Transcript

00:00:00.000 Ladies and gentlemen, right now, we are going to be talking about the news that we have.
00:00:29.000 And right now, it's very surprising, actually.
00:00:32.000 Hurricane Milton has been upgraded to a Category 5 with 175 mile an hour winds.
00:00:38.000 They are giving evacuation orders throughout Florida.
00:00:42.000 There's photos and videos circulating of people GTFOing from Florida because they're expecting
00:00:46.000 on the West Coast, 8 to 12 foot storm surges.
00:00:50.000 This is no joke.
00:00:51.000 I am not the expert on what you should or should not be doing.
00:00:54.000 I will only ask you to please consider what they are telling you right now.
00:00:58.000 This is apparently the biggest storm in 100 years, and it's going to just slam as a major hurricane category 5 right into Florida.
00:01:05.000 And so for my friends and friends of the show who are out there, you might have to come visit
00:01:09.000 and come on the show and stay safe. But in the meantime, while we are facing this imminent
00:01:15.000 disaster, we've got big news pertaining to the existing disaster in North Carolina and Georgia.
00:01:19.000 And that is over the weekend, which I got to be honest, as much as people don't like Kamala Harris,
00:01:24.000 it really is surprising to see that she tweeted out that the people of Lebanon are suffering.
00:01:29.000 And so that we're going to give them an additional $157 million, bringing the total to $385 million.
00:01:34.000 dollars and everybody collectively lost their their minds.
00:01:39.000 How could you be so callous?
00:01:41.000 I mean, right now, just don't say anything.
00:01:44.000 It had to be Kamala Harris desperately trying to avoid becoming president by tweeting out that she was going to give away hundreds of millions of dollars when, guess what?
00:01:51.000 The day before, FEMA announced $45 million would be going to the victims of Hurricane Helene, which is remarkable.
00:02:00.000 A little bit more than 10% of what Lebanon's gotten this year.
00:02:03.000 Can't say that I'm surprised. We'll talk about that.
00:02:05.000 Plus, she appeared on Call Her Daddy, which actually the Call Her Daddy podcast is getting a backlash over this.
00:02:12.000 Alex Cooper, the host, apparently has a lot of people watch her show who are mixed politics, and now she's pissed a lot of people off.
00:02:18.000 Elon Musk has this great interview with Tucker Carlson where he says that, hey, look...
00:02:22.000 The reason why a lot of billionaires are lining up behind Kamala Harris, it's because Trump's going to release the Epstein files.
00:02:28.000 And then he makes a joke about how much prison time do you think I'm going to get if Kamala wins?
00:02:31.000 So we'll talk about that, plus a lot of other news.
00:02:34.000 Marjorie Taylor Greene in the news because she says that, yes, they can control the weather and keeps it at that.
00:02:40.000 And the media then put the word they in quotes.
00:02:42.000 I can't believe they did that.
00:02:45.000 But before we get started, my friends, I got good news.
00:02:48.000 Head over to boonieshq.com because guess what?
00:02:50.000 Our skateboards are in stock.
00:02:52.000 I'll give you some numbers. The Boobies, which is a skateboard with a blue-footed booby on it, and those birds are hilarious if you don't know what they are, is selling like hotcakes.
00:03:01.000 Now, it can't beat Step on Snack and Find Out.
00:03:03.000 We've sold several hundred of these.
00:03:04.000 And I will say this.
00:03:06.000 Mr. Bocas Pro Model Skateboard has outsold me.
00:03:09.000 I am proud. I am proud.

00:03:55.000 Hey everybody, how's it going?
00:03:56.000 Who are you? What do you do?
00:03:58.000 What do I do? Well, I've done a lot of stuff.
00:04:00.000 Since 2009, I've been at InfoWars, and I've seen all the trials and tribulations going through that, and I've got a pretty good story to tell you about what's going on currently, because it does change day by day.
00:04:12.000 The Democratic Party is closing in on Alex Jones and the agents that I think are still overall pissed off that Hillary Clinton did not win.
00:04:21.000 And so they've taken this Sandy Hook We're good to go.
00:04:46.000 On top of what they're already doing with the bankruptcy.
00:04:49.000 And then in November, there's going to be two auctions where they're going to auction off the digital assets of Infowars and then the physical assets.
00:04:57.000 And those are part of the liquidation that was agreed to by both parties.
00:05:03.000 And so that could be a big turning point.
00:05:06.000 Somebody could come in and buy Infowars and keep it going.
00:05:09.000 Elon? Yeah, he's...
00:05:10.000 Has he joked about it or... Well, I think that was an account that wasn't a real account.
00:05:15.000 Yeah, a parody account that did it.
00:05:16.000 But the real thing is Alex is fighting battles on a lot of fronts.
00:05:22.000 And he's been around for a long time.
00:05:23.000 I used to listen to Alex Jones at a job I had at Tokyo Electron.
00:05:27.000 I was a video guy there. And I'd put on Alex Jones all day and just listen to him while I was editing and just had him in the background.
00:05:33.000 And with all the news and his perspective and the way he was able to draw...
00:05:39.000 Different events you would not think were related and somehow show you how...
00:05:42.000 He predicted 9-11.
00:05:44.000 Oh, yeah. I mean...
00:05:45.000 I mean, that's not a joke.
00:05:47.000 And he actually has a video from like July of 2001 where he says they're going to target the World Trade Centers and blame Osama bin Laden.
00:05:54.000 Yes. You can find these videos. You can watch them.
00:05:55.000 And more famously, more recently, he predicted the Russian invasion of Ukraine several months in advance.
00:06:01.000 I asked him... He called it the end of February.
00:06:03.000 Exactly. When it happened. And I asked him, how did he know?
00:06:05.000 And he was like, Tim, I... I just read the news.
00:06:07.000 I don't know. I just read an article and it said these things were going on.
00:06:09.000 And I'm like, that's going to happen. Well, I think what happens is when he's in his zone, which is, you know, on the show, he's thinking about how and he's looking at all the articles and, you know, he's like that guy looking at all the red lines.
00:06:19.000 Yeah, looking at everything together. And he's like, OK, I could see it right now.
00:06:22.000 It's going to happen into February.
00:06:23.000 They're going in. They're going to march in.
00:06:25.000 And he called it. I mean, he called it.
00:06:28.000 We'll see what happens in the next month or two or the next couple of months.
00:06:30.000 We will. And, you know, people can help out.
00:06:32.000 And I appreciate you having me on to at least tell people how they can help.
00:06:35.000 And that's, you know, go to realalexjones.com where he's got his, you know, he's running a give-send-go for his legal defense.
00:06:42.000 Because if he's able to fight these battles, he can stay on the field.
00:06:45.000 And that's, I think, the main thing for him is staying on the field, fighting realalexjones.com.
00:06:50.000 And then, you know, I'm sporting one of these shirts from the Alex Jones store.
00:06:53.000 Alex Jones experiences. This is the Alex Jones experience, and you can check that out at thealexjonesstore.com.
00:06:58.000 And he's got lots of t-shirts, and these are separate companies.
00:07:00.000 They're not associated with him because he really can't own any assets.
00:07:03.000 That's where they're taking everything away from him.
00:07:05.000 Right on. And, you know, this is a guy—well, yeah.
00:07:08.000 We'll get into it, I'm sure, and more in-depth with those updates, but it should be fun.
00:07:11.000 Thanks for hanging out. We've got Phil hanging out.
00:07:13.000 Hello, everybody. My name is Phil Labonte.
00:07:14.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band, All That Remains.
00:07:17.000 I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.
00:07:19.000 Hannah Clare, how are you?
00:07:20.000 It's so fun to have you back.
00:07:22.000 I missed you while you were on tour, and it's great to have you with us.
00:07:25.000 I sometimes hope the Elon Musk parody account is actually just Elon Musk's burner account, where he test-launches ideas and sees what people are going to say.
00:07:33.000 But yeah, I'm Hannah Clare Brimelow.
00:07:34.000 I'm on the show. I always think it's Adrian Dittman.
00:07:36.000 Oh, maybe. Let's get started.
00:07:39.000 Here's the big story from over the weekend from Newsweek.
00:07:42.000 Kamala Harris' Lebanon relief under scrutiny as GOP stokes Helene backlash.
00:07:47.000 Look, I like Newsweek.
00:07:49.000 They do a lot of good stuff sometimes.
00:07:51.000 They're not as bad as a lot of the other corporate press outlets.
00:07:53.000 They've got some good people over there.
00:07:54.000 But this one is just...
00:07:56.000 Guys, GOP stokes Helene backlash.
00:07:59.000 Kamala Harris, on October 5th, for no reason, tweeted out, The people of Lebanon are facing an increasingly dire humanitarian situation.
00:08:07.000 I am concerned about the security and well-being of civilian suffering in Lebanon and will continue working to help meet the needs of all civilians there.
00:08:14.000 To that end, the United States will provide nearly $157 million in additional assistance to the people of Lebanon for essential needs such as food, shelter, water, protection, and sanitation to help those who have been displaced by the recent conflict.
00:08:27.000 This additional support brings total U.S. assistance to Lebanon over the last year to over 385 million.
00:08:33.000 Why? Who else could use food, water, and protection?
00:08:38.000 Just first question, first question.
00:08:39.000 Why tweet this? You want to rub it in people's faces.
00:08:42.000 That's what it is. Was Kamala sitting there being like, I really don't want to be president.
00:08:47.000 I'm going to sabotage my own campaign right now.
00:08:49.000 Michael Malice knows why.
00:08:52.000 He said it on the Joe Rogan podcast.
00:08:55.000 She's a retard. It's one of the wildest tweets because she put this out while Donald Trump was speaking at the Butler rally.
00:09:03.000 His big return to Butler, Pennsylvania rally.
00:09:06.000 This is her gotcha moment. On stage.
00:09:07.000 And to distract from whatever he's saying, she's like, I know what I'll say.
00:09:10.000 That will make people like me.
00:09:13.000 I don't really believe she writes her own tweets.
00:09:16.000 So whichever aide wrote this for her and was like, no, no, it's a great idea that we talk about this right now, clearly did not read the room when it comes to the American people.
00:09:24.000 There is a secret MAGA mole working for Kamala's campaign and was like, I am going to put a stop to this and just tweeted this out because, look, There's a lot of money the U.S. gives to a lot of people.
00:09:37.000 And we're pissed off about most of it.
00:09:39.000 But you don't tweet about it.
00:09:41.000 And so here she is in one of the most critical moments where people in North Carolina and Georgia are suffering and dying.
00:09:47.000 And she's like, by the way, $400 million went to...
00:09:51.000 Lebanon. What are the chances it was like one of the tweets where you schedule for later?
00:09:55.000 Someone scheduled it and they forgot to take it off.
00:09:58.000 They're just like, oh, you know, this will blah, blah, blah.
00:10:00.000 That's actually a really good point.
00:10:01.000 I'm not saying that it was, but it could be.
00:10:03.000 But I gotta tell you, there's another component to this, in that it was scheduled two days before October 7th.
00:10:09.000 Basically saying the people of Lebanon are facing a dire humanitarian situation.
00:10:13.000 And it's like, that's true, they are.
00:10:15.000 but there is a war going on and for all the people who are divided on the issue of Israel,
00:10:22.000 she's just basically fanning the flames of those tensions.
00:10:26.000 Because I assure you, the pro-Israel people are like, why would she post this two
00:10:29.000 days before the anniversary?
00:10:30.000 Americans are still held hostage. There are still Americans being held by Amnesty.
00:10:34.000 In this war, right?
00:10:35.000 Yeah, still today. So I mean, the fact that she's, and again, I totally agree with you,
00:10:41.000 the people of Lebanon, they're suffering because of Hezbollah, because of Iran. But I mean...
00:10:47.000 But it's a war between... Look, all this is going to do is piss off the pro-Israel people who are
00:10:53.000 being like, why are you giving money to the people we are at war with?
00:10:57.000 And fine, by all means, humanitarian assistance we get, but two days before October 7th?
00:11:02.000 I'm not saying it's the biggest point here, but it's just like if you could ever craft a tweet and time it perfectly to sabotage your campaign, that would be – is the October surprise Kamala Harris just basically tries resigning?
00:11:15.000 I think that she is surprised she is in the position she, you know, she is surprised to find herself the presidential candidate.
00:11:23.000 She's never been able to effectively message on the Israel, the Middle East conflict at all.
00:11:28.000 I mean, they're and part of it is because Democratic, especially progressive voters are more divided on it than, you know, their counterparts may be on the right.
00:11:37.000 She, I don't think, thinks anything through.
00:11:39.000 Like I said, I don't think she runs her own Twitter account.
00:11:41.000 So someone else wrote this out.
00:11:43.000 She doesn't take questions from the media.
00:11:44.000 We're not even sure she knows it was posted.
00:11:47.000 And again, I think it speaks to the fact that this is a very detached campaign.
00:11:50.000 Fox News had this report over the weekend that since the Harris-Walls tickers form, so after Walls was named as the VP, they did something like 25 interviews, right?
00:12:00.000 And they're starting to ramp that up now. During the same period of time, Trump advanced at 63.
00:12:05.000 So we have one campaign that is really trying to get their messaging to the people, that's really trying to talk about the issues.
00:12:10.000 We have another one that's sort of trying to coast on vibes and, hey, look, we're not Joe Biden, so feel the relief.
00:12:16.000 It's not enough. They're not going to convert voters this way.
00:12:18.000 Well, and you don't have a message. When you saw just the clip from 60 Minutes, you saw what she said.
00:12:22.000 She's just word salad after word salad.
00:12:25.000 Here's my economic plan is to tax people and the billionaires aren't paying enough, which means everybody's going to pay.
00:12:31.000 That clip was brutal.
00:12:33.000 It was. He's like, yeah, we live in the real world.
00:12:35.000 The lighting looks bad on her too.
00:12:36.000 It's like they screwed up the lighting.
00:12:37.000 They screwed up everything on her like they did with that other interview with Dana Bash.
00:12:40.000 I hope the deep state is actually, it's a double conspiracy and they want Trump to win because I accept that.
00:12:45.000 Like, please, we cannot have Kamala Harris.
00:12:48.000 There's a – it might be dark days.
00:12:51.000 The double conspiracy is that Trump is actually a part of the deep state and the deep state is pretending that he's under fire so that people like Alex Jones and anti-government people flock to Trump but then actually end up waving American flags.
00:13:03.000 I'm just like I hope.
00:13:05.000 I hope that's really what's going on because we cannot have four years of Kamala Harris.
00:13:10.000 Well, can he do, if he does half of what he says he's going to do, which he won't do, he'll probably get a quarter done of what he wants to do, it's still going to be better than what we're at now, which is digging ourselves in a rut and just leaving people out to dry.
00:13:21.000 Like, the response to that hurricane is just savage, what they're doing to these people.
00:13:24.000 Even if he gets none of what he wants to do done, I'm serious, even if he gets none of what he wants to do none and just prevents Democrat policies from being implemented, that's a win.
00:13:36.000 I gotta one-up ya. If Trump ends up doing nine out of the ten things that Kamala was going to do, it's still a win.
00:13:44.000 It's so bad.
00:13:47.000 The current administration opened borders.
00:13:50.000 The wars are escalating dramatically.
00:13:53.000 Wages adjusted for inflation are way down.
00:13:56.000 People can't afford to buy groceries.
00:13:57.000 If Trump was like, I'm going to leave everything as it is, but de-escalate wars.
00:14:02.000 It's like, well, I guess we're better off.
00:14:03.000 I mean, it's not hard to be better.
00:14:05.000 But you know he's going to drill. You know we're going to get cheaper gas at the end of this.
00:14:08.000 And cheaper gas means everything else is cheaper.
00:14:10.000 Exactly. That alone is reason enough.
00:14:13.000 But big oil is what runs the world at this point.
00:14:17.000 The arguments from the left, particularly the people that are against oil...
00:14:22.000 They're the arguments of children.
00:14:24.000 They're not serious.
00:14:26.000 They're not adults. They don't think about the things they're talking about.
00:14:30.000 Everything that we use is made with oil.
00:14:33.000 So I'm all for Teslas.
00:14:35.000 I'm getting a Tesla next year, I think.
00:14:37.000 I love the S. Tim has sold me on them.
00:14:41.000 They're great cars. I bag them.
00:14:43.000 They're commuter cars. They're great local cars.
00:14:46.000 We drive them to D.C. and back with no issues an hour drive or so.
00:14:49.000 When we took Cybertruck up to Butler, we only needed to charge one time between here and Pittsburgh.
00:14:56.000 We stopped twice just because we wanted to.
00:14:58.000 We were like, we might as well just, you know, top it off.
00:15:00.000 And then, uh, we got to, uh, from Pittsburgh, uh, Fully charged to Butler.
00:15:06.000 We are at 88%. And then we powered the War Room podcast.
00:15:10.000 They plugged into Cybertruck, ran the show, and they had a Starlink on top for their backup internet.
00:15:15.000 And then once the show was done, and we couldn't keep the Cybertruck there because you're not in all those cars, we ended up leaving.
00:15:24.000 And, I don't know, it was 80%.
00:15:27.000 I mean, it was absolutely fantastic.
00:15:29.000 I wouldn't recommend hauling...
00:15:30.000 serious stuff across the country with the Cybertruck, but for local back-and-forth stuff, it's super easy.
00:15:35.000 Did you ever see that video where the guy is yelling at the environmental protesters?
00:15:40.000 And he's like, everything you're wearing is made of oil.
00:15:42.000 Your coats are made from oil. Like, what do you... get rid of them!
