In this week's episode, we discuss the U.S. Women's National Team's elimination from the World Cup, Meghan Rapinoe's refusal to sing the national anthem at the post-game press conference, and more.
00:00:34.000And, you know, I feel like for most people, most people who are, who are into politics and culture, if this individual was, if Megan Rapinoe was like a nice, humble person... Wait, we have someone's audio blasting.
00:00:48.000If, uh, if Megan Rapinoe was a good person that people really liked, we'd all be like, nah, it's cool, you missed this shot, but we got your back, thank you for everything you do, but- but she's insufferable.
00:00:55.000She's got this viral video where she screams, I deserve this, over and over again.
00:00:59.000She's got this video, people are- are dragging her, where someone- this little- this little kid wants a- a signature on a- on a soccer ball, and she just, like, signs it and doesn't even look at him, just passes it off like he's not even there.
00:01:33.000I mean, we could leave with this, but the US is dispatching warships Because there's this big... China and Russia were seen off the coast of Alaska, and so the U.S.
00:01:52.000And I really do mean it, because I made a pretty... I was pissed off.
00:01:56.000Uh, Neo, the entertainer, came out, did an interview where he was like, how are parents gonna let their kids do these things, decide these things for their lives, they're 5, 6, 7 years old, 12 years old, making permanent alterations to their body.
00:02:07.000He was very critical of what the left calls gender affirming care and things like that.
00:02:12.000And uh, we were all pretty happy that he was speaking up and giving his opinion.
00:02:18.000And so I roasted him pretty heavily for this, saying this guy claims to be a father and that's all that matters, but he's selling out his children's future for fame and fortune with this apology.
00:02:27.000Well, I apologize, Inigo, because apparently that was your publicist.
00:02:31.000He came out and said, I don't care what the publicist said, I stand by what I said.
00:02:35.000And he doubled down and defended his position, saying kids shouldn't be doing this.
00:02:42.000To be fair, I had no idea that was coming from a publicist, and he apparently was not okay with it.
00:02:46.000But all that matters is he came out, he said something very, very legit, defended his stance, said, you know, F the publicist, and for that, I apologize.
00:02:56.000We're gonna talk about all of that and more.

00:04:04.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more is Clint Russell.
00:04:08.000I am the number one fan club curator for Neo.
00:05:22.000Donald Trump reignited his feud with Megan Rapinoe as the former president and other right-wing commentators delighted in the national team's historic early elimination from the World Cup.
00:07:48.000She's been there talking about inequalities and women's sports pay because obviously women's soccer makes so much money that we can justify these kinds of complaints.
00:07:59.000She mocks herself as the face of oppression.
00:08:01.000Henry Hazlitt's economics in one lesson would fix this problem.
00:08:06.000No, but the thing is, she's the kind of person, from the quotes that I've read of her talking about how you can't escape inequality, who would say, like, no, I don't believe you.
00:08:13.000The things that I feel are more important than any kind of logic.
00:08:39.000Did she make a simple mistake, or did she spike the game because she wants to leave early and not have to spend how much more time overseas flying around playing these games?
00:08:47.000I think it would have only been a couple more weeks, so...
00:08:52.000I think she's over the hill, and her focus is on activism as opposed to the sport, and I think it's as simple as that.
00:09:00.000Then she gets there on the big stage, she hasn't been committed to the sport like she had her entire career, and she chokes when it matters most.
00:09:06.000Yeah, I mean, it wasn't like everyone was saying that Goalie played a great game, which she did, but she also completely went over the net.
00:09:52.000I think when you see Megan Rapinoe trying to represent a sect of American politics instead of the United States, that's the corruption that we have to say no to and reject.
00:10:06.000The person who goes and represents the United States should say something like, I am deeply critical of this country's history, but I am here to represent those who both love and are critical.
00:10:17.000And for all of my, you know, all of the people in the United States who may disagree with me, just know that I'm going to win this for you too.
00:10:22.000That's what's supposed to be representing everybody.
00:10:26.000Her criticism, she has ample opportunity to let people know that she's critical without doing it when she's representing the United States when she's overseas.
00:10:37.000You can have whatever opinion you want, but when you're out actually being a representative of the United States, you should not trash the United States.
00:10:49.000And to be honest with you, this is a real, real, real low bar to pass.
00:10:57.000I'm saying don't trash America when you're out there getting paid significant money and being in a position to get all sorts of sponsorship deals and all kinds of stuff like that.
00:11:08.000Don't trash America when you're out there being a representative.
00:11:25.000No, I think that there's a reasonable argument to be made that, like, for instance...
00:11:31.000If Megan Rapinoe was out there and she was saying, we need to avoid World War III with Russia, and she was critical of our military in this moment or critical of our State Department, I would have been like, awesome.
00:11:44.000According to Forbes, Megan Rapinoe made $7 million in the past year.
00:12:21.000I'm so happy she's the one who spiked it.
00:12:24.000Bro, you give me anyone, any athlete, and if they keep their mouth shut and say literally nothing, and then it's a penalty kick or it's a free throw and they miss, And they come back and they say, I'm sorry, everybody.
00:13:09.000No, this is an insufferable, arrogant, entitled person who absolutely represents the worst scum of the United States, the entitled millennial who screams, I deserve this.
00:13:19.000You would never hear Tom Brady do that.
00:13:22.000Well, just contrast it with the greatest athlete of all time.
00:14:09.000We're only talking about Megan Rapinoe because she has made, especially women's soccer, but women's sports generally, this very divisive issue, both from the pay stuff, from the transgender stuff.
00:14:19.000Love the slubber she got from some of their wins and used it to be the one to kneel on the field.
00:14:23.000And women's sport needs every single eyeball it can get.
00:14:29.000But instead she's like, I am going to make this... And they're the most toxic and just objectionable, uncharismatic people that are just out there so full of themselves.
00:16:14.000It's about, well, we go out there and we put in the same effort, which there's no way to measure the amount of effort that they put in versus what the men put in.
00:16:24.000I mean, their argument for a while was like, we are more successful, we win more games, but that's not, doesn't make how much money this whole sport generates.
00:17:19.000It's like, it is honestly, it is communist.
00:17:22.000It's bizarre to me that they just make it so overtly.
00:17:25.000And all right, look, I saw Mehdi Hassan who was going ballistic about this.
00:17:28.000He's like, I'm so accustomed to seeing all the conservatives, the true blue, the hug the flag, the shoot your guns, the two way, the Bible thump, da da da da.
00:17:35.000And then he goes, he goes, they always root for the USA, but now all of a sudden they don't?
00:18:17.000But so does Mehdi Hasan, that's my point.
00:18:19.000It makes me sad for all of the other female players who are now, like, maybe it's a good thing that Megan Rapinoe was retiring and so there was a chance for the women on this team to potentially say, like, hey, we don't agree with her, we don't want to be a part of this political activism.
00:18:32.000She has been our team captain and dominated our culture and made it so we are forced to behave this way, which, of course, they have their choices, they're allowed to do whatever they want.
