Transcript

00:00:00.000 And we are live once again for cigar evening question and answer session with yours truly Tristan the talisman Tate.
00:00:19.000 If you don't know how these things work, if this is your first time joining us, welcome.
00:00:24.000 But what's going to happen essentially is this.
00:00:26.000 All day I've been going through a list of questions.
00:00:29.000 Questions about myself, about my life, people looking for advice.
00:00:34.000 And I have curated a list of questions.
00:00:37.000 And I'm going to be answering them, live, as I smoke this exact cigar.
00:00:42.000 Now, when the cigar is over, or when I decide I'm logging off, Then the Q&A is over.
00:00:48.000 If you do have questions while I'm doing this, you're free to send in super chats.
00:00:53.000 But before you do that, I'm going to tell you a little bit about the kind of questions that I choose to answer, also to stop people wasting their time and sending me nonsense questions.
00:01:02.000 If you ask me a question personal about myself, like, Tristan, what is your favorite color?
00:01:08.000 I may well answer that.
00:01:10.000 It's a bit generic, but you understand the point.
00:01:12.000 If you ask a question which I think the answer could apply to lots of people, like, hey Tristan, I'm struggling with a breakup because of X reason or Y reason, I may well answer that.
00:01:23.000 My last livestream, 1.5 million people so far have watched it.
00:01:27.000 And I understand that a lot of people could benefit from hearing the answer, but if you ask me something super specific about advice for yourself, and I'm warning you because I had loads of Super Chats last time, I'm not going to answer it.
00:01:41.000 Hey Tristan, I'm 16 and a half years old and I'm working in a fish market in Mozambique.
00:01:46.000 My dream is to become a circus juggler.
00:01:48.000 What do you think? Don't fucking send me these stupid questions.
00:01:52.000 Don't send me these stupid questions because I'm not going to reply.
00:01:55.000 Because answering you and you specifically is not going to benefit the other 1.5 million people who will end up watching this stream.
00:02:01.000 So keep your questions...
00:02:03.000 Interesting. Keep your questions concise or specific to me or general about the public and that way your question may get answered.
00:02:11.000 So first I'm going to light this cigar and then I'm going to pick up my phone because this is not an emergency meeting.
00:02:17.000 There is not Mr.
00:02:18.000 Producer and sound effects and videos and photos popping up on the screen.
00:02:22.000 It's just me with a live camera.
00:02:24.000 I can see myself on my laptop here and I've got my phone with all of your questions coming through as we speak.
00:02:30.000 So Let me light my cigar first.
00:02:34.000 I could have lit this before I started.
00:02:38.000 But I feel like part of the charm of the cigar night is watching me light this.
00:02:42.000 And last cigar evening I didn't talk about suits or cigars.
00:02:45.000 I thought people wouldn't want to hear that.
00:02:47.000 But it turns out people do.
00:02:50.000 So this is an Arturo Fuentes cigar.
00:02:53.000 And the most important thing to know about this particular cigar stick is that it was gifted to me by Steven Seagal.
00:03:02.000 The 1980s action movie hero, Steven Seagal.
00:03:05.000 That's right, the one and only. If you don't know who Steven Seagal is, shame on you.
00:03:09.000 But that's where this cigar comes from.
00:03:14.000 And honestly, it's limited edition.
00:03:16.000 It is one of the finest cigars I've ever smoked.
00:03:19.000 Not just because it comes from Mr.
00:03:20.000 Seagal, because it's actually a top quality product.
00:03:23.000 So, Arturo Fuentes classic Cuban cigar brand.
00:03:28.000 I'd highly recommend them.
00:03:29.000 And if you can, Somehow meet Steven Seagal and he gives you a cigar, it's going to be an excellent one.
00:03:36.000 But that probably won't happen to most of you.
00:03:38.000 I have picked up my phone now and I'm going to get to the first question.
00:03:43.000 So last time a lot of people were upset that I didn't answer questions about my suits.
00:03:48.000 So I'm going to very quickly, before I moved on to the most asked question of this particular session, talk about my suits and the way I dress.
00:03:57.000 Three years ago, I wore tailored clothing.
00:04:07.000 Not as nice as the tailored clothing I wear now, because I changed tailor to the finest tailors in the world.
00:04:13.000 Now, the finest tailors in the world are all on a single street in London called Savile Row.
00:04:17.000 And my particular tailor shop has been open since 1849.
00:04:21.000 They make suits for the King of England, royal family.
00:04:24.000 But the reason people comment on my suits specifically, and not the King's suits, not Members of Parliament's suits...
00:04:32.000 Is for one particular reason.
00:04:34.000 Now three years ago I was not in the best shape.
00:04:35.000 I was dealing with some injuries. I had some rehabilitation issues.
00:04:38.000 I didn't have my abs.
00:04:39.000 I wasn't looking as jacked as I normally do.
00:04:42.000 I, when I got into shape, noticed people complimenting my suits all the time.
00:04:49.000 Because it's not actually the suit that you're complimenting.
00:04:53.000 It's how I look in the suit.
00:04:56.000 Plenty of millionaires, billionaires, rich people around the world probably get their suits made at the exact same tailor I do, but the reason I look so good in them is because I'm the type of guy who will wear a $10,000 suit, who will also put in the work and the effort every day to stay in good shape, to make sure I've got wide shoulders, to make sure I've got a slim waist, To make sure I've got abs.
00:05:16.000 To make sure I've got pecs and biceps.
00:05:18.000 That is the secret to looking good in one of my suits.
00:05:20.000 So, if you're young and you can't afford $10,000 for a suit, which a lot of you can't.
00:05:24.000 I certainly couldn't when I was younger.
00:05:26.000 My advice to you would be get into great shape.
00:05:29.000 Find a suit that fits and make sure that you never get out of shape.
00:05:32.000 Obviously, tailoring improves.
00:05:34.000 Fabric quality improves.
00:05:35.000 It all does improve as your budgets go up.
00:05:39.000 But being in shape, I think, is the cornerstone of why everyone compliments my suits.
00:05:42.000 I could have this exact same outfit on if I was 100 pounds heavier and fat, even if the suit was perfectly made for me.
00:05:49.000 I don't think people would be complimenting me exactly the same.
00:05:52.000 So keep that in mind.
00:05:54.000 It's not the suit. It's not the suit that makes the man.
00:06:00.000 And speaking of being in shape, I have to touch on this briefly because it was the single most asked question.
00:06:07.000 For this cigar meeting.
00:06:09.000 Which is, Tristan Tate, what do you think of the recent controversy about the Liver King?
00:06:18.000 And the Liver King is obviously somebody who tries very, very hard to stay in shape.
00:06:22.000 So it flows on perfectly from my last question.
00:06:24.000 I'll tell you what I think about the Liver King.
00:06:30.000 And this answer may upset a few people.
00:06:33.000 Because I'm sure a lot of you want me to sit here and trash the liver king and drag his name through the dirt.
00:06:39.000 He actually reached out to me about two weeks before the steroid proof was released.
00:06:46.000 When it was proven that he was in fact on steroids.
00:06:49.000 Most people looking at him knew that people who look like that are on steroids.
00:06:54.000 You have to be a very, very rare, exceptional freak of nature to look like that if you weren't on steroids.
00:07:00.000 I... Got a message from him and he reached out to me saying that he was going to come to Dubai and we should do something together.
00:07:07.000 The reason I didn't reply or get in touch or make anything happen between us was not because I have anything against the Liver King or had anything against the Liver King at the time.
00:07:16.000 It's because I didn't see how our brands complemented each other.
00:07:20.000 He eats raw meat, you know, works out a lot, sleeps on hardwood floors, you know, tries to pitch this primal lifestyle.
