little bit, just covering the protest there.
00:52:57.000I was there for some of the most violent, most insane interactions, where there was, you know, just people getting seriously hurt and dying on the streets.
00:53:06.000These American and European Antifa are spoiled little brats.
00:53:13.000It was an experience when I was in Brazil, because Luke and I have both been pepper sprayed and tear gassed ad nauseum, literally, throughout the United States.
00:53:21.000And it's like, you get gassed, it sucks, you cough, whatever, you get pepper spray, when you're taking a shower later it burns.
00:53:27.000When I was in Brazil, I was like, oh, they're tear gassing everybody.
00:53:30.000And then as soon as the gas hit me, like my nose and eyes just like mucus tears.
00:55:41.000But we got breaking news that I don't even know how to address.
00:55:44.000The Daily Wire has uploaded a video, our offer to Stephen Crowder, I guess officially confirming that Daily Wire is who Steven Crowder was talking about.
00:56:25.000Our friend Steven Crowder has launched a new initiative called Stop Big Con.
00:56:29.000And in the video announcing the launch of the project, he talked about leaving the blaze and all the different offers that he fielded from other conservative organizations and what he thought were the real problems with those offers.
00:56:41.000And that's led a lot of people to speculate about whether or not the Daily Wire is one of the people who made him an offer.
00:56:46.000In particular, are we the ones who made the offer that he put up on the screen and talked about?
00:57:00.000In fact, I think it's a very good offer.
00:57:02.000But I think there's a lot of sort of misconceptions about the nature of the offer, the nature of the points.
00:57:08.000I think Stephen misunderstood a lot of the points.
00:57:10.000And so, the way we do here at The Daily Wire, we're just going to be incredibly transparent, you know, that we We like to have our members be a part of the journey.
00:57:17.000We live stream all of our company town halls, for example.
00:57:21.000We just find that sunlight sometimes is the best disinfectant.
00:57:24.000And so, with that in mind, I'm going to talk to you a little bit about how we came to be in conversations with Stephen, how those conversations ended, and walk you just line by line through what the actual document that we sent over.
00:57:37.000We'll only watch a little bit, but I'll jump right to where we can see he's begun addressing the contract, and we'll look at a few of his points.
00:57:42.000You know, in order to properly address this breaking story, we'd have to have watched the hour-long video in advance, like with Crowder's video.
00:57:49.000We don't have that luxury because we're live now and it's happening, but let's play a little bit and see what he says.
00:57:53.000And so we anticipated that and we said, Crowder will bear the burden of production, including all costs associated therewith, on all the content contemplated herein, except on the quarterly and annual content contemplated below.
00:58:06.000We'll get to that part a little bit later.
00:59:16.000Bear the cost of He said theft, not taxes.
00:59:21.000It's not because if Crowder's production costs are $600,000 a month, then he's only profiting $400,000 and then he's paying $150,000 in taxes.
01:00:01.000We've talked about potential things we could work on and deals we could do and, you know, a lot of people were speculating back when we went and visited the Daily Wire in Nashville.
01:00:43.000And so we have third parties that work with us.
01:00:46.000So I've talked to them like, hey, can you guys help us with this?
01:00:48.000Because we know we're not doing a good job.
01:00:49.000That's the kind of stuff we've talked about.
01:00:51.000And being able to go to a company like The Daily Wire and literally talk with their CEO and have him just be very candid and like the, I gotta tell you, like of all the business meetings I've had, the easiest one was with The Daily Wire, because it ultimately ended like, okay, well, you know, maybe we can't work on this now, but we'll figure something out.
01:02:04.000That being said, These contracts don't work.
01:02:07.000It says like right here, you can see right here, Crowder will deliver a 1.5 hour long Loud Earth Crowder audio show of equality and the kind of blah blah blah blah.
01:02:17.000Because they don't want to sign a deal with you and then have you drop the quality to save money, but then all of a sudden if you're someone like Crowder and you're like, you wanna own what?