00:15:45.000 I mean, we've said this on the show before, but if you were to stop using petroleum products,
00:15:51.000 like two-thirds of the population of Earth dies.
00:15:54.000 Because all of the – there's all this – all the chemicals that they – or not the chemicals, but the fertilizers that they use to grow food, they're all petroleum-based.
00:16:04.000 So it's a ridiculous idea to say, oh, we need to get rid of oil and stuff.
00:16:09.000 No, no, no, no.
00:16:35.000 You know, the U.S. and Europe, you should probably ban your plastic straws and that will fix it.
00:16:39.000 Meanwhile, India and China and Shangri-La.
00:16:41.000 Right, right. I mean, let's not forget J.D. Vance in the debate saying if you were serious about the environment, you would move all manufacturing back to the U.S. where we have the cleanest economy.
00:16:50.000 I mean, this is one of the criticisms with NAFTA, right?
00:16:52.000 That there were all sorts of environmental emissions regulations, but Mexico never followed them and no one ever enforced it.
00:16:58.000 And so therefore, it's just this thing that we do as a weird virtue signal and to give government more things to regulate.
00:17:05.000 People forget that the most beneficial solutions are usually pro-America solutions.
00:17:11.000 America first solutions. I just got it.
00:17:12.000 Did you say Shangri-La? Shangri-La, yeah.
00:17:14.000 I love that because for those that don't know, Shangri-La is an earthly paradise.
00:17:18.000 And so I'm like, well, they maintain their earthly paradise by dumping all their garbage into the ocean.
00:17:24.000 It's a fictional place in Tibet.
00:17:25.000 And they're just dumping all their garbage so they can keep it clean.
00:17:28.000 You go down the river. That's right.
00:17:30.000 Have you seen some of these videos that will just show this rolling mound of plastic just going through a canal, and you're like, wow, that's what the uncivilized world is doing.
00:17:40.000 And it's because they haven't set up systems to do that.
00:17:43.000 Maybe we could do that instead of killing people.
00:17:45.000 But the crazy thing, too, is...
00:17:48.000 Look, humans build cities on rivers because they're water sources.
00:17:52.000 And our rivers are dirty.
00:17:53.000 I mean, name a city where you'd go into a downtown river and enjoy a swim.
00:17:57.000 No, you can in parts of Austin where the spring, the natural spring pops up and then flows into the river, which you don't go swimming in.
00:18:05.000 But that's only one little part.
00:18:06.000 It's messy, but... So let me show you this real quick before we wrap up on this first part.
00:18:11.000 This is FEMA. On October 4th said $45 million would go to the Hurricane Helene survivors.
00:18:17.000 Continuing to address critical needs.
00:18:20.000 $45 million. Now, I'm hearing all these excuses from Democrats where they're like, well, that's what was allocated.
00:18:26.000 It's just 157 was allocated to Lebanon.
00:18:28.000 And I'm like, yeah, we're mad about it.
00:18:30.000 What don't you get? Well, it's Republicans in Congress, and it's the Democrats in Congress, too.
00:18:34.000 Democrats have the Senate. They could propose bills and send them to the House.
00:18:37.000 House could do the same thing.
00:18:39.000 Why, for the love of all this holy, why aren't Republicans just having an emergency session or the Speaker getting together and making a press conference saying, we need to get Congress back in here to allocate more funds?
00:18:52.000 Republicans can put it on Democrats, or Democrats can do the same thing and put it on Republicans.
00:18:55.000 I think I said this the other day, but the very day, the very first day that the hurricane hit, the president, well, the president and Kamala Harris, because they're one and the same, and the president is not with us, and the Speaker of the House, and the majority leader of the Senate, should have been calling for all of Congress to come back to make sure that there was funding.
00:19:17.000 Mm-hmm. They should—they were just on—they were on whatever they call it, leave or whatever.
00:19:22.000 Bring them back and make them do their job for the American people.
00:19:26.000 Well, their solution seems to be—because Mike Johnson said, we need to give more money to FEMA. Is that going to really help?
00:19:31.000 Do we really want bean counters going in there and trying to help people?
00:19:34.000 Or do we give it to the states?
00:19:35.000 To be honest with you, it's better than doing nothing.
00:19:38.000 Sure, but I think you give this money to the states and let them figure it out because they know how to fix their system.
00:19:42.000 But isn't North Carolina doing a crap job of it, if I understand correctly?
00:19:46.000 And I'm talking about the North Carolina government.
00:19:48.000 The thing is, we should have gone to Lebanon is the thing.
00:19:50.000 Lebanon's getting $157 million.
00:19:53.000 North Carolina, Florida, Georgia should at least get double that.
00:19:56.000 At least. I mean, at least have people going in there.
00:19:59.000 When Hurricane Rita hit, 2007, it hit southwest Louisiana where my parents live.
00:20:04.000 And within two days, the National Guard had gone through and cut, because 30% of the trees fell down in this area, went and cut all the roads out.
00:20:13.000 They had everything bulldozed to the side so people could get through in two days.
00:20:17.000 And, you know, they're saying they can't do that, and we're two weeks into this?
00:20:20.000 Again, I mentioned this just the other night.
00:20:22.000 Look, during the Berlin airlift, they had an airplane landing in Berlin every 30 seconds.
00:20:28.000 In the 40s. In the 40s.
00:20:30.000 So don't tell me that we can't take care of the people that are suffering in North Carolina.
00:20:36.000 Okay, hold on, Phil. We can take care of the people that are suffering.
00:20:41.000 Just not North Carolina. We've got this story from the post-millennial Biden-Harris admin brags about keeping Ukraine's power on as Americans face outages.
00:20:51.000 I'd like to just offer up a free public relations lesson for us.
00:20:56.000 It's a freebie. Just a freebie.
00:20:58.000 I mean, I could consult on this.
00:20:59.000 My rate would be very high. But Biden-Harris and the White House...
00:21:07.000 taxpayer money to foreign countries when Americans are dying due to a lack of resources following
00:21:13.000 natural disasters and with an impending Category 5 about to slam into Florida.
00:21:19.000 Because I gotta tell you, you might actually improve your favorability ratings if you heed
00:21:25.000 We got this quote.
00:21:27.000 Let me read a little bit.
00:21:28.000 Samantha Power.
00:21:30.000 How Americans are helping Ukraine keep the lights and heat on despite Putin's attacks.
00:21:35.000 There's a quote up there, and it says, I'm here in an energy substation in the western region of Ukraine.
00:21:41.000 This substation provides enough power for around 500,000 residents of the area.
00:21:45.000 I believe there's about a quarter million people who still need electricity in North Carolina.
00:21:48.000 So you mean to tell me you're giving...
00:21:50.000 Double the resources that we need for our own people in this country to Ukraine.
00:21:55.000 Well, thank you. It's all about rubbing it in our faces and saying Americans are worthless unless we accept the entire world into our home.
00:22:03.000 Bosom. That's it. Accept them.
00:22:05.000 I just think people are tired of the Americans come second mentality, right?
00:22:09.000 This idea that we have to put Lebanon and Ukraine and everybody else first.
00:22:14.000 You know, it was one thing when most of the country or a huge portion of the country wasn't in the middle of having to deal with a natural disaster.
00:22:20.000 People were like, oh, we feel a moral obligation.
00:22:22.000 But right now, people's neighbors, relatives, friends are suffering and the federal government's priority is outside the country.
00:22:30.000 Absolutely. Even before, with these illegals going in, and they're bringing them to different cities and just putting them into hotels and treating them better than the citizens who are homeless sitting outside.
00:22:39.000 And people see this, and then this hurricane response is just another cherry on top for people.
00:22:45.000 They're just rubbing your face in it.
00:22:47.000 I love it. I love how – so we have this story, and it goes viral last week.
00:22:51.000 It's FEMA spent $650 million on illegal alien resettlement in this country, and the Democrats immediately with their smug faces go, gotcha.
00:23:00.000 That money wasn't from FEMA. It was only allocated by FEMA. And it's just like, I don't think the substance of our complaints is any different.
00:23:08.000 The federal government as an entire institution is either giving money to non-citizens or sending it overseas.
00:23:14.000 I don't care which pool of money it came from.
00:23:17.000 They say it was CBP, a lot of fundings for resettlement.
00:23:20.000 Why are we giving CBP half a billion dollars for his settlement and FEMA not having more?
00:23:24.000 And why can't we get anyone in government to, I don't know, do something?
00:23:28.000 Biden could come out right now and do a press conference and say, it's time to act.
00:23:31.000 We need emergency action right now.
00:23:34.000 And so we will be taking funds from A, B, or C to help these people.
00:23:38.000 And it brings a favorability rating up from the basement.
00:23:40.000 It would. But you know what?
00:23:42.000 Here's my conspiracy theory.
00:23:44.000 Harris is trying to lose.
00:23:46.000 She wants to lose, and the media is just pretending like the media wants her to win, but the Democrats want her to win.
00:23:53.000 And her and Biden are like, we are done.
00:23:55.000 We are out. Because I cannot believe any sane person running for president would do the things they're doing right now.
00:24:01.000 Unless they're really out of touch, right?
00:24:03.000 I mean, this is what I have always wondered about the staff supporting Kamala Harris.
00:24:07.000 If you are the most progressive candidate, you know, you get selected, you're the most progressive Democrat that was running, now you're the most progressive VP that's been there, and you select staffers who are also therefore supportive of your ideals, who...
00:24:20.000 have any kind of empathy for the average American, let alone conservative Americans, you must
00:24:25.000 look at the world and say everything they're talking about is ridiculous.
00:24:28.000 My priorities are the only ones that matter.
00:24:30.000 There's no ability to relate to anyone else.
00:24:32.000 So they cannot script her in a way that makes her relatable to an independent or moderate
00:24:37.000 voter.
00:24:38.000 They don't know what those people want and they don't really care.
00:24:40.000 That's true.
00:24:41.000 They're speaking to their base.
00:24:42.000 And, you know, 30 percent of the people I think are their base.
00:24:44.000 No problem. I think it might be scarier than all this.
00:24:46.000 It may be them saying, we can literally do anything we want because we control your elections.
00:24:51.000 That's what I'm afraid of. And we control your media, who will tell you what the election results are, whether you like it or not.
00:24:56.000 There are enough people that are normies that are not politically engaged...
00:25:02.000 That still vote because they believe it's their sacred right to vote even though they intentionally remain ignorant about policy and world events.
00:25:12.000 But there are enough people that they can just put MSNBC and NBC and CBS, put the narrative out to those major news networks and they will be able to influence enough people to win the vote.
00:25:26.000 We know that it's down to, you know, maybe...
00:25:31.000 A quarter million people in a handful of states are going to decide the actual election.
00:25:35.000 Everybody else is basically, you know, has already made their decision.
00:25:39.000 They've already, you know, there's not going to be a significant event that's going to change people's minds, or at least it's unlikely.
00:25:47.000 Maybe Florida. I mean, I don't even know about that.
00:25:50.000 But I mean, I would, I would, I hope that what is going on in North Carolina would, but I don't feel confident in that because I really, man, there was, I thought that the Trump assassination attempt would, and I was literally blown away when I saw how many people are like, oh no, Trump staged that.
00:26:07.000 Like, a dude died, man!
00:26:08.000 Like, a dude died, and two other dudes got shot, and they're just like, no, he staged it.
00:26:14.000 That was a fake thing.
00:26:15.000 There was no gun, there was no shooter.
00:26:17.000 Like, you could see his body on the roof the same day, and they're like, no, it was all staged.
00:26:23.000 So I'm not convinced that there are...
00:26:27.000 There's a significant number of people that put a lot of thought into it.
00:26:30.000 I said last Friday, I think most people vote with emotions.
00:26:33.000 Even people that think that they don't vote with emotions, I think they mostly do.
00:26:37.000 And this is why I've lost the knee-jerk support of democracy.
00:26:43.000 Not that there's anything better.
00:26:45.000 It's just that you can't guarantee, democracy is no guarantee for a good outcome.
00:26:50.000 It's just a guarantee that there's a majority outcome, and if the majority is selecting
00:26:55.000 the outcome, you have a smaller chance of the people freaking out and rioting.
00:27:00.000 Democracy is no good.
00:27:01.000 Democratic institutions, I would say a constitutional republic with democratic electoral processes
00:27:08.000 seem to function well, but we have a rather complicated system of governance.
00:27:12.000 Three branches, checks and balances.
00:27:14.000 We've got state-level governance, federal-level governance.
00:27:16.000 It's made not to move fast.
00:27:18.000 It's made to be slow and methodical, and so things get planned out right.
00:27:22.000 But they don't, obviously.
00:27:24.000 So people have taken that model, and it's been turned, I think, on its head of what it should be.
00:27:30.000 This representational form of government.
00:27:32.000 It used to be you had to be a landowner to vote.
00:27:35.000 That makes sense. Yeah, you have skin in the game.
00:27:38.000 You have skin in the game. And if you are just being a wage slave, working and living in an apartment, do you have as much invested in what's going on around you as a guy who owns three farms and who's feeding 1,300 people in his community?
00:27:52.000 You don't. And so should his vote count more?
00:27:56.000 I don't know. Back in the day, it made sense when we were talking about a community voting on what matters to them.
00:28:03.000 So it's like, do you live here was the question.
00:28:05.000 Once we get into the time of rentals, then I think it makes sense to say, no, just not landowners.
00:28:11.000 The idea of some kind of restriction to make sure that people are voting who have skin in the game makes a lot of sense.
00:28:16.000 Right now, the problem we have is you can move to an area...
00:28:19.000 Heck, you can probably apply for a mail-in vote in a place you don't even live.
00:28:21.000 This is the crazy thing that there are people who live somewhere and move and they still get a mail-in ballot.
00:28:26.000 There are people who have gotten mail-in ballots to other states for a different state.
00:28:29.000 And there are people who, as Andrew Yang said, I'm going to move to Georgia so I can influence the election, then leave.
00:28:34.000 And it's like, what? What is the point?
00:28:36.000 Is that democracy? I'm going to show up.
00:28:38.000 I don't live here, but I get to vote in how you live your life and then leave.
00:28:41.000 There's no rule saying I can't do it, so I'm going to do it, even though it doesn't seem right.
00:28:45.000 Why would you act like that?
00:28:47.000 If democracy was honored, if it was among honorable and noble men, and I mean men in
00:28:54.000 the grand sense of humanity, so this is like if women and men of good honor were going
00:28:59.000 to have a vote on things, then I think it could work, where you basically have everyone
00:29:03.000 gets together and they say, let's all discuss things calmly and rationally.
00:29:07.000 The only problem is humans are a calm and rational entity.
00:29:10.000 There are a lot of people who are just downright stupid and angry, and then that gets thrown
00:29:14.000 into the mix, and then you get too much of that, you get chaos.
00:29:18.000 So there has to be some degree, some restriction on how we vote, and I think it should be simple.
00:29:24.000 We take one little old hurdle, just one.
00:29:26.000 We put it right in front and say, do you really want to vote?
00:29:28.000 We're going to make it a little difficult, but not really that difficult.
00:29:31.000 And then guess what happens? Most people say, nah, I don't want to jump over that hurdle.
00:29:34.000 It takes too much effort.
00:29:36.000 Too much effort. And if it takes too much effort for you to consider getting an ID, for instance, then maybe you shouldn't vote.
00:29:41.000 Most people are familiar with the man on the street stuff that Jimmy Kimmel has done, right?
00:29:47.000 That's your average voter.
00:29:48.000 The people that don't know the difference between a continent and a country.
00:29:51.000 I don't believe that. You don't think so?
00:29:53.000 Nah, it's all edited to make people look really dumb.
00:29:56.000 You know, I think when you ask people questions about politics and when you ask them questions about current events, average people that are generally intelligent, they will fall to that level.
00:30:07.000 I tried doing some Man on the Street stuff when I was working for Fusion and found that it was completely a waste of time.
00:30:12.000 Because unless you're there all day intending on finding stupid people to fabricate your narrative, the average person is of average intelligence as you'd expect.
00:30:20.000 Meaning, if you say something like, what's a country?
00:30:23.000 What's a continent? If you got someone who didn't know, they'd be like, oh man, you know, honestly, it's been a long time since I've dealt with this stuff.
00:30:28.000 I work in accounting, so I don't really go over geography.
00:30:31.000 I sound like an idiot. I'm sorry.
00:30:32.000 And then you're like, well, I can't use that.
00:30:33.000 You need someone to sound like a moron.
00:30:35.000 Confidently sound like a moron.
00:30:37.000 Exactly, exactly. You need a one-liner blip that you can throw.
00:30:40.000 A lot of these men in the street stuff, they do target people who they think are going to be stupid.
00:30:47.000 I'll put it this way. The average person is average.
00:30:50.000 The average person watching a video needs to feel like they're a smart person, not an average person.
00:30:54.000 So they target the back end of the bell curve and then show that to average people so they feel like they're smart.
00:30:59.000 Fair enough, but I think that we all can agree that most people are disengaged.
00:31:04.000 We all know that the portion of the population that shows like this and shows like stuff that the Daily Wire produces, they're targeting a very narrow section of the population that are politically engaged.
00:31:18.000 You're talking about 5% on the high end.
00:31:22.000 Maybe 10, right?
00:31:23.000 Maybe. And you're trying to get...
00:31:26.000 You know, 50 to 60 percent of the population to vote is like a 50 percent vote to vote to turn out is really, really good.
00:31:33.000 I mean, we see this with midterm elections, right?
00:31:35.000 Yeah, exactly. The turnout is always lower.
00:31:37.000 People are more engaged during national elections.
00:31:38.000 Maybe you have to vote in midterms.
