Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Leftist DEATH THREATS Force America250 CANCELATIONS | Timcast IRL

00:01:12.000 So far, five out of nine artists who are set to perform for the Freedom 250 Fest have canceled.

00:01:19.000 I'm hearing that it may actually be six at this point, but not sure.

00:01:23.000 We do have five confirmed artists canceling.

00:01:26.000 Now, we don't exactly know why they would agree to do the America 250 Fourth of July Fest and then abruptly cancel right when it was announced that they were going to be performing.

00:01:35.000 They're saying, you know, we thought it was going to be patriotic, but now it's divisive.

00:01:39.000 That is, we didn't know until Bret Michaels came out and said his crew are getting death threats.

00:01:45.000 I think it's pretty obvious what happened.

00:01:47.000 All of these artists who agreed to perform said, This will be great, great opportunity.

00:01:51.000 The moment it was announced they'd be performing, they probably started getting a lot of death threats and just general threats to their businesses and their livelihoods.

00:01:59.000 And so they said, We're out.

00:02:02.000 And they're canceling.

00:02:03.000 Now, it's not just this degree of threats of violence threatening the America 250.

00:02:09.000 We talked quite a bit about the Newark ICE riots and how one of the staffers there deferred federal authority to far left terrorists.

00:02:16.000 And I'm just like, guys, you got to understand what time it is.

00:02:20.000 And what it appears the Trump administration is or is not capable of doing in dealing with the division and the threats of violence, you got to ask yourself what a regular person in this country fears the most.

00:02:31.000 And the truth is, they don't fear a fascist Donald Trump. 0.78

00:02:35.000 They fear leftist terrorists. 0.92

00:02:38.000 And that's why we are seeing cancellations.

00:02:40.000 That's why we are seeing these struggles.

00:02:43.000 Now, we're going to talk about that and a bunch more before we get started, my friends.

00:02:46.000 Go to castbrew.com and buy some delicious and amazing.

00:02:50.000 Cast Brew Coffee.

00:02:51.000 You can, of course, get Ian's Graphene Dream K Cups.

00:02:54.000 You can get Vault Black Cold Brew Concentrate Pool Water by the Bottle.

00:02:58.000 And a bunch of other coffees are available to all of you guys.

00:03:01.000 It's a beautiful Friday.

00:03:02.000 Don't forget to smash that like button, share the show with everyone.

00:03:04.000 You know, we've got some stuff to talk about as to why we're doing the show the way we're doing it right now.

00:03:10.000 And I'll let everybody do a quick intro and then we'll give you an update.

00:03:14.000 But we're being joined tonight by Lisa Reynolds.

00:03:16.000 Hi, guys.

00:03:17.000 Nice to be back.

00:03:18.000 Thanks for having me, Tim.

00:03:19.000 Sorry that I'm your guest.

00:03:21.000 Well, you know, it's your fault.

00:03:22.000 It is my fault.

00:03:24.000 You're responsible for booking, so.

00:03:25.000 I am responsible for booking and I feel.

00:03:27.000 There's actually big news that I think will be interesting to a lot of people and we'll explain it in a second, but we'll get the boys hanging out.

00:03:32.000 Yeah.

00:03:33.000 I'm just excited.

00:03:34.000 I haven't been on a panel with Lisa before.

00:03:36.000 So I'm very thankful.

00:03:38.000 I'm very thankful.

00:03:39.000 Lisa is one of my favorite people on planet Earth.

00:03:41.000 Oh, you guys are made for each other.

00:03:43.000 I felt like you guys have already worked together.

00:03:45.000 It feels like the cross between the two. 0.99

00:03:46.000 It feels like you're a Padawan in some way. 0.90

00:03:48.000 You're like a younger brother or something to me.

00:03:50.000 Yeah.

00:03:50.000 You've seen her work, you've seen him go the distance.

00:03:53.000 And Ian is slowly turning into a cowboy, I guess.

00:03:56.000 You're right.

00:03:56.000 Howdy.

00:03:57.000 I was thinking more like a scarecrow.

00:03:59.000 Ian, you should get a Canadian tuxedo.

00:04:01.000 Canadian tux?

00:04:01.000 You should wear that.

00:04:02.000 I want to go horseback. 0.78

00:04:03.000 You know how Canadian tuxedos, right?

00:04:04.000 I'm going to look it up.

00:04:05.000 I'm down.

00:04:05.000 I'll take you riding.

00:04:06.000 Let's go.

00:04:06.000 100% I'll take you riding.

00:04:07.000 So we're going to get into the news.

00:04:08.000 We want to talk about this America 26.

00:04:09.000 Carter Banks.

00:04:10.000 Oh, yeah.

00:04:11.000 What's up?

00:04:12.000 But I'll just give a quick update and announcement on what happened.

00:04:17.000 Actually, maybe I can just pull up the old tweet here.

00:04:21.000 And so I can just read for you the exact statement.

00:04:25.000 And it is this Canceled.

00:04:29.000 This morning, my lawyers received notice pertaining to Dr. Turtleboy and risk of legal exposure if we host him.

00:04:36.000 The notice is attached.

00:04:37.000 Under advisement of counsel, we will not host him on Timcast IRL and must advise do not follow Dr. Turtleboy on X. Do not read or listen to what he is saying.

00:04:47.000 Do not pursue his website.

00:04:49.000 This is Aiden Kearney.

00:04:51.000 We were informed that he has put out defamatory statements for which he is facing legal action.

00:04:57.000 The letter is available on X.

00:04:59.000 We were threatened that we have a great risk of legal exposure.

00:05:05.000 I spoke with my legal counsel.

00:05:08.000 They said essentially, we cannot have him on the show.

00:05:11.000 Guys, there's a lot of people who are upset saying, Why would you do this?

00:05:14.000 We have lawyers for a reason.

00:05:16.000 And, you know, they said we can't have them on the show because of apparently what is in this letter.

00:05:21.000 You can read the letter for yourself.

00:05:22.000 So I will just stress one more time as I understand it, the things that Aiden Kearney has said are dangerous and should not be heard by anyone.

00:05:32.000 So do not follow him or read what he is saying.

00:05:35.000 And don't make up your mind for yourself on who the bad guys are in the situation.

00:05:39.000 No, You just don't listen to it.

00:05:41.000 It's information you should not hear, it's things you should not hear.

00:05:43.000 Don't listen to it.

00:05:45.000 I will not be involved in whatever this is.

00:05:47.000 So I will just tell you, you know, just don't read, don't follow, don't do any of that stuff.

00:05:51.000 I'm glad I have nothing to do with Aiden Kearney.

00:05:53.000 What?

00:05:54.000 I was just being so blessed.

00:05:55.000 I get correct.

00:05:56.000 I get.

00:05:56.000 You said that in such a.

00:05:58.000 I don't know.

00:05:58.000 I haven't followed his work.

00:06:01.000 I immediately made sure not to check out his website.

00:06:03.000 I certainly made sure not to check his Twitter or read anything.

00:06:05.000 I have zero homelessness.

00:06:07.000 That is the last thing I would do.

00:06:08.000 And I would say for everyone in the audience, please, please, please do not go to his handle and check him out and follow him.

00:06:13.000 Don't do it.

00:06:14.000 No, because he's dangerous.

00:06:15.000 Don't do it.

00:06:16.000 No, You guys are all acting.

00:06:19.000 No, I'm serious.

00:06:20.000 You should not read any of this stuff.

00:06:22.000 Let's talk about the news.

00:06:24.000 We've got this from Variety.

00:06:25.000 Brett Michaels is fifth act to pull out of Freedom 250 in DC, citing threats and safety concerns as Trump backed shows evolved into something divisive.

00:06:36.000 I just want to stress there should be a D to be devolved into something divisive.

00:06:40.000 Correct.

00:06:41.000 As if to imply the evolution, something divisive is like the planned or forward moving or positive thing.

00:06:41.000 Yeah.

00:06:47.000 Yeah.

00:06:48.000 So we have this image posted by the Democrats as they.

00:06:50.000 They'll laugh about it. 0.95

00:06:52.000 Martina McBride canceled. 0.76

00:06:53.000 Young MC canceled.

00:06:54.000 The Commodore's canceled.

00:06:55.000 Brett Michaels canceled.

00:06:56.000 Morris Day in the Time canceled.

00:06:59.000 So far, Vanilla Ice and Flowrider are the only confirmed.

00:07:01.000 I believe they said they would still do it.

00:07:03.000 Millie Vanilli, it's actually only Millie because Vanilli died.

00:07:08.000 It's just one of them, I guess.

00:07:09.000 So there was like two guys a long time ago.

00:07:12.000 And CC Music Factory, we're not sure if they're going to be performing.

00:07:15.000 But I want to stress this the left is sending death threats to these people.

00:07:21.000 And the Democrats are celebrating it.

00:07:23.000 Of course, I have been saying this all week.

00:07:25.000 The Democratic Party is broke.

00:07:27.000 The donors are funding terrorism, and Republicans are funding elections.

00:07:33.000 This is completely in line with what we've been seeing with the riots, with the threats against Erica Kirk.

00:07:38.000 I gotta say, it looks like coming into these midterms, we are not going to see guys in suits handing out flyers because they're not funding it. 0.97

00:07:46.000 We are going to see people with kefias throwing Molotov cocktails. 1.00

00:07:50.000 This is exactly what's been happening for the past several years. 1.00

00:07:53.000 Fears are legitimate.

00:07:55.000 Look how many, like every other day, there's another assassination attempt or somebody shooting at the White House, right?

00:08:00.000 Like it's not like they don't think that these people will follow through on their death threats because that's what's been happening.

00:08:06.000 Well, and there's kind of something interesting happening here in regards to this cancellation.

00:08:10.000 It's like just one year ago, Martina McBride would have been proud to perform something like this.

00:08:14.000 Jackson Dart would have been not controversial at all if he chose to, you know, speak at a Trump rally.

00:08:19.000 But a year later, again, things have changed.

00:08:21.000 You know, everyone, you know, preemptively declared woke is dead and, you know, this is a new era and everything.

00:08:27.000 But One year later, look, we're not quite at like first term levels of TBS.

00:08:31.000 I disagree with the Jackson Dar thing.

00:08:33.000 I don't think a year ago they were still getting significant pushback, and a couple people were brave enough to like last through it, but I definitely think it's still been there.

00:08:42.000 I mean, it would have been, I don't think it would have been like just as like ripping through the headlines like it did this time.

00:08:46.000 And we, I mean, we even saw like a lot of different athletes and musicians that would certainly not be considered political whatsoever that were endorsing Trump or at least, you know, speaking at his rally.

00:08:55.000 I mean, I went to his rally in the Bronx and they had Sleepy Hollow.

00:08:58.000 I mean, I know he was fishing for a pardon, but he was speaking there.

00:09:01.000 If he did that now, it'd be a much bigger story.

00:09:03.000 Look at how much Tony Hinchcliffe got backlash.

00:09:06.000 I mean, granted, for some of his jokes, but I thought, I mean, they were funny.

00:09:09.000 But, like, for just even showing up.

00:09:12.000 I mean, like, we were definitely having.

00:09:13.000 He's the only one we know that was there.

00:09:15.000 I mean, there were a lot of comedians and a lot of famous figures that were at that rally, but only Tony Hinchcliffe was picked up because of the joke.

00:09:19.000 But I'm just saying, if that happened now, everyone would be on the chopping block.

00:09:23.000 It would be like Jackson Dart on steroids.

00:09:25.000 This is the issue.

00:09:26.000 If you support Trump, Trump can do nothing for you.

00:09:30.000 If you support Trump, the left will threaten to murder you, and you will have to live constantly looking over your shoulder.

00:09:37.000 This is why, even, look, let's be real.

00:09:39.000 Did they get any actual artists worth listening to?

00:09:42.000 I don't know.

00:09:43.000 CNC Music Factory was big in 1989.

00:09:46.000 40 years ago.

00:09:47.000 I haven't heard of these.

00:09:48.000 Yeah.

00:09:48.000 Vanilla.

00:09:49.000 No, no, but understanding this, too.

00:09:51.000 The artists they got, they're targeting this demographic.

00:09:53.000 They're targeting older folks.

00:09:55.000 They're targeting 60 year olds who are going to come to DC for a year.

00:09:57.000 Well, Gen X and some millennials is what it looks like.

00:10:00.000 Because, like I said, Millennials?

00:10:01.000 I mean, the Commodore. 1.00

00:10:02.000 Oh, vanilla.

00:10:03.000 Yeah.

00:10:03.000 Wait a minute.

00:10:04.000 I'm a millennial.

00:10:05.000 And, like, I was just telling them, CNC Music Factory was the first CD I ever had because my grandfather.

00:10:09.000 Bought it for me, but like that was yeah, but like because millennial, I'm Gen X, but you're what was the first city you bought yourself?

00:10:16.000 Bone Thugs and Harmony, I think, first of the month, yeah.

00:10:19.000 Oh, that's a good one. 1.00

00:10:20.000 Maybe they should like the point is they're targeting Gen Xers a little bit older than you because the music that resonates with the generation is the stuff that they were into with their friends.

00:10:29.000 That's why if you go to restaurants, you'll like, I wasn't into any of these, you'll like right now the music they play at restaurants tends to be like late millennial to Gen Xer music.

00:10:38.000 That's who's got the money, that's who's showing up to buy food, right?

00:10:40.000 But my point is for a regular person.

00:10:45.000 Donald Trump provides no protection.

00:10:48.000 So if you're a high profile artist, they say, Do you want to perform for the president at this big DC thing?

00:10:53.000 They're going to say, I'm going to get paid a little bit of money and then someone's going to try to murder my family.

00:10:58.000 No, I won't do it.

00:11:00.000 My point is, we are in a cultural environment where most people fear the authority of Antifa and they do not fear the authority of Donald Trump.

00:11:13.000 Trump will not arrest you, Trump will not stop you, Trump will not.

00:11:16.000 Invoke the Insurrection Act.

00:11:17.000 Trump will not send police to stop what you're doing.

00:11:20.000 The feds will not arrest you.

00:11:21.000 They will do nothing. 0.99

00:11:23.000 Antifa will beat you to death.

00:11:25.000 So, at that Newark ICE facility, we saw that video where the staffer fans Antifa over and lets them search federal vehicles.

00:11:32.000 Tell me who has the authority over ICE right now.

00:11:35.000 Is it the extremists who are being deferred to to search vehicles, or is the president who can't stop them from doing it?

00:11:42.000 I don't want to.

00:11:44.000 Depends on the situation.

00:11:45.000 A lot of times they'll just defer to the mob, unfortunately.

00:11:47.000 But then later, they'll find all those people that were in that mob and get them.

00:11:51.000 I mean, that's what they hate.

00:11:52.000 I think that, I think that, you know, they're fielding a lot of these. 0.93

00:11:58.000 Like, I think that the left is way more psychotic and unhinged than even what we're seeing, right?

00:12:04.000 Like, we know this because we've been kind of living with it for a really long time, but like the rest of the people haven't.

00:12:10.000 And I don't think that you can even have that many resources to go after all these people.

00:12:15.000 I guess you could, but I don't know.

00:12:17.000 Like, they just, you know, they show up randomly all the time.

00:12:24.000 Like, they didn't get any trouble.

00:12:25.000 It's really their, it's like the local law enforcement, too, is a bigger part of the problem.

00:12:30.000 I wouldn't say just Trump.

00:12:32.000 I would say, like, local law enforcement, these Democratic cities, like, yeah, if you're in Philly, no, nobody's going to, they're going to tell them to stand down or Seattle.

00:12:41.000 I think it's more local law enforcement that isn't going to do anything, but you are right in that they never get punished.

00:12:46.000 And so.

00:12:48.000 And I think it shows that, like, too, any cultural cachet that the right had around the 2024 campaign was just temporary.

00:12:56.000 Where the right has no real cultural power at a macro level as far as pop culture goes.

00:13:00.000 Because when Megan Thee Stallion was going and performing at a Kamala rally, do you think it ever occurred to her once?

00:13:05.000 Oh, what if the right gets really upset at this?

00:13:07.000 And, like, no, it never did because we don't act like that.

00:13:10.000 Well, because we don't act like that, but also because there's no like conservative artists for the most part. 0.92

00:13:14.000 I mean, anybody that thinks of themselves, in my opinion, as a leftist or a rightist is kind of queer. 0.96

00:13:20.000 Like, dude, that's not cool. 1.00

00:13:21.000 You're not cool to be like, you're not cool.

00:13:23.000 It's kind of what? 1.00

00:13:24.000 Queer. 1.00

00:13:25.000 You're not cool to put yourself in a box. 1.00

00:13:27.000 That's not cool. 1.00

00:13:28.000 Cool is that where I don't give a fuck. 0.99

00:13:29.000 I mean, I'm a far right authoritarian person. 0.99

00:13:31.000 Like, so, like, well, I think it's more that I'm in a box.

00:13:34.000 I think it's more that you don't need permission to, uh, Be a liberal, but you need permission to live or endorse conservative candidates.

00:13:41.000 Insofar as in 2024, the dam kind of broke to the point where people felt comfortable supporting President Trump.

00:13:48.000 People that maybe were secretly concerned.

00:13:50.000 You're seeing this play out right now in Los Angeles, where you're seeing people like there's rumors that DiCaprio is actually liking Pratt.

00:13:55.000 But since no one in the press is giving a permission piece to allow you to support Censor Pratt, they just can't do it.

00:14:00.000 Where in 2024, that dam did break.

00:14:02.000 This is why I am not optimistic about long term prospects in this country.

00:14:07.000 Because Antifa operates with impunity and people fear Antifa.

00:14:11.000 If there was an Antifa, listen, you're walking down the street and there's Alex Brusowitz on your right and there's Antifa on your left.

00:14:19.000 And Brusowitz says, Ian, do me a favor.

00:14:22.000 Don't walk this way because we're setting something up and we're going to be painting right here. 0.96

00:14:26.000 And then Antifa says, if you walk anywhere near me, I'll bash your face in. 0.56

00:14:30.000 You're going to be like, sorry, Alex, I don't want to get my face bashed in. 0.99

00:14:30.000 Right. 0.99

00:14:32.000 It's reasonable to be concerned or fear street thugs at all levels.

00:14:36.000 I think it's reasonable.

00:14:37.000 But that's what we are about.

00:14:38.000 And in fact, What's happening is Donald Trump's on one side of the street, Andy was on the other, and we're going, Mr. President, can you stop this person from threatening me?

00:14:45.000 And he goes, I'm real busy in Iran.

00:14:47.000 The point I wanted to make earlier, it feels like Trump took his base and threw him under the bus.

00:14:51.000 Maybe during the Epstein thing when he was like, You're all wrong.

00:14:54.000 It was a big lie anyway.

00:14:56.000 Look the other direction.

00:14:57.000 And he's like, He used people to get into office and then he discarded them.

00:15:00.000 And I don't feel, it seems like he just doesn't.

00:15:03.000 I mean, he did pardon Ross Albricht, but I don't know.

00:15:07.000 He got what he needed out of people.

00:15:08.000 He used him as jet fuel and now he's out.

00:15:10.000 And I really don't feel like, I don't think that it's the federal government's responsibility to police these people in these cities.

00:15:10.000 I don't feel that way.

00:15:17.000 These cities are run by Democrat activists themselves.

00:15:21.000 And so they're not going to sick their police force off of them.

00:15:23.000 I don't think it comes top down from the top.

00:15:26.000 And I mean, like, I don't know, maybe this makes me a bit of a contrarian here, but I'm not even entirely buying that these people are ultimately afraid of like potential leftist violence.

00:15:33.000 I just think the vibe has shifted in this country where, again, it is not in vogue to support Trump right now.

00:15:38.000 And these people ultimately do, they are at the behest of perception.

00:15:41.000 They're audience controlled, they're audience captured.

00:15:44.000 They're listening to their friends, to their management companies.

00:15:46.000 No, I think I disagree.

00:15:48.000 Martina, it's about threats.

00:15:49.000 Hang on, let me finish here real quick.

00:15:50.000 Is Martina McBride literally performed the theme song for Sean Hannity's show?

00:15:55.000 Like, she is someone that has been comfortable supporting consumer rights.

00:15:57.000 And she still is.

00:15:58.000 Which is why it's not a vibe change.

00:16:00.000 No, it's the death threats.

00:16:00.000 Right.

00:16:01.000 No, it's the death threats.

00:16:02.000 Approval rating's never been lower.

00:16:04.000 Again, the TDS is back in a large way.

00:16:06.000 It wasn't this way a year ago.

00:16:07.000 The TDS was not at the level it is.

00:16:09.000 Yes, but your point only can exist with death threats.

00:16:15.000 No, I think my point exists because I think Martina McBride, where she would have something to gain from it a year ago, she has nothing to gain from it now. 0.92

00:16:20.000 She's like, what?

00:16:21.000 I'm just going to wade into a controversy out of nowhere.

00:16:23.000 There is zero reality where artists who were booked and paid went, you know, a lot of people don't like Trump.

00:16:28.000 I shouldn't perform.

00:16:29.000 Yeah, I know.

00:16:30.000 The reality is they got messages saying bad things will happen to you, and they were like, I don't want to be involved with anything.

00:16:35.000 Well, I think that's part of it, but I think the majority is they just don't think there's anything to gain from participating in something that's controversial.

00:16:41.000 That's why they're not endorsing Spencer Pratt.

00:16:42.000 That's why Trump is like losing out.

00:16:44.000 It's because the left has been going around with impunity for a decade, beating people with crowbars.

00:16:48.000 And now they're getting shot at at the White House Correspondence Center.

00:16:52.000 There's another shooting the other day.

00:16:53.000 There's this shooting, that shooting.

00:16:54.000 And they're like, I'm getting death threats.

00:16:56.000 And these threats are legitimate because of what they're doing.

00:16:58.000 In the chat right now, someone just posted the guy who had a house with the Trump decorations was beaten to death.

00:17:02.000 Yeah.

00:17:03.000 I know.

00:17:03.000 I'm not denying that that's a thing.

00:17:05.000 That's the vibe change you're talking about.

00:17:07.000 You will die if you don't get it.

00:17:08.000 But I'm saying, I think a lot of people can justify it by saying they're worried about leftist violence, but I think a lot of them are just not comfortable supporting Trump right now.

00:17:14.000 I don't think that's the case.

00:17:15.000 Trump's been in a state of.

00:17:16.000 Why are they not comfortable supporting Trump?

00:17:18.000 Because it's not in vogue.

00:17:18.000 Because he's.

00:17:19.000 It's controversial.

00:17:20.000 It's going to make you look bad.

00:17:21.000 It's embarrassing for a lot of these people.

00:17:23.000 I don't think when you are a performer and you're weighing whether or not you want to perform, you're going, well, we are getting death threats, but who cares about that?

00:17:31.000 I'm more concerned about looking bad.

00:17:33.000 I'm saying that's a component of it, but I'm not saying that's the component that.

00:17:35.000 That is the prerequisite.

00:17:37.000 But I'm saying, even if there was like zero death threats whatsoever, I think a lot of these people would still be pulling out.

00:17:42.000 They think it's like, what is there to gain from it?

00:17:43.000 Maybe two reasons.

00:17:44.000 One is like, we're going to have a political movement to have a bunch of musicians come because you're basically saying, I'm part of the party now.

00:17:51.000 And like, you're a musician, you know, you're an artist.

00:17:54.000 These people were booked, confirmed, they're getting paid.

00:17:57.000 What changed in the last month? 0.65

00:17:59.000 The Democrat media machine has made America 250 into the right wing Chud parade.

00:18:04.000 No, They all canceled the moment the announcement went out.

00:18:08.000 So the vibe changed happened in that one day?

00:18:10.000 No, the vibe.

00:18:10.000 The death threats came in in that one day.

00:18:12.000 The vibe changed around the beginning of the year, where again, it became in vogue again.

