00:02:26.480 and she's doing some sort of british tour maybe she's retiring from the public eye after that

00:02:36.160 surge pricing for bills water cheek water cheek surge pricing i when they've decided

00:02:42.600 there's some sort of drought they'll just charge you more okay

00:03:34.980 He's not wrong on this.

00:03:35.940 It's a bit of a Mickey take.

00:03:51.700 Really bored

00:03:52.560 Like before

00:03:53.660 Like probably mainly before the internet

00:03:55.760 In the 90s or something

00:03:56.780 Or before the internet was good anyway

00:03:58.720 Like one Saturday we're just bored out of our minds

00:04:01.160 Should we go to like West London

00:04:03.640 To that 0.98

00:04:05.020 That zebra crossing is still there to this day 1.00

00:04:08.420 Get someone else to stand in the road

00:04:09.880 And take a picture of us

00:04:10.720 On the random day we did that

00:04:14.120 There were other people doing that

00:04:15.040 I think people do that all the time

00:04:16.660 I think people do that all the time

00:04:19.020 It's a cliche isn't it

00:04:21.200 Anyway

00:04:31.620 The Daily Star

00:04:32.400 What sloppy joes are they serving up

00:05:32.520 companies, their drips, their big drips to surge price. Maybe a lot of money should be

00:05:42.820 spent on our reservoir and the infrastructure piping and things so that we don't lose billions

00:10:01.400 Nothing profound has changed

00:10:05.220 Something's already been the case for a while now

00:10:08.340 For some reason the Telegraph has decided just to

00:10:10.920 Dial up the concern, the worry, the alarmism

00:10:14.320 It's just

00:10:14.840 Didn't Ukraine over the weekend

00:10:49.020 A fair few people died

00:10:49.780 But, okay, here they're saying

00:10:55.160 That we need to worry about Russia's drones

00:12:38.600 By decades and decades of just like

00:12:41.380 Sawyer politics

00:13:17.560 Texts were sent out to nearly everyone

00:13:20.280 Wasn't they saying

00:13:20.960 There's wildfires, it might not be anywhere near you

00:13:23.620 There's wildfires, be aware of wildfires

00:13:26.040 Yeah

00:13:29.580 I don't really want government updates sent to my phone

00:13:33.580 Like against my will, to be perfectly honest

00:13:35.280 About basically anything

00:13:37.040 Maybe if there's like

00:13:40.620 Like old Cold War thing

00:13:43.860 Like a three minute warning

00:13:44.740 Or if it was

00:13:45.260 Four minute warning

00:13:45.820 I can't remember

00:13:46.260 Russian nukes are inbound

00:13:49.360 Duck and cover 1.00

00:13:50.580 Like that I wouldn't mind

00:13:55.320 If the government knew ahead of time

00:13:56.960 And could warn you

00:13:57.680 Give you even a moment's notice

00:13:59.220 But just

00:14:00.600 Some completely general purpose warning

00:14:04.900 About that wildfires

00:14:06.100 Exist in the world

00:14:08.160 What are you doing?

00:14:10.040 Leave me alone

00:14:11.820 Hundreds of cells empty in new prison

00:14:16.420 Isn't this the whole reason why they're releasing

00:14:24.320 Actual terrorists and murderers 0.74

00:14:27.220 And rapists and arsonists 0.63

00:14:28.560 Because they said there's no cells

00:14:31.040 Like at one point they were down to like

00:14:32.860 Half a dozen cells or something

00:14:33.920 Or a dozen cells

00:14:34.960 In the whole of the British prison estate

00:14:38.640 There's no cells left

00:14:39.720 That's why they're letting them out

00:14:40.680 Oh no

00:14:41.040 Our newest prison

00:14:43.620 A super prison

00:14:44.360 It's not that big

00:14:45.000 Our newest prison

00:14:46.620 That can hold like

00:14:47.460 1,500 people

00:14:48.680 It only holds

00:14:50.900 1,100

00:14:51.620 There's just a few hundred

00:14:54.660 Cells there

00:14:55.160 If nothing else 0.81

00:14:55.680 So how many murderers 0.96

00:14:57.500 And rapists and terrorists 0.96

00:14:58.420 Have you let out 0.89

00:14:58.920 That could just be there

00:14:59.800 The reason is

00:15:01.540 They say

00:15:02.040 That they just

00:15:03.940 Couldn't get the staff

00:15:05.440 Can't recruit the staff

00:15:09.340 There's not enough staff

00:15:10.220 Do you ever have that on the train?

00:15:14.800 Any of you out there use the train

00:15:16.060 And the trains are delayed or just cancelled

00:15:18.240 And the tannoy thing says

00:15:20.600 Because of a lack of a driver

00:15:23.220 There's no driver available

00:15:25.880 So this train service is just cancelled now

00:15:28.180 The next one will be ridiculously packed

00:15:30.340 Because of that

00:15:32.460 There's no drivers

00:15:33.340 Hmm

00:15:36.380 Again, it's just being mismanaged, isn't it?

00:15:42.020 Just being mismanaged

00:17:00.820 The right is as bad as Labour undercom

00:17:04.620 Isn't the Telegraph supposed to be right of centre?

00:17:08.920 Isn't it?

00:17:10.040 Wasn't it, usually?

00:17:11.560 Historically?

00:17:13.380 Not anymore?

00:17:14.360 Not anymore.

00:17:54.540 oh well the daily mail the mail group pure slop wearing the skin suit of being 0.81

00:18:01.180 Nativeist or patriotic in some cases 0.98

00:18:02.960 No they're not 1.00

00:18:03.620 There's that woman

00:18:05.800 Amy, Amy's fourth medal 0.99

00:18:18.060 Pedophile fireman used loophole

00:18:20.340 To keep changing his identity

00:18:21.740 Caused to change law

00:18:24.320 As Daily Mail exposed a shocking case

00:18:25.940 Of pervert with 20 aliases

00:18:28.300 It's the story of some dude that was a firefighter 0.95

00:18:30.520 among other jobs and uh he's a sex criminal on a number of levels and how he's not just in prison

00:18:39.060 for a very very long time i don't know but every time he'd get caught how often do you need to get

00:18:44.620 caught and be released for being a sex criminal anyway every time he'd get caught and then let

00:18:50.200 out and he's on some sort of register or whatever he would just change his name legally change his

00:18:56.540 name problem solved as far as he's concerned I suppose and he's done it loads of times they

00:19:02.200 get 20 alices he just moved somewhere else changed his name legally

00:19:07.560 anyway seems kind of obvious doesn't it if you sort of insisted you wanted to go back under

00:19:17.300 the radar

00:19:19.780 why apparently minsters are under pressure to change that loophole so

00:19:26.960 people like that can't do that yeah good yeah it definitely do that yeah that

00:19:32.560 would be better all right the guardian oh what is that stank that revolting oh 0.97

00:19:39.740 Oh, it smells like, oh, it smells like rotting meat. 0.96

00:19:45.940 It smells like, it smells like something died.

00:19:49.300 It's been dead for quite a while.

00:19:52.300 Putrid.

00:19:54.020 It's putrid, it's stinging my nostrils.

00:19:55.820 What is that?

00:19:56.480 Oh, it's The Guardian, that's what that is.

00:20:00.540 Heidi Hire, something about Sue Pollard.

00:20:02.760 Harry, do you know who Sue Pollard is, or Heidi Hire?

00:20:06.720 I don't, no.

00:20:07.660 No, no, nor should you

00:20:09.540 Because it's from a long, long time ago

00:20:11.020 Again, the people that run these papers 0.98

00:20:12.520 They're all boomers, aren't they? 1.00

00:20:13.800 No disrespect, go base boomers 1.00

00:20:15.720 If you find yourself a base boomer 1.00

00:20:17.140 They're usually dialed up to 11 0.99

00:20:18.180 So, hashtag not all boomers 0.94

00:20:20.240 Nonetheless

00:20:21.340 Sue Pollard 0.99

00:20:23.180 If you're foreign 1.00

00:20:25.200 You might not know 1.00

00:20:26.300 There was a show, a TV show

00:20:27.700 Called Heidi High

00:20:28.600 On in like the 80s, the 1980s 1.00

00:20:32.120 Sue Pollard was in it as a younger woman 0.86

00:20:35.020 It was like

00:20:37.700 It's like

00:20:38.620 That sort of 70s sitcom

00:20:40.260 Where it's like

00:20:40.760 Barely funny

00:20:41.620 I mean it's alright

00:20:43.640 You can watch it

00:20:44.260 But it's like

00:20:44.740 Anyway

00:20:45.380 Long time ago now

00:20:46.880 Long time ago

00:20:48.400 They've dragged 0.98

00:20:50.600 Sue Pollard up 1.00

00:20:51.420 From nowhere

00:20:52.000 Ugh

00:20:53.060 Move on

00:20:53.840 Why have I even spent

00:20:54.820 More than one second

00:20:55.580 To talk about Heidi High

00:20:56.440 And Sue Pollard

00:20:57.080 Alright

00:20:58.020 I might say

00:21:00.760 Heidi High campers

00:21:01.680 Every morning

00:21:02.140 Start doing that

00:21:02.800 That was one of the

00:21:03.300 Catchphrases from it

00:21:05.020 Right

00:21:07.780 Boost special needs internship to tackle youth jobs

00:21:11.000 Says Milburn, Alan Milburn

00:21:12.380 Is that the biggest worry, is it?

