The Joe Rogan Experience - Joe Rogan Experience #1752 - Tim Dillon

00:00:13.000 I don't know if I'm gonna buy Rolls Royce, but I do like them.

00:00:17.000 What about a Cadillac?

00:00:18.000 I think you're more of a Cadillac guy.

00:00:19.000 Well, that's a knock.

00:00:22.000 Right?

00:00:23.000 No, they're great.

00:00:24.000 That's kind of a knock.

00:00:25.000 No, they're great cars.

00:00:26.000 It's a Long Island...

00:00:27.000 Aren't you? 1.00

00:00:29.000 Yeah, it's a car for a Long Island guy who's a little full of shit. 1.00

00:00:32.000 From Long Island? 1.00

00:00:33.000 Yeah.

00:00:34.000 I can see myself in Escalade.

00:00:35.000 They're great.

00:00:36.000 They're amazing.

00:00:37.000 There's a lot of guys who want to be Tony Soprano.

00:00:40.000 Yeah.

00:00:40.000 Who aren't Tony Soprano, who like the Sopranos, who drive Escalades.

00:00:45.000 That is an issue.

00:00:46.000 Oh, yeah.

00:00:47.000 Yeah.

00:00:47.000 It's like pinky rings.

00:00:49.000 You really can't wear a pinky ring.

00:00:51.000 It's a car where when you're driving in it, you're in a movie that no one's watching except you and you're starring in it.

00:00:57.000 If you've got that Soprano song, Woke Up This Morning.

00:01:00.000 Yeah.

00:01:01.000 Well, you like only pretty much fast cars.

00:01:03.000 No, I like all kinds of cars.

00:01:04.000 Okay.

00:01:05.000 Yeah.

00:01:05.000 You're not like a luxury sedan guy.

00:01:08.000 I've had them.

00:01:09.000 Yeah?

00:01:09.000 Yeah, I've had them before.

00:01:10.000 What was the best one?

00:01:11.000 I had a BMW 7 Series.

00:01:13.000 They're great.

00:01:13.000 It was amazing.

00:01:14.000 I love them, yeah.

00:01:14.000 It was really comfortable.

00:01:15.000 Yeah, those are great.

00:01:16.000 It's just like you feel like you're insulated from the world.

00:01:20.000 Yeah, I feel like those cars I love, but I also feel like a dentist.

00:01:25.000 Because my dentist had it, like in Long Island, dentists have BMW 7 Series or Mercedes S500s.

00:01:34.000 That's like the car for like your doctor.

00:01:36.000 That's a nice car too.

00:01:37.000 The Benz S-Class?

00:01:38.000 Yeah.

00:01:39.000 Very nice car.

00:01:39.000 Those are nice.

00:01:40.000 Yeah, those are nice.

00:01:41.000 I got the Tesla, the new Plaid.

00:01:44.000 The fast one.

00:01:45.000 It's preposterous.

00:01:46.000 It's insane. 1.00

00:01:47.000 But the steering wheel's dumb. 1.00

00:01:49.000 It's a yoke. 1.00

00:01:50.000 I'm not a fan of the steering wheel.

00:01:51.000 You gotta talk to your boy.

00:01:53.000 I don't know what to tell him.

00:01:54.000 He's dead set on the yoke.

00:01:56.000 What is the yoke?

00:01:57.000 It's like a Formula One car.

00:02:00.000 It's got a handle on here and a handle on here.

00:02:02.000 Not only that, the horn is not this anymore.

00:02:06.000 It's not hit the center.

00:02:07.000 It's a button that you have to awkwardly move your thumb to get to, to hit, and you have to know that's the steering wheel.

00:02:14.000 See what the horn is?

00:02:14.000 See the little horn icon?

00:02:16.000 Fuck that thing. 1.00

00:02:17.000 I'm not a fan of that. 1.00

00:02:19.000 When I grab the top, my thumb, if extended, does go where the horn is, like, perfectly.

00:02:25.000 But I want to hit the center.

00:02:26.000 That's where the horn is.

00:02:28.000 The horn's the center.

00:02:29.000 Yeah.

00:02:29.000 Old habits die hard.

00:02:31.000 And the blinkers.

00:02:32.000 You see the blinkers?

00:02:33.000 They're on the left-hand side.

00:02:34.000 That's left and right.

00:02:34.000 So you have to look.

00:02:36.000 Instead of, like, the little stick, I like the stick.

00:02:39.000 The left, right, left, right.

00:02:41.000 It's easy.

00:02:41.000 My problem with Tesla is my producer is a Tesla, and people that have Teslas, Think they've done well, but what is it?

00:02:49.000 It's like a $35,000 car, right?

00:02:51.000 It's a cheap car.

00:02:53.000 Depends on which one you get.

00:02:54.000 Right.

00:02:54.000 That one is, the S is, how much does that cost?

00:02:59.000 It's well over $100,000.

00:03:01.000 Right.

00:03:01.000 But I think the beginners, you can get them for like $38,000.

00:03:05.000 You can get the three.

00:03:06.000 Yeah.

00:03:07.000 It's a great car, though.

00:03:08.000 Sure. 0.95

00:03:09.000 If you want a car that's reliable, fast as fuck, great battery life, easy to drive. 0.98

00:03:15.000 But it's too much of a cult. 0.99

00:03:17.000 Everybody who's in it talks about it.

00:03:20.000 That's me.

00:03:21.000 I've known that cult.

00:03:22.000 You know the guy, right?

00:03:23.000 But there's people out there that are talking about Starlink satellites and SpaceX. 0.96

00:03:28.000 And it's like, guys, shut up.

00:03:30.000 You know, they feel like they're part of this revolutionary force, but you just bought a car. 0.95

00:03:36.000 It's like how Apple was in the 90s.

00:03:38.000 That's right.

00:03:38.000 Yeah.

00:03:39.000 People just get too involved.

00:03:40.000 People would talk about it and they would say, we've got a new operating system coming out.

00:03:44.000 I'm like, we.

00:03:45.000 Right.

00:03:45.000 Yeah.

00:03:46.000 Who's we?

00:03:47.000 We.

00:03:47.000 Yeah.

00:03:47.000 Who's we?

00:03:48.000 Interesting.

00:03:49.000 Yeah.

00:03:49.000 No, it's too...

00:03:50.000 My producer, when he got it, Ben, when he got it, would just talk endlessly about it and everything that it did and how cool it was.

00:03:58.000 It's amazing.

00:03:58.000 That's the problem.

00:03:59.000 The problem it is, it is a fucking amazing car. 0.99

00:04:02.000 The car is... 0.99

00:04:03.000 You've been in my other one?

00:04:04.000 Yeah.

00:04:05.000 Remember how fast that was?

00:04:06.000 It's very fast.

00:04:06.000 Of Gary Rodgers and the Improv?

00:04:07.000 It's very fast.

00:04:08.000 This one's twice as fast.

00:04:09.000 That's crazy.

00:04:10.000 It's insanity.

00:04:11.000 Yeah.

00:04:11.000 Zero to 60 in 1.9 seconds for a full-size four-door sedan.

00:04:16.000 That's crazy.

00:04:17.000 Yeah, it's nuts.

00:04:17.000 What's the top speed?

00:04:19.000 175 miles an hour or something crazy.

00:04:21.000 I think it's limited.

00:04:22.000 Did they govern it or something?

00:04:25.000 Yeah.

00:04:27.000 Probably does. 0.98

00:04:28.000 I mean, it's fucking insane. 0.98

00:04:30.000 It's like a thousand horsepower. 0.98

00:04:31.000 Yeah.

00:04:31.000 It's got three engines.

00:04:32.000 Do you worry about other people having, like, a car that's that fast?

00:04:37.000 Yeah, you should.

00:04:38.000 Yeah.

00:04:38.000 You should.

00:04:39.000 It's like, well, I worry about that with everything. 0.99

00:04:41.000 With Corvettes, with, you know, you could just go to a store and buy a fucking race car. 0.99

00:04:46.000 Yeah. 0.98

00:04:46.000 Buy a car that would outperform most GT3 cars from, you know, 20 years ago. 0.98

00:04:53.000 Most cars that people raced.

00:04:54.000 Okay.

00:04:55.000 167 miles an hour.

00:04:57.000 Which is, uh, that's the fastest, I guess, it goes.

00:05:01.000 Um, okay.

00:05:04.000 Well, the ability to merge is the most incredible thing.

00:05:09.000 Like if you hit an on-ramp and you have an opening, it's just...

00:05:12.000 It just goes.

00:05:15.000 Because you can just...

00:05:16.000 Right.

00:05:16.000 It just goes.

00:05:17.000 Hit.

00:05:17.000 Right.

00:05:18.000 But it's not hard to drive slow.

00:05:20.000 It's not like it's uncomfortable.

00:05:22.000 Some fast cars, they're like herky-jerky.

00:05:25.000 It's not like that at all.

00:05:25.000 It's very smooth.

00:05:26.000 Do you think the EV market is just the future in terms of what we're going to see?

00:05:35.000 Battery material?

00:05:36.000 That's my question.

00:05:37.000 Well, we'll start a few wars. 0.67

00:05:38.000 I mean, what do they need?

00:05:39.000 Lithium ion?

00:05:40.000 We can go back in Afghanistan. 0.98

00:05:42.000 I think they're going to war with Nevada right now, because they're pulling it out of Nevada.

00:05:45.000 Well, they're going to South America, too.

00:05:47.000 There's a lot of different, you know...

00:05:50.000 Yeah, minerals down there, sure.

00:05:52.000 Where do they get most of their lithium?

00:05:54.000 I think they are doing it in Nevada now.

00:05:56.000 I did read something about Nevada being a hotbed for lithium.

00:06:00.000 Yeah.

00:06:01.000 Well, that's the thing now.

00:06:02.000 All these new tech companies are very progressive and they have all these electric cars, but...

00:06:08.000 They're mining these minerals that they need for their products in a lot of different places, and I'm sure they're not always doing this on the up and up.

00:06:20.000 No.

00:06:20.000 Well, we went over this the other day about Africa and coltan, and that at the heart of every cell phone is this mineral called coltan, and where they get coltan is like people are literally digging it out of the ground in the Congo.

00:06:34.000 Right. 0.99

00:06:35.000 And they're working in horrific conditions, and it's fucking horrible, dirty work. 0.99

00:06:41.000 What is this? 1.00

00:06:42.000 Australia.

00:06:42.000 The biggest mine is in Australia, but the biggest company is an American company in Chile, Australia, in the U.S. Interesting.

00:06:50.000 Big market cap.

00:06:52.000 Well, it's funny that they get it out of Australia.

00:06:54.000 I don't feel bad about it at all.

00:06:55.000 If they take it from Australia, that's fine.

00:06:58.000 Yeah, that's who cares.

00:06:59.000 That's fine.

00:07:01.000 Take their minerals.

00:07:02.000 They've lost their mind. 0.91

00:07:03.000 They've gone insane. 1.00

00:07:04.000 No one's lost their mind better than Australia.

00:07:05.000 And it's a great sign that everyone needs guns.

00:07:07.000 Well, it was shocking that...

00:07:11.000 It was that country.

00:07:12.000 Because I always thought that country was like a party.

00:07:15.000 Everybody was just having fun.

00:07:19.000 But it is a penal colony.

00:07:22.000 And a lot of the people there...

00:07:26.000 You know, are the descendants of criminals.

00:07:29.000 And from knowing people that live in Australia, they don't love work, which is okay, right? 0.93

00:07:36.000 Like their culture is not about working.

00:07:38.000 So if somebody says, hey, sit in your yard and get hammered for a year.

00:07:44.000 They don't ask too many questions.

00:07:45.000 They go, let's do it.

00:07:46.000 But then it gets increasingly more and more draconian and crazy and they're doing face scans and they're checking your cup.

00:07:56.000 Did you really go for coffee?

00:07:58.000 Let me see if you have coffee in your cup.

00:08:00.000 But it's crazy.

00:08:02.000 I saw that video.

00:08:03.000 That was crazy.

00:08:04.000 Checking that lady. 0.99

00:08:05.000 Is it a gut lady? 1.00

00:08:05.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:08:06.000 Do you have coffee in your cup?

00:08:08.000 To make sure she can have her mask down to be drinking. 0.89

00:08:10.000 Yeah.

00:08:11.000 It's insane.

00:08:12.000 But this is after 9-11. 0.92

00:08:15.000 You get patted down, you'll get molested.

00:08:18.000 The TSA will molest you at an airport for no reason.

00:08:23.000 They're molesting an 85-year-old grandmother from Kentucky.

00:08:27.000 In case she's a terrorist. 0.97

00:08:28.000 In case she has a bomb hidden.

00:08:30.000 So this is a problem, right?

00:08:33.000 I mean, unless people restore...

00:08:35.000 Hopefully this variant...

00:08:37.000 Sweeps, it's mild, everybody's got natural immunity, and we move on.

00:08:41.000 I don't think that's gonna happen.

00:08:42.000 Yeah, maybe not.

00:08:43.000 The reality of human beings is once you give people power, they don't give it back.

00:08:47.000 Yeah. 0.98

00:08:48.000 And that's what's going on now with fucking Lori Lightfoot in Chicago. 1.00

00:08:51.000 Yeah. 0.98

00:08:51.000 Says she's gonna make it inconvenient for everybody who doesn't have a vaccine. 0.98

00:08:55.000 Yeah.

00:08:55.000 But the bottom line is the vaccine doesn't work on this variant.

00:08:58.000 They're saying it's a vaccine escape variant.

00:09:02.000 So does it keep you out of the hospital?

00:09:05.000 What keeps you out of the hospital?

00:09:06.000 Being healthy.

00:09:08.000 Supposedly...

00:09:09.000 The idea that the only thing that keeps you out of the hospital is medicine.

00:09:12.000 Well, no, I don't think it's the only thing, but I get my news from Donald Trump, who told Candace Owens that the vaccine is a miracle, and it worked.

00:09:21.000 Well, because he came up with it.

00:09:22.000 Yeah, but a lot of people are saying that if you...

00:09:25.000 Not really him, obviously.

00:09:26.000 You're prevented from death, which, by the way, is the last...

00:09:32.000 I mean, it started with, you won't get it, and then it was, you might get it, but you won't get sick.

00:09:36.000 Then it was, well, you'll get sick.

00:09:38.000 Now it's, you won't die.

00:09:39.000 Have you seen the breakdown?

00:09:41.000 It's an American product.

00:09:41.000 It is American product.

00:09:42.000 It's an American product.

00:09:44.000 Truly, it's an American product.

00:09:45.000 By the end of it, it's like, hey, you might not die, which is many of our products.

00:09:51.000 But you might.

00:09:51.000 Sure, you could.

00:09:52.000 But less people will die.

00:09:53.000 Yeah.

00:09:54.000 Allegedly.

00:09:55.000 I don't think we really know...

00:09:57.000 I think we're going to find out, I think, years from now, what this whole thing was.

00:10:03.000 Well, for sure, there's a lot of money involved. 0.94

00:10:07.000 And whenever there's a lot of money involved, then there's fuckery. 1.00

00:10:09.000 Yes. 0.99

00:10:10.000 And there's for sure fuckery involved. 1.00

00:10:12.000 Sure.

00:10:12.000 And have you ever seen the compilation of what Fauci said at the beginning of the vaccine distribution versus now?

00:10:19.000 No.

00:10:19.000 You've never seen that video?

00:10:20.000 I'm sure it's...

00:10:21.000 Well, because I remember it, though, because I remember that the idea was that you wouldn't contract it.

00:10:26.000 Yeah, you're not going to get the virus.

00:10:28.000 And that the breakthrough cases would be rare.

00:10:30.000 Very rare.

00:10:31.000 Extremely rare.

00:10:32.000 We all got it early.

00:10:33.000 Everyone that I know got it early because we believed it was like putting a wristband on and you could go into Six Flags.

00:10:41.000 Basically, it was like, oh, I have it.

00:10:43.000 Let's go.

00:10:45.000 Party's on.

00:10:46.000 But now it's not even you need a booster.

00:10:48.000 Now it is the booster.

00:10:50.000 California, all the state workers now have to have a booster.

00:10:53.000 And that's the third.

00:10:55.000 That's the third.

00:10:55.000 And Israel's on the fourth.

00:10:56.000 Yes, they're on the fourth.

00:10:58.000 There's no science about this, by the way.

00:11:00.000 Yeah.

00:11:00.000 There's no data on whether or not the fourth helps you.

00:11:02.000 There's also no data.

00:11:04.000 What does it do?

00:11:05.000 It refreshes their...

00:11:06.000 The claim is that it refreshes the antibodies.

00:11:09.000 Gives you a little extra boost.

00:11:11.000 Gives you a boost.

00:11:12.000 It's a boost.

00:11:12.000 It's a little boost.

00:11:12.000 I think the term booster should go.

00:11:14.000 It's a bump.

00:11:15.000 It's a bump of cocaine.

00:11:15.000 I think saying, giving someone a boost, there should be more of a medical way.

00:11:20.000 To describe it.

00:11:21.000 Listen, they are saying that the vast majority of people that are dying are unvaccinated.

00:11:27.000 That seems to be...

00:11:28.000 That's not true.

00:11:29.000 That's what they're saying.

00:11:31.000 Yeah, I don't think that's true anymore.

00:11:32.000 I think...

00:11:34.000 It may be that death is very rare...

00:11:37.000 No matter what?

00:11:37.000 It depends on what you read.

00:11:39.000 Below a certain age.

00:11:39.000 When I'm saying that's not true.

00:11:40.000 I'm reading a bunch of different stories on people being vaccinated, unvaccinated.

00:11:45.000 Here's a real problem with a lack of treatment.

00:11:47.000 That's a real problem.

00:11:48.000 There's also a real problem in that when you get checked in.

00:11:51.000 But when you get checked into a hospital, if you already checked in, they no longer will give you monoclonal antibodies.

00:11:57.000 You literally have to get monoclonal antibodies in the emergency room.

00:12:01.000 If you get checked into the hospital, then there's no monitoring.

00:12:04.000 And you're already too sick.

00:12:05.000 Which doesn't make any sense.

00:12:06.000 It literally makes no sense.

00:12:08.000 Right.

00:12:08.000 I was listening to Peter McCullough, and I don't know if this diminishes his credibility, I bought crack off him in downtown Austin three days ago.

00:12:15.000 He's got good crack.

00:12:15.000 Yeah, but other than that, He was saying that you need to get on an early treatment regimen.

00:12:22.000 I think we're having these weird conversations that are kind of in a box because so many people don't have healthcare.

00:12:28.000 They're afraid to go to the emergency room.

00:12:30.000 They're afraid to go to a doctor.

00:12:32.000 They don't have the money.

00:12:33.000 They can't take off work.

00:12:34.000 So the idea that having this for-profit healthcare system where everybody's trying to make money seems to be a real...

00:12:42.000 Impetus to getting people early treatment because most people can't get early treatment because they're terrified of spending the money.

00:12:52.000 They don't know what they're going to get hit in the mail for.

00:12:55.000 That's true.

00:12:56.000 So it seems to be like, I think everything he was saying about getting on early stuff makes sense if you have healthcare.

00:13:04.000 Well, even if you don't have healthcare, the thing about Ivermectin is that it's very inexpensive.

00:13:09.000 Whether or not it actually works as the people that are proponents of it, I think it does, remains to be seen.

00:13:16.000 Did you give it out for Halloween?

00:13:17.000 I gave it to everybody.

00:13:18.000 Okay, because I heard that you were giving it out for Halloween at the house.

00:13:20.000 I got a room full of it in my house.

00:13:21.000 I heard you were just giving it out to people.

00:13:23.000 I opened it, it sounds like angel voices.

00:13:25.000 I feel like you have a DuckTales vat of Ivermectin that you swim in every day.

00:13:31.000 Just like, you know, remember DuckTales had the coins?

00:13:34.000 It's just you and Ivermectin just doing backstroke in Ivermectin.

00:13:39.000 I never thought that that was going to be a big deal.

00:13:40.000 I really didn't.

00:13:41.000 Yeah.

00:13:42.000 When I was bringing that up, I was bringing it up because it was a thing that was on a laundry list of stuff I took.

00:13:47.000 It was one of the things.

00:13:48.000 It's forever associated.

00:13:49.000 Connected to me.

00:13:51.000 Isn't it funny that like a year ago, if they said you're going to be in this crazy controversy about a drug, you'd be like, what are you talking about?

00:13:59.000 Why would I do that?

00:14:00.000 That doesn't even make any sense.

00:14:01.000 Right.

00:14:01.000 Yeah.

00:14:02.000 One of the things that's been very strange about this is watching how people get very...

00:14:09.000 There are certain things in society where people's quote-unquote lived experience is the most important thing.

00:14:17.000 If you identify as a different gender, whatever.

00:14:21.000 If you are mentally unwell and say, I can't perform certain duties, you go, I respect that. 1.00

00:14:28.000 But if you say, I took Ivermectin and I felt better, people turn around and go, shut up! 0.99

00:14:33.000 It's weird. 0.96

00:14:35.000 That's weird.

00:14:35.000 Well, they got tricked.

00:14:36.000 They got tricked into doing this by the media.

00:14:39.000 And the media over and over and over again said disproven, conspiracy theory, horse dewormer.

00:14:45.000 They said all these things.

00:14:46.000 But what they ignored is how effective it's been in other countries.

00:14:50.000 Right.

00:14:50.000 But Japan, which is not an alt-right...

00:14:52.000 No.

00:14:53.000 Reddit thread.

00:14:55.000 It's Japan.

00:14:57.000 They were like, we're authorizing the use of ivermectin.

00:15:01.000 And they had a giant drop-off of COVID cases.

00:15:04.000 The same thing happened in parts of India.

00:15:06.000 You can get it in Texas.

00:15:07.000 Like when I had COVID, my doctor just wrote me a prescription for ivermectin.

00:15:12.000 Some doctors.

00:15:12.000 I know a doctor who's actually being brought in front of the medical board being subpoenaed because this doctor prescribed ivermectin to patients with COVID and they want to know why.

00:15:24.000 So this is actually like they're being brought in front of a fucking board about a drug that if you go to the critical care frontline COVID critical care group, people have done it for thousands of people.

00:15:38.000 There's all sorts of at least anecdotal tales of people getting better after ivermectin. 0.96

00:15:43.000 They do know that it stops viral replication in vitro, which means in a lab culture.

00:15:48.000 Yeah.

00:15:48.000 They do know that other countries have reported significant success.

00:15:52.000 They have these RCTs, these randomized controlled trials that they can list over and over and over again about ivermectin.

00:15:58.000 The problem is it's like the data is kind of sloppy.

00:16:02.000 Like some of it is they used it in prophylaxis, which means they use it as a preventative measure.

00:16:07.000 Some of it they used it in early care.

00:16:09.000 Some of it they used it deep into the sickness.

00:16:12.000 So it's like you We don't know.

00:16:14.000 And also, there's clearly some kind of a conspiracy to try to demonize that medication. 0.71

00:16:20.000 When you look at the amount of people that said, horse dewormer, horse dewormer, you look at the bullshit story that was in the Rolling Stone that was proven to be absolutely not real about people waiting in line at the hospital.

00:16:31.000 They couldn't get into the emergency room with gunshot wounds because so many people in there with horse dewormers. 0.91

00:16:36.000 Which is what?

00:16:37.000 Proven untrue.

00:16:38.000 Not just proven untrue, just a fabrication.

00:16:41.000 Well, it's a bad...

00:16:42.000 I think the idea that there's a vaccine that's available and people are being mandated to take it rubs people the wrong way.

00:16:52.000 Well, also because people are vaccinated and still getting sick and still spreading it.

00:16:56.000 And they're trying to pretend that's not the case.

00:16:57.000 I think that it's been a big problem watching the sales pitch Because to me it should be, the vaccine is available, if you take it, it should reduce your likelihood of getting sick.

00:17:11.000 That should not be, you shouldn't lose your job.

00:17:15.000 That's what I was saying.

00:17:16.000 I was like, it seems crazy to me.

00:17:19.000 To fire somebody and make them destitute, broke, homeless, right?

00:17:27.000 Because they will not take a vaccine.

00:17:30.000 Not only that, a lot of them are nurses. 0.99

00:17:32.000 And nurses have already got COVID. So they've had COVID. They recovered.

00:17:35.000 They have better antibodies.

00:17:37.000 Well, that's the thing.

00:17:37.000 A lot of people- Stronger antibodies.

00:17:39.000 There's people that aren't anti-vax per se, but they say, I have natural immunity.

00:17:42.000 So that never made sense to me.

00:17:45.000 The mandates never made sense.

00:17:46.000 I didn't get that.

00:17:47.000 Even the term vaccine is incorrect.

00:17:49.000 It's a gene therapy.

00:17:51.000 It's a different thing.

00:17:52.000 A vaccine is like smallpox.

00:17:54.000 You get it and then you never get smallpox or like measles.

00:17:58.000 You know, once you have the vaccine, you don't have to worry about it anymore.

00:18:01.000 That's for the vast majority of people.

00:18:04.000 Right.

00:18:04.000 That's what a vaccine is supposed to be.

00:18:06.000 This is something where you have to get three of them in a fucking year. 0.98

00:18:08.000 But this is like when I used to sell mortgages, you would get a mortgage and then two years later you would get a refinance. 0.98

00:18:13.000 So here's what you're not realizing.

00:18:15.000 If I'm Pfizer, I don't want to just be in your life for one transaction.

00:18:19.000 I'm your partner for life.

00:18:20.000 Right.

00:18:21.000 Forever.

00:18:21.000 So every couple of years, I'm going to call you up and say, Hi, Mr. Rogan.

00:18:24.000 How are you?

00:18:24.000 And we're going to do it again.

00:18:26.000 We're going to get a boost.

00:18:27.000 That's the American way we sell everything.

00:18:32.000 We're good to go.

00:18:48.000 There's only two now.

00:18:48.000 They're telling you not to take the Johnson& Johnson anymore.

00:18:51.000 Right, but that's weird.

00:18:51.000 When the CEOs of the vaccines are making fun of each other, that doesn't make you feel good.

00:18:57.000 I remember people got the Johnson& Johnson, and then we were an hour away from getting it.

00:19:01.000 They discontinued it.

00:19:02.000 Me and a bunch of people in LA. That didn't make you feel good.

00:19:06.000 No.

00:19:06.000 It shouldn't be, I think...

00:19:08.000 I mean, capitalism has some great things, but I wonder if we should...

00:19:11.000 The vaccine shouldn't be like...

00:19:14.000 One of these products where it's like, you know how Wendy's and Arby's fight on Twitter as a joke?

00:19:22.000 I don't think a life-saving vaccine should have that.

00:19:25.000 Like, I don't think Moderna and Pfizer should be fighting with each other.

00:19:30.000 But it doesn't make you feel good about it.

00:19:32.000 I don't think Moderna and Pfizer are fighting with each other, but different countries...

00:19:36.000 Well, they'll knock each other. 1.00

00:19:37.000 Like, the CEO, Jimmy can even look.

00:19:39.000 Yeah.

00:19:39.000 No, you could find that.

00:19:41.000 Pfizer has knocked Moderna, really?

00:19:43.000 The CEO, they made some comment.

00:19:45.000 We only killed 30,000 people.

00:19:46.000 They made some comment.

00:19:48.000 How many people do you think really died from the vaccine?

00:19:50.000 Do you think people are...

00:19:51.000 Because I know so many people...

00:19:52.000 100% people have died from the vaccine.

00:19:53.000 Well, for sure, right?

00:19:54.000 Yeah, but we don't know how many.

00:19:56.000 We do know that historically, the VAERS, which is the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, the VAERS reports have been under, like, whatever underreported means.

00:20:09.000 There was one article that Harvard put out a paper about, I think it was about the HPV vaccine.

00:20:17.000 Right.

00:20:18.000 And they were saying that VAERS underreported as significantly as 1%.

00:20:22.000 So it was like 99% unreported.

00:20:25.000 1% reported.

00:20:27.000 So out of 100 events, one of them would get reported.

00:20:30.000 Is there any chance people on VAERS are just having fun?

00:20:32.000 I don't think that's the case, but yes.

00:20:36.000 It's always a chance.

00:20:37.000 I would like to go on VAERS and just have a Yelp review.

00:20:41.000 Just for fun.

00:20:41.000 And just say the vaccine killed my whole family.

00:20:44.000 Right.

00:20:44.000 Just for fun.

00:20:46.000 Yeah.

00:20:46.000 But if I can do that, the question is, maybe other people, but maybe not.

00:20:51.000 I think you have to say the name of your doctor.

00:20:54.000 There's more that goes into it.

00:20:55.000 Peter McCullough was describing how difficult it is to file a VAERS claim and what has to be, you know, it's complicated. 0.99

00:21:03.000 And it's also, it comes with criminal penalties if it's your full shit. 0.99

00:21:07.000 It's for sure people have died. 1.00

00:21:09.000 The question is how many?

00:21:09.000 I think they're reporting now 18,000 deaths.

