Transcript

00:00:04.000 So we got this new Republican Speaker of the House, and the good news is, he says there's insufficient evidence to impeach Joe Biden.
00:00:12.000 And he gave a great speech where he said, look, impeachment requires these things, and though we have evidence of these things, we don't have evidence of those things, so we're not going to be able to impeach him.
00:00:22.000 And I'm seeing a lot of people are kind of angry about it.
00:00:24.000 But, you know, I gotta be honest.
00:00:27.000 I'm actually happy about it.
00:00:28.000 I am now a... I'm pro-Biden, ladies and gentlemen.
00:00:31.000 I want Joe Biden to be the Democratic nominee.
00:00:33.000 I am happy that the Republicans have seen it clearly and understand now that Joe is a great guy and should stay president and he should be the Democrat nominee in 2024.
00:00:46.000 I strongly hope that is the case.
00:00:48.000 Why?
00:00:49.000 Because Trump is leading in five of six swing states and Democrats actually want Joe Biden out.
00:00:55.000 Here's what's funny.
00:00:56.000 When we hear the news that the GOP is saying insufficient evidence, you try pulling up stories.
00:01:02.000 No, no news outlet is running a headline breaking Republicans say no impeachment of Biden.
00:01:06.000 They're not doing it.
00:01:07.000 They're running these passive headlines of like impeachment may be slowing down because the Democrats and the corporate press are like, oh, we needed the Republicans to boot Joe Biden.
00:01:19.000 And now that he's in, So we'll talk about that.
00:01:23.000 A couple other stories, you know, just whatever.
00:01:25.000 Eric Adams got raided by the FBI.
00:01:28.000 You may have heard the story, but his phones have been seized.
00:01:30.000 Something to do with donations to Turkey.

00:02:00.000 Get them while you can, indoctrinate them first.
00:02:02.000 The left is going to come and argue to take away their rights and say they don't have a right to defend themselves and they're going to splatter propaganda on their faces.

00:02:14.000 Aside from crime, it's fun, but also, more importantly, democide.

00:03:32.000 And so, it's going to be very, very beneficial coming into this presidential election cycle.

00:04:03.000 He's probably playing Baldur's Gate 3.
00:04:05.000 He was live streaming about, I think he was live streaming about the underground city or something like that.
00:04:11.000 Well, you know, whatever floats his boat.
00:04:12.000 We got Serge pressing the buttons.
00:04:14.000 Yes, I'm here on Friday.
00:04:16.000 It's just a new one for me, but I'm excited.
00:04:18.000 It's always good to see you, Taylor.
00:04:19.000 Always.
00:04:19.000 Pleasure.
00:04:20.000 Let's do it, Tim.
00:04:20.000 Here's the breaking headline from the Washington Post.
00:04:24.000 Momentum behind impeachment increase slows under new speaker.
00:04:28.000 Now, hold on there a minute.
00:04:30.000 Why aren't they running the major headline of Speaker of the House says no impeachment?
00:04:36.000 They want Joe Biden impeached.
00:04:38.000 They're like, come on, Republicans, you have to walk into this one.
00:04:42.000 So we have this video.
00:04:43.000 Ed Krasenstein, you know me, love him.
00:04:44.000 He tweets out this video.
00:04:45.000 Let's play play the clip for you so you can hear it yourself as to why he's saying no impeachment this time.
00:04:51.000 I mean, let this be an open invitation to President Biden.
00:04:55.000 I know the White House is recording all this.
00:04:57.000 They're watching what we do here.
00:04:58.000 Here's the open invitation.
00:05:00.000 President Biden, Secretary Blinken, any of the Biden family members and associates, or anyone who seeks to clear their name.
00:05:07.000 Anybody involved in this investigation at all, you can come right here.
00:05:10.000 You are welcome here in Congress to our committees.
00:05:14.000 We on the House Judiciary Committee, House Oversight Committee, Weaponization Committee, the Ways and Means Committee, any of them.
00:05:20.000 Pick your committee and we'll bring you in and you can clear your name.
00:05:24.000 Mr. Speaker, we would love to return our full focus to our regular and important work here.
00:05:31.000 But the facts in our sworn oath to defend the Constitution require this inquiry.
00:05:36.000 And I'll close with this, and I'm going to bring up a couple of my colleagues who will share their thoughts as well.
00:05:42.000 But remember that Article 1, Section 2 of the Constitution itself expressly states, That the sole power of impeachment belongs here to this house.
00:05:51.000 And then Article 2, Section 4 says, listen to the language carefully.
00:05:54.000 It's expressly written in the Constitution.
00:05:56.000 This is not political talking points.
00:05:58.000 We're not making this up.
00:05:59.000 It says in Article 2, Section 4, that the president shall be removed from office on impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.
00:06:14.000 My friends, I just listed just a small sample, just the tip of the iceberg of the credible allegations and the mounting evidence that shows that Joseph Biden Has engaged in bribery schemes, pay to play schemes.
00:06:29.000 This is what the evidence shows.
00:06:31.000 And now for the best part, here is the quote from the Speaker of the House.
00:06:35.000 There is insufficient evidence at the moment to initiate formal impeachment proceedings against Joe Biden.
00:06:40.000 So after hearing what he just said, now you have it from the Washington Post as well.
00:06:45.000 You have the tweet from Mike Cernovich.
00:06:46.000 He says, congratulations, everyone.
00:06:48.000 That's his quote.
00:06:49.000 So why?
00:06:51.000 Why the change of pace here?
00:06:54.000 And I think it's fairly obvious.
00:06:56.000 Democrats actually want him impeached and convicted.
00:06:59.000 And the Republicans, like Mike Johnson previously was saying, yes, look what he's done.
00:07:03.000 We have evidence.
00:07:04.000 We have these checks.
00:07:04.000 All of a sudden he's saying there's insufficient evidence to move forward.
00:07:07.000 Yeah, they want Biden to stay.
00:07:09.000 Yeah, it's kind of hilarious that the Washington Post headline is sort of scolding Mike Johnson for not moving forward with the impeachment we all theoretically wanted for a while, but it just goes to show you the DNC absolutely hates Biden.
00:07:23.000 Maybe it's just a 4D chess move.
00:07:24.000 I mean, they know that Biden is the weakest candidate here, and if they can keep him in and allow him to essentially ruin the country for as long as he has and the rest of his election, I think they know what they're doing here.
00:07:36.000 I kind of feel the same way.
00:07:38.000 It does seem like they've got all this stuff out in the open.
00:07:40.000 It's pretty obvious.
00:07:42.000 That he should be impeachable, but he is not.
00:07:46.000 They're not going to impeach him.
00:07:47.000 The Washington Post says it this way.
00:07:49.000 In a closed-door meeting with House GOP moderates this week, he indicated that there is insufficient evidence at the moment to initiate formal impeachment proceedings, according to people who attended the meeting.
00:07:57.000 We'll just go where the evidence goes, and we're not there yet.
00:07:59.000 And then you have, from the Hill, four days ago, Mike Johnson has accused Biden of bribery, now impeachment is in his hands.
00:08:07.000 As he's coming into the speakership, this is what the guy was all about.
00:08:11.000 Now that he's there, what is this?
00:08:14.000 Right?
00:08:14.000 I'm not so convinced, right, Mike Cernovich said, congratulations everybody, but I'm not so convinced it's a bad thing.
00:08:20.000 I stated this in the intro, I am, I am pro-Joe Biden.
00:08:23.000 Let's, let's, let's keep Joe Biden in there.
00:08:26.000 Hey, he should be the Democrat nominee.
00:08:28.000 Stop you.
00:08:29.000 Tim is personally campaigning for Joe Biden right now.
00:08:32.000 Absolutely.
00:08:33.000 Absolutely.
00:08:34.000 I don't understand the argument as to why... I mentioned this before when a lot of people were saying, why aren't they impeaching him now?
00:08:39.000 Why do they keep saying things like this?
00:08:40.000 I was like, maybe they're waiting for an October surprise.
00:08:42.000 Yeah.
00:08:43.000 You want to wait... Look, we're a year away from the election.
00:08:46.000 That's an eternity in an election.
00:08:48.000 I mean, judging by metrics on view counts on videos, right?
00:08:52.000 We're going to get a month out.
00:08:53.000 It's going to be nuts.
00:08:54.000 Everyone's going to be watching, eyes glued to everything.
00:08:56.000 You want to maximize the story.
00:08:58.000 You impeach him right now, the story disappears in three months, and then what?
00:09:01.000 Nothing.
00:09:02.000 I'm assuming the Republicans, I assumed they would move for an inquiry and then impeach him some way down the line.
00:09:10.000 Now I'm thinking they're not going to impeach him at all and I'm all for it.
00:09:13.000 Let him stay.
00:09:14.000 It seems like they're just using him as a shield.
00:09:16.000 Yeah, scapegoat down the line. Well, and if Biden got impeached and Kamala became president,
00:09:21.000 it actually would potentially set her up for a run for the White House permanently. And I don't
00:09:25.000 think anyone wants that, including the DNC. She's historically unpopular. And I think, generally,
00:09:32.000 it looks like the DNC ultimately wants to run Newsom. And so impeaching Joe Biden gets them
00:09:37.000 a half step closer, but it's not perfect.
00:09:39.000 The RNC knows that ultimately Joe Biden is their best bet because he is splitting his own voters in every direction you can see.
00:09:47.000 And so even though the RNC doesn't know who they want to run, it's probably going to be Trump, they know that Biden is the best opposition because he'll avoid debates and the American public doesn't trust or like him.
00:09:58.000 The Swing states are a perfect example of his support right now.
00:10:02.000 Oh, absolutely.
00:10:02.000 They're not looking good.
00:10:03.000 But I just gotta say, like, this statement of insufficient evidence is BS.
00:10:07.000 Everyone knows it.
00:10:08.000 Especially, and if you're a Democrat, you're probably, you're probably operating under the assumption that the Republicans are lying about their view of the evidence, too.
00:10:16.000 Because they just put out, what is it, two different checks?
00:10:19.000 Was it $40,000 and $200,000?
00:10:21.000 Mike Johnson himself claimed there's evidence of bribery for impeachment, and now he's walking it back?
00:10:28.000 This is funny because it's like, it reminds me of the beginning of COVID when it was people on the right being like, wear masks, quick!
00:10:34.000 And Fauci was like, you don't need to be wearing masks!
00:10:36.000 And then like, within a month, Fauci was like, it's best to wear two masks!
00:10:40.000 And then all the conservatives were like, no, you can't make me wear a mask!
00:10:43.000 I'm like, this is a weird game of...
00:10:46.000 Cat and mouse or something.
00:10:47.000 Is the question then, are House Republicans actually doing a disservice to the American people if they know that he's impeachable?
00:10:53.000 Even if it's strategically for the election, it's better to leave Biden in.
00:10:57.000 Are they failing in their own responsibilities by not impeaching him, right?
00:11:02.000 I'd say that's, I mean, that's, yes, they're failing in their responsibilities, but if you want to win an election, you got to do things like this.
00:11:09.000 And clearly, we have lost election after election after election.
00:11:13.000 I mean, you saw Vivek Teran to Ronna McDaniel on the stage.
00:11:16.000 It was beautiful.
00:11:18.000 It was the best debate performance I've ever seen.
00:11:22.000 And, you know, some people said, yeah, but what about Trump?
00:11:24.000 No, no, Trump had his moments.
00:11:26.000 But Vivek, across the board, every step of the way, I would say Trump's key moments like, only Rosie O'Donnell and you'd be in jail, individually as moments, are the best moments of debates, but the sustained performance Vivek had, just ripping the machine to shreds, I think was the best overall.
00:11:42.000 But I was told that Nikki Haley won.
00:11:44.000 Okay.
00:11:45.000 That is true.
00:11:46.000 She won in our hearts and minds, just not in actual reality.
00:11:49.000 She didn't win anywhere for me.
00:11:50.000 No, I'm just kidding.
00:11:50.000 No, I think part of the thing about Trump is that he is a sustained, I can't talk tonight, sustained performance throughout his whole campaign, right?
00:12:00.000 There is a personality.
00:12:01.000 People who go to his rallies really feel affected by them.
00:12:03.000 He's able to draw support that way.
00:12:05.000 And I think you see the charisma that Vivek has, and that is potentially great.
00:12:09.000 The problem here is that the RNC's preferred candidates, like Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, Can't handle it.
00:12:15.000 They aren't performing on this level.
00:12:17.000 And the RNC is not willing to recruit and work with someone who has that level of charisma.
00:12:21.000 I want to give a shout out to our friend Ed Krasenstein over here, a liberal personality on Twitter who said, it's all theater.
00:12:28.000 It's all an attempt to create these bogus headlines of corruption, bribery and Biden crime family.
00:12:33.000 That's right.
00:12:34.000 This is I am outraged.
00:12:36.000 Joe Biden is a good man.
00:12:37.000 He is an American hero.
00:12:40.000 And we should keep him in office to run again.
00:12:44.000 Hey, I'm pro-Biden all the way now.
00:12:46.000 Let's go.
00:12:46.000 Now that we're seeing the swing state polls, we're like, no, Biden, stay!
00:12:49.000 Because they're going to bring in someone else.
00:12:51.000 Look, it can only go up with Newsom.
00:12:53.000 I don't know if Newsom can beat Trump.
00:12:55.000 But, like, Biden leaving, it only goes up.
00:12:58.000 However, I do want to say it would be very satisfying to see Biden both impeached and convicted as the first president to be convicted.
00:13:06.000 You know, I don't know.
00:13:08.000 I'd rather just have Trump be president.
00:13:09.000 There are pros to all sorts of situations.
00:13:10.000 I mean, obviously, I think RFK is like, no, no, leave Biden where he is, because it is perfect for all the independents running this year.
00:13:18.000 You know, Jill Stein just announced she's gonna run with the Green Party.
00:13:20.000 Oh, did she really?
00:13:21.000 She's back.
00:13:22.000 She's back!
00:13:23.000 I mean, that should be a tell of itself that the fact that all of the independents who are coming out ultimately, no matter what the mainstream media tells you, hemorrhage voters away from Biden who can't keep them anyways because they think he's too old and they're not confident in his performance.
00:13:37.000 The best thing he can do for Republicans is stay where he is because he's a roadblock for the DNC.
00:13:44.000 But again, theoretically, if he did all these things wrong, he should be impeached.
00:13:48.000 And so it is interesting.
00:13:50.000 What is the right path forward?
00:13:51.000 Winning.
00:13:53.000 And so it's like, how about we just impeach him after he loses?
00:13:56.000 We let him run, Trump wins, and then we impeach him.
00:14:00.000 Because you can do post-presidential impeachments.
00:14:02.000 That's what they did to Trump.
00:14:03.000 And you can do it.
00:14:04.000 And then we'll criminally charge him and convict him.
00:14:07.000 And he can share a jail cell with his son.
00:14:09.000 And they'll play Scrabble together.
00:14:10.000 It'll be very lovely.
00:14:11.000 It'll be a super fun relationship.
00:14:13.000 They'll love spending time together.
00:14:14.000 They'll get real close.
00:14:15.000 Yeah, after all these years, they'll finally hang out.
00:14:17.000 Come on, man!
00:14:18.000 Uh-uh's not a word!
00:14:19.000 Uh-uh's absolutely a word.
00:14:21.000 It's in the Scrabble Dictionary.
00:14:23.000 I think whether the RNC likes it or not, I think Vivek is going to be the future of the GOP.
00:14:28.000 And they're going to push back on him as hard as they can.
00:14:30.000 I mean, we saw it during the debates, but there's no stopping him at this point.
00:14:33.000 He's got Trump energy and he's young.
00:14:35.000 I think he is, what I said of Vivek the other day, is that he is the right-leaning leader of the millennial generation.
00:14:42.000 That is to say, I am not saying he is a leader of all millennials.
00:14:45.000 I am saying, of the millennials, of the millennials and younger, and even some older people, but I mean, he speaks really, really well for millennials.
00:14:54.000 Of those who are leaning moderate to right, maybe post-liberal or conservative, this guy is on top of all of the issues.
00:15:00.000 I am not saying, for each individual person, He is the best candidate for you and that you would like him.
00:15:06.000 I'm saying he is a wider base across millennials leaning to the right and so he is like the frontrunner for our generation.
00:15:14.000 And I think with a slightly different personality, you know, if he wasn't so willing to be front of stage, he actually would have been an RNC top donor and kingmaker in a lot of ways.
00:15:23.000 He has the finances and he can spot where Certain issues are leaning.
00:15:27.000 I mean, he is good and he's well-versed because he recognized where there was an opportunity for the Republican, for the conservative movement to grow.
00:15:34.000 And if he, again, if he didn't want to be the person in charge, if he wanted a more backstage presence, he would have been the guy that Ron McDaniels goes to and is like, please, please, please, who do you like?
00:15:44.000 Please give us money to support them.
00:15:46.000 And it would have been a position of influence that I ultimately hope there is a young millennial with good American first values Having, but right now Vivek is sort of the leader in this category.
00:15:55.000 I'm kind of leaning towards just banning super PACs and PACs.
00:16:01.000 It's tough because this conversation has come up quite a bit in the past 10 plus years where you have the Citizens United ruling, a question of whether or not you can give unlimited funds to super PACs, what are the rules, and we all know that these politicians are coordinating with their PACs and their super PACs.
00:16:17.000 They're just not formally coordinating.
00:16:18.000 So, someone goes out to dinner.
00:16:20.000 You know, a guy that I met, my neighbor meets a guy, and they talk about what the plan is, and then I tell them my plan, and he tells them the plan, and then everyone enacts the same plan.
00:16:27.000 We get it, we get it.
00:16:29.000 But my view is, right now...
00:16:31.000 A lot of these kingmakers, as you mentioned, you've got people who work in big corporations and they're effectively shadow candidates.
00:16:40.000 They fund someone else to stand in front.
00:16:42.000 The argument for getting rid of super PACs and restricting contributions to any politician is that only the rich would be able to run.
00:16:51.000 And my answer is, I don't care about rich people.
00:16:53.000 Well, it's already like that.
00:16:54.000 You look at all those people that run, they're all hyper-rich, like they're all millionaires.
00:16:57.000 But I don't even care!
00:16:58.000 If you're rich, congratulations!
00:16:59.000 My issue is when some ultra-wealthy dude who works at a major pharmaceutical company says, I don't want to leave my $13 million a year job, so I'll just give $5 million to this PAC to get a guy elected who will work for me.
00:17:14.000 Make them have to do it!
00:17:16.000 Make them have to resign from their positions or hand off the position and then run for their $144,000 a year job.
00:17:22.000 They're not going to want to do it.
00:17:23.000 $174,000?
00:17:23.000 What's the salary?
00:17:23.000 What was it?
00:17:26.000 I think it's $174,000, right?
00:17:27.000 I don't know.
00:17:28.000 Whatever.
00:17:29.000 That's my point.
00:17:30.000 There's a lot of pitfalls there.
00:17:30.000 I don't know.
00:17:32.000 The argument is, you have a right to spend money how you want, if you want to buy commercials, you can.
00:17:36.000 And then people argue, all that'll happen is, billionaires will buy commercials for candidates.
00:17:42.000 And so it's an issue of, yeah, okay, you just don't allow that, but it's almost impossible to restrict, because of free speech.
00:17:48.000 You know, if I want to say, you know, I like this policy, should I be banned from buying ads saying it?
00:17:56.000 It's impossible to actually figure out where the line's going to be in legislating something like this.
00:18:00.000 Yeah, it's really difficult.
00:18:02.000 I think, ultimately, there's no way to divorce American politics from the influence of wealth, and maybe there should be more safeguards in place.
00:18:11.000 I think the thing that I am most interested in is The way that wealth could influence smaller elections, but we actually see more political donors, even at, you know, the elite level, become active at the presidential.
00:18:25.000 I would like to see people who have the money, like, maybe there shouldn't be super PACs, but either way, in the current system that we have, wealthy donors hopefully would be more active on a local and state level and not just only come out every four years.
00:18:37.000 Well, the donor class is always going to exist.
00:18:39.000 There's really nothing you can do to stop the donor class from giving people money.
00:18:43.000 I want to jump to this story from NBC News.
00:18:46.000 I love this.
