Transcript

00:02:56.000 House Oversight Committee Chair Rep Comer is threatening Hillary and Bill Clinton with criminal charges for refusing to answer subpoenas related to the Epstein case.
00:03:09.000 And wow, am I absolutely expecting nothing to happen?
00:03:13.000 And it's a slow news day where the only thing anyone's talking about is Epstein.
00:03:16.000 And we actually have a Democrat delegate caught colluding with Epstein to go after Trump, and the Democrats are defending it.
00:03:24.000 So I couldn't tell you why Trump all of a sudden wants the Epstein files released after saying they were bunk.
00:03:29.000 And then before that, saying we'd release them, and then he gets elected and says they're bunk, but now he wants to release them.
00:03:34.000 I got no idea what's going on.
00:03:35.000 Other than I go to these mainstream media websites, I go to their front page, and I'm like, what's the news today?
00:03:40.000 And they have like 80 articles about Epstein.
00:03:42.000 Nothing substantive.
00:03:44.000 And that's why I'm like, so what's everybody talking about?
00:03:47.000 What's a trending thing?
00:03:48.000 Well, they're threatening Bill and Hillary Clinton with prison.
00:03:50.000 Okay, to be fair, they did this to Bannon and Navarro.
00:03:55.000 And so if the Republicans actually grow some, if you know what I mean, they might actually say contempt of Congress.
00:04:01.000 We'll see iData.
00:04:02.000 But there is a big story in this Democrat Plaskett who was caught colluding with Epstein.
00:04:07.000 She's now admitted to it, defended it, and is saying, well, no one really knew what he was doing at the time in 2019 when literally everybody knew what he was doing.
00:04:16.000 He was sued, already criminally charged, and was a registered sex offender.
00:04:20.000 It's fascinating that the Democrats tried to go after Trump on the Epstein stuff.
00:04:24.000 I don't understand.
00:04:25.000 Did they not think at least one move ahead?
00:04:28.000 I'd love to play them in chess for money.
00:04:30.000 So we'll talk about that and a whole lot more, a bunch of stories.
00:04:32.000 Big winter storm apparently is going to come.
00:04:34.000 That's important news for everybody at home.
00:04:36.000 We'll talk about snow, I guess.
00:04:38.000 Before we get started, my friends, we've got some great sponsors for you.
00:04:40.000 We got joincrowdhealth.com.
00:04:44.000 It's open enrollment, the season where health insurance companies hope you'll blindly sign up again for overpriced premiums and confusing fine print.
00:04:50.000 Don't just take someone else's word.
00:04:52.000 Trust yourself and take control of your future with CrowdHealth, the healthcare alternative for people who make their own decisions.
00:04:58.000 It's healthcare for under $100.
00:05:00.000 You get access to a team of health bill negotiators, low-cost prescription and lab testing tools, as well as a database of low-cost, high-quality doctors vetted by CrowdHealth.
00:05:08.000 And what if something major happens?
00:05:10.000 You pay the first 500 bucks, then the crowd steps in to help fund the rest.
00:05:14.000 It feels like the options we used to have before Obamacare messed everything up.
00:05:18.000 And of course, you'll join the crowd, a group of members just like you who want to help pay for each other's unexpected medical events.
00:05:24.000 The system is betting you will stay stuck in the same overpriced, over-complicated mess.
00:05:29.000 And this year, it's even more complicated because most of the ACA subsidies expire, which means your prices are going sky high.
00:05:36.000 So far, CrowdHealth members have saved over $40 million in healthcare expenses because they refuse to overpay for healthcare.

00:07:12.000 I'm a comedian.
00:07:14.000 I have a lot to say about politics and I like to share my perspectives through the language of comedy.
00:07:20.000 So I do multiple sketches a week.
00:07:24.000 Don't even know the schedule.
00:07:25.000 It's a lot.
00:07:26.000 Right on.
00:07:27.000 Should be fun.
00:07:27.000 Thanks for hanging out.
00:07:28.000 We got race car driver extraordinaire, Cody Dennison.
00:07:31.000 Audio.
00:07:32.000 Who are you?
00:07:33.000 What do you do?
00:07:34.000 No, I just explained it.
00:07:35.000 Tell us.
00:07:36.000 I struggle to go in circles, which you would think would be way easier, but I found it's a lot harder than I expected.
00:07:43.000 You're better at turning left than anyone here.
00:07:46.000 Well, that's damn sure.
00:07:47.000 Whoa.
00:07:48.000 I don't know.
00:07:48.000 We were upstairs earlier.
00:07:49.000 I don't know.
00:07:50.000 I was teaching Cody the ropes because we got NASCAR 25.
00:07:53.000 Yeah.
00:07:54.000 And I was trying to explain to him what you do is you just, when you're drive, when you're about to pass somebody, you nudge them so they spin out of control and crash.
00:08:01.000 And I'm sitting here like, how did I figure this out before you?
00:08:04.000 Yeah, dude, it's wild.
00:08:05.000 Yeah, I was, I've not even won a race in the game yet.
00:08:09.000 You were just winning over and over.
00:08:10.000 And I'm like, maybe there's something to this, but I'm the kind of guy that when I'm playing like Elder Scrolls Oblivion, I can't choose the mean option.
00:08:17.000 It just, it hurts my feelings for the NPC.
00:08:20.000 The NPCs, you want to let them win because they're your friends.
00:08:23.000 It's like, you know how it has an option where it's like, you know, get out of here, you fool.
00:08:27.000 I'm just like, no, you can come with me and I'll save you.
00:08:30.000 We need Cody to program the AI.
00:08:32.000 That's what he said.
00:08:34.000 That way the AI will never be mean.
00:08:35.000 It'll always do nice things.
00:08:36.000 It's so kind.
00:08:37.000 I can't help it, dude.
00:08:38.000 No matter what playthrough on any game, I just can't hurt anybody.
00:08:41.000 I'm weird.
00:08:42.000 Well, it should be fun.
00:08:43.000 Thanks for hanging out.
00:08:43.000 Brett is here.
00:08:44.000 Better at turning left.
00:08:45.000 That means you're like the opposite of Zoolander.
00:08:48.000 Yes.
00:08:49.000 That is a pop culture reference from a long time ago.
00:08:51.000 If you don't know who I am, Brits, Brett, guys, pop culture crisis.
00:08:54.000 Monday through Friday, 3 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, which is, of course, noon Pacific.
00:08:57.000 How are you doing, Phil?
00:08:58.000 I'm doing quite well.
00:08:59.000 Hello, everybody.
00:09:00.000 My name is Phil Labonte.
00:09:01.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal and all that remains.
00:09:02.000 I'm an anti-communist and counter-revolutionary.
00:09:05.000 And I am equally proficient at turning left and right, but not nearly as good as Cody Clinton.
00:09:09.000 Have you been watching Pluribus?
00:09:11.000 Oh, come on.
00:09:12.000 How do you even know?
00:09:13.000 I want to talk about that show again.
00:09:15.000 Apple TV is for people who get shoved into lockers.
00:09:18.000 Well, but Pluribus is basically a show about AI, and it feels like they're trying to convince you AI takeover is a good thing.
00:09:24.000 So, but we'll talk about that.
00:09:26.000 Let's first start with this story from Newsweek: Bill and Hillary Clinton risk prison over Epstein's silence.
00:09:32.000 They risk it.
00:09:33.000 No Republicans got the chutzpah to actually do it.
00:09:36.000 So I don't even know why Newsweek is writing about it, but they put it on the front page of their website because they expect it to get clicks.
00:09:42.000 House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer said on Tuesday that former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could face criminal exposure related to newly surfaced Jeffrey Epstein documents.
00:09:51.000 Quote, we expect to hear from Bill and Hillary Clinton.
00:09:55.000 Comer said on Just the News, No Noise, Donald Trump answered questions for years about Jeffrey Epstein.
00:09:59.000 Every day he gets asked questions about Epstein, and he answers them in front of the American people.
00:10:03.000 We've subpoenaed Republicans and Democrats.
00:10:05.000 They go on to say the DOJ said Friday it's examining Epstein's purported connections to high-profile Democrats, among them Bill Clinton.
00:10:11.000 As part of the investigation, Comer issued subpoenas to the Clintons and eight other individuals that followed the release by Congress last week of more than 20,000 pages of documents.
00:10:20.000 A batch of newly released correspondence includes messages involving Trump, among them an email from Epstein's brother Mark, referring to photos of Trump, quote, blowing Bubba.
00:10:29.000 While Bubba is a nickname of Clinton, Clinton.
00:10:32.000 Mark Epstein told Newsweek that the individual was not the former president.
00:10:35.000 He described the exchanges as a lighthearted banter between siblings and said they were never intended to be made public or interpreted literally.
00:10:42.000 Or Trump and Bill Clinton were more than friends.
00:10:46.000 That proves it.
00:10:48.000 Is this why Trump didn't want the Epstein files?
00:10:50.000 All the evidence I need.
00:10:51.000 He goes like Pam Bondi's like, Mr. President, there's literally nothing in here that's incriminating at all.
00:10:56.000 And he's like, okay, well, we should release him.
00:10:58.000 But there is an email claiming you blew Bill Clinton.
00:11:01.000 Wait a minute, what?
00:11:02.000 We can't release this.
00:11:03.000 No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:11:04.000 That's not coming out.
00:11:05.000 It's not illegal.
00:11:06.000 I mean, think about how much power he would gain over everybody and went over the left if he just came out there and was like, it's a presidential one.
00:11:15.000 I had to do it.
00:11:16.000 I had to do it.
00:11:17.000 It was right in front of me.
00:11:18.000 Everybody else done it.
00:11:19.000 Every president, it's the hazing machine for all presidents.
00:11:21.000 And then everybody would be like, oh, wow.
00:11:23.000 He's great.
00:11:24.000 Every president has to service every other living president as they enter office.
00:11:28.000 It's like the picture of Bill Clinton when he's at the desk and it says, little do you know there's two people in this photo?
00:11:33.000 It was actually Trump.
00:11:35.000 It wasn't Monica Lewinsky.
00:11:37.000 I was just going to say, personally, I am shocked to hear the Clintons mentioned in association with Epstein.
00:11:47.000 But also, to me, the most optimistic part of this article, somewhere in it says Newsweek reached out to the Clintons for comment, but no comment was returned.
00:11:55.000 That's good.
00:11:56.000 You know, I would have expected Newsweek to say, yeah, we reached out to Clintons for comment, but our reporter wound up hanging themselves in a tree, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
00:12:06.000 Two of them.
00:12:07.000 Gun found 30 feet away.
00:12:09.000 It's suicide.
00:12:10.000 Sorry to see the reporter coming in.
00:12:12.000 Kudos to the reporters for actually reaching out in the first place.
00:12:14.000 That's a dangerous thing.
00:12:15.000 It's very courageous.
00:12:16.000 Imagine being able to do that.
00:12:17.000 They did the thing where they reach out at like the last exact moment at like 11:59 p.m. and they got a turn-in copy by midnight.
00:12:24.000 They're like, I asked.
00:12:25.000 They send it back to me.
00:12:26.000 It was an anonymous email from someone who started their own Yahoo account so they could send it to the Clintons.
00:12:32.000 Dude, imagine being that one reporter and you're like sitting there, your cubicle alone and every sweating.
00:12:38.000 The boss walks up to you and he's like, slides it towards your desk.
00:12:41.000 They drew straws.
00:12:42.000 Everybody's watching, like shaking.
00:12:44.000 It's like, it's your time, Rodrigo.
00:12:48.000 He said, so we expect the Clintons to come in, or I expect the Clintons to be met with the same fate that Bannon and Navarro were met with when the Democrats were in control.
00:12:48.000 Here's what he said.
00:12:56.000 House Democrats sought criminal charges against Bannon, and we know this about Navarro as well.
00:13:00.000 And actually, they both went to prison.
00:13:03.000 You know, if the Republicans actually made some moves and arrested Bill and Hillary Clinton, and it was like for four months, I would feel pretty good, but I don't know if it's satisfactory enough.
00:13:19.000 I mean, they're both old and out of the picture at this point.
00:13:21.000 Is it just throwing some rotted red meat at the base to be like, oh, we're going to do something to the Clintons?
00:13:27.000 They're not going to do anything.
00:13:27.000 I mean, just for comedy, just because it would be hilarious to see the Clintons actually facing some kind of repercussions for something they did, I think it would be funny.
00:13:37.000 It would make people feel a little good.
00:13:39.000 And then I wouldn't wake up in a sweat at 3 a.m. every night like I do right now.
00:13:44.000 I know Hillary Clinton.
00:13:45.000 She exists.
00:13:46.000 And I think if Hillary was in prison for a few months, Netflix could do a reality women's prison show.
00:13:46.000 Yeah.
00:13:53.000 That would be great.
00:13:54.000 You got to imagine Hillary's going to be the boss running the prison just within three minutes.
00:14:00.000 Yeah.
00:14:01.000 Intimidating everybody.
00:14:02.000 You know, I would like to see if so, you know, that scene from Watchmen where Rorschach is in line?
00:14:06.000 You know, this is what I'm talking about.
00:14:08.000 But like, it's Hillary.
00:14:09.000 Hillary, you're all, you're not.
00:14:10.000 The woman's like, I heard, you know, and then Hillary grabs the thing and splashes the lady with you.
00:14:17.000 Yeah.
00:14:17.000 Boiling oil.
00:14:20.000 Or, I mean, to be completely honest, she gets into prison and immediately it's like, okay, boss, like, she's already the boss of these people.
00:14:27.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:14:28.000 It's going to be like those old mob movies where they had like their own rooms and chefs and they had pulled tables and cards and drugs and stuff.
00:14:34.000 I mean, I got to be honest, if Hillary Clinton and Bill went to prison outside, everybody would be cheering as they go in, you know, hands cuffed, and Hillary is like, I'll get you for this Trump.
00:14:46.000 And then as soon as the door closed, they uncover.
00:14:47.000 Sorry, man, the hander closed.
00:14:49.000 And then like, right, this way, there's like a luxury suite.
00:14:51.000 Yeah, the real way to take them down would be to go after their assets, would be to go after, is the Clinton Foundation even still?
00:14:57.000 It's no, it's not.
00:14:59.000 They're 300 years old.
00:15:00.000 So it's fine to say we want answers from the Clintons on this stuff, but they're like 300 years old.
00:15:06.000 You know, like, can we just, this is, I suppose we should say, of course, we want answers from the Clintons, but at a certain point, they're so old and it's so 10 years ago.
00:15:19.000 Are there more pressing issues to focus on right now?
00:15:21.000 Like Gen Z. How old are they?
00:15:24.000 Like 900.
00:15:25.000 They're not 900.
00:15:26.000 They're like, what, in their 70s?
00:15:28.000 Just put Jen's.
00:15:29.000 Oh, we have the internet.
00:15:31.000 In the 70s, you know, theoretically, they could live to be Jimmy Carter age.
00:15:35.000 So, you know, you get inferred.
00:15:36.000 When is 78 years old?
00:15:39.000 79.
00:15:40.000 Wow.
00:15:40.000 Yeah.
00:15:41.000 Who went to prison for the rest of their lives?
00:15:43.000 That could theoretically be like 20 years if they were if they ended up like they're at life expectancy.
00:15:48.000 So, theoretically, we'll give them a certain sentence and then just put their kids in afterwards.
00:15:54.000 If you get 20 years, and if you don't make it, the remaining years go to your daughter.
00:15:58.000 It's the crime family.
00:15:59.000 Let's go.
00:16:01.000 She's like, No, but if I get exonerated, you have to listen to Chelsea Clinton's podcast for the rest of your life.
00:16:06.000 Does she have a podcast?
00:16:07.000 Yes, she does.
00:16:07.000 I think she does.
00:16:08.000 Yeah, I'm sure it's crushing it.
00:16:10.000 I mean, her and Michelle Obama, just people care what they have to say.
00:16:16.000 Um, it's called That Can't Be True with Chelsea Clinton, and uh, it's like one guy who comes up with all the fans for every podcast.
00:16:26.000 I imagine they named her podcast after like their response to all the allegations against the Clinton family.
00:16:33.000 That can't be true.
00:16:34.000 Wait, hold on.
00:16:35.000 That would be a good name for a podcast.
00:16:36.000 I can't be the safest answer.
00:16:38.000 She had a podcast called In Fact with Chelsea Clinton in 2022.
00:16:42.000 I guess that's gone.
00:16:44.000 How many has 300 reviews and it got four stars?
00:16:47.000 What was her first one?
00:16:48.000 And she's got that can't be true with Chelsea Clinton.
00:16:51.000 And this one is ongoing.
00:16:54.000 This is the new one, That Can't Be True, funded by the Clinton Foundation.
00:16:58.000 She should start a true crime podcast called The Clinton Crime Test.
00:17:02.000 The views that thing would get would be astronomical.
00:17:05.000 Yeah, women like Chelsea Clinton and they like True Crime.
00:17:08.000 So, I imagine it would be one of the most popular podcasts on Apple Podcasts immediately.
00:17:14.000 So, wait, you have to go to the Clinton Foundation YouTube.
00:17:17.000 They have 12,000 subscribers.
00:17:19.000 I mean, this is the thing.
00:17:20.000 At what point are we like, I wish we got answers on the Clintons, but they're so old out of the picture.
00:17:25.000 Are we just spinning our wheels?
00:17:26.000 Well, I think they're probably the biggest name that's been named or allegedly involved with Epstein.
00:17:33.000 So, I think people want to see that because they're the biggest name, but I don't think they're the most relevant.
00:17:39.000 Like, Bill probably wasn't in there running the operation, and Epstein's working for him.
00:17:44.000 He's potentially a client, but I think there's bigger fish to fry when we're looking at getting justice on the crimes that happened.
00:17:53.000 When you did the, I was talking to you before the show, I mentioned that you did a video on Epstein, and it was like it had to be like 2020, and it's one of my favorites.
00:18:00.000 Like, I still can still quote parts of it, and in the background, you had like a big thing that said Clinton body count, and I think it was at 50 at the time.
00:18:06.000 Yeah, no, what's interesting?
00:18:07.000 That video came out in, I think, February of 2020, so right before COVID.
00:18:12.000 And back then, YouTube was censoring talk about Epstein.
00:18:16.000 Like, that video got something done to it.
00:18:19.000 Some other stuff I did on Epstein, that was just nuts.
00:18:22.000 Like, okay, big tech is censoring opinions on Epstein.
00:18:26.000 That's interesting.
00:18:28.000 Well, I mean, big tech was censoring basically anything that the Democrats told them to censor at the time.
00:18:32.000 Oh, allegedly.
00:18:34.000 COVID opened everyone's eyes, especially just normal people.
00:18:37.000 Like, you have these niche groups of people that are in entertainment, or maybe they hold different opinions than which would normally be accepted in certain levels of entertainment.
00:18:37.000 Yeah.
00:18:46.000 And all of a sudden, you know, everybody was finding out you couldn't even say it on Facebook.
00:18:51.000 I mean, normal people would say something on Facebook and get censored for 24 hours and get muted.
00:18:56.000 So all these normal people started seeing this and they're like, wait, something strange is going, you know, going on.
00:19:02.000 Yeah, I think that it was that this is something that we said around the table before.
00:19:07.000 Even though overall COVID was a terrible thing, like the way the government behaved and stuff, it really did open so many people's eyes to how deceptive the government is.
00:19:17.000 And that's kind of a double-edged sword because there are people out there now where the default opinion is, of course, the government's lying.
00:19:24.000 If the government said it, it can't be true.
00:19:26.000 And that isn't really productive at all.
00:19:29.000 There are a lot of people that are just like, look, man, they got me when it came to COVID.
00:19:34.000 I bought that.
00:19:35.000 And now I won't get, you know, bamboozled again.
00:19:38.000 So anything they say, they have to be lying.
00:19:41.000 If the government says it has to be lying.
00:19:42.000 And I feel like that doesn't work functionally.
00:19:47.000 I'm in that camp, Phil, and I like it there.
00:19:52.000 You don't have to think just automatically.
00:19:54.000 They're lying.
00:19:55.000 They said gravity's real.
00:19:55.000 Yeah.
00:19:57.000 Is there an example you can think of of something that like you've seen people saying, like, this is clearly untrue?
00:20:02.000 And you're like, hold your horses.
00:20:06.000 You're dad now, so you can say hold your horses.
00:20:06.000 Not off the top.
00:20:08.000 Yeah, I can say hold your horses.
00:20:10.000 Not off the top of my head.
00:20:12.000 Mostly, it's the thing that at least strikes me the most is the attitude that people have.
00:20:18.000 Like, so if you'll say something, people think that now because they are skeptical of everything, that they're somehow like enlightened in some way, and they're just like, oh, and it's more of a, you know, like, you're so dumb, and I'm so smart because I don't believe this, or you believe, you must believe that.
