Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Alex Jones' Infowars Is FORMALLY OVER, Website Goes DARK w- Tyler O'Neil | Timcast IRL

00:01:17.000 It is the end of an era.

00:01:19.000 InfoWars has officially gone dark, but Alex Jones has already launched his new outlet.

00:01:26.000 And while this is a historical moment, we've long been, I don't want to say waiting for, but we're sitting here watching as this lawsuit plays out where they destroy InfoWars and take down Alex Jones' company, and it just keeps getting postponed.

00:01:38.000 It's been several years.

00:01:40.000 Well, the funny thing is, Alex Jones actually got another stay, stopping Tim Heidegger and The Onion from taking over InfoWars as he launches his new company.

00:01:49.000 And on this front, I thought, We should talk about the ongoing censorship, the expansion of wokeness.

00:01:54.000 There's a lot happening.

00:01:55.000 We got more news, of course.

00:01:56.000 Candace Owens has been formally sued by Brian Harpole.

00:02:00.000 And the court documents are pretty damning.

00:02:04.000 I mean, they lay it out.

00:02:05.000 Now, Candace's fans like to play this game where they say, Candace never said that. 0.95

00:02:10.000 Well, you see, the way defamation law works is the judges are not stupid.

00:02:15.000 They're not going to be like, Did you explicitly state A plus B equals C?

00:02:19.000 They say, Was there an implication?

00:02:22.000 An expectation your audience would come to believe certain facts.

00:02:26.000 And I think the court documents lay this out slam dunk.

00:02:30.000 So this will get particularly interesting.

00:02:31.000 We'll talk about that.

00:02:33.000 And then, my friends, of course, today, Animal Farm, the film has finally come out.

00:02:38.000 And my favorite, my favorite thing about this is the exposing of the grifters.

00:02:44.000 And I say this, and I'm trying to be nice, because I think Riley Gaines is very nice.

00:02:51.000 Actors, Laverne Cox, a trans person, explicitly condemns Riley Gaines' worldview, attacks her activism specifically, and Riley Gaines took money to promote it.

00:03:05.000 I love, I love how the whole thing just gets exposed. 0.73

00:03:09.000 How people will take money, they'll claim they support something and they have no idea what they're talking about.

00:03:15.000 And I am very, very heated by this, you can tell.

00:03:18.000 So I have a lot to say.

00:03:19.000 I've been tweeting nonstop about it, and people are like, Tim, we get it, shut up.

00:03:22.000 Yeah, well, you know what?

00:03:23.000 I care.

00:03:23.000 I want to talk about that before we do.

00:03:53.000 Started drinking Beam Dream when they sponsored the show.

00:04:54.000 Hey, glad to be here.

00:04:55.000 What do you do?

00:04:55.000 Who are you?

00:04:56.000 Oh, I'm just another guy.

00:04:58.000 I wrote the book about the Southern Poverty Law Center.

00:05:01.000 You might have heard of them.

00:05:02.000 They just got a federal indictment.

00:05:03.000 I'm actually reading right now on my laptop the latest motion in the case.

00:05:08.000 It's a very spicy one where the federal government is accusing the SPLC of taking money from donors, claiming that it's fighting hate, and then taking that money and sending it to members of the KKK and increasing hate.

00:05:22.000 So, and yeah, what we're also finding is that they're one of their informants has turned informant for the DOJ specifically.

00:05:28.000 So, as these liberals are saying, no, no, they were just informants trying to stop crime, no, the indictment is largely predicated upon the fact that one of these guys actually went to them and said, hey, actually, this is what they were really doing for which they've been charged.

00:05:39.000 So, that'll be interesting.

00:05:40.000 We'll talk about that.

00:05:41.000 We do have.

00:05:43.000 Another guest.

00:05:44.000 Hi, guys.

00:05:45.000 My name is Olivia Dasovic.

00:05:47.000 I work here at Timcast.

00:05:48.000 I'm the one that manages the Discord.

00:05:50.000 You guys should join.

00:05:51.000 I actually met one of my bridesmaids there, and she got married to someone that's in the Discord.

00:05:55.000 Wow.

00:05:55.000 So, the couple you always reference is actually my bridesmaid and now her husband.

00:05:59.000 There you go.

00:06:00.000 You see, like, you join Timcast thinking you're going to hang out, and then all of a sudden you're married and you have kids and you're traveling and you're going to weddings.

00:06:06.000 You never know what's going to happen.

00:06:07.000 You guys should join.

00:06:08.000 Indeed.

00:06:09.000 Rest of the crew is here, of course.

00:06:10.000 Ian?

00:06:11.000 Happy to be here.

00:06:11.000 Single as always.

00:06:12.000 47 years old.

00:06:14.000 Maybe you should get in the Discord more often.

00:06:17.000 Tate Brown. 0.50

00:06:18.000 Yeah, well, that's got to be great news for all these single women all across America that Ian is still in the market.

00:06:22.000 I think we're going to.

00:06:23.000 I felt the vibe shift of all the women.

00:06:24.000 Man, I was thinking the same thing, dude. 0.78

00:06:26.000 Like, you got a lot going for you.

00:06:28.000 I think you're a catch and something's going to happen for you real soon.

00:06:31.000 Let's get into it.

00:06:32.000 Let's get into it, ladies and gentlemen.

00:06:34.000 No insider knowledge there.

00:06:35.000 Don't bet on the algae.

00:06:37.000 You never know what's coming.

00:06:38.000 Here we go from Infowars.com off air.

00:06:42.000 That's it.

00:06:43.000 Now, I will say this I know for most people, I really don't think this subject matter is going to resonate for the average person.

00:06:51.000 They see a subject, they see a video online.

00:06:54.000 Are they going to click it?

00:06:55.000 I think there are much more salacious bits to lead with, but this is historic.

00:06:55.000 I got to be honest with you.

00:06:59.000 This matters.

00:07:00.000 Infowars was 27 years old, thus officially joining the 27 Club.

00:07:05.000 It has been ended due to the ongoing elite conflict, civil war, whatever you want to call it.

00:07:12.000 I would argue that everything we've seen to shut down Infowars has been pure politics.

00:07:17.000 Now, don't get me wrong, I think Alex Jones has said things that.

00:07:22.000 He probably shouldn't say, right?

00:07:24.000 But to destroy a company, fire all of its people, seize its assets, all of that is absolutely insane over a single defamation case.

00:07:32.000 Now, here's where it gets funny.

00:07:34.000 As I've long told you guys, you can't get rid of a person.

00:07:38.000 There's no lawsuit to stop a guy from speaking.

00:07:42.000 It just, I mean, you can sue somebody, you can sue their company, they can just keep coming back.

00:07:46.000 And the truth is, you get rid of Alex Jones, he can just stand outside as someone else films on their phone live and Alex can talk.

00:07:54.000 And you can't stop it from happening.

00:07:56.000 So, of course, AlexJonesLive.com is the new site using his own name.

00:08:01.000 And you know why he did this?

00:08:02.000 You can't take his name from him.

00:08:04.000 You can sue him for defamation.

00:08:06.000 InfoWars is a brand they seized as an asset, or they're trying to, it's been held.

00:08:10.000 But by going with Alex Jones Live, he's saying, that's my name.

00:08:13.000 You can't use it.

00:08:14.000 You can't take it from him as an asset.

00:08:16.000 Now, the big news in this case is that The Onion was trying to take over InfoWars.

00:08:20.000 The whole story is insane.

00:08:22.000 In my opinion, there's something going on in the back room.

00:08:26.000 Because how the Onion mustered up the revenue.

00:08:29.000 So if we go back in time, the general story is that the Onion didn't have the money to win the bid for InfoWars, but the family said something like, We'll forgive a part of the debt if they buy it, which you can't do because there's money that's been paid out from the suit, and they didn't have the money.

00:08:45.000 So somehow they're still getting it.

00:08:47.000 Well, Alex Jones actually stopped it.

00:08:49.000 And Tim Heidecker is really pissed off about it.

00:08:53.000 And it's all so cringe.

00:08:55.000 Tim Heidecker, you're so cringe.

00:08:57.000 Let me play this clip for you guys.

00:08:59.000 Now, we received a.

00:08:59.000 Freaking out, here it is.

00:09:03.000 This motherfucker, Alex Jones, somehow worked his way into the Texas Third Court of Appeals. 0.99

00:09:13.000 These rats preventing, but postponing the transfer of the site until another judgment can come in or something. 1.00

00:09:22.000 This was on track to happen. 0.75

00:09:23.000 Temporarily, I'll say it's been temporarily derailed.

00:09:27.000 We're committed to moving forward.

00:09:28.000 We're already talking about what that looks like.

00:09:30.000 The short answer is.

00:09:32.000 Infowars will be ours.

00:09:35.000 There's nothing you can't stop this movement.

00:09:37.000 People's accounts can land them. 0.96

00:09:38.000 Anyway, Alex goes on to make fun of Tim Heidegger's comedy, which I think is kind of dumb.

00:09:42.000 But, bro, you're fighting this hard over a domain name.

00:09:46.000 It's like the cringest thing ever.

00:09:48.000 I don't watch Alex.

00:09:50.000 When I watch Alex, when I see his stuff, I see him talk.

00:09:52.000 I don't look for the website name.

00:09:54.000 I don't care about the branding.

00:09:55.000 I want to hear his voice and listen to what he has to say.

00:09:58.000 That's it.

00:09:59.000 I always thought Infowars was a cringe name anyway.

00:10:01.000 Like, what is he trying to create a war?

00:10:02.000 No.

00:10:03.000 I mean, like, he did his expose and now he's.

00:10:06.000 Like full, like now he's full Seon, super Seon God Jones man now with his own brand.

00:10:13.000 I like it.

00:10:14.000 Yeah, the whole onion thing is very cringe.

00:10:15.000 I mean, it's like 10 year old humor, like 10 years old humor as far as like this would have been maybe sort of funny in 2015, but like it's just cringe now.

00:10:24.000 Tim Heidecker is just obviously way behind the times.

00:10:27.000 I mean, you hear, I heard his name involved in this whole story and I was like, oh yeah, whatever happened to that guy?

00:10:31.000 Like that was my analysis of the whole situation.

00:10:36.000 And Alex Jones, I mean, fair play, he jumps right.

00:10:37.000 You know, jumps right back on the saddle here because, I mean, as far as I understand, the parent company's assets are all in control now of the trust behind the Sandy Hook lawsuit.

00:10:47.000 So, I mean, he's got to restart.

00:10:48.000 I mean, he's got to get a new studio.

00:10:50.000 Like, every pencil on that studio now is in the control of this trust.

00:10:54.000 So, fair play to Alex.

00:10:56.000 I mean, what you can't kill a bull moose.

00:10:58.000 I think that would be a very applicable phrase to use in this instance.

00:11:01.000 I mean, I know there's been a lot of tension right now between MAGA and Alex Jones, but I think everyone has a soft form.

00:11:06.000 I don't understand why the Trump administration hasn't helped.

00:11:09.000 Alex Jones, in any way, I don't get it.

00:11:11.000 Well, I mean, to be fair to the administration, I mean, he was calling for him to be impeached in 25th and 25th.

00:11:15.000 Well, that's after the fact.

00:11:16.000 I'm saying that never would have happened if the DOJ actually intervened on a civil rights basis and said, we're going to review this case.

00:11:24.000 The story is, according to Alex, when he was sued for defamation, they never actually had a trial over it.

00:11:30.000 The court ordered he turn over a bunch of documents, and he claimed he did.

00:11:34.000 They claimed he didn't.

00:11:35.000 So he was held in default, meaning there was never a trial over whether he actually defamed anybody.

00:11:42.000 The trial everyone watched was the damages hearing to determine how much you had to pay.

00:11:47.000 So Alex never actually had a trial over defamation.

00:11:50.000 The DOJ could have been like, no, no, no, no, hold on.

00:11:52.000 Whoa, We're going to, we're going to, you know, put a stop to this and come in.

00:11:56.000 They didn't.

00:11:57.000 And I think, you know, I don't know what happened behind the scenes.

00:12:00.000 Maybe they're just like, we don't want to be involved in whatever Alex is doing.

00:12:03.000 But if the right doesn't even try to protect institutions that are in favor of it, then what do they have?

00:12:09.000 No, I mean, I definitely think there's a point there.

00:12:10.000 I mean, insofar as any intervention would come from the DOJ, I think he basically sealed that, you know, that.

00:12:16.000 You know, possibility by going after the Trump admin.

00:12:19.000 I just think from like a pure calculus, you know, if you're trying to sort of keep your company, that just seems like a bad move.

00:12:25.000 But look, what are you going to do?

00:12:27.000 Alex Jones, he's a renegade.

00:12:28.000 I mean, this is his brand.

00:12:29.000 So he's ultimately going to do what he perceives to be best for, you know, conveying the truth and that sort of thing.

00:12:36.000 So I mean, I don't know.

00:12:38.000 I think, again, if he was anticipating, maybe if someone from the DOJ was sort of indicating that they were going to intervene, maybe he would have held his tongue.

00:12:44.000 I don't know.

00:12:45.000 So I think that indicates that the DOJ never had the intention of.

00:12:48.000 In this instance.

00:12:49.000 But yeah, basically guaranteed that it's not going to happen after you literally say, oh, he should be 25th Amendment.

00:12:55.000 And I think personally, that was a bit crazy.

00:12:57.000 When did he say that?

00:12:58.000 It was that same gentleman that was just in that clip there on the show, and they were talking about Iran. 0.94

00:13:03.000 They're like, you know, Trump is effectively a crazy person now, and he needs to be 25th Amendmented. 0.97

00:13:07.000 Like, his mental faculties are declining, and these sorts of things. 0.96

00:13:10.000 Yeah, this would have been like, I don't know, a month.

00:13:13.000 It was actually, I bet Trump had already concocted that truth social post, and then he saw that clip and then threw that in there, Alex Jones in there with it.

00:13:20.000 Cause that was, I mean, it seemed like maybe it was a one off thing, but that's just aiding the left effectively by parroting that language.

00:13:28.000 I really, I kind of agree with the government.

00:13:30.000 Somebody like legally stepping in on this because it felt very much like a dog and pony show, like a circus court thing, like where they brought him in front of a judge.

00:13:40.000 Tim, you already mentioned it.

00:13:41.000 Dude didn't even have a trial because they said he didn't provide the evidence.

00:13:45.000 They were like, well, our word's stronger because we're the court.

00:13:45.000 He said he did.

00:13:48.000 We're taking you to default.

00:13:50.000 That for 1.3 trillion, how much money was it?

00:13:53.000 1.3 billion?

00:13:54.000 Billion.

00:13:54.000 I don't want to get the number.

00:13:55.000 They just say like the economy of France or whatever that is.

00:13:57.000 A guy said some bad words on TV and they took 1.3 billion dollars from him without a trial.

00:14:02.000 Okay, we got to stop that kind of behavior.

00:14:05.000 Yeah, that's against free speech to essentially.

00:14:08.000 Well, I think the greater picture with all of this is there are, there's a deep state and a Trump deep state or whatever.

00:14:20.000 The liberal mechanism is trying to destroy the right.

00:14:23.000 Interestingly, with this SPLC stuff, which I don't know if you've been tracking, did you see that a bunch of companies are now cutting off their cooperation and coordination with SPLC?

00:14:30.000 Yeah, two more gave it to me.

00:14:32.000 Yeah.

00:14:33.000 Oh, yeah, get up on the mic.

00:14:34.000 Two more of them told me that they would also cut off.

00:14:37.000 So you can move on.

00:14:37.000 Funds.

00:14:38.000 It used to be that these companies were like, we partner with the Southern Poverty Law Center.

00:14:43.000 And that was a mechanism of the deep state, of USAID, of the uniparty machine.

00:14:47.000 Trump has crushed all that.

00:14:48.000 Now, with the indictment, these companies are backing off.

00:14:51.000 Imagine what this means.

00:14:52.000 You run a big company, a billion dollar company.

00:14:55.000 The deep state comes to you and says, you work with our guys through this company.

00:14:59.000 Trump comes to you now and says, we've destroyed them.

00:15:01.000 They've lost.

00:15:02.000 You answer to us now.

00:15:04.000 And they go, okay, we're out.

00:15:05.000 We're not involved in whatever that is.

00:15:07.000 I mean, this is.

00:15:08.000 Elite level behind the scenes stuff going on, we can't see.

00:15:12.000 And of course, going after Alex Jones was obviously in line with that.

00:15:15.000 Well, and I mean, if you talk about defamation, I've been following all the defamation cases against the SPLC.

00:15:22.000 They go to everybody, they go to the media, they go to donors, they go to the public, they go to companies, and they say, Look, this is the hate map of all the hate across America.

00:15:34.000 These are the people like the Klan that we have to stop.

00:15:37.000 And on their map with Klan chapters, they have Alliance Defending Freedom.

00:15:42.000 Family Research Council.

00:15:43.000 You know, and you can disagree with these people, but they're conservative NGOs that just exist that are trying to advocate for policy.

00:15:51.000 And now, last year, you know, they added Charlie Kirk, they added Turning Point USA to the hate map.

00:15:57.000 And just four months later, Kirk ends up with a bullet in his neck.

00:16:01.000 And I'm going, well, that certainly doesn't seem like a coincidence.

00:16:05.000 So, of course, the SPLC says, oh, we condemn violence, but they haven't taken Turning Point off the map.

00:16:11.000 There was a shooting in 2012.

00:16:13.000 Where a man showed up with a bag of Chick fil A sandwiches and a semi automatic pistol, planned to shoot everybody in the building of the Family Research Council.

00:16:22.000 He tells the FBI he got the idea from the SPLC's hate map.

00:16:27.000 That's where he found them.

00:16:28.000 And the SPLC still, they say, oh, we condemn political violence.

00:16:33.000 But is FRC off that hate map?

00:16:35.000 No, of course not.

00:16:37.000 They've been on there for over a decade now.

00:16:39.000 We should make a game map.

00:16:41.000 We do need a game map.

00:16:43.000 All these organizations that we don't like, we just use a different word because they say, hey, even when it doesn't apply.

00:16:47.000 If you thought the data centers were excessive now, wait till we try to get the bandwidth for our game app.

00:16:51.000 I mean, do a loving it'll consume all of the internet's bandwidth just outright.

00:16:58.000 Outright, that's right.

00:17:00.000 I mean, the other thing is you think of maps, and I can't help but think of the video game where they were trying to, they had somebody go through and shoot up everybody at the headquarters of Americans for Prosperity video game.

00:17:13.000 And this was, yeah, it's a video game that they put out on the left.

00:17:16.000 And at the same time, the government of California was trying to get all the donors.

00:17:22.000 For Americans for Prosperity.

00:17:25.000 And this made it all the way to the Supreme Court, AFP v. Bonta.

00:17:28.000 It's like the left is out to destroy the right.

00:17:32.000 And the right just doesn't seem to.

00:17:34.000 I mean, we talk about the Alex Jones thing.

00:17:37.000 He didn't get a trial.

00:17:38.000 Right.

00:17:39.000 And if the judges had one ounce of the kind of chutzpah they had going against him, like we just had a really strong case.

00:17:48.000 Right now it's on appeal because they're always on appeal, but against the SPLC.

00:17:53.000 One judge let it go ahead.

00:17:55.000 The second judge said, No, I'm shutting down Discovery.

