Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec - THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 65 — CEO Assassins？ Day One of DOGE？ 100k Bitcoin？

00:00:00.640 From the age of Big Brother.

00:00:03.460 If they want to get you, they'll get you.

00:00:05.760 The NSA specifically targets the communications of everyone.

00:00:09.700 They're collecting your communications.

00:00:19.460 All right, ladies and gentlemen,

00:00:24.080 welcome to another edition of Thought Prime Thursday.

00:00:27.840 I'm here, Jack Posobiec, coming to you remote this evening.

00:00:33.820 I'm down here in Palm Beach, Florida.

00:00:37.820 I've been conducting a number of, well, let's just say activities inside and outside of the transition team.

00:00:45.940 Also doing the show from down here, watching as the greatest government that the United States has ever seen

00:00:52.940 is being put together before our very eyes.

00:00:56.180 Charlie Kirk, also intimately involved in said activities.

00:01:00.860 And, in fact, one of those activities is currently taking up a little bit of his time tonight.

00:01:06.240 And so we're not actually sure if Charlie is going to be joining us.

00:01:09.660 He was supposed to be here, but he may be flying in if he's able to do so.

00:01:14.760 But do not worry, do not fear, because we've got a fantastic thought crime lined up for you tonight

00:01:20.860 and a list of fascinating and wonderful crimes of thought to commit.

00:01:26.280 And joining us as well is Blake Neff.

00:01:28.400 What's up, Blake?

00:01:29.380 Howdy, Jack.

00:01:30.300 Good to have you.

00:01:31.200 You look like you are inside the sun right now, but I'm sure it's all for the best.

00:01:36.980 I've got like a light.

00:01:39.940 I've got like a light on my thing.

00:01:41.560 I could turn it down.

00:01:42.500 Am I still inside the sun?

00:01:44.300 How's that?

00:01:44.800 You're still somewhat inside the sun.

00:01:46.820 It looks like you've never seen the sun.

00:01:49.140 Yeah, you know, it's just part of the color, as it were, or the lack of color, we might say.

00:01:54.500 We have a special guest today because I think Andrew's on a plane, and I think Tyler was like,

00:02:00.740 I have to help some Republicans or some lame excuse like that.

00:02:04.600 Whatever.

00:02:05.160 We have one of the men who made our victory in this election possible.

00:02:09.100 This is Matthew Martinez.

00:02:10.360 He is with Chase the Vote over at Turning Point Action.

00:02:14.300 I would visit him every day before the election.

00:02:17.340 I would go in and I would say, are we going to win?

00:02:19.760 And he would be like, 110%, Blake, we're going to win.

00:02:22.820 And look at what happened.

00:02:23.720 And we won.

00:02:24.460 So if we'd lost, we might have thrown him off the building.

00:02:26.620 But we won, so he doesn't have to get thrown off the building.

00:02:30.400 And instead, he's the hero.

00:02:32.000 That's the stakes of winning and losing.

00:02:34.040 Thanks, Blake.

00:02:34.520 Thanks for the introduction.

00:02:35.980 And you know what?

00:02:36.920 I do have a little bit more sun.

00:02:38.960 We're calling here a sunny Phoenix, Arizona.

00:02:42.260 Spent a lot of time outside of my life.

00:02:45.760 And actually, before I got into politics, I actually did a lot of AC work on roofs and attics.

00:02:53.700 So I spent a lot of sun.

00:02:55.460 So that gave me a little bit more of my complexion, being here in Arizona.

00:03:00.500 But yeah, welcome.

00:03:02.060 Thanks for having me on the show.

00:03:03.160 Of course.

00:03:03.620 Of course.

00:03:04.060 Thank you.

00:03:04.440 Thank you for stepping in.

00:03:06.520 Well, the first topic we have, I think we were all in agreement we had to hit this.

00:03:10.940 We have armed lunatics murdering CEOs in the streets of America. 0.52

00:03:17.980 The CEO of UnitedHealthcare, that's one of the nation's largest health insurers, was, you'd say, gunned down in the streets of New York.

00:03:27.020 But that's kind of selling it short.

00:03:28.460 He was basically assassinated.

00:03:30.640 A guy came up, pulled up a suppressed pistol, shot him, made a planned getaway, it seems.

00:03:39.740 It seems police are closing in.

00:03:41.400 They have a photo of him.

00:03:43.020 They seem to even know where the suspect, kind of how he traveled up to Central Park.

00:03:48.480 Yeah, he traveled there on a bus from Atlanta, by the sounds of it.

00:03:51.880 Now, they haven't released a name for the person.

00:03:54.340 So my guess is maybe they were able to use security.

00:03:58.600 Have they released a name there?

00:04:00.060 I have to imagine they have a name by now.

00:04:03.140 If you've got that much information, you know which bus he took.

00:04:06.280 You know which they're talking about the hostel that he stayed at.

00:04:09.300 They have that.

00:04:10.340 They're talking about the bicycle he took, too.

00:04:11.960 I'm surprised they wouldn't give out the name, then, so people could ask for information, potentially, if they know who they're looking for.

00:04:23.860 But I guess, now that I think about it, they don't seem to do that in a lot of other cases.

00:04:28.320 Well, one of the things was that apparently the guy was traveling with a fake ID.

00:04:34.040 So it could be that the name they currently have is the fake name that he used to check into the hostel.

00:04:39.740 And then if he was traveling on the bus, then potentially, yeah, he wouldn't need, you know, wouldn't really need to buy a ticket in name if you, you know, if you paid cash, if you did it in a smart way.

00:04:50.960 So it's possible that they have a name, but it's just a fake name, and they're just kind of, you know, whittling down.

00:04:56.680 I mean, either way, here's what I want to say.

00:04:58.680 So I understand we probably can't.

00:05:00.780 Can we play the video or, you know, we're on Rumble, right?

00:05:03.800 I don't know if that's doable or not.

00:05:08.360 But just get back to me, producers, on the chat regarding that one.

00:05:13.020 But the question is, though, the first thing I want to say is that when this video first dropped, I remember it was going viral.

00:05:19.980 People were looking at it.

00:05:20.980 Charlie was looking at it.

00:05:22.060 He was asking me about it.

00:05:23.300 And people kept saying, oh, this thing is so professional.

00:05:26.540 It's a professional hit.

00:05:27.880 This is the real deal.

00:05:29.140 This is what it really looks like.

00:05:30.440 And I remember watching it going, this is a joke.

00:05:32.820 This guy's a LARPer.

00:05:33.980 This is a guy who's just, like, watched too many Liam Neeson movies and, like, too many Jack Reacher episodes.

00:05:40.600 Jack Ryan thinks he knows, you know, what he's supposed to do.

00:05:43.620 And it was hilariously sloppy, hilariously bad.

00:05:48.480 And I think that the more – it's like his gun jams at one point and then he slaps – oh, we're playing the video.

00:05:54.260 All right, here it is.

00:05:56.400 I mean, this is just despicable stuff, just straight-up despicable, evil, disgusting.

00:06:05.140 I've stayed at that hotel.

00:06:06.740 You know, this is the Midtown Hilton.

00:06:08.780 This is where Trump had his first victory speech in 2016.

00:06:14.120 This is where Trump's victory party was.

00:06:15.920 It was the same.

00:06:16.420 If it's the same Midtown Hilton, which I think it is, this is where Trump held his 2016 victory was in that very same hotel.

00:06:25.280 I was there then.

00:06:26.560 I was standing right – I remember at one point standing right there as Trump was walking in down that very same sidewalk.

00:06:33.800 When was that?

00:06:34.700 November 3rd of 2016.

00:06:36.480 And we were still on the 4th, you know, at, like, 3 in the morning.

00:06:39.140 I was walking by, and I watched – there was a fire truck there, and I watched John Podesta's speech, like, on this, like, little TV that was in the side of the fire truck.

00:06:48.520 And sorry, yeah, no, I mean, it doesn't – it's not connected to what happened.

00:06:52.440 It's just my memory of that sidewalk, that very same stretch of sidewalk is so vivid.

00:06:57.240 And then to think that there was this murder that took place there was crazy.

00:07:03.420 But what was the – Blake, there's another piece of it where we also apparently found out how it is that this guy slipped his mask.

00:07:11.880 Oh, yeah, so just breaking now, we were seeing this, the – we have a photo of the shooter where his mask is down.

00:07:21.820 And apparently the way they got this was a woman was flirting with him at the hostel that he stayed at.

00:07:28.400 I called it.

00:07:29.580 And asked him to pull down his mask while she was flirting with him. 1.00

00:07:33.260 And then you can see there he's got his mask pulled down and is smiling at her.

00:07:37.380 Wow.

00:07:37.800 He's got that Mac-in face.

00:07:39.300 He's got that face like a Mac-in face.

00:07:41.000 Like, you know, I'm something of an assassin myself.

00:07:43.940 Yeah.

00:07:45.760 You can see it.

00:07:47.560 A pure, like, you know, hideous incel shooter would have never made that mistake.

00:07:53.600 He would still be on the run, like no clues left behind.

00:07:58.360 Well, and so there were some clues that were left behind and this was – you know, apparently was done.

00:08:04.600 So I remember one of the first things I said was, you know, why leave shells – you're leaving shell casings everywhere.

00:08:09.660 They're going to be able to identify the gun.

00:08:11.820 And it turns out that the shell casings were left on purpose with a sort of message.

00:08:18.420 Do you have that?

00:08:18.960 I don't know if we have photos of it, but the actual words were – it was delay, defend, and depose.

