00:02:58.020
are asking for your reaction um on this new movie that's coming out i don't know if you've seen the
00:03:04.500
trailer for it civil war civil war yeah so this uh so a24 is a big production company they produced a
00:03:11.140
lot of the horror movies and you know dramatic movies or whatever um they're coming out with
00:03:17.040
this new movie called civil war it's supposed to release in spring of 2024 so um let's give the
00:03:25.240
people what they're asking for so so this new movie has released the first trailer for alex garland's
00:03:29.660
new movie civil war political allegory that uh imagines a large-scale insurrection in which 19
00:03:36.580
states have succeeded including something called the florida alliance meanwhile a three-term president
00:03:43.140
is trying to hold together what remains of the united states so here we got a three-term president
00:03:47.920
right now yeah no shit currently okay first of all that's the first thing uh you guys don't get it
0.74
00:03:53.060
but your buddy barack obama with his free fucking cell phones is the one calling the shots right now
0.97
00:03:57.340
anyway so we already have a three-term president secondly if i'm gonna be part of an alliance
00:04:01.420
it should be the florida missouri alliance okay because we're the same kind of people we just don't
00:04:07.440
have ocean bias or alligators yeah yeah we got other shit like like fucking cousins okay wait wait
0.79
00:04:14.580
like fucking the cousins maybe depends okay uh and also if we're going to talk about this large-scale
0.78
00:04:21.780
insurrection do they have weapons this time well because if they don't i don't want to hear about it
00:04:26.360
it's not an insurrection that's right yeah that's a fact that's a fact well here's the trailer for
00:04:29.820
those of you guys who have not seen it 19 states have seceded the united states army ramps up
00:04:34.740
activity the white house issued warnings to the western forces as well as the florida alliance
00:04:39.200
the three-term president assures the uprising will be dealt with swiftly let me know if you want to try
00:04:44.400
anything on i guess a way there's like a pretty huge civil war going on all across america we just
00:04:50.180
try to stay out with what we see on the news seems like it's for the best
00:04:54.440
citizens of america the so-called western forces of texas and california
00:05:06.660
have suffered a very great defeat at the hands of the united states military
00:05:13.640
mr president do you regret the use of airstrikes against american citizens
00:05:19.400
you're moving to dc today we need to go down there they shoot journalists on sight in the
00:05:28.960
capital every instinct in me says this is death what it
00:05:32.540
every time i survived the war zone i thought i was sending a warning home don't do this
00:05:40.740
but here we are there's some kind of misunderstanding here what we're american okay
00:05:57.720
the western forces will reach the white house on july 4th
00:06:15.100
you're gonna hang back i'm not hanging back one nation under god indivisible with liberty
00:06:51.660
first of all if we have a real civil war this is what it's going to look like
00:06:58.720
it's going to look like all the fucking warrior class
00:07:00.980
of americans that people pretend like don't exist
00:07:03.940
okay which there's millions and millions and millions of people out here
00:07:07.260
with guns and supplies and training that are not really showing it right now
00:07:12.900
okay and we've emboldened this very weak side of society the progressive left
00:07:18.600
who show up at protests with trash can lids and fucking pool noodles
0.98
00:07:24.160
and dress like fucking gay pirates of the caribbean
0.99
00:07:30.620
and they think they're gonna fucking fuck us up
0.94
00:07:33.860
all right so they're emboldening this fucking weak ass side of the society
00:07:40.660
and the reality is all the real warriors are quiet under the surface
00:07:45.740
and so what this would actually look like is those people
00:07:48.640
versus the little weak blue hair trash can lid pool noodle fucks
1.00
00:07:53.880
with the backing of the united states military that's completely compliant
00:07:57.920
because they weeded out all the warriors over the covid mandate
00:08:28.440
the true issue they're gonna have to deal with for sure
00:08:31.520
you know but but like dude i look at this stuff man
00:08:45.780
so that way everybody writes it off as entertainment
00:08:52.340
yeah like this is them showing exactly what the play is