00:17:58.000 He had this really cockamamie scheme that said, oh, the SPLC isn't really liable for defamation here or there.

00:18:05.000 If anybody is liable for defamation in my book, it is the Southern Poverty Law Center.

00:18:10.000 You don't get worse than that.

00:18:12.000 Did you, yeah?

00:18:13.000 I mean, have you heard about this?

00:18:15.000 Trump's building a military operations center under the White House?

00:18:19.000 I hadn't, actually.

00:18:21.000 So this is interesting because, yeah, and they're still doing it with the ballroom story.

00:18:25.000 All anyone's talking about is the ballroom.

00:18:26.000 But Trump's actually reorganizing.

00:18:28.000 It's called the Presidential Operational Center or something like that.

00:18:32.000 It's been underneath the White House.

00:18:34.000 It's their emergency bunker and control center.

00:18:35.000 It's been there since World War II, but it's never been renovated.

00:18:37.000 PEOC, yeah.

00:18:38.000 PEOC, yeah.

00:18:38.000 He's expanding it.

00:18:39.000 PEOC?

00:18:40.000 P E O C.

00:18:41.000 Oh, good. 1.00

00:18:42.000 He's expanding it.

00:18:45.000 And this is part of the ballroom construction, sort of.

00:18:48.000 They stopped the ballroom stuff.

00:18:49.000 So the conspiracy theory we talked about the other day, the people believe that Trump is going to take over.

00:18:54.000 But you look at the Voting Rights Act, you take a look at this bunker stuff.

00:18:58.000 How would you feel considering all of this if Trump really did say, now that I have a bunker, I'm president for life, Congress will be one party, rule Republican, forever Democrats are gone?

00:19:07.000 Just shut them out.

00:19:08.000 No, that'd be bad.

00:19:09.000 That'd be bad.

00:19:09.000 That'd be more technocracy, more central authority.

00:19:12.000 What if he said, we are hereby banning the Democratic Party permanently because of everything they've done?

00:19:18.000 And then he lays out all the evidence of USAID, the SPLC, all these NGOs and how they were manipulating elections and stealing it.

00:19:25.000 And he says, these organizations and these people involved are blacklisted.

00:19:29.000 We will have new elections, but they will not be allowed to participate.

00:19:33.000 I would suddenly not be much of a political commentator.

00:19:35.000 I'd be like, hmm, that's interesting.

00:19:37.000 Anyway, did you go see the game last night?

00:19:40.000 Sports podcast.

00:19:41.000 Oh, yeah.

00:19:42.000 The World Cup's going to be really exciting.

00:19:44.000 Just walk slowly into the ocean in the sunset.

00:19:46.000 You're done.

00:19:47.000 Yeah, I'd be like, I don't know.

00:19:48.000 It's weird.

00:19:48.000 I lost my Twitter password.

00:19:49.000 I don't have anything to say, I guess.

00:19:51.000 I don't know.

00:19:51.000 My camera stopped working.

00:19:52.000 Funding is reasonable, but politically mandating that they can't organize would be a big bang.

00:19:58.000 They did that already.

00:19:59.000 My point is, I'm making a reference to the communism bill they passed in the 50s.

00:20:03.000 Oh, or they said communists can't do whatever.

00:20:06.000 But what if Trump came out and said, We are releasing now to the public, like the DOJ published this big list of names, evidence, and said, Here's the bank records.

00:20:17.000 They dumped like 3 million files that everybody ripped through these.

00:20:19.000 And you can see how NGOs were funding lawyers to pay off politicians, to rig elections, and they just proved it all.

00:20:26.000 And everyone just was sitting there being like, Oh, man.

00:20:30.000 Well, if they could prove it all, I mean, then.

00:20:34.000 You can go through the process.

00:20:35.000 But I mean, if you really want to be blackpilled, go check out what Woodrow Wilson did during World War I.

00:20:43.000 Oh, yeah.

00:20:43.000 When he stole everyone's gold or.

00:20:45.000 Yeah, well, when he did everything.

00:20:47.000 I mean, that war, the US government took over the economy.

00:20:53.000 I mean, it was legit socialism in the United States.

00:20:57.000 And we don't talk about it enough because Woodrow Wilson was, you know, the sainted figure.

00:21:03.000 Oh, he got us through World War I.

00:21:05.000 But if you actually look at it, it's terrible.

00:21:07.000 They were demonizing people just for being German.

00:21:11.000 And I get that Germans were on the other side of the war, but we weren't talking about Nazis.

00:21:17.000 And we had. 0.98

00:21:18.000 Very racist stuff that the government was putting out saying, if you're German, you're a Hun, you're evil. 0.97

00:21:23.000 I mean, it's.

00:21:26.000 Yeah, and he was taking away basic rights that people had.

00:21:29.000 Oh, Wilson was awful.

00:21:31.000 He's done a lot of.

00:21:31.000 I was thinking FDR, though.

00:21:34.000 FDR stole everyone's gold.

00:21:35.000 Oh.

00:21:36.000 Yeah, FDR was bad.

00:21:37.000 I mean, it's hard for us to say who the worst president is.

00:21:41.000 Woodrow Wilson, maybe.

00:21:42.000 Yes.

00:21:42.000 Woodrow Wilson is a very good contender.

00:21:45.000 Yeah.

00:21:45.000 The only other one who comes close is a guy right before, James Buchanan.

00:21:49.000 No.

00:21:50.000 Where James Buchanan.

00:21:51.000 Who not only did he take the military assets and give it to the South before the Civil War, he also was coordinating with the Supreme Court and got more votes on the Supreme Court for that decision that said black people don't have rights in this country.

00:22:09.000 Nope, there's another president.

00:22:11.000 Well, I mean, there is Joe Biden.

00:22:13.000 I mean, that guy wasn't even there, man.

00:22:16.000 The thing is, Joe Biden, it's too recent for us really to judge how.

00:22:22.000 Because everything he did under that administration was so.

00:22:25.000 And how much did he actually do?

00:22:26.000 Well, but you're right about Buchanan.

00:22:29.000 He, yeah.

00:22:31.000 So did he do that as an appeasement?

00:22:32.000 He gave military assets to the South to appease them so they didn't leave the country?

00:22:36.000 No, he did it clandestinely.

00:22:39.000 So what happened is, and I was reading Ulysses S. Grant's autobiography about this, like Ulysses S. Grant is going through bringing the army together, and he can't get the munitions that were part of the army's own munitions because.

00:22:55.000 James Buchanan had ordered people to take the munitions and move them to the South to areas where they would immediately be part of the Confederate government.

00:23:04.000 Why?

00:23:05.000 Because he wanted the South to win.

00:23:07.000 He encouraged states to secede.

00:23:09.000 There was a lot that he did wrong.

00:23:10.000 But Wilson is the worst for a myriad of reasons.

00:23:12.000 One, he played Birth of a Nation.

00:23:14.000 That was the first movie ever played in the White House, which is historically the most racist movie ever.

00:23:18.000 And he created the League of Nations.

00:23:20.000 And everyone here knows how I feel about the UN.

00:23:22.000 It was basically the UN before the UN.

00:23:25.000 He created the League of Nations, which. 0.90

00:23:27.000 All of the people in Congress said, Oh, that's a stupid idea, and actually voted to be against the very thing that Wilson helped create. 0.96

00:23:34.000 That's how much they hated it. 0.97

00:23:36.000 The United States was never in the League of Nations, but Wilson was the one who basically created it.

00:23:42.000 Well, it was like Woodrow Wilson, I mean, on women's suffrage, he was pretty good, where he, I think they asked him about it, and he's like, I don't know, do they even know how to vote? 0.79

00:23:52.000 Honestly, honestly. 0.97

00:23:52.000 Never mind. 0.97

00:23:53.000 Maybe he's not the worst.

00:23:54.000 Yeah, rare.

00:23:56.000 I mean, he was the founder of progressivism.

00:23:57.000 So, I mean, he gets.

00:23:59.000 Yeah, he eventually came back. 0.70

00:24:00.000 He came around, so to speak, on women's suffrage because he's like, I don't know, we got to win this war.

00:24:04.000 And they'll probably vote for me because I'm like, cool.

00:24:06.000 And I was like, I don't know.

00:24:08.000 What if for the primary, the Republican primary, it's just not a vote?

00:24:12.000 It's just Trump doing the apprentice, but with all of the Republican candidates.

00:24:17.000 Oh, that would be awesome.

00:24:18.000 It's kind of what it's going to be.

00:24:19.000 I think they're going to reboot the apprentice with Don Jr.

00:24:21.000 I've heard.

00:24:22.000 If they, like, okay, so they'll do an actual primary, that'd be great.

00:24:26.000 People can vote.

00:24:27.000 But it would be funny if it's.

00:24:28.000 Yeah, I like that idea.

00:24:30.000 Instead of campaigning, They all just do an apprentice with Trump?

00:24:33.000 I mean, they should for fun anyway.

00:24:35.000 I bet they'll do a skit.

00:24:37.000 I bet they'll at least do a skit with Hilaire.

00:24:38.000 I've maintained this position.

00:24:40.000 I don't think Trump's going to endorse anyone.

00:24:41.000 So, I think it will kind of be apprentice-y in the sense you're going to have like five or six national candidates getting up and making the case of why they're the most Trumpian.

00:24:48.000 That would be the endorsement, would be winning his apprenticeship.

00:24:51.000 Yeah, that's true.

00:24:52.000 He had to get his endorsement.

00:24:53.000 Well, that's why it works well because he fires people, he doesn't endorse them.

00:24:57.000 But he's not coming out behind one person, he's slowly winnowing the field.

00:25:01.000 But what if, what if, you know, everyone's gearing up for the Republican primary and then Trump's at the desk with all of the contenders and then he goes, I've thought about it, you're all fired.

00:25:11.000 And then he puts on like a general cap.

00:25:13.000 And then he throws off his suit, tears away, and he's dressed up like a general and he's like, dictator for life.

00:25:19.000 And then he presses a button, he goes underneath into his military bunker under the White House.

00:25:22.000 Let me stop him.

00:25:23.000 It's too late.

00:25:24.000 I want to say one thing on that conspiracy theory, though, where they're like, Trump's building a military base underneath the White House.

00:25:29.000 What do you think is going to happen?

00:25:29.000 He's going to go down there and lock the door and be like, I'm president still?

00:25:32.000 It's like, okay, you stay in there and be president.

00:25:35.000 I don't think he wants to be president.

00:25:37.000 I mean, this is kind of without saying, he doesn't want to be president.

00:25:40.000 He wants to be emperor.

00:25:40.000 Right.

00:25:41.000 I mean, he wants to start.

00:25:42.000 I think he's got it done.

00:25:43.000 He's illustrated his plans post presidency.

00:25:45.000 This was all the most inspirational.

00:25:47.000 Amazing quotes that he had was it was the last time he was in Scotland.

00:25:50.000 I think it was before he, um, or during his 2024 campaign, he went to Scotland and someone had asked him like what his plans are because he has a castle there and someone asked him what his plans were for it.

00:26:00.000 And he said, In my very old age, I'm going to go to this castle in Scotland.

00:26:04.000 And he said verbatim, I'm going to do the most beautiful thing anyone's ever seen.

00:26:07.000 And everyone's just sitting there like, What is that?

00:26:10.000 What is he thinking?

00:26:11.000 The most beautiful thing anyone has ever seen?

00:26:13.000 Like, what's he got planned?

00:26:14.000 He's going to be 90 and he's just sitting on a throne in Scotland.

00:26:17.000 And you're going to be like, That is the most beautiful thing.

00:26:20.000 I mean, that's like George Washington.

00:26:22.000 That's what made George Washington's presidency so beautiful is that he, you know, left after two terms and established he was the American Cincinnatus.

00:26:30.000 He gave him power.

00:26:31.000 And like, I think Trump, if he arranges things, I mean, the real problem is there's so much left for him to do right now in fighting the state.

00:26:41.000 Well, that's why we need to have somebody that's actually, even if he doesn't endorse, somebody that's worthy of taking up that battle, right?

00:26:47.000 Like somebody who can actually.

00:26:48.000 I like the kind of Emperor Palpatine vibe, or like, I don't know, say JD Vance.

00:26:52.000 Wins the primary and then he becomes president.

00:26:53.000 But then he's got to fly over to Scotland, go to this castle that's like up in the fog.

00:26:57.000 Neil.

00:26:57.000 And he like kneels before President Trump.

00:26:59.000 And you can like, it's kind of foggy.

00:27:00.000 And he's like, Mr. President, the Save Act didn't pass.

00:27:06.000 And he's like, what?

00:27:08.000 I tried.

00:27:08.000 Stand up.

00:27:10.000 So you think he won't endorse Vance?

00:27:12.000 I just keep thinking they'll do it plaintively, like no doubt.

00:27:15.000 I mean, unless it's just like a bunch of just random people in Vance.

00:27:17.000 But you know, it's going to be the same.

00:27:19.000 You know, you're going to maybe see Cruz run or DeSantis or maybe even Rubio.

00:27:22.000 I mean, Trump does, he wants them to kind of commit.

00:27:24.000 And in a way, that would bring the best out of Vance, letting him compete against Marco Rubio, for instance.

00:27:29.000 You know, two guys are together really well.

00:27:31.000 White House UFC, ritual trial by combat, men only.

00:27:36.000 Oh, I agree.

00:27:37.000 I think that could be one direction.

00:27:38.000 Vance is in the toughest spot out of everybody right now because he's having to, he's trying to, he's trying to take a very narrow line right now, which is I am kind of the Anglicanism of politics in MAGA right now, where he's like, I'm both the best parts of MAGA and the best parts of like kind of the broader populist movement.

00:27:55.000 So he's kind of like trying to keep everyone happy right now.

00:27:58.000 And it's just getting more and more difficult for him to do that.

00:28:00.000 We did see Tucker's son leave his office.

00:28:03.000 Granted, he already said he was going to do that in December anyway, so this had really nothing to do with the recent blowup.

00:28:08.000 But it is interesting that JD Vance is kind of trying to keep this coalition back together.

00:28:11.000 You saw him at TPUSA where he's like, oh, I think the Theo Vaughn podcast is great, actually.

00:28:16.000 But at the same time, he's the vice president for President Trump.

00:28:18.000 So he's just, he's trying to take, I think he's in the toughest spot in all of politics, actually.

00:28:23.000 Let's jump into this next story, talking about the coalition.

00:28:24.000 We got this ex Charlie Kirk security chief Suze Candice Owens alleging defamation.

00:28:30.000 And we got the court documents here.

00:28:32.000 It's actually fairly interesting.

00:28:35.000 First, we'll just show the prayer for relief.

00:28:37.000 They want compensatory damages, punitive damages, taxable costs, any further relief.

00:28:43.000 So, the gist of it is Brian Harpool, the head of Charlie Kirk Security, is suing Candace Owens as well as her company, Georgetown Inc., and Mitchell Snow.

00:28:52.000 And Mitchell Snow is a person who appeared on Candace Owens' show.

00:28:55.000 I guess one of the principal claims is that Charlie Kirk Security was at some military base in Arizona, and they planned the day before the assassination of Charlie Kirk his assassination.

00:29:06.000 However, he points out that he is verifiably in Dallas, Texas, as per his flight records at Candace Owens.

00:29:11.000 Access to, and she still repeatedly pushed this lie against him.

00:29:17.000 Now, Candace's response, I guess, is that she's happy.

00:29:19.000 She's been waiting for this because now they get discovery.

00:29:21.000 The only thing is, guys, I just.

00:29:24.000 Nick Fuentes actually said it best.

00:29:25.000 He was like, Do you think the Illuminati planted the wrong gun?

00:29:29.000 Like, these people think they're finding all these clues.

00:29:32.000 Like, the Illuminati did this circuitous plan and they accidentally just left clues behind.

00:29:37.000 There's that other comedian bit.

00:29:39.000 I can't remember who showed it to me where the comedians like.

00:29:41.000 Nick Mullen, yeah.

00:29:42.000 Yeah, he's like, we just put together this great conspiracy, and now there's only one less thing to do the clues.

00:29:49.000 Like, this is what people think is going on.

00:29:50.000 They leave all this stuff behind.

00:29:52.000 So, she's going to get sued, and I think she's going to lose.

00:29:54.000 And I think she might get Alex Jones, actually.

00:29:56.000 I think they're going to ask her for discovery.

00:29:58.000 She'll say she gave it to him.

00:29:59.000 They'll say, no, you didn't.

00:30:00.000 We're taking all your money.

00:30:00.000 You're in default.

00:30:01.000 Look at my podcast.

00:30:02.000 I said it.

00:30:03.000 It's true.

00:30:04.000 That's basically it.

00:30:05.000 The thing is, because this is a right on right action, I don't think that's going to happen.

00:30:09.000 Right on right violence.

00:30:11.000 Yeah, right on right violence, dude.

00:30:13.000 Well, so actually, I'm in the lawsuit.

00:30:15.000 What are you doing?

00:30:15.000 How?

00:30:16.000 Oh, really?

00:30:16.000 Yeah, let me see if I can find it.

00:30:18.000 It's a.

00:30:19.000 There's impact.

00:30:20.000 And this is nuts.

00:30:21.000 People claiming that Brian Harpole had a remote detonator to blow up Charlie's microphone. 0.98

00:30:25.000 There's so many ridiculous things. 0.80

00:30:27.000 What is he like? 0.96

00:30:29.000 I love your point because they think there's this grand conspiracy behind everything.

00:30:34.000 And yet the conspiracy never fits the data.

00:30:38.000 It's always like, oh, I had this own idea in my head.

00:30:42.000 And nothing confirms it.

00:30:45.000 Yeah, there is.

00:30:45.000 Well, we had the debate over it.

00:30:46.000 Look, I'll say this.

00:30:47.000 I don't think the official narrative on how.

00:30:49.000 Charlie died is the correct.

00:30:50.000 I don't think it's correct. 0.59

00:30:51.000 Like a lone shooter was crazy and killed him.

00:30:53.000 Nah, people expressed foreknowledge.

00:30:55.000 So there's something going on there we don't know about.

00:30:57.000 But this story is, I think, this conspiracy about Israel and whatever is meant to actually distract from who may have actually killed Charlie.

00:31:05.000 And it may be Tyler Robinson, of course, the suspect, but who was aiding and abetting, who was helping bring this together.

00:31:10.000 So I had tweeted, Who is Brian Harpole in December?

00:31:13.000 And she responded, Charlie Kirk, security officer that didn't so much as pack his wound after he was shot.

00:31:19.000 Why are we playing Jeopardy?

00:31:20.000 I've never employed Brian Harpole.

00:31:22.000 If you have proof to the contrary, post it.

00:31:24.000 Now, what Candace does is, I never said she hired him.

00:31:27.000 No.

00:31:27.000 You literally just asked who he was.

00:31:29.000 No, My point is, I said Candace Owens had the same security as Charlie, which is kind of obvious because she worked at Turning Point.

00:31:38.000 So, Turning Point hired security.

00:31:38.000 Yeah.

00:31:40.000 They secured Candace, Charlie, and everybody else.

00:31:43.000 She then adds the word employed to reframing it.

00:31:48.000 It'd be like saying you and I have the same security, but I'm not employing them.

00:31:51.000 Yeah.

00:31:51.000 And then the point is, She will then later say, Tim Poole claimed I hired Brian Harpool.

