and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure the dopamine hit of the day the thing that makes
00:01:19.440
everything better it's called that's right the simultaneous sip go
00:01:32.480
unparalleled pleasure it's the best guy literally
00:01:36.560
well i will of course be talking about um charlie kirk and uh the big out the big update if you
00:01:47.360
haven't heard is that they have a perp in custody that they're pretty sure is the right purpose this
00:01:53.440
time we'll talk about all that but first a few other things just to wait for people to stream in
00:01:59.840
um how many of you saw the cringiest interview in the world of interviews between tucker carlson and
00:02:13.600
essentially accused sam altman of murdering one of his employees
00:02:17.200
he didn't say it directly but he kind of said it directly and and sam kept saying uh are you
00:02:26.640
accusing me of murder do you do you seriously believe that i murdered him now i do not believe
00:02:36.000
that sam altman ordered a hit on his employee i do believe there's a reasonably good chance
00:02:43.280
this is someone who just had a financial interest in open ai or chat gpt somebody may have taken it
00:02:51.040
into their own hands because the whistleblower employee who died
00:02:58.240
would have cost a lot of people a lot of money you know we're talking about billions that individuals
00:03:05.120
would lose if they were investors early i imagine but i doubt that sam altman
00:03:10.320
you know just one day decided to become a murderer all right um but the real question is whether it was
00:03:18.240
suicide or murder and sam says suicide and he says if you look to the final report you'd think that too
00:03:27.760
so i don't know i'm open-minded on that one but it it would be weird if it was suicide because you know
00:03:35.760
there's blood in multiple rooms and you know there's a lot of counter indications so we don't know
00:03:42.480
in other open ai news microsoft uh is buying a competitor so they're going to buy services from
00:03:51.680
anthropic um to drive their office 365 apps now if you've ever worked in a big organization
00:04:02.000
how do you interpret the following microsoft invests a god-awful amount of money in open ai
00:04:10.640
so that they would have access to ai and you know all the things they can do but while they
00:04:18.240
while they're the investor slash controller of the biggest most important ai
00:04:23.760
they're buying services from another one what's that all about does that mean they don't think open ai
00:04:34.240
would have worked do they think that for free because they already had open ai well maybe maybe
00:04:42.240
there would be a charge for it across organizations but doesn't that suggest a really big problem under
00:04:49.840
the hood am i wrong about that if you found out that the biggest company that owns the biggest ai
00:04:57.600
bought ai services from the competitor to their own company wouldn't you say there's something very
00:05:04.880
broken under the hood don't know what don't know what but that ain't right something going on there
00:05:12.080
i should tell you i i do have a small investment in microsoft stock um but wow
00:05:23.200
so as i said the uh there's a suspect in custody for the charlie kirk murder so today is not a perfect day
00:05:34.160
but yesterday was very bad and the day before was very bad you know yes we not only had the you know
00:05:40.800
brutal murder of charlie kirk but then on top of it the very next day you know we're immersed in
00:05:47.760
september 11th um memorializing so we got the double whammy we got the attack on the country the attack on
00:05:57.840
charlie and some some would say attack on republicans by extension um but today we have
00:06:05.920
you know we're we're we're past the september 11th memorial we probably have the perpetrator in custody
00:06:16.480
and uh we're seeing a lot of uh democrats losing their jobs over the way they're they're talking about
00:06:23.920
on social media usually losing their jobs over acting happy that someone was murdered
00:06:30.480
so this does not of course you know compensate for the loss of the human being
00:06:39.520
but it's something i mean if you were the family you'd be at least a little bit i don't want to say
00:06:46.160
happy but you know you you'd feel some comfort from knowing that the perpetrator had been caught
00:06:53.440
so it's a little bit better now here's something i'm not up to date on because i was preparing
00:07:00.320
preparing for this when news was breaking can anybody tell me were the 4chan people right
00:07:07.840
because the 4chan people had done their own analysis tried to find the perp based on the photographs and
00:07:13.440
some other stuff and they had matched some specific person a trans trans person and they allege
00:07:26.160
we'll see if i can read your so it's not the same person right okay good all right thank you kevin
00:07:33.440
and bono and the others so i'm being told in the comments that 4chan did not get the right answer
00:07:40.880
so that opens the following question they 4chan thought it was a trans shooter
00:07:48.080
which my first impression was it's not a little bit on the nose
00:07:53.360
you know it's a little too perfect because it's exactly what you would have guessed when i heard that
00:07:59.760
charlie kirk got shot my first assumption was oh radicalized trans shooter
00:08:06.480
didn't you think that i mean if you just watch the news enough you you sort of just automatically
00:08:14.160
leap to that it's not fair i mean it's not fair to trans people they're not shooters generally
00:08:20.640
speaking but it's the first thing i thought of and so i was trying to keep my mouth shut about it
00:08:27.360
until we knew a little bit more but as far as we know the person in custody because we have a name and
00:08:34.240
now we've got pictures of them and stuff the person in custody is not trans right as far as we know
00:08:40.960
the the only picture i saw of him there was no trans indication so what i heard is that uh the
00:08:49.520
family priest i think it was or minister religious person recognized the person and called the person's
00:08:57.440
father who it turns out who it turns out has worked in law enforcement for decades so the father being a
00:09:05.840
patriot first negotiated with his son we're told to turn himself in and i guess that happened
00:09:12.880
now negotiate is probably you know a weak word he probably didn't give him a choice
00:09:18.480
you know i'm sure he told them you either turn yourself in or i turn you in but you're getting turned
00:09:24.320
in that's my guess of how it went now an interesting side factor is that just before it was announced
00:09:34.960
that they caught the the guy bill akman had announced that he would give a million dollars for whoever could
00:09:42.400
help them find the guy now what happens if the guy's father claims tries to claim the million dollars
00:09:52.320
because he legitimately is the one who turned him in you know the the priest i think it was a priest or minister
00:10:00.480
um didn't turn him in he he did what was smarter which was calling the father that was the better move
00:10:08.720
but probably doesn't qualify for the million dollars because authorities were not you know
00:10:15.280
not uh brought into it at that point but what if the father says hey i turned him in where's my million dollars
00:10:22.320
because i'm going to need a million dollars to help my son on his defense to pay for the lawyers so it's
00:10:29.200
entirely possible that bill akman is going to pay for the defense of the murderer of charlie kirk i don't
00:10:36.880
think he'll do it if i if i had to guess i would think he would not pay the million dollars or the father
00:10:44.240
wouldn't ask for it maybe but that's it's within the realm of possibility which is crazy i mean that's just
00:10:53.680
crazy all right um let's see what else do we know uh so we don't know the motive yet but i remember
00:11:05.760
