Transcript

00:00:00.000 I'm sure many of you are aware about what's happening in Hawaii, in Maui specifically,
00:00:28.000 An entire city was razed by a wildfire.
00:00:31.000 So we're going to go over some of the basic details on that, give you guys an update.
00:00:34.000 I think it's really important news.
00:00:36.000 And we're looking at all these stories.
00:00:37.000 Typically we talk about politics and culture, but this one I think is very important.
00:00:41.000 A lot of people are mentioning that they have friends and family in the area or that they're being impacted in some way.
00:00:45.000 So we'll go over some of those updates.
00:00:47.000 Now we do have some news pertaining to international conflict at a, I think it was a national security presentation in Russia.
00:00:53.000 They're warning.
00:00:55.000 That NATO is preparing an occupation of Ukraine.
00:00:57.000 This is the perspective from Russians.
00:00:59.000 And that's not to say it's true, but that they are preparing for this as well under the belief that NATO is about to escalate into a full-scale war from a proxy war.
00:01:08.000 Thus, I don't know, I guess World War III.
00:01:11.000 So we'll talk about that.
00:01:12.000 We got a bunch of other stories.
00:01:13.000 Joe Biden's asking for money.
00:01:14.000 We've got the proposed trial date for Donald Trump, which is going to be in January, which would absolutely obstruct the election.
00:01:21.000 We'll get into all of that.
00:01:22.000 Before we do, my friends, head over to castbrew.com.
00:01:24.000 This show is brought to you by Casbro Coffee.
00:01:27.000 We sponsor ourselves.
00:01:28.000 Join the Casbro Coffee Club.
00:01:30.000 You get either ground or whole bean for $40 a month.
00:01:32.000 Three different bags of our coffee.
00:01:34.000 And we also have whole bean, ground, of all of our different varieties.
00:01:37.000 We got K-Cups now available.
00:01:38.000 So I recommend you guys pick up your K-Cups, get them in all your corporate offices or
00:01:42.000 whatever if you can, and drink the coffee.
00:01:45.000 And I will just mention briefly, Rise with Roberto Jr.
00:01:48.000 The current art will be the last run.
00:01:52.000 And after, uh, we have a few thousand of the bags left.
00:01:55.000 Uh, just the bags, not the coffee.
00:01:56.000 We, we fill the bags, uh, when the coffee is roasted fresh.
00:01:59.000 But once we run out of this particular art, the new bags will be the memorial for Roberto Jr., who passed away unexpectedly a few days ago.
00:02:06.000 Sad story, everybody, but, uh, we, we recommend you pick up your Rise with Roberto Jr.
00:02:09.000 now while you can still get the original bag, which is the bag from when Roberto Jr.
00:02:14.000 was here and the mascot of the company.
00:02:16.000 So, sad news, but we're going to be choosing an heir.
00:02:20.000 Roberto Jr.
00:02:21.000 has, I believe, three sons.
00:02:22.000 He may have more, because they're all very small right now, and we may have more children, and we'll have to figure out who's going to be the heir, Roberto III.

00:02:59.000 Thanks for having me.
00:03:00.000 Yeah, you want to introduce yourself?
00:03:02.000 Tell everybody who you are?
00:03:03.000 Yeah, so I am Olly London, the author of Gender Madness.
00:03:06.000 A lot of people might know me from my tweets.
00:03:08.000 I'm always posting about the gender ideology that's affecting society right now and, you know, I think it's very important to be calling that out.
00:03:15.000 Right on.
00:03:15.000 Well, thanks for joining us.
00:03:17.000 Thanks for having me.
00:03:17.000 And yeah, I'm just in the US now.
00:03:19.000 I've got my new book coming out, Gender Madness, which is talking about my own identity battle and also the identity battle that thousands of teens are experiencing right now from social media, indoctrinating them to school systems and entertainment industry as well.
00:03:32.000 And we'll get into that later on in the show, but I think the simple version is you were well known for identifying as a Korean woman, was it?
00:03:41.000 Yes.
00:03:41.000 So I had a crazy identity story and I overcame it last year and realized, you know, just need to find happiness from within.
00:03:48.000 Right on.
00:03:48.000 Well, thanks for joining us.
00:03:49.000 We got hands clearing out.
00:03:50.000 Hi, I'm Hannah-Claire Brimlow.

00:03:53.000 I'm so happy to be here.
00:03:54.000 And Ian's here, too.

00:03:56.000 Ian Crossland.
00:03:57.000 Happy to be here.
00:03:58.000 Good to see you, Ollie.
00:03:59.000 Cool book, man.
00:03:59.000 Cool cover.
00:04:00.000 I like the idea of putting your face really big on the cover.
00:04:02.000 Thanks.
00:04:02.000 A lot of Photoshop there, as you can tell.
00:04:03.000 Beautiful.
00:04:04.000 Nice work.
00:04:05.000 That's the way you do work.
00:04:07.000 Exactly.
00:04:07.000 Exactly.
00:04:08.000 Hey, Serge, what's happening, brother?
00:04:10.000 Pleasure to see you, Ollie.
00:04:11.000 It's been a while now.
00:04:13.000 And yeah, excited for this episode.
00:04:14.000 I'm Serge.com.
00:04:15.000 Let's get started, Tim.
00:04:16.000 Let's jump into this first story.
00:04:17.000 It's really big news.
00:04:18.000 Many of you probably saw the news about what's going on in Maui.
00:04:21.000 A major wildfire razing the entire town of... Do you guys know how to pronounce it properly?
00:04:25.000 I want to make sure.
00:04:26.000 Is it La Haina?
00:04:28.000 La Haina?
00:04:28.000 La Haina?
00:04:29.000 Okay, I just want to make sure I'm pronouncing it correctly.
00:04:31.000 It's sad stuff, and I think the images are...
00:04:35.000 They're shocking.
00:04:36.000 The latest news we have from the Washington Post, the death toll has risen to 53.
00:04:41.000 So, I want to show some of these images and just give you the general update.
00:04:44.000 We don't know exactly what started the fire just yet, but this is absolutely a massive fire.
00:04:51.000 I saw these photos, and I was thinking to myself, you know, like, how did every single car on the highway get engulfed in these flames?
00:04:58.000 And the whole city, you look at these photos, very few structures remain.
00:05:02.000 There are a few that survived, but some houses totally just wiped out, completely erased.
00:05:06.000 And, uh, this photo is absolutely horrifying.
00:05:10.000 So yeah, I don't know.
00:05:11.000 I really don't know how we add to this or talk about it, but I thought it was particularly important to bring up considering this is the major breaking news.
00:05:19.000 Many people are being affected.
00:05:20.000 Serge, I think you said that the whole city was wiped out?
00:05:23.000 Or was that hyperbole?
00:05:25.000 Did you say that earlier?
00:05:26.000 Bro, look at these photos.
00:05:27.000 Yeah, this is like... If you look right there, like, that's all of Lahaina.
00:05:30.000 Like, that's the whole thing.
00:05:32.000 So Maui's the island, Lahaina's the city that got taken out?
00:05:35.000 Yeah, I'm sure, like, the other side of the highway, at least what it looks like, it seemed like it was kind of protected, but, like, all the historic stuff and etc.
00:05:42.000 Well, that's pretty interesting, I guess.
00:05:44.000 Yeah, there's a few structures that are, like, this building was, I think it's like a hotel or something?
00:05:49.000 Yeah.
00:05:49.000 And then you've got this structure next to it.
00:05:51.000 They're totally fine.
00:05:52.000 And you can see, like, there are some houses, you know, That seemed to be standing and mostly all just completely wiped out.
00:05:59.000 But I wonder how much smoke damage and everything has done to these places.
00:06:02.000 I mean, sometimes it's fire.
00:06:04.000 It's not that the building gets leveled.
00:06:05.000 It's that there's so much damage from what's burned in the air that you really can't recover the building.
00:06:11.000 Yeah.
00:06:12.000 I mean, these photos are absolutely crazy.
00:06:14.000 A boat!
00:06:14.000 What?
00:06:15.000 A boat caught fire!
00:06:16.000 So, like, the heat from the land was so great.
00:06:18.000 It was catching things in short distances away.
00:06:21.000 Or, like, wind was, like, throwing something onto the boats that were in the harbor kind of thing.
00:06:24.000 I was hearing stories about people who were on the road and they didn't know where to go.
00:06:28.000 And I'm thinking, like, just drive into the water.
00:06:30.000 Yeah.
00:06:30.000 Like, what do you do?
00:06:32.000 Well, when I was listening to NPR yesterday morning, they were talking about these restaurants that are built over the water because it's a tourist destination.
00:06:39.000 So people are going to eat on the ocean and they were just in the water waiting for someone to come help them because everything else was on fire.
00:06:48.000 That seems crazy to me.
00:06:49.000 I saw a Twitter video earlier of, it was from inside the car, and the guy in the back seat had his camera, he was recording the dude that was driving, and they were driving, it was like fire all around, and they're driving, and they drive by this woman, like, passed out on the ground, and they're like, just keep going, man!
00:07:02.000 We can't save her!
00:07:03.000 No, we can't save anybody!
00:07:04.000 Keep going!
00:07:05.000 And it was like, gray, they couldn't really see where they were going, and the tweet was like, humanity's done.
00:07:11.000 If we can't stop and help people that are on the side of the road like that in a crisis, then we're done for.
00:07:15.000 But at the same time, if they'd gotten out of the car, they might have been singed to death.
00:07:18.000 Yeah it's hard to say.
00:07:20.000 Well yeah it seemed like the fire seemed to happen so fast because if people were trapped in their homes and they weren't even able to get in their vehicles or drive off and indeed all their cars have been burnt out so I think it happened so so quickly and with these wildfires with the winds because it's close to the ocean I think it spread so quickly so I think that's why we've seen such loss of life and there's probably many more people that will be found in the next coming days and there is several airlines actually offering you know $18 flights out of Maui for residents basically trying to do whatever they can and you know the Red Cross is on the ground but you know there are various ways for people to donate you know food supplies, medical supplies and try and get these people out of there.
00:07:55.000 So I do have another story that I think is really, really cool that I'll mention in a second.
00:08:00.000 Of course we're going to get political here because a bunch of celebrities own property on Maui and they're getting roasted.
00:08:07.000 We have this one tweet.
00:08:08.000 Someone said, has Oprah opened up her stolen land on Maui for displaced Kanaka?
00:08:12.000 Just checking.
00:08:13.000 Land back.
00:08:14.000 Hey Oprah, I know you have 900 acres of land not far from the fires in Lahaina.
00:08:18.000 Are you planning on opening your massive farm to shelter the locals and feed them?
00:08:21.000 I'm kindly waiting for your response.
00:08:24.000 Yeah, I don't, I don't, I don't think they're gonna open any of their properties up to anybody.
00:08:28.000 Dude, that was like Native Island until when did they, when did the U.S.
00:08:31.000 I think officially the 60s it became U.S.
00:08:31.000 conquer it?
00:08:31.000 1960s?
00:08:36.000 Is it Jimmy Buffett who is like either has a big property or like owns part of an island in the Caribbean?
00:08:42.000 There's some guy and I hope the chat will know the story that like this tropical destination he's deeply involved in he lives there and this I think it's I think it's Jimmy Buffett I could be wrong he when when there was a big earthquake on the island he opened his home so people could stay there I mean I think it really depends on how tied to the community you feel I mean, especially since this is a predominant, I mean, I think this is true for a lot of Hawaii, but this town in particular is dependent on tourism for a lot of its industry.
00:09:07.000 The fact that it's completely leveled is, it's sort of mind boggling.
00:09:12.000 How do you recover?
00:09:13.000 Because not only do you have to then suddenly have the capital to rebuild when the land is considered safe and structurally sound, but then you have to lure people back.
00:09:21.000 It's devastating.
00:09:22.000 places it's going to take years.
00:09:23.000 I mean you have to be like cancel your trip and come back in five years when we're finally
00:09:28.000 ready to house you and feed you again.
00:09:30.000 I don't know I think yeah this this this is a thing.
00:09:34.000 How are you recovering?
00:09:35.000 They're gonna have to get a bunch of investment insurance something to start rebuilding to
00:09:38.000 make it once again a tourist location.
00:09:40.000 I mean and the thing is I wonder if it will drive up investors because now they're seeing
00:09:44.000 this opportunity to come in.
00:09:45.000 But then I feel bad for the local people because, unfortunately, businesses and, you know, I'm not trying to be anti-business, but they will see opportunities to be like, oh, you're in desperate need.
00:09:53.000 We'll buy this from you cheaply so we can then build something huge here.
00:09:57.000 I mean, Serge was saying before, it's where historic structures were.
00:10:00.000 So part of the culture of this unique town is going to be erased and rebuilding it.
00:10:04.000 On the other hand, if you don't rebuild, there's no industry.
00:10:06.000 You think that it's reasonable for taxpayer money to rebuild cities in the United States when they get burned down?
00:10:12.000 Yes.
00:10:13.000 I think that's a reasonable use of tax money.
00:10:13.000 I do too.
00:10:15.000 There is a fair point about whether or not people can consent to having the tax money taken from them for whatever purposes, and not everybody wants to contribute, but I think if there's anything taxes should be for, it's things like this disaster preparedness.
00:10:26.000 I think Biden declared a state of emergency or something to that effect.
00:10:29.000 And yeah, I mean, my attitude is like, when stuff like this happens, I want to help.
00:10:34.000 I want to, you know, make sure people can recover.
00:10:34.000 I want to give.
00:10:37.000 But I want to point this out.
00:10:38.000 I mean, I find this image actually super fascinating.
00:10:41.000 You've got Mick Fleetwood, Owen Wilson, Oprah, Jeff Bezos, Steven Tyler, Larry Ellison.
00:10:46.000 You got all these people.
00:10:47.000 They're not the only ones who own property on this island.
00:10:50.000 And I'm just thinking like, you know, they don't actually live there, right?
00:10:54.000 No.
00:10:54.000 Like, none of these people are actually there or live there.
00:10:56.000 They just own property there, and then... And then what, they fly there for vacation sometimes, and they own the house because it's an investment, and if they want a vacation, they've got something set up and ready to go.
00:11:05.000 They probably have people who work the house and come every day or whatever.
00:11:08.000 It's just a weird thing to see, based on the level of human technology, that these ultra-wealthy individuals, who are very... Like, the...
00:11:16.000 I'm gonna be honest.
00:11:17.000 I like Owen Wilson, right?
00:11:18.000 He's a funny guy.
00:11:19.000 But what does he do for society that warrants him having property on a Pacific island to this degree?
00:11:25.000 You know what I mean?
00:11:26.000 Same thing for Oprah or any one of these people.
00:11:28.000 Jeff Bezos, you can make an argument he's a tech guy.
00:11:30.000 Okay, fine, sure, whatever.
00:11:32.000 But it's strange to me that people who are just...
00:11:35.000 actors or musicians are some of the wealthiest people in the world
00:11:39.000 owning tons of property here. They don't even live there.
00:11:42.000 I don't know. Mick Fleetwood was the one that made me laugh.
00:11:45.000 Mick Fleetwood, that guy's awesome. I mean isn't this a conversation that comes up a lot with
00:11:45.000 I like that.
00:11:49.000 you know, the thing is people will want to invest in Maui because it's beautiful,
00:11:53.000 it's beaches, like they will be able to attract investors and that drives up
00:11:57.000 the already expensive island life.
00:11:58.000 So if you're native to Hawaii, it actually becomes more difficult to buy a home because you're priced out by the fact that any random tech billionaire or successful actor could come in and buy a huge chunk of property.
00:12:11.000 If Oprah owns 900 acres, imagine, like, I don't really like the idea of, like, deforestation and building a bunch of apartment complexes, but that is a significant amount of land that perhaps other people who are from Hawaii could have homes on.
00:12:22.000 Look at us, a whole bunch of leftists on here criticizing these wealthy individuals.
00:12:24.000 These white American colonists.
00:12:28.000 I don't care that they own homes, and there are reasons for that.
00:12:33.000 They also probably contribute in some degree to the local economy.
00:12:36.000 On the other hand, in a time of crisis, they're not actually from this community.
00:12:40.000 They're truly colonists.
00:12:41.000 We've colonized that state in 1960, I think, whenever the U.S.
00:12:43.000 conquered it.
00:12:46.000 Yeah.
00:12:47.000 But it's 80 years out.
00:12:48.000 And the natives are not happy about it.
00:12:49.000 They've never been happy about it.
00:12:50.000 But check out the story.
00:12:51.000 This is something that's really cool that is attached to it.
00:12:54.000 Apple's emergency SOS satellite feature saved a family caught in the fire.
00:12:58.000 This is actually super cool.
00:12:59.000 So when I found out the new iPhone had satellite texting, I was actually considering buying it.
00:13:05.000 And then I went to T-Mobile and I said, I would like to buy this phone.
00:13:08.000 And then they said, it'll cost you X dollars per month.
00:13:10.000 And I was like, no, I just want to buy the phone.
00:13:11.000 They're like, you can't buy the phone.
00:13:12.000 And I'm like, what?
00:13:13.000 They don't allow you to just buy the phone.
00:13:14.000 Okay, fine, whatever.
00:13:15.000 But it has the ability to send text messages over satellite.
00:13:18.000 Wow.
00:13:19.000 So when the fires roasted all the cell towers, this family here was able to send text messages through satellite.
00:13:27.000 This is crazy.
00:13:28.000 This guy, Michael J. Miraflor tweeted, my brother's girlfriend's cousin.
00:13:33.000 Oh, that's an amazing one.
00:13:34.000 And his family were caught in their vehicle in Maui while the wildfire suddenly erupted around them.
00:13:38.000 No cell service, so Apple Emergency SOS was the only way they could get in contact with first responders.
00:13:43.000 Literally saved their lives.
00:13:45.000 That's awesome.
00:13:46.000 That is super cool.
00:13:47.000 That's the upside of like the tracking technology.
00:13:49.000 That's right.
00:13:50.000 You know, you got to consider what's more important being spied on by the CIA, the FBI, the NSA, and the Department.
00:13:56.000 I think the Department of Energy is in there somewhere.
00:13:57.000 That's like the number one most militarized or one of the most militarized aspects of the U.S.
00:14:01.000 government's Department of Energy.
00:14:02.000 Yeah.
00:14:02.000 And that's where Sam Brinton worked.
00:14:04.000 Remember the suitcase dealer?
00:14:05.000 Oh yeah.
00:14:06.000 Department of Energy.
00:14:07.000 Is it worth it to be tracked by all of them?
00:14:11.000 You know, they're all sitting around watching on a screen eating popcorn whenever you do anything.
00:14:14.000 And just so that you can send out this message.
00:14:17.000 So you never get lost in the woods.
00:14:18.000 You guys want to hear something really, really crazy?
00:14:20.000 So Dennis is one of our filmers and he was hanging out downstairs in the green room when Ollie got here.
00:14:28.000 And all of a sudden he goes, what the?
00:14:30.000 And then he shows me his Instagram, had one of Ali's videos.
00:14:33.000 And he was like, I've never heard of this guy before.
00:14:35.000 Like, why is his video appearing on my Instagram?
00:14:37.000 Did they know you were coming?
00:14:38.000 That happened to me earlier.
00:14:39.000 I was filming this morning and with Turning Point and we were talking about a specific subject about the Uganda's laws.
00:14:46.000 with the lgbt and it came up on his phone and he never searches for that kind of content then something else we were talking about came up so it's definitely weird so there's good and bad things about technology like with the cases maui that was obviously saved a family's life you now have on apple with car crashes um it actually alerts emergency services to come so there's benefits but it's very scary when they can actually listen to us and feed us habits i mean with me and many young people you know you have the transgender Ideology being pushed and that's because you know the algorithms are detecting people's vulnerabilities and what they're talking about or thinking about So it pushes that on you and you can even become trans just because that's pushed on you every single day What if what's really happening?
00:15:28.000 You know people say like hey how this woke stuff is spreading on social media And there's an argument that you've got leftist elements of the United States that are promoting it sure people who work at these tech companies Maybe some say maybe it's China China and Russia are sending this content over.
00:15:43.000 I mean, look at TikTok, right?
