00:00:01.000 Joe Rogan podcast, check it out.

00:00:03.000 The Joe Rogan experience.

00:00:06.000 Train by day, Joe Rogan.

00:00:07.000 Podcast by night, all day.

00:00:12.000 Did you watch it?

00:00:13.000 Did you watch the UFC?

00:00:14.000 Oh, Islam Magazine.

00:00:18.000 Fuck, dude goes up one-way class, goes up to 170.

00:00:21.000 He was the 55-pound, most dominant champion ever, most title defensive 55 ever, just dominates at 170.

00:00:27.000 Like every round.

00:00:29.000 People are saying it's boring, but listen, man, it's boring if you're a casual.

00:00:35.000 The fact that he was able to do it every round, it was a little frustrating because you wanted Jack to try to adjust, but he couldn't, man.

00:00:43.000 Islam shut his game down right away.

00:00:45.000 He low-kicked the shit out of his front leg real quick, had him limping real quick.

00:00:50.000 Like within the first round, he had hit it three or four times bad.

00:00:55.000 Imagine being Khabib.

00:00:56.000 You know, just your protege is coming in.

00:00:59.000 Khabib's even better than him.

00:01:01.000 Right.

00:01:01.000 That's what's so crazy.

00:01:02.000 That's how good those guys are.

00:01:04.000 But Khabib's not better stand-up, though.

00:01:08.000 Islam has really good stand-up.

00:01:10.000 Like his stand-up, Khabib's stand-up was a means to an end.

00:01:13.000 It was like his stand-up was to crack you so he'd get a hold of you and fuck you up, just drag you to the ground, smash you.

00:01:19.000 That was Khabib's move.

00:01:20.000 But Islam is fucking KOing people, man.

00:01:23.000 It's different.

00:01:24.000 He's different.

00:01:25.000 He's head-kicking Volkanovsky.

00:01:27.000 It's like a different level of stand-up.

00:01:29.000 Yeah, Khabib said, you're going to be better than me.

00:01:31.000 Crazy.

00:01:32.000 Crazy.

00:01:33.000 Them Dagestani boys are here to stay.

00:01:35.000 You know what's crazy, dude?

00:01:36.000 Bilal Muhammad, you know, who was the champ at Welterweight, went down to Dagestan to train with those guys.

00:01:41.000 And he was like, I thought I trained hard.

00:01:43.000 I really did.

00:01:44.000 I thought I trained hard until I trained with those guys.

00:01:47.000 I'm going to follow that.

00:01:48.000 If I ever have a son, I'm just dropping him.

00:01:49.000 As soon as he's hit puberty, I'm dropping him off in Dagestan.

00:01:53.000 He said, leave him here, forget.

00:01:55.000 That's the thing they always say.

00:01:56.000 Take him to Dagestan.

00:01:57.000 Two, three years, forget.

00:01:59.000 Yeah, for real.

00:02:00.000 For real.

00:02:01.000 He comes back telling you what to do.

00:02:02.000 How are you going to fuck with that?

00:02:03.000 Because that's real.

00:02:04.000 That's how those dudes are really rolling out there.

00:02:06.000 That's how they're really living.

00:02:08.000 They pray five times a day.

00:02:11.000 They're super religious.

00:02:12.000 There's no gambling.

00:02:13.000 There's no drinking.

00:02:14.000 There's no partying.

00:02:16.000 There's just training.

00:02:17.000 Just training and training with a bunch of fucking animals.

00:02:17.000 Just training.

00:02:21.000 Eating together, training together, just getting after it every day.

00:02:26.000 And then it's iron-sharpens iron because everyone who comes out of there is a fucking killer.

00:02:32.000 Yeah.

00:02:33.000 Crazy.

00:02:34.000 Yeah, you got to be real.

00:02:36.000 Most people don't want to live that life.

00:02:38.000 And they don't forgive the disrespect.

00:02:38.000 Yeah.

00:02:40.000 No.

00:02:42.000 They just fucked Dylan Dannis up this past weekend.

00:02:44.000 Did you see that?

00:02:45.000 Oh, yeah.

00:02:45.000 Yeah.

00:02:46.000 That was the fight in the crowd.

00:02:47.000 Yeah.

00:02:48.000 You won't forget.

00:02:49.000 You got to watch what you say.

00:02:50.000 Bro, and they're, you know.

00:02:52.000 Dagestanis, they not talking shit for promotional purposes.

00:02:55.000 No.

00:02:55.000 No, no, no.

00:02:55.000 No.

00:02:56.000 You got to be real careful.

00:02:57.000 No.

00:02:57.000 He's down in the marrow of the bones.

00:03:00.000 Do you think that there would ever be, like, do you think Connor could ever apologize to Khabib and like bury the hatchet?

00:03:06.000 He would have to, it would have to be in private, and he would have to really mean it, man.

00:03:12.000 You know?

00:03:13.000 He would have to really mean it, and you'd have to convince Khabib that you really meant it.

00:03:17.000 And that it was all, you know, because he just doesn't play that game, that talking shit to sell a fight game.

00:03:22.000 He doesn't play that game.

00:03:24.000 Especially when it comes to his wife, his people.

00:03:26.000 Oh, everything.

00:03:27.000 Everything.

00:03:27.000 I saw a clip of DC saying like he did.

00:03:30.000 He had like Connor on his show one time and Khabib was like, no, what's that about?

00:03:36.000 Yeah, like, that's my enemy.

00:03:37.000 Right.

00:03:38.000 And you're my friend.

00:03:39.000 Yeah.

00:03:39.000 And, you know, DC was like, oh, yeah, I had to, I didn't look at it that way, but I had to check myself.

00:03:39.000 Yeah.

00:03:44.000 Yeah.

00:03:44.000 Because if you're a journalist, if you're, or if you're doing a podcast, you're going to have some people on that don't like people that are close to you.

00:03:51.000 But you got it, like, that can only go to a certain level.

00:03:54.000 You know, if someone is your like sworn enemy and this other guy's your training partner and your brother, you can't really have that guy on.

00:04:02.000 Oh, yeah, of course not.

00:04:03.000 Absolutely not.

00:04:04.000 Like, there's no scenario where Khabib was going to be friendly with John Jones because he knows the history.

00:04:10.000 Like, he might be respectful, but you ain't going to catch him kicking it.

00:04:13.000 Nah.

00:04:13.000 Yeah.

00:04:14.000 Well, I think John and DC have pretty much buried the hatchet.

00:04:17.000 Really?

00:04:18.000 Yeah.

00:04:19.000 I think they have.

00:04:20.000 I think they communicated.

00:04:22.000 I think they've had some interaction.

00:04:25.000 You know, it's like when you have two bitter rivals like that and one guy comes out on top, it's just always going to be that way.

00:04:32.000 Always forever.

00:04:34.000 Yeah, because they're different kind of people.

00:04:36.000 I forget that sometimes.

00:04:37.000 Like the competitive, the people that are like ultra competitive.

00:04:40.000 Totally different kinds of human beings, man.

00:04:42.000 It doesn't go away.

00:04:42.000 Their drive is, it's like, you don't understand it.

00:04:46.000 You don't live it, you know?

00:04:48.000 And like wrestlers, like elite wrestlers, are the only people that train the way like Khabib and his crew train.

00:04:57.000 Like in any other combat sport, like if you're coming over from kickboxing and, you know, and then you want to fight MMA and, you know, you think, well, I've already trained like an animal already.

00:05:09.000 Like, yeah.

00:05:12.000 There's a difference.

00:05:13.000 There's a difference in the kind of exhaustion that you get from like hardcore wrestling training.

00:05:18.000 And that's something that these guys have.

00:05:20.000 It's like, that's why wrestling is the number one base for MMA.

00:05:25.000 Because anybody who gets really good at wrestling, you got to be a fucking animal.

00:05:29.000 You got to be a fucking animal.

00:05:31.000 Yeah.

00:05:31.000 I wrestled in high school the first couple of years and it was like, I was like, this ain't for me.

00:05:36.000 You know, it was hard.

00:05:38.000 It's hardcore, man.

00:05:40.000 So hard.

00:05:41.000 Because besides the technique and stuff, you have to be able to suffer.

00:05:45.000 You're training to suffer.

00:05:47.000 Yep.

00:05:48.000 Yeah.

00:05:48.000 And they break you all the way down every single practice.

00:05:51.000 Training to suffer and then the losing weight.

00:05:53.000 The losing weight and competing on the same day.

00:05:55.000 You know, I went to school with this kid.

00:05:58.000 He was 5'6.

00:05:59.000 All his brothers are like 6'6'1.

00:06:02.000 It's because he wrestled all throughout his childhood and cut weight all through his childhood.

00:06:06.000 He essentially starved himself and stunted his growth.

00:06:10.000 Well, my friend Jeffrey, you know, Bernard used to work at the club.

00:06:15.000 He used to perform at the club, but he was a wrestling guy, did real well in California and all that.

00:06:21.000 And now he like, he doesn't, he doesn't know when he's hungry.

00:06:26.000 Oh, Jesus Christ.

00:06:27.000 You know, like he's, he just has to eat because he's like, oh, I haven't eaten.

00:06:30.000 But his whatever connection it is, like.

00:06:33.000 He broke it.

00:06:34.000 Yeah, like he'll forget to eat.

00:06:35.000 That's crazy.

00:06:36.000 Yeah.

00:06:37.000 It's like that, it could really fuck with you.

00:06:39.000 So usually it fucks with guys the other way, where they cut weight too long and then they just blow up like balloons when they don't have to fight anymore.

00:06:45.000 They go crazy and they just can't stop eating.

00:06:47.000 They develop real eating disorders.

00:06:49.000 It's like it's really common amongst guys who cut weight.

00:06:51.000 Well, that's when I quit.

00:06:52.000 I quit.

00:06:52.000 I did a tournament and it was the first tournament my brother was coming to see me and I missed weight by a pound or something like that.

00:07:03.000 And so I ended up, I still got to wrestle, but it was like in the losers bracket or wrestled people off on the side.

00:07:09.000 And there was a guy that he had on what I know now is an insulin pump, but I didn't know at the time.

00:07:15.000 Oh, you told me this.

00:07:17.000 And he just kept fucking me up because I didn't, I was scared to hurt him and he didn't give a fuck about me.

00:07:17.000 Yeah.

00:07:22.000 And I got my ass whooped and then when it was finally all over, I was like, oh.

00:07:26.000 And I went to the vending machine and I fucking opened the snickle bot.

00:07:30.000 I was like, ah, and my coach came over.

00:07:32.000 He was like, what the fuck are you doing?

00:07:34.000 You know, I was like, well, the tournament's over.

00:07:36.000 He's like, you missed weight.

00:07:37.000 You're going to come over here and get snacks.

00:07:39.000 And it was, and I was one of them kids where, like, I was just defiant.

00:07:43.000 And I was like, fuck you.

00:07:45.000 You know, and that was the last time.

00:07:46.000 That was the last time he saw me.

00:07:47.000 I was like, you know, because if that's what this is going to be, I can't do it.

00:07:54.000 No snacks after losing.

00:07:56.000 Yeah, especially missing weight.

00:07:58.000 I mean, looking back, he had a point.

00:07:59.000 How much did you miss it by?

00:08:00.000 A pound.

00:08:02.000 I missed it by a pound.

00:08:04.000 Because, you know, it's like you can't.

00:08:05.000 It's certain households where, like, you know, my mama didn't give a fuck about no making weight.

00:08:10.000 You're going to eat that food.

00:08:12.000 You know, it wasn't like I didn't have control over my diet.

00:08:15.000 Yeah.

00:08:15.000 Right.

00:08:16.000 So then you would just have to run it off.

00:08:18.000 Yeah, run it off.

00:08:19.000 You ever figure out how much calories you actually like burn when you do a hard workout?

00:08:26.000 It's not as much as you think.

00:08:27.000 No.

00:08:28.000 Like this dude, I forget what he ate, but he had some crazy meal with like fucking pancakes, pizza, and all kinds of shit, like 10,000 calories or something like that.

00:08:38.000 And then he went running to burn off the calories and he tracked it like on an app.

00:08:43.000 He ran for 10 hours.

00:08:45.000 He ran like 30 miles.

00:08:48.000 Yeah, the dude was in really good shape.

00:08:50.000 But when he did this, like he was tracking like where his, how many calories he had burned so far.

00:08:56.000 And it took him like a marathon, like 30 hours of running.

00:09:01.000 To burn off 1,000 calories?

00:09:03.000 30 miles rather.

00:09:04.000 30 miles of running.

00:09:05.000 No, it was more than it was like 10,000 calories.

00:09:08.000 You know, I forget what he ate.

00:09:08.000 Whatever it was.

00:09:10.000 It was like pancakes and all kinds of crazy shit.

00:09:12.000 Very calorie.

00:09:13.000 But the purpose was to see what happens if you eat all this stuff.

00:09:18.000 Like, what does it actually take to burn this off?

00:09:19.000 So he measures all the calories and then he just goes out running.

00:09:23.000 Yeah, it's kind of, it's kind of disappointing when you realize.

00:09:25.000 It takes a long time.

00:09:27.000 It takes a long time to burn off 10,000 calories.

00:09:31.000 Like, that's a lot of working out.

00:09:32.000 That's why I'm, I know I'm going to stay fat till I die.

00:09:37.000 You know, because I got this row machine, and then it tries to tell you how many.

00:09:44.000 It is more discouraging than anything.

00:09:46.000 I had to turn that shit off.

00:09:47.000 Did you lose any weight when you did that carnivore diet for a month?

00:09:49.000 Oh, yeah.

00:09:50.000 How much did you lose?

00:09:52.000 I don't know, maybe like 10 pounds.

00:09:54.000 Yeah, well, imagine if you did that for like six months.

00:09:57.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:09:58.000 Do you think you could?

00:09:58.000 The diet is everything.

00:09:59.000 Yeah, that's the whole way to lose weight.

00:10:01.000 You don't really lose weight in the gym.

00:10:03.000 I mean, you do.

00:10:04.000 You lose a little weight.

00:10:05.000 Your body gets toned.

00:10:06.000 That's all good.

00:10:06.000 You get healthier.

00:10:07.000 But the real way you lose weight is your diet.

00:10:09.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:10:10.000 It's just discipline.

00:10:11.000 It's hard.

00:10:12.000 You know?

00:10:13.000 It's hard.

00:10:14.000 It was easier when I was poor.

00:10:16.000 Yeah.

00:10:18.000 Yeah.

00:10:18.000 Of course.

00:10:19.000 Of course.

00:10:20.000 Because I try to tell people this, but it's like when you're your own boss, you can't also be a shitty employee.

00:10:29.000 Right.

00:10:31.000 You know?

00:10:32.000 Like, I'm the one setting the rules, but I'm also the one enforcing the rules.

00:10:35.000 And I'm like, you good.

00:10:37.000 Yeah, that's funny.

00:10:38.000 Get it next time.

00:10:39.000 Yeah, you almost have to create a boss in your brain for like certain things that you have to do.

00:10:43.000 Like a general just tells you what to do.

00:10:46.000 You just fucking go do it.

00:10:46.000 Yeah, sir.

00:10:48.000 Got to be a robot.

00:10:48.000 Yeah.

00:10:49.000 David Gauggins could definitely sell an app, just a motivational app.

00:10:53.000 He could, but.

00:10:54.000 Just calls you a bitch every month.

00:10:56.000 Yeah.

00:10:56.000 I mean, really, all you need to do is just go watch his videos.

00:11:00.000 If you want to get motivated, just go watch that guy's videos.

00:11:03.000 Yeah.

00:11:04.000 Do people ever go to like, just go stay with him?

00:11:07.000 Yeah, he's done that before.

00:11:08.000 David Eiler, is that who it was?

00:11:09.000 No.

00:11:10.000 What was his name?

00:11:13.000 Who he stayed with?

00:11:14.000 Yeah, the dude that wrote the book.

00:11:17.000 Fuck.

00:11:17.000 I can't believe I can't remember his name.

00:11:19.000 Like, he's on some Diamond Dallas page shit where, like, he'll just.

00:11:22.000 Well, he, not really.

00:11:24.000 This dude was writing a book.

00:11:26.000 Jesse Itzler?

00:11:27.000 Yes.

00:11:28.000 That's it.

00:11:30.000 Stayed with him.

00:11:31.000 And, you know, David's like, all right, we're going to train.

00:11:34.000 And, you know, you're going to do whatever the fuck I tell you to do.

00:11:36.000 And we're going to do it.

00:11:38.000 I forget how many days you did it for.

00:11:41.000 He wrote a book about it, right?

00:11:42.000 Like, living with a Navy SEAL.

00:11:45.000 I think he did it for like 30 days.

00:11:47.000 You probably got to pass a physical.

00:11:50.000 Well, yeah, you could die.

00:11:51.000 You could definitely die.

00:11:52.000 You could definitely have a heart attack.

00:11:53.000 But see, that's the thing.

00:11:54.000 He don't care if he die.

00:11:55.000 Right.

00:11:55.000 Yeah.

00:11:56.000 Remember, he had something happen, some kind of heart thing.

00:11:59.000 Rhabdomyelosis.

00:12:00.000 He had rhabdomyelosis.

00:12:01.000 He's had a bunch of things.

00:12:02.000 He's had heart surgery, but he had rhabdomyelosis that he got because rhabdo is when you push yourself so hard.

00:12:09.000 Let's put that into perplexity, our sponsor, and find out exactly what rhabdomyelosis is because I'm going to fuck this up.

00:12:17.000 What is perplexity?

00:12:18.000 We got an AI sponsor.

00:12:19.000 No bullshit.

00:12:20.000 Yeah.

00:12:20.000 Perplexity.

00:12:21.000 Was it like a doctor?

00:12:22.000 No, it's an AI.

00:12:24.000 It's an AI large language model, and it gives you answers.

00:12:28.000 So process is when muscle tissue damaged by trauma, excessive exercise, prolonged immobility, metabolic or genetic disorders, infections, toxins, or certain medications.

00:12:38.000 So obviously, in David Goggins' case, excessive exercise.

00:12:42.000 So the muscle cell breaks down.

00:12:44.000 Substances like myoglobin, creatine, kinase, electrolytes, and enzymes leak into the blood.

00:12:52.000 Myoglobin, filtered by the kidneys, can cause urine to turn dark brown or red, and in large amounts can cause acute kidney failure.

00:13:00.000 So when your piss starts looking like Diet Coke, that's when you know you got a problem.

00:13:05.000 I think you just gave Hollywood the worst idea.

00:13:07.000 No.

00:13:08.000 Instead of people coughing into a napkin so you know they're sick, they're going to be taking a piss that's going to turn into syrup.

00:13:14.000 Well, it's only if someone works out so hard that your body's breaking down.

00:13:17.000 That's really what it is.

00:13:18.000 Like you're literally working yourself to death.

00:13:21.000 Yeah, but then this crazy motherfucker finished the race.

00:13:25.000 He went to the hospital.

00:13:26.000 He went to the hospital, recovered in the hospital, went back to the exact spot where he stopped and completed the race.

00:13:32.000 And then did like 100 push-ups at the finish line.

00:13:36.000 You just went to the hospital for doing extra.

00:13:40.000 You just can't, you know, you just have to accept that's who he is.

00:13:44.000 That's who he is.

00:13:45.000 He's got no knee cartilage.

00:13:46.000 He still runs.

00:13:48.000 He's just a different, he's a different human.

00:13:50.000 But again, it's like the Dagestan thing.

00:13:53.000 Like there's levels to discipline and commitment.

00:13:56.000 And those guys have, it's a very high, it's also like very high-level training, too.

00:14:01.000 It's not just discipline.

00:14:02.000 It's like they're very technical.

00:14:04.000 Abdulmanop, who was Khabib's dad, was a phenomenal trainer.

00:14:09.000 Just phenomenal.

00:14:10.000 But where did he learn all of that shit?

00:14:12.000 Well, it's all, you know, Russian sambo, and they all have like a long history of, like, I think his dad, let's Google this just to make sure I'm not speaking out of my ass.

00:14:25.000 But, you know, you got to think of like sambo or combat sambo is that's where Fedora Millionenko came from, too.

00:14:31.000 So Russian sambo is like MMA, but they wear like a judo gi top, and they have shorts on and wrestling shoes, MMA gloves, and fucking headgear.

00:14:44.000 And they have combat sambo championships.

00:14:46.000 They throw each other using the gi.

00:14:48.000 They have ground and pound.

00:14:50.000 They're kicking and punching.

00:14:51.000 it's a crazy sport so it's like judo mixed with it's like judo mixed with mma But they're wearing wrestling shoes.

00:14:59.000 Like, it's really kind of crazy.

00:15:01.000 But there's no ground impound?

00:15:02.000 There's ground impound.

00:15:03.000 Yeah, it's basically kind of MMA.

00:15:04.000 So Abdulmanov, he was named by the Russian Book of Records as the most successful combat sambo coach in the country.

00:15:13.000 So he was the head coach of Eagles MMA, coached two UFC champions, his son Khabib Nermagomenov, as well as Islam Makachev.

00:15:22.000 But so he practiced from a young age while serving in the Soviet Army, Soviet Army, began to practice judo and sambo.

00:15:28.000 First big success as a coach came with his brother, Nermogomed Nermogomedov, won at the World Sambo Championship for Ukraine's national team in 92.

00:15:38.000 He trained a total of 18 world champions through his coaching career.

00:15:42.000 That's how good that guy was.

00:15:43.000 18 world champions.

00:15:45.000 That's crazy.

00:15:47.000 Show him a video of Combat Sambo.

00:15:50.000 How about show Fedor competing in Combat Sambo?

00:15:54.000 It's kind of crazy when you see him because he was competing in Combat Sambo, I believe, while he was also fighting in MMA.

00:16:01.000 He was still competing for Russia in Combat Sam.

00:16:04.000 There's a difference between Combat Sambo and some other kind.

00:16:07.000 Yeah, well, there's Sambo, which is like just the grappling art of Sambo.

00:16:12.000 But look at this.

00:16:13.000 They're fighting with punches, with the grappling key on, and shoes on.

00:16:18.000 This is crazy, right?

00:16:19.000 Oh, wow.

00:16:20.000 Isn't that nuts?

00:16:22.000 They got wrestling shoes on, shin pads.

00:16:25.000 Oh, no knees.

00:16:26.000 Yeah.

00:16:28.000 They can't throw knees here?

00:16:29.000 Is that what's going on?

00:16:30.000 I don't know what the rules are.

00:16:30.000 I don't know.

00:16:31.000 Because I feel like if they could, he would have thrown them right there.

00:16:34.000 Pretty crazy, man.

00:16:35.000 So that's Fedor when he was world champion in MMA.

00:16:40.000 Maybe the greatest of all time.

00:16:41.000 He's definitely in the argument of the greatest of all time.

00:16:43.000 Fedor?