trump said he thought that he did know the motive but he wasn't positive or not willing to say it yet
00:11:12.400
do you think we know the motive or is it just obvious he's just uh anti-trumper anti-charlie
00:11:19.920
kirker and he's a little crazy does anybody want to take bets whether the shooter is on
00:11:28.080
antidepressants and anybody want to take bets because there's probably an 80 chance that he's on
00:11:36.640
antidepressants wouldn't you say probably 80 chance doesn't mean for sure but i'll bet statistically
00:11:44.960
it's at least 80 chance so that's something we're gonna have to pay attention to if it turns out
00:11:51.120
if it turns out you know we don't know yet so everything is still fog of war so anything i tell
00:11:58.560
you you probably better check it on the news because i'm just using uh reports that were rapidly coming in
00:12:05.600
before i came went live so let's talk about some more stuff related to that uh i saw a useful uh
00:12:13.040
post by stephen molyneux uh explaining why we feel the way we feel and it sounded right to me he says
00:12:21.600
your body thinks you were at war and your village is being invaded because normally violence is something
00:12:29.120
we hear about um but we rarely see that clear of a video that happens to be somebody who's beloved at
00:12:38.480
least to a big part of the country so um seven says we're reacting to it as a as if we're currently
00:12:47.760
in a village under attack and that does sound right to me yeah it sounds it sounds like the the video and the
00:12:56.320
continuous reinforcement because it's in the news it's the biggest story we're we're talking about
00:13:02.400
it continuously which makes you think of the video of the actual death you know makes you think of all
00:13:08.720
that stuff so yeah we're we're basically putting ourselves in a middle of the war situation and your
00:13:17.120
body and your brain are reacting to it so if you have a chance today would be a really good day to try
00:13:24.960
to clear your mind you know not forgetting about charlie kirk that's not what we're talking about
00:13:31.360
but just clear your mind make sure you get outside today try to try to get a little exercise try to eat
00:13:37.440
right um if you can get some sleep tonight because you probably need to take care of yourself this is
00:13:44.880
this is a big blow to the you know body america and uh you can feel it
00:13:51.120
anyway um so we saw some video of the killer but that's sort of irrelevant now because they think
00:13:59.920
they have them so yesterday i was hearing uh that the the person that 4chan thought was the bad guy
00:14:10.800
but we now know was not um allegedly the story was that on soundcloud which is an online place you can
00:14:19.440
store music that on soundcloud uh that that person that they thought was guilty uh had a song called
00:14:27.200
charlie kirk is dead at 31. now when i heard that the first time i said there's a pattern that that
00:14:37.040
recognized that i recognize there do you know what the pattern is let's let's see if you recognize the
00:14:43.440
pattern too if you were trying to determine if it's true or bs the claim is that soundcloud had a song
00:14:52.080
before the murder this is this is a key part i forgot to tell you that before the murder
00:14:58.480
he already had a song on his uh music list called charlie kirk is dead at 31. now
00:15:06.240
do you believe that that's really on soundcloud and that somebody really had that all right here's
00:15:13.520
the pattern and i don't know i don't know what's true yet so i'm still speculating a little bit but
00:15:19.760
uh if that's not the perpetrator do you think that that song is real too i don't know it's exactly the
00:15:28.560
kind of rumor that you hear that you hear in this later debunked as soon as i heard that he had you
00:15:36.560
know that that thing before the murder i go that's i've seen this pattern before the pattern is that
00:15:43.520
this is one of the easier things for some troll to make up just out of nothing so it has that troll
00:15:50.640
made it up kind of quality to it whenever you see the the dates are weird or impossible like how could
00:15:56.480
they know or anything those are almost always false could it be that the song exists it's just not the
00:16:03.920
shooter well maybe i mean it's not impossible but it fits the pattern of things that are usually fake
00:16:11.840
you know not every time maybe but usually this weird date related thing how could it happen then it
00:16:18.800
almost always turns out it didn't happen that's usually the explanation all right um as you
00:16:26.320
know tmz got a little heat because they were live streaming when the news came in that charlie had
00:16:33.200
passed and there was the sound at exactly that time of his staff cheering in a nearby room and people
00:16:41.760
naturally jumped to the assumption that the reason they were cheering is that they're bad people and
00:16:47.200
they were cheering the death of a human being that's what it felt like well harvey levin the boss
00:16:54.160
um went online to explain that they were not laughing or cheering i guess cheering that they were not
00:17:01.840
cheering at charlie kirk's death they were cheering because they were watching a car chase and something
00:17:08.960
happened in the car chase that made them cheer to which i say do people cheer for car chases no matter
00:17:17.120
what happens have you ever what happens have you ever heard of that have you ever have you ever thought
00:17:21.120
to yourself yeah because you watched a car chase that went the way you wanted it to i've never heard of that
00:17:29.280
but here's uh here's my take uh i think i've told you this before i i owe or owed tmz a professional
00:17:42.880
kindness um when i say i owed him it's sort of the law of reciprocity because tmz once did me a favor
00:17:52.880
which is there was some controversy that somebody thought i said something this was years ago
00:17:58.160
and the only news related entity that called me to check to see if the rumor was true it wasn't true
00:18:06.800
it was literally not true um was tmz they were the only ones who checked by asking me you know do you
00:18:15.120
want to say something about this i said yeah it's just none of it's true here's here's what really is
00:18:20.080
true and then once i told them what was true they said oh okay and they didn't cover the story but a lot
00:18:27.280
of other news entities did cover the story which was not true it was fake news so they treated me right
00:18:36.800
when nobody else was and i always said to myself all right someday maybe i'm gonna repay this
00:18:44.960
i owe you one and uh so so yesterday i posted that uh i owed him one and i'm gonna take harvey's uh
00:18:54.560
word for it now i think there's a deeper level to it because we have to assume that harvey knew the truth
00:19:02.320
but that would assume that his employees told him the truth do you believe that the employees
00:19:09.840
at risk of being fired were going to say oh yeah harvey god man darn we shouldn't have done that but
00:19:15.840
yeah yeah we were cheering the death of a human being do you expect that his employees would have told
00:19:22.400
them the truth if that was the truth i don't know if it was do you think they would have told them
00:19:27.120
the truth i don't i don't but i don't think that harvey is a liar i i think maybe he was just passing
00:19:36.720
along what they told him and usually you sort of motivated to want to believe it right because he
00:19:43.600
doesn't want to fire his longtime staff and put himself out of business and be disgraced forever
00:19:48.960
so i feel like if you're gonna blame harvey maybe it's for let's say a little bit of intentional
00:19:58.080
gullibility you know being a little bit too willing to believe something that doesn't look true to any of
00:20:04.800
us so at the same time that i give him uh i won't say i give him a pass but i'm gonna take harvey as
00:20:13.040
telling the truth he's wrong probably but probably he's telling you the truth that that his staff