00:21:14.640 That's top of the docket, is it?

00:21:17.100 Jobs for special needs young people 1.00

00:21:19.840 Not the vastly bigger number of non-special needs young people that need jobs 0.99

00:21:25.200 Classic, isn't it? 1.00

00:21:27.100 Turbo charge scheme to help young people into work

00:21:30.300 Says top advisor

00:21:31.440 Alan Milburn

00:21:33.300 I mean, it's not why I particularly want to disadvantage special needs young people 1.00

00:21:39.560 But why turbo charge that?

00:21:42.600 Don't you want to help the most number of people first?

00:21:46.660 It's virtue signaling, isn't it?

00:21:48.260 It's virtue signaling, again, still 0.57

00:21:49.780 There's that athlete woman who won some medals 0.99

00:21:54.080 Alright

00:21:54.420 Kiev sends huge waves of drones into Russia

00:21:57.500 There you go

00:21:58.400 Wasn't one of the other papers saying that

00:22:00.620 Russian drones are like

00:22:02.200 On the Telegraph, on the verge of attack 0.84

00:22:04.880 They've got giant Russian drone bases

00:22:06.780 Right on the border with Ukraine

00:22:08.180 And it's a worry

00:22:08.900 But here Kiev

00:22:10.560 Got a giant wave of drones into Russia

00:22:12.580 It's like

00:22:12.940 Royals face £10 million bill to insulate rentals

00:22:22.760 Because

00:22:23.480 What is it, the Duchy of Lancaster

00:22:25.860 The King

00:22:27.140 And Wills

00:22:28.660 Prince of Wales

00:22:30.380 William, Saxe, Coburg, Gotha

00:22:32.540 They've both got giant holdings and estates in their own right, haven't they?

00:22:38.680 Isn't Will's worth over a billion?

00:22:40.720 And the king is worth hundreds and hundreds of millions

00:22:42.400 They own loads of other properties

00:22:44.580 Loads

00:22:45.320 All over the place

00:22:46.900 And they're like whole streets that the king owns

00:22:50.380 Somewhere or other

00:22:51.800 Anyway

00:22:52.800 They're largely rented out for money

00:22:55.380 The crown, the household needs money, yo

00:22:59.580 like the state handouts aren't enough for them like if they ever need anything renovated on

00:23:07.620 Buckingham Palace or Sandringham the state pays for it anyway

00:23:10.340 like they haven't got a giant collection private collections of

00:23:14.840 gems and jewels and fine art no they need more

00:23:18.260 Saxe-Coburg needs more never enough well the law is

00:23:24.780 They have to insulate their properties

00:23:28.020 It might cost them 10 million

00:23:29.740 Drop in the ocean

00:23:30.380 Again, isn't Wills worth over a billion

00:23:32.500 Or a billion and a half or something

00:23:33.800 A king worth 7 or 800 million

00:23:35.820 Something like that

00:23:36.520 So 10 million, they can stretch to that

00:23:38.640 They'll probably end up just charging it

00:23:41.660 To the public purse anyway

00:23:43.340 The Independent

00:23:44.920 Look at the state of this alarmism

00:23:47.280 Our burning world

00:23:49.120 The world is on fire

00:23:51.260 Our burning world

00:23:53.380 Calm down

00:23:54.160 Calm down

00:23:55.360 And look, a load of stats

00:23:57.460 £16.3 billion estimated cost of damage in Europe

00:24:01.780 Yeah, how many of those fires are set by humans deliberately though?

00:24:05.120 9 out of 10 according to French authorities

00:24:07.060 Our burning well dot dot dot

00:24:12.780 Due to arson

00:24:13.740 Maybe, yeah

00:24:15.280 900 foot football pitches

00:24:18.360 Size of single fire in Peak District

00:24:20.600 Is that much?

00:24:24.160 Is it normal that there will be wildfires in a hot dry summer?

00:24:28.740 Sounds a lot, but...

00:24:31.680 8,744 buildings destroyed in largest single blaze in Portugal.

00:24:36.560 Again, have to ask, do we know if it's arson or not?

00:24:42.620 370 million acres consumed by fire this year,

00:24:45.580 a land mass larger than France, Spain and Germany combined.

00:24:48.320 That's across the whole world they're talking about there.

00:24:50.020 So again, is that much?

00:24:52.240 Because later they talk about Africa, most affected.

00:24:54.160 So they talk about the whole world there 0.96

00:24:55.760 Is that usual?

00:24:58.280 Like they say

00:24:58.680 Tens and tens of thousands of people have died of flu

00:25:01.820 This year

00:25:02.760 And or COVID

00:25:03.960 Tens of thousands of people have died of it

00:25:05.980 Yeah, is that normal though?

00:25:07.080 That sounds really bad

00:25:08.160 Like it's a massive number

00:25:08.960 But isn't that just normal?

00:25:10.620 Wouldn't that happen every single year

00:25:12.340 As a matter of course?

00:25:13.420 There's no way to stop it

00:25:14.560 Ask the same question here

00:25:17.800 370 million acres

00:25:19.160 Yeah, is that

00:25:19.740 Is that normal?

00:25:22.420 You can make out that

00:25:23.540 It's the size of France, Spain and Germany combined.

00:25:26.280 Yes, so.

00:25:30.100 Tell me if it's truly abnormal or not.

00:25:32.720 No, you don't want to do that.

00:25:33.500 This whole thing is spin.

00:25:34.760 This whole thing is alarmist spin.

00:25:38.940 46% of global blazes are in worst-hit Africa.

00:25:44.400 Won't anyone think of the African wildfires? 0.99

00:25:46.820 1.5 million annual deaths linked to wild wildfire smoking creation inhalation i don't question that

00:25:56.040 sounds like i think i said i swear with it sounds like nonsense to me don't question that

00:26:02.260 yeah 1.5 million deaths doubt it i doubt that

00:26:10.620 okay 80 countries with major wildfires hmm interesting then there's loads that aren't

00:26:16.380 there's over 200 countries in the world quite a few where there aren't

00:26:21.420 what does that mean anyway any country where there's like a large amount of really really

00:26:26.860 dry wood or tinder or grassland whatever like it's terrible 80 countries usually it's three now it's

00:26:33.660 80. no probably always the case that 1017 fires in the uk it sounds a lot and it's obviously up

00:26:42.940 It's obviously up. It never used to be that high. How many of them are arson? I've got to keep asking that though

00:26:51.280 45-degree blistering temperatures in Europe. Yeah, pretty normal

00:26:54.820 Yeah, really hot places in Europe like southern Spain or Malta or whatever

00:26:59.800 Sicily or something the really hot bit Greece really hot bits 45 degrees

00:27:06.640 Just

00:27:08.640 The people that put this together and the senior people that signed off on it, what are you thinking?

00:27:14.840 What are you thinking?

00:27:17.980 Can you imagine one of the senior editors, someone else, the researchers or the writers or whatever coming to them,

00:27:22.340 look we've got all these stats, they're like yeah do that one, yeah yeah do that one,

00:27:26.620 yeah look 46% of global blazes in worst-hit Africa, yeah put that on there, put that on the front page. 0.62

00:27:32.900 Is it the independent's job

00:27:39.300 Is it really their job 1.00

00:27:42.200 To do this

00:27:43.900 Is that what their remit is

00:27:46.520 Is that what their role as a media organ is

00:27:48.940 To just be alarmist

00:27:52.220 About something

00:27:53.840 Just completely spin reality

00:27:56.660 Completely and utterly spin

00:28:00.440 What is or isn't real

00:28:02.140 I'm saying these facts aren't true

00:28:05.040 I'm saying spinning it

00:28:06.400 Spinning it for a certain

00:28:08.700 Or to a certain narrative

00:28:10.900 Is that their job? Is that the independence job?

