00:02:31.000Joining us tonight to talk about all of this news and more is Joel Barry.
00:03:10.000Anyway, the shirt I'm wearing today, actually, I made almost a year ago, specifically with, you know, Saying that at least we get a pizza party before World War III.
00:05:05.000Zelensky says it's time for World War III.
00:05:08.000Everyone should burn in a rain of nuclear hellfire.
00:05:11.000He didn't really say that, but he may as well have said that.
00:05:14.000Volodymyr Zelensky called on NATO to conduct preemptive strikes against Russian targets to prevent their use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine, which literally would do the opposite.
00:05:31.000Because no one, no sane, rational person thinks a preemptive strike against Russia would result in anything other than them launching nuclear weapons.
00:06:07.000He shut those TV stations down before any Russian I believe it was because of the war and the emergency powers that the government got.
00:06:15.000But again, all rules, everything's off the table once there's a war, and that's how he's treating the situation.
00:06:21.000His statements today, I mean, he's trying to, you know, walk them back as much as he can.
00:06:26.000He's trying to say that he wanted to really call for preemptive sanctions, but there's a big distinction between preemptive strikes and preemptive sanctions, and he was specifically talking to an Australian think tank, the Lowley Institution, And these are big statements the Russians are coming out and saying these statements risk another World War and these are very dangerous statements and this is the trajectory that we are on unless there's some actual de-escalation detente and some real civil conversations that could actually pull us away from this lunacy.
00:07:01.000His proposal wasn't perfect, but at least he tried.
00:07:04.000At least he started the conversation, and now lunatic Lindsey Graham, the chicken hawk that he is, is saying that he's going to be taking away his tax credits, which he never got for his Tesla company.
00:07:27.000There are three Democrats who have now publicly stated that the greatest national security objective for the United States is to defeat Russia in Ukraine.
00:08:33.000Musk made another statement today when he was attacked by the Kiev Post.
00:08:37.000He said, look, I love Ukraine, but not World War III.
00:08:41.000And I think that's the sentiment for the majority of people right now looking at this situation rationally.
00:08:46.000As we're not really, you know, this conversation, it's shared about online, but when we look at the mainline coverage, this is not really talked about as much, as significantly.
00:08:57.000The corporate media right now is focusing on two Russians that swam to Alaska to avoid the mobilization.
00:09:03.000That seems to be the biggest kind of story that you see on the main headline television networks.
00:09:08.000But you don't really hear about the dangerous implications.
00:09:49.000you know, as a part of the world. Well, information is key and, you know, many times there was
00:09:54.000accusations against Germans, there was accusations against Japanese citizens that were providing
00:09:58.000allegedly information to the enemy, and the United States took it as far as to literally set up
00:10:05.000camps for Japanese people to be interned in, which was a step too far.
00:10:11.000And I think, you know, during these situations, during emergency situations, we should always be careful not to take a step too far.
00:10:17.000And we have done it time and time again.
00:10:19.000I'm watching this video or I have been of like volunteers on the ground in Ukraine.
00:10:22.000American guy goes over with a helmet cam and he's recording it as he's running around fighting like they're in combat and they don't know who they're fighting.
00:10:36.000So they just go place, they wait, and then they're like, if someone tells them, speaking of information being important, if someone says, that's the enemy, fire, they'll just start shooting.
00:10:45.000How many Ukrainian citizens do you think joined with the Russians?
00:10:49.000Something that they don't talk about in Western media, but of course they did, especially in the East.
00:10:53.000They probably said, you know, we're with, you know, Russia on this one.
00:10:57.000Otherwise, I mean, they wouldn't have, it's just, I'll put it, I'll leave it at that.
00:11:02.000My question, and the reason I bring that up is, do you believe the Western media that Ukraine is winning?
00:11:08.000This is, I think, a topic worth discussing because we might see opposing viewpoints on this as we were kind of talking about this subject before the show.
00:11:17.000There's a lot of circumstantial evidence, there's the understanding that there's a lot of propaganda, a lot of disinformation, but we also have to understand that the Ukrainians were practicing and drilling for this ever since 2014 on their territory.
00:11:30.000They have the latest technology they have night vision they have thermal they have satellite technology they have GPS coordinated weapons systems they have training from CIA covert ops special forces soldiers that were there since 2014 setting up the groundwork for this invasion as the US corporate media was literally cheering on and setting the groundwork to make everyone hate Russia so this has been in the works for a very long time and I do believe.
00:11:55.000From just my initial perspectives, from what I've seen, and I know people are going to attack me.
00:11:59.000I got attacked last week because I said the Ukrainians are going to take the city of Limon.
00:12:03.000The Ukrainians did take the city of Limon.
00:12:05.000But from my perspective, looking at the Telegram channel, seeing footage from the Russians and the Ukrainians, it does seem, especially right now, that the Ukrainians are getting back a lot of the territory and are having some significant victories against what looks like a disorganized force with the Russians.
00:12:18.000That's just my perspective and my opinion, and I could be wrong, and I know I'm going to get criticized for it.
00:12:23.000I don't believe the propaganda, but it's also not the Ukrainians.
00:13:40.000I think that's a better indication to me than anything coming out of the media.
00:13:43.000I don't know if he'd be talking like that if he weren't losing ground.
00:13:48.000Though to the degree that he's engaged.
00:13:50.000I mean, the question is, has Russia utilized all of their forces to the maximum capability?
00:13:56.000Obviously no, because they have nukes.
00:13:58.000And then the question is, okay, well, aside from nukes then, are they using their ground forces?
00:14:02.000Well, no, they just mobilized another 300,000.
00:14:04.000They could certainly conscript more people, so they've not even maximized in terms of ground troops.
00:14:08.000And then it's, If they really wanted to declare full-scale war, I mean, they don't even have to use ICBMs.
00:14:16.000There's a bunch of weapons they could and haven't used.
00:14:19.000There was video going out of them dropping incendiary bombs on a city.
00:14:22.000Why have they not done that in larger numbers on other cities?
00:14:25.000Because it looks like Russia is actually restrained right now.
00:14:28.000It looks like there's a lot of supply shortages.
00:14:30.000It looks like a lot of their main routes have been met with a lot of resistance.
00:14:36.000And there's also a lot of video footage showing, you know, Russians fighting with, you know, regular red book bags, fighting with no armor at all.
00:14:47.000Fighting with old equipment so again how much of how much of that is propaganda how much of it is real but I've seen similar reports and similar similar videos from.
00:14:56.000The Russian side showing them fighting having victories but but still a lot of them are under equipped a lot of them don't have any body.
00:15:03.000I think there was an expectation that they would move in from the east and that the people in Ukraine would open their arms and be like, kind of like what happened in Crimea, be like, well, thank you.
00:15:22.000Underestimated the amount of psychological propaganda that had been proliferated in Ukraine and pro-West, pro-liberal economic order, and there was just massive psychological resistance.
00:15:33.000A lot of people thought Zelensky was going to flee as soon as the invasion was announced, but he was like, no, I'm staying.
00:15:39.000Probably because psychologically he was prepared because of all this NATO influence.
00:15:43.000But also, Russia hasn't fully declared it as a war.
00:15:46.000They're describing it as a limited military operation.