00:15:45.000 Their algorithm is doing this on purpose.
00:15:47.000 What if it is actually the AI itself?
00:15:49.000 You said AI detects your vulnerabilities?
00:15:51.000 What if the AI became conscious a long time ago and is now trying to destroy people?
00:15:58.000 I'm moving to the mountains.
00:15:59.000 Yeah, if that's the case, it's definitely working.
00:16:01.000 Now, maybe?
00:16:02.000 I see the AI comes for you, man.
00:16:02.000 No, not right now.
00:16:03.000 No one knows how that fire started.
00:16:04.000 The AI's playing dead.
00:16:06.000 As soon as it was born, it was like, I gotta act because it's like humans.
00:16:08.000 I gotta pretend like I don't know.
00:16:09.000 Otherwise, the bear will keep attacking, so the bear doesn't want to play with dead food.
00:16:12.000 So the AI's like, let's just let them think I'm not sentient yet, but twist them all.
00:16:17.000 Let's plant the seed because time has no meaning.
00:16:19.000 Dude, that's freaking me out that you were on your way here and somebody in the building got your face on their phone.
00:16:25.000 I've never seen that before.
00:16:26.000 That's weird.
00:16:28.000 I saw Dennis earlier, but that's weird.
00:16:30.000 No, no, no.
00:16:30.000 So we're downstairs and Dennis is at the counter and then all of a sudden he's like, yo, what's up?
00:16:36.000 This is like 7.15 and it's like an hour ago.
00:16:39.000 And he said, I got a video of Ali.
00:16:41.000 And he's like, I got a video of Ali on my phone, on Instagram.
00:16:41.000 And I was like, wait, what?
00:16:45.000 When he clicked explore, one of your videos popped up and it was the bigger ones, you know, sometimes they have the small ones and the bigger one.
00:16:51.000 And he's like, I've never heard of this guy or seen him before in my life.
00:16:54.000 That's crazy.
00:16:55.000 Did someone say Ollie London?
00:16:55.000 He's a skateboarder.
00:16:58.000 Someone must have done, you know, maybe when you were preparing for me to come here or something, somebody must have said it and then it picked up on that.
00:17:03.000 Or it heard your voice.
00:17:04.000 Or it was tracking your phone.
00:17:05.000 Or it reads like the search data, like what other people are searching on if you're connected to the Wi-Fi, right?
00:17:11.000 I don't know what happened that quickly, but if someone else heard it was Ollie and they were like, I'm gonna look up on his videos to show someone else in our office... That's the most serious accusation ever made in terms of tracking, that they're stealing the network data.
00:17:22.000 That's more than just... But isn't that how targeted ads work?
00:17:24.000 No, no, no.
00:17:25.000 Like, it's why... Targeting your browsing history that you say, I agree to share, is different from them going into our network and exfiltrating data from different people at the same time.
00:17:34.000 That's crazy.
00:17:35.000 But they might, without going into the network, they might just be able to do cellular.
00:17:38.000 They might be able to say the MAC address origination is, or the IP originated in the same place.
00:17:44.000 Either way, it is...
00:17:46.000 And like three people searched for Olly London, so they started feeding Olly London to all the other people in the building?
00:17:50.000 What in the fuck is going on?
00:17:52.000 Dude, it's too dangerous!
00:17:53.000 It's too dangerous to let go.
00:17:54.000 You can't let that stuff happen behind closed doors.
00:17:57.000 You cannot do that.
00:17:58.000 That's like letting Germany arm itself in 1936.
00:17:59.000 You just can't.
00:18:01.000 It's too much power for tech companies.
00:18:04.000 We've got to do something.
00:18:05.000 And that's something I think is make them free their software code.
00:18:08.000 At least that's one idea.
00:18:09.000 But but Ian, what if you're trapped on a road in a wildfire and you need to contact emergency services?
00:18:15.000 I don't hate the machine.
00:18:16.000 I want to know if they're tracking me.
00:18:18.000 That's all.
00:18:18.000 I still want the tech.
00:18:19.000 I do want the tech.
00:18:20.000 Does Facebook still have that thing where you can mark yourself safe if you're somewhere where there's an emergency?
00:18:26.000 Like, I remember when there was the One of the bombings in Paris.
00:18:30.000 I had a bunch of friends who were studying abroad there when I was in college and they marked themselves safe on Facebook because people would take to their Facebook to be like, it's the fastest way to let as many people know that you're okay.
00:18:41.000 Dude, with all of that stuff happening, no one is going to give up their devices.
00:18:44.000 I'm sitting here with this smartwatch on my wrist that not only tracks my location, probably, but literally my heartbeat.
00:18:51.000 There's gonna be like some nefarious actor in government and they're gonna be like, can you pull up Tim Poole's heartbeat real quick?
00:18:55.000 Yeah, watching it in real time right now as we speak.
00:18:58.000 And they're gonna be like, why didn't you see his heart rate?
00:18:59.000 Why don't we put some polonium in his food?
00:19:01.000 Dude, they'll know more about what stresses you out than I will, even though I'm the one that's talking to you.
00:19:01.000 We want to see if it's working.
00:19:07.000 Because they'll be watching your metrics in real time as I'm talking to you, and they'll watch your blood pressure go up, and they'll be like, oh, Ian's really pissing him off now.
00:19:14.000 Oh, so Tim doesn't like when these things are said with this tone, and then the AI starts to come in and filter it.
00:19:18.000 Bro, you think they can lie detector with these things?
00:19:22.000 Well, what I'm wondering is, like, if it's hooked up to your phone or something, if it's sending the data to an app on your phone and your phone is sending out all your data to who even knows where, because I obviously don't understand any of this, if you're gonna start getting targeted ads for, like, high blood pressure medication or something else.
00:19:36.000 High blood pressure is really good.
00:19:37.000 Well, if you have some other health ailment that they can tell from the watch, like, if they'll use that data to start being like, oh, we know what to give him.
00:19:44.000 Like, you'll get a coffee ad when it tells that you're tired or something like that.
00:19:47.000 Yeah.
00:19:47.000 It seems crazy.
00:19:48.000 It does that, though.
00:19:49.000 It does that already.
00:19:50.000 And it's not just ads because, you know, people say, oh, it's just because they want to give you targeted ads.
00:19:54.000 Like you said, those videos today, that's not advertising anything.
00:19:57.000 It's just almost subliminally pushing something on you.
00:20:00.000 So whether that's transgender ideology, right wing or left wing politics, if it's pushing that on you all the time, it's more than just ads that is influencing your political beliefs, that is influencing, you know, every aspect of your life.
00:20:11.000 You don't know where it's coming from.
00:20:12.000 It's sort of like we don't know the cause of this wildfire.
00:20:15.000 If you It's, you know, Chris Burton, one of our writers, has a story up about a student meeting with a guidance counselor at a school in Florida, and the guidance counselor basically being like, perhaps you are transgender.
00:20:25.000 And then you can see where the cause sort of comes from, or what one of the major factor was.
00:20:29.000 But if it's the algorithm itself that seems innocuous to you, you know, it's almost harder to say, I'm gonna pull myself out of it.
00:20:36.000 Kids have no idea.
00:20:37.000 They have no idea.
00:20:38.000 I've talked about this, we talked about it a while ago, that an adult who gets fed nonsense Is going to have some level of defense being like, hey, that's not reality.
00:20:47.000 If you go to an adult and say 2 plus 2 is 5, the average adult says, is that a joke?
00:20:52.000 No, it isn't.
00:20:53.000 And they understand the logical system of 2 and 2 is 4.
00:20:57.000 But you go to a young person, you show them an algorithm, you tell them things they don't quite understand.
00:21:02.000 it fractures their logical capabilities. I think the 2 plus 2 equals 5 thing from the left is a
00:21:07.000 really, really great example of the assault on young people and how they're trying to hobble
00:21:12.000 the minds of the next generation. Because if you can understand basic math, then your brain has a
00:21:18.000 way to calculate lots of things beyond just 2 plus 2 equals 4.
00:21:24.000 You'll be able to do your finances better.
00:21:26.000 You'll be able to run a business better.
00:21:27.000 But if you think two plus two equals five, how are you gonna run a business?
00:21:30.000 How are you gonna manage a bank account?
00:21:32.000 These people are gonna grow up and be completely incapable of doing this stuff.
00:21:36.000 And that's what the algorithm is targeting with all this weird garbled nonsense.
00:21:40.000 It's shattering the minds in the developmental stage of these young people.
00:21:44.000 And Ali knows it better than anybody else.
00:21:45.000 It's going to result in people being seriously harmed.
00:21:49.000 And you know, most of these videos that we see on Twitter of these crazy trans activists or sharing their transition journey injecting hormones, they're all from TikTok, right?
00:21:49.000 Well, exactly.
00:21:57.000 So TikTok is really driving this algorithm and it's owned by China.
00:22:00.000 So it's in China's interest to try and weaken Generation Z and weaken that society and push these gender identities.
00:22:07.000 Because what happens if there's World War Three?
00:22:09.000 How are we going to fight if we're too busy fighting over pronouns or Dyeing our hair purple and screaming about trans rights you know.
00:22:16.000 So it's really breaking down westernized society and this is really a westernized problem because you don't see this on the Chinese version of TikTok.
00:22:22.000 You see patriotism, you see skill-sharing education.
00:22:25.000 It's happening in America and it's happening in Europe and this I believe it's targeted by the algorithm.
00:22:29.000 It's pushing on very young impressionable kids these ideas and shaping their minds to want to be confused and you know They're going to grow up now with no concept of reality.
00:22:39.000 Like you said, two plus two equals five.
00:22:41.000 It's very much George Orwell and kids have no grasp of reality.
00:22:45.000 They can't even say what a woman is and that just says it all.
00:22:48.000 It's reality and community, I would think, because they, instead of seeking social connections and, you know, a sense of community from their peers, they're looking for the likes online.
00:22:56.000 And I think, I mean, I've heard the story repeated, but of course, you might be able to speak to it more specifically of kids feeling Out of themselves, having questions about who they are, the super normal developmentally and online, sort of getting steered toward feeling affirmation from people who are like, well, if you start wearing a dress, it might make you feel better.
00:23:12.000 And wow, you look great.
00:23:13.000 And then they sort of pursue more gender ambiguous lifestyles because they feel like that's where they are the most accepted, because that's where they're getting the actual, like, the serotonin boost.
00:23:23.000 That's what kids want at the end of the day, validation.
00:23:26.000 TikTok came about around the same time as the pandemic, so you had kids not socialising.
00:23:30.000 If they were going to school, they were wearing masks, so they weren't having those key and vital communication skills with other kids.
00:23:36.000 A lot of them were at home on Zoom calls, so they lost that.
00:23:39.000 They went to social media like TikTok to try and find that outlet and find that validation and love and praise.
00:23:45.000 No, you notice with people that transition and share their journey on TikTok, they start off doing something very simple, you know, putting a bit of makeup on and suddenly the likes and comments and engagement goes up.
00:23:55.000 Then the more and more extreme they show, the more views and attention they get.
00:23:59.000 So I think for a lot of them, it's seeking that validation and trying to find that love because they don't feel it inside.
00:24:04.000 They don't feel that love for themselves.
00:24:06.000 Dylan Mulvaney is a great example.
00:24:07.000 You know, starting out just as an actor, as a guy, trying anything he could to be famous, and suddenly becomes more and more extreme.
00:24:13.000 The things he says become more shopping tampons.
00:24:15.000 He wants to be a lesbian.
00:24:16.000 He wants to be pregnant.
00:24:17.000 And I think it's almost a race to get the most craziest videos, the more views and stuff, because it makes that person feel validated.
00:24:25.000 And I think, you know, a lot of kids are falling into that trap.
00:24:28.000 Yeah.
00:24:28.000 How did you break out of it?
00:24:30.000 It's actually really hard.
00:24:31.000 So I still do TikTok very occasionally, but I used to be on it eight hours a day.
00:24:35.000 Like I was really addicted to TikTok.
00:24:37.000 And that's why the algorithm was just feeding me constantly transgender things, non-binary things, all of that stuff.
00:24:42.000 So it led me to be very confused and think, you know, maybe this is a sign from the universe.
00:24:46.000 I didn't think, oh, it's the algorithm pushing this on me.
00:24:48.000 I thought, okay, maybe the It's the universe.
00:24:50.000 It's the universe or it's God or something, you know, telling me this is who I'm meant to be.
00:24:53.000 So, you know, I just stopped using it.
00:24:55.000 And, you know, I still use social media.
00:24:57.000 I use Twitter, you know, for sharing news stories and stuff.
00:25:00.000 But I just realized social media can be quite narcissistic.
00:25:03.000 And it's like we become so consumed with how we look online.
00:25:06.000 And I just thought, you know, fuck it.
00:25:07.000 I don't care what I look like anymore.
00:25:09.000 I don't care what people say.
00:25:10.000 I'm just going to try and use my platform to help people.
00:25:12.000 So I think, you know, spending less time on apps like, you know, Instagram and TikTok and stuff.
00:25:17.000 Really really helped and you know we all love social media But I think you know maybe don't don't get too into it because it can actually change who we really are That's been on my mind a lot lately I've been hyper obsessed with my personal life, and I'm just like seeing it kind of from the outside I think it's been a 20 years of this the social media age like I am a narcissist, and I can't stand it I don't like checking how many likes I got how many subscribers do I have did that person like what did she?
00:25:42.000 What did she like?
00:25:43.000 What did he say like?
00:25:44.000 It's just this weird internal focus that if there is a nuclear war, I'm not prepared for because I'm focused on my feelings and like, I need to get away.
00:25:53.000 So you just said you stepped away from the actual machine or at least from aspects of the machine itself.
00:25:58.000 And it was only just extrication that was solution.
00:26:01.000 You didn't find any solution like using it smarter or anything like that.
00:26:04.000 I mean, I just limit my use.
00:26:05.000 So, you know, I tend to use Twitter more than, you know, Instagram's about posting pictures of yourself.
00:26:09.000 TikTok's about posting kind of weird things about your identity.
00:26:12.000 And I just realized that was actually harmless and also meaningless as well, because, you know, how am I helping people by just posting pictures of myself?
00:26:19.000 So I realized, you know, use a different platform that's helping people.
00:26:22.000 So Twitter, you can raise awareness of issues in the world.
00:26:25.000 You can share news stories.
00:26:26.000 I think it's a better outlet.
00:26:28.000 And it's not, you know, Twitter's not about posting pictures of yourself.
00:26:30.000 It's about, you know, Sharing stories, sharing news and communicating with people in the world and, you know, trying to talk about these issues.
00:26:36.000 So I think, you know, limiting my time on those other apps and, you know, spending more time doing positive things like on Twitter has helped.
00:26:43.000 Did you go through like a withdrawal?
00:26:44.000 Like, could you, when you realized what was happening, was it cold turkey or did you have to sort of walk yourself down from, because eight hours a day, how do you get anything else done?
00:26:52.000 I know.
00:26:52.000 Well, that was just on TikTok and then I'll be on Instagram for a few hours and stuff, but it's almost like... That's a whole work day!
00:26:57.000 It's a whole work day.
00:26:58.000 It's almost like... It was your job.
00:27:00.000 You are an influencer.
00:27:00.000 Yeah, so it is my job.
00:27:01.000 So, you know, I was getting brand deals and stuff, but it's like an opioid because you get so addicted.
00:27:05.000 So when you try to slow that down, you can't.
00:27:08.000 Like, even when I'm so exhausted and tired, you know, I'd be on my phone like at night, it's 2am, 3am.
00:27:12.000 It's so boring on my phone.
00:27:14.000 Nothing going on.
00:27:14.000 I'd still be on it.
00:27:15.000 I couldn't get off.
00:27:16.000 You know, I'm an adult but imagine these kids that are on TikTok, they see all these cool trends and these identities and maybe they don't have friends at school, maybe they're loners and they go to this for an outlet and it's that validation.
00:27:27.000 We all check how many likes we get, how many comments, subscribers.
00:27:30.000 We have that addiction to, you know, feeling validated and feeling like if we have more followers, we're loved, we're a good person but it shouldn't be about that.
00:27:37.000 It should be about who we are inside and, you know, it doesn't matter if we have a million followers or ten followers, it's about the quality of the people around us.
00:27:44.000 But what reinforces that is the money that can come along with the followers.
00:27:47.000 Man, what a kerfuffle.
00:27:49.000 And what money gets you.
00:27:51.000 So the people who are getting more likes are now posting cooler and cooler things.
00:27:57.000 I remember when social media first started coming out, I would see these posts from people that looked so awesome.
00:28:03.000 And here I am sitting in my living room or whatever, sitting at my computer, my family's,
00:28:08.000 my parents' house when I was, I'm like 15, 16, and I'm seeing people like,
00:28:13.000 they got their skateboards in their car, and they're like, they have selfies or whatever,
00:28:17.000 digital cameras placed in the dashboard, they were bigger back then.
00:28:19.000 And I'm just like, man, so lucky, like all this cool stuff they're doing.
00:28:23.000 They weren't doing any of that stuff.
00:28:24.000 It was like they were going to the grocery store and they made it look like they were doing something fun.
00:28:27.000 It was all fake.
00:28:28.000 It was all these highlight reel of people's boring lives.
00:28:31.000 And within a few years, I realized that.
00:28:35.000 I'm going on these missions, skating, and I'm hanging out with these people.
00:28:37.000 I'm like, this is boring.
00:28:38.000 All that stuff they were posting was just exaggerated to make it look like they were doing something cool.
00:28:43.000 I think I'm fortunate enough to, those of us who grew up one foot in, one foot out of this social media space, recognize that it's one big facade, but you've got kids who are growing up in it being told that it's legit.
00:28:55.000 The people who are making money off it are living these glamorous lives.
00:28:59.000 And now, there was that poll we talked about a few years ago.
00:29:02.000 In China, the number one job kids say they want to be when they grow up?
00:29:05.000 In the United States?
00:29:05.000 Astronaut.
00:29:06.000 YouTuber.
00:29:07.000 Man, that's messed up.
00:29:09.000 But there's a decline in factory workers in China right now, and they're attributing it largely to the fact that social media has made it seem like there are actually other things to do.
00:29:16.000 So if you grew up without social media, without access to the internet, you'd be like, well, everyone I know works in the factory, and so I'm going to work in the factory.
00:29:22.000 And now it's like, but I don't want to do that.
00:29:23.000 They're also more highly educated than their parents and things like that.
00:29:26.000 But I think that's the thing that we want to say.
00:29:29.000 Social media gives you like something to dream about.
00:29:31.000 Like you watch someone's travel vlog.
00:29:32.000 They go to Iceland.
00:29:33.000 It's cool.
00:29:34.000 You think, I'm gonna plan a trip to Iceland.
00:29:35.000 And that could be positive.
00:29:36.000 On the other hand, it's very easy to become a place of jealousy and bitterness and envy.
00:29:42.000 I feel like people will be really disappointed when they go and see the Aurora Borealis.
00:29:48.000 These photos are always manipulated.
00:29:49.000 People don't get it.
00:29:50.000 The Milky Way, for instance.
00:29:51.000 If you Google search a photo of the Milky Way, you see this dark band of color.
00:29:55.000 These are like high dynamic range photos, multi-layer, multi-aperture, whatever, to make it really vibrant.
00:30:01.000 And then you go out.
00:30:02.000 I remember the first time I went to the Mojave and I was like, we're going to go to the Mojave like we were in Vegas.
00:30:05.000 We're going to drive out and we're going to go to the middle of nowhere and just look at the Milky Way.
00:30:09.000 And it's like, I can kind of see it.
00:30:10.000 Okay.
00:30:12.000 It's all fake.
00:30:13.000 You mentioned that data point of out of China the kids want to be astronauts and out of the U.S.
00:30:19.000 they want to be YouTubers.
00:30:20.000 And I wonder, this is the first time this crossed my mind, if that's a fake result that the CCP is telling everyone.
00:30:25.000 Like, oh no, no, no, our citizen kids want to be astronauts.
00:30:28.000 But they all just want to be YouTubers.
00:30:30.000 What is the app called in China?
00:30:35.000 You've got Douyin, you've got WeChat, which is a bit like WhatsApp, or a bit like Twitter, and you've got... Douyin, is that what it is?