00:16:44.000 Yeah, the argument is him, Kane Velasquez, for heavyweight, Francis and Ganu, and John Jones now, that he's a heavyweight, but he hasn't really, the only heavyweights that he really beat, he beat Stipe when Stipe was kind of at the end of his career.

00:17:03.000 And he beat Gone, but he caught Gone in the guillotine real early.

00:17:06.000 Clearly one of the greatest fighters of all time.

00:17:09.000 But the argument of him being the greatest heavyweight, he's only got two heavyweight fights.

00:17:13.000 Then the other guy is Fabricio Verdum.

00:17:16.000 Fabricio Verdum, on paper, has one of the best arguments because he tapped everybody.

00:17:21.000 He tapped all the world champions.

00:17:23.000 Fabricio Verde.

00:17:24.000 And people forget, man, because they only look at a guy when the guy's lost.

00:17:28.000 Like MMA fans, once someone loses and they start, they have a few losses in a row, people forget how good they were when they were in their prime.

00:17:36.000 And Fabricio Verdum in his prime tapped Fedor Emilianenko, Kane Velasquez, and Minotaro Noguera.

00:17:45.000 Which is crazy.

00:17:45.000 What are you saying?

00:17:46.000 There's a window, right?

00:17:47.000 Was it nine years?

00:17:48.000 It's about nine years.

00:17:49.000 When fighters came that heavyweight window shortened real fight.

00:17:54.000 It gets short.

00:17:55.000 What's the most defenses in the heavyweight?

00:17:57.000 It's Stepe.

00:17:58.000 Stipe has two or three.

00:17:59.000 It's just three, right?

00:18:00.000 Let's find out.

00:18:01.000 It's just three.

00:18:02.000 Stipe Miocic is the, he's the consensus most successful heavyweight of all time.

00:18:07.000 You could say maybe he's the greatest of all time.

00:18:10.000 You know, it's all when you catch him.

00:18:11.000 I mean, the guy got through Francis in that first fight when Francis was just like taking people's heads off.

00:18:16.000 Like they were attached with sticky glue.

00:18:19.000 With three, yeah, three.

00:18:21.000 Three.

00:18:21.000 You would think it would be more than three, right?

00:18:23.000 Oh, man.

00:18:24.000 Because all the other weight classes, like, what's light heavyweight?

00:18:28.000 It's like four.

00:18:29.000 He's got four.

00:18:29.000 Hold on.

00:18:30.000 Oh, this thing was three in a row.

00:18:30.000 Scroll back up.

00:18:32.000 Yeah, three in a row.

00:18:33.000 But he's got the most titled defenses.

00:18:36.000 Scroll back up, please.

00:19:40.000 Happy Dad Hard Seltzer Tea and Lemonade is a malt alcohol located in Orange County, California.

00:19:47.000 So he's got the most title defenses in the division's history with four.

00:19:51.000 Oh, right, because he took the belt back from Cormier.

00:19:54.000 Right.

00:19:54.000 And then defended against Cormier and then defended against Francis, which was the craziest one.

00:20:01.000 Right.

00:20:01.000 And then lost it to Francis.

00:20:03.000 No, no, defended against Francis.

00:20:05.000 Oh, no, no, no.

00:20:06.000 I fucked this up.

00:20:07.000 Defended against Francis, then got knocked out by Cormier.

00:20:10.000 Cormier knocked him out after the Francis fight.

00:20:13.000 Then they fought a second time, and Steve beat him, stopped him.

00:20:13.000 No, you're absolutely right.

00:20:19.000 That was the time when he was hooking him to the body.

00:20:20.000 Body shots, yeah.

00:20:21.000 Oh, my God.

00:20:22.000 He had that beautiful left hook to the body that he just had wired.

00:20:25.000 So he beat Daniel, beat Daniel again.

00:20:28.000 He beat him by decision in the third fight.

00:20:31.000 And then in the next one, he fought.

00:20:33.000 Scroll up.

00:20:34.000 In the next one, he fought Francis again and got KO'd.

00:20:37.000 That was a brutal one.

00:20:38.000 And then John Jones hit him with that beautiful spinning back kick to the body.

00:20:44.000 But it's like he's in the argument, too, for one of the greatest of all time.

00:20:47.000 My thing about Fabricio, though, is like people forget how hard it is to submit a guy like Fedora Millionenko or a guy like Kane Velasquez.

00:20:56.000 And to be the guy that submits all, like out of the guys who you consider possibly all-time greats, he submitted three of them.

00:21:04.000 That's nuts.

00:21:05.000 When Velasquez first came on the scene, I thought nobody was going to be able to beat him.

00:21:09.000 Bro, he was a monster because he was a heavyweight with cardio like a lightweight.

00:21:13.000 It was nuts.

00:21:15.000 Nothing like that.

00:21:16.000 Yeah, but everybody has their day, man.

00:21:20.000 There's nobody that's unbeatable.

00:21:22.000 Well, what happened with Kane is he didn't adjust to Mexico City.

00:21:26.000 So they had a fight.

00:21:28.000 Kane and Fabricio fought in Mexico City.

00:21:31.000 And Mexico City, I think, is like 7,000 feet above sea level.

00:21:35.000 What?

00:21:36.000 Put that in there.

00:21:36.000 Yeah.

00:21:37.000 Let's see what Plex City says about that.

00:21:39.000 I'm pretty sure that's the case, though.

00:21:40.000 I think it's about 7,000 feet above sea level.

00:21:42.000 And it's real thin air.

00:21:44.000 Also, it's a lot of pollution.

00:21:45.000 So it's not like the best air.

00:21:47.000 Like, it's not much air, and it's polluted.

00:21:52.000 And Fabricio got there way early, like months in advance.

00:21:58.000 7,350 feet.

00:22:00.000 Yeah.

00:22:01.000 Above sea level.

00:22:02.000 So real, real high altitude already.

00:22:05.000 So your cardio is already going to be taxed if you're a heavyweight.

00:22:08.000 Yeah, that's crazy.

00:22:09.000 That's 2,000 feet above Denver.

00:22:11.000 Did he have a good reason?

00:22:11.000 But why didn't he go?

00:22:13.000 I think there was some domestic issues.

00:22:16.000 Oh, man.

00:22:17.000 I think someone didn't want him leaving.

00:22:19.000 You know, he only got a chance to be out there, I think, for two weeks.

00:22:24.000 And that's not enough time.

00:22:25.000 That's not even close.

00:22:26.000 Not even close.

00:22:27.000 Fabricio was up there, I think, for six months.

00:22:31.000 I think they told him that he was going to be fighting for the title.

00:22:33.000 And I think he went up there for, I might be talking out of school, but it was many months.

00:22:37.000 It was at least four months.

00:22:39.000 And he was up in the mountains above Mexico City.

00:22:42.000 So he's like, fuck it, let's go 9,000 feet.

00:22:44.000 Let's get crazy.

00:22:45.000 And so got accustomed to even higher altitude.

00:22:48.000 And then when he came down, he was in prime shape.

00:22:52.000 And he caught Kane in a guillotine and submitted him.

00:22:54.000 It was nuts.

00:22:55.000 It was like seeing him, he's like I said, he submitted three of the greatest of all time.

00:23:01.000 Like that, that alone, you got to think.

00:23:05.000 So he showed up two months early.

00:23:06.000 Verdum did his homework prior to the fight, showed up two months early and established a training camp in the mountains, conditioning his body to even higher elevation around 12,000 feet.

00:23:15.000 So I was wrong on both counts.

00:23:16.000 It wasn't four months.

00:23:17.000 It was two months.

00:23:18.000 And he was at 12,000 feet, which is fucking crazy.

00:23:23.000 Yeah, that's.

00:23:25.000 He said for the first two weeks I was here, it felt as if I'd never trained before at all.

00:23:29.000 I was so tired.

00:23:31.000 So if you got used to doing that, okay, so, okay, Kane only went 10 days early.

00:23:37.000 Oh, my God.

00:23:38.000 I feel like that's some shit that George St. Pierre would do just for every fight.

00:23:42.000 Right.

00:23:42.000 Get an oxygen deprivation tank or something.

00:23:45.000 Well, BJ was doing that for a while.

00:23:46.000 While BJ Penn was sleeping in a tent, say it was a plastic tent that he would seal off and he would sleep inside of it.

00:23:53.000 Like you put it up around his bed and there was a thing that sucked oxygen out of the air there and it made it like you were sleeping at high elevation.

00:24:04.000 Apparently that's the move.

00:24:06.000 The move is sleep at high elevation but train at low elevation.

00:24:12.000 And the reason for that is when you train at low elevation, you have more oxygen, you can get more reps, you can put in more rounds, you can put in more work.

00:24:20.000 And then the recovery is where you really want your body to be adapting.

00:24:25.000 So then once you're done training, go back up.

00:24:27.000 Like say if you were training in like in like in the valley and then you went up to Big Bear and you were sleeping at Big Bear, which is like, I think Big Bear's like 6,000 feet or something like that.

00:24:38.000 But doesn't that only work if you're if the fight is at elevation?

00:24:42.000 Like if you're fighting.

00:24:43.000 No, the idea is sleeping at altitude is all you need.

00:24:46.000 Sleeping at altitude gets your body.

00:24:50.000 The whole thing is about getting your body to sort of adapt to this new altitude.

00:24:55.000 So if you just sleep at altitude, you can fight at altitude.

00:24:59.000 Oh, okay.

00:24:59.000 Exactly.

00:25:00.000 You'll have more oxygen.

00:25:00.000 Exactly.

00:25:02.000 You'll have more.

00:25:02.000 And you'll be able to work harder.

00:25:05.000 So it's like they used to think training and sleeping at altitude is the move.

00:25:10.000 But now they think actually it's probably better.

00:25:12.000 And maybe this is debated.

00:25:14.000 I'm not sure if there's a consensus is out.

00:25:17.000 But I think what they're saying now is train at sea level and then sleep at altitude.

00:25:25.000 Which makes sense.

00:25:26.000 It makes sense.

00:25:27.000 Yeah.

00:25:28.000 That's for people that's already training.

00:25:30.000 Yeah, definitely.

00:25:31.000 Yeah.

00:25:32.000 Definitely.

00:25:34.000 I run out of breath just going up to altitude.

00:25:36.000 That's why Denver, whenever you go to Denver, like I love doing comedy there, but it's so, it's so dry.

00:25:43.000 It's dry.

00:25:44.000 It's so dry.

00:25:44.000 Your boogers get sharp.

00:25:46.000 Yeah, your nose starts to bleed.

00:25:46.000 Yep.

00:25:48.000 Yeah, your skin is all flaky.

00:25:50.000 There's no air.

00:25:52.000 And then, you know, you can get higher than that, too.

00:25:54.000 You can go to Aspen.

00:25:55.000 When they used to have the Aspen Comedy Festival, they used to have oxygen waiting for you backstage.

00:26:01.000 Word.

00:26:02.000 Yeah, in case dudes started fainting.

00:26:04.000 Why'd they stop that?

00:26:05.000 I don't know.

00:26:06.000 I think, you know, they stopped a bunch of those comedy festivals.

00:26:10.000 Where was the original one?

00:26:11.000 Was in Montreal.

00:26:12.000 And then they started doing an Aspen.

00:26:14.000 And I think they did it in Vegas too for a while, if I remember correctly.

00:26:18.000 That was the same people.

00:26:19.000 But it used to see, those things used to be effective.

00:26:22.000 It used to be you would, you know, take time off the road, go to Montreal, do your best set, and maybe you'd get a development deal.

00:26:29.000 And if you got a development deal, maybe you get a sitcom.

00:26:31.000 That was a whole, that was the carrot that they dangled on the end of the stick.

00:26:34.000 Career changing.

00:26:35.000 Yeah.

00:26:36.000 Like for some people, it was career changing.

00:26:38.000 It really was.

00:26:39.000 But that stopped.

00:26:41.000 And then so it was like, why are we going to these festivals?

00:26:44.000 Because I'm not getting anything out of this other than you selling tickets.

00:26:47.000 Well, I think that that's happened.

00:26:49.000 That happened.

00:26:50.000 What happened to most of the institutions in comedy or just show business period is the people that used to be the tastemakers, the people that used to tell the business who was next.

00:27:02.000 I think people get, because this happens all the time.

00:27:05.000 There'll be some good, there'll be somebody will start a comedy show, then all of a sudden somebody will make it from that show, and then it becomes the show in the scene in the city.

00:27:14.000 And then they start wanting to maintain that reputation.

00:27:17.000 So instead of them just fucking with who they believe in, they'll wait to see who has a little momentum.

00:27:24.000 So they kind of give it up.

00:27:26.000 They wait for the industry to tell them who's popping.

00:27:29.000 Right.

00:27:30.000 And yeah, it happened to the store.

00:27:31.000 It happened to JFL.

00:27:32.000 It happened to all these places.

00:27:33.000 And maybe people are, maybe it's coming back now.

00:27:35.000 But you also have to realize who are these people.

00:27:37.000 They're just people that got jobs working for whatever media company that is, whether it's NBC or Netflix or whatever it is.

00:27:44.000 They're just people that got jobs.

00:27:46.000 They might not have any idea like how a joke is made, what the process is of developing material, who's got talent, who's derivative.

00:27:56.000 They might not have any idea.

00:27:58.000 But what they do is they lick their fucking finger and they hold it up.

00:28:02.000 And whichever way the wind's blowing, they pretend they're a genius.

00:28:05.000 And that's what they do.

00:28:07.000 And oftentimes, they'll dismiss someone who turns out to be the best one of the lot.

00:28:12.000 It's real common, man.

00:28:14.000 And then they always want to stand by those ideas.

00:28:16.000 Like, I don't see it.

00:28:17.000 And like, okay, the guy's fucking selling out arenas.

00:28:20.000 I think you missed it.

00:28:21.000 But it happens a lot.

00:28:23.000 It happens a lot with these folks because they're not artists.

00:28:27.000 They're just business people and they're pretending to be artists.

00:28:30.000 It's weird.

00:28:30.000 Like, some of them give you advice.

00:28:31.000 But some people do have, like, there's a talent for dealing with talent that some people do have.

00:28:40.000 Adam Eag.

00:28:41.000 Right.

00:28:42.000 Adam Egot's a perfect example.

00:28:44.000 Because Adam is an artist whose job is to be a talent coordinator.

00:28:49.000 But he's genuinely an artist.

00:28:51.000 Like, he gets it.

00:28:52.000 He thinks like a comic.

00:28:54.000 He behaves like a comic.

00:28:55.000 He was a funny co-host of Norm McDonald's show.

00:28:58.000 You know, when Norm had that show, Adam was on that show with him.

00:29:02.000 Like, he gets it.

00:29:03.000 He understands the business.

00:29:04.000 He'll hit you with a zinger from time to time.

00:29:06.000 It's a funny dude.

00:29:07.000 Yeah, he got a couple in the chamber.

00:29:08.000 He's a funny dude, but he's also a smart dude.

00:29:11.000 And he knows potential.

00:29:14.000 He sees someone and he can give them genuinely good advice.

00:29:17.000 Like, genuinely, like, you could take this and develop it this way.

00:29:21.000 Maybe you need to work on this.

00:29:22.000 Maybe you need to, you know.

00:29:24.000 But you know, more importantly, I think he has the courage of his convictions.

00:29:28.000 Where it's like, like, when I first got to Hollywood, you know, I went over, you know, I went everywhere at least once or twice.

00:29:35.000 And, you know, some people, you know, people like, come back next week, or, you know, you got to wait till this time or whatever.

00:29:42.000 Everyone saw me at least once.

00:29:43.000 Adam saw me.

00:29:44.000 He was the only person that was like, come back next week.

00:29:46.000 Like, you get a spot next week.

00:29:49.000 It's because he gets it.

00:29:49.000 Right.

00:29:50.000 Yeah.

00:29:51.000 Yeah.

00:29:51.000 And like he started, he started fucking with me immediately.

00:29:54.000 And it wasn't any hesitation at all.

00:29:55.000 It was like from the time I met him, I was just getting spots at the store.

00:29:59.000 Yeah.

00:30:00.000 Yeah.

00:30:00.000 And so to do that, to have that belief in your eye, you know, instead of needing other people's because of how most of show business works is everybody's just, no one wants to be the first one on your dick, but no one wants to be the last one.

00:30:15.000 So even if they see something they think is dope, they'll be like, does anybody else think it's dope?

00:30:19.000 Okay, me neither.

00:30:19.000 Right.

00:30:19.000 No?

00:30:20.000 Right.

00:30:21.000 You know, but then as soon as a couple of people think it's dope, then it was like, I all I saw it six months ago.

00:30:26.000 It's like, you know, it's that kind of shit.

00:30:28.000 Yeah, that's where they're pretending they have talent.

00:30:28.000 So.

00:30:30.000 Yes.

00:30:30.000 They're talent.

00:30:31.000 But the problem is, you don't have to have the talent talent to be in a position of that, to be in a position.

00:30:37.000 No, you don't.

00:30:38.000 You can just get a job and they need someone to do it.

00:30:40.000 And if you sell yourself, and if you worked, you know, in production before or you did something as an agent or whatever the fuck it is, you're in the business.

00:30:49.000 Suffer under some tyrant.

00:30:51.000 There's a lot of that.

00:30:52.000 Yeah.

00:30:53.000 There's a lot of that.

00:30:54.000 A lot of suffering under tyrants.

00:30:55.000 And then these guys, they wind up, you know, fucking ruining companies because they don't know what, like, how many terrible specials have you seen that just fit the right demographic?

00:31:07.000 Fit this like silly thing.

00:31:09.000 Like, that was another problem that Adam was having at the store is that he couldn't just give spots to the people that he thought was funny.

00:31:19.000 It's there was pressure to make a certain amount of gay people on the set, a certain amount of women, a certain amount of they had like people telling him he didn't have enough of certain demographics.

00:31:31.000 But where's the pressure coming from?

00:31:33.000 Oh, I don't know.

00:31:34.000 It was coming from, you know, I don't want to talk out of school.

00:31:37.000 But it wasn't just comics.

00:31:37.000 Okay.

00:31:41.000 There was, you know, people that were buying into it.

00:31:44.000 And that's nonsense.

00:31:47.000 My mind immediately went to something silly.

00:31:50.000 He just wakes up, there's a dildo on his pillow with a note.

00:31:55.000 No, he was being told.

00:31:58.000 He was being told.

00:31:59.000 And it's just like, you know, there's a lot of vicious people in this fucking business.

00:32:04.000 And if you're a guy and your job is working at a club and that's all you got.

00:32:09.000 And, you know, all of a sudden that job is threatened because people are complaining about you and they think that you're not doing your best to make the lineup more diverse.

00:32:18.000 Which is like, it's so silly because this is the thing that we always talk about in the green room.

00:32:24.000 Like, look how diverse that club is.

00:32:26.000 There's everybody there.

00:32:28.000 Like, all kinds of different kinds of people.

00:32:31.000 And the idea that like it's one thing, this is the most dumb straw man that gets tossed around.

00:32:36.000 Like, it's all right-wing comedy club.

00:32:38.000 The vast majority of the people that work there are left-wing people.

00:32:41.000 Vast majority.

00:32:42.000 That's a fact.

00:32:43.000 It's a fact.

00:32:44.000 Yeah.

00:32:44.000 And you can't, like, you can't tie it down.

00:32:47.000 You know, it's all white males.

00:32:48.000 That's bullshit.

00:32:49.000 There's all kinds of people there.

00:32:51.000 There's Arabs and Muslim people.

00:32:53.000 There's people from India.

00:32:54.000 There's people from Asia.

00:32:56.000 There's black people, white people, Australians.

00:32:58.000 There's people from fucking everywhere at that club.

00:33:01.000 And just there's one thing in common only.

00:33:04.000 Do you love comedy?

00:33:05.000 Are you trying to get better?

00:33:06.000 Are you funny?

00:33:07.000 There is something to be said about being aware of your blind spots.

00:33:12.000 But I don't think that the way Hollywood always does diversity is wrong because they'll go, instead of going to find, they'll go, we're missing this slice of the pie.

00:33:23.000 Instead of going and finding the funniest people, they'll just pick anyone.

00:33:30.000 And I don't know if that always, this is almost never the best way to do it.

00:33:34.000 It's never the best way.

00:33:35.000 It's like the same thing for neurosurgeons.

00:33:38.000 If you're like, you know, I'm really looking for a Danish woman neurosurgeon.

00:33:42.000 Like, no, no, no.

00:33:43.000 You have a brain tumor.

00:33:44.000 I want to really want a Danish woman.

00:33:44.000 Like, no, no, no.

00:33:46.000 Like, no, no.

00:33:47.000 You got to get the best guy.

00:33:48.000 The best guy's a Chinese guy.

00:33:50.000 We found him.

00:33:51.000 He was out of Harvard.

00:33:52.000 This guy.

00:33:52.000 No, no, no.

00:33:54.000 Like, that's crazy.

00:33:55.000 And that's the same thing with everything.

00:33:56.000 It's like, it should be a meritocracy.

00:33:58.000 And I think ultimately you're going to have examples of all sorts of different kinds of people that rise to the top in a true meritocracy.

00:34:07.000 I mean, but the well, the pendulum always swings both back and forth, but it's almost never a meritocracy.

00:34:15.000 In comedy?

00:34:16.000 Or just, I'm just talking about America.

00:34:18.000 Comedy is one of the only things where it's a genuine meritocracy.

00:34:21.000 Oh, yeah.

00:34:21.000 Well, when it comes to the crowd, you can't cheat.

00:34:24.000 You can't cheat.

00:34:25.000 No.

00:34:26.000 It is what it is.

00:34:27.000 Unless you're stealing.

00:34:28.000 That's the only thing.

00:34:29.000 If someone's a joke thief.

00:34:30.000 Or unless you're a fucking hack.

00:34:33.000 You can get away with a lot.

00:34:34.000 But you can't get away with a lot with your peers, right?

00:34:36.000 You can't, like, your peers won't like you.

00:34:39.000 They won't want to be around.

00:34:40.000 They won't want to go on the road with you with your whack-ass jokes.

00:34:43.000 No.

00:34:45.000 Unless you're super famous.

00:34:47.000 People are just holding their nose and go on the road with you.

00:34:49.000 That's true.

00:34:49.000 There's a few.

00:34:50.000 There's a few that will do that.

00:34:52.000 But ultimately, though, when it comes to sustaining a career and having years and years of people coming out to see you and multiple specials and stuff like that, it either works or it doesn't work.

00:35:07.000 That's it.

00:35:08.000 It's real simple.

00:35:09.000 Once people find out about you, now you've got your foot in the door.

00:35:13.000 And it's all just about keeping it on the gas.

00:35:15.000 Keep your foot on the gas and keep producing.

00:35:18.000 Keep making stuff.

00:35:19.000 Keep writing.