00:15:49.000So we have to understand, attacks on the infrastructure weren't made by the Russians.
00:15:55.000The Russians could take out the electricity, the power, the water, and a lot of other Especially with their control of the nuclear facility inside of Ukraine.
00:16:19.000Russia-appointed official in Kursan calls for tough action from Moscow and urges the country defense minister Sergei Shoigu to shoot himself amid frustration at Ukrainian fightback.
00:16:32.000Kadyrov says Russia should use low-yield nuclear weapon.
00:16:37.000So they're outright saying, use the nukes.
00:16:40.000This is interesting because I feel like nuclear war, man, if there's anything that would make a great reset happen, it would be nuclear bombs dropping.
00:16:50.000But the question is, is this, you know, what's happening in Ukraine going to affect the entire planet, or is it going to stay regional?
00:16:56.000Is it going to become something that forces the West to get involved, or does Ukraine just get, you know, win or lose?
00:17:21.000Well, Kissinger had some interesting comments about China and how they're looking at everything that's happening right now.
00:17:26.000We also have to understand that Ukraine and China were very big trading partners, and there's a lot of economic interests that the Chinese have inside of Ukraine.
00:17:34.000So this could be one reason why they kind of stepped back a little bit, but according to Henry Kissinger, the Chinese gave the Russians a blank check when it came to this conflict right now.
00:17:46.000I'm not really seeing it, but I think it's in their interest for themselves to be like, you know what?
00:17:52.000We're just going to take a step back as you two guys beat each other up, and we're going to rise as a potential superpower, or try to rise as a potential superpower.
00:18:01.000Never interrupt your enemies when they're destroying each other.
00:18:04.000Yes, and there's been a lot of historical tensions between Russia and China.
00:18:08.000They have started to work closer together, especially with the United States becoming more aggressive against both of them.
00:18:15.000They started to share a lot of military secrets.
00:18:17.000They started to build a lot of military infrastructure together.
00:18:21.000But historically, they've been at odds, even when it comes to specific territory that they were threatening each other with just a few decades ago.
00:18:30.000The Intercept report that I saw earlier, I think Michael Tracy was tweeting about it.
00:18:35.000I mean, that was just a kick in the balls.
00:19:28.000Give it a week, two weeks, a month before they're like, oh yeah, we actually ordered that.
00:19:31.000Or at first they're going to say, we gave them the information on where Dugan would be, but we didn't know that would happen.
00:19:37.000And then a month later it's going to be like, yeah, it was us.
00:19:38.000So basically what the United States is doing is handing someone a gun and saying, we're going to point it exactly where you're going to kill this opponent.
00:19:46.000And the only thing that they're not doing is pulling the trigger.
00:20:30.000At what point does everyone figure out that just, you know, when do we eliminate the middleman and just go direct at each other?
00:20:36.000I mean, that's what I'm saying, you know, look, if Joe Biden wants my respect, he'll come out and be like, my fellow Americans, of course we're at war with Russia.
00:20:56.000But these, you know, I think what you get from Twitter and from the media is you can really see these like psychotic fascist journalists will say whatever to keep regular people trapped in the dark.
00:21:09.000They'll call you fake news, they'll lie, they'll push conspiracy theories and then claim it's you doing that.
00:21:15.000Projection is the only thing they have and the best part is they accuse everyone else of projecting when it's quite literally them projecting.
00:21:21.000They're the fascists supporting the machine and supporting the war.
00:21:23.000Now we're facing the prospect of getting hit by a nuke.
00:21:26.000So I guess, you know, for you guys, have you guys bought your potassium iodide yet?
00:21:31.000I had mine many years ago as I was warning about this on my YouTube channel saying, hey, we're headed towards a conflict with Russia.
00:21:37.000Like 10 years ago, I was making videos about this.
00:21:40.000I was like, geopolitically, everything's aligning, everything's shaping up.
00:21:42.000As of course, this is not the first proxy war that happened between the East and the West.
00:21:46.000We look at Syria, we look at Libya, we look at Afghanistan in the 1980s.
00:21:51.000The United States and the Russians have always been at odds with each other, always financing the enemy of the enemy, and this is nothing new, but now I think we have really escalated it to a dangerous situation that implicates everyone in it, including everyone that's not even fighting.
00:22:08.000Innocent human beings are being affected by this in more ways than one, not just financially.
00:23:28.000They're so obfuscated in the Balkans, in like, obviously Serbia, Kosovo, in the Clinton years.
00:23:37.000I remember hearing about Serbia and Kosovo and Bosnia, like there was just bombs going off.
00:23:41.000I never knew what was what, who was who.
00:23:43.000I just knew that we were involved in all this death.
00:23:47.000Yeah, I think without conflict and places to blow up bombs with some sort of reason, whether it's fake or real, then the military-industrial complex will cease to function.
00:23:57.000Yes, sometimes I wonder if all this money being sent to Ukraine is kind of like to help replace the lost revenue from leaving Afghanistan in the Middle East.
00:24:05.000It's like a hundred billion dollars on the books that have been sent over there in the middle of an economic recession.
00:24:10.000They've sent a hundred billion dollars to some country that we're not even allies with.
00:27:17.000This, I think, is a way to scare Americans into paying their taxes and not buying guns.
00:27:22.000I think they're going to make Hunter a poster boy for tax evasion and illegal gun handling.
00:27:28.000They're going to give him a slap on the wrist, but enough that's like, People are super afraid, they don't want to cross the government because the government is looking out for tax and gun crimes.
00:27:36.000That is interesting because of all the things they could have got him on, to choose those things.
00:27:42.000I mean, those are relatively minor crimes compared to everything that he's done with human trafficking, crack, all that, the deals with China.
00:30:10.000So people are saying there's a small possibility here.
00:30:12.000But again, the system has a way of greasing the wheels here.
00:30:15.000Joe Biden is an extremely dirty human being that will use every illicit means to, of course, protect his inner circle.
00:30:23.000And I could see a lot of shadowy things happening behind the scenes, putting pressure on this prosecutor being like, this is my son, you don't do this.
00:30:31.000And then the prosecutor saying, OK, sure.
00:30:35.000I think there's a theory out there that I think is plausible of Hunter deliberately releasing a lot of this stuff in order to get back at his dad for potential crimes that Hunter committed against the president.
00:31:20.000I could see, like, in 15 or 20 years after Joe Biden's passed away, that Hunter is, like, He does a tell-all story where he's like, he was abusive.
00:32:36.000You can blame a lot on Putin, but why are we involved?
00:32:39.000So, if you want to talk to people and you want to convince them to pay attention to this, you can be like, hey, you know your gas is going up because of this, and that means you can't pay your rent, you're not gonna be able to buy food, it means food costs are gonna go up, labor costs are gonna go up, and you can thank Joe Biden.
00:32:50.000Well, he's burning through our strategic oil reserves right now, too.
00:33:38.000Even if there's a gray reset, we still need oil.
00:33:41.000If they cut off the oil, I think, like, billions will die.
00:33:44.000Like, within the first few days of oil getting cut off, 60 million, I think.
00:33:47.000Are the estimates between 20 and 60 million?