01:04:49.000But Steven Crowder motivates people more.
01:04:52.000I'd be willing to bet that a Crowder Adreed will sell 10 times more than a Rogan Adreed.
01:04:59.000No offense to Rogan, but Crowder's a culture warrior.
01:05:06.000When he goes out and he says, guys, you gotta get this thing because these are the companies that believe in us, people are going to be like, yes.
01:05:13.000When Joe Rogan says, I shave my balls, here's the thing I use, some people are going to be like, that's cool.
01:05:26.000So they're anticipating, yes, it's worth at least $50 million and then probably at least 50% on top of that.
01:05:32.000You know, and that's where, you know, ballparking, like, I agree with you.
01:05:36.000I think what, you know, being independent in this space is the best way to do it.
01:05:41.000I think it's the best environment for a true creative.
01:05:43.000I think it's the best upside on the profitability.
01:05:45.000And there's so many business opportunities being created in this sector, which is relatively new, really has just blossomed in the last two to three years.
01:05:55.000So, you know, Crowder might be looking at, okay, what am I, Looking at the next two or three years, he's going to be doing this for 30, 40 years, potentially, if he wants to.
01:06:03.000Here's the thing about any of these deals.
01:06:05.000A couple years ago, we had one of the big networks come to us and say, let's do a deal.
01:06:10.000We were relatively smaller, but we haven't grown that much.
01:06:14.000We've grown a lot, but in terms of revenue and stuff, as a company, we're doing a lot better.
01:06:20.000But they basically all say, we'll own it.
01:07:40.000If he fails for any reason to deliver 192 episodes of the daily show, or if he fails to include the ads that we agreed to or the promotions that we agreed to in those episodes, then we'll give a $100,000 reduction every time.
01:07:57.000Well, again, you can't pay someone any amount of money, but you certainly can't pay them An unimaginably huge amount of money for their show, and then not get the show.
01:08:09.000So what this is saying is, you don't have to produce a show every day.
01:08:11.000You don't have to produce 260, or 250, or 240, or 230, or 220, or 210 episodes a year.
01:08:18.000You've got to produce 192 episodes a year.
01:09:04.000If you're doing a guarantee of X per year, I understand what the Daily Wire is trying to do, but I will push back and say, What the contract should say, and they could be doing the big ask, it could be a Trump move, where they don't want Crowder to negotiate a net benefit they want to break even.
01:09:21.000So they say $100k expecting Crowder to come back and say, no, no, no, no, pro-rate divided by the fee for the year.
01:09:27.000So it should say, in my opinion, this is how I do the count, I'd say, what are we paying you $12,500 a year?
01:10:45.000That being said, the Daily Wire offering a steep fee as a means to say, like, don't drop shows, I also understand.
01:10:54.000They don't want to do a deal where they make a guarantee and then one day Crowder says, well, you know, I don't lose anything if I back out on this deal, right?
01:11:02.000If Ian and I do a deal and then Ian's relying on me to make a profit, and there's no penalty other than I don't get paid for the
01:11:11.000day but Ian gets screwed over, well that's going to suck. So again, I think it may be
01:11:16.000reasonable to say something like $70,000, so you will get a $5,000 hit on your overall minimum
01:11:23.000because we don't want to create an opportunity for you to just be like, I guess I'm not going
01:11:27.000to do a show today because I don't feel You know what I mean?
01:11:30.000You know what I think they're factoring into that is their costs for their production and their licensing and distribution.
01:11:35.000So $100,000, so $65,000 is for Crowder, $35,000 is probably what they estimate their cost per episode.
01:11:43.000In order to distribute and make money off of what they're buying from Crowder, they're gonna have their own crew doing all of this stuff as well.
01:13:44.000If Crowder is boycotted or dropped by more than 50% of his then-extant advertising partners, that is, if 50% of the money that he's making from advertisers is suddenly gone, And we're not able to replace that revenue within 90 days.
01:14:00.000Then his fee will be reduced by 25% until such time as the ad revenue has been restored for a period of time.
