Transcript

00:00:00.000 Bye now.
00:00:23.000 YouTube broke.
00:00:24.000 Welcome to the show.
00:00:25.000 We got big news.
00:00:26.000 Anthony Blinken says NATO is going to induct Ukraine.
00:00:30.000 It's gonna happen.
00:00:31.000 So, you know, World War III.
00:00:32.000 And then, of course, with Israel and Iran.
00:00:36.000 Iran threatening retaliation.
00:00:37.000 Israel saying, hey, if they retaliate, we're going to war.
00:00:39.000 So, you know, there's probably World War III.
00:00:42.000 And now you got the Biden administration and they're turning on Israel because this World Central Kitchen fiasco has really soured Israel's support around the world.
00:00:50.000 Even Donald Trump is warning Israel about this stuff.
00:00:53.000 Jill Biden apparently told Joe Biden to stop Stop it now.
00:00:58.000 And so there's been some finger wagging, but you know what I think?
00:01:01.000 I think Israel doesn't care.
00:01:03.000 I think that Israel's attitude right now is, we're about to enter into a major war with Iran, and should that happen, it doesn't matter what you think about what we've done, because that's it.
00:01:14.000 You're locked in, baby.
00:01:15.000 It's gonna get crazy.
00:01:17.000 The Ukraine stuff's getting pretty crazy.
00:01:19.000 Seems like war is ramping up.
00:01:20.000 We had this story from a couple weeks ago, where apparently, There's one Eastern European official who said that NATO personnel are already operating in Ukraine.
00:01:29.000 They're just not fighting in Ukraine.
00:01:31.000 So military personnel are there on the ground.
00:01:33.000 Which Vladimir Putin said was a serious red line.
00:01:36.000 So I guess we'll talk about that.
00:01:38.000 And then we do have a bunch of other news.
00:01:40.000 Donald Trump is set to raise a record amount of money for any presidential campaign this weekend with this massive fundraiser that will dwarf Joe Biden's Lizzo fundraiser.
00:01:50.000 So we'll get into all that.
00:01:51.000 And just before we do, so this weird thing happened when we launched the YouTube stream.
00:01:56.000 It's never happened before.
00:01:57.000 Ever.
00:01:58.000 YouTube duplicated the stream and created a secondary blank stream for some reason.
00:02:04.000 No idea why or how.
00:02:05.000 It just did.
00:02:07.000 And then, we went live on some weird random channel.
00:02:10.000 On some weird... Totally... Totally weird.
00:02:14.000 Anyway, we're gonna talk about news.
00:02:16.000 Before we get started, head over to castbrew.com.
00:02:18.000 Buy coffee!
00:02:18.000 Why?
00:02:19.000 Because coffee is delicious.
00:02:20.000 And we have some pretty dang good coffee.
00:02:22.000 Appalachian Nights is everyone's favorite.
00:02:24.000 We can't stop selling the stuff.
00:02:26.000 But of course, Rise with Roberto Jr.
00:02:27.000 A Light Roast is also very delicious.
00:02:29.000 And Stand Your Grounds is now rising up in the ranks as more and more people...
00:02:34.000 Try Stand Your Grounds.
00:02:35.000 Stand Your Grounds is very similar to Appalachian Nights, but it's a medium roast, so I definitely recommend you try some of these other blends.
00:02:41.000 But the best part is when you support Casper Coffee, you're supporting us, it's our company, and it supports the growth of our physical Casper locations.
00:02:49.000 Where we will have the ideas to create networking spaces where people can physically come, hang out, and share ideas.
00:02:55.000 And the first one's in Martinsburg, West Virginia.
00:02:57.000 We already had one live event there.
00:02:59.000 It was really, really great.
00:03:00.000 We're gonna have more of those.

00:03:33.000 Yes, it is great to be here.
00:03:34.000 Thank you, Daniel Turner, Power of the Future, America's favorite fossil fuel advocate, preeminent sheep farmer.
00:03:41.000 We'll get into that hopefully at the very end.
00:03:43.000 And everything we will talk about in foreign policy, I can give you an energy underpinning.
00:03:48.000 So I'm excited about the conversation.
00:03:49.000 Thanks for having me.
00:03:50.000 Absolutely.
00:03:51.000 Hannah Clare's hanging out.
00:03:52.000 Hey, it's good to be back.
00:03:53.000 I'm Hannah-Claire Brimlow.
00:03:54.000 I'm a writer for scnr.com.
00:03:56.000 That's Scanner News.
00:03:56.000 I'm so happy to be here with an energy and sheep farming lens on the table.
00:04:01.000 I feel like we don't talk about sheep enough.
00:04:04.000 Libby's here.
00:04:05.000 I'm Libby Emmons.
00:04:06.000 I'm the editor with Postmillennial and Human Events.
00:04:08.000 Glad to be here, everybody.
00:04:12.000 Let's go!
00:04:13.000 We have this story from Yahoo News.
00:04:15.000 Anthony Blinken on Israel.
00:04:17.000 If we don't see changes, we need to see in Gaza, there'll be changes in our own policy.
00:04:23.000 Now it seems like a fairly weak statement.
00:04:26.000 But there's been a lot of pressure coming from the Biden administration after this scandal involving aid workers from World Central Kitchen, which appear to be they appear to be intentionally targeted.
00:04:36.000 There were three vehicles clearly marked.
00:04:38.000 And according to the aid workers, they had been in communication with Israel about their movements when they were killed in an airstrike, including an Australian citizen and an American citizen.
00:04:48.000 Jill Biden privately urged Joe Biden, stop it now.
00:04:52.000 This is crazy.
00:04:53.000 Even Donald Trump, let's see if I can pull up this.
00:04:55.000 Here we go.
00:04:56.000 Trump says Israel has to get war in Gaza over fast and warns it is losing the PR war.
00:05:02.000 I mean, it's getting crazy.
00:05:04.000 Now you've got Trump.
00:05:05.000 He's been warning Israel.
00:05:06.000 Now Joe Biden's basically saying, I don't know about all this.
00:05:09.000 And the reason why is because Democrats are bleeding support.
00:05:13.000 They're bleeding young, young voters.
00:05:15.000 There was this initiative in New York, what was it called, Leave It Blank, I think, where they said in the primary not to vote for Joe Biden, Leave It Blank, because of their support for Israel.
00:05:25.000 That was true in Michigan, too.
00:05:26.000 You had Uncommitted and Minnesota and Washington State, all the Uncommitted campaign.
00:05:30.000 So now Jill Biden, who is probably more president than Joe Biden is, is in a private meeting telling Joe, stop it, stop it now.
00:05:41.000 I don't think there's any... I don't think... I think Israel royally screwed up with the World Central Kitchen thing.
00:05:47.000 You guys follow that story?
00:05:48.000 Oh yeah, absolutely.
00:05:50.000 I'm always amazed at the role Jill Biden has.
00:05:54.000 The Easter egg role, she gave most of the interviews to the press.
00:05:57.000 She was on one of the morning shows this morning.
00:05:59.000 I forget which one.
00:06:01.000 I can see their faces.
00:06:02.000 I don't remember if it was ABC or CBS.
00:06:05.000 Here she is... It's the same thing.
00:06:06.000 Yeah, that's a good point.
00:06:08.000 Well, just assume it was the view.
00:06:10.000 But it's remarkable.
00:06:12.000 I mean, she wasn't elected to anything.
00:06:15.000 So there is this ongoing problem that Joe Biden, is he really the president?
00:06:19.000 Is he calling the shots?
00:06:21.000 Antony Blinken clearly is calling the shots on foreign policy.
00:06:24.000 And I guess when it comes to what's coming out of the White House, Joe Biden is now, because I don't know what Joe is doing.
00:06:29.000 No one knows what Joe is doing.
00:06:30.000 Joe doesn't know what Joe is doing.
00:06:31.000 Joe doesn't know what Joe is doing.
00:06:33.000 Now, more important than Joe Biden or Antony Blinken.
00:06:36.000 This is the most alarming.
00:06:38.000 Colbert's message to Netanyahu after World Central Kitchen deaths?
00:06:42.000 Consider ending the war.
00:06:44.000 Now, when Stephen Colbert says it, that's when it matters, because Colbert is more president than Joe or Jill.
00:06:50.000 Yeah, that's true.
00:06:51.000 Well, he's actually more the regime spokesperson, but I would imagine Colbert probably has more authority.
00:06:56.000 And it's a way of taking the temperature.
00:06:58.000 I mean, when I was listening to NPR and all these mainstream outlets report on this attack on these aid workers, they're sort of like, yes, it was known that these trucks were going to move through here, and it seems like there's no way out of this one.
00:07:13.000 This seems like it was completely intentional.
00:07:15.000 How do you spin this situation?
00:07:17.000 And even Israel came out.
00:07:19.000 Netanyahu said it was an unfortunate accident.
00:07:22.000 Yeah, they apologized for it.
00:07:24.000 He said they do great work.
00:07:25.000 It was an accident.
00:07:26.000 And it's like, how did you accidentally strike three vehicles in separate locations?
00:07:29.000 That you knew were going there?
00:07:31.000 Like, it doesn't really make sense.
00:07:33.000 But it is interesting.
00:07:34.000 When Colbert says, consider ending the war, I wonder what he is specifically asking for.
00:07:38.000 Like, what does ending the war look like right now?
00:07:41.000 That's a really good question.
00:07:42.000 And I think it's something that Americans are not really sure what that looks like.
00:07:45.000 And I don't think Democrats know what that looks like.
00:07:47.000 Does ending the war mean just no more campaigns in Gaza?
00:07:51.000 Just leave it alone?
00:07:52.000 Or does it mean opening up the border to workers again and giving passes again?
00:07:57.000 What does it look like?
00:07:58.000 But don't so many Democrat talking points, are they vague, empty slogans like fix the climate?
00:08:04.000 Sure.
00:08:05.000 What does that look like?
00:08:06.000 They don't know what the end of the Ukraine war looks like either.
00:08:09.000 They say, well, we're in it until the end, but they can't tell you what the end looks like.
00:08:13.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:08:14.000 I like the ceasefire now thing because it's like, okay, please elaborate.
00:08:19.000 And they typically say Israel should stop shooting.
00:08:21.000 And it's like, and then what about Hamas?
00:08:23.000 Should Hamas?
00:08:24.000 Stop shooting?
00:08:24.000 Should they release the hostages?
00:08:25.000 No, they should, they should.
00:08:26.000 These are questions.
00:08:27.000 And the issue is releasing the hostages isn't a part of the ceasefire.
00:08:30.000 So I think, you know, it was AOC who said, yes, we want Hamas to stop firing as well.
00:08:34.000 Because AOC's actually moved rightwards as she tried to appease the establishment.
00:08:39.000 But still within the ceasefire thing is not the release the hostages and surrender.
00:08:44.000 It had been early on.
00:08:45.000 It had been, you know, release the hostages, have a ceasefire.
00:08:47.000 And the ceasefire agreements had been involving hostage releases.
00:08:53.000 We don't talk about them anymore.
00:08:54.000 Are they even alive anymore?
00:08:56.000 I don't see an end to this, right?
00:08:58.000 Because the pro-Israel side says the war ends when Hamas surrenders.
00:09:02.000 Right.
00:09:02.000 And Hamas is like, we're never surrendering.
00:09:04.000 This is a religious calling.
00:09:07.000 And the Palestinian Authority, aren't they like sort of backdoor in it with Hamas at this point, too?
00:09:12.000 Yeah.
00:09:13.000 And it's so odd that Stephen Colbert would make such a vague statement because he is a political and foreign policy expert.
00:09:20.000 He is.
00:09:20.000 So the fact that he's weighed in, you know, I'm surprised that he would make this guess.
00:09:24.000 Well, that's why I ask, you know, I'm sure Stephen Colbert has a very specific plan.
00:09:27.000 When he says, you know, stop the war, he knows exactly what he's asking for.
00:09:31.000 And it's definitely not an empty slogan.
00:09:33.000 Colbert elaborated saying this is not an isolated incident.
00:09:36.000 Yeah.
00:09:36.000 Has anyone asked Nate Bargatze or Bill Burr what they think of the circumstances, right?
00:09:41.000 I mean, if just other comedians are allowed to chime in on foreign policy.
00:09:44.000 Well, of course.
00:09:45.000 I mean, I want to know what Joe Rogan thinks.
00:09:46.000 Well, we know what Michael Rapaport thinks.
00:09:48.000 I mean, he's been hanging out, you know, telling us that he's ready to, you know, voting for pig dick Donald Trump.
00:09:53.000 That's on the table.
00:09:55.000 He's in such a weird political space.
00:09:57.000 He is in a weird spot.
00:09:58.000 He's hilarious.
00:09:59.000 I think he's a hilarious guy.
00:10:00.000 Look, this is going to be difficult to throw out there, but I will.
00:10:04.000 War is hell.
00:10:05.000 There is always collateral deaths and damages.
00:10:07.000 We have to remember, Obama in 2008 bombed a wedding accidentally.
00:10:12.000 50-some-odd civilians died in Afghanistan.
00:10:17.000 Just a couple years ago, President Biden accidentally, in the Afghanistan withdrawal, bombed something.
00:10:22.000 About 15 civilians died.
00:10:24.000 Obama accidentally killed a lot of people, including American citizens.
00:10:27.000 It's crazy what you can accomplish by accident.
00:10:29.000 There is collateral damage.
00:10:30.000 There is more outrage over this than there is of Biden's Afghan withdrawal, where civilians died unnecessarily.
00:10:39.000 People like to reference that MASH quote.
00:10:41.000 Which one?
00:10:41.000 War is not hell.
00:10:43.000 War is war.
00:10:44.000 In hell, everyone is evil.
00:10:45.000 In war, there are children.
00:10:47.000 Oh yeah, MASH was such a good show.
00:10:48.000 I think that was MASH, because someone mentioned it in the Super Chat before, and it's a great quote.
00:10:52.000 Great show.
00:10:54.000 War is terrifying.
00:10:55.000 And so this is the biggest challenge with all of it.
00:10:58.000 That's like Mother Courage, the Brecht.
00:11:00.000 If we're going to take a holistic view of this and take politics and morals out of the question, we'll talk about raw resources and ideological positions.
00:11:09.000 Israel loses when they blow up aid workers, when they kill numerous aid workers in three different vehicles, because you're going to lose public support.
00:11:19.000 The people will vote against the politicians who would provide the aid, and so Biden's like, we're losing too many voters and we've got an election coming up in November.
00:11:26.000 Okay, push the brakes down.
00:11:28.000 Jill Biden said, stop it, stop it now.
00:11:30.000 Yeah, she didn't say it because aid workers died.
00:11:31.000 She said it because she's like, look at our numbers!
00:11:33.000 They're going down!
00:11:35.000 She's like, we have more granddaughters who have to get married in the White House.
00:11:37.000 If you mess this up for all of us, I will be really mad.
00:11:40.000 How many grandchildren they have?
00:11:42.000 They have!
00:11:43.000 I see what you're doing!
00:11:45.000 I mean, the real question is how many granddaughters they acknowledge.
00:11:50.000 Right.
00:11:50.000 That is the question.
00:11:51.000 Just depends on the day.
00:11:51.000 Yeah.
00:11:52.000 That's so sad for Hunter Biden's love child.
00:11:55.000 Mm-hmm.
00:11:55.000 Little Navy?
00:11:56.000 Oh no, it's the best thing that could happen.
00:11:58.000 Navy.
00:11:59.000 Navy.
00:11:59.000 The best thing that could happen to Navy is that she's disassociated from that family.
00:12:03.000 Run, Navy, run!
00:12:04.000 Yeah, but it would never stay overnight where there's shared showers.
00:12:07.000 It could be like a cool Game of Thrones thing where Navy snow grows up and then inherits like the corrupt Biden fortune.
00:12:15.000 You know, it's like Navy actually was a Biden the whole time.
00:12:18.000 She's the only one who's not in jail.
00:12:19.000 And Hunter was like, no, you can't give her my last name.
00:12:23.000 And her mom had sued over this saying, you know, the Biden name carries influence and it could help her later in life, which as, you know, the other side of the aisle, we're like, really?
00:12:32.000 You want her to be a Biden?
00:12:33.000 But I see what she's saying.
00:12:35.000 And Hunter fought tooth and nail because he was pretending this child didn't exist, I guess.
00:12:38.000 I think that's so rude.
00:12:39.000 Isn't that horrible?
00:12:40.000 It is.
00:12:41.000 Rude.
00:12:41.000 But you raise a great point, though, of there is a PR battle.
00:12:44.000 It's what President Trump was saying.
00:12:45.000 There is a PR battle of the war.
00:12:47.000 And for those who remember, that was one of the problems the Bush administration ran into, was that the war in Iraq dragged and it dragged and it dragged.
00:12:54.000 And it got to the point, when is this war over?
00:12:57.000 When is victory declared?
00:12:58.000 And no one could define victory anymore.
00:13:00.000 And then it turned out they had lied to get us into it.
00:13:02.000 Remember the yellow cake and Colin Powell had to go to the UN and be like, we lied about that one.
00:13:08.000 And so there is a PR battle, and how much faster is social media now than it was 20 years ago when that launched?
00:13:13.000 Yeah, I don't remember social media from 20 years ago.
00:13:16.000 Exactly.
00:13:16.000 So there is a PR battle that Israel has to face.
00:13:22.000 They want a quick, agile, and a quick end, but Israel has to define what end looks like.
00:13:28.000 And if end is Hamas surrendering, well, that's not going to happen.
00:13:33.000 I think Israel knows what end looks like for them and they don't want to say it.
00:13:37.000 Yeah.
00:13:37.000 Because I think it's probably pretty ugly, which, you know, I mean, if you're fighting for your own survival, like, I don't blame you for having ugly solutions as to how you're going to maintain your survival no matter what.
00:13:47.000 But you were going to lose a PR war.
00:13:49.000 But the U.S.
00:13:50.000 isn't going to like what that looks like.
00:13:52.000 The Democrat, the left of the U.S.
00:13:55.000 is not going to.
00:13:56.000 There's a lot of people who are going to support Israel, no matter how ugly it gets.
00:14:01.000 Right, for sure.
00:14:02.000 Without a doubt.
00:14:03.000 But the left isn't, and that's what you were saying, Tim.
00:14:05.000 The far left isn't.
00:14:05.000 The far left isn't, and that's Joe Biden's base, and those are his door knockers, and that's his crowd of enthusiasm and sign waivers and balloon blower uppers, and if you lose those folks... And they are.
00:14:16.000 And they are.
00:14:16.000 Yeah, they're losing volunteers, they're losing voters, and for a variety of reasons.
00:14:20.000 James Carville has warned they're losing losing young men. Yeah, and I think the reason they lose
00:14:24.000 young men and I want to shout out all the leftists who love to just run the incel narrative
00:14:29.000 is because these young guys are struggling to to grow up. They want to move out of
00:14:34.000 their parents home. They want to get cars. They want to get jobs. They want to get
00:14:37.000 married. They can't because of this because of this environment created by leftist social
00:14:41.000 progressive policies as well as a crippled economy that favors older people and wealthy individuals.
00:14:47.000 Yeah, that's sort of an amazing thing the situation with young people not being able to to
00:14:52.000 grow up.
00:14:53.000 I've been thinking about that a lot because, you know, I'm like this Gen Z, Gen X person, not a Gen Z person, my goodness, that's my child.
00:15:03.000 We identify a lot.
00:15:04.000 But, you know, I was only able to buy a house last year.