00:08:27.500 I think depose is probably referring to, like, depositions that you would do in a legal case.

00:08:32.400 And so that gets into the second part of this, which is so interesting, is he was – he's a health insurance CEO.

00:08:39.260 Health insurance companies are not super popular in America because they're the ones you have to interact with and are very expensive health care system.

00:08:48.840 Health care costs a lot.

00:08:50.240 They sometimes deny claims or contest claims.

00:08:52.520 And, you know, the claim is especially that this company in particular allegedly is maybe more aggressive in contesting claims.

00:09:01.180 And so what you have on the internet, if you check Twitter or if you check the liberal haven of blue sky, you have people just overtly celebrating this murder.

00:09:09.300 They're saying, this is great.

00:09:11.340 He got what he deserved.

00:09:12.580 I hope this guy makes it out.

00:09:14.240 Those words apparently are referenced to a title of a book, right?

00:09:20.420 This book that was written, Jay Fineman, Delay, Deny, Defend, which is – it's exactly what you're talking about.

00:09:28.100 It's a book that was written about insurance companies who don't pay the claims, what you can do about it.

00:09:34.380 So it was this whole, like, famous, you know, in those circles, you know, cutoff of the insurance agency.

00:09:41.080 A real grievance, by the way.

00:09:42.460 A true grievance.

00:09:43.300 I'm not saying it's not a true grievance.

00:09:44.940 But apparently the writing – the words on the bullet casings were a direct reference to this book, you know, that was anti-insurance companies.

00:09:55.960 Yeah, precisely.

00:09:56.960 And so it's a valid – it's a valid critique to say that these companies deny too many claims.

00:10:05.540 But it's very dark that you're seeing this pivot towards people just overtly celebrating a – what is an appalling murder in the streets.

00:10:17.060 And I'll be honest.

00:10:19.440 I'm a little upset.

00:10:20.200 I think even on the right, I don't see people quite as opposed to this as they should be.

00:10:26.340 You're young.

00:10:27.400 You might have a good – you know, do – I feel like there's a lot of pro – there's a lot of sympathy towards, like, underdogs, however defined, even if they're criminals.

00:10:35.880 Sure.

00:10:36.300 Or just this sort of chaotic element among young people where they think America's a scam or America is rigged.

00:10:43.400 And it makes them inclined to cheer for people who are violent criminals.

00:10:47.940 It depends on the side of my generation, right, for these younger people.

00:10:52.780 Amongst students, if you're attending all these woke colleges, they're probably going to be parading a little bit more about this shooting, unfortunately.

00:11:00.400 Sickening.

00:11:00.900 It really is.

00:11:01.500 It's a gross mindset to have.

00:11:04.500 And this is – it could be anybody, right?

00:11:06.680 These are the same people that were parading when President Trump got shot, right, who they were just all excited, right?

00:11:13.160 This is disgusting, right?

00:11:15.160 But these are also the same people who are against all these gun control or are for all these gun control people.

00:11:21.220 So it doesn't make any sense.

00:11:22.800 It's an oxymoron, frankly, amongst these people.

00:11:26.460 But there's also another factor or, I guess, set of people my age who are recognizing what's going on, right?

00:11:35.760 And they're seeing that this is sickening regardless of political size or whomever it is, even if it's the most –

00:11:42.840 although he is the CEO of the eighth largest company in the world, I believe.

00:11:49.000 Maybe the eighth largest health.

00:11:50.480 Health, yeah, something like that.

00:11:51.520 It's probably not the eighth largest overall.

00:11:52.840 Now, I don't know.

00:11:53.540 I don't know my companies.

00:11:55.520 But regardless, even if the Robin Hood idea, right, what we care about and a lot of my generation is justice.

00:12:03.480 We – I think my generation is probably one of the largest – has this mindset of justice needs to be served with whomever, right?

00:12:14.520 So that's why you see my generation protests as a drop of a pen sometimes, right, because they want to see justice.

00:12:20.900 So it is – we are seeing a mix in my generation.

00:12:25.840 But I have also seen some things, too.

00:12:29.700 Some – I think I saw it on Blue Skies, the Democrat little organization, the Twitter of Democrats.

00:12:36.980 Democrats and pedophiles. 0.50

00:12:38.600 Yeah, yeah.

00:12:39.460 Those are the two groups on Blue Sky.

00:12:42.620 Make sure to say right there.

00:12:44.640 Maps, minor attracted persons, Blake.

00:12:47.100 We don't want you mis – what do you even call that?

00:12:52.060 Misorienting.

00:12:53.020 Misorienting the pedos.

00:12:55.540 No, we can't have that.

00:12:56.660 This is thought crime after all.

00:12:57.920 This is a very classy production.

00:13:02.040 Right inside the section.

00:13:03.040 But I'm seeing some –

00:13:03.980 But here's the thing.

00:13:05.760 With what's going on, this is – so, Blake, you and I did Chronicles of the Revolution last year, the podcast series,

00:13:13.880 which then we turned into the book Unhumans, The Secret History of Communist Revolutions and How to Crush Them.

00:13:20.620 And this is specifically the ideology that we wrote about in the book with – Joshua Lysette came in.

00:13:27.440 It was the co-author of it.

00:13:28.680 And we talked exactly about the ideology of communists and how this stuff spreads.

00:13:34.580 They take grievances, and then they decide that they can just kill, maim, steal anyone who is on the other side of the grievance, whether perceived or not.

00:13:45.840 Right?

00:13:46.000 So either a perceived false grievance or a real grievance.

00:13:49.180 And sure, these are real grievances.

00:13:50.460 I'm not saying they're not.

00:13:51.560 We've all had all sorts of issues with health insurance companies.

00:13:55.560 But that doesn't mean you can just pick up a gun and go start murdering people on the street.

00:13:59.540 And the problem is that when I see conservatives going in and saying, oh, yeah, you know, take it to the elites, you know, take it to the man, et cetera, guess what?

00:14:09.220 They view you as the man, too.

00:14:11.480 They view you and Donald Trump and your family and anyone else as this because they see you as unhuman.

00:14:18.540 They see you as an invasive species.

00:14:21.480 They see you as standing in the way of their utopia.

00:14:23.540 And ultimately, it's not about justice and social justice and equity and all these fancy window dressing words that they use to kind of, you know, church it up, to try to dress it up.

00:14:35.900 No, it's about envy.

00:14:37.780 It's about grievance.

00:14:39.040 It's about petty resentment and hatred.

00:14:42.000 And so rather than do something to fix the situation, they just want to rob, kill, and destroy.

00:14:48.720 And guess what?

00:14:49.820 If these things are allowed to continue, they will rob, kill, and destroy everyone until they are the only ones standing.

00:14:57.800 And, look, you know, I hate to say it, but, you know, we took a lot of crap when we put that book out.

00:15:03.800 And it did very, very well.

00:15:06.820 And, look, we saw this coming.

00:15:09.160 And it actually doesn't surprise me at all.

00:15:11.600 And Taylor Lorenz, by the way, is someone else who she posted a – I don't know what they call them on Blue Sky, but she posted a – made a post on Blue Sky where she was saying that, oh, and they wonder why we want to kill healthcare CEOs the day after, I guess the day of an assassination, cold blood like this.

00:15:31.600 And so people saying, well, wait a minute, isn't this Miss, you know, COVIDian Taylor Lorenz, and she's so, so worried about COVID, and she spent months planning this, like, book launch so it would be COVID-friendly and COVID-safe.

00:15:46.460 And they'll say, wait a minute, how could she be so worried about that and about getting one person sick, but she's totally cool with cold-blooded murder? 1.00

00:15:53.640 Again, it's because they don't view you as human.

00:15:58.480 They view you as something that is sub, something that is lesser, and they want you out of the way.

00:16:05.280 And their reasons for it at that point actually don't matter because they will condone any level of violence in order to achieve their ends.

00:16:13.920 It's all based in resentment.

00:16:15.940 And, by the way, it's the same thing that's been going back since the French Revolution.

00:16:19.120 Yeah, you mentioned the Taylor Lorenz thing.

00:16:24.380 I think we should highlight what she actually said since a lot of people can't actually see it.

00:16:28.820 So, like, first, right after this happened, there was a news story with a separate healthcare company, Blue Cross Blue Shield.

00:16:35.700 There was a dispute.

00:16:37.180 I don't know the full details on it, but I guess Blue Cross was saying they were not going to pay for, like, the full cost of anesthesia in some surgeries.

00:16:46.060 And they backtracked on this because there was a lot of backlash to it.

00:16:50.240 All I would say is I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out there's, like, scumbag doctors out there who keep you under too long because then they can bilk, insure.

00:16:59.680 There's a shocking amount of medical fraud in America.

00:17:02.860 But whatever that case, even if they're really bad.

00:17:05.000 And she replies to this.

00:17:06.020 This is right after the shooting.

00:17:06.900 And people wonder why we want these executives dead.

00:17:10.240 And then she does various tweets.

00:17:13.340 She, like, does all these various other posts on Blue Sky where someone said, like, you're posting your own sentiment.

00:17:22.140 She tries to backtrack later.

00:17:23.480 He says, don't backtrack.

00:17:25.260 People shouldn't celebrate murder.

00:17:27.040 And she replies, murder?

00:17:28.080 Like, what happens every year to thousands of innocent Americans killed by greedy insurance executives denying their coverage?

00:17:38.920 You should probably understand this because Taylor Lorenz is approximately your age, I believe.

00:17:43.240 She's somewhere between 18 and 50.