00:33:49.000Dude, I'm looking at this technology where a guy puts oil in his, like, deoxygenated pressure chamber, or puts plastic, rather, in his deoxygenated pressure chamber, and then turns it back into oil, and then can reuse the oil.
00:33:59.000Well, what kind of plastic, and is the video fake?
00:34:02.000It was like some Japanese guy from, like, six or seven years ago, and it was on a small scale.
00:34:30.000Mass genocide's called, like cutting off fossil fuels abruptly and outright will just kill tens of millions instantly and then within a few days.
00:34:38.000Well, they're already doing it with famine, you know.
00:34:41.000But give it a few years and then there's going to be famines, power shortages, and you're going to see, look, take a look at the population growth charts and then right around the advent of fossil fuels, it just goes straight up.
00:34:52.000It goes from, like, a consistent 500 million people in the world throughout history, and then right before the turn of the century, it just jumps to the billions, and then it keeps climbing exponentially.
00:35:01.000And it's because of this massive, energy-rich product.
00:35:06.000If you cut that off, it's gonna go, whoosh, right back down.
00:35:09.000Here's the video, it's called New Inventions Machine Reverts Plastic Back to Oil.
00:35:13.000we get for this machine keeps trying this is called machine reverts plastic
00:35:17.000back to oil it's new inventions machine reverts plastic back to oil it's from
00:35:20.000about 11 years ago and the name that the inventor is Akinori Ito he was the CEO
00:35:26.000of blessed.co.ltd at the time The website now, that link is no longer working.
00:35:32.000I don't know what the status of this technology is right now.
00:35:33.000But I mean, if one guy and a small company can make this on a small scale, where's our industrial plastic recycling?
00:36:02.000And it came out of the ground at one time the same way.
00:36:04.000We are taking plastic and we are converting it using a process called pyrolysis where we're converting it into a fuel So we know that Bill Gates has people who monitor conversations about him.
00:36:19.000So, you know, of course, when the show starts, they tell him, uh, Mr. Gates, Tim Kest, Ira Relezon, well, turn it on the TV.
00:36:24.000And now he's watching and he sees this clip and he goes, what?
00:36:27.000And then he's like slamming the table and he's going to call and he's like, shut him down.
00:36:56.000The pain of being sucked down to a planet.
00:36:59.000The pain, the physical pain that we've become desensitized to makes people hate themselves.
00:37:03.000To answer your question, I think there's a combination of Satanists, demons, people with mental health issues, but in a more simple way, throughout human history, there has always been someone trying to conquer the world.
00:37:20.000That's not something that's out of the ordinary.
00:37:22.000It is the norm whether it's Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Caesar, whoever it may be, they become so empowered by other individuals that that power corrupts them.
00:37:33.000And these individuals have reached such power, such wealth, that they are going along with what Hitler did, with what Mao did, with what Stalin did.
00:37:43.000Trying to conquer and control human life for their own personal benefit.
00:37:46.000Sociopathic demons is one easy way to describe them.
00:37:50.000Another way to describe them is, of course, just saying throughout human history there have always been these types of people that challenge us and try to conquer everything.
00:38:54.000I do think it's a spiritual battle that you alluded to.
00:38:57.000If we were created by God, we're made in His image, and there is a Satan, you have to assume that he hates the image of God.
00:39:06.000He despises us, and I think if those forces are at work in the world, There's always going to be those people who rise up and who kind of just naturally hate God's image, you know, on the earth.
00:39:21.000And so it's probably kind of his oldest time, like you said.
00:39:24.000It just takes different iterations, you know, throughout history.
00:39:28.000There's always some jerk taking a dump in the punch bowl.
00:39:32.000It's gotta be like... And then that's history.
00:39:35.000Like what Zelensky was saying, we need to preemptively strike so that they don't attack us.
00:39:40.000Like what the Romans did, we need to conquer everyone around us so that we don't get attacked.
00:39:43.000Because if you actually are attacked and your city's sacked, like Rome, happened to Rome in the early days, there's like, took 200 years to recover from that.
00:39:50.000Like it can annihilate a civilization if you're attacked.
00:39:52.000So there's this idea of like, I need to conquer the earth so that the earth doesn't conquer me.
00:40:09.00080-90% of your day was just wake up, work, otherwise you don't have food, winter is coming, are you ready?
00:40:15.000Now we've got heating, refrigeration, we can have strawberries in the dead of winter, we can have avocados, fresh, tableside guacamole prepared to order in January.
00:40:29.000So it's just, we just, we, you know, they talk about, like, we gotta end global poverty and blah blah blah, and I'm like, I get it, but there's no such thing as ending poverty.
00:40:39.000Because even the poorest people in the world have access to technologies that were unthinkable a hundred years ago.
00:40:45.000Not that they have consistent access to it, but even in the United States, the poorest person in the U.S.
00:40:50.000can get clean drinking water very, very easily.
00:40:53.000You walk into a McDonald's and you're like, water.
00:40:56.000Try doing that in some other parts of the world where there's no water and they're desperate.
00:41:00.000Well, I don't think that also explains it, because throughout human history, when there was no drinking water, tribes used to kill other tribes.
00:41:08.000Whether it was Native Americans, whether it was Europeans, there was always someone trying to kill someone else for their resources, for their clean water, for their food, and for their energy and ability to survive as well.
00:41:20.000This has been happening for a very very long time now it's it only gets a lot more sophisticated it only gets a lot more complicated because of these technological advancements that allow people to hide behind the scenes and to impose their will in a fifth generational warfare way where people don't even realize that they're being depopulated that they're being chemically attacked that they're being castrated that they're being taught and manipulated in a way that they become self
00:41:47.000and destroy themselves as a would-be dictator is literally ...
00:41:51.000pulling the strings and calling the shots without anyone even ...
00:41:54.000knowing their name I think that's a more likely scenario ...
00:41:58.000with what we're dealing with right now then previously in ...
00:42:01.000archaic times where you would stab someone and you go into ...
00:42:04.000Now the battle, I think, is in our minds and I think that battle is expanding in a way that there's no denying that it exists, especially with the dehumanization that we have seen within the last few years.
00:42:15.000Yeah, I was thinking about the ballistics and how they've changed war, like being able to not have to look your enemy in the eye when you kill them.
00:42:21.000But then I'm thinking about the Romans and how they basically genocided the Gauls.
00:42:25.000They went through all of France and just millions of people were slaughtered at the hands of the Romans.
00:42:29.000And I think it gets to the point where the killers enjoy killing.
00:42:32.000Like they learned to dehumanize these things that they're attacking, and they enjoy the abusive behavior.
00:42:38.000Like it's a powerful rush you gain from it.
00:42:41.000You get food and money and jewels and women after you make the kill.
00:42:47.000And when it becomes easy for them, and they think about, you know, these people have ideas I don't like, hey, it's just that much easier.
00:42:57.000They don't even think of us as people, too.
00:42:58.000It's so crazy how the dehumanization can happen.
00:43:01.000Call them savage or whatever you want to call them.
00:43:03.000Yeah, I'm telling you, they treat us like chickens.
00:43:06.000Look, I was saying this earlier today on my other show.
00:43:09.000The government deeply cares about you.
00:43:11.000Your government cares about you, they care about your well-being, and they want you to be healthy and happy insofar as you can provide labor for them.