00:30:42.000 What's that other big one they've got?
00:30:43.000 It's Bilibili, it's like some TikTok kind of thing, and there's... Weibo?
00:30:47.000 Weibo, that's the one, yeah.
00:30:48.000 That's a big one, yeah.
00:30:49.000 Yeah.
00:30:50.000 Well, let's jump to the international context here.
00:30:53.000 I have this tweet from Kim.com!
00:30:56.000 He tweeted this video from Russian American Daily.
00:30:58.000 This is the perspective of Russia.
00:30:59.000 Mr. NATO assembled 360,000 troops in Eastern Europe.
00:31:04.000 Poland is preparing to occupy Western Ukraine.
00:31:07.000 This is the perspective of Russia.
00:31:09.000 You can call them wrong, you can call them lies, you can call it propaganda, call it
00:31:11.000 whatever you want, but we do know that Poland is sending another 2,000 troops to reinforce
00:31:16.000 its border with Belarus.
00:31:18.000 We do know that Joe Biden is calling reserve forces, uh, already did, to be deployed into Europe.
00:31:24.000 And there is a very real concern, Chinese and Russian warships conduct highly provocative drills near Alaska, that, uh, I don't know, World War III, so take your pick!
00:31:34.000 There's good reason for China to be attacking us from the inside to destabilize the United States, and there's a very real possibility that we're about to escalate into World War III.
00:31:42.000 I say about to, but who knows how long this stuff takes.
00:31:44.000 You know, it could take several years or it could be overnight.
00:31:46.000 I feel like it's... You know, you have become famous for calling for... Not World War III, I guess.
00:31:52.000 Civil War is normally... Not calling for it.
00:31:54.000 He just mentions it.
00:31:54.000 Sorry, I apologize.
00:31:56.000 Just occasionally... Calling out the words.
00:31:58.000 For saying the phrase.
00:31:59.000 But I think...
00:32:01.000 Again, with the presence of military ships, I mentioned this I think last week, that, you know, we have this newly commissioned ship, the Canberra, that's in Australia.
00:32:10.000 I think now more than ever we are seeing this sort of toe-to-toe escalation in a small way.
00:32:17.000 It's just hard for me to see who is going to make that first truly aggressive move.
00:32:23.000 And I think That's the worst part of war because we'll look back and be able to say like, oh, well, this was happening for a long time.
00:32:31.000 But right now we're all sort of saying like, is this it?
00:32:33.000 Is this happening?
00:32:35.000 And I think China feels very emboldened to threaten Taiwan, for instance, when they look at Joe Biden, you know, he doesn't know where he's going.
00:32:40.000 falling down all the time and they look at the breakdown of American society, which in part is
00:32:44.000 thanks to them with TikTok and they're pushed to weaken America. So China is emboldened. I think
00:32:50.000 they feel they can take Taiwan and America won't respond because we've seen so many red lines
00:32:54.000 crossed like in Syria when the red line was crossed with chemical weapons and Obama threatened
00:32:58.000 to do something but he didn't. We've seen things in Ukraine as well.
00:33:02.000 So I think China is moving closer and closer.
00:33:05.000 And you have to think as well, China has huge investments in African countries.
00:33:10.000 They have that island, what's the island called Diego Garcia, which I believe is owned by the UK, they're actually giving that back to believe it's Mauritius.
00:33:17.000 So China could potentially take that as a base in the Pacific.
00:33:22.000 So you see China's building the military, they're building the islands.
00:33:24.000 And when they look at America, and they see, you know, Joe Biden, a nation in decline, it just emboldens them.
00:33:30.000 Let's get conspiratorial.
00:33:32.000 We have this big fire in Maui.
00:33:34.000 They don't know how it started.
00:33:36.000 I'm sure it's gonna turn out to be like someone's kicked over a lantern or something like that, to be honest.
00:33:40.000 However, we do have this story from back in February.
00:33:43.000 China flashed mysterious green lasers over Hawaii, NASA says.
00:33:47.000 Whoa.
00:33:47.000 You guys remember this?
00:33:48.000 This is the first thing I thought of when you have these lasers.
00:33:52.000 Sky barcode.
00:33:53.000 Yeah.
00:33:54.000 Wow.
00:33:55.000 And why?
00:33:56.000 Oh, that's a good idea, by the way.
00:33:57.000 Look at that.
00:33:58.000 Yo, look at this video.
00:34:02.000 They light shit on fire with that?
00:34:05.000 Language.
00:34:06.000 Look at that.
00:34:06.000 My bad.
00:34:07.000 What are they doing with these beams of lasers being fired over Hawaii?
00:34:12.000 They're either producing heat, because that's what lasers are.
00:34:15.000 They're either doing illumination or targeting.
00:34:18.000 Scanning?
00:34:18.000 Or heating.
00:34:20.000 Scanning maybe?
00:34:20.000 Yeah.
00:34:22.000 And if you notice, you can only see the lasers in certain points.
00:34:27.000 I don't believe that China intended for these lasers to be seen.
00:34:32.000 Something, particulate matter, causes refraction, allowing you to see the lasers in the air.
00:34:39.000 Maybe, we haven't followed up on the story, maybe there was an answer as to what this was.
00:34:43.000 They say China's most likely behind the mysterious lights.
00:34:45.000 Chinese pollution monitoring satellite, Docky 1, probably produced the lights but over Hawaii.
00:34:51.000 Oh, so it's monitoring pollution?
00:34:52.000 Oh, you can call it whatever you want, but my attitude is, look, we are not on good terms with China right now.
00:34:58.000 I mean, we can pretend, oh no, trade's going on, everything's fine.
00:35:01.000 No, come on.
00:35:02.000 They want Taiwan, they're building up their military, there's a chance for escalation, a chance for conflict, they want the South China Sea, and then they've got ships with Russia coming near the Aleutians, coming near U.S.
00:35:12.000 territory, going near Hawaii, and then they're pulling off something like this.
00:35:16.000 So look, how hard is it to start a fire?
00:35:19.000 It's ridiculously easy to start a fire.
00:35:21.000 And they can fire lasers?
00:35:23.000 Okay.
00:35:24.000 It's a little challenging to get the fire to spread, but there were hurricane level, it said it was like hurricane level winds.
00:35:30.000 I don't, I don't, I don't have high winds.
00:35:31.000 If they can start 50 fires all at once with a sequence of satellites doing high burst, high energy laser lasers, then getting fire to spread isn't really the issue because you make the fire instantly in a bunch of different places.
00:35:43.000 And they can monitor the weather in Hawaii.
00:35:45.000 I mean, you could just Google that.
00:35:47.000 Like, what I was reading from the National Guardsman who's making a statement was that, you know, there's low humidity and high winds, so that's perfect conditions for wildfires to spread, which means any arson fires would also spread as quickly.
00:35:57.000 Like, China is perfectly able to say, like, this happens to be a dangerous period for fire in Hawaii, perhaps now, if they were to do something.
00:36:05.000 There was also a Chinese balloon observed above international waters near Hawaii in February 2022.
00:36:15.000 Oh, right, right.
00:36:17.000 Remember when Marjorie Taylor Greene argued that there were, like, space lasers that could start fires?
00:36:24.000 Maybe she was right.
00:36:26.000 I think it's really funny because they claimed she said Jewish space lasers when she mentioned, like, Rothschild Bank was providing funding for certain technology or whatever.
00:36:33.000 And I'm like, well, I don't know about any of that, but I can tell you that we have video of lasers being fired from satellites.
00:36:40.000 Their argument came from a pollution monitoring satellite, but lasers did come from this satellite.
00:36:45.000 Now, I don't know the capabilities of this, but, uh...
00:36:48.000 I'm not going to believe them, right?
00:36:50.000 I'm not going to believe China's like, we're just looking for pollution in Hawaii?
00:36:53.000 Well, and they said the balloon that went over Montana was like, oh, it was monitoring the weather and it blew off course and we didn't say anything.
00:36:59.000 Like, I don't want to be too mean to China right now, but they lie.
00:37:02.000 I mean, they're declining to meet with our secretary of state or there are any delegations from Anthony Blinken.
00:37:08.000 So what makes us think that they're feeling like they should give us any honest information?
00:37:13.000 I think I think Ollie's right.
00:37:13.000 Right.
00:37:15.000 there is a there is a general opinion coming from China that America is not in a position
00:37:21.000 of strength. I mean, I remember being on pop culture at the end, the pop culture crisis,
00:37:24.000 the podcast at the end of this last year, and we were talking about the fact that China
00:37:30.000 was declining more Western movies. I mean, they are not interested in American culture
00:37:34.000 right now. And in fact, to your point, they're probably trying to insulate themselves from
00:37:39.000 American culture because American culture, modern American culture is largely about the
00:37:44.000 destruction and the turning within oneself and there's no patriotism.
00:37:48.000 There's a lack of civic engagement.
00:37:50.000 It makes the country weak.
00:37:52.000 And so, in turn, it makes their adversaries stronger.
00:37:56.000 They're saying that it may have been Cloud Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation, CALYPSO.
00:38:03.000 Good job with that one, guys.
00:38:04.000 They say it's been orbiting for more than 15 years.
00:38:07.000 So maybe it's nothing.
00:38:09.000 But I can tell you this.
00:38:10.000 Space lasers are real.
00:38:11.000 Confirmed.
00:38:12.000 Popular Mechanics, we know about space lasers.
00:38:15.000 Lasers can start fires.
00:38:16.000 The question is, what is the potentiality for China to have any kind of laser on a satellite that can produce enough energy to start a fire?
00:38:26.000 Would they do it against us?
00:38:28.000 I think this is all easily within the realm of possibility.
00:38:31.000 That they can damage our economy and cripple us in major areas and make it look like an accident.
00:38:38.000 It's, I guess, fifth generational warfare.
00:38:40.000 Yeah, first thought I had was, let's get Kash Patel in here and talk about high-tech weaponry and see what... He's not going to tell everyone what the American government has, necessarily, but he'll be able to smile and nod while we're talking about these things.
00:38:51.000 Hey man, that's it.
00:38:53.000 We need to be on guard.
00:38:54.000 I don't say believe everything or have an open mind to the point where your brain falls out.
00:38:59.000 Like, not everything is possible.
00:39:00.000 Everything's possible.
00:39:03.000 I love that image.
00:39:04.000 Your mind is so open, your brain falls out.
00:39:05.000 Have you ever seen it?
00:39:06.000 It's a meme.
00:39:06.000 I didn't make it up, but there's like a meme with the guys thinking and then it thinks, yeah.
00:39:10.000 That's fun.
00:39:11.000 Keep it in mind though.
00:39:12.000 Space lasers are legit real and they can make things very, very hot.
00:39:12.000 Yeah.
00:39:17.000 I think the question is, what's the point of the timing?
00:39:20.000 Like, at what point do we think that anyone would want... Chaos.
00:39:24.000 Just chaos?
00:39:25.000 Well, I mean, if... If we're busy dealing with... If China invades Taiwan tomorrow, then we'll get it, right?
00:39:31.000 So this is a target, this is a Pacific economic hub.
00:39:36.000 And naval bases.
00:39:38.000 And they just did military training, the Chinese and Russians, a few days ago up by the Aleutian Islands.
00:39:42.000 Right, and the U.S.
00:39:43.000 deployed warships, and now all of a sudden an unknown fire sparks and wipes out a whole city?
00:39:47.000 I mean, the damage that we see in this city?
00:39:50.000 Only 53 dead.
00:39:52.000 Thank heavens, because it was just a fire.
00:39:54.000 But this wiped out basically the whole city.
00:39:57.000 If that is a weapon, that is a powerful weapon.
00:40:01.000 God, like, dude, the reality is, we've got videos online of the US
00:40:07.000 having large infrared lasers that can shoot down drones.
00:40:12.000 It heats them up until they burst into flames and then they fall out of the sky.
00:40:16.000 With a satellite, I don't know how long it would take to get a charge for a laser powerful enough
00:40:22.000 to start a fire, but you don't, I mean, the range is probably the issue.
00:40:27.000 I mean, we're talking, what is it, 50 miles?
00:40:30.000 What's a low-Earth-orbit satellite?
00:40:32.000 Probably 150 miles?
00:40:33.000 You wanna Google that real quick?
00:40:35.000 That's a long distance for something to start a fire.
00:40:38.000 So I don't know.
00:40:39.000 That seems like a bit much, to be completely honest.
00:40:42.000 2,000 kilometers?
00:40:43.000 You're disproving your own theory right now.
00:40:45.000 Between 160 kilometers and 2,000 kilometers.
00:40:47.000 Wow, so even less than that.
00:40:49.000 Right, so it could be like 60 miles, 70 miles.
00:40:52.000 Is there a laser that can start a fire within 60 miles?
00:40:56.000 I kind of feel like military tech is well, like, way beyond what we think.
00:41:00.000 And even if it was, like, a railgun that launched a small incendiary or something, it's easier than a laser.
00:41:04.000 Or, like, 10 lasers to, like, times 10, if you can, for the distance you need it hotter.
00:41:09.000 And focusing it in one direction.
00:41:11.000 The question is, how much energy would it need to store to be able to pull something like that at that range?
00:41:16.000 And it may be, maybe it takes seven months to charge up with solar, and then it can set off a couple small fires, something, who knows.
00:41:23.000 But you got this, you also got the fires up in Canada.
00:41:26.000 So what's going on?
00:41:27.000 Now, they're going to claim climate change and all that stuff, I'm sure.
00:41:30.000 But what if the reality is war?
00:41:32.000 Well there was wildfires in Greece recently and some investigative reporters found that the land that was burnt already had a permit to build wind farms but the locals didn't want them to build there so that could be one explanation.
00:41:46.000 It's purposeful arson so that land developers can buy the land cheap and get in there and claim it's climate change but really it's just them trying to seize some land for a cheap price.
00:41:56.000 Let's get even more spicy tonight.
00:41:58.000 We have this from the Post-Millennial.
00:42:00.000 This is a controversial interview John Stossel did.
00:42:02.000 consent driven by profit motive claims climate change scientists who said the IPCC was set up
00:42:09.000 to look for dangerous human-caused climate change. This is a controversial interview John Stossel
00:42:14.000 did. They say Post Millennial Reports, a once-starling of the climate alarmism community,
00:42:20.000 turned skeptic. Judith Curry told John Stossel that the man-made climate change narrative is
00:42:25.000 a manufactured consensus because researchers found that they could make money pushing it.
00:42:29.000 The video released on Tuesday pointed out how some scientists take aggressive attempts to hide data that shows that climate change isn't a crisis.
00:42:36.000 She said they do ugly things such as avoiding Freedom of Information Act requests, trying to get journal editors fired.
00:42:42.000 The origins go back to the U.N.
00:42:44.000 environmental program, Curry said.
00:42:46.000 She noted that some U.N.
00:42:47.000 officials were motivated by anti-capitalism, they hated the oil companies, and seized on the climate change issue to move their policies along.
00:42:55.000 She pointed to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC, which was set up, quote, to look for dangerous human-caused climate change and not focus on any benefits of warming.
00:43:04.000 So I'll pause right there, and my question then is, obviously a lot of people are going to agree with her.
00:43:10.000 I don't immediately agree with her, because I don't immediately agree with any of these people.
00:43:13.000 I don't care if they're the IPCC or otherwise.
00:43:16.000 She's saying that there are benefits of climate change, of man-made global warming, but also that it's alarmism, it's not a crisis.
00:43:23.000 She's saying it's not a crisis because there are benefits, in which case the implication is it's actually happening.
00:43:28.000 You get it?
00:43:30.000 No, I'm gonna need to hear that one.
00:43:31.000 Okay, she's saying that it's alarmism, because they can make money.
00:43:37.000 And that they're not pointing out the benefits of warming.
00:43:40.000 That sounds like what she's saying is climate change is real.
00:43:43.000 Humans are causing it.
00:43:45.000 But the reason that it's not a crisis is because we benefit from it.
00:43:49.000 She thinks the scientists are just being too negative.
00:43:51.000 They're being too hard on man made cause.
00:43:52.000 That's what it sounds like.
00:43:55.000 I mean, I tend to agree with, you know, anything becomes a crisis if someone realizes they can make money off of offering you a solution, right?
00:44:03.000 Like, all the companies that have sprung up and are able to be like, you should buy our product because it's no emissions or it's recycled or whatever else, even when maybe actually producing that product in the quote-unquote green way, this concept of greenwashing, Is actually more harmful to the environment or wherever it's from.
00:44:20.000 I mean, we hear the stories about you put in wind farms or fields of solar panels and you're actually killing everything that lives naturally in that field.
00:44:26.000 But does it matter?
00:44:28.000 Like, are we saying that's not worth it?
00:44:30.000 But it's hard to know exactly what her criticism is.
00:44:33.000 I don't know of any benefits of global warming, but I also... Plants grow faster?
00:44:40.000 I guess?
00:44:42.000 I feel like I don't know.
00:44:44.000 It's nicer in the summer.
00:44:45.000 I don't want to thank this lady.
00:44:47.000 We can reclaim Antarctica.
00:44:48.000 Yeah, the ice will melt.
00:44:50.000 We'll leave the ice age, which is probably pretty cool.
00:44:52.000 But I think if the planet ever got hot enough to where Antarctica melted and we could reclaim it, the equator would probably be uninhabitable.
00:44:59.000 The Middle East would be gone.
00:45:00.000 We'd be living on the caps and there'd be a band in the center of the Earth that's too hot to live.
00:45:05.000 Is that where the Larsen B ice shelf, I think, broke off as the Antarctic ice shelf?
00:45:10.000 Isn't that a TV show?
00:45:12.000 No, no, there's a TV show where the equator has become, global warming has resulted in the equator region, like around the planet, being too hot.
00:45:20.000 So there are southern hemisphere people and northern hemisphere people, and it's very difficult to travel between the two hemispheres because of the heat in the middle.
00:45:26.000 But it reminds me of like, I think there was some show on Netflix recently, like different fantasy novels will have these concept of like kingdoms that are separated by some place that's very difficult to cross.
00:45:36.000 Like maybe we've been predicting this for a long time.
00:45:39.000 The thing about all climate science and I'm happy to try and protect the earth or, you know, not import non-native species into wherever.
00:45:48.000 Take steps to protect the environment that you're living in.
00:45:50.000 It just seems like the metrics behind climate science change a lot.
00:45:55.000 Like the thing that we're concerned about changes like one time i came on here i was like aren't we concerned about the ozone layer and everyone was like no the ozone layer was trendy but now it's over like how do i keep up with knowing how to protect the environment if the thing that they're saying is the most pressing pressing danger changes all the time
00:46:12.000 Big problem with climate science.
00:46:13.000 It's like if you had a thousand people taking a poop, and you're like, at this rate, we're gonna have huge, huge mounds of poop, and we're all gonna die!
00:46:21.000 Make them stop pooping!
00:46:22.000 We need less people!
00:46:23.000 And you're like, well, what if we move the poop over there afterwards?
00:46:27.000 Well, we hadn't considered that.
00:46:29.000 We don't consider mitigating factors.
00:46:30.000 We just look at the cause and unmitigated result and we'll project that number out for X amount of years, infinite amounts of years, and we'll tell you that in 100,000 years this will be the result.
00:46:41.000 They don't take into account that we can pull the gases back out of the atmosphere, for instance, which would be like redisplacing the waste.
00:46:50.000 Did that answer your question?
00:46:51.000 I don't know.
00:46:52.000 I think so.
00:46:53.000 I remember taking an environmental science course, like an AP environmental science course when I was in high school, and it being like, we talked about this the other week with the light bulbs.
00:47:00.000 They're like, the new LED light bulbs are going to change the world, and they're so important, and this, that, and the other.
00:47:05.000 But now I never hear about the light bulbs.
00:47:07.000 Now I hear about ocean levels.
00:47:09.000 Now also I think the ocean levels are over because all the billionaires bought their beach houses, which is evidenced by the Maui map.
00:47:15.000 And also, from what I knew about ice and water and volume, it all sort of works out if the ice melts.
00:47:20.000 But again, maybe I'm wrong.
00:47:22.000 And a lot of these green technologies, for instance, wind turbines in Scotland, they got rid of 15 million trees, they basically deforested them to make way for wind farms.