00:17:46.500 These people are the same people who say, eat the rich.

00:17:49.260 They've been saying this for many, many, many years.

00:17:52.360 And it's been subliminal.

00:17:54.060 This is absolutely subliminal.

00:17:55.700 So when you have that same mindset, that same campaign of attack the rich, eat the rich, despise those who make more, right, it's going to cause motivation.

00:18:07.880 And this is what we're seeing in New York.

00:18:09.600 This is what happened just a few days ago.

00:18:13.360 Yeah.

00:18:14.100 And you remember that movie Parasite?

00:18:19.020 Oh, the Korean movie?

00:18:20.500 Parasite, the Korean movie, years ago.

00:18:22.100 Yeah.

00:18:22.320 Yeah.

00:18:22.720 So that movie, and it won, like, Academy Award or something.

00:18:28.860 And that was a movie where the left was loving this thing.

00:18:32.700 They thought it was so wonderful.

00:18:34.100 It was like, oh, it's this great, you know, this great, you know, this great film, blah, blah, blah.

00:18:41.380 And that's exactly what it was about.

00:18:44.200 It was about a group of people who go to work for a family.

00:18:50.540 And, yeah, it won Best Picture at the Academy Award.

00:18:54.120 So it won the Oscar for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best International Feature Film.

00:19:00.220 It won a ton of things.

00:19:01.360 And it was the first non-English film to win the Best Picture at the Academy Award.

00:19:07.800 So the first foreign film to win a non-English foreign film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture, this movie Parasite.

00:19:16.860 And what was it about?

00:19:17.660 It was about a family that essentially hires, a rich family that hires a working-class family to go and work for them.

00:19:25.440 And the working-class family eventually just murders everyone in the rich family and ruins their lives. 1.00

00:19:31.600 And it's – the rich family doesn't actually do anything wrong to the working-class family, but we're told that, like, the working-class family are the heroes because they rose up and killed the rich people who, like, hired them.

00:19:47.800 And I remember sitting watching this movie getting all these accolades saying, what's going on?

00:19:51.820 Why are we supposed to hate these people who – okay, yeah, sure, maybe they have this privileged life in terms of wealth and in terms of how well they've done for themselves in their lives, and yet they don't really get into how hard they worked or any of the sacrifices they had to make to be able to get to that level, et cetera.

00:20:12.620 We're just told that you're supposed to hate them because they're rich, and therefore the working-class family is justified in killing the older – you know, the rich family because of the wealth disparity. 0.86

00:20:25.480 And it was crazy.

00:20:26.600 And this won the Academy Award literally, like, five years ago, and I remember sitting there watching this going, why is nobody else talking about – it's – you're right, it's this eat the rich mentality, and yet it's totally been mainstreamed.

00:20:39.640 Yeah, I mean, even – I'm looking at our comments on the stream, and, you know, we have purple daffodil saying it's like when people aren't sad when child murderers get murdered in prison.

00:20:51.900 Well, okay, but a guy who runs an insurance company is not a child murderer.

00:20:59.140 They are a person who runs a controversial business, and that may require a policy action.

00:21:05.940 But what I've been warning – because I've talked to people relatively on our side who didn't care about this, were blasé about it, thought, oh, it seems like this guy deserves it.

00:21:15.020 And all I have to say is the people who are defending this would defend any other, like, unfamous white guy CEO getting shot.

00:21:26.020 They would find a reason to justify it.

00:21:27.640 They'd say, he pays a low wage.

00:21:30.800 He doesn't pay workers enough.

00:21:32.600 There was a sexual harassment lawsuit at his company.

00:21:35.100 His company is racist.

00:21:36.200 They don't hire enough – they would find – he outsources to this or that country that's bad.

00:21:41.160 They would find a reason to hate this person because what this is really rooted in is a fundamental resentment.

00:21:49.280 They are – they're basically happy that a white male CEO got shot, and they would find a reason to celebrate this because white male not famous CEO is a Kulak class to reference that.

00:22:05.280 If you're familiar with it, the Kulaks were – we've talked about it on the show. 0.97

00:22:09.240 They were the targets of the Bolsheviks.

00:22:10.940 It was like the prosperous peasants of early Soviet Russia.

00:22:14.460 And that's kind of what the Antifa wing of America wants to expropriate. 0.98

00:22:23.360 And it's – they're not just focused on billionaires.

00:22:26.340 They're very much focused on anyone who owns a company, is the head of a company, is conventionally successful in America, who doesn't – who isn't entirely subsumed into this left-wing apparatus.

00:22:41.180 Purple Daffodil is fighting back.

00:22:44.520 He says it has nothing to do with him being a white male.

00:22:46.900 Well, yes, it does.

00:22:48.200 It absolutely does for a lot of them.

00:22:50.020 Maybe not you specifically, but for the bulk of people celebrating this, absolutely.

00:22:55.360 Absolutely.

00:22:56.900 And I'm not seeing the chat.

00:22:58.540 I don't have it up.

00:22:59.120 But look, here's the issue, right?

00:23:01.580 Is if you think, oh, it's not that big of a deal, you know, it was just this one guy.

00:23:06.020 Well, guess what?

00:23:07.200 Guess what?

00:23:07.720 If you don't crack down on things like this, guess who they're going to come for next, and they're going to keep going.

00:23:13.660 And then they'll go for – what else?

00:23:17.240 The Trump family?

00:23:18.280 They've already taken, what, two shots at Donald Trump or, you know, the guy who tried to over here in West Palm a couple of weeks.

00:23:24.800 Literally, a couple of weeks ago, Donald Trump almost was killed.

00:23:29.920 And then a couple of weeks before that, his head was almost blown off on stage.

00:23:34.320 Do you think, oh, he deserved that too?

00:23:36.660 No, you have to crack down on this stuff in every single instance that it takes place because if you ever open it up, it doesn't stop.

00:23:45.360 And you hear this all the time.

00:23:46.180 I hear people on the right, they say, oh, you know, like they'll say the Romanov family, well, they deserved it. 1.00

00:23:51.400 You know, they did World War I, and that was stupid. 0.86

00:23:53.640 And, you know, the Tsar was committing troops against the Kaiser, and it was, you know, it was just really bad.

00:23:59.500 And, you know, who cares?

00:24:00.960 And he forced people to be serfs, even though serfdom had actually already been outlawed at that point.

00:24:06.620 But they'll just go in on all this stuff, and we'll never actually consider the consequences of where it leads.

00:24:12.620 It always leads to piles of skulls.

00:24:16.060 And guess what?

00:24:16.980 You think, oh, I'm cool.

00:24:18.420 I supported it.

00:24:19.540 I went in on your little, you know, anti-elite venture.

00:24:22.520 Well, guess what?

00:24:23.240 That's not going to save you when you get lined up in the trench with your family and you get the bullet, you get the muzzle of the gun pointed at the back of your head.

00:24:32.560 Like, sorry, oh, well, you know, it's just another white CEO. 0.95

00:24:35.880 No, like, you really need to stop, and you really need to wake up and grow up right now because this stuff is incredibly serious.

00:24:47.720 Yeah, it's just – and another thing pointed out is just – someone says it's just surprising the guy didn't have security.

00:24:55.720 And I would like to fight back against that too.

00:24:58.940 I don't think we should consider it normal.

00:25:01.020 For everyone in America?

00:25:04.380 They did say apparently that there had been some, like – I don't know all the details yet because it's still shaking out.

00:25:10.300 We're in the fog of crime on this.

00:25:12.420 But they said that he did actually have home security because I think there had been some threatening messages or something that had come out.

00:25:21.560 And so he had home security, but for some reason they weren't with him at this hotel.

00:25:25.640 Even then, like, I just – I don't want us to turn into South Africa where every person who has a net worth over a million dollars needs, like, a special, dedicated, full-time private security person.

00:25:38.500 I think that's deranged.

00:25:40.280 I don't think that's a good way to live.

00:25:41.740 And as I've warned people, if that is the way of life people end up having to live in, that is what will make people pro-gun control.

00:25:47.500 If they feel I need to be armed at all times because it is, like, constant threat of violence against me, that is what is going to make people say, screw it, police state, like, take away everyone's guns.

00:26:00.360 Like, it's not good if tons of people are living in constant terror that they will be assassinated.

00:26:07.420 That is a path of – a path of decline.

00:26:12.740 I think we're all in agreement on this, but I would encourage everyone who's watching who disagrees to change their minds because we are correct.

00:26:21.620 What else are they saying?

00:26:22.640 What else are the disagreeers saying?

00:26:25.960 Oh, they're just going – yeah, I'm just – I like that we can respond to the comments today.

00:26:29.300 You know, obviously a lot of people are –

00:26:31.560 Yeah, we're live, by the way, so if you want to comment, please do.

00:26:35.100 Just a lot of people are saying insurers ruin people's lives.

00:26:38.820 What I will also say here – okay, I'm not – it feels awkward to do this, but within the grand scheme of the American healthcare system, insurers are the meat shield.

00:26:51.500 They exist to take the hate of everyone for a system that is created by a lot of people.

00:26:57.980 Like, hospitals inflate healthcare costs, doctors inflate healthcare costs, the government inflates healthcare costs, pharmaceutical companies inflate healthcare costs, everyone inflates healthcare costs.

00:27:10.440 And if you completely got rid of the cut taken by insurance companies, took them out of the picture, and we just imagined, oh, there was a 0% profit on all health insurance, and that was what it was, we would still have the most expensive healthcare system in the world.

00:27:26.040 And all those procedures that you want to get would still be monstrously expensive.