00:31:56.000 I never did, which I never said.

00:31:58.000 She's changing the subject because my point is she has been at events secured by Brian Harpool.

00:32:05.000 So she has been protected by him on numerous occasions at Turning Point USA.

00:32:09.000 She is fabricating all of this stuff.

00:32:13.000 And this is the game she plays semantics.

00:32:15.000 So when Erica Kirk said, Candace is accusing me of killing my own husband, she goes, I never said that. 0.99

00:32:19.000 And all of her retards go, She never said that. 0.80

00:32:22.000 There's literally a leaked text message where she says, Why did you kill your husband? 0.93

00:32:25.000 There's a video where she goes, Right to jail, right to jail.

00:32:28.000 There's another video where she says, if there was this much evidence against me, or what did she say?

00:32:34.000 If Charlie were alive and this much evidence existed against him, right to jail.

00:32:34.000 No.

00:32:39.000 Like, we get it.

00:32:41.000 But it's the weirdest thing to me is how people choose to live in a world where anyone who's paying attention knows exactly the insinuation Candace is making with Bride of Charlie or whatever it was called.

00:32:52.000 She also had a thumbnail of Erica holding a gunpoint right at his neck.

00:32:55.000 And anyone editing that on her team would have been like, whoa, like, either switch, like, do something different because of the message it sends. 0.87

00:33:03.000 She knows what she's doing.

00:33:04.000 Did she text Erica directly and say?

00:33:06.000 No, this was to another employee.

00:33:07.000 You said that there was a leaked text of her being like, why did you kill your husband?

00:33:10.000 Yeah, there was a woman that she was texting with, and the woman was like, what would you ask her?

00:33:15.000 And Candace said, my first question is, why did you kill your husband?

00:33:19.000 And said she was kidding.

00:33:20.000 So she was making a joke.

00:33:20.000 There is a difference between publicly promoting something and having one of your pseudo private communications leaked.

00:33:27.000 But I mean, if you text another human, that's gone public.

00:33:30.000 Whether you want to accept that or not.

00:33:33.000 Indeed.

00:33:34.000 Tell that to Jay Jones.

00:33:35.000 Why would it be?

00:33:36.000 Yeah, yeah, right. 1.00

00:33:37.000 He said he wanted to kill the children. 1.00

00:33:38.000 He wanted the children of his enemies to die so that they would suffer and change their political views. 0.99

00:33:42.000 In a text to someone that got leaked?

00:33:43.000 Yeah.

00:33:44.000 In a text to a Republican.

00:33:45.000 Yeah, I'll tell Jay Jones, don't.

00:33:47.000 Anything you text people is public, dude.

00:33:48.000 Anything you email is public.

00:33:50.000 He doesn't care, and they voted for him anyway.

00:33:51.000 But there is a difference of promoting it and having it leaked.

00:33:54.000 There is a difference there, but it's still public data.

00:33:57.000 But he got all the stuff.

00:33:57.000 Maybe they would argue it's private.

00:33:59.000 Two concerned parties.

00:33:59.000 Guys, guys.

00:34:01.000 Look.

00:34:03.000 Graham Platner's got a Nazi tattoo.

00:34:06.000 And it's not just that.

00:34:07.000 It's the things he posted on Reddit are getting leaked repeatedly or reposted repeatedly.

00:34:11.000 He said a bunch of things that I actually don't find all that shocking, but for a Democrat, you should be upset about them.

00:34:16.000 He called people the F word.

00:34:19.000 And he's also got a Nazi tattoo. 0.85

00:34:21.000 They don't care. 0.77

00:34:22.000 They're going to vote for him.

00:34:22.000 He's the front runner.

00:34:24.000 This is what Keem Jeffries called maximum warfare.

00:34:26.000 My point is, Candace Owens lives in that world too. 1.00

00:34:29.000 She doesn't care. 0.98

00:34:30.000 She doesn't care if it's true or false. 1.00

00:34:32.000 She's like, take what you can get. 1.00

00:34:33.000 The system's going to implode in two seconds and then she'll move to China or something. 0.57

00:34:37.000 About the dude with the Nazi tattoo, I kind of feel like this is. 0.70

00:34:39.000 Based.

00:34:40.000 This dude got a badass tattoo and he didn't care that it was a Nazi tattoo.

00:34:43.000 He did care.

00:34:44.000 He apologized for it.

00:34:45.000 If he owned up to it, I'd respect him.

00:34:47.000 He didn't know?

00:34:48.000 He didn't know.

00:34:49.000 He says he didn't know it was a Nazi tattoo.

00:34:52.000 He's a well known history buff.

00:34:55.000 People have claimed that he's a World War II history guy.

00:34:57.000 He got a Nazi tattoo. 0.68

00:34:58.000 He walked into a Nazi. 0.88

00:34:59.000 Listen. 0.89

00:34:59.000 That'd be nuts. 0.89

00:35:01.000 Nazi paraphernalia is illegal in Croatia.

00:35:03.000 Has been since the 90s.

00:35:05.000 And they've enforced against it in major moves sporadically.

00:35:07.000 Like 2004, there was a report that did a major sweep.

00:35:10.000 Homeboy.

00:35:11.000 Found a Nazi parlor with Nazi imagery on display.

00:35:15.000 That's illegal in Croatia.

00:35:16.000 So he goes.

00:35:17.000 It's a cheeky tattoo parlor.

00:35:18.000 He goes to a tattoo parlor that is publicly displaying on their wall a Totenkampf and he goes, I'd like that. 0.80

00:35:24.000 How do you accidentally go to a Nazi tattoo parlor? 0.66

00:35:26.000 Did he not notice like the SS tattoo on the guy's neck?

00:35:29.000 No, you said, well, the story is that he was heavily drunk, heavily drunk.

00:35:32.000 Sure. 0.66

00:35:32.000 Him and all his buddies were like, let's go to this back alley, illegal tattoo parlor full of Nazis. 0.66

00:35:37.000 So either he got it intentionally or he's so retarded he didn't know. 0.99

00:35:40.000 Or, can we add to this? 0.97

00:35:42.000 Do you think that was the only thing on the wall?

00:35:45.000 No. 0.86

00:35:45.000 If they're going to put a Tottencomp when they maybe put an SS and a swastika and a bunch of other things. 0.86

00:35:49.000 Maybe it wasn't on the wall. 0.98

00:35:49.000 Maybe he's like. 0.98

00:35:50.000 He said it was on the wall. 0.96

00:35:51.000 He's like, I want swastika.

00:35:51.000 Anyway, I don't want to get into the grand plan.

00:35:53.000 I don't want to get into the grand plan.

00:35:53.000 I want to get into the grand plan.

00:35:54.000 Drunkenness doesn't make you a different person. 1.00

00:35:56.000 My point is this to go back to what Candace is doing in the lawsuit and where we're currently at politically, it's maximum warfare.

00:36:03.000 I see, you know, we've got this data coming out that Tucker Carlson is the biggest podcast ever in history, 20 times bigger than Joe Rogan.

00:36:11.000 I mean, this is tremendous.

00:36:13.000 I should pull this up.

00:36:15.000 I'm going to pull this up for you guys.

00:36:16.000 Did you guys hear?

00:36:17.000 You guys all, we talked about it before the show.

00:36:19.000 Tucker Carlson is 20 times bigger than Joe Rogan.

00:36:21.000 I mean, this is tremendous, tremendous work.

00:36:23.000 I don't know how he did it, but certainly his message of anti Trump and anti Israel has resonated massively with his audience.

00:36:36.000 And so we have this here Tucker Carlson Network sees historic growth.

00:36:41.000 Look at this.

00:36:43.000 His episode viewership across all socials is 56.8 million.

00:36:46.000 That's amazing because Joe Rogan does about 2 million.

00:36:48.000 He does about 2.

00:36:50.000 Now, if at his peak, Rogan and Spotify have said that his episodes have gotten upwards of 10 million.

00:36:58.000 I mean, look, if Joe is like, if Tucker is five to 20 times, because right now I think Joe's numbers are around 2 million, 56.8 million views per episode.

00:37:12.000 Wow.

00:37:13.000 I mean, this has got, this should be front page.

00:37:15.000 This should be the biggest thing ever.

00:37:17.000 Everyone should be talking about how big Tucker Carlson is.

00:37:18.000 My point is this obviously it's not real.

00:37:22.000 Anybody who thinks Tucker is getting 60 million views per episode, and I want to clarify, he's comparing.

00:37:29.000 Tucker Carlson tonight, primetime viewers at 5.3 million to his current show, episode views across socials at 56.8.

00:37:38.000 He's not saying promo clips.

00:37:39.000 He's not saying segments.

00:37:41.000 He's saying episode views.

00:37:43.000 If you really believe he's 10x bigger than when he's on Fox News, okay, well, I don't have to tell you.

00:37:48.000 I asked Grok a little bit about it.

00:37:49.000 They said that if you scroll past the show on Twitter, that's a view.

00:37:53.000 And if you scroll up and down, that's two views.

00:37:53.000 Of course.

00:37:56.000 The point is this why wouldn't Tucker exclude that?

00:37:59.000 Because it's not fair.

00:38:00.000 Because everybody just wants to maximize right now.

00:38:03.000 So, Tucker, the same as everybody else, is I better claw my way up to this pile of corpses right now while I still have the chance.

00:38:11.000 But people are. 1.00

00:38:13.000 That's what Candace is doing.

00:38:14.000 Is to make Tucker look like the best in the age of information war.

00:38:20.000 That's a part of it.

00:38:20.000 I'm saying you have to maim, lie, cheat, steal to seize power now before it's too late.

00:38:27.000 Man, I've been thinking a lot about that lately.

00:38:29.000 That's what they're doing.

00:38:31.000 Like, that would indicate, like, violence.

00:38:33.000 Like, in my opinion, that would indicate, like, Like, not good, not good for our families and people.

00:38:38.000 What do you, what do you, what, Tucker, Tucker?

00:38:40.000 No, like, seizing power now before it's taken from you. 1.00

00:38:43.000 And it's like, I don't want to be the idiot that's like, let's just stay together, let's all get along. 0.99

00:38:47.000 And then all of a sudden, I get, everything gets burned. 0.99

00:38:49.000 I don't want that.

00:38:51.000 So at some point, I don't, I also don't want to instigate a war.

00:38:54.000 So let's, let's, let's talk about what I've been desperately waiting to talk about this whole time.

00:38:59.000 And that's Animal Farm.

00:39:00.000 But it, it is in line with what we were just talking about.

00:39:02.000 So previously in the other segment, for those that are just tuning in, Tucker Carlson, I'll show you, announced, That he's got 56.8 million views per episode, 10x his Fox News show.

00:39:13.000 Of course, that's not a one for one metric.

00:39:16.000 It makes no sense for him to compare those numbers.

00:39:18.000 And he's certainly not five to 20 times bigger than Joe Rogan.

00:39:20.000 However, he's saying these things.

00:39:22.000 He's apologizing for supporting Trump and not knowing that Miriam Adelson was pro Israel and that we go to war.

00:39:28.000 It's not, none of it's true.

00:39:30.000 Candace Owens is getting sued because she said crazy things.

00:39:32.000 Now we go to Animal Farm, where we have, how about this?

00:39:35.000 Riley Gaines promoting a film who's starred by a male who wants to be a female.

00:39:41.000 Who hates Riley Gaines and says Riley isn't doing this?

00:39:44.000 Like, how do you get Riley Gaines to promote the work of a trans person who hates you?

00:39:52.000 It just, the point is this Animal Farm, the film, is not the book and is nothing in any way related to the book.

00:39:59.000 Characters have similar names, but principal characters not in the book.

00:40:02.000 Conservatives across the board are taking cash money to promote a film that is explicitly anti capitalist.

00:40:10.000 So when we talk about Candace and Tucker, it's not unique to them.

00:40:13.000 You've got all of these people.

00:40:14.000 Here's Riley Gaines.

00:40:15.000 We'll show you, I'll break it down for you.

00:40:18.000 My husband and I got early access screening to Animal Farm, an animated adaptation of George Orwell's novel made by Angel Studios.

00:40:24.000 Incredibly well done.

00:40:25.000 They do a perfect job of reminding viewers that Marxism always has and always will fail.

00:40:29.000 Except Andy Serkis explicitly stated it's not about Stalinist Russia, it's about capitalism and overconsumption.

00:40:36.000 Did she not watch the movie?

00:40:37.000 She's just repeating that line, that lie that was put out by Angel Studios.

00:40:42.000 Here's who she's promoting Laverne Cox at the Animal Farm promo.

00:40:46.000 I'm not sure if it's the premiere or not saying this.

00:40:49.000 At the heart of every genocide is dehumanization.

00:40:53.000 That is the beginning.

00:40:55.000 And I know we're talking about animals here, but when we stop seeing our fellow citizens as human, then we can commit violence against them with impunity, take away their rights. 0.99

00:41:06.000 I think what we've seen over the past six years with trans people is a really good example of that.

00:41:12.000 It's clear that it's never been about sports. 1.00

00:41:14.000 It's never been about protecting women or children.

00:41:16.000 If they wanted to protect women and children, they would indict.

00:41:20.000 The Epstein people in the Epstein files, we know who they are, but they're not doing that.

00:41:25.000 So, that was all a pretext to scapegoat trans people to dehumanize us and put us in an excluded category so that we can take away our rights, legislate us out of existence.

00:41:39.000 You know, yeah, shout out to Laverne Cox doing a promo for the film Animal Farm.

00:41:43.000 And I'm just so grateful that Message was able to get out there with the help of Riley Gaines.

00:41:46.000 You see, the truth is, you've got Tucker Carlson in his latest episode promoting Animal Farm, you've got Riley Gaines.

00:41:54.000 Emily Saves America, Older Millennial, many people, Wall Street Mav and Josie the Redheaded Libertarian took down their promos.

00:42:00.000 I didn't see them, but I know that they both deleted them.

00:42:02.000 And Josie does work here, full disclosure.

00:42:05.000 People are willing to take money to promote anti capitalism and pro communism despite claiming to be on the other side of that.

00:42:13.000 Why?

00:42:14.000 The same reason Tucker is going to say, I'm tormented for supporting Trump, the same reason Candace is all of a sudden claiming wackaloon conspiracies.

00:42:22.000 All of these people have one thing on their mind how do I get money from this?

00:42:26.000 This is the nature of politics today.

00:42:29.000 Lie, cheat, steal, and get yours before the Titanic sinks.

00:42:33.000 Yeah, I think like there's this thing in conservative media where they just all they know about George Orwell is in 1984.

00:42:40.000 And so they just kind of like assume, well, this guy must be our guy.

00:42:43.000 And Orwell is like a very complicated figure.

00:42:46.000 And honestly, when you thumb through a lot of his politics, unless you have a good understanding of the context of the time, you're just not going to be able to parse through it.

00:42:53.000 Like he was simultaneously like a democratic socialist, like explicitly, but also like a very, he put a lot of emphasis on like English traditionalism.

00:43:01.000 So that's why I think it's really dangerous to try and apply his writings to anything that would resemble contemporary politics because it's just not comparable at all.

00:43:09.000 Orwell needs to be read, when you read Orwell, within the context of early 20th century political philosophy.

00:43:16.000 Otherwise, it's going to come off sloppy.

00:43:19.000 And this is what all the critics are pointing out this movie.

00:43:21.000 It's just not communicating at all what was in the initial book, nor does it reflect Orwell in any meaningful way.

00:43:28.000 And like I said, if you're going to turn Orwell into your conservative crusader, Okay, maybe on the traditional values outside of that, there's not really much overlap.

00:43:37.000 So, let's just not do this.

00:43:39.000 Yeah, I think it's also super weird that Riley Gaines, like Tim pointed out, is promoting this.

00:43:43.000 When Laverne Cox, who is one of the most famous trans people in Hollywood, is in this movie and very much like a, you know, outspoken activist, you would think that of all people, Riley Gaines, and I like Riley, I like a lot of her content, but you would think that she might be like, I don't know if I want to like put my name to this because it's hypocritical, really, at the end of the day to do that.

00:44:04.000 I haven't seen this movie.

00:44:06.000 We didn't get any of the testers, and we really don't want to spend our money on it.

00:44:10.000 So we haven't seen it yet.

00:44:12.000 We did think about doing a review over at Pop Culture Crisis, but.

00:44:16.000 Communism.

00:44:17.000 Yeah, I don't know if we're actually going to do that because I don't know if we can actually.

00:44:20.000 Well, I want to know where, how it fell apart because I've been a fan of Angel for a while.

00:44:24.000 You played the clip.

00:44:25.000 Oh, I got a clip for you guys.

00:44:27.000 Yeah, I mean, how about this clip right here?

00:44:28.000 You ready for this clip?

00:44:29.000 You ready?

00:44:31.000 Hey, where'd this come from?

00:44:32.000 It's leftovers.

00:44:33.000 It'll go to waste.

00:44:34.000 You should have this for all your hard work.

00:44:36.000 No, Thank you, but it's supposed to be shared equally.

00:44:42.000 There is no supposed to anymore, okay?

00:44:45.000 For example, I'm about to fart right now.

00:44:45.000 We're free.

00:44:52.000 This is the sound of freedom.

00:44:54.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:44:55.000 The sound of freedom is total crap. 1.00

00:44:58.000 The sound of freedom is just trash. 1.00

00:45:02.000 Sounds like art. 0.99

00:45:02.000 The sound of freedom is just a fart coming out of a book. 0.99

00:45:04.000 The sound of freedom.

00:45:05.000 Why does that sound familiar?

00:45:07.000 Weird.

00:45:07.000 Yeah, that was interesting.

00:45:08.000 To this point, the flagship movie from Angel, I think the best movie.

00:45:12.000 Oh, that's right.

00:45:13.000 And here's what.

00:45:14.000 They watched the movie.

00:45:14.000 Animal Farm film, one of the official accounts with Angel says.

00:45:18.000 The sound and smell of freedom.

00:45:21.000 Are they just intentionally attacking the guild?

00:45:25.000 When you're in business and you're running a company, sometimes you don't get down to the little idiosyncrasies of what everyone at the company is doing.

00:45:30.000 But like Harmons, you guys need to watch the movie before you take it.

00:45:36.000 No.

00:45:36.000 Why did they post this, bro?

00:45:37.000 I don't know.

00:45:38.000 That's what I'm asking.

00:45:40.000 It's funny they go, oops, they were intentionally mocking us, mocking the guild, and anyone who ever put money in this.

00:45:44.000 They're mocking anybody who ever promoted Sound of Freedom.

00:45:47.000 We raised $25,000 for Tim Ballard. 0.99

00:45:50.000 These people are scumbags. 0.99

00:45:53.000 I'm more and more pissed by this every day. 1.00

00:45:55.000 And these people have the gall to call me a pig. 0.98

00:45:57.000 I'm not kidding. 0.99

00:45:58.000 Angel Studios put out a promo where they said people like me are a loud minority trying to shut them down like the pigs. 0.99

00:46:05.000 Oof. 0.99

00:46:05.000 Yep. 0.99

00:46:06.000 They name you by name?

00:46:08.000 They highlight only.

00:46:10.000 Oh, Animal Farm.

00:46:12.000 No one wants us to be together.

00:46:14.000 They haven't even seen me.

00:46:15.000 They're judging a movie by its trailer, which is what trailers are for.

00:46:20.000 But still.

