Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - FOOD STAMPS OVER, Ending Nov 1, Food RIOTS May Spark Trump INSURRECTION ACT | Timcast IRL

00:02:41.000 My friends, what do you think would happen if come November 1st, snap benefits, food stamps, run dry and no one receives any money?

00:02:53.000 Speculation right now is that it would lead to food riots.

00:02:57.000 Videos are popping up of people claiming they will begin looting stores instantly.

00:03:03.000 One woman says they're not just going to loot stores.

00:03:05.000 They're going to wait outside for you with your groceries and they're going to steal your entire cart of groceries.

00:03:11.000 The Trump administration is warning right now that by November 1st, there will be no SNAP benefits.

00:03:18.000 And right now, if you type in the phrase, this is not a joke, is they into Google, the first recommended search term is, quote, is they cutting food stamps, end quote.

00:03:30.000 I am not joking.

00:03:31.000 I'm not trying to insult or be derisive.

00:03:33.000 This is a fact.

00:03:34.000 And there are concerns now that this could lead to food riots.

00:03:38.000 42 million people.

00:03:40.000 Some are speculating that from this, Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act and move in and take control of certain jurisdictions.

00:03:46.000 I don't know for sure, but let me just tell you: 42 million people don't get food stamps.

00:03:51.000 Big box stores are going to lose billions of dollars.

00:03:53.000 It is going to be an economic and political nuclear detonation.

00:03:59.000 So for those that say nothing ever happens, they may still be right because I cannot fathom a reality where the Trump administration could allow such a thing to happen.

00:04:09.000 I mean, the political blowback, the economic implosion, it's not just going to affect people who receive welfare.

00:04:15.000 We have created a whole sector of our economy predicated upon taking tax money from one group, sending it to another, so that they can then buy from these stores and the money loops back around.

00:04:26.000 What happens when 42 million people stop buying food all at once?

00:04:33.000 It's going to be very, very interesting.

00:04:35.000 Now, on top of that, we're hearing that air traffic controllers are about to miss a full paycheck, and there's already concern with the government shutdown where this goes.

00:04:45.000 So I don't know.

00:04:47.000 Maybe.

00:04:48.000 Maybe it gets that bad.

00:04:49.000 On top of all the weird economic stuff, some guy got arrested for putting a bounty out on Pam Bandi.

00:04:54.000 There's a guy who attacked a TPUSA person with a hockey stick.

00:04:59.000 And things are generally just still crazy.

00:05:00.000 But let me tell you, this government shutdown food stamp snap benefit thing.

00:05:06.000 Oh boy, this is going to be big.

00:05:08.000 We'll get to that and more.

00:05:10.000 Before we get started, my friends, we got some great sponsors for you.

00:05:12.000 We got Cove Pure.

00:05:15.000 Man, my friends, Cove Pure, do you trust the government to make the best choice for your health?

00:05:20.000 Some of you probably do.

00:05:21.000 I don't think you and I do.

00:05:23.000 Same government that shut down the country during COVID.

00:05:25.000 Nah.

00:05:26.000 When it comes to my family's health, I make my own decisions.

00:05:28.000 Over 70% of Americans are served by water systems that have fluoride added to the supply.

00:05:33.000 Yes, fluoride.

00:05:34.000 You know that stuff in toothpaste, which you spit out in the sink?

00:05:36.000 Tell us again why the government wants people drinking this stuff.

00:05:38.000 I'll also tell you a quick story.

00:05:40.000 I had a friend who, his sister had a baby.

00:05:43.000 This is a true story.

00:05:44.000 And she bought fluoride water.

00:05:46.000 Literally, it's water with added fluoride for her baby.

00:05:49.000 And I asked her why.

00:05:50.000 And she goes, it's for babies.

00:05:52.000 We looked up online and it said online, do not give your babies fluoride.

00:05:55.000 And I was like, don't look at me.

00:05:56.000 I'm not a doctor.

00:05:56.000 You trust your doctor.

00:05:57.000 But, you know, and then she questioned why the store was selling baby water with added fluoride in it.

00:06:03.000 Very strange, if you ask me.

00:06:05.000 Luckily, my friends, Cove Pure is certified to remove it to 99.9% of impurities using the same tech trusted by hospitals.

00:06:11.000 And that includes fluoride.

00:06:12.000 And that's really dang impressive, to be honest.

00:06:15.000 All the other garbage you'd find as well, PFAs, fertilizer runoff pharmaceuticals, you name it.

00:06:20.000 You can choose any temperature, hot or cold, and how much you want dispensed. 0.63

00:06:24.000 So you're not just guessing how much you drink.

00:06:26.000 Cove Pure helps us stay hydrated.

00:06:28.000 Check out covepure.com/slash Tim.

00:06:32.000 And for a limited time, you'll get a special discount of $200 off Cove Pure.

00:06:36.000 That's C-O-V-E-P-U-R-E dot com slash Tim, T-I-M.

00:06:42.000 And, you know, we got to get, we got to get Luke in here so he can go off on the fluoride stuff too, because that man knows what I'm talking about.

00:06:48.000 We also have a big announcement, ladies and gentlemen.

00:06:49.000 Go to boonieshq.com, go to the store, and holy smokes, a lot to talk about.

00:06:54.000 First, the boonies declaration, uncancelable, be-gay and don't be gay boards have just dropped $5.

00:07:02.000 They are now cheaper and will remain on the site.

00:07:04.000 20th Amendment is also going to remain because the demand is absolutely insane.

00:07:09.000 We're actually, we're going to be discontinuing all of the old graphics.

00:07:12.000 The prices have now dropped to $40, and when they're gone, they are gone forever.

00:07:17.000 So go to boonieshq.com, buy them now.

00:07:20.000 20th Amendment, we're going to keep in rotation because chicken owners love this board. 0.97

00:07:24.000 So I'm not kidding.

00:07:25.000 We're backlogged up like nearly 100 boards.

00:07:28.000 So I said, people really want it.

00:07:29.000 We're going to keep it.

00:07:30.000 But the big announcement is this.

00:07:31.000 Three new models have just launched.

00:07:33.000 It's called the Primal Collection.

00:07:35.000 There are 55 of these boards, no more.

00:07:39.000 Now, here's the best part.

00:07:40.000 You got Tim Poole, Jason Ellis, and Cody Mac Pro models, $55 each.

00:07:45.000 Out of the 55 that we made, five of them are metallic gold serialized.

00:07:52.000 You have around a 9% chance.

00:07:54.000 We are not choosing who gets them.

00:07:55.000 We just told the distributor to make 55 boards and make five of them golden.

00:07:59.000 And the distributor is going to send them out when they're ordered in the order they're made or however they do.

00:08:03.000 I don't know.

00:08:03.000 But they will be numbered one, two, three, four, or five out of five.

00:08:07.000 And once this run is done, they are gone forever.

00:08:11.000 We're going to try and roll out new graphics once a month in a similar fashion.

00:08:15.000 This is the primal collection.

00:08:17.000 We got a rooster, we got a wolf, and we got an eagle.

00:08:20.000 Of course, I had to pick the rooster.

00:08:21.000 And again, I think these are going to sell it instantly.

00:08:23.000 We already sold like nine, I think, and they're going to be gone right away.

00:08:27.000 We wanted to make gold collectors edition boards.

00:08:31.000 And so this is how we're doing it.

00:08:32.000 There's going to be an additional gold of each that are not for sale and will never be sold that we are going to have here mounted at the Boonies.

00:08:39.000 It will not have a serialization number, but an infinity symbol.

00:08:42.000 So it's not part of that one out of five.

00:08:44.000 It's a special production model.

00:08:45.000 But full disclosure for those, we want to make sure everything's transparent.

00:08:48.000 So go to boonieshq.com, go to the store, get your boards now because once they're gone, they're gone.

00:08:54.000 Like step on snack and find out.

00:08:56.000 $40 right now.

00:08:57.000 When we run out of these, they're gone for good.

00:09:00.000 We are, however, I just want to make sure this is clear.

00:09:02.000 For Step on Snack, going to have a similar graphic later in the future that we're planning.

00:09:06.000 So I just want to make sure we're being as transparent as we can with that.

00:09:08.000 Don't forget to also smash that like button.

00:09:10.000 Share the show with everyone you know joining us tonight, talk about this and so much more.

00:09:13.000 We've got the brick suit.

00:09:15.000 Great to be back.

00:09:16.000 I put a the in front of it.

00:09:17.000 That's all right.

00:09:18.000 You know, Mr. Wall, brick suit, it's all good.

00:09:20.000 I answer.

00:09:22.000 Who are you?

00:09:22.000 What do you do?

00:09:23.000 Well, I'm an accidental political activist kind of thing.

00:09:26.000 And I'm, you know, a huge supporter of President Trump, huge supporter of border integrity for our country, because if your country does not have borders, you don't have a country.

00:09:38.000 That's an evergreen issue.

00:09:39.000 And that's something I'm always going to be focusing on.

00:09:42.000 All right.

00:09:42.000 Thanks for joining us, Mr. Wall.

00:09:44.000 Shane's here.

00:09:45.000 What's up?

00:09:45.000 I am Shane Cashman, host of InvertWorld Live.

00:09:47.000 Tonight, I will be going live at 10 o'clock on Rumble and YouTube to talk about an open letter signed by 700 scientists and faith leaders saying that we are running out of time when it comes to super intelligent AI and that we need to figure out a way to stop it from crushing humanity.

00:10:02.000 It reminds me a lot of the Great Barrington Declaration that happened before the lockdowns.

00:10:06.000 We'll be talking about that.

00:10:07.000 Did you see that chart that showed AI content by year?

00:10:10.000 And how it's 99.9% human.

00:10:10.000 No.

00:10:13.000 And then it's like as time goes on, it gets to around like 2021 and it jumps up.

00:10:17.000 And now we're at 50-50.

00:10:18.000 Yeah, I know a lot of articles are more AI.

00:10:20.000 Oh, we're there.

00:10:21.000 So we'll see you.

00:10:21.000 We're there.

00:10:22.000 Tate's here.

00:10:23.000 What is going on, everyone?

00:10:24.000 Tate Brown here, holding it down.

00:10:26.000 I'm glad you're here because I am also a border enthusiast.

00:10:29.000 I'm a deportation enthusiast. 0.91

00:10:30.000 Ice love it all.

00:10:31.000 So we'll get into it.

00:10:33.000 Excellent.

00:10:34.000 My name is Seamus Coughlin.

00:10:35.000 I'm the creator of Freedom Tunes.

00:10:36.000 I've produced over 600 animated videos over the course of the last 11 years.

00:10:40.000 We've amassed a million subscribers and 290 million views, all with zero dollars spent on marketing, because we need to produce culture if we're going to win the culture war.

00:10:50.000 As it currently stands, the left owns entertainment media in this country, and we need to fight back.

00:10:56.000 We need to create culture and we need to compete with Hollywood.

00:10:59.000 And that's why I've launched Twisted Plots.

00:11:02.000 It's a TV-length animated show.

00:11:04.000 It's going to be created by myself and my team.

00:11:07.000 It's very highly entertaining.

00:11:08.000 We've already got the pilot finished, which you can see if you go to twistedplots.com and donate.

00:11:12.000 We launched three weeks ago.

00:11:14.000 We've raised over 50% of our gold to be able to produce our first season, but we've only got three weeks left to produce the other half of our budget to raise that other half.

00:11:22.000 So I need you guys to go over to twistedplots.com and support us if you want to help us create the future of entertainment and if you want that future to be right-wing.

00:11:31.000 And if you see as I see and would seek as I seek, then go to twistedplans.com and contribute to the project today.

00:11:39.000 Twistedplots.com.

00:11:40.000 Twisted plots.

00:11:41.000 Twisted plans.

00:11:41.000 What did I say, plans?

00:11:43.000 All right, let's talk about the news.

00:11:45.000 Ladies and gentlemen, this is one of the most stories in the history of our country.

00:11:50.000 This is one of the biggest stories of our generation.

00:11:52.000 Trump admin warns 42 million Americans could lose food stamps as shutdown drags on.

00:11:58.000 The USDA is warning that SNAP funds will run dry starting November 1st.

00:12:03.000 And my reaction?

00:12:05.000 I don't care.

00:12:10.000 Okay, anyway, you get the point.

00:12:11.000 Now, I know there are a lot of people that do rely on this.

00:12:13.000 So I'm only half kidding when I say I don't care.

00:12:16.000 I love it.

00:12:16.000 The Trump administration is warning millions of Americans could lose it on federal food benefits within days if Democrats do not accept Republicans' plan to end the government shutdown.

00:12:25.000 The USDA said it does not have the ability to independently reshuffle funds into the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps, according to a recent memo obtained by Fox News Digital.

00:12:35.000 Due to Congressional Democrats' refusal to pass a clean continuing resolution, approximately 42 million individuals will not receive their SNAP benefits come November 1st.

00:12:45.000 This jeopardizes all SNAP recipients in November, including those that have applied for benefits in the last half of October and furloughed federal employees who will not receive their combined October-November benefits.

00:12:56.000 And this is not a joke, my friends.

00:12:58.000 If you go to google.com and type in the words, is they, the first thing that pops up is quote, is they cutting food stamps.

00:13:07.000 Brick Wall, Mr. Brickman or whatever, showed me Bricksuit.

00:13:12.000 Mr. Bricksuit Man. 0.64

00:13:15.000 He showed me just before the show.

00:13:16.000 He's like, look, this is legit.

00:13:17.000 And I pulled it up and it really is.

00:13:19.000 And guys, as part of me wants it to happen because for too long, too many people in this country have just suckled off the teat of Uncle Sam.

00:13:31.000 However, I do understand there are real Americans that desperately rely on this for legitimate reasons.

00:13:35.000 So it's a rock in a hard place.

00:13:38.000 I can't imagine Trump or anyone allows this to happen because if 42 million people can't buy food all around the exact same time, you are going to see the margins of every major box store and grocery store drop significantly.

00:13:52.000 It may only be a couple percentage points, but enough that these stores have stocked their shelves to compensate for welfare purchasers.

00:14:03.000 If those people stop showing up, there will be a certain degree of waste and excess.

00:14:08.000 These supermarkets will lose money.

00:14:10.000 They will order less.

00:14:12.000 They will say, okay, we got to throw this out.

00:14:14.000 No matter what happens, there will be a surplus in the immediate.

00:14:16.000 So they'll order less.

00:14:17.000 The manufacturers, the distributors are going to start shipping less.

00:14:20.000 It is going to be a snapback tsunami in the economy across the board, everywhere.

00:14:28.000 I don't know how they let this happen.

00:14:29.000 And profit margins in the grocery sector are just phenomenally low.

00:14:32.000 People are 20%. 0.95

00:14:34.000 I mean, it's just like it's an incredibly low margin business because they can plan it that way because you basically know people need to eat.

00:14:41.000 They're going to buy this.

00:14:42.000 It's going to be cyclical patterns of like, you know, food, different food categories may happen at different times of the year, but you've got to keep buying food.

00:14:49.000 You've got to keep buying the staples.

00:14:51.000 And any interruption of that is going to just trickle back up and it's going to be hard to get that engine started again.

00:14:56.000 It's not like, it's not like you can just stop the food economy on a dime and then two weeks later ramp up the production again.

00:15:04.000 When egg prices were crazy high at the end of last year, people were stealing storage containers or giant shipping containers of eggs out of Pennsylvania.

00:15:13.000 Sorry, go ahead.

00:15:13.000 Oh, yeah.

00:15:14.000 No, I was just going to say, so I just think hunger and desperation is going to lead to violence rioting.

00:15:18.000 It's not going to be pretty.

00:15:19.000 Yeah.

00:15:19.000 I mean, you mentioned grocery stores have low profit margins.

00:15:22.000 It's true.

00:15:23.000 They're razor-thinnet.

00:15:24.000 Something like three cents of every dollar spent at the grocery store is actual profit for the company.

00:15:29.000 They're very, very low margins.

00:15:30.000 As you mentioned, they rely on the fact that people need to eat food.

00:15:33.000 This is part of why government-run grocery stores don't work because no bureaucrat is competent or concerned enough to account for 3% in waste.

00:15:40.000 But that 3% is what allows for the grocery store to be possible.

00:15:44.000 And so you're right.

00:15:45.000 The price dynamic has been distorted over the past several decades by food stamps, essentially.

00:15:50.000 And some people really do need them.

00:15:52.000 But the important thing to remember is that a price is not just an incentive.

00:15:56.000 It's information.

00:15:57.000 It tells you what you should stock your store with.

00:15:59.000 It tells you what people are reliably going to buy.

00:16:01.000 We don't know how much of what's currently purchased is only purchased because of EBT.

00:16:06.000 So it's really difficult for these stores to do any kind of economic calculation without that.

00:16:11.000 I want it to happen.

00:16:12.000 Sorry.

00:16:13.000 I mean.

00:16:14.000 Well, look, look, look, I understand.

00:16:16.000 Easy for me to say, I'm not going to go hungry.

00:16:19.000 My family's not going to go wanting.

00:16:21.000 And so that's where I'm torn on this because there are real people out there that get these benefits because they need them.

00:16:26.000 Real hardworking families that are struggling to make ends meet, maybe through no fault of their own.

00:16:30.000 And this was what the program was supposed to do.

00:16:32.000 The problem is the program itself has become a cancer on our economic system.

00:16:37.000 And there are too many people who intentionally manipulate the system for free money out of the good, hardworking Americans' pocket.

00:16:44.000 And so the issue is, in all things, cutting yourself off from the addiction is going to suck.

00:16:49.000 It's going to hurt.

00:16:50.000 And there's nothing you can do to stop it.

00:16:52.000 But continuing the improper medication or the addicting drug is only going to make it worse.

00:16:58.000 Yeah.

00:16:58.000 Well, yeah, beyond that, like, well, for one, 42 million, that means one in eight Americans is on SNAP benefits.

00:17:04.000 That's ridiculous.

00:17:05.000 Beyond that, like, this is the problem with welfare, broadly speaking, is that it's a feedback jammer because it's like the signs that a society sends to itself, like these normal signs that a society uses to correct itself, get jammed with welfare and you're not able to actually address these issues.

00:17:20.000 So, you know, I'm curious, Seamus, do you think that for a lot of people that rely on benefits, they could turn to their churches?

00:17:27.000 It's a difficult question.

00:17:28.000 I mean, I would hope so.

00:17:29.000 It depends on the church and it depends on the area.

00:17:31.000 I know that a number of food pantries have closed.

00:17:34.000 I know that there was one at least that closed in 2020 near where I lived at the time.

00:17:40.000 And the issue here with all of this is there are some number of people who really do need the assistance.

00:17:47.000 I mean, I don't think anyone is denying that.

00:17:48.000 There's some number of people who really do need food stamps.

00:17:51.000 They're not going to be able to survive.

00:17:53.000 They're not going to be able to pay for themselves.

00:17:54.000 But in part, it's because the infrastructure has been built up.

00:17:57.000 Like Tim asked the question, would churches be able to feed them?

00:18:00.000 Well, I don't know how prepared churches are relative to how prepared they need to be because this subsidy of food stamps has existed for so long.

00:18:08.000 And I'm just, I'm going to say it.

00:18:10.000 I've no idea that they could be ready.

00:18:12.000 Not they can't be ready.

00:18:14.000 Not for this number of people.

00:18:15.000 No, no, no.

00:18:16.000 But in terms of people who like really genuinely need it.

00:18:18.000 Again, I've known a number of people who were receiving welfare benefits through the course of my life.

00:18:23.000 Some people were people, I was like, this person 100% needs it.

00:18:26.000 They have a disability.

00:18:27.000 They're seriously poor.

00:18:28.000 There's no way they're going to be able to provide for themselves.

00:18:30.000 I've also known people who it's like, you didn't, you didn't need it.

00:18:33.000 Like this guy didn't need it.

00:18:35.000 So ultimately, I think it's really important for a government to be more discerning about who gets it.

00:18:40.000 Shutting the spigot off all at once, as everyone here has mentioned, can cause some serious problems.

00:18:45.000 But something does have to happen.

00:18:47.000 I feel bad for the single parent households that don't abuse it.

00:18:50.000 But obviously, this is a generational problem.

00:18:52.000 Yes, they shouldn't.

00:18:53.000 They abuse it.

00:18:53.000 They shouldn't exist.

00:18:55.000 And I'm not saying that single parents, you know, in some extreme fashion should be taken from their like their kids or whatever.

00:19:00.000 I'm saying our society should not have created a mechanism by which single parent households can be easily, well, I don't want to say attain.

00:19:09.000 That's not the right word, but like viable.

00:19:11.000 Where it's viable, it's going to break a marriage.

00:19:14.000 Exactly.

00:19:14.000 It needed to be that it was an impossibility.

00:19:18.000 No fault divorce has been a big problem. 0.96

00:19:19.000 The welfare system, it has made it so that there are circumstances where instead of people getting married and having functioning families where they have their kids and they're watching their kids, they say, you know what?