00:21:12.000 But what is that?

00:21:14.000 It's the VAERS. But you also have to think about the sheer numbers of people that have taken the vaccine.

00:21:21.000 If it's 18,000 deaths and you're dealing with 230 plus million people that have taken the vaccine, a lot of people are like, that's not that bad.

00:21:31.000 Yeah.

00:21:31.000 Unless it's your family, then it's horrible.

00:21:33.000 Unless it's someone that's close to you.

00:21:35.000 Unless it's your young child, which is some of the people who died.

00:21:39.000 Is it possible any of the people who died from the vaccine were racist?

00:21:42.000 Could be.

00:21:43.000 Could be.

00:21:44.000 I'm just trying to look at silver linings.

00:21:45.000 Yeah, you should.

00:21:46.000 You know?

00:21:46.000 You always should.

00:21:47.000 I mean, some of them might have said things that they shouldn't have said.

00:21:51.000 They might have lied about their taxes.

00:21:52.000 They might not have paid their fair share.

00:21:53.000 It's hard to know, right?

00:21:55.000 It's really difficult to know.

00:21:58.000 Because then there's people, and this is embarrassing, who are very anti-vax and die.

00:22:03.000 Like all these right-wing radio guys.

00:22:05.000 They're very anti-vax. 0.98

00:22:06.000 Those guys always die.

00:22:07.000 Isn't that interesting?

00:22:07.000 And they call it the Herman Cain Award.

00:22:09.000 Is that what they call it?

00:22:10.000 They call it the Herman Cain Award.

00:22:11.000 They're very anti-vax, and then they die.

00:22:13.000 And that's embarrassing, too.

00:22:15.000 So you're like, it's hard when you have a stance.

00:22:18.000 It's like, you gotta be right.

00:22:22.000 Right. 1.00

00:22:22.000 Because that's very embarrassing when these guys are like, fuck the vaccine. 1.00

00:22:27.000 I'll never take the vaccine. 1.00

00:22:28.000 And then they're in the hospital going, take the vaccine!

00:22:31.000 And then they die.

00:22:32.000 I don't know if that's ever really happened.

00:22:34.000 Oh, it's happened a million times.

00:22:35.000 But they say, take the vaccine.

00:22:37.000 Oh, yeah.

00:22:38.000 I hear that.

00:22:39.000 That guy, Phil Valentine.

00:22:41.000 I hear that.

00:22:42.000 Yeah.

00:22:42.000 But I want recordings.

00:22:44.000 I agree.

00:22:44.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:22:45.000 Like, if I was promoting a vaccine, I would want to say, on his deathbed, he was telling people to take the vaccine.

00:22:51.000 But it makes sense, right?

00:22:52.000 Like, if your whole thing was, don't take it, and then you die.

00:22:57.000 So that's one of the things where it's like, You don't want to be that guy.

00:23:03.000 Well, here's the other thing that drives me crazy is that for so many people that have caught it, they tell you just to go home and come back when your oxygen rate dips below 92. Yeah, that's not good care.

00:23:14.000 That's a lot of what happens though.

00:23:15.000 Right.

00:23:16.000 There's no treatment for a lot of people.

00:23:18.000 Every doctor treats it a different way in that regard.

00:23:21.000 Yeah.

00:23:22.000 And the ones that aren't, you know...

00:23:25.000 The ones that have got on it early, like Peter McCullough and Dr. Pierre Corey, they prescribed a whole cocktail of things to take, and they had great effect with it.

00:23:35.000 Another thing is that fluvoxamine.

00:23:37.000 Now, Peter Attia was posting something about fluvoxamine.

00:23:42.000 I think it was about fluvoxamine the other day.

00:23:44.000 They're trying to stop people from taking fluvoxamine.

00:23:46.000 For COVID, which has been proven to be very effective.

00:23:49.000 It's actually an SSRI. And for some reason, it works very well to prevent some infections of COVID. What's weird is people trying to stop people from taking medication is very weird.

00:23:59.000 Because they have a binary approach.

00:24:01.000 It's a very suspect.

00:24:02.000 You need to take the vaccine.

00:24:03.000 You need to take the vaccine.

00:24:04.000 But it's also the vaccine has become, in a lot of ways, almost like a religious thing.

00:24:10.000 Yeah.

00:24:10.000 It's like you have to believe in the vaccine.

00:24:12.000 It's like you have to do this thing.

00:24:15.000 I understand that they're trying to say that these things aren't a replacement for a vaccine, but I don't know why you can't say, hey, we've got an effective vaccine and here are treatments as well.

00:24:25.000 Because you don't make as much money on the vaccine.

00:24:27.000 Look, clearly the vaccines have influence on media.

00:24:31.000 If you watch that video compilation, Anderson Cooper brought to you by Pfizer.

00:24:35.000 You've seen that compilation.

00:24:37.000 Yes.

00:24:37.000 It's show after show after show brought to you by Pfizer.

00:24:41.000 Clearly, that is going to limit their ability to criticize.

00:24:44.000 Right.

00:24:45.000 It's just going to.

00:24:46.000 Right.

00:24:46.000 It's just going to.

00:24:47.000 I mean, whether it's a spoken or unspoken thing, there's going to be some pushback.

00:24:51.000 Yeah.

00:24:52.000 And that has an effect.

00:24:53.000 And also it has an effect, the term anti-vaxxer has an effect.

00:24:57.000 So there's a lot of people who want to take the vaccine.

00:25:00.000 But you're not.

00:25:00.000 You've gotten other vaccines?

00:25:01.000 I've got all of them.

00:25:02.000 Yeah.

00:25:02.000 Everything except COVID, and I almost got COVID. I almost took the COVID vaccine.

00:25:05.000 I remember you almost took it.

00:25:07.000 The only reason why I did it is because the UFC wanted me to go to a hospital instead of...

00:25:11.000 I thought I could do it at the UFC offices.

00:25:14.000 I went there, and that was the understanding.

00:25:16.000 And they're like, for whatever reason, whether it's the CDC or whatever, they said, you got to go down to the hospital.

00:25:21.000 I said, well, I can't today.

00:25:22.000 Today's the fight.

00:25:23.000 I was going to do it the day of the fights. 0.93

00:25:24.000 I was just like, shoot me up.

00:25:27.000 I didn't even think of a side effect.

00:25:29.000 I was like, we're going to be...

00:25:30.000 Nobody even knew side effects were a thing back then.

00:25:33.000 But then, they pulled it.

00:25:34.000 I was supposed to come back within two weeks.

00:25:36.000 I said, I'll come back in two weeks because I'm going to be back here again.

00:25:38.000 And I go, I'll just come a day early and we'll do it at the hospital.

00:25:42.000 And then they pulled it during that time period. 0.99

00:25:44.000 And I was like, what the fuck? 0.99

00:25:45.000 And then two people I knew had strokes. 1.00

00:25:48.000 And then I was like, what is going on?

00:25:50.000 And they had a stroke after they took the vaccine.

00:25:53.000 Yes.

00:25:53.000 And that was Johnson& Johnson.

00:25:54.000 Yeah.

00:25:55.000 And that's the one that they're telling people to not take now because of rare blood clots.

00:25:59.000 Like, how rare is it that you're telling people not to take it?

00:26:02.000 But did they get COVID? I don't know, but I know two people who did get COVID that took the Johnson& Johnson, including Dana White.

00:26:07.000 He got COVID. But even the people that had strokes, they didn't get COVID. They might have got COVID after they got strokes.

00:26:13.000 Right.

00:26:14.000 A lot of people did.

00:26:15.000 My point is that I think a stroke is a small price to pay for peace of mind.

00:26:19.000 If it's a minor stroke.

00:26:20.000 I think if you have a stroke, you have peace of mind.

00:26:24.000 And you know that you're not going to be sick.

00:26:27.000 I'd rather stroke out in a CVS after getting a vaccine than have to deal with COVID. My friend just almost stroked out in a Walgreens.

00:26:38.000 After the vaccine?

00:26:39.000 They shot him up and then they give you 15 minutes.

00:26:43.000 All my friends are horribly unhealthy.

00:26:44.000 They're all comedians, but none of them have had a stroke.

00:26:47.000 Well, this guy, it took his booster just last week.

00:26:50.000 Yeah.

00:26:50.000 And within 15 minutes, they had to take him to the hospital.

00:26:53.000 His heart started racing and pounding, and he was freaking out, and he couldn't breathe, and he had to lie down, and then they took him off in an ambulance.

00:26:59.000 And this is a dude you just...

00:27:01.000 Yeah, it's a guy I know from L.A. Yeah.

00:27:03.000 Not good.

00:27:04.000 Not good.

00:27:05.000 Yeah.

00:27:06.000 There's that thing.

00:27:06.000 They tell you, wait here for 15 minutes in case you die.

00:27:09.000 Yeah.

00:27:09.000 And he almost died.

00:27:10.000 They told my agent that, and he goes, I'd rather die in my Tesla than die in Walgreens.

00:27:14.000 And he got in his car and left.

00:27:17.000 Stroked out on the highway.

00:27:18.000 Real L.A. response.

00:27:19.000 He goes, I'd rather die on the 101. Fuck you. 1.00

00:27:24.000 Listen, it seems to be one of those situations where it's obviously you don't want to stroke out in a CVS. But you don't want to be one of these people who didn't take it, and then you're in ICU going, I was wrong! 1.00

00:27:38.000 Right, but how many of those people could have been saved with monoclonal antibodies?

00:27:41.000 I don't know.

00:27:42.000 How about most of them?

00:27:43.000 Perhaps.

00:27:44.000 I bet a lot of them.

00:27:45.000 Some of them.

00:27:45.000 If you get it early enough.

00:27:46.000 Yeah, but there's people that got it pretty deep in, and they still did really well.

00:27:50.000 Yeah.

00:27:51.000 I knew a guy who got it 14 days in.

00:27:52.000 He was wrecked.

00:27:53.000 And then 14 days in, he finally got a hold of monoclonal antibodies, cleared it right up.

00:27:57.000 Yeah.

00:27:58.000 Within three days, he said he was good to go.

00:27:59.000 But he's not working for the new variant.

00:28:01.000 I don't know if that's true.

00:28:02.000 Yeah.

00:28:03.000 Do you think that's true?

00:28:04.000 Well, Ben took it.

00:28:04.000 He wasn't.

00:28:05.000 The monoclonal didn't really affect him.

00:28:08.000 Like, for me, for Delta, I was better two days later.

00:28:11.000 Listen to that word, Delta.

00:28:12.000 How do you know what variant you got?

00:28:14.000 That was the one that was spreading in the summer.

00:28:16.000 Yeah, me too.

00:28:17.000 But what happened to the first one?

00:28:19.000 It took a vacation?

00:28:20.000 I don't know.

00:28:20.000 It's not around anymore?

00:28:22.000 It's not working anymore?

00:28:23.000 Well, that was the one they were talking about.

00:28:25.000 Yeah, but how do we know?

00:28:26.000 Oh, I don't know.

00:28:27.000 This is what's driving me crazy.

00:28:28.000 I have no idea.

00:28:28.000 We're going to pull the monoclonal antibodies because Omicron, it's not effective for Omicron.

00:28:33.000 What about all the people that don't have Omicron?

00:28:35.000 That have the other one, yeah.

00:28:35.000 Do you think the Delta's still around?

00:28:37.000 Sure.

00:28:37.000 Did it stop?

00:28:38.000 It's weird that they're pulling it in general.

00:28:40.000 Why would you pull a medication? 1.00

00:28:41.000 Dude, I don't buy any of this shit. 1.00

00:28:43.000 I have seen so much fuckery. 1.00

00:28:46.000 I've talked to so many doctors that are talking about this. 0.92

00:28:49.000 I've seen doctors get removed off of Twitter for suggesting off-label use of medications that have been proven to be effective, at least anecdotally.

00:28:58.000 It's very strange that people are being penalized for prescribing harmless medication.

00:29:04.000 Literally harmless.

00:29:06.000 Or the best thing you could do is just do nothing.

00:29:10.000 It's either that or do nothing.

00:29:11.000 Yeah.

00:29:12.000 It's strange.

00:29:14.000 It's absolutely strange.

00:29:17.000 I think that it's a hard call to make with the vaccine because there are people that have gotten hospitalized and died that don't have it. 1.00

00:29:29.000 So that makes people go, oh, fuck. 0.97

00:29:31.000 I think if you have the vaccine, you are clearly better protected than someone who doesn't have the vaccine, particularly if you're not in good shape. 1.00

00:29:41.000 If you're not healthy.

00:29:42.000 Which is the majority of America.

00:29:43.000 It's like, what did we say the other day?

00:29:45.000 40% of America is obese?

00:29:48.000 Is that what it was?

00:29:48.000 Oh, it's more.

00:29:49.000 It's much more.

00:29:50.000 Something highly.

00:29:51.000 And then the ones that aren't are like, a lot of them are pill heads.

00:29:53.000 Yes.

00:29:54.000 Or they're overworked, they're stressed, they're drunks.

00:29:56.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:29:57.000 They're dark with pedophiles. 1.00

00:29:58.000 There's a lot of people that are fucked. 1.00

00:30:00.000 The country's a mess. 1.00

00:30:01.000 And how many people are on medications that also disturb your immune system?

00:30:05.000 100%.

00:30:05.000 A lot of people.

00:30:06.000 There's a lot of people that are on.

00:30:07.000 Well, the other thing is we ignore, you know, part of the COVID thing has been it's taken all of the oxygen out of the conversation.

00:30:13.000 We have an opioid epidemic.

00:30:15.000 We have all kinds of other health problems, too.

00:30:17.000 More people have died from opioids this year, from 18 to 49, than anything.

00:30:21.000 Yeah.

00:30:22.000 More than 100,000 people, 18 to 49, have died from opioids.

00:30:25.000 Yeah.

00:30:26.000 From fentanyl in particular.

00:30:27.000 Fentanyl, laced cocaine, it's a huge problem. 0.99

00:30:30.000 That's a real epidemic and you hear a fucking peep about it on CNN. You don't hear a goddamn peep. 1.00

00:30:34.000 They don't care. 1.00

00:30:35.000 They also don't talk about the people that get arrested that work for them that are perverts.

00:30:39.000 There's a lot of that.

00:30:40.000 Have you seen that?

00:30:41.000 There's more of that than you would think.

00:30:44.000 Yes.

00:30:44.000 Because it's weird.

00:30:46.000 The CIA has that problem too.

00:30:48.000 Do they?

00:30:48.000 They have that problem too.

00:30:50.000 CIA has pedophiles working for them?

00:30:52.000 Yeah.

00:30:54.000 So is it like a cop who's a drug dealer?

00:30:57.000 You're around it and you say, I'm going to try it.

00:31:00.000 I don't know what it is.

00:31:02.000 But there's a major issue at the CIA and the NSA with some of their contractors and some of the people that work there doing horrible things and getting caught.

00:31:14.000 Where is this?

00:31:15.000 I haven't even seen this yet.

00:31:16.000 I mean, Jamie can pull it up, but this is legit.

00:31:19.000 He's working on it.

00:31:19.000 I mean, these are...

00:31:21.000 People that are working within highly sensitive intelligence matters, and you would think that these institutions would know what they're doing, and these people are on the dark web, and they're like, I mean, it's crazy.

00:31:34.000 Too much power.

00:31:35.000 People have too much power.

00:31:36.000 People have too much power.

00:31:37.000 I mean, this is what we're seeing over...

00:31:39.000 Look, the fact that people are...

00:31:41.000 Here it is.

00:31:42.000 Secret CIA files say staffers committed sex crimes involving children. 1.00

00:31:46.000 Holy shit. 0.99

00:31:48.000 Declassified CIA Inspector General reports show a pattern of abuse and a repeated decision by federal prosecutors not to hold agency personnel accountable. 0.99

00:31:57.000 Ha! 0.89

00:31:58.000 Odd.

00:31:59.000 Wow.

00:32:00.000 That's odd.

00:32:00.000 You think they just, they're like, this is bad for PR. Let's just pretend it didn't happen.

00:32:06.000 Well, yeah, I mean this is also we know for a fact that these people for years and years and years have used This as a way to blackmail and entrap people as you know, this is reality You know it's unfortunate secretly amassed credible evidence that at least 10 of its employees and contractors committed sexual crimes involving children. 0.98

00:32:27.000 Holy shit Holy shit My god look at this good scroll down one employee at a sexual contact with a two-year-old and a six-year-old girl He was fired a second employee purchased three sexually explicit videos of young girls filmed by their mothers He resigned crazy third employee off. 0.98

00:32:46.000 I don't want to fucking it's it's disturbing Yeah, yeah, yeah Well, listen, we're at the end of an empire. 1.00

00:32:57.000 This is how it ends. 0.98

00:32:59.000 This doesn't turn around.

00:33:01.000 I'm going to show you how it ends.

00:33:02.000 I'm going to send this to Jamie so you see how it ends.

00:33:06.000 I think China will be okay.

00:33:08.000 China's going to do great.

00:33:09.000 I think China will be okay.

00:33:10.000 I don't worry about China like everyone else does.

00:33:13.000 Did you know that they're already deliberating for the Maxwell trial?

00:33:16.000 I didn't know that it was almost over.

00:33:17.000 What?

00:33:17.000 Yeah.

00:33:19.000 Well, that was a trial.

00:33:20.000 The Ghislaine Maxwell show trial was absolutely a completely unserious attempt.

00:33:29.000 Look at this.

00:33:30.000 The judge in the Maxwell trial asked jurors to deliberate today.

00:33:33.000 They said, no, thank you.

00:33:35.000 Interesting.

00:33:36.000 Well, because it's the holidays.

00:33:37.000 Yeah.

00:33:38.000 Oh, right.

00:33:39.000 I mean, you've got to enjoy Christmas without talking about this creep and his British girlfriend diddling children on an aisle. 1.00

00:33:47.000 Like, there's got to be some level of like, hey, we're trying to decorate our tree.

00:33:53.000 Can we take three days and not do this?

00:33:55.000 Put that back.

00:33:56.000 We could see what it said.

00:33:57.000 Look at this.

00:33:58.000 Frustration grows over heavily redacted Epstein pilots' flight logs.

00:34:02.000 Let me stop right there.

00:34:03.000 Because if they could show Bill Clinton... 1.00

00:34:06.000 Flied with them 26 fucking times. 1.00

00:34:09.000 Who are they redacting? 0.99

00:34:12.000 Well, I think people that are currently in positions of power.

00:34:16.000 You've got to realize that Clintons are done.

00:34:17.000 They're done.

00:34:18.000 They were very powerful, but they're done.

00:34:20.000 But there's a lot of prime ministers.

00:34:22.000 There's a lot of senators.

00:34:24.000 There's a lot of congressmen.

00:34:25.000 There's a lot of people that are still presidents, vice, who knows, that are still in power that they may be protecting.

00:34:32.000 My favorite is when they asked Bill Gates about it.

00:34:34.000 Yeah.

00:34:34.000 And he's like, well, he's dead now.

00:34:37.000 Did you see that?

00:34:38.000 Oh, yeah. 0.95

00:34:39.000 That is the wildest answer ever to why did you have a relationship with a pervert. 0.91

00:34:44.000 Right, right. 0.99

00:34:45.000 He's dead.

00:34:45.000 He's gone.

00:34:47.000 All these creepy tech guys are nerds.

00:34:51.000 They make all this money, and then this guy shows up and goes, hey, I got all these chicks on an island. 1.00

00:34:56.000 They don't ask too many questions.

00:34:58.000 Oh, here we go.

00:35:01.000 Because this is the end of an empire.

00:35:04.000 And this is, Gad Saad said that, and he's definitely right.

00:35:07.000 He said, American's been a hell of a run, but it's over.

00:35:11.000 Yeah, no, it's not looking...

00:35:14.000 This is, a lady is singing, it says the East Room, the people in the background all have masks on.

00:35:22.000 She doesn't have masks on.

00:35:26.000 Why doesn't she have a mask on either?

00:35:28.000 Right.

00:35:29.000 These two old white ladies have no masks. 1.00

00:35:33.000 All the people of color and the diversity behind them are masked up. 1.00

00:35:37.000 That's true.

00:35:38.000 Yeah.

00:35:38.000 Makes no sense.

00:35:40.000 Look, it's almost like they picked it on purpose.

00:35:43.000 You have some African Americans.

00:35:44.000 You have a smattering of Asians. 1.00

00:35:47.000 You have what looks like Latinas. 1.00

00:35:49.000 You don't have any white people except the two white people that have no masks on. 0.81

00:35:54.000 It is a rules for you and not for me video.

00:36:00.000 Look at this. 0.90

00:36:01.000 The only people without masks are white people. 0.95

00:36:05.000 This is like a secret message they're sending out. 0.96

00:36:08.000 Look at this.

00:36:09.000 These old ladies should be nowhere near people. 1.00

00:36:13.000 Do they not know about the Omicron?

00:36:15.000 Call out the holly, haven't I taught you well too?

00:36:21.000 Well, they're singing.

00:36:21.000 So the two without masks are singing.

00:36:24.000 Yeah, but everyone's singing.

00:36:25.000 But is this about the vaccine or not?

00:36:28.000 But they're all singing.

00:36:29.000 Yeah.

00:36:30.000 And they're all wearing nurses' outfits.

00:36:35.000 Those people are singing.

00:36:36.000 There's other voices.

00:36:38.000 So either they're lip syncing or they're singing along because they're moving their face and they're moving their hands and their jaws are moving.

00:36:46.000 Their masks are moving like they're singing.

00:36:48.000 So are they filtered?

00:36:50.000 Is that what the idea is?

00:36:51.000 They're being safe?

00:36:52.000 Where is the president?

00:36:54.000 He's dead.

00:36:55.000 Yeah.

00:36:55.000 I mean, like...

00:36:56.000 Did you see him give answers to a press conference the other day?

00:36:59.000 He took questions?

00:37:00.000 Because I shouldn't even be doing this, right?

00:37:02.000 No, it was beautiful.

00:37:03.000 He took questions yesterday, and they started asking him about tests.

00:37:07.000 And he just kept saying the same thing.

00:37:08.000 Nobody saw this coming.

00:37:10.000 It's like this thing, this Omicron.

00:37:12.000 And as it goes on for like five or six minutes, as it goes on, you're like, oh my god, he's gone.

00:37:17.000 Yeah, he's out.

00:37:18.000 He's worse than he was a month ago.

00:37:20.000 He's getting worse.

00:37:21.000 He's progressively declining, it seems.

00:37:25.000 Yeah.

00:37:25.000 And then Kamala Harris, they're trying to ice her out.

00:37:27.000 All the press coming out is like, she's... 0.98

00:37:29.000 Michelle Obama.

00:37:30.000 Yeah.

00:37:32.000 And they're gonna bring Harris.

00:37:33.000 Michelle Obama and Harris.

00:37:35.000 Harris comes back as the Vice President.

00:37:37.000 Michelle Obama's the President.

00:37:38.000 We get a double dose of diversity.

00:37:40.000 They'll win.

00:37:40.000 Let's go champ.

00:37:41.000 They'll win.

00:37:42.000 And then who's on the Republican side?

00:37:43.000 DeSantis?

00:37:44.000 Trump and DeSantis.

00:37:46.000 Together.

00:37:46.000 They have to make a super team.

00:37:48.000 It's the only way they win.

00:37:49.000 Interesting.

00:37:50.000 That's the only way they win.

00:37:51.000 Super team.

00:37:52.000 Trump comes out as the President.

00:37:53.000 Yeah, if Michelle Obama...

00:37:55.000 I really believe if Michelle Obama runs, she might win.

00:37:59.000 She wins.

00:37:59.000 Yeah.

00:38:00.000 I think she wins.

00:38:00.000 She's good.

00:38:01.000 She's great.

00:38:02.000 She's intelligent.

00:38:03.000 She's articulate.

00:38:04.000 She's the wife of the best president that we have had in our lifetime in terms of a representative of intelligent, articulate people.

00:38:13.000 She could win.

00:38:15.000 I think the only thing that would stop is if she bought into some of these policies that are destroying businesses in America that make people scared. 1.00

00:38:23.000 If she somehow or another supported or showed any support for lockdowns and mandates and all this craziness that's going on, if she did...

00:38:34.000 God willing, we're on the other end of that.

00:38:36.000 And I think that the problems now with defunding the cops and stuff, they seem to be reversing all of those policies in these cities where homicide rates have skyrocketed.

00:38:47.000 Well, they're going to have to.

00:38:48.000 I mean, there's no other solution.

00:38:50.000 People in LA are getting gun in the face when they're eating dinner.

00:38:54.000 They're being attacked.

00:38:56.000 You know, it's like...

00:38:57.000 Now, some of it's overstated to a degree because, like, you know, obviously the media is just...

00:39:02.000 It's the media, right?

00:39:03.000 So, I mean, it's like...

00:39:05.000 They're going to run with it and get people excited about something, but there's a real uptick in crime in wealthy areas, and those people are unhappy.

00:39:15.000 That woman who just got killed in her Beverly Hills home, tragically. 0.89

00:39:19.000 That's the CEO of Netflix's mother-in-law. 0.98

00:39:22.000 It's crazy.

00:39:23.000 Yeah, they gunned her down in her Beverly Hills house. 0.99

00:39:25.000 Yeah, so those types of things are, I think, making a lot of people go, hey, this wasn't the best idea.

00:39:32.000 Not enough people, though. 0.98

00:39:33.000 I mean, people should be in the fucking streets protesting, like the district attorney. 0.99

00:39:38.000 See the district attorney called cops pigs, essentially? 1.00

00:39:41.000 The LA district attorney said, when you roll around with pigs, you get dirty? 0.99

00:39:45.000 That was the way he described what's going on with crime in Los Angeles? 0.96

00:39:51.000 Yeah.

00:39:51.000 Like, what?

00:39:52.000 And he said, this is just a metaphor about being dirty.

00:39:55.000 It has nothing to do with cops.

00:39:57.000 Yeah.

00:39:58.000 Yeah, that was probably not the greatest choice.

00:40:01.000 See if you can find when he said that.

00:40:03.000 You got it right here?

00:40:05.000 Play it.

00:40:05.000 Here.

00:40:06.000 Look at this. 0.98

00:40:06.000 LA District Attorney George Gascon, who's like the biggest fucking communist in all of law, was asked to respond to LA Sheriff Alex How do you say that? 0.98

00:40:18.000 Villanueva. 0.99

00:40:19.000 He's a great sheriff.

00:40:20.000 He's actually really good.

00:40:22.000 My dad used to say, when you wrestle with a pig, you both get muddy and the pig likes it.

00:40:27.000 Says he didn't use the word to demean law enforcement.

00:40:31.000 Just play it.

00:40:33.000 Look, I'm going to...

00:40:36.000 My dad used to say that when you wrestle with a pig, you both get muddy and the pig likes it.

00:40:45.000 Okay? 0.99

00:40:46.000 And that's not big in terms of using the term as to law enforcement, it's to people that often act in ways that I believe that are not consistent with the Yeah, I mean, he's mentally ill. 0.98

00:41:02.000 I mean, to say that is crazy. 1.00

00:41:03.000 It's a psychopath. 0.99

00:41:04.000 No, it's a psychotic statement. 0.96

00:41:05.000 And he's saying this about the L.A. Sheriff. 0.87

00:41:08.000 No, it's crazy. 0.99

00:41:09.000 When you wrestle with a pig, you both get money and the pig likes it. 0.99

00:41:13.000 Imagine that this guy is still in office. 0.98

00:41:15.000 Yeah, no, I mean, it's crazy.

00:41:16.000 It's crazy. 0.99

00:41:17.000 This guy has let so many fucking people out. 1.00

00:41:19.000 Gavin Newsom's still in office, this effete wine merchant. 1.00

00:41:21.000 He's worse, though. 0.83

00:41:22.000 He's worse. 0.98

00:41:22.000 No, he's bad. 0.98

00:41:23.000 He's the worst, because he's letting people off that pull guns on people, pull knives on people.

00:41:28.000 Well, the guy who did the Waukesha massacre had stabbed I thought he tried to run her over.

00:41:37.000 Oh, he tried to run her over with a car.

00:41:39.000 Yeah.

00:41:39.000 Yeah, he tried to run her over with a car.

00:41:40.000 And he was out on $1,000 bail.

00:41:42.000 $1,000 bail.

00:41:43.000 And then he killed 10 people.

00:41:44.000 Then he mowed, which the media talked about it like it was a car.

00:41:47.000 Yeah, caused by an SUV. But he's out on $1,000 bail, ran over the mother of his children, girlfriend, whatever, and then came out and killed somebody.

00:41:58.000 So these policies aren't Working.

00:42:01.000 No.

00:42:02.000 Not even remotely.

00:42:03.000 No.

00:42:03.000 Not even remotely.

00:42:04.000 It's a problem.

00:42:05.000 And the thing is, they get funded.

00:42:07.000 And this was explained to me by the governor.

00:42:10.000 Yeah.

00:42:11.000 He was explaining to me how these people get funded, and then they'll fund someone who's even more progressive to challenge that person.