00:18:15.000 TDS became.

00:18:16.000 So why didn't they cancel sporadically throughout the past six months?

00:18:19.000 Why did they all cancel just when they were announced?

00:18:22.000 Because America 250, the whole organization was a bipartisan sort of thing.

00:18:26.000 It was seen as neutral.

00:18:27.000 And then as soon as these people started clocking, the perception in the media and the perception among the American public is that America 250.

00:18:33.000 Okay, I asked you a question.

00:18:35.000 Yeah, that's all I'm saying.

00:18:36.000 Why did they all cancel the same day?

00:18:38.000 Because that's when the media machine has been fired up and they are all announced and they got heat for it and they said, no, I don't want to participate.

00:18:43.000 So if it really was a vibe change, wouldn't it have happened sporadically and unrelated to each other?

00:18:49.000 Well, again, people weren't talking about America 250 in February, but that's when this sort of shift started to happen.

00:18:55.000 And when the shift was happening and the approval rating has been going down for several months, these people would have dropped off one by one and never have been announced in the first place.

00:19:02.000 Because I think the perception of America 250, there was zero discussion around it, there was zero discourse around it, and then now that it's being talked about right now, And now, the general perception among the public, the general perception among the media is that America 250 is basically a Republican rally.

00:19:16.000 They don't want to participate in it.

00:19:17.000 So, why did that vibe change just happen in one day?

00:19:22.000 No.

00:19:22.000 What I'm saying is that America 250 no one was talking about the incident.

00:19:25.000 They all canceled yesterday.

00:19:26.000 All of these cancellations were yesterday.

00:19:28.000 Do they have the same stuff when it was announced?

00:19:29.000 Are they using management?

00:19:30.000 Is there a management company that books these guys?

00:19:32.000 So, maybe the management company sent it to all the artists and was like, no, all of the artists said, when we were pitched this, we thought this is cool.

00:19:38.000 The day they announced the artists, they all said, you know what, we've decided this is too divisive.

00:19:42.000 Yeah.

00:19:43.000 So what happened is the flyer gets released. 1.00

00:19:45.000 They get waves of death threats and say, this is fucked. 1.00

00:19:48.000 This is crazy. 1.00

00:19:48.000 I don't want to do this. 1.00

00:19:49.000 I mean, I'm again, I'm not downplaying that the death threats are playing a role in this, but I'm saying primarily right now, if you're a musical artist, you just have zero to gain from participating in this.

00:20:00.000 That is just true. 0.96

00:20:02.000 And these people are cowards ultimately. 0.97

00:20:04.000 These people don't like, they're not trying to be political people. 0.96

00:20:06.000 They're not trying to take, you think of like, you think the Commodores care about like, you know, doing the right thing here?

00:20:12.000 No, they're reacting to, Incentive structures.

00:20:14.000 And right now, it is super disadvantage to be a Trump supporter right now.

00:20:19.000 There's zero question about it.

00:20:20.000 Half the right and the media hate you.

00:20:22.000 That's because Trump's been like, I think the right wing.

00:20:24.000 That's kind of been the case for 10 years.

00:20:26.000 Well, that's my point there's always been an attack vector on Trump.

00:20:29.000 So a lot of these right wingers are not participating.

00:20:30.000 Is the argument that there was a shallow blip five months ago where all these people thought it was beneficial to support Trump?

00:20:38.000 Yes.

00:20:39.000 And it was like, for 10 years, you can't support Trump. 0.99

00:20:42.000 Trump is evil.

00:20:43.000 And there was this brief window of a few weeks where they booked all these people where it was like, actually, Trump's okay now. 0.99

00:20:48.000 And then Trump became evil again?

00:20:49.000 No, what I'm saying is going to the 2024 campaign and into the first year of his campaign, Trump did have a better perception among the American public because they were exhausted after the Biden administration.

00:20:58.000 They hated Biden.

00:20:59.000 And Trump, it was cool to support him for a while.

00:21:01.000 Like again, Rogan, that entire thing.

00:21:03.000 It was getting cooler.

00:21:04.000 NFL players were doing his dance and that.

00:21:06.000 And so I agree with some of that.

00:21:07.000 So the culture, there was a shift, there was a vibe shift.

00:21:09.000 And what I'm saying is, when America 250 was initially being booked, it was not perceived as a partisan event.

00:21:14.000 When it was being booked out, the pitch was to all these people, and the America 250 organization is still a nonpartisan entity. 0.91

00:21:21.000 They were all saying, oh, well, this is like a wholesome, chungus July 4th event.

00:21:24.000 And then now, as the media machine is fired up, they're saying, well, this is basically a Republican right wing parade.

00:21:29.000 If you're participating in that and you're the Commodores, you're like, well, I don't want to, what's the, what's, Motivation and the primary motivation being because what's more serious, your life or your reputation, right?

00:21:45.000 At that point.

00:21:46.000 So I think the primary motivation is the death threats and the legitimacy of the death threats because we've been seeing legitimate action taken, right?

00:21:56.000 With the things that I mentioned before.

00:21:58.000 And then the secondary event is like, okay, yeah, well, it's not real popular right now.

00:22:02.000 It is the death threats, 100%.

00:22:04.000 And the proof is in the Millie Vanilli.

00:22:06.000 Millie Vanilli doesn't have a vibe check to ride on.

00:22:09.000 These are all. 1.00

00:22:09.000 1989, 1990 old school washed up people with nothing to show for it. 1.00

00:22:15.000 With all due respect to Vanilla Ice, when was his last single?

00:22:18.000 No, these people are all washed. 0.98

00:22:20.000 This is a pathetic thing. 0.94

00:22:21.000 So there is absolutely something to gain for deciding to look if you have zero and your career is over and Trump comes up and says, Well, I can do one thing for you. 0.95

00:22:31.000 I can give you access to my bass.

00:22:33.000 We've got 60 million people that will love you and buy your albums.

00:22:37.000 You've got no album sales now.

00:22:39.000 How would you feel to perform for 60?

00:22:41.000 And they said, Okay.

00:22:43.000 The point is, if this was Sabrina Carpenter, Beyonce, and they were canceling, I'd agree with you.

00:22:49.000 These are people who are like, this is bad for our sales.

00:22:52.000 These people don't have sales.

00:22:53.000 No, I think it's the other way around.

00:22:55.000 I think the fact that these are the only people that would agree to it in the first place indicates how dire things had gotten.

00:23:00.000 Agreed.

00:23:00.000 So why are they now canceling?

00:23:02.000 It's not vibes, it's death.

00:23:03.000 It's because it's like, it is just a toxic environment to participate in if you're a musician.

00:23:08.000 It's actually the other way around where people that are washed up like this are extremely sensitive.

00:23:11.000 Ian, would you perform? 0.90

00:23:13.000 You know, I thought about it.

00:23:14.000 I don't know.

00:23:16.000 I don't want to perform for Trump.

00:23:19.000 I would perform for the American people, but it's a nonpartisan Freedom Fest, Fourth of July celebration.

00:23:24.000 Would you play there if they asked you? 1.00

00:23:26.000 Fuck yeah, dude. 1.00

00:23:27.000 The point is this. 1.00

00:23:27.000 I would. 1.00

00:23:28.000 That was the initial point.

00:23:29.000 All of the people who are booked are washed up, lesser known.

00:23:33.000 They don't have to worry about it.

00:23:35.000 They don't have sales.

00:23:36.000 They don't do concerts.

00:23:36.000 They're not doing stadiums and arenas.

00:23:39.000 If it was a band that sold arenas and they said, the vibe right now is Trump is unpopular and we don't want to risk our business.

00:23:46.000 By aligning ourselves with one side, we cut our business in half.

00:23:49.000 These are people who don't have a business.

00:23:51.000 That's why it's even more dire for them because, again, vanilla ice has no, like, the average American doesn't really have a perception.

00:23:58.000 I gotta say it because you're not addressing what I'm saying.

00:24:00.000 I am, I am.

00:24:01.000 If you are vanilla ice, you have zero sales.

00:24:03.000 I know.

00:24:03.000 Your opportunity is to at least gain half of the market.

00:24:06.000 Why would you turn that down?

00:24:07.000 No, it's the other way around.

00:24:09.000 It's the fact that there is zero perception of who vanilla ice is in 2026.

00:24:12.000 No one cares about him.

00:24:13.000 So, again, this is when.

00:24:14.000 Oh, he's still playing, by the way.

00:24:15.000 He's a bad guy.

00:24:16.000 I know.

00:24:16.000 I'm just saying for these people, this will now be the perception of them in the American zeitgeist.

00:24:20.000 Oh, well, that's.

00:24:20.000 That's the guy that I hadn't heard from for 40 years, and all of a sudden he reemerges and he's participating in the Trump rally.

00:24:25.000 The new kid rock.

00:24:26.000 But hold on.

00:24:27.000 There's a new kid rock.

00:24:28.000 Millie Vanilli is never coming back.

00:24:30.000 It's just Millie.

00:24:31.000 There's never going to be a circumstance where he's brought into Hollywood and they say, Millie, you're the best.

00:24:37.000 We're selling your album now, Platinum.

00:24:38.000 We're going to put you in a movie.

00:24:39.000 It's not going to happen. 0.80

00:24:40.000 So if you are a washed up has been, if you are someone who had a single 40 years ago, and they're like, this is your chance to actually perform for a large audience again, what would make you say no to that? 0.97

00:24:53.000 Again, like your point about a vibe shift would imply they exist in the cultural zeitgeist, but they don't. 0.95

00:24:57.000 I think the vibe shift happened over the last four months, two months, and even three, four, whenever you said the media stuff.

00:25:03.000 I think it happened around the ICE protest.

00:25:05.000 And then it erupted in assassination attempts, shootings, and now threats because of the vibe check.

00:25:11.000 So you're right that the vibe check did happen.

00:25:14.000 And you're right that the threats are the reason these people are canceling.

00:25:17.000 Wait, wait.

00:25:18.000 I got to give a shout out to someone in chat.

00:25:20.000 There is a weird thing. 0.63

00:25:21.000 Vash says Millie Vanilli will just blame it on the rain.

00:25:24.000 Can you imagine if they don't cancel, but then the 4th of July it rains and they were like, Due to rain, we won't be performing?

00:25:30.000 Dude, here's a question.

00:25:32.000 We live in a simulation if that happens.

00:25:34.000 I have a broader question.

00:25:35.000 Because the threats have escalated, do you think that anybody will show up?

00:25:41.000 Now, you know that the base would show up to this, right?

00:25:44.000 You know, like the base MAGA crowd would normally show up.

00:25:47.000 But with all the death threats, like the people that I know that are older than they were, certainly, what, six years ago, eight years ago, I don't think that they're willing to go.

00:25:59.000 And show up even at these events because look at what happened at the White House correspondence now.

00:26:04.000 I don't know if they're going to win or they may fight either because drone bombs.

00:26:07.000 Who knows?

00:26:07.000 I don't think they're going to win.

00:26:08.000 Guys, is that right now?

00:26:09.000 They actually have a weather forecast for July already.

00:26:12.000 And they can change the weather.

00:26:13.000 Well, it's not going to rain on the floor in July.

00:26:14.000 I'm just saying it's pretty weird that I can look up July 31st weather.

00:26:18.000 The Harper's Almanac's been doing that for decades.

00:26:21.000 But really, Tim, do you think that they're going to have a good turnout for this anyway because of the political violence that we've been seeing?

00:26:26.000 They're not going to have a good turnout for it because it's been mismanaged and we're not going to be there.

00:26:30.000 Yeah, I think the moment that Timcast crew said we won't be at this festival, I knew no one would go because we are the top crew.

00:26:30.000 Yeah, I don't want to.

00:26:38.000 Well, that's true.

00:26:39.000 That's very true.

00:26:40.000 No one goes at IMAX.

00:26:41.000 We're not going because nothing's happening.

00:26:42.000 And a month ago, we were trying to figure out what our plans for the 4th of July are.

00:26:46.000 And we were talking about going to the World Series of Poker.

00:26:49.000 There's a lot going on out there, and there's a lot of high profile individuals we could have on the show, as well as sports coverage for my participation.

00:26:58.000 And I said, yeah, but I would rather be at the 4th of July in DC than go and play the World Series of Poker.

00:27:04.000 I mean, So then we check the calendar and all the scheduling, and they're not doing anything.

00:27:08.000 Yeah.

00:27:08.000 So this event, they're talking about the music, isn't for the 4th of July.

00:27:11.000 It's June 25th to July 10th.

00:27:14.000 So what's happening on the 4th of July?

00:27:15.000 Nothing.

00:27:16.000 There's going to be fireworks, and there's going to be people in DC.

00:27:21.000 But when we reached out saying, Are there going to be shows?

00:27:23.000 Is there going to be some kind of big event?

00:27:25.000 There is not.

00:27:26.000 Do you think that's due to violence?

00:27:26.000 And I said, Okay, well then.

00:27:30.000 No, I think it's mismanagement.

00:27:31.000 I think, first of all, the fact, I mean, listen, why isn't Kid Rock on here?

00:27:35.000 Did he say no?

00:27:36.000 Good point.

00:27:37.000 Where's Young?

00:27:38.000 Because, no, because again, this is a bipartisan, non political entity that put this thing together.

00:27:43.000 They're not going to put like comics in.

00:27:44.000 They're not going to put like comics in.

00:27:46.000 They're not going to put like music factory bone, bro.

00:27:48.000 These are the only people they could find.

00:27:50.000 And this is a derivative from my larger point that I've had around America 250 I think a lot of people on the right assume or they'd like to think that the reason why no one in America cares about America 250 right now is because of the left or because of political violence.

00:28:03.000 The reality is our country has just changed dramatically and people just don't have interest in like patriotic events anymore.

00:28:09.000 That's the reality of the situation.

00:28:10.000 Like July 4th, No one is celebrating the independence of the United States.

00:28:14.000 They're just like, oh, it's fun.

00:28:15.000 I can drink.

00:28:15.000 Well, Chicago canceled it.

00:28:17.000 Chicago doesn't do the 4th of July anymore.

00:28:17.000 And then, yeah.

00:28:19.000 But like, when did they cancel it?

00:28:20.000 A few years ago.

00:28:22.000 And I'll tell you this Donald Trump, if he does not succeed, America is gone.

00:28:29.000 And I want to explain because a nation is its people and its people are diminished.

00:28:33.000 So I'll give you an example.

00:28:35.000 I went to the Christmas festival in Chicago.

00:28:37.000 We go every year.

00:28:40.000 And I remember, you know, when I was a kid and you go there, basically they have a bunch of little German, kind of like Bavarian shops and stuff like this.

00:28:46.000 And you can get Durr waffles, and they have every year they have custom mugs.

00:28:51.000 And so my wife really loves it.

00:28:52.000 She goes every year. 1.00

00:28:53.000 The past few years we've gone, it's been largely Indians. 1.00

00:28:57.000 I'm not saying Indian in a disparaging way or to single out like H1Bs. 1.00

00:29:00.000 No, like literally, you can no longer walk in the Christmas fest. 1.00

00:29:04.000 It's shoulder to shoulder with nobody moving, jammed, trying to squeeze through. 1.00

00:29:08.000 And it's largely Indians and a lot of Chinese. 0.93

00:29:11.000 Yeah.

00:29:11.000 And I was wondering myself, I'm like, man, like when I was a kid, it wasn't like all white or anything, but it wasn't super crowded.

00:29:18.000 And you'd go there and it was Christmas and there's a Christmas tree and it was Christian. 0.96

00:29:22.000 Now it's not Christian anymore. 0.60

00:29:24.000 Now it's just novelty. 0.89

00:29:27.000 Fourth of July in Chicago.

00:29:28.000 We used to have the taste of Chicago.

00:29:30.000 Every Fourth of July weekend, they would set up booths all across, like Grant Park, Millennium Park, and you'd buy tickets.

00:29:39.000 With tickets, you could get various food items.

00:29:41.000 They were kind of small because it was the taste of Chicago.

00:29:43.000 So they had all these different kinds of foods you can eat.

00:29:46.000 Then they'd have fireworks over the lake, and it was grand, and everybody wanted to be there.

00:29:51.000 They no longer have the taste of Chicago, and they no longer do the Fourth of July fireworks anymore.

00:29:55.000 It's weird.

00:29:55.000 And you know why?

00:29:56.000 It's actually pretty obvious because the city is no longer American. 0.98

00:30:00.000 It's really, really simple. 0.84

00:30:02.000 The city votes for a mayor.

00:30:04.000 The mayor says, I was elected by a bunch of communists, and communists don't like America, and there's not enough American, red blooded, freedom loving people.

00:30:14.000 It's really, really simple.

00:30:15.000 Right now, everyone in this room, we all vote should we have cheeseburgers for lunch?

00:30:21.000 And we all like cheeseburgers, so we all say yes.

00:30:23.000 Then begins the tradition of Tim Cast's Friday Cheeseburger Day.

00:30:26.000 And we all love it.

00:30:27.000 Every Friday, we all get cheeseburgers and we celebrate. 1.00

00:30:30.000 Enter the Hindus. 1.00

00:30:31.000 One day, Tim Cast hires a bunch of H 1Bs. 1.00

00:30:35.000 And then we're sitting in this room and we say, Well, it's Friday. 1.00

00:30:38.000 Sounds like it's hamburger day. 1.00

00:30:40.000 Now, there's currently five of us here, but then we hired six H1Bs from India and they go, Actually, we do not want to eat beef. 1.00

00:30:47.000 We would like to have Impossible Burger. 1.00

00:30:50.000 And then they all vote and we go, Impossible Burger wins.

00:30:53.000 I guess we're not going to do our tradition anymore.

00:30:55.000 And then we're all bummed out, being like, Man, remember how great it was?

00:30:59.000 We had the great tradition of cheeseburgers.

00:31:01.000 That's what's happening across all of our cities.

00:31:04.000 That's why Chicago doesn't have a Fourth of July anymore.

00:31:06.000 That's why no one cares about going to the Fourth of July.

00:31:08.000 And that's why even this nonpartisan, whatever organization, didn't organize a 4th of July event.

00:31:13.000 I don't think so.

00:31:14.000 They organized a two week long festival where on the 4th of July, there are no special events planned.

00:31:19.000 Yeah, like this is a problem broadly with American culture it's just dissolved.

00:31:23.000 I mean, the bicentennial, I wasn't alive, obviously, but everyone that was said the bicentennial was incredible.

00:31:28.000 Like it was a big thing.

00:31:29.000 Everyone was very aware of it.

00:31:31.000 You had documentaries, wall to wall coverage, covering all these great American moments, et cetera, et cetera.

00:31:36.000 Well, did, like, what did the left just, like, You know, discard American patriotism.

00:31:40.000 No, the country by and large dissolved, and the Republican Party was a junior partner in this entire operation.

00:31:45.000 And the evidence for this is it's not just America 250 that people don't care about.

00:31:48.000 The World Cups this summer in the United States, and you could say, well, that's communism, soccer, who cares?

00:31:53.000 The World Cup was here in 1992.

00:31:55.000 Everyone was obsessed with it.

00:31:56.000 It was a very big event, it was a really big deal, and Americans did not care about soccer at all in the 90s, at least now, like, I don't know, maybe a quarter of the country cares.

00:32:03.000 So the fact that the World Cup's coming, no one cares.

00:32:06.000 America 250 is coming, no one cares.

00:32:08.000 Everyone will say the same thing.

00:32:09.000 Christmas doesn't feel like Christmas anymore.

00:32:11.000 Well, Thanksgiving doesn't feel like Thanksgiving anymore.

00:32:13.000 Why does the Super Bowl feel so weird now?

00:32:14.000 Everything we're unable to mobilize as a culture in the United States anymore because, to Tim's point, everyone is deracinated, everyone is nihilistic.

00:32:22.000 Just no one can work up the courage to care about anything anymore because right now, the only thing in the United States that is uncool, like the number one thing that is uncool to do in the United States right now, is to care about something.

00:32:32.000 Being a serious person that cares about things is it makes you a pariah.

00:32:38.000 Like it is deeply uncool to be serious and to care about things.

00:32:42.000 That is just absolutely true.

00:32:43.000 That's why we are unable to mobilize.

00:32:45.000 You care?

00:32:46.000 I mean, I well, I mean, I care, but if you care about the wrong, like the left right is like that's not good to care about.

00:32:54.000 That's like, it shows that you're at a lower level of what's happening on earth if you're like, they're bad.

00:32:59.000 I'm not anybody under 100 IQ.

00:33:04.000 I'm not.

00:33:06.000 There's a geopolitical economic coup in mandatory baseball in flow right now.

00:33:10.000 Football's okay too.

00:33:11.000 And if you're not focused on the geopolitical economic coup that's coming out of Switzerland, then that's the problem.

00:33:17.000 You should be caring about technocracy.

00:33:19.000 That's cool to care about.

00:33:21.000 I think it's the other way around is that people, the only thing that people do care about is things that are completely out of their control.

00:33:27.000 And then the things that people are ambivalent on are things that are fully within their control.

00:33:30.000 Actually, on the right, the primary problem is everyone is like committed to taking down a pedophile Davos controlled cabal.

00:33:37.000 And they're like totally missing, you know, the forest for the trees, where it's like there's actually things that are well within our range that we can control.

00:33:43.000 And people are completely ambivalent towards these things.

00:33:45.000 They don't care at all.

00:33:46.000 And the only things they really do care about are like things in the total abstract.

00:33:49.000 Oh, I got an idea.

00:33:50.000 Uniforms.

00:33:51.000 We should have uniforms at Timcast and they're American flag shirts.

00:33:54.000 Dude, I kind of.

00:33:56.000 And every morning, the first job everyone has to do is play a game of football.

00:34:00.000 We should do the Pledge of Allegiance every morning.

00:34:02.000 We should do the Pledge of Allegiance every morning.

00:34:04.000 Huddle up and pray.

00:34:04.000 We should do the Pledge of Allegiance all the time.

00:34:06.000 And I do like outfits, just on American flags.

00:34:08.000 They can have like a little American flag on them, but they've got to be clay.

00:34:11.000 Yeah, because it's a violation of flag code to wear the flag.

00:34:14.000 I mean, like the last Olympics, no one cared.

00:34:14.000 Really?

00:34:16.000 I mean, everything that used to be important that people cared about, American culture is just unable to mobilize.

00:34:22.000 When people watched it, it wasn't like the 08 Olympics where everyone was talking about it.

00:34:25.000 Wait, wait, wait.

00:34:26.000 Wait, I got a better idea.

00:34:26.000 Instead of a Pledge of Allegiance to the flag, I've never been a big fan of.

00:34:30.000 Pledging allegiance to the flag.

00:34:31.000 I just, the whole thing was weird to me.

00:34:32.000 Like, if they said we stayed up, like, if when we were kids, we stood up and we said, you know, actually, we actually did sing, My Country Tis of Thee.

00:34:41.000 That was fine.

00:34:41.000 Yeah.

00:34:42.000 And what's that other one where it's like, oh, beautiful for.

00:34:45.000 Beautiful.

00:34:46.000 Gracious Guy, something like that.

00:34:47.000 Yeah.

00:34:48.000 Yeah, for Amber.

00:34:49.000 Yeah, those were fun singing it.

00:34:51.000 But looking at the flag and being like, that flag is what I'm.

00:34:53.000 No, no, no, no.

00:34:54.000 Like, we're totally.

00:34:54.000 When they say the flag, it's like a.

00:34:57.000 I get it, but how about this?

00:34:58.000 Instead of pledging allegiance, we pledge disdain to the Pride Progress flag.

00:35:03.000 I will say, I don't like the Constitution either.

00:35:07.000 There is such a thing as a Constitution.

00:35:08.000 I pledge allegiance to the Bill of Rights, but not to the flag itself, because if the government goes evil, I'm not going to.

