00:00:12.620 doing all that fun stuff crazy ass uh week in the world crazy week for me um it's been a crazy month
00:00:21.660 january has been uh the biggest month for my career in my entire 12 years of doing comedy
00:00:32.700 what's really cool about it being january is i started comedy in january my first ever stand-up
00:00:39.060 comedy set was january 7th 20 2011 so actually is that 13 years so i've been doing comedy or 12 or
00:00:50.620 13 years since january 2011 is when i stepped foot on the first open mic stage wasn't the first time
00:01:01.180 i've been on stage by the way because i as a kid i played violin and i did acting in high school but
00:01:07.340 it was the first time i did a stand-up set and my mom was there and um my friends came
00:01:16.740 and it was super epic and i remember i always think about the first time i did stand-up too because
00:01:23.560 now when i do stand-up sometimes before the show i'm pacing around having a cigarette
00:01:30.500 outside thinking about what i'm gonna say and i did the same thing on the first night that i ever did
00:01:36.640 stand-up so that's special and 13 years later january 2024 i gained 70 000 followers in one month
00:01:53.060 i went from 80 something thousand followers to 149 000 right now we're sitting at 149 about to be at 150
00:02:04.360 which is another celebration which i have to chill with the celebrating because there's too many good
00:02:10.940 things happening you're gonna be uh physically fit i don't want to get injured i did injure my neck a
00:02:16.820 little bit celebrating recently celebrating that ricky gervais um actually dm me back after

00:02:58.020 i think i'm just a bit regular obese og obese and i tweaked something and then i had to go to
00:03:06.840 windsor and it was a whole thing anyway i talked about it on the patreon i don't want to get into that

00:04:45.120 um but this sweater is special to me this is a two-year-old sweater it's actually kind of wrinkled
00:04:53.900 um so that was a mistake we shouldn't have worn it but i wore this sweater on kill tony
00:05:00.780 over two years ago when i was on vacation
00:05:06.380 and uh put my name in a bucket and got pulled

00:05:29.200 oh we're gonna get to that ben bankus is next on kill tony let's see what happens here
00:05:35.360 there's a little pop from the comedian section there that's usually a good sign
00:05:39.840 here he is everybody put your hands together one more time for ben bankus
00:05:44.880 yo what up i'm from canada too but i'm not retarded
00:05:53.040 sorry
00:06:01.520 yeah we got uh legal weed in canada which is it seems good but it's weird because we have like
00:06:12.560 warnings on the label of weed like i had this weed that said may cause schizophrenia i was like this
00:06:18.160 some good dude this is some schizophrenia cush right here and i had this other weed that said pregnant
00:06:26.320 mothers who use cannabis may contain thc in their breast milk i was like i want to suck on this
00:06:30.720 bitch's titties that sounds
00:06:34.800 sounds incredible delivery is so different back then it's crazy to watch just how much more
00:06:43.120 um and amateur it is really than now
00:06:46.320 you guys ever get high and watch youtube you ever so high watching youtube you accidentally watch a
00:06:57.760 12-minute toyota ad
00:07:05.920 probably should just open with that joke looking back
00:07:09.440 um i don't want to watch the whole thing because um we might even have to cut this part out because
00:07:16.880 um i've actually never smoked weed in my life once i've never done drugs and i've only ever smoked a cigarette
00:07:25.840 but that was a legendary experience that uh allegedly happened and uh
00:07:31.600 uh tony was nice about it we could hear what he had to say here
00:07:38.080 that's fantastic work fantastic work i literally thought i was the only one that did that
00:07:45.840 i guess everybody does that that's wild yeah pretty wise observation it's always a sign of a really good
00:07:51.360 joke is when it's something like that how long you been on stand-up 10 years 10 years
00:07:57.200 fuck yeah i get it i could i could sense that absolute control of the room acknowledge the
00:08:04.000 fucking uh incident from earlier what part of canada are you from i'm from toronto canada

00:11:09.680 apartment one month like just some really dark shit but anyway he got pulled like he was like

00:11:21.680 the show in stadiums now what's up everybody it's me ben bankus sorry to interrupt this program but i
00:11:27.840 want you guys to help me out support me the best way to support me and get bonus content every week
00:11:35.040 is by going to patreon.com slash ben bankus and signing up it's six dollars canadian a month four
00:11:42.560 dollars us a month go sign up we are competing against other comedians some of these guys are
00:11:49.280 making hundreds of thousands of dollars a month on this shit uh we can beat that okay so patreon.com