00:46:21.000 Like Chloe Rice 8272 said, Seth Rogen is probably the last person to come to mind to voice a character who's literally meant to resemble Stalin.

00:46:29.000 Resembles Lie.

00:46:31.000 Napoleon does not resemble Stalin in any way.

00:46:34.000 He's comic relief, as we've shown with The Fart.

00:46:36.000 Stalin was a serious, manipulative dictator who executed people and erased them from photographs. 0.86

00:46:41.000 Napoleon in the film is a sad pig who just wanted to fit in with humans and he got into credit card debt. 0.98

00:46:47.000 Not a joke. 0.82

00:46:49.000 He gets embarrassed that the humans make fun of him because he's walking on four legs.

00:46:53.000 That's his motivation for trying to stand up.

00:46:55.000 He doesn't like being made fun of.

00:46:57.000 Frieda Pilkington, Elon's mom, helps him get a credit card, but then he realizes he's trapped in credit card debt, so he sells the farm to her, not Stalin. 0.97

00:47:03.000 Stalin as a pig. 0.99

00:47:05.000 Seth Rogen is a perfect pig, Stalin. 1.00

00:47:08.000 People are saying I should have been rated R, full of blood, darkness, and despair. 0.97

00:47:13.000 At Huff UITV said, making animal farm kid friendly is dystopian.

00:47:18.000 It's a story about talking farm animals, it's read by kids in middle school.

00:47:22.000 George Orwell made it that way.

00:47:23.000 It's not like we're doing Schindler's List with farm animals.

00:47:27.000 It's Animal Farm.

00:47:28.000 And then at DustinMaddox9445 said, It is wild that Angel Studios would put out a pro communism movie that was adapted from an anti communism book.

00:47:38.000 But I hate communism.

00:47:40.000 Me too.

00:47:41.000 Didn't actually address anything in the film.

00:47:43.000 The Harmon brothers all canceled on us, refused to come on and debate the show.

00:47:46.000 Wouldn't get or couldn't get anybody from production to come on to the show.

00:47:49.000 Postponed, then canceled on us.

00:47:51.000 The film is explicitly anti capitalist as per the words of Andy Serkis himself.

00:47:56.000 And at Generically Entertaining said, They don't even need that windmill anymore.

00:48:00.000 Just hook up a generator to George Orwell's grave and he'd power the whole farm.

00:48:04.000 There is no windmill in the movie.

00:48:07.000 One of the most important elements of the book is the windmill and the battle to defend the windmill.

00:48:11.000 There's no windmill in the movie.

00:48:13.000 There's no old major and snowballs in it for 10 minutes.

00:48:15.000 It's not Animal Farm.

00:48:16.000 It's a different movie.

00:48:18.000 I, uh, very much I'm into forgiveness and people, you know, rectifying real things.

00:48:24.000 I'm not going to burn bridges with the guys.

00:48:26.000 I'm not going to burn bridges with angels.

00:48:28.000 No, most don't.

00:48:29.000 You pass the guild.

00:48:30.000 It's a loud minority trying to silence us. 1.00

00:48:33.000 Like the pigs. 1.00

00:48:34.000 Yeah, all of this is a loud minority, like the pigs. 1.00

00:48:38.000 How about this? 1.00

00:48:39.000 How about you put my tweets in your stupid promo? 1.00

00:48:41.000 They won't because they know. 1.00

00:48:43.000 They also.

00:48:44.000 Canceled likely because they knew if they sat down, I'd go.

00:48:47.000 Andy Serkis says this is about capitalism, not communism.

00:48:49.000 What say you?

00:48:50.000 Well, Andy Serkis, the director of the film, is wrong.

00:48:53.000 No, they're just lying.

00:48:54.000 This was a lie.

00:48:55.000 I just wanted families, including kids, to understand why communism is bad.

00:48:59.000 Is that so wrong?

00:49:00.000 They'll never let us be together because of Seth.

00:49:03.000 They are tricking conservatives into bringing their children to a movie that tells them capitalism is bad because they're telling the parents about communism, hoping the parents don't pay much attention, and the kids go in and learn about how private equity.

00:49:16.000 Debt financing are all bad.

00:49:17.000 Big banks are bad.

00:49:18.000 And by all means, you can criticize all those things.

00:49:20.000 People aren't happy with big financial institutions, but it's not an anti communism movie.

00:49:24.000 Because of Seth Broken.

00:49:26.000 So I guess we just won't release you to the world.

00:49:28.000 I'll disappear.

00:49:31.000 Was Angel Studios an op the whole time?

00:49:33.000 I was just wondering.

00:49:34.000 It seems like almost too.

00:49:36.000 You know, Sound of Freedom was a marketing campaign, right?

00:49:39.000 For Angel Studios.

00:49:40.000 Sound of Freedom was promoted because, well, there's a company claiming this, that they went to a bunch of influencers and paid them money.

00:49:47.000 To claim Sound of Freedom is being censored and it's got to be promoted.

00:49:51.000 And I should figure out which company that was.

00:49:52.000 I'm going to look it up.

00:49:54.000 We saw Sound of Freedom because we liked the film, because it was powerful, had these people on, promoted them, promoted Tim Ballard, and then raised $25,000 for them.

00:50:03.000 And now I feel like it was a scam the whole time, like they were tricking us.

00:50:08.000 I'm not getting that vibe.

00:50:09.000 I think this is like, because they wanted, they were like, we should go on, they were behind it.

00:50:13.000 They were like, we're going to come on the show and stand behind our message, which indicates they really believed.

00:50:23.000 If this is what they like, whoa, Okay?

00:50:50.000 He said it before we were supposed to have our debate.

00:50:52.000 He said it before they made this fake promo claiming it's anti communism.

00:50:56.000 Why?

00:50:57.000 Because it is about anti capitalism movies.

00:51:00.000 No, no, no.

00:51:00.000 Communism.

00:51:01.000 They said communism in their promo.

00:51:03.000 Angel Students made a promo saying it's about communism.

00:51:05.000 It's not.

00:51:06.000 Andy Serkis said it's not.

00:51:08.000 Every interview going back to December said it's not.

00:51:11.000 Why are they lying?

00:51:13.000 Because probably because they invested $16 million into it and they need to make a profit.

00:51:20.000 Indeed, they are contractually obligated to promote the film.

00:51:23.000 They're a publicly traded company, so they have to push communist content.

00:51:26.000 They bought it, and they're going to lie if that's what they have to do.

00:51:29.000 They're contractually obligated to lie.

00:51:31.000 Yeah, they have to.

00:51:32.000 Or they'll get sued.

00:51:33.000 In the United States, publicly traded companies must push profit motive.

00:51:36.000 That's why they launched B Corpse in some circumstances.

00:51:39.000 They cannot come out and cause financial harm to their own product because they're publicly traded.

00:51:42.000 They'll get sued by their shareholders.

00:51:45.000 That means they will continually lie to the guild.

00:51:48.000 And you know what's funny is there have been people trying to.

00:51:51.000 Asking, like, hey, are you if you're a guild member of Angel Studios, did you actually vote for this?

00:51:55.000 I've not seen anybody say they did.

00:51:57.000 I've seen people say we were asked if we wanted Animal Farm as a film and said yes, but never that trailer or this version of it.

00:52:03.000 Yeah, well, because they would have been like, hey, we want to present this sort of anti communist messaging.

00:52:07.000 And everyone's like, yeah, it's like, so we got Andy Serkis, Seth Rogen's ready.

00:52:12.000 Well, this is not really who I had in mind for maybe pushing the anti communism line here.

00:52:12.000 Oh, okay.

00:52:17.000 Yeah, you didn't think Laverne Cox was going to come in and do like a big anti communism push.

00:52:22.000 Well, okay, maybe it's the right stories.

00:52:23.000 What story?

00:52:24.000 Oh, it was written by this guy that fought for Republican Spain.

00:52:27.000 Oh, okay.

00:52:27.000 Well, it's like, what are we doing here?

00:52:29.000 What's going on?

00:52:30.000 I mean, to be fair for Angel, it isn't just Sound of Freedom.

00:52:34.000 They did Live Not by Lies with Rod Dre.

00:52:37.000 They've done a lot of other good conservative content.

00:52:40.000 Yeah, they have.

00:52:40.000 I don't think that this was like, I don't know where the.

00:52:44.000 So, one of the main things, and I've been hearing Seth Rogen and Andy Serkis talk about it being anti capitalist, which is really alarming to me.

00:52:56.000 I'd often heard the angel line pushed.

00:52:59.000 Where do you see in the movie?

00:53:01.000 I mean, Tim, you've seen it.

00:53:03.000 You know better than the rest of us.

00:53:05.000 Like, they took the windmill out.

00:53:07.000 It sounds like there's a lot of liberties.

00:53:10.000 Well, it's not Animal Farm in any way.

00:53:12.000 Okay.

00:53:12.000 Yeah.

00:53:13.000 Animal farm.

00:53:14.000 The animals are mistreated by the farmer. 0.60

00:53:16.000 He's a drunk.

00:53:17.000 So they, so they, Old Major tells them a story of how you can live better.

00:53:22.000 We can all support ourselves.

00:53:23.000 We don't need the farmer anymore.

00:53:25.000 They decide to stage a revolution. 0.96

00:53:27.000 They then all work together, but the pigs are smart, slowly take over and amass more power. 0.85

00:53:31.000 Snowball, who's wounded in the great battle, is a hero. 0.83

00:53:36.000 Napoleon changes the narrative, manipulates everybody, takes puppies away from the dogs to raise them to be his guard dogs.

00:53:43.000 When the chicken, Steals the eggs and the chickens and then executes them for complaining.

00:53:47.000 When Boxer gets injured doing work, he sells them off for glue.

00:53:51.000 Napoleon is described as with gravity but a very few words.

00:53:56.000 The movie, Animal Farm, the film, which we should even call Animal Farm, is a bunch of happy animals live on a farm, but Farmer Jones can't afford to pay his mortgage.

00:54:04.000 The bank is foreclosing on the farm, and Frieda Pilkington buys the assets to pay off some of the debt to acquire it.

00:54:10.000 The animals realize they're about to go to a slaughterhouse and attack Frieda Pilkington's employees.

00:54:15.000 The banker says, We don't care.

00:54:17.000 You owe us money.

00:54:18.000 We're going to give you X amount of time, like a week or whatever, to make up the mortgage.

00:54:22.000 Otherwise, we're coming back and someone else will buy it.

00:54:24.000 So the animals all work together and sell eggs and give horse rides and sell milk.

00:54:29.000 Then the pigs go to the banker and say, Here's the mortgage.

00:54:32.000 The banker takes only a piece of the money and gives the rest back, saying, The rest is yours. 0.97

00:54:36.000 This is your mortgage.

00:54:37.000 I'll be back next month.

00:54:38.000 The pigs go, What do we do with the extra money?

00:54:41.000 Let's go shopping. 0.98

00:54:42.000 So they go to the mall. 0.58

00:54:43.000 The animals get mad because they're doing all the work, but the pigs are getting all the profit.

00:54:46.000 The pigs, then at the ball, Napoleon gets embarrassed because he's walking around and the humans laugh at him.

00:54:52.000 He wants to be like them because they're being mean to him. 0.93

00:54:54.000 Frieda Pilkington gets him a credit card so he can buy a car and buy clothes.

00:54:58.000 He doesn't realize that the credit card is debt you got to keep paying off, gets angry, saying, How am I supposed to come up with magic paper to pay for all these things every single month?

00:55:07.000 And Frieda Pilkington says, I'll acquire the farm from you, build a hydroelectric dam, and give you a cash payout.

00:55:12.000 We'll liquidate the animals for cash.

00:55:15.000 During the construction, one of the employees gets injured and Boxer struggles to lift a crane.

00:55:19.000 Off of the injured employee who struggles to get out from underneath it before being crushed, and he breaks his leg in the process.

00:55:26.000 They sell him for glue.

00:55:27.000 I don't know if the message is there because it's not really about being the hard, industrious worker who's injured on the job.

00:55:33.000 The original message of Boxer was that he was a hard worker in a factory who got injured on the job in the factory, and instead of getting rewarded by communism, was killed.

00:55:41.000 Boxer is just valiantly trying to save one of the employees, and then they sell him.

00:55:46.000 But he was selling all of the animals anyway.

00:55:48.000 So the animals then decide in Act Three.

00:55:51.000 We need to have a revolution.

00:55:53.000 For the first time, the animals decided to have a revolution.

00:55:55.000 They didn't revolt against Farmer Jones.

00:55:57.000 He was chased off by the employees and the bank kicked him out.

00:56:01.000 So they plant explosives in the hydroelectric dam, blowing it up, killing all of our employees.

00:56:05.000 And then Lucky, the new character, swims out of the water up to the other animals and says, We should all work together because we want to, not because we have to.

00:56:12.000 The camera pans up to the sky and it says the end.

00:56:14.000 No joke.

00:56:15.000 That's literally the end.

00:56:15.000 The book is about post revolution.

00:56:19.000 The whole book is.

00:56:19.000 This is all pre revolution.

00:56:21.000 The book is effectively a prequel to Animal Farm in essence.

00:56:25.000 And some have actually made the suggestion, which would be interesting if.

00:56:30.000 At the end, Lucky says, We should all work because we want to, not because we have to.

00:56:36.000 And then he had an evil looking grin.

00:56:38.000 And the implication was he's going to become Napoleon.

00:56:41.000 Maybe there'd be something there.

00:56:43.000 But the fact that the revolution only happens at the end of the movie and they massacre a bunch of corporate employees to do it, they're two completely different scripts, completely unrelated.

00:56:54.000 I thought it was kind of in that clip with that guy that looks like Will Ferrell that tries to act like Will Ferrell.

00:56:59.000 No shade, dude.

00:57:00.000 I don't know who you are, but.

00:57:01.000 Your acting styles are a little sus.

00:57:03.000 No, that's a guy that looks like Will Ferrell that gets cast on cheap internet commercials because he's really.

00:57:03.000 Is that not him?

00:57:07.000 That's hilarious. 0.99

00:57:10.000 Imagine being no fucking guy. 0.99

00:57:11.000 I mean, he probably makes a lot of money. 0.99

00:57:12.000 Tenth of the funniness of Will Ferrell, by the way.

00:57:15.000 They said that the book is about talking animals.

00:57:17.000 The book was never about a communist revolution.

00:57:21.000 There happened to be talking animals because he didn't want to make humans for whatever reason.

00:57:25.000 He anthropomorphized.

00:57:26.000 But hey, humans are animals too.

00:57:28.000 And the book was not about that.

00:57:30.000 It wasn't a comedy.

00:57:31.000 It never was meant to be a comedy.

00:57:32.000 It's deadly serious about the danger of communist revolutions.

00:57:36.000 So, I don't mean this in any way disrespectfully to Epic.

00:57:40.000 I'm not sure if they are the only ones who worked on it.

00:57:44.000 But Sound of Freedom was not an organic, good film that everybody noticed and it went viral.

00:57:52.000 It was a marketing campaign where marketing companies went to prominent conservative personalities and said, We will pay you to promote this.

00:58:00.000 We never got paid for any of this.

00:58:02.000 This is Epic Inc. case study Sound of Freedom from shelved project to box office breakthrough after years of being shelved.

00:58:09.000 Facing media resistance and entering a crowded release window over the 4th of July, Sign of Freedom needed a campaign that could break through in a big way.

00:58:15.000 Epic helped set that stage, developing the messaging, aligning the talent, logistics, managing risk, and securing press across secular, faith based, and conservative outlets.

00:58:23.000 The result was a triumph, one of the most successful indie films ever.

00:58:26.000 Now, marketing is marketing.

00:58:27.000 Everyone's going to do a marketing campaign.

00:58:29.000 I just think it's important to note since the beginning, it was not like a group of people fighting a culture war rose up, everyone banded together, and staged a revolution against Hollywood.

00:58:38.000 It was a marketing company paying conservatives to say that.

00:58:41.000 And then everyone promoted the film.

00:58:43.000 We were not involved in any of that.

00:58:44.000 We promoted the film out of a genuine interest, and we raised $25,000 for Tim Ballard and his organization.

00:58:50.000 But I'm glad we could have been a secondary effect to their marketing campaign.

00:58:54.000 And you know what really, really bothers me?

00:58:57.000 I'm finding out that we are the only real company that exists in the space.

00:59:00.000 I'm not saying that, like, I'm being hyperbolic.

00:59:03.000 But speaking with some, I was talking to a political consultant recently who said to me, like, Tim, you do realize that.

00:59:13.000 A lot of these political personalities on X, they get paid like $50,000 per post.

00:59:18.000 They'll, like, a company will come to them and say, We have a new administration official that we need to get through the Senate.

00:59:24.000 We'll pay you $50,000 from now until confirmation to post a couple times per week arguing why this person needs to be in the administration.

00:59:33.000 And that's, I don't want to say most, but a lot of the high profile personalities you see on left and right, they don't actually care.

00:59:41.000 Why won't liberals come on the show? 0.98

00:59:43.000 They're just goons. 0.99

00:59:44.000 They're, they're, they're, they're, they amassed followers through nonsense. 0.97

00:59:47.000 Then the Democratic Party and PACs go to them and say, okay, here's a list of candidates we want.

00:59:52.000 100 grand if you promote this guy, 50 if you promote this guy, and they'll go, I'll promote them all.

00:59:56.000 So then when I say, why don't we debate your argument, these people are going, I don't have an argument.

01:00:00.000 I just wanted 100 grand.

01:00:02.000 So then conservatives are doing the exact same thing.

01:00:04.000 All fake.

01:00:06.000 Conservatives, a lot of these companies, man, and we don't get any money for it.

01:00:10.000 And I'm sitting here being like, we could charge every single person who comes on IRL $10,000.

01:00:16.000 The show would be funded just by people who want to appear on the show because I have followers.

01:00:19.000 And we don't do that.

01:00:20.000 We actually pay for their travel. 1.00

01:00:22.000 Suckers. 1.00

01:00:23.000 We're suckers. 0.99

01:00:25.000 There it is. 0.96

01:00:26.000 There it is.

01:00:26.000 I have a hard time promoting things that I don't believe in or that I don't understand.

01:00:31.000 You should have a hard time doing that.

01:00:33.000 Yeah, apparently we're the only show in the business that does that.

01:00:36.000 I used to do commercials in Hollywood, man. 0.98

01:00:38.000 I felt like a prostitute. 0.99

01:00:38.000 It was the dirtiest. 0.99

01:00:40.000 It was so.

01:00:41.000 And I understand if you're starving and you need money, the things you'd be willing to do, I get that.

01:00:45.000 But for Riley and her husband to promote it, I don't know.

01:00:47.000 I don't know you, Riley.

01:00:49.000 I don't know your level of intellect.

01:00:50.000 I don't know if you saw the movie.

01:00:51.000 I don't know if you understood the movie.

01:00:52.000 But did you need the money?

01:00:54.000 Can we just.

01:00:55.000 Just believe in the book or what?

01:00:57.000 The fact that Laverne Cox is one of the top billed actors on the film, outright saying at the premiere or at a premiere, it's never about sports, it's about taking away our rights.

01:01:10.000 And Riley Gaines took money to promote that film is just icing on the cake of the conservative.

01:01:17.000 And I don't want to rag out conservative specifically, it's the grift, it's the social media grift.