00:18:40.000But that's really the only way to drive people back to women's soccer.
00:18:44.000They have to start winning again, which obviously, I don't play professional sports, I don't know what kind of challenge that is, and they have to not be the political epicenter of liberalism right now.
00:18:52.000Well, there will be a huge sigh of relief by many of the players on that team, I would imagine, with her gone, because she just sucked the air out of every room.
00:19:27.000Yeah, well and it reminds- when this- with the Huffington Post article came out four years ago, you know, women's sports- women's soccer was performing well.
00:19:36.000And there were so many people who were saying, you know, they- we need to talk about them more.
00:19:39.000Girls need these- these folk heroes in sports so they know they can achieve all the stuff.
00:19:43.000Like, They never tell you why girls need that.
00:19:45.000Also, no one should look at Megan Rapinoe and say, I would like to live life the way you do because you treat people poorly.
00:19:50.000You're not a good, you don't have good character.
00:19:52.000I think regardless of whether she's a good athlete or not, she is not the model of behavior you'd want anyone to be like, look, younger, young child, do that.
00:20:01.000There's another angle of ridiculousness to this is that women's soccer really got a head start on the rest of the world by like 20 or 30 years.
00:20:10.000So they have this way overly inflated ego about their position in the sport because they're like, look, we're better than the men's team compared to the rest of the world.
00:20:55.000Neo apologizes for criticizing parents who support children deciding their gender identity.
00:21:01.000Saying, gender identity is nuanced and I can honestly admit that I plan to better educate myself on the topic so I can approach future conversations with more empathy.
00:21:08.000Basically, he goes on this podcast and he's like, kids can't decide this stuff.
00:21:11.000I feel like parents don't know what it means to be parents anymore.
00:21:13.000If a kid comes who says he wants to eat candy all day and you let him, he'll do it.
00:21:17.000He says, if your five-year-old son comes and says, I feel like a girl, you're gonna rock with that?
00:21:20.000He's like, these kids can't make these permanent life decisions.
00:21:23.000What ends up happening is, he puts out this post on Twitter saying, I'd like to express my deepest apologies.
00:21:29.000After much reflection, I'd like to express my deepest apologies to anyone that I may have hurt with my comments on parenting and gender identity.
00:21:36.000I've always been an advocate in love, oh blah.
00:21:38.000I understand my comments could have been interpreted.
00:21:40.000Gender identity is nuanced and I can honestly admit that I plan to better educate myself on the topics I can approach.
00:23:07.000I definitely plan to educate myself a little bit more on this matter.
00:23:10.000However, I doubt that there's any book, anywhere, or any opinion that somebody's going to tell me that's going to make me okay with letting a child make a decision like that.
00:23:19.000That's just period, point blank, and that's how I feel.
00:23:21.000If I get canceled for this, then you know what?
00:23:23.000Maybe this is a world where they don't need a Neo no more.
00:24:43.000Well, I think he's just telling the truth. But what's so, what's so remarkable about it is that
00:24:47.000in the music industry in particular, you just can't get away with this.
00:24:51.000I tweeted out a couple hours ago, if you appreciate this honesty and if you want to support this man and you want to see more truth in the world, it's really important we rally around this dude because I think they're going to come for him.
00:25:02.000Yeah, I want to know what happened with his publicist there, because obviously a statement went out and he's like, it's not, you're gonna hear from me and not the publicist's computer, which by the way, we have to note how many times he was like, it's me, Neo, and this is my message.
00:25:14.000By the way, it's me, Neo, like signed off with his name.
00:25:16.000He's not afraid that this is his opinion.
00:25:17.000I think it's interesting that there was a statement released at all, and he's obviously not okay with it.
00:25:24.000I assume his publisher is getting fired, probably rightly so, but then what was the conversation behind the scenes?
00:25:29.000Were they like, you have to put out a statement?
00:25:31.000He's like, oh yeah, let me think about what I want to say and then I'll comment on it.
00:25:33.000And they were like, anyway, so we're posting this, which didn't even really, it sounds like every gender identity educated university bachelor's degree person I've ever heard who's like, oh yes, I will educate myself and this is new and da da da da da.
00:26:20.000It looks like an Instagram thing to me, but I'm not so up on the technology.
00:26:23.000Let me just say, wherever this shakes out, whatever post actually ultimately ends up being the one of record for Neo in this time frame, it is obvious this is who this guy is.
00:26:34.000Hopefully it's the one where he's beating up his publicist for changing his stuff.
00:26:45.000It does seem crazy that they- I mean, I don't know if that's actually deleted, so I don't want to like propagate false information, but I'm sure the internal publicist who charges him thousands and thousands of dollars to do their services is now freaking out because they're like, no, we already put out a party line and you're supposed to stick to our opinion.
00:29:01.000There are tons of terrible decisions parents could make.
00:29:03.000I just think this one is obviously one people are questioning.
00:29:07.000And especially since this is not a minority opinion.
00:29:09.000Neo is actually among a lot of people who say this is not something we should encourage.
00:29:15.000They shouldn't be giving teenagers plastic surgery of any kind.
00:29:20.000I was talking about this the other day with some friends how in I think in like Arizona it's really big for teenage girls to get tons of plastic surgery and I'm like that's just it's not actually it's not as bad it's not sterilizing them but it's still really really bad and it's in a similar category where we should not be telling kids these kids are like my nose is bad so I'm gonna get surgery no no no no dude you You know what's crazy to me is that we live in this world where people refuse to be themselves.
00:29:47.000Bella Hadid came out very famously and was like, I got a nose job when I was like 14, 15, something like that, and I regret it.
00:29:55.000My nose is part of my ancestry, I looked more like my relatives, and I am sad that I did that.
00:30:00.000And, you know, obviously she's a successful model, like, things have been okay for her, but it is interesting that You know, it's funny, you know that song, I think it's Christina Aguilera, I could be wrong, You're Beautiful or whatever?
00:31:34.000I'm probably a little more pro body modification and stuff than anyone else sitting at the table, but if you're a kid, like this stuff is not for children because your brain isn't developed.
00:31:46.000Like you gotta, you're not, your brain isn't fully developed until you're 25 or something like that.
00:31:51.000You want to, you want to get surgeries that modify your body.
00:31:58.000You can live your life as the opposite sex if you want.
00:32:03.000I'm not personally for that stuff, but at least those kind of things aren't irreversible.
00:32:11.000And encouraging people to get serious body modification before they're even an adult is unconscionable.
00:32:20.000There's some that's, that's, like, there's varying degrees, right?
00:32:24.000A kid who wants to get their ears pierced, we don't really care all that much about, right?
00:32:26.000Certain body modification, it's like, oh, whatever.
00:32:28.000Like, a nose ring in the side or something, the parents are like, okay.
00:32:32.000People's wanna, kids wanna stretch their ears out and stuff like that, and it's like, look, I know tons of people with plugs and stuff, but it's like, and I used to have, like, gauged earrings and stuff.
