00:01:29.000 Yes.
00:01:45.000 Russell, controversial conspiracy theorist.
00:01:48.000 Trying to bring real journalism to the American people.
00:01:51.000 Hello, I'm Russell Brand.
00:01:53.000 This is Stay Free with Russell Brand.
00:01:55.000 You are, I hope, an awakening wonder.
00:01:59.000 Although, of course, sometimes being spiritually present merely exacerbates the pain of living in a fallen world.
00:02:07.000 Let me know what you think about that in the comments and the chat.
00:02:10.000 Here and there, as we talk about the recent attack in Belfast, the attempts in the UK to institute new.
00:02:18.000 ID laws via the protection of children, but ultimately, one would imagine to control information transition.
00:02:25.000 We'll try to here and there have a laugh and we'll try to stay in the spirit of greatness in spite of much suffering.

00:02:47.000 The first story we're looking at today is the Increasing violence in the United Kingdom that seems to be, in a sense, focused on migration matters.
00:02:59.000 The first report is from the BBC.
00:03:02.000 Let's have a look.
00:03:03.000 Hello.
00:03:03.000 Houses and vehicles have been torched in Belfast overnight.
00:03:07.000 Some families were forced to leave their homes after a number of demonstrations turned violent.
00:03:13.000 Northern Ireland's First Minister said masked men were burning families out of their homes.
00:03:18.000 The protests came after a knife attack in the north of the city.
00:03:22.000 Which left a man seriously injured in hospital on Monday night.
00:03:26.000 A Sudanese man's been charged with attempted murder.
00:03:29.000 What I'm interested in and what I'll be looking at and invite you to look at as well is the way that this information is utilized and deployed.
00:03:37.000 Is it neutrally rendered in the way one might imagine information being rendered by a state funded organization, the BBC?
00:03:46.000 Although I did recently learn that the BBC also stands for a pornographic acronym, or is a pornographic acronym.
00:03:53.000 That seems inappropriate to go into now.
00:03:56.000 The point is that when the BBC talk about these disturbances in Belfast or the murder of Henry Novak, you can detect an agenda along with the information.
00:04:05.000 Because there is so much media available now, this is inducing a crisis of trust because people will watch what they regard as the mainstream media, whether that's the BBC or one of the other three letter acronyms, for each of which, thank you, for each of which, I bet there's a porn equivalent, and detect, wait.
00:04:25.000 Here's the best example of this phenomenon this one.
00:04:29.000 Check this out.
00:04:31.000 Here, where, excuse me, let me find that.
00:04:38.000 Oh gosh, it's very much like when I was searching out that thing in the Bible.
00:04:44.000 Yeah, this is it.
00:04:45.000 This is it.
00:04:46.000 Listen to this, right?
00:04:46.000 Now, we're talking about this murder in Belfast.
00:04:50.000 Former Social Democratic and Labour Party leader Colin Eastwood has made.
00:04:55.000 This post saying horrific scenes in North Belfast should not be used by English right wing politicians to further their own ends.
00:05:03.000 I don't ever remember them commenting on any of the other hellish things that our community has experienced over the years.
00:05:11.000 In some ways, that is a perfectly reasonable position.
00:05:15.000 If you are Irish or if you live in the north of Ireland, which is still regarded part of Great Britain, which is in itself obviously a highly contested area.
00:05:25.000 Idea when it comes to imperialism, you might not want right wing politicians who, through their patriotism and traditionalism, were always very unsympathetic to the cause of Catholic oriented and Irish nationalist interests in that region, commenting on this just because it's convenient.
00:05:43.000 One can completely understand why you might make that point.
00:05:47.000 But as was pointed out to me earlier when I was discussing this subject, Column Eastwood's Post is in and of itself political.
00:05:56.000 By making a post in which you say the horrific scenes in North Belfast should not be used by English right wing politicians to further their own ends, I don't remember them commenting on any of the other hellish things that community has experienced over the years.
00:06:07.000 You are making a political statement.
00:06:09.000 This is the detritus of the fallen tower of.
00:06:15.000 Fable that we live in now.
00:06:18.000 It's difficult, isn't it, to understand the impact of a climate where when crimes take place, there's often footage of it.
00:06:27.000 There's footage of this stabbing, and some people are calling it attempted beheading in Belfast.
00:06:33.000 There's footage of Henry Novak dying in custody.
00:06:36.000 There's footage of George Floyd dying while being arrested.
00:06:40.000 So now, you have, and like, for example, remember when Minnesota was the thing that we all cared about?
00:06:47.000 There was the footage of the body cam of the police officer and the footage of other people filming the protester.
00:06:54.000 So, even when there's seemingly objective material available, the subject remains contentious because you can project ideas on top of it.
00:07:02.000 And with something like Colm Eastwood here, there is an accompanying post, excuse me, here, where this is pretty good work from Free Jax.
00:07:14.000 He commented on Colm Eastwood's post, said, It's true, people in faraway places shouldn't use.
00:07:19.000 Such deaths to advance their politics.
00:07:22.000 And he has reposted Colin Eastwood's post at the time of the George Floyd murder.
00:07:26.000 Tonight I signed Mayor Brian Tierney's online book of condolence for George Floyd.
00:07:30.000 We must fight racism at every turn.
00:07:34.000 He says, ever turn, actually.
00:07:35.000 Black Lives Matter.
00:07:36.000 Now you can imagine the sort of string of yeah buts that would pour forth if you were to say to Colin Eastwood, Well, isn't it hypocritical that you commented on George Floyd while simultaneously saying that?
00:07:50.000 British, English right wing politician should exploit this violence in Belfast.
00:07:55.000 He would have a reason for why what he did was okay and why he's not a hypocrite.
00:08:02.000 And everyone does, I think, these days when you talk about why it's okay for a certain person to express rage or a certain person to make a statement and not for others.
00:08:12.000 And I reckon that what we're experiencing is the collapse of this model.
00:08:17.000 You cannot sustain centralised, nationalised, or even continent wide bureaucratic.
00:08:25.000 And power models when you have an armed population.
00:08:30.000 It's often said that the Second Amendment arming of the American citizenry somehow contains government tyranny, and that's a fair argument.
00:08:39.000 But now we have a population that's armed with information.
00:08:43.000 Not all of that information is true, not even half of that information is true.
00:08:46.000 But what is possible now is the curating of that information.
00:08:49.000 So, of course, as has been long commented, we live in different information spheres, and it's become unbearably.
00:08:56.000 Unyieldingly contentious and conflict, I think, cyclical conflict is now inevitable, it's all going to be broadcast.
00:09:05.000 And I think that probably what we're going to move towards, and tell me in the comments and chat if you agree with this, is a kind of almost perennial state of crisis and violence where both sides just rigidly defend their position, that no one has any compassion or willingness to listen to alternative views, and that there's no requirement to do that.
00:09:25.000 And I think that in a sense, that's an understandable response to excessive.
00:09:31.000 Centralised authority and power that you can no longer trust.
00:09:34.000 Let's have a look at the rest of this BBC video.
00:09:37.000 And it's due to appear in court later.
00:09:39.000 Dan Johnson is in Belfast and sent this report.
00:09:45.000 This is what a small minority of people in Belfast considered the best response to a serious stabbing.
00:09:53.000 Homes were tired.
00:09:54.000 These idiots thought the best response to a serious stabbing would be to get out on streets and start fires.
00:10:02.000 It's a very condescending and editorialised position to begin with.
00:10:06.000 These events are incapable of being neutrally reported.
00:10:11.000 And these institutions are incapable of reporting them neutrally.
00:10:14.000 You now can choose whether you want to listen to Candice Owens break down race riots or Joe Rogan or, you know, there's people from a variety of different perspectives breaking them down.
00:10:26.000 And probably any one of them, regardless of their biases, would do a better job of the BBC.
00:10:31.000 That's primary goal is the maintenance of its ability to charge a license fee, a sort of a mandatory tax for its own funding.
00:10:39.000 And in general.
00:10:42.000 Bureaucratic centralised systems.
00:10:44.000 You know, like George Carlin said, where interests align, no conspiracy is necessary.
00:10:50.000 Well, the BBC has a kind of institutional interest in not being subject to this tendency of decentralisation.
00:11:00.000 There's a resistance to the truth, the emerging truth, that we don't need a BBC.
00:11:05.000 Not only do we not need a BBC, you don't need a Westminster.
00:11:08.000 Not only do you not need a BBC or Westminster, you don't need any centralised authority, either state or or commercial, that the principle should always be the smallest model possible and the minimum distance between a community and the government, and even the word government's a problem, the administration that administers political decisions.
00:11:31.000 Until that's instantiated, the very, very best you're going to get is pendular swings of violence and conflicts within a limited paradigm.