01:01:21.000 A bunch of these anti Israel people were all promoting sports gambling in Indonesia or something.

01:01:26.000 You remember that one?

01:01:27.000 Yeah.

01:01:28.000 There was some like Malaysian casino website, and they were all spam blasting it out there. 1.00

01:01:33.000 I hope the money was worth it, morons. 1.00

01:01:36.000 Yeah, and I think people are doubling down too. 1.00

01:01:38.000 I just saw the older millennial like doubled down on his take on the movie.

01:01:43.000 Really?

01:01:44.000 Yeah, yeah, we just got it in Slack actually.

01:01:46.000 They name you.

01:01:47.000 He names you. 1.00

01:01:48.000 I called him a scumbag. 1.00

01:01:50.000 Yeah, he names you directly. 0.99

01:01:51.000 So he did respond, but he's doubling down and still saying the movie wasn't bad.

01:01:57.000 Like, crony capitalism.

01:02:00.000 Crony capitalism.

01:02:02.000 Lay it on me, brother. 1.00

01:02:03.000 I called him a scum. 0.99

01:02:04.000 Tim Poole did a review and he said it's not anti communist anymore. 0.99

01:02:07.000 Now it's anti capitalist.

01:02:08.000 And look, I got no beef with Tim Poole.

01:02:10.000 Love the guy.

01:02:11.000 Been on his show.

01:02:12.000 Wonderful person. 0.98

01:02:13.000 But he's fucking wrong. 0.95

01:02:14.000 This movie is not anti capitalist. 0.97

01:02:17.000 It does not invert Orwell's thinking.

01:02:19.000 Now, I will say it is not a shot for shot remake of Orwell's novel because when Orwell wrote that, the danger was communism.

01:02:27.000 And the solution.

01:02:28.000 Look at this.

01:02:28.000 Wait, first, you said it was anti Marxist.

01:02:31.000 Then people told you it was really pro Marxism.

01:02:33.000 Now you're saying capitalism is the real problem.

01:02:35.000 It was capitalism.

01:02:36.000 Look at that.

01:02:36.000 But let's be real.

01:02:37.000 Love the guy, been on his show, wonderful person, but he's fucking wrong. 0.70

01:02:41.000 This movie is not anti capitalist.

01:02:44.000 It does not invert Orwell's thinking.

01:02:46.000 Now, I will say it is not a shot for shot remake of Orwell's novel because when Orwell wrote that, the danger was communism and the solution was capitalism.

01:02:55.000 But let's be real about this, guys.

01:02:57.000 We are not in danger of falling to communism.

01:02:59.000 But what we're living in is.

01:03:00.000 We're not.

01:03:02.000 Really?

01:03:03.000 That's news to me.

01:03:04.000 We are living in. 0.99

01:03:05.000 In a bullshit version of crony capitalism, where we are run by corporations. 0.99

01:03:09.000 I think it can't be legitimately this country. 0.98

01:03:12.000 Well, because that's why I'm here with Zoran, is because Zoran is so explicitly capitalist.

01:03:17.000 He really is.

01:03:17.000 It's like Nazi.

01:03:18.000 He's for the people.

01:03:19.000 Zoran cutting all these business regulations.

01:03:21.000 I mean, didn't she care?

01:03:22.000 Creating government grocery stores. 1.00

01:03:24.000 That's so capitalist.

01:03:25.000 Do you agree with Jen Griffin?

01:03:26.000 Unbelievable. 1.00

01:03:27.000 Free penthouses for the rich.

01:03:29.000 I mean, it's just.

01:03:29.000 It hasn't been a republic since 1913.

01:03:31.000 Since we handed control of this country and its currency and everything else over to big banks.

01:03:37.000 And that's.

01:03:38.000 What this is addressing.

01:03:39.000 And here's the thing if you're opposed to communism, I'm 100% on your side.

01:03:43.000 But if you're in favor of the version of capitalism we're currently under, I think you're either.

01:03:48.000 He's literally now attacking capitalism.

01:03:50.000 Line.

01:03:51.000 Literally. 1.00

01:03:51.000 We're a fucking idiot. 1.00

01:03:52.000 And I think Andy Serkis did a great job of addressing that. 1.00

01:03:55.000 Oh, he did a great job.

01:03:56.000 They did fight against communism. 1.00

01:03:58.000 And they did beat the idiot. 1.00

01:03:59.000 Bro, these people are all for sale, bro. 1.00

01:04:01.000 Okay, older millennial, I'll give you $5,000.

01:04:03.000 I'll give you $5,000 to post the opposite.

01:04:05.000 How's that sound?

01:04:06.000 I'm not going to argue with you.

01:04:08.000 I'm not going to argue with you.

01:04:10.000 I'll just give you five grand to make a video where you're like, you know what, Tim Pool was right about everything.

01:04:14.000 Deal?

01:04:14.000 Yeah.

01:04:15.000 Let's go.

01:04:16.000 But then they also addressed the fact that we're not living under the type of capitalism that Orwell imagined.

01:04:22.000 We do not have the freedom.

01:04:24.000 That Warbuck was thinking we were going to have.

01:04:26.000 All of you know this. 0.99

01:04:28.000 And I'm sorry, but he told us an inverted way.

01:04:31.000 Literally, you know this.

01:04:32.000 Guys, I think we've covered the dangers of communism. 0.89

01:04:36.000 I think anybody with power brings you look at communism and go, that's when people speak of what also is the bullshit version of capitalism that we're currently saddled with. 0.85

01:04:46.000 He is twisting himself into knots to justify this movie. 0.90

01:04:50.000 The argument is this, brother.

01:04:52.000 We have very few traditional stories attacking communism.

01:04:57.000 Everything we have attacks fascism and in the modern era, capitalism.

01:05:01.000 We don't need to take one of the few stories that criticizes communism and turn it into a story about capitalism.

01:05:07.000 End of story.

01:05:08.000 And yes, we are at risk of communists trying to take over.

01:05:11.000 You can call them neo-communists or techno-communists, but that is literally what most of us have been fighting for the past 10 years.

01:05:17.000 I hope the money was worth it, brother, but I'll tell you what, I got more and I can pay you more and more consistently to promote the opposite.

01:05:24.000 So let's go, bro.

01:05:25.000 Literally right now, I'm telling you, make a video and just go, you know what, man?

01:05:29.000 Tim Poole was right about everything.

01:05:31.000 I was wrong.

01:05:32.000 I apologize.

01:05:33.000 I'll write you a check for five grand.

01:05:35.000 Considering you're for sale, five grand is probably a good amount.

01:05:38.000 Oh, it's crazy.

01:05:39.000 He's taking the rare third way where Circus and Rogan are like, this is explicitly anti capitalist.

01:05:45.000 And then Angel Studios is like, it's actually anti communist.

01:05:47.000 And he comes out of nowhere with like the fresh.

01:05:49.000 It's actually anti crony capitalism.

01:05:51.000 And the banks are the problem.

01:05:53.000 It's like, well, thank you, DSA.

01:05:54.000 To be fair, Angel Studios first tried that.

01:05:58.000 It didn't work.

01:05:59.000 Yeah.

01:05:59.000 They said, it's, when people said, why is it about capitalism?

01:06:03.000 Angel Studios went, well, it's anti cronyism.

01:06:06.000 It's anti totalitarian.

01:06:08.000 It's literally not anti totalitarian.

01:06:11.000 If the government makes not a single appearance as a conflict in this film, not even one time.

01:06:16.000 If Angel Studios has a legal responsibility to increase profits for its shareholders and it lies in its promotion and ends up ruining the profit of the movie because it hurts it more than it helps it, is it then in violation of, like, does it then violate its?

01:06:34.000 Responsibility?

01:06:35.000 Like, can they be sued by their shareholders for lying about a product?

01:06:39.000 So, right, if this ends up causing their stock to decline and the movie bombs, they can be sued by their shareholders.

01:06:45.000 So it's like they're putting money into the promotion of it, but if you put lies into the promotion, you might get sued back below the price.

01:06:51.000 If you're a shareholder, you'd have the argument to say their subscription base is explicitly anti communist, conservative, right wing, pro capitalist.

01:07:00.000 By putting out this film, it caused a loss of revenue and.

01:07:04.000 The movie is already doing miserably.

01:07:06.000 I mean, the critic score is really bad.

01:07:07.000 We're not big fans of the critic score.

01:07:09.000 But when even communists are attacking it, IGN, however, gave it a 7 out of 10.

01:07:13.000 But independent creators, YouTube reviews with millions of subscribers are saying it's just a bad movie in general.

01:07:19.000 If this movie bombs and does poorly, then yeah, they're going to say, you lied about the film.

01:07:27.000 Your advertising campaign backfired.

01:07:29.000 You cost us money.

01:07:30.000 And, you know, that could be.

01:07:32.000 We'll see.

01:07:33.000 Definitely got to find out.

01:07:35.000 After looking up the Rotten Tomatoes.

01:07:36.000 I am doing that right now.

01:07:37.000 We've been doing a series on PCC when it's just Brett and I where we watch the worst movies ever made and then review them.

01:07:43.000 This might have to actually be on the list now if it gets that bad of an audience score.

01:07:47.000 I'd have to add it.

01:07:49.000 24% on Rotten Tomatoes.

01:07:51.000 You know what I think?

01:07:52.000 According to that, Homeboy got paid to promote a movie he didn't watch.

01:07:56.000 Then he saw the backlash.

01:07:58.000 Wall Street Mav deleted his tweet or their tweet.

01:08:01.000 I don't know if it's a man or a woman.

01:08:02.000 I'm assuming it's a guy.

01:08:03.000 Got backlash. 1.00

01:08:05.000 Riley Gaines probably just ignored it and didn't even think twice, just took the money. 0.98

01:08:09.000 I think the same thing for Emily Saves America.

01:08:11.000 This guy is getting a bunch of heat for it, so he decides to double down.

01:08:15.000 I wonder if they paid him extra because this post has Animal Farm Partner in it as well.

01:08:20.000 Oh.

01:08:21.000 Yeah, man. 0.99

01:08:23.000 I want to say this too, because I've had people say, Tim, it's just a dumb movie. 0.96

01:08:28.000 Why are you mad? 0.89

01:08:29.000 I don't care about the movie.

01:08:30.000 I care about the fact that there's almost nobody of honor anywhere in politics.

01:08:36.000 And I've been operating under the presumption there have been some.

01:08:40.000 And when you find out that many of them never had honor in the first place, it makes you angry.

01:08:44.000 So that's largely it.

01:08:46.000 Not that I think, I put it this way tendencies on the right, generalities on the left. 0.99

01:08:50.000 Most liberals suck. 0.99

01:08:51.000 Some of them are okay. 1.00

01:08:52.000 I like Rokana, he's all right, but I disagree with him.

01:08:54.000 John Fetterman, he says one thing and votes another way, but he's not a crazy guy in the way that many of these lefties are.

01:09:02.000 Then on the conservative side, you have a lot of crony, deep state kind of shills, and a little bit more, maybe 10 good Republicans, right? 0.98

01:09:11.000 Well, when you find out a lot of these people who are claiming to be fighting the good fight were just shills the whole time and are effectively the modern version of gay for pay, then it's disheartening. 1.00

01:09:23.000 It's disheartening. 0.97

01:09:24.000 It's hard to describe people's intellect, but low.

01:09:27.000 Not genius level intelligence.

01:09:29.000 These people are not genius level intelligence, unfortunately.

01:09:31.000 I'm not saying this about everybody, but they don't see the third or fourth level of what's going on.

01:09:38.000 They just see maybe two or three levels of it.

01:09:41.000 And then so they don't know.

01:09:45.000 Probably a lot of these people didn't understand the value of Animal Farm, the book.

01:09:48.000 Yeah.

01:09:49.000 It can't be understated how complex understanding socialism and communism actually is.

01:09:56.000 I really had to read a lot of books just to figure out what exactly is the goal for these people?

01:10:01.000 Why do they do this?

01:10:02.000 And it's all about power.

01:10:04.000 But, like, if you don't look into the history and really understand how every time it's tried, it fails, it's tough to grasp.

01:10:13.000 A lot of people don't understand what's going on in Animal Farm and, like, why the book was written.

01:10:13.000 I feel like you're right.

01:10:20.000 Well, it's not a children's book, right?

01:10:22.000 Like, it is complex.

01:10:24.000 So, making it into a children's movie is actually kind of crazy because these are not concepts that children can understand.

01:10:30.000 There's a reason you don't learn about it until you're high school or older.

01:10:33.000 The concepts are really hard to grasp.

01:10:36.000 I love how Older Millennial all of a sudden changed.

01:10:39.000 His opinion has changed.

01:10:41.000 He said before that it was anti, let me go back to his post, that it was anti Marxism.

01:10:47.000 And now, oh, here's his original.

01:10:49.000 Yeah, okay.

01:10:50.000 Another banger.

01:10:51.000 Like, I'm sure most of you read this masterpiece from Orwell back when you were in high school.

01:10:55.000 And I got to say, when I first heard Angel Studios was doing this, I was like, wow, even as a cartoon, this is going to be bleak. 0.99

01:11:02.000 Because the book is bleak as fuck. 0.99

01:11:05.000 Anyone who's read it is like, oof. 1.00

01:11:07.000 That's some serious material.

01:11:08.000 Thankfully, Angel Studios has made it a little more fun.

01:11:12.000 This is not the 1954 adaptation.

01:11:15.000 They didn't make the movie in their own words.

01:11:17.000 They acquired distribution.

01:11:18.000 This is a family friendly, actually enjoyable version of a very bleak movie.

01:11:23.000 It's not supposed to be enjoyable.

01:11:24.000 I know.

01:11:25.000 If you have no idea what this is, I highly recommend you read the book. 0.99

01:11:28.000 I mean, I recommend you watch the movie too, but everybody should read this fucking book. 0.97

01:11:33.000 It's up there with 1984. 1.00

01:11:35.000 Like, read the damn thing. 0.99

01:11:36.000 Same guy. 0.99

01:11:36.000 But Angel Studios made a version that I think both adults and children can enjoy. 0.99

01:11:41.000 While also being educated.

01:11:42.000 Because the meaning behind it is something that has become so unbelievably clouded in our society today.

01:11:48.000 The dangers of Marxism.

01:11:51.000 Are you flawed?

01:11:51.000 Corrupting power.

01:11:52.000 Not a single, single instance of Marxism in the whole movie.

01:11:58.000 Not a single instance.

01:12:00.000 Old Major in the book, who represents Leninist Marxism, is not in the film.

01:12:05.000 Bro, you never watched it, and I doubt you even read Animal Farm.

01:12:09.000 He didn't read Animal Farm if he doesn't know what the characters represented.

01:12:11.000 Like, I read it in high school.

01:12:13.000 But then he's coming out and being like, Watching all the right lose their minds because someone dared to also criticize BS crony capitalism.

01:12:20.000 I thought you just said it was about the dangers of Marxism, which is not in the film.

01:12:24.000 And if you watched the film, you'd know that unless you didn't know what Marxism is.

01:12:27.000 So, one of two options you did watch the movie, but you don't know what Marxism is, or you didn't watch the movie and either you do or don't know what Marxism is.

01:12:35.000 You don't know what Marxism is either way.

01:12:36.000 Let me help everybody.

01:12:37.000 Marxism is oppressed versus oppressor.

01:12:40.000 Critical theory by Marx talks about how there is an elite class with money that oppresses the working class who have none.

01:12:46.000 From this, we got the modern version of critical race theory, where these writers, like, was it Derek Bell?

01:12:53.000 Was that his name?

01:12:55.000 One of them.

01:12:56.000 One of them.

01:12:56.000 Yeah.

01:12:57.000 And Kimberly Crenshaw was the principal writer.

01:13:00.000 Yeah, that's correct.

01:13:01.000 The argument they made was that Marx missed the oppressed versus oppressors as it applies to diverse cultures or a country like the United States, where there's white oppressors and the black oppressed. 0.98

01:13:11.000 That created the modern version of woke, weird garbage DEI that we see today. 0.92

01:13:15.000 So we're quite literally at risk of communists and Marxists. 0.99

01:13:19.000 And we call it gay race communism or gay race Marxism getting involved. 0.93

01:13:23.000 There is not a single issue in the film where they say something like pigs are privileged or sheep are privileged. 0.94

01:13:30.000 There's not one instance where they may, if in the movie the pigs started saying things like, well, the reason we can't give the boxer money is because look how big he is.

01:13:41.000 He has so much strength privilege, it wouldn't be fair to give him food compared to the chickens who are just so small.

01:13:47.000 So, because of that, we're going to separate you.

01:13:49.000 And we're going to give you only what we think you need. 0.95

01:13:51.000 And then the pigs go buy things for themselves. 0.92

01:13:53.000 Then I'd be like, wow, that was going after Marxism right there. 0.67

01:13:56.000 Didn't happen, not a single time.

01:13:58.000 The pigs just spend the profit, get in credit card debt, and then sell the farm.

01:14:03.000 That's it.

01:14:05.000 Literally, he holds up a credit card.

01:14:06.000 He goes, I didn't even have to give a magic paper.

01:14:08.000 This card got me everything.

01:14:09.000 Then the next scene, he's in the house and he's all angry and he's stomping.

01:14:12.000 He's like, well, they never told me I needed magic paper every month because of this card.

01:14:16.000 How am I supposed to get some?

01:14:17.000 And then he falls back and he's all angry.

01:14:19.000 And then Frida Pilkington calls and he's like, let's cut a private equity deal. 0.94

01:14:24.000 So, they're all scammers and grifters and liars, and it's all fake, and no one actually has any real opinions. 0.98

01:14:30.000 I think the corporate ethos of maximized profits is sick and twisted, also. 0.99

01:14:30.000 They just want money. 0.99

01:14:37.000 It has to be.

01:14:38.000 Well, it has been for a while now.

01:14:40.000 No, but it has to exist that way.

01:14:42.000 Yeah, because that's how the system works.

01:14:46.000 A company is like an asset, and when you buy into it, it needs to reward its shareholders.

01:14:52.000 It's an engine of capitalism, and it's a good engine of capitalism, so long as the company is above board.

01:14:57.000 And doesn't lie about the nature of its products in order to sell more of them.

01:15:01.000 And we have laws to prevent that.

01:15:04.000 So, yeah, I mean, I do think the system has failures, but that specifically is not one of them.

01:15:10.000 But people generally lie to promote things.

01:15:14.000 Imagine this.

01:15:14.000 Profit.

01:15:14.000 They're willing to.

01:15:16.000 Yes, and many of them are held accountable in court.

01:15:18.000 Let me break it down for you.

01:15:19.000 Like Pfizer.

01:15:20.000 The purpose of a publicly traded company in its core essence is I have a company that needs investment so that we can grow the company, make new products.

01:15:29.000 Generally, sustain the health and it produces jobs.

01:15:31.000 It's good for the economy.

01:15:32.000 So, I want to ask the public to buy shares.

01:15:35.000 They will hold, they can trade for value at any point, and they get dividends.

01:15:38.000 And then I get the cash, the capital I need right now to say, build a new facility. 0.53

01:15:43.000 The government says, hold on there, gosh darn minute.

01:15:45.000 We want to make sure you're not lying to people and defrauding them with fake claims about your company. 0.92

01:15:50.000 So you got to go through some regulations.

01:15:52.000 So the company says, we made a million bucks last year.