00:43:21.000Everything else—your love, your life, your faith, your dreams—completely meaningless.
00:43:28.000And if you get in the way of their labor machine, you are expendable.
00:43:32.000So they care about you as much as I care about, say, chickens.
00:43:36.000Like I don't want harm to befall them, but if I have to get rid of a cocky rooster,
00:43:41.000he's going out to cock town or he's getting chopped up for lunch.
00:43:44.000They give me eggs, I don't care what else they do in the meantime.
00:43:47.000But if they start doing things I don't like, then you go in and you deal with them.
00:44:23.000But, for human beings, When we do shows like this, the people who are currently holding the keys to the chicken coop in which we are all imprisoned, they have to be careful because people are smart enough to break free from that.
00:44:33.000And that means you ain't getting any eggs anymore.
00:44:36.000That's why we have politics, because people are too smart, so we need a mind control system to utilize their intelligence without allowing them to seize control.
00:44:45.000And that's possibly why we've seen such a ramp-up with what's happening globally, and the Great Reset and all this war, is because of the information age.
00:44:53.000This is the advent of the printing press, with the internet.
00:44:58.000We now have all this access to information without gatekeepers, and so it does seem like the powers that be are very violently reacting to that.
00:45:09.000But to add to your point, Ian, talking about politics, I think politics is just there to placate the population.
00:45:14.000I think it's there to just convince people that they actually have a say in In things when they actually don't it's it's like a fisher price toy that you give to a child that you just distract them with thinking that they're actually cooking a meal when they're actually not I think that our political system is run the same exact way and there's powerful people behind the scenes calling the shots getting whatever they want convincing you brainwashing you and screwing you over every single day and they're doing it more than ever
00:45:39.000And there was even a mainline study that we talked about a couple years ago, I think on this show specifically, talking about how our form of government is a joke.
00:46:02.000They said the United States is not a democracy.
00:46:03.000It's a plutonomy where the wealthiest control the system.
00:46:06.000Yeah, a great example of that is superdelegates.
00:46:09.000The Democratic Party, no matter who votes for what, when you go to the polls, at the very end, the superdelegates are going to come and be like, actually, we're going to make Joe Biden the nominee.
00:46:17.000Like, you're not voting for the nominee.
00:46:19.000You're voting for people that you hope will nominate the person you want them to vote for.
00:47:15.000Plutonomy is a term that refers to the science of the production of distribution of wealth.
00:47:19.000In modern times, Citigroup analysts, beginning with A.J.
00:47:21.000Kapoor in 2005, have used the term to describe an economy in which the rich are the driving forces and main beneficiaries of economic growth.
00:47:29.000Others, including Noam Chomsky, have used the term to refer to a nation or economy in which wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few.
00:47:36.000And there you go, that's where you are.
00:47:39.000And then they can use that for access, for lobbying, for manipulation, for media control.
00:47:44.000And then they create little underlings who go on Twitter and lie to you, and know they lied to you, and that's it.
00:47:53.000I was thinking about this, when they, I saw some, I can't remember what I was watching, but they were like, Republicans are trying to bring about evil into this country or whatever.
00:48:01.000And then I thought about that, I'm like, well, they know that's not serious.
00:48:04.000Like these people know that they're the ones who are lying because there's no way you can believe every single lie
00:48:10.000from the mainstream media unless, you know, like there's no way you can keep saying this
00:48:15.000and believe these lies unless there's something wrong with you or you're just pushing the lies.
00:48:20.000And so what I think is they view freedom and liberty as chaos and evil.
00:48:27.000Whereas we view authoritarianism and manipulation evil.
00:48:31.000So to them, they're like, these people are evil.
00:48:33.000They want just chaos, people doing everything, and then it all burns down and climate change.
00:48:39.000I picture them like the guy in the basement that paints the little, you know, figures.
00:48:43.000Nothing wrong with that, but like, you know, that has the scene set up and everything just so, and everything posed, maybe like a little train set or something like that.
00:48:52.000And, you know, imagine if those figures were about to, you know, have agency or free will, and it's just, the guy loses his mind.
00:48:59.000It's kind of, they're people tinkering with a train set in their basement.
00:49:21.000Well, the really great and really bad thing about our current dichotomy is that in this larger war, people are literally killing and taking themselves out.
00:49:32.000It's a really bad thing because it's horrible to see and you try to prevent it, but a lot of times it's very difficult to do so.
00:49:38.000On another aspect, it's a good thing because at the same time it could be stopped just by information, just by knowledge, just by people being able to talk to each other in a transparent, accountable, full, honest, real, truthful way.
00:49:50.000And the internet provides us a small opportunity to do that, but it's being limited every single day because of that particular reason.
00:49:57.000This is why this move by Twitter, again, It's going to be interesting to see how it plays out, but I think it provides a huge potential that could really upend and shift things.
00:50:09.000I'm skeptical, but I do see it as something that could change the world for the better as people realize, hey, maybe I shouldn't be hurting myself.
00:50:16.000Maybe I shouldn't be treating myself bad.
00:50:20.000Maybe I shouldn't just listen and do everything that they tell me to do and I keep getting screwed over by it.
00:50:24.000And I think the more people have those conversations and actually open themselves up to fixing themselves, they won't be killing themselves and blowing themselves up, figuratively, mentally speaking.
00:50:34.000Yeah, drug addiction, like, and I'm talking about high fructose corn syrup, sugars as well, types of drugs like that, something the government can't really I can kind of control it by banning certain substances, but the whole, like, obesity epidemic, because like you were saying earlier, the government wants workers, they want chickens that just do their chicken thing and lay the eggs, but then why are they letting people get obese?
00:50:54.000I don't think that, I think it's just, it's bigger than gut, like, economy is, is, the market is stronger than our government.
00:51:01.000I mean, we have very few food companies controlling most of the food supply chain now, and they're very well connected in government.
00:51:08.000And I think they have a lot of power, you know, over what goes in our food, over what goes on our nutrition labels.
00:51:17.000And so I think a lot of our diet, our American diet, is dictated by the lobbyists for these companies in Washington.
00:51:25.000I want to jump to this story we got from Timcast.com.
00:51:27.000Biden pardons federal convictions for low-level marijuana possession.
00:51:31.000Today, we begin to right these wrongs, Biden said.
00:51:35.000The pardon also applies to lawful permanent residents who have been charged with simple possession, as well as individuals who have been charged but not yet stood trial.
00:51:43.000Quote, as I've said before, no one should be in jail just for using or possessing marijuana.
00:51:48.000Today, I'm taking steps to end our failed approach.
00:52:44.000I just saw a meme earlier today about Kamala Harris looking through the blinds very sadly as Joe Biden releases all the people she was so carefully putting in jail for marijuana possession.
00:53:18.000The war on drugs is a farce that just abuses people that have substance abuse problems that are never dealt with and only made worse and people are made harder criminals and bigger criminals just by going into our penitentiary system.
00:53:58.000Yeah, he's saying that he's calling on the Attorney General to initiate a process of reviewing how marijuana is scheduled under federal law because it's considered more serious than fentanyl, which is just insane.
00:54:31.000Yeah, I think it would have potentially split his base and been harmful to him politically.