00:11:40.000 This is the point.
00:11:41.000 I'm going to try and find as many ways of saying it as possible.
00:11:45.000 But you will notice that this theme is inescapable and present in every single news story we cover.
00:11:51.000 Homes were targeted and burned.
00:11:53.000 Families had to be led to safety through the flames, rescued by emergency services risking their lives in the most dangerous situation.
00:12:02.000 It wasn't just homes.
00:12:03.000 Cars were also torched by young masked men in these predominantly unionist streets.
00:12:09.000 But the target here was immigrants.
00:12:12.000 And the message to entirely innocent families was, You're not welcome.
00:12:19.000 In the north of the city, more people were forced to flee, including an African family who've lived here for 20 years.
00:12:27.000 The focus on the innocence of those families, I think, is important.
00:12:32.000 And in a way, you could, if you were to assume ineptitude of the BBC rather than out-and-out perfidiousness, you could assume, well, they're doing a good job.
00:12:43.000 They're simply trying not to inflame the situation.
00:12:46.000 The reason that argument breaks down is for many, many years, the BBC could have been reporting on the issues that are affecting native populations when it comes to migration.
00:12:54.000 They could have been representing the clear frustration that working people in the north of Ireland, in the United Kingdom, elsewhere, were feeling on the subject of migration responsibly without vilifying the working class, the working class upon whom they depend in the main for their funding through the licence fees, unless a significant portion of the population.
00:13:13.000 But they didn't do that.
00:13:14.000 They condemned them.
00:13:15.000 They continued to portray them as ignorant.
00:13:17.000 They continued to vilify.
00:13:18.000 That leaders and voices from that movement continue to facilitate division, and only when it suits them do they apply a lens of compassion.
00:13:27.000 A lens of compassion that I would not dispute because there is certainly no advantage in creating further unrest, but there is also no advantage in allowing these untrustworthy, deceptive institutions, among them the BBC, to continue to have power over information.
00:13:43.000 Let me know what you think about that in the comments and chat.
00:13:48.000 This all began on Monday night with a knife attack in the street.
00:13:52.000 which left a man in his 40s with severe injuries and in a serious condition in hospital.
00:13:58.000 Others nearby tried to stop the stabbing and police arrested a Sudanese asylum seeker in his 30s who reached Northern Ireland via Dublin three years ago.
00:14:09.000 He's been charged with attempted murder and will appear in court here later this morning.
00:14:17.000 Despite officials pleading for calm, crowds started to gather in some places in the early evening.
00:14:23.000 Well, to see the line, despite officials pleading for calm, crowds began to gather, what work is that sentence doing in this report?
00:14:33.000 What is the point of including the line, in spite of officials pleading for calm, crowds began to gather?
00:14:39.000 That the crowds shouldn't have begun to gather?
00:14:41.000 That the crowds were asked to not gather?
00:14:43.000 What is the implied relationship between the people of Belfast who were affected by these issues and the BBC and the officials?
00:14:50.000 It's one of subordination, isn't it, plainly.
00:14:53.000 The idea is you're told by officials to stay at home and you or stay at home.
00:14:58.000 And if you don't stay at home, you are now part of the problem.
00:15:02.000 There's an entirely different way of looking at this situation.
00:15:05.000 The models of government that we currently live under and the other establishment models that ensure that the models of government remain intact are no longer reliable.
00:15:15.000 There's been, in the wake of COVID, a total breakdown of trust in all of the following institutions media, judiciary, police force, government at every level local, national, immediate, and abstract.
00:15:28.000 So what you're going to get is Every time a contentious issue occurs, there's the potential for uprising.
00:15:34.000 How these uprisings will be used by the central system, I predict, and I suppose, will be to legitimise and initiate more and more authoritarianism.
00:15:44.000 So the macro argument remains the same.
00:15:47.000 There is a tension between decentralisation and centralisation, liberty and authoritarianism.
00:15:54.000 The problem is that whether you are the Sudanese migrant who committed the murder, attempted the murder, excuse me, or you are one of the innocent people of colour that lives in that region that are now having to be ushered out through the fire, or, and statistically this is more likely, you're one of the people who's lived in Belfast for generations because Belfast wasn't always such a craved and desirable piece of real estate,
00:16:20.000 that you are suffering as a result of the intentions and actions of the exact same system.
00:16:27.000 It is the tendency to maintain and protect an elite class of individuals and institutions that are globalist in nature.
00:16:37.000 They are participants in continent-wide bureaucracies like the EU or the WHO.
00:16:44.000 It's difficult to think of them as individuals with faces, but I suppose they must be and they must have faces.
00:16:49.000 These individuals facilitate the advancing interests of commercial and corporate global entities and they work in harmony and have done for a long time, maybe longer than we're capable of recollecting or demonstrating to ensure that you, And to a lesser extent, me, although I've had my moments in the sun, remain participants in a kind of surf class.
00:17:08.000 At some point in history, the serf class were required to till the soil.
00:17:11.000 Then they were required to work in factories.
00:17:13.000 And now we are required to participate in attention economies.
00:17:18.000 And we're on the edge, I think, of some pretty serious cataclysmic events, likely brought about to reduce population because we're not required for labour in the same way that we once were.
00:17:28.000 So it'll be interesting to talk specifically and directly about.
00:17:31.000 And if you have ideas, let me know in the comments.
00:17:33.000 For people that can plainly explain to you, this is how the migration piece fits into that.
00:17:40.000 Even an old school socialist would say, It means that the native population can't charge as much money for their labour, so it creates poverty.
00:17:49.000 And it benefits, through the availability of low-cost labour, these elites and institutions.
00:17:55.000 But does it go beyond that?
00:17:57.000 Let me know in the comments and chat.
00:17:58.000 In a decentralised system, and already I think it was reform, or at least one reform candidate has alluded to this possibility, you could democratically say, actually, I really care about migrants.
00:18:08.000 I really care about the foreigner and the alien and the orphan and the widow, and I'd like to spend my life helping them.
00:18:15.000 And taking care of them.
00:18:17.000 The problem is, if you allow that to take place with the brokerage of the state, they will, forgive my language, fuck it up.
00:18:24.000 They won't do it well.
00:18:25.000 They will cause tension, as we're now seeing, whether it was the riots in Epping, Essex, near where I'm from, or the murder in Belfast, or the various other migrant and race related crimes that are occurring with increasing frequency in the places that advocate for melting pot economics and culture.
00:18:44.000 So, I reckon that if you had.
00:18:47.000 The availability of regular referenda, both at the local and national level, you'd be able to determine whether the population wants a migrant population or not.
00:18:55.000 It seems like in the UK that people in general don't.
00:18:57.000 But in the instances where they do, you could have locales that are supported by and funded by the people that live in those locales.
00:19:04.000 To put it simply, that reform politician said if you vote green, you're going to be the neighbourhoods that we build detention centres in for the temporary detainment of migrants that we will eventually expatriate or repatriate.
00:19:17.000 Now, The point of politics in 2026, if you ask me, and in a way you have by watching this, has got to be truly, truly participatory and truly representative.
00:19:27.000 When I say representative, it's got to represent the will of the people or it's not democracy anymore.
00:19:31.000 We don't live in democracy.
00:19:33.000 We haven't done it for a very, very long time.
00:19:35.000 It doesn't matter whether you vote for a candidate of the left or a candidate of the right.
00:19:38.000 In the end, they will, in one way or another, be controlled by centralized groups that are outside and beyond the purview and power of your nation.
00:19:46.000 If you continue to focus on single issues, You're going to facilitate their ongoing advancement because the likely beneficiaries of this current racial retention will simply be, I guess, nationalist politicians that will operate within the same institutions and systems and therefore will not lead to the kind of change that you require because migration might be part of the problem.
00:20:10.000 It might be.
00:20:11.000 And, but it ain't all of it, is it?
00:20:14.000 Because as we continually try to remind ourselves and one another on this show, people without power, by definition, are not. the organising forces of global geopolitics.
00:20:25.000 If you don't have power, you are a symptom, you are not a cause.
00:20:29.000 That's just what I think, Lowe.
00:20:30.000 Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
00:20:32.000 Good evening.
00:20:34.000 On Newton Ards Road, around 150 masked men blocked traffic, then set fire to bins, making burning barricades.
00:20:43.000 A bus had to be abandoned and was then engulfed in flames.
00:20:48.000 Firefighters came, but didn't approach the crowd.
00:20:52.000 Police officers also stood back for a time.
00:20:58.000 Then the crowd moved round the corner and focused their anger on houses where they believed migrants or asylum seekers may be living.
00:21:10.000 There were peaceful protests in other parts of the country.