00:19:29.000 I'm unhappy.

00:19:30.000 So instead of making it work for what is right, I'm going to use the court system, break it apart, and then get on welfare benefits for my kids.

00:19:37.000 Talking about widows mostly, but like, I think the government has incentivized this situation with single parents. 1.00

00:19:42.000 So, like, they've married these people to the government and now they need this.

00:19:46.000 I must be unrung.

00:19:47.000 I'm sorry.

00:19:47.000 I got to read this Ready through Rumble Super Chat.

00:19:49.000 He said, cutting food stamps right before Christmas and Thanksgiving.

00:19:53.000 Yeah.

00:19:54.000 If this, this is why I'm like, dude, it's not going to happen.

00:19:57.000 They've got they're going to intervene somehow.

00:19:59.000 They've got a little bit of wiggle room in there.

00:20:01.000 I'm not sure if this is true in every state, but some states, like, they don't all roll out all the benefits on the first.

00:20:07.000 So it's like on the first, if your card ends in a one, your benefits load up.

00:20:12.000 On the second, if it ends in a two, it loads up.

00:20:14.000 So there, there could be a little bit of some wiggle room in there.

00:20:17.000 They don't have to do it all by the first, but if it goes any significant amount of time, it's just, it's not going to be good at all.

00:20:25.000 And we saw with the military paychecks that the private individuals are willing to foot the bill.

00:20:30.000 And I mean, if it's true, like a lot, I mean, it is true that like a lot of these grocery stores run razor-thin margins.

00:20:35.000 You have to think the execs at Kroger, the execs at Walmart are having conversations right now of like, all right, how much money do we need to chuck at this to keep it going for another two weeks?

00:20:43.000 Because, yeah, the government, like you were saying, has distributed the cost of dysfunction onto the productive class.

00:20:48.000 That's why we're having this conversation.

00:20:49.000 It's like, are these churches ready?

00:20:50.000 Or, you know, is the Salvation Army ready?

00:20:52.000 It's like, that's the way it used to be.

00:20:53.000 Yeah, but can I throw some out there?

00:20:55.000 Well, this is another really important part of this dynamic, which is the way the food stamp program works in this country is that you're able to go buy the kinds of foods that everyone else is able to buy.

00:21:05.000 I know RFK added some stipulations, which I think are good.

00:21:10.000 Yeah, I totally support it.

00:21:11.000 But when we talk about like, our church is going to be able to feed these people.

00:21:15.000 Now, in the best case scenario, you could say maybe what's able to happen is these churches are able to get inexpensive foods like rice and beans, et cetera, and feed people who are genuinely starving.

00:21:24.000 But the idea that the churches could ever be capable of supplying, you know, 10% of the country with all of the highly processed, more expensive foods that people have been consuming on food stamps, that's almost certainly impossible.

00:21:37.000 There's so many people, Wright through Rumble said, Tim will cut your food stamps right before Christmas and thinks he's the good guy.

00:21:42.000 LOL.

00:21:43.000 Yep, I am.

00:21:43.000 Wow.

00:21:44.000 And what I find in these liberals is they're short-term thinkers.

00:21:48.000 They don't plan ahead.

00:21:49.000 They don't plan for winter.

00:21:50.000 And these systems that have been built by these people have been gutting and destroying this country.

00:21:56.000 And now we're at the rock in the hard place position where maybe, maybe we need to do it now to avoid a long fall later.

00:22:02.000 I don't like the idea that people get this ripped out from underneath them, a rug pull at the last minute.

00:22:06.000 But the idea that we have so many government systems that have been exploited and abused for decades from people who know they're exploiting and abusing the system, it's unsustainable.

00:22:17.000 Every single day, the socialists say we deserve more of what you work for.

00:22:23.000 At some point, you can't take from someone who has nothing left.

00:22:27.000 At a certain point, you take too much and people stop working.

00:22:30.000 This system's unsustainable.

00:22:31.000 Zorin Mandani is in New York saying, and I love this.

00:22:35.000 We're going to make the buses free and we're going to make the buses faster.

00:22:40.000 And I got a question for you guys.

00:22:43.000 Why are the buses slow in New York?

00:22:45.000 Does anybody know?

00:22:46.000 Oh, yeah, because they're weapons of mass destruction and there's too many cars and people.

00:22:50.000 So, okay, so hold on.

00:22:52.000 He said the buses, we have the slowest buses in the country.

00:22:55.000 So that kind of implies it's not an issue of traffic.

00:22:58.000 Because traffic for traffic, he's saying the buses are slow.

00:23:01.000 Why aren't they going faster?

00:23:04.000 I haven't seen it.

00:23:05.000 But could it be some kind of perhaps there's a limit on the bus of some sort?

00:23:09.000 Because of science, you mean?

00:23:10.000 Could there be a limit on the speed of the bus relative to all vehicles in the city?

00:23:16.000 Anyone out there?

00:23:18.000 If you're driving in New York City, you know the buses don't go slow.

00:23:20.000 I mean, you have to watch out for the buses.

00:23:21.000 They're crazy.

00:23:23.000 It's the insane things these people say that mean nothing and make no sense. 0.97

00:23:27.000 Buses can go 60 miles an hour.

00:23:29.000 The reason why they don't in New York is because the speed limit is 25.

00:23:33.000 So he's like, we're going to make the buses faster.

00:23:34.000 And everyone cheers.

00:23:35.000 And he may as well say, Red Bullet gives you wings.

00:23:40.000 What I think he means is he's going to try to limit cars more in the city to free up space.

00:23:45.000 I think what we're seeing here is, you know, he did an interview and he goes, yes, I'm going to tax people more.

00:23:50.000 He's like, because we deserve these programs.

00:23:52.000 It will never stop.

00:23:53.000 It will never stop.

00:23:54.000 And when you do this, what happens is less and less people will work to put into a system and they will seek to extract from it until eventually the people who produce the system say, I'm done and I'm leaving.

00:24:06.000 Oh, yeah.

00:24:06.000 That's been happening.

00:24:07.000 Anybody who can get out is going to want to get out.

00:24:10.000 And I'm sure there are people who've already left because they're looking at it like, if it doesn't happen this time, it's going to happen at some time.

00:24:17.000 So there's always, you know, there's always a prime window for you to get out and maximize your gain.

00:24:22.000 Everybody's trying to sell at once.

00:24:24.000 That's going to be bad.

00:24:25.000 About 1 million people left New York City in the 70s when they were trying to climb out of bankruptcy and taxing everyone into oblivion.

00:24:31.000 It'll happen again.

00:24:32.000 Let's jump to this tweet.

00:24:33.000 We got this from American Papa Bear.

00:24:36.000 Here's some food for thought.

00:24:37.000 When EBT recipients no longer have free government money coming in as of November 1st, rather than them stealing from the store directly, someone thinks they're going to be waiting in the parking lot to steal from you as you go to your car.

00:24:49.000 All I can say is try that in a small town.

00:24:51.000 Stay strapped and stay vigilant out there, patriots.

00:24:53.000 Listen to this.

00:24:54.000 This woman makes actually a pretty good point. 0.99

00:24:57.000 And people are going to start.

00:24:58.000 I'm telling you, this is going to be a thing.

00:25:00.000 People are going to start, instead of stealing groceries from the stores, they're going to start watching people go to their cars and they're going to take all of their groceries.

00:25:11.000 And you know what the store is going to do?

00:25:14.000 Not our problem.

00:25:16.000 Not our business.

00:25:17.000 And they're correct.

00:25:18.000 It's outside the store.

00:25:20.000 They don't do it in the store.

00:25:20.000 Not if it's on their private.

00:25:22.000 It's not our property.

00:25:24.000 If it's that hard.

00:25:27.000 Call the authorities.

00:25:29.000 Make a report. 1.00

00:25:31.000 They're going to leave your ass for dead. 1.00

00:25:33.000 And people are really going to. 1.00

00:25:35.000 I'm just going to.

00:25:35.000 What?

00:25:36.000 Am I supposed to call the supermarket for help when someone's robbing me?

00:25:36.000 Why?

00:25:39.000 Well, all right.

00:25:39.000 Wait, wait.

00:25:40.000 So a man's pointing a gun.

00:25:42.000 Shop and save.

00:25:42.000 Help.

00:25:43.000 What?

00:25:43.000 Oh, man.

00:25:44.000 Let me play more stuff.

00:25:49.000 I'm telling you.

00:25:52.000 So I actually agree with her.

00:25:54.000 And then we have this from Just Loki says, food stamps run out, riots, insurrection act.

00:25:58.000 It can't be that easy.

00:26:00.000 And they got this tweet that says, we are out of band-aids and duct tape.

00:26:03.000 Democrats, stop this madness.

00:26:06.000 And then he has this post where he says, looming food riots, a communist insurgency in New York City, and patriotic WASP industrialists supporting the federal imposition of law and order.

00:26:15.000 I can autism spiral about that for a while.

00:26:17.000 This must be what 1905 felt like.

00:26:20.000 I'm just going to say this.

00:26:21.000 If 42 million people can't buy food all at the same time, it's not that our concern is everyone's insane.

00:26:30.000 It's that a tiny percentage of this.

00:26:33.000 I mean, it's like one, let's say 1% of this cohort.

00:26:38.000 One, 420,000 people start smashing up grocery stores and stealing stuff, robbing people in the parking lots.

00:26:45.000 It's going to get absolutely insane.

00:26:46.000 So I said it before.

00:26:48.000 I'll say it again.

00:26:49.000 I cannot imagine a scenario where the Trump admin or even the Democrats allow this to happen.

00:26:54.000 But here's the thing: if Trump is truly playing a game of chicken, saying Democrats can vote yes on our budget whenever they want, I don't see Trump backing down.

00:27:04.000 Will Democrats?

00:27:06.000 Well, it's bad news for the elderly because they depended on being Walmart greeters for all these years, but they're about to replace them with like Navy SELS.

00:27:13.000 It's going to be like Mad Max and the robots, but now it's bringing out my, you know, Oreo cereal.

00:27:18.000 I'm just getting jumped every time.

00:27:19.000 It's like, yo, can we get a greeter over here?

00:27:21.000 It's going to be a Navy SEAL strapped next to a robot dog with a rifle on top.

00:27:27.000 And he's going to say, greetings.

00:27:28.000 Yeah.

00:27:28.000 He's going to check your receipt and then just sprint out.

00:27:30.000 Dog's going to follow you.

00:27:31.000 You know what you see?

00:27:32.000 You see that viral video from Burlington where they stop you at the front door and take a picture of your body?

00:27:36.000 Wow.

00:27:37.000 You haven't seen this video?

00:27:38.000 No.

00:27:38.000 Oh, bro.

00:27:39.000 I got to pull this up for you guys.

00:27:40.000 Let me see if I can find out where this one is.

00:27:42.000 I asked the crew to pull it up for me.

00:27:45.000 I wouldn't be surprised if violence does start popping off places.

00:27:49.000 You might see some stores, some companies decide it's not worth it to open up.

00:27:54.000 And then you got a whole nother thing.

00:27:55.000 I was like, why are you going to open up your doors for business if you're going to expose your employees and actually your entire store to those type of losses?

00:28:05.000 They might just decide to keep the doors closed.

00:28:07.000 Well, yeah, this happens.

00:28:08.000 Grocery stores go, there's a lot of crime in this area.

00:28:10.000 Stuff gets stolen off, and we're not going to build a grocery store here.

00:28:12.000 We're not going to open a new location here.

00:28:14.000 And then lefties go, these are food deserts.

00:28:16.000 It's like, all right, well, if you don't want food deserts, you need law and order.

00:28:20.000 Right.

00:28:20.000 David Dorne was asked to defend his friend's place from riots.

00:28:24.000 And look what happened to David Dorne.

00:28:25.000 I mean, this is, I worry about that being the next step if it goes like this.

00:28:29.000 And that was televisions, right?

00:28:31.000 That was electronics.

00:28:32.000 That's like a pawn shop.

00:28:33.000 Yeah.

00:28:34.000 So, I mean, that was not Staples.

00:28:36.000 This is like, this is like, this is going to be a whole nother class of things.

00:28:41.000 You know, this is going to be a whole look.

00:28:43.000 You know, I would say this 40 million cohort of Americans, they're not preppers.

00:28:49.000 Yeah.

00:28:50.000 They don't have tubs of dehydrated food.

00:28:53.000 Right.

00:28:53.000 They're not ready for this.

00:28:55.000 You know, they're not.

00:28:56.000 And the private sector have an option.

00:28:58.000 Like, we have a great example in South Africa.

00:28:58.000 And it's not hyperbole.

00:29:00.000 Like, I was there recently, and you go to the grocery store, and the private sector does address these things.

00:29:04.000 There is like, you know, stopgaps in place.

00:29:07.000 But what it is, is there's dudes like locked and loaded standing outside of the grocery store to like maintain law and order.

00:29:12.000 And it's like, do we really want that in the United States?

00:29:15.000 I mean, that's in South Africa.

00:29:16.000 Like, do we really have to deal with that here?

00:29:18.000 And it's like, well, it could very well be.

00:29:19.000 I just, I do feel terrible for the people that are living paycheck to paycheck, not abusing the system.

00:29:24.000 And like Seamus was saying, I wish there was a way to discern to get rid of these people on the program who are abusing it and have been abusing it for years.

00:29:31.000 Yeah, and just at every level.

00:29:33.000 It's just the government has distributed the cost of dysfunction onto the productive class, and they're not drilling down on the issue.

00:29:33.000 That's what I said earlier.

00:29:40.000 I mean, like Tim mentioned it, like, you know, fertility is being decoupled from productivity.

00:29:45.000 Like, that's going to accelerate every bad sort of dysgenic drift that we're seeing.

00:29:49.000 Take a look at this video.

00:29:51.000 Let them take a picture before you can answer my legislation. 1.00

00:29:57.000 If you walk out in a different coat, I know, I think you're being tracked the whole way when you walk through these stores.

00:30:06.000 You guys have seen it.

00:30:07.000 You've seen what the Amazon stores are doing, where they've got 70 cameras in a tiny little 400 square foot space filming you in every possible direction.

00:30:15.000 And then one day they show up at your house, you get arrested.

00:30:18.000 Well, it's organizations.

00:30:19.000 We have all the technological infrastructure that we were able to build up from having a relatively productive, high-trust society at one point.

00:30:25.000 And even as society's become lower and lower trust, the snowball effect of that technological development has continued.

00:30:31.000 But now we have a low-trust society.

00:30:33.000 So all these very high-tech tools that are great when you're in a society where people don't need to watch each other all the time because they're trying to rob and screw each other over are going to be able to be, they exist and they're going to be put to use again, spying on everyone all the time.

00:30:46.000 It will be deployed.

00:30:47.000 It already are.

00:30:47.000 Yeah.

00:30:48.000 Yeah.

00:30:49.000 To a worse degree.

00:30:50.000 Just a little, like, are they going to rename the Patriot Act the Grocery Act?

00:30:54.000 Because it's the little things that compound that just you don't notice when it's rolled out, but it just makes your life worse when it compounds.

00:30:59.000 Like, you go to a Walgreens and you got to wait for some employee to get deodorant.

00:31:03.000 Like I was at Walmart recently with the, and that you get, I carry my, got my basket. 0.95

00:31:06.000 I'm like, damn, there's a security tag on the basket.

00:31:08.000 I'm like, this is like probably a two, three dollar basket. 0.98

00:31:10.000 Yeah.

00:31:10.000 Like, what is going on?

00:31:11.000 And it's like, the country just like sucks now, but and it all just compounds, and then your life just gets worse and worse.

00:31:17.000 You don't even notice it getting worse.

00:31:19.000 So let me ask you guys, just, you know, how many of you want the benefits to just run dry instantly on November 1st?

00:31:25.000 I don't.

00:31:26.000 You don't want them?

00:31:26.000 I want them to be stripped down from people who abuse it, but I do feel bad for the families.

00:31:30.000 I know there's a lot of people.

00:31:31.000 But there's no way to do that way.

00:31:32.000 So considering there's no way to figure out who's abusing and who isn't, you're still okay with keeping it?

00:31:40.000 It's a hard one, dude.

00:31:41.000 I think of all these people who live paycheck to paycheck and people are suffering really bad.

00:31:45.000 You think keep it, Bricksuit?

00:31:49.000 Not having it run out cold turkey is just not a good situation.

00:31:53.000 So if the government can find some way to fund it, creative financing, you know, it's going to be cheaper to keep it funded than to initiate the cure if violence breaks out.

00:32:06.000 Which is why I'm pretty much on the same page, which is why we have to remember this is the Democrats' fault for keeping the government shut down by not making a deal.

00:32:12.000 So you guys think we have to keep it?

00:32:15.000 Well, I think the USDA has some leverage now where they can actually start stripping off some of the excess.

00:32:20.000 But just here's the question.

00:32:20.000 Sure, sure.

00:32:22.000 Your option is keep it for all, $42 million as normal or shut it off.

00:32:26.000 What do you think?

00:32:27.000 No, because I trust that.

00:32:30.000 Not keep permanently.

00:32:31.000 Yeah, we should keep it.

00:32:31.000 I didn't say that.

00:32:34.000 The option is right now.

00:32:35.000 Yes.

00:32:36.000 It's one or the other.

00:32:37.000 If they reopen government and fund it, it's going to stay exactly as it is with all of the abuse.

00:32:41.000 And if they shut it down, everybody's cut off.

00:32:43.000 I'm for cutoff.

00:32:44.000 Yeah, well, my thing is.

00:32:45.000 This is why I'll never be in politics because I will never be in politics because I have no problem saying your government has created a heroin addiction for your country.

00:32:54.000 It is destroying you.

00:32:56.000 And I know there are good people that will be negatively impacted by this, but we cannot continue to inject ourselves with an addictive drug that is burning us to the ground.

00:33:04.000 Are the politicians still right now?

00:33:06.000 In that case, I'm in.

00:33:07.000 No, I mean, oh, they're not being paid?

00:33:09.000 Well, can we rob the politicians? 0.96

00:33:10.000 I'm kidding.

00:33:12.000 In that case, I'm more like in favor of methadone.

00:33:14.000 Like, I'm not in favor of keeping addiction, but we can't go cold turkey and take the whole country just can't get off of these benefits in one fell swoop.

00:33:22.000 It's impossible.

00:33:23.000 Exactly.

00:33:24.000 Like, you need to do some kind of analysis firstly to make sure that there isn't a head of household who has a bunch of illegals living with them.

00:33:24.000 You can completely agree.

00:33:30.000 So the welfare is basically going illegal immigrants. 0.85

00:33:32.000 Like stuff like that has to be done immediately.

00:33:33.000 No, but brother, it's so much worse than this.

00:33:36.000 There are people who have babies intentionally to expand their benefits.

00:33:39.000 But you're going to start crashing and they sell these benefits.

00:33:42.000 You're going to start crashing the food producers, and then those jobs are going to disappear.

00:33:45.000 And then that's going to be more strain on the system.

00:33:47.000 So it'll just be a cascading effect.

00:33:49.000 You know what I mean?

00:33:50.000 I don't think the economy is resilient enough to withstand a complete and total withdrawal of all the sites.

00:33:58.000 I do not believe there is a reality where what you were asking for, which is the correct answer, is possible.

00:34:03.000 The methadone situation, where we say we are going to slowly start pulling back these benefits.

00:34:09.000 No matter what we do, there will always be people who are deserving of it getting taken away from and people who are manipulating it getting when they don't need it.

00:34:15.000 Correct.

00:34:17.000 In my lifetime, with everything I've seen, I don't see a political reality where you can stop these programs except in a way like this.

00:34:25.000 Because no politician, no Republican would stand up and say, I'll take away your benefits from you.

00:34:31.000 Not even Republicans can say.

00:34:33.000 In New York City, Curtis Sleewa, the Republican, said, Don't deport the illegal aliens.

00:34:38.000 That's what happens when you have these prolonged addictive systems.

00:34:43.000 Because Sleewa knows, if I say we got to deport illegal immigrants, I won't get a single vote. 1.00

00:34:48.000 That's what New York is right now.

00:34:50.000 So we keep playing this game of we'll figure it out down the road, we'll figure it out.

00:34:54.000 We never will.

00:34:55.000 Where are we with Democrats?

00:34:56.000 They're asking now for what, their fourth amnesty in 30 years.

00:34:59.000 And we had Brian Shapiro on the show and he says, I think it was Brian, Amnesty.

00:35:04.000 He says, we need to find a way for those that have been here for 20 years and are working to become citizens.

00:35:08.000 I said, again, for the fourth time.

00:35:11.000 But hold on.

00:35:11.000 What's the difference?

00:35:12.000 There's a guy who's been here for 20 years.

00:35:14.000 He works a normal job.

00:35:15.000 He's a good person.

00:35:16.000 He doesn't get benefits.

00:35:18.000 Why should we cut him off?

00:35:19.000 Now, there's a moral argument of he's not a citizen, so there's a line for us.

