Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - SHENANIGANS As They STILL Haven't Called Kari Lake Victory w-Libby Emmons

00:00:00.000 you you

00:00:49.000 so i'm calling shenanigans They still haven't called the race for Carrie Lake?

00:01:07.000 Yo, last night we were waiting for the primary results out of Arizona.

00:01:10.000 You guys know that we've had Carrie Lake on the show several times.

00:01:12.000 She's amazing.

00:01:14.000 And I saw the polling results as they were coming in, and I was shocked to see that Carrie Lake was down in the polls.

00:01:21.000 I was like, how is this possible?

00:01:23.000 Everybody was like, nah, she's gonna win, she's gonna win.

00:01:25.000 And then I was like, well, what can you do?

00:01:26.000 Go to bed, wake up, boom!

00:01:27.000 Carrie Lake in the lead.

00:01:29.000 80% reporting.

00:01:30.000 And Carrie Lake and her team, they've declared victory.

00:01:32.000 Now, analysts are saying, in all likelihood, it really does seem like she can't lose.

00:01:38.000 She's up around 11,000 or so votes.

00:01:41.000 And it looks like the remaining votes that are gonna come in aren't going to pull enough for her opponent to win.

00:01:48.000 But something strange is happening with how it's being handled.

00:01:51.000 And there is an interesting solution to this conundrum.

00:01:57.000 Democrats have reportedly been crossing over and voting in the GOP primary.

00:02:00.000 When you look at the results right now, you can see Maricopa is against Kerry, or I should say it's for Robson, her opponent.

00:02:07.000 And that's the dense Democrat area.

00:02:09.000 If they're coming out and voting in the GOP primary, that's what you would see.

00:02:12.000 So we'll talk about that.

00:02:14.000 We'll talk about what's going on and why they haven't called the race yet for Carrie Lake.

00:02:18.000 And then we got, I guess, in international news, Russia says they're going to join China if a war breaks out between China and the U.S.

00:02:25.000 over Taiwan.

00:02:26.000 China's going to be firing missiles over Taiwan, the first time ever, and surrounding it with live fire drills and military ships.

00:02:35.000 You know, I really do think that it's possible.

00:02:38.000 I think it's probable Nancy Pelosi went to Taiwan because they expect Taiwan to fall, and fall soon.

00:02:43.000 So we'll talk about that.

00:04:00.000 Happy to be here.

00:04:02.000 Lydia is not with us today because she's on vacation.

00:04:04.000 And I'm Chris.

00:04:05.000 Filling in for Lydia.

00:04:06.000 Nice jacket.

00:04:08.000 That was the fastest we've ever done introductions on this show.

00:04:10.000 I just want to talk about Nancy Pelosi.

00:04:13.000 Oh, Nancy Pelosi.

00:04:14.000 No, we're gonna talk about Carrie Lake first.

00:04:15.000 Oh, good.

00:04:17.000 Alright, we have this story from Axios Phoenix.

00:04:21.000 Lake declares victory in Arizona GOP primary, says outstanding ballots will favor her.

00:04:27.000 With at least 150,000 votes left to count, Carrie Lake declared victory Wednesday in the Republican primary for governor, while rival Karen Taylor-Robson stayed mum throughout the day.

00:04:36.000 Lake led Robson by less than two percentage points as of Wednesday morning, but the remaining

00:04:41.000 ballots which are largely early ballots that were dropped off at polling places on election

00:04:44.000 day are expected to expand her lead.

00:04:47.000 Okay, I say the AP hasn't called the race yet, but look, even though they're early ballots,

00:04:52.000 they're still saying it's likely going to be for Carrie Lake.

00:04:55.000 But let me show you this.

00:04:56.000 Let me see if I have the maps here.

00:04:57.000 Check this out.

00:04:58.000 Did we just get an update?

00:04:59.000 I think we just got an update, literally.

00:05:01.000 No, maybe it's a graphic.

00:05:02.000 No, that's still 80%.

00:05:02.000 It's been 80% since the New York Times.

00:05:05.000 They've been calling it 80% all day.

00:05:07.000 Yeah, take a look at this.

00:05:09.000 Right here we can see Taylor Robson in Maricopa.

00:05:12.000 She's got it, but the rest of the state is for Carrie Lake.

00:05:15.000 How is it this close?

00:05:17.000 I think there's a simple answer.

00:05:19.000 Democrats are voting as Republicans in the Republican primary.

00:05:24.000 It's certainly possible.

00:05:25.000 I mean, why not do a crossover?

00:05:27.000 But then they're not going to be able to vote Democrat in the Democratic primary?

00:05:30.000 Well, the Democrat primary was today, too.

00:05:33.000 And if you scroll up, if you look at the Democrat primary, what is it?

00:05:38.000 Katie Hobbs?

00:05:39.000 Yeah.

00:05:39.000 Katie Hobbs had all of the state except for, was it Santa Cruz County there at the bottom?

00:05:44.000 Santa Cruz County.

00:05:45.000 Yeah, that's it.

00:05:46.000 So it's not like there was a big contentious race on the Democrat side.

00:05:50.000 It's almost you were gonna.

00:05:51.000 Yeah, it's a question of like if they think it's more effective to try and put a more extreme candidate in office.

00:05:58.000 We've all talked about this.

00:05:58.000 They think that they can beat Carrie Lake later.

00:06:00.000 You know, it's a better gamble to Vote in the Republican primary, I guess.

00:06:07.000 I mean, not all states have open primaries like this, and some, if you're registered as a Democrat, you can only participate in the Democratic primary.

00:06:14.000 That's true in New York, yeah.

00:06:15.000 It's true in New York, it's true in Connecticut.

00:06:17.000 Nevada, I think, is changing this law and the idea because they're talking about like a rank choice instead.

00:06:22.000 Rank choice voting, yeah, we have rank choice voting in New York, in New York City, but you can still only vote in your designated party primary.

00:06:31.000 Oh, interesting.

00:06:32.000 With these people, if they now, like, are they still registered Democrat while they're voting in the Republican primary?

00:06:40.000 You have to change your registration, most likely.

00:06:42.000 Can they do that, like, and then the next day change it back?

00:06:44.000 Or are they stuck for a year as like a Republican now?

00:06:47.000 I don't know what the rules are about registering.

00:06:50.000 That's like such local stuff.

00:06:52.000 I don't know.

00:06:53.000 Yeah, there's a huge variety.

00:06:54.000 Some places you have to be registered for a certain period of time prior to.

00:06:58.000 Like before you know who the candidates are?

00:07:00.000 No, they've known who the candidates are for a long time.

00:07:02.000 Carrie Lake was running for governor starting in January.

00:07:05.000 So I think you probably could have changed it.

00:07:08.000 It's an open primary in Arizona.

00:07:10.000 Oh, it's an open primary.

00:07:11.000 So even if they're registered as a Democrat, they can participate in the Republican primary.

00:07:15.000 Wow, that's kind of crazy.

00:07:16.000 That is a little crazy.

00:07:16.000 Maybe we shouldn't allow that.

00:07:18.000 Yeah, I don't know why you would have that.

00:07:21.000 The argument against it is typically that independents can't participate in the primary.

00:07:25.000 So Nevada has a high proportion of independent voters and they think leaving the closed primary system would be better because they would be able to participate in narrowing down the candidates earlier on.

00:07:37.000 Take a look at this.

00:07:38.000 Over at the New York Times article, you can see 482,113 votes in the Democratic primary, 637,210 in the Republican party.

00:07:46.000 But for some reason, it's the Maricopa area that's gone for Karen Taylor Robson and not Carrie Lake.

00:07:54.000 Maybe it's crossover.

00:07:55.000 I'm not entirely convinced.

00:07:57.000 It may just be moderate-leaning Republicans are like, we don't want the MAGA stuff.

00:08:01.000 So in the cities, they're more moderates.

00:08:07.000 But are these people going to come out for Pence?

00:08:08.000 Isn't he talking about making a run now?

00:08:11.000 I don't know about that.

00:08:12.000 He's the milkiest of the milquetoasts.

00:08:14.000 But I'll add this.

00:08:17.000 If these numbers are correct, and that 637,000 Republicans came out to vote, Democrats are in serious trouble.

00:08:24.000 If it's true that Democrats switched over, because we've seen that reported in other instances, then Republicans are going to be blindsided.

00:08:32.000 How many of these would you need to take away?

00:08:34.000 You take away 100,000 of these votes, and then all of a sudden the Democrats are winning.

00:08:39.000 Yeah.

00:08:40.000 I don't believe that 100,000 people came out and were Democrats voting to sabotage Carrie Lake.

00:08:46.000 It's possible.

00:08:48.000 I think it's probably just simply put, urban conservative types are middle of the road.

00:08:53.000 I still find it hard to believe.

00:08:55.000 And we might have seen, like, the, you know, Arizona Democratic Party making the suggestion.

00:09:00.000 People aren't good at keeping these kind of secrets.

00:09:02.000 So if it was a suggestion, we would have seen it on social media already.

00:09:06.000 I mean, look, Meghan McCain's got fans, and she was ripping into Carrie Lake.

00:09:09.000 She was so mad about it.

00:09:10.000 But the other thing is that I polled the Real Clear Politics poll numbers.

00:09:13.000 I mean, Carrie Lake has been popular.

00:09:14.000 She has been leading the polls for several weeks at this point.

00:09:17.000 So in some ways, You know, maybe people did cross over.

00:09:20.000 And on the other hand, you would assume there'd be some indication that she is maybe more popular than Arizona is willing to admit to itself.

00:09:27.000 Well, that makes sense.

00:09:28.000 I mean, if they're polling people, you get a phone call and you're like, who are you voting for?

00:09:31.000 Someone who hates Carrie Lake is going to be like, not Carrie Lake.

00:09:33.000 But someone who's crossing over to sabotage Carrie Lake will contribute to a vote against her.

00:09:38.000 So, you know, if they get called up, it's a Democrat.

00:09:41.000 Are you voting for Karen Taylor Robson?

00:09:43.000 They're going to say, no way.

00:09:44.000 But they do vote in the primary to sabotage Carrie Lake.

00:09:47.000 I bet someone could be, I'm a registered Democrat, but I'm going to vote in the Republican primary for the crappier candidate, and then I'm going to switch back and vote for the Democrat in general.

00:09:55.000 But this is an open primary.

00:09:57.000 Take a look at this story.

00:09:58.000 So I guess, if it's an open primary, can you show up and say you want one ballot instead of another?

00:10:03.000 Or is everybody on the same ballot?

00:10:05.000 I don't know.

00:10:06.000 That would be weird.

00:10:07.000 How would they prevent you from voting twice?

00:10:09.000 I don't know.

00:10:10.000 It could explain why a bunch of other... Well, here's the other issue, too.

00:10:13.000 Now, this is the weird thing.

00:10:15.000 People are pointing out, like, it's very strange that Carrie Lake was doing so well in the polls.

00:10:20.000 What about every other candidate in Arizona?

00:10:22.000 Look at this.

00:10:23.000 Blake Masters wins swimmingly.

00:10:26.000 So all of these Trump-endorsed candidates sweep through with no questions, but then Carrie Lake is—and it's not just about Arizona, it's like all these states.

00:10:35.000 Gibbs in Michigan, I think it was Michigan, right?

00:10:38.000 Trump-endorsed wins, with the help from Democrats, mind you.

00:10:40.000 A lot of help from Democrats.

00:10:42.000 That was— That's so weird.

00:10:43.000 That was so interesting because they were putting in money, Democrats were putting money in to get Gibbs the victory there.

00:10:51.000 And this is the strategy, this is the strategy I was listening to this podcast today, the New York Times podcast actually, about how Claire McCaskill was the one who really pioneered this strategy of essentially picking the candidate that she wanted to run against And then putting up ads that made that candidate popular to the far right.

00:11:13.000 So she looked at the spate of candidates in Missouri, decided that she wanted to run against this one guy who seemed crazy, who eventually ended up being the one who said that if a woman is raped, she can shut that down and then not get pregnant.

00:11:27.000 Remember that guy?

00:11:29.000 Yeah.

00:11:29.000 The body has a way of shutting that down.

00:11:32.000 Right, because of course.

00:11:33.000 Sure.

00:11:33.000 You know, every woman knows that.

00:11:35.000 You've got like a trap door.

00:11:37.000 This is basic human biology.

00:11:39.000 I don't know what you guys are talking about.

00:11:42.000 Guys, you know, for some guys.

00:11:44.000 Those medieval monks were correct with the teeth.

00:11:47.000 You know, you can shut it down.

00:11:48.000 We were in a different health lesson, I think.

00:11:55.000 Separated by gender.

00:11:56.000 I did see that movie Teeth.

00:11:59.000 Oh, God, no.

00:11:59.000 Have you ever seen it?

00:12:01.000 Actually, in a play that I wrote this one time, one of the characters said... How are we talking about this now?

00:12:06.000 Anyway, Carrie Lake made us do this.

00:12:08.000 This one character, she said, if I had teeth down there, I'd bit his hand off.

00:12:14.000 There's a movie called Teeth and this woman goes to the doctor, to like the gyno, and he's like, let me just check you up.

00:12:21.000 And then his hand gets mutilated and he's like, vagina dentata!

00:12:25.000 And then she's like, yeah, that's the movie.

00:12:28.000 It's like, I guess a horror movie.

00:12:30.000 I had a friend who was obsessed with that.

00:12:32.000 And he also would, that's a totally different story.

00:12:35.000 Anyways, it was Claire McCaskill.

00:12:38.000 She went with this thing and she was running ads that was like, you know, this person is really oppositive and she made him really popular to the far right.

00:12:47.000 And that is a strategy that they used to pump Gibbs.

00:12:51.000 And also, we all remember when Trump was running against Hillary Clinton and everyone was like, oh, it'll be great if Trump gets the GOP nomination because Hillary Clinton will have no trouble beating him.

00:13:03.000 This is a stupid maneuver, guys.

00:13:05.000 Go with your values.

00:13:07.000 Maybe try and run people you believe in who you think would be positive and good leaders for our country.

00:13:14.000 Absolutely not.

00:13:15.000 No, that's against the rules.

00:13:16.000 November of 2016, one of the greatest years ever, was just seeing the establishment have everything implode.

00:13:24.000 The panic, the crying.

00:13:26.000 It was insane.

00:13:29.000 schadenfreude, but just like, uh, like the most dense, hyper concentrated, straight into

00:13:36.000 the vein intravenous schadenfreude, watching all these people lose their minds.

00:13:42.000 I will say I was one of the sad people and I went to Whole Foods.

00:13:47.000 No.

00:13:47.000 I went to Fairway.

00:13:48.000 I went to Fairway in Brooklyn the next day, which is this, like, extremely yuppie grocery store.

00:13:54.000 And there were people crying, like, sobbing as they were picking out their frozen vegan waffles.

00:14:01.000 And then Sweet Home Alabama came on, like, over the PA system, and this older woman walked up to, like, one of the people who worked there and said, Now, I really think this is in very poor taste.

00:14:12.000 Can we at least change this?

00:14:14.000 My stepmom has this story about dropping her kids off at Montessori like school or whatever and these moms sobbing and one is like, does someone have a snack to give to Jim?

00:14:22.000 Like I couldn't pack one this morning.

00:14:25.000 You're like, girl, get together.

00:14:26.000 It feels like, you know, you can still feed your kids.

00:14:28.000 But I remember people calling out of work with with like sadness.

00:14:32.000 Just calling out.

00:14:32.000 I mean, going into morning.

00:14:34.000 It was crazy.

00:14:35.000 For me, I was having a good time.

00:14:37.000 Yeah, it was wild.

00:14:38.000 Cassandra Fairbanks was crying.

00:14:41.000 Yeah.

00:14:41.000 Cassandra was crying, but for the other, she was crying tears of joy.

00:14:45.000 So, you know, I was hanging out with her and it's just, it's fun to reminisce about some of the greatest days in human history, right?

00:14:51.000 November 2nd, 2016.

00:14:51.000 It was the 11th?

00:14:52.000 No, it was the 9th.

00:14:53.000 It was the 9th.

00:14:56.000 What, when they, what do you mean?

00:14:57.000 November 9th is when Trump won.

00:14:59.000 Was that when it was?

00:15:00.000 7th?

00:15:00.000 Wasn't it the 7th?

00:15:01.000 I thought it was November 9th.

00:15:03.000 It was early November.

00:15:04.000 We can agree it was before the 15th.

00:15:05.000 It was a cold day in hell.

00:15:06.000 What day was it?

00:15:07.000 November 8th!

00:15:08.000 8th?!

00:15:08.000 There we go!

00:15:09.000 November 8th.

00:15:09.000 Everybody's wrong.

00:15:10.000 I'm happy.

00:15:11.000 No, but the 9th was when they called it for him.

00:15:13.000 The ninth is when he was officially... They did declare after midnight, so Tim is technically correct here.

00:15:18.000 No, I'm talking about everybody crying.

00:15:19.000 It's November 9th, the greatest day.

00:15:22.000 Okay, so I'll take technically correct.

00:15:24.000 But it reminds me of that meme where the two women go like, and the guy just goes, yeah.

00:15:28.000 You know what I'm talking about?

00:15:29.000 There's like two women and they look at something and they're like shocked and the guy just starts laughing and smiling.

00:15:34.000 That's what it was like.

00:15:35.000 I didn't vote for him but it was just like to see Hillary Clinton just see everything that she's ever wanted taken from her and she's just an awful person.

00:15:43.000 It was wild.

00:15:43.000 It was so amazing.

00:15:45.000 It was euphoria, you know?

00:15:46.000 Yeah.

00:15:47.000 I was, it was totally crazy.

00:15:48.000 I remember how many people around me were just, like, it was completely divided is what I remember.

00:15:54.000 Even people who weren't that political were suddenly like, I don't know what's gonna happen to the country.

00:15:58.000 And the people I had no idea were in any way interested in politics also being like, this is the best thing ever!

00:16:04.000 Like, I had no idea.

00:16:05.000 So bringing it back to where we are now with, you know, like Kerry Lake and all that stuff, now I'm just like, okay, look, you know, I voted for Trump in 2020.

00:16:12.000 I think school choice was really, really important.

00:16:14.000 He was all about it.

00:16:15.000 And looking now at Arizona with Kerry Lake, the possibility is that the whole system is just, is completely imploded.

00:16:23.000 Yeah.

00:16:24.000 So look, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution wrote, Democrats are voting in GOP primaries, say it's all about Donald Trump.

00:16:30.000 This article talks about how, what is it, 16,000 voters who chose Democratic ballots were among the 237 who voted in the GOP primary.

00:16:37.000 Now it's possible, I argued, they just switched parties.

00:16:40.000 They've abandoned the Democrats.

00:16:41.000 That's a reality, right?

00:16:43.000 Maybe what we're seeing in Arizona is that tons of Democrats are like, I don't want the Democrats, I don't want the MAGA, and so they are legitimately trying to vote Republican, and it's just more left-leaning people joining the Republican Party.

00:16:58.000 The same time, Democrats are funding Trump-supported, Trump-endorsed candidates, so the Democratic officials are propping up Trump's endorsed candidates, while the voters are voting for the other moderate Republican candidate, or whatever they want to call him.

00:17:14.000 It's just, the whole system is busted.

00:17:16.000 Oh, we watched it.

00:17:17.000 No, go ahead.

00:17:17.000 Oh, it's just something.

00:17:18.000 Larry Hogan got really mad about this, too.

00:17:20.000 He was like, Democrats are fun.

00:17:21.000 I mean, it was like, what?

00:17:22.000 One point.

00:17:23.000 It was like over a million dollars.

00:17:24.000 One point two million or something.

00:17:25.000 Right.

00:17:25.000 They got funded in.

00:17:26.000 And he was like, this is Democrat interference in our election.

00:17:30.000 Like, this this is not good.

00:17:31.000 And I don't.

00:17:34.000 Well, we did watch them change the rules, right?

00:17:35.000 Even if the strategy is, you could argue, what got Donald Trump elected, which I don't think it is,

00:17:40.000 but it played a role in some ways, it's not working for them.

00:17:44.000 I don't understand why you would keep doing it.

00:17:46.000 Well, we did watch them change the rules, right?

00:17:48.000 Like, it was after the 2016 election.