00:21:14.000 This was Glasgow last night.
00:21:16.000 And this was Southampton, where Henry Novak's killing and his murderous sentencing was the backdrop to this round of racial unrest.
00:21:27.000 In Northern Ireland last night, They ain't going to be still in that house anytime soon.
00:21:30.000 I think it says sale agreed.
00:21:32.000 Like, honey, if you're sitting in that fucking house, we've bought out the news!
00:21:37.000 You're not.
00:21:38.000 Oh.
00:21:39.000 Northern Ireland last night, that spilled over into pockets of violence.
00:21:43.000 The concern is we may see this in more places and it could continue over the days to come.
00:21:49.000 That isn't the concern.
00:21:50.000 The concern is that what's being revealed is the relationship between the governed and the governed has broken down to the point where you can no longer safely or successfully use those terms.
00:22:01.000 We have to address.
00:22:03.000 Whether the changes in technology, in particular of the last 50 years, mean that it's impossible to continue as if the most appropriate means of government are centralized and authoritarian, with only the pose of liberalism through endless choice of breakfast cereal and no choice at all when it comes to what you think.
00:22:23.000 But that's just what I think.
00:22:24.000 Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.
00:22:27.000 One of the memes that's been popular, and one can understand why, is the response of Keir Starmer's current.
00:22:34.000 British Prime Minister to the murder of George Floyd and the murder of Henry Novak.
00:22:39.000 And I suppose the suggestion being that when a black man dies in the United States at the hands of the police, it has a certain flavour.
00:22:49.000 And when a white kid dies in the UK, it has another flavour.
00:22:53.000 Now, if you agree that it does, then you are in your own way and possibly for entirely justifiable reasons, participating in the problem.
00:23:02.000 Because the truth is that if we're going to heal some of these extraordinary challenges that we face, and perhaps we won't.
00:23:09.000 Heal them.
00:23:10.000 We're going to have to start regarding one another as a human family.
00:23:14.000 And part of being in a family, I'm speaking to those of you that are in one, is having clear communication and acknowledging that it's really difficult to get along with people sometimes and that we hurt one another.
00:23:26.000 And that at very minimum, you're going to need transparency of communication and in a system of organization that's not utterly corrupt from the start.
00:23:34.000 Now, Keir Starmer is not to blame for any of this, is he really?
00:23:38.000 He's just at what I would call the fag end, the very tail.
00:23:42.000 The end of this system where it's run out of charismatic and grand characters.
00:23:49.000 Margaret Thatcher, if you go back and look at her now, it's like watching Sammy Davis Jr.
00:23:53.000 I mean, she's like fantastic.
00:23:54.000 Or Tony Blair might as well be Chevy Chase.
00:23:59.000 What I mean to say is that we're dealing with such lackluster bureaucrats now because the system has been rung out.
00:24:07.000 On one hand, you've got the uber entertainer of Donald Trump, a sort of a media master, and a sort of magazine.
00:24:14.000 Magnanimous and magnificent megalomaniac, and on the other, you have sort of insipid, insidious figures like Keir Starmer that are, in a sense, primarily stealing oxygen and wasting carbon as they shuffle through the world with extraordinary power.
00:24:28.000 And I don't mean that in a mean way, it's a bit of a mean thing to say, but here he is comparing those two murders.
00:24:33.000 Look at the difference.
00:24:34.000 Like you, I was shocked and angered at the killing of George Floyd, and the response of President Trump and the US authorities to the peaceful protests, to people rightly demanding justice, has been an affront to humanity.
00:24:49.000 There is no justification.
00:24:51.000 All right, so that's his description, I suppose, of the protests and the Black Lives Matter movement.
00:24:56.000 Now, if you're like aware of American history, you know, Jim Crow, the Civil Rights Movement, slavery, the Civil War, the complexity of the issues around the Civil War, excuse me, the necessity of the Emancipation Proclamation, but the inability to address the goals of industrialization that the Union had and mass industrialization at that, that were concealed by.
00:25:23.000 An agenda of abolition.
00:25:25.000 I mean, look, I don't know if the world's made me terribly cynical, but this is what I think now.
00:25:30.000 Like, look at what we learn in real time in the post COVID independent media era.
00:25:35.000 Like, we're told there's a massive pandemic.
00:25:38.000 Everyone get in your houses because we love you so much.
00:25:40.000 And also take these injections because we love you so much.
00:25:43.000 Then you find out we made that thing in a lab.
00:25:46.000 It's probably a bioweapon.
00:25:48.000 It causes turbo cancers.
00:25:50.000 If you took any of those vaccines, it's probably worse than had you not taken them.
00:25:58.000 So, if you apply that lens, and I'm not saying it's ever been thus, but maybe it's ever been thus, and look at the Civil War in America, of course, slavery is bad and it's a great slur and scar on any nation that's practiced it, and most nations have practiced it at some point.
00:26:15.000 But I don't, I find it very difficult to imagine that the true motivation of the political forces that could steer the American war machine was we have just got to end slavery any more than the government's like, we've just got to protect people from COVID.
00:26:31.000 It's like when you see Nancy Pelosi saying, Won't you please think of the children?
00:26:36.000 Well, Nancy, well, we'll choose to think about, instead of the children, I love the children, they're great, they're doing a great job.
00:26:41.000 But how much money did you have when you got into politics?
00:26:45.000 Mm hmm, mm hmm.
00:26:45.000 How much you got now?
00:26:47.000 Mm hmm, mm hmm.
00:26:48.000 Where did it come from?
00:26:49.000 Was that your motivation?
00:26:50.000 And when you see dear old Keir Starmer there saying, All of us are shocked and disgusted by the death of George Floyd, shouldn't that be our goal to be as appalled by the death of George Floyd as we are by Henry Novak, and indeed would be by anyone?
00:27:02.000 What does love your enemies mean?
00:27:05.000 If not, try to look at another perspective without all of your biases and prejudices because you're all going to the same place fast.
00:27:14.000 There is no justification for more violence and disorder.
00:27:19.000 The attacks directed towards police officers in Southampton last night were disgraceful and completely unacceptable.
00:27:28.000 This is a time for serious work, not rage.
00:27:35.000 is that your emotions and your feelings are irrelevant and that serious work is done by who?
00:27:40.000 Politicians, we do serious work, administrators, think tank members, people that essentially ensure that the system remains robust and untouched in spite of social conflagration.
00:27:50.000 He is about to say that the people that protest should feel the full force of the law.
00:27:54.000 That tells you at once who the law is for.
00:27:57.000 The law is not there to protect you, the law is there to control you.
00:28:01.000 That's what the law is for.
00:28:03.000 You might not be experiencing that because you might not be buttressing up against its perimeters either through poverty, Error or circumstance.
00:28:12.000 You likely are corralled into the middle of the flock, and broadly speaking, when it comes to the view of the powerful, irrelevant.
00:28:19.000 All they require of you is that you participate benignly and bovinely in their systems.
00:28:27.000 The problems occur when, one way or another, you find yourself at odds with the system.
00:28:32.000 When that happens, it reveals its true nature.
00:28:36.000 Its true nature is evil.
00:28:39.000 The good things that emerge from a culture, I would argue, and I'd love to know what you think about this.
00:28:44.000 Emerge as an inadvertent consequence of the culture, not as its raison d'etre.
00:28:49.000 All of the beautiful sports, beautiful music, beautiful people, beautiful artifacts, incredible moments, heroism emerge as an inadvertent side effect of the system maintaining its control, mutating and maneuvering through time and space, meeting new challenges, new geographical challenges, new social and political challenges, the emergence of new nations, the emergence of new thoughts, the emergence of new technology.
00:29:13.000 Where we are now is in a nuclear arms race for information.
00:29:18.000 The tools that they will use.
00:29:20.000 To institute mass surveillance and control through digital ID can be used for total transparency and participatory democracy.
00:29:28.000 This is the idea that you will continue to hear me talking about until someone with more ability to institute it than me steals it and does it.
00:29:36.000 And I pray for that day because I'd rather live peacefully somewhere in a cabin with my thoughts, given that we're already in eternity anyway.
00:29:45.000 And let me be clear we will ensure anyone found engaging in disorder meets the full force of the law as we have done before.
00:29:54.000 Whose law?
00:29:55.000 For what?
00:29:55.000 Controlled by whom?
00:29:57.000 To what ends?
00:29:58.000 The United Kingdom is rightly in outrage as a result of the murder of Henry Novak and this recent stabbing.
00:30:04.000 And part of the conversation, indeed a significant part, is the subject of migration.
00:30:09.000 And that's getting the majority of the attention, both from the people that claim that it is the cause and the people that claim that it isn't.