00:20:20.640
told him which doesn't make it the truth but it would mean that the staff would be the responsible
00:20:27.040
ones now i have mixed feelings about this and i'll talk more about other people getting fired and the
00:20:34.320
bad reactions and stuff like that they're really bad but i feel like i feel like all of you are just
00:20:43.440
kidding yourselves if you think there's there's no situation in which you would cheer for the death
00:20:48.800
of another human really really nobody there's not a single person in the world that you would cheer if
00:20:58.240
you heard they died if you heard that hitler died in his bunker wouldn't make you happy if if you heard
00:21:06.080
that uh um well i don't want to name names because then i'll be part of the bad guys but you don't think
00:21:12.480
there's somebody that you believe is so bad for the world that you would literally be and act happy if
00:21:21.680
that person had a let's say unexpected end and probably you know i would say a solid you know
00:21:31.280
half or two-thirds of you would not be that kind of person you would not be but it's a big world
00:21:38.480
so i would imagine that almost anybody dying would get about a third of the public to act like they're
00:21:43.840
happy if they were on the other the other side from the that person now here's here's my experience
00:21:51.120
one of the reasons i didn't want to announce that i had terminal cancer which at the moment seems to
00:21:57.040
be in some kind of weird temporary remission but one of the reasons i didn't want to announce it
00:22:03.840
when i'd known it for months is that i knew that bad people would be happy about it i knew that bad
00:22:11.360
people would be happy that i announced i had terminal cancer what do you think happened do you do you
00:22:19.280
think anybody act happy about it yes they did yes it was fairly common and it happened and it continues
00:22:26.720
to this day that in the comments on x people will mention something that clearly shows they're happy
00:22:33.840
about the prospect of me dying a painful death are you surprised by that i feel like we should stop
00:22:42.560
pretending we're all shocked and surprised if you're shocked and surprised that people act happy about
00:22:49.360
the death of the people that they disagree with what planet have you been living on are you just
00:22:55.120
pretending to be shocked let's talk more about that and again i'm not i'm not defending anybody if it sounds
00:23:03.520
like that i'm just saying we live in a world in which yeah a huge number of people are going to celebrate the
00:23:08.960
death of somebody who's on the other side you know when bin laden got taken out no i'm not comparing charlie
00:23:16.160
kirk to bin laden that's not how fucking analogies work analogies work because there's one thing about
00:23:23.600
them that might be useful or illuminating it's not because all the things are the same that's not
00:23:30.080
what an analogy is all right so uh representative uh elan omar said that uh george that uh charlie kirk
00:23:40.000
quote uh downplayed the death of george floyd he opposed juneteenth and he once said guns save lives
00:23:47.600
after uh after a school shooting he said guns save lives so elan omar wants us to know that hey
00:23:58.080
you know maybe he kind of had it coming so she's reprehensible what about stephen king
00:24:07.120
notable social media user and trump hater stephen king said um about charlie kirk now this is not true
00:24:20.160
so this is stephen king spreading a really terrible lie he said quote in an ex post he advocated stoning
00:24:28.400
gays to death just saying now i don't have to do any research to know that charlie the charlie kirk
00:24:36.560
did not did not did not recommend stoning anybody that would be literally the opposite of who he is
00:24:45.360
was and whoops sorry cat just fell off the desk in my lap so ted cruz jumped all over stephen king on
00:24:57.280
x he says you are a horrible evil twisted liar to which i say stephen king is a horrible twisted evil liar
00:25:07.200
i thought have you read his work if you've read his work that's not a stretch i mean i don't think you
00:25:14.720
could write what he writes unless you were a quote horrible evil twisted liar i mean that that stuff
00:25:21.120
comes from somewhere um but ted cruz points out that uh charlie king did not say that and he says uh your
00:25:29.760
party which you shamelessly shield for sent a hundred billion to the ayatollah who does routinely murder
00:25:36.400
homosexuals why are you so dishonest and filled with hate i i do have a real question about that
00:25:44.240
does it sound to you like like stephen king is smart enough to write the books he's allegedly writing
00:25:51.760
does it seem not to you or do you wonder if you know he had a horrible accident when he was walking
00:25:58.720
down the street one day there was a some vehicle hit him and he was terribly injured do you wonder if
00:26:04.880
maybe he got a concussion or something because i'm trying to square the fact that he's one of the
00:26:11.360
most successful authors in the history of the united states that's true everybody would agree with that
00:26:18.240
with the fact that he's also a huge fucking moron how could both of those be true i mean you could
00:26:25.760
you could imagine that you could disagree with them but that's different from being a huge
00:26:30.480
fucking moron he's just a huge fucking moron so yeah okay you're on it you're ahead of me the rumor
00:26:41.520
in the publishing world is that he hasn't written a book in a long time that they're they're all
00:26:47.520
ghost written now i don't have confirmation of that but try to explain it any other way can you
00:26:55.600
i can't to be the most uh the the only explanation that fits the observed facts is that he's not
00:27:03.280
capable of writing the books that have his name on it that and there's an ordinary explanation because
00:27:10.320
people at his point of life if they write fiction it doesn't work for non-fiction so well but if you're
00:27:16.160
a fiction writer uh and you've put down a bunch of books legitimately at some point you slow down
00:27:23.520
and then your publisher says you know if we could have two of your books a year instead of one
00:27:31.040
wouldn't that be great all we need is to have somebody pretend to be you and write a book
00:27:35.760
so that's i'm guessing that's what happened but i don't know
00:27:42.400
so there are numerous stories of teachers and people associated with schools of various types who are
00:27:50.960
getting canceled meaning fired for saying horrible things about essentially being happy or saying it
00:27:59.440
was justified that charlie kirk got assassinated what do you think about that that people are losing
00:28:08.560
their jobs all over the place well let me tell you the thing that is most shocking about that
00:28:14.880
the most shocking thing is that the people who spoke out that way believed they wouldn't get fired
00:28:24.480
i think they were all surprised which means they've been living entirely within a bubble in which they
00:28:32.480
thought other people would agree with that are you kidding me they they thought they were in the bubble of
00:28:40.400
reality where uh let's say that hitler was an american and he died would you feel bad about saying thank god
00:28:51.120
hitler died no you wouldn't because you would assume that almost every single person would agree with you
00:28:58.880
so it would be easy to say that these people are saying it in public for the world to see
00:29:04.960
as if that's what a normal person would think how how hypnotized would you have to be
00:29:14.720
so in my mind anyway and i think i've said it on line at least once i i think of these people as the
00:29:21.360
hypnotized hitlerians hypnotized hitlerians you can drop the hypnotized if you need to but the hitlerians are
00:29:30.880
people who live in this little world where they think hitler actually came to power in the united