00:35:20.000 Keep working on sets.

00:35:21.000 And if you're working for those people, they'll keep showing up for you because you made them laugh.

00:35:27.000 I hope that stays true.

00:35:28.000 Because it's the only thing I'm good at.

00:35:32.000 I'm bad at everything except my comedy.

00:35:37.000 Well, you're really good at your comedy, though.

00:35:39.000 Some people never get really good at anything.

00:35:41.000 But I feel like every year you have to be good at something else.

00:35:46.000 No.

00:35:46.000 Editing, sketches, scripts.

00:35:49.000 They want you to act.

00:35:50.000 They want you to.

00:35:52.000 You don't.

00:35:54.000 Look at David Tell.

00:35:55.000 He does one thing.

00:35:56.000 Does one thing.

00:35:57.000 Stand-up comedy.

00:35:58.000 Everybody loves him.

00:35:59.000 He's amazing.

00:36:00.000 Yeah, fat.

00:36:01.000 Does one thing.

00:36:02.000 That's it.

00:36:03.000 I mean, that dude doesn't even go on social media at all, which is the only reason why he's not selling out enormous arenas.

00:36:09.000 When we had him at the club last weekend, everybody's like, dude, he's the best.

00:36:13.000 He might be, he's one of the best of all time.

00:36:16.000 And he's working clubs.

00:36:17.000 I mean, a lot of people put him at the very top.

00:36:19.000 He's up there, dude.

00:36:21.000 It's like, it's kind of silly to rank comedians.

00:36:24.000 Yeah.

00:36:24.000 Right.

00:36:24.000 And every comic that's alive today owes a debt of gratitude to the people that came before us.

00:36:30.000 We all do, because it's a relatively new art form.

00:36:33.000 Yeah.

00:36:34.000 I mean, I go by joke, by joke, by joke.

00:36:36.000 I don't really have a favorite comedian, but there's some bits out there where I'm like, that's fucking.

00:36:41.000 And some of those come from, you know, a few of them come from the same people.

00:36:46.000 But it tells one of those people where you just, sometimes you're just in awe.

00:36:50.000 Yeah.

00:36:51.000 You know?

00:36:51.000 Beautiful.

00:36:52.000 I love getting to watch a comic to make you go, God damn, I need to just ball my shit up and fucking throw it away.

00:36:52.000 But I love that.

00:36:58.000 Yeah.

00:36:58.000 That's the best feeling.

00:37:00.000 That's where the fire starts burning and gets you going.

00:37:03.000 You need to feel that.

00:37:04.000 That's why comics don't exist in a vacuum.

00:37:07.000 You know, we were talking about this the other day that we were talking about like McCann.

00:37:12.000 So McCann is in this thing where he might have to move.

00:37:14.000 And we're like, bro, you got to stay.

00:37:15.000 Like you're killing it and you're getting funnier.

00:37:18.000 You're like funnier all the time.

00:37:19.000 And I think one of the reasons why is what you're around.

00:37:22.000 Comics don't exist in a vacuum.

00:37:25.000 You're not going to go to like South Dakota and find the best comic that no one's ever seen.

00:37:29.000 The best comic in the world lives in South Dakota by himself.

00:37:32.000 And he's, you know, he works at this little local comedy club and everybody comes to see him from miles around.

00:37:37.000 No.

00:37:38.000 The best comics are around other killers.

00:37:41.000 You get to see a guy like David Tell go up and you're like, God damn.

00:37:44.000 You get to see Shane Gillis go up.

00:37:45.000 You go, God damn.

00:37:46.000 You get to see Joey Diaz.

00:37:47.000 You get to see all these fucking killers over and over and over again.

00:37:50.000 And when you're around that, you see Ron White every week.

00:37:54.000 Like, that's how you get better.

00:37:56.000 Like, that's where it's all.

00:37:57.000 Dan McCann brings the heat.

00:37:58.000 He brings the heat, dude.

00:37:59.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:38:00.000 He's fucking talented and he's smart and he's a great guy and he's fucking just a curious, interesting thinker.

00:38:07.000 And he's got a zany delivery.

00:38:12.000 Yeah.

00:38:12.000 Like whenever I follow McCann, he always brings me up like he auctioned enslaves.

00:38:18.000 Brad!

00:38:20.000 Sips it.

00:38:21.000 You know, he says my name like Leonardo DiCaprio and Django.

00:38:24.000 Ah, Brad.

00:38:28.000 Watch, we're going to get that on tape somewhere.

00:38:30.000 Yeah, we'll get that tonight.

00:38:32.000 Well, I'll bring him in tonight.

00:38:34.000 Oh, yeah.

00:38:35.000 Is he coming in now?

00:38:37.000 I think so.

00:38:38.000 I got to text him as soon as we get out of here.

00:38:39.000 Oh, speaking of the comedy, my Don't Tell shit came out this week.

00:39:23.000 How's that possible?

00:39:23.000 You know what I mean?

00:39:24.000 Well, there's just too many things to pay attention to.

00:39:41.000 I've officially reached unk status.

00:39:43.000 Yeah, i'm unknatus for sure.

00:39:44.000 I'm on grandpa status, Grandpa Joe.

00:39:46.000 Grandpa Joe doesn't know anything because i'm not looking.

00:39:49.000 The thing is i'm not at the point like i'm not looking for new stuff, so if the kids don't tell me yeah, i'm not looking either.

00:39:55.000 But then that makes me feel old.

00:39:57.000 You know yeah, there'll be, it'll be somebody that's like world famous and i'm like who the fuck is that?

00:40:02.000 Yeah, like I completely missed the um, the baby Shark thing.

00:40:02.000 I know?

00:40:07.000 I just started hearing people talk about it in jokes.

00:40:10.000 Baby shark yeah, apparently it's like the number one youtube.

00:40:13.000 It's the most streamed youtube video right, Jamie?

00:40:16.000 I mean, this is a couple years ago guys, but it's it's still number one now.

00:40:20.000 Right, missed it.

00:40:22.000 Baby shark doot doot, do do.

00:40:23.000 Oh, baby shark doot doot, do do.

00:40:26.000 I literally hadn't heard that song.

00:40:29.000 It had been out for maybe a year and a half and I hadn't heard anything about it.

00:40:32.000 I just heard a comic making jokes about it, and usually when something's in the pop culture, everyone will be trying to have their own thing.

00:40:39.000 And I heard another comic say a joke about it.

00:40:40.000 I'm like what the is that?

00:40:42.000 And, sure enough.

00:40:43.000 It's like I completely missed it.

00:40:44.000 How could I?

00:40:45.000 That makes sense.

00:40:45.000 I mean, I don't have kids.

00:40:46.000 That's what it is.

00:40:47.000 Okay this, is it that video?

00:40:50.000 That's a big video.

00:40:51.000 I've never seen that video.

00:40:53.000 The world's most watched Youtube video hasn't made its creator rich.

00:40:56.000 What huh, how come, HOLD ON?

00:40:59.000 UH, company behind ubiquitous song is hampered by ad restrictions on children's content.

00:41:04.000 Wants to raise funds for expansion.

00:41:06.000 What does that mean?

00:41:07.000 Raise funds?

00:41:08.000 You had one viral video.

00:41:09.000 You ain't a company.

00:41:10.000 16.4 billion views, oh that's.

00:41:13.000 And they can't make money.

00:41:15.000 This is roughly equivalent to Taylor Swift's 10 most popular youtube videos combined.

00:41:20.000 Whoa yeah, last year, the company generated equivalent of about 67 million dollars in revenue, including earnings from Youtube.

00:41:27.000 But wait a minute, that's a lot.

00:41:28.000 That's a lot.

00:41:30.000 So it seems like they are making money.

00:41:32.000 I don't understand.

00:41:34.000 Is it saying the quandary underscores how certain restrictions scroll up a little?

00:41:39.000 I think we must have missed something yet.

00:41:40.000 But why is it?

00:41:41.000 It doesn't make any sense that the company hasn't made any money.

00:41:43.000 It's saying they made money.

00:41:44.000 That am I. Am I reading that wrong?

00:41:47.000 Uh, revenue isn't the same as making money, though.

00:41:50.000 What revenue is just money?

00:41:53.000 And they could have.

00:41:54.000 So their expenses are so high.

00:41:56.000 They could have spent a lot on ads to get it out there.

00:41:58.000 That's what it could be going into saying.

00:41:59.000 I don't know no, but i'm guessing 16 billion views probably should make you more than that.

00:42:02.000 Is that what they're trying to say?

00:42:04.000 So revenue is your?

00:42:06.000 Oh no no, that's how much money they made total, including what they got from Youtube.

00:42:10.000 It that's not just from youtube.

00:42:12.000 Oh, so they make money from other stuff.

00:42:14.000 Yeah, they probably hit like probably licensed it out and stuff like that.

00:42:17.000 So scroll up so you see the little graph there it says life.

00:42:20.000 I mean, scroll down, sorry.

00:42:21.000 So, operating profit revenue.

00:42:23.000 So they're making a lot more money.

00:42:26.000 Oh yeah, but that's that's South Korean won.

00:42:30.000 Yeah, falling down the wrong hole.

00:42:36.000 No Joe's, like bring back the Ai.

00:42:38.000 Yeah, I don't know what that is like.

00:42:40.000 Like that baby shark thing.

00:42:42.000 Like why would, why would one thing catch like that?

00:42:46.000 Because it's, because it's something for kids and people love ignoring their kids.

00:42:49.000 You just play that, put that shit on and kids are obsessed.

00:42:51.000 Can't just be that, because there's so many things that kids can watch, it can't be just that.

00:42:55.000 It's got to be.

00:42:56.000 There's some remember that banana song, banana phone, ring banana phone.

00:43:03.000 No, it was like.

00:43:03.000 I never heard that before.

00:43:04.000 It was like in the 2000s.

00:43:06.000 It became like really popular.

00:43:08.000 I think it was popular on Opi And Anthony.

00:43:10.000 They kept playing it.

00:43:10.000 It was like really catchy, totally innocent, and then it was like everywhere for like three or four weeks and then it went away and I always wonder like what?

00:43:18.000 What the fuck?

00:43:19.000 Is it where something just catches fire?

00:43:21.000 I don't know.

00:43:22.000 Remember when Tickle Me Elmo, because what was the last time we had a viral holiday toy like, where it was the toy everyone had to have?

00:43:30.000 Tickle the lobos.

00:43:31.000 It's not holidays, but those laboo boos were pretty viral.

00:43:35.000 Yeah, people love the laboo boos.

00:43:36.000 And I don't get it.

00:43:36.000 Why, though?

00:43:38.000 Is this like what?

00:43:38.000 Are they collectors?

00:43:39.000 Because they know AI is about to take over the world, and they know the aliens are landing, and Jesus Christ is coming back, and they just are freaking out.

00:43:46.000 They're just buying stuffed animals.

00:43:48.000 They don't know what the fuck they're doing.

00:43:49.000 They're just following the lead.

00:43:50.000 So a laboo boo is just a stuffed animal.

00:43:52.000 I don't know.

00:43:53.000 I hear about them.

00:43:54.000 My brain shuts off.

00:43:56.000 There's a little bit of gambling involved.

00:43:58.000 It's a mystery.

00:43:59.000 You don't know what's inside the box that you bought, and then people can sell those boxes based off of what could be inside.

00:44:05.000 Is it a stuffed animal?

00:44:06.000 A stuffed animal, then you got to gut your stuffed animal to find out a box.

00:44:06.000 Yeah.

00:44:11.000 It's in a box, it's in a package, and then you don't know what's inside.

00:44:13.000 So you just buy a labo-boo without knowing which one you're going to get.

00:44:17.000 And you might get a limited edition one inside.

00:44:19.000 It's like a real-life loot box.

00:44:20.000 That's a limited edition.

00:44:21.000 It's like genie babies.

00:44:22.000 Without knowing what you got before, and you might get the Princess Die one.

00:44:25.000 That's brilliant.

00:44:26.000 You could get a limited edition laboo boo.

00:44:30.000 And other than that?

00:44:31.000 How much is it to buy a mystery labooboo?

00:44:33.000 It could be 20 bucks.

00:44:34.000 It could be 50.

00:44:35.000 Let's take a guess.

00:44:36.000 How much do you think it costs to get a laboo boo?

00:44:39.000 Retail.

00:44:40.000 I'm going to say 40 bucks.

00:44:42.000 40 bucks.

00:44:43.000 Yeah, I think I'm with you.

00:44:44.000 I was going to say 36.

00:44:46.000 And after that, how much do you think it is a resale?

00:44:48.000 That's a cost to get them, yeah.

00:44:51.000 I bet it's like buying one of them, like a hot new car.

00:44:55.000 So retail is $28, $27.99.

00:44:57.000 Okay.

00:44:58.000 $30.

00:44:58.000 Okay.

00:44:59.000 And then what does it cost online if you want to buy one right now?

00:45:03.000 I need a laboo boo.

00:45:04.000 Like a mystery.

00:45:06.000 A mystery laboo boo.

00:45:07.000 What do I get?

00:45:08.000 Are you Googling it?

00:45:09.000 Yeah, yeah, it's going to turn off my ring.

00:45:12.000 Up to 80 to 120.

00:45:13.000 Oh, well, a few human-sized auction pieces.

00:45:13.000 It's not that bad.

00:45:17.000 Oh, that's big.

00:45:18.000 $100,000.

00:45:19.000 Wait a minute.

00:45:19.000 They have human-sized laboo?

00:45:21.000 I didn't know that.

00:45:22.000 Jesus Christ.

00:45:22.000 What?

00:45:23.000 That is so ridiculous.

00:45:25.000 What is someone doing with a human-sized labooboo who's fucking their laboo boo?

00:45:28.000 Because you know someone is.

00:45:29.000 Let me see what the labo-oos look like.

00:45:31.000 Is this something like a furry would fuck?

00:45:33.000 Let me try to go with a human-sized labooboo.

00:45:36.000 Human-sized.

00:45:37.000 Oh, you hear the latest that that dude who shot Trump might have been a furry?

00:45:42.000 Yeah, I saw that.

00:45:43.000 I found some more stuff.

00:45:44.000 What?

00:45:44.000 Yeah.

00:45:45.000 They think he was a furry.

00:45:45.000 That's like an art piece.

00:45:46.000 It's not really quite, you know.

00:45:48.000 Well, that's not really human-sized either.

00:45:51.000 Human-sized labo-build dolls sold for $150,000.

00:45:54.000 Let me see what it looks like.

00:45:54.000 But what they mean might have been a furry.

00:45:56.000 I feel like you would know or not know that.

00:45:59.000 They're finding stuff.

00:46:00.000 Like, let's find out.

00:46:03.000 Yeah.

00:46:04.000 There's the big luboo boo.

00:46:04.000 There it is.

00:46:06.000 Whatever.

00:46:06.000 This lady invented them.

00:46:08.000 She invented the laboo boo?

00:46:11.000 Again, how?

00:46:12.000 How does that work?

00:46:13.000 How's that catch on?

00:46:14.000 How's that catch on?

00:46:15.000 Like, Build-A-Bear has been in the fucking mall forever.

00:46:17.000 I mean, I think I know what it is.

00:46:19.000 It's probably some fucking hot, smoking-hot K-pop star.

00:46:24.000 Probably they saw her with one on.

00:46:26.000 You know, there's certain women where they follow, and anytime she does any fashion thing, it just spreads like wildfire.

00:46:32.000 Yeah, there's a thing that does happen whenever a popular person starts wearing a thing.

00:46:37.000 Yeah, they literally tricked all women into wearing and then wanting a diamond.

00:46:41.000 Well, you remember when she looked in the actress to do it.

00:46:43.000 Judas Priest had everybody dressing up like a gay motorcycle gang member.

00:46:48.000 What?

00:46:49.000 Yeah.

00:46:49.000 That started with Judas Priest?

00:46:50.000 Yeah.

00:46:51.000 Rob Halford from Judas Priest is gay.

00:46:53.000 Like openly gay.

00:46:55.000 And now, at least, you know, I don't know if he was back then, but he dressed like a gay biker.

00:47:01.000 Like, and that became like metal.

00:47:05.000 Oh, because Judas Priest was so good, they wanted to dress like this gay guy who dressed like a gay guy who'd go to like a gay biker club.

00:47:15.000 Yeah, it smells like hot women around the world.

00:47:17.000 Because dudes will do, dudes will do anything that they think, yeah, we'll get them laid.

00:47:24.000 And women will do anything that a pretty woman does.

00:47:27.000 That's true.

00:47:28.000 Anything to make yourself look prettier, too.

00:47:30.000 And so it's like, because all of the dudes now talking all that gay shit, they was dressing like that in the 70s and the 80s, like earrings and makeup and purses and all of that.

00:47:40.000 Bell bottoms, big collars.

00:47:42.000 Yeah, because they thought it was going to get them late.

00:47:43.000 Flouncy shirts.

00:47:44.000 You could dress like Prince.

00:47:45.000 You could dress like Little Richard.

00:47:47.000 That's right.

00:47:48.000 Yeah.

00:47:49.000 Anything that works.

00:47:50.000 Platform shoes.

00:47:52.000 Anything.

00:47:52.000 Anything that works.

00:47:53.000 Okay.

00:47:54.000 Thomas Crooks used they-them pronouns, had obsession with political violence and muscle mommies.

00:47:59.000 Uh-oh, that's what I like.

00:48:00.000 Yeah, what's wrong?

00:48:08.000 I like a woman that can move a cow.

00:48:11.000 I do.

00:48:12.000 The lone sniper who grazed Trump in the ear, killed a beloved firefighter, critically wounded two other Trump supporters, apparently had a muscle mommy fetish and repeatedly searched for videos about female bodybuilders and muscular women.

00:48:24.000 But what was the furry stuff, though?

00:48:26.000 I was reading some furry stuff.

00:48:29.000 Crooks had two accounts on two possible accounts on DeviantArt, a site that hosts fan art, has become notorious for its community of furries.

00:48:38.000 People who identify as anthropomorphized animal characters are sexually attracted to them.

00:48:46.000 They ever tell you about the time that I accidentally stumbled on a furry convention.

00:48:49.000 No.

00:48:51.000 We were flying into Pittsburgh for a UFC.

00:48:54.000 One of DeviantArt accounts, linked to Crooks, shared just one post reposting of a towering, muscular female bodybuilder and a slight man in his underwear.

00:49:05.000 Yeah, I'm all up.

00:49:06.000 Yeah.

00:49:07.000 That's like our crumb type stuff.

00:49:10.000 Hilarious.

00:49:11.000 Yeah, I don't kink shame.

00:49:13.000 I don't kink shame either.

00:49:14.000 No.

00:49:15.000 Have fun.

00:49:16.000 Me and Duncan wore furry outfits once.

00:49:18.000 For the pod?

00:49:19.000 And we had to take the hats off after like five minutes.

00:49:19.000 Yeah.

00:49:22.000 Like, respect to furries.

00:49:24.000 You can walk around all day with this fucking thing on.

00:49:25.000 It was heavy.

00:49:26.000 It was hard to breathe.

00:49:27.000 It was hot.

00:49:28.000 We took it up.

00:49:29.000 Oh, yeah, that's what he likes.

00:49:30.000 Yeah, baby.

00:49:32.000 But who doesn't like that?

00:49:34.000 I don't know.

00:49:34.000 Some little dudes.

00:49:36.000 Some little dudes don't want to be dominated.

00:49:39.000 Don't want some man, some woman to use them like a dildo.

00:49:44.000 When I was, so I was flying into Pittsburgh.

00:49:47.000 We were flying in for a UFC, and we got a rental and we're driving to the hotel.

00:49:52.000 And as we're driving to the hotel, I'm like, why are all these mascots on the street?

00:49:56.000 The fuck's going on?

00:49:57.000 It was real weird.

00:49:58.000 Like, we didn't understand what was going on.

00:49:59.000 This is a while ago, like at least 10 years ago.

00:50:03.000 And we're driving, and I'm like, what the fuck is this?

00:50:06.000 Like, what's going on?

00:50:07.000 We get to the hotel and I'm like, and I go to the guy behind the counter.

00:50:11.000 I go, man, what the fuck is going on?

00:50:13.000 He goes, it's a furry convention.

00:50:14.000 Like, I didn't even, I kind of vaguely knew what a furry was, but I never really dove into it, you know?

00:50:23.000 So I go, what are you talking about?

00:50:25.000 He goes, it's a convention of all these people that get off on dressing like animals.

00:50:29.000 I go, get off.

00:50:30.000 He goes, dude, they're asking us to serve them food in bowls on the ground.

00:50:35.000 Okay.

00:50:36.000 When they get room service, they want their room service in a bowl.

00:50:38.000 They want it put on the ground so they can get on their knees and eat it out of a bowl.

00:50:42.000 And they were asking for a litter box.

00:50:44.000 I know a lot of people don't believe this.

00:50:46.000 Like, because I told the story about a friend of mine who lives in Utah.

00:50:51.000 His wife was a school teacher there.

00:50:53.000 And one of the parents had a child that was a furry, and they wanted to put a litter box in the bathroom.

00:51:01.000 Now, this was entirely relayed to me by my friend who it was relayed to him by his wife who worked in the school.

00:51:10.000 I don't know if it's true, but everybody got so angry and they started saying what I was saying was transphobic.

00:51:15.000 And I got so confused because I was like, this is a couple of years ago.

00:51:18.000 I was like, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait.

00:51:20.000 What does this have to do with trans people?

00:51:21.000 We're talking about someone who wants to shit in a box.

00:51:24.000 Like, where's the trans part of this?

00:51:26.000 So somehow or another, furries and that kink are getting like lumped into this LGBTQTAI plus whatever.

00:51:37.000 And they're trying to like lump furries in there in this debunking of my conspiracy theory.

00:51:44.000 Well, furries are their own.

00:51:46.000 That's what I didn't understand.

00:51:48.000 Some of them is not sexual.

00:51:50.000 But these guys, it was.

00:51:51.000 When I was talking to the guy that worked behind the counter, I was like, what is going on?

00:51:55.000 He goes, dude, he goes, apparently, what these guys like to do is they have like a hatch on the back of their furry outfit.

00:52:02.000 And they like to bang each other without even knowing who they're banging.

00:52:06.000 All they do, they pretend they're banging a giant squirrel and they're into it.

00:52:10.000 And it's apparently like part of the fun is that you don't have to think about your body.

00:52:16.000 Maybe you're ashamed of your body.

00:52:17.000 Maybe you don't like your body.

00:52:18.000 Maybe you're just like, I'd rather someone just fuck me and think I'm a raccoon.

00:52:22.000 And so that's what they do.

00:52:24.000 See, I pray to God I don't find out that that's my kink because it's just too much work.

00:52:28.000 It's a lot of work.

00:52:30.000 The head is heavy.

00:52:31.000 You know?

00:52:33.000 Heavy is the head that carries the thread.