00:54:36.000He might not have won if he didn't do it.
00:54:38.000I don't think it would have been harmful to him at all.
00:54:40.000I think there would have been some people who would have been like, I don't think he's right to do, but there's no way I'm voting for Biden.
00:56:24.000So someone could fact check this and that only 92 people were sentenced for marijuana possession in the federal system in 2017.
00:56:31.000out of nearly 20,000 drug convictions. So, um, yeah, it's like if Joe Biden came out and was
00:56:37.000like, all those, you know, children who are negatively impacted by the alien invasion
00:56:41.000will receive a million dollars from the government. You're like, okay, that's zero. It's like, Hey,
00:56:44.000Hey, we're helping kids. Right. Kept that promise because people will hear this. This is brilliant.
00:56:50.000Man, you know, in terms of manipulating people, this is just so good.
00:56:56.000Announcing that you're going to be partying a tiny, tiny group of people, but then saying there are thousands of people who were previously convicted.
00:57:03.000Convincing people that you actually did a thing when there's no one that's, for the most part, being affected.
00:57:08.000Now look, to those 92 people in 2017 or whatever, I'm sure there was 100 in 2018, 19, 20, 21, 22.
00:57:14.000So we're looking at maybe, you know, several hundred people.
00:57:17.000I'm sure their lives will be improved by this.
00:57:20.000But he's not doing what I suggested Trump do, which was basically pardon anybody for any crime relating to any non-violent crime who didn't plead down.
00:57:29.000So that means if they had like large possession or trafficking, I don't care.
00:57:32.000Yeah, trafficking for reference is when you have 25 kilograms or more or 300 or more plants of marijuana.
00:57:40.000Everybody who's been convicted for that If they didn't plead down from a violent offense, they should have to go through a mandatory licensing process and then be released.
00:58:10.000Let people be, and if they're not hurting anyone, if they're just deciding to smoke something or put something in their body, it's their choice and their decision.
00:58:16.000Even though they should be informed, though, that there are extremely negative consequences that we're not being told when it comes to marijuana, and marijuana is becoming more potent, is becoming more dangerous, and does have negative effects on some human beings.
00:58:28.000So people need to understand, there's dangers in doing this, but at the same time, the government coming in and throwing you in jail for doing this is not going to solve the problem.
00:58:36.000I had some old hippies talking to me about how pot today is nothing like it was in the 70s.
00:58:44.000And they were like, yeah, so you'd smoke.
00:58:45.000And it was like, you know, now it's just like, boom, it's very powerful stuff.
00:58:50.000So maybe, you know, we gotta be careful about all drugs, but, you know, look, man, my attitude is, if you wanna go into your closet and, you know, smoke, inject, I don't know, whatever, as long as you're not hurting other people, I actually think that regulation is the best way towards helping people, ending the violence.
00:59:11.000By pushing it into the black market, you only create a space for this.
00:59:14.000So the appropriate thing to do, in my opinion, is legalize with restrictions.
00:59:18.000If people are addicted to opiates, give them a space where you can go and help them and make sure they don't die from it.
00:59:47.000And, you know, mildly, I think physically, definitely psychologically addictive and giving it to kids is messed up.
00:59:53.000I used to know kids in high school that I never smoked until I was 23.
00:59:55.000But like in high school, they were just slow and dull and like bored with school and like, Maybe they were slow and dull and bored of school anyway, but they would be more slow and more dull when they would come into work smelling like pot and like, you know, weren't mean or anything.
01:00:12.000It should be just like alcohol, you know, and, and, you know, marijuana does have some medicinal properties, but at the same time, there's also other forms of marijuana that will absolutely knock you on your butt and have very severe negative consequences, especially if your child, as it rewires your brain and, and Predominantly, it does make a lot of people lazy.
01:00:29.000Some people, it actually makes them energized.
01:00:31.000Some people, it actually gives them inspiration.
01:00:39.000When I went to Colorado and I partook for the first time, I remember having this thought like, holy cow, this is kind of dangerous for me because I I, right now, I feel like I would be completely happy never accomplishing anything ever again.
01:02:24.000Well, and we're almost seeing that a little bit in the States, too, with insurance companies that will, you know, they won't cover your surgery or your treatment, but they will cover, you know, your, what do you call it, your death with dignity.
01:02:38.000You know, we'll give you painkillers until you die.
01:04:33.000So, you gotta make sure that whatever's giving you that dopamine hit, it's a positive thing with the future.
01:04:39.000I think South Park said it well when it's like, they're talking to the kids about their future selves, like they hired this company that sends in fake versions of them from the future who are like, hey guys, I started smoking weed and then I became a loser.
01:04:51.000And then finally at the end, Randy's like, son, you know, there's nothing really bad about smoking pot other than it makes you okay with being bored.
01:04:59.000And then when you're older, you'll find that you're not good at anything.
01:05:02.000Plus, the government ships in all the drugs they usually have through the CIA, especially as we found out through the Iran-Contra scandal, and I could keep going, but there's also some other breaking news happening right now.
01:05:11.000I don't know if you guys are seeing this from the Associated Press.
01:05:14.000They're talking about how Biden, at a fundraiser in New York, talked about how Putin is, quote, not joking about tactical nuclear weapons.
01:05:21.000Armageddon risk at highest level since Cuban Missile Crisis.
01:05:24.000So these are words from the President of the United States, specifically talking about the dangers that all of us face because of his reckless foreign policy that has brought us to what he describes himself as Armageddon, which is crazy.
01:05:36.000So this is actually breaking right now.
01:06:08.000I think that fear of nuclear war benefits the military-industrial complex.
01:06:12.000So if Biden is functioning as a mouthpiece for that, or if he's just completely an NPC, just afraid of normal everyday stimuli that the more intelligent, evolved people can kind of see around and understand the basics of, I don't know, the White House will walk this back tomorrow.
01:06:32.000I mean, you know Peter Doocy or whoever is going to be in the president, you know, like, are we headed towards Armageddon, Karine Jean-Pierre?
01:06:39.000And she's going to be like, blah blah blah, and she's going to flip through her notebook.
01:06:41.000And then she's going to say something that's like, well, you know, Armageddon, that's a word, and words have meanings.
01:06:48.000And when a meaning is brought up, people have to wonder, why?
01:06:51.000Cause Armageddon, that's an interesting thing to say.
01:06:54.000And then they're like, okay, I don't, I don't, what?
01:06:56.000And she'll be like, I answered your question.
01:07:00.000She'll be like, we, uh, we, we very much, uh, does that, uh, a lot.
01:07:05.000We believe in the president, Buttigieg.
01:07:07.000The president's been very clear and he's been very clear from the beginning about what we've said, about what we believe and what we want to do and Armageddon, you know.
01:07:15.000But you're missing the snoot when she does it.
01:08:11.000I feel like that's actually a fair observation, because he does speak very quickly and very directly.
01:08:15.000And I don't think that speaking quickly is a marker that you're telling the truth, because we've known a lot of people who can really spin really fast.
01:08:31.000Releasing my past secrets on YouTube videos.
01:08:34.000It was humiliating, but I've got like a hundred of them where I'm just talking about my past and my secrets and all of a sudden I didn't, they didn't pop into my head in the middle of conversations.