00:20:36.000 So you're dumb.
00:20:37.000 It's more the attitude that I notice more so than any particular topic or issue.
00:20:42.000 I agree with you.
00:20:43.000 To me, it's, you know, they probably call themselves a free thinker, but if their automatic default is a position of defiance relative to what a government official says, there's no thinking involved.
00:20:55.000 Perma bears are right sometimes, right?
00:20:58.000 If you're constantly saying the market's going to crash, the market's going to crash, the market's going to crash, and you're saying it for 10 years.
00:21:04.000 When the market crashes, it's not that you were like had some kind of great insight.
00:21:08.000 It's that you've been saying the market's going to crash.
00:21:11.000 And so when it finally does, eventually, you know, the clocks, even a broken clock's right twice a day.
00:21:16.000 Let's jump to the story from CNN.
00:21:17.000 This, you know, this should be one of the biggest stories of our generation.
00:21:22.000 And it is a Democrat caught colluding with Epstein when he was well known to have been a sex offender, trafficking minors.
00:21:33.000 This Democrat says, but he was a constituent.
00:21:35.000 He was texting with her, telling her what to ask Michael Cohen.
00:21:39.000 And they used this to go after Trump under these false criminal charges.
00:21:44.000 Democrats are now trying to pin the whole Epstein thing on Trump.
00:21:48.000 Trump's saying it's a hoax.
00:21:49.000 I have no idea what's going on behind the scenes.
00:21:52.000 But what I will say is: be it seasonal, be it fatigue, be it just an off year, people are pretty detached from politics right now.
00:22:02.000 And based on this story not getting nearly as much attention as it is, maybe I don't have to be worried just because it's an off-cycle year and people don't really pay attention.
00:22:12.000 But I can't believe this is not a front page headline, extra, extra scandal.
00:22:17.000 Let me show you.
00:22:18.000 So there's two components to the scandal: a failed effort to censure Democrats over texts with Epstein.
00:22:26.000 More importantly, that some Republicans cut a backroom deal with the Democrats to protect this woman who colluded with Jeffrey Epstein.
00:22:37.000 It is shocking.
00:22:38.000 It should be disqualifying for all the Republicans involved.
00:22:42.000 And every Democrat voted to protect her.
00:22:45.000 I'm going to stress this.
00:22:46.000 During a hearing, this is Stacey Plaskett from the Virgin Islands.
00:22:50.000 She, quote, represented Jeffrey Epstein.
00:22:53.000 He texted her about specific names to ask about because Epstein knew about Trump's inner workings to a certain degree, and she did not.
00:23:00.000 And she was using this information to smear Donald Trump.
00:23:03.000 Fascinating.
00:23:04.000 Epstein hated Trump.
00:23:06.000 And Democrats are trying to act like they were friends.
00:23:08.000 But no, actually, now the emails release prove he did not like Trump at all.
00:23:12.000 And they were working with him the whole time.
00:23:14.000 Listen to this.
00:23:16.000 And I got a text from Jeffrey Epstein, who at the time was my constituent, who was not public knowledge at that time that he was under federal investigation.
00:23:30.000 See what you just did right there?
00:23:31.000 He was not in federal.
00:23:33.000 This was February, I believe it was February 27th.
00:23:35.000 It was February of 2019.
00:23:38.000 The Miami Herald story broke in 2018.
00:23:42.000 The investigation of which these issues were going on for a long time.
00:23:45.000 And Jeffrey Epstein had already served time for soliciting a minor for prostitution and got a sweetheart deal.
00:23:53.000 There are some speculating that she was in the pocket of Epstein, that he she worked for him, that she was the delegate because he put the money up to make sure that would happen.
00:24:02.000 And that's why she wasn't just colluding.
00:24:05.000 He was telling her what to do.
00:24:08.000 Now, what's just one last point?
00:24:10.000 They were going to just censure her.
00:24:13.000 That's it.
00:24:15.000 That means they're going to wiggle their finger at her.
00:24:17.000 And they couldn't even do that because I believe it was three Republicans cut a backroom deal to protect a woman working with Epstein.
00:24:25.000 This is insane that they tried to use this against Trump, did it themselves, and then several Republicans defected to protect her.
00:24:33.000 The funny thing is, we were just talking about your default status of not trusting politicians.
00:24:38.000 This is why.
00:24:39.000 Like weasel words used to get yourself out of trouble.
00:24:42.000 This is why people have a default status to just not trust anything a government official says.
00:24:47.000 Because more often than not, you're going to be right.
00:24:50.000 Maybe they're not always lying, but are they always self-interested?
00:24:54.000 Yes, absolutely.
00:24:55.000 And it goes beyond just one party, clearly.
00:24:58.000 This is something where Congress will protect Congress because they're hoping that, well, when I need that vote, they'll vote for me.
00:25:06.000 But in this case, she's not even a voting member, right?
00:25:10.000 It's the Virgin Islands.
00:25:11.000 I don't know that she even gets to vote on Bill.
00:25:14.000 I got a question for you guys.
00:25:16.000 Phil, you're a rock star.
00:25:18.000 When you have issues related to high-profile hearings about former presidents, current presidents, or frontrunners for the presidency, when you text your member of Congress advice, do they usually just agree with it?
00:25:31.000 Do they give you any pushback and say it's not appropriate?
00:25:34.000 They tend not to reply.
00:25:36.000 They tend to ignore me.
00:25:37.000 You actually have their phone numbers.
00:25:38.000 Not their phone numbers.
00:25:40.000 I will send a message to the office and say when you go to this hearing.
00:25:44.000 Texting an actual person.
00:25:45.000 Well, that's strange.
00:25:46.000 I mean, what about the rest of you?
00:25:47.000 When you text your member of Congress, how does a conversation usually go?
00:25:52.000 I get them on WhatsApp.
00:25:53.000 Yeah, well, they don't respond to my texts unless I'm in prison.
00:25:57.000 Then they're all about like, I need this guy's advice.
00:26:00.000 And then they want to hear me.
00:26:02.000 That's probably the go-to.
00:26:03.000 Get your point arrested.
00:26:05.000 And then.
00:26:05.000 The point, of course, is she's saying, he was just my constituent.
00:26:09.000 Ah, yes.
00:26:10.000 I text my member of Congress all.
00:26:10.000 Yeah.
00:26:11.000 Well, to be fair, Riley Moore's a friend of the show.
00:26:13.000 True, true.
00:26:14.000 But the point is weasel words.
00:26:15.000 That's what I'm talking about.
00:26:16.000 Weasel words when she says stuff like this.
00:26:18.000 And this is why people don't trust politicians.
00:26:21.000 Riley replies because he wants to be able to still use the skate park.
00:26:24.000 That's why he actually will reply.
00:26:26.000 Well, he needs to come skate, Riley.
00:26:28.000 Is there any word who the Republican members were that were part of this backdoor deal to protect her?
00:26:35.000 There was a story about it, but like I didn't see.
00:26:37.000 I mean, we could pull the list.
00:26:38.000 It was because I don't get the names.
00:26:41.000 We could pull up the list of names.
00:26:42.000 Tim Burchett's roasting them saying a handful of Republicans took a dive on a vote to strip Stacey Plaskett of her position on House Intel because of her ties to Epstein.
00:26:51.000 They did it to protect a Republican facing his own ethics issues from a similar vote.
00:26:54.000 This backroom deal-ish is swampy, wrong, and always deserved to be called out.
00:26:58.000 This is wild.
00:27:00.000 Nancy Mace called it a backroom deal.
00:27:02.000 Democrats are on TV protecting this woman who was literally taking instruction from Jeffrey Epstein to go after Donald Trump.
00:27:11.000 And three Republicans concerned with rep Corey Mills ethics issues decided to protect Epstein.
00:27:18.000 I got questions.
00:27:19.000 It is crazy that they started framing Donald Trump as bad by using Jeffrey Epstein as like the example of saying like, well, Jeffrey Epstein said he's bad, so he must be bad.
00:27:29.000 Like it takes one bad guy to know another, I suppose.
00:27:32.000 Well, think about that for a moment, right?
00:27:34.000 Because it was Trump's bad because he's best friends with Epstein.
00:27:37.000 Now it's Trump's bad because Epstein hates him.
00:27:40.000 It's like you can't have it both ways, man.
00:27:42.000 And it's even crazier to me that people will try to defend this.
00:27:45.000 And the same people that try to defend this are the people that regularly morally grandstand about how much empathy they have, and they care about everybody, but they've completely ignore the fact that this thing that took place was 11 years after Epstein was charged with child crimes.
00:27:58.000 Yeah.
00:27:59.000 They don't care.
00:28:00.000 They just want the W, man.
00:28:01.000 They just want the win.
00:28:02.000 It's just about a vector of attack.
00:28:04.000 Yeah.
00:28:05.000 They don't like President Trump, so they can go ahead and use, you know, if they can use any, basically anything that they can use to attack him, they're going to use.
00:28:12.000 By the way, at this point, when we look at Epstein's body of work, is it considered anti-Semitic to criticize it?
00:28:20.000 Or are we allowed to do it?
00:28:22.000 It depends on what side of Twitter you're on.
00:28:24.000 Okay.
00:28:24.000 Depends on why you're criticizing him.
00:28:26.000 If you're criticizing him because of him being friendly with Donald Trump, then it's anti-Semitic.
00:28:32.000 If you're criticizing him when he was attacking Donald Trump, well, then no, it's not anti-Semitem.
00:28:35.000 That makes sense.
00:28:37.000 I appreciate those rules.
00:28:38.000 Don Bacon, Lance Gooden, and David Joyce.
00:28:41.000 So that's Nebraska, Texas, and Ohio.
00:28:44.000 And then there were three who voted present: Andrew Garberino, Dan Mauser, and Jay Obernolte.
00:28:52.000 Like that guy who voted not to release the Epstein files.
00:28:55.000 That one dude.
00:28:56.000 One dude.
00:28:57.000 That one guy.
00:28:58.000 That one guy.
00:28:59.000 What was the name?
00:29:01.000 He was from Louisiana.
00:29:03.000 It's like, dude, read the room.
00:29:05.000 Like, realize you're going to be the only one.
00:29:08.000 You're going to stand out.
00:29:10.000 That's like going to a skating ring when you're a kid for a birthday party and you go in and there's no one there.
00:29:16.000 And you're like, it was.
00:29:18.000 This is the right place.
00:29:19.000 It was Clay Higgins, right?
00:29:20.000 Clay Higgins, yeah.
00:29:21.000 Yeah, Clay Higgins.
00:29:22.000 Republican from Louisiana.
00:29:23.000 Voted not to release the Epstein files.
00:29:25.000 I don't know.
00:29:26.000 That guy better have just the.
00:29:28.000 There better be zero skeletons in any closet for that guy, because he's his argument was that it it would, it could harm innocents uh, innocent people.
00:29:38.000 Um, you're sure it wasn't that his constituents would be upset if they released the uh documents with their names in it?
00:29:44.000 I mean possibly.
00:29:46.000 But yeah yeah, and the victims have come out and said that they don't, they don't even mind if their names are redacted or not.
00:29:51.000 There were victims that this is something that I I continue to mention.
00:29:54.000 There were victims two months ago or so, three months ago that said, we, if they don't release the Epstein files, we're gonna get together our own list because we, the victims blah blah, blah.
00:30:03.000 Where's this list?
00:30:04.000 What has prevented them from doing that?
00:30:06.000 So, on that, the question I always have is, like, when Marjorie Taylor Green has all the victims together and they're doing um, you know, talk to the camera thing, you got all the news organizations there, what stops the victims from just naming names?
00:30:23.000 Like they're there on camera, the news isn't gonna like, it's live defamation, like is it literally they're afraid of getting sued by very, very powerful people.
00:30:31.000 The only thing I can think of is they, they fear for their lives.
00:30:34.000 Yeah, I mean, I don't know how you can get sued if you're making an accurate accusation at a child predator, but if there's no proof like unless it's the documents are the only place where proof exists and there's no other proof then you're making a claim.
00:30:48.000 This is gonna set a lot of people on fire, but it's That they don't actually have anything to produce.
00:30:57.000 You know, they're every like it seems to me that a lot of people are like talking about, oh, you know, this person's on the list, that person's on the list, et cetera, et cetera.
00:31:06.000 And it seems like this is more of a threat and a way to basically slime people than any kind of actual legitimate, legitimate, substantial threat.
00:31:20.000 Even Elon Musk said, oh, Donald Trump is on the Epstein list.
00:31:27.000 What does on the list mean?
00:31:28.000 Sure.
00:31:29.000 Does it mean that they have that was a list of people that he was blackmailing?
00:31:35.000 Or is it just the list of people that have been to the island?
00:31:38.000 Well, the term has become amorphous now, right?
00:31:40.000 Like you don't even know what it means.
00:31:42.000 Because one of the things that the media was doing for the last several months before they got onto the current train of thought that they have was anytime documents would come out and somebody's like, I was there.
00:31:51.000 Donald Trump was not there.
00:31:52.000 Like Trump was mentioned in documents, which is just them saying that he wasn't there, which is just a way to frame it and make it a bigger case than it is.
00:31:59.000 That's what it seems like to me.
00:32:01.000 Because nothing has actually materialized that's actionable in any way, it seems like it's just people making threats and using the phrase Epstein list to slime people and to either take heat off themselves or to make accusations that they don't ever have any intent of producing anything substantial there.
00:32:23.000 It also proves how petty Elon Musk is that he made that tweet that long ago and then now they're back hanging out again.
00:32:29.000 Maybe.
00:32:30.000 You know, I mean, I think Elon was emotional during that tweet.
00:32:37.000 Petty and emotional.
00:32:38.000 That was nuts.
00:32:39.000 I would never describe Elon as petty and emotional.
00:32:43.000 No, buying Twitter wasn't petty.
00:32:45.000 I'm kidding.
00:32:48.000 Elon is, if you took a guy, well, if you took a computer nerd and just cranked all of his emotions to 11, I feel like you get Elon.
00:32:57.000 You know, him fighting with Billie Eilish about how he should spend his money.
00:33:02.000 I was like, you don't have to respond, bro.
00:33:04.000 You know, I got to be honest.
00:33:05.000 You know what I think?
00:33:06.000 I think it is.
00:33:07.000 You know what I think it is?
00:33:08.000 It's happening.
00:33:09.000 I think we were under the boot of a deep state for a long time and that the views on social media and the ratings on TV were all fake.
00:33:17.000 I think that Mockingbird probably went crazier than people realized and media was much more controlled than people realized.
00:33:23.000 And the internet kind of broke the machine.
00:33:26.000 Because I've been, you know, right now there's a big behind the scenes for those that are curious in media right now.
00:33:32.000 One of the big concerns is ad rates are way down when they should not be and viewer count is way down when it should not be.
00:33:37.000 And I'm not just talking about politics.
00:33:39.000 People have been highlighting that there are certain sporting events and hobby YouTube where it's like the views seem low right now, which is odd considering it's getting cold.
00:33:52.000 So and we're near the end of the year, which means ad rates should be going up and views should be going up.
00:33:56.000 But we're seeing many people reporting views are down and ad rates are going down along with it.
00:34:01.000 I can't speak to viewers for the most part.
00:34:04.000 They've dipped a little bit.
00:34:05.000 I think for the most part, we've been stable, but ad rates for sure have gone down.
00:34:09.000 I've been talking with a lot of people in media about this phenomenon.
00:34:13.000 What do they think is happening?
00:34:14.000 I think it's largely due to economics and potentially lack of children coming in as older people go out.
00:34:20.000 But part of the conversation is that when we're tracking metrics from other big tech platforms, the one thing we've all started to notice is that they all seem fake.
00:34:31.000 It all seems fake.
00:34:33.000 The numbers are not behaving like humans.
00:34:37.000 We've come to a point right now.
00:34:39.000 I mean, Trump nukes USAID.
00:34:41.000 The slush fund, the slush fund money starts disappearing.
00:34:43.000 All of a sudden, we see a divergence in the behavior and revenue streams and audience totals as if something was artificially creating a track.
00:34:53.000 Something was artificially making sure certain channels got views and money and certain channels didn't get views and money.
00:35:00.000 And now the data seems to be acting strangely and for the season going down.
00:35:06.000 I wonder if, actually, let me put it like this.
00:35:09.000 You may think I am paranoid, but I will remind you of when Elon Musk announced he put a bid in for Twitter before it was X, liberals started bleeding followers.
00:35:20.000 Their follower counts were collapsing and conservatives were skyrocketing.
00:35:23.000 And everyone said, How is that possible?
00:35:25.000 Liberals said, Oh, it's because everyone's fleeing to other platforms.
00:35:28.000 That wasn't true.
00:35:29.000 So, what was happening that made conservatives gain followers?
00:35:33.000 And the response was, oh, people are coming back.
00:35:37.000 No, that doesn't make sense.
00:35:39.000 Millions of people just saw a news report Elon to buy Twitter, maybe.
00:35:44.000 And they said, Guess I'll sign up.
00:35:45.000 I don't think so.
00:35:46.000 No.
00:35:47.000 People following liberals on social media on X or on Twitter at the time said, What?
00:35:52.000 Elon might buy the platform.
00:35:53.000 Better leave right now.
00:35:55.000 The theory was that the U.S. government had some kind of, they had a backdoor into these platforms.
00:36:01.000 That we know is true.
00:36:02.000 And as soon as it became, as soon as it looked like Elon was getting Twitter, they said, quick, burn the evidence, flicked the switch on whatever weird algorithm was propping up these fake numbers, switching everything, collapsing their fake system.
00:36:18.000 My point ultimately is with Elon.
00:36:20.000 The reason I break this up is Elon's a weird dude.
00:36:23.000 He does not behave.
00:36:24.000 CEOs behave.
00:36:26.000 And I think it's because, for the most part, they've always been fake.
00:36:28.000 Everybody knows, you know, Deepwater Horizon happens and then you get the BP guy.
00:36:32.000 We're sorry.
00:36:33.000 You know, I can tell you this.
00:36:35.000 I'd be willing to actually place a wager on the next time there's some kind of disaster.
00:36:40.000 I'll be like, oh, bro, I will write verbatim the speech from the CEO based on the disaster.
00:36:45.000 We know exactly what they're going to say.
00:36:46.000 It's fake.
00:36:47.000 It's plastic.
00:36:47.000 Nobody believes them.
00:36:50.000 Things are changing now.
00:36:51.000 Elon Musk is behaving in very strange ways.
00:36:54.000 It seems like not just with Elon, but with many other facets of our social infrastructure, we're starting to see real people, real numbers, and the machine state that was kind of smoothing things over to create appearances is losing control and kind of disappearing.
00:37:12.000 I mean, Elon is an example of somebody who's made his brand every bit as much about him as the companies that he runs, but that's not necessarily how the rest of the Fortune 500.
00:37:21.000 I read so much about like David Zazlav and David Ellison and all of these CEOs in the entertainment companies, and they all talk the exact same thing.
00:37:28.000 We're not talking in absolute cheese.
00:37:30.000 I'm not claiming that the old world ceased to exist.
00:37:33.000 I'm saying that the machine state that smoothed things over is waning and we are starting to see emergence of real people, real numbers, real metrics, and it defies our expectation because we have lived in a bot dead internet forever.
00:37:45.000 That is, my theory is, and maybe I'll speak a little bit more on the uncensored portion of the show to avoid potential litigation, but I will keep it somewhat vague that there are prominent social media platforms whose numbers don't make sense and don't track onto other platforms, implying they are using bots.
00:38:03.000 And as we've already pointed out numerous times in the past, it is a fact that prominent social media sites use bots to prop up viewer count.
00:38:12.000 I'll give you an example.
00:38:13.000 It is known that the CEO, the co-founders of Reddit, when they first launched the site, created fake accounts, sock puppets, to interact with users so they would believe there was real engagement on the platform.
00:38:25.000 They faked it.
00:38:26.000 This has been the case for many big social media platforms.
00:38:30.000 I think what's happening now with, you know, people have complained, like, why are my views down?
00:38:34.000 When Elon bought Twitter, they were like, my views are down now.
00:38:37.000 And it's like, maybe because they were never there in the first place.
00:38:40.000 And what was happening was there was a machine state that said, if someone says something that's anti-Trump, pump it up.
00:38:48.000 If someone says something that is pro-Trump, drop it down.
00:38:52.000 Elon comes in and they're like, quick, run for the hills.
00:38:55.000 And now people are going, why are my numbers different?
00:38:57.000 Why are my subscriber growth different?
00:38:59.000 And yeah, and there's no question the big tech companies.
00:39:04.000 you know, Twitter before Elon and Zuckerberg, YouTube, they've all had a political agenda that's just so obvious.
00:39:13.000 You look at the Twitter files, the Biden administration instructing them on who and what to censor.
00:39:20.000 It would make sense.
