On today's show, we're joined by comedian and friend of the show, Brian Callen, who joins us to talk about the government shutdown, the midterms, and much, much more. Plus, we have a bunch of other news, including a report that the election results were rigged.
00:01:02.000Airlines have canceled more than 700 flights in the U.S. as the travel apocalypse is upon us.
00:01:10.000However, maybe Trump will finally convince the Republicans to end the filibuster, and then they'll put a stop to this government shutdown madness because I am not playing these games anymore.
00:01:19.000Certainly, Democrats are trying to extend ACA benefits to non-citizens.
00:01:23.000Fine, they could simply give the Republicans the votes they need, but Trump is right, and Republicans could end the filibuster at any moment and push through his agenda, but they don't do it.
00:01:33.000This is not good news as far as I'm concerned, because the American people voted for the Republicans to get the job done, and they're choosing not to.
00:01:40.000So, what excuse are they going to have come the midterms?
00:01:42.000Now, between now and then is an eternity, so we'll talk about this and a whole lot more.
00:03:11.000We got tens of thousands of people that are hanging out.
00:03:13.000In fact, as of the recording of this episode, they're hanging out in the backstage listening to us riff and play music and prepare for the show and talk about what's going on.
00:03:21.000You can join that by going to TimCast.com, getting involved now.
00:03:25.000As a member, you support the work we do.
00:04:53.000I've liked you from, I remember when I've always, I always watched you because you were this voice of reason and you were always kind of taking it to people.
00:05:01.000You had the energy to kind of, you had that rare quality of not worrying about being liked, which I loved.
00:05:08.000And then when you did Rogan with those, with Jack Dorsey and his safety czar, whatever the hell, and you ended it, they were kind of convincing me.
00:05:18.000I was like, yeah, maybe it's the world's good.
00:05:21.000And you just went, I think it's dangerous.
00:05:23.000I think what you're doing is dangerous.
00:05:28.000Yeah, it was the general question was who appointed you the arbiter of morality for 100 plus million people to decide what issues qualify and don't.
00:05:38.000And yeah, but we'll get into the news.
00:06:57.000We've got like six people that are flying in.
00:06:59.000And I hope that those flights don't get canceled.
00:07:02.000It's going to really screw up our operations here.
00:07:04.000That being said, initially it was obvious Democrats in the shutdown were saying we want to extend ACA benefits to non-citizens, doc recipients, societies.
00:07:45.000You better let that transgender stuff, let that go for now, okay?
00:07:49.000Because what I care about is inflation, is the price of things.
00:07:54.000And if Americans feel uneasy, which we're starting to feel, and you're not talking to us and letting us know that there's a plan, and I'm not saying they're not, but it's the feeling I get.
00:08:05.000I'm just not getting enough of that communication.
00:08:07.000That's why you're going to start losing elections.
00:08:13.000I get a lot of people in my mentions on X and stuff, and they'll be like, you know, this issue, that issue, Donald Trump hasn't produced enough, hasn't deported enough people.
00:08:24.000He hasn't brought indictments against enough people.
00:08:26.000They haven't released enough information on this particular issue or whatever.
00:08:30.000And I'm like, look, these are all important to a narrow segment of the population.
00:08:34.000They're very important to a narrow segment of the population.
00:08:37.000But if you want to win elections, you have to focus on kitchen table issues.
00:08:58.000Donald Trump just the other day was saying, you know, the economy is the great, the economy is the greatest, blah, blah, blah.
00:09:03.000And if people don't feel that and they hear the government, the people in the government saying that, they feel like they're being told that their issues don't matter to the people in the government, and that will lose you elections.
00:11:05.000The general idea is with the North American Free Trade Agreement, now the USMCA, the moneyed interests wanted to normalize the economies between North America, Canada, and Mexico, which effectively makes an economic block.
00:12:28.000So I do believe the tariffs are having a negative impact on prices.
00:12:32.000Like prices are getting bad in a lot of areas.
00:12:34.000The problem is the point you made about Captain America and diabetes.
00:12:38.000If you go to the American people and say, if we do not stop this free trade exportation system that we have, as you mentioned, you will have cheap milk with no job and no money.
00:12:52.000I need more communication from I agree.
00:12:56.000But I got to tell you, I'm standing next to Zorhan Mamdani, and I say, listen, if we put tariffs now, your prices will go up a little bit, but over the next 10 years, you're going to have substantially more buying power and homegrown products, better jobs, better money.