00:29:36.240
states because so many bad people on the left have been saying that people should know better so
00:29:44.240
i actually have some weird empathy for these teachers getting fired for saying horrendous things
00:29:51.120
about charlie kirk because they actually think they're in a different reality than they are
00:29:57.840
how do you think you're in a different reality is it because you individually had some mental problem
00:30:04.000
probably not it's probably on really a predictable outcome of the rhetoric that we're seeing from the
00:30:11.600
left it's the most predictable outcome that people would believe it as literal all the hitler stuff oh
00:30:18.080
it's literally as bad as hitler we better do something about it
00:30:20.640
so i would say the people getting canceled are in their own way although you know our system is
00:30:29.920
that you have to hold them responsible i'm not saying they're not responsible they are responsible
00:30:35.120
but they are also victims because they've been hypnotized to believe something hideous and going
00:30:41.680
through life imagine them going through life thinking that they live in a world that had been taken over by
00:30:47.760
some hitler character i i don't even know what that would feel like but it would certainly distort
00:30:54.640
your opinions and actions well there's a little fake news yesterday we can correct ben shapiro says he is
00:31:01.920
not canceling his planned college events and uh he did a really good job of cursing
00:31:10.080
you know i've been making fun of democrats for doing this artificial cursing you know they're just trying
00:31:16.960
to work a curse word in there because they've been told that that's how you act tough oh if i curse more
00:31:24.800
people really love me now and they just do a terrible job of cursing well ben shapiro who i've never heard
00:31:31.520
curse have you have you ever heard ben shapiro curse on in a public way i don't know that it's never
00:31:40.960
happened but i've never heard it i don't think it's common but he dropped one uh on a little video which
00:31:48.000
was explaining that he's not canceling his college events he said uh we'll never stop debating and
00:31:53.680
discussing we'll never stop standing up for what america is and she should be and we will never let
00:31:59.520
charlie's voice die and then he said to those who would stop us i have two words fuck you really well
00:32:08.240
as a connoisseur of cursing if you use it sparingly and you use it surprisingly and you use it
00:32:21.520
like you've been there before like you've used the word before you can sell it i mean it's what trump
00:32:27.280
does trump does trump sells it perfectly because he uses it just enough and then when he drops it
00:32:35.600
and you know trump uses a f-bomb you you feel like he's used that word before like it feels organic
00:32:45.040
and ben pulled that off so that's a good use of cursing
00:32:49.680
um michael schellenberg is uh saying that uh we're going to need some kind of responsibility
00:32:59.600
here we're not going to be happy uh unless those responsible are held accountable and when he says
00:33:06.400
those responsible he doesn't mean just the shooter he means whatever caused the atmosphere to be so
00:33:13.520
uh hit larian as i like to say um he said look i think it's not likely to happen but the people that
00:33:21.840
did this dehumanization need to take responsibility for it well are the democrats taking responsibility for
00:33:31.440
uh ramping up the rhetoric that the nazis must be stopped no the opposite they're saying that uh it's
00:33:40.720
trump's fault for raising the temperature of the rhetoric and that well you know you just got to
00:33:46.000
expect that trump gets everybody worked up what do you expect okay um but i'm uh i'm firmly on the mike
00:33:58.080
cernovich side of things now and by the way if you're looking for what do we do and you know who's leading
00:34:04.560
us and who's telling us how to act and how do we get to a better place i would follow cernovich
00:34:11.600
so he seems to be the only person i'm seeing who's saying all right here are some real things we can
00:34:18.560
do and these will make a difference and the real things he wants to do uh involves uh some kind of a
00:34:27.840
rico-like investigation of the money flow from the evil billionaires to you know all the messaging
00:34:36.240
basically i think that would be the way to say it so it does seem like the democrat organization is a
00:34:44.080
criminal organization now i don't think that it's necessarily organized for that purpose i think each
00:34:52.160
person is just doing what's you know good for that one person but for reasons i don't understand
00:34:58.640
you see rampant crime everywhere from the local politics to all the hoaxes that they run to all the
00:35:05.760
fake news i mean it's just non-stop criminal behavior now there are of course there are also republicans
00:35:14.080
who break the law but there's more likely they're accused of breaking the law without doing it where
00:35:19.760
there's some lawfare involved the the uh the difference is striking to me am i just imagining
00:35:27.360
that that there's so much uh illegality and sketchy stuff and some of it's not tactically
00:35:33.760
illegal maybe you know flowing money dark money uh laundering it through the ngos until it comes back
00:35:40.480
into politics and and then goes back into the ngos and then back into politics but basically it's coming
00:35:46.320
out of our pockets the taxpayers uh in some cases in other cases the billionaires are behind it but i would
00:35:54.320
agree that the billionaire democrat funding people are the source of the evil because if you take the
00:36:04.320
money away the rest just collapses and they are the money and by now they know exactly what they're doing
00:36:12.720
right they can see it if you were one of the big you know democrat backers and you're calling uh trump
00:36:20.160
hitler you know what you did there's no way in the world that this is unrelated to the rhetoric the
00:36:28.080
democrats will lie to you about that because they apparently are huge lying criminal organization that
00:36:35.040
needs to be recode so here's uh i told you that i was going to dedicate my energy toward dismantling the
00:36:44.400
democrat party to be clear i want the democrat party to be reconstituted as a reputable you know a
00:36:53.200
reputable organization that can compete with republicans because i think we're all better off if there's
00:37:00.000
you know legitimate competition right now it's not legitimate competition right now it's one side
00:37:06.080
getting stuff done and the other side just criminals liars criminals frauds hoaxers it's not even close
00:37:13.920
to anything like competition it's just there's evil on one side you know it's and again it's not like
00:37:21.920
the republicans do everything right and there's no criminals there but there's as far as i could tell
00:37:28.160
there's just a world of difference i just don't see even accusations against republicans that are anywhere
00:37:35.120
in this domain at all it was not have you heard of the republicans funding a bunch of ngos they do i mean
00:37:42.560
i think it happens but it's not much of a story so it must be a small amount
00:37:47.680
did you lock the front door check close the garage door yep installed window sensors smoke
00:37:56.320
sensors and hd cameras with night vision no and you set up credit card transaction alerts a secure vpn
00:38:01.840
for a private connection and continuous monitoring for our personal info on the dark web uh i'm looking
00:38:07.440
into it stress less about security choose security solutions from telus for peace of mind at home
00:38:13.200
and online visit telus.com total security to learn more conditions apply
00:38:18.400
so here's what you can do so and certain eventually is uh showing leadership on that so pay attention to
00:38:27.760
that nothing happens until first you have an idea of it concept of it and what he is doing is planting