00:11:57.760 slash ben bankus you know what it is go sign up super bowl is coming up which is exciting and it's
00:12:04.320 always around uh the time of year that's my birthday my birthday is uh february 4th so uh put that in
00:12:11.760 your calendar and i think super is that super bowl sunday on february 4th or is it february 4th not sunday
00:12:18.960 what is it it's uh thursday so february 7th will be the super bowl pretty pretty much that's what
00:12:28.640 what it's like every year oh february 11th is the super bowl
00:12:37.680 the fuck sunday february oh this is january
00:12:41.520 oh yeah february 4th is a sunday oh it's oh so it's the following week okay
00:12:49.040 yeah so my uh birthday's coming up
00:12:53.600 and i'm gonna be turning 32 and i'm feeling good about it honestly a lot of people i think i'm in a
00:13:03.680 better position than a lot of people on their 32nd birthday that um you know i can at least say that my
00:13:10.560 january was strong so when i came into my 32nd birthday it was it was a good feeling
00:13:17.520 and this is go time really because i feel like there's a window like once you're in your 40s if
00:13:23.680 you weren't already famous in your 30s or popular like you know nobody's being like who's your favorite
00:13:30.480 comic oh this 45 year old fat guy named ben bankus who well that's also not true because when i was in
00:13:37.200 university my favorite comic was louis ck and he was very popular among people i knew like very
00:13:42.320 popular and he was in his 40s at the time and we were in our teens we were like 18 so
00:13:54.640 never give up on your dreams honestly because you could one of my favorite comedians of all time
00:13:59.600 rodney dangerfield he quit comedy at 28 i think he did it from like when he was like 19 or 20
00:14:06.480 until he was 28 and then he went full-time aluminum siding uh sales which is what i well
00:14:12.400 i didn't sell aluminum side i sold photocopiers for a while uh with rico and then i did uh commercial
00:14:19.680 real estate but office leasing but uh he sold aluminum siding even after he got famous again so
00:14:29.120 he just kept writing jokes for 12 years 13 years and didn't perform and then when he was 41 or 40 he
00:14:36.880 went back on stage started going back on stage and he got it he got opportunities he went on i think
00:14:41.920 whatever it was merv griffin or one of those shows and blew up because being on one of those shows now
00:14:50.240 was what viral is today having a video get six and a half million views i mean that's probably less
00:15:00.960 views than rodney dangerfield would have got on his first appearance on whatever it was let me find out
00:15:06.720 what it was ed sullivan that's who it was yeah 1967 march 1967 he went on ed sullivan and it wasn't until
00:15:17.040 the 80s i think that he was on fucking carson dude because that's what happened he he accused
00:15:27.040 carson of having some guy in the audience at one of his shows steal one of his jokes and give it to
00:15:32.000 carson and they had beef and then at one point somebody came in to a comedy club and saw rodney
00:15:40.240 dangerfield perform and was like johnny would love you and he and he didn't want to tell that guy
00:15:48.880 about he just thought okay maybe maybe he's over it right and so he's like you you got johnny you're
00:15:55.280 gonna do johnny all this stuff he's super excited and then they called him like two days later like
00:16:00.240 actually no johnny's still mad about the fact that you accused him of stealing that joke
00:16:05.840 and then he just kind of i forget what it was he sent a letter or or he saw him at a restaurant he
00:16:12.000 saw johnny carson at a restaurant and he just went up to him and he was like yo man like my bad like
00:16:17.920 seriously i want to do your show and he was already doing well so johnny sat down with him they had
00:16:23.440 drinks and that's how the story goes and then they he went on johnny carson and after that he became like
00:16:29.360 a regular on johnny carson um but each one of those episodes of johnny carson was probably like
00:16:36.320 what 20 million people nine million viewers nightly so
00:16:44.640 that's on average that's still pretty high but that's what it is like my one of my best videos
00:16:50.560 right now are like what six seven million views so that's probably how many people would have seen
00:16:55.920 your stand-up if you went on johnny carson any given night it's interesting looking at history
00:17:01.600 backwards through the lens of we have social media now because you realize that everything was really
00:17:07.760 just building towards social media like all tv all comedy everything the way it worked was
00:17:16.480 substituting for the fact that they didn't have social media and it makes more sense or it makes sense
00:17:22.720 that people like colbert and all these other late night hosts don't get that many views because of