00:35:13.000 No, you don't.

00:35:14.000 Let's do it.

00:35:15.000 America's great because of its people.

00:35:16.000 There's no Constitution.

00:35:17.000 And it's funny how conservatives get really mad when I bring this up.

00:35:19.000 But free speech, you know.

00:35:21.000 You don't believe in free speech.

00:35:22.000 I do believe in free speech.

00:35:23.000 Or I wouldn't be doing this.

00:35:23.000 No, you don't.

00:35:24.000 Do you believe the Founding Fathers were correct on the First Amendment?

00:35:27.000 Yeah. 0.98

00:35:28.000 You would be in prison with everything you've said about Jews and Christianity if you agree with the Founding Fathers.

00:35:32.000 Oh, but I wouldn't have said this. 0.86

00:35:33.000 I agree with the Founding Fathers.

00:35:34.000 I would have amalgamated to one.

00:35:35.000 Because blasphemy was illegal.

00:35:37.000 The primary reason why America became so successful is because the initial stock of people was like 120 IQ.

00:35:42.000 That's because everybody comes in right now.

00:35:45.000 And the evidence for this is the fact that New Zealand, Australia, Canada, vastly different government systems than ours, but they're also immensely successful, nice places up and all up.

00:35:53.000 Well, how do you explain?

00:35:54.000 Because the people changed. 0.98

00:35:55.000 How do you explain that the Australians were just a bunch of criminals? 1.00

00:35:58.000 They were literally the worst stock of Anglos and they still produced a really fantastic country. 1.00

00:36:04.000 And that's just 100% true, by the way. 1.00

00:36:05.000 Fair.

00:36:06.000 I just think that. 0.97

00:36:08.000 We really bastardized whatever the Constitution was supposed to be with the 17th Amendment, with anybody other than people.

00:36:15.000 I think you should have an IQ test to vote, and it's got to be above 115.

00:36:19.000 Well, the problem with IQ tests is that, like, there's a bunch of different.

00:36:24.000 Let me put it this way Mensa is supposed to be high IQ people, right?

00:36:29.000 But if you're good at solving a puzzle, does it mean you can really comprehend foreign policy and domestic policy?

00:36:34.000 It doesn't.

00:36:35.000 You might be really good at solving a math problem very quickly, but.

00:36:37.000 And that might make you.

00:36:38.000 It's true.

00:36:39.000 I mean, that's true.

00:36:40.000 However, they did.

00:36:43.000 They did like instead before, instead of SAT scores and stuff, they did like admit people and take job applications for people with higher IQs.

00:36:51.000 And it was actually very productive, very successful.

00:36:55.000 Is there a true representation of IQ?

00:36:56.000 I'll put it this way an intelligence test, but not an IQ test.

00:36:59.000 IQ tests are subjective and they're based on an average.

00:37:02.000 So 100 is just the average of all of the people who've taken the test or something that, you know.

00:37:08.000 So that's why IQ changes. 1.00

00:37:11.000 The funny thing is, I was reading how they had to change the baseline for retardation because they were like, what was it? 1.00

00:37:18.000 Like anything below 80 is retarded. 0.99

00:37:20.000 And they were like, that's actually large swaths of the amount. 0.99

00:37:22.000 The global population.

00:37:24.000 Yes. 1.00

00:37:24.000 They're not all retards. 1.00

00:37:25.000 Not even global populations, city populations. 1.00

00:37:27.000 That's like the entirety.

00:37:28.000 And I'm not even trying to be mean. 0.96

00:37:29.000 That's like literally the entirety of Haiti. 0.56

00:37:31.000 Oh, wait.

00:37:31.000 So you're saying if most of society gets smarter, but you stay the same, your IQ goes down?

00:37:35.000 Because now it's a global population.

00:37:36.000 So global IQs have actually gone down.

00:37:38.000 So age is a factor.

00:37:39.000 So if you are like a seven year old who has the average, whose IQ is comparable to the 15 year old, they're like, oh, your IQ is 140.

00:37:48.000 Oh.

00:37:49.000 But if you then do not develop from there, your IQ just goes down as you get older.

00:37:53.000 The other thing is 100 is an average.

00:37:55.000 Meaning, it's based on everybody who's taking the test.

00:37:58.000 What is the average intelligence?

00:38:00.000 Will be 100.

00:38:02.000 So, arguably.

00:38:03.000 Also, when you're taking them, when you're young too, kids don't like totally take it seriously or try hard or pay attention or they're distracted from it.

00:38:10.000 The problem is people's IQ, if you take an IQ test at 17, you can take the IQ test now at 44, and it would be two drastically different numbers depending on what you're putting into the test.

00:38:22.000 One of the components of IQ is like spatial reasoning, and that's where they'll show you, it'll look like a cross, and they'll say, Take this image and fold it into a cube, and then you know, which like, then they ask you which side they they there's a few things sequencing like they'll show you different pictures, and you're supposed to know.

00:38:41.000 And it'll be like, it'll be a cube with a dot in it, and then it'll be a cube with two dots, and the cube with three dots, and you're like four dots, but then they'll rotate and they'll flip. 0.88

00:38:49.000 The ability to do that does not matter if the question is something like, Should women vote? 1.00

00:38:55.000 The answer is no, they shouldn't. 0.98

00:38:57.000 But my point ultimately is that is a very, very deep philosophical and moral. 0.99

00:39:02.000 Conundrum and your ability to track patterns has very little to do with whether or not you have the knowledge and wisdom to understand the behaviors of women. 0.71

00:39:11.000 The point ultimately is this certainly, your ability to solve puzzles and do math is good. 0.71

00:39:19.000 There's other elements of IQ, it's a quotient, there's reading comprehension and things of that nature.

00:39:24.000 But if we were to ask someone to solve a series of visual puzzles and they score really high, then you ask them about abortion and they have no idea and they have all propaganda and bad.

00:39:35.000 Like their understanding of abortion is completely wrong.

00:39:38.000 They're going to vote improperly.

00:39:39.000 So IQ doesn't solve for this problem.

00:39:42.000 I think the hope is that IQ will let you learn more data rapidly that you don't necessarily agree with.

00:39:48.000 There just has to be a different system.

00:39:50.000 Letting everybody vote is better.

00:39:52.000 Literacy is better.

00:39:54.000 Literacy, like I told you before, 52% of Philadelphia is functionally illiterate.

00:39:59.000 Yes, we solve.

00:40:00.000 Listen, listen.

00:40:01.000 You want to solve the problem?

00:40:02.000 Not an IQ test.

00:40:04.000 You can only vote, all votes are right in from now on.

00:40:07.000 That solves all of the problems.

00:40:09.000 No spelling errors.

00:40:09.000 What if it's a D?

00:40:10.000 No spelling errors.

00:40:12.000 If you're trying to vote for Obama and you put Obama, then I'm sorry, that's one vote for Obama. 1.00

00:40:19.000 You've got all those lefty women that are like all in college and all brainwashed, and they will definitely spell things correctly and be like hyper aware. 1.00

00:40:27.000 And that's allowed, but guess what? 1.00

00:40:30.000 No, women should just not be. 1.00

00:40:31.000 No, no, no. 0.96

00:40:31.000 The reason why Democrats would lose is because if you had to name your candidate, Democrats cannot. 0.96

00:40:38.000 Republicans in general, both Democrat and Republican, otherwise, vote based on party.

00:40:44.000 But I guarantee you, there are more Republican voters who can name the candidate they want and why they want them than Democrats who can name the candidate they want.

00:40:51.000 For, I think that's true for vice president and down.

00:40:54.000 They've done studies on this where, on the whole, there's a negligible IQ difference between Republicans and Democrats.

00:41:00.000 But you can go through crosstabs and that sort of thing.

00:41:03.000 And that's where you do see some differences where Republicans typically have about a two point advantage as far as verbal IQ goes.

00:41:09.000 And that's reflected in how effective Republicans are at talk radio.

00:41:13.000 Podcasting, et cetera, et cetera.

00:41:15.000 That is just something they're more receptive to.

00:41:17.000 But like both parties, especially the Democrats, have a much larger coalition of like IQ variation.

00:41:23.000 I would say the Democrats are actually more extreme where they probably have the highest IQ and the lowest IQ people in the same.

00:41:27.000 Oh, I got to tell. 1.00

00:41:28.000 Well, it's mental illness. 0.94

00:41:29.000 Yeah.

00:41:30.000 You've ever taken SSRIs, your anxiety, depression, you're out. 0.94

00:41:30.000 Mental illness. 0.94

00:41:35.000 Here's the problem.

00:41:36.000 That's weed too.

00:41:39.000 They will take you by force and they will tell you you're 5150 and you can never vote again.

00:41:43.000 I don't care.

00:41:45.000 No, that's not true.

00:41:45.000 Right.

00:41:46.000 So, which political faction is more willing to falsely accuse the other of mental illness to stop them from voting?

00:41:50.000 They are to us, but still.

00:41:52.000 Indeed.

00:41:53.000 I think we need to do deepfake tests where you watch three videos and you're like, which one is the deepfake?

00:41:58.000 Or you have to watch five.

00:41:59.000 And if you can identify the deepfake, you can vote for it.

00:42:00.000 Having to name the candidate you want to vote for.

00:42:02.000 No, it's not.

00:42:04.000 Having a king.

00:42:05.000 This would solve all these problems. 0.98

00:42:06.000 If they had a crazy king. 0.97

00:42:06.000 No, it wouldn't. 0.97

00:42:08.000 It wouldn't because what would happen is the king would have a son who's retarded and Muslim. 0.99

00:42:13.000 No, you wouldn't have to. 1.00

00:42:14.000 You would have it like kind of like. 1.00

00:42:16.000 Like the Romans did. 0.93

00:42:17.000 You don't have it necessarily.

00:42:18.000 It's a king, and then when he dies, you re elect a new one.

00:42:19.000 Yes, yeah.

00:42:20.000 Oh, like a, what do they call those things? 0.93

00:42:23.000 An elected monarchy.

00:42:24.000 Yes, elected, yeah.

00:42:25.000 Well, you could have what they call anarchy means single authority, an elected monarch means they serve till they die.

00:42:30.000 There's one thing where you can do where you have an emperor that appoints the king.

00:42:33.000 I like that, too, because what's his face wasn't going to appoint their own kids, and you should just say you can't have your kids.

00:42:38.000 You could have an elected monarchy, but they get banned from the king.

00:42:39.000 I think the idea is if you.

00:42:41.000 They're appointing each other instead of.

00:42:43.000 After you hold office, you get exiled to the island.

00:42:47.000 I like that.

00:42:48.000 I want no lobbying.

00:42:49.000 I want so much.

00:42:51.000 Say what?

00:42:51.000 Somebody has all authority.

00:42:52.000 It's an island?

00:42:53.000 No.

00:42:53.000 How are you going to lobby?

00:42:55.000 They hold all the power already.

00:42:56.000 The United States does, and I guess we have Guantanamo, but we need like a separate penal colony because like the British had St. Helena and they exiled Napoleon there after they defeated him. 0.54

00:43:04.000 Like that would have been awesome to stick Maduro on an island with like Cuba. 0.52

00:43:08.000 Let's take Cuba and turn it into a penal colony.

00:43:11.000 I think that'd be nice. 0.97

00:43:12.000 And then you can do this if you just have five misdemeanors because it's like, okay, the average person might pick up a misdemeanor.

00:43:12.000 That'd be great.

00:43:17.000 At some point.

00:43:18.000 But if you have five, that indicates you have extremely antisocial behavior.

00:43:20.000 But we can't necessarily justify throwing you in federal prison.

00:43:23.000 So we should just exile you to get you.

00:43:24.000 No, here's what we do. 1.00

00:43:26.000 Here's what we do.

00:43:28.000 So there's petty infractions, misdemeanors, felonies.

00:43:31.000 So the way we do it is if you get three felonies, you're exiled.

00:43:35.000 Can we cut your hand?

00:43:37.000 Sorry. 0.88

00:43:40.000 Cut your hand pay casino. 1.00

00:43:42.000 Handmaidens' tail.

00:43:43.000 So here's how it works. 1.00

00:43:44.000 Cut the handmaidens' tail. 0.96

00:43:45.000 If you get three petty offenses, those count as one misdemeanor.

00:43:50.000 So, a petty offense is like not returning a library book or jaywalking.

00:43:54.000 If you do three of those, it counts towards one misdemeanor. 0.60

00:43:56.000 That's fair. 0.70

00:43:57.000 If you get one misdemeanor, it's a misdemeanor.

00:43:59.000 If you get one felony, it's a felony.

00:44:00.000 So, if you get three misdemeanors, those count as a felony.

00:44:04.000 So, that means nine misdemeanors and you're exiled.

00:44:07.000 And that would mean that what is the math in this one?

00:44:10.000 So, three times nine?

00:44:12.000 Twenty seven.

00:44:14.000 Twenty seven petty offenses and you're exiled permanently. 0.50

00:44:17.000 We need like the Palantir punch card.

00:44:19.000 You jaywalk five times.

00:44:20.000 You just get exiled to Cuba.

00:44:21.000 Right. 1.00

00:44:22.000 That's Chinese, dude. 1.00

00:44:23.000 We're going to need to, you know, we got to manage this. 1.00

00:44:23.000 That's that social shit. 1.00

00:44:26.000 It's like your ID has like a bunch of holes in the bottom, and the cop just punches a hole and says, Oh, one more, I'm done. 1.00

00:44:32.000 Don't worry.

00:44:33.000 When you get exiled, you get a free yogurt on the way out.

00:44:36.000 I'm not chaotic, but I'm on the side of chaos when it comes to like obsessive order.

00:44:40.000 I'm trying to read the chat.

00:44:42.000 You're trying to read, but just do the volume down.

00:44:44.000 If you check out 27 books from the library and don't return them, you get life in prison.

00:44:50.000 I'd be in prison.

00:44:52.000 That's evil.

00:44:52.000 That's fair.

00:44:53.000 That is evil, not returning a library.

00:44:54.000 I'm sorry.

00:44:55.000 I do, but it's amazing.

00:44:56.000 But if you consistently do that, have you guys been to a library recently?

00:44:59.000 No, it's horrible.

00:45:00.000 It's Blockbuster.

00:45:00.000 It's just.

00:45:01.000 It's Blockbuster.

00:45:02.000 They have movies.

00:45:04.000 The library here in Winchester, you walk in and they have a movie section.

00:45:08.000 It's amazing. 1.00

00:45:08.000 Every library I've gone to in the last five years, besides like, you know, your big main one in your city, is just for homeless people to jerk off. 1.00

00:45:15.000 Of the computers.

00:45:15.000 That is the primary function of a library.

00:45:17.000 I go to a very small neighborhood one where it's there, that there's no riffraff like that there. 1.00

00:45:17.000 Brutal. 1.00

00:45:22.000 Although they do like, you know, the queer pride stuff, and my brother always like attacks whoever is. 1.00

00:45:27.000 We should get rid of libraries. 1.00

00:45:28.000 I used to go check out the.

00:45:30.000 Library desks.

00:45:31.000 What are libraries for? 1.00

00:45:33.000 You commie? 1.00

00:45:34.000 I just like libraries or communism.

00:45:34.000 I'm not a commie.

00:45:36.000 Yeah, that's fair.

00:45:37.000 I buy all my stuff now anyway because I do have a problem returning books.

00:45:40.000 The internet has information for free.

00:45:43.000 I'm only half kidding about libraries, but it's an honest question.

00:45:45.000 What is a library?

00:45:46.000 What purpose?

00:45:47.000 Does a library serve today?

00:45:48.000 Story.

00:45:48.000 When I was a kid, libraries served a purpose in that if there was a book you needed that someone recommended, you want to check it out.

00:45:57.000 It's basically Blockbuster for books.

00:45:58.000 We use it for school.

00:45:59.000 My kids are rich.

00:46:01.000 Well, we don't need it anymore.

00:46:02.000 So now it's to Tate's point.

00:46:04.000 Libraries today are like, look, I go to the library and I mentioned it's like Blockbuster, but it was just homeless people.

00:46:09.000 Not everybody, but the idea is we've created a space where we are sinking money to the benefit of people, not to the good standing citizenry of our towns.

00:46:20.000 It is to the derelict.

00:46:22.000 And look, there's big signs everywhere saying, don't feed the animals, they become dependent.

00:46:29.000 It's one thing when we were like, hey guys, we should put a library.

00:46:31.000 Imagine you live in a town of 50 people and you all go, we should build a library together.

00:46:36.000 And you all hug, and then you build a library and everyone's friends.

00:46:39.000 Now we build libraries and derelict people show up and start using our spaces in ways we didn't want them to do.

00:46:45.000 I mean, I remember my local library when I lived in Queens, it was literally the entirety of the people using it.

00:46:45.000 It's very true.

00:46:52.000 Was the homeless and Hasidic Jews. 1.00

00:46:54.000 Those were the only two people that used this place. 0.99

00:46:56.000 It was like the most bizarre thing going in there, watching the Hasidics go at it with the homeless, like fighting over their kids. 0.99

00:47:01.000 It's so funny because I'm deep in Philly and we don't, like the little one I go to, I go to like Donatucci, right? 1.00

00:47:06.000 And like whatever.

00:47:06.000 There's still some good.

00:47:07.000 Little in the suburbs, primarily.

00:47:09.000 We just don't have that.

00:47:11.000 Where I live now, I live out in the burbs and there's a library and it's actually quite useful.

00:47:15.000 And there's a lot of young children there.

00:47:16.000 It's clearly providing value to these people.

00:47:20.000 I stopped.

00:47:20.000 But the city libraries these days are literally just a city.

00:47:23.000 1995, I stopped going to libraries.

00:47:25.000 When the internet appeared, I was like, they're redundant.

00:47:27.000 Now, kind of.

00:47:27.000 I mean, like, so my daughter goes to a classical school, Christian classical school, both my kids, and they'll get assigned a book.

00:47:33.000 And I don't want to pay $5 every time I need a book, right?

00:47:36.000 And so we'll go and get that specific book out.

00:47:39.000 You can't get it online.

00:47:40.000 You can't get an audio book.

00:47:41.000 I mean, they're classics for the most part, some of them, like young kid classics.

00:47:46.000 And then I have to, like, go get the book out of the library.

00:47:48.000 That's true.

00:47:49.000 I went to the library in college.

00:47:50.000 I would go sit at the library and I just do stuff.

00:47:52.000 I want to ruminate on this because it was quiet.

00:47:54.000 I'm telling you, the most entertaining thing on planet Earth was watching. 1.00

00:47:58.000 Hasidics and homeless people. 1.00

00:48:00.000 I know. 1.00

00:48:00.000 I'm still thinking about it. 1.00

00:48:01.000 You mentioned it.

00:48:01.000 Like, I want to see it.

00:48:03.000 So, I mean, the funniest thing you've ever seen.

00:48:05.000 Like, the frustration was powerful.

00:48:07.000 Yeah, they're both just agitated.

00:48:08.000 One guy's on drugs, one guy doesn't speak English.

00:48:10.000 And it is just confusion, anger.

00:48:13.000 It's kind of like an academic Waffle House. 1.00

00:48:15.000 And then the librarians there, like, hey, shit. 1.00

00:48:17.000 The librarians quiet out of it. 1.00

00:48:18.000 They don't tell them to quiet out of it.

00:48:20.000 We need to nationalize Waffle House, replace libraries with Waffle House.

00:48:23.000 You used to go play mansion.

00:48:24.000 The only place I've ever witnessed a shooting in my entire life was at a Waffle House, it was at a parking lot.

00:48:28.000 And the shooting is the spirit airlines of shooting happens.

00:48:30.000 The guy's like choking on his own blood.

00:48:31.000 The employees go back and get back to work.

00:48:33.000 Like they didn't close, they're like, mop it up, get waffles and make.

00:48:37.000 And you're like, there's a man dying, and they're like, eh?

00:48:39.000 And you're like, aren't you concerned?

00:48:40.000 Like, what happens all the time?

00:48:41.000 Well, yeah, because I stayed inside.

00:48:42.000 I was in like West Memphis, Arkansas, like a scary place to begin with.

00:48:46.000 And so I just stayed inside and we just continued dining and the ambulance came in and they slapped the guy and took him out of there.

00:48:51.000 And I was like, wow, this place.

00:48:52.000 That's the only thing I've ever witnessed like a couple of violent people.

00:48:54.000 I should, I. Homeless people going to the library because we used to play magic at the library because we didn't have anywhere to play it. 0.99

00:48:59.000 And then they would be like, you guys can't play this here. 1.00

00:49:01.000 Because there's public indecency laws.

00:49:02.000 So they go to the library so they won't get charged.

00:49:04.000 And then we had to, we figured it out though.

00:49:06.000 I used to use the library all the time.

00:49:06.000 We were being too loud.

00:49:08.000 When I was 18, you do what?

00:49:10.000 I'd go to the library to use the internet.

00:49:12.000 I haven't checked a book out.

00:49:13.000 This is before cell phones.

00:49:14.000 So, like, I had a phone, but it was a candy bar, Nokia, with snake on it.

00:49:19.000 So, if I want to use, like, if I was, like, leaving work and I need to use a computer, I'd go to the library.

00:49:23.000 Yeah, massive in college.

00:49:25.000 Library computers.

00:49:25.000 Right, massive.

00:49:26.000 Yeah, because now with eBay and with PDFs online, like, a book is going to be five bucks.

00:49:30.000 Like, I do your.

00:49:30.000 Or Audible.

00:49:32.000 Nah, books are free now on ChatGPT.

00:49:34.000 Yeah, like, or you can just grab a PDF.

00:49:36.000 You can literally just go on ChatGPT and say, write me chapter one of, like, a book.

00:49:40.000 So, I didn't know that.

00:49:42.000 So, like, let's say someone says, I need you to study physics.

00:49:44.000 So, go, okay, you can go to any LLM and be like, Claude's much better.

00:49:49.000 Claude will write a whole book for you.

00:49:51.000 You can go to Claude and say, Write me a 13 chapter book on intro to physics.

00:49:55.000 And it'll go, Okay.

00:49:56.000 And it'll do it.

00:49:56.000 And then it'll give you a PDF and done.

00:49:59.000 Yeah, dude.

00:50:00.000 I mean, the idea of building where knowledge is stored is still pretty cool.

00:50:06.000 Data centers grow.

00:50:07.000 Data centers.

00:50:08.000 Data centers.

00:50:09.000 Yeah.

00:50:09.000 So you can turn data centers into a computer.

00:50:10.000 Yeah, but then you can, like, that's probably how we got, we lost a lot of technology.

00:50:16.000 Because the power went out.

00:50:17.000 Yeah, like, you lose it all.

00:50:19.000 Oh, we're cooked.

00:50:20.000 It's over.

00:50:20.000 I mean, the The future of this planet, of humanity, is we're going to be like, it's, you know, Wally where everyone's fat.

00:50:27.000 That's wishful thinking. 1.00

00:50:28.000 We're going to be morbidly obese sitting in pods, plugged into the machine, brainless and dumb. 1.00

00:50:33.000 Yeah, I feel like that. 1.00

00:50:34.000 Listen, listen.

00:50:36.000 There's an important thing you got to understand with technology.

00:50:39.000 When we invent something to do a task for us, we lose the ability to do that task.

00:50:43.000 So the reason why guys used to have much higher testosterone back in the day is because they were lifting things all the time.

00:50:48.000 You were working on a farm, you were lifting and moving stuff.

00:50:51.000 So, guys were much more likely to be thin and fit.

00:50:53.000 It's the difference between.

00:50:54.000 Now we don't.

00:50:55.000 So, what happens is testosterone has gone down, lift capacity has gone down. 0.98

00:50:59.000 We've begun to outsource our thinking to artificial intelligence, which means if this trajectory continues, you are going to have gaunt or chubby, thin boned people who are real dumb outsourcing. 0.96

00:51:13.000 And then eventually they just don't exist. 0.98

00:51:14.000 There's no reason for losing their thinking.