00:31:40.000 Sorry to cut you off. Maybe you have to vote in midterms to be allowed to vote in the presidential election.
00:31:44.000 You have to consistently participate.
00:31:46.000 Bouncer blank. You have to have a punch card.
00:31:47.000 Yeah, there you go. Bouncer blank.
00:31:49.000 There you go. Anybody can vote.
00:31:51.000 Everybody vote. No IDs required with bouncer blank.
00:31:54.000 You have to know who you're voting for.
00:31:55.000 Probably John Smith is running in so many races.
00:31:58.000 And for which position, too.
00:31:59.000 And you've got to spell their name right. Oh, easy, Tigers.
00:32:03.000 Spell their name right. Come on, man.
00:32:04.000 So we got this from the Daily Beast.
00:32:06.000 Call Her Daddy faces backlash over propaganda Harris interview.
00:32:10.000 Some fans of the hugely popular podcast are angry that the vice president did not address the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene.
00:32:19.000 Interesting. Well, how many of you are, are you guys familiar with the Call Her Daddy podcast?
00:32:24.000 Tim looks directly at me.
00:32:25.000 Yeah. Well, you were looking at me.
00:32:27.000 I don't know. And they're like, it's funny because people are saying Donald Trump declined to go on the show.
00:32:47.000 And I'm like, gee, why would Donald Trump decline to go on a women's sex podcast?
00:32:51.000 Could you imagine if I was like, hey, Donald Trump, I got a skateboard podcast.
00:32:55.000 Do you want to come on and talk about skateboarding and Magic the Gathering?
00:32:57.000 He'd be like, no. I'd be like, what?
00:32:58.000 How dare you? Well, you know, he can maybe help you sell even more of those.
00:33:03.000 That would be the one thing I think he could add to the ink.
00:33:05.000 I'm actually surprised Trump said no because he's like, I'll go on anything.
00:33:08.000 But, you know, we were just talking about this in the other segment about how most people are disengaged.
00:33:13.000 And so I ask you, good sir Phil, you were saying that we're trying to get people engaged.
00:33:18.000 Call Her Daddy and the podcast with Kamala is what happens when you try to get people who don't know or care what's going on engaged.
00:33:25.000 They say really dumb things and then vote for really bad stuff.
00:33:29.000 Yes, yes, I agree totally.
00:33:31.000 And I don't know that I think we should be trying to get people engaged.
00:33:36.000 I think we should be trying to convince people that are not engaged that they shouldn't vote.
00:33:41.000 You're like the opposite of a voter turnout campaign.
00:33:44.000 Look, man, Rock the Vote was the dumbest thing that ever happened on MTV, and they came up with, like, reality television.
00:33:50.000 They got Clinton elected, though.
00:33:51.000 They did! Let me show you guys a clip from her podcast, and you can understand why there's a backlash.
00:33:57.000 Let it begin. I want to pose this question more to you and the Daddy Gang, but one of the biggest conversations in this year's election revolves around a woman's body.
00:34:07.000 Mm-hmm. Yep. I want to take a moment, and can we try to think of any law that gives the government the power to make a decision about a man's body?
00:34:24.000 The Selective Service Act.
00:34:25.000 Anyway, continue, Alex Cooper.
00:34:27.000 No. No.
00:34:29.000 Is there any law?
00:34:31.000 No. No.
00:34:32.000 No. No.
00:34:35.000 Zuby had a really great thread where he said that – and shout out to Zuby, you guys should
00:34:42.000 follow him – he said that men – I'll paraphrase.
00:34:46.000 Men are told the truth all the time.
00:34:49.000 No one has any sympathy for men.
00:34:50.000 They don't care.
00:34:51.000 If a guy is overweight and ugly, they're going to say, you're short, overweight,
00:34:54.000 and ugly.
00:34:55.000 We don't care about you.
00:34:56.000 But women get lied to all the time by women and men, men who are trying to hook up and
00:35:00.000 women who are trying to push them out of competition or just avoid conflict.
00:35:04.000 So you end up with stuff like this.
00:35:07.000 Alex Cooper hosts a show where she discusses like general interest topic stuff for women,
00:35:14.000 dating, sex, sexuality.
00:35:15.000 Those are her words. She interviews the vice president and current Democratic candidate for the election coming up in less than a month.
00:35:23.000 And she never Google searched this!
00:35:27.000 And so she's got millions of listeners and millions of followers and she may as well be drooling into the microphone.
00:35:33.000 Okay, I'm sorry. Okay, voting should not be easy.
00:35:36.000 Voting should not be hard, but it should not be easy.
00:35:39.000 I think ballots should be blank.
00:35:40.000 That's it. You can go vote.
00:35:42.000 You don't need an ID. Paper ballots and they're blank.
00:35:45.000 You get a blank sheet of paper and it says, write down the candidate, write the position they're running for, and that's your vote.
00:35:50.000 And guess what? Every single one of Alex Cooper's listeners would go to the voting booth, look at the piece of paper, and go, I got no idea what's going on.
00:35:58.000 I can't pass this test.
00:35:59.000 I'm out. I think this is an embarrassing moment, but beyond the fact that she couldn't think of the draft as something that would affect men exclusively, I think it's embarrassing that these are two women who are being sold to American girls as girl bosses, right?
00:36:13.000 Alex Cooper sold her show to Spotify for something like $250 million.
00:36:17.000 And... She is reading scripted questions that were provided by Kamala Harris' campaign about abortion as if there were no other issues that impact women, right?
00:36:27.000 She's a businesswoman.
00:36:28.000 She's worth $250 million at least.
00:36:31.000 Is she going to ask about capital gains tax?
00:36:33.000 Is she going to ask about illegal immigration?
00:36:34.000 No. They keep women siloed to this one issue and it's, I think, to keep them kind of compliant and stupid.
00:36:40.000 As a podcast nerd myself, having run a podcast business, her deal was over several years.
00:36:46.000 And the trick is, my friends, I'll let you in on some inside baseball.
00:36:50.000 When you hear that someone scored this big contract, it's a $10 million contract, what they're not telling you is how much of that was compensation.
00:36:58.000 Because the tricks they do is they'll say, here's what we're going to do.
00:37:01.000 We're going to pay you $2 million a year, so you'll get over three years, $6 million cash.
00:37:05.000 We'll put $50 million per year into advertising, Spotify, with you as a feature in it, which is a $150 million value.
00:37:14.000 Thus, you have a $156 million contract.
00:37:16.000 And then we're going to announce it to everybody.
00:37:18.000 It makes you sound really famous and popular, and the marketing will be good for you, and you'll be in Times Square.
00:37:22.000 And they go, deal. But we don't know how much money she actually got out of that deal.
00:37:27.000 brand. First she got this whole deal with, it was Barstool first, then to Spotify. I think it was on
00:37:32.000 Sirius at one point. She's also built her platform as an influencer. So she makes however much money
00:37:37.000 Oh right.
00:37:37.000 of every brand deal. I mean, there is no doubt that this is a multi-millionaire. And the only
00:37:42.000 thing that she could come up to, or at least be told by the Harris campaign that women are
00:37:46.000 interested in, is what, abortion and being mad at men?
00:37:49.000 Doesn't that seem like it's a disservice to Her deal was $125 million over three years.
00:37:59.000 So about $40 some odd million per year.
00:38:02.000 How much of that is stock?
00:38:03.000 How much of that is marketing guarantees?
00:38:06.000 How much of that is in some way deferred?
00:38:09.000 How much is direct compensation?
00:38:10.000 How much of that is staffing?
00:38:12.000 You know, these deals sound like they're making tons of money, but you are right.
00:38:15.000 Her Instagram is $3 million.
00:38:16.000 She's selling that. She's probably making, let me just do some quick math, what, $20 million, $30 million a year cash?
00:38:23.000 Nah, I think she's probably doing more than $30 million.
00:38:25.000 She might be doing $50 million a year.
00:38:27.000 I don't know how much of that is going to go into her production costs and everything, but I'd imagine probably $50 million a year sounds about right.
00:38:34.000 Right, plus the merch, plus the tour.
00:38:36.000 That's all of it. And her wedding was featured in Vogue.
00:38:38.000 I mean, there are tons of ways this person is making money that are not accessible to, you know...
00:38:43.000 The average political podcaster or something else, which is totally fine.
00:38:46.000 Like, she built an empire. I, again, I just go back to the fact that, you know, normally, and I don't watch her show, but I have seen clips.
00:38:52.000 She's on, like, a couch and wearing full sweatpants.
00:38:55.000 And for Kamala Harris, she has heels on, is in some sort of stiffer chair, and is taking questions that Kamala Harris has pre-agreed to answer.
00:39:02.000 To me, it's like she's not even sticking by the values that seem to build up her empire.
00:39:06.000 Hold on, hold on. Alex Cooper said they were not pre-scripted and nothing was off-limits.
00:39:11.000 I don't believe her at all.
00:39:13.000 Do you believe that? You've played Magic before, right? Have you kept up with Magic the Gathering?
00:39:42.000 Is there anything I should know?
00:39:44.000 What's the most valuable card right now?
00:39:47.000 All she knows, Alex Cooper, is that she wants to get an abortion.
00:39:50.000 So they knew going in, they didn't give her any preset questions.
00:39:54.000 She's going to ask about abortion and some other garbled nonsense because she doesn't fact check anything.
00:39:58.000 And it's not her job to. She's a sex gossiper, you know, like sex and commentary and gossip.
00:40:03.000 And I'm not trying to say that disparagingly.
00:40:05.000 I'm saying she's the best at what she does, but that's her space.
00:40:07.000 I mean, I'm not going to go...
00:40:10.000 I don't know.
00:40:13.000 I don't know.
00:40:35.000 I think I read this quote from one of the interview where she says, I just couldn't imagine an election where women's rights were a major talking point and I wasn't involved.
00:40:45.000 If you are the savior of women, why did you do such a bad job?
00:40:49.000 Abortion is the fifth.
00:40:51.000 Fifth issue. I gotta say.
00:40:54.000 Groceries. Groceries is number one.
00:40:55.000 Number one. Number one. Immigration and wages.
00:40:58.000 Like, economic factors dominate.
00:40:59.000 Abortion is like...
00:41:01.000 What is it? What is it? Like, six percent or some ridiculously small number?
00:41:04.000 The only reason... Excuse me.
00:41:06.000 The only reason abortion does...
00:41:08.000 They continue to talk about abortion is because it's a fear tactic.
00:41:14.000 They're trying to scare women that are generally thinking, what if I might need an abortion?
00:41:19.000 That's why it goes for even women that are married or women that are in committed relationships that wouldn't have an abortion.
00:41:27.000 They still use it to convince them because the situation is, well, what if you needed one?
00:41:32.000 What if you got But they never fix that problem.
00:41:34.000 They never go, we're going to make it legal or illegal.
00:41:36.000 It's always, well, we'll just kind of keep it up in the air so we can use it as an election issue.
00:41:40.000 We can bring more people to the polls and go, oh, they're going to take away your rights to go.
00:41:43.000 And it's not abortion anymore.
00:41:44.000 It's women's rights, which they then tag on.
00:41:46.000 Women's health care. Right after Roe was repealed or overturned, it was, well, it's not just abortion.
00:41:52.000 It's the birth control pill. Oh, well, it's not just the birth control pill.
00:41:55.000 It's fertility treatments. I mean, it became this ever-expansive issue, which is very fear-based.
00:41:59.000 Like, what if you need these things?
00:42:01.000 What are you going to do if they... Maybe take them away in the future.
00:42:04.000 But again, if this is the big women's podcast of our generation, I get that maybe you would devote a little bit of time to this, but why did you miss all the other major issues?
00:42:12.000 What about all the women who are listening to you who are like, wow, Alex, you're an amazing businesswoman.
00:42:16.000 I want to do that too one day.
00:42:17.000 Why wouldn't you ask about the economy?
00:42:19.000 Why wouldn't you ask about housing?
00:42:21.000 That's one thing Kamala knows about is her small business plan.
00:42:24.000 You think they would have talked about that?
00:42:26.000 Yes, her opportunity economy.
00:42:27.000 Yeah, ridiculous. Pop quiz hot shots.
00:42:33.000 Call Her Daddy released a segment from the Kamala Harris interview on her show on YouTube.
00:42:41.000 How many views did she get in 24 hours on her mega Kamala Harris interview?
00:42:50.000 On YouTube? Yeah, on YouTube.
00:42:53.000 You said 6 million? What do you say, Phil?
00:42:56.000 You're not cheating, are you? No, no, no.
00:42:58.000 Looking up Call Her Daddy podcast?
00:43:00.000 I have not. Click and subscribe?
00:43:01.000 I'm going to go with 10. 10 views?
00:43:03.000 10 million. 10 million.
00:43:04.000 Are you guys joking? I feel like I'll give it like 100,000 maybe.
00:43:09.000 260,000.
00:43:11.000 Wow. I totally over blew that one.
00:43:13.000 Yeah. Wow.
00:43:14.000 But that says a lot. That's actually a good sign.
00:43:16.000 So here's the Call Her Daddy podcast, which, look, you know, I gotta say this is really interesting.
00:43:22.000 That's not the whole interview, that's the clip.
00:43:23.000 Is that overall? The whole interview is Not up.
00:43:26.000 Not over all the platforms?
00:43:28.000 No, no, no. On YouTube, a segment was released from the Kamala Harris interview.
00:43:33.000 It's eight minutes long.
00:43:34.000 It got 260,000 views, but it's titled Vice President Kamala Harris on her channel.
00:43:38.000 It's not the full thing.
00:43:40.000 They put up a clip. It's really fascinating to me when I see this.
00:43:44.000 I do believe that...
00:43:46.000 I think the podcast industry, like most industries, is fake and manipulation of stupid people by anyone who's willing to actually play that game.
00:43:55.000 So Call Her Daddy has 981,000 subscribers.
00:43:59.000 That's actually considered not a big channel on YouTube.
00:44:03.000 And look, we have 2 million here on Timcast IRL. We're considered a medium to large.
00:44:07.000 I'm not kidding. In the industry, when people are talking, it's like, oh, you're like a medium to large size.
00:44:12.000 The larger podcasts have 7, 8 million or more, 10 million on YouTube.
00:44:17.000 I'm not talking specifically about podcasts.
00:44:18.000 But to do an interview with Kamala Harris and only get $260K in a day, that is shocking.
00:44:25.000 That's actually really surprising.
00:44:28.000 That's why I asked you guys— Did they post this on X? I don't know.
00:44:31.000 I don't know. I'm just saying for YouTube because I know YouTube numbers.
00:44:34.000 Right. Well, X, I think it would be more inflated.
00:44:37.000 I think I was thinking that would be an X number, would be $6 million.
00:44:41.000 I assume that it would have gotten a lot of shares on your mainstream media news.
00:44:46.000 I'm sure it did. And audio side is interesting.
00:44:50.000 So I'll tell you what's really fascinating about the media industry while we're here, because I'm such a nerd on this stuff.
00:44:55.000 We research it every day. We live it every single day running a podcast.
00:45:00.000 What are the numbers, the ratings for top shows?
00:45:04.000 Now, historically, television shows, cable shows, news shows have always released their ratings, telling you here's how many people we believe watch.
00:45:11.000 On YouTube, on Instagram, on X, every single one of these platforms, they all tell you what the ratings are.
00:45:19.000 It is forward-facing.
00:45:22.000 Podcasts are the only systems, for whatever reason, that obfuscate their true ratings.
00:45:28.000 You know why? Because they count subscribers as automatic listeners.
00:45:33.000 That's one thing. So if you subscribe to a podcast, they're like, well, they already listened to it.
00:45:36.000 They subscribed to it because it went to their folders, and we call that a view.
00:45:40.000 It's very weird how the podcast industry works in that you can look at Apple Podcasts right now.
00:45:46.000 And I'm going to give you guys some deep lore right here.
00:45:50.000 iTunes was the biggest in the game for a long time.
00:45:53.000 Okay. Currently, YouTube has taken over as the number one podcasting platform, which is nuts.
00:45:58.000 It's kind of crazy. Spotify has just skyrocketed second place, and iTunes has collapsed down to third place of the big three places to consume podcasts.
00:46:07.000 iTunes is actually way down, which is interesting because Apple Podcasts...
00:46:11.000 They kind of folded into music, too, didn't they?
00:46:12.000 That's probably part of the problem.
00:46:13.000 I think that's part of the thing. Well, I can tell you, most people who watch our show on the audio side are listening on Apple Podcasts.
00:46:22.000 So that's why I say, you know, if you're listening on Apple Podcasts, leave us a good review
00:46:25.000 because we never ask and we should.
00:46:28.000 But the fascinating thing is I think the numbers are way worse than people realize.
00:46:34.000 And I think people are making assumptions about how big these shows are.
00:46:37.000 What I can tell you is I don't know where we're at now, but six or so years ago, the
00:46:43.000 number one podcast was Joe Rogan.
00:46:47.000 And on the audio side, I could be totally wrong.
00:46:50.000 I don't know anything about Joe.
00:46:51.000 I believe it was on a million downloads per episode.
00:46:54.000 And then the second and third were like 500, 300.
00:46:57.000 And then it dropped significantly from there.
00:46:58.000 It's an exponential gain.
00:47:00.000 The top podcast got overwhelmingly the most.
00:47:02.000 And then you go down.
00:47:04.000 I can tell you this.
00:47:05.000 There was a point where the Tim Pool Morning Show was the 34th biggest podcast in the world.
00:47:12.000 And that was when I did a show every day, no days off.
00:47:17.000 And before Timcast IRL existed.
00:47:19.000 How many views do you think we got per episode as the 30 as the peak position number 34 in
00:47:25.000 What year? What year are you...