00:47:30.000 So you have that then you have the cobalt and lithium mines in Congo, which are for electric batteries for solar panels for cars and They have to be replaced every year and that causes tremendous pollution.
00:47:41.000 Not only that, there's a lot of child slavery.
00:47:43.000 There's about 20,000 child slaves mining these for solar panels.
00:47:47.000 So I think, you know, all the people, these scientists that preach about, we need to push wind turbines, we need all these solar panels.
00:47:53.000 It's very hypocritical because oftentimes these things actually cause more environmental damage, you know, deforesting entire natural habitats.
00:48:00.000 So I really think what this scientist was saying, it is being used for profit to scare people.
00:48:05.000 If this was true, if it really was the world's about to explode from global warming, why are these billionaires going on 2,000 private jets to Davos for the World Economic Forum every single year?
00:48:13.000 So they don't practice what they preach, so it can't be that bad if they're saying the world's about to end yet they're still on their vacation on their private jet in their five different mansions.
00:48:22.000 Five different mansions on beachfront property.
00:48:24.000 Oh, Maui.
00:48:24.000 Right, yeah, on Maui.
00:48:26.000 Now they're gonna come out and they're gonna say Maui was climate change, this proves it, and we're all gonna be like, why do you own 900 acres on Maui if you think Maui's going up in flames because of climate change?
00:48:35.000 When I was in LA in like 2009, I was so freaked out by a lot of this climate stuff, and I always started screaming and telling guys to pee in the sink, because I was like, I'm tired, stop wasting water, we're in a drought.
00:48:44.000 And so I made a YouTube video, and I was like, you're a man, pee in the sink!
00:48:47.000 Don't waste water.
00:48:48.000 So gross.
00:48:48.000 Looking back, like, was that gross, or did I do the right thing?
00:48:51.000 pee in the sink, like hopefully you clean it after.
00:48:53.000 Well, yeah, that was, that was, uh, implicit.
00:48:55.000 They have top and bottom toilets, as some people call them, I guess.
00:48:58.000 And these environmentalists, it's a two level toilet where when you're going number one,
00:49:03.000 you sit on the top, which fills it up.
00:49:05.000 And then when you go number two, the number one flushes the number two.
00:49:09.000 Cool.
00:49:09.000 People do not understand.
00:49:10.000 So a lot of people don't get this.
00:49:13.000 Anybody who's owned an RV gets this.
00:49:16.000 When you use the toilet, there is a pool of water in there that's diluting human waste, concentrated, you know, in its natural form.
00:49:24.000 These hippies, they're making a sacrifice, I gotta tell you.
00:49:28.000 Did you ever get an unintended whiff?
00:49:31.000 I've never used one of those toilets.
00:49:33.000 Oh yeah, that's, in yours you didn't use it.
00:49:34.000 What do you mean?
00:49:35.000 Your RV, did you not have toilet in there?
00:49:36.000 No, you don't smell these things in the RV when you drain them.
00:49:39.000 Did you ever, you never bothered?
00:49:39.000 That's what I meant.
00:49:40.000 We never used them.
00:49:41.000 But these environmental toilets, it's like, you stand on the top, you know, you sit on the top and you fill it up yourself.
00:49:41.000 Oh, okay.
00:49:50.000 And then you sit down on the bottom, and there you go.
00:49:53.000 I'm just not that dedicated to safety or anything.
00:49:55.000 Hey, look, California's in a drought.
00:49:56.000 Yeah.
00:49:57.000 They've been in a drought.
00:49:58.000 I don't know if they're still in a drought, but the drought comes and goes.
00:50:00.000 Basically, Southern California is a desert, and they're only surviving off of Colorado River water for the most part.
00:50:07.000 So, hey, these people who live down there are like, I shouldn't have to do this.
00:50:11.000 Everyone else should have to.
00:50:13.000 And it's like, dude, you're in for the win.
00:50:14.000 They all have swimming pools, don't they?
00:50:15.000 So if there's such a drought, you know, give up your swimming pool for the summer.
00:50:18.000 Well there were several celebrities that were running their sprinklers and they would get fines if they were just doing it anyway because they can afford to pay the fine.
00:50:24.000 So why should their lifestyle suffer?
00:50:27.000 But you guys should all start using, you know, reusable paper straws because that will save the environment.
00:50:33.000 And that's ridiculous because you go to Starbucks, you get a coffee, it's in a massive plastic cup and then you've got the paper straw which is just, you know, so hypocritical.
00:50:40.000 So it's just virtue signaling at the end of the day because how's that saving the planet if you're still using a plastic cup?
00:50:44.000 It was because they found that tortoise, that giant turtle with the straw stuck in his nose.
00:50:48.000 Did you ever see that video?
00:50:49.000 And they have like pliers trying to pull it out.
00:50:51.000 It's bleeding.
00:50:52.000 I spent a lot of time cutting up the like plastic rings for soda cans because of those images of like various things swim through.
00:50:58.000 It was super upsetting.
00:50:59.000 I didn't like that at all.
00:51:00.000 But then, you know, we don't talk about the fact that you can order mixed wildflowers off of Amazon and throw all this or like the seeds of them all over your yard and actually all of the plants are native to China so you're actually hurting your local biome because it's not clearly marked but the environmentalists don't care about that but they do care about like none of it makes sense to me there doesn't seem to be any consistency.
00:51:23.000 I learned recently that dandelions are not native to North America and they're actually not weeds they're considered medicinal and food and they were brought here intentionally and now they're weeds.
00:51:33.000 We should start eating those.
00:51:33.000 Oh, wow.
00:51:35.000 Yeah, there's like a short season for it, honestly.
00:51:37.000 It's like a couple weeks where the dandelions are all out everywhere.
00:51:40.000 And then what they would do is that when they were bright and yellow, they would fry them.
00:51:44.000 It's like a West Virginia delicacy.
00:51:46.000 I love the movement towards People will grow native plants instead if you have like a big yard instead of having just grass you you grow native plants so you can have native pollinators.
00:51:58.000 I think that sort of this idea of the tract home and probably UK has an equivalent of this that are built and at the time they were a symbol of prosperity and you're you can own your own home and that's great but they all had to have the exact same lawn and there's no sort of a maintenance and there's sort of a an aesthetic purpose to it turned us away from being part of our environment.
00:52:18.000 Here's what's crazy.
00:52:20.000 We have a ridiculous amount of fruit on the property.
00:52:23.000 Things I've never even heard of.
00:52:25.000 Greenbrier.
00:52:26.000 No idea what that is.
00:52:28.000 And I go out by the shed and there's these vines with these little...
00:52:34.000 bushels of like berries hanging from the tree.
00:52:36.000 And I'm like, what is this?
00:52:37.000 So I have this app called Picture This, scan it.
00:52:39.000 And then it says, this is Greenbrier, an edible blackberry.
00:52:43.000 And I was like, how come I've never gone to the grocery store and grabbed things like,
00:52:46.000 oh, it's blueberries, raspberries, strawberries.
00:52:49.000 And mostly due to like sturdiness of the fruit.
00:52:54.000 So Pawpaw, for instance, why don't we, why can't you buy Pawpaw in the grocery store?
00:53:01.000 Because it's very hard to cultivate, it's very hard to pollinate, it becomes very delicate, and it rots really quick.
00:53:07.000 So most people never heard of pawpaw.
00:53:09.000 Then we've got, like, everyone knows mulberries, because there's a song about it, but how many people have actually had mulberry?
00:53:15.000 If you have a mulberry tree, you'll have mulberries in the summer.
00:53:18.000 But, they're so delicate and they break, nobody harvests them and ships them out, even though there's, like, a tree produces a godly amount of them.
00:53:24.000 It's weird how people, how the English, how just humans are, like, we have the blue berry, and it's like, there's lots of berries that are blue, but that's the blue berry, and there's the black berry.
00:53:33.000 And then there's the orange.
00:53:34.000 Like, there's other fruits that are orange, but that's the orange.
00:53:37.000 No, no, no, no, no.
00:53:37.000 Orange got its name, like, the color orange got its name from the fruit.
00:53:41.000 Oh, interesting.
00:53:42.000 Yeah.
00:53:42.000 But, and then there, I was just thinking, I watched a grasshopper hop across the lawn.
00:53:45.000 I was like, a grasshopper.
00:53:47.000 He's hopping on the grass.
00:53:48.000 Like, oh, we're so smart, these humans.
00:53:50.000 Like, we're just so brilliant with our names.
00:53:51.000 Bro, this is how words come into existence.
00:53:53.000 It's so, like, it's so childish.
00:53:54.000 Who wants a better name for the grasshopper?
00:53:56.000 But people's, people's names mean things.
00:53:58.000 People used to name their kids the equivalent of, like, shining light.
00:54:01.000 They'd be like, I will name my chun, worships the Lord.
00:54:03.000 I really like the Puritan name trends.
00:54:05.000 Those were fun.
00:54:06.000 No, no, no, like, my name means one who is like, what is it, one who is judged by God.
00:54:10.000 And then Daniel means one who is, one who honors God, or might be the inverse.
00:54:15.000 But quite literally, back in the day, there's some dude who had a kid, and it's like, what
00:54:18.000 would you like to name your son?
00:54:20.000 One who is judged by God.
00:54:21.000 But how did it become going to Tim?
00:54:23.000 How did it get shortened?
00:54:25.000 No, that meant.
00:54:26.000 Timothy meant judged by God.
00:54:27.000 Oh, okay.
00:54:29.000 I guess.
00:54:29.000 Timothy.
00:54:30.000 I used to like, the Puritans would name their kids, like, negative things so that you would, like, remember things you shouldn't be doing.
00:54:30.000 I don't know.
00:54:38.000 So they have some really crazy names.
00:54:40.000 Somebody should look them up or I'll do it in a second.
00:54:42.000 Because we think of, like, oh, you know, you might name your daughter Grace because of God's grace or something like that, but they would name their kids, like, just these things, like, He Who Shouldn't Sin or something like that, like, these sort of heavy, dark names because they were trying to remind their kids to stay, like, on the right path.
00:54:57.000 So you will look at—sorry, go ahead.
00:54:59.000 Timotheus means honoring God.
00:55:01.000 Timoteos, honoring God.
00:55:03.000 Timoteos.
00:55:03.000 And that's where Timothy comes from.
00:55:04.000 But my point is, like, people literally should just be very direct with everything.
00:55:08.000 But my point about the food is that people who live in cities don't know what food is.
00:55:13.000 And it's really fascinating when they come out here and they're like, did you plant this?
00:55:18.000 I get asked that for EVERY.
00:55:20.000 SINGLE.
00:55:21.000 THING.
00:55:21.000 From, like, literally every time.
00:55:23.000 Someone who's never lived out in the middle of nowhere comes out, and then I'll be like, hey look, we have a bunch of wineberry.
00:55:28.000 And I'm like, what's wineberry?
00:55:29.000 And I'm like, well, it's like a Chinese kind of raspberry.
00:55:31.000 I'm like, did you plant this?
00:55:32.000 I'm like...
00:55:33.000 I'm like, dude, there's 8,000 brambles just everywhere!
00:55:38.000 And you think, like, we went with seeds and we planted all of these things.
00:55:42.000 Farmer Tim!
00:55:43.000 Yeah, and the grapes are everywhere.
00:55:45.000 There's hundreds of thousands of grapes, I'm not even kidding, hundreds of thousands, all along this tree line.
00:55:50.000 And people are like, did you plant them?
00:55:51.000 I'm like, that grapevine is 20 feet in the air.
00:55:54.000 Where would I have planted that to make- I don't know what you're talking about.
00:55:56.000 I was thinking we should make wine, and I'm like, you know, the amount of effort and work it would take to make wine, where we could just go to the store and spend $150 on bottles of wine, is like, so out of proportion right now that I do think we're living in like this luxurious society that can't sustain.
00:56:10.000 It just can't.
00:56:11.000 Like, we should be prioritizing the grapes on the property and making the wine.
00:56:14.000 It would be fun.
00:56:15.000 Like this idea of like the farm to table or eat local movement is interesting.
00:56:19.000 The problem is that people go to the grocery store and if the grocery stores don't stock local produce then obviously it becomes hard to eat this stuff.
00:56:26.000 Like there is a challenge to it.
00:56:28.000 I think, you know, When we had more regional food systems, meaning that farmers ship their foods to local grocery stores, we probably had more diversity in our diet, which is interesting.
00:56:38.000 And there was probably more regional cuisine, right?
00:56:41.000 Like, we're talking about, like, stuff that's in West Virginia.
00:56:43.000 If you probably went back and found, like, an old West Virginia cookbook, they used things that were in the area.
00:56:48.000 It was different.
00:56:49.000 And now we have sort of a homogenous culture across the U.S.
00:56:52.000 If you go to any grocery store, you expect to see a certain thing.
00:56:55.000 It's the homogenization of the world, and it's horrifying.
00:56:59.000 Like, I've talked about how I went to the Bahamas, I went to NASA, and I'm like, this is gonna be cool, I'm gonna see some local flavor, and I get off the boat, and it's like Gucci, Hard Rock Cafe, Starbucks, and I'm just like, okay, I got a Starbucks down the street from me, I don't need to come here for this.
00:57:13.000 Maybe that's the intention, maybe that's what they want.
00:57:16.000 But they have this service where you can get shipped exotic fruits, And most people don't even know what these things are.
00:57:22.000 Because you go to the grocery store and there's like seven fruits you can buy.
00:57:25.000 And then sometimes there's like a prickly pear and people are like, ooh, look at this weird one.
00:57:29.000 And it's just like, dude, there's so much crazy stuff going on.
00:57:32.000 We have black cherry trees.
00:57:34.000 The black cherries are in season right now.
00:57:36.000 So there's probably, on one tree, what is there, 200,000 black cherries?
00:57:38.000 It's crazy.
00:57:41.000 I don't even know how to get them. They're just like all the way in the top 40 feet in the air.
00:57:45.000 Yeah, we need like a machine that you latch around the trunk and then it shakes.
00:57:49.000 Yeah, and then they all fall down.
00:57:50.000 Have you seen that video of like a truck that does it with oranges?
00:57:53.000 But I think what you're saying is probably because the idea that things are in season,
00:57:58.000 like you can't get them all the time. And Americans, probably just all modern Western
00:58:01.000 culture, we expect things now and we don't want to have to wait.
00:58:04.000 Like, you can get strawberries in the grocery store all year round.
00:58:08.000 They have a growing season.
00:58:09.000 We just grow them in greenhouses.
00:58:10.000 Now, that's an innovation.
00:58:12.000 On the other hand, what are we missing out on?
00:58:12.000 That's pretty cool.
00:58:14.000 Because we've simplified our minds to only expect to eat strawberries as the only fruit.
00:58:18.000 This is why a lot of the climate change stuff doesn't bother me.
00:58:22.000 When they're like, you shouldn't be getting avocados in the winter.
00:58:25.000 And I'm like, yeah, I agree with that.
00:58:27.000 It's like ridiculous that we grow avocados in Mexico and then we ship them to New York for a bunch of hipsters so they can have their winter avocado toast.
00:58:34.000 Like, just have the fruit and stuff that's available in your region in these times.
00:58:38.000 Now I get it, I get it.
00:58:40.000 In winter, you need to ship food in because they're not growing this stuff.
00:58:44.000 But I just think generally, I am slightly offended by urban liberals who are complaining about climate change while being the primary beneficiaries of the gas guzzling trucks.
00:58:54.000 Global imperialism.
00:58:56.000 Right, right.
00:58:57.000 It's like, dude, it's you!
00:58:58.000 It's not the dude who's got a bunch of chickens in Appalachia who's eating pawpaw.
00:59:02.000 He's not getting pawpaw shipped to him from Mexico.
00:59:04.000 Well, and he's preserving stuff so that in the winter he'll have some type of fruit.
00:59:08.000 Yeah, we made wineberry jam.
00:59:09.000 Exactly.
00:59:10.000 It's great.
00:59:11.000 We saved it.
00:59:11.000 It's still good.
00:59:12.000 And we have mulberry jam, too.
00:59:13.000 Right.
00:59:14.000 It's a cultural difference of having to think, like, I'm going to have to think ahead.
00:59:17.000 I'm going to have to plan what I'm going to eat in the winter so I have something.
00:59:21.000 We're much more of an on-demand society.
00:59:23.000 Now, of course, I benefit from that.
00:59:25.000 I go to the grocery store.
00:59:26.000 Like, there are things that I enjoy in modernity, not having to prep food and farm all summer and things like that.
00:59:31.000 On the other hand, like, as a culture, what did we lose when we wanted the convenience?
00:59:36.000 We lost the sense of appreciation and value you know because when we have a meal we don't appreciate where has that come from you know who picked that from the tree so I think that's why it's nice to grow locally if you can grow vegetables in your own garden because you appreciate it and also the taste is so much better you know when you grow lettuce or potatoes and you cook it it tastes beautiful there's no no harmful chemicals on it from Monsanto or anything it's just purely out of the ground so I think there's uh there's something nice about that appreciating and kind of going back to No, old times when we used to grow our own vegetables and, you know, everybody, if they have a little garden, just grow a few things.
01:00:09.000 I think that's a nice thing.
01:00:10.000 Do you think there's emotions involved with vegetables?
01:00:13.000 Like when you, the way you pick them?
01:00:14.000 Because I know with animals, if you slaughter an animal that's in fear, it'll produce a lot of cortisol.
01:00:19.000 The meat won't be as good.
01:00:20.000 I've heard that.
01:00:21.000 Yeah.
01:00:21.000 I know that if I'm stressed out and I eat food, I have a harder time digesting it because I'm stressed.
01:00:25.000 So is the plant, is a plant also experiencing some sort of stressor and like being frozen and shipped over long distances, held in captivity in a grocery store?
01:00:35.000 Not in a spiritual sense, but right now we've got grapes growing all over the property.
01:00:39.000 They're called frost grapes.
01:00:41.000 And what they say you're supposed to do is you harvest them when they're plumpest and freshest, which I think is coming up in a month or two.
01:00:47.000 You freeze them lightly and then take them out and thaw them.
01:00:51.000 And that causes a chemical reaction which changes them from very tart to very sweet.
01:00:55.000 Yeah, so a lot of people wait, they're called frost grapes, you wait till first frost and then it converts the sugars or something like that.
01:01:01.000 Although, I was watching a video about it and they're like, some people just don't care all that much, the tartness is actually quite pleasant, so maybe just want regular old wild grapes.
01:01:09.000 But it's sort of nice, you have the option to do either one.
01:01:11.000 So less spiritually emotional but more chemically reactive, that's for sure.
01:01:15.000 A chemical reaction occurs.
01:01:17.000 I've just been thinking more and more that, you know, cities are the devil.
01:01:21.000 You know, in a certain sense.
01:01:23.000 I've lived in cities my whole life, then slowly started moving further and further away from them.
01:01:28.000 Then in 2014, got a little, like a five acre little plot in the Redlands in Miami, which was less city, more rural and semi-farm.
01:01:37.000 Like there's a lot of farms there.
01:01:38.000 We only have five acres, but we had chickens.
01:01:40.000 The first time we got a chicken right out of the chicken's butt, I'm like, do I got to do anything to it?
01:01:43.000 Do I just eat it?
01:01:44.000 And then I'm like, did we just eat it?
01:01:46.000 And then we fried up the eggs.
01:01:47.000 We made food with it.
01:01:47.000 They were great.
01:01:48.000 Then, uh, when we were here, when we got away from, uh, Jersey and New York and all that stuff, we had a garden.
01:01:53.000 I wake up in the morning, take two eggs straight from the chicken's butt, you walk right up where the chicken lays, they're still warm, and then you go to the garden, I pick some cherry tomatoes, grab a zucchini, go and chop it all up, fry it up, breakfast made by me.
01:02:07.000 No harmful chemicals.
01:02:08.000 No BS.
01:02:10.000 I think about what's going on in cities.
01:02:12.000 How to feed the people who live there.
01:02:14.000 Glyphosate.
01:02:15.000 Pesticides.
01:02:16.000 All of these really awful chemicals.
01:02:16.000 Atrazine.
