Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Creepy Firms Push Great Reset, Houses Bought OVER Cost w-Posobiec and FreedomToons

00:00:00.000 You This is big story that's gone that it's been going around

00:00:17.000 for a little bit People have been talking about it for some weeks.

00:00:23.000 It's that houses are becoming impossible to buy.

00:00:25.000 But there's something strange about the story, and without getting a bit too conspiratorial, one fact is that pension funds and Wall Street and big investment firms with international interests are buying up houses at massive amounts above cost.

00:00:41.000 Somebody will say, I'm going to sell my house for $200,000, and they'll be like, we'll give you $250,000.

00:00:45.000 Pricing out any middle class person from the market. 0.96

00:00:49.000 Houses, it's a very direct and simple way that middle class people transfer wealth to their kids.

00:00:54.000 You buy a house, you get old, you die, your kids inherit that house.

00:00:58.000 Now it's gonna be the middle class are permanent renters. 0.98

00:01:01.000 Because all of these big firms are buying up houses like crazy, and maybe there's just... maybe it's a good money-making opportunity for these Federal Reserve-backed institutions.

00:01:09.000 But at the same time, we're getting these stories where they're saying millennials regret buying their houses, and middle-class people don't want to buy houses anymore, and I'm like, why is... why are there all these articles coming out claiming people don't want to own houses?

00:01:20.000 At the same time, the biggest investment firms are buying houses.

00:01:24.000 That just seems kind of odd to me.

00:01:26.000 At the very least, it's going to result in middle-class people not owning property, not owning wealth, squandering what little wealth they have inadvertently, and massive Wall Street companies or, you know, whatever, owning everything.

00:01:38.000 Some people are saying outright, this is just part of the Great Reset.

00:01:40.000 You will own nothing, and you will be happy.

00:01:43.000 10 years from now, 20 years from now, the next generation, they won't have things.

00:01:46.000 We'll break this down.

00:01:46.000 There's a lot to go through.

00:01:47.000 Plus a bunch of other stories.

00:01:48.000 There's apparently a story come out saying they weren't even selling bats at the Wuhan wet market.

00:01:52.000 Anthony Fauci says, I am science!

00:01:55.000 And got really mad on TV.

00:01:56.000 So joining us today is, we got Jack Sobic.

00:01:59.000 Hey, hey, Jack Posobiec, Senior Editor, Human Events.

00:02:02.000 Welcome back.

00:02:02.000 Author of the new book, Antifa Stories Inside the Black Black.

00:02:05.000 Go to antifabook.com, check it out.

00:02:07.000 Filling in for Jack Murphy.

00:02:09.000 I know a lot of people were expecting another Jack this evening.

00:02:13.000 Jack couldn't be here today and asked me to cover for him as the official Wednesday Jack.

00:02:18.000 Yeah, you got but you got to do it in the official like anchor like Jack Murphy has the night off, I will be filling in.

00:02:23.000 Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, Jack Murphy has the night off.

00:02:26.000 I will be playing the role of Jack Murphy, though with a slightly less conspicuous beard.

00:02:31.000 We got Seamus.

00:02:32.000 Got Seamus over here.

00:02:33.000 We don't have the Illinois boys tonight, unfortunately, but I'm happy to sit here with the other Jack, and we will be pouring out an old style for our fallen brother.

00:02:41.000 An old style?

00:02:42.000 That's right.

00:02:43.000 Ian's chillin' with the electroplasma ball.

00:02:46.000 Someone asked in the chat, Asking you shall receive.

00:02:49.000 There you go.

00:02:50.000 Like, why is it Ian sitting at the plasma ball?

00:02:52.000 Electricity!

00:02:52.000 Wait, so they said that in the chat before they could see Ian.

00:02:56.000 We're talking about collective memory.

00:02:56.000 Yeah.

00:02:58.000 Is this room bugged?

00:02:59.000 Something is happening.

00:02:59.000 No, no, no.

00:03:00.000 They were asking that he do it.

00:03:01.000 They asked that he do it.

00:03:01.000 They were like, can we have Ian sit by the plasma ball?

00:03:03.000 It makes him look cool.

00:03:04.000 He was already here.

00:03:04.000 We were like, I'm not doing it because you asked, dude.

00:03:07.000 Because I want to.

00:03:08.000 They're watching.

00:03:09.000 We got Lydia.

00:03:09.000 I am also here in the corner pushing buttons for these guys.

00:03:12.000 I request that they not argue with each other too much, but we'll see what happens.

00:03:15.000 Can we argue with you?

00:03:16.000 Yeah, sure you can.

00:03:20.000 We'll just argue with a straw man of the left.