00:27:31.060 And it's not that healthcare insurance companies are always great, because they do have this sinister incentive to try to deny care when they can.

00:27:39.600 But the system itself is enormously messed up, and you would still be having to pay way too much for tons of procedures if the insurance companies didn't exist.

00:27:52.540 And I think people are afraid to confront this, because they want to imagine that the American healthcare system is easy to fix.

00:28:00.260 And unfortunately, it's such a calamity, that it is almost impossible to fix.

00:28:05.280 It would be like popping the world's largest tumor or something.

00:28:11.460 Can you pop a tumor? I don't know.

00:28:13.440 I guess I'll just say, look, you know, this came up when we were doing the Unhumans book so many times, and you see communists and far leftists using actual grievances over and over in order to fuel this type of revolutionary violence.

00:28:30.820 And unfortunately, you get a lot of people who will start saying, oh, well, he deserved it, and, you know, don't worry that it's happening to that guy.

00:28:39.140 And, you know, I see people in the chat right now saying, you know, it's, you know, it's their fault, you know, they chose to be victims.

00:28:46.100 Someone is saying people are treated badly, and it shouldn't have happened, you know, he shouldn't have done that.

00:28:51.860 Let's see, you know, the corruption, helplessness.

00:28:54.320 Look, look, look, number one, number one, it is, it is, it is absolutely sinful.

00:28:59.620 It is completely sinful, it is a direct violation of the Ten Commandments, and it's unquestionably, unquestionably breaking one of God's commandments to do this type of activity, as is all communism, by the way.

00:29:14.200 Then, when you go beyond that, if you're condoning it, that means you're actually condoning the breaking of a commandment.

00:29:20.080 So it's completely anti-Christian to support any of this type of activity. 0.52

00:29:24.020 That's a huge, just basic, like, one-on-one level thing.

00:29:27.780 Number two, though, for people to say, okay, this is legitimate grievance, it is.

00:29:32.460 And that's why you have to, as a government, you have to come in and find ways to meet that grievance, find some kind of compromise to break, bring down whatever.

00:29:43.480 Look, we didn't have a revolution in the United States when there were communist revolutions all over the world.

00:29:47.980 Why?

00:29:48.400 Because the government did come in and institute reforms for the working class.

00:29:52.960 They introduced the weekend.

00:29:54.400 They introduced the 40-hour work week.

00:29:56.100 There were so many things, fringe benefits, which became benefits, of which, by the way, health insurance was one of the things that was interesting.

00:30:06.760 I mean, Blake, from a historical perspective, you're talking about insurance companies.

00:30:10.240 The idea that your job gave you insurance is actually, like, in the grand scheme of things, a fairly new type of just facet of having employment because this was never originally considered something, you know, a job was, here's your wage and have fun.

00:30:26.780 You know, go to the hospital if there's some issue with you.

00:30:29.060 So, you know, even that, the whole system of health insurance and tying of that to the employment system was something that was brought in as one of these compromises, historically speaking, you know, going back about 100 years ago or 80 years ago in, you know, the progressive era and then in the 1930s as well.

00:30:49.060 And, again, I'm not defending any of it, obviously.

00:30:52.040 Like, I stand for all sorts of government reform.

00:30:54.420 Look what we just spent the entire last year doing, you know.

00:30:57.600 This is the populist movement after all.

00:31:00.140 But I'm saying, what I'm very, very emphatically saying is you cannot condone wanton leftist revolutionary violence, which is what it does seem like this was.

00:31:09.960 Yeah, in the end, chaotic violence always favors the left.

00:31:17.840 There is a reason the left has used it throughout its entire history.

00:31:22.980 Jack, you want to read our ad?

00:31:26.460 Yes, I do.

00:31:27.380 I do.

00:31:27.780 This is a great discussion, though.

00:31:29.080 This is really, really good.

00:31:32.060 You know, I got to say, folks, they say evolution has gone soft, that men have traded their strength for comfort.

00:31:38.900 But it's not about to let your instincts go dull.

00:31:43.160 It's time to fuel up with something raw, real, and primal, talking about naked organs.

00:31:48.160 We're talking pure bison liver, kidney, heart, and testicles, some of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet.

00:31:54.820 Bison liver alone packs up to three times more vitamin A than muscle meat, along with high levels of vitamin B12, iron, and folate, all essential for energy, immune health, and keeping you sharp.

00:32:05.980 And the best part, you get all these powerhouse nutrients in a form that's easy to take, no raw organs required.

00:32:19.760 Time to silence the noise, reclaim your power, and get back to being unstoppable.

00:32:24.340 That's benaked.com, promo code FOLK.

00:32:26.980 So, we could keep on this, Jack, or we could go to one of the second topics.

00:32:32.660 We could talk about what we want to do on day one of Doge, or we could talk about Bitcoin hitting $100,000.

00:32:39.740 Oh my gosh, look at this.

00:32:40.720 It's not a thought crime to not be sad when evil people are murdered.

00:32:47.040 Oh my gosh, look at this.

00:32:49.240 Look at this.

00:32:50.040 I'm not defending a murder, but this is like a revolt in the chat.

00:32:58.220 You know, the chat's like rising up against us.

00:33:01.140 It's thought crime versus the thought chat.

00:33:03.660 Oh man, I've got people are sharing their stories, which I don't want to discount any of those things.

00:33:09.960 He's saying, insurance refused, Texas Cat 117, he's saying, insurance refused $3,000 of anesthesia on his knee.

00:33:20.520 I refused after paying $20,000 in premium and deductible.

00:33:25.160 It's a scam or a crime.

00:33:28.140 And I think, you know, big picture what you can say is, it's definitely worrisome whenever you have a system

00:33:34.820 that is making a lot of people defend violent murders.

00:33:38.720 And it's sort of, it's what Tucker would say on his show.

00:33:42.860 He would talk a lot about, and in his book, Ship of Fools, he would say, you have, you know,

00:33:48.480 as a leader, you have a responsibility to not let the system go until it sparks a revolution.

00:33:53.980 And so we've very much said our piece on that murder is bad.

00:34:00.220 But you definitely have to think it is a red flag if there are all these people online who are celebrating it

00:34:07.040 or defending it or justifying it or at least indifferent to it.

00:34:12.680 For me, this goes back to, I was talking to Matthew before.

00:34:15.900 He had never heard of Occupy Wall Street, Jack.

00:34:18.780 I had to look it up.

00:34:19.760 He had to look up what Occupy Wall Street was.

00:34:22.460 Oh, man.

00:34:23.360 No, granted, I was in elementary school when this was going on.

00:34:27.360 I was in elementary school.

00:34:28.940 I didn't watch the news.

00:34:30.720 Wait, wait, wait.

00:34:31.300 I watched the news when I was in elementary school.

00:34:33.200 I always do this when someone says, so have you heard of Star Wars?

00:34:36.860 Yeah, of course.

00:34:38.900 All right, see where you're going.

00:34:40.100 And how old were you when Star Wars came out?

00:34:41.880 I wasn't even, I wasn't born.

00:34:43.520 I wasn't born.

00:34:44.500 I mean, it depends on what episode.

00:34:46.000 So that's not actually an argument.

00:34:46.760 Okay, go ahead.

00:34:47.280 But yeah, so you do have, this is what I, this, so the thing about Occupy Wall Street

00:34:55.900 was, it was very cringe.

00:34:58.020 It was very bad.

00:34:58.820 It actually was a proto element for so many very annoying things in what would be the politics

00:35:04.340 of the 2010s.

00:35:06.100 But it was also just an ominous sign generally for America that you have this level of like 0.90

00:35:12.840 populist anger against a relative engine of American prosperity.

00:35:18.640 And similar to that, like the anger at the American health insurance system is not just,

00:35:25.600 it'd be one thing if it was just a threat to the healthcare system, which is frankly

00:35:29.060 mostly bad, I think.

00:35:30.820 But I think it's the sort of thing that if it, if it's not ultimately solved, it will

00:35:35.840 be what justifies just abolishing everything that makes America successful.

00:35:39.760 Like healthcare is their Trojan horse to just say, we're going to do socialism on the entire

00:35:45.000 economy.

00:35:45.620 We're going to do leveling on the entire economy.

00:35:49.160 We're going to go full Bernie Sanders, full AOC, full Green New Deal.

00:35:54.800 And the justification is going to be that your health insurance company sometimes, you know,

00:35:59.980 screwed you on fees. 0.87

00:36:02.700 And it does, there is this nihilist impulse that we, that we do have to worry about.

00:36:10.420 So what was the goal of the Occupy Wall Street?

00:36:14.000 That's a good question.

00:36:15.000 We never found out.

00:36:16.060 Really?

00:36:16.400 That was part of the gimmick of it was they showed up in Wall Street.

00:36:19.860 This was, they'd say, they would say, what is our one demand?

00:36:22.600 And they didn't know.

00:36:23.220 The idea was they would gather in their sort of populist commune in Zuccotti Park, and

00:36:29.380 then they would decide what their one demand would be.

00:36:31.760 And they didn't get around to figuring it out before they sent in the police and cleared

00:36:34.780 them out.

00:36:35.060 It was all a very entertaining spectacle, which I remember because I was in college

00:36:39.680 when it happened and you were in the third grade or something.

00:36:44.380 Somewhere around there.

00:36:45.120 Yeah.

00:36:45.260 You know, I wasn't, oh, you were in fifth grade.

00:36:47.240 I was in fifth grade when 9-11 happened.

00:36:49.020 I noticed 9-11.

