Pfizer issues a formal response to Project Veritas and James O'Keefe. Plus, actor Zachary Levi tweets that he agrees with Bill Maher that vaccines are dangerous. And we have a guest on the show to talk about that and much more.
00:01:42.000It's just a big corporation that's been fined billions of dollars for being found guilty of criminal charges and allowed to continue operating.
00:01:50.000So we'll talk about all that, plus a bunch of really fun stuff.
00:01:53.000CNN, record low ratings, and apparently signing Bill Maher.
00:02:10.000And you also get access to exclusive, uncensored, members-only shows from the Tim Casserole Podcast.
00:02:17.000And we had Steven Crowder on recently.
00:02:20.000I would definitely recommend checking that out because he and I talk inside media baseball and just generally about our experiences with the media, the things they've offered us, what it's like, and that I think is really eye-opening and a bit evergreen if people are ever curious about how the media works.
00:02:34.000Among other things, I mean, a lot of jokes were had.
00:02:37.000But become a member and you'll be supporting us and our cultural endeavors.
00:04:24.000I mean, I saw them stripping my customers and my employees of our constitutional rights, and I wasn't going to be complicit in that.
00:04:30.000And the reason was I spent my entire adult life fighting dictatorships overseas, and I was not going to come home to my country and allow a dictatorship to rule.
00:04:39.000And then what disappointed me is that my Republican leadership in the state of Virginia did not step up and fight with me.
00:04:46.000And for that reason, I'm now running for state Senate in Virginia, and I'm coming to crush the establishment.
00:05:04.000We had an amazing weekend together, hanging out, healing, eating a lot.
00:05:08.000And also from the front of gaming news, if you haven't heard, Wizards of the Coast has gone back on their decision and plans to basically rip apart their old open gaming license and proprietize all their software.
00:05:21.000They were about to start taking huge chunks of percentages from people that were trying to make money off the D&D rule set, which had previously been made open.
00:05:27.000They couldn't even do it if they tried.
00:05:29.000Yeah, and they realized that 89% of the people were dissatisfied in their polls, so they just scrapped the whole plan.
00:06:46.000All right, here's the story from the Daily Mail.
00:06:48.000Pfizer admits engineering COVID mutants in lab studies to ensure its antiviral drug works on new variants, but PharmaGiant insists tests were not gain-of-function and did not pose risk to the public.
00:07:01.000I love this story, because we constantly hear this, where it's like, you know, the analogy I give is, you know, Dr. Fauci, is there a door on the building of the NIAID?
00:07:45.000You know, we did a show that day, but like, we didn't see this message come out literally the moment we go live, because we do pre-production about an hour before.
00:07:53.000But we're gonna make sure we get this story front and center on Monday, so that nobody forgets.
00:08:00.000Let me read for you what they say, because it'll make you laugh.
00:08:04.000Allegations have recently been made, is their statement, related to gain-of-function and directed-evolution research at Pfizer, and the company would like to set the record straight.
00:08:13.000The next paragraph you're about to hear is just patter to, like, make you not want to read it.
00:08:17.000They say, in the ongoing development of the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, Pfizer has not conducted gain-of-function or directed-evolution research.
00:08:24.000Working with collaborators, we have conducted research where the original SARS-CoV-2 virus has been used to express the spike protein from new variants of concern.
00:08:34.000This work is undertaken once a new variant of concern has been identified by public health authorities.
00:08:38.000This research provides a way for us to rapidly assess the ability of an existing vaccine to induce antibodies that neutralize a newly identified variant of concern.
00:08:46.000We then make the data available through peer-reviewed scientific journals and use it as one of the steps to determine whether a vaccine update is required.
00:09:05.000and global regulatory requirements for our oral treatment, PaxLivid, Pfizer undertakes in vitro work, e.g.
00:09:11.000in a laboratory culture dish, To identify potential resistance mutations to Nirmatrelvir, one of PaxLivid's two components.
00:09:21.000With a naturally evolving virus, it is important to routinely assess the activity of an antiviral.
00:09:26.000Most of the work is conducted using computer simulations or mutations of the main protease A non-infectious part of the virus.
00:09:34.000You see, at this point I'm reading it like, they're not saying they're engineering anything.
00:09:38.000They then go on to say, in a limited number of cases when a full virus does not contain any known gain-of-function mutations, such virus may be engineered to enable the assessment of antiviral activity in cells.
00:09:52.000Now they're just trying to play a legal game with me.
00:09:54.000Let's just break that sentence down and try and understand it.
00:09:58.000In a limited number of cases, when a full virus does not contain any known gain-of-function mutations, such virus may be engineered to enable the assessment of antiviral activity in cells.
00:10:11.000What they're saying is, when they engineer the cell, they need it to express mutations like they said they were checking for, so that they can see if their antiviral works.
00:10:50.000You're right, Tim, because when I read this, I also started to fall asleep, especially after that second paragraph where they're like, let us be clear about what we did.
00:10:57.000We did not do it, was the way they start off the first thing.
00:11:00.000But when they say that they've conducted research where the original SARS-CoV-2, let me get this below this image up here.
00:11:07.000has been used to express the spike protein from new variants.
00:11:12.000So the original SARS-CoV-2 virus has been used to express the spike protein from new variants. What does that mean?
00:11:19.000That just... The use of virus to express a protein in another
00:11:24.000It just sounds like what they're saying is when there's a new variant discovered, they take it and then they put it in a dish and, like, grow it so they can have the spike protein.
00:11:35.000That doesn't sound like gain-of-function or anything like that.
00:11:38.000It's the middle part of the third paragraph, well, second paragraph, where they're like, and in a limited number of cases, if the virus does not contain any known gain-of-function mutations, such a virus may be engineered.
00:11:48.000It sounds like they're saying engineered to have gain-of-function mutations.
00:11:51.000It does sound like they're saying that.
00:12:17.000Okay, man, I just... And you can see why they would think it's a good idea, right?
00:12:21.000You can see why they would think like, okay, we're gonna do research, we're gonna figure out, you know, we're gonna make the virus worse so that we can test our drugs and whatever else.
00:12:30.000You can see why they'd think it's a good idea, but that doesn't make it I disagree.
00:12:37.000I think the potential mutations of a virus have to be infinite.
00:13:01.000To me, it sounds like the quintessential CYA.
00:13:04.000They just spent a whole paragraph telling us they're not doing something and just slipped a sentence in there saying, psych, we're doing it.
00:13:12.000I was saying before the show to you, Matt, that like, I think the maybe even have like, you know, immunity from the CIA is like, go, you're gonna have to lie on this one.
00:13:20.000And you've got all retroactive immunity if it comes out that you were lying in the future.
00:13:23.000So I mean, it's public information that Pfizer's got immunity.
00:13:27.000I mean, and the reason they have immunity is because our politicians aren't the one running the show here, guys.
00:14:23.000Basically, super PACs, as long as they don't collude with the candidate, you can donate an infinite number of money and then they can say whatever they want.