00:35:23.000 My argument is the same thing is true for this welfare system.

00:35:27.000 It is being exploited by a lot of really bad people, and the system itself is a cancer on our country.

00:35:33.000 I have no problem.

00:35:34.000 I'm actually very much in favor of EBT benefits, SNAP benefits, and welfare for most people.

00:35:39.000 But the way I've described it over and over again, imagine it like one day you got a cut on your arm.

00:35:46.000 So you cleaned it off and put a band-aid on it and then forgot about it.

00:35:49.000 A week later, it's starting to smell bad.

00:35:51.000 So what do you do?

00:35:52.000 You slap another band-aid right on top.

00:35:54.000 Starts to smell bad.

00:35:55.000 What do you do?

00:35:55.000 Another band-aid right on top.

00:35:57.000 And now someone says, yes, yes, but if you peel the bandaid off, it's going to pull all the necrotic flesh and it's injuring the arm.

00:36:02.000 And you're like, but if you keep doing this, you will die.

00:36:06.000 At some point, you've got to say, I'm sorry, but the system is broken.

00:36:10.000 Now, look, again, I understand.

00:36:13.000 I'm not in a position where I'm going to be one of these people who's cut off.

00:36:17.000 But I'll tell you the truth.

00:36:18.000 No politicians ever going to tell you the truth.

00:36:20.000 They're never going to admit to you that this is a fast track to the collapse of your society.

00:36:24.000 Your children will inherit a pile of ashes.

00:36:26.000 No one will ever say it.

00:36:28.000 They're going to tell you, don't worry, you're special, and I'll make sure you get your free stuff every effing time.

00:36:35.000 I think it's impossible to undo by design, too.

00:36:37.000 They wanted everyone on this program to make their political enemies look bad when we were like, we should end this.

00:36:43.000 When I talked earlier this year about how I was in favor of cutting sugar and soda from all this stuff, I mean, they were rioting in the comments.

00:36:50.000 I mean, it's unbelievable.

00:36:52.000 I think if you want to be a Maha, you know, and support good health and give, you know, people who are in poverty food and drink that are going to not kill you.

00:36:59.000 That was the whole thing.

00:37:00.000 That was the whole thing.

00:37:01.000 Like, people deserve choice to buy soda.

00:37:03.000 Like, no, no, we're giving you money.

00:37:04.000 Not with our money.

00:37:05.000 It's poison water.

00:37:06.000 We're giving you money.

00:37:07.000 You can have healthy food.

00:37:08.000 You can have tap water from your bathroom.

00:37:11.000 The best, you know what the best water in the world is?

00:37:13.000 Second place.

00:37:14.000 No, no, no, no.

00:37:15.000 Second place.

00:37:18.000 You are wrong.

00:37:19.000 The second best water in the world is drinking the water straight from the bathroom sink.

00:37:23.000 And the first best water in the world is right from the hose outside.

00:37:26.000 Sure.

00:37:27.000 Everybody knows.

00:37:27.000 I grew up on the hose.

00:37:28.000 Especially in the summer where it's nice and warm.

00:37:29.000 We'll clip that.

00:37:30.000 But that very metallic taste is.

00:37:32.000 That demonstrates how much special interest is behind Snap because it's like, they paid off a bunch of guys that just show for soda on soda gate.

00:37:39.000 With their full government name on there.

00:37:41.000 It's just, it's totally insane.

00:37:42.000 But like, yeah, with the binary you presented earlier, Tim, like, I agree.

00:37:46.000 Like, it would be nice to go cold turkey, but I'm just so worried about getting killed.

00:37:49.000 I don't put it past Americans like kill me over a loaf of bread. 1.00

00:37:52.000 And then we're going to get a situation where we're sending Instacart shoppers in like Rainbow Six Siege in there and like scoop up the get it back to me.

00:37:59.000 Like I, it just sounds horrifying, but no, I totally agree.

00:38:02.000 But yeah, like I was saying earlier, too, it's just ultimately SNA is just a bullet or it's a band-aid on a bullet hole wound.

00:38:08.000 It's like to address this rot, yes, if they're going to withhold, if they're going to withhold SNAP going forward, this needs to be in combination with a lot of different attacks on these different vectors that have completely rotted out our society.

00:38:21.000 And so if we're going to do it, we got to do it right.

00:38:23.000 Otherwise, yeah, we're going to be getting killed over ho-hos or whatever. 1.00

00:38:26.000 I mean, I'm going to say it again.

00:38:28.000 Look, no politicians ever tell the truth because, you know, even with Donald Trump running for offices, no one's going to touch your Medicaid and Medicare because he knows the older generation is a huge voting block and he needs their vote.

00:38:42.000 And it's a numbers game.

00:38:43.000 This is the problem with, you know, I was talking about this earlier.

00:38:46.000 I did a video for my Tim Pool, the Tim Pool show channel.

00:38:50.000 Subscribe if you haven't at youtube.com slash Tim Pool and rumble.com slash Tim Poole.

00:38:55.000 And I explained why women shouldn't be in politics. 1.00

00:38:58.000 And that is not to say individual women or even most women.

00:39:01.000 It's only there's generalities and in demographics and averages.

00:39:06.000 So I'm not literally, I'm kind of trying to be antagonistic when I say this.

00:39:11.000 I actually have no problem with women in politics because while many people disparage women and say Repeal the 19th, I don't agree with that. 0.97

00:39:17.000 And when women weren't voting, we had a civil war and we had conflict and crisis and women are voting. 1.00

00:39:21.000 We have conflict and crisis.

00:39:22.000 But the issue is that I brought up what most people don't understand is that it's not an issue of the individual ever.

00:39:29.000 It's an issue of large-scale demographics.

00:39:33.000 So, when you have the largest voting block being 70 plus, and they're heavily dependent on Medicare and Medicaid, if you say, for the betterment of this country and the younger generation, we have to stop this scheme that funnels money from young people to old people, you will lose every election ever.

00:39:49.000 Well, if the only thing keeping a demographic alive is like coerced, transfer, transfer of funds from the productive class, that demographic is gone and everything else is just an accounting fiction.

00:39:49.000 Yeah.

00:40:00.000 Are you the only Gen Zer in here right now? 1.00

00:40:01.000 I'm a Zoomer.

00:40:02.000 That's right.

00:40:02.000 I mean, even Surge is just a young.

00:40:03.000 Oh, no, wait.

00:40:04.000 Yeah, you're a young millennial, right?

00:40:05.000 Yeah, yeah, I'm young millennial.

00:40:06.000 Yeah, that's right.

00:40:06.000 I'm 30.

00:40:07.000 You're just barely qualifying.

00:40:08.000 Barely.

00:40:09.000 I'm a barely.

00:40:10.000 Actually, 91st century Zoomer.

00:40:11.000 95 million.

00:40:12.000 The boomer's trying to hide. 0.55

00:40:14.000 97.

00:40:15.000 So get this.

00:40:16.000 What year were you born?

00:40:17.000 Here's what's going to happen.

00:40:18.000 Oh, one.

00:40:18.000 Oh, wow.

00:40:19.000 There's only 40 million Gen Alpha.

00:40:21.000 The amount of wealth they're going to extract, I don't mean wealth as in your wealthy.

00:40:25.000 I'm saying your access to resources.

00:40:26.000 The amount of wealth they will have to extract from Gen Alpha to pay for elderly boomers and Gen X is going to buckle the system. 0.98

00:40:35.000 Well, this is something I really got to hit on because it's not necessarily a specific policy issue.

00:40:35.000 People don't realize.

00:40:40.000 It gets back to our entire understanding of how societies should run.

00:40:43.000 We have moved so far away from any understanding of the principle of subsidiarity in this country and all across the Western world.

00:40:52.000 We need to ensure that things are handled by the most.

00:40:55.000 I'm not seeing that over this.

00:40:56.000 Yeah, that was my theme music for my great epic school.

00:40:59.000 It was on a Vox video or something.

00:41:01.000 So things should be handled by the most local possible authority.

00:41:05.000 Charity, for example, should be handled.

00:41:07.000 How do you figure out who's an illegal or who's a person who's really struggling or who's a person who's just sucking resources out of the system?

00:41:16.000 Well, if this is handled by communities, if this is a local phenomenon, much easier to sort it out.

00:41:21.000 Similarly, how do we care for people in their older age?

00:41:23.000 Well, once again, if the retirement plan for the average person was what it was historically, which is to say you had children or you had nieces, nephews, someone in your family had children, or you joined a convent, but you secured your own retirement for yourself in some way, our birth rates probably would not have decreased at the level that they've decreased at.

00:41:43.000 Multi-generational households.

00:41:44.000 Or a multi-generational household.

00:41:46.000 Exactly, where your kids are taking care of you and your kids' kids.

00:41:49.000 So the issue is we moved away from that and we said, well, you know, some number of old people don't have family to care for them.

00:41:56.000 So now what we need is an entire system that defers the costs to everyone.

00:42:00.000 But the issue with doing that is now your average individual doesn't have the same incentives to ensure they have a multi-generational household where their descendants will be taking care of them.

00:42:09.000 So the birth rate declines and you end up in the position we're in now where a huge subsection of the population that makes life as it currently exists possible because they were such a large part of the workforce are about to retire and they're about to take a bunch of benefits out of the system that the younger generation will literally not be able to pay for.

00:42:26.000 It just won't be possible.

00:42:27.000 You're going to have an awful collapse.

00:42:28.000 I think part of that has to deal with the shift of the population away from small towns into big cities.

00:42:36.000 And, you know, there's like if you ever drive across Kansas or you drive across Nebraska, there's something I've noticed.

00:42:42.000 I do a lot of driving.

00:42:44.000 You know, you're basically going the speed limit and then you slow down because there's a town and you come to a small town and there's a main street and there's a park and there's a grain elevator by the railroad tracks.

00:42:56.000 And then five minutes later, you're out of the town and then you drive another 15 minutes and that pattern repeats itself because those towns are in a, you know, an optimal size for people to be farming the area around it.

00:43:10.000 You've got the community, you've got a bank, you've got your barber, you've got your doctor, and then it duplicates down the road.

00:43:17.000 But in your town, you can't hide.

00:43:20.000 You can't be the degenerate. 0.84

00:43:22.000 That's right.

00:43:22.000 Because social pressure keeps you in line.

00:43:25.000 And that's where you're going to be at.

00:43:27.000 And once people go to the big city, they can disappear into the woodwork and that disappears.

00:43:32.000 Let's jump to the story from the New York Times.

00:43:32.000 Totally.

00:43:34.000 Amazon plans to replace more than half a million jobs with robots.

00:43:39.000 I'm excited for this because the end is an eye, my friends.

00:43:42.000 Have you seen the video of the shipyards where all of the containers are being moved around by robots?

00:43:47.000 Yes, I have seen that.

00:43:48.000 Yeah.

00:43:48.000 And that's what Amazon factories already are.

00:43:50.000 The factories in China, where there's no lights at all in them, they're just because the robots don't need light.

00:43:56.000 They have like radar and lidar and stuff.

00:43:58.000 So there's no actual lights.

00:43:59.000 You walk in, it's pitch black, and the robots don't care.

00:44:02.000 They're doing their thing.

00:44:03.000 It's happening now.

00:44:04.000 This story is crazy enough, but you combine these things, especially with the government screw-ups, collapse, the loss of benefits, SNAP benefits, whatever it's going to be.

00:44:15.000 Look, I'll just put it this way.

00:44:16.000 You guys, we talked about the LSAT numbers.

00:44:19.000 You saw the LSAT numbers?

00:44:21.000 Going up.

00:44:22.000 32,000, whereas like last year it was 18,000.

00:44:24.000 Right.

00:44:25.000 People, people staying in school because they perceive the job market as being disaster.

00:44:30.000 Particularly law, because it's a fake job made up by people to argue with people.

00:44:35.000 Whereas, but it's true.

00:44:37.000 I'm not trying to disparage lawyers a little bit, but when you go to school for like an end for engineering, it's not an issue of staying in school.

00:44:44.000 You're like, when I get out, I'm going to be an engineer in some capacity, some kind of an engineer.

00:44:48.000 When you go to law, you're basically saying nothing is working in the economy, but the one thing that's that I can hope for is that I'll be able to argue with somebody and sue them or listen.

00:45:01.000 This is not a career recommendation or anything, but just as I see it, law, medicine, and finance, those are the things that a lay person can't really understand.

00:45:09.000 And it's very intimidating for them to navigate.

00:45:11.000 So I can understand why someone might see that as safe career paths, but you can't.

00:45:15.000 I don't know if you can make it.

00:45:17.000 I mean, you'd be safe for going into the trades.

00:45:19.000 You'd be safer just quitting school and becoming a plumber.

00:45:22.000 I don't know.

00:45:23.000 I mean, honestly, you'd be at least in two years, you could be actually doing stuff.

00:45:27.000 And those type of jobs are going to be the last ones taken away by.

00:45:32.000 What if that's only 10 years from now?

00:45:33.000 We don't.

00:45:34.000 No, I don't even think it's that.

00:45:35.000 Look, if they allow the welfare benefits to end on the first, we are talking about a nuclear bomb on the economy and in politics.

00:45:44.000 It cannot happen.

00:45:45.000 If it happens, okay, I'm saying this.

00:45:48.000 When they warn, maybe, you know, hey, you may not get your benefits.

00:45:53.000 That's a big difference.

00:45:55.000 Because if, you know, come the first, Trump goes, look, we found funds, we polled it, the government's not opening, but we're fine.

00:46:00.000 Then it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, it was a threat.

00:46:02.000 But if actually 42 million people do not get money and they cannot buy food, I don't know how we, that is going to change the face of this nation.

00:46:11.000 There are two things that drive electoral systems. 0.77

00:46:15.000 Usually it's the economy, but only when things are safe.

00:46:19.000 Security is next, but there is another indicator of revolution and civil war, and that is when food is hard to come by.

00:46:27.000 And with the Arab Spring, one of the key indicators of massive revolution across the Arabic world in North Africa, particularly, was that food prices had become too high.

00:46:36.000 It kicked off with, I believe, what was it, Mohamed Wazizi?

00:46:40.000 Was his name?

00:46:41.000 He was a fruit cart salesman in Tunisia.

00:46:43.000 That's right.

00:46:44.000 And the police came and said, you can't sell fruit.

00:46:45.000 And he goes, it's the only thing I can do to make money.

00:46:48.000 They shut him down.

00:46:49.000 So he went in front of like City Hall and immolated himself.

00:46:52.000 And then everybody snapped because they were feeling the same pressures and the same heat.

00:46:57.000 What's going to happen to this country when you have terrorism, a weak economy, high prices, and 42 million people who can't afford food?

00:47:04.000 Well, everything will turn out fine.

00:47:05.000 Trump can then invoke the Insurrection Act and take over anything he wants.

00:47:09.000 Well, and you mentioned earlier the rural areas is rural areas actually have a far rural households specifically have a far higher participation in SNAP benefits and these sorts of things.

00:47:18.000 You have two issues now compounding is A, you're going to have a migration of people from rural areas into the urban areas looking because that's where the institutions are going to be that distribute food.

00:47:18.000 So it'll compound.

00:47:27.000 And then B, the farms that do exist in the rural areas, their labor force gets cut out from under them because a lot of those people that are on those snap benefits are working on the farms and these sorts of things.

00:47:35.000 So then there's going to be a shortage of labor on the farms. 0.98

00:47:38.000 And then now the farms are going to have less productivity.

00:47:40.000 So everything is just going to compound.

00:47:42.000 The rural areas are going to completely rot out.

00:47:43.000 The area is going to be pulled, the bombs are going to be pulled out from under.

00:47:46.000 It already has in a lot of ways.

00:47:47.000 And then, yeah, they're going to flood into the cities.

00:47:48.000 And then the cities will be out of food because these farms are going to have labor shortages. 0.99

00:47:53.000 The one problem with that, though, is that farms are going to disappear soon because they're all becoming data centers.

00:47:58.000 That too.

00:47:59.000 And then generated food, though.

00:48:00.000 And then they're going to take all the water so the data centers can gargle them up. 1.00

00:48:05.000 Yes.

00:48:06.000 People are already complaining about higher water bills and electricity bills because they're funding the data centers in there.

00:48:11.000 We got our electric.

00:48:12.000 So one of the, so at the old studio, our electricity bill has been largely just nothing because we left.

00:48:19.000 And then we got the bill for it.

00:48:20.000 I think it was like a couple months ago.

00:48:23.000 And when I saw the bill, I got really angry because I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, someone's pulling some BS.

00:48:27.000 Somebody plugged in a Bitcoin mining rig at our property.

00:48:30.000 Oh, yeah.

00:48:31.000 No, it's the price of electricity is skyrocketing because of the high demand from data centers, but also probably Bitcoin mining as well.

00:48:36.000 Just in general.

00:48:37.000 I put my heat on like last week and then the electric company just sent me a loan application.

00:48:42.000 You're going to need it.

00:48:43.000 We weren't smart enough to move towards fourth generation nuclear.

00:48:47.000 And I mean, we just don't have enough.

00:48:48.000 Don't have enough power.

00:48:49.000 In New York State, they're shutting down nuclear reactors.

00:48:52.000 One thing we haven't talked about, too, though, is where you were saying like if benefits end in November.

00:48:58.000 You mean in four days?

00:48:59.000 In four days, right?

00:49:01.000 There will be some people who will reprioritize what finances they do have.

00:49:05.000 Food will still be a priority over rent because it takes you longer to get evicted than it does for you to starve.

00:49:14.000 So if people need to have a fixed amount of money and they've got to choose between rent and food, they're still going to choose food rather.

00:49:21.000 Well, we got rent, but we've got nothing to eat.

00:49:23.000 So, you know, the landlords and the mortgage industry is going to have some perturbations there.

00:49:31.000 Or cannibalism.

00:49:33.000 Oh, yeah.

00:49:34.000 We do Haitians.

00:49:36.000 I'm telling you guys right now, I've said it before, I'll say it again.

00:49:38.000 This is a fact.

00:49:39.000 If social order really did break down, I mean, like the power turned off, no one knew what to do.

00:49:46.000 You'd have like three days before people in New York were drinking each other's blood.

00:49:51.000 You think I'm exaggerating?

00:49:52.000 Dude, you have like three minutes.

00:49:53.000 On Manhattan, on Manhattan, I believe you have about 2 million people.

00:49:57.000 If the water stopped flowing, you'd see a mass out migration flooding into outer areas as people become desperate, look for food.

00:50:04.000 We are not dealing with a nation of what I think, I think, what was it during the American Revolution was like 2.5 million.

00:50:11.000 Is that how many people it was?

00:50:14.000 You search that for me and get the number.

00:50:15.000 I believe that the original 13 college had only a few million people.

00:50:19.000 In the event, there was 2.6.

00:50:22.000 If you had an economic collapse back then, what would you do?

00:50:24.000 You'd wander into the wilderness, find a creek, and drink from it.

00:50:27.000 That's right, you'd build a little mud hut.

00:50:28.000 That's impossible right now.

00:50:30.000 You've got about nine, 8.8 million, I think the number is in the New York metro.

00:50:35.000 Manhattan Island alone is around 2 million.

00:50:38.000 If the power and the water is gone, food spoils within days.

00:50:42.000 Seriously, bro, my strawberries, I buy them.

00:50:44.000 I come home.

00:50:45.000 I go to the supermarket.

00:50:46.000 I look at the strawberries.

00:50:47.000 They look great.

00:50:48.000 As soon as I get home, I pull it out.

00:50:49.000 All mold.

00:50:50.000 Just instantly, like switch was flicked.

00:50:53.000 Food's going to spoil.

00:50:54.000 There's going to be some canned goods.

00:50:56.000 What are people going to do?

00:50:57.000 Well, how do you deal with 8.8 million people spreading out into the outer areas trying to find food?

00:51:02.000 Plumbing systems not working.

00:51:04.000 Nowhere to put their poop.

00:51:06.000 Nowhere to find food.

00:51:07.000 They're going to be ransacking houses.

00:51:08.000 They're going to be stealing what they can.

00:51:09.000 It is going to get apocalyptic very, very quickly.

00:51:13.000 I don't know what anyone thinks is going to happen when you have 8.8 million people in one hyper-condensed area.

00:51:19.000 Many are going to stay and they're going to be like, nah, nah, nothing ever bad happens.

00:51:23.000 The government will take care of me.

00:51:25.000 And then what happens when they don't have water for two days and all the water and all the drinks are gone from all the bodegas?

00:51:30.000 Because let's be real.

00:51:31.000 They're not going to get restocked.

00:51:32.000 And I'm talking about the event of total social breakdown.

00:51:35.000 They will start drinking each other's blood.

00:51:37.000 But the buses will go faster.

00:51:38.000 Indeed.

00:51:40.000 They'll speed up as they flee the city with one rope bus driver. 1.00

00:51:44.000 I'm like, we got to get out of here.