00:17:28.240 how much shit is out there to watch right like if they were the only thing you could watch then yeah
00:17:33.440 they would be getting the views which in some ways i think america kind of envies canada having our
00:17:41.840 government-funded tv shit
00:17:46.400 because that kind of makes sure that that's all that's on tv especially because most people who watch
00:17:52.560 tv now are just old it's not like most young people don't watch tv at all don't have cable
00:18:01.920 like if you meet somebody with cable that's that's odd unless they own a home like own a full-on house
00:18:09.360 they just have cable like that's kind of a it's almost a red flag to be honest if somebody owns cable
00:18:16.160 that they have like mild dementia or something but i guess cable is important if you want to watch
00:18:23.360 sports thank you for listening to the bank of show this show is sponsored by my patreon account that's

00:18:53.680 the patreon button this year's super bowl is going to be taylor swift versus san francisco
00:18:59.280 taylor swift um has taken over football somehow by becoming this cheerleader girlfriend
00:19:12.480 of what's his name travis kelsey super embarrassing for him like i don't know how he deals with that
00:19:23.360 he must get bullied on the on the team about that be like yo taylor like there's like i would be
00:19:30.560 chirping somebody i knew that was dating taylor swift straight up especially if i worked with them are you
00:19:36.720 kidding me but i think what's going to happen is the kansas city what are they called now chiefs they're
00:19:48.080 still called the chiefs it's still allowed that is interesting that she's dating a guy on the only
00:19:53.280 the last racist named team right kansas city chiefs but kansas city is going to win because they beat
00:20:02.000 buffalo which was basically a rigged game that's what people are saying there was it was a rigged game
00:20:08.320 and they beat buffalo because taylor swift has money money on this shit she's got marketing money
00:20:17.680 if taylor swift's boyfriend wins a super bowl that's good for her music tour that's good for her music
00:20:24.960 career you see what i'm saying like who's the halftime show do we know who the halftime show is yet has she
00:20:32.400 been the halftime show before hopefully not hopefully she will be i mean maybe that's what she wants out of
00:20:39.280 this i don't know what she wants but she is manipulating everything like all the magazines
00:20:47.040 are talking about taylor swift she's not that attractive can we get that sorted out here she's
00:20:55.040 not that attractive she has almost no shape to her she is a straight stick figure woman she is basically a
00:21:04.800 plain jane facial like facially she looks a little mousy not
00:21:14.000 she's you don't look at her and go oh my god she's gorgeous you look at her and go yeah i'd
00:21:18.160 fuck her that's pretty much what it is and that's what travis kelsey said he goes i'd fuck her and now
00:21:26.160 he's gonna win the super bowl because he fucked her which is good for travis kelsey honestly
00:21:33.120 that's boss like it's gonna suck when he when she breaks his heart and she like just bangs one of the
00:21:38.480 black players because we all know that's coming we all know the day's coming when oh taylor swift blows
00:21:49.360 some black guy in the locker room after the super bowl win travis kelsey found crying into the uh
00:21:55.920 into the whatever they have the american stanley cup you're telling me that travis kelsey is a
00:22:01.280 spokesperson for pfizer and she could sway the election because one-fifth of her audience
00:22:08.640 will vote how she wants them to vote i mean if this was the other way around and it was you know
00:22:15.600 like joe rogan was at the like or there was a female presence at these games that was going the
00:22:22.240 other direction it was pro-trump everybody would be saying how horrible it is this is awful she
00:22:28.640 promotes horrible things but because it's taylor swift and her fans are majority of her fans are
00:22:35.920 just clinically insane women that have no life no husband no kids they make their profile picture
00:22:43.280 into taylor swift they think they're taylor swift they're mentally deranged people they're very
00:22:47.840 similar to ariana grande fans um and any other fan of of uh these artists where uh terror attacks
00:22:56.880 happen at their shows no but there is a cult like fan fanaticism with taylor swift but it's only from
00:23:07.920 people that you'd never want to hang out with nobody who's a taylor swift fan are you like oh that
00:23:12.960 person's cool right i mean it's a lot of her fans are kids right and like basically adult kids people
00:23:24.000 who never grew up people who just just a lot of sad women women that aren't helping society there's very