00:07:27.000 I like champagne and caviar and wear nice suits and don't walk around shirtless.
00:07:32.000 I didn't see how we could collaborate in any way besides taking a few pictures together.
00:07:37.000 So I never got together with the Liver King.
00:07:39.000 But my thoughts on them are as follows.
00:07:42.000 If you are a fan of the Liver King, your relationship with him and how you see...
00:07:51.000 How his content has changed you will be how you should judge him.
00:07:55.000 I'm going to say that one more time. The way his content has impacted you should be how you judge him.
00:08:02.000 Now there are people out there who were buying his supplements thinking I can look like this guy naturally just using these supplements and working out who obviously didn't end up looking like that.
00:08:13.000 And there are people who listened to what the Liver King said and thought, you know what, I'm just going to get my lazy fat ass up and hit the gym a little bit.
00:08:19.000 So I believe that he's positively impacted millions of people.
00:08:23.000 But the thing is with the internet, everything you hear on the internet you need to take with a pinch of salt.
00:08:30.000 Everything besides the words of Tristan and Andrew Tate.
00:08:33.000 Because for me and my brother, integrity is something that we do not compromise on.
00:08:37.000 We've never compromised on it.
00:08:39.000 My brother was accused of being on steroids by a...
00:08:41.000 Not accused. It was a subject brought up by a guy who we know.
00:08:45.000 More plates, more dates. And Andrew said, feel free to come and fucking test me.
00:08:48.000 You know, our integrity isn't in question because we have no skeletons in our closet.
00:08:53.000 So I don't really care about the liver king.
00:08:56.000 I think he's helped a lot of people.
00:08:58.000 I think a lot of people feel hurt and feel scammed by him right now.
00:09:02.000 What I would say is this.
00:09:04.000 If you are going to ever pursue a career in the public eye, if you are making content, hoping to go viral or hoping to blow up, it may well happen at some point.
00:09:15.000 I'm not sure the Liver King expected to get as famous as he did.
00:09:19.000 I certainly didn't expect to get as famous as I did.
00:09:23.000 But the key to mine and Andrew's lasting and ongoing success is the fact that we have no skeletons in our closet.
00:09:30.000 So... Be honest all the time, especially if you're pursuing a life in the public eye.
00:09:36.000 When you watch people on the internet, you know there are lots of people who have had very bad skeletons in their closet from the Reverend Ted Haggard to True Geordie and so on.
00:09:45.000 Daz Black being another one.
00:09:47.000 You know, don't believe what you hear on the internet.
00:09:49.000 So I don't know how the Liver King is going to repair his reputation with his fans.
00:09:53.000 I don't know how he's going to repair his reputation with you.
00:09:55.000 Maybe you like him. Maybe you hate him.
00:09:57.000 I didn't ever watch any of his content and I never bought any of his supplements.
00:10:00.000 So I personally have nothing against him.
00:10:02.000 So, you know, I wish his fans all the best.
00:10:04.000 But it was kind of obvious that he took something to enhance his body.
00:10:10.000 I mean, that's what I would think.
00:10:20.000 Lots of super chats coming in already.
00:10:21.000 Thank you.
00:10:23.000 Now, I'm not sure if I should...
00:10:24.000 I wasn't going to talk about this, but now I am going to talk about it.
00:10:29.000 I've got a lot of controversial subjects, because people are asking my opinion on a lot of controversial topics.
00:10:34.000 And these are topics that I've usually avoided.
00:10:36.000 I've avoided them on platforms like the previous one, CuckTube, that I was on, because I understand that it's very easy to be misconstrued and taken out of context when discussing very sensitive issues.
00:10:50.000 So, with that in mind, I'm going to dive right in here.
00:10:54.000 Hey Tristan, I know you are a biracial man.
00:10:58.000 I'd like to know what your thoughts are on Disney casting the new Ariel Mermaid as a black woman.
00:11:08.000 And the room goes silent, talking on the internet about race issues.
00:11:13.000 I am going to tell you what I think about Disney casting the new Ariel from Little Mermaid as a black woman.
00:11:21.000 Messages are popping up on my phone.
00:11:22.000 Don't talk about it. Let me put my phone down.
00:11:29.000 I'm going to say, how dare you, Disney?
00:11:35.000 How dare you cast Ariel as a black woman?
00:11:41.000 I think for a company that prides itself in imagination, that is the least imaginative thing you could possibly do.
00:11:54.000 Now wherever you think I'm going with this, you're going to be wrong, so sit back and listen up.
00:12:01.000 I think that if you hired a bunch of movie makers who had never seen The Little Mermaid before, And said, alright guys, we're going to make a show about a mermaid who lives under the sea, who's half human.
00:12:14.000 And they went off and animated or hired or cast a black actress or made the character black and said, here we go, we're finished with the movie.
00:12:23.000 You could say, oh, well in my mind she was white and redheaded.
00:12:26.000 But yeah, cool, fair enough mistake.
00:12:27.000 Cool, you hired an actress. You know, good for you.
00:12:29.000 Cool, let's run with the movie.
00:12:30.000 But that's not what happened, is it?
00:12:32.000 What happened is...
00:12:34.000 A bunch of executives at Disney sat around at a table and said, I have a good idea to represent black people.
00:12:41.000 Let's make Ariel black.
00:12:43.000 Let's take a character who is historically white and redheaded.
00:12:46.000 Forget about the little redhead girls who like having a Disney princess that they can look up to.
00:12:50.000 Let's turn this character black because that will make black people feel good.
00:12:55.000 Now, I am a multiracial, biracial man.
00:12:59.000 My father was black.
00:13:00.000 My mother is white. And I can't speak for all black people.
00:13:04.000 But I can speak as a mixed race man with a black nephew and say I think that is the laziest, most pathetic excuse for representing black people on modern day television.
00:13:19.000 Let me tell you something.
00:13:20.000 We're going to role play something. In the 1980s, they did it right.
00:13:24.000 They did representation on television the right way.
00:13:28.000 In 1982 or 1983, an executive walked into an office at an American television studio and said, listen up guys, we don't have enough black people on television.
00:13:38.000 And the executives and the producers all sat around and said, And let's cast Will Smith as a character who is living in an upper-class,
00:14:05.000 well-to-do black family, but still struggling with some of the issues that modern-day black teenagers deal with.
00:14:11.000 Let's call it the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, let's not portray black people in a negative light, and let's do something positive for the black community by making this show.
00:14:19.000 And the executives sat around and discussed it and they thumbs up it and signed it into reality.
00:14:24.000 And The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, one of my favorite shows when I was a kid, was born.
00:14:27.000 The Cosby Show, exactly the same.
00:14:29.000 They sat around and said, let's make a proud, well-to-do black family and put them in front of everybody on the television every single day without portraying black characters in a negative light.
00:14:40.000 That is how you do black representation on television.
00:14:45.000 What you do nowadays, Disney executives and Netflix executives, who are listening, is you are lazy.
00:14:51.000 And you are not treating the issue seriously.
00:14:55.000 Today, 2021-2022, a television executive runs to the door and says, Guys!
00:15:01.000 Netflix! We don't have enough black people on television.
00:15:05.000 What do we do about this?
00:15:07.000 And you dummies sit around and go, Um...
00:15:12.000 Black Vikings?
00:15:13.000 And you all cheer and say, yeah, black Vikings, wonderful idea.
00:15:17.000 Let's make Vikings black.
00:15:19.000 It's an insult to Norse history.
00:15:22.000 It's an insult to European history.
00:15:24.000 It's an insult to black history.
00:15:26.000 It's not factually correct.
00:15:28.000 And it doesn't help black people.