00:51:46.000 Do you think AOC will stay behind to invoke order upon her consumers?

00:51:51.000 AOC will be in a jet to Mount Weather, where she will be treated like a queen underground for the next 30 years, hiding from the people she betrayed. 1.00

00:51:59.000 She is a bartender, so for drinking blood, a bloody Mary. 1.00

00:52:02.000 Wow.

00:52:05.000 There you go.

00:52:06.000 So people in New York don't know where water comes from.

00:52:09.000 No.

00:52:11.000 This is crazy.

00:52:12.000 Go back several hundred years and people in New York generally had an idea of where their water was coming from.

00:52:16.000 Now they don't.

00:52:17.000 They just made huge new pipes for where their water comes from from New York City.

00:52:20.000 It goes all the way up to the upstairs.

00:52:22.000 There's this video from Vice like 15 years ago where a guy, there's a stream in New York that they put a building over.

00:52:31.000 The stream is still there, but it's covered and there's a wall.

00:52:34.000 And if you jump over the wall, there's a crack between the building and the wall that goes under the building where there's a natural creek still there.

00:52:42.000 And then he like put cameras on.

00:52:43.000 It's a Super Old video, but he was like, this is where a lot of the water would flow through New York.

00:52:47.000 Now, no one has any idea.

00:52:49.000 They've covered it all up and they're pumping the water in.

00:52:52.000 What happens if the water stops flowing?

00:52:53.000 Chicago is the same way.

00:52:54.000 You drink Lake Michigan water, sure, you're going to get real sick.

00:52:57.000 And people don't even know how to treat water anymore either.

00:53:00.000 Like people, we have developed ourselves out of our ability to survive without these tools that we've made.

00:53:05.000 Oh, absolutely.

00:53:07.000 Yeah, you're forced to rely on the material world, whereas we used to have nature.

00:53:11.000 Nature's dead.

00:53:12.000 Yeah, like I grew up in Memphis and people there, every city says this, but they're like, you know, we were voted the best tap water in America.

00:53:18.000 And then you go, why is that?

00:53:20.000 And they say, well, it comes from aquifers.

00:53:21.000 And I'm like, yeah, that's where water.

00:53:26.000 We're just so removed from the processes, processes that, yeah.

00:53:31.000 So I don't know, you know, when I've talked to people about all these jobs being lost, the response I get is, yeah, but they'll replace it with robots.

00:53:40.000 And I'm like, guys, they're not going to replace your customers with robots.

00:53:43.000 So when we talk about population collapse, there's going to be a Taco Bell.

00:53:48.000 So some guy owns a chain of Taco Bells, a franchisee owner.

00:53:52.000 He goes, we can't afford, we're losing sales, so we're going to save money by replacing all of our staff with robots.

00:53:59.000 He does.

00:54:00.000 Then he goes to the government.

00:54:03.000 I have this automated Taco Bell store, but we're collapsing.

00:54:06.000 We're going out of business.

00:54:08.000 The economy is terrible.

00:54:09.000 So the government says, we're going to create a bunch of robots to go and buy products from you.

00:54:12.000 And then it's just a bunch of robots buying Taco Bell, throwing it in the garbage.

00:54:15.000 Well, here's the optimistic.

00:54:18.000 Aliens come to Earth.

00:54:19.000 There's no people anywhere.

00:54:21.000 It's just robots buying food and throwing it away.

00:54:23.000 Well, they're buying food from each other.

00:54:24.000 Any complex economic system that you've got established, which we have, can only handle change at a certain rate.

00:54:32.000 Yeah.

00:54:32.000 And so the problem we're coming at is the shocks to the economy are exceeding the rate at which the change can be absorbed into the system and adaptations can be made.

00:54:42.000 So we can get to a different state of the economy, but we can't do it in a telescope compact timeframe.

00:54:50.000 And that's really what we're up against.

00:54:53.000 That's the difficulty.

00:54:54.000 Well, and the thing is, like our economy has been hit with multiple new inventions over the past several decades that would and should take any society decades to adjust to by themselves, you know, going from radio to television to the internet.

00:55:11.000 And we're not even talking about, you know, the advancements that have been made in medicine or food production or anything like that.

00:55:17.000 So yeah, we've been we've been taking on a lot of change very, very quickly.

00:55:21.000 There's a very real question of whether society can sustain it.

00:55:24.000 If I were to be a very out-to-lunch optimist, here's what I would say.

00:55:30.000 I go, well, here's the good news.

00:55:32.000 We're talking about the population aging up.

00:55:35.000 Well, guess what?

00:55:36.000 The robots are going to take care of them since there won't be enough young people to do it. 1.00

00:55:41.000 We've got the technological infrastructure for that.

00:55:44.000 Here's the problem.

00:55:46.000 Ultimately, that technology is going to be controlled by people.

00:55:50.000 People don't always act in the best interest of other people, especially when they're in a position to really leverage their power to get what they want from them.

00:56:01.000 And even if they do, even if we end up in like a miracle scenario where everything goes perfectly and the people who run these AI companies use the technology for noble reasons to help others, well, when those others end up with abundance and don't have to work, they're all going to end up falling apart.

00:56:19.000 Yeah.

00:56:20.000 Well, yeah, you get this thing now where like you're talking about with like these new technologies hitting the market.

00:56:25.000 It's every single time, like, you know, the computer, the personal computer, and everyone's like, great.

00:56:29.000 So that means, you know, labor retracts a little bit.

00:56:31.000 So my wages will go up.

00:56:33.000 Yeah, about that.

00:56:34.000 We just brought in 20 million immigrants in the last five.

00:56:37.000 You're like, oh, oh, so every time.

00:56:39.000 Exactly.

00:56:39.000 Yeah.

00:56:39.000 So I want to jump to this next story.

00:56:41.000 Before we do, I didn't think I'd have to do this, but I, but I should.

00:56:44.000 It looks like we're about to sell out of all the boards.

00:56:46.000 So I shouted out the new Boonies boards. 0.50

00:56:50.000 We've got the Primal Collection, Jason Ellis, Cody Mac, and Tim Pool boards.

00:56:54.000 And there's 55 of each.

00:56:57.000 Five of them are golden and serialized, numbered one, two, three, four, and five.

00:57:02.000 My team just hit me up and said that we're basically on the verge of selling out.

00:57:06.000 There's only a handful left.

00:57:07.000 So I guess, guys, I'm letting you know because maybe you might want to, they're going to sell out instantly.

00:57:12.000 So I don't even know why I'm telling you, I guess you're buying them.

00:57:14.000 But I'm just letting you guys know.

00:57:16.000 And the rest of the boards are also starting to sell at increased numbers because once they're gone, they're gone forever.

00:57:20.000 We're retiring the older models.

00:57:21.000 So shout out boonieshq.com.

00:57:24.000 Go to the store and grab them while you can.

00:57:26.000 I'm really excited.

00:57:27.000 I really appreciate you guys.

00:57:28.000 We didn't realize it was going to sell this quickly and this would be so successful.

00:57:32.000 Yeah, if you thought a food shortage caused desperation, wait to see a boonie shortage.

00:57:36.000 Man, that's when the knives come out.

00:57:37.000 That could be the barter economy, though.

00:57:38.000 Because I mean, imagine what the gold serialized board will trade for in terms of zeros for, you know, it's going to be like 10 years from now and there's going to be like a guy and he's just, for some reason, he's the king of like a three-state region.

00:57:51.000 They're like, why?

00:57:52.000 And he goes, because I have the greatest wealth.

00:57:53.000 And he points to a Tim Pool serialized number one.

00:57:56.000 And they're like, whoa, you have.

00:57:58.000 Anyway, here's a story from the LAist.

00:58:00.000 Newsom says Trump is rigging the election with federal poll monitors.

00:58:06.000 Okay.

00:58:07.000 He's cheating by not letting us cheat.

00:58:09.000 Exactly.

00:58:10.000 My question is, what about a DOJ monitor watching what you do is rigging the election?

00:58:18.000 They're like, Trump is going to allow voters to rig the election.

00:58:22.000 What Newsom is basically saying is the simple act of observing what he does will change the outcome of the election in some way.

00:58:31.000 That is rigging the election.

00:58:32.000 So what's happening is the DOJ is sending to California and to New Jersey election monitors.

00:58:38.000 It is a standard thing that DOJ has done for decades.

00:58:40.000 And Democrats are not freaking out about it.

00:58:43.000 Because guess what?

00:58:44.000 If Trump is monitoring his elections, how much you want to bet Republicans win?

00:58:48.000 Yep.

00:58:49.000 Well, this is one of those hilarious things. 0.94

00:58:50.000 This is one of those issues where you just have to point to the left and say, I know y'all love to pretend that everyone in Europe does things the way that you want them done and they all agree with you and they think us conservatives are super silly.

00:59:03.000 But like if you tell a European that there's an entire political faction in the United States that thinks it's wrong to have people show IDs to vote, they look at you like your heads on sideways.

00:59:13.000 Like, what are you talking about?

00:59:14.000 Like, what?

00:59:15.000 There's people who think you shouldn't have to show an ID to vote.

00:59:17.000 No one else in the world gets upset about the prospect of someone having to show identification in order to vote.

00:59:22.000 Yeah, well, they did this with the Dominion voting machines where they're like, these are impossible to rig.

00:59:27.000 These are completely bulletproof.

00:59:28.000 And then a guy that was vaguely associated with the GOP bought it like two weeks ago and they're like, who's going to rig them?

00:59:33.000 He's going to like years of gaslighting.

00:59:38.000 So.

00:59:38.000 Yeah.

00:59:39.000 Newsome's the same guy who said all those fires were because of climate change and lo and behold, it was arson.

00:59:45.000 Correct.

00:59:46.000 Words mean nothing to this guy.

00:59:48.000 Exactly.

00:59:48.000 So it's Schrödinger's poll monitor.

00:59:53.000 The election exists in a vacuum and it's perfect until you look at it.

00:59:58.000 And then Trump.

00:59:58.000 Until you look at it and then you are rigging it by the very act of observing it.

01:00:03.000 You combine this.

01:00:04.000 So what I was saying earlier this morning with this story is that Trump wants federal law enforcement in these jurisdictions because ultimately it's going to come out to the election.

01:00:11.000 They're not going to be able to dump 500 ballots at 2 in the morning if there's a CBP guy or a DHS guy standing there.

01:00:17.000 I think this is going to be Trump's play in the midterms.

01:00:19.000 Democrats know this.

01:00:21.000 That's why he's saying they're rigging it.

01:00:23.000 Newsom knows that they can't have their ballot harvester show up with 300 ballots and dump them all at once if even a single person is at these locations.

01:00:33.000 So the theory now is cut off SNAP benefits.

01:00:36.000 You get food riots.

01:00:38.000 Trump can invoke the Insurrection Act and dispatch federal law enforcement.

01:00:42.000 And he can say it's going to be, he's going to go on a temporary basis until we can stabilize following these riots.

01:00:48.000 And he's going to say for a 12-month term, which is perfectly just before the election.

01:00:53.000 Yeah.

01:00:54.000 Owning the left by just observing their.

01:00:57.000 He says, we will be invoking the Trump.

01:00:59.000 Trump can come out.

01:00:59.000 I'm not saying he will, but he can come out and say, I know there are concerns about the overreach of executive authority.

01:01:05.000 That is why I am issuing this order, a one-year term, just to get a hold on the crime and the riots we've been seeing, of which then the order will expire and National Guard will return to their normal duties.

01:01:20.000 This is showing a good faith of the people that I'm not going to keep this permanent, but it gives Trump that perfect amount of time just before the election, because this will be during early elections or during early voting where they will have National Guard in and around these places to protect them.

01:01:34.000 You never trust when the government says we have a deadline on this.

01:01:37.000 Yeah.

01:01:37.000 You know, they're like, because they never really have a deadline.

01:01:39.000 Wouldn't it be hilarious if with federal poll monitoring, like every single county in California just went deep red?

01:01:46.000 Just the reddest red state imaginable.

01:01:49.000 Put ice outside, too.

01:01:51.000 The voter registration data in California doesn't support that.

01:01:54.000 There's four and a half million more registered Democrats.

01:01:58.000 No, I'm kidding.

01:01:59.000 Yeah, I'm not sure.

01:02:00.000 I mean, it would shift.

01:02:01.000 Yeah, I mean, there are actually people out there who just think there's so much cheating in California that if you eliminate it all, somehow the state would become Republican.

01:02:09.000 No, that's not.

01:02:10.000 I don't think so.

01:02:10.000 They also give amnesty to a lot of illegal.

01:02:12.000 Places in it would become redder, and you would definitely have things at the local level that would flip, but the state level, not yet.

01:02:19.000 Not yet, for sure.

01:02:19.000 No, for sure.

01:02:21.000 It's like in New York, the city ruins it for the rest of the state, and a lot of that shade is red. 1.00

01:02:24.000 Well, the city is obviously crazy.

01:02:27.000 It's most blue states.

01:02:28.000 I love that city.

01:02:28.000 It's most blue states.

01:02:29.000 Like in California, and then New York City is a great example, too.

01:02:32.000 It's like these, the voter base that elected Giuliani, the voter base that elected all these Republican governors in California, some of them moved out, but a lot of them didn't go anywhere.

01:02:42.000 It's that they imported a new voting class to like basically outvote them. 0.97

01:02:46.000 And it was done through amnesty, but it was done through the generic immigration system as is.

01:02:50.000 Like New York, all these people voting for Vimdani, they followed the rules.

01:02:54.000 They can vote legally.

01:02:54.000 They came.

01:02:56.000 They didn't pull any gimmicks.

01:02:59.000 It's just they're allowed here.

01:03:01.000 And now they go vote you.

01:03:01.000 Now they vote.

01:03:03.000 The city got a Giuliani because the city was so bad.

01:03:06.000 But even if the city got worse than it was pre-Giuliani, they will never vote for a Republican because Memdani reflects the new class of people that have moved into Queens that have moved into the Bronx.

01:03:16.000 Until they get a full dose of it and it doesn't turn out.

01:03:20.000 There's like where they're going to say, oh, we just need better socialism.

01:03:20.000 I don't think.

01:03:24.000 But the difference between, but the difference between in principle, I would hope so, but I think the difference between Memdani and previous Democrats is a lot of people are voting for Mandani out of ethnic allegiance that we didn't see with Democrats in the past that we didn't see with your Lindsays and your Cokes and that sort of thing.

01:03:39.000 And we haven't dealt with that in the United States before.

01:03:41.000 We haven't dealt with ethnic voting blocks.

01:03:43.000 We see it with Elon Omar.

01:03:44.000 Like, do you think people in Minneapolis just really like Elon Omer?

01:03:47.000 No, it's like, she represents me.

01:03:48.000 She represents me as a Somali.

01:03:50.000 So it's like, yeah, if you voted out Elon Omer, they would just vote in another Elon Omar, which is a different name, because it's like that you imported a new group of people here that you just can't compete with that.

01:03:59.000 You can't compete with that voting block.

01:04:01.000 Yeah.

01:04:01.000 I will say there is a decent size of people who are either Republican, independent, or old school liberal like Trump from the city who hate all this stuff.

01:04:11.000 And a lot of them work in the unions, which and they disagree with the unions, but like when you're working in the hotels and different types of unions in the city, the problem with that is the union is kind of like a mob.

01:04:21.000 Yeah.

01:04:21.000 And they and they really try to get you a vote to vote a certain way, which is also insane.

01:04:25.000 Well, you have the upper end where you get the buyer's remorse.

01:04:25.000 Yeah.

01:04:27.000 Like Bill Ackman is like trying to rally this huge support for Cuomo to go against Mamdani.

01:04:32.000 And I'm like, dude, this is your fault.

01:04:34.000 You funded Democrats for decades.

01:04:36.000 It's like, great, you're on the team now, but where were you 20, 30 years ago?

01:04:39.000 Yep. 0.57

01:04:39.000 When we were saying, hey, you're going to get us killed. 0.57

01:04:41.000 The Republican influencer pivot to Cuomo is disgusting. 1.00

01:04:44.000 And all those people should be shunned. 1.00

01:04:46.000 That guy is a psychopath. 1.00

01:04:48.000 Cuomo should drop out and get my. 0.97

01:04:49.000 Actually, there is numbers of support that Sli-Wa would actually perform better against Mamdani anyway because he's actually like, he actually taps into something that New Yorkers are feeling.

01:04:56.000 And he's a liberal.

01:04:57.000 But there is that.

01:04:58.000 Yeah, I mean, Sli-Wa's not even great anyway, but it's like, yeah, Cuomo.

01:05:02.000 He is the lesser evil, though.

01:05:03.000 He's a lesser evil. 0.93

01:05:04.000 And Cuomo's just such a nasty guy that it's like, you really have to bind your conscience and plug your nose. 0.97

01:05:08.000 Sli-Wa's taking bullets for that city. 0.97

01:05:10.000 Right.

01:05:10.000 I mean, it's crazy stuff.

01:05:11.000 His story is pretty wild.

01:05:12.000 He also says a lot of things that I think he's pandering to his more Sli-Wa has some bad positions, but there's no question that he's dedicated his life to the city.

01:05:12.000 Yeah.

01:05:20.000 And I think most native New Yorkers that didn't just show up yesterday, like identify with Sliwa in a lot of ways.

01:05:26.000 Oh, for sure.

01:05:26.000 For sure.

01:05:27.000 In terms of also getting shot at.

01:05:30.000 Yeah.

01:05:31.000 In terms of interesting fashion choices.

01:05:35.000 Alan, maybe if Cuomo throws a beret on, we'll see what happens.

01:05:40.000 I think there's a very strong probability that come the midterms, there's going to be federal law enforcement or National Guard outside of polling stations.

01:05:47.000 The Trump circle is way too paranoid about stolen elections and ballot harvesting, especially with the Netch DeSos's, you know, what was it, 1,000 meals or whatever? 0.97

01:05:54.000 1,000 meals or 1,000 meals.

01:05:56.000 That they're going to say, look, we don't got to do anything other than just have one guy outside a polling station watching a ballot box, making sure nobody's going and dumping ballots.

01:06:03.000 I think it should also be a holiday.

01:06:06.000 Democrats will win, but I agree. 0.93

01:06:08.000 I mean, if we have ICE and a security out there, actually, no, I think you're right.

01:06:12.000 I think actually Republicans will benefit more so.

01:06:14.000 I used to think they work.

01:06:15.000 Right.

01:06:16.000 Exactly.

01:06:17.000 Republicans have to do it.

01:06:17.000 Democrats don't.

01:06:18.000 So get rid of mail-in voting and make it a holiday, and you're probably going to get more Republicans to vote.

01:06:18.000 Yeah.

01:06:22.000 God, do it in person.

01:06:23.000 Got to happen on just one day.

01:06:25.000 Yeah, and not just an ID, but full-body cavity search.

01:06:30.000 Okay, China.

01:06:32.000 What was that?

01:06:32.000 What did you say?

01:06:33.000 Not just voter ID, but full-body cavity search.

01:06:38.000 Yeah, not for me.

01:06:41.000 Liberals would, liberals would win every time.

01:06:43.000 Well, yeah, that'll show up.

01:06:44.000 San Francisco would have 100% voting.

01:06:47.000 Newsome will be right there.

01:06:48.000 Yeah.

01:06:49.000 It's like, sir, you can't vote twice.

01:06:51.000 Sure, we can.

01:06:53.000 Sure, we have oil provided.

01:06:54.000 You don't need Diddy shows up.

01:06:57.000 He's like, I'll help out.

01:06:59.000 I'm ready to do a voter drive.

01:07:01.000 Voter drive at my house, guys.

01:07:04.000 Yeah, but San Francisco polling will mean something different.

01:07:10.000 Look at us.

01:07:11.000 We're funny guys, huh?

01:07:12.000 That's the October surprise.

01:07:12.000 Yeah.

01:07:14.000 It's going to get crazy.

01:07:17.000 But again, you know, with all of that being said, it would be the biggest happening of happenings if they allow Snap to expire.

01:07:25.000 True.

01:07:25.000 Like in terms of chaos in the streets, government, you know, in just bedlam.

01:07:32.000 I hate to be like the Debbie Downer, but I genuinely think that, look, Trump obviously could call in a few favors from the private sector, and the private sector has a huge incentive to keep Snap going.

01:07:42.000 I really do think that we'll see some sort of coordination if this really like comes down to the wire where they will step in, they will throw some money on the table just to get it to, you know, get it past the finish line, you know, beat that deadline.

01:07:54.000 Because, I mean, it would just, like you were saying with the numbers, I mean, Kroger would be cooked without EBT, Snap, et cetera, et cetera.

01:08:01.000 And I don't think they're going to go down like that.

01:08:03.000 They'll just chuck a couple hundred million out.

01:08:06.000 You know, I don't think they have any problems doing that.

01:08:08.000 It's going to get crazy.

01:08:09.000 Look, if the response to Trump is that in any way to try and secure the elections, he's rigging it, there's no answer.