00:09:01.740
i don't think i'm gonna be donning red sunglasses
00:09:08.860
there's no support on the progressive left side
00:09:37.440
and there's no support for them in the real streets
00:11:00.060
people i talked about this last night on my story
00:11:33.120
and when they realize that it's not going to work
00:11:35.460
because their asses are legitimately on the line bro
0.89
00:13:45.040
because that's the only fucking chance we got
0.88
00:19:14.420
to answer any of the committee's legitimate questions
00:19:54.000
make trump look like he was colluding with russia
00:20:27.620
you're selling paintings to people from fucking china dude
0.89
00:20:37.500
jim jordan came out yesterday right after he said whatever he said
00:20:40.820
yeah do you notice how the story keeps changing
00:20:48.780
that joe biden didn't know anything about the business dealings
00:20:58.620
know that there's a whole bunch of people out here
00:21:02.920
research outside of what they see on msnbc or cnn
00:21:22.340
to pass some shit about some protection at the southern border for us
00:21:27.100
you sit here and talk about all this good shit you're doing for america
00:21:31.060
while we got millions of fucking criminals coming across our border
00:21:38.880
the the house votes to formalize impeachment inquiry
00:21:48.480
that continues the fucking surveillance on innocent american citizens
0.82
00:22:05.760
they don't care if they look like they're lying dude
00:22:14.400
like all these dumbass conservative talking heads
00:23:07.880
it's like even with this hunter biden thing bro
00:23:38.880
you had to spend fucking 700 grand of hookers
1.00
00:23:41.180
like you couldn't even fucking pick them up
0.88
00:23:42.860
you're one of the most famous dudes in the world
00:23:56.740
and you guys should go fucking fuck yourselves
1.00
00:23:58.860
fucking think you can do whatever the fuck you want in this country
00:24:02.820
and everybody's talking about how afraid they are
00:24:06.480
that's the attitude the entire country should have
00:24:49.200
there ain't gonna be nobody left to talk for you
00:25:08.880
see this is why I think they're gonna shut down the grid dude
00:25:16.520
and then they're just gonna shut the whole thing down
00:25:18.400
because it's like flipping the game table over right
00:25:35.060
people better remember how to organize in person
00:25:43.940
because I believe that that's what they'll resort to
00:26:38.440
but I thought I'd change it up a little bit today
00:53:10.720
fucking up you are fucking up yeah because
1.00
00:54:28.340
it it just fucked the country up dude well
0.92
00:54:34.760
did that was because he started sucking ass on
0.99
00:54:43.900
these things but like this is this is anti-american
00:54:53.780
anti-american shit is going to find their money
0.97
00:55:03.620
let us know what you guys think i mean dude i think
00:55:05.840
right now these dudes still have an opportunity to
00:55:09.760
like i i like dude what if lebron james came out in
00:55:12.540
like a week and been like fuck dude they've been
0.89
00:55:14.080
leveraging me they've been telling me to do this
00:55:16.180
i i fucking didn't know what to do because i've never
0.94
00:55:18.860
been in this position before but here's what i think
00:55:23.900
dude think what would happen bro you know what i'm
00:55:27.180
saying but they seem to continue to go down the
00:55:32.480
fucking at in washington dc with the establishment
00:55:36.800
you know with mitch mcconnell and chuck schumer the guys
00:55:39.520
that we all identify causing the problems in the
00:55:41.580
world yeah and everybody yeah so it's difficult man it's
00:55:45.220
like it's hard for me dude because i've been such a huge
00:55:47.760
fan of this dude for so long it's like sucks yeah you know
00:55:51.380
what i mean like it sucks dude it sucks like because
0.87
00:55:54.060
like the guy has so much great shit to say and he's like
0.75
00:55:57.600
built this he is the american dream to me you know what i
00:56:01.120
mean and like i don't know man i wish i knew what was
00:56:05.880
really like and take everything i say on this situation with a grain of salt
00:56:08.920
because i don't fucking know yeah i dressed up as the rockers uh for
0.87
00:56:12.360
halloween one year you did yeah that's what i'm saying
00:56:14.580
like he's an icon you know what i'm saying like smell what i'm cooking we
00:56:18.100
need some we need some people some some big time
00:56:20.540
leaders to step up and and like and i'm not saying republican i'm saying