00:15:08.000 And when I look at my brothers or like, you know, my littler sisters and stuff, it's like, What kind of world are they coming into?
00:15:16.000 How are they going to achieve?
00:15:17.000 And when I was a kid the whole thing was work hard, American dream, have a family, buy a house, be independent, be self-sustaining.
00:15:25.000 And how do you even get there now?
00:15:26.000 The only thing the government offers is more handouts and dependents.
00:15:30.000 I think the end result of this era is going to be a massive shift of Gen Z rightward.
00:15:38.000 So we're seeing that with young men already.
00:15:40.000 The polls show that young men are becoming substantially more conservative and women are becoming more liberal.
00:15:45.000 But guess what that means in 10 years?
00:15:47.000 Those women are going to flip on a dime.
00:15:50.000 I'll tell you why.
00:15:51.000 So there was this clip from the Whatever podcast that I talked about earlier where a woman, a young woman, she's like in her 20s, says something like, men don't approach women anymore.
00:16:00.000 And I'm like, right.
00:16:01.000 Do you guys remember what happened 10 years ago?
00:16:03.000 10 hours of walking through New York as a woman.
00:16:05.000 Where in this video, there are instances where a guy says, hey, how you doing?
00:16:10.000 There's one instance where a guy's like, have a nice day.
00:16:13.000 and they and young so you got a 13 14 year old kid 10 years ago and he's told from that video 50 million views do not tell women how do you do do not say to them how's it going don't talk to them don't ask him for anything 10 years later they're like you're not allowed to do that you can't go up to women You can't ask a girl out.
00:16:29.000 You can't ask a girl out.
00:16:31.000 Now I got bad news and I really do hope, I say this every time that the left pulls these clips, I really really hope that they run all the segments in the world saying Tim Pool's an incel and whatever they want to say because the issue is 10 years from now when those young women are 35 they're going to be going to the guys who are more conservative and listening to Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson and they're going to be like I don't have much time left Just who do I have to be for you?
00:16:56.000 So the young guys right now are saying, I can't get in my parents' basement, I can't get a car, I can't get a house, I can't make money.
00:17:03.000 Now they're listening to people like Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate, and they're in a, Peterson and Tate are in different spaces, but they have a similar thing about being responsible, like carrying heavy things.
00:17:13.000 Tate's a bit more aggressive and weird, Peterson's more academic, but young guys are listening.
00:17:17.000 Now you've got Gen Z males moving towards the right, And what's going to happen is when Gen Z hits 35, Gen Z guys are going to say, I have all the time in the world.
00:17:28.000 And Gen Z women are going to say, I've only got a few years left.
00:17:32.000 So that's going to put pressure on them to try and find guys that they can pair up with.
00:17:38.000 But guess what?
00:17:39.000 If two to one, the guys are conservative, two to one women are liberal, the liberal women are going to struggle.
00:17:45.000 They're going to say, no, no, I don't want a conservative guy.
00:17:48.000 I want a liberal guy.
00:17:48.000 And the guy's going to go, I got 30 more years before I have to worry about having a kid, so you take all the time you need to figure it out.
00:17:54.000 No, the women are going to be forced to actually make compromises.
00:17:56.000 Well, but the other thing too is like, wasn't it like 30% of Gen Z adults identify as queer anyway?
00:18:03.000 It's a high number.
00:18:04.000 It's like, I think it, yeah, I think it's like 28%.
00:18:07.000 So perhaps they're not all really queer, probably for a lot of them it's political designation and kind of trendy for the most part, but you're also going to have a huge booming fertility industry, which we do have.
00:18:20.000 So IVF is going to continue to grow, except perhaps in Alabama, you know, people can go other places.
00:18:26.000 You're going to have surrogacies continue to grow.
00:18:29.000 I mean, Paris Hilton had their kids- Michigan just decriminalized paid surrogacy.
00:18:33.000 It was the only state to have a ban.
00:18:33.000 Right.
00:18:34.000 Now they're like, just kidding, it's fine.
00:18:35.000 Yeah, New York legalized commercial surrogacy.
00:18:39.000 The commercial surrogacy industry globally is a big deal, you know, like doing the Handmaid's Tale thing to the women in the Global South.
00:18:47.000 And so you're going to have a lot of these... In Ukraine.
00:18:49.000 Ukraine is a place where there's tons of surrogacy.
00:18:50.000 Well, that's where you got cheap white eggs, which that's not my phrase.
00:18:50.000 Ukraine.
00:18:53.000 That's from a Radiotopia in 2010 from NPR.
00:18:57.000 They did a whole episode on cheap white eggs because you had this gay Israeli couple bought eggs from Ukraine and then impregnated an Indian woman in Nepal in order to get their child because surrogacy was illegal for Indian women In India you couldn't do it, but surrogacy was illegal in Nepal for Nepalese women.
00:19:20.000 So anyway, Indian women went to Nepal to be surrogates, and they were basically in these like surrogacy brothels, you know?
00:19:26.000 And then what happened was there was a huge earthquake in Nepal, and so the Israeli dads went to get their kid, but they couldn't prove that it was their kid.
00:19:34.000 It was a whole thing, cheap white eggs.
00:19:36.000 Anyways, we're gonna have a whole bunch of manufactured orphan children as well being raised by strangers.
00:19:45.000 Yeah, I mean this is, so one of the things that comes up a little from time to time right now is embryo adoption.
00:19:50.000 So if you go through IVF and you have extra embryos, you know... Radiolab, not Radiotopia.
00:19:54.000 I said the wrong thing.
00:19:54.000 Yeah.
00:19:56.000 You can decide what to do with them and this becomes another part of surrogacy, right?
00:20:01.000 You have someone who could buy theoretically eggs that someone else created and you could either carry them yourself, you could hire a surrogate.
00:20:07.000 The fertility industry is the Wild West right now.
00:20:10.000 And, you know, I think there are a lot of couples that need assistance having kids and I don't condemn IVF, you know, blanket, but I think that the more complicated it gets and the more we sort of mess with science, the more ethical questions we create and then we try not to answer.
00:20:25.000 I think we are starting to see phase one of the phenomena I described.
00:20:29.000 Where you have young guys becoming conservative, so young women who want to have kids and are running out of time are thinking, okay, I need to have a kid.
00:20:36.000 So what's happening now is you have these stories about women who go on Facebook, and there are these Facebook groups where they buy dudes' genetic material, if you know what I mean, so that they can be a single mother somewhere else.
00:20:48.000 Turkey baster, they sell them at Target.
00:20:49.000 They have fertility kits at Target that women can buy.
00:20:52.000 I think that's phase one.
00:20:53.000 I think phase two is gonna be, because these are millennial women, who are basically, you know, in their mid-thirties.
00:20:59.000 And I'll stress this, I am not disparaging these women in any way.
00:21:03.000 I am not questioning their life choices.
00:21:04.000 And I know the left is gonna be like, hey look, you run those clips all day and night.
00:21:09.000 I want as many young men as possible to see it.
00:21:12.000 Because this is a problem that's happening right now, and the more people that are aware of what's going on, maybe it'll wake people up and they might break loose from this problem.
00:21:20.000 But I think what happens for Gen Z and younger, Gen Z is going to see what happened to millennial women, and they're going to go, oh hell no.
00:21:27.000 There's already tons of millennial women writing articles being like, feminism lied to me.
00:21:31.000 Now what do you think, that's a 23-year-old woman and she's gonna be like, ooh.
00:21:34.000 Not all of them are gonna go that way because they are going more liberal, but then Gen Alpha will enter their 20s, and then Gen Alpha's gonna be like, I'm not falling for that trick.
00:21:42.000 I think that's really true, and one of the biggest issues is the question of when women wake up to the consequences of fertility and the fact that it's different from men's, right?
00:21:51.000 Men can have children for years and years and years and years, whereas women- You can be 70!
00:21:54.000 Right!
00:21:54.000 Like, what is it, Dustin Hoffman, Robert De Niro?
00:21:56.000 Ben Franklin was having kids in his 80s.
00:22:00.000 My dad was having kids into his 60s, I think.
00:22:03.000 I mean, like, it's just something that happens, team.
00:22:06.000 But the thing is, women have different consequences than men.
00:22:08.000 But I can tell you, just anecdotally, among my millennial friends, they have looked at me and said, oh, well, 42 isn't that old to start trying to have a kid.
00:22:16.000 And it's like, team, yes, it is.
00:22:17.000 We all need to wake up 100%.
00:22:19.000 But just because Mindy Kaling said, you know, the best thing parents can do for their college-age daughters is to offer to freeze their eggs, women think it can just go on forever.
00:22:27.000 The other part is that IVF, all fertility treatment, is It's not a walk in the park.
00:22:32.000 No, it's a whole crazy messed up thing.
00:22:33.000 It's a whole crazy thing you're injecting.
00:22:34.000 You have to like jab yourself with hormones.
00:22:37.000 The thing that people should listen to, I'm trying to think of what it's called.
00:22:39.000 The York Times just did this long-form podcast on a fertility clinic in Yale.
00:22:45.000 Is that the one where the nurse stole the oxycontin or whatever?
00:22:49.000 It was fentanyl.
00:22:50.000 She was stealing fentanyl.
00:22:50.000 And so when you go through IVF, you know, they give you a bunch of drugs so that your eggs get really big and they can harvest them, but you have to have a retrieval.
00:22:56.000 Which is a painful experience.
00:22:57.000 Extremely painful.
00:22:58.000 It involves needles, lots of shoving, whatever.
00:23:00.000 So they give women fentanyl when they do it.
00:23:02.000 And the nurse was swapping it out and these women were going through this screaming in agony.
00:23:06.000 And the doctor was like, weird, sometimes fentanyl doesn't work.
00:23:09.000 And it turned out this nurse was stealing it.
00:23:11.000 And then these women had to pay tens of thousands of dollars to do this.
00:23:14.000 And also they're being told, well, you have to do this retrieval right now because the science, you know, it times up, you have to, otherwise your body releases the eggs and you've just flushed tens of thousands of dollars on the drain.
00:23:23.000 Like IVF is not in a walk in the park.
00:23:25.000 And I think telling women, don't worry, Science will help you have a kid later, science is so great, is actually putting them in harm's way when they don't necessarily have to be.
00:23:33.000 I think we should have a conversation, especially with the youngest generation of women, saying like, kids don't end your life, and if you have them while you're still building your career or doing whatever you want to do, it's not over.
00:23:43.000 But there are risks with delaying having children if that's a goal for you.
00:23:47.000 Yeah, the other thing about the young Gen Z's is that the majority of them are issuing college, and they're choosing trades instead.
00:23:56.000 So they're not starting adulthood in debt?
00:23:58.000 What a crazy idea!
00:23:59.000 My son was just today, we were chatting, maybe it was yesterday, and he was like, what are trades?
00:24:05.000 And I was like, you know, it's like plumbing, air conditioner repair, carpentry, and he's like, oh, that sounds pretty good.
00:24:10.000 Pays really well, and yeah, exactly.
00:24:12.000 That's what I was telling him, I was like, it pays pretty well.
00:24:15.000 Always demand.
00:24:16.000 I mean, look, if we get a pipe leak on a weekend, we're screwed.
00:24:20.000 So if there's somebody who knows how to do it and we find them, they're getting paid.
00:24:23.000 Yeah.
00:24:24.000 I told my son, I was like, look up how to repaint a bathroom because that's your summer job.
00:24:30.000 But there was that great clip of James Carville when he was talking about, you know, men are leaving the Democrat Party and we can't understand why.
00:24:36.000 And he said, you know, we tell them not to drink beer and not to eat meat and they're being constantly nagged.
00:24:41.000 And all these folks on the right were like, I don't know what James was talking about, and I'm screaming at the TV like, this is pretty obvious, right?
00:24:48.000 Like, you're emasculating young men on the regular, so they're like, I don't want to be part of this party.
00:24:53.000 I don't want to be part of, like, the no cars, no guns, genderqueer obsessed, trans obsessed, like, you know what?
00:25:00.000 I think I'm done with being a Democrat right now.
00:25:03.000 We were visiting some family friends and they had kids and they said,
00:25:08.000 we did nothing to our young kids who are like, you know, like four or five.
00:25:14.000 And they were like, the boy just started smashing things and the girl started taking the things he
00:25:18.000 would smash and protecting them and running away. Like, they just did it.
00:25:21.000 One of my favorite social media posts that comes up every once in a while is this dad being like, no, we wanted our daughter to have all kinds of toys.
00:25:27.000 So we gave her Barbies.
00:25:28.000 We also gave her Tonka trucks.
00:25:30.000 And he's posting this picture of the Tonka trucks tucked into a doll's bed.
00:25:35.000 But studies show that from early ages, infants, like newborn infants, less than 24 hours old, Boys will look at mechanical objects, girls will start tracking faces.
00:25:44.000 Like, the interests of the brain, which are good and healthy, begin really early on.
00:25:48.000 You can't tell me a 24-year-old infant has been conditioned to think, oh, you're supposed to like this bit.
00:25:53.000 That's how strong the patriarchy is, Hannah Clayton.
00:25:56.000 When I was a kid, my mom was, um, I always wanted Barbie dolls.
00:26:04.000 I was like, really into Barbies.
00:26:05.000 And my mom always wanted me to like, have not Barbies.
00:26:08.000 So we'd go to FAO Schwartz in New York, which is where she lived.
00:26:11.000 And she'd be like, okay, you could get a Barbie and she'd roll her eyes, but you also have to get one of these other toys.
00:26:16.000 And she'd like, make me get Transformers, which are cool, right?
00:26:20.000 Transformers are cool.
00:26:21.000 So I'd be like, okay, but I'd still just end up having the Barbies go on a date with the Transformers.
00:26:27.000 All of my Barbies married a G.I.
00:26:29.000 Joe.
00:26:31.000 It's just the way it worked out.
00:26:33.000 Let's bring it back to the more horrible news stories.
00:26:37.000 So following that Israel story, we have this from CNN.
00:26:40.000 Iran vows revenge as it accuses Israel of deadly airstrike on Syria consulate and deepening Middle East crisis, to which we have this from OSINT Defender.
00:26:51.000 Israel has notified the U.S.
00:26:52.000 that if Iran makes the decision to target the territory of Israel, they will be forced to respond.
00:26:57.000 And of course, Netanyahu warns of enormous implications for U.S.
00:27:00.000 security if Israel isn't victorious.
00:27:04.000 It feels like, oh boy.
00:27:08.000 Whatever they do, whatever Jill Biden says or Stephen Colbert, Netanyahu's attitude is probably, I do not care.
00:27:15.000 Because the US has no choice.
00:27:18.000 The US has put itself in this position through supporting Israel in all of its actions.
00:27:25.000 Israel can do anything.
00:27:27.000 And if Iran strikes, the U.S.
00:27:28.000 is going to war on Israel's behalf.
00:27:30.000 I'm just so glad we have a foreign policy expert in the White House.
00:27:35.000 This was one of his resume points was, I've been doing foreign policy.
00:27:39.000 I know these people.
00:27:40.000 I know them by name.
00:27:41.000 I've sat in rooms with them.
00:27:43.000 No, the president, right?
00:27:45.000 He was the chair of the foreign policy.
00:27:48.000 Committee I'm a foreign affairs committee. I mean Joe Biden was the foreign policy genius and the world is crumbling
00:27:54.000 around us I mean we haven't even talked about the Western Hemisphere
00:27:57.000 how the Western Hemisphere is crumbling world is literally on fire and
00:28:01.000 And we have it's intentional. It's like just the way I like.
00:28:05.000 Yeah, but maybe markable from the ashes of the old They shall build a new so the idea being
00:28:10.000 You know, we look at the illegal immigrants coming to United States. They're being given housing
00:28:16.000 I was watching Fox earlier, and the things they're given, it's insane.
00:28:19.000 I think it's Chicago gives them guaranteed full coverage health care.
00:28:22.000 Yeah.
00:28:23.000 And tuberculosis, though, to be fair.
00:28:24.000 Yeah, there's tuberculosis for sure.
00:28:26.000 But what they're doing is, it's the equity play.
00:28:30.000 Cut off the tall grass.
00:28:31.000 If someone's a wealthy American, strip them of a generational wealth.
00:28:34.000 If you're Gen Z, you don't get your inheritance.
00:28:36.000 If your parents died, squatters will take your house.
00:28:39.000 Then, when the criminal aliens show up, we'll give them benefits to put everyone in the same bracket so they can create a normalized working class base of poor people.
00:28:49.000 So they destroy everything, force everybody to the same level, and then start a new system on top of it.
00:28:55.000 First they destroyed the American working class, and then they're gonna replace them with this slave labor class.
00:29:00.000 Yeah, but the Americans are going to be in it.
00:29:03.000 Yeah, the Americans, though, don't have any skills.
00:29:05.000 Like, do you see what's going on now with the EVs?
00:29:07.000 So they're pushing all of the, they're continuing to push the Green New Deal and the EVs and stuff, but American factory workers are struggling.
00:29:15.000 Yeah, well, we don't make hardly any EVs.
00:29:17.000 We make them in China, we make them in Mexico.
00:29:20.000 We're just closing those jobs out completely.
00:29:21.000 And then even California, right, their $20 minimum wage, they're just going to get around it by hiring illegals and paying them under the books.
00:29:28.000 Well, that's what they do.
00:29:29.000 Off book, exactly.
00:29:30.000 And what happened to Energy just go to a place where they're like converting a factory I think the assumption that you will eat the bugs and you'll be happy is probably wrong.
00:29:40.000 I think you'll eat the bugs.
00:29:41.000 I don't think you'll be happy.
00:29:42.000 That's the obvious thing.
00:29:43.000 But I think the real plan in destroying the U.S.
00:29:44.000 that's okay, you can go ahead and cut me off. Thank you, Lippy.
00:29:47.000 I appreciate that. I think the assumption that you will eat the bugs and you'll be happy
00:29:53.000 is probably wrong. I think you'll eat the bugs, I don't think you'll be happy, that's the obvious
00:29:57.000 thing. But I think the real plan in destroying the US economy is so that American citizens will
00:30:02.000 be at the same economic standard of the third world, intentionally. I think so too.
00:30:06.000 I was listening to this interesting conversation between Bhatia Angarsargon and Barry Weiss on Barry Weiss's podcast.
00:30:12.000 And Bhatia was talking about how essentially what happened was you had the Democrats where their base were union American workers, you know, people who believed in the dignity of work, wanted a good job, decent condition, good working conditions and a good wage, you know, like being a janitor is still a dignified job if you have good working conditions and a good wage, nothing wrong with work, you know.
00:30:33.000 And she said that the Democratic base was essentially replaced by college-educated professionals.
00:30:39.000 And so if you look at the priorities of the Democratic Party, they're no longer dignitive work, good wages, union jobs, good working conditions.
00:30:49.000 Now it's climate change, EV cars, staying in your house, and making sure that there is a very low class of people who will do all the work for you for very little money.
00:31:00.000 Yeah.
00:31:02.000 Going back to the Iran thing right now, there were so many opportunities in the last decade that Iran could have been, I hate to say, toppled regime change.
00:31:12.000 But there was the Green Revolution that was happening.
00:31:15.000 Obama remained silent.
00:31:17.000 There were a couple of those women who were let off because they had taken off their hijab in public.
00:31:22.000 And there was huge protests in the streets of Tehran.
00:31:26.000 Biden remained silent, right?
00:31:29.000 I've been hearing the Iran threat my entire life, right?
00:31:31.000 So Iran saying, this is it.