00:42:18.000 Right.

00:42:19.000 And it's almost like someone's trying to destroy these cities.

00:42:22.000 Right.

00:42:22.000 It's like San Francisco...

00:42:24.000 San Francisco just made an about face.

00:42:26.000 Yeah.

00:42:26.000 The mayor of San Francisco just called for an emergency...

00:42:29.000 San Francisco's looking a little better.

00:42:31.000 I was just there.

00:42:31.000 It's starting to look a little better.

00:42:33.000 Well, she called for a state of emergency that's going to allow them to set up treatment centers, to clean up the streets. 1.00

00:42:39.000 And with a state of emergency, she could just go in and start doing things.

00:42:43.000 Right.

00:42:43.000 And so she's decided that she's going to put an end to things, and I hope it makes sense.

00:42:48.000 Austin has issues, too.

00:42:49.000 Yeah.

00:42:49.000 But they did make a lot of progress with...

00:42:52.000 Some of the homeless encampments and things like that. 0.99

00:42:55.000 They did with that, but the fucking murder rate's up 178% from last year. 0.99

00:43:01.000 They defund the police. 0.99

00:43:02.000 This is what happens.

00:43:03.000 You can't defund the police.

00:43:04.000 You can't get rid of police.

00:43:06.000 No.

00:43:06.000 It's not a good idea.

00:43:07.000 It's not smart.

00:43:08.000 You should have them.

00:43:09.000 They should be accountable.

00:43:10.000 They should be retrained.

00:43:11.000 There should be many things instituted to...

00:43:14.000 They should maybe face penalties in civilian courts when they do something.

00:43:18.000 It shouldn't be an internal slap on the wrist.

00:43:20.000 That's how you get the CIA letting the pedophiles off.

00:43:23.000 So they should be subject to the same laws that they enforce.

00:43:26.000 That being said, you get rid of them, you already have in LA people hiring private security.

00:43:32.000 So really wealthy areas are now hiring their own private security.

00:43:37.000 So you, that's the, you know, this is what happens when you get rid of Public...

00:43:44.000 And by the way, the private security is not going to be better than cops.

00:43:47.000 They're unaccountable.

00:43:49.000 Would you ever want...

00:43:51.000 You may be against a war, but there's no argument that mercenaries, like the Blackwater, whatever they call it now, Z, like Eric Prince's company, there's no argument that they're going to be better than...

00:44:04.000 Trained soldiers because they're unaccountable.

00:44:07.000 Well, most of them are trained soldiers that then move into the private sector.

00:44:13.000 Yeah, but then they can do whatever they want.

00:44:14.000 That's the whole purpose.

00:44:15.000 It's the whole purpose, right?

00:44:16.000 So if you get rid of a public, you're going to have an order somehow.

00:44:20.000 If you get rid of this public police force, you're just going to have private police forces that are made up of maybe ex-military, ex-intel people, and they're not going to be accountable to anybody.

00:44:31.000 Yeah, none of this is a good idea.

00:44:34.000 And the idea that you should get rid of the cops, like, okay, you'd have to go down the line.

00:44:39.000 Is there a problem with any crime?

00:44:41.000 So what do you want to do about that?

00:44:43.000 No cops at all?

00:44:44.000 Yeah.

00:44:44.000 Well, the argument is if we give money to...

00:44:48.000 You know, causes, social justice causes, right?

00:44:55.000 Mental health care, education, you know, early intervention.

00:45:00.000 All those things are valuable and valid, but they're not replacing, if a guy's trying to kill someone in a house, who are you going to call?

00:45:09.000 What's worse than that?

00:45:11.000 Because it actually ramps up crime because the criminals find out that there's no cops out there.

00:45:17.000 That's right.

00:45:17.000 And the cops are toothless.

00:45:18.000 Yeah, they're emboldened.

00:45:20.000 That's why you get all these smash and grabs.

00:45:21.000 Do you see how they put razor wire around the Santa Monica promedad?

00:45:25.000 Yeah. 0.98

00:45:25.000 They put razor wire bales like it's a fucking high security prison to keep people from smash and grabbing because it's been that many. 0.98

00:45:32.000 They have it around the Westfield Mall too in Century City. 0.99

00:45:35.000 Yeah.

00:45:36.000 It's crazy. 0.98

00:45:37.000 The decay of Los Angeles, right before ours, over two years, has been fucking staggering. 0.97

00:45:43.000 Well, it's Minnesota, it's Los Angeles, it's San Francisco, it's New York has problems, it's Chicago, it's Baltimore. 0.88

00:45:52.000 If you look at the homicide rates in all these cities, they're all going up.

00:45:55.000 Yeah, way up.

00:45:56.000 They're all going up.

00:45:56.000 Yeah, and they blame COVID. They all have in common that they defunded the police departments.

00:46:02.000 They all have that in common.

00:46:03.000 Well, also, I think they're...

00:46:05.000 There's also a problem with the idea that you can have a civilization and a society where people are, you know, we all want a respectable relationship with law enforcement.

00:46:25.000 Like, we all want people to be treated well.

00:46:28.000 But you can't have a society where You have zero order because then order is going to be imposed.

00:46:41.000 You know, there's businesses that are like, you know, gangs will protect businesses, right?

00:46:46.000 Mafia will protect businesses.

00:46:47.000 Like, there's going to be some order in society.

00:46:50.000 There's going to be an organizing principle.

00:46:52.000 And if the state doesn't have a monopoly on violence, you have Kyle Rittenhouse.

00:46:56.000 So you have people that are going to take it into their own hands.

00:46:59.000 You have vigilantism.

00:47:00.000 It's inevitable.

00:47:01.000 So that's the other problem is you go, okay, you can't have a society where you go, violence is okay for the things we agree with, which is the craziest thing I've ever seen.

00:47:11.000 And over the last couple of years, people go, oh, well, if you're on the right side of this political issue, you can throw that brick through a window. 0.98

00:47:18.000 Punch a Nazi. 1.00

00:47:19.000 You get to decide who's a Nazi. 0.99

00:47:21.000 Yeah.

00:47:21.000 You get to decide whose property is to be respected and whose isn't.

00:47:27.000 So if you get rid of that idea that we should have, you know, that you can't use violence, if you get rid of that idea, you're opening the gates of hell.

00:47:37.000 You are.

00:47:38.000 And the question is, is this complete total incompetence on the part of the lawmakers and of the politicians and of the people that are orchestrating this?

00:47:50.000 Right.

00:47:50.000 Or is there some manipulation behind the scenes that's designed to make the country fall apart so that people fall in line and that they comply easier because they're scared and because it's chaos?

00:48:05.000 Well, it's probably both.

00:48:06.000 I don't know.

00:48:06.000 Maybe.

00:48:07.000 It's probably both.

00:48:08.000 Probably both.

00:48:08.000 Because people like China, these foreign entities do want America to collapse, right?

00:48:14.000 Yeah, for sure.

00:48:14.000 Why wouldn't you?

00:48:15.000 Yeah.

00:48:15.000 And we also, at this point, the people that are running for things at this point in our decline are crazy.

00:48:22.000 So the people that want to be in Congress now are insane.

00:48:25.000 Yeah.

00:48:25.000 Look at all the jobs you could get.

00:48:28.000 And you would become a congressman?

00:48:30.000 Right. 0.85

00:48:30.000 That's why a lot of these lunatics are like, you know, these are the showmen, the crazy people, the guys like, let's all get AR-15s and sit in the living room. 0.85

00:48:37.000 Yeah. 0.82

00:48:39.000 Two days after a school shooting.

00:48:41.000 I mean, it's like, I had a little tat.

00:48:42.000 Is that a congressman that did that?

00:48:44.000 Yeah, Thomas Massey, I think, did it.

00:48:45.000 Where's he from?

00:48:46.000 He did like my tweet because I said he couldn't afford a whole couch.

00:48:49.000 They're sitting on a very tiny couch.

00:48:50.000 He didn't like it?

00:48:51.000 No, he liked it because I said, like, you spend all your money on guns, you can't afford a whole couch.

00:48:55.000 They're sitting on this weird love scene.

00:48:56.000 He did that?

00:48:56.000 He hit the like button?

00:48:57.000 Yeah, he hit the like button because they're crazy.

00:48:59.000 They don't care anymore. 1.00

00:49:02.000 They're all completely insane. 1.00

00:49:04.000 Look at this. 0.92

00:49:05.000 So they're on this little love seat because they can't afford a couch because they've spent all their money on artillery.

00:49:11.000 And I said that, and he liked it.

00:49:13.000 He liked my tweet.

00:49:14.000 He's got solid trigger discipline, though.

00:49:16.000 Everybody does.

00:49:17.000 Not one person has their finger on the trigger.

00:49:18.000 Yeah, but this is two days after the school shooting.

00:49:21.000 Yeah, not good.

00:49:21.000 Where a 15-year-old heroic kid, this kid Tate Meyer, died trying to save.

00:49:26.000 You know, you're putting up that photo like, you know what it is.

00:49:30.000 But this is the caliber of human being we have now in Congress.

00:49:36.000 Everybody from Ilhan Omar to Marjorie Taylor Greene, all of them are, they act more like comedians.

00:49:42.000 They want attention.

00:49:44.000 They want to get a book deal.

00:49:46.000 None of them seem interested in solving any of the problems.

00:49:50.000 None of them.

00:49:51.000 Yeah, that's a good point.

00:49:52.000 None of them.

00:49:52.000 No, they all want, because by the way, the art of politics is some level of compromise.

00:49:56.000 All of these people just have their brand, and they get out, you know, Ilhan Omar, Cori Bush, they're just like, fuck Whitey, fine. 0.98

00:50:03.000 On the other side, they're like, let's get the guns, and so you just, they all have their brands, and nobody has any interest in reaching across. 0.99

00:50:11.000 You think Cori Bush has ever said fuck Whitey, really? 0.99

00:50:14.000 Everything's white supremacy. 1.00

00:50:16.000 Everything's white supremacy. 0.94

00:50:18.000 Every single thing that ever happens that's not good in this country has to do with white supremacy. 0.97

00:50:23.000 If she's in traffic, it's white supremacy. 1.00

00:50:26.000 It's a completely unserious attempt to build any coalition.

00:50:32.000 How do you build a coalition?

00:50:33.000 By telling people every day, you're white, you have privilege, you didn't work hard for anything you earned, you're the problem, and we have to remake society, and you have to apologize every single day. 0.94

00:50:45.000 That turns them and makes them go, you know what?

00:50:47.000 I'm going to go with the guy sitting with the gun.

00:50:50.000 Thanks.

00:50:51.000 I'll go with the gun on the couch.

00:50:53.000 If these people were serious about even attaining power, but they're not, I think they don't want to get anything done.

00:51:01.000 They don't really care.

00:51:01.000 They just want to be as loud and as, you know, they want to just be as much of the picture as they can be.

00:51:10.000 They want to dominate.

00:51:11.000 They are like comedians in that.

00:51:12.000 One thing you'll see with certain comedians is they start to get a little bit of attention doing a certain thing.

00:51:17.000 And then they do it.

00:51:18.000 And then they really lean into it.

00:51:19.000 They become like hardcore right wing or hardcore left wing.

00:51:23.000 Yeah.

00:51:23.000 I mean, you have Marjorie Taylor Greene and Matt Gaetz and that whole thing, which is the QAnon section of Congress.

00:51:29.000 Is Matt Gaetz QAnon as well?

00:51:31.000 Probably.

00:51:31.000 Marjorie Taylor Greene is, right?

00:51:33.000 She's hardcore. 0.99

00:51:34.000 She was like, they make all these allusions to Trump coming back.

00:51:37.000 I mean, they know what they're doing, right?

00:51:39.000 They know exactly what they're doing.

00:51:41.000 And then the other side, you have the squad, and then they know what they're doing.

00:51:46.000 And then in the vast center is just criminals who are insider trading and selling stock the minute they find out there's a pandemic.

00:51:55.000 Well, Nancy Pelosi, when they asked her about that, when we showed the video, they asked her about insider trade, should they stop congresspeople or members of doing any kind of trading or trading in individual stocks?

00:52:08.000 She's like, no to that.

00:52:09.000 Yeah.

00:52:11.000 They're Americans.

00:52:12.000 It's an open market.

00:52:12.000 Yeah, it's an open market.

00:52:13.000 It's a free market.

00:52:14.000 We should be able to participate.

00:52:15.000 She's worth $200 million. 1.00

00:52:17.000 She's a criminal. 1.00

00:52:18.000 Chuck Schumer, all these people, yeah. 0.99

00:52:20.000 Ted Cruz, all these guys are not to be taken seriously.

00:52:24.000 They're just not to be taken seriously.

00:52:26.000 They're what we have.

00:52:27.000 They're what we have.

00:52:27.000 No one wants that job.

00:52:29.000 Except crazy people. 0.96

00:52:31.000 Well, you know, there's a few that aren't crazy.

00:52:33.000 There's a few interesting people that just want to be leaders.

00:52:36.000 But there's a lot of that needing attention thing, like you were saying.

00:52:39.000 It's totally true.

00:52:41.000 Yeah.

00:52:41.000 What's it?

00:52:42.000 Kristen Sinema in Arizona, who's the bisexual yoga chick with the green hair, and she's just like... 1.00

00:52:50.000 You know, listen, I don't know anything about the Build Back Better Act or whatever.

00:52:55.000 I don't know too much about it.

00:52:56.000 I don't think anybody knows about it.

00:52:57.000 Right.

00:52:57.000 But I don't feel like her opposition to it is like principled opposition.

00:53:01.000 She wants attention. 0.99

00:53:03.000 She goes, Fox News will hire me in two years and they'll give me five million a year.

00:53:07.000 Instead of sitting in Congress for a quarter million.

00:53:09.000 I'll go get five.

00:53:10.000 Do you think that's what she's doing?

00:53:10.000 Absolutely.

00:53:11.000 Really?

00:53:12.000 Of course.

00:53:12.000 So she's leaning into that direction?

00:53:14.000 Yeah.

00:53:14.000 Because she used to be way more progressive, right?

00:53:16.000 Of course.

00:53:17.000 And then she's starting to accept money and starts to do things. 1.00

00:53:20.000 Yeah, she goes, fuck it. 1.00

00:53:21.000 Fuck it. 1.00

00:53:21.000 Megyn Kelly's out, I'm in. 1.00

00:53:23.000 Yeah.

00:53:24.000 Kristen Sinema's in.

00:53:25.000 I'll get a nice big house in that Olive Garden of, you know, she lives in California.

00:53:31.000 It'll look like an Olive Garden.

00:53:32.000 All those houses do in Arizona.

00:53:33.000 And I'll sit there in my pool, and I'll broadcast, and I'll scream and yell, and I'll get all this money.

00:53:40.000 They do look like Olive Garden.

00:53:41.000 They all do.

00:53:42.000 Yeah, I mean, it's...

00:53:43.000 Why is that?

00:53:45.000 I don't...

00:53:45.000 This is, you know, because the people that live in them like eating there, probably.

00:53:49.000 You know?

00:53:51.000 But this woman is not a serious, this isn't like a serious public servant. 1.00

00:53:57.000 I mean, it's laughable. 0.99

00:53:58.000 Do you think they start off wanting to be a serious public servant and once they get in there they just realize it's horseshit? 0.99

00:54:03.000 It's a scam. 0.98

00:54:04.000 From the jump.

00:54:05.000 She goes, I want to be Jennifer Aniston, but I can't be.

00:54:09.000 What are the avenues in society that are available to me?

00:54:13.000 She goes, I don't want to work at the local office at GEICO. These people are not qualified to do anything.

00:54:20.000 It wasn't the choice between her own tech company, Goldman Sachs.

00:54:23.000 Do you know what she used to do, Kristen Sinema, before she was a... 1.00

00:54:27.000 Didn't she teach yoga? 1.00

00:54:29.000 She's like an idiot that babbles about crystals and she goes, you know what? 1.00

00:54:33.000 I can become a congresswoman, which anyone can. 1.00

00:54:39.000 I think I can.

00:54:39.000 Well, it says she became an adjunct professor teaching master's level policy and grant writing at Arizona State.

00:54:48.000 No one cares.

00:54:49.000 School of Social Work.

00:54:50.000 Yeah, great.

00:54:51.000 She's a teacher.

00:54:52.000 Fine. 0.97

00:54:53.000 And a junk business law professor. 0.96

00:54:54.000 And she got bored with that. 0.96

00:54:55.000 She was bored with that.

00:54:56.000 So she goes, you know what I'll do?

00:54:58.000 Let me go to Congress and let me kick up some dust.

00:55:01.000 And now that she's in Congress, she's like, I want out.

00:55:04.000 What did they follow her into the bathroom about? 0.91

00:55:07.000 Oh, I don't know.

00:55:07.000 They're just yelling at her about the thing, that she won't pass the bill.

00:55:10.000 Was that the Build Back Better bill?

00:55:12.000 Yeah.

00:55:12.000 But here's the thing about that bill.

00:55:14.000 Who's read it?

00:55:15.000 Isn't it thousands of pages long?

00:55:17.000 Oh, for sure.

00:55:18.000 But every piece of legislation, who's read any piece of legislation?

00:55:23.000 I've never read anything.

00:55:24.000 I didn't read the Patriot Act when they said there's 19 new agencies and there's 15 color-coded levels of threat.

00:55:32.000 Nobody reads anything.

00:55:33.000 You remember that when they were like, it's code orange?

00:55:35.000 Yeah, it's orange.

00:55:36.000 I don't know what Build Back Better is.

00:55:39.000 I think the controversial stuff is the energy stuff.

00:55:43.000 They're going to tax people. 0.92

00:55:45.000 Oh, that's right, for energy expenditure.

00:55:47.000 Consumption taxes and stuff.

00:55:48.000 Yeah, so if you drive a lot, you have to pay a tax on the amount of miles that you drive, which the problem with that is that's going to give the government access to your car because they're going to have to track that.

00:55:59.000 So you're going to have to write down your miles.

00:56:00.000 It hurts.

00:56:01.000 When they did this in New York City, they put congestion taxes on the Ubers.

00:56:05.000 They then raised their prices.

00:56:07.000 People that were relying on that to get to work, now because the subway was not efficient, so you could go, I could trust the subway and then be late at that point, or you could go, I could get in this Uber pool or whatever.

00:56:22.000 Unfortunately, that affected a lot of people in New York.

00:56:25.000 It was more expensive to take an Uber to work.

00:56:27.000 So you had to go back to the bus and subway and hope that it was working.

00:56:32.000 So that's, I think, in the Build Back Better Act, the problem is like, how much can regular people shoulder the burden of climate change?

00:56:42.000 That's the debate, right?

00:56:43.000 Because if you do nothing...

00:56:46.000 The problem with any sort of problem, whether it's climate change or anything, is then these industries pop up and offer themselves as a solution.

00:56:54.000 That's right.

00:56:55.000 And then they become like some sort of a...

00:56:57.000 They become self-sustaining sort of...

00:57:01.000 They become like a thing, like a unit.

00:57:05.000 Like if you have climate change...

00:57:08.000 And then something comes along and says, like, we can solve climate change.

00:57:12.000 And then they become a consortium.

00:57:14.000 They become some sort of a conglomeration or a corporation.

00:57:17.000 Now you have this thing that it's got control of it and it's profiting off of climate change, just like we have with medical problems.

00:57:27.000 We also know that the sacrifices that people are asked to make are never evenly distributed in society.

00:57:33.000 Right.

00:57:34.000 So if you come to people and say, hey, we'd like you to drive less.

00:57:37.000 We'd like you to use less energy.

00:57:39.000 The same way with Gavin Newsom sitting there maskless at a dinner at the French Laundry, you go, oh, those rules are not the rules that I have to play by.

00:57:48.000 Right.

00:57:48.000 So I think people are inherently skeptical of these pushes to make people sacrifice because they go, wait a minute, but you guys still get private jets.

00:57:55.000 Right.

00:57:55.000 Right?

00:57:55.000 Yeah.

00:57:56.000 And you guys still get these massive conferences.

00:57:58.000 Yeah.

00:57:58.000 And you guys still...

00:57:59.000 I think everybody...

00:58:00.000 Well, not everybody, but the vast majority of sane people want a better environment.

00:58:05.000 Yes.

00:58:05.000 They want to safeguard an environment.

00:58:08.000 But you got to figure out a way to do it that doesn't bankrupt people.

00:58:10.000 Because people that don't have food don't have the luxury of worrying about the environment.

00:58:16.000 Yeah.

00:58:16.000 Because they go, I can't provide for my family.

00:58:18.000 But it does become an industry, and the climate change fighting industry will be an issue, because then you're going to have a bunch of people working for them, you're going to have a bunch of people that have a vested interest in making, then you're going to have other individual industries that connect themselves to that,

00:58:35.000 that start to fund it and become a part of it, whether it's electric cars or whatever it is, and then you have laws that are passed that penalize their opponents, or penalize their competitors.

00:58:48.000 There doesn't seem to be an easy solution because everything becomes an industry.

00:58:54.000 Everything becomes an industry.

00:58:57.000 Well, that's the thing about profit and politics and profit and the things that we're dealing with in this country in terms of regulations. 0.88

00:59:04.000 When you find out that regulations are passed and that the people who pass the regulations have relationships with businesses that are going to benefit from these regulations, you've got fuckery. 0.96

00:59:16.000 And when you have unchecked fuckery, that's called fraud. 0.92

00:59:21.000 That's a big part of American politics.

00:59:24.000 Getting money out of politics is one of the most important things that anyone could ever do, and no one wants to do it.

00:59:30.000 If you could stop special interest groups, stop corporations, stop any people like that, any groups like that, from contributing to political campaigns, then people would make decisions based on different things.

00:59:41.000 They would have to get donations from the people, from the individual people.

00:59:46.000 Well, Bernie Sanders did that, and they locked him out.

00:59:50.000 They did lock him out.

00:59:51.000 So they locked him out.

00:59:52.000 He literally did that.

00:59:53.000 He raised money, grassroots, and then they literally plotted at the DNC as a way to keep him out.

01:00:00.000 Yeah, twice.

01:00:01.000 Twice.

01:00:01.000 Yeah.

01:00:02.000 They sandbagged him twice.

01:00:03.000 Yeah, I mean, it's wild that he never stands up and yells about that.

01:00:08.000 Well, I think he's not who people think he is.

01:00:12.000 Like, I don't think...

01:00:13.000 He's a good, solid dude, for sure.

01:00:16.000 He's not a revolutionary guy.

01:00:18.000 I don't believe he's...

01:00:19.000 If you look at the things like, you know, he accepted a bunch of military-industrial complex jobs in his own state.

01:00:25.000 He, you know, was pretty party-line on a lot of things.

01:00:28.000 And he departed from the orthodoxy on a few major things, Iraq War and stuff, and we all know them.

01:00:34.000 I think he's a principled guy, but I also don't...

01:00:37.000 I don't think he... 1.00

01:00:39.000 Because if he was a revolutionary guy, he goes, no, fuck it, vote for Trump. 0.99

01:00:44.000 He literally says, no, one of the party is rotten, and it needs to be completely overhauled, so either don't vote or whatever. 0.99

01:00:54.000 But he threw his support behind Hillary and then Biden, quite obviously after he had been kind of sandbagged, and they had arranged this so that he was going to lose.

01:01:04.000 He had the momentum, certainly the second time, for sure.

01:01:07.000 For sure.

01:01:09.000 I just don't think he's a revolutionary guy.

01:01:11.000 I think he's a politician.

01:01:12.000 He's been there 20, 30 years.

01:01:13.000 They just thought that he couldn't beat Trump?

01:01:16.000 Or do you think that they thought that he was going to be a problem if he got into office?

01:01:21.000 Because he would sandbag a lot of...

01:01:23.000 Yeah, all of it.

01:01:23.000 All of it.

01:01:24.000 I mean, I think he's a guy...

01:01:25.000 There's no photos of him on Epstein's Island.

01:01:27.000 Like, he's not a guy that's played ball.

01:01:29.000 He's not a play ball guy.

01:01:31.000 He's a guy that...

01:01:32.000 I think he was at the end of his life.

01:01:34.000 He was old.

01:01:34.000 So they can't hold that over his head, right?

01:01:37.000 It's not like he's a young guy with a family dynasty that is trying to preserve power for generations.

01:01:47.000 He's an old guy that believes in the same things he's believed his entire life.

01:01:51.000 That guy could be very dangerous in the presidency.

01:01:55.000 Do you think that there's another Epstein Island out there right now?

01:01:59.000 Twelve.

01:01:59.000 Better.

01:02:00.000 Newer.

01:02:01.000 Yeah.

01:02:02.000 No, the kids go down a slide into a furnace.

01:02:05.000 No, no, no. 1.00

01:02:06.000 I mean, are you nuts? 0.99

01:02:07.000 Of course there's a better island. 1.00

01:02:08.000 Oh, no.

01:02:09.000 Marriott Bonvoy, whatever company that is now, they own every hotel in America. 1.00

01:02:14.000 The Marriott Bonvoy, you know, they're dumb. 0.98

01:02:17.000 Marriott owns everything. 0.99

01:02:17.000 Go to any hotel now. 0.99

01:02:18.000 It's just owned by Marriott.

01:02:19.000 Really?

01:02:20.000 They've taken over. 0.98

01:02:22.000 They're building, you know, new islands every day for billionaire pedophiles. 0.97

01:02:27.000 Absolutely. 0.55

01:02:28.000 I think it says it on their website.

01:02:29.000 They're quite proud of it.

01:02:30.000 But these freaks don't stop being freaks.

01:02:32.000 So do they go cold turkey?

01:02:34.000 Well, here's the deal.

01:02:35.000 Blackmail now is online.

01:02:37.000 They don't have to do the honeypots anymore. 0.91

01:02:38.000 They can blackmail people online.

01:02:40.000 They can just download porn on you.

01:02:41.000 You can do all kinds of stuff.

01:02:42.000 They can do things to your computer like put porn on your computer.

01:02:45.000 And they know what you're into now because they can just hack everything.

01:02:47.000 That being said, yeah, freaks are not going to stop being freaks and elicit streams of money, which the whole Epstein story was about that.

01:02:55.000 People forget about that.

01:02:57.000 It's also about illicit streams of capital and where they go.

01:03:02.000 Epstein was really good at hiding money for guys like Les Wexner, who we never speak about, and all these other billionaires.

01:03:10.000 He was really good at that.

01:03:11.000 That was what he was good at.

01:03:12.000 And his money could come from drug running, money that is being sheltered from taxes, whatever.

01:03:20.000 Was he good at that, though?

01:03:21.000 Oh, yeah.

01:03:21.000 He was pretty good at it.

01:03:22.000 Because Weinstein says that he doesn't know what the fuck he's doing. 0.99

01:03:25.000 And when it comes to capital and when it comes to finances, Weinstein said he was a fraud. 0.99

01:03:30.000 He said when he met him, he was very clear right away this guy didn't know anything.

01:03:34.000 I will withhold comment because I don't want anyone to have a breakdown.

01:03:38.000 You mean Weinstein?

01:03:39.000 Yeah, I don't think Epstein was...

01:03:42.000 Listen, Epstein was good enough to get into the circles that he got into.

01:03:48.000 And I'm sure he knew a little bit about what was going on.

01:03:52.000 Because I love Eric, but people say the same thing about Eric in his field, right?

01:03:56.000 I don't think they say it about his field.

01:03:57.000 They say it about his theory of everything.

01:03:59.000 Whatever.

01:04:00.000 People say it.

01:04:01.000 So anyone can say anything about anyone.

01:04:03.000 So what I'm here to defend is Jeffrey Epstein's good name.

01:04:08.000 I'm not going to let the Weinsteins trample on Jeffrey Epstein.

01:04:12.000 Okay.

01:04:13.000 Supposedly, Eric was going to get called to testify in his trial, but that's not true.

01:04:16.000 That was a rumor on Twitter.

01:04:18.000 Was that?

01:04:19.000 Yeah, but I think it was just fake.

01:04:20.000 Well, I mean, if he knew something, that could help.

01:04:24.000 But the trial, the Ghislaine Maxwell trial, is weird because it's a federal trial, so you don't get the transcripts, you don't get to see it, you get sketchies, the weird drawings.

01:04:35.000 They have no interest in uncovering what was happening outside of this very small...

01:04:40.000 Look, right?

01:04:41.000 Like this very tightly conceived picture of Jeffrey and Ghislaine, but...

01:04:47.000 They've controlled it very well.

01:04:48.000 They've controlled it very well, and they're also like, well, why?

01:04:51.000 You know, they're not really looking at it from 30,000 feet and going, okay, why was this happening with impunity forever?

01:04:59.000 And how did they have all of these contacts?

01:05:01.000 And everyone knows it was an intel operation.

01:05:04.000 Every person knows.

01:05:07.000 What's that?

01:05:09.000 It's autoplayed video, I didn't mean for that.

01:05:10.000 Everyone knows that, and the job of the media is to steer it away from that.