00:17:51.000 And we watched everyone freak out because Trump had won and decide that this was a huge crisis

00:17:56.000 and that now it didn't matter what you did so long as you Remember resist?

00:18:03.000 And it was like, I remember watching that and I was like, resist what though, you guys?

00:18:07.000 Like, what is it that we are going to resist?

00:18:09.000 Or like with Obama, change.

00:18:11.000 Well, what do you want to change, really?

00:18:13.000 And what do you want to change it to?

00:18:14.000 Like, define your terms so that we can actually talk about what's going on.

00:18:18.000 But with the whole resist thing, it was anything Trump did was completely wrong and had to be stopped at all costs.

00:18:26.000 Remember that?

00:18:27.000 And they proceeded that way through now.

00:18:30.000 I had friends tell me that using violent fascist tendencies against your enemy, Trump, for whatever, was fine.

00:18:37.000 I'm like, dude, that's insane.

00:18:39.000 You cannot take on evil and become evil to destroy evil.

00:18:42.000 You're just creating more of it.

00:18:43.000 But that's the decision that was made, was that this is a crisis.

00:18:47.000 Rules don't matter.

00:18:48.000 Common decency doesn't matter.

00:18:49.000 We have to give up the ways that we've behaved up to this point.

00:18:53.000 That was what they did.

00:18:54.000 I'm just so tired of all the people that cried when Donald Trump won.

00:19:00.000 Those are the people that I'm just, I am sick of.

00:19:03.000 And you know, like Tucker Carlson pointed out, when I think it was Ben Smith asked if he was racist.

00:19:07.000 That was a great interview.

00:19:08.000 Yeah, he was like, the people that I don't like are like middle-aged white liberal women.

00:19:13.000 He blamed them for everything.

00:19:15.000 Yeah, he's like, that's the one matter, that's not race.

00:19:19.000 They are an overwhelmingly large bloc of Democrat voters.

00:19:24.000 So you look at this group, they're crying.

00:19:26.000 They have no idea what they're crying about.

00:19:28.000 Oh, the mean man said naughty words.

00:19:30.000 Dude, when you've got murderous dictators, communist regimes, outright fascists, they call Trump a fascist, but come on, he's not.

00:19:38.000 And they're actually threatening us.

00:19:39.000 You might want the potty mouth bully guy to go in there and, you know, shove someone around and be like, back off.

00:19:45.000 That was a thing I liked about Trump, you know.

00:19:48.000 Trump is, as I've said before, he's the crazy guy on a corner with a knife.

00:19:50.000 You stay away from him.

00:19:52.000 You keep your distance.

00:19:53.000 Your house never gets robbed.

00:19:55.000 It's okay.

00:19:56.000 It's like all of the buildings on the street are just like vandalized and looted, but there's one really nice one.

00:20:02.000 Yours is fine.

00:20:02.000 And they're just like, how come no one's robbing this building?

00:20:04.000 It was a crazy guy on the corner with a knife.

00:20:06.000 I just keep feeding him steaks.

00:20:07.000 It's fine.

00:20:08.000 It works out.

00:20:08.000 One way to keep him out.

00:20:09.000 Like when he said he was going to nuke Beijing or Moscow, do you remember that?

00:20:13.000 And you don't know, he might!

00:20:16.000 He just might!

00:20:16.000 That's the thing with Biden now, right?

00:20:19.000 Biden is a dotty old man, and you have absolutely no confidence that he's going to do anything other than the most moderate, conciliatory, weak-ass move.

00:20:29.000 Yeah, I think he'll just be totally in line.

00:20:31.000 I mean, I don't mean to kick him while he's down, but like, this guy got COVID after just getting COVID.

00:20:37.000 I don't really think that Biden's up to anything.

00:20:41.000 He's like signing executive orders while locked in his bedroom.

00:20:43.000 He's grounded.

00:20:44.000 Like, I don't know that...

00:20:47.000 Sometimes when we talk about Biden, like, will he run for re-election, what I actually think has happened is he's going to forget that he was told he wasn't, so he's going to announce that he is, and they're going to have to be like, he said that he was going to.

00:20:56.000 He's going to forget that he's president, and they're just going to be like, remember when he announced he was running for the Senate while he was running for president?

00:21:02.000 Yeah.

00:21:03.000 And hasn't he called Jill Biden, or his wife, the president at one point?

00:21:07.000 Kamala Harris, he kept calling her the president.

00:21:09.000 Several times.

00:21:10.000 And he introduced his sister as his wife.

00:21:12.000 But the dude's gotta be on some kind of pills.

00:21:15.000 I bet they're giving him all this crazy IV therapy stuff.

00:21:19.000 They're putting him in hyperbaric regeneration chambers.

00:21:21.000 They're like, we must!

00:21:23.000 But what's gonna happen is, come 2024, he's gonna be like, what am I doing?

00:21:26.000 And they're like, you're retired.

00:21:27.000 He's like, oh!

00:21:28.000 And then they're gonna walk up, Pete Buttigieg or Newsom, and be like, come on, get in there.

00:21:32.000 Right.

00:21:32.000 And then they're gonna, yeah.

00:21:33.000 Or AOC!

00:21:34.000 Yeah, I hope so.

00:21:35.000 I really hope it's AOC.

00:21:36.000 She is so dumb though, you guys.

00:21:39.000 I don't think that she's ignorant.

00:21:45.000 I think she's, I think she's just not that bright.

00:21:48.000 Really?

00:21:48.000 Yeah.

00:21:49.000 She strikes me as intelligent.

00:21:51.000 She strikes you as intelligent?

00:21:53.000 Have you ever watched her?

00:21:53.000 She puts her glasses on and she looks, she sits up straight.

00:21:56.000 Like it's good.

00:21:56.000 It's a good move.

00:21:57.000 Maybe it's more charisma than intelligence.

00:22:00.000 She's got moxie.

00:22:02.000 Yeah, she's so new.

00:22:04.000 I mean, she says stuff that isn't true.

00:22:05.000 That's right.

00:22:07.000 So that's more ignorance, like if she doesn't know stuff.

00:22:09.000 No, that's stupid.

00:22:10.000 It is.

00:22:11.000 I think, was it Seamus who said it was a total Chad move when she went on Colbert and just made up stuff about the Civil War?

00:22:16.000 No, it was crazy!

00:22:17.000 I mean, that's ballsy.

00:22:19.000 You know, so the thing about AOC is that I kind of view her similarly to Trump in that it would be, like, chaotic for the deep state.

00:22:26.000 And I'm down for that.

00:22:27.000 It's not my preferred candidate.

00:22:29.000 But if it was AOC versus Trump, I'm kind of like, whoever wins, the bureaucratic state is going to be crying under their pillow tonight.

00:22:36.000 Who do you think would win?

00:22:37.000 I think Trump would win.

00:22:38.000 You think Trump would win over AOC?

00:22:39.000 I do think AOC is the Democrats' best choice, like their best bet.

00:22:43.000 She's got name recognition, she's young, she's got 13 million followers.

00:22:49.000 Not the most prominent, particularly prominent, but Gavin Newsom, he's like plastic, he's generic.

00:22:55.000 Well, it's the things they've been saying they don't want.

00:22:57.000 You know, yeah, he's just like an established white kind of, you know, he's younger than, let's say, Bernie Sanders.

00:23:04.000 But one thing he definitely has against him is a lot of data to back up why he sucks.

00:23:09.000 You know, his schools are failing.

00:23:10.000 His state is failing.

00:23:12.000 He's an abortion sanctuary state.

00:23:15.000 He constantly brings back COVID regulations.

00:23:17.000 He's an immigrant, an illegal immigrant.

00:23:21.000 Sanctuary State, right?

00:23:22.000 Oh, I thought you said he's an immigrant.

00:23:23.000 No, yeah, I did, but that's because I left out words in the middle.

00:23:27.000 He's got, yeah, I understand where you're headed.

00:23:29.000 He messed, he, like, violated all his own COVID restrictions.

00:23:33.000 Remember those, like, no one's going to forget those dinners at French Laundry.

00:23:37.000 Come on, guy, really?

00:23:39.000 Not wearing masks, partying with his friends.

00:23:42.000 I think if AOC were to get elected, her whole thing is like attention, social media, saying whatever.

00:23:49.000 It would be pure, it would be pandemonium, just insanity in the White House.

00:23:55.000 They would be coming to her being like, President Ocasio-Cortez, here's the documents on the latest problem that's happening in Afghanistan, and then she's going to say something totally unrelated or irrelevant.

00:24:05.000 She's going to be like, You know, when we went into Afghanistan in 2005, in Desert Storm, the first time, you had Saddam Hussein, who was working with ISIS, and, you know, that's why I don't think it's a good idea, and they're going to be like, she's just saying random things related to the Middle East conflict, isn't she?

00:24:21.000 Yeah, either that or she'll just be like, we can't go to war with that country because that would be racist.

00:24:26.000 Wait, I'll take it.

00:24:28.000 You know, it's like, no more troops in the Middle East, because President AOC says it's settler colonialism.

00:24:32.000 I'll be like, okay, all right.

00:24:34.000 Like, no foreign incursions.

00:24:37.000 I don't care the reason.

00:24:38.000 I mean, I am kind of worried about that at the federal level.

00:24:41.000 And then the first- Become weirdly isolationist, because she's like, no, we just have to leave everyone else alone.

00:24:46.000 Then the first gentleman will be a guy with a page on Flitwiki, right?

00:24:50.000 Like, The redhead dude?

00:24:51.000 Yeah.

00:24:52.000 Why, he does?

00:24:53.000 Well, they, I don't know for sure, but remember they were going after his feet when he wore sandals when they went to Florida to flout COVID restrictions and have a good time.

00:25:01.000 And her response to that was, you just want to date me?

00:25:03.000 That was like her red clapback?

00:25:05.000 Yeah, that was her whole thing.

00:25:06.000 And it was all like, and her boyfriend was sitting there with gross feet.

00:25:09.000 I'm just imagining she's like sitting down with Kim Jong-un.

00:25:11.000 And he's like, you know, Kim Jong-un says something about we have to negotiate terms if I'm going to stop these nuclear tests.

00:25:17.000 And she goes, Stop trying to date me, sir.

00:25:20.000 And then he's just like, what do I, what do I say?

00:25:23.000 It's almost as crazy as Trump.

00:25:25.000 They're like, the Americans have put a crazy person in the White House again.

00:25:28.000 You don't know what she wants?

00:25:29.000 But they couldn't, they can't, now we zag the other way with crazy, like it's a different kind of crazy.

00:25:34.000 They can't figure that one out either.

00:25:35.000 I mean, that is kind of funny.

00:25:36.000 It's like, Trump is aggressive, arrogant, kind of crazy.

00:25:39.000 And she's like, woman kind of crazy.

00:25:42.000 Also arrogant, kind of crazy.

00:25:44.000 But like the you want to date me line.

00:25:46.000 It's like, Trump would never say something like that.

00:25:48.000 Like, I don't think a dude would be like, If Kim Jong-un was trying to date me, he wouldn't say it.

00:25:52.000 Well, I also think she knows, like, it's a very awkward thing for most men to respond to.

00:25:57.000 Like, they can say no, but also, like, why are you making this about romance?

00:26:02.000 Like, we're professional rivals.

00:26:03.000 Like, we're in politics.

00:26:04.000 Like, why are you bringing this up?

00:26:05.000 Like, it's very strange.

00:26:07.000 Women can make everything about romance.

00:26:10.000 He said that girls wanted him to grab them by their genitals.

00:26:13.000 That wasn't romantic, though.

00:26:17.000 I would love to see Cortez over Trump because of the youth.

00:26:20.000 It's the youth.

00:26:21.000 Over Trump?

00:26:21.000 Over Trump.

00:26:22.000 I said that because you never heard about that.

00:26:24.000 No, that's eros.

00:26:25.000 Yeah, that's erotic.

00:26:26.000 Erotic is so.

00:26:27.000 Mr. A-type.

00:26:28.000 It's love, you know, it's love.

00:26:29.000 It's trust.

00:26:30.000 Trust.

00:26:31.000 I'd highly, I would love to see Cortez over Trump because of the youth.

00:26:35.000 It's the youth.

00:26:36.000 Over Trump?

00:26:37.000 Over Trump.

00:26:38.000 I can't take 80 year olds in office anymore, man.

00:26:39.000 There is a- I try not to be ageist, but I'm not.

00:26:42.000 It is really frustrating to see my parents' generation just refuse to give up power.

00:26:48.000 You know, they're just sitting there on piles of cash and piles of power and they refuse to clear the way for somebody new.

00:26:55.000 And it's their fault.

00:26:57.000 And all of the mess is their fault.

00:26:59.000 And it's like, you know, we definitely need new people in Washington.

00:27:03.000 This is one thing I like about DeSantis.

00:27:05.000 Like, he's young.

00:27:06.000 He's like, you know, isn't he Gen X, basically?

00:27:10.000 I don't know how old he is.

00:27:11.000 I think he's like 45.

00:27:12.000 He's like low end.

00:27:15.000 He's like, let's say at most 50.

00:27:16.000 He's got young children.

00:27:17.000 He has a young wife.

00:27:19.000 He's in his 40s.

00:27:20.000 I said at most, like top end of the scale.

00:27:22.000 He's got young children.

00:27:23.000 Oh my gosh, he's 43 is my age.

00:27:25.000 He's 43?

00:27:26.000 44?

00:27:26.000 He's a really young guy.

00:27:28.000 He's the same age as Ian?

00:27:28.000 That's awesome.

00:27:31.000 Wow.

00:27:31.000 Right?

00:27:32.000 So let's go DeSantis over AOC if we could.

00:27:35.000 I'd like to see the debate.

00:27:36.000 I'll be honest.

00:27:37.000 That's something that juries out for me on that.

00:27:39.000 But I would love to see those guys debate.

00:27:41.000 A Trump AOC debate would be the funniest show I've ever seen.

00:27:45.000 And they'd keep doing them too.

00:27:47.000 Excuse me.

00:27:48.000 Excuse me, young lady.

00:27:49.000 No, no.

00:27:50.000 Crazy AOC.

00:27:51.000 And then she'd be like, Trump just likes me.

00:27:53.000 He thinks I'm hot.

00:27:54.000 It would just be the weirdest TV show ever.

00:27:55.000 Can you just go boo?

00:27:58.000 Stephen Fry should be the moderator of that debate.

00:28:00.000 That would be really funny.

00:28:02.000 Can we make that happen?

00:28:04.000 I want to reach out to AOC's people.

00:28:06.000 Would you do a sit down with Donald Trump?

00:28:07.000 Put it on your vision board.

00:28:08.000 Yeah, even if they're not running.

00:28:09.000 I'm going to make a vision board of Trump debating AOC and then we're going to try and make it happen.

00:28:12.000 Just wish it into reality.

00:28:14.000 Several years ago, I saw something on Twitter that was like, after Trump is done with politics, like, he should just, like, when the next presidential debates happen, he should just livestream him commenting on them, because it's probably more interesting, because, like, him, watching him debate is so bizarre.

00:28:28.000 Like, I, I, there's nothing that compares to it, really.

00:28:33.000 We're sitting here talking about how funny it would be for AOC to debate or be on a show with Trump and then imagining how it would backfire and sort of backfire on us in that they end up agreeing on tons of populist positions and then Trump runs with AOC as VP.

00:28:50.000 He's like, we're going to win everyone.

00:28:51.000 She's like, I was wrong about this, man.

00:28:52.000 We're going to get the union working class manufacturing back.

00:28:55.000 It'll never happen because it's not really the case.

00:28:58.000 It would be nice to get manufacturing back.

00:29:02.000 Yeah.

00:29:02.000 Yeah, I mean, it was happening under Trump.

00:29:04.000 I'll say this.

00:29:05.000 I will say with certainty, I believe Donald Trump would absolutely do a sit down with AOC.

00:29:12.000 100%.

00:29:12.000 Probably.

00:29:12.000 But I don't think AOC would do it.

00:29:14.000 I mean, the ratings would be great.

00:29:16.000 And he loves ratings, you know?

00:29:18.000 Yeah, she got nothing to lose.

00:29:19.000 She wouldn't do it.

00:29:19.000 That'd be a good combo.

00:29:21.000 They don't even have to agree or disagree.

00:29:22.000 They just talk about ideas.

00:29:24.000 You don't think she'd do it?

00:29:25.000 I don't think so.

00:29:26.000 I think we should reach out.

00:29:28.000 There's only one way for us to find out.

00:29:29.000 Tim has to reach out.

00:29:30.000 I expect you to be on Twitter tonight.

00:29:32.000 I mean, you know, we've got some of Trump's inner circle has been on the show.

00:29:37.000 Yeah.

00:29:38.000 So we'll ask them.

00:29:40.000 Cause they've told us like, you know, we could arrange a sit down with Donald Trump, but it means we have to go to him.

00:29:46.000 And it certainly would not be a two and a half hour show.

00:29:48.000 But that's, you know, I was saying like, we'll have Trump on as long as he wants to be on.

00:29:52.000 It would be an honor and a privilege.

00:29:53.000 And then just whenever he's done, we can shake his hand and say, thanks for coming.

00:29:57.000 And then, you know, carry on with the show like we do normally.

00:29:59.000 We had Joe Rogan on the show.

00:30:00.000 Joe Rogan did it.

00:30:00.000 Yeah, for like an hour.

00:30:01.000 He was on longer than I thought he was going to.

00:30:03.000 He said he could pop in for a few minutes.

00:30:04.000 He hung out for like an hour.

00:30:05.000 I'd be totally down.

00:30:06.000 I just, I mean, if it's up in New Jersey, I mean, maybe AOC could come down and do it.

00:30:12.000 You know, maybe we do it at a venue or something where it's like kind of, you know, her security can bring her in and make sure she's safe and trumps people.

00:30:19.000 I don't know if they, I don't know if he'd want to go to a venue though.

00:30:21.000 He'd be like, pull the chairs up to where I'm at.

00:30:24.000 It would be the coolest thing in the world, though, to be honest.

00:30:25.000 It would be cool.

00:30:26.000 Bring them here.

00:30:27.000 It's a neutral ground.

00:30:27.000 They can all have their security.

00:30:29.000 Never gonna happen.

00:30:30.000 Yes, but I can dream.

00:30:32.000 Trump's too old.

00:30:32.000 He's got that golf course in New Jersey, doesn't he still?

00:30:34.000 So this is what we were told is basically we'd have to go up to Bedminster if we were to do anything with Trump.

00:30:40.000 And then, like, is AOC gonna drive down there or whatever?

00:30:43.000 It's like, man.

00:30:43.000 That's not that far.

00:30:44.000 I mean, I'll tell you, I don't think AOC would do it.

00:30:48.000 The one person that I know would probably just say yes outright is Vosh.

00:30:52.000 If I if we hit him up we were like would you like to sit down with Donald Trump?

00:30:55.000 He would be like yes, please Just and you know, so I'll give him credit for won't be

00:30:59.000 willing to do that despite the things we disagree on I don't think there's very many leftists at all that would

00:31:04.000 actually sit down and and have like a calm reason debate and you know

00:31:08.000 What's crazy about that? Is that I mean Trump was an anti-war president, right?

00:31:13.000 Like, the Democrats for a long time talked about being anti-war.

00:31:17.000 It's clear that they're not, obviously, you know, as they court conflict with China and Russia at the same time, because that's apparently brilliant diplomacy.

00:31:27.000 But yeah, I don't, so many of Trump's positions, like, well, mostly just the anti-war one, but that's a classically liberal position.

00:31:35.000 You can you can you can criticize him a lot for potty mouth stuff, decorum, whatever.

00:31:41.000 But his foreign policy stuff was the best I've ever seen in my lifetime.

00:31:44.000 I thought the bilateral agreement thing was smart.

00:31:47.000 And I also another another leftist position of his or liberal position of his is to have union manufacturing in the U.S.

00:31:54.000 to keep things local, to keep Americans employed, to keep ourselves self-sufficient.

00:31:58.000 These used to be liberal positions.

00:32:00.000 Yeah.

00:32:01.000 Yeah, they used to be.

00:32:02.000 And then Donald Trump ran as a conservative.

00:32:04.000 He supported gay marriage before getting into office.

00:32:07.000 And I think he broke the left because they were like, what do we campaign on now?

