The drone mystery has been solved, ladies and gentlemen. The government was doing technology development. That's it. An Air Force base got a contract to fly some drones around. People panicked. The documentation was all there for the public for 8 years. And the local airports and FAA were giving out warnings. There's no mystery, just bad journalism and people being bored.
00:02:17.000Look at that picture of Phil Labonte, lead singer of All That Remains, dressed like Santa Claus with a baseball cap, Santa Claus cap, or whatever.
00:02:25.000And he is singing Two Weeks Till Christmas.

00:04:42.000For all of the women who like watching their true crime or paranormal podcasts, let us put that flame out.
00:04:49.000Uncovered files reveal secret operation at the center of the drone invasion and why the White House can deny it.
00:04:55.000Well, despite the fact it's a mundane story that's basically very boring, rest assured the Daily Mail is going to try and make that headline a little bit more sensational.
00:05:07.000Official records show the Army has been developing and testing counter-terror drones in New Jersey for years amid claims of a government cover-up.
00:05:14.000A 2018 defense contract awarded $50 million in private robotics company to develop craft capable of creating 3D maps of urban areas for a counter-weapons of mass destruction program.
00:05:23.000The contract was given out by the Army's Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center, RDAC, which is located at the Picatinny Arsenal in Rockaway, New Jersey, where mystery drones were first reported last month.
00:05:34.000Meanwhile, documents show the FAA issued an air restriction alert on November 21, prohibiting flights over the Picatinny Air Base for special security reasons.
00:05:43.000The White House has claimed the drone sightings, which coincidentally began on November 18, are not a foreign adversary, pose no threat, and are not part of a U.S. military operation.
00:05:51.000Retired CIA intel officer Rudy Ridolfi told Daily Mail, this FAA notice shows U.S. drone testing is happening in the area.
00:05:59.000It's a warning for others to stay out of the area during those dates.
00:06:03.000While the nature of the testing isn't specified, it's most likely the testing of payloads related to reconnaissance.
00:06:36.000You know, there's a conspiracy going viral about how the government was going to use nuclear materials for a false flag as a means to create more lockdowns and scare people.
00:06:46.000And I was like, this stuff never happens, dude.
00:06:48.000I gotta say, like, I'll take some credit for predicting this, that it was likely some government testing thing.
00:07:52.000We now have reporting that since 2018, they have been doing these drone testings in this area, and the FAA actually issued an alert about the drone tests.
00:08:00.000And so that's probably what people saw in the first place, panicked.
00:08:13.000New Jersey Guide to Aircraft Identification, and it's every single aircraft is a drone.
00:08:17.000It's like, I mean, it is interesting the way that once things start being, you know, once there's a few people talking about something, then more and more people are looking and start, you know, misidentifying normal then more and more people are looking and start, you know, misidentifying normal aircraft, which have flown over their heads thousands
00:08:40.000And it's never been a thing, but because curious drones are, you know, at the top of people's mind.
00:08:49.000They're like, oh, look, maybe that's a drone.
00:08:52.000Because everybody wants to believe that it's something interesting, right?
00:08:55.000Like the whole reason this stuff catches on is because everyone is like, maybe it's this secret thing.
00:11:45.000A sign that politics stopped being the thing that everybody was doing and we could just hang out with people that have different politics and, you know, agree that we don't have to agree, but we can still be civil to each other.
00:11:59.000One of the first segments we did on this show was a review for Sonic the Hedgehog.
00:13:22.000But he'll be back, and that will be the day they count the votes for Trump.
00:13:27.000So the other news, I guess today was the day they certified Trump won.
00:13:31.000Today was when they actually collected the votes and they were all submitted by the states, confirming that Trump is the winner of the election.
00:13:37.000Now we'll see if Democrats throw a fit on January 6th.
00:14:08.000There was a really great example, actually, of someone gave a critique of David Pakman, liberal guy.
00:14:14.000I don't know if you guys know who he is, where he basically took a mundane interview with Alina Habba and then acted like it was really bad because he had nothing to talk about.
00:14:25.000He was like, oh, she embarrassed herself.
00:14:28.000And it was like just mundane, normal, normal interview hit.
00:14:33.000And that's kind of the bet is that the big spike in viewership that everybody's been seeing over the past couple of years and the growth of these channels, everyone's going to immediately shift over to like Aiden Ross or something or Mr. Beast.
00:14:46.000And they're just going to be like, yeah, don't need it anymore.
00:14:49.000We're going to watch video games again.
00:16:23.000When it comes to animated content for our younger audience, we recognize that many parents would prefer to discuss certain subjects with their children on their own terms and timeline.