00:13:11.000And Zoran goes, I'll give you the milk for free.
00:13:17.000Well, again, that's probably because people have bought into what they were sold, probably mainly from the boomer generation, and it hasn't worked out.
00:13:30.000You can't afford your rent in New York City or wherever it might be.
00:13:34.000The other thing to keep in mind about New York City and Zorhan Mamdani is that New York City, and I'm from, my family's from New York City.
00:13:41.000It used to be a city of families, middle class.
00:14:45.000So this is, this never would have flown before, but now that's what you saw in the exit polling: native-born New Yorkers voted overwhelmingly for Cuomo.
00:15:05.000Well, and it's this new form of transplants, too, because prior it was the yuppies, you know, the stereotype, you're like Patrick Bateman stereotype, but now they're calling him yuckies, as young creatives.
00:16:32.000And so, the bullying where they were physically disabling and harming children to the point where they had permanent injuries is like, holy, that's got to stop.
00:17:32.000And boys are very good at organizing and fighting back.
00:17:37.000And they have a sense of humor, but they're also vicious.
00:17:39.000And they have an inherent understanding that the world's a kick in the nuts.
00:17:44.000And you better start simulating that experience or you're not going to be able to fly in this world.
00:17:49.000Because I think men and boys in general, we tend to, if a SEAL Team 6 guy comes in and he's got some battle scars, all of us go, we all just kind of go, hey, there's daddy.
00:18:08.000But I, but I also think there's a large portion of guys where it's like there's some dude who's a like a contractor, plumber, and he's got a big belly and he's sitting there at the table and he's with his buddies.
00:18:20.000And then the SEAL team guy walks in and he thinks, I could take him.
00:18:33.000But it doesn't matter how educated, it doesn't matter how the only question in the room, actually, the first time you meet a man is, could I kill this motherfucker?
00:26:14.000I have skeptical hippo eyes over this article because here's the thing.
00:26:18.000Virginia always ends up, historically, has always voted Democrat when there's a Republican in office, if you look that up.
00:26:26.000And also, and I think Jersey is the same way, but more importantly, these candidates were, whether they're moderate or not, were posing as moderates.
00:26:36.000They stayed very quiet on the trans issue and these culture issues that kind of swing elections.
00:26:41.000And that was on purpose because what they were told by strategists was do not bring up things that are triggers like the trans issue.
00:26:50.000If they bring that up, stay quiet, which is exactly what they did.
00:26:54.000And they steer where they steer it to the economy, inflation.
00:26:58.000And Americans, again, this is an example.
00:28:21.000Where he points out in the data the exponential collapse of population.
00:28:27.000The point being that the factors that are causing women to be childless have resulted in a gen alpha that is half the size of Gen Z or millennial.
00:28:48.000If we're seeing an exponential decrease in children to the point where in one generation, we now have half the size, Gen Alpha, it's going to be less than half.
00:28:57.000So that means Generation Bravo, so Gen Z is going to have kids and they're probably going to have 40 million.
00:29:05.000And then Gen Alpha will have kids and it's going to be 10 million.
00:29:30.000South Korea is the worst, and Japan's a close second.
00:29:32.000But their new prime minister came in and said, I would rather say I'm voted on the mandate of we would rather run our population into the ground than like change the composition of the country from Japanese to non-Japanese.
00:30:45.000Yeah, so it's the libertarians and many moderate liberals just keep arguing, but graph go up.
00:30:51.000And so what happens is, I was having a debate with this liberal guy, and he goes, you guys are getting, you don't have kids.
00:30:59.000Now you're getting rid of all the immigrants, so there's no jobs.
00:31:01.000There's no one's going to work anywhere.
00:31:02.000Everything's going to go out of business.
00:31:03.000And I said, some things are more important than having a restaurant to eat at.
00:31:07.000I don't need the Thai food restaurant that shut down.
00:31:10.000I need waking up on Christmas morning with snow falling all around, candles lit, and my family coming into the living room under the Christmas tree or presents.
00:32:00.000I want our great American cities to be of the American tradition.
00:32:04.000And that means you can be white, black, native, Latino, Asian, whatever, but it means you're wearing a Yankees shirt, not Mogadishu or whatever.
00:32:25.000You've got to get back to basic principles.
00:32:27.000And it's very important to understand why the West has thrived, why the West is somewhere people come to as opposed to flee from.