01:15:03.000What I don't like from Steve's perspective is it makes him rely on advertisers still, which is, I think he's trying to get away from that, being reliant on advertisers and if his contract forces him.
01:15:14.000If I was going to do a deal with someone, I would say, if your content gets boycotted, your fee will be reduced commensurate to the amount of money lost from those boycotts.
01:16:16.000If the content simply cannot appear, and therefore cannot not only be used for marketing, cannot be used to grow the brand, also can't be monetized, well, we can't pay him the same as if it was.
01:16:24.000If you're making 25% of your money on YouTube, and now YouTube is permanently gone, you can't make that money anymore.
01:16:40.000I deserve to be paid millions and millions and millions of dollars Whether my show drives the revenue or not.
01:16:48.000I gotta pause right there and say, Jeremy, yeah, that's the point.
01:16:52.000The reason Steven Crowder wants to do a deal with you is so that you assume the risk and he doesn't.
01:16:58.000And this is why I'm saying these contracts don't make sense.
01:17:02.000Because what Jeremy is saying makes sense from Jeremy's perspective, but it doesn't make sense from the perspective of anybody who wants to do a deal.
01:17:08.000It would be like, It would be like someone saying, you know, Luke, I'm going to buy your RV off you.
01:17:15.000And then if it breaks, I'm not giving you the money.
01:19:26.000To me, this doesn't strike me as them partnering up with Big Tech to take down Crowder.
01:19:32.000Yeah, he was kind of alluding to that.
01:19:34.000We definitely need more clarification for it, because, let's be honest here, The Daily Wire and Ben Shapiro do get suggested a lot on Facebook.
01:19:43.000If you look at the most shared links from Facebook, it's usually The Daily Wire.
01:19:48.000And a lot of people are asking, that's kind of weird, you know?
01:19:51.000That's kind of, you know, what's going on here?
01:19:53.000And then we have these statements by Crowder, so, you know, there's obviously a lot more questions here.
01:19:58.000Zuckerberg's a huge conservative, turns out.
01:20:02.000I have far more questions than answers.
01:20:03.000This stuff, working in Hollywood contracts, there's no market standard, especially in this burgeoning industry.
01:20:13.000So it's really fascinating to see a little bit of the inside information, because now you can say, all right, I'm this X percent compared to Crowder.
01:20:20.000It gives you a chance to... But people are making this up as we go.
01:20:24.000What is a market standard for a contract?
01:22:29.000The problem is What Is A Woman is political.
01:22:31.000That means The Daily Wire is still trapped in their pigeonhole.
01:22:34.000And if they're going to have the cultural impact that we actually need them to have, they need to get bigger hits in different areas that are very, very difficult to do.
01:23:19.000I don't know that we can guarantee Crowder will bring in 300,000.
01:23:23.000I think it's possible, but more than that, I think from a contract perspective, if someone came to me and said, look, If Ian came to me and said, bring me on the show and I guarantee you 10,000 new paying monthly members, I'd be like, you can't guarantee me that.
01:23:37.000I can look at your metrics and then make a bet.
01:23:40.000And if I'm wrong, I lose a lot of money.
01:23:43.000Yeah, there'd have to be some cash incentive if I was gonna guarantee a subscriber count or something.
01:23:48.000But I also do think, from a practical standpoint, Steven Crowder likely will bring in 300,000 to 500,000 new paying monthly members at 10 bucks a month, in which case, Yeah, this contract's not good.
01:23:59.000You made an interesting observation that he might be concerned that with the 20% if he gets banned off YouTube, 20% if he gets banned, that if Daily Wire is in charge of the edit and the post, that they could put something up that would put him in a light that would get him banned and then be able to cut his salary by 20%.
01:24:13.000He's very nervous about their affiliation with Big Tech.
01:24:17.000And that, to me, has not been addressed in this.
01:24:21.000We saw the provision, but to me it doesn't really... Where's Crowder getting... He was very upset, very nervous about that.