00:17:02.000I immediately asked my mom if I could do it, because it felt like if I don't do this, it wouldn't make sense, you know what I mean?
00:17:07.000Stuart eventually scored the voiceover job for win or lose, which revolves around a co-ed softball team in the middle school, named the Pickles in the week leading up to their big championship game.
00:17:16.000Stuart couldn't wait to share the news with her friends.
00:17:18.000And then they canceled it because Woke is broke, and nobody wants to make this stuff anymore.
00:17:24.000So I'm wondering where we go from here, because it seems like, All the big companies have gotten the message.
00:17:42.000Before the election, we didn't know it was going to happen.
00:17:44.000After the election, it is a snowball that was knocked off the cliff, and by now it is a 10-ton boulder of ice rolling down this mountain.
00:17:53.000With Disney canceling these storylines, and more and more companies basically saying, we're not going to do this woke stuff anymore, seems like absolute victory is fast approaching.
00:18:03.000I mean, there's a lot of people that are really, really unhappy with the idea of...
00:18:10.000Corporations like Disney essentially planting seeds in their children's head.
00:18:16.000If your kid has inclinations to be gay or something like that, they're going to want to explore it.
00:18:23.000And hopefully if you've got a good relationship with your kid, they'll want to talk to you about it.
00:18:29.000But Pixar putting this stuff into movies...
00:18:37.000In essence, it's back to the old centering the margins.
00:18:44.000Well, I mean, it's a political ploy, but as a society, we should not want companies to be centering the margins.
00:18:53.000We should want companies that produce content that's for everybody, that's not specifically for people with gender dysphoria or with people that are gay or bisexual.
00:19:05.000And just make content that is for everybody, including LGBTQ people.
00:19:10.000Instead of only for LGBTQ people, they will make more money.
00:19:14.000And if they don't, they will go out of business and, you know, I could give a damn.
00:19:18.000One of the best things I think that's why we try so hard for was to get Trump, you know, to win.
00:19:22.000Because once he won, since that day, man, since he won and he got the mandate, it's everything feels like everything's changing for the better for us, for mankind, for culture, for the world.
00:19:38.000A lot of people that were previously quiet, I think even in Hollywood and that whole scene, and probably you can talk to this as well, Phil, they kind of just...
00:19:45.000I mean, everyone's mad at them saying, oh, you should be mad at these people for having been scared to come out of the woodwork before, but now they feel emboldened and now they're willing to.
00:19:53.000We shouldn't be like saying rebuking them and telling them off for coming out and standing up against it.
00:19:57.000We should finally be like, yes, normalize it.
00:20:22.000We are six months out, I guarantee you, from all these big networks hiring liberal pundits on massive salaries and putting billboards up in New York and dumping $20 million on YouTube to take this space away.
00:20:34.000There is an ideology on the left and just because there has been a backlash against it from the average person doesn't mean that the left doesn't want to get back to pushing that ideology.
00:20:50.000You know, if there is a plan on the left to have a certain segment of society be the focal point and there's a pushback on it, that doesn't mean that they're going to stop.
00:21:03.000That just means that they'll go ahead and they'll lay off for a little while and then they'll start pushing again, maybe in a different manner.
00:21:10.000But it's still going to be the ideology that they want to see brought to fruition.
00:21:15.000Because there are people on the left that are so ideologically possessed that you can say, no, that's a religion.
00:21:22.000You can easily mistake it for a religion when it comes to people that are looking for a restructuring of society.
00:21:33.000You've been in a lot of places as well.
00:21:34.000Do you have contacts that have maybe observed this?
00:21:37.000I'm sure that you maybe have people that are in your life that have maybe seen this happen in other countries.
00:21:41.000Because what I've personally seen, even in other countries, I know it's the American election, but let's be honest, that's watershed for the world, for the planet.
00:23:15.000They want to watch UFC. I want to watch UFC. Some people watch football.
00:23:19.000And we've been trapped in this world because the people who hate Donald Trump couldn't shut up about it.
00:23:24.000And the media wanted to make money off of it.
00:23:27.000CNN literally hired a guy to do entertainment when Trump came in to turn the whole news industry into WWE. And we're just over here being like, how do we get back to, I don't know, watching a movie about a train with a face that needs to discover what it means to be a train instead of a train that's gay.
00:23:47.000He's got to get over that hill, that train.
00:24:26.000To your point about, you know, people wanting to see, you know, just be entertained and be able to, you know, escape from the day-to-day slog.
00:24:36.000One of the really bad things about the politicization of everything was the fact that you couldn't escape.
00:25:19.000See, I was trapping you in the corner.