01:05:15.000 Closing arguments.

01:05:17.000 Let's hear what she has to say.

01:05:18.000 But it's CNN, so they're probably lying.

01:05:20.000 You gotta get information from all sources.

01:05:24.000 First up is the prosecution.

01:05:25.000 They will try to tie together the testimony of the 24 witnesses that they called at the trial.

01:05:30.000 Four of them are accusers, women who say that they were sexually assaulted by Epstein when they were giving him massages.

01:05:37.000 These women testified that Ghislaine Maxwell helped recruit them, helped arrange their travel and their massage appointments, and at times participated in the alleged sexual assault. 0.98

01:05:57.000 Well, that's a lie.

01:06:07.000 Hmm.

01:06:18.000 Yeah.

01:06:19.000 I mean, she's gonna be sacrificed or she's gonna get out, but they'll never let her out.

01:06:24.000 I don't think she's getting out.

01:06:27.000 They're never going to talk about the role that this played in how the world is run, which people don't want to talk about, right?

01:06:36.000 The idea that you have all of these powerful people and all of these different arenas, tech, government, and finance.

01:06:44.000 All of these people are quite guilty or seemingly very guilty of these nefarious activities.

01:06:53.000 They were being blackmailed.

01:06:55.000 They were being filmed.

01:06:56.000 And well, does that have an impact on how the world is run?

01:07:02.000 And nobody wants to have that conversation, but it very clearly does.

01:07:06.000 Who are the people that hold those videotapes?

01:07:09.000 And what do they want out of the people that were videotaped?

01:07:13.000 Right.

01:07:13.000 That's a real question.

01:07:15.000 Are there really video types?

01:07:16.000 Is that real?

01:07:17.000 There have to be.

01:07:18.000 You think so?

01:07:18.000 Well, there's video equipment.

01:07:20.000 What the hell's the point?

01:07:22.000 Maybe they want to make a movie.

01:07:24.000 Yeah, he's a camera collector.

01:07:28.000 No, I believe this entire thing, and it's not that I believe, it's well-researched.

01:07:35.000 This is very much the family business for the Maxwell family.

01:07:38.000 They're an intelligence family.

01:07:40.000 Dad was a super spy for the Mossad.

01:07:42.000 He had a media empire.

01:07:44.000 He was a conglomerate in the UK. Her sisters are very deep in tech.

01:07:51.000 And, you know, she ran the pedo ring. 1.00

01:07:54.000 This was an Intel family.

01:07:56.000 It's wild.

01:07:57.000 That was a family business.

01:07:59.000 Entrenched, get into governments, get in with powerful people.

01:08:02.000 They call them access agents.

01:08:04.000 You're an access, you provide me access to Bill Clinton.

01:08:06.000 Well, Clinton likes women. 1.00

01:08:07.000 And on the younger side, okay, we can get access to him.

01:08:11.000 So, by doing what they're doing and getting all this information, the problem is it destroys the idea that we're living in this society where people have a debate.

01:08:22.000 Like, the reason they can't get the bill back at her act passed is The reason they can't get that act passed is because Jeffrey is dead.

01:08:30.000 Like, if he could have blackmailed Joe Manchin, the act is passed.

01:08:35.000 So truly...

01:08:38.000 This is the type of governing...

01:08:39.000 Do you think that's how it was used?

01:08:40.000 Absolutely.

01:08:41.000 So you think it was used by people to get whatever they were trying to get passed through?

01:08:46.000 Absolutely.

01:08:47.000 And whatever regulations dropped or...

01:08:49.000 I think if you're a billionaire and you have a corporation and you have interests, do you want some senator or congressman from a small, tiny state getting in the way of your ability to make money?

01:09:01.000 No.

01:09:01.000 So what do you do?

01:09:02.000 You've got to leverage.

01:09:03.000 You've got to use leverage to get them to do what you want them to do.

01:09:07.000 But then, if that's the case, what about the scientists?

01:09:11.000 Well, he was a freak.

01:09:13.000 That's the other thing. 0.92

01:09:14.000 Epstein...

01:09:15.000 Well, it was very...

01:09:16.000 A lot of the scientists were...

01:09:21.000 Very brilliant top-of-their-field guys.

01:09:23.000 He was curious about starting a new human race.

01:09:27.000 I mean, yeah, Epstein wanted to start a new race.

01:09:31.000 I mean, it was crazy.

01:09:32.000 What are you talking about?

01:09:33.000 No, this is well-documented.

01:09:35.000 He wanted to seed the planet with his offspring.

01:09:38.000 What? 1.00

01:09:39.000 He was nuts. 1.00

01:09:40.000 Did he have children? 1.00

01:09:41.000 He was an eccentric.

01:09:42.000 He did not have children.

01:09:43.000 So he was like...

01:09:44.000 Just one of those guys that talks about working out but never does?

01:09:47.000 That's right.

01:09:48.000 But guys like Bill Gates and these guys, they're also, obviously everything now is tech.

01:09:55.000 Everything is tech.

01:09:55.000 Every company to some degree is a tech company.

01:09:57.000 So Epstein cozying up with tech people, you see when the blackmail operation goes from nuts and bolts, honeypot to, oh, the future of this will very much be tech.

01:10:09.000 And that's why you see him cozying up with all of those tech people.

01:10:13.000 It's not an accident.

01:10:14.000 Look at this.

01:10:15.000 Yeah.

01:10:15.000 Jeffrey Epstein hoped to seed human race with his DNA. But how do you know this isn't just one of those stories that they write about him after he's dead or while he's arrested because they want to smear him?

01:10:26.000 He's still alive at this point, I think.

01:10:27.000 Yeah, or while he's arrested, like I said.

01:10:29.000 I mean, I think it's a conceivable thing that he'd want to do.

01:10:33.000 Yeah.

01:10:34.000 He's an eccentric guy around very interesting, intelligent people, and I'm sure this comes up.

01:10:40.000 I just think the scientist aspect is very strange, because there was a lot of them.

01:10:44.000 There was a lot of top-flight scientists.

01:10:46.000 And I'm wondering, If he tried to compromise them, so that he could get them to distort data.

01:10:54.000 Yeah.

01:10:55.000 You know what I'm saying?

01:10:56.000 Or get them to, like, if you had a government agency, there was an intelligence agency, and they wanted to get something passed, and you had access to all these scientists, you could compromise the scientists, and then say, look, you don't have to include that part.

01:11:09.000 How about you stand up for this and come up with a reason why this is a good idea?

01:11:14.000 100%, I think it always worked like that.

01:11:17.000 I think by...

01:11:19.000 And by the way, after his conviction for whatever he got convicted for and he served a time in Club Fed down there, even a dinner with somebody was compromising them because you're now with this guy.

01:11:33.000 You didn't want that to be out in the open.

01:11:35.000 So I think his job was to basically...

01:11:40.000 Get as much information as he could and get as much leverage as he could.

01:11:45.000 Now, for who?

01:11:46.000 That's the question.

01:11:47.000 Yeah, that is the question.

01:11:48.000 It's just wild how many people hung out with him after he had got arrested and then prosecuted and then convicted of being a pedophile.

01:11:57.000 Well, you made that good point about Roman Polanski.

01:11:59.000 You know, a lot of people went out and defended Roman Polanski and said, hey, you know, he's a great director.

01:12:05.000 And I'm sure they were like, Jeffrey, you got a massage from a girl. 0.63

01:12:07.000 Well, you know, because you can hear it secondhand.

01:12:09.000 Rich people, like secondhand, will be like, yeah, you got a massage from a girl? 0.98

01:12:15.000 Turns out she was underage.

01:12:17.000 That's probably what was said, right?

01:12:19.000 I mean...

01:12:21.000 And also they know, but nobody in that world wants to get too down the rabbit hole because they all know that people die.

01:12:31.000 That's the other thing.

01:12:33.000 People disappear.

01:12:34.000 And so when you're around these weird people that have all these intelligence connections that are all over the world and their friends are presidents and kings and queens and prime ministers, if you get an invitation, a lot of times you take it.

01:12:50.000 Well, the way we do it here is so much less dangerous to folks like that than the way they do it in China. 0.99

01:12:57.000 Right.

01:12:57.000 Which is why China will win.

01:12:58.000 China is...

01:12:59.000 They're ruthless.

01:13:01.000 They're so ruthless that they got Amazon...

01:13:03.000 Shout out to China, by the way.

01:13:04.000 Shout out to China. 0.96

01:13:05.000 They got Amazon to take down everything except five-star reviews of Xi Jinping's new book.

01:13:14.000 Have you seen that?

01:13:14.000 No, but that's amazing.

01:13:16.000 Pull that out.

01:13:16.000 But I bet it's a good book.

01:13:17.000 That is how you say it, right?

01:13:18.000 Xi Jinping?

01:13:19.000 Yes. 1.00

01:13:20.000 And fuck the people that are slandering that, because I bet it is a good book. 0.99

01:13:24.000 Do you think it's a five-star book or a four-and-a-half-star book? 0.99

01:13:26.000 I bet it's a five-star book.

01:13:28.000 And if China wants to compete with Patreon, they can DM me. 0.53

01:13:34.000 I'll be the first show on China's new...

01:13:37.000 Streaming service.

01:13:39.000 You just can't criticize China ever.

01:13:41.000 Who would want to criticize China?

01:13:44.000 John Cena.

01:13:45.000 I love it.

01:13:46.000 I had a friend there that moved there to teach English and it's great.

01:13:48.000 Really?

01:13:49.000 Sometimes there's homeless people and then sometimes there's not because then they're in the river.

01:13:53.000 Amazon partnered with China Propaganda Arm.

01:13:57.000 Yeah, but about the book.

01:14:01.000 Is this about the book?

01:14:02.000 Yeah, I mean, the headline on another website linked to this.

01:14:07.000 I mean, they took the headline and made it different.

01:14:09.000 Okay, so Amazon reportedly took down reviews of Chinese presidents' book after demands.

01:14:14.000 Amazon.com currently offers G's book with positive reviews from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and HuffPost.

01:14:21.000 Whoa.

01:14:22.000 What's interesting about the way they do it over there is if a billionaire steps out of line, they either lock them, they need to just get them.

01:14:30.000 Yeah.

01:14:31.000 They go get him.

01:14:32.000 They go get him. 1.00

01:14:32.000 And either they kill him. 1.00

01:14:33.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:14:34.000 Or they throw him in some prison somewhere and you never hear from him again.

01:14:37.000 Right. 1.00

01:14:37.000 And they just take turns fucking him. 1.00

01:14:38.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:14:39.000 Or they make him eat his children and stay alive.

01:14:42.000 And Saudi Arabia did that where they locked everyone up in the Ritz-Carlton.

01:14:44.000 Like that seems to be the only way to get these people in line.

01:14:48.000 Yeah.

01:14:49.000 Well, they do it.

01:14:50.000 They do it in China in a very ruthless way. 0.94

01:14:52.000 And they almost did it with Jack Ma, right?

01:14:55.000 They made him disappear for a few months.

01:14:56.000 Yeah.

01:14:57.000 And then he came back.

01:14:59.000 Well, they have one ruling family.

01:15:01.000 And they're like, we are the law.

01:15:03.000 And even though you have a lot of money, you can't displease us.

01:15:08.000 Yeah.

01:15:09.000 Yeah.

01:15:09.000 It's pretty wild.

01:15:10.000 It is pretty wild.

01:15:11.000 But when you run a country like that, you go, how do you beat them?

01:15:14.000 How do you beat a country that runs like a corporation with one ruling party?

01:15:21.000 Not just a corporation, but a corporation that has access to all the information that gets distributed.

01:15:26.000 They've literally locked up the internet.

01:15:28.000 They don't have the regular internet over there.

01:15:30.000 And they have a billion people.

01:15:32.000 And they have a billion people.

01:15:34.000 It's going to be tough to beat them.

01:15:35.000 Do we jump ship now?

01:15:37.000 Will there be rewards for us?

01:15:40.000 Jumping ship is the question.

01:15:42.000 I think we're going to become them.

01:15:44.000 You know what I mean?

01:15:44.000 I think that's going to be the argument for competing with China.

01:15:48.000 Because we have to become them. 1.00

01:15:49.000 The social credit score system, that kind of shit. 0.96

01:15:51.000 The journalist Whitney Webb I've had on my show said that there was a real push years ago saying that if we want to keep our supremacy in the fields of AI and automation and things like that, we have to develop these systems and implement them before China does. 0.98

01:16:06.000 And they are all, you know, Chinese type of social credit score systems and surveillance systems and things like that.

01:16:15.000 So that's a very...

01:16:19.000 Probable outcome is that in order to we got to come up with this technology and export it to the rest of the world before China does.

01:16:25.000 Did you see the thing that Sager did about the company in China where they were working they sold 51% of the company to China?

01:16:34.000 Yes. 1.00

01:16:35.000 They work in the AR sector and they just stole all of their intellectual property changed the name of the company and said fuck you. 1.00

01:16:42.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:16:42.000 Now it's Chinese and it's amazing. 1.00

01:16:44.000 Yeah.

01:16:44.000 Did you see that Obama documentary on Netflix about the Chinese buys the American company?

01:16:49.000 No. 0.97

01:16:49.000 And then the Chinese people come over here and they're like, you're so fat! 0.97

01:16:52.000 Because everyone's like fat and slow. 0.97

01:16:54.000 And China's like, you gotta lose weight and start working hard. 0.98

01:16:57.000 What is this?

01:16:58.000 It's called American Factory, right, Jamie?

01:17:01.000 What?

01:17:02.000 It's called American Factory.

01:17:03.000 The Obamas produced it.

01:17:04.000 It's about a Chinese company that buys an American company and they come over here to America.

01:17:09.000 Is it fiction?

01:17:09.000 No, it is real.

01:17:11.000 It's a documentary.

01:17:12.000 About what company?

01:17:13.000 I forget.

01:17:14.000 It's a Chinese company that they come over here and they start...

01:17:18.000 It's kind of crazy.

01:17:20.000 American Factory.

01:17:20.000 Here, watch this.

01:17:21.000 Yeah, give me some...

01:17:22.000 ...a project that is going to help grow this community, give people jobs, and give a future to your kids and my kids...

01:17:30.000 Wow, they changed the name of the streets to Chinese names.

01:17:33.000 Where you sit today used to be a General Motors plant, and now there are over 1,000 employees working here.

01:17:41.000 Is this a union shop?

01:17:43.000 It is our desire to not be.

01:17:56.000 What's our slogan?

01:17:58.000 To stand still is to move back.

01:17:59.000 We hope someday to get this good.

01:18:08.000 One of the most fascinating American documentaries released this decade.

01:18:14.000 There have been 11 complaints filed.

01:18:16.000 Some workers claim unsafe working conditions and unfair treatment.

01:18:20.000 Doing the same thing over and over again that wears on your body and your soul.

01:18:31.000 It says we're under enormous pressure here.

01:18:34.000 They told me that they had to be here two years away from their family, no extra pay.

01:18:39.000 I've ate at their house.

01:18:40.000 They've ate at my home.

01:18:41.000 We've just bonded.

01:18:46.000 I really admire Americans.

01:18:47.000 They can work two jobs.

01:18:49.000 I thought they didn't have to make any sacrifices.

01:18:53.000 So this is...

01:18:54.000 What company is this that this is documenting?

01:18:59.000 It seems like it's an auto company, right?

01:19:01.000 When a Chinese billionaire...

01:19:02.000 Go down, Jimmy.

01:19:03.000 It says, when a Chinese billionaire reopens a factory and hires 2,000 blue-collar Americans, early days of hope and optimism give way to setbacks as high-tech China clashes with working-class America.

01:19:13.000 So what's weird is that we have American billionaires, not that you have a Chinese billionaire coming in and reopening a factory in America and hiring Americans.

01:19:22.000 Yeah, I thought it was in Ohio.

01:19:23.000 Yeah!

01:19:23.000 I've heard of this plant.

01:19:24.000 So, I mean, good luck, everybody.

01:19:27.000 Jesus Christ.

01:19:28.000 Oh, it is Ohio.

01:19:29.000 Oh, it's so hot enough already, Jamie.

01:19:31.000 We get it.

01:19:32.000 It's the most important state in America.

01:19:34.000 He gets very excited when you talk about Ohio.

01:19:35.000 All he cares about is Ohio. 0.99

01:19:36.000 It's a dump. 0.70

01:19:37.000 He doesn't want to move back there.

01:19:38.000 I'm kidding.

01:19:39.000 I do like it.

01:19:40.000 Notice he doesn't want to move there?

01:19:41.000 No, I mean, Ohio is...

01:19:42.000 I mean, come on.

01:19:43.000 I like it.

01:19:45.000 Great audience is out there.

01:19:46.000 Great pizza.

01:19:48.000 He keeps saying that they have the best pizza. 1.00

01:19:50.000 He's mentally ill. 1.00

01:19:51.000 That's what I'm saying. 1.00

01:19:52.000 They have good ice cream.

01:19:52.000 Grater's ice cream, black raspberry is good.

01:19:54.000 New York has the best pizza.

01:19:56.000 New York.

01:19:57.000 Are we in agreement?

01:19:58.000 New York is the best pizza.

01:19:59.000 And Connecticut's very good, too.

01:20:01.000 New York and Connecticut. 0.99

01:20:02.000 Do you think Ohio can fuck with New York when it comes to pizza? 1.00

01:20:05.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:20:05.000 Yeah, that's not good. 1.00

01:20:06.000 You should go to a doctor.

01:20:07.000 I will say the one thing about Austin.

01:20:08.000 The barbecue here is you can't get better barbecue in America.

01:20:12.000 It's not possible.

01:20:12.000 I've been to Kansas City and I've been to all these places.

01:20:14.000 It's not possible.

01:20:15.000 It's the one thing in terms of food that there's no better barbecue than Austin barbecue.

01:20:22.000 No better.

01:20:22.000 It's really amazing.

01:20:24.000 Terry Black's, Franklin, how do you get better?

01:20:26.000 Yeah.

01:20:27.000 La Barbecue, amazing.

01:20:30.000 Very good.

01:20:30.000 They're all good.

01:20:31.000 You just get different.

01:20:32.000 You don't get better.

01:20:33.000 It's true.

01:20:34.000 It's very good.

01:20:35.000 I will say that I went to Kansas City, I went to all these places, and I went, not impressed.

01:20:40.000 Yeah, I mean, they have good barbecue in other places, but I think this is the best.

01:20:43.000 This is the best. 0.98

01:20:44.000 The food here is fucking insane. 0.98

01:20:46.000 There is some good food here. 0.99

01:20:48.000 Sure, for sure.

01:20:49.000 There's a lot of good food here.

01:20:50.000 They have absolutely the best sushi place on earth here.

01:20:52.000 Have you been to Sushi Bar ATX? No, because you mentioned it, and now it's a four-year wait!

01:20:58.000 Well, why don't you call your friend, Joe, and I'll get you hooked up.

01:21:01.000 I like how he goes, have you been there?

01:21:02.000 I'm like, no, I've tried to go.

01:21:04.000 There's 19 years.

01:21:05.000 Why didn't you ask me?

01:21:06.000 I should ask you.

01:21:07.000 I don't want to bother you.

01:21:09.000 You don't have to bother me.

01:21:10.000 You're my friend, too.

01:21:11.000 I know, but it's funny when you say that.

01:21:12.000 He's like, have you been there?

01:21:13.000 I'm like, no, no one can go anymore.

01:21:14.000 It's just you and Elon Musk in a spaceship landing, and they give you a spicy tuna roll, and then you go back up.

01:21:21.000 Did you see where they were trying to shame Elon for living in a nice house that's not even his?

01:21:25.000 Have you seen this article?

01:21:26.000 Yeah, I mean, it's silly, but I think Elon, doesn't he like this?

01:21:29.000 No, he doesn't.

01:21:30.000 He doesn't like this?

01:21:31.000 I was texting with him about this.

01:21:32.000 Doesn't he go on Twitter all the time for this reason? 1.00

01:21:35.000 He likes to fuck with people. 1.00

01:21:37.000 I think he likes this. 1.00

01:21:38.000 And the house is not that nice, by the way.

01:21:42.000 With all due respect, it's fine.

01:21:46.000 It's fine.

01:21:47.000 Well, here's the thing.

01:21:49.000 He could buy 150 of those.

01:21:51.000 Perhaps.

01:21:51.000 Elon Musk says he lives in a $50,000 tiny house.

01:21:55.000 Is he actually living at his friend's Austin mansion?

01:21:58.000 Listen, I know for a fact he doesn't live there.

01:22:03.000 He stayed there for a while when he first came to Austin.

01:22:07.000 He does not live there.

01:22:09.000 And not only that, even if he did, it's not even his house.

01:22:13.000 So you're giving the richest guy on planet Earth a hard time because he might have stayed in a nice house that wasn't his. 1.00

01:22:23.000 It's stupid. 1.00

01:22:24.000 But it's so crazy. 1.00

01:22:25.000 What do you want him to do with that money?

01:22:28.000 He's literally the richest guy in the world.

01:22:29.000 So what do you want him to do?

01:22:31.000 Do you think he shouldn't live in a nice house on Austin?

01:22:33.000 I don't think that, but I think people, we're at a point now where there's such a vast chasm between people that have a lot of money and the people of nothing, right?

01:22:44.000 And he's become kind of a symbol of that, so is Bezos, because they're literally now flying rockets into space.

01:22:52.000 All the while you have all of these other problems and all of these other issues.

01:22:58.000 So, you know, obviously people are going to...

01:23:02.000 And I think he likes the attention.

01:23:03.000 This is not a guy that doesn't want to be famous.

01:23:07.000 He loves fame.

01:23:09.000 100%.

01:23:09.000 You don't agree?

01:23:11.000 I don't know if he loves it.

01:23:12.000 I think he comes with the job and I don't think he minds it.

01:23:15.000 Oh, I think he quite enjoys it.

01:23:17.000 I mean, he seems to have fun.

01:23:18.000 Do you think he pursues it?

01:23:18.000 He definitely has fun, but he has fun with a lot of things.

01:23:21.000 Is Warren Buffet tweeting every day like this?

01:23:23.000 No, but Warren Buffet is not also inventing 50 different things at the same time.

01:23:27.000 He's a multi-billion.

01:23:28.000 He is, but he's an investor.

01:23:30.000 Sure.

01:23:30.000 Elon Musk is digging tunnels under cities and shooting rockets into space and revolutionizing electric cars.

01:23:36.000 Where are the tunnels?

01:23:37.000 Well, there's one from Vegas to LA. Have you seen it?

01:23:40.000 I've not seen it, and we don't need one.

01:23:42.000 That tunnel should collapse with everyone... 0.99

01:23:45.000 Going from Vegas to fucking L.A., that tunnel should collapse. 1.00

01:23:50.000 I think he likes it. 0.99

01:23:51.000 I think he likes being kind of the bad boy Jetsons.

01:23:57.000 He's like a Jetsons character.

01:23:58.000 Did I tell you about when I went to Vegas with Whitney and we got stranded there and we had to drive all the way back?

01:24:04.000 First of all, you got in a plane with Whitney?

01:24:07.000 Yeah, it was a good time.

01:24:09.000 No?

01:24:09.000 You wouldn't do it?

01:24:10.000 Her energy is so bad that I would think all the engines would fail. 0.64

01:24:13.000 Like, I love Whitney, but when I'm around her, I'm terrified that, you know...

01:24:18.000 I got a video that we have to play on the podcast because it's so extraordinary.

01:24:21.000 But it is...

01:24:22.000 What was she doing in Vegas? 0.92

01:24:24.000 She had a gig.

01:24:25.000 And so I introduced her at the gig.

01:24:27.000 What is she doing with these gigs? 1.00

01:24:28.000 Doesn't she have enough money? 1.00

01:24:29.000 She doesn't have enough money. 1.00

01:24:30.000 She wants more money. 1.00

01:24:31.000 She has tens of millions of dollars. 1.00

01:24:32.000 She wants more.

01:24:33.000 So weird.

01:24:34.000 That's not how I feel.

01:24:35.000 She does these weird gigs.

01:24:36.000 I'm like, why don't you just relax?

01:24:38.000 I would do those weird gigs, too.

01:24:39.000 No.

01:24:40.000 I mean, this is crazy.

01:24:41.000 No, no, no, no.

01:24:42.000 It's a good move.

01:24:43.000 Here, Jamie.

01:24:44.000 It's a good move.

01:24:45.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:24:45.000 I'm going to send you this.

01:24:47.000 So, we're at Andrew Schultz's wedding.

01:24:49.000 Yes.

01:24:49.000 Thanks for the invite.

01:24:50.000 I'm kidding.

01:24:51.000 Listen, it's not my wedding.

01:24:52.000 You can come to my wedding.

01:24:53.000 None of us comedians got invited, but that's okay.

01:24:56.000 Is it getting to you, Jamie?

01:24:58.000 Not yet.

01:24:58.000 It says...

01:24:59.000 Oh, there you go.

01:25:01.000 Okay.

01:25:01.000 Hold on.

01:25:02.000 Okay, hold on.

01:25:04.000 How was the food at the wedding?

01:25:06.000 It looked like a beautiful wedding.

01:25:07.000 It was actually a sushi bar.

01:25:08.000 Oh, that's cool.

01:25:09.000 Sushi bar is a Montecito spot.

01:25:11.000 That's kind of cool.

01:25:12.000 They served fantastic sushi.

01:25:13.000 It really did look like a beautiful wedding, and I'm very happy for him.

01:25:16.000 Is it coming through, Jamie?

01:25:19.000 It says sending.

01:25:20.000 There you go.

01:25:20.000 Okay.

01:25:21.000 It was awesome.

01:25:22.000 So we got a little lit.

01:25:24.000 Me and the wife and Lex Friedman and Whitney.

01:25:27.000 And we decided to fly.

01:25:30.000 So Lex Friedman decided to not eat for 30 hours and drink bottles of whiskey.

01:25:37.000 What is his thing?

01:25:37.000 He was so blasted.

01:25:39.000 So at the end of the night, we wind up, let me just, before you play this, at the end of the night, we wind up stranded in Vegas, because Whitney got a private jet to get there, and then once they got her to the thing, they're like, get the fuck out of here. 0.97

01:25:52.000 She did the gig, and then there was supposed to be a jet home.

01:25:54.000 We got to the airport, they're like, there's no one here.

01:25:56.000 There's no crew.

01:25:58.000 She tried to blame it on vaccine mandates.

01:26:00.000 The jet's broken.

01:26:01.000 She's like, well, nobody wants to fly because of the vax.

01:26:03.000 I'm like, you just probably didn't book.

01:26:04.000 It's the jankiest jet ever.

01:26:06.000 Yeah, you didn't book an actual thing.

01:26:08.000 Yeah, wheels up.

01:26:09.000 So take a look at this.

01:26:11.000 Play this.

01:26:13.000 Oh, hello.

01:26:16.000 I've been out here in Vegas.

01:26:19.000 I went to Andrew Schultz's wedding.

01:26:22.000 And Whitney Cummings and my wife and Rex Friedman.

01:26:30.000 And then we went to Vegas.

01:26:35.000 And...

01:26:35.000 Oh, Lex.

01:26:41.000 Oh my god.

01:26:44.000 Got a little drunk.

01:26:46.000 He looks like he just got the booster.

01:26:49.000 No, I'm not drunk.

01:26:50.000 I'm wide awake.

01:26:51.000 And I'm drinking coffee.

01:26:53.000 This is at 2 in the morning, by the way.

01:26:56.000 So now, what did you guys do if you can't get back in the morning?

01:26:58.000 We had to get a drive.

01:26:59.000 We had someone to drive us back.

01:27:01.000 To L.A.? Yes.

01:27:02.000 Four hours?

01:27:03.000 Four hours.

01:27:03.000 In like an Escalade or something?

01:27:05.000 Yeah, SUV. Four hours.

01:27:07.000 That's crazy.

01:27:07.000 That was the only way to get back.

01:27:09.000 Crazy.

01:27:09.000 Yeah, they were like, we can't get you any flights, and the airport was closed because it was after midnight, so there's no flights back.

01:27:16.000 They don't fly out of Vegas late at night. 1.00

01:27:18.000 They're like, fuck you, stay and lose money. 1.00

01:27:20.000 So you just stay. 1.00

01:27:22.000 Yeah.

01:27:23.000 Interesting.

01:27:23.000 When you were in California, did you miss it a little?

01:27:26.000 No.

01:27:27.000 None.

01:27:27.000 Montecito's gorgeous, though.

01:27:28.000 It's beautiful.

01:27:29.000 It's gorgeous.

01:27:30.000 You didn't miss it a little bit.

01:27:31.000 You didn't think about how fun it would be to have a home invasion. 1.00

01:27:36.000 You'd kill that guy. 1.00

01:27:37.000 That old bitch got shot, Joe. 1.00

01:27:39.000 You would kill that guy. 1.00

01:27:40.000 Think about it. 0.99

01:27:40.000 I don't want to kill anybody, Tim. 0.99

01:27:41.000 I understand that, but you can. 1.00

01:27:43.000 That old bitch wasn't ready. 1.00

01:27:45.000 You're ready. 1.00

01:27:46.000 You think I'm ready?