00:15:30.000 It is lazy.
00:15:31.000 And one of you clowns at Disney sat around when the executive said, we need more representation of black people on television.
00:15:38.000 And you went, uh...
00:15:41.000 You know the Little Mermaid?
00:15:42.000 There's been like 20 movies with her in it.
00:15:46.000 She's a character at every Disney theme park.
00:15:49.000 And she's a white woman with red hair.
00:15:52.000 Why don't we just make her black?
00:15:54.000 And you patted yourselves on the back and said, Well done.
00:15:59.000 You've done your bit for black people.
00:16:01.000 You should be ashamed of yourself.
00:16:03.000 That is the least imaginative way to help black representation...
00:16:08.000 I've ever heard of. And it's not just that.
00:16:10.000 I see it all the time.
00:16:12.000 I was watching a movie recently and I had to turn it off halfway through.
00:16:16.000 Mary, Queen of Scots.
00:16:17.000 It was set during the reign of Elizabeth I in England when there were no black people in England.
00:16:25.000 Keep in mind, the first black man ever to live in London was a historical figure.
00:16:29.000 His name was Cornelius. And he didn't move to London until 50 years after Mary, Queen of Scots was set.
00:16:35.000 Where's the movie about Cornelius?
00:16:37.000 You want to make movies with black people in it set in medieval England?
00:16:40.000 Make a movie about him.
00:16:42.000 Make a movie about his life story.
00:16:43.000 What you don't do is take a time period that had no black characters and cast a whole bunch of black actors.
00:16:50.000 I'll tell you why. Because I don't want my young black nephew watching Mary Queen of Scots thinking, well, in the 1500s we were advisors to the queen and generals to armies.
00:16:59.000 No, you weren't. No, black people weren't and white people teaching that they were is a way of getting rid of the guilt that they carry.
00:17:09.000 And it's absolute nonsense.
00:17:11.000 It is a lazy attempt at casting black people in modern day television.
00:17:16.000 If you think of some of the black people in history, I actually got this up.
00:17:19.000 I'm going to read the full title out.
00:17:21.000 In 1861, a slave named Robert Smalls stole a Confederate ship and delivered it to the Union Army.
00:17:28.000 He was given command of the ship.
00:17:29.000 He became a major general, bought the house where he was a slave, and let the former owner's wife live there when she developed dementia.
00:17:36.000 He learned how to read and write and won an election against a white man and served five years in Congress.
00:17:41.000 Where is the movie about Robert Smalls?
00:17:43.000 Where is the movie about Robert Smalls?
00:17:46.000 You don't make one.
00:17:47.000 What you'll do is you'll make a movie about Vikings and turn them black.
00:17:51.000 It's insulting and it's lazy.
00:17:54.000 What's his name? Ashuga?
00:17:56.000 Is it Ashuga or Ashuka?
00:17:58.000 I believe he was a black slave sold by a Portuguese merchant vessel to Japanese men who set him free and he became a samurai warrior in feudal Japan.
00:18:09.000 A black African man.
00:18:10.000 Where's the Netflix series about him?
00:18:13.000 Animated or non-animated?
00:18:14.000 That would be a fucking killer of a show!
00:18:17.000 Make the series!
00:18:18.000 There's a job for a black actor, but what you don't do, and the BBC did this, is take a classic story like the story of Troy, where Achilles is described in the original text as a fair-skinned man with long blonde hair, and make the actor black.
00:18:34.000 You don't take Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII's wife, who was a white woman, and make the actress black.
00:18:39.000 It's lazy and it's insulting.
00:18:42.000 As a mixed-race man, it offends me.
00:18:44.000 So no. I don't think that The Little Mermaid should be black.
00:18:49.000 What I think Disney should do, if you are so imaginative and filled with imagination as you claim you are, is create a new princess.
00:18:56.000 Maybe a princess in feudal Africa.
00:19:00.000 Maybe make a story about black characters and include more black people.
00:19:05.000 Don't just blackwash your characters.
00:19:07.000 It's lazy and it's stupid.
00:19:08.000 And I personally can't stand it.
00:19:11.000 And black people shouldn't stand for it either.
00:19:14.000 You should go to a movie where they make the Vikings black and walk out and say, why are they putting black people in the Vikings movies?
00:19:19.000 My kids are going to think that we were Vikings.
00:19:21.000 It's absolutely ridiculous.
00:19:23.000 But I will give a quick honorable mention to people who do make movies and TV shows and cast all black cast.
00:19:31.000 People like Jordan Peele. I watched a movie recently.
00:19:34.000 It was called Us.
00:19:36.000 It was a horror movie by that director Jordan Peele.
00:19:39.000 And I have...
00:19:40.000 I've sat around with my black friends.
00:19:42.000 I mixed race myself. I know I look super white.
00:19:44.000 For all the comments, I know I look super white.
00:19:45.000 I mixed race myself. I sat around with my black friends talking about horror movies.
00:19:49.000 And they're like, ah, yeah, that's white people shit.
00:19:50.000 The house is haunted. I'd act like this.
00:19:52.000 I'd act like that. You know, to actually watch Us, which was a movie directed by Jordan Peele, which was a horror movie starring a black family and a bunch of other black actors, it was a wonderful movie because it was an original story.
00:20:06.000 Great that he cast an all-black cast, because why shouldn't you?
00:20:08.000 It's not a movie that's being redone.
00:20:10.000 It's not a plot that should involve white people.
00:20:12.000 It's a plot set in the United States, and, you know, 13-14% of Americans are African American.
00:20:16.000 And it was hilarious!
00:20:18.000 The way that they behaved in the horror movie was absolutely different from the way white people behaved, analyzing their body counts, etc.
00:20:24.000 And it was a great movie. So shout-out to great directors like him.
00:20:27.000 But, you know, when I hear they're trying to make James Bond black, I mean, the 007 in the latest one, I know it's not James Bond, but with some black woman, I'm like, just write new characters.
00:20:37.000 Write new black characters and make the movies great.
00:20:40.000 There's no need to do this.
00:20:42.000 And black people should demand more from companies like Disney.
00:20:45.000 That's what I think about The Little Mermaid being black.
00:20:50.000 So, long answer, I know.
00:20:52.000 Did my cigar go out? Ah, all the people who warned me against speaking up against that are saying that was a very good answer.
00:21:00.000 What did you think I was going to say? You think I'm some white supremacist?
00:21:03.000 I'm mixed race. Oh, and during my last stream, a few complainers complained about me smoking my cigar or relighting my cigar too often and taking up too much time.
00:21:23.000 To that, I would say...
00:21:25.000 Don't fucking watch me then.
00:21:26.000 It's a cigar night. That's the whole idea behind this.
00:21:30.000 I'm smoking. So I'm going to get my cigar going.
00:21:33.000 I'm gonna move on to the next point I was going to talk about today.
00:21:37.000 Because I have hundreds of questions from hundreds of interesting people.
00:21:45.000 I'm going to start reading some names out as well.
00:21:51.000 Hey Tristan! Hours ago, Russia freed WNBA star Brittany Griner in a prison swap with the US, releasing a Russian arms dealer, Viktor Bout.
00:22:03.000 I believe that was the guy who Gods of War, the movie Gods of War with Nicolas Cage was about.
00:22:09.000 So, what do I think about Brittany Griner being released?
00:22:16.000 I think that Russia have proven, once again, that they are smarter than the United States.
00:22:23.000 Brittany Griner is a criminal.
00:22:26.000 She carried marijuana, enough to distribute, who cares if she was going to smoke it all herself, into Russia, which has very strict drug smuggling laws.
00:22:36.000 I'm here in the UAE, the United Arab Emirates, and you hear stories out here.