00:30:18.000 There should just be a referenda.
00:30:19.000 You should just have the democracy that you claim you already have and let the will of the people determine it.
00:30:24.000 You can't control information anymore.
00:30:26.000 You can't control people anymore.
00:30:28.000 Indeed, we just have to give people the truth about the presence of God in their lives and allow each of us individually and all of us collectively to arrive at the truth that is present always the truth of our beauty, of our glory, the possibility for us to create new nations and new communities using this technology to become creative and glorious in His likeness.
00:30:50.000 We don't gain access to that possibility.
00:30:52.000 Why?
00:30:52.000 Because we're caught in tribal conflict, both at the level of the community, at the level of the nation, at the level of the planet, trapped on these.
00:31:00.000 Black reflective screens, quarreling most of the time with no one, but arguing against, but when we could be tending the land, when we could be tending to God, when we could be realizing his kingdom.
00:31:14.000 This won't happen until we're willing to take on board some pretty profound, important, and difficult to appraise, let alone act, activate spiritual principles like love your enemy, love your enemy, recognize that this is indeed, as I saw Rupert Lowe post, enough, and Conor McGregor's outrage is justifiable.
00:31:35.000 The south of Ireland should be run by the people there.
00:31:37.000 The north of Ireland should be run by the people there.
00:31:39.000 Subsidiarity, decentralisation.
00:31:42.000 Please, please, let us not argue anymore for what colour hat the captain of the Titanic wears.
00:31:49.000 Let us recognise that we are approaching an iceberg and it isn't too late for us to reorient our vessel.
00:31:56.000 That's just what I think, though.
00:31:57.000 Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.

00:33:21.000 Bitcoin and participating currency models that are not so easily controlled by the government because if they need to control it, they will.
00:33:28.000 If you're watching us on YouTube, do remember that YouTube is a pretty great platform in a lot of ways.
00:33:33.000 You can find most things on there, it's good, but it is also centrally controlled in a way that may not be beneficial to you in the long run when it comes to the type of information you interface with.
00:33:46.000 Whereas here on Rumble, I at least will do my best, and sometimes it Will frankly not be good enough to tell you the truth, and that begins immediately with this story.
00:33:59.000 Um, Keir Starmer, the prime minister of the United Kingdom, has issued an ultimatum to tech giants such as Apple and Google, telling them that they have to control information.
00:34:12.000 And of course, these days, people never say, Here is a tyrannical new operation that I'm bringing to bear, they always say, This I'm gonna help you.
00:34:23.000 In some way, that's what they say.
00:34:25.000 I'm going to help you and I'm going to help your children.
00:34:27.000 Now, of course, these new child safety measures are going to restrict the freedom of British people online.
00:34:38.000 And you can bet that, like all recent attempts to protect us and help us, it will lead to further control.
00:34:48.000 Let's have a look at what Keir Starmer said publicly and let's examine for ourselves some of the dangers that might come from yielding authority to a state.
00:34:57.000 That doesn't like you, that hates you, in fact.
00:35:00.000 And when I say hates you, I mean doesn't care about you, respects your right to live, and sees everything as kind of godless, a godless requiem for the acquisition of resources.
00:35:15.000 And even that's made it sound slightly prettier than it is because of the use of the word requiem.
00:35:20.000 Let's have a look.
00:35:21.000 Starmer, it says here in the Guardian newspaper, which in itself is a vassal of a particular type of political thought, but.
00:35:28.000 You know, a stopped clock is right twice a day.
00:35:30.000 And Apple and Google, it says, have been given until September to install software that blocks explicit images on children's mobile phones or face legislation to force them to do so.
00:35:42.000 Keir Starmer said on Monday.
00:35:44.000 Now, like, look, I've got children and I am not relying on Keir Starmer or Google or Apple to prevent my children from seeing not only pornography, but the myriad disgusting ideas and images that.
00:35:58.000 Endlessly assail them online, but not just online, in every mall and in every school.
00:36:04.000 The culture is fallen and broken and will turn your children into, at best, morons and at worst, perverts.
00:36:11.000 And a triumvirate of Google, Apple, and Keir Starmer are not the triune God that I would turn to for the protection of my children's innocence.
00:36:19.000 In fact, I have to take care of that myself, along with my wife, and the wider community.
00:36:25.000 And if all of us are doing our best to keep our eyes on Christ, the highest principle realized.
00:36:31.000 Incarnately in flesh, and the possibility for all of us to participate in a reality that is not fallen and broken and disgusting, it is possible, it can be done falteringly in places because of our evident fallibility.
00:36:44.000 But the problem is when you give the state that job, is that their aim is not to protect your children.
00:36:50.000 Their aim is to control your children.
00:36:52.000 And the way that they control your children is by claiming that they want to protect your children.
00:36:58.000 In so doing, they will also legitimize control over you and the information you receive.
00:37:03.000 You probably know that already, but you might not know the solution.
00:37:06.000 The solution, extraordinarily, is available to you and in you.
00:37:10.000 You must yourself turn away from the world.
00:37:12.000 As long as you are being controlled by the world, by your petty fears and desires, you remain in the field of.
00:37:18.000 Power that they control.
00:37:20.000 When you turn away from that, when you repent, then you become maybe not invincible, but the principle is instantiated in scripture thus You can't take my life.
00:37:33.000 I laid down my life.
00:37:34.000 I laid down my life.
00:37:35.000 This, you don't even control the dimension that I'm operating in.
00:37:38.000 The problem is, it's really easy to fall back into this dimension.
00:37:41.000 I must say, I do it a lot.
00:37:43.000 The Prime Minister said tech companies must activate new e-detection algorithms or other technical solutions on smartphones and tablets to prevent users taking photos.
00:37:52.000 Or sharing images of genitalia unless they are verified as adults.
00:37:56.000 I mean, frankly, why are adults looking at images of genitalia?
00:38:00.000 I'm an adult, so let's have a look at some images of genitalia right now, please.
00:38:06.000 Frankly, no one should be looking at images of genitalia unless it's for medical reasons, or I mean, that's basically it.
00:38:12.000 I mean, increasingly, I don't think there's any point in looking at images of genitalia at all.
00:38:17.000 How are you justifying it to yourself?
00:38:19.000 How are you stepping out of the flow of your day and saying, one minute?
00:38:25.000 Some images of genitalia, if you don't mind.
00:38:28.000 There, now I feel better, not just about my own genitalia, but about life more broadly.
00:38:33.000 The truth is, God has better things in store for you than staring at people's genitalia.
00:38:37.000 And if it takes Keir Starmer and Apple and Google to prevent you or your children looking at images of genitalia, there is a much bigger problem.
00:38:45.000 And of course, that is the truth.
00:38:46.000 There is a much bigger problem because the culture's told you that there's nothing but flesh and wanting and desire and fear and filth.
00:38:56.000 If businesses do not comply within three months, legislation will be brought forward requiring the protection to be added to all phones and tablets sold in the UK.
00:39:02.000 Tech firms that fail to do so could face fines, and their senior managers couldn't be made criminally liable.
00:39:07.000 Last month, Jess Phillips quit her post as safeguarding minister, claiming that Starmer had failed to introduce changes to halt the ability of children in the UK to take naked images of themselves.
00:39:17.000 However, some Labour MPs told the Prime Minister to stop asking the tech firms to make changes and legislate instead.
00:39:26.000 It's a false dichotomy.
00:39:27.000 It's always a false dichotomy.
00:39:28.000 On one hand, you've got Apple and Google who Have so much power that it's near impossible for them not to be negligent with that power, and they have a profit motive.
00:39:37.000 They're ultimately answerable, aren't they, to their board and to their shareholders?
00:39:40.000 So they're continually selecting in favor of profit, and that, you know, as you already know, you can't serve God and Mammon, and they have chosen Mammon.
00:39:48.000 So the tendency of both Google and Apple will incline towards evil.
00:39:55.000 The only thing you need to do to make it complete and perfect is for them to be in relationship with a government.
00:39:59.000 Oh my God, now you've got serious trouble.
00:40:02.000 Now you've got legislative.
00:40:04.000 Power and commercial negligence in diabolical fascistic harmony.
00:40:10.000 The again, the only way to stop this is to remember for a minute they were talking about breaking up like monopolies like Facebook.
00:40:17.000 Breaking up Apple and Alphabet.
00:40:17.000 Where did that go?
00:40:19.000 Why not?
00:40:20.000 Why not?
00:40:21.000 Why not break them up?
00:40:22.000 Well, because of the entrepreneurial spirit of the American businessman.
00:40:27.000 For heaven's sake, for heaven's sake, who among us believes the garage banned version of the provenance of this tech anymore?
00:40:36.000 Who among us believes that?