00:52:35.000 Yeah, that's it.

00:52:36.000 Any kink that requires maintenance.

00:52:39.000 That's a lot of washing.

00:52:40.000 You got to wash that furry outfit.

00:52:41.000 And if someone jizzes on it and doesn't tell you.

00:52:43.000 Yeah, but then it might be a subsection of the community where they like it not washed.

00:52:48.000 They want the dirty furries.

00:52:49.000 They over there.

00:52:50.000 Like an animal, like in the woods.

00:52:51.000 They don't wash themselves.

00:52:53.000 Let's go.

00:52:53.000 Come on.

00:52:54.000 We're furries?

00:52:55.000 Are we furries or are we mad?

00:52:56.000 I once had a, I used to work at this pub in San Diego.

00:53:00.000 And one time we had, it was like a, it was like, I don't know if they're a subsect of the furry world, but it's like they're, they're like my little pony people.

00:53:10.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:53:11.000 And what do they call them?

00:53:13.000 Gronies.

00:53:13.000 There's a name for that.

00:53:14.000 Gronies.

00:53:14.000 Bronies.

00:53:15.000 Yeah, it's like a whole bunch of people or something.

00:53:17.000 And they were all very nice and respectful.

00:53:19.000 And you could see, you know, there were a handful of women involved.

00:53:23.000 And you could see everybody trying to angle for the, but they took, they just, they filled up our pub.

00:53:29.000 And these are all the My Little Pony people.

00:53:32.000 Yeah.

00:53:33.000 Documentary that was like 10 years, 12 years.

00:53:35.000 And bro.

00:53:36.000 And they're hardcore.

00:53:37.000 Like, they don't tolerate any teasing whatsoever.

00:53:40.000 Like, if you try to come at them about it, it's going to be a problem.

00:53:46.000 You know, like.

00:53:47.000 You got to be able to take some teasing.

00:53:49.000 Yes.

00:53:50.000 If you want me to take you seriously?

00:53:51.000 I'm telling you, bro, they're going to throw hoofs immediately.

00:53:55.000 They're throwing hoofs.

00:53:56.000 People will find a thing that they're really into, no matter what it is.

00:54:00.000 They will find a fucking thing that they're really into.

00:54:03.000 But that's the reason, that's why I don't kink Shane because I'm like, hey, man, if you just be lucky that all the things that make you come are things you consider normal.

00:54:12.000 You know what I mean?

00:54:13.000 Right.

00:54:14.000 Because I feel bad.

00:54:14.000 Like, imagine if you found out.

00:54:17.000 Right, that that was your thing.

00:54:18.000 Yeah, you could only, you could only get off if you was dressed as a wolf.

00:55:57.000 I think it's a psychological thing, but they don't like who they really are.

00:56:00.000 I mean, that's that's if I had to guess what the furry thing is.

00:56:03.000 I don't think there's any well-I mean, I don't know.

00:56:05.000 Maybe there's some well-balanced furries out there that just have a weird thing.

00:56:08.000 But I think most of them just don't like who they are.

00:56:10.000 And so they just want to hide in this thing that's all smiley.

00:56:13.000 And hi, kids.

00:56:14.000 You know, you look like a fucking some sort of a giant animal.

00:56:19.000 See, I have a theory.

00:56:21.000 I think whatever, I think the first time you encounter something sexual, whatever's happening gets like burned into your shit.

00:56:30.000 That's called imprinting.

00:56:32.000 Like, like, I got a homie that's like into like, you know, the BDSM world and stuff like that.

00:56:32.000 Yeah.

00:56:40.000 And he has no idea.

00:56:41.000 And I was like, well, how did you know that?

00:56:42.000 He was like, oh, I have no idea.

00:56:43.000 And then, you know, years later, without completely unrelated, he's telling me one time about him looking for Christmas presents and going in the back of his parents' closet and finding a whole chest of, you know, whips and chains and shit like that when he was like six or seven years old.

00:56:58.000 He didn't make the connection.

00:56:59.000 We're just like, oh, yeah, well, that's why you're.

00:57:02.000 Yeah, duh.

00:57:03.000 Parents are into whips and chains and shit.

00:57:05.000 And I don't know if that had to happen because I think your kinks are genetic.

00:57:08.000 Really?

00:57:09.000 Yeah.

00:57:10.000 Why do you think that?

00:57:11.000 I think I've read that, right?

00:57:12.000 Well, I think some information is probably passed down from parents to kids.

00:57:16.000 And I would imagine kinks could be in there.

00:57:19.000 Because artistic talent is passed down.

00:57:22.000 Obviously, athletic talent is often passed down.

00:57:25.000 It would make sense.

00:57:26.000 I bet a lot of they don't know exactly what you're giving to your kids.

00:57:31.000 Well, let's find out because if it's true, I mean, that's going to make you look at your mama real different.

00:57:35.000 Right.

00:57:38.000 You don't want to know that.

00:57:39.000 That's horrible.

00:57:40.000 Yeah, but I pity the poor people that have accidentally walked in on their parents fucking.

00:57:46.000 You never did that?

00:57:46.000 What?

00:57:47.000 No.

00:57:48.000 No.

00:57:49.000 The horror.

00:57:49.000 Me neither.

00:57:50.000 No, actually, that's not true.

00:57:52.000 I never walked in, but I definitely knew that that's what was happening.

00:57:56.000 I can block that out.

00:57:57.000 Read.

00:57:58.000 You can't block out the visual.

00:57:59.000 Because you've definitely touched the doorknob and been like, your dad with his feet up in your air, your mom eating his ass.

00:58:05.000 No, no way.

00:58:06.000 I don't have no visuals.

00:58:07.000 Your dad's stroking it while your mom's eating his ass.

00:58:09.000 Like, no, no, no, no, no.

00:58:11.000 No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:58:12.000 Oh, God.

00:58:14.000 Yeah, see, there you go.

00:58:15.000 I can't live anymore like that.

00:58:18.000 I can't go through this world.

00:58:19.000 I'm going to have to get electroshock therapy.

00:58:22.000 But imagine if you walk in and what would have to happen for you to be a furry?

00:58:27.000 What would you have to see?

00:58:28.000 I don't think it's that.

00:58:30.000 I think it's, I think probably, there's probably some social disorder involved in some of those folks, too.

00:58:37.000 There's like furry lights, which my kids go to school with.

00:58:40.000 There's some kids that wear like ears and like maybe a tail.

00:58:45.000 And every now and then you see one of those.

00:58:47.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:58:48.000 This Bronia thing might have started as a 4chan troll that's probably too far.

00:58:53.000 4chan rules.

00:58:54.000 Out of control, like a few other things have done.

00:58:56.000 I can't tell.

00:58:56.000 They're the best.

00:58:57.000 Do you see what they did with the free flow, a free bleeding project?

00:59:01.000 What is that?

00:59:02.000 Hold on, wait.

00:59:03.000 They tricked women into thinking that it's like a sign of feminism to just bleed and not have a tampon or a maxi pad.

00:59:09.000 Oh, like old school.

00:59:11.000 You just let it go.

00:59:12.000 Free bleeding.

00:59:13.000 And so they did it as a joke.

00:59:15.000 And then some women adopted it who thought it was like, you know, radical feminists.

00:59:21.000 Crazy ladies.

00:59:22.000 So now free bleeding is like a trend?

00:59:24.000 No, it didn't last.

00:59:25.000 It's disgusting.

00:59:26.000 It's probably totally unsanitary.

00:59:27.000 You smell like fish.

00:59:29.000 It's hell.

00:59:30.000 You have a pussy blood running down your fucking pants and you're showing up at the office.

00:59:35.000 You expect to keep your job here at United Health?

00:59:37.000 Get out of here.

00:59:38.000 I don't think anybody was showing up at no offices.

00:59:40.000 Those are definitely kids with no jobs.

00:59:42.000 At Starbucks, you're showing up at Starbucks.

00:59:44.000 Oh, that's not real.

00:59:45.000 No way.

00:59:46.000 That lady would die.

00:59:48.000 She would literally be dead.

00:59:49.000 That's like if you shot her with a fucking arrow.

00:59:51.000 The thing is, there's no.

00:59:53.000 Is this lady free bleeding?

00:59:55.000 These were the 4chan posts of people trying to share it.

00:59:58.000 That it was real.

00:59:59.000 I'm not putting this on this.

01:00:00.000 But that could be a lady that's just doing a marathon and forgot a tampon.

01:00:03.000 It's like, fuck it, I'm going to push through it.

01:00:05.000 Because I saw one lady who diarrhea herself.

01:00:07.000 It went all down her leg and everything, and she completed that fucking race.

01:00:09.000 Well, the thing is, it's hard to tell what's real and what's AI.

01:00:12.000 That's real.

01:00:13.000 That's real.

01:00:14.000 That's a little pussy blood right there.

01:00:15.000 I can tell.

01:00:16.000 I'm an expert.

01:00:18.000 But the thing is, free bleeding is one thing, but it's like, but just getting your pussy blood on other people's stuff.

01:00:23.000 They don't care.

01:00:24.000 Like, if you're doing that shit at home or in the grass, they're marking their territory.

01:00:31.000 Well, what did people do before they invented tampons?

01:00:34.000 Like, I mean, are you supposed to just wash it out?

01:00:37.000 Like, what are you supposed to do?

01:00:38.000 What does nature want you to do?

01:00:40.000 Like, nature doesn't want you.

01:00:41.000 That's why toxic shock syndrome is a thing.

01:00:44.000 When women have tampons and they leave them up there and then they can get really sick and women have died from toxic shock syndrome from tampons.

01:00:51.000 I don't think people even cared about.

01:00:53.000 I don't know if this might be full satire, but this is someone talking about how it's not made up and it's a real thing.

01:01:00.000 4chan people tried to claim they started this.

01:01:03.000 Misogynic users of the online forum 4chan would claim that they jokingly started the movement in 2014 and see how far they can make angry feminists go.

01:01:12.000 Fake memes and Twitter accounts apparently belong to feminist activists began posting content about free bleeding.

01:01:19.000 This backfired spectacularly for the 4chan trolls when they unwittingly created a discourse around the normalization of periods.

01:01:26.000 What?

01:01:27.000 The free bleeding movement, whether fake or not, quickly became very real and got women talking about their monthly cycle.

01:01:34.000 Since then, notable moments in the free bleeding movement have included Koran Gandhi running the Boston Marathon without something while bleed.

01:01:45.000 They missed something there.

01:01:46.000 It says without while bleeding through her sports shorts.

01:01:49.000 Poet Rupi Carr also became notable in the movement when an image of her menstrual blood on her pants and bed sheets was repeatedly removed from Instagram that same year.

01:02:01.000 Imagine like you're a hero because your pussy blood is on the internet.

01:02:06.000 This is so kooky.

01:02:07.000 This sounds like this is satire.

01:02:11.000 Who wrote it?

01:02:11.000 What's it in?

01:02:12.000 It's a blog of.

01:02:15.000 I think you have a hard time convincing most.

01:02:18.000 Yeah, most, but these are crazy people.

01:02:20.000 Like most people don't want to fuck wearing a squirrel outfit, but crazy people do.

01:02:25.000 Some people do.

01:02:26.000 I'm not saying furries are crazy.

01:02:28.000 What is the blog?

01:02:29.000 And do they have other things that seem like satire?

01:02:31.000 Because that seems like satire.

01:02:32.000 I'm checking real copy.

01:02:33.000 It's hard to tell at the edges.

01:02:35.000 When you get to the edges of radical feminism and radical leftism and radical right-wing, you know, Patriot Front type shit, it's hard to tell what satire when you get to the edges.

01:02:44.000 When you get to the most extreme examples of any movement.

01:02:47.000 Well, also, everything's AI now.

01:02:50.000 People just lie.

01:02:51.000 People just say bullshit.

01:02:52.000 Also, all those, whether it's the right-wing movements like Proud Boys or whether it's Antifa, they get infiltrated.

01:03:01.000 Those guys get infiltrated by government officials 100 fucking percent.

01:03:05.000 I guarantee you there's some FBI agents in Antifa, and I guarantee you there's some FBI agents that are in the Proud Boys.

01:03:13.000 I think the head of the Proud Boys was already outed as an FBI informant.

01:03:17.000 Isn't that true?

01:03:19.000 I think that find that out.

01:03:21.000 Google that.

01:03:22.000 Really?

01:03:23.000 Yes.

01:03:23.000 That's not shocking at all.

01:03:25.000 I think every single movement gets to.

01:03:27.000 I think he still went to jail, too.

01:03:29.000 I think he still went to jail for January 6th.

01:03:32.000 Yeah, I mean, they still locked up.

01:03:36.000 Let's say, what does it say?

01:03:38.000 Head of the Proud Boys revealed to have been an FBI informant, Enrico Tario.

01:03:42.000 Tario served as the national chairman of the Proud Boys from 2018 to 2021 and was a central figure in the group's activities, including its role in a January 6th, 2021 Capitol riot.

01:03:52.000 However, it was later disclosed that Tario worked as an informant for federal and local law enforcement agencies between 2012 and 2014 prior to his leadership in the Proud Boys.

01:04:03.000 Oh, beforehand.

01:04:04.000 That's even crazier.

01:04:06.000 That's even crazier.

01:04:07.000 Like, were they telling us the truth?

01:04:09.000 Like, that he's not doing it anymore?

01:04:11.000 It's like, fucking, who knows, man?

01:04:14.000 It's layers upon layers.

01:04:16.000 It's those Russian nesting dolls, and you open it, and there's another one in there, and you open, there's another one.

01:04:22.000 Bro, the Epstein files.

01:04:25.000 I heard there's no files.

01:04:26.000 I heard it's a hoax.

01:04:29.000 And then all of a sudden, he's going to release the files.

01:04:31.000 Well, I thought there was no files.

01:04:32.000 Man.

01:04:32.000 He wants an investigation now.

01:04:34.000 Like, what is going on?

01:04:34.000 Listen.

01:04:35.000 They voted 427 to 1.

01:04:38.000 Who's the one?

01:04:40.000 Who's the one?

01:04:41.000 I didn't see why he said, but he did.

01:04:43.000 National Security.

01:04:45.000 No fucking way you will be the one.

01:04:48.000 If you found out all of Congress voted for something, you the only one that didn't, can you change your vote?

01:04:54.000 You can't be the one, guy.

01:04:55.000 It should be.

01:04:56.000 It should be that it has to be like, no one can know what the vote is before you do it.

01:05:01.000 Bro, I would love to hear his reason.

01:05:02.000 How you the one?

01:05:03.000 Well, you know, I was feeling like, let's move past it and get on with our business.

01:05:09.000 You can't move past it.

01:05:10.000 These billionaires are good people.

01:05:11.000 Okay.

01:05:12.000 You can't move past it.

01:05:13.000 They're good, solid people.

01:05:15.000 Clay Higgins.

01:05:15.000 Who?

01:05:16.000 Where's he at of?

01:05:18.000 Arkansas.

01:05:19.000 Indiana.

01:05:20.000 Yeah, there he goes.

01:05:21.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:05:23.000 Somebody got to him.

01:05:24.000 One of the bottom 10 in education or something like that.

01:05:26.000 Somebody got to him.

01:05:27.000 That's crazy, though.

01:05:29.000 Before it in 20 to 1.

01:05:30.000 I have been a principled note on this bill from the beginning.

01:05:33.000 What was wrong with the bill three months ago?

01:05:36.000 It abandons 250 years of criminal justice procedure in America.

01:05:39.000 As written, this bill reveals and injures thousands of innocent people, witnesses, people who provided alibis, family members, etc.

01:05:47.000 If enacted in its current form, this type of broad reveal of criminal investigative files released to a rabid media will absolutely result in innocent people being hurt.

01:05:56.000 Not by my vote.

01:05:57.000 The Oversight Committee is conducting a thorough investigation that has already released well over 60,000 pages of documents from the Epstein case.

01:06:05.000 That effort will continue in a manner that provides all due protections for innocent Americans.

01:06:11.000 If the Senate amends the bill to properly address privacy of victims and or other Americans who are named but not criminally implicated, then I will vote for that bill when it comes back to the House.

01:06:20.000 He's in that motherfucker.

01:06:22.000 Well, that's a point, though, right?

01:06:24.000 Like, there was people that had, like, people that had dinner over Epstein's house.

01:06:28.000 Like, Epstein had dinners and had celebrities go over his house.

01:06:31.000 Like, Chelsea Handler was one of the people that went over his house.

01:06:34.000 I don't think Chelsea Handler is out there molesting kids.

01:06:36.000 No, no, I get that.

01:06:36.000 You know what I mean?

01:06:37.000 No, I get that, but I think we're past that.

01:06:41.000 We're beyond that point now.

01:06:43.000 Right, you just have to be able to say, hey, I went to his house for dinner.

01:06:45.000 Yeah.

01:06:46.000 I'm not saying, because people try to do that to you with like pictures.

01:06:48.000 They're like, if he was in a picture with somebody, they couldn't.

01:06:51.000 Right.

01:06:51.000 You know, but it's like, it's a difference between being in the picture with somebody and being in 500 pictures with them.

01:06:56.000 Right.

01:06:56.000 You know what I mean?

01:06:57.000 And then flying to an island.

01:06:58.000 Yeah.

01:06:58.000 I think the because this is a big problem.

01:07:01.000 I mean, related back to what we were talking about earlier with Hollywood, too, is that I think a lot of, I think a lot of these motherfuckers don't respect the public.

01:07:07.000 They don't respect our intelligence.

01:07:09.000 I think the average American is smart enough to know the difference between somebody that was just in there or somebody that testified than somebody that was banging children.

01:07:20.000 See, the thing is, the average American probably can tell the difference, but there are sub-average individuals that all they want to know is you're on the list, and they hear you're on the list, and they might try to kill you.

01:07:32.000 And that is a fact.

01:07:34.000 But here's the thing: the problem is.

01:07:36.000 And I'm not advocating for not releasing the files.

01:07:38.000 I'm just saying there's enough dumb, nutty people that will think that you're guilty.

01:07:43.000 There's been so much obfuscation with this.

01:07:46.000 It would be different if there was no pushback.

01:07:49.000 But there's, I think what's at stake is people's belief in the integrity of the process.

01:07:55.000 That's already cooked.

01:07:57.000 That's already cooked.

01:07:57.000 Oh, well, yeah.

01:07:58.000 Whatever, the last little shreds of it that are left.

01:08:00.000 It's like, no more you getting to sift through and decide.

01:08:03.000 Because he's, you know, it's easy to say that.

01:08:06.000 But the truth is, they want to be able to decide whose names get seen and whose names don't.

01:08:10.000 And people aren't with that.

01:08:12.000 Like, you know.

01:08:13.000 And they shouldn't be with that.

01:08:14.000 Or, or we agree with this guy, and then we let them Kennedy joints out.

01:08:19.000 We've been waiting for them.

01:08:20.000 Think about it.

01:08:21.000 They said the same thing about the Kennedy shit.

01:08:22.000 Well, we don't want to hurt.

01:08:24.000 And every time they're supposed to release it, they kick it down the road.

01:08:27.000 They released some new Kennedy documents, but I never heard anything come out of it.

01:08:31.000 Yeah, it was supposed to have been released two or three presidents.

01:08:34.000 There's no way those people are alive.

01:08:36.000 Right.

01:08:38.000 What we know is this.

01:08:39.000 We know that I forget who said it, but justice delayed is justice denied.

01:08:44.000 The longer we wait, the more we let these fucking snakes kick the can down the road, the more they get to obfuscate and muddy the waters.

01:08:52.000 Trump said about the JFK files.

01:08:54.000 He said, I saw them, and if you saw what I saw, you wouldn't release them either.

01:08:54.000 What?

01:09:00.000 That's what I'm screaming.

01:09:02.000 That's crazy.

01:09:04.000 What does that mean?

01:09:05.000 What does that mean?

01:09:05.000 I don't even, I can't even imagine what that means.

01:09:07.000 What does that mean?

01:09:08.000 What could that mean?

01:09:10.000 What does that mean?

01:09:11.000 Does that mean a foreign government?

01:09:11.000 I don't know.

01:09:13.000 Does that mean our government?

01:09:14.000 Does that mean the mafia?

01:09:16.000 Does that mean a coordinated effort with all the above?

01:09:20.000 What does that mean?

01:09:21.000 I have no idea what it could possibly mean.

01:09:24.000 It's crazy for something that happened in 1963.

01:09:27.000 Yeah.

01:09:28.000 And almost everyone involved, almost everyone that could be embarrassed somehow is dead.

01:09:33.000 62 years ago, man.

01:09:34.000 So it would have to be something that destroys an institution or something.

01:09:39.000 Something.

01:09:40.000 Like this Epstein shit.

01:09:41.000 Right.

01:09:43.000 But just the amount, the sheer amount of people with insane amounts of money that are attached to this.

01:09:49.000 Because my conservative friends be like, they think I give a fuck about a Democrat.

01:09:53.000 They'll be like, oh, you, with a Bill Clinton's in there.

01:09:56.000 Like, I don't give a fuck who in there.

01:09:58.000 I don't care who in there.

01:10:00.000 Put that shit in the street.

01:10:00.000 You don't care.

01:10:01.000 Yeah.

01:10:02.000 Yeah, I don't have a— Party identity.

01:10:02.000 They think you do?

01:10:06.000 I don't have a favorite politician.

01:10:07.000 I don't have—there's no— There's nobody.

01:10:09.000 I don't give these motherfuckers money.

01:10:11.000 No, there's no politician that I love enough to do it because this is what's killing me.

01:10:16.000 There's people out there that are literally like, well, how old is 16, really?

01:10:21.000 You know, like they're trying to justify, like, because they want to come out of this by still showing support, but they don't want to be connected to the crime.

01:10:32.000 So they're still trying to justify their support of all of this.

01:10:35.000 It's like, there's no politician I love more than I love my country or more than I have my principles of like, yeah, I think if you can't draw the line at kid fucking, then you probably should stop talking in public.

01:10:35.000 That's crazy.

01:10:45.000 Like you shouldn't have public discourse, you know?

01:10:48.000 Yeah.

01:10:49.000 Man, I think this is a pattern that has existed forever in politics.

01:10:55.000 They want you to be compromised when you get into any sort of a position so they can control you.

01:11:01.000 And I think these things like Epstein and there's probably a bunch of other similar operations that are being run.

01:11:07.000 They provide you with like a really good time or maybe you're a high-profile, extremely wealthy individual and it's hard for you to get hoes.

01:11:17.000 And some guy tells you, hey, we've got everything covered.

01:11:20.000 You know, you come to my island.

01:11:22.000 Nothing, you know, what happened on the island, stays on the island.

01:11:26.000 Didn't they kick somebody out of the royal family?

01:11:26.000 Bro, they just kicked.

01:11:28.000 Oh, yeah.

01:11:29.000 Prince Andrew.