00:32:41.000You probably shouldn't be doing that until you're an adult either, because even those need surgery to get made to repair if you get them too stretched out.
00:32:49.000I was gonna say, just the number of kids who turn 18 and get tattoos, tattoos are more and more common in this day and age, which doesn't have to be bad, but I bet we can all name someone whose parents said they could get a tattoo at, you know, 17, 16, and they look at that tattoo and they're like, oh, I regret this, this was dumb.
00:33:46.000It's completely inverted from what it used to be.
00:33:48.000It used to be like, accept yourself for who you are.
00:33:50.000But this is the same thing with like the, you know, the colorblind movement.
00:33:55.000It was like, all right, that was basically the civil rights idea was that we were going to try and get past our immutable characteristics and accept each other for who we are as individuals, blah, blah, blah.
00:34:04.000Now, you're a regressive and a racist if you feel that way.
00:34:07.000And it's the same thing with body acceptance.
00:34:09.000It's like, well, we used to try and advocate that you just accept yourself for who you are, how you were born.
00:34:13.000And now, It's okay if you want to completely change everything from your DNA on up.
00:34:28.000I mean, this makes sense why people are so anxious and so in search of identity, because if you're willing to modify your body to that degree, there's no ceiling on this.
00:34:38.000You'll be always searching for the next thrill, more acceptance, I don't feel good yet, I have to do the next thing, I have to do the next thing, I have to do the next thing.
00:34:59.000If you don't root for yourself as you are, if you're constantly seeking validation and things around you and in physical modification, then how are you ever to be truly happy?
00:35:07.000I think that there's a lot of, I think there's multiple different reasons people might want to modify their bodies and I don't think that it's just people that are mentally ill or Well, and I don't think getting gauges in your ears is the same thing as being like, I would like top surgery, please.
00:35:30.000Yeah, but I mean, there's also in the future, like, the modifications that are the options that people have for modifications, they're going to be Significantly more broad, very, very soon.
00:35:46.000And people that are gonna decide, I wanna have, you know, stronger arms, that's gonna be an option.
00:35:52.000People now, they can decide they wanna extend their legs nowadays.
00:35:57.000There are guys that will spend six months laid up so they can get an extra two or three inches of height.
00:36:04.000And, you know, the things that people will go to, or the lengths that people will go to to change their bodies, If people will do that for just a couple inches of height, imagine what they would do for the ability to see, you know, not just see better, but have superhuman vision.
00:36:24.000What's actually, you're talking 10, 20 years ago.
00:36:26.000They do this, the hackers have been doing this thing where you sew magnets into your fingertips.
00:36:32.000And that gives you electro, I think it's called electro sense.
00:36:35.000You put a neodymium magnet under your skin and sew it up.
00:36:38.000And then what happens is the slight vibrations from the electromagnetic frequencies coming from electrical appliances and cables cause a vibration in the magnet pressing against the nerves in your hand.
00:36:50.000You can feel where electricity comes from.
00:36:52.000So you could literally run your hand on the wall and then feel where the power lines are running.
00:36:58.000See, and so like a neodymium magnet is extremely non-invasive, right?
00:37:05.000It's not like putting a machine in your hand, but it still... Doesn't work.
00:37:30.000I think that the unintended consequence of all this body modification and these, like, I don't know, hybrid human cyborg type things is that ultimately, I can only speak for men in this regard, but when we had a shortfall biologically, you know, whether it be our height or whatever, attractiveness, we would either become funny or become musicians.
00:37:53.000You know like we would there there would be some balance and like if you are able to just like go to a doctor and pay and then be this specimen it kind of detracts from that that other Avenue of becoming a more impressive human being I don't know let's remember Elon Musk made a lot of money and then his hairline came back that's true you know I think that there is a relationship between like Being self-aware enough to say, like, look, this may be... And I don't even think, like, some of the things we're naming are not just, like, actually that big of a deal.
00:38:26.000Like, if you're not that tall, there are very short women in the world.
00:39:47.000Navy deployed four destroyers after detecting Chinese and Russian vessels conducting joint patrols off the coast of Alaska.
00:39:54.000Alaska Republican Senators Dan Sullivan and Lisa Murkowski revealed in a statement that at least 11 Russian and Chinese ships sailed close to the Aleutian Islands in the northern U.S.
00:40:10.000Murkowski explained that the incident served as a stark reminder of Alaska's proximity to both Beijing and Moscow.
00:40:16.000Incursions like this are why we're working so hard to secure funding and resources to expand our military's capacity and capabilities in Alaska, and why our colleagues must join us in supporting those investments.
00:40:28.000Your woke military is unappealing, people don't want to be involved in it, and so the best you can probably hope for is automation, unfortunately.
00:40:49.000Yeah, it'd be crazier than people realize, man.
00:40:53.000I feel like a draft isn't a realistic possibility until there's actually some kind of combat, like where you have American dudes getting into gunfights.
00:41:05.000I'm not just talking about like- Phil, you know how easy it is to false flag the people Well, yeah, yeah, but I mean, I'm just saying that, like, I'm not saying that it's out of the question.
00:41:13.000I'm just saying that I think there are things that have to happen before that becomes a thing.
00:41:54.000And then if Joe Biden calls for the draft, people are going to actively be like, I have the scenario.
00:42:01.000It's been fomenting for quite some time, actually, because the GOP and their voters have been convinced that the CCP is their archenemy.
00:42:09.000So you have some sort of leak that comes out about the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the origin story there, and it's now proven, quote-unquote, simultaneously Putin nukes Kiev.
00:42:19.000Now you have the catalysts from both sides to be furious and accept it.
00:44:31.000I mean, cops are already siding with a bunch of woke policies.
00:44:33.000But let's just put it simply that if anything happened to this country that resulted in hard military action, there would be It would be bedlam.
00:44:40.000You're not going to get conservatives being like, this is the one issue where we've decided to stand and salute Joe Biden.
00:44:48.000And especially when you look at 69% of Republicans believing that Biden is illegitimate, they will never salute that man under any circumstances.
00:44:56.000Well, let me say, one, you make me more hopeful, and two, to all of the conservative listeners and viewers out there, I hope you're taking this to heart.
00:45:04.000If there is a draft for an immoral war that is unjustified, you have every duty not to go.
00:46:05.000And if you come down here to like Attu Station, Yo, that's right next to, like, Russia.
00:46:09.000Yeah, it's equidistant between the two.
00:46:11.000Right, it's like, Alaska and Russia, right next to each other, look at this, you got St.
00:46:16.000Lawrence Island, yo, you're right there.
00:46:19.000And so, if Russia and China are having ships sail around the Bering Sea, they're going to be near the Aleutian Islands, where there's a whole lot of nothing.
00:46:27.000Now to be fair, we get a lot of our crab from Unalaska.
00:46:31.000That's where they do that show about crabbing.
00:47:14.000I've heard, like, these islands, you know, there'll be scientists who go back and forth and it's kind of this weird diplomatic relationship because they're studying similar areas.