00:14:33.000So what ends up happening is you get big corporations, they'll go to the candidate and say, are you the guy who's going to help our very important research save America?
00:14:44.000Cause we're looking to donate a lot to help that happen.
00:14:47.000And then the candidate will be like, well, I don't know nothing about that, but rest assured, I'm a big fan of Pfizer and them helping would sure would be great if I won.
00:15:30.000They're going to increase that portion of the federal government, get a whole bunch of researchers on there to do, you know, more stuff like this.
00:15:38.000All in the idea that they're going to cure cancer.
00:15:41.000I wonder how much cancer they make in labs, you know, that they're then going to try and cure it.
00:15:44.000Yeah, well, I mean, a high-acidity lymphatic system can cause the cells to duplicate at a rapid pace, which a lot of scientists call cancer.
00:15:52.000Like, if you don't alkalize your lymphatic system, you can feed people sugar and keep making medicine, and then you're doubling down on the profit, because not only are they buying your food, they're buying your medicine.
00:16:02.000I think that there's some value for Pfizer to be working on, I guess you'd call it, gain
00:17:08.000The food industry is for profit, so… Look, man, I've never been all about laissez-faire capitalism like Luke is.
00:17:14.000You know, he likes to come on and he just talks about how capitalism or free market solves everything and there's corporatism and things like that and the government actually intervenes to help major corporations win.
00:17:24.000It's not really capitalism, but I genuinely believe that if you have completely unrestricted markets, you're going to get seed oils.
00:17:32.000Like, this is my shout out to Luke Rudkowski of We Are Change.
00:18:10.000But like the tobacco industry used to have commercials for kids.
00:18:14.000They would target kids with Joe Camel and like they want you to start early and that was the Congress had to step in because the unrestricted capitalism.
00:18:23.000You're right about the drugs though and if you look at the data the number of kids and teens that are on Psych meds is incredibly high and a lot of the kids that are on psych meds are like vulnerable kids, like kids in foster care, a lot of boys are on psych meds and a lot of these kids are on medications that are not approved for their age group and they're on multiple drug cocktails that are not approved for their age group as well.
00:18:51.000I just want to say stink bugs are lucky that they're kind of cute and doofy.
00:19:42.000And the first job I got when I got out of the military, I was working at a hospital.
00:19:47.000And these pharmaceutical reps would come in and wine and dine these doctors and provide all of us, even us medics, you know, free lunches and such.
00:19:56.000And it's just insane to me how incentivized these doctors are to sell those specific products.
00:20:02.000And as far as the packs go, They may not be able to deal directly with a candidate, but everybody knows, you know, if it's two or three people removed, they get a hold of these candidates.
00:20:13.000And when Matt Gaetz was on the show just a few days ago, he told you guys, he said, the first thing you do when you become a congressman, when you get to D.C., is you sit down at a table with the people who are the leaders in the industry that you want to be on a committee.
00:20:29.000And that just shows you right there, it proves to you how corrupt politics are and it lets you know that these politicians that we get pissed off at and that we blame for all of these problems, they're not the ones running the show.
00:20:41.000It's these lobbyists and these PACs in the pharmaceutical industry.
00:20:45.000I mean, those guys are at the top of that food chain.
00:20:54.000what you were saying too about hospitals and pharmaceutical reps. When I finished college,
00:20:59.000I worked for a small medical office and I was doing insurance paperwork. That was my job.
00:21:06.000But these pharmaceutical reps would come in almost every day and they would bring lunch for the
00:21:10.000entire office and they'd just spill sample cases full of their drugs all over the place. And it's
00:21:16.000so weird. You're right. They used to target kids with tobacco advertising. And now, anytime you
00:21:21.000watch TV, there's half a dozen drug advertisements. And you listen to the list and my son and I will
00:21:27.000joke about it. He'll be like, oh, this drug for depression, mom, it cures your depression,
00:21:31.000but you might have increased thoughts of suicide. And it's like, oh, okay.
00:21:35.000Isn't that the opposite of what it's supposed to do?
00:21:37.000And you listen to it, and it's like, this will help you lose weight, but you might want to kill yourself.
00:21:41.000Or sleeping drugs, and it's like, you may forget that you got up and drove your car while you were on this drug, so be careful with that.
00:21:49.000And why are we seeing all of these advertisements for major pharmaceutical drugs that can make you think you're sleeping while actually you're driving your car?
00:21:59.000The best thing is when they don't actually tell you what the drug does.
00:22:04.000They're like, ask your doctor, and you're like, about what?
00:22:06.000Yeah, I remember seeing a commercial, I can't remember, y'all have probably seen commercials like this where it's like an old guy and he's like looking sad and it's like the color's gray and it's like, feeling down?
00:22:16.000Maybe Clovestal is right for you and then he's smiling and then he's like walking through a park and it's like, ask your doctor today about Clovestal.
00:22:25.000And the drug names are so bizarre, like Successra.
00:22:30.000It's the reason they made pill boxes, because you need a pill to remedy the side effects from this pill, and then you need another pill to remedy the side effects from that pill, and it just goes on and on and on, and that's why they created pill boxes.
00:22:43.000This one makes the pain go away, but also makes you want to die.
00:22:47.000This one makes you not want to die, but could also make you think about wanting to die.
00:22:50.000So then you have this one here that actually makes you forget what's going on so that you don't remember wanting to die.
00:22:57.000So back to the original pill, might have to double your prescription.
00:23:00.000You know, I think when the oxycodone epidemic in the 90s, late 90s, this is the oxy, this is the, this is what you would call the, what would you call it?
00:23:35.000Especially today with fentanyl, people have been dying from overdosing on fentanyl that they think is like a... I don't get the whole fentanyl thing.
00:24:33.000Let me tell you guys, it's, it's inside your body.
00:24:35.000It's not like, you know, you're going to the bathroom one day and you're like, there's something jammed up in, you know, my, my schlong or something.
00:24:41.000You're, you're at the doctor's and it, I would like, it's either appendicitis or like they thought it was appendicitis.
00:24:47.000And then I went in, like, pain in my abdomen, and they were like,
00:24:50.000yeah, it's your kidneys released like a small rock.
00:24:53.000And they were like, nothing we can do about it.
00:25:27.000So these doctors, they're just pushing this medication, just shoving it down your throat.
00:25:30.000Well, it's not only the medication, it's surgery.
00:25:32.000It's like at one point I hurt my back, like after my son was born, and I saw two doctors and they were like, you need back surgery.
00:25:39.000And I was like, no, no, I do not need back surgery.
00:25:41.000Well look at Hulk Hogan, he's paralyzed now.
00:25:43.000Yeah, we were just talking about it before the show, Hulk Hogan's paralyzed.
00:25:45.000I had a doctor, I went in because I was having trouble sleeping and she prescribed me sleeping pills which then gave me nightmares and I also couldn't sleep and then I bought new pillows.
00:25:54.000Like I literally bought new pillows and I didn't have an issue ever, like ever after that.
00:26:00.000You know, the reason I brought up the opiate crisis, and some people call it an epidemic, because, is, do you see what the Sackler family did to humanity for profit in the 90s and 2000s?