00:28:12.740 Is it?

00:28:13.860 Is now apparently

00:28:14.700 The express

00:28:16.800 It's a good paper

00:28:18.200 You can read your express now 0.97

00:28:21.460 If you're a twat 0.88

00:28:25.520 Man arrested on suspicion of murder 0.97

00:28:30.040 Over dog bite death

00:28:31.320 mildly interesting story even though it's just one horrible killing apparently on a on a remote

00:28:37.880 pathway there were two men one of them had an alsatian dog and one way or another the dog bit

00:28:44.600 one of the other men a 55 year old victim bit him and he's tired of it i don't know whether

00:28:50.680 it got his jugular or something but they're saying it's not just like an accidental random dog attack

00:28:54.920 It was a murder, like the guy deliberately murdered the other guy via a dog, murder by a dog sort of thing.

00:29:08.280 I think it only happened at the weekend, there's not much detail about it at the moment but

00:29:12.840 that would be interesting wouldn't it, that would be a turn up for the books.

00:29:17.080 One for Lieutenant Columbo. Oh my dog accidentally bit a man, did he though?

00:29:22.920 or was it very very deliberate

00:29:25.080 it's actually a Columbo episode

00:29:27.640 where a guy's got two Doberman

00:29:29.540 isn't it

00:29:30.320 murder someone via Doberman

00:29:33.060 what I like Columbo

00:29:36.520 what

00:29:36.900 tests and treatments that are unimaginable

00:29:41.000 a decade ago now within reach

00:29:42.880 we're entering a golden age for dementia

00:29:45.240 research good oh that's good news

00:29:46.680 good news

00:29:47.500 there's no one in my family who's got dementia

00:29:51.120 I've not had any exact

00:29:52.240 uh any real direct dealings with that but from everything i know it's a terrible thing isn't it

00:29:57.760 dementia terrible terrible thing for the person themselves of course and the family have to deal

00:30:02.320 with it so any and all advances on that front it's just 100 welcome right no sarcasm no shade

00:30:08.880 thrown by me here of course not yeah good excellent there's the athletes again team uk

00:30:52.600 New housing developments near train stations are set to be fast-tracked in a major expansion of commuter villages and towns.

00:31:02.020 Communities with at least four services per hour into a major urban area are being targeted for urgent development, the IPA understands.

00:31:10.420 Councils will have to approve proposals

00:31:13.200 Yeah, will have to approve proposals

00:31:15.480 Even if they are on Greenbelt land

00:31:17.680 Yeah

00:31:17.980 Or something of natural beauty

00:31:20.460 Don't care

00:35:18.060 owner owner in inverted commas owner of german shepherd arrested after 55 year old man dies

00:35:25.560 okay all right well that's it that's increasingly absurd and infuriating absurd sometimes i make

00:35:32.560 it sound like i'm saying absurd i know it's absurd and infuriating front pages in the british print

00:35:38.040 media on fleet street there you go all right should we have a look at our poll we usually

00:35:42.100 have a look at our poll about this time of the show what have we got to say i actually don't

00:35:46.920 know what it is i genuinely don't know what it is most mornings nearly every morning i say to harry

00:35:51.480 make the poll this or that if you know again harry has an idea when we go with that today i said to

00:35:57.680 him what i want you to do today come up with a poll that's just like a zoomer coded that like

00:36:05.180 only really zoomers would understand or get and i'll riff off of that maybe maybe maybe not a

00:36:12.280 small amount of comedy might ensue i don't know so i really don't know what it's gonna be i'm

00:36:15.880 look deliberately not looking down right now and when i read it out it will be news to me

00:36:19.960 we'll see what he's gone with do you see what he's gone with all right what have we got here

00:36:23.080 we asked you guys who is the most brain dead content creator oh

00:36:27.300 yeah yeah and then it's a bunch of people i've never heard of well actually one of them i have

00:36:33.800 mr beast all right harry gave you the options of how do you even pronounce that first one harry

00:36:38.760 Keso, never heard of Keso

00:36:42.700 I don't know Keso

00:36:44.340 I've heard of I Show Speed, I've never watched any of his stuff

00:36:48.280 Other than perhaps an odd thing on Twitter that comes across my timeline

00:36:51.020 But I know who he is

00:36:52.360 Kaya Senat

00:36:54.880 Never heard of him

00:36:57.000 Never ever heard of him

00:36:59.140 Has he got millions of followers?

00:37:01.740 Is he like a Snapchat, Insta type dude?

00:37:04.920 And Mr Beast, I heard of Mr Beast, I know Mr Beast

00:37:07.000 I watched a little bit of Mr Beast

00:37:08.260 all right before i ask harry who these people are um the results

00:37:11.860 and again the question was who is the most brain dank brain dead content creator mr beast wins

00:37:19.060 with 40 percent i show speed 31 percent kaya senat 21 and i guess winning it in a sense right 0.97

00:37:30.760 Is the least brain dead

00:37:32.300 With 7% 0.98

00:37:35.560 Is that

00:37:36.400 Queso

00:37:38.500 Queso

00:37:39.220 Queso

00:37:40.460 Alright

00:37:40.860 Who is Queso then

00:37:42.280 Who is that

00:37:42.920 Tell me a quick little bit

00:37:44.440 What he does

00:37:45.320 I'm imagining he's like

00:37:50.700 One of those island boys

00:37:51.900 I don't know why I've got that in my mind

00:37:52.980 He's like an island boy

00:37:53.960 With like 1.00

00:37:54.360 White guy 1.00

00:37:56.580 With loads and loads of tattoos

00:37:57.620 And dreadlocks

00:37:58.320 Like face tattoos and stuff

00:37:59.840 I don't know why I'm thinking that

00:38:00.740 oh no he's not that

00:38:01.760 he's a neckbeard dude

00:38:04.240 okay

00:38:07.400 and what does he actually do

00:38:09.700 does he rant about stuff

00:38:11.240 yeah I think he just plays games

00:38:12.940 he just plays games

00:38:15.340 yeah

00:38:16.040 I've always thought that's kind of weak

00:38:20.580 when people their whole online thing is

00:38:23.420 they play a game

00:38:24.960 they don't say anything of any value

00:38:27.280 they just play a game

00:38:28.520 and you watch them play a game

00:38:30.140 i've always thought that's super lame and weak i watched a bit of uh in the past i've watched a

00:38:37.080 fair bit of um oh uh oh who's the guy that wears the wraparound the wraparound ray-bans and like

00:38:45.400 a blue i'm sorry a red oh it's respect yeah dr disrespect yeah over the years i've watched a

00:38:52.160 fair few hours maybe as much as four or five hours in total over years of dr disrespect

00:38:56.320 at least he's a character right at least he says funny things and he's of interest in and of himself

00:39:02.500 oh actually i don't know i've never watched one moment of case so he might be

00:39:08.040 is he good is he worth watching uh you know he's like a he just plays games he's not really it's

00:39:14.480 not like a nothing sort of brain dead content creator but it's like does he say things that

00:39:21.440 funny and or interesting i think he blew up because he's sort of he did but he didn't really

00:39:29.240 realize that what he's saying is funny like people were more laughing at him oh god all right pass

00:39:35.840 i show speed i know a bit about i show speed he's pretty brain dead isn't he he seems to me 0.93

00:39:40.300 maybe clinically retarded one of those people it's obviously very very very low iq i show speed 0.98

00:39:48.140 and i've never heard him say anything interesting or particularly funny ever even though i've 0.90

00:39:52.520 probably only watched half an hour or an hour worth of i show speed clips again over the years

00:39:57.920 never seen him say anything good kaya senat never heard of this person get a picture of him up

00:40:04.660 what's his deal

00:40:05.980 what what's he do oh okay okay in fact don't answer don't care mr beast now mr beast yeah

00:40:24.360 he's done one or two good things i've seen him say mildly interesting things from time to time

00:40:29.300 again not that i've watched much of his content again probably about an hour or two maybe in

00:40:33.680 total over years of mr beast seems like an all right dude from what i gather right i mean yeah

00:40:41.800 you watch him do you watch mr beast no so i mean i kind of he's he's done some really horrendous

00:40:48.520 things with the youtube algorithm like he's oh i didn't know that he's sort of like uh

00:40:54.460 made gen alpha really really brain dead so oh oh i didn't know that maybe i've got the wrong end

00:41:01.420 the stick on mr beast again i've only ever seen a few clips i thought he did like some okay things

00:41:06.260 like go and help out philanthropy yeah yeah so he started off doing like a lot of that sort of stuff

00:41:11.560 and he still does give away quite a bit of money but um he sort of just hyper edits all of his stuff

00:41:16.380 and okay it's like a bunch of it's it's like bordering on hollywood level stuff so it's sort

00:41:21.980 of oh okay yeah it's sort of weird okay just having a quick look at our chat people don't

00:41:29.280 seem impressed by Mr Beast maybe I got the wrong end of the stick I haven't watched much of him so

00:41:32.540 okay all right interesting it's a slightly different poll today slightly different type of

00:41:38.080 poll um all right there you go a couple of new things I'd never heard of Peso and Kaya Senat

00:41:45.900 I'm not going to spend a moment looking at anything they've ever created not interested

00:41:53.520 Okay, should we have a quick look, a quick check-in on the price of crude?