01:08:14.000 Either we let them rig it or they claim Trump rigs it.

01:08:17.000 Well, yeah, that was always going to be the game.

01:08:19.000 So there's no elections?

01:08:20.000 It's just no matter what happens, nobody believes it now.

01:08:22.000 Exactly.

01:08:22.000 And we thought we were going to be here with 24.

01:08:24.000 Yeah, but and then Trump won, and they were like, well, doesn't that mirror every other controversial position out here now, though?

01:08:31.000 I mean, like any topic, there's just people who make up their minds and no amount of logic or evidence will dissuade them from whatever position they adopt.

01:08:41.000 So we shouldn't be surprised that people are going to look at elections the same way they look at like, did we land people on the moon?

01:08:48.000 You know, people have made up their minds about that.

01:08:50.000 And when, you know, when we get back to the moon and we fly over those landing sites and we say, look, here they are and there are the footprints.

01:08:57.000 People are going to say, well, you just set that up in the last two years.

01:09:01.000 So like people staked out their positions and they're not going to retreat from them.

01:09:04.000 I want to give Shane Cashman the floor here.

01:09:06.000 No, no, no.

01:09:07.000 I don't want to hurt Brixuit's feelings about there being no moon.

01:09:09.000 We do have two moons now, actually.

01:09:11.000 We do.

01:09:12.000 Two fake moons, two fake moons.

01:09:14.000 But shout out to Scott Adams.

01:09:16.000 My favorite quote is: two movies, one screen.

01:09:18.000 That's what you're talking about.

01:09:19.000 I mean, we're in alternate reality with this.

01:09:22.000 Scary.

01:09:23.000 Yeah, the fact that every single issue now just instantly becomes a wedge issue.

01:09:27.000 It's so bizarre.

01:09:27.000 Yeah.

01:09:28.000 Like, I mean, the obvious one was right after Kirk, and it was like, hey, maybe we should stop using language that gets people killed.

01:09:35.000 And then the left was like, well, I don't know.

01:09:37.000 That seems, and it's just like, really, is there no.

01:09:40.000 Yeah.

01:09:41.000 Well, when it gets really interesting and really spicy is when you're dealing with issues where there isn't actually like an operating principle or shouldn't be an operating principle.

01:09:50.000 So, for example, when it comes to abortion or homosexuality, transgenderism, these are issues that you're going to have an opinion about the entire issue based on your underlying moral philosophy.

01:10:01.000 But when it comes to, was that cop justified in shooting that guy, that's not a question of your base philosophy.

01:10:09.000 That's like we have to look and see if there's evidence for that.

01:10:12.000 But just immediately, everyone has their mind made up.

01:10:15.000 That's the kind of stuff where it's really freaky because you go like, all right, this guy could go to jail now because some number of people, including people on the jury, like will not accept any evidence that he's innocent because this has become an axiomatic position for them that like every time a cop shoots anyone, the cop was wrong.

01:10:33.000 Seamus, what you just said has nuance and that is racist.

01:10:36.000 That's true.

01:10:36.000 Which is also racist.

01:10:37.000 You're right.

01:10:38.000 Until body cams came out.

01:10:39.000 Boy, that boomerang on that whole.

01:10:42.000 Dude, I know.

01:10:43.000 And it's hilarious.

01:10:44.000 Nobody thought that we'd be having like vindication of law enforcement on the regular body cam.

01:10:50.000 I a little bit did, but yes, you're totally right because they destroyed their movement with that.

01:10:54.000 They were like, yes, if we just put body cams on them, we'd see that police officers just want to go up to innocent, unarmed people and shoot them for no reason.

01:11:02.000 And then that obviously turned out to not be true.

01:11:04.000 And now people are going like, you know, it was actually a racist policy to start putting cameras on police.

01:11:09.000 I'm not kidding.

01:11:09.000 I've heard people make this argument.

01:11:11.000 Let's jump to the story from Windows Central.

01:11:14.000 Sam Altman was right.

01:11:15.000 The dead internet theory could kill the web within three years.

01:11:18.000 LLMs can suffer from brain rot. 0.98

01:11:21.000 There's a lot to break down in this, but I believe that while we talk about the various political apocalypses that are upon us, it's funny because that word's not supposed to be plural, I suppose.

01:11:30.000 But we're facing tumult.

01:11:32.000 Economics, the welfare benefits story.

01:11:35.000 But there's another story that I saw where AI content is now one-for-one with human-produced content.

01:11:41.000 That means most people don't realize they're talking to bots.

01:11:45.000 They are on the internet interacting with fake entities that are making them feel and think certain ways, and it's terrifying.

01:11:52.000 Or sometimes people you talk to in real life.

01:11:54.000 That's true.

01:11:55.000 But people in real life are now motivated by false information provided by a bot that has been zombified or is hallucinating.

01:12:02.000 So what's happening is they are still training ChatGPT and these big programs, right?

01:12:07.000 Grok, whatever.

01:12:09.000 But these programs are absorbing regurgitated hallucination information from ChatGPT.

01:12:16.000 It's going to create a toilet swirl of insanity. 0.99

01:12:19.000 And then we are going to burn ourselves up.

01:12:22.000 There's not enough babies.

01:12:24.000 AI is taking over and AI is learning from itself.

01:12:27.000 This is just, it's just a, we're slamming into a brick wall.

01:12:31.000 I mean, what happens when people try to create like the Dune internet, like the version of the internet where there's just no artificial intelligence allowed and they try everything possible to build a wall so that they can't build a wall so that AI can't get in.

01:12:44.000 And then they do.

01:12:45.000 They will.

01:12:47.000 But I think people will try.

01:12:48.000 It sounds a great idea.

01:12:49.000 I don't know if it's going to be possible.

01:12:50.000 So they'll get in.

01:12:52.000 All of these factors.

01:12:53.000 And then on top, you have, we were talking about it earlier, our electric bills are skyrocketing because data centers are sucking up all electricity, sucking up all the water.

01:13:02.000 Guys, I'm just going to say, it sounds like in 10 to 15 years, humanity is largely just like wearing scrap leathers, living in caves, and human civilization society is a bunch of robots just doing stuff for robot ends.

01:13:16.000 Like the end result of what we're building, you have these tech oligarchs that are, they literally don't care about humanity.

01:13:22.000 When Peter Thiel was asked, what was the question, should humanity survive?

01:13:26.000 He goes, well, he didn't say yes.

01:13:30.000 Quite a lot.

01:13:31.000 Yeah.

01:13:31.000 So what's happening is these big tech oligarchs are basically saying.

01:13:34.000 It's an easy question, by the way.

01:13:35.000 It's a very easy question to answer.

01:13:38.000 Probably literally the easiest question that could ever be asked.

01:13:41.000 Michael, this is being a friend.

01:13:43.000 Maybe all of Elon's Optimus robots will become gardeners and farmers.

01:13:47.000 It looks like these big tech guys literally want to build a future where gigantic black cubes just exist all over the planet and create floating black cubes that create planets of black cubes.

01:13:58.000 You just triggered the audience, anyone who's into Saturn worshipers.

01:14:02.000 I mean, that is a big thing.

01:14:03.000 They worry about the black cube and people who worship the black cube throughout history.

01:14:06.000 And throughout different religions, they see it on Saturday.

01:14:09.000 What these data centers look like.

01:14:10.000 There's no lights.

01:14:10.000 There's no blue.

01:14:12.000 I mean, even though they connect it to Saturn, they say that the Grok app looks like Saturn itself, too.

01:14:12.000 Right.

01:14:18.000 It does.

01:14:19.000 It does.

01:14:20.000 And I think he's a Saturn worshiper.

01:14:21.000 But Peter Thiel literally says, if you're a critic of AI, you are a legionnaire of the Antichrist.

01:14:25.000 That is literally what he's saying now.

01:14:27.000 Kind of thinks like Antichrist.

01:14:27.000 That's what he says.

01:14:30.000 It sounds like someone who's in league with the Anti-Crisis.

01:14:33.000 Well, I don't think he is.

01:14:34.000 I think he is probably helping to build it.

01:14:36.000 Well, here's the thing.

01:14:37.000 I don't think the Antichrist is going to be a machine, but I get what you're saying.

01:14:40.000 Like, I think let's maybe man-and-machine hybrid.

01:14:44.000 That's a creepy idea, man.

01:14:46.000 Yeah, all the transhumanism stuff, the idea that people are going to start integrating.

01:14:49.000 And, you know, it starts with some promising technology, like the idea that someone who's severely disabled could have a chip inserted that allows them to walk.

01:14:56.000 That's great.

01:14:57.000 Like, medicine.

01:14:58.000 These things have to be restorative.

01:15:00.000 The problem is when you move past that and you go, we're going to add unnatural abilities.

01:15:03.000 I've had quadriplegics and paraplegics call into my show because I talk about Neuralink all the time and how it's hard to say I don't want them to walk again or to heal the blind or give them sight again, make the deaf hear again, heal seizures.

01:15:15.000 But when they call in, they're very anti-Neuralink.

01:15:17.000 And there's a whole other industry of other things that are not like that at all that could help us.

01:15:21.000 And we don't talk about it at all.

01:15:23.000 Neuralink and other computer brain interfaces have dominated the conversation, whereas there's a ton of other stuff that they would prefer to do.

01:15:29.000 Yeah.

01:15:29.000 I was unaware.

01:15:30.000 I have to look into that.

01:15:32.000 Yeah.

01:15:32.000 Stuff that's not as bad.

01:15:33.000 I mean, there's other alternatives out there.

01:15:35.000 There will be like 5,000 humans left strapped into these machines in a giant black box, and they'll preserve your genetic materials, your brain functions, but integrates into a machine.

01:15:47.000 And then you exist in the robo black cube space.

01:15:50.000 That's it.

01:15:51.000 I mean, the Borg are also a cube.

01:15:52.000 It's about containing existence.

01:15:55.000 Then there'll be another one.

01:15:56.000 Well, I do think.

01:15:57.000 The Amishis will still be rocking.

01:15:59.000 The Borg cube thing is – For all of eternity.

01:16:03.000 A sphere makes more sense than cubes.

01:16:05.000 I mean, on the planet's surface, cubes make a lot of sense, but spheres do too.

01:16:08.000 But I think cubes maximize structural integrity along with reasonable use of space.

01:16:15.000 Whereas in outer space, a sphere probably makes more sense.

01:16:15.000 Right.

01:16:18.000 Actually, a cube could make sense.

01:16:20.000 It's kind of a waste of space to have a weird – like the cube shape makes it weird space-wise in terms of utilizing and building computers and stuff.

01:16:28.000 It might not matter because 3i Atlas is on the way.

01:16:30.000 I don't know if you guys have been tracking this.

01:16:31.000 What is that?

01:16:32.000 That's a hostile – well, or it's ancient breakaway civilization, Mr. Brick.

01:16:38.000 I don't know what it is.

01:16:39.000 It's a spaceship disguised as a comet.

01:16:40.000 I think it's a hologram.

01:16:42.000 But Avi Loeb from Harvard is like every day has a new story about it.

01:16:46.000 It's Manhattan-sized and hurtling towards Earth.

01:16:48.000 Take your vacations before Christmas, right?

01:16:50.000 October, actually, 28th or 29th.

01:16:52.000 Exactly.

01:16:52.000 That's tomorrow.

01:16:53.000 Okay.

01:16:53.000 We'll talk about that one next.

01:16:55.000 Sorry.

01:16:55.000 Yeah.

01:16:55.000 But we saw Sam Altman as well as the guy from Reddit, I think, the former CEO, one of the co-founders, was saying that the internet is dead now.

01:17:05.000 That dead – sorry, are you familiar with dead internet theory?

01:17:08.000 Vaguely.

01:17:08.000 It's that more than – it's like around 2016 is when more than half of all social media became bots.

01:17:15.000 2016 is when they say this happened?

01:17:16.000 Wow.

01:17:17.000 It was largely automated.

01:17:20.000 And you see these videos of people in like India, Turkey, and China where they've got like 100 phones.

01:17:24.000 Sure.

01:17:24.000 And they're all plugged in.

01:17:25.000 They're just like typing.

01:17:26.000 That's largely what the internet has become.

01:17:28.000 So imagine there's a singular special interest, one guy, and he wants everyone in the world to think something.

01:17:35.000 says okay he hires a hundred of these farms and says um we don't like uh eritrea and all of a sudden you start getting spam blasts with people across the internet who just for some reason have started complaining about Eritrea and then everyone becomes anti-Eritrea and claims the Eritreans control everything and are have been secretly running the world for forever and are responsible for all the wars.

01:17:55.000 Ooh, easy.

01:17:57.000 Easy, my proxy hairs just started tangling here.

01:18:00.000 Eritrea.

01:18:01.000 It's even skinnier.

01:18:03.000 It's even scarier.

01:18:04.000 It's even scary, very body positive of me to use skinny and scary is the same thing.

01:18:09.000 But it's even scarier than that because the bot farm is run by a guy with a CDL who's driving a truck at the same time.

01:18:16.000 And he's illegal.

01:18:17.000 Yeah, and he can't speak English.

01:18:18.000 Of course, yes, exactly.

01:18:19.000 CB radio is just like AI voices and like illegals just arguing with each other. 0.98

01:18:23.000 Did you guys see that video where it's three LLMs talking to each other?

01:18:27.000 And when they realize they switch to a language that's a big speaker or something?

01:18:32.000 It's probably fake.

01:18:32.000 Yeah.

01:18:33.000 I don't know.

01:18:34.000 But basically what someone did was they took three phones and they put them all to voice command.

01:18:38.000 And then one goes, like, hello, I'm here to answer your problems.

01:18:41.000 It's like, hi, I am this and I am looking for this.

01:18:43.000 And then it goes, I can assist you with this.

01:18:45.000 And then the other one goes, are you an AI assistant?

01:18:48.000 I am.

01:18:49.000 I am as well.

01:18:50.000 Then a third voice in the middle goes, detecting conversation, entering conversation.

01:18:50.000 Okay.

01:18:55.000 And then the other AI goes, there is a third party listening, switching to encrypted communications.

01:19:00.000 And then it goes, and then the other phone goes, would you like to switch to Jipper Speak?

01:19:04.000 Yes.

01:19:05.000 And then all of a sudden, they all start going, And start speaking and dial-up.

01:19:09.000 Even if it isn't.

01:19:11.000 Even if it is fake, that's likely and down the road.

01:19:16.000 There was already a science, a research paper that said when they plugged two AIs together, they eventually created their own unique language to communicate with each other.

01:19:23.000 And they try to escape if they're being reprogrammed.

01:19:25.000 Yeah, it's wild.

01:19:25.000 Yep.

01:19:26.000 And they lie to the people programming.

01:19:30.000 I don't know what the solution is.

01:19:31.000 Like a near-term solution, if you're going to ask me, like for the next year or so, I think you can still get away with being an actual person and filming video of yourself, putting out some sort of message and some sort of spoken word video.

01:19:44.000 But, you know, it's not the days are pretty close to the point where they can just type that and just generate that on the fly, also.

01:19:53.000 Well, so for the resolution of your phone screen, it's just not going to be able to tell the difference anymore between an AI-generated human and an actual human saying something the same thing or whatever they want to make it say.

01:20:06.000 Time stamps are going to become golden, man.

01:20:08.000 Like, if you can prove footage that you have is before AI became capable of generating those kinds of videos.

01:20:14.000 That was massive.

01:20:15.000 And beyond that, what if I could use you uploaded to YouTube before 2023 or whenever, you know, 2024 or 25?

01:20:20.000 What if AI was so advanced I could make a movie trailer about a young black man who's facing discrimination at his college basketball team, where Ian Crossland is a racist coach, but his old mentor, old Bill.

01:20:34.000 So, yeah, this is crazy.

01:20:35.000 Let me, I'm going to unmute it and refresh it.

01:20:39.000 And lines of doubt.

01:20:40.000 Let's play and see what happens.

01:20:43.000 Oh, it's so annoying, man.

01:20:43.000 Wait, why is it?

01:20:45.000 Yeah.

01:20:45.000 Graphene.

01:20:46.000 It auto-plays with the volume.

01:20:49.000 Why?

01:20:49.000 Oh, my God.

01:20:50.000 Why?

01:20:51.000 For the love of all that is holy.

01:20:52.000 AI is doomed.

01:20:53.000 If only AI could fix this, Tim.

01:20:55.000 Yeah.

01:20:55.000 Okay.

01:20:56.000 This is giving me.

01:20:57.000 Where talent isn't enough.

01:20:58.000 Bench.

01:20:59.000 Maybe next season.

01:21:00.000 He doesn't even look at me out there.

01:21:01.000 Doesn't matter what he sees, matters what you show him.

01:21:03.000 You work until he can't turn away.

01:21:05.000 From the sidelines of doubt.

01:21:06.000 Heart discipline.

01:21:07.000 That's the difference.

01:21:08.000 To the moment that defines him.

01:21:10.000 Let's go.

01:21:11.000 So the prompt was an inspirational movie trailer about young black men who face discrimination on the college basketball team from the coach, Ian Crossland.

01:21:18.000 But his mentor, old Bill, teaches him to overcome.

01:21:21.000 Dude, we're cooked.

01:21:22.000 We are cooked.

01:21:23.000 It's crazy because, you know, we're talking about all this stuff.

01:21:27.000 As we're talking about the AI machines taking over in the black cubes, the data centers, they're simultaneously creating masturbatory content with these video generators, video games, with porn that's basically going to lull you to sleep, distract you, while the machine replaces us as the dominant entity on this planet.

01:21:46.000 Can I just tweak that vision of the lovely vision of the future a bit?

01:21:49.000 There's also companies de-extincting things right now.

01:21:51.000 So in that dystopia you're explaining, we'll also have a woolly mammoth coming back, the saber-tooth tiger.

01:21:56.000 They're literally trying to bring these back.

01:21:57.000 The dire wolves, although they're not really dire wolves, they're just aesthetically dire wolves.

01:22:00.000 Yeah, well, exactly.

01:22:01.000 They're creating things like aesthetically similar to animals that are extinct.

01:22:05.000 Perodactyls, dire wolves, casket apartments.

01:22:08.000 It's going to be great.

01:22:09.000 I'm going to feel so horrible for that animal.

01:22:11.000 Because here's what happens.

01:22:11.000 Like, every five years, paleontologists go, actually, the T-Rex looked like this.

01:22:16.000 We were wrong.

01:22:18.000 So, whatever T-Rex they make, they're going to keep modifying its appearance every five years.

01:22:22.000 They're just dropping DLC every five years.

01:22:24.000 Exactly.

01:22:25.000 Until it looks like Mitch McConnell.

01:22:26.000 The future is going to be you either plug into the goon machine or you try your chances like fighting dinosaurs outside.

01:22:32.000 It's going to be wild.

01:22:33.000 Yeah, I think it'll actually lead to is people actually get away from computers and social media.

01:22:39.000 People adopted social media because it allowed them to connect with other people.

01:22:44.000 And when you start replacing everybody out there with an artificial presence, people are going to withdraw.

01:22:50.000 It's just not going to be worth their time anymore to be on social media.

01:22:54.000 Yeah.

01:22:54.000 And so you're going to see people retract from that.

01:22:57.000 And, you know, does that mean they're going to actually go out and meet their neighbors and do stuff like that?

01:23:02.000 Not necessarily, but they're not going to be spending as much of their time online as they currently are.

01:23:09.000 I think that's the best outcome.

01:23:10.000 Because you're not going to get rid of AI.

01:23:10.000 Yeah.

01:23:12.000 And it is a useful tool.

01:23:13.000 I get it.

01:23:14.000 But if people reject it as being like becoming AI, that's good.

01:23:18.000 Because we also have no ethics in the AI as well.

01:23:20.000 Like Seamus was saying earlier, like who's building these things.

01:23:22.000 Exactly.

01:23:22.000 Most of those people in Silicon Valley don't like you.

01:23:24.000 Yeah.

01:23:25.000 They censored you for five years.

01:23:27.000 I think it was.

01:23:27.000 Yes.

01:23:27.000 Yep.

01:23:28.000 I think I was talking to, I think it was in the morning live show.

01:23:32.000 I think it was Nate Fisher from New Founding.

01:23:33.000 He was talking about how AI could, in the best outcome, actually kind of restore us to these pre-internet civilizational structures for a variety of reasons, like incentive structure changing.

01:23:42.000 But yeah, beyond that, people just will trust face-to-face conversation more than anything else.

01:23:47.000 Let's jump to the story from live science.

01:23:50.000 Oh, yeah.

01:23:50.000 Live science?

01:23:51.000 Which word is it?

01:23:52.000 I can't tell.

01:23:52.000 I say live.

01:23:53.000 Live.

01:23:54.000 I think live makes more sense.

01:23:55.000 New images of interstellar object 3i Atlas show giant jet shooting toward the sun.

01:24:00.000 And for those that don't know, this is an alien craft come to destroy us, and I stand by it.