00:39:21.000 Not only are they like censoring conservatives, but doing the fake optics to make their side who supports their agenda, fake optics, make them look, you know, more popular, which then helps them gain more popularity.
00:39:39.000 So to me, what you're saying, theoretically, it makes sense.
00:39:43.000 Yeah, I remember prior to Elon Musk, you know, getting Twitter and switching it to X, I remember I would log in and my feed would just, every single profile picture was just a politician with their little tie on and it was a statement and it had 100,000 likes and no engagement.
00:39:58.000 And I remember everything I was seeing, I would have to pretty much mute things like that because it would be my entire feed, my entire feed.
00:40:05.000 And then you have this, like Tim said, this machine kind of collapsing.
00:40:09.000 And then at the same time, in my opinion, you have people trying to gravitate, especially after COVID, like what me and Phil were talking about, after seeing all the fakeness and all of what I call corpo speak, you see people gravitating towards real people that have real emotions and real react, you know, real reactions to things.
00:40:28.000 And they don't try to hide these things.
00:40:29.000 And yeah, it can be a little coarse sometimes, but people want realness and they're tired of hearing the, oh, we're sorry you feel that way.
00:40:36.000 I had a, I've been in a spat with YouTube the past two days because they started charging me every day.
00:40:43.000 Is it actually like they're charging you like you will get like less money?
00:40:47.000 Yeah.
00:40:48.000 So, you know, my revenue was supposed to be like a couple thousand dollars and I checked it and it was pretty much zero.
00:40:54.000 And I was like, what's going on?
00:40:55.000 And it was just, I've never had a negative day in seven years on YouTube.
00:40:58.000 And it was like negative 200, negative 98, negative 140.
00:41:02.000 And I was like, oh my gosh, this is at the end of my life.
00:41:04.000 It's over.
00:41:04.000 And I, you know, YouTube keeps telling me to talk to, you know, the customer support.
00:41:09.000 And they're just like, they don't even know what I'm talking about.
00:41:11.000 They don't even know what I'm referring to.
00:41:12.000 Right.
00:41:13.000 And, you know, YouTube finally emailed me after it was trending all day today.
00:41:17.000 But yeah, it's pretty devastating watching your revenue go down.
00:41:21.000 And that's the thing is people are tired.
00:41:22.000 You have to watch it go down.
00:41:23.000 It's another thing to be like, you owe us money.
00:41:25.000 That was like negative.
00:41:26.000 And I was like, your ad sense is terrible.
00:41:26.000 It was like negative.
00:41:29.000 Cody, you are like, you're costing us money.
00:41:33.000 But my average view duration is negative 30 seconds.
00:41:38.000 You could make the argument that if what you were looking at before was bots and a corporate structure that was designed to make everything look more popular than it was, then you had a bunch of neoliberal company owners or even leftist company owners who then, once that was kind of pulled apart when Elon bought X and they had to pivot, now they're all like, you know what?
00:41:59.000 We're kind of free.
00:42:00.000 I'm kind of a free speech advocate myself over here at Meta and Mark Zuckerberg starts doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and pretending like he's human.
00:42:09.000 Like we're at a point now where they're trying to actually manufacture authenticity where it's not even really there.
00:42:14.000 That's a good idea.
00:42:15.000 And be real, the conservatives fell for it.
00:42:16.000 They're like, I like that Mark Zuckerberg guy now because he kind of acting like a real person.
00:42:22.000 He is the most spineless person I've ever met.
00:42:26.000 I would have more respect for the guy if once Trump took office, he still stood for censorship.
00:42:33.000 Like, yeah, this is like, I don't agree with that, but if he authentically believed it, I can respect a guy who stands for what he believes in.
00:42:42.000 But as soon as Trump takes office, he's just like so spineless.
00:42:46.000 Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we should definitely, you know, have free speech and open this up.
00:42:51.000 It's like, you believe in nothing.
00:42:54.000 That was his guy.
00:42:55.000 That was his kind of stance like back in the day, right?
00:42:58.000 He thought he would come across as a libertarian kind of minded dude.
00:43:02.000 And before supposedly Jack Dorsey as well.
00:43:04.000 Yeah.
00:43:05.000 And actually, Jack Dorsey, like when he sold Blue Sky because Blue Sky became what it is, and he's like, I can't.
00:43:12.000 He's just like, I can't with these people.
00:43:14.000 So he brought Vine back instead.
00:43:15.000 Yeah.
00:43:16.000 And not to say that I think that he's particularly principled or anything like that, but I do think that the pressure from the government, like when the government says, hey, we need you to do this, even just making the remark, we want you to do this, that everybody feels like it's a threat.
00:43:34.000 If you get a letter from the IRS, everybody's like, oh, sure, it would be a shame if he got audited.
00:43:41.000 Yeah, just, I mean, it's like if the eye of Sauron looks at you, you start sweating.
00:43:45.000 And that's really kind of what the government is.
00:43:47.000 So not that I'm saying that, not that I'm, you know, making excuses or whatever, but it is understandable to be Mark Zuckerberg with one of the biggest companies in the world.
00:43:56.000 And then the federal government's like, hey, maybe you should help us out.
00:43:59.000 And obviously he got wrapped up and allowed them to do things that he shouldn't have.
00:44:05.000 And it is good that he said, okay, you know, wait a minute, maybe we shouldn't do this.
00:44:09.000 He should have stood on principle earlier and not let them do that.
00:44:13.000 But I do understand how, you know, the government saying, hey, we want you to do this, what that kind of does to basically anybody.
00:44:21.000 I would probably cave.
00:44:22.000 We got big news from Donald Trump.
00:44:25.000 He has signed the Epstein release.
00:44:27.000 It's happening.
00:44:28.000 There's going to be nothing in it.
00:44:29.000 We'll be bored.
00:44:30.000 And I'm bored now.
00:44:31.000 But Donald Trump has truthed.
00:44:33.000 He truthed a lot.
00:44:34.000 It's long.
00:44:37.000 Jeffrey Epstein, who was charged by the Trump Justice Department in 2019, not the Democrats, was a lifelong Democrat, donated thousands of dollars to Democrat politicians and was deeply associated with many well-known Democrat figures, such as Bill Clinton, who traveled on his plane 26 times, Larry Summers, who just resigned from many boards, including Harvard.
00:44:57.000 Sleazebag political activist Reid Hoffman, minority leader Hakeem Jeffries, who asked Epstein to donate to his campaign after Epstein was charged.
00:45:06.000 Democrat congresswoman Stacey Plaskett and many more.
00:45:09.000 Perhaps the truth about these Democrats and their associates with Jeffrey Epstein will soon be revealed because I have just signed the bill to release the Epstein files.
00:45:17.000 As everyone knows, I asked Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune to pass the bill in the House and the Senate, respectively.
00:45:24.000 Because of this request, the votes were almost unanimous in favor of the passage.
00:45:28.000 At my direction, the Department of Justice has already turned over close to 50,000 pages of documents to Congress.
00:45:34.000 Do not forget the Biden administration did not turn over a single file or page related to Democrat Epstein, nor did they ever speak about him.
00:45:40.000 Democrats have used the Epstein issue, which affects them far more than the Republican Party, In order to try and distract from our amazing victories, including the great big beautiful tax cut bill, strong borders, no men in women's sports or transgender for everyone, ending DEI, stopping Biden's record-setting inflation, lowering prices, biggest tax and regulation cuts in history, ending eight wars, rebuilding our military, knocking out Iran's nuclear capability, getting trillions of dollars invested in the USA,
00:46:09.000 creating the hottest country anywhere in the world, and even delivering a huge defeat to the Democrats on the recent shutdown disaster.
00:46:15.000 For years, our great nation has had to endure Russia, Russia, Russia, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine impeachment hoax number one, impeachment hoax number two, and many other Democrat-created witch hunts and scams, all of which have been so terrible and divisive for our country, and have been done to confuse, deflect, and distract from the great job that Republicans and the Trump administration are doing.
00:46:36.000 This latest hoax will backfire on the Democrats, just as all of the rest have.
00:46:41.000 Thank you again for your attention to this matter.
00:46:43.000 Make America great again.
00:46:44.000 Nobody can glaze Donald Trump like Donald Trump.
00:46:48.000 Like nobody.
00:46:49.000 Like he can go ahead and glaze other people and he's great at it.
00:46:52.000 Like when someone's nice to him, he'll glaze you.
00:46:55.000 But like, man, when he's talking about himself, look out.
00:46:57.000 He is unstoppable.
00:47:00.000 Look at how great I am.
00:47:01.000 In my mind, he does that with voice to text.
00:47:03.000 He's so old.
00:47:05.000 Well, he does it with voice to actual person typing.
00:47:09.000 He tells someone that he doesn't type.
00:47:11.000 Donald Trump is a hunting pecker.
00:47:13.000 I can't imagine.
00:47:15.000 He's not using his.
00:47:17.000 He's doing this.
00:47:18.000 I wouldn't be surprised if he's never had his fingers on a keyboard in his life.
00:47:22.000 You know, just always has a secretary, assistant.
00:47:24.000 I do think that he does a little bit of this.
00:47:26.000 Like Kovefi was this thumbs, but otherwise, he's a hunting pecker and he's telling someone else what to tweet.
00:47:33.000 So I think, you know, it really surprised me a couple months ago when Trump came out hard trying to protect the Epstein files.
00:47:41.000 I mean, he got really vicious, really attacking his followers as well.
00:47:47.000 I'm surprised and pleasantly surprised that he's flipped in supporting this.
00:47:53.000 I don't think it's a good look that he flipped.
00:47:56.000 I think it's a much better look than if he like kept his heels dug into like, hey, there's nothing to see with Epstein.
00:48:03.000 But to his credit, he flipped when he should have.
00:48:07.000 I don't think he ever should have had his heels dug in.
00:48:09.000 But I am surprised by all this.
00:48:11.000 Well, it could have been 40 chess.
00:48:13.000 So like the first thing you could do, Trump can say anything on earth.
00:48:17.000 He could say, you know, it's really good for you to jump off a cliff and these crazy activists are going to go immediately jump off a cliff face first to prove.
00:48:25.000 You know, everybody was taking, you know, the Tylenol or whatever, like, down a whole bottle.
00:48:29.000 It's going to be great.
00:48:30.000 And I'm like, oh, why did you die?
00:48:31.000 Well, that's why.
00:48:32.000 Because they were like, I was trying to die.
00:48:34.000 You died to own the Chuds.
00:48:36.000 You mean the other way?
00:48:37.000 You mean if Trump came out and said, don't jump off a cliff, they'd be like, oh, yeah?
00:48:40.000 Yeah.
00:48:40.000 They'd be like, watch.
00:48:42.000 Like, they'd be all over.
00:48:42.000 You know what I'm saying?
00:48:43.000 And that's what I'm saying.
00:48:44.000 Is maybe when this started rolling, he's like, actually, who cares about the Epstein files?
00:48:48.000 And then all the DMs immediately were like, wait, wait.
00:48:52.000 You're saying he pulled the classic Babylon B ingenious move.
00:48:55.000 Trump comes out in support of impeachment, forcing Democrats to oppose.
00:48:58.000 Yeah.
00:48:59.000 He's basically like, he wants the Epstein files released because it'll make Democrats look bad.
00:49:03.000 So he goes, no, wait, don't.
00:49:04.000 And they're like, oh, now we're going to do it.
00:49:06.000 And then he's like, okay.
00:49:07.000 He should just say he hates himself on radio.
00:49:09.000 Yeah.
00:49:09.000 But I'm like, I love him.
00:49:11.000 Yeah.
00:49:11.000 I love him now.
00:49:12.000 He might have got the idea for that 40 chess Epstein thing from the Babylon B.
00:49:17.000 Well, if it's fourth-dimensional, it implies there's some passage through time.
00:49:20.000 So maybe his future self or Baron from the future came back and gave him this information.
00:49:25.000 You guys are familiar with the Ingersoll, what was it, Ingersoll Lockwood?
00:49:28.000 Was that the name of the books?
00:49:30.000 Baron Trump.
00:49:31.000 You guys don't know about this stuff?
00:49:32.000 What are you doing, bud?
00:49:33.000 Oh, yeah, I've heard a little bit about that.
00:49:34.000 Yeah.
00:49:35.000 That there are like books from the late 1800s about Baron Trump becoming proud.
00:49:40.000 This is for real.
00:49:40.000 It's not.
00:49:41.000 Like anarchists and socialists march from the financial district of Manhattan towards Fifth Avenue to Castle Trump.
00:49:48.000 Like somebody was just like doing ancient 1800s DMT and saw the future or something.
00:49:56.000 Yeah, let me pull this one up.
00:49:57.000 Actually, let's ask our friend Grak.
00:50:00.000 Tell me about Baron Trump time travel books.
00:50:05.000 You can slip through.
00:50:06.000 What's wrong with the Trump being a time traveler?
00:50:09.000 Donald Trump is a time traveler?
00:50:10.000 Obscure children's novels written by American author Ingersoll Lockwood.
00:50:14.000 I didn't believe this was real when this story broke.
00:50:16.000 I was like, this is not possible.
00:50:18.000 The stories feature a young protagonist named Baron Trump.
00:50:21.000 Yeah, full name Wilhelm Heinrich Sebastian von Trump, who embarks on fantastical journeys that involve elements of time displacement, underground worlds, and global exploration.
00:50:33.000 While the books themselves are whimsical Victorian era fiction, similar to the style of Gulliver's travels, they've exploded in popularity due to the eerie parallels.
00:50:42.000 So what is it?
00:50:43.000 There's one where it's called like The Last President, I think it's called, right?
00:50:47.000 Trump as a Time Traveler.
00:50:49.000 Theorists link the books to Nikola Tesla's papers allegedly reviewed by Trump's uncle, John G. Trump, an MIG engineer, who supposedly hid time displacement attack from Tesla's estate in 1943.
00:51:00.000 Trump is said to have used it to go back and influence history.
00:51:03.000 Wait, when were they written?
00:51:05.000 What if the Mandela effect is just Trump going back in time and stepping on bugs?
00:51:09.000 When were they written?
00:51:11.000 18 something.
00:51:12.000 The funnier version of this is that Donald Trump read them and named his son Baron after this just because he read the books.
00:51:19.000 That could be.
00:51:20.000 No, he named his son Baron, goes back in time, and then writes about Baron.
00:51:23.000 I have never seen any evidence that disproves that.
00:51:29.000 It happened.
00:51:30.000 Could.
00:51:30.000 I want to see what the government says.
00:51:32.000 If they're like, no, that's, I'll be like, okay, yeah, it's just real.
00:51:35.000 Bro, with the power of AI, we can make this very easily, but maybe, maybe this is something Seamus could put together for Freedom Tunes where it's like Trump goes back in time, and then he's like at the Fruit of the Loom factory, and there's a guy like, I got an idea for a logo, and then Trump trips and falls and he crashes, and then the cornucopia just like gets splattered with paint, and then in the future just disappears from every label and every tag.
00:51:57.000 Like the videos, the guys who make fake fruit of the loom shirts with the cornucopia, and they put them at thrift stores so that people feel like they're not.
00:52:04.000 Yeah, no, it's like Trump goes back and he sees this book and they're like, yeah, we have this book.
00:52:08.000 It's called the Berenstein Bears.
00:52:09.000 He's like, no, I don't like it.
00:52:13.000 There's a book called The Last President written by Ingersoll Lockwood.
00:52:17.000 It is not the Baron Trump novels.
00:52:18.000 The Baron Trump one was fancy adventures, fanciful adventures.
00:52:22.000 The Last President was a short novella about a populist candidate from New York who wins the presidential election, shocking the establishment.
00:52:29.000 He lives on Fifth Avenue in a gilded mansion.
00:52:32.000 His victory triggers massive riots and protests in New York with mobs marching down Fifth Avenue shouting down with the rich.
00:52:38.000 The country slides into chaos.
00:52:39.000 Congress is deadlocked.
00:52:40.000 States threaten secession.
00:52:42.000 The treasury is almost bankrupt.
00:52:43.000 And there are fears the Republic itself will end.
00:52:45.000 This is prophecy.
00:52:47.000 I'm sorry.
00:52:48.000 Trump went back in time and he's like, let me tell you about my son Baron.
00:52:51.000 He went underground and met nooms.
00:52:51.000 He was magical.
00:52:53.000 None of that's true because Trump said prices are down and everything's hunky-dory now.
00:52:58.000 The incoming president is sworn in on March 4th, the old inauguration date.
00:53:02.000 The book ends on a dark, ambiguous note with the fate of the nation hanging in the balance.
00:53:05.000 Many readers interpret the title literally.
00:53:07.000 He is the last president of the United States as we know it.
00:53:09.000 What if, like, the real reason Democrats keep saying Trump wants to be a dictator is not because of anything Trump said, but because they think this book is prophecy.
00:53:17.000 And they're like, Trump's going to be the last president.
00:53:19.000 He's not going to give up.
00:53:20.000 Yeah.
00:53:21.000 That's interesting.
00:53:23.000 That's a common thing, though, every single time there's the Republican candidate and there's the Dem candidate.
00:53:29.000 The Dem candidate will always claim that if the Republican candidate wins, it will be the last presidential election ever.
00:53:36.000 They've been saying this since I was a kid.
00:53:39.000 So it goes in that way.
00:53:40.000 They will never relinquish power except for when they do.
00:53:43.000 I asked, is Steve Bannon Baron from the future?
00:53:46.000 And Grock says, no, Steve Bannon is not Baron from the future, but the internet wishes he was.
00:53:52.000 There's like a meme where people are saying that, like, the Trumps have time travel technology and then Barron comes back.
00:53:58.000 I guess it only made sense.
00:53:59.000 The meme made sense before Baron was eight feet tall.
00:54:02.000 Yeah.
00:54:03.000 I'm on board with the whole thing.
00:54:05.000 This explains reality so well.
00:54:05.000 I love this.
00:54:08.000 I like the idea that the Mandela effect is just Donald Trump going back in time and stepping on bugs.
00:54:12.000 Just accidentally.
00:54:13.000 It's like butterfly effect.
00:54:15.000 He swats a fly and this changes the course.
00:54:17.000 Like Nelson Mandela survives.
00:54:21.000 It's a good meme.
00:54:23.000 Well, it's a Simpsons episode.
00:54:24.000 So as most jokes are at this point, there's nothing we can do about it.
00:54:28.000 They've written everything.
00:54:30.000 They've been on for so long, you know.
00:54:32.000 You know, it'd be funny.
00:54:33.000 It's like Nostradamus was really dumb, but people think he's prophetic.
00:54:38.000 And no matter what he wrote, people always find a reason why it applies to now and not then.
00:54:43.000 It would be funny if, you know, in like 100 years, people think The Simpsons is prophecy because how much it got right.
00:54:48.000 And they just like scrub through episodes looking for hidden messages of the future.
00:54:52.000 I mean, and with The Simpsons, there's also odds, even if it's not prophetic in some mystical way.
00:54:59.000 They've got, it's got to be over a thousand episodes at this point.
00:55:02.000 The show's been on for well over 30 years.
00:55:04.000 It's way more than that.
00:55:05.000 Way more.
00:55:05.000 Yeah, I think it's like two or three thousand episodes.
00:55:07.000 It's a lot.
00:55:08.000 A couple thousand episodes.
00:55:10.000 You, there, there is so much content there.
00:55:13.000 They will at least accidentally look like they're prophesizing quite a bit.
00:55:17.000 Oh, wait.
00:55:18.000 No, it's 799.
00:55:18.000 Oh, wait.
00:55:20.000 That's it.
00:55:20.000 Yeah.
00:55:21.000 When did it stop?
00:55:22.000 So their hit rate is really good then.
00:55:24.000 That's not that much at all.
00:55:25.000 It started in 1989.
00:55:27.000 Wow.
00:55:27.000 37 seasons.
00:55:28.000 Okay.
00:55:29.000 That's, yeah, that's that's a lot less than I thought.
00:55:31.000 I thought it was a couple thousand already.
00:55:32.000 I thought they had like a if it was going to be anything, it would be soap operas that would be hitting it out of the park because there's been like 10,000 of every one of those episodes.
00:55:39.000 Yeah.
00:55:40.000 Every single day.
00:55:41.000 Every day.
00:55:43.000 We should, we should actually look into it.
00:55:43.000 Yeah.
00:55:45.000 Maybe they have problems.
00:55:46.000 At least somebody has ended up like sleeping with their wife's twin sister by accident, not realizing who it was.
00:55:53.000 By accident.
00:55:54.000 Oops.
00:55:55.000 So what do you think?
00:55:56.000 Why do you think it is that he spent so much time denying this?
00:56:00.000 He's talking about all of the wins they've had.
00:56:02.000 He's talking about the damage that all of this conversation has made.
00:56:06.000 Because he has time travel technology.
00:56:09.000 He knows what to say to influence future events.