00:36:50.220 I'm just, I'm just saying.

00:36:51.800 You know, that's what separates.

00:36:52.680 I'll tell you one, though.

00:36:54.240 I was, so, obviously a little bit older than that, but I was alive for the LA riots, and

00:37:03.760 I would have been, I guess, in second or third grade.

00:37:07.560 And I didn't know anything about them until, no, keep in mind, this is pre-internet era,

00:37:12.600 so it was hard to kind of, like, know about history unless you, you know, had books or

00:37:17.060 listened to conservative talk radio.

00:37:20.120 This is why, by the way, the conservative talk radio was so subversive, because they

00:37:24.240 would just simply bring up things that you wouldn't hear anywhere else.

00:37:27.420 And we still have that, but it's way more prevalent because of social media, that back

00:37:32.280 at the time, you know, there were no alternative forms of media that you would ever hear any of

00:37:37.820 this stuff.

00:37:38.400 And pre-internet, it was very hard.

00:37:40.900 So I had never heard of the LA riots until I was, like, in college.

00:37:45.500 I want to say until, yeah, it was definitely until I was in college that I'd heard about

00:37:48.500 it.

00:37:49.100 And I was like, I can't believe this all happened when I was a kid, and I had no idea that it

00:37:53.780 even took place.

00:37:56.960 Let's see.

00:37:57.680 Have the masses yelled at us further?

00:38:01.760 So do people understand what we're saying?

00:38:05.080 Do people understand what we're saying is, we agree.

00:38:07.580 We totally agree that there are actual issues with the health care system.

00:38:13.620 I'm not defending the health care system.

00:38:15.180 I'm not defending rich people, but I'm not defending, like, any of those things necessarily.

00:38:19.240 But I am, number one, saying that you can't just hate someone for being rich.

00:38:23.380 And number two, I'm also saying that you can't just live.

00:38:27.560 You can't just live in a society where you go in to wanton mass murder like this of people

00:38:35.300 who are in cold blood, because that is the path to absolute societal destruction.

00:38:42.960 It is absolute societal destruction to continue down one of these paths.

00:38:47.060 Spanish Civil War.

00:38:48.900 In the Spanish Civil War, when the revolutionaries got power, they killed 10% of the clergy.

00:38:53.900 10% of the priests and nuns in the entire country of Spain were murdered in the Spanish

00:38:59.980 Civil War when the communists took over.

00:39:02.340 So again, guys, this is where that stuff goes.

00:39:04.620 It's Bolshevism. 0.82

00:39:05.820 It's Chairman Mao.

00:39:07.000 It's the Red Guards.

00:39:08.580 And this is what they do.

00:39:10.120 This was the metronym in our book.

00:39:13.300 This is what they do.

00:39:14.460 They find someone who is an unsympathetic target, and they say, oh, we're just going to go after

00:39:20.160 them.

00:39:20.640 We're just going to do this.

00:39:21.960 But again, we're not going to use prosecution.

00:39:24.520 We're not going to use FBI.

00:39:25.640 By the way, Blake and Matthew, how funny is it, how ironic is it that the same people

00:39:30.060 who say, oh, well, we can't let Kash Patel conduct an investigation into people who have

00:39:38.000 committed government wrongdoing, but oh, it's totally fine to just go and murder somebody

00:39:42.440 on the street.

00:39:43.380 Yeah, yeah.

00:39:43.720 That's very much a real thing.

00:39:45.180 The same people who will attack any organized use of justice that might be reasonable, that

00:39:50.600 might be under control, are the ones, they will celebrate any unhinged form of violence,

00:39:58.220 chaotic form of violence.

00:40:00.180 The left is fundamentally the party of entropy.

00:40:03.660 They benefit from chaos.

00:40:06.240 That's why 2020 worked the way it did, that you would just start tearing away elements

00:40:10.840 of civilization and let people just go maximal, primal, destructive urges.

00:40:15.740 And then they torch Minneapolis.

00:40:17.760 They torch DC.

00:40:18.920 They torch America itself.

00:40:22.500 This is right from the prince.

00:40:24.840 Machiavelli writes, in order for you to be the prince or the ruler,

00:40:28.220 you need to first burn the farms and then be the hero of the farms.

00:40:31.620 This is exactly what we're seeing on the ground.

00:40:34.240 We're seeing these, and you saw this in the BLM riots.

00:40:36.840 You saw this with even the LA riots, right?

00:40:40.560 I know that was before me, but I did do my research, right?

00:40:43.600 That's where we get the, going back to the Korean stuff. 0.59

00:40:45.840 Have you heard of the LA riots?

00:40:48.460 Yeah, I have.

00:40:49.680 I have.

00:40:50.180 Okay.

00:40:50.640 I mean, we're being careful.

00:40:52.140 I've read a few books.

00:40:53.160 Let's just win the election.

00:40:54.720 Did you know we had elections before you were born?

00:40:57.640 You're telling me now for the very first time.

00:40:59.760 Right.

00:41:00.120 But going back to Machiavelli, he writes this, right?

00:41:03.980 And we saw this in Minneapolis.

00:41:05.500 You mentioned this, right?

00:41:06.760 Where they started rioting.

00:41:08.860 They burned down their cities.

00:41:10.340 And it just so happened that the social justice warriors of the BLM movement were also the heroes in that situation.

00:41:18.380 This is straight from their playbook.

00:41:20.220 This happens time after time.

00:41:22.440 But we have to be aware.

00:41:24.160 I mean, this goes back to George.

00:41:26.060 Sorry, go ahead.

00:41:26.900 We have a guy in the comments, Mel 6591, says he was there at the Watts riots.

00:41:32.540 Wow.

00:41:33.660 Watts, man.

00:41:34.880 One, that's a historically important riot.

00:41:37.160 And two, that was a while ago.

00:41:40.200 God bless you, Mel.

00:41:41.220 The peaceful 60s, right?

00:41:44.060 The peaceful and the nonviolent 60s.

00:41:45.860 Mostly peaceful.

00:41:46.700 Mostly peaceful, I imagine.

00:41:48.420 The nonviolent movement of the 1960s.

00:41:50.480 And you say, what about all this violence?

00:41:52.280 No, no, no, no, no.

00:41:53.180 That violence is separate.

00:41:54.360 Those riots, the Watts riots or the Newark riots where they had snipers on the roof shooting people at random.

00:42:01.320 I mean, for people who think that it's okay to condone something like this, I'm just going to say, you know, again and again, this is, it leads to, again, we wrote a whole book about it.

00:42:12.560 You know, it's Christmastime.

00:42:13.640 So, you know, on humansbook.com, go check it out.

00:42:16.960 Go read the book.

00:42:17.700 And you will see, you will see that any time, you know, look at this, you're, oh, look at that.

00:42:23.340 You're defending greed.

00:42:25.300 You are defending greed, right?

00:42:28.200 No, we're actually opposing murder and we're opposing chaos and we're opposing communism.

00:42:34.060 It's possible to oppose greed without just murdering people wantonly in the streets, as it turns out.

00:42:41.060 In fact, I don't recall any time where Jesus called for us to just go and rise up and start murdering people for being greedy.

00:42:50.860 In fact, no, he requires us to go and try to pray for them, to try to work on them, to convert them, to get them to see the error of their ways.

00:43:00.140 Yeah, maybe drive them out of the temple or something like that.

00:43:02.560 But you'd be hard-pressed to find any example of Jesus Christ condoning murder anywhere in the New Testament.

00:43:10.020 It is simply, again, it's just completely un-Christian. 1.00

00:43:13.700 It is, in fact, the antithesis of Christianity. 0.68

00:43:17.940 Amen, amen.

00:43:19.240 Do we have anything else we want to say on this?

00:43:20.840 Do we want to go around the horn on Doge or on Bitcoin?

00:43:25.120 I think we have 12 minutes left before Jack has to evacuate by helicopter.

00:43:30.280 I do, yeah.

00:43:32.560 What do you prefer, Jack?

00:43:33.860 You get to pick.

00:43:35.260 Or you can pick something entirely unrelated.

00:43:37.360 Or we can just keep arguing with the thought crime chat.

00:43:42.060 I love this.

00:43:43.460 The chat's going, man.

00:43:44.800 The chat is going.

00:43:45.680 Look at this.

00:43:46.680 Read about the French Revolution, the murder of the Hawkeye 102.

00:43:50.260 Read about the French Revolution, murder of aristocrats.

00:43:52.980 Some of them for themselves was conducted gleefully.

00:43:55.660 Yeah.

00:43:56.380 Blake, you know, that's for anyone who wants to read more.

00:43:58.780 The book is Unhumans.

00:44:00.060 Or you could go, Blake and I did a whole podcast series on this right around this time last

00:44:04.800 year regarding, and we had a whole episode on the French Revolution.

00:44:08.500 And it was horrific.

00:44:09.620 The French Revolution and the reign of terror of Robespierre, when the Jacobin Club basically 0.63

00:44:17.360 took power of the state there, it didn't end with King Louis and Marie Antoinette.

00:44:22.920 Remember, by the way, Marie Antoinette was murdered simply for being married to the king.

00:44:27.940 And he was killed for the crime of being the king.

00:44:31.300 They decided that to be the king was a betrayal of the French people, and therefore he was murdered

00:44:36.280 for being the king.

00:44:37.460 And she was murdered for participating in that by being married to the king. 0.98

00:44:41.060 And no, the quote about let them eat cake was never actually uttered by her.

00:44:46.580 It was uttered by her opponents.

00:44:48.560 And this kept going.