00:23:35.360 few taylor swift fans that are good for society i'll tell you that right now very few you know taylor
00:23:43.520 swift oh she can sway the election how about taylor how about you tell one-fifth of your fans instead
00:23:48.640 of telling them who to vote for you tell them to kill themselves do you do that
00:23:56.400 i think one-fifth of taylor swift's fans should um should should drink the the uh the fruit punch
00:24:05.360 it could get to that though we could get to the point where if they start pushing euthanasia people
00:24:11.920 like taylor swift would be like look you guys maybe like if imagine she came out and was like
00:24:16.320 a lot of my fans are mentally ill and might need to commit like be put down those fans would do it
00:24:22.640 they'd be like she's right i'm fucking out of my mind i think i'm taylor swift i'm not i live in a
00:24:26.960 bachelor apartment that my parents pay for because i have uh schizophrenia and i'm a woman
00:24:32.640 and nobody wants to take care of me nobody can stand me
00:24:39.200 yeah i think she should tell one-fifth of her fans that it's time to go
00:24:45.680 look taylor swift has a bad haircut can we agree on like that hairstyle of i have the bangs
00:24:55.600 any girl with bangs it's like okay what what is this you're woke you work at a bookstore the
00:25:02.400 coffee shop at the books taylor swift looks like she works at the starbucks at the chapters
00:25:09.440 right she doesn't she looks like she works at a barnes and noble she's not that interesting there's
00:25:16.080 nothing she doesn't talk about anything interesting i've never there's never been a line from her
00:25:20.880 she doesn't really motivate anybody in my opinion like maybe does she does she say you can do it
00:25:25.920 anything you want i don't i think she just goes on there and goes i'm taylor swift here's my shitty
00:25:30.000 song about how many times i broke up with this these guys and and and that's it and it's
00:25:37.040 none of this music i wrote i didn't do anything maybe she did write that's some people oh she's an
00:25:43.360 amazing lyricist oh give me a break let me let me pull up who writes for taylor swift taylor swift
00:25:50.720 has written and is credited as a songwriter on all of her songs she's also collaborated and co-written
00:25:56.240 with many other songwriters so are you saying that she doesn't have any ghostwriters is that
00:26:02.000 is that facts does taylor swift have ghostwriters no she works hard and writes directly from her
00:26:07.760 heart i love how her fans is like they would never her fans are so dumb that even if taylor
00:26:12.480 swift went out there i didn't write any of this they'd be like oh stop she's being modest like
00:26:17.760 mentally deranged people that this she doesn't have to tell her fans whether to vote for trump
00:26:23.120 or biden because even if she told them to vote for trump they wouldn't that whole one-fifth of
00:26:28.640 her fans would vote for trump that's bullshit it's one-fifth of her fans are mentally deranged and will
00:26:33.680 always vote democrat liberal no matter what um
00:26:42.000 some of the songs i bet you didn't know were written by taylor swift
00:26:50.320 this uh to add a nick yes taylor's definitely writes or at the very least is co-author on all of
00:26:56.880 her songs she doesn't i don't know maybe i'm wrong but let's just see taylor swift
00:27:07.120 ai because this is the big story right
00:27:12.480 this is the big story about taylor swift right now explicit fake images of taylor swift
00:27:18.720 prove laws haven't kept pace with tech experts say first of all this is absolute
00:27:24.640 bullshit in my opinion that we're not going to regulate ai because the government's using it to
00:27:32.880 data mine and data harvest everything that we do we're not banning it because all of the fortune 500
00:27:39.600 companies are using it to data mine and data harvest and and find out everything about us and
00:27:44.320 uh calculate what we're going to buy next and all this kind of stuff we're not doing it to the
00:27:49.040 advertisers who use it we're not doing it because uh the military is using ai to create
00:27:57.120 drones and shit that blow people up without human pushing a button that's all fine but taylor swift
00:28:06.560 has ai images of her doing some sort of explicit thing and now we need to regulate the
00:28:14.160 internet fuck you taylor swift shut up i haven't even seen the images and i want to but um she
00:28:21.760 actually looks kind of hot in this video they know how to make her look hotter than she is though
00:28:25.520 that's i have to say that isn't she like 50
00:28:32.400 how long has she been famous though for like 15 years right explicit ai generated photos of one
00:28:38.640 of the world's most famous artists spread rapidly across social media this week highlighting
00:28:43.920 once again what experts describe as an urgent need to crack down on technology and platforms that