00:56:25.900
influencers i'm not saying be a republican i'm not saying
00:56:28.920
beef i'm saying common sense man yeah i'm saying call for some unity
00:56:34.920
you know what i mean get people to understand they're being manipulated
00:56:37.960
get people to understand that we're all the same bro
00:56:40.140
we all have struggles we all have hardships we're all here trying to do our
00:56:43.720
best and while we're all here trying to do our best
00:56:45.840
we have these people making it harder on us like
00:56:48.820
you know we we have to stop we have to have some leaders besides me i'm not big
00:56:53.960
calling for that unity bro and to abandon identity politics and like start
00:57:01.620
stop arguing over shit that at the end of the day doesn't fucking matter
0.92
00:57:05.860
like we're having everything stripped away from us because we can't focus on
00:57:11.580
who the real enemy is because they've got us all stirred up about things
00:57:14.400
that legitimately in the real world none of us give a fuck about
00:57:26.980
i think it's important for people to understand that your voice matters
00:57:31.900
and what you say matters and what you do matters and it doesn't matter if you're
00:57:35.920
the rock or if you're lebron or if you're fucking you
0.99
00:57:38.580
you know it's important to stand for things right now and stand for the right
00:57:47.620
is the opposite of what you believe is going on you know i see a lot of people
00:57:52.220
you know and this is just speaking frankly you know i see a lot of people
00:57:57.980
who are against the progressive left and now they've moved so far right that it's
00:58:03.960
like bro i'm not with that either you know you know what i'm saying like
00:58:06.740
we have to we have to like not over correct you know what i mean like
00:58:10.920
like for example dude like dana white um signing with bud light you know what i mean
00:58:17.900
like he's getting blasted all over the internet and there's memes and shit and and and like dude
0.77
00:58:22.860
i can i can understand why i can understand why people are still upset about that because they
00:58:27.340
never took accountability and they never said like hey this shouldn't have been done we're not
00:58:31.260
gonna fucking do that we're gonna stick to making you know beer and you know cool like
0.93
00:58:38.060
we're gonna be normal you know what i'm saying we're not going down this road anymore no chicks with
1.00
00:58:41.580
dicks yeah like we're not doing this weird shit and like if they were to come out and and say that
0.76
00:58:47.980
you know that's one thing but they haven't so i understand why people are pissed off but like
00:58:51.900
dude also there's this whole other perspective which is this the people who made those decisions
00:58:59.340
are not the people that are being punished for those decisions the people who made those decisions
00:59:03.260
are causing people like our friends over here at gray eagle who are great human beings and they're
00:59:08.460
they're patriots and they're they're pro-america and pro-freedom and these guys are beer distributors
00:59:14.140
for enhancer bush and they're having to like you know their sales are dropping and they're
00:59:18.700
they're having to lay people off and they're having to make adjustments and the people that are getting
00:59:22.140
laid off are just a hard-working neighbor of yours who's trying to survive yeah had nothing to do yeah
00:59:27.980
so it's like a very difficult situation and like how i read what dana's doing um is i think dana's a
00:59:35.820
super fucking smart dude i mean clearly he's very intelligent look what he's built it's one of the
00:59:41.180
he invented a sport and like probably what is probably the one of the most popular sports in
00:59:46.700
the world now you know he markets it well he he's connected to every single celebrity on the planet
00:59:52.780
you know what i'm saying like this dude is not an idiot he's a very very smart guy and what it appears
00:59:58.140
to me when i see them signing with bud light is i see a two-fold decision i see a decision where
01:00:04.300
he's going to get overpaid for for taking a chance to co-brand with a brand who's damaged themselves
01:00:10.460
which is good business and secondly i think he i i really think this is what it is i don't think it's
01:00:16.620
money at all i mean dana why don't need any money okay what i think it is dude is i think he understands
01:00:23.260
the importance of canceling cancel culture i think he understands that we cannot just take the cancel