00:40:37.000 Mark Zuckerberg was chewing a pencil somewhere once and came up with Facebook when we've all seen, surely, haven't we?
00:40:46.000 The technology already existed, the blueprint already existed.
00:40:50.000 And the same with those other great geniuses, Serge Brin and Larry Page, who were granted access to satellite technology that was military before the establishment of Google Maps.
00:41:02.000 Indeed, there is no separation between Apple and Google and government in the final analysis, and beyond that, international government in China, Fox.
00:41:12.000 I believe it is the name of the company that manufactures all of Apple's products.
00:41:16.000 I own one myself.
00:41:17.000 There's a way above the national average of suicide going on in that community there of 400,000 people who dedicate and devote their lives to the manufacture of these not senseless objects, but objects that could be made a little differently if we weren't focused solely on profit.
00:41:33.000 If you buy one of these phones, that should do you for the rest of your life at best.
00:41:38.000 You should be on it for a maximum of an hour a day.
00:41:41.000 You should be wearing glasses like these ones to stop the lights that the The lights that they broadcast from the screen, you know, they had an elective choice as to what the color was, and they chose the color that would make you more addicted.
00:41:53.000 At every single level, at every single crossroads, the choice towards evil is inevitably made.
00:41:59.000 The only way to thwart it is by surrendering the whole of yourself to God and working on that practice moment to moment to the rest of your life.
00:42:08.000 That's the solution, but the solution's not quite as fascinating as the problem.
00:42:12.000 And the problem is bureaucrats and commercialists together. are posing to ensure that they maintain total power.
00:42:19.000 Here's the Home Office, that's the State Department in the UK.
00:42:21.000 Tech companies like Apple and Google have three months.
00:42:24.000 We're taking this seriously.
00:42:26.000 Activate safeguards on smartphones and tablets to detect and block nude images for children.
00:42:33.000 Yeah?
00:42:34.000 The children that we got into government to protect.
00:42:36.000 And in rare instances, when it comes to Epstein Island and the compromise of politicians in general.
00:42:43.000 Now, I only mean the upper echelons now.
00:42:46.000 Occasionally.
00:42:48.000 I mean, isn't it?
00:42:49.000 Don't you find some peculiar irony in their over attempts to protect children from sexual predators when they themselves are the worst kind of predators, predating, it seems, specifically on children to an enormous degree?
00:43:04.000 Let me know what you think about that in the comments and chat.
00:43:06.000 Readers added some context they thought people might want to know.
00:43:10.000 Apple and Google already provide these safeguards for children.
00:43:13.000 Apple has communication safety and sensitive content warning.
00:43:16.000 Google has sensitive content warning through safety core.
00:43:18.000 Frankly, I mean,.
00:43:20.000 This is a problem that we're dealing with in our own households.
00:43:22.000 Your children shouldn't have phones and should only have limited and managed access to screens.
00:43:27.000 Not to shame you as a parent, I know how difficult it is.
00:43:30.000 But the screen is ultimately a conduit to the culture, and the culture is ultimately evil.
00:43:37.000 And whether you protect them from pornography or not, and I pray that you can, you will not be able to protect them from the cultural equivalents of pornography that pervade every aspect of the culture.
00:43:46.000 Just watch any commercial, any advertisement.
00:43:49.000 It's either using sex, and even if you separate the entire subject of sex, pornography goes beyond that.
00:43:54.000 Pornography is everything.
00:43:56.000 Stimulating the senses and the desires so that you direct your spiritual focus to fallen and material things instead of to the highest thing for which you were made.
00:44:05.000 You won't be able to do that if you are looking to the culture for any solution.
00:44:09.000 Whether that's political culture, media culture, any aspect of it, it's fallen, it's broken, it has been for a long time.
00:44:16.000 There is a solution.
00:44:18.000 Surely we must move towards it together.
00:44:21.000 Here's Keir Starmer warning tech companies to block children from sending and receiving explicit information.
00:44:27.000 Explicit images of face new legislation.
00:44:30.000 Isn't it extraordinary that even something as clear cut as children are by definition non participants in the erotic world has to be argued about and legislated for?
00:44:42.000 Let's have a look.
00:44:43.000 I'm calling on tech companies operating in this country to introduce device controls that prevent children from sending and receiving sexually explicit images.
00:44:55.000 Because this is not an impossible challenge.
00:44:58.000 These are the sum of the most innovative companies in the world.
00:45:02.000 And I believe they can solve it.
00:45:06.000 But if they choose not to, then we will act and we will change the law.
00:45:14.000 Because when it comes to the safety of our children, standing by is not an option.
00:45:21.000 Well, clip that and use that for the various ways in which children have been exploited.
00:45:26.000 The terrible rape gang crisis in the United Kingdom, where children were presenting themselves in police stations the day after alleging that they'd been raped.
00:45:35.000 By the many rape gangs that seem to be running amok in the United Kingdom and can't get the police to take on board their cases.
00:45:42.000 Something really weird is going on in the UK.
00:45:45.000 Slightly closer to the subject, do you not imagine that Apple, for example, and Google have means of communication with government officials that goes beyond public platforms at London Tech Week?
00:45:59.000 I imagine that they do.
00:46:00.000 I imagine that if Apple and Google want to sort something out with the British government or the American government or the Chinese government, they're perfectly capable of doing that.
00:46:08.000 In fact, these companies.
00:46:09.000 Are sort of part of that strata that exists beyond the kind of crazy flag, two dimensional reality that we're content to live within.
00:46:17.000 Because I'll say again, the majority, if not all, of Apple's tech is made in China.
00:46:23.000 In the coming decade, there will likely be some sort of conflict, either proxy or literal, between the United States and China.
00:46:30.000 You agree that, right?
00:46:31.000 Most likely because of Taiwan and semiconductors.
00:46:34.000 And when that happens, I'm assuming that Apple will go on having their phones made in China.
00:46:40.000 Because the reality is.
00:46:42.000 Only in the most superficial way is there an America and China.
00:46:46.000 To the people that matter, there ain't a France, there ain't a Sudan, there ain't America or China.
00:46:51.000 There is not even the financial and observable wealth that comes from corporate power.
00:46:58.000 There is whatever is beneath it.
00:47:00.000 A kind of control of attention, a control of reality.
00:47:04.000 Remember, the agricultural revolution meant that mankind could manage and control nature.
00:47:10.000 The industrial revolution meant that mankind could manage and control matter.
00:47:15.000 The technological revolution means that mankind can manage and control attention.
00:47:19.000 Attention is an aspect of consciousness itself and consciousness is the portal and doorway via which we access God Almighty, the creator of all reality.
00:47:29.000 Remember, the atheistic and naturalist perspective is that consciousness is a byproduct of nature and evolved from it.
00:47:35.000 The spiritual perspective is that consciousness precedes it and that matter at some point has come from it, perhaps prior to that big bang that no one can explain or understand that brought about the rules of the reality that you and I are.
00:47:47.000 Wallowing in now, presumably while myriad alternative realities spin around us in every conceivable direction.
00:47:55.000 And if you doubt what I'm saying, try some DMT.
00:47:57.000 That's not a literal recommendation or suggestion.
00:48:01.000 Although, you know, why not?
00:48:02.000 The fact is that Keir Starmer, there, God love him, and Apple and Google are operating in systems of sustenance and systems of control that have as their priority and, in a way, only goal the maintenance of their ability to continue to control.
00:48:19.000 If Apple or Google can't continue to operate in the way they can, the whole thing starts to quake and shake a little bit.
00:48:25.000 So here's my prediction they'll come to some sort of deal around tax breaks or the degree of tax breaks and whether or not Apple can be registered in Holland, that's the Netherlands, or Ireland era.
00:48:37.000 And what will happen is they'll come to terms, and those terms will not benefit you.
00:48:42.000 They will enhance both the government's and corporations' abilities to control you and manage you and treat you like a consumer and a little unit in a meaningless larvae in their hive.
00:48:52.000 Of necromancy, and uh, Lord alone knows only you and I and Christ can prevent that.
00:49:00.000 So, anyway, let's have a look at um, this bit about AI tutors.
00:49:04.000 What's this going to mean?
00:49:05.000 AI tutors will be rolled out to 450,450,000 children.
00:49:10.000 AI tutors now.
00:49:11.000 Do I want to see that or do we want to get to Silky Carlo?
00:49:13.000 Let's have a look at this first.
00:49:15.000 Launching new tools like our AI tutors that we will roll out to the 450,000 children on free school meals to close the attainment gap.
00:49:28.000 I don't need food.
00:49:29.000 I was on free school meals when I was a child, as a matter of fact.
00:49:32.000 And what I didn't need was an AI teacher.