01:27:46.000 You're ready.

01:27:47.000 Thank you.

01:27:48.000 I'm just saying.

01:27:52.000 Well, I went to California.

01:27:53.000 Did a little shooting.

01:27:54.000 Bang, bang, bang. 0.89

01:27:55.000 Went to Tarrant Tactical.

01:27:56.000 Got some training in.

01:27:57.000 Did you go to Felix?

01:27:59.000 Went to Felix.

01:28:00.000 I know you go to Felix.

01:28:00.000 Yeah, it's very good.

01:28:01.000 Oh my God, it's good.

01:28:02.000 You want to see pictures?

01:28:03.000 Yes.

01:28:03.000 I'll show pictures.

01:28:04.000 It's great. 0.99

01:28:05.000 The food is fucking fantastic. 0.98

01:28:06.000 Get him to open something here. 0.99

01:28:08.000 He's actually thinking about it. 0.99

01:28:10.000 Because they keep fucking with him. 0.99

01:28:12.000 And the mandates are out of control. 0.99

01:28:15.000 Well, it's also, this is probably a good city where people should open, they could open a restaurant here because there's definitely room.

01:28:22.000 Yeah.

01:28:22.000 You know?

01:28:23.000 There's room.

01:28:24.000 There's room. 0.97

01:28:24.000 And then, especially if you did it like on 6th Street, there's so much fucking open real estate. 0.97

01:28:29.000 Yeah. 0.89

01:28:29.000 So much available stuff. 0.89

01:28:30.000 Grab some.

01:28:31.000 And it's got a great food culture.

01:28:33.000 Like, there's so many people that like to go.

01:28:35.000 They like to eat.

01:28:35.000 Try to get into Red Ash out here, too.

01:28:37.000 It's hard, yeah. 0.98

01:28:37.000 It's fucking hard. 0.98

01:28:38.000 And then they have Jay Carver's, his new place. 0.99

01:28:42.000 There's a lot of great fucking restaurants out here, man. 0.99

01:28:45.000 Jeffries? 0.99

01:28:46.000 Have you been to Jeffries yet?

01:28:47.000 I haven't been to Jeffries.

01:28:48.000 Sensational.

01:28:49.000 I think there's a lot of room, too, though, for people that are trying to open stuff up, if they can do it, and they have a name in L.A., if they come out here, and as the city grows, their restaurant will grow.

01:29:02.000 Yes.

01:29:03.000 Yeah, I think so, for sure.

01:29:04.000 For sure.

01:29:05.000 This place is booming and it's just begun.

01:29:07.000 Well, this is Miami.

01:29:08.000 What's interesting is that Austin and Miami became these pandemic destinations that are actually now...

01:29:14.000 You have a huge tech influx to Austin.

01:29:17.000 Goldman Sachs is moving their wealth management division down to Miami.

01:29:21.000 Cathie Woods' ARC Investments moved down to St. Petersburg, Florida.

01:29:25.000 New York and L.A., Listen, I was always of the mind that those cities would always be the two big cities.

01:29:32.000 I think we all were.

01:29:33.000 But I think that now you are starting.

01:29:36.000 I don't know what that will result in, but you are seeing a lot of people leave those cities.

01:29:42.000 Well, don't you think a lot of it has to do with taxes?

01:29:44.000 It doesn't make sense financially to stay in those cities.

01:29:47.000 Because you used to get a tax incentive.

01:29:49.000 They used to get, even though the state taxes were high, you used to be able to take that state tax off of your federal tax.

01:29:55.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:29:56.000 You can't do that anymore.

01:29:57.000 And that was something that was changed by Trump, apparently.

01:30:00.000 You would know better than I would.

01:30:01.000 I think it's coming back where you're going to be able to do that, but I think it's twofold, right?

01:30:05.000 I think it's taxes.

01:30:06.000 I also think quality of life right now, whether you...

01:30:13.000 No matter how much into the crypto stuff you are or not, it's a massive disruption, right?

01:30:17.000 Like blockchain technology is massive disruption.

01:30:20.000 And a lot of the people that are into it are like, why am I going to live with this brand new technology that's revolutionizing and has the potential to revolutionize stuff?

01:30:30.000 Why am I going to live in the same city?

01:30:33.000 Why am I going to live in the same old city?

01:30:35.000 Why not be part of a city?

01:30:37.000 You're never going to impact New York.

01:30:39.000 You're not going to impact LA. But a lot of people are going, I want to be part of a city and help that city grow and really have an outsized influence in that part of the world.

01:30:52.000 You can definitely do that here.

01:30:53.000 You could do it here.

01:30:53.000 A lot of crypto people are moving to Miami.

01:30:56.000 Some of them are in Puerto Rico.

01:30:57.000 Yeah, the Puerto Rican thing is interesting.

01:31:00.000 4% taxes.

01:31:01.000 Gordon Ryan was explaining it to me last night.

01:31:03.000 The Paul brothers.

01:31:03.000 Yeah, the Paul brothers are doing that.

01:31:05.000 They spend 50% of their time in the States, 50% of their time there.

01:31:09.000 Capital gains taxes.

01:31:11.000 You don't have to pay at all.

01:31:12.000 Yeah.

01:31:13.000 I think if the taxes in LA went to things that made sense, people wouldn't have a problem.

01:31:19.000 I wouldn't have a problem with it.

01:31:20.000 The problem is that you can't collect record taxes from people and then have every measurable standard of life get worse.

01:31:29.000 A lot worse.

01:31:30.000 That can't happen.

01:31:30.000 Yeah, it can happen.

01:31:31.000 And the thing about Austin that I've loved more than anything is the people are more relaxed and friendly here.

01:31:38.000 Is that true?

01:31:39.000 100%.

01:31:39.000 Who was mean to you in LA? They're just weird.

01:31:42.000 I would see people around you and you were always treated like a god.

01:31:46.000 This is my one thing you say that.

01:31:47.000 You're like, people are friendlier in Texas.

01:31:49.000 I've never seen anyone be anything but very happy to see you.

01:31:54.000 In LA. It's not like people- Yeah, but it's not like I don't know that people aren't nice.

01:31:59.000 Like I see the way they talk to other people.

01:32:01.000 Sure.

01:32:01.000 I see the way they talk to me if they don't know who I am.

01:32:04.000 Yeah.

01:32:04.000 The people here are friendly, but I think people everywhere are kind of friendly, right?

01:32:08.000 You think so?

01:32:09.000 I think they're tense in LA. I think there's too much traffic and too many people.

01:32:12.000 Yeah, but the traffic's coming here.

01:32:14.000 I mean, you got to be careful what you wish for.

01:32:16.000 It's a joke.

01:32:16.000 It's gonna not be a joke.

01:32:18.000 It's a joke.

01:32:19.000 It'll not be a joke soon.

01:32:20.000 It's a joke.

01:32:21.000 Keep telling everyone how great it is.

01:32:23.000 I leave here at 5 o'clock all the time.

01:32:24.000 It's like, la-dee-da, I'm home in 10 minutes. 0.99

01:32:26.000 It ain't shit. 0.98

01:32:27.000 Sure. 0.96

01:32:27.000 But I think that, you know, you were treated nicely in L.A. People liked you in L.A. Do you think that people are nicer here? 0.96

01:32:37.000 It's hard to... 0.98

01:32:38.000 I think people are sweet everywhere, and then people suck everywhere. 0.91

01:32:42.000 I don't think there's a real... 0.82

01:32:43.000 I've never noticed a huge difference between the way people act. 0.72

01:32:49.000 I think people in New York want things very quick, but they're not dicks, they just want things very quick. 0.79

01:32:54.000 Kelly's a little more laid back. 0.67

01:32:57.000 I don't think...

01:32:58.000 The man on Sixth Street who stabbed me last week was very sweet.

01:33:03.000 You don't stand still on 6th Street.

01:33:06.000 You got to keep walking.

01:33:06.000 Yeah.

01:33:07.000 But I mean, listen, there's tremendous potential in the city.

01:33:11.000 The city has some issues like everything else.

01:33:13.000 Yeah.

01:33:13.000 But there's some issues.

01:33:15.000 There's issues whenever you get giant groups of people together.

01:33:18.000 That's right.

01:33:18.000 But I think there's less issues when you get a million versus when you get 20 million.

01:33:22.000 Well, you're going to have more than a million here soon.

01:33:24.000 You get like 400-something people moving here every day.

01:33:27.000 Is that true?

01:33:27.000 400?

01:33:28.000 Yeah.

01:33:29.000 Where are they going?

01:33:30.000 I don't know.

01:33:30.000 Not your neighborhood.

01:33:31.000 No.

01:33:32.000 I tried to tell Tony Hinchcliffe to buy a house.

01:33:33.000 And he's like, oh, I don't know.

01:33:36.000 I don't know if I should spend this kind of money.

01:33:38.000 I go, it'll be worth more money in the future.

01:33:40.000 I'm like, okay, just be poor forever.

01:33:42.000 Figure it out.

01:33:43.000 Come on, man.

01:33:44.000 You got money.

01:33:45.000 Yeah.

01:33:45.000 He should buy something.

01:33:46.000 Buy a fucking house. 1.00

01:33:47.000 Let's get this nice house. 1.00

01:33:48.000 He's like, I don't know if I can go for it. 0.99

01:33:49.000 I'm like, fucking go for it. 0.98

01:33:51.000 What do you do? 0.99

01:33:51.000 Want to rent forever? 0.99

01:33:52.000 Yeah.

01:33:52.000 Come on.

01:33:53.000 Interesting.

01:33:54.000 If all these people are moving here, then it's a good investment.

01:33:56.000 It's a nice house.

01:33:57.000 For sure.

01:33:57.000 I think that owning an estate that is Texas or Florida is great.

01:34:05.000 Yeah, Texas or Florida.

01:34:06.000 A lot of people are moving to Florida, too.

01:34:08.000 Maybe even more people are moving to Florida, I think, than here.

01:34:12.000 I think it's good to have a spot in those two places.

01:34:15.000 Yeah.

01:34:16.000 You know?

01:34:17.000 At least I love New York and LA, too, and hopefully they get their act together.

01:34:20.000 And you've been touring everywhere, right?

01:34:22.000 I've been everywhere.

01:34:22.000 The stark difference between some cities, it's so strange.

01:34:25.000 Yeah.

01:34:26.000 You go to some cities and everybody's in a frothy panic and you go to other cities, it's like the world is completely normal.

01:34:31.000 Now we're in like a malaise where people are like, they don't know what's going on.

01:34:35.000 They have like the mask is hanging off.

01:34:37.000 Like what I've seen now is it's like much more, it's not as starkly different as it was before.

01:34:43.000 Like it was very stark for a while.

01:34:44.000 You go to Nashville and San Francisco and Nashville's like, woohoo!

01:34:48.000 And San Francisco's like, ah!

01:34:49.000 Now I feel like it's kind of a malaise where everybody's like, hey man, what the hell?

01:34:55.000 People are kind of starting to just enter into this broken spirit.

01:35:00.000 People now just have a broken spirit everywhere.

01:35:02.000 You just did San Francisco, right?

01:35:03.000 I loved it, yeah.

01:35:05.000 What was it like hanging out in the city?

01:35:07.000 It's fine.

01:35:08.000 Do they have vaccine mandates for food and everything, for restaurants?

01:35:11.000 Yes.

01:35:11.000 They made me show my thing when I had a...

01:35:18.000 It's funny, but it was...

01:35:20.000 No, I mean, again, supposedly the crime there is going up.

01:35:23.000 I'm sure it is.

01:35:24.000 I didn't see any of it.

01:35:25.000 Like, we were in the cash show, the Tenderloin.

01:35:28.000 We were just driving around looking after the show for what was open.

01:35:31.000 We ended up in a great Chinese food spot there.

01:35:33.000 Did you have to show a vaccine card to eat there?

01:35:35.000 No, we ate in a hotel.

01:35:37.000 We just grabbed it and left.

01:35:38.000 It was late, but I didn't feel unsafe there, but I'm sure that in certain areas you would feel unsafe.

01:35:45.000 So it didn't feel any different than normal San Francisco to you?

01:35:49.000 Not really.

01:35:51.000 Like, I could see where the issues are.

01:35:55.000 L.A. has felt the most different when it was like...

01:36:00.000 You know, because you really...

01:36:01.000 L.A.'s so big.

01:36:03.000 And you have to drive.

01:36:05.000 So if you have a friend somewhere else, you've got to drive 30 minutes.

01:36:08.000 And in that 30 minutes, you can see a massive display of problems in L.A. That's, I think, the difference.

01:36:16.000 San Fran's a small city, so there's problems, but LA, you're like, okay, get in your car, and five minutes in, you're like, Jesus!

01:36:24.000 That seems to be where I've noticed the stark differences the most.

01:36:28.000 But supposedly they've cleaned up Venice.

01:36:32.000 They're cleaning things up.

01:36:33.000 What?

01:36:34.000 The beach?

01:36:36.000 The encampments and stuff.

01:36:37.000 Really?

01:36:37.000 Yeah.

01:36:38.000 Interesting.

01:36:38.000 I was just there.

01:36:39.000 No, people can't do it.

01:36:42.000 People have had enough.

01:36:43.000 Yeah, they have had enough, but just how long does that last?

01:36:47.000 How much change can they do?

01:36:49.000 And what's the timeline before things get back to 2018 levels?

01:36:55.000 What's the timeline?

01:36:56.000 Is it 10 years?

01:36:58.000 That's a great question.

01:36:59.000 Because that's probably a realistic assessment, if you really thought about how much time it takes to bring a city back to where it was before the pandemic.

01:37:05.000 We also look at, like, if New York and LA go down, it's kind of like the country's in real trouble.

01:37:11.000 New York's never going to go down.

01:37:13.000 LA has more of a chance of going down because so many people there are transient in the first place.

01:37:17.000 That's right.

01:37:17.000 It's a different kind of environment in LA. There's very few people that are proud to be from LA. Not very few, but like less percentage.

01:37:27.000 Right.

01:37:28.000 There's a lot of people who are proud to be from New York, and they don't want to let anybody take New York away from them.

01:37:32.000 And they have a lot of hope in Eric Abrams.

01:37:35.000 Yes.

01:37:35.000 Eric Adams?

01:37:36.000 Eric Adams.

01:37:36.000 Adams, I believe.

01:37:38.000 Eric Adams, who is the former police officer who's now the mayor, and a lot of people have hope for him because he's a Democrat, but he's also tough on crime.

01:37:49.000 That city, if New York goes down, you're looking at the country going down.

01:37:53.000 New York is the crown jewel of America in terms of cities, right? 1.00

01:37:57.000 Right, but with one of the worst fucking mayors that's ever existed. 1.00

01:38:00.000 Maybe worst politician in history. 1.00

01:38:02.000 He's horrible. 1.00

01:38:03.000 He's got a fake name. 1.00

01:38:04.000 Yeah, he's very, very bad.

01:38:06.000 Somehow or another...

01:38:07.000 He doesn't care.

01:38:08.000 What was his name again?

01:38:09.000 Warren Wilhelm.

01:38:10.000 Warren Wilhelm became Bill de Blasio.

01:38:13.000 He's a joke.

01:38:14.000 It's very bad.

01:38:15.000 He's a strange guy, man. 0.98

01:38:17.000 Yeah, he's a freak.

01:38:18.000 And there's $850 million missing.

01:38:21.000 Do you know about that?

01:38:22.000 No.

01:38:22.000 His wife had some mental health initiative, and they raised $850 million.

01:38:27.000 It's unaccounted for.

01:38:29.000 I didn't hear that.

01:38:30.000 Oh, yeah, you need to see this.

01:38:31.000 I bet.

01:38:32.000 Google this.

01:38:33.000 Yeah.

01:38:33.000 Because it's one of those things that people in New York keep bringing up.

01:38:36.000 My friend John Joseph keeps bringing this up.

01:38:38.000 Yeah.

01:38:38.000 Like that this guy and his wife, or somehow or another, have misappropriated or lost count of or lost track of an enormous sum of money that was supposed to go to, like, mental health.

01:38:51.000 Right.

01:38:53.000 Well...

01:38:56.000 What happens with that?

01:38:58.000 I mean, how does someone not go to jail?

01:38:59.000 Here it is.

01:39:01.000 Where has $850 million gone?

01:39:03.000 Bill de Blasio's wife can't account for a staggering amount of taxpayer money that the New York mayor gave her for a mental health project. 1.00

01:39:11.000 She was assigned an $850 million budget for a Thrive New York City program.

01:39:16.000 But records show Scheme has failed to keep track of what it spent the money on.

01:39:21.000 A small amount of data that was collected shows it fell far short of targets.

01:39:25.000 Despite that, organizers have expanded the budget to $1 billion over five years.

01:39:31.000 That is what happens when terrible politicians control enormous sums of wealth with impunity in one of the greatest cities the world's ever known.

01:39:40.000 Yeah, it's crazy.

01:39:42.000 Nearly 100 billion stolen from COVID-19 relief programs, Secret Service says.

01:39:48.000 That's even a minimum.

01:39:50.000 A minimum of nearly $100 billion has been stolen from government COVID-19 relief programs set up to help businesses and people who lost their jobs due to the pandemic, according to the U.S. Secret Service.

01:40:01.000 Isn't the Secret Service supposed to be protecting the president?

01:40:03.000 Why are they looking for the money that they gave for COVID-19?

01:40:07.000 There's some financial harm, too.

01:40:09.000 Okay, Small Business Administration, Roy Dodson, Agency's National Pandemic Fraud Recovery Coordinator, in an interview.

01:40:16.000 The Secret Service didn't include COVID-19 fraud cases prosecuted by the Justice Department, where roughly 3% of the $3.4 trillion in COVID-19 relief dispersed by the government, the amount stolen from the pandemic benefits shows the sheer size of the pot is enticing to the criminals,

01:40:35.000 Dodson said.

01:40:39.000 It's the grift at the end.

01:40:41.000 It's the grift at the end.

01:40:44.000 Everybody right now is just trying to steal the last amount of money.

01:40:48.000 Nobody really has any faith in anything.

01:40:51.000 They're just like, what can we grab?

01:40:53.000 Is this the end of the Empire?

01:40:55.000 It's the middle of the end.

01:40:58.000 It's not even the beginning of the end.

01:41:00.000 Well, it is the winter of death.

01:41:01.000 Have you seen that?

01:41:03.000 For the unvaccinated, the winter of death.

01:41:06.000 Slightly negative.

01:41:07.000 It doesn't seem like leadership.

01:41:09.000 Well, what's weird is that they've also said this is kind of a mild variant.

01:41:13.000 Yeah.

01:41:13.000 It's not going to.

01:41:14.000 Well, they're ramping it up in the light of the most mild variant ever.

01:41:19.000 Literally, one person has died in the United States, and now they've taken that back, and they're not saying he died from COVID. The guy had a series of serious health problems, and he also tested positive for COVID, the Omicron variant, when he died.

01:41:33.000 But the Omicron variant, according to most people's assessment, is basically a cold.

01:41:37.000 Smiled, yeah.

01:41:38.000 You don't lose a sense of smell.

01:41:39.000 You don't lose...

01:41:40.000 You're not getting the fevers.

01:41:41.000 You're just getting cold coughs and headaches and body aches.

01:41:45.000 It's...

01:41:45.000 We're all at the point now with this where we're all just...

01:41:48.000 We've all hit the wall.

01:41:50.000 You know?

01:41:51.000 Like, I think people are just kind of tired and it's become confusing to people on a level that is...

01:42:00.000 Far and away like you know when this started people were like well We've got this thing we're gonna do we have to do Hopefully there'll be a treatment some time a vaccine whatever it would be now There's 20 vaccines half of them work.

01:42:13.000 There's 10 treatments Some of them are good some of them aren't if you bring them up people will accuse you of you know being a colluding with whatever like you know The masks work and they don't work.

01:42:25.000 It's like people are just tired.

01:42:27.000 Everybody's tired. 0.54

01:42:28.000 If this was a shitty movie, I'd be really tempted to fast forward to about five minutes before the end where you see the Chinese soldiers in hazmat suits with gray skies carrying machine guns moving across Chicago. 0.88

01:42:40.000 I'm hoping for it. 0.96

01:42:42.000 Nuclear waste.

01:42:42.000 By the way, the idea that they wouldn't run the country better is crazy.

01:42:47.000 I think maybe that's our only hope.

01:42:50.000 South Africa's huge Omicron wave appears to be subsiding just as quickly as it grew.

01:42:55.000 Yeah, it burns through people.

01:42:56.000 And that's the idea about these vaccines, excuse me, these viruses rather, that as they, most viruses, it's not a universal truth, but most viruses, as they mutate, they become less virulent and more contagious.

01:43:10.000 Right.

01:43:10.000 And this is the best example of that.

01:43:11.000 This is like extremely contagious and not virulent at all.

01:43:16.000 I just hope that when the pandemic ends, we can still hear from Fauci.

01:43:20.000 I want to still hear from him.

01:43:21.000 He's never going to go away now.

01:43:23.000 Check him.

01:43:23.000 Well, I said on my show, the real pandemic is vanity, you know?

01:43:27.000 And that's, you know, he's been...

01:43:29.000 He should have resigned.

01:43:31.000 Somebody else should be doing the job. 0.94

01:43:32.000 I mean, it's silly. 0.88

01:43:34.000 He's not good at it.

01:43:36.000 No, but his attitude is, well, this is my whole life.

01:43:39.000 He's science.

01:43:40.000 I am science.

01:43:43.000 It's a bad PR. This has been a mess from the jump, and I think people are just tired of it.

01:43:49.000 We need to move on from this to what will eventually be the total economic collapse coming in six months.

01:43:55.000 What are we looking at in six years?

01:43:57.000 If I could put you in a Rip Van Winkle capsule and pop you out in six years, what are we seeing?

01:44:02.000 Another, an economic crash.

01:44:05.000 Another one.

01:44:05.000 A crash.

01:44:07.000 Like a serious haircut.

01:44:09.000 Is there a bubble that needs to burst?

01:44:12.000 I don't know.

01:44:12.000 You tell me.

01:44:13.000 There's people selling pictures of dogs to each other for $80 million online.

01:44:17.000 You tell me if there's a bubble.

01:44:18.000 Look, I got an NFT right there.

01:44:20.000 Yeah, I like that one.

01:44:21.000 That's pretty.

01:44:22.000 That makes sense.

01:44:23.000 The Beeple stuff makes sense to me. 0.70

01:44:24.000 I think the NFT technology is great, and I think that a lot of it's going to really be 100% the way digital art, digital real estate and stuff, but...

01:44:33.000 You know, yeah, there's a bubble.

01:44:35.000 Our interest rates have been artificially low forever.

01:44:38.000 You can get a 30-year mortgage right now, sub three, which is great.

01:44:42.000 Sub three and a non-adjustable?

01:44:44.000 Non-adjustable.

01:44:45.000 Well, you could get...

01:44:48.000 A fixed rate might be in the low three, but I mean, it's crazy the amount of free money that's out there right now.

01:44:55.000 You have that coupled with the fact that we are in how many?

01:44:59.000 What's the national debt number now?

01:45:02.000 20 trillion. 0.65

01:45:02.000 I mean, it's silly. 0.65

01:45:05.000 80% of dollars in circulation were printed in like the last 24 months or something.

01:45:10.000 There's some crazy statistic like that.

01:45:11.000 Yeah.

01:45:12.000 What?

01:45:12.000 Oh, yeah.

01:45:13.000 80%?

01:45:14.000 Something very high.

01:45:15.000 Jamie can tell you.

01:45:16.000 And so this is to deal with the inflation because of COVID? Yeah.

01:45:21.000 In terms of when is all of that going to self-correct and how much blood is in the water and how painful that is?

01:45:27.000 Yeah.

01:45:28.000 For sure.

01:45:28.000 I mean, there's no way we get out of this without a real issue.

01:45:34.000 So do you think that manufacturing has to come back to America?

01:45:37.000 That'll never happen.

01:45:38.000 Never?

01:45:39.000 Never.

01:45:40.000 I don't think you're going to see large-scale manufacturing in this country ever again.

01:45:43.000 Really?

01:45:44.000 Yeah.

01:45:44.000 Do you think it's because of the environmental impact of large-scale manufacturing or the financial or the both?

01:45:49.000 Is that into just labor costs are going to go where, you know, labor jobs go where the costs are lower and they'll never be lower here.

01:45:56.000 But I think we need...

01:45:57.000 Yeah, 40% of U.S. dollars in existence were printed in the last 12 months.

01:46:01.000 Jesus Christ.

01:46:03.000 So, I mean, that's a problem.

01:46:04.000 But that's why...

01:46:05.000 Is America repeating the same mistake of 1921 Weimar Germany?

01:46:11.000 Yeah, Weimar Germany.

01:46:12.000 Bad.

01:46:13.000 So, in terms of what's going to happen in the next six years, I mean, there's probably no way we avoid...

01:46:18.000 You know, there's going to be a crash.

01:46:19.000 China and Russia must be sitting back licking their chops right now.

01:46:23.000 Just going, look at this.

01:46:25.000 Time is now.

01:46:26.000 Well, that's why we need to go.

01:46:27.000 That's why we need another scam.

01:46:30.000 And the NFT thing's big and we need it.

01:46:32.000 Look at the national debt.

01:46:33.000 Look at it run.

01:46:35.000 We need crypto.

01:46:37.000 We need Bitcoin.

01:46:38.000 We need Ethereum.

01:46:40.000 We need you to back a coin and stop sitting on the sidelines and actually get in and back a coin.

01:46:45.000 Do you want to save the economy or not?

01:46:47.000 I don't know if there's too many coins.

01:46:49.000 How do you know who's going to use what?

01:46:50.000 You need a coin, then you let everyone buy your merch with that coin. 1.00

01:46:53.000 Oh, fuck that. 1.00

01:46:53.000 Buy tickets to your shows with that coin. 1.00

01:46:55.000 That's nonsense.

01:46:56.000 You have to believe.

01:46:57.000 Why?

01:46:57.000 Because if you don't believe in your own coin, why am I going to believe in it?

01:47:00.000 I'd rather stay in the Ponzi scheme forever and ever and ever.

01:47:03.000 No, no, no, no, no.

01:47:04.000 We need a decentralized financial instrument.

01:47:07.000 Okay.

01:47:07.000 How do we do that?

01:47:09.000 Which one do you back?

01:47:10.000 Well, I have a Bitcoin.

01:47:11.000 I have one Bitcoin and I have five Ethereum.

01:47:13.000 I'm a huge player in the crypto market.

01:47:16.000 I'm very big.

01:47:17.000 What about Dogecoin?

01:47:18.000 I don't have any Dogecoin.

01:47:20.000 But it's right there.

01:47:21.000 Yeah.

01:47:21.000 Look at that little cute fellow.

01:47:23.000 Yeah, that is kind of cute.

01:47:24.000 So that's NFT you got?

01:47:25.000 That's a gig of Chad.

01:47:27.000 How much is that?

01:47:28.000 How much does it cost?

01:47:29.000 We don't know.

01:47:30.000 It was free.

01:47:30.000 It was a gift.

01:47:31.000 It only cost what people are willing to spend.

01:47:33.000 But I'm just saying, you got to get involved right now because creators, I'm telling you, This is the next move.

01:47:39.000 You're going to be able to sell your jokes, one joke for however much money.

01:47:44.000 I'm trying to squirrel away an enormous sum of money and never work again.

01:47:48.000 I understand that.

01:47:48.000 First of all, I believe you could have retired at like 27 and never worked again.

01:47:53.000 Truly.

01:47:54.000 So this idea that you have to keep...

01:47:56.000 But no, you've got to get into crypto.

01:47:59.000 There's a lot of people that I have to pay.

01:48:02.000 Artist Pack just sold 266,445 shares of an NFT for $91.8 million on Nifty Gateway, making him arguably pricier than Jeff Koons.

01:48:14.000 That's right.

01:48:15.000 What?

01:48:16.000 30,000 buyers bought portions of the work which could, in theory, be merged into a single NFT. Like, what does that even fucking mean? 0.93

01:48:26.000 It means by ignoring this, you're leaving a lot of money on the table. 0.95

01:48:29.000 Is that his NFT? It looks like three moons.

01:48:32.000 That's probably a picture of one...

01:48:35.000 To be honest...

01:48:36.000 That's his NFT? It gets real complicated, but yeah, there's 30,000 of them available.

01:48:41.000 If you bought 10 of them, you could merge those all together and make a new one.

01:48:45.000 Here's my thought.

01:48:47.000 Can that guy just take that money now?

01:48:49.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:48:49.000 And that's his money.

01:48:50.000 Yep.

01:48:51.000 He's got 91 million real American dollars.

01:48:53.000 More than that.

01:48:54.000 Really?

01:48:55.000 Yeah.

01:48:55.000 I believe he's sold over $300 million in the last two years.