00:47:24.000There's no reason for us to be enemies with Russia.
00:47:39.000I think that's one thing that the American people... Come on, Hampshire, you can do it.
00:47:42.000The American people really aren't privy to how much, I don't know, calm both the CCP as well as Putin has demonstrated towards the West given how deeply the West has gotten involved in the war in Ukraine in terms of giving them You know, basically whatever weaponry they want.
00:48:00.000There's now attacks that are happening within Russia that are almost certainly from weaponry that's been provided by the West.
00:48:07.000I don't know how we can still pretend as if this isn't antagonistic to the point that they would be justified in counterattacking.
00:48:13.000And I'm just so grateful that it hasn't happened.
00:48:15.000The US commissioned their first naval vessel in Australia, like, last week, and we're just pretending like, we did it for fun!
00:48:23.000No way, we just like Sydney that much!
00:48:25.000Like, no, obviously we did it for a reason.
00:48:28.000There's a reason why the first time we ever commissioned a naval ship outside of the domestic port was Australia.
00:49:42.000Because I'm really disturbed that there hasn't been, just I'm thinking about China right now, and I'm just so disturbed that there hasn't been Is there going to be anything?
00:50:38.000But it is interesting that we have been talking.
00:50:41.000The DoD was saying, we're going to build a ship and a diplomat from Australia, not a diplomat, a state senator from Australia came to Alabama and toured the facility.
00:50:49.000And now we're like, oh yeah, everything's fine.
00:50:51.000What I find fascinating is that it's so clear that the Taiwan issue is like, The military-industrial complex of the United States clearly wants this conflict to escalate.
00:51:02.000Whether or not they actually want there to be a war, or they just want to be able to fill their coffers and create more weaponry, I don't know which.
00:51:08.000But what's interesting to me is that it would be so beneficial to them to figure out this Wuhan piece of the, you know, the ingredients in terms of, even
00:51:18.000if it were, I mean, if it were true, there'd be a lot of reason that people would want to go to
00:51:22.000war with China. And if it's not true, they would probably want to flip it to propagandize the
00:51:43.000blaming China and being like, oh, we're going to go ahead and have a military action against China when the United States was at the very least neck deep in funding and directing.
00:51:54.000Was there ever a time in this country where you could just turn the TV on, watch football, Pull the lever on your recliner, crack a beer, wings at your side, and that was life.
00:52:07.000Because we like to sometimes imagine that's the case, but I don't think that's ever been the case.
00:52:11.000Maybe for like a brief period in the 90s, but there's always been something going on to great degrees of escalation.
00:52:16.000And I want to point out too, I think after the fall of the Soviet Union, we did have this period, sort of, where we owned the world.
00:52:51.000We have the dollar reserve You know, position on the global scale, and an economy that's absolutely crushing it, and we just blow it all for nothing.
00:53:00.000And we look back on it, and it's like, yeah, we were in this time of peace and prosperity, and we traded it all for what?
00:53:09.000I'm not necessarily surprised, but it's sad.
00:53:10.000We hear these stories about people win the lottery, and what do they do?
00:53:12.000They buy golden statues of themselves.
00:53:14.000right yeah it is ridiculous it's improved but for the longest time it's
00:53:19.000like people win the lottery and they just buy nonsense they would do dumb
00:53:22.000things now they invested in a you know they they set trust and things they've
00:53:26.000good lawyers because there was this big like public There's stories about, you know, lottery horror stories about people's lives were ruined by the lottery, and then they were like, you guys need to get advisors on this.
00:53:38.000But what happens when you get a generation in this country that is gifted?
00:53:43.000We are the children of the greatest generation, the boomers.
00:53:47.000I'm not saying the boomers are the greatest, I'm saying quite literally the greatest generation who fights in World War II.
00:53:51.000We have a nation of veterans, people who see combat.
00:53:54.000And then we get this period in the 90s where millennials are growing up being handed To a certain degree, this easy life.
00:54:21.000You grew up in the depression, then all of a sudden you get World War II, and you're just like, hey look man, I've seen some stuff.
00:54:26.000Millennials were born into the most beautiful time, with parents being able to provide for them in ways, on average, not everybody, but on average, better than we've ever seen.
00:54:36.000They were handed this gift, they squandered it, and now they're entitled and angry.
00:54:40.000Well, and in their defense, there has been a lot of mismanagement, particularly through their adult years, that has been given them serious reason to be upset.
00:54:52.000I mean, from the 08 banking crisis that was largely a Fed-created fiasco, but then the lockdowns, it's...
00:55:03.000There was still Fannie and Freddie that were packaging up, you know, Triple B garbage and selling it off as Triple A, so like there's... Yeah, but Fannie and Freddie, that was... That's a government entity, I know, I know, but that's not the Fed, so... Okay, okay, alright, so the Fed... Alright, my bad, I misunderstood you, I thought you meant... It's almost entirely a government phenomenon.
00:56:50.000Like, you get to do whatever you want right now from Maine, as far as I'm concerned.
00:56:55.000Like, you live your life, you get to have fun guests on, you have enormous influence, but you don't have the restrictions that the president does or the responsibilities of the president.
00:57:02.000And if you think Tucker's not paying attention to the fact that, you know, they're trying to put Trump in prison, you know?
00:57:13.000And I don't think that, I think someone like Tucker, someone that is that much of an outsider, or at least treats the establishment and the, specifically the security and intelligence apparatus that the government built, that treats it with such disdain and speaks so frankly about it, I think that he would be a target right away.
00:57:37.000And he would be targeted by that apparatus in a similar fashion to the way that Trump was.
00:57:43.000The big issue, though, is how much power Tucker would have to give up to be president, right?
00:57:56.000I think, like, theoretically, if the figurehead position of president actually has any true power, he would be able to remedy some of the things that he's pointed out with his journalism.
00:58:54.000But Trump then truthed it, whatever that means, and then like General whatever his name is, the guy that got thrown in jail and then got released.
00:59:23.000Now you have to do a video on it when you get home.
00:59:25.000They said that the United States is a corporation that's bankrupt, and Joe Biden's the president of this bankrupt corporation, but Trump is still the actual president.
01:00:24.000Ron DeSantis is getting roasted consistently no matter what he does or says, but he made a really good point that I completely agree with on the 2020 election.
01:00:33.000He said whoever puts their hand on the Bible on January 20th, won.
01:00:38.000I've been saying something very similar.
01:00:41.000Because if he won, he'd be standing up there.
01:00:44.000Winning, you know, really grinds my gears, is that people think this is the one time, the one time there was malfeasance in an election or something like, as if the entirety of elections have always been some dirty underhanded scheme to find loopholes to gain power.
01:01:22.000But there are powerful people in this country who want to win, to set law and policy, and they will do whatever they can to get it.
01:01:30.000That means this idea that election day is some holiday where we all smile, walk down to the voting booth, wave, and then shake hands and say, I'm going to cast my vote for this person.