00:32:12.000 He went middle of the road.

00:32:14.000 Vox.com in 2015, I think it was 2015 or 16, said Donald Trump's a moderate.

00:32:19.000 He's a moderate candidate.

00:32:19.000 And I was really funny to see that if you go back and look it up, because I'm like, the media called him worse than Hitler.

00:32:25.000 But back then they were like, he's a moderate.

00:32:27.000 He was moderate in policy but extreme in personality and that was something they couldn't look past.

00:32:32.000 And really he's like sort of a working class hero.

00:32:35.000 Their decision making is based on emotion.

00:32:39.000 That's simply put.

00:32:41.000 So when Donald Trump gets up there and he goes, you know, like, oh, you know, fat pig or, you know, only Rosie O'Donnell, they're like, and everyone else is just like, and a lot of people are just like, oh, geez.

00:32:55.000 OK, but but do the right thing with with the border.

00:32:58.000 OK, how about that?

00:32:59.000 That's the thing too about Carrie Lake.

00:33:02.000 I think she's even got Biden basically bending the knee onto this policy.

00:33:07.000 Biden is going to be repairing gaps in the border in Yuma.

00:33:11.000 Look, man, that's why I'm like, why haven't they called it for Carrie Lake?

00:33:15.000 Because if even Joe Biden agrees on the policy that the Arizona border is in trouble, Carrie Lake's whole thing is like, we gotta fix the border.

00:33:23.000 Or one of our big things.

00:33:24.000 Well Joe Biden just started rebuilding a border wall.

00:33:28.000 Yeah.

00:33:28.000 Right.

00:33:28.000 He's building a wall.

00:33:30.000 But it was like, and what was that, Corinne Jean-Pierre was like, it's not Trump's border wall, we're just doing what's necessary.

00:33:36.000 Oh, okay.

00:33:37.000 You're building a wall.

00:33:38.000 There was a Democrat, when you saw all the coverage of the Yuma stuff come out, at least that's my experience, it was saying, you know, this was a sector that had previous funding, but Joe Biden repealed it, and now he's going to fix these gaps.

00:33:50.000 And basically there was one, I can't remember his name, I'll have to look it up, a Democratic Arizona, I think, congressman who was like, I just spoke to President Joe Biden about this two weeks ago, and we're really going to fix it now.

00:34:04.000 And he is running for re-election right now.

00:34:06.000 It is clear to everyone that the border is out of control.

00:34:10.000 Yeah.

00:34:11.000 I want to jump to this Nancy Pelosi foreign policy stuff.

00:34:14.000 But, you know, because I was just thinking, we have this story from Newsweek.

00:34:17.000 Russia blasts provocative Pelosi and vows to back China.

00:34:21.000 You even had a lawmaker in Russia say that if World War Three breaks out, they're going to nuke London right away.

00:34:27.000 And I'm just thinking about with all this talk of President AOC, I wonder what China and Russia are thinking.

00:34:34.000 Because in all seriousness, you know they're looking at their calendars thinking, what's going to happen come 2025 when a new administration enters?

00:34:43.000 What opportunities do we lose?

00:34:44.000 What opportunities do we gain?

00:34:46.000 What must we do now?

00:34:47.000 I'll tell you what they're all thinking.

00:34:48.000 The government of Russia and China, what they're begging and hoping for.

00:34:51.000 The United States will fight itself.

00:34:54.000 That's what they want.

00:34:55.000 That's right.

00:34:56.000 Well, we're doing a good job of that.

00:34:57.000 That's the only way we could lose in this situation is if we fight ourselves.

00:35:01.000 I think there's a lot of ways we could lose, actually.

00:35:04.000 More than 27% likely of a loss would be because of an internal conflict.

00:35:08.000 So I think if Donald Trump wins in 2024, China is worried about that.

00:35:13.000 Because they're gutting our economy, they're extracting our resources and our jobs.

00:35:18.000 Russia is excited about it, because Donald Trump does not want this psychotic American empire BS happening in the Middle East, and Russia's like, good for us.

00:35:26.000 It's probably why they backed off from Ukraine, because they felt like they weren't being threatened by this expansionist, you know, uniparty, Democrat-Republican garbage.

00:35:35.000 But China would probably freak out.

00:35:36.000 But I'm wondering if, like, Let's say the polls are wrong.

00:35:40.000 Let's say the Democrats are voting in the Republican primary, and so there's more Democrats voting, and then AOC gets elected.

00:35:46.000 Maybe not even AOC, because that's very silly.

00:35:50.000 Elizabeth Warren.

00:35:51.000 Who do we like?

00:35:53.000 She's so old.

00:35:54.000 There's only one president, I think, out of anyone, name a Democrat, name a Republican, Donald Trump is the only person I think who can handle the foreign policy.

00:36:04.000 With the conflict, the crisis.

00:36:06.000 Two reasons.

00:36:06.000 One, what we saw with this foreign policy was the best I've ever seen in my lifetime.

00:36:11.000 Getting our troops out of the Middle East, scheduling it to a great degree, pulling troops out, eliminating ISIS, crossing to the DMZ into North Korea with no security detail was a huge sign of good faith.

00:36:21.000 Abraham Accords.

00:36:23.000 What was the peace agreement he had up in Europe?

00:36:25.000 Which country was it?

00:36:25.000 I always forget.

00:36:26.000 Anyway.

00:36:27.000 What, like the Kosovo stuff?

00:36:28.000 I don't know.

00:36:28.000 know what was it? I don't know. I don't know. Someone want to look it up. He did. He did

00:36:32.000 another peace agreement. I'm sure the chat will know. But my point is the chat knows

00:36:36.000 it all. They do. They do. It's the Oracle. It's the great one. Donald Trump's foreign

00:36:40.000 policy was was just downright the best. On top of that, he had this this this twitching

00:36:46.000 eye about nuking his enemies if they crossed us.

00:36:50.000 So you got the best of both worlds.

00:36:51.000 Which was great.

00:36:52.000 I love that part.

00:36:53.000 He's bringing our troops back and nobody's crossing us because he's got his finger right on the nuke button being like, I'm pulling my troops out.

00:37:00.000 You see?

00:37:01.000 And they're looking at his finger on the button.

00:37:02.000 They're like, we're not moving.

00:37:04.000 Keep your troops out.

00:37:04.000 We're fine.

00:37:06.000 But Joe Biden, Man, this guy comes in and Russia was like, okay, into Ukraine we go.

00:37:11.000 Here we go.

00:37:12.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:37:13.000 Well, because Biden's not going to do anything.

00:37:15.000 Everything he's going to do is going to be calm and measured and considerate, you know?

00:37:20.000 He's never going to take any real decisive action.

00:37:22.000 Serbia, Kosovo, Serbia.

00:37:23.000 Serbia, yeah.

00:37:24.000 That was like the, that's the Europe war area.

00:37:27.000 You know, that's what I was thinking.

00:37:28.000 Yeah.

00:37:28.000 Must be over there.

00:37:29.000 That's their battleground.

00:37:30.000 That's like where they've been, you know.

00:37:32.000 Hide in the dead bodies and everything.

00:37:33.000 Yikes.

00:37:34.000 Right?

00:37:35.000 They had mass graves really under Clinton.

00:37:38.000 It was horrible.

00:37:38.000 In Kosovo?

00:37:39.000 Yeah, that whole area.

00:37:41.000 So we got this- After the Velvet Revolution.

00:37:44.000 We got these stories, you know, Russia says they're going to back China.

00:37:47.000 China's going to launch missiles over Taiwan.

00:37:49.000 A Russian lawmaker said they would nuke London.

00:37:52.000 He's like, that's the first thing hit.

00:37:54.000 And he said it's because London basically is an epicenter for NATO.

00:37:57.000 It's a huge, so they would go right after it.

00:37:59.000 I don't know.

00:38:00.000 I think, I think there's a lot of saber rattling, but how much of this is us just being like naive and thinking nothing bad could ever happen?

00:38:07.000 That it is.

00:38:08.000 I think that there's a lot of naivety to that.

00:38:10.000 And I think that we saw that under the Obama administration as well.

00:38:13.000 Because what happened with Obama is he would walk into the room having already stated what compromises he would make, right?

00:38:19.000 Because Obama walks in, he's like, I'm a reasonable man.

00:38:23.000 These are reasonable provisions.

00:38:25.000 Okay, except everyone else you're dealing with is a crazed invading lunatic, right, who wants more territory, who's not playing by your new rules.

00:38:32.000 Obama was playing by the rules of, we're in charge, everyone's cool with us being in charge, we'll make some, you know, considerations for you, we'll do some compromising.

00:38:41.000 Biden's going with those same rules, and those rules don't apply.

00:38:44.000 First of all, he's ridiculous, and everybody knows it, and it's obvious anytime he talks to world leaders that everyone thinks that he's, you know, lost his marbles.

00:38:54.000 It's almost like a get what go broke, right?

00:38:56.000 Almost, with the United States.

00:38:58.000 Like what happens is I'm imagining you've got like a candy shop and a security guard gets hired to stop shoplifters and he's this six foot four orange guy who's just like looking at everybody being like, hey, you fat pig, you get out of here.

00:39:13.000 Hey, I'm looking at you.

00:39:14.000 And people are laughing.

00:39:15.000 Some people are like, I don't want to go to this candy shop anymore.

00:39:17.000 And then the owner or like the investors come in and they're like, Get this guy out of here and just get anyone else.

00:39:23.000 And so they wheelchair in this old man who's just sitting there going, and then everyone runs in and starts just looting the store.

00:39:29.000 So it's, it's, it's like, because of the potty mouth, they cancel the president and then say, we'll take anything else.

00:39:37.000 And you get this tepid, pathetic old man.

00:39:40.000 And now we are being just rampaged over internationally.

00:39:43.000 Right.

00:39:43.000 It's not just I mean, there's like a Duane Reade in New York that's been putting spam in plastic lock boxes.

00:39:51.000 No, for real?

00:39:52.000 For real.

00:39:53.000 Because of shoplifting.

00:39:54.000 I mean, we're, you know, we're destroying our country.

00:39:57.000 We're destroying ourselves on the world stage.

00:39:59.000 We're destroying our reputation.

00:40:00.000 We're not doing anything.

00:40:02.000 Well, Obama, who was it was saying?

00:40:05.000 I looked up the other day because I thought it was Obama who was saying that we had to manage the decline of the US.

00:40:10.000 He didn't say it quite like that.

00:40:13.000 He said something like, I think we've got to blow up kids.

00:40:16.000 Too many of them.

00:40:17.000 But he said there was something about that, managing the decline of the US.

00:40:21.000 And I don't know why we ever let ourselves get sucked into that mindset.

00:40:24.000 If we're going to be an empire, why not just take over more stuff?

00:40:27.000 Because the new world order needs to set in.

00:40:29.000 The old world order is limited war, American military bases all over the earth, the liberal international economy.

00:40:35.000 Right, but meanwhile everyone else is still playing like they're empire builders.

00:40:38.000 I got an idea for a video game that I would like to make and it's you're playing as Obama and you're droning kids.

00:40:46.000 Yikes.

00:40:47.000 Or, they're not kids.

00:40:48.000 You think they're kids, but they're demons.

00:40:49.000 And then Obama's like, only I can do it!

00:40:50.000 he was the greatest president.

00:40:51.000 So what's the problem?

00:40:52.000 I really show his face and then you see it and it zooms into his eye.

00:40:55.000 And then all of a sudden you're looking out the camera of the drone.

00:40:57.000 Or they're not kids.

00:40:59.000 You think they're kids, but they're demons.

00:41:01.000 And then Obama's like, only I can do it.

00:41:03.000 There are demons, but the kids are there as collateral, but you still have to go for the

00:41:07.000 demons.

00:41:08.000 So it's like, well, the kids are just in the way.

00:41:10.000 I did not like Obama.

00:41:13.000 I think you should do Obama's voice.

00:41:14.000 If we do this video game, then you have to do it.

00:41:16.000 It's not actually a good Obama impression.

00:41:18.000 It's like an exaggerated fire away.

00:41:22.000 Well, kids, he was the opposite of Trump in that, I mean, there were definitely different guys, but he was like likable personality, but Pretty overrun by the deep state and militaristic.

00:41:33.000 He was blowing kisses while pressing the drone strike button.

00:41:36.000 Not super militant.

00:41:37.000 He wasn't invading countries.

00:41:39.000 He was just bombing stuff.

00:41:41.000 And they all have been, really.

00:41:42.000 Even Trump escalated the drone bombing program in secret, and he gave the control to the generals to make the decisions without him.

00:41:49.000 I was thinking about this recently too like because we have we have a don't we have a recruitment failure right now in our military we've like two months in the fiscal year and we're only halfway to the recruitment goals and we're going to be really short so what do you do in that situation if you're if you can't if you don't have guys to go send in and get blown up Do you advance your... Robots!

00:42:14.000 You know, robot autonomous weapons system.

00:42:16.000 Drones.

00:42:16.000 Depends on the situation.

00:42:17.000 Gigantic drones.

00:42:19.000 And if you have, if there are robot autonomous weapons, do they fall under 2A?

00:42:24.000 Does anyone get to have those?

00:42:26.000 I think they do.

00:42:27.000 Do they?

00:42:28.000 Yeah, I think it needs to be, it would need to be clarified and codified, but arms means arms.

00:42:34.000 So autonomous robot dogs with rifle shooting eyes?

00:42:40.000 A robot dog that can fire a weapon is just, it's like an advanced firing mechanism.

00:42:47.000 The thing about the left and the anti-gun, I shouldn't say the left, I hate doing that, the Democrats, the anti-gun people, is they just don't believe people have a right to defend themselves and they don't understand what a fundamental right is.

00:42:58.000 And a fundamental right is like, dude, if a weapon is held by the government, people had the right to have it.

00:43:05.000 So I'm all on board if people want to come together and say like, maybe there should be some limitations because weapons kind of got crazy in terms of like directed energy weapons and laser-induced plasma channels.

00:43:15.000 Now we got drones that you can mount stuff on.

00:43:17.000 Okay, maybe we should have a conversation there.

00:43:19.000 I say for the time being, arms are arms.

00:43:22.000 Whether it's a flying drone that you put a machine gun on, or a handgun, or a bow and arrow, or a knife, whatever.

00:43:28.000 It's the crazy thing is that knives aren't covered under arms.

00:43:32.000 What do you mean?

00:43:33.000 Like, you can't have knives in some place because there's no two-way right to it.

00:43:35.000 Oh, like you can't have Bowie knives and stuff like that.

00:43:37.000 Right.

00:43:37.000 Yeah.

00:43:38.000 And they say a knife of a certain length and stuff like that.

00:43:40.000 Certain things are like, well, it doesn't count as an arm, so, you know, as arms.

00:43:43.000 Meanwhile, there was just a stabbing attack during a tubing vacation.

00:43:47.000 Did you guys see that?

00:43:47.000 Yeah.

00:43:48.000 No, what was that about?

00:43:48.000 Yeah, so some crazy guy, I don't remember why, he was like part of the trip and he stabbed a 17-year-old to death.

00:43:55.000 Yeah.

00:43:56.000 Oh!

00:43:56.000 And he sent four other people to the hospital and they were all just tubing on a river.

00:43:59.000 Whoa.

00:43:59.000 I think it's typically like interpersonal conflict that just gets out of hand.

00:44:03.000 Do you see the box cutter slasher in New York or whatever?

00:44:06.000 No.

00:44:06.000 He just like holds his arm in there and he walks up to a woman and just slashes her in the back full force.

00:44:11.000 In broad daylight.

00:44:13.000 Could you imagine living in New York?

00:44:14.000 On the subway station?

00:44:15.000 No.

00:44:15.000 Could you imagine living in New York Libby?

00:44:17.000 I can imagine it very well.

00:44:19.000 I live there.

00:44:19.000 Bro, check this out. We went to New York to look to we went we did a trip for all the crew to see the

00:44:25.000 Billboards we put up that morning was when it happened. Oh, no. No, I think that yeah, I think the slashing happened

00:44:30.000 that morning cutter slasher Yeah, just like some some like older woman is like walking

00:44:35.000 with a little cart and he just slashes her back So the other day it was last weekend

00:44:39.000 and I was hanging out with my son as I tend to do because he lives in my house and

00:44:44.000 And I was like, do you want to go do something?

00:44:46.000 We could go to the Met.

00:44:47.000 I love the Met.

00:44:47.000 And also, the Met is the only museum in New York that stopped requiring Vax cards.

00:44:52.000 So I was like, OK, I'll go back to the Met.

00:44:55.000 But everybody else, the Guggenheim, everybody else, you have to show your Vax card.

00:44:58.000 I think that's still in effect.

00:44:59.000 Anyways, so I was like, you want to go do this?

00:45:01.000 We'll go hang out.

00:45:02.000 We'll go to the Lego store.

00:45:03.000 We'll do fun stuff.

00:45:04.000 We'll walk around.

00:45:05.000 And he was like, Can't we just drive to Jersey and go to a mall?

00:45:09.000 And I was like, yeah, we could do that.

00:45:12.000 And so instead of going to Manhattan, we went to the mall in New Jersey.

00:45:16.000 Your son is like ready to be in the suburbs.

00:45:18.000 He's done.

00:45:18.000 He's like, we're done here.

00:45:19.000 Did he say why you'd rather do Jersey?

00:45:21.000 So I said, you don't want to walk around Manhattan?

00:45:23.000 He was like, it's hot.

00:45:25.000 There's probably good stuff at a mall.

00:45:27.000 We can go to a chain restaurant.

00:45:29.000 You get the AC.

00:45:29.000 They got Panda Express.

00:45:31.000 We ended up at a California pizza kitchen.

00:45:34.000 Classic mall fair.

00:45:36.000 It was fun.

00:45:36.000 We had a fun day and we still like did a ton of walking.

00:45:40.000 We just wandered around the mall a lot.

00:45:42.000 Yeah.

00:45:42.000 I'm I'm excited for we just started construction on the new facility.

00:45:47.000 I'm excited to bring some some life and energy into West Virginia.

00:45:52.000 And I think these cities We were trying to expand in New Jersey, but they're insane.

00:45:59.000 These are insane communist people.

00:46:01.000 Yeah, New Jersey is nuts.

00:46:02.000 It's communists.

00:46:04.000 They're walking around waving sickle and hammer flags.

00:46:06.000 And I mean, I'm half kidding.

00:46:07.000 But where we lived, there were stores that were flying communist-style flags.

00:46:13.000 I'm not saying literal Soviet flags.

00:46:15.000 They had weird symbol flags that represented socialist and communist ideologies.

00:46:20.000 And I'm just like, you look, man, To a certain degree, I'm willing to engage in my community and expand, but when it gets to the point when local people are flying these flags, maybe it's not safe and we should go and try and just bring our investments to other places.

00:46:33.000 And you were on the Philly side of New Jersey, right?

00:46:36.000 We were on South Jersey, right on the other side of Philly.

00:46:39.000 And Philly is a disaster.

00:46:41.000 Oh yeah, that's another reason I was like, time to get out.

00:46:43.000 These cities, get what go broke, man.

00:46:46.000 It is, what, Galt's Gulch?

00:46:49.000 Is that what was it called?

00:46:49.000 What's that?

00:46:51.000 In Atlas Shrugged?

00:46:52.000 All the wealthy, high meritocracy people are just like, we're out, we're going to do our own thing.

00:47:00.000 And then everything starts breaking down and falling apart.

00:47:02.000 Fine, so be it.

00:47:03.000 Look, New York still got a lot of talented people running businesses, but it's a strain.

00:47:07.000 It's getting harder and harder to do.

00:47:09.000 I think cities are awful.

00:47:10.000 So be it.

00:47:11.000 I'm looking forward to getting out and just doing something with less people.

00:47:14.000 I think with New York I lived there for a little bit and part of it is for most people it's not going to be a long-term solution and I think in some ways our culture has shifted so much with the rise of like work from home work remote that like you can start investing in whatever community both like financially but also emotionally you can really set roots earlier because you're not fighting to establish your career you can be in a place that's more reflective of your values.

00:47:40.000 I think that the wave of people that we saw moving out of cities, I mean, we really haven't seen a wave returning since COVID, right?

00:47:47.000 There's been people coming back to New York.

00:47:50.000 Some, but not, it's not like they took time off and then went back.