00:28:49.120 make it possible for harmful images to be shared fake photos of taylor swift that depicted the songwriter
00:28:54.640 in sexually suggestive positions so she wasn't even naked this is the really crazy part about this
00:29:01.840 folks she wasn't even naked first of all i remember what jessica out when we used to we're kids and we
00:29:08.480 jerk off to porn they had jessica alba always it would be her on a body her head on a picture and
00:29:15.200 shit like that there was no we need to shut down the internet and she was this was actually naked pictures
00:29:22.240 and what about all the all the artists the the actresses that had their naked images actually shared
00:29:30.160 on the internet and leaked like jessica uh jennifer lawrence jennifer remember when jennifer lawrence's
00:29:37.600 photos were leaked and it was like literally her like finger banging herself and her tits out and
00:29:41.920 they were real photos they were actually real photos that people shared on the internet
00:29:45.280 they're not even like this isn't even that bad can you see it yeah this isn't that bad this one's
00:30:06.640 kind of they're kind of hot she looks hotter in ai by the way totally they're flattering this is what
00:30:13.280 this is why taylor swift wants to ban ai okay and regulate it because taylor swift is hotter with ai
00:30:25.600 most people are uglier with ai you see look at a picture of me with ai you look at a picture of
00:30:31.520 anybody with a the ai version ugly but ai makes taylor swift sexy i don't know what it is but the
00:30:38.640 computer fixes all those boring parts about her where she's just like i'm taylor swift now she's
00:30:45.280 like yes taylor you need to learn from the fucking internet and from the ai and start acting a little
00:30:52.480 sexier otherwise i hope your football team loses okay i want to see her get hit at 25 kilometers an hour
00:31:02.160 whatever those black guys run at just see taylor swift get decked on the side of the i don't want
00:31:10.560 i don't want to i'm not saying that we should that should happen but if it did and on tv and i was
00:31:15.840 watching it i might have a little chuckle to myself but it'd be a big deal that would be viral by the way
00:31:22.000 taylor that's a good idea if you want to um do something viral accidentally fall down the stairs or
00:31:27.680 something at the at the fucking super bowl right that would be fall down the step here's my prediction
00:31:34.880 she's gonna fall on the super she's gonna fall down something's gonna happen there's gonna be
00:31:40.080 some sort of oh my god is taylor okay and then that's how they're gonna rig the game deflate gate
00:31:45.280 all that stuff if i can quote quote taylor swift x marks the spot where we fall apart said
00:31:52.960 kirsten thomason an assistant professor at university of british columbia
00:31:58.080 fuck you kirsten thomason whoever the fuck you are some shitty professor at a shitty university
00:32:06.000 nobody cares what you think it's it's unbelievable that you are paid to teach kids
00:32:12.240 to to that more ban more things ban it ban it
00:32:16.320 where we ought to be focusing more attention in the law is also now on the designers that create
00:32:26.240 the tools that make this so easy and on the websites that make it possible to have these this
00:32:31.840 image go up and then be seen by millions of people said thomason
00:32:36.400 so basically there's a technology that exists that makes you able to fake celebrities images
00:32:46.400 their voices and that should be illegal i even saw jordan peterson post something it was like an ai uh
00:32:57.200 thing of aoc or somebody and he was saying this should be illegal because you can trick people into
00:33:03.280 thinking that this is true if you watch an ai aoc and think it's real you're retarded like i'm sorry
00:33:10.400 like sorry jordan i love your work and i love everything uh you know you do and um your daughter's
00:33:15.520 very cool and and you've got a great family but if you can to make it illegal to make a shitty video
00:33:23.360 like i get in 10 years maybe it's like it'll be indistinguishable i don't think so you'll always
00:33:27.760 be able to know some guy made it in a basement let's be honest after the pornographic photos
00:33:35.520 depicting swift began to appear the artist fans swapped the platform with protect taylor swift
00:33:41.440 posts an effort to bury the images and make them harder to find through search what this is the level
00:33:49.920 of insanity we have where people are more willing to put their name and life on the line for taylor swift
00:34:00.320 than for their own countries or for their own communities or their own kids most of these women
00:34:07.840 tweeting this shit have probably had fucking four abortions let's be honest um protect taylor swift