00:47:27.000 This is four...
00:47:30.000 I'll say five years ago.
00:47:31.000 Five years ago. Five years ago.
00:47:33.000 And this is when Apple was, you know, really, really big.
00:47:36.000 And Tim Pool Morning Show, which for those that don't know, it's my morning monologuing show.
00:47:41.000 Yeah, covering news and...
00:47:42.000 Right. So number 34 in the world.
00:47:44.000 What do you guys think per episode? 220.
00:47:46.000 220? No guesses?
00:47:49.000 I don't know. 75,000.
00:47:50.000 Wow. 75,000 views on a two-hour show, and we were ranked number 34.
00:47:57.000 And I know, because I worked with other networks, and when we did ad stuff, that some of the top five were getting a couple hundred thousand.
00:48:04.000 Timcast IRL does 300 overnight.
00:48:07.000 We went on Friday night. The one you would have is like 350 already.
00:48:10.000 Because people love Brimcast?
00:48:12.000 People love Brimcast. Is that what you're telling me?
00:48:13.000 My point to bring all this stuff up is...
00:48:15.000 The media, the corporate press, pretends that these shows are massive and they do these deals because this is what they want people to strive for, to get these big deals.
00:48:28.000 And then you don't see TimCast IRL or even Daily Wire shows featured in any of these big networks, even though the Daily Wire shows audio set are massive.
00:48:37.000 And TimCast IRL, I will say this, I will say this, I gotta pause.
00:48:40.000 TimCast IRL is currently featured on YouTube's live front page.
00:48:44.000 So you go to YouTube Live, boom, Timcast IRL is playing, Temple Morning Show is playing.
00:48:49.000 Thank you, YouTube, for whatever reason.
00:48:51.000 That's the first time in years.
00:48:53.000 I mean, this was not standard for a long time.
00:48:56.000 Honestly, I don't know.
00:48:57.000 What I can tell you is in the past week, people messaged us being like, hey, you guys are being featured on YouTube Live.
00:49:03.000 YouTube has a default live player when you go to YouTube Live, and it's us.
00:49:06.000 And I was like... Shout out, YouTube!
00:49:08.000 YouTube wants Alex Jones back, secretly.
00:49:10.000 That's what it is. They made a lot of money off him.
00:49:12.000 Oh, they did. Of course they did. They were showing background stuff, and it was billions of views with what he was doing back in before YouTube was crazy.
00:49:21.000 But you know what happened? It was Wall Street Journal.
00:49:24.000 They launched the adpocalypse where they started targeting YouTube relentlessly.
00:49:28.000 Sleeping giants. Yes.
00:49:31.000 But Wall Street Journal was running these stories saying that YouTube is running ads alongside the likes of Alex Jones and other far-right.
00:49:37.000 The advertisers said, we don't know what you're doing or why.
00:49:40.000 We don't want to be involved. And before that, advertisers were happy.
00:49:43.000 They didn't care because they were getting the numbers.
00:49:45.000 The sales were working.
00:49:46.000 This is crazy. We can go back seven years.
00:49:49.000 It used to be, let's say seven years ago, Seven years ago.
00:49:54.000 You could... Let's go back 10 years.
00:49:57.000 One cent per view.
00:49:58.000 You're an advertiser.
00:49:59.000 You got a brand new product. You could put a dollar on YouTube and get 100 views on your product.
00:50:05.000 Sales were cheap to get.
00:50:07.000 Then the apocalypse happened.
00:50:09.000 YouTube got attacked relentlessly and they said, you need to delete all of these channels, namely Alex Jones.
00:50:15.000 They were like... 100 million views a month?
00:50:18.000 We don't want ads appearing on that, and we're going to attack you and attack your stock until you get rid of it.
00:50:23.000 And this shattered YouTube inventory.
00:50:25.000 YouTube used to have too many videos to advertise on, so the cost per ad was one cent.
00:50:30.000 Wow. Now, if you wanted a premium position, like I want to be on CNN or whatever big network...
00:50:35.000 Yeah, you pay the premium. That could be upwards of 40 bucks per thousand, sorry.
00:50:40.000 Now... You're not really going to get those numbers anymore because the adpocalypse wiped everything out and YouTube started – well, not having to, but started banning tons of channels.
00:50:49.000 And so now you're left with what you're left with, I guess.
00:50:52.000 But anyway, long story short, my point in all this is the reason why I showed the Call Her Daddy at 260K – This stuff is not popular, okay?
00:51:01.000 When they put WAP and all these nasty songs where, like, Lil Nas X is banging the devil and stuff, and they want to tell you this is popular, it is to a certain degree, but it's artificially being inflated because they want to control the cultural narrative.
00:51:16.000 So they say, the biggest podcast, it's number one, well, I gotta tell you.
00:51:21.000 If you look at Apple, Caller Daddy is number one.
00:51:23.000 If you look at Spotify, it's I think number 10.
00:51:27.000 I could be wrong. It could be higher than that.
00:51:29.000 But on Spotify, Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson, I think Ben Shapiro dominate the top.
00:51:34.000 And Spotify has taken over for where people are getting their podcasts.
00:51:38.000 So I just want to wrap that up by saying, don't believe all of this stuff is culturally dominant.
00:51:44.000 It is being manufactured to convince you you are the underdog and you are on the outside.
00:51:50.000 When in fact, I think Axe shows how true things really are.
00:51:54.000 Every single time I see a pollster, like there's like a— They'll be like, who are you voting for?
00:52:03.000 It's just boom, Trump.
00:52:04.000 And then everyone says, well, it's because X is a right-wing platform.
00:52:06.000 Since when? Do you really expect me to believe that 70 million liberals quit X and 70 million conservatives joined X when Elon Musk bought it?
00:52:15.000 Don't buy it for a second.
00:52:17.000 No, because they didn't launch an alternative.
00:52:19.000 Maybe let a couple million accounts back on.
00:52:21.000 Right. Well, when people were getting kicked off of X, I mean, we saw—I mean, obviously there's Truth Social, but we saw a lot—a rise of alternative where people were like, you know, X is not allowing free speech.
00:52:31.000 Elon Musk bought it, and I don't know of any liberals who were like, please join us on our alternative to— Well, they tried to go to Blue Sky.
00:52:39.000 There was the attempt to make Mastodon a thing, which didn't work because that's too complex for your average journalist.
00:52:44.000 Then there was the—there was Blue Sky, which I think was— I want to jump to this Elon story real quick, but I do want to say one thing.
00:53:09.000 Guys, everyone is manipulating you.
00:53:11.000 It's the name of the game.
00:53:13.000 And so when it comes to ad sales, everybody's lying about everything.
00:53:17.000 They're trying to find ways to make it seem like they're bigger than they are so they can blame the advertiser if the product won't move.
00:53:23.000 It's a struggle. It is.
00:53:25.000 I want to say one thing particularly.
00:53:27.000 I was at the Butler Rally. It was awesome.
00:53:30.000 We brought Cybertruck.
00:53:31.000 We had to power the War Room podcast.
00:53:33.000 And I saw something from Elon Musk.
00:53:35.000 He tweeted something like, 12 million live viewers.
00:53:39.000 Twitter changed their viewer metric on live streams from concurrent to total viewership, and they did it in such a way that your average person doesn't know.
00:53:51.000 So when we on IRL did a live stream on X, and it got 800,000 views, we had people hitting us up like crazy saying, you had 800,000 people watching live, why aren't you only going on X? And I'm like, no.
00:54:06.000 No. We had 800,000 total viewers, and the retention rate for X is very low.
00:54:14.000 The concurrent rate was moderate.
00:54:16.000 I think we had 17,000 concurrent viewers.
00:54:19.000 They changed it for this reason— In my opinion, and I'm a fan of Elon Musk, but when he tweets 12 million live viewers or when people say something like, wow, a million people are watching, a million people watched.
00:54:32.000 But I got to tell you, in the industry right now, talking with some of the big shots at various networks, they are pissed that Elon Musk did this because it is basically like a dirty play.
00:54:45.000 It's like, what would you describe it?
00:54:46.000 It's angle shooting in poker.
00:54:48.000 Way to pull more money out of the advertising.
00:54:49.000 So all the other networks are sitting here being like, we can't change our concurrent metric the way he did.
00:54:56.000 It's because then people get false assumptions about viewership size and ad sales,
00:55:03.000 and it's disruptive to our market.
00:55:04.000 But Elon did.
00:55:06.000 So when you go live on X, that number where it shows a little person and the numbers going up is your total viewership and not your concurrent viewership, which are two different numbers.
00:55:15.000 But then people believe that, oh man, I better go on X because I get way more viewers.
00:55:20.000 Then you look in the back end, you look in your studio and you're like, oh, it's actually a lot less.
00:55:24.000 Part of the reason is because people know YouTube is where people get used to going to the same place.
00:55:29.000 So when people think of Timcast or IRL, they're going to go to YouTube because that's where they're familiar with it.
00:55:35.000 And it's a similar phenomenon when it comes to concerts, like shows, underground shows.
00:55:40.000 If you have a venue that consistently hosts hardcore bands or metal bands, everyone knows, oh...
00:55:47.000 I hear this band's going on tour.
00:55:49.000 Let me check the venue I know that has those bands to see if they're coming to my town.
00:55:53.000 If for some reason they're at a venue that doesn't normally host those bands, people will oftentimes miss the tour or whatever.
00:56:02.000 Let's jump to the story from the post-millennial.
00:56:04.000 Elon Musk says the reason Kamala has so much powerful support is because Epstein client list will come out under Trump.
00:56:11.000 This is epic.
00:56:13.000 See, you know, and I'm critical of Elon where I think I need to be, but I'm a huge fan and this is an epic takedown of, what is he talking about, Reid Hoffman and Bill Gates?
00:56:22.000 Will that ever come out, do you think? You know, I think part of why Kamala's getting so much support is that if Trump wins, that FC and client list is going to become public.
00:56:37.000 That's awesome. Some of those billionaires behind Kamala are terrified of that outcome.
00:56:41.000 Yeah. Do you think Reid Hoffman's uncomfortable?
00:56:43.000 Yes. Wow.
00:56:46.000 And Gates. And Gates.
00:56:48.000 Yeah. I only ask that because you just look at them and you're like, that's a nervous person right there.
00:56:53.000 I don't know. I mean, I assume you know them.
00:56:55.000 Yeah. Yes. Reid Hoffman was my vice president of business development at PayPal.
00:57:01.000 Oh, my God. Wow.
00:57:03.000 Four years ago. Does he seem nervous to you?
00:57:11.000 Yeah. I mean, he's terrified of a Trump victory.
00:57:15.000 Because of the disclosure that would follow?
00:57:17.000 I think... Yeah, I mean I think he's certainly ideologically not aligned with Trump anyway, but I think he is concerned about the Epstein situation.
00:57:29.000 There you go. Gates and Hoffman and many others are concerned that Trump is going to release that information.
00:57:35.000 He said he would. Trump said he would do it.
00:57:37.000 Well, now you've got the one-two punch. You've got Diddy and Epstein.
00:57:40.000 You don't have to even really like Trump at all to want Trump to win just because of the things that would happen under a Trump president.
00:57:47.000 You can hate Trump all you want. But if the client list is going to come out, you know that generally the economy is probably going to do better because it's a more friendly business environment than a Harris presidency would be.
00:58:02.000 you know, the likelihood is the cost of gas is going to go down, the cost of everything
00:58:06.000 else will likely go down because of the increased production of fossil fuels.
00:58:14.000 And it's just the list of things that are likely to happen under a Trump presidency,
00:58:19.000 completely and totally independent of Donald Trump himself, like it's enough reason to
00:58:23.000 be like, I want Trump to win.
00:58:24.000 You can have economic reasons for wanting to vote for Donald Trump, but the reality
00:58:28.000 is if you do not like the way things are right now, meaning that there is no transparency
00:58:33.000 on the Epstein situation, that things are very expensive, that people are generally
00:58:37.000 pretty hopeless, that people are concerned about crime and schools and increasing tensions
00:58:42.000 out where you wouldn't then vote for the current VP.
00:58:46.000 You need to vote for Trump, which is this fascinating position that he's in because
00:58:49.000 he has both an experienced president and also the alternative to the current situation.
00:58:56.000 You know, there's one other president in history, right, that's been able to do this where he
00:59:00.000 didn't serve.
00:59:01.000 He served twice, but not consecutively.
00:59:03.000 And I actually think in this case that is one of the reasons that there are a lot of people who don't necessarily love Trump but look at Kamala Harris as an extension of the Biden and therefore the Obama and therefore the overarching DNC machine that has kept them in the dark and kept them paying for a lot of stuff and they're kind of frustrated with it.
00:59:22.000 Well, and it's interesting to see how the billionaires are drawing sides, because there's some billionaires that are for Trump, but not too many.
00:59:28.000 There's not too many billionaires that are for Trump.
00:59:30.000 It seems to be the average man, because they want to see what's behind the curtain, because we've been hearing about, how long have we been hearing about Epstein?
00:59:36.000 Yeah. You know, 15 years.
00:59:39.000 Now we have this Diddy stuff, which has been out there if you were looking for the seeds that were being planted.
00:59:44.000 Eminem. Yeah, was it Eminem lyric?
00:59:46.000 He's like R-A-P-E-R. Did I just spell rapper without the P, Diddy?
00:59:51.000 Yeah. Or something like that.
00:59:52.000 And it's like, oh, whoa.
00:59:54.000 There's a lot of stuff.
00:59:55.000 And I think this whole indictment, the original indictment by the DOJ was just to grab all the evidence and hide it.
01:00:02.000 And hopefully there's copies out there, but to keep that out of the limelight while this, you know, so there's no October surprise of, oh, now we have videos and names.
01:00:10.000 Yeah, I mean, the judge said that the reason that he was withholding the client list is because of the damage to society, essentially the damage to society that it would do if the list got out.
01:00:25.000 Right.
01:00:27.000 Right. It's like when Biden says, oh, well, I'm and Harris, Biden and Harris both say,
01:00:31.000 oh, well, we're not going to go toward the impacted areas, the areas impacted by Hurricane
01:00:35.000 Helene because we don't want to interrupt emergency services, right? Like all presidents
01:00:41.000 are able to pull this off somehow without being a distraction from emergency services.
01:00:45.000 It seems like perhaps you just don't want to. And so therefore you have come up with some sort of
01:00:50.000 fake altruistic excuse. The judge is saying, oh, I don't want to. It could what it could do to
01:00:54.000 society. But actually what it means is like, I don't want to have to do my name's on that list.
01:00:58.000 Right. And I don't want to deal with the fact that you'll find out that I took donations from
01:01:01.000 whoever. Like there are all kinds of ways people are self-serving in the name while pretending to
01:01:05.000 be that for the people.
01:01:07.000 This song is from 2024, called Fuel, Eminem and J-I-D, and one of the lyrics is, I'm like a R-A-P-E-R, got so many essays, essays.
01:01:17.000 Wait, he didn't just spell the word rapper and leave out a P, did he?
01:01:20.000 Rest in peace, R-I-P, rest in peace, Biggie.
01:01:24.000 Yeah, he's saying it outright.
01:01:26.000 I mean there's been a lot of rumors that have gone around for a long time.
01:01:29.000 It's not something that is foreign to people in the rap or the music business world.
01:01:35.000 And this is why so many prominent pop stars just came out in support of Kamala Harris.
01:01:40.000 I – look, a lot of people – like Taylor Swift comes out and she's just like, I'm going to vote for Harris.
01:01:46.000 And it was kind of – I don't know, flaccid.
01:01:50.000 Like, she didn't make a very strong case for it.
01:01:52.000 She just made her post with a dog or with her cat or whatever.
01:01:55.000 And then you had a couple other people say – well, I think Joja Siwa was like – what did she say?
01:01:59.000 Like, it's so great of you to endorse but didn't endorse directly.
01:02:03.000 But then you had – Billie Eilish endorsed her.
01:02:05.000 Billie Eilish. Sort of lackluster.
01:02:07.000 You had the most aggressive, I think, was Haley Williams of Paramore, who walks up to the camera and then just spits this, like, misinformation spiel.
01:02:16.000 Donald Trump's Project 2025 wants to take the rights away from women, poor people, LGBTQ. And a lot of people were like, I bet she's on Diddy's list.
01:02:24.000 And I'm like, no. No, no, no, no.
01:02:26.000 She's not. Her label, maybe.
01:02:29.000 Her manager, maybe.
01:02:31.000 Somebody who's in an organizational position above her music probably said, hey, go do this.
01:02:37.000 Because they, the people behind the scenes of the labels, are connected to Diddy and whatever it is Diddy was doing.
01:02:44.000 And so they're pulling all the stops.
01:02:46.000 You know what I mean? It's Clive Davis to Diddy and everybody in between.
01:02:50.000 But again, it speaks to the elitism.
01:02:52.000 You don't want to be in between. Oh, gosh.
01:02:55.000 But it speaks to this elitism that I think Americans are more so than ever aware of right now, that our system would work to protect Epstein and Diddy and other people, but it wouldn't work to protect actual Americans, let's say impacted by a hurricane.
01:03:11.000 I think there is a frustration there.
01:03:13.000 And You know, we were talking earlier about voters who, like, how do you reach them?
01:03:18.000 Are they low IQ or are they just not interested in politics?
01:03:22.000 I think there is a level of, like Phil had mentioned on Friday, people vote with their gut, but when their gut tells them they are being abused, they don't want to stick with the current system.
01:03:32.000 I think you'll see voters who won't necessarily be suddenly engaged with politics, but they will say, this is not good and I don't like it, and that will make them turn out Not all of them, but I think there is the emotional reaction of, I'm done with this.