00:03:22.000 We'll pretend like there's a leftist there.

00:03:24.000 We'll get only the worst arguments from their side possible.

00:03:26.000 I'll be the straw man. 0.91

00:03:27.000 Say the worst leftist talking points so we can pretend like we're all smart.

00:03:34.000 Wanna help everyone.

00:03:35.000 I gotta add, you know, so our internet got struck by lightning.

00:03:40.000 And we, I guess one of the boxes downstairs, like one of our network boxes, got fried by it.

00:03:45.000 So we're, you know, I think it's working.

00:03:47.000 I don't know, if the internet cuts out.

00:03:49.000 I was watching Loki earlier.

00:03:51.000 The internet just shut off and I was so mad.

00:03:53.000 It's like, I'm in the middle of watching Loki, man!

00:03:56.000 So that wasn't like Thor Well, let's let's we'll get serious before we get started over to Tim cast calm become a member by clicking that big old members only button And then you will get access to the exclusive members only area I can only assume that tonight's members only exclusive will be a hoot a Because we got Jack, Seamus, me, Ian, Lydia, everybody's here, so it'll be a loud and raucous conversation, I suppose, talking about the things that YouTube typically doesn't want us to talk about.

00:04:27.000 And when you become a member, you don't just get these amazing segments, which you don't want to miss.

00:04:33.000 You're actually helping fund the expansion of our mission.

00:04:36.000 So we've got a newsroom launching hopefully in the next week or two.

00:04:38.000 I don't have an exact date yet.

00:04:40.000 It's going to be particularly rudimentary to start.

00:04:42.000 But we're going to start bringing on journalists immediately and expanding and expanding and expanding, and then we're going to have our own news operation fact-checking these lying fake news journalists and putting out the real news.

00:04:52.000 And it's going to be very, very precise and academic, and we are going to have like one of the most rigorous fact-checking operations.

00:04:58.000 We're actually trying to get another... So we're going to hire fact-checkers, then we're going to hire a fact-checker to fact-check us and have them somewhere like 20 miles away so they never interact with anyone here.

00:05:08.000 Then they read the articles, go through them, and we do that to try and filter framing properly.

00:05:13.000 So, if everyone's hanging out and talking about everything, and they're like, that's Joe Biden admitting he's a liar.

00:05:19.000 Then someone 20 miles away doesn't talk to us, hears it and says, I don't think he's saying he's a liar, I think he's saying this, and then we can also try and make sure we're doing proper framing and stuff.

00:05:26.000 So, become a member.

00:05:27.000 Let's talk about this tweet from Jack Posobiec.

00:05:30.000 This guy, Jack Posobiec, AntifaBook.com, he's got some nerve.

00:05:34.000 He said, this should be illegal in all 50 states and punishable by federal prison time.

00:05:40.000 What was he referring to?

00:05:41.000 It's a Twitter thread where Cultural Husbandry notes, BlackRock is buying every single family house they can find, paying 20-50% above asking price, and outbidding normal homebuyers.

00:05:54.000 Why are corporations, pension funds, and property investment groups buying entire neighborhoods?

00:06:00.000 Well, it goes on to say it's basically the Great Reset.

00:06:02.000 The middle class uses home ownership, land ownership, to transfer wealth to their children.

00:06:07.000 But what happens when, during a Great Reset, or I'm sorry, during a pandemic, there's a Great Reset, as it were, of people's jobs, of businesses, everybody gets knocked out of the playing field, sort of levels a lot of people out, their businesses are closed.

00:06:20.000 Family businesses, these are some of the most horrifying stories.

00:06:22.000 Companies that have been around for like a hundred years, gone overnight.

00:06:26.000 Now these people are going to become renters.

00:06:28.000 Many moved.

00:06:29.000 They want to buy houses.

00:06:30.000 It's not that hard to buy a house.

00:06:32.000 People think it is.

00:06:33.000 But all of a sudden you find this out on zillow.com and you're flicking and you're like, man, this is so cool.

00:06:36.000 Look at this house.

00:06:37.000 And then you call the agent and he says, oof, just sold for 50K above asking.

00:06:42.000 You're like, how am I supposed to compete with that as a regular person?

00:06:45.000 How are millennials supposed to build wealth when these companies are coming in and buying a ball's property? 0.93

00:06:50.000 Yeah, I mean, they're not.

00:06:51.000 I wish that Jack Fowler were here so we could have a conversation with him on his perspective on the matter, but I think that what is happening is terrible.