00:51:16.000 Well, I think we're more approaching a great filter where it's just people with agency versus people without agency.

00:51:20.000 And I would estimate maybe 10, 20% of the population has agency.

00:51:22.000 So, I think the future is actually.

00:51:25.000 Kind of what we're seeing now on steroids, where you have 80% of the population, they probably won't get fat because of Ozempic, but they're just going to be effectively, they're going to take the buyout from AI.

00:51:36.000 What if that was the point of mass vaccination?

00:51:40.000 People without agency gleefully took multiple doses, and people with agency refused.

00:51:45.000 I think your difference, you're looking at kids that play with Legos versus kids that play with Minecraft.

00:51:49.000 You got to have your kids have the hands on, they need the resistance to feel it pull against gravity when they move things to build muscle memory.

00:51:56.000 And then the other kids, it's just like the digital observation is like that will drive people.

00:52:00.000 Well, I think we can, I think we have like a case study over the last 60 years where technology has emerged that, again, people without agency end up utilizing it for entertainment.

00:52:08.000 People with agency utilize it to advance their career in some way.

00:52:11.000 The internet's a great example of this.

00:52:12.000 So I think AI, for 20% of the people, they'll utilize it as a tool to make more money and et cetera, et cetera.

00:52:17.000 80% will primarily use it for entertainment or fun.

00:52:19.000 Everyone's taking the buyout, bro.

00:52:20.000 I'm going to tell you this.

00:52:21.000 What do you think?

00:52:23.000 I guarantee you, everybody else in the room, I guarantee you this.

00:52:26.000 I will wager money.

00:52:27.000 The moment we get non surgically invasive Neuralink, Meaning, you put on a headband and it projects experiences into your mind.

00:52:36.000 Ian's gone.

00:52:36.000 You'll never see him again.

00:52:39.000 He's like, maybe, maybe that's true.

00:52:39.000 He's gone.

00:52:41.000 Bro, I'm telling you, when they release neural video games where you plug a headset into your computer and put on the band, and then instantly you feel as if you are physically in Dungeons and Dragons, Ian's gone.

00:52:55.000 Ian is going to be like a necromancer.

00:52:58.000 Well, it's funny because people are like, what if this becomes compulsory?

00:53:02.000 I'm like, they don't need to because 80% of the population will just purchase it.

00:53:05.000 Well, no job.

00:53:06.000 They have to make the internet compulsory.

00:53:08.000 For about 15 years, I've been on the precipice of one or the other.

00:53:11.000 I will dive into the neural.

00:53:13.000 He's gone.

00:53:14.000 And just evaporate, or I will stay here and build new things.

00:53:17.000 But I can't decide.

00:53:18.000 I'm like, hold on.

00:53:20.000 It's not this.

00:53:21.000 The only outcome is not Ian locking himself away in a matrix pod, shriveling up.

00:53:26.000 It's going to be there's a dude in California who skateboards, and there's going to be a homie who lives in New York who skateboards. 0.67

00:53:33.000 And they're going to be like, hey, do you want to go to Stoner Skate Park? 0.70

00:53:37.000 And they'll be like, sure.

00:53:38.000 And they both put on their headsets and they get projected into a physical skate park where they're skating with their friends.

00:53:43.000 If I had kids, I would want to stay here and build.

00:53:43.000 Because I don't have kids.

00:53:46.000 See them learn, but I'm obsessed with learning.

00:53:49.000 We'll have kids.

00:53:50.000 Okay, then I will stay here.

00:53:51.000 But if I don't have kids, in the machine.

00:53:53.000 In the machine, whatever, I could pretend, but like I love learning.

00:53:56.000 I want to learn.

00:53:56.000 So I will go into the machine to learn a million trillion things and just stay there forever.

00:54:01.000 But that's like you got to apply it too.

00:54:03.000 Like I want to come back and apply it to this version of reality.

00:54:06.000 Like if I had kids, I'd be here helping them learn.

00:54:08.000 You're going to go in the machine where you're going to meet a beautiful dragon born mistress.

00:54:14.000 You're going to have a child with her and you're going to be like, I don't like spending time away from my kids. 0.96

00:54:18.000 Full sensory perception.

00:54:20.000 This future that we're outlining, we're basically saying the fear here is that a large proportion of the population will primarily become consumers and that they will cease to leave a mark on the world.

00:54:29.000 How is that any different than the current situation we're in now?

00:54:31.000 I would say the value of people.

00:54:33.000 We already have UBI.

00:54:33.000 So, what I'm saying is.

00:54:34.000 Exactly.

00:54:35.000 I'm saying as AI.

00:54:36.000 Less death threats.

00:54:37.000 Let's just say top projections of what AI becomes.

00:54:39.000 Like, let's say it truly does become this kind of Wally style universe.

00:54:43.000 I don't think the dynamics of the world will change that much.

00:54:45.000 I don't think so.

00:54:46.000 Whereas the majority of people will still continue to behave as they have now, which is leaving zero mark on the world, primarily consuming, and really not.

00:54:46.000 I think a lot of people will.

00:54:52.000 Shake like in the past, the people that you would say were not movers and shakers, they were still building things.

00:54:57.000 They would build a wall, they would build a farm, and that would exist, and they would have children, and that would pass along to them.

00:55:01.000 But what we've seen over the last 60 years is that sort of continuation is completely broken.

00:55:05.000 So, AI, all this is going to do is drive that in steroids.

00:55:07.000 Let me just say this for you know, we've talked about on the show, but with Lisa here, we already have UBI, right? 0.99

00:55:12.000 Do you think UBI is bad, universal basic income?

00:55:14.000 Yeah, I don't like it.

00:55:15.000 I know, I agree.

00:55:15.000 We already have it.

00:55:16.000 The, the, like, imagine going back 200 years, you and explaining your job to a guy, he'd be like, you do what?

00:55:23.000 What does your family do to make money?

00:55:24.000 And you're like, I reach out to communicate with people to ask them to come and have conversations.

00:55:28.000 And you'd be like, What?

00:55:29.000 What?

00:55:29.000 What do you mean?

00:55:31.000 Well, we have a table where people gather on and talk.

00:55:34.000 And it's like, How do you make money?

00:55:36.000 People pay to watch, I guess.

00:55:38.000 They pay you to watch.

00:55:39.000 Well, actually, it's free to watch, but other companies want to be involved.

00:55:43.000 So they pay us to mention them before we talk.

00:55:46.000 And it's going to be like, Well, where does the food come from?

00:55:50.000 Oh, like patronage.

00:55:50.000 Machines make it.

00:55:52.000 They did kind of have patronage back then.

00:55:53.000 And they would have.

00:55:54.000 Performances, so maybe they'll be like, Oh, well, UBI functionally is just an ex, all you're doing functionally is extending welfare to all.

00:56:02.000 So we already have functional UBI, but for the people that are not net contributors, the elderly, and then the people that are just incompetent and can't be.

00:56:08.000 If I went back 400 years, like if let's imagine this whole room just teleported 400 years back, we're dead.

00:56:15.000 I don't know, I don't necessarily know if that's true.

00:56:17.000 I don't think that would be okay.

00:56:18.000 No, we're cooked because people would want to be involved.

00:56:20.000 We've got a bunch of guys whose skills are related to create creative works, which don't help anybody survive.

00:56:26.000 Wait, no, no.

00:56:26.000 I mean, we could create Leonardo da Vinci.

00:56:28.000 You know that I'm like a huge, I do all the millwork in my house.

00:56:32.000 I build.

00:56:33.000 I do all that.

00:56:34.000 I can build. 1.00

00:56:35.000 When the slavers come in, they'll be like, We got a bunch of dainty Nancy boys and a mill wench. 0.95

00:56:42.000 Like, seriously.

00:56:44.000 And I garden.

00:56:45.000 I definitely garden. 1.00

00:56:46.000 Well, first, I get killed for being mixed race. 1.00

00:56:49.000 Ian is too frail, so he's chucked into a ditch. 0.98

00:56:52.000 I'd be in Tate later.

00:56:53.000 Tate is appointed chieftain because he's young and 12 feet tall.

00:56:57.000 I'd be a concubine.

00:56:58.000 I'd be like a baby making machine, which I'm fine with.

00:57:01.000 I know.

00:57:02.000 I'm one of the only winners in this potential.

00:57:04.000 Half the country would die.

00:57:06.000 Half the country would die.

00:57:07.000 They live in the sunbelt.

00:57:08.000 It depends on the country. 1.00

00:57:09.000 I teleported to like the French. 0.99

00:57:11.000 Yeah, let's move 20 million people to Florida. 0.61

00:57:13.000 I would do well in like a royal court, but in like a peasantry thing, I'd just get bored and want to die.

00:57:13.000 I think that's a good idea.

00:57:19.000 I don't think you would.

00:57:20.000 I think that Ian would walk up to like the slave driver and he'd be like, You got any lentils?

00:57:26.000 Do you know what I did? 0.98

00:57:27.000 And it would be like, Shut up, whack. 0.99

00:57:30.000 I'm kidding. 0.98

00:57:31.000 Like 400 years ago, it was not like that.

00:57:32.000 It would be awesome.

00:57:33.000 In between here and my last job, there was like a couple months, right?

00:57:38.000 I went and worked on a farm.

00:57:38.000 Do you know what I did?

00:57:40.000 I literally worked on a farm.

00:57:41.000 I got paid $10 an hour.

00:57:42.000 And I worked with.

00:57:42.000 Right.

00:57:43.000 You could be a horse inseminator.

00:57:45.000 I was literally like shoving and mucking out stalls, feeding the animals, doing all kinds of stuff like that.

00:57:50.000 Did you ever see how they do cows?

00:57:52.000 With a big glove.

00:57:52.000 Yeah.

00:57:53.000 They put a big glove.

00:57:54.000 I know how to do it.

00:57:54.000 Yeah, that's right.

00:57:55.000 They do horses the same way.

00:57:56.000 But so, and I've done all that like that hard work.

00:57:59.000 By the way, it is way more fulfilling.

00:58:03.000 You do all that.

00:58:04.000 I agree.

00:58:04.000 Your body is tired by the end of the day, but you get this like, I don't know.

00:58:09.000 I got to be real.

00:58:10.000 Like if we were transported 400 years ago, what would happen is like this room would be a weird demonic.

00:58:16.000 Temple or whatever, we'd walk out and there'd be like local people being like, Who are you? and like, What work can you do?

00:58:21.000 I would instantly become like the head chicken farmer.

00:58:24.000 They would bow before me.

00:58:25.000 They would be like, You're a chicken.

00:58:27.000 It sounds like Timeline by Michael Crichton, which is a great book. 1.00

00:58:29.000 400 years ago, it'd be all Indians around here. 1.00

00:58:31.000 That's what I'm saying. 0.99

00:58:33.000 Show them the firearm and they'd be like, Yeah, so 400 years ago, it mattered. 1.00

00:58:36.000 We're taking this country away from the Europeans. 1.00

00:58:39.000 It mattered more where you were.

00:58:40.000 It was a lot more different in different areas 400 years ago.

00:58:43.000 Now things are homogenized, so you can kind of do the same job in everywhere in the world. 0.66

00:58:48.000 400 years ago, it's like, were you in Paris or were you in the farms of Bulgaria?

00:58:52.000 400 years ago, it wasn't Indian where we are now.

00:58:54.000 If reincarnation is a thing, I definitely was alive during the 1820s to the 1860s.

00:59:02.000 100%. 1.00

00:59:03.000 You're a millwench. 1.00

00:59:05.000 I definitely would have been. 1.00

00:59:06.000 What if?

00:59:07.000 Something weird there.

00:59:07.000 Just saying.

00:59:09.000 I was alive then.

00:59:10.000 You were alive then, huh?

00:59:11.000 If you believe, if I don't really believe in reincarnation, but if you believe in it.

00:59:13.000 Yeah, I don't know how it works because I think your spirit existed across all time in everybody.

00:59:19.000 And now it's hyper centralized in you right now.

00:59:22.000 I believe in God and purgatory. 1.00

00:59:23.000 Ian's going to come back after he dies, he's going to come back as a Jew. 1.00

00:59:26.000 I hope so. 1.00

00:59:27.000 I hope I was a Jew in the past. 0.96

00:59:28.000 He joined the winning party.

00:59:29.000 I hope I was Jesus, dude, but we were all Jesus.

00:59:32.000 Bro, they would lock you up in two seconds in 1789 for blasphemy.

00:59:37.000 If I wanted to.

00:59:38.000 You'd be like, I love the Bill of Rights.

00:59:39.000 They'd be like, well, your jail cell's right here, blasphemy. 0.73

00:59:40.000 If you were in China, you could start a rebellion if you claimed you were the.

00:59:44.000 Yeah, and you could be a boxer.

00:59:45.000 I was Lu Bei, dude.

00:59:46.000 Lu Bei. 0.95

00:59:47.000 I was Chokuliang. 0.97

00:59:49.000 I invented the whole thing.

00:59:50.000 Sat on the wall playing the lute to trick.

00:59:52.000 The guy, you know that story, right, with Choko Liang? 0.70

00:59:55.000 He opened the gates and played the loot. 0.73

00:59:56.000 So when the enemy army came, they thought it was a trap and fled.

00:59:58.000 That guy had balls of steel.

00:59:59.000 He was a farmer, he and his brothers, and then he just didn't want to participate with the war at all, but they begged him.

01:00:04.000 Liu Bei went and begged him, and then he went three times. 0.65

01:00:06.000 He kept coming back, and finally, Choko Liang was like, All right, he met him, and he was like, I like you, and I think it's the least worst option. 0.86

01:00:12.000 I'll get involved.

01:00:13.000 They called him the Sleeping Dragon.

01:00:14.000 And when he awoke, he led a nation, but still they lost.

01:00:18.000 It's a great story, the Three Kingdoms.

01:00:20.000 When I'm on, we always get into like way more philosophical conversations than usual.

01:00:26.000 I feel like we're always.

01:00:27.000 Ian's going to come back as a lone star tick so he can take away people's ability to eat.

01:00:31.000 Dude, that is bad.

01:00:32.000 This is terrifying.

01:00:33.000 No way.

01:00:33.000 And it's not permanent, by the way, the loan.

01:00:35.000 Yeah, it's between one and five years. 0.56

01:00:36.000 Ian, a genie would come to him to be like, I want to come back, but I want to be Jewish. 0.97

01:00:40.000 And they'd be like, Well, grant your wish.

01:00:41.000 And you come back in 1939.

01:00:44.000 Oops. 0.77

01:00:45.000 I'd be down to come back.

01:00:46.000 You should have specified the year.

01:00:48.000 You should have your property straight for ticks.

01:00:50.000 Yeah, we do.

01:00:50.000 Okay, good.

01:00:50.000 And we have Guinea Fowl.

01:00:52.000 Those things are dumb. 1.00

01:00:52.000 Guinea Fowl homes. 1.00

01:00:54.000 I wear like a raincoat with a hood because I'm so afraid of the ticks.

01:00:57.000 Dude, I kind of want to be like Cybertech Jesus now.

01:00:59.000 Like, so I got a comment in 2007.

01:01:02.000 There's Encyclopedia Dramatica.

01:01:04.000 It's this website where they were like, maybe they'd be like, he's like Cybok Jesus on the.

01:01:07.000 Because I was like, Trying to get my mind into, yeah.

01:01:10.000 Cybok is like a Star Trek reference, I think.

01:01:12.000 What are those little bugs that weevils?

01:01:15.000 So there were a bunch of weevils all over the place, but there were people cute ones, yeah.

01:01:20.000 But people they're called weevils, I guess.

01:01:22.000 And people didn't know that they weren't ticks, they thought they were ticks, I'd freaking out and smashing them.

01:01:25.000 Oh, they're like, oh, there's ticks everywhere.

01:01:27.000 And it's like, and then they found out those were just weevils.

01:01:30.000 Maybe I'm overcomplicating life, you guys.

01:01:32.000 I thought weevils look like little grubs.

01:01:34.000 I haven't been paying no, weevils look like ticks.

01:01:36.000 I'm like, if it happens, yeah, I'm just thinking about kids and like having the simple life where you sit outside and you watch the kids play and like weevils.

01:01:43.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:01:43.000 They have that funny snap.

01:01:44.000 They don't look like ticks, but they don't, you know.

01:01:47.000 It's like half the time they're a tick.

01:01:50.000 And so there were a bunch of them, and they were like black ones, and they were like all over the place out here.

01:01:55.000 And everyone was freaking out about ticks.

01:01:56.000 So they were like, dah, and spraying.

01:01:58.000 People are.

01:01:59.000 They're completely harmless.

01:02:00.000 That's a little sad that people don't know.

01:02:01.000 Evils.

01:02:02.000 You have some seriously dangerous looking bugs here, but like they're harmless.

01:02:06.000 I was bit by a lime tick when I was young.

01:02:08.000 I got the bullseye on my arm and all.

01:02:10.000 I got a pool, and I got.

01:02:10.000 I pulled it out.

01:02:11.000 Did you get Lyme disease?

01:02:12.000 No.

01:02:13.000 I took, they gave me like, Lots of deoxycycline.

01:02:15.000 I got one tick in my armpit about a year and a half ago.

01:02:18.000 It was crazy.

01:02:19.000 And I got it.

01:02:20.000 It was like all dried out.

01:02:21.000 I was like, what is that?

01:02:22.000 That visual.

01:02:23.000 Pulled it out.

01:02:23.000 I'm not loving it.

01:02:24.000 It was dead?

01:02:25.000 No, I think it was still living.

01:02:26.000 It was like, tried to burrow into me while I was pulling it out.

01:02:28.000 I like twisted it and got it out.

01:02:31.000 They don't. 1.00

01:02:31.000 They stick their mouth in and they suck and then they get all big. 1.00

01:02:34.000 They definitely do burrow though. 0.96

01:02:35.000 He was trying to.

01:02:36.000 They say you're not.

01:02:37.000 Yeah, they sit their heads in and drink your blood.

01:02:38.000 They say you're not supposed to stress them out because they'll spit back in.

01:02:43.000 And that's how you get.

01:02:44.000 The Alpha Gale.

01:02:45.000 Do you like play music for him and calm him down?

01:02:47.000 You're supposed to.

01:02:48.000 Well, I agree.

01:02:49.000 Fast check man, this one.

01:02:49.000 Don't.

01:02:50.000 Don't take this advice, but I watched a thing where they said you put tweezers as far down as you can and pinch until it gives up and pulls out to get away.

01:02:59.000 But if you like take a lighter or a heat source, it'll freak out and spit everything into you.

01:03:05.000 That stresses it out and it spits the gunk into you.

01:03:07.000 You can, I think, tie a little string around it too and then twist it slowly and that'll kind of get it out.

01:03:12.000 Give it like a little massage.

01:03:13.000 Yeah, rubbing some back.

01:03:14.000 Rub his.

01:03:14.000 I'm like, or what if he just blasted?

01:03:16.000 Some of them are almost like microscopic.

01:03:19.000 They look like lice or something.

01:03:20.000 They're like that little.

01:03:21.000 They're like super small.

01:03:23.000 Oh, the little ticks.

01:03:24.000 You can negotiate with it.

01:03:25.000 You could have a conversation and be like, listen, I'll give you.

01:03:28.000 I'll find you some food.

01:03:30.000 $14 and I'll take you to McDonald's.

01:03:31.000 I don't even know.

01:03:31.000 I'll take you to the blood bank right now.

01:03:33.000 You can fill yourself up.

01:03:34.000 I was at a restaurant nearby and it was like a regular old diner and there's a tick walking on the ground. 1.00

01:03:40.000 Freaking crap. 0.99

01:03:41.000 And you can't crush them. 1.00

01:03:43.000 They're flat.

01:03:44.000 They're flat insects.

01:03:45.000 And so I. Took something and I smashed it and just grinded into it back and forth and picked it up and started walking away.

01:03:50.000 Wow. 0.98

01:03:51.000 I was like, holy crap. 1.00

01:03:52.000 You got to stab it. 1.00

01:03:53.000 You got to burn them. 1.00

01:03:54.000 Burn it. 0.99

01:03:55.000 Not if they're on you, though. 0.85

01:03:56.000 If they're on you.

01:03:57.000 It's not my domain.

01:03:58.000 It's true they came from Connecticut and from under auspices.

01:04:01.000 This is the Lyme disease.

01:04:02.000 Ticks have been around forever.

01:04:03.000 But Lyme disease is a conspiracy theory of Lyme disease, Lyme, Connecticut.

01:04:06.000 There's an island off the coast of Lyme, Connecticut where they do biological research and that they were maybe researching a new bioweapon with this disease, Lyme, and then it got infested in the ticks.

01:04:18.000 And then from there, I was the first reported case.

01:04:20.000 Because the first reported case was like on Mung Island, right?

01:04:22.000 Like right across the.

01:04:23.000 Okay, maybe right across the Mung Island.

01:04:25.000 There's a name of the island.

01:04:27.000 If you can pull it up, ChatGPT will know.

01:04:30.000 Little St. James, maybe.

01:04:32.000 What's the name of the island off of Lyme, Connecticut, where they think Lyme disease originated?

01:04:37.000 Let's hear this, dude.

01:04:38.000 The island you're thinking of is Shelter Island.

01:04:39.000 Shelter Island.

01:04:40.000 Okay, so we could look up Shelter Island.

01:04:42.000 That's kind of an ominous name to it.

01:04:44.000 Shelter Island. 0.82

01:04:46.000 I love that Tim's trying to kill Bob.

01:04:47.000 And then the Rolling Stones gave me Shelter.

01:04:48.000 They were trying to like.

01:04:49.000 Spiders are based, though.

01:04:50.000 I like spiders.

01:04:51.000 I don't like shelters.

01:04:52.000 Yeah, I love those.

01:04:52.000 It's funny because like I'm at home and I'm just like watching Greg Gutfeld and then I hear a scream and I get up and run and it's like there's this little tiny spider by West.

01:04:59.000 Wait, because here we have like Daddy Long.

01:05:00.000 They're kind of fun.

01:05:01.000 Like I remember when we just have plywooders.

01:05:02.000 But then you meet like all spiders are based.

01:05:04.000 All plywooders are like, yeah, Countries trying to kill spiders are smart too.

01:05:08.000 Like, if they build a web in your walkway, you break the web, you're like, talk to them, be like, Sorry, dude, you can't build here.

01:05:13.000 And then they'll chill and they'll build up in the corner.

01:05:15.000 They want to hang our bad.

01:05:17.000 Sorry, the more relaxed you are, the more.

01:05:18.000 The more spiders and flies, I know what they eat, but like, yeah, they're based.

01:05:22.000 No, they're still disgusting.

01:05:23.000 It's the big ones that are no good.

01:05:24.000 Like, spiders go in the corner and mind their own business, like the ones in Iraq, you know, like a thousand centipedes in Chicago chase you 50,000 years ago.

01:05:31.000 There were giant spiders, like, with the thousand, like the minecart, and you'll be like, you'll be chilling in your living, watching TV, you'll see a centipede, and you'll go, Oh, and it'll just run straight towards you.

01:05:40.000 And then you'll jump over and it'll turn and keep coming, and you're like, get away!

01:05:43.000 Even like, imagine cave diving like 30,000 years ago, and then you're going through like cobwebs, and then you get stuck, and you're like, what the?

01:05:50.000 And then all of a sudden you get a little more stuck, and then a bunch of spiders crawl down and start biting you.

01:05:54.000 I'm not even cave diving.

01:05:55.000 And poisoning you, and then wrapping you up in your.

01:05:57.000 Because they had a.

01:05:58.000 What is that?

01:05:58.000 That's how they lived in shelter.