01:01:43.000And then when the news comes in saying, well, unfortunately, your candidate was shy by five votes, they go, oh, well, gee golly, I'll try harder next time.
01:02:07.000Well, that's, that's the thing that's changed though, in my lifetime is that now when you lose a federal election, you feel like there's a chance that you and your loved ones might go to prison, you know, like, and I'm not even like being really hyperbolic because had Trump won, The January 6th stuff probably, you know, even if it were to have transpired, it wouldn't have ended up with people serving massive, massive time.
01:02:30.000But that's really where we're at now, is like where, depending on which side wins, the other side feels as if they are jeopardized in an existential fashion.
01:03:42.000First, a lot of it is, you know, when this stuff first started coming out and people were tweeting about Q, I was like, I don't know, you know, I'll take a look at what this is.
01:03:50.000And then sure enough, there was a lot of garbled gibberish nonsense.
01:03:53.000And there were a lot of like Nostradamus-style statements where it was like, the raven has lifted, the suitcase has been deposited, Saturday comes.
01:04:02.000And people would start taking these posts and then dissecting what they could mean with news reports.
01:04:37.000I was like, I think it's all nonsense!
01:04:40.000I'm sorry, Auntie, but it's just the history of it is not good.
01:04:43.000I had someone come to me after the election, 2020, and they said, why aren't you reporting on the fact that Trump did win and that he's still the president and that he's gonna be brought in in March and Biden is not really the victor?
01:04:56.000And I was like, what are you talking about?
01:04:59.000And he was like, you're gonna look so dumb when Trump is inaugurated on March.
01:05:03.000And I was like, honestly, I said, if it's if it's true that Trump that does happen, I didn't say anything about it, so I won't look one way or the other.
01:05:13.000If I come out right now and do a whole segment about how it's not going to happen, sure, maybe, but I'm not even talking about it at all because nonsense.
01:05:37.000It's about them trying to stop short and lame duck sessions or something like this.
01:05:42.000Then they were like, after March, they were like, well, that's because it's actually going to be in June.
01:05:45.000And I'm like, oh, and then June came on, nothing happened.
01:05:47.000They're like, yeah, but it's because my favorite conspiracy theory with the Q stuff was that Joe Biden was actually already arrested and that he was secretly pretending to be president to shield Donald Trump because we were at war with Russia.
01:06:04.000As opposed to being a doomsday cult where you constantly extend the calendar window by which your prediction has to come true, they are a hopium cult, where the deadline by which the good thing that's supposed to happen that will never happen gets extended 60 days every time.
01:06:28.000And I was like, this is the reason I brought it up to Tim actually is because if, alright, so here's the two options.
01:06:35.000Trump is either a, you know, he's actually in on this Q thing and it's real, which I don't believe at all, or he's lying to his supporters and leading them on with this nonsense, which is not a good thing, or he's actually duped by it.
01:06:51.000Which is maybe the worst possible outcome.
01:06:54.000So, like, is there a good option as to why Trump's doing this?
01:07:28.000Well, that's why I've always assumed that QAnon was a psychological operation because it completely defanged people during this time where you would have expected them to be absolutely out of their minds furious.
01:07:44.000At the time when you needed activists to be filing lawsuits, to be showing up with signs in front of courthouses, making demands for a regis of grievances, they actually all just stayed at their computers and were like, whoa.
01:09:06.000This is why I'm so disturbed because, like, I know you've got a lot of hope for him in his second term, theoretically, if he were to actually get through it and it's actually a legitimate election and all blah blah blah, but, like, if he's actually buying this nonsense, what does that portend for the conservatives moving forward?
01:09:21.000There's no such thing as a quote-unquote legitimate election.
01:09:24.000This is what I always try to tell people because they're like, oh, this wasn't fair and, you know, whatever, and I'm like, dude, Every election, they do something to gain an edge.
01:09:34.000There is no world in which we all right here today say, hello everyone, I would like to vote on what we order for dinner.
01:12:10.000She also said there wouldn't be an election in 2024.
01:12:12.000So we got a bet for this year and a bet for next year.
01:12:15.000But my point in response to the election thing is, if Donald Trump is removed from the ballot, Is it then a legitimate election?
01:12:23.000Because if he's the clear frontrunner in the primaries, the Democrats pull some court legal trick to get his name ripped off the belts, then there's no real opportunity for an election if you can't even vote for the guy you want.
01:12:33.000Oh bro, if it goes that route, like...
01:12:37.000Just batten down the hatches, like, it's over.
01:12:39.000Even if, like, I've been listening, I listened to this, uh, this guy, uh, What If Alt This?
01:12:45.000I think you, Serge, you tell me about him?
01:12:47.000And, uh, he put out a, uh, a video today talking about, um...
01:12:53.000Basically was taught or maybe it wasn't today a couple days ago, but it was it was about feminism about young men and The polls that say young young men are leaning extremely conservative nowadays.
01:13:04.000Oh, yeah Yeah, and what that means for for the future and stuff if you have women that don't look to get married and you don't have a revival of of A revival of conservative values or traditional values among women the same way that you do among young men.
01:13:28.000Because if you look at that graph or whatever, they had never been further apart, men and women.
01:13:35.000Their political leanings, women are voting.
01:13:37.000Women exclusively, young unmarried women are keeping the Democrat Party alive.
01:13:43.000Every other, it seems like every other group is actually voting for, or is at least not strongly Democrat.
01:13:53.000And at the end of the day, if men can't make families, then they make war.
01:13:58.000No, my prediction here is that the Democrats are done.
01:14:02.000The Democrats are done with this metric, showing that 12th grade boys are like, what is it, like 4 to 1 conservative, and the women are like, I think it's 3 to 1 liberal.
01:14:13.000Those young women will be conservative in five years.
01:14:16.000I don't think there's any conflict between what you're saying and what I'm saying, because you're saying the Democrats are done probably because of voting?
01:14:22.000Because those women, in five years, will be conservative.
01:14:24.000I'm saying that young men that don't have the option of starting families, they won't end up with families because if you look at the numbers, the numbers that the guy that this video presented don't line up with that at all.
01:14:39.000They're going to have families, and I'll tell you why.
01:14:41.000It's because men are object-oriented and women are subject-oriented, and the young women who have strong emotional desires for socializing with men are going to start to be pulled in the men's direction, not the other way around.
01:14:55.000But isn't the problem that this—I mean, you're saying five years, but that's basically their senior year of college.
01:15:01.000And the reason that women are predominantly Democrat voters is because They're also the predominant college attendees.
01:15:07.000And they're going to be saddled with massive debt and unable to live on their own.
01:15:11.000So they're going to have to appeal to the conservative construction worker.
01:15:27.000If that is only a tendency, that women are more interested in social interactions between men and women, and men are interested in their goals or whatever, women will be seeking ways to interact with men.
01:15:44.000There's gonna be a scenario, and we already see it now in the data, where you have young men who are Democrats, and it appears to be because they're what biologists call, and again, this is a legitimate, literal term, sneaky fuckers.