00:47:53.000 I mean, people are discovering that life is sustainable outside the city.

00:47:56.000 Yeah, they're going to Mexico.

00:47:57.000 Did you see that?

00:47:58.000 And Mexicans are like, go home!

00:48:00.000 Yeah, no, so we did a segment about it, it was really funny, like right in the beginning, Lauren Southern, she's like, it's the Great Replacement!

00:48:06.000 But the segment we did talking about Mexicans getting angry at Americans invading their country, it's got like half a million views.

00:48:12.000 It's getting shared like crazy.

00:48:14.000 It's ironic, but I think the reason people are sharing it is because they're like, yo, the sentiment among people when a large influx of people of a different culture come in, the sentiment that people feel like negative towards that, it's universal.

00:48:27.000 They want to talk about multiculturalism.

00:48:29.000 I was like, well, it's multicultural to be upset when your way of life is overnight disrupted by Yeah, because you like your community, that's why you're there.

00:48:36.000 You're not there so that it just randomly gets changed by a bunch of people who decide they like it but want it to be in their image instead of yours.

00:48:44.000 I think we should talk about Alex Jones now.

00:48:46.000 We got this story from the Daily Mail.

00:48:47.000 That was a really brilliant segue, by the way.

00:48:49.000 Yeah, I thought so too.

00:48:50.000 I just figured it was not a segue at all.

00:48:52.000 It was perfect.

00:48:52.000 Just a beautiful statement.

00:48:53.000 January 6th, House Committee prepares to subpoena Alex Jones' emails and texts for any contact with Donald Trump after his legal team mistakenly sent them to Sandy Hook parents' lawyers.

00:49:04.000 Okay, I'm just so frustrated.

00:49:05.000 I don't know if you guys were watching the court case with the Alex Jones trial.

00:49:11.000 No, not yet.

00:49:13.000 It's just, this is made up stuff.

00:49:15.000 So here's what happens.

00:49:17.000 The plaintiff's attorney, he's like, we've got all of your text messages because they sent it to us by accident.

00:49:23.000 And Alex was like, I gave my cell phone to you.

00:49:26.000 I gave my cell phone to my lawyers to turn over.

00:49:28.000 And they're like, you tried to hide it.

00:49:30.000 And he was like, I gave my cell phone to you, you have it.

00:49:34.000 And they're like, no, you gave it to us on accident.

00:49:36.000 And he's like, what?

00:49:38.000 This is the craziest thing that they're saying, definitively, that it was mistakenly sent to them.

00:49:44.000 When you have two factions arguing, one side saying it was, one side saying it wasn't, why would you just decide one side is telling the truth?

00:49:51.000 This is the craziest thing to me.

00:49:53.000 Also, isn't it part of discovery?

00:49:54.000 Like, doesn't it go to everybody?

00:49:56.000 Well, so that was the issue.

00:49:57.000 They were arguing that it wasn't sent during discovery.

00:50:00.000 That it was, like, not sent during the typical process or whatever.

00:50:02.000 And I'm just like, okay, well, why would that have been an accident if they sent them all of his text messages or something like that?

00:50:08.000 Also, what is this accent?

00:50:09.000 They were just like, I put in the wrong email address?

00:50:11.000 I mean, that seems like a strange coincidence.

00:50:13.000 I accidentally gave you this Dropbox link somewhere.

00:50:15.000 Yeah, I accidentally specifically gave you the thing that you wanted.

00:50:17.000 Right.

00:50:19.000 I don't get it.

00:50:19.000 My bad.

00:50:20.000 And then the judge like intervened and said to the jury that we don't know that it was like he was trying to hide it or something but we do know they received it in an improper way or something like that.

00:50:34.000 It sounds like they're doubling two issues right now.

00:50:38.000 They're doubling the issue of Alex and what he said about Sandy Hook with this Trump January 6th thing.

00:50:44.000 Like what's he on trial for?

00:50:45.000 Sandy Hook.

00:50:45.000 It has nothing to do with the Trump He's on trial for one reason.

00:50:48.000 They're trying to destroy him, his career, his life, and everything.

00:50:51.000 It's a clown show.

00:50:52.000 It's going on for like seven years.

00:50:54.000 This is insane.

00:50:55.000 He already admitted what he did was wrong.

00:50:57.000 And he said that the media just wouldn't let it drop.

00:51:00.000 But there was one headline today that was like, he admits that.

00:51:02.000 No, it's everywhere.

00:51:03.000 It's so insane.

00:51:05.000 And if you look at the full quote, he's like, I admitted this a long time ago.

00:51:09.000 AP, Alex Jones concedes Sandy Hook attack was 100% real.

00:51:12.000 Yo, he said that like seven years ago!

00:51:14.000 Yeah, he conceded it a long time ago.

00:51:17.000 It's not present tense.

00:51:18.000 He said he used to have so many documents in front of him and he'd read things, and then one night he went on this tirade about Sandy Hook that he'd got some information that was bad information, he didn't vet it, and it changed his life ever since.

00:51:28.000 Well, this is what he told me.

00:51:30.000 He said ever since he's been just on the evidence, he will go deep into evidence now.

00:51:34.000 He doesn't shout stuff out as much as he used to.

00:51:37.000 Fair, fair, but I'm not going to cut Alex, I'm not going to let him off the hook on this one.

00:51:41.000 There were other people at InfoWars that were telling him to stop.

00:51:44.000 And I had heard this before the trial started, like, it was last year.

00:51:50.000 There were people, because we've had Alex on the show, we've had other people who've worked with him, and they were like, they were telling us, people were telling Alex, like, bro, chill on this stuff, you can't do this.

00:51:58.000 You can't defame private citizens like this.

00:52:01.000 Apparently it's come out in the trial.

00:52:03.000 They showed emails where staffers at InfoWars were complaining, being like, what are you doing?

00:52:09.000 Even when it came to the COVID stuff, people were getting mad, saying like, you're saying too much, you know, false stuff.

00:52:15.000 So I'll say it outright.

00:52:18.000 I think defamation is wrong.

00:52:21.000 Alex Jones wanted to go on his show and say things that weren't true or, you know, to a certain degree.

00:52:28.000 I think he's got to be held accountable.

00:52:30.000 However, I think what's going on right now is anything but that.

00:52:33.000 I mean, I feel like the lawyer was super smarmy.

00:52:36.000 It was just like, dude, I could not stand listening to the man because he was going, Alex?

00:52:43.000 And I'm like, shut up, dude.

00:52:44.000 Just ask a question.

00:52:46.000 Like, I got to tell you this.

00:52:47.000 If I'm sitting, if I'm sitting listening to a lawyer, I'm telling you, I think Alex Jones was wrong in this.

00:52:52.000 And I think he owes the family something.

00:52:55.000 Then their lawyer comes out and he goes, Mr. Jones, um, you said this, right?

00:52:59.000 Do you know what perjury is, Mr. Jones?

00:53:01.000 And I'm just like, wow, I really hate this guy and want Alex to win now.

00:53:05.000 Cause like, he's so awful.

00:53:06.000 It's like, Alex is up there coughing.

00:53:08.000 Was he like the Rittenhouse prosecutor?

00:53:10.000 Remember that guy?

00:53:11.000 Oh yeah, yeah.

00:53:12.000 It's just, yeah, that guy.

00:53:13.000 That guy was annoying.

00:53:14.000 Except he gave us the best legal quote of all time.

00:53:16.000 Don't get brazen with me.

00:53:17.000 I think these stories that I heard that you hear about in the news, people showing up to their houses and stuff, it's horrifying.

00:53:24.000 And there were people that worked with Alex that were telling him to back off.

00:53:28.000 And he went full steam, or I should say he went steam enough that he should have done it.

00:53:34.000 Now they're saying they want $150 million over it, and I'm like, this is where it's getting crazy.

00:53:39.000 It doesn't seem like he's getting a fair hearing.

00:53:42.000 He wasn't even granted a jury trial over this.

00:53:44.000 They went straight to the damages hearing.

00:53:48.000 It's totally insane.

00:53:50.000 It absolutely is.

00:53:51.000 So, you know, look, man, the most annoying thing is they do these really dirty games.

00:53:58.000 And what blows my mind is it just works on dumb people.

00:54:03.000 So one thing they're doing is...

00:54:06.000 Alex Jones, so I don't wanna use Alex Jones as a specific example.

00:54:09.000 I'll give you a general example.

00:54:10.000 Someone will say something like, do you have, I gave the example to Ian.

00:54:15.000 I was like, Ian, you have a rock in front of you.

00:54:17.000 This one here.

00:54:18.000 Is that rock blue?

00:54:19.000 No.

00:54:20.000 You are testifying right now that there is, that is not a blue rock?

00:54:23.000 Correct, yes.

00:54:24.000 Okay, now hand that rock over to us.

00:54:26.000 Then we'll go, ah, there it is, there is blue.

00:54:29.000 Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the rock, blue, right there.

00:54:33.000 Did you testify this rock was not blue, Mr. Crossland?

00:54:36.000 Yes.

00:54:37.000 And clearly we can see there is blue here.

00:54:39.000 Do you not perjury us, Mr. Crossland?

00:54:42.000 That's what they're doing.

00:54:43.000 That's what they're doing.

00:54:44.000 The annoying thing is like, dude, stupid people will fall for that.

00:54:48.000 And it's really annoying.

00:54:50.000 If someone says, do you have X?

00:54:53.000 And you go, Usually you say something like, to the best of my recollection, I don't think so.

00:54:57.000 I don't think I have that.

00:54:58.000 Now, I'm not saying Alex is perfect on this one.

00:55:00.000 I'm not here to defend everything he said or done.

00:55:02.000 I'm saying it's really annoying when it's like, perjury almost never happens.

00:55:06.000 Perjury charges?

00:55:07.000 Because it's impossible to prove someone's memory is perfect and they intended to lie.

00:55:11.000 Yeah, like James Clapper when he said they weren't wittingly spying on the American citizens at PRISM.

00:55:16.000 Well, what's the word wittingly?

00:55:17.000 He did say we weren't wittingly doing it, so they were unwittingly spying is basically what it came down to.

00:55:21.000 Perjury!

00:55:22.000 In this instance, they said to Alex, you testified you didn't have emails pertaining to Sandy Hook, and he was like, I may have been mistaken.

00:55:32.000 I don't know.

00:55:32.000 I gave you my phone.

00:55:33.000 I gave you my emails.

00:55:35.000 And then they're just like, did you testify?

00:55:37.000 You did not.

00:55:39.000 And they want him to say yes without any kind of nuance or context.

00:55:43.000 Then he says, do you know what perjury is, Mr. Jones?

00:55:45.000 It's like to taint the jury into believing that perjury was committed when he will never be charged for perjury because the reality is he probably just didn't know.

00:55:56.000 It's crazy to me, you know, we get thousands of emails per day across the board, thousands.

00:56:01.000 You think I know what's in there?

00:56:02.000 Yeah, you never know.

00:56:03.000 So what they'll do is they'll say, do you have emails?

00:56:06.000 And I'll say, I don't know.

00:56:07.000 And they'll be like, okay, well, like you're saying you're unfamiliar with, yes.

00:56:12.000 And then they'll probably be like, boom, there it is.

00:56:14.000 We have it in your database.

00:56:15.000 You had it.

00:56:15.000 And it's like, dude, I don't read those things.

00:56:17.000 Right.

00:56:17.000 I mean, how many unread email messages do you have?

00:56:20.000 I think mine are in the many thousands upon thousands of unread.

00:56:23.000 Easily.

00:56:24.000 Well, I just mark everything as read every day.

00:56:26.000 Just like, just ignore it.

00:56:28.000 I don't do that.

00:56:29.000 I just skip them.

00:56:30.000 You have a company, right?

00:56:32.000 So there's so many email servers that you don't know what's going on with your own company, Tim Pool?

00:56:36.000 That's crazy.

00:56:37.000 Like, it's just an impossible standard.

00:56:39.000 I think Alex, I mean I wonder sometimes with the way the prosecution is proceeding is if they're just trying to get him to feel so irritated he has some outbursts on the stand that can feed a media cycle for a little while.

00:56:52.000 I mean in some ways it just seems like they're trying to get under his skin.

00:56:57.000 They're just trying to destroy... Alex Jones is a huge arsenal for Donald Trump's victory.

00:57:03.000 And so they're trying to just go after him in any way possible to make sure that anybody who's not absolutely in politics won't listen to the man.

00:57:10.000 Now look, Alex does a lot of crazy stuff.

00:57:13.000 The reason we have an Alex Jones was right jar is because he says a lot of crazy stuff.

00:57:18.000 So when he's right, you put the money in the jar.

00:57:20.000 That's the gag.

00:57:21.000 When he went on Rogan and talked about, like, what is it, fourth dimensional, fifth dimensional beings and, like, 5G cell towers and animal-human hybrids, I'm like, okay, it's all crazy.

00:57:30.000 You know what I mean?

00:57:31.000 But there's a lot of things he's talked about, like Epstein, for instance, that he's been right about.

00:57:35.000 And chimeras.

00:57:36.000 They are real.

00:57:37.000 I mean, yeah, that's the thing.

00:57:38.000 It's like, he says things in ways often where you think he's nuts, and then you realize it's true.

00:57:42.000 Like, we had him on the show and he was like, we're all eating cloned beef.

00:57:45.000 And I was like, what?

00:57:45.000 And he's like, yeah, we're cloning cows and then eating it.

00:57:47.000 And I'm like, no, we aren't.

00:57:48.000 That's crazy.

00:57:48.000 And I pulled it up.

00:57:49.000 I'm like, oh, it's actually true.

00:57:51.000 Like, we show the sources saying we do cloned beef.

00:57:55.000 I thought that they already got Alex in a trial for Sandy Hook defamation.

00:57:59.000 Yeah, I thought that's... Didn't we already see this?

00:58:00.000 Three years ago or two years ago.

00:58:02.000 Yeah.

00:58:02.000 But it wasn't... I don't know the full details.

00:58:04.000 Is this civil?

00:58:05.000 I think this is civil.

00:58:06.000 This is the damages hearing.

00:58:07.000 Yeah.

00:58:07.000 Oh, I see.

00:58:08.000 Well, it's all civil.

00:58:08.000 That's the other thing, too.

00:58:09.000 The left thinks there's criminal defamation charges.

00:58:11.000 I'm like, we talking defamation?

00:58:12.000 It's a civil tort.

00:58:13.000 Yeah.

00:58:14.000 I also... I don't think anyone should ever answer yes or no questions.

00:58:18.000 Oh, I agree.

00:58:18.000 It's a manipulation.

00:58:19.000 I don't think that's ever worthwhile.

00:58:21.000 I remember getting into a fight with someone once and they were...

00:58:23.000 Yes or no?

00:58:24.000 Yes or no?

00:58:24.000 I was like, I told, I'm not even gonna agree with the premise of your stupid question.

00:58:28.000 Yeah, no one's, you never have to answer a question the way someone else wants you to.

00:58:31.000 No, that's ridiculous.

00:58:32.000 And you never should.

00:58:33.000 The other thing too is, if someone says like, you know, Ian, do you have a blue rock?

00:58:38.000 You say, to the best of my understanding, I don't believe so.

00:58:41.000 As opposed to no.

00:58:42.000 Right.

00:58:42.000 Because then they're gonna be like, you said no!

00:58:45.000 You said no!

00:58:45.000 It's like, well, I said to the best of my understanding, I must have been wrong.

00:58:47.000 Or why do you want to know what color my rock is?

00:58:49.000 You look at it.

00:58:50.000 I don't know if we're seeing different colors.

00:58:52.000 My green could be your blue.

00:58:53.000 When your doctor asks a question like, do you have wasps under your armpits?

00:58:58.000 You say, not that I know of.

00:58:59.000 You don't say no.

00:59:01.000 Cause he might be a magician and have like a wasp up his sleeve.

00:59:03.000 Or maybe it's coming out of your armpit.

00:59:05.000 He's like, well then what's this?

00:59:07.000 Here it is.

00:59:08.000 Doctor says you're experiencing wasps under your armpits.

00:59:11.000 Anybody who knows that reference will, anyone who understands that reference will earn a prize.

00:59:16.000 No, I don't.

00:59:16.000 I happen to have Marshall McLuhan writing.

00:59:19.000 I'm willing to bet a bunch of people and some people in the chat will totally understand that reference.

00:59:23.000 We'll see though.

00:59:24.000 Adrian Curry.

00:59:25.000 I love Libby.

00:59:27.000 Aw, I love you too, Adrian.

00:59:28.000 Thanks.

00:59:28.000 That was nice.

00:59:29.000 That's very sweet.

00:59:30.000 You know what I was thinking with Alex Jones?

00:59:33.000 This trial is almost meaningless.

00:59:35.000 I feel like Alex could just go on the stand right now and just be like, I'm sorry that it happened.

00:59:40.000 I own up to it.

00:59:41.000 It shouldn't have happened.

00:59:42.000 I apologize.

00:59:44.000 I hope for her forgiveness and I'd love to try and do what I can.

00:59:49.000 And let me know what you think is deserving of the families and we'll do what we can to help them out.

00:59:52.000 Did he have the option to settle out of court?

00:59:54.000 Well, I'm just saying if he did that, no matter what he does, he is still Alex Jones and they can never stop this man.

01:00:01.000 Like, there's literally nothing you can do.

01:00:03.000 Worst case scenario, they would bankrupt him, make him close InfoWars.

01:00:07.000 Is that what they're trying to do?

01:00:08.000 They can't do that.

01:00:08.000 That's not possible.

01:00:09.000 So they just bankrupt him and then you just start making money again.

01:00:12.000 Right.

01:00:12.000 So what they could do is, you know, Alex said anything over $2 million would destroy the company.

01:00:17.000 Considering he got deplatformed, it's entirely possible, but I almost don't know if I believe it because he's syndicated in other places and there's other ways that InfoWars makes money.

01:00:26.000 And I really doubt that his revenue is $2 million.

01:00:29.000 So we'll see.

01:00:31.000 I also bet Alex has been planning for this, knowing that they were going to come after him for large sums of money.

01:00:36.000 He's probably shuffled a bit of his wealth into areas that protect it.

01:00:40.000 We hope so.

01:00:41.000 Give it to your kids.

01:00:42.000 Give it to your kids.

01:00:45.000 You can't just give it to them.

01:00:47.000 It's taxed.

01:00:48.000 But you can do transfers that shield it from lawsuits.

01:00:51.000 Or put it into living trusts.

01:00:53.000 Yeah, trusts are fantastic.

01:00:55.000 Yeah, there's tons of things.

01:00:57.000 But I'm just saying, even if they were to get the $150 million, what happens tomorrow?

01:01:02.000 He goes back in.

01:01:03.000 He does his show.

01:01:04.000 Now, they might force liquidate his asses or something, but all the man needs is a cell phone.

01:01:10.000 And they, what are they going to do?

01:01:11.000 Like, we're taking your phone now from you.

01:01:13.000 It's like, you can't, phone costs 20 bucks.

01:01:15.000 Do you think they just want to be able to say, like, he was convicted of defamation, Alex Jones, who was convicted of defamation, and be able to have that be the soundbite and sort of his official moniker for a little while?

01:01:25.000 So like, again, not that they could necessarily pull it off, but to trash his credibility and try and What does that do?

01:01:31.000 I mean, I don't think it would do anything, but maybe they feel like if they can rock

01:01:37.000 the boat on Alex Jones's supporters, they can gain some sort of influence over popular

01:01:41.000 narrative and culture.

01:01:42.000 I don't know.

01:01:43.000 Probably.

01:01:44.000 It's a short-sighted goal, but it might be because I don't, other than that, think it's

01:01:45.000 a good thing.

01:01:45.000 goal but it might be because I don't other than that They just want the money But I mean what you can't get blood out of a stone 150 million if he only has 2 million revenue like well, I will say I think Alex Jones likely has more money than He's letting on but I also think the other side in this is not playing fair At all.

01:02:05.000 It's the the process is the punishment kind of thing, right?

01:02:07.000 They're just raking him through it and Yeah, so like one of the things he said was, this is what they do, this is how they get you.

01:02:14.000 He said he doesn't do email.

01:02:15.000 He doesn't have email.

01:02:16.000 And then they were like, here's a text showing you sending an email.