00:18:47.000 How the GOP muzzled the quiet coalition that fought foreign propaganda.
00:18:52.000 Ooh, that sounds like the GOP's up to no good.
00:18:54.000 What's this all about?
00:18:55.000 The FBI put a pause on briefings with tech companies due to an ongoing lawsuit, adding to a broader breakdown in a system meant to guard against influence operations and to ensure election integrity.
00:19:07.000 I don't buy it for a second.
00:19:09.000 These people are evil as evil can be.
00:19:13.000 But let me read you the opening paragraph.
00:19:15.000 A once robust alliance of federal agencies, tech companies, election officials, and researchers that work together to thwart foreign propaganda and disinformation has fragmented after years of sustained Republican attacks.
00:19:26.000 Man, it just reads like propaganda.
00:19:28.000 Publicans are so mean to the FBI, they just start ruining their lives.
00:19:32.000 So an illegal and unconstitutional conspiracy between intelligence agencies and tech companies to silence the opinions of American citizens has been thwarted.
00:19:44.000 And they're crying about it.
00:19:46.000 You know what's really funny?
00:19:47.000 When these things happen, The one thing you gotta do is look to who gets laid off.
00:19:52.000 What's this?
00:19:53.000 Around the same time that NBC is reporting the fracturing of this government coalition, there's a bunch of layoffs being reported at various digital media outlets.
00:20:02.000 I wonder why that is.
00:20:03.000 How much do you want to bet the federal government is illicitly supplying funding to digital media companies to hire people specifically for the purpose of lying to manipulate the public?
00:20:15.000 Didn't Vice just lay off some more people and then Jubilee completely shut down?
00:20:18.000 Jezebel's gone.
00:20:19.000 Yeah, Jezebel.
00:20:20.000 But that's just a public service, you know, that's good for everyone.
00:20:22.000 No coincidence.
00:20:23.000 Yeah, no coincidence.
00:20:24.000 And they're like, you know what?
00:20:25.000 Our business isn't aligned.
00:20:26.000 And I'm not saying that these companies are funded by the CIA or anything like that, but there are If you do the research, and there's a lot of stories that we've talked about over the years, and stories that I've covered several years ago, you do often see this.
00:20:42.000 There is government programs that provide funding that typically get used for propagandistic efforts.
00:20:47.000 We know that the federal government provides craploads of monies to public radio, which gets... They do this game where it's like NPR doesn't get government funding, and then it turns out that, no, some other organization gets funding, which then provides funding to NPR, so it's circuitous, but we see what you're doing.
00:21:03.000 The CIA would never, never fund something to further push their interests.
00:21:07.000 They've never done that, right?
00:21:08.000 But I do think it's interesting.
00:21:10.000 And that's all I'm saying.
00:21:12.000 I am not saying I have any evidence.
00:21:13.000 Honestly, it's very interesting that whenever you get these stories of, like, government programs ending, there's a bunch of layoffs in the corporate press.
00:21:19.000 Huh.
00:21:20.000 How about that?
00:21:20.000 How about that?
00:21:21.000 So, uh, what's the story about?
00:21:23.000 The tech companies were colluding with the government to suppress the free speech of American citizens in violation of the First Amendment.
00:21:31.000 They got caught.
00:21:32.000 The Republicans are shutting them down, and now they're whinging about it.
00:21:36.000 Do you think people read this first sentence, a once-robust alliance of federal agencies, tech companies, election officials, and researchers, and think, these are the people I want to have in a robust alliance?
00:21:46.000 These are the good guys.
00:21:46.000 Yeah, these are the good ones.
00:21:47.000 This sounds like it really is looking out for me.
00:21:49.000 It's ruining the word integrity.
00:21:50.000 That's true.
00:21:51.000 It means the opposite, right?
00:21:53.000 But I just wonder if the average American looks at this and says, oh, they are trying to pull it over me because people don't trust the government.
00:22:00.000 Some do.
00:22:01.000 Some portions of voters really trust it, but a lot of voters are skeptical of it.
00:22:06.000 And so it makes me think, if you saw these words strung together, you'd be like, this is a good thing.
00:22:09.000 We don't want this once-robust alliance.
00:22:11.000 But the way they write it, they act like it's such a big tragedy.
00:22:14.000 These people are abject evil.
00:22:17.000 I'm sorry, the CCP is evil.
00:22:21.000 I can't speak too much to Vladimir Putin because I don't know enough about Russia, but he appears to do many things that I would describe as self-interested and evil.
00:22:30.000 But the CCP, I think, takes the cake.
00:22:33.000 Russia may be a bit more vague and nebulous in terms of... CCP's bad, though.
00:22:37.000 CCP is just abject evil.
00:22:39.000 We can see the things they do in terms of militaristic expansion, the way they seize property, the way they control the lives of the people who live in China, the videos of people being tortured by police.
00:22:50.000 Yeah, it's not a fun place to live.
00:22:51.000 I'm not saying Russia is, but, you know, they're not as bad as the CCP.
00:22:54.000 Still, I'm not a big fan of Putin.
00:22:56.000 But these intelligence agencies and the things they're doing, this is evil.
00:23:00.000 I'm sorry, they might sit there and think I'm the good guy.
00:23:03.000 No, you're a crackpot evil despot who thinks that your life is better than someone else's and you have a right to dictate what they think and do.
00:23:10.000 You don't.
00:23:11.000 You don't.
00:23:12.000 I'll tell you what my view is.
00:23:12.000 My view is more like, if the American people believe stupid things, they're allowed to believe stupid things.
00:23:17.000 And then the intelligence agencies are like, but, but we have to go fight Putin.
00:23:21.000 And if the American people are doing stupid things, we'll fail.
00:23:23.000 I'm like, that's too bad.
00:23:25.000 A decentralized system is better than a centralized one.
00:23:27.000 And here's why.
00:23:29.000 If it is that 60% of the Americans are so dumb they vote for a dumb policy which causes problems for this country and serious ones, it is better than if you have one crackpot who believes tons of crackpot things and then drives the country into the toilet.
00:23:46.000 What appears to be happening now is this country is no longer operating in a decentralized
00:23:50.000 way.
00:23:51.000 So we are getting hyper centralized, ideologically driven crackpot decisions by the deep state,
00:23:57.000 which is destroying the country.
00:23:59.000 And then in the meantime, they're saying, but it's everyone else who's the problem.
00:24:03.000 Dude, let grandma post her stupid memes on Facebook.
00:24:07.000 Let people be wrong, and let the best ideas win.
00:24:11.000 When you try to control everything, and regulate everything, we, look, there's a great meme Luke posted, Luke Wachowski posted, and it's the private sector from 1950 to today, and the public sector from 1950 to today.
00:24:23.000 And guess what?
00:24:23.000 The private sector, it's like, you know, this gigantic box computer in a warehouse, and then a cell phone.
00:24:29.000 And the public sector, it's everything's the exact same.
00:24:32.000 Nothing improves.
00:24:34.000 What these people do is they're stuck in this stagnant reality where they can't adjust to the changing world, and they think that the solutions are going to be 50-year-old solutions.
00:24:47.000 They think that they have to control the minds of the American people, but this stagnates our ability to solve our own problems.
00:24:52.000 So how about you let grandma post her memes, you shut up, and we'll vote for who we want to vote for?
00:24:57.000 Because we would be infinitely better off if Donald Trump won in 2020 than where we are today, with a crippled economy on the verge of World War III.
00:25:05.000 Hey, y'all lost the Ukraine war!
00:25:08.000 I don't even think Putin would have invaded if Donald Trump was president.
00:25:10.000 Here we are.
00:25:11.000 Next thing that's going to happen is China's going to invade Taiwan, and Joe Biden's going to go, oh, come on, man!
00:25:16.000 And if Donald Trump was president, at the very least, these things would be happening slower.
00:25:20.000 But I also think they probably wouldn't be happening at all.
00:25:23.000 You see the parallels between how sensitive the CCP is about controlling information and about criticism within their own country.
00:25:30.000 And it's almost like America is, I mean, I'd say slowly, but more now, now, fastly shifting to that same direction of you have to censor online, you have to absolutely control grandma's memes online, even if they're inaccurate or if they're accurate.
00:25:43.000 And it's like, America is essentially becoming the exact same thing that the CCP is, trying to control and centralize all this information.
00:25:51.000 And they're just so sensitive.
00:25:52.000 You can't critique the FBI.
00:25:53.000 You can't critique these agencies.
00:25:54.000 And if you do, you're going to get censored.
00:25:57.000 It makes me think about the Twitter files, right?
00:25:59.000 When Twitter files got released, mainstream media was sort of like, we don't want to acknowledge that we all knew this all along.
00:26:04.000 And now we definitely have evidence that there's collusion between tech companies and federal agencies.
00:26:10.000 And instead, later, they're like, How could you guys ruin our awesome relationship that we're actually very proud of?
00:26:18.000 It seems like such a strange world and the American voter is just expected to go along with it, right?
00:26:23.000 I think that's the most insulting part.
00:26:24.000 Communism!
00:26:26.000 They didn't expect Elon Musk to buy Twitter.
00:26:28.000 Oh, I know.
00:26:29.000 It's amazing.
00:26:29.000 It's a fun plot twist.
00:26:31.000 And Vijaya was crying, and I bet she cried a lot.
00:26:34.000 But not because it's like, oh no, an evil man is going to make hate speech.
00:26:38.000 No, because she's like, he's going to find what I said.
00:26:41.000 And that's what happened.
00:26:42.000 And then, you know, here's the crazy thing too.
00:26:44.000 I wish that Elon just dumped all of it.
00:26:48.000 Oh yeah.
00:26:49.000 He didn't.
00:26:50.000 It was search.
00:26:50.000 It was select.
00:26:51.000 And there's reasons for it.
00:26:52.000 I mean, there's going to be stuff in there about passwords.
00:26:54.000 There's going to be stuff in there about financials.
00:26:57.000 That's too bad.
00:26:58.000 I really wish he was just like, I bought Twitter and I'm going to publish everything.
00:27:04.000 Their entire servers are now open to the public.
00:27:05.000 Have fun.
00:27:06.000 Well, Vivek, on Luke Radowski's podcast after the debate – debate, yeah, if I can speak today – he laid out almost a good five-year plan about basically releasing Twitter files, but for all social media agencies, and just really exposing how deep all of this goes and how deep the CIA and the FBI actually meddle into it.
00:27:26.000 Vivek's basically going up on stage and being like, anyone who's paying attention to what's going on, I have your answers.
00:27:32.000 The problem is, to win votes, you probably have to... Like, there's a reason why these politicians behave the way they do.
00:27:40.000 Because Vivek going up there and saying, listen, this is a thing that's happening, a lot of people are going to be like, what's he talking about?
00:27:45.000 And then you're going to get Ron DeSantis or Nikki Haley saying some, you know, blathering about some mindless platitudes, and it just sounds good.
00:27:52.000 I think there is a very serious division between those on Twitter and those who are not on Twitter in America.
00:27:58.000 And it is weird.
00:27:59.000 I mean, news moves much faster on Twitter and there's information that circulates that becomes fact.
00:28:04.000 Not saying it isn't fact, but, you know, becomes more publicly known.
00:28:08.000 And then you'll get voters who don't use Twitter or who are just only really on Instagram, maybe check Facebook once in a while.
00:28:13.000 And I honestly applaud those people, right?
00:28:15.000 They're probably just living their lives, having a good time.
00:28:17.000 On the other hand, they are not aware and maybe they would feel the urgency.
00:28:22.000 But they aren't moving as rapidly as everyone else.
00:28:25.000 It's like painful to watch every day, but you have to.
00:28:28.000 Otherwise, if you miss a week, then you miss so much.
00:28:30.000 But some people can't.
00:28:31.000 They have other things to do.
00:28:32.000 You know the meme of the two guys on the bus, and one guy's looking at the dreary rocks, and the other guy's looking at the valley and the sun?
00:28:40.000 And the guy looking at the sun is smiling, and the guy looking at the cliff is sad.
00:28:43.000 Someone posted that.
00:28:44.000 I don't want to drag the wrong account, but it was an account I follow.
00:28:48.000 And the guy looking at the dreary cliffside, it said people who read the news, or people who watch the news.
00:28:53.000 And then the people smiling, it said people who don't watch the news.
00:28:56.000 And I was like, the problem with that is that it's technically the other way around.
00:29:01.000 A lot of people are like, man, the news is so depressing though.
00:29:04.000 Yeah, but here's the thing.
00:29:05.000 What it should be is, if you want to do that, the guy who's watching the news is sad, but he's alive, and the guy who's not watching the news has a bunch of needles in his back, has a guy stealing money out of his back pocket, his kids are being dragged away by a creepo, and he's just like, I have no idea what's going on and I don't care and it makes me happy.
00:29:22.000 It's like, let the world collapse all around you, let your children be indoctrinated and groomed, your money be taken to blow up kids, to get injected full of crazy whatever drugs a doctor, you know, is claiming you gotta get, and that's when you don't know what's going on in the world.
00:29:37.000 You don't pay attention, you and your family suffer, and the future generations suffer.
00:29:42.000 Those are the same people that, you know, say, oh, as long as it doesn't affect me doing X or this, you know, if I get, as long as I can get a beer at the end of the day, then, uh, you know, it doesn't worry me.
00:29:51.000 It worries you very quickly when things start hitting the fan as they are right now.
00:29:56.000 Yeah.
00:29:56.000 Yeah.
00:29:57.000 I think, sorry, are you gonna say something?
00:29:58.000 Oh, I was just gonna say, Tim, we had, uh, I think, um, Genocide Losing My Mind reached, was there a year anniversary for that a couple days ago?
00:30:05.000 I was reading a comment and someone was like, Anyone back here a year later thinking, like, wow, they knew ahead of time.
00:30:11.000 Crazy, because, like, it was before the Ukraine thing.
00:30:14.000 I mean, 80% of that song was written 20 years ago.
00:30:18.000 True, but it was just kind of funny how we had put that video out and, like, the bridge is just, like...
00:30:24.000 Mostly peaceful drone strike.
00:30:28.000 The world is ending, here's why it's a good thing.
00:30:29.000 Yeah, we're making fun of the media and then they're doing exactly what we joked.
00:30:33.000 Thank you for the plot ideas.
00:30:36.000 Nobody beats the Babylon Bee.
00:30:38.000 They wrote that article and it said woke activist and skinhead try arguing but end up agreeing on everything and then someone was like Babylon Bee strikes again and there's an article saying like why are neo-nazis joining pro-Palestinian protests?
00:30:51.000 Speaking of that Ryan Long and Danny Polashuk video where it has like the hardcore racist guy and someone who's like in BLM.
00:30:58.000 Every opinion is exactly aligned.
00:31:00.000 It's so great.
00:31:02.000 Welcome to the modern era, man.
00:31:03.000 What a crazy time to be alive.
00:31:05.000 It is a crazy time to be alive.
00:31:07.000 And I think that's the thing that I love about people who don't really engage with the news is like, They've got enough on their plate.
00:31:14.000 They can probably tell you everything that's going on in their hometown, in their office.
00:31:17.000 They know everyone's birthday because their brain is not occupied with trying to keep up with everything.
00:31:21.000 I think it's important to be engaged and be aware.
00:31:24.000 On the other hand, I'm sure people who are obsessively following the news miss all kinds of things and they're personalized.
00:31:29.000 You have to have a balance of these things.
00:31:31.000 Let's jump to this story from the American Survey Center.
00:31:34.000 Looks like it's an American Enterprise Institute.
00:31:37.000 Generation Z and the transformation of American adolescence.
00:31:40.000 How Gen Z's formative experiences shape its politics, priorities, and future.
00:31:44.000 And I need only throw it to Matthew Iglesias so we can give you the breakdown of one of the most important things they found.
00:31:51.000 Lo and behold, my friends.
00:31:54.000 Gen Z support for same-sex marriage drops from 2021 to 2023.
00:32:00.000 In 2021, Gen Z 80% supported same-sex marriage.
00:32:05.000 Today, it is 69% lower than Millennials.
00:32:08.000 Higher than Gen X and higher than Boomers, but lower than Millennials.
00:32:12.000 Now that's really, really interesting.
00:32:14.000 Millennials' approval for same-sex marriage went up.
00:32:17.000 Generation X went up, and boomers went up, and Gen Z went down.
00:32:22.000 So, what Matthew Iglesias says is that it's probably a fluke.
00:32:26.000 However, he goes on to say, I do think we now have a good amount of evidence that Zoomers are gonna be more conservative than Millennials, but this particular finding is just really fishy.
00:32:37.000 Sure, that may be, but the data shows it.
00:32:39.000 And we have that right now.
00:32:42.000 But we can see that there's, interestingly, I'll tell you exactly why this is happening.
00:32:46.000 Take a look at this.
00:32:47.000 Gen Z's unique teen experiences.
00:32:49.000 Percentage of Americans who report participating in or experiencing the following in their teen years.
00:32:54.000 Gen Z. Regularly attended religious services.
00:32:57.000 Gen X, 64.
00:32:57.000 52%.
00:32:57.000 Millennials, 58.
00:32:58.000 Boomers, 71.
00:33:01.000 Gen Z is down in religious experiences.
00:33:04.000 Had a part-time job, 58%.
00:33:07.000 Millennials, 70.
00:33:08.000 Gen X, 79.
00:33:09.000 Boomers, 82.
00:33:11.000 Had a boyfriend or girlfriend, 56%.
00:33:14.000 Once again, Millennials, 69, 76, 78.
00:33:17.000 Drank alcohol or smoked pot or cigarettes occasionally.
00:33:20.000 Gen Z, absolutely not smoking and drinking.
00:33:23.000 And then felt lonely or isolated.
00:33:27.000 Millennials, 57.
00:33:28.000 Generation X, 44.
00:33:30.000 Boomers, 36.
00:33:32.000 You want to know why it is that Gen Z probably had a huge pushback against same-sex marriage in the past two years?
00:33:40.000 It's laid out exactly right here.
00:33:42.000 They are lonely, they are isolated, they don't have significant others, and they're feeling like this weird, neo-woke, whatever you want to call it, world, this cultural world, is causing them relationship problems they don't see in the older generations.
00:33:56.000 So interestingly, Gen Z looks to Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers, and they're probably thinking, how come they were able to do it?
00:34:02.000 What's going on today is bullish, and it sucks!
00:34:06.000 And then the old generation, who has it, are like, we should be more accepting and progressive, causing problems for the young people.
00:34:13.000 I also think, outside of all of this, the biggest and most important component here is, liberals don't have kids.
00:34:21.000 And 20 years ago, when Gen Z was being created in passionate lovemaking, More conservatives had kids than liberals, and that means there are more Gen Z conservatives than liberals.
00:34:32.000 Well, and conservatives weren't killing their kids at mass rallies like liberals do.
00:34:36.000 But that's what I mean.
00:34:37.000 Liberals not only don't have kids, they abort their kids.
00:34:40.000 They're now getting into practices which can result in the sterilization of their kids.
00:34:45.000 Conservatives are still having less kids for sure.
00:34:48.000 But I tell people when they say, oh, indoctrination, it doesn't matter.
00:34:52.000 It doesn't matter because two reasons.
00:34:54.000 One, More conservative kids, no matter what, means more conservative future.
00:35:01.000 No matter what.
00:35:02.000 There's only so much indoctrinating can do, and it can convince people, it can change people, but it can't be as pronounced as literal biological reality of human beings who are created in conservative spaces.
00:35:15.000 So, like, the indoctrination needs to take place in areas where the left has control or is taking control.
00:35:20.000 But conservatives are pushing back in the culture war, which means they're losing.
00:35:23.000 But more importantly, One of the most important things outside of biological reality is the economic reality.
00:35:31.000 Even the child of a leftist family is now wondering why it is they can't find a boyfriend or girlfriend, they can't find a job, and they feel so lonely.
00:35:38.000 And they're looking around them and saying, everything we have is worse than what it used to be.
00:35:43.000 And so you're going to get people who are going to keep saying, return.
00:35:45.000 How about the V, you know what I mean?
00:35:47.000 I love this chart because it just tells you the baby boomers were out living life and then we restricted lockdown and plugged in Gen Z. I mean every generation here got progressively more online and Gen Z was the first generation to live through a lockdown.