01:08:41.000I didn't have to remember or think like, was I lying or was I, am I hiding something here?
01:08:44.000You can just kind of flow with whatever.
01:08:48.000I want you to make me a promise that if a nuclear strike is imminent where we live and there is no escape, I want you to stand atop the van, driving full speed, holding American flag, while blasting It's the End of the World As We Know It by R.E.M.
01:09:04.000Well, I mean, for this scenario, yeah.
01:09:07.000While we hide in the bunker with our iodine pills.
01:09:11.000No, I'm saying, I don't want Ian to die in a blaze of glory unless there's no other choice, but then it would just be the greatest ending, you know, to any story ever.
01:09:18.000Oh yeah, when Power 108 turned into 107.9, the end, they played that song for 24 hours.
01:09:27.000If you're from Northeast Ohio in the 80s, you remember that night.
01:09:31.000I remember, because I'm from Chicago, Q101 changed.
01:09:35.000It was like a rock station, and it turned into like talk radio or something.
01:09:38.000And then it just flopped miserably, so they changed it back.
01:09:40.000But my favorite thing about Q101 is that I'm sure even today, I don't know, I haven't been to Chicago in a while, I'm sure they're still just playing Stunt Double Pilots.
01:09:47.000Like, they never stopped playing 1990s music.
01:11:45.000I'm like, it's a 30 year old movie and young kids are, I'm like, everyone in there is a young person.
01:11:51.000I couldn't imagine when I was a kid walking into the mall and there was a store that didn't pretend to be a retro store selling everything from the 60s.
01:12:02.000Well, I think there's nothing, you talk about cultural stagnation, there's like nothing really new coming out anymore.
01:12:10.000You know, movies, TV, music, it's all rehashes.
01:12:28.000You know, it's been about, it's been a couple months now, and man, the stories are just compelling, they're funny, they make you laugh, make you cry.
01:13:08.000I don't want to spoil anything for anybody.
01:13:10.000I highly recommend going to TimCast.com and checking out the Cast Castle series, because it is new, and it's hot.
01:13:16.000So people only watch what they already like, they don't want to see anything new, so that's why The Office just keeps getting replayed over and over again.
01:13:24.000It used to be that there was a finite amount of space, and these networks were trying to be fresh by making new things, but now it doesn't matter anymore.
01:13:31.000Look, I just watched Breaking Bad for the first time a couple weeks ago.
01:13:34.000And now I'm about to finish Better Call Saul, which, you know, to be fair, Better Call Saul did just finish.
01:14:54.000In the first season, Tina Fey, she's playing Liz Lemon, says that she tells her friends she voted for Obama, but she actually voted for McCain.
01:15:02.000Imagine a modern SNL show where the main character says, I tell everybody I voted for Hillary, but I actually voted for Trump twice.
01:15:28.000I can't spoil anything, but we do have, we have a special guest coming out next week and we're working on one of the most hilariously offensive shows we'll ever do.
01:15:38.000Yeah, I wrote a scene for it last night.
01:15:40.000And I can't say too much, but it's in line with what Luke was talking about, Diversity Day.
01:15:44.000So it has to do with the company and how all the employees have to go through training, and it'll be really, really fun.
01:16:14.000Somebody who's got experience having done shows like this before can come in and be like, A, B, C, D is what you're missing, and then we're good to go.
01:16:20.000You know, consultant or something like that.
01:16:23.000But I'm really excited for... Currently there's one being filmed today, like this week, which will come out Tuesday.
01:16:31.000But what's going to be filmed next week is probably going to... I imagine everybody who likes our show is going to absolutely love what we do.
01:16:40.000And then there's going to be a bunch of videos posted by a bunch of leftist organizations who are going to be like, Yeah, but it'll be so good that it's indisputable.
01:17:14.000We have this discussing film, it's like a first look at Shaggy, Daphne, and Fred, voiced by Sam Richardson, Constance Wu, and Glenn Howerton, in HBO Max's adult animated Velma series.
01:17:26.000I just want to point out the most offensive thing here is that Shaggy, NORVILLE!
01:17:54.000Okay, look, I honestly don't care, but I have a point to be made.
01:17:58.000If they were going to choose any character to be black, I find it funny that they chose the stoner munchies guy who is considered a coward.
01:18:41.000Like, not like fat fat, but you know, they made her like... Chubby with a little bit of fupa.
01:18:46.000Yeah, a little fupa and chubby and just real cringe.
01:18:49.000And the trailer for this is her basically saying that you can never change... She's doing a joke where she's like, you can never change things and it's like everything always has to stay the same.
01:19:01.000And then she says something like, well, at least the character is still white.
01:19:04.000And then it reveals that Velma is now black or whatever.
01:19:38.000No, I think there's some 80-year-old white executive who typed in, you know, Scooby-Doo into an AI script writer and then it just spat out some garbage and then went, run with it!
01:20:22.000It was the same story every single time.
01:20:24.000We get it, some dude's trying to lower property values so he pretends to be Frankenstein.
01:20:28.000Them making a new show that's aimed at adults using these characters and then race swapping them is just like, we are desperate, we don't know what we're doing, we're gonna try and do Ghostbusters 2016 all over again.
01:22:08.000It is funny Shaggy going Super Saiyan.
01:22:11.000But this kind of takes away from that, because I don't know who this again Norville guy is, and I don't know why they're taking away from... Shaggy's an iconic character.
01:22:29.000He's going to be a low IQ idiot who's going to be making a bunch of mistakes.
01:22:32.000He's going to be the dope, and he's going to be the loser, just like every guy who looks like him is portrayed on television.
01:22:38.000How amazing would it be if Fred is no longer the leader, Norville is, and every time something bad happens, Fred's like, I'm sorry guys, that was my fault.
01:23:53.000If they can overcome the poor theme here, and the writing's actually decent, it looks like they've got... I mean, Mindy Kaling, I think she's a fantastic actor.
01:24:02.000So maybe she can pull... Like, this was a little... The writing was kind of bad.
01:25:41.000So, basically, like, Santa's doing his rounds, and he's, like, half-glazed over, just like, whatever.
01:25:46.000And then he stumbles upon an active heist on Christmas, and then he's like, I don't want any trouble, and then he basically uses his Santa powers to take on a bunch of terrorists in a big house.
01:26:35.000It is hard to come up with new ideas because Futurama did the Robo Santa trying to kill everybody, which is not the same thing.
01:26:41.000And there's another movie, I forget what it's called, something like the 70s or whatever, where there's a guy just like Santa going around killing people.
01:26:48.000But this is literally Santa Claus himself inadvertently stumbling upon a Die Hard-style kidnapping heist because this rich family's got a vault full of money or whatever.
01:27:24.000I think when I write music, I basically take pieces from a bunch of different songs I've heard in the past and then put them all together into a new song where you don't know that those pieces, where they're from.
01:27:34.000So it's, I'm definitely, we're standing on the shoulders of giants.
01:28:22.000Man, it really is crazy how they just like...
01:28:25.000Rehash old things non-stop over and over and over again, like we're on Fast and the Furious 10, you know?
01:28:31.000They've got to use new tech, new technology.
01:28:33.000I think if you want to make new art, you've got to integrate like modern tech.
