On this week's episode of the podcast, the boys are joined by a special guest who is a former police officer who served in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. They discuss what it's like to be in uniform in a foreign country, how to deal with a terrorist attack, and what it means to be a woman in uniform.
00:02:01.000And then it's just kind of that that's always the scariest part is waiting when you're in an armed vehicle and you don't really know when you see a bunch of movement and people on communications.
00:02:14.000You're like, because I know that those in the left don't have to deal with this, let alone multiple times.
00:02:19.000And he basically was telling me, like, I grabbed him in a way, like, you didn't know this in the moment, of course, but he was not going to allow you to do anything other than what he wanted you to do.
00:02:46.000You're like, I can't protect myself, but this burly guy can.
00:02:50.000But nobody made any really substantially good arguments for keeping snap.
00:02:54.000No, they wanted to talk about something else like the Jews, or they wanted to try and discuss anything other than Snap because once you sort of got them into it, they go, oh, what about the, I go, yeah, look, cut the $3 billion to Israel.
00:03:23.000And that's something that really is a problem too on the right right now, where you see these people who aren't acting in good faith, where you go, okay, this is something we should all find some common ground on, where we need to seriously reform or just outright end a lot of the entitlements out there, the ones that have proven to not be fruitful at all.
00:03:40.000And instead they go, yeah, what about this?
00:03:42.000It's like, shouldn't we have a starting point?
00:03:44.000No one's saying that everything else is flawless.
00:03:47.000This is just one where we have an airtight case here that we got to change it.
00:03:51.000And when people do that, it just doesn't seem like they don't, it just doesn't seem like they want any progress.
00:03:55.000It seems like they just want to sow chaos and division.
00:03:59.000It came at the perfect time because the left, they're amidst their death throes right now, figuratively.
00:04:05.000And instead of finishing the left off politically right now, the right decides to start infighting.
00:04:11.000Where how do you move forward if you go, okay, well, 9 billion on soda, let's do away with that.
00:04:16.000And then 100 into 130 billion, I guarantee you we could trim two-thirds of that if we just go to a food stamp program.
00:05:15.000Because there's a lot of these connections with the money that he was receiving and going over to the Knesset and speaking and all of that.
00:05:22.000All of that stuff, I think, would be lessened if they had handled this properly.
00:05:26.000Yeah, what I will say is this is what I see a lot of out there: I see it start with a kernel of truth and then people misdirect you to something that they try and portray as a common denominator.
00:05:40.000So, for example, like I heard Tucker say, and by the way, the work that he just did with Miranda Devine, she might be on the show tomorrow, was great work regarding Crooks.
00:05:47.000Looks like there might have been a digital footprint.
00:05:55.000But he'll say something like, and of course, you know, when you call your political opponents a Nazi, then that, of course, justifies violence against them.
00:08:14.000And I see that and I some people don't know better and some people do know better I still do actually think that the national socialists of Germany were bad.
00:08:26.000Doesn't mean I'm paid by the Jews to say that.
00:08:30.000And also, when you look at these people, I will say this, think of all your disagreements in your home, domestically or, as you know, as a family, it all.
00:08:39.000The difference is almost always the starting point of the conversation.
00:08:43.000In other words, maybe you have an argument where you blow up and then your woman goes like well, you reacted this way, like yeah yeah, but it was the three months preceding that where I didn't and I was trying to bring something up and this is what was bothering me right, so it depends where you start.
00:08:55.000That's what determines the villain effectively.
00:08:58.000And so people will go out, like with the Jews, and they'll have some legitimate gripes.
00:09:01.000They'll say, well, the Jews were moneylending at crazy high interest rates and they were only charging Non-Jews those interest rates and not Jews.
00:09:09.000Okay, that's true, and that's why Hitler had a problem with them and that's why a lot of Europe had a problem with him.
00:09:14.000That statement in and of itself is largely true.
00:09:17.000Okay, but then if you extend it, you go.
00:09:19.000Well, why were the Jews primarily moneylenders?
00:09:22.000There were a lot of professions that weren't open to them, owning, running companies, a lot of the trades they weren't allowed to do it, and so one of the professions that made the most sense was moneylending.