00:42:00.080 What's going on?

00:42:01.000 All right, West Texas, just shy of $81 a barrel.

00:42:04.640 Brent, just over $88 a barrel.

00:42:07.800 Remarkable, really, isn't it?

00:42:10.280 Everything that's gone on in the Persian Gulf, that's still the case.

00:42:16.080 Really, really remarkable.

00:42:17.420 Of course, it doesn't really translate to what we pay at the petrol pump for gasoline.

00:42:21.380 Petrol, diesel, is it?

00:42:23.520 Still remarkable

00:42:25.040 I mean I saw over the weekend

00:42:27.600 Trump might have said it on Thursday or Friday

00:42:29.240 But I saw it over the weekend

00:42:30.200 That Trump did a speech somewhere and he said

00:42:32.000 He's going to turn the Straits of Hormuz into a US territory effectively

00:42:36.580 Whether he really will or not is something else

00:42:40.460 But he said it

00:42:41.220 Would have thought stuff like that

00:42:43.620 Just stuff like that might have spiked the price a bit

00:42:47.220 No?

00:42:49.080 I feel like a lot of the institutional investors

00:42:51.520 The big trading desks

00:42:52.780 They've factored in now that the Straits of Hormuz

00:42:56.140 Is sort of a more or less one way or another

00:42:58.900 Semi cut off choke point 0.99

00:43:01.560 And they've sort of factored that into their equations

00:43:03.920 Their calculations

00:43:05.800 The countries that really really relied on like

00:43:12.280 Natural gas out of Qatar and stuff

00:43:15.300 Some of the countries that really really relied on crude

00:43:20.140 Iranian crude

00:43:21.260 Kuwaiti crude

00:43:22.900 Bahraini crude

00:43:25.780 They've made other arrangements now

00:43:28.920 You don't hear about it much in the news do you

00:43:32.520 Like South Korea or Indonesia

00:43:34.280 They've got like a two day week

00:43:36.140 Because all their factories are on hold

00:43:37.580 Because they can't get crude

00:43:38.820 You don't hear about that do you

00:43:39.940 Interesting I wonder if it's the case

00:43:43.360 Someone's done a sort of deep dive on it

00:43:45.760 Sends me a video

00:43:47.580 Be interested to know

00:43:48.420 Okay

00:43:49.440 What else have we got

00:43:51.220 What other stories have we got

00:43:52.100 What time is it

00:43:53.080 Oh it's already quarter to nine

00:43:53.820 We'll do a quick look

00:43:54.580 At some of the other stories

00:43:55.340 On the main websites

00:43:56.440 See what we got

00:43:57.360 See what we got

00:43:58.220 Oh yeah this is mildly interesting to me

00:43:59.760 Trump says

00:44:00.560 US to reduce military drills

00:44:02.740 With South Korea

00:47:23.120 Plagiarised massive chunks of his PhD

00:47:25.180 And on and on and on

00:47:51.800 And when he was outed and shown

00:47:55.520 His narcissistic second life was shown to be nonsense 0.93

00:47:59.460 He topped himself 0.96

00:48:00.520 Somehow

00:48:03.940 Many people are trying to argue that

00:48:09.000 The main problem in all of that

00:48:12.120 The main problem

00:48:13.520 The ones to blame

00:48:15.100 If there's any blame to be apportioned

00:48:16.780 Outside of Arday himself

00:48:18.000 Is the people that exposed his liars

00:48:21.220 No, no, no

00:48:23.060 Nope 0.76

00:48:24.600 The people that exposed his liars

00:48:26.480 Did nothing wrong

00:48:27.260 He put himself in that situation

00:48:29.300 He decided to lie loads

00:48:31.100 Loads

00:48:32.060 Spectacularly 0.97

00:48:34.500 And then he decided to kill himself

00:48:37.440 Some blame should be apportioned to the Cambridge people

00:48:41.200 That put him on a pedestal

00:48:42.200 Almost setting him up for failure, really

00:48:44.380 Treating him as some sort of DEI pet 0.97

00:48:46.920 Oh look, we found a black man 1.00

00:48:49.940 That we can promote way above his abilities 1.00

00:48:52.320 Don't worry about if he's Walter Mitty or not

00:48:54.720 Yes, look, here's our pet 0.81

00:48:56.320 Here's our token black man

00:48:57.700 Who's a professor now at Cambridge

00:48:58.940 Isn't he a good boy

00:48:59.820 Like a little toy

00:49:00.740 Treating him like a little toy

00:49:02.220 Thing

00:49:03.060 Well now he's dead 0.71

00:49:05.440 Well done

00:49:05.820 Well done

00:49:07.120 The people that spoke

00:49:10.520 Particularly the guy

00:49:11.220 I can't remember his name

00:49:11.800 The guy that first exposed his plagiarism

00:49:14.120 He's done nothing wrong

00:49:15.500 Nothing wrong

00:49:17.560 Get this

00:49:19.380 Eritrean man

00:49:20.740 33

00:49:21.700 Dragged Pensioner along fence

00:49:24.260 And behind church 0.99

00:49:25.300 Then raped him 1.00

00:49:26.880 Right 0.99

00:49:28.960 I mean

00:49:31.240 What

00:49:32.080 What are we doing

00:49:34.920 How is this 1.00

00:49:36.780 I don't really want any Eritreans in my country 1.00

00:49:42.840 Or Sudanese or Somalis 1.00

00:49:46.620 What kind of monster is that 1.00

00:49:50.540 A pensioner, an old man 1.00

00:49:52.640 He dragged an old man into a churchyard and raped him 0.99

00:49:56.440 What? What? 1.00

00:50:00.480 That's just a tiny little story, just get memory hold after today.

00:50:03.220 In a few hours, that'll be memory hold. No one will remember.

00:50:05.820 No one will, nobody will talk about that.

00:50:10.140 What?

00:50:12.840 An unspeakable...

00:50:16.560 Oh, sickening, isn't it?

00:50:19.600 Isn't it just sickening? 0.97

00:50:26.440 Ann Wilson's got an opinion piece.

00:50:29.380 I've got to say I do agree with it.

00:50:30.960 She says, Banksy, a.k.a. Robin Gunningham.

00:50:34.040 See, we sort of know who he is, basically.

00:50:37.100 Robin. I say Robert. Sorry.

00:50:38.920 Robin Gunningham. 1.00

00:50:42.560 Yeah, some sort of libtard Bristol dude. 1.00

00:50:47.780 Is a privately educated lefty stooge. 0.99

00:50:50.520 This is Ann Wilson's words, not mine.

00:50:53.260 Is a privately educated lefty stooge 1.00

00:50:55.340 Whose ugly worthless art is hastening the collapse of the West 0.98

00:50:59.540 Yeah, sounds about right, yeah 0.89

00:51:00.700 Sounds about right

00:51:02.280 Sorry, not Anne Wilson, sorry, it's A.N. Wilson, sorry

00:51:04.660 A.N. Wilson

00:51:06.260 Not Anne Wilson, A.N. Wilson

00:51:08.880 Yeah, sounds about right

00:51:12.940 Sounds about right

00:51:14.460 Yeah, I disagree

00:51:17.220 Alright, what else have we got?