01:03:46.000 You are treating me badly. I don't want to do this anymore.
01:03:48.000 I hope. I mean, that would be a wonderful development.
01:03:53.000 But I don't know that I believe there are enough people in the movable world.
01:04:02.000 Well, something like 5%, right?
01:04:04.000 It's something like 5% are actually truly undecided voters.
01:04:07.000 They'll say 10, but really that includes a percentage that leans right or leans left.
01:04:11.000 And so the question is, for all of those polls, are you polling just people in America who have the right and the ability to vote or people who are likely voters?
01:04:20.000 Likely voters are different than people who are absolutely never politically engaged,
01:04:24.000 even though they are, you know, they could be legally registered and everything else,
01:04:28.000 they just won't do it. But you can't really count on them to suddenly wake up anyway.
01:04:32.000 So again, it goes after this, like, likely voter who is truly undecided. And that is sort of a
01:04:38.000 unicorn. And I think it makes sense that both sides of the aisle are now sort of messaging
01:04:42.000 to their own people. Why Kamala Harris would go on a podcast and be like, abortion is such a big
01:04:47.000 issue because that's how she sort of soft launched her her debut on the stage. Anyways, I don't know
01:04:51.000 if you remember this, but there was a point Biden was still running. But there was a point where
01:04:55.000 they're like, she's gonna go on a national abortion tour, which I thought was funny,
01:04:58.000 because it was like, go away, Kamala, get out of the White House and do something.
01:05:02.000 But it was sort of the only issue she had tied to her name that she was willing to talk about.
01:05:06.000 Of course, she has ties to the border, but she doesn't want to talk about that, all kinds of stuff.
01:05:11.000 She doesn't want to talk about law and order?
01:05:13.000 No, she'll talk about how he's a felon, she's a prosecutor, but she doesn't want to talk about what she did as a prosecutor.
01:05:19.000 She has a history she wants to walk away from.
01:05:21.000 But again, I think we're far enough down the path.
01:05:24.000 We're less than 30 days out from the election today.
01:05:27.000 You know, the idea that you would find you would really convert that last two percent of voters is unlikely.
01:05:33.000 You just now need to make sure the people who are likely to vote, who have voted for you in the past, really are going to turn out to the polls.
01:05:39.000 And I think Harris has a much harder time with that than Trump does right now.
01:05:42.000 I don't think there's that many undecided at this point.
01:05:44.000 I think people have made up their minds and I think they're listening to their pocketbook.
01:05:48.000 And, you know, those that are brainwashed are brainwashed and they think that there's going to be some other, you know, there's another carrot in front of them and they're going to go with that.
01:05:56.000 But I think it's a lot, if it's an honest election, which we know it won't be, but I mean, I can't see Trump not winning.
01:06:06.000 Or something crazy.
01:06:07.000 I don't think it's going to be crazy at all.
01:06:10.000 I think it's just the federal government has been putting its finger on the scale since 2016.
01:06:18.000 Well, they said you can't take names off the voter rolls now.
01:06:20.000 All of a sudden, they made this rule.
01:06:21.000 Yeah, the federal government has an opinion.
01:06:24.000 Clearly it has an opinion, which it's not supposed to have.
01:06:27.000 I've said this multiple times on the show.
01:06:28.000 The federal government is not supposed to have an opinion on who the population decides they want to run the federal government.
01:06:35.000 If we are actually a government run for the people and by the people, then the people should be deciding who gets in and out and who is taken out of office simply by the vote.
01:06:48.000 And the federal government shouldn't be propagandizing the people or influencing the people.
01:06:53.000 And they shouldn't be trying to say, well, if you vote for me, we'll go ahead and we'll make sure that we give you these special giveaways.
01:06:59.000 And that's the entire business of the federal government nowadays.
01:07:03.000 To the point where the president says, hey, we'll forgive your student loans.
01:07:06.000 The Supreme Court says, no, you're not supposed to do that.
01:07:10.000 And they're still saying, well, we're going to figure out a way to do it.
01:07:13.000 You know, there is no limitation to the executive by the rest of the government anymore.
01:07:22.000 Let's do a hard segue to this story from NBC News.
01:07:24.000 And I kind of want to talk more about Marjorie Taylor Greene saying that they control the weather.
01:07:29.000 And of course the media put they in quotes, but first, this is really important.
01:07:34.000 Milton has intensified into a Category 5 hurricane.
01:07:37.000 Massive surge warning. So before we get into the more political nature of what the story is, I just want to say please heed the warnings from local law enforcement, from, look, you got Ron DeSantis out there.
01:07:48.000 He's been doing a great job with Helene.
01:07:50.000 Now Milton coming through.
01:07:52.000 He's done really well, I mean, relative to the other states.
01:07:54.000 Take it seriously. I know we got a handful of our friends who are saying they're going to stay there, but they're not on the west side of Florida.
01:08:01.000 It's going to be serious.
01:08:02.000 But... We're good to go.
01:08:25.000 They said it may strengthen to a hurricane and then hit Florida.
01:08:29.000 Then I see the next update.
01:08:30.000 It's looking like it'll be a major hurricane.
01:08:32.000 They were saying maybe it will be a Category 3.
01:08:35.000 Then this morning they said it's a Category 3.
01:08:37.000 It may actually get to the point where it becomes a 4 or a 5.
01:08:40.000 We will see. Two hours later they're like, it's a 4.
01:08:43.000 Two hours later, it's a 5.
01:08:45.000 Now they're saying it's even crazier.
01:08:46.000 So here's what ends up happening. Several days ago Marjorie Taylor Greene tweets out, and I'll show you.
01:08:52.000 She says, this is a map of hurricane-affected areas with an overlay of electoral map by political party.
01:08:56.000 Shows how hurricane devastation could affect the election.
01:08:59.000 And do they have her other tweet in here?
01:09:01.000 She tweeted something saying, yes, they can control the weather.
01:09:04.000 That's obvious. Now, it's true.
01:09:07.000 Governments, corporations, special interests have the ability to manipulate weather to a certain degree.
01:09:12.000 That is... We've got cloud seeding.
01:09:15.000 We saw the story recently in, I think it was where, the Emirates or Dubai?
01:09:19.000 There was major flooding. It was Dubai?
01:09:21.000 It was Dubai. Major flooding because their cloud seeding operation was too good.
01:09:26.000 So they were spraying some potassium derivative or some compound in the air, which basically causes the moisture to start condensing around the particles, and then it makes rain, and then that rain falls because there's moisture in the air basically all the time.
01:09:40.000 So this is basically what Marjorie Taylor Greene is trying to imply.
01:09:43.000 With this, it looks like she's trying to imply that Republican strongholds are being destroyed by a hurricane that was— The government or deep state's doing, I guess?
01:09:55.000 I mean, look, Marjorie Taylor Greene saying that, you know, the government or special interests can control the weather and then showing Republican areas being slammed by this is making the insinuation that the weather is being controlled.
01:10:06.000 But I do want to pull this tweet up here from Noah Berggren.
01:10:11.000 He is a meteorologist on Fox 35 Orlando, and he says, 897 MB pressure with 180 mph max, sustained winds and gusts, 200 mph.
01:10:37.000 This is now the fourth strongest hurricane ever recorded by pressure on this side of the world.
01:10:42.000 The eye is tiny at nearly 3.8 miles wide.
01:10:46.000 This hurricane is nearing the mathematical limit of what Earth's atmosphere over this ocean's water can produce.
01:10:54.000 So, look, I don't know if you want to believe that this is government action, but I don't believe the government can make the most powerful hurricane ever.
01:11:05.000 I just—or whoever.
01:11:07.000 I don't know. Do you guys think that HAARP is firing radio waves or something?
01:11:12.000 Allow me to put on my tinfoil hat and— Back in the 60s, they were doing this, and I explained this earlier when we were talking about it, but Ben Livingston was a guy who was running.
01:11:22.000 He was a weather guy, and then they put him into Vietnam and said, hey, make weather happen.
01:11:29.000 We want to bomb the Ho Chi Minh Trail with rain.
01:11:32.000 We want to take it out. So in the 60s, they were doing this.
01:11:35.000 He's called the father of weather weapons.
01:11:37.000 And that was just using cloud seeding.
01:11:40.000 Now, we know that if you've seen some of these radar things where they show the Doppler radar areas that are out there, and they'll show a map of just a bunch of circles.
01:11:49.000 Boom, boom, boom. And they're pulsing almost.
01:11:52.000 And you can see this over and over again in these videos with these storms.
01:11:56.000 And what that is, and this is my opinion, that these Doppler radar stations have a dual purpose.
01:12:02.000 One is to see where the weather is, but the other thing is to put out ionizing radiation.
01:12:08.000 And then you have HAARP, which is up—and there's HAARPs in other countries, too, these
01:12:12.000 antenna arrays that are heating the ionosphere, and the theory is by doing that, they can
01:12:20.000 maneuver large areas with weather. And then you have the space lasers that Marjorie
01:12:20.000 maneuver large areas with weather.
01:12:23.000 And then you have the space lasers that Marjorie Taylor Greene is talking about.
01:12:25.000 Taylor Greene is talking about. Well, she posted a video, one of her tweets
01:12:26.000 Well, she posted a video—one of her tweets was a video, I think it's Michio Kaku, talking
01:12:29.000 was a video, I think it's Michio Kaku, talking about how we shoot lasers
01:12:33.000 at weather systems to move them around. So I can speak a little bit to that
01:12:39.000 because this has been a cloud seeding technique. Germany was famous
01:12:42.000 for, going back for a little while, using infrared lasers for cloud seeding
01:12:46.000 purposes to excite molecules and then cause them to act in certain ways or
01:12:49.000 whatever to move them to condense them to make rain. I don't know about making a
01:12:53.000 hurricane though, I mean that's, that's, well, unless you're saying it's been like
01:12:57.000 60 years of development and these weather weapons have been massively strengthened?
01:13:01.000 There's patents to steer hurricanes. How do I look that up? Look that up.
01:13:05.000 I think you're just a crazy conspiracy theorist.
01:13:08.000 Oh, that's fine. Obviously, this is climate change and the environment.
01:13:10.000 Oh, totally. If we give Al Gore money, they'll all go away.
01:13:12.000 Isn't it amazing how no matter what, it's always the thing that helps the left?
01:13:16.000 Did you find it? Yes. Hurricane and tornado control device method for controlling hurricanes and application 20080047480 proposes a giant machine and method of operation to control hurricanes.
01:13:29.000 I don't believe it means these machines are viable.
01:13:31.000 A patent of someone having one is just...
01:13:34.000 That's true. That's true. Who is the guy?
01:13:36.000 Terrence Howard has a lot of patents, but what have they done?
01:13:39.000 Right. I'm obviously joking.
01:13:41.000 I just know that... But that patent's from the 40s, I think.
01:13:43.000 It's old. The 40s? Yeah, it's old.
01:13:45.000 I don't think it's new.
01:13:47.000 And they've been working on this.
01:13:48.000 They put out guidebooks where they were going into hurricanes and seeding them.
01:13:52.000 And another video I saw, this guy was tracking these...
01:13:55.000 And I think they're weather monitoring planes.
01:13:57.000 But he said these same planes also have the ability to do cloud seeding.
01:14:01.000 And maybe they're just running cloud seeding planes through there, beefing up this hurricane.
01:14:06.000 And then hitting it with other things?
01:14:08.000 I don't know. I don't know the technology.
01:14:09.000 To what end, though? Because they want Florida to not have good photo turnout?
01:14:12.000 To cause chaos. Yeah, to cause chaos.
01:14:14.000 Because maybe, hey, if you hit it in the center of the state where it's mostly red...
01:14:18.000 You don't have anything going in Miami.
01:14:20.000 You know, Miami's safe.
01:14:21.000 That's where your Democrat strongholds are.
01:14:23.000 Jacksonville's safe. The panhandle's already been slammed, which is, you know, that's Matt Gaetz country.
01:14:29.000 Right, right, right. So you go through Tampa, that's pretty much taken up.
01:14:31.000 I saw a ton of people posting about how this is...
01:14:33.000 It's not that this never happens, but it's a very unusual path.
01:14:38.000 Yeah, it seems very convenient right now.
01:14:40.000 And this hurricane, yeah, it doesn't really go...
01:14:41.000 They don't go from Mexico over into Florida.
01:14:44.000 They usually go that way.
01:14:45.000 That's so... It's extremely wild and rare, as I hear, for a hurricane to form in the Gulf and then move northeast.
01:14:55.000 And it's supposed to hit part of Mexico.
01:14:59.000 It is right now. Currently, the radar shows it over Merida, Nucatan Peninsula, I believe.
01:15:04.000 So it is getting slammed.
01:15:07.000 Okay. It's also worse if there's a high tide because it's supposed to hit Wednesday.
01:15:12.000 You've got to see when the high tide is because that makes the storms even worse.
01:15:14.000 Is it really bad for me to say, I hope it veers south?
01:15:19.000 What, to Cuba? Well, I mean, like, because if it turns south right now, it'll slam into the Yucatan and just wipe out a bunch of poor people living in these areas.
01:15:29.000 It's not all poor people. And if it heads southeast, it'll slam into Cuba and...
01:15:33.000 And so it's like, I hope it stays where it is and fizzles out, I guess, which is not likely to be the case considering the water is warm and it's fueling the hurricane.
01:15:42.000 Right. And if they can make these things stronger, then you would also think they can make them weaker.
01:15:46.000 If the government has this power, which we don't know if they do, we seem to think they do.
01:15:51.000 I seem to think they do. No, I don't think that that's the case.
01:15:54.000 No. I think it's just stronger. Well, just because you can start something doesn't mean you can stop it.
01:15:58.000 They can smash atoms, but once that chain reaction started, they're not stopping it.
01:16:03.000 That's true. So I don't think that the logic applies to it.
01:16:05.000 Bill says they only invested in one direction.
01:16:07.000 It goes one way. For argument's sake, I think cloud seeding does work, right?
01:16:12.000 It worked over Dubai.
01:16:14.000 It absolutely does work. It's been around for 100 years.
01:16:16.000 So they do have cloud seeding, so that actually is a technology that exists, but I don't think that I've heard of anything that can undo the cloud seeding.
01:16:28.000 I've never heard of anything that can stop rain that started.
01:16:31.000 Didn't Trump ask about nuking a hurricane during his administration or whatever?
01:16:35.000 Yeah. It would do nothing.
01:16:36.000 It would just add radiation to the storm.
01:16:40.000 He did say something during his inaugural address, though.
01:16:43.000 He talked about releasing the technology.
01:16:45.000 To the masses. He's apparently seen behind the curtain, and there's a lot of talk about his granddad, I guess, or his uncle, went into the Tesla factory.
01:16:55.000 So there's this thought that maybe he knows about this technology that's sitting in warehouses like the Ark of the Covenant in Indiana Jones, and he's going to open these things up, and then, oh, now we have free energy generators for every house.
01:17:09.000 I can't believe that those...
01:17:11.000 Those books from the 1800s, what are they, about Barron Trump?
01:17:15.000 Who wrote? Ingersoll Lockwood.
01:17:17.000 That's still, I still, that's a hoax.
01:17:19.000 There's no way that's real. You know about these books?
01:17:20.000 I've heard of it, yeah. Yeah, like these books apparently.
01:17:23.000 Because I thought, when I saw that, I'm like, that's got to be a hoax.
01:17:25.000 It's got to be a hoax. Apparently these books were written in the 1800s and one of them talks about Barron Trump becoming like president and then leftist anarchist towards a storm, his castle on Fifth Avenue in New York.
01:17:36.000 I'm like, this is fake.
01:17:37.000 I haven't heard Barron talk.
01:17:38.000 Have you heard him talk? Didn't he say something recently?
01:17:42.000 I don't know. No, he's just going to NYU. No one's been able to get him talking.
01:17:45.000 I did see a video of a guy pretending to be Barron Trump at a bar to impress girls, which I think is kind of funny.
01:17:50.000 I heard from... There's a Wikipedia on Barron Trump novels.
01:17:54.000 Yeah, I know.
01:17:56.000 What is it? Ingersoll Lockwood?
01:17:58.000 Yeah, the novels appear to be real.
01:18:01.000 Travels and Adventures of Little Baron Trump and His Wonderful Dog Bulger in 1889.
01:18:06.000 The sequel, Baron Trump's Marvelous Underground Journey in 1893.
01:18:12.000 I don't believe it.
01:18:13.000 I still don't believe it. Because, do they even talk about an Ingersoll Lockwood?
01:18:17.000 Do they mention the Barron Trump novels?
01:18:20.000 Yeah, when you find Ingersoll Lockwood, if you Google his name, Wikipedia has his.
01:18:23.000 They remained obscure until 2017 when AI wrote them.
01:18:26.000 It says, they remained obscure until 2017 when they received media attention for perceived similarities between their protagonist and U.S. President Donald Trump.
01:18:33.000 Yeah, because in like the third book, here let me read it, it says,
01:18:35.000 July 2017, the books were rediscovered on internet forum users,
01:18:38.000 and then by media who pointed out similarities between Trump.
01:18:41.000 Jaime Fuller wrote in Politico that Barron Trump's precocious, restless, and prone to get in
01:18:46.000 trouble.
01:18:47.000 He often mentions his massive brain, and as a personalized insult for most people he meets.
01:18:51.000 Fuller also notes that Barron Trump lives in a building named after himself, Castle Trump,
01:18:56.000 while the real-life Trump has lived in Trump Tower for decades.
01:18:59.000 Furthermore, Trump's youngest son, his name is Barron Trump.