00:26:10.000So that's the example of what pharmaceutical companies- And their name is all over everything.
00:26:14.000I know, you would think at this point people would realize, oh, that family is demonic.
00:26:17.000I'm not like a good and evil kind of guy, I'm not that binary, but when you see pharmaceutical companies eradicating the population for profit, I gotta wonder if maybe they're evil or doing something wrong.
00:26:39.000So you would think people would be so awakened to the pharmaceutical company's attempt at profits that they would be eye-opening and gazing at Pfizer right now with a microscope.
00:26:48.000Well, what's weird is they came down so hard on tobacco, right?
00:26:52.000But they don't come down, they like praise the pharmaceutical industry for all that they're doing for humanity.
00:26:57.000And the pharmaceutical industry is getting all this federal funding.
00:27:03.000You know, hey, breathing and burning smoke obviously is bad for you, so that's an easy target.
00:27:07.000I mean, look at how much money we're paying up for that stuff with, like, all the COVID tests and all that crap.
00:27:11.000Considering we're ragging on these big pharmaceuticals, let's jump to this story from Fox News.
00:27:16.000Zachary Levy sparks Twitter controversy over claim that Pfizer is a danger to the world.
00:27:57.000Then they got fined again in 2009, and it was 2.3 billion dollars.
00:28:01.000And my question is, at a certain point, why don't you shut them down?
00:28:05.000You're committing crimes over and over again, you're done.
00:28:09.000When a human being commits a crime, we say we take you from your job, your job is no longer being done, we put you in a box, we close it, you can't go out.
00:28:20.000But if we're talking about a crime against humanity on the scale of 2.3 billion dollar fine, because they were selling off, you know, off... I can't remember exactly what they were doing, but they were like...
00:28:30.000Misleading the public as to what their drugs were doing or something like that.
00:28:33.000That lets you know how crooked it is because at my restaurant, if there was case after case after case after case of people getting sick after eating at my restaurant, I'd be shut down and there'd be no question about it.
00:28:45.000If you ran a company, if you were in a restaurant, And that restaurant was dealing drugs out of the back door.
00:28:52.000They would shut it down, every employee fired.
00:28:55.000I mean, it's like, sorry, this company's committing crimes.
00:29:10.000But when a pharmaceutical company does it, this is the reality of the world, they're too big to fail, so the government says, just give us a cut of the profit, and keep doing what you're doing.
00:29:18.000So for the record, Pfizer got fined $2.3 billion for misbranding Bextra, the drug Bextra, with the intent to defraud or mislead the attempt, essentially according to- What was Bextra for?
00:29:36.000They were selling it off-label, meaning that they didn't get FDA approval for the things they were selling it for.
00:29:41.000They had only had approval for the original thing.
00:29:43.000And actually, the FDA had declined to give it approval for the things that they were selling it for off-the-label, according to Justice.gov.
00:29:52.000A big, big, big mishandling of public trust.
00:29:55.000There's also a situation where there's this drug Lupron that's used for prostate cancer and things like this, and it's being used off-label as a drug to give children to block puberty for gender dysphoria.
00:30:11.000And it's also used for precocious puberty in like some cases, but it's only recommended for three months at a time.
00:30:18.000And so it's not FDA approved for use in children for more than three months for this extra purpose, this gender dysphoria purpose, but no one says anything about it and Lupron's sales continue to increase.
00:30:35.000They don't recommend the drug for that purpose, but they certainly just keep taking the money.
00:30:39.000This company, AbbVie, which makes a ton of drugs.
00:30:42.000This is how it works with big corporations.
00:30:44.000Typically, the government just says, look, give us our cut and you can keep doing it.
00:30:48.000A company does something that's illegal, makes $10 million.
00:31:15.000He was getting ragged on and attacked by the left.
00:31:18.000So he tweeted, just one example of what I'm referring to, and it's at justice.gov, the largest, what is it, largest healthcare fraud settlement in history.
00:31:26.000It's not anymore, I think there's a, was it GlaxoSmithKline's now the biggest, yeah, three billion something.
00:31:48.000Because they got a guy leading a movie who didn't say anything anti-vax, just said, hey man, be wary of these massive multinational corporations, they're dangerous.
00:32:33.000So he's a little kid and then he yells Shazam and gets struck by lightning and then turns into a big huge dude and it's it's fun and funny it was like the only DC movie that was actually a bit irreverent.
00:34:50.000And the city is trying to shut it down now and be like, no, we're only going to give weed licenses to people who were formerly incarcerated or, you know, on drug charges.
00:37:52.000And the first thing I just want to say is this is a story that I'm excited for you to tell because we've long told people Non-violent civil disobedience, stand up for what you believe in, file the lawsuits, file the complaints, make them work for their oppression or whatever, and you will win.
00:38:10.000They tried to shut you down, they hurt your business, they hurt you, but then in the end you ended up winning out.
00:38:16.000So tell us exactly what went down with your business, how that started.
00:38:20.000Yeah, well, so as soon as COVID started, I was actually at the at the time, I was still working as an intelligence analyst for the military, just to supplement my income, you know, because when you when you start a restaurant, you're not off to the races, you know, automatically making money.
00:38:35.000So when COVID happened in March of 2020, they shut my entire program down that I was working on.
00:38:42.000And I was working on a pretty intense, a pretty serious program that had a lot of national security implications.
00:38:50.000So when they sent all of us home and they shut the entire SCIF down, I paid attention and I said, well, this must be something serious.
00:38:56.000This must be a virus that's going to kill half the world, like they're saying.
00:39:00.000So I took it serious and I listened to the recommendations of, at that time, Governor Northam and I shut my restaurant down.
00:39:08.000Took a step back because I wanted to be responsible and didn't want to put my customers in harm's way.
00:39:13.000Nobody knew at that time what was going on.
00:39:15.000So it wasn't long after that, maybe a month or so, that I started to realize something weird was going on.
00:39:22.000And then three months after, June of 2020, Governor Northam said, OK, restaurants, you can open back up, but under these provisions.
00:39:34.000This is more about control than it is our health and safety.
00:39:38.000And it was because they put mandates in place like you have to wear a mask when you walk in the restaurant, but as soon as you sit down somehow you're safe from covid and nobody's allowed to sit at my bar, but I could pull the table up to the bar and you can sit there and my bartender couldn't hand a drink over the bar.
00:39:56.000My bartender had to walk around the bar and serve it to the person side-by-side.
00:40:01.000Just very arbitrary mandates that made absolutely no sense and so like I said I spent my entire adult life fighting dictatorships overseas and I wasn't going to come home and allow a dictatorship to rule.
00:40:13.000So I did the only thing I could do and that was fight back by not complying.
00:40:37.000And I operated that way actually from June of 2020 to January of 2021.
00:40:42.000I would get a call from the health department maybe once a month or so and they would say, hey Matt, we got a call from one of your customers that said you're not following COVID mandates.
00:41:11.000And it went like that until January 2021.