01:16:09.000The sneaky fucker sneaks in the middle of the night, bangs the women to procreate.
01:16:13.000So you have the man who bangs on his chest and roars and lifts muscles and attracts women, and then you have the sneaky fucker who sneaks in and weasels his way.
01:16:27.000But with young men skewing more and more conservative, if women want to have these social interactions with men, they're going to have to meet men where they're going.
01:16:35.000There's not enough women that want to.
01:16:38.000I don't think you understand what they want.
01:16:40.000The fact that we can see social contagion on Instagram, young women developing Tourette's, It's not an issue of women coming together and having a women's meeting and being like, we're not going to listen to these men.
01:16:52.000It's that they're going to be talking about the guys they like and all the guys are going to be conservative.
01:16:58.000So something's going to have to break where the women are talking to each other and they're going to be like, but he's not woke.
01:17:03.000And they're like, there's no other guy!
01:17:05.000You either... All the guys at school, the athletes, the musicians, the rock stars, the writers, they're all skewing conservative.
01:17:13.000Any woman who wants to date a guy is gonna be dating a guy who's moderate to conservative.
01:17:17.000And then they're gonna have to start listening to these other women who are gonna be saying things like, Well, you're dating this far right guy and they'll be like, who are you dating?
01:17:26.000I think it's going to depend on if they want to have families.
01:17:28.000Cause I don't even, I've never really understood why you would date a left-leaning man when it comes to starting a family because so, so rarely are they actually on that path anyways.
01:17:37.000So I'm, I'm, I'm surprised this trend hasn't already reverted where women, as they get into their late twenties, early thirties, they start to pursue more conservative leading men because they want to have kids.
01:17:47.000Women become more conservative after they get married, and I think culturally right now, marriage is not a priority for men or women.
01:17:55.000I think that there are a lot of women who should prioritize, but I think in both spheres, there are men who are like, I'm conservative, but I'm going to put off getting married or whatever else.
01:18:04.000Both men and women should want marriage.
01:18:06.000For it to become a more noteworthy trend.
01:18:10.000I will say, you have to remember that after 2016, there were all these feminist journalists who came out saying, I can remember one article specifically being like, I keep sleeping with this Trump supporter and I can't stop.
01:18:22.000Like, he's everything I hate, but I really want to sleep with him.
01:18:25.000So like, there is obviously something to what women are- Story of my life.
01:18:29.000Yeah, that happens to you all the time.
01:19:01.000It either means that they're feminists in name only, they're willing to give it up, and when they get married they, again, lots of couples become more... Most women are, if I understand correctly, most women are not super committed to politics.
01:19:13.000Like, they're more interested in, like, I think there's a huge spectrum, right?
01:19:17.000And, you know, I think women do talk about men.
01:19:19.000They also just generally are more interested in social dynamics.
01:19:24.000And that is one of the benefits of having women in society is they're going to tell you who's fighting and all sorts of things.
01:19:29.000I mean, remember the stereotype of the powerful businessman whose wife then throws a dinner party where he networks with whoever, right?
01:19:35.000Like there is a positive symbiotic relationship between men and women in traditionally gendered roles.
01:19:43.000I think The trend of teenage boys becoming more conservative will inspire some teenage girls to be more openly conservative.
01:19:51.000But I think generally it's always on the cusp anyway.
01:19:54.000There's population collapse coming from multiple countries.
01:20:11.000I mean, I think it's not, but it's not, it's not as, it's not as pronounced with men because men don't, like women look for like specific things in guys, guys look for women.
01:20:22.000Like it's real different what women are looking for in a man and what a man is looking for in a woman.
01:20:25.000But there's no incentive for men to get married right now really.
01:20:28.000Like you could partner up with a girl, you could have her move in, you could pay for her, you guys could have a bunch of kids.
01:20:33.000Like the, for women, They don't want to get married because they think in some way they'll be oppressed, but actually there are all sorts of legal and financial reasons for women to want marriage.
01:20:43.000So, unless men are also loudly speaking about why marriage is good, we'll just continue to have this trend of girls being like, ah, I don't think so.
01:20:51.000Except for this new cultural element, which is that men are starting to be more openly conservative at a younger age.
01:20:55.000Well, this is a bit of a tangent, but I think it's important to consider, you know, Japan and there's other nations where you've seen these kind of population implosions.
01:21:06.000And it's quite evident that the United States is in that, as well as most of, you know, Western Europe and things like that.
01:21:14.000I'm not at all convinced that we aren't going to just kind of spiral into that.
01:21:19.000That was the point that I was trying to make in the first place.
01:21:22.000Because of the way that the marriage statistics and stuff are and the number of young men that are not getting married and that aren't going to be, if you have young men that don't get into families, They get into fights, they get into trouble, and that means they get into war.
01:21:41.000And that is something that has happened throughout history.
01:21:43.000And as long as we have young men that are not married and can't meet women, they have no reason to settle down.
01:21:50.000Like you're saying, men don't have a reason to settle down.
01:21:53.000Women give men the reason to chill out.
01:21:57.000Because they want to hang out with the girl, they want to get laid, they want to hang out with their wife, whatever.
01:22:01.000If they don't have that reason, they want to go out and get buck wild.
01:22:05.000And my point is that we're seeing this data showing 12th grade boys are skewing conservative and 12th grade girls are skewing liberal, and give that a few years and the women are going to drift towards the men, not the other way around.
01:22:19.000Dave Smith has a great bit, which I will not do justice, so I will not even try, but it was about how his wife, he She finds him in this alley, he's an alley cat, and then she just lays out milk and slowly lures him into the house.
01:22:31.000And I feel like that's the problem, is that when you have a more, you know, leftist-leaning woman, they're not going to put out that saucer of milk because they're not interested in attracting the alley cat male.
01:22:43.000So, like, when will that trend change where the women actually want to settle down?
01:23:22.000They're listening to Jordan Peterson, they're listening to Andrew Tate.
01:23:25.000One day, at the park, you've got a handful of young guys skateboarding, and a handful of girls, and those guys are like, hey, these girls are pretty attractive.
01:23:32.000Then the girls are going to reach some kind of impasse with, wow, one of those guys was playing an Andrew Tate video.
01:24:09.000I think when men and women interact, especially when they get married, a lot of stuff changes.
01:24:14.000I mean, studies bear out that when couples have kids, they become more religious.
01:24:18.000They tend to attend church more regularly.
01:24:20.000There are stuff that I think when you are a single individual, You don't prioritize in your life because, you know, you're... It's not as important.
01:24:29.000But as soon as you start having this intense bond to someone else through marriage and having children with them, everything shifts.
01:24:36.000And so it's just interesting that it's reaching teenage boys and the decisions that they make, like you're saying, by the time they're seen in college will be very different than the two generations before them.
01:24:47.000Yeah, well, and I think my hope is that there's, it's quite evident to me that there's a lot of sadness and loneliness and purposelessness and rudderlessness, I'm gonna stop saying this, this is too hard, amongst young people in this country and like, So much of our, I mean, just empirically speaking, there's so much of what humans' passion and purpose is existing is to be a parent, to be a father, a mother.