00:31:33.000 Now we're going to be provoked to the point that we're going to respond.
00:31:36.000 Iran is easy to.
00:31:41.000 Remove from the problem if we just done things, right?
00:31:45.000 It's almost like America has deliberately allowed Iran to be a thorn in our side Whether it's for the military-industrial complex whether it's for God knows what but but it's Iran Should not be the problem that Iran is if America was half of what America claims to be in foreign policy What, an empire that can crush any opposition?
00:32:06.000 Iran is a little, tiny, piss-poor country that has hardly any natural resources.
00:32:12.000 But it's not tiny.
00:32:15.000 Compared to America and in terms of global economy.
00:32:19.000 But it's a large, mountainous region with a bunch of anti-aircraft missiles.
00:32:24.000 Geographically, it is not as small as the United Kingdom.
00:32:29.000 It should not be the threat that it has been.
00:32:31.000 It's the same with North Korea, right?
00:32:33.000 We have these little tiny countries, and tiny is economically, militarily.
00:32:38.000 We have these tiny countries that have been threatening America for 30, 40, 50 years.
00:32:42.000 Iran is 636,000 square miles and the UK is 80.
00:32:48.000 Like I said, it's not the size of the United Kingdom.
00:32:51.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:32:51.000 No, it's geographically bigger, but it's not... 88 million people.
00:32:55.000 Yeah.
00:32:55.000 Yeah.
00:32:56.000 It's massive.
00:32:57.000 And it's not massive.
00:32:59.000 And it's miserably poor.
00:33:03.000 I mean, it's just relative to us.
00:33:05.000 It doesn't mean that the U.S.
00:33:07.000 could just go in there with a boot and crush it in two seconds.
00:33:09.000 And I'm not saying that.
00:33:10.000 That's why I'm choosing my words very carefully.
00:33:11.000 I mean, if we could have done that, George Bush would have tried, right?
00:33:15.000 Would we have, though?
00:33:16.000 It seems like there were so many opportunities to have just supported the groundswell of populist movement in Iran that we just sat by and watched it happen.
00:33:26.000 Iraq and Afghanistan were the U.S.
00:33:28.000 attempt at dealing with Iran, and they couldn't do it.
00:33:30.000 They surrounded the country with just tons of military bases.
00:33:35.000 John Bolton saying in every administration since, we're gonna take Tehran, and then not being able to do it.
00:33:42.000 But taking it militarily is foolish and that's all they want is war.
00:33:46.000 I don't think you have to do it militarily.
00:33:48.000 So you think more like the confessions of an economic hitman style?
00:33:51.000 I think there are ways to deal with rogue countries and we've been doing this for 30, 40, 50 years and it's just endless.
00:33:58.000 It's endless.
00:33:59.000 We have to build an entire military because we have threats from Iran.
00:34:02.000 We have to build all this weaponry because we have to be in the Middle East because we have threats from Iran.
00:34:07.000 Why don't we just eradicate the threat?
00:34:09.000 Because we can't.
00:34:11.000 I think we choose not to. I disagree. I think Iran is aligned with Brazil, Russia, China,
00:34:16.000 India. That's in the last five, 10 years. Yeah, but but even that's new. Even still,
00:34:21.000 there's too many countries aligned with Iran. It's not an issue of the US could. I think the US would
00:34:27.000 was trying to deal with Iran.
00:34:29.000 Obviously, you can go back to 1979, but you look at Afghanistan and Iraq since the late 80s and the early 90s, the U.S.
00:34:36.000 has been trying to find a way to get in.
00:34:38.000 The problem is war with Iran means war with other countries, and now it's only gotten worse.
00:34:42.000 The U.S.
00:34:42.000 just doesn't have the ability.
00:34:44.000 Iran is known, or I suppose, I'm not an expert on Iran.
00:34:49.000 My understanding, having covered a little bit of the periphery, is that it's a mountainous country, we can't invade, and they have surface-to-air missiles that would cut down our air superiority.
00:35:01.000 countries that you missed that you mentioned though the BRICS with the exception of China,
00:35:06.000 of course, I mean, we've lost all of our diplomatic and economic relations with them
00:35:11.000 in the last decade, right? We used to have a good relationship with India. That's gone. We used to
00:35:16.000 have a good relationship with Brazil. That's gone. We used to have a fairly innocuous relationship
00:35:21.000 with Russia. That's gone, right? And so they've all aligned themselves to Iran.
00:35:29.000 But at our lackadaisical response, like American diplomacy has been a disaster for the last three
00:35:37.000 years. That's… It's been a disaster for longer than that, but the last three years in particular.
00:35:42.000 So you have now, yeah, a solidified relationship of the BRIC nations and Iran But why?
00:35:49.000 It's because we've been focusing on crap.
00:35:53.000 We've been focusing on gender ideology and we've been focusing on climate change.
00:35:57.000 We still have people in this administration who will tell you that climate change is the biggest threat.
00:36:01.000 I think the woke stuff Was actually like a Western NATO thing.
00:36:07.000 I think it was like the European countries clearly are all doing it.
00:36:10.000 And so U.S.
00:36:11.000 policy was in line with.
00:36:13.000 I think the W.E.F.
00:36:15.000 cult wants to turn NATO into a unified body under one governing authority.
00:36:23.000 So imagine, you know, the way Illinois operates.
00:36:26.000 They have a governor, they have state police, they have laws, but federal law supersedes it, and the feds can come and go as they please.
00:36:33.000 I think that's what the World Economic Forum envisions for the Western Globe.
00:36:36.000 That's kind of like the way the European Union works, right?
00:36:38.000 You're the sovereign nation of France, but if Brussels passes a new rule that says your glass bottles can only be six inches high, France is like, well, we must comply.
00:36:48.000 But that's because France is basically a state.
00:36:50.000 Exactly.
00:36:51.000 All the European nations are.
00:36:52.000 And they want NATO to be that.
00:36:54.000 They want there to be one governing authority comprising of all of the Western bloc, and then the United States would have NATO troops coming and enforcing laws.
00:37:06.000 Like, we have the FBI.
00:37:08.000 They're a federal branch.
00:37:09.000 They're not your state.
00:37:10.000 In New York, they're forbidden by law from working with Feds on immigration stuff.
00:37:14.000 So yeah.
00:37:14.000 Right, because of the sanctuary state thing.
00:37:16.000 That's working out great also.
00:37:18.000 The president and Congress may get won by Republicans, and then they'll say, we are no longer going to abide by the rules of NATO, and then, you know, NATO says, we can still deploy our troops, we still have military bases, we still have offices in your country, and you can refuse to work with us, but we will operate, you can't do anything about it.
00:37:35.000 That's the direction they want us to go.
00:37:37.000 Do you think people will comply?
00:37:38.000 I mean, I remember when Britain left the EU, there were so many people saying, but why would they do that?
00:37:44.000 Whereas to me, it seems obvious that you would not want to be under a central control of an organization that doesn't necessarily represent your views uniquely.
00:37:53.000 You want your government to represent you, not all of Europe.
00:37:56.000 But I think people get sucked in by the idea like, oh, it's cooperation.
00:38:01.000 We all have to have each other's backs.
00:38:02.000 They sell it in sort of this romantic way.
00:38:04.000 It gets confusing.
00:38:05.000 Well, I think that's even happening in America, you know, because we're not a federalist nation anymore.
00:38:11.000 We just ignore the Tenth Amendment.
00:38:13.000 And so, yeah, you have this all-powerful D.C., and if you are a cattle rancher in Montana and you're like, why the hell does D.C.
00:38:18.000 get to it?
00:38:19.000 It's because we're D.C.
00:38:20.000 and we're in charge.
00:38:21.000 And the federal government's looking out for you.
00:38:22.000 The federal government is more powerful and in charge.
00:38:24.000 My friends, none of this matters, because before anything advances in terms of the expansion of NATO, we'll get World War III.
00:38:31.000 From the Hill, Blinken, quote, Ukraine will become a member of NATO.
00:38:35.000 And there you have it.
00:38:36.000 He was very clear in this.
00:38:37.000 He may as well have just said, Russia, please declare war now because we have effectively said it's on.
00:38:44.000 We have this from El Pais.
00:38:47.000 NATO personnel already in Ukraine for arms control intelligence operations and military training.
00:38:52.000 So this is big news.
00:38:55.000 And they play this semantic game because I think too many Americans are dumb.
00:39:01.000 And that's why they're in a cult to vote Democrat.
00:39:03.000 The moment a country places one military personnel in an official capacity in another country, that's it.
00:39:13.000 You have entered the war.
00:39:15.000 This idea that NATO personnel are operating in Ukraine, but don't worry, they're not fighting.
00:39:20.000 They're just hanging out.
00:39:21.000 Because what they'll get is the corporate press in America will say, no, there's no soldiers.
00:39:28.000 There's no combat troops in Ukraine.
00:39:30.000 That's not true.
00:39:31.000 Snopes.
00:39:32.000 Are there actual combat troops from NATO fighting in Ukraine?
00:39:36.000 False.
00:39:36.000 And then all at the bottom, while there are military personnel providing weapons, training, intelligence, telling the people, giving command and operations, they're not actually fighting themselves.
00:39:47.000 Do you think Russia cares?
00:39:49.000 No, Russia doesn't care.
00:39:50.000 And Russia has said that.
00:39:51.000 I keep wondering, like, at what point is Russia going to realize that we're at war with Russia?
00:39:55.000 Do you know what I mean?
00:39:56.000 Do they know that already?
00:39:57.000 Are they just waiting for that?
00:39:58.000 Because our guys are, we've provided all of these missiles.
00:40:02.000 We've provided all of this stuff that Biden said that we absolutely weren't going to provide.
00:40:05.000 He promised that we wouldn't be sending any tanks, and then he sent tanks.
00:40:09.000 He promised that we wouldn't be sending F-16s.
00:40:10.000 Then we said, like, I just get it from Poland, you know, it's totally fine.
00:40:15.000 We promised that we wouldn't be sending long-range missiles and now that's on the table.
00:40:19.000 I was at this fascinating debate last week in New York with John Mearsheimer and Daniel Davis and some other people and Heather Conley and former ambassador, whose name I forget, but they were talking about should Congress continue to fund the war in Ukraine.
00:40:38.000 And on the one hand, you had Mearsheimer and Davis who were opposed to it saying, there's no way that Ukraine can win this war.
00:40:46.000 What we need to do is make Ukraine a neutral territory and, you know, negotiate a way out of this conflict now so that eventually we're not negotiating terms of surrender, right?
00:40:58.000 Which I thought was sort of interesting.
00:40:59.000 And then you had, on the other side, you had them saying, actually, we should continue this war because if Ukrainians want to fight and die for their freedom, then we should keep funding it.
00:41:09.000 We're not actually sending our guys to fight, and it's keeping Russia at bay.
00:41:14.000 And it's providing all of this, you know, funding to enhance the military-industrial complex in the United States.
00:41:20.000 And I was like, it all is bad.
00:41:22.000 Like, every conceivable avenue is terrible.
00:41:24.000 I got another option for you there.
00:41:26.000 It's good luck, Ukraine.
00:41:27.000 I wish you the best.
00:41:28.000 Well, there's that too.
00:41:29.000 Well, that was the Mearsheimer perspective, was like, let's not fund this anymore.
00:41:29.000 Yeah.
00:41:33.000 Well, I'm saying like, that means if they lose, they lose.
00:41:35.000 I don't care.
00:41:36.000 I'm not going to argue a neutral ground, or if Ukraine surrenders, good, no more war.
00:41:41.000 Right.
00:41:41.000 Well, the idea was that neutral would protect NATO.
00:41:44.000 That was sort of the idea.
00:41:45.000 I don't like, I think Putin's a bad dude for a lot of reasons.
00:41:48.000 I think he's done bad in Ukraine, obviously.
00:41:51.000 I think he's got his interests and his propaganda, and I don't care about Ukraine.
00:41:55.000 I always love how the conservatives, when it comes to war, they suddenly become Keynesians because they say, like, no, I'm a free market capitalist, but if we can spend a lot of money on the military for war purposes, that's good for the economy.
00:42:09.000 And it's like, well, is Ukraine buying?
00:42:12.000 The taxpayers are paying for it.
00:42:12.000 No, no, no.
00:42:13.000 We're paying for it.
00:42:15.000 So suddenly we're all Keynesians now.
00:42:17.000 It's like we might as well just... Weren't we selling weapons in World War I and II to Europe?
00:42:22.000 Of course, of course.
00:42:23.000 I mean, that helped us immensely.
00:42:25.000 Did you see the Biden administration will sell fighter jets to Israel?
00:42:31.000 Let me clarify this for everybody.
00:42:34.000 The Biden administration will give Israel money.
00:42:36.000 Israel will then hand the money back to us in exchange for our fighter jets.
00:42:40.000 So basically, they found a circuitous method of handing over our fighter jets to Israel.
00:42:45.000 It seems crazy to me.
00:42:46.000 I mean, to your point of does Russia know that we're at war with them, I 100% think Russia does, purely by the way that they treat the wrongfully detained Americans, right?
00:42:55.000 Like Gershkovich.
00:42:56.000 Gershkovich, Paul Whelan, Mark Fogle, they're all hanging out and Putin's never going to give them up.
00:43:02.000 He has no reason to do America any favors right now, especially as we play coy about this whole, I mean not coy anymore, thanks Blinken, about if Ukraine is going to be a part of NATO.
00:43:11.000 That was the one phone call that he made to Biden before when he still had troops on the border.
00:43:16.000 He said, I don't want Ukraine in NATO.
00:43:18.000 And that ballet dancer.
00:43:19.000 Don't we have a ballet dancer?
00:43:20.000 We have.
00:43:21.000 There's a ballet dancer that she was born in Russia, but she's an American citizen.
00:43:25.000 And then there is a reporter who works for Radio Free Europe.
00:43:30.000 There was Paul Whelan.
00:43:32.000 And then there's also there's two dual Russian-American citizen women that are incarcerated.
00:43:38.000 But then it's Griffiths from The Wall Street Journal.
00:43:41.000 It's Paul Whelan, the former Marine.
00:43:42.000 And it's Mark Fogle, who was detained on marijuana charges.
00:43:48.000 He's been doing that for like 10 years.
00:43:49.000 And then he got arrested.
00:43:51.000 He had brought medical marijuana into the country.
00:43:53.000 But the thing is, it's really easy to parallel that with Brittany Griner, right?
00:43:57.000 And she was out in less than a year for sure.
00:44:00.000 Whereas the other two, the other three men... Negotiated an arms dealer for her release.
00:44:04.000 For sure!
00:44:05.000 I mean, this is where we are.
00:44:06.000 She was a WNBA player.
00:44:08.000 Right.
00:44:08.000 Yeah, fair point.
00:44:09.000 She's very important to us all.
00:44:11.000 And apparently these other people are not.
00:44:12.000 At least they're not important to the Biden administration.
00:44:15.000 And that's how I think Russia knows they're at war and they have a lot of, they know they have a lot of ways to fight the U.S.
00:44:21.000 and fight the Western countries that are trying to manipulate them right now.
00:44:25.000 Meanwhile, Russia has not sold a drop less of oil, a cubic inch less of natural gas.
00:44:33.000 All of these bans that they have, we are boycotting Russian fossil fuels.
00:44:37.000 Russia's like, great, we'll just send it directly, we'll sell it directly to India or Iran.
00:44:42.000 We have customers.
00:44:43.000 No matter what other countries South Korea is buying it and then we'll just sell it to you
00:44:47.000 So the French are like we will not buy where am I making so much fun of the French today?
00:44:50.000 We will not buy a Russian natural gas But we'll buy it from India who bought her from Russia
00:44:54.000 With a small with a small market is as an American with a small markup and the ruble is stronger than it was then two
00:45:02.000 years ago the Putin has more money than he did two years ago
00:45:06.000 So with all the money coming in, of course he's going to continue the war because we're funding it by also our terrible energy policies and it always comes back to energy.
00:45:14.000 All of these sanctions did nothing because I watched this video out of Russia and their McDonald's is just they changed the name and it's identical McDonald's.
00:45:23.000 They have all the luxury brands that have that were forced to pull out and now what happens is Russian companies seized the... This is the stupidest thing ever.
00:45:32.000 These companies operated in Russia, which meant that the money they made, they could actually send back internationally.
00:45:37.000 With the sanctions, McDonald's was like, okay, I guess we're out, and then Russian individuals seized control of the entire infrastructure, and now the money stays in Russia.
00:45:46.000 Luxury brands still exist in Russia.
00:45:49.000 How do they get them?
00:45:49.000 They buy them from a neighboring country.
00:45:51.000 They could buy them from China.
00:45:52.000 Yeah.
00:45:53.000 It's like, okay, China's under sanctions for Gucci.
00:45:55.000 They buy it from there and then they mark it up and sell it in Russia.
00:45:57.000 And they just change the name.
00:45:57.000 They change the G to something.
00:45:59.000 Cause all that stuff is made in China anyways.
00:46:01.000 Some of them still are.
00:46:02.000 They just keep the same name.
00:46:03.000 Yeah.
00:46:03.000 So like the Apple store, for instance, change it name to like, now they have like a different, but it's still all Apple products.
00:46:10.000 All they do is order them from a neighboring country.
00:46:12.000 They added a P before Hermes and now it's Firmase.
00:46:15.000 People are like, oh, look, I have a Firmase.
00:46:18.000 Pronouncing that P now.
00:46:19.000 Exactly.
00:46:20.000 No, it's I mean, I don't understand how the Biden administration can't even posture as if Russia doesn't know what's going on and like they have any kind of upper hand.
00:46:28.000 And again, And in all of these examples, American people are paying for it.
00:46:33.000 I'm assuming energy didn't get any cheaper because of this great backdoor deal.
00:46:37.000 We all see that.
00:46:38.000 I thank the Lord that I do live on a farm and off-grid, and sometimes I can turn things off.
00:46:45.000 Because when you look at foreign policy, you look at border policy, you look at economic policy,
00:46:48.000 monetary policy, debt, you start adding the state of, if you could go down a rabbit hole
00:46:55.000 of the state of education of our children and how poorly educated they are,
00:46:59.000 when you start compiling all these things together, you could go insane.
00:47:03.000 I mean, if you realize, like, if anyone could point to one thing
00:47:07.000 that is quote-unquote working, just one thing that you're like,
00:47:11.000 well, at least we got- Biden drained the strategic petroleum reserves
00:47:15.000 and will not refill them.
00:47:17.000 Even though he promised.
00:47:17.000 Because if he does, it will drive the prices back up It's too expensive.
00:47:21.000 It's a Biden promise.
00:47:22.000 It doesn't mean anything.
00:47:23.000 It doesn't.
00:47:23.000 He's made so many promises, and he doesn't keep any of them.
00:47:26.000 Trump was hell-bent on keeping his promises, even when he couldn't do it.
00:47:29.000 Yeah.
00:47:29.000 Like, he was like, we're getting a wall!
00:47:30.000 Like, I have to do it.
00:47:32.000 And he built a bunch of it.
00:47:33.000 That's right.
00:47:34.000 And they tried stopping him.
00:47:36.000 Imagine if he succeeded in building his big brick wall 30 feet tall from sea to shining sea.
00:47:40.000 I'd love it.
00:47:40.000 No border crisis.
00:47:41.000 That'd be great.
00:47:42.000 Yeah, it'd be a wonderful thing.
00:47:43.000 It'd be a lot easier to get snipers up there like they have in Israel.
00:47:47.000 I do love how Trump was like, I want a big concrete wall.