01:48:58.000 Jesus Christ.

01:48:59.000 Remember when being an artist, you were guaranteed to be poor?

01:49:02.000 Now all you have to do is sell NFTs.

01:49:04.000 Digital ownership is going to allow artists to make money.

01:49:10.000 It's true.

01:49:10.000 They're going to be the most wealthy people.

01:49:11.000 That might be a good thing.

01:49:12.000 They're not going to be the most wealthy people.

01:49:14.000 Who's going to be the most wealthy?

01:49:16.000 And the same people that are always the most wealthy, you know? 0.98

01:49:18.000 Well, maybe these fucks will get into NFTs. 1.00

01:49:20.000 Well, I'm just saying you're missing an opportunity that... 0.99

01:49:24.000 Interesting.

01:49:25.000 You gotta get involved.

01:49:27.000 What should I do?

01:49:28.000 I would immediately come up, have a few meetings with people.

01:49:32.000 And make a coin?

01:49:33.000 Make a coin!

01:49:35.000 Come up with a cryptocurrency that functions in the Rogan universe for your merch, your tickets, everything.

01:49:39.000 Do people do that?

01:49:40.000 It's like Motley Crue coin?

01:49:41.000 That's right.

01:49:42.000 You need to have a digital currency that you allow your fans to buy all of your stuff with.

01:49:48.000 And then that only works with me and my stuff.

01:49:51.000 That's right.

01:49:52.000 Or someone else could adopt it.

01:49:54.000 Or someone else could adopt it.

01:49:56.000 And now if RoganCoin works out, well then maybe a lot of the comedians in your orbit start going, well that's a very effective way to do it, and they all use your cryptocurrency.

01:50:04.000 And then you have a feudal cryptocurrency empire, and you own all this digital real estate, and then you start selling NFTs of things in the studio, and you amass all of this money.

01:50:15.000 Do you want to manage this fund?

01:50:17.000 I would like to get involved.

01:50:19.000 I've met some very respectable, upstanding people in Miami that want to get involved immediately.

01:50:23.000 How much coke are they on?

01:50:25.000 They're alert.

01:50:29.000 It's not Adderall.

01:50:30.000 It's not even coke anymore.

01:50:30.000 It's Adderall and Vyvanse.

01:50:32.000 Yeah?

01:50:32.000 What's Vyvanse?

01:50:33.000 I don't know.

01:50:33.000 Something where you chew your tongue.

01:50:37.000 It's like an Adderall.

01:50:38.000 It's like a slow-release Adderall.

01:50:39.000 If you want to manage this, I will give you a hefty section of the price.

01:50:42.000 I'm going to do a movie funded in crypto.

01:50:44.000 Really? 0.87

01:50:44.000 I'm meeting right now with people to fund a movie in crypto, a comedy movie, because the studio system sucks. 0.87

01:50:50.000 Nothing has been made that's funny.

01:50:52.000 Respect to Black Bar Mitzvah with Tiffany Haddish and Billy Crystal.

01:50:55.000 Haven't seen it.

01:50:56.000 Sure, it's amazing.

01:50:57.000 But everything else is bad.

01:50:58.000 I think that's the title of the movie.

01:51:01.000 So...

01:51:03.000 I'm talking to people about funding a movie in crypto and letting people buy it with crypto.

01:51:07.000 Why not?

01:51:08.000 People want to see funny stuff.

01:51:09.000 You can easily fund a movie in crypto and people can buy it using a digital wallet.

01:51:14.000 Why not?

01:51:16.000 Because the studio system, traditional Hollywood, all that stuff sucks right now.

01:51:21.000 And, you know, this is the way things are going to get made right now.

01:51:25.000 Artists and creators that are not paying attention to this stuff, we can joke around about it, make fun of it, because a lot of it's crazy.

01:51:30.000 It's like anything else. 0.96

01:51:31.000 A lot of it is crazy and silly. 0.97

01:51:32.000 It's overvalued. 0.95

01:51:33.000 There's bad actors in it, of course.

01:51:35.000 That being said, blockchain technology is not going away, and I think it will eventually revolutionize how people can make things, fund things.

01:51:45.000 All of the changes that allow people to crowdsource or crowdfund their own projects, I think...

01:51:54.000 With crypto, it becomes even more powerful and transformative.

01:52:00.000 So with crypto, when you say you're going to fund a move with crypto, do you have specific coins in mind?

01:52:05.000 Are you going to create a coin to fund this?

01:52:07.000 You do it a million different ways.

01:52:08.000 I think I'm talking to people right now about the best way to do it.

01:52:12.000 And I think that you want to do it in a way that...

01:52:17.000 You know, you want to do it, make a really great movie, and then you want the process to be repeatable.

01:52:22.000 So you want it to be a process you can do again, so you want to do it the right way.

01:52:28.000 When I talk to people that want to talk to me about crypto, it's exhausting.

01:52:33.000 I feel like they're stealing my air.

01:52:36.000 I understand that.

01:52:36.000 And I can't breathe.

01:52:37.000 I just want to get away from them really quickly.

01:52:40.000 I understand that, but here's the reality of the situation.

01:52:43.000 It's because you haven't talked about it enough.

01:52:45.000 It's like working out.

01:52:47.000 Really?

01:52:47.000 When you work out once, it hurts.

01:52:49.000 You work out every day, you feel great.

01:52:51.000 So I should talk about crypto every day?

01:52:52.000 Every day.

01:52:53.000 So we should have a crypto corner here on the JRE? The fact that you don't have a crypto podcast is insane.

01:52:59.000 Yeah.

01:52:59.000 This is probably one of the crypto people right now.

01:53:02.000 They're hearing you.

01:53:02.000 From Miami, calling, saying, thank God.

01:53:05.000 We got a plan!

01:53:07.000 Joe, this is the future.

01:53:09.000 There's no other way around it.

01:53:10.000 Interesting.

01:53:11.000 Yeah.

01:53:11.000 Because the incompetence of the Federal Reserve and the government, the way they're handling money, and the fact that they have access and control.

01:53:20.000 A decentralized financial instrument like Bitcoin was inevitable.

01:53:25.000 And Ethereum has even less problems than Bitcoin does, like it's also- Why is that?

01:53:32.000 I forget exactly why.

01:53:34.000 I think that Ethereum's, and Jamie can pull this up, but the thing about, and I don't understand too much about it, but there seems to be less problems with the actual blockchain technology with Ethereum than Bitcoin.

01:53:45.000 I don't exactly know why.

01:53:47.000 But people love Ethereum.

01:53:48.000 So when we open up the comedy club- Like the NFTs things, a lot of it's on their blockchain.

01:53:55.000 And those NFT things are huge right now.

01:53:56.000 A lot of it's on Ethereum.

01:53:58.000 I don't know why.

01:53:59.000 I'm not pretending to be an expert in this.

01:54:01.000 But I will just say that without knowing much about it, I am convinced it's the future.

01:54:06.000 And if people doubt it, they and their family should go on a list.

01:54:15.000 It's probably everyone's going to be on the list by the end of the 10 years.

01:54:18.000 Jamie, can you find out why Ethereum doesn't have the problems with Bitcoin?

01:54:20.000 I mean, does anyone want to carry more?

01:54:23.000 That's a big problem, I guess.

01:54:25.000 It has to do with storing the blockchain.

01:54:27.000 Just Google why Ethereum is superior to Bitcoin.

01:54:30.000 Just Google that.

01:54:31.000 Because there's a lot of people that feel like that, Jamie.

01:54:33.000 See if something clear comes up quickly.

01:54:35.000 I'm just saying it's interesting stuff, right?

01:54:38.000 And it allows people to have freedom.

01:54:41.000 Here's the quick answer.

01:54:42.000 Which is good.

01:54:43.000 Freedom is good.

01:54:44.000 Bitcoin allows only public, permissionless, or sensor-proof transactions to take place.

01:54:49.000 Ethereum allows both permissioned and permissionless transactions.

01:54:52.000 The average block time for Ethereum is significantly less than Bitcoin's 12 seconds versus 10 minutes.

01:54:58.000 It's faster.

01:54:59.000 What's good about a drive-through?

01:55:00.000 You go through it faster.

01:55:02.000 Right.

01:55:03.000 It's like Chick-fil-A. Ethereum's like Chick-fil-A. It's like, oh, the line looks long, but it moves.

01:55:09.000 I read that and I still don't know what I read.

01:55:11.000 Well, Joe, it's not about knowing.

01:55:13.000 It's about kind of believing and just getting into it.

01:55:17.000 You just got to get into it.

01:55:18.000 You got to believe.

01:55:19.000 You're too much of a stickler on like, what's the actual thing?

01:55:22.000 It's like, let's just dive in.

01:55:24.000 This is when we had mortgages.

01:55:26.000 We didn't know how these things were going to work, but people were very excited about having a pool.

01:55:32.000 So it's paralysis by analysis on my part, right?

01:55:34.000 Is that what's going on?

01:55:35.000 I think you're a big brain concept guy, and what you need to do is just kind of stop losing yourself in the deets, sit back and go, everyone's having a lot of fun, and people are smiling.

01:55:47.000 If I lost all of my money in Bitcoin, that would be a real issue.

01:55:51.000 But you never would.

01:55:52.000 You never would.

01:55:54.000 But, listen, it's an inevitability.

01:55:58.000 And if people ask you too many specific questions, just say it's an inevitability over and over again.

01:56:04.000 What is Bitcoin worth now?

01:56:06.000 Today?

01:56:06.000 Yeah.

01:56:07.000 Just under $50,000.

01:56:08.000 What's the highest it's ever been?

01:56:10.000 $67,000 or so.

01:56:11.000 And don't they predict it will one day go to a million?

01:56:13.000 $500,000 a coin.

01:56:15.000 Yeah, there's predictions that by the end of this year, which would be a week from now, it's going to be over $100,000, which...

01:56:20.000 Well, that's maybe not true.

01:56:22.000 But it's going to be $500,000 a coin.

01:56:25.000 That's what they said at Art Basel.

01:56:26.000 I believe it.

01:56:27.000 Yeah, by next summer, it could be 250k.

01:56:29.000 There's a lot of predictions.

01:56:30.000 What's Art Basel?

01:56:31.000 It's a place where people in Miami go to do drugs and talk about the future of art and the digital landscape.

01:56:39.000 It's the metaverse, except it's real.

01:56:41.000 But it's art, right?

01:56:43.000 It's art show, yeah.

01:56:44.000 It's always been a famous art show.

01:56:45.000 It's pretty cool.

01:56:46.000 But now, because obviously a lot of art is digital and crypto is moving, the NFTs are on the Ethereum blockchain, it's become a huge crypto event, too.

01:56:55.000 I don't want to name any names, but I've gotten emails from the shadiest people I know, wanting me to get involved in crypto.

01:57:00.000 But they're nice people!

01:57:02.000 I've met them in Art Basel, they're lovely people. 0.99

01:57:04.000 But the ones that I know that want to talk to me about crypto and NFTs, they're the fucking shadiest people I know. 0.95

01:57:10.000 Yes, but we need those people because they're going to get us out of this predicament we're in. 0.95

01:57:15.000 You think?

01:57:16.000 Yeah, we need a scam.

01:57:17.000 The country's run on a succession of scams.

01:57:20.000 But how is this going to protect us from China? 0.99

01:57:23.000 Well, I don't know.

01:57:25.000 Isn't that the real issue?

01:57:27.000 They're buying up everything.

01:57:28.000 It'll pump up the economy.

01:57:29.000 Do you own any digital real estate?

01:57:32.000 What?

01:57:32.000 Do you own any digital real estate?

01:57:34.000 I'm going to ask you again.

01:57:36.000 What?

01:57:36.000 I mean, I know you have like a house and everything.

01:57:39.000 What does that mean?

01:57:40.000 It's real estate in the metaverse.

01:57:43.000 It's real estate.

01:57:44.000 I don't understand.

01:57:45.000 You're such a boomer.

01:57:47.000 You need to own digital real estate, Joe.

01:57:49.000 Oh my God.

01:57:50.000 Snoop Dogg paid $450,000 to be Snoop Dogg's metaverse.

01:57:55.000 Oh, someone paid $450,000 to be Snoop Dogg's metaverse neighbor.

01:58:01.000 Wow, he's now a resident of the sandbox metaverse.

01:58:04.000 In 20 years, you're not going to be able to go outside because of the climate.

01:58:08.000 So you're going to spend most of your time in a pod, and you're going to live online.

01:58:12.000 Your NFTs are going to be your precious art, and you're going to live in the metaverse in digital real estate.

01:58:17.000 So is Snoop making all that money?

01:58:19.000 Like, if it's $458,000 to be his neighbor, is that...

01:58:24.000 His money now?

01:58:25.000 No.

01:58:25.000 No, it's just that when a celebrity moves into a building, people want to live in it.

01:58:28.000 Okay, good question now.

01:58:29.000 So who gets that money?

01:58:30.000 Where's that money?

01:58:31.000 The person who owned the land.

01:58:33.000 That's nonsense.

01:58:34.000 What do you mean? 0.63

01:58:35.000 It's nonsense.

01:58:35.000 How is it nonsense?

01:58:36.000 They don't get all of it, though.

01:58:37.000 But there's no land.

01:58:38.000 What do you mean there's no land?

01:58:38.000 There's a digital land.

01:58:39.000 This little video is what it is.

01:58:41.000 This is the sandbox.

01:58:42.000 This is Snoop's land in the sandbox.

01:58:44.000 Go back to that.

01:58:46.000 What is this?

01:58:48.000 This is the sandbox.

01:58:49.000 Hold on.

01:58:50.000 So, I'll pause it real quick.

01:58:51.000 No, no, no.

01:58:51.000 Keep it going.

01:58:52.000 I want to see how this plays out.

01:58:54.000 Wave 1. Launching December 2nd.

01:58:56.000 Starting time.

01:58:59.000 He gets it.

01:59:01.000 Alright, so there you go.

01:59:02.000 Before it goes too far.

01:59:04.000 So each of those little blocks are for sale.

01:59:07.000 What?

01:59:08.000 And essentially, see how it says on sale?

01:59:10.000 That's a bigger block.

01:59:11.000 That's like nine blocks together.

01:59:12.000 You could start, on the metaverse, you could start a Rogan land where nobody has to take a vaccine.

01:59:19.000 Boom! 0.99

01:59:20.000 But this isn't even real life.

01:59:22.000 I'm so confused.

01:59:23.000 This is real life.

01:59:24.000 It's what real life's becoming.

01:59:25.000 What's happening in that, Joe, just like for something you might understand, which sort of showed right there, that very beginning part, what can happen in the sandbox is like Roblox.

01:59:35.000 So you can develop a game in your space and people can come play it and then they can give you money to play it.

01:59:41.000 Or hang out?

01:59:42.000 Or watch the concert you're hosting?

01:59:44.000 What if you owned...

01:59:45.000 You could start your own country, essentially, in the metaverse.

01:59:48.000 You buy up all this digital real estate.

01:59:49.000 And then what if Gavin Newsom ran for governor of it, won, and destroyed it? 1.00

01:59:54.000 He'd be fucking you twice. 1.00

01:59:57.000 In the real world and in the metaverse. 0.99

02:00:00.000 No, but you've got to get involved in this, man.

02:00:01.000 I'm telling you.

02:00:02.000 This is the future.

02:00:03.000 Yeah, Atari is invested in here.

02:00:05.000 This is Snoop's little plot down here, but all these green areas are owned by other people.

02:00:09.000 I'm getting the plot.

02:00:09.000 Do you have a plot?

02:00:10.000 This is where?

02:00:11.000 What is this?

02:00:12.000 This would be the sandbox metaverse.

02:00:14.000 So there's metaverses?

02:00:16.000 There'll be the Facebook metaverse?

02:00:17.000 For sure there's a ton of metaverses.

02:00:20.000 You can't afford to be in certain metaverses.

02:00:23.000 Certain metaverses you can.

02:00:24.000 Which one could I not afford to be in?

02:00:26.000 Not you specifically, but I'm talking about regular people like myself.

02:00:29.000 I don't know that I can afford this metaverse.

02:00:32.000 But I'm going to start in another metaverse and work hard.

02:00:38.000 Listen, the country's over.

02:00:40.000 Have a little fun. 0.96

02:00:42.000 In 20 years, there's people on the streets with guns dragging you out of your house and killing you.

02:00:47.000 You might as well have a little fun.

02:00:49.000 Do you feel more freedom when you do your wild rants with aviator sunglasses on?

02:00:53.000 Yeah, well, you know what it was?

02:00:54.000 We're doing it because the lights were burning my eyes.

02:00:57.000 We had this little studio, but now the studio's bigger, so I don't wear them as much.

02:01:00.000 I feel like there's something about you wearing them that makes it more fun.

02:01:03.000 I like them.

02:01:03.000 I like them with the hat.

02:01:04.000 I think it's fun, yeah.

02:01:04.000 You're freer.

02:01:06.000 Yeah.

02:01:06.000 Like, you're protected.

02:01:08.000 You can say wild shit and no one can see your pupils. 1.00

02:01:10.000 Yeah, because it's not me. 1.00

02:01:11.000 I have shades on.

02:01:13.000 We're cutting this digital real estate clip, and I'm going to put it out online.

02:01:17.000 Don't start any problems.

02:01:19.000 So these metaverses, there'll be many, many metaverses.

02:01:23.000 Oh, for sure.

02:01:23.000 So we could start a JRE metaverse.

02:01:25.000 Absolutely.

02:01:26.000 And what would we do with it?

02:01:28.000 We get the Weinsteins and Rhonda Patrick, Naval Ravikant.

02:01:31.000 And what do they do in there?

02:01:33.000 The same thing they do here. 1.00

02:01:34.000 Talk shit. 1.00

02:01:35.000 Interesting. 1.00

02:01:36.000 Just babble.

02:01:37.000 Interesting.

02:01:38.000 There will be a way to broadcast content a la YouTube, but it wouldn't be YouTube.

02:01:44.000 It can be YouTube maybe right now if that's how someone programmed it.

02:01:48.000 Broadcast content.

02:01:49.000 This is like creating new websites.

02:01:50.000 But you have to have a server, right?

02:01:52.000 So you have to pay for the server.

02:01:53.000 You would, but it wouldn't be going to, you know, wide open for everybody, because it's the only people that are accessing it, and then they're paying to access your thing, so it's paying for itself.

02:02:00.000 Jesus Christ.

02:02:01.000 I feel like I better get in on this before it gets far away from me.

02:02:04.000 I'm telling you, I know that it seems crazy, but young kids, they're digitally native.

02:02:09.000 They grow up online.

02:02:10.000 Digitally native.

02:02:11.000 That's a funny expression.

02:02:12.000 Jake Paul explained this entire thing to me, and this is why I know it.

02:02:15.000 Did he?

02:02:16.000 Yes.

02:02:16.000 He's like brilliant about this.

02:02:18.000 Really?

02:02:18.000 Yes.

02:02:20.000 I'm telling you.

02:02:21.000 He understands this better than anyone.

02:02:23.000 Really?

02:02:23.000 I'm telling you he does.

02:02:25.000 I believe you.

02:02:26.000 Young kids are digitally native.

02:02:28.000 Everything is online.

02:02:29.000 All of their prized possessions they'll own will eventually be online.

02:02:33.000 Their formative experiences are primarily online.

02:02:36.000 Their friendships are online.

02:02:39.000 You know, they're kind of living online already.

02:02:41.000 They just don't have an address.

02:02:43.000 So digital real estate's like that next step of like, why not have a badass house?

02:02:48.000 You can't afford a house now in America, and soon you won't be able to afford one in the metaverse.

02:02:54.000 The metaverse is Austin three years ago.

02:02:57.000 It's true.

02:02:59.000 So the metaverse, when you get into these digital spaces, it'll be like an increasingly more sophisticated version of virtual reality.

02:03:07.000 That's right.

02:03:07.000 As time goes on, it'll get better and better.

02:03:09.000 That's right.

02:03:10.000 That's right.

02:03:11.000 Wow.

02:03:11.000 So an NFT... Would be maybe something you have is like, people are like, whoa, look at that!

02:03:18.000 But you have to bank on the right metaverse. 0.98

02:03:21.000 Because if you bank on the blockbuster of metaverses, then you have all this stock in some bullshit ass metaverse and it goes away. 0.95

02:03:27.000 You gotta make good. 0.52

02:03:29.000 The average user will be like, you can get in free Facebook, we'll call it, it'd be like Pong, but there will be the Quake version that you would want to get into for 10, 15 bucks a month.

02:03:38.000 The Sandbox metaverse, is that the same company as Sandbox, the digital, the virtual reality company that I go to?

02:03:46.000 No.

02:03:46.000 No?

02:03:47.000 Why do they steal their name?

02:03:49.000 The Sandbox and Sandbox VR. Will there be a little St. James metaverse, like a little pedophile island metaverse?

02:03:56.000 Probably.

02:03:57.000 There has to be.

02:03:58.000 St. James, is that where his island is?

02:04:00.000 Little St. James, yeah.

02:04:00.000 Is that the name of his island?

02:04:01.000 Yeah, Little St. James, like a little pedophile island metaverse.

02:04:03.000 Is that island for sale?

02:04:04.000 Oh, for sure.

02:04:05.000 You think so?

02:04:06.000 I think, yeah.

02:04:07.000 I think there'd be a real problem to buy it, right?

02:04:09.000 Like, nobody wants to buy his ranch, apparently.

02:04:11.000 He has a giant ranch in New Mexico, and everybody's like, meh.

02:04:14.000 That apartment in New York City.

02:04:16.000 They got rid of that quick.

02:04:18.000 They dumped that quick. 0.99

02:04:19.000 Yeah, nobody gives a fuck. 0.99

02:04:20.000 That's like American Psycho. 0.99

02:04:21.000 That's right.

02:04:22.000 Remember when he...

02:04:23.000 Yeah.

02:04:23.000 Did you read the book?

02:04:24.000 Yeah, it's great.

02:04:25.000 It's like people just cleaning up bodies that he would leave behind.

02:04:28.000 Yeah. 1.00

02:04:28.000 And like, shut the fuck up. 1.00

02:04:29.000 We're trying to sell an apartment. 1.00

02:04:31.000 I think that...

02:04:33.000 I think it's all interesting, this stuff. 0.97

02:04:35.000 It is definitely interesting, because I didn't see it coming, so clearly I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. 0.98

02:04:41.000 And these guys, like that guy made $90 million, and Beeple made $100 million last year, and he's fucking balling out of control. 0.97

02:04:49.000 It's time to start going in that direction. 0.94

02:04:51.000 My Beeple drives a Corolla.

02:04:53.000 Yeah? 1.00

02:04:54.000 You should get a fucking Rolls Royce, right? 1.00

02:04:57.000 What do you have to earn before you get a Rolls Royce? 1.00

02:04:59.000 When do you step up?

02:05:01.000 I won't get anything in the physical world until I've set myself up in the metaverse.

02:05:05.000 Truly.

02:05:06.000 I mean, I want a mansion in the metaverse.

02:05:08.000 Who cares what anyone has in real life?

02:05:11.000 Real life is a distraction at best.

02:05:13.000 People are talking about traffic.

02:05:15.000 Things are falling apart.

02:05:16.000 The infrastructure is crumbling.

02:05:17.000 The metaverse is perfect and serene.

02:05:20.000 No more working out.

02:05:22.000 Well, in the metaverse, you can work out.

02:05:23.000 But there's no effort.

02:05:25.000 It's not hard.

02:05:26.000 What do you mean?

02:05:27.000 You won't be struggling because you won't have real exercise.

02:05:31.000 Struggle's where you find it.

02:05:33.000 But I mean, exercise, like heart rate increasing.

02:05:36.000 Heart?

02:05:37.000 Yeah.

02:05:37.000 The metaverse will provide.

02:05:40.000 So will you download your consciousness into a computer?

02:05:44.000 100%.

02:05:45.000 Really?

02:05:46.000 I think we've got to start doing this very soon.

02:05:48.000 What did Alex Jones say?

02:05:50.000 Get rid of your body for the golden silicon gods. 0.88

02:05:53.000 Yeah, that's what he said.

02:05:54.000 I anticipate one day visiting Tim.

02:05:58.000 And Tim is 90 feet tall.

02:06:01.000 He's wearing a golden crown.

02:06:02.000 That's right.

02:06:03.000 And a diaper.

02:06:15.000 Yes.

02:06:19.000 I'm telling you right now, you're at the tail end of the physical world mattering.

02:06:24.000 What's this?

02:06:25.000 This is an episode of Black Mirror that was maybe season one or two.

02:06:29.000 It's called 15 Million Merits.

02:06:31.000 But essentially, this kid wakes up in our room, all screens, and he spends his day riding a bicycle on treadmills earning money so they can do stuff in this fake world that they live in.

02:06:43.000 And right now there's a push in games, a new level of games calling play to earn games, which you're going to be making money, most likely a cryptocurrency that you can then spend on...

02:06:57.000 In theory, whatever.

02:06:58.000 Look at Minecraft.

02:06:59.000 I mean, those kids play Minecraft all day.

02:07:01.000 They've created these crazy, big, huge...

02:07:04.000 I mean, they have millions of people watching them, and they've created these worlds.

02:07:08.000 I mean, this is just...

02:07:09.000 I used to dismiss gaming, but it's much more substantive than I had imagined.

02:07:15.000 Have you started to come to this opinion about NFTs and this metaverse?

02:07:20.000 Have you started to come to this slowly?

02:07:23.000 Was there an awakening moment?

02:07:24.000 What made you realize that this is the future?

02:07:27.000 I think it's slowly, but I just believe, for example, I dismiss gaming as this adolescent thing, but it's truly not.

02:07:33.000 Especially if you look at the movies and TV that we're making right now, the vast majority of it isn't checking the boxes that people want it to.

02:07:40.000 And then you have these games Where these crazy like interactive games, these thriving communities that are built that are much more substantive than I have imagined and they have drama and they have excitement and they have all these things, these story arcs and everything that are much more complex than I had initially imagined.

02:07:56.000 I was overly dismissive of those online communities.

02:07:59.000 I think in the same way that a lot of people are overly dismissive of what's going on right now.

02:08:05.000 We're already doing it.

02:08:07.000 That's the thing.

02:08:07.000 We're already kind of living online.

02:08:09.000 This is what I don't think people realize.

02:08:11.000 I don't think it's this massive jump.

02:08:13.000 I think it's going to be much more immersive, but I think we're already almost...

02:08:19.000 When's the last...

02:08:19.000 Most people are talking about things they see online.

02:08:22.000 Most people are...

02:08:23.000 That's driving the conversation.

02:08:25.000 I don't think it's a far cry to suggest that...

02:08:29.000 You know, we're in a metaverse of sorts already.

02:08:32.000 Well, something has to be done to stop online censorship.

02:08:35.000 Maybe something decentralized and something that is controlled, you know, in this way.

02:08:44.000 Well, that's why you joined Morgan Wallen's metaverse.

02:08:46.000 Who?

02:08:47.000 Morgan Wallen.

02:08:48.000 The guy who screamed the N-word in his driveway, the country singer.

02:08:51.000 Morgan Wallen?

02:08:52.000 You don't know about this?

02:08:52.000 No.

02:08:53.000 This was a while ago.

02:08:53.000 Do you know who he is?

02:08:54.000 You do?

02:08:55.000 Of course.

02:08:55.000 Why'd he scream it?

02:08:57.000 I think he was kidding.

02:08:58.000 Oh.

02:08:59.000 But all of this stuff eventually, hopefully, increases the amount of freedom people have that everything isn't centralized, mainframe, like a controlled, top-down paramilitary thing.

02:09:14.000 Hopefully.

02:09:15.000 Hopefully.

02:09:16.000 That's the hope.

02:09:17.000 But if not, LOL. If not, then it's going to be controlled by the Bitcoin people.

02:09:22.000 But something's got to be done to stop what's happening now, the trend of online censorship that's controlled by these massive tech companies.

02:09:30.000 And if something could disrupt that, if that could be done through blockchain, if that could be done through the metaverse, then I'm in.

02:09:37.000 Well, listen, I should be the first person that thinks outside the box, because if it wasn't for outside the box, I wouldn't have the number one podcast in the world, right?

02:09:44.000 If that happened out of nowhere.

02:09:46.000 I'm stunned that mine is bigger technically.

02:09:49.000 If you look at the numbers, but I don't want to interrupt you.

02:09:52.000 It is bigger.

02:09:55.000 It should be bigger.

02:09:56.000 How about that?

02:09:56.000 If you look at the numbers.

02:09:57.000 I find it more enjoyable than mine.

02:09:58.000 I'm surprised that you're not all over this stuff already, because you've always been the guy that's ahead of things by leaps and bounds.

02:10:06.000 It's because there's too many shady people that are offering it up to me.

02:10:08.000 Well, in the beginning of everything, there's a lot of shady people, but that, you know, things shake out, and those people, you know...

02:10:15.000 In the beginning of any Wild West environment where you don't have a ton of regulation and things aren't well established is going to attract a certain type of person.