00:38:36.320
in the public's mind the idea that a rico case against the billionaires funding all the evil that's
00:38:43.680
coming out of the democrat side is a um legitimate useful practical thing that could really be done in
00:38:53.120
the real world because it's really hard to get the government or anything to do something that nobody's
00:38:59.120
ever talked about or thought about or wrote about there's no book about it that sort of thing so that's
00:39:04.240
what uh certain eventually is doing for us he is he's uh promoting the idea which is step one step one is
00:39:14.160
you have to have the idea in your head that it's a possibility right so he's doing that for you and i'm
00:39:21.920
gonna back him on that as much as possible so i'm i'm trying to boost that signal i too
00:39:27.200
agree that you should consider a major rico case to dismantle the democrat machine at least the
00:39:36.160
the funding part of it that seems to be completely corrupt um
00:39:43.120
and uh if you can get this into a national debate which is not but it could be by the time it gets on say
00:39:51.360
tv news and maybe maybe there's some point where trump who's no doubt watching the action there might
00:39:59.360
be some point where he goes okay now you've you've laid the the groundwork and now i can say it do you
00:40:07.440
remember that i did that technique um with using the military against the cartels and several years ago
00:40:15.840
when i said we should use the military against the cartels i was thinking mexico at the time
00:40:21.120
that people said scott oh you you crazy bastard yeah it's unthinkable it's unthinkable we're definitely
00:40:28.320
not going to use the military against the cartels and i kept saying it until it became a thing and then
00:40:37.600
trump said it and people dismissed him immediately the first time he said it but it was in their heads
00:40:44.800
so by the next time it comes around because let's say there are lots more deaths from overdoses or
00:40:50.000
whatever so it's always coming back around the next time you hear it you've already heard it
00:40:56.160
you think oh i i guess it's an option i mean i'm not in favor of it but it's part of the conversation
00:41:03.200
now it's an option so that would be the second step where people go from well i heard it once
00:41:10.640
to well i guess it's just it's on the table it's one of the options maybe i don't like it but it's
00:41:15.040
on the table and then the the phase after that is it's more than on the table right so there it has
00:41:24.480
to go through a few transitions from wildly impractical there's no way that's going to happen
00:41:30.560
it would rip rip apart the country if you tried all that stuff you're going to get used to it
00:41:37.280
it you're going to get used to it and then it's going to happen all right so um on the positive
00:41:48.320
side because it's not all negative the green bay packers um and the nfl had a moment of silence
00:41:56.240
for at the uh carolina uh oh and but the carolina panthers comms employee got fired for bad comments
00:42:06.000
about charlie kirk and then you heard about the was it the yankees who did a moment of silence for for
00:42:12.000
him so the sports world aside from that one fired comms employee and i appreciate the firing
00:42:18.720
um the they look like they're oriented in the right direction so i'm going to give them credit
00:42:27.840
overall and then patrick mahomes i saw breaking news that the chief's quarterback said that he would
00:42:36.640
promise to pay for both of charlie kirk's children's education and living expenses now i assume that's not
00:42:44.480
forever but that's a hell of an offer that's a hell of an offer so yeah the the sporting world i'm going
00:42:52.480
to give a an a for correct behavior good job sporting world and mahomes in particular um
00:43:03.040
now but i will say i i think this is worth saying that it's human nature that we've all
00:43:10.480
kind of made the story about ourselves so there's a lot of let's say signaling and displaying and
00:43:19.840
showing that you're the one who has the most moral opinion and how it affected you and how you were his
00:43:26.960
best friend so i'm gonna do it too so don't don't call me a hypocrite because i'm calling myself a
00:43:33.360
hypocrite you know i already got there first um it's almost impossible to not make it about yourself
00:43:41.520
but it feels creepy to me even when i do it because i'm going to do it even harder than i've done it
00:43:47.360
even today i'm going to make it about myself a little bit um but you wonder if that's you know where
00:43:55.680
your brain should be it it doesn't seem right but on the other hand we can't avoid it so sort of a
00:44:03.760
sort of an unavoidable ick so tim pool is telling us on x that he was swatted 15 times in one year
00:44:12.160
he had a bomb squatted his studio twice he had to evacuate for three hours once during his show
00:44:18.000
and there was a man in address who attacked one of his employees at his old location they have armed
00:44:23.280
guards now and he said this is how it's been because of the left
00:44:29.600
now arguably that's tim pool making it about himself but i would also argue you need to know that
00:44:37.600
you know so of course i want to know that and of course it you know it's this is really useful
00:44:42.800
context so i'm not i'm not making fun of tim pool um this is really useful context um
00:44:49.760
um but i wonder how many other conservative podcasters are having this problem i have not
00:44:58.000
had that problem now i don't want to i shouldn't break it up because then i'll have the problem but uh
00:45:06.720
makes me wonder is it only because i have a smaller audience so the left sort of doesn't notice me or
00:45:14.080
doesn't think it matters or something i don't know or is it because uh i spend less time talking
00:45:20.000
about trans issues because i think i think that's what really brings in the haters more than anything
00:45:26.960
else all right i saw pierce morgan say on x he goes i'm so shocked by the huge quantity of social
00:45:35.840
media posts and clips of woke fanatics gleefully celebrating charlie kirk's murder so brazen blah blah
00:45:42.400
let me ask you are you shocked how could you be shocked of all the things that could surprise you
00:45:51.120
you were suddenly noticing pierce that uh there are people on social media who are the worst people in
00:45:57.680
the world well we're just figuring this out this week how in the world could you be shocked can we stop
00:46:06.880
pretending that you thought human beings wouldn't act this way of course human beings act this way
00:46:14.480
and as i said earlier probably there's somebody who could die that most of us would celebrate we're
00:46:21.520
not above it so uh well i don't like it when they do i mean it's just hideous you know try not to be
00:46:31.520
shocked i mean really who was shocked by that um i saw a post by fisher king i often quote fisher king
00:46:42.880
he's a really good follow if you want to follow him fisher is spelled with a c in the middle f-i-s-c-h-e-r-k-i-n-g
00:46:55.120
fisher king one word has lots of good thoughts and he said uh destroying the lives and careers of
00:47:01.920
people celebrating this political murder is essential uh the people doing this have participated
00:47:08.800
in cancel culture but never felt it they need to feel it they need to know what it's like to have a
00:47:15.600
mob ruin your life and i thought to myself yeah i wonder what that feels like to have a mob cancel you
00:47:23.600
and ruin your life what would that feel like oh wait i know what that feels like
00:47:32.320
yeah i do know what that feels like and yes um it probably is productive to return the favor
00:47:41.440
so even though i completely understand that they're hypnotized and they're victims in their own way too
00:47:46.960
you still have to do it that's just the way things work you can't let evil just go unchecked even if
00:47:55.120