00:07:00.000 I'm generally a fan of the free market, but part of why this was possible was because the government came in and they shut down the entire economy for months, and then they also printed a bunch of money inflating the dollar, and so for your average person, given the savings they had prior, it's going to be much more difficult for them to afford a house in these massive companies are going to be able to. So it's a consolidation of wealth,

00:07:22.000 the likes of which I predicted would occur as a result of this ballot and as a result of the

00:07:26.000 shutdown, and it has. And the fact is, people who don't own property are much easier to control.

00:07:31.000 And check this out, you can't even build a house now. So this was reported back

00:07:35.000 in April.

00:07:36.000 It's about $40,000 more to build a house today because of the skyrocketing lumber and steel prices, which have only gone higher.

00:07:42.000 So imagine this.

00:07:43.000 It's July of last year.

00:07:46.000 You got a few thousand dollars in savings, and you're like, I got enough to put down on buying a house.

00:07:50.000 Not anymore you don't.

00:07:51.000 Maybe you were like, okay, I saved up enough to actually get a loan for a new construction.

00:07:56.000 Not anymore, you don't.

00:07:57.000 That new concept is way too expensive.

00:07:58.000 So what happens?

00:08:00.000 Not only that, not only has it become harder because of inflation and skyrocketing materials prices, you finally are like, well, I have enough.

00:08:06.000 I've saved enough.

00:08:07.000 I've overcome these, these challenges.

00:08:10.000 And then, sorry, BlackRock outbid you by 25%.

00:08:12.000 Yeah.

00:08:13.000 And, you know, going off what Shane was saying.

00:08:15.000 So Jack is here!

00:08:16.000 And it turns out the guy is here.

00:08:20.000 Yeah, this, you're absolutely right, though, this was a situation where the government said, and you see Fannie Mae deciding to want to do this to say, look, all of these people went underwater in their, you know, they, we call it remember the toxic subprime loans and the mortgages and people were buying house that they couldn't afford, etc, etc.

00:08:37.000 Okay, we know how that started.

00:08:39.000 We know who the people who were responsible for it.

00:08:41.000 But we live in this strange system where the same people who are called upon to fix it are actually the ones who created the problem in the first place.

00:08:48.000 So who do they turn to?

00:08:48.000 And that's how it goes!

00:08:49.000 Oh, you know, themselves!

00:08:52.000 Who could solve this problem?

00:08:53.000 We can!

00:08:54.000 We'll buy it ourselves!

00:08:56.000 And then, and the one that he actually doesn't mention in the thread, but I would throw out there, and it's just absolutely huge, and you see so many Wealthy Chinese families coming in Chinese elite CCP elites that know that their money is if it's in a Chinese banks and you've run a foul of the party if you become the new persona non grata, right Xi Jinping or whoever it is in the Politburo can reach right in snag that from you.

00:09:22.000 They're using it as tax havens.

00:09:24.000 They're using it as tax shelters. 0.92

00:09:25.000 They're getting out of it.

00:09:26.000 And they know, by the way, that the market is just super hot right now.

00:09:29.000 So it actually is, in a financial sense, a very fantastic investment.

00:09:33.000 But it's the financialization of what is supposed to be and has traditionally been this wealth ownership, this wealth generation for middle

00:09:41.000 class for working class families, that now is being completely turned into the next 1.00

00:09:46.000 commodities market. You don't have landlords anymore. You've got some guy who's owning it on Wall Street,

00:09:51.000 they set up like a front company to manage the whole thing, right?

00:09:54.000 Right.

00:09:54.000 So it's not like, you know, it's not like one guy.

00:09:56.000 Oh, I flipped a couple of houses.

00:09:58.000 And now I've got like, 10.

00:09:59.000 I had a cousin who had, you know, he had 10 houses in the Indianapolis area.

00:10:03.000 So he's, he's running it himself, basically, maybe has a couple people working for him.

00:10:07.000 But it's not that anymore.

00:10:09.000 Doesn't, you know, call centers and, you know, mechanics that are all Aren't there a bunch of Chinese, like you mentioned Chinese wealthy people, but isn't like large swaths of land in the West just like open acreage bought by wealthy Chinese families?

00:10:23.000 And farmland too.

00:10:24.000 Yeah, absolutely.

00:10:24.000 Yeah, farmland.

00:10:25.000 And this is, there's a ton of stuff that they're putting in because people don't understand that, you know, when you say CCP in China, you know, it, You know, people have this tendency, and it makes sense, that you want to put that into an American perspective, right?

00:10:40.000 We categorize things by trying to put into boxes that are familiar to us.

00:10:43.000 But there isn't anything like the CCP in the United States because it's, well, they say, well, you know, their government stops here and their business starts there.

00:10:51.000 So that's the separation.

00:10:53.000 No, there is no separation.

00:10:54.000 There's no real separation.

00:10:56.000 These aren't necessarily nefarious plots, right?