00:56:12.000 He comes from a future where he denied it the whole time, but it didn't work.
00:56:14.000 So he came back and said, I accept this.
00:56:17.000 This is the sci-fi that hurts my brain.
00:56:19.000 I don't like this type of sci-fi.
00:56:20.000 So all time travel sci-fi can end up hurting your brain.
00:56:24.000 When Epstein went to prison, I guess for the second and final time, Trump was in office then.
00:56:30.000 Is that correct?
00:56:31.000 It would have been 2019, the end of 2019.
00:56:35.000 So Trump was in office.
00:56:37.000 You know, something I was thinking about earlier today, like his FBI, his DOJ, and granted, they were kind of like enemies of him, but it was still under the Trump administration.
00:56:48.000 If they were doing some cover-ups, maybe Epstein was an informant for the CIA working for them, Assad, whatever it is.
00:56:56.000 That's a really bad look.
00:56:58.000 And if that happened under Trump's administration and his first term, that could be a reason why he was wanting to cover up the Epstein files.
00:57:08.000 Because he was like an informant for the CIA.
00:57:11.000 Yeah.
00:57:11.000 And even if it's not under Trump's direction, it's like, well, the CIA is under your administration.
00:57:17.000 You tell that to the government.
00:57:18.000 We're like, bro, we hired Nazi scientists.
00:57:21.000 Are you kidding me?
00:57:21.000 Like, we'll work with anybody here.
00:57:23.000 Like, if it means we can win, we'll work with the worst of the worst.
00:57:27.000 Yeah, I mean, that's kind of the like realpolitik, right?
00:57:32.000 Like, if it gives you an advantage, it doesn't matter what they do.
00:57:35.000 And that is standard operating procedure for the United States.
00:57:38.000 We've funded some of the worst terrorists in modern history and worked with some of the most terrible people.
00:57:46.000 Like the president of Syria was just in the White House, and there are pictures of him holding people's heads up from when he was a freedom fighter, actually a member of Al-Qaeda.
00:57:57.000 So there's no question that the way it works is you do some shady stuff, but they also like to conceal that.
00:58:03.000 They don't like that publicized.
00:58:05.000 There's the meme.
00:58:06.000 It's like, isn't it funny how every 20 years something horrible comes out about the CIA and they say, lol, we did that.
00:58:12.000 Never mind.
00:58:13.000 And then people just forget and go back to pretending like stuff like that never happened.
00:58:17.000 I live in Huntsville, Alabama, and you can just drive down and every building has a name on it and it's just a Nazi.
00:58:17.000 Yeah.
00:58:24.000 Just a what?
00:58:25.000 Like an old Nazi scientist.
00:58:27.000 Oh, wow.
00:58:28.000 Well, that's right, because Huntsville has quite the NASA presence.
00:58:32.000 Yeah, 100%.
00:58:33.000 I thought all the Nazis went to Argentina.
00:58:35.000 We got a few of them now.
00:58:37.000 To my surprise.
00:58:39.000 By the way, Cody, you have not publicly condemned the Nazis during this conversation.
00:58:44.000 That proves it.
00:58:45.000 There's very good people on both sides.
00:58:48.000 There's very fine people on both sides, right?
00:58:50.000 Careful, man, or Media Matters is going to be like, and Cody Dennison was like...
00:58:54.000 They're going to be like that anyways.
00:58:56.000 Let's jump to this next door.
00:58:57.000 We got this from Axios, Democratic rep, Sheila Sherphyllis McCormick indicted.
00:59:02.000 Can you believe it?
00:59:03.000 A Democrat indicted.
00:59:06.000 You know what, guys?
00:59:07.000 I can't do it.
00:59:07.000 Let's talk about this.
00:59:08.000 Winter storm warning is 24 inches of snow to hit.
00:59:11.000 This is infinitely more interesting to me at this point.
00:59:13.000 I got to be honest, that a winter storm is coming.
00:59:15.000 Maybe I'll go skiing.
00:59:16.000 But no, the real story is, yes, a Democrat funneled $5 million stolen from FEMA, according to the indictment, to her company and to her congressional campaign.
00:59:26.000 Heavens me.
00:59:27.000 A Democrat cheated and stole money from the government to get elected.
00:59:31.000 One of the big theories that many individuals have had is that USAID funds were being shuffled around through what they would do is they would hire some lawyers or some nonprofits.
00:59:43.000 Then those nonprofits would make donations to foundations, which would funnel the money to a PAC, which would then work to get a Soros DA or Democrat elected.
00:59:50.000 I am not surprised to find out that the DOJ has now indicted someone who stole allegedly $5 million in FEMA payments to fund her congressional campaign.
00:59:59.000 Look, the closing of USAID is one of the worst things to happen to the Democrat Party in probably modern history.
01:00:06.000 And I think that this kind of stuff is strong circumstantial evidence, at least.
01:00:12.000 Yeah, well, you had things like professional hula hoop dancing in Zimbabwe, $10 million.
01:00:17.000 And I'm like, that wasn't going to the Zimbabwe guy.
01:00:20.000 That was going to somebody else to fund their campaign.
01:00:24.000 To be honest, it kind of seems like I should go into politics because that's a lot of money.
01:00:29.000 That is a lot.
01:00:31.000 Maybe you won't get caught.
01:00:32.000 You know, the weirdest thing to me about all these politicians is just it's not good money.
01:00:37.000 I mean, technically, if you're like for half of members of Congress, you don't make that much money.
01:00:41.000 You're not going to make a lot.
01:00:43.000 If you're famous like AOC, as soon as she leaves, actually, I think people are already assuming she's probably well off now because she's got the opportunity to speaking events or whatever it is.
01:00:54.000 I don't know if she actually does that stuff.
01:00:56.000 But you look at the Pelosis and it's like, come on, you know, Pelosi.
01:01:00.000 A couple hundred million dollars.
01:01:01.000 Yeah, come on.
01:01:02.000 But for the most part, I see a lot of members of Congress and I'm like, why fight so hard and work so incessantly for nothing?
01:01:09.000 And I got, just sorry, just to clarify, there are members of Congress, I think, actually believe in what they're doing.
01:01:15.000 But a lot of these guys just seem to be cutting backroom deals for nothing.
01:01:19.000 Yeah, and I agree.
01:01:21.000 But also, I think for some of them, power is the currency that they're after.
01:01:26.000 And also, maybe all of them have the opportunity to get wealthy, whether it's through above-board means or below-board means.
01:01:34.000 But also some of them, while they might be power hungry, they're also just stupid people.
01:01:39.000 Like a lot of these folks, they haven't run successful businesses.
01:01:44.000 Some of them are lifelong politicians, which kind of says like, well, all right, you don't know how to do much else, but you're after power.
01:01:51.000 That's what AOC is going to be.
01:01:52.000 Bernie.
01:01:53.000 You know, she was a bartender beforehand.
01:01:55.000 I don't think that she had any other serious employment and she got into her seat because there was a runoff election or whatever or something.
01:02:04.000 I'm not sure the specifics, but she's not going to do anything else.
01:02:08.000 She's going to be in politics for the rest of her life.
01:02:10.000 That means they're not the stupid people.
01:02:11.000 That means that they're like, I'm dumb and I'm making a ton of money.
01:02:14.000 It's like the thing, it's like, who's the smartest teacher at a school?
01:02:17.000 Is it the, and everybody says the science teacher?
01:02:19.000 No, it's the gym.
01:02:19.000 It's the gym teacher because they get to make all the same money that the science teacher does.
01:02:24.000 And they just get to play in the gym all day.
01:02:26.000 Yeah.
01:02:28.000 You know, they're very smart at making money despite being stupid.
01:02:32.000 Yeah.
01:02:33.000 I just think it's, I think it's insane that it's 2025 and probably over 80% of people or Americans agree that there needs to be some form of term limits and it still hasn't existed.
01:02:43.000 So I'm not one of the people that agrees about term limits because I think that when you're dealing with Congress who's every two years, like everyone hates Congress, but everyone hates Congress except for their own specific Congressperson.
01:02:57.000 The thing that they hate about Congress is there's 435 members and they find it difficult to agree and it's hard to get things passed.
01:03:04.000 And really when they say, oh, I hate Congress because they don't get anything done, for the most part, they're saying, I hate the fact that the things that I want don't get done because if there were a bunch of stuff getting done that they hated, you know, they'd be like, oh, I hate Congress because they're doing all these things that negatively affect my life.
01:03:20.000 The problem is the federal government is not supposed to be doing probably 90% of the things that it does, you know, and a lot of the power that Congress has had, they've abdicated, right?
01:03:31.000 Like the power to declare war or when it comes to any kind of international conflict, Congress has the power to do that stuff.
01:03:39.000 But they don't want to because if they vote on something, then they have to face their constituents.
01:03:43.000 So that's why they give the power to the president and said, oh, you know, let's go ahead and give the president an authorization to use military force.
01:03:49.000 And the president, multiple presidents have now used that AUMF to justify whatever they want to do internationally whenever it comes to the military.
01:03:57.000 So it's, I do understand why people would say, well, term limits would fix this, but I don't think term limits would actually fix anything.
01:04:04.000 I don't think that it would make people happy because I don't think that people have a clear understanding of what it is that they're unhappy about with Congress.
01:04:13.000 I think term limits, I agree, it wouldn't fix everything.
01:04:16.000 I don't think it would fix most things.
01:04:18.000 But one thing it would fix is when you have a puppet up there like Feinstein or Mitch McConnell, where people are literally playing weekend at Bernie's.
01:04:29.000 I think there's a little deception there where, yes, they are the ones elected to represent their constituents, but also they don't seem to be running the show at their office.
01:04:40.000 Here's another one where I'm going to take a ton of heat from the chat for saying this.
01:04:43.000 As much as people want to go ahead and dog on Mitch McConnell, Mitch McConnell is the reason why the conservatives have been able to, why President Trump and conservatives have had the ability to appoint so many judges to the Supreme Court.
01:04:57.000 And the Supreme Court has done a lot of things that conservatives.
01:05:00.000 But just one.
01:05:02.000 He blocked Garland.
01:05:03.000 He blocked Garland, but he got them the 6'3 instead of the 5'4.
01:05:07.000 Yeah, the 6'3, which I don't know what the specific things were that happened when it was just 6'3, but Mitch McConnell really did know the House very well.
01:05:20.000 And he's a significant reason why a lot of the policies that conservatives like were passed.
01:05:25.000 Trump should have put Matt Gates on the Supreme Court.
01:05:27.000 Yeah, well, Phil, you clearly work for Israel.
01:05:32.000 How dare you say anything kind about Mitch McConnell?
01:05:36.000 $7,000 for that card.
01:05:39.000 It's Israel.
01:05:41.000 I heard his cash app go off.
01:05:44.000 It's Apple Pay, actually.
01:05:45.000 There it is.
01:05:46.000 Apple Pay chime.
01:05:47.000 But no, I mean, seriously, like, I get it's popular to dog out Congress and stuff, but a lot of people, they don't understand the way that the government works.
01:05:58.000 This is part of the reason why people are so upset with Trump for a lot of things, right?
01:06:02.000 They're like, Trump hasn't done enough.
01:06:03.000 Trump hasn't done this.
01:06:04.000 Trump hasn't done that.
01:06:05.000 And it's because the president doesn't have unilateral authority to just walk in and say, do this, do this, do this.
01:06:12.000 He's done a lot of the things that he has the power to do, he's done.
01:06:18.000 And he's set in motion to get a lot of the things that he made promises about.
01:06:22.000 He set things in motion.
01:06:23.000 Now, granted, he hasn't just wrapped up a bunch of people and thrown them in jail, but that's not a realistic, you know, not a realistic expectation.
01:06:32.000 And again, I know that I'm not even looking at the chat right now.
01:06:34.000 I know I'm getting excoriated for saying this, but no one likes to know how the sausage is made.
01:06:41.000 No one spends time looking into, you know, why does Congress do the things they do?
01:06:45.000 To be fair, back in the day when butchers made real sausage, everybody was interested.
01:06:51.000 But now that that saying largely refers to when they throw the cow into a giant grinder that turns it into a pink paste and then squeeze it into a tube of intestines, nobody wants to watch that happen.
01:07:00.000 My point is, if you go way back in the day, people were very interested in the honest functioning of our government electoral representatives, and now it's all crooked, corrupt, and busted, and everybody hates it.
01:07:10.000 I also think that a part of it is like right now with the economy being the way that it is, that people might be more forgiving of him not putting people in prison, you know, despite the fact that we know that that's not a realistic expectation for a lot of it.
01:07:21.000 They might be focusing on that less if they felt like the economy was doing better, which, you know, he keeps saying is doing great and Wall Street is doing great.
01:07:30.000 And a lot of people are like, yeah, that's that's not true, bro.
01:07:33.000 Oh, wait, someone, this came out the other day.
01:07:35.000 This is Thomas Massey's first bill to be signed by Trump.
01:07:38.000 Yes.
01:07:38.000 Is that what it is?
01:07:39.000 Yeah.
01:07:40.000 He doesn't know yet.
01:07:41.000 He's like, never mind.
01:07:41.000 He finds out.
01:07:42.000 Yeah.
01:07:43.000 Like they can keep calling me a pedophile.
01:07:45.000 Massey gets nothing.
01:07:45.000 I don't care.
01:07:48.000 I mean, Trump's been insulting Massey in non-political ways, you know?
01:07:53.000 Bad look.
01:07:54.000 Man, and Thomas Massey, is he maybe the most beloved member of Congress?
01:08:00.000 I don't know.
01:08:02.000 The core right doesn't like him.
01:08:06.000 The left doesn't care much for him at all, but the libertarians love him.
01:08:11.000 He, I mean, anytime I, not anytime, most of the time when I hear him talk, it's just, it's what I wish every politician would say.
01:08:19.000 He's just real.
01:08:20.000 And I, and I love Trump, and I don't love Trump insulting Massey and making him an enemy.
01:08:27.000 I just don't like it.
01:08:28.000 Massey has chickens.
01:08:32.000 How bad could he be?
01:08:33.000 I like that.
01:08:33.000 That's it.
01:08:34.000 That's it.
01:08:34.000 That's the tweet.
01:08:35.000 That's it.
01:08:35.000 And he went and got a Tesla battery from a car, from a Model S, and he powers his home with it.
01:08:41.000 He's got so much.
01:08:43.000 The actual point I was going to make is, aside from the joke, that just having chickens is good enough.
01:08:46.000 But no, he has the Klux capacitor, which is he built this chicken coop that slowly moves.
01:08:52.000 And so the chickens always have fresh grass.
01:08:55.000 Oh, that's cool.
01:08:56.000 Wild.
01:08:57.000 This guy's crazy.
01:08:58.000 That's cool.
01:08:59.000 Yeah.
01:08:59.000 Phil, do you want to offer a retraction on your freaking McConnell statement yet?
01:09:04.000 Oh, no.
01:09:05.000 Dude, you were sticking.
01:09:06.000 Okay.
01:09:06.000 I don't.
01:09:07.000 That's who you are.
01:09:08.000 Generally, the idea is that Massey won't vote for anything that expands the debt in this country, right?
01:09:14.000 And he's right.
01:09:16.000 It's wild that we are in a we live in a house where mom and dad keep racking up debt on the credit card and arguing over how much more they can spend on a credit card.
01:09:26.000 And we're just sitting here being like, sooner or later, the bill comes due.
01:09:30.000 And we've been seeing it with inflation.
01:09:31.000 Right now, the median income, I looked it up, is $83,000.
01:09:34.000 That doesn't mean people have more money to buy stuff with.
01:09:37.000 It means everything's more expensive.
01:09:40.000 The median income in America?
01:09:41.000 Yeah.
01:09:42.000 Trump's strategy, and he said this before, is to be underleveraged, meaning he doesn't care if inflation is high so long as individual income is higher.
01:09:53.000 So that means the prices of houses are going to reach a million bucks.
01:09:57.000 But don't worry, Gen Z. Hopefully, you have a million dollar salary at some point.
01:10:00.000 Then you can buy a house in a year or two.
01:10:04.000 That's the game plan.
01:10:05.000 We're all going to be Scrooge McDuck with Zimbabwe dollars, but don't worry.
01:10:09.000 We'll have enough of them to buy things.
01:10:11.000 When I first moved down here, an ounce of gold was like $2,2100.
01:10:16.000 And gold is now $4,000.
01:10:18.000 And that was three years ago.
01:10:20.000 $4,084.
01:10:20.000 Wow.
01:10:21.000 What's silver at?
01:10:24.000 $51.
01:10:26.000 I got this thing of silver right here.
01:10:28.000 Wow.
01:10:29.000 Gold is a really good indicator because it's basically a store of value.
01:10:33.000 You know, if you buy gold, the price of gold compared to the dollar generally stays the same.
01:10:38.000 But, you know, the government isn't going to stop printing money.
01:10:43.000 And they're probably going to end up printing a lot of money to pay the debt.
01:10:46.000 And the dollar is just going to, you know, crash.
01:10:49.000 And hopefully it doesn't crash too hard.
01:10:51.000 Yeah.
01:10:52.000 You know?
01:10:52.000 And they're going to pass the buck off on whatever the next administration is in office.
01:10:55.000 Which is, I mean, look, Gen Z is really pissed off at the boomers.
01:10:59.000 And Gen Alpha is going to be even more under duress because of it.
01:11:05.000 It's not looking good because the boomers have really been terrible stewards of the economy and terrible stewards of the United States.
01:11:13.000 And they're leaving the younger generation, generations, which are significantly smaller than the boomers.
01:11:19.000 Like they're leaving them with the responsibility of paying for it.
01:11:22.000 And it's a horrible, horrible situation.
01:11:24.000 Because they want to go on a cruise and own two homes.
01:11:26.000 Yeah, they want to own multiple homes and they want to have a Airbnb.
01:11:31.000 I have this stack of silver.
01:11:32.000 Look how beautiful it is.
01:11:33.000 It's legit silver.
01:11:34.000 And man, when I bought this stuff, I think it was like $18.
01:11:39.000 That wasn't that long ago.
01:11:40.000 It's $50.
01:11:41.000 This is $50.
01:11:43.000 This is wow.
01:11:44.000 This is $1,000, right?
01:11:45.000 This is crazy.
01:11:46.000 This whole thing was $200 when I bought it.
01:11:51.000 That is not saying, wow, I made a great investment.
01:11:53.000 My silver has gone up in value.
01:11:54.000 It's saying everything's collapsing around it.
01:11:56.000 Well, actually, I take that back.
01:11:57.000 To be fair, silver is getting more expensive because data centers and electric cars consume a lot of silver and they're buying it up.
01:12:08.000 Yeah, but the problems that we're facing, they're all based on economics.
01:12:15.000 Even the influx of immigrants, it's because of the economics of it.
01:12:20.000 But that's my point when he's talking about this stuff and he's saying like the economy is doing great.
01:12:25.000 Prices are down.
01:12:25.000 It's like everybody knows that that's not true.
01:12:28.000 And it would be better to just be like, we're working on it.
01:12:32.000 It's going to be difficult.
01:12:33.000 It's not going to be easy, but we're going to get through it as a country.
01:12:36.000 But instead, pretending like everything is okay.
01:12:39.000 That's what Biden did.
01:12:40.000 And that's part of one of the reasons why Biden lost is because they were telling Americans that we're suffering.
01:12:45.000 They were like, no, it's actually okay.
01:12:48.000 The economy is doing fine, et cetera.
01:12:50.000 And Americans are just like, no, like I'm the one that goes and buys my groceries and it's not okay.
01:12:56.000 Like my paycheck doesn't go as far as it used to.
01:12:59.000 It's not okay.
01:13:00.000 It is never a good idea to tell the American people that they are not suffering when they're suffering.
01:13:08.000 Let's start with this next story, which is going viral on X today.
01:13:11.000 Again, Slow News Day.
01:13:13.000 Nick Fuentes says the GOP must be destroyed and replaced by a left-right populist coalition.
01:13:19.000 The left has to give up immigration.
01:13:21.000 The right has to give up on the free market.
01:13:23.000 Let's play a little bit of what he has to say.
01:13:27.000 If we can unmute.
01:13:28.000 It's our way or the highway.
01:13:32.000 You've enjoyed the power and privileges for long enough.
01:13:35.000 We're Zara bargain.
01:13:40.000 So I love it.
01:13:41.000 It's time to undermine the GOP.
01:13:42.000 I said it in 2020.
01:13:44.000 The GOP must be destroyed.
01:13:46.000 Has to be utter.
01:13:48.000 And yeah, they're going to say he's a Democrat.
01:13:51.000 He wants the GOP to be destroyed.
01:13:52.000 The GOP serves the interests.
01:13:57.000 The GOP, as presently constructed.
01:14:01.000 That's what he means.
01:14:02.000 Serves the interests, the special interests, the donors.
01:14:02.000 Right.