00:41:13.000Now, what happened in January was Biden took office.
00:41:18.000And when he took office, as you guys know, he started firing off all of these executive orders.
00:41:23.000One of those executive orders mandated OSHA come out in conjunction with local health departments and shut down restaurants specifically that weren't following COVID mandates.
00:41:34.000And that's when I got my first visit from the health department and OSHA.
00:41:39.000And they said, hey, Matt, you're not following COVID mandates.
00:41:58.000And what he told me is really what set the wheels in motion.
00:42:03.000He said, well, Matt, it doesn't have to make sense.
00:42:06.000The governor said you have to do it, so you have to do it.
00:42:09.000And at that point, I said, absolutely not.
00:42:11.000This is not how things work in America.
00:42:14.000And he said, well, we'll come back and we'll suspend your health department license.
00:42:18.000And I said, well, you do what you have to do, but I'm going to do what I know I have to do, and that is afford my customers their constitutional rights.
00:42:27.000And at that point I told him, I said, At this point, you were trespassing, so if you don't leave my property, I'll have you removed.
00:42:34.000And he left, but he made good on his promise and he came back about two weeks later, served me with the suspension papers, suspended my health department license.
00:42:42.000And in the state of Virginia, if your health department license is suspended, your alcohol license, your ABC license, is automatically suspended.
00:42:58.000And at that point I made a video and I put it out to the public what was going on and I let them know that I would not be complying.
00:43:06.000And the main reason is because, like I said before, I spent a lot of my time, a lot of my adult life fighting Overseas and I have a lot of brothers that went overseas with me and didn't make it back.
00:43:17.000A lot of guys have died over there and their kids are growing up right now here in the United States of America because they felt that America was more important than their life.
00:43:25.000So if I'm not willing to put my livelihood on the line when those guys are willing to put their life on the line, then what kind of man am I?
00:43:32.000And my wife and I, we always teach our kids to do what's right, no matter what the personal cost is to them.
00:43:38.000So how in the hell are we going to teach them that if we're not willing to do the same thing ourselves?
00:43:42.000So those are the main reasons why I fought back.
00:45:43.000Because they run around saying Democrats are ruining the country, and they are.
00:45:47.000But these Republicans that are sitting on their hands, not willing to step up and fight for you and me, they're no better than those Democrats.
00:45:53.000That's the establishment we talk about.
00:46:45.000So now, Ralph Northam is no longer the governor.
00:46:49.000We got a Republican governor, Republican lieutenant governor, and Republican attorney general.
00:46:54.000So I go before the ABC board, and it's a very liberal ABC board, and what they said was, in a nutshell, basically was, Matt, it doesn't matter that you beat the Department of Health, and that's the only reason we took your license.
00:47:05.000It doesn't matter that the reason they took it was unconstitutional.
00:47:08.000All that matters is we took it, and you didn't comply.
00:47:23.000And I immediately, as soon as Glenn Youngkin took office, I reached out to him and I heard nothing back from him.
00:47:30.000We all saw the video where you're filming and the ABC guys come in and the cops come in and they're raiding and looting your private property of alcohol.
00:47:44.000Yeah well the reason they came out and raided my place is because like I said I was reaching out to the governor since he took office and by that time I announced my run for state senate to come crush the establishment and Republican leadership they don't like when a Republican candidate speaks out against other Republicans but I have no idea why.
00:48:02.000You should speak out against any politician that's not doing their job.
00:48:05.000So for that reason They didn't reach out and help me.
00:48:08.000They left me to the wolves, and I heard nothing back from the governor's office or the attorney general's office until December 2nd of 2022, this past December, when the Virginia State Police and the Virginia ABC agents came and raided my restaurant and took every drop of alcohol out of my restaurant.
00:48:28.000Well, so that's the viral video that you guys saw.
00:48:32.000And so what happened after that is We were going back and forth and they were trying to settle with me, but I've always stayed strong in my stance in that I will not settle with you.
00:49:43.000After I reopen my restaurant for Christmas, because I'll be closed for Christmas, when I reopen after Christmas, I'm gonna open my bar back up, and I'm gonna sell alcohol, and I'm operating business as usual.
00:49:55.000And magically, before I close for Christmas, December 23rd, and I told him, I said, hey listen, if Glenn Youngkin and the rest of the Republican leadership in Virginia, if you guys are ready for the political shitstorm that follows you arresting A small business owner who's also a veteran that fought for his country.
00:50:14.000If you're ready for that political shitstorm, I'm ready to go to jail.
00:50:17.000Because a lot of my brothers were ready to die for this country and they did.
00:50:20.000So, I've been ready to die for my country since I was 17 years old.
00:50:23.000So, I'm damn sure ready to go to jail for my country.
00:50:26.000So, at that point, it was a Mexican standoff, man.
00:52:40.000What my story proves, what it proves is that if you stand up and you fight back, no matter how much they try to back you into a corner and bully you, if we stand together, because I wouldn't have won this by myself.
00:52:52.000If it was just me, Matt Strickland, fighting, I'd be in prison right now.
00:52:56.000But the people of America stood with me from across the nation.
00:52:59.000I mean, they came out of the woodworks and supported me.
00:53:02.000And the only thing that politicians The only thing that they answer to is political pressure.
00:53:09.000And I mean, everybody knows Glenn Young is trying to run for president now.
00:53:12.000And so they inundated his office with emails and phone calls.
00:53:15.000He couldn't make a social media post without somebody jumping on his post saying, hey, what about Matt Strickland?
00:53:23.000And they caved to that political pressure.
00:53:25.000They didn't want to help me because I stand up against not only Democrats but Republicans also.
00:53:30.000But the political pressure was enough from across the nation that they had no choice but to act.
00:53:36.000I think part of what's What's great about the story is, too, you were willing to comply in the early days, in the very beginning, when you didn't know if it was airborne Ebola, where people were gonna, their skin was gonna start melting off.
00:53:47.000You didn't know, and you were ready to make the sacrifice for the betterment of the people.
00:53:50.000And then when the evidence starts coming in, then it's like, okay, now realism and common sense takes over.
00:54:19.000You were supposed to put it back on to walk to the bathroom.
00:54:21.000We had a plan here we never got around to, because, you know, and West Virginia was fairly lax, and then they ended up lifting it, but what we wanted to do was get full hazmat suits, walk in, sit down, take the full suit off, Or like, go to your table, take the full suit off, place it on the chair next to you, sit down, order food, and then go, I'm gonna run to the bathroom real quick.
00:54:39.000Put the full suit back on, zip it up, and then walk slowly and awkwardly.
00:54:46.000It's like, there's that comic where the person's walking and the COVID virus hits them in the face, and then it shows them sitting down with like a check mark.
00:54:52.000And it just goes right over their head.
00:54:55.000And it's interesting, too, how you talk about how it was June 2020 that they said you could open your restaurant again, and they hit you with all of these arbitrary arbitrary restrictions of what you had to do in your
00:55:30.000I mean, it's funny you guys say that because, of course, I was trashed online for not following COVID mandates and people who have never met me a day in my life We're saying all kinds of things about me, and somehow, just because I didn't make people wear a mask when they walked into my restaurant, I was racist.