01:11:29.000 Who?

01:11:30.000 Yeah.

01:11:31.000 They kicked him out of the family.

01:11:33.000 And there hasn't even been a former trial yet.

01:11:36.000 It's not like he's done.

01:11:38.000 But what does that, what, what happens when you not, they just walk you out the castle and you just on the street?

01:11:43.000 I think he's in a house like way out in the country.

01:11:47.000 Like you stay here.

01:11:50.000 In my head, I just picture him like crying over some KFC because he's never eaten peasant food.

01:11:56.000 I don't think he's eating peasant food.

01:11:57.000 So he's just not.

01:11:58.000 So he's not a regular person.

01:11:59.000 I think he's in a manor, like a beautiful home in the country.

01:12:02.000 Okay, so he has to stay.

01:12:04.000 So being kicked out of the royal family doesn't mean that you just, that you lose everything.

01:12:08.000 Who knows?

01:12:09.000 I mean, what does he have?

01:12:10.000 And where did he get it?

01:12:11.000 Is it just money from the government?

01:12:13.000 Because they do get paid by the government.

01:12:15.000 They do, but I also think they're still dukes of something and lords of something.

01:12:19.000 Here it says what he lost.

01:12:20.000 So after being stripped of his royal titles and forced to leave his longtime residence at Royal Lodge, Royal Lodge, Prince Andrew, now formerly known as Andrew Montbaten Windsor, will relocate to accommodation in the Sandringam Sandrigam.

01:12:38.000 Yeah, I think that.

01:12:38.000 How do you say that?

01:12:39.000 Sandrigam Estate in Norfolk.

01:12:42.000 He is now excluded from royal duties and public life, and his status has been dramatically reduced.

01:12:49.000 His status has been reduced.

01:12:51.000 Loss of titles and status, eviction from Royal Lodge, relocation to Sandrigam Estate.

01:12:58.000 So he's relocated to an estate in the countryside.

01:13:02.000 Public exclusion.

01:13:04.000 He remains excluded from all royal engagements and official events, except for private family gatherings.

01:13:11.000 But that sounds sweet.

01:13:12.000 Yeah, I mean, he's getting away with not having to be, you know, like not being in the public eye.

01:13:19.000 That's it.

01:13:20.000 Well, they were basically like, you know, all the parts about being a royal that suck?

01:13:22.000 Yeah, you don't have to do those anymore.

01:13:24.000 Look at this.

01:13:24.000 Financial support.

01:13:26.000 The king will provide for Andrew's basic needs, but his former royal funding and security benefits have been ended.

01:13:34.000 Andrew has sought private business opportunities to support himself, but no public roles are expected.

01:13:40.000 Wow.

01:13:41.000 Who's going to go into business with you, my guy?

01:13:43.000 He wants to go into business.

01:13:44.000 He's going to open up a Starbucks.

01:13:45.000 He's getting money from the king all this time.

01:13:48.000 This whole thing is nuts because they get money, and I don't think they have to do anything.

01:13:53.000 Like, I don't think they have real function in government, do they?

01:13:56.000 Bruh.

01:13:57.000 Where's the Sandrigam Estates?

01:13:59.000 Oh, that's where he got.

01:14:00.000 Poor guy.

01:14:01.000 That's so sad.

01:14:03.000 That's so sad.

01:14:04.000 They made him stay in that castle.

01:14:06.000 Look how beautiful that place is.

01:14:08.000 That is so nuts that this guy got kicked out of there.

01:14:12.000 Bro.

01:14:13.000 He got kicked out of wherever the fuck he was, the royal lord.

01:14:17.000 Unless they tell me his punishment is like, they give you that estate, but they take all the servants.

01:14:21.000 Bro, look at the gardener's house.

01:14:22.000 Show me the garden.

01:14:23.000 That's the gardener's house.

01:14:24.000 That's where the gardener lives.

01:14:26.000 That fucking place is beautiful.

01:14:28.000 That is hilarious, dude.

01:14:30.000 Like, if they give him that place, but they don't give him no servants, and he just got to clean everything.

01:14:34.000 He got to walk a mile to the kitchen.

01:14:36.000 Yeah, he's got to do his own dishes.

01:14:37.000 No, but this guy's living the life.

01:14:40.000 So he just gets banished to a mansion.

01:14:42.000 He don't got to do no public duties.

01:14:45.000 And they probably just bring Hoes out to the mansion.

01:14:47.000 Do you think he gets a puppy?

01:14:49.000 It's not like he stopped banging hoes.

01:14:51.000 Right?

01:14:51.000 No.

01:14:52.000 I mean, I don't know what he's in trouble for.

01:14:54.000 Right.

01:14:54.000 That's the thing.

01:14:55.000 They haven't told us.

01:14:56.000 But to get kicked out of the royal family is they didn't even kick Megan Markle out the family and she racist.

01:15:02.000 Legal and public impact.

01:15:04.000 What is this?

01:15:05.000 These changes result from long-standing controversies over Andrew's association with Jeffrey Epstein and subsequent legal settlements.

01:15:12.000 Oh, he's got settlements.

01:15:13.000 Particularly, a civil case bought by Virginia Guffrey, which concluded without any admission of liability by Andrew, but resulted in a multi-million pound settlement.

01:15:22.000 Do you know that there's the amount of money that's been paid out to victims of Jeffrey Epstein is like $300 million so far?

01:15:31.000 From where?

01:15:32.000 I don't know.

01:15:33.000 Is that true?

01:15:34.000 Yeah, but there's also, there's also a bunch of money that just moved after he died that no one really understands.

01:15:41.000 This is all so sketchy.

01:15:43.000 Bro, I'm telling you, a lot of people.

01:15:45.000 If they really release this shit in earnest, it's going to change everything.

01:15:50.000 I hope it's that powerful.

01:15:50.000 I hope.

01:15:52.000 You think it will be?

01:15:54.000 Well, all I know is the most powerful person on earth has been doing a lot to keep that shit from coming out.

01:16:00.000 And I don't, and I'm not like everybody else.

01:16:03.000 I don't think Trump is in there in a criminal way.

01:16:07.000 But I think a lot of he has a lot of powerful friends that have been putting pressure on him to keep that shit under wraps.

01:16:12.000 I think that definitely has to be.

01:16:13.000 I think it's going to be royal people.

01:16:15.000 It's going to be prime ministers.

01:16:15.000 It's going to be Supreme Court justices.

01:16:17.000 It's going to be all types of people.

01:16:18.000 Former presidents.

01:16:19.000 Yeah, some CEOs.

01:16:21.000 It's going to be all type of shit in there.

01:16:22.000 Scientists.

01:16:23.000 Get it out.

01:16:24.000 Yeah.

01:16:24.000 Get it out.

01:16:25.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:16:26.000 The world already.

01:16:27.000 There's nothing to lose for America as a whole.

01:16:30.000 What a crazy operation they were running.

01:16:32.000 What a crazy thing to have a bunch of people fly them out to an island that somehow or another you own.

01:16:39.000 Like, where'd you get the money to buy a fucking island, bro?

01:16:42.000 It's not as expensive as you think.

01:16:43.000 A whole island?

01:16:44.000 Yeah.

01:16:44.000 We looked at that island.

01:16:46.000 We were trying to buy it.

01:16:48.000 Actually, I shouldn't say we're trying to buy it.

01:16:49.000 We were thinking about it very briefly, but it was too expensive.

01:16:52.000 It was like $55.

01:16:53.000 It's not discounted now?

01:16:54.000 That's a discount.

01:16:56.000 That's the discounted price?

01:16:57.000 Oh, okay.

01:16:59.000 Okay.

01:16:59.000 I would imagine it's well worth well more than that.

01:17:02.000 Like, if you buy a beautiful house in like Miami, a beautiful house in Miami might be $200 million if it's on the ocean.

01:17:10.000 Those like crazy manors in like West Palm Beach.

01:17:13.000 But it's like, but the island's basically haunted.

01:17:15.000 You got to save the whole motherfucking thing.

01:17:17.000 It's too late.

01:17:17.000 You got to level it.

01:17:19.000 You got to remove the dirt and go get dirt from the island.

01:17:23.000 Yeah, you got to remove everything.

01:17:25.000 It would be that's the same reason why we never bought the One World Theater.

01:17:29.000 The same thing.

01:17:30.000 Oh, that weird cult.

01:17:31.000 Yeah, the cult thing.

01:17:32.000 I was like, oh, man, there's not enough sage in the world.

01:17:36.000 You had to come up with some holy water, anointing, oil.

01:17:36.000 Yeah.

01:17:39.000 That's a beautiful property.

01:17:40.000 But I was like, what do they do to those poor people there?

01:17:43.000 You know, and that island.

01:17:46.000 I wouldn't be shocked if that dude was on there.

01:17:47.000 What was his name?

01:17:49.000 The cult leader of that cult.

01:17:51.000 Well, he had different names.

01:17:53.000 His first, I forget what his real name was.

01:17:57.000 He had the same name as a boxer.

01:18:00.000 I forget his fucking name.

01:18:01.000 What is the cult member's, the cult leader's name in Holy Hell?

01:18:06.000 But he changed his name twice.

01:18:08.000 So he had a fake name when he was teaching yoga in West Hollywood when he started the cult.

01:18:13.000 And then when the Cult Awareness Network started going after him, because after Waco, they started going after all the cults.

01:18:19.000 They're like, these motherfuckers are arming up.

01:18:21.000 Like, this is dangerous.

01:18:22.000 Let's find out.

01:18:23.000 And also, it's like a lot of people lost their family members.

01:18:26.000 Jaime Gomez.

01:18:27.000 That's right.

01:18:29.000 So he was Michael, Michelle, and then he became Andreas once he came to Texas.

01:18:38.000 So what happened was they were after him.

01:18:42.000 And so this dude picks up shop and just moves to Austin.

01:18:45.000 And just to throw people off, he has his followers build a theater so he could dance in front of them.

01:18:50.000 They built that.

01:18:51.000 His followers built that theater.

01:18:54.000 And see, I have improved for people to get sucked in stuff like that.

01:18:58.000 But I feel like we know enough now where it's like, if you're unsure if you're in a cult, like as soon as the guy wants to fuck your wife, you should be or your dad.

01:19:08.000 Or just anyone.

01:19:08.000 Right.

01:19:10.000 Like I said.

01:19:11.000 This guy was fucking everybody.

01:19:13.000 As soon as the leader needs to fuck your family, yeah, that's a problem.

01:19:16.000 That's the red flag right there.

01:19:17.000 If there was no alarm bells before that point, like when they asked you to give up all your stuff, maybe you still had hope.

01:19:23.000 You know, when they started giving you duties as a servant, maybe you still have help.

01:19:27.000 But when they need to fuck your family member, I feel like that should set off all the alarms for you.

01:19:34.000 For me, they wait until you're deep in the cult before they bust that one out.

01:19:38.000 Like David Koresh, didn't he wait like a long time?

01:19:41.000 I think they were already on the compound.

01:19:43.000 He was like, God just told me I have to fuck your wife.

01:19:46.000 Like, for real, it was one of that.

01:19:48.000 It was that dumb.

01:19:49.000 It was like that dumb.

01:19:50.000 Like, God spoke to him and told him that no one was allowed to have sex but him.

01:19:56.000 He was no sex with everybody's wife.

01:19:57.000 Group pressure is very powerful.

01:19:59.000 Finally, if that's true.

01:20:00.000 Like, none of us are really above it.

01:20:02.000 You know, you gotta be careful who groups you around it.

01:20:04.000 Because that pressure to conform, you know, because I best he's not just like, I gotta fuck your wife, but he's surrounded by people going, do it, do it.

01:20:15.000 You know, all cheered on towels.

01:20:16.000 They have that little saying they say, you know, that pressure to praise Jesus.

01:20:21.000 Yep.

01:20:22.000 That pressure to please everyone.

01:20:25.000 Yeah, because there's a certain type of person that gets sucked, roped into those things.

01:20:30.000 Well, I always wonder about that.

01:20:32.000 Like, is there a grand pattern to the universe?

01:20:35.000 Is there a mathematical formulation that we exist in where you have to have a certain amount of gullible people and then a certain amount of devious people that try to trick people and con artists, and then a certain amount of people like you that are like, what the fuck is going on?

01:20:50.000 Like that, all of this sort of like dances together and balances itself out.

01:20:54.000 And just like nature has predators and it has wounded antelope that get too close to the water hole.

01:21:00.000 All these things like kind of have to exist at the same time in order for progress to be made.

01:21:05.000 It seems like it's just a certain amount of people that are just born gullible and not just gullible, but kind of like wanting to be tricked.

01:21:16.000 He reportedly annulled marriages of couples and who joined the sect and took multiple women as his spiritual wives, some of whom were very young girls.

01:21:25.000 Former cult members have alleged that Koresh slept with wives of other members and maintained a harem, sometimes with women who were already married and fathered numerous children with various women.

01:21:34.000 Koresh also instructed male followers to practice celibacy and surrender their wives to him.

01:21:41.000 This behavior was part of his doctrine and control over the group's women and children, often accompanied by allegations of sexual abuse and manipulation.

01:21:50.000 Yeah.

01:21:51.000 See, the thing is, those guys, they're not influential guys.

01:21:56.000 Their superpower is their ability to know who.

01:22:00.000 They can sense who's broken in just the right way and come in and be daddy.

01:22:05.000 You know, can you imagine a motherfucker telling you to be celibate while he's banging your wife?

01:22:05.000 Yeah.

01:22:11.000 Crazy.

01:22:12.000 Crazy.

01:22:13.000 And you're living in a compound with him and he's heavily armed.

01:22:17.000 And you gave him all your worldly possessions.

01:22:18.000 And he sings and he's terrible.

01:22:20.000 We have to listen to him sing.

01:22:21.000 You ever listen to him sing?

01:22:22.000 Or he dancing on the stage that you built?

01:22:24.000 Listen, play some David Koresh movies.

01:22:28.000 He would sing songs.

01:22:30.000 They were terrible.

01:22:30.000 He has music.

01:22:31.000 Yeah, he was terrible.

01:22:33.000 Yeah, he was a musician.

01:22:34.000 He was a frustrated musician who became an evangelical.

01:22:42.000 Give me one.

01:22:42.000 I don't know.

01:22:43.000 Anyone?

01:22:44.000 They're all, I'm sure they all suck.

01:22:48.000 Let's listen to David Koresh, recorded in Waco, Texas, 1989.

01:22:53.000 If I was in that cult, I'd be like, I think I want to let him fuck my wife now.

01:22:57.000 But how about that name?

01:22:58.000 The name, is that like the name of a woman he was trying to fuck?

01:23:01.000 Shoshanium.

01:23:02.000 Shoshanium?

01:23:03.000 I mean, that's a weird name.

01:23:04.000 What does it say?

01:23:05.000 Very unusual name.

01:23:07.000 I've never heard that name in my whole life.

01:23:08.000 It probably was some girl he was trying to.

01:23:10.000 Probably has to be.

01:23:11.000 That's by biblical.

01:23:12.000 Oh psalms.

01:23:15.000 Hebrew lilies mentioned in Psalms 45 and 49.

01:23:21.000 It is meaning, its meaning in these psalms is uncertain.

01:23:25.000 Some believe it's kind of lily.

01:23:27.000 Click on that, what it says?

01:23:28.000 A kind of lily?

01:23:29.000 What is that saying?

01:23:30.000 Lily-shaped straight trumpet.

01:23:32.000 What?

01:23:33.000 A six-string trumpet.

01:23:35.000 A word commencing a song or the melody of which these psalms were to be sung.

01:23:41.000 See, it was probably some girl's name.

01:23:41.000 Like, they don't even know.

01:23:43.000 Yeah, probably a chick.

01:23:44.000 Yeah.

01:23:45.000 I saw Lil, and I was like, was that Lilith?

01:23:49.000 Do you know who Lilith is?

01:23:50.000 You ever heard of Lilith?

01:23:51.000 You mean like the demon?

01:23:53.000 Well, Lilith was like apparently before Eve.

01:23:57.000 There's like, this is like, you know, again, I don't know who to believe or who not to believe.

01:24:02.000 And what I don't even know what scriptures show Lilith and what don't.

01:24:08.000 Everything I know about Lilith is from Diablo lore.

01:24:11.000 Oh, that's funny.

01:24:12.000 No, Lilith is like a character in ancient religious texts.

01:24:17.000 she's a daughter of who is well we're gonna find out because i'll butcher it i'm I'm very hesitant to say what I think it is because I don't really remember.

01:24:17.000 Right.

01:24:26.000 She's the daughter of Beelzebub.

01:24:28.000 Did Wes Huff tell us about this?

01:24:30.000 You know who told us about this?

01:24:30.000 No.

01:24:31.000 Kurt Metzger.

01:24:33.000 Kurt Metzger was ranting and raving about Lilith.

01:24:35.000 Do you know?

01:24:36.000 You don't know about Lilith?

01:24:37.000 There's a few different ones, but this is the one that he was talking about.

01:24:40.000 Lilith is not a character in the Bible.

01:24:42.000 Her name is only mentioned in one verse in the book of Isaiah.

01:24:45.000 This one here.

01:24:46.000 Okay.

01:24:47.000 Origin of the legend.

01:24:48.000 The story of Lilith as Adam's first wife comes from later Jewish folklore, such as the alphabet of Bensira, which was not included in the canonical Bible.

01:24:57.000 The legend's core story is, according to its folklore, Lilith was created from the earth at the same time as Adam, making her his equal.

01:25:04.000 When she refused to be subservient to him, she left the Garden of Eden.

01:25:08.000 That sounds like the true story.

01:25:11.000 Some interpretations claim that Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 describe two different creation stories and two different women.

01:25:17.000 This is considered incorrect and ludicrous by many biblical scholars and theologians.

01:25:22.000 Evolution of the figure.

01:25:24.000 Over time, Lilith's story evolved from a simple night demon from Mesopotamian cultures to more complex figure in Jewish tradition.

01:25:31.000 In modern times, some have reclaimed her as a feminist symbol of independence and equality.

01:25:37.000 That's funny.

01:25:38.000 A Lilith Fair.

01:25:39.000 That's where that Lilith is.

01:25:40.000 See there.

01:25:41.000 That picture of Lilith?

01:25:42.000 That's from Diablo, the video game.

01:25:44.000 I would play as that character.

01:25:45.000 Can you play as her in Florida?

01:25:46.000 She's the bad guy, but she fucks you up.

01:25:46.000 No, no, no.

01:25:49.000 That would be a dope character for Quake if you could be Lilith and run around a map fucking people up.

01:25:54.000 I think you can beat her in a Fortnite or something.

01:25:56.000 Nice.

01:25:57.000 I think they buy everybody.

01:25:58.000 But that's what she looked like?

01:25:59.000 In the game?

01:26:00.000 Oh, yeah.

01:26:00.000 In the game?

01:26:01.000 And she's hard to beat.

01:26:03.000 Yeah, I've only beat her once, but I haven't played a long time.

01:26:03.000 Yeah.

01:26:06.000 But yeah, everything I know about her is from that game, and it sounds like it's all wrong.

01:26:10.000 But isn't it funny that Shoshananim or whatever the fuck it is?

01:26:13.000 They don't even know what that was.

01:26:14.000 Like, it might have been a trumpet.

01:26:16.000 It might have been a flute.

01:26:17.000 It might have been a person.

01:26:19.000 Could have been the song.

01:26:20.000 It could have been the way you sing.

01:26:21.000 I bet you like a Hebrew scholar could probably tell you.

01:26:24.000 Maybe.

01:26:25.000 It seems like it's up for debate.

01:26:26.000 That's the problem with a lot of really old shit.

01:26:30.000 It's like they're just guessing.

01:26:31.000 They're really old shit.

01:26:33.000 Like, what are they trying to say in the book of Ezekiel?

01:26:33.000 They're just guessing.

01:26:36.000 What are they trying to say?

01:26:37.000 Is it crazy?

01:26:38.000 Oh, my God.

01:26:39.000 I haven't read a Bible in like 20 years.

01:26:41.000 The Ezekiel stuff's bananas, man.

01:26:42.000 There you go.

01:26:43.000 I asked Perplexity a little more about Shoshanahim was a group or entity related to the Branch Davidian's cult led by David Koresh.

01:26:52.000 A group or entity related to it.

01:26:54.000 The name seems to refer to Koresh's followers who identified themselves as students of the seven seals.

01:27:01.000 Oh, so they were his people.

01:27:04.000 So he called his people that group.

01:27:05.000 Alliteration against you every time.

01:27:07.000 Reflection, reflecting their focus on apocalyptic teachings derived from the Bible's book of Revelation, Koresh positioned himself as a messianic figure, calling himself the Lamb who would open the seven seals, an event that would lead to salvation and the apocalypse.

01:27:24.000 Followers under Koresh's leadership and ideology were sometimes referred to as Koreshians.

01:27:29.000 You know what would be crazy?

01:27:31.000 What really would be crazy is if heaven was real and the murder, like them being murdered, sent them to heaven.

01:27:40.000 Because those people were murdered.

01:27:43.000 Did you ever see what the actual footage of when they stormed Waco?

01:27:48.000 Oh, bro, it's crazy.

01:27:48.000 No.

01:27:50.000 They lit them on fire.

01:27:50.000 They killed those people.

01:27:52.000 They drove tanks into the buildings and flames are shooting out of the tanks.

01:27:56.000 They just cooked those people.

01:27:58.000 Not just Koresh, not just people.

01:28:00.000 Everybody, men, women, children.

01:28:03.000 What were they trying to do in the first place?

01:28:05.000 just have them disarmed well there was a problem with it's there's a lot to the story And it seems like in the beginning, there might have been some governmental overreach.

01:28:16.000 Like they were trying to get a win and they were trying to like, who described this to us?

01:28:22.000 Was it Oliver Stone?

01:28:24.000 Who was telling us?

01:28:26.000 It might have been Daryl Cooper.

01:28:27.000 Daryl Cooper has an amazing series all on the Waco.

01:28:33.000 No, he doesn't.

01:28:34.000 It's the Epstein files.

01:28:37.000 He has one on Guyana.

01:28:38.000 That's what he has on.

01:28:39.000 Somebody has one on Koresh.

01:28:41.000 Is it Cooper?

01:28:42.000 So who has a series on Koresh?

01:28:46.000 I'm sorry, I'm blanking here, but the point is they wanted to win.

01:28:51.000 So they wanted to take out this cult, and so they exaggerated what they were doing, and they had a stand down.

01:28:57.000 So they stood outside of the gates with fucking armored vehicles and cops and men with guns, and they waited them out.

01:29:04.000 And eventually it escalated.

01:29:05.000 It escalated to them getting agents on the roof.

01:29:08.000 Agents on the roof got shot at by the people that were in the cult.

01:29:11.000 And so then they started shooting at them and it became a gunfight.