00:44:49.620 The guillotine kept swinging down until the very last one was the nun, the Sisters of 0.99

00:44:55.660 Coppignan, this group of, I think, 12 nuns who lived in a cloister who refused to renounce

00:45:02.820 their vows, and even they were executed right in the center of Paris, where, by the way,

00:45:08.780 President Trump is going to be traveling this weekend, because that's another example of

00:45:13.440 the French Revolution, by the way, because the Notre Dame Cathedral was, yeah, we know

00:45:18.260 it was burned in 2019, but did you know that it was also raised during the French Revolution?

00:45:24.560 And the 12 statues on the facade of it, the 12 kings of Israel were smashed by the revolutionaries,

00:45:31.600 the stained glass windows, many of them were smashed as well.

00:45:35.280 And in fact, the cathedral itself was deconsecrated, and it was turned into a temple of reason by

00:45:44.260 the cult of reason, the sort of atheist, science-based ideology.

00:45:49.400 But, you know, that doesn't sound like anything that's going on anywhere today, right, guys?

00:45:54.940 Jack, we have a very important counterpoint that was brought up by someone in the chat.

00:45:59.580 That individual thinker mentions, why is it illegal to fly over North Pole or to go to

00:46:06.600 Antarctica?

00:46:09.600 What do you have to say to that, Jack?

00:46:12.580 Look, I'm just going to say, if there's any Santa deniers that want to step to me in the

00:46:16.700 next 20 days, you're going to get the horns, right?

00:46:20.040 There will be no Santa denial going on.

00:46:22.420 It is illegal to fly over the North Pole specifically, and Antarctica, which of course is part of its

00:46:27.480 flight route, because you would be disrupting Santa Claus and his North Pole Christmastime

00:46:32.720 operations.

00:46:33.720 And if you were to do so, then in that case, you know, I would support prosecution, absolutely,

00:46:38.800 and incarceration.

00:46:40.060 Yeah.

00:46:40.660 People, people are turning, you know younger people, they aren't denying Santa over there,

00:46:44.660 are they?

00:46:45.680 There are a few, unfortunately.

00:46:47.380 There are a few.

00:46:48.300 We need to talk to Tyler about this.

00:46:50.840 This is a big problem.

00:46:51.620 I brought this, this is actually a question that I've been asking candidates who come

00:46:56.360 in through the transition process for the Trump administration.

00:47:00.260 You know, what are your, what are your thoughts on Santa Claus and Santa deniers straight, straight

00:47:05.400 out the door, straight out the door.

00:47:07.400 And it's, it's a great limits test.

00:47:08.700 Just out, get them all out.

00:47:10.580 Yeah.

00:47:10.740 Out the door, out the, out the sleigh.

00:47:13.000 Like they might, you know.

00:47:15.180 I think Buddy the Elf said it the best.

00:47:17.160 The best way to spread the Christmas cheer is to sing out loud for all to hear.

00:47:20.740 Yeah, exactly.

00:47:21.320 I actually only saw that movie for the first time recently.

00:47:23.760 No way.

00:47:24.060 But apparently it's like a big Christmas canon film.

00:47:25.740 Wait, I'm the same way, actually.

00:47:26.840 I saw it for the first time last year.

00:47:30.140 It's, is that the most recent Christmas movie that's like a canonical Christmas movie?

00:47:35.060 Do you think, do you like Home Alone?

00:47:37.600 Let's say that Home Alone won.

00:47:38.720 Home Alone is my personal favorite.

00:47:41.000 Or Elf.

00:47:41.600 Yeah, Home Alone's great.

00:47:42.640 Home Alone's great.

00:47:43.240 Home Alone's definitely better than Elf.

00:47:44.740 Really?

00:47:45.080 Well, Elf, Elf is cute, but.

00:47:46.480 Oh yeah, 100%.

00:47:47.300 I like Elf.

00:47:48.100 Home Alone has a lot of, has a lot of emotional oomph to it.

00:47:51.540 You got President Trump in on the Elf.

00:47:53.980 By the way, my kids, my kids like Home Alone better too.

00:47:58.280 Yeah.

00:47:59.020 The Wet Bandits would support CEO assassination.

00:48:02.200 That's what our audience should keep in mind.

00:48:04.180 And Sticky Bandits will do.

00:48:06.380 Ooh, people are, people are voting Elf in the chat.

00:48:08.700 I'm a little surprised.

00:48:10.040 I think Home Alone's really good.

00:48:11.960 I don't feel like, I don't feel like Elf has anything comparable.

00:48:15.100 It's so huge, I'm sorry, no, no.

00:48:17.560 Yeah, and like meeting, you know, meeting the dad who's estranged from his son in the

00:48:21.660 church, I don't think Elf has anything quite like that.

00:48:24.820 By the way, Home Alone also is one of the last movies that you can see, not, maybe not

00:48:30.660 last, but it certainly is towards the end of movies that were huge tentpole mainstream

00:48:37.600 movies that feature scenes inside a church and nativity scenes.

00:48:42.380 And these were just inserted into movies that were non, you know, non-religious movies.

00:48:48.580 But the idea that a main character or a whole subplot, there's a whole subplot that revolves

00:48:54.140 around the next door neighbor going to see his granddaughter who's estranged and, well,

00:48:58.940 the son is estranged and he wants to go see her at the church and he goes there.

00:49:02.240 And this is just something that's been totally excised from all of mainstream media, particularly

00:49:10.140 Hollywood media, the idea of a character just going to church on a regular basis.

00:49:15.340 And don't tell me for a second that that hasn't had an effect on the broader society, because

00:49:19.900 I absolutely believe that it has.

00:49:22.580 Absolutely, absolutely.

00:49:24.160 And John Hughes was just a great American.

00:49:26.760 I think he's not, he's not fully appreciated for that.

00:49:30.380 Just being like an earnest pro-American, like pro all of the good things in America, you

00:49:38.440 know, civic Christianity, patriotism.

00:49:41.960 I will never forget how in Uncle Buck, you can tell that Uncle Buck is a somewhat disreputable

00:49:48.200 character because he comes home and he has a bag that's for the Chicago Democratic Party.

00:49:53.020 That's how you know, not everything is quite right with him.

00:49:58.640 Great guy, recommend all of his movies.

00:50:01.300 But yeah, Home Alone is my, is probably my personal favorite.

00:50:04.480 Obviously there's the old classics.

00:50:06.340 You'll see people say Christmas Story a lot.

00:50:08.400 I think I'm a bit over a Christmas Story.

00:50:10.440 That might be because it's on 24 hours a day, every Christmas.

00:50:15.200 I love a Christmas Story.

00:50:16.060 That just gets really tedious after the third or fourth time.

00:50:18.680 They did a sequel to it.

00:50:20.300 They did a sequel where Ralphie is, um, is grown up and, and it's, it's, so he's the

00:50:26.100 dad and then it's with his kids and almost the entire cast returns, at least the surviving

00:50:30.960 cast.

00:50:31.780 And, uh, they actually, it, it, for movies like that, which are usually horrible, this

00:50:36.580 one was actually pretty good.

00:50:38.500 Does your generation still watch a Christmas Story?

00:50:40.860 Yeah.

00:50:41.280 Yeah.

00:50:41.480 Okay.

00:50:41.680 Oh yeah, absolutely.

00:50:42.500 That's a Christmas classic.

00:50:43.840 I was glad you weren't going, I've never heard of that one.

00:50:47.020 No, my generation.

00:50:47.700 It's a movie.

00:50:48.220 I think it's hilarious.

00:50:49.860 I think it's so funny.

00:50:51.620 Is there any like new Christmas movie that I'm, is there something like that's come out

00:50:54.600 in the last 10 years that young people like?

00:50:57.100 It's all secular, unfortunately.

00:50:59.140 All the new Christmas movies.

00:51:01.320 Right.

00:51:01.660 But the classics at least have that, the Christ element to things.

00:51:07.340 They actually talk about what, why we celebrate Christmas, the purpose of it.

00:51:12.240 Yeah.

00:51:12.500 Right.

00:51:14.440 Ah, man.

00:51:15.720 And just, just remember guys, we're getting, Polar Express, Polar Express, kind of tried.

00:51:22.040 That one was a little weird.

00:51:23.560 That was like, I'm looking at, I'm looking at Christmas movies now.

00:51:26.260 Actually for anyone who's got kids or grandkids, there is a movie that came out.

00:51:29.940 Yeah.

00:51:30.000 I just found this for my kids a couple of years ago.

00:51:33.120 Um, it is an animated film and it's called The Star and the main character is the donkey

00:51:42.340 from the actual, uh, nativity story.

00:51:46.040 So it's the donkey that Mary rides on to Bethlehem. 0.58

00:51:49.820 And it's this animated film of the, the nativity story, but told from the perspective of the animals.

00:51:56.800 And so it's like, it's kind of cool and it's great for little kids and it's just really well done.

00:52:02.880 It's obviously full on Christian and it's, it's got a really randomly incredible cast.

00:52:08.720 It's got like Kelly Clarkson, Keegan, Michael Key is in there from like, uh, uh, uh, uh, Jordan Peele and, uh, who else?

00:52:20.360 Um, Zachary Levi is in there who, by the way, just recently came out as a big Trump supporter.

00:52:25.320 Um, Chris Christopherson is in there.

00:52:27.240 Mariah Carey's in there.

00:52:28.500 Tyler, Tyler Perry, even Oprah is in there.

00:52:31.520 So it's, it's just, uh, Kristen Chenoweth from the original Wicked.