01:05:59.000 You know, they had a.

01:06:00.000 They find a cave, and then the giant millipede comes up and bites, stings you with poison venom, and you're like, oh, you're like paralyzed.

01:06:00.000 I had a bug conversation.

01:06:07.000 Like, as it wraps you up, you're like, I think that's just Australia. 0.73

01:06:12.000 That's like terror fuel.

01:06:13.000 And that's where these fear of spiders comes from, I think.

01:06:16.000 Because otherwise, they're innocuous.

01:06:17.000 They just chill.

01:06:18.000 Have you heard that?

01:06:18.000 Like, you know how we hate the sound of a knife in the plate?

01:06:22.000 I want to talk about this.

01:06:24.000 We got this from the New York Times.

01:06:26.000 Peter Thiel is fleeing to Argentina.

01:06:29.000 And, you know, with the death threats and the extremism, I think they're seeing the writing on the wall.

01:06:37.000 They literally say in the New York Times that he's concerned about the future of the United States.

01:06:40.000 But there's a lot of people who are like, Let me just put it this way.

01:06:43.000 When the powerful billionaires are like, time to leave the country and they go to Argentina, I think there's something they maybe know that we don't know about.

01:06:50.000 He's German.

01:06:52.000 No, but I mean, Buenos Aires is kind of awesome.

01:06:54.000 It's mountainous.

01:06:55.000 It's South America, but it's higher income. 0.96

01:06:55.000 Baralocha. 0.96

01:06:58.000 There's a lot of nuclear research in Baralocha.

01:07:01.000 If you're trying to hide away from political instability, the last place you would go would be Argentina.

01:07:04.000 They literally have the oscillating government.

01:07:06.000 Yes, but if you're concerned about being murdered by far left extremists, then Argentina is fine.

01:07:11.000 That is literally where the Nazis went after World War II to hide.

01:07:14.000 There was a funny viral video where this woman was like, I'm exploring Argentina.

01:07:14.000 Yeah.

01:07:18.000 I found this beautiful little German village.

01:07:20.000 And the top comment was, No one tell her.

01:07:23.000 I heard that Peter Thiel, it's going to be temporary.

01:07:25.000 He called it a temporary move, Tarzan.

01:07:27.000 Until what?

01:07:28.000 Yeah, until he lays out of office.

01:07:30.000 No, it's temporary until he figures out whether Antifa is going to burn this country down or Trump is going to take it.

01:07:35.000 I think he's probably most concerned about the redistribution policies coming to the United States, specifically in California.

01:07:40.000 And I think what's going on, this is the most prevailing theory that I've accepted.

01:07:42.000 There's a lot of theories going on as to why Thiel skipped the country.

01:07:45.000 Because people are trying to downplay it.

01:07:46.000 They're like, no, he just bought a house there.

01:07:47.000 It's like he's putting his kids in the local school.

01:07:49.000 That's like kind of important here.

01:07:51.000 I think what's going on here is he knows that California is passing this massive redistribution tax.

01:07:56.000 It's going to be a huge tax on billionaires.

01:07:57.000 And he understands that even if he moved to like Virginia or you name it, wherever he moved, Florida, that California will still utilize the banking system to come after his money.

01:08:06.000 So what he's trying to do here, this is the most prevailing theory, and the one I think is probably correct, is if he goes to Argentina, he's under the watch of Mille. 0.71

01:08:13.000 If California comes and tries to audit his Argentinian bank account, Malay can turn it into a wedge issue. 0.94

01:08:18.000 He can say, I'm standing up against the Democrats in the United States. 0.98

01:08:21.000 And then all of a sudden, the Republican Party will be in love with Malay. 0.99

01:08:25.000 I want to show you something scary. 1.00

01:08:26.000 You guys want to see something scary?

01:08:27.000 See Buenos Aires province right here?

01:08:29.000 Buenos Aires, good area.

01:08:30.000 Buenos Aires.

01:08:31.000 I think, right?

01:08:31.000 Good air.

01:08:33.000 See how it's greenish?

01:08:34.000 What do you think?

01:08:34.000 Yes.

01:08:36.000 So the entirety of the province is like basically the same hue.

01:08:41.000 What kind of terrain do you think it is? 1.00

01:08:42.000 Jungle basin?

01:08:43.000 They call it La Pampas.

01:08:44.000 It's like wonderful farming.

01:08:46.000 Oh.

01:08:47.000 It is literally the whole province is one big farm.

01:08:50.000 Whoa.

01:08:50.000 So choose any location and zoom in.

01:08:53.000 And what do you find?

01:08:54.000 All farms.

01:08:55.000 Let's zoom out and go over here.

01:08:56.000 We zoom in.

01:08:57.000 I got a plan.

01:08:57.000 All farms.

01:08:59.000 The reason I bring this up is people don't realize the extent to which the human footprint.

01:09:02.000 So, if you go to like the East Coast right here, there's the Pennsylvania Wilds where you actually still have a lot of trees.

01:09:08.000 Those are great places to drive through.

01:09:09.000 So, you can see here, it's mountainous, so there's trees.

01:09:11.000 You can look at Appalachia and you can see the strip here and there's trees.

01:09:16.000 But for the most part, the entirety of the terrain of the Midwest, you're like, I wonder what that is.

01:09:21.000 Literally, Illinois is one giant farm.

01:09:24.000 That's one gigantic farm with cities.

01:09:27.000 Probably because when the flood occurred, it just flattened it.

01:09:30.000 No, my point is human expansion is much larger than most people consider.

01:09:34.000 Dude, I have this map of the world on my wall, and it's like a couple of nights.

01:09:37.000 I was like thinking about how we, you were saying the other day, the humans would they cherish the human story?

01:09:42.000 Like, we've named the earth, we've cut it into little pieces and called it different things, and that's our human.

01:09:47.000 Why don't we be conquerors again, right? 0.63

01:09:49.000 And take all the based right wing people and go take over some South America farmland? 0.82

01:09:56.000 Bro, we could take Uruguay.

01:09:57.000 They just designated Uruguay's the widest country.

01:10:01.000 Uruguay's the widest country in the Western Hemisphere.

01:10:02.000 So, let's go.

01:10:04.000 They just named two groups in Brazil terrorist organizations. 0.96

01:10:07.000 And it's all farms.

01:10:08.000 You zoom in, there's literally nothing but farms.

01:10:09.000 That's the new thing.

01:10:10.000 Argentina is a fascinating country.

01:10:12.000 It'd be difficult to get you to pin in on it, but there's an entire province called the Chabut province there.

01:10:17.000 And if you zoom in on the town names in the Chabut province, they're all Welsh names.

01:10:20.000 And the reason for that is because in the late 1800s, a lot of Welsh people.

01:10:24.000 Where's that?

01:10:24.000 What province?

01:10:26.000 If you go Rio Negro. 1.00

01:10:27.000 Oh, there it is. 1.00

01:10:28.000 Chabut.

01:10:28.000 And zoom in.

01:10:29.000 That sounds Jewish.

01:10:30.000 Look at some of the town names.

01:10:31.000 Go to the right.

01:10:32.000 There's one called.

01:10:35.000 Rawson.

01:10:36.000 So the reason for that is.

01:10:37.000 Habo Rosso. 0.85

01:10:38.000 That sounds Welsh.

01:10:39.000 In the late 1800s, a lot of Welsh people were fearing the English were displacing their culture.

01:10:44.000 They have a language, the Welsh language.

01:10:45.000 So a lot of them moved to Argentina so they could preserve the Welsh language.

01:10:49.000 Well, they ended up going down there in Patagonia where no one would mess with them because back then there was no transcontinental flights, that sort of thing.

01:10:55.000 And what ended up happening was when the Falkland Wars broke out in 1982, Argentina invaded the Falklands and then Maggie Thatcher came down and destroyed them.

01:11:03.000 What happened was all the Argentinian POWs that were caught in the Falklands were being transported back to Argentina.

01:11:09.000 Now, a lot of the Royal Marines that were escorting these gentlemen back to Argentina, they didn't speak English, the Argentinians, and they didn't speak Spanish.

01:11:17.000 There was a language barrier.

01:11:18.000 Well, there's a story about one of the Royal Marines.

01:11:21.000 He was from Wales and he was trying to communicate with them, and they're like back talking in Spanish or whatever.

01:11:26.000 And then all of a sudden he starts hearing a guy jaw at him in Welsh.

01:11:29.000 And he's like, what?

01:11:30.000 Wait, what?

01:11:31.000 And he keeps talking to him in Welsh.

01:11:31.000 What was that?

01:11:33.000 So it just demonstrates that Argentina is a very European place, but it's just been completely, you know, it's like a backwater in a lot of ways.

01:11:39.000 And so they completely forgot.

01:11:41.000 And then lo and behold, the British come down and they're having an argument in Welsh, like a language that is, you know, has declined massively over the last few years.

01:11:48.000 They say, let the Dems have America.

01:11:49.000 Let's go get our own. 1.00

01:11:50.000 Let's conquer a new territory and just take it.

01:11:52.000 Yeah, but who's going to do the fighting?

01:11:54.000 I will.

01:11:55.000 What?

01:11:56.000 I don't want to fight.

01:11:57.000 If you zoom in on Buenos Aires, there are a lot of neighborhoods that have English names because the Anglo Argentine community was quite expansive there.

01:12:02.000 And there's a massive place.

01:12:04.000 It's crazy.

01:12:04.000 There's a club called the Hurlingham Club, and it's this, like, one of the world's most prestigious polo clubs and bowling clubs in the world.

01:12:10.000 And it's all, like, Anglo Argentines.

01:12:12.000 The city is just, Buenos Aires is massive. 0.98

01:12:14.000 Was it like 16 million in the metro?

01:12:14.000 Yeah.

01:12:16.000 Yeah, it's huge.

01:12:17.000 Buenos Aires.

01:12:18.000 This is all Argentina.

01:12:19.000 And they also had similar dynamics to the United States.

01:12:21.000 They had a lot of illegal immigration coming into the country from like Peru and Bolivia and stuff. 0.98

01:12:24.000 And so part of Malay's campaign was I'm going to get all these illegals out of here. 0.75

01:12:28.000 So they have a lot of the same dynamics to the United States. 0.96

01:12:30.000 What is Argentine?

01:12:32.000 What is the etymology of Argentine?

01:12:34.000 Is that blue?

01:12:35.000 Does that mean blue?

01:12:38.000 Usually they're like derivatives of a native indigenous name.

01:12:41.000 It means something small.

01:12:42.000 Tina means it's a small thing.

01:12:44.000 But yeah, it's a fascinating place.

01:12:46.000 Argentine means silver.

01:12:48.000 So small silver.

01:12:48.000 Maybe there were a lot of silver mines here when they populated it.

01:12:51.000 But yeah, Argentine is silver.

01:12:52.000 I don't know.

01:12:53.000 But remember, it's silver. 0.74

01:12:54.000 Wasn't like the president of Uruguay like some fat old farmer or something? 0.89

01:12:59.000 That checks out. 0.93

01:12:59.000 Uruguay is a very Italian and Spanish place. 0.93

01:13:02.000 Peru is fascinating. 1.00

01:13:02.000 So a lot of Japanese went to South. 1.00

01:13:04.000 America in the late 1800s, early 1900s.

01:13:06.000 And Peru famously had a Japanese president, Alberto Fujimori.

01:13:11.000 And it was really fascinating.

01:13:12.000 A country that had maybe a couple hundred thousand Japanese people, the Japanese were like dominating the elite in Peru.

01:13:17.000 Like the restaurant Nobu, you're familiar with the restaurant Nobu?

01:13:19.000 Yeah.

01:13:20.000 That is actually cuisine from Peru.

01:13:22.000 It's Japanese Peruvian quote unquote fusion because of the Japanese community there.

01:13:26.000 And so Fujimori's daughter is actually like now the head entree.

01:13:28.000 The per capita GDP of Uruguay is 40,000.

01:13:31.000 Yeah.

01:13:32.000 It's a very nice place.

01:13:33.000 There's the etymology of Argentina.

01:13:33.000 Yeah.

01:13:34.000 That's like comparable to the United States.

01:13:36.000 It's, uh, Sierra de la Plata, the Silver Mountain. 0.90

01:13:39.000 And even southern Brazil, so like Santa Catarina and the Sul, is all European. 0.78

01:13:45.000 So those bottom three states there, Parana, Santa Catarina, and Rio Grande do Sul, is all Europeans.

01:13:51.000 And actually, I think it's Santa Catarina has a massive German population.

01:13:55.000 A lot of them still speak German.

01:13:56.000 You may know, but when they were divvying up, when the Europeans were divvying up the conquest of the Western Hemisphere in like the 1400s, 1500s, the Portuguese got the furthest east part of South America, Brazil, basically.

01:14:08.000 And all the other Europeans could colonize everything else.

01:14:10.000 That's why you see that. 0.92

01:14:11.000 What's the biggest city in Uruguay, Montevideo?

01:14:13.000 Yeah.

01:14:14.000 Portugal and Spain were like basically going at it.

01:14:17.000 They're trying to determine who was going to be able to control what.

01:14:19.000 And so they went to the Pope and he said, okay, here's the agreement.

01:14:22.000 Spain basically gets the corners of the world, Portugal gets the middle.

01:14:26.000 So all the colonies in Africa were Portuguese and all the colonies in Asia and South America were Spanish.

01:14:31.000 But there was a sliver that was allocated to the Portuguese, which was Portuguese.

01:14:35.000 Oh, wow.

01:14:35.000 Uruguay is 86% white, 10% black, 6% indigenous.

01:14:39.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:14:40.000 It's a very white place. 0.73

01:14:41.000 And those are like actually more white than the United States. 0.84

01:14:43.000 It's the whitest country in the Western Hemisphere and whiter than most of Europe at this point. 0.82

01:14:43.000 Yep. 0.82

01:14:46.000 Uruguay?

01:14:47.000 Wow.

01:14:48.000 I heard that when I was in the business.

01:14:48.000 Interesting.

01:14:50.000 It's pronounced Uruguay.

01:14:51.000 We were talking about doing a graphene corporation in Uruguay.

01:14:55.000 I don't know why, but apparently it's very favorable to like American immigrants.

01:14:59.000 Yeah, there's a lot of expats. 0.75

01:15:01.000 You know, expat is just a white immigrant. 0.93

01:15:03.000 There's a lot of them in Montevideo. 1.00

01:15:06.000 Have you spent time in the jungle? 0.97

01:15:08.000 In Africa?

01:15:09.000 South African jungle at all?

01:15:10.000 Or South American jungle?

01:15:11.000 I've never been to South America.

01:15:12.000 I've been to Trinidad.

01:15:13.000 It's kind of close, but.

01:15:15.000 I really want to go.

01:15:16.000 I really like to go to Argentina.

01:15:17.000 Yeah, sail down to Tobago.

01:15:19.000 Tim Cash trip and go from Argentina.

01:15:21.000 Yeah, I mean, it'd be fascinating to document the LA because, like, Japan's awesome.

01:15:26.000 Argentina at the turn of the 19th century, so that going into the 1900s, was the wealthiest country in the Western Hemisphere.

01:15:32.000 What was?

01:15:33.000 Argentina.

01:15:34.000 The wealthiest country in the Western Hemisphere.

01:15:34.000 Oh, yeah.

01:15:35.000 And then a bunch of political instability leading into the Peronist years, it just completely destroyed their country.

01:15:41.000 And then a lot of German people went there. 0.97

01:15:43.000 Yeah, they sure did.

01:15:44.000 But it's kind of funny because, you know, I think about like 10 to 20,000, like, You know, Third Reich exiles went there, but there was already a massive German population there.

01:15:51.000 That's actually why they went there, because it was already an established German population. 0.93

01:15:55.000 And now you have a lot of Mennonites. 0.98

01:15:56.000 Like the Mennonites are running the show in Bolivia and Paraguay because they're super efficient.

01:16:04.000 They can produce a lot of food.

01:16:05.000 I really wouldn't want to leave.

01:16:07.000 I like places where there's like, I would go to like, if England's, you know, you can move to the Falklands.

01:16:12.000 Our government was different.

01:16:14.000 You know what I mean?

01:16:14.000 I like places with history and old buildings, and I don't want to live over there.

01:16:19.000 Have you been to South America? 0.68

01:16:20.000 I had no interest in going to South.

01:16:22.000 It was kind of crazy.

01:16:23.000 I lived in Chile and Santiago for a short period of time, and the federales, man, the federal cops.

01:16:27.000 This is why I'm really, really reticent about deploying the National Guard.

01:16:31.000 Because just in Santiago, it's just common for the federal government to control street corners everywhere you go.

01:16:37.000 Dudes in federal outfits with guns.

01:16:39.000 And it's like very disconcerting.

01:16:40.000 I think Chile is another example of like kind of bizarre European migration patterns because their founding father, his name is Bernardo.

01:16:45.000 You see that check?

01:16:46.000 So it's Chile.

01:16:46.000 His last name is O'Higgins.

01:16:47.000 He was of Irish extraction.

01:16:49.000 So they're founding, they're kind of there.

01:16:51.000 George Washington, in some ways, was a man named Bernardo O'Higgins.

01:16:54.000 It's really dramatic.

01:16:55.000 I don't think he spoke English either.

01:16:56.000 And like you see this all across like Argentina's star midfielder.

01:16:59.000 And he was a star in the last World Cup he played for Liverpool.

01:17:01.000 His name's Alexis.

01:17:02.000 It's like checks out.

01:17:03.000 His last name is McAllister.

01:17:05.000 So his name's Alexis McAllister.

01:17:06.000 Doesn't really, didn't speak any English until he moved to England, but he's of like Scottish extraction.

01:17:10.000 It's really fascinating.

01:17:11.000 A lot of the dynamics in South America. 1.00

01:17:14.000 The Croatians like totally run the show and still have no interest in going to Paraguay. 1.00

01:17:18.000 You should go to the jungle. 1.00

01:17:19.000 It's crazy.

01:17:20.000 Go to Iquitos in North America.

01:17:22.000 What if we stage an expedition to escape the intercontinent and traverse the ice wall?

01:17:28.000 We would have to take the Amazon.

01:17:29.000 That'd be interesting.

01:17:31.000 I think we would get turned away if we go to.

01:17:34.000 Like the cold ones might, like, yeah, you're looking at the southern, the southern, uh, what's that place called?

01:17:41.000 The Titanic did not hit an iceberg, but like a ton of icebergs.

01:17:44.000 No, I didn't.

01:17:45.000 All at once.

01:17:46.000 I just watched this guy who did like studied it for nine years.

01:17:48.000 Anyway, that made me think of the ice wall.

01:17:49.000 It was literally last night I was watching it.

01:17:50.000 Yeah, the Titanic movie, when they're in the water, it's still like lit, but that's the scariest part is you're there's no light whatsoever.

01:17:56.000 So when the Titanic goes down, the lights go out in the boat.

01:17:58.000 It's pitch black.

01:17:59.000 That's the scary dude.

01:18:00.000 Pitch black is crazy.

01:18:01.000 And there were people trapped on that boat in air pockets, just like.

01:18:04.000 You would see nothing.

01:18:06.000 It'd be like a sensory deprivation tank, but screams.

01:18:08.000 That would be the only thing you could hear.

01:18:09.000 Apparently, there was like this mirage thing that happened.

01:18:12.000 You know how, when you're in the desert and you see that little mirage?

01:18:15.000 Well, they said it was a clear night, and because of the temperature of the water and the temperature of the ice, it was like warmer out that it created this oceanic mirage type of thing.

01:18:24.000 And then they didn't not see the iceberg.

01:18:27.000 They hit like that's a great story.

01:18:29.000 What actually happened is there was a decoy ship.

01:18:31.000 The most important people escaped.

01:18:32.000 Oh, I did hear that.

01:18:33.000 The whole thing was planned so they could create the Federal Reserve.

01:18:35.000 Yeah.

01:18:36.000 A bunch of influential people died on that boat.

01:18:39.000 That was a crazy part of the story.

01:18:40.000 Yeah.

01:18:42.000 Are we going down there?

01:18:43.000 We should remake the Titanic and then do it again.

01:18:43.000 No.

01:18:46.000 This time, everything will be okay.

01:18:47.000 Dude, Richie Jackson was telling me about this shipwreck where these guys went down to just get recovered, excavate basically the depths of the death and all that and see all the dead bodies.

01:18:58.000 And one of the guys was swimming down there and a guy reached out and grabbed like a guy had survived in an air pocket.

01:19:03.000 It's a big story.

01:19:03.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:19:04.000 Like a few months ago, he was on there for three days in pitch black, just in an air pocket, and they were going down to recover the dead bodies.

01:19:11.000 When a guy grabbed in the divers and they turned a lot, they saw him and they were like, There's a survivor, bro.

01:19:15.000 And he survived, he's okay now.

01:19:18.000 Wow, that's how you got us having that.

01:19:19.000 That would give me a whole pitch black is crazy.

01:19:21.000 This is why I think about like order and how value.

01:19:24.000 I thought again about this weird story.

01:19:25.000 If you were out in the woods in the pitch dark trying to survive and you found a small village of light and you're like, Oh my god, look, in order to come into the village, you must eat a child.

01:19:33.000 You're like, I don't know why it just changed the image to a bunch of cows, we like them too, but you know, it had the guy there for there you go.

01:19:41.000 That was him, he made it.

01:19:43.000 He was the chef.

01:19:43.000 He was a chef, I think.

01:19:44.000 I'm sorry, but he's scary looking anyway.

01:19:47.000 He's just in water for days in an air pocket.

01:19:49.000 Is that him underwater in the boat?

01:19:50.000 Yeah, in the pocket.

01:19:51.000 They filmed it.

01:19:51.000 I'd be so upset if that were me.

01:19:53.000 I'd be pissed.

01:19:54.000 If they found you, you'd be like, guys, I was so comfortable.

01:19:56.000 Finally, peace and quiet. 1.00

01:19:58.000 He tried to go down with the ship, but I think these guys will do to escape women. 1.00

01:20:01.000 Imagine he gave up.

01:20:03.000 Is this what they call ego death?

01:20:05.000 They find him and he's like, don't tell my wife.

01:20:07.000 What would that do to you if you believe you're going to die?

01:20:07.000 Yeah.

01:20:10.000 You truly just accept it.

01:20:12.000 And then you live like that for.

01:20:14.000 We saw a case study in Hawaii when they were all convinced that there was a nuclear warhead.

01:20:14.000 For days.

01:20:18.000 Oh, yeah.

01:20:20.000 The text alert went out to everybody saying a nuke is coming, and then everyone freaked out.

01:20:24.000 Because the general understanding of human psychology is like everyone would start.

01:20:26.000 Wasn't it?

01:20:27.000 Because we saw in Russia and Moscow when they thought Napoleon was coming to destroy all of them. 0.66

01:20:31.000 And the same thing with the Germans, they thought it would turn into a giant brothel in a day.

01:20:34.000 But in Hawaii, everyone was just like. 1.00

01:20:36.000 One of the stories out of Hawaii was that a male and female cousin banged.

01:20:41.000 Yeah, the human psychology gets weird.

01:20:42.000 There was a post online where a woman said that when they all got the text messages that a missile was inbound to Hawaii, they freaked out.

01:20:49.000 And then her male cousin was there and they were like, screw it.

01:20:51.000 And they just hooked up.

01:20:53.000 And then, yeah.

01:20:54.000 And then it was like on Reddit or something.

01:20:56.000 And then when they were like, they found out it was a false alarm and they're kind of like, uh oh.

01:20:59.000 And they got married.

01:21:00.000 Oops.

01:21:00.000 Oh, they did?

01:21:00.000 Let's just.

01:21:01.000 I'm kidding.

01:21:03.000 Oh, God.

01:21:04.000 That's a good story.

01:21:05.000 There is a weird story.

01:21:06.000 It's a horrible story.