01:29:15.000 And then they brought in tanks and lit it on fire and killed everybody.

01:29:19.000 It's a crazy story, man.

01:29:21.000 It is crazy.

01:29:22.000 It is the whole thing.

01:29:24.000 I know there's a documentary on it as well that details all the different things that led up to the eventual storming of the compound.

01:29:33.000 And did that.

01:29:34.000 Because what year did that happen?

01:29:35.000 Was that like 80?

01:29:37.000 Yeah, it was like, I think it was like in either the early 90s, like 90 or 80.

01:29:42.000 What was it?

01:29:43.000 The siege was in 93.

01:29:44.000 Oh, was it really?

01:29:45.000 See, I don't remember that.

01:29:45.000 93.

01:29:46.000 I remember it.

01:29:48.000 Like, I vaguely remember hearing about it, but in my mind, it's not like something that happened.

01:29:54.000 You know?

01:29:55.000 Because that's the same.

01:29:55.000 That was right around.

01:29:57.000 Wasn't that around the OJ murder, too?

01:30:00.000 Yep.

01:30:01.000 Because that trial was 94.

01:30:03.000 Okay, yeah.

01:30:03.000 So I was like, to me, that's a significant cultural event.

01:30:06.000 And I don't remember the Waco thing being, like, I remember hearing about it afterwards.

01:30:10.000 I don't remember hearing about it while that was happening.

01:30:11.000 Oh, I heard about it.

01:30:12.000 But were people, how did the people react to the government just killing people?

01:30:18.000 Even though...

01:30:18.000 Well, they didn't know.

01:30:19.000 Even though.

01:30:20.000 There was no internet back then.

01:30:22.000 It took a while before people really got hip.

01:30:24.000 There was a few documentaries that were released.

01:30:26.000 There was some news footage that got released.

01:30:28.000 And maybe you can get a hold of a VHS tape, some obscure VHS tape that might have had something to do with Waco.

01:30:34.000 But people really didn't know until they started making documentaries about it, until they saw it on the internet.

01:30:40.000 Once you can see it, because most people are just going to believe the narrative.

01:30:43.000 What's the narrative?

01:30:44.000 People had guns, which they did.

01:30:45.000 The guy was a piece of shit and a cult leader, which he was.

01:30:48.000 But, like, how did it lead to mass murder?

01:30:50.000 How did it lead to them just, well, it led to, they blocked out this guy's house.

01:30:55.000 They, you know.

01:30:57.000 And that's not even the worst one.

01:30:58.000 The worst one is Ruby Ridge.

01:31:00.000 That one's horrible.

01:31:01.000 What happened at Ruby Ridge?

01:31:03.000 Put that into perplexity.

01:31:05.000 Ruby Ridge.

01:31:06.000 This one's a crazy story because the Ruby Ridge story is like totally avoidable and horrific.

01:31:13.000 Like they shot a mother while she was holding her baby.

01:31:17.000 Like crazy.

01:31:19.000 This was like a family of like preppers that were like out in the woods.

01:31:23.000 And maybe the guy was like a little radical, but they completely escalated it.

01:31:28.000 Murdered.

01:31:28.000 Was this in Texas too?

01:31:29.000 No, I don't remember where that was.

01:31:33.000 Where was that?

01:31:34.000 Idaho.

01:31:35.000 Incident was an 11-day standoff in August of 1992 in Boundary County, Idaho, involving Randy Weaver, his family, and a friend, Kevin Harris, against U.S. Marshals and FBI agents.

01:31:35.000 Okay.

01:31:48.000 It began when U.S. Marshals sought to arrest Randy Weaver for failing to appear in court on federal firearms charges related to the sale of a modified shotgun.

01:31:56.000 The situation escalated after Weaver's dog was shot by a marshal during surveillance, leading to a firefight in which Weaver's 14-year-old son, Samuel, was killed by gunfire.

01:32:06.000 Kevin Harris, a family friend, shot and killed Deputy Marshal William Deegan during the exchange.

01:32:12.000 FBI hostage rescue team was called in, and during a sniper shot, Randy Weaver was wounded.

01:32:17.000 The sniper second shot, intended for Harris, also hit and killed Weaver's wife, Vicki, who was holding their infant daughter behind a cabin door.

01:32:27.000 The siege ended when negotiators, including activist Bo Gritz, convinced Weaver and Harris to surrender.

01:32:33.000 Harris was arrested on August 30th, and Weaver, with his daughter, surrendered the next day.

01:32:38.000 Criticism later arose over the FBI's rules of engagement and use of deadly force, particularly the constitutional legality of the sniper second shot that killed Vicki Weaver.

01:32:48.000 The standoff highlighted tensions between federal law enforcement and citizens, especially among anti-government and white separatist groups.

01:32:56.000 Weaver and Harris were charged with several offenses, but were acquitted of the most severe charges except Weaver's conviction for failure to appear in court.

01:33:06.000 Interesting.

01:33:07.000 They were both acquitted.

01:33:09.000 Damn.

01:33:10.000 They got in a firefight with the feds and they were acquitted.

01:33:13.000 Well, Kevin Harris popped it off.

01:33:14.000 Look at that statement.

01:33:16.000 Weaver and Harris were charged with several offenses, but were acquitted of the most severe charges except Weaver's conviction for failure to appear in court.

01:33:24.000 That's all they got him for.

01:33:25.000 So nothing.

01:33:26.000 Failure to appear in court.

01:33:27.000 They killed his wife.

01:33:29.000 They shot his kid.

01:33:31.000 They killed his kid.

01:33:32.000 They killed his dog.

01:33:33.000 And it was because he failed to appear in court.

01:33:36.000 Because he sold a modified gun.

01:33:38.000 I don't even know what that means.

01:33:40.000 Was it a sawed-off shotgun, which is illegal?

01:33:42.000 But did he change the trigger?

01:33:44.000 What did he do?

01:33:44.000 Something.

01:33:45.000 Did he put a large magazine at the bottom of it?

01:33:47.000 Like, what did he do that was illegal?

01:33:49.000 That's crazy.

01:33:50.000 But also, why are they allowed to kill your dog?

01:33:53.000 Exactly.

01:33:53.000 Because that's what popped it all off, right?

01:33:55.000 Oh, you want to hear one of the worst ones of that?

01:33:57.000 There was a mayor.

01:33:59.000 I forget what he was the mayor of.

01:34:03.000 It might have been Washington, D.C., but he was a mayor.

01:34:06.000 And he had a postman that was doing some sneaky shit.

01:34:11.000 And the postman was getting weed delivered to his house because they figured if I get it, I'm delivering the mail to the mayor's house.

01:34:18.000 And if I get the weed delivered to the mayor's house, no one's going to check the mayor's packages for weed.

01:34:24.000 So I know which one my friend sent to the mayor's house.

01:34:28.000 I'll just take that.

01:34:30.000 And that way, you know, I'll have the weed and no one will be any the wiser.

01:34:35.000 Well, unfortunately, someone was tracking that package and they knew that that weed was going to this particular address.

01:34:41.000 They didn't know it was the mayor's house.

01:34:43.000 So they stormed the mayor's house, shoot his fucking golden retriever, chase it out in the yard while it's cowering and shoot it.

01:34:51.000 You've been around my golden retriever.

01:34:52.000 Like the golden retrievers are not biting anybody, ever, ever.

01:34:56.000 They're the worst guard dogs in the history of the world.

01:34:58.000 Anybody who comes into my house like, hey, you want to give me a treat?

01:35:01.000 Like, he loves everybody.

01:35:03.000 And they shot his dogs.

01:35:04.000 They fucking zip-tied his family, checked the whole house for weed, couldn't find anything.

01:35:09.000 And then eventually it unraveled and they realized what had happened.

01:35:13.000 Like the guy who was delivering his mail was also involved in this weed dealer.

01:35:20.000 And they, you know, they didn't piece it together until after they shot this guy's fucking dogs.

01:35:24.000 But who's they?

01:35:25.000 The cops, the SWAT team.

01:35:28.000 They burst down his door.

01:35:29.000 They did the whole thing, man.

01:35:31.000 They came in, guns, armor, fucking zip-tied everybody.

01:35:35.000 They thought they were breaking into the house of like a drug dealer.

01:35:38.000 That's how bad their information is.

01:35:39.000 It sounded like they needed to.

01:35:40.000 They didn't even find that story.

01:35:41.000 Because it's a very, it's a crazy story.

01:35:43.000 And it was so heartbreaking because the family had to, the kids had to see their dog get shot by these cops for fucking no reason.

01:35:52.000 No reason.

01:35:53.000 They really got to start letting cops smoke weed.

01:35:56.000 I think so.

01:35:57.000 Spear returns.

01:35:58.000 Mushrooms.

01:35:59.000 Weed's not strong enough.

01:36:00.000 But something to get.

01:36:02.000 Well, also, it's like therapy.

01:36:04.000 And, you know, also, it's like, hey, know for sure.

01:36:09.000 Like, really do an investigation.

01:36:11.000 How about find out who lives there?

01:36:13.000 It's the mayor.

01:36:13.000 Oh, my God.

01:36:14.000 Or like, if you shoot a golden retriever, you should probably have to retire.

01:36:17.000 So here it is.

01:36:18.000 Maryland.

01:36:19.000 So police say Maryland Mayor appears to be innocent victims of a scheme by two men to smuggle millions of dollars worth of marijuana by having it delivered to about a half a dozen unsuspecting recipients.

01:36:29.000 So he was one of the many people that this guy delivered mail to.

01:36:33.000 So he got home from work, saw a package addressed to his wife on the front porch, brought it inside, putting it on a table.

01:36:38.000 Suddenly, police with guns drawn kicked in the door, stormed in, shooting to death the couple's two dogs and seizing the unopened package.

01:36:46.000 In it were 32 pounds of marijuana, but the drugs evidently didn't belong to the couple.

01:36:51.000 Police say the couple appeared to be innocent victims of a scheme by two young men to smuggle millions of dollars of marijuana to unsuspecting recipients.

01:36:58.000 Two men under the arrest include a FedEx delivery man.

01:37:01.000 Investigators said the delivery man would drop off a package outside of a home and the other man would come by a short time later and pick it up.

01:37:08.000 Wow.

01:37:09.000 Isn't that crazy?

01:37:11.000 But only, hold on.

01:37:12.000 So only the dogs that died, though?

01:37:15.000 Our dogs were our children.

01:37:16.000 Yeah.

01:37:17.000 Police apparently killed the dogs.

01:37:19.000 He said for sport, gunning down one of them as it was running away.

01:37:23.000 Our dogs were our children, said the 37-year-old Calvo.

01:37:26.000 Two labs.

01:37:27.000 Oh, they were labs.

01:37:27.000 Two labs.

01:37:28.000 Oh, that's, oh, they're black labs.

01:37:29.000 I thought they were golden retrievers.

01:37:31.000 I fucked it up.

01:37:32.000 Our dogs were our children.

01:37:33.000 Again, labs, same thing.

01:37:35.000 Labs aren't biting anybody.

01:37:36.000 They're the sweetest dogs in the world.

01:37:38.000 Said the 37-year-old Calvo, they were our reason we brought this house because it had a big yard for them to run in.

01:37:45.000 Unfucking believable.

01:37:47.000 He was handcuffed in his boxer shorts for about two hours, along with his mother-in-law.

01:37:52.000 Said the officers didn't believe him.

01:37:53.000 We told them he was the mayor.

01:37:55.000 No charges were brought against Calvo or his wife, who came home in the middle of the raid.

01:38:00.000 Fuck, man.

01:38:02.000 But they ain't even apologized for killing the dogs.

01:38:07.000 Killed labs.

01:38:08.000 Bro, you found out wild shit.

01:38:10.000 This is so sad.

01:38:12.000 I just came from Tulsa, Oklahoma.

01:38:15.000 The Tulsa massacre.

01:38:17.000 What's the Tulsa massacre?

01:38:18.000 It was like Black Wall Street.

01:38:19.000 It was like...

01:38:20.000 What was this?

01:38:21.000 This was the 20s, I think, or maybe the 1910s, like in the 1910s.

01:38:26.000 Where like after the Trails of Tears, well, the civilized tribes, basically, they were told that they could have Oklahoma because the land smelled funny, they air smell funny, whatever.

01:38:36.000 And then they found oil.

01:38:38.000 And that set off a whole bunch of shit.

01:38:40.000 Because now you got a bunch of natives and freed slaves that's about to be rich.

01:38:45.000 So you see that movie, the Flower Moon movie?

01:38:48.000 No, I didn't see it.

01:38:49.000 Oh, but it's kind of like that.

01:38:50.000 Like they would, because they couldn't sell their land.

01:38:54.000 Some tribes couldn't sell their land, so you had to marry into the family.

01:38:57.000 And then if you killed everybody, it was yours.

01:38:59.000 Really?

01:39:00.000 Yeah.

01:39:01.000 And so, but Tulsa was Black Wall Street, but it was like the Greenwood area of Tulsa.

01:39:09.000 And it was basically like a prosperous, wealthy black community.

01:39:12.000 And there was a riot one night, and they burned it all down.

01:39:16.000 And so they did this because of oil?

01:39:19.000 No, well, that was the backdrop for Oklahoma.

01:39:22.000 But they did this just because of like racial jealousy, just like they did it because they were doing well.

01:39:30.000 Yeah, they were doing too well.

01:39:31.000 And there was a lot of racial tension in the community.

01:39:34.000 Because the whole idea behind institutional racism is that poor white people don't mind being taken advantage of because they know that it's black people somewhere that's doing worse than them.

01:39:44.000 But that doesn't work if you're living next to dudes that's dressing better than you.

01:39:46.000 They got cars.

01:39:47.000 They got thriving business.

01:39:49.000 And it got racial.

01:39:50.000 The National Guard came in.

01:39:53.000 And that was all stuff I learned before I went there.

01:39:57.000 But then I went to the museum there.

01:39:59.000 And I bring this up just because it would blow your mind how recently they, like, they just now acknowledged it like five years ago.

01:40:12.000 Right?

01:40:13.000 This all happened because I was at the comedy club I was at.

01:40:16.000 I mentioned to the owner, I was like, I've stayed in Hilton's all over the place.

01:40:20.000 Why does my Hilton say, why does it have these pure things everywhere to tell you that the air is clean and the water's clean?

01:40:25.000 And he was like, oh, yeah, they just started filtering the water that goes to the north side of town like a few years ago, like the black side of town.

01:40:32.000 I was like, what?

01:40:33.000 Like, how long?

01:40:34.000 How recently?

01:40:34.000 He was like, 20.

01:40:36.000 And me and my friend was like, 20?

01:40:38.000 It's like, yeah.

01:40:40.000 So he was like, have you not been to the museum?

01:40:42.000 I'm like, no.

01:40:43.000 And so we went over there and it was like, it was a heavy day.

01:40:47.000 Bro, this is crazy.

01:40:48.000 Look at this statistics here.

01:40:51.000 How many blocks?

01:40:52.000 35 square blocks of the neighborhood.

01:40:56.000 Yeah.

01:40:57.000 At the time, one of the wealthiest black communities in the United States, colloquially known as Black Wall Street, more than 800 people were admitted to hospitals.

01:41:04.000 As many as 6,000 black residents of Tulsa were interned, many of them for several days.

01:41:09.000 The Oklahoma Bureau of Vital Statistics officially recorded 36 dead.

01:41:14.000 Whoa.

01:41:16.000 And so they just now started, like the guy told me.

01:41:16.000 Yeah.

01:41:20.000 Estimates from 36 to up to around 300 dead.

01:41:20.000 Look at this.

01:41:26.000 35 blocks.

01:41:28.000 Yeah, they don't know how many are dead because it was a lot of mass graves and stuff that they just started looking for.

01:41:33.000 Holy shit, man.

01:41:34.000 But even still to this day, they're not allowed to teach about it in schools.

01:41:39.000 They just now started being allowed to teach about it, but they're not allowed to say who was who.

01:41:43.000 Even the YouTube video is age restricted.

01:41:45.000 I was going to show it to you, but the account I'm on.

01:41:49.000 Yeah, this shit was crazy.

01:41:51.000 And so, Joe, if you want to feel real uncomfortable, so I'll go in the museum and they have these holograms.

01:41:58.000 So you sit in the barber chair and you can see yourself in the mirror, but there's a hologram of a barber like cutting your hair.

01:42:05.000 And there's three of them in a row.

01:42:07.000 And they're like having a conversation about what's going on around town.

01:42:12.000 It's heavy, bro.

01:42:13.000 Wow.

01:42:14.000 Put that back up.

01:42:15.000 So the cause of it, they're saying.

01:42:18.000 So it says the massacre began during Memorial Weekend after a 19-year-old Dick Rowland, a black shoeshiner, was accused of assaulting Sarah Page, a white 21-year-old elevator operator in nearby Drexel building.

01:42:32.000 He was arrested and rumors that he was to be lynched spread.

01:42:36.000 The most likely, most widely reported and corroborated inciting incident occurred as the group of black men left when an elderly white man approached O.B. Mann, a black man, and demanded that he hand over his pistol.

01:42:51.000 Mann refused and the old man attempted to disarm him.

01:42:54.000 A gunshot went off and then according to the sheriff's reports, all hell broke loose.

01:42:59.000 The two groups shot at each other until midnight when the group of black men were greatly outnumbered and forced to retreat to Greenwood.

01:43:06.000 Fuck.

01:43:08.000 At the end of the exchange of gunfire, 12 people were dead, 10 white and two black.

01:43:13.000 Alternatively, another eyewitness account was that the shooting began down the street from the courthouse when black business owners came to the defense of a lone black man being attacked by a group of around six white men.

01:43:25.000 It is possible the eyewitnesses did not recognize the fact that this incident was occurring as a part of a rolling gunfight that was already underway.

01:43:33.000 Holy fuck, man.

01:43:34.000 Yeah, shit went down in Greenwood.

01:43:36.000 And the thing is, it's still not back.

01:43:40.000 So then they put a highway right through the middle of that neighborhood.

01:43:48.000 And it completely destroyed all of the economy and everything.

01:43:53.000 Wow.

01:43:54.000 Yeah, man.

01:43:55.000 And I thought I knew about this shit.

01:44:00.000 But then when I went there, it was real intense for me.

01:44:05.000 But then we ate some good ass food.

01:44:08.000 It was me and Lucas McCurry.

01:44:09.000 And when we got done, when we got back to the hotel, he was like, oh, that's the blackest day I've ever had.

01:44:14.000 I was like, might be mad, too.

01:44:16.000 This is the place.

01:44:18.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's called the...

01:44:19.000 Oh, wow.

01:44:22.000 It's called the Black Wall Street Museum.

01:44:26.000 And they just recently admitted this?

01:44:31.000 They admitted it probably in 2010 or something like that.

01:44:36.000 They acknowledged it.

01:44:37.000 I mean, everyone already knew.

01:44:38.000 But now they're just now getting to the point where they're allowed to teach it.

01:44:42.000 But they still aren't allowed to say what the people look like.

01:44:45.000 So they can say group A did this and group B did that, but they can't say black, white.

01:44:49.000 They can't say Klan.

01:44:52.000 Really?

01:44:53.000 Yeah, they still won't say certain people's names because these are like the because the Klan is heavily involved too.

01:44:58.000 Like when you go to the museum, there's like a clan ledger of like the meeting, you know, like a like a roll call.

01:45:07.000 Yeah, it was a wild ass.

01:45:07.000 Whoa.

01:45:09.000 It's wild out there in Oklahoma.

01:45:11.000 And the thing is, they still haven't recovered.

01:45:13.000 That neighborhood is still not recovered.

01:45:15.000 I mean, they never will at this point.

01:45:17.000 The history of Oklahoma is so crazy.

01:45:19.000 Oklahoma is not.

01:45:20.000 Well, that's the thing.

01:45:21.000 So we get done the tour.

01:45:22.000 We walk out of the tour guide and I walk past this guy.

01:45:25.000 I didn't know he was one of the guides because we didn't take a guide.

01:45:28.000 We just walked through the museum ourselves.

01:45:29.000 And he goes, you look familiar.

01:45:31.000 And I was like, you probably know me from comedy or whatever.

01:45:34.000 He was like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:45:36.000 And he is like the guide.

01:45:39.000 And then we walked around with him for like an hour.

01:45:42.000 Oh, wow.

01:45:42.000 And he just, he told us, he was like, yeah, they don't even say everything.

01:45:45.000 So this is also, he took us to like all these historical spots.

01:45:49.000 And we ate at this place called Sweet Lisa's, which, bro, you could taste, you could taste the struggle, the season, everything, but the season.

01:45:58.000 Just perfection.

01:45:59.000 You know what I mean?

01:46:00.000 You could just tell this recipe came from the ancestors.

01:46:03.000 It was incredible.

01:46:05.000 And it's like in this little shop, they just got indoor seating.

01:46:09.000 Wow.

01:46:10.000 Yeah, it was like, it was like, it was, it was almost like, I guess, because in my mind, it's easy to learn about shit like that and think of it as something that happened a long time ago.

01:46:18.000 But then to be there and realize, like, they still haven't come all the way back.

01:46:23.000 You see that photo of that lady, that Native American lady at the front door where she's breastfeeding a child?

01:46:29.000 You've seen it.

01:46:30.000 Oh, at the mothership?

01:46:31.000 Yeah, here, here, in this room.

01:46:32.000 Oh, no.

01:46:33.000 You never saw it?

01:46:33.000 I went outside.

01:46:34.000 No.

01:46:35.000 You know that one, you've seen the painting of a Native American face that's on bullets.

01:46:41.000 It's like all the way back.

01:46:42.000 Oh, yeah.

01:46:43.000 That's Kwana Parker.

01:46:43.000 You've seen that?

01:46:45.000 That lady, Cynthia Ann Parker, she was kidnapped by Comanches in Oklahoma.

01:46:50.000 So what they used to do in Oklahoma is, this is so dark.

01:46:54.000 They would give people these plots of land, knowing they were going to get attacked by the Comanches.

01:47:01.000 Like, hey, you could go live out here.

01:47:03.000 And they basically used them as bait.

01:47:07.000 They started conflict to try to conquer these territories by just having people go out there and get shot at and get killed and get slaughtered.

01:47:16.000 And then eventually they would have to send the army out.

01:47:18.000 And then they won.

01:47:20.000 After a long time, they eventually went through that and went through here or at Texas.

01:47:25.000 The Comanche ran this place too.

01:47:27.000 But they killed her whole family and they stole her when she was nine years old and they kept her because they had a hard time having children because they had so many horse riders.

01:47:37.000 They were riding horses all the time and a lot of women miscarried.

01:47:39.000 So it's very difficult for them to keep their numbers up.

01:47:41.000 So when they would go on raiding parties, they would kill everybody except the children and then they incorporate the children into the tribe.

01:47:47.000 Cynthia Ann Parker was the last of that tribe.