00:47:50.000 And they were like, that's actually bad because then we can't see on the other side.
00:47:53.000 And he's like, oh.
00:47:53.000 And they were like, okay, well, what if we did like fencing on the bottom and then concrete on top?
00:47:57.000 And they were like, you still can't see on the other side.
00:48:00.000 He wanted like the Great Wall of China, right?
00:48:02.000 He wanted something big.
00:48:03.000 That would be easy.
00:48:04.000 Then it could be a tourist attraction.
00:48:05.000 We'd love it!
00:48:06.000 That's a good idea.
00:48:07.000 They built sections.
00:48:08.000 To try out.
00:48:09.000 And the issue with the solid walls is that it allows the gangs to operate in darkness on the other side.
00:48:16.000 So they were like, bollard fencing makes the most sense.
00:48:19.000 You put the shields up on top and razor wire, and then you can see them as they're trying to break through to the other side.
00:48:26.000 And I love how the left is like, walls don't work.
00:48:28.000 And I'm like, are you kidding?
00:48:29.000 A three meter chain link fence in Europe shut down, I think it was, It might have been into Greece, or it might have been Hungary.
00:48:38.000 It was a chain-link fence nine feet high, and immigration dropped to like one percent of its previous levels, and you know why?
00:48:44.000 Because families don't climb walls.
00:48:47.000 The men can, but the people who are coming had grandmothers, they had babies, and they'd come to a chain-link fence and be like, let's just keep going.
00:48:55.000 And they wouldn't come in.
00:48:56.000 Chain-link fence worked.
00:48:57.000 Well, also, I mean, if walls didn't work, why did cities in Europe wall their cities for centuries?
00:49:04.000 Why do you live in a house if walls don't work?
00:49:07.000 Why do you live in a house if they just let everybody in?
00:49:09.000 They just put up a bunch of walls around the capital of the State of the Union, you know?
00:49:12.000 They always put up those walls overnight.
00:49:14.000 Those walls apparently just don't work.
00:49:16.000 That's why they put them up.
00:49:17.000 That's why they do it.
00:49:18.000 Walls of Jericho, those worked really well.
00:49:20.000 It needed a miracle to take those down.
00:49:22.000 Yeah, I think maybe we should ask the Democrats.
00:49:25.000 They should take down the walls around Gaza.
00:49:28.000 And just, you know, Israel can just do that because walls don't work, right?
00:49:31.000 I mean, Egypt should do that too, probably.
00:49:33.000 Egypt should totally get rid of those walls.
00:49:36.000 No more walls anywhere.
00:49:36.000 They just don't work.
00:49:37.000 No more walls on houses.
00:49:39.000 No more walls in any commercial building.
00:49:41.000 No walls between countries.
00:49:43.000 Just all gone.
00:49:44.000 Architects everywhere are suddenly are scrambling to redo their entire profession.
00:49:48.000 You know what I hate that architects did?
00:49:51.000 You know how they always, this is off topic, but you know how they always, uh, in modern hotels, you can see into the bathroom and they're like, like, what the hell?
00:50:00.000 I don't need this.
00:50:02.000 I ended up in one of these rooms with my son one time and I was like, there's, we can't do this.
00:50:06.000 I'm not, this is just not how, I had to call down.
00:50:08.000 I was like, you got to change this room.
00:50:10.000 What was like the glass bathroom?
00:50:11.000 It was a glass bathroom, and so if you're sitting in the bedroom area, you're looking into the shower.
00:50:16.000 Was it, like, fogged?
00:50:17.000 It was not fogged.
00:50:18.000 It was not fogged.
00:50:18.000 What?
00:50:19.000 I went to one hotel.
00:50:20.000 It was just clear glass.
00:50:21.000 They had a window into the shower from the bedroom.
00:50:23.000 I've seen that before.
00:50:24.000 Yeah, that's what this was, but it was the full floor.
00:50:26.000 This one just had, like, a small window, and I was like...
00:50:29.000 I get it, if it's a couple that's going on vacation.
00:50:32.000 And they're into that?
00:50:33.000 Sometimes you're sharing a room with your sister, though, right?
00:50:36.000 You don't really want the whole... For your mom?
00:50:39.000 When you call the hotel, my girl is gonna be like, look, I'm traveling with someone I'm related to.
00:50:42.000 Please.
00:50:43.000 Full walls.
00:50:44.000 Or even with your spouse, there are just certain things I don't want an audience for.
00:50:47.000 For real.
00:50:48.000 That's the thing.
00:50:50.000 Like, it's okay.
00:50:51.000 Keep a little mystery about yourself.
00:50:53.000 Save the relationship.
00:50:54.000 Walls.
00:50:54.000 Walls are good.
00:50:55.000 Yes, walls are good!
00:50:57.000 Thank you so much, that's so true!
00:50:59.000 Walls are key.
00:51:00.000 That's why we've been building them for so long.
00:51:03.000 The whole society thinks we're into it.
00:51:04.000 I'm a fan of walls.
00:51:05.000 I like them.
00:51:06.000 Look, I'm pro-wall.
00:51:07.000 I'm willing to say it.
00:51:09.000 No, I think this is one of the most interesting parts of all of, well, do you remember, so there were like gaps in the wall at various points, and when Doug Ducey was governor of Arizona, he was like stacking shipping containers.
00:51:20.000 That's right, and Biden was like, you gotta take this down.
00:51:22.000 Biden was like, you have to stop because animals cannot migrate, and also this is federal land, it'll also take it down and we don't like it.
00:51:29.000 And also, we just really want to allow the entire world to come in with absolutely no consequences.
00:51:33.000 Biden is pro-no-bathrooms, you know what I'm saying?
00:51:37.000 I want to jump to the story for all those... Just read Ashley Biden's diary.
00:51:40.000 I want to jump to the story for all the Biden fans out there.
00:51:43.000 Ladies and gentlemen, we got her!
00:51:45.000 We got her.
00:51:46.000 We got her.
00:51:47.000 It's exciting.
00:51:47.000 The 71-year-old praying grandmother is going down!
00:51:50.000 Lock her up!
00:51:52.000 Thank the Lord for Joe Biden's DOJ and Merrick Garland for tracking down this dangerous criminal.
00:51:58.000 Now, I know there's a bunch of criminal aliens that are, you know, that are rapists and murderers, and, you know, people like Laker Riley get murdered and stuff, but this praying grandma, hmm, I don't know, what's she praying about?
00:52:09.000 What was she asking for, huh?
00:52:11.000 I just want to know the bill that it took to bring her in.
00:52:14.000 How many tax dollars did they spend on this one investigation?
00:52:17.000 No, I figured it out.
00:52:19.000 She said she was praying for her country.
00:52:20.000 You know what that means?
00:52:21.000 She was praying that Biden would lose.
00:52:24.000 And that means Biden has to arrest her because those prayers are dangerous.
00:52:27.000 She was going to manifest a Trump 2024 victory.
00:52:27.000 It's treason.
00:52:30.000 pipe bomb at the RNC. Do they know? Has the FBI solved that one for us yet?
00:52:35.000 That's not important! You are losing perspective on how we keep this country safe!
00:52:40.000 You know what's crazy? Let me read the story here from the Post.
00:52:43.000 It's from the Post Monument. Oh, right.
00:52:45.000 Colorado praying grandma who walked in Capitol on J6 found guilty by DCG.
00:52:52.000 jury.
00:52:53.000 On Thursday afternoon, a Colorado grandmother who briefly entered the Capitol building on January 6th after preying on the grounds of the group for over an hour was found guilty of four misdemeanor charges.
00:53:03.000 Multiple sources close to the case confirmed to the Post Millennial that she had been found guilty this afternoon.
00:53:08.000 She could be sentenced to a year in prison and fines exceeding $200,000.
00:53:10.000 This little old lady, dude, I've heard stories.
00:53:16.000 I've told this story before.
00:53:17.000 When I was growing up, an old man ran over a teenage girl and smashed her skull.
00:53:21.000 And the penalty was, you lose your license.
00:53:24.000 And this lady walked in the building for a few minutes.
00:53:26.000 She's a threat to no one.
00:53:28.000 Misdemeanors now send you to jail?
00:53:30.000 That's the crazy thing.
00:53:31.000 Well, yeah.
00:53:31.000 Misdemeanors always could.
00:53:33.000 Misdemeanors are usually, I can't speak for other states.
00:53:35.000 In Illinois, a misdemeanor is anything less than a year.
00:53:37.000 And prison and felonies are anything a year or more.
00:53:40.000 So yes, you commit a misdemeanor, you can get six months or something.
00:53:44.000 But what is the purpose of imprisonment?
00:53:46.000 Is this lady a threat to anyone?
00:53:48.000 Is she going to stage a revolution?
00:53:50.000 Will she be a soldier in Trump's army?
00:53:52.000 The answer to this question, no.
00:53:54.000 She's gonna go home, sit in her little rocking chair, and she's going to pray.
00:53:57.000 Well, she has a bed and breakfast in Colorado Springs.
00:53:59.000 And what was interesting when I was reading her account and reading the accounts of when she was, uh, when the FBI showed up, the FBI showed up, she was literally baking a cake for her son's birthday and asked them to come back another day.
00:54:12.000 And they did, because that's how threatening she is.
00:54:16.000 That's how threatening this little old lady is.
00:54:18.000 They saw her holding that knife or cutting the cake.
00:54:21.000 And she was like, could you come back?
00:54:23.000 Please, please.
00:54:25.000 She's going to pray at us.
00:54:26.000 Let's get out of here.
00:54:27.000 The feds ran off terrified.
00:54:29.000 It'd be embarrassing to be the FBI agent who brought her down.
00:54:32.000 It'd be embarrassing to be the juror who was like, you know what?
00:54:35.000 I think she better go to jail.
00:54:36.000 Well, this was this was like a 26 hour deliberation because it looks like there was one juror at least who was just like, no, we can't we can't do it.
00:54:43.000 And eventually that juror was swayed.
00:54:45.000 It took like they started deliberations on Monday and they finished yesterday.
00:54:49.000 That juror wasn't swayed.
00:54:51.000 They weren't swayed.
00:54:52.000 They were blackmailed.
00:54:53.000 Yeah, they were browbeaten by 11 other Washingtonians.
00:54:56.000 We wanna go home!
00:54:57.000 Yeah.
00:54:59.000 Yeah, you wouldn't get me to be able to change that.
00:55:00.000 I'm just a little too ups in it.
00:55:03.000 I would put my feet up on the table, lean back and be like, nope.
00:55:06.000 You wanna go home, you change your vote.
00:55:07.000 I was in D.C.
00:55:08.000 for almost 20 years, and I got jury duty every year, and I was kicked out within four seconds of G.C.
00:55:14.000 jury duty.
00:55:15.000 They never wanted me to serve on a jury, but these are the people exactly who they want.
00:55:19.000 I've tried, like, I've been called into jury duty a lot in New York City, where I used to live, and I never get picked either.
00:55:24.000 Never.
00:55:24.000 And I'm always like, pick me!
00:55:26.000 And they're like, no.
00:55:26.000 They're like, too eager, get out of here.
00:55:28.000 Exactly.
00:55:28.000 Believe in the criminal justice system.
00:55:30.000 It's because everybody wants stupid people.
00:55:32.000 Yeah, they just want idiots.
00:55:34.000 And I'd be like, my parents were attorneys.
00:55:37.000 They're like, not malleable enough.
00:55:38.000 Please see yourself out.
00:55:39.000 Would they give you reasons or just say, Jerry, you're dismissed or something?
00:55:41.000 No, they'd just be like, you're dismissed.
00:55:43.000 They'd talk to me for a minute.
00:55:44.000 You're dismissed.
00:55:45.000 Over and over again.
00:55:47.000 It would just be stuff about the case, like if you ever had experience with domestic violence or whatever else.
00:55:51.000 Do you have a family member who is in law enforcement?
00:55:54.000 And I do, so that always got me kicked off.
00:55:57.000 You just yell when they say, have you ever had an encounter with the police related to drugs or anything?
00:56:03.000 Just be like, no, but he's guilty!
00:56:05.000 He's guilty and I know it!
00:56:06.000 Can I go home now?
00:56:08.000 I never want to go home.
00:56:09.000 I would love to serve on a jury.
00:56:10.000 I think it would be so fascinating.
00:56:13.000 I think they intentionally don't want people who are interested in the process.
00:56:15.000 Yeah.
00:56:16.000 You have to be frustrated and want to go.
00:56:18.000 Because it's the same.
00:56:20.000 I would love to be on a jury, but I definitely am able to acknowledge that any of the January 6th cases, it would be very difficult to convince me that the charges that they...
00:56:29.000 The charges that they were definitely being tried for are accurate to the situation.
00:56:33.000 That's what was so interesting about this, because I was reading the statement of facts that, like, the FBI provided, and it has all this information about what she did, including that LaFrance stated that she spent approximately 10 minutes inside the Capitol and described her path as roaming from the East Center entrance to the rotunda and back, exiting through the same door that she entered.
00:56:52.000 She walked in a circle.
00:56:53.000 Yeah, she gave the FBI agents photos, including a photo of her talking to a Capitol Police officer who sort of leans forward to try and hear her over the crowd, you know, because she's so dangerous that he's like leaning forward to her.
00:57:05.000 And it said, based on the foregoing, there is probable cause to believe that LaVrenne's violated, you know, knowingly enter or remain in any restricted building or grounds.
00:57:13.000 Also probable cause to believe that she Willfully and knowingly uttered loud, threatening or abusive language or engaged in disorderly conduct.
00:57:21.000 And she didn't do any of those things.
00:57:23.000 She prayed.
00:57:25.000 She went in for 10 minutes.
00:57:27.000 She wandered around.
00:57:28.000 She talked to a cop and she left.
00:57:29.000 She talked to a cop so quietly, he had to lean in.
00:57:31.000 He had to lean in.
00:57:32.000 If you look at the picture, he's just like leaning in.
00:57:35.000 The best part is, like, if you walked in, walked up to a cop and said, are we allowed to be here?
00:57:39.000 I'm like, oh, I'm so sorry.
00:57:39.000 And he went, no.
00:57:40.000 I'm leaving.
00:57:41.000 They would have left.
00:57:42.000 They'd still charge you.
00:57:43.000 Yeah.
00:57:44.000 They charge people who are on the ground.
00:57:45.000 They charge people who went to the cops and said, hey, do you need any help?
00:57:50.000 Can I help you with something?
00:57:51.000 And the cops said, we gotta get these people out of here.
00:57:52.000 And they went, let's get these people out of here.
00:57:54.000 We'll help.
00:57:54.000 They charged those guys.
00:57:55.000 Yeah.
00:57:56.000 And this is going to be a huge problem for the election because the thousands of FBI agents who are involved in this know that if Trump were to win and all the J6 people get blanket pardon, which I do think they would, I do think he would change the FBI to say, let's start investigating the folks who led this charge.
00:58:16.000 And if you're a 48-year-old guy in the FBI, and you've got 25 years under your belt, and you're heading up this task force, you're not going to go down with President Trump or his new FBI head, who I pray is Rand Paul.
00:58:27.000 I've tweeted it many times.
00:58:28.000 I would love to have Rand Paul be the— He's not going to leave the Senate.
00:58:31.000 But this is why— How great would it be if he— The names of the FBI agents are all redacted.
00:58:35.000 Exactly.
00:58:36.000 And that's why these guys know— And this is why Trump can't win.
00:58:39.000 This is why they have to stop him from this.
00:58:40.000 This is why there have been people like Cernovich saying way too many people.
00:58:43.000 They cannot let Trump win under no circumstance because there are going to be people in the federal government with weapons who are sitting there thinking, well, if Trump wins, I go to prison for the rest of my life or worse.
00:58:55.000 So, what does that mean?
00:58:57.000 Yeah, so that's why this next couple of months are going to be absolutely insane.
00:59:02.000 We were joking how today was kind of like, wow, it's actually kind of a normal news day.
00:59:05.000 I think that's coming to an end because of that.
00:59:07.000 Well, the eclipse is on Monday, and that's it.
00:59:11.000 That's when, you know, the end begins.
00:59:13.000 I hope so.
00:59:14.000 I'm tired.
00:59:16.000 I'm ready.
00:59:17.000 If it's a meteor, just take me.
00:59:19.000 Just take me.
00:59:20.000 I've been dealing with these baby lambs and sheep.
00:59:23.000 You know, I'm just so exhausted.
00:59:25.000 Yeah, if the media doesn't take me, the DOJ will.
00:59:28.000 I do think it's funny that everyone cares so much about this eclipse.
00:59:31.000 It's just silly.
00:59:32.000 Because we had an eclipse recently.
00:59:34.000 We've had eclipses.
00:59:35.000 I saw an eclipse a couple years ago, whenever it was.
00:59:37.000 It was an eclipse in October.
00:59:39.000 I built a big cardboard box thing so we could pinhole look through it and watch the eclipse inside the box.
00:59:44.000 They're just trying to normalize eclipses.
00:59:46.000 So when they block out the sun, so when Bill Gates' block out the sun machine.
00:59:49.000 When he blocks out the sun, you'll be like, ah, this happens all the time.
00:59:52.000 The electric grid finally fails completely and we're all in darkness.
00:59:55.000 Just pretend it's an eclipse!
00:59:57.000 But then we wouldn't be able to talk about it anyway because social media would be down.
01:00:00.000 I will say this.
01:00:01.000 The last total eclipse was August 2017 and the last eclipse before that was 1979.
01:00:06.000 Why are they getting closer together?
01:00:09.000 I don't understand.
01:00:09.000 What's happening?
01:00:11.000 Total solar eclipse.
01:00:12.000 I guess because October was an annular eclipse and then this is a total eclipse.
01:00:18.000 Cool.
01:00:19.000 August 2017, that's when I built my little box.
01:00:21.000 I watched it at the beach.
01:00:22.000 That's when Trump was on the balcony, right?
01:00:24.000 And they were like, Mr. President, you should have glasses.
01:00:26.000 And he's like, I'm good.
01:00:26.000 He was like, I'm just gonna look at it myself.
01:00:28.000 Yeah, I'm good.
01:00:29.000 Which is great.
01:00:31.000 And is he blind?
01:00:31.000 They were like, he's gonna go blind.
01:00:33.000 Is he blind?
01:00:34.000 It's totally fine to look at an eclipse the way Trump did.
01:00:36.000 I don't recommend it, but Trump looked up and then looked down.
01:00:39.000 Yeah, that's not the issue.
01:00:40.000 The issue is that people stare at it for a long period of time because they don't understand that it's frying their eyes.
01:00:48.000 You can look at the sun, you know.
01:00:50.000 It's just you don't stare at it.
01:00:51.000 You look up and go, oh, it's bright.
01:00:52.000 So Trump looks up and goes, oh, yeah, well, look at that.
01:00:54.000 And everyone's like, ha ha, he's an idiot.
01:00:55.000 He looked at the eclipse.
01:00:56.000 These people are morons.
01:00:56.000 I was shocked.
01:00:57.000 Look, these clips couldn't take Trump down.
01:01:00.000 I think that's great.
01:01:01.000 What good marketing, right?
01:01:03.000 Then he takes a bite out of his Big Mac.
01:01:03.000 He does that.
01:01:06.000 But the people in the eclipse zone though, this one coming, which is kind of like Houston, all across Arkansas, all the way up to Buffalo, New York, they're going insane with school closures and businesses are getting shut down.
01:01:21.000 Doesn't it last all of about like 38 seconds or a minute and a half, right?