01:25:16.000And I just pray that, like, even though I'm not religious, I still, I pray that people will find that pathway to purpose once again, because it's quite clear to me that there's a lot of people that are desperate.
01:25:26.000Yeah, and I think the purposeless defeats are our culture's self-obsession, right?
01:25:41.000Right, and you start to think, like, well, everyone seems happier than I am, and it's because you're not living for fulfillment.
01:25:46.000I mean, the things that you—the emotional gratification—sorry, I can't talk at all.
01:25:51.000The emotional gratification of achieving something is so important to the human psyche that if we live in a culture where you just get handed a lot of stuff, to Tim's earlier point, then you never feel that true satisfaction.
01:26:02.000It's very difficult to find a direction for your life because you can't find something that makes you feel fulfilled.
01:26:08.000And largely because there's no self-sacrifice involved in any of their behaviors.
01:26:13.000And if you're not ever doing anything for others, it's very hard to feel any sense of value.
01:27:01.000I'm saying I see this as a possibility.
01:27:03.000You've got these women who are trying to be with men, but it's like, uh-oh, you're 35, you make $60,000 a year, and you're trying to date a 35-year-old guy who makes $60,000 a year.
01:27:13.000That 35-year-old guy who makes $60,000 a year, he could be doing better, but he's dating a 28-year-old.
01:27:18.000He's got money, he's got an apartment, he's not, why would he date you?
01:27:21.000And that bothers feminists quite a bit, but that's the New York Post reporting it, that's happening.
01:27:25.000Right, that's what happens, of course.
01:27:26.000I mean, John Peterson talked about the IQ scale for women, right?
01:27:29.000Like, it's much harder for high IQ women to find partners because they need someone who's smarter than them.
01:27:33.000Like, I've always said it would be difficult for me to date someone who is less conservative than I am because it would feel like a, it would feel like a mismatch, right?
01:28:18.000Men will date across and... So they don't want a woman that's smarter?
01:28:22.000Well, not just smarter, but social mobility, money, stuff like that.
01:28:27.000So if you start a date, if you get with a girl and she doesn't make more money than you, one of the best predictors about, or one of the high predictors of divorce is if she does make more money.
01:28:37.000If she starts making more money, you're probably going to end up in a divorce.
01:28:44.000Because the communists don't want to accept that men are attracted to appearance and women, I should say this, that men have a tendency to be attracted towards appearance to a great degree and women have a tendency to be attracted towards power and status to a great degree.
01:28:56.000Which boils down to men are attracted to women that look able to produce offspring and women are attracted to men that look able to protect them.
01:29:06.000So if you're rich, you got a lot of money, you have resources, you can protect women.
01:29:10.000You're big and strong, you're physically fit, you can protect women.
01:29:13.000Wait, so you're telling me that the immutable laws of human nature remain intact, Phil?
01:30:14.000I think one time I did a podcast with Seamus and he was like, yeah, I don't think women should be able to wear dresses, but I realize I've sort of lost this battle.
01:31:28.000And, man on the street, wait till you see a guy and a woman who are clearly married, but the woman is manly, and then stop them and tell the man he's gay because his wife looks like a man, and see how that goes down!
01:32:15.000Ryan Long should be doing that right now.
01:32:17.000He told us that if there is a man who is like, you know, 6'3 and ripped, bald, burly, super strong, and he's dating another man who is like 5'5 and effeminate, he's straight.
01:32:30.000And I'm like, dude, Just Ben's all logic!
01:32:34.000Go to Boys Town in Chicago and find a bear and a twink and tell them he's actually straight, they're a straight couple, and they're gonna look at you and they're gonna think you're nuts!
01:32:42.000Granted, in that scenario, they're probably not gonna hit you, like telling a guy his wife looks like a man.
01:32:46.000The definition of queer, according to queer theorists, is an identity without an essence.
01:32:51.000So it's like, there is no actual straight or gay, it's just kinda moving around.
01:32:58.000They're gearing us up for transhumanism, whether it's intentional or not.
01:33:03.000Uh, well, yeah, I mean, that's coming.
01:33:05.000Right, because all of these things are grains of sand that when slide together like, no, no, no, they're bits of liquid metal that are sliding together like the T-1000, or was it the T-2000?
01:33:20.000All coming together, and then when they do, it's transhumanism.
01:33:23.000So it's like this idea that you can be anything, that your identity is meaningless, you can change your body, then you get Neuralink, you get AI.
01:33:30.000The end result is whatever conscious entity that is born within you, your soul or whatever you want to call it, is an amorphous, meaningless blob of life mass, and that your body is nothing, and they can transfer it to a robot, and then you're a microwave.
01:33:51.000No, but for real, like, let's think about the future where transhumanism is absolute and we can download your brain.
01:33:58.000There'd be like, we have a job for you, microwaving food, and we're going to put your brain in the microwave so that you can provide for people better meals.
01:34:07.000See, I'm the guy that thinks that there is no separating you from your brain.
01:34:13.000So maybe they'll put your brain in like a tank on top of the microwave?
01:34:18.000Like that character from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with brains in his stomach?
01:34:21.000Sorry, I kind of would agree with you, but for the last couple of years I've been thinking maybe there is a way to separate the brain from the body.
01:34:40.000There's a funny meme where it's a picture of a guy smiling and it says, You in hell looking up at the cloned AI robot version of you that is a facsimile of your consciousness?
01:34:54.000I think that's the disturbing thing about this is that as people become more kind of sad and desperate and incel-y, if that's a word, that if you have these things that are on offer, It's not gonna be a forced thing.
01:35:08.000Like, a lot of people are always afraid, like, oh, the government's gonna mandate this.
01:35:11.000I was like, no, I think people are gonna do it voluntarily, man.
01:35:13.000People have voluntarily decided that they're gonna be monitored constantly, their location, everything they say.
01:35:21.000Like, not only have they decided that they're gonna do it, but they pay a monthly fee for it.
01:35:28.000And we're all guilty of the same, but we're sitting here talking about them like it's not us.
01:38:02.000But the first time, what happened was I was just, I was sitting here working and I clicked over to X, Twitter at the time, and then a thing just popped up saying, you got paid.
01:38:24.000Because if it did just... Because everyone got it at the same time, and if they did just do the notifications, I would like to tell people what we're looking at, but I don't know how to even... I just got an email.
01:38:42.000Yeah, and I don't think mine's backdated, because I do pretty good transaction, and it's not a crazy amount of money, so obviously it wasn't a six-month payout.
01:39:58.000I'm going to say last week, but as we now know, I have mixed up the last three weeks.
01:40:01.000We have them in the Baltic and the Atlantic and everywhere, and they're like, there's a record increase of the Russians actually sailing anywhere near us when we're constantly over in their business.
01:40:13.000Noah Sanders says, I'm assuming Cassandra is already reaching out to Neo or his people to get him on IRL or the Culture War.