01:47:52.000 She gave birth to Quana Parker, who's the last chief of that tribe.

01:47:56.000 She married the chief of the tribe.

01:47:58.000 She had a baby with him.

01:47:59.000 That baby, that half-American baby, was Quana Parker.

01:48:03.000 He was the last chief of the Comanches.

01:48:05.000 So now there's no more Comanches.

01:48:06.000 I mean, they still exist, but they don't have a reservation.

01:48:09.000 Like, you know, like, they don't have territory.

01:48:13.000 They were nomadic.

01:48:14.000 And they ran all.

01:48:15.000 I mean, I'm sure they, is there a Comanche reservation?

01:48:18.000 We should find that out.

01:48:18.000 Probably not.

01:48:19.000 But they don't get represented because they didn't have art.

01:48:23.000 It's a crazy thing.

01:48:25.000 Well, the dude was telling me that, like, so there were four tribes considered the civilized tribes.

01:48:31.000 And those are the people that agreed to stop fighting the United States, to like learn English, to like be Christian, those kind of things.

01:48:39.000 And they were promised Oklahoma knowing that it was already commanded.

01:48:43.000 And so they got out there and got the.

01:48:45.000 Yeah, the United States government did that with everybody.

01:48:48.000 The Comanche Nation is a federal recognized tribe headquartered in Lawton, Oklahoma.

01:48:48.000 Bro.

01:48:53.000 But do they have a reservation there?

01:48:55.000 There's no longer a Comanche reservation in Texas.

01:48:58.000 The historical one established in 1854 near Clear Fork of the Brazos River in present-day Thockmorton County.

01:49:06.000 The Comanche were later forced to relocate to Indian Territory, now known as Oklahoma in 1859 after the reservation was dissolved.

01:49:14.000 And the current Comanche Nation is based in Oklahoma.

01:49:16.000 So it seems like they don't have a reservation.

01:49:19.000 Bro, it's mad history that I'm so ignorant about.

01:49:22.000 Got to read this book, Empire of the Summer Moon.

01:49:24.000 Get it on audio.

01:49:25.000 It's incredible.

01:49:26.000 Empire of the Summer Moon.

01:49:27.000 Empire of the Summer Moon.

01:49:29.000 It's all about the Comanche in Texas and in Oklahoma.

01:49:31.000 But that's part of the story.

01:49:33.000 So what I was getting at is the history of Oklahoma is just seeped in violence.

01:49:39.000 And it's still not fixed.

01:49:41.000 It can't be.

01:49:42.000 But a lot of people are moving there right now.

01:49:43.000 Well, I bet.

01:49:45.000 A lot of people want to move to a place where they don't get fucked with as much.

01:49:48.000 You know what California is?

01:49:49.000 What's called it?

01:49:50.000 Empire of the Summer Moon.

01:49:54.000 You know what California is proposing?

01:49:57.000 I don't know if they're going to do this, if they're going to be able to pull this off, but there's a new wealth tax that's basically they're going to tax your savings account.

01:50:04.000 I've looked it up.

01:50:04.000 It's only for 200 billionaires.

01:50:07.000 What?

01:50:07.000 Is what that's for?

01:50:09.000 What does that mean?

01:50:10.000 It's not for like every person.

01:50:12.000 Okay.

01:50:13.000 Even if it's for 200 billionaires, that's their fucking money.

01:50:16.000 If you have a savings account, that means you paid taxes already.

01:50:20.000 Like that's the only way you get a savings account.

01:50:23.000 They're taxing billionaires' savings accounts.

01:50:25.000 This is what I was reading today when people were talking about the proposition, this proposition of a wealth tax for savings accounts.

01:50:33.000 That sounds, if I'm not reading into this incorrectly, it sounds crazy.

01:50:38.000 Whatever.

01:50:39.000 I'm just saying, I understand, but why?

01:50:42.000 Why do you get to have a one-time tax of money that's already taxed?

01:50:45.000 California does not currently have a wealth tax, but multiple proposals have been introduced, including a recent one for a one-time 5% tax on individuals with a net worth of over $1 billion.

01:50:57.000 Yeah, I'm with Jamie on this.

01:50:58.000 Fuck them.

01:50:59.000 Yeah, but not fuck them because that could be you someday.

01:51:01.000 Here's the thing.

01:51:02.000 It's like it starts with them and then it trickles down to someone who's worth $500,000 or $5 million or whatever.

01:51:09.000 5% on money that you've already been taxed for.

01:51:12.000 And then it goes to what, though, when you say fuck them.

01:51:14.000 All it does is make more bloated government.

01:51:16.000 Because what are they going to do?

01:51:17.000 They're going to spend it wisely?

01:51:19.000 They never spent any money wisely.

01:51:20.000 The reason I say fuck them is because most of these billionaires, they go out of their way not to pay the taxes they're supposed to pay anyway.

01:51:25.000 It's not like they're getting tax.

01:51:28.000 A lot of these motherfuckers don't even pay any taxes.

01:51:30.000 Oh, that's not true.

01:51:31.000 They all pay taxes.

01:51:32.000 Everyone pays taxes.

01:51:34.000 It's just taxes on what?

01:51:36.000 Like a lot of them, the way it works is all your money is in assets and you get paid a certain amount by the company.

01:51:43.000 Like that's how, like, so when someone's worth X amount of money, that's not like how much money they have liquid.

01:51:49.000 Right, right.

01:51:49.000 I get it.

01:51:50.000 You know, that's a lot of it.

01:51:51.000 But the point is, the government should not be taking your money that's already been taxed.

01:51:58.000 If I'm reading into this correctly, so if you get a paycheck from the mothership and then, you know, you do your taxes, and then you take that money and you put it in a savings account, you've already paid your taxes.

01:52:09.000 So if you've already paid your taxes on that money, how can they tax money that you've already taxed?

01:52:13.000 That's crazy.

01:52:14.000 I don't agree with you how much money they own.

01:52:17.000 I don't care how much if there's a loophole in the tax code, fix the loophole.

01:52:21.000 But if it's there and that's the law and they are able to skirt around that law in whatever way that's legal, you don't get to steal their money.

01:52:29.000 According to the Washington Post, this is from a healthcare workers union.

01:52:32.000 That's a recent proposal, and it will go to fund health care spending.

01:52:37.000 It still has to be voted on also.

01:52:40.000 But either way, all you're doing is taking money from people.

01:52:44.000 And the group believes this could raise about $100 billion.

01:52:48.000 Right.

01:52:49.000 And what would they do with it?

01:52:50.000 What do they do with the fire money?

01:52:52.000 What happened to all the money that was raised for the Pacific Palisades fire?

01:52:55.000 Does anybody know?

01:52:58.000 That's a charity being corrupt.

01:52:59.000 That wasn't the government.

01:52:59.000 Right.

01:53:00.000 But this is what I'm saying.

01:53:01.000 It's the same thing.

01:53:02.000 It's a group of people.

01:53:03.000 You're giving them a bunch of money and they're supposed to allocate it in a positive way.

01:53:07.000 Whether it's the government or whether it's a charity, who fucking trusts anybody that's doing these things to be wise with the money where it makes sense, where you're a billionaire going, you know what?

01:53:17.000 I like it.

01:53:18.000 Take my 5% and we're going to fix crime.

01:53:21.000 No, you're not fixing shit.

01:53:22.000 You're just going to take my money and you're just going to be more incompetent.

01:53:25.000 Do you know when Gavin Newsom got into office?

01:53:29.000 They had a surplus.

01:53:30.000 California had a surplus.

01:53:32.000 Yes.

01:53:32.000 Really?

01:53:34.000 Why don't you Google that?

01:53:37.000 What was the surplus of California and during the time where Gavin Newsom was the governor, how much is the deficit?

01:53:46.000 Because I only hear surplus with regard to Bill Clinton.

01:53:50.000 Bro, they spent $24 billion on the homeless crisis and it got worse.

01:53:56.000 So this is what I'm saying.

01:53:58.000 You're going to take tax money and you're going to do what with it?

01:54:01.000 In 2022, California Governor Gavin Newsom announced record-breaking budget surplus of approximately $97.5 billion, which was projected to fund new initiatives like cash payments to residents and investments in drought relief, childcare, and education.

01:54:16.000 However, the state later forced a significant budget deficit.

01:54:20.000 Excuse me.

01:54:21.000 However, the state later faced a significant budget deficit, primarily due to overestimating revenues from a booming stock market that later declined, coupled with increased spending commitments during the surplus period.

01:54:35.000 By 2024, Newsom was proposing a budget to close a multi-billion dollar deficit, which required spending cuts and other measures to balance a budget.

01:54:46.000 So the surplus of $97.5 billion, it became a multi-billion dollar deficit in two years.

01:54:55.000 Because of the stock market?

01:54:57.000 It seems like there's a lot of stuff.

01:54:58.000 Overestimating revenues, increased spending commitments, which is probably a big part of it.

01:55:05.000 They probably spent too much money during the surplus period.

01:55:08.000 But the point is, it's mismanagement.

01:55:10.000 What if they only tax the people that's on the Epstein list?

01:55:12.000 Ah, you only get so much.

01:55:14.000 Just take all their money.

01:55:15.000 Yeah, if you're on the list, take all your money.

01:55:17.000 They'd probably only get a few hundred billion dollars.

01:55:19.000 That's the thing.

01:55:20.000 It's like, at the end of the day, they're going to blow through that money.

01:55:24.000 It sounds crazy, but they're going to blow through that money.

01:55:26.000 They blow through all the money.

01:55:28.000 But, you know, I mean, you're right.

01:55:30.000 It's not fair on paper, but it's hard to have empathy for people that have way more than the people.

01:55:34.000 You know what I mean?

01:55:35.000 Oh, yeah.

01:55:35.000 It's not having empathy.

01:55:36.000 I'm just recognizing the law and recognizing where this goes.

01:55:40.000 The problem with any decision that we make on people that have more money than us, eventually it's going to trickle down to you.

01:55:48.000 Because if they could just tax these people, because there's only 200 of them, they can't really talk too much shit.

01:55:53.000 You're like, okay, but why are you doing that?

01:55:56.000 Look, if they did something illegal to get that money and you're going to punish them for that, I'm all with you.

01:56:01.000 But if they have the money and then it's in their savings account and then you decide to tax the savings account because you need money to do what?

01:56:08.000 More incompetent bullshit?

01:56:10.000 That's the problem.

01:56:11.000 Like they're not competent.

01:56:13.000 If you're going to take that 5% and you knew this is going to be what cleans up the Palisades, this is going to be what fixes education.

01:56:19.000 But it's not.

01:56:20.000 It's not going to do anything.

01:56:21.000 The homeless crisis gets worse.

01:56:23.000 It's bigger than ever.

01:56:24.000 Well, that's a whole, the homeless thing is a whole racket because I experienced that firsthand.

01:56:31.000 It's just people making money.

01:56:32.000 That money isn't going to actually help anybody that's on the streets.

01:56:35.000 I mean, it kind of is, but not really.

01:56:39.000 There's so many charities that are dirty.

01:56:41.000 Just like people that are dirty, like those creepy guys who pretend to be male feminists and you know they're really a piece of shit.

01:56:47.000 You know what I mean?

01:56:48.000 Like that's the type of people that set up charities, but they really just want the money.

01:56:52.000 Like there's people that have run charities where the charity makes the actual thing makes like 6%, 10% of the money generated.

01:57:01.000 Most of it goes to the people and they have lavish lifestyles.

01:57:05.000 They get paid tremendous salaries.

01:57:07.000 They'd ever tell you that to run charities.

01:57:09.000 The shelter I was living in, the guy that was running the place got he got high and then the executive had to show up and he pulled up in a fucking phantom with a fancy ass suit on and a nice ass watch.

01:57:24.000 I was like, hold on, how the fuck is he?

01:57:26.000 Because that's the first time it hit everybody like, oh, this isn't a.

01:57:29.000 It's a business.

01:57:29.000 Yeah, it's a business.

01:57:30.000 Yeah.

01:57:30.000 It's a business.

01:57:31.000 They're generating income, spending the least amount possible, providing you with the least amount of care that they have to, and then pocketing the rest.

01:57:38.000 And say, we got a high overhead.

01:57:40.000 And as long as somebody dies.

01:57:40.000 Very high overhead.

01:57:42.000 Because that's the thing.

01:57:43.000 It's all a racket and everyone knows it's like all wink wink.

01:57:46.000 But the rules actually applied to the actual homeless residents.

01:57:51.000 But it was all nonsense.

01:57:52.000 It was like, they were real strict about you.

01:57:54.000 Make sure you signing these papers saying you were doing these activities because they were getting grants for those things.

01:57:59.000 Exactly.

01:58:00.000 But it's like, well, just put my signature on there.

01:58:02.000 This is all bullshit.

01:58:04.000 That's crazy.

01:58:05.000 Yeah, I think most charities are scam.

01:58:08.000 Most charities have an element of scam.

01:58:10.000 There's a lot of legitimate charities out there for sure.

01:58:10.000 Yeah.

01:58:12.000 There's a lot of really good charitable people out there for sure.

01:58:16.000 Real people that are doing charities for the right reasons.

01:58:17.000 Yeah, well, the workers, a lot of the workers are in there for the right reasons.

01:58:20.000 Yes.

01:58:20.000 But it's just like it's just like colleges, right?

01:58:22.000 Where it's like, it's just that the entity has become so bloated with, because I think, can you look it up, Jimmy?

01:58:31.000 Most of the top universities, most of their money goes towards administration.

01:58:35.000 So they've just, you know, first they hire people to collect the money, and then they got to hire more people to watch over those people, and then more people get more.

01:58:43.000 And then before you know it, the whole admin side is so bloated that the college gets upside down if they don't raise tuition.

01:58:52.000 You know, and it just keeps going, and it's a cycle just keeps going and going and going and going.

01:58:55.000 They only have donors, which is weird.

01:58:58.000 I don't understand how that works.

01:59:00.000 Crazy amounts of money people donate to colleges.

01:59:03.000 Yeah, that people love their alma mater, but there must be a tax thing, too.

01:59:07.000 Where does the money from most universities go?

01:59:09.000 The money from most universities primarily goes towards faculty and staff salaries, student services, and campus maintenance.

01:59:16.000 Significant portion is also allocated to research, academic programs, and scholarships.

01:59:21.000 Universities spend on maintaining buildings and facilities, supporting student housing and dining, healthcare, technology upgrades, and activities like sports and events, government funding, tuition, investments, grants, donations, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

01:59:35.000 Eventually, administrative costs and strategic initiatives also consume parts of the budget.

01:59:39.000 Overall, salaries and wages usually make up the largest expenditure category for universities.

01:59:44.000 So it's salaries.

01:59:46.000 They get a lot of money.

01:59:46.000 Yeah.

01:59:47.000 It's salary for the admin people, the fucking coaches.

01:59:53.000 Some of those coaches.

01:59:54.000 Well, there's weird gigs that people have where a major university will pay someone like a half a million dollars a year to do stuff.

02:00:02.000 Like, does Elizabeth Warren get paid from Harvard still?

02:00:06.000 Like, you could, like, to like speak?

02:00:08.000 Yeah, like, you know who had one of them gigs?

02:00:10.000 Biden.

02:00:11.000 He had one of them gigs where they gave him like a million dollars a year and he pretended he was a professor.

02:00:16.000 And then, you know, like he said, when I taught law at Penn State or wherever it was, he taught.

02:00:21.000 It was like professor amazing.

02:00:22.000 Yeah, but he never taught a class.

02:00:24.000 Like, it's all horseshit.

02:00:25.000 Oh, he was never anything.

02:00:27.000 He got one of those sweet gigs where you get money from the university.

02:00:30.000 Bro, sign me up.

02:00:32.000 Those are like mafia jobs.

02:00:34.000 Yeah, I'll take a bullshit job in my home.

02:00:36.000 Elizabeth Warren, currently United States Senator, she's on leave from her teaching position at Harvard and no longer receives a salary from the university.

02:00:43.000 Her current annual salary as a senator is $174,000.

02:00:47.000 She and her husband, also a Harvard professor, report additional income from book royalties and investments.

02:00:54.000 Her salary for this 2010 to 2011 was reported at $429,000.

02:01:01.000 This figure came under scrutiny during her first Senate campaign with critics mischaracterizing it as payment for teaching only one class.

02:01:09.000 PolitiFact rated this claim half-true because the amount covered a two-year period in which she taught two classes and was on leave to advise the Obama administration and also reflected her status as a high-ranking accomplished professor and researcher.

02:01:26.000 Stop mischaracterizing this, Jeff Joe.

02:01:28.000 What is her net worth?

02:01:30.000 Put that in there.

02:01:33.000 Net worth.

02:01:34.000 That's not going to be accurate.

02:01:35.000 Let's find out.

02:01:36.000 Bro, this shit's always wrong.

02:01:39.000 That's not a good place to look.

02:01:41.000 Because I look with the net worth shit, the internet be right.

02:01:44.000 They said I'm worth $4 million.

02:01:46.000 I say, where the fuck that money at?

02:01:48.000 Maybe they just say you should be.

02:01:50.000 I think people just be making up shit.

02:01:51.000 Well, they definitely do that.

02:01:52.000 Yeah.

02:01:53.000 They definitely make up stuff, especially those websites.

02:01:54.000 That's like some Indian website.

02:01:57.000 Some scammer dude is just faking it.

02:02:00.000 Just trying to get clicks.

02:02:01.000 Yeah, maybe they said.

02:02:04.000 It says an estimated, this is in Open Secrets.

02:02:09.000 Oh, in the Senate.

02:02:10.000 In the Senate.

02:02:11.000 So an estimated net worth of $7,977,000 in 2018.

02:02:19.000 That was in 2018.

02:02:20.000 She was worth that much.

02:02:21.000 Isn't there an app where you can match the stock trades of senators?

02:02:25.000 Yes, the Pelosi tracker.

02:02:27.000 Oh, it's just her?

02:02:28.000 She's the best.

02:02:29.000 Oh, she's the goat.

02:02:30.000 So if you just make all the same moves she make, you'll be good.

02:02:33.000 You'll make some money.

02:02:34.000 Yeah, 100%.

02:02:36.000 Especially if you act quick.

02:02:37.000 I'm sure there's a lot of people doing exactly what she does the moment she does it.

02:02:40.000 I got to get one of those guys and just be like, yeah, put it all on.

02:02:42.000 If she makes, okay, now she's worth 30 million.

02:02:45.000 No, no, no, no, no, no.

02:02:46.000 What's that?

02:02:46.000 This is the Pelosi tracker.

02:02:48.000 Oh.

02:02:48.000 There's 14,557 copiers.

02:02:52.000 I was going to say she's worth way more than 30 million, right?

02:02:54.000 She invested that much money.

02:02:55.000 Isn't she worth like a couple hundred million?

02:02:57.000 I think so.

02:02:58.000 Yeah, she's worth a lot.

02:02:59.000 She's about to retire.

02:03:00.000 Of course.

02:03:01.000 She's got $400 million.

02:03:03.000 She's a million years old.

02:03:04.000 Why is she still working?

02:03:06.000 It's crazy.

02:03:07.000 Can you imagine working at that age, 82?

02:03:11.000 I think they're addicted to the power.

02:03:12.000 Power.

02:03:14.000 You can't have.

02:03:15.000 Let's bring up Margaret Taylor Green's recent stock trades.

02:03:17.000 Oh, she's been making some stock trades?

02:03:19.000 Yeah, follows everybody.

02:03:20.000 Bro, they all follow everyone.

02:03:22.000 They all do.

02:03:23.000 They all do.

02:03:24.000 I think that should be illegal.

02:03:26.000 I don't think anyone in the federal government should be able to trade stocks.

02:03:26.000 It should be illegal.

02:03:29.000 Well, especially with stuff where you have some inside knowledge about a bill that's going to be passed that would be very, very good for some corporation.

02:03:37.000 Right.

02:03:39.000 Or they all have to invest through like, there's like, there's a nonpartisan government agency where they can put all their money they want to invest that invests everyone's money in the same thing.

02:03:47.000 No, no, no.

02:03:48.000 No.

02:03:48.000 Because you start doing that, and then you got more corruption, more room for bureaucracy, more room for bullshit.

02:03:54.000 You got too much money flowing around.

02:03:55.000 So they're not going to be easy.

02:03:56.000 So what do you say to the argument that they should be able to?

02:03:59.000 No, you're insider trading.

02:04:01.000 What if they just tell people to do it for them?

02:04:03.000 Well, that's what they're supposed to be doing now.

02:04:03.000 How do you stop that?

02:04:05.000 Yeah, I mean, what's the end?

02:04:07.000 No, that could be a problem.

02:04:09.000 But at least then they could catch you and you can get in trouble.

02:04:11.000 That's how insider trading works.

02:04:13.000 Like, so say if they do that and they do it, you know, through WhatsApp or something like that, and then the government gets access to your WhatsApp and then they find out you've been trading.

02:04:22.000 Joe seen an email staying with the lady getting emails during it.

02:04:26.000 It's like, what?

02:04:26.000 No, if it was to me, it'd be Judge Dredd shit.

02:04:30.000 Wait a minute.

02:04:31.000 You get four terms and then they take you out.

02:04:34.000 They just put you out in the desert with nothing.

02:04:36.000 They take all your shit, donate it back to the people, and they just send you out.

02:04:40.000 You were in charge for, you know, however long?

02:04:42.000 And now get the fuck out of here.

02:04:43.000 Like, there's no way you make $170,000 a year, and you're worth, let's say she's worth $180 million.

02:04:52.000 I've heard it's a lot more than that.

02:04:54.000 I've heard estimates as high as $400 million.

02:04:57.000 But there's no way a regular person who makes $170,000 a year ever gets there and keeps that $170,000 a year job.

02:05:05.000 Get the fuck out of here.

02:05:07.000 There's not a chance in hell you keep that $170,000 a year job where you're working eight hours a day every fucking day and on the side you've racked up $400 million.

02:05:17.000 Well, bitch, that's what you're good at.

02:05:19.000 Imagine if you were doing that all day long while you've been working in the Senate.

02:05:22.000 You would have even more money.

02:05:24.000 You're wasting all your valuable time and resources doing a job that pays you $170,000 a year, but it has nothing to do with your investments.

02:05:24.000 Are you crazy?

02:05:33.000 Why would you even suspect that it has anything to do with the profit that I make for my investment?

02:05:37.000 Is she the richest person in Congress?

02:05:40.000 She's got to be up there.

02:05:41.000 She can't be.

02:05:41.000 Well, there's probably some billionaires who signed up and won and got into office somewhere.

02:05:47.000 There's probably a lot of them.

02:05:48.000 But they're all, the thing is, they're all richer when they leave.

02:05:51.000 Well, Bloomberg, wasn't he like a multi-billionaire when he became the mayor of New York City?