00:22:41.000 Oh, this guy was caught with just one bag of coke and he did six years.
00:22:46.000 You hear stories like this in Thailand, where I used to live.
00:22:49.000 I heard of an Australian DJ. Young kid.
00:22:51.000 He was... I think all the politicians got involved.
00:22:54.000 He was found with 70 ecstasy pills.
00:22:57.000 And they gave him one year in jail for every pill.
00:23:00.000 Now... People love to cry when stuff like this happens.
00:23:05.000 There have been people crying about Brittany Griner this entire time.
00:23:09.000 To which I say...
00:23:10.000 If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.
00:23:15.000 You have to understand that it is a unique form of arrogance to believe that every country has the exact same rules, moral standards, as you do in your country.
00:23:27.000 To think, oh, you know, I play basketball and I love smoking weed.
00:23:29.000 I'm just going to bring some weed to Russia.
00:23:31.000 You know, it's just weed. The Russians don't see it that way.
00:23:33.000 The Thais don't see it that way.
00:23:35.000 The Arabs do not see it that way.
00:23:36.000 I would have been perfectly happy for that woman to stay in jail for the rest of her natural life, or however long the Russians see fit, because it is none of America's business how Russia conducts its criminal justice system.
00:23:48.000 I don't care if she was an American citizen.
00:23:50.000 And if I was in, if a friend of mine was in Russia smoking weed and got locked up for 10 years, I'd be the first one on this stream saying, my friend, this guy who you know I associate with, is actually a dumbass.
00:24:01.000 So, you know, I hear all the bad stories all the time of the UAE or Thailand and people say, oh, it's unfair how they treat people.
00:24:08.000 If you know the laws of a country, do not permit your behavior that you do back home, then do not go to said country.
00:24:14.000 Snoop Dogg. Shout out to Snoop Dogg.
00:24:19.000 Because I know people here in the UAE who are talking about bringing him here for concerts and appearances.
00:24:25.000 And Snoop Dogg quite rightfully said, listen, man.
00:24:28.000 I gotta smoke, man.
00:24:30.000 I can't come. Gotta smoke.
00:24:31.000 Need my weed. That's my Snoop Dogg impression.
00:24:34.000 You can rate my Snoop Dogg impression in the comments section out of 10.
00:24:36.000 And he said, no, I'm not coming because I like to smoke my marijuana.
00:24:40.000 Bravo, Snoop Dogg.
00:24:41.000 Because he's obviously...
00:24:44.000 An intelligent man. Because you know what a dumb man would have done?
00:24:47.000 Yeah, sure, I'll come to the UAE, give me my paycheck.
00:24:49.000 If I just brings one bag of weed, they won't mind.
00:24:53.000 And he would have ended up in a Middle Eastern jail for 20 years.
00:24:56.000 And people would have, dumb people, would have been like, oh, poor Snoop Dogg.
00:25:00.000 Snoop Dogg's got a brain.
00:25:01.000 Snoop Dogg is like, no, I'm not going to these countries where I can't smoke my marijuana.
00:25:05.000 I like my marijuana.
00:25:06.000 And fine by them. I would happily go to a country where you couldn't smoke cigars or drink alcohol.
00:25:11.000 If that was the rules of the country, I'd go and visit and I'd lay off the booze and I wouldn't smoke a single cigar and I'd leave and do my stuff back home.
00:25:17.000 So what do I actually think about this woman?
00:25:19.000 I think that Russia got a fucking whale of a deal by getting back their dangerous arms dealer and we got back some idiot who can't resist weed so much that she bought a bunch on a plane to Russia.
00:25:35.000 So, I mean, well done to Russia.
00:25:38.000 I mean, that's all I can say.
00:25:40.000 Enjoy your arms dealer back.
00:25:42.000 Oh, don't worry, we have a WNBA star.
00:25:45.000 As though anyone watches the WNBA anyway.
00:25:48.000 Who knew who Brittany Griner was before this happened?
00:25:51.000 Yeah, if you can't do the time, don't do the crime.
00:25:54.000 So, shame on the United States.
00:25:56.000 You know, when there are still people like Joe Exotic in jail, and we're...
00:26:00.000 Doing deals for Russian armed dealers to release a woman who clearly violated a foreign country's drug laws.
00:26:11.000 I think that's a total scam.
00:26:14.000 So, Bikizim, MGH, on Twitter, asks...
00:26:20.000 And I'm going to give you context in a moment if you don't know what this question is about.
00:26:22.000 Twisted, I have an idea. You're building a castle next to Dracula's castle.
00:26:26.000 Build a hotel. A hotel would do wonderful business and a hotel would be amazing.
00:26:30.000 So for those of you who don't know...
00:26:32.000 I am building a castle in Romania, about 900 meters away from Dracula's historic castle, up on the hillside behind him.
00:26:46.000 And the reason I'm building that castle...
00:26:48.000 Is because I think that rich people are boring.
00:26:53.000 Rich people are boring.
00:26:55.000 Rich people want to go to the ski slopes, hire a bunch of hookers, sniff a bunch of cocaine, sit on a boat with a bunch of cocaine and a bunch of hookers.
00:27:05.000 And I don't understand why they all do the same thing.
00:27:09.000 I have decided to build a gothic castle in the heart of Transylvania because I want a castle.
00:27:17.000 Doesn't every boy want a castle?
00:27:18.000 You know, that part of me never died.
00:27:20.000 I have the money. I have the means to do it.
00:27:22.000 So I am building a castle. Now this question, specifically, is somebody asking, why don't I make my castle a hotel?
00:27:29.000 And I'm going to answer you exactly why I don't.
00:27:32.000 One reason is I promised the local mayor that I wouldn't.
00:27:36.000 There are lots of hotels around the area of Dracula's Castle.
00:27:39.000 It's a small village of a population of only 5,000.
00:27:42.000 And the local people run their hotels and they control the tourism and the commerce.
00:27:45.000 I have promised not to make my castle a hotel because I don't want to take any business or any money away from the local people.
00:27:52.000 But two, and most importantly, Get your own fucking castle.
00:27:57.000 Oh, you want me to make it a hotel?
00:27:59.000 So I could spend 15 million dollars and four years of stress building an epic castle.
00:28:05.000 And for a few hundred bucks a night, you could come along and run around it and take your Instagram pictures.
00:28:10.000 No. No access.
00:28:12.000 Get your own. I'm going to have armed guards armed with crossbows in full armor patrolling the castle walls with rabid dogs inside ready to tear intruders apart.
00:28:24.000 It is mine. That's why I don't want to make it into a hotel because I don't need anyone's fucking money.
00:28:29.000 I don't need a thousand bucks a night, two thousand bucks a night.
00:28:31.000 Oh, you want to have your wedding there?
00:28:33.000 You want to shoot a music video there?
00:28:34.000 How about build your own castle?
00:28:36.000 Because mine is for me.
00:28:38.000 I want to walk around butt naked Swirling a huge glass of brandy with five vampire girls all dressed up with their fangs on and shit.
00:28:49.000 I don't even know what I'm going to do.
00:28:50.000 I don't even know what I'm going to do.
00:28:52.000 But I'm going to do it.
00:28:54.000 Not you. So no, my castle is not going to become a hotel.
00:28:57.000 I would never do that. So never ask me that again, because I am furious.
00:29:01.000 I thought this was an interesting one.
00:29:02.000 I have two history-related questions here.
00:29:05.000 Actually, I have three. So let me try to find them all and lump them all together.
00:29:12.000 Johannes, RIP Johan, said on Twitter, What are your thoughts on history? Do you care about the history of the world, like World War I and World War II, etc.?