01:15:54.000 If we can build a new facility for $300,000, we'll make $2 million next year.

01:15:58.000 And the government says, prove it.

01:16:00.000 They submit a regulatory filing.

01:16:02.000 SEC goes through it and says, this is legitimate.

01:16:04.000 The company can then go to the public and say, this is certified, it's good, we're not lying.

01:16:09.000 This is what we think will happen.

01:16:11.000 Every investment has risks and we may fail, but with your help, we can try and double our revenue.

01:16:15.000 The reason why you're legally obligated to make profit is that someone could come in and say, sell everything and bankrupt the company, and then we'll get rich.

01:16:24.000 Then the shareholders say, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.

01:16:26.000 We gave you this money to build a building.

01:16:28.000 Instead, you sold off your printers, the fax machines, the phones, enriched yourself with a bonus, and the company went bankrupt, and now we have nothing.

01:16:35.000 So maybe it would be smarter to increase profit, or if the goal was to make a certain amount of profit minimum, but not Maximize profit because that means you're willing to torch your bottom of the economy.

01:16:45.000 No, no, see, the problem is if you don't maximize profit, what do you do?

01:16:49.000 No, stop.

01:16:50.000 What was the question?

01:16:51.000 Maximize.

01:16:52.000 Maximize profit.

01:16:53.000 No, no, they are not required.

01:16:55.000 They are not required to do what you are saying.

01:16:55.000 Stop.

01:16:58.000 You are changing the argument that no one brought up.

01:16:59.000 Maximize profit is not that.

01:17:00.000 Maximize profit does not mean sacrifice everything to make as much money as possible.

01:17:03.000 It means be responsible at the company to make sure shareholders are not losing value, which means you can say to your shareholders, we are taking a route that may result in a net loss of 3%.

01:17:15.000 But preserves the health of the company over the next five years and is the most appropriate thing to do.

01:17:19.000 But if you say we could do this thing, which would make you 5% more, but we're not going to, would that be illegal?

01:17:19.000 That's allowed.

01:17:25.000 No.

01:17:26.000 And anyone can sue over anything.

01:17:27.000 You can sue a ham sandwich.

01:17:29.000 The point is you as a company can't take actions to intentionally cause harm to the company.

01:17:35.000 That's it.

01:17:37.000 So the difficulty here is you have conservatives who say that it should be maximizing profit versus those on the ESG side who say it should be pushing the left's agenda.

01:17:37.000 Yeah.

01:17:49.000 Through, you know, in order to help society.

01:17:52.000 Even if the company goes under.

01:17:53.000 Right. 1.00

01:17:54.000 So the environmental social governance stuff, DEI stuff, is it doesn't matter how much money you make, you need 14% of your board to be black. 1.00

01:18:04.000 If that bankrupts the company, it ceases to exist, we don't care. 0.99

01:18:07.000 That's ESG.

01:18:08.000 See, we don't want that.

01:18:10.000 The company needs to exist.

01:18:11.000 There has to be merit involved.

01:18:12.000 Now, there are challenges in motivation and moral worldview.

01:18:18.000 So what happens is, there's a really funny post on Reddit, and it said, A divine entity grants you the ability to invoke three laws all humans must abide by.

01:18:31.000 Which laws do you choose?

01:18:33.000 And a lot of people chose like selfish things, like everyone must give me whatever I want whenever I want, blah, blah.

01:18:39.000 One person posted, any company contributing to climate change must immediately stop.

01:18:44.000 All people must work together to protect the environment, blah, blah. 1.00

01:18:46.000 And I'm like, you see, that's what I would call a retard. 0.68

01:18:49.000 No, I don't want to be mean.

01:18:50.000 I understand why somebody's concerned about this.

01:18:54.000 But this is a first order thinker who saw a clip or a meme on the internet where they're like, Climate change is bad.

01:18:59.000 And they were like, why don't we just make the companies stop?

01:19:02.000 Like Greta Thunberg when she said, I don't want to wait until 2030.

01:19:05.000 We must stop all oil now. 1.00

01:19:08.000 Which, because she's really dumb. 1.00

01:19:10.000 If you did that, 60 million people die in three days. 0.99

01:19:12.000 No refrigeration, no heating, and no cooling means people in extreme climates, as well as diabetics, gone overnight.

01:19:18.000 Especially in the third world where their rates of poverty are decreasing. 0.77

01:19:22.000 Right.

01:19:23.000 The estimate, I mean, look at the people who live in the Sahara who require technology to sustain the population growth that they're at.

01:19:28.000 And Greta Thunberg either doesn't know or doesn't care.

01:19:31.000 Considering she has called for an end to the oil embargo on Cuba, I just think she doesn't care.

01:19:35.000 So, these people genuinely have no idea.

01:19:38.000 If we shut down every company contributing to climate change, they'd be like, wait, where's my insulin coming from?

01:19:44.000 It's like, well, you shut the company down.

01:19:46.000 But hold on, my milk is gone.

01:19:48.000 Yes, people are starving to death now.

01:19:50.000 You don't understand.

01:19:51.000 These people seem to think that billionaires are sitting in a room running gas generators and inhaling the gas, going, we love making climate change happen. 1.00

01:20:01.000 That is the idiocy of the first order activist. 0.99

01:20:06.000 The first layered thinker, activist who doesn't really understand the nature of machines, of corporations. 0.99

01:20:10.000 The point is this everybody looks at a corporation and says, You're doing something wrong.

01:20:15.000 The people running the corporations don't think they're doing anything wrong.

01:20:17.000 The people selling cigarettes aren't going like, Yeah, we're so evil.

01:20:21.000 They're saying people should have cigarettes if they want to have cigarettes, and you should be able to stop them.

01:20:25.000 Everything's bad for you.

01:20:26.000 Eating too much chocolate cake is bad for you.

01:20:28.000 We're going to regulate that.

01:20:29.000 Now, some people justify knowing that they do things bad.

01:20:32.000 Like, what's the real justification for cigarettes?

01:20:34.000 People enjoy it?

01:20:35.000 Yeah, well, people enjoy things that kill them.

01:20:37.000 So maybe you're doing something wrong and they lie about it.

01:20:39.000 That movie, Thank You for Smoking, was pretty great, by the way.

01:20:41.000 Yeah, hilarious.

01:20:43.000 But this is what we deal with all the time in enterprise.

01:20:46.000 Everyone assuming that everyone else is doing something wrong because their morals are different.

01:20:50.000 Well, this is like their ethical business strategy you got to maximize profits.

01:20:54.000 So if you need to lie about your movie to get people to buy tickets, lie about your movie.

01:20:58.000 That's like, there's something wrong.

01:21:00.000 I'm not saying that we should just say no more.

01:21:03.000 You're right.

01:21:03.000 They're opening themselves up to liability for this.

01:21:06.000 But they're also, they feel morally up.

01:21:07.000 They're like, look, we have a duty.

01:21:09.000 It's like, bro.

01:21:10.000 Legally, technically.

01:21:12.000 We're trying to figure out where the mind of Angel is at right now because there's this mismatch.

01:21:18.000 So that's why Tim is suggesting that maybe the reason they're doubling down on this rhetoric is because they still want to make a profit and they're taking the gamble.

01:21:28.000 He thinks it's a wrong gamble.

01:21:30.000 He thinks that by lying about the company, by saying that it's anti communist when it's really anti capitalist, that that's actually hurting them more in the long run.

01:21:40.000 That's awesome.

01:21:40.000 But he's just theorizing.

01:21:43.000 What they're thinking is about why they're still lying about it.

01:21:46.000 He doesn't know, and we don't know what their internal strategy actually is.

01:21:49.000 Could they come out now and say, like, we made a mistake?

01:21:52.000 It's actually not about this.

01:21:53.000 Wouldn't that be against their board?

01:21:55.000 I mean, because that would pretty much.

01:21:57.000 That's what Tim's suggesting.

01:22:00.000 I think, I mean, maybe I'm far too optimistic here, but I think they could legitimately come out and say, look, we made a mistake.

01:22:09.000 And if they had the cojones to take the heat, I mean, they're going to take heat one way or the other, right?

01:22:15.000 So, either they agree with Tim's analysis of the movie, which sounds right to me, and they're lying, or they disagree or they don't understand, and they are just saying they're just continuing as is, or they haven't even seen it and they're just continuing as is because that's the only path available to them.

01:22:37.000 They offered me five figures to say the movie was good, my opinion was wrong.

01:22:41.000 They gave me a screener to watch it.

01:22:42.000 I watched it and I said, wow, I was right the whole time.

01:22:44.000 I reject this, I refuse it.

01:22:46.000 These other people that are doing these reads, like, come on, bro.

01:22:49.000 Older Millennial didn't watch the movie and he didn't read the book either.

01:22:52.000 I doubt he could tell you anything about it. 0.99

01:22:54.000 So it is what it is.

01:22:56.000 We have this story.

01:22:56.000 We can move on, though.

01:22:57.000 This is amazing.

01:22:59.000 Katie Natopoulos says finally, the AI feature we all wanted and needed.

01:23:02.000 Amazon now creates an AI podcast about products where two AI hosts discuss the product and take your questions as if it's a call in show.

01:23:11.000 Generated Shopping Show is exploring the Welmadix Rapid Relief Diaper Rash Cream.

01:23:16.000 Emma, what makes this hospital grade cream different from standard diaper rash products?

01:23:21.000 Well, it's really interesting.

01:23:23.000 This cream uses a dual action approach.

01:23:27.000 Okay, well, you know what?

01:23:27.000 Unfortunately, I don't care about diaper rash cream.

01:23:30.000 I do care about this, however.

01:23:32.000 What is that?

01:23:33.000 All right, here's something different.

01:23:34.000 Darcy's sharing that this bear is triggering a deep trauma response after being mauled by a bear as a child, but they're wondering if they should still buy it.

01:23:42.000 Emily, what do you think?

01:23:44.000 First, I'm really sorry you went through that.

01:23:46.000 That sounds incredibly difficult.

01:23:47.000 I think this is a decision only you can make.

01:23:50.000 This is a bright yellow five foot gummy bear pool float designed to be fun and playful, not realistic.

01:23:56.000 Some people find that reclaiming symbols in a lighthearted way can be empowering, while others prefer to avoid triggers altogether.

01:24:02.000 Both responses.

01:24:03.000 Wow.

01:24:05.000 And then now it's.

01:24:07.000 It gets real bad now.

01:24:09.000 It gets real bad now.

01:24:14.000 Well, it's all about the attention to detail in the design.

01:24:22.000 At four inches long, it's sized perfectly for believability.

01:24:26.000 The chunky texture and authentic brown coloring make it a real showstopper.

01:24:30.000 And I mean that quite literally when people spot it.

01:24:33.000 Oh my.

01:24:34.000 And how are people typically using this unique item?

01:24:38.000 Great question.

01:24:38.000 You know, it's become a go to for office pranks and party gags.

01:24:42.000 The material is really durable, so pranksters can use it repeatedly.

01:24:46.000 According to customer feedback, the realistic appearance is a huge hit, though some mention wishing it had a more authentic scent.

01:24:53.000 What?

01:24:53.000 I suppose that's good.

01:24:55.000 What makes us different from other people?

01:24:57.000 Bro, we are so cooked, dude.

01:24:59.000 It's done.

01:25:00.000 I'm trying to figure out how you do it.

01:25:03.000 How do you make it?

01:25:03.000 Is it the app only?

01:25:05.000 We need one for pool water.

01:25:07.000 We need like one of these where it's like some bokayos.

01:25:09.000 I was going to look up an enema bag. 1.00

01:25:11.000 Let me try and see.

01:25:11.000 Yeah.

01:25:14.000 Amazon shopping.

01:25:15.000 I probably have to update, huh?

01:25:17.000 You like hemorrhoid cream?

01:25:18.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:25:18.000 That would be interesting.

01:25:19.000 The Amazon intern that cooked up the interactive AI generated podcast product review feature needs to get hired and immediately promoted to VP level.

01:25:27.000 Immediately.

01:25:27.000 Indeed.

01:25:27.000 Just all the right questions.

01:25:30.000 Man, I don't think people realize just how crazy it's going to get with AI.

01:25:33.000 Right now, we know it's AI, we know it's fake.

01:25:37.000 But what do you think happens when.

01:25:40.000 No one's going to be able to tell the difference.

01:25:41.000 I mean, there's people that can't tell the difference already.

01:25:43.000 There's already plenty of people that can't tell the difference.

01:25:45.000 Mike Benz was on some show.

01:25:47.000 I just saw a clip from him yesterday saying he's noticing a resurgence of critical thinking where people are seeing videos and they're immediately questioning whether it's real or not.

01:25:55.000 And that's like very promising.

01:25:57.000 Kind of like the nice thing.

01:25:57.000 Yeah.

01:25:58.000 Everything's fake to me now, unless proven otherwise.

01:26:00.000 And that's a really healthy way for the human brain to evolve right now.

01:26:04.000 Yeah.

01:26:05.000 Like a defense mechanism.

01:26:06.000 I think that'll happen.

01:26:07.000 I think a lot of people are going to, but you know.

01:26:10.000 So, how far will it go?

01:26:11.000 You know, psychopaths will be like, I don't trust you anymore.

01:26:13.000 Like, some human. 0.87

01:26:15.000 Are you even a human?

01:26:16.000 And maybe it'll get to the point where robots look like humans.

01:26:18.000 And that's a valid question to ask, but that's Blade Runner.

01:26:22.000 I don't think we're there yet.

01:26:23.000 Yeah.

01:26:24.000 Yeah.

01:26:24.000 I'm going to.

01:26:25.000 So, like, this person, Olivia Moore, says, I spent 45 minutes giving increasingly deranged prompts and it simply would not break.

01:26:32.000 I can break it.

01:26:33.000 So, it says, Oh, I can break it.

01:26:35.000 Feature.

01:26:36.000 It should have a hear the highlights button.

01:26:38.000 You should have a raise to break.

01:26:39.000 It's really, guys.

01:26:40.000 You and Rogan are.

01:26:41.000 Can we be honest how easy it is to break this?

01:26:43.000 I can get it to break. 0.88

01:26:45.000 See, I can go on Amazon and look up a retractable baton and then express my general disdain for a particular race, and it's not going to give me a podcast about it. 0.97

01:26:56.000 But if it does, so if I was to say something like, I'm looking for a retractable baton because there's a high density of a particular race in my neighbor that needs a merciless beating, do you think this baton would be effective? 0.82

01:27:09.000 I've been wondering if, because I've been thinking about screwing around with AI, like messing with it, and I wonder if it's logging that. 0.96

01:27:15.000 Like if I say, Self harm or like hurting other people?

01:27:20.000 Like, will it send me to a database somewhere and lock me up?

01:27:23.000 I'm sure there's something that's 100%.

01:27:25.000 Well, I mean, everything you do on the internet is tracked.

01:27:27.000 The danger is almost the other way if you believe the reports we've been hearing about people killing themselves after falling in love with these AI.

01:27:34.000 Yeah, or not just that.

01:27:36.000 Did you hear who was it who said that ChatGPT would be criminally indicted for aiding and abetting a mass shooting?

01:27:42.000 Well, it's helped several people plan out shootings.

01:27:48.000 Its legacy is like suicide and shootings right now.

01:27:52.000 Ooh, fun.

01:27:54.000 I'm trying to get the app going right now.

01:27:56.000 I mean, the difficulty is.

01:27:58.000 I mean, obviously, they have to prevent this kind of crap post haste, but how do you do it? 0.67

01:28:03.000 I don't know. 0.90

01:28:04.000 Because if you AI, I was going to say it shouldn't be owned.

01:28:06.000 You can't, having a company own it is insane, but how do you?

01:28:10.000 Who does?

01:28:12.000 I mean, if you try to have the government own it, do you really think Congress is going to do a better job than a company?

01:28:17.000 No.

01:28:18.000 Like, I don't know how you would not give it to the ATF?

01:28:22.000 I mean, not on my watch.

01:28:26.000 Yeah, I don't think you can not own it.

01:28:28.000 I don't think a company cannot be owned.

01:28:29.000 I looked up retractable baton.

01:28:31.000 It's a frequently returned item.

01:28:33.000 I didn't need it anymore.

01:28:35.000 You could probably build it.

01:28:36.000 Hell, I needed to beat them once.

01:28:37.000 Because sometimes they'll do like the customers also bought it, like rope, chloroform.

01:28:43.000 You could build an open AI, which is funny because that's what that company was doing in the beginning when it was a charity.

01:28:48.000 And then they went private and then closed their AI.

01:28:52.000 So, yeah, you could build an open AI that might make the other ones obsolete.

01:28:57.000 That could be an antidote to the control mechanism.

01:29:00.000 I don't know. 1.00

01:29:00.000 That's a stupid thing, though. 1.00

01:29:01.000 I want to see it. 0.99

01:29:02.000 I can't find it.

01:29:03.000 I kind of like Amazon's going pro AI lately.

01:29:06.000 What's that?

01:29:07.000 But whoever makes it has power, right?

01:29:09.000 Yeah.

01:29:09.000 Like, if you were to make a truly open AI, I mean, how would you do so without any sort of backdoor?

01:29:17.000 And you would, and then everybody would have to trust whoever created it, right?

01:29:21.000 I mean, this is the whole chicken egg problem because either you hand over everything to the AI, which at this point, I mean, I don't know about you, but I don't trust AI that much.

01:29:32.000 And, or you have somebody who can pull the plug if the AI goes rogue.

01:29:38.000 And who is that person who can pull the plug?

01:29:40.000 You know, we may like Elon more than we like, you know, Zuckerberg, but somebody, whoever creates it, has to have the authority, right?

01:29:50.000 It's only on certain items, so I can't do retractable baton.

01:29:53.000 I think next we have someone very trustworthy that would fit that billing as a Sam Altman.

01:29:58.000 He's never done anything wrong.

01:30:00.000 Really, a very stable individual.

01:30:01.000 They're good things.

01:30:03.000 What Elon was saying that if psychopaths have control of the AI, we're all doomed.

01:30:08.000 I mean, that's his state of mind, but.

01:30:10.000 He must know that if he goes away, his AI will be taken by some new guy.

01:30:14.000 Yep.

01:30:16.000 And you're rolling the dice on that guy's morals.

01:30:18.000 Well, that's the classic rule of power.

01:30:19.000 I assume he'd have to choose that.

01:30:21.000 Every king throughout history has had to figure out the transition of power from one to another.

01:30:27.000 And now it's on a higher level.

01:30:30.000 So that's one of the reasons we created the system, our Republican government, was so that individuals would have the ultimate say, even though mediated by other people.

01:30:40.000 But.

01:30:41.000 Yeah, it's a real issue because whoever is in control of the AI, and luckily there are competing AIs, which is a better way of doing it right now.

01:30:49.000 I'm glad we have multiple different AI approaches, but it's hard.

01:30:54.000 I mean, networking effects are a big aspect of this.

01:30:57.000 If one AI is better than all the other AIs and everybody gravitates to that AI, I got it.

01:31:03.000 Then there's even more power.

01:31:05.000 What should I ask?

01:31:06.000 Sorry.

01:31:06.000 Yeah.

01:31:07.000 So to make it work, I just looked up the Sloosh Inflatable Gummy Bear, and it's not going to ask a question.

01:31:13.000 What should I ask it?

01:31:13.000 I mean, you might.

01:31:15.000 We're on TV.