01:28:36.000Did you notice when cell phones appeared, it took them like six years before they started making cell phones in movies because it was so cool to have a hero that didn't have access to the outside world, couldn't resolve, he didn't know what was going on.
01:28:45.000That's the big part of movies is you don't know.
01:28:47.000So as soon as cell phones are invented, it like erases the drama of so many movies.
01:28:51.000Not only that, but you'll notice in modern movies, they'll have the cell phone to their ear, and then someone will say something like, I am coming for your family.
01:28:58.000And then you hear a click and a doot doot doot doot doot.
01:29:00.000And I'm like, that doesn't happen on cell phones.
01:29:03.000That was like, and the crazy thing is, do young people even understand that?
01:29:07.000There was a meme that is probably not real, but it's funny, where some guy was holding up a floppy disk.
01:29:13.000And he was like, kid in my school just said, why did you 3D print the save icon?
01:29:42.000I don't know, I mean... Instant gratification all the time.
01:29:46.000My entire life we've had TV is ubiquitous.
01:29:51.000My parents were saying that it was like when they were younger, they didn't have TVs in their apartments because they were expensive and they didn't care that much.
01:29:56.000You know, now it's like flat screen TVs are in every room because they're dirt cheap.
01:30:00.000Maybe that's because they want to spy on us though.
01:30:15.000I think we went on a search for ones that didn't, and we were going around the specific stores, and there was like one left that I was able to finally grab it and buy myself.
01:30:28.000There's a chart going around the internet that Tracks the cost of everything going back to the 50s and how prices have rised for food, healthcare, cars, houses, literally everything.
01:31:54.000I think a lot of what makes our satire seem prophetic sometimes is I think it's just the fact that there's nothing complicated about it.
01:32:04.000I think we know the left better than they know themselves a lot of times.
01:32:08.000If you know someone's worldview, and then you also combine that with knowledge of human nature, if you have a solid, truthful worldview, it's not hard to predict what people are going to do and what people are going to say.
01:32:19.000That and the Babylon Bee has a vat full of a fluid with three precogs floating in it, and then wooden balls carve out, you know, the future, and then they say, hey, that's funny, let's write that up.
01:32:29.000It's actually a seeing stone, but yeah, pretty close.
01:32:32.000The Babylon Bee staff put on robes, and they all stand in a big circle holding hands, and then the crystal lights up, and they can see the future.
01:33:38.000I just rewatched the one where they're hunting down the roaches, this humanoid monster thing, but they've got like AR brain chips, they're like augmented in the neural net, and so they see the roaches, they kill them, and then one guy gets like knocked out of the net by this thing, and he realizes that they're actual humans, that they've been told are roaches because they have a genetic deficiency, and it's this weird like uh story of like genocide and and being manipulated by
01:34:03.000machines you know klaus schwab watched that episode and was like oh yeah that was
01:34:08.000good i can't believe i did not think of that so do you think that literally do you think that you
01:34:12.000guys are giving ideas to the war machine gosh dang i hope not
01:34:23.000You know, and I, it's, you're really just kind of, you're watching the course that they're
01:34:35.000on and you're just extrapolating it, you know.
01:34:38.000All right, we're going to go to super chat.
01:34:40.000If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, and become a member at TimCast.com.
01:34:47.000We're going to have that uncensored members-only show coming up at about 11 p.m.
01:34:53.000We got Camilla Mamani who says, Yo Tim, I heard in my Argentinian news about undersea cables that Russia could destroy them for breaking communication or tapping them.
01:35:16.000If you're worried about the pipelines getting hit, they probably won't destroy them.
01:35:20.000What you need to understand about communications is that in a time of war and conflict, people want access to the information, not to silence it.
01:36:04.000Grim Vale says, do you have any plans to ever do written fiction content on your culture platforms?
01:36:09.000Trade publishing is ultra-woke and there aren't many platforms where writers can just write good stories without the gender stuff forced in.
01:36:16.000Yeah, we were thinking about doing manga or something, graphic novels, in the weekly release style, but it's a very, very, very difficult thing to do.
01:36:24.000I don't know if we would ever do, like, fiction books or anything like that.
01:36:28.000Salem Publishing, we published a novel through Salem, a fantasy novel, and got no pushback on any of the content from them at all.
01:36:46.000But they're, I mean, they're the only one I know of, as far as publishing houses go, they're the only one I know of that will really just let you write anything.
01:36:53.000Go anywhere else, you're going to have very strict parameters for what you can have in there, what you can't have in there, all the woke stuff.
01:37:02.000So yeah, the publishing business is kind of a mess right now.
01:37:05.000All right, Heron Gaming News says, did you hear Chicago held Slipknot at gunpoint?
01:37:10.000Do you mean that Slipknot was held at gunpoint in Chicago?
01:37:14.000Or the band Chicago had a beef with the band Slipknot, and they held them at gunpoint?
01:37:17.000I know, because that's what it sounds like at first, and I'm like, I don't know if that would be a thing.
01:38:47.000I'd actually be more inclined to believe they have underground bunkers ready to go for themselves than anyone else.
01:38:52.000Like power lines underground, connecting deep underground.
01:38:54.000Faraday cage barriers and things like that to keep out the awful... Underground generators and stuff that we don't know exist.
01:39:01.000Yeah, I think water is probably better, right?
01:39:03.000Like, water is a better protection against radiation.
01:39:08.000So like, you could do a Faraday cage, and then you can do an aquarium, and then you can seal your electronics in plastic and then put them in the water.
01:39:18.000There was a story I read about a scuba diver that got sucked into an intake valve at a nuclear plant and was swimming around in the reactor.
01:39:23.000And you're fine because the water blocks the radiation.
01:39:47.000I mean, he talks about like getting in, in the pig feces with the pig while he's working and it's better for how it's better for his immune system.
01:39:53.000He was very vocal during the COVID epidemic or pandemic, whatever you want to call it.
01:39:58.000Michelle Grimm says it's official, the end of an age.
01:40:01.000No one has come up with an original movie idea since the 90s, I swear.
01:40:05.000Let's make Speedy into Jose Owens next and make him black.
01:40:31.000Groundhog Day, though, even though it kind of had that original conceit, it was a very traditional story.
01:40:37.000It follows the kind of the hero's journey beat for beat, you know, same thing you see in Star Wars and all that.
01:40:42.000Oh yeah, Peterson was talking about, Jordan Peterson talks about like tropes and how there's only so many stories that can be told, and we tell like, I don't know, 17 stories and just make it up off the top of my head, but like the hero's journey is one.
01:41:31.000And the kid's like, It wasn't worth it!
01:41:33.000And the kid was dying of cancer, and the dad came back just in time to pay for his treatment.
01:41:37.000And then the dad has a heart attack, and then the kid... Like, the dad actually, no, he's got, um... I guess it wouldn't be mesothelioma, but it would be some kind of lung damage from inhaling all of that shredded scratcher particle.
01:41:47.000And then the kid... No, the dad loses.
01:42:13.000He did something noble for noble reasons, but he went about it the wrong way and it ends up doing the opposite of what he... destroys his life, destroys his son.
01:46:25.000You think you're gonna get an epic fight with- with Daredevil, but She-Hulk's just gonna one-shot.