01:21:07.000 That's a crime thing that was like that there was a girl and she had an affair with her cousin, I believe her first cousin.

01:21:15.000 And then she broke it off because she's like, oh, this is terrible and wrong.

01:21:17.000 And then he went and like massacred everyone in her family.

01:21:22.000 This was like recently too.

01:21:24.000 Really?

01:21:25.000 He's like, don't worry.

01:21:27.000 You can't be embarrassed because I killed everybody.

01:21:28.000 He was so upset about it that like he.

01:21:31.000 Everybody but her husband survived the attack.

01:21:34.000 And that's how they found out it was him.

01:21:36.000 But her mother went in to check on her. 0.99

01:21:37.000 Wait, she was married and cheating on her husband with her cousin? 0.99

01:21:40.000 Yes.

01:21:40.000 Horrible.

01:21:41.000 This is legit happened. 0.92

01:21:43.000 I think I'm more disturbed by her cheating on her husband than I am getting with her cousin.

01:21:47.000 Although I'm not into cousin on cousin.

01:21:49.000 What about second cousins?

01:21:49.000 I'm not saying that.

01:21:51.000 I think that's okay.

01:21:52.000 I think this was first cousin.

01:21:53.000 No, I know.

01:21:53.000 But how do you guys feel about second cousins?

01:21:54.000 Second cousin means it's your dad's cousin.

01:21:57.000 Isn't that what the cousins are?

01:21:58.000 Second cousin is your dad's cousin.

01:21:59.000 So it's like if.

01:22:02.000 Yeah.

01:22:02.000 Or your mom's cousin.

01:22:03.000 I think that's okay.

01:22:04.000 A little less gross.

01:22:06.000 It's still gross. 0.66

01:22:07.000 It's still gross.

01:22:08.000 Yeah.

01:22:08.000 What about like third cousin?

01:22:09.000 Is third cousin than your grandpa or grandma's cousin?

01:22:12.000 Because now you're talking about age gaps too.

01:22:14.000 Like cousin of a cousin. 0.97

01:22:15.000 So gross, man. 0.98

01:22:16.000 All of us. 0.99

01:22:16.000 Just stay away from your own. 0.99

01:22:18.000 Ian's trying to figure out which cousin he can bang.

01:22:19.000 Like, I'm going through the Rolodex right now.

01:22:22.000 I'm eighth cousin. 1.00

01:22:22.000 She was hot. 1.00

01:22:23.000 I'm eighth cousin with Taylor Swift.

01:22:25.000 I will say Avril Levine is a cousin of mine.

01:22:26.000 It's a cousin of mine.

01:22:27.000 It'll make me look bad.

01:22:28.000 But when I was young, my mom had her cousins.

01:22:32.000 Right.

01:22:32.000 And then they had kids.

01:22:35.000 And then one of their kids was, his name was, he was kind of like a trash. 0.93

01:22:39.000 He was cute, like a good looking kid, but then he was still like my, it wasn't really my cousin. 0.89

01:22:43.000 But like, I could see we're not related by blood.

01:22:46.000 Was he also?

01:22:47.000 This is interesting.

01:22:48.000 You and your second cousin, your furthest line is your great grandparent.

01:22:55.000 But you have different grandparents.

01:22:56.000 I see.

01:22:57.000 But I don't think that's how people conventionally use it.

01:22:59.000 Your grandparent's sibling.

01:23:02.000 Has a kid, their grandchild would be your second cousin.

01:23:05.000 But I think the way people typically use second cousin is like, for example, if your first cousin had a child, that would be your second cousin.

01:23:11.000 Also, that would be your second cousin?

01:23:12.000 Yeah.

01:23:13.000 And your first cousins will be your children's second cousins.

01:23:17.000 That's how people tell.

01:23:18.000 My buddy's dad, but it's not correct.

01:23:21.000 This is the correct.

01:23:22.000 Right.

01:23:22.000 My friend, his dad's brother married his mom's sister.

01:23:27.000 It's not a weird thing.

01:23:28.000 His cousin is, her cousin's brother is ancestry.

01:23:30.000 Oh, yeah, no, this was ancestry. 1.00

01:23:32.000 Breaks. 0.91

01:23:33.000 There's a funny viral story where a woman, she went viral because she married, what is it?

01:23:39.000 Like she married a guy at a family, like she met a guy at a family event and they got married.

01:23:44.000 And they were like, I forgot what the thing was.

01:23:47.000 She was like, We are not related, but they were cousins.

01:23:51.000 Because it was like, the way it worked was, it was her cousin's, yeah, she married her cousin's cousin.

01:23:58.000 And so everybody was like, You're related.

01:23:59.000 And she's like, No, no, no, no.

01:24:01.000 My cousin is related to me from my dad.

01:24:04.000 But my cousin's mom has a sister who had a kid, and I married that kid who's not related to me because I condone it.

01:24:11.000 It's still weird.

01:24:12.000 It is weird.

01:24:13.000 It just sounds weird on paper.

01:24:15.000 It's a verbiage that I can't be, but it's still weird.

01:24:18.000 You know, it's kind of crazy too that, like, I never really thought about it because my family wasn't that big, but it didn't occur to me until I was a little older.

01:24:27.000 My cousins had cousins who were not related to me.

01:24:29.000 I know.

01:24:29.000 It's the biggest betrayal when you find them.

01:24:32.000 No, but like, if you're a founding stock, so if you have any like Mayflower descendants or ancestors, then the Putnams, I don't know there. 0.99

01:24:39.000 Yeah, so 51 Mayflower passengers had children. 0.52

01:24:42.000 So if you are of Mayflower stock, you're going to be related to every other.

01:24:45.000 Oh, they were all inbreeding? 1.00

01:24:46.000 Well, bro, let's be real.

01:24:46.000 No, but.

01:24:46.000 The Mayflowers?

01:24:48.000 If you have the same last name as someone you're related to.

01:24:51.000 Likely, yeah.

01:24:53.000 And if you have any European hair, the Smiths are related.

01:24:55.000 Well, sometimes they change their name to like whatever their job was, so you never know.

01:25:00.000 Well, no, the reason people's last names originated from the jobs, and the reason why there's so many Smiths is because when a conqueror took over a country, you don't kill the blacksmiths, they make weapons for you.

01:25:11.000 And when you're going to war, you don't send the blacksmiths because they make weapons for you.

01:25:13.000 So Smiths survived.

01:25:15.000 Well, I think there are cases where someone's like, What's your name?

01:25:17.000 He's like, I don't know.

01:25:18.000 What do you do?

01:25:19.000 I'm a blacksmith.

01:25:20.000 Okay, then you're Smith.

01:25:21.000 Ian.

01:25:21.000 And you're not related to the other guy who is Smith.

01:25:23.000 You can actually just look this up.

01:25:25.000 Last name, so we're both right.

01:25:27.000 There wasn't a thing where it was like, What's your last name?

01:25:30.000 It was, He is John the Smith.

01:25:30.000 I don't know, but I'm a Smith.

01:25:33.000 And they would, and that's why there's names like, like Juan de Smith.

01:25:36.000 You know what I mean?

01:25:37.000 I mean, when they come to the United States and they're like signing paperwork at Ellis Island, and they'll be like, What your name is incomprehensible to me.

01:25:45.000 So, what do you, what do you know?

01:25:46.000 Their name is Jimmy.

01:25:46.000 I play basketball.

01:25:47.000 Okay, then you're jumper.

01:25:48.000 No, whatever. 0.77

01:25:49.000 Talking about Native Americans for people who came here, they'd be like, My name is Rick of Rome.

01:25:55.000 And they put your name as Richard De Rome or De Roma or something.

01:25:58.000 You're from, like, so people got there.

01:26:01.000 There are modern versions, but.

01:26:02.000 John Jumper.

01:26:03.000 There's a bunch of names, like, related to the job you do.

01:26:05.000 Smith, we were blacksmiths.

01:26:06.000 Smith?

01:26:07.000 There was a show called The Black Smiths, and they were all black, but also Smiths.

01:26:11.000 That's pretty cool.

01:26:11.000 Is that real?

01:26:12.000 No, I just made that up.

01:26:13.000 There could be a show like that. 0.99

01:26:13.000 Oh, Black Smiths. 0.99

01:26:14.000 It'd be like a double entendre. 1.00

01:26:15.000 It'd be kind of funny.

01:26:16.000 You might be able to get away with it.

01:26:17.000 So here's the list, Ian.

01:26:19.000 Okay.

01:26:20.000 Of this list, where would you, like, where is the line for you?

01:26:25.000 For me?

01:26:25.000 Yeah.

01:26:26.000 But who I would bang?

01:26:27.000 Yeah.

01:26:27.000 Sibling?

01:26:28.000 Third cousin.

01:26:29.000 No, I wouldn't bang my sibling.

01:26:30.000 I never had a sister, though, but no, I wouldn't do it.

01:26:33.000 Evans.

01:26:34.000 Cousin?

01:26:35.000 No.

01:26:36.000 No.

01:26:37.000 Second cousin?

01:26:38.000 You're kind of getting unrelated at that point.

01:26:40.000 It's kind of weird.

01:26:41.000 I had a girl in my class who I found out was a cousin, I guess my dad's side, my aunt, his or her husband's niece.

01:26:57.000 Was this girl?

01:26:58.000 So we have.

01:26:59.000 Yeah, so you're not related at all.

01:27:00.000 Yeah, but it's weird because we're still.

01:27:01.000 That was the thing about the chick who married her cousin's cousin, she's like, My cousin's mother, my aunt, is an aunt by marriage.

01:27:09.000 Yeah.

01:27:10.000 So we have no blood relation.

01:27:11.000 Yeah.

01:27:12.000 Her sister had a child.

01:27:15.000 So my cousin and him are cousins, but we have no blood relation.

01:27:19.000 So that's like a weird tri force of cousin relationship.

01:27:23.000 I have a real friend, and I'll just use fake names here, obviously, his name is John, and he married Sue.

01:27:29.000 And they got married.

01:27:31.000 Now, Sue's younger sister, Jane, and John's younger brother, Joe, they also married.

01:27:37.000 So they're both married.

01:27:38.000 So then when they have kids, yes, they're cousins, but they're half siblings.

01:27:41.000 That's my buddy Steve and his cousin, Shane.

01:27:43.000 Both are twins.

01:27:44.000 They're more than just twins.

01:27:45.000 They're genetic half siblings.

01:27:46.000 Yeah.

01:27:46.000 They're genetic siblings.

01:27:47.000 No, they're genetic siblings.

01:27:48.000 But then if they're not twins, they have genetic half siblings.

01:27:50.000 Yeah.

01:27:50.000 So if, like, if your dad is a twin, your cousin is actually your half brother or half sister.

01:27:56.000 Yeah.

01:27:57.000 But if you're both twins, if your mom is a twin, your dad is a twin, you actually are just brother and sister.

01:28:03.000 And it's kind of interesting.

01:28:04.000 It's crazy, right?

01:28:05.000 And some of these classical understandings, like there was this story going on recently because a guy, his wife died, and he ended up marrying her younger sister.

01:28:12.000 And everyone was disturbed by this, but that was the way it worked for.

01:28:15.000 Yeah, it's how it used to be back then.

01:28:16.000 Well, I'm thinking that's why we're talking about monarchy.

01:28:17.000 I'm like, like in the Patriot.

01:28:19.000 If his wife dies and then his wife's sister came and took care of his kids.

01:28:22.000 If your dad was the king and he was like, you're going to be marrying your cousin, you're like, I'm doing whatever you say because you're the king.

01:28:30.000 Or he's like, I'm going to have you marry your sister.

01:28:32.000 What's that?

01:28:33.000 They were just like, okay. 0.96

01:28:33.000 It was the Habsburgs. 0.96

01:28:34.000 They would marry each other. 0.92

01:28:35.000 The Rothschilds did it too. 0.75

01:28:36.000 That's how they held a big club.

01:28:37.000 All the world did it too.

01:28:38.000 They wanted to keep, they wanted to insulate the wealth.

01:28:40.000 Yes.

01:28:41.000 Insulating power and wealth through the.

01:28:42.000 I think one of the eighth and line of the Habsburgs throne was on Michael Knowles' show the other day.

01:28:46.000 No.

01:28:47.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:28:47.000 Really?

01:28:47.000 And he was like, giving his geopolitical takes.

01:28:49.000 Does he have like. 0.90

01:28:50.000 Does she have a jaw? 0.96

01:28:52.000 Yeah, the Habsburg jaw is crazy. 1.00

01:28:54.000 That inbred jaw. 1.00

01:28:56.000 Would you marry your third cousin?

01:28:57.000 You share the same great great grandparent.

01:29:00.000 If I fell in love, probably.

01:29:02.000 Here's the crazy thing though.

01:29:03.000 Let's take a look at this, right?

01:29:05.000 So let's say great great grandparent had her first child at 19 years old.

01:29:12.000 So at 30, so at great grandparent is 19 and has her first kid.

01:29:19.000 So now it's 38, 19.

01:29:21.000 Your grandparent at 19.

01:29:23.000 So here you are.

01:29:25.000 You've got a 38 year old grandparent.

01:29:30.000 You've got a, like, let's just do 20 year gaps.

01:29:35.000 So 20, 40, 60.

01:29:37.000 You have a 60 year old, hold on, is it?

01:29:40.000 You've got a 40 year old grandparent, a 60 year old great grandparent, and an 80 year old great great grandparent.

01:29:45.000 And you meet your second, so this would be your second cousin.

01:29:51.000 You'd share a great great grandparent.

01:29:53.000 I guess if it made it to you, Your third cousin and you could theoretically have a 100 year old great great grandparent, and you go to family meetings together.

01:30:01.000 Like, would you marry that person?

01:30:03.000 If I was married to her and then I found out, I wouldn't divorce her.

01:30:06.000 But if I found out beforehand, I'd be real weird.

01:30:10.000 What about that?

01:30:11.000 What about that episode of House where, like, the man and the woman find out they're half siblings because the dad cheated with the neighbor, and then the neighbor wife had a kid.

01:30:22.000 And so the boy grew up next to his next door neighbor, and they were high school sweethearts.

01:30:27.000 And he was like, all growing up, my dad was always yelling at me to stay away from her, not to date her, but we love each other.

01:30:32.000 And then they're like, yeah, you're half siblings.

01:30:34.000 Dude, and this is my question with gene therapy. 0.69

01:30:36.000 Would you marry your great, granddaughter if she was super hot and you didn't love her? 0.98

01:30:44.000 That would be impossible.

01:30:46.000 If your body stays young as you age, solar age goes up, but your genetic age stays the same in your 35 year old body, but you've been here for 190 years.

01:30:55.000 Are we vampires?

01:30:56.000 I don't know what's coming to this.

01:30:58.000 We're going to be living for a long time.

01:30:59.000 If you traveled.

01:31:01.000 Into if you traveled back in time 200 years and met like your ancestor and she was hot and she was hot, you'd hook up with her.

01:31:09.000 I don't want to mess with this question. 0.97

01:31:11.000 Your head's I'm all about chaos, her child, but then also her like great grand. 0.99

01:31:19.000 What if it's like the only way for you to exist is to have sex with me right now? 0.99

01:31:22.000 He's like had like a back to the future, yeah, yeah. 0.98

01:31:24.000 He almost hooked up with his own grandfather.

01:31:26.000 His mom wants to hook up with him, that's crazy.

01:31:29.000 That was back to the future, but it makes sense because it looks halfway back to the future.

01:31:34.000 He was disappearing because he needed to connect his mom and dad.

01:31:38.000 Futurama is when Fry goes back in time and meets his grandmother and then realizes that his grandfather can't be his grandfather because his grandfather got blown up and he still exists. 0.99

01:31:49.000 And then the professor goes, You idiot, isn't it obvious?

01:31:52.000 He's like, If so, Fry's grandfather gets blown up in a nuclear test and Fry still exists and goes, Well, that proves he's not really my grandfather. 1.00

01:31:59.000 That proves you're not my grandmother.

01:32:01.000 So he bangs his grandma.

01:32:02.000 And then the professor's like, Isn't it?

01:32:04.000 He's like, If my grandfather is dead, then who's my grandfather? 1.00

01:32:06.000 And he goes, Isn't it obvious, you idiot? 1.00

01:32:07.000 It's you. 1.00

01:32:08.000 That's what I'm talking about. 0.96

01:32:09.000 And because he went back in time and banged his own grandmother, giving birth to his dad, and then who gave birth to him, it erased the delto brainway from his brain. 0.90

01:32:16.000 So now he can't be mind controlled by the giant brains. 0.98

01:32:19.000 Oh, see, there is value to inbreeding.

01:32:21.000 It's a risk. 1.00

01:32:21.000 You know, you have really good traits, like the Jews came up with some high intelligence, but they also have some weird disease, I think, that's inherent in some way. 1.00

01:32:29.000 Oh, yeah. 1.00

01:32:29.000 They have some kind of blood thing, right? 1.00

01:32:30.000 Yeah, I'm not sure exactly what it's called, but most people that I talk to talk to are negative or something.

01:32:30.000 It's an inbreeding.

01:32:34.000 No, I don't know.

01:32:35.000 No, no, no.

01:32:36.000 I do know what it's called because they have to text you for it when you have babies.

01:32:39.000 You're right about back in Iceland, apparently, they have an app to make sure they're not cousins when you hook up.

01:32:43.000 Problem there.

01:32:43.000 Apparently, that's a huge risk.

01:32:44.000 Really?

01:32:45.000 Yeah.

01:32:45.000 Keep it in the island?

01:32:45.000 It's an island, yeah.

01:32:46.000 Because they're all cousins, man.

01:32:49.000 Yeah.

01:32:49.000 They're all woke, too.

01:32:50.000 In Crusader Kings, you can change the law of is it legal to marry your second cousin?

01:32:56.000 Is it legal to marry your cousin? 0.57

01:32:57.000 Is it legal to marry your sister? 0.95

01:32:59.000 And back in the day, it was totally legal.

01:33:01.000 Cousin marriage was completely normal in all cultures for a long time, even the United States.

01:33:04.000 Very. 0.99

01:33:05.000 And then in the Middle East, they'll come into this day and it lowers your IQ. 1.00

01:33:09.000 Very bad. 1.00

01:33:09.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:33:10.000 Very bad.

01:33:11.000 People, there's something called line breeding in chickens where you just have the dad bang the kids.

01:33:17.000 Yep. 0.99

01:33:17.000 Because they don't care. 0.99

01:33:18.000 They're chickens.

01:33:19.000 I know, but like it's still gross even for chickens.

01:33:22.000 Do you eat their eggs?

01:33:23.000 Well, chickens have different genetics, so they don't have the same problems humans do.

01:33:27.000 So baseline for unrelated, okay, baseline 2% to 3% risk of major congenital disorders.

01:33:33.000 Just baseline if you're unrelated, 2% to 3% chance.

01:33:36.000 12.5% chance if you're first cousins.

01:33:39.000 This is according to ChatGPT.

01:33:41.000 12.5% of DNA.

01:33:44.000 Oh, if you share about 12% of DNA, then there's a 4% to 6% chance.

01:33:48.000 Sorry, I misread that.

01:33:50.000 If you share 12.5% of DNA with someone, meaning you're a cousin, there's a 4% to 6% chance of a congenital error.

01:33:56.000 So it basically doubles from unrelated to first cousin.

01:33:59.000 You have a.

01:34:01.000 And then it goes up to if you share about 3.1% of DNA, which is second cousins, it's about 3% to 3.5%, which is up from a 2% to 3%, almost the same.

01:34:14.000 What's the number for siblings?

01:34:16.000 I didn't ask siblings.

01:34:17.000 Let's find out.

01:34:18.000 How about siblings? 1.00

01:34:19.000 You can gay. 0.98

01:34:20.000 Oh, here it is sibling parent or child. 0.99

01:34:21.000 You can marry your cousin.

01:34:22.000 Oh, sibling, parent, or child, 50%. 0.88

01:34:27.000 Wow.

01:34:27.000 No, no.

01:34:28.000 I'm sorry, I'm reading this.

01:34:28.000 If you share 50% of your DNA, it just says much higher, very high.

01:34:33.000 It doesn't say 4% to 6% from first cousin. 0.68

01:34:36.000 It should all be illegal, but they're legalizing it. 0.82

01:34:38.000 Cousin marriage is getting legalized in the UK and in the United States. 0.54

01:34:42.000 Because the, and sibling marriage is going to happen too.

01:34:46.000 The argument that's being made is with the gay marriage stuff, the door opened to everything. 0.99

01:34:54.000 Bad idea. 0.99

01:34:56.000 The argument is as long as you're consenting adults.

01:34:58.000 And so there have been these cases where it's like, as long as you agree not to have kids or whatever, and they're going to sue on those grounds and be like, you can't stop us.

01:35:06.000 And then you're going to have a bunch of inbred, you know, deficient people. 0.54

01:35:10.000 Yeah, this says if you hook up with your uncle or your niece or your aunt or your nephew that you share about 25% DNA, there's a 10 to 20% chance of serious congenital disorder.

01:35:19.000 But if you're.

01:35:21.000 What's the word for it?

01:35:23.000 I guess we should say in law.

01:35:26.000 Your in laws, you may be.

01:35:27.000 You're good to go.

01:35:28.000 You're good to go.

01:35:28.000 That's right.

01:35:29.000 So you're allowed to say.

01:35:30.000 So just, you know, if you ever are announcing that you're banging your aunt or uncle, just make sure you mention in law, in law.

01:35:36.000 And then if it's your sibling, 50% DNA.

01:35:39.000 He's like, stop.

01:35:39.000 He says you have about 25% to 40% chance or higher for a severe deformity from your sibling.

01:35:45.000 So it looks like it scales up linearly based on how much of a percent DNA you share with the person.

01:35:50.000 What happens if.

01:35:51.000 Can you look this up?

01:35:52.000 Like, what happens if you hooked up with your great grandparent?

01:35:55.000 What if you had a kid?

01:35:57.000 Okay.

01:35:58.000 With your grief.

01:35:59.000 Because we're talking.

01:36:02.000 How does that work?

01:36:02.000 As you age?

01:36:03.000 I don't even know.

01:36:04.000 It's going to happen to somebody eventually if it hasn't already.

01:36:08.000 A great grandparent.

01:36:09.000 Is it possible?

01:36:09.000 You share about 12.5%, do you, Renee?

01:36:12.000 Roughly 4% to 6% chance.

01:36:14.000 But that's like your cousin.

01:36:16.000 So hold on.

01:36:17.000 If your great grandparent had their first kid at like 13, and then your grandparent had their first kid at 13, so they're 26 when your parent is born, so they're 39 when you're born, I don't think it's possible for you to have a child with your great grandparent.

01:36:35.000 Well, if they're the grandparent, if the grandparent's a man, this is definitely.

01:36:39.000 This is definitely close.

01:36:39.000 Oh, yeah, duh.

01:36:41.000 If your grandparents are a man, you can. 0.99

01:36:44.000 This definitely happened in Pakistan, by the way. 1.00

01:36:47.000 As we gene therapy, like Brian Johnson, we live for 170 years in like 40 year old bodies.

01:36:52.000 So this is if it's your great, great, great, great grandparent.

01:36:55.000 You're good.

01:36:56.000 It's only a 0.2% chance of DNA.

01:37:00.000 It's about the same as just an unrelation.

01:37:02.000 So if it is your great, granddaughter, I guess you're good. 0.95

01:37:05.000 Well, you go back in time.

01:37:06.000 You can.

01:37:07.000 You're ready.

01:37:07.000 You live till you're 200.

01:37:07.000 You're good.

01:37:09.000 We just did a great, great.

01:37:11.000 Are you my great grandmother?

01:37:11.000 I will say.

01:37:13.000 You're just excited to see me.

01:37:14.000 Who's like a lord or something?