01:01:26.000 And all these states are like, it's a state of emergency!
01:01:29.000 State of emergency is too far.
01:01:32.000 Let things be fun, you know?
01:01:34.000 Like, Catholic kids learn about eclipse day at school and not go, like, life is so hard.
01:01:39.000 Just let us celebrate the eclipse.
01:01:41.000 Don't panic.
01:01:42.000 Let your children learn about science.
01:01:44.000 I don't know.
01:01:45.000 There's a level where, like, yes, it's not that big a deal.
01:01:47.000 On the other hand, for some kids, they're gonna be like, oh yeah, I remember this day.
01:01:50.000 It's a big deal.
01:01:51.000 It's a big deal.
01:01:52.000 I don't want to be too negative about it.
01:01:54.000 But maybe don't let them stare into the sun.
01:01:55.000 Don't stare into the sun.
01:01:56.000 Okay, so I'm reading about the difference between annular and total.
01:01:59.000 In October, we had an annular eclipse, and that's when the moon is further away from the earth.
01:02:04.000 So you don't actually get darkness, you get a negative shadow, they call it.
01:02:08.000 So things get dim, and you see the ring of the sun.
01:02:11.000 With a total eclipse, that's when it's total darkness.
01:02:15.000 So I guess it'll get real dark, that'll be fun.
01:02:17.000 And it's dark for three minutes, but it's gonna be, it's a two-hour period, it's a two-hour process.
01:02:22.000 So where we are, we have up to upwards of 90%.
01:02:26.000 Uh, so if you're in, like, Ohio, that's where it's totality.
01:02:29.000 But where we are, it's gonna be dark and there's gonna be a thin sliver that you'll be able to see.
01:02:33.000 And what happens during a total eclipse of the heart?
01:02:35.000 Is that similar?
01:02:37.000 I have no idea what that means.
01:02:38.000 It is so stuck in my head and has been since the beginning of this conversation.
01:02:43.000 We were all thinking about it, except for maybe Tim.
01:02:46.000 I was not thinking about it.
01:02:47.000 I know.
01:02:49.000 Look, I'm not big on the pop culture references.
01:02:51.000 So we can see it from where we are.
01:02:53.000 When is this happening?
01:02:54.000 Wednesday?
01:02:54.000 No, Monday.
01:02:55.000 Monday.
01:02:56.000 What time?
01:02:56.000 2.03pm until... Eastern?
01:02:57.000 Yes.
01:03:01.000 Well, we're in Eastern time, so... I guess we should go outside and take a look.
01:03:04.000 I know, but like, post-millennial, I have people from Vancouver to... They can't see it at all.
01:03:08.000 I know, I'm just used to like, I just keep saying it.
01:03:10.000 Maybe she's bragging about her international stuff.
01:03:12.000 No, I'm just used to saying it.
01:03:13.000 Call the Vancouver people and describe it to them on the phone.
01:03:15.000 We don't have an office.
01:03:16.000 You will not see a total solar eclipse.
01:03:18.000 You will see a crescent.
01:03:20.000 My poor sheep are all gonna start heading towards the barn.
01:03:22.000 Here's the cool thing, though.
01:03:23.000 If you look under a tree, if the leaves have grown in, you'll see little crescents everywhere.
01:03:28.000 Oh, that's cute.
01:03:28.000 Yeah, because the focal point between the leaves will make little, they look like little crescent moons, you know?
01:03:34.000 Yeah, that's fun.
01:03:36.000 I saw something about a teacher saying she's going to put a disco ball out and have it reflect onto like poster boards so kids can like see the little crescent shape or whatever it is.
01:03:45.000 I love science!
01:03:46.000 It's great!
01:03:47.000 The cool thing is that when it gets dark, all the bugs come out, because they think it's nighttime, and the animals start freaking out.
01:03:56.000 So your lambs are going to be confused.
01:03:57.000 Well, when it gets to be dark, they all start walking towards the barn, because they like to sleep in the barn, because they're all giving birth.
01:04:05.000 They don't like wind very much.
01:04:06.000 I don't want to sleep in the wind either.
01:04:06.000 Who does?
01:04:08.000 They've got a lot of hair, they don't want to mess up.
01:04:11.000 So they will, and then as soon as the light comes back a minute later, they'll be like, oh, that was a mistake, and they'll turn around.
01:04:17.000 I know I'm gonna miss it.
01:04:18.000 But it's two hours.
01:04:19.000 It takes two hours?
01:04:21.000 Yes.
01:04:21.000 Oh, I thought it was like- At 2.03 is when the moon will start covering the sun.
01:04:26.000 And so you will get different degrees of darkness over a two-hour period.
01:04:26.000 Okay.
01:04:30.000 Oh, that's a long time.
01:04:31.000 Yeah, so at 3.20 or whatever is when you'll get total darkness, and then it'll be very, very dark.
01:04:37.000 I should just start drinking.
01:04:38.000 And then it'll slowly getting brighter again.
01:04:39.000 I may just have a party on my phone.
01:04:40.000 You have three minutes of total darkness, but you have An hour until it hits that point.
01:04:45.000 So it's going to be slowly dimming over an hour until it's totally dark.
01:04:48.000 So in three minutes of total darkness, if you're in the city, are you allowed to loot and steal things in those three minutes?
01:04:54.000 In a Democrat city, you're always allowed to, whether it eclipses or not.
01:04:58.000 But you can do it really fast.
01:05:00.000 Three minutes of hell.
01:05:01.000 I don't know, they're firing rockets at it.
01:05:01.000 It's superpowers.
01:05:04.000 CERN's firing up the Large Hadron Collider.
01:05:06.000 That's right.
01:05:07.000 CERN is crazy.
01:05:08.000 Well, I love they're called APEP rockets.
01:05:10.000 APEP, the god of Egypt, who is a serpent that chases the sun.
01:05:12.000 So, you know, I think that's just silly.
01:05:14.000 That is silly.
01:05:15.000 But they did it on purpose.
01:05:16.000 Well, we love a good historical reference.
01:05:18.000 That's great.
01:05:19.000 Creativity, it abounds.
01:05:21.000 Well, let's talk about this story.
01:05:24.000 The DOJ wants to arrest the lady who found Ashley Biden's diary.
01:05:29.000 MAGA raises questions as Ashley Biden diary thief faces prison.
01:05:33.000 All right.
01:05:35.000 On Tuesday, prosecutors in New York sent a letter to a judge requesting that Amy Harris, the individual accused of stealing the diary of Joe Biden's daughter, face four to ten months of jail time in the case.
01:05:44.000 Quote, the defendant's sentence must also account for the manner in which she has abused
01:05:48.000 the administration of justice throughout the pendency of this court proceeding.
01:05:52.000 The letter filed by U.S.
01:05:53.000 U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said.
01:05:55.000 The defendant has repeatedly and consistently engaged in tactics to improperly delay this
01:05:58.000 proceeding, including by misleading the court with false information to justify belated
01:06:02.000 and unmerited requests for adjournments, refusing to appear when directed, and failing to comply
01:06:07.000 with court orders to disclose or produce certain information.
01:06:10.000 In 2022, Harris and Robert Kurlander were arrested.
01:06:14.000 In connection with the theft of Ashley Biden's diary, the two pled guilty to conspiracy to commit interstate transportation of stolen property involving the theft of personal belongings of an immediate family member of then-former government official who was a candidate for national public office.
01:06:28.000 You know, the funny thing is it was like...
01:06:30.000 Diaries not real because in it doesn't she say that she was like molested by Biden?
01:06:35.000 Yeah, like in the shower and stuff.
01:06:37.000 Yeah, she uses the word molested.
01:06:38.000 I think right?
01:06:39.000 Yeah, she does use the word molested.
01:06:40.000 It was leaked and Project Veritas had bought the diary I think for like 40 grand.
01:06:46.000 And I remember at the time when that all came out and then they had turned it over directly to the FBI, they didn't publish any of it.
01:06:55.000 And then some of it was leaked, but they didn't publish it.
01:06:57.000 And I think O'Keefe is still facing charges over this.
01:07:01.000 He's still dealing with a legal fight over this whole situation, having received stolen property or whatever.
01:07:06.000 He turned over to the FBI.
01:07:08.000 He was raided by the FBI later.
01:07:09.000 The New York Times basically tipped off the FBI.
01:07:12.000 It was this whole mess.
01:07:14.000 And meanwhile, if I recall, the diary was found in a room, like all of the articles that I was reading about it today, it said that Ashley Biden had recently departed.
01:07:23.000 It makes it sound like she left her bag there and ran to the store and they stole her diary.
01:07:28.000 No, it was like she was staying at someone's house.
01:07:30.000 She was staying there.
01:07:30.000 She left her diaries.
01:07:32.000 She left a duffel bag of crap.
01:07:34.000 And took off.
01:07:34.000 Left.
01:07:35.000 And then another person came and sat in that room and was like, oh my gosh, I have Ashley Biden's diary.
01:07:39.000 But you're totally right.
01:07:40.000 There was this phase where they were like, that's not real.
01:07:42.000 It's fake.
01:07:43.000 It's the same thing they did with Hunter Biden's laptop.
01:07:46.000 And these children just have a problem leaving their possessions all around.
01:07:49.000 Did no one tell them to like take care of their stuff?
01:07:51.000 Maybe someone should have told Joe Biden not to molest his children.
01:07:55.000 That's possible as well.
01:07:58.000 The way they're going after this girl is the way they go after I forget the name of the guy who found hunters law or
01:08:04.000 the IT guy who wears the beret Isaac?
01:08:06.000 Isaac yeah, really is like I why am I being charged? I didn't do anything wrong
01:08:11.000 He asked me to fix his laptop left his equipment here. We're the ones in trouble
01:08:15.000 So it's the same.
01:08:16.000 The disclaimer says in 90 days it's mine.
01:08:18.000 Yeah.
01:08:19.000 Kill the messenger.
01:08:20.000 Kill the messenger.
01:08:21.000 In this case, the property finder.
01:08:24.000 It couldn't possibly be Hunter or Ashley's fault.
01:08:27.000 They have never done anything wrong in their entire lives.
01:08:30.000 I'm sure that everything they do is justified.
01:08:32.000 That's why we said run, Navy, run, run.
01:08:34.000 I know.
01:08:35.000 Stay in, Arkansas Navy.
01:08:37.000 No, it is wild to me that this was just confirming that the diary is real, that it's hers, that we're mad about, that the Democrats are mad about it, and also no matter what happens to the Biden children, they're supposed to be protected at all costs.
01:08:49.000 I mean, it makes me wonder what other stuff is buried that they are trying to insulate, you know, protect them from.
01:08:57.000 Any kind of consequences, right?
01:08:59.000 I mean, I feel sad for Ashley Biden in the sense that, like, if you have a very dark childhood and you write about it in a diary and it gets exposed to public, that must be difficult.
01:09:07.000 That must be hard.
01:09:08.000 On the other hand, it is interesting to me that you left your diary in someone's guest room, from what I can tell, and then just never came back for it.
01:09:19.000 Like, that does seem sort of like a careless move.
01:09:22.000 I think so, too.
01:09:23.000 Yeah.
01:09:25.000 And she's a little bit careless, I think.
01:09:27.000 This is a really messed up family.
01:09:30.000 Yeah, it's dark.
01:09:31.000 On so many levels. It's really messed up. I mean, this alone is very upsetting.
01:09:39.000 The fact that Hunter buried his brother and within days was sleeping with his widow.
01:09:46.000 You know, I mean, they're this is a really weird questions that like weird text messages with his niece.
01:09:49.000 It is arrested development.
01:09:50.000 With weird questions, weird text messages with his niece.
01:09:55.000 That was all weird.
01:09:57.000 Weird poses with his niece.
01:09:59.000 Yeah, all that stuff.
01:10:01.000 Yeah, this is a very messed up family and we can see what it's done to the country.
01:10:07.000 Yay.
01:10:08.000 But character doesn't matter.
01:10:09.000 We learned that in the Clinton administration.
01:10:11.000 Character doesn't matter.
01:10:13.000 The only thing that matters in elections is how many pieces of paper did you collect?
01:10:16.000 Yeah.
01:10:17.000 Everything else is just wishful thinking.
01:10:20.000 So everyone's like, oh, the Republicans need to spread October Surprise and share the story.
01:10:24.000 Dude, Democrats are so far beyond this.
01:10:26.000 I like the way you said- Democrats are like, collect as many pieces of paper as possible.
01:10:29.000 I like the way you said collect as many pieces of paper, not get people to vote.
01:10:32.000 Right.
01:10:32.000 Collect paper.
01:10:33.000 That's right.
01:10:35.000 Which is not the same thing.
01:10:37.000 Whoever has the most pieces of paper wins.
01:10:39.000 Yeah.
01:10:39.000 That's just, that's it.
01:10:40.000 Whoever has the most piece of paper.
01:10:42.000 Or the most computer tallies.
01:10:44.000 Sure.
01:10:44.000 Where you find a good thumb drive somewhere.
01:10:47.000 I mean, anything could happen.
01:10:49.000 Yeah.
01:10:49.000 Whoever has the most thumb drives they've forgotten brought in at four in the morning.
01:10:53.000 It's really a question of creativity at that point.
01:10:56.000 I think that's what we're looking at this November with everybody saying, oh, Republicans need to do this, need to do that.
01:11:01.000 It's like Republicans need to ballot harvest where it's legal.
01:11:04.000 Well, that's what Laura Trump was saying.
01:11:07.000 Right.
01:11:08.000 Which I think makes sense.
01:11:08.000 But I think, did you see the story we covered about the Social Security Administration voters?
01:11:14.000 Texas has hundreds of thousands of people registering to vote, 1.25 million since January that don't have IDs.
01:11:20.000 Oh boy.
01:11:21.000 And in Missouri, for the week of February 17th, 23,000 dead people tried to register to vote without an ID.
01:11:26.000 Oh boy, that's good.
01:11:27.000 That's a good number.
01:11:28.000 Yeah, so I think Republicans are going to be like, we got to win Arizona and Georgia, and then Democrats are going to somehow win Texas.
01:11:34.000 Yeah.
01:11:35.000 There you go.
01:11:36.000 Well, I think Texas has been in trouble for a while, but yeah.
01:11:39.000 Right, now you've got all these voter registrations and don't be surprised if they're like, in a shocking upset, Democrats won Texas, Republicans got the swing states, but Texas is worth more.
01:11:48.000 Well you're gonna, and you also have Merrick Garland who announced this the other day that he was trying to on the federal level abolish all voter ID laws because of a civil equity insert.
01:11:59.000 phrase here, right?
01:12:01.000 So, I mean, clearly, if you don't like voter identification, it's because you want to find an easier way to cheat.
01:12:06.000 It's just very, very simple.
01:12:08.000 I used to sort of think that, you know, not having voter ID had a little bit of some kind of honor to it, you know, and now I think there should just be voter ID.
01:12:17.000 Yeah.
01:12:18.000 Like, you have to get ID for everything.
01:12:20.000 Yeah.
01:12:21.000 Even when, before I had a license, I had to have a non-driver's ID.
01:12:23.000 You have to get a student ID.
01:12:24.000 Like, everybody has an ID.
01:12:25.000 Yeah.
01:12:26.000 You know?
01:12:26.000 If you ask gas station attendants... I think it's, like, racist to say that you can't get a... That you can't figure it out.
01:12:32.000 That you can't figure it out, like Kamala Harris.
01:12:34.000 Where are black people gonna get a copy machine?
01:12:36.000 If you're a gas station or a 7-Eleven attendant and you want to pass a rule that says I shouldn't have to ask for ID to sell beer, it's because you just want more people to buy beer.
01:12:44.000 Correct.
01:12:44.000 You know they're 17.
01:12:45.000 You don't want to go through the hassle.
01:12:47.000 You don't care that they're 17.
01:12:48.000 You just want to sell beer.
01:12:49.000 And similarly, they just want people to vote.
01:12:51.000 They don't care if they're illegal.
01:12:53.000 They know they're illegal.
01:12:54.000 None of that matters.
01:12:55.000 They just want people to vote.
01:12:56.000 And so it's all about cheating. 100%.
01:13:01.000 And they're good at it.
01:13:02.000 Maybe.
01:13:02.000 None of that even matters.
01:13:04.000 And we just get World War Three.
01:13:06.000 And then there's no election.
01:13:06.000 Yeah.
01:13:07.000 Yeah.
01:13:08.000 And then you'll eat the bugs and enjoy it.
01:13:09.000 Well, not me.
01:13:10.000 I have chickens.
01:13:11.000 You won't enjoy it.
01:13:13.000 For how much longer do you have chickens?
01:13:15.000 Forever.
01:13:16.000 Well, until they, no, we have to start, don't we have to start categorizing all the chickens?
01:13:21.000 That was a UK story.
01:13:23.000 Oh, okay.
01:13:23.000 But how long until the U.S.
01:13:25.000 tries to import that?
01:13:26.000 There's so much stuff that gets demoed in Europe that American politicians are like, that seemed like it might be working.
01:13:33.000 That's why we need to pass the 27th Amendment as soon as possible.
01:13:37.000 Which would be?
01:13:38.000 Chickens, being necessary for the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep, bear, and breed chickens shall not be infringed.
01:13:44.000 Amen.
01:13:45.000 It's too bad the founding fathers didn't think things like that would be necessary.
01:13:49.000 And I'm half kidding, but it's true.
01:13:51.000 There was probably never a thought in their mind where the government would come and try and take their chickens from them, or their goats, or their cows, or whatever.
01:13:56.000 But now we're literally at the point where the federal government is telling people they can't have their own milk.
01:13:59.000 There's a big story going on right now where they're trying to shut down a farm because he has wrong He has raw milk and they don't want him to be able to give it to anybody at all.
01:14:07.000 I think that's very rude.
01:14:08.000 But it's for your own good, right?
01:14:11.000 It's for the health.
01:14:12.000 Well, it's always for your own good.
01:14:13.000 Exactly.
01:14:13.000 We're just trying to protect you.
01:14:14.000 Same reason you have to take the COVID shot.
01:14:15.000 Exactly.
01:14:16.000 It's for your own good.
01:14:17.000 We're just trying to protect you from you.
01:14:18.000 Same reason that we have to shut down speech on the internet because it might be misinformation.
01:14:23.000 We're gonna legalize all these drugs, and that's totally fine, but you can't have raw milk.
01:14:28.000 Portland had decriminalized all these hard drugs, like, you know, heroin, and they just recently reversed it.
01:14:35.000 Because it turns out, letting everybody go run wild and get high and wander around the streets is not good for society.
01:14:41.000 I disagree.
01:14:42.000 I think the plan was, you open the dam, flood and destroy the city, then you close the dam, and you buy up all the property for dirt.
01:14:52.000 So these Democrat politicians want to gain, they want to buy, and they want to own.
01:14:58.000 So what do you do?
01:14:59.000 Okay, drugs are legal.
01:15:00.000 Property values collapse.
01:15:01.000 Crime skyrockets.
01:15:02.000 You buy up all the properties for cheap.
01:15:03.000 Okay, drugs are illegal again.
01:15:06.000 Oh yeah, that's kind of gross too.
01:15:07.000 Yep.
01:15:08.000 Bill de Blasio said after the COVID lockdowns he was going to buy up these buildings for public housing.
01:15:12.000 They're outright saying, we do a plan, then when the property value is destroyed, we get it for cheap.
01:15:17.000 Think about how crazy that is.
01:15:18.000 They're doing that in Maui.