00:57:19.000Looking back over the last couple years for yourself, is there anything that you would have done or would have changed in the process?
00:57:26.000I know it seems to have turned out extremely well, but for people in the future that are willing to stand up to create civil disobedience, is there anything that you can help with?
00:57:37.000Yeah, well, first of all, what I would have done earlier is pay attention to politics.
00:57:43.000I did not pay attention to politics like I do now.
00:58:42.000Remember the guy on the beach or whatever?
00:58:43.000Oh, he was arrested for surfing by himself.
00:58:45.000Remember the video where the guy's jogging on the beach and the cop chases after him and the jogger just speeds up and just bolts and the cop can't catch him?
00:59:26.000And I would tell each and every one of them, if you believe in what I'm doing, the best thing you can do to support me is do the same thing.
00:59:32.000And they would all say the same thing.
00:59:36.000But I don't want the health department breathing down my neck, man.
00:59:38.000And I said, listen, with that attitude, they're going to be breathing down your neck the rest of your life, man.
00:59:44.000Well, wasn't that the shocking thing, too, was how many people just did comply?
00:59:48.000I found that so stunning how many Americans just sucked it up and did what they were told, and I found that extremely disappointing for my fellow countrymen to watch them just, like, capitulate and do what the government told them to do.
01:00:02.000It's like, that's not what we're founded on.
01:00:04.000We're founded on telling the government exactly that we're not going to do what they tell us to.
01:00:08.000I feel like video games has made people really Willing to comply, because in a game, there's a structure and a set of rules that you cannot bypass.
01:00:15.000You're stuck within this realm of, like, if-then.
01:00:19.000But in reality, you have complete freedom.
01:00:21.000You can go anywhere, see anything, interact with anything.
01:01:01.000And it's crazy to think about, that's, for a lot of people that were leaving Europe and coming to emptiness, conflict, and death, it was because it was better than having the government live, to live with the government's boot on your neck.
01:01:15.000I actually just showed my son the other night the movie Brazil.
01:01:56.000But the other thing that you were talking about in terms of the COVID restrictions and how that was used, and these restaurateurs are going to have the government breathing down their necks the rest of their lives.
01:02:05.000There's a lot of officials around the world, not necessarily in the US, although I think probably in the Biden administration there are, who see a lot of this COVID lockdowns and restrictions almost as a blueprint of how they can coerce the population into submitting to climate change mitigation measures.
01:02:25.000The German health minister was talking about this a year ago, and I think, you know, Jack Posobiec was fact-checked for saying that this was happening, but it actually was happening.
01:02:36.000And they say things like, you know, the kind of restrictions that we used for COVID, we can ask people to do that to mitigate climate change.
01:02:44.000We can ask corporations to tell their workers to work from home.
01:02:48.000We can ask them not to take business trips, not to travel as much as they would like to curb this climate thing.
01:02:53.000So yeah, I mean, they're going to use these same methods over again, you know, they're going to use it for whatever new crisis they come up with.
01:03:01.000And what we see from the left, what we see from Democrats is a willingness and insistence to rule us based on crises.
01:03:09.000I don't even know if it's... It's always a crisis.
01:04:47.000Dealer gives you two cards, there are three cards on the board that everybody shares, and you gotta pay every time you wanna see the next card, hoping that you get a good enough hand to win your bet.
01:04:56.000It's like, if you get a pair of jacks or better, you win money.
01:05:01.000If you know what your cards, the cards the other players have, your odds increase.
01:05:06.000So you go to the casino and then everybody's forced to show their cards.
01:05:11.000It's like you're teaching a kid how to play.
01:05:13.000That's how you teach a kid to play, is everyone shows their cards.
01:05:15.000I'm like all the gamblers, right, but you're walking and you're looking down and you're like, okay, this guy's got an ace, I got an ace, there's no ace on the board I fold.
01:05:21.000And so these businesses were complying with policies that made no sense Stopped nothing, hurt them substantially, but everybody was just for it.
01:05:30.000But here's the point I wanted to bring up, aside from that insanity.
01:05:33.000They shut down large portions of the casino, and they've never reopened them.
01:05:56.000Yeah, they have a horse race every 15 minutes, and it's a minute-long thing, but you get some food, you get a beer or whatever, you bet a dollar on the horse with the silliest name, and then you hope it wins, and then you win like $1.50 or something.
01:06:15.000And it was funny because we were there with Shane Cashman and Nancy, his wife.
01:06:19.000And he bet on this one horse called like, what was it called?
01:06:23.000Like American, American Pride or something or American Patriot.
01:06:27.000And when we were looking at the horses going around, like they're doing the walk-up, I mean the warm-up, his is going sideways and like fighting.
01:07:49.000How is it that we still have a shortage of workers, nobody wants to work, but there's, I mean, well, hold on, Ian, you pointed this out, a lot of homeless people.
01:07:57.000Yeah, a lot of them are on the street.
01:07:58.000I don't have proof that those that got fired from their jobs are the ones on the street.
01:09:17.000You never go there thinking you're gonna win money.
01:09:19.000I'm not talking about going and being like, oh boy, I'm gonna take my rent money and bet it, and then... No, no, no, you don't do that.
01:09:24.000You get a hundred bucks or whatever, and you say, we're gonna just play some fun games, minimum bets, just for the fun and excitement, then have some food and go home, and it's like going to the arcade.
01:09:33.000You're spending a hundred bucks on games, no different than if you went to an arcade and put a hundred bucks in your chip machine so you could play tokens with your kids or something.
01:09:39.000But there are people like Mr. Beast who cured a thousand people's blindness.
01:10:11.000There's a, they, this, I don't know if this casino is still, they have a credit window but it's closed, but like National Harbor's got a credit room.
01:10:17.000You go in there, people are gambling away things they don't have.
01:10:20.000I pulled, I went to the ATM and there was a receipt hanging, I picked, I pulled it out and it said withdraw $100 of total available balance, negative $300.
01:10:29.000Meaning, yikes, they likely had just gotten paid withdrew from their paycheck, but their account was
01:10:36.000previously negative, so it didn't roll over.
01:10:38.000Trying to win back the fee that it's going to charge them for taking out overdraft.
01:10:46.000I don't know, but I mean, I'm not a conspiracy theorist.
01:10:52.000I don't buy into these conspiracy theories, but I do truly believe that the government at large, they do not want a prosperous middle class.
01:11:04.000And I do believe that one of, I'm not saying the reason for COVID was to kill small businesses, but I do believe that it's one thing that did happen.
01:11:13.000And at the very least, the government saw it happening and accelerated that process.
01:11:18.000Because small businesses were absolutely just ravaged during the pandemic.
01:11:23.000Well, there was a thing early on in, I think it was Lansing, Michigan.
01:11:27.000It was like, I think it was April of 2020.