00:49:35.000 What I needed was healthier food in the school, locally grown.
00:49:39.000 But again, none of these things will happen because of the problem, the principal problem, centralization.
00:49:46.000 You have vast big food companies that want to control all of your food.
00:49:50.000 Just pay attention to whether or not anyone's buying up farmland right now and buying up bunkers.
00:49:55.000 That's one problem, one facet of centralization.
00:49:58.000 Another problem of centralization.
00:50:00.000 Is you have mass migration.
00:50:01.000 Another problem of centralization is you have a kind of a despair when it comes to connection to God.
00:50:07.000 Another problem of centralization is the use of AI, just another tool, really, but a very, very powerful one, solely to facilitate the goals of the very elites and imperialists that we must oppose.
00:50:21.000 Man, don't give people AI tutors, Kia.
00:50:26.000 And today, I can announce our new AI jobs tool that will help those out of work.
00:50:32.000 Find the right jobs, create their CVs, and get back into work.
00:50:38.000 Does anyone in the world believe that?
00:50:41.000 Is there anyone watching that, like in sincerity, going, ah, thank you?
00:50:46.000 And pay attention to just how much of your life is like that, utterly voided of any sincerity or real connection.
00:50:51.000 You watch a commercial on TV, they have to be ironic now, don't they?
00:50:54.000 Think of the best adverts now, the most expensive and highly produced ones that take place, for example, in the American Super Bowl.
00:51:01.000 What do you notice about them?
00:51:02.000 They're parodic, nostalgic, and ironic.
00:51:06.000 The reason for that is, is they know that you know it's all bullshit.
00:51:09.000 So even if they're advertising a bowl of Doritos, a bag of Doritos, they have to advertise it through various lenses to you.
00:51:16.000 They have to go, oh, you know, and reference some sitcom from 1970 and reference some sort of meta joke because the culture is totally lacking in sincerity.
00:51:26.000 They have to continually mask, we don't care about you, we don't love you, we want to profit from you and control you.
00:51:32.000 They have to mask that continually in a variety of ways.
00:51:35.000 So you're watching some juggling paedophile uncle.
00:51:39.000 All the while knowing what the show is leading to.
00:51:41.000 Well, is it time for us to turn in?
00:51:44.000 Yeah, you better believe it's time for us to turn in.
00:51:46.000 Stop believing in this peculiar paedophile culture that's using, ironically, paedophilia as a way to leverage further control over you.
00:51:53.000 But why trust my words on it?
00:51:56.000 Let's have a look at what's this?
00:51:58.000 Is this the law?
00:51:59.000 Is this the law?
00:52:00.000 Shadow Home Secretary Chris Phillips said Keir Starmer delayed acting for months, ordering his MPs to vote down conservative plans to ban social media over under 16s.
00:52:08.000 While he dawdled, thousands of British children have been endangered.
00:52:12.000 Including grooming for sexual abuse, beyond grooming, actual exploitation and numerous rapes.
00:52:17.000 Look at the whole rape gang.
00:52:18.000 Crisis that's engulfing the entire country until the news cycles have moved on.
00:52:23.000 Star Marsh should apologize for the thousands of children he's endangered.
00:52:27.000 All right, so that's obviously, I suppose, what that article does is it lets you know that that isn't what they actually care about.
00:52:34.000 They don't really care about protecting children.
00:52:36.000 If you did care about protecting children, there's a million ways to do it.
00:52:41.000 That's by empowering the people that are closest to the care of those children that are naturally fueled by the love of those children.
00:52:47.000 Empowering them.
00:52:48.000 That's how you would.
00:52:49.000 Do that if that were your interest.
00:52:51.000 And I want to let you know that there are ways for your life to meaningfully change.
00:52:55.000 I don't want my cynicism and weariness at dealing with these hucksters to lead you to believe that change isn't inevitable and possible and God's glory isn't imminent.
00:53:05.000 Here's Big Brother Watch director Silky Carlo talking about how this will be exploited.
00:53:11.000 Let's have a look.
00:53:12.000 Well, it's a mess for the public because what's being suggested here is effectively ID cards for the internet.
00:53:19.000 And of course, we all want children to be safe online, it's really, really important.
00:53:23.000 But what next to no one is actually talking about is how the government will, in practice, do what it says it's going to do by making sure that children don't see certain types of explicit content on their phones.
00:53:36.000 It's really the job of parents.
00:53:37.000 It's something that parents can protect their children from.
00:53:40.000 But when it goes to central government, what the government is saying is that the whole British population's phones will be child locked.
00:53:49.000 Expensive phones that we have, if you have one of these phones or maybe laptops, maybe tablets, why stop at phones?
00:53:55.000 If you own one of these devices in Britain, unlike any other country in the world, you will have restricted internet access.
00:54:02.000 The government is setting up one of the most authoritarian internet regimes, if not the most, in the world with this massive change, because there's no other country in the world that requires an ID to have normal internet access.
00:54:16.000 And paired with the ID requirement, so you'll have to show that you're an adult in order to not have a child locked phone.
00:54:25.000 They're also discussing what sounds very, very much like spyware on phones, which is called client side scanning.
00:54:32.000 It's software that will be mandated by the government that will be constantly scanning for what you're doing on your phone to see if there's something that they should block.
00:54:42.000 So we're a million miles away from the free and open internet that's part of a normal democracy and moving towards something that's like a government controlled device.
00:54:51.000 And I almost, honestly, Padre, I almost genuinely can't believe that I'm saying these words out now because it sounds so extreme.
00:54:56.000 But this genuinely.
00:54:58.000 This is the technological reality of what's being proposed.
00:55:02.000 I suppose all you have to do is bear in mind that this is the government.
00:55:06.000 Remember, what protected me from vaccines, shall I tell you what it was?
00:55:10.000 Is I, like anyone, didn't know what was going on at the beginning of the pandemic.
00:55:13.000 But then I just paid attention not only to what was being said, but who was saying it.
00:55:17.000 And I noticed that the people that were saying, hey, we want you to take this vaccine or this injection, however you want to term it, let me know in the comments and chat what you call them now.
00:55:26.000 The people that were saying it were Big Pharma and the government.
00:55:30.000 And so I just thought.
00:55:32.000 Big Pharma and the government, they're not my friends.
00:55:34.000 They're my detested enemies.
00:55:37.000 I'm not suggesting that governments haven't done things that are good at points in history or that Pharma haven't.
00:55:43.000 I'm saying those things are inadvertent byproducts of their totalitarian control.
00:55:46.000 That's what I'm saying, is that if the culture creates something beautiful, it's an inadvertent byproduct of its system of control.
00:55:55.000 Control of your attention, control of your resources, master control of the condition, ensuring that the true frequency of light never emerges or at least doesn't gain sufficient momentum.
00:56:06.000 To prevent these systems from continuing to thrive.
00:56:09.000 That's what I think.
00:56:11.000 So, if the even the very fact that the information is coming out of that government is reason for pause and contemplation, they want to protect children here, right?
00:56:22.000 So, do we see a principle of protecting children everywhere when it comes to the food they eat, the way that they're educated, the way that their parents are supported, the way that culture is run, the way that we prioritize the distribution of our resources, the way that we set up governmental systems?
00:56:35.000 Does all of that indicate protection of children, or do we live in some peculiar world where toxins are introduced at every level into the food source, into the water, into the air, and into the mind?
00:56:45.000 To ensure frailty, weakness, and ongoing fallenness?
00:56:48.000 The answer to that question is, of course, yes, it was a rhetorical question, but it was also just what I think.
00:56:54.000 Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
00:56:58.000 Before we leave you today, I'd like you to know that every Sunday, me and my wife Laura do this show called Sunday Service where we read the Bible and hang out.
00:57:10.000 Have a look.
00:57:19.000 I can't get the hymn, Make Me a Channel of Thy Peace, out of my head, though.
00:57:23.000 So now I will be, I'm going to be finding.
00:57:26.000 Is it at your school?
00:57:27.000 It was at my school, yeah.
00:57:28.000 And it was actually a very, well, actually, I think it was.
00:57:30.000 I don't think I'd like that hymn.
00:57:32.000 I can tell you that.
00:57:33.000 It's really lovely.
00:57:35.000 You know those ones that are not proper.
00:57:36.000 Like, there's so many hymns.
00:57:37.000 I think they sound like they're making it up on the spot.
00:57:39.000 Like, there are some good ones.
00:57:41.000 No, it is a good one.
00:57:43.000 I'm going to try and find it later.
00:57:44.000 Well, I'm going to do some good ones, and the organ.
00:57:46.000 I think they're going to have to sing it.
00:57:47.000 But here are some good ones.
00:57:48.000 Go on.