00:25:23.000So, I mean, they've the writers and the people that were were were ideologically possessed and believe that their job wasn't just to tell good stories, but was to tell people how they're supposed to think in these stories.
00:28:46.000But they weren't saying anything overtly political.
00:28:49.000They were showing it to you and making fun of the whole scenario.
00:28:52.000I'm not surprised to see that they submitted for the Oscars, as they should, because it is one of the most successful documentaries in decades, and it was an amazing comedy.
00:29:04.000The controversial documentary that satirizes diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives failed to make the Oscar shortlist of nonfiction features today, despite earning more money at the box office than any other documentary this year by far.
00:29:19.000Yes, but they're making it seem like it was a serious documentary.
00:29:26.000His character in the film, a caricature of himself, is trying to do the work to be anti-racist.
00:29:46.000Now that the movie's been out, I don't mind to spoil it, but it's unsurprising to see in Hollywood, in these institutions, they are still trying to say no.
00:29:56.000So what I'll say right now is we've had tremendous victories across the board.
00:30:00.000We now have to entrench everything we're doing as the institution.
00:30:35.000I tell you, what you need now, because Democrats are going to do this, mark my words, they've got to put up billboards and TV commercials for Matt Walsh's show.
00:30:56.000I remember when I worked at Vice, my cousin texted me saying that she was watching Hulu and then all of a sudden heard my voice and looked up and saw me in a Vice commercial because Vice had done a big TV and digital commercial run.
00:32:03.000The Democratic machine, the Uniparty machine, is going to turn around and say, why are we giving Rachel Maddow $25 million for 30,000 viewers when we could put $5 million into insert liberal YouTuber and then put billboards up everywhere and tell people that is the narrative you have to maintain.
00:32:22.000When you're ahead and you have the opportunity to score, you keep scoring.
00:33:43.000When you're ahead, you have to keep scoring because your opponents are not going to stop.
00:33:48.000Just like Tim said the other night, at some point, you know, Disney's going to dump a bunch of money into this space and try to take over the space.
00:33:55.000They're going to find— That's why they're not letting Matt Walsh in.
00:33:58.000The attitude of these people in Hollywood right now are like, they're winning.
00:35:04.000And so one of the biggest bands in the music industry right now, or at least in the hard rock industry, is completely against the message that's been coming out of the entertainment industry for the past, better part of the past 10 years or so.
00:35:22.000So there are victories that are happening.
00:35:24.000And there's a lot of people that are going to respond to that and say, you know what, the whole woke stuff, I'm over it.
00:35:30.000But it took a grassroots effort to do that first.
00:35:35.000It took people that were willing to take that risk.
00:35:36.000You know, Falling in Reverse is a huge band right now.
00:35:41.000But six, seven years ago, and they've been around for ages, six, seven years ago, they were playing clubs.
00:35:47.000They were playing venues that are a thousand caps, and now they're selling out 16,000, 17,000 seat arenas.
00:35:58.000But it's because they were ahead of the curve and they're trendsetters.
00:36:06.000So I think that the general population, we kind of all feel it and see it.
00:36:18.000You look at the way the businesses are responding and there's a lot of energy and excitement about the future for the U.S. How do Democrats respond to this, right?
00:36:27.000They can't keep doing what they're doing.
00:36:30.000They can't just keep making these woke storylines that nobody wants to watch where they're burning money.
00:36:34.000They can't do these Dylan Mulvaney things where they lose a third of their market share in a month, but they have to do something.
00:39:21.000But the reason I ask is because with the Twitch adpocalypse, all these people are losing all of their revenue, all their income, because of accusations of anti-Semitism.
00:39:55.000Yeah, and it's always weird how this horseshoe has come back around, like the far left and far right are meeting on, like, oh, it's the Jews, and it's just where we're at now.
00:40:04.000Okay, so I don't know if she's currently his mod, but I know that she was for a long time, and she was anti-Semitic for a long time.
00:41:27.000And you had people in Times Square celebrating it, cheering, saying that freedom fighters had descended on the occupying force.
00:41:36.000And when people would come out and say they're celebrating Hamas, they're anti-Semitic, many of the liberals and leftists would say, you can't say that they're criticizing Israel, not the Jews.
00:42:25.000Because he did great work with Harris' campaign, and he's going to be maybe the head of the DNC. He should handle the recruitment for their new thriving ecosystem of cultural creators.
00:43:58.000I think that's where he would fall in.
00:44:01.000AOC will say whatever her audience tells her to say.
00:44:04.000So if we just basically 51% attack her Twitter account, then she'll just completely go MAGA. I thought that she already had because of the way that the voting panned out in her district.