00:29:23.000 Do you think that learning history is important, or don't you give a fuck about it?
00:29:27.000 I actually, in my spare time for entertainment, read history books.
00:29:32.000 I love history documentaries.
00:29:34.000 I don't know how many books on history I've read.
00:29:35.000 I know world history better than a lot of people who are educated in world history.
00:29:39.000 It's one of my main passions.
00:29:41.000 So I'm going to move from that question onto...
00:29:44.000 If you could go back...
00:29:47.000 In any period of history, which one would you choose to visit and why?
00:29:52.000 And that is a question from Petrucci999 on Twitter.
00:29:59.000 I... I have two answers to that question.
00:30:05.000 My answers are as follows.
00:30:06.000 It depends on what go back in time means.
00:30:10.000 If I could go back in time for a few days and I had to blend in, be a member of the public, not get killed, that answer is very different from what I would do if I could just go back in time in an invisible ship and fly around and watch what was happening.
00:30:25.000 So I'm going to answer the invisible ship question first.
00:30:32.000 If I could go back in time, to any period in time, in an invisible ship and watch what was going on, I would watch the battles of Napoleon Bonaparte in Europe in the late 1700s and early 1800s.
00:30:48.000 I would watch the Battle of Austerlitz in the modern day Czech Republic and just see how the whole thing played out.
00:30:54.000 Actually in person. No recordings of it obviously ever happened.
00:30:57.000 All we have are the written accounts.
00:30:59.000 I would just love to see that.
00:31:01.000 I think that would be an experience like no other.
00:31:04.000 If I had to blend in though...
00:31:06.000 I wouldn't go back to the Battle of Austerlitz because people wouldn't know what fucking language.
00:31:10.000 People would think, no, I'm a spy or a traitor from England.
00:31:13.000 Probably speaking some weird dialect because I don't speak like people did back in the 1800s.
00:31:17.000 And I would probably be shot on the spot.
00:31:21.000 And if I wasn't shot on the spot, I wouldn't want to fight for either the French or the Russian army because that would just suck.
00:31:28.000 So if I had to blend in, what I would do is I would go back...
00:31:32.000 Two, the opening of the Colosseum in ancient Rome, dressed like a normal Roman citizen or villager, and get my way into the Colosseum and watch the gladiatorial games in silence.
00:31:44.000 I believe that I could do that without getting murdered, hopefully.
00:31:47.000 And I think that watching the gladiatorial games would be an experience, again, unlike no other.
00:31:53.000 Fighters, boxers, you know, I've been to all sorts of events.
00:31:55.000 It's the modern-day combat sport.
00:31:57.000 But, yeah, that was really...
00:32:00.000 Brutal and ruthless and I think most men, if you're honest, you'd like to see that.
00:32:04.000 You wouldn't like it to happen today.
00:32:07.000 Because I wouldn't want anyone pitted against another man in, you know, mortal combat for somebody's entertainment.
00:32:13.000 I think that would be immoral.
00:32:14.000 But the fact that it happened anyway in the past, if I could go back and actually watch it and view it myself, I would watch it.
00:32:21.000 I guess the closest thing that exists today is bullfighting in Spain.
00:32:25.000 In fact, bullfighting in Spain, if you didn't know, is actually a hangover from the Roman Empire.
00:32:29.000 It's not something that's uniquely Spanish.
00:32:31.000 It's a hangover from the days of the Roman Empire where people used to fight beasts.
00:32:35.000 And that's why you still have bullfighting in Spain today.
00:32:37.000 Would I go and watch that? Not really.
00:32:39.000 I kind of feel sorry for the bulls.
00:32:41.000 You know, I feel like at least make it fair.
00:32:43.000 Give the bulls an opportunity to kill the matador and actually win.
00:32:46.000 That would be more interesting. But yeah, I'd go back to ancient Rome and watch the gladiatorial games and the gladiatorial combat.
00:32:53.000 I think that would be amazing.
00:32:55.000 And my last history related question, Clayton, is why do you always talk like a time traveler from the 1800s?
00:33:09.000 I don't think I do talk like a time traveler from the 1800s.
00:33:12.000 I think you need to get a time machine and go back to the 1800s and realize I don't sound anything like them.
00:33:17.000 But maybe I am a time traveler from the 1800s.
00:33:20.000 Maybe that's why I'm building a vampire castle.
00:33:22.000 Maybe I am the living incarnate of Vlad Tepes Draculan.
00:33:25.000 I'm building a castle to re-establish the Kingdom of Transylvania to its former glory, and I'm going to go to London and start terrorizing people and biting them, etc., etc.
00:33:35.000 But no, that's definitely not the case.
00:33:38.000 So, do I move on to more touchy subjects, like black mermaids?
00:33:45.000 I think I do. I think I do.
00:33:51.000 Hey Talisman. What are your thoughts on going to college to learn about digital marketing?
00:33:57.000 Is it worth time going?
00:33:59.000 Would you start off yourself by learning and make some mistakes before getting educated?
00:34:04.000 Or would you not bother going to university at all?
00:34:06.000 That's from having a stroke RN on Twitter.
00:34:10.000 Unusual name. University.
00:34:13.000 Here's my problem with university.
00:34:20.000 University has complete and utter control on the business of lending money to young people.
00:34:34.000 Let's say you're 18 and you and four of your 18 year old friends have been going around your neighbourhood washing cars.
00:34:42.000 Thank you.
00:34:44.000 You've proved that you're hardworking.
00:34:45.000 You've proved that your business model is viable.
00:34:47.000 And you've made $5,000 washing cars.
00:34:50.000 You're living off this salary.
00:34:52.000 You have ads in the paper.
00:34:53.000 Your business is going well. And you all go to the bank.
00:34:57.000 And you say, hello, bank.
00:34:58.000 They say, hello, young 18-year-old men or women.
00:35:02.000 I would like to borrow some money to expand my car washing business.
00:35:06.000 I have a perfect business plan.
00:35:08.000 The business is already making money.
00:35:09.000 I'm paying my taxes.
00:35:11.000 It's all legit. I'd like to rent a premises here at this busy intersection and expand and take my car wash business to the next level.
00:35:20.000 The bank will say, No.
00:35:23.000 I don't trust you with $50,000.
00:35:25.000 Kiss my ass. You cannot have a loan until you're 40 years old.
00:35:29.000 18 year olds get lost. Screw your car wash business.
00:35:32.000 Leave me alone. If you are a young man whose grandfather or father ever gave them flying lessons in a small plane, and you've done a certain number of hours in a small plane, and you go to a bank and say, hey bank, I'm 18 years old, I would love to become a pilot.
00:35:48.000 I feel like that would be a wonderful career for me.
00:35:51.000 I've done this many hours flying in a small plane.
00:35:53.000 What I need is some commercial airline training so in a couple years I can apply for jobs at American Airways.
00:36:01.000 That's my dream.
00:36:03.000 Can you please lend me $50,000, even paid directly to a flying school, so I can finish my training as a pilot and I can go and fly aircraft?
00:36:14.000 They'll say, oh, that sounds very interesting.
00:36:15.000 No, get lost.
00:36:17.000 You can't have a loan.
00:36:19.000 And you can't be a pilot.
00:36:21.000 If you want to be a pilot, join the military and risk dying in one of our pointless wars.
00:36:25.000 Before I go off on a tangent, I'll silence myself.
00:36:27.000 Then if you survive our pointless war, you can have a pilot's license.
00:36:31.000 Ridiculous, but they will not lend you money.
00:36:34.000 Whereas, unlike the young focused man who wants to become a pilot, unlike the young focused individuals who are running the car wash and making good money and paying their taxes, if a lost young man Straight out of high school with very basic grades.