02:05:56.000 I don't know.

02:05:56.000 I think he was.

02:05:58.000 Michael Bloomberg is crazy rich.

02:06:00.000 I think he was a billionaire while he became mayor because he wanted to fix New York City because he loved it.

02:06:05.000 That's the.

02:06:07.000 Did it work?

02:06:07.000 Wow.

02:06:09.000 That was just there.

02:06:09.000 It was nice.

02:06:11.000 Worth $109 billion estimated.

02:06:13.000 Yeah.

02:06:14.000 He's worth a lot of money.

02:06:15.000 Imagine.

02:06:15.000 Richest person.

02:06:16.000 Bro, those sandwiches, those sandwiches you put up?

02:06:18.000 Ooh, Giovanni's Italian deli, bro.

02:06:21.000 But you could barely get your mouth on them.

02:06:22.000 They're like that big.

02:06:23.000 I want him to come out here.

02:06:24.000 I want him to open up a deli out here.

02:06:27.000 Willie, are you talking to him about it?

02:06:30.000 He said he would be interested in doing it.

02:06:32.000 I mean, look, he's a fucking hilarious character.

02:06:35.000 He's a very funny guy.

02:06:37.000 And his food is fucking sensational.

02:06:39.000 And all of it gets imported from Italy.

02:06:41.000 So he can import it from Italy.

02:06:43.000 All the ingredients?

02:06:44.000 Yes.

02:06:44.000 Everything is imported from Italy.

02:06:46.000 Or the mortadella, the mozzarella, all that stuff.

02:06:50.000 So he's getting it all from Italy.

02:06:52.000 All the sun-dried peppers.

02:06:53.000 Bro, it's sensational.

02:06:56.000 I mean, it looks good.

02:06:57.000 I've still never had a chance to try it.

02:06:59.000 Next time.

02:06:59.000 Next time I go to New York, you're coming with me.

02:07:01.000 All right.

02:07:02.000 Bro, you're going to feel so bad the next day, though.

02:07:04.000 Oh, my God.

02:07:05.000 Sunday, I was like, I'm not eating.

02:07:07.000 I'm not eating anymore.

02:07:08.000 I looked like I was pregnant.

02:07:09.000 My stomach was out like that far.

02:07:11.000 I ate so much.

02:07:12.000 He gave me a four-foot-long sandwich, dude.

02:07:15.000 It was four feet long.

02:07:16.000 I just kept stuffing it in my fat face.

02:07:18.000 Yeah, I was getting it.

02:07:19.000 I ate meatballs.

02:07:20.000 I ate four or five cannolis.

02:07:22.000 I ate so much.

02:07:23.000 I should not have gone that deep.

02:07:25.000 And what, do they cater to the event?

02:07:27.000 Why do they drop off giant sandwiches?

02:07:29.000 He just does it for me.

02:07:31.000 I've blown him up online.

02:07:33.000 I've blown him up on the podcast.

02:07:35.000 His deli's killing it.

02:07:37.000 He's a great guy.

02:07:37.000 That's a good guy.

02:07:38.000 And I found them just randomly.

02:07:40.000 G and R deli in the Bronx.

02:07:42.000 That's how I found them.

02:07:43.000 After you left.

02:07:44.000 What do you mean?

02:07:45.000 This is like.

02:07:45.000 After you left New York.

02:07:46.000 Oh, yeah.

02:07:46.000 This is recently.

02:07:47.000 This is like within a couple of years.

02:07:51.000 You know, because most of the time I eat really clean.

02:07:52.000 And most of the time it's just meat.

02:07:54.000 But when I go off, I like to really go off.

02:07:58.000 I've seen you literally like eat like a hostage.

02:08:01.000 Like somebody that just got released.

02:08:03.000 It's a problem.

02:08:05.000 I'm a real glutton, man.

02:08:07.000 I eat massive.

02:08:08.000 It's not just eating food that I shouldn't be eating.

02:08:11.000 I'll eat a massive amount of it.

02:08:12.000 Yeah.

02:08:13.000 Some good pasta.

02:08:14.000 It's hard to stop.

02:08:15.000 I can't stop.

02:08:16.000 It's hard to stop.

02:08:17.000 Oh, yeah.

02:08:17.000 Well, so I ate at this place Teresi with my wife on Friday night.

02:08:21.000 That was incredible.

02:08:22.000 It's Italian food.

02:08:23.000 I ate way too much there.

02:08:25.000 It was sensational.

02:08:27.000 And then the next day, Giovanni shows up with these two giant four-foot sandwiches.

02:08:32.000 But my rule is when I'm in New York, all bets are off.

02:08:36.000 All that diet shit's out the window.

02:08:38.000 I'm eating for fun.

02:08:39.000 I'm just eating for fun when I'm in New York.

02:08:41.000 My greedy ass.

02:08:42.000 I ate it Daidouille.

02:08:44.000 How do you say it?

02:08:45.000 Oh, Daidou.

02:08:46.000 At a Daidouille on Sunday, and then I did sushi about scratch last night.

02:08:49.000 Oh, my God.

02:08:50.000 Shout out to Jesse Griffiths.

02:08:51.000 Jesse's the head chef and the owner of Daidoue.

02:08:54.000 He's the man.

02:08:55.000 Brilliant.

02:08:56.000 I stumbled onto that place, and I thought I was putting you on.

02:08:59.000 You were like, oh, I know that guy.

02:09:00.000 Yeah, I found out about that place years ago because he was on my friend Stephen Renella's podcast.

02:09:06.000 And I was like, oh, that guy is so interesting.

02:09:09.000 And so I actually had, I don't know if I had him on my podcast before I ate at his restaurant or after.

02:09:15.000 I don't remember.

02:09:16.000 But then we went to his restaurant during the pandemic when we first moved here.

02:09:20.000 And it was like, you had to be spread out.

02:09:21.000 We actually ate outside the first time we did it because we couldn't eat inside yet.

02:09:25.000 Bro, and you know, you know what I, because I love, because, you know, it's great restaurants all over Austin.

02:09:30.000 And I know, I know it's going to be good whenever the staff is generally happy to be there.

02:09:37.000 Like you go on Daidou, everyone fucking loves it there.

02:09:41.000 Especially like if you see old people working there.

02:09:44.000 Yeah, you see somebody that like, you know, that's pushing 50 and they still happy and gingerly, you know, it's going to be good.

02:09:55.000 Yeah, Daidou is sensational.

02:09:57.000 And the thing about them is everything is from Texas.

02:10:00.000 There's nothing in there.

02:10:01.000 You can't even get like a Diet Coke in there.

02:10:04.000 They don't have anything that ain't from Texas.

02:10:07.000 Nothing.

02:10:08.000 So good, too.

02:10:09.000 Yeah.

02:10:10.000 And he always has like exotic shit on the menu.

02:10:13.000 Yeah, the menu is always changing, but you can always get those pork chops.

02:10:17.000 Oh, yes.

02:10:17.000 Pork chops are sick.

02:10:18.000 Wild board chops.

02:10:19.000 Sensational.

02:10:20.000 Yeah.

02:10:21.000 Everything's sensational.

02:10:22.000 Jesse's like one of the best chefs in the country.

02:10:24.000 I've been there enough times now where I know like anything you order is going to be good.

02:10:28.000 We are spoiled here, bro.

02:10:30.000 Yeah, big time.

02:10:31.000 There's so much good food in Texas, and specifically in Austin.

02:10:35.000 At the medium to high level.

02:10:37.000 The fast food is trash.

02:10:40.000 Seriously, if it's not a Texas fast food place, it's such a phenomenon to me.

02:10:48.000 Like, what's trash?

02:10:49.000 Like, everything that's not a Texas place.

02:10:51.000 Like, Dan's is great.

02:10:53.000 Whataburger is great.

02:10:54.000 But, like, but, like, Chick-fil-A is not as good.

02:10:57.000 McDonald's is not as good.

02:10:59.000 Chick-fil-A is not as good as Wendy's is terrible.

02:11:01.000 I had Chick-fil-A, like, a month ago.

02:11:02.000 It was amazing.

02:11:03.000 No, it's okay, but it's not up to.

02:11:06.000 It's different.

02:11:07.000 The service is not as good.

02:11:09.000 I mean, Chick-fil-A tastes the same everywhere.

02:11:10.000 You go inside?

02:11:11.000 Did you?

02:11:12.000 You're not going inside or drive-through thing, man.

02:11:15.000 You want to eat in your car like a pig.

02:11:18.000 Like a disgusting person who hates himself.

02:11:19.000 But Chick-fil-A might be somewhat of an exception, but even In-N-Out, even In-N Out here is not as good.

02:11:25.000 Were you telling me that Chick-fil-A has like aluminum in it?

02:11:27.000 Were you one of those televisions?

02:11:29.000 That's probably Kirk Messenger.

02:11:29.000 That was Tony, I think.

02:11:30.000 It was Tony?

02:11:31.000 Yeah, it was Tony.

02:11:32.000 Yeah, he was saying Chick-fil-A has aluminum in it or something.

02:11:35.000 What does it have in it?

02:11:37.000 What is the controversial ingredient?

02:11:38.000 I think it's the buns or something, but it's aluminum.

02:11:41.000 It's in a lot of stuff.

02:11:43.000 Aluminum what, though?

02:11:44.000 It's not just aluminum.

02:11:45.000 No, no, no, no, no.

02:11:46.000 It's not.

02:11:47.000 It's foil.

02:11:48.000 They grind up foil, which makes it thicker.

02:11:51.000 But sometimes certain names sound scary.

02:11:55.000 Right, right, right.

02:11:56.000 But it's just something normal.

02:11:58.000 Right.

02:11:58.000 Like vitamin C sounds scary.

02:12:00.000 Acorbic acid.

02:12:01.000 Oh, no.

02:12:02.000 Sodium aluminum phosphate.

02:12:04.000 Is that a preservative?

02:12:04.000 Yeah.

02:12:05.000 I'll look it up.

02:12:07.000 Man, fuck preservatives.

02:12:08.000 That's what's wrong with us.

02:12:10.000 Everything is preserving your gut biome.

02:12:13.000 It's all getting in there.

02:12:14.000 All this bacteria.

02:12:16.000 Sodium aluminum phosphate, a food additive.

02:12:18.000 Yeah, I don't think that's bad.

02:12:21.000 But also, also, I've probably eaten so much of whatever that is.

02:12:26.000 Oh, yeah.

02:12:26.000 Yeah.

02:12:27.000 Yeah.

02:12:29.000 You think about food like that, you're just not supposed to eat it every day.

02:12:33.000 That's all it is.

02:12:34.000 It's really good if you just want to eat it and enjoy it.

02:12:36.000 Like, you ever have Keynes, those chicken fingers?

02:12:38.000 Yeah, yeah, I've heard good.

02:12:40.000 Yeah, Kane's.

02:12:41.000 It's pretty good.

02:12:42.000 Just don't do it every day.

02:12:44.000 Just every now and again.

02:12:45.000 But again, even Canes, even Kane's is better in other places.

02:12:50.000 What?

02:12:51.000 Are you a Keynes connoisseur?

02:12:52.000 No, no, but I'm just, I've eaten, I'm fast food.

02:12:55.000 I've eaten a lot of fast food.

02:12:57.000 I've heard that In-N-Out here is not as good.

02:12:59.000 In-N-Out Here is not as good.

02:13:01.000 Wendy's is not as good.

02:13:02.000 Does the internet out here have the same...

02:13:03.000 KFC's bad.

02:13:04.000 Does it In-N-Out here have the same sort of menu or you can get off-menu stuff?

02:13:10.000 No, it's the same.

02:13:10.000 It's the same everything, except the service sucks, and the food is not as, it's just not as consistent.

02:13:16.000 You know what I mean?

02:13:17.000 Okay.

02:13:17.000 Like, because I've never, before being, before here, I've never been to it.

02:13:21.000 Because you know, like, Chick-fil-A and In-N-Out, that's a certain standard.

02:13:25.000 Especially if you're coming from L.A.

02:13:26.000 But you said McDonald's, too.

02:13:27.000 Yeah, the McDonald's here is trash.

02:13:29.000 It's a food distribution issue.

02:13:30.000 Is it?

02:13:31.000 Yeah.

02:13:32.000 This happened once when McDonald's actually bought my favorite pizza place from Ohio.

02:13:36.000 They couldn't expand it, right?

02:13:37.000 Because you couldn't get the same ingredients you get in Ohio.

02:13:41.000 Florida.

02:13:42.000 So you don't want a quality.

02:13:43.000 But doesn't McDonald's send all the ingredients to all their places?

02:13:46.000 Like that means you don't have one giant McDonald's farm.

02:13:49.000 You don't?

02:13:50.000 No.

02:13:51.000 No.

02:13:52.000 I mean, we wouldn't know where that is, you know?

02:13:54.000 Oh, my God.

02:13:55.000 Imagine the slaughter going on at the McDonald's farm.

02:13:57.000 How many fucking cows are losing their life?

02:13:59.000 You got a source that you're going to get.

02:14:01.000 But if I'm going to eat at McDonald's in any city, you can find the good McDonald's.

02:14:07.000 Like, you just Google the good McDonald's in Detroit, whatever.

02:14:10.000 But here there aren't any.

02:14:12.000 They're all terrible.

02:14:13.000 Yeah.

02:14:13.000 Interesting.

02:14:14.000 And so it's a food distribution thing?

02:14:16.000 I'm pretty sure.

02:14:17.000 How are they getting bad beef in Texas?

02:14:19.000 It's not bad beef, but it's just not the same.

02:14:21.000 It's not consistent.

02:14:22.000 It's not the exact same.

02:14:23.000 So the processing might not have the same.

02:14:25.000 Because the thing is, it's not great food.

02:14:27.000 You eat at McDonald's because you know what you're going to get.

02:14:29.000 Right.

02:14:30.000 It tastes just like it does every other time you've had it.

02:14:33.000 It's not because it's the best, but when it, so when you settle for McDonald's, right, and you, and you just, you know, it's like you have a standard.

02:14:40.000 Yeah, it's like calling your ex.

02:14:41.000 You know, it's like you settle for it and it's not as good.

02:14:45.000 You just like, no, it's like, it's got to taste like I'm expecting.

02:14:49.000 You know, but it's just, it's just off.

02:14:49.000 Got it.

02:14:52.000 Have you ever seen some people argue that restaurants are just who can cook the best Cisco food?

02:14:57.000 They're all getting it from the same kind of distributor.

02:14:59.000 Well, I think most of them are.

02:15:01.000 Really?

02:15:01.000 But that's really dwindling it down to the base of like, that's not really what everything's happening.

02:15:07.000 Yeah, like, I'm pretty sure if you see like Southwest egg rolls, like, it's probably a 50% chance that that came from a Cisco freezer.

02:15:14.000 You know, that Mexican place you turned me on to went under.

02:15:17.000 That was a bummer.

02:15:17.000 I know.

02:15:18.000 I can't believe that.

02:15:18.000 Bolivar, is that what it's called?

02:15:19.000 No, no, that's how it's called.

02:15:20.000 Bolivar's place is still over.

02:15:22.000 I don't even remember what it was called, man, but it was incredible.

02:15:24.000 It was so good.

02:15:25.000 Yeah.

02:15:26.000 Maybe they just moved.

02:15:27.000 Maybe I need to look them up because I forget the name of it.

02:15:29.000 I don't know, man.

02:15:30.000 I think they went under because they spent a lot of money on that place.

02:15:32.000 Remember the artwork in that place?

02:15:33.000 Yeah.

02:15:34.000 Well, the location was not because they weren't near any other restaurants.

02:15:38.000 It wasn't terrible, though.

02:15:39.000 It wasn't hard to find.

02:15:41.000 Yeah, but it's still off the path of like anywhere.

02:15:43.000 Like if you had to go over there, there was no other reason to go over there.

02:15:46.000 And she lived over there.

02:15:47.000 But you go over there for a restaurant.

02:15:48.000 Like, it seemed like they were packed when I was there.

02:15:50.000 That's what was confusing.

02:15:51.000 They were.

02:15:52.000 They were, but towards the end, it started being less and less.

02:15:57.000 That happens, man.

02:15:58.000 People get excited about a new place, and it's popping at first, and then it just sort of dies off.

02:16:03.000 Yeah.

02:16:04.000 But that's the first time I've seen a great restaurant go under that I like.

02:16:09.000 I know.

02:16:09.000 And quick.

02:16:11.000 Yeah.

02:16:11.000 It was probably a year.

02:16:12.000 Yeah.

02:16:13.000 It's a fucking tough business, man.

02:16:15.000 That's a tough business.

02:16:16.000 Yeah.

02:16:17.000 And that was started by a guy that knew what he was doing.

02:16:21.000 That's how tough it is.

02:16:22.000 Don't you know the guy?

02:16:22.000 Right.

02:16:25.000 No.

02:16:25.000 I met him.

02:16:26.000 Okay.

02:16:26.000 Yeah.

02:16:27.000 I met him there.

02:16:29.000 You know what I wish they would bring here is a bizarre meat.

02:16:31.000 Oh, yeah.

02:16:32.000 I mean, it's probably, he probably would go to like a bigger city than Austin, maybe.

02:16:37.000 Well, he's got one in Chicago.

02:16:38.000 He just opened up one in New York.

02:16:40.000 Yeah, we ate the one in Chicago.

02:16:40.000 Oh, really?

02:16:42.000 It was great.

02:16:43.000 Oh, of course.

02:16:43.000 And the new one in Vegas.

02:16:45.000 He's got a new one in Vegas.

02:16:46.000 It moved spots.

02:16:47.000 Okay, to a different casino?

02:16:48.000 Yeah, same deal, though.

02:16:50.000 Oh, sensational.

02:16:51.000 Sensational.

02:16:51.000 It's got to be.

02:16:52.000 Off the charts.

02:16:53.000 And they always look out.

02:16:53.000 Oh, bro.

02:16:55.000 Yeah, they're great.

02:16:56.000 Yeah.

02:16:57.000 And Jose Andres came on the podcast, the head chef.

02:16:59.000 Oh, word.

02:17:00.000 He was great.

02:17:01.000 Such a nice guy, man.

02:17:02.000 That guy genuine, like, you want to talk about real charity?

02:17:06.000 That guy genuinely goes to like war-torn regions, anywhere there's some sort of a natural disaster, and he brings trucks, and they start cooking, and they feed people for free.

02:17:17.000 They feed people that level of food, too.

02:17:19.000 Yes.

02:17:20.000 His food.

02:17:21.000 His food.

02:17:22.000 He loves helping people, like genuinely loves helping people and loves cooking for people.

02:17:28.000 And he went to Poland and was catching the Ukrainian refugees when they were leaving Ukraine.

02:17:34.000 These people were starving.

02:17:35.000 He set up shop, started feeding them.

02:17:38.000 That's how good a guy that is.

02:17:40.000 Yeah, and he's a master.

02:17:41.000 A master chef.

02:17:42.000 His restaurants are incredible.

02:17:43.000 He came in here.

02:17:44.000 He was making food for us while we're doing the podcast.

02:17:46.000 Wow, like he had a hot panel.

02:17:48.000 He had a piece of ham.

02:17:49.000 He's cutting off ham and shit.

02:17:51.000 Oh, he had like that fancy ass ham.

02:17:53.000 Yeah, this thin slice.

02:17:55.000 Remember that?

02:17:56.000 It comes with like a stand.

02:17:58.000 Yeah, man.

02:17:59.000 He gave me a whole leg.

02:18:00.000 I took it home with me.

02:18:01.000 Yeah, it'll last forever.

02:18:03.000 Yeah, it lasts forever.

02:18:04.000 It's cured.

02:18:05.000 Bro, it's so good.

02:18:05.000 Yeah.

02:18:06.000 It's so good.

02:18:07.000 Good food's going to be the downfall of me.

02:18:09.000 Yeah, but you could have both.

02:18:10.000 Yeah, you can have both.

02:18:11.000 You just got to, you got to have, like, you ever see The Rock's cheat meals?

02:18:15.000 Yeah.

02:18:16.000 On Sundays, The Rock will have these legendary cheat meals.

02:18:18.000 I don't know if he still does it, but he would post them on Instagram.

02:18:21.000 It's like a stack of pancakes, giant chocolate chip cookies.

02:18:24.000 No, but The Rock shrunk down now, like John said.

02:18:26.000 It did.

02:18:27.000 Yeah.

02:18:27.000 I think he got too big because he did that movie, the uh, the movie about Mark Kerr, the smashing machine.

02:18:34.000 Oh, by the way, it didn't get the love it deserves.

02:18:38.000 It's a really good movie.

02:18:40.000 It's not just an MMA movie, it's a very realistic MMA movie, too.

02:18:45.000 It's like really, he like The Rock is Mark Kerr.

02:18:48.000 They even gave him like a forehead thing, like a prosthesis, so he looked more like a Neanderthal like Mark Kerr does.

02:18:53.000 I thought he was gonna get a nomination for that.

02:18:55.000 He gained 30 pounds of muscle, wore 22 prosthetics, and trained in MA Camp to physically transform for his role as Mark Kerr.

02:19:02.000 Look what he looked like.

02:19:03.000 Scroll up so you can see what he looked like.

02:19:05.000 Look what he looked like there.

02:19:06.000 That's Mark.

02:19:07.000 That's the actual Mark, and that's The Rock next to him.

02:19:09.000 But that's The Rock, obviously, playing Mark when he was younger.

02:19:12.000 Oh, is Mark Kerr still alive?

02:19:13.000 Yeah, yeah, he did my podcast recently.

02:19:15.000 Oh, yeah, man, that smashing machine documentary is crazy.

02:19:20.000 I thought The Rock was going to get a nominated for that.

02:19:22.000 He should have.

02:19:24.000 He did a fantastic job, but nobody watched it.

02:19:26.000 It's one of those just slipped under it.

02:19:28.000 If it comes out to streaming, I can't recommend it enough.

02:19:30.000 It's a really good movie, and it's not just an MMA movie.

02:19:35.000 It's like there's moments in that movie where you get anxiety.

02:19:37.000 Like, oh my God, don't do that.

02:19:38.000 Jesus Christ, what are you doing?

02:19:40.000 It's one of those movies.

02:19:41.000 It's crazy, but he does a phenomenal job.

02:19:44.000 Phenomenal.

02:19:44.000 He hasn't not been nominated yet.

02:19:46.000 They haven't come out yet.

02:19:47.000 Oh.

02:19:48.000 Oh, well, he should be for that.

02:19:50.000 I don't think he will get, you know, it's hard.

02:19:52.000 The Academy and a martial arts movie.

02:19:54.000 And it's like, you know, it's for meatheads.

02:19:57.000 Jamie, I'm surprised you ain't got no sponsorships with a search app.

02:20:00.000 What do you mean?

02:20:02.000 What do you mean?

02:20:02.000 You're literally known for looking shit up.