00:36:03.000 No, but these experiences, the culture, the community are really valuable things.
00:36:07.000 They shape who people are.
00:36:08.000 And so the idea that Gen Z is worse off is because they are actually isolated, right?
00:36:13.000 They are unhappy.
00:36:15.000 And so they're looking around and saying, we talked about this once, the fact that Gen Z, especially on TikTok, they're obsessively trying on different fashion trends from decades before.
00:36:24.000 And they're saying, We wanted what you guys had.
00:36:27.000 We're trying to find what this is.
00:36:29.000 They want the baby boomer life where they can go out without their cell phone and go get, you know, drunk in the woods with their teenage friends or whatever kids did because they can't do these things because their life is perpetually online and they have no social community.
00:36:41.000 When you see how cancerous the dating pools are nowadays too.
00:36:44.000 Oh, it's insane.
00:36:45.000 This not had a boyfriend or girlfriend.
00:36:47.000 I'm sorry, but baby boomers didn't have the situationship.
00:36:49.000 You know what I mean?
00:36:50.000 Like they actually did something about it.
00:36:52.000 I have the answer for Gen Z. Listen, if you are wondering, go to church.
00:36:57.000 It's crazy.
00:36:58.000 I went to church when I was a kid, stopped going around 12, never went again.
00:37:01.000 But I'm telling you, it's not about just like some faith in God or anything.
00:37:06.000 It is about being part of a community that looks out for each other.
00:37:10.000 And if you don't want to do that, that's fine.
00:37:12.000 You need to find a community and build one up.
00:37:16.000 See, the issue is for the boomers, 71% were going to religious services.
00:37:20.000 So, of course, they were able to have a boyfriend or girlfriend.
00:37:25.000 Of course, they did not feel as lonely or isolated.
00:37:28.000 Surprisingly, they drank and smoked way more.
00:37:31.000 And this is pot, or alcohol, or cigarettes.
00:37:34.000 So they're probably all smoking cigarettes, to be fair.
00:37:36.000 But the reality is, when you look at this chart, Religious, regularly attending religious services means they are constantly in a social environment.
00:37:47.000 And Gen Z?
00:37:49.000 Less likely to do so.
00:37:50.000 It was crazy.
00:37:50.000 I saw this video.
00:37:52.000 It went viral like a year ago of this moderately attractive, like, 24-year-old woman talking about how she was basically an incel.
00:37:59.000 She stayed at home all day, she had no boyfriend, and she posted things on the internet.
00:38:03.000 And I'm like, that's weird.
00:38:04.000 Like, I can understand that for a 24-year-old guy who does not know how to do these things, but I was, like, surprised to learn, man, even for young women, they're experiencing many of these similar things because it's not about whether you're a man or a woman for the most part, it's whether or not you know how to socialize or you are a terminally online person.
00:38:21.000 It's almost like skewing gender roles is a bad thing for dating.
00:38:25.000 It's almost like women are supposed to be women and men are supposed to be men, and we have a mutually beneficial relationship, and when you start to skew that, it makes people more lonely.
00:38:34.000 I mean, no man is going to go hang out with another man that was a woman, and you're not going to seek that exact same relationship.
00:38:40.000 I mean, some of you might, but it doesn't work out.
00:38:42.000 I think it progresses into marriage too, right?
00:38:44.000 I mean, as soon as we sent women to the workforce, we saw a complete collapse in their more traditional roles.
00:38:49.000 Like, volunteering went down.
00:38:51.000 This is typically something women manage in the home.
00:38:53.000 It's typically women who organize the social calendar.
00:38:56.000 And so if you have two working people who are obsessed all the time plugged into their laptop job, The idea that there's community that they foster among themselves and among their children just completely goes away.
00:39:07.000 People don't realize how important the gender roles were for society.
00:39:11.000 They think it's just something that happened to oppressed women.
00:39:13.000 Take a look at this one.
00:39:14.000 Gen Z adults spent less time with friends as teenagers.
00:39:17.000 This is crazy to me.
00:39:19.000 Gen X, 60% said during most or all of my teen years they hung out with friends.
00:39:24.000 29% said during some of their teen years and 11% said not at all.
00:39:28.000 Only 40% of Gen Z says during most or all of their teen years they regularly hung out with friends.
00:39:35.000 That's crazy.
00:39:37.000 If someone asked me, during all of my teen years, all I did was regularly hang out with my friends.
00:39:44.000 Yo, there were points in my life when I was like 14, I wouldn't go home.
00:39:49.000 I would stay over at my friend's house all night and we'd play N64 like the four of us.
00:39:54.000 I had friends, we were in a band together.
00:39:55.000 Then I started skateboarding.
00:39:56.000 My friend group got bigger.
00:39:58.000 All we would do is go out and skateboard all the time.
00:40:00.000 And then when I stopped going to high school after a couple months, all we did was go out every single day and skateboard.
00:40:05.000 It is crazy to me to think that there were kids in Gen Z that literally were not hanging out with friends.
00:40:12.000 But think about the effect of COVID, right?
00:40:15.000 The internet and COVID.
00:40:16.000 There was literally years that high schoolers went from being like, like, I know people who were freshmen in high school the year lockdown happened, right?
00:40:24.000 Then for the next basically two years... But is that Gen Z?
00:40:27.000 Yeah, they'd be Gen Z. Yeah.
00:40:28.000 And so they wouldn't be in school.
00:40:30.000 I mean, this is true of a lot of people.
00:40:31.000 And if you're not, I mean, this is true in a lot of situations.
00:40:34.000 You have to start making friends too in order to maintain friendship.
00:40:37.000 So if they never got that introduction, especially during this age where socializing is actually something the brain desperately needs to practice, then you are... It's more challenging to make friends, it gets more comfortable to stay online and talk on anonymous, you know, internet forums, whatever else.
00:40:52.000 The internet is good in a lot of ways, but ultimately I think a lot of people have been using it to avoid practicing normal social skills that baby boomers just did because that was how we operated in society.
00:41:05.000 Take a look at this.
00:41:05.000 This is crazy.
00:41:07.000 So, uh, influence on parental education.
00:41:09.000 Kids who had two parents were more likely, substantially more likely, to take private art or music lessons, play in a competitive sport, regularly attend religious services, and substantially less likely to drink alcohol, smoke pot, or cigarettes occasionally.
00:41:22.000 Unsurprising that two-parent homes are better.
00:41:25.000 Now, With no degree.
00:41:27.000 That's college degree, which is interesting.
00:41:28.000 Two parents with no degree was less likely than single parents to play a competitive sport.
00:41:33.000 I think that would make sense.
00:41:35.000 Single parent probably says, I'm gonna drop my kid off at soccer practice so I can go take care of business and then come back later.
00:41:39.000 But still regularly attended religious services.
00:41:41.000 Still less likely to drink and smoke pot.
00:41:44.000 Still more likely to take private art or music lessons.
00:41:47.000 Single parent across the board seems to have it the worst.
00:41:52.000 And I think that's increasing.
00:41:54.000 There was a viral post, it's probably fake, but it was like a woman saying she was seeking a sperm
00:41:59.000 donor.
00:41:59.000 And I think I had a video of this earlier.
00:42:01.000 There's a black market sperm donation thing happening on Facebook, where women are like,
00:42:06.000 I'm trying to get pregnant, so I need a donor.
00:42:08.000 And it's just like, it's the weirdest thing.
00:42:12.000 This is what's what what has evolved of procreation.
00:42:15.000 I seriously think we're going towards pod babies because women are like, I'm going to keep my there's a movie about it.
00:42:20.000 I forgot what it's called, but it's like a woman wants to have a kid, but she's a careerist.
00:42:24.000 So she ends up getting a pod where the baby grows in a thing and they put in the closet.
00:42:27.000 Which is a metaphor for motherhood there, right?
00:42:30.000 She's gonna have it happen somewhere where she's not actually having to deal with it at all.
00:42:32.000 Well, you bring it to work, and then you put it in the closet.
00:42:34.000 But it's like, it's kind of a bad ending anyway.
00:42:37.000 But I think that's definitely where we're going.
00:42:38.000 One of the big trends now is that women are seeking unvaccinated sperm only.
00:42:43.000 But in one of those posts, the woman was like, I want to, you know, I want a man to come and donate in person, the natural way, and then leave, and I'll take care of the baby on my own.
00:42:53.000 This means that baby has only a mom.
00:42:56.000 This is a recipe for disaster for society.
00:42:58.000 Target sells insemination kits now.
00:43:00.000 What?!
00:43:02.000 Yes, breaking news from me on air!
00:43:05.000 They sell it next to like all of the like sexual care items, you know, tampons or whatever else and condoms.
00:43:10.000 Since when?
00:43:11.000 I don't know since when, I just noticed it a couple- Men don't know about these things, I guess.
00:43:14.000 Next to condoms, it seems counterproductive.
00:43:15.000 Cause it's all like, the aisles are near each other.
00:43:17.000 I'm not gonna talk about my shopping habits, but you know, like, the thing is, if you're trying to buy any kind of care item for women, they'll put them next to, like, whatever.
00:43:24.000 It's saying, you don't need men for this.
00:43:27.000 This is not something you need.
00:43:28.000 I mean, theoretically, it could be an ode to the same-sex community, right?
00:43:32.000 They're saying, young lesbian couple, we have something you are looking for.
00:43:36.000 How empowering.
00:43:36.000 You don't need to get it from Jeff Bezos.
00:43:38.000 Holy crap.
00:43:39.000 That, on the Target website, at-home insemination set.
00:43:42.000 Yeah.
00:43:44.000 And they've got a, they've, oh man, there's a picture of a woman holding some, you know, with the thing.
00:43:51.000 On Target.
00:43:52.000 On Target!
00:43:53.000 I can't, I can't show this image on YouTube.
00:43:58.000 Guys, don't worry.
00:44:00.000 Carter looks it up, he's like, wow.
00:44:01.000 Oh my god, I gotta see this.
00:44:04.000 I would, I would display it on screen if I was allowed to.
00:44:11.000 I think having children is great, but I think- Oh no!
00:44:15.000 Oh my god!
00:44:16.000 He was on it way too much.
00:44:17.000 Such a Friday show.
00:44:19.000 Are you serious?
00:44:20.000 I'm impr- Oh no, there's- Oh my god.
00:44:24.000 There's a photo of the woman you- of like- There's a- like a- a how to do it.
00:44:29.000 You guys have looked at this way more than I have.
00:44:31.000 It's on Target's website!
00:44:32.000 This is concerning.
00:44:33.000 I just saw the box in the store.
00:44:35.000 Oh, there's a how-to!
00:44:36.000 Good!
00:44:38.000 One of the photos shows a woman's legs on the bed with a hand coming down with it, and it's full, and WOW!
00:44:47.000 It won't be full for long.
00:44:49.000 That video where the scientist is walking through the room, there's all the babies in the pods, we're almost there.
00:44:55.000 They grew that goat or whatever, that lamb in the bag.
00:44:59.000 Right, so we are getting really close to being able to grow life in bags.
00:45:03.000 I'm sorry, we can already do it.
00:45:04.000 The question is, will the government allow people to grow humans?
00:45:09.000 In that movie where they grow babies in the pods, they passively... You know why the movie was bad?
00:45:16.000 Spoiler alerts, everybody.
00:45:17.000 I'm sorry.
00:45:17.000 The movie was bad because they did not explore the ramifications of pod babies.
00:45:21.000 It was just about people who had a pod baby.
00:45:23.000 The issue is, at one point in the movie, they're like, um, my child was born through your services.
00:45:28.000 He doesn't dream.
00:45:30.000 And they never answer what this is about and I'm just like, perhaps it has no soul or something like that.
00:45:36.000 I don't know.
00:45:37.000 But is that sort of what they're saying, right?
00:45:39.000 People who are trying to outsource having to carry children are also not actually that interested in the children that they create.
00:45:46.000 They don't care if they can't dream.
00:45:47.000 They might raise it as a red flag, but ultimately it's about themselves.
00:45:50.000 It's almost like a trophy.
00:45:52.000 That's how, I mean, I feel like childbearing in general is going, especially when you have, like, the same-sex couples just buying kids now.
00:45:58.000 It almost just seems like a trophy at this point.
00:46:00.000 And they're less caring about, you know, having a mom and a dad in a traditional family.
00:46:04.000 Sorry, we have to ignore that muscled-ass table.
00:46:08.000 It looked like a COVID test of some kind, and it was like, all of a sudden, it was like... It's like a jelly... You know those things they use to put the jelly in the jelly donuts?
00:46:15.000 Yeah.
00:46:16.000 I hate it here.
00:46:17.000 This is gross.
00:46:17.000 Jelly Donuts forever ruined.
00:46:19.000 Next up, Target selling sperm too.
00:46:21.000 Hey, we are talking about the struggles of Gen Z and how they want to have families and why their policies are changing and you mention Target selling at-home insemination kits.
00:46:29.000 But isn't that weird that Target is like- We men did not bring this up.
00:46:32.000 It's weird to me that Target would be like, well, let's just embrace the fact that we actually don't care if children have fathers present.
00:46:39.000 We're just trying to see that you can have a child and we don't really care what happens.
00:46:44.000 I think, you know, your family planning...
00:46:48.000 Business is your own, but I think ultimately we would like a culture where it wasn't just widely accepted that we expect the family unit to be broken.
00:46:57.000 I'm calling it now.
00:46:58.000 At all like these pride rallies and stuff, you're going to start seeing target insemination kits being given out.
00:47:02.000 You're going to see it in a few years.
00:47:03.000 It does seem like a logical next step.
00:47:05.000 No, but I mean, this is the other thing.
00:47:08.000 You know, way- I think in like 2012 Pew Research released a study saying that the children of same-sex couples ultimately are not as- they don't thrive the way children of heterosexual couples do.
00:47:19.000 And this always makes people mad, right?
00:47:21.000 Because they're like, how dare you question the same-sex community?
00:47:24.000 But ultimately you can't live in a universe where you acknowledge that Same-sex parents are not the same as heterosexual parents, especially when we know fatherlessness is one of the main reasons that children struggle with, you know, like women are more likely to experience depregnancy if their father's not home, men are more likely to be incarcerated if their father's not in the home.
00:47:45.000 Well, the violent rates especially, too.
00:47:48.000 Children tend to be significantly more violent if they're raised in a single-person household with just a mother.
00:47:52.000 Yeah.
00:47:53.000 There's no coincidence.
00:47:54.000 I mean, there was that first grader who brought his mom's gun to school and shot his teacher.
00:47:58.000 Oh, yeah.
00:47:59.000 He's raised by a single parent.
00:48:00.000 It's not to blame her for anything.
00:48:01.000 Well, a single mother specifically, right?
00:48:03.000 So my question when we were talking about this on the Culture War podcast was, are we not tracking for the detrimental effects on single father families?
00:48:03.000 Yes.
00:48:13.000 So I'm wondering if... Children raised by single fathers do better than single mothers.
00:48:18.000 But better by what metrics?
00:48:19.000 So what we find is in education and less likely to commit crime, less likely to do drugs, are we checking mental health and social well-being along with that?
00:48:28.000 Because I would wonder this based on just like a general biased view of women tend to be more focused on social issues, men tend to be... Women are subjective, men are objective.
00:48:39.000 So When you have a mom and a dad, the dad is the disciplinarian or he's the tough guy, he's the leader, but the mom is the nurturing and the caring and the social.
00:48:48.000 So my question would be, would we be able to track over large populations that if a child is raised only by a father, they're less likely to be emotive, artistic, creative, but more likely to be disciplined and, you know, not doing drugs and stuff like that.
00:49:05.000 I don't know.
00:49:06.000 Seems like it would check out.
00:49:07.000 But I'm saying, like, we don't actually have studies that track these things because we are concerned as a society with, are they committing crimes and going to jail because we have to pay for them.
00:49:14.000 If someone's like, I'm into math and not literature, it's like, okay, we don't really care.
00:49:19.000 You're allowed.
00:49:20.000 So that's why we say, you know, single father families do better than single mother.
00:49:24.000 But then I think for the holistic human experience, without in either capacity is going to be bad for us.
00:49:30.000 Yeah, I think you need both, and I think that's ideal, right?
00:49:33.000 Traditional family W. It's just, it's good.
00:49:37.000 You don't need two of each.
00:49:38.000 I mean, I have heard that, and I don't want to say this with so much confidence, but I had read once that having, like, children whose moms stay at home with their young read earlier.
00:49:46.000 Like, I've read that there are benefits to that, but you're right.
00:49:49.000 Ultimately, are they, you know, having children as children and are they going to jail is sort of something we're measuring more intensely because it has an effect on the taxpayer.
00:49:59.000 Hey, men!
00:50:00.000 This is really interesting right here.
00:50:02.000 Nearly half of white Gen Z women are liberal, but that is the headline I would not use.
00:50:08.000 Percentage of white Americans who are liberal, the majority of white Gen Z are conservative.
00:50:14.000 The majority of white millennials are conservative.
00:50:18.000 The majority of white Gen X and boomers, the majority across the board for white people in this country, they're conservative.
00:50:24.000 That's really interesting.
00:50:26.000 So, Gen Z, only 28% of Gen Z males identify as liberal.
00:50:32.000 46% of Gen Z women identify as liberal.
00:50:35.000 I wonder if they're saying, like, liberal within, like, the confines of the traditional liberal conservative.
00:50:40.000 Or if they're saying, like, oh, I don't want to call myself liberal because I consider myself leftist.
00:50:43.000 I wonder if that's part of it.
00:50:44.000 I don't know how much that would actually sway the information.
00:50:47.000 Maybe.
00:50:48.000 You'd have to go into the Crosstabs, look at the questions.
00:50:50.000 For sure, for sure.
00:50:51.000 But that is a good question.
00:50:53.000 Gen Z and Millennials were less trusting of political leaders growing up.
00:50:53.000 Oh, I love this.
00:50:56.000 Nice.
00:50:56.000 And still to this day.
00:50:57.000 Nice.
00:50:58.000 Good work.
00:50:58.000 Look at that.
00:50:59.000 Millennials and Gen Z equally based on whether or not we should trust politicians.
00:50:59.000 Good work.
00:51:03.000 Yeah, I saw that.
00:51:04.000 It needs to go lower.
00:51:05.000 It needs to go lower for sure.
00:51:07.000 Sweet, sweet Silent Generation.
00:51:08.000 There's like three.
00:51:09.000 Yeah, look at them.
00:51:09.000 They're like, I just believe everybody.
00:51:11.000 They had no access to the information that we have now.
00:51:13.000 This is the problem with the Silent Generation watching their MSNBC.
00:51:16.000 They're like, but Joe Biden said it's true, so it is.
00:51:19.000 And he would not lie.
00:51:20.000 He is the president of the United States.
00:51:23.000 Video games and online gaming.
00:51:23.000 This is really fascinating.
00:51:26.000 Seven in ten Gen Z men played video games in the past week.
00:51:29.000 I played video games literally like three hours ago.
00:51:31.000 I played video games right before we came on this podcast.
00:51:33.000 Oh, that's right.
00:51:33.000 Literally ten seconds.
00:51:34.000 See, that was work.
00:51:36.000 Because you were playing an entertaining show called Gaming Mates.
00:51:38.000 Fair enough, we were streaming.
00:51:39.000 What were you playing?
00:51:41.000 I was just Mario Kart.
00:51:42.000 Oh, Mario Kart.
00:51:43.000 I was playing Baldur's Gate 3.
00:51:45.000 Yeah, I've beaten the game like 47 times already, but there's just so many different stories and pathways you
00:51:45.000 Nice.
00:51:50.000 can take.
00:51:50.000 Look at this, Gen Z 71% played video games.
00:51:54.000 But even more women play.
00:51:55.000 Yeah, but they're playing Candy Crush.
00:51:57.000 I mean, even if they're playing Sims 2, they are online.
00:52:00.000 That's true.
00:52:01.000 That's true.
00:52:02.000 They're doing whatever they are.
00:52:04.000 They're avoiding all social interaction at a higher level.
00:52:07.000 It looks like, look at this graph compared to the graph of loneliness in Gen Z amongst men too, because men are now going to video games for their social outlet.
00:52:15.000 I gotta play video games with my friends.