00:57:49.000 Hand me down that silver trumpet, Gabriel.
00:57:52.000 Hold on a minute.
00:57:53.000 That's what I say at my school.
00:57:54.000 Okay, ready for this?
00:57:56.000 I am the Lord of the Dance Said He and will lead you all wherever you may be and I'll lead you all in the Dance Said He.
00:58:01.000 How about this one?
00:58:07.000 Great hymns.
00:58:10.000 Now do your one.
00:58:11.000 I bet it sounds like you're making it up right now.
00:58:14.000 Okay, hold on.
00:58:16.000 Well, first of all, this.
00:58:17.000 Make me a channel of my peace.
00:58:20.000 There is hatred, let there be hope.
00:58:20.000 And let's look at that.
00:58:23.000 Okay, hold on.
00:58:24.000 No, the one, the real.
00:58:25.000 Rubbish.
00:58:26.000 I'm not saying that those words are rubbish.
00:58:27.000 I'm saying it sounds like it's been made up on the spot.
00:58:29.000 Because you think they're trying to fit too many words into the.
00:58:32.000 Sort of, and they're prescriptive, and whoever's had to do it.
00:58:35.000 It's not Bernie Taupin and Elton John.
00:58:36.000 No.
00:58:37.000 Where Bernie provides the lyrics.
00:58:38.000 Do you know what the best one is?
00:58:40.000 Go on.
00:58:40.000 The Lord bless you and keep you.
00:58:41.000 Go on then, how's that going?
00:58:43.000 The Lord bless you and keep you.
00:58:46.000 The morning of haste to shine upon you, to shine upon you and behave.
00:58:51.000 I just don't remember the words, but it's really beautiful.
00:58:54.000 That was better.
00:58:55.000 Okay.
00:58:56.000 But like them hymns, as I'm like, don't you sometimes watch?
00:58:59.000 I'm actually embarrassed that that's going to be recorded now.
00:59:01.000 That's out there now.
00:59:02.000 That's getting clipped up for sure.
00:59:04.000 Oh no.
00:59:11.000 Join us for Sunday service every Sunday so that you can just be in transparency and innocence.
00:59:19.000 Transparency and innocence is what you need.
00:59:22.000 Creativity without malign intention behind it.
00:59:26.000 What a relief that is.
00:59:28.000 I have, Jake, tell on the subject of creativity without malign intent.
00:59:34.000 I want to talk to you about Jake's new album.
00:59:37.000 Now, if you're a regular viewer of our show, you'll know that Jake Smith likes to, at least once a week, make a collaborative album with a Christian artist.
00:59:46.000 You name a Christian artist, Jake's done a collaborative album with them.
00:59:49.000 Before Jake had the dubious honour of helping me with this show, he was a musician in a variety of contexts, both secular and Christian, and also a worship leader at a number of churches.
01:00:00.000 Now, Jake.
01:00:01.000 Has produced and dedicated to his beautiful wife, Ali, Bad Days Behind, a new album available on Spotify now.
01:00:09.000 There's a link in the description.
01:00:11.000 Let us know in the comments and chat what you think of Jake's music.
01:00:14.000 Jake, tell me, why is this work any different from your numerous other collabs with Christian musicians?
01:00:21.000 Is this who did you make this with?
01:00:23.000 Brandon Lake?
01:00:25.000 First off, I haven't done any collabs with anyone.
01:00:30.000 That's all been in your head.
01:00:31.000 False information, false narrative I'm creating.
01:00:34.000 I would do a collab with you.
01:00:36.000 Aren't we going to do it?
01:00:36.000 I do think we will, especially based on this brilliant album, Bad Days Behind.
01:00:41.000 I'm very, I liked it when I used to pretend to be a movie star, pretending to be a rock star.
01:00:48.000 There was a lot of layers to it.
01:00:49.000 Sometimes I was pretending to be a movie star, pretending to be a rock star, pretending to be a cartoon rabbit.
01:00:53.000 That's when it went too far.
01:00:55.000 But so, yeah, we could do a collab.
01:00:57.000 But talk to me about this.
01:00:58.000 This is a solo album that you've done.
01:00:59.000 I noticed there's one other person credited on there other than Ali.
01:01:03.000 Who the hell's that?
01:01:04.000 I don't know.
01:01:05.000 Who's on there?
01:01:05.000 Someone on this?
01:01:06.000 Keith Harris.
01:01:06.000 Keith Harris.
01:01:08.000 So Keith L. Harris produced it.
01:01:08.000 Yeah.
01:01:11.000 He's a buddy of mine out of Nashville, and he helped me put all these songs together over a few years.
01:01:17.000 So, I would go to Nashville, record it.
01:01:19.000 I had a bunch of good guys.
01:01:21.000 Scotty Mills on guitar, Tucker Richmond on guitar, Brent Milligan on bass.
01:01:27.000 Really good musicians.
01:01:29.000 And Keith also played a lot of stuff on the album.
01:01:33.000 That's good that you've credited them.
01:01:35.000 Now, we've got free videos here.
01:01:37.000 Just music.
01:01:38.000 Oh, they're not.
01:01:39.000 It's just the music.
01:01:40.000 So, me and you is going to be our facial expressions.
01:01:43.000 Our facial expressions?
01:01:43.000 We've got to do that what?
01:01:44.000 I don't know what it is.
01:01:46.000 It might be just the graphic of the album.
01:01:48.000 Because I don't like.
01:01:49.000 Like, you know, like, when you're having to really intently listen to music, especially if it's someone who knows music, and then you've got to do, like, faces for it.
01:01:57.000 You know, so am I going to have to do.
01:01:58.000 I don't think it'll show you.
01:01:59.000 No, I want.
01:02:00.000 Well, what's the alternative to not seeing my face?
01:02:02.000 That's even worse.
01:02:03.000 Well, just listen.
01:02:04.000 We'll see what the picture is.
01:02:05.000 Which one do you think we should go for?
01:02:05.000 All right, let's see.
01:02:07.000 Bad day behind, till the end, or it takes time?
01:02:09.000 Just do a little bit of both, all of them.
01:02:12.000 It's 60 minutes, Jake.
01:02:24.000 On your face.
01:02:28.000 It's just been one of those days.
01:02:31.000 I know it.
01:02:33.000 Maybe it's decisions to make, it's the give and the take.
01:02:38.000 Don't know what you're going through, but I know just what to do.
01:02:48.000 Let's roll those windows down, let's turn that radio up and we can drive all night Till the morning, sing loud your favorite lines.
01:03:00.000 Cause it's just you and I.
01:03:07.000 A good time
01:04:30.000 Let's turn that re- I like that.
01:04:58.000 I like the optimism of it, and I like sort of the attempt to sort of like, obviously, because I know you and I know your family, and I know that you've dedicated it to your wife.
01:05:06.000 I'm thinking, like, oh, and it, the truth is, Jake, you can't get in the car and put the radio on and drive all night because you've got too many children.
01:05:13.000 Too many kids.
01:05:14.000 That would be negligent.
01:05:15.000 Actually, Keir Starmer would jail you for doing that.
01:05:18.000 You'd be better off being found with child porn on your phone than driving through the night with six kids, one of whom's under a year old.
01:05:26.000 No seatbelts.
01:05:28.000 And the radio's up.
01:05:29.000 Don't try doing that in the UK.
01:05:30.000 They cut your head off, especially if it's a convertible.
01:05:33.000 You'd have a Somalian sweep your head off with a hatchet.
01:05:36.000 You leave the kids at home on that one?
01:05:38.000 Yeah.
01:05:39.000 I mean, so he's definitely on that one.
01:05:41.000 It seemed to me like it was sort of an attempt to capture the sort of early relationship innocence that one has to bemoan.
01:05:49.000 The whole album is, I mean, it's been some tough years, you know.
01:05:52.000 It hasn't been all just like butterflies and, you know, there's butterflies in the middle of all the tough years, but a lot of tough years, but still finding hope and all that, you know?
01:06:02.000 Right, yeah, I felt that your job done was beautiful.
01:06:05.000 And let's listen to this.
01:06:07.000 This is Till the End.
01:06:09.000 Frankly, we should make videos.
01:06:10.000 Why don't we make videos?
01:06:11.000 I mean, that didn't take very long.
01:06:13.000 Let's do videos.
01:06:14.000 We just got to do it.
01:06:16.000 So, Till the End is like reminds me of Weekend at Bernie's.
01:06:19.000 Remember that movie?
01:06:20.000 Yeah, of course I do.
01:06:20.000 I use it as a reference throughout the presidency of Joe Biden.
01:06:23.000 So, that's kind of the I imagine that like Weekend at Bernie's.
01:06:28.000 Okay.