01:00:29.180
culture that the the right and the common sense american has been at the on the receiving end of
01:00:34.700
and now apply it over here from the other direction run a hundred mile an hour yeah because here's the
01:00:39.980
thing bro we can never have a unified society that's a weapon that was strategically introduced to get
01:00:45.100
people to fall in line and in a real america that we all believe real america is if we're honest with
01:00:52.060
ourselves there is room for differing opinions and different lifestyles and and differences and if
01:00:58.060
we just take the weapon that they put on us for so long and start using it for every now now look i
01:01:04.380
want to say this with an asterisk there's there's times when it's appropriate when grown men are
01:01:08.620
dressing up as women and they are fucking shaking their dicks in front of kids it's appropriate and
1.00
01:01:12.380
bud light supporting that that's appropriate but the point has been made in my opinion and i would
01:01:18.140
believe that i think the move that's actually been had here was is you have a dude who understands we
01:01:24.460
can't use a social weapon on the other side at some point it has to stop so we can have a reasonable
01:01:30.780
society and i do think bud light should take some accountability for what they did and i think if
01:01:35.500
they did it would it would their sales would come right back yeah they did a classic step dead move
01:01:40.620
they apologize without saying a word you know it's like they beat your ass like are you ready to eat
0.98
01:01:44.700
yeah right right right yeah on with the show yeah and like and like dude they you know i think
01:01:51.260
i don't know man i think it's a very like i don't like where it is where the cancel culture is on the
01:01:57.020
on the right right now yeah like it's it's like dude if you cancel ourselves bro bro and the thing
01:02:01.740
dude you see the other side they listen they they don't work we see we're the ones that work we see
01:02:06.220
that happening yeah we see good patriotic americans getting attacked because of one thing or another
01:02:13.980
thing or another thing at some point you know people who have influence are gonna have to stand
01:02:18.220
up be like look i'm not with cancel culture yeah if you don't want to drink their fucking beer don't
0.99
01:02:21.900
fucking drink it we got we're doing business we gotta check the records bro huh what what does the
0.90
01:02:26.540
record say of that person or of that company what have they been doing for the last 200 fucking years
0.98
01:02:31.740
okay well what has ab been doing since they've been a very dude anheuser bush is the identity of this
01:02:38.140
city that we live in yeah we're in st louis missouri this is where it's from okay every
01:02:42.540
fucking beer that you ever drank from anheuser bush has st louis missouri on it okay so
0.90
01:02:48.700
i've probably i'm a little biased but to me anheuser bush is an iconic american company dude and
01:02:53.820
they've done a lot of i mean you think about like what they've done in disaster reliefs over and over
01:02:59.420
and over and totally shutting down beer production to make water like dude these are the you know the
01:03:05.660
track record does have to count for something and like it should and dude i'm not sitting here advocating
01:03:10.540
for them but i'm saying there's a case to be made for us to consider that at some point we have to
01:03:18.540
say all right this canceling shit has to stop and the canceling shit is going to have to be stopped by
0.89
01:03:23.660
people who are critical thinkers but by not participating in it yeah and i i personally
01:03:29.500
putting myself in dana white shoes i think he's very fucking smart he's very politically uh center and
0.92
01:03:35.660
also aware and that's how i see that move and a lot of people aren't talking about that yeah you
01:03:40.380
know maybe i'm wrong i don't know but that's what it looks like to me yeah i mean at what point is it
01:03:45.420
okay to drink about light again see i i was never a big fan of butt light specifically but say you were
01:03:51.740
say i was okay uh-huh when is it okay to drink about light again i mean should just go first
01:03:58.460
yeah i think you just start i would say we're i listen i think they learned the lesson like i
01:04:03.020
think they did the apology without apologizing i think yeah i think they should still i i well also
01:04:09.180