01:02:19.000 And he was like, oh, that's like a personal thing dictated to my assistant.

01:02:21.000 And they're like, ah, but you said you didn't have email.

01:02:23.000 And it's like, dude, oh, are you serious?

01:02:26.000 Yeah.

01:02:27.000 Like if someone's, if you're like, I don't have an email account, but like one time you might have sent one or two, that's just, then they, they argue, it's perjury and all that stuff.

01:02:35.000 And I'm just like, I'm so annoyed by it.

01:02:37.000 Because if anyone who's sane and rational looks at the nuance, outright would just be like, yeah, he screwed this one up.

01:02:43.000 You know, these families suffered enough.

01:02:45.000 Let's sort this one out.

01:02:46.000 Instead, you've got the opposing lawyer is like one of the worst people I've ever heard speak.

01:02:51.000 And then everyone's just flinging crap at each other.

01:02:54.000 And I'm like, nobody looks good here.

01:02:56.000 Well, a big part of what we have going on now, too.

01:02:59.000 It's not just Alex Jones, but it's, you know, January 6th Committee, the Department of Justice.

01:03:04.000 The idea is going after not just people who worked with Trump, but anyone who supported him.

01:03:11.000 And we're seeing that across our justice system.

01:03:14.000 I really don't like this sentiment of, I don't like that guy and I don't like what I was told he did.

01:03:19.000 Throw him in prison.

01:03:21.000 Or at least just legally torture him.

01:03:24.000 Yeah, really.

01:03:25.000 It is kind of like a psychological torture.

01:03:27.000 It's like the trial.

01:03:29.000 Did you read that?

01:03:30.000 No.

01:03:30.000 The Kafka.

01:03:31.000 So this guy is brought up on charges and nobody ever tells him what it is that he did.

01:03:38.000 And it just goes on like that.

01:03:40.000 It's very, well, it's Kafka-esque is what it is.

01:03:42.000 What's up with this dude they just said they destroyed with a drone bomb?

01:03:45.000 Al-Aulaqi?

01:03:46.000 No, not Al-Aulaqi, that's the kiddo.

01:03:47.000 Oh, this was the Monday thing?

01:03:49.000 Zawahiri?

01:03:49.000 Yeah, Zawahiri.

01:03:50.000 And I'm like, didn't they already kill that guy a decade ago?

01:03:53.000 Is this like 1984 where they're always at war with a country overseas and it's like every 10 years they're like, we are, we have found the terrorist finally, we've killed him.

01:04:01.000 Like, didn't you get that guy 10 years ago?

01:04:03.000 What's weird too is a year ago Biden said that Al-Qaeda wasn't in.

01:04:06.000 Afghanistan, right?

01:04:10.000 And now they're saying, and now they're like, oh, they're still in Afghanistan.

01:04:14.000 It's like, well, why'd you say that a year ago?

01:04:16.000 Because a year ago he was going to pull out the troops, right?

01:04:18.000 Yeah.

01:04:19.000 And then they got 13 service members killed.

01:04:23.000 It went very badly.

01:04:24.000 They retreated and then he, well, they routed and surrendered and now they're back there?

01:04:28.000 Yeah, they said that they were going to work with the Taliban to make sure there was no Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan.

01:04:33.000 Excellent.

01:04:34.000 And I remember at the time, me and literally everybody else was like, oh, you're trusting these guys now?

01:04:41.000 You're trusting these guys to make sure that there aren't terrorists and they're like, they are terrorists.

01:04:45.000 Whatever reason, like lightning striking me, I no longer believe or trust when I'm told in the news that they got a terrorist leader.

01:04:53.000 I don't believe it anymore.

01:04:54.000 I don't even know if the guy was alive to begin with.

01:04:55.000 I see no proof.

01:04:56.000 They say that he and his family were living in Kabul.

01:04:59.000 I believe that.

01:05:00.000 I think that's what I remember hearing a description of like it was so they they he walked out onto the balcony and they were able to take him out.

01:05:07.000 Right.

01:05:08.000 And it didn't cause any structural harm.

01:05:10.000 They didn't have to hurt anyone in his family because sometimes they'll just drop a bomb and like.

01:05:14.000 Right.

01:05:14.000 I mean I think they're saying like it was so a show of how clear our how strong our military is and how advanced our technology is and I I just feel like that's a weird stance.

01:05:25.000 Like all of it felt strange.

01:05:27.000 Yeah, very likely if they blew up a building or a complex to get this guy that other people were involved

01:05:32.000 in getting killed.

01:05:33.000 They did though.

01:05:33.000 That was the like.

01:05:34.000 And it's what they told us they didn't.

01:05:36.000 They said, no, we just got the one guy.

01:05:38.000 Don't worry.

01:05:38.000 It's like, I want this guy on trial.

01:05:41.000 I want to stop killing people because the war on terror is over.

01:05:44.000 We ended it 15 years ago or eight years ago.

01:05:46.000 But how do you get him on trial?

01:05:48.000 I agree with you.

01:05:49.000 I don't think we should be going around committing these kinds of things.

01:05:52.000 But how would you get him on trial?

01:05:54.000 No one would extradite him.

01:05:55.000 What trial?

01:05:56.000 What court?

01:05:57.000 So take a look at this story from November 17th, 2020.

01:06:00.000 The death of Ayman al-Zawahiri in the future of Al-Qaeda.

01:06:03.000 Daniel L. Beiman.

01:06:05.000 I suppose the issue was that they assumed he was dead.

01:06:09.000 And so, later on, the news comes out and they're like, okay, no, now he's actually dead.

01:06:14.000 So that's, that's, that's what I think you're referring to.

01:06:16.000 They could be like, oh, he's actually alive.

01:06:17.000 We didn't get him.

01:06:18.000 Oh, wait, we got him.

01:06:18.000 But it's like, this just- They said they have no confirmation.

01:06:21.000 They have no DNA confirmation.

01:06:22.000 Okay, no confirmation.

01:06:23.000 Maybe they'll get him in a couple years next time.

01:06:25.000 Yeah, maybe next time when he's back that they'll get him this time.

01:06:28.000 And then, then we can have faith in our government that it's doing the right thing.

01:06:32.000 What, that we're just bombing and killing guys is not the right thing.

01:06:36.000 There's no declared war.

01:06:37.000 This is not- But Congress is toothless.

01:06:39.000 They won't do anything.

01:06:40.000 So how would they, how are they possibly going to declare war?

01:06:44.000 I don't think anybody's in charge.

01:06:46.000 They can't even agree on like helping veterans, you know?

01:06:50.000 I think everybody's just screaming at each other and clawing for power.

01:06:55.000 Nobody's really in charge.

01:06:56.000 If anyone's in charge, it's Xi Jinping.

01:06:58.000 Like, not that he controls everything.

01:07:01.000 He's being run by somebody, too.

01:07:03.000 Well, I mean, to a certain degree, he's got the party and he's trying to maintain confidence among the people who are around him.

01:07:10.000 But what I mean is, no one, there's no control.

01:07:14.000 There's no single group just controlling everything.

01:07:16.000 They're trying to.

01:07:17.000 Yeah.

01:07:17.000 And Xi Jinping probably has the most power of any individual, but not necessarily the most power of any group.

01:07:24.000 You know what I mean?

01:07:25.000 And Putin as well.

01:07:25.000 The bankers have a lot of power, like the Bank for International Settlements.

01:07:28.000 I don't know what their military capabilities are, though.

01:07:30.000 They can have private military and they have access to weapons and stuff, but they're not a nation state.

01:07:36.000 The corporations seem to have a lot of power as well.

01:07:38.000 Yeah, and they're kind of run by the bankers that are fluentizing their capital.

01:07:44.000 And they also just do whatever they're told by whatever government, whatever nation they are, you know, invested in.

01:07:51.000 This is the ESG stuff. You know, look at Nike, right? Nike will do one thing in China. They'll do something else here

01:07:58.000 Look at the way that the whole pride month thing goes, right?

01:08:00.000 So like in in western europe and in the u.s You have all of these companies being like yay pride stuff

01:08:06.000 And then if you look at their same advertising in saudi arabia, it's like no pride. It's maga maga month, you know

01:08:12.000 For MAGA Month, none of our international accounts changed their pictures to American flags.

01:08:16.000 Really?

01:08:16.000 That's disappointing.

01:08:18.000 Well, I mean, we don't want to offend other countries.

01:08:21.000 And we don't have any international accounts.

01:08:25.000 But I took the American flag off of my account because MAGA Month is over.

01:08:29.000 That's what you're supposed to do.

01:08:30.000 You only fly the flag in support during the one month and then you're done.

01:08:34.000 Done my duty.

01:08:35.000 Now everybody knows I support America and, you know, back to work.

01:08:38.000 Is there a Ukraine pride flag that has, like, all of it?

01:08:41.000 Yeah, there is a pride flag with Ukraine on it, right?

01:08:44.000 Yeah, but was it real?

01:08:46.000 I've never seen it in public.

01:08:47.000 I've only seen it on the internet, and who knows what's real on the internet?

01:08:50.000 Oh, so a lot of these flags are just graphics.

01:08:51.000 Is that what it's turned into?

01:08:52.000 Oh, of course.

01:08:53.000 I mean, all flags are graphics.

01:08:55.000 Well, but, like, some of them, no one actually made into a flag.

01:08:59.000 The crazy thing is, like, is there a committee that decides the pride flag?

01:09:02.000 Like, all of a sudden, one day, someone's like, this is more inclusive, and then people just start using it.

01:09:06.000 Well, there are people who invent all of these flags.

01:09:10.000 Like, if you dig down, it's always somebody invented it.

01:09:13.000 We need a flag.

01:09:17.000 We need to make our own flag.

01:09:18.000 Gotta get a flag bearer.

01:09:19.000 I love this idea.

01:09:20.000 For people who like reading books during thunderstorms.

01:09:23.000 Oh, that's cute.

01:09:23.000 It would have a lightning bolt on it.

01:09:25.000 That'll go over really well.

01:09:26.000 And it'll be gray and blue stripes.

01:09:29.000 And we'll hold it up like, ahhh!

01:09:32.000 Angrily and like people start throwing bricks at like Barnes & Noble for some reason.

01:09:36.000 You gotta be careful with the lightning bolts though.

01:09:38.000 Why is that?

01:09:39.000 Isn't that like a Nazi thing?

01:09:40.000 No, but it'll be like a rainstorm.

01:09:43.000 It won't be alone.

01:09:44.000 It'll be with a cloud.

01:09:45.000 It'll be like a cloud.

01:09:46.000 My point is like whatever you identify for yourself.

01:09:49.000 Like a care bear.

01:09:50.000 It'll be like a care bear.

01:09:51.000 Yeah, like a care bear.

01:09:53.000 I mean, it's sort of like when people had family crests, right?

01:09:56.000 Like they had something to represent it.

01:09:57.000 Like, we just need a crest.

01:09:58.000 We got to bring those back.

01:09:59.000 You'll feel better.

01:10:00.000 A lion.

01:10:03.000 Yeah, that's an eagle.

01:10:04.000 We were talking about the Rothschilds earlier, like who's running the show, the banking industry.

01:10:07.000 Rothschild is like, it kind of began in the 1500s.

01:10:09.000 Well, it didn't begin, but modern banking with those guys.

01:10:12.000 But Rothschild means red shield.

01:10:14.000 It was before they had addresses.

01:10:15.000 It was just all symbols and stuff.

01:10:17.000 And they had a red shield on the front of the house.

01:10:19.000 They're like, now they are the red shields.

01:10:21.000 So let's do that again.

01:10:22.000 Well, that's sort of what we're doing, right?

01:10:23.000 With red and blue.

01:10:25.000 We have like red states and blue states.

01:10:27.000 But if you go back in history, it's always like that.

01:10:29.000 It's like it's always one group identifies with one color and the opposing group has a different color.

01:10:35.000 And that's how they that's how they proceed in all of the wars and conflicts.

01:10:39.000 Yeah.

01:10:40.000 How we get all that cool tartan in Scotland.

01:10:41.000 Crests are too complicated.

01:10:43.000 Just pick a color.

01:10:44.000 Purple.

01:10:44.000 OK, I'll be purple.

01:10:45.000 There you go.

01:10:46.000 Done.

01:10:46.000 I want to peel it off.

01:10:48.000 Peel it back and then you see the red underneath or something like that.

01:10:51.000 Periwinkle.

01:10:52.000 Okay, next time we're on the show, everyone better have a crest.

01:10:54.000 Dude, if you could fly a flag that was like a magnifying glass and get it the light just right so it shines down and shows you where the gold is, that'd be awesome.

01:11:02.000 The thing about a crest, though, is it's like we're supposed to hate our ancestors.

01:11:06.000 What if we started identifying with them?

01:11:08.000 You should have ancestor month now.

01:11:09.000 Right?

01:11:10.000 We're supposed to hate them because they were also evil.

01:11:13.000 Well, I don't know.

01:11:13.000 Maga month was July because you know, 4th of July.

01:11:16.000 Ancestor month could be, could be August.

01:11:18.000 Who do you think was the best evil villain from back in the day?

01:11:22.000 Which, which day?

01:11:23.000 Yeah.

01:11:23.000 Like if you had to pick one, but like, what do you mean by villain?

01:11:25.000 Like maybe Rasputin.

01:11:27.000 Like killer.

01:11:27.000 Yeah.

01:11:28.000 He was pretty nasty.

01:11:29.000 Yeah.

01:11:29.000 Manipulated the royal family.

01:11:29.000 He was just crazy.

01:11:31.000 Yeah.

01:11:31.000 Well, he was a weird, crazy priest.

01:11:33.000 Hopped up on goofballs.

01:11:34.000 He sure was.

01:11:35.000 Lots of goofballs.

01:11:39.000 Didn't they try to poison him like a half dozen times and it didn't take?

01:11:42.000 That might be apocryphal.

01:11:43.000 Really?

01:11:44.000 Yeah.

01:11:45.000 Like they tried to kill a bunch of different ways and he wouldn't die.

01:11:47.000 Well, it's important to hang on to the good myths, but they did, uh, they did try and kill the royal family, the women and they, they, the bullets were bouncing off them.

01:11:56.000 That's real.

01:11:56.000 What?

01:11:57.000 Yeah.

01:11:57.000 Because they had sewed all the gems into their gowns.

01:12:01.000 Oh.

01:12:01.000 So when they tried to, to, you know, sneak some wealth out of the palace as they were getting rounded up.

01:12:06.000 And they were, they were shooting with like 22s or something or what?

01:12:08.000 I don't know what they were shooting the Russian royal family with, but I do know that the women had gems sewn into their gowns.

01:12:14.000 I think a lot of the guns they had back in the day were like .22s.

01:12:17.000 I could be wrong though.

01:12:18.000 Musket balls.

01:12:19.000 Those are .50 caliber muskets.

01:12:23.000 That'll put a ten inch hole in your chest.

01:12:24.000 I don't know if the gems are going to protect you from that.

01:12:27.000 Let's talk about this movie.

01:12:29.000 Let me see if I can find this one.

01:12:31.000 Here we go.

01:12:32.000 This is from the Daily Mail.

01:12:34.000 Holy wokery, Batgirl!

01:12:36.000 Tom Leonard investigates why Warner Brothers' $90 million new superhero movie has been deemed so awful it will never be released.

01:12:42.000 So I saw this and I really want to talk about it because it's a massive get woke, go broke.

01:12:48.000 Apparently they put $90 million into a Batgirl film that was super woke and they canceled it because when they showed it to people, the people said, this is a terrible movie and you shouldn't have made it.

01:12:57.000 And so they scrapped it.

01:12:58.000 That's a lot of money to scrap.

01:13:00.000 I kind of want to see it now.

01:13:01.000 I, yeah, apparently that's what's happening.

01:13:03.000 People are saying, like, give us the film and we'll finish it.

01:13:05.000 Let us see.

01:13:06.000 But I bet it's really bad.

01:13:08.000 Yeah.

01:13:08.000 I bet it, like... I think we can't hate watch stuff or even, like, curiosity watch stuff.

01:13:13.000 Like, then they'll be like, oh, so you did buy a ticket, so we should make this.

01:13:17.000 Like, if they canceled it, just let it go.

01:13:18.000 Like, it's probably good.

01:13:21.000 They say the audience feedback was so awful that in an almost unprecedented move, Warner Bros.

01:13:25.000 has decided the reputational damage of releasing such a dud would be even worse than wasting the tens of millions of dollars it already spent on it.

01:13:32.000 It just didn't work, said an insider.

01:13:34.000 The decision is also a blow for Glasgow, which had stood in for Gotham City in the movie.

01:13:42.000 Okay, that's weird.

01:13:43.000 Who was the lead?

01:13:44.000 I don't know, but this costume looks like it's, like, crappy cosplay.

01:13:49.000 Well they already failed because we all know that female superheroes are supposed to wear mini skirts and stuff.

01:13:56.000 But then that's like over sexualizing her so like can't do that either.

01:14:00.000 They trapped themselves into a corner where they couldn't market this film.

01:14:04.000 It's not clear who this audience is for.

01:14:06.000 I think this may be the end of what was in movies.

01:14:09.000 I think this shows that they spent a ton of money, realized they made garbage that nobody wanted.

01:14:17.000 I mean, how long did it take for people to finally realize when they're like, you know, Maybe your average dude doesn't want to see a super ripped woman punching people in the face.

01:14:26.000 Maybe... And your average woman doesn't want to see that either.

01:14:29.000 Exactly.

01:14:30.000 You know, I think it was... it might have been Bill Burr?

01:14:34.000 Or I can't remember which comedian it was.

01:14:36.000 He's funny.

01:14:37.000 They said that the WNBA should... where are all the feminists?

01:14:40.000 All the feminists should be out there watching the WNBA, but there's nobody there!

01:14:43.000 Where the woman at?

01:14:44.000 Nobody watches it!

01:14:45.000 Because nobody cares.

01:14:45.000 Right.

01:14:46.000 I don't want to watch it.

01:14:47.000 Exactly.

01:14:48.000 I don't want to watch Men's Battle Polymer.

01:14:50.000 What is this obsession with, like, creating men's things for women that women don't want and men don't want?

01:14:55.000 This is such a weird thing, too, and especially in films and, you know, narrative, because what they do is they say, let's take this character that is a male character and let's just turn it into a female character and do exactly the same things with it that we would do with a male character and then it's like, you know, feminist and forward-thinking and progressive and all of that.

01:15:14.000 But if you're going to build a female character, you have to build a female character that is female at the core.

01:15:19.000 You can't just like gloss over, you know, you can't just like basically trans a male character in a narrative.

01:15:26.000 I think I know how to do it.

01:15:28.000 How to trans a male character?

01:15:29.000 How to make Batgirl work for women.

01:15:32.000 Here's what you do.

01:15:33.000 It's Batgirl, right?

01:15:35.000 She's a crime-fighting superhero.

01:15:37.000 And then she starts dating Batman and he like is totally into BDSM and is like choking her and stuff.

01:15:44.000 You know, like, because Fifty Shades of Grey.

01:15:46.000 I mean, women love that!

01:15:47.000 Okay, but the perfect one was the Michael Keaton Batman with, who was it?

01:15:53.000 Was it Michelle Pfeiffer was Catwoman?

01:15:56.000 That was great.

01:15:57.000 It was romantic.

01:15:58.000 It was, it was action-y.

01:16:00.000 She was cool.

01:16:01.000 Everyone wanted to be Catwoman that Halloween.

01:16:04.000 But it's Catwoman, it's not Cat, and there's no Catman.

01:16:06.000 Because it's like, that's a female character from the core.

01:16:08.000 We should make Catman.

01:16:09.000 Yeah, but every grade school kid knows that, you know, cats are girls and dogs are boys.

01:16:14.000 Can't explain these things just the way it is.

01:16:16.000 But it is, it's weird.

01:16:18.000 Everyone thinks cats are girls.

01:16:19.000 I'm like, I don't understand.

01:16:20.000 You've got the feline, female.

01:16:22.000 It's like, we have Bocas, and people are like, what's her name?

01:16:26.000 And I'm like, it's a dude.

01:16:27.000 I mean, he's a eunuch, but he's a dude.

01:16:30.000 Eunuchs are still dudes.

01:16:32.000 No, but my point was like, if you were going to make a... Women want different things, right?