00:44:17.000Well, not full MAGA, but for those that don't know what a 51% attack is, it's when you control 51% of nodes in a decentralized system so you can control the direction it moves.
00:44:26.000The idea would be if 51% of AOC's followers and responses are from people who are like, AOC, we're huge fans of yours.
00:45:06.000I don't know if I should save this for the next segment, but we've long lamented, we've long feared the Democrats would create a uniparty system in this country, a literal, you know, single party that controls everything, and it's communist.
00:45:21.000Is that just going to happen with the Republican Party because the Democrats have basically imploded?
00:45:27.000I don't think so, because I think that there is a civil war going on in the Democrats, right, in the Democrat Party right now.
00:45:33.000I think that you have people on the far left that are represented by people like Hassan, people probably like AOC, and their argument is we should have gone further left.
00:45:45.000Their argument is Kamala Harris was too conservative.
00:45:49.000She was too much of a corporate hack, blah, blah, blah.
00:45:55.000All of the indicators are that they're wrong, that if the Democrats had gone further left, they would have lost in a more dramatic way than they did.
00:46:05.000But the argument they make is, oh, the progressives actually stayed home, they didn't come out and vote for Kamala Harris, so actually we would have done better.
00:46:14.000I think they're wrong, but that's what the argument is.
00:46:17.000So the Democrats need to figure out what they're going to do.
00:46:19.000Are they going to go with a more progressive policy?
00:46:22.000Are they going to go more progressive like Hassan would like?
00:46:25.000Or are they going to go back towards people like Fetterman and like Richie Torres and stuff like that?
00:46:30.000I mean, if the Democratic Party decides to moderate and go to the middle, then you basically just have the Republican Party.
00:46:39.000The Democrats have nothing to offer in contrast to a moderate Donald Trump.
00:46:44.000Trump coming out saying, oh, we should secure the border is not an extremist position.
00:46:48.000The Democrats chose for it to be because they have to offer an alternative.
00:46:52.000They have to give a reason why Trump is a bad choice, and they don't have one because Trump is moderate.
00:46:57.000He is not a staunch far-right conservative.
00:46:59.000He's like a moderate right-leaning guy at this point, and he used to be a Democrat.
00:47:03.000Now he's only right-leaning because the left has gone nuts.
00:48:31.000Quote, I think my colleagues were measuring their votes by who's got experience, who's seasoned, who can be trusted, who's capable on it, who's got a record of productivity.
00:48:53.000The Democratic establishment ultimately rallied around the 74-year-old Connolly who defeated a 34-year-old progressive squad member by a vote of 131-84.
00:50:10.000The fact that the best the Democrats have to offer in the minority, you know, for the ranking position is AOC, and they still went for the guy with cancer who's 74 and only...
00:50:21.000I just, holy crap, I'm so grateful that Donald Trump won.
00:50:33.000Like, AOC probably scares a lot of the donors.
00:50:37.000And, I mean, Shank was just in here the other day talking about how important the donors are.
00:50:42.000I mean, I don't have a problem with the Democrats being in disarray, but if you're going to put yourself in the Democrats, you know, if you can put yourself in their shoes, they're going to go with someone that doesn't scare the donors and someone like AOC or someone like Bernie Sanders.
00:50:58.000Their policies are not the kind of or their desired policies are not the kind of policies that people want to give them millions of dollars to try to implement.
00:51:08.000So if you're not going to get the money from the donors to actually try to make policy or to get elected so that way you can try and make policy, I don't think that it's a surprise that he gets this.
00:51:21.000You know, I think most people are just thinking the same thing.
00:51:25.000It is only three more days till the Christmas holiday begins.
00:51:45.000Everybody else is sitting at home being like, only a few more days until we just don't need to think about it.
00:51:50.000It is funny, though, because there are a lot of people hitting me up being like, what are we supposed to do for two weeks without IRL? And I'm like, I don't talk to your family, I guess.
00:52:44.000Yeah, there's a funny meme where it was like, if you're mad that Christmas is encroaching on Thanksgiving, well, maybe you should write some Thanksgiving bangers.
00:55:13.000When you sing a Christmas song and it's like dashing through the snow on a one-horse open sleigh or like under the mistletoe, they become—it ingrains that tradition in the minds of the people who celebrate.
00:57:20.000We used to have, me and a bunch of my buddies, we'd get together and we'd have a machine gun shoot because Rob's got a bunch of machine guns.
00:57:26.000And, you know, we'd bring them all out and line them up on the table and you'd have, you know, 15 or 20 machine guns and there's a handful of guys that we knew that had their own machine guns.
00:57:35.000They'd bring them up and you'd have a bunch of magazines ready and no drinking until the machine guns go away.