00:36:49.000 Doesn't know what he wants to do in life.
00:36:51.000 And approaches a loan center attached to a university.
00:36:55.000 And says, hi, I have no clue what I want to do.
00:36:58.000 I'm just some kid.
00:37:00.000 My grades are average.
00:37:02.000 I have no real aspirations.
00:37:04.000 But I think university or college is the next step.
00:37:08.000 I want to study gender studies.
00:37:11.000 They'll write you a big fat check for a hundred thousand dollars that you know, you now, have to go out with your gender studies degree and find a way of paying back and you are in debt and enslaved by the matrix forever!
00:37:29.000 Higher education has a monopoly on the financial system Lending money to young people.
00:37:38.000 Because they will only get loans for higher education.
00:37:45.000 If you want to learn internet marketing, you do not go to university.
00:37:48.000 There are use cases for university.
00:37:50.000 If you want to be a lawyer, good.
00:37:51.000 Go past the bar. If you want to learn internet marketing, you do not need to go to university and get that big $50,000 check which you then have to pay back with your internet marketing skills.
00:38:04.000 Because... People out there on the internet have created platforms that aren't unfairly biased towards young people that can teach you skills to make money.
00:38:14.000 Now, of course, I'm going to talk about the real world or the evolution of Hustlers University 2.0.
00:38:21.000 It's a program put together by my brother and myself.
00:38:25.000 It is a very Very unique system where we made sure that verified millionaires are giving lessons on how to make money in the field that made them rich.
00:38:40.000 Before you go to university to study gender studies, before you go to university to study business, what I would advise you to do is this.
00:38:48.000 Go to the faculty parking lot.
00:38:51.000 And say, what does this teacher teach?
00:38:54.000 What does this teacher teach? Point out all the vehicles.
00:38:56.000 The crappiest cars out there will be the business studies teachers.
00:39:00.000 So if this guy's so broke he can't even buy a nice car, why is he telling you about business for $100,000 a year?
00:39:06.000 That's called a racket.
00:39:07.000 It's called racketeering.
00:39:09.000 It's a scam.
00:39:10.000 Whereas if I lined up all the vehicles of my real-world professors, you'd be very impressed.
00:39:17.000 From Rolls Royces to Lamborghinis to G-Wagons.
00:39:20.000 Now, the real world is only $149 to join and a recurring $49 a month.
00:39:26.000 There's a link underneath this video.
00:39:28.000 It is the best and now the biggest educational platform outside of a traditional university that exists in the world.
00:39:37.000 It's the biggest educational platform in the world that isn't a traditional university.
00:39:41.000 And the reason is, is because it works.
00:39:44.000 So check it out.
00:39:45.000 Join on the link below. But traditional university, yeah, it can be a scam.
00:39:51.000 Unless you're very specific about what you want to do in life and very specific about where you want to go, you have no business just signing up to university and borrowing a bunch of money.
00:39:58.000 Even in countries where it's free, you'll learn a lot more in those three years working for businesses, trying to start your own business than you will listening to some broken professor talk to you about business.
00:40:09.000 Because in the countries where university is free, The professors are typically more broke than the other professors.
00:40:16.000 And who wants to learn from broke people?
00:40:17.000 Not me. So those are my thoughts on going to college.
00:40:24.000 You're welcome having a stroke right now.
00:40:26.000 I hope you mean a stroke as in like the one that you die from, not the other type of stroke.
00:40:31.000 Otherwise I wouldn't have answered your question.
00:40:33.000 Ah.
00:40:36.000 Jimmy James Jamil Jackson on Ghetto.
00:40:45.000 If you're not on Getter, get on it.
00:40:48.000 It's a wonderful social network.
00:40:49.000 There's a link to my Getter account just below this profile.
00:40:53.000 It says, Hey G, what if a girl has a body count of one but has slept with the same guy hundreds of times and she's still high value?
00:40:59.000 The answer to that question is yes, of course, if she has a body count of one and she's slept with one man.
00:41:03.000 You don't count the physical number of times a woman has had sex.
00:41:06.000 That's a very stupid question, but I put this one up on purpose because I want to talk a little bit about...
00:41:11.000 Female body count. Now, you've heard all of the arguments.
00:41:17.000 You've heard, of course, female body count matters a lot.
00:41:20.000 And you've heard the argument that it's always mattered because it was the only way to guarantee paternity.
00:41:25.000 You know, if a woman's only slept with you, you know the kids are yours before the days of DNA tests, etc.
00:41:29.000 That's something that my brother says a lot.
00:41:31.000 I heard a very interesting analogy by Patrick Bet-David.
00:41:35.000 About female body count, talking about job applications, saying if someone came to you to apply for a job and you saw that they've had one job for the past five years, you're much more likely to hire them and know that they take their job seriously than if someone comes to you and they've had 160 jobs in the last five years.
00:41:53.000 That was a very good analogy also.
00:41:55.000 So speaking about body count, I'm just going to add something that perhaps you haven't heard to the mix, because it's an argument and a point that That I think I have made up.
00:42:06.000 I'm not sure anyone has said it before, so it's a unique Tristan Tate take on body count, despite this stupid question, has led me into this.
00:42:12.000 So let me do a little bit more smoking.
00:42:15.000 That middle finger, of course, was for all the people thinking, why am I sitting watching Tristan take Relight his cigar?
00:42:34.000 Because I'm so passionate about the things that I speak about.
00:42:37.000 That I accidentally get sidetracked and my cigar starts to go out as excellent of a cigar as it is.
00:42:44.000 So I'm going to talk a little bit about female body count.
00:42:48.000 With an argument you perhaps haven't heard before.
00:42:51.000 I believe that women with high body counts...
00:42:56.000 And I'm not just talking about high body counts, because obviously a 35-year-old woman has slept with more men than an 18, 19-year-old woman.
00:43:03.000 I'm talking about as respective to their age.
00:43:07.000 If a woman who's 30 says she slept with seven men, it wouldn't faze you.
00:43:11.000 If a woman who was 16 said she slept with seven men, you'd be like, whoa.
00:43:15.000 So, here's why female body counts matter.
00:43:20.000 Because I believe a woman with a high body count is not capable...
00:43:25.000 Of loving you and respecting you and appreciating you as much as a woman with a low body count.
00:43:33.000 And as we know, love and respect and appreciation goes both ways.
00:43:37.000 If a woman really loves, respects and appreciates you, you can really love, respect and appreciate her back.
00:43:43.000 Because that's what we look for in women.
00:43:45.000 Love, appreciation and respect.
00:43:47.000 Now when I say women with high body counts aren't capable, I really do mean it.
00:43:53.000 So I'm going to give you an analogy that I made up because I made it up two days ago and I'm sure you've never heard before.
00:43:58.000 I'm going to talk to you about a friend of mine.
00:44:00.000 His name is Alex. He's my personal trainer and my physiotherapist.
00:44:04.000 Alex doesn't drink.
00:44:06.000 Almost never. He's got six pack abs.
00:44:08.000 He walks around looking good all the time.
00:44:11.000 Doesn't like alcohol. Doesn't drink alcohol.
00:44:13.000 Knows alcohol is bad for his health.
00:44:16.000 The other night I was celebrating a very big business milestone that myself and my brother had passed.
00:44:24.000 And without saying anything, Alex was sitting there with us, slamming shots of tequila all night.
00:44:29.000 And I thought, you know what?
00:44:31.000 Alex is proud of me.
00:44:34.000 And Alex appreciates my friendship.
00:44:36.000 And he is really genuinely happy for my success.
00:44:40.000 The fact that this guy, who doesn't drink, is sitting here drinking vodka shots...