01:14:07.000 Everybody knows that.
01:14:10.000 It serves Silicon Valley and Little Tech.
01:14:14.000 Palantir, Tesla, SpaceX, Andorrill, Oracle.
01:14:21.000 It serves Wall Street.
01:14:24.000 That's why Ken Griffin gave them millions of dollars.
01:14:27.000 What say you, folks?
01:14:29.000 Should the left and the right join forces?
01:14:31.000 A populist coalition?
01:14:33.000 Well, if they give up on immigration, they give up on immigration and we give on a free market.
01:14:38.000 We get to bask in the glory of gender ideology.
01:14:40.000 Yeah.
01:14:42.000 What does he mean by the right has to give up on the free market?
01:14:45.000 Like, is he talking about socialism then?
01:14:49.000 He is talking about social programs for Americans and likely from his perspective, white Americans.
01:14:56.000 So he's just a leftist.
01:14:59.000 It's the policy of national socialism.
01:15:03.000 I'm not on board with that.
01:15:05.000 See, this is the issue I take with this woke right stuff.
01:15:09.000 Is that if the argument is Nick Fuentes uses critical race theory and socialist policies and financing, blah, blah, blah, blah.
01:15:17.000 I'm like, well, that's just the woke left.
01:15:18.000 That's not, there's, what's the difference?
01:15:22.000 What's the difference?
01:15:23.000 Well, the difference is, well, there is no difference.
01:15:24.000 He's wearing a suit?
01:15:25.000 Yeah.
01:15:26.000 It's that he's a nationalist as opposed to an internationalist, which is the big difference between the communists and the national socialists, the Nazis.
01:15:35.000 They're all just socialists.
01:15:36.000 They were all socialists.
01:15:39.000 It's just that it was socialism for in the Nazis' policy.
01:15:43.000 It was socialism for the German people.
01:15:46.000 There were all kinds of policies that were instituted that were supposed to help the German people, right?
01:15:52.000 Only the German people.
01:15:54.000 The communists want to see those policies spread throughout the world, and they don't want to see national.
01:15:59.000 They don't want to see nations.
01:15:59.000 They don't believe that there should be any countries.
01:16:02.000 That's part of why they have the open borders thing, because there should not be any borders.
01:16:05.000 Everybody is people.
01:16:07.000 People are all the same.
01:16:08.000 And so they should all get the same benefits from a one-world.
01:16:12.000 This is not a woke right.
01:16:13.000 This is the left.
01:16:15.000 This is the Bernie argument.
01:16:16.000 The only difference I see is that for sure, if you go back and look at Nick's old comments about identity and things like that, people are like, that's woke right.
01:16:24.000 And I'm like, right-wing doesn't mean white.
01:16:27.000 So the question I have for these people say woke right is, okay, does right-wing mean white?
01:16:32.000 No, it doesn't.
01:16:33.000 Okay, well, then Nick Fuentes is just literally a leftist.
01:16:36.000 If his argument is command economies and a coalition with leftists, as long as they abandon other issues like on immigration, Bernie Sanders was critical on open border policies.
01:16:47.000 But you're talking about economic left, like leftism in his identity comments, will exclude him from any sort of leftist coalition because they're heavily into identity.
01:16:57.000 It's the same.
01:16:59.000 So first thing, the first thing I will say about the, as we've talked about woke right stuff quite a bit, the principal issue with the argument about the phrase woke right is James Lindsey.
01:17:09.000 He's taken the conversation.
01:17:11.000 I think it was an intentional.
01:17:12.000 The man is famous for infiltrating groups he does not like, tricking them into publishing stupid arguments so they look like morons.
01:17:20.000 He's basically doing this right now.
01:17:22.000 And I would argue it's because he's a fan of Nick Fuentes and he's anti-Israel.
01:17:26.000 And it's funny because I don't understand when people laugh.
01:17:29.000 They laugh when I tell them that.
01:17:31.000 And I just pause and I say, okay, let's try this again.
01:17:33.000 What is James Lindsay famous for?
01:17:35.000 Oh, he infiltrated academic groups on the left and tricked them into publishing things that made them look stupid.
01:17:40.000 And what's he doing now?
01:17:40.000 Okay.
01:17:41.000 He's wholeheartedly and genuinely saying retarded things.
01:17:44.000 I'm like, uh-huh.
01:17:45.000 Or maybe he's doing what he's always done, which is his MO to infiltrate the neoconservative right-wing faction, trick them into sounding like morons by saying dumb things so it discredits the arguments against Nick.
01:18:00.000 This was brought up by Rich Barris and what's the fellow's name from Russ Musson?
01:18:06.000 Mitchell?
01:18:08.000 He said, they said they're basically making Nick a household name.
01:18:12.000 Why are they doing it?
01:18:13.000 I'm like, well, again, we can go back to the MO of James Lindsay, which is infiltrate left.
01:18:17.000 You know, he infiltrated leftist groups, tricked them into giving stupid arguments and being made fun of so that it discredited them.
01:18:24.000 And now here he is aligned with neocons, for which he's never been one and making them sound like retards.
01:18:29.000 So I have to assume that as Nick is saying things like no free market, and he's very much holds similar views to the left and wants to align with them.
01:18:39.000 I think that's the MO of James to discredit this concept of woke right.
01:18:43.000 I understand the point they're making is that, as you've mentioned, Nick Fuente's identitarian views, solely because of his race, won't align with the leftist identitarian views, which are anti-white, but right-wing does not mean white.
01:18:56.000 This is literally just a different element of wokeism.
01:19:00.000 It's literally leftist.
01:19:01.000 Yeah.
01:19:02.000 And yes, his like whites are better and then kind of the left the past handful of years is like non-white is better.
01:19:11.000 But what that has in common is it's a race-based view.
01:19:15.000 Yeah.
01:19:15.000 Identitarianism.
01:19:16.000 So I do, yeah.
01:19:18.000 So to me, yeah, it does ring true that he just acts like a leftist.
01:19:22.000 But I'm not here to have the debate over Nick being left, right, up, down, whatever stuff means.
01:19:27.000 The question is, the GOP has largely done a bad job, in my opinion.
01:19:31.000 Yeah.
01:19:32.000 What we are getting from Donald Trump seems to be surface-level scratches on a gigantic steel sphere.
01:19:39.000 We're not cracking to the core and figuring out what's going on.
01:19:41.000 Where's the rot?
01:19:42.000 We're just getting red meat.
01:19:45.000 It's been almost a year now.
01:19:46.000 And what do we have to show for it?
01:19:48.000 Mortgage fraud indictments.
01:19:48.000 What would you like to see?
01:19:50.000 What would you like to see that?
01:19:51.000 Like, I guess the question here is: what is it that people would expect in a perfect world?
01:19:54.000 He's doing everything exactly the way you want it.
01:19:56.000 What would you do?
01:19:57.000 I'm specifically referring to the criminal elements of the government and what it means if Trump doesn't succeed in 26 and 28.
01:20:04.000 I'm actually rather happy with his moves and the tariffs.
01:20:06.000 And I think he's done pretty dang well in general policy measures.
01:20:12.000 His immigration raids, we're not getting the numbers we were hoping to see, but that's not his fault.
01:20:16.000 That's the Biden administration's fault.
01:20:18.000 He's doing a pretty good job with ICE, with immigration.
01:20:21.000 I think Pam Bondi is not doing a particularly, let me put it this way.
01:20:25.000 I think Pam Bondi is a general net positive, but lacking.
01:20:28.000 And there are much, much better people.
01:20:31.000 I know people have criticisms of Kash Patel and Dan Bongino.
01:20:33.000 I don't know if there's anyone who would have been better.
01:20:35.000 Pam Bondi, maybe, to be honest.
01:20:37.000 The Epstein stuff is weird, broken, and they screwed this one up.
01:20:40.000 And that does fall into Cash and Dan as well.
01:20:43.000 But I don't know if you could name someone who would have been better than Cash and Dan.
01:20:47.000 Sorry.
01:20:47.000 It's like if it's not them, then who?
01:20:49.000 However, I think Pam Bondi is a C. I'm not trying to be a dick to Pam Bondi, but she's been like a C.
01:20:56.000 It's like good, not great.
01:20:57.000 So the Trump administration, in terms of the DOJ, I think could have done a lot better.
01:21:02.000 Perhaps the sad reality is they could not have.
01:21:05.000 And we're just, it's wishful thinking.
01:21:07.000 But again, I'll stress policy-wise, I'm actually fairly happy.
01:21:10.000 I think maybe there's always room for improvement.
01:21:12.000 Trump could have done better for sure, but he's doing well.
01:21:14.000 It's pretty good.
01:21:15.000 Yeah, I mean, if you read Trump's Truth Social tweet that we saw a few minutes ago, he's clearly doing very well.
01:21:21.000 Yeah, he said it right there.
01:21:23.000 Yeah, you can tell.
01:21:24.000 It's like three extra paragraphs in there.
01:21:26.000 Look, I don't imagine that a lot of people, like the it took a large coalition to get him elected.
01:21:32.000 And I imagine a lot of that was based on economics.
01:21:34.000 And those people aren't worried about the arrests.
01:21:36.000 They're not worried about the government rot.
01:21:38.000 They're worried about whether they're going to be able to afford their groceries.
01:21:42.000 So while we would love to see those arrests, I, for one, you know, but we pay attention to politics, right?
01:21:46.000 Like it becomes almost like a spectator sport in which you pay, you read so much about this stuff, you pay such close attention, you want to see action happen, and it doesn't necessarily come to pass.
01:21:56.000 But he also needs to pass other things, not just policies, but the grocery prices have to come down.
01:22:01.000 Things have to change.
01:22:02.000 And is that all entirely on him?
01:22:05.000 No, not entirely.
01:22:06.000 It takes a long time.
01:22:08.000 And in a lot of ways, inflation takes forever if it ever goes down at all, right?
01:22:11.000 Well, inflation, the prices aren't going to go down.
01:22:14.000 You need wages to come up to meet the inflation.
01:22:16.000 It's to stabilize, right?
01:22:17.000 So I don't know if there's a better path forward.
01:22:19.000 I do think that they could be better about getting out the things they've succeeded on because it feels like what happens, at least if you're on X, and maybe that's just a bubble of your own, is that you get lost in all the people talking about what hasn't happened and you need to focus on the stuff that has and leave out the stuff that people know is not true, like the grocery prices and the fact that the economy is doing great and all that stuff.
01:22:38.000 You need to like the Supreme Court is just one of those many wins, if you want to talk about that.
01:22:43.000 Like, look what we've done for future generations with our appointments to the Supreme Court.
01:22:47.000 That's something that you can talk about as a win, but he needs to get away from the messaging path that he's on right now.
01:22:55.000 Just the fact that the border's closed, Roe v. Wade got overturned, affirmative action was overturned at the Supreme Court.
01:23:01.000 The Voting Rights Act is in question.
01:23:03.000 Like, those are things that are directly because of Donald Trump, right?
01:23:07.000 Whether it be policies that he has, which is like the border, that was he came in, he fixed it.
01:23:12.000 All of the Democrats swore up and down that nothing could be done.
01:23:15.000 You couldn't do anything.
01:23:16.000 We had to have this big new bill, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
01:23:18.000 And turns out, no, all you had to do is actually just have a president that wanted to actually close the border.
01:23:23.000 And look what's happened.
01:23:24.000 And then all the other stuff that the Supreme Court has done, you know, that was all directly because of Donald Trump's appointments to the Supreme Court.
01:23:24.000 The border's closed.
01:23:33.000 But even the border stuff doesn't necessarily work for him because people are like, why aren't there more deportations?
01:23:38.000 Why aren't you there?
01:23:40.000 It's true.
01:23:41.000 There are people that are like, why aren't there more?
01:23:43.000 And I'm, you know, one of those people.
01:23:44.000 I want to see more deportations.
01:23:45.000 I want to see, you know, I want to see everybody that's here illegally deported.
01:23:49.000 But at the same time, the fact that the border is closed and we have a net decrease in population because of that, because of the border this year.
01:23:59.000 But then he's like, you know what?
01:24:00.000 H-1B visas, bring them all in.
01:24:02.000 It's 600,000.
01:24:03.000 Like he's, he's got.
01:24:05.000 I'm not saying he's perfect, but the point that I'm making is like he hit, he has done a lot of the things that he's made promises to.
01:24:13.000 And but part of the reason why people feel unhappy is one, the economy, and two, because they want to see a president come in and say, you're going to jail, you're going to jail, you're going to jail, you're going to jail.
01:24:25.000 And all of that, like that doesn't happen unless you have like an actual authoritarian, you know, president that comes in and says, who cares about the law?
01:24:33.000 We're just going to start tossing people into jail.
01:24:35.000 And there are people that are on the right that are, they tend to be extremely online that are like, that's what I want to see.
01:24:42.000 I want a dictator.
01:24:43.000 I want someone to come in and do all of these things.
01:24:46.000 And if he doesn't, then he's failed us, blah, blah, blah.
01:24:48.000 And like, those people are never going to be happy because of the way that our government works.
01:24:55.000 Like, Donald Trump just doesn't have the authority to do that stuff.
01:24:58.000 I think to appreciate the major differences Trump has made, you have to look at the long term.
01:25:04.000 I think he's smart enough that a lot of what he does, it doesn't necessarily benefit like right now.
01:25:10.000 You can't tangibly see it like you could if, hey, grocery prices are way down.
01:25:14.000 That's amazing.
01:25:15.000 That's great right now.
01:25:16.000 But like just closing the border, deporting dangerous criminals long term, those of us with kids, we say America is going to be a better place for my kids.
01:25:27.000 There's not these maniac criminals just flocking into the country, forklift, you know, tearing down the fences so they can get in easier and therefore, you know, make our country a more dangerous place over the next 10 years, 20 years.
01:25:44.000 So I think Trump has, you know, done a great service where he's made our country better long-term and, you know, the short-term gratification of seeing grocery prices go down, that would be great.
01:25:58.000 But I think he's doing better things than that.
01:26:01.000 I think the biggest thing that my biggest takeaway is something that might have been unintentional.
01:26:07.000 And that's like the complete culture shift.
01:26:09.000 You know, like a couple of years ago, you couldn't, you could, you couldn't say anything online without maybe being afraid of losing your job, losing everything.
01:26:16.000 Now there's people out like you can, you can pretty much say whatever you want within reason.
01:26:22.000 You know, you could be canceled over a joke from 2010 or 2018 a couple of years ago.
01:26:27.000 And I mean a mild joke too.
01:26:29.000 Nothing insane or crazy at all.
01:26:31.000 And people are generally, they feel safer to say what they want to say.
01:26:35.000 And I think that's leading to leading to taking away the power from these people that thought that, oh, I can just be an anonymous source and send an anonymous link and just ruin somebody's life.
01:26:44.000 You know what I'm saying?
01:26:45.000 Oddly enough, Nick Fuentes has become like the dividing line on that.
01:26:48.000 If you saw the story about Dasha from Red Scare, you know, losing her talent agency over that, because one guy obsessively emailed her Gersh for like two years saying that everybody that she was interviewing was a bad person.
01:27:01.000 But then the last, the bridge too far was let's let's jump to this next story.
01:27:06.000 We got some Fox weather because weather is interesting.
01:27:09.000 Record-breaking 252 mile an hour wind reading verified from historic hurricane Melissa.
01:27:15.000 Climate change.
01:27:16.000 This is the well, there's a couple funny points to make on this one.
01:27:20.000 I guess it's the it's the previous record high.
01:27:23.000 So it's the what the this is the fastest wind speed recorded for hurricane ever, the strongest wind hurricane ever recorded.
01:27:31.000 No, it's not climate change.
01:27:32.000 It's the pole shift.
01:27:35.000 No, the funny thing is, considering a story like this, you would think climate change would matter, but literally Democrats just don't care at all about climate change.
01:27:42.000 It's not a thing anymore.
01:27:44.000 Bill Gates, Obama, like a handful of big powerful elites were like, yeah, no, I don't know about that anymore.
01:27:48.000 The interesting thing, however, is at the same time, we have a story that we follow because I think it's fun, interesting, and maybe it's not correct or whatever, about this theory of the pole shift.
01:27:59.000 And these weather phenomenon play into it because of the energy that hit the atmosphere from the sun as our magnetics field weakens.
01:28:09.000 And one of the stories we've been talking about quite a bit is the Aurora.
01:28:14.000 Where are you based out of JP?
01:28:15.000 Austin, Texas.
01:28:16.000 Did you see the Aurora?
01:28:17.000 I did not.
01:28:19.000 Because in central Texas, you could see the Aurora Borealis.
01:28:19.000 Do you know people who did?
01:28:22.000 No, I have to say that.
01:28:22.000 That's how crazy it is.
01:28:24.000 All my friends were saying, oh, look at this great gold thing in the sky.
01:28:28.000 And I'm like, my sky's just black.
01:28:30.000 It was cloudy here.
01:28:31.000 It was sad.
01:28:32.000 We got ripped off.
01:28:33.000 Yeah, I think nighttime is just a conspiracy theory.
01:28:36.000 I don't believe in the dark.
01:28:40.000 So, you know, not to harp on this stuff, but we have had the conversation for a little bit.
01:28:47.000 And with the strongest hurricane ever recorded, doesn't mean it's the strongest hurricane ever, but the aurora and these phenomenon, I think it's more interesting to talk about, are we in the end of days?
01:28:57.000 And will the axis shift and the polls shift and then humanity will be wiped out inside the Stone Age?
01:29:01.000 Well, there were no hurricanes that made landfall in the United States.
01:29:05.000 So I think that the United States is not actually going to have to worry about it anymore.
01:29:09.000 I think that this year is an indicator there will be no more hurricanes in the U.S. ever again.
01:29:14.000 We're good.
01:29:14.000 The rest of the world, you guys are screwed.
01:29:16.000 We win again.
01:29:17.000 Yeah, we win.
01:29:18.000 USA.
01:29:19.000 USA.
01:29:21.000 Trump fixed hurricanes.
01:29:22.000 He did.
01:29:23.000 Yeah.
01:29:23.000 Another good thing.
01:29:24.000 Yeah.
01:29:24.000 He's still hitting them with nuclear weapons.
01:29:26.000 And they're just like, we're not doing that again.
01:29:29.000 Hurricanes are cowards.
01:29:30.000 I have this article from Stupid Dope.
01:29:32.000 What would happen if Earth's poles flipped?
01:29:34.000 And it's like, well, one thing you'd notice is that the South Atlantic anomaly would start fluctuating and growing.
01:29:42.000 We just covered that story yesterday that it's now the size of Europe.
01:29:42.000 It is.
01:29:46.000 And it says satellites would be affected by this, which is literally the story.
01:29:51.000 However, we don't got to worry until the satellites start falling and New York City's grid collapses and then environmental chaos begins.
01:29:59.000 Plus, earthquakes, tectonic weirdness, and tsunamis, as well as compass-free living.
01:30:04.000 Sounds like moonfall.
01:30:05.000 Compass-free living.
01:30:06.000 That got way worse.
01:30:07.000 I'm so tired of compasses.
01:30:09.000 You ever like read articles like this and then realize you have to go live or start a segment, Tim?
01:30:13.000 Like, you're like reading these types of articles and you're like, crap, I'm not talking about this on the show today.
01:30:17.000 No, I just do.
01:30:18.000 What do you mean?
01:30:18.000 Here we are.
01:30:19.000 Like, you ever catch yourself reading this stuff before you go live and you're like, crap, it wasn't even what I was going to talk about.
01:30:19.000 Morning show.
01:30:25.000 Not me, Brett.
01:30:26.000 Not me.
01:30:27.000 This is not a relatable phenomenon.
01:30:27.000 Never.
01:30:30.000 I'm reading, you know, usually what happens in the morning is I'm reading all the news and then I'm like, as I'm reading it, I start wanting to talk.
01:30:37.000 And I'm like, what do you mean, Plask gets defending her position?
01:30:39.000 Towards the camera.
01:30:40.000 And like, let's go.
01:30:43.000 These stories, I actually just put in the roster and I'm like, we should talk about the world ending.
01:30:48.000 So is the world ending?
01:30:49.000 I mean, slowly.
01:30:51.000 Yeah, I would think it has to end sometime.
01:30:53.000 I mean, I would imagine.
01:30:55.000 Now it's as good a time as any.
01:30:57.000 I would imagine no time soon, but eventually the sun's going to burn out.
01:31:01.000 So I think the sun will expand and consume Earth before it burns out.
01:31:06.000 Or that, even worse.
01:31:08.000 It becomes a red giant.
01:31:09.000 start growing and then we'll get sucked in and then we're that's why we need to be able to travel interstellar This is why I wanted to talk about Pleuribus, but Brett hasn't seen it.
01:31:22.000 Have you guys seen that show?
01:31:23.000 No.
01:31:23.000 Serge has seen it.