01:15:19.000 The government Can literally say, we will enact a policy to destroy your property values, then buy them up for pennies on the dollar, and then get rid of that policy and sell it for profit.
01:15:28.000 You look in LA right now, and they passed this mansion tax, 4% on mansions from 5-10 million dollars, and the housing market collapsed 70%.
01:15:36.000 Yeah.
01:15:36.000 Duh.
01:15:39.000 Nobody wants to buy.
01:15:39.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:15:41.000 Why would you?
01:15:42.000 Especially when they're affording other states to live in.
01:15:46.000 Yeah, California is really leading on so many bad economic decisions.
01:15:53.000 It's admirable.
01:15:54.000 But Gavin Newsom is there!
01:15:56.000 You don't think he's doing a good job?
01:15:58.000 You always have to look at California because that's how the rest of the country is going to go.
01:16:01.000 That's something Erin Friday always says.
01:16:03.000 She's like a very gender critical woman in California.
01:16:06.000 She's, you know, lefty.
01:16:08.000 And she's just like, you guys got to watch it.
01:16:08.000 She's liberal.
01:16:10.000 Everything bad is happening in California, you know, and it's going to leak out into the rest of the country.
01:16:16.000 And it is.
01:16:16.000 In fact, I remember calling State Senator Brad Hoylman's office in New York City.
01:16:23.000 to ask some question about policy that they were doing.
01:16:26.000 And I said, you know, this is very similar to the policy they're doing in California.
01:16:29.000 It was a, you know, a sanctuary state for trans minors, right?
01:16:33.000 Whatever that is.
01:16:34.000 And the woman who I spoke with on the phone was very pleased to tell me that, in fact, Brad Hoylman's office had worked in concert with state senator in California Scott Weiner's office to launch similar legislation and that they had been working to Basically in concert to do that.
01:16:52.000 And so a lot of this legislation, once it hits California, it intentionally is leaked out into the rest of the country.
01:16:59.000 Yeah.
01:17:00.000 They lead on all things green.
01:17:02.000 Energy mandates, bans on fossil fuels, bans on gas cars.
01:17:07.000 Yeah, like cutting off the ability to sell gas cars.
01:17:10.000 Yeah.
01:17:11.000 What is that, 2030 they're going to do that?
01:17:11.000 And to buy gas cars.
01:17:13.000 2030.
01:17:14.000 I was looking at that today because Pete Buttigieg was basically making fun of anybody in the United States who doesn't want to have an EV.
01:17:19.000 And he was like, you know, the industry is moving to electric and American consumers want electric.
01:17:24.000 And so I was like, weren't there a ton of subsidies?
01:17:26.000 And yeah, it's like you could get $7,500 from the government if you buy an EV.
01:17:31.000 The American citizens want to pay less for vehicles.
01:17:34.000 They do not necessarily want EVs.
01:17:35.000 I dislike Pete Buttigieg on so many levels.
01:17:37.000 There's so many reasons, yeah.
01:17:38.000 And I've done a lot of radio on this in the last couple of days because he made that obnoxious
01:17:42.000 comparison. Totally condescending. Total disdain.
01:17:44.000 It was totally condescending.
01:17:45.000 Where he says, it reminds me of the early 2000s when people wouldn't give up their
01:17:49.000 landline because the cell phone came around. And you want to say, but little Cub Scout Pete,
01:17:53.000 when did the government ever say that landlines will be illegal by the year 2020?
01:17:58.000 When did we ever ban people?
01:18:02.000 When was there ever an incentive program to buy a cell phone?
01:18:05.000 There was never a, hey, we're doing a deal with Apple or Samsung or Razor Phone or Flip Phone.
01:18:11.000 Those were cool, those little Motorola's.
01:18:13.000 Yeah, the one that flipped up and it had the screen down at the bottom, right?
01:18:17.000 There was never a government incentive program and we never banned the competition.
01:18:17.000 Exactly.
01:18:22.000 So how offensive is it for you to say it's just like the cell phones where people refuse to... No, they didn't.
01:18:27.000 We didn't adopt...
01:18:29.000 Cell phones because in the beginning they stunk right and they were expensive and there are Seinfeld episodes making fun of it because they were so expensive and so unreliable and so But but the technology caught up with it and I do think the technology on all these things EVs etc May catch up one day.
01:18:47.000 I really don't but I have to say that It may catch up one day, but it will only catch up if the free market is allowed to operate.
01:18:54.000 But you've got idiots like Pete Buttigieg who subsidize this.
01:18:57.000 They have no incentive to produce a better product.
01:18:59.000 Why would you?
01:19:00.000 Why fight to make a better EV if the government's just gonna still give me free crap, free money, and force Hannah Clare to buy it.
01:19:08.000 Why would I want to make a better one?
01:19:09.000 If you have forced customers, he doesn't need to market to the American people, doesn't need to convince them.
01:19:09.000 That's the thing.
01:19:13.000 He just needs to kind of bully them and then also say it's happening anyway, so just fall in line.
01:19:18.000 And I think that mentality is terrible.
01:19:20.000 Yeah.
01:19:20.000 Well, Ford was going to launch an electric truck and an electric SUV, but they're now doing hybrid instead.
01:19:26.000 Yeah.
01:19:27.000 They push that back.
01:19:29.000 Toyota is the best example of this because Toyota always said, we are not going the EV route.
01:19:34.000 We are going to stick with hybrids.
01:19:35.000 Toyota is the world's largest auto manufacturer.
01:19:38.000 They don't joke around when it comes to cars.
01:19:40.000 And they said, we're never going to go electric because there's no market for it.
01:19:44.000 There are way too many supply change and raw material problems.
01:19:48.000 No, and they were getting blasted from the EU, they were getting blasted from the Biden administration, Toyota better get on board because we have forced the big three here in America, otherwise we're going to put them out of business, right?
01:20:00.000 Exactly.
01:20:01.000 And all these companies, and you mentioned earlier, all these auto jobs that are disappearing, right, because we've forced them to create a product that nobody wants.
01:20:09.000 Well, and that's why Trump was talking about the bloodbath, right?
01:20:12.000 The bloodbath in the automotive industry.
01:20:14.000 Because what he was saying is, these are good union jobs.
01:20:17.000 You know, these are people who are working, they make like $80,000 a year.
01:20:22.000 Why would we want to get rid of these jobs or ship them somewhere else?
01:20:25.000 Like, these are people who can, you know, buy homes and raise families with this salary.
01:20:31.000 That's what Americans... I think that's what Americans want.
01:20:33.000 That's what I want.
01:20:34.000 I want to have like... No, you want an electric vehicle.
01:20:37.000 Everyone wants an electric vehicle.
01:20:38.000 I want like decent money.
01:20:39.000 I want to be able to buy a house.
01:20:41.000 Yeah, they want to be able to live comfortably and support themselves, right?
01:20:44.000 But instead... That's what you want.
01:20:45.000 You want to be able to support yourself.
01:20:47.000 But instead you're being told you want an EV and you want the government to help you pay for it because that's nice of them and it makes them feel good about themselves even though actually so much of the economic policy is Biden's issue right now, right?
01:21:00.000 He puts you in this position and is giving you these sort of terrible party favors for being like, oh but now you could have an EV and Pete Buttigieg says that's cool.
01:21:08.000 This is a terrible trade.
01:21:09.000 Of course American people are sort of depressed and demoralized by it.
01:21:12.000 And there's no market signal that any of this is working, obviously, because we look at inflation, we look at prices.
01:21:17.000 But Biden is introducing this Climate Corps, right?
01:21:19.000 These 50,000 young people to engage.
01:21:22.000 And he says, because we want to get them jobs in the climate, in the green economy.
01:21:26.000 It's like, well, if the green economy was taking off, They would go!
01:21:29.000 You wouldn't need to make them!
01:21:30.000 Exactly!
01:21:31.000 You wouldn't need to, like, make fake jobs for them.
01:21:34.000 It wouldn't have to be, like, what was it, the FDR thing?
01:21:37.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:21:38.000 The New Deal for Climate Jobs.
01:21:39.000 Exactly.
01:21:40.000 I mean, they want a New Deal for that.
01:21:40.000 But that's what they want.
01:21:42.000 They do.
01:21:43.000 That's why they call it the Green New Deal.
01:21:45.000 Do you think the youngest generation's attitude towards environmental issues has changed as they have seen this kind of pressure from the government?
01:21:51.000 Or do you think, like, a lot of Gen Z grows up still thinking we have to prioritize the environment over everything?
01:21:55.000 Because that was definitely the messaging I felt like I got in school.
01:21:57.000 That's the Greta Thunberg thing.
01:21:58.000 The only messaging I got was, like, don't have sex, don't do drugs, you'll get AIDS and die.
01:22:04.000 That's solid advice.
01:22:06.000 Dad, go to college.
01:22:07.000 That's all I got.
01:22:08.000 We're gonna have to jump to this story here.
01:22:10.000 It's Thursday, and we're absolutely doing this story.
01:22:14.000 This is from the Telegraph.
01:22:16.000 Chicken keepers must register to beat bird flu.
01:22:19.000 Contact details species and purpose required under new rules to cut disease outbreaks.
01:22:24.000 Now, of course, you know we are very big fans of chickens here at TimCast IRL, but this is in line with all these stories about the restrictions they're putting on farming across Europe, where they're basically trying to stop people from being able to grow food In this instance, the argument is because of bird flu, which somehow is all over the U.S.
01:22:43.000 and in the U.K., you have to actually register your chickens.
01:22:47.000 First comes the registries, then comes the chicken bans.
01:22:51.000 We can't allow that.
01:22:52.000 Yeah, they always want you to be on a list of some sort.
01:22:54.000 It's weird.
01:22:56.000 And also, why don't you know how many chickens you have?
01:22:58.000 Like, this is none of their business.
01:23:00.000 It would be impossible if you had a legitimate farm, and I have a number of chickens, but I wouldn't even consider it a chicken, it's not a chicken farm.
01:23:10.000 Chickens come and go so damn fast if you had to register them.
01:23:14.000 Right?
01:23:14.000 You have a bad fox day or a bad hawk incident, you have no idea which ones until, what am I supposed to do, a head count every night?
01:23:20.000 You know what it'd be like?
01:23:21.000 It'd be like that book Dead Souls, did you ever read that?
01:23:25.000 So this Russian guy, he wants to be like an aristocrat.
01:23:28.000 So what he does is he goes around and he buys all the dead serfs.
01:23:30.000 Because if you have dead serfs, you still have to pay taxes on them until the end of the year.
01:23:34.000 And so everyone takes it because he buys them at half price.
01:23:36.000 It's very weird.
01:23:37.000 I love how they have just like this stock image of chickens for the article.
01:23:43.000 But someone was mentioning that in the United States they were doing something similar.
01:23:46.000 I haven't heard that.
01:23:46.000 Have you?
01:23:47.000 No, I mean, I'm not going to register my chickens.
01:23:51.000 I'm not going to allow anyone on.
01:23:52.000 I always joke about how the Department of Agriculture says there are 105,000 bureaucrats at the Department of Agriculture.
01:23:58.000 We have 20 million farms.
01:24:00.000 So in theory, each bureaucrat only has to manage 20 farms.
01:24:03.000 So I would like to meet my bureaucrat, but I would never allow him actually on the farm.
01:24:08.000 I'm not going to allow someone to come and register.
01:24:10.000 There's a couple things I have to comply with with the FDA, and I do.
01:24:13.000 I do a lot of DNA sampling of the sheep.
01:24:17.000 We pull hair samples to keep their registry intact for genetic purposes.
01:24:22.000 You know, if you're going to register it as an official breed, etc.
01:24:26.000 We don't sell them commercially for meat, so I don't have to worry about a lot of that.
01:24:29.000 What do you do with them?
01:24:31.000 I sell them to other sheep farms who need new bloodlines.
01:24:35.000 He's a sheep breeder.
01:24:36.000 I'm a sheep, yeah.
01:24:37.000 So, I mean, because you don't want, just like with chickens, right?
01:24:40.000 You have to introduce new DNA.
01:24:41.000 Oh, yeah.
01:24:41.000 That's why Roberto's King Regent, and Roberto Beaks III is the current king.
01:24:48.000 But you want to make sure that Roberto III isn't necessarily breeding his sisters and daughters.
01:24:55.000 It's good to introduce new blood.
01:24:56.000 Yeah, we've mostly broken up that bloodline, and that's why, you know, we brought in a bunch of outside girls, and now, you know, he's the current king.
01:25:05.000 His brother Scar is outside of Chicken City, so Roberto Jr., before passing, had several sons.
01:25:13.000 Roberto Beaks III, who's golden, became the new king, and his brother Scar, who has dark feathers, was shunned.
01:25:23.000 Removed.
01:25:24.000 To the outside of Chicken City, where he's in this pen with just two roosters.
01:25:27.000 He very much is very unhappy.
01:25:28.000 I'm sure he is.
01:25:29.000 And he wants to reclaim the throne, but we're not gonna let that happen.
01:25:32.000 That's why he's named Scar.
01:25:34.000 Yeah.
01:25:34.000 Could you imagine in Lion King, like, we have two sons, you are Mustafa, you're Scar.
01:25:39.000 That's terrible parenting.
01:25:41.000 People really rise to their names in that situation.
01:25:45.000 If you allow the chickens, though, to keep breeding, that's where you get geese from.
01:25:48.000 Geese are... That's not true.
01:25:52.000 That can't be true.
01:25:53.000 That's not true.
01:25:54.000 It's just Daniel Lai's... A goose is actually a chicken... Are you promoting this information right now on our reputable podcast?
01:26:01.000 Yes.
01:26:02.000 You just don't like geese, like many people don't like geese.
01:26:06.000 I should have said pigeons, actually.
01:26:07.000 That's what they are.
01:26:08.000 I think geese are pretty funny.
01:26:10.000 They honk.
01:26:10.000 You know what I mean?
01:26:11.000 It's great.
01:26:12.000 Chickens are hilarious, though.
01:26:13.000 I've been saying that the cure for depression is obviously having chickens.
01:26:16.000 Animals as a general rule are good for depression.
01:26:18.000 Yeah, but chickens are hilarious.
01:26:19.000 Chickens are fun.
01:26:20.000 So, Mr. Muttonchops, for instance, is one of the roosters.
01:26:23.000 He keeps escaping, and then he gets stuck outside and he walks around like a little moron.
01:26:27.000 He doesn't know what he's doing.
01:26:28.000 And there was a fox the other day, walking around behind, we could see him in the forest, and Mr. Muttonchop's gonna die.
01:26:34.000 He's probably outside right now.
01:26:35.000 He jumps on top of this little shelter and then jumps and escapes.
01:26:39.000 Now, we respect it, because he wants the grays in the fresh grass.
01:26:43.000 But now he's totally defenseless and clueless.
01:26:45.000 And they never know how to get back, which is my favorite thing.
01:26:47.000 They know how to fly over, and then they run along the fence line back and forth for ten minutes.
01:26:52.000 And it's like, you just do exactly the opposite of what you did.
01:26:55.000 You just did this!
01:26:56.000 They are good for a laugh.
01:26:57.000 Imagine a human...
01:26:59.000 Is like walking through the forest and they're on a dirt path.
01:27:04.000 They enter the forest and they walk forward and then all of a sudden they loop back to where they were and they're like, wait a minute, where's the path to get out?
01:27:11.000 And they keep walking in circles.
01:27:13.000 That's basically what it's like for a rooster.
01:27:15.000 The rooster jumps out of the pen and then goes through a dimensional barrier where it can't comprehend how to get back to the other side as though the dimensions around it folded.
01:27:25.000 That's so funny.
01:27:25.000 Chicken sci-fi.
01:27:26.000 This, though, is disconcerting, and I do think it will probably trickle its way into America, is that they will find a pandemic for any reason to register, whether it's your livestock, your family, your guns, your whatever, and they will always use health as an excuse.
01:27:41.000 And that's why they want to declare a climate crisis as a health crisis.
01:27:45.000 Once you start talking about health, you can do it.
01:27:47.000 That's why they did racism as a health crisis, because as soon as they declared racism as a health crisis, They said, you're allowed to go out and protest and that's okay.
01:27:55.000 If you don't want to protest, you sit your ass at home.
01:27:57.000 Yeah.
01:27:58.000 Only the people who are holy enough to go protest are allowed out of their homes.
01:28:02.000 Well, it wasn't like one of the goals of the World Economic Forum.
01:28:07.000 They had this video where it said, in the future, you'll live in a 15 minute city.
01:28:10.000 No one will go into the wilderness anymore.
01:28:13.000 They're building the line in Saudi Arabia.
01:28:16.000 That's a creepy place.
01:28:17.000 One big strip city.
01:28:19.000 They're actually building it.
01:28:19.000 I didn't think they would do it.
01:28:20.000 I thought it was BS.
01:28:21.000 Because we've heard stuff like this before with, um... Those must be some lucrative contracts.
01:28:26.000 What was that popular movement from Zeitgeist where, the Venus Project, where that guy Jacque Fresco was like, we're going to build concentric circle cities where everything is exactly where you need it and it's closer because they're in concentric circles or something like that.
01:28:41.000 Oh yeah, look at that.
01:28:43.000 Right, so basically, this is what they're doing with the line.
01:28:45.000 They're like, you have no reason to leave.
01:28:47.000 Everything you want is right here.
01:28:48.000 Step into the pod, eat the bugs, you'll be happy.
01:28:50.000 Well, Le Corbusier tried to do that in Paris, right?
01:28:53.000 At the beginning of the century, he wanted to bulldoze most of Paris and build those cruciform 40-story buildings and everyone was going to live in them.
01:29:01.000 And luckily, I don't know who the prime minister was at the time, was like, I don't think we should bulldoze Paris.
01:29:05.000 And they actually saved the world from destroying one of the most beautiful cities imaginable.
01:29:11.000 But there's always been this idea that if we can just control the way people live and keep them here, but the problem is you have to keep them there.
01:29:16.000 Well, and then Le Corbusier did the UN, which is just like, you know.
01:29:22.000 And that tells you all you need to know about the UN!
01:29:25.000 But there was a period of, like, 15 years ago, there were a lot of architects who were trying to build skyscrapers that would have everything in it that you could possibly need that had absolutely a zero carbon footprint, including, like, its own waste reclamation through what were called, like, living machines, which is a big botanical thing that treats waste and turns it into like, you know, the big garden kind of stuff.
01:29:52.000 And it was gonna these were big skyscrapers that were just going to have everything in them and you never have to leave the skyscraper.
01:29:57.000 And every several dozen floors or whatever, there would be like helipads in case you had to like get out for emergencies or whatever.
01:30:04.000 That's horrifying.
01:30:05.000 Pretty horrifying.
01:30:06.000 Pretty crazy.
01:30:06.000 Especially if they eventually will lock the doors.
01:30:09.000 Right.
01:30:09.000 Now you can't get out.
01:30:10.000 And then you're just in there.
01:30:12.000 Exactly.
01:30:12.000 Yeah.
01:30:12.000 Have you ever seen any of those interviews done with people?
01:30:17.000 There's two towers in Alaska that are kind of remote called baggage towers and they're like self-contained cities and it's just like it's very funny to see pictures of them because it'll be like You know, nothing.
01:30:27.000 Alaska, very beautiful.
01:30:29.000 And then you have these sort of tall city towers that are there.
01:30:31.000 Well, in Alaska, there are buildings where you don't have to ever leave.
01:30:35.000 That's what I'm talking about.
01:30:36.000 So this one's called Vegas Towers.
01:30:38.000 Is that the one near the military base?