01:11:32.000Anyway, it was like right early on and a whole bunch of small business owners went to the Capitol in Lansing to protest Gretchen Whitmer and be like, hey, you need to let us open up our nail shops and our hair salons and all of our little businesses.
01:13:16.000And so that what that does is it eventually it destroys small businesses because restaurants, that's the biggest industry as far as small businesses go in America.
01:13:26.000There was a little barbecue stand not too far from where we are.
01:13:30.000It's where West Virginia meets Virginia.
01:14:13.000So now when businesses have to double their prices to keep up with the people that they have to pay to work, now you as the middle wage earner, the $60,000, the $150,000, now you're poor.
01:14:25.000So we lifted the minimum wage and now the teenagers are getting paid a lot more money.
01:14:29.000But now you, the person that needs to take care of a family, now you are doing nothing but getting poorer and it's killing the middle class.
01:14:46.000This happens with minimum wage increases as well as what happened with UBI.
01:14:51.000You're a business and you have to pay, whether it's because by government mandate or by environmental pressures, 15 bucks an hour, you're raising your prices, end of story.
01:15:01.000So for like UBI, you tell everybody you get 500 bucks per week guaranteed.
01:15:06.000Then one day, all of your employees quit.
01:15:09.000All of your stockers and cashiers quit.
01:15:12.000And you're like, well, why are you quitting?
01:15:13.000And they're like, I get 500 bucks a week for free.
01:15:20.000In order to compete with a free $500, you gotta understand this.
01:15:25.000We're not just talking about the amount of money I got at the end of the week.
01:15:29.000We're talking about the equation of how much work do I have to do for how much reward.
01:15:35.000If the amount of work I have to do for UBI is fill out a form one time and then I'm done, we're talking about $500 per week for the rest of my life, add that up for one minute of work.
01:15:47.000Do you think your 40 hours of work for even $600 comes close?
01:15:53.000People are gonna say, I would rather eat out less, but not have to work at all.
01:16:00.000If you're doing UBI or free 500 bucks, or let's say it's even 100 bucks, $100 to a young person, they're gonna say, $400 a month, I'll split that money with my buddy, we'll get a studio apartment and live for free, and then I'll figure out the rest, but now I don't have to have a job at all.
01:16:18.000And if you then say, we'll give you $100 a week if you do this job, that way you're getting twice as much, they're gonna be like, yeah, but I have the minimum I need, and I don't have to work, so I'm not going to.
01:16:41.000It's an exponential increase in the amount of money you have to offer, because you're not actually offering them money, you're offering them 40 hours more work they don't have to do if their needs are met.
01:16:50.000And that's going to bankrupt not only the economy, but it'll bankrupt society, because there won't be any innovation.
01:16:56.000Well, who's all for these minimum wage increases?
01:16:59.000These big corporations, the ones that fund these politicians' campaigns.
01:17:04.000Well, and then they can put the small businesses out of business.
01:17:10.000How can I compete with Walmart, who a teenager can just go there And stock shelves and by the way, put their AirPods in and not have to deal with any customers and listen to music while they're stocking shelves and make 18 bucks an hour.
01:17:25.000And Walmart can afford that because now they have like a 50% reduction in workforce because they don't even need cashiers anymore.
01:17:36.000So I cannot even tell you how much I hate self checkout.
01:17:40.000Like I have a job and now I'm doing this and I was at the thing the other day with my kid and we like bought some stupid crap shelf that then I had to build myself, you know,
01:17:50.000because I can't even buy anything that's put together.
01:17:52.000And we put it on the, I'm like, okay, we have to try and get it on the scanner.
01:17:56.000You know, it's this whole undertaking of engineering project, and we don't even realize
01:18:00.000that there's like a glass sitting there that I had already paid for, a little toothpaste cup.
01:18:05.000And the whole thing, the shelf smashes into the glass.
01:18:37.000And then there's another video, I don't know if you saw it, TikTok, where a woman says she's paying her bills at Whole Foods, her checkout, with her palm.
01:18:45.000What, because she has like a RFID chip for her bank account?
01:18:47.000No, you go up to a machine and you put your credit card in it, you then hold your hand over it, and it scans your hand, and then you take your card out, and now your handprint is connected to your card.
01:18:58.000So when you're buying your groceries, this is at Whole Foods I think it was, you walk up and you just hold your hand over the thing, it goes bong, and then you walk right out.
01:19:08.000Recently I moved out of New York, and part of it was like, I don't want this encroaching You know, overtaking of my body and soul and mind and identity to, like, go to all of this stuff.
01:19:19.000We're very close in New York to having the thing where you put your hand scanner on just to ride the subway.
01:20:18.000The plan is to implement this at Whole Foods.
01:20:19.000That's what they're doing, the palm scanner thing.
01:20:22.000Whole Foods, during the pandemic, I went in and I tried to get them to make me a sandwich, and they said, no, they can't make me a sandwich because of the stupid, arbitrary garbage rules.
01:20:30.000And, uh, they were like, no, but we have sandwiches made here.
01:20:33.000And I was like, didn't you make those?
01:20:36.000I'm like, okay, so you can make a sandwich with your COVID germs, wrap it up in plastic and put it here.
01:20:41.000But, and I could buy that, but you can't make a sandwich now and wrap it up in plastic and hand it to me so that I have the sandwich I want.
01:20:47.000And the thing is that no matter how much... Gore melts cans.
01:21:05.000The problem with society is we're too comfortable.
01:21:08.000And people are willing to blindly comply because they have A.C., they have heat, they're able to pay their bills, they can go grab a coffee from Starbucks when they want, and as long as they can do those things, they will gladly hand their rights over to the government.
01:21:24.000Well, I gotta tell you, man, look, look, look, I know I'm not a big fan of Starbucks, but let's be honest, that pistachio cold brew cream thing, that's so good.
01:22:28.000It should be from when you're a kid, your parents take you out to go exercise, and it becomes a routine that you enjoy doing, that you push yourself and you succeed at it, and it feels good to do those things.
01:23:54.000But I believe the bigger issue is the inactivity.
01:23:58.000And I think it proves it because, you know, in the 90s, we had a We had the same foods that we had today and it was just as shitty but the obesity wasn't as rampant because we were doing things.
01:24:09.000We weren't sitting in a dark room playing video games or sitting at our phone and just our friends are just at our disposal right here on our phones.
01:24:17.000We had to actually Go outside and interact with them.
01:24:20.000I used to have to go to the store to shop and go to the bank to get money.
01:24:24.000Now, I bought like 20 things on Amazon in the last four or five days from my room.
01:24:50.000We had to, like, do a drive-thru with, like, a little hydraulic thing and you'd—whatever.
01:24:54.000You had to interact with somebody to cash a check to get your money.
01:24:56.000I mean, I think you're completely right that the lack of socialization is driving this.
01:25:00.000Also, I think that the opiates are heavily involved with the lack of socialization, but— Oh, no doubt about that.
01:25:06.000I mean, but the bottom line is, it goes back to we're just way too comfortable in today's society.