01:31:24.000 I have not.
01:31:25.000 We've been talking about it, and so there's more spoilers for you.
01:31:27.000 But the general, like the articles that are popping up, it's a new Apple Plus TV show, Brett's favorite network, is scientists get a signal from space.
01:31:40.000 They think it's quaternary, and they're like, wait a minute.
01:31:42.000 He figures out it's actually RNA sequence.
01:31:44.000 It turns out to be a virus that links everyone's brains together.
01:31:44.000 They make it.
01:31:49.000 And the main character is this really awful woman.
01:31:53.000 And I'm watching this show and I thought to myself, I think I understand the point of the show.
01:31:58.000 They want us to hate the main character and love the hive mind.
01:32:03.000 So all humans basically become psychically linked and they operate like a single entity.
01:32:08.000 But there's a handful of characters, the main character, and she is insufferable.
01:32:12.000 So what is it about her that's insufferable?
01:32:14.000 Can you give me an example?
01:32:15.000 Yeah.
01:32:18.000 She drinks and it's irrationally emotional.
01:32:22.000 She screams in the face of like, so.
01:32:27.000 She's a woman.
01:32:28.000 That's fine.
01:32:29.000 So that's why she's insufferable.
01:32:29.000 There you go.
01:32:31.000 They literally, the tag for the show is literally, the world's unhappiest woman must save humanity from happiness.
01:32:37.000 Like if you had told me that headline, I was like, not only am I going to not watch it, I'm going to campaign for other people not.
01:32:42.000 Here's what I think the purpose of the show is.
01:32:43.000 It's to make us want to relate to AI.
01:32:47.000 Because what happens is the hive mind people, they'll do anything she wants.
01:32:52.000 There is a collective of all human consciousness that will provide for anything she needs.
01:32:57.000 And she's awful, miserable.
01:33:00.000 And she keeps screaming and just, it's just really, really hard to watch this.
01:33:06.000 You know, no disrespect to the actress, but it's just so miserable to watch her.
01:33:11.000 She's a seahorn who's that.
01:33:12.000 Yeah, you start rooting for the hive mind of humans taken over by an alien mind virus, literally.
01:33:17.000 I will say, I don't know if that's necessarily the purpose, but Vince Gilligan, who's the creator of the show, got his start.
01:33:23.000 Well, not his start, but he was the X-Files, right?
01:33:25.000 And the X-Files, they had a very, very unique process with how they used to write their episodes, which was basically like Chris Carter would have them all put ideas on like three by five note cards, and then they would assign them to people.
01:33:38.000 And then like, what if we did this?
01:33:39.000 But what if we added this?
01:33:41.000 I think that he is just the type of guy that really is enjoying exploring science fiction again, as opposed to doing breaking bad and right, but what I see from this show is the hive mind is basically AI.
01:33:41.000 And then we added this.
01:33:54.000 There's even references made to it, and some people start to speculate where she says something like, you stole that from the mind of someone, which is not a dig at a hive mind, which is a singular hive entity, but it is a dig at an AI, which doesn't actually hold those memories, but copied it from somebody else and integrated into its training model.
01:34:11.000 The show is basically there, anyone she talks to, save like a small handful of people, but almost every like literally every character is one singular entity.
01:34:21.000 And they're like, we'll give you anything you want.
01:34:22.000 And she's like, screw you.
01:34:25.000 And she like swings at it.
01:34:26.000 It's just like, what are you doing?
01:34:28.000 It seems like I don't want to get into the predictive programming conspiracy stuff, but if you were to watch a show like this, your takeaway is, but the hive is just trying to help and it's so nice and giving.
01:34:39.000 And this woman is being so unreasonable.
01:34:42.000 I love AI.
01:34:43.000 All it does is answer my questions and say nice things to me and tell me how handsome I am.
01:34:47.000 It's here to protect you and serve you.
01:34:49.000 And additionally, it gives her whatever she wants, even if it's dangerous.
01:34:55.000 And there's a particular scene where, you know, spoilers, guys, sorry, where there's 12 people on the planet, I guess 13 now, who are immune out of the billions.
01:35:06.000 And one guy shows up on Air Force One with a bunch of models that he's just banging because the hive will do anything they say, which makes no sense.
01:35:14.000 Why would the hive mind care about them?
01:35:16.000 It would be like they're anomalous.
01:35:18.000 Ignore them.
01:35:19.000 But anyway, she gets mad and she's like, is this okay that he's banging you?
01:35:24.000 And they're like, we always welcome pleasure.
01:35:27.000 And it's like, you have a hive mind that will make food for you, fly jets for you.
01:35:31.000 It will give you anything you want.
01:35:32.000 It will give you guns, weapons, cars, and it will allow you to have any kind of deviant sexual fetish.
01:35:38.000 I'm like, they're talking about the AI machine they're building.
01:35:42.000 And they want us.
01:35:43.000 This guy goes, he looks at it, goes, I don't believe this is the end of the world.
01:35:48.000 They used the word AI in the show.
01:35:51.000 Actually, that's good then.
01:35:52.000 Like, so one of my critiques of AI in Hollywood right now is that everybody's so terrified of it as a matter of like losing their jobs that they're so close to the material that they don't know how to write it with a deft hand.
01:36:03.000 So if that is indeed the purpose, I will give him a lot of credit.
01:36:07.000 I would hate the, I would never watch a show with a main character that annoying.
01:36:09.000 I didn't have the threshold for it.
01:36:11.000 It makes no sense why if every human on the planet became a hive, they would cater to your every whim.
01:36:17.000 Unless the insinuation is they're creating a facsimile of what it's like for a person to ask AI who has access to all of these things that can fly planes for you, it can drive cars for you, it can cook for you, and it can give you whatever deviant fetish experience you want.
01:36:32.000 And this guy she meets, he says, no one is being murdered or raped.
01:36:37.000 There's no more wars.
01:36:38.000 We have whatever we want.
01:36:40.000 The earth is healing.
01:36:41.000 Power is being saved.
01:36:42.000 It doesn't seem like the end of the world to me.
01:36:44.000 And she's like, what is wrong with you?
01:36:46.000 I hate to have you.
01:36:48.000 And then she like passes out drunk.
01:36:49.000 And then every time she has a panic tech screaming, she causes the hive to short circuit and frits out, which results in, results in people over the world dying.
01:36:58.000 This is what I think of when I see Elon today being like, and AI is going to make everybody wealthy.
01:37:03.000 And we're all going to, yeah, like that's what I think of.
01:37:05.000 He's right, though, when you plug your brain into the Matrix and you live in a fake Matrix reality.
01:37:10.000 So you have monopoly money in the Matrix.
01:37:12.000 This is what I was thinking when I was watching this show.
01:37:14.000 I'm like, they're basically telling you, if you could plug your brain in to a virtual experience where you were a king or a godlike entity, enjoy it.
01:37:26.000 You go into your pod, you jam the tube down your throat, right?
01:37:30.000 So that can pump the food mush into your stomach.
01:37:32.000 That you plug in and then you're sitting there all gaunt and pale.
01:37:39.000 But in your mind, you are maybe a professional race car driver, you know, professional race car driver in the Arkham Menard series, really good at left turns.
01:37:50.000 When in reality, you're just a fat, slovenly pig sitting on your couch watching TV.
01:37:53.000 That could be happening right now.
01:37:56.000 That could be my reality.
01:37:57.000 I'm just a gaunt little pill battery.
01:38:01.000 It's like, how did I do all this?
01:38:02.000 How did I get copper tie?
01:38:03.000 So would you, would you guys, if there was a non-invasive, have you guys seen the Black Mirror episode where they put the thing on their temple and then they go into the video game or whatever?
01:38:13.000 If that existed, would you buy it?
01:38:14.000 100%.
01:38:15.000 I would too.
01:38:16.000 I'd be an ARCA race car driver in the Timcast car.
01:38:16.000 I would not.
01:38:19.000 I'd play NASCAR and I'd be like, look at me, I'm Cody Dennison.
01:38:23.000 I remember that episode greatly.
01:38:26.000 I would play the JP Sears YouTube video game.
01:38:29.000 I'd be like, look at me, I'm JP Sears.
01:38:31.000 I'm making jokes on YouTube.
01:38:32.000 That's not how I talk, Tim.
01:38:35.000 Please.
01:38:37.000 Theoretically, somebody could be playing you.
01:38:38.000 They could be like, I want to be a podcast.
01:38:40.000 This is the joke I made.
01:38:41.000 Like, for all you know, like, you're not some famous podcaster with a massive live audience.
01:38:45.000 You're some fat loser sitting on this couch and everybody hates you.
01:38:48.000 I mean, that's me anyway.
01:38:49.000 You just left your thing on for way too long.
01:38:51.000 Yeah.
01:38:52.000 Yeah, it's like 10 minutes, but it seems like 20 years.
01:38:54.000 Yeah.
01:38:55.000 You just wake up, you're like, out of your Oscar.
01:38:57.000 The Mandela effect is just server patches.
01:38:59.000 It's like, forgot to update the memory on that one.
01:38:59.000 Yep.
01:39:02.000 Would you guys do it?
01:39:04.000 I don't know.
01:39:05.000 I mean, it seems.
01:39:07.000 I don't know.
01:39:08.000 Maybe it's because I'm old and I have a kid now.
01:39:10.000 I'm like, I'm not sure.
01:39:11.000 If it was non-invasive, like getting a Neuralink surgically implanted, it's out of the question.
01:39:16.000 But like in Black Mirror, it's like you put on your temple and you.
01:39:19.000 Oh, so it's not the chip in the brain.
01:39:22.000 No, in the show, they sit on the couch, grab a controller, which kind of makes no sense, actually.
01:39:27.000 Why were they grabbing the controller?
01:39:29.000 Wasn't he grabbing?
01:39:30.000 No, no, that was before.
01:39:32.000 And then he buys the thing, plugs it in.
01:39:34.000 The problem with that episode was it was just about two black dudes who had sex with each other in a video game where he was an Asian woman and the other guy was an Asian guy.
01:39:44.000 Sure, I guess.
01:39:45.000 I loved it.
01:39:47.000 It's like, Asians.
01:39:48.000 What?
01:39:49.000 Batman Forever when Jim Carrey gives everybody the box that they can put on their heads so that they can be in the TV.
01:39:55.000 Yep.
01:39:55.000 Well, that just, all that did was make the, all that was was a 3D TV.
01:40:00.000 Like in that movie, they put a thing on their forehead and then the TV becomes 3D and it makes them retarded.
01:40:05.000 Well, they start because they, well, the idea is supposed to be like they feel like they're inside of it and they don't want to be anywhere else.
01:40:10.000 Is that what it was?
01:40:11.000 Yeah.
01:40:11.000 Oh.
01:40:11.000 Yep.
01:40:12.000 See, that's the kind of thing that would have me a no.
01:40:16.000 I think a lot of people, including myself to an extent, it's like we're allergic to discomfort and life is filled with uncomfortable experiences.
01:40:25.000 And personally, I think life just, it flows better.
01:40:29.000 We get more fulfilled if we embrace uncomfortable experiences.
01:40:34.000 So escaping into a reality, I think that could quickly become a form of addiction.
01:40:40.000 I mean, people become addicted to the video.
01:40:43.000 That's the thing.
01:40:43.000 The problem then isn't the medium, it's the addiction.
01:40:46.000 Yes.
01:40:47.000 I don't drink.
01:40:48.000 I might have a glass of wine once per year.
01:40:50.000 You know, the holidays are coming up.
01:40:51.000 I'm not opposed to drinking.
01:40:53.000 I just don't enjoy it, but I'll have some.
01:40:55.000 The problem isn't having a drink.
01:40:57.000 The problem is drinking all day, every day.
01:41:01.000 You could be addicted to things like eating spaghetti and you'll get malnourished.
01:41:06.000 I saw one story like 10 years ago where a guy, all he did was eat sushi and then he died from mercury poisoning.
01:41:12.000 It's like all good things, you know what I mean?
01:41:14.000 Like, you got to slow down there.
01:41:15.000 I think for myself, I know I have a very addictive personality, and that's got a positive side, like good work ethic, but also like just knowing myself, it's like, I wouldn't want the temptation.
01:41:27.000 But it's a video game.
01:41:28.000 That's the point.
01:41:29.000 I don't play video games either for the same reason.
01:41:32.000 I don't really play all that often as much as I used to.
01:41:34.000 Today I was Cody Dennison, and I was driving the Timcast truck and race car, and I was pit maneuvering everybody and just knocking them out.
01:41:40.000 And it was funny because Cody knows all these guys, and you see their name as I destroy their car in his image.
01:41:46.000 It's funny.
01:41:47.000 And by the way, that guy deserves it.
01:41:49.000 If any of the other racers are watching this, Cody said he hates you all.
01:41:55.000 He said you can't drive for crap.
01:41:57.000 You can't knock him out on the racetrack.
01:41:59.000 He's looking at you, Frankie Muniz.
01:42:01.000 All right, we're going to go to your rants and chats.
01:42:04.000 So smash the like button.
01:42:05.000 Share the show with everyone you know.
01:42:07.000 Call grandma.
01:42:08.000 The holidays are coming up.
01:42:10.000 And after you say happy Thanksgiving, say, and by the way, go watch Timcast IRL.
01:42:13.000 That's right.
01:42:14.000 Before we do, though, we got a great sponsor.
01:42:15.000 It is Backyard Butchers.
01:42:17.000 Go to BackyardButchers.com.
01:42:19.000 Use promo code Tim.
01:42:21.000 This Thanksgiving, it's all about family, American tradition, and great food.
01:42:25.000 And Serge, do you want to pull this up?
01:42:27.000 And if there's one thing we all agree on, big ag shouldn't sit at your holiday table.
01:42:31.000 That's right.
01:42:32.000 Big Ag, like Big Pharma, has tried to infiltrate the food system with genetically modified food and hormones that affect your family's health and our children's future.
01:42:39.000 That's what Backyard Butchers is stepping in early this season to make sure American families can feed their loved ones the way tradition intended.
01:42:46.000 This Thanksgiving, say no to feed lot mystery meat.
01:42:49.000 No to big ag chemicals and hormones.
01:42:52.000 Buy from backyard butchers, real ranch-raised beef, and real American families from real American families who still believe in doing things right.
01:42:59.000 It's beef.
01:43:00.000 It's hormone-free, grass-fed, pasture-raised, handled with pride, not genetically modified.
01:43:05.000 Because American tradition deserves better than big ag meat.
01:43:07.000 And yes, your grandmother would approve.
01:43:09.000 She believed in food that had integrity and meat that came from ranchers and not conglomerates.
01:43:14.000 So make grandma proud this Thanksgiving and kick big ag out of the kitchen by getting meat raised right from backyard butchers.
01:43:20.000 Right now, backyard butchers are offering up to 30% off plus a free turkey or ham with your purchase.
01:43:25.000 That's 30% off.
01:43:26.000 And your Thanksgiving turkey or ham, it's on them.
01:43:29.000 Order at backyardbutchers.com.
01:43:31.000 Use promo code Tim.
01:43:32.000 I promise it will be a feast your family will remember.
01:43:35.000 American tradition, American meat, backyard butchers.
01:43:37.000 Shout out.
01:43:38.000 Thanks for sponsoring the show, guys.
01:43:40.000 And me, I'm thinking about getting a ribeye this Thanksgiving season.
01:43:45.000 I am not a fan of turkey.
01:43:46.000 No.
01:43:47.000 Neither.
01:43:48.000 Ribeye, it is.
01:43:48.000 Turkey.
01:43:49.000 Take some break.
01:43:50.000 It's okay because the sandwich is the next day.
01:43:52.000 I eat it at Thanksgiving.
01:43:54.000 That's like the only time of the year I have to.
01:43:55.000 I am not even a fan of the sandwiches.
01:43:57.000 No?
01:43:58.000 Well, to be fair, oven gold turkey, boar's head, with some cheddar cheese on an onion roll cannot be beat.
01:44:06.000 It's nice.
01:44:07.000 But let's grab your chats and rants.
01:44:11.000 Krent says, Phil, my daughter turned 12 today and is a huge All That Remains fan.
01:44:15.000 Can she get a happy birthday?
01:44:16.000 Happy birthday.
01:44:17.000 She got anti-fragile on vinyl and lost her mind.
01:44:20.000 What's her name?
01:44:20.000 That's awesome.
01:44:21.000 I wish that you put her name so I could wish her a happy birthday.
01:44:24.000 Her name is Phil Ina.
01:44:25.000 I'm kidding.
01:44:27.000 Happy birthday to you.
01:44:29.000 Cupcake says, thank you, JP, for coming to Spokane.
01:44:31.000 Hope to see you again soon.
01:44:33.000 Seeing Scott Pressler tonight, fighting to secure WA state elections.
01:44:37.000 Keep it the good fight, everybody.
01:44:39.000 Right.
01:44:39.000 Thank you for that.
01:44:42.000 Black Nexus says Republicans wouldn't even censure someone that colluded with Epstein to launch a fake impeachment against Trump.
01:44:48.000 Ilhan Omar isn't deported.
01:44:50.000 They won't do anything to Hillary.
01:44:51.000 We wasted our votes.
01:44:53.000 Well, I don't know that you wasted your vote so much that you didn't have anything else to vote for.
01:44:58.000 Well, and there was more stuff to it than just those things, right?
01:45:01.000 You didn't just vote for that.
01:45:03.000 Yeah.
01:45:05.000 All right.
01:45:06.000 James Smith Politics says, Cody's Origins Online was talking about his horrible experience working at GameStop.
01:45:11.000 It is, yeah.
01:45:13.000 It was very random.
01:45:14.000 I just was like, I'm going to put up YouTube videos, and I put out a video talking about GameStop.
01:45:19.000 I saw this guy, he had a video out, and he's like, I worked at GameStop.
01:45:22.000 And I watched it and he worked there for like a month or two.
01:45:25.000 And I was like, well, damn, I worked there 11 years.
01:45:26.000 Wow.
01:45:27.000 And my manager used to bring escorts to the back of a store.
01:45:32.000 If you're listening, if you're bringing the back of the store, they're not escorts.
01:45:36.000 They're not escorts.
01:45:38.000 I was, you know, I complained to our regional, but he was like, he was like a 500-pound guy.
01:45:41.000 He was like a big dude.
01:45:42.000 And he was like, and he was just the 500-pound guy was bringing escorts in.
01:45:46.000 Yeah, into the back room at GameStop.
01:45:47.000 And he would do the craziest things.
01:45:49.000 I mean, it was all like a movie.
01:45:50.000 He dropped his e-break and put his car in the river to get the insurance off of it one time.
01:45:56.000 The dude was a wild guy.
01:45:58.000 Anyways, he's living life on 10.
01:45:59.000 Yeah, so I put a video out talking about that kind of stuff.
01:46:02.000 And yeah, I've been doing YouTube ever since.
01:46:05.000 Bat Who Laughs says Stacey Plaskett received maximum political donations from Jeffrey Epstein.
01:46:09.000 Business Insider wrote an article on it back in 2023.
01:46:12.000 That's what I'm saying.
01:46:13.000 My opinion is that she was working for Epstein.
01:46:16.000 He paid the way she did what she was told.
01:46:19.000 Data says, and to what you said about the X purchase, Mr. Timcast, remember, Mr. Musk put a $1 million award for anyone to give tip on the programmer responsible on the problems inside the code.
01:46:30.000 Hmm.
01:46:32.000 Interesting.
01:46:34.000 David Flores says DOJ just charged a Democrat from Florida with stealing $5 million in FEMA funds to fund her Democrat campaign, no less, and get a seat in Congress.
01:46:44.000 That's the name of the game, isn't it?
01:46:48.000 Let's see.
01:46:49.000 Rofflo says, Tim, since you seem to like it as much as I do, if you don't know, a new Stargate series has been announced.
01:46:55.000 Not many details yet, but it's happening.
01:46:57.000 I saw that today.
01:46:58.000 Stargate fans.
01:47:00.000 You think you're real Stargate fans?
01:47:02.000 It's embarrassing.
01:47:03.000 I'm just going to point out that I received a text from the Coronemic letting me know they were relaunching Stargate.
01:47:11.000 So I'm just kidding, by the way, but shout out to Corin.
01:47:13.000 We had him on the show and we had one of the best, the best bits we've ever done with Cast Castle, which was we filmed the skit where Ian was convinced Stargate is real.
01:47:24.000 And when Corin came on the show, he was just like, this guy's crazy.
01:47:27.000 I'm an actor.
01:47:28.000 It's not real.
01:47:29.000 And but Ian kept being like, I don't know, man.
01:47:33.000 I'm going to go through the Stargate, man.
01:47:34.000 And he's like, there's no Stargate.
01:47:36.000 It was a prop.
01:47:37.000 And then by the end of the bit, we're like, hey, man, it was really great to have you on the show.