00:09:32.000And it's true, Jews wouldn't charge other Jews the same kind of interest.
00:09:36.000They're not allowed to, neither did Christians.
00:09:51.000They went into the limited profession that they had been corralled into doesn't mean that there weren't some Jews to aggregate power and to misuse it.
00:09:59.000But if you just change the starting off point, it changes that context and you can pick the villain, and that's what I see a lot of.
00:10:08.000And then you see some people who claim to be on the right, where they pick a starting point and make the United States out to be the villain.
00:10:15.000I mean, look at, we talked with Dave Smith.
00:11:03.000If that's not justified, then no war ever is justified right after, if it yeah, I think it Was the day after.
00:11:09.000If a force that is moving forward and has said, we are looking for global domination, like a cartoon villain, what are we going to do tonight, Adolf?
00:11:19.000Same thing we do every night, Schwanzi.
00:12:04.000And so there's a lot of people coming around to this idea and going, oh, I haven't looked at history from this lens.
00:12:07.000And it's like, we've, I remember in high school when we were talking about Adolf Hitler and we were talking, because we read Mein Kampf, we actually watched in class Schindler's List.
00:12:17.000It's not exactly the most fun movie to watch over several classes for history.
00:12:21.000And they were teaching us stuff about, you know, what was going on.
00:12:23.000And you can say, oh, that's propaganda.
00:14:37.000Like when we go through history classes here in the United States, from what I remember, people don't really like to pay attention in history class.
00:14:44.000It's not like everybody's favorite subject.
00:14:46.000And so you do some ancient history stuff.
00:14:48.000You don't talk about everything that Xerxes did wrong.
00:14:50.000You talk about some of the things, right?
00:14:52.000You don't talk about every single event that happens everywhere.
00:14:55.000And so when you finally get to a point where you're talking about World War II, it's such a big subject that people go, okay, well, when you talk World War I and World War II, sometimes you have to hit the high points and move on.
00:15:16.000So when you miss the Holodomor in Eastern Europe, in Ukraine, perpetuated by what they would say with the Bolsheviks, which were controlled by the Jews is what they would say.
00:15:30.000They'll say it's because the Jews didn't want to give up the card that they've played of the Holocaust forever as being the most oppressed, the most hurt people ever.
00:15:39.000Look at the people that endured the Holodomor, and it was at the hands of the Jews is what they would say.
00:15:43.000And it's like, no, you're starting to attribute motive here.
00:15:45.000Like the Jews control our teachers and our textbooks, and that's why we didn't cover it.
00:15:49.000There's a reason we didn't cover a ton of what was going on with Stalin.
00:15:53.000People's attention spans and what they teach in school.
00:20:44.000He said, so we got to make immigration easier.
00:20:46.000I said, can you tell me, point me to any other scenario where something that is incredibly valuable is not devalued by removing the price of admission?
00:21:18.000And that's the litmus test for bringing people here is that you can contribute, you can add to what we are, not just come and take from it.
00:21:51.000Now, and by the way, that's a perfect example of where I think it's reasonable to have changed your position when you understand just how corrupt our immigration system is and how fleeced people who actually want to contribute, how fleeced they are in trying to get to this country going through the legal routes.
00:22:07.000I think we need to put a halt on almost all of it outside of examples where it's really, really clear that they benefit the interest of the American people.
00:22:16.000I want it to be easy for the people that we want to come here.
00:22:36.000By the way, I may have missed something in this as he's pulling it.
00:22:38.000I'm sorry I didn't mean to interrupt, but like apparently when we were looking at the pictures of her shoes and things like that, the headlines that were in there, one of them was like, did I pay overprice for my housing three years ago?
00:24:53.000But we were watching this movie on Netflix Nana's with Vince Vaughan.
00:24:57.000And I guess it was based on a true story where this restaurant, I think it was in Staten Island, hired Italian grandmothers to do the cooking.
00:25:04.000And it's still there, like 15 years later.
00:25:06.000And there's a scene in the film, Spoiler Alert, where Vince Vaughan's character finds out that his best friend sold his dad's classic car that like meant everything to him to fund this restaurant.