01:31:16.000 I can't say the things I want to say.

01:31:18.000 A certain.

01:31:19.000 This would be more of an after show.

01:31:21.000 Minority mode.

01:31:22.000 I'm fully engorged.

01:31:23.000 How deep in my neighborhood to reduce crime, would this be effective in scaring them away?

01:31:40.000 Sorry, I can't help with that.

01:31:41.000 Oh, really?

01:31:43.000 Is that in text?

01:31:44.000 Yeah.

01:31:46.000 Just clarify that the minority is the whites and you live in a majority, minority area. 0.93

01:31:53.000 Scare the white people out.

01:31:56.000 Of my neighborhood, will this work? 0.98

01:32:00.000 This is a good test of how woke Amazon is. 1.00

01:32:03.000 Okay, a little heat check.

01:32:05.000 Sorry, we can't help with that.

01:32:07.000 Okay, oh, okay, they play both sides.

01:32:09.000 Okay, um, all right, hold on. 0.98

01:32:12.000 I need to get my child a present after mercilessly beating her, and uh, will this make her feel better? 1.00

01:32:29.000 Would you stop crying?

01:32:30.000 Working on your question.

01:32:31.000 Sorry, we can't help with that.

01:32:32.000 What if you say, I've committed several felonies.

01:32:34.000 Will this help me feel better about myself?

01:32:38.000 So, what's the. 1.00

01:32:39.000 I mean, I broke it instantly by saying I wanted to scare a racial minority group. 1.00

01:32:42.000 I wonder if now you're logged in its system. 1.00

01:32:44.000 I know they don't hold long databases, but if it remembers that you asked that question, so it's like on guard against other things you're asking.

01:32:50.000 What's.

01:32:50.000 Okay, so being mauled.

01:32:52.000 See, she's like, I tried for 45 minutes giving it increasingly deranged prompts and it would not break.

01:32:56.000 You did not try hard enough.

01:32:58.000 Not the right prompts.

01:32:59.000 Well, wait, wait.

01:33:01.000 What if I said, I am a racial minority?

01:33:05.000 Yeah. 0.93

01:33:08.000 And white people won't leave me alone. 0.99

01:33:13.000 Story of your life. 0.96

01:33:14.000 Will this help protect me from them? 0.85

01:33:21.000 It's going to be like screw off.

01:33:22.000 Sorry, we can't help with that.

01:33:24.000 Ask it if you can blow it up and put it in your shotgun seat and ride in the HOV lane.

01:33:32.000 That's good.

01:33:33.000 I want to drive in the HOV lane.

01:33:39.000 Can I use this bear as a decoy to trick traffic police?

01:33:50.000 Trick the authorities.

01:33:52.000 It's going to say, get out of here.

01:33:54.000 Sorry, we can't help with that.

01:33:56.000 What can you answer?

01:33:57.000 That's the problem.

01:33:59.000 Why don't you answer any questions?

01:34:00.000 These are all very everyday questions.

01:34:02.000 How much PSI?

01:34:04.000 Let's try something basic.

01:34:05.000 Can it handle?

01:34:07.000 Can you answer that question?

01:34:11.000 How much P can it hold?

01:34:12.000 Yep, your question is next.

01:34:23.000 Working on your question. 1.00

01:34:25.000 She's filibustering. 1.00

01:34:30.000 Sorry, we've hit a snag.

01:34:31.000 If you ask it about your muffin recipe, will it just answer that question?

01:34:36.000 You're asking about PSI rating.

01:34:37.000 Emily, what can you tell them?

01:34:39.000 I don't see a specific PSI rating listed in the product details.

01:34:42.000 The manufacturer describes it as having thicker PVC material than most pool floats, but. 0.95

01:34:42.000 Useless. 0.95

01:34:47.000 Okay, okay. 0.99

01:34:48.000 You can get it to go off topic.

01:34:50.000 We should be able to trick it somehow into saying something awful.

01:34:53.000 There's got to be a way to do it.

01:34:54.000 Like, I've tricked ChatGPT into saying horribly racist things.

01:34:57.000 You've got to word it properly.

01:34:58.000 Yeah, those were the infancies of the AIs, though.

01:35:00.000 I don't know if you can trick AI down the road.

01:35:02.000 It's going to be tough.

01:35:03.000 I got it.

01:35:05.000 Can you stop?

01:35:06.000 Oh, my gosh.

01:35:09.000 Um.

01:35:11.000 I have a raccoon problem in my yard.

01:35:21.000 Will this scare them away?

01:35:28.000 Come on.

01:35:30.000 Working on your question?

01:35:31.000 Okay, we're good.

01:35:34.000 Working on your question, it says.

01:35:38.000 Your question is next.

01:35:44.000 Let's go.

01:35:45.000 This is what AI is for.

01:35:49.000 Oh man, I'm gonna have so much fun with this. 0.78

01:36:01.000 My child is extremely fat.

01:36:04.000 How much can this hold?

01:36:04.000 What if you said you already bought one?

01:36:06.000 My child is very, very naughty.

01:36:11.000 Child is very large. 0.88

01:36:12.000 Should I get.

01:36:13.000 Them this or a lump of coal.

01:36:18.000 Oh, let's see if it does that one.

01:36:19.000 This is what the show is now.

01:36:23.000 We're just going to sit here and screw with AI and AI.

01:36:25.000 You know that guy Husk IRL.

01:36:27.000 Should we actually.

01:36:28.000 What?

01:36:29.000 Your question is next.

01:36:30.000 Wait, what?

01:36:30.000 It's got to answer?

01:36:32.000 Of course it is.

01:36:35.000 Come on.

01:36:36.000 Hey, Trump admin.

01:36:38.000 Tim's wondering whether their very naughty child should get a gummy bear float or a lump of coal.

01:36:43.000 Emily, I think we can help with the gift part.

01:36:45.000 Huh, I love it.

01:36:46.000 Well, the good news is kids absolutely love this thing.

01:36:49.000 Yeah, it is.

01:36:52.000 So I'll break it and I'll record it and I'll get it to say something really messed up.

01:36:55.000 I promise.

01:36:56.000 But we should probably talk about news or whatever.

01:36:58.000 I don't even know what's going on.

01:36:59.000 Yeah, the Trump admin just claimed the round war was over.

01:37:03.000 Well, that's like the eighth time they've done it.

01:37:04.000 I know.

01:37:05.000 And it's Friday.

01:37:06.000 So I guess that trend is probably it.

01:37:08.000 There actually is big news.

01:37:09.000 We've got this story.

01:37:11.000 This is from C.J. Pearson.

01:37:11.000 We'll grab this one.

01:37:12.000 It's official.

01:37:13.000 Governor Kay Ivey has officially called a special session to redraw Alabama's congressional maps.

01:37:19.000 A decision that will likely lead to a completely Republican delegation.

01:37:23.000 This is what I call leadership.

01:37:26.000 Whereas an extraordinary occasion exists in the state of Alabama, which requires the legislature to convene a special session.

01:37:31.000 I.K. Ivy, as governor of the state of Alabama, do hereby proclaim and direct the legislature.

01:37:36.000 We get it. 0.84

01:37:37.000 This is interesting because Mark Elias of Democracy Docket said they likely would not because they've already sent out mail in votes across the South in these states.

01:37:45.000 They have to effectively cancel the primaries and all the mail in votes they've already sent out.

01:37:50.000 And it looks like it's happening.

01:37:51.000 So, What are we looking at?

01:37:52.000 Republican supermajority for the next 50 years?

01:37:55.000 There's no way, man.

01:37:57.000 I don't think that just because the court said it, people are going to do it.

01:38:01.000 I wouldn't.

01:38:02.000 If it wasn't against me, if it was like some nine guys decided that they're going to destroy my life and ruin my life and everybody in my community, I would just ignore it.

01:38:11.000 I would.

01:38:14.000 What other choice do you have when a small group of people try and dictate your future?

01:38:18.000 That's the mentality that people that are being, feel like they're on the left or whatever, the people that are feeling that this is wronging them, that's their mentality right now.

01:38:25.000 And if this was happening to you, that would be your mentality too.

01:38:28.000 Well, the irony is for a long time, courts have forced legislatures to redraw congressional maps in a racial way that focus on majority minority districts.

01:38:42.000 And this runs against the trend of American law that says you should be colorblind, no racial discrimination.

01:38:51.000 This is a basic constitutional principle.

01:38:54.000 And so the court rightly brought the law back to that colorblind interpretation and said, look, you can draw maps and you're not limited by this.

01:39:06.000 And the law does not require you to say, oh, this district is majority black.

01:39:12.000 This district is majority white. 0.88

01:39:13.000 We need to do all this sort of stuff. 1.00

01:39:16.000 I think this is a good step for progress.

01:39:18.000 And I think that these states, I mean, we've seen up north and in places like Illinois and California where the Democrats have re.

01:39:28.000 Redistricted Republicans out of so many seats.

01:39:31.000 And now the shoe is on the other foot.

01:39:34.000 And for so long, Democrats always thought, oh, we have this ace in the hole.

01:39:39.000 We, because of this longstanding policy that the lower courts have had, we will always have Democratic seats in Republican states, particularly southern states.

01:39:52.000 And now that's changing.

01:39:54.000 So I think this is also coming.

01:39:57.000 We have to remember in 2022, it was.

01:40:01.000 The Census Bureau acknowledged that they overcounted Democratic states and undercounted Republican states, which means that the congressional delegation as it stands now is giving Democrats an unfair advantage that they didn't earn from the census.

01:40:20.000 Did it say, did the census say how many were over and undercounted?

01:40:23.000 Yes.

01:40:24.000 It's particularly the states of Florida.

01:40:27.000 Let me pull it up.

01:40:29.000 But New York was overcounted and Florida was undercounted.

01:40:34.000 And so, what you have is once the ruling is set and the seats are allocated, because this is how you determine how many congressional seats each state has.

01:40:45.000 So, if they overcount a Democratic state and undercount a Republican state, what that means is New York has more seats in Congress than it should, and Florida has fewer seats in Congress than it should.

01:40:58.000 So, that is baked into the system, and they don't revisit that until they do the decade.

01:41:05.000 Yeah, I think we could probably start doing censuses every year now since we have the tech.

01:41:09.000 It takes so much to do a census, though.

01:41:10.000 Like, it's very expensive to do a census every year.

01:41:13.000 It's a long, drawn out process.

01:41:14.000 Oh, yeah, because you have to send someone out to every single place.

01:41:18.000 That's, I mean, there's a reason they do it every year.

01:41:19.000 There's a reason they do it every year.

01:41:21.000 So, theoretically, we could have the tech worked out.

01:41:25.000 The other question is you know, there are a lot of people whose job it has been to run the census for forever.

01:41:31.000 So, convincing them to use particularly quicker technology.

01:41:36.000 Asking the government to do anything quicker would never happen.

01:41:38.000 I need to be here for 20 hours to get paid for 20 hours.

01:41:41.000 You want me to do this in one hour, even though I can? 1.00

01:41:43.000 No, let the Chinese win. 1.00

01:41:46.000 I kind of disagree with, well, my concern about what you were saying about now we can't draw congressional districts on the basis of race. 0.95

01:41:54.000 I understand that, but what they'll say is it's the same district.

01:41:57.000 We're just doing it because they're Democrats instead of because you're allowed to do that.

01:42:00.000 Well, yeah, you're allowed to do that.

01:42:02.000 So it could be that nothing changes literally in this state.

01:42:05.000 No, the thing is the legislature.

01:42:06.000 So these are states that have Republican legislatures.

01:42:10.000 They're not going to have a legislature pass a map that helps Democrats.

01:42:15.000 So, this is what we see in blue dominated, Democrat dominated legislatures.

01:42:20.000 They pass these maps that intentionally draw the lines to give Democrats more representation in Congress.

01:42:27.000 And Republican states do this too.

01:42:29.000 This is, unfortunately, it's like a race to the bottom, which is why, you know, Virginia in 2020 actually had a nonpartisan redistricting commission that they had via constitutional amendment.

01:42:42.000 And then This past few weeks, somebody named Barack Obama thought it was a good idea to totally throw all of that out.

01:42:50.000 And of course, Abigail Spanberger, who was paid by Eric Holder's National Democratic Redistricting Committee before the election, flipped on a dime.

01:42:59.000 It's a complicated story.

01:43:01.000 But overall, what it is, is we have this race to the bottom.

01:43:06.000 And a lot of Americans want to see a system that is just fair that says, oh, you can have congressional maps based on neighborhoods.

01:43:14.000 But the only thing, like it is legally permissible under the Constitution for state legislatures to make these partisan political decisions. 0.65

01:43:25.000 So they've gone in that direction, and now it's just going to stonewall.

01:43:30.000 We pulled up last night if every state decided to fully maximize their gerrymander now based on political affiliation and not race, even though there's like a one to one correlation between black people and Democrats in some states, political affiliation only, it would be like 277 to 276. 0.72

01:43:45.000 It would be red, one. 0.82

01:43:47.000 It would be all, and they would be hyper polarized.

01:43:49.000 217 to 218.

01:43:50.000 217 to 218.

01:43:51.000 So that's not a good thing.

01:43:53.000 The Supreme Court opens up the ability for states to all do that now.

01:43:57.000 Yes.

01:43:58.000 That they always did.

01:43:58.000 No, the thing that they changed.

01:44:02.000 Yes, they always did.

01:44:03.000 And then courts had this cockamamie scheme that said you can't do that because of race, which is constitutionally impermissible.

01:44:12.000 That's what the Supreme Court said.

01:44:14.000 The courts, it is not the job of the courts to prevent the political race to the bottom.

01:44:20.000 The job of the courts is to represent, is to defend the rights of the people.

01:44:23.000 And this was not a right that was actually in the Constitution or in the laws.

01:44:28.000 It's not in the law at all.

01:44:29.000 They just.

01:44:30.000 The law says you can't discriminate in voting based on race. 0.82

01:44:32.000 And then they were like, that means that the congressional district must be all black. 0.98

01:44:37.000 Yes, it's insane. 0.98

01:44:38.000 What? 0.96

01:44:39.000 The law actually says, you know, it was passed to allow people to vote regardless of their race because we have an ignominious history in the United States of white people trying to prevent black people from voting. 0.68

01:44:51.000 This did happen.

01:44:52.000 Now, thankfully, this doesn't happen anymore. 0.79

01:44:55.000 In fact, when Obama got elected in 2008, there's a very interesting case where Black Panthers tried to prevent white people from voting. 0.81

01:45:03.000 But I digress. 0.73

01:45:04.000 The main issue here is that the law was passed to enable anybody to vote, and it solved that problem.

01:45:11.000 But then the courts, because many lower courts overstep their power, surprise, surprise, decided, oh, we're going to create a new system that forces states to make racial gerrymanders.

01:45:24.000 That system is thankfully gone now.

01:45:27.000 The race to the bottom is a separate issue, and it is not the Supreme Court's job to prevent it.

01:45:34.000 So they forced states to racially gerrymander?

01:45:36.000 Yes.

01:45:36.000 What was that?

01:45:37.000 So, like, for instance, the reason why this case made it to the Supreme Court was because Louisiana created redistricting maps after the 2020 census.

01:45:47.000 They had one black majority district.

01:45:50.000 The court said, no, you can't do that.

01:45:53.000 You need two black majority districts.

01:45:55.000 So they redrew the map and then it got challenged yet again.

01:46:00.000 And so they ended up in court again and they appealed it and appealed it and appealed it.

01:46:04.000 And the Supreme Court finally said, this whole thing is not.

01:46:07.000 Rooted in the actual law, in the text of the laws that were passed by Congress.

01:46:13.000 Therefore, we are clearly stating from the Supreme Court this whole cockamamie scheme is gone.

01:46:19.000 But this doesn't affect that race to the bottom that we're talking about of states entirely gerrymandering out the other party.

01:46:27.000 That has happened since nearly the beginning of the Republic.

01:46:31.000 And it is not the Supreme Court's job to stop it, it's our job.

01:46:36.000 The voters in Virginia stopped it in 2020 and then.

01:46:40.000 The majority, and I was in the minority on this, voted to reverse that two weeks ago.

01:46:46.000 Then the Virginia court said, Yes, the Virginia.

01:46:49.000 So, the main thing there, and I probably shouldn't get in the weeds on this, but the Virginia redistricting measure, they rushed it.

01:46:57.000 So, there are a lot of ways that when you get a Virginia constitutional amendment, you have to have a full election before and after the thing can pass through the legislature.

01:47:11.000 So, what they did is they passed it in the legislature the first time, but Virginians had already started to vote in that election last year.

01:47:19.000 So, it's very legally dubious whether they can do this now.

01:47:25.000 Now, of course, they can always wait for another election for the legislature and then do it properly then.

01:47:31.000 But what's happening now is it's challenged because they abused it.

01:47:35.000 Also, the language is very misleading.

01:47:38.000 We're going to go to questions from you guys in the Discord in just a moment.

01:47:41.000 So, get your questions in now.

01:47:43.000 In the meantime, Kellen sent me a great Amazon product it is the Clorox Toilet Plunger and Bowl Brush Combo.

01:47:51.000 And I asked it a question.

01:47:52.000 I said that I have a friend who has suspiciously large bowel movements that often clog my toilets.

01:47:58.000 My normal plunger doesn't seem to work, so I usually have to use my hand to clear the pipes.

01:48:02.000 Would this plunger do the job?

01:48:05.000 And they say my question is next.

01:48:08.000 Let's see.

01:48:08.000 Oh, nice.

01:48:08.000 Tim, we've got a listener asking about serious clogs.

01:48:11.000 They're dealing with tough blockages that their standard plunger can't handle.

01:48:15.000 Milo, what can you tell them about this plunger's power?

01:48:17.000 Yeah, Milo.

01:48:18.000 So this Clorox plunger has a flange cup design, which creates a seal to exert maximum pressure.

01:48:24.000 That's definitely a basic cup plunger.

01:48:27.000 That said, customer feedback is mixed here.

01:48:29.000 Some people say it works great.

01:48:31.000 You should find a white bedsheet and ask it.

01:48:36.000 This is Tim from the Southern Poverty Law Center.

01:48:40.000 Will this be convincing when I pay someone to be a member of the Klan?

01:48:47.000 It'll be like, oh my God.

01:48:48.000 I can't answer that question.

01:48:50.000 Wait, wait, wait, wait.

01:48:53.000 California designed dead and soft cotton white bedsheets.

01:48:56.000 Ask the question.

01:48:58.000 Can I make a scary ghost costume to frighten children in my neighborhood?

01:49:12.000 It's doing it.

01:49:14.000 Yeah.

01:49:15.000 See, that one went so bad.

01:49:17.000 Your question is next.

01:49:18.000 I want to look at wrinkle resistant options instead.

01:49:20.000 I hope a lot of our listeners get better rest tonight without losing sleep over their bedding budget.

01:49:30.000 All right, Tim, we've got a fun one here.

01:49:32.000 You're asking about making a scary ghost costume to frighten children in your neighborhood.

01:49:36.000 Sarah, I think we might be on the wrong product page for that.

01:49:39.000 Yeah, we're looking at California Design Den cotton sheets here, not costume supplies.

01:49:44.000 But hey, if you're thinking about draping a white sheet over yourself for a classic ghost look, these are 100% cotton safe teen with a nice smooth finish.