00:52:35.620 It's, it's so bizarre that this movie came out and is like unapologetically Christian and it has a really strong Hollywood cast.

00:52:44.580 And it's, it's just a great movie.

00:52:46.680 So we have all of the people now we're going to end up closing this.

00:52:50.880 We have all the people in the comments are saying that Die Hard is a Christmas movie.

00:52:54.960 Did we debate this a week or two ago?

00:52:57.160 I don't want to rehash it if we do.

00:52:58.880 No, no, we mentioned it and look, it's, I mean, it's very played out as a meme.

00:53:05.200 Like it's, it's definitely a dead meme.

00:53:07.440 Um, it's, it's like very 2018 and honestly, it's like, it's just something that it's, it's, it's like, I don't know.

00:53:15.660 Like some people have found it recently and they're like, Oh yeah, it's so cool.

00:53:19.320 It was, it was funny.

00:53:20.440 Like the first time someone said like, actually Die Hard is a Christmas movie.

00:53:23.740 And you're like, Oh, it takes place on Christmas.

00:53:25.260 But, but no, it is not, it is not a Christmas movie.

00:53:28.520 It is a movie that takes place.

00:53:30.160 No, it's really not.

00:53:31.360 Important distinction.

00:53:33.700 It is.

00:53:34.160 It didn't come out.

00:53:35.260 It didn't come out during Christmas.

00:53:38.640 It doesn't have important Christmas themes.

00:53:42.300 It's just a movie where Christmas is occurring in the background.

00:53:45.320 Like it's just exciting.

00:53:46.560 That's, that's why there's a party at the building.

00:53:48.860 That's the only reason for it.

00:53:50.260 And then they play like, you know, let it snow at the end.

00:53:52.880 Cause it's funny.

00:53:53.460 It could be, it could be at any other time of year and still be the same exact story.

00:53:58.300 And therefore it is, it doesn't pass the Christmas, uh, the Christmas text.

00:54:03.360 Related to that.

00:54:04.440 Uh, are, are we all taking part in Whamageddon this year?

00:54:09.020 Whamageddon.

00:54:09.900 Whamageddon is where you try to go all of December without hearing the song last Christmas by Wham,

00:54:14.800 which is a useful thing to do because last Christmas isn't a Christmas song.

00:54:21.620 You could just change this, every use of the word Christmas in that song to Tuesday.

00:54:26.400 It's just, you could just change the word Christmas to Tuesday and it would be the same song.

00:54:29.760 Like last Tuesday, I gave you my heart.

00:54:31.500 And then the next day you gave it away.

00:54:32.700 Same thing.

00:54:33.200 But it has no Christmas themes, no Christmas stuff at all.

00:54:36.780 No, it's a Christmas song because number one, it has the word Christmas in there.

00:54:42.960 And as a song, it is evoking the emotion of Christmas.

00:54:47.740 Christmas is an incredibly emotional time.

00:54:50.500 And so, you know, last Christmas I gave you, I gave you my heart for Christmas.

00:54:55.220 That is the giving of gifts, gift giving, of course, an important Christian tradition to celebrate the birth of Christ.

00:55:03.520 So the very next day they gave it away, which means they gave it away on Boxing Day.

00:55:08.720 Is it an anti-boxing day song?

00:55:10.960 Well, they were British, right? 0.71

00:55:12.240 So it wasn't, George Michael's British, so I don't know if that's a British-Canadian.

00:55:16.320 It's Australian.

00:55:17.960 Boxing Day is Australian.

00:55:19.140 And British.

00:55:19.840 British definitely has Boxing Day, too.

00:55:20.780 Canada, too?

00:55:21.640 I think all of the, like, limey countries have.

00:55:24.100 It was like a common, well, there you go.

00:55:28.020 There is a line in here that says, Happy Christmas.

00:55:31.160 Happy Christmas?

00:55:31.960 Yeah, Happy Christmas.

00:55:32.800 Not Merry Christmas, but Happy Christmas.

00:55:34.840 Okay, that's definitely pretty British.

00:55:36.180 So here's, so the one interesting thing for me when it comes to the diehard debate is, so, you know, I was getting way down the weeds on this a couple years ago.

00:55:49.900 And I was saying, look, it's not central to the plot.

00:55:52.520 And it has all, you know, it's just right there.

00:55:54.420 It just happens to take place around Christmas.

00:55:56.480 And then someone threw back at me.

00:55:58.320 They said, well, what about the movie White Christmas, then?

00:56:01.160 Wouldn't the movie White Christmas also not actually fall into that as well?

00:56:07.440 Because it has to do with a, you know, hotel and some veterans, some World War, or excuse me, yeah, World War II veterans.

00:56:15.780 And, you know, all of this.

00:56:18.300 World War II or is it Korean War?

00:56:20.760 What year was it?

00:56:21.900 50 to 53.

00:56:23.200 Yeah, but it's when the movie was set.

00:56:29.540 Oh, that I don't know.

00:56:30.620 That I don't know.

00:56:32.080 Anyway, point being is, you know, does that actually constitute a Christmas movie by that same test?

00:56:43.560 Yeah, you know, I know you have a hard out here, Jack.

00:56:47.020 I want to just...

00:56:48.460 Yeah, I just want to say, Michael says, yeah.

00:56:51.660 Michael says, apparently, the hip new Christmas movie is Violent Night, which is John Wick with Santa.

00:57:00.240 And the theme is getting home for Christmas.

00:57:02.580 I haven't seen it.

00:57:03.700 I haven't seen that either.

00:57:05.080 I worry that after what we just said, it might be against the spirit of Christmas to watch and to watch a Christmas movie about that.

00:57:12.960 Yeah, there's a bunch of these, like, I do watch, like, I watch the new crop of Christmas movies every year.

00:57:20.900 And just because there are popular Christmas movies that come out that don't necessarily make them, as you say, canonical Christmas movies.

00:57:28.120 It's a Wonderful Life.

00:57:29.240 Like, that will be watched every year in my house.

00:57:31.940 There's no question.

00:57:32.920 It is, in my mind, by far, the best Christmas movie.

00:57:38.940 And really, really strikes a heart of what we were talking about earlier.

00:57:42.760 You know, by the way, I will also point out that in It's a Wonderful Life, oh, here we go.

00:57:48.460 Like, I just figured it out.

00:57:49.540 This is how I'm going to tie together the whole thing.

00:57:51.620 In It's a Wonderful Life, well, why doesn't Jimmy Stewart, why doesn't George Bailey just murder Mr. Potter?

00:57:57.280 Why doesn't he just shoot him in the street?

00:57:59.060 Yeah, he's an exploitative, yeah.

00:58:00.760 Why doesn't he just take that wheelchair and push him off the bridge into the water? 1.00

00:58:04.240 Wouldn't Clarence the Angel love that?

00:58:06.460 Yeah, that's a good point, Jack.

00:58:08.680 Would you want Billy to do that?

00:58:11.200 He would be screwed in England.

00:58:12.840 Yeah, I bet he exploited at least as many people as the UnitedHealthcare allegedly possibly did.

00:58:19.680 Well, it was like one of the movies that he was exploiting.

00:58:21.640 And he was taking people's houses away.

00:58:23.280 And he was, you know, foreclosing.

00:58:24.700 And then he was turning them all.

00:58:25.940 And then, by the way, in the dystopian version, of course, he turned the entire place into what?

00:58:31.500 Gambling, drugs, alcohol, sex.

00:58:35.800 And in the dystopian version, I'll never forget this, that Mary, who I believe is, I guess, you know, in her, like, 30s, right?

00:58:47.080 If you understand, Blake, you know where I'm going with this.

00:58:49.580 Mary is in her 30s in the dystopian version.

00:58:52.940 And he says, where's Mary, Clarence?

00:58:55.300 Where's Mary? 0.99

00:58:56.120 Show me Mary!

00:58:57.540 And he goes, no, George, you don't want to see that.

00:59:00.280 She's closing up the library, George.

00:59:02.100 She never married.

00:59:03.100 She's a spinster. 1.00

00:59:04.480 She's a spinster, George.

00:59:05.380 She's a cat lady, George. 0.99

00:59:08.200 She's an unmarried cat lady. 0.94

00:59:10.040 He goes, what?

00:59:11.320 No!

00:59:11.700 And this is what causes him to psychologically break.

00:59:15.520 Like, his brother being dead didn't shatter him.

00:59:18.780 His town looking like it's, you know, 2024 America didn't shatter him.

00:59:24.360 And the ship.

00:59:25.360 The old maid. 0.67

00:59:26.060 The ship that his brother saved in the war, all the sailors were killed.

00:59:31.020 None of that mattered nearly as much as his wife becoming a cat lady.

00:59:34.480 That's Mary being a cat lady at a library. 0.99

00:59:37.040 And by the way, so in the 1940s when that movie came out, everyone understood that there was something wrong with that.

00:59:44.520 And that should not happen.

00:59:46.080 Okay, now we're getting in real trouble right now.

00:59:47.800 But I will say that J.D. Vance, if you look at the exit polls, did you see that poll that was going around of pet owners?

00:59:55.440 And it was like every single pet owner demographic went for Trump except for one.

01:00:02.320 And which one was that?

01:00:03.300 I think we know, Jack.

01:00:07.980 I think we know.

01:00:11.920 Childless cat ladies. 1.00

01:00:16.200 Did he say that in an interview with Charlie?

01:00:19.740 I feel like it was.

01:00:20.700 It was either Charlie or Tucker.

01:00:23.020 I can't remember at this point.

01:00:25.000 I think it was Charlie.