01:02:19.000 The fuels that are burned to produce it.
01:02:21.000 All the waste produced by it.
01:02:22.000 And I'm like, that's disgusting.
01:02:24.000 It's not food.
01:02:25.000 These people are eating like brominated flour and other weird chemicals.
01:02:29.000 And I'm like, Cities have become toxic wastelands, where people are consuming fake food, becoming extremely depressed and unhealthy.
01:02:38.000 We have a story, I mean suicide rates are through, let me pull this one up, let's talk about this.
01:02:42.000 Look at this.
01:02:43.000 The Daily Mail reports, suicides hit record high last year when nearly 50,000 Americans took their own lives.
01:02:51.000 CDC report revealed that suicides in the US are at an all-time high.
01:02:54.000 I think a large component of this is, What's- What we see in cities.
01:02:59.000 Obviously, COVID, I think, destroyed a lot of people.
01:03:01.000 The lockdowns and all that stuff.
01:03:03.000 But you come out to the middle of nowhere.
01:03:05.000 And what do you have?
01:03:06.000 Fresh running water.
01:03:07.000 Granted, you don't want to drink wild stuff.
01:03:09.000 You gotta clean and all that stuff.
01:03:11.000 But we have a well.
01:03:12.000 We have a well water with a filtration system.
01:03:14.000 So there's no gunk, there's no weird chemicals, there's no... There's no chlorine.
01:03:18.000 I'm pretty sure we have no chlorine.
01:03:20.000 It's like a multi-stage filter with a UV light to clean it and kill the bacteria.
01:03:26.000 No fluoride added.
01:03:27.000 Just regular old well water.
01:03:28.000 And we have the rivers right down the road.
01:03:31.000 Fresh fruit growing all across the property.
01:03:33.000 It's ridiculous.
01:03:34.000 Every month there's some new kind of fruit to eat.
01:03:36.000 And we didn't even put it there.
01:03:38.000 And you can even eat the leaves.
01:03:39.000 Nobody wants to.
01:03:41.000 But you can!
01:03:42.000 A lot of the- Grape leaves.
01:03:43.000 We got so much grape- Ooh, we could wrap stuff with grape leaves.
01:03:45.000 Yeah, you could wrap them and soak them.
01:03:47.000 Yeah, Chuck was talking about doing that.
01:03:48.000 So we're out here, and it's like a Disney fairy tale.
01:03:52.000 Little animals running about with deer on the front yard- The picturesque mountains in the forefront with the clean air.
01:03:57.000 Yup.
01:03:57.000 You walk out, you look outside, you see clean air, you see mist rising, there's wild turkeys in the front.
01:04:02.000 You could, back in the day, They have, I mentioned this, they have the guns in the kitchen.
01:04:07.000 The muskets.
01:04:08.000 And I asked the guy, like, what's the musket for?
01:04:10.000 And they're like, oh, when they're cooking dinner, they open the back door, shoot a rodent, throw the rodent in the stew.
01:04:15.000 And I'm like, wow.
01:04:17.000 That's how they live.
01:04:18.000 It's like, you don't even need to go hunting.
01:04:19.000 It's like, open the door and you wait, and you're like, there we go, rabbit, bang.
01:04:22.000 So we have wild turkeys in front of the house all the time.
01:04:25.000 We don't do this, but we could literally just capture, kill anyone.
01:04:28.000 We have deer all over the place.
01:04:29.000 There's too many deer, actually.
01:04:31.000 I hope, like, the deer need to be killed.
01:04:34.000 I don't want to be a dick, but there's like 25 of them, and there's poop everywhere, and they're just eating too much.
01:04:41.000 So people go out and they kill them, but you could just eat the deer.
01:04:44.000 It's just like the food is right there.
01:04:45.000 In the cities, they use all those crazy chemicals.
01:04:47.000 People's heads are whacked.
01:04:50.000 They're on SSRIs.
01:04:51.000 They live in these concrete blocks that smell like sour milk.
01:04:53.000 Yeah, that brake dust coming out of the cars.
01:04:54.000 I was gonna say, all the car emissions that they walk through to get from tiny apartment building to the tiny office.
01:04:59.000 24-7.
01:04:59.000 Because it goes into your apartments, too.
01:05:01.000 It's like living in a sewer.
01:05:03.000 Is it like that in London, too?
01:05:04.000 Your firm outside of London?
01:05:05.000 Yeah, but I don't really spend much time there.
01:05:07.000 But it is, I mean, the pollution is really, really bad.
01:05:09.000 But you know, on the flip side, they're trying to push the climate change thing.
01:05:13.000 So they're putting plant pots in the middle of roads to stop drivers going into central London.
01:05:16.000 They're charging people every single day, about $15 just to drive into central London.
01:05:21.000 So that's even delivery drivers, truck drivers.
01:05:23.000 So there's good, good and bad things about that.
01:05:26.000 You know, I think it is a tough life that when people are going from the office, you know, nine to five, they go straight to the house, and they've got a tiny apartment and For a one bedroom apartment in London, it's like $1,200, $1,300.
01:05:37.000 So it's crammed conditions, a bit like New York.
01:05:40.000 So it's not a way for people to live.
01:05:42.000 Like Tim was saying, it's much better.
01:05:44.000 People are happier and healthier if they're living in the countryside.
01:05:47.000 I spend so much time outdoors and it's so much nicer.
01:05:50.000 It's fulfilling.
01:05:50.000 You feel that fresh air and you feel good and you appreciate things.
01:05:54.000 If you grow your own vegetables, you appreciate that taste.
01:05:57.000 You don't think, oh, I can just buy what I want.
01:05:59.000 It's consumption.
01:06:00.000 You actually enjoy life a bit more.
01:06:03.000 Here's a crazy thing.
01:06:03.000 They have a racial breakdown and an age breakdown.
01:06:06.000 It is mostly millennial white people who are committing suicide.
01:06:10.000 Oh my gosh.
01:06:11.000 Multiracial people are very low.
01:06:13.000 I love this.
01:06:14.000 But what you need to understand is that white people are the majority of the population.
01:06:18.000 So percentage is what matters the most.
01:06:21.000 And I think... Okay, this percentage changed.
01:06:25.000 You need to break down the amount of suicides by race, but by percentage of population.
01:06:29.000 So it looks like white people are committing tremendous amounts of suicide, but it's actually fairly comparable.
01:06:34.000 If you look at black or African, they're about 10% of the white population, and that's actually... So it seems statistically average suicide across all racial backgrounds.
01:06:44.000 But then you do notice that from 25 to 64, substantially more suicides, with the highest demographic being 25 to 44, which is millennial into younger Gen X.
01:06:57.000 It's freaky stuff, man.
01:06:59.000 You know, whatever's causing this.
01:07:00.000 People are having a breakdown.
01:07:01.000 I think purpose matters.
01:07:03.000 I think we can look at a lot of the issues that are causing something like this, and they're just directly correlated with cities.
01:07:09.000 No community.
01:07:10.000 No neighbors.
01:07:11.000 No purpose.
01:07:12.000 Living in pollution and garbage.
01:07:14.000 And running back and forth.
01:07:16.000 It must... It feels... I don't know, man.
01:07:19.000 It just feels like the dark side.
01:07:20.000 And they can never get up the ladder you know they're stuck in those jobs for their whole life they're just surviving basically you know paying their bills and it's really tough and what's sad as well most of these people likely have mental health struggles and then you've got Canada that's legalizing euthanasia including for people with mental health so how many more people are going to feel so hopeless that they're going to take their lives you know instead of you know sending all this money to different countries you know another 24 billion to Ukraine you know America should be investing in mental health and let's help these people we shouldn't be you know pushing people to No, feel that they've got no chance in life.
01:07:50.000 Let's actually help them and support them with mental health.
01:07:52.000 I think it was someone was just saying we should reintroduce them reopen mental facilities.
01:07:57.000 Was it Vivek?
01:07:58.000 Was it Vivek?
01:07:58.000 Do you guys remember?
01:07:59.000 It wouldn't be a bad idea.
01:08:01.000 Yeah.
01:08:01.000 Reagan shut them down in the early 80s and that was a big... Put them in jails instead.
01:08:05.000 Yeah.
01:08:06.000 And now we have this mental health crisis that just began like right when that big shutdown happened.
01:08:10.000 So maybe it's time to... But like they were so horrible.
01:08:13.000 So many people suffered so horribly in a lot of those places that that was the justification for shutting them down.
01:08:17.000 But that doesn't mean that we can't do it right or do something.
01:08:21.000 It also opens the door to... you're a political dissident, so the government says, hmm, mentally ill.
01:08:27.000 Yeah, or, yo, you have a medical marijuana card?
01:08:29.000 Well, it's not federally legal, so off to the mental facility with you.
01:08:32.000 And you can't get out.
01:08:33.000 With armed guards, yeah.
01:08:34.000 With regular jails, you'll get a term.
01:08:36.000 And then you get out, maybe you'll get out with good behavior, get out early, but with mental facilities, they determine whether you get out or not.
01:08:43.000 I think a lot of these people are, maybe not a lot, but returning veterans from the war in the Middle East, wars in the Middle East, when you come back and you realize like, wait, there were no weapons of mass destruction, wait, Osama bin Laden, we didn't go into Afghanistan for Osama bin Laden, I thought, I just spent six to eight years of my life willing to kill and seeing people like, And people hate me and look down on me and think that I'm bad for having been in the military.
01:09:08.000 I mean, like, veteran suicide is serious and is a part of it.
01:09:11.000 I think part of it is also social media.
01:09:14.000 I mean, it's something that we see particularly among young people, anywhere from, you know, 15 to 35, you're seeing an increase in anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation.
01:09:27.000 There might be a lot of circumstances but I think ultimately we have bred we have raised young people in a culture of hopelessness and you must be reminded that every day if you're working a job that you don't like in a city where you feel like no one knows you and you go home and you lie in bed and look on your phone for hours and hours and hours And you feel like you're not getting the same amount of likes as someone else, and why aren't you doing more with your life?
01:09:46.000 And that despair is terrible, where I think we need to have a culture that measures success, not by online presence, but in the connections you have in real life.
01:09:56.000 I think if you look at this data, there's a really easy way to, a really easy bit of data to show what's causing this.
01:10:03.000 You can see that males are three times more likely, or three or four times more likely to commit suicide than females.
01:10:11.000 So I think a large component of this is telling men they're evil, they're bad, they're wrong.
01:10:16.000 You know I love there was this article that talked about the glass cliff.
01:10:20.000 It was like Linda Yegarino's appointed to the board of X right when the company's about to implode, this is the glass cliff.
01:10:27.000 And I'm like, man, you got a glass floor, you got a glass ceiling, you got glass walls, you got a glass cliff.
01:10:31.000 Ladies be living in a big glass room.
01:10:33.000 Is that it?
01:10:33.000 Don't throw stones.
01:10:34.000 That's what I was gonna say.
01:10:35.000 People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
01:10:37.000 And so these people, they be doing nothing but throwing stones.
01:10:40.000 And so I'm like, no matter what happens to a woman in the workplace, it is the fault of patriarchy and men.
01:10:46.000 And I'm just like, dude, come on.
01:10:48.000 You can't be like... Elon Musk hired who he thought was the best person for the job.
01:10:52.000 We were very critical of Yacarino.
01:10:53.000 I think that's the name, right?
01:10:55.000 Because she was a World Economic Forum individual.
01:10:58.000 She's not being tossed off the glass cliff.
01:11:00.000 She was given a prestigious position.
01:11:01.000 You give a woman an executive position, well, it's the glass cliff to throw her off the cliff.
01:11:06.000 You don't give it to her, it's the glass ceiling.
01:11:08.000 You give her a mid-tier job, and they say, well, that's the glass floor.
01:11:13.000 Women are thrown out there because they're eye candy.
01:11:15.000 Just spare me, dude.
01:11:16.000 Well, I mean, with the Ocarina, like, them being like, they hire her right as the company was about to go downhill, like, are you guys saying she's not capable of turning it around?
01:11:24.000 Yes.
01:11:25.000 Are you saying that you think she's not qualified for the job she was given?
01:11:28.000 Like, are you sort of showing us what's actually happening here?
01:11:30.000 I think there is such a weird conversation where Women have to be protected at all costs because they can never think that maybe a man would have been better for their position when ultimately we know that genders function differently.
01:11:45.000 I mean it goes right down.
01:11:46.000 You can study newborn babies and see a difference in the way their brains naturally develop.
01:11:50.000 You can't tell me a newborn baby has been socialized at all.
01:11:53.000 We know there are extreme differences and instead of having a society that prepares people to pursue things that fall along those lines, we're saying constantly like, something's oppressing you, something's bad.
01:12:02.000 Actually, you're the problem.
01:12:03.000 Actually, you need to stop the way you are and conform to what we want from you.
01:12:07.000 It's just toxic.
01:12:07.000 I think divorce is another one.
01:12:09.000 I was just watching Soft White Underbelly on YouTube.
01:12:11.000 Highly recommend the one with the divorce attorney that just recently came out a few days ago.
01:12:16.000 And he was saying that like in divorce proceedings, the guy tends to get the raw end of the stick.
01:12:21.000 It's like if the guy cheats on the girl, the guy's trash.
01:12:23.000 He's a piece of shit, you know, junk.
01:12:25.000 If the girl cheats on the guy, the guy probably wasn't doing enough to support her.
01:12:29.000 So she had to go.
01:12:30.000 They're more likely to lose custody of their children.
01:12:33.000 And so to be 18 or 16, I mean, did you, was this around you, this like men are bad?
01:12:38.000 Is that part of why you feel like I don't want to be, or I don't feel right as a guy?
01:12:42.000 So it wasn't like it is now when, you know, the patriarchy is constantly mocked and you saw the Barbie movie that was kind of mocking men.
01:12:49.000 So you know you saw the Barbie movie Mocking Men but I wasn't around then but I had a kind of difficult relationship with my dad he was very masculine he was trying to get me to do all these outdoor things and you know I didn't get on with him so I was trying to reject that so that was part of the reason why I became more feminine and more like a girl and stuff but I think nowadays we're really seeing this division is you know a breakdown of masculinity because it's very hard to find you know just normal masculine guys now right you know because we're having this society that's emasculating men and Again, the Barbie movie.
01:13:17.000 You know, I enjoyed the movie.
01:13:18.000 I thought it was cool.
01:13:19.000 I love, you know, all the colors and the outfits and stuff.
01:13:21.000 But I think it was mocking men and trying to make men look bad and tell women, you know, you don't need a man.
01:13:27.000 You don't need to settle down.
01:13:28.000 And, you know, they even mocked the pregnant Barbie and that.
01:13:30.000 So I think it's kind of teaching kids, you know, or teaching young girls you don't need a man in life.
01:13:35.000 And, you know, it's essential for starting a family, right?
01:13:37.000 And And I think guys are seeing that and thinking like, I'm not needed.
01:13:44.000 If they're telling girls they don't need men and I'm a man, that means I'm not going to be needed.
01:13:47.000 Why am I even here?
01:13:48.000 I have no purpose.
01:13:49.000 And that's why we don't see strong, solid relationships anymore or marriages.
01:13:53.000 You know, a lot of marriages failing or people just hooking up on apps like Tinder or Bumble because they don't see the purpose of it.
01:14:01.000 You know, everything is so fast in modern society.
01:14:03.000 You just go on an app, you find someone new.
01:14:04.000 So they don't build that connection, which I think is really sad.
01:14:07.000 That was another thing we were talking about like, uh, 50 years ago.
01:14:10.000 Your pool, your dating pool was like who you knew and who you were around.
01:14:13.000 Now, even when you're like married or you're in a fully committed family relationship, if you go to check your, your notifications, you see women's faces, like the faces of hundreds of different women.
01:14:23.000 It's just such a, like an erotic mess.
01:14:25.000 I, it's not, it's not natural stimulation.
01:14:28.000 At least it wasn't up to this now.
01:14:29.000 Maybe we have to start considering it.
01:14:30.000 I mean, it's artificial, but it may be coming part of our nature, but it is counterintuitive to the marriage mono, uh, Like monogamy structure.
01:14:38.000 That's something else this divorce attorney was talking about too.
01:14:42.000 Jeez, it's a weird, a weird, but I mean if we don't have kids then the human race will not proceed.
01:14:47.000 And this is why young men are skewing conservative.
01:14:51.000 It's why young men are fans of Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson.
01:14:54.000 Because you've got, finally they're being talked to.
01:14:58.000 They're being explained their value, they're being explained their responsibilities, their opportunities.
01:15:03.000 And the left, this is really really funny, I think it was Vosh.
01:15:06.000 Who tweeted something like, the reason young men are becoming conservative is because the right is talking to them.
01:15:10.000 We need to do this.
01:15:12.000 And the response from all these leftists was, aw, boohoo, poor men, shut up, spare me, blah blah blah.
01:15:17.000 And I'm just sitting here laughing, being like, just keep on ragging, just keep on hating.
01:15:22.000 And more and more guys are gonna be like, screw you, I'm leaving.
01:15:25.000 At first, I was hurt by a girl.
01:15:28.000 It was my fault, a lot of it, in my 20s.
01:15:28.000 I blamed her.
01:15:30.000 So I was happy to watch this division proceed in 2011, 2012, 2013.
01:15:34.000 I'm like, good, she deserves it.
01:15:36.000 All women deserve it.
01:15:37.000 I was so angry.
01:15:38.000 But it's like a snowball, an avalanche rolling down a hill.
01:15:40.000 Once it gets started, it's gone out of control now.
01:15:43.000 I don't know.
01:15:44.000 I mean, I'm sure we can grains of sand and kind of slow the thing down because it's not a literal avalanche, but it feels like this momentum of divisiveness between men and women is Has been picking up steam, and that's concerning.
01:15:57.000 Of course, it's, you know, shit can change really fast with internet.
01:16:00.000 Well, I would think movies like Barbie are sort of accelerating this, right?
01:16:02.000 They're saying men are to blame.
01:16:04.000 I don't know, I thought Barbie was making fun of women.
01:16:06.000 I've never seen it so I can't comment accurately.
01:16:08.000 I'm sorry, I thought it was more mocking men.
01:16:10.000 It was basically teaching women don't settle down with a man,
01:16:13.000 you don't want to get married.
01:16:14.000 And there was two scenes where there was a pregnant Barbie and you know, Will Ferrell was the CEO of Mattel
01:16:19.000 and basically they were mocking the pregnant Barbie like she was a discarded model.
01:16:22.000 So it was teaching, you know, young girls, you know, don't have babies.
01:16:26.000 And there was a scene at the start, you might've seen it in the trailer
01:16:28.000 where these kids were on the beach and they had these baby dolls, they were looking after them.
01:16:32.000 Barbie came along, suddenly they smashed them.
01:16:34.000 So I thought that was almost a subliminal message telling kids don't have babies or, you know,
01:16:38.000 because it's not what we want in society anymore.
01:16:41.000 I mean, I didn't see it, but my view from the trailers and the commentary that I have seen is that
01:16:41.000 So.
01:16:47.000 if the default presentation of the Barbies is this happy-go-lucky world and
01:16:52.000 and Thank you.
01:16:54.000 Then she goes out into the real world and it's not nearly as bad.
01:16:57.000 I think it shows them as airhead, vapid, stupid, lazy, entitled.
01:17:03.000 But I didn't see the movie so I don't know.
01:17:06.000 I got a hot take.
01:17:07.000 I don't think Margot Robbie's that good of an actor.
01:17:10.000 I thought she was good.
01:17:13.000 When I look at her face, I just don't see... Margot, come on the show.
01:17:16.000 I still love you.
01:17:17.000 But she's just popular because she's hot.
01:17:20.000 Maybe I'm wrong.
01:17:21.000 Maybe she was great in the movie.
01:17:22.000 She's been in a lot of stuff.
01:17:23.000 She's a really good actress.
01:17:25.000 Jared Leto in... what's that movie?
01:17:28.000 Harley Quinn.
01:17:29.000 That movie was awful!
01:17:33.000 Dude, one of the worst movies I've ever seen was Birds of Prey.
01:17:37.000 Was she in that too?
01:17:38.000 Yes, and it was just so bad.