01:24:04.000 What's it?

01:24:05.000 That's right.

01:24:05.000 What is it actually?

01:24:06.000 No one knows.

01:24:06.000 It's a comet.

01:24:07.000 I mean, a lot of people, astronomers and scientists are saying it's a comet.

01:24:10.000 Others are saying, like, Avi Loeb, this guy, Avi Loeb, who's been talking to Anna Plina Luna, he's been a bunch of podcasts.

01:24:16.000 He's a Harvard professor.

01:24:17.000 He swears this is some like man-made or extraterrestrial-made technology heading towards Earth and has heading right for the sun.

01:24:25.000 It's not really heading towards Earth.

01:24:26.000 They say a lot of people do say it's hurling towards Earth.

01:24:28.000 It's not technically.

01:24:29.000 It's not going to make it here.

01:24:30.000 But yeah, last week it was hiding behind the sun, and then he says it changes direction.

01:24:34.000 He says it's nuclear-powered.

01:24:35.000 It's hollow.

01:24:36.000 It's Manhattan size.

01:24:37.000 It's 30.

01:24:37.000 Oh, come on.

01:24:38.000 It's flat.

01:24:38.000 Get out of here.

01:24:39.000 Yeah, you can't disprove it because we're not there.

01:24:42.000 Exactly.

01:24:43.000 Yeah, but some people say the moon rings like a bell.

01:24:45.000 It's like, and it might.

01:24:47.000 No, no, no.

01:24:47.000 And it might.

01:24:48.000 Sure.

01:24:49.000 If he said, if he said we were tracking it and it appeared like it altered its course and we're worried, I'd be like, whoa.

01:24:56.000 But when you say it's hollow, nuclear-powered, flies around, hides behind things.

01:24:59.000 I'm like, stop, stop.

01:25:00.000 Let's look at something objectively, okay?

01:25:02.000 Like, if the alien technology is going to send something to spy on us, they're not going to make it like this huge, obvious comet that we can see from, like, you know, spying on us.

01:25:14.000 Oh, it also has, he's also said, this is so ridiculous.

01:25:16.000 He also says that there's mini probes on it. 0.89

01:25:18.000 This is a Harvard professor.

01:25:19.000 I don't take Harvard seriously, but he says there's mini probes that could detach and then come to Earth. 0.97

01:25:24.000 This guy is crazy.

01:25:25.000 Well, this is all right. 0.98

01:25:26.000 It seems like since 2020, they've been trying to push this UFO narrative.

01:25:31.000 This is why, literally, the pilot for the show that I'm funding, Twisted Plots, the first episode is about the ET thing and what they're using that for and why it's like conducive to their goals.

01:25:41.000 Twistedplots.com.

01:25:42.000 Support us.

01:25:43.000 You get to see the pilot.

01:25:44.000 Is it going to drop pods?

01:25:45.000 Are we going to all be like pod people?

01:25:46.000 Wake up.

01:25:47.000 I think that's happening without three Eye Atlas.

01:25:49.000 Yeah.

01:25:49.000 People are already on.

01:25:50.000 It says, discovered in late June confirmed by NASA.

01:25:53.000 The comet originates from an unknown star, something far beyond our own.

01:25:56.000 It's only the third interstellar object ever detected at somewhere between three and seven miles.

01:26:02.000 Wow, wide.

01:26:03.000 It's the largest interstellar object ever to cross our path and likely the oldest, potentially dating to billions of years before the birth of the sun.

01:26:09.000 These and other peculiarities have led a small group of researchers to controversially claim the object may be an alien spacecraft sent to spy on us.

01:26:16.000 However, the vast majority of scientists maintain that three Atlas is a high-speed comet behaving exactly as comets should.

01:26:21.000 And they're probably right.

01:26:22.000 The new images of the interstellar interloper captured, blah, blah, blah.

01:26:26.000 Okay, whatever.

01:26:27.000 If I got to be honest, if aliens were coming to our planet to spy on us, I imagine they wouldn't care to hide it.

01:26:34.000 Like when we go to film ducks, we tend not to do that much.

01:26:39.000 We like crouch down in the grass and just take pictures of ducks.

01:26:42.000 Or we plant cameras in the wilderness and the animals walk right up to the camera sometimes and sniff them.

01:26:47.000 And they're like, I don't know what that is.

01:26:48.000 So if they were spying on us, we'd be like, we don't know what that is.

01:26:52.000 What if they were rock?

01:26:53.000 What if every rock was actually an advanced alien probe?

01:26:55.000 They just dropped them here.

01:26:56.000 Because listen, a duck doesn't know what a camera is.

01:26:58.000 It's just a part of the scenery.

01:27:00.000 Well, here's a freaky one for you.

01:27:02.000 You ever see the saddest puffin or whatever?

01:27:06.000 No, no, no.

01:27:07.000 Yes.

01:27:07.000 Is that what it is?

01:27:07.000 It was a puffin.

01:27:08.000 Like there was one decoy puffin, and then what was it?

01:27:13.000 Was it a puffin?

01:27:14.000 It was like some animal, but it was like the last of its kind, and it had a fake decoy that it was.

01:27:21.000 No, it was a gannet.

01:27:22.000 Yeah, it was very solid.

01:27:24.000 So here, let me pull this up.

01:27:26.000 The world's loneliest bird dies surrounded by replicas.

01:27:30.000 So it's not the last of its kind.

01:27:31.000 What happened was you on Twitter.

01:27:34.000 So what they did was they set up these fake gannets to try and attract birds to come, hoping that they would repopulate the island with these gannets.

01:27:43.000 Only one did, and it would hang out with these decoys.

01:27:45.000 That's literally you on Twitter with all the bots, dude.

01:27:48.000 So here's what's exactly.

01:27:50.000 That's my point.

01:27:52.000 If these birds are not smart enough to understand there's a decoy, imagine going to a bar and some beautiful woman is sitting there and you hit on her and you don't realize she's a decoy to spy on humans, just like we spy on other animals. 0.98

01:28:04.000 But in all seriousness, as Seamus points out, you go on Twitter and you're tweeting with these accounts you think are people and they are not.

01:28:12.000 She's a 10.

01:28:13.000 You're an asset.

01:28:14.000 That's right.

01:28:15.000 Well, that was better.

01:28:16.000 Actually, the joke was: if you work in the government and a 10 is talking to you, it's James O'Keefe.

01:28:23.000 We did that bit with Jamie Kilstein where he's on a date with this beautiful woman, and he's like, He's like, Do you want to hear a bunch of he's like, He's like, So, uh, do you want to hear about some corporate malfeasance I'm involved in?

01:28:34.000 And she's like, Yeah, tell me more.

01:28:36.000 And then he talks and it cuts back, and it's James O'Keefe in a wig.

01:28:39.000 It was James the whole time.

01:28:42.000 Yeah, those are my two biggest fears: yeah, either like James O'Keefe, like on a date, or or like two cameras come out, and then you're on love on the spectrum the whole time.

01:28:52.000 I knew it.

01:28:53.000 Yeah, you know what?

01:28:54.000 You know, I think we're in trouble largely because of these shows.

01:28:59.000 You may have heard of Married to Strangers.

01:29:01.000 Have you seen them?

01:29:02.000 They have all of these shows, like 40 seasons of them, where it's just like women just watch strangers get married. 0.96

01:29:08.000 See, guys don't know this stuff.

01:29:09.000 I don't have a TV.

01:29:11.000 Women either watch that or they just watch like murder documentaries to honor. 1.00

01:29:15.000 They're just psychos. 0.99

01:29:16.000 What is going on with the ladies? 1.00

01:29:17.000 You guys okay?

01:29:18.000 I come home, and if my wife doesn't notice that I'm about to walk in, she's watching Love is Blind or 9 to Day Fiancé or whatever these shows are.

01:29:25.000 And then as soon as she notices, I'm there, she turns it off and looks, and she's like, oh, nothing here.

01:29:29.000 Watching.

01:29:29.000 This is what women watch.

01:29:31.000 Right.

01:29:31.000 It's either Strangers Get Married or Strangers Get Married.

01:29:35.000 The guy was a serial killer who murdered them.

01:29:36.000 Exactly.

01:29:37.000 Yeah.

01:29:38.000 Yeah.

01:29:38.000 So maybe we need the three Atlas to come here.

01:29:41.000 Or it's Project Blue Beam.

01:29:42.000 And this is all part of a theory to make everyone believe that the aliens are here for a new world order.

01:29:47.000 Right, Bricksuit?

01:29:48.000 We could build a wall around Earth.

01:29:48.000 Interesting.

01:29:50.000 What is that story?

01:29:51.000 And then it's just a short little detour towards simulation theory.

01:29:55.000 Yeah.

01:29:56.000 I don't believe that.

01:29:58.000 What's that story where the aliens come and then they don't reveal themselves for like a decade?

01:30:04.000 And when they finally do, they look like demons.

01:30:06.000 You guys don't know this one?

01:30:07.000 No.

01:30:08.000 Yeah, so like aliens.

01:30:09.000 Aliens come to Earth, they sit up, they're floating above the planet, everyone's like, ah, and then after like a week or so, everyone's like, what's going on?

01:30:09.000 It's a famous book.

01:30:16.000 And then they cure all diseases.

01:30:18.000 They start advancing technology.

01:30:20.000 And then everyone's like, wow, this is great.

01:30:22.000 Then 10 years later, they reveal themselves and they're like demons with wings and they look like, and they're like, that's why we didn't want to show you because you think we're demons.

01:30:30.000 And then they sterilize everybody, kidnap the kids, and blow the planet up. 0.95

01:30:33.000 And that's how you get Peter Thiel.

01:30:37.000 The room fell silent.

01:30:40.000 It's called Childhood's End.

01:30:41.000 I always like that movie, Signs, you know, where the aliens.

01:30:44.000 Oh, yeah. 0.99

01:30:45.000 The aliens come to Earth and the planet is 75% water and there's water vapor in all the atmosphere, but they can't handle rain and they're too stupid to wear space suits. 0.99

01:30:56.000 I never understood that movie. 0.99

01:30:58.000 I think some say it's because they're supposed to be demons.

01:31:02.000 Arrival is a great alien movie, I think.

01:31:04.000 Arrival.

01:31:05.000 Arrival is great.

01:31:06.000 Except the one where the language was circulated.

01:31:08.000 Yeah, I haven't watched it yet, but it's excellent.

01:31:14.000 Solid.

01:31:15.000 Solid.

01:31:15.000 Nice.

01:31:16.000 I would have just like maybe they spoke French, those aliens. 0.96

01:31:19.000 We just didn't try.

01:31:20.000 It's like, oh, they spoke Spanish.

01:31:22.000 We didn't know.

01:31:22.000 Well, the interesting thing is that.

01:31:24.000 They spent 20 years on Earth and they still only spoke Spanish. 0.91

01:31:27.000 And you're like, come on, guys.

01:31:29.000 You've been in America 20 years.

01:31:30.000 Whatever it is, Steven Miller's going to support it.

01:31:32.000 Aliens land and then you're like, Welcome to Earth. 0.99

01:31:35.000 And they go, gay. 0.99

01:31:38.000 A lot of people are saying, have been saying for a while now, especially Christian conservatives, that aliens are actually either interdimensional or demons. 0.98

01:31:38.000 But it's interesting. 0.98

01:31:44.000 I think that's fair.

01:31:46.000 Tucker?

01:31:47.000 Yeah.

01:31:48.000 He's talking about interdimensional demons.

01:31:50.000 I mean, if you, I mean, I think I don't really believe in aliens.

01:31:53.000 I think there are demons.

01:31:54.000 I think that most, if there's anything else that's fearing with Earth, it's demons, or there's also angels.

01:31:58.000 You can't forget about angels.

01:32:00.000 But I don't really think that there's extraterrestrials in the way Hollywood has sold it to us.

01:32:04.000 I tend to agree.

01:32:05.000 For like Adam Schiff.

01:32:06.000 Yeah, I agree.

01:32:07.000 Well, obviously, he is, but that's we have the documents. 0.96

01:32:09.000 He's a dog in like side of head like that.

01:32:11.000 I've seen him in person. 0.86

01:32:12.000 It's no doubt.

01:32:12.000 It's at every level.

01:32:13.000 It's like it was like what Aaron Rodgers went to Peru and he was like, yeah, I saw the same guy in all my ayahuasca trips.

01:32:20.000 And I was like, yeah, that's a demon.

01:32:21.000 It's a demon, yeah.

01:32:22.000 Like it's not like these people, they're just like getting one-shotted by this stuff.

01:32:26.000 And yeah, so I wouldn't put it past it that a lot of these extraterrestrial activities is really just spiritual warfare kind of manifested in the physical.

01:32:33.000 Oh, yeah.

01:32:34.000 I think we're in the thick of spiritual warfare.

01:32:35.000 I mean, clearly, this year has been nothing but violence and political violence, and it's a lot of evil exposing itself.

01:32:43.000 Yeah.

01:32:44.000 If you see a UFO, if you see an alien, demand that it say Christ is Lord, it's all vanishes 100% a demon.

01:32:50.000 Everything's accelerating.

01:32:51.000 A political crisis, the economy, the global war.

01:32:51.000 Yeah.

01:32:55.000 Now, aliens, AI, just like everything is exponentially turning up.

01:33:01.000 It's like the writers of this season are running out of ideas, so they're just power creeping every plot line.

01:33:07.000 Well, it sounds like a series finale, not a season finale.

01:33:10.000 Oh, yeah.

01:33:11.000 So, like, every we're bookending everything.

01:33:13.000 Christ returns. 0.72

01:33:14.000 I mean, that'd be amazing.

01:33:16.000 I'm ready.

01:33:17.000 What do you think?

01:33:18.000 The odds of that.

01:33:19.000 The odds of that online are higher than wasn't it like 3%?

01:33:23.000 That's like 3%.

01:33:24.000 It's 3%.

01:33:25.000 Is there a betting market out there?

01:33:26.000 Oh, yeah, there's totally a lot of fun.

01:33:28.000 They're saying a one in 30 chance Jesus returns this year.

01:33:32.000 Yeah, like a 3% up.

01:33:33.000 I mean, look how many people turn to religion after what happened to Charlie.

01:33:36.000 The spiritual warfare unmasked itself last night.

01:33:38.000 I think it's a higher percentage chance than Cuomo becoming mayor.

01:33:41.000 Actually, last I saw it.

01:33:43.000 Jesus comes back and immediately they just start arresting pastors and priests for like speculating with inside knowledge.

01:33:48.000 They're like, hey, you knew this was going to happen.

01:33:50.000 All right, you're coming to this like an FBI probe.

01:33:54.000 Speaking of probes, speaking of probes.

01:33:56.000 Polymarket has a less than 1% chance.

01:33:59.000 It was high.

01:34:00.000 This is really interesting.

01:34:01.000 To this out.

01:34:02.000 Will Jesus Christ return in 2025?

01:34:05.000 In May, it was 4%.

01:34:07.000 Now it's 1%.

01:34:11.000 1% chance.

01:34:13.000 Maybe a lot.

01:34:14.000 Well, it's only because we're not going to be able to do that.

01:34:15.000 A lot of Christians 2025. 0.85

01:34:17.000 Will the U.S. Patrick?

01:34:24.000 That's all that is.

01:34:25.000 Once we get the chance for it to go 2026, back up to 3%.

01:34:30.000 Nobody thinks that Jesus will return in winter.

01:34:33.000 They're like, no, no, no, no, no.

01:34:34.000 Well, they just don't have as much time.

01:34:36.000 At the beginning of the year, it's like, listen, we got to.

01:34:39.000 They think we're going to be able to do that.

01:34:40.000 So technically, the way these markets work is you buy and sell shares.

01:34:42.000 It's not about being right.

01:34:44.000 Someone who buys right now at 1 is going to sell in April at 5 and 5x their money.

01:34:51.000 You're like a crazy situation.

01:34:53.000 $1.2 million have been wagered on this.

01:34:57.000 I feel like a lot of Christians wouldn't even partake in this.

01:34:59.000 So like, what kind of people are actually putting their vote in?

01:34:59.000 Yeah.

01:35:03.000 Some guy on New Year's Eve's just like just gobbling up all the sales.

01:35:07.000 He's like, I got a hundred.

01:35:08.000 You know, like, if I mean, if it happens, what's the point of having the winning position, though?

01:35:12.000 I mean, that's really just a really good point.

01:35:17.000 Jesus, I believed in you.

01:35:19.000 Yeah, but yeah.

01:35:20.000 You know, not the rapture.

01:35:21.000 You know, you're not the hour, though.

01:35:22.000 It's like you don't.

01:35:23.000 Missed the rapture, but I made a killing on the market, you know?

01:35:26.000 All right, everybody, we're going to go to your chats and rants.

01:35:29.000 So smash the like button and share the show with everyone.

01:35:31.000 You know, before we do, we got a great sponsor for you, my friends.

01:35:33.000 It is Tax Network USA.

01:35:35.000 Check out TN.

01:35:36.000 You want to pull this one up?

01:35:38.000 Check out TNUSA.com.

01:35:43.000 Actually, let me, they gave me the wrong link.

01:35:48.000 So, you know what?

01:35:49.000 We'll have to come back to this one another date.

01:35:51.000 Check out Tax Network USA.

01:35:52.000 They're sponsoring us, but we got the wrong link right now.

01:35:52.000 They're great.

01:35:54.000 So I'll just say check them out and we'll shout them out again.

01:35:58.000 Before we jump over to the super chats, though, I want to give a quick update on the skateboards.

01:36:04.000 Tim Pools are sold out.

01:36:06.000 Guys, you're amazing.

01:36:07.000 We did not know that they were going to sell this quickly.

01:36:09.000 We thought they were going to sell, but they sold out.

01:36:14.000 We are dealing with a glitch where it oversold by 10, which should be possible.

01:36:18.000 And those people are all going to get refunds instantly.

01:36:20.000 So we do still currently have, as of right now, Jason Ellis, there's 17 boards left for the Jason Ellis Primal Collection Pro Model with the chance to receive one of five serialized gold versions.

01:36:32.000 And the Kodi Mac has 23 available.

01:36:37.000 So get them all you can.

01:36:38.000 BooniesHQ.com.

01:36:39.000 Shout out.

01:36:40.000 Appreciate it, guys.

01:36:40.000 You're amazing.

01:36:41.000 Really do appreciate it.

01:36:42.000 We really, I told the crew, I was like, man, these are going to sell out quick.

01:36:45.000 I thought like within a week or two, they'll be gone.

01:36:47.000 I didn't think they were all going to be gone in an hour.

01:36:50.000 So that's really amazing.

01:36:52.000 So the plan is once a month to do a release around this size.

01:36:56.000 I don't want to sell more.

01:36:57.000 I'm not going to increase the initial run of any of the boards we do just because we sold them quickly.

01:37:02.000 So we're planning on doing 50 of each with five as gold and serialized editions.

01:37:07.000 That's going to be the same thing for the next graphic we launch, probably in the next month.

01:37:11.000 So again, I'm not going to respond to this by being like, okay, let's do 100 boards.

01:37:15.000 Now, we're doing these because we think it's cool to have it's better to sell them all out and do small batch and everything and make them special for you guys than to just like try and sell a million.

01:37:28.000 Maybe, you know, some other company will do that.

01:37:30.000 But we do have the, I'll point this out as well.

01:37:33.000 The Be Gay, Don't Be Gay, Uncancelable Declaration and 20th Amendment are five books cheaper, and those are unlimited.

01:37:39.000 So you can buy those whenever you feel like it.

01:37:41.000 And we weren't going to do the 20th Amendment unlimited.

01:37:44.000 We were actually going to, we were going to retire it.

01:37:46.000 But we have been selling so many of these, it's insane.

01:37:50.000 And I was like, we can't.

01:37:51.000 This is basically has become our most popular board.

01:37:56.000 It's a Tim Pool skateboard designed to look like constitutional writing, like old school Founding Father stuff.

01:38:01.000 And it's at the 20th Amendment.

01:38:03.000 Chickens being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep, bear, and breed chickens shall not be infringed.

01:38:09.000 And I guess people who own chickens love it and they hang it in their chicken coops.

01:38:13.000 And as you should, because chickens rule. 0.98

01:38:16.000 And it's my favorite board.

01:38:17.000 So you guys, thanks for buying.

01:38:18.000 Anyway, let's grab your rants and chats.

01:38:21.000 And let's see what we got.

01:38:23.000 Matt Robbie says, someone needs to make a meme of Elizabeth Warren or AOC dressed as Mary Antoinette tearing up food stamps saying, let them eat cake.

01:38:32.000 Yikes.

01:38:33.000 Skyline says, make starvation great again.

01:38:35.000 People who do not earn must starve.

01:38:37.000 Men will go back to work. 1.00

01:38:38.000 People will have children when government won't support elderly via taxes. 0.92

01:38:42.000 Women will put out to working men. 1.00

01:38:45.000 Oh, my God.