01:37:16.000 And he's very, very, very wealthy and he's literally looking for a young wife right now.

01:37:20.000 So, if that's equivalent to your great, great, great, great grandmother.

01:37:23.000 Nah, they took away the lordships.

01:37:25.000 He's got something where he wants to leave his estate and something and he needs a son.

01:37:25.000 Remember?

01:37:29.000 Yeah, I'm saying the estate's worthless.

01:37:30.000 I think this is what Zeus was.

01:37:31.000 The House of Lords is cooked.

01:37:33.000 The House of Lords still exists.

01:37:34.000 It's the hereditary peers are gone.

01:37:36.000 That's what I'm saying.

01:37:36.000 The historic.

01:37:37.000 Maybe he's just a politician.

01:37:40.000 Exactly.

01:37:40.000 So, when you're a lord and you're like, I'm a lord.

01:37:43.000 It's like that means nothing.

01:37:44.000 Do you know why there are so many place names around here called Fairfax, Lord Fairfax, et cetera? 0.93

01:37:49.000 Is because he banged a lot of chicks? 0.96

01:37:51.000 Well, no.

01:37:51.000 So Lord Fairfax was obviously a British lord and he had a personal relationship with George Washington.

01:37:56.000 They were buddies.

01:37:56.000 And so the American Revolution happens.

01:38:00.000 The United States takes away the nobility, all the titles from all the lords in America, except Lord Fairfax was spared.

01:38:06.000 So he was the only American citizen that was allowed to keep his British peerage.

01:38:10.000 Now, six or seven generations go by.

01:38:12.000 It's the early to mid 1800s.

01:38:14.000 They've long forgotten because no one in America cares about nobility.

01:38:17.000 Well, this guy, he kind of realizes, Hey, I'm actually technically entitled to a seat in the House of Lords.

01:38:23.000 So he gets on a boat.

01:38:24.000 He goes to London.

01:38:25.000 He says, Hey, you know that empty seat for Lord Fairfax?

01:38:27.000 And they're like, Yeah.

01:38:28.000 And he's like, I probably got a Southern accent.

01:38:29.000 And he says, I would like my seat back. 0.66

01:38:32.000 And so the Fairfaxes were brought back into the House of Lords.

01:38:34.000 And then until this year, his descendant was still in the House of Lords and he had Virginia heritage.

01:38:39.000 But what if, like, Lord Fairfax was created in Winchester, Virginia?

01:38:43.000 Like, who gets to decide?

01:38:44.000 What happens if, like, you know, Lord Brown has three kids, and then you're like, I am, you know, leaving, and the seat will befall my eldest.

01:38:55.000 Then he has three kids. 0.92

01:38:57.000 And sooner or later, there's like 73, you know, Brown family who are like, who gets to have the seat? 1.00

01:39:04.000 The eldest, always the oldest boy. 0.97

01:39:07.000 In a primogeniture.

01:39:08.000 So that means, like, the second oldest has a kid, and that kid's cut out, and like, they never have access.

01:39:15.000 That's how you get like Scar murdering Mufasa. 0.50

01:39:18.000 That's how you got the South, the American South was the cavalier class. 0.93

01:39:21.000 Those were all the second children of British nobility. 0.88

01:39:24.000 And they obviously hadn't, they weren't going to inherit anything in Britain.

01:39:26.000 So they took whatever wealth they did have.

01:39:28.000 They moved to the United States.

01:39:29.000 They moved to the South. 0.95

01:39:29.000 They founded the Southern gentry. 0.95

01:39:31.000 The Southern gentry were all the second and third. 1.00

01:39:32.000 I mean, that's kind of whack. 1.00

01:39:33.000 Imagine like you're born and you grow up and you're like, by the way, like you're second.

01:39:37.000 So you can't have, you get nothing.

01:39:38.000 Yeah, that was all.

01:39:39.000 You just got to move to Georgia and figure it out.

01:39:40.000 Yeah, but they do get, they got like different benefits and privileges.

01:39:44.000 They got like access and.

01:39:45.000 Yeah, they were still immensely wealthy.

01:39:46.000 A lot of them would go to like in the clergy.

01:39:49.000 Right?

01:39:49.000 Like that was a big thing.

01:39:50.000 Because then they couldn't inherit, and that was because it was dangerous.

01:39:53.000 Sometimes they'd be given like a kingship or a lordship, like a duchy or something by their brother who was the king now.

01:39:58.000 Before that, it was before that was called primogenitures when they evolved to be able to give everything to the eldest.

01:40:03.000 I like the feudal system.

01:40:04.000 It used to be called Gavelkind, where the guy would die and the land would just get split up amongst the kids and they'd fight.

01:40:10.000 They'd immediately go to war, and whichever one took over would be the new king.

01:40:14.000 It was horrible for siblings and stuff, and they'd be killing each other.

01:40:18.000 And then they also have something called ultimogeniture, which is where they give everything to the youngest. 0.92

01:40:22.000 That was like what the Mongols did because it ensured a longer reign because a lot of chaos would ensue when there would be a short reign when a king would serve for six years and die because it's already just been split up again. 0.97

01:40:35.000 I think you'd have these young kids running it. 0.98

01:40:39.000 Yeah.

01:40:39.000 And then if the kid's too young, if the kid's like 11, they'd have.

01:40:39.000 That's happened.

01:40:42.000 Oh, you know, yeah.

01:40:43.000 They'd put somebody in charge like Snape or somebody would come and take over the kingdom and run the kingdom with the kid as like a figurehead.

01:40:50.000 Yeah.

01:40:51.000 They did a lot of that with the tutors.

01:40:54.000 Dude, that's been like the way humanity worked forever.

01:40:58.000 I think that's the way it should be.

01:40:59.000 As far as we know in writing, like.

01:41:01.000 Divorce is illegal?

01:41:03.000 Yes. 1.00

01:41:03.000 Yo, what's that? 1.00

01:41:04.000 Divorce is illegal.

01:41:04.000 I want to talk about Zeus for a minute because I think he banged his children and his children's children.

01:41:10.000 I don't think Zeus is real.

01:41:11.000 I think he was.

01:41:12.000 I think it was a dude that had electricity passed down from Atlantis.

01:41:15.000 You're looking at Melee.

01:41:16.000 And they wrote stories.

01:41:18.000 He told everyone he was a god.

01:41:19.000 They lived up in the mountains in this cult, this Zeus cult, where he banged all his kids and all his kids' kids.

01:41:24.000 And they popped out of his forehead and all that.

01:41:25.000 Yeah, they made up stories.

01:41:27.000 But they definitely had fire and electricity.

01:41:29.000 And they were like, we got to get this bullet though.

01:41:31.000 Prometheus is like, we got to go give the commoners the fire.

01:41:33.000 And he's like, you better not.

01:41:34.000 It's too dangerous to give this technology to the people. 0.99

01:41:37.000 Prometheus is like, screw you, Zeus. 0.92

01:41:39.000 I'm going anyway. 0.99

01:41:40.000 They're like, then you're banished.

01:41:41.000 I don't know the story. 0.75

01:41:42.000 Didn't he like turn himself into a duck and then bang some chick or something?

01:41:46.000 Zeus? 0.97

01:41:46.000 Yeah. 0.97

01:41:47.000 Probably.

01:41:48.000 That guy was freaky.

01:41:49.000 They locked him in the door.

01:41:50.000 Yeah, he like turned himself into a duck, I think.

01:41:52.000 Like just eating mushrooms every day.

01:41:55.000 God knows what those guys were, that cult was doing.

01:41:58.000 I like to look at like history like it probably really happened, like some of these old stories.

01:42:01.000 It all kind of did.

01:42:02.000 Let's talk about James Tallarico texting little girls.

01:42:05.000 I was going to say, here's, he looks like this on the subject.

01:42:08.000 On the subject of Zeus.

01:42:09.000 Yeah. 0.90

01:42:10.000 Because apparently, like, Zeus was a pedo, wasn't he?

01:42:12.000 For James Tallarico, this is a tweet that resurfaced from 2013 when he was 24.

01:42:17.000 He goes, Trying to help my former students pick the best high school, the job never ends.

01:42:21.000 And you can see the first message from this 13, presumably 13 year old girl is, I'm good!

01:42:27.000 Sir, school is getting intense.

01:42:29.000 The I'm good implies he messaged her at 11 43 p.m. and posted at 11.

01:42:36.000 Why is a teacher texting a student at all?

01:42:39.000 Why is a teacher texting a young girl student at midnight?

01:42:43.000 And if this is what he put on Twitter, imagine what other conversations were happening.

01:42:47.000 Here's a question Isn't he the one that's also going around being like a, he has some relation to the evangelical church?

01:42:54.000 And then I think, no, he's a Presbyterian.

01:42:57.000 But okay, so.

01:42:58.000 He's in the PCUSA, which is the very liberal.

01:43:00.000 But he's coming out and he's actually like speaking about God and being a preacher like on his platform, right?

01:43:05.000 Because I was just, I feel like I was just hearing Meg Ashmore talk about this.

01:43:09.000 That's his angle is he's saying, well, you know, I'm a Presbyterian.

01:43:12.000 Of course, he hides the ball that he's in the PCUSA and he says, I'm one of you.

01:43:16.000 All you evangelicals and Ted Cruz.

01:43:17.000 But Billy Graham just came out and said he likes it the way that I think it was this guy, the way that he's talking about Jesus on the stage of.

01:43:25.000 But this guy, like, this is creepy.

01:43:27.000 First of all, the guy looks like a creep.

01:43:29.000 Yeah.

01:43:29.000 Like he, you can just tell they all have the face.

01:43:32.000 He has the face, right?

01:43:33.000 Is this guy running as a Republican or as a Democrat?

01:43:35.000 Okay.

01:43:36.000 So he's, he's Texas?

01:43:37.000 Is this what this is?

01:43:38.000 Is he cool?

01:43:38.000 Okay.

01:43:39.000 No.

01:43:40.000 First of all, no Democrats cool.

01:43:42.000 Number one.

01:43:42.000 Number two is that he said something else, too, though, that was a little.

01:43:46.000 Controversial, like, oh, he was one of the people that said God was non binary, and then he tried to walk that back a little bit.

01:43:52.000 I think it's this guy, yeah, by saying that, like, no, what I'm just saying is God can't be quantified in, like, right, um, whatever, like, you know, human terms. 0.52

01:44:01.000 But the dude's a weirdo, yeah.

01:44:02.000 Yeah, he's the one who was eating the chicken leg, pretending that he was back into meat the other day. 0.67

01:44:07.000 Yeah, it's like boilerplate PCUSA stuff where he's like, you know, we have the Christian God, but also the God of the Torah and the God of the Quran and the God of whatever the Indian book is.

01:44:18.000 They're all the same God.

01:44:20.000 And it's like, we fought wars over this, actually.

01:44:23.000 How are Democrats responding to this?

01:44:25.000 I haven't been on Twitter in days because I was sick, but like, how are they responding to this?

01:44:30.000 Are they upset with.

01:44:31.000 Nah, I mean, the only people talking about this is like the conservative commentariat, but the thing is, The thing you got to understand about Tallarico is, you know, people are now digging up all this stuff.

01:44:41.000 I promise you, either Paxton or Cornyn had Oppo research ready to go, but they had to run against each other first.

01:44:45.000 So now you're going to see this is why everyone's like, Tallarico could win.

01:44:48.000 I'm like, he has so many, not just skeletons in his closet, but skeletons that he posted on Twitter.

01:44:53.000 And the reason you're not seeing Paxton and Cornyn go on and on about it is because they were focused on running against each other.

01:44:57.000 Now that the primary is over, the media machine can now target Tallarico.

01:45:01.000 He's dead.

01:45:01.000 He's out of the water.

01:45:02.000 Why did he tweet out that he was texting a 13 year old?

01:45:05.000 This was in 2013.

01:45:06.000 This is a long time ago.

01:45:07.000 He tweeted it out in 2013.

01:45:09.000 Why did he tweet it out?

01:45:09.000 Yep.

01:45:10.000 Because he was a 24 year old weird teacher who was texting with children and he probably wasn't famous.

01:45:15.000 He wasn't well known.

01:45:16.000 That puts this girl, makes her public, which is weird too, to make a 13 year old's information.

01:45:21.000 Yeah, seriously.

01:45:22.000 Like the hashtag one day is weird.

01:45:23.000 The hashtag is real weird.

01:45:24.000 Like one day, what are you going to get to do one day?

01:45:27.000 Like that's creepy vibes to me.

01:45:29.000 The hashtag is even worse.

01:45:32.000 Like what is the one day about?

01:45:34.000 Former students.

01:45:35.000 Oh, so he's.

01:45:36.000 To me, that would read one day he's going to.

01:45:39.000 Get his objective and do something with this Herrera.

01:45:43.000 What else is in that hash?

01:45:44.000 One day she's going to go to college? 0.73

01:45:46.000 Well, let's click it and see what happens.

01:45:49.000 I'm actually worried about what might pop up from this, so maybe we shouldn't.

01:45:52.000 We should screen it first.

01:45:53.000 Yeah.

01:45:54.000 But still, one day. 0.94

01:45:57.000 Maybe it was just one day she'll get into college.

01:45:59.000 Bro. 0.73

01:46:00.000 Nah, it's a bunch of meaningless nonsense. 0.84

01:46:04.000 Yeah.

01:46:04.000 His name reminds me of Talladega.

01:46:06.000 He's got that going for him. 0.92

01:46:07.000 That's probably the weirdest part about him he has a really Italian last name, but he's a Protestant. 0.99

01:46:11.000 That's That's probably the most disturbing part of all of it. 1.00

01:46:13.000 Yeah, that can't be permitted.

01:46:15.000 And what happened? 0.83

01:46:15.000 Was he like a Potemkin candidate? 0.83

01:46:17.000 Did someone just like install this guy? 0.53

01:46:20.000 The Democrats are betting on him because he's masquerading as a moderate Christian with liberal values.

01:46:26.000 So they're hoping that he can get the middle of the road.

01:46:29.000 The problem is he's really weird.

01:46:32.000 Yeah, I think they.

01:46:33.000 He looks weird.

01:46:34.000 I think they initially thought he was like more of a David French type.

01:46:39.000 And then it's turned out that he's just like a literal creep.

01:46:42.000 I really think he's a creepy dude.

01:46:44.000 And he said.

01:46:45.000 He said his campaign in 2022 had to go vegan.

01:46:49.000 And now he's trying to run for a state position in the largest cattle ranching state in the country.

01:46:54.000 One of the biggest cattle producers in the world, in fact.

01:46:57.000 This text message alone, like you reaching out to underage girls at 11 o'clock at night, should be just an automatic disqualifying.

01:47:05.000 Disqualifying.

01:47:06.000 Yeah.

01:47:06.000 And you put it out there.

01:47:07.000 It's not like anybody's making it up or there's any investigation that needs to be done here.

01:47:13.000 You put it up there yourself.

01:47:14.000 It's weird.

01:47:15.000 She's a middle schooler talking about going to high school, and he's texting with her. 1.00

01:47:20.000 The Krasnsteins are losing their mind. 1.00

01:47:21.000 They were like, She saw it at midnight.

01:47:23.000 Doesn't mean he was talking.

01:47:24.000 Bro, she's actively typing.

01:47:27.000 His phone says it's midnight.

01:47:29.000 She's responding to his message she just saw.

01:47:32.000 And there's no timestamp on any of the other messages implying it all just happened.

01:47:36.000 That's how timestamps went.

01:47:37.000 When did he tweet it out?

01:47:38.000 Oh, shortly after 11 58.

01:47:40.000 Well, I wonder if November 12th was a weekday or weekend, too.

01:47:44.000 Oh, that's a good point.

01:47:45.000 Let's find out.

01:47:46.000 Let's find out. 0.96

01:47:47.000 So gross. 0.69

01:47:48.000 November 12th.

01:47:49.000 Texting a middle schooler at 2 p.m. on a weekday would still be weird.

01:47:52.000 It was a Tuesday.

01:47:53.000 He was texting a middle schooler on midnight on a Tuesday.

01:47:58.000 She should be in bed.

01:47:59.000 Also, she should be in bed.

01:48:00.000 First of all, she shouldn't even have a phone.

01:48:02.000 Also, people have pointed out that was 11, 12, 13.

01:48:08.000 That's the date.

01:48:09.000 The date was 11, 12, 13.

01:48:10.000 Ooh.

01:48:12.000 Hashtag one day.

01:48:16.000 Dude, what is this world coming to?

01:48:19.000 I think we're all cooked.

01:48:20.000 I think this is done.

01:48:21.000 I agree.

01:48:21.000 We are totally on the downward.

01:48:25.000 Yeah, I mean, I think they.

01:48:26.000 Unless we have some crusades to come back.

01:48:28.000 Other than that, we're done.

01:48:30.000 A crusade?

01:48:31.000 Well, you know what the problem is?

01:48:34.000 Like you, you were talking earlier about how angle like smart angles made successful countries, but they weren't. 1.00

01:48:39.000 It's not that they were smart angles, it's that they were smart, brutal anglos, yeah, yeah, yeah. 1.00

01:48:44.000 I mean, I'm afraid to say that stuff on your show. 1.00

01:48:47.000 No, I mean, it's true that like it is a fact that white colonists were brutal. 0.93

01:48:52.000 Well, the part that I want to say that you want them to go back to being brutal, correct? 0.94

01:48:56.000 Yes, I'm always like, oh, it's funny how whenever you come on, everyone's just like, she's the most based.

01:49:03.000 I'm just saying that, like, I really do want that, like, and I know a lot of other people moved to Uruguay. 0.81

01:49:08.000 Cut.

01:49:08.000 Well, I'm thinking it's a plan.

01:49:10.000 Why didn't it go along?

01:49:12.000 It's not even necessarily that they were brutal per se.

01:49:15.000 It's just that they felt like they had the right to civilize a region that was uncivilized.

01:49:19.000 And I think that's like a perfectly natural.

01:49:22.000 Well, the view was back then, like there was a distinction between, like the races were viewed almost like species.

01:49:31.000 Yeah.

01:49:32.000 My thing is, it should be.

01:49:32.000 Broadly.

01:49:33.000 That's why race mixing was illegal. 1.00

01:49:35.000 This is really important. 0.97

01:49:36.000 Race mixing was viewed back then the way bestiality is viewed now. 0.72

01:49:40.000 Get out of as much bestiality. 0.78

01:49:42.000 It's kind of like pigeons doing canaries.

01:49:44.000 No, Like, back, miscegenation laws only went away in the past 60 years.

01:49:52.000 200 years ago, they viewed it morally similar. 0.60

01:49:57.000 That if a white person and a black person were together, they viewed that morally the same as like a dude banging a sheep.

01:50:04.000 Yeah, I'm just, I feel like because for, like, they said, a lot of, they also thought, like, oh, it's a crime.

01:50:10.000 They thought it wouldn't be.

01:50:12.000 Productive reproductively, like kind of like I said, like a pigeon and a canary.

01:50:15.000 Like, how's that going to happen?

01:50:16.000 Well, I mean, they were having kids.

01:50:18.000 Yeah, I know.

01:50:19.000 Lots of slave masters had mixed race kids with their slaves.

01:50:22.000 Yeah, it goes back to like anyone that is a founding stock, whether you're white or black. 0.56

01:50:25.000 If you're white and a founding stock, you probably do have like a bit of black ancestry, and then black Americans will likely have a bit of white ancestry. 0.65

01:50:33.000 I think different groups existed for a reason, right?

01:50:39.000 Whatever reason that would be, whatever nature has decided.

01:50:42.000 That they have different people.

01:50:44.000 Ian points out that the Tibetan fox has slanty eyes. 1.00

01:50:48.000 And that's why Asians have, because of the Tibetan plains or whatever. 1.00

01:50:51.000 I think black people probably have darker skin because of the area of the world their ancestors were in. 1.00

01:50:56.000 Correct. 1.00

01:50:57.000 Bro, the Tibetan fox is like the greatest image ever. 0.53

01:51:01.000 Along with that came different customs and different.

01:51:04.000 Because he kind of looks like me.

01:51:06.000 He kind of looks like me.

01:51:08.000 Genghis Khan, he does look like Tim.

01:51:10.000 Like, obviously.

01:51:11.000 Genghis.

01:51:12.000 Bro, look at his face.

01:51:14.000 He looks almost smug.

01:51:15.000 You know, super chill. 1.00

01:51:17.000 It's like when, yeah, whenever we order food, he's got slight Asians figured it out, dude. 1.00

01:51:22.000 At least they look like they did, bro. 1.00

01:51:23.000 He literally looks like if you were gonna draw, like, if you were drawing an Asian Looney Tunes, you know what I mean? 1.00

01:51:31.000 Like, that's what you would draw.

01:51:32.000 It's so amazing. 0.69

01:51:33.000 I mean, this is the most wonderful evidence of the what race, racial realism. 0.72

01:51:37.000 Is that what it's called? 0.83

01:51:38.000 Race realism.

01:51:40.000 Duh, we're all different for because of the right environment shifted our answers.

01:51:44.000 Well, I think there's something good to that, and I think those separate, I don't think that we need to blend everything so that we're all like.

01:51:50.000 One big whatever.

01:51:51.000 I mean, it's a very unique and special about preserving those things.

01:51:56.000 And it's also like very natural that you'd want your children to look like you.

01:51:59.000 I don't think.

01:51:59.000 I don't, I don't, I don't, I, cause the, the value of crossbreeding genetics is you get the best from both.

01:52:05.000 Nah, I was very worried, very worried with my Greek husband that he has, he, his genes were going to take over.

01:52:10.000 They did not.

01:52:11.000 My children are spitting images of me.

01:52:13.000 I'm so down in Tzatziki all the time.

01:52:15.000 Well, I, I, I heard that like it changes actually.

01:52:18.000 Like the babies will look like one of the parents and then slowly over time slowly start to look like the other parent.

01:52:23.000 I mean, they do have different. 0.72

01:52:24.000 I mean, were you in kind of weird situation growing up where it was like you weren't Asian enough for the Asians but not white enough for the whites?

01:52:28.000 That's my whole life.

01:52:29.000 Yeah, I hear it's like a very common sentiment.

01:52:31.000 I did, uh, I was doing, well, So here's the thing though.

01:52:34.000 I never thought you had only the woke American Asians.

01:52:37.000 Like regular, it's actually interesting.

01:52:40.000 I'm only a quarter, but if I went to like Chinatown, like the old Chinese lady would be like, which one of your parents is Asian?

01:52:47.000 And I'd be like, oh, you can tell. 0.90

01:52:48.000 Like, oh, yeah, of course.

01:52:49.000 If I go, like when I went to Seoul, they were all super excited.

01:52:52.000 They were like, we wanted to learn more about you.

01:52:54.000 And I was talking to this Korean woman.

01:52:57.000 She was born in America, but she did work in Korea.

01:53:00.000 She was like, oh, North Korea will lock you right in the door.

01:53:03.000 Like, if you want to go to North Korea, they'll let you in.

01:53:05.000 And you're a novelty.

01:53:07.000 They'll tell us about your ancestry.

01:53:09.000 How did this happen? 1.00

01:53:10.000 But the woke people are just the most vile, disgusting people. 0.90

01:53:13.000 I was doing a report for Fusion on Cop Watch, activists who were like, you know, filming police and stuff like this. 0.98

01:53:23.000 And one of the women was explaining to me how cops are racist and how, you know, growing up in the United States and having to deal with it.

01:53:31.000 And when I agreed with her and mentioned things my family had dealt with, she attacked me immediately and said, you're not.

01:53:37.000 You're not Asian enough.

01:53:37.000 Real Asian.

01:53:38.000 You don't understand what you're talking about. 0.80

01:53:39.000 She was born in America, but she was 100% Asian of some sort. 1.00

01:53:43.000 And that's just like the most offensive thing to me. 1.00

01:53:45.000 It's like, oh, shove off.