00:52:18.000 Gen Z, listen.
00:52:19.000 Gen Z men.
00:52:21.000 If 71% of Gen Z men are playing video games and 41% of Gen Z women are playing video games, that means that right now, outside, there is a disproportionate amount of females Two men.
00:52:32.000 That means it's almost two to one.
00:52:34.000 Two to one for every two Gen Z women, there's one guy not playing a video game.
00:52:40.000 Well, there's your opportunity.
00:52:41.000 Go get them, Tigers.
00:52:43.000 Maybe at work, though.
00:52:44.000 Yeah.
00:52:45.000 That's fair.
00:52:45.000 The ones with the part-time jobs.
00:52:47.000 I think the challenge, too, is if you take a look back at the other metric, Uh, these Gen Z men, they're like, look, you got 72% of Gen Z men are not liberal, and 46% of Gen Z women are, of white Americans.
00:53:04.000 And so they're probably meeting women and the women are like, are you into insert insane psychotic woke thing?
00:53:09.000 And they're like, no, thanks.
00:53:10.000 Have a nice day.
00:53:11.000 I'm not interested.
00:53:12.000 This is another reason why they're probably like, I am sick of wokeness, I am sick of the left.
00:53:16.000 Y'all, everybody's crazy.
00:53:17.000 Dude, that's why you see this, like, this new thing about passport bros.
00:53:20.000 You know, leaving the country is because of this.
00:53:21.000 It's because they can't stand it.
00:53:22.000 I know that from personal experience, it's like you can't... Passport bros, dude.
00:53:25.000 It's reality.
00:53:26.000 It means that you leave and go to, like, say, Cambodia or Thailand or Japan, for instance, to go and find your wife because you can't find anyone.
00:53:33.000 I mean, yeah.
00:53:34.000 Back in the day, we called them mail-ordered brides and you got them from Eastern Europe.
00:53:37.000 They still exist.
00:53:38.000 I will tell you this right now, though.
00:53:40.000 Gen Z women are gay.
00:53:42.000 But hold on.
00:53:42.000 Gentlemen, gentlemen.
00:53:42.000 they are they say that majority or they definitely the majority claim to be I
00:53:46.000 mean I'm at that literally the study was right here one in three Gen Z when I
00:53:50.000 know if I as LGBT that's they wonder why the dating pool is absolutely right it's
00:53:54.000 so but hold on gentlemen gentlemen if women are playing video games and that
00:53:59.000 means outside it's nearly two to one for every you know it's not necessarily that
00:54:03.000 they're it's that they played a video game the past week I get it, I get it.
00:54:06.000 But my point is, if a third of Gen Z women are LGBT, that means, for these dudes, there should be tons of ladies out there, and, you know, a great opportunity for you.
00:54:16.000 Yeah.
00:54:17.000 You just have to go out and do something about it.
00:54:19.000 I mean, this is the thing.
00:54:19.000 Yeah, that's really it.
00:54:20.000 This is the issue, right?
00:54:21.000 So, the thing about baby boomers is that they lived in a more formal culture, right?
00:54:26.000 You didn't have, I'm gonna text you on an app and then maybe we'll hook up a couple times and then we'll leave and we don't know what we're doing, whatever else.
00:54:33.000 There was more procedure in what you're doing and I think that was an open conversation in society.
00:54:38.000 It's not to say that the baby boomers were perfect, it's just that this was, this is a social norm.
00:54:43.000 That we have let go and I think that makes it harder.
00:54:46.000 I think a lot of young men don't know where to start and especially.
00:54:51.000 You know, in the day and age of Me Too, a lot of men are afraid to say, like, well, I didn't know how to approach her, so I just didn't because I didn't want to be a creep.
00:54:58.000 I didn't want to seem weird.
00:54:59.000 And so we have to reinstate avenues of pursuing women that exist in a way that everyone is like, yes, this is a good way to do it, because otherwise you were stuck between men who want to do something who feel like they can't because, you know, whatever could happen, and then men who do something about it in a really sketchy, shady way that leaves women dissatisfied.
00:55:17.000 Right, because there's still a group of People that do approach no matter what, but they're typically the creepier kind.
00:55:23.000 I gotta say, just back to the original metric we pulled up, that Gen Z supports same-sex marriage less than millennials, and it's going down.
00:55:34.000 People need to understand what that's going to mean in 10 years.
00:55:38.000 In 10 years when Gen Z are in their 30s, a large portion of economic power is going to be in the hands of people who are increasingly rejecting same-sex marriage.
00:55:49.000 This could mean within like a generation or two, you get the overturning of Oberfell.
00:55:56.000 It does not matter, or I should say it matters very little, that you convince someone of your ideas.
00:56:03.000 It matters that young people are growing up with the ideas and then eventually take over the economy.
00:56:09.000 See, a lot of people seem to think that a lot of what goes on in politics is we're in a constant battle of trying to convince someone to agree or disagree and there's people in the middle being like, well I just don't know!
00:56:20.000 Nah, the reality is, how many young people grew up in an environment where they firmly believe, based on their worldview, a thing is more or less likely to be correct.
00:56:29.000 And so this is what's happening.
00:56:31.000 For whatever reason, Gen Z has rapidly rejected same-sex marriage.
00:56:35.000 Gen Z's gonna have kids.
00:56:37.000 If this trend is among them, what's the trend gonna be among Gen Alpha?
00:56:40.000 And what comes after Alpha?
00:56:41.000 I don't know.
00:56:42.000 It doesn't even matter, you know?
00:56:44.000 You're all conservatives.
00:56:46.000 But here's what's fascinating.
00:56:47.000 It was 2018 when we saw that Gen Z was slightly more conservative in certain areas, and now it's being replicated years later in different ways.
00:56:56.000 I'm telling you, man, it's going to get... I can't see the liberals on the left winning the culture war in the long run.
00:57:03.000 It's funny because I've been saying it, and now we've got more data aligning to my view of what's going to happen.
00:57:10.000 If winning generational support is a long-term game, do you think that the left got too confident that they pushed the envelope too far?
00:57:18.000 Initially they said, oh, just don't go to church and maybe, you know, let, let, you know, people marry each other.
00:57:23.000 And now they're like, and also erase gender.
00:57:25.000 And that was like one step too far.
00:57:26.000 I think, I think the gender is really what's the whole gender confusion and everything that they've been pushing so hard down everybody's throats.
00:57:32.000 I think that's what's going to tip the scales in the long run.
00:57:34.000 I think in general.
00:57:36.000 Life sucks for Gen Z. Mm-hmm.
00:57:38.000 Yeah, and it's not so much that it's You know, I made a video talking about how it's entirely possible to succeed.
00:57:45.000 But it doesn't... Life is not always going to be easier for you.
00:57:48.000 A lot of people look at boomers and like, they had it so easy.
00:57:50.000 I don't know.
00:57:50.000 I should have it easy.
00:57:51.000 You should go start from scratch in the woods.
00:57:53.000 You ever watch that Ancient Technologies channel?
00:57:55.000 Learn to build a mud hut and survive off nothing.
00:57:58.000 There's a lot of great things that are handed to you, so it is what it is.
00:58:01.000 Not everybody's going to be rich.
00:58:02.000 But I do think Gen Z is struggling with depression.
00:58:05.000 They're struggling with, like we already saw, loneliness.
00:58:09.000 isolation, and they're going to blame the structures that were created by the generations before them,
00:58:14.000 but interestingly, they're going to want back what the boomers had, which is kind of crazy.
00:58:20.000 Yeah. What was the percentage of boomer women who identified as LGBT?
00:58:25.000 Oh, it's non-existent. Three percent. Three!
00:58:29.000 Hey, things are looking up, guys.
00:58:30.000 Things are looking up.
00:58:31.000 How much of this is Gen Z women just saying that because they think they need to fit in?
00:58:35.000 Yeah, a lot of it.
00:58:36.000 Even so, though, that may be a reason why the dudes are so pissed and they're like, yeah, we don't want this because that's lowering our dating pool by like 70%.
00:58:48.000 I think dudes want wives.
00:58:49.000 They do.
00:58:50.000 Well, it's almost like it's in our inherent nature to seek the opposite sex.
00:58:54.000 It's like literally how we're hardwired and now that the dating pool is so skewed and so messed up, men don't have anywhere to go.
00:59:01.000 And that is ultimately going to build frustration until it hits a breaking point.
00:59:04.000 And I think these graphs pretty much show that.
00:59:06.000 Take a look at this one.
00:59:07.000 Most Gen Z men say they are not feminists.
00:59:09.000 Nice.
00:59:09.000 Good.
00:59:10.000 Yeah, interestingly, Gen Z males and Gen X males are comparable.
00:59:14.000 Guess what, ladies and gentlemen?
00:59:16.000 Which generation created Gen Z?
00:59:19.000 Gen X. Gen X did, yeah.
00:59:20.000 So, I can't tell you why Gen X created a whole bunch of feminist babies, uh, female ones, but the dudes are comparable to their dads.
00:59:28.000 Isn't that crazy?
00:59:28.000 Sorry, you go.
00:59:30.000 I was going to say, it's probably the shift in the workforce of women becoming the boss girls.
00:59:35.000 That's probably the shift with feminism.
00:59:36.000 I think that's part of it.
00:59:37.000 Also, every generation of women, like the majority, identify as feminists.
00:59:42.000 And so they think they're doing the right thing.
00:59:43.000 They think they're doing what their moms want them to do.
00:59:45.000 Most of them don't even know what feminism means.
00:59:47.000 Here's the funniest thing.
00:59:48.000 Gen Z women are most likely to report being treated disrespectfully by the opposite sex.
00:59:53.000 I don't believe this is related to being disrespected.
00:59:55.000 I think it's related to the hyper-woke-ification and expectations.
01:00:00.000 So, when you have that video, five hours of walking through New York as a woman, and quite literally a man saying, hi, is considered sexual harassment, women are gonna be like, I was harassed today when a guy waved to me!
01:00:10.000 Also...
01:00:11.000 They all said they're lonely and they're not interacting with anyone.
01:00:14.000 They don't hang out with their friends.
01:00:14.000 So when are they being spoken to inappropriately?
01:00:17.000 Perhaps on the video games online?
01:00:19.000 They're anonymous and there's no social check to say you can't talk to women that way?
01:00:25.000 Well, and if you've ever played Call of Duty and been in one of those game chats, that's kind of the whole point.
01:00:30.000 So I think they should interact with real men in real life and see if this is the same thing.
01:00:35.000 It's also more socially expected among Gen Z and Millennials, but more so among Gen Z, walking up to a stranger in public is taboo.
01:00:46.000 Which is, it's so crazy to me.
01:00:48.000 Even for Millennials, a lot of people think it's very difficult to walk up to a stranger and talk to them.
01:00:54.000 I would be surprised if boomers, I'd be willing to bet, if we did a survey and said, Would it be strange, or would you find it difficult to approach a stranger and greet them and ask them how their day is going?
01:01:08.000 Boomers would have it be very low, Gen X lower, and then it would be the highest among Gen Z. Like, absolutely not.
01:01:16.000 There's all these videos where, like I mentioned, five hours of walking in New York.
01:01:20.000 What was the one that just, what's her face?
01:01:25.000 That one Twitter woman made a video of five hours of walking through New York as a gay woman holding hands with another woman.
01:01:32.000 And you know what the funny thing about these videos is?
01:01:34.000 All of them, they only ever show black people.
01:01:38.000 And the argument put forward by the woman who made that video, five hours of walking through New York, said it's because they edited the white people out.
01:01:46.000 Wow.
01:01:46.000 I'm sure.
01:01:47.000 I'm sure that's why.
01:01:48.000 But I mean like, are they lying?
01:01:51.000 Or did they really do it?
01:01:53.000 Because, like, you can say I'm sure, but I'm kind of like, either way, it's bad.
01:01:58.000 I don't know which one you think is bad.
01:02:02.000 They're intentionally trying to be racist, or... Or they're saying we edited the white people out because they didn't do anything.
01:02:08.000 No, no, no.
01:02:10.000 She said something like white men did harass her, but they removed it from the videos for some reason.
01:02:15.000 So either she's racist, or the white people didn't harass her, and so...
01:02:19.000 So it's like, hey, look, look, look, look, if her argument is that she's a racist, I'm willing to accept that she's a racist and she made racist propaganda.
01:02:25.000 Like, whatever hammer it is, the point is, look, if our view is, this video is BS, you're not being harassed when a guy says hi to you, I'm gonna go ahead and say, if this lady's saying she's a racist who's trying to smear a bunch of minorities, I'm gonna take her word for it and tell her her video's garbage, and it's not indicative of what's actually going on in society, because I don't think it is.
01:02:25.000 Sure.
01:02:46.000 Yeah, the five hours of walking in New York thing was so weird because people showed it everywhere and they're like, it's so crazy to be a woman and be like, really?
01:02:55.000 Like, this is it?
01:02:56.000 I feel like it's not.
01:02:57.000 It was hard for me not to believe that that video was edited.
01:02:59.000 Some of it was creepy.
01:03:00.000 Like a guy walking, just walking next to her for like five blocks and then just disappearing.
01:03:04.000 I'm like, That's pretty weird.
01:03:06.000 Well, when you kind of picked the worst city to film this in, like where I would say the large majority of creeps are, if something's going to happen to you, it's probably going to be in New York.
01:03:14.000 Or you can go five hours in L.A.
01:03:15.000 You're probably going to have a very special video.
01:03:17.000 How about we do this?
01:03:18.000 How about we make five hours of walking through, insert small rural Christian town, as a trad calf.
01:03:26.000 You're just doing like laps around the town because it takes you 10 minutes to get through the whole thing.
01:03:29.000 No one says anything.
01:03:30.000 You don't see anyone.
01:03:31.000 There's gonna be like a regular guy mowing as long as like, good day ma'am!
01:03:35.000 Hi!
01:03:35.000 And then she keeps walking and that's it.
01:03:37.000 I know someone who lives in a small town, a woman, and she was saying she actually loves going to the local grocery store because men are always like, you look so nice today!
01:03:45.000 Like, hope you're having a having a good day and then they leave her alone.
01:03:48.000 Like I think it's different when you're in a city and you're already feeling like you're on a guard, right?
01:03:52.000 And I'm not saying that people, men can't be creepy on the streets
01:03:54.000 and that's important to like recognize that women feel, you know, not protected.
01:03:58.000 On the other hand, like maybe that's why she'd walk around with a man who could protect you and they won't admit that.
01:04:03.000 We should do a parody video where it's like five hours of walking through a small Christian town
01:04:07.000 as a trad Catholic woman.
01:04:09.000 And it's like, she's got a basket of apples and she's skipping and there's a guy like, how do you miss?
01:04:12.000 And she's like, howdy sir.
01:04:13.000 And then she keeps walking.
01:04:14.000 cop pulls up, are you okay, are you lost or anything?
01:04:16.000 I'm gonna hit a ride somewhere.
01:04:18.000 All right.
01:04:18.000 And then it's like, and then the inverse is five hours of walking through a small Christian town as a lib femme woke woman.
01:04:24.000 And it's the exact same thing.
01:04:26.000 But every time someone says something, just, ah!
01:04:28.000 Ah!
01:04:28.000 There's a guy like, how do you know?
01:04:30.000 She pepper sprays him.
01:04:30.000 Ah!
01:04:31.000 Male aggression.
01:04:33.000 Yeah.
01:04:35.000 Okay.
01:04:35.000 Y'all think I'm joking, but we're going for it.
01:04:38.000 I did a video on this earlier.
01:04:38.000 I'm playing this video.
01:04:42.000 This is a clip from Ketchup.
01:04:44.000 Ketchup feed, not ketchup as in, it's in ketchup with the news, and it says, uh, quote, I have anxiety, I'm indigenous, I'm non-binary, it's a video of a woman who was, uh, presumably driving drunk, the wrong way down the road, and she gets pulled over, and this is what, I'm sorry, Gen Z, but y'all are gonna have to, uh, have some explaining to do here, and so, uh, we're gonna play, we're gonna play this video for you right now.
01:05:08.000 Why are you driving in the wrong way of traffic?
01:05:10.000 No, I just got changed around.
01:05:12.000 I just moved here like two months ago.
01:05:14.000 Okay.
01:05:14.000 I just got changed around.
01:05:16.000 Okay.
01:05:16.000 Do you understand what's going on though?
01:05:18.000 You're going into oncoming traffic.
01:05:18.000 Yes.
01:05:20.000 I know and I just decided that it was better just to turn around really f***ing quick.
01:05:27.000 But I'm sorry.
01:05:27.000 Okay.
01:05:28.000 I just have like really bad social anxiety and stuff.
01:05:31.000 But I don't want to step out whenever you're asking for Okay, well we're past that.
01:05:31.000 I get you.
01:05:37.000 Let's just go ahead and step out.
01:05:39.000 Wow.
01:05:39.000 Oh, just wait.
01:05:41.000 It gets crazy.
01:05:42.000 I saw clips of this.
01:05:43.000 I saw clips of this.
01:05:43.000 Miss Perry?
01:05:45.000 What was her end of sentence there?
01:05:47.000 Miss Perry?
01:05:49.000 Well, I'm non-binary, so...
01:05:51.000 Okay. What do you go by?
01:05:53.000 Sky.
01:05:55.000 How can I refer to you tonight?
01:05:56.000 Kai?
01:05:57.000 Okay.
01:05:57.000 Hey, I'm smelling alcohol.
01:05:58.000 This guy was trying so hard.
01:05:59.000 He's doing a great job.
01:06:01.000 Three drinks.
01:06:02.000 I need to run you through some tests right now.
01:06:04.000 Why would you ever admit to that?
01:06:05.000 But I just want you to know that I also have very bad social anxiety.
01:06:08.000 You and me both.
01:06:10.000 Who doesn't these days?
01:06:13.000 Her face is, I don't believe you.
01:06:15.000 I'm the only one who can have social anxiety.
01:06:17.000 Yeah, only I'm allowed to be a victim.
01:06:18.000 Yeah, right.
01:06:19.000 Focus on my finger, please.
01:06:21.000 I am.
01:06:22.000 You're just, like, trying to intimidate me.
01:06:25.000 I don't know how I'm trying to do that.
01:06:26.000 Oh, man.
01:06:26.000 This is a test.
01:06:27.000 As you know, as an indigenous person, you're supposed to be correct with that one.
01:06:32.000 I'm sorry, but it's just for me to be on my toes.
01:06:38.000 Can you remember that I told you that?
01:06:41.000 I'm non-binary.
01:06:43.000 I'll try my hardest.
01:06:44.000 I'll work for you as Kai, right?
01:06:45.000 I noticed.
01:06:46.000 Perfect.
01:06:47.000 I need to know if you have any injuries.
01:06:48.000 How could I forget?
01:06:49.000 He's so professional.
01:06:50.000 He's like, okay, I'll remember.
01:06:51.000 Look, look, look.
01:06:52.000 Do you have any injuries?
01:06:54.000 Physical injuries?
01:06:55.000 Mental.
01:06:56.000 Mental, yeah.
01:07:02.000 Okay.
01:07:03.000 I get you.
01:07:04.000 Your medical history?
01:07:05.000 Now with your right foot, place it in front of your left in a heel-to-toe touching manner with your arms by your side.
01:07:10.000 Just like this, ma'am.
01:07:12.000 The cop is being so misgendered.
01:07:13.000 He misgendered right there, though.
01:07:14.000 I'm trying my hardest.
01:07:15.000 I'm trying my hardest.
01:07:16.000 Okay.
01:07:17.000 It means a lot to me.
01:07:18.000 I'm trying my hardest.
01:07:20.000 I don't feel like a man, so... Okay.
01:07:22.000 It's kind of triggering.
01:07:23.000 Right foot in front of your left.
01:07:24.000 Nope, go back.
01:07:25.000 This feels like it could be a parody.
01:07:26.000 I know!
01:07:29.000 I can't walk forward now because you called Sam.
01:07:32.000 You have zero questions.
01:07:33.000 Wait, it gets crazy.
01:07:34.000 It gets crazy here.
01:07:35.000 No, but I just wanted to tell you that I suffer from really bad anxiety.
01:07:39.000 With generational trauma and people around.
01:07:40.000 Right! Shouldn't be driving!