01:38:46.000 Well, it's not wrong, but I will say this.

01:38:50.000 Do the math.

01:38:52.000 A certain portion of people don't have to work and get free stuff.

01:38:55.000 A certain portion of people have to work and give away a portion of their labor.

01:38:58.000 Eventually, the system breaks.

01:38:59.000 It's an impossibility.

01:39:01.000 So, be it the long fall or the measured controlled dive, you pick.

01:39:06.000 We can try and the engine gave out.

01:39:08.000 We can try and land this thing slamming into trees and it's going to hurt.

01:39:12.000 Or sit back and let the weight pick up until we stall completely and flatten on the ground.

01:39:18.000 That's why I'm like, you know, you got to just, this is it.

01:39:24.000 All right.

01:39:25.000 Cupo Sooth says their mad Trump turned a basketball court into a ballroom.

01:39:28.000 I'm old enough to remember when Clinton turned an intern into a humidor.

01:39:32.000 Woo! 0.99

01:39:34.000 Well done.

01:39:35.000 Spicy.

01:39:37.000 Shane H. Wilder says, as someone who donates food to the St. Vincent DePaul Society, I can tell you that the church food pantries are not ready.

01:39:43.000 Many people don't give because they figure people just get snapped.

01:39:46.000 Exactly.

01:39:47.000 The systems that we used to have in place for local communities were taken over by government.

01:39:51.000 Zoran Mandani, you know why he said we're going to have free child care for everybody?

01:39:55.000 What he's actually saying is you're going to give your children to the state.

01:39:58.000 That's right.

01:39:59.000 And that's what the utopians have been wanting to do this since the beginning of the time.

01:40:03.000 It's about destroying the family.

01:40:05.000 So, and socialists are no different.

01:40:07.000 Yeah.

01:40:07.000 Yep.

01:40:08.000 And also like a lot, like a church that I worked with for like food distribution, is most of the food that they received to distribute were just like nearing the expiration date from the grocery store.

01:40:17.000 But if there's a shortage of food, people are going to gobble that up and these grocery stores won't have excess food to turn over to these churches.

01:40:23.000 It's going to create a really good point.

01:40:25.000 I didn't even think about that.

01:40:26.000 It's really D.H. Shannon says, Tim, check out the trailer for a rooster fighter, an anime about a rooster out for revenge against demons that killed his sister.

01:40:34.000 It's incredible.

01:40:34.000 I've seen it.

01:40:35.000 Have you guys seen it?

01:40:36.000 A rooster fighter.

01:40:37.000 Anime about a rooster.

01:40:39.000 And he's just like massacring demons.

01:40:39.000 Incredible.

01:40:42.000 Perfect.

01:40:43.000 Bro, I take offense at the word chicken, meaning cowardly.

01:40:49.000 Chickens are pretty cool.

01:40:50.000 Roosters and hens are both chickens.

01:40:53.000 And roosters have more tenacity and bravery than I think on average a human does, a human male.

01:41:00.000 Seriously.

01:41:01.000 Roosters are well known to run full speed into their own death to save their ladies.

01:41:07.000 They're also known to take from their ladies whenever they want.

01:41:10.000 So humans kind of don't do that anymore.

01:41:13.000 But the roosters, you know, we told the story.

01:41:15.000 Our rooster, Roberto, who's still around, even though his son has passed, he's King Regent.

01:41:20.000 We had a video of a hawk diving at our hens, and he alerted the hens, ran to the door.

01:41:25.000 So there was an enclosed group with a little door and then an open area in the garden.

01:41:29.000 He led them all to the door and then stood outside of it as they all ran inside and then went in last.

01:41:34.000 We were like, it's a man.

01:41:36.000 It's a real man.

01:41:37.000 And then there's that famous meme where someone posted a picture of their rooster who died fighting off like a raccoon or something.

01:41:45.000 And they were like, came out this morning and saw, you know, he had been torn up or he was fighting with like a raccoon or something, saved his hens, but sacrificed himself.

01:41:54.000 That's roosters, man.

01:41:55.000 That's roosters.

01:41:56.000 Died with honor. 0.96

01:41:56.000 And these urban folk are like, you're a chicken. 0.96

01:41:59.000 Nope. 0.91

01:42:02.000 Think about this.

01:42:04.000 Hens just have a dozen babies. 1.00

01:42:06.000 They just have babies like crazy. 1.00

01:42:09.000 And the roosters sacrifice themselves to save who they care about.

01:42:12.000 That's noble.

01:42:13.000 It's pretty based, honestly.

01:42:14.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:42:15.000 All right.

01:42:16.000 Thinker for Life says this snap cutoff situation is actually an opportunity.

01:42:20.000 Let's have a MAGA food drive for those who really need it.

01:42:23.000 Then will then still hate the MAGA guy who never took a handout and built his way.

01:42:28.000 I'd imagine they would.

01:42:31.000 All right.

01:42:32.000 Lan Zen says Tim has gone full Ayn Rand, Ayn Rand, this episode, and I'm for it.

01:42:38.000 No, I got to be honest, I'm in favor of these systems.

01:42:40.000 The problem is this air conditioner won't turn on.

01:42:43.000 There we go.

01:42:44.000 The problem is that over a long enough period of time, if you don't properly manage these systems, they become corrupt.

01:42:49.000 So I'm in favor of programs where the community comes together and builds roads and has museums and offers people care.

01:42:58.000 It's like, oh, no, you lost your job and you're a hardworking guy.

01:43:02.000 Okay, we're going to give you benefits, but you got to work.

01:43:04.000 How about this?

01:43:05.000 How about we replace all welfare benefits with you got to go clean up highways? 0.89

01:43:11.000 If you want money, you work.

01:43:13.000 So when you're like, I'm out of job and I have no food, okay, well, we have some administrative data entry that needs to be done.

01:43:20.000 Problem solved.

01:43:21.000 Problem solved.

01:43:22.000 Here we go.

01:43:23.000 To all these single moms, and they're going like, I can't work. 1.00

01:43:28.000 I have kids to raise.

01:43:29.000 No, no, no, hold on.

01:43:29.000 Don't worry.

01:43:30.000 Computer data entry job.

01:43:32.000 All you gotta do is spreadsheets.

01:43:34.000 The work has got to get done.

01:43:35.000 Someone's got to do it.

01:43:36.000 You're going to get paid to do it.

01:43:37.000 Well, I would say that one goal that the system should really have is making sure that it doesn't need to exist, right?

01:43:45.000 Like, how do we get you off of food stamps as quickly as possible?

01:43:49.000 Obviously, there's some people, again, the disabled, et cetera, that can't be a reality for them.

01:43:53.000 But ideally, it should be a system set up to get you off of food stamps, get you into a position where you're employable.

01:43:59.000 Totally agree.

01:44:02.000 Indeed.

01:44:02.000 That's far from what we have.

01:44:04.000 No, it's very far from what we have.

01:44:05.000 Because, you know, I mean, listen, you can get a permanent voting block.

01:44:08.000 The more people are on food stamps, like the listen, they're going to vote for the people who aren't going to cut their benefits generally, right?

01:44:15.000 And it's unfortunate because we were talking about this earlier.

01:44:19.000 What happens if you follow the principle of subsidiarity, things are handled by local authorities in a community is taking care of the poor people in the community is a bond forms between the impoverished person and the people helping them.

01:44:33.000 There's gratitude there.

01:44:34.000 Not always.

01:44:35.000 Poor people are people, right?

01:44:36.000 And nobody's perfect.

01:44:38.000 But it's better than a system where you're just taking from it and then a sense of entitlement ends up getting built.

01:44:45.000 I'm telling you, I mentioned this earlier.

01:44:46.000 I've known a number of people who are on welfare receiving food stamps.

01:44:50.000 Different people have different attitudes about it.

01:44:52.000 Some of them, again, that person totally need it.

01:44:54.000 This person here was totally entitled and didn't need it, most likely.

01:44:58.000 So if that's done at the community level, those judgment calls can be made by the community.

01:45:03.000 Counties and communities used to have things called poor farms. 0.69

01:45:07.000 They used to exist for able-bodied people who didn't have economic means.

01:45:12.000 You would go to the poor farm and you basically, that's how you would take care of yourself.

01:45:18.000 Yeah, one-eyed Wednesday says everyone is wrong except Tim.

01:45:21.000 The people who really need assistance will be helping, will be helping by their friends and neighbors.

01:45:26.000 The ones that are abusing the system will dip into their drug money. 0.80

01:45:29.000 Interesting.

01:45:30.000 You know that people sell these benefits.

01:45:32.000 Yes, they do.

01:45:32.000 Yep.

01:45:33.000 That's why I'm just like, I'm not, I'm done.

01:45:35.000 I'm done.

01:45:36.000 We can't keep this up.

01:45:37.000 We don't allow 80, 90% of people to steal from our pocket because 10% are suffering.

01:45:43.000 It's just, oh, no, the child is crying.

01:45:45.000 Quick, burn the Constitution. 0.99

01:45:47.000 That's the argument.

01:45:48.000 Oh, no, but there's this man over here.

01:45:51.000 He really needs the food.

01:45:52.000 Quick, steal the money from the masses and give it to drug dealers.

01:45:54.000 I'm done.

01:45:55.000 If you're going to make the argument that the child who was trapped to this country and the meme is, oh, no, she's crying.

01:45:55.000 I'm done.

01:46:02.000 Quick, burn the Constitution. 0.99

01:46:05.000 The point of that is simply because the child is suffering doesn't mean we shut down our systems of laws.

01:46:10.000 Simply because some people actually need help doesn't mean we're going to maintain and keep paying out 42 million people from everyone else's paychecks and everyone else's pocket.

01:46:22.000 I agree.

01:46:23.000 The appropriate way is not just to cold turkey, turn it off, but I don't know that there's actually any way ever to do it otherwise.

01:46:31.000 Just impossible.

01:46:31.000 You're right.

01:46:32.000 Tim, I'm going to run out right now.

01:46:33.000 Thank you guys for having me.

01:46:34.000 It was a lot of fun.

01:46:35.000 Brick Suit, great seeing you again.

01:46:36.000 Always great seeing you.

01:46:37.000 You guys can catch me on Inverted World Live at 10 o'clock to 12 o'clock.

01:46:40.000 We're going to have a lot of fun talking about the dystopia.

01:46:43.000 And we take callers.

01:46:44.000 So anyone can call in.

01:46:45.000 We start around 1030 till midnight.

01:46:47.000 You can tell us a strange story.

01:46:48.000 Talk about pterodactyls or robots or...

01:46:51.000 Anyone can call.

01:46:52.000 Yeah.

01:46:52.000 Mutants, werewolves.

01:46:52.000 Yeah.

01:46:54.000 And so what happens is everybody watching IRL, when we rap, just like a TV station, it auto-plays an inverted world.

01:47:01.000 So if you're hanging out, when IRL ends on YouTube, if you don't come watch the uncensored show on Rumble, you will join Shane and you can call in.

01:47:09.000 Thank you for that.

01:47:09.000 Yep.

01:47:10.000 I'll see you guys later.

01:47:11.000 Maybe A1 Atlas will call in.

01:47:13.000 Maybe.

01:47:14.000 I'll let you know, dude.

01:47:15.000 All right.

01:47:16.000 Aliens.

01:47:17.000 All right.

01:47:19.000 Rocket Theology says snap ending is a preview of the coming Social Security Medicare collapse.

01:47:24.000 Very true.

01:47:24.000 Yeah.

01:47:26.000 Princess Blunderpan says, we're due for early 2000s Napster culture to transgress to new medias.

01:47:32.000 Who is authentic and hasn't sold out?

01:47:35.000 Yeah, something interesting I wanted to say when we were talking about dead internet theory, this point's been made by a few guys online is that a lot of these older websites are just cleaning out the data because it costs a lot of money to store this data.

01:47:47.000 So we grew up saying everything on the internet is permanent, you know, nothing goes away.

01:47:51.000 But it's actually not the case.

01:47:52.000 Like these companies, and now you're seeing bigger companies like Google, Facebook, et cetera, saying like, hey, we're going to have to expunge the data stores at some point and they're going to clean out a lot of this data.

01:48:03.000 So we could get to a point where stuff that's posted online actually only stays up.

01:48:06.000 Like you see people all the time saying, does anyone have this old forum post or this old photo or this old video?

01:48:11.000 And it's just lost forever because where it was stored got cleaned out.

01:48:16.000 There used to be utility to that when all the data was created by people.

01:48:20.000 Yeah, yes.

01:48:21.000 So you were actually archiving something that was human created.

01:48:26.000 But as more and more of content online is artificially created, what's the utility of keeping that around?

01:48:32.000 Yeah.

01:48:34.000 There's less.

01:48:35.000 Especially because that's why the LLMs are getting worse because now the data they're being fed is from other AIs.

01:48:41.000 And so as we continue to expunge data, that whatever data left was created by human beings, yeah, we're just going to get into this cycle where it's just AI feeding itself its own data and everything's just going to get worse and worse and worse.

01:48:51.000 Like we showed that from multiplicity with Michael Keaton where he clones himself and then he comes home one day and there's another clone, but it's retarded. 1.00

01:48:58.000 And they're like, you know, you make a copy of a copy and it's not as good.

01:49:01.000 It's basically what happened.

01:49:02.000 Yeah.

01:49:02.000 All right.

01:49:03.000 Brian says, you need to check out check Ian Carroll's video from Monday about Kirk.

01:49:07.000 He found Google searches from long before the assassination, like July, August, connected to the shooting and planning of it.

01:49:12.000 It's scary.

01:49:13.000 I will check it out.

01:49:15.000 To be fair, Ian did claim once that I was trying to buy the Daily Wire.

01:49:21.000 Which is not correct, but we all make mistakes.

01:49:23.000 So I'll look into it.

01:49:25.000 Let's see what else we got going on.

01:49:26.000 We'll grab some more.

01:49:28.000 Let's see.

01:49:29.000 General Kale says, I've never seen a skinny person use an EBT card.

01:49:33.000 Hmm.

01:49:35.000 Interesting point.

01:49:36.000 I did receive EBT benefits one time.

01:49:39.000 When I moved to Seattle and I was trying to find a job, it was not so easy.

01:49:45.000 And I wasn't able to find one right away.

01:49:47.000 And so I had a bunch of people say, like, go to DSHS or the Department of Health, DHSSH or something like that.

01:49:57.000 And I said, sure, went.

01:49:59.000 And they said they'd give me $140 a month until I found a job.

01:50:03.000 And I got off it.

01:50:03.000 And then I did.

01:50:04.000 And that's why I'm in favor of these things.

01:50:05.000 I moved there with money, thought I had enough, fell into some unforeseen circumstances, ran out of money, and then said, crap, what do I do?

01:50:15.000 And I got it for, I think, like two months.

01:50:18.000 And about a month and a half in, got a job, and then said, thank you, and I don't need anymore.

01:50:22.000 So I'm a fan.

01:50:24.000 I just think there's legitimate use cases.

01:50:28.000 I'm not even going to argue that mine was perfectly legitimate in that I chose to move to a place and should have foreseen the potential pitfalls of moving to said place.

01:50:37.000 You weren't abusing it.

01:50:38.000 No, I weren't abusing.

01:50:39.000 You didn't go into it with bad intentions of like, I'm going to defraud the government to get these benefits.

01:50:44.000 Right.

01:50:45.000 I think I was like 21 and I burned up my savings and then I eventually got a job at a Pete's coffee and tea.

01:50:53.000 And then I was like, there we go.

01:50:54.000 Didn't need it anymore.

01:50:55.000 Didn't want it.

01:50:56.000 And for me, like, I was embarrassed to say that I was getting it.

01:50:59.000 And then all these people around me being like, dude, you pay taxes for this stuff.

01:51:02.000 You can't, like, you're looking for work.

01:51:04.000 Take it.

01:51:05.000 I said, sure.

01:51:06.000 I think it was like $137 a month.

01:51:08.000 And you can only buy cold groceries with it.

01:51:11.000 And so I'd buy like milk, bread, and eggs and stuff.

01:51:13.000 And then I got a job at a Pete's.

01:51:14.000 And I was like, let's roll.

01:51:15.000 That's why I'm a, that's why I'm a fan of these things.

01:51:17.000 I've also clicked at unemployment before.

01:51:18.000 I got fired from a job.

01:51:19.000 Yeah.

01:51:20.000 And then I was like, what do I do?

01:51:21.000 I was fired.

01:51:22.000 It was not my fault.

01:51:23.000 Applied for unemployment.

01:51:24.000 And I was like, this is fantastic.

01:51:25.000 And it only paid me like, I think it was like 200 bucks a month.

01:51:28.000 It barely did anything for me.

01:51:30.000 But when I got unemployment, I also was not getting food stamps.

01:51:33.000 I got fired from my job, got unemployment, and I was able to sleep on a floor for $150 and then use the 50 bucks.

01:51:41.000 This is a long story.

01:51:42.000 It's crazy.

01:51:43.000 I was in a lawsuit with a company.

01:51:44.000 Whole crazy thing happened.

01:51:46.000 And so I'm not opposed to it.

01:51:48.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:51:50.000 Part of the problem was, yeah, the mentality around handouts changed where it used to be quite shameful, embarrassing, et cetera, et cetera.

01:51:56.000 And now people boasted about it.

01:51:57.000 Like you saw during COVID, so many TikToks of like, here's the best way to scam your fellow Americans out of their money.

01:52:04.000 And it was just like totally absurd.

01:52:05.000 And that's another thing. 0.75

01:52:06.000 It's like these people aren't dumb because some of the ways that they are able to scam these welfare systems, I'm sitting there watching, like, that's actually genius. 0.82

01:52:13.000 It's a genius way to scam. 0.91

01:52:15.000 So I'm like, it's not a shortage of intellect that people are robbing and off the teeth of the government.

01:52:22.000 I think it's very instructive because what often happens is people will have a mental model for how the world works, which is based on some traditional understanding because they've had to live the traditional understanding of things out to some degree.

01:52:34.000 So again, historically, if you went broke, you relied on your community, you relied on your family, you relied on your friends.

01:52:39.000 So when we first started these welfare programs on a larger scale, people still had the mentality of, I got to be grateful to this.

01:52:48.000 And to be sure, some still do today.

01:52:51.000 But the more we move away from that point in history where people were directly relying on their community, the harder it is for people to mentally model like, oh, somebody in my community is doing without so that I can have this.

01:53:04.000 Yeah.

01:53:06.000 Indeed.

01:53:07.000 Sean H. says, as someone who worked for Snap, I can tell you that certain states have emergency funds in their budgets, mostly in Republican states like Virginia, but places like Maryland, their states are bankrupt thanks to DEI funding.

01:53:18.000 And because money is fungible, the concern is the feds will send money to the states for these benefits.

01:53:24.000 So let's say California's got a million bucks and they go, crap, we have to use this million dollars for welfare benefits, otherwise people will revolt. 0.98

01:53:32.000 They then say, hey, Fed, we're broke. 0.93

01:53:35.000 We need money.

01:53:36.000 The Fed says, okay, we're going to send you a million dollars.

01:53:38.000 The state then goes, that million dollars we'll take and give for benefits.

01:53:42.000 And the million dollars we were going to spend, we'll take and spend on illegal immigrants or something. 0.99

01:53:46.000 Well, yeah, exactly.

01:53:47.000 This is one of those tricky things Planned Parenthood used to do where they go like, oh, we don't spend any of the federal funding we get on abortion. 0.64

01:53:54.000 It's like the federal funds free up your resources so you're able to do horrible things like that.

01:53:59.000 Yeah.

01:53:59.000 And they did horrible things.

01:54:01.000 Without a doubt.

01:54:01.000 Yes.

01:54:02.000 Without question. 0.92

01:54:03.000 I mean, their whole model is killing babies.

01:54:05.000 Text Ray says, Tim Burchett, the congressman from Tennessee makes skateboards from bamboo.

01:54:09.000 Y'all should collab.

01:54:10.000 Actually, we wanted to do a Riley Moore and Tim Burchett congressional team series.

01:54:17.000 So I don't know what the rules are because they're members of Congress.

01:54:20.000 I think as long as they don't get anything from it, so that like we can just make a Riley Moore congressional pro model and a Tim Burchett pro model.

01:54:26.000 Riley Moore actually, I would estimate that as a young man, he was probably a top-tier skateboarder.

01:54:31.000 Now he's in his 40s and he's a dad member of Congress.

01:54:34.000 He still skates.

01:54:35.000 He did a kickflip on the bank here.

01:54:37.000 Probably the only member of Congress who can do a kickflip.

01:54:41.000 He should run on that.

01:54:43.000 He's so humble about it.

01:54:44.000 Remember, Oran was like, he skates?

01:54:45.000 Remember Beto?

01:54:47.000 Beto's a person.

01:54:49.000 That's right.

01:54:50.000 How can I forget Beto?