00:51:21.340 Oh, quick word about Tupac, Tupac Shakur

00:51:23.920 I

00:51:25.900 Perhaps oddly

00:51:30.660 You might think where my wheelhouse is history

00:51:32.720 Particularly ancient history

00:51:33.860 That's my thing first and foremost

00:51:35.840 That's what my undergrad was in

00:51:37.260 That's what I've spent most of my life

00:51:38.840 Adult life

00:51:40.300 Reading about

00:51:41.540 If I could say I'm an expert

00:51:43.760 Even just sort of an armchair level expert on anything

00:51:46.040 It's the ancient world

00:51:47.240 Ancient Mediterranean world

00:51:49.540 So perhaps you might not think

00:51:51.220 I'm fascinated

00:51:52.560 by the life and particularly the death of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls and that whole thing

00:51:59.220 because it sort of happened in the early 90s when I was young and I remember it

00:52:02.640 and later in my teenage years or in my 20s I went back to it like what actually happened there

00:52:08.880 I remember that what actually happened what are those events exactly you know with a bit of a

00:52:13.500 historian's hat on what really happened and whose account can you believe and not and all that sort

00:52:18.640 thing in fact i was i've been considering the whole time i've been at lotus eaters five years

00:52:23.200 more now i might do a sort of light-hearted inverted commas light-hearted epochs all about

00:52:29.680 the murders of biggie small and uh tupac shakur whether they're connected or not um

00:52:39.920 for some reason it's just one of those things right you know when you're a history fan history

00:52:43.360 nerd sometimes you're interested in some little corner of history that no one else is particularly

00:52:49.800 interested in or it's completely outside your usual field of interest for some reason i've

00:52:55.540 always been interested in the murder of tupac chakut because basically we know who did it right

00:53:01.280 we do know who did it really they were never convicted i mean they're dead now themselves 0.59

00:53:07.580 They were gangbangers

00:53:09.100 They were gangsters

00:53:10.880 They themselves were gunned down and killed

00:53:13.960 In like the 90s or whatever

00:53:16.300 We basically know he did it

00:53:19.580 But a guy's going on trial

00:53:22.780 Keefy D now is on trial

00:53:24.720 Apparently he was

00:53:25.900 Tupac was killed in a drive-by in Las Vegas

00:53:28.620 And one of the people that was in the car

00:53:31.520 Perhaps even supplied the guns

00:53:33.320 Didn't pull the trigger but was in the car

00:53:35.560 And was like the head of the gang

00:53:37.300 probably probably they did it i mean that's what he's on trial for now keefe d that guy

00:53:44.020 that guy um he's on trial for it now why only now interesting good question what i'll do i think

00:53:49.940 what i'll do is when there's the verdict on this trial i'll do five ten minutes on it

00:53:55.620 talking about it maybe more might get a quarter of an hour out of me on that

00:54:00.820 Like

00:54:03.440 Suge Knight is involved

00:54:05.500 He's in prison and he's serving a really long

00:54:08.160 Stretch

00:54:08.840 Suge Knight, that's an interesting

00:54:12.220 Story, life in and of itself

00:54:13.900 Anyway

00:54:14.580 There you go, when the Tupac trial

00:54:18.120 Of TPD is concluded

00:54:20.340 I'll talk about it in some detail

00:54:22.240 Tupac Shakur himself incidentally

00:54:26.440 Was

00:54:26.880 A repeat criminal including sex crime 1.00

00:54:30.480 he couldn't stop himself committing crimes he was a douchebag okay all right let's just move on to 0.96

00:54:40.480 on this day in history let's do that because it's already it's already 5-2 all right you guys seem 0.89

00:54:47.400 to like me doing this segment i like doing this segment on this day in history down through the

00:54:50.800 centuries and a millennia what happened if no august the 17th what have we got okay on this day

00:54:55.200 In 1903, Joseph Pulitzer donates a million dollars

00:54:58.540 That's a lot of money in 1903

00:55:00.240 To Columbia University

00:55:01.600 And begins the Pulitzer Prizes in the United States

00:55:04.940 For journalism, basically

00:55:06.640 Like everything else these days

00:55:09.400 It's sort of woke-ified

00:55:10.380 Until 10, 15, 20 years ago

00:55:14.140 Very prestigious

00:55:15.680 For journalism, photojournalism

00:55:18.860 All sorts of things

00:55:19.620 The Pulitzer Prize

00:55:21.380 There you go

00:55:22.620 Like a lot of things

00:55:24.100 Like even an Oscar or something these days

00:55:26.000 It's like

00:55:26.360 Did you get it for just virtue signalling about globalism

00:55:30.500 And anti-whitism

00:55:31.980 Did you get one for that 0.86

00:55:33.620 Well done

00:55:34.720 Slow hand clap then

00:55:36.020 Slow sarcastic hand clap for you then

00:55:39.920 Got a Pulitzer these days

00:55:41.440 Alright

00:55:42.380 On this day 1945

00:55:43.440 Korea is divided into North and South Korea

00:55:45.600 Along the 38th parallel

00:55:47.840 Interesting is this

00:55:50.120 Directly after World War 2

00:55:52.220 Straight away basically 0.53

00:55:54.100 The Korean War doesn't kick off for a while

00:55:57.140 But 0.95

00:55:57.480 It happens right away, it's interesting to note 0.87

00:56:00.580 The Soviet sending

00:56:04.020 Kim Il-sung there

00:56:06.900 Apparently he couldn't really even speak Korean

00:56:10.540 He was a Korean person, like ethnically 1.00

00:56:12.800 Couldn't really even speak Korean 1.00

00:56:15.160 He was a Soviet creature 1.00

00:56:16.980 He spent so much time talking about 1.00

00:56:21.880 That

00:56:23.180 Kim Il-sung and the Korean War 1.00

00:56:25.120 I should actually

00:56:27.440 I will do an epochs about the Korean War at some point

00:56:29.920 I watched a lot of MASH in my time

00:56:33.040 Mobile Army Surgical Hospital

00:56:36.820 Not just watching a plate of Mashed Potato

00:56:38.640 The TV show MASH

00:56:40.580 Well I like Colombo and MASH

00:56:43.680 Don't judge me

00:56:44.540 Okay on this day in 1945

00:56:47.940 Sukarno

00:56:49.200 The first president of Indonesia

00:56:51.640 And Mohamed Hatter declare Indonesia

00:56:54.380 Formerly the Dutch East Indies

00:56:55.860 Independent from the Netherlands

00:56:57.720 Interesting to note 0.59

00:56:59.320 The Dutch didn't give them independence

00:57:01.740 Until like what 1948 or 49 or something

00:57:04.620 But they declared it right away

00:57:06.220 Again straight after World War 2 1.00

00:57:08.080 They've only just kicked the Japanese out 1.00

00:57:10.580 But they get independence from themselves 0.99

00:57:12.820 Don't they Indonesia later in the 1940s

00:57:15.000 Tsukano becomes their first president

00:57:17.500 He's president for a long long time right

00:57:20.140 Into the 60s isn't it

00:57:21.620 Anyway, alright

00:57:23.320 On this day in 1947

00:57:25.540 The Radcliffe line is revealed

00:57:28.800 Setting the border between Union of India and Dominion of Pakistan

00:57:32.960 Both East and West Pakistan

00:57:34.540 Because Bangladesh used to be called East Pakistan, didn't it?

00:57:37.860 The Radcliffe line, yeah, named after

00:57:39.380 Cyril Radcliffe, First Viscount Radcliffe

00:57:43.860 Partition, the story of partition

00:57:45.920 We're like, oh, you're really insisting that the British Raj come to an end

00:57:51.520 and you and you rule yourselves okay we'll be magnanimous about that okay we won't be like

00:57:56.200 empires of old and cling on and have a war and everything we'll we'll we'll back away slowly

00:58:01.160 like homer disappearing into the hedge okay if that's what you want okay fine all right then 0.74

00:58:05.120 we'll do that but you're not going to just massacre yourselves are you you're not just

00:58:08.480 going to start killing each other like wholesale along racial religious and ethnic lines are you

00:58:13.440 tribe and along tribal lines you're not just going to do that oh you are oh you are just doing that 0.97

00:58:17.320 Oh, oh, okay.

00:58:21.520 Okay.

00:58:24.920 Well, the revisionist history book's going to say we're responsible for that.

00:58:33.220 All right.

00:58:34.820 On this day in 1998, Monica Lewinsky, she was quite a pretty woman, wasn't she?

00:58:39.200 Monica Lewinsky in the 90s, early 90s, late 90s.

00:58:43.440 Monica Lewinsky, the Monica Lewinsky scandal.

00:58:45.840 US President Bill Clinton admits in taped testimony

00:58:52.260 That he had a, quote, improper physical relationship, quote

00:58:55.400 With the intern, and on the same day, admits before the nation

00:58:59.640 He misled people about the relationship

00:59:01.840 And the quote there, they've got there, there's websites up there

00:59:04.320 Famous quote by Bill Clinton, he said on TV

00:59:06.800 I did not have sexual relations with that woman 0.58

00:59:09.620 Well, you did though, didn't you?