01:24:40.000Based on how big Crowder is, based on what he was able to do with Rumble with the midterms, he had like seven or eight times the amount of viewers we had.
01:24:53.000I think we ended up with, I don't remember how many, 60, 70,000.
01:26:28.000If I know this to be true, That if we did some kind of partnership with The Daily Wire, this show would be 10 times bigger in half the time.
01:26:40.000We would have... The Daily Wire's, I think, 20 times bigger than we are.
01:26:55.000If I did do a deal with them in any capacity, and they were able to be like, here, we're gonna change your show, It would just like, bigger studio, built by a more professional company, faster.
01:27:06.000Oh my god, the swinging cameras that come through on dollies and stuff?
01:27:10.000We're a company here at Timcast, and we are every day trying to learn and navigate and forge this path forward.
01:27:17.000Meaning like, oh man, we have hiccups all day, every day.
01:27:20.000And it's just like, constant headaches.
01:27:22.000And I talk to Jeremy periodically, and then he's like, well, my friend, just know that it always gets worse.
01:28:00.000But, you know, look, we're our own company, we do our own thing, and it's impossible to just, you can't just make something like that happen.
01:29:16.000At this stage, I'm working for the Timcast Corporation, and it's a little emasculating at times.
01:29:22.000I'm like, damn, I can't just I can't just publish a new show.
01:29:26.000It's owned by TimCast Corporation, which is reasonable, I think, because I'm getting paid by TimCast Corporation, and I can always end the contract.
01:29:32.000I think there's a time and place, because the social capital that I'm gaining outweighs the value of anything I could do on my own at this stage of my career.
01:31:16.000But there's something in the back of my artist mind where it's just knowing that I have a contract signed that is Owns my work and until I override it is there.
01:31:26.000It's like it's messes with me, but I have to weigh the value like the value of to be honest.
01:31:36.000I don't care about the social capital far outweighs the dollars in my opinion.
01:31:41.000So, I'm constantly doing the weight of, like, is it worth it?
01:31:44.000Everyone's got to make their own decision, you know?
01:31:46.000What's best for your life and what you want to do.
01:31:49.000I remember thinking when I was younger, I was like, oh, you know, I'm going to start a business and I'm going to scale it up and then it's going to be a multi-whatever.
01:31:55.000I don't even want to do that, you know?
01:32:18.000I don't want to compete with Steve Crowder.
01:32:20.000I want to work unified and create art together.
01:32:24.000We don't have any kind of contract anywhere near the level of what the Daily Wire is offering, like that massive lighting out terms or whatever.
01:32:45.000But also, it's like there's no time commitment, which is ultimate.
01:32:50.000In this rapidly changing entertainment structured environment, putting someone on a three-year freaking leash is insane, in my opinion.
01:32:57.000Well, there's a reason for that, and it's what we were talking about the other day, right?
01:33:00.000So, we have no no-term contracts with anybody who works here, and that's a huge risk on our end, because I joke to everybody, I'm a communist, so it's like...
01:33:09.000If we invest in you as a personality and then you quit on us, we've just lost all of our investment.
01:33:17.000And that's why nobody wants to do that deal.
01:33:52.000So all these big companies, they're like, look, if I'm going to invest $10 million in you, I need to know that I can monetize that for four years or whatever, make money off it.
01:34:00.000My attitude is, hey, look, I'm going to invest a couple hundred grand into you and the stuff you're building.
01:34:05.000And if at any point you don't want to be here, it's probably better you just leave because I don't want to waste any more money.
01:34:09.000Like, if you don't want to be here, what?
01:34:12.000So, like, what am I supposed to do with that?
01:34:15.000I think it's a better structure overall.
01:34:17.000Like, again, Hollywood, it's cold and dehumanized because it's just a massive mega publicly traded corporation dealing with a bunch of creative idiots.
01:34:26.000Very successful people sometimes, but I mean, yeah, when you have a more, like, a family-owned business, you don't need this super restrictive contract.