dude there's a viewpoint of this like how long we gonna harp on it hold on real shit there's also
0.77
01:04:15.100
i just thought of this you know like i've been canceled a hundred times there ain't no fucking way
0.91
01:04:19.660
i'm apologizing to anybody because i'm not fucking running my company at the bend and whim and will of
0.97
01:04:24.940
of fucking anybody else right so there's that too yeah how do you cancel cancel culture you start by
0.96
01:04:31.500
not apologizing for shit but i actually personally would like to see them take some accountability
01:04:35.900
for that that's my personal opinion but i also there's an actual fuck up it requires i understand
01:04:40.540
both sides yeah you know but i also understand if people never want to fucking do it again because
0.88
01:04:47.660
cancel culture on coming on us for so long like people are just fucking done with it
0.99
01:04:54.620
and it and it i don't know man it's a hard topic and it sucks because real people are real like like
01:05:03.580
like common sense hard-working americans are the ones suffering because of it right so it's like
01:05:09.420
i don't know man well like and we learned we know too that like our use of cancel culture has real
01:05:15.740
fucking implications you know what i'm saying so it's like all right cool so you know we all boycott
0.85
01:05:20.300
but like it goes out of business okay who's hiring all those tens of thousands of fucking employees
0.92
01:05:25.020
of hard but i mean working blue collar americans who's hiring them so date i've seen the meme of dana
01:05:30.140
going around where he says it says uh if you're a patriotic america you should be drinking gallons of
01:05:36.620
blood light right and everybody's fucking talking shit but if you think about what i just said about
0.84
01:05:42.380
canceling cancel culture makes sense it's very patriotic see what i'm saying makes sense and and
01:05:47.980
and when you think about what what that company's done for this country you know yeah they profit a
01:05:53.340
lot yeah they're people who own it are rich but i also happen to know the guys who used to own it
01:05:56.940
and they're fucking good people you know what i'm saying these are just fucking people like
0.92
01:06:01.340
you know what i mean yep like we we got to get smarter as a culture and we have to start
01:06:06.460
moving towards what america is always supposed to have been which is you know difference of
01:06:11.980
opinions difference of culture celebrating each other's for differences stop trying to push people's
01:06:16.140
way of life on everybody else i think where bud light really fucked up is that you know they they
0.99
01:06:20.620
went with the trans shit which is highly linked to the the kid shit and that's where people are pissed
01:06:26.700
yeah you know people don't look at trans people right now and not think that
01:06:31.820
because it's been so overly infiltrated the lgbt couldn't convince me otherwise right yeah like
0.61
01:06:37.020
you most americans are now correlate and this is why and this is why it's important for people like
01:06:43.900
the the people who like jamie who does gays against groomers right gay people organizing and say hey that's
01:06:49.740
not okay with us either they're stopping that line yeah holding that yeah so like for sure you know there's
01:06:54.780
a lot of people there's just a lot going on man and i think at the end of the day we have to work
01:06:59.260
towards unity we have to work towards what america's supposed to be and yes there's things
01:07:03.180
that we can't tolerate like fuck and this is why bud light i think needs to address what they did
0.87
01:07:07.500
because you know from their opinion they're probably saying oh well trans well i think i don't think
01:07:13.420
i think most people don't really give a fuck if people cross-dress and are quote-unquote trans
01:07:19.260
it's it's the shit that trans is associated with which is now the kid stuff
01:07:24.300
the the inappropriate books in schools um the hormone in the hormones into kids the castration
01:07:33.260
the mutilation of kids like all that stuff is now synonymous with trans because regular people who
0.84
01:07:40.540
which have existed for thousands of years who are trans who dress up as the opposite sex live their life
1.00
01:07:46.300
as the opposite sex have have allowed these people to infiltrate their their cause you know and you
01:07:55.020
know i don't think bud light really understands that that's how their customers see that issue you know
01:08:00.620