01:07:42.000 With generational trauma and PTSD around...
01:07:44.000 Oh my god, dude, stop.
01:07:46.000 How old is she? She acts like her ancestors were slaves.
01:07:48.000 Generations and generations. Literally.
01:07:50.000 Here we go.
01:07:52.000 It's just...
01:07:55.000 No.
01:07:56.000 Yes, ma'am.
01:07:57.000 Go ahead and put your hands behind your back.
01:07:58.000 Just admit that you were drunk.
01:07:59.000 Don't, dude.
01:08:00.000 Don't, please.
01:08:01.000 Make it hard.
01:08:02.000 No, you're... You're going to get a resisting charge.
01:08:05.000 Dude, I... You're going to get a resisting charge.
01:08:07.000 I... Don't!
01:08:08.000 Don't resist.
01:08:09.000 Don't!
01:08:10.000 Listen to me.
01:08:11.000 Don't resist.
01:08:13.000 What does it mean you're being a white man?
01:08:14.000 I've been a white man my whole life.
01:08:17.000 It's a slur.
01:08:17.000 I did everything you said and I'm getting in trouble.
01:08:21.000 F*** you guys.
01:08:22.000 Hold on, hold on.
01:08:23.000 You guys are scaring me.
01:08:26.000 There's nothing to be afraid of.
01:08:27.000 What does it mean you're being a white man?
01:08:30.000 I think we all know what it means.
01:08:31.000 There's nothing I can do about it.
01:08:32.000 Yeah, right.
01:08:33.000 I've been a white man my whole life.
01:08:35.000 It's a slur.
01:08:36.000 She's using it like a slur.
01:08:37.000 Yes.
01:08:38.000 Yup.
01:08:39.000 You're being a white man like he's being kind to you?
01:08:41.000 No, no, like, this is an important point.
01:08:43.000 He's arresting her.
01:08:45.000 She's getting in trouble.
01:08:46.000 She's claiming that you're harming me.
01:08:49.000 You're being a white man is an insult to someone.
01:08:53.000 Normally in her circles, I bet that works.
01:08:55.000 I bet when some guy says something like, no, I'm not going to give you the last slice of pizza.
01:08:59.000 She goes, you're being a white man.
01:09:01.000 He goes, you're right.
01:09:02.000 I'm sorry.
01:09:02.000 Here's the pizza.
01:09:03.000 This cop is like, lady, you're driving the wrong way down the road into oncoming traffic.
01:09:09.000 I don't care.
01:09:09.000 You're right.
01:09:10.000 Sorry for electricity.
01:09:11.000 She admitted to having three beers, which is probably less than she had.
01:09:15.000 She's like resetting what she just said like five minutes ago, too.
01:09:19.000 She's saying all these things so she can be like, well, it's actually that he was being mean to me.
01:09:23.000 It wasn't that I was drunk.
01:09:24.000 It's my PTSD.
01:09:25.000 She led with her excuses because she knows she's in the wrong.
01:09:28.000 You know, the advice that I was given was just don't do the field sobriety test.
01:09:31.000 Right!
01:09:31.000 And don't talk.
01:09:34.000 And your worst case scenario is they arrest you and give you the breathalyzer back at the station.
01:09:38.000 And I'm not a lawyer.
01:09:40.000 But I recommend consulting a lawyer.
01:09:41.000 More importantly, don't drink and drive, and don't go the wrong way down the road.
01:09:45.000 Well, she just moved here.
01:09:46.000 She doesn't know.
01:09:47.000 She can't read street signs.
01:09:48.000 They were different.
01:09:49.000 It's the generational trauma that makes it so that she got her license, in which you have to take a written test to get your license, but then she forgot you can't drive the wrong way down the road.
01:09:57.000 And she's like bringing her ancestors and stuff.
01:10:01.000 No, I'm sorry.
01:10:02.000 The Babylon Bees gotta make a parody of this one.
01:10:04.000 They could go, I don't think you could make a parody.
01:10:07.000 How could you parody it?
01:10:08.000 Is this recent?
01:10:09.000 You know, I gotta be honest, you're actually... it's probably true.
01:10:12.000 I would like a follow-up.
01:10:14.000 I want to know what happened when she got to the police station.
01:10:16.000 I bet this police officer went home to his wife and was just... He didn't even know where to tell her.
01:10:23.000 That's amazing.
01:10:23.000 I might get brought up on hate crimes, but...
01:10:28.000 I mean, I would love it if she got charged with, like, some kind of hate crime charge.
01:10:33.000 I say that only, like, half seriously.
01:10:36.000 Oh, I think she should.
01:10:36.000 Because if the woke left wants all these hate crime charges, then if you insult or attack or deride a person based on their race, then you should get resisting and, like, invective or whatever.
01:10:45.000 If she had looked at him and said, you're being a black man right now, it would have been so different.
01:10:50.000 It would have been so different.
01:10:51.000 Like, can you imagine?
01:10:53.000 Especially considering he's white.
01:10:54.000 It would have been complicated then, but like, the fact that she can use your being a white man as a slur and we all kind of are like, so crazy, except in another version of this we would all be like, that's a completely inappropriate thing for her to say is actually not okay because it's treating one racial group in a way that we don't treat others.
01:11:12.000 So the reason I wanted to bring this up is we just did that, we just had that big survey showing Gen Z's changes.
01:11:19.000 Now, I mean, come on.
01:11:20.000 There are a lot of sane and rational Gen Z, and we see it in the data.
01:11:25.000 They are pushing away from this kind of insanity, and they're saying, enough.
01:11:30.000 I gotta say, like, if I was a Gen Z guy and I was seeing this, I'd be like, stop giving us a bad name, man.
01:11:34.000 That's how I feel.
01:11:35.000 I'm Gen Z, and I watch this video and I'm like, are you serious right now?
01:11:39.000 I'm with the boomers!
01:11:40.000 Leave me alone!
01:11:41.000 And this person only cares about they themselves, you know?
01:11:44.000 They them.
01:11:46.000 I did the best I could.
01:11:47.000 Kai only cares about Kai, right?
01:11:49.000 Kai does not care that Kai has been drinking and driving and could hurt someone else.
01:11:52.000 Kai does not care that Kai is going down on a retreat.
01:11:54.000 Kai has excuses.
01:11:55.000 Drinking and driving is a social construct.
01:11:57.000 Right.
01:11:57.000 Kai has excuses like there's no tomorrow and ultimately everyone should care about Kai even though Kai has to care about no one else.
01:12:03.000 That's all I got from this conversation.
01:12:04.000 Why would you admit to drinking?
01:12:05.000 I don't know.
01:12:06.000 That blows my mind.
01:12:08.000 Kai has generational trauma and therefore is justified.
01:12:09.000 I'm willing to bet a single parent household.
01:12:12.000 Single mother.
01:12:13.000 Guaranteed.
01:12:13.000 I would say guaranteed single mother household.
01:12:16.000 Or two mothers.
01:12:17.000 One of the two.
01:12:18.000 But most likely single mother.
01:12:19.000 One thing that always really offended me, because this happened a lot when I worked at Fusion.
01:12:24.000 Fusion was very leftist and woke.
01:12:26.000 And that whole trend started about the talk.
01:12:29.000 And you had those commercials where it's like, you know, black families have to give their kids the talk.
01:12:35.000 And I was like, whoa, what's that?
01:12:37.000 And then they showed, they played these videos where it was like a black father talking to his son and be like, when you get pulled over, turn the dome light on, engine off, keys on the dash, wall on the dash, hands on the wheel.
01:12:46.000 And I was like, oh yeah, my dad gave me that talk too.
01:12:48.000 And they went, no he didn't!
01:12:49.000 It's something that, and I was like, wait, wait, wait, hold on.
01:12:52.000 Legit, this is the... Yo, I think you're talking about rich people or something.
01:12:57.000 Because everyone I knew in my neighborhood, no matter what their race was, got the talk.
01:13:01.000 But there was this woke, liberal, lib-left talking point that only black families get the talk.
01:13:05.000 And for those that... I'll clarify.
01:13:07.000 The talk is when a father explains, or mother, explains to their kids what to do when you're pulled over by the police.
01:13:14.000 Everyone I know of every different race was told, if you get pulled over, turn the engine off, put the keys in the dash, turn the light on, put your hands on the wheel.
01:13:22.000 Then when they ask for your license and insurance, it's on the dash, you grab it, and all your hands are in plain view the whole time.
01:13:28.000 Well, I got the talk, and I come from a family of police officers, so that should show.
01:13:31.000 I got the talk in driver's head.
01:13:33.000 They teach you that in driver's head.
01:13:35.000 Don't hit the gas pedal when you get pulled over.
01:13:37.000 Why?
01:13:38.000 Don't reach for something very quickly.
01:13:39.000 Turn the music down because, you know, they're stopping you.
01:13:43.000 Don't reach for the glove box, all these things.
01:13:45.000 That's why it's like, you get pulled over, you put your insurance on the dash, you put your wallet on the dash, you put the keys on the dash, they know you can't drive, the car's not gonna move, the light's on, they can see everything, you grab your I just wait for them to approach with my hands where they can see them, because like... Well yeah, you put your hands on the wheel, so they can see your hands.
01:14:00.000 Until they ask you to do something.
01:14:02.000 Well and if you're armed, you let them know that you're armed.
01:14:04.000 At least in most situations, but it also can backfire.
01:14:08.000 That's bad advice.
01:14:09.000 Different states have different laws on this, and you gotta talk to your lawyer about that one.
01:14:13.000 Some states require it and some states don't, and some states create serious problems if you needlessly start saying things like that.
01:14:19.000 So, that's... I can see that.
01:14:20.000 Yeah, don't listen to that.
01:14:22.000 Talk to your lawyer about... It's what I've wondered, because if you're driving with, like, a gun in your glove box and you have to get your insurance... Well, that's usually, like, I'll have a gun in the glove box and then you... usually my wallet's in the glove box or something, so then you have to reach in and you say, hey, officer, I want you to know there's a firearm in the glove box, but my wallet or my registration is also there.
01:14:42.000 You can reach in if you'd like, or I can reach in for it.
01:14:44.000 Now you're consenting them to search your vehicle.
01:14:45.000 Yep.
01:14:46.000 Depending on the jurisdiction, it can get crazy where if you offer an officer to check the car, they can search the whole thing and take you out.
01:14:51.000 Yeah, that's nuts to me.
01:14:52.000 Yeah, I don't know if it's true though, but when I was a kid, they said if the cop asks you to open the glove box, they can see you've just given a full consent for the car.
01:15:01.000 Correct.
01:15:02.000 Yeah, and it's usually like some argument of when he opened it, I thought I saw something, so now I have to investigate.
01:15:07.000 And he said it was okay that I searched it, so.
01:15:09.000 But you know, here's the important thing.
01:15:11.000 The reason why you never talk to cops, sorry cops, the reason why you never talk to cops is because there's this great Supreme Court justice who went over all the basics of it, but there's really one simple thing.
01:15:23.000 Are you and the cop going to remember things the exact same way?
01:15:26.000 All that matters.
01:15:28.000 Cop could be the best, nicest guy in the world, and he swears that you said that you were gonna shoot him up when you said, I'm going to root him up for your baseball team, who knows?
01:15:41.000 He could interpret what you said incorrectly or mishear you or something.
01:15:45.000 Or you can say, he says, what are you doing out here?
01:15:49.000 Hey, you're speeding.
01:15:50.000 And you say, just out having fun.
01:15:53.000 And he hears, just out with my gun.
01:15:55.000 And then he goes, I'm gonna need to step out of the vehicle, sir.
01:15:57.000 Then when you go to court and you say, he illegally searched my vehicle, the cop says, the driver informed me that he was armed.
01:16:03.000 I searched his vehicle.
01:16:05.000 You should always keep it bare minimum.
01:16:06.000 you know, a possession of illegal substances, and you can say, I never said that. I said I was just out having fun.
01:16:11.000 And who's gonna, the jury's gonna believe you? If however you say literally nothing,
01:16:15.000 then he can't say anything. He can lie and lie, but if it's a, you know, in the instant
01:16:20.000 you're dealing with a good cop who's not going to lie, he's gonna be like, he wouldn't talk to me.
01:16:23.000 You should always keep it bare minimum. I mean, just give them what they absolutely need in that moment.
01:16:28.000 I would say give them what you're legally required to give them.
01:16:32.000 And then, uh, you know, typically I just be respectful and say, you know, with all due respect, I'll wait.
01:16:37.000 Let me know when I'm, when, when you're finished.
01:16:38.000 It's crazy how far respect goes to in traffic stops.
01:16:41.000 People don't realize that.
01:16:42.000 If you're just respectful... Bro, in life.
01:16:45.000 In life, too.
01:16:46.000 Especially in traffic stops.
01:16:47.000 Like, in Texas, I've been pulled over five times in a matter of two years.
01:16:51.000 Yeah, I don't want to talk about it.
01:16:52.000 Texas cops are on something else.
01:16:54.000 Is it ginger racism?
01:16:55.000 Something.
01:16:56.000 Profiling, straight up.
01:16:57.000 But four out of those five times?
01:16:59.000 No ticket.
01:17:00.000 I've had my... What?
01:17:01.000 Well, right, so here's the challenge.
01:17:03.000 I mean, I'm not a fan of lawyers.
01:17:07.000 I feel like legal advice from lawyers is always, I'm just like, look man, situational.
01:17:14.000 I've been pulled over.
01:17:15.000 I'm driving the highway and it's like, it's super late at night.
01:17:18.000 I'm in the middle of nowhere in rural Illinois.
01:17:21.000 I'm speeding, not speeding too crazily.
01:17:23.000 And I get pulled over and I'm like, shit.
01:17:26.000 And the cop walks up and he's like, how's it going there, buddy?
01:17:28.000 You got a license and insurance?
01:17:29.000 They don't say license and registration.
01:17:31.000 And he's like, you were speeding.
01:17:32.000 And I was like, bro, I gotta go to the bathroom, man.
01:17:33.000 I'm sorry.
01:17:34.000 And he's like, all right, dude, slow down.
01:17:36.000 And he let me go.
01:17:37.000 Nope, like if I gave him the business, I'm stuck there having to go to, I had to take a dump.
01:17:42.000 And I'm like, bro, I'm just trying to get off at Naperville.
01:17:44.000 I got to get the best- That card works, I will say it.
01:17:46.000 But I literally did.
01:17:47.000 If someone uses that card, it works.
01:17:48.000 So it's like, and there've been instances where I've, it's not happened to me, but my friends have said
01:17:55.000 that they were snooty to the cop.
01:17:58.000 And the cop said, I was gonna give you a warning, but you're being a dick, so now you get a ticket.
01:18:01.000 So it's tough.
01:18:02.000 I mean, you don't want to admit to committing crimes or anything.
01:18:04.000 Like, no lawyer would tell you to do that.
01:18:07.000 But if you make it easy for the officer and you're respectful, you might just, you know, tap on the top of the car and be like, come on, man, slow down, because I got to pull you over next time if you do it again.
01:18:15.000 And you're like, all right, dude, I got it.
01:18:17.000 The other thing, too, is sometimes you get bad cops.
01:18:20.000 Right.
01:18:20.000 It's tough because you never know if you're going to get a nice one or a not nice one.
01:18:24.000 Yeah.
01:18:24.000 You never know how much you can say without them using it against you.
01:18:27.000 My advice would be don't claim to the officer that you have anxiety, generational trauma, are non-binary, and triggered.
01:18:34.000 Or all of them.
01:18:35.000 Or put it on your ancestors.
01:18:36.000 Come on.
01:18:38.000 Her ancestors are looking down just like, come on, man.
01:18:40.000 Yeah, shaking their heads like, jeez.
01:18:41.000 Dude, I'm, she says she's indigenous.
01:18:44.000 Right, she did.
01:18:45.000 I have to wonder about- Just like Elizabeth Warren, right, yeah.
01:18:47.000 But no, no, no, let's operate on the assumption that she is totally indigenous.
01:18:51.000 I'm wondering if her Comanche ancestors are just like, she's not ours.
01:18:54.000 If you said tomahawk people, what are you doing?
01:18:59.000 Yeah, right?
01:19:00.000 Especially if she's Comanche or something like that, at least in her inner heritage, they probably must be so mad at her for this, this whole situation.
01:19:07.000 Even drinking the fire water, come on.
01:19:10.000 Come on, what are you doing?
01:19:11.000 Like you're not eating peyote, you're doing this?
01:19:13.000 Come on.
01:19:13.000 Yeah, seriously, that's like- I don't know if the Comanche did that, because they were- Nah, peyote would be like South America.
01:19:19.000 Yeah.
01:19:19.000 Fair enough.
01:19:20.000 But still.
01:19:21.000 Aztecs maybe?
01:19:21.000 You get the point.
01:19:23.000 You're not rolling a fat tobacco one, there you go.
01:19:25.000 Peyote would be like New Mexico and stuff, huh?
01:19:27.000 I imagine so.
01:19:28.000 I don't know too much about Joe Rogan, so I have no idea.
01:19:30.000 Not Joe Rogan.
01:19:32.000 Yeah, and then Ayahuasca would be South America.
01:19:34.000 And then you have those crazy cactuses, what are they called?
01:19:39.000 That's peyote.
01:19:40.000 Peyote's a cactus.
01:19:41.000 Yeah, but there's another one, I forget what they're called.
01:19:46.000 Different cactus, same thing, doesn't matter, not important.
01:19:49.000 Still.
01:19:50.000 I fear for Gen Z, my friends, but this data that we have gives me pause and maybe I am more hopeful for the future of this country because of this data.
01:20:01.000 Because we had a Gen Z person in the room say, this is embarrassing to us all.
01:20:04.000 It is highly, highly embarrassing.
01:20:05.000 How old are you?
01:20:06.000 I'm 23.
01:20:07.000 Oh, okay.
01:20:07.000 Yeah.
01:20:08.000 So I'm like right on the, I mean, I was born in 2000, so I'm pretty close to the cutoff.
01:20:11.000 Really?
01:20:12.000 What's the youngest millennial?
01:20:14.000 Isn't it like 20... Core is supposed to be 92, which is my birth year.
01:20:18.000 92 is a cutoff for millennial?
01:20:20.000 I think that I heard the last year of millennial or like the last year of millennial is 96 and 97 is the first year of Gen Z. I think that sounds right.
01:20:29.000 Yeah, I've heard that before as well.
01:20:31.000 Yeah, roughly the same.
01:20:33.000 Uh, 81 to 96, according to Britannica.
01:20:35.000 Mm-hmm.
01:20:37.000 Oh, okay.
01:20:38.000 Wow, that's crazy.
01:20:39.000 But I kind of feel like- Because I told you the other night, like, I am- I feel like I'm right at the end of the money.
01:20:43.000 That's crazy, though.
01:20:44.000 If you- if you were born in 81, you were 15 when the other kid was born, you're the same generation.
01:20:48.000 It's weird.
01:20:48.000 That doesn't make much sense.
01:20:49.000 Because that's why you get the zillennial.
01:20:51.000 Zillennial.
01:20:52.000 Zillennial whatever.
01:20:54.000 All I know is I grew up with good cartoons.
01:20:56.000 I had the great cartoons.
01:20:57.000 I had the Ed, Edd n Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog.
01:21:00.000 Oh, come on.
01:21:00.000 Those are great.
01:21:01.000 Courage was good.
01:21:02.000 Or Billy and Mandy.
01:21:04.000 Billy and Mandy was good, but Edd n Eddy was the worst.
01:21:06.000 I love that.
01:21:07.000 They were losers.
01:21:08.000 Oh, they were losers for sure.
01:21:09.000 They were out, they were with their friends constantly, they lived on a cul-de-sac.
01:21:13.000 I mean, this is what Gen Z never had.
01:21:16.000 But I just don't understand, like, I just, I never as a kid liked watching shows where the main characters lose and were losers.
01:21:22.000 Every episode.
01:21:23.000 I hate it.
01:21:25.000 You know why I like The Simpsons?
01:21:26.000 Because Homer was like he's Forrest Gump and about and it's funny and the same thing with Peter Griffin.
01:21:32.000 I like and Fry.
01:21:33.000 They're they're They're really dumb, but things turn out well for them.