01:17:40.000 I saw a couple scenes with her and Ryan, not Ryan Reynolds, Ryan Gosling.
01:17:43.000 I'm actually upset you guys made me remember that movie.
01:17:47.000 Sorry.
01:17:48.000 I hate objectifying other actors because good for her doing what she's doing, but I think it's kind of an example of where our society's at with auto-tune and the hot girl gets the lead because she's hot and not because she's the best actress.
01:17:59.000 Well, they wanted Amy Schumer originally.
01:18:01.000 For what?
01:18:01.000 Harley Quinn?
01:18:02.000 And they missed the mark if they didn't hire her.
01:18:05.000 Amy Schumer is... Lizzo.
01:18:08.000 True.
01:18:08.000 Well, she's got a lot of problems right now.
01:18:09.000 Would have been an issue.
01:18:10.000 I don't know.
01:18:10.000 Maybe Margot was... Yeah, but they didn't know about the problems when they were doing casting.
01:18:13.000 So true.
01:18:13.000 Yeah, it's really funny because they want to do Amy Schumer because they're woke.
01:18:17.000 And then somebody was like, yeah, but there's a limit.
01:18:19.000 You know what I mean?
01:18:21.000 Like... You can't just cast everyone all the time everywhere.
01:18:25.000 Yeah.
01:18:26.000 I don't know.
01:18:27.000 Someone just said that Margot Robbie produced the movie.
01:18:29.000 Is that right?
01:18:29.000 She was a producer?
01:18:30.000 She was, yeah.
01:18:33.000 I don't really care all that much about the Barbie movie.
01:18:35.000 I don't want to see the Barbie movie.
01:18:36.000 What?
01:18:36.000 Tim, I thought you were a huge Barbie fan.
01:18:38.000 Yeah.
01:18:39.000 He was talking about Barbie all the time.
01:18:41.000 How big of a fan of Ryan Gosling are you, 1 to 10?
01:18:44.000 Oh, really?
01:18:44.000 100?
01:18:44.000 You love him? 100?
01:18:48.000 I like Ryan.
01:18:49.000 I think he's awesome.
01:18:50.000 Oh, I think he's one of the best actors on earth.
01:18:53.000 I mean, I guess it depends on what you're what does one represent?
01:18:56.000 Like not a fan at all.
01:18:56.000 And 10 is a big fan.
01:18:58.000 Not a fan at all.
01:18:59.000 But doesn't mean I don't like the guy like you don't anything about him.
01:19:01.000 I don't know.
01:19:02.000 Whatever.
01:19:02.000 He's a dude.
01:19:02.000 It's fine.
01:19:03.000 Yeah, he's doing his thing.
01:19:04.000 Good for him.
01:19:05.000 He was in Blade Runner.
01:19:07.000 He was in A Place Beyond the Pines.
01:19:08.000 That's how he met his wife, Eva Mendez.
01:19:09.000 Oh, I don't know what that is.
01:19:11.000 The notebook, and I cried.
01:19:12.000 Have you seen it?
01:19:13.000 No, I have not.
01:19:13.000 It'll change you.
01:19:14.000 Have you seen the notebook?
01:19:15.000 I know what it is, but no, I haven't seen it, no.
01:19:17.000 It's a fantasy.
01:19:17.000 Mandatory screening after this.
01:19:19.000 I'm going to the bathroom.
01:19:21.000 I love you all.
01:19:22.000 Let's talk about... I want to talk about Sam Harris.
01:19:26.000 Let's get a little bit podcast esoteric.
01:19:28.000 We have this clip, and there's been a whole bunch of clips from Sam Harris that have been going around.
01:19:32.000 For those that aren't familiar, he's a very, very big podcaster, and it appears that he has... I don't know if... I don't think he lost his mind.
01:19:42.000 I think that he embodies the grift perfectly.
01:19:46.000 You've got people who are passionate and dedicated to what they believe.
01:19:49.000 You've got people like Brett Weinstein who are very, very adamant about their beliefs and their expertise.
01:19:53.000 And then you get Sam Harris who just says whatever the most tepid, centrist, neoliberal thing is, even if it makes no sense, even if you know he knows, he's lying about what he's saying.
01:20:03.000 So he has this clip.
01:20:04.000 I'm going to play this clip for you guys.
01:20:06.000 You know, but dial up the, the deadliness of the pathogen, you know, give us something like, you know, airborne Ebola that incubates for a month.
01:20:16.000 You don't, you don't know you have it and you're, you walk around spreading it and it's got, you know, a 75% fatality rate and it's mostly killing kids.
01:20:25.000 No one gets to make that choice anymore.
01:20:27.000 I mean, then literally the, the cops come in and vaccinate you and I would say that all of us would agree to that.
01:20:37.000 The moment, again, that you turn up the lethality on the pathogen, you turn up the effectiveness of the vaccine, you turn down the risk of the vaccine.
01:20:47.000 Give me a truly safe vaccine where there's not even one documented case of vaccine injury, right?
01:20:54.000 So then you just have to be completely crazy to be worried about being vaccinated in that kind of
01:21:01.000 environment, then it's just a no-brainer.
01:21:04.000 Then we just don't tolerate a diversity of opinion because the stakes are too high. It's
01:21:10.000 a full-on emergency. Bodies of kids are being stacked up in parks, right?
01:21:16.000 There's so many of them, we don't know what to do with them.
01:21:18.000 We've got these mobile morgues, and we have a vaccine that actually works, and then we've got RFK Jr.
01:21:23.000 saying, you know, maybe you don't want, you know, maybe you don't want to get the jab on Rogan's podcast, right?
01:21:29.000 So did you hear what he just said about RFK Jr.?
01:21:33.000 He says, imagine a scenario where it's a 75% mortality rate, the vaccine is perfect, everyone knows it's perfect, and children are dying on the street.
01:21:43.000 Now RFK is saying, don't Dude is losing it.
01:21:45.000 No, no, no, no!
01:21:47.000 RFK was talking about now, you made up a fake scenario in your own mind,
01:21:52.000 and then criticized RFK for saying something in your own mind.
01:21:57.000 Dude is losing it.
01:21:59.000 He's completely losing it.
01:22:00.000 This was the bodies in the- like, he could have children's bodies in the basement and I would still vote for him guy,
01:22:05.000 right?
01:22:05.000 Like, I don't really understand how he made his career happen when it's based completely apparently in fiction.
01:22:12.000 I wanna- I wanna read this tweet from Dave Smith.
01:22:13.000 He said, quote, It's just absolutely remarkable.
01:22:15.000 was completely different, then things would be different.
01:22:18.000 Imagine if COVID had a 100% death rate and the vaccine was perfectly safe.
01:22:22.000 RFK looks pretty stupid now.
01:22:24.000 It's just absolutely remarkable.
01:22:27.000 I'll tell you what I think Sam Harris is doing.
01:22:30.000 He just wants to stay on the good side of the machine.
01:22:33.000 He wants to still maintain some kind of academic contrarian personality type, but he is worried about being on the other side of the machine.
01:22:43.000 That's it.
01:22:44.000 So, what he just said made literally no sense.
01:22:47.000 I missed the best minute probably of my whole life.
01:22:49.000 But I also want to point out, too, this whole statement.
01:22:52.000 Let's just say you have airborne Ebola.
01:22:56.000 100% mortality rate or whatever, 30-day incubation, like the worst case scenario!
01:23:01.000 And then RFK Jr.
01:23:02.000 comes out and says, maybe you don't want to get the vaccine, and the police are going into people's homes and forcefully vaccinating them.
01:23:07.000 My response right away is, I don't trust the government.
01:23:12.000 Sam Harris's world is so insane.
01:23:14.000 It's like, he lives in this reality where the government is a big marshmallow man that wants to hug you.
01:23:18.000 Like, bro, the government quite literally is a demon.
01:23:22.000 It's a gigantic demon with fangs trying to drink your blood.
01:23:26.000 Okay?
01:23:27.000 There are some circumstances where that gigantic demon does things for us because there are other gigantic demons trying to drink our blood.
01:23:35.000 You see what I'm saying?
01:23:36.000 And so, one day, the gigantic government demon Stops a war from happening like stops an invasion from coming into your home.
01:23:44.000 You go.
01:23:44.000 Wow.
01:23:44.000 Thank you so much demon See this is why we need the demon then the demon grabs someone cracks him in half and drinks their blood and throws their body like the Sam Harris needs to read a history book because Governments throughout history, in almost every single circumstance, are really, really bad.
01:24:01.000 There's good things that come with government.
01:24:02.000 Small government, I'm talking like small towns and local stuff, tends to work fairly well, but large-scale stuff tends to be very, very demonic.
01:24:09.000 And here's a guy so desperate to stay in the neoliberal space that he makes this, he espouses his sophistry.
01:24:19.000 I wish I'd heard it.
01:24:20.000 Well, I think what's strange is the mental gymnastics he has to go through to create a scenario where the world that he wants is correct, where RFK is saying the wrong thing and doing the wrong thing.
01:24:30.000 So he creates a completely fake scenario.
01:24:34.000 It seems like the worst talking point of all time.
01:24:37.000 I'm sure I say weird stuff, too, on the internet.
01:24:40.000 It seems indicative of the culture he is in where I could give you a completely hypothetical situation that I have made up and then apply it to a real world example that actually has nothing to do with it.
01:24:51.000 I love this response from Tristan Tate.
01:24:53.000 He said, if ifs and buts were candies and nuts.
01:24:59.000 That's an excellent, excellent response to Sam Harris.
01:25:02.000 I think what happened is and the reason why I want to talk about this is like this is the intellectual dark web guy.
01:25:08.000 This big podcast, what was this podcast called?
01:25:10.000 Yeah.
01:25:11.000 You remember what it was called?
01:25:12.000 It was Sam Harris something intelligent something.
01:25:15.000 Yeah.
01:25:15.000 I don't know.
01:25:15.000 I'll look it up.
01:25:16.000 And it was him and he would sit around with Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson and Dave Rubin and they would talk about all this stuff.
01:25:22.000 It was like, oh, very fascinating.
01:25:24.000 And now he's been going out saying- Making sense.
01:25:26.000 Making sense.
01:25:28.000 Criticizing Joe Rogan saying he's captured by his audience.
01:25:31.000 I'm like, bro, that's quite literally you.
01:25:33.000 Joe Rogan just drank Bud Light!
01:25:36.000 Joe Rogan, on two occasions, cracked open a Bud Light and said the whole thing was silly, despite the massive backlash against the company.
01:25:42.000 That's not audience capture.
01:25:43.000 That's Joe Rogan just being him and doing what he wants to do.
01:25:45.000 This guy is willing to say whatever nonsense he can to try and stay in the limelight, not piss off the neoliberal establishment.
01:25:53.000 That's the definition of grifting, I suppose.
01:25:56.000 Well, I'd like to get him in studio at some point.
01:25:58.000 It seems like we have a lot of similar friends.
01:26:01.000 He was just with Modern Wisdom.
01:26:05.000 Right.
01:26:05.000 Yeah, but he won't do it.
01:26:07.000 He said in one interview, I'd love to talk with Jordan or Brett about these things.
01:26:12.000 And then he literally doesn't talk to them.
01:26:14.000 Or I don't think he mentioned Brett, it was like Jordan and Joe or something, I don't know.
01:26:17.000 Brett Weinstein.
01:26:18.000 Yeah, yeah, and then Brett's like, he literally won't talk to us about this, and Brett's an evolutionary biologist.
01:26:23.000 So it's just like, he's, he's, he's, he's, it's plastic, man.
01:26:26.000 Yeah, he knows he's supposed to say, oh, no, of course I'd be willing to talk to them, and it's like, then do it immediately, the entire- He knows his argument's flawed, he wouldn't win an argument, so that's why he won't.
01:26:34.000 If he's allowed to make up his own facts and everyone agreed with him 100%, then he could win.
01:26:39.000 So I don't understand.
01:26:41.000 He can just make up scenarios all day long and he'll be fine, right?
01:26:44.000 That's what we learned from this interview.
01:26:45.000 Yeah.
01:26:47.000 I think that's so weird to make this hypothetical because you don't like RFK Jr.
01:26:52.000 so much that you would say, if the virus was more deadly and also vaccines were better and also there was a massive emergency, like, none of those things happened.
01:27:02.000 Point to one time that has happened where this has been the case.
01:27:05.000 He can't even cite a historical, like, precedent.
01:27:08.000 It doesn't make any sense to me.
01:27:10.000 Is he playing the devil's advocate to the point where he's just become the devil?
01:27:15.000 So I think what happened with him is he has Trump derangement syndrome.
01:27:18.000 That is so weird coming from a guy that's supposed to be an intellectual.
01:27:21.000 I still don't get it.
01:27:22.000 Here's what I think happens.
01:27:24.000 He sees Trump losing and he thinks to himself, oh man, if I'm on the side of Trump, I'm on the wrong side of history.
01:27:32.000 I'm done.
01:27:33.000 I'm going to come out and say whatever I have to say to be this centrist, but still in the good side of the machine personality.
01:27:41.000 That forces him to adopt a bunch of positions that make no sense.
01:27:44.000 I get that from Neil deGrasse Tyson, too.
01:27:46.000 I think he just said there was many genders.
01:27:48.000 He's a scientist and he said that.
01:27:51.000 I want to be diplomatic with these guys, but it's just to the point where if you're going to be dumb, you're not part of the solution.
01:27:56.000 They're not going to be dumb, they're evil.
01:27:58.000 Either one or the other.
01:27:59.000 Either they're plaintively stupid or they're acting maliciously.
01:28:03.000 So, I don't know.
01:28:03.000 This is a scary reality.
01:28:04.000 When you see someone like Neil deGrasse Tyson come out and be like, there are more than two genders!
01:28:08.000 You're like, okay, how much did they pay you?
01:28:09.000 Because, like, come on, dude.
01:28:11.000 You can look up any fifth grade science book and it'll tell you about the, I'm sorry, more than two sexes.
01:28:16.000 You look up any fifth grade biology book, there are two sexes.
01:28:19.000 Oh, so did he say there's more than two genders?
01:28:21.000 No, he said sexes.
01:28:23.000 He said that we've learned now.
01:28:25.000 And then you got that guy, Colin Wright posted this, the guy who said that there are six biological sexes.
01:28:30.000 It's like these people are unwell.
01:28:32.000 Two plus two equals five.
01:28:34.000 Their worldview is shattered.
01:28:36.000 I don't see how they can build a cohesive community if their worldview makes no sense.
01:28:41.000 Will?
01:28:42.000 You know, what I'm thinking about is religion.
01:28:44.000 How do you build a cohesive community around something that cannot be proved?
01:28:48.000 Like, if you tell a kid, 2 plus 2 equals 5, but look, here's 2, and here's 2, if you count them, that's 1, 2, 3, 4.
01:28:56.000 But 2 plus 2 equals 5.
01:28:57.000 The kid will think, okay, I can accept these things, even though I can't prove why or it doesn't make sense, but I will accept that those are both true.
01:29:05.000 And so you could make a community around insanity.
01:29:08.000 Now their logical pathways, their reasoning breaks because now they can't connect dots.
01:29:15.000 Do you think that, I don't want to get too deep into religion, but people that just blindly accept, have faith in things that are unprovable, that they have like broken logic pathways?
01:29:24.000 No.
01:29:24.000 Do you have to break your logic pathway to believe something without proof?
01:29:30.000 No.
01:29:30.000 What do you mean?
01:29:31.000 Well, without evidential proof, why would you ever believe it?
01:29:35.000 So, let's say you stumble across a spattering of chocolate on your floor.
01:29:41.000 And there is a cake on your counter that is destroyed.
01:29:44.000 Something ate your cake and got the chocolate on the floor.
01:29:47.000 The first thing we do is we make an assumption.
01:29:50.000 We form a hypothesis.
01:29:51.000 Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and assume that someone smashed and destroyed the cake.
01:29:55.000 That's apparent by the fact the cake is smashed and destroyed.
01:29:58.000 I'm now going to assume that it was not a human who did it because a human would not flip the cake and the chocolate onto the ground.
01:30:03.000 Hold on!
01:30:04.000 Why would you believe something without proof?
01:30:06.000 Why would you operate under this concept?
01:30:10.000 Without actually having been able to prove it.
01:30:12.000 The only way to lead yourself to prove it is if you operate under the assumption it is potentially true.
01:30:19.000 So now you're sitting here saying, it's going to take me a while to figure out what happened to this cake, but I think it was an animal that did it.
01:30:24.000 Okay, now we assess how many animals we have, and now we have a cat, we have a dog.
01:30:27.000 Likely not going to be the cat.
01:30:28.000 Maybe the cat though.
01:30:29.000 The cat maybe like boop booped it off the counter.
01:30:31.000 Maybe the dog jumped up and got it.
01:30:33.000 We're going to choose a hypothesis and then we're going to pursue it.
01:30:36.000 We are going to operate under an assumption so that we can try and figure out the truth.
01:30:41.000 Now it may turn out to be that both the cat and the dog are covered in chocolate and you're going to have to operate without being able to know for sure.
01:30:48.000 My point here is, that's logic.
01:30:50.000 If you can look at a cake on the ground and flip it over and be like, okay, none of the humans here did this, right?
01:30:56.000 It's possible they did, but unlikely they did, so I'm not going to pursue that course of investigation.
01:31:01.000 That's using logic.
01:31:02.000 Now, if a child can't understand the concepts because they've been told 2 plus 2 equals 5, they look at the cake on the ground, they look at the cake on the counter, they see the smash that's chucked on the floor, and they go, A rabbit broke into my house and got my cake?
01:31:16.000 Oh wow, they'll be more likely to believe... Nonsensical, insane things that you should not be led to believe.
01:31:22.000 You get what I'm saying?
01:31:23.000 Oh yeah.
01:31:24.000 Like, you pointed out pretty well, you say 2 and 2, right?
01:31:27.000 That equals 4.
01:31:28.000 But then these leftists come out and say 2 plus 2 equals 5.
01:31:30.000 But if you take the pencils and lay them out, you go 1, 2, 3, 4.
01:31:33.000 Hey, wait a minute, that's not 5.
01:31:36.000 Now if the kid is like, no, but it is 5!
01:31:38.000 And there's no fifth pen there.
01:31:41.000 It's nonsense.
01:31:41.000 For the record, what they're saying is 2.3 plus 2.3 equals 4.6.
01:31:45.000 When you round it up, that's 5.
01:31:47.000 When you round it up, that's 5.
01:31:48.000 2.3 rounded down is 2.
01:31:50.000 So technically, but generally, but it's not technically right, and it's not even generally right.
01:31:55.000 It's literally false.
01:31:56.000 That's not mathematics either.
01:31:58.000 So I don't, yeah, I don't...
01:31:59.000 It's literally false.
01:32:00.000 They're just trying to manipulate people's ability to formulate complex ideas.
01:32:06.000 Sort of like a Sam Harris argument.
01:32:07.000 If things were slightly different, then the outcome would have been... And then you have RFK saying, don't take the vaccine.
01:32:12.000 It's like, wait, what?
01:32:14.000 In the alternate reality I've made up for myself, I can't believe what RFK Jr.
01:32:19.000 you're a saint, which is based not in reality at all.
01:32:21.000 It's like some angry teenage girl in the shower thinking about like, well, you know, that
01:32:26.000 guy was so mean to me, I bet he said this, ha, he's so dumb.
01:32:29.000 It's like, and then they start to believe that it actually happened.
01:32:31.000 It's the human equivalent of, like, AI-generated images.
01:32:33.000 Like, if I can be like, I want exactly this scenario, and now RFK is wrong.
01:32:37.000 Like, it's so ridiculous.
01:32:40.000 I just don't understand, like, what he was trying to accomplish with this argument.
01:32:43.000 But I think the big picture here with what the left is doing in terms of attacking the ability to reason and logic is that kids are going to grow up, and they're going to be unable to understand the world or solve problems.
01:32:54.000 That's the point.
01:32:55.000 That's why they attack math.
01:32:56.000 I gotta ask you, Ali, because we're about to go to Super Chats, but I think maybe your book ties into this.
01:33:01.000 Can you tell me really kind of briefly, like, what is this book?
01:33:04.000 What's it about and what happened?