the reason somebody's evil is you know it wasn't their fault you still have to check it so yeah they
00:48:01.600
need to feel the pain and uh it needs to be mutually assured destruction
00:48:07.520
i saw robbie starbuck say that uh and i've heard a bunch of people say this actually that charlie kirk
00:48:16.160
was likely to someday be president how many of you believe that charlie kirk inevitably would have
00:48:23.920
been president someday might have been in 30 years when he's 61 but did you think that i i not only
00:48:32.320
thought that but i was planning to do a segment on the show before before he was killed uh like that
00:48:39.680
week that very week i was planning to do a segment where i said oh my god this guy can be president
00:48:45.520
someday almost guaranteed like i was literally planning to do a show about charlie kirk in which i was talking
00:48:54.960
about his future and his potential because he was a very impressive individual um his his skill stack
00:49:05.040
was almost second to none i mean it was incredible so yeah um i believe the the democrats probably i
00:49:13.920
assume that this is a democrat shooter probably took a potential president off the board do you know how big
00:49:20.480
that is i mean just think about the size of that it's it's sort of like going back in time to you know
00:49:28.560
i always say kill hitler because it's the opposite of that but that's that's a hell of a play to take
00:49:36.080
out their you know one of the strongest players who have ever been on the board that's a hell of a play
00:49:41.600
let's see so chris cuomo was going after elon musk he did a little video in which he said
00:49:56.880
essentially he said he wouldn't be surprised if elon musk's rhetoric got him murdered as well now
00:50:04.240
obviously he's not in favor of him being murdered but it's not a good idea to put that idea in people's
00:50:10.960
heads unfortunately it's probably already there and uh cuomo said chris said when the richest man
00:50:17.440
who controls the most powerful platform writes that quote the left is the party of murder that's
00:50:22.720
what elon musk posted the other day the left is the party of murder he says when that happens
00:50:32.080
i'm not going to excuse it because he because he's autistic so i don't know why you have to bring
00:50:38.480
that in there and he says uh autistic people are not all morally bankrupt okay i i feel like he's down
00:50:46.720
he's he's on the wrong path with this criticism um
00:50:53.280
yeah and he goes he has in my opinion so this is chris cuomo talking about elon musk
00:50:58.800
he says he has in my opinion exhausted his usefulness wow exhausted his usefulness
00:51:09.040
are you kidding are we already living on mars he's the only person who's literally has a
00:51:17.840
concrete plan in action to save the future of the planet because we know at some point the planet will
00:51:25.040
become uninhabitable that's there's no way around it so yeah he's exhausted his usefulness really
00:51:35.520
um and then musk responded to that he goes by implying that i might be murdered by the radical left
00:51:42.000
cuomo is exactly proving my point yeah that's exactly right so the so-called autistic guy sure has
00:51:52.320
a better read of the room than the the guy who was allegedly not um if you talk about just the
00:52:00.400
concept yeah i can see why he'd be murdered doesn't that make it way more likely he will be you're putting
00:52:07.040
that you're putting the thought in people's heads uh so as i said you know i gave a big talk about that
00:52:15.840
just earlier in this podcast the first step for persuasion any kind of persuasion the first step
00:52:23.600
is planting the seed planting the seed making it something that people are thinking about now i was
00:52:32.480
i had to debate with myself whether to talk about it because it also makes it also plants the seed so
00:52:40.160
the more the more the more attention it gets the more dangerous it is but elon himself has replied to
00:52:46.000
it and you know chris cuomo's got a big footprint so i feel like it's already out there but i agree with
00:52:54.560
elon um that he made the point he made elon's point by talking about this topic all right um the state
00:53:06.480
department the u.s state department has decided to borrow foreigners who glorify the charlie kirk
00:53:13.520
assassination what do you think of that do you think people should be barred from the country
00:53:19.680
if they had glorified the assassination of an american leader yes here's the way i would word it
00:53:29.760
if you act like a democrat you're not allowed in the country yeah you didn't say that comment did you
00:53:36.960
the state department literally has a rule that says if you act like a democrat you're not allowed in the
00:53:44.960
country just think about that just think about the fact that the democrats who are here wouldn't be
00:53:55.200
allowed in the allowed in the country some of them would bernie sanders by the way
00:54:02.560
put out a nice little video you know asking for peace appreciate it but he ignored the the base
00:54:09.920
problem the root problem the root problem is the rhetoric the action doesn't happen without the
00:54:15.600
thinking and the you know the ideation and the talking so the the root problem is the way the democrats
00:54:23.120
talk about it and the state department is going after the root problem if you talk about it you
00:54:30.320
don't even get to be in the country so i kind of love the fact that the state department is barring
00:54:37.440
people who act like democrats am i wrong is that too far too much of a summary or a simplification
00:54:45.280
that's what i see the the only reason that they've thought to have a rule to borrow them
00:54:53.040
is because the democrats are doing so much of it they're saying we don't need any more of that so you
00:54:58.800
don't even get to come in the country literally barred from coming in the country if they act like democrats
00:55:05.040
now obviously like i said not all democrats never works that way
00:55:08.560
all right so dave portnoy you all know him from uh barstool sports um he's getting some heat
00:55:22.320
for something he said online that i believe is misinterpreted because what he said is what
00:55:29.200
every one of us agree with but you could you know if you've got a problem with dave portnoy you can
00:55:36.240
you can kind of turn it into something it wasn't so let me talk about that i'm going to defend dave
00:55:42.080
portnoy because we don't need friendly fire the the thing we don't need is to cancel the people that are
00:55:51.920
often largely on our side or at least they're dedicated to free speech and common sense which
00:55:57.200
he is he's a free speech common sense guy you don't want to cancel him even if you disagree but here
00:56:04.000
here's what he got in a little trouble with online and i'm going to defend them when he said quote when
00:56:09.760
i say trump has a huge part in it meaning the the violence he says when i say trump has a huge part
00:56:16.880
in it i don't necessarily mean he's to blame for it but he's so divisive and he went on to say that even
00:56:23.840
his face is divisive like people look at his face and they they get enraged and people hate him so
00:56:30.160
much now the way people are choosing to interpret this is kind of dumb uh they're trying to interpret
00:56:38.560
it as trump is to blame for it because of his rhetoric but that's the opposite of um that he's not
00:56:48.400
to blame he said it directly he said directly he's not to blame but is it true that the divisiveness
00:56:56.000
of trump probably leads to the other side getting violent yes that would be obvious who disagrees with
00:57:06.480
that now it's not trump's fault that he says stuff like we need to close the border but we all absorb
00:57:16.160
we we all observe that that makes uh half the country flip out that would be divisive it's not
00:57:23.840
wrong it's not wrong it just happens to make half the country mad so that's what makes him a great