what i mean it's not just an issue of people who like do people really give a fuck about like let's
0.63
01:08:05.900
just say all that other stuff didn't exist like the kids stuff the hormones the mutilation the porn
01:08:12.060
shit and kids books uh you know the drag queen story hour dicks in their faces and shit let's
1.00
01:08:18.780
just say all that shit wasn't included and bud light would have sponsored dylan mulvaney a cross-dresser
0.61
01:08:24.300
well bro uh that's been going on for years and no one says
01:08:28.460
shit i mean they probably would have still got a little bit of okay they might get made fun of a
01:08:32.540
little bit but like dude real talk it wouldn't have been no millions of laws no dude they're tone
01:08:37.180
deaf to what the issue actually stands for you know what's uh rupaul's been around for 50 years
01:08:43.660
man yeah you know what i'm saying like that's a like this is there's always been this it's if you
01:08:49.580
trace it back to the earliest parts of civilization there's always been segments of the population
01:08:54.620
that have lived their life as the opposite gender and um you know when we start what it's become is the
1.00
01:09:03.340
problem you know hey i'm you're fucking demanding me to call you something that you're not or demanding
0.99
01:09:08.860
me to pretend that men can have babies or demanding that my kids get this shit indoctrinated on them at
0.99
01:09:14.140
school that's where this shit has gotten out of control no one ever really had a fucking problem
0.95
01:09:18.140
with it until it started getting jammed down everybody's throats and that's usually coming
01:09:24.220
right now from the normalization of pedophilia that's the truth because all of the issues that
01:09:30.060
are getting jammed down the throats they're getting jammed down the throats these aren't reasonable
01:09:34.220
issues no we're talking about kids cutting off their penises taking hormones fucking reading sexually
0.91
01:09:41.340
uh explicit books when they're when they're four years old five years old we're talking about you
01:09:46.940
know people being pressured by doctors into taking i mean this is evil shit dude and it's already
0.81
01:09:54.060
happened in history before people just don't realize it this happened in 1930s germany it was called the
01:09:58.940
weimar republic like this is a real thing that's already happened the first gender assignment
0.93
01:10:03.100
surgeries happened right around that time you know what i'm saying like we're not we're repeating
01:10:09.180
nothing new yes yeah it's and i don't know it's just um anyway that's how i see dana's move
01:10:16.780
i see it as him trying to stop and using his platform i personally respect the out of it
01:10:22.220
and i know people are going to disagree with me that's okay because i feel like his i feel like what
01:10:26.780
he's trying to do is stop the swing of canceling from happening yeah that's how i see it happening
01:10:30.940
he's not a fucking idiot dude yeah yeah it's real man well guys let's get to our final segment of the
0.79
01:10:38.460
show as always we have thumbs up or dumb as fuck that's where we bring a headline in to talk about
0.83
01:10:43.500
it it'll get one of those two options and with that being said our thumbs up or dumb as
01:10:47.420
fuck headline reads it makes me sick luke combs apologizes to fans sued for making merch bearing
0.80
01:10:55.100
his likeness this is an interesting interesting story but it's cool um and that's somebody who
01:11:01.260
has a personal brand um i wanted to get your thoughts on this too so i mean let's get into
01:11:06.380
this story so country star luke combs expressed his displeasure with a fan being sued for selling
01:11:12.620
homemade drink tumblers with his face on them a federal judge in illinois ordered florida-based
01:11:19.820
fan nicole harness to pay the singer 250 000 for copyright infringement after she was accused of
01:11:28.060
using the singer's likeness without his permission her case was part of a larger copyright infringement
01:11:34.140
lawsuit per tampa bay's local nbc affiliate wfla harness has congestive heart failure and quote her
01:11:42.140
only job is selling homemade tumblers and t-shirts through amazon the fan said she purchased the
01:11:47.900
artwork online and sold 18 tumblers for 20 each making a total of 380 dollars harness told wfla
01:11:56.220
she didn't find out about the 250 000 judgment until she wasn't able to withdraw money from her amazon
01:12:02.380