01:00:28.000 Classic.

01:00:30.840 Good times.

01:00:31.820 Good times.

01:00:32.300 Do you have a hard out, Jack?

01:00:35.720 No.

01:00:36.260 Well, I thought I was.

01:00:37.180 But I can do like 10 more minutes.

01:00:39.720 All righty.

01:00:40.180 All righty.

01:00:40.620 Oh, this is great.

01:00:42.660 Yeah.

01:00:43.340 I'm loving this chat right now.

01:00:45.920 People are men with troubles.

01:00:50.120 Ew.

01:00:52.200 Life of Brian is not a Christmas.

01:00:53.600 Someone's saying Life of Brian is a Christmas movie.

01:00:55.680 No, Life of Brian is not a Christmas.

01:00:57.080 Life of Brian is hilarious.

01:00:58.940 Life of Brian by Monty Python is amazing.

01:01:00.900 I'm sure Matthew has no idea.

01:01:02.220 Matthew, do you know what Life of Brian is?

01:01:04.600 Love is Blind?

01:01:05.420 I'm sorry.

01:01:05.980 Life of Brian?

01:01:08.040 Have you heard of that movie?

01:01:09.380 He hasn't heard of Life of Brian.

01:01:10.560 When did that come out?

01:01:13.000 Here, I'll look it up.

01:01:13.620 Before I was born.

01:01:15.440 Have you heard of Monty Python and the Holy Grail?

01:01:17.180 Okay, he's heard of Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

01:01:20.380 So it's another Monty Python movie.

01:01:21.180 People have just never heard of anything.

01:01:23.920 It's about a, yeah, exactly.

01:01:25.520 Just lived a cloistered life.

01:01:27.880 So, shelter childhood.

01:01:30.700 So, Life of Brian is a movie where this guy is born in a similar way to Jesus and in a similar place and time as Jesus,

01:01:40.640 but is not actually Jesus and keeps getting accidentally mistaken for Jesus.

01:01:45.560 Someone says their favorite Christmas movie of the last 10 years is Fat Man starring Mel Gibson,

01:01:54.120 which I have never heard of, but it does honestly look pretty remarkable.

01:02:00.420 It is an unorthodox slant on holiday traditions that follows a jaded, gritty Santa Claus, played by Mel Gibson,

01:02:08.420 who struggles with ennui, production issues, government interference, and an embittered assassin sent by a vengeful, naughty child.

01:02:18.100 The film received mixed reviews.

01:02:22.380 I'm just seeing the cover of this.

01:02:24.040 By the way, is Gremlins a Christmas movie?

01:02:27.760 Because he gets the Gremlins, he gets Gizmo for Christmas.

01:02:31.400 Does it otherwise have Christmas themes?

01:02:33.300 Okay, I'll confess, I've never seen Gremlins.

01:02:36.720 I mean, no, it doesn't.

01:02:38.780 But it is the beginning of the movie that he receives the first, you know, Gremlin as a Christmas present.

01:02:47.060 Someone says Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

01:02:48.700 That is a Thanksgiving movie, as we discussed.

01:02:50.700 No, that's Thanksgiving.

01:02:51.580 That's absolutely Thanksgiving.

01:02:52.560 That's like the only Thanksgiving movie ever made, other than that crappy slasher movie.

01:02:57.600 What about Charlie Brown?

01:02:58.600 That's not like a theatrical movie.

01:03:01.400 That's a television special.

01:03:02.380 It's totally different.

01:03:03.740 There are a lot of television specials about Thanksgiving.

01:03:08.200 Yeah, so in the last 10 years, you either get, the last 10 years or so of Christmas movies,

01:03:14.200 you either get like a Hallmark kind of Christmas movie, or you get this like gritty kind of Christmas movie.

01:03:21.920 By the way, I will say that I am unabashedly supportive of all Hallmark movies.

01:03:29.120 I love Hallmark movies.

01:03:30.700 I think they're fantastic.

01:03:31.980 I think they're wonderful.

01:03:33.320 I don't care that it's the same plot every time.

01:03:35.800 That's not the point.

01:03:36.520 The point is, that's the world we're fighting for.

01:03:40.040 That's the world that, you know, imagine if you could just live in one of those worlds where all you had to worry about was,

01:03:46.920 oh, the town Christmas party needs a fundraiser to save the old inn or something.

01:03:53.780 And you've got this wonderful community where people join together.

01:03:57.480 And then, you know, Sarah is back from the big city, and she's still single because she's working so hard.

01:04:05.660 And then she meets the guy who runs the inn, and they fall in love.

01:04:10.180 And off you go.

01:04:11.180 And it's like, that's the world we're fighting for.

01:04:14.020 And that's why I like Hallmark movies.

01:04:15.280 What's the better Hallmark movie, where the man from Business City learns how to, like, let go and reacquaint himself with rural life?

01:04:24.580 Or the woman who's gone to the big city? 0.63

01:04:26.560 Because we have both versions.

01:04:28.560 Is it better when the woman learns to, like, go small town life, or when the guy is, like, hooked by a cute girl next door type in the small town? 0.99

01:04:37.380 City to rural.

01:04:39.160 I think that's the better story.

01:04:40.500 But who should be going from the city to the rural?

01:04:43.340 Guy or girl? 0.81

01:04:43.780 Which one has the character arc?

01:04:47.620 I think the guy.

01:04:48.940 The guy going to the rural part, right?

01:04:51.580 Because there's a sense of retaining all this masculinity kind of traits of helping out the city or the town, carrying trees, right?

01:05:02.120 Chopping down trees.

01:05:03.020 I like that sense of movies.

01:05:05.960 Bringing that back.

01:05:06.620 I just don't like the softness.

01:05:10.420 I take the opposite route.

01:05:12.020 I think it's the ones that are sort of, you know, most media out there promotes the girl boss lifestyle and promotes the sex in the city lifestyle.

01:05:23.740 And it's like the career woman, you've got to do this, and you've got to eschew childhood.

01:05:29.360 And this is, by the way, where you get the Childless Cat Ladies from. 1.00

01:05:31.880 And instead, you have these great Hallmark movies that come out every year that are like, hey, there's more to life than that.

01:05:40.420 And there's good things that you're passing up on.

01:05:43.160 And, you know, that doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with that.

01:05:45.820 But maybe, you know, maybe Christmas means just a little bit more.

01:05:51.440 But does it maybe set up a misleading expectation where you could be a girl boss and then you just go on a vacation and, like, whoop, swept off your feet and you still get your, like, whirlwind romance?

01:06:01.880 Whereas if it's the man in Business City having that happen, it is mostly women who watch these movies. 0.84

01:06:08.220 Then you are communicating, really, like, this is actually what men find most desirable, like, these traits, like, of the girl next door, small town girl.

01:06:18.160 You might be sending a more useful message to them, whereas if it's the, like, girl boss un-girl bossing, it might sort of fly over their head.

01:06:27.260 And they'll just think, wow, I can hook this amazing small town guy after I've done my, like, career stint in the big city.

01:06:36.320 You could interpret it either way.

01:06:37.740 That's like the Taylor Swift, Travis Kelsey thing, right?

01:06:40.200 Like, Taylor Swift is like, oh, I dated all these guys and, you know, I put off marriage, but I still ended up with, you know, Super Bowl champion.

01:06:48.160 Yeah, we have Thor, Thor Colonel says, girl boss returns to her hometown to take care of her sick father and falls in love and leaves her career behind is 75% of Hallmark movies.

01:07:02.060 Admittedly, I don't watch these movies.

01:07:04.260 Love it.

01:07:05.180 I hope they're actually like this.

01:07:07.120 Once you've seen one, you don't need to see the others.

01:07:09.240 They're all the same, just different names.

01:07:11.220 Yes, you do.

01:07:12.020 Over and over and over.

01:07:13.840 By the way, they do have some that are actually kind of cool because they're like, you know, they go and film on location.

01:07:22.320 So they'll go show you like, like, we just watched one.

01:07:24.780 We actually literally, Tanya and I just watched one the other day where they were doing a river cruise down the Danube, which, Blake, you would like that.

01:07:33.920 And they go and visit like different cities and castles along the Danube.

01:07:37.320 The only issue is that so the guy, of course, is like, you know, secretly a prince, of course, but it's like a fake country.

01:07:44.360 You know, that's sort of like a it's sort of like a stand in Poland and stopping.

01:07:48.120 Whoa, whoa, whoa.

01:07:50.680 Now we're going to have Mr.

01:07:54.380 Mr.

01:07:54.820 The cause of all the problems in Europe for the last 150 years.

01:07:58.500 OK, OK.

01:07:59.880 No, it's it's it.

01:08:02.220 No, those are cool.

01:08:03.680 And someone just someone just put it out in the chat.

01:08:07.040 Royal holiday.

01:08:07.800 That's right.

01:08:08.260 It's real holiday.

01:08:09.080 That's what it was.

01:08:10.980 One royal holiday.

01:08:12.400 The Netflix, like, Hallmark knockoff.

01:08:14.780 The Christmas Prince was really funny because they have like it takes place in like an entire Christmas themed country called like.

01:08:23.180 Look at this.

01:08:23.680 Look at this.

01:08:24.960 Thor Colonel is with me.

01:08:26.240 I'm with Jack on this.

01:08:27.240 When I was caring for my grandma in hospice, she left it on Hallmark and all the movies were low key grade.

01:08:32.360 Yeah, they are.

01:08:33.500 Because because what it is is like, yeah, it's tame.

01:08:36.500 I get it.