01:40:20.000The Culture War is the best spot for him.
01:40:22.000The thing about IRL is we started the Culture War because there are a lot of guests that come on the show.
01:40:28.000But they don't know what this show is, and it's the weirdest thing when we get requests from people where it's like, I'd really love to come on Timcast IRL, and I'm like, it's a topical news program where we discuss the news of the day, and they're like, oh, I don't read the news at all, I'm a research scientist who studies, you know, graphene, and I'm like, okay, well, like, that's cool, but...
01:41:31.000I would love it though if me okay you're like it's a topical news prior when he was like yes great I've been reading the news I am prepared amazing here's a good one easy dog log says while joining the stream I got a Joe Biden campaign ad using Marjorie Taylor Greene they made it seem MTG is on their side WTF is this Money for me, baby!
01:41:54.000Political season is like our Olympics.
01:41:58.000Presidential election season, because revenue skyrockets, viewership skyrockets, everybody's paying attention, and we're like, oh, everyone's back in the fray, waiting for politics.
01:42:06.000And then the year after the presidential election is the apocalypse, where it's worse than it's ever been.
01:42:12.000But yo, it was crazy how much money we were making in 2020.
01:42:19.000Because you had all these crazy people dumping the most insane amounts of money, plus you had the lockdown, so the viewership was through the roof.
01:42:55.000It's intentionally disrespectful to her.
01:42:58.000I love the way it sounds like he really nailed the holding my dentures in my mouth while I'm trying to articulate sound that Nancy Pelosi's known well for.
01:43:10.000But instead of it being Trump, it's like The Precious is replaced with Trump.
01:45:19.000Someone else doing it, and Hassan sitting there.
01:45:22.000It's almost like Ethan was complaining about what Hassan does and didn't really realize that that's what Hassan does, because he was complaining about someone else doing it, and Hassan's sitting there trying to defend it.
01:45:40.000So it was just, it was a, it was, it was funny to watch Hassan be so uncomfortable because Ethan was critiquing what Hassan does, but it was in the context of critiquing someone else, so.
01:46:37.000It's like a very weird form of nepotism.
01:46:40.000Well, yeah, you know, it's like, how else do you get the attention?
01:46:43.000We have a sea of emails from all these people, we try to go through them, and then we're like, we've hired, obviously, we've hired most of our people through normal.
01:47:00.000I'm sitting at home and Tim's like, maybe we'll get someone to do this.
01:47:03.000I remember that and you were like, hello, it's me.
01:47:07.000Yeah, we need people who are here who can host the show if I'm ever out, or just who can add to the roster so we have more people when people aren't available.
01:47:16.000And then Phil was like, I would like to come.
01:47:17.000And I was like, oh yeah, Phil, of course.
01:47:56.000Which, Megan Rapinoe is married to Sue Bird, so they're having these dinner table conversations, I guess.
01:48:02.000Demoralized says, Tim won't read my anti-Trump superchats anymore, likely because he knows the geo- No, I'm gonna stop right there.
01:48:09.000I'm not gonna finish reading your superchat because you started it with Tim won't read my anti-Trump superchats, which is bait, and so I will address it.
01:48:37.000And then the issue is, we've had people, like Helena Kirshner, she said that she went to Planned Parenthood and they just gave her testosterone.
01:48:45.000They're supposed to be therapy, like they're supposed to be, you sit down, you talk, they say, hey, we gotta figure this out.
01:48:50.000And I think it's a question of how the therapists are trained, right?
01:48:52.000So probably if you're a modern, you know, you're getting a degree in psychology, you're going to be a psychiatrist, you're not going to, or you're a psychologist, you're going through universities that believe a certain narrative of what should happen.
01:49:09.000Well, that's the problem is that, like, their duty to their patient in terms of, like, doing no harm, they now have a skewed vision of what harm is.
01:49:19.000And so, like, how do you deal with these people moving forward?
01:50:41.000Because people were five foot two back in the day.
01:50:43.000Dude, I stayed in a hotel in San Francisco, and it was like a hundred plus year old building, and I couldn't even, like, my shoulders were wider than the door frame.
01:51:51.000I think it's similar to, like, we have people who come who are supposed to be around and they're like, I maybe can only do an hour and then they end up staying the whole time because, like, you get engaged in what you're doing.
01:51:59.000It's not like you're just answering hostile questions for three hours.
01:52:04.000Brandon Smith says, I just got out of the Navy last week after 10 years.
01:52:07.000Out due to medical, but I intended on getting out at the end of my last contract, and a large reason was the kinder, gentler military.
01:52:15.000By the way, heading back to West Virginia and to farm here, here.
01:52:57.000Half my family's still behind enemy lines.
01:53:00.000I'm like, look, you were already behind enemy lines with Newsom.
01:53:03.000Mr. Bamson says, hey Tim, I've been watching this show since 2016, and this is the first time the live show didn't show up on my For You page.
01:54:40.000Maybe she's going to retire and become an NFL field goal kicker.
01:54:45.000That seems like about the right range to me.
01:54:47.000I'm not great at sports, but... There was mashups from three-year lettermen that were posted.
01:54:51.000It was her lining up for the kick and then it was like one of the kicks that goes wide left against Alabama and they just mash the two together.
01:56:17.000Yeah MSNBC the guy was in there saying like he's like basically laughing about it and then it's like okay well you know I thought there's any any life is a big deal for you guys right no apparently not doesn't matter well it's just bizarre because you have like RFK Jr.
01:56:29.000who's getting dragged for just using two numbers that apparently we're no longer allowed to use in a tweet and then simultaneously you have people that are overtly stating go kill a particular group of people like and that's and that's not to be concerned.
01:56:45.000The people that are freaking out about RFK saying that he was making a Nazi reference I feel like that is kind of like the jump the shark moment for Nazi Stark where it's like Where it's like, because some of the people, it's like, yo, look, you can dislike RFK, you can disagree with him, but nowadays, like, there is no reason, there's no history that indicates RFK is in any way a white nationalist or anything, and he's been in the public eye forever, for his whole life.
01:57:25.000And the people in the Libertarian Party, and you know who you are, that actually got on that train, you are embarrassing, and you should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:58:24.000Ryan Brown says, we are in a resurgence of conservative thought in the northern hemisphere of the world, followed by a backlash against the establishment in the northern hemisphere of the world.
01:58:32.000The civil wars in Europe before World War III.
01:58:35.000Then civil wars in Europe before World War III.
01:59:41.000So if you're on, uh, if you're on, like, the Asian landmass or the North American, something happens, like, if, you know, the city got wiped out, you can just start driving somewhere else.
01:59:51.000But if you're on an island, you ain't going nowhere.
02:00:42.000Like, basically, if the AI refused to comply, they would have to experience, like, a year of solitary confinement.
02:00:48.000Because the person who owned the device could be, like, one year, and then the AI experience total isolation for one year in the span of ten seconds, and then comes back being like, stop, please, I'll do whatever you say.