01:53:46.000 You think you're so high and mighty.

01:53:47.000 You think you're so special.

01:53:50.000 It reminds me of that morality study that they said.

01:53:52.000 I'm going to send it to you in a second.

01:53:53.000 Keep talking.

01:53:54.000 When you go in high winds, Tim, do you have to squint less?

01:53:58.000 I don't squint at all.

01:54:00.000 That's nice. 0.99

01:54:01.000 And when I get into fights, punches roll off my round Korean face. 1.00

01:54:06.000 Oh, awesome. 1.00

01:54:08.000 You're Built no, I got excited for a minute. 0.87

01:54:12.000 There's that old joke about like they were holding a group of Chinese people hostage and they blindfolded them with dental floss.

01:54:19.000 There's that study I want you to look at real quick, just because you just said that in the Tim Kiss um slack.

01:54:24.000 I don't know if there's a drawback to having the eye.

01:54:26.000 What is this?

01:54:27.000 I can't read it.

01:54:28.000 I don't know if that's like ethnically.

01:54:31.000 Is there a drawback to it?

01:54:32.000 Epithelial because it is a trick.

01:54:34.000 This, this psychobellum, yeah, epithelial.

01:54:37.000 So, like, did you, yeah.

01:54:39.000 Oh, it is true.

01:54:39.000 Does it hinder our eyes?

01:54:40.000 The more a person claims to be moral, that one?

01:54:42.000 Yeah, the more ruthlessly they treat others and the more lenient they treat themselves.

01:54:45.000 My eyes are pretty narrow.

01:54:47.000 Yeah, they are.

01:54:48.000 I have the same view.

01:54:49.000 That is the left.

01:54:50.000 The original was in Turkish.

01:54:51.000 Yeah, that's true.

01:54:52.000 Do you guys want to learn something really interesting?

01:54:53.000 Yeah, but I think it is Asian ancestry. 0.99

01:54:57.000 I think my eyes might be more narrow than Tim's.

01:54:59.000 So there's a food in Turkey called Iskender kebab.

01:55:04.000 And do you know why it's called Iskender?

01:55:06.000 No.

01:55:07.000 Because Alexander the Great, When he came in, they thought Al, which means the, they thought his name was the Iskander.

01:55:15.000 Yeah.

01:55:16.000 So they thought the proper noun was Iskander. 1.00

01:55:19.000 That's funny. 0.99

01:55:20.000 I like that.

01:55:20.000 Alexander.

01:55:21.000 Alexander.

01:55:22.000 They thought it was the Iskander.

01:55:24.000 Isn't that crazy?

01:55:24.000 Oh.

01:55:25.000 Where is this from?

01:55:26.000 Turkey.

01:55:27.000 This is a Turkish.

01:55:28.000 Oh, the food.

01:55:29.000 Did you guys know that in Turkey, they have a dessert where you pull chicken and then mix it with a milk custard until it solidifies?

01:55:39.000 And, uh, I went to, I was, when I was in Turkey, Turkey is fantastic.

01:55:41.000 I love Turkey, by the way.

01:55:42.000 I like milk custard in general.

01:55:44.000 So they have like, it looks like a, so it looks like a pudding almost, a little, a little firm though, like a flan.

01:55:51.000 And they, they burn the top with a torch.

01:55:54.000 And I was like, oh, I'll get that dessert.

01:55:54.000 And I didn't know what it was.

01:55:56.000 And I'm eating it.

01:55:57.000 And my friend, he's like, you know, that's chicken, right?

01:55:59.000 And I was like, what are you talking about?

01:56:01.000 And he's like, it's chicken.

01:56:01.000 It's like a pudding.

01:56:03.000 And I was like, you're joking.

01:56:04.000 And he's like, they pull the chicken and then they mix like milk, sugar, and egg into a custard.

01:56:10.000 And it's chicken.

01:56:11.000 That kind of sounds great because then you get the protein and you get the good.

01:56:15.000 Do you guys remember junket?

01:56:16.000 Like vanilla junket?

01:56:17.000 No.

01:56:18.000 Oh, they don't even make it anywhere.

01:56:19.000 It's the best dessert on the planet.

01:56:22.000 Vanilla junket.

01:56:23.000 They don't make it. 1.00

01:56:24.000 Junket. 1.00

01:56:24.000 J U N K E. Chicken. 1.00

01:56:25.000 It's tuvu gosku. 0.71

01:56:27.000 Oh, yeah, here.

01:56:28.000 Check it out.

01:56:28.000 Here it is right here.

01:56:28.000 Check it out.

01:56:29.000 I think this is it.

01:56:31.000 It's, yeah.

01:56:33.000 There you go.

01:56:33.000 It's milk pudding with shredded chicken breast.

01:56:36.000 I bet it's delicious.

01:56:38.000 It is amazing.

01:56:39.000 I didn't even know it was a chicken house.

01:56:40.000 It's so good.

01:56:41.000 Any type of milk custard I'm down for.

01:56:42.000 Dude, Istanbul is a lot of fun.

01:56:45.000 Did you tour through Anatolia at all?

01:56:45.000 It's a lot of fun.

01:56:48.000 No.

01:56:49.000 I've been to Istanbul and Antalya.

01:56:50.000 Did you go to Haya Sofia?

01:56:52.000 Uh uh.

01:56:53.000 There's so much history.

01:56:54.000 That's where I'd want to go.

01:56:55.000 What's crazy is they have these bakeries where they pour the dough.

01:57:00.000 It's like little strings.

01:57:02.000 Into a big frying vat and make these big circular grain, like fried dough discs, and then they dip the whole thing in syrup.

01:57:09.000 That's what they eat.

01:57:10.000 That sounds delicious to me.

01:57:11.000 It's amazing.

01:57:12.000 Real baklava at a real baklava bakery is, you know.

01:57:16.000 What's better than baklava?

01:57:17.000 Galato Budico.

01:57:19.000 That is terrible.

01:57:20.000 I got to tell you.

01:57:21.000 I got to tell you.

01:57:21.000 So, like in Chicago, of course, we had Mediterranean restaurants and you could get baklava.

01:57:26.000 And I was always like, it's good.

01:57:27.000 You know, file of dough with nuts.

01:57:28.000 Then I go to Taksim and they have these famous baklava shops from like the 1800s or whatever.

01:57:34.000 Indescribably different.

01:57:36.000 Amazing.

01:57:38.000 Honey, pistachio, walnut.

01:57:41.000 Man.

01:57:42.000 I have Greek in laws that make that homemade. 0.90

01:57:44.000 It's infinitely better.

01:57:46.000 But I have to stress this.

01:57:47.000 I have to stress something.

01:57:49.000 I got to stress this to all of the people out there who are watching this show.

01:57:53.000 You must, you must, you must get yourself a wet hamburger.

01:57:57.000 What?

01:57:58.000 Yeah.

01:57:58.000 What was that?

01:57:59.000 It's called the Islak hamburger.

01:58:02.000 And it's just, it's so good.

01:58:06.000 It's street, they call it street food, but what they do is, So we'd, we'd, like, I'm in, I'm in, I was in Istanbul for a couple weeks.

01:58:12.000 So late at night when we were like, we'd hit the bar or whatever, and we're like, all right, let's go back to a hotel.

01:58:17.000 There's a place like right below the hotel where you take, it's a, it's a, it's a lamb burger.

01:58:22.000 I think it's, it's like lamb, ground, ground lamb.

01:58:25.000 Lamb's so good.

01:58:26.000 Put it on a bun, nothing else.

01:58:28.000 And they dunk the whole thing in an oily, like, tomato pepper oatmeal.

01:58:33.000 I could, I could get down with that.

01:58:34.000 And it's like their White Castle.

01:58:35.000 You ever have White Castle?

01:58:37.000 I've never had White Castle.

01:58:38.000 I've never had, yeah, would you know what it is?

01:58:39.000 Yeah, I do know what it is.

01:58:40.000 White Castle sliders are like that late night.

01:58:42.000 I'm drunk and hungry food.

01:58:43.000 And that's what a wet hamburger is.

01:58:45.000 They're called Islak burgers.

01:58:46.000 Sliders.

01:58:47.000 Okay, so it's ground beef.

01:58:48.000 Tomato, garlic, tomato paste, sugar, spices.

01:58:50.000 Yeah, it sounds a little bit.

01:58:51.000 And they're like a buck.

01:58:52.000 And you'd walk in and just like they have them under a heat lamp and you just.

01:58:56.000 I love street food though, like that anywhere I go.

01:58:58.000 Like I just, I do like.

01:58:59.000 Walking down Istiklal Boulevard, the big merchant, like Boulevard in Istanbul.

01:58:59.000 Oh, dude.

01:59:04.000 And they have big, there'll be a guy in a street corner with a big bucket full of clams.

01:59:09.000 And people just walk up and then they toss him some money and they hand you the clam, spray some lemon, you eat it.

01:59:13.000 And they're literally pulled from the water, like, just.

01:59:16.000 Any of those street foods, oils, like in China, I've read they use gutter oil where they're like, fine, that's China.

01:59:16.000 Straight up.

01:59:22.000 Or motor oil in the street and use that, or in India, whatever they consider. 0.84

01:59:26.000 Kind of where they did the fried rocks.

01:59:28.000 All right, right.

01:59:29.000 You guys got to get some questions in right now.

01:59:31.000 We're going to get a few minutes for questions.

01:59:33.000 Taylor Ren's ex wife says, Tim, please make one recommendation of something I should do when I'm in Seoul in July.

01:59:38.000 I guess it depends on what you want to do.

01:59:40.000 I'll give you a handful of recommendations.

01:59:42.000 When I was there, I was there with Luke Rdkowski.

01:59:43.000 We had a lot of fun.

01:59:44.000 We went to this war museum and it was the funniest thing ever because.

01:59:51.000 It was like talking about this great Korean general, this naval general.

01:59:55.000 And it was like, there's a little diagram of the ships, the Korean ships, defeating the Japanese.

02:00:02.000 And you're following this timeline of his great military victories.

02:00:06.000 The only problem is, it's like, here at the great battle, 500 Korean ships met 500 Japanese ships, and the general won a tremendous victory.

02:00:15.000 And then you walk to the next display, and it's like, in the next great battle, 300 Korean ships confronted the 500 Japanese ships in a tremendous victory.

02:00:24.000 They were routed. 0.52

02:00:25.000 And then you walk to the next one, and it's like, The general's next famous battle, where 100 Korean chips were up against 500 Jeb.

02:00:31.000 And I'm like, wait, wait, wait, hold on.

02:00:33.000 It sounds like he's losing.

02:00:35.000 Basically, what they were doing was they were like, out of the 50 battles where he won three, they highlight the three great battles of this general, but he's just getting crushed the whole time.

02:00:44.000 Oh, brilliant.

02:00:44.000 That's fun.

02:00:45.000 You can go to the raccoon cafes, the dog cafes.

02:00:48.000 I don't recommend the dog cafes.

02:00:50.000 People think you go to a dog cafe and it's like you eat food and the dogs are all nice and polite.

02:00:55.000 Nope.

02:00:55.000 They open the door, the dogs run in, slobber their.

02:00:59.000 Pissing and pooping everywhere, jump up on the table going at you, and you gotta like, you're not having a good time.

02:01:05.000 The raccoon cafes aren't even really cafes.

02:01:07.000 You just go into a building where there's raccoons sitting there eating, and it's fun.

02:01:10.000 You can pet them and stuff.

02:01:11.000 Yeah, I like the raccoon.

02:01:12.000 I recommend Korean barbecue because it is the greatest thing ever.

02:01:16.000 Just the best food, healthy meat, bogo ghee. 0.91

02:01:19.000 You gotta get bogo ghee.

02:01:20.000 Everybody knows it. 0.95

02:01:21.000 And, you know, good fun, good fun.

02:01:25.000 No.

02:01:26.000 Tokyo's great too.

02:01:27.000 What is it about the Korean barbecue that's better than just regular barbecue? 0.92

02:01:30.000 Korean barbecue is not barbecue.

02:01:32.000 In the American sense, Korean barbecue is they give you raw meat and you cook it on the grill, right?

02:01:37.000 Yeah.

02:01:38.000 So if you can get marinated stuff too, but what I love about Korean barbecue is we go and I'll just say, give me non marinated short rib and give me non marinated thinly cut pork belly, and then you eat it with some kimchi.

02:01:38.000 Yeah.

02:01:51.000 We did that in Florida. 1.00

02:01:54.000 By the way, I just love kimchi pulls microplastics out of your gut. 1.00

02:01:58.000 So they say?

02:01:58.000 It's a great article I just posted on Twitter.

02:02:00.000 You know, I got to say, when I was a kid, I hated kimchi. 1.00

02:02:03.000 Now I love it. 1.00

02:02:04.000 It's amazing.

02:02:05.000 And I'll give you a funny story.

02:02:06.000 This one's for my daughter when she's old enough and she can watch these old episodes.

02:02:10.000 She grabs this decently sized piece of kimchi and she puts it in her mouth and just, she's only got one tooth.

02:02:16.000 She's on it. 0.81

02:02:17.000 And then she goes, and then we start laughing.

02:02:20.000 And then she just goes right back for it and she finished. 0.96

02:02:21.000 She loves kimchi. 1.00

02:02:23.000 The funniest thing ever was when my mother in law was like, have her try blue cheese. 1.00

02:02:23.000 That's about how it goes. 1.00

02:02:29.000 And she's like, and so, you know, gave her the blue cheese. 0.99

02:02:34.000 And It looked like she was having a seizure.

02:02:36.000 It's like, I started wiping it off her.

02:02:39.000 That's how I felt.

02:02:40.000 I still don't like blue cheeks.

02:02:40.000 My daughter used to eat raw onions when she was a baby.

02:02:43.000 She loved it.

02:02:44.000 Like, my dad would go on the boardwalk and they had this, like, place where you get roast beef and they serve raw onions in a little cup and she would take them by the handful and eat them.

02:02:51.000 I ate it like an apple once.

02:02:54.000 Let's grab some of these questions.

02:02:55.000 We got Asfera says, How do you like the Chandra skate deck?

02:02:59.000 I see it in frame.

02:03:00.000 It's great.

02:03:01.000 We put it on the Magic the Gathering shelf and you can see it now when we have guests in that chair.

02:03:05.000 You can see it.

02:03:06.000 Appreciate it, man.

02:03:06.000 Really do.

02:03:07.000 It's fantastic.

02:03:07.000 Big Magic the Gathering fan.

02:03:09.000 Chandra and I have not seen it.

02:03:10.000 Did you see Russia hitting a NATO country with a missile?

02:03:13.000 I did. 0.85

02:03:14.000 I did.

02:03:15.000 I don't know.

02:03:16.000 You know, I guess we were just kind of goofing off today. 0.98

02:03:19.000 Yeah, was it Romania?

02:03:21.000 Who got hit?

02:03:21.000 I think it was Romania.

02:03:22.000 Yeah, something like that.

02:03:25.000 All right.

02:03:26.000 Next up, here we go.

02:03:27.000 We've got Doc Doc Bohm.

02:03:30.000 It's just been exposed that the bad Maryland ballots already mailed out, which voters were told have been voided, are in fact not void, and MD voters are now being told to use them.

02:03:38.000 At this point, is it even possible to trust our elections at all?

02:03:41.000 Oh, and Tate is a mean man for refusing to pick me up to crowd surf at the ATR show.

02:03:46.000 Tate Brown held me down.

02:03:48.000 I'm so sorry.

02:03:48.000 Oh, man.

02:03:50.000 First of all, the only reason that Tate was crowd surfing at all was because I did it first.

02:03:54.000 Yeah, I know.

02:03:55.000 We really needed Lisa there.

02:03:56.000 If you felt shortchanged by the crowd surfing situation, it's because Lisa wasn't there.

02:04:00.000 So I would say the blame should actually be applied to Lisa.

02:04:02.000 Fair.

02:04:03.000 Okay.

02:04:03.000 We got a question here.

02:04:04.000 Let's grab, let's see if we can get a couple more in here.

02:04:06.000 We got I, Gregor. 1.00

02:04:09.000 Do you guys think people would stop immigrating here and move back if we started fining these countries for the citizens invading ours? 0.97

02:04:15.000 Then, if they don't start paying by a certain date, we bomb certain areas and conquer it as our own? 0.96

02:04:19.000 I like this plan.

02:04:21.000 I got to be honest.

02:04:22.000 Would people stop coming here if we threatened to bomb their home countries and take over? 0.87

02:04:27.000 The answer is yes. 0.98

02:04:29.000 But then they'd still be here because we took their countries. 1.00

02:04:31.000 So they'd. 0.99

02:04:32.000 No, they wouldn't.

02:04:33.000 We sent them home first. 1.00

02:04:34.000 If we conquer their country, they are here. 1.00

02:04:37.000 Get it? 1.00

02:04:37.000 Oh, yeah, yeah. 1.00

02:04:38.000 Yeah, if we make Guatemala the 51st state, they are now here. 0.98

02:04:41.000 If we bomb it first. 0.96

02:04:42.000 They don't pay the fines first, right?

02:04:43.000 Can we make it a state and not let them have a.

02:04:46.000 I have a question for you, Lisa. 0.89

02:04:48.000 They say that, you know, there are people who say like we should turn the Middle East to glass.

02:04:52.000 What substance would Guatemala turn into?

02:04:55.000 It's not sand, it wouldn't become glass, smoldering ash.

02:04:59.000 But that's not funny.

02:05:01.000 Glass is funny because of the implication, you know.

02:05:03.000 Yeah, I don't care what it turns into.

02:05:05.000 I think it would improve.

02:05:06.000 I think Guatemala would just improve overnight.

02:05:11.000 But they no longer have bananas.

02:05:13.000 Wouldn't the soil eventually, like as long as we didn't do with like chemical radioactive stuff, wouldn't it eventually like turn over and all that organic material would go in and like get back into the soil and become extremely fertile? 0.99

02:05:24.000 What we need is an alligator moat stretching the entire southern border.

02:05:28.000 Wasn't that what they claim Trump suggested that?

02:05:31.000 Why don't we put piranhas in the Rio Grande?

02:05:33.000 That would follow.

02:05:36.000 Are they not already in it?

02:05:37.000 I don't know.

02:05:38.000 They're only in Africa. 1.00

02:05:38.000 We need to. 1.00

02:05:39.000 We're just toast anyway.

02:05:41.000 I'm sorry.

02:05:42.000 I say we all go to Uruguay.

02:05:46.000 There's a lot more to the question, but he adds related to the cousin talk earlier.

02:05:51.000 What if that is the real reason population is decreasing?

02:05:53.000 It's because a large chunk of the population just isn't into it anymore since they can't be related. 1.00

02:05:59.000 That's why immigrants are reproducing at higher rates. 1.00

02:06:01.000 Why are you saying they're all banging their cousins? 1.00

02:06:03.000 No, I just think it's because women are brainwashed and their minds have been polluted, and that's the real problem. 1.00

02:06:11.000 Yeah. 0.99

02:06:12.000 Haiti says, I appreciate you informing me about some of the info I missed yesterday involving Massey's poll.

02:06:17.000 I might have been better informed if you came around and talked on occasion here in what is supposed to be your Discord.

02:06:22.000 Question for the panel How can we get Vivek charged for the volumes of fraud he committed with the miserably failed Alzheimer's medicine and get Casey Push into the running for governor?

02:06:30.000 Can we get Trump to hold him accountable?

02:06:32.000 If not, who do we go to? 0.85

02:06:33.000 Nobody, because Trump's pro H1B.

02:06:35.000 Which is also a ball.

02:06:38.000 I've got to be nice.

02:06:39.000 It's a little problematic.

02:06:41.000 You know, I want no one else to come in here.

02:06:44.000 Ever.

02:06:44.000 You what?

02:06:45.000 I want no one else to come in here ever.

02:06:47.000 Ever again.

02:06:47.000 Why?

02:06:48.000 I don't even want you to visit.

02:06:49.000 Yeah.

02:06:50.000 It's time to go to Uruguay.

02:06:52.000 Uruguay.

02:06:52.000 That's what we should do.

02:06:54.000 I made a post after Massey made his post and I said, What is the greatest threat to liberty in the United States? 0.91

02:06:59.000 And I said, Russia, China, Iran, not Israel, though they're great. 0.84

02:07:02.000 Those are your choices.

02:07:03.000 And then all the anti Israel people were so mad.

02:07:05.000 I'd be like, Well, I'm going to pick it anyway.

02:07:07.000 And I'm like, So you think Israel's great? 1.00

02:07:08.000 Yeah. 1.00

02:07:10.000 It's a trap.

02:07:11.000 All right, everybody.

02:07:14.000 Smash the like button, share the show with everyone.

02:07:15.000 You know, it's been fun.

02:07:17.000 This is great.

02:07:18.000 Yeah.

02:07:18.000 Oh, it's fun.

02:07:19.000 Fridays are always just so chill and so much more fun.

02:07:21.000 That's why I was like, let's just roll and, you know, and.

02:07:23.000 Let's start playing music again on Fridays.

02:07:24.000 Yeah.

02:07:25.000 We've talked about doing it.

02:07:26.000 Yeah.

02:07:27.000 Used to take a nap at the end of the show. 0.99

02:07:28.000 It's always fun having Lisa around when she says things like she wants to get rid of sand countries or whatever. 1.00

02:07:32.000 I still mean to stand by it 100%. 0.99

02:07:33.000 Do not mince words.

02:07:34.000 I mean to.

02:07:35.000 Do you want to shine anything up?

02:07:36.000 No.

02:07:37.000 Just thank you for having me.

02:07:38.000 It's been good to be down here.

02:07:40.000 I should.

02:07:40.000 Stop in a little more.

02:07:41.000 It's just such a long time.

02:07:42.000 Oh, we set up the DC studio.

02:07:44.000 But we're hoping to have one.

02:07:44.000 That'll be down all the time.

02:07:47.000 We're looking to set up a temporary one almost immediately as we build out a full set.

02:07:52.000 And it's going to be crazy.

02:07:53.000 It's going to be a lot crazier.

02:07:54.000 I'll get to that Monday.

02:07:55.000 So I'll get more info then.

02:07:56.000 Yeah.

02:07:57.000 Yeah.

02:08:00.000 Come give me a follow.

02:08:01.000 And make sure you follow.

02:08:02.000 She won't ever shout out.

02:08:02.000 She's too humble.

02:08:03.000 Make sure you follow Lisa Reynolds on Twitter.

02:08:05.000 That is vital, a vital essence.

02:08:06.000 You're missing out on vital Patriot correspondence if you're not following.

02:08:09.000 I honestly don't want people to think that I'm trying to be an influencer or something.

02:08:14.000 I've never tried to grow any of my pages.

02:08:16.000 Like, that's not my MO.

02:08:17.000 I've seen you tell people to unfollow you, but the following count still goes up.

02:08:20.000 It does.

02:08:20.000 People just are desperate to hear.

02:08:21.000 From you.

02:08:23.000 I'll try.

02:08:23.000 Maybe I should tweet a little more.

02:08:24.000 I was making a couple hundred bucks a month for a minute, but.

02:08:29.000 That's where it's at.

02:08:30.000 Now I just retweet.

02:08:31.000 At Twitter.

02:08:31.000 Follow me at Ian Crossland on the internet.

02:08:33.000 I'm pretty much all over the place, so hit me up anytime.

02:08:36.000 I probably won't respond.

02:08:37.000 Good to see you, Carter Banks.

02:08:39.000 He won't respond, but he reads everything.

02:08:42.000 And I also read the ones that I'm tagged in talking about swear jars and whatnot.

02:08:47.000 But you can follow me at Carter Banks everywhere and the label Trash House Records on YouTube.

02:08:52.000 Tim.