01:47:41.000 Come back anytime.
01:47:42.000 And he's like, all good.
01:47:43.000 Well, I'll see you guys later.
01:47:44.000 And he walks out the door.
01:47:45.000 And then you see him looking towards the camera.
01:47:49.000 And then he goes to his watch and he goes, We're good.
01:47:51.000 Ian thinks it's fake now.
01:47:53.000 And then you see the light from the Stargate open up.
01:47:55.000 And then he walks through.
01:47:56.000 Those are early days.
01:47:58.000 Yeah, that was like three years ago.
01:47:59.000 That was fun.
01:48:01.000 Stargate was real.
01:48:02.000 Yeah, and then we had Marjorie Tip.
01:48:04.000 We played Magic the Gathering with Marjorie Taylor Green.
01:48:07.000 Those were fun days.
01:48:08.000 Those were fun days.
01:48:10.000 I have watched some Stargate.
01:48:11.000 I'll never give in to Star Trek, but I did find a lot of SG1 compelling.
01:48:16.000 Stargate SG-1 is amazing.
01:48:19.000 Just an absolutely incredible show.
01:48:22.000 It's very much one of these shows where they explore the philosophical consequences of technology and certain decisions.
01:48:29.000 One episode, for instance, there's a planet where, for those that are the problems of the show, there's a gate, they put in random coordinates, and then it brings them to another gate on another planet or something.
01:48:40.000 They go to one where the probe sees nothing, but then as it moves forward, all of a sudden it's in like a normal-looking little town.
01:48:46.000 And when they go there, there's like, oh, there's only a thousand people who live here.
01:48:50.000 And then they watch somebody just zonk out and then just walk out to their death into the, there's basically a force field keeping air safe to breathe.
01:49:00.000 And outside, it's like you'll die from a from a environment, some kind of environmental disaster.
01:49:05.000 Anyway, it's a 20-year-old show.
01:49:06.000 So here's the show's premise.
01:49:08.000 They find out that there is a central AI that is wirelessly controlling people to commit suicide because as the power depletes, the force field shrinks and they can't sustain the population levels.
01:49:23.000 Then they erase everyone's memory of that person having existed.
01:49:26.000 So they're like, we've always been a thousand people.
01:49:29.000 And then they go in the logs and it turns out it used to be millions, but as the power is breaking down and the field is shrinking, it's just deleting people.
01:49:36.000 Great show.
01:49:37.000 I'm glad it wasn't COVID killing.
01:49:39.000 I was worried about that.
01:49:40.000 Maybe that was still M.
01:49:41.000 It's a we're in the middle of a pandemic, people.
01:49:44.000 Right now, please get serious about this.
01:49:46.000 Six feet apart.
01:49:48.000 All right, what do you got here?
01:49:49.000 Bueno Malio says the Simpsons episode about big squashing changing the future would have been inspired by A Sound of Thunder by Ray Bradbury.
01:49:58.000 The episode where Hummer makes a time travel toaster and then he goes back in time and then he kills the bug and goes, oops, and then finally he snaps, just starts smashing everything and destroying it.
01:50:07.000 And then he finally makes it back to a future where everything seems normal, but they're all eating with their super long lizard tongues or frog tongues or whatever.
01:50:15.000 Yeah, he comes back to the future and everything seems normal.
01:50:18.000 Or no, one of the futures he goes to, he's like, Tell me, Marge, do we have this?
01:50:24.000 Do we have that?
01:50:24.000 She's like, yes, yes, it's fine.
01:50:25.000 And he goes, oh, great.
01:50:27.000 Now pass me a donut.
01:50:28.000 She goes, what's a donut?
01:50:29.000 He goes, ah!
01:50:30.000 He runs back downstairs, hits the toaster, and then she looks out the window, and donuts start falling from the sky.
01:50:34.000 And she goes, oh, it's raining again.
01:50:37.000 The early Simpsons were the best.
01:50:40.000 What's a donut?
01:50:42.000 And they, they basically, tons of the, like, the way everybody talks is based on The Simpsons.
01:50:47.000 People don't know this.
01:50:48.000 Meh, right?
01:50:49.000 When people go, meh, that's Simpsons.
01:50:51.000 They made that up.
01:50:52.000 They made up the grunt, meh.
01:50:55.000 That's wild.
01:50:55.000 And Yoink was made up.
01:50:58.000 There's a whole bunch of other things.
01:50:59.000 Quiet part loud is made up by The Simpsons.
01:51:02.000 There was like a really interesting tweet.
01:51:03.000 I just pulled it up from like, I think it was like two weeks ago where a guy says The Simpsons is the ultimate boomer program because it tries to freeze time around their lives with increasingly absurd results.
01:51:13.000 Marge is supposed to be 34, but she was 34 in 1989.
01:51:17.000 Meaning she was born in 1959, so she is 1955, so she's canonically 70 in the show.
01:51:23.000 And Maggie is around 36.
01:51:25.000 Skinner is a middle-aged man with a still-living mother, and apparently he served in Vietnam.
01:51:29.000 Yeah.
01:51:30.000 Like, none of this works, but for its generation that still don't see themselves as old.
01:51:35.000 Yeah.
01:51:35.000 Yep.
01:51:36.000 You know, it's interesting.
01:51:38.000 Fairly odd parents solved this problem.
01:51:41.000 You know how they solved it?
01:51:43.000 There's an episode where it's revealed Timmy Turner made a wish to be 10 years old forever and it's been 50 years and no one's aged and the world just stays the same because the show's been on the air for like 20 years or whatever.
01:51:54.000 That right now.
01:51:55.000 Now I think, what is it?
01:51:57.000 They added a young black girl and now Timmy and this young black girl have to share the fairies.
01:52:02.000 Is that what?
01:52:03.000 Where is it?
01:52:04.000 Where is it on?
01:52:05.000 Probably Nickelodeon or something.
01:52:06.000 Nickelodeon.
01:52:07.000 Yep.
01:52:08.000 All right.
01:52:08.000 Mason says, Massey is what I want every congressman to be like when this war is when this war with the Democrats is over.
01:52:15.000 Indeed.
01:52:16.000 Do you hear that, Phil?
01:52:18.000 Yeah.
01:52:18.000 I mean, look, I'm a Thomas Massey fan.
01:52:20.000 Well, you're a bigger McConnell fan from what I understand.
01:52:25.000 All right.
01:52:26.000 F it button says, Nick has some decent takes.
01:52:28.000 This ain't one of them.
01:52:29.000 And is the core.
01:52:30.000 You really shouldn't estimate how stupid his viewers are.
01:52:33.000 They know nothing and demand and embrace power.
01:52:35.000 Sound familiar.
01:52:37.000 I'm going to put it like this.
01:52:38.000 The easiest thing for a politician to do to gain power is to say, it's not your fault.
01:52:43.000 Someone else did something bad to you.
01:52:45.000 And the problem for the left is that they said white people bad because they wanted to create a villain to rally these other demographics around.
01:52:55.000 For Nick, he utilized a very similar world political point.
01:53:00.000 That's why I'm not a fan of calling it necessarily woke to say this.
01:53:03.000 Accuse someone of wronging you, demagogue.
01:53:06.000 It's been done by every world leader all the time.
01:53:08.000 They accuse Trump of doing it, and Trump's not a leftist.
01:53:10.000 Nick is basically saying to the young white men, the left is doing this and/or the special interests.
01:53:17.000 It's not your fault.
01:53:18.000 We have to take the power back from them.
01:53:21.000 And so then you'll get a large base to rally around it.
01:53:24.000 Nobody wants to say it's my fault.
01:53:27.000 But I will tell you this.
01:53:28.000 If every problem you experience, you blame yourself for, you will be much more successful than those who blame others.
01:53:36.000 I literally just did a video on this.
01:53:38.000 Like, I did a video about Lucy Liu saying, like, part of her, if you don't know who Lucy Lou was, she was in Kill Bill.
01:53:43.000 She was in the Charlie's Angels movies.
01:53:45.000 And she did a, like, she was talking about how like her be like her race played a role in her career like stalling out.
01:53:51.000 And like, first of all, you've had a charmed career over like three decades and most actors would kill to have the career that you've had.
01:53:58.000 But if you, if you let other people, if you let people that you believe wronged you because of your race, if you give them that power, you're automatically kind of acquiescing to their worldview, right?
01:54:08.000 Maybe it's true, maybe it's not, but taking ownership of what happens to you, both good and bad, can only benefit you in the long run because it keeps you from surrendering that power to other people.
01:54:19.000 Jocko Willick wrote a book called Extreme Ownership.
01:54:21.000 That's basically.
01:54:22.000 So my lesson from my dad was when I was a freshman in high school, which was only about two months, mind you, I was walking to school and part of the reason I hated high school is they we went from 7.30 a.m.
01:54:34.000 To 230 p.m.
01:54:36.000 Class and then the high school was like, I got an idea, let's have the freshman come at 11 a.m.
01:54:40.000 And leave at 5, 45 p.m.
01:54:42.000 And it was like a hormonal shock to everybody.
01:54:46.000 Like you don't wake up that early.
01:54:48.000 We're sitting around, there's nothing but daytime TV on.
01:54:50.000 We have no idea what's going on, but anyway.
01:54:52.000 So I'm walking to school and it's like 1030 and a train comes.
01:54:56.000 So I sit down and wait and the train keeps going by and the train stops and I'm sitting there for like a half an hour and I'm like oh, there's a train.
01:55:04.000 And then finally the train clears.
01:55:05.000 I get to, I get to school and they're like you're late.
01:55:07.000 That's a detention and I had to get it signed by my parents and I told my dad I was like the train came, it's not my fault, and he goes.
01:55:14.000 You know, the train tracks are there.
01:55:16.000 You should have left early.
01:55:17.000 And that's a great lesson, because it's true if, if now, I didn't care for school, so I was like I don't care, I didn't go to detention.
01:55:26.000 So then they gave me a Saturday.
01:55:27.000 So they gave me a Saturday detention.
01:55:28.000 I didn't go to that either, and then I dropped out.
01:55:30.000 So anyway.
01:55:32.000 But if you have an obligation and then you get into traffic and go it's not my fault, there was traffic you will be less successful than the guy who says, I better account for the traffic, so I'm not late.
01:55:43.000 Yeah, I feel like that's part of like one of the issues with like podcasting and stuff like that.
01:55:48.000 They need stuff to talk about and, like you said, Jocko Wilnick has he's he's got the radical ownership taken, so somebody else has to go somewhere else and talk about something else and they have to go to blaming other people for what they think the problem is.
01:55:59.000 But if you're talking internally, the best thing you can do for yourself is to hold yourself radically responsible for all of your actions.
01:56:06.000 Maybe it isn't your fault sometimes, but you're going to be much, much better off if you take responsibility for.
01:56:11.000 The idea is this, obviously it's not my fault.
01:56:13.000 A train shut up unexpectedly and then stopped.
01:56:15.000 We didn't know it was going to happen.
01:56:16.000 But if we approach all of these circumstances from.
01:56:19.000 How do I mitigate a potential problem?
01:56:21.000 Then you will be better off.
01:56:22.000 Being on time is being 15 minutes early.
01:56:24.000 That's right.
01:56:25.000 We got Edgy Gay Retard who says I had someone use.
01:56:25.000 Here we go.
01:56:29.000 The Illegals actually commit less crimes than the average American line on me today.
01:56:33.000 I actually agree with this uh, the sentiment.
01:56:35.000 I also think the value of a group of people is linked to how much crime they commit.
01:56:39.000 I think somebody just logged into my alt account.
01:56:43.000 Jason Dixon says Tim, shout out the discord and the pre-show third chair with Slick and Olivia.
01:56:48.000 Question for Tim, who is your favorite cast member and why is it Surge?
01:56:51.000 Because he presses the buttons.
01:56:55.000 She sounds great.
01:56:55.000 I like that, Olivia.
01:56:57.000 Indeed.
01:56:58.000 The one free man says welfare should never be incentivized.
01:57:01.000 Agreed.
01:57:02.000 And the Trump admin says they're going to overhaul Snap.
01:57:05.000 They're going to make everyone have to reapply.
01:57:07.000 We'll see.
01:57:08.000 Which is wow.
01:57:10.000 Government workers are just turning gray right now.
01:57:12.000 Well, apparently there was a bunch of dead people that were on it as well.
01:57:14.000 Yep.
01:57:15.000 David Molin-Narolo.
01:57:17.000 Tim, this is for you.
01:57:18.000 Amazon Prime will be producing a brand new Stargate series with the original producers within the same universe as the original series, which means cameos from classic characters.
01:57:27.000 I am down for it.
01:57:29.000 What a great show.
01:57:31.000 One of the funnier elements of the show is that life forms can like ascend, like they become beings of pure energy and go to like a higher plane or something.
01:57:38.000 It's a great show.
01:57:39.000 I love it.
01:57:41.000 Let's go.
01:57:41.000 Also, Star Trek Next Generation, Star Trek never got its proper sequel, so I'm a bit bummed.
01:57:49.000 When they did Picard, it was kind of supposed to be like What's After Next Generation?
01:57:53.000 And it just turned into fan service.
01:57:55.000 And then they went back in time and Trump's presidency led to a dictatorship.
01:57:59.000 And it's just like, okay, I'm not going to watch this.
01:58:01.000 There are rumors going around that Kurtzman's going to be out and that they're going to be taking Star Trek a different direction now that David Ellison's in charge over there.
01:58:08.000 I think what we need to do is just lead a peaceful revolt to Disney and demand that they burn all new Star Wars, like just all the data files and computers.
01:58:22.000 We will dance around the fire of the sequel movies and all the stupid shows they've done.
01:58:27.000 I suppose Andor and Rogue One can stay, but then we'll say, we'll act like none of these things ever happened and do a new sequel to Return of the Jedi, which makes more sense and is more interesting.
01:58:37.000 So yeah, you can make it on AI on our platform now.
01:58:37.000 Yes.
01:58:40.000 I will.
01:58:41.000 And what's going to happen is when Disney launches their Creator's Corner, which they've talked about doing now, you were sending me that article.
01:58:46.000 It's funny.
01:58:46.000 We were talking about this with Zachary Levi, and then Brett sends me an article where Disney is actually planning.
01:58:51.000 A couple days later.
01:58:53.000 Yep.
01:58:53.000 They're planning an AI function.
01:58:55.000 We predicted this.
01:58:56.000 They're planning an AI function on Disney Plus where you can make whatever you want with their characters.
01:59:00.000 I think they're ahead of schedule from what you predicted, too.
01:59:02.000 That's the crazy part.
01:59:04.000 I mean, maybe.
01:59:05.000 What did I say?
01:59:05.000 Like a year or two?
01:59:06.000 I think he said, yeah, two years.
01:59:07.000 Two years.
01:59:08.000 I think two years is still a safe bet, but maybe I'm crazy.
01:59:11.000 I mean, this Sora 2 stuff is getting nuts.
01:59:13.000 All these companies are investing in AI.
01:59:16.000 You know what I'm going to do?
01:59:17.000 I'm going to have, I think what will happen is you'll create an account on Disney and you'll have followers because this is what Sora is already doing.
01:59:24.000 I predicted this.
01:59:25.000 Sora, when you sign up for ChatGPT's fake video thing, you get an at handle and people follow the AI videos you make.
01:59:33.000 It's going to be like, I'm going to go on Disney and I'm going to say, okay, we are going to fix Revenge of the Sith.
01:59:39.000 First of all, we're deleting Phantom Menace, gone.
01:59:42.000 We're starting with Clone Wars.
01:59:45.000 We're putting a movie in between, which is the actual Clone Wars.
01:59:48.000 Then we're going to do Revenge of the Sith.
01:59:50.000 And so I'm going to do that.
01:59:52.000 But I'm also going to have short films that fix a whole bunch of movies.
01:59:56.000 There's going to be The Empire Did Nothing Wrong.
01:59:58.000 Also, Sauron is the good guy.
02:00:01.000 Sauron is the good guy.
02:00:02.000 It's all propaganda.
02:00:03.000 Sauron is the good guy.
02:00:04.000 You know why?
02:00:05.000 Why?
02:00:07.000 See, what's happening is Middle Earth is chaos.
02:00:10.000 Warring tribes and factions, petty squabbling.
02:00:13.000 The dwarves, what are they doing?
02:00:14.000 Mining to their deaths, unleashing giant monsters?
02:00:17.000 Sauron's like, okay, we need to order.
02:00:19.000 And so what he decides is he gets a bunch of elves, he trains them so they understand we are going to create a functional system and stop having this bickering.
02:00:29.000 What do they do?
02:00:30.000 What do the elves do?
02:00:31.000 They write this propaganda and they write the orcs are, you know, Uruk Hai are all monsters.
02:00:37.000 Of course, just like how they depict Donald Trump as a white supremacist, when we all know that's not true, my joke is it would be fun to make alternate propaganda versions of how Sauron was the good guy and how the Empire were good.
02:00:51.000 Just fix all these things, you know?
02:00:53.000 I'm going to have a good time doing it.
02:00:53.000 I like it.
02:00:55.000 All right, let's grab some more super chats.
02:00:58.000 The Redneck Kipster says, Hillary's offspring is aesthetically displeasing that a, what is I, a blue jay from the courts?
02:01:06.000 I don't know what that means.
02:01:08.000 I don't, I don't know what that sentence is.
02:01:10.000 Anyway, the first part I understood.
02:01:13.000 David Bricken says, Ghylaine Maxwell was at Chelsea Clinton's wedding in 2017.
02:01:18.000 There's photos of her at the wedding.
02:01:20.000 That proves it.
02:01:21.000 It does.
02:01:21.000 That connects everything right there.
02:01:23.000 Even the Mandela effect.
02:01:25.000 Yeah.
02:01:25.000 Case closed.
02:01:27.000 I think we've solved it.
02:01:30.000 Jakal says, Jackal, BR.
02:01:33.000 Interesting.
02:01:33.000 I do not have my local reps' personal phone number to text when I want to collude.
02:01:38.000 The funny thing is, like, I tried to make a joke that's not normal to be able to do that, but I actually personally know Riley voted for him.
02:01:44.000 He's a good dude.
02:01:45.000 I think he's doing a great job.
02:01:46.000 I do have my personal rep's phone number too.
02:01:50.000 Yeah.
02:01:51.000 So there's that.
02:01:52.000 Well, I guess there's a big club and we're in it.
02:01:55.000 Just you guys are in it.
02:01:56.000 You two are in it.
02:01:58.000 All right, let's go.
02:01:59.000 Random username says FYI YouTube won't let me comment on your videos again.
02:02:03.000 This was a thing during Biden, stopped being a thing since Trump and now has started again.
02:02:07.000 That proves it.
02:02:09.000 I don't know what it proves, but something's getting proved.
02:02:12.000 Prove in.
02:02:13.000 All right, what do we have here?
02:02:15.000 Mr. Gur says, if Kamala had won, you'd know this is what you want.
02:02:19.000 What, Stargate?
02:02:21.000 What did he say?
02:02:22.000 I don't know.

02:04:46.000 So remember we did that Elon Musk song that was really great?
02:04:50.000 Actually, I'm going to pull it out.
02:04:51.000 I'm going to pull it up.
02:04:52.000 Breathing Elon's Musk because I thoroughly enjoyed it.
02:05:03.000 460,000 views.
02:05:20.000 Now we're all breathing Elon's mus named as Pipcandals under roads.
02:05:31.000 Neural acin every skull.
02:05:38.000 AI honest red.
02:05:39.000 I love that song.
02:05:40.000 That's great.
02:05:41.000 Well, he made a new one, and I think probably because we shouted him out.
02:05:45.000 Shout out to Skybrows.
02:05:47.000 We shouted out the video because it was really good.
02:05:49.000 He made a new one called Joe's Rogan, and it's about Joe growing hair.
02:05:56.000 I should really unmute.
02:05:57.000 He's a big fan of cat girls.
02:06:01.000 It's a meme reference to Elon and Joe, I guess.
02:06:06.000 Spotify warps, headlines, numbers.
02:06:14.000 Look at that.
02:06:14.000 Stealth Darm made a cameo.
02:06:16.000 Hypermectin horses.
02:06:17.000 Jamie, shut the bleep up, no time to waste.
02:06:23.000 Cold guns on a glorious sheen.
02:06:26.000 Stem cells grow, repair the seams.
02:06:29.000 Carnivore fueled, kettlebell swings.
02:06:31.000 It's entirely possible, Jim Rogan's Rogan.
02:06:51.000 I was thinking, like, was it meant to be me?
02:06:55.000 I think so.
02:06:59.000 Joe's Rogan.
02:07:00.000 I don't think so, though.
02:07:04.000 Jamie, pull that.
02:07:05.000 Oh, that is me.
02:07:06.000 Yeah, it's me.
02:07:07.000 Yeah, I'm wearing the hoodie.