01:19:02.000 And Donald Trump used the pseudonym John Barron in the 80s.
01:19:05.000 Chris Rado noted in Newsweek that Barron Trump's adventures begin in Russia.
01:19:09.000 Rado also mentioned another book of Lockwood's 1900, or The Last President,
01:19:13.000 in which New York City is riven by protests following the shocking victory
01:19:17.000 of a populist candidate in the 1896 presidential election, who brings on the downfall of the American Republic.
01:19:23.000 The emergence of the novels has led to some groups claiming that it suggested that Donald and or Barron had engaged in
01:19:29.000 time travel.
01:19:30.000 This was often accompanied by claims that John G. Trump, a scientist and uncle of Donald,
01:19:35.000 had created a time machine alongside Nikola Tesla.
01:19:38.000 I wish!
01:19:39.000 Please be true!
01:19:41.000 And it's fan fiction at its finest.
01:19:42.000 I mean, dude, life is so boring.
01:19:45.000 I mean, it's like not really boring.
01:19:47.000 You go outside. It's beautiful. There's birds.
01:19:48.000 They're pooping. There's crickets jumping around.
01:19:50.000 We're having fun. Chickens be yelling.
01:19:52.000 But everybody wants adventure and they want more and they want to believe this stuff.
01:19:56.000 So I'm going to live in the reality where John G. Trump seizes Nikola Tesla's secret equipment, makes a time machine, goes back in time, has a kid.
01:20:03.000 It's Trump's uncle or whatever who tells him this is what you're going to do.
01:20:07.000 And then Trump's doing it. Alright, hands on the manuscript to Inglewood.
01:20:10.000 Here you go, write this.
01:20:12.000 No, Ingersoll Lockwood is barren.
01:20:16.000 That's even better. No, I don't know.
01:20:19.000 Well, now we need one of those side-by-side face comparisons of this guy and Barry Trump.
01:20:24.000 Barren went back in time too far.
01:20:26.000 He went back to 1863 and he was like, no, we've gone too far, uncle.
01:20:32.000 Now we'll never go do what we were going to do in the past.
01:20:36.000 What were they doing in the past anyway?
01:20:37.000 I don't have no idea. They have to tell us later.
01:20:39.000 It's not for us to know right now.
01:20:41.000 I'm sorry. The idea that Trump or Barron or someone went back in time is just...
01:20:47.000 Why? What are you going to the 1800s for?
01:20:51.000 I mean, I don't believe the fantastic stuff.
01:20:54.000 That's right. I don't believe the fantastic stuff, but he was appointed by...
01:21:00.000 In 1862, he was appointed to counsel the Kingdom of Hanover by Abraham Lincoln.
01:21:04.000 I assume there would be some kind of document...
01:21:07.000 Ingersoll Lockwood. He was appointed to counsel the Kingdom of Hanover by Abraham Lincoln.
01:21:12.000 So I assume that there would be some kind of documentation if it was an official act of the government.
01:21:17.000 So, you know, I mean, at the very least, it seems like, and honestly, it seems like this is true, and honestly, it's not like Wikipedia doesn't have a leftist bent.
01:21:27.000 So anything that, if it wasn't, if this wasn't a real guy, and there was even a whiff of, you know, fabrication to...
01:21:35.000 Maybe a fact check somewhere. Yeah, I imagine they would just be like, oh, get it out of here, because there are people that work on Wikipedia that absolutely hate the right.
01:21:44.000 They're very, very far left, and they have done some creative editing to some of the posts and stuff, the entries, to benefit or to make the left look more appealing.
01:22:02.000 Right, there's a bias to their editors.
01:22:04.000 Yeah, for sure. I am not—it's hard to totally accept, like, well, they would just make the hurricane bad because of chaos for me right now.
01:22:16.000 I think in part because they suffer, too.
01:22:20.000 Like, North Carolina getting hit by a bad hurricane, and obviously this one is, like— A little weirder in its path and stuff.
01:22:25.000 It's got a democratic governor.
01:22:26.000 And so unless you're trying to, like, if you were to tell me, like, they're doing it to disrupt the election, I'd be like, okay, that's a direct motivation.
01:22:32.000 But chaos for chaos's sake seems like it would lead to risking a certain amount of power that I feel like you would need, especially for someone who already is in the know about the hurricane seeding technology.
01:22:44.000 You sound like you're drinking fluoridated water.
01:22:46.000 Maybe, maybe so.
01:22:47.000 No, I am totally kidding about the climate change things, though.
01:22:49.000 What bothers me about all of this is that was the main thing people were interested in.
01:22:55.000 I mean, the media immediately jumped to see how important it is that we talk about climate change as soon as Helene hit.
01:23:01.000 Well, they do that with any storm.
01:23:02.000 Any storm ever. And really, it's like, sure, you can say that.
01:23:06.000 That's great. But then shouldn't you also be mad that we're shipping money overseas?
01:23:10.000 So there's good news. And it's that Milton is actually going to slam into Tizamin, Merida, around Cancun in Mexico.
01:23:22.000 Or is that Belize? I don't know what these countries are.
01:23:25.000 In the Yucatan Peninsula. And so it will weaken just a little bit.
01:23:30.000 Yeah.
01:23:32.000 difficult thing to say, right? We don't want the hurricane to hit us full force.
01:23:36.000 So it benefits Americans that people in the Yucatan Peninsula are being slammed
01:23:41.000 by a Category 5 because the landmass will actually weaken the hurricane a
01:23:45.000 little bit, and by the time it passes through it will drop down to a 4 as it
01:23:49.000 approaches Florida and then ultimately slam into Tampa as a Category 3.
01:23:53.000 That's a wild path, though.
01:23:55.000 Isn't this crazy?
01:23:57.000 It's like, it's hooking every projection model is like, oh yeah, Florida, you're screwed.
01:24:01.000 Like, you are getting slammed.
01:24:02.000 Yeah, there's nothing going like, it's just going to run into Cuba.
01:24:04.000 Nothing. Nope, it's coming right for us.
01:24:08.000 That's wild. And they're already getting rain, so it's softening up the ground.
01:24:12.000 I think that's a big reason why all the states, Georgia and North Carolina and Tennessee, they were getting rained on before the hurricane hit.
01:24:19.000 Yeah, from a different way. Yeah, so you got saturated ground, and that's why you had all these mudslides.
01:24:24.000 It had the 24 inches or so just come by itself.
01:24:28.000 Might not have been as bad, but you already had, you know, it was primed.
01:24:33.000 Right. And they're already – I mean I've watched videos of people who live in Florida and their houses flooded during Helene.
01:24:42.000 They're like, we're beginning the remediation process and now they're just going to get hit again.
01:24:46.000 I mean it means that every emergency resource, any kind of recovery effort either is going to get literally washed away or it's going to have to go on pause, which means that all kinds of displacement.
01:24:58.000 Americans have to just kind of hang out and wait and see how many more hurricanes are going to hit before they can finally return to their lives.
01:25:04.000 I think the damage to Florida is going to be massive.
01:25:07.000 And what we're seeing in North Carolina and Georgia is horrifying.
01:25:11.000 Roads just no longer existing.
01:25:13.000 And... We got this tweet from Marco Rubio.
01:25:16.000 He says, several years ago I asked NHC Atlantic to show me what the worst case storm hitting Florida would look like.
01:25:23.000 What they showed me back then is almost identical to the Milton forecast now.
01:25:28.000 Eight to twelve foot storm surges in Tampa.
01:25:31.000 Five to ten at Charlotte Harbor.
01:25:33.000 Four to seven at Chokoloski.
01:25:36.000 And the Keys are going to get one to three feet.
01:25:40.000 That's wild, man. Tampa is going to get flattened by this.
01:25:46.000 This is just, it's crazy to see.
01:25:47.000 So I hope everybody's taking this seriously.
01:25:49.000 Whatever it is, people were begging us to move to Florida.
01:25:53.000 And I was just like, guys, I don't want to move to Florida, right?
01:25:55.000 Because you got rain and it's hot.
01:25:58.000 But I do want to say this. I do want to say this.
01:25:59.000 We have a lot of friends in Florida.
01:26:01.000 So for those of you who are members over at TimCast.com, I thank you for your membership.
01:26:05.000 and if you are not, you should be. So everybody should go over to TimCast, click join us,
01:26:09.000 become a member because membership is what makes the show operate. And without members,
01:26:14.000 we can't do what we do. That being said, you may have noticed in the past week, our members show
01:26:19.000 were laggy, cutting in and out. This is because Hurricane Helene caused serious damage to Rumble.
01:26:24.000 They are in the area. And this means they need our support more than ever. So we're going to keep
01:26:30.000 doing our best to maintain our members only show, which will be coming up at 10pm. Please
01:26:34.000 join us there. They're a lot of fun. They're uncensored, not so family friendly, but always
01:26:38.000 funny. And this means that we're having issues with the player. Rumble is working as hard as
01:26:44.000 they can to get everything working.
01:26:45.000 Our website, we use Rumble Infrastructure.
01:26:47.000 We use Parallel Economy, which is Rumble and Dan Bongino's payment processor, because we believe in creating businesses and sustaining them to fracture the control of the hegemonic censorship industrial complex.
01:27:00.000 Chris Pavlovsky of Rumble had a really great post where he said, this election is going to be a lot harder than the censor because you've got X, you've got Rumble.
01:27:08.000 And that is true. And you've got parallel economy for payment processing.
01:27:11.000 So please bear with us and with everybody else when this storm is going to cause us delays and disruptions to our show even up here in West Virginia.
01:27:22.000 And so, you know...
01:27:24.000 That being said, everybody is getting hit by this, and we just got to deal with it.
01:27:28.000 So I hope you all are willing to do so.
01:27:30.000 One of the positives is the last hurricane did deposit a lot of sand in that area, and they're actually using that sand now to make sandbags, which, you know, you don't have to dig it out of the ocean.
01:27:39.000 It's right there. It's piled up.
01:27:40.000 And it's almost helping clear sand that got deposited, too.
01:27:43.000 Right. Yeah. Like the water-washed sand?
01:27:45.000 Oh, there's sand mounds everywhere.
01:27:47.000 It's like the dunes now.
01:27:48.000 There's parking lots in where hotels used to be, and there's this beautiful white sand, that white crystal sand that's all over.
01:27:55.000 It all gets carried by the water, but then the water leaves.
01:27:58.000 And then it leaves, and the sand's still there.
01:27:59.000 I saw the mud, which is crazy, because I don't think people realize.
01:28:04.000 The water washes in, and it's full of mud.
01:28:07.000 When the water starts going down, the dirt stays.
01:28:10.000 The water evaporates or drains, and then you get two feet of mud.
01:28:14.000 Which is absolutely insane.
01:28:16.000 Got to clean it up. Yep.
01:28:18.000 It's got to be a field day for roofers in Florida.
01:28:21.000 Yeah. Roofers and tree cutters.
01:28:23.000 And drywall people. I suppose the question for you guys is, do you think this is going to...
01:28:28.000 You know, with the talk of weather control, the concern is that North Carolina and Georgia,
01:28:33.000 these are Republican strongholds and Trump needs to get, he needs to win these to win
01:28:37.000 these swing states.
01:28:38.000 And now a month after the election, how are they going to run this?
01:28:41.000 But Florida is deep red and Miami is not really going to get, Miami went red last time around.
01:28:45.000 So I kind of feel like even with this damage, Florida is still going to vote Republican.
01:28:49.000 There just might be less votes overall.
01:28:51.000 Because I think some of the, you know, you think of all the electronic voting machines that have been flooded.
01:28:55.000 You know, those things aren't being kept on the top floor.
01:28:57.000 It obscures polling, right?
01:28:59.000 One of the issues in the last couple of weeks is every pollster ever is trying to get their queries in, especially in swing states like North Carolina.
01:29:07.000 But if you can't, you know, in North Carolina specifically, if there's no cell service, you're not answering emails or calls from pollsters.
01:29:15.000 You're not getting anything from half the states.
01:29:16.000 Right. So there's no accurate way to measure counties.
01:29:20.000 I mean, presumably a lot of these counties, from what we know, are already red.
01:29:23.000 But at the same time, like, this means that all of the data going into the election in these area is going to be completely unreliable.
01:29:33.000 Tim, can I make one plea to your listeners out there?
01:29:36.000 Yeah. Because I know you're a big champion of free speech, and we're sitting here talking about these great things.
01:29:43.000 Free speech is alive and well in most of the country, except down in Texas where we have Alex Jones being attacked relentlessly by different entities that want to shut him up.
01:29:56.000 And people can help out.
01:29:57.000 I just want to put this out one more time to realalexjones.com.
01:30:01.000 That's where we have a ginsive gives and go to help fund what's going on because they want to take away his name.
01:30:08.000 They want to take away his...
01:30:09.000 They filed to take away his real Alex Jones...
01:30:12.000 X channel. They can't do that.
01:30:14.000 But they want to. Elon owns it.
01:30:16.000 But if he doesn't fight these things, then the judge could say, well, you could take it.
01:30:19.000 And then Elon could say, well, no one gets to use it.
01:30:22.000 No, Elon could say, Alex gets to use it.
01:30:24.000 Bye. He could. And we'll get to that battle.
01:30:27.000 They also want to say he can't use the name The Alex Jones Show.
01:30:30.000 Well, that's his name. And they're saying, well, no, we don't like that.
01:30:33.000 They want to put a receiver over him.
01:30:34.000 They've got these constant little...
01:30:35.000 Now that they've... We're taking away things when they're going to auction everything off.
01:30:42.000 They've taken that away. So now they want to go after anything residual where he can't rebuild.
01:30:47.000 So really the two things left are he's literally selling t-shirts to fund the next chapter at thealexjonesstore.com and then asking people to help fund his legal defense.
01:30:58.000 And people just give five, ten bucks.
01:30:59.000 100,000 people do it.
01:31:01.000 It really changes everything, especially for him, and allows him to fight these battles.
01:31:05.000 We've got appeals. We've got all kinds of stuff going on.
01:31:07.000 And that's where the real fight is, I think, for the First Amendment, is showing these people that they can't dename somebody and just take away everything for something they said.
01:31:18.000 Boeing killed 100 people, 300 people.
01:31:22.000 With some plane crashes, they paid $300 million in fines.
01:31:25.000 No one tried to take away their brand.
01:31:26.000 I mean, they're really trying to un-person Alex Jones.
01:31:28.000 They really are. As if they could erase him from time, space, and the history books.
01:31:33.000 How did you get involved with InfoWars and Alex Jones?
01:31:36.000 I answered a Craigslist ad.
01:31:38.000 That's funny. Literally. You're, I think, the third Infowars guy I've heard say that.
01:31:42.000 Well, that's where we used to always put ads out on Craigslist.
01:31:45.000 But I answered an ad, and they called me up.
01:31:48.000 And when I got there, the guy called me on the phone, who's not there anymore.
01:31:52.000 But he said, this is working for Alex Jones.
01:31:55.000 I said, oh, cool. I kind of thought it was.
01:31:58.000 He didn't say it in the post. That's the first screener.
01:31:59.000 That was the first screener. And so I show up, and Alex is interviewing a guy who's showing you not to get busted.
01:32:05.000 He's a former sheriff's deputy. He's called Never Get Busted.
01:32:08.000 And I go in there and I'm showing all the DVDs and stuff that I made and produced.
01:32:11.000 And I produced a whole DVD series for the city of South Padre Island.
01:32:17.000 And he's looking at them all.
01:32:18.000 He's like, this is the kind of thinking we need here.
01:32:20.000 And he walks out. This is during a break and he's eating brisket while he's doing it.
01:32:23.000 And he walks out and the guy goes, I guess you got the job.
01:32:27.000 That's pretty much how it happened.
01:32:29.000 And I got there. I didn't know what I was supposed to do.
01:32:32.000 I knew I was going to be a producer.
01:32:35.000 So I started answering the phone.
01:32:37.000 And after about three days of that, Alex goes, don't answer the phone.
01:32:40.000 Because we were getting all kinds of crazy calls.
01:32:41.000 People call in. And it's like, hello?
01:32:43.000 And it's like some long rabbit trail.
01:32:47.000 and you're like, oh my God.
01:32:48.000 But then it got to going and taping.
01:32:50.000 And Tim, you're gonna come into this story here in a second.
01:32:53.000 We go in and taping long form interviews.
01:32:55.000 We go interview John Perkins.
01:32:56.000 We go interview Tim Ball, who was a climatologist.
01:32:59.000 We'd do these long three hour interviews, Rosalind Peterson on chemtrails out in California.
01:33:05.000 And then we'd make these documentaries and we'd use like 10 minutes of their stuff.
01:33:09.000 And then in 2011, when Ferguson happened, the paradigm had changed from shooting long form videos
01:33:16.000 putting them out on YouTube to going live.
01:33:19.000 And I think that's when we discovered—he was already a name—but we discovered this guy running around with a beanie on, and we're like, who's this guy?
01:33:27.000 We've got to interview him.
01:33:28.000 Go interview him and see what he's talking about, because I think you might have been working for Vice at the time.
01:33:32.000 Not if I was live streaming on the ground.
01:33:33.000 It's probably either before or after.
01:33:35.000 Okay. Well, one of our guys got stuck in two.
01:33:38.000 They were getting tear gassed at Ferguson.
01:33:40.000 But you were at Ferguson, right? You were there.
01:33:41.000 Oh, okay. Yeah, Ferguson was Vice.
01:33:43.000 Vice and Fusion. But that was when live streaming became big.
01:33:47.000 We had the tools to go for at least an hour at a time.
01:33:50.000 It wasn't really good on phones, but it was not bad.