01:21:37.000 CatDog was a good one, too.
01:21:39.000 I don't watch CatDog.
01:21:39.000 That was crazy.
01:21:40.000 It was crazy.
01:21:42.000 That was messed up though.
01:21:44.000 Yeah, like all the best cartoons are a little messed up though.
01:21:47.000 CatDog for those who don't know it's like One end is a cat and one end is a dog.
01:21:51.000 So you have to wonder about how that works, you know what I mean?
01:21:54.000 It's kind of messed up.
01:21:55.000 Being that age though, you don't think too much into it.
01:21:56.000 No, you don't.
01:21:58.000 Yeah, but now it's with the weird... I guess the bigger concern is probably for Gen Alpha because Elsagate and the things that popped up on YouTube with all this weird freaky sexualized content is it's embedded in their brains.
01:22:11.000 Yeah.
01:22:11.000 Right, people need to understand.
01:22:13.000 I love this.
01:22:14.000 Why does time fly as you get older, right?
01:22:18.000 It feels like when you're younger As you get older, the years are passing faster and faster and faster.
01:22:23.000 And it's mostly due to the fact that your brain ignores routine.
01:22:28.000 It does not need to store the same data as it did when you were younger.
01:22:32.000 So from the ages of five to 10 years old, it feels like every year feels like an eternity and you just can't wait.
01:22:39.000 When you're older, you're like, wow, I can't believe it's been three years already.
01:22:42.000 Man, can you believe the lockdowns were three years ago?
01:22:44.000 Seriously, it's November of 2023.
01:22:47.000 Joe Biden's got his last year.
01:22:49.000 Can you believe it?
01:22:50.000 It's because we're not tracking these things like when we were young.
01:22:53.000 So, for a Gen Alpha baby or toddler who's watching big-breasted Hitler dancing with the Incredible Hulk.
01:23:02.000 It's a real video, I'm not making that up.
01:23:04.000 That's gonna be like 7% of their psyche.
01:23:08.000 Because they've only been here for a couple years and they watched those videos for like 8 months.
01:23:13.000 I remember how impactful cartoons were on me when I was a kid.
01:23:16.000 That was my life.
01:23:18.000 So it was Richie's birthday the other day, and for his birthday we just did a bunch of Simpsons references, and it was actually fun and funny, but off-putting, that we all knew so much about the Simpsons, and we can't even tell you the Articles of the Constitution.
01:23:33.000 Like, bits and pieces, Article 1, Section 2 says, we just listen to that, right?
01:23:38.000 And then the amendments.
01:23:40.000 But man, you wanna tell me about how the flaming Moe got invented?
01:23:43.000 I can break down exactly how it went down.
01:23:46.000 You wanna talk about the spruce moose?
01:23:48.000 Just give me season 1 through 9 of The Simpsons and I just... We can sing the Monorail song right now.
01:23:54.000 Okay, but now you can't choke Bart any longer.
01:23:56.000 No, no more choking.
01:23:57.000 I never did either.
01:23:58.000 And Abe Simpson's gay.
01:23:59.000 I don't get any of these references, I didn't watch The Simpsons growing up, but it makes me feel like I operated in a different culture than you guys.
01:24:05.000 I mean, that's right.
01:24:06.000 I'm over here, you know, I don't know what I was doing.
01:24:08.000 What were you watching?
01:24:09.000 I watched The Goats, Sword Box Squarepants all the time.
01:24:12.000 Oh yeah, of course.
01:24:12.000 Spongebob's still a good one.
01:24:13.000 Spongebob's three seasons only.
01:24:14.000 I wasn't allowed to watch TV during school nights.
01:24:18.000 Like, Monday to Friday I couldn't watch TV, I could only watch it on Saturdays and part of Sunday.
01:24:22.000 And so I feel like it made me- I could watch it Friday nights, actually.
01:24:26.000 But I feel like it just made me miss all kinds of things.
01:24:29.000 You don't have enough time to catch up.
01:24:30.000 See, I'd fall asleep watching cartoons and I'd wake up at 3am to Robot Chicken.
01:24:35.000 And that was my life.
01:24:37.000 So you had like a TV in your room growing up?
01:24:39.000 No, I'd fall asleep in the living room a lot of the time.
01:24:43.000 I mean, you'd either wake up to Robot Chicken, or, uh, what is it, George, what?
01:24:47.000 I mean, there's so many different things.
01:24:49.000 I would just wake up to Oral, Robot Chicken.
01:24:52.000 Yeah, but, uh, I'm older than you, so when I would fall asleep watching Adult Swim, I'd wake up to, like, C-Lab and Space Ghost.
01:25:00.000 Or the Girls Gone Wild commercial.
01:25:01.000 That's true, yeah, that was always on.
01:25:03.000 And then it was really great when Adult Swim got Family Guy, because then I was watching that.
01:25:07.000 Oh yeah, that's true.
01:25:07.000 But yeah, when I was, man, when I was 16, you were, how old would that make you?
01:25:11.000 Two?
01:25:12.000 Were you even here yet?
01:25:13.000 I don't know.
01:25:14.000 I mean, born in 2000, you're 37?
01:25:15.000 Yeah, I'd be right around there.
01:25:18.000 Right, so I'm 16 watching Adult Swim.
01:25:20.000 And it was like Space Ghost and Sea Lab and, um... Oh, the Brack Show?
01:25:24.000 Is that what it was called?
01:25:25.000 Yeah, Brack.
01:25:25.000 Yeah, there's also like, uh... I like that show.
01:25:27.000 Squidbillies was a good one.
01:25:28.000 No, I hate Squidbillies.
01:25:29.000 I would wake up to Squidbillies, and that one was messed up.
01:25:31.000 Yeah, that's like a later generation.
01:25:33.000 Oh, yeah.
01:25:33.000 I remember also watching, like, Toonami and watching, like, Rurouni Kenshin and, like, uh... Who else?
01:25:38.000 Like, Yu Yu Hakusho.
01:25:38.000 Yu Yu Hakusho.
01:25:39.000 Spirit Detective was a big one for me.
01:25:41.000 Yeah, Yu Yu Hakusho.
01:25:42.000 You know Yasha?
01:25:42.000 Also a big one for me.
01:25:43.000 And what else did they have on that?
01:25:44.000 I don't know.
01:25:45.000 Dragon Ball.
01:25:45.000 Oh, like Ronin Warriors.
01:25:46.000 They had so many random shows at that period of time.
01:25:48.000 Yeah.
01:25:48.000 Yeah.
01:25:49.000 Goku, of course.
01:25:49.000 Dragon Ball Z. Yeah.
01:25:50.000 I don't know what they're doing now, though.
01:25:52.000 No, me either.
01:25:52.000 But I also wonder, too, about, like, the superheroes that Gen Z and Gen Alpha have.
01:25:57.000 Remember when Marvel did the new Warriors?
01:25:59.000 They canceled it, but it was, like, Snowflake and Safe Space?
01:26:03.000 Wow.
01:26:03.000 Do you remember that?
01:26:04.000 I can remember that.
01:26:05.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:26:05.000 Oh, man.
01:26:05.000 Let me pull that one up.
01:26:06.000 Snowflake.
01:26:07.000 See, I grew up on, like, Spider-Man and Iron Man.
01:26:10.000 Those are the go-to for me.
01:26:12.000 True.
01:26:12.000 I grew up with Tobey Maguire.
01:26:14.000 He will always be the best Spider-Man.
01:26:17.000 And here's a crazy thing.
01:26:19.000 This was a big scandal, I guess, when it came out.
01:26:21.000 I don't know if it was a scandal, but I wasn't making fun of it.
01:26:23.000 Snowflake and Safe Space and then quite literally a morbidly obese Mexican woman and her superpowers.
01:26:29.000 She has a backpack that she can pull anything out of.
01:26:32.000 She's Dora.
01:26:32.000 She's from that arrest video.
01:26:33.000 No, she's Dora.
01:26:34.000 Oh man. No, but for real, what they were probably thinking was, the kids today, the teenagers
01:26:39.000 who are going to read this, grew up watching Dora the Explorer. Let's make a Dora superhero.
01:26:44.000 But here's the crazy thing is, Snowflake and Safe Space are brother and sister and they're
01:26:48.000 really into each other. Oh, I was going to say. There's an avatar there. I thought they
01:26:53.000 were a couple. This dude in the middle has internet powers, whatever that means.
01:26:57.000 He looks like a knockoff of Ben 10.
01:26:59.000 Did anyone become fluent watching Dora the Explorer?
01:27:02.000 Screen time!
01:27:04.000 Look at this kid.
01:27:04.000 He's got a meme-obsessed super teen whose brain became connected to the internet after he got exposed to experimental internet gas.
01:27:13.000 Look at this one!
01:27:16.000 Snowflake and Safe Space.
01:27:19.000 Their names match with what they look like, for sure.
01:27:21.000 I remember watching Batman mercilessly beat a guy, and then being like, but we don't kill.
01:27:27.000 And then in Injustice 2, when Batman and Robin, and it's Damian Wayne, so he's like League of Assassins, when Batman Just crunches a guy's skull and, like, it shows the x-ray and the brain cracks or whatever.
01:27:41.000 Like the Mortal Kombat x-ray?
01:27:43.000 It is.
01:27:43.000 Yeah.
01:27:43.000 And he's like, I don't kill.
01:27:45.000 And then Damien goes, yeah, but TBI is okay.
01:27:48.000 I'm like, that's... I love that degree of awareness of aging with your audience.
01:27:53.000 Right, yeah.
01:27:53.000 But my concern with this is, I grew up with heroes who are like, you have to be a good person, you have to help others, self-sacrifice, etc.
01:28:00.000 They're growing up with narcissistic, arrogant, whiny baby heroes.
01:28:03.000 This got cancelled, I guess.
01:28:05.000 Good.
01:28:05.000 Probably for the best.
01:28:06.000 Well, now you see, this stuff gets cancelled, but now you've got stuff like The Boys, The Titans, where the superheroes just murder, and it's like the reality of the superheroes.
01:28:16.000 You've got Wander mowing down crowds.
01:28:17.000 Did you just smoke past a gay vampire?
01:28:19.000 Oh, how dare you.
01:28:20.000 B-negative.
01:28:22.000 He's telling you to B-negative.
01:28:23.000 At least he's not HPV-negative.
01:28:26.000 There you go.
01:28:27.000 He was given a life-saving medical procedure where he was exposed to Morbius' blood as a child.
01:28:32.000 Man, I used to look up to, like, Fullmetal Alchemist.
01:28:35.000 I know!
01:28:36.000 Trailblazer.
01:28:37.000 Look at this!
01:28:38.000 I'm not kidding.
01:28:38.000 She's never walked a trail in her life.
01:28:40.000 She's a- it's a- it's a- it's a fat South American one with a backpack where she has a magic backpack which is a pocket dimension where she can pull useful- useful random objects.
01:28:50.000 She has this saying, backpack, backpack.
01:28:52.000 I mean, that is- yeah.
01:28:53.000 It's a little monkey pops out.
01:28:55.000 She's specifically against shoplifting from Boston?
01:28:57.000 Maybe they just got sued.
01:28:58.000 Wow.
01:28:58.000 I'm pretty sure they cancelled this and everyone was like, yo, this is embarrassing.
01:29:01.000 That is a bad idea.
01:29:03.000 I remember seeing clips go around of this on Twitter and everyone was just making fun of it.
01:29:07.000 It seems, again, like the Babylon Bee has struck.
01:29:09.000 Well, it's like drawn together, but not a joke.
01:29:13.000 Right.
01:29:13.000 It's not even funny.
01:29:14.000 Nothing's funny about it.
01:29:15.000 It's so weird.
01:29:16.000 This seems like something that like a right winger would come up with just for fun.
01:29:20.000 And you're like, it's a little heavy, you know what I mean?
01:29:22.000 Like it's a little too on the nose.
01:29:23.000 Also, what are they protecting you from?
01:29:27.000 The white men?
01:29:27.000 I don't understand.
01:29:29.000 Yes.
01:29:30.000 This is heteronormative patriarchy.
01:29:33.000 I love that stuff, though.
01:29:34.000 Why would they protect me from it?
01:29:36.000 The Marvels came out officially today.
01:29:39.000 Tanked.
01:29:39.000 Completely tanked.
01:29:40.000 Yeah, the reviews are bombing.
01:29:42.000 People don't want to watch it.
01:29:43.000 The trailers show Robert Downey Jr.
01:29:45.000 and Chris Evans from four years ago in Endgame because they know nobody wants to watch it.
01:29:50.000 Disney has destroyed everything.
01:29:52.000 South Park's roasting them for doing it.
01:29:54.000 The Pandaverse.
01:29:55.000 Yeah, a really great example.
01:29:59.000 There's a really great video I watched about Captain America versus Captain Marvel.
01:30:05.000 And it breaks down why Captain America was highly rated, why it was successful, made a billion dollars, and why Captain Marvel was panned and didn't do as well.
01:30:14.000 And it's really, really simple.
01:30:17.000 Captain America, that's a movie that's like 2011, I think.
01:30:20.000 What's the message being sent to people in 2011?
01:30:23.000 So how old, you were born in 2000?
01:30:24.000 Yeah.
01:30:25.000 So you're 11 years old, you saw Captain America?
01:30:26.000 Yep, absolutely.
01:30:27.000 You watched Steve Rogers throw himself on a grenade to save the other men who are... Captain America was great.
01:30:33.000 You watched a movie about a dude so desperate to fight for his country, he kept trying to lie his way into the military.
01:30:39.000 Now someone born in 2000 watched Captain Marvel, where she robs a guy because he asked her to smile.
01:30:45.000 She walks up to a guy, she's like, lands on earth, he's on a motorcycle with a leather jacket, and he sees her and he goes, you should smile more, and then she looks at him, then the next scene is her riding away with all of his stuff.
01:30:55.000 See, and I grew up on like, Ghost Rider and stuff.
01:30:57.000 Like, Ghost Rider, that was it.
01:30:59.000 Ghost Rider was awesome.
01:31:01.000 He was the peak top tier.
01:31:02.000 He has a flaming head and rides a motorcycle.
01:31:04.000 It's pretty sick.
01:31:06.000 Is he like accomplishing something?
01:31:07.000 Beast people with chains.
01:31:09.000 A flaming chain.
01:31:09.000 Yeah, a flaming chain.
01:31:10.000 Oh, and he's eternal and doesn't die ever.
01:31:12.000 It's just so cool.
01:31:14.000 And he just does this for no... Is he fighting crime?
01:31:16.000 No, it's a devil's contract.
01:31:17.000 Yeah.
01:31:17.000 Oh.
01:31:18.000 What is it?
01:31:19.000 He signed a deal with the devil?
01:31:21.000 No, it's immortality.
01:31:22.000 No, but what was the deal for?
01:31:23.000 Well, he died in... Well, he got in a really bad motorcycle accident.
01:31:26.000 Yeah.
01:31:26.000 Because he was like a stunt jumper.
01:31:28.000 Basically like Evel Knievel.
01:31:29.000 Right.
01:31:30.000 The devil said, I'll bring you back, but you... What was it, like, after you die, you'll work for me for eternity or something?
01:31:35.000 Pretty much, yeah.
01:31:36.000 Well, I don't know.
01:31:37.000 Sounds like a terrible deal.
01:31:38.000 Well, then he ends up slaying, like, demons and cool stuff, and, like, kinda turns on the devil a little bit.
01:31:43.000 Whoa, a double agent?
01:31:44.000 It's cool, it's cool.
01:31:45.000 I like the movie, Nicolas Cage.
01:31:48.000 That is a cool movie!
01:31:50.000 Yeah, anything with Nicolas Cage is over.
01:31:51.000 Oh yeah, for sure.
01:31:52.000 No question.
01:31:53.000 Not the bees!
01:31:54.000 Are you gonna see that?
01:31:55.000 He's in one right now about how he's a professor who like appears in everyone's dreams, like an A24 film.
01:32:00.000 What?
01:32:01.000 Well, he's in every movie.
01:32:01.000 If I know who Nicolas Cage is... I was watching one where he's like a buffalo rancher just like before the show started.
01:32:07.000 And I'm like, I can't really tell what's going on.
01:32:08.000 He can star in anything and it will be entertaining.
01:32:10.000 Yeah.
01:32:11.000 It could be the most bland thing ever.
01:32:12.000 He may be the best candidate to AI movie make.
01:32:14.000 Did you see the one where he plays himself?
01:32:17.000 Yes.
01:32:17.000 I wanted to see it.
01:32:18.000 What was that one?
01:32:19.000 I think it was literally called Nicholas Cage.
01:32:21.000 It's the fantastic life.
01:32:24.000 It was the fantastic life and then I think it was literally his name.
01:32:27.000 And it's like, he gets hired by this guy who's a super fan.
01:32:29.000 And it's, who's that?
01:32:30.000 Pablo Pascal or whatever's playing the guy.
01:32:32.000 And it's really- Pedro Pascal.
01:32:33.000 Pedro Pascal.
01:32:34.000 And then he's like, there's this really great scene where basically Nicolas Cage is informing to the government on this guy who's apparently a drug dealer.
01:32:42.000 And so Nicolas Cage is trying to go into this room and the guy's like, don't go in there, man.
01:32:45.000 Please.
01:32:46.000 It's going to change our relationship.
01:32:48.000 And he's like, this must be where the drugs are.
01:32:50.000 But he opens it up and it's just the most ridiculous Nicolas Cage fan room.
01:32:53.000 It's got all his props and his pictures.
01:32:55.000 And he's like, what?
01:32:56.000 The dude was actually just a super fan.
01:32:58.000 It was his brother or cousin or something that was doing all the bad shit.
01:33:01.000 That's so funny.
01:33:02.000 That movie was good.
01:33:02.000 Nicolas Cage is the best.
01:33:03.000 The one I'm talking about is called Dream Scenario, which apparently just came out, or it's coming out.
01:33:07.000 Oh, I've heard of that.
01:33:07.000 And he plays a college professor who, like, starts appearing in all of the kids in his lecture's dreams, but then it gets, like, weirder, and he's starting, like, to do strange things, and it becomes an internet.
01:33:16.000 Like, he goes viral, then he appears in other people's dreams.
01:33:19.000 Oh, really?
01:33:19.000 Yeah.
01:33:20.000 I wanna watch that.
01:33:20.000 Have you guys seen Next?
01:33:22.000 Uh-huh.
01:33:23.000 It's a MTV dating show?
01:33:25.000 Nicolas Cage plays a guy who can see like a minute or a minute and a half into the future.
01:33:29.000 Oh, I feel like I've seen that.
01:33:30.000 And so he like goes to casinos and he just wins whenever he wants but he keeps it on the DL and then he gets recruited.
01:33:36.000 Is that your trick?
01:33:36.000 Is that how you accomplish it?
01:33:38.000 That's how I win everything.
01:33:39.000 But it's actually a really clever movie.
01:33:41.000 It's a really clever concept.
01:33:42.000 You know, I recommend it.
01:33:44.000 It sounds cool.
01:33:44.000 Yeah, there's a great scene where he's at a bar, and then he sees a woman sitting at a, you know, sitting or whatever, there's like a guy bothering her.
01:33:53.000 So he gets up and he walks over to her, and then the guy's, it's her ex yelling at her, and so then he's like, listen buddy, you know, leave her alone.
01:34:02.000 The guy takes a swing at Nicolas Cage, who can see the future, so he dips perfectly and then punches the guy.
01:34:07.000 When the ex-boyfriend goes down, the woman goes, you dick!
01:34:10.000 And then she runs to her ex-boyfriend and cleans him up and says, get out of here!
01:34:14.000 Then time rewinds back to Nicolas Cage sitting at the counter.
01:34:16.000 That was him seeing the future.
01:34:18.000 He gets up, he walks over.
01:34:20.000 The guy starts giving the business and he says, come on, leave her alone.
01:34:23.000 And then as soon as the guy reaches to punch, Nicolas Cage goes, here it comes.
01:34:27.000 Gets hit in the face, falls down, and then she goes to him and calls the other guy a dick.
01:34:32.000 Yeah, Nicolas Cage is the best, man.
01:34:34.000 I love that.
01:34:34.000 I love that.
01:34:35.000 He's got great work.