00:57:42.000Did you guys know that it was actually an American tradition to gift a loved one a box of ammunition on the 4th of July?
00:57:52.000The tradition began because on the 4th of July, with fears of the British regulars coming to the colonies to quell the rebellion, loved ones were trading.50 caliber...
00:58:11.000And it became a tradition where on this beautiful day we all go to our friends and we provide them with a box of ammunition that we feel is appropriate.
00:58:58.000It's tradition to take three standard capacity magazines, which is 30 rounds, and hang them from your door.
00:59:06.000And it's a sign to keep away those tyrannical regulars.
00:59:11.000Now, we don't really fear the British regulars anymore, but did you know that they would hang.50 caliber ball from their doors to let the regulars know that they were armed?
01:00:48.000Let's jump to this story from the Daily Mail.
01:00:51.000So actually, I'd like to lead with, hey, here's the news.
01:00:55.000Luigi Mangione has been indicted on murder charges for the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, and I believe it's under a terror statute.
01:01:03.000So the left, of course, is celebrating this guy.
01:01:05.000But the news that I find more interesting is that two documentaries are already in the works because we are a sick nation.
01:01:10.000We need a cultural cleansing of sorts, and this is proof that our culture is in trouble.
01:01:20.000This is why you can't say that the right has actually won the war or whatever.
01:01:26.000There are significant advances of ideas from the right, but there's a massive amount of people that think that...
01:01:36.000And it's actually not just people on the left, but there's a massive amount of people that think that it was justified because the health insurance industry is messed up or doesn't produce the results that they think it should.
01:03:26.000So with the original space program, the Apollo program, we developed a whole bunch of new chemicals and various products through the research and development.
01:04:02.000They just sit and don't do anything and just watch TV and just scroll their phone.
01:04:05.000It's crazy, but that's where the Aldous Huxley thing comes into reality.
01:04:09.000People are literally just being fed their vices and just falling for it.
01:04:13.000Sam, you've been to like 193 countries.
01:04:16.000Is it your sense that this is something that's unique to the West or is it something that you would imagine or that you think is global or what?
01:04:24.000I mean, I haven't heard about what Tim was talking about, how there was a documentary a week later or a book a week later.
01:04:30.000So I haven't heard about anything like that.
01:05:59.000But the thing is, a lot of people that I've seen, at least, that are, like, apolitical people are now...
01:06:03.000That used to be apolitical before 2020 or 2016 became political and now like it's boring We've done this for like eight years.
01:06:10.000It's not fun anymore Like riots are like yeah, kind of fun, but like I don't want to do that anymore So it's like I've just been seeing a lot of people kind of just you know Kind of give up and want to do something new or like there's the politics getting annoying.
01:06:21.000It's frustrating for them They were they were casuals.
01:06:24.000They weren't actually yeah, they were casuals definitely Sam you speak a lot about uncertainty in Is there any uncertainty in the future of what you see going on in America?
01:07:12.000Yeah, I think that that's kind of relevant all the time because at least to some degree, the stuff that you're talking about there is stuff that the Stoics were talking about.
01:07:22.000Like, don't worry about things you can't control.
01:07:26.000had a little more focus on their own lives and less focus on trying to save the world and this is something that Jordan Peterson talks about all the time when he's like doing the whole clean your room thing like focus on the things that you can do something about and if you have small successes in your life that will alleviate the anxiety that you're feeling that that is leading you to think we've got to change the whole world we've got to change the whole world we've got to change the whole world We've got to do...
01:09:17.000He was saying it was about how when he was young, there was no great battle.
01:09:22.000That the generation before him had Vietnam, that there was Desert Storm, but he, in the mid to late 90s, was just like, here I am enjoying all the wealth and prosperity, and I've never been challenged.
01:10:21.000So on January 31st of next year, we're releasing a new record, and the record is called Anti-Fragile, which speaks to exactly what Tim is talking about.
01:10:30.000The whole point of the title Anti-Fragile is human beings need resistance to grow.
01:10:37.000The astronauts that go to space, they spend a significant amount of time in contraptions that allow them to do cardio and work their bodies.
01:10:50.000Because there's no gravity in space, and you will lose bone density, and your muscles will deteriorate extremely fast if you're not doing that stuff.
01:11:00.000When people want to get better at something, it's hard.
01:13:14.000It's important to have that perspective because at the bottom, that's where it's important.
01:13:17.000And that's where all the growth happens.
01:13:19.000All of the bad things that have happened in my life, whether it be my personal life or my career or whatever, they've always been the thing that inspired me to do something better and achieve more.