00:59:13.320 Depends what you characterise as sexual relations

00:59:16.500 This is supposed to be kiddie friendly

00:59:18.520 This show so I can't go into any real detail

00:59:20.480 Or if I do I have to be very careful

00:59:22.580 With the words I use

00:59:23.620 How should we say it

00:59:25.800 There's full blown like fourth base isn't there

00:59:28.080 And Bill Clinton's

00:59:30.380 Definition of sexual relations is anything

00:59:32.200 Short of that doesn't count 0.93

00:59:34.120 It's not sexual relations unless it's the

00:59:36.180 Full blown fourth base

00:59:37.620 That thing yeah okay Bill

00:59:40.120 Yeah okay everyone else in the world

00:59:42.160 would say yeah you did all sorts of sexual relations with her in the Oval

00:59:47.680 Office sometimes including a cigar at some point 0.65

00:59:57.040 mmm gross and quite often what it comes down to though in cases of sexual

01:00:04.980 harassment or any sort of thing like like that quite often it will boil down

01:00:09.940 down to a he said she said situation there's no evidence it's just the man says he didn't do

01:00:16.120 anything the woman says he did and it's just up to everyone else to decide who they believe

01:00:21.520 and you've got a great deal of power and authority as president of the united states i mean

01:00:26.100 most people are likely to give you the benefit of the doubt especially when you're bill clinton

01:00:29.640 in the 90s most people really liked him because i thought of as a good president

01:00:34.600 there was evidence ah but there was physical evidence which had bill banged to rights

01:00:44.440 monica lewinsky had saved a dress a blue dress which had evidence on it it had dna evidence on it

01:00:56.480 so bill was banged to rights anyway moving on moving on because we can't really talk about

01:01:04.580 that on a kiddie frankly show you shouldn't really shouldn't even have said that much

01:01:08.160 really should i but um okay people who might not know like have you ever heard of the monica

01:01:11.320 lewinski uh scandal harry uh i have yeah oh you have oh you do know that one yeah do you know

01:03:42.000 tomonaga goroboye and kuroboye migaroo

01:03:51.660 die after hanging over a fetid pit for 50 hours for preaching i don't know anything about that

01:03:59.340 You've out history bro'd me there bro

01:04:02.040 Well done, kudos

01:04:03.560 I like it

01:04:04.560 I don't know about that in any detail

01:04:06.600 I know about Japan's sort of isolationism

01:04:09.900 And at least at first in like the early 17th century 0.96

01:04:14.240 Like you're not allowed

01:04:15.440 You can't just turn up, I mean into the 19th century 1.00

01:04:18.020 As a foreigner, unless you're allowed, specifically allowed 1.00

01:04:20.520 And I only allowed a tiny number 1.00

01:04:21.920 If you just turn up in Japan, no, that's death 1.00

01:04:23.900 You're not allowed to do that

01:04:26.220 They're a close country 1.00

01:04:27.000 Preaching a foreign religion

01:04:29.120 I guess 0.94

01:04:30.280 Because I know in global church history

01:04:31.960 It was Christian

01:04:32.600 I guess these two Japanese people were

01:04:35.180 I'm guessing they're Japanese

01:04:36.700 They sound very Japanese name

01:04:38.080 Is it Korean? 1.00

01:04:39.780 It must be Japanese

01:04:40.540 They sound very Japanese names

01:04:41.820 Anyway 1.00

01:04:42.560 Just turning up and starting preaching Christianity 1.00

01:04:46.020 That's not allowed 0.99

01:04:48.660 And they were executed by being hung over a fetid pit for 50 hours

01:04:54.040 Ooh

01:04:54.460 Ooh

01:04:56.040 That's a bad way to go isn't it?

01:04:57.980 wouldn't you have suspension trauma long before 50 hours anyway maybe they let him down briefly

01:05:03.960 to get the circulation going get your breath back that sounds like a horrible horrible death 0.94

01:05:09.340 all right pig dog 5150 the next two are him let's uh read what he says you put 0.53

01:05:19.080 three leaky pipes an acre of wheat uh might be hard to visualize for a professional for 0.63

01:05:27.740 for a professional league football pitch 20 000 to 23 000 liters in a single day

01:05:35.040 a drier week will require 150 000 plus liters for a day for a single day

01:05:42.780 I guess one litre

01:05:46.500 Isn't that much

01:05:47.300 In the scheme of things

01:05:47.920 Is it

01:05:48.200 But when you start

01:05:49.220 Talking about

01:05:49.600 Tens of thousands

01:05:50.480 Or hundreds of thousands

01:05:51.500 Of litres

01:05:51.980 Seems crazy to me

01:05:54.800 I'm not saying

01:05:55.780 You're wrong though

01:05:56.160 At all

01:05:56.380 I'm not saying at all

01:05:58.020 You're wrong

01:05:59.000 It just

01:05:59.460 Just sounds a lot to me

01:06:01.260 I'm the furthest thing

01:06:03.340 From a farmer though

01:06:04.280 Grew up in suburbia

01:06:07.340 Basically

01:06:14.120 Firms and banks 0.85

01:06:15.480 I'm not a country one

01:06:17.940 I'm not a farmer

01:06:18.480 I don't know anything about that stuff

01:06:20.720 Seems a lot though

01:06:23.800 Crazy amount

01:06:24.940 Okay and the other thing is

01:06:26.600 Pigdog again says

01:06:28.760 A bit behind on Lotus Eaters Daily

01:06:31.680 Catching up yesterday

01:06:32.600 Episode 1481

01:06:34.200 The Stelios jokingly saying of Jason Arday

01:07:05.860 I even see Julia Fartley-Pua

01:07:09.880 I see her make like a bad taste comment about it

01:07:13.580 I saw loads of people on Twitter say

01:07:16.480 He probably plagiarised his own suicide note or something

01:07:19.580 ChatGBT'd his own suicide note or something, I don't know

01:07:22.960 I wasn't interested in the story from start to finish

01:07:27.000 Don't care, really don't

01:07:29.300 What about that little nine year old white boy

01:07:32.460 That was bullied into suicide for racism

01:07:58.920 gonna go on to read this is a joke something about eamon holmes he's offered them an independence

01:08:03.180 I haven't heard that

01:08:05.480 I'm sure he meant via Romare

01:08:08.480 But maybe we have a shot at making ourselves

01:08:10.900 A libertarian dream

01:08:12.160 Unlikely I know but

01:08:13.620 Oh that's it but

01:08:16.380 Okay

01:08:17.340 Because I'm Cornish basically

01:08:20.480 Born and raised in the south east of England

01:08:22.740 But on my DNA

01:08:23.740 Like 90

01:08:25.260 Roughly 90% British 0.99

01:08:27.840 And a little bit of other north western European 0.83

01:08:29.900 But of the Britishness

01:08:31.520 i was like 60 or more cornish

01:08:35.080 so if i'm one thing the most it's a cornish who knew i've only been there once on holiday

01:08:43.680 went to perinporth in 1999 for the uh clips lovely love cornwall so now i'm a cornishman

01:08:51.100 i know they take the they take their independence thing really serious or some of them do anyway

01:08:56.320 super serial i mean really really serious of more than you might think serious

01:09:01.080 Courtney and Barbara are you Cornish

01:09:04.280 Because you say we

01:09:05.220 Maybe we have a shot of making ourselves

01:09:08.020 Are you Cornish

01:09:09.080 I would

01:09:12.160 Personally

01:09:12.820 Don't get me for this pro Cornish

01:09:18.380 Independence people

01:09:19.200 I'm one of you

01:09:20.580 Personally I'd like to see England 0.96

01:09:24.220 Remain at least England

01:09:25.400 I'm a unionist 1.00

01:09:28.960 I'd like to see Britain stay British 0.98

01:09:30.440 But even if it didn't 1.00

01:09:31.860 Even if it didn't

01:09:34.380 I mean, okay

01:09:36.460 I'm for England first and foremost

01:09:38.360 Graham Moore, before Graham Moore has a problem with me

01:09:41.120 I am for England first and foremost

01:09:43.420 Yes, 100%

01:09:46.580 England should come first in the Union 0.99

01:09:48.880 By a long, long, long chalk 0.99

01:09:50.720 I would like England to stay as one thing

01:09:54.720 I wouldn't like to sort of break off bits

01:09:56.940 Even Cornwall

01:09:57.900 And give them independence 0.82

01:09:59.760 England

01:10:02.880 Okay, there you go

01:10:07.460 Andy Burnham has offered them an independence vote

01:10:09.720 Or maybe it's just about a mayoral jurisdiction

01:10:12.320 Not full sovereignty

01:10:14.240 Don't know, I have to look that up

01:10:17.700 I haven't seen anything about that in the news cycle this morning so far