00:32:37.000It's also very important to understand why the West is a place where you can be what you envision yourself to be instead of having to be what you have to be, which is what most of the losers of history have had to deal with.
00:34:55.000You can't just have anyone become a doctor.
00:34:59.000There was a person that I was talking to on accident.
00:35:02.000He was saying, oh, you know, if we just gave people more money to go to medical school, we'd have more doctors.
00:35:07.000And I'm like, like, medical malpractice is already the third leading cause of death in America.
00:35:13.000You don't want you want medical school to be hard.
00:35:17.000You want the requirements to be stringent.
00:35:20.000And you want to make sure that the people that are actually graduating are really capable.
00:35:26.000Because if not, you're going to end up with even higher mortality rate when it comes to medical malpractice.
00:35:33.000So the idea that you can just replace one person with another person, that you can just bring people in to the country and it'll be the same as people that would be born here.
00:36:17.000You know, somebody who lived in the Middle East for eight years of their life, you know, the Lebanese, there are certain cultures that are incredibly entrepreneurial.
00:36:25.000The Lebanese and the Syrians before the Civil War, when you had an entire generation that wasn't educated, were incredibly, and Armenians, for example, incredibly entrepreneurial.
00:37:13.000Zarad Magdani, Islamic Elevates, our brother in Islam, Islamic Caliban of New York starts today, baby.
00:37:21.000God, there is just something so electric, so satisfying about knowing that my MAGA parents, wherever they are, are probably having a horrible night tonight.
00:37:31.000I literally just got goosebumps thinking about it.
00:37:34.000Like, they are in such a bad mood, probably, about the fact that Zoron just won and Prop 50 is going to pass.
00:40:30.000She is saying in this video in New York, where I'm assuming she lives, maybe she doesn't, but we're all going to suffer and destroy our lives.
00:41:10.000What they don't understand is that it has nothing to do with the person.
00:41:14.000When you set up a system where you have the great equalizer, which is this, this government, you have that, there's only one way to equalize everything and it's through force.
00:41:26.000And I'm going to say that when you create that, that will draw in the sociopaths that want nothing but power and they will get rid of the people that have all these wishy-washy ideas.
00:42:42.000But like, I think in this instance, what we're seeing here and what we're seeing with that demographic, to be fair, made up a lot of the activist base that propelled Mamdani is these people are deracinated, which as in they've been uprooted from their cultural environment they grew up in and they're just completely free in the wind.
00:42:59.000And those types of people look for other people that are deracinated, people that don't really have anything to latch on to.
00:43:03.000So then when something exciting comes along like Zoron, they can latch on to that.
00:43:07.000They finally have some identity because there's such a crisis inside of you.
00:43:35.000My question is, how long until we see a Democrat say, someone, or how about they say, elect me and I will rid you of these meddlesome Republicans.
00:43:46.000So I hope it doesn't come to that because as I always say, the conservatives, if the liberals want to actually do this with conservatives, it's such a bad idea for them.
00:43:58.000Every time I hear somebody talking about violent upheaval and revolution, I promise you, I can look at them.
00:44:05.000They've never done a contact sport, much less done anything with a gun or a knife.
00:44:10.000The conservatives I know shoot real straight and they are very familiar with the world of violence, which is why they never talk about it.
00:44:20.000Because if you let those dogs slip, it's going to get anyone who can tell anyone who's studied Civil War and anyone who's lived through a civil war will tell you it is the worst idea you can imagine.
00:44:32.000It's the people that are willing to do things other people aren't willing to do who are very good at organizing and violence that will take over everything and take everything from you.
00:44:48.000But what they don't understand is the left may be scrawny, retarded, weak individuals who've never fought a gun in their lives, but they can figure out how to make explosives.
00:44:59.000And when you're expecting Antifa to march through your streets all tough, like it's time for civil war, that won't happen.
00:45:05.000Someone will put a bomb under your car and your daughter will get in to go to school and it'll blow up.
00:45:09.000And you'll go, oh my God, why is this happening?
00:45:11.000Because people who can't fight head-on, conservatives, warriors that fight head-on, right?
00:45:23.000You can look at like, you can look at what was going on in Syria or in any other war-torn place, and that will give you an idea of what it'll look like should something like that happen here.
00:45:36.000A civil war in the United States will not be, you know, battalions taking the field of battle.