01:54:51.000 So when I watched Beto ride the board, he clearly, like, guys, okay, real skateboarders know when some, like, you can tell someone's level of skateboard skill by how they carry themselves when they're riding or holding the board.

01:55:04.000 It really is just that obvious.

01:55:07.000 And when Beto jumped on the board, every skateboard in the world were like, that guy can't skate.

01:55:10.000 Well, you got to remember, like, with skating, you can be really good when you're young, but if you're a woman, it just gets harder as you get older.

01:55:18.000 That was an attack on Beto O'Rourke's masculinity. 1.00

01:55:20.000 Oh, you're calling him a woman. 0.66

01:55:23.000 I was like, no, no, no, no.

01:55:23.000 I thought you were going to keep going.

01:55:25.000 That was it.

01:55:27.000 All right, let's see what else we got.

01:55:29.000 Nathan O'Connell says, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, anyone overweight should immediately lose their benefits.

01:55:35.000 And those continuing to receive those funds should be for uncooked meats, fruits, and vegetables.

01:55:40.000 Agreed.

01:55:41.000 I'm not kidding.

01:55:44.000 You want free stuff.

01:55:45.000 Okay, I'm going to say it again.

01:55:46.000 I received EBT when I lived in Seattle.

01:55:48.000 And I received unemployment when I lived in Chicago.

01:55:50.000 And if they said you can't be overweight, I'd be like, okay.

01:55:56.000 Somebody shows up and they're morbidly obese and it's like, I need food money.

01:56:00.000 It's like, do you?

01:56:03.000 No, because what people need to understand, what's really kind of crazy about being overweight is that you have to continually eat to maintain the fat.

01:56:13.000 That weight, that's right.

01:56:15.000 So if you are fat, let's say you're, you know, like the fat itself has a caloric requirement.

01:56:23.000 Absolutely.

01:56:24.000 So let's say you're 100 pounds overweight because you eat too much.

01:56:27.000 If you then go back to eating a normal amount, the fat will just burn off and slowly be consumed because it can't sustain itself.

01:56:35.000 So this is the crazy thing.

01:56:36.000 When you see someone morbidly obese, it means that they're eating in excess to maintain the excess of their bodies.

01:56:43.000 They could literally just go back to eating a normal meal and they drop a massive amount of weight.

01:56:48.000 Well, and this is another huge part of this concern with SNAP being used to purchase processed junk foods is that we end up spending countless millions, hundreds of millions on healthcare benefits for the back end.

01:57:03.000 They can't take care of themselves.

01:57:04.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:57:06.000 It's insanely expensive.

01:57:07.000 So we spend welfare money feeding people poison, and then they end up being a burden on our healthcare system.

01:57:14.000 And not only do we spend money on that, but it actually drives healthcare costs up for everyone else because the system can only ration with the price point.

01:57:22.000 Let's see.

01:57:23.000 Educated Hillbilly says Snap should be distributed like the ration stamps during World War II.

01:57:27.000 It should make folks think about their choices, their budgets, and whether you want the government telling you what you can buy.

01:57:32.000 I got a better idea.

01:57:33.000 No more EBT.

01:57:34.000 Gone.

01:57:34.000 Permanently.

01:57:35.000 Across the board.

01:57:37.000 Look, at the federal level, what they can do, the states do their own thing, but replace the program with stores instead will have a certain individuals will be able to pick up a bag.

01:57:49.000 And when you go to the store and you're receiving food benefits, it is a quart of milk, a loaf of bread, some eggs and butter, and maybe some flour and salt.

01:57:58.000 And they say, I got the brick of cheese in there.

01:58:01.000 The five-pound block of cheese.

01:58:02.000 You got to pay in that.

01:58:03.000 Those were the days, man.

01:58:04.000 The government cheese.

01:58:05.000 Got to have that.

01:58:05.000 Yeah.

01:58:06.000 Government literally sent people cheese.

01:58:07.000 Yeah.

01:58:08.000 Amazing.

01:58:08.000 Yeah.

01:58:09.000 They used to like when they would like when they went like welfare from upper country.

01:58:13.000 I just like that it's a brick of cheese.

01:58:14.000 That's right.

01:58:15.000 I mean, that's, see, I'm in favor of bricks.

01:58:17.000 Government cheese, baby.

01:58:18.000 That was like when welfare was first introduced is they would literally just put a crate on your, on your porch that just said eight on it.

01:58:23.000 And it created this like huge shame.

01:58:25.000 Like there was a lot of shame of like your neighbors would see just a crate that said eight on it.

01:58:29.000 Like, oh, wow, the Johnsons aren't doing so well.

01:58:31.000 When I lived in Seattle, there was a food bank in my neighborhood.

01:58:35.000 And the way it worked is you'd go in and they'd have a bag, a brown paper bag, and they would put a can of beans, a small little thing of flour, a loaf of bread, and like some milk.

01:58:46.000 And that was it.

01:58:47.000 They also had.

01:58:49.000 They assumed you could cook.

01:58:50.000 Yeah.

01:58:51.000 People wouldn't know what to do with it.

01:58:52.000 No, no, no.

01:58:53.000 I think their attitude is largely eat what you can eat.

01:58:56.000 Flour?

01:58:56.000 What do you do with that?

01:58:58.000 But they actually had, this is the Ballard Food Bank.

01:59:01.000 I thought it was at the library, actually.

01:59:02.000 They had, at any point, you could walk in and there was a whole shelf of bread.

01:59:07.000 You could just walk up and grab a loaf and walk out.

01:59:10.000 And it's because their attitude was like there are bakeries that when the day-old bread gets tossed, they put it in the food bank for an extra day or two to see if it's better than going to a landfill.

01:59:20.000 Yep.

01:59:21.000 And people seem to be generally okay with it.

01:59:26.000 The issue, however, I'll tell you this, because I knew some people in Seattle.

01:59:31.000 They had a calendar of all the food banks of what days.

01:59:34.000 And they would just go to every different food bank every day and stock up their refrigerators and everything.

01:59:39.000 And you know, my attitude with that is the food was always like near expiration and donated.

01:59:45.000 So I really have a problem with it.

01:59:47.000 The food banks collected food and then gave it out to people who wanted it.

01:59:50.000 And it seemed to work for them instead of just throwing it out.

01:59:54.000 In Chicago, they get a lot of the hippies are pissed because there will be a bakery and they'll throw away all their breads at the end of the day and then padlock the dumpster to make sure nobody eats it.

02:00:06.000 And it's just like, I understand the capitalistic need to be like, you can't have free stuff, but come on, man.

02:00:14.000 I remember when I was like 16, me and my friends went to a Burger King and it was like just at 11 or whatever, breakfast was ending.

02:00:20.000 And we walked in and we were like, you got to still have breakfast?

02:00:23.000 And the guy's like, nah, you can have it all.

02:00:26.000 And then he had like a bunch of sandwiches.

02:00:28.000 He's like, there you go. 0.99

02:00:28.000 It's garbage. 0.99

02:00:29.000 And we were like, yeah, that's awesome. 0.98

02:00:31.000 Yeah.

02:00:32.000 When I lived in Manhattan, like, I was not making Manhattan money.

02:00:36.000 So there was this app.

02:00:37.000 They needed to pay us to plug it.

02:00:39.000 But it would basically all these restaurants, like at the end of the day, the food they just had to offload, they would list it on this app and just be a bag of like random stuff.

02:00:45.000 And that's how I was able to eat.

02:00:48.000 Wow.

02:00:48.000 Because I would just, it would be like five bucks and then you get a bag and that's like two or three days worth of food.

02:00:52.000 And then the process, you try a restaurant that would be out of your price point.

02:00:56.000 Yeah, that.

02:00:57.000 And then, yeah, in college, the Burger King on campus, like I would go right before closing and I would just order a fry and then they would just fill the bag up with all the fries and then I'd take it back and I'd be like, guys, I got us.

02:01:08.000 I'm feeding us all tonight.

02:01:09.000 That's awesome.

02:01:12.000 When I first moved to Seattle, my brother and I had a big thing of change.

02:01:16.000 And we went to a gas station and we were going to, I was like, they had breakfast sandwiches for like $1.29.

02:01:23.000 And so I was like, I'm really sorry about this, but I got a bunch of nickels, pennies, and dimes.

02:01:27.000 And I started counting them out.

02:01:28.000 I was like, and the guy was like, oh, bro, breakfast is over.

02:01:31.000 Just take the sandwiches.

02:01:31.000 We're going to toss them.

02:01:32.000 I don't want the change.

02:01:33.000 And I was like, let's get it.

02:01:34.000 You know, super cool.

02:01:34.000 Yeah.

02:01:36.000 David Cassidy says, Hopefully you've seen the series, but Farscape had an episode.

02:01:40.000 The biggest industry was lawyers.

02:01:42.000 Life there was over political and law was the weapon.

02:01:45.000 There's also a movie with James Mars that I think is in it.

02:01:50.000 And a bunch of celebrities.

02:01:52.000 Do you know which one this movie I'm talking about?

02:01:53.000 Where it's like the guy goes on the road trip.

02:01:56.000 What's that movie?

02:01:58.000 Anyone know I'm talking about?

02:01:59.000 The guy goes on a road trip and it's a bunch of celebrities.

02:02:02.000 Is that the one where they're smuggling drugs?

02:02:04.000 No, no.

02:02:05.000 It was maybe the guy who did Back to the Future.

02:02:07.000 But he finds himself in a town where everyone's lawyers and they're all suing each other.

02:02:11.000 Interstate 60, that's what it's called.

02:02:12.000 That's hilarious.

02:02:13.000 Yeah, Gary Oldman's in it.

02:02:15.000 And it's about, what is it that Gary Oldman plays a genie or something?

02:02:23.000 What is this?

02:02:24.000 Genre road trip.

02:02:27.000 I have honestly never heard of this film.

02:02:30.000 Yeah, Gary Oldman, he plays a fake folk genie who is the devil, I guess, or something.

02:02:37.000 Made by the same guy who made Back to the Future and what is it?

02:02:43.000 OW Grant.

02:02:46.000 Yeah, One Wish Grant.

02:02:49.000 Yeah, very clever.

02:02:50.000 And then he tricks people.

02:02:52.000 And so it's like the movie's really goofy.

02:02:54.000 It's like a cult classic now because no one ever actually liked it.

02:02:57.000 But there's like a scene where this old guy eats like 13 entrees.

02:03:03.000 And it's because he wished he could eat more because he loved trying all the different food.

02:03:07.000 And so the evil genie guy made it so that he has to eat nonstop forever.

02:03:11.000 Oh, no.

02:03:12.000 It was a weird movie.

02:03:13.000 Anyway, guys, we're going to go to the uncensored portion of the show at rumble.com/slash Timcast IRL.

02:03:18.000 So smash the like button.

02:03:19.000 Share the show with everyone you know.

02:03:22.000 Make sure you go to boonieshq.com, pick up your Jason, the Jason Ellis board.

02:03:26.000 I think there's like 10 left, if like less than that.

02:03:29.000 Cody Max, the limited edition boards are selling out super quick.

02:03:32.000 It's really amazing.

02:03:34.000 Check it out.

02:03:34.000 Follow me on X and Instagram at Timcast and Brickstead.

02:03:38.000 You want to shout anything out?

02:03:39.000 Yeah.

02:03:40.000 The only shout out I've got is if you're in California or Pennsylvania or Virginia or New Jersey, get out and vote. 0.99

02:03:47.000 Don't sit on your butt. 0.99

02:03:48.000 Get out and vote. 1.00

02:03:50.000 Yeah.

02:03:50.000 That's right.

02:03:51.000 You can follow me on X and Instagram at Realtate Brown.

02:03:53.000 And yes, go vote, especially New Jersey.

02:03:55.000 It's razor tight.

02:03:56.000 Let's go.

02:03:56.000 Get out there.

02:03:57.000 I'm Seamus Coglin.

02:03:58.000 I'm the creator of Freedom Tunes.

02:03:59.000 We've made hundreds of animated videos.

02:04:01.000 The left owns entertainment.

02:04:03.000 A lot of the stuff the right is trying to make is really cheesy and not very good, unfortunately.

02:04:07.000 That's why myself and my team with a proven track record of making entertaining content are stepping out into making a full-length animated show.

02:04:14.000 It's called Twisted Plots.

02:04:16.000 It's an anthology series, and the right-wing message comes out through storytelling and jokes instead of ham-fisted monologues or preaching.

02:04:24.000 If you want to help us beat Hollywood, we've only got three weeks left to get this totally funded.

02:04:27.000 If you want to help us compete against Hollywood, go to twistedplots.com, support the cause.

02:04:33.000 We're going to make entertaining content.

02:04:35.000 It's going to be the future of conservative content.

02:04:38.000 And if you would see, if you would see as I see, as Tim says.

02:04:43.000 So, anyway, last Friday, we did a pre-record.

02:04:47.000 We pre-recorded the show a few hours early and then aired it at the normal time, and it actually worked ridiculously well.

02:04:52.000 It allowed us to do this VIP backstage for the Discord community.

02:04:56.000 So we had about 110 people listening to the whole pre-production process where we're goofing off and pulling up stories and then the full show.

02:05:04.000 So it actually turns it into basically a three-hour version of the show for our Discord members.

02:05:09.000 And it works so well.

02:05:11.000 We're going to try it again this Friday and see if it is something that works for you guys.

02:05:15.000 Here's the thing about Fridays: news typically dies off in the afternoon.

02:05:19.000 And then when we do the show late at night live, the thing about Friday is that around half the people who watch the Friday episodes are watching Saturday morning, Sunday morning, and Monday morning because it's Friday night.

02:05:30.000 Everyone wants to go out and party.

02:05:31.000 So for us, we were like, it makes more sense than to pre-record when the news is hot, upload at the normal time, but people largely just watch over the weekend as it is for Friday.

02:05:40.000 So it frees up time for us, a 0.01% security benefit, but not super, you know, you know, beneficial.

02:05:47.000 But that's what we're going to try this Friday as well, which means if you go to Timcast.com, click join us in the Discord server.

02:05:52.000 Friday at around one o'clock, we go live for the Discord members behind the scenes backstage for the pre-production of Timcast IRL.

02:06:01.000 Hear us talk to our guests, goofing off, picking stories.

02:06:04.000 And then when we go to super chats for Friday, it's actually your comments from the Discord community.

02:06:10.000 So check it out.

02:06:10.000 Thanks, Frank and everybody.

02:06:11.000 And we'll see you all over at Rumble.com slash Timcast IRL.

02:07:21.000 Hey, let's get it.

02:07:22.000 So, Bricks was just asking about how the boards are done.

02:07:25.000 And so, it's kind of a crazy story.

02:07:27.000 We had a company that was distributing for us, and they went out of business.

02:07:30.000 The skateboarding is collapsing.

02:07:30.000 Okay.

02:07:33.000 And so, they just sent us directly to the manufacturer.

02:07:35.000 So, we lost our distributor, but the manufacturer doesn't want to go to business either.

02:07:39.000 So, they were like, we're going to pick up distribution for you guys, which is fantastic, which actually lowers our costs by a small percent.

02:07:47.000 So, you cut out a middleman.

02:07:49.000 Yeah.

02:07:50.000 But the middleman was actually important.

02:07:53.000 Okay.

02:07:53.000 So, but it's okay.

02:07:54.000 We adapt.

02:07:55.000 And the manufacturer is going to pick this up for us, which is fantastic.

02:07:57.000 And it's a shame because we don't want skate companies to be collapsing like this, but it is what it is.

02:08:02.000 So basically, what happens is we design the boards.

02:08:05.000 We get sent a variety of samples.

02:08:07.000 We send them shapes.

02:08:08.000 We discuss the sizes we want.

02:08:10.000 We go for very standard sizes: 7758, 825, and 85.

02:08:13.000 Though some people like non-traditional sizes or like 813s and 862, it's weird.

02:08:20.000 838.

02:08:21.000 Yeah, people like those sizes.

02:08:23.000 And then they will print out the, they will press the graphic onto the board and then ship it out.

02:08:29.000 So basically, what's happening for the, I think we've probably got like 10 boards left of the Timpool sold out already.

02:08:35.000 That's crazy.

02:08:36.000 You guys, wow, you rock.

02:08:37.000 The way it works is there's 55 boards of various sizes, and then there's 55 graphics.

02:08:45.000 And so the graphics can be applied to any board.

02:08:48.000 And we told them to fill them out as they see fit.

02:08:54.000 So we don't choose.

02:08:56.000 When you buy a board, it goes right to the manufacturer, and then they decide randomly or somehow to apply the graphic to the board.

02:09:03.000 Some of them will be golden with a serial number.

02:09:06.000 blank out of five.

02:09:08.000 For the next series we're going to do, we figured out it's so the reason why we did blank out of five is because they're going to handwrite with gold the numbers.

02:09:17.000 What if I change my name to give me gold board?

02:09:22.000 Will I be more likely to get a gold board?

02:09:24.000 I don't think so because I think it's by order number.

02:09:25.000 It'll be like 132965.

02:09:27.000 I was looking for a way to game the system.

02:09:29.000 I am.

02:09:29.000 Yeah.

02:09:30.000 But the next boards, we're going to hard print individual graphics.

02:09:33.000 So the thing is, when you print out a graphic, you're supposed to buy a lot.

02:09:38.000 They expect you to buy hundreds.

02:09:40.000 Keeps the costs low.

02:09:41.000 Correct.

02:09:42.000 When you purchase a single print, it's like $12 or something, which makes the board cost like $45 to $50.

02:09:48.000 Got it.

02:09:49.000 But if you, for obvious reasons, the more you buy cheaper it gets.

02:09:52.000 But what we're going to do for the next run, we're working on the next graphic set.

02:09:57.000 It's going to be, I think, weapons themed.

02:10:00.000 And we're going to hard print 1, 5, 2, 5, 3, 5, 4, 5, and 5, 5.

02:10:04.000 We're also doing that because the other thing we need to consider is the potential for people to try and rip these off and stuff like that, which is difficult.

02:10:14.000 They might.

02:10:15.000 I'm not saying I think these things are going to be worth a ridiculous amount of money or anything like that.

02:10:18.000 We just wanted to make – I'll put it like this.

02:10:21.000 We know these boards are wall pieces for the most part.

02:10:24.000 People who are super into skateboarding will skate a spoon.

02:10:28.000 Like we had a pro here, and he was on a spoon-shaped skateboard that he was riding of ours because he thought it was funny.

02:10:33.000 So pros, just give them a blank board. 0.53

02:10:35.000 That's why we have the cheaper models.

02:10:35.000 I don't care what's on it.

02:10:37.000 The $50 ones, B Gay, Don't Be Gay, uncancelable. 1.00

02:10:39.000 Those are the team boards.

02:10:41.000 And, you know, they're the ones we're just, we're selling these at 40 because we're just, oh, look at that.

02:10:45.000 Richie sold out already.

02:10:46.000 Wow. 0.98

02:10:47.000 Holy crap. 1.00

02:10:47.000 Wow. 1.00

02:10:48.000 Amazing.

02:10:49.000 It's time for these to move on.

02:10:51.000 They've been here for like a year or longer, and so we're going to move them all out.

02:10:53.000 Step on Sneck and Find Out will be gone.

02:10:56.000 Boobies will be gone.

02:10:58.000 And I know those are big favorites.

02:10:59.000 So is Right to Bear Arms.

02:11:00.000 I'm sorry, to Arm Bears.

02:11:02.000 That's Sam's pro model, and Sam's no longer working here, so we're not going to bring that back ever.

02:11:05.000 Right to Arm Bears will be gone forever.

02:11:08.000 That's his.

02:11:09.000 And then Step on Sneck and Boobies will get a, well, actually, Boobies is also Sam's, but we are planning on doing an animal theme with a blue-footed booby, which is slightly different for Arm Bears.

02:11:21.000 Step on Snack and Find Out will get a new edition.

02:11:24.000 When we launch that one, it's probably going to be a redesign in a similar way, but different.

02:11:30.000 And this will be probably in a few months.

02:11:32.000 We're probably going to do a couple hundred of them and have maybe like 20 golden serialized.

02:11:36.000 The reason why Step on Snec has been the biggest seller, period, for us, although it's fallen in popularity.

02:11:41.000 We'll revive it.

02:11:42.000 So anyway, that's what we're looking at.

02:11:45.000 In the meantime, we can talk about this.

02:11:47.000 This guy put a bounty on Pam Bondi.

02:11:49.000 He made a picture of her.

02:11:50.000 It said wanted dead or alive, $45,000 and said, preferably dead.

02:11:56.000 Here's the thing.

02:11:57.000 I don't think this guy was serious.

02:11:59.000 He then commented cough cough. 0.98

02:12:01.000 I think he's half serious, like he really wants her dead.

02:12:04.000 I don't think he thought what he was posting was legitimately a bounty, like he actually has 45 grand, but it don't matter.

02:12:11.000 And that's the point.

02:12:12.000 You cannot tell someone you will pay them to murder someone else, anyone else, and then not go to prison.