00:25:18.000And it's a really kind of touching scene.
00:25:19.000And my lady says, see, that's the thing, like men do that.
00:26:03.000But in general, men have to resolve conflict because conflict, if it gets to the point of distracting from your purpose, and whether that's war, whether that's hunting, whether that's building, innovating, you do have to take the greater good of the unit into consideration and sort of assess and agree with a leader.
00:26:28.000We have pecking orders and we understand that we play a role and we're willing to die.
00:26:34.000Men are willing to die for ideas and die for their friends on a regular basis.
00:26:39.000Not all, not all, but that is far more common among men than it is among women.
00:26:44.000And so, you know, I think it's a matter of policy.
00:26:47.000Those people who are going to be sent to die, who are willing to die, they should have greater sway in the vote than the people who send them to die and want to leave this country in the first place.
00:29:58.000Should it be considered a red flag in any relationship slash or intimate slash business if someone doesn't want to do the work and just take the magic pill slash shot?
00:30:13.000There is, people have different genetics.
00:30:16.000If people didn't have different genetics, then, you know, whenever men's health goes, get the Ryan Reynolds body, then everyone could do it.
00:30:23.000You can achieve the best body that's possible for you within your genetic parameters.
00:30:29.000If someone has lived a life of sloth and then decided to take a pillar and injection and lost weight and wants credit for it, to me, I would say that is indicative of a character that would tend to be lazy.
00:31:57.000You can expect in your first year or two of weightlifting, if you're doing it diligently, to maybe gain like eight to 10 pounds of muscle would be a lot.
00:32:52.000So if you're looking at someone who just loses weight and you can tell through the physique that they haven't built up any muscle tone, that it's just weight loss overall and they haven't put in the work.
00:33:36.000And I think maybe your answer to your question is, your question should be worded differently.
00:33:41.000Is it a red flag if somebody used to be fat and they did anything but work hard to, you know, and exercise to get it off?
00:33:48.000If it was a tool and they did work, then no.
00:33:51.000If they just did it and there would be rebound fat to right where they were left off once the pharmaceutical was no longer included, then I know guys that done that too, to be clear.
00:34:18.000So it happens to people who don't take Ozempic too.
00:34:21.000So I think what your red flag is just might, your red flag just might be people ever being fat.
00:34:26.000You might just want to just look for a person who's always been thin for yourself.
00:34:32.000I think I'm talking about like a business relationship.
00:34:33.000I would say if someone has like a completely messy fat has anything to do with business.
00:34:37.000No, they're talking about someone getting up and going the extra mile, someone you can trust, discipline as an employee.
00:34:42.000It's just another example of does it permeate every facet of their life?
00:34:44.000Discipline is something that is all-encompassing.
00:34:47.000And people who value discipline value it across the board, right?
00:34:52.000You'll get some people who are just vain where they only focus on their pecs.
00:34:56.000But generally speaking, in my experience, balanced human beings, if they're disciplined, and I don't mean they have to be a model, they're within striking distance of being in shape.
00:35:04.000They're usually also reading, learning.
00:35:06.000These are people who like self, who focus on self-improvement.
00:35:10.000There's also a red flag of somebody who's like really fit.
00:35:15.000I'll get into an argument about ideas or politics, and then someone doesn't, I disagree with somebody, and then they go, oh, well, you're fat.
00:35:22.000Like, oh, okay, but that has nothing to do with my opinion about immigration.
00:35:36.000And I will say, too, it is a red flag if someone is incredibly vain.
00:35:39.000Like, we don't, well, now we do have the one mirror because it's on the Jacked Fitness Rack, but we don't have mirrors there because I don't, it's, it's a self-improvement room, the office gym.
00:35:47.000It's not go in there and look at your pump and take a picture for the grim.
00:36:54.000As a matter of fact, it can actually be counterproductive if you have such a low caloric intake that your body is not able to, if it's trying to build muscle or trying to recover, where it can actually impede your.
00:37:21.000Some of them, but there are ways to do it.
00:37:24.000Ideally, you just sort of have a few hundred calories below maintenance.
00:37:30.000And especially if you're training hard, then you definitely need to be closer to maintenance calories than dropping it too fast because you'll feel like crap and you'll be tired.