01:34:35.000You have leadership, you have friendship, you have, you know, you can do things on a handshake.
01:34:40.000A contract is just in case the worst happens.
01:34:43.000You should be able to just work things out.
01:34:46.000Someone chatted, Tim wants volunteers, not hostages.
01:35:11.000I mean, obviously, as you get bigger, you're going to lose that more personalized connection with your employees.
01:35:18.000So, again, there's no one right way to do this in any way, shape, or form.
01:35:23.000Any of these powerful voices, you guys, anyone else, it's do what you think feels right.
01:35:29.000And I think what it ultimately comes down to, what we're all doing this for, is to help save this country and save this planet from tyranny.
01:35:36.000And this stuff is all kind of on the side.
01:36:54.000And thank you guys for being members at TimCast.com because it's basically afforded me the ability to take the mornings off.
01:36:59.000Which is extremely, like, I get really angry.
01:37:01.000Because, like, I come in here, I do all the work, and then I start doing warm-ups, exercises, I took ibuprofen, because it reduces swelling to help you talk, and I recorded again for four minutes and I was complaining about Greta Thunberg, and then I just was, like, pushing harder and harder to get, and I'm done.
01:37:27.000What if I don't follow their rules my entire career?
01:37:30.000But my concern is, if we didn't have the website memberships, it'd be more like, if I don't do this work today, how do I pay the salaries of the people who are working here?
01:38:20.000It's almost like antitrust in a way, because it's like Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Chase Bank, all these banks own this thing together, and they all transfer money on this thing.
01:41:10.000This says, You guys are missing things Crowder said.
01:41:13.000It's the fact these conditions force people to abide by big tech's biased rules they often enforce arbitrarily that don't encourage one to actually speak the truth but the opposite.
01:41:24.000And that I agree in that I think that you're referring to that if he gets banned off YouTube, then he loses money from his contract.
01:41:31.000So they're kind of forcing him to abide by YouTube's rules to get his daily wire contract.
01:41:35.000Which would happen if he was independent anyway.
01:41:38.000You know, if he was independent, he lost YouTube money.
01:41:40.000So they're kind of saying, well, you know, we're not YouTube insurance.
01:41:43.000And they might be YouTube insurance to an extent, depending on how much revenue comes in from YouTube, and they only dock them 20%.
01:41:49.000I mean, there is probably some give and take there.
01:41:52.000But again, we still need to No more information.
01:41:56.000I got another one that Tim's highlighted for me from Linda T. saying, Tim, I'm a stay-at-home mom of two kids.
01:42:02.000Limited money, but a member because I like that you are fighting the culture war and I stand behind you, as do I. Thank you.
01:43:09.000No, I was gonna say, it's a network for people who aren't outright anarchists, but lean more in that direction than conservatives or liberals do, you know what I mean?
01:43:18.000So like, you'll get your libertarians, you'll get your Dave Smiths, but you'll get some conservatives who are like pro-2A.
01:43:23.000We got another $5 super chat by Vegas96.
01:43:26.000He says, DC Drano probably had the best Twitter account.
01:44:01.000Like I said, I'm represented by Harmeet Dhillon, who I think is the best civil rights attorney in modern history. And, you know, any day I could wake up and
01:44:31.000So I think we've just hit the tip of the iceberg and I have a lot of friends in Congress and there's gonna be a lot of subpoenas going out where I think the Twitter files are just the tip of the iceberg.
01:44:42.000Matthew has a $20 super chat saying, since we are discussing Ian's contract, how much of its compensation is graphene and psychedelic mushrooms?
01:45:49.000And that was one reason that I just decided to quit.
01:45:52.000Two, it's just, I don't know, it just feels better just to be able to breathe and not be dependent on something that I was convinced that I needed when I really didn't.
01:46:30.000That's the news that was breaking during this podcast, and she was an awful leader that implemented a lot of the World Economic Forum policies and essentially destroyed any form of freedom and liberty in New Zealand.