01:13:34.000I think if we're all honest with ourselves, I think we would say that our personality today, the very essence of our life is a result of those challenges that we faced.
01:13:45.000And the choices we made as a result of those challenges, not because of the good times that we've had.
01:13:51.000Bro, it's like we were talking about before the show.
01:13:53.000How I said when you get luck or whatever, it's opportunity, meeting, preparation.
01:13:57.000If you don't prepare for something and you get something given to you, you can't be ready for it.
01:14:00.000You're not going to take advantage of it the right way.
01:14:02.000You're not going to get anything from it.
01:14:03.000So you should always be getting prepared.
01:14:05.000And that's why I always preach to the young folks of the world.
01:14:08.000Like if they're lost, definitely if you need some resistance, you need an obstacle, you need a challenge, I suggest the military.
01:14:14.000Because you're going to get that in the military.
01:14:15.000Maybe some other places, but if you join the military, you're stuck.
01:14:18.000You're stuck for at least three, four years that you have no choice in the matter but to make yourself better and or fail.
01:15:37.000And I don't know that it's something that parents should be instilling or if it's something that is in people, in some people and not in other people, but it's important to have that kind of...
01:15:53.000Attitude that says, if I fail, I'm going to try again.
01:15:58.000There are plenty of things in my life that didn't work out the way that I wanted them to, and every time...
01:16:08.000That something negative has happened or something that didn't work out the way that I wanted to.
01:16:13.000It wasn't like, oh, well, you know, I guess I got to stop doing this.
01:16:16.000If I stopped trying to be in a band the first time that I didn't get something that I wanted, the first band I ever tried out to be in, I wasn't good enough.
01:16:26.000And I just hadn't been playing long enough.
01:16:28.000And they were like, nah, we're going to go with another guy.
01:16:31.000And thankfully, six months later, they hit me up and they were like, yo, that guy didn't work out.
01:18:16.000Basically, technology has created artificial scheduling.
01:18:20.000And so, going back to the point where, you know, upstairs, we have a whole bunch of weights.
01:18:24.000We have a power cage and all that stuff.
01:18:26.000We have to find time in the day to simulate lifting heavy things.
01:18:32.000Well, literally lift heavy things to simulate farm work, basically.
01:18:36.000Because we have removed ourselves from what humans were built for.
01:18:39.000And so now humans are largely unhappy.
01:18:42.000Grok says, the idea of pastoralism in literature and philosophy.
01:18:46.000Historically, pastoralism or the idealized view of rural life has been romanticized in literature and philosophy, suggesting that living closer to nature, like farmers do, could lead to a more fulfilled, happy life.
01:18:56.000This isn't a term per se, but a recurring theme.
01:21:05.000And then you'd go into town only periodically and only like once a week or once a month would you get the post and actually learn about what's going on.
01:21:14.000And the only news that mattered to you was whether or not it felt like there was going to be a drought this year.
01:21:25.000Those are the things that really matter.
01:21:28.000We hear people talk about it all the time.
01:21:30.000What are the most important things to you?
01:21:31.000Like, the most important thing is your family.
01:21:33.000The most important thing is your mom, your kids, your wife, the people that are closest to you.
01:21:40.000I mean, we hear these things in all kinds of stories, and you see it in Hallmark cards and everything, you know?
01:21:50.000But yet, at the same time, As a society, we have lost that.
01:21:56.000We have lost the focus on that, which we tell people that things that are far removed from them are the most important, that things that are going on in Washington D.C. are the most important.
01:22:08.000You've got a whole generation of young women that believe, that have no intention Of getting pregnant or having an abortion, or not having an abortion, that's not something that they're all that worried about, but that's the most important thing to them, is abortion access.
01:22:25.000Like, they're not having sex, or they're in a committed relationship.
01:22:29.000That's another one that blows my mind.
01:22:31.000Women over 50 that think abortion is the most important thing.
01:22:38.000It is not important to you if abortion rights are not important to you.
01:22:44.000I understand that you've got a feeling about them, but the things that are going on in Washington, D.C. are not the things that are the most important things happening to your life.
01:22:54.000The most important things that are happening in your life are the things that happen every day, the people that you see every day, and the people you're around every day, and how you live your life.
01:23:05.000The idea that, you know, something that some politician says, you know, a thousand miles away, how you believe or believing that that's the most important thing going on in your life is ridiculous.
01:23:16.000And the only reason that you can convince yourself that it is, is because you're missing actually important things.
01:23:23.000Your actual interpersonal relationships with your family, with your friends, those things are suffering.
01:23:29.000And so you've replaced them with things far away.
01:23:44.000It is entirely possible that you could live a modern, internet-based technological life with a TV and video games and all that stuff, but have a homestead.