01:06:40.000 We gotta work it out.
01:06:42.000 We gotta find a way.
01:06:45.000 We'll remember these three words when we don't know the words to say.
01:06:49.000 We're never backing down.
01:06:51.000 Whatever comes our way.
01:06:53.000 Oh, we'll remember these three words when we don't know the words to say.
01:06:58.000 Oh, we'll remember these three words when we don't know the words to say.
01:07:02.000 I love you.
01:07:03.000 I love you.
01:07:04.000 I love you to the end.
01:07:06.000 I love you.
01:07:07.000 I love you.
01:07:09.000 I love you to the end.
01:07:10.000 When I don't know the words to say, let's just say it again.
01:07:15.000 I love you.
01:07:28.000 We gotta take a stand, we got the light of day There's power in these three words, whatever comes our way There's power in these three words, whatever comes our way I love you, I love you, I love you till the end.
01:07:46.000 I love you, I love you, I love you till the end.
01:07:50.000 When we don't know the rest to say, let's just say it again.
01:08:09.000 Some optimism there from beloved Jake Smith, from his album Bad Days Behind.
01:08:18.000 Yeah, I was just thinking about times I've been to listening parties and stuff like that.
01:08:22.000 And even when I first heard the concept of listening parties, we're like, we're just going, we're going to listen to it.
01:08:27.000 We're just going to listen to it.
01:08:29.000 Check out this.
01:08:30.000 Did you put that thing in there?
01:08:31.000 Yeah, 29.
01:08:32.000 Check out this, mate.
01:08:33.000 Right.
01:08:33.000 This is very funny.
01:08:34.000 This is British footballer Paul Skulls.
01:08:38.000 Paul Skulls is a really brilliant Man United player and England player.
01:08:42.000 And on a podcast, he's been asked about music.
01:08:46.000 Just listen to this.
01:08:47.000 I don't like music.
01:08:48.000 I've not asked about it.
01:08:49.000 You are absolutely outrageous, I've got to say.
01:08:52.000 I've not asked one bit about music.
01:08:53.000 Right, hang on a minute.
01:08:55.000 If you're in the car, you must have a bit of music on.
01:08:57.000 Talk sport.
01:08:58.000 What about if you're training?
01:08:59.000 Talk sport.
01:09:00.000 You listen to.
01:09:00.000 Talk sport is like a sport radio station.
01:09:03.000 That's all it is.
01:09:03.000 Listen to fucking.
01:09:05.000 Ali McCoyst while you're bench pressing.
01:09:07.000 Much rather than do that.
01:09:08.000 And Simon Jordan.
01:09:10.000 Yeah.
01:09:10.000 I'd never put music on it ever in my life.
01:09:12.000 Weirdly, I can sort of.
01:09:15.000 Just about accepts he doesn't watch films.
01:09:17.000 I can accept that.
01:09:18.000 But, you know, like you have that death row meal.
01:09:21.000 If you had to listen to one song before your time's up, what would it be?
01:09:25.000 I wouldn't choose one.
01:09:28.000 You just fucking have your last three or four minutes of life in complete silence.
01:09:31.000 What difference is that gonna fucking make to me?
01:09:33.000 Well, you might just go.
01:09:34.000 That's.
01:09:35.000 Unbelievable.
01:09:36.000 Like, what I love about that is, see, Paul Scholes, when he was a player, there was something about him that was sort of monastic.
01:09:43.000 Like, he had the vibe of someone that was very, very focused.
01:09:46.000 Like, on all the people around him.
01:09:48.000 It was a time where football was really glamorous.
01:09:50.000 David Beckham was like one of his primary, even Ryan Giggs and elsewhere at Liverpool.
01:09:55.000 Like they had the Spice Boys.
01:09:56.000 Everything had gotten real glamorous.
01:09:57.000 And Paul Skulls was like from another era.
01:09:59.000 Like, I don't fucking care about football.
01:10:01.000 I mean, excuse me, anything.
01:10:03.000 Football was his religion.
01:10:05.000 And like, it doesn't surprise me that he doesn't watch films and doesn't listen to music.
01:10:10.000 He doesn't care.
01:10:12.000 I find it sort of refreshing.
01:10:14.000 And also, Paddy McGuinness is the comedian whose podcast that is asking that question.
01:10:19.000 But would you have a death row track?
01:10:22.000 Why does it matter?
01:10:23.000 That's what he was saying.
01:10:23.000 What's the fucking point?
01:10:24.000 It reveals he's actually got something there.
01:10:28.000 But the point of music is, of course, I suppose, it's a universal language that shows that there are, like someone was saying the other day, that you could meet people that had never encountered a culture and they would understand the difference between dissonance and resonance, between melody and cacophony.
01:10:44.000 And that's a sort of indication of supreme intelligence.
01:10:47.000 I think it's disarming too.
01:10:49.000 Music is disarming.
01:10:50.000 Like if I've.
01:10:51.000 If I'm on a plane talking to somebody and I say, Yeah, I'm a musician, it's usually a good conversation.
01:10:57.000 If I say I sell insurance, they'll be like, Oh, put the headphones in.
01:11:03.000 I just haven't found that it's, you know, a good conversation.
01:11:06.000 Do say, I'm a musician.
01:11:07.000 Would you like to do a collab?
01:11:10.000 Are you a Christian?
01:11:10.000 We could do a collaboration album right now.
01:11:12.000 How long's the flight?
01:11:14.000 We've got an hour until Nashville.
01:11:15.000 Right.
01:11:16.000 Record this on your phone.
01:11:17.000 Oh, no.
01:11:17.000 Porn images.
01:11:18.000 Quick.
01:11:18.000 Get that off.
01:11:19.000 Kia.
01:11:20.000 So listen, Jake's new album, Bad.
01:11:22.000 Days Behind is available on Spotify or wherever you get your music.
01:11:25.000 There's a link in the description.
01:11:27.000 I'm very proud of what you've done, Jake.
01:11:28.000 It's very beautiful and very creative.
01:11:30.000 And I think that part of our future, if it's your will, Lord, is to work together in creativity.
01:11:36.000 Where, you know, at the moment, the way things are dynamically organized, and frankly, I'm a bit over it, is me sort of, you know, talking the whole time.
01:11:44.000 I'd rather do different stuff.
01:11:46.000 Massey, there's a stand up comedian.
01:11:47.000 And as I understand, Massey, who edits our content, and a stand up comedian.
01:11:53.000 You know, I think that what we want is a kind of a return to folk culture.
01:11:56.000 As soon as I did, do you know what?
01:11:58.000 I've been so schooled by the culture that someone told me this that they had, they went to a cottage in Provence in South France and they opened a door and there was like some scratched out etching on the wall and then it had like FB or whatever initials on it.
01:12:13.000 And then they found out that the Irish artist, Francis Bacon, who was a great genius, had stayed there and that it probably was Francis Bacon that had done this thing.
01:12:23.000 And straight away in my mind, I was like, how much is it worth?
01:12:25.000 Like, I've been coached by the culture to such a degree that, like, if something's not going to be monetized.
01:12:32.000 I don't see, like, you know, like, and I'm trying not to think like that.
01:12:36.000 Yeah.
01:12:36.000 You know, but actually, it's meant to be create things, create beautiful things, and share creative things in the spirit of love.
01:12:43.000 Create just to create.
01:12:44.000 Creators are supposed to create.
01:12:46.000 We can create together in love, and I hope that our future is that we get to create things together.
01:12:51.000 Let's play out on this.
01:12:53.000 It's on Jake Smith's album, Bad Days Behind, dedicated to his beautiful wife, Ali, and it's available.
01:13:00.000 There's a link in the description telling you where you can get it.
01:13:02.000 I'd be very careful before listening to any of that.
01:13:04.000 Masses stand up though.
01:13:05.000 He's started using the N word in a way that I'm not sure how I can track or trace.
01:13:11.000 And also, I think he's a dangerous both Iranian and Islamophobe.
01:13:16.000 And you don't see one of those every day.
01:13:18.000 Thanks for joining us.
01:13:18.000 We'll be back next time, not for more of the same, but for more of the different.
01:13:21.000 We're going to play out with Jake Smith's song It Takes Time.
01:13:38.000 It's been a hard day Man, it's been a hard year And I know what it's like to ask Where do we go from here?
01:14:02.000 But when you feel like giving in Or giving up When you've had enough,
01:14:13.000 it just takes time To figure out what really matters Time to get you on those ever afters Time to find what you really love I know you're dreaming for brighter Days,
01:14:43.000 and that's hard when you're standing in the rain.
01:14:49.000 But I know what's up ahead.
01:16:21.000 To figure out what really matters Time To get you on those ever afters Time