01:30:39.000 I think it's a former military base.
01:30:41.000 And it's named after a congressman that went missing in Alaska.
01:30:45.000 Very interesting.
01:30:45.000 But I was watching a documentary on it the other day.
01:30:52.000 They were asking some of the high schoolers who lived there, like, with their families, like, do you like it here?
01:30:56.000 What it's like?
01:30:56.000 They're like, yeah, it's okay.
01:30:57.000 I mean, I don't know.
01:30:58.000 But they also talk about how they would never date any of the other high schoolers because it's like dating your sibling, right?
01:31:04.000 Like, if you create this really closed and circle world, on some ways, like, maybe that is nice.
01:31:10.000 You don't have to go very far to pick stuff up.
01:31:12.000 But Libby and I talk about, you know, one of the hard things living in more rural areas is, like, you have to drive to the store.
01:31:16.000 On the other hand, like, imagine how claustrophobic and sort of I feel like you could strike a balance, you know?
01:31:24.000 No, I think mobility is part of the human spirit, right?
01:31:30.000 Like as soon as someone says, like, now you don't have to leave, that makes you want to
01:31:33.000 be like, but why?
01:31:34.000 Why don't I have to leave?
01:31:35.000 And what else is out there?
01:31:37.000 I think if you were to create these contained cities, you would either create a population
01:31:42.000 that is really sort of docile and cold, which of course, maybe some people want, or you
01:31:47.000 create this other sort of more riotous human spirit that is like, I will not be contained.
01:31:51.000 And in some ways that becomes incompatible with cooperation.
01:31:55.000 I would, I would guess.
01:31:56.000 You are 100% right, and I think it's part of the human spirit, mobility without a doubt, and the car is emblematic of it in America, and it's part of our DNA, and it's why we rail so much as an organization about EVs.
01:32:08.000 Because they are not the same as a car, right?
01:32:11.000 They're limited distance, they're limited their requirement for charging, their ability to be shut down remotely.
01:32:17.000 The car is so much part of our rock and roll and our literature.
01:32:22.000 We are a car culture.
01:32:22.000 We're the highway culture.
01:32:24.000 People go to Europe and they're like, it's so cool.
01:32:25.000 They have these little trains and you take the train from Florence to Rome.
01:32:29.000 But that's why Europe is Europe, and we're not.
01:32:33.000 We are a car culture, and we like our cars.
01:32:35.000 Going back to the earlier conversation of why is the Democrat Party losing young men, even if you're the most liberally educated young man, there's something intrinsic in your DNA about liking a car, you know?
01:32:47.000 There is.
01:32:47.000 Machines.
01:32:49.000 We're the people who built the covered wagon, right?
01:32:51.000 And we said, we're putting all of our stuff in and we're going west.
01:32:54.000 That is the original road trip, much more brutal, but you know what I'm saying?
01:32:57.000 A lot of dysentery.
01:32:58.000 A lot of dysentery.
01:32:59.000 And look, maybe that's like some people's road trips, but that energy of, I'm going to take everything I want at a moment's notice and just go.
01:33:06.000 It's part of our spirit.
01:33:07.000 That's part of the American culture that's very unique.
01:33:09.000 You're right.
01:33:10.000 Can you get Oregon Trail on your phone?
01:33:11.000 Because I would totally play that game.
01:33:14.000 It's been a while.
01:33:14.000 I feel bad for kids who don't get to play Oregon Trail.
01:33:18.000 It's still alive and well.
01:33:19.000 I've seen children play it last year.
01:33:21.000 I'm just over here looking at the line and what that would be like.
01:33:24.000 Well, the question about the line, which I guess is a question for the family, for the king.
01:33:29.000 What the hell's his name?
01:33:33.000 The King.
01:33:34.000 Bin Salman?
01:33:35.000 Yeah, Mohamed Bin Salman.
01:33:38.000 How do you get people to live there?
01:33:40.000 Is it voluntary?
01:33:41.000 The line?
01:33:41.000 Yeah.
01:33:42.000 Are they conscripting people to go live there?
01:33:44.000 Specially selected!
01:33:45.000 Is there a prize?
01:33:46.000 There will be no shortage of people who want to live there.
01:33:49.000 It's going to be hard to live there.
01:33:51.000 It'll be hard to find.
01:33:52.000 It's going to be super expensive.
01:33:54.000 It's going to be an international city of wealthy elites.
01:34:00.000 Yeah.
01:34:00.000 And people are going to want to be there because it's going to be the new... The new Dubai.
01:34:05.000 Yeah, I mean... Can you drink?
01:34:07.000 It's still Saudi Arabia, right?
01:34:08.000 They advertise it with work-life balance, legacy-free urbanism.
01:34:12.000 Legacy-free urbanism.
01:34:14.000 Because it has no culture.
01:34:15.000 Bourbon?
01:34:15.000 That's fascinating.
01:34:16.000 It has no history, it has no culture.
01:34:18.000 That is interesting.
01:34:18.000 Does it have bourbon?
01:34:21.000 It's not giving me those answers.
01:34:22.000 I mean that's like the real thing.
01:34:23.000 It does have enhanced livability, leisure and sports, vertical living, next-gen architecture, walkable communities and environmental solutions.
01:34:31.000 The one that really gets me though is legacy-free urbanism.
01:34:34.000 I like the legacy of cities.
01:34:36.000 I like when you go to a city and you see that it's all built on top of itself for centuries and like you know the old things about it.
01:34:44.000 You know like my great-grandfather had a pizzeria in Brooklyn that he built and My grandfather and my great-grandfather built the pizza oven.
01:34:51.000 I could go check it out.
01:34:52.000 I like that.
01:34:52.000 That's cool.
01:34:53.000 I like legacy.
01:34:54.000 I want history in my city.
01:34:56.000 I did this walking tour in Paris.
01:34:58.000 I did this walking tour in Charleston, South Carolina.
01:35:00.000 And at one point they were like, and over here is where the pirate millionaires retired to because we had a serious pirate culture and this is how it influenced the American economy.
01:35:10.000 Next-gen architecture could never, they would not have these things.
01:35:13.000 They're trying to erase blank slate and the things, especially when it comes to Europe, America, all of these places that have very unique, ever-changing cities like that, you want to be able to point to and this is how we got here.
01:35:27.000 That's part of the legacy, that's part of what makes it unique.
01:35:29.000 And that's... now we're going back to an immigration issue and that's part of the problem with bringing in... It's always an immigration issue.
01:35:35.000 That's part of the problem with importing hundreds of thousands, tens of millions of people and dumping them in these cities because I also have New York lineage that goes back...
01:35:46.000 to the revolution and we can walk around the city and be like that used to that used to but if you just dropped here because Biden put you on a boat or on a bus and now you're you're not you're not a New Yorker you don't have a love for this city you don't have any patrimony you don't have any sense of I belong to one of the cool things about New York also is that it's the one of the only places that people can move to voluntarily and in five minutes call themselves a New Yorker I mean, like, I can't ever call myself a Virginian.
01:36:11.000 I've been here for a long time, been there for a long time, don't have the accent.
01:36:15.000 You can't call yourself a Virginian?
01:36:16.000 How long have you been here?
01:36:17.000 Because I'm not really a Virginian, right?
01:36:19.000 I'm a New Yorker.
01:36:20.000 Right.
01:36:21.000 My blood is New York City.
01:36:23.000 I would say that I'm a New Yorker as well.
01:36:25.000 Yeah, but if you just get dumped there because... You have no ties to it.
01:36:31.000 You cross the border illegal and they put you on a plane and now you're never going to have enough... It requires intentionality.
01:36:37.000 It does.
01:36:38.000 We're gonna go to Super Chats!

01:36:53.000 Let's read your Super Chats!
01:36:54.000 Clint Torres, of course, the first Super Chat saying, howdy people!
01:36:59.000 That's right, Paps McGee says, hey Tim, thanks for having Macaulay Culkin on the show yesterday.
01:37:03.000 Good thing I was home alone to watch the show.
01:37:05.000 Aha!
01:37:08.000 Juan Cazza's late cast, Ian, any tips for the feeling of regret?
01:37:12.000 Ian's got no advice right now.
01:37:18.000 Are you tonight's Ian?
01:37:21.000 You are the Ian tonight.
01:37:22.000 Yeah, I don't know.
01:37:24.000 I don't know.
01:37:24.000 Got nothing.
01:37:25.000 All right, well, there you go.
01:37:26.000 Sorry, sir.
01:37:27.000 Your super chat just went into the wind.
01:37:29.000 Apologies.
01:37:30.000 Andrea Viola says, first, thanks for all you do, Tim and crew.
01:37:33.000 You are not first, unfortunately.
01:37:35.000 But thanks for the thanks.
01:37:37.000 Danny Voiles presents, says Tim, would you kindly shout out our new short, The Ballad of Rich and Champ on YouTube.
01:37:44.000 Doing our part to help rebuild culture by starting our own production studio.
01:37:48.000 Would love to help make some of your film ideas a reality too.
01:37:53.000 Did you guys see that ice cream commercial I tweeted out the other day?
01:37:55.000 No.
01:37:57.000 We're going to play it in the after show.
01:37:59.000 No, I'll play it before that.
01:37:59.000 We played it in the after show yesterday, I think.
01:38:02.000 It's a Halo Top commercial.
01:38:04.000 And it is one of the greatest commercials I have ever seen.
01:38:06.000 I won't spoil it for you.
01:38:07.000 Is it a new one?
01:38:08.000 No, it's pretty old, but I've never seen it before.
01:38:10.000 And Jessica, who works here, shared it in our chat.
01:38:13.000 And then I watched it and I was laughing nonstop.
01:38:15.000 It's one of the best commercials I have ever seen.
01:38:18.000 But it's a good example of the short films that I'd like to make.
01:38:22.000 We have a lot of ideas that we've talked about doing.
01:38:24.000 I think we're actually going to start working on them.
01:38:26.000 That's been the plan for the past couple of months.
01:38:28.000 There used to be great commercials regularly.
01:38:30.000 They're not anymore, but commercials used to be great.
01:38:33.000 If you haven't seen this one.
01:38:34.000 I haven't.
01:38:34.000 You gotta watch it.
01:38:35.000 I look forward to it.
01:38:35.000 I'll stick around for the after show.
01:38:37.000 How about that?
01:38:37.000 Yeah, it's just so good.
01:38:39.000 Only if you bring a lamb.
01:38:41.000 Yeah.
01:38:43.000 KatothSwiss says, good thing Biden unfroze that six billion for Iran.
01:38:46.000 Almost like this was his intention.
01:38:48.000 Yeah.
01:38:51.000 Eject says, for liberty and managed democracy.
01:38:55.000 There you go.
01:38:56.000 PolyPRA says, no Ian?
01:38:58.000 Yeah, where is he?
01:39:00.000 He missed workout class all, every day this week.
01:39:02.000 I thought he was in the house.
01:39:04.000 I don't know.
01:39:04.000 You know, I was lifting and on the verge of barfing today.
01:39:08.000 Cause I skated, I skated for two hours and skated pretty well.
01:39:11.000 Got a good, got a switch hard flip, a late 180.
01:39:14.000 Good trick.
01:39:15.000 And then went right up to lifting.
01:39:16.000 And then by the time we like, we were three quarters through, I was like, I am going to throw up.
01:39:21.000 Because just at my limit, man.
01:39:24.000 Drink water.
01:39:25.000 I did.
01:39:25.000 I drank water.
01:39:26.000 I drank a sports drink and just at my limit.
01:39:31.000 Pushing it is good.
01:39:32.000 It's worth it, though.
01:39:34.000 Let's go.
01:39:35.000 True Halo says, What about the aid workers in Afghanistan who were loading water and Biden blew them up to deflect from his own failures when 13 American military members were killed?
01:39:46.000 What about collateral murder?
01:39:48.000 Man, that's like 14 years ago now.
01:39:50.000 It's so crazy to think about.
01:39:53.000 14 years ago, Julian Assange released that video footage of the Apache helicopter blowing up all those people, including that Reuters journalist.
01:40:02.000 I don't remember that.
01:40:03.000 That was one of the big first WikiLeaks things.
01:40:06.000 Yeah.
01:40:06.000 Maybe not big first, but like... It was early.
01:40:09.000 Yeah, early.
01:40:11.000 I mean, WikiLeaks has probably been around for a lot longer than that, but it was in the press.
01:40:14.000 He ended up going... I think he got interviewed by Colbert or something.
01:40:17.000 Big news, crazy.
01:40:19.000 There are children who are 14 years old who were born when that aired.
01:40:26.000 There are people who are voting right now who are... They were 10 years old at the time, had no idea what was going on in politics, and are now 24 and asking questions about why this stuff is so broken.
01:40:38.000 It's like, well, let's take you back.
01:40:40.000 We're all aging and old now, so... The world is a dangerous place.
01:40:47.000 Well, and to know that whatever the history is that's written is going to be just bizarre and not actually what really happened.
01:40:54.000 Yeah.
01:40:54.000 Of anything.
01:40:55.000 It's concerning about who's going to take over the role of historian in society, you know?
01:40:59.000 I think we're going to have very, very different textbooks.
01:41:03.000 Yeah.
01:41:05.000 We'll see.
01:41:05.000 I mean, it's been interesting because, you know, people like to say history is written by the victors, and that was true for a long time, but it's been changing quite a bit.
01:41:13.000 I think someone made a good point about there's tons of Confederate perspective.
01:41:18.000 Like Civil War stuff, you could read all about the Confederate generals and what they thought.
01:41:22.000 So, certainly, not all history is written by the victors these days, but most of it is.
01:41:26.000 It's written by the disgruntled, it seems.
01:41:29.000 Yeah.
01:41:30.000 I ended up reading a memoir of, um, not Jefferson Davey's wife, but the, his, like, vice president guy's wife.
01:41:38.000 And it was fascinating.
01:41:39.000 I had read nothing.
01:41:40.000 I knew nothing about the Confederacy.
01:41:42.000 Oh, really?
01:41:42.000 Yeah.
01:41:43.000 Well, I mean, I grew up in Boston.
01:41:44.000 Like, we're proud Yankees up there.
01:41:46.000 So, we don't know anything about that.
01:41:51.000 Dylan Binkley says, end the war means from the river to the sea.
01:41:56.000 Hmm.
01:41:57.000 Ask Colbert.
01:41:58.000 Is that what he meant?
01:41:59.000 Right.
01:42:00.000 AB 936 says Obamacare allows companies like BCBS to purchase plans from the government and enroll criminal aliens.
01:42:08.000 Non-profits pay premiums for thousands of aliens on dialysis.
01:42:12.000 Now dialysis clinics are everywhere.
01:42:17.000 Yeah, they're just burning the country down.
01:42:18.000 I don't know what else to tell you.
01:42:20.000 Roasting it.
01:42:22.000 Jackie says, Jill and Colbert are more of a president than Joe.
01:42:25.000 A pretty low bar, don't you think?
01:42:26.000 Alright, that was a joke I was making.
01:42:28.000 Like, Colbert probably has more authority than Joe Biden does.
01:42:32.000 Joe Biden doesn't even know what's going on.
01:42:33.000 He was asked about the Trans Day of Visibility, and he's like, I didn't do that.
01:42:36.000 It's like, yeah, I did.
01:42:39.000 You know, what if the reality is Joe Biden thinks he's president, but he's not?
01:42:42.000 And so he literally goes out and does these speeches where he thinks he's actually in charge, and they're just off doing other stuff.
01:42:48.000 I think that is what happens all the time.
01:42:49.000 Do you think Obama's really like pulling the strings like people say?
01:42:53.000 To a great degree, probably.
01:42:54.000 Probably less than most people think, but probably to a great degree.
01:42:57.000 Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it's like, hey, you know, we have a foreign policy decision, Jake Sullivan, Blinken.
01:43:03.000 Like, let's just ask President Obama.
01:43:04.000 Like, hey, we just wanted to get your thoughts.
01:43:06.000 What do you think?
01:43:07.000 Well, and so many of the staffers in the Biden White House are hangovers from the Obama administration.
01:43:13.000 Especially if you watch, like, when they step down, I'm like, oh, well, they first served under Obama.
01:43:17.000 It's like a continuation of the Obama era, for sure.
01:43:21.000 The last campaign says my grandpa was telling me about how in Revelations, the entire world will turn on Israel.
01:43:27.000 That seems to be what's happening.
01:43:29.000 He is a preacher and never preached about the end times until now.
01:43:34.000 Is it the end of days?
01:43:36.000 I'm tired.
01:43:36.000 I think you should have a picture on and ask him.
01:43:38.000 So tired.
01:43:39.000 No, an eschatologist.
01:43:40.000 That's what it's called, right?
01:43:41.000 Eschatology is the theology of the end of the world.
01:43:45.000 Oh, we gotta get someone for that.
01:43:47.000 I mean, we got the eclipse on Monday, and what are we doing tomorrow on culture where we're talking about Steven Crowder's divorce?
01:43:52.000 If the locusts show up next week, just... They are!
01:43:55.000 The cicadas!
01:43:56.000 You didn't know that?
01:43:57.000 Is it cicadas season?
01:43:59.000 It is the dual emergence phenomenon, they say.
01:44:02.000 That only happens once every 200 years.
01:44:04.000 Oh, good lord, that's it.
01:44:06.000 The dual emergence cicadas, but in Illinois, I guess.
01:44:08.000 Make your peace with your god and... Cicadas!
01:44:11.000 Those things are so gross.
01:44:13.000 When we had the cicadas a couple years ago here, the chickens...
01:44:19.000 The chickens who are alive for it probably speak to the other chickens of the great legends.
01:44:23.000 They gather them at night, tell stories.
01:44:25.000 And they're like, when we were young, the bugs were as big as your head.
01:44:30.000 Back in my day.
01:44:31.000 And then they were like, shut up, grandpa.
01:44:33.000 That's not true.
01:44:33.000 Bugs aren't that big.
01:44:35.000 We would go, we'd get gloves and jars, and we would just shovel cicadas into the jars and then chuck them.
01:44:41.000 We didn't have to buy chicken food.
01:44:42.000 No.
01:44:42.000 It was nuts.
01:44:43.000 I wonder if I could dry them.
01:44:44.000 That's a good idea.
01:44:45.000 Are we getting cicadas?
01:44:46.000 No.
01:44:47.000 I was gonna say... I mean, they're always around a little bit.
01:44:47.000 Oh, darn.
01:44:50.000 You'll see one or two here and there.
01:44:51.000 You can hear them a little bit, yeah.
01:44:52.000 Yeah, but we had the crazy emergence, what was it, two, three years ago or something?
01:44:55.000 Was it three years ago at this point?
01:44:57.000 Yeah, pretty sure it was three years ago.
01:44:59.000 Well, that is surprising.
01:45:01.000 I remember that very, very vividly because they were so loud and I thought it was like last year.
01:45:04.000 No, maybe it was two years ago.
01:45:06.000 No, you can Google it.
01:45:08.000 But they were just nuts.
01:45:10.000 They were flying around and we had the bug blaster.
01:45:15.000 It sprays salt.
01:45:16.000 Oh, I have one of those.
01:45:17.000 And we would blast them out of the sky and then feed them to the chickens.
01:45:20.000 We were just going hunting.
01:45:21.000 So they were seasoned as well when you gave them to the chickens.
01:45:24.000 Yeah.
01:45:24.000 Yeah, I think only... Lots of you!
01:45:26.000 Yeah, you'd blast them and they'd go... That was crazy.
01:45:30.000 I think you're supposed to grind them up and eat them.