02:07:11.000 That's not, but it's meant to be.
02:07:13.000 That is the hoodie that I wear sometimes, I think.
02:07:15.000 But I'm actually in it later on in the song.
02:07:20.000 Them good old boys want their own Joe.
02:07:23.000 It baffles him that they don't know.
02:07:26.000 Bless sex, love, and human hacks.
02:07:29.000 Sucker board glitches, Asman reacts.
02:07:31.000 I say Roche King, Roche King.
02:07:34.000 Let's pull that Cedar Grave.
02:07:36.000 Spaceships landed now, Texas.
02:07:39.000 does put a lot of cat girls in it regardless of whether it's a meme or not yeah this is crazy Yeah, it's nuts.
02:07:52.000 Results are played.
02:07:55.000 Super Saiyan 3, Joe Rogan.
02:07:57.000 You all know his name.
02:08:00.000 Here is a teacher.
02:08:02.000 Young Jamie's the seeker.
02:08:05.000 Joe's Rogan.
02:08:12.000 He's in marble lessons.
02:08:22.000 Humans final message.
02:08:25.000 They become Catgirls.
02:08:35.000 It's great.
02:08:36.000 I do think the other song is better, though.
02:08:36.000 Yeah.
02:08:38.000 The other song's too good.
02:08:40.000 Dude, the other song is...
02:09:21.000 That song's great.
02:09:23.000 Dude, AI, we are cooked, man.
02:09:25.000 Yep.
02:09:25.000 Between the visuals and the audio, there is so much packed in there to notice.
02:09:31.000 The nuances about Musk or Rogan.
02:09:34.000 And the point is, these songs were all made by Grok.
02:09:37.000 I think the songs might be soon.
02:09:38.000 I don't know, but the videos are all Grok Imagine.
02:09:41.000 No kidding.
02:09:41.000 Yeah.
02:09:42.000 That's really good.
02:09:43.000 Like, I could go on Grok right now and make a video of.
02:09:46.000 Let's go to Grok.com.
02:09:46.000 I'm going to do it, actually.
02:09:48.000 I'm going to.
02:09:49.000 They'll let you make videos of anything.
02:09:50.000 It's kind of nuts.
02:09:51.000 Let's see.
02:09:52.000 I want to make a video.
02:09:54.000 We're going to do a video of Hillary Clinton crying and slipping on spaghetti.
02:10:07.000 Generating the video.
02:10:08.000 Let's see what it makes.
02:10:09.000 I hope it's not graphic because Grok actually makes graphic images.
02:10:13.000 I made one of these two days ago with just a picture of me and like a girl.
02:10:18.000 And then she threw me.
02:10:20.000 And then her crop top just lifted and it was just full on tits.
02:10:23.000 Bro.
02:10:24.000 And they were like this.
02:10:25.000 And I'm like, yes!
02:10:26.000 Like, they're not like that and roll off.
02:10:28.000 They made them huge.
02:10:29.000 No.
02:10:34.000 She is pretty upset.
02:10:36.000 Yeah.
02:10:37.000 She's not slipping.
02:10:37.000 She's just got it all over her shoes.
02:10:39.000 She's just ice skating through spaghetti.
02:10:41.000 God, look at all that spaghetti.
02:10:45.000 That's gross.
02:10:46.000 What do you think Hillary Clinton's doing right now?
02:10:48.000 She's in a rocking chair in front of a fireplace with a little blanket on her lap.
02:10:53.000 I don't believe it.
02:10:53.000 She's almost 80.
02:10:54.000 She's sleeping.
02:10:55.000 No, she doesn't sleep.
02:10:57.000 What should I?
02:10:58.000 What should I?
02:10:58.000 Okay, hold on, hold on.
02:11:00.000 Now with this video, I can make something else happen.
02:11:02.000 The floor becomes spaghetti.
02:11:05.000 Oh my gosh.
02:11:08.000 Dude, Grok is the craziest because it's really, it's the easiest to take any picture and just animate it in really fucked up ways.
02:11:17.000 Here's, I made this video.
02:11:18.000 Here you go.
02:11:19.000 I'll do, I'll see if I can pull it up on the screen.
02:11:19.000 Actually, you know what?
02:11:25.000 I don't actually know if I can.
02:11:28.000 Send it to yourself and oh, you know what?
02:11:30.000 No, it's going to be my favorite.
02:11:31.000 Spaghetti.
02:11:32.000 That looks delicious.
02:11:34.000 Yeah.
02:11:35.000 Let me.
02:11:36.000 I like spaghetti.
02:11:37.000 I haven't had a carb in like 30 days.
02:11:39.000 Really?
02:11:45.000 I remember when that happened.
02:11:54.000 Here's the messed up thing: is there's a default function on it called spicy, which just makes softcore porn.
02:12:01.000 Oh, cool.
02:12:02.000 Elon knows what the people want.
02:12:04.000 I had no idea.
02:12:04.000 What you're going to make JP do.
02:12:06.000 Elon's like, how are we going to fix the population collapse?
02:12:09.000 I know.
02:12:11.000 Quick, take a picture of me.
02:12:12.000 Hurry.
02:12:13.000 Maybe he's thinking if he just makes everybody horny all the time.
02:12:16.000 That fixes everything.
02:12:18.000 You know?
02:12:19.000 It fixes everything.
02:12:20.000 No, it doesn't.
02:12:21.000 I thought this was supposed to be Hillary Clinton.
02:12:23.000 Let's do Hillary Clinton gets arrested by Officer Trump.
02:12:30.000 Officer Spaghetti.
02:12:31.000 Officer Spaghetti.
02:12:34.000 So I saw, I figured that I looked.
02:12:38.000 I knew you could upload images to Gemini and these things and animate them.
02:12:42.000 But there's a video.
02:12:43.000 There's a guy who's getting a bunch of followers.
02:12:45.000 He goes on Instagram.
02:12:46.000 He'll go to a mall, take a picture of a random person without them noticing, AI generate a weird thing, and then show them.
02:12:53.000 Oh, wow.
02:12:58.000 Well, okay, I guess.
02:13:01.000 The embrace.
02:13:02.000 Yeah.
02:13:04.000 Officer Trump catches criminal Hillary Clinton and embraces her lovingly.
02:13:15.000 Spicy mode.
02:13:17.000 Oh, please don't.
02:13:21.000 Here you go.
02:13:21.000 Wait, wait, wait, wait.
02:13:22.000 Hold on.
02:13:27.000 That's fun.
02:13:29.000 Yeah, I'll try.
02:13:30.000 That's fun.
02:13:30.000 I'll pull this one up.
02:13:31.000 I like to see myself looking obese.
02:13:34.000 I feel more American.
02:13:43.000 That's hilarious.
02:13:45.000 I love the fact that I could imagine.
02:13:46.000 The normal Hillary is the criminal Hillary.
02:13:49.000 No change.
02:13:50.000 Just hurt.
02:13:53.000 All right.
02:13:54.000 Here you go, everybody.
02:13:55.000 Here you go.
02:13:56.000 This is the future of videos.
02:14:06.000 This table, by the way, weighs over a thousand pounds.
02:14:09.000 So for him to have done that.
02:14:11.000 And that actually happened.
02:14:13.000 But Grock could do that too.
02:14:15.000 Yeah.
02:14:16.000 That was a video I just filmed.
02:14:17.000 We fixed the table.
02:14:18.000 I was trying to imply that happened in real life.
02:14:21.000 How about this?
02:14:22.000 That's a really good joke.
02:14:23.000 I'm a professional, ladies and gentlemen.
02:14:28.000 Oh, my gosh.
02:14:32.000 I have friends.
02:14:32.000 I get, I have a question.
02:14:34.000 You know how they have these, like, these AI porn laws now?
02:14:37.000 Is it illegal to make a video of Hillary Clinton giving Trump a kiss?
02:14:41.000 I don't know.
02:14:42.000 Would they be like, that's sexual, you know, AI imagery?
02:14:46.000 I mean, it's Clinton.
02:14:47.000 Do you really want to risk it?
02:14:48.000 Yeah.
02:14:49.000 It's not illegal, but it's dead.
02:14:51.000 Well, it's not illegal, but it's damn good.
02:14:52.000 I was like, is it going to be illegal for me to make a video of JP and Hillary kissing?
02:14:57.000 I would sue you.
02:15:02.000 Instead, she just gives you a hug.
02:15:04.000 And you're friends.
02:15:06.000 And that's it.
02:15:07.000 You guys are friends and they hug.
02:15:08.000 Oh, Hillary.
02:15:09.000 It's very nice.
02:15:11.000 Imagine the smell.
02:15:16.000 I don't think she blinks.
02:15:20.000 Hillary Clinton doesn't blink.
02:15:22.000 That's a fact.
02:15:23.000 She doesn't blink.
02:15:24.000 She blinks like this, like one eye at a time.
02:15:26.000 She blinks like this.
02:15:27.000 It closes from the side.
02:15:29.000 Oh, yeah.
02:15:29.000 She's got a photo of her, like in the apartment.
02:15:32.000 And she's like, how do poor people live?
02:15:34.000 Like standing there and she's just shocked.
02:15:34.000 Yeah.
02:15:38.000 Yeah.
02:15:38.000 You can tell that she's.
02:15:39.000 Literally every apartment I've ever had and she's just disgusted.
02:15:42.000 She doesn't know what to do.
02:15:43.000 She's like, they don't even have servants to scream at.
02:15:47.000 Where's your foil?
02:15:48.000 Are you supposed to yell at the rats?
02:15:50.000 There is no chandelier.
02:15:52.000 All right, everybody.
02:15:53.000 We're going to go to callers here.
02:15:54.000 Make sure if you want to call in the future, you go to Timcast.com, click join us.
02:15:59.000 Get in that Discord server.
02:16:01.000 There is the 6 p.m. special behind-the-scenes show with the third share co-host of the show along with Slick and Olivia.
02:16:08.000 We have the Friday Backstage Pass where you can actually watch the full hour of pre-production.
02:16:12.000 We're trying to focus more on the community and development.
02:16:16.000 And so we've got a lot more stuff in the works.
02:16:18.000 I can also add that pool water, I believe, will be available for purchase Friday.
02:16:24.000 I love it.
02:16:25.000 Is that out of your liquid death?
02:16:27.000 Yeah, it's a gag product.
02:16:29.000 I think it's going to be, it might be like either 24, I think it's going to be $24 for a 12-pack, so they're about two bucks each.
02:16:35.000 Shipping's a bitch.
02:16:36.000 These are bottles of water.
02:16:37.000 They're heavy.
02:16:38.000 So it's not like you're getting from Amazon where they just eat the delivery fees because they're so massive.
02:16:43.000 It's a gag product as it is.
02:16:44.000 So, if you want to buy it, but what we're going to do here is we're going to be ordering like a thousand bottles so that whenever someone like we have that Icelandic water, pool water.
02:16:52.000 Yeah.
02:16:53.000 So, when you, when, when we, so we're going to have it's going to be glass, but we are going to do cans because I am not this like, oh no, plastic.
02:17:01.000 Like, I try to avoid plastic sometimes.
02:17:03.000 I do.
02:17:04.000 Uh, my issue is largely don't lie about it.
02:17:06.000 Yeah.
02:17:07.000 So, for people who don't care, just want canned water and don't mind the plastic liner, we're going to put like plastic in every can exclamation point.
02:17:12.000 You know what I mean?
02:17:14.000 All right, let's go with uh Sir Jackhoff.
02:17:14.000 Yeah.
02:17:17.000 What's up, Sir Jack Hoff?
02:17:17.000 What's up?
02:17:20.000 What's up, guys?
02:17:21.000 Um, my question involves kind of the topic Tim was bringing up yesterday with old factions falling.
02:17:29.000 The right doesn't have woke to defeat anymore.
02:17:31.000 So, now we're bickering and fighting amongst each other about the issues that we most care about.
02:17:36.000 So, assuming those factions keep forming between the right over the Jews, or maybe neocons, will eventually we start having some form of people leaving each side.
02:17:47.000 How Tim left the left, or JP, I believe, also left the left, but people who became a disaffected neocon, maybe a lot, or you know, overcome the J-Pill in some form.
02:17:59.000 Like, will we start seeing those people denounced, such as like Tucker Carlson or like Dave Smith, going, you know what?
02:18:03.000 I don't like Israel, but these people actually have TDS and then joining the other side.
02:18:07.000 Maybe China rises up, and then you have neocons actually getting more power because China's a threat and we want more foreign intervention.
02:18:14.000 How do y'all see that playing out?
02:18:15.000 Um, man, it feels like with the routing of the left, the right is now breaking apart because they have no unified enemy, they have no unified villain, or no, no, central villain, I should say not unified, and then we're going to start getting like everything's melting and breaking apart.
02:18:33.000 There's not a monoculture anymore, viewership is spreading out, we are decentralizing.
02:18:38.000 I feel like what's going to happen is the AI.
02:18:43.000 Let's just skip all the noise.
02:18:45.000 You'll plug your brain into the matrix and live in a singular universe.
02:18:48.000 Have a nice day.
02:18:49.000 Like, basically, the point is the stuff that we're seeing right now with cultural breakdown and ideological fracturing, you've got all these different tribes emerging, and they're going to keep getting smaller.
02:18:57.000 We're going to find ourselves in five years with the anti-Zionists, and that you've got anti-Zionist left, anti-Zionist right.
02:19:03.000 They don't like each other, but they do kind of agree on the Zionism thing.
02:19:06.000 But then, within each of these, it's going to break apart again, and you're going to get the Zionist disillusion movement and the Zionist separation movement where they're going to be like, You think we should just be uninvolved with Israel and ignore these people?
02:19:19.000 I think we need to recolonize and shut it all down.
02:19:21.000 And like, it's going to continually get more and more granular until we just plug our brains in and live in our own isolated universes.
02:19:29.000 I think that the people that have left the left, they largely left because they were driven out.
02:19:37.000 They didn't leave because, you know, it's not like they were like, you know what?
02:19:41.000 Those conservatives are actually right.
02:19:43.000 You know, they a good portion of them, or I think the majority of them left because they were like, okay, I can't get into this men and women's bathroom.
02:19:53.000 Well, I can't, I can't back whatever it was that set them off.
02:19:58.000 Or they said something and then the left canceled them.
02:20:01.000 So they're like, Well, I can't be around these people because I really believe this thing that has generally been a normal opinion up until five minutes ago.
02:20:11.000 So I don't know if I think that the people on the right are going to do that.
02:20:17.000 You know, I don't, I don't see a lot of people getting driven out.
02:20:20.000 Maybe Israel could be something that some people would leave, but I don't think that that's a big issue for the majority of Americans.
02:20:27.000 So isn't that happening to Tucker?
02:20:30.000 It's not just, but it's, but it's everybody.
02:20:32.000 I mean, I'll put it like this: we talked a bit about the turning point USA stuff.
02:20:38.000 I'm getting asked incessantly about it.
02:20:40.000 It's actually quite simple.
02:20:42.000 They booked our slot immediately and didn't tell us.
02:20:47.000 And they were cognizant of that they had done this.
02:20:50.000 With Charlie Kirk's passing, his murder, the vision of management was dramatically different.
02:20:57.000 And it's interesting because that was kind of the argument people were making, particularly Candace, that other people at Turning Point did not agree with how Charlie was doing things.
02:21:05.000 For three years, we held the same time slot.
02:21:08.000 My opinion of this is they're closing ranks.
02:21:13.000 They're focused on the world they want and the world they see.
02:21:16.000 Charlie was a big tent kind of guy who wanted to bring all the factions together.
02:21:20.000 Clearly, that's not the case right now.
02:21:22.000 There's donor disputes over Tucker Carlson.
02:21:24.000 Candace is clearly at odds with them.
02:21:27.000 And then there's the issue that we had where they booked the slot we normally had without thought.
02:21:32.000 And only after I said we won't be there and there was some backlash, they came back and said, we'll bump those speakers for you.
02:21:36.000 And I'm like, it's too late.
02:21:37.000 We can't do this.
02:21:38.000 My point is not to rehash that, but to point out the vision of people in this movement is there's no Charlie Kirk.
02:21:47.000 There's no Dan Bongino.
02:21:49.000 Without a loud voice that creates a low that can reach out to the lowest common denominator, you are going to get tribal factions breaking apart, disagreeing with each other, and it's going to make audiences smaller.
02:22:02.000 Revenue is going to get smaller.
02:22:04.000 That's the reality.
02:22:05.000 It's not just about politics.
02:22:06.000 It's every facet.
02:22:07.000 Video game audiences are getting smaller.
02:22:09.000 Movies are getting smaller.
02:22:11.000 And no one goes to theaters anymore.
02:22:13.000 There's no one big movie to go watch.
02:22:15.000 It's all little ones now.
02:22:16.000 Even Marvel movies are collapsing.
02:22:18.000 I think the trend we are on is towards total cultural granularization.
02:22:24.000 It's going to get to the point where, you know what, let me say it like this.
02:22:28.000 People tell me like, Tim, you've got one of the biggest shows, you know?
02:22:31.000 Like, I can't believe with like Turning Point especially, but aren't you one of like the biggest podcasts in the space?
02:22:36.000 And I'm like, I think we're averaging right now around 600,000 per episode.
02:22:41.000 YouTube's dropped down about 30K on average per episode, seasonal.
02:22:46.000 Everyone else has taken a little bit bigger of a hit in the political space, but Rumble is down a little bit.
02:22:51.000 Our audio side is seemingly okay.
02:22:52.000 So it's done a little bit.
02:22:55.000 Primetime cable shows used to do 7, 8 million per night.
02:23:00.000 So when they're like, wow, you're so big, you get 500 to 600,000.
02:23:03.000 I'm like, that is a small show.
02:23:05.000 You're talking demo too.
02:23:06.000 Like you're talking demo market 18 to 49.
02:23:06.000 Right.
02:23:09.000 Like they were doing way more than that when you're talking about 10 years ago.
02:23:13.000 Audience.
02:23:14.000 15 years ago, CNN was doing, what, like 6, 7 million?
02:23:18.000 Tucker Carlson in 2020 was doing 3 to 5 million.
02:23:21.000 To be fair, that wasn't Kido.
02:23:22.000 Tucker Carlson was doing like, I think it was doing 7,080,000 key demo, which is sort of where we are at.
02:23:30.000 It's seasonal.
02:23:31.000 I don't know what's going on right now why in November when views should be up, everybody's basically complaining.
02:23:37.000 I'm not going to drag anyone personally.
02:23:40.000 I just recommend you go and take a look at the video views of insert prominent conservative commentator or commentators in general.
02:23:47.000 And you're going to be like, whoa.
02:23:50.000 Because we do analytics tracking.
02:23:53.000 We compare our numbers to other numbers, not because we're trying to be better.
02:23:55.000 We want to see market trends, where people are watching, what we can sell for.
02:23:59.000 And, you know, Tate came in and said, check this out.
02:24:02.000 And he holds up YouTube and there's certain commentators.
02:24:05.000 And it's like their views are 20% of where they were two months ago.
02:24:07.000 And we're like, what the fuck just happened?
02:24:10.000 And people with millions of subs.
02:24:11.000 It's crazy.
02:24:12.000 Something's going on.
02:24:14.000 But it may be granularization in politics, in culture.
02:24:21.000 It's going to be impossible to fund a Super Bowl because the views are going to be breaking apart.
02:24:26.000 Now, we'll see with the Super Bowl coming up, how the ratings are going to be.
02:24:31.000 I mean, they've talked about the whole reason they bring on somebody like Bad Bunny is to attract an audience outside the U.S. because they're trying all of these companies are looking to move beyond just the U.S. as a marketplace now.
02:24:42.000 You look at WWE getting in bed with Saudi Arabia, the possibility that Saudi Arabia wants to buy a piece of Warner Brothers.
02:24:49.000 There were talks of like a $70 billion all-cash offer because they have the money to do it.
02:24:54.000 And then we have Trump talking to the Prince yesterday, getting them to commit a billion or a trillion dollars investment, right?
02:25:03.000 In the U.S., it's insane.
02:25:06.000 So I don't know.
02:25:06.000 Indeed.
02:25:07.000 Maybe I went a bit off on a tangent there beyond the question, but my personal guess for the future is if the Overton window continues to shift, maybe more Christians.
02:25:19.000 Not all of them are completely anti-interventionalists, and especially if China rises and actually becomes more of an issue on a global stage.
02:25:28.000 I have a slight fear neocons are going to start gaining more power, but that's just my guess.
02:25:35.000 Thank you all for having me on.
02:25:36.000 One little shout out.
02:25:38.000 I'm a Texas member.
02:25:40.000 I recently met someone who is developing an app that's basically public square that's called Unite SA San Antonio.
02:25:48.000 And he has plans to move it not only to the rest of the nation, but obviously throughout Texas.
02:25:53.000 And it's specifically a Christian-focused app.