00:45:42.000It will be your cousin being found in a landfill with his hands tied together with piano wire swollen up like Mickey Mouse hands with drill holes in his thighs.
00:46:08.000He said he wanted his opponent's children shot and dying in the arms of their mother to change her views.
00:46:15.000These are people who are not telling you that they're going to form a faction, raise a flag, march to the city and say, we are asserting new governance.
00:46:24.000These are people that are telling you, we may not fight as well as you, but we will cause you such extreme suffering, you will beg us to stop.
00:46:31.000So what are the scenarios proposed by these people?
00:46:34.000It's not going to be that you amass your buddies in your neighborhood watch form a militia and work with the government to stop roving bands of Antifa taking over cities.
00:46:43.000As I already mentioned, it's going to be one Antifa guy going into a school and shooting 12 children as they pray and then saying the war ends when you decide, but this won't stop until then.
00:46:55.000And that's a scenario we've already seen.
00:46:58.000There will be targeted assassinations.
00:46:59.000It will be asymmetric because they are weak, but conservatives want to be left alone.
00:47:05.000They're still law-abiding for the most part.
00:48:17.000Virginia elects Jay Jones, a man who said he wants his rival's children to be murdered and dying in their arms so they change on policy and that he'd put two bolts in that of a Republican.
00:48:26.000What I believe we will see under Jay Jones, nothing.
00:49:01.000And you're going to see prominent conservatives and you'll hear a story of, you know, a middle, a moderate influencer who lives in the Virginia area, and he's been charged with possession of cocaine.
00:49:36.000They will pull over a prominent conservative.
00:49:38.000The cop will say, I can see what appears to be illegal contraband in the backseat of your car, take him out, and then pull a little baggie of coke out and say, look what I found.
00:49:46.000This is what when they started arresting Trump's lawyers years ago, people should have recognized where we were at.
00:49:54.000More importantly, Douglas Mackey, the first, as soon as Biden gets in, the FBI goes to his home and arrests him for a meme that he did not even make.
00:50:03.000So when people say, Tim, you're being paranoid, I will stress.
00:50:07.000Some people in a chat group made a meme saying, vote for Hillary by text.
00:50:11.000This guy tweeted out thinking it was funny.
00:50:15.000Jenna Ellis was a lawyer that Trump hired to draft a letter about information they wanted to receive on elections because they were challenging it.
00:50:23.000She was criminally charged under RICO.
00:50:29.000Fanny Willis and Melvin Bragg, whatever his name is.
00:50:33.000These creative DAs charging sitting presidents, ex-presidents with crimes you would never charge anybody with by inflating and figuring out ways to be creative with the law.
00:50:44.000And that I lay that at Biden and the whole administration's mantle.
00:50:49.000The left started this, pre-pardons all these things.
00:51:13.000Long story that I won't tell again, but that's the gist of what happened.
00:51:16.000And you can see some of the story reported by NBC News.
00:51:19.000So I said, at this point, I am going to forego family holidays and going back to Chicago, where I'm from, because I know how evil and corrupt the state is.
00:54:31.000You don't need a conspiracy to steal an election, an ideology.
00:54:35.000If 10,000 people across the country who have in some way working at a polling location just want to break the law for their ideology, they'll do it.
00:55:20.000Illinois has a— I need a little energy.
00:55:24.000Illinois may have changed recently, but back when I was there, they have mandatory minimums on burglary, drugs, and a bunch of other things.
00:55:29.000If they're going to do that, they're going to plant a brick because that's not going to fly.
00:56:37.000He's got like, he's got a legion of guardian angels surrounding him.
00:56:41.000But to your point, to your point, like, should the Democrats win in the next presidential election, actually, not even just the next presidential election, should Democrats take the House?
00:58:33.000You've got these radicals like Mamdami, and you've got a lot of Democrats who are like, hey, I'm just an old school Democrat and I'm a traditional American.
00:58:42.000And all of this stuff you guys were talking about.
00:58:45.000The one thing that you have to remember is when you start talking about the transgender issue and DEI, these are very difficult things to apply at the level of detail.
00:58:54.000Americans inherently, first of all, are suspicious on left and right of what?
00:59:46.000I mean, that's why, that's why, like, I was saying earlier, like, the argument that you need, that the Republicans need to make is we have policies that will make your life, make it easier for you to provide for your families.
00:59:59.000Not we have policies that are going to give you these things, these things that can be taken away by government.