00:34:14.960 i'm a fucking maniac i'm a fucking hole i'm a cat whore you know those those fat women that stink
00:34:22.720 like cats and then they and then they're quote that um taylor ben bankus says taylor swift fans are fat
00:34:37.760 stinky cat women but they're protecting her from these images that aren't even from what my
00:34:46.160 understanding they're not even naked photos they're just sexy photos of her in front of the kansas city
00:34:52.320 chiefs and all this stuff they're not naked what are they protecting against from people maybe liking
00:34:59.200 her a bit more like her fat her fans are like the fat woman at the club that doesn't let you hit on
00:35:08.960 their friend that's what they're doing because all these images come out and guys are like bro
00:35:13.840 did you see this video taylor swift's fake but it's fucking she looks hot and now her fans like hey you
00:35:19.680 cannot look at taylor that way she is a she's mine and she's my friend she's coming home with me to
00:35:27.440 no share a couple sexy fucking photos taylor in a post x says its teams were closely monitoring
00:35:35.680 the site to see whether photos would continue to appear our teams are actively removing all
00:35:39.840 identified images and taking appropriate action against the accounts responsible for posting them
00:35:47.040 i have to be honest that's insane that x is is like a free speech website but then taylor swift
00:35:53.360 complains and you know if she can if taylor swift can get x to delete every fake ai photo of her
00:36:03.040 then taylor swift can rig the nfl to make the kansas city chiefs win the super bowl
00:36:11.040 am i wrong she's got power she's got money u.s white house spokesperson you know i'm talking
00:36:19.280 about the black lady with the that looks like a muppet has muppet hair
00:36:26.960 kareen jean pierre said social media companies have an important role to play in preventing the
00:36:33.280 spread of misinformation and non-consensual intimate imagery i did not consent to have a
00:36:40.000 artist an ai artist render so does that mean i can't paint a picture of taylor swift what if i
00:36:46.240 wanted to paint a picture of taylor swift where her she's going like this and her little tiny
00:36:50.960 non-existent titties are uh fucking being pushed together while she looks like a character from
00:36:57.600 madagascar is that illegal for me to draw a picture of taylor swift is that adult image like it's this is
00:37:05.680 it's getting to the point this is very alarming so we're going to do what we can do to deal with this
00:37:13.280 issue yeah it's alarming to to john pierre this the the white house press secretary that taylor swift
00:37:19.840 images of not even of her nude that's alarming folks it's not alarming that iran just is backing all you
00:37:29.840 know using u.s money that trump cut off by the way and then biden re re gave to iran and they're
00:37:36.800 using that to create the whole hamas thing and that and the whole hootie thing and it caused all
00:37:41.360 these problems all that it's like oh we got that under control but you know what's alarming that taylor
00:37:46.640 swift uh there's a fake photo of her going like this in front of a couple football players and she's
00:37:51.120 fully clothed fuck off this is ridiculousness as the ai industry continues to grow companies looking to
00:37:58.960 share in the profits of design tools giving users with little experience the ability to create
00:38:03.840 images and videos using simple instructions the tools have been popular and beneficial in some
00:38:08.960 sectors but it also makes unnervingly it makes it unnervingly easy to create what are known as deep
00:38:15.520 fakes ooh deep fakes there's nothing worse than a shitty obviously fake photo of like it's
00:38:24.480 the deep fake detecting group reality defender said it tracked a deluge of
00:38:28.400 non-consensual pornographic material depicting swift particularly on x some images also made
00:38:34.320 their way to meta-owned facebook ooh facebook
00:38:40.880 i i don't know
00:38:49.600 after this week's targeting of swift u.s politicians called for new laws to criminalize the creation of
00:38:54.480 deep fake images are you understanding how fucked up that is i mean it's the same idea as in
00:39:05.200 in ireland where they're doing no more memes or no more mean memes or offensive memes or memes against
00:39:12.720 the government and oh because we don't want to ruin that's how we protect we're protecting democracy
00:39:19.120 it's a lie this is a lie that's a lie how can you protect democracy by making it illegal to do stuff
00:39:31.360 some canadian laws that deal with the broader issue of non-consensual distribution of intimate
00:39:35.040 images but most of those laws don't explicitly refer to deep fakes because they weren't an issue so oh
00:39:40.320 there you go if you want to do deep fakes come to canada we don't have a law against again