01:45:32.000 No, only for the chicken.
01:45:33.000 Apparently it tastes like shrimp.
01:45:35.000 Ew.
01:45:35.000 I didn't eat one.
01:45:36.000 That's a no from me, dog.
01:45:38.000 Someone here ate one.
01:45:40.000 Was it Richie McGinnis?
01:45:43.000 If I'm wrong on this, Richie's like, what?
01:45:44.000 I didn't eat a cicada.
01:45:45.000 I think it might've been Richie McGinnis.
01:45:47.000 I don't know.
01:45:48.000 Someone ate a cicada.
01:45:49.000 One day we'll have to by force.
01:45:51.000 Because that will be the only food left after they've taken our chickens.
01:45:54.000 There was a restaurant in DC that was serving fried cicadas.
01:45:57.000 Yeah.
01:45:57.000 And then the health department was like, you cannot pull bugs off the ground and serve them to people.
01:46:03.000 They're like, this is the New World Order, though.
01:46:05.000 You hate us.
01:46:06.000 Yeah, it's crazy because the news was like, look at this.
01:46:09.000 How cool.
01:46:10.000 They're serving cicadas.
01:46:11.000 And it was like cicada tacos.
01:46:12.000 And the hipsters were like, look at me.
01:46:14.000 I'm eating it.
01:46:15.000 And the health department comes in.
01:46:16.000 They were like, sir, you can't take bugs off the ground and fry them and feed them to people.
01:46:19.000 It's like rat tacos.
01:46:22.000 They're all locally sourced.
01:46:23.000 Well, you can do that in New York now.
01:46:25.000 Haven't you seen the people with the spits outside in New York City on the sidewalks?
01:46:29.000 That video was fake, though, where the lady was spitting the rats.
01:46:33.000 But for how much longer is it fake?
01:46:34.000 Do you know what's funny?
01:46:35.000 So there was a rat problem in Brooklyn, and so they brought in possums to deal with the rats.
01:46:40.000 Now there's a possum problem?
01:46:41.000 Now there's a possum problem!
01:46:43.000 I remember sitting in my apartment, and my son was like, Bob, look!
01:46:48.000 What's going on?
01:46:49.000 And there were possums running across the electric wires, fighting.
01:46:53.000 Wow.
01:46:54.000 So now get bobcats to get rid of opossums.
01:46:57.000 That will work.
01:46:59.000 And then you bring in gorillas to get rid of bobcats.
01:47:02.000 And then the best part is, when winter comes, the gorillas simply freeze to death.
01:47:06.000 Right?
01:47:07.000 They're just on the street.
01:47:08.000 And then the rats will eat the carcasses and you start all over again.
01:47:12.000 Oh, I love nature!
01:47:14.000 There's a garbage man strike.
01:47:15.000 They're like, we're not picking up frozen gorillas.
01:47:17.000 It's funny how often humans try this and it doesn't work.
01:47:20.000 Because they did in Australia with the cane toads.
01:47:22.000 Right?
01:47:22.000 Not smart.
01:47:23.000 What animal did they bring in for the carry off?
01:47:25.000 They're like, hey, we have too many of this animal.
01:47:26.000 Let's bring in another animal.
01:47:27.000 Then they have too many of that animal.
01:47:29.000 My favorite story is when that town in India or whatever it was, they had a snake problem.
01:47:35.000 So the government offered money to anyone who brought the heads of a snake in.
01:47:38.000 So the people just started breeding snakes because the government was buying them.
01:47:42.000 Disavow.
01:47:43.000 Terrible idea.
01:47:43.000 That's great.
01:47:46.000 The cane toads came in to help with the beetle problem for the sugar cane industry.
01:47:51.000 And now they're an extremely, yes, they're an invasive species.
01:47:54.000 They've done very well.
01:47:56.000 According to the internet.
01:47:57.000 Cane toads.
01:47:58.000 Those toads.
01:47:59.000 So the, uh, the toad eggs.
01:48:02.000 I got some clarifications, because Michael Maus was on the show, and Michael, he said, he was very wrong about toads.
01:48:08.000 He said that toads live on land, and not in water, and he called the tadpoles toadlets, and so I was just like, oh, okay, you know, whatever.
01:48:17.000 We have tadpoles from the toads in our pond.
01:48:20.000 Toads live in land and water.
01:48:22.000 I thought they were amphibious.
01:48:23.000 They're amphibious.
01:48:24.000 They live on land and water.
01:48:25.000 They're not just on land, and they don't give birth to toadlets.
01:48:28.000 They lay eggs, which become tadpoles, and the tadpoles then grow legs and then hop out of the water and mill about, but then they go in the water and they lay eggs.
01:48:35.000 And the toads that we have very much live in the water.
01:48:38.000 Of course, because they're amphibious.
01:48:40.000 Right.
01:48:40.000 That was never in question.
01:48:41.000 Well, when we were on the show, Michael was arguing with me that toads live on land.
01:48:45.000 And I was like... Was he faking it?
01:48:47.000 We have four toads living in the water.
01:48:49.000 I do like the term toadlets, I will say.
01:48:52.000 That sounds kind of cute.
01:48:54.000 I think there's one species of frog where it births them out of its back or something.
01:48:58.000 That is disgusting.
01:48:59.000 Yeah, the ones we have are American toads.
01:49:01.000 They laid a bunch of eggs.
01:49:03.000 The eggs, they're little black balls in a jelly tube.
01:49:06.000 It's literally a jelly, it's like a weird jelly tube.
01:49:09.000 And what happens is they're starting to become longer and longer.
01:49:13.000 So the little balls have started to divide and they're turning into ovals.
01:49:17.000 And then that's the tadpole and then it breaks out and swims around and eats algae.
01:49:21.000 And the toads are living in the water.
01:49:23.000 In fact, they're underwater all day.
01:49:25.000 They almost never come up.
01:49:26.000 They just, they live there.
01:49:28.000 They'll, like, peek their head out and then scream.
01:49:32.000 It is insane how loud they are.
01:49:34.000 No joke.
01:49:35.000 I'm impressed.
01:49:36.000 This little guy, this big, and you can hear it on the other side of the house, or you can hear it in the basement.
01:49:41.000 We're like, brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr They don't shut up.
01:49:49.000 Really?
01:49:50.000 Oh, yeah.
01:49:50.000 And then when they all play together right now, they're all very vocal.
01:49:53.000 They're all about... Well, I mean, some are born... I'll pull lambs tonight.
01:49:57.000 You said it's lamb season, right?
01:49:58.000 It's lamb season.
01:49:59.000 The oldest ones are about two weeks old, but we still have a bunch more, and yeah, they're very loud.
01:50:04.000 And their moms are hungry, so the moms go out to eat, and they kind of lose their kids, and then the kids can't find them, and all the moms look the same.
01:50:11.000 And the kids all panic.
01:50:12.000 So I spend every now and then picking up a lamb and bringing it back to its mom.
01:50:16.000 Let's get some more Super Chats.
01:50:17.000 James Jarvis says, Thank you, Tim.
01:50:19.000 I now have 22 chickens, 2 goats, 12 turkeys, and a garden thanks to listening to you.
01:50:23.000 The food costs and shortages will get worse.
01:50:26.000 And the best thing about having 22 chickens is that soon you'll have 50.
01:50:31.000 Yeah, and register them.
01:50:32.000 Yeah.
01:50:33.000 See, the great thing about chickens is that they make more of themselves.
01:50:37.000 Just, the silkies, we have, uh, they just keep having babies.
01:50:41.000 The funny thing is a couple of the chickens have been hiding their eggs.
01:50:44.000 They, like, going up into the rafters and laying their eggs up there, where it's like really difficult to get to.
01:50:49.000 I didn't know you had silkies.
01:50:51.000 Yeah, we have silkies.
01:50:52.000 Oh, silkies are beautiful.
01:50:53.000 Yeah, we have like a naked neck silky, too.
01:50:55.000 And, uh, silkies love having babies.
01:50:57.000 Why do they hide their eggs just so you can't get to them?
01:50:59.000 I don't know.
01:51:00.000 They want to lay eggs somewhere.
01:51:01.000 Because they're tricky?
01:51:02.000 Yeah, they're not brooding on them.
01:51:04.000 So, like, the regular, like, the miscellaneous backyard chickens, they'll, like, brood for a little bit and then give up.
01:51:10.000 And just, like, leave their eggs half incubated and then they'll just, we gotta throw them away.
01:51:13.000 What?
01:51:14.000 Yeah.
01:51:15.000 The silkies, they don't get up.
01:51:17.000 They're committed?
01:51:18.000 Yeah, so what you do is, you take the eggs from other chickens when a silkie is brooding, and you put them under the silkie.
01:51:22.000 And she'll take them, it's great.
01:51:23.000 Yeah, and then another funny trick you can do is, if a chicken is brooding and you want it to stop, and you have eggs incubating, you can actually, or you can do this, you can go to a store and buy a baby chick, Stick it under the brooding chicken and take the eggs out, and then when the mama hen hears the peeping, it'll get up and go, I'm done!
01:51:45.000 And then it'll raise the baby.
01:51:48.000 Could you imagine, like, aliens doing it to humans?
01:51:50.000 Or just, like, pregnant women.
01:51:51.000 You're like, here, have a toddler.
01:51:53.000 And she's like, no more pregnancy.
01:51:55.000 Guess I'll just live with this big stomach for a while.
01:51:57.000 Yeah, so that's what they actually say you could do is if you have like a new flock and the chicken's brooding on like one or two eggs, just buy some chickens from like tractor supply, stick them onto the chicken, and then she'll raise them.
01:52:11.000 And so it makes it easier.
01:52:12.000 You know, we're dealing with sheep, which is kind of cute as just like human women, sheep women only have two nipples.
01:52:17.000 So if they have triplets, it's a problem because there are three babies, two nipples.
01:52:21.000 So if you have one who has a triplet and one who has one, If they're born around the same time, you can take one baby, kind of rub it in the afterbirth of the other mom, and put it there, and the mom will, and she'll be like, oh man, I had twins!
01:52:33.000 And she'll just totally embrace it, and then we call it grafting, and then now, twins, and it's a lot easier.
01:52:38.000 And it's really funny, because the mom was like, I didn't think I had two, but I clearly did!
01:52:42.000 It's very, very cute.
01:52:44.000 You could just do what they did at the Simpsons, and the extra baby comes right out of the mother, onto a conveyor belt, into a meat grinder.
01:52:50.000 Oh, gosh.
01:52:52.000 That's worse.
01:52:53.000 Yep.
01:52:54.000 That's worse.
01:52:55.000 It's much less cute, I will say.
01:52:58.000 All right, all right.
01:52:58.000 The Big Guy says, shout out to Charlestown Plumbing, Martinsburg Journal, and Tri-State, best of best 2024, for your night and weekend plumbing needs at Freedomistan.
01:53:09.000 Night and weekend.
01:53:09.000 Oh, hey, shout out.
01:53:11.000 That's so cool.
01:53:12.000 Are you guys excited for November?
01:53:12.000 Yep.
01:53:13.000 I'm really excited- I'm really looking forward to it.
01:53:15.000 since early November. Americans don't comprehend the damage and peril of wokeism.
01:53:15.000 November?
01:53:20.000 Rachel Levine, Sam Brinton, etc. is a disaster.
01:53:23.000 She, Putin, the Ayatollah, etc. smell blood in the water, so the world has crumbled.
01:53:27.000 Yep.
01:53:29.000 Are you guys excited for November? I'm really excited. I'm really looking forward to it.
01:53:33.000 November? You mean October.
01:53:34.000 Well, the election is in November.
01:53:38.000 That's what I'm talking about.
01:53:39.000 But that doesn't matter.
01:53:40.000 What matters is the month right before, excuse me, when we get the October surprise.
01:53:44.000 Sure.
01:53:45.000 I just mean that, like, when the election is over, even though stuff happens before, when we declare the election over in November, hopefully that will send a better signal to the rest of the world.
01:53:54.000 Well, the thing is with 2020, you know, I had said something like, if Trump doesn't win, these people are going to go down in November and they're going to, like, go nuts and storm the White House or something.
01:54:04.000 And then it actually, they went to the Capitol on January 6th.
01:54:08.000 So, who knows?
01:54:11.000 It might be June of 2025.
01:54:13.000 You know, Biden wins and then his heart explodes from his chest and he collapses on stage and then there's disarray and no one knows what's going on and Kamala Harris goes, oh jeez, and then- We have to graft him to another lamb.
01:54:25.000 It's like a whole thing.
01:54:27.000 Yeah.
01:54:30.000 Delamar says, Tim, you greatly underestimate the firepower of the U.S.
01:54:32.000 military.
01:54:33.000 In actual war, two weeks we can wreck Iran without using nukes.
01:54:38.000 Don't let the budget-hungry DoD fool you with their we-are-not-strong-enough stitch.
01:54:42.000 Sir, I disagree with you.
01:54:43.000 My point was, if the U.S.
01:54:45.000 were to make a military move on Iran, it would instantly trigger war with many other countries, and it would destroy a bunch of trade lines.
01:54:54.000 The U.S.
01:54:54.000 would not be able to maintain a war against Iran.
01:54:57.000 This is why they're paralyzed.
01:54:59.000 They surrounded Iran and then they're like, now what?
01:55:03.000 What are you gonna do?
01:55:05.000 Just leave me alone says World War 3 equals no election.
01:55:10.000 Perhaps.
01:55:11.000 What do we do with all that paper?
01:55:13.000 Brute Dude says, first time super chat, wife and I have been struggling with fertility for years.
01:55:18.000 I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
01:55:20.000 Our doctor said that when he started in 06, he would have one appointment a day.
01:55:24.000 Today he has lines down the street. Huge problem for millennials.
01:55:27.000 Probably because they're all in their 30s.
01:55:29.000 I think if it was a bunch of like 20 year olds, they're gonna be like, we got too many kids already!
01:55:35.000 But you get a bunch of 30-year-olds and they're like, we're having issues.
01:55:38.000 Yeah, I think it's 30s and also, you know, all kinds of endocrine disruptors that we naturally mix into society.
01:55:44.000 Microplastics.
01:55:45.000 That's why glass bottles.
01:55:48.000 Glass.
01:55:49.000 Those are- see, you know what I just learned?
01:55:51.000 We have these reusable glass bottles, and our guests- our guests have been throwing them in the garbage.
01:55:55.000 Oh!
01:55:56.000 I always leave them on the table.
01:55:56.000 What?
01:55:58.000 What do you mean?
01:55:58.000 Me too.
01:55:59.000 Yeah, because, uh, well look, this is a glass bottle, right?
01:56:02.000 This is Saratoga Still glass bottle.
01:56:04.000 Yeah, there's tons of glass bottles.
01:56:05.000 You throw them away and you're done.
01:56:07.000 You throw a glass bottle in the garbage.
01:56:08.000 So we bought these nice reusable glass bottles for our filtered water, and some of the guests who don't know just assume it's stock water from the grocery store in a water bottle, and they drink it and throw in the garbage.
01:56:19.000 And then when the garbage gets taken out, our bottles are all gone.
01:56:22.000 And then one day I'm like, where's our water?
01:56:24.000 And they're like, oh, the bottles all got thrown away.
01:56:25.000 So did you have to get new ones?
01:56:27.000 Yeah.
01:56:28.000 And so that's when they came back.
01:56:30.000 And now we have the bottles again.
01:56:31.000 Yeah.
01:56:32.000 Yep.
01:56:33.000 So we have to like put stickers on them saying, this is a reusable bottle.
01:56:35.000 Do not throw it away.
01:56:37.000 Notice by the very nice bottle cap on it, which seals it.
01:56:40.000 You can make it light and like a don't step on snack.
01:56:43.000 You can make a little don't throw in trash.
01:56:45.000 They'll still throw it away.
01:56:46.000 Yeah.
01:56:48.000 It's like, you know, you, you buy a jar of jam or whatever the grocery store, you don't have to throw in the garbage.
01:56:48.000 Yeah.
01:56:53.000 It's a nice glass jar with a lid.
01:56:54.000 My mom hasn't thrown one away since 1965.
01:56:56.000 There you go!
01:56:57.000 You've got a great collection, I imagine.
01:57:00.000 Well, you could use them!
01:57:01.000 You have to save all of them!
01:57:04.000 Alright, Rob Gratt says, Tim, I'm super familiar with eschatology and biblical prophecy.
01:57:08.000 I'd love to come and talk.
01:57:09.000 Tell me how to contact.
01:57:11.000 I'm in Pittsburgh.
01:57:12.000 I'll drive down tomorrow.
01:57:13.000 So, I mean, we're all booked up, so we definitely couldn't do it tomorrow.
01:57:16.000 We have people coming in to talk about divorce law.
01:57:18.000 So, tomorrow we're going to be discussing... It's not so much just to talk about Crowder.
01:57:22.000 But the Crowder issue has sparked this debate over divorce and responsibility, so we're going to be talking a lot about that.
01:57:28.000 That being said, I have no idea.
01:57:31.000 Like, trying to connect people through the show to our booking and everything, it's like, impossible.
01:57:37.000 That's why I'm always just like, send a message to Ian, because Ian seems to have some kind of ability to talk to people that I don't, and it works out.
01:57:44.000 So, Ian's your guy.
01:57:46.000 He's on Twitter, and if you tweet at him, it works.
01:57:49.000 So there you go.
01:57:51.000 Alright, what else do we have?
01:57:53.000 Garhent says cicadas are high in mercury and you fed them to your chickens.
01:57:57.000 It's possibly why they died early.
01:57:59.000 Incorrect!
01:58:01.000 Uh, the original flock actually are, I think, uh, I think they're mostly alive.
01:58:06.000 Roberto, Margaret, Sarah, Carol.
01:58:08.000 The only, the only chicken who died was, um, Katarina.
01:58:13.000 That was Roberto Jr.' 's mom.
01:58:14.000 And she had a tumor on one of her chicken ovaries or something.
01:58:19.000 And, uh, then she died.
01:58:20.000 I think, uh, Yeah, I'm pretty sure it may be, like, only two of the originals have died.
01:58:27.000 Roberto Jr., we know what was wrong with Roberto Jr.
01:58:30.000 It was the first Ags out of the batch, and he was, he had, he had issues that, like, when he first started crowing, he would pass out and collapse, and we were like, uh-oh.
01:58:38.000 So he had a heart attack.
01:58:38.000 He died.
01:58:39.000 He was, he was, you know, not a well rooster to begin with.
01:58:43.000 Yeah, did you know he had a heart attack?
01:58:45.000 I did.
01:58:45.000 I saw the goodbye message.
01:58:48.000 Yeah, Bro Jr.
01:58:49.000 died suddenly.
01:58:50.000 Yeah, very sad.
01:58:51.000 He had a billboard.
01:58:53.000 He did, he did.
01:58:54.000 His son is now in charge.
01:58:56.000 He's probably the only chicken in history to have a Times Square billboard, right?
01:58:59.000 Yeah, Margaret, who we called at the time the Captain because she was the biggest, but now she's small.
01:59:03.000 She's not really laying eggs anymore because she's like on year three, I think.
01:59:06.000 And she is.
01:59:08.000 She is spry.
01:59:10.000 She runs around.
01:59:11.000 She's the boss.
01:59:12.000 She takes the food from everybody.
01:59:13.000 So we gave all the cicadas to the chickens.
01:59:15.000 They seem to be fine.
01:59:16.000 And now we have too many.
01:59:17.000 Too many.
01:59:19.000 All right.