01:00:05.000We have policies that are going to make you, that are going to empower you to provide for yourself and for your family.
01:00:13.000Because when you allow, when you give people the power to take care of themselves, they will look at that and they will take action in a positive way, as opposed to when you give people a handout.
01:00:27.000I mean, it's the old adage of, you know, teach a man to fish, you feed him for life, you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, right?
01:00:33.000Like it is better to give people the ability to act on their own and provide for themselves than it is to give them a government program.
01:00:43.000Because I think most Americans understand that government programs can be taken away.
01:00:46.000And the shutdown that's going on right now is clear evidence of that, right?
01:00:50.000People that are on SNAP, if they've never experienced a government shutdown before, they're experiencing it right now.
01:00:57.000They're like, holy cow, you mean this stuff can stop?
01:00:59.000You know, what people have to remember about the American experiment that's so unique to this country is the fact that, and we have to preserve this at all costs.
01:01:08.000The reason we never really have pitchforks at the door is because Americans realize there's always the chance I may be poor today, I could be rich tomorrow.
01:01:19.000And that potential has to be protected at all costs.
01:01:23.000That American dream, which may still be out of reach, you have to keep that mythology.
01:02:18.000People, Republicans have got to stop trying to be like Trump, first of all.
01:02:21.000Trump, my buddy, I think, I can't remember his name, but he said, he said he knew Trump's going to win the election when somebody said to Donald Trump, they said, listen, do you think that Mitch, who is the governor of Massachusetts?
01:03:51.000Here's the real story: A guy tried running out of a spirit Halloween after having stolen a bunch of costumes, or that's the process of stealing.
01:03:58.000The security guard grabbed him to stop him, as is his job.
01:04:01.000And the criminal began to fight the security guard.
01:04:04.000Security guard told him to stop, otherwise he would shoot him, but holstered his weapon.
01:04:08.000He then pulled a pepper spray out and sprayed the criminal as they were fighting on the ground.
01:04:13.000The criminal flipped him over, got on top of him, and started punching him in the face.
01:04:16.000And the security drew his weapon and shot the guy three times in the chest.
01:04:54.000This is 25-year-old Josiah Armijo, working security.
01:04:59.000I don't know if they have the capability to cover all of his legal costs.
01:05:02.000I don't think that I could do that, but I could certainly assist.
01:05:05.000And I'll see if there's a way I can get in touch with his family and provide some legal, financial legal assistance because we cannot live in a country where criminals are protected.
01:05:28.000Because this is New Mexico and they're communists.
01:05:30.000If somebody's on top of you and you have a gun on your possession and they're punching you in the face, you have to shoot them because they can take your gun and shoot you.
01:05:48.000And this is part of the reason why police have to go to deadly force whenever, like, whenever someone's trying to incapacitate a police, right?
01:05:57.000If someone were to shoot a police officer with pepper spray or try to shoot a police officer with pepper spray, the police officer must escalate to deadly force because if he is incapacitated, that person can get their gun and that police officer and not just the police officer, but anybody standing around any bystanders, any civilians, they're all in danger.
01:06:21.000Have you ever seen anybody get pepper sprayed?
01:06:23.000Dude, I always had, and I'll just for the story of how I do a gig.
01:11:25.000She had been longtime friends with the one of the women in the house and visited often, but said that one day they decided they didn't like her anymore and no longer allowed her to leave.
01:13:01.000there's something about they have to be polite evil you know there's something about the way they I'm afraid of being a nuisance We have to have you removed.
01:13:09.000I'm terribly sorry that the vice is squeezing your balls, but it's on purpose.
01:14:28.000That's a good joke because it's kind of true.
01:14:29.000Well, that's what JD Vance was at NatCon, and they're like, where do you think is going to be the first Muslim country to acquire nuclear weapons?
01:15:02.000Look, when it comes to back to the other story about the guy that was stealing from the Halloween store, like as a society, We should empower people to defend their property.
01:15:17.000If you're like a, you know, you're a wagey and you're working at Walmart, you probably don't want to put your body on the line for Walmart's, you know, for $45 worth of merchandise from Walmart.
01:15:34.000But at the same time, people need to understand that there are serious repercussions for stealing.
01:15:42.000And the reason is because property rights are fundamental to our society.
01:15:58.000Contracts that can be afforded to them.