00:39:44.720 judges dealing with deep fakes have to decide how to apply old laws to new tech
00:39:52.160 is should we should what do we do about all those jackie chan movies where there's a
00:39:56.880 a dub over chinese dub over is that a deep fake
00:40:02.800 that's basically what i did though with with my olivia chow videos they're like some people can
00:40:06.400 be like that's a deep fake and make it illegal but it's like the one good thing about making deep
00:40:12.320 fakes illegal is then only i can do them and then i can just use my own voice and it's an actual video
00:40:17.680 so it's not a real deep fake have to prove that in court now oh sir it was not a real deep fake i
00:40:26.080 swear to god
00:40:29.920 here's a video let's change the subject for a moment what's up everybody it's your boy ben bankus i am

00:42:13.280 with this whole trump scandal where they're giving this woman 83 million dollars because he said
00:42:19.680 something that offended her or he he claimed to not have raped her when it was proven that he didn't
00:42:25.760 rape her and so then because they couldn't win that case they just did a defamation lawsuit it's like
00:42:31.200 defamation she who is this woman nobody's ever fucking heard of her if anything he did he he he
00:42:36.720 should be getting 83 million dollars from her for creating some publicity around her name who the
00:42:42.720 fuck is johnny carol nobody fucking knows just some old woman with dementia that they slapped
00:42:49.200 makeup on she's basically a female biden and they bring her in and she's all oh i'm so happy oh
00:42:56.080 she doesn't even know what she's talking about and they give giving her 83 million dollars to some
00:43:00.800 old bag who who are her kids that are about to be rich as shit if they weren't already i'm assuming
00:43:05.760 she was already rich if she's getting a lawsuit at that such a high number she doesn't have kids
00:43:12.960 she lives with a bunch of cats in the middle of the woods she now has 83 million dollars most of
00:43:18.080 it's probably going to go to the uh to biden or or toward you know she's going to donate to the
00:43:22.560 campaign against trump and we have to get all these women who hate trump it's like why don't
00:43:28.640 you just say it how it is women who don't like to suck dick i'm so like and oh all those women at
00:43:35.440 those uh you know pro-abortion rallies no we are i'm a horn for who who's fucking you some loser gay
00:43:42.880 guy who's in the closet some dylan mulvaney looking motherfucker is is is is the one who's getting
00:43:49.200 one who's getting his dick sucked by you that you're such a whore had to have five abortions
00:43:53.440 who's impregnating you who i i honestly think half these women going i've had five abortions
00:43:59.200 they're just so mentally ill that they're like i want to have an they want to the only reason
00:44:03.360 these women on the left want an abortion is they just want somebody to get them pregnant
00:44:08.240 i want an abortion is i want to get pregnant and then destroy it and then keep you know just have a
00:44:13.200 bad life i don't know that's to me that's what that is a lot of the problems in our society seem
00:44:18.400 to be coming from the fact that all these young women who have abortions they don't have kids
00:44:23.360 when they could have kids and then what did you go on to do ladies did you go on to be a ceo did you
00:44:28.560 go on to be you know a leader in your field no you got an abortion because you didn't want to have
00:44:34.720 a kid and now you're 35 and you're going fuck i want a kid you're you killed it the kid was 10 would
00:44:41.920 have been 10 now you killed a 10 year old
00:44:46.800 every year after the abortion is another year older your kid would have been so if you're
00:44:50.720 if you had an abortion 10 years ago you would have had a 10 year old just think about that it's
00:44:55.280 fucked up um not saying it should be illegal not saying it shouldn't be illegal but definitely saying
00:45:03.600 that this whole feminized fascism that's taking place that was a
00:45:11.600 term coined by tucker carlson recently i heard it when he came to canada talking about christia
00:45:19.200 freeland who in canada is she's feminized fascism it's this idea that you can't ask any questions
00:45:26.320 but it's not because i not because we're going to kill you or because you know we have guards we'll
00:45:31.200 send guards to your house it's because it's just not nice it's not nice to ask questions it's we
00:45:38.000 don't like we don't want to be rude that's women don't ask me that question in a rude way i don't like
00:45:43.600 when you're rude well too bad our countries are founded on fucking rude people who weren't afraid to
00:45:50.800 say it how it is and and and put their foot down and say this is bullshit the western world was not