01:46:43.000And she was facing a lot of people opposing her, and her popularity went down because of just how absolutely horrible she was to her people.
01:46:52.000So good, good riddance, in my opinion.
01:47:08.000He was on a live stream and he had a seizure and I think there was like 10 people watching and a bunch of people were DMing me like Dude, Ian, he just dropped.
01:51:33.000In homeschooling, and the Second Amendment, and people's liberties and freedoms, and humanity figuring out problems.
01:51:41.000Yeah, Luke has been very pushy, in a great way, as a friend, about me working it out, and it's keeping it in the forefront of my mind, so thank you, Luke.
01:53:17.000I'm not the best at business, but I'm just not bad.
01:53:21.000And so I go, and where does that money go?
01:53:24.000And then they'll say something like, oh, Well, there's stipulations.
01:53:29.000It's not a marketing budget, you know, for like any kind of marketing.
01:53:34.000What these companies will do is they'll find ways to like create value marketing, you know, that's not, you know, like, it's the true value of something is vague.
01:53:45.000So they can be like, we'll give you a half a million dollars worth of X.
01:53:48.000And then they'll just say like, oh, Ian, this water bottle's worth $100.
01:53:51.000So like a targeted ad read, they'll be like, oh, it's worth $35 for 1,000 views.
01:57:18.000Everything else I do, I post it out there, so people know.
01:57:20.000We also have an after show as well, guys, so if you want to see the after show, we don't have to be censored and be on the YouTube, under YouTube's whip, you can see us talk about more cool stuff.
01:57:30.000We have another one, too, from Kevin Brady.
01:57:33.000Crowder has missed a ton of time in the past from his show.
01:57:37.000I don't think it's out of touch to say that they factored the penalty in to incentivize doing the show consistently.
01:57:50.000But I guess, here's the problem with these contracts.
01:57:53.000You can't expect the Daily Wire to pay for a show that can't be produced, but the Daily Wire shouldn't expect to buy a show if they can't assume those risks.
01:58:04.000Like, if I hire someone to work for Timcast and they get sick, and they're like, I can't work, it's like, okay, well, I don't stop paying them.
01:58:11.000It's happened to me, I was sick a bunch, like a month or so ago.
01:58:15.000You know, we here at TimCast have unlimited sick time and unlimited vacation time because we're one of those hippie communist companies everyone makes fun of where the woman walks in like, here's my winded panther.
01:58:25.000We got an espresso machine downstairs.
01:58:27.000Did you see Sam Hyde's video making fun of that yesterday?
01:58:44.000It is abhorrent that they're trying to take control retroactively of people's content that they had already signed under Open Gaming License 1.0, saying that they had the right to own it.
01:58:54.000So what Wizards is doing, owner of Dungeons & Dragons, is saying, we're going to change our Open Game License that said anyone can use D&D rulesets, create their own versions, sell it, monetize it, create companies.
01:59:03.000We're going to change that retroactively and now say you owe us a percentage of your work.
01:59:32.000A vote every, what, six months on, like, updates?
01:59:35.000Well, what you could do is make it, like, free license codes so that anyone could use it and make changes, but all the changes are also free, so that anything that ever iteration of it gets used will also be available for a community.
01:59:47.000And then one might be, like, one version might become really popular for everyone to play, but there could be side versions.
01:59:52.000Yeah, we should do something like that.
02:00:55.000And then we could maybe even like sell them as like, I don't know, I don't be able to do is not a profit, but I would I would be interested in selling the cards, not to make a profit just to produce.
02:01:04.000Someone's got to pay for the printing.
02:01:06.000But like, and there's gotta be some kind of standard to it, but secondary market would cover costs on a lot of things.
02:01:14.000If you guys have ideas, tweet them or message me at Mines.
02:01:17.000I know that we could, I started working on a rules base with like, instead of strength, intelligence, and dexterity, I've got like, aim, speed, you know, I have different skill stats, and those things could be open sourced if I could build out like, you roll a D10, if you have five speed, then you get five D10 when you roll.