02:10:23.000 Brilliant.

02:10:23.000 Some of them visionaries.

02:10:24.000 Some of them great. 0.55

02:10:25.000 Some of them criminals.

02:10:27.000 Some of them...

02:10:27.000 And eventually the cream rises to the top.

02:10:31.000 But I like doing so many things in the real world.

02:10:34.000 You're way too into the real world.

02:10:37.000 You're into lakes and rivers. 1.00

02:10:38.000 That shit sucks. 1.00

02:10:39.000 No one cares. 1.00

02:10:41.000 It's gay. 1.00

02:10:42.000 The reality is the metaverse is better. 0.99

02:10:46.000 People don't care about hunting deer in a volcano or whatever you do.

02:10:49.000 They're all 900 pounds and they're hooked up to tubes to just live.

02:10:53.000 Let them enjoy the metaverse. 0.93

02:10:55.000 You'll always get to take your dumb trips with your friends and you guys can run around. 0.98

02:11:00.000 I'm gonna stay. 0.99

02:11:01.000 I'm gonna put all my money in wood chips.

02:11:08.000 We're always going to need pellets to fuel the Traegers.

02:11:10.000 Yeah.

02:11:11.000 I mean, perhaps.

02:11:12.000 Yeah.

02:11:12.000 It's just interesting stuff, man.

02:11:14.000 Maybe I just spent a few days too long in Miami.

02:11:17.000 You might have.

02:11:17.000 That's also possible.

02:11:18.000 That's possible.

02:11:19.000 You might need to just decompress it.

02:11:20.000 Every day we talked about this from breakfast through 3 a.m.

02:11:24.000 Yeah?

02:11:24.000 And I'm sober.

02:11:25.000 Really?

02:11:25.000 Yeah, I'm sober.

02:11:26.000 This is at Art Basel?

02:11:27.000 I know you are.

02:11:27.000 Yeah.

02:11:28.000 But this is at Art Basel?

02:11:29.000 Yeah.

02:11:29.000 This is what people are talking about.

02:11:30.000 Should I go there next year?

02:11:31.000 It's really cool.

02:11:33.000 You did enjoy it?

02:11:33.000 I loved it.

02:11:34.000 Yeah.

02:11:35.000 It was a really fun- It's fun!

02:11:38.000 Was it hard for you to move around?

02:11:39.000 Did people swarm you?

02:11:41.000 No, they didn't swarm me, but- You get swarmed, now I've seen it.

02:11:45.000 The Gary Vee party, they let me in.

02:11:46.000 Why'd they let you in the Gary Vee party?

02:11:48.000 Well, because one of the guys goes, oh, we love you, you're a legend, and they let me in.

02:11:51.000 Did Gary Vee find out you were there and kick you out?

02:11:52.000 No, I think he has a sense of humor.

02:11:54.000 Do you think so?

02:11:55.000 I think so.

02:11:56.000 But didn't he try to ban some of the things you did?

02:11:58.000 No, that was my conspiracy, thinking that he did.

02:12:00.000 I was walking around that party scared.

02:12:03.000 I had two of my friends with me.

02:12:05.000 And I was looking around.

02:12:06.000 I'm like, where is he?

02:12:07.000 Where's he going?

02:12:08.000 I thought he was going to descend from the ceiling.

02:12:10.000 I was a little scared.

02:12:11.000 But it was very sweet of his people.

02:12:13.000 I'm going to sit down with him because I'm curious about funding a movie in crypto.

02:12:17.000 So I want to sit down with him.

02:12:18.000 You're going to sit down with Gary Vee?

02:12:20.000 He's supposedly open to him.

02:12:22.000 Is he the guy to fund a movie and crypto with?

02:12:25.000 No, but he knows a lot about this world, about NFTs and stuff.

02:12:27.000 And I've made fun of some of the advice he's given because it's a little wacky.

02:12:30.000 Like what?

02:12:31.000 Well, he's just said, you know, crazy things.

02:12:33.000 Like, kindness is delicious.

02:12:35.000 And things like that, which...

02:12:38.000 Again, as a comedian, you'd have to make fun of some of the advice he's given, which is very vague.

02:12:45.000 Well, he puts out a lot of content.

02:12:46.000 Yeah, and some of it's good, great, but some of it's vague.

02:12:49.000 I've made fun of the things that are vague.

02:12:50.000 When he goes, you could talk about it or you could be about it, but I'd do both.

02:12:53.000 And you go, what?

02:12:54.000 So, things like that, I just don't...

02:12:57.000 There's probably a method to the madness there.

02:13:01.000 But he's a good father and a good guy and he's made money for his family.

02:13:05.000 He's not a bad guy.

02:13:06.000 Not a bad person.

02:13:06.000 He's not a bad guy.

02:13:07.000 I gotta go back into this.

02:13:10.000 You see how I'm kind of trying to...

02:13:11.000 I gotta angle back into this.

02:13:13.000 I see.

02:13:14.000 I gotta angle back in.

02:13:15.000 Right, right, right.

02:13:16.000 You see, it's like...

02:13:17.000 Well, you can have initial impressions about someone.

02:13:19.000 Well, no.

02:13:20.000 Some of what he said is, as a comedian, your job is to make fun of crazy stuff.

02:13:25.000 And when somebody does something that's crazy, you've got to make fun of it.

02:13:28.000 And, you know, even this NFT stuff, I make fun of it because a lot of it's silly, but I do think that the world has to change.

02:13:35.000 People have to stop going outside.

02:13:37.000 Forever?

02:13:38.000 For a while.

02:13:40.000 Until what?

02:13:42.000 Until they realize their needs are met on the metaverse.

02:13:45.000 Are we gonna just become integrated?

02:13:48.000 Is that the future?

02:13:50.000 Well, that's your whole thing, right?

02:13:51.000 You've always believed that.

02:13:53.000 But I was hoping it would take a little longer.

02:13:56.000 I know, but I'm ready now!

02:13:59.000 The rest of us are ready now!

02:14:01.000 I think we're gonna be cyborgs, for sure.

02:14:04.000 But do you think this happens first, then the cyborg part?

02:14:07.000 It's creepy and wild, but I do believe that this is, you know, unfortunately, or fortunately, this is the inevitable reality.

02:14:20.000 I don't know how to deal with that.

02:14:21.000 There's too much inertia moving it to that direction, you know?

02:14:25.000 Yeah.

02:14:25.000 Young kids already are...

02:14:27.000 Their formative experiences, the things they value, are online-based.

02:14:36.000 You know?

02:14:37.000 The interactions they have, the friendships they've built, the communities they're a part of, the information they get...

02:14:45.000 The social arrangements they have, a lot of it is online.

02:14:49.000 A lot of the prized possessions they will own are online.

02:14:53.000 And that's where NFTs come in.

02:14:55.000 It's not only digital art, but it's, you know, it's kind of anything that people, the concept of digital ownership.

02:15:00.000 It's just like you owning that cool crystal skull.

02:15:04.000 Or, you know...

02:15:06.000 Brass.

02:15:07.000 Brass.

02:15:07.000 Or, you know, any of the things that you own that you go, this is a really cool thing that I own.

02:15:13.000 People are going to do that online.

02:15:16.000 Hmm.

02:15:17.000 I should be more open to this, because obviously- It's crazy that I'm even convincing you of this.

02:15:23.000 You're not.

02:15:24.000 I'm just going along with it. 1.00

02:15:25.000 As soon as I leave, I'm going to go, fuck it out of your mind. 1.00

02:15:29.000 That's your- I'm telling you- I'm going to play with my dog. 1.00

02:15:31.000 You said I was wrong about Clubhouse, and now it's the biggest app in the world.

02:15:35.000 Ah!

02:15:38.000 Yeah, you were definitely wrong about Clubhouse.

02:15:40.000 I was wrong about Clubhouse.

02:15:42.000 Tell me I didn't call that.

02:15:43.000 I was wrong about Clubhouse.

02:15:44.000 You called that.

02:15:45.000 You called that.

02:15:46.000 Andrew Schultz and you called Clubhouse.

02:15:49.000 Well, I was like, this is a bad podcast.

02:15:51.000 It's horrible.

02:15:53.000 Yeah, it's a podcast.

02:15:54.000 Somebody said it was a podcast with hecklers, and they were right.

02:15:56.000 It's horrible.

02:15:57.000 Well, once Brett Weinstein got kicked out of that room, and they kicked everybody out of that room that started, and they started calling everybody racist, I was like, whoa.

02:16:04.000 Yeah.

02:16:05.000 Like, what is this?

02:16:06.000 But I think these ideas have a lot more merit than an app, obviously.

02:16:10.000 Like, I think this is just seemingly, you know...

02:16:13.000 Well, I think that Clubhouse was great for what it was at the time, which was, like, people got stuck.

02:16:18.000 But anyone you meet in real life from Clubhouse, it's, like, terrifying.

02:16:22.000 When you're, like, Leigh Lamar, like, she... 0.59

02:16:26.000 She's like the queen of Clubhouse. 1.00

02:16:29.000 Yeah, I guess.

02:16:30.000 Is she still on it?

02:16:31.000 I don't know.

02:16:32.000 I haven't been on it in months.

02:16:33.000 If you go to Clubhouse now, are there people there?

02:16:35.000 I was actually just...

02:16:36.000 It's moved over to Twitter now, Twitter Spaces.

02:16:39.000 Yeah, Clubhouse is like dead.

02:16:40.000 They stole it?

02:16:41.000 It's the same thing.

02:16:42.000 It's the same thing.

02:16:43.000 How is it the same thing?

02:16:43.000 You talk on Twitter?

02:16:44.000 You can just talk on Twitter.

02:16:45.000 Wait a minute, on Twitter Spaces you can have phone calls?

02:16:47.000 You can do the thing, but no one cares anymore.

02:16:50.000 Really?

02:16:50.000 Yeah.

02:16:51.000 So when did it move over to Twitter Spaces?

02:16:54.000 But how many followers does Leia have on the clubhouse? 0.99

02:17:00.000 She was up to a couple hundred thousand, right?

02:17:04.000 That was way bigger than any of her other platforms.

02:17:06.000 She was in an NFT discussion.

02:17:09.000 I just started checking it out to be like, is this exactly a clubhouse?

02:17:12.000 Maybe I'm wrong. 1.00

02:17:13.000 It is bullshit. 0.99

02:17:15.000 Will there be comedy? 1.00

02:17:17.000 Will there be comedy in the metaverse?

02:17:19.000 Yes, there'll be everything.

02:17:20.000 Everything that's here, you'd have there.

02:17:21.000 All the entertainment, you know?

02:17:24.000 Bands?

02:17:25.000 Yeah, why not?

02:17:26.000 I don't know.

02:17:27.000 Something about watching really old rock stars dance on the stage for their last time.

02:17:31.000 I saw the Stones live in person.

02:17:34.000 Yeah.

02:17:34.000 It wouldn't be the same if I saw them in the metaverse.

02:17:36.000 To you, because you grew up without it.

02:17:38.000 The people that are growing up with only the metaverse will only know the metaverse.

02:17:43.000 Jesus, dude.

02:17:44.000 It's a heavy ship, but it's true.

02:17:45.000 I didn't expect this from you.

02:17:47.000 Well, you know, I'm a raconteur.

02:17:49.000 You're a salesperson.

02:17:50.000 A raconteur.

02:17:51.000 I'm trying to get a large sum of money from people so we can start a crypto island off the coast of Miami.

02:17:57.000 Off the coast of Miami?

02:17:58.000 There's islands?

02:17:59.000 Yeah, we're going to buy an island.

02:18:00.000 It's not going to be a pedophile run.

02:18:02.000 It's going to be run with crypto, which is even worse.

02:18:05.000 What if the Chinese invade your island? 0.99

02:18:07.000 They're not going to.

02:18:08.000 They might.

02:18:09.000 They're not going to invade my island.

02:18:09.000 What if they don't trust you?

02:18:10.000 They're going to trust me.

02:18:12.000 Really?

02:18:12.000 It's going to be their island, too.

02:18:14.000 Because it's not gonna be real.

02:18:17.000 It's just going to be a location in the metaverse.

02:18:19.000 You keep thinking about invasions.

02:18:21.000 I'm more worried about digital attacks.

02:18:23.000 From aliens?

02:18:24.000 From anybody.

02:18:25.000 I mean, that's a good point.

02:18:26.000 Can you attack a metaverse?

02:18:29.000 You must be able to if it's on a server somewhere.

02:18:31.000 For sure.

02:18:32.000 And that's more what I'd worry about.

02:18:34.000 I'm worried about some crazy 13-year-old kid who's a super genius who's going to hack into it for a goof to impress his friends on TikTok.

02:18:41.000 I'm just saying that I am all in on this.

02:18:46.000 Jesus.

02:18:46.000 I'm all in on this.

02:18:47.000 She's at $264,000.

02:18:48.000 That's where she's at?

02:18:49.000 Yeah.

02:18:50.000 $9,000 on Twitter.

02:18:52.000 Yeah, that's...

02:18:53.000 Well, that's...

02:18:53.000 That's it.

02:18:54.000 That's what I'm saying.

02:18:55.000 That's it.

02:18:55.000 You see the difference?

02:18:56.000 On her Twitter, it says, like, X Clubhouse something.

02:18:59.000 X Clubhouse?

02:19:00.000 Well, I just...

02:19:00.000 Yeah.

02:19:01.000 She's no longer on Clubhouse?

02:19:03.000 X Clubhouse icon.

02:19:04.000 Oh, she's not a Clubhouse icon anymore?

02:19:06.000 I tried to open up the app and when you go to it, it says air loading stuff.

02:19:10.000 Oh, it's dead.

02:19:11.000 It's pretty dead.

02:19:12.000 Did Clubhouse die?

02:19:13.000 Oh, it's dead.

02:19:14.000 Really?

02:19:14.000 I don't know if it's officially dead, but it's dead.

02:19:17.000 Duval and I were on the phone.

02:19:18.000 He was trying to convince me that he couldn't invest.

02:19:21.000 He goes, I would like a bigger position in it.

02:19:23.000 I want to spend more money on it.

02:19:24.000 And I'm listening to him.

02:19:25.000 I'm like, I thought he was smart.

02:19:27.000 Right.

02:19:28.000 His advice is so good.

02:19:30.000 He's one of my favorite advice guys ever because it's so clear and succinct.

02:19:35.000 So him telling me about Clubhouse, I'm like, do you have a podcast?

02:19:38.000 Because if you don't have a podcast, you should get one. 0.98

02:19:39.000 And then if you had one, I think you'd look at Clubhouse and go, what the fuck is this?

02:19:43.000 I was caught up, I think, in a pandemic frenzy, an insane thing where you were like, oh, this is fun and cool, but then it ended. 0.81

02:19:55.000 Well, when you and I were on that one time, and then the head guy from Clubhouse jumped on it with us, and then I was like, what's to stop people from uploading this?

02:20:02.000 They won't.

02:20:02.000 It was online five minutes later on YouTube.

02:20:05.000 I'm like, this is not a...

02:20:06.000 That's also the problem.

02:20:08.000 Yeah, people are uploading it. 0.99

02:20:10.000 Yep, it's a country of rats. 1.00

02:20:11.000 Fucking rats. 1.00

02:20:12.000 What are you going to do? 1.00

02:20:13.000 It is a country of rats. 1.00

02:20:14.000 It's a country of rats. 1.00

02:20:15.000 There's a lot of real benefit in being a rat today. 0.99

02:20:19.000 There's a huge benefit in it.

02:20:21.000 That didn't always used to be the case.

02:20:22.000 No.

02:20:23.000 We didn't like rats.

02:20:24.000 Yeah.

02:20:25.000 But now everybody wants to, you know, everybody wants to shine a light on something.

02:20:35.000 So if they hear that you at a conversation clubhouse, they're like, and it gives them value as a human being to be the person that uploaded that.

02:20:44.000 They want to make a little money, you know, there's equity in it. 0.94

02:20:50.000 There's equity in being the rat.

02:20:52.000 But listen, is not your favorite thing going to a place, showing up at a sold-out theater, and rocking the house?

02:20:59.000 It's in the top ten.

02:21:01.000 What's number one?

02:21:02.000 No, I love comedy.

02:21:04.000 Comedy is great.

02:21:05.000 It's the best.

02:21:06.000 But doing a great podcast is good, too.

02:21:09.000 I'm telling you, I got into the pandemic.

02:21:12.000 I love live comedy.

02:21:13.000 But when I do a really good podcast, I go, that's really funny.

02:21:16.000 And I look at Ben and I go, that's really great.

02:21:18.000 And it's going to be seen by however many people.

02:21:20.000 And there's no cap.

02:21:22.000 Whereas a theater, there's a cap.

02:21:23.000 And the amazing thing of live experience is...

02:21:26.000 There's a finite amount of people in there and the show's gonna be different every time.

02:21:30.000 When you do something great digitally that you can put out and so many people are gonna enjoy it, I mean, I like that too.

02:21:36.000 But there's the feeling of being there live.

02:21:39.000 Yes.

02:21:39.000 That I love the most.

02:21:40.000 It's a shot of heroin.

02:21:42.000 But the podcast is a slow-release Vyvanse as opposed to a line of Adderall.

02:21:47.000 Do you have physical things?

02:21:49.000 Are you a guy, like if I went over to your house, do you have a lot of art?

02:21:52.000 No.

02:21:52.000 Do you have nothing?

02:21:53.000 Not a lot of things.

02:21:54.000 Do you have a TV, a nice TV? Yeah, shit like that, but I don't care. 0.99

02:21:58.000 You don't care? 1.00

02:21:59.000 No, I don't.

02:21:59.000 You don't own any jewelry or anything?

02:22:01.000 No, no, no.

02:22:01.000 No nice watches?

02:22:02.000 No, I bought a Range Rover.

02:22:03.000 I sold it.

02:22:04.000 Because of the supply chain, I sold it immediately.

02:22:06.000 The Range Rover you got rid of?

02:22:08.000 Yeah, I got rid of it because I got rid of it.

02:22:09.000 So what are you driving?

02:22:10.000 Right now, I don't have a car.

02:22:11.000 I rented a Suburban.

02:22:12.000 You don't have a car?

02:22:13.000 You are all in on this.

02:22:15.000 I rented a Suburban.

02:22:16.000 Really?

02:22:17.000 I was on the road for three months.

02:22:18.000 I said, because of the supply chain right now, I can get rid of the Range Rover for almost what I paid.

02:22:23.000 Really?

02:22:23.000 Just get rid of it.

02:22:24.000 You don't need it.

02:22:25.000 They break.

02:22:27.000 Yeah, they break.

02:22:27.000 It's whatever.

02:22:28.000 Did Joyce break?

02:22:29.000 The seat broke, like one of the massage things in it.

02:22:31.000 It's usually electric stuff.

02:22:33.000 Yeah!

02:22:33.000 It's always a problem.

02:22:35.000 And I was just like, I don't need a car that's that much money.

02:22:37.000 It's fine.

02:22:38.000 Wow.

02:22:38.000 Let's get rid of it.

02:22:39.000 Interesting.

02:22:40.000 I'd rather have the money to buy property In the digital world.

02:22:44.000 Oh, if anybody wants to buy one, I think Ron Weitz is for sale, too.

02:22:47.000 I think he's selling one.

02:22:48.000 He goes, well, I got two of them.

02:22:50.000 I'm going to sell one.

02:22:52.000 I like experiences more than things.

02:22:54.000 Yes, that's why I like live comedy.

02:22:56.000 Yeah, I like live comedy, too.

02:22:58.000 But I think putting something out online and having people enjoy it from all over the world or whatever is cool.

02:23:04.000 It is cool, but both are cool.

02:23:05.000 Yeah.

02:23:06.000 Oh, they're both cool.

02:23:07.000 Yeah.

02:23:08.000 For sure.

02:23:08.000 I just...

02:23:09.000 I don't know.

02:23:11.000 I see what you're saying.

02:23:12.000 Yeah.

02:23:12.000 But obviously I'm resisting it, whether it's logical or illogical.

02:23:15.000 There's a part of me that's going...

02:23:17.000 I don't like it.

02:23:19.000 Yeah.

02:23:20.000 I understand that you're an IRL guy.

02:23:24.000 You're a real life guy.

02:23:25.000 An IRL guy?

02:23:26.000 Yeah, but the reality is the future is digital.

02:23:31.000 And me and my friends in Miami are going to make a very good world.

02:23:36.000 So you should just...

02:23:38.000 Get involved now.

02:23:39.000 Get in on the ground floor.

02:23:40.000 Maybe I'll go with you 12 months from now.

02:23:42.000 Come to Art Basel.

02:23:43.000 I'll book some gigs around it.

02:23:44.000 Book a gig.

02:23:45.000 It'll be really fun.

02:23:46.000 You can talk to all these people.

02:23:47.000 What time is it?

02:23:48.000 When was it?

02:23:49.000 It was three weeks ago I went.

02:23:50.000 December.

02:23:51.000 Early December?

02:23:53.000 Yeah, you stayed the Four Seasons down there.

02:23:54.000 They got a great restaurant.

02:23:56.000 You go to all the things.

02:23:58.000 It's fun.

02:23:59.000 In June, there's an Art Basel.

02:24:03.000 June.

02:24:03.000 Oh, there's another one?

02:24:04.000 Well, you know what?

02:24:04.000 You should come to the Crypto Conference.

02:24:06.000 I'm doing a comedy show at the Crypto Conference in Miami.

02:24:11.000 I did a live podcast last year with the Winklevoss twins and Jake Paul.

02:24:14.000 I'm doing a live comedy show.

02:24:17.000 There this year, plus a podcast.

02:24:19.000 So, a live comedy show with people?

02:24:22.000 Yeah.

02:24:22.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:24:23.000 No, there's people.

02:24:24.000 The one in June's in Switzerland.

02:24:25.000 Yeah, December is difficult.

02:24:27.000 December 1st.

02:24:28.000 But you could come to that.

02:24:29.000 I mean, we can't afford you.

02:24:30.000 We were going to book people that we could afford, but...

02:24:33.000 Well, I don't have to get paid.

02:24:34.000 I'll just show up.

02:24:34.000 Well, you could do that.

02:24:36.000 We're going to go back.

02:24:37.000 It's a lot of fun.

02:24:39.000 And when you do your live show, are you going to a theater?

02:24:43.000 Like, what are you doing?

02:24:43.000 Oh yeah, it's a convention center.

02:24:45.000 That's what we did the podcast last year.

02:24:47.000 So you did the podcast there last year in front of a live audience?

02:24:50.000 Have you done that before?

02:24:52.000 No, this is the first time I did it.

02:24:54.000 I think it was the second or third time I did it.

02:24:56.000 I've done it three times.

02:24:57.000 Because generally you don't have guests in your podcast.

02:24:59.000 For sure.

02:25:00.000 But occasionally you do.

02:25:01.000 You feel a lot of pressure to be funny with the live crowd.

02:25:03.000 Right.

02:25:04.000 So I think it makes it really fun in the moment, but to listen back to it, you actually would rather it not be live.

02:25:10.000 Especially if it's a conversation.

02:25:12.000 Live podcasts to listen to suck, but to be at them, they're very fun. 0.77

02:25:16.000 Yeah, it's a different feel when you're listening to them. 0.98

02:25:18.000 That's right.

02:25:19.000 Yeah.

02:25:20.000 So you have like, we had Jake Paul come in who talked about fighting, boxing, NFTs.

02:25:27.000 He's been saying that he's suffering from slurring words and loss of memory already.

02:25:31.000 Yeah, that's not...

02:25:32.000 I mean, you know more about that than me.

02:25:34.000 That's not great.

02:25:34.000 It doesn't take long.

02:25:35.000 It doesn't take long if you spar a lot.

02:25:36.000 You get a few shots. 0.99

02:25:38.000 He's fucking good, though. 0.99

02:25:40.000 He's really good. 0.98

02:25:41.000 Like, people want to pretend he's not because he's a YouTube guy. 0.99

02:25:43.000 The way he knocked out Tyron Woodley, that is fucking skillful. 0.97

02:25:47.000 No, he knows what he's doing. 1.00

02:25:47.000 He's got real fucking power. 1.00

02:25:48.000 And he works hard. 1.00

02:25:50.000 Meanwhile, all the fucking casuals are thinking it's fake. 0.99

02:25:53.000 Yeah, people were saying it was... 0.99

02:25:54.000 There was a TikTok saying that it was staged, but it's...

02:25:57.000 Yeah, they were saying there's a tell because he moves his hand and he's like saying, here comes the big right hand, I'm going to hit you.

02:26:03.000 Yeah, it's... 0.97

02:26:04.000 No, it's silly.

02:26:05.000 I think that...

02:26:07.000 But it was fun.

02:26:08.000 We had him and then the Winklevoss twins who were those crypto billionaires, the Facebook guys, and they were cool.

02:26:14.000 So we'll be back this year.

02:26:16.000 Interesting.

02:26:16.000 Yeah.

02:26:17.000 So you have become an integral part of that community.

02:26:20.000 Well, I'm not integral in the community at all.

02:26:22.000 Well, I did that little wallet trailer as a joke, that film.

02:26:25.000 What is that?

02:26:25.000 I did a trailer of a fake crypto movie of one of these movies.

02:26:32.000 Oh, I need to see this.

02:26:33.000 Was gonna be made...

02:26:34.000 You've never seen it?

02:26:36.000 No.

02:26:36.000 It has like 3 million views.

02:26:37.000 Well, now it'll be 3 million and one.

02:26:39.000 Retweeted by everyone in the community.

02:26:42.000 In the crypto community.

02:26:43.000 Here we go.

02:26:43.000 It was like a...

02:26:44.000 This was the type of movie that Hollywood was gonna make about Bitcoin.

02:26:47.000 The following preview has been approved for appropriate audiences by Motion Picture Association.

02:26:51.000 I think we mentioned it before.

02:26:55.000 Tommy, I called you to talk about dad and money.

02:26:58.000 Dad owns a hundred biddle coins and he's got them in a wallet on the internet.

02:27:03.000 The wallet's the internet? 0.99

02:27:04.000 What the fuck are you talking about? 0.98

02:27:05.000 If we get the password, there's millions of dollars in there. 0.99

02:27:09.000 Elon Musk started a new type of money.

02:27:12.000 Who is Elon Musk?

02:27:13.000 He was an astronaut, Tommy.

02:27:18.000 Listen, Ma, Dad was into something here.

02:27:20.000 Is that a real quote? 1.00

02:27:21.000 Your father was a fucking clown. 1.00

02:27:24.000 We just gotta get that password. 1.00

02:27:26.000 Why don't you try fucking Susan? 1.00

02:27:28.000 That was his girlfriend's name. 1.00

02:27:30.000 That's not a bad idea.

02:27:31.000 That's his Tracy.

02:27:32.000 Come on.

02:27:33.000 We never had nothing growing up, but now we can have something.

02:27:37.000 Christ!

02:27:38.000 Christ! 1.00

02:27:39.000 Fuck you, you fucking loser! 1.00

02:27:40.000 What's the password? 1.00

02:27:41.000 What the fucking password? 1.00

02:27:44.000 Tommy, the central banks are fucking us! 1.00

02:27:47.000 It would change our fucking lives, Tommy. 1.00

02:27:55.000 I have $17, Timmy. 1.00

02:27:56.000 That's not good. 0.97

02:27:57.000 Yeah, big fucking surprise there. 1.00

02:27:59.000 Your father was a real class ass. 1.00

02:28:00.000 See, that's your quote. 0.99

02:28:01.000 It could've been okay, Tommy.

02:28:02.000 That's your quote.

02:28:03.000 I didn't know I quoted it.

02:28:04.000 We're trying to get the password.

02:28:08.000 So that got a lot of attention.

02:28:10.000 The wallet.

02:28:11.000 How about that guy that's been going through a dump for eight years because there's a half a billion dollars in Bitcoin in that dump?

02:28:18.000 It's such a funny idea, right?

02:28:19.000 The idea that somebody could do something, one good thing in their life financially and then throw it away.

02:28:26.000 And now for eight years he's been combing this dump.

02:28:29.000 What if it's not even in the dump?

02:28:32.000 I don't even know it's in the dump.

02:28:34.000 It's probably this thing that this has happened to a few people.

02:28:37.000 A guy I know died and his wife was looking into it. 0.98

02:28:40.000 So if he's going through that dump, how the fuck is he going to find it? 0.98

02:28:45.000 That, I don't know. 0.99

02:28:47.000 I think he's just looking for...

02:28:48.000 But it's a giant landfill.

02:28:50.000 Yeah, I don't know what he's looking for.

02:28:51.000 A needle in a haystack.

02:28:53.000 Yeah.

02:28:53.000 A literal needle in a haystack.

02:28:55.000 Well, if it's the kind of money that you would, right?

02:28:57.000 You'd spend the time doing it.

02:28:58.000 Well, not only that, there's got to be a lot of decomposition and moisture and the sheer biomass of all that garbage.