01:10:19.860 Okay, Fool and Firebird says 1.00

01:10:21.720 The Sikh murderer is a great example of what you said 1.00

01:10:25.800 On our invaders being dumb, craven scumbo 1.00

01:10:28.940 Yeah 1.00

01:10:30.640 This absolute coward 1.00

01:10:33.660 Attacked a tipsy tired man 1.00

01:10:35.480 After a night out

01:10:36.300 Oh yes what a brave warrior

01:10:37.680 Yeah

01:10:38.020 Yeah

01:10:39.440 Found someone that was

01:10:41.500 Weak and vulnerable

01:10:42.320 And just murdered him 0.98

01:10:43.880 Yeah 1.00

01:10:46.420 Dumb craven scum 1.00

01:10:48.300 You characterise that as 1.00

01:10:49.440 Yeah

01:10:50.320 Despicable

01:10:53.680 Mad really

01:10:56.340 Mad

01:10:58.940 Okay, and the last rumble rant for today is Pigdog again, who says,

01:11:02.660 99% of UK wildfires are started by humans.

01:11:06.500 I don't know the exact number, but that's what you're saying.

01:11:12.160 Half this year are arson.

01:11:14.100 I looked this up last week.

01:11:15.640 Three recorded accounts ever in the UK from lightning strikes,

01:11:18.900 of which two of those refer to the same fire.

01:11:21.880 I don't know the exact numbers, but I can believe that,

01:11:24.360 or at least something close to that.

01:11:25.380 It feels like to me a lot of them are arson

01:11:29.840 And if we believe the French authorities this summer

01:11:33.360 At least 9 out of 10 of them were there

01:11:36.300 So why wouldn't the trend be the same here

01:11:39.520 Alright that's the last one

01:11:42.300 Let's have a look at our YouTube subchats

01:11:43.800 Harry you have to do that for me if you don't mind

01:11:45.360 Did you make it so?

01:11:47.340 And engage

01:11:48.260 There they are

01:11:48.740 Thank you very much

01:11:49.660 We've got about a dozen or so

01:11:51.960 Let's start reading them

01:11:54.040 We've got someone new in

01:11:55.260 oh someone new in at number one

01:11:56.640 it's someone calling

01:12:02.520 Feeling Clumsy

01:12:04.240 6968

01:12:06.280 maybe you've done Super Chat before

01:12:07.740 you're not usually in first

01:12:09.100 Feeling Clumsy says

01:12:11.080 Scarborough has been flooded with holiday makers

01:12:14.440 from the exotic islands of

01:12:16.220 Birmingham and

01:12:18.480 Bradistan 0.96

01:12:19.300 used to be Brits here in the summer 1.00

01:12:23.920 now it's 50-50 0.73

01:12:24.860 Yeah, the demographic change in this country is frightening, to be fair, truly frightening

01:12:36.180 Every town and a village, nearly every town and village, let alone big city, you go to

01:12:40.360 It's like, where are all the indigenous native people gone?

01:12:45.220 Why does it seem like, I mean, North Africa or the Near East or the subcontinent?

01:12:49.260 What's going on? Where are all these people come from?

01:12:51.720 No one asked for this

01:12:55.520 No one wanted this 1.00

01:12:58.540 Other than insane, traitorous scumbags, globalists 1.00

01:13:06.620 They wanted it of course 1.00

01:13:07.780 The normal people of Britain didn't want this

01:13:10.140 Absolutely didn't want it

01:13:11.780 Whenever they were given the tiniest squeak of an opportunity to voice their opinion

01:13:16.040 They said they didn't want it

01:13:17.580 Tatum2733 says

01:13:22.300 On his question

01:13:23.280 Oh, is this going to be something

01:13:25.280 What would have to happen in the upcoming years

01:13:30.760 For you to think climate change is real

01:13:32.460 Like how much heat or grid failure, etc

01:13:35.260 Global warming may well be real

01:13:39.140 That the temperatures are going up one or two degrees

01:13:42.180 On average across the whole world

01:13:44.700 Is that due to man-made CO2?

01:13:48.600 Does that drive that?

01:13:52.740 I think Tatum's asked me questions about this before, but

01:13:55.140 It's the man-made, it's the argument that it's man-made CO2 that drives climate change

01:14:03.900 It may well be, I think it is

01:14:05.840 That global temperatures are inching up ever so slightly

01:14:08.720 Okay, yeah, the Earth's climate will always be in flux

01:14:13.080 It will always be in flux

01:14:15.540 What would it take

01:14:19.000 Do you not get it

01:14:21.180 It's the man made CO2

01:14:23.580 The burning of fossil fuels

01:14:25.200 That drives that

01:14:25.960 That's what I think is a liar 0.98

01:14:27.660 A liar 0.98

01:14:28.580 A hoax if you like 0.98

01:14:30.660 Mr Trump would describe it as

01:14:32.320 Alright

01:14:34.100 Okay

01:14:35.220 Rodney

01:14:36.240 That's their name

01:14:36.940 At Rod underscore knee

01:14:38.160 Says

01:14:38.560 A bottle of whiskey

01:14:40.780 Makes this video

01:14:41.600 Both better and worse

01:14:42.540 At the same time

01:14:43.300 I salute you Bo

01:14:44.180 Oh well thank you very much

01:14:45.320 And it's New Zealand dollars

01:14:47.060 So I guess it's

01:14:47.900 Is it in the middle of the night there

01:14:50.060 Or late in the evening there

01:14:51.300 A bottle of whiskey

01:14:54.020 Is there any drinking games?

01:14:56.400 Breakfast with Bo drinking games

01:14:57.520 Every time I say filth or something

01:14:59.720 You've got to have a

01:15:00.540 Someone should make one up

01:15:06.160 If you had a wee dram

01:15:09.260 Every time I said filth though

01:15:10.260 You'd be sloshed in like

01:15:11.340 Four minutes flat

01:15:12.040 okay the next one is also Rodney he says um I was in intermediate school at the height of the cold

01:15:20.380 war the three minute three minute warning was indeed real for us watch QED a guide to Armageddon

01:15:27.560 and threads I've seen both those things yeah I've seen both those things threads the film threads

01:15:31.740 I've watched a number of times three or four times last time not that long ago two or three

01:15:35.760 years ago yeah like unrelentingly dark isn't it yeah i've read read and watched loads about the

01:15:44.360 cold war threads is good i mean good it's super dark the first half of the film is very slow

01:15:51.420 but it's worth a watch it's absolutely worth a watch just gets more and more relentlessly dark

01:15:57.660 because the initial strike of a nuclear weapon is just the beginning of the horror isn't it

01:16:03.360 That's just the beginning the people that are annihilated or burnt to death or horribly burn in that initial bus

01:16:09.360 That's just that that's the tip of the iceberg

01:16:11.820 tip of the iceberg

01:16:17.080 Yeah, I know three more three minute warning was a real thing. Yeah, I'm duck and cover

01:16:24.480 It's civil defense that's what they called it civil defense 0.96

01:16:28.100 The Russians, which it would have been, wouldn't it? 0.90

01:16:31.120 The Soviets, rather, sorry 0.84

01:16:32.280 The Soviets had nuked this island 0.93

01:16:35.800 Got to duck and cover

01:16:38.480 Get used to all the rules surrounding civil defence

01:16:43.200 Get a door and lean it against a wall in your house

01:16:47.560 And climb in there

01:16:48.940 Don't think too much about the fallout

01:16:58.100 don't think too much about that don't think too much about how when there's a systems collapse

01:17:02.900 of infrastructure how you defend yourself and feed yourself and get clean water

01:17:09.620 don't think too much about the real real realities of sort of

01:17:12.340 a fairly slow radiation poisoning don't think too much about that it's too horrific

01:17:17.380 okay

01:17:20.180 the next one oh next two are also rodney so i'll read those out it says says i'm jeng x and get

01:17:25.220 called a boomer whenever a youngster wants to blame others for their own bad decisions yeah

01:17:31.220 it's funny the word the word boomer isn't it that it gets used to it's almost shorthand for

01:17:35.620 any sort of ineptitude like you know when someone clicks on the wrong thing or just

01:17:39.220 make some sort of very tiny technical mistake it's like you've boomed it stop being a boomer

01:17:43.540 that was a boomer moment it's not really fair on as i say i stick up for based boomers because when

01:17:50.340 But when you find a real base boomer

01:17:53.340 And there's a lot of them to be fair 1.00

01:17:56.340 Anyway I don't know, baby boom 1.00

01:17:58.340 When men came back from World War II 0.71

01:18:02.340 A lot of them had children at that point

01:18:05.340 Straight after World War II

01:18:07.340 Those few years after World War II 1.00

01:18:09.340 They're baby boomers 1.00

01:18:11.340 They're people that are old now 1.00

01:18:13.340 Or in their 70s, 80s even

01:18:15.340 So to be a real boomer, a true boomer

01:18:17.340 You have to be reasonably old 0.61

01:18:20.340 But now it's just almost shorthand for anyone who's not a Zoomer almost, isn't it? 0.85

01:18:25.460 Yeah, I'm Gen X. 0.59

01:18:26.480 I'm not even Gen X.