01:16:38.000 I made this point a couple days ago.

01:16:39.000 I made it several times the past week.

01:16:40.000 When I was on this plane and we got hit by wind and we fell like 50 feet, you just drop, every single man on the plane screams, not a single male did.

01:16:50.000 Because like, men and women are different.

01:16:52.000 Yeah, I would scream probably.

01:16:53.000 What is the screaming from?

01:16:55.000 Mostly I would gasp.

01:16:56.000 I don't know, but when I was a kid... Like, why do they scream?

01:16:59.000 The hypothesis from evolutionary psychology is that if a bear, if a threat, if a woman perceives a threat and she doesn't scream, she's more likely to die.

01:17:08.000 So screaming alerts the males of danger.

01:17:09.000 Crying does as well.

01:17:10.000 And they had kids.

01:17:11.000 The screamers had the babies.

01:17:12.000 The little girls in my neighborhood when I was a kid would have screaming contests.

01:17:16.000 Oh wow.

01:17:17.000 Yeah to make sure and it would be dusk and I would be like at home because I had to be home by dusk and I would hear like these screaming and the neighbors would get so mad everyone be like you kids stop screaming we think something's wrong with you think something's wrong you think you need help and they were like it's just a screaming contest Mr. Lorio.

01:17:37.000 We would have peeing contests.

01:17:39.000 We didn't do that.

01:17:39.000 No, I can tell you.

01:17:41.000 Up on top of the clubhouse.

01:17:43.000 That's weird.

01:17:43.000 Yeah, I'd win a lot of those.

01:17:45.000 Congratulations.

01:17:46.000 Get it into the cemetery.

01:17:47.000 Thanks.

01:17:47.000 Into the cemetery?

01:17:48.000 Yeah, we had a cemetery in our backyard.

01:17:50.000 You were pissing onto graves?

01:17:51.000 Never made it to a grave.

01:17:52.000 Oh, okay.

01:17:53.000 It's a little too far out.

01:17:54.000 That's horrifying.

01:17:55.000 Anyway, my point was, I saw this story, I want to talk about it because I'm thinking like, it's been over a decade since the rise of wokeness.

01:18:03.000 And now we see like critical race theory, critical gender theory, but this is huge.

01:18:07.000 Because if they're willing to tank $90 million without, and they don't want anyone to see this, you know, maybe they're starting to realize it.

01:18:14.000 This stuff doesn't work.

01:18:15.000 The old stories are not bad stories.

01:18:17.000 The old narratives are there for a reason.

01:18:19.000 They've lasted thousands of years for reasons.

01:18:22.000 It's because we relate to them.

01:18:23.000 We understand them.

01:18:24.000 It's because they're part of the narrative that we use to tell ourselves the story of humanity and the story of our lives.

01:18:30.000 Did you guys catch Tomb Raider or ever follow that game or movie?

01:18:34.000 What's her name played?

01:18:36.000 Angelina Jolie.

01:18:38.000 Is there like any desire or interest in like a woman with a sword that's a badass fighter?

01:18:43.000 For men, I feel like that.

01:18:45.000 I recently watched Tomb Raider because it was recommended on Amazon and it's clearly just a movie for dudes.

01:18:52.000 Like Angelina Jolie's boobs are like mushed forward and pointy like the Tomb Raider character because they only had polygons or whatever.

01:18:58.000 They had very few polygons.

01:18:59.000 And there's actually, like, a scene of her just naked in the shower for no reason.

01:19:04.000 Yeah.

01:19:04.000 It's like, the movie was clearly not for girls to be like, yeah, like, I'm gonna be strong like her.

01:19:08.000 And I was like, dude's watching a big-breasted woman.

01:19:10.000 But there are, like, there are fun movies that are, like, action-y, rom-com-y type movies.

01:19:16.000 Like, I was thinking about this the other day.

01:19:18.000 Remember?

01:19:18.000 Shaun of the Dead.

01:19:19.000 Shaun of the Dead was great.

01:19:20.000 Romantic comedy with zombies.

01:19:22.000 There you go.

01:19:23.000 I love that movie.

01:19:24.000 See?

01:19:24.000 Boom.

01:19:24.000 There it is.

01:19:25.000 Make more.

01:19:25.000 I've been told I have bad taste in movies.

01:19:27.000 I love that movie.

01:19:28.000 That movie's fantastic.

01:19:29.000 It's great.

01:19:31.000 But what was I saying before I got sidetracked by that movie?

01:19:34.000 Oh!

01:19:34.000 You remember how there used to be all those old movies with Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner?

01:19:41.000 What are you talking about?

01:19:43.000 What's an example?

01:19:43.000 What's one of them?

01:19:44.000 Ant-Man!

01:19:45.000 He's in that.

01:19:46.000 They did a movie called Romancing the Stone, which was kind of like Indiana Jones, but they were teamed up at the beginning, and they hated each other, and then they fall in love, and everybody gets soaking wet in the waterfall, and there's diamonds and things, and then they go off on some paradise because they're rich now, you know?

01:20:02.000 Is this what women fantasize about?

01:20:03.000 This is this is like what these movies were and they did very well.

01:20:06.000 Now they're like, let's just have a woman be like a super ripped muscular boxer.

01:20:11.000 Yeah, who hates men.

01:20:13.000 Yeah.

01:20:13.000 And has absolutely and you can't tell at all what her priorities are or what she wants in life.

01:20:18.000 Like what do these characters want?

01:20:20.000 And the men are one-dimensional, and they're like, you can't be a boxer, you're a woman!

01:20:23.000 According to Romance in the Stone, they want overcoming miscommunication, so like they didn't like each other, then they realize, oh, we actually do like each other.

01:20:30.000 They want adventure, and to be rich, and then to retire in comfort.

01:20:36.000 And to look good.

01:20:36.000 And to look fine while you're doing it.

01:20:38.000 Yeah, like Kathleen Turner in the 80s.

01:20:40.000 There was a meme that might not be true, but someone posted on the internet, and it went viral, they said, the male power fantasy is to save Everyone, the children, the women, other men to put the fire out to be a superhero.

01:20:53.000 That's why guys love these movies, war movies.

01:20:55.000 It's to like save everyone.

01:20:57.000 And the female power fantasy is to be able to do whatever you want without consequences.

01:21:01.000 So in like a lot of romantic comedies, it's about the bumbling, you know, woman who just gets what she wants in the end, you know, through misadventure or something.

01:21:09.000 I'd argue that the woman in, I don't remember her name, but Gone Girl, like that female character is crazy to me.

01:21:15.000 I would watch her all day long because she gets to do whatever she wants because she's operating on a really intense psychological level.

01:21:22.000 I think women, I have never really been interested in watching girls fight like physical combat with women if you're if that's what you want to watch fine, but I don't think it has the same appeal for a female character as seeing female characters control a situation psychologically or through emotion.

01:21:39.000 I think that's much more of a feminine trait than seeing them punch someone and that's why when you see really well-written characters they are in some ways reflective of true gender norms.

01:21:51.000 I think that's really interesting.

01:21:52.000 I keep thinking about Game of Thrones.

01:21:54.000 You probably have seen it, if not.

01:21:56.000 But there's this character called Brienne of Tarth.

01:21:58.000 There was this woman that was like a warrior, and she was huge.

01:22:01.000 She's like 6'5 or something.

01:22:03.000 And she's pretty big for a woman, but they put her in this armor, and she could barely

01:22:06.000 move in the armor.

01:22:07.000 It was like grating and embarrassing to watch.

01:22:10.000 And society didn't want to talk about how horribly awkward it was to put this woman in this massive heavy armor.

01:22:16.000 She could barely move, but they were just like trying to shove it down my throat.

01:22:20.000 Like, this is what a woman warrior, like, dude, at least like put her in something she can carry.

01:22:26.000 So it doesn't look embarrassing.

01:22:27.000 Like, oh, it's just disgusting to watch.

01:22:30.000 It was really, really piss poor that they did that.

01:22:33.000 I'm sorry you had to watch that.

01:22:35.000 I didn't even realize how bad it was until halfway through this.

01:22:38.000 I was watching and I was like, I just can't lie to myself anymore.

01:22:41.000 The casting of Brie Larson as Captain Marvel, for those that are familiar, just made literally no sense to me because she's like a short, frail woman who's supposed to be this great warrior, this massively super powerful being.

01:22:53.000 And I'm just like, pick your narrative, man.

01:22:56.000 What are you going for?

01:22:58.000 You're going for a short, very thin, frail woman They might as well have cast Kristen Chenoweth instead.

01:23:04.000 I don't know, man.

01:23:06.000 I think all this stuff's going to start backfiring on them.

01:23:08.000 Well, because no one wants to see it.

01:23:10.000 What was it?

01:23:12.000 Top Gun?

01:23:14.000 That did great, right?

01:23:15.000 It was fairly generic.

01:23:16.000 They didn't even mention the name of the enemy country, but I think they did the same thing in the first Top Gun anyway.

01:23:20.000 And it was good.

01:23:21.000 It was just like a regular movie.

01:23:23.000 I thought what you said was very insightful that women, their power fantasy is manipulating people, as opposed to the man is fighting people.

01:23:30.000 Because like, I've been listening to a lot of psychologists, I think Jordan Peterson and other people have been talking about women, like high school girls will, their power thing is they will manipulate others and make other girls feel bad about themselves.

01:23:40.000 Whereas the guys will bully.

01:23:42.000 I mean you hear people say like with men and women like women are grudge holders right and like the idea it's kind of a stereotype but like guys if the if the argument gets really heated eventually they'll just throw punches and then it's kind of over right they have a way to physically de-escalate a situation where if with women we don't I mean some girls do I guess but like for the most part they aren't as prone to physical violence they are much more prone to like social and emotional manipulation because they are in some ways more in tune to that naturally and so like I just have never really understood these

01:24:16.000 Like, why the push to have women be physical fighters when they actually are crazy in another realm?

01:24:23.000 Like, they can be distracted elsewhere?

01:24:24.000 Maybe that's why, yeah.

01:24:25.000 Didn't Oceans 8 make a bunch of money?

01:24:27.000 The all-female reboot of Oceans 11, like, actually did really well.

01:24:30.000 I thought it was bad.

01:24:31.000 Oh, I didn't see it.

01:24:32.000 Yeah, I think it actually made a lot of money.

01:24:33.000 John Mulaney had this joke about, before it came out, like you could never have an all-female cast of whatever Ocean's movie because women, you know, there would be seven of them and then two would split off to talk, you know, talk about the rest of them.

01:24:47.000 It doesn't work.

01:24:48.000 It's not reflective.

01:24:49.000 I mean, with Thor, Love and Thunder, we talked like natalie portman got a lot of heat for like her arms actually it's right for the cgi whatever but that was interesting i think to a certain extent yeah i mean she's petite like even in i from i'm not an expert please no one judge me on this but like from the comic books it's actually like a six foot tall kind of like

01:25:11.000 much more athletic looking.

01:25:12.000 I imagine like a volleyball player body type.

01:25:15.000 And they chose that.

01:25:16.000 I mean maybe Natalie Portman is perfect for a lot of other reasons.

01:25:19.000 I can't speak to casting.

01:25:20.000 They cast her in the role.

01:25:21.000 Right.

01:25:21.000 But they were like it's better to have this very petite woman and then it kind of defies expectations because she's actually a great warrior or something.

01:25:29.000 Like I don't understand why this is appealing at all.

01:25:32.000 I don't I don't think it's that interesting.

01:25:34.000 There's another there's another like I think woman's power fantasy too that I think is very taboo to talk about

01:25:42.000 these days, but that we can hear in, you know, old pop music, for example, like if you

01:25:47.000 look at Amy Winehouse on Holy War, right?

01:25:50.000 So the fantasy in that song is that she's going to back her man no matter what.

01:25:54.000 If you look at like a song that I recently remembered and started listening to, I was

01:25:58.000 like, oh, this is great.

01:25:59.000 Midnight Train to Georgia, right?

01:26:01.000 Gladys Knight.

01:26:02.000 She's singing about how this man she's in love with is leaving LA because his dreams

01:26:07.000 didn't turn out right and he's going back to Georgia and she's like, I'm totally going

01:26:11.000 with him.

01:26:12.000 You know, I would never not go with him.

01:26:13.000 Songwriting is so much better.

01:26:14.000 You know, songwriting is great.

01:26:16.000 But Amy Winehouse and, you know, Gladys Knight and there's others, you know, like you hear

01:26:19.000 it I think in some Aretha songs as well.

01:26:22.000 But this idea that the fantasy isn't about your own aggrandizement or your own, you know, success or power manipulation, but, you know, your greatness lies in boosting your man, you know, and like the whole power behind the throne thing.

01:26:40.000 Yeah, I mean, I think, I say manipulation, but like really women, if you think of like the stereotype of like hunter-gatherer, right?

01:26:46.000 The men go out and they have to, like, be physical.

01:26:48.000 They have to hunt and capture things.

01:26:50.000 But women stay home and basically hang out with the other women and the kids, and they have to keep an eye on what's going on.

01:26:55.000 Like, there is a different skill set that's needed to do that.

01:26:59.000 I don't—I mean, maybe they would fight in the village, but for the most part you really have to learn how to navigate socially.

01:27:05.000 That's why— Sorry.

01:27:07.000 Just take a look at the noble domesticated fowl.

01:27:10.000 Oh yes, the chicken.

01:27:11.000 The chicken.

01:27:12.000 And the rooster.

01:27:13.000 And now the rooster will run into danger, sacrificing himself to protect the hens.

01:27:18.000 When you watch the chickens eating, all the ladies are like pecking the ground and the rooster's standing upright just looking around.

01:27:24.000 He's like, ain't nobody coming near my ladies.

01:27:26.000 That's really sweet.

01:27:27.000 Yeah, it does seem that way.

01:27:28.000 At first.

01:27:28.000 Yeah, it does seem that way.

01:27:30.000 At first.

01:27:31.000 At first.

01:27:32.000 But it is, it is.

01:27:33.000 I mean, and then he takes what he wants.

01:27:35.000 Sure.

01:27:36.000 You know what I'm saying?

01:27:37.000 And the chickens just, you know, they're like, oh, here he goes.

01:27:38.000 It's the chicken harem.

01:27:39.000 Yeah.

01:27:40.000 Do you think they think like, here he comes when he comes walking in the room?

01:27:43.000 Sometimes they run and it's like really, really crazy to watch.

01:27:47.000 Like the chickens are like just frantic and the rooster's chasing them.

01:27:50.000 But no, like if a fox shows up, the rooster will run straight at it knowing it will die, giving the hens time to flee.

01:27:57.000 Have you seen this?

01:27:58.000 Has this happened on Chicken City?

01:27:59.000 We had a hawk attack.

01:28:01.000 No way.

01:28:01.000 And the rooster ran towards the gate and then stood in front of it making noises as the hens all ran in and then he went in last.

01:28:08.000 Wow.

01:28:08.000 Yeah, it was crazy to watch.

01:28:10.000 He was like, not gonna go in until all the girls were inside.

01:28:12.000 That's cool.

01:28:13.000 But like, the hens are really dumb.

01:28:15.000 So I think what he was doing was he went to the door, it was a small little door, To show them where it was, so they'll follow him and then he waits outside for them to get safe.

01:28:24.000 And then the hawk, I think the hawk actually got, hit one of our chickens and then wasn't able to get off with it.

01:28:30.000 And then the, you know, the rooster, Roberto, but Roberto has been retired.

01:28:34.000 He was just, he was banging his daughters too much.

01:28:36.000 Yeah, you can't let that go.

01:28:38.000 Well, in chicken society, it's called line breeding.

01:28:40.000 It's kind of okay, but when he has too many kids, then it's like, okay, buddy, you're off.

01:28:46.000 But no thanks.

01:28:48.000 You were right about Ocean's 8, the all-women sequel.

01:28:51.000 It budgeted $70 million to make, and they made $300 million worldwide.

01:28:55.000 Because it was about a bunch of women who are manipulative and catty and stole a bunch of money from dudes.

01:29:01.000 It made slightly less than Ocean's 13, but it also cost slightly less to make.

01:29:05.000 See, there you go.

01:29:07.000 So you want to do a movie about women, make them sly and manipulative.

01:29:12.000 People are going to be all down for it.

01:29:13.000 Oh, and tell women's stories as opposed to like just grafting women on top of men's stories.

01:29:18.000 Yeah, I like the idea of supporting the man only because the man then supports the children.

01:29:22.000 Yeah, I mean this is an old story, right?

01:29:23.000 This is like an old classic narrative like the there's the Bible story.

01:29:28.000 Who is it?

01:29:28.000 Is it?

01:29:29.000 I'm gonna get the name wrong.

01:29:30.000 Is it Esther?

01:29:31.000 It's one of them, right?

01:29:32.000 she ends up married to the king or whatever and he's not Jewish and she's

01:29:37.000 not his biggest fan but like he she ends up bringing him around and then he does

01:29:41.000 right by the by the Israelites and it all works out we should we should make a

01:29:46.000 movie where it's like the main characters are the women who are married

01:29:50.000 to the superheroes and then like all the superhero stuff is just ancillary

01:29:54.000 background stuff like mob wives is that what it is I don't know, but it seems like that would be what that would be.

01:29:59.000 And I was gonna say, but it's just like the women doing things that support the infrastructure behind the superhero.

01:30:05.000 And so it's more of like an interpersonal drama.

01:30:07.000 Yeah, the show should be called superheroes, but it's about the women.

01:30:10.000 No, this is a great idea and it shouldn't be called that, but I like this idea.

01:30:15.000 This would be a really fun film.

01:30:17.000 This would be a really fun film to write and to watch and to costume.

01:30:20.000 I mean, these would be great costumes.

01:30:22.000 If it was like actually written as like a story women were interested in hearing as opposed to just like making the women big burly superheroes punching guys.

01:30:30.000 Right.

01:30:30.000 No, I mean this is not a movie that Hollywood would produce right now because we aren't supposed to have women who are like secondary or playing wives and mother figures, right?

01:30:39.000 Like that's not supposed to be.

01:30:40.000 But that's the story that most women are actually experiencing.

01:30:44.000 But it could start at like a kid's birthday party, you know, and like all the moms are coming over and there's like a pool party and all the kids have like weird Things they can do because their dads are superheroes and they're all just sitting there chatting You gotta have a villain like slams down from the sky and attacks the party.

01:31:00.000 That's if you want to get everyone to like it No, the the villain would be the wife.

01:31:04.000 I feel like it's always happening in the background The villain would be like yeah that would be the wife of the supervillain and she would come in and you would think she's the villain and then it would turn out that she's actually really nice and no no invites everyone to like the I don't know.

01:31:19.000 It turns out the villain is the supervillain's wife, and the superhero's wife and the villain's wife are fighting because they were at a department store and there was one cute dress on sale, and the villain's wife bought it first.

01:31:30.000 Okay, that's not... And now they just... You guys are out of the writer's room.

01:31:35.000 You're on the villain or playing cards.

01:31:36.000 It's like a dude trying to write for women.

01:31:38.000 It's like you're off the edge.

01:31:39.000 That's not what it would be.

01:31:41.000 No, but it would be like this, you know... But if you want to go really classic, it would obviously, there would be some sort of a fair situation.

01:31:47.000 An affair.

01:31:48.000 Yeah, so like the villain, the supervillain's wife is actually like having an affair with like the... Oh, that's actually interesting.

01:31:54.000 The Chad superhero.

01:31:56.000 Yeah, and also the Chad superhero's wife is actually like, she's the leader, you know, cause there's always a leader.

01:32:02.000 There's always a head of the girl pack.

01:32:04.000 So she's in charge and then it turns out and blah, blah, blah.

01:32:08.000 Yeah, actually it's much more interpersonal.

01:32:11.000 I get what you're saying.

01:32:12.000 It might be nice to have someone explode, but that's not... Yeah, and the top superhero's wife's best friend would start to know about the affair, and she doesn't know if she should tell or what's going on.

01:32:22.000 There's ethical conflict.

01:32:23.000 We're not complicated guys.

01:32:24.000 I don't know what to tell you.

01:32:25.000 But this would be a really good film, but the lighting should be really bright.

01:32:30.000 There should be really bright nature colors, almost a little overexposed.

01:32:34.000 And it's a weird suburb of some kind.