00:45:57.600 founded by john e carols bunch of fucking dumb cat ladies who didn't suck enough dick in their life
00:46:06.640 didn't have kids didn't have purpose didn't do anything for the greater good of society at all
00:46:14.880 other than be a whiny old rich woman that apparently got what did she say in a department store that she
00:46:22.640 got raped and then they found out it wasn't true bro you know how that's how you know women are crazy
00:46:29.680 as fuck when you know like how people throw out rape allegations like you know like women will just
00:46:35.600 fuck you and not like you and like throw out a rape allegation this woman's in her 80s doing that

00:46:58.400 have my opinion but at the end of the day i'm confused i don't know you know uh

00:47:47.760 you guys i'm against trump i'm against pierre poliev i'm against i want him if you're not pro
00:47:54.320 immigration mass immigration all this stuff you're being told by the mainstream media that you're a bad
00:47:59.680 person that your thinking is wrong that you just aren't understanding and you're not willing to move
00:48:07.040 at the pace of change that society's moving at that's what i hate about all these politicians
00:48:11.440 especially these young like aocs i want to be we need to be the voice of change but they never say
00:48:18.160 change to what change to what to shit they're changing everything to shit and i talk about
00:48:25.200 this in my act so i don't want to get too into it but seriously stop changing things that don't need
00:48:33.840 to be changed and they've convinced people of color right non-whites they've convinced non-whites
00:48:41.280 that if if anybody says i don't want to change anymore i want to stay the same or i want to go
00:48:50.080 back they've convinced all those people that means back to racism that means back to slavery but not
00:48:55.120 that far back you fucking idiot like 1985 to 2000 how about that far back how about from like how about
00:49:03.520 just the length of michael jordan's career can we just go like from whenever michael jordan started
00:49:09.120 basketball to when he finished that was the best era for everybody nobody people weren't really
00:49:15.920 racist against michael jordan people were like basketball yay black people whoo rap tupac biggie
00:49:22.400 whoa all these great black actors denzel this that eddie murphy uh will smith what are we talking about
00:49:31.200 are we trying to pretend that the 90s were slavery like fuck off that's what people want to go back to
00:49:36.560 they don't want to go back oh you want to go back that means you want to go back to the kkk and
00:49:41.440 the slate no we don't want to go back to that we want to go back to fucking michael jordan playing with
00:49:46.720 kobe at the tail end of the career or playing against right that's all i'm saying is stop that's how i
00:49:57.120 pissed off a guy i talked about this on my patreon pod but my latest show in windsor ontario one of
00:50:06.000 the guys who was the host of the show is a half black kind of kid and at the second show he got
00:50:12.480 all mad and and upset and because i was making a joke about exactly what i just said and it's like
00:50:19.760 he's like oh yeah going back over back back in time when i'm a slave no back in time to when you
00:50:25.520 would actually maybe had a career comedy is what i said to him and i kind of roast him a bit but it's
00:50:31.280 true 30 years ago 25 years ago 20 years ago if you're a black canadian doing stand-up comedy you
00:50:39.440 had a good you made a very good living compared to now so i don't want to hear any bullshit oh we're
00:50:45.680 going back because it means we're going back to racism no means we're going back to civilized
00:50:50.640 being civilized even the idea that you can't smoke anywhere and and i think you should be allowed to
00:50:55.520 smoke inside that's the one thing i agree with andrew tate on that smoking inside is a benefit to

00:54:07.280 christia freeland's oh we're gonna appeal it but i'm watching that going you guys should all resign
00:54:14.160 immediately that means that you were wrong about that and you've been wrong about everything since
00:54:18.400 then so you should resign but they won't resign and now they're changing the laws of how to vote all of
00:54:25.120 a sudden after they did all these things that they were proven to have fucked everybody over with

00:54:50.160 for taylor swift we need to get rid of all the ai images of taylor swift but they will not stand up for
00:54:57.760 free speech in their country they will not stand up and say yeah the the the whole reaction that the
00:55:05.040 government had to the freedom convoy was insane literally crushing a movement called a freedom
00:55:12.160 convoy and then claiming they're doing that in the name of freedom in the name of democracy we're
00:55:17.760 getting rid of the freedom fighting people but but hamas is a freedom those guys those are freedom