01:18:28.080 I'm sort of the youngest Gen X you can be,

01:18:30.100 or really the oldest millennial it's possible to be.

01:18:35.040 And yeah, I get called a boomer sometimes. 0.86

01:18:40.420 Poor based boomers. 1.00

01:18:42.540 Hashtag pray for the based boomers. 1.00

01:18:45.140 That's what I say. 1.00

01:18:46.600 Okay.

01:18:47.840 And the last one here from Rodney says,

01:18:49.440 Millions must go

01:18:51.860 Note YouTube forced me to reword this

01:18:54.300 Yeah

01:18:54.540 YouTube

01:18:55.780 Like

01:18:57.060 Comments and super chats and stuff

01:18:59.420 They're really quite

01:19:00.200 They're one of the most censorious things out there

01:21:16.820 carmichael cookie dough foot job that's what they've decided to call themselves and they've

01:21:21.520 written um will you guys have another live event this november december i would love to attend

01:21:29.380 also if you have you ever had someone cover you as host i can only imagine cole's face

01:21:37.580 at having to say my name yeah well one time dan tubb yeah i was up it was something to do with

01:21:43.320 restore wasn't it uh was it the makerfield yeah it was makerfield i stayed overnight up in makerfield

01:21:50.460 i was traveling back super early that morning so dan tubb covered me don't you remember it

01:21:55.300 he had a very very clever disguise he got a bald cap and pretended to be me in all honesty it was

01:22:04.300 quite funny it's quite amusing uh so yeah one time and to let you guys know as well the gross

01:22:10.860 band the chosen few my band of brothers and sisters to let you know i will be going on a

01:22:14.440 holiday probably towards the end of september maybe even into october at some point for a week

01:22:18.720 maybe 10 days something like that i've got to p-a-y-e you have to take holiday

01:22:24.420 a chunk of it as well at one point um so at some point later in the year i am going to go on

01:22:31.540 holiday and at the moment it's up in the air whether there just won't be a bow show for that

01:22:36.360 time or whether we'll get someone else in big harry and dan tub are sort of the obvious choices

01:22:40.860 i would have thought but anyone could do it if they want to and i don't know that's yet to be

01:22:45.660 decided but again i warned you about that early in the year didn't i it is gonna happen um and

01:22:52.640 what's the other thing he said is there another live event no well no not uh it's all up to carl

01:22:57.600 And as I understand it

01:22:59.460 He wants to do more

01:23:00.400 But there's no immediate plans

01:23:01.800 There almost certainly will be

01:23:03.720 I would have thought

01:23:04.260 More live shows

01:23:05.840 But not anytime soon

01:23:07.040 There's no

01:23:07.420 There's nothing in the pipeline

01:23:08.700 So November, December

01:23:11.060 Almost certainly not

01:23:11.920 Sorry about that

01:23:15.460 Okay

01:23:16.300 They're actually a load of work

01:23:18.020 Actually

01:23:18.360 It's not

01:23:19.020 It's not straightforward

01:23:20.800 To make that happen

01:23:21.940 It's a fair bit of work

01:23:23.180 Okay

01:23:23.680 James Lee Pevenhole says

01:23:25.560 1891

01:23:26.680 The greatest step forward for women's liberation was patented

01:23:30.040 The automobile starter motor

01:23:34.080 Second place goes to the safety bicycle

01:23:38.400 Is that where before 1891 you had to go around the front

01:23:41.600 Like chitty chitty bang bang

01:23:42.580 And drive a crank

01:23:44.080 You actually needed a little bit of muscle

01:23:47.720 A little bit of welly 1.00

01:23:48.720 And it wasn't ideal for women 1.00

01:23:51.360 Now you can just press a button 0.99

01:23:53.560 Is that what you're referring to?

01:23:56.680 okay all right cgmam9823 says indians are among britain's biggest employers if you said this

01:24:05.900 more than once now our auto steel and battery production is decided in mumbai the jlr's

01:24:14.200 cyber attack nearly crippled the midlands why don't your geopolitics experts cover this

01:24:20.480 I don't know

01:24:21.560 I don't know

01:24:22.420 What like

01:24:23.140 Firaz

01:24:23.680 Firaz should

01:24:24.820 Talk about

01:24:25.500 Could talk about it

01:24:26.380 I mean we know

01:24:29.720 We know that

01:24:30.560 Like Tartar Steel

01:24:31.780 And stuff

01:24:32.160 We do know

01:24:33.540 Yeah

01:24:36.080 Okay

01:24:39.220 Alright

01:24:40.360 Still

01:24:40.820 Reasonable point

01:24:41.720 Not

01:24:42.280 Not

01:24:42.840 Throwing shade at you

01:24:43.880 For being like that

01:24:44.480 Yeah we know

01:24:44.960 I don't mean it like that

01:24:46.180 I mean it's a good point

01:24:47.460 It should be talked about more

01:24:49.520 You're right

01:24:50.040 maybe i'll say to in fact i'll say to for us if he's in today

01:24:54.680 i'll say talk about india do one about india

01:24:58.860 yeah all right tatum 2733 says like plus 3c global i think that's my life agree

01:25:12.380 harry do you know what that's going on about does that make sense to you like plus 3c global

01:25:17.140 uh no clue let me oh do you mean i don't know why you put like but oh tatum you're the one

01:25:25.600 also that was talking about what would it take for me to believe in climate change or something

01:25:30.400 yeah okay so plus three degrees in heat global i think that's in my life agree

01:25:36.360 i don't know maybe is it as much as that i thought it was a little less than that

01:25:40.200 but it's in that ballpark isn't it

01:25:42.480 yeah does man-made co2 drive that though that's what i'm asking

01:25:52.060 all right and the penultimate one here uh from carmichael cookie dough foot job that's their

01:26:02.680 name at carmichael underscore cookie dough underscore foot job says the argument about

01:26:09.300 the greenhouse effect is not that warming wouldn't happen without man-made co2 but that the current

01:26:15.000 rapid rate of increase is man-made and is too fast to be absorbed without adverse effects yeah yeah

01:26:21.880 i get the argument yeah and i'm saying it's nonsense yeah i get the i understand the argument

01:26:25.460 they make and i don't buy it between 200 and perhaps as much as 275 parts per million of

01:26:36.460 the 400 to 475 odd

01:26:38.660 parts per million of CO2 in the atmosphere

01:26:40.840 yeah I don't buy it

01:26:42.140 the rapid rate of

01:26:44.760 increase is due to that, is it

01:26:46.600 I get the argument

01:26:48.740 I get the argument

01:26:49.980 sorry Carmichael 0.99

01:26:52.940 cookie dough for a job, didn't mean to be aggy with you there either

01:26:54.920 it's like yeah I get the argument, no I don't mean it like that

01:26:57.140 I'm just saying

01:26:57.580 got to strike the right tone

01:27:00.560 with the glorious band of chosen for you, my band of brothers

01:27:14.140 CO2 increase effect.

01:27:16.280 My law needs cutting more.

01:27:19.440 Right, I mean, yeah.

01:27:21.460 You look back through geological time,

01:27:23.740 the amount of CO2 we've had in the atmosphere.

01:27:26.440 Orders of magnitude.

01:27:27.780 If anything, we're at some sort of crazy all-time low

01:27:31.560 for CO2 in the atmosphere.

01:27:33.560 We've had orders of magnitude higher CO2 levels in the atmosphere

01:27:39.360 And a snowball Earth situation

01:27:41.560 Alright, okay, alright

01:27:46.940 Well that's the last one, that's the last one