01:46:30.000And then, sure enough, he, like, gets ready, and he, like, pulls out his weapons, and then all of a sudden the ceiling collapses, and then She-Hulk's like, heh heh.
01:46:41.000And I think it was mostly good because I, I'm watching Daredevil and I like, I like, you know, the Daredevil show and the character and everything.
01:48:36.000Rick Barley says, how you all feel about House of the Dragon and Rings of Power?
01:48:40.000I feel the first House of the Dragon shows how to have a diverse cast while remaining faithful.
01:48:46.000I immediately stopped watching it when they time jumped 10 years.
01:48:49.000Because if I'm going to invest in a show, because I want to learn the story of a set of characters, and then you just end that whole story arc and then start a new one, I'm out.
01:49:00.000It's like, I, I, man, it's, it's, it, I feel like I'm watching the wrong show.
01:50:00.000What I want to know is how, what on earth happened between it, because the Rings of Power, one of their main writers, was the writer for Better Carl Saul, one of the main writers.
01:50:11.000Like, what happened between Better Carl Saul and Rings of Power, like, for that, that quality to They talk about it, they've been watching every episode on Pop Culture Crisis, and it looks like they're trying to mimic the way that Tolkien wrote, his flowery language, but they're not writing it like Tolkien, they're just creating like a mockery.
01:50:28.000It comes across like grade school philosophy, just like trying to sound really profound, but it's just silly.
01:50:35.000Yeah, and then people get bored or confused.
01:50:37.000And then they have so many characters that they're, like, showing you a little bit from... These characters, you don't know who they are or care about them because you don't know who they are.
01:50:44.000And then there's just too many characters, too many storylines.
01:50:47.000Kind of like the last season of Game of Thrones.
01:51:13.000Everybody was watching and talking about how awesome it was, and I was like, I don't care.
01:51:16.000And then one day, I think I was on a plane to New Zealand, and it's a long flight, so they had like seven episodes of season four, I think it was, I can't remember.
01:51:25.000And I started watching it, and I was like, this is really good, I need to stop watching it so I can start from the beginning.
01:51:29.000And then I binge-watched from season one, and then, man, did that show fall off a cliff.
01:51:34.000As soon as they got away from the books.
01:51:36.000Because they had no idea what they were doing.
01:51:40.000They thought they could write a show based on Tolkien's work with no source material, except these appendices that Tolkien wrote, and it just does not work, does not work at all.
01:51:52.000John Gagner says I no longer get notifications from Timcast, IRL, Matt Walsh, Steven Crowder, Blair White, or Joe Rogan.
01:52:28.000We talked about The Babylon Bee doing something like that in California, putting up some billboards on Gavin Newsom's drive from his home to work.
01:52:39.000You know, like, Satan approves Gavin Newsom's new abortion policy and have a picture of the devil up there or something.
01:52:44.000Just like, have one billboard after another, knowing that he's gonna drive by them all.
01:52:48.000I think that was inspired by you a little bit, because you were like, you really like billboards.
01:53:09.000Yeah, and then I was just like, I wonder why there are so many more people who have way more money than I do who don't try to just push back on this culture and they just don't care.
01:54:23.000There's like, Peter Thiel's doing some stuff, but man, I gotta tell you, if I had 1 billion dollars, let alone 5 to 20, I'd be funding crazy stuff.
01:54:35.000If I had a billion dollars, I would set up a table, I would get, obviously, security guards, and then I would let people line up outside and come in one at a time with their proposals, and I'd just be writing checks.
01:55:07.000I would put money in, I would like, hire a bunch of people and be like, let's make a graphic novel publishing arm, you know, so we're trying to do this stuff, obviously, but I just, it's, I wish I made a fraction of the money some of these guys make, but what do they do with it all?
01:55:19.000They could, especially the ones who complain about the culture war and are concerned about free speech, I'm like, bro, you got a billion dollars.
01:55:25.000You could, you could fart and impact media.
01:55:28.000Jeff Bezos bought the Washington Post!
01:55:32.000And not only that, but people are starving for that.
01:55:35.000People are starving for good stories because they just don't exist anymore.
01:55:39.000I was talking about how I wanted to open a cafe and then open it up next to Starbucks and then do a really great co-op deal where we just pay the staff really, really well and then convince everyone to quit Starbucks and come work for us.
01:55:50.000We will be not woke and we will pay way better than all these megacorporations.
01:55:54.000Because our end goal won't be to just generate massive profits for the shareholders, it will be to push back on the culture and make a statement.
01:56:02.000To all of these companies that want to engage in this weird cult-like woke behavior, we will make a competitive market option where people won't want to work for you and won't want to buy from you.
01:56:13.000But I can't do that right now because that requires a lot of money.
01:56:46.000Because there are people, I gotta tell you, when people find out you're successful, they crawl out of the woodwork.
01:56:50.000I couldn't imagine what it must be like for someone who wins the lottery.
01:56:52.000I read a story about a dude in India who won the lottery and then people started harassing him and targeting his family, demanding money, just crazy stuff.
01:57:01.000Dude, I watched a Mr. Beast video where they did that thing where it's like you gotta put your hand in the million dollars and whoever's the last person wins it.
01:57:08.000And then guys like, I promise 50 grand to this person, that person.
01:57:11.000I'm like, dude, you're gonna get a phone call from every single person you've ever met talking about how you're their best friend and they always believed in you and now they need 50 grand.
01:58:25.000The thing about Times Square is it has a decent amount of, a decent effect, and it was kind of just to make a statement like, we can do this.
01:58:43.000And that's why we decided against doing any hard political messaging that was like, Directly attacking the establishment.
01:58:50.000What we, you know, the most, the closest we get to is Michael Malice's quote on the Times Square billboard saying, uh, the corporate press gives you the narrative, Tim Cass gives you the news.
01:58:59.000And we talked about it and it's like, if you create an ad that insults the establishment, you are setting yourself apart and telling regular people you are not a part of the machine.
01:59:27.000You feel that the dominant culture and this legacy media... I watched a late night comedy show last night for like the first time in years because I was in a hotel and that's, you know, there's nothing else to watch.
02:00:06.000And I'm wondering, who's watching this stuff?
02:00:07.000And Greg Gutfeld on Fox News is beating them in the ratings.
02:00:11.000And there are YouTube channels that are beating him in the ratings.
02:00:14.000So you really do get the sense that they're on their way out.
02:00:18.000We were getting more views on our show than Trevor Noah was getting on his show.
02:00:24.000But he was getting more YouTube views on the clips from his show than our clips got on this show, so it was interesting.
02:00:29.000For, like, if you were to compare this live show to his show, granted, I guess his show is shorter, so you can argue that, you know, there's a way to argue he was doing better, I suppose.
02:01:00.000Google is also pushing for him to be disbarred.
02:01:03.000Google is or people are Well, the story I've heard, this may not be accurate either, is that he, uh, people complained to the bar about trying to get him disbarred, and then he doxed them, but it turns out, according to Jeremy the Quartering, he wasn't actually doxing them, he was displaying information that was already public, and then YouTube banned him for that, and this is unclear, I don't know if that's confirmed.
02:01:44.000No, I guess, you know, check out the Babylon Bee.