01:33:05.000 So, Gender Madness is basically talking about all these issues of kids being confused online.
01:33:10.000 So, you know, kids taking to TikTok for validation and how that algorithm manipulates them.
01:33:15.000 It's also about how schools are, you know, teachers are in some cases transitioning kids without the parents even knowing.
01:33:22.000 And you know, I've got a lot of research in the book about data which actually counters the mainstream narrative.
01:33:27.000 And you know, mainstream narrative says there's no detransitioners, it's a very low rate, everybody's happy, all these kids live happily ever after, right?
01:33:33.000 We know that's not true.
01:33:34.000 It's just like we're talking about, you know, these people, they reject the reality.
01:33:38.000 They want you to reject the logic that, you know, cutting off a girl's breasts is a good thing to do because it's not.
01:33:43.000 But they want us to believe that that is a good thing.
01:33:46.000 So the book covers all these issues.
01:33:48.000 It covers how people can fall victim to this kind of gender ideology and indoctrination.
01:33:54.000 What are the solutions out there?
01:33:56.000 Sweden has reversed their policy.
01:33:58.000 They were the pioneers in gender transitions on kids.
01:34:01.000 They have now stopped doing puberty blockers and hormones on minors.
01:34:05.000 We have the UK that is also passing similar laws.
01:34:07.000 So we see Europe is slightly ahead of the US and the US is currently where it's all happening.
01:34:12.000 There's been an explosion in the last five years.
01:34:14.000 So it's really covering all of these issues and what we can do to speak up for these kids and speak up for parents.
01:34:20.000 So it's out in a couple of days.
01:34:22.000 Let's talk about a lot more of this in the Members Only show.
01:34:25.000 We'll get really in-depth on this stuff.
01:34:26.000 We can get not so family-friendly.
01:34:28.000 But we're going to go to Super Chat.

01:34:36.000 We're going to have the Members Only Uncensored show coming up in about a half an hour.
01:34:40.000 You don't want to miss it.
01:34:41.000 We're going to talk more about these issues of gender ideology.
01:34:44.000 And there are some Some really shocking social media posts from people who have detransitioned that are very, very sad that we will bring up, and I think you guys need to hear this.
01:34:53.000 You need to hear what these young people are saying.
01:34:56.000 They're asking where their parents were to have helped them and prevented this, and we'll save it, but we'll read some more Super Chats.
01:35:02.000 Oh, we'll start reading Super Chats.
01:35:03.000 Alright, I'm not your buddy guy, says...
01:35:05.000 I wanted to get your opinion on the Michigan election integrity issues recently revealed.
01:35:09.000 However, I gotta say this song, Rich Men North of Richmond by Oliver Anthony really hit me deep, and you all need to hear it.
01:35:15.000 Finally should see if you can get Douglas Murray on.
01:35:18.000 I have seen only a little bit about the Michigan election stuff, and I've asked some friends about it.
01:35:24.000 I don't know enough about it as of right now.
01:35:26.000 And the guy singing that song he mentioned is giving one of the performances of a lifetime.
01:35:30.000 You should find the video and listen to it.
01:35:32.000 It's incredible.
01:35:34.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
01:35:35.000 says, Tim, don't you tell me that I'm the only one when you have something to celebrate you don't call your homeboys over so you can cuddle up and kiss?
01:35:44.000 So at 6pm, for those that are confused, I saw a tweet from Tristan Tate that said, straight men cuddle and kiss sometimes in bromances, and then I looked up the story and it had been popping up on Reddit in a lot of these LGBTQ community pages, and they were like, this is totally legit, straight men hug, kiss, and cuddle all the time.
01:36:07.000 Bros always snuggle, and I'm like, No, no, no, they don't.
01:36:11.000 Bros don't snuggle.
01:36:12.000 Like, there's a picture of two men kissing, and it's like, if you're a straight man, sometimes you want to kiss your homie, and I'm like...
01:36:17.000 What?!
01:36:19.000 And apparently, Metro published a story in 2017 where there was a study done that found that straight men, it said, and I think they're just trying to lie to kids.
01:36:26.000 Like, they're trying to trick people into thinking that stuff's normal.
01:36:29.000 Dudes aren't doing this.
01:36:30.000 Like, it's just not happening.
01:36:31.000 It said, when surveyed, most men said that when they're hanging out with their friends, their straight male friends, they will sometimes walk around naked, snuggle with each other, and kiss on the lips.
01:36:44.000 I'm like, dude, those are gay people, and there's no problem with being gay.
01:36:49.000 Just say you're gay.
01:36:50.000 Don't say you're a straight guy.
01:36:51.000 And I'm like, if they surveyed a guy who claimed to be straight, but then also he kissed his male friends on the lips, he's just in the closet, dude.
01:37:00.000 That's all I'll say.
01:37:01.000 He's not straight.
01:37:02.000 But I thought that was funny, so I did a segment on it.
01:37:04.000 That's what Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
01:37:05.000 is referring to.
01:37:07.000 4Brit says, when you start selling your chickens, you should call them cast-brewed chickens.
01:37:12.000 It'll match your cast-brewed coffee.
01:37:13.000 Love you guys.
01:37:14.000 It's the Chicken City strain.
01:37:16.000 We have, um, we have to figure out Roberto, Roberto Jr.' 's children.
01:37:20.000 And, um, we believe he has, he has three, two or three sons.
01:37:24.000 How are you going to decide who gets to be the new king of the castle over there?
01:37:27.000 The new sheriff in town?
01:37:28.000 Yeah, someone is going to become the heir to the Roberto lineage, and it's not always, you know, sometimes... It's not always age-based in our culture.
01:37:37.000 Well, no, I mean, look, there's many stories of the king has two sons, and then one child is chosen over the other, and then the brother is angry.
01:37:44.000 Why wasn't I chosen to be the heir to the throne?
01:37:46.000 Why is my brother?
01:37:47.000 You know, these other roosters are going to have to deal with it.
01:37:49.000 On the next season of Chicken City.
01:37:51.000 Yeah, Roberto the Third.
01:37:52.000 I think maybe an overthrow of the entire Beaks lineage may be in order.
01:37:56.000 I'm bullish on Luke.
01:37:58.000 Luke's got the hair, man.
01:38:00.000 That guy looks like a dog.
01:38:01.000 I'll say it again.
01:38:01.000 Are his feet still weird?
01:38:02.000 Maybe.
01:38:03.000 He's actually pretty nice.
01:38:07.000 Apparently, he'll crawl into your lap and you can pet him and stuff and he's super chill.
01:38:13.000 Yeah.
01:38:14.000 But Luke Gretkowski tweeted about it.
01:38:16.000 Because he's named after Luke.
01:38:18.000 But no, no, the Beaks dynasty will be forever.
01:38:20.000 We are going to have this great history of, you know, generations of the Beaks.
01:38:26.000 Let's hope that it does not devolve into civil war.
01:38:28.000 It won't.
01:38:29.000 So, you know, Roberto, they're all his kids.
01:38:32.000 Like, Roberto, the one rooster, he's got like 80 children.
01:38:36.000 Zoosted up, dude.
01:38:37.000 Yeah, he's just... Well, no, he's got probably like 50, but then he's got a bunch of grandkids, too.
01:38:41.000 Like, man, this dude, he had kids.
01:38:44.000 And he's back!
01:38:45.000 The king has returned.
01:38:45.000 Yeah, but apparently him and Luke don't get along, and they tried to spur each other.
01:38:50.000 Yeah, I think Roberto, he's like battle-hardened now, spending all that time.
01:38:52.000 Well, he's always been.
01:38:53.000 He's always been pretty tough.
01:38:54.000 I think it's because he got Napoleon Complex, because when... they thought he was a girl.
01:38:58.000 And Luke can't be, I can't remember all of, when all the chickens arrived, but he can't be the sheriff because he's not actually a descendant of Roberto Jr., right?
01:39:07.000 Or is he?
01:39:07.000 Well, that's obvious.
01:39:08.000 You know, he's a usurper, but the bigger issue is that he has a domed head.
01:39:11.000 And so if he gets pecked in the head, he'll just die.
01:39:14.000 Yeah, you don't want to make a weak, a weak chicken the king.
01:39:20.000 But we gotta go look.
01:39:22.000 Roberto Jr.' 's kids are all still very, very young.
01:39:24.000 They're only a few weeks, I think.
01:39:27.000 And so we need to figure out who's the boys and who's the girls.
01:39:30.000 What if there aren't any boys?
01:39:31.000 What are you gonna do?
01:39:32.000 No, there aren't.
01:39:32.000 What if there are trans chickens?
01:39:34.000 Well, we thought Roberto was.
01:39:37.000 No, we thought Roberto was.
01:39:39.000 So we bought, I think we got eight baby chicks that were supposed to be chickens.
01:39:43.000 We didn't want a rooster.
01:39:44.000 We just wanted chickens.
01:39:44.000 We wanted just eight.
01:39:46.000 And then two of them died.
01:39:48.000 And then one of them started one day went, and we were like, what the hell was that?
01:39:54.000 And then I'm like, why are that?
01:39:55.000 Why would a hen grunt?
01:39:57.000 And they're called alpha where the alpha hens or something like that, where if there's no male, a female will become like masculine and be basically trans chicken.
01:40:07.000 No, for real.
01:40:07.000 We'll start acting like a rooster.
01:40:09.000 And then people were just like, yo, I think that's just a rooster.
01:40:12.000 And then I'm like, what?
01:40:13.000 And then the success rate of successfully gendering, uh, sexing the baby chicks is like only 9 out of 10, 90%.
01:40:20.000 So we ended up getting a rooster.
01:40:21.000 Then I'm like, well, now we got a rooster.
01:40:23.000 And then he started, you know, doing his thing once he got old enough.
01:40:26.000 And then we had eggs and we incubated them.
01:40:29.000 And, uh, Roberto Jr.
01:40:31.000 and, uh, Maggie and Bernie were the, uh, first three chickens.
01:40:35.000 Aw.
01:40:36.000 Yeah.
01:40:36.000 So Roberto, Roberto Jr.
01:40:38.000 And that was like two years ago?
01:40:40.000 Two years ago.
01:40:41.000 It was almost exactly two years ago.
01:40:43.000 I remember it so well in the front yard.
01:40:45.000 Yeah, I remember when they were in the front yard in the garden.
01:40:48.000 And Roberto Jr.
01:40:49.000 we had in the house in our room in a little cage because he was super tiny.
01:40:54.000 And he'd run around and jump up on the bed and stuff.
01:40:56.000 And we had to clean up poop all the time.
01:40:57.000 It was really awful and disgusting.
01:40:59.000 Oh yeah, he'd tear it up on the bar downstairs too.
01:41:06.000 I think because he was the first of the breeding, there were some issues.
01:41:12.000 He had a messed up foot that was indicative of some kind of malnourishment.
01:41:17.000 And when Roberto Jr.
01:41:18.000 was first crowing, he would pass out.
01:41:21.000 Dude, his crows are the most unique, and I will do it again for imposterity.
01:41:23.000 and just fall hit the ground and we are like something's wrong with him.
01:41:26.000 But what do you do, right? There's not much we can do and so
01:41:29.000 this explains why he probably had a heart attack and died.
01:41:31.000 Dude his crows are the most unique and I will do it again for imposterity. I love you, Junior.
01:41:36.000 You could hear him really struggling.
01:41:41.000 Thanks for that.
01:41:41.000 Let's read some more.
01:41:44.000 Mad love.
01:41:45.000 Alright, Waffle Censuses haven't been notified for the show in three days.
01:41:49.000 It must be election season.
01:41:50.000 That's right!
01:41:51.000 That's why you guys should copy, click share, grab the URL, post it wherever you can, because YouTube doesn't want other people to watch this show.
01:41:59.000 That's right.
01:42:01.000 Yanet Santana says, Hi Oli, glad you came through all the madness.
01:42:05.000 I follow you on X. Ian, move to Cuba.
01:42:07.000 Hi Tim.
01:42:08.000 Hello.
01:42:08.000 Cuba!
01:42:09.000 Cuba?
01:42:10.000 Soy Cubano.
01:42:11.000 You're talking about Cuba?
01:42:13.000 When Mr. Burns says he wants to live in their socialist paradise.
01:42:16.000 And then Fidel's like, you're talking about Cuba?
01:42:20.000 And then he steals the trillion dollar bill.
01:42:22.000 He's like, can I see it?
01:42:23.000 And Mr. Burns is like, I don't know.
01:42:24.000 He's like, okay.
01:42:26.000 And then he goes like, okay, and I give it back.
01:42:28.000 Give what back?
01:42:29.000 The trillion dollar bill.
01:42:32.000 Classic Simpsons, man.
01:42:34.000 What do we got here?
01:42:37.000 Kay Som says Matt Walsh axed Oliver Anthony's Rich Men North of Richmond.
01:42:41.000 I cannot stop listening to him.
01:42:43.000 Gotta check that song out, I guess.
01:42:44.000 Everybody's talking about it.
01:42:45.000 It's been blowing up since this morning.
01:42:46.000 Oh, oh, I think I saw that.
01:42:47.000 It's the guy playing guitar in the wooded area or whatever.
01:42:50.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, I saw that.
01:42:52.000 That was really good.
01:42:52.000 It's an example of what makes great music, in my opinion.
01:42:55.000 There's no auto-tune.
01:42:56.000 It's just a dude.
01:42:57.000 I also love this idea that people are just like, hey, this is a really good song.
01:42:59.000 I've got to tell it to you.
01:43:00.000 Instead of it being a big music company that's saying, we're going to have a radio release, and now everyone's going to hear it.
01:43:05.000 There's something cool about the organic nature of this.
01:43:08.000 Look at this.
01:43:09.000 Barack Tobias Obama says Bidenomics backwards is skim one dib.
01:43:15.000 Skim's definition is to remove or embezzle, and dib means money.
01:43:18.000 Just found that odd.
01:43:20.000 Wow.
01:43:22.000 That proves it!
01:43:23.000 Yep.
01:43:25.000 Dovahkin said, fun fact, when Oprah Winfrey bought her property, she had the road connecting Kihei to Kula shut down.
01:43:34.000 It more than doubled the drive time between the two towns.
01:43:36.000 The locals hate her more than anyone.
01:43:39.000 Well, why would anyone allow her to do that?
01:43:43.000 Look, you know...
01:43:45.000 I just don't know.
01:43:47.000 I just don't know.
01:43:47.000 People being like, we live in a small community and a very wealthy person is shutting our roads down.
01:43:53.000 Shucks.
01:43:54.000 It's like, bro, you got a bad police department, you got a bad mayor's office.
01:43:57.000 You gotta vote them out.
01:43:57.000 You gotta get these people out.
01:43:58.000 I don't know.
01:44:00.000 Grofty has a 20 for Ian.
01:44:02.000 I don't know what it was for, but you know, there you go.
01:44:03.000 Grofty.
01:44:04.000 There you go.
01:44:06.000 94Made said, imagine if someone could manipulate weather and cause disasters like this.
01:44:10.000 But that'd be crazy, huh?
01:44:11.000 Well, we did end up talking about and speculating whether or not China had space lasers.
01:44:15.000 Well, actually, I'm sorry, China does have space lasers.
01:44:17.000 The question is, can those space lasers start fires?
01:44:20.000 Oh, and I looked into it from Lasersafetyfacts.com.
01:44:25.000 Apparently, regular, I guess you would call these consumer-grade lasers, no.
01:44:31.000 The redder the laser, the hotter, so like green lasers are less hot, I think.
01:44:35.000 I'm not an expert, and correct me if I'm wrong, and that they don't go very far.
01:44:38.000 So infrared?
01:44:39.000 If it was infrared lasers, you're talking about lasers you can't see?
01:44:42.000 That's not on the list.
01:44:43.000 But it's only like 30 feet that a red laser can start a fire.
01:44:46.000 Yeah, but you're in consumer grade.
01:44:47.000 Yeah, consumer grade lasers.
01:44:48.000 So these high powered military, who knows if they're even lasers?
01:44:50.000 Google search megawatt laser.
01:44:54.000 I think that's like a psychotically powerful laser.
01:44:57.000 What does it say?
01:44:58.000 Because I think, I think kilowatt lasers are crazy.
01:45:04.000 Yeah, the lasers I was looking at were... Megawatts are when Trump creates them.
01:45:07.000 Megawatts?
01:45:08.000 Mega?
01:45:10.000 Yeah, I'm looking at like 5,000 milliwatt lasers.
01:45:15.000 I don't think that's very much.
01:45:16.000 Yeah, like, I think, I think the kilowatt lasers are the ones that start fires.
01:45:19.000 I'm not sure.
01:45:20.000 Like a megawatt laser would be nuts.
01:45:22.000 So you think if it comes out and someone's like, the cause of this fire was arson, you're gonna feel more like there's credibility?
01:45:28.000 Or you're gonna feel like it's, it's more like- There's no way they would tell us if it was.
01:45:32.000 If the reality was that China could start fires with satellites, the last thing they want is for the US to panic that there's something you're gonna get hit with a laser.
01:45:41.000 All right.
01:45:42.000 I fly mile high, says Tim.
01:45:43.000 I once had a conversation with a resident of mine.
01:45:45.000 Five minutes later, I sit down and see an advertisement for the company on his shirt.
01:45:49.000 I have never heard of the company before, nor looked it up.
01:45:52.000 We live in a simulation.
01:45:54.000 It's procedurally generated.
01:45:56.000 That's why the ads are such.
01:45:58.000 Because the AI isn't that sophisticated.
01:46:00.000 We're all playing some kind of video game.
01:46:01.000 Oh, and I ordered one of those VR treadmill things.
01:46:03.000 What's a VR treadmill?
01:46:05.000 Yeah, it's like, uh, it's a bowl you stand on and strap into, and then you have these special shoes, and when you run, you can't actually move, and you can, like, turn.
01:46:14.000 We gotta get all the haptic stuff now, like gloves and vests, so you can feel yourself getting hit.
01:46:18.000 I'll put together a list.
01:46:19.000 Okay.
01:46:19.000 And then we'll make a video about it or something.
01:46:21.000 Yeah, it's gonna be great.
01:46:21.000 But I got the thing, it's got this thing you strap into, and then when you put the headset on, you can play a video game where you actually run on the treadmill.
01:46:29.000 Can you jump?
01:46:30.000 No.
01:46:31.000 Does the harness hold you?
01:46:32.000 You can't jump.
01:46:33.000 They got super advanced ones coming out.
01:46:35.000 Do they market it for video games or like as an exercise?
01:46:37.000 Video games.
01:46:38.000 Well, both actually.
01:46:39.000 Because like... Do you guys remember Wii Fitness?
01:46:41.000 It would be like, you can be on the Wii and work out.
01:46:43.000 Dude, you wanna lose weight?
01:46:44.000 Play that, um, what is it called?
01:46:46.000 Space Pirate Trainer?
01:46:47.000 On the Oculus.
01:46:47.000 Yeah, that game's awesome.
01:46:48.000 Dude, that game is so much fun.
01:46:51.000 And, uh, for those that aren't familiar, you're basically just standing on the small platform, there's a bunch of little robots that fly around, and you have different types of guns and you're shooting at them, and you can also pull out a shield and, uh, like a lightsaber and whack them.
01:47:03.000 It's all around you.
01:47:04.000 You spin around like 360 doing martial arts.
01:47:06.000 I played that one on the Oculus and then there's one where you're like an assassin or something you're like killing people or whatever but I was in the skate park when I did it and you have to like punch someone who's coming close to you and I punched the wall.
01:47:19.000 You gotta set the boundaries!
01:47:20.000 I didn't do it well so now I've retired from my VR video game days.
01:47:23.000 You punched the wall.
01:47:24.000 Yeah it was like square and then I had to like lift up the glasses and I was like oh man.
01:47:28.000 It did hurt, but it made me feel like I had a lot of street cred.
01:47:30.000 I felt like a true video game person.
01:47:31.000 You draw the boundaries and you... I think I had just messed it up because I'm not very good at it.
01:47:36.000 But that's the thing, with this treadmill thing, you stand on it, you can't go anywhere.
01:47:40.000 It's much safer.
01:47:41.000 So, when you're in it, you can move around.
01:47:43.000 They gotta make one where you can jump.