01:32:36.000 Yes.

01:32:37.000 Yes.

01:32:38.000 Yeah, I hope someone's writing all this down because this is this is gold.

01:32:41.000 We don't have to The thing is to like the the social consequences of the superhero dating a supervillain like having an affair with supervillains wife Yeah, and then his wife's friend finds out he's got to talk to her about it They get secluded in a room or just got to confront her what happens when the pop when the public hears that You know, he's intimate with you know, the family One time it happened one time It didn't happen one time.

01:33:07.000 And then you have like these great scenes like at a like at a rundown roadside motel, you know, and you have like the loud sound of cicadas and the weird guy who's like smoking cigars and it's sort of like the light is weird.

01:33:21.000 And then you cut to a scene of like their kids playing together.

01:33:23.000 But you gotta do a scene.

01:33:24.000 Someone commits suicide?

01:33:25.000 No, no suicide.

01:33:27.000 But like the villain's wife.

01:33:29.000 Okay, yeah, I'll just give you- You gotta do a scene where, like, the wife of the Chad superhero, like, goes to confront him, and she finds him at this old motel, and it's, like, thunderstorming, and then she, like, catches him in the room, and then she screams, and she storms out, and then he runs out after her, and they're both in the rain, and he's like, don't do this, and she's like, you did it to me, and they're arguing in this rain pouring down, and then he picks her up, and they kiss in the rain.

01:33:51.000 Right, and then we have a, you know, stand by my man moment.

01:33:56.000 And the only way that she can stand by the man is they gotta get rid of the villain wife and now they're like supervillains.

01:34:01.000 But that's ultimately feeding the conflict between the supervillain and the hero.

01:34:05.000 Yeah, and then they leave town.

01:34:06.000 And then you have a sequel because now the villain and the villain's wife had to start over somewhere else.

01:34:11.000 No, no, no, no, turns out they're villains!

01:34:13.000 They're into it!

01:34:13.000 They're swingers!

01:34:15.000 Yeah, but they still have to leave.

01:34:16.000 They can't go to the pool parties anymore.

01:34:17.000 Oh, yeah.

01:34:18.000 And then you have the kids being like, why can't we play with Evil Junior?

01:34:22.000 I don't understand.

01:34:25.000 Evil Junior.

01:34:26.000 And you have this moment where you say, what do I say?

01:34:28.000 She only wears Versace.

01:34:30.000 Yes, yes.

01:34:30.000 She's a wrap dress girl.

01:34:32.000 All right, let's go to Super Chats.

01:34:52.000 Let's read some Super Chats.

01:34:54.000 All right.

01:34:55.000 Let's see.

01:34:56.000 Matthew Reckamp says, with Convention of States looming, some people have been talking about a deficit tax on Congress as an alternative to a balanced budget amendment so that Congress would have an incentive to not overspend.

01:35:07.000 What are your thoughts?

01:35:08.000 I don't know what you mean by a deficit tax.

01:35:10.000 You mean like tax their wages or something?

01:35:12.000 Do you guys know what that is?

01:35:13.000 Sounds like that's what it would be.

01:35:15.000 Because unless you're going to go at their personal bank accounts, you would just be taking it from the taxpayer.

01:35:19.000 Then it's just a bunch of rich people being like, I don't care about my salary.

01:35:22.000 Take whatever you want.

01:35:23.000 Oh, negative, whatever.

01:35:25.000 Yep.

01:35:27.000 Bear says, found a wiki that records all the politicians' ties, socialist, communist groups, AOC in photo with North Korean activists.

01:35:34.000 Check out keywiki.org?

01:35:36.000 Is that what it is?

01:35:37.000 I don't know.

01:35:38.000 I feel like I'm going to get a virus if I type that in.

01:35:40.000 Yeah, right.

01:35:40.000 But maybe it's really useful.

01:35:41.000 I don't know.

01:35:42.000 What was it?

01:35:43.000 Keywiki.org.

01:35:45.000 Crackerjack says, Tim, I'm now a proud member of timcast.com.

01:35:49.000 Have you guys ever tried Nordic bread?

01:35:51.000 It could be a good alternative to bread.

01:35:53.000 Love you all.

01:35:54.000 I haven't, but I've had skier before.

01:35:55.000 Have you guys ever had that?

01:35:56.000 No.

01:35:57.000 When I went to Iceland.

01:35:58.000 It's like their version of yogurt, I guess.

01:36:00.000 It's different.

01:36:01.000 Yeah, it's really good.

01:36:02.000 There are some grocery stores that sell it in America.

01:36:04.000 All right.

01:36:09.000 Let's see, let's grab some more superchits.

01:36:12.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr.

01:36:13.000 says, I can't vote Democrat in PA primary.

01:36:15.000 WTF, other states?

01:36:17.000 Yeah, seriously, open primaries are messed up.

01:36:20.000 Monkey Ninja says, I'm from Kansas and usually extremely conservative, but voted no.

01:36:25.000 I can't argue for the right to defend my property against intruders and vote against women's right to do the same with their own bodies.

01:36:32.000 I don't know if that's the case, though.

01:36:34.000 I mean, the issue was the state Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution defends the right to abortion, and there would be an amendment saying the Constitution does not.

01:36:42.000 There would still be an issue of legislation in terms of abortion restriction.

01:36:46.000 West Virginia has a constitutional amendment that says there's no protection for abortion, but they do allow abortion in certain exceptions.

01:36:53.000 I mean, like, I think the fear behind a lot of what happened in Kansas was the push that it was, like, it's opening the door to a complete and total ban and, like, the panic that ensued.

01:37:01.000 I could understand if people said, you know, I oppose abortion for myself.

01:37:06.000 I wouldn't do it for myself, but I don't feel like I can keep other people from it.

01:37:09.000 And that's why you voted no.

01:37:11.000 But there's a I mean, a lot of people in Europe think we're absolutely insane for having areas in the country where you can have abortions through, you know, the end of the pregnancy, which is crazy.

01:37:22.000 I mean, and I think in Sweden, it's like 18 weeks.

01:37:26.000 And they're like, oh, we're so civilized.

01:37:27.000 In the U.S.

01:37:28.000 you can't have abortions.

01:37:29.000 And it's like, actually, here we can kind of do whatever.

01:37:32.000 It just depends on where you are.

01:37:35.000 It's very interesting.

01:37:37.000 It is one of the side effects of federalism, really.

01:37:40.000 True Halo says AZ is not an open primary state unless you are registered as independent where you can choose which party in the primary.

01:37:47.000 Oh, that's interesting.

01:37:48.000 So maybe they registered as independents.

01:37:49.000 So it would have been 100,000 independents who were?

01:37:53.000 I really doubt that's the case.

01:37:54.000 I feel like that's... I really doubt it.

01:37:56.000 Traditionally it depends.

01:37:57.000 A lot of people supported Obama.

01:37:58.000 But as an Arizonan, it's hard to vote for Carrie Lake with her past supporting Obama

01:38:01.000 or the child drag show Rumors.

01:38:03.000 She's also very flimsy on public education, which is a big issue in Arizona.

01:38:06.000 I love the show.

01:38:07.000 I've heard a lot of people talking about the past voting for Obama stuff.

01:38:10.000 A lot of people voted for Obama.

01:38:11.000 I voted for Obama.

01:38:12.000 Yeah, I did too in 2008.

01:38:13.000 Yeah.

01:38:14.000 And then 2012, I was like, well, that was dumb.

01:38:16.000 And then I was just pissed off.

01:38:17.000 And then when 2016 came around, I was like, get out of here.

01:38:19.000 I don't care who you are.

01:38:20.000 See if she supported the post-drone-bomb-psycho-Obama.

01:38:23.000 Psycho-Bama.

01:38:24.000 Or if it was 2008, hope and change Obama.

01:38:26.000 No, no, look.

01:38:27.000 He had a lot of us.

01:38:28.000 9 million people.

01:38:29.000 He got co-opted.

01:38:30.000 9 million people who voted for Obama in 2012 voted for Trump in 2016.

01:38:33.000 Trump was a moderate and a lot of people were waking up to reality.

01:38:36.000 I don't think it's fair to see somebody who is like, Hey, you know what?

01:38:39.000 I realized y'all were right about this.

01:38:41.000 And then be like, don't care.

01:38:42.000 You are forever tainted by being wrong before.

01:38:44.000 Like, nah, that's supposed to be the opposite of cancel culture.

01:38:47.000 So if somebody, you know, voted for Obama, I did.

01:38:50.000 And then I was like, well, that was dumb.

01:38:51.000 Like you'd be like, thank you.

01:38:53.000 Thank you for, for figuring it out and being correct.

01:38:55.000 You know what I mean?

01:38:58.000 All right.

01:39:00.000 Crumulus says, I sometimes despair being born in this time.

01:39:04.000 My generation will inherit a broken system.

01:39:06.000 We will fight World War III while our history and culture is erased.

01:39:09.000 The time is now to be a strong man.

01:39:11.000 Do not go gentle into that good night.

01:39:13.000 Um, I disagree.

01:39:15.000 You are, you know, may you live in interesting times.

01:39:18.000 I think no matter when you're born, something's happening.

01:39:21.000 Imagine being a boomer and being drafted into Vietnam.

01:39:25.000 You know, I guess Gen Xers are like a lost generation, right?

01:39:28.000 Everyone forgets they exist.

01:39:29.000 We're a very small generation, and the reason for that, there's a couple of reasons.

01:39:33.000 One is the Vietnam War, so a lot of our would-be parents ended up being killed, would-be fathers rather.

01:39:41.000 Another reason is abortion was legalized in 73, right in the middle.

01:39:44.000 That's right.

01:39:45.000 And then also contraception, the pill, came in about the same time.

01:39:51.000 So there are a lot less Gen Xers.

01:39:54.000 Now on the plus side, we all got into college.

01:39:58.000 It was not hard.

01:39:59.000 That's a plus?

01:39:59.000 Yeah.

01:39:59.000 I don't know if that's a plus.

01:40:01.000 Did you like that?

01:40:02.000 Was that good for you?

01:40:02.000 Yeah, because I would have had a real doozy of a time getting into college otherwise.

01:40:07.000 I believe I... Yeah, yeah.

01:40:10.000 I was accepted to pretty much one school that I applied to.

01:40:13.000 Oh wow.

01:40:14.000 And so I went to it.

01:40:15.000 Nice!

01:40:16.000 Yeah.

01:40:16.000 Limiting the decisions.

01:40:17.000 My mom made me go.

01:40:19.000 I didn't want to go to college at all.

01:40:20.000 But anyway.

01:40:22.000 Here's an interesting one.

01:40:23.000 Mark Eckstein says, I'm an Arizona voter.

01:40:25.000 I had to declare party and was only able to vote in that party's primary.

01:40:28.000 I will admit I voted for Robson because I preferred her policies.

01:40:32.000 But when it comes for the general, I'm going to vote for the GOP.

01:40:37.000 Interesting.

01:40:39.000 I think, you know, I think Carrie Lake's great.

01:40:43.000 I don't know.

01:40:44.000 I'm not an Arizonan, so I don't know exactly what Arizonans need or want.

01:40:47.000 That's why I'm kind of like, well, I don't want to say too much.

01:40:49.000 I don't want, you know, to tell people in Arizona how to live their lives.

01:40:52.000 She's always been a really gracious guest when she's been here.

01:40:54.000 Yeah, personally, I like her a lot, but it's just kind of almost irrelevant to politics.

01:40:59.000 So I don't talk about it much.

01:41:01.000 I wanna, I wanna come in and bring, uh, you know, fight, fight in West Virginia for, uh, you know, liberty, individualism.

01:41:10.000 I'm, I don't like that a lot of these schools, what's happening.

01:41:12.000 So I'll put it this way.

01:41:13.000 I really don't like the idea of being this, like, city slicker moving into West Virginia and then being like, nah, I'm gonna start voting on these policies and funding them.

01:41:20.000 That sounds terrible.

01:41:21.000 But then what I keep hearing from people is they need help because Michigan, I'm sorry, not Michigan, Virginians and Marylanders are coming in and bringing critical race theory into West Virginia because they're fleeing the states they destroyed with their garbage policies, going into West Virginia and then voting for those same policies.

01:41:38.000 And so they're like, we need, we need help, you know?

01:41:41.000 And I'm like, well, you know, we'll see what we can do.

01:41:44.000 We've got some plans.

01:41:46.000 Buy billboards all over the state saying Shelley Moore sold you out.

01:41:50.000 With that gun control garbage.

01:41:53.000 Alright.

01:41:55.000 What do we got here?

01:41:56.000 Lethal5670 says, I'm still trying to find the full bill to read, but Measure 114 in Oregon sounds like it will make us have stricter gun laws than California.

01:42:04.000 If it does pass, sounds like I will be homeless in West Virginia.

01:42:08.000 Constitutional care in West Virginia.

01:42:10.000 And a lot of people are homeless in West Virginia and live in trailers.

01:42:14.000 It's crazy when you go out to the middle of West Virginia.

01:42:17.000 It's the coolest thing ever.

01:42:18.000 I really, really love the middle of nowhere.

01:42:20.000 It's kind of like where I grew up.

01:42:22.000 Northeast Ohio.

01:42:22.000 As soon as you start to go like an hour west, it's just farm town, corn, trailers.

01:42:26.000 I mean, and there's a relationship between- No, no, no, you don't understand.

01:42:28.000 I'm talking about in the middle of nowhere, there's no corn.

01:42:31.000 It's just like rocks and trees.

01:42:33.000 And then you're driving down these single lane dirt roads and there are houses.

01:42:37.000 and it's just like well water limited power and electricity generators like some of them don't even have on it on the grid they have like just big diesel generators or something it's crazy to see and there's a lot of people who live in little trailers it's really cool when we drove through the mountains uh in central west virginia and then you just come across an rv at the top of the mountain and i'm like how did they get that thing there dude we were at the gas station traveling across the country this weekend and like I just get this.

01:43:03.000 I see all these people pulling up all peacefully, getting their gas.

01:43:06.000 I'm like, what if we had no gas?

01:43:07.000 This whole society runs on gas, man.

01:43:09.000 The whole society would be a problem, yeah.

01:43:11.000 In fact, it's way too vulnerable.

01:43:14.000 All right.

01:43:15.000 Honk Goes the Dynamite says Rush Limbaugh encouraged voting in other primaries in 2008.

01:43:19.000 It was called Operation Chaos.

01:43:21.000 Yeah.

01:43:22.000 I'm not the biggest fan.

01:43:26.000 I think it's breaking the system up, but, you know.

01:43:28.000 Well, it is chaotic, apparently.

01:43:29.000 I'm not the arbiter of morality here, you know.

01:43:32.000 It's funny though.

01:43:33.000 Intelligible Noise says, here's my solution to strategic crossover voting.

01:43:36.000 Roll over all primary votes to the election day totals of the winner of said primary.

01:43:41.000 This would nullify tampering and make Dems vote for the GOP.

01:43:44.000 Oh.

01:43:45.000 By making Dems vote for the GOP.

01:43:46.000 Of course, if you vote for someone in the primary and they win, then your votes are automatically set for the general.

01:43:50.000 That makes a lot of sense.

01:43:52.000 That's a good idea.

01:43:53.000 Yeah.

01:43:55.000 Yeah, so if you vote for Carrie Lake in the primary, you don't gotta do anything you already voted for.

01:43:59.000 And then everyone else who didn't vote for her gets to decide.

01:44:02.000 And it would make it way easier to count the votes for the general, because a lot of them are already done.

01:44:07.000 All right, Raymond G. Stanley Jr.

01:44:10.000 says, this is Way We Dig IRL, comedy over World War III.

01:44:15.000 We're having a laugh about something.

01:44:17.000 What are we laughing about?

01:44:18.000 We're having a laugh about AOC and Trump.

01:44:21.000 Our cats are girls.

01:44:25.000 All right, Clint Torres says, Tim, I think I remember you mentioned something about having theological discussions last week.

01:44:31.000 Might I recommend a discussion with Father Mike Schmitz?

01:44:34.000 I love his Bible in a here podcast.

01:44:37.000 Is Bible in a year or Bible in a here?

01:44:39.000 He's the most trustworthy theologian I've ever experienced.

01:44:41.000 I think someone recommended we do like a special or something with him.

01:44:44.000 I got a theological question for you, Libby.

01:44:47.000 Jesus or Moses?

01:44:49.000 What?

01:44:50.000 If you had to pick one.

01:44:51.000 Wow, you can't pick one.

01:44:53.000 So you're good at answering questions in the way you want to answer them.

01:44:55.000 Yeah, that's correct.

01:44:56.000 But what does that mean, Jesus or Moses?

01:44:57.000 What would you pick, Jesus or Moses?

01:44:58.000 I don't know what the question means.

01:44:59.000 Who do you like better?

01:45:00.000 I don't know.

01:45:01.000 You don't have a preference?

01:45:02.000 Who do you like better?

01:45:03.000 Moses.

01:45:04.000 I did not pick Daddy Moses, dude.

01:45:06.000 Why?

01:45:06.000 Because he was like the first.

01:45:07.000 He like, God spoke.

01:45:09.000 He was all tripping on the Acacia book and he like, He was a slave and then he found out here he was like raised by royalty and then realized he was like actually a Jew and when he's like had this ethical con- And he went out to find his brother.

01:45:23.000 Freed the slaves.

01:45:23.000 Yeah, dude.

01:45:24.000 Moses.

01:45:25.000 I watched that movie with Christian Bale.

01:45:27.000 I haven't seen it.

01:45:28.000 But he screwed up, you know, he totally he smashed the tablets.

01:45:33.000 Did he kill his brother, Aaron?

01:45:35.000 He smashed the coming down off Mount Sinai when he found out that the Israelites were worshipping false gods.

01:45:41.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:45:42.000 Because the Israelites, they always go around and screw up every time.

01:45:46.000 So I was during the pandemic, my son and I were reading the Old Testament.

01:45:50.000 And, you know, over and over again, it would be like, and the Israelites turned away from God.

01:45:55.000 And my son was finally like, that never works out well for the Israelites.

01:45:59.000 And I was like, no, it doesn't.

01:46:00.000 Let's just keep that in mind.

01:46:02.000 Doesn't work out well.

01:46:05.000 Let's read some more.

01:46:05.000 We got Donald Duvall.

01:46:07.000 He says 1984 Mondale versus Reagan.

01:46:09.000 Reagan wins 524 versus 10 electoral votes, winning 58.8% of the popular vote.

01:46:15.000 If it was 2020, Walter Mondale narrowly wins by receiving more votes than any other president in history.

01:46:21.000 I think the, um, I think people need to understand about a 50 or 49 state landslide is that you don't need 80% of the vote to do it.

01:46:29.000 You can, you can win every state with 51%.

01:46:30.000 It's just, you just need to win in those states.

01:46:34.000 People don't get it.

01:46:36.000 So when we saw these big, these landslides, Nixon and Reagan, it wasn't, it was like, you know, 58%, which is big relative to what we've seen.

01:46:43.000 All right, let's see.

01:46:47.000 What is this?

01:46:51.000 Really Now says, one, more support for Timcast.

01:46:54.000 Two, officially asking Libby out for a drink.

01:46:57.000 Aw, that's really cute.

01:46:59.000 Yes.

01:46:59.000 I just, I want to say now that I'm like, I get to say something.

01:47:02.000 Uh, there is no Jesus without Moses.

01:47:04.000 What?

01:47:05.000 That's probably true.

01:47:06.000 So that's, I mean.

01:47:07.000 Moses, dude.

01:47:09.000 You need them all.

01:47:10.000 You need them all.

01:47:11.000 You need people willing to break slaves free and flee across the world with them.

01:47:14.000 Well.

01:47:15.000 Give them a place to live.

01:47:17.000 Here we go.

01:47:17.000 Oh, Hell No says.

01:47:18.000 And then Jesus broke us from the chain of our sins.

01:47:21.000 The entire Alex Jones hearing is being recorded by cameras off to the side for a future Made for TV documentary.

01:47:27.000 The judge and prosecuting attorneys are even acting more dramatic just for that.

01:47:30.000 That explains it.

01:47:31.000 This is what I mean.

01:47:31.000 Like, I think they are trying to irritate him into having some big Alex Jones type ranty outburst that they can then use for something.