01:23:51.000And I think it's become quite popular, actually, in the past 10 years or so.
01:24:20.000I mean, we were into that for a while.
01:24:22.000We had a garden at the castle for a while.
01:24:26.000Yo, I feel bad for people who don't eat the food they've grown for breakfast.
01:24:35.000It is an amazing thing to wake up in the morning, I would wake up, I'd walk to the front of the house, go into the garden, and I would grab a zucchini, and I would grab a handful of cherry tomatoes, then I would grab two eggs right from under the chicken, and I'd make scrambled eggs with zucchini and tomatoes, just like that.
01:27:07.000But for the most part, the chickens just poop in the grass.
01:27:09.000Or you can go with the Thomas Massey model, the Clux capacitor.
01:27:14.000It is a solar-powered chicken coop that slowly moves across the grass.
01:27:21.000chickens are always staying on fresh grass and thomas was saying uh representative massey that the grass behind it is always really tall and lush because the chickens dump all over the place and then keep moving they eat the grass and then it grows back thicker and fuller than the surrounding grass it's amazing yeah He's a smart man.
01:27:41.000Thomas Massey knows what he's talking about.
01:28:06.000For instance, they say, oh, police officers become wicked because they're always in the police force.
01:28:10.000Well, in Singapore, they solve that because they leave the police force after they become like 23, 24, 25. I don't see why that's the bad thing.
01:28:17.000I don't see why all the lefties would be mad about that.
01:28:27.000They would only be better human beings after the three months they were in there.
01:28:30.000I remember when Rahm Emanuel got elected, he was saying that he was in favor of three-month basic training for all Americans at 18 or something.
01:29:12.000My heart rate is maxed out the whole time, which is probably not good, but it's great cardio.
01:29:16.000But I've been trying to throw in more pull-ups as often as I can and push-ups and lifting.
01:29:21.000I had a trainer earlier in the year and I was lifting, but dude, the workload is brutal.
01:29:28.000You know, it's like yesterday, we're leaving on Friday to Arizona, and then we've got Christmas, so I don't know when I'm going to get a chance to work out, hopefully at the hotel or something, maybe get on the treadmill.
01:29:38.000I'm getting done at like 4 or 5 o'clock, and then I have to go eat and come right back to do work again.
01:29:44.000And, you know, for a lot of people, there was this viral post where a guy's like, he's like a picture of me when I started my job, and then a picture two years later, and he's morbidly obese.
01:29:54.000And he was like, because the job was all sitting down, he never got to move.
01:30:36.000So you put a pull-up bar and anybody who wants to come in has to do one solid pull-up all the way up, all the way down, and then you can come in.
01:33:22.000But, man, guys, when I used to work...
01:33:28.000At the airline, you do a lot of physical labor, but you also have like a 45-minute downtime from when the plane is sitting before you have to load it, and everyone's playing Xbox.
01:35:31.000To be, you know, top-level pro athletes, you're out there, like, breaking a sweat every single day, you know?
01:35:38.000This is why I call skateboarding the lowest form of sports.
01:35:43.000Because pro skateboarders are probably the worst athletes.
01:35:46.000yeah not kidding like you look at the olympics and it's like these are people who not all of them but skateboard has skateboarding has very few people who are like i've got to stretch and stay hydrated you look at all the other olympic sports and these people are figurative slaves right some of these kids so i i knew a kid who was training for the olympics he had no choice in anything they'd wake up at the crack of dawn they'd force him to eat things that he didn't want to eat he had to do what he was told
01:36:14.000then it's like 100 push-ups now go and it was just until he had a mental breakdown on.
01:36:20.000You look at skateboarding, it's like some dude eating a cheeseburger and smoking cigarettes and then wearing khakis, and then they're as good as they could be, and then all of a sudden they find themselves in these big teams.
01:37:05.000Maybe snowboarding is a bit more lax, but still rather serious.
01:37:09.000Look, man, these big sponsors are going to come in and they're going to say, we don't want to give you money if you're going to show up stoned.
01:37:17.000Now, the guys in the Olympics, they're probably not smoking.
01:37:20.000They're probably taking it a little bit more serious.
01:37:22.000But, man, I know professional skateboarders, some of the most famous, and...
01:37:28.000There has been a movement where they're like, we're going to stop drinking and smoking and get healthy.
01:37:32.000Shout out to Neen Williams, who really is a great example for this.
01:37:54.000I had a friend of mine, he's an older guy now, but he played for the Toronto Maple Leafs in, I think, the early 60s.
01:38:02.000And he tells the story that over the summer before the season, the team sent out a notice and they said that in order to come into training camp, he had to be able to do like 20 push-ups and run a mile.