01:34:36.000 Uh, Kick-Ass 1 and 2, I was a fan.
01:34:37.000 Oh, yeah.
01:34:38.000 Yeah, I forgot about those movies.
01:34:39.000 I love how we went from talking about, like...
01:34:42.000 It's Friday.
01:34:43.000 To snowflakes.
01:34:44.000 It's Friday.

01:35:00.000 You are the first Super Chatter.
01:35:01.000 I don't know how he does it every single time.
01:35:03.000 He's just hitting refresh non-stop.
01:35:05.000 He has to be.
01:35:06.000 All right.
01:35:07.000 Leroy Hall says, Trina Hall started her transplant treatment today.
01:35:10.000 Please continue to pray for her during this month.
01:35:12.000 Long journey.
01:35:13.000 Absolutely.
01:35:13.000 Good luck, man.
01:35:15.000 Wish you the best.
01:35:16.000 Shane H. Wilder says, Happy Veterans Day weekend to all our vets.
01:35:19.000 Also, Tim, I hope you enjoyed the cast brew meme with you as Charles Atlas.
01:35:23.000 I dropped it this morning.
01:35:24.000 Peace.
01:35:24.000 I did not see it.
01:35:26.000 But also, it's the birthday of the Continental Marines.
01:35:31.000 So happy birthday, Continental Marines.
01:35:33.000 248th.
01:35:33.000 Yeah!
01:35:35.000 Wow!
01:35:36.000 They went and they stopped those pirates!
01:35:39.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
01:35:39.000 says, Tim, stop.
01:35:40.000 I have PTSD from generational trauma and you're acting like a white man.
01:35:43.000 But also, happy birthday to my fellow Marines.
01:35:45.000 And for the lesser thens, happy Veterans Day tomorrow.
01:35:49.000 Not in my town.
01:35:52.000 It sounds like a Marine thing to say.
01:35:54.000 Matt Hancock says, happy birthday to the Marine Corps.
01:35:55.000 Check out the come and dance birthday message.
01:35:58.000 That is how to motivate recruitment.
01:36:00.000 True.
01:36:01.000 Yeah, did you see the new army commercial?
01:36:03.000 All white men.
01:36:04.000 We're going to war.
01:36:05.000 You saw it, right?
01:36:07.000 In 2021, I saw the side-by-side comparison of all the gender, the we love stuff, and then now, just all straight white men.
01:36:14.000 It's like, oh, we are so boned.
01:36:16.000 They went back.
01:36:17.000 Yeah.
01:36:17.000 Okay.
01:36:18.000 Elf Treehug says, more D&D references, please.
01:36:21.000 I suppose.
01:36:22.000 I don't know.
01:36:23.000 I've been playing a lot of Baldur's Gate, which is basically D&D.
01:36:26.000 Good game.
01:36:26.000 Good fun.
01:36:28.000 I'm not your buddy, guys.
01:36:29.000 This is purely political.
01:36:30.000 There is evidence.
01:36:31.000 Problem is, this would give the Dems an out for removing Biden.
01:36:34.000 It's more likely Biden will lose 2024.
01:36:36.000 Exactly.
01:36:37.000 So I, you know, I've always supported Biden.
01:36:40.000 It's those... Unequivocally.
01:36:41.000 Absolutely.
01:36:42.000 I don't like the Republicans.
01:36:43.000 It's, you know, oh, the Democrats.
01:36:45.000 You know, Biden's earned my vote.
01:36:48.000 The wink.
01:36:50.000 All right, what do we got?
01:36:51.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
01:36:52.000 says, also, Tom McDonald's Superman really, really hits.
01:36:55.000 It slaps, huh?
01:36:57.000 It's a slap, huh?
01:36:58.000 It's a slap.
01:36:59.000 You kids and your fun lingo.
01:37:00.000 A banger.
01:37:00.000 A bop.
01:37:01.000 A bop?
01:37:02.000 Bop for hip-hop?
01:37:04.000 I don't know.
01:37:04.000 Somebody said that one thing.
01:37:06.000 You said bop, and now all I can think of is um-bop.
01:37:10.000 All right, you're sober.
01:37:11.000 You're doing this to yourself.
01:37:12.000 Jonathan Burnett says, this millennial is officially a homeowner.
01:37:15.000 Klaus and the WF can choke on my Roberto.
01:37:18.000 Chickens and a garden coming in spring.
01:37:20.000 Listen, listen, my friends, we have too many roosters.
01:37:24.000 Okay?
01:37:25.000 We got too many roosters.
01:37:26.000 We got a couple that are hilarious.
01:37:28.000 They have mutton chops.
01:37:29.000 I don't know why.
01:37:30.000 But apparently, like, one of the breeds we had, it's, uh, I can't remember.
01:37:33.000 Kim knows all this stuff.
01:37:34.000 But it's got, you know, mutton chops that come out.
01:37:37.000 And, uh, they're just really dumb.
01:37:39.000 So, we've built the suburbs of Chicken City because the city is expanding due to population growth, and, uh, Kim built a little shelter for them they don't use.
01:37:48.000 So it's raining, and they're all just huddled standing there in the rain, and there's quite literally a big shelter they could go inside of.
01:37:54.000 But they're dumb.
01:37:54.000 But we gotta give them away.
01:37:55.000 They're male.
01:37:56.000 They're gonna build their own shelter.
01:37:57.000 They don't need your help.
01:37:58.000 Yeah, so I think we gotta give a bunch away.
01:38:01.000 And so... I don't know, what are roosters worth?
01:38:04.000 Like 20 bucks or something?
01:38:05.000 But these are official Chicken City genetic lineage, you know, roosters.
01:38:11.000 So... I guess 20 bucks?
01:38:12.000 Is that... Yeah, 23 bucks.
01:38:14.000 20 bucks.
01:38:14.000 We gotta get rid of them though.
01:38:15.000 We were planning on bringing them to auction and just, you know, finding good homes for them.
01:38:19.000 But the only rule is you can't eat them.
01:38:22.000 Sorry.
01:38:23.000 Yeah, we are looking to sell to people who need a rooster for their flock so that it can have more chickens and more roosters.
01:38:29.000 And not to just eat.
01:38:31.000 So.
01:38:32.000 There you go.
01:38:34.000 I don't know how we... Just harass Kim on X. Oh yeah, you can tweet at Kim on X and just be like, I would like a rooster please.
01:38:41.000 Please, a rooster.
01:38:43.000 Kim's going to fire me immediately.
01:38:44.000 But she can tell.
01:38:44.000 She can tell if you've got bad intentions for these roosters.
01:38:47.000 She's like Santa.
01:38:48.000 She knows.
01:38:49.000 She has a list.
01:38:49.000 She has a list.
01:38:51.000 Alright, alright.
01:38:53.000 Mike Z's says, Thank you Tim and crew for all you do.
01:38:56.000 Since it's Friday, I thought I'd shout out my good friend Kieran.
01:38:59.000 She makes amazing artwork and is trying to influence culture by making her own video game.
01:39:03.000 Ashes to Ashlyn goes by Agent Kieran on Kofi.
01:39:06.000 What is Kofi?
01:39:08.000 Never heard of it before.
01:39:09.000 Kofi.
01:39:09.000 K-O-F-I, not Kofi, Kodashfi, for anyone interested in that.
01:39:14.000 Alright, Raybert G. Stanbert Jr.
01:39:16.000 says, Happy birthday Marines!
01:39:17.000 Drink responsibly.
01:39:19.000 I wonder if we're going to see anything going on in Charleston or anything in the area for Veterans Day.
01:39:24.000 I don't know.
01:39:24.000 Maybe like a reenactment of some kind.
01:39:25.000 Or I bet all the VFWs are packed.
01:39:28.000 Is Veterans Day a bank holiday?
01:39:29.000 Is it like an official federal holiday?
01:39:30.000 I think so.
01:39:31.000 It is?
01:39:31.000 I think so.
01:39:31.000 Yeah, because I was kind of like, oh, I wish that was on Friday or Monday.
01:39:34.000 Right.
01:39:34.000 Give us an excuse to be like, we out!
01:39:36.000 Some places do give you the Friday off if it's on a Saturday.
01:39:40.000 Oh.
01:39:40.000 Not here at Timcast.
01:39:41.000 We work all the time.
01:39:42.000 No, just kidding.
01:39:42.000 I like this job.
01:39:43.000 Well, they had the parades last weekend, so I didn't realize that it was... Yeah.
01:39:46.000 I thought all the celebrations were gonna be like that Monday or whatever.
01:39:49.000 Mm-hmm.
01:39:49.000 But then, you know, it's Saturday, so... True.
01:39:52.000 And there you go.
01:39:53.000 I'll get you some crayons, Raymond, and I'll make sure to get them to you stat, so... Crayons?
01:39:59.000 You can celebrate properly.
01:40:00.000 Yeah, Marines-y crayons is the old adage.
01:40:02.000 Logan Culver says, I can only imagine Phil and James Lindsay were screaming at their screens watching today's Culture War episode.
01:40:08.000 Commies always lie.
01:40:09.000 Well, so the one thing I can say is I really do appreciate Haas coming on and Trevor Loudon, of course.
01:40:16.000 It was a great conversation.
01:40:18.000 But things got heated when I made a comment about bourgeoisie, meaning the middle class.
01:40:23.000 It's a misconception that it means the ultra wealthy.
01:40:26.000 People say bougie and things like that, but the bourgeoisie was quite literally the middle class, people who had small businesses.
01:40:33.000 And then when I brought that up, Haas told me, no, it doesn't mean that.
01:40:37.000 And I was like, wait, what?
01:40:38.000 I'm like, that's... So I looked it up, and I'm like, it literally does.
01:40:42.000 And then he played the, well, according to Marx, what it means is, and I'm like, here we go.
01:40:46.000 If it's gonna negatively impact my argument, I will give you an alternate definition, which is typically what we see on the left.
01:40:54.000 We need Jackson and Phil on one.
01:40:55.000 We need it.
01:40:56.000 On the same one?
01:40:57.000 I think Phil also needs that.
01:40:59.000 It was supposed to be, and then Jackson didn't want to do it.
01:41:01.000 Yeah, true.
01:41:01.000 Jackson's gotta do it.
01:41:03.000 I'm gonna reach out to Jackson after this and say, debate Phil right now.
01:41:05.000 Okay, so Phil Labonte wanted to debate Jackson Hinkle, and then Jackson wanted Haas to come, and then Phil said, I agree to debate you, not Haas, so then Jackson didn't want to do it, but Haas still did, so we got Trevor to come on instead.
01:41:20.000 I think it's still a good show.
01:41:21.000 We're gonna make it happen.
01:41:22.000 We're gonna make it happen.
01:41:23.000 Yeah, I thought it was good.
01:41:24.000 I think it's good because, uh, the problem is, what, like, the roadblock in the cultural episode is, Trevor is saying, people aligned with the communist movement and the communist party are enacting these things.
01:41:36.000 And Haas's argument was, that's not communism.
01:41:39.000 And I'm like, Isn't that always the argument?
01:41:41.000 Right.
01:41:41.000 I'm like, hold on.
01:41:42.000 If you're sitting here making this passioned, idealistic, or real, he says, no, it's not idealistic, it's real.
01:41:48.000 I'm like, okay, fine, whatever.
01:41:50.000 If you're like, they're not real communists because they're not doing the things that communism is supposed to be, it's like, how come every time people who are communists try to implement it, it turns into this?
01:41:58.000 Every time.
01:41:59.000 Is it that no communists exist?
01:42:00.000 There's not a single communist anywhere?
01:42:02.000 Wasn't there a point where he was trying to like, remove Marx from the equation and say that it wasn't based on Marxism when then he was arguing stuff from the Communist Manifesto and different, because I remember that part specifically, I clipped it, the one where he was like, what is, what do you mean by work?
01:42:17.000 What do you mean by deeper?
01:42:19.000 Yeah, so I think the issue is I don't care for this, like, rebranding of communism.
01:42:24.000 It makes literally no sense.
01:42:26.000 I do agree with some of the idea of class struggle arguments.
01:42:32.000 The problem is cultural Marxism is absolutely insane and disrupts from those who are actually trying to create, you know, better systems for the people who actually produce.
01:42:40.000 I would love it If the workers of the world own the means of production, and you know what I mean by that?
01:42:48.000 It means that a factory is owned by a regular working class guy who built it up and earned that wealth and he has private and free trade ownership and market of all of it, no government intervention.
01:42:58.000 So for me, when I hear the workers own the means of production, it means the state doesn't own it and massive multinational oligopoly.
01:43:05.000 So basically how things were in America before corporatism took over.
01:43:08.000 Absolutely.
01:43:09.000 So it's private trade, private enterprise, with a strong and robust middle class.
01:43:14.000 That is what it means for the workers to own the means of production.
01:43:17.000 Because what the communists keep saying is the workers show the means of production, and the socialists say it, and I'm like, yes.
01:43:22.000 With a regulatory state that has final say, you don't own it.
01:43:25.000 So all that I hear is the communists argue No, no, we'll let you use it.
01:43:32.000 But I'm like, okay, then sign the deed over to the guy and let him have absolute control over his means of production.
01:43:38.000 Well, no, because then a single person owns it.
01:43:39.000 No, no, no, look.
01:43:40.000 If there are a million factories, and there are, you know, a thousand guys who own, or a million people who own each factory, and then a thousand workers at each factory, that's the workers owning the means of production.
01:43:57.000 The problem for me is centralization of power.
01:44:00.000 Be it monopolies, oligopolies, corporatism, communism, etc.
01:44:06.000 There we go.
01:44:08.000 Alright.
01:44:09.000 Ohio Man says, please, for the love of God and all that is holy, do not let Nikki Haley be Trump's VP pick.
01:44:14.000 I can't vote for Dick Cheney in heels, can't do it.
01:44:16.000 Nikki Cheney.
01:44:17.000 That's gonna stick.
01:44:18.000 That is going to stick.
01:44:19.000 They have to know this though.
01:44:21.000 Nikki Haley as VP is like, no way.
01:44:25.000 Nikki Haley anywhere near power is no way.
01:44:27.000 I think their relationship is too contentious.
01:44:29.000 I think their fighting has been too public.
01:44:32.000 I just hope Trump isn't feeling like he's in a let's rebuild some bridges kind of mood when he's making a VP choice.
01:44:40.000 At this point he should be in a let's burn some bridges mood with everything going on.
01:44:45.000 Trump-Carlson, 2024.
01:44:47.000 And then you can keep having Tucker do his show on X, too.
01:44:50.000 Just do both!
01:44:51.000 I do think the issue is, they want a VP who's gonna capture a different base.
01:44:57.000 That's understandable.
01:44:57.000 And that's why Nikki Haley seems...
01:45:00.000 I don't want that base, though.
01:45:01.000 Keep that base away from the GOP.
01:45:03.000 But you want to win!
01:45:04.000 I know, man.
01:45:05.000 No, I would love to see him pick, like I said the other night, Chris Kobach, like a really motivated AG who's doing something interesting, right?
01:45:11.000 There are other options.
01:45:13.000 We are just looking at sort of the headline people, but hopefully Trump has people around him who are looking deeper than that, seeing what people are actually accomplishing.
01:45:22.000 Nonpartisan Kitty says, this is what's wrong with our country.
01:45:25.000 It's always for the next election and never about getting things done now.
01:45:29.000 Yeah, it's always compromise.
01:45:31.000 It's like the Republican saying, look, look, I know you want to end omnibus spending bills, but let's just do this one right now, and we'll work on this, and then it never happens.
01:45:40.000 That's why Matt Gaetz was like, nope!
01:45:42.000 It's now or never, baby.
01:45:44.000 And in the end, I don't know if he'll actually get all of it done, but at least he's pushing, he's creating that pressure.
01:45:52.000 So, I'll take it.
01:45:54.000 All right.
01:45:55.000 Jeremy Love says, you guys are terribly misunderstanding what he is saying.
01:45:58.000 They are still gathering evidence and won't call it until they have everything.
01:46:01.000 No, no, no, no.
01:46:01.000 I totally understand that is what he's saying.
01:46:03.000 And the point is, he had said previously, we have the evidence.
01:46:06.000 We have this right here.
01:46:08.000 You can come and prove that it's not true.
01:46:10.000 Come into our committee, testify.
01:46:12.000 But we have the checks.
01:46:13.000 We have the documents.
01:46:13.000 We have the bank records.
01:46:14.000 And now it's, we don't have enough for an actual impeachment.
01:46:18.000 So, but I think it's political strategy.
01:46:21.000 I am not saying that he is saying this to betray the Republicans.
01:46:24.000 I think he's like, we don't want to impeach just yet.
01:46:26.000 We want Biden to roast.
01:46:28.000 We want the Democratic Party to take as much collateral damage politically over this as possible, and then maybe we'll deal with it later on.
01:46:34.000 And this is our path to slowing down the impeachment process.
01:46:37.000 Do you guys want to take bets on when you think they'll have enough evidence?
01:46:39.000 Take bets?
01:46:40.000 Take bets.
01:46:41.000 I think it's like November 14th of 2024.
01:46:43.000 Of when they'll impeach?
01:46:46.000 Of when they'll say, actually, we have enough evidence.
01:46:47.000 Because that's after the election.
01:46:49.000 Right after the election?
01:46:50.000 Yeah.
01:46:50.000 I mean, I think that's about it.
01:46:52.000 If I were going to roll something out, it would be afterwards.
01:46:55.000 Let him have 2024.
01:46:56.000 No, October 17th.
01:46:59.000 Interesting.
01:47:00.000 Good old October surprise.
01:47:02.000 Somebody write this down for me.
01:47:04.000 Let me actually check the calendar real quick.
01:47:06.000 Do you want a specific date in mind?
01:47:08.000 I'm gonna go with November 14th.
01:47:09.000 That's a Thursday.
01:47:10.000 It'll make the weekend more interesting.
01:47:11.000 I think they honestly won't even end up doing anything.
01:47:14.000 I think they'll just let it all slide.
01:47:16.000 October 24th.
01:47:17.000 Because that would mean the impeachment proceedings would begin and would not conclude until after.
01:47:22.000 So actually, actually, no, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
01:47:24.000 If the impeachment trial takes, um, how many days was Trump's?
01:47:29.000 It was like, what, like four days or something?
01:47:31.000 Wasn't that long?
01:47:32.000 So, uh, They'd want it to be... When's the election?
01:47:39.000 It's the 5th, right?
01:47:40.000 Yeah, it's November 5th.
01:47:42.000 So I think October 24th is probably the right date because then what happens is they're going to announce the 24th.
01:47:47.000 You'll get the next week, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and then they'll say, and then we'll come back for the formal vote on the 4th, which is just before the actual election.
01:47:56.000 It'll dominate the news cycle.
01:47:58.000 Yeah, Joe Biden's under impeachment.
01:47:59.000 So what they want is, with universal mail-in voting and early voting, they want to maximize the amount of time.
01:48:04.000 So theoretically, they could do something like, we're going to do two days of the hearing of evidence.
01:48:11.000 Starting on the 10th, they announce it, and say, this will begin on the 15th, our first preliminary hearing.
01:48:18.000 The 17th will be our second evidentiary hearing, and then we'll have the final evidentiary hearing on the 24th, and then it'll come to a vote on the 31st.
01:48:26.000 So this way, they draw it out as long as possible.
01:48:29.000 That way, the month of early voting, right up until the point of election, Joe Biden is facing intense scrutiny, the press is massively negative, and then right before the election, they say, he's impeached.
01:48:40.000 Yeah, that'd be interesting.
01:48:41.000 Then, the Senate picks it up, and they reject it, but election day's the 5th.
01:48:45.000 Carter, sir, do you want to weigh in really quick?
01:48:47.000 I mean, that would be a good strategy.
01:48:49.000 But no, you have to pick a date, that's the game.
01:48:50.000 Oh, the date.
01:48:52.000 No, I agree with Tim.
01:48:54.000 You can't just copy Tim's idea!
01:48:55.000 Sorry.
01:48:56.000 Serge, you want to play?
01:48:58.000 October 25th.
01:48:59.000 Okay.
01:49:00.000 You guys don't get this game at all.
01:49:03.000 But hold on, understand.
01:49:04.000 Are you saying they will vote to impeach, meaning the evidentiary hearings already happened?