02:01:33.000It's kind of White Wolf style, I think.
02:02:08.000Alright everybody, if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share this show with your friends.
02:02:12.000Become a member at TimCast.com because you're supporting our work, you're helping me get sick time even though I'm still working every day.
02:02:19.000I took the mornings off to try and rest my voice and it's only possible because you guys are members.
02:02:25.000And the coffee shop stuff we're doing, the game ideas, everything we're trying to do, everything I believe in and everybody here is impacting culture.
02:02:34.000And so a lot of you may have heard us, you know, Ian and I talking about tabletop games and other nonsense.
02:02:38.000Look, Magic the Gathering is one of the most popular card games.
02:03:12.000Wizards of the Coast got... Well, D&D got bought by Wizards of the Coast, then got bought by Hasbro, so it's like this corporate conglomeration is... Blackrock owns Hasbro, so now we've got these weird... We want to make... I want it to be decentralized.
02:03:24.000Of course there are skateboard companies, and you can buy their boards, but you can also make your own board, and you can skate.
02:03:29.000I want to make a game that can have a huge impact on culture.
02:03:32.000You go to card shops, and you're playing the game, But there is no centralized owner of the game.
02:03:37.000There's a game format, the rules, the elements of it are open source and available to everybody, and then the popular versions exist, and you know, they can, maybe it's like someone makes their own card set, and you can choose to accept it or canon or whatever.
02:03:53.000But anyway, this is what we're doing, and if you believe in that, you wanna help us do things like impacting culture, making music, You know, impacting the skate community, building coffee shops, being a member helps.
02:04:04.000You can also smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, and you can follow us at Timcast IRL.
02:05:23.000I have a feeling it won't be the last time, but it's been awesome to finally meet you guys. I
02:05:28.000have a lot of respect and admiration for what you're doing because,
02:05:32.000like I was saying before, I speak to the MAGA base.
02:05:36.000I try to be a voice of the MAGA people, but the audience that you guys are reaching is the most important because it grows this movement for freedom.
02:05:46.000It's a big tent party and I'm not touching, I'm not reaching people in the card games and the video games and the skate shops.
02:05:54.000So it's a team effort to help save this country and I'm just damn proud of what y'all are doing.
02:06:04.000And if a young person goes to a comic book shop today.
02:06:07.000When I was a kid, I'm 12, I go to a comic shop.
02:06:09.000When I was 12, we were all rollerblading.
02:06:12.000And I would rollerblade to the comic book shop.
02:06:14.000I turned 13, I'm skateboarding all of a sudden.
02:06:16.000At the comic shop, I'm watching Dragon Ball Z. I'm watching, you know, Justice League.
02:06:21.000And those were the things that inspired me when I was a little kid.
02:06:24.000Naruto and Goku and a lot of these anime, mangas and animes, whatever you call it, the character is always about someone underestimated who has to work really, really hard.
02:06:44.000I stopped watching it, but I really like it.
02:06:46.000It's this world where everybody eventually gets a grimoire like not everybody but some people have magic and like a book will appear and like whoa and then the book has magic spells they can cast.
02:06:56.000This one kid desperately wants to be you know like a mage working for the king but he has no magic powers so instead he works out until he becomes this extremely physically powerful dude and then he's actually able to compete on a level with people who have magic And then eventually he does get like negative magic or whatever, but he's just got a sword.
02:07:15.000And so what I really love about a show like that is that he's up against all these people who are either naturally talented or were gifted things or are prodigies.
02:07:24.000And then he's always had to work as hard as possible, but he ends up winning.
02:07:27.000That's the kind of message kids need to hear.
02:07:30.000This dude, like they show him like just doing pushups nonstop and they're like making fun of him, like, ha ha, he has no magic.
02:07:34.000And then he like jumps so hard he shatters the ground.
02:07:38.000And it's like, No one's going to give you magic.