01:39:01.000Yeah, because he just was this gigantic guy, and they had to change the rules because of it.
01:39:07.000And I can't think of any others off the top of my head, but I know there are multiple people that, you know, they get into a sport, and it's like, all right, well, we have to change the way that the sport is played because of this one person on this one team, and because they change the way the sport is played, that means they have to change the rules.
01:41:22.000We've done a lot of shows with the guys in GWAR. I know a couple of the guys because they've had some member changes and stuff, and we toured with them a long time ago.
01:41:32.000But they are an absolute joy to be around.
01:41:35.000They're wonderful guys and tons of fun, so...
01:44:46.000I think the conflation of Israel criticism with anti-Semitism is really annoying.
01:44:52.000Because clearly, like, Dave Smith is not angry at Jewish people.
01:44:57.000Then there are some people who clearly hate Jewish people and Israel, and largely because of what Israel does, they then conflate it with Jews, and then there are people who just outright don't like Jews.
01:45:06.000I generally don't like people who have based their worldviews off of I don't care if it's the 1%.
01:45:31.000I don't care if it's fascists and white supremacists or the Jews.
01:45:35.000It's like, my friends, there's a whole world out there of powerful interests that do bad things, and they come in all shapes and sizes.
01:45:43.000So it's like, if someone came here and was, you know, John Stewart was talking about, well, Hollywood is disproportionately Jewish, I'd be like, he's not wrong.
01:45:51.000So my critique of Hollywood does have an overlap in that regard, but I don't think it's because they're Jewish.
01:45:56.000And then if someone were, and also the banks are run by Irish people, which is really funny because we pulled up the CEOs of all these banks.
01:46:01.000And then if someone came out and said, you know, Islam as a religion in the Hadith says to kill Jews, and I'm like, it certainly does, but that doesn't mean I'm going to hold it against an individual Muslim person on any other regard if they're opening a bank or something.
01:46:14.000So I think criticism where criticism is due, and where merit is due, respect is due.
01:46:20.000And we want to criticize the elements of all these things that are bad.
01:46:23.000I think Christianity has some bad stuff in it, but Christians had a Reformation and an Enlightenment, and that's a good thing.
01:47:43.000I'm putting it into the slack right now.
01:47:46.000If it's like a thing where it gives you a quote and then you have to pick whether it came from a Twitch streamer or a terrorist, that'd be hilarious.
01:47:51.000But if it's just like insulting Hassan, it's like, okay, well, whatever.
01:50:06.000Yeah, otherwise what happens is you just get a hard bowl and you're like hitting it.
01:50:10.000And then it's fatty, so it's not like ice, but it's not like good ice cream where you can just scoop it up.
01:50:16.000And then we have the tabletop one, too, where it's a flat metal sheet, and then you pour the cream on it, and you take the scrapers, like they do at the Cold Stone.
01:50:27.000Making ice cream is based AF. Also, you've got to get chickens.
01:50:32.000that's the theme of theme theme of tim cast ior yeah it's good chickens the tagline is chickens are based tim cast ior where chickens are based the we have the new skateboard coming out the 28th amendment that should be available in a week or so and it is a board and it just looks like script and like old parchment paper and it says have you showed the people yet i don't think so okay but you'll see it it's got the best little doodle of a chicken ever and it says chickens being necessary to the security of a free state
01:51:00.000the right of the people to keep bear and breed chickens shall not be infringed.
01:51:03.000And I believe it should be an amendment.
01:51:06.000Although, if we actually did have an amendment like that, it would be for the purpose of livestock in general.
01:51:27.000America is a free country, so the whole idea of being free means you can do whatever the hell you want unless it's prohibited.
01:51:37.000The reason why they had the Second Amendment was not because you needed to grant people the right to keep and bear arms.
01:51:45.000It was to specifically say to the government, you cannot touch this right.
01:51:51.000when you are in a free country you don't need permission you don't need protections, you're just free to do whatever you want anything at all, that's what free means, we live in a country now full of people that assume they have to we live in a country now full of people that assume they have to ask permission to do things, they assume that the government grants you permission to do stuff when in reality the government is supposed to be restricted and
01:52:22.000And the things that are not expressly, and powers that are not expressly given to the federal government, the federal government doesn't have.
01:52:30.000In fact, there's an amendment that says that.
01:52:33.000The Tenth Amendment says if it's not expressly given to the federal government, then the powers are retained to the states or to the people.
01:52:42.000And leftists out there, yeah, you can do whatever you want, but there are certain things you can't do because their laws will not allow you to do it.
01:52:48.000You can't just go around hurting people.