00:44:45.000 With me and my scumbag friends means a lot to me.
00:44:49.000 It's special. He's doing something he doesn't normally do to show his appreciation for me.
00:44:54.000 That's a good friend. Now let's imagine there's another guy who gets drunk every day by himself We'll drink a bottle of vodka.
00:45:05.000 If anyone in any bar and any pub offers him a drink, he'll take it and sit there and drink with him.
00:45:10.000 A homeless dude, for example.
00:45:12.000 And I somehow convince this homeless guy to come and celebrate my business milestone.
00:45:17.000 And he's sitting there slamming my tequila.
00:45:19.000 Why is that less meaningful?
00:45:22.000 I know he doesn't appreciate me, respect me, care about me as much as a real friend.
00:45:27.000 Because this guy will drink with anybody!
00:45:30.000 Do you see where I'm going here?
00:45:33.000 I hope you do. If a woman has had one serious boyfriend in her life, say she's 21 years of age, and has a body count of one, which I think is very low, and you were to meet her at 21, if you charm her, whine and dine her, seduce her, Make her really feel something for you.
00:45:54.000 There's a good chance she'll be your girlfriend.
00:45:57.000 She'll have sex with you.
00:45:58.000 And you may well end up getting married and burying children and all the beautiful things that come with male-female relationships.
00:46:06.000 However, if you meet a girl who's 21 who has a body count of 300, sure she'll fuck you.
00:46:12.000 But that sex doesn't mean she cares about you.
00:46:15.000 It doesn't mean she appreciates you.
00:46:17.000 It doesn't mean she respects you.
00:46:19.000 In fact, it's meaningless.
00:46:22.000 Because it's not you that makes her do it.
00:46:26.000 It's the sex.
00:46:27.000 Just like it's the drink that will make the homeless man accept my invite.
00:46:30.000 Not my achievements.
00:46:32.000 So be very careful of women with very high body counts.
00:46:35.000 Be very careful of women who say that it doesn't matter.
00:46:37.000 Because I feel like They can't appreciate and love and respect a man in the same way that a woman with a low body count can.
00:46:46.000 So, I have met loads of women with high body counts.
00:46:50.000 And I've slept with plenty of them.
00:46:52.000 I'm not going to pretend I haven't.
00:46:53.000 And so have many of you watching at home.
00:46:56.000 But to all the women out there who do have high body counts, let me tell you something.
00:47:00.000 Before you start saying, Tristan Tate, oh he's just a fuckboy, or this guy's just a fuckboy, or this guy, he just uses women.
00:47:07.000 You allowed yourself to be used by every single person in your hometown.
00:47:13.000 Nobody is going to treat you, even the man who wants a family and wants a serious relationship and wants love and wants the real deal.
00:47:21.000 He's not going to treat you the same way because of the way you've treated yourself.
00:47:25.000 It's nothing to do with how men are behaving towards you.
00:47:28.000 It's how you've behaved towards yourself.
00:47:30.000 So yeah, it really does matter.
00:47:32.000 And when that love and respect and appreciation isn't sent my way, I won't send it back.
00:47:36.000 I'll call them a taxi in the morning.
00:47:38.000 I'll be polite. I'll give them a kiss on the cheek.
00:47:39.000 But that's it. So body count really does matter.
00:47:43.000 And that's an interesting analogy, I think.
00:47:45.000 And it's something that I made up. So feel free to, you know, take that home.
00:47:49.000 Tell everyone about it.
00:47:50.000 Walk around. Repeat it.
00:47:51.000 Make sure you credit me, though. Because I'm a genius, of course.
00:47:56.000 Now we're going to get tricky.
00:47:58.000 Anonymous question on Getter.
00:48:02.000 Hi, Tristan. What are your views on abortion?
00:48:05.000 And the room goes silent.
00:48:09.000 Ah, this is another Black Mermaid, isn't it?
00:48:14.000 Watch, my phone's going to start blowing up from people watching live saying, ooh, don't talk about abortion.
00:48:20.000 Well, you know what? I am going to talk about abortion.
00:48:22.000 Because the reason this person is asking the question, previously in the question, they say, I've noticed when you and Andrew talk about the degeneracy of the West and how cultures are degenerating, you talk about women who have lots of abortions.
00:48:33.000 So they're wondering if I am pro or anti-abortion.
00:48:37.000 And I think I'm going to upset both camps right now.
00:48:41.000 Which is unique.
00:48:43.000 Because a lot of people on the internet would try to give an answer that makes both camps happy.
00:48:49.000 I am going to give my unique perspective.
00:48:51.000 And I like to think that the way that my mind works is slightly different from most people's.
00:48:55.000 So my perspective is quite different from most people's.
00:48:58.000 So I'm going to give an answer that perhaps you haven't heard.
00:49:01.000 And an argument that perhaps you haven't heard.
00:49:03.000 An argument that's going to offend the pro-choice camp.
00:49:06.000 And an argument that's going to offend the pro-life camp.
00:49:09.000 And I'll start by saying that from a legal standpoint, in terms of the laws of a country, I believe abortion should be legal.
00:49:26.000 This comes with a huge series of buts.
00:49:31.000 So listen up.
00:49:33.000 I understand that women in prison, maybe it's in their, the child's, maybe not the child's, their and society's interests to make abortions available to women in prison.
00:49:48.000 If you're a homeless woman addicted to heroin, I believe it may be in the woman's interest and society's interest to allow women like that to have abortions.
00:49:58.000 So I do think it should be legal because I do think there are some some cases obviously rape, incest, all the normal stuff where for society and for the woman the option should exist.
00:50:18.000 Now To attack the pro-choice camp, which is the camp that I really can't stand.
00:50:28.000 Because I don't understand why people pretend that abortion is something that it's not.
00:50:35.000 This is what makes me sick about the pro-choice camp.
00:50:38.000 I've just said that I don't think it should be illegal.
00:50:41.000 I believe there are some cases where it's justifiable, even.
00:50:47.000 But the way the pro-choice camp talk You animals is as though it's no big deal.
00:50:56.000 It's a big fucking deal.
00:50:58.000 What I won't hear and what I don't like listening to is people saying it's not murder.
00:51:05.000 People saying it's just a clump of cells.
00:51:08.000 People saying until it can exist on its own, it's part of the mother.
00:51:12.000 People who saying, oh, I've had loads of abortions, it's fine.
00:51:16.000 People making... Jokes about abortion I don't find funny.
00:51:20.000 It is the murder of a human being.
00:51:23.000 I don't care if you think it's a part of the mother.
00:51:25.000 I don't care if it can survive on its own.
00:51:26.000 There are full-grown adults who can't survive on their own.
00:51:29.000 I am just as much a clump of cells as a newly conceived fetus.
00:51:35.000 The fact that The fetus's DNA code is unique.
00:51:40.000 It means that it is a unique person, for one.
00:51:44.000 There are people born with no arms and no legs who are just as much a human being as me or you.
00:51:50.000 So to look at the stages of development of this unique DNA code and say, oh, it doesn't matter because it hasn't developed this or it hasn't developed that, is actually sickening.
00:52:00.000 I don't understand why people can't have a normal attitude towards abortion.
00:52:05.000 It's either, it should be illegal in all cases, even if she's a nine-year-old and her uncle raped her.
00:52:10.000 Or, oh, it's completely fine and it's completely harmless to society and abortion should be readily available on every high street.
00:52:17.000 I don't understand why it's so polarized.
00:52:19.000 Why can't people say it should be legal because some people need it, but it is absolutely disgusting and it is murder and it is abhorrent.
00:52:30.000 Yeah, I just don't get it.