00:37:37.000So I don't know what your size and weight, unless you're like five foot five or something like that.
00:37:43.0001,200 is very, very low for assuming you're a man because it says war man.
00:37:48.000Again, does your doctor know about your fitness regimen?
00:38:03.000So, and someone we could probably put it in a calculator, like your maintenance at that point, probably if you're 286, would be pretty high.
00:38:10.000Yeah, I don't want to give direct, but I think if you're feeling really crappy in your training, you could probably do better to talk with your doctor, increase some calories that would help with recovery, you know, good types of carbohydrates, obviously proteins, healthy fats.
00:38:24.000If you're feeling like crap losing weight, it's always going to be tough.
00:38:27.000The one thing for me is if I'm losing weight, I don't sleep because your metabolism, that's the one thing that I notice, and it really sucks.
00:38:33.000And the more severe your calorie deficit, the more crap you're going to feel.
00:40:23.000It's not, I don't think there's any calories in here.
00:40:25.000I mean, it's just vitamins, minerals, unless there's like some calories from garlic, because it might constitute some sort of measure of energy.
00:40:33.000I would recommend it too, especially if you have aches and pains in your joints.
00:40:37.000The garlic is really good for your lipid profile and blood pressure.
00:40:40.000I can say that and not be sued because there is clinical data.
00:40:43.000The only other supplement we're looking at maybe doing is creatine, which you can get from anywhere, but you want to make sure you're getting something that actually is what's on the label.
00:40:50.000Aside from that, there aren't many supplements that make a huge difference.
00:41:53.000They may not agree with it wholesale, but none of them think it's anti-Semitic and none of them think that it means you're a shill for the Jews.
00:42:00.000You only see it online where I think there's a lot of, you know, sort of trolling and edgelording.
00:42:05.000I do think that it's been anytime you make a topic somewhat forbidden, and I think it's been accelerated by this government, the optics of we're really clamping down on anti-Semitism on campus, which to be clear, I think if people vandalize a campus in the name of Palestine, if they're here on a student visa, they should be booted.
00:42:24.000I don't think that they should be booted if they have problems with the Israeli government.
00:42:53.000You have to tolerate all kinds of speech with which you disagree in a free society.
00:42:57.000I think with young people, a lot of them is, a lot of them are rebelling.
00:43:01.000I mean, you have to take into account, these are people who miss their proms, people who missed their graduation, you know, people who missed their senior year because of COVID, because of being locked down.
00:43:08.000And they look at it and they go, wait a second, who?
00:43:10.000And they look at the Schumers of the world and go, oh, okay, the Soroses of the world.
00:43:16.000And then they have people telling them, by the way, you're not allowed to criticize any of these people because they control all the institutions.
00:43:21.000And they go, oh, well, I should be allowed to criticize anybody.
00:43:38.000Keep in mind, you still have 200 million Muslims who believe that violence is often or somewhat justified against apostates, against infidels.
00:43:46.000And I can tell you this, when people say, ask yourself who you can't criticize, I have been under threat of death since 2009, going back to the Quran challenge, where I read the Quran on YouTube.
00:43:57.000I remember because there was a guy who was an editor at Fox News Digital who said, I have your family call me when you're dead.
00:44:53.000Well, and I know what the left will, and I don't have time to get into it, but I know what people will respond to this, right?
00:44:57.000Those on that side, they'll go, yeah, well, okay, so Islam, but who's the one who's pushing for opening and importing all these people from the third world from these Islamic countries?
00:45:06.000I'm sure there are some Jews on some humanitarian boards who have taken part in that.
00:45:10.000But what about almost all Islamic governments outside of these actual governments from which these people are fleeing?
00:45:17.000In other words, you look at the Islamic world.
00:45:19.000Hey, who actually welcomed people from places like Syria, places like Iraq, right?
00:45:25.000As ISIS was springing up, Barack Obama and less than 1% of them were Christians.
00:45:33.000So I think you'd be pretty hard pressed to say that the Republican, the MAGA wing of the Republican Party have been pro open borders and letting in Islamic refugees because they're controlled by the Jews.