01:25:12.000And the video that I filmed live when those police officers came into my restaurant and stripped my livelihood from me, that's the message I was trying to get across to them.
01:25:28.000What I was telling them is what they specifically were doing was wrong.
01:25:33.000And I don't give a damn what your profession is.
01:25:36.000If you're a police officer, if you're a teacher, if you're in the military, if you're a small business owner, if you're complicit in stripping a citizen of their constitutional rights, you are wrong.
01:25:48.000And I know for a fact, That at least one of those officers that day felt bad about what he did because he had a friend come into my restaurant afterwards and tell me such.
01:25:58.000And, uh, but the reason he did it is because what?
01:26:03.000Because he didn't want to lose his job because he, he wanted to maintain his benefits and he wanted to have a paycheck coming in so he can provide for his family.
01:26:11.000And on one hand you ask yourself, well, what can you blame him?
01:26:15.000But then on the other hand, the answer is, well, the only reason this is going on is because Of people like him that are willing to be complicit in things that are illegal and unconstitutional to be comfortable.
01:26:27.000Now, if every police officer involved in that situation would have stood up and said, this is unconstitutional, I'm not doing it, then it wouldn't have happened.
01:26:38.000It would have been way easier for me to comply and just go along with what they were telling me to do.
01:26:44.000And I wouldn't have lost, you know, six figures.
01:26:47.000I wouldn't have had the stress put on me and my family that was put on me.
01:26:51.000But there's things that are bigger than you and there's things that are more important than you and your business and your money.
01:26:58.000And my mindset was always, if I lose everything, if everybody in this entire country stands against me for what I'm about to do and I lose it all, Well, I'm a hard worker.
01:27:07.000I'll bust my ass, and one way or another, I'll provide for my family, and I'll be okay.
01:27:12.000But, if I give up my freedoms, I'll never get that back.
01:27:15.000And that's what I want people to understand and remember next time, is that if you refuse to stand up and fight for what's right, just so you can keep the comfortability of your daily life, then you're gonna lose something much greater.
01:27:31.000And those are your constitutional rights, and those are your freedoms.
01:27:34.000And I just don't know how to get that across to people, but I hope that my story and my situation, I hope that if nothing else, what it proves is that if you do stand up and you do fight, the people will rally behind you and you can beat the government and you will beat the government.
01:27:51.000And we are bigger than the government.
01:27:53.000We are stronger than the government because we are the government.
01:27:56.000Well, and once you give away your rights, that's your kids' rights, too.
01:28:09.000Mainly for my kids, and for the next generation, because if we don't, you and me, if all of us here in this room, if our generation doesn't step up and take this fight on right now, and not only take it on, but win, and we just hand this fight over to the next generation, by the time they're old enough to fight this, it'll be too far gone.
01:28:29.000Well then they'll be squashed already.
01:28:31.000I've got a feeling the next round of shutdown government stuff is going to be for power outages.
01:28:38.000If the grid goes down for two weeks, then our phones are off, people are trying to figure it out, the government starts coming around saying, we're going to take control, don't leave the house, don't leave the house, don't leave the house.
01:28:48.000They're not going to do that until they make us all have electric cars.
01:28:51.000They're going to wait till we all have electric cars, then we can't go anywhere either.
01:28:54.000I don't know if they're going to cause it or if it's just going to happen.
01:28:56.000But if that's a situation where it's like, don't leave the house, don't leave the house, what do we do?
01:30:03.000I mean, being self-sustainable is the most important thing, but I'm telling you guys right now, and I hope this doesn't come across as too politician-y, but I am running for office right now, but I am the furthest thing, even in this room, from a politician, man.
01:30:21.000But I'm telling you guys, you need to start paying attention to state politics.
01:30:24.000These federal elections are not where you make your money.
01:30:54.000The most important thing, guys, the most important thing by far, and even if you don't believe that, and we were talking about this before the show, Even if you don't believe that any election was stolen or any of that, elections are not secure.
01:31:07.000In the state of Virginia, you can go vote without showing an ID.
01:31:10.000You tell me how elections are secure when you can do that.
01:31:28.000I'm going to tell you how, and not a lot of people know this, so check this out.
01:31:32.000In the state of Virginia, and in many other states as well, as an illegal alien, As an illegal immigrant, you can get a driver's license at the DMV, a valid driver's license, right?
01:31:44.000So, our voter rolls, they come from the DMV.
01:31:48.000And they go, so how our voter rolls get handed down to the Office of Elections.
01:31:52.000Wait, it's like an auto register, right?
01:32:10.000So what Eric does is it reaches down to the DMVs and it says, hey DMV, We want all of your information from all of the people in your state that are of legal age to vote.
01:32:23.000So the DMV sends them all that information.
01:32:25.000Now, illegal immigrants are in that batch because if you look in the bylaws of Eric, it doesn't hide it from you.
01:32:31.000It says in the bylaws of Eric, it says, hey DMV, you are not allowed to tell us who is a citizen and who's not.
01:32:42.000And so what happens is Eric sifts through that information and sends the voter rolls down to the state level and it says, this is everybody in your state that's allowed to vote.
01:32:53.000And illegal immigrants are included in that.
01:32:55.000And the answer to you as to why, you know who funded Eric?
01:33:06.000So George Soros is running your elections.
01:33:08.000And if you think any of that is a lie, Please do the research.
01:33:12.000We're gonna go to Super Chats, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share this show with your friends, and become a member at TimCast.com.
01:33:20.000Click that Join Us button over there, and we're gonna have a members-only uncensored show coming up for you in about an hour and 20 minutes, hour and a half or so, Monday through Thursday at 8 p.m., but for now, we will read what y'all have to say in those Super Chats.
01:33:34.000We got Grofties has pecked the like button, buck buck, greatly appreciated, greatly appreciated.
01:33:40.000MoralObjection says, been really quiet on TimCast about the whole Eliza Blue situation.
01:33:45.000You'd think real journalists would want to know why Twitter is censoring prominent content creators on her behalf.
01:33:50.000Not only do we have a journalist currently being funded to go out and cover the story, but um...
01:33:59.000Well, I mean, I guess I should say that.
01:34:01.000We quite literally have a guy flying on a plane, going to meet all the people involved, and interview to figure out what's going on and do an investigation of it.
01:34:09.000And I gotta be honest, like, everybody's, like, spamming the chat and spamming the super chat, demanding that we talk about this one issue, and it's just like, I don't know if you guys follow the show, but we never cave.
01:34:22.000Like, the pre-production isn't dictated by what the things in the chat are, like, The hour before the show, we pull up all the stories.
01:34:29.000We don't then have a whole bunch of people start chatting to us, and then we say, oh, hey, let's throw out all the stories we already planned for, and then not have anything pulled to talk about whatever.
01:35:38.000I just know that there's something going on here and that the quartering, a very prominent personality talking about culture and news, was suspended.
01:35:47.000Talking about this video, so I'm curious to see how it turns out.
01:35:50.000Simply put, when I saw that everybody wanted something done about it, I went and talked with Shane Cashman.