02:29:05.000 Oh, for sure. 0.91

02:29:07.000 Who knows what the fuck happened to that hard drive by the time he gets to it. 0.95

02:29:10.000 Oh, yeah. 0.99

02:29:10.000 But again, if it's $500 million, you're going to fucking look. 0.99

02:29:14.000 For eight years, it's been looking. 0.99

02:29:15.000 You're gonna look.

02:29:17.000 Why not?

02:29:19.000 Well, that's the thing.

02:29:20.000 That's a very funny, interesting thing.

02:29:26.000 And I'm sure that stuff will change where it'll maybe be easy to get in them.

02:29:30.000 Maybe not.

02:29:32.000 I don't know.

02:29:33.000 I don't know.

02:29:34.000 I don't know.

02:29:35.000 I don't know either.

02:29:36.000 I feel like one of those old men where the world has changed, and I'm like, what?

02:29:42.000 Email?

02:29:43.000 Yes. 0.99

02:29:43.000 The fuck is email? 0.99

02:29:44.000 You are kind of a little bit like that. 1.00

02:29:47.000 Send me a letter.

02:29:48.000 That's right.

02:29:48.000 Yeah.

02:29:50.000 But you can change.

02:29:53.000 The time is now.

02:29:54.000 You can change and you can start.

02:29:55.000 Or I just keep doing what I'm doing.

02:29:58.000 Maybe, but...

02:29:59.000 You don't think I should?

02:30:00.000 I think it's time to start your own coin.

02:30:03.000 What would I call it?

02:30:06.000 JRE coin?

02:30:06.000 Rogue coin?

02:30:08.000 Eh.

02:30:09.000 It's a little too on the nose.

02:30:10.000 It's not great.

02:30:10.000 JRE coin.

02:30:11.000 JRE coin.

02:30:12.000 Start a JRE coin.

02:30:14.000 And what do I do?

02:30:17.000 I think you just...

02:30:18.000 How many of them are there?

02:30:19.000 You get a bunch and then...

02:30:21.000 What does that mean?

02:30:22.000 Well, there's a set amount of them.

02:30:26.000 How?

02:30:26.000 How do I set it?

02:30:27.000 Well, Jamie, you know.

02:30:28.000 Can't he just start a coin?

02:30:29.000 No, I want you to tell me because you don't know.

02:30:31.000 No, I've never started a coin.

02:30:33.000 Of course I don't know.

02:30:33.000 I got 7,500 Bitcoin on a hard drive.

02:30:36.000 At 50k, that's $3 billion.

02:30:40.000 What?

02:30:41.000 Somebody lost that?

02:30:42.000 Yeah.

02:30:43.000 Who's that?

02:30:43.000 A different guy?

02:30:45.000 No, no.

02:30:45.000 I thought his was only worth a half a million.

02:30:47.000 If he started a coin, he'd come up with, like, what, 50,000 coins?

02:30:52.000 Oh, my God.

02:30:53.000 Half a billion Bitcoin lost in the dump.

02:30:57.000 Oh, my God.

02:30:59.000 I was just digging through another one.

02:31:00.000 It says a UK man had 700, yeah, mistakenly put a hard drive with 7,500 bitcoins in the trash.

02:31:07.000 Oh my god, that's way more, right?

02:31:10.000 I mean...

02:31:11.000 That's 230, 280 billion?

02:31:13.000 280 million.

02:31:15.000 He needs permission from his local council to search a garbage dump he believes contains the lost hardware. 1.00

02:31:20.000 He doesn't have the fucking... 0.98

02:31:21.000 That's the price though a year ago when it was way less. 0.99

02:31:24.000 But he doesn't have the permission.

02:31:25.000 Oh, yeah, well, good luck.

02:31:27.000 So this has happened many times.

02:31:29.000 So part of the Bitcoin thing, you know, there's a finite amount, and we don't know how many of them are lost.

02:31:32.000 So they're lost forever.

02:31:34.000 The ones that are lost forever are lost forever.

02:31:35.000 Yeah, they're lost forever.

02:31:35.000 Correct.

02:31:36.000 And that's what's good about it.

02:31:37.000 It's not fiat currency.

02:31:38.000 It can't keep getting printed every time we want to go to war or, you know, do a new program.

02:31:42.000 But if somebody grabs his hard drive, then they'll own his Bitcoin.

02:31:45.000 Like if somebody else combs through that dump, do they have to have the...

02:31:48.000 Yes? 0.99

02:31:49.000 Yeah, they got to have the password and shit. 0.99

02:31:51.000 They have to have the password. 0.99

02:31:51.000 They have to get in. 0.99

02:31:52.000 Then you only get—that's the joke of the thing.

02:31:55.000 There's like five chances to do it or three chances to do it or ten or whatever it is.

02:31:58.000 And what if a password or what if a hard drive burns in a fire?

02:32:03.000 Then the money's gone forever, like money burning in a fire.

02:32:07.000 Depending on what you did, there might be a way to access it as long as you still have the password because it's on the chain, not on the hard drive.

02:32:13.000 Jesus Christ.

02:32:13.000 Depending on exactly what it is, I don't want to get too far into it.

02:32:16.000 These questions I don't think are productive or helpful.

02:32:18.000 Right.

02:32:21.000 You just got to kind of get in here.

02:32:22.000 I mean, you know what I mean?

02:32:24.000 You know, when you tell someone to start working out, they don't go, what am I? Yeah, but you can hire a trainer and you can get to working out tomorrow.

02:32:31.000 And I have the trainers, crypto trainers in Miami for you.

02:32:35.000 We fly you right down.

02:32:36.000 We fly you right down.

02:32:38.000 This is me with a headache flying back.

02:32:40.000 I may or may not have promised people that you are starting a coin. 0.99

02:32:46.000 This is me flying back the same time next year going, fuck this. 0.99

02:32:50.000 I'm buying a log cabin on the top of a mountain. 0.99

02:32:54.000 Perhaps.

02:32:55.000 And I'm stockpiling food and bullets.

02:32:58.000 But there's no variance in the metaverse.

02:33:00.000 Oh. 1.00

02:33:01.000 What if you're sick while you're in your fucking house? 1.00

02:33:03.000 There's no Fauci in the metaverse. 1.00

02:33:05.000 There's no everything.

02:33:06.000 I'm telling you, no mandates in the metaverse, baby.

02:33:09.000 Yeah.

02:33:10.000 How does the story end for Fauci?

02:33:11.000 He's 80 years old.

02:33:12.000 How much longer is he going to stay alive?

02:33:14.000 A documentary that they've already made about him.

02:33:17.000 How about the book?

02:33:18.000 The real Anthony Fauci is the number one book in America right now.

02:33:21.000 Well, that's the hit piece, right?

02:33:23.000 But then there'll be another version of that that's a glowing thing.

02:33:27.000 Well, I think he's one of the reasons why they took the thumbs down off of YouTube.

02:33:31.000 Which is hilarious, by the way.

02:33:33.000 It will end for him the way it ends for everyone who has a public profile, right?

02:33:37.000 I mean, it's like, no one cares.

02:33:38.000 Well, anyone who's got a public profile that's in charge of the vaccines and public health and may have started up gain-of-function research and led to this whole pandemic in the first place.

02:33:51.000 His significance will be hotly debated.

02:33:53.000 Like in terms of like how how good or bad he was people debate that there'll be the people that look at him like Jesus and You know there'll be the people that say he's the devil Yeah, but I'm saying like how does it end?

02:34:09.000 Like this this Robert Kennedy book.

02:34:11.000 Yeah is the number one book in the country I haven't read it.

02:34:14.000 It's on Ben's somebody sent it to us, but I haven't read it Ben has it again, but it's not on any New York Times bestseller list Right?

02:34:22.000 No.

02:34:23.000 Which is hilarious.

02:34:23.000 I guess not.

02:34:24.000 I don't know.

02:34:24.000 Is it?

02:34:25.000 What's the New York Times bestseller list?

02:34:27.000 Like, if it's number one on Amazon, right?

02:34:30.000 That's what I heard.

02:34:31.000 Or it's the number one book in the country.

02:34:34.000 But is it on lists?

02:34:35.000 Is it on the bestseller list?

02:34:37.000 Or is it just number one?

02:34:39.000 No clue.

02:34:39.000 Number one, but off the list?

02:34:41.000 It might be number one on Amazon.

02:34:43.000 Okay.

02:34:44.000 Yeah.

02:34:44.000 Amazon charts number one this week, the real Anthony Fauci.

02:34:48.000 It's got 3,610 ratings on Amazon with five stars.

02:34:54.000 The real Anthony Fauci, Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the global war on democracy and public health, children's health defense, hardcover, November 16th.

02:35:02.000 So if this is the number one in America, what is the New York Times bestseller list?

02:35:11.000 Number one on Amazon and a New York Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and publishes weekly national bestsellers.

02:35:17.000 So it's a New York Times bestseller?

02:35:21.000 Go to the New York Times bestsellers list for today.

02:35:25.000 What's the list?

02:35:28.000 Bestsellers list.

02:35:29.000 Okay, let's see what it is.

02:35:31.000 Here it is.

02:35:34.000 Number one.

02:35:36.000 Call us what we carry.

02:35:37.000 Okay, we're going to go to nonfiction.

02:35:41.000 It's not there.

02:35:44.000 It's not there at all.

02:35:45.000 Well, because they're going to say it's fiction.

02:35:47.000 Stanley Tucci.

02:35:48.000 Like, look at this.

02:35:49.000 This is for next January 2nd, 2022, though, also.

02:35:53.000 Oh.

02:35:53.000 Go back to what they're so far ahead.

02:35:55.000 But how can it be January 22nd?

02:35:57.000 Pre-sales?

02:35:57.000 I don't know.

02:35:58.000 Okay, so.

02:35:59.000 What week are we in this one?

02:36:01.000 That's good.

02:36:03.000 But where is it?

02:36:05.000 Are they hiding it?

02:36:06.000 Hardcover nonfiction.

02:36:07.000 Click on that and see what's the full list because that's only showing you five.

02:36:13.000 So is there a number when you go down when it shows up?

02:36:16.000 They're real Anthony Fauci.

02:36:17.000 Number seven.

02:36:18.000 Interesting.

02:36:19.000 So it is there.

02:36:21.000 It's there.

02:36:21.000 But I wonder why it's not number one on Amazon.

02:36:25.000 There's something with the New York Times list where they weigh certain sales differently.

02:36:33.000 Oh.

02:36:34.000 You mean they rig it?

02:36:35.000 Yeah.

02:36:35.000 Well, but it's weird.

02:36:37.000 It's like somebody's explaining it to me.

02:36:40.000 I forget.

02:36:41.000 I think when you do Barnes& Noble and stores like that, the sales count less than they do for independent bookstores. 0.99

02:36:46.000 They've done a very good job of making that guy seem like he's out of his fucking mind. 0.99

02:36:49.000 Who? 0.99

02:36:50.000 Robert Kennedy Jr. Yeah, I don't know much about him.

02:36:53.000 I know that he has an issue that I believe he believes he got from a vaccine or something, a disease.

02:37:00.000 Is that what he says?

02:37:01.000 Is that?

02:37:02.000 I don't know.

02:37:02.000 I mean, I know he has an issue.

02:37:03.000 His voice is fucked. 0.99

02:37:05.000 So that's why I thought maybe that's why he was very passionate about vaccines. 1.00

02:37:08.000 I don't know.

02:37:09.000 Theo Vaughn had him on his podcast.

02:37:11.000 Oh, interesting.

02:37:11.000 Yeah.

02:37:12.000 I didn't listen to it, though.

02:37:15.000 Yeah.

02:37:15.000 I mean, I don't think he's against vaccines in general.

02:37:19.000 I don't want to be incorrect about this.

02:37:23.000 I think he believes that they cover up some of the side effects when they happen.

02:37:28.000 Not that they happen all the time, but some of the side effects when they do happen, particularly with children.

02:37:33.000 I think he believes they've covered them up.

02:37:36.000 Yeah, undoubtedly.

02:37:37.000 But this was all before the pandemic.

02:37:39.000 Right.

02:37:40.000 Before the pandemic, you was thought of as an anti-vaxxer, back when anti-vaxxer still carried a negative connotation, but it didn't seem like you were destroying society.

02:37:49.000 Right, right.

02:37:49.000 It was like, oh, he's one of those.

02:37:50.000 It was like Jenny McCarthy or something.

02:37:52.000 Exactly.

02:37:54.000 And now it's like, you're a demon! 0.73

02:37:56.000 Yeah, because people would keep trying to get me to get him on. 0.90

02:38:00.000 I don't know.

02:38:02.000 I need to watch him talk.

02:38:05.000 Have you?

02:38:06.000 I've seen a few things, but not in depth.

02:38:09.000 It's wild, though, that this book is number one on Amazon.

02:38:12.000 Yeah.

02:38:13.000 That's where I think most people buy books.

02:38:14.000 I believe that more than I believe any sort of curated list.

02:38:19.000 Oh, yeah.

02:38:20.000 I don't doubt it's a massive book.

02:38:22.000 You ever do a Google search?

02:38:23.000 Yeah.

02:38:24.000 And then do a DuckDuckGo search, and you're like, huh.

02:38:27.000 Yeah.

02:38:27.000 Like, DuckDuckGo doesn't curate, so you get all the relevant information.

02:38:32.000 Sure. 0.99

02:38:32.000 Whereas with Google, they hide shit from you. 0.99

02:38:34.000 Well, they gatekeep. 1.00

02:38:35.000 Exactly.

02:38:35.000 That's right.

02:38:36.000 Yeah.

02:38:37.000 Well, that's why you need, I think, alternatives to these things.

02:38:41.000 And I think alternatives to these things will be more online, like crypto-funded things that people can manage with a bunch of people as opposed to with a very small,

02:38:58.000 tightly controlled group of people.

02:39:01.000 That's the hope.

02:39:02.000 Okay.

02:39:04.000 I believe you.

02:39:05.000 I'm interested.

02:39:06.000 Now, all I need from you is $10 million.

02:39:12.000 I feel like it's that scene in Fargo where you're trying to sell me the coating underneath the car.

02:39:15.000 I just need $3 million cash, and we're going to make all of our dreams.

02:39:20.000 Oh, cash.

02:39:20.000 But what do you mean?

02:39:21.000 I thought cash was no good.

02:39:23.000 Listen.

02:39:24.000 We need it first.

02:39:26.000 It's a small startup cost.

02:39:27.000 Oh, so it's like...

02:39:29.000 It's a small startup cost.

02:39:30.000 You need a little bit of Tinder to start the fire.

02:39:32.000 A little bit of the greenbacks.

02:39:34.000 A little bit of the old bloody imperialist money to get lifted off into hyperspace.

02:39:42.000 Are you concerned about the future? 0.80

02:39:44.000 No.

02:39:44.000 Not at all?

02:39:45.000 No, I don't have children.

02:39:47.000 Oh, if you did, you would?

02:39:48.000 Maybe.

02:39:49.000 I mean, I want people to live in a good world, but I mean, concerned about the future is terribly...

02:39:55.000 I don't think it's productive.

02:39:59.000 Yeah.

02:40:00.000 I mean, because there's so much I can do.

02:40:02.000 I treat people nicely.

02:40:03.000 I pay people well.

02:40:05.000 I respect people.

02:40:07.000 But in terms of...

02:40:09.000 Is anyone concerned about the future who's not trying to overthrow the government?

02:40:15.000 That's a good question.

02:40:16.000 Well, wouldn't you try to overthrow the government if you were concerned about the future? 0.98

02:40:21.000 Well, you would, but then I don't want to run this shithole. 0.99

02:40:23.000 I don't want to run this shithole. 0.99

02:40:24.000 But who do you want to run the shithole? 0.99

02:40:26.000 Is there anybody that seems to stand out? 0.90

02:40:28.000 At this point, I'd rather...

02:40:31.000 I would rather... 1.00

02:40:34.000 This place be run by a consortium of criminals that are at least smart enough to be on the new wave of crime than I would these morons in Congress. 1.00

02:40:47.000 Well, I think they're all criminals anyway. 1.00

02:40:48.000 That's right.

02:40:49.000 The laws haven't been adjusted accordingly to make what they do illegal.

02:40:53.000 But as far as the future, I mean, it's like, I don't think you can spend an inordinate amount of time obsessing about things you can't control, right?

02:40:59.000 It's not wise.

02:41:01.000 We just had a pandemic. 1.00

02:41:02.000 There's going to be other shit. 0.99

02:41:04.000 There'll be natural disasters. 0.99

02:41:05.000 There'll be chaos.

02:41:06.000 There'll be all kinds of things that we can't control.

02:41:08.000 And I think we just have to accept that this experience that we're all having on Earth is, you know, fleeting.

02:41:15.000 Yeah.

02:41:15.000 So, you know, I don't know what this planet's going to look like in half a billion years, but I don't know.

02:41:22.000 Probably be done.

02:41:24.000 Well, at the beginning of the pandemic, you were, like, going to go on keto, and you were going to, like, try to clean your act up.

02:41:30.000 Well, I've cleaned my act up a little bit, but what does that do?

02:41:33.000 I mean, that's...

02:41:33.000 Listen...

02:41:35.000 You can still, as the great Donald J. Trump said, he was quoted as saying, you can worry about anything and then an earthquake kills 500 people in India.

02:41:44.000 What are you going to do?

02:41:46.000 You can't worry about it.

02:41:47.000 Is that what he said?

02:41:48.000 Yeah, something like that.

02:41:48.000 It's a great quote.

02:41:50.000 And he's right!

02:41:51.000 He's really right though.

02:41:52.000 You can't really, you can't obsess too much.

02:41:55.000 You should eat healthy and do things, but you can't obsess over anything. 0.99

02:42:00.000 His best quote was, everything woke turns to shit. 0.99

02:42:02.000 That was a good one. 1.00

02:42:03.000 That's the best quote.

02:42:05.000 He's not wrong. 0.53

02:42:06.000 That's a good one.

02:42:06.000 But, you know, he's also right about that, where it's like you can't obsess too much about the things you can't control.

02:42:15.000 Yeah, but you gotta kinda also keep your eye on the criminals. 0.98

02:42:20.000 You can't obsess too much on it, but you can't just stand back and let them pass wild, crazy fucking bills and not protest. 0.98

02:42:27.000 No, you gotta keep your eye on it. 0.93

02:42:29.000 What's happening here?

02:42:30.000 Nothing matters.

02:42:32.000 If you tell yourself it doesn't matter, like you do shows, you do this, you do that, and then you have an earthquake in India where 400,000 people get killed.

02:42:40.000 Trump told Larry King in that interview, honestly, it doesn't matter.

02:42:44.000 I mean, he's kind of a, you know, he has a point.

02:42:47.000 There are more times Trump said it doesn't matter when it involves things that very much do matter to the American people.

02:42:54.000 Well, this is HuffPost.

02:42:56.000 When he didn't care to meet with the President of China to reignite trade negotiations.

02:43:01.000 How do you know he didn't care to meet with them?

02:43:03.000 Maybe it was a strategy, you know?

02:43:05.000 It says in June, as the US trade negotiations with China remained stalled, Trump appeared uninterested in meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G20 summit in Japan.

02:43:17.000 Trump said it doesn't matter whether Xi attended the G20. If he shows up, good, Trump said on the show.

02:43:23.000 If he doesn't, in the meantime, we're taking in billions of dollars a month.

02:43:29.000 Eventually, they're going to make a deal because they're going to have to, he continued.

02:43:33.000 Look, they're paying hundreds of billions of dollars.

02:43:35.000 Is he right?

02:43:37.000 Yes.

02:43:37.000 See, one of the things that disturbs me is that his...

02:43:43.000 This wild sort of bombastic behavior disguises the fact that he's correct about some things.

02:43:49.000 Absolutely.

02:43:49.000 Where it's hard for people to see it because they don't want it to be correct.

02:43:52.000 That's right.

02:43:53.000 Like the way he dealt with China, was that the right way to deal with China?

02:43:56.000 Perhaps.

02:43:57.000 Yeah. 0.99

02:43:58.000 I mean, they did respond with a bioweapon that fucked us for two years. 0.96

02:44:03.000 I will say that perhaps that wasn't, you know? 0.95

02:44:05.000 Do you think maybe that's what happened?

02:44:07.000 I mean, it could be.

02:44:08.000 I just think that, like...

02:44:09.000 What are the odds?

02:44:09.000 Yeah.

02:44:09.000 If you had to, like, look at a percentage, what are the odds that that's what happened?

02:44:13.000 Relatively high?

02:44:14.000 40?

02:44:15.000 I don't know if it's that high, but...

02:44:16.000 30?

02:44:17.000 I don't know.

02:44:18.000 I think, well, you made a good point.

02:44:19.000 You can't let the criminals just run amok.

02:44:20.000 But the way to do that is to try to amass some type of power base.

02:44:26.000 Yeah.

02:44:26.000 Right?

02:44:27.000 Right.

02:44:28.000 And if people can do that with money, with influence, whatever they do, you've got to check people.

02:44:36.000 You've got to check people at the top.

02:44:39.000 And the only way seemingly to do that is to develop your own means of exchange, to develop your own means of...

02:44:52.000 Getting your message out or being able to connect with like-minded people outside of the You know monopolized forms of social media So all those things will evolve and you know how they evolved they seem somewhat essential and that that that's gonna be a way to you know Kind of key and then I guess run for something if you really care,

02:45:13.000 right? 0.96

02:45:15.000 So but that I mean who the fuck or find someone who's really good and Find someone who's really good for 10 months and then they become the criminals. 0.99

02:45:24.000 You know what I mean? 0.99

02:45:25.000 That is what happens.

02:45:26.000 That's exactly what happens.

02:45:27.000 They get them.

02:45:28.000 They get inside and they compromise you.

02:45:30.000 That's right.

02:45:31.000 And they compromise you.

02:45:33.000 Or they don't even compromise you.

02:45:34.000 They just go, you like your job?

02:45:36.000 Well, we'll fund your opponent and destroy you if you don't do exactly what we want.

02:45:42.000 And you get caught up in that system and This isn't designed to work.

02:45:48.000 The things that have changed life more have been cell phones and things.

02:45:52.000 They're not political solutions, really.

02:45:54.000 If you look at the technological advancements, those are the things that have really changed people's lives.

02:45:59.000 You can go on the internet.

02:46:00.000 You can make a living.

02:46:01.000 The problem is people have taken control of these technological solutions for communication, like Twitter or Facebook, and then they've compromised them and made them lean into their ideology.

02:46:12.000 And that's human nature and that'll probably always happen.

02:46:14.000 That's why you gotta keep coming up with new things.

02:46:17.000 You gotta keep evolving and keep figuring out new ways to do those things.

02:46:23.000 I think you're right.

02:46:24.000 I'm reluctant to agree, but I think you're right. 0.97

02:46:28.000 All this metaverse, NFT, crypto shit, I think you're probably right about that too. 0.89

02:46:34.000 I don't know exactly how to approach it. 0.96

02:46:36.000 It seems like it's going to require an enormous amount of time that I don't have to even think about it.

02:46:43.000 Why do I have the inclination to continue it after this conversation? 0.99

02:46:46.000 After this conversation is over, we're going to go to the green room, I'm going to have a bag of chips, and I'm going to go, what the fuck? 0.99

02:46:53.000 Have a cup of coffee. 0.99

02:46:55.000 Here's the easiest way to do it right now.

02:46:58.000 Connect me with your bank.

02:47:08.000 Okay. 1.00

02:47:08.000 Tim Dillon, you're the shit. 1.00

02:47:09.000 Thank you so much. 0.99

02:47:10.000 I appreciate you very much.

02:47:11.000 Great to be here.

02:47:12.000 Tell everybody where you're going to be.

02:47:13.000 You're still touring, right?

02:47:14.000 You've got fat antibodies.

02:47:16.000 Your antibodies are out of control.

02:47:17.000 I'm good, yeah, but they shut us down in Toronto.

02:47:18.000 We'll be back out.

02:47:19.000 We'll be back out in a few, probably in a month.

02:47:22.000 But they shut...

02:47:23.000 Toronto cut capacity.

02:47:25.000 I should probably say this because I haven't yet.

02:47:27.000 My 420 show that's sold out in Vancouver, I don't think that's happening.

02:47:32.000 I don't think I can even get into the country.

02:47:34.000 I'm not vaccinated.

02:47:35.000 I'm not going to get vaccinated.

02:47:37.000 I have antibodies.

02:47:39.000 It doesn't make any sense.

02:47:41.000 I don't think I can go.

02:47:44.000 And even if I do go, I don't trust that...

02:47:48.000 That Vancouver's not going to follow suit along with the way Toronto did it.

02:47:51.000 Yeah.

02:47:51.000 Where they cut capacity to 50%.

02:47:53.000 Yeah, so we're just waiting right now.

02:47:55.000 We're going to put some more dates, you know.

02:47:57.000 See, Tim lives.

02:47:59.000 Oh, you're doing American Comedy Company?

02:48:01.000 Yeah, we're just doing that. 0.99

02:48:02.000 Working out some new shit. 1.00

02:48:02.000 And then, unfortunately, the UK is going to be fucked, too. 1.00

02:48:05.000 What made you decide to do American Comedy Company instead of doing a theater down there? 0.97

02:48:09.000 Well, we had those dates on the books for a while.

02:48:11.000 So we just had those dates on the books for a while.

02:48:13.000 It's a great place, though.

02:48:14.000 Yeah, it's fun.

02:48:15.000 It's not the worst place to be for a few days. 0.98

02:48:16.000 No, San Diego is a great fucking place to be for a few days. 0.98

02:48:19.000 It's my favorite place in California now. 0.99

02:48:20.000 I love it.

02:48:21.000 Because they're still relatively free.

02:48:23.000 Yeah.

02:48:24.000 Although they have a wacky mayor now.

02:48:26.000 Oh, yeah.

02:48:26.000 I don't know.

02:48:27.000 I think they got rid of one mayor and got a wacky mayor.

02:48:29.000 Dude, Palm Springs is still the best place.

02:48:31.000 Is it?

02:48:31.000 Well, it's just 1940s.

02:48:33.000 Really?

02:48:34.000 I've never been.

02:48:36.000 The desert out there is cool, man.

02:48:37.000 It's just chill.

02:48:38.000 People just don't care about anything. 0.93

02:48:40.000 But after you yell at those lesbians about their Airbnb, are you allowed back? 1.00

02:48:44.000 Well, that's Joshua Tree. 0.86

02:48:46.000 They don't live in Palm Springs.

02:48:48.000 They're animals. 1.00

02:48:48.000 They live in the disgusting desert. 1.00

02:48:50.000 Did you ever make up with those? 0.77

02:48:52.000 No, I'm off Airbnb for the rest of my life.

02:48:53.000 Ever?

02:48:54.000 But I don't care because the Airbnb sucks and everyone's going back to hotels.

02:48:57.000 Everyone's going back to hotels.

02:48:59.000 Why?

02:48:59.000 What happened?

02:48:59.000 Well, because all the services are back.

02:49:01.000 The room service, the gym, the cool things, the restaurants.

02:49:04.000 Nobody wants to do their own dishes anymore.

02:49:06.000 Airbnb shorted.

02:49:07.000 It's over.

02:49:07.000 It's dying.

02:49:09.000 And that's all I have to say about Airbnb.

02:49:11.000 It's going to be done soon.

02:49:12.000 Okay.

02:49:13.000 It's going to be done. 1.00

02:49:14.000 It's stupid. 1.00

02:49:15.000 The idea of it is stupid. 1.00

02:49:16.000 Stupid. 1.00

02:49:17.000 Follow Tim Dillon on all social media platforms. 1.00

02:49:21.000 Listen to his podcast.

02:49:22.000 One of the best podcasts on earth.

02:49:24.000 Very nice of you to say.

02:49:25.000 It's bigger than mine.

02:49:26.000 It is bigger than Joe's by the numbers.

02:49:28.000 By all metrics.

02:49:29.000 Because here's the thing.

02:49:30.000 Yours is not even on YouTube.

02:49:32.000 No.

02:49:32.000 But if yours gets bigger, they'll put it on YouTube.

02:49:34.000 Mine's on YouTube.

02:49:34.000 It's big.

02:49:35.000 I just have clips on YouTube.

02:49:37.000 All right.

02:49:38.000 Good night.

02:49:38.000 Do they censor you on YouTube at all?

02:49:40.000 Oh, I'm sure.

02:49:41.000 Have they ever pulled one of your episodes?

02:49:43.000 We don't get monetized.

02:49:45.000 They don't give us money.

02:49:48.000 What happened there?

02:49:49.000 They haven't demonetized the channel, but we get partial monetization often and then sometimes no monetization.

02:49:56.000 They punish you for your wrong think.

02:49:58.000 Well, they punish me for the things I say.

02:50:00.000 What are you saying that's so offensive?

02:50:01.000 I agree with you.

02:50:03.000 I'm with you.

02:50:04.000 I'm on your side, but these people are out of control.

02:50:07.000 You know?

02:50:08.000 Goodbye, everybody.

02:50:09.000 Good luck.