01:49:09.000 I'm saying they'll announce they're bringing impeachment charges.
01:49:13.000 So on October 8th, Here's my 3% likelihood of happening scenario.
01:49:22.000 Very, very low because there's too many variables.
01:49:24.000 As of today, I would predict it's a Tuesday, October 8th.
01:49:27.000 They make the announcement.
01:49:28.000 They are going to begin the formal impeachment process, which will begin with evidentiary hearings in Congress so that members of Congress can hear the evidence.
01:49:36.000 The reason it'll be on the 8th is that Tuesday is press release day.
01:49:39.000 They want to maximize negative press.
01:49:41.000 It'll be on the 8th.
01:49:42.000 Then there will be bickering and backroom nonsense for the rest of the week.
01:49:46.000 They may say, we've had a few meetings, and then they might not do anything for us the week, to be honest.
01:49:54.000 On the 14th, they can say something like, we are now going to negotiate dates for the evidentiary hearings in the impeachment process before we decide to vote on whether or not we will impeach.
01:50:03.000 So these dates are going to be the 17th, the 22nd, and the 24th.
01:50:08.000 After the 24th, we will then give members of Congress a few days to go over the findings and backroom deals and conversations, which means perhaps on the 30th, a Wednesday, they could actually bring a formal vote to the House floor.
01:50:23.000 Now, they could theoretically move faster than this, but they have every reason to maximize the duration of the impeachment proceedings so that on the 30th, the formal vote happens, which means that's Wednesday.
01:50:35.000 Nothing on Thursday or Friday, and then Monday, it would have to move to the Senate rapidly, and they could even hold it and say, we have voted to impeach Joe Biden, the Speaker of the House will formally deliver the impeachment on the 4th, the Monday, giving us time to have conversations and discussions about how this is going to be done properly.
01:50:54.000 Then, it's one day before the election, and in the news, the impeachment is hand-delivered Or Democrats remove Joe Biden well before this happens.
01:51:04.000 What in October?
01:51:05.000 That would be crazy.
01:51:05.000 That would be great.
01:51:07.000 Well, look, look, look.
01:51:09.000 If they're smart, they do this.
01:51:11.000 But they're not very smart, are they?
01:51:13.000 To be fair.
01:51:14.000 But Tim just spelled it out for you.
01:51:16.000 No, no, no, hold on.
01:51:17.000 I don't know the deals that are going on in Congress.
01:51:19.000 I'm just kidding.
01:51:20.000 The restrictions, the limitations.
01:51:21.000 For me, it's very surface level.
01:51:23.000 Here's a very simplistic way you could draw this out and smear Joe Biden in October.
01:51:29.000 Somebody send this to Mike Johnson.
01:51:30.000 There you go.
01:51:31.000 Mike Johnson is like, Tim, stop telling everyone the plan.
01:51:34.000 The bigger problem is that Republicans probably don't actually want to do any of it.
01:51:36.000 And they're like, oh boy, I hope we lose.
01:51:38.000 Yep.
01:51:39.000 That's it.
01:51:39.000 And I honestly think that they will be torn on whether they should move now.
01:51:43.000 They have to get an alignment on why this timing is correct as opposed to something else.
01:51:48.000 This game also reminds me of when you guess, like, when your friend's baby is gonna be born.
01:51:52.000 You know what I mean?
01:51:53.000 I feel like- Everyone buy a square!
01:51:54.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:51:56.000 We should do a giant bingo game like that.
01:51:59.000 Hilarious.
01:52:00.000 Didn't we used to do them for the debates?
01:52:01.000 You guys did it a couple times.
01:52:02.000 Oh yeah.
01:52:02.000 Yeah.
01:52:03.000 It's hard to do though because you have to make a whole bunch of uniques.
01:52:05.000 It's State of the Union.
01:52:06.000 That's when you guys did them, I think.
01:52:09.000 All right.
01:52:10.000 Bitter Tune says, thanks for yesterday's shout out.
01:52:11.000 It was immensely helpful.
01:52:12.000 And I'm deeply grateful.
01:52:13.000 Well, thanks for the super chat, sir.
01:52:15.000 Yep.
01:52:15.000 Hell yeah.
01:52:16.000 What do we got?
01:52:17.000 Trent Lamalino says, is anyone at Timcast looking into what's happening in Africa?
01:52:20.000 I know it's not front page stuff, but there's a potential for conflict as the US, Russia, and CCP push forward here.
01:52:26.000 A bunch of coups that were organic as well.
01:52:28.000 Yep.
01:52:28.000 Sudan.
01:52:29.000 Sudan.
01:52:30.000 We talked a little bit about Sudan.
01:52:31.000 Sudan, Chad, Niger, Nigeria, et cetera.
01:52:34.000 All those different people.
01:52:35.000 It's a big story.
01:52:35.000 There's a lot of information there.
01:52:36.000 And yes, CCP is pushing a lot into Africa and almost every different nation of Africa.
01:52:42.000 And everyone can feel it.
01:52:44.000 Trust me.
01:52:45.000 We all know about it.
01:52:46.000 SM69 says, The Babylon Bee just put out an article showing Nikki Haley with a shocked face from the debate with the headline, Nikki Haley stumped when asked which countries she wouldn't invade.
01:52:55.000 That was a good one.
01:53:00.000 Yeah, but come on, it's an easy answer.
01:53:03.000 Is the Maldives a country?
01:53:05.000 No.
01:53:05.000 Yeah, the Maldives is a country.
01:53:07.000 It is?
01:53:07.000 But it's gonna be gone soon.
01:53:08.000 The water's gonna cover it up, so... Oh, okay.
01:53:10.000 I wouldn't... North Sentinel Island.
01:53:13.000 That's technically its own country, right?
01:53:15.000 Yeah, good luck.
01:53:15.000 You could say the Vatican.
01:53:16.000 That's a country, too.
01:53:17.000 Yeah, true.
01:53:18.000 Is it?
01:53:18.000 Oh, okay, there you go.
01:53:20.000 There's its own country.
01:53:22.000 Well, there you go.
01:53:23.000 I might support that one, though.
01:53:25.000 Go and dig down in those archives and see what they got.
01:53:27.000 Right.
01:53:29.000 What do we got?
01:53:32.000 Uh, Dallas Smith says, doubt you'll remember, but we met at the rally in Delta Park, PDX, after my boy Jay got murdered.
01:53:37.000 I was tacked out militia-style.
01:53:39.000 Keep killin' it, bruv.
01:53:40.000 By the way, I don't need my red-striped US gator.
01:53:43.000 I loaned you that day.
01:53:44.000 JK, keep it.
01:53:47.000 Oh, he's talking to me?
01:53:48.000 I was not in Portland.
01:53:50.000 Yeah, no, we could do that, because I know he's talking about Jay Bishop.
01:53:54.000 Delta Park in PDX after Jay got murdered.
01:53:57.000 He was tacked out militia-style, and he gave you a red gator.
01:54:00.000 Yes, I do remember you.
01:54:01.000 Thank you for that red gator, by the way.
01:54:05.000 After Night 100 in Portland, that's what got me to really start reporting on riots, was that video of Jay getting just straight up executed outside that parking garage.
01:54:12.000 And the ADL describes it as an Antifa activist who murdered a right-wing extremist.
01:54:17.000 Insane.
01:54:17.000 Absolutely insane.
01:54:18.000 So crazy!
01:54:19.000 If you look into Jay's background and stuff, Jay was a good guy.
01:54:21.000 I mean, and then you look at the dude that murdered him, quite the opposite.
01:54:24.000 Michael O'Neal, I mean, had the shootout.
01:54:27.000 These people, they will go as far as to murder people, as we see.
01:54:30.000 But that's really what sparked my interest in covering the riots, was after that video, I remember I had, I think it was like $400 in my bank account.
01:54:38.000 Booked a ticket, didn't even have a hotel at the time, and flew out to Portland.
01:54:41.000 I had 100.
01:54:42.000 I got the feet on fire clip, and then Trump retweeted it, and that's really what started my career.
01:54:46.000 But thank you for that, Red Gator.
01:54:47.000 I appreciate you, brother.
01:54:48.000 ChickenLady1980 says, Tim, please consider inviting Mark Dice to be on the Culture War podcast.
01:54:53.000 He just released a new book, The War on Conservatives, highlighting the culture war issues that we have today.
01:54:57.000 I'm on page 5.
01:54:57.000 Good read so far.
01:54:58.000 Mark Dice has a standing invitation.
01:55:00.000 An open invitation.
01:55:01.000 And he tweeted this.
01:55:03.000 He tweeted that he does, and it's just an issue of when he can fly across the country.
01:55:06.000 But Mark, we're all big fans, and we would love to fly you out at any time you want to come on the Culture War podcast.
01:55:10.000 And it'd probably be good to have Mark on the Culture War podcast in the morning with someone to debate, and then Friday night IRL to hang out and, you know, shoot the shit with the crew.
01:55:22.000 I already swore earlier, so I guess we're swearing tonight.
01:55:26.000 It's a wild Friday night.
01:55:27.000 Glenn Grimm says, shout out to Dakota.
01:55:29.000 He's seven years old and is actively kicking cancer's ass.
01:55:32.000 Join the fight.
01:55:32.000 Give, send, go, Dakota's Army.
01:55:35.000 His family is asking for any support and prayers.
01:55:37.000 God is good all the time.
01:55:39.000 Yeah, hell yeah.
01:55:40.000 Right on, man.
01:55:40.000 Good luck, good luck.
01:55:41.000 Keep it up, Dakota.
01:55:44.000 William Ubias?
01:55:48.000 Or is it Ubilis?
01:55:49.000 Ubias, I think.
01:55:50.000 I don't know.
01:55:50.000 Ubias?
01:55:51.000 Combat vet in need of major auto repairs.
01:55:53.000 Need motor rebuild or swap.
01:55:55.000 My only vehicle and no resources.
01:55:56.000 Job in jeopardy.
01:55:57.000 Can't go see my kid two hours away.
01:55:59.000 Give, send, go.
01:56:00.000 GBB35.
01:56:02.000 We here at SimCast are effectively a Craigslist.
01:56:05.000 Yeah.
01:56:07.000 Well, if you use GiveSendGo.
01:56:10.000 GoFundMe.
01:56:11.000 GoFundMe, yeah.
01:56:12.000 We don't do that.
01:56:13.000 Get out of here.
01:56:13.000 GiveSendGo only.
01:56:14.000 I mean, if someone doesn't GoFundMe, I'll just say, like, hey, you're on the risk of getting banned.
01:56:19.000 And so the problem is, people are like, will you donate to my GoFundMe?
01:56:21.000 I might, but they might just kick the money back.
01:56:24.000 All right.
01:56:25.000 Kane Abel says, Hannah, so which Target are you shopping at to know that these kits exist?
01:56:30.000 I'm kind of confused how you just happened to stumble on that stuff.
01:56:32.000 Busted.
01:56:33.000 I did walk through a Target recently.
01:56:35.000 I did not buy anything.
01:56:37.000 But yeah, it was weird with the Target boycott, which is that I live in a rural area and don't go to Target that often anyways.
01:56:45.000 Like I had gone maybe twice in the last year.
01:56:48.000 So it gets really easy to boycott things when you don't go, right?
01:56:51.000 If Walmart is more convenient, you go there anyways.
01:56:54.000 You know, I have progressive friends, I have normal normie friends who don't totally get it.
01:56:58.000 Shame.
01:56:58.000 Shame.
01:56:59.000 Occasionally they want to go through Target, but...
01:57:01.000 No, I have to shame my girlfriend every once in a while because she loves Target.
01:57:04.000 It's hard.
01:57:05.000 Whenever I hear her say Target, no, I'm not driving you there.
01:57:08.000 I will say, you know, it has been interesting watching the Walmart near me really up its game in terms of trying to be like, we're cute, we're fun.
01:57:15.000 They're trying to compete so hard.
01:57:16.000 I really respect it.
01:57:17.000 They're also paying more influencers, like just the normal influencers that I would like follow, who I don't know if Target really did this much, but I'm seeing a lot of like Walmart partnership push.
01:57:27.000 Hey, Walmart doesn't have insemination kits.
01:57:29.000 Were they really stepping up their game?
01:57:30.000 I don't know that for sure.
01:57:31.000 Or do they?
01:57:32.000 That's the thing.
01:57:32.000 I'm gonna Google it right now.
01:57:34.000 JTS says, You're right, Tim.
01:57:36.000 I was raised by a single father.
01:57:37.000 I definitely do better in discipline area, but have way less social skills than my single mom friends.
01:57:43.000 Interesting.
01:57:44.000 But it's interesting because if you have no discipline, are your social skills really gonna help you out?
01:57:50.000 You know what I mean?
01:57:51.000 Like, you need both.
01:57:52.000 Yeah, you do.
01:57:52.000 You need balance.
01:57:53.000 I think the issue is that with discipline, you can function and survive.
01:57:56.000 Without discipline, you're gonna struggle.
01:57:58.000 So even if you have discipline but no social skills, you'll figure it out.
01:58:02.000 But if you have social skills and no discipline, you're probably not gonna do so well.
01:58:04.000 True.
01:58:05.000 That's why we say, single fathers do better than single mothers.
01:58:09.000 I think there's something still missing from the picture, but survival's probably higher.
01:58:13.000 PollyPuree says, where is Ian?
01:58:14.000 I don't know, ask him.
01:58:16.000 He's gone.
01:58:17.000 Yeah, I don't know, he's gone.
01:58:18.000 He's vanished.
01:58:18.000 He's a vaper.
01:58:19.000 Just, just gone.
01:58:21.000 You guys don't like Carter?
01:58:22.000 That's gonna hurt his feelings.
01:58:23.000 Hey, he's here.
01:58:23.000 And he'll be back.
01:58:25.000 He will be back.
01:58:26.000 Neglectful Sausage says, we want young kids to date more, but we'll keep using the term creep.
01:58:31.000 Women are frightened of average-looking males.
01:58:33.000 Creep-shaming is how we got here.
01:58:34.000 I think the issue is that men are scared of women.
01:58:37.000 Like, not, like, it's not so much women, it's the fear of social pressure that they'll post your picture on the internet, call you a creepo, and all these things, when in reality, you should just not care.
01:58:46.000 Well, you've seen it with, like, the new gym trend of, you know, men literally just working out, and then they get called creeps, or labeled certain things.
01:58:53.000 Have you seen the morbidly obese woman being like, incels, they have like the neck beard and like,
01:58:58.000 you know, they're like Cheeto fingers and everyone's like- On the podcast and she's just drooping over her chair.
01:59:03.000 And people are like, yo, dude, you know, chill.
01:59:06.000 The thing about that video is most incels are average looking dudes who just don't understand
01:59:11.000 what to do because they don't have the social skills.
01:59:14.000 So I do blame the parents quite a bit, but it's like, yo, look man, there's the old trope of,
01:59:21.000 You know, how do you, how come you see a short, ugly guy with a beautiful woman?
01:59:24.000 He's brave.
01:59:26.000 Is he a movie producer?
01:59:27.000 It's all about talking.
01:59:28.000 Does he own a cracker factory?
01:59:31.000 It's not necessarily all talking, it's like... Beauty matters.
01:59:36.000 So, to a guy...
01:59:38.000 Physical beauty matters more than mental capability, but mental capability plays a substantial role.
01:59:43.000 This is found in all of the dating analysis.
01:59:46.000 The reason why guys tend to want women in their mid-twenties as opposed to an 18-year-old or younger is due to the fact that they want someone who's more mature.
01:59:56.000 I'd hope they wouldn't want somebody younger than 18.
01:59:57.000 No, no, you see, this is the scary thing.
01:59:59.000 The data found that in blind attraction tests, men rated 14-year-olds the most attractive.
02:00:06.000 Yeah, gross.
02:00:08.000 So when they show a picture to a guy and say, how would you rate this on a scale of 1 to 10?
02:00:13.000 The guys don't know the age or anything about the woman.
02:00:16.000 They would rate really, really high for very young women.
02:00:19.000 And that's why the models you see in magazines and in malls and lingerie stores, they're mostly like 15, 16 years old.
02:00:28.000 It's messed up, right?
02:00:29.000 That's demented to me.
02:00:30.000 How old is this study?
02:00:32.000 This might have been 10 years ago.
02:00:34.000 So what they found is actually guys are not attracted to 14 year olds.
02:00:38.000 They're attracted to 22 to 24 year olds and the reason is children are not smart and hard to be around and they will not provide for successful families.
02:00:47.000 But that's the only reason.
02:00:49.000 Well, I mean, look.
02:00:50.000 That's horrible.
02:00:52.000 Men find young girls to be physically attractive, but not worthy of starting families with.
02:01:00.000 My point is, ultimately, that it is gross.
02:01:02.000 It's kind of weird that that's what they found.
02:01:05.000 Ultimate attraction is not absolute physical attraction.
02:01:08.000 For guys, it was, are they mature and capable of being a good mom?
02:01:15.000 Physical beauty opens the door, but if the woman is not showing the capability to be a good mom, then attraction goes way down.
02:01:21.000 Like, obviously, we're not just like, well, you look good.
02:01:23.000 There are guys who are like that.
02:01:25.000 For women, it's more inverted.
02:01:27.000 Oh, being attractive opens the door.
02:01:29.000 But for women, it's more about status, capability, confidence.
02:01:32.000 And so, you know, if you're a dude, you absolutely don't have to be the tallest guy or the smartest guy.
02:01:39.000 Perseverance.
02:01:40.000 You know what I mean?
02:01:41.000 Yeah, that's what it's all about.
02:01:42.000 So my friends, what you can do right now.

02:03:04.000 It's just been great.
02:03:05.000 Let's go white men.
02:03:06.000 That's going to be a terrible joke.
02:03:09.000 Disavow.
02:03:10.000 Disavow.
02:03:11.000 Here comes the Media Matters article.
02:03:13.000 Disavow, except for most of what I said.
02:03:16.000 I'm Hannah-Claire Brimlow.
02:03:17.000 I'm a writer for TimCast.com until Tim fires me.
02:03:20.000 Fire, you get your own show now.
02:03:23.000 That's true.
02:03:24.000 I just talk about, let's go white men.
02:03:26.000 You heard it here first.
02:03:28.000 It's a new show we're launching.
02:03:29.000 It's called Why White Men Are Great.
02:03:30.000 Yeah.
02:03:30.000 Toasted by me.
02:03:31.000 No, I'm just kidding.
02:03:32.000 Can't wait to see it.
02:03:33.000 What was I talking about?
02:03:34.000 Follow at TimCastNews on Instagram and X. It's the best.
02:03:38.000 You can see work for me and all the other journalists.

02:03:48.000 Over to another white man.
02:03:50.000 White man Carter Banks here, make music here at TimCast.
02:03:53.000 We've got a really busy week next week coming up.
02:03:55.000 Filming a music video for a secret song also.
02:03:58.000 I think two music videos, right?
02:04:00.000 Yeah, two to three, maybe.
02:04:03.000 And then we got our first live performance coming up.
02:04:05.000 Not going to say who that is, but working on that in December.
02:04:09.000 I'm gonna start teasing it real quick.
02:04:13.000 I'm just gonna start teasing it a little bit.
02:04:16.000 One of the songs we're putting out, maybe the next one, maybe not the next one, we'll see, is what I would describe as a What do you call it when a guy keeps hitting on a girl but she keeps telling him to go away?
02:04:30.000 It's that, but for The Daily Wire and us.
02:04:33.000 I don't want to say we're working with The Daily Wire and a thing, but you'll understand when it comes out and it's going to be hilarious.
02:04:41.000 You're not the girl being hit on in this scenario, you're the man.
02:04:44.000 Stop making it sound so lame!
02:04:49.000 No, but what I want to say is we're not working with them, but there is a relation to the project, and they're excited for it, and I don't want to say too much, because I don't know the degree to which we will pull off a collaboration, but I just want to say, like, we have something that is basically done, we got to do the video for, that involves The Daily Wire, and whether or not they're in on it as well is going to be up to them, but I know, like, we've discussed things, so I don't want to call it a collaboration just yet, because they may just, you know, stand by and clap for us, but we'll see.
02:05:19.000 I'll be happy with the claps.