01:33:52.000 But you could buy these units and hook up a camera and get some pretty good stuff and get lots of views.
01:33:56.000 We just saw the view counts go crazy on all these different platforms.
01:33:59.000 Nobody does it anymore. They don't.
01:34:01.000 That's weird, right? Well, it's because, you know, put it on Twitter and you get it, you know, different.
01:34:05.000 It's just the way things change.
01:34:06.000 But that's the way the news business changes.
01:34:07.000 If you were on the ground at any one of these protests with a phone live streaming, you'd be getting millions upon millions of views.
01:34:17.000 You'd gain 100,000 subscribers overnight.
01:34:19.000 I don't think any of that has changed.
01:34:21.000 The reason I stopped doing it is because people started just jumping in front of the camera to scream because they knew it had a million viewers or whatever.
01:34:28.000 Effer in the pee. Right.
01:34:30.000 Or just one guy was screaming, it's Tim, it's Tim.
01:34:32.000 And he would just stand in front of me and be like, look at me, look at me.
01:34:34.000 And I'm like, I can't do this.
01:34:35.000 You can't get anything done. Yeah. Yeah.
01:34:37.000 But no one else streams anymore.
01:34:39.000 It's weird. It's weird because that's how a lot of people made themselves.
01:34:43.000 We definitely went into another arena of popularity by doing that.
01:34:48.000 It's interesting, too. I think mobile live streaming is over.
01:34:50.000 I tried to do a live stream when the second Trump assassination plot broke.
01:34:54.000 And YouTube only allowed me to go vertical.
01:34:56.000 Right. And I'm like, ain't no way I'm walking on a vertical live stream.
01:34:59.000 And so I tried to hold it sideways so you can see that there's no chat.
01:35:03.000 And I was like, there's no chat, and it's just this grainy, low-res, vertical stream?
01:35:08.000 I'm like, we've gone backwards here, man.
01:35:09.000 Well, and that could be to control the paradigm, or the narrative.
01:35:13.000 When Facebook first started offering live streams, that was early on.
01:35:17.000 Facebook mentions, I think is what it was called.
01:35:19.000 We would put Alex on.
01:35:21.000 And we'd sit there and watch.
01:35:22.000 He's just walking downtown, going to Google, confronting Google.
01:35:25.000 We'd see a million viewers watching.
01:35:27.000 And I think at the time we were seeing real numbers because there was no governor.
01:35:30.000 There was nothing. It was just like, we're going to give you...
01:35:32.000 Because it was right early on when they were starting it.
01:35:34.000 They wanted to give it to Alex Jones.
01:35:35.000 We had a back channel to Facebook.
01:35:37.000 They're like, here you go. Boom. And this is before all the censorship.
01:35:39.000 And we're watching this 1.3 million viewers.
01:35:42.000 And we're like, whoa, this is crazy.
01:35:44.000 Like you're just thinking about the number of people who are like on their phones watching whatever's going on.
01:35:49.000 And that one, it just goes, that's powerful.
01:35:52.000 That's power. And they can't let that out there.
01:35:54.000 They can't let somebody like yourself to go out there and film an event and go, here's what's really going on.
01:35:59.000 I mean, I think it's cultural.
01:36:01.000 I think the culture of it died.
01:36:03.000 People don't want to go on the ground and do live streams.
01:36:07.000 Yeah, it is work. It's hard to monetize.
01:36:09.000 It's a dirty business.
01:36:11.000 You know, you get shot at, you get tear gassed, you get, you know, there's all kinds of stuff that could happen to you.
01:36:15.000 Alright, we're gonna go to Super Chat, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with everyone you know, because it's the best show on the internet.
01:36:25.000 Everyone agrees, at least that's what I've been told.
01:36:26.000 And become a member at TimCast.com.
01:36:29.000 That members-only show is coming up in about 20 minutes.
01:36:31.000 And of course, leave us a good rating if you're listening on the audio podcasts or if you're just in general.
01:36:36.000 Everyone go to Apple Podcasts or whatever in just five stars.
01:36:40.000 We would really appreciate it.
01:36:41.000 It does help. T-Bomb says the TimCast members-only 7 Days to Die server has been upgraded bigly.
01:36:47.000 Come survive with us in a post-Kamala USA. Tim, we have your beanie.
01:36:52.000 Well, I'd like it back, but it's okay.
01:36:54.000 Scooby Dragon says, howdy people, howdy.
01:36:58.000 Councilman Robert Suppenblock says, Kamala reminds me of the Sky Marshal in Starship Troopers that takes over and immediately throws her former boss under the bus.
01:37:09.000 Yeah, I kind of don't think Kamala wants to be president.
01:37:12.000 I think they told her.
01:37:13.000 I think they put her there.
01:37:15.000 You know, Biden's like, we're getting rid of him and you're going to run.
01:37:18.000 And she's like, oh, why would they get rid of Biden?
01:37:20.000 If they really couldn't win a down ticket, he was going to cost them a bunch of seats.
01:37:23.000 Oh, downtown. And then they're like, we have no time to get anybody.
01:37:26.000 And the war chest can only be transferred reasonably to Kamala, despite the fact legally, I don't think it can.
01:37:31.000 But they have no argument to put all that money in any other candidate if they swap him out.
01:37:35.000 I went to the campaign office, the Harry Balls campaign office in Ranson, completely empty.
01:37:41.000 I mean, it's filled with stuff, but it doesn't look like anybody's done anything.
01:37:44.000 Wait, wait. In Ranson, there's a...
01:37:46.000 Yeah, there's a little campaign office.
01:37:47.000 For Harris? Yeah. Really?
01:37:49.000 Right downtown. I walked in.
01:37:50.000 I'm looking around. Hello?
01:37:52.000 Anybody there? I took two pictures of it.
01:37:53.000 I took a picture of the front, and then I walked in.
01:37:55.000 And no one was there? No one was there.
01:37:56.000 The door was open. The door was wide open.
01:37:58.000 It said, come on in. And there's stacks of stuff on the tables.
01:38:02.000 I mean, maybe they're just in the bathroom.
01:38:04.000 They could have been. I mean, I said hello.
01:38:06.000 Yeah, all one for real. I doubt they're going to spend a lot of money in West Virginia.
01:38:09.000 But this is important because it opens up legal standing for West Virginia residents for anything Kamala Harris as a campaign does.
01:38:16.000 So when they go after Trump or other nonprofits from various states for operating in their state or whatever, if there's questions about any actions they're doing in terms of financing or otherwise...
01:38:27.000 If their campaign is operating in West Virginia, and of course they're going to operate in every state.
01:38:31.000 And they could just say that. Yeah, here we are.
01:38:33.000 Boom. Well, now it's like, look, they're operating here.
01:38:36.000 This is what they're fundraising off of.
01:38:37.000 This is what they're saying. Citizens of West Virginia, residents of West Virginia have legal standing.
01:38:43.000 All right, let's grab some more.
01:38:45.000 Shane H. Wilder says, prayers to everyone in the path of Hurricane Milton.
01:38:48.000 To anyone watching, if you can help, please help, even if it's just prayers.
01:38:52.000 Indeed. There's the inside of it.
01:38:56.000 Oh, that looks nice. I mean, was there coffee?
01:38:59.000 You know, I didn't see any coffee.
01:39:00.000 I want to go check it out. Vincent Latore says, That's weird.
01:39:15.000 Yeah, we went. We hung out with Jack Posobiec.
01:39:17.000 It was great. He was doing the War Room Podcast live for all of the people.
01:39:21.000 And the line—this is crazy because we got there at 9 a.m.
01:39:24.000 And the line went on forever.
01:39:26.000 Oh, yeah. Three hours later, the line was still there.
01:39:29.000 And I think it went on for several more hours because you can see the aerial photos.
01:39:33.000 And it was really great.
01:39:34.000 Got to meet a lot of really cool people.
01:39:35.000 Took a lot of pictures with everybody. Yeah.
01:39:37.000 Did a really great couple of interviews.
01:39:40.000 Did an interview with Midas Touch.
01:39:42.000 I would be very surprised if they upload it raw and it's full.
01:39:45.000 But I would not be surprised if they edit it and selectively put up things that I said because that's usually what people do.
01:39:50.000 That's what they do. The crowd in Pennsylvania was really interesting.
01:39:55.000 I mean, there was a constant stream all day long.
01:39:58.000 I think I got there maybe around 1 and stood in line for maybe 40 minutes to get in.
01:40:04.000 And then it just never stopped.
01:40:06.000 I mean, if you were like...
01:40:09.000 Because I like to walk around. You would walk kind of up to where the screens are as close as you get and walk away.
01:40:14.000 And it got harder and harder.
01:40:15.000 You had to stop moving because it just became this huge mass of people.
01:40:20.000 And it reminded me of...
01:40:22.000 I watched this miniseries a long time ago on Jerry Garcia and, like, the Deadhead movement.
01:40:27.000 And, you know, I'd be talking to people in the crowd and they'd be like, oh, yeah, this is, like, my fifth or sixth Trump rally.
01:40:32.000 Like, they really do have that, like...
01:40:34.000 They follow it around, yeah. They follow it around.
01:40:35.000 It was fascinating. It's a cultural movement.
01:40:37.000 And almost, I mean, I can't tell you how many people were like, well, I was here on July 13th, so I came back and I asked them, like, were you nervous?
01:40:44.000 Like, did you feel anything about it? And they were like, no, why?
01:40:46.000 Was anybody on the roof? There were so many people on the roof.
01:40:50.000 All of the budget went to the snipers.
01:40:52.000 Of course. And it was amazing.
01:40:54.000 The one thing that someone in the crowd pointed out to me was like, I don't see it being on the water tower.
01:40:58.000 Right. But I almost feel like they're like, we don't want to stir up anything this time.
01:41:02.000 Yeah, six people on the water tower.
01:41:03.000 Yeah, lots of people on the roof, which was fascinating.
01:41:05.000 So I finished high school in Pennsylvania.
01:41:07.000 And in between the RNC and the DNC, the RNC was in...
01:41:12.000 What? Cleveland. And then we went to the DNC in Philly.
01:41:15.000 But we stopped in Pittsburgh on the night before and I went and saw some old friends.
01:41:18.000 And these are all Democrats.
01:41:19.000 Working class Democrats. Every one of them was voting for Trump.
01:41:23.000 Yeah. And right then I'm like, oh, he's going to totally win because the working class people finally woken up.
01:41:29.000 They're like, oh, the Democrats aren't our friend anymore.
01:41:31.000 And they realize that.
01:41:33.000 They're like, we're not voting for Hillary.
01:41:34.000 They're like, we're Trump all the way.
01:41:36.000 And Westmoreland County, which is normally a blue county, it went red for that election.
01:41:42.000 And that was, I think, because these people had just had enough and they've seen it.
01:41:46.000 And I think you're going to see the same thing again.
01:41:48.000 Yeah, I agree. I mean, that's the thing of the story of West Virginia, for the most part.
01:41:51.000 West Virginia at one point was a Democratic stronghold, and people don't realize that now.
01:41:55.000 But it is one of two states that went entirely for Trump in 2020.
01:41:59.000 Oklahoma was the other one. Yeah, and Jefferson County, where Branson is, which you're mentioning, is one of two that came within 50%.
01:42:08.000 So it was like, I think, 54% of the county voted for Trump.
01:42:11.000 That's why they have their headquarters. Right, right, right.
01:42:12.000 They're like, this is the one place we might be able to win.
01:42:15.000 But I think, you know, one of the county commissioners who spoke at the rally said, I am declaring Butler the capital of Trump country.
01:42:23.000 And I do think that sort of rust belt of America feels that.
01:42:26.000 I mean, even though they might have been super blue, we are working people, union members at one point, they know that no matter what Joe Biden says, no matter what Kamala Harris pretends, that party does not represent them any They've seen the results.
01:42:39.000 And it's taken a while.
01:42:40.000 It's taken a few generations. But they're like, you know what?
01:42:42.000 It's not getting any better.
01:42:43.000 We keep putting these people in office.
01:42:45.000 Nothing gets better. But I think it's our responsibility as communities to make our communities better.
01:42:52.000 Yeah, I agree. You know, we got to have more civil defense.
01:42:55.000 So when these things happen, there's a group of people who are ready on standby.
01:42:59.000 And it's not that we're not waiting for the government to show up.
01:43:02.000 People are bootstrapping it up and going, you know, we got to start taking care of ourselves.
01:43:05.000 But I think a lot of that comes with you're not looking for, you know, making it through your next paycheck, you know, just to pay what bills you're going to pay.
01:43:12.000 You know, you have to be comfortable to make that society, which we used to have that type of society.
01:43:16.000 And hopefully we can get back to that and be inclusive for everyone.
01:43:20.000 All right. Zach Matisse says, for the first time, New York might be a toss-up.
01:43:23.000 I've never seen a political ad here in upstate New York.
01:43:26.000 The last two days, we've seen two Trump and one Kamala.
01:43:32.000 I don't know if it's a toss-up. Interesting, though.
01:43:34.000 I think the fact that Harris is advertising is actually more telling than Trump.
01:43:39.000 Oh, yeah. Because that means that they've done internal work that says, well, maybe we do need to shore up our support in New York.
01:43:46.000 We can't just go with Long Island, or not Long Island, but Manhattan.
01:43:50.000 We have to actually do some work.
01:43:52.000 I think that speaks volumes.
01:43:55.000 Go ahead. No, I totally agree with you.
01:43:56.000 Trump said last year at the New York Young Republicans Gala, we're going to win New York.
01:44:00.000 And it's one of those things where it's like, of course you want to win New York, you lifelong New Yorker.
01:44:04.000 Like, okay, fine. But I think Democrats, like you're saying, would only spend money there this close to the election if they felt like there was something to be anxious about.
01:44:14.000 And maybe it's the down ticket races.
01:44:17.000 Like, maybe they want to have this presence there for that reason.
01:44:20.000 Yeah. Yeah.
01:44:26.000 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
01:44:28.000 Yeah. Heron Gaming News says, you'd think Kamala would at least pretend to care.
01:44:44.000 We should do a donation drive for the victims of the hurricane.
01:44:46.000 Can you please donate my $10 for relief efforts?
01:44:49.000 Perhaps donate unneeded clothes, too.
01:44:51.000 We'll take a look. I had a friend drive down baby clothes.
01:44:54.000 He had all his baby clothes.
01:44:55.000 He drove them down there. He saw bodies in the water.
01:44:58.000 He was in a boat wading with waders.
01:45:02.000 It's crazy down there.
01:45:03.000 We here at TimCast would like to provide assistance.
01:45:07.000 So long as it doesn't interfere with any ongoing emergency efforts.
01:45:11.000 Right. I didn't know you were in the White House.
01:45:26.000 That's crazy. Trucks of water.
01:45:28.000 Speeches for Kamala. There's trucks of water showing up and they're like, no, we don't want your water.
01:45:31.000 That happened in Katrina. There were trucks of water showing up and they're like, no, you're not from our approved vendor.
01:45:36.000 People are like, what? What is this?
01:45:39.000 Like our contracts are very important to us.
01:45:41.000 Jacob Bawley says, remember, remember the 5th of November, the gunpowder treason and plot?
01:45:45.000 I see no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.
01:45:49.000 This election will be crazy. Get prepared.
01:45:51.000 And Stockboys, Phil, now that you're back, run for government again?
01:45:55.000 I am not running for any position.
01:45:57.000 Again? Did you run before?
01:45:59.000 I have never done anything like that, and I'm offended at the implication.
01:46:03.000 What would you run for?
01:46:05.000 What? What would you run for?
01:46:06.000 The Hills. Is that a political party?
01:46:11.000 I tease Allison all the time by mentioning a future presidential run, and then her face just gets wiped clean whenever I say it.
01:46:19.000 And then we were driving back from the rally, and I was saying something like...
01:46:25.000 You know, so we're setting up a studio in D.C. so that we can...
01:46:29.000 There's a lot of members of Congress who ask to come on the show all the time.
01:46:32.000 Right. But they're like, I know it's only an hour and a half drive, but it's an hour and a half round trip and we can't.
01:46:37.000 So we found a really great location for a studio that's very close to the Capitol.
01:46:42.000 And then I was like, yeah, we'll do that for a couple of years.
01:46:43.000 And then when I run, she goes, I knew it.
01:46:46.000 I was like, I'm kidding. I will never run for office.
01:46:49.000 You know, they got to look under the beanie if that happens.
01:46:51.000 Yeah. If I run for office.
01:46:53.000 If you run for office. I don't want to go anywhere near government.
01:46:55.000 Government is horrible. I would say terrible things on Maine just to prevent my...
01:47:00.000 But to sound more aggressive and strong, I'll just use the Lex Luthor line instead.
01:47:10.000 Do you have any idea how much power I would have to give up to become president?
01:47:14.000 No. That's the real reason I don't want to do it.
01:47:16.000 No, I'm kidding. I wouldn't want to do anything in government.
01:47:19.000 Lord help me. But that seems terrible.
01:47:21.000 But then that's why a lot of people don't go into government because they're successful and they're like, why should I give up this life to go be...
01:47:27.000 That's what Trump said during his speech at the rally.
01:47:29.000 He was like, I could be in Monte Carlo, but instead I am here.
01:47:32.000 I would rather be in Butler.
01:47:34.000 I'm here with you people. You people.
01:47:37.000 He's like, I have so many beautiful properties.
01:47:40.000 Yeah. All right, Val says, Brimcast, great.
01:47:43.000 Welcome, Tim. Will election reveal which undercurrent is stronger?
01:47:46.000 Western Republican nationalism versus socialist global communism?