01:16:00.000But there's also a simple economic principle in that if the majority of your country is below your median income, you are like, I shouldn't say the majority, but there's a certain point at which if most people are under the median income, you will get a revolution.
01:16:17.000Because all these, what's happening now, it's not even necessarily the median income, it's the perception.
01:16:22.000These young people go on TikTok and Instagram and they see everyone's rich.
01:16:26.000They see these people, they're gambling influencers.
01:16:28.000They're like, I'm going to bet $10,000 right now.
01:16:38.000Well, as we've been talking, sometimes I just kind of step back and I just think to myself, we're having all these conversations about the minutiae of what's wrong with America.
01:16:48.000And then I think to myself, what's going to happen with AI?
01:16:53.000Like, what's going to happen with this exponential rise in technology?
01:16:58.000And a technology we have, we were just listening to this unbelievable music that's made by a computer.
01:17:05.000And I don't, and I get sad and scared.
01:18:17.000I'm not very blackpilled when it comes to like AI and automation and stuff.
01:18:24.000I think that there was just a company that released or started taking orders for a humanoid robot.
01:18:34.000And it's going to be $20,000, $500 a month, and it will be able to learn to do things in your house, do your laundry, to do your, you know, do to clean up your house, to do your dishes.
01:18:46.000I think that that is going to, that type of automation, right?
01:18:50.000Not just at homes, but like those, those types of automation in all of, in all aspects of our society, I think that is going to open up a type of abundance and a type of productivity that the United States, that humanity has never seen.
01:20:28.000And they'll roll him up into a carpet, throw him in a closet, and then keep maintaining the house, changing light bulbs, whatever they got to do.
01:20:35.000And no one will know that Tate's been dead for years because the robots will keep doing their thing.
01:22:00.000When you get to the top of that wall and you've satisfied every craving from power, status, the best-looking women, the best food, whatever it might be, you get to a point where you need more.
01:22:12.000You get to a point where something happens.
01:22:15.000Christianity was founded in the soil that was the Roman Empire when it was bursting at the seams with Greek philosophy.
01:22:24.000All the elite of Rome had their children being tutored by Greek philosophers, et cetera, et cetera.
01:22:30.000It's very interesting to me that this religion that talked about all the antithetical things to Roman culture, like turn the other cheek, might does not make right, the meek will inherit the earth, all these things that were so counterintuitive.
01:24:36.000But look, you've got all these identity crises among the left.
01:24:39.000They're either they got body positivity problems where they wish they weren't disgusting, so they've tried justifying why they're out of shape.
01:24:50.000All these people are going to be like, so you mean there's going to be some 300-pound, six-foot-three, you know, 350-pound obese guy sitting in a chair, and he's going to be like, I'm a cat girl.
01:26:45.000It doesn't somehow satiate that thing that I need that I can't put my finger on.
01:26:50.000There's something about human beings, right?
01:26:52.000This idea that we, look, there's a great debate between Matthew Arnold, this is a long time ago, and Thomas Huxley, who is known as Darwin's Bulldog.
01:27:05.000And Huxley was arguing for the idea that our universities should stop teaching dead languages like Latin and Shakespeare.
01:27:11.000We should be teaching engineering and we should be teaching math and we should be teaching science because that's how a society gets ahead.
01:27:18.000And Matthew Arnold, who was the great philosopher and poet, said, look, it's true the United States is the home to the roaring stock market, the biggest guns, machinery, and the NFL.
01:27:33.000But the reason you teach Latin and the reason you teach Shakespeare and the reason art is the cornerstone of a culture is if you don't support those things, you will be a powerful country, but you won't be interesting.
01:28:04.000The criticism of the content, which was basically that maybe specifically in this political climate, like white people shouldn't joke about genetic superiority.
01:28:15.000Like that was kind of like the criticism, broadly speaking.
01:29:43.000And it's that when you're younger, you flirt with a toxic person, a manipulative person, and a narcissistic person because they bring out your narcissism, your toxic side, your manipulation.
01:30:00.000And those are demons that everybody wants to purge.
01:30:02.000There's something about that kind of the kind of sex that that creates.
01:30:06.000I have this whole joke where the animals in your house are like, something's wrong here.
01:30:22.000And there was an anthropologist who said the reason for that is because somehow you have to have that element in female society because it balances out the gene pool.
01:30:31.000Otherwise, you wouldn't have aggressive men.
01:31:10.000So I think that the reason why women like 50 Shades of Gray is because I think Phil explained it as they want to, I think you were saying this.