00:52:33.000 So the pro-choice people are going to be mad at me because I've called them all a bunch of animals because their arguments quite frankly disgust me and their behavior disgusts me.
00:52:41.000 And the fact that normal, healthy people with normal jobs, with functioning bodies and no drug habits will go out and get abortions makes me want to throw up.
00:52:52.000 They'll be mad at me. And the pro-choice people will be mad at me.
00:52:55.000 So the pro-life people will be mad at me because I said that there are some cases where it should be.
00:52:59.000 Okay, so my perspective is kind of unique.
00:53:02.000 But it was a personal and I think interesting question with an interesting answer.
00:53:06.000 So I thought I'd give it. To reiterate, I don't see any universe where somebody like me, who chooses willingly to have sex with a woman, and she falls pregnant, should have the option to abort the baby.
00:53:23.000 Now, legally, can the option exist?
00:53:24.000 Sure. The legal option can exist within the country I live in.
00:53:27.000 I have no problem with that. But why can't I be my own moral arbitrator?
00:53:32.000 Because no woman who gets pregnant with me is going to have an abortion.
00:53:35.000 I assure you that is not going to happen.
00:53:39.000 I'm a young, healthy, smart, intelligent millionaire.
00:53:42.000 My kid could become the next president of the United States for all I know.
00:53:45.000 You're not aborting that to pursue some career or because you don't like the way it will make your body look.
00:53:51.000 That is disgusting.
00:53:53.000 So those are my personal views on abortion.
00:53:55.000 To summarize, I'm against it for myself.
00:53:58.000 Me and healthy, able-bodied people should be the moral compass for themselves and be against it themselves.
00:54:04.000 And I think if everybody thought that way, you'd have a lot fewer abortions.
00:54:07.000 And also, people should just make smarter, more informed choices with who they have sex with.
00:54:13.000 Because I've heard this, Tristan, what if you get some crackhead pregnant?
00:54:16.000 I wouldn't have sex with a crackhead.
00:54:19.000 So what universe is that going to happen?
00:54:21.000 Absolutely stupid argument.
00:54:23.000 Charbel 911 How can I deal with negative people and change them to become more positive?
00:54:39.000 Interesting question. I would say...
00:54:43.000 Unless you owe a moral duty to that person...
00:54:50.000 By which I mean unless that person is your mother or your father or somebody who has helped you or somebody who has coached you or somebody who has taught you...
00:55:00.000 Don't go around trying to fix broken people.
00:55:03.000 A mentor of mine has a saying, I don't fix broken birds.
00:55:07.000 And what he means by that is, if you don't succeed, the bird's going to die in your hands anyway.
00:55:13.000 And if you do, it's just going to fly away.
00:55:15.000 Broken people are broken people for a reason.
00:55:17.000 I understand certain levels of effort if you owe them, if you have a sense of moral obligation towards them.
00:55:25.000 But if you don't, then honestly don't waste your time trying to fix broken people.
00:55:29.000 There's no hope for a lot of people in the world.
00:55:32.000 And a lot of people in the world are never going to make it and they're never going to escape the mindset that keeps them in the matrix.
00:55:39.000 I'd network with better people.
00:55:41.000 Obviously, things like The Real World exist.
00:55:43.000 Organizations such as The War Room exist.
00:55:45.000 There should be links to that on cobertake.com.
00:55:47.000 You know, check those out. There are networks of people out there who are winners, who will be positive, who will strive to do better and inspire you to do better at exactly the same time.
00:55:57.000 And that's it. Cut off the negative people.
00:56:04.000 Team alone. I'm reading this one out because this idea has already been suggested.
00:56:08.000 And I'm going to talk a little bit about the app I'm developing.
00:56:11.000 Hi Tristan, your new app idea should be called Checkmate.
00:56:14.000 I understand. So that name has been suggested already before.
00:56:17.000 The name is of course taken.
00:56:18.000 But I am developing an app.
00:56:20.000 I'm developing an app that is going to...
00:56:24.000 It's not a catfishing prevention app.
00:56:27.000 It is not a judgmental app to judge people's looks.
00:56:31.000 What it is, is a photo accuracy rating app.
00:56:37.000 Where people you've interacted with in real life, you'll be able to rate how accurate their photos are.
00:56:44.000 How accurate their body is to the body in their photos.
00:56:47.000 How accurate their face is to the face in their photos.
00:56:48.000 How accurate their age is to the age they look in photos.
00:56:52.000 See, I think that's a very interesting app.
00:56:54.000 How accurate their height is to how tall they say they are or look in photos.
00:56:58.000 Of course an app like this can be used to prevent catfishing.
00:57:02.000 Because I believe catfishing to be one of the...
00:57:05.000 Biggest red flags in the world because it is initially putting your foot in the door and going into a relationship or going on a date with dishonest first relationships.
00:57:18.000 Intentions. If a woman is 10 out of 10 on a dating app, and she shows up and she's an 8 out of 10, she may well still be pretty.
00:57:27.000 But she has intentionally tried to deceive you from the first step.
00:57:31.000 If a man on his Instagram profile looks like he has a wonderful, fun lifestyle, he's standing next to Lamborghinis and Rolls Royces, and he turns up and picks you up in a Toyota Corolla because that's all he has.
00:57:41.000 He's intentionally trying to deceive you And I don't think that is a good premise to start anything serious from.
00:57:49.000 So yes, the new app I'm developing, Checkmate, is a name that has been suggested to me already, as well as a bunch of other names.
00:57:58.000 But I will be developing an app that rates photo accuracy.
00:58:01.000 And you'll be able to see the most accurate photos, who looks most like their pictures, the least accurate photos.
00:58:07.000 You may want to call them the biggest catfish if you like.
00:58:09.000 But it's not a catfishing app or an anti-catfish app because that would mean it would be taken down somehow.
00:58:15.000 It's an app to reward those who take accurate pictures.
00:58:19.000 So this is coming up to the end of the hour.
00:58:25.000 I want to read a little statement about self-analysis.
00:58:33.000 Because if there's one thing me and my brother teach And we like to preach is accountability.
00:58:40.000 Now accountability of oneself comes from the analysis of oneself and one's own actions.
00:58:46.000 I think that is the reason.
00:58:54.000 Why my brother and I have drawn such a large audience.
00:58:56.000 Why 1.5 million people will eventually watch this video of me just sitting down, talking, smoking a cigar by myself.
00:59:01.000 No clever idea, no clever gimmicks.
00:59:04.000 Because I believe people actually listen to our content and make positive changes to themselves.
00:59:11.000 So, everything I've talked about, you know, Over the last few months and years, getting in shape, going out there and making money, being smarter, being more intelligent, dealing with people better, handling your relationships better, isn't something that you can learn from me.
00:59:28.000 It's simply me telling you to work on yourself in certain ways.
00:59:32.000 And so many millions of people have written me and my brother and told us about the positive impacts that we've had on our lives.
00:59:40.000 And we really appreciate that.
00:59:42.000 So this is a statement that my brother has sent me.
00:59:45.000 That he'd like me to read out to end this Cigar Meeting Live.
00:59:50.000 Millions of people never analyze themselves.
00:59:53.000 Mentally, they are mechanical products of the factory of their environment, preoccupied with breakfast, lunch and dinner, working and sleeping, and going here and there to be entertained.
01:00:07.000 They don't know what or why they are seeking.
01:00:12.000 Nor why they never realize complete happiness and lasting satisfaction.
01:00:16.000 By evading self-analysis, people go on being robots.
01:00:22.000 Conditioned by their environment, true self-analysis is the greatest art of progress.
01:00:29.000 I'm going to leave you guys with that thought.
01:00:31.000 I'm going to finish my cigar downstairs with my friends and probably have a few drinks.