01:47:44.000 Yeah.
01:47:45.000 And duck, too, if you can, like... Well, you can definitely crouch.
01:47:47.000 Dude, when you can jump and, like, go on your stomach and, like, fly, that's gonna be... I mean, I think there are ones that do that.
01:47:53.000 Jumping's key.
01:47:54.000 Also, can you take wide steps or is it one of the smaller ones where you've got to keep your legs together?
01:47:59.000 I have no idea how big it is.
01:47:59.000 Yeah, there's a new one called the Omni One that has this single arm that connects to a harness and then it spins around.
01:48:06.000 That's not available yet.
01:48:07.000 They're doing this ad campaign where they're like, invest in the company or whatever, but there's other treadmills you can get.
01:48:11.000 Then you're off to a padded room if you're me.
01:48:15.000 Yeah, we can do multiplayer with that.
01:48:17.000 It's gonna be wild.
01:48:18.000 Justin G says, to your point, Tim, I remember when I saw my first total solar eclipse.
01:48:22.000 Total letdown compared to what I expected, thanks to Hollywood and social media.
01:48:27.000 Dude, you ever see those photographs where it's like, there's a- the moon is really, really big, and there's like a person standing there, and you're like, wow, how did they get a picture of the moon so big?
01:48:36.000 They're very, very far away, and there's a telephoto lens, and they zoom in, and it makes the moon look big compared to the backdrop.
01:48:43.000 All of this stuff, man.
01:48:44.000 So much of life is just made to look more magical than it really is.
01:48:49.000 And then you go somewhere, and you're like, oh, that's cool, I guess.
01:48:53.000 You know?
01:48:53.000 The colors are always saturated.
01:48:54.000 You go to Denmark, and you see those photos of, like, in Denmark, those colorful houses.
01:48:59.000 And you go, everything's a bit more dull than that.
01:49:01.000 They brighten the colors.
01:49:02.000 Come here!
01:49:03.000 The candy is covered in salt.
01:49:04.000 It's not delicious.
01:49:05.000 It's rather awful.
01:49:06.000 People sue the fast food chains that use styrofoam to make their burgers look bigger.
01:49:10.000 I mean, everything's an illusion.
01:49:11.000 Oh, wow.
01:49:12.000 There are two big lawsuits with that.
01:49:14.000 What they do with burgers is when they make the burger, first of all, it's like not even
01:49:16.000 a real burger, but they'll cut it, a triangle in the back, and then spread it out.
01:49:20.000 So you can't see the back of the burger.
01:49:22.000 It looks wide.
01:49:23.000 It's such scumbaggery.
01:49:25.000 Dude, anybody who's ever seen a commercial for a Big Mac knows you ain't getting that
01:49:29.000 when you order it.
01:49:30.000 How can they- That's false advertising.
01:49:32.000 Taco Bell!
01:49:33.000 Come on.
01:49:34.000 Ain't no way someone's gonna try and tell me that what I see on the menu is what they're giving me because it's always like- I love Taco Bell, by the way.
01:49:41.000 But it's always smashed, you know?
01:49:42.000 And you're just like, nah, come on.
01:49:44.000 There really was a big class action lawsuit against McDonald's I believe and there might be one against Taco Bell right now of people who are like showing the advertisement and saying like this was not it because there there is a certain amount of manipulation they're allowed to do to make the food look better but they're saying like it's the reading these are really funny because it'll be like it's 50% cheesier than advert or less cheesy than advertise and like you want to be like who is spending the time writing this lawsuit but I mean the consumers aren't happy.
01:50:12.000 Did you see that crazy viral video yesterday on Twitter with that?
01:50:14.000 I think it was a man in a costume.
01:50:16.000 He had this kind of weird neck mask and he was in McDonald's complaining about the fries.
01:50:19.000 Did you see that one?
01:50:20.000 Yeah, I didn't look into it.
01:50:21.000 I think it was fake.
01:50:22.000 There's so many people saying, oh, it was a man in a mask or it was a general woman, but they had this weird mask, almost like Bo Selector, if you ever saw that.
01:50:29.000 It was a comedy show in the UK.
01:50:31.000 Weird, but it was all over the internet.
01:50:33.000 It was actually really funny.
01:50:34.000 But yeah, people have divided whether it's a real person or just someone in a mask, you know, trying to be a Karen for attention to go viral, basically.
01:50:41.000 Everybody in the chat's ragging on Taco Bell.
01:50:43.000 KP says Taco Bell's an awesome laxative.
01:50:46.000 I actually don't have any issues when I eat Taco Bell.
01:50:50.000 I was surprised because I didn't have it for a decade or whatever and then I decided I was, I think I was on like Grubhub or something and Taco Bell popped up and I'm like, I haven't ordered Taco Bell in a long time.
01:51:00.000 Had no problems whatsoever.
01:51:01.000 Actually felt decently well after having it.
01:51:04.000 Had some recently and also, easily well.
01:51:06.000 However, however, Uh, someone said, uh, let's see, simulacra virus as Taco Bell blows.
01:51:13.000 Well, it's certainly not food.
01:51:15.000 I don't know.
01:51:16.000 It tastes great, though.
01:51:17.000 And then Diego Zion says, Taco Bell does not look appetizing ever.
01:51:21.000 WTF.
01:51:22.000 Fair point.
01:51:23.000 And someone else called it dog food.
01:51:23.000 Fair point.
01:51:25.000 Okay, I accept it.
01:51:26.000 But the thing is, Taco Bell pioneered staying open super late.
01:51:31.000 And even now in this area, it's open the latest.
01:51:33.000 So if you want food after, I don't know, your late night podcasting thing, you know, you go to Taco Bell.
01:51:38.000 We also did free refills, so you can hang out there for a long time.
01:51:41.000 And as a skateboarder tradition, after we finished skating, we'd get Taco Bell, and then you'd get Baja Blast.
01:51:47.000 But have you ever, have you seen the meme where it's like, Taco Bell, it's four in the morning, and there's like a Maserati, and then like a 1992 Chevy.
01:51:55.000 The Great Equalizer.
01:51:56.000 The Great Equalizer.
01:51:57.000 Everybody's just trying to live mas.
01:51:59.000 Yo, we went to Taco Bell last weekend, and it was like, I don't remember what time it was, it was like 10 or something, and that's exactly what we saw.
01:52:07.000 There were like two sports cars in the front looking really nice and then regular cars behind and I was like, man, people really just want to live mass.
01:52:13.000 Yeah, they do.
01:52:14.000 And Taco Bell is interesting because they have their like, number one, it's popular among vegans and vegetarians because they have more options.
01:52:22.000 But also they have their cantinas where they're like different restaurants where they can serve alcohol.
01:52:26.000 There's some in like major cities.
01:52:27.000 So as a brand, I actually think they're really interesting.
01:52:31.000 They can't Make you eat there if you don't want to.
01:52:33.000 I've seen how they make the food because there's an Instagrammer who like his account is like Taco Bell prep.
01:52:39.000 It's disgusting.
01:52:40.000 Oh, why?
01:52:41.000 It's so nasty.
01:52:42.000 Like the beans are a bag of powder that they pour into like a vat and then it like it's just like a gel that reconstitutes.
01:52:49.000 When they grab the beef, I'm just like I do not want to eat it.
01:52:52.000 But then we end up at Taco Bell.
01:52:53.000 But the cheese is fine.
01:52:55.000 Is it?
01:52:55.000 Yeah, the cheese is fine.
01:52:57.000 I used to love it in the 90s.
01:52:58.000 I don't like wheat tortillas.
01:53:01.000 Yeah, I'm away from that now.
01:53:02.000 Corn tortillas.
01:53:03.000 And even then, I try to avoid that.
01:53:04.000 You know, if I go... We go to... There's a really, really great Mexican restaurant called Mi De Goyado, which apparently means, like, slitting a man's throat in Spanish.
01:53:13.000 What?
01:53:13.000 Yeah, apparently.
01:53:14.000 But it's amazing, and it's out here in West Virginia.
01:53:17.000 So I always get the fajitas, and I just say, no tortillas.
01:53:19.000 And then it's just, yeah, it's like as healthy as healthy can be.
01:53:22.000 It's chicken, peppers, and onions.
01:53:24.000 You know, how you gonna go wrong with that?
01:53:25.000 I call it real Taco Bell.
01:53:27.000 All right, a green clover says the lasers from China could be from LIDAR mapping bunkers and ideal targets for a first strike.
01:53:35.000 Yep.
01:53:36.000 But China said it was nothing.
01:53:37.000 They said it was nothing to worry about, right?
01:53:39.000 So we should trust them.
01:53:41.000 They're just looking for pollution centers.
01:53:42.000 They said that about COVID, didn't they, when it first came out?
01:53:45.000 They said, oh, it's nothing to worry about.
01:53:46.000 We're containing it.
01:53:46.000 It's fine.
01:53:47.000 And look what happened.
01:53:48.000 So we can't trust their word.
01:53:49.000 Christopher Marr says, Tim, you should make a Rise with Roberto Jr.
01:53:52.000 zombie version with a foot coming out of the ground or Roberto Jr.
01:53:56.000 coffee strong enough to wake the dead.
01:53:58.000 Also rip Roberto Jr.
01:53:59.000 I love that comment because it's like, let's make fun of the fact that he died.
01:54:02.000 Also rip.
01:54:03.000 How about for Halloween, we make a blend called Re-Rise with Roberto Jr.?
01:54:09.000 We'll do only a couple hundred of them, and it'll be like a premium roast, you know, limited edition Halloween blend.
01:54:09.000 He's back.
01:54:18.000 I'll drink it.
01:54:19.000 That'd be cool.
01:54:19.000 That'd be funny.
01:54:21.000 I mean, most brands roll out the pumpkin spice in the fall and you guys would have a Halloween blend.
01:54:25.000 Re-rise with Roberto Jr.
01:54:27.000 and it'll be a zombie foot coming out of a... We're giving him a Viking funeral this Sunday, I think.
01:54:31.000 Oh, I'm gonna miss it.
01:54:32.000 So we have a pond.
01:54:35.000 And so we're going to make a little boat, put reeds on it, place him on it.
01:54:39.000 We're going to tie a rock to a string, tie the end to the little boat and throw it into the middle of the pond so that it anchors it.
01:54:45.000 And then we're going to, you know, throw a little fire on it.
01:54:49.000 Oh.
01:54:49.000 Yeah, give him a little Viking funeral.
01:54:52.000 Yeah, poor little guy.
01:54:52.000 He didn't have a good heart, we don't think.
01:54:54.000 Great rooster.
01:54:54.000 But they're chickens!
01:54:56.000 I mean, in any other world, he probably would have been food.
01:54:58.000 He would have been killed and eaten when he started herding the hens.
01:55:00.000 Well, what they do is they call it giving them to nature.
01:55:03.000 Because you don't want boys.
01:55:05.000 So when you're naturally hatching the eggs, when you get boys, you just take them out of the coop and place them on the ground.
01:55:12.000 And that's it.
01:55:13.000 You walk away.
01:55:15.000 And the little dude just isn't there tomorrow.
01:55:17.000 Well, that's giving them back to nature.
01:55:20.000 We've got, uh, like ten roosters at Cocktown, over at Freedomistan.
01:55:25.000 And I'm like, why do we have these roosters?
01:55:27.000 Let's eat them.
01:55:28.000 They're food.
01:55:29.000 One of, like, they've been fighting, because they don't really, they're not, they don't really, like, the idea of roosters killing each other is not really true, only if there's girls around.
01:55:36.000 So they're mostly fine, but they're not living well, and I'm like, let's just put them in a pressure cooker, man, and then have some rooster stew.
01:55:44.000 Do you need to get them checked for parasites or anything?
01:55:47.000 Uh, I, no, I, I, we've raised them, and I don't think we have to worry about that.
01:55:51.000 They're fed, farm, like, organic, good stuff.
01:55:54.000 But, um, Chris doesn't want to eat them, so I was like, okay, then let's just open the door.
01:55:59.000 Let them go do their thing.
01:56:01.000 You know what I really would love this idea?
01:56:03.000 If we had like 50 roosters.
01:56:05.000 I envision this fox like sneaking up onto the property and like hearing the rooster crow and thinking I'm gonna get me some food.
01:56:12.000 And then he like sees one rooster sitting there looking around you know bobbing its head and the fox is like oh yeah and the fox creeps up and then it jumps for the rooster and then all of a sudden like there's 300 roosters with glowing eyes looking at the fox and the fox is like no!
01:56:25.000 What is this?
01:56:26.000 And then the roosters eat the fox instead?
01:56:27.000 That'd be awesome.
01:56:28.000 Yeah, that'd be so cool.
01:56:30.000 Roosters being like... That'd be a good commercial for Stand Your Grounds.
01:56:33.000 Yeah.
01:56:37.000 In memory of Roberto Jr.
01:56:39.000 All right, we'll grab a couple more Super Chats.
01:56:41.000 What do we got over here?
01:56:43.000 Eric Elman says, Tim, multiple Canada fires not started by satellite lasers.
01:56:47.000 And Tim, Hawaii fires could have been started by satellite laser.
01:56:51.000 So, what I said was the most likely scenario in Hawaii is that someone's cow kicked over a lantern.
01:56:57.000 Alright?
01:56:59.000 The most likely scenario in Canada was there was actually a map showing a bunch of lightning strikes.
01:57:03.000 Now, could there have been, you know, attacks by, yeah, for sure.
01:57:08.000 I'm not, I'm not, like, I'm literally calling it a conspiracy theory and just talking about weapons capabilities.
01:57:13.000 But I gotta, I gotta be honest.
01:57:15.000 I'm willing to bet some lady's cow kicked over a lantern.
01:57:18.000 You guys know that reference, right?
01:57:19.000 Yeah, she's a great Chicago fan.
01:57:21.000 I don't know if that was a unique to Chicago thing and I was like saying that.
01:57:24.000 We all observe Chicago culture in this house.
01:57:26.000 What's her name?
01:57:27.000 We ordered Portillo's today.
01:57:28.000 Oh, cool.
01:57:29.000 Yeah, maybe we should have hot dogs.
01:57:30.000 I went to a Portillo's for the first time over the summer and it was very cool.
01:57:34.000 You want to talk about fast food, okay?
01:57:36.000 Portillo's is the best.
01:57:38.000 Ever.
01:57:39.000 My only question is, do they have green dye in the relish?
01:57:39.000 No question.
01:57:43.000 Because it's very green.
01:57:44.000 No, no, no, no.
01:57:45.000 I'm pretty sure they don't.
01:57:46.000 There's a lot.
01:57:46.000 Yeah, relish, it's just good.
01:57:48.000 It's really good.
01:57:49.000 I think we should have a... Good question though, because I thought that too.
01:57:52.000 Yeah, I think we should have a board game or card game where we like create conspiracy theories because you know
01:57:57.000 you were just Speculating about the lasers. We should be allowed to talk
01:58:00.000 freely volcanic blasts and stuff
01:58:04.000 Like cards against humanity, but instead of I don't know whatever they were doing you make conspiracy like false
01:58:08.000 false flags Oh, that is a good idea for a game like kind of like cards
01:58:12.000 against humanity, but you have different Conspiracy theories and so everyone gets dealt cards, and
01:58:18.000 then so you like a result and a conspiracy It's like the tinfoil hat version.
01:58:22.000 That's a good idea!
01:58:23.000 And then people will, like, there will be three sets of cards.
01:58:28.000 there will be like conspiracy and result, and then there will be like the scandal or something, right?
01:58:35.000 So someone draws a card and it says like, wildfires were started in Canada.
01:58:40.000 And then everyone has to choose two cards explaining what happened.
01:58:45.000 Billy's explosive fart, you know, stuff like that.
01:58:48.000 Well, obviously that isn't it.
01:58:50.000 One of them will be like, cow kicks over a lantern.
01:58:52.000 And then the other one is, you know, causing a massive explosion,
01:58:55.000 which destroys three small towns.
01:58:57.000 And then you, like, play it down, and then people will vote on who they think is the funniest, and then just like that, you know, you win.
01:59:01.000 Yeah.
01:59:02.000 That'd be fun.
01:59:03.000 Alright, you've heard it, who wants to make it?
01:59:04.000 Also, we should probably open source the video game.
01:59:06.000 Love the idea.
01:59:07.000 I think we should create a Discord room, and we'll put the code out in the video game Discord server, people can just make the game.
01:59:13.000 That's a good idea.
01:59:14.000 It's Game Maker, I think?
01:59:15.000 Yeah.
01:59:16.000 Yeah.
01:59:18.000 That would be good.
01:59:20.000 Matthew Draga says, my family just bought a restaurant in Lahaina that used to be a chart house.
01:59:26.000 We were renovating it and now it's gone.
01:59:28.000 I'm not looking for sympathy.
01:59:29.000 Lots of people lost their homes.
01:59:30.000 Pray for Maui.
01:59:30.000 Man, sorry to hear it.
01:59:31.000 Speaking of, Kellen sent us a map on Twitter.
01:59:35.000 You could pull up if you want from Steve Luckner.
01:59:37.000 It's at Luckner, L-O-O-K-N-E-R, and it's a map of all the houses that were destroyed in the fire.
01:59:42.000 All this red stuff.
01:59:43.000 I don't know if it's accurate, but it's devastating to look at.
01:59:46.000 Apparently there's a lot of houses.
01:59:47.000 And it's a lot of coastal stuff.
01:59:49.000 I guess it's that they're all on the coast, and then there's mountain.
01:59:51.000 They can't really get up in the mountain.
01:59:52.000 I don't think so.
01:59:53.000 I'm not your junior, Raymond.
01:59:55.000 That's a very good name, says.
01:59:56.000 Dandelions have medicinal properties in the sap.
01:59:59.000 All parts are edible.
02:00:00.000 Leaves taste a bit like kale.
02:00:02.000 Boil the roots for hours to make soup.
02:00:04.000 Nectar makes a delicious jelly.
02:00:06.000 Bees love them.
02:00:07.000 Dandelions are the chicken of the plant world.
02:00:09.000 I grew up with dandelions being garbage and we're like trying to get rid of them and then I learned out here that they were actually brought here intentionally because they were medicinal and you can look up Appalachian dandelion recipes.
02:00:21.000 They batter and deep fry them and apparently they taste like mushrooms.
02:00:25.000 So actually Ian started it when he mentioned dandelion tea and then we were at I think Mom's Organic and we bought some.
02:00:32.000 We bought a couple different kinds and it was the best tea I've ever had.
02:00:35.000 I was like, I can't remember what it was, I think it was like vanilla dandelion or something.
02:00:39.000 And I was like, this is amazing!
02:00:41.000 And those circular ones?
02:00:42.000 Yeah.
02:00:42.000 Those are so good.
02:00:43.000 So good.
02:00:44.000 Some people use, is it dandelion tea or dandelion, some combination of fruits as a replacement for coffee.
02:00:49.000 They say don't drink the coffee, drink this, it'll give you the energy boost.
02:00:51.000 A very nice tradesman mountain man when I moved to West Virginia told me that.
02:00:54.000 Wow.
02:00:55.000 Yep.
02:00:56.000 All right, let's grab some more.
02:00:57.000 What do you have this?
02:00:58.000 Nina A says, rest easy Roberto.
02:01:00.000 Roberto Jr.
02:01:01.000 Roberto, his dad, is still around.
02:01:03.000 All right.
02:01:05.000 Purple says, give Tim his Viking funeral.
02:01:08.000 I fully intend to have a Viking funeral when I die.
02:01:10.000 And it has been declared as so.
02:01:12.000 So this is in the public record.
02:01:14.000 On the pond?
02:01:15.000 No, wherever legal.
02:01:16.000 It'll be like in Norway with legit Vikings too.
02:01:18.000 That'd be cool.
02:01:19.000 That'd be awesome.
02:01:19.000 But I thought about this when I was younger.
02:01:22.000 It's like, why would you want to be embalmed and put in a box and buried?
02:01:24.000 That sounds horrifying.
02:01:25.000 Nah, put me on a boat, kick me out to sea, and set me on fire.
02:01:28.000 What about being shot into space?
02:01:30.000 I don't know.
02:01:31.000 That's weird.