01:31:19.000They want a man who is capable of extreme violence, but will not do it to them.
01:32:11.000And what men like, but also what women like.
01:32:14.000Women, what are the romance novels that do the best with women?
01:32:19.00050 Shades of Gray, when they were running out of fucking rope in the hardware stores, the kind of rope in the hardware stores in New York City.
01:35:01.000So right now, there's this really funny video from, who did the video we watched with the, there's the guy and he gets asked, do you want to deport illegal immigrants?
01:36:09.000That's a very interesting way of looking at it.
01:36:12.000So that guy should have told that woman.
01:36:13.000He should have said, yes, I want to deport them and I want to deport her too.
01:36:17.000Or he could have just said when she was like, I looked at him, he could have gone, yeah, if they came in here illegally, they get deported.
01:36:40.000But I think I heard him saying, or one of the girls saying, when the guys are on that show and they're taking it to the gals and debating them and really taking it to them and being honest and kind of destroying their positions, guess what happens when the cameras are off?
01:39:05.000And the audience claimed, and then Bill goes, and then everyone starts clapping and cheering because it's a point that Dennis Prager had brought up and then I iterated upon that these values that Bill Maher, and I'm a fan, I like Bill Maher.
01:39:30.000So now he doesn't know where morality comes from.
01:39:32.000So he assumes people can be moral if they choose to.
01:39:34.000But the left talks about this all the time.
01:39:36.000Look, the idea behind monotheism is what?
01:39:38.000There's one father, which means we are all brothers and sisters, which further means we are all of the same moral worth, our justice system.
01:39:45.000And whether you're a conservative or you're a liberal, we always say things like this.
01:39:49.000A wretch on the streets' life is worth as much as Bill Gates.
01:40:00.000You cannot say to a judge in the land, whether it's a liberal judge or a conservative judge, I killed him because he was in the way and he was taking up resources and he was a wretch and he was always getting drunk, so it doesn't matter.
01:40:18.000There is a trolley headed down a track.
01:40:22.000And if you do nothing, the trolley will bifurcate into two trolleys and then run over a homeless man and Bill Gates unless you choose which track to go down.
01:45:14.000So woke right is a meaningless term, and it's used to criticize anybody who doesn't align with like neoconservative, traditional, Bushian politics.
01:45:25.000And someone posted something like, it's a guy sinking with a ball and chain strapped to him and the ball and chain says woke right.
01:45:33.000And they're like, why won't we just cut this chain off?
01:45:36.000And then I responded with whenever someone uses the term woke right, I take them less seriously.
01:45:43.000And then I got a response saying that sounds like something the woke right would say.
01:45:57.000And I think there's a Batya Unger Sargon has a really great, it's funny because she might actually agree with him all the things, but she wrote about the influencer versus the like the civic engagement.
01:46:08.000She said, what we're seeing is not, well, she didn't say woke right, but the thesis was the Candace Tucker versus Ted Cruz, whatever, it's influencers versus people in politics.
01:46:19.000People who want to change and people who want to get views.
01:46:22.000I don't completely agree that defines Tucker, maybe Candace to a certain degree, because she's literally bragging about how big her show is, you know, fairly often.
01:46:55.000You'll also notice, I don't know if you saw this, the conservative influencers who all of a sudden came out in favor of giving soda pop for Snap benefits.
01:47:04.000So when the Republicans were saying no more soda, if you're on Snap, a bunch of conservatives said, the government's trying to tell us what we can or cannot buy.
01:47:36.000I always just, my thing is, I don't like being gamed.
01:47:40.000When I find myself sometimes siding with somebody in a visceral level, I'm always wary.
01:47:47.000Because a good way to do that with me or a lot of people is if you start breaking this down into angelic versus demonic, good versus evil, I will start listening.
01:47:57.000But life is a little bit more complicated than that.
01:48:57.000Yeah, I think that what, again, what it seems is that if you have issues with, say, for example, Israel's either influence on American foreign policy or Israel itself, I don't think when somebody brings up a valid criticism or something that could be up for debate, I think when you just say that, say that person is anti-Semitic and you dismiss them, that's not working anymore.
01:49:25.000It's a great way to give that person even more audience.
01:50:21.000Ron Quay says, what helps you guys find the balance of being a loving husband and being a stern husband that knows when to be a bit more forceful?