seller account which had a balance of 5 500 quote it was very stressful i don't have money to pay my
01:12:09.340
bills harness told the outlet i just want this resolved i didn't mean any harm to luke combs
01:12:14.780
i quit selling the tumbler i pulled it down i just don't understand um now combs caught wind of it
01:12:20.620
found out about it and he responded to it so this is the the video from luke combs what's up guys luke
01:12:25.820
here uh it's 7 27 a.m here in tennessee um i woke up at 5 a.m to use the restroom and first thing i saw
01:12:33.340
was this um a woman that's being sued by me for 250 000 um i've spent the last two hours um
01:12:43.260
trying to to make this right trying to figure out what what's going on because i was completely
01:12:47.740
and utterly unaware of this um so we reached out firstly my manager reached out to this
01:12:52.940
news station that ran this piece to try to get some info um and so we do have a company uh that goes
01:12:59.820
after folks uh only supposedly large corporations operating internationally that make millions and
01:13:06.780
millions of dollars making counterfeit t-shirts things of that nature running illegal businesses
01:13:11.740
and apparently this woman nicole has somehow gotten uh wrapped into that and that makes me
01:13:17.420
absolutely sick to my stomach so i was able to get nicole's phone number i spoke to her this morning
01:13:23.100
she told me that you know she was absolutely shocked by this i was i'm so apologetic i i
01:13:29.500
talking to her i just it makes me sick honestly um that this would happen especially at the holidays
01:13:35.260
i can't imagine being in her shoes she told me there's fifty five hundred dollars locked up in her amazon
01:13:40.540
account um i'm gonna double that send her eleven thousand dollars today just so she doesn't have
1.00
01:13:46.140
anything to worry about um she was never supposed to be involved in anything like this no fans should
01:13:52.380
ever have to be involved in anything like this um and she uh got in trouble uh apparently for making
0.98
01:13:59.020
tumblers so i'm gonna make my own tumbler today that's gonna go up today um i'll keep you posted
01:14:04.700
on that but all that money is gonna go to nicole and her family uh to try to help with her medical bills
1.00
01:14:10.620
um hopefully that can help her out um and again this is unbelievable i was completely shocked when i saw
01:14:18.140
this this morning it makes me sick um this is not something that i would ever do this is not the
01:14:22.620
kind of person i am i'm not greedy uh in any way shape or form money is the last thing on my mind i
01:14:29.100
promise you guys that and i invited nicole and her family out to a show this year so i could give her a
01:14:34.540
hug and say sorry in person and yeah i love you guys i just wanted to i just wanted to clear that up
01:14:39.980
man because it makes me sick for anybody to be thinking that that i'm this kind of person because i'm
01:14:44.940
the farthest thing from it so love you guys and uh i'll keep you posted yeah man so what we got on
01:14:50.860
this i mean he seems like a pretty good dude i'm saying he sounds great i mean i i know for a fact
01:14:58.940
he probably didn't know about that happening but you know there's more to that than this uh and there
01:15:05.100
are people out there that steal people's likenesses and try to make money you know how many people have
01:15:09.180
made 75 hard journals or 75 hard apps or little fucking tricks or like name shit the
0.95
01:15:14.860
same shit as my name and the scam people out of money a lot it happens all the time and we have
0.83
01:15:20.060
to fucking do things like that that has to stop them yeah so you know while i can appreciate his
0.89
01:15:26.300
his grace on this um people have to understand that they there's rules to this for a reason to protect
01:15:33.660
against certain things from happening and i don't i i feel like he made the right call because i don't
01:15:38.300
feel like she was doing it maliciously right um but at the same time you know uh legally and this
01:15:46.540
is probably what he's not realizing is legally because he came out and did that and said that
01:15:52.060
he's actually weakening his own copyright and his own trademark because trademark is about enforcement
01:15:58.380
right and if you use the limit well hold on if you if you don't legally enforce your marks or your brand
01:16:05.100
and and they can show a history of that other people your brand can be up for use by anybody
01:16:10.940