00:57:33.120
leader the best leaders make big changes there's no such thing as a leader making a big change no matter
00:57:41.760
how awesomely great that change is that isn't divisive divisive means you're making big changes
00:57:49.680
in this case ones that most of the country likes so now let's not argue whether trump is divisive
00:57:58.720
that's just so obvious it doesn't mean it's a flaw it means that people are you know in their little
00:58:05.680
bubble if they see a different bubble they're like oh oh i can't i can't live in this planet with the
00:58:11.440
people in another bubble so the divisiveness comes from the environment when you inject a powerful
00:58:18.960
leader trump's problem is that he's powerful and so that creates more you know more energy so yes he
00:58:27.440
he is one of the variables that absolutely should be considered when you're trying to figure out what's
00:58:34.080
going on here but he's not to blame he doesn't need to change i don't think in my in my opinion he's not
00:58:43.040
over the line but um i i would say that uh nearly a hundred percent of trump supporters would agree with
00:58:52.320
the fact that most great leaders are divisive would you is there anybody who would disagree with that
00:58:59.040
most great leaders are divisive and you wouldn't want it any other way because there's not really any
00:59:07.120
chance it could go any other way we don't all want the same thing so if somebody is a leader and says
00:59:14.240
all right i'm gonna get you this set of things it's a guarantee that there are other people who don't
00:59:20.080
want that set of things to happen of course it's divisive it's not a mistake it's not an error it's not bad
00:59:26.560
leadership it's good leadership that's just what it costs to get stuff done you get divisiveness so
00:59:34.640
let's not take dave portnoy out with friendly fire he's mostly on your side right he's not
00:59:42.640
going to agree with you on all the topics but he's one of the good guys in my opinion
00:59:47.440
although i haven't i haven't blocked on x but i must have been mad at him with something sometime in
00:59:58.400
the past um so i guess uh here's some non charlie kirk stuff finish it off here um i guess memphis is next
01:00:11.680
for the crime fighting from trump so he wants to send the national guard to memphis all right
01:00:19.920
you know every time i don't well it's only happened once so far in dc but if trump can make this a thing
01:00:26.800
that he can say all right i picked the city and i drove the crime rate down i don't know if it stays
01:00:32.800
down but if he can make that a thing man if he can do it just twice then then it's it's a thing
01:00:42.160
and that's going to be fun and i think it will work so we'll see what happens
01:00:48.720
um ryan ruth or routh or whatever it is the attempted assassin of trump the golf course guy
01:00:55.760
um he's he's defending himself and it's just as amusing as you thought it was because he's batshit
01:01:04.320
crazy um so i guess he spent seven minutes rambling about hitler putin sudan and netanyahu
01:01:13.200
um until finally the judge sent the jury away and said ah all right we're not doing this
01:01:20.960
yes now i don't know that routh or ruth has the capability to pull back from that i i think
01:01:29.920
that no matter what he's going to go full crazy um but judge aileen cannons she's got a she's got a
01:01:36.880
handful there so we'll see well the uae is uh had some stern words for israel about israel's
01:01:47.680
bombing of qatar and not of qatar but of the hamas leadership that was
01:01:55.280
safely in qatar but no longer as safely because i think five of them got killed with the bombing
01:02:02.080
so the uae is you know saying you're bad and uh they're saying that uh it killed any hope for gaza
01:02:12.400
hostages so qatar's prime minister said that that the bombing killed any hope for the gaza hostages
01:02:20.400
do you think there was any hope for the gaza hostages you know do you think that maybe
01:02:28.640
maybe we're past hope i don't know i guess there's always hope uh i wouldn't want you to lose hope
01:02:35.360
you know they you know should do everything we can to get them back or they should um but
01:02:43.200
the thing that i shake my head every time i see comments on this why would you assume that israel wants
01:02:50.400
peace like what what would suggest that they want peace now if they if the only way they could get the
01:02:58.960
peace is by letting hamas survive do they want that they don't want that they don't want peace on
01:03:08.800
hamas's terms and those are the only terms offered if the only terms that will be offered are we're not
01:03:15.040
surrendering we want to be in charge when it's all done um and we're not going to release the hostages
01:03:21.120
i i think israel's national best interest which is different from me saying i support it all right
01:03:31.280
if you're new to me i'm not saying i support this i'm observing that israel's national best interest
01:03:38.400
probably isn't peace it's definitely in the best interest of the hostages you know it might increase
01:03:44.560
the odds that they they get released but i feel like israel's you know hundred year advantage is
01:03:52.160
just to gain land gain control over it and reduce the uh reduce the risk from hamas i think that's their
01:04:01.360
national interest and probably that will come at the price of maybe some some hostages that you could
01:04:09.760
imagine might have been released if they had let hamas reconstitute and essentially do what they did
01:04:16.560
before so i don't expect that what why does anybody think that israel is pushing for some kind of quick
01:04:23.280
peace plan to me that would look like a mistake geopolitically strategy wise i'm not telling you my
01:04:31.440
preference this is not my preference i don't have a preference i'm just observing that they seem to be
01:04:38.720
acting in their own best interest and they're supposed to that's that's what the government
01:04:43.760
of every country should be doing acting in their own best interest they're doing a good job of it
01:04:48.960
but you know if you've got if you've got opinions about the moral or ethical boundaries that's for you to
01:04:56.880
discuss with whoever you want to discuss it with but i don't believe that those are factors in
01:05:02.800
international affairs in international affairs everybody breaks agreements if it's for their
01:05:11.120
country's benefit so nobody really acts morally or ethically in terms of international affairs it's
01:05:19.120
that's not really something that happens so pretending that our moral or ethical opinions in this country
01:05:26.960
should somehow have some effect in some other country that's just silly you know that as soon as you get
01:05:32.800
into that um you know moral ethical domain it's just blah blah blah
01:05:41.840
well i don't follow brazil politics too much so what i know is that uh former president uh
01:05:48.960
uh bolsonaro has now been i guess he's gone through the court system entirely and he will go to jail
01:05:58.320
um i don't know exactly what he's being uh accused of or whether it's just lawfare i believe trump
01:06:06.000
believes that the charges are more political you know lawfare kind of thing it's probably reminding
01:06:11.600
him of his own situation so since i don't have any uh insight into brazil i'll just point out that uh
01:06:21.600
i think brazil's sort of on thin ice because i don't think that trump is going to be happy with them
01:06:29.760
jailing the former president so we'll see what happens but i don't know i wouldn't be surprised if
01:06:38.800
there's a little tariff action going on there pretty soon we'll see
01:06:44.400
all right cat apparently meta and tick-tock were successful defeating the european commission
01:06:55.040
who wanted to charge them for supervising them so you know europe has this digital services act
01:07:02.480
that uh would really penalize the big platforms the digital platforms for allowing what they would