01:50:30.000What I would just say is that's not really a concern for me in my marriage.
01:51:59.000I look at it like, what does it mean to respect your wife?
01:52:03.000Well, people can interpret it a bunch of different ways.
01:52:05.000I respect my wife's capabilities on the things that she does well.
01:52:09.000And I'm not going to give her respect on things that she doesn't do well if she arrogantly asserts she can when she can't, but she doesn't do that.
01:52:31.000When it comes to matters of work, security, or otherwise, like I recently told her, if, if a security incident occurs, I am going to tell you what to do and you say, okay.
01:53:42.000I'm like, a man has to tell a woman when the man is the expert on the issue.
01:53:45.000And if you were in a relationship where the woman doesn't listen, it's causing you problems, there's dysfunction and it's going to cause problems.
01:53:51.000But I also think it's fair to say not every relationship is congruent.
01:53:55.000And sometimes you might have a husband who thinks he's smarter on everything and he's not, or a wife who's assertive on things she shouldn't be.
01:54:01.000Me, I'll describe myself as being lucky.
01:54:06.000Let's grab this from your mom's juicy.
01:54:09.000Is it reasonable to say Ben can be somewhat blamed for Nick's radicalization by shutting him out of all the dialogue without having any form of debate to push back on his views?
01:54:20.000I would say to a certain degree, the snowflake, to a certain degree, yes, the snowflake doesn't blame itself for the avalanche.
01:54:27.000If you have a ton of prominent personalities and they're all refusing to engage with one person, they're all contributing to what that person ultimately ends up seeing the world as.
01:54:37.000Famously, the Westboro Baptist Church lady, whatever her name was, got de-radicalized by being on X, being on Twitter at the time, and actually communicating with people and then realizing her views were wrong.
01:58:04.000I don't know if Serge or Tate want to take a stab at it because the general idea is America first, somewhat white identitarian, conservative leaning, pro-traditional, overlapping heavily with criticism directly of Jewish people and perception of Jewish supremacy.
01:58:23.000Well, that's the problem right now is like what the current zeitgeist is, there's an attempt from people from the pre-MAGA era of the Republican Party that want to expand the term Grouper to mean anybody that's like vaguely critical of our relationship with Israel or like wants to reduce immigration, these sorts of things.
01:58:38.000That's the trap they're trying to set up because they're trying to poison the well for like a JD Van.
01:58:42.000And Grouper fundamentally just means you're an acolyte of Nick Fuentes.
01:58:51.000But now the play from a lot of these people is they're trying to expand that term.
01:58:54.000So that way, when someone gets up on the debate stage in 28 and says, I don't know, maybe we should like cut foreign aid here or maybe we should reduce immigration.
01:59:08.000You know, believe me, when I was in Israel, they said if you have two Israelis in a room, there are three opinions.
01:59:16.000Part of the strength of that country is that there's constant debate.
01:59:19.000When I was there, people were in the streets, literally protesting the Netanyahu government over the Supreme Court decisions that they were trying to get through.
01:59:27.000So that is a country that's always had, I think, 20% of the Knesset is Arab.
01:59:32.000The Knesset itself is rented on land that's owned by the Greek Orthodox Church.
02:01:34.000So the next boards we're coming out with are weapons.
02:01:38.000And I don't have any mock-ups for you, but let me just say: so mine is a, I have to be very careful on how to describe this for copyright reasons.
02:01:46.000It is a 50-caliber anti-material rifle blueprint.
02:01:50.000I can't call it what it's actually called because they own the names and people.
02:03:17.000And then we're going to have limited edition.
02:03:18.000I don't know the team one's going to be, but the plan that we're doing is once a month.
02:03:23.000Instead of just, you know, the issue is that we make skateboards and then we put it up and it's like you can buy it if you want to buy it when you want to buy it.
02:03:35.000So actually, this board was supposed to, the 20th Amendment was supposed to rotate out.
02:03:41.000This says, it looks like constitutional parchment paper with fancy writing.
02:03:45.000And it says, the 20th Amendment, chickens being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep bear and breed chickens shall not be infringed with the little doodle of a rooster on it.
02:04:04.000And so I was like, okay, we can't stop selling it if everybody really, really wants it.
02:04:09.000The reason why they want it, people who own chickens hang it up in their chicken coops because it's a joke about a non-existent amendment to have a right to chickens.
02:04:17.000So anyway, we are just about at that time, everybody.