so and he him publicly doing this sort of puts them in a in a difficult position later on for one
01:16:16.540
of those companies uh you know that sells millions of dollars of fake merch you see his cousins or some
01:16:23.820
shit look man i i that's real shit yeah because dude there's a lot of people that scam people on other
0.82
01:16:29.900
people's names dude i have it happen to me all the time i see it all the time all the time
01:16:33.900
you know and it's malicious it's not just innocent fan stuff it's like hey i can uh dude i saw this
01:16:40.780
with her mosey okay her mosey's a great friend of mine um and there was a company who used ai to create
01:16:47.740
a video with his likeness to run ads of him saying hey buy my course or buy my here which he doesn't
01:16:54.300
even do he gives his away for free and these guys are making all kinds of money because alex has never
01:16:59.980
sold anything before right so people assume that it's him when it's not him and these that you have
01:17:05.900
to sue people and do shit to protect yourself against those things they're so i can understand
0.74
01:17:10.460
both sides of it like i understand why his team went after her but i also understand why he feels
01:17:16.220
the way he does because dude a lot of times those people that do that even to me they don't realize
01:17:23.020
like they're doing something illegal they're like yeah and it's like dude like you gotta think you
01:17:30.220
can't just make use other people's shit and make products and like make a business around it like
0.74
01:17:35.180
there's that's you know there's a here's what i'm saying there's a difference between genuine mistake
01:17:42.140
and malicious intent and to me this is genuine mistake and he's doing real cool by it so my only
01:17:48.300
question is like like i said i mean like because i see your point how you argue on the counter that so
01:17:51.980
like my question is like yes like where do you draw the line like okay well you know fifty five
01:17:56.460
hundred dollars is fine okay but it's six thousand too much like at what point do you want to like do
01:18:01.180
you enforce i don't know man you know what i'm saying like it's a it's it's a
01:18:08.380
it's a difficult situation yeah you know i think i for me personally i think it's about intent
01:18:14.860
was this person just a fan you know what i'm saying that was trying to like support and do something
01:18:20.060
and like get something out there that happens to me a lot like a lot of my a lot of people who are
01:18:24.460
fans of mine because i don't monetize my brand very much they will take things and try to push them
01:18:29.980
out like like a couple guys try to do that with with this right yeah and um and you know we had to
01:18:36.700
stop them because we have a business built around it right the apparel line that we've dropped and
01:18:41.020
shit so it's just uh it's touching man i think it comes down to intent i think it comes down to
0.58
01:18:49.580
is this person a genuine person who's just making a a very silly beginner business mistake or is this
01:18:57.020
person someone who uh is doing what they were doing to her mosey yeah right intentionally intentionally
01:19:03.660
trying to make money i think that's i think that matters a lot yeah for sure and and and dude you
01:19:08.220
know i think what he's doing is far above and beyond what he what he needs to do for that woman
01:19:12.460
and i think it speaks to his character i think it's a really cool thing that he's doing that
01:19:15.980
he says he don't care about money but he's got that prezi on doesn't he that's right don't be
01:19:22.380
bullshitting me bro yeah right right right you better start saying you like a whole lot of money so you
0.87
01:19:26.060
get more of it yeah no shit yeah by the way it's good money till it is listen motherfucker
0.92
01:19:32.380
it's hard to trust people that say they don't want money yeah like to me like when someone says
01:19:38.860
that to me when they say it ain't about the money or i don't care about the money that's to me that's
01:19:44.700
a red flag for a snake you're about to get about to fuck me you're about to get snaked you're about
0.99
01:19:48.940
to get snaked because if we were honest the money's very important super important that's why we do
01:19:53.580
business because it money matters yep right so like i appreciate honesty there and when people don't
01:19:59.980
give honesty and they say oh i don't care about money but they drive off in a fucking bentley
0.98
01:20:04.780