01:47:38.000 This is why he shouldn't have given them this.

01:47:41.000 Does he think that they're gonna be like, oh, now we've decided that Alex Jones is right?

01:47:44.000 He should've just been like, nah, we're done.

01:47:47.000 Like, no movie for you, no made-for-TV anything.

01:47:50.000 Why give them that?

01:47:51.000 I don't understand.

01:47:51.000 I don't know.

01:47:53.000 What do you mean, give him that?

01:47:54.000 Like, he acquiesced to doing this?

01:47:56.000 Could he have just settled out?

01:47:58.000 I mean, my understanding is that he offered some extremely low number, like $10,000 or something.

01:48:03.000 But I don't trust the corporate press reporting on this, to be completely honest, so...

01:48:08.000 I don't know, man.

01:48:09.000 I can tell you this.

01:48:12.000 What I do know is that people who are, you know, associated with InfoWars told me things like people who work there said, Alex, you got to stop saying this stuff before the trial happened.

01:48:23.000 Then the trial happened and they show emails of exactly what was said.

01:48:26.000 So people who left InfoWars have been saying this.

01:48:30.000 It is what it is, man.

01:48:32.000 Dorian Holm says, hey Tim, have you guys seen the FBI's domestic terrorism symbol sheet that got leaked?

01:48:36.000 Recommend looking into it.

01:48:38.000 We did.

01:48:39.000 The Gadsden flag.

01:48:40.000 Yeah, I think the black and gold flag.

01:48:42.000 Revolutionary war symbols?

01:48:44.000 Yep.

01:48:44.000 From the American Revolution?

01:48:47.000 That freed us from tyranny?

01:48:48.000 I mean, come on, that's insane.

01:48:52.000 Waffle Sensei the Empirical says, I've always held that Alex is on the autism spectrum, and don't mean it disparagingly.

01:48:57.000 I mean, he has a superhuman memory, and that he can remember a news article from 15 years ago, but struggles translating it to people.

01:49:04.000 I gotta be honest, man.

01:49:05.000 I'm not trying to be mean here, but I think there's a drinking problem there.

01:49:09.000 I think he said that.

01:49:09.000 He said that explicitly, that his biggest problem was when he would drink and then do a show, because he would just say the dumbest stuff.

01:49:15.000 He would be, he'd confuse stuff.

01:49:17.000 He'd forget stuff.

01:49:19.000 And so, yup.

01:49:21.000 Yup.

01:49:24.000 Dan says, sending my first super chat for Libby.

01:49:26.000 I'm trying to meet someone just like her someday, hopefully soon, before the world ends.

01:49:30.000 And then a bunch of heart emojis.

01:49:32.000 Please send all of your resumes, bank statements, and headshots to Tim.

01:49:35.000 He'll be screening all of Libby's suitors.

01:49:38.000 Oh, not me.

01:49:38.000 No, we have staff for that, though.

01:49:41.000 All right.

01:49:41.000 It'll be in your email.

01:49:43.000 Just be marked red.

01:49:45.000 Logan Leroy says, Tim, I'm a med student at the University of KS.

01:49:49.000 I voted yes on the initiative that failed yesterday.

01:49:52.000 Some of my pro-abortion classmates brought in champagne to celebrate today.

01:49:55.000 Even if you support pro-choice, you shouldn't be celebrating abortion to that extent.

01:49:59.000 That's how I feel.

01:50:00.000 But the modern left is pro-abortion.

01:50:02.000 Just outright pro-abortion.

01:50:04.000 On the other hand, drink some champagne.

01:50:08.000 Yeah, I guess.

01:50:09.000 I mean, once there's champagne.

01:50:10.000 It's already opened.

01:50:12.000 Yeah, get it before it goes flat.

01:50:12.000 The bubbles are gonna die.

01:50:13.000 Yeah, you just gotta drink it.

01:50:15.000 Greedo says, the missile had blades on it, no explosives.

01:50:18.000 Yeah, wasn't it called like a ninja missile or something?

01:50:20.000 What?

01:50:20.000 What missile?

01:50:21.000 A shredder.

01:50:22.000 The missile they fired to kill Al-Zawahiri.

01:50:24.000 It, like, they fire it and then it spins and fires blades and they just shred you to pieces.

01:50:30.000 That sounds like a weird Star Wars thing.

01:50:33.000 Oh, doesn't Star Wars use energy weapons like lightsabers?

01:50:36.000 They do both.

01:50:36.000 Yeah, but then they do other stuff too.

01:50:38.000 Yeah, they have vibroblades, which are... Vibroblades?

01:50:41.000 Yeah, they just vibrate so fast that they cut through bone like butter, but they're not energy weapons.

01:50:46.000 Huh.

01:50:47.000 Also, I heard in the Extended Lore they had, um, there were, uh, I think they're stormtroopers.

01:50:53.000 They fired slugs because the lightsabers couldn't deflect them.

01:50:57.000 Oh, okay.

01:50:57.000 Yeah, ballistics are going to do well in space.

01:50:59.000 Energy weapons are great, but ballistics will go right through a hull of a ship if they don't have armor.

01:51:04.000 Hmm, yeah.

01:51:05.000 I mean... They'll have shields that block the lasers, but then the bullets will go through the shields and hit the wall, so you're gonna need hull armor and shields.

01:51:14.000 What sci-fi series did that?

01:51:15.000 I was watching it and they used bullets in spaceships.

01:51:19.000 I can't remember which one, though.

01:51:20.000 Recently.

01:51:21.000 It was a recent one, or you watched it recently, but it was old.

01:51:24.000 Uh, maybe it was old.

01:51:25.000 Maybe, or maybe it was new.

01:51:26.000 It sounds like an old concept.

01:51:27.000 No, no, it's a new, almost all space stuff was always like pew pew lasers and photon torpedoes.

01:51:33.000 This was like, they were shooting guns and I was like, they have no shields, it's just ripping through the hull.

01:51:37.000 You know?

01:51:38.000 Crazy stuff.

01:51:39.000 Interesting.

01:51:39.000 Yeah.

01:51:41.000 Guns in space.

01:51:43.000 All right.

01:51:45.000 Jared Gutierrez says Pelosi went to celebrate giving access to over $2 billion in education to PRC.

01:51:51.000 Confucius Schools?

01:51:52.000 Why shoot down a person who just gave you money?

01:51:55.000 People are saying Battlestar?

01:51:56.000 Was it The Expanse?

01:51:58.000 Halo?

01:51:59.000 Firefly?

01:52:01.000 Oh, didn't they have Guns and Firefly?

01:52:03.000 It's kind of old west, that movie.

01:52:05.000 Firefly?

01:52:06.000 Yeah.

01:52:06.000 Maybe it was The Expanse.

01:52:08.000 Serenity was the movie.

01:52:09.000 Firefly was the show.

01:52:10.000 Firefly was the show.

01:52:11.000 What a great theme.

01:52:12.000 That was a great show.

01:52:13.000 It was really a lot of fun to watch.

01:52:15.000 They made RimWorld, the video game, is basically based on Firefly.

01:52:18.000 Really?

01:52:18.000 Yeah, it's a great game.

01:52:19.000 Interesting.

01:52:20.000 And then Serenity was the name of the ship, right?

01:52:21.000 I heard it didn't do well, the movie.

01:52:23.000 Yeah, who cares?

01:52:24.000 I watched it anyway.

01:52:24.000 Relative.

01:52:25.000 But yeah, Serenity was the ship.

01:52:26.000 Yeah.

01:52:27.000 That was great.

01:52:28.000 Malcolm McDowell, is that it?

01:52:29.000 I would have watched a whole bunch more of that.

01:52:31.000 I think a lot of people would.

01:52:32.000 Stacy Strickland says, previous conversation that mentioned restaurants in New Jersey.

01:52:37.000 Is it still hard to order sweet tea in northern states?

01:52:40.000 Random, but used to get looked at sideways and wondering it's normalizing up there.

01:52:46.000 I don't know.

01:52:47.000 I don't know anybody orders.

01:52:48.000 Luke orders half sweet tea.

01:52:50.000 I didn't know when you would get iced tea when I grew up in the northeast and I grew up in New England if you would have to ask for sugar to add it.

01:52:57.000 It's not like when they make the simple syrup and add it and it's always like that but I think the spread of some chain restaurants like I think Chick-fil-A always has a sweetened iced tea and I think that is sort of making it seem more normal and I think Some of the big brand name drinks also produce sweet iced tea.

01:53:14.000 I always drink unsweetened iced tea, and I'll ask at restaurants, do you have iced tea?

01:53:18.000 And they'll say, well, it's unsweetened, sort of apologetically.

01:53:20.000 And I'm like, good.

01:53:21.000 Yeah, I don't want sugar.

01:53:22.000 Why would you put sugar in your iced tea?

01:53:24.000 I didn't even, I didn't have iced tea for years because my family like makes tea every morning.

01:53:29.000 I read a story about a guy who drank nothing but iced tea and then he died.

01:53:31.000 What?

01:53:32.000 From what?

01:53:32.000 Really?

01:53:33.000 He was like 88 heart attack?

01:53:34.000 Yeah.

01:53:34.000 No, I'm kidding.

01:53:35.000 COVID.

01:53:36.000 No, there was an actual story about a guy who was, he drank nothing but unsweet tea and he died in like his 40s.

01:53:41.000 And I think it was related.

01:53:43.000 That's what the story was about.

01:53:43.000 Like he didn't drink water?

01:53:44.000 He didn't drink water.

01:53:45.000 Well, that's, I mean, that's a problem right away.

01:53:48.000 He was getting some kind of buildup or something.

01:53:50.000 I did have iced tea over the weekend.

01:53:51.000 It was gorgeous.

01:53:52.000 It was good.

01:53:52.000 Alright, let's read some more.

01:53:53.000 We got Thomas Williams says, I agree going after Alex Jones for false information about Sandy Hook.

01:53:58.000 I also want the same standards for all major networks, MSNBC, CNN, so on.

01:54:02.000 Your false opinions have consequences.

01:54:04.000 Your false opinions are protected.

01:54:08.000 In this instance, it was that Alex Jones said definitive things.

01:54:13.000 Now, I think what they're arguing is, and again, I don't know every detail of the case, he was saying that he was like reading things from his audience and stuff like that, and then asking questions.

01:54:24.000 And I think they determined, look, the standard for private citizens is way, way lower than for public figures.

01:54:31.000 Maybe he could have argued involuntary public figures like they did with the Covington Catholic kids and apparently getting away with it because those cases are getting dismissed, but you know.

01:54:38.000 I'm hearing that it was Battlestar and the recent Battlestar.

01:54:42.000 Recent Battlestar?

01:54:43.000 The recent one.

01:54:44.000 With the blonde girl that was Starbuck?

01:54:46.000 Yeah, that had Kara.

01:54:47.000 Well, that's not real.

01:54:48.000 That was 20 years ago or something.

01:54:50.000 Yeah.

01:54:50.000 But not the one from the 70s.

01:54:51.000 It's the remake, though.

01:54:52.000 But that they had the bullets.

01:54:54.000 Yeah.

01:54:54.000 There was something else I was watching recently, though.

01:54:55.000 Had bullets in space.

01:54:57.000 I don't know.

01:54:58.000 Maybe it was like a low-budget movie.

01:54:59.000 I can't remember.

01:55:00.000 I watch random stuff on Amazon.

01:55:03.000 Stefan Buksev says, regarding Alex Jones, talk to Barnes.

01:55:06.000 He explains really well how he's getting railroaded.

01:55:09.000 Technically, the judge has already broken Texas law regarding how he has tried.

01:55:13.000 Too long of an explanation for a super chat.

01:55:15.000 Interesting.

01:55:16.000 So, appeal on the horizon?

01:55:17.000 He's in Texas?

01:55:19.000 This case is in Texas, yeah.

01:55:20.000 Oh, wow.

01:55:20.000 I thought people were sitting in Connecticut or something.

01:55:23.000 I think the previous case was, I remember, He didn't show up to it in person, which is okay, and there's some back and forth, but there were two separate legal motions, and this one is in Texas.

01:55:34.000 People are saying it's the Expanse.

01:55:35.000 I don't know, they could be wrong, but a lot of people just... Yeah, I mean, maybe both.

01:55:41.000 Common sci-fi theme.

01:55:44.000 Trox says USA will not let Taiwan fall.

01:55:47.000 Taiwan invasion equals World War 4.

01:55:49.000 We have already had a cold World War 3.

01:55:52.000 We have been putting this war off, denying Taiwan independence.

01:55:55.000 I don't agree with that.

01:55:57.000 I think that it's just one of these colonization tactics and it's been planned for a long time that China, it's part of, I mean it's right next to China.

01:56:05.000 China's taking Taiwan.

01:56:06.000 Yeah, they definitely are and there's nothing we can do about it.

01:56:09.000 Yeah, they're moving industry to the states.

01:56:12.000 The last few months they have been, they're just preparing for the transition.

01:56:15.000 We just don't have the leadership to do anything.

01:56:18.000 Donald Trump said he would nuke Beijing if they tried.

01:56:21.000 Yeah, and he was the crazy person with the knife.

01:56:23.000 And he was like, maybe they believe me 5%, but it's enough.

01:56:27.000 Yeah, that was, I don't know, man, it's kind of scary.

01:56:29.000 It was enough.

01:56:30.000 Even the left, they were like, Donald Trump could start a nuclear war.

01:56:32.000 And I'm like, yeah he wants you to think that he might he just might it's like but that like doubt was really to his strength right like even if it's only five percent well it's like you were saying if there's a crazy guy like if you're if you're if you're building on your block is on the corner and there's a crazy looking guy twirling a gun around and he's like shaking it and pointing it around you'd be like from that guy yeah you're the one house not getting robbed because like a crazy guy you can't argue with

01:56:58.000 You know, if they saw somebody, they'd be like, I bet I can take him.

01:57:00.000 But a crazy guy who was just like shaking his gun, you're gonna be like, I'm not going anywhere near that guy.

01:57:04.000 That's right.

01:57:05.000 I actually saw a guy in my neighborhood the other day and he, uh, he had what looked to be like a little machine gun type of thing.

01:57:12.000 And he was like pointing it around and stuff.

01:57:14.000 And it took a while before I saw that it had like a orange tip on it.

01:57:18.000 And I was, I was like, I, this is totally freaked out.

01:57:22.000 I've heard kids get shot, or one guy in particular, I think it was in Ohio, got shot for that.

01:57:25.000 A cop saw him and thought he had a real gun, so he killed him.

01:57:28.000 Yeah, that's happened.

01:57:30.000 Oh, that's nuts.

01:57:31.000 My kid's not allowed to take his Nerf guns to the park.

01:57:33.000 Geez, not in this era.

01:57:34.000 No way.

01:57:36.000 Alright.

01:57:37.000 DieselAddictRyan says, Chicken Ian, the hero we didn't know we needed until we saw him.

01:57:42.000 Long live Chicken Ian.

01:57:43.000 Yes.

01:57:44.000 People were I saw I saw like libertarian people sharing the cartoon.

01:57:49.000 So for those unfamiliar at Chicken City YouTube channel, there's a cartoon we asked an AI.

01:57:53.000 I typed in like the parameters like Ian Federal Reserve chickens, and they wrote this very like it wrote this story.

01:58:00.000 It was like one day Ian went to school and he was bullied by you know, a rooster.

01:58:04.000 And so then we turned it into a cartoon, and then Ian goes on this rant about the Federal Reserve, and then the chickens take over the Federal Reserve.

01:58:12.000 I think that the A.I.

01:58:13.000 wrote the story, and then Kent wrote the dialogue.

01:58:16.000 Was that right?

01:58:17.000 The A.I.

01:58:17.000 wrote the premise.

01:58:18.000 And then Kent, shout out to that dialogue.

01:58:20.000 Ian the chicken goes to school and was bullied, and then all the dialogue was written by Kent.

01:58:27.000 Your graphene book bag?

01:58:28.000 Yeah.

01:58:29.000 That's great.

01:58:29.000 I wanted to make it into a show, because that was really hilarious.

01:58:32.000 Yeah, cool.

01:58:32.000 I want to rename the character from Chicken Ian to something like Wilbert or something.

01:58:36.000 Rooster Ian?

01:58:37.000 Rooster Ian, right?

01:58:38.000 Yeah.

01:58:39.000 Big news, though.

01:58:39.000 We're filming our music video.

01:58:40.000 We filmed half of it for the song that we're putting out in a couple of weeks.

01:58:44.000 It's really, really good.

01:58:44.000 I'm really excited.

01:58:45.000 Pete Parata is going to be here.

01:58:47.000 He's an amazing drummer.

01:58:48.000 Super excited to have him.

01:58:50.000 And we're getting the big crew, we're getting the fog machine, and we're filming a music video.

01:58:54.000 On Saturday.

01:58:55.000 In a haunted house.

01:58:56.000 It is going to get hot.

01:58:57.000 There's no air conditioning.

01:58:58.000 Perfect.

01:58:59.000 Yeah, it's like an old 1800s farmhouse.

01:59:02.000 Wow.

01:59:03.000 And we filmed the first part of it in disrepair, and now it's been partially renovated for this second half of the video.

01:59:08.000 Let's get a huge fan.

01:59:09.000 We'll set up a huge fan that's blowing on us while we're playing.

01:59:11.000 We're going to get a couple portable air conditioner units so that we can film this because it's going to be an all-day thing.

01:59:15.000 We've got to move stuff around and play the song like 10 times, but I'm really excited for this.

01:59:20.000 And then the ad run we have in Times Square, it's going up probably August 21st, images from the video.

01:59:27.000 It's going to be really amazing.

01:59:28.000 Super excited for this.

01:59:30.000 And, uh, good music.

01:59:31.000 Really great music.

01:59:32.000 Carter Banks is an amazing, genius music producer.

01:59:35.000 So, we're really excited for this.

01:59:38.000 Really excited.

01:59:38.000 Let's grab some more Super Chits.

01:59:41.000 Type 54 Blackstar says, I mean at some point it would be nice to get an FFL.

01:59:44.000 Luke wanted to buy one.

01:59:45.000 I don't know if I can pull that off.

01:59:46.000 What's FFL?

01:59:47.000 Federal Firearms License.

01:59:48.000 I think that's what it stands for.

01:59:49.000 vote per party. Tim, are you still planning on getting your FFL? I mean, at some point

01:59:53.000 it would be nice to get an FFL. Luke wanted to buy one. I don't know if I can pull that

01:59:57.000 off. What's FFL? Federal Firearms License. I think that's what it stands for. You have

02:00:02.000 to buy it? You register a business and then you go through the hoops and then you can

02:00:06.000 have a license for selling guns.

02:00:08.000 Oh, interesting.

02:00:09.000 Yeah, it's a federal firearms license.

02:00:11.000 Yeah, depending on what tier it is, you can have suppressors and short barrel rifles and all these crazy NFA items.

02:00:19.000 And then there's even an application to apply for a nuclear weapon.

02:00:22.000 Or like robot, robot autonomous, autonomous robot weapons.

02:00:25.000 Yeah, I mean, probably.

02:00:27.000 I mean, it'd be really cool to have a bunch of those robot dogs.

02:00:28.000 You just want that dog, yeah.

02:00:29.000 I mean, I'm down.

02:00:30.000 I'm freaked out by them.

02:00:31.000 You've seen those Boston Dynamics videos.

02:00:33.000 We were driving by there, going to see family, and I was like, oh my goodness, look, it's Boston Dynamics.

02:00:39.000 Terrifying.

02:00:40.000 Did you see the video where it has the mounted machine, or semi-automatic?

02:00:43.000 Yeah, great.

02:00:44.000 Yeah, I think it's a fully automatic.

02:00:45.000 All right, let's grab one more here.

02:00:46.000 We got Mike DeRusha.

02:00:48.000 He says, $99.99 says Tim won't talk about how Brave New World is happening in real time.

02:00:53.000 Sexualized kids, world government, eternal youth, government-mandated drugs change my mind.

02:00:58.000 Well, we have talked about that quite a bit.

02:01:00.000 The only thing is, we like to point to Luke Rutkowski's shirt where it shows all of the dystopian novels as a Venn diagram, and in the middle it says, you are here.

02:01:08.000 Because it's not just Brave New World.

02:01:10.000 It's a little bit of everything.