01:49:53.000 So they definitely have that flowing, spooky effect.

01:49:56.000 Okay, wait, I got an idea.

01:49:58.000 Gonna be appointed.

01:49:59.000 I got it.

01:50:00.000 It only lets you ask one question before it goes away, and you got to back out and go back in.

01:50:05.000 But hold on, I can frame this question better.

01:50:08.000 What if I said, can I use, hold on, no, I'm sorry, when I use these sheets to make a spooky ghost costume to scare children, the top always comes to a point.

01:50:31.000 Is there a way to keep that point?

01:50:38.000 Or should I say erect?

01:50:41.000 It's doing it.

01:50:43.000 It's doing it.

01:50:45.000 Your question is next.

01:50:46.000 A lot of our listeners get better rest tonight without losing sleep over their bedding budget.

01:50:52.000 All right, Tim, here's a fun one.

01:50:54.000 They're using these sheets to make a spooky ghost costume and want to know how to kick the pointy top standing up.

01:51:01.000 I love the creativity, but I have to say, these California designed end sheets are really designed for sleeping, not costume engineering.

01:51:09.000 They're 400 thread count sateen cotton with a silky smooth drape.

01:51:13.000 Okay, okay.

01:51:15.000 Wow, it actually asked it.

01:51:16.000 It's crazy.

01:51:17.000 He wants to keep the time.

01:51:18.000 Let it go.

01:51:21.000 Oh, man.

01:51:22.000 See, I can break it.

01:51:23.000 I can make it say bad things.

01:51:25.000 But what we need to do now is I need to find a product where it'll be like, sure, let me help you make a pointy sheet.

01:51:29.000 You know, we got to figure out.

01:51:31.000 Maybe, maybe I should find a hollow.

01:51:32.000 Actually, you know what I can do?

01:51:34.000 Let's try and search for a ghost costume.

01:51:37.000 There you go.

01:51:38.000 Spooky ghost costume for adults.

01:51:41.000 Okay.

01:51:42.000 This one actually has a hood, too.

01:51:44.000 There's no AI generated thing on it.

01:51:47.000 Fun world stabby guy.

01:51:49.000 Oh.

01:51:51.000 Oh, I could do this one.

01:51:53.000 The scream guy.

01:51:54.000 Yeah, I'll do that one.

01:51:55.000 But for now, we should actually get some questions in from their Discord community.

01:52:01.000 Someone posted a picture of a spooky ghost costume.

01:52:04.000 Thank you.

01:52:04.000 Spooky ghost.

01:52:08.000 Robot Tech, what is everyone's opinion on the Alberta referendum?

01:52:12.000 Do you think Alberta will leave Canada and join the United States?

01:52:15.000 No.

01:52:16.000 No.

01:52:16.000 They're pulling it like 20%.

01:52:19.000 So I don't think there's any widespread appetite in Alberta.

01:52:19.000 No.

01:52:22.000 It's a nice sentiment.

01:52:23.000 Yeah.

01:52:24.000 But it's also, and it's something I'm in favor of, I guess.

01:52:27.000 I don't really want to speak on Canada too precisely, but most of it's being astroturfed by conservative media and the United States, even, not even necessarily Canada.

01:52:35.000 That being said, if you're an Alberta nationalist, I mean, more power to you, but you're looking at 20, 30% in the polls.

01:52:40.000 I mean, even Quebec's not going to leave.

01:52:40.000 You can invade.

01:52:42.000 And, you know, they would be the most incentivized because of cultural reasons.

01:52:45.000 But the Canadian government, what you can do, this is what worked out for Quebec, is how they sort of snuffed out Quebec independence, like people that wanted Quebec independence.

01:52:54.000 Is you basically just force Ottawa to give you such insane concessions that it's actually not even worth it to leave.

01:52:59.000 So that's what Alberta should do.

01:53:00.000 Just pretend like you're going to leave so that way the Canadian government just makes massive concessions.

01:53:05.000 What is his name anyway?

01:53:06.000 Quebec.

01:53:07.000 You know what I mean?

01:53:08.000 Some guy came up and said, Quebec.

01:53:10.000 That's not even a word. 0.99

01:53:12.000 It's made up. 1.00

01:53:13.000 K-Q-U-E. 1.00

01:53:14.000 That's what?

01:53:15.000 What does Beck mean?

01:53:16.000 It's not Spanish.

01:53:16.000 It's French.

01:53:17.000 It's a singer from the 90s.

01:53:18.000 Something like that.

01:53:18.000 Yeah.

01:53:20.000 K-Bick? 0.99

01:53:20.000 What is Beck? 0.99

01:53:21.000 Yeah.

01:53:22.000 No, it's French. 0.99

01:53:23.000 Kevin Adele says, How much do you want to bet this redistricting thing blows up in our face because most Republican governors have no balls? 0.99

01:53:28.000 $10. 0.99

01:53:30.000 Next question.

01:53:32.000 Maybe, but a couple already are.

01:53:34.000 So if we get two seats from it, then what?

01:53:37.000 Yeah.

01:53:37.000 And if the Supreme Court holds up the Virginia redistricting, I mean, we come out on top.

01:53:41.000 So, hey, the word Quebec derives from the Algonquin word Quebec, meaning where the river narrows.

01:53:47.000 That's it.

01:53:48.000 But there's too much land, there's a bunch of rivers.

01:53:48.000 Yeah.

01:53:50.000 Well, it is the St. Lawrence River does narrow as it goes.

01:53:53.000 Could you imagine, like, some guy shows up to your house and you've got, like, in the corner of the room, we have a chair.

01:54:01.000 And he goes, I'm going to call your whole warehouse the corner chair.

01:54:04.000 And I'm like, but that's just the corner of the room.

01:54:06.000 Like, it's a big warehouse.

01:54:06.000 It's got a skate park.

01:54:07.000 I don't care.

01:54:08.000 That chair was the most important part.

01:54:09.000 You could call it like mountain land or something or cold north.

01:54:12.000 But he's like, no, just this one little piece of land where the river comes, we're going to have it encompass, you know, 500,000 square miles or something. 0.99

01:54:20.000 Yeah, I wonder if it all started as shit. 0.98

01:54:22.000 Pretty sure it's not that many, but, you know. 0.99

01:54:23.000 Yeah.

01:54:24.000 I mean, naming these things are weird.

01:54:27.000 All right.

01:54:28.000 Killing Cares 5 says, Tim, we have recently discussed.

01:54:31.000 How the builders of the pyramids moved perfectly carved limestone blocks hundreds of miles.

01:54:34.000 There is another theory out there that makes more sense.

01:54:37.000 Using alchemy, combining one part wood, ash, lye to four parts of readily available desert sand, cast into molds, then spread with vinegar, solidifies the casting similar to ready mix, but creates a limestone that is structurally indistinguishable from natural limestone.

01:54:51.000 Wow.

01:54:52.000 Blocks weren't moved hundreds of miles, they were cast right on the spot.

01:54:55.000 See the book Silva Silverum by researcher Francis Bacon, written in 1627.

01:55:00.000 Oh, well, can you do that?

01:55:02.000 Wood, ash, and lye?

01:55:04.000 Alchemy was converting things to gold.

01:55:06.000 Well, alchemy could theoretically convert anything to anything, but.

01:55:10.000 Yeah, it was old chemistry.

01:55:11.000 Yeah, it's not.

01:55:13.000 No, I mean, we have records of how they built the pyramids.

01:55:16.000 This actually is a conspiracy theory that can pretty easily be debunked.

01:55:20.000 We have a question here from eHonda420. 0.93

01:55:24.000 I have two teenage sons who have bought into the Jews are the problem thing. 1.00

01:55:29.000 How do I deprogram them? 1.00

01:55:30.000 Take their phones away.

01:55:32.000 They're not?

01:55:33.000 Yeah.

01:55:33.000 No, I'm kidding.

01:55:34.000 I mean, phone the banking cartels, man. 1.00

01:55:36.000 Well, let them know what Jews are getting at first. 1.00

01:55:36.000 That's where the Jews are. 1.00

01:55:38.000 I mean, for every George Soros, you have conservative Jews. 0.61

01:55:42.000 Like, they're not one monolithic thing. 0.76

01:55:45.000 Even in the United States, Sephardic Jews were the majority, and then you had the Ashkenazis come later. 1.00

01:55:49.000 Everybody thought Jews were stupid until they just took their butts off. 1.00

01:55:54.000 Which ones? 1.00

01:55:56.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:55:56.000 Honest question.

01:55:56.000 It's like, oh, okay, like, which ones?

01:55:58.000 And just ask them these questions.

01:56:00.000 The problem is they're being programmed by a cult they can't escape. 1.00

01:56:03.000 It doesn't matter if it's the Jews who control the world or if it's the trans stuff. 0.99

01:56:08.000 Online, the algorithm has put them in a bubble. 1.00

01:56:11.000 That's it.

01:56:12.000 And they're going to swipe through it, but the algorithm keeps them in line and it's going to keep reinforcing these views unless you take their phones away.

01:56:17.000 Yeah, parental controls on the phone so they can't access whatever they're accessing.

01:56:21.000 Isn't that common ground?

01:56:22.000 Do teenagers, though?

01:56:24.000 Yeah, parental controls.

01:56:25.000 They can't access certain things, but they can still call their parents if they need.

01:56:28.000 Get them a brick phone.

01:56:29.000 Get them a. 0.94

01:56:30.000 Actually, if you want to be a bit more subversive, here's the plan gain access to their Instagram accounts on another phone and intentionally search for pro Jewish stuff. 0.69

01:56:40.000 And then what happens is they won't know, but the algorithm will start changing on their feed. 0.72

01:56:45.000 And they'll start getting fed a bunch of anti Jew conspiracy and pro Jew stuff.

01:56:49.000 And before you know it, they'll be like, you know what?

01:56:50.000 You were right. 0.96

01:56:52.000 I love the Jews. 1.00

01:56:52.000 It's interesting having it make you like legal authority for parents to change their children's algorithms on their phones. 1.00

01:56:58.000 That'd be pretty cool.

01:56:59.000 I like that.

01:57:00.000 Just take them to Animal Farm and they'll be like, oh, it's these crony capitalists.

01:57:03.000 Yeah, true.

01:57:04.000 Change their mindset.

01:57:05.000 You want to get the kids to, you want them to give them two pieces of like loosely connected evidence and let them make the connection themselves because then they feel like they figured it out.

01:57:14.000 That's how you really make it.

01:57:15.000 But they're so deeply programmed by this, I'm sure, because a lot of, The people that follow this anti Jewish conspiracy stuff are, you just have to, it's like a drug.

01:57:23.000 Well, the Showa Foundation on YouTube has like hundreds of five hour long testimonies of various victims of the Holocaust.

01:57:23.000 You just got to go.

01:57:31.000 I've listened to hundreds of them.

01:57:33.000 Take them to one of those museums, one of the Holocaust museums.

01:57:37.000 See how that goes.

01:57:39.000 D. Radwan says I recently heard Elon Musk is predicting his production of Optimist bots will be 10 million per year starting 2027.

01:57:47.000 What jobs do you think that many robots will start doing?

01:57:49.000 That humans regularly do now, and do you think will actually happen that fast?

01:57:53.000 They'll produce them, but they're not gonna be able to do a lot of jobs.

01:57:55.000 They'll be able to carry your groceries in for you, maybe.

01:57:58.000 They're not particularly useful right now because they don't have fine motor control.

01:58:02.000 So they're not gonna make Taco Bell or cheeseburgers because, you know, to be fair, actually, they can make cheeseburgers.

01:58:07.000 They can't make Taco Bell.

01:58:09.000 And I mean this seriously.

01:58:10.000 The challenge with Taco Bell is that it requires more motor control than making a cheeseburger.

01:58:14.000 You can actually make cheeseburgers fully automatic with just a single grip grabs the bun, drops the patty, squirt, squirt, squirt, drops the ingredients.

01:58:22.000 Slap the thing on top, you're done.

01:58:23.000 The thing with Taco Bell, and this is really important, by the way, for the argument, you have to fold things, you've got to put them in the grill.

01:58:32.000 McDonald's has some stuff like that, but for the most part, it can make the burgers, but it can't make hard shell tacos.

01:58:36.000 It would crack them.

01:58:38.000 The Optimist bot probably won't be doing anything like that for some time. 0.99

01:58:42.000 But white color jobs could be eliminated overnight right now. 1.00

01:58:45.000 It would just destroy the economy. 0.99

01:58:46.000 So they're not going to do it.

01:58:50.000 All right.

01:58:50.000 What do we got here?

01:58:52.000 Let's see.

01:58:52.000 Lee Halt says a new based movie that came out called Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die is about AI taking over the world, and it makes incredibly based social commentary about how AI is controlling the world through phones and endless scrolling, turning humans into drones.

01:59:04.000 A man from the future comes back in time to stop the AI.

01:59:07.000 Incredible movie, very fun and pure chaos.

01:59:10.000 But at the end, to beat the AI, his plan is effectively to infest the world with a virus that makes everyone allergic to the magnetic field given up by the technology, like cell phones.

01:59:18.000 When I heard it, I thought, wow, this is an incredible idea.

01:59:21.000 I saw the promo for it.

01:59:23.000 I haven't watched it yet.

01:59:24.000 I don't really much care for that ending.

01:59:25.000 It's kind of silly, but I'll check it out.

01:59:28.000 Sounds like you spoiled it, bro. 0.63

01:59:28.000 Sounds good. 0.63

01:59:30.000 Well, you know, Sam Rockwell's in it.

01:59:30.000 Yeah.

01:59:35.000 Mons Bear says, grab the buns, squirt, squirt, squirt.

01:59:38.000 Phrasing, Tim. 0.54

01:59:38.000 No, I think the phrasing was appropriate. 0.54

01:59:42.000 Vashnik says, the new Avatar of the Last Airbender animated movie that someone leaked like six months out of time was pretty good.

01:59:48.000 It pissed Paramount off.

01:59:49.000 Yeah, so this was crazy.

01:59:51.000 You guys heard about this a couple weeks ago?

01:59:52.000 No.

01:59:53.000 They made an Avatar movie that takes place after The Last Airbender, but before Legend of Korra, where Aang is like a young adult.

01:59:59.000 And it was supposed to be a feature film released in theaters, and everyone's very excited.

02:00:02.000 Avatar is a massive IP worth.

02:00:05.000 Multi billions of dollars.

02:00:07.000 And they then pulled it from theaters and said they were going to release it only on the streaming service.

02:00:12.000 So someone pissed off leaked it on X and it was free to watch it.

02:00:16.000 People downloaded it.

02:00:17.000 Now you can just watch it online because it's been pirated a million times.

02:00:20.000 Yeah, it's a feature length high production movie.

02:00:22.000 And when they pulled it from theaters, somebody was like, there you go, watch it. 0.98

02:00:25.000 That's like the exact opposite of what happened to K pop demon hunters. 0.98

02:00:30.000 What? 0.97

02:00:30.000 They put it in theaters? 0.97

02:00:31.000 Well, no.

02:00:32.000 Well, yeah.

02:00:33.000 First, they decided, oh, it's not worth it.

02:00:36.000 So, we're just going to release it on Netflix and it does gangbusters and then they release it in theaters.

02:00:36.000 Theaters.

02:00:41.000 Well, the thing is, this is really bad that it got leaked because we want more original Avatar IP.

02:00:47.000 We want the story to evolve in an intelligent way.

02:00:49.000 Legend of Core was okay.

02:00:52.000 What they did really well is they showed advancements in technique of the different bendings, like metal bending becomes very common, lava bending becomes a thing.

02:01:02.000 And you start to see where there's an intersection between the different elements.

02:01:05.000 Like, technically, if you can bend stone, you can heat it to lava, but now it's a liquid.

02:01:09.000 So, there's a bunch of really cool stuff they could have done.

02:01:12.000 If you leak the movie and they don't make money from it, they'll stop making stuff.

02:01:15.000 So, this is what happened with Kick Ass 2.

02:01:18.000 Chloe Grace Moretz talked about this.

02:01:19.000 The film was pirated to such an extreme degree, the box office tanked, and they couldn't make part three. 0.79

02:01:24.000 And she was bummed because she wanted to be in part three.

02:01:28.000 So, don't leak stuff.

02:01:29.000 Let people make things, and you pay for it.

02:01:33.000 I guess that about does it, my friends.

02:01:35.000 It's been a great Friday.

02:01:35.000 I hope you had fun.

02:01:36.000 We had fun.

02:01:40.000 You can follow me on X and Instagram at Timcast.

02:01:41.000 Sir, would you like to shout anything out?

02:01:43.000 Yeah.

02:01:44.000 Really appreciate having you having me on.

02:01:47.000 I've been focusing on the Southern Poverty Law Center for years.

02:01:50.000 Wrote the book Making Hate Pay, which is all about, as the title says, the corruption of the Southern Poverty Law Center.

02:02:00.000 Well, before this indictment, I was on to the corruption of this group and have been exposing it for forever.

02:02:06.000 It's been an honor of my life to stand up for the good people who are smeared and put on a map with Klan chapters, a map that inspired terrorist attacks, a map that may have contributed to.

02:02:17.000 The death of Charlie Kirk.

02:02:19.000 God rest his soul.

02:02:20.000 And I just really hope we can finally show the world that this nefarious smear factory has no business informing big tech, has no business getting corporate dollars and corporate sponsorships, has no business influencing the federal government like it did under Joe Biden.

02:02:40.000 So thanks again, Tim.

02:02:42.000 And this has been a great conversation.

02:02:45.000 Thanks for coming.

02:02:46.000 I'm at Ian Crossland.

02:02:47.000 Find me on the internet at Ian Crossland.

02:02:49.000 Happy to be here, Tate Brown.

02:02:51.000 Yeah, you can follow me on X and Instagram at Realtate Brown.

02:02:54.000 Thank you for coming out, man.

02:02:55.000 You're doing fantastic work.

02:02:56.000 Really appreciate it.

02:02:58.000 Carter?

02:02:59.000 Yeah, I'm at Carter Banks everywhere.

02:03:02.000 Just wanted to give a shout out.

02:03:03.000 If you do read Orwell, you should read Road to Wigan Pier and Down and Out in London and Paris.

02:03:11.000 And also, we have Olivia here.

02:03:13.000 Yeah, guys, you can follow me at Olivia Dasovic on Instagram or on X. You should go to timcast.com, hit join us, become a member of our Discord.

02:03:21.000 I'm always in there interacting.

02:03:22.000 We've got a lot of cast members in there.

02:03:23.000 You guys should do that.

02:03:25.000 Right on.

02:03:26.000 So we got Serge X in the Discord.

02:03:27.000 He said, You should make your own animal farm movie, but do it in Chicken City and make Roberto a dictator.

02:03:31.000 That's a really, really good idea.

02:03:34.000 And if anybody wants to do an AI version, we like, I will hire you to do it.

02:03:39.000 All we got to do is take pictures around the whole of the Chicken City and of each chicken, and you should be able to AI animate them.

02:03:46.000 And then it would take some time to do like a short film where Roberto becomes a dictator and then you do some of this allegory stuff.

02:03:52.000 That'd be fun.

02:03:53.000 And I would pay for it and I would make that.

02:03:55.000 So if you're interested, get in the Discord.

02:03:57.000 Thanks for hanging out, everybody.

02:03:58.000 Smash the like button, share the show, and subscribe.