01:07:09.920
call misinformation and hate speech and stuff on the platforms now there's no way that these companies
01:07:16.960
could stay in business if they had to police all of that it's just too hard to police um so it's a big
01:07:24.480
deal that they don't have to pay for their own policing so that's worth something um but they still have
01:07:31.920
to at this point they would still have to follow the european union rules or else pay fines or be
01:07:39.360
blocked from from doing business over there so i feel like europe has become our frenemy
01:07:48.160
i mean they're not our enemy but they're definitely not our friends right now because this digital
01:07:53.840
services act is that's really that's the pretty uh direct attack on the interests of the united states
01:08:02.800
and they don't have any big digital platforms like this so it's no big deal for europe all they're
01:08:09.520
doing is charging american companies that's not cool make your own digital platform europe
01:08:17.840
uh according to new economic thinking there was a study that found that males and female economists
01:08:28.240
have different views is that surprising to you that female economists look at things differently than men
01:08:37.280
now that's no surprise but here's the thing what's the difference between economics and an opinion
01:08:44.480
if it's true that men and women come to different opinions about economics it's not because they're
01:08:51.920
looking at different data it's not because they learned economics wrong if they know economics and they're
01:09:00.080
all looking at the same data what would cause women and men to have different opinions of what to do and
01:09:07.440
what's happening well it sort of tells me that there's not much difference between economics and your
01:09:18.480
because if your opinion could be anywhere no matter what the data is and no matter what the rules of
01:09:24.080
economics are that kind of tells me that it's all bullshit and that you know where you started from
01:09:30.880
is where you're going to end up you know no matter no matter what the data tells you it's like well if i started here
01:09:39.840
according to politico gasoline's gonna hit a 20-year low that's cool i mean if only so we
01:09:48.640
stop complaining about gas i i would love to not hear about gas or eggs ever again unless i'm ordering eggs
01:09:56.400
well germany i don't even believe this story reuters is reporting that germany wants to double its uh
01:10:06.720
its military what would you guess oh what would you guess is the current size of the german army
01:10:18.400
what would you guess the german army how many people do you think they're in it well according to
01:10:26.080
this reuters there are only 62 000 troops in all of germany they only have 62 000 troops is this all
01:10:36.160
because we're afraid if they get to any large military size they'll try to start world war iii that is
01:10:43.920
really not many not many uh troops so i don't know they're only talking about army in this case so
01:10:52.080
maybe they you know maybe if you add the other ones it's not so bad but i didn't know there was any major
01:10:57.360
country that had that few troops i just assume everybody you know i i assume the major countries
01:11:05.040
have you know half a million to a million normally that shocked me so maybe i'm reading something wrong
01:11:13.440
i might give me a fact check on that if you yeah
01:11:26.720
so the the uh european commission uh has allegedly according to brussels signal that's a publication
01:11:36.160
has uh downgraded their their green deal initiatives so it's not that they're you know
01:11:43.840
saying that the climate change doesn't matter but they're de-emphasizing it and more emphasis on
01:11:55.520
so here's what i say cats on the roof you know cats on the roof it's based on a joke but it means that
01:12:05.200
they're signaling that there's some bad news coming in this case the bad news would be for them not for
01:12:11.600
you and it would suggest that they're not so concerned about climate change anymore
01:12:19.200
i i feel like you're just going to see more and more of this
01:12:22.320
um it's not my imagination that the news media has backed off on climate change am i right now part of
01:12:31.200
that might be that the data is not working you know the climate models that did not predict
01:12:36.080
correctly so they're just backing off it could be because you know the politics have changed and
01:12:42.560
the republicans are in charge but that wouldn't affect europe i feel like there yeah it feels like
01:12:48.640
there's a tipping point coming where it will go from climate change of course is real i think the next
01:12:55.920
tip will be well we don't know if it's real or not and then it will go to okay it wasn't wasn't that
01:13:03.200
real that's happening cats on the roof there's a u.s nuclear firm according to interesting engineering
01:13:17.440
they got um just got approval to dig a one mile hole in the ground and drop a little mini nuclear reactor
01:13:26.400
into it and uh uh let's see and uh the first one will be a pilot but they'll be able to produce
01:13:37.760
nuclear electricity i'm sorry though there it's a nuclear power plant that they'll put in a one mile
01:13:44.880
deep hole because that solves a bunch of problems if it's in the hole so what it solves is uh
01:13:52.080
uh um it's safer and it's got you know natural containment and stuff like that but here's the
01:13:59.840
part that really caught my interest so they just got approval and they believe that they'll have their
01:14:05.360
first pilot up and running by july 2026 that's only next year do you believe that there's a startup
01:14:17.200
in the nuclear space that can dig a one mile hole and put a functioning nuclear power plant in it
01:14:26.880
in less than a year how many how many of you think that that can happen
01:14:32.800
well i don't know but if that's possible everything's about ready to change you know because i think nuclear
01:14:41.760
it was always a situation where uh it was going to be nearly impossible to commercialize something
01:14:48.480
until it's not and then when you hit it's not because you've engineered yourself to a better place
01:14:56.640
and then it's going to go wild so if this is true do you know how many holes they're going to have by 2027
01:15:04.480
a lot of holes if it works so it's a pilot program but uh i will be amazed and dazzled if they can get
01:15:13.600
that working in mid-2026 that would be impressive that that would make me feel um
01:15:21.920
faith in american ingenuity again because i'm losing a little faith in our american ingenuity but if we
01:15:29.280
can do that and start building nukes nuclear power plants that that work in less than a year
01:15:37.440
i don't know i think china's got some catching up to do with that if we can do that
01:15:44.080
well nasa is apparently gonna ban chinese citizens from all of its facilities and there's networks and
01:15:52.480
even zoom calls so if you're a chinese citizen even if you're here legally and you're working you know
01:16:00.240
completely legally you will not be allowed anywhere near nasa facilities or even to be on a zoom call
01:16:08.240
why is that well you know you know why and is that a good idea i don't know i mean
01:16:18.080
i mean probably it's probably a good idea all right ladies and gentlemen that's all i got for you is
01:16:26.480
there any topic i left out any any new breaking news in the last hour all right
01:16:38.480
uh american privilege yeah yeah i know germany was told to demilitarize after world war ii but
01:16:45.520
um i thought that might apply to you know not necessarily troop levels but
01:17:00.160
democrats are changing the subject yeah the democrats are trying to talk about health care they got a
01:17:09.360
all right all right ladies and gentlemen i'm going to talk to my beloved
01:17:14.080
what subscribers on locals the rest of you thanks for joining i appreciate it every time you show up