01:47:50.000 Is the fight actually independent voters versus voting shenanigans subverting the vote of said independents?
01:47:55.000 Twill be interesting. Twill.
01:47:58.000 I think it's voting shenanigans.
01:48:00.000 Yeah. I'm voting for voting shenanigans.
01:48:02.000 Yeah, I was just saying thank you guys for tuning in on Friday for Brimcast.
01:48:05.000 I was happy to do it, but I know you guys loved him and I'm glad he's back.
01:48:09.000 Oh yeah, it was a heck of a drive in Cybertruck.
01:48:12.000 It was fun though. Guys, Breezewood, PA is the greatest city in the country.
01:48:17.000 Have you ever been there? No. There's only one reason why it is.
01:48:20.000 There's a casino? No, there's an original full standing Pizza Hut.
01:48:25.000 With salad bar and everything.
01:48:27.000 That was the square or the rectangle?
01:48:29.000 Is it like the last one in the country?
01:48:31.000 No, there's a bunch.
01:48:32.000 But it's great because Breezewood's like a trucker junction.
01:48:35.000 This is a bunch of gas stations and truck stops.
01:48:37.000 And we parked. We hooked up the Cybertruck and said, let's just get some juice here.
01:48:43.000 And what should we do?
01:48:44.000 And I was like, that's a Pizza Hut.
01:48:46.000 And we went in and Allison got a pineapple thin crust.
01:48:50.000 Because she likes pineapple.
01:48:51.000 And I got wings! And they were delicious.
01:48:55.000 Pizza was the first outlet to do the barbecue pizza.
01:48:58.000 Really? Yeah, they were the first ones.
01:48:59.000 I remember in the maybe late 80s, they had the little barbecue pizza you could get.
01:49:04.000 It was amazing. Yeah.
01:49:06.000 Back in the day. And they had the salad bar and the pizza buffet, but it was closed because it was like super late at night.
01:49:10.000 I think it was like 10 o'clock or whatever when we got there, and they were open.
01:49:13.000 Open until 11. That's cool.
01:49:15.000 And I was like, I haven't sat down at a Pizza Hut restaurant in so long, and their ingredients are garbage, but it brought back memories.
01:49:21.000 Yeah. I mean, it's horrible for you, but as a once in a great while thing, it's fine.
01:49:26.000 But I just had the wings and scraped some of the cheese off because I'm not doing any...
01:49:31.000 I mean, it's not bad.
01:49:34.000 You know, fresh chicken from, you know, Chicken City brand chicken is much better.
01:49:39.000 But, you know, I like chicken.
01:49:40.000 I was thinking about this recently because when you order wings, you get 12, right?
01:49:44.000 Which is basically two arms and two legs each.
01:49:46.000 So that's six birds dead.
01:49:49.000 Six breasts that are somewhere.
01:49:51.000 Yeah, someone's eaten those.
01:49:52.000 But I'm just like, I wonder how many chickens I've killed this week.
01:49:55.000 And so, I gotta be honest, last week the only thing I ate was wings.
01:49:59.000 Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday was just wings.
01:50:02.000 Was Friday? Yep, just wings.
01:50:03.000 And so it's about 12 wings per order.
01:50:06.000 So that's 30 chickens that died to feed me.
01:50:09.000 Granted, the chicken breasts, I don't know who ate those.
01:50:13.000 So I didn't eat the whole chicken.
01:50:14.000 But that's a lot of chicken wings.
01:50:16.000 Killing a lot of birds So, I take the leaf blower and I blow all the dust out of the park.
01:50:43.000 It's a big building. And then the other day, there's under...
01:50:46.000 One of the ramps sticks out a little bit.
01:50:48.000 It's called the love seat. And it's, I don't know, what is it?
01:50:51.000 12 feet wide.
01:50:53.000 I put the blower under the sheet metal and 20 crickets came flying out.
01:50:57.000 Yeah. They're everywhere, screaming up a storm, running around, living underneath the ramps.
01:51:02.000 And so I've got a solution.
01:51:03.000 We're going to get a couple chickens and let them go.
01:51:05.000 Just to run around the place, just chasing down the crickets.
01:51:08.000 Put a skateboard helmet on. Smorgasbord.
01:51:11.000 And the chickens will probably poop, but it's okay.
01:51:12.000 We can clean the poop up if they get rid of all the crickets.
01:51:15.000 They'll clean up the crickets pretty quickly.
01:51:16.000 Here's the best part. They'll lay eggs from the crickets that we will eat.
01:51:20.000 So we're basically turning the crickets into food.
01:51:23.000 We will not eat the crickets.
01:51:24.000 We will not eat the bugs. We will eat the eggs that the chickens give us.
01:51:27.000 Perfect. That's why I believe in the 20th Amendment.
01:51:30.000 The right to keep barren breed chickens shall not be infringed.
01:51:33.000 And Arizona recently passed this law at the state level.
01:51:35.000 No one can ban you from backyard chickens.
01:51:37.000 Because Arizona, that was based.
01:51:40.000 Alright, we'll grab some more Super Chats here.
01:51:43.000 What have we? Andrew, you says, just saw a billboard in the Cincinnati area saying to report hate crimes to the FBI with an associated phone number.
01:51:50.000 Thought crimes have become a reality nationwide.
01:51:54.000 Heavens. You know something about thought crimes, am I right?
01:51:57.000 I do. And also, I'm going to give you guys a little secret when we go to the, what do you call it, the executive session?
01:52:04.000 Members only. Members only.
01:52:06.000 Executive session. That's what they call it in Congress when they're going to talk about stuff that they don't want you to hear.
01:52:11.000 They call it the executive session.
01:52:13.000 But I'm going to teach people.
01:52:15.000 I will tell them how I do not go through the body scanners at the airport.
01:52:19.000 Full proof way. Yeah, they pat you down.
01:52:21.000 No. Well, no, I don't even get pat down.
01:52:23.000 How do you do it? Oh, I'm going to show you then.
01:52:26.000 All right. We'll do it then.
01:52:27.000 All right. Stay tuned. I have a foolproof way as well.
01:52:31.000 It's called TSA Pre.
01:52:32.000 Oh, yeah. Walk right in.
01:52:34.000 All right. Armor says, this is for Phil.
01:52:36.000 I had VIP tickets for y'all at Richmond.
01:52:38.000 I know it was an issue with the venue, but what happened?
01:52:41.000 Uh... I can't say.
01:52:43.000 It was the safety issue, and it was the venue, and that's all I'm allowed to say, because All That Remains was a support act.
01:52:51.000 That's an issue with Live Nation, with the venue, and with Megadeth.
01:52:55.000 Actually, with the venue and Live Nation, it has nothing to do with All That Remains and stuff.
01:52:58.000 I bet Diddy was there. We gotta go!
01:53:01.000 We're shutting it down! Everybody's just running.
01:53:04.000 Yeah, but I can't talk about it because there are legalities surrounding it, so nobody did anything wrong or anything.
01:53:11.000 It was a safety issue, but it was something that had to be done, so I apologize.
01:53:18.000 Before a show, we were interviewing Megadeth backstage.
01:53:21.000 It was like 2011 in Dallas, and We're sitting there.
01:53:26.000 He goes, y'all just come hang out.
01:53:27.000 We're going to rehearse the show.
01:53:29.000 And they literally sat in a circle playing with no amps or anything.
01:53:33.000 The drummer's beating on his arm.
01:53:34.000 They do the whole show. Front to back.
01:53:36.000 And then they go out and just nail it.
01:53:38.000 And it's amazing. Do you do that when you...
01:53:40.000 We don't do that. We have done that with, like, if we're debuting a new song or whatever, like, everyone will go through this stuff.
01:53:47.000 And it's, I mean, it's fairly normal, you know, like, Megadeth sets up a jam room every day.
01:53:52.000 So they have, like, an electronic kit and everyone's got small amps.
01:53:56.000 And so, like, if they want to work on stuff, they'll go in there and work on stuff.
01:53:59.000 But, I mean, because they're headlining, at Soundcheck, they just go out onto the stage and do it.
01:54:04.000 Yeah. And just, you know, do it full volume.
01:54:06.000 And they lock the place down.
01:54:08.000 They're like, no one can come in to watch.
01:54:09.000 Like, even the other bands, we're not allowed to go watch.
01:54:11.000 I mean, you can still hear it because you're in the venue, but...
01:54:14.000 Do you have a pre-show ritual, though?
01:54:16.000 I do have a warm-up that I do, and I kind of do a little get the heartbeat going and do some push-ups and stuff like that and kind of jump around a little bit, you know?
01:54:27.000 It's funny. He doesn't do it before IRL. That's why I'm asking.
01:54:30.000 He treats this very differently than his rock star job.
01:54:32.000 This is very different. I'm not expected to jump around.
01:54:34.000 I don't have to yell as much. You have to get your heartbeat off.
01:54:36.000 That's right. Let's grab a couple more Super Chats.
01:54:40.000 No Name says, I grew up in Dayton, Ohio in the late 70s.
01:54:44.000 Wright-Patterson seeded snowstorms that dumped feet of snow two years in a row.
01:54:49.000 Did they now? Hmm.
01:54:52.000 Alex Stein is convinced that the earth is flat too, right?
01:54:55.000 That was a whole thing we had to go through.
01:54:56.000 I thought it was sort of donut shaped.
01:54:58.000 Is that not what it was? No, the donut earth theory is that it is hollow and flat, meaning it is a donut.
01:55:04.000 But earth is not a donut because you'd be able to see the other side from the inside of the donut, you know what I mean?
01:55:08.000 But these flat earthers are wild, man.
01:55:12.000 Is he going to go to Antarctica?
01:55:14.000 You know, he talks big game about the earth being flat, and then I'm like, I'll pay.
01:55:17.000 And I did a poll to the audience, and I said, should we spend $35,000, I mean, that's crazy, right, to send Alex Stein to Antarctica?
01:55:28.000 And it was like 95% yes.
01:55:30.000 And I'm like, hey, look, the people who watch the show and become members at TimCast.com are who pay the bills.
01:55:35.000 And if they say Alex Stein goes to Antarctica, well then, God willing, we will send that man to Antarctica.
01:55:42.000 But the only problem is, he's scared.
01:55:44.000 Well, if he's got a Starlink, too, he could stream the whole thing.
01:55:46.000 That's right. And we got Starlink.
01:55:48.000 We could send him with one. And come on.
01:55:52.000 What's wrong? Come on, Alex.
01:55:54.000 He's not going to do it. He won't do it.
01:55:55.000 I mean, look, he should.
01:55:57.000 It's a long trip, and you're covering the cost.
01:56:00.000 Wasn't it his idea to go?
01:56:01.000 He can make content, too.
01:56:03.000 I don't think he expected me to say yes.
01:56:08.000 He's thinking, like, it's $35,000.
01:56:10.000 No one's going to pay for that.
01:56:11.000 I was like, I'll do it. It's cool. And he's like, ah, well, you know.
01:56:13.000 But look, look. If it were up to me, I think there's better things we can do with that much money.
01:56:21.000 I mean, we could...
01:56:23.000 I don't know, hire someone to help make clips or something, or maybe do some promos, buy some billboards.
01:56:30.000 But the audience said 95% they want to see Alex Stein.
01:56:34.000 And that's what it's all about, right?
01:56:35.000 Get you a thick jacket, Alex Stein.
01:56:38.000 If he goes in December, it's actually warm.
01:56:40.000 Oh, yeah. Yeah, so it can get as high as 60 degrees.
01:56:43.000 What? There you go. Yeah, mid-60s.
01:56:45.000 You need a light jacket. That's right.
01:56:46.000 Jump around a little bit, get your sweat up.
01:56:48.000 And that's why you go in the wintertime here, it's summertime down there, so it's day all day.
01:56:54.000 It's sunny all day.
01:56:55.000 And not as cold.
01:56:58.000 So what's the problem?
01:57:00.000 Get that snowmobile, lots of fuel, go.
01:57:01.000 The problem is it's not very interesting to haze penguins.
01:57:07.000 but he didn't want to listen to and why the Flat Earth stuff,
01:57:09.000 why they make these mistakes.
01:57:10.000 And one of them is that there's something called the impossible day or whatever.
01:57:15.000 There's one day, July 8th or something, where 99% of the world is experiencing
01:57:20.000 sunlight.
01:57:21.000 And it's because the majority of people between like the Asian continent are in
01:57:26.000 daylight.
01:57:27.000 It's because it is day where most people are, not that the planet is more than 50%
01:57:31.000 covered in daylight or whatever.
01:57:33.000 But they misconstrue this and think that it means 90% of the planet is
01:57:37.000 experiencing sunlight instead of 90% of the population.
01:57:41.000 And so it's things like this where then people go off and make these crazy videos and misunderstand what they're talking about.
01:57:45.000 Yeah, I saw a diagram of like a circle around like India and some of Southeast Asia and China.
01:57:52.000 And it's like two-thirds of the Earth's population lives inside that circle or maybe it was a third or something.
01:57:57.000 It's not just that too, but we have daylight when the sun has set.
01:58:01.000 Meaning, you look at the horizon, the sun is gone, and you can still, it's still not night, right?
01:58:06.000 You're at twilight, and the sun is setting.
01:58:09.000 But you'll still see some daylight.
01:58:11.000 So, anyway. Alright, we'll grab a couple more Super Chats while we're here.
01:58:17.000 We've got Peter Gohawk says, we need to send Ian to Florida to stop the hurricane.
01:58:21.000 Awesome show. Keep up the good work.
01:58:22.000 Crazy world right now. Yeah, Ian also is convinced he can control the weather, yet he never wants to whenever you need him to.
01:58:27.000 Right! I asked him this the other week.
01:58:29.000 I was like, this is before Helene.
01:58:31.000 If you can control the weather, why not, buddy?
01:58:33.000 And he was like, the people can do it themselves.
01:58:35.000 Oh my god, what a cop-out!
01:58:38.000 What if Ian just shows up drenched in sweat like, it's my fault!
01:58:41.000 I made Milton!
01:58:43.000 And then he actually filmed himself meditating in Florida, calling for a hurricane.
01:58:48.000 He'd be like, get out of here, you drama queen.
01:58:50.000 Is it Oregon? I'm not making this about you.
01:58:52.000 How does he do it? He closes his eyes and he sends his vibrations out into the atmosphere to harp or something.
01:59:02.000 He lies. He lies. That's what he does.
01:59:04.000 He lies. He genuinely believes.
01:59:07.000 It's crazy. I texted Luke and he was like, no, for real.
01:59:10.000 He made the clouds go away.
01:59:11.000 I was like, no, the clouds weren't going away and then Ian made a weird noise.
01:59:15.000 I'm sorry. I wish it were real.
01:59:19.000 Use your powers for good, Ian.
01:59:22.000 Thomas Durante says, Hi Tim and all, I'm watching 60 Minutes Behind.
01:59:25.000 Please read this. I'm in Bradenton, right in the path of Milton.
01:59:28.000 Send us good thoughts. I grew up here, and this is the first to head right at me.
01:59:34.000 Heavens! Well, I don't know, man.
01:59:37.000 I think people should get out if they're saying get out.
01:59:40.000 That's what I've always heard, that this area doesn't really get hit by hurricanes the way that we do.
01:59:45.000 It usually travels up, yeah. And so you must be – I mean I assumed as someone who is not from Florida that all of Florida is semi – is more prepared than most states for a hurricane.
01:59:55.000 But especially if emergency resources have already been deployed to the other side that was just hit, I can't imagine what's going on there now.
02:00:03.000 We got one last Super Chat.
02:00:04.000 This is a big one. Dark Sea says, Tim, have you seen the story earlier today that an unmarked helicopter did a low fly pass in Burnsville, North Carolina, destroyed supplies given to survivors?
02:00:14.000 I saw those videos.
02:00:15.000 There's a bunch of them. You see these? I got some intel on it, actually.
02:00:18.000 Do you know what the helicopter is?
02:00:19.000 Well, apparently it was the National Guard of that state.
02:00:23.000 It was North Carolina or Tennessee?
02:00:24.000 I think it was North Carolina. North Carolina. North Carolina.
02:00:26.000 And they were trying to land.
02:00:28.000 That's what I talked to a buddy.
02:00:30.000 And when they stop, they can't really just take off again.
02:00:34.000 It's not like being anti-gravity.
02:00:36.000 Increases the pressure. So they do that.
02:00:37.000 And so maybe it did look bad.
02:00:41.000 Because I looked at the video, I'm like, those guys are a-holes.
02:00:44.000 But I made some calls.
02:00:46.000 Head lens razor. Some people were like, you know, I think they were National Guard.
02:00:51.000 They were trying to stop and make a water drop.
02:00:53.000 They couldn't. But they can't move that fast.
02:00:56.000 It's a big Black Hawk helicopter.
02:00:58.000 All right, everybody. If you haven't already...
02:01:00.000 The Starlink survived, though. The Starlink survived.

02:01:31.000 Well, I would just like to encourage people to, you know, support Alex Jones because he's done a lot for the First Amendment.
02:01:36.000 He's done a lot for this country, and he's been doing it for a long time.
02:01:38.000 And I think he wants to stay in the game for at least another 10, 15 years.
02:01:41.000 So, you know, let's keep him in the game.

02:01:51.000 And I don't even know if you know this, I do a political puppet show with my kids.
02:01:55.000 I don't know if you've seen it or not.
02:01:57.000 That's the other thing I do.
02:01:58.000 Other than working away at Infowars for the last 15 years.
02:02:03.000 Where can people find the puppet show?
02:02:05.000 You can find it on YouTube. It's called Grunyons.

02:02:31.000 I did go to the Trump rally in Butler.