01:35:58.000He wants to do a full profile on this whole thing, and I was like, it's probably the best and most effective thing we can do.
01:36:05.000Other than having Jeremy come on the show, so it's like, I don't know what else y'all want from me, my friends.
01:36:31.000If you want to see it talked about, We gotta fly Jeremy out.
01:36:35.000What's figured out, and the challenge was, this was the day we had booked a month in advance, and we're booked up, but I would happily make room for Jeremy.
01:36:58.000And if anybody hasn't so far you can you can you can follow this journey because I'm telling you right now I'm coming to crush the establishment and I will with the support of you and you can do so at Matt4VA on social media and the website is Matt4VA.com.
01:37:13.000I'm fighting a war on two fronts, Democrats and these Republican establishments.
01:37:17.000So if you can help the campaign out, please do so.
01:40:33.000He didn't like the body suit and he could chew through it to get to the stitches, so I got him this Cosmos collar where it's like stars and stuff and it looks like a flower so he can't bite his own stitches.
01:41:04.000That stem is the company that does it.
01:41:06.000It's headquartered in San Diego, California, I believe, and they will be sending it out overnight to the clinic, whatever clinic we choose to go to, and then they will give them.
01:42:10.000You know what's crazy, though, is one day, like in 100 years from now, like after all the stem cell research and stuff, like being paralyzed is not even going to be a thing anymore.
01:42:21.000They're going to look back at us and laugh at us like Can you believe they allowed people to stay paralyzed back then?
01:44:28.000Because for me, sometimes if I'm addicted to something, eating a healthy thing kind of like helps my body, not just waiting for the addiction to go away, but actually introducing new things kind of to take control of my own body.
01:44:39.000But I'm interested to hear what you've done to kick all that stuff.
01:44:44.000So like during the pandemic, everybody was drinking more.
01:44:48.000Everybody was like, you know, and I started noticing, man, because I used to, I would have maybe a couple of beers on the weekend or something, but you know, for whatever reason during the pandemic, man, I'd have a beer a day.
01:45:42.000Aren't they already involved in our food?
01:45:45.000Yeah, but I mean, you hear, you know, a lot of, I don't know if they're rumors or not, but you hear a lot of stories about how they're going to come get these anti-vaxxers one way or another.
01:45:56.000They're going to put the mRNA vaccine in your food now.
01:45:59.000And, you know, it's just, and nothing today to me is a conspiracy theory.
01:46:50.000We need to fight back by putting the right people in these political positions.
01:46:53.000The issue, too, though, with the electric cars is that they're not actually sustainable or renewable or better because of the implications of the mining that goes into creating those batteries.
01:47:03.000The waste from the batteries is worse than the waste from all those bills.
01:47:05.000I think everybody knows that except people who are lying to themselves.
01:47:08.000Well, I think they, yeah, I mean, you know, these people who are like, oh, I'm going to give up my gas stove to get an electric stove because it's better not realizing that they're just creating waste by getting rid of their existing stove.
01:47:19.000This is a good one from Jeff Phillips.
01:47:20.000He says, my background is pharmacology and I've worked in and with the pharmaceutical industry for years.
01:47:25.000I don't know one scientist at any pharmaceutical company that want anything except making medicines that help.
01:47:30.000And I'll tell you exactly what happens.
01:47:32.000The scientists are like, yo, we've discovered this medicine that seems to do this thing.
01:47:36.000It's going to help a whole lot of people.
01:47:38.000And then during those tests, they're like, we noticed that these pills you prescribed to save people from heart attacks is giving them boners.
01:47:46.000And then a business guy goes, we are gonna make a fortune on boner pills.
01:47:51.000And I think that's what it was, wasn't it?
01:49:38.000Two weeks ago and all the favorites won.
01:49:40.000So it's like you you bet ten bucks and you win like thirteen dollars or something So it's like okay And I guess it's because people will bet on the long shot horses and then that money covers so you don't you can't really You like if you really want to make money gambling you can go bet on roulette or something put on a red or black But the horse is fun.
01:49:58.000It's like you pick the horse with the stupidest name, you know, like American Patriot or something and No offense, I mean, the horse is a nice horse, I'm sure.
01:50:06.000But he just came in last place, so he didn't win any money or anything like that.
01:50:13.000Jumping up on those horses, man, and going around the track like they do, man.
01:50:16.000That's the first thing I thought of when I was at a racetrack for the first time.
01:50:19.000I said, good Lord, man, these dudes, they got some heart, man, because those horses, man, they got some power.
01:50:24.000My favorite are always the mystery shows that take place at the horse races.
01:50:27.000Like you'll get like an Agatha Christie show and it's all about there's murder at the horse track and someone was illegally doping the horse.
01:53:18.000I mean, my wife and I are at the restaurant all day every day because it's hard to get people in especially management positions.
01:53:29.000It's easier to get the younger workers that are just coming into the workforce.
01:53:33.000I mean, although I gotta, you know, I gotta overpay them to work.
01:53:37.000It's easier to get those folks because they're just coming into the workforce.
01:53:40.000But to get the 25-year-olds who can hold down the restaurant without me having to be there, you know, 24-7, those are the positions that are impossible to fill right now.
01:53:56.000But what I do see is, I do know a lot of people are on unemployment because I put those ads out and I'll get like 30 applications a week and I'll call all of them in for an interview and none of them will show up.
01:55:19.000What they actually say is, if you take that underpaying job, your bills, you won't be able to pay them, you will end up in the exact same position, and it'll be for longer, and it will reinstate another round of benefits.
01:55:33.000So the math actually is, don't take an underpaying job, otherwise you'll end up paying more unemployment.
02:00:17.000It's it's the Oregon Trail It's this it's this it's a prequel to Yellowstone and they're and they're going and there's like it's like if you ever played the game Oregon showing your kid Oh, you're gonna love it, and then I'm watching it, and it's literally like every five seconds It's people just killing each other and I'm like come on man And then and then it's apparently like it's it's realistic to how things were back then I'm like Come on, there's like a pickpocket, and then, and maybe this is true, fine, the main character just shoots him in the back, and then he, and then everyone starts, someone else pickpockets, starts stomping on him while he's got like buckshot in his back, and then he goes, he took my wallet, and grabs his wallet back, and then they literally drag him, and just string him up right there, killing him on the spot, and I'm like, for real?
02:00:59.000Then, there's like, I don't want to spoil it, but there's like a big fight happens and a kid dies, so they go to the marshal, it was played by Billy Bob Thornton, and he's like, well, let's go, and then he walks into the saloon, and then he goes, he yells out the guy's name, and then he's like, look, I, boom, shoots him, shoots it, shoots a guy, shoots a guy, shoots a guy, and he goes, are there any else?
02:01:19.000And then he points at another guy and he walks up and shoots him, and I'm like, come on.
02:01:45.000Like yeah, you'd have an emotional reaction.
02:01:47.000You'd be like freaked out if somebody walked into where you were sitting and shot 10 people.
02:01:50.000All right, we're gonna read one more here.