00:10:59.000 This is just a general strategy that they're employing.

00:11:03.000 They realize that if they own this farmland, then they can control U.S.

00:11:07.000 output, they can get better consumption for Chinese goods.

00:11:11.000 Obviously, their consumption of this is going to be much more than us.

00:11:13.000 They know that in many cases, when they were fighting back against these tariffs, That President Trump was was employing when he first got in.

00:11:20.000 Joe Biden, by the way, has kept a lot of these tariffs in place because they are widely popular.

00:11:25.000 They're extremely popular.

00:11:27.000 And they know, though, that the farmers of the U.S.

00:11:30.000 are doing a lot of sales on the international market.

00:11:33.000 A lot of that ends up in China.

00:11:34.000 They can kind of set the prices on this, but they realize, hey, if we own the land, then we can just control the farms directly.

00:11:40.000 Do you know who the who the largest private farmland owners in the United States is?

00:11:46.000 This is the one where it's Bill Gates.

00:11:47.000 It's Bill Gates!

00:11:48.000 Bill Gates is the largest private farmland owner in the U.S.

00:11:53.000 Good for him.

00:11:54.000 Yeah.

00:11:54.000 Rolling the sleeves up, getting out from behind the computer.

00:11:57.000 I'm glad something good finally happened for that guy.

00:12:01.000 Hold on, let me, sorry.

00:12:02.000 There's more.

00:12:03.000 So it's not just Bill Gates.

00:12:04.000 I mean, there's a lot of conspiracies about why he's doing it.

00:12:06.000 I think he just wants to own land.

00:12:08.000 I think owning land is a really smart investment.

00:12:11.000 That's what they say to people, buy land.

00:12:13.000 The point is, the billionaires are buying it up.

00:12:15.000 portfolios. The basic pitch, buy land, they aren't making it anymore.

00:12:19.000 So it's not just Bill Gates, I mean there's a lot of conspiracies about why he's doing it.

00:12:21.000 I think he just wants to own land. I think owning land is a really smart investment.

00:12:25.000 That's what they say to people, buy land. The point is, the billionaires are buying it up.

00:12:30.000 They're also buying up Bitcoin. I don't think they expect to lose money on these things.

00:12:34.000 But when working class people, middle class people can't buy these things, they can buy Bitcoin.

00:12:38.000 I'm not saying they should, you know, don't get advice from me.

00:12:40.000 But if they can't buy land, then what can they transfer to their kids?

00:12:44.000 A desire for land.

00:12:44.000 What will they own?

00:12:46.000 This is what's scary and sort of I want to jump back to part of the discussion on real estate, but I will say this as well.

00:12:53.000 I know that earlier this year, China was buying so much.

00:12:56.000 They were buying up so many of the corn futures or so much corn futures that they ended up pushing the market to an eight year high.

00:13:02.000 So they seem to be very interested in this.

00:13:07.000 I know also that with these massive companies purchasing real estate, part of what frightens me about that, I mentioned this earlier when I said that people who don't own property are easier to control, is that we have seen payment processors and credit card companies in the past decline service to people who they disagree with politically or who are very controversial.

00:13:24.000 Who's to say that these massive companies don't get woke, take a stand, and say we're not going to rent to bigots?

00:13:28.000 Wow.

00:13:29.000 It's almost like Bitcoin solves a lot of that.

00:13:31.000 Regarding the Chinese purchase of land, so if a Chinese citizen bought land, the CCP could seize that land from that Chinese person because they're a Chinese citizen?

00:13:41.000 Is that right?

00:13:42.000 Not easily, right?

00:13:43.000 But they could.

00:13:45.000 They could, but more likely than not it would be put into some kind of arbitrage.

00:13:48.000 Let's say they were put into jail or something.

00:13:50.000 If it's American land.

00:13:52.000 They would have to do it through the person, right?

00:13:54.000 The Chinese government's not gonna come to the United States government and be like, that legal document that says that person owns it, we own it now.

00:13:59.000 They're gonna be like, get out of here.

00:14:00.000 But they could station Chinese troops on that piece of land?

00:14:03.000 Like, okay, if a Chinese citizen buys a piece of land in the United States, does the United States still own the land? 0.87

00:14:08.000 Like, how does that work?

00:14:09.000 Who owns that property globally?

00:14:10.000 The United States still has sovereignty.

00:14:12.000 Sovereignty, that's not ownership.

00:14:13.000 It's still collecting property tax from that person.

00:14:15.000 China can't put troops there.

00:14:17.000 No, they can't do that.

00:14:18.000 What about police?

00:14:19.000 What about like private police?

00:14:19.000 No.

00:14:19.000 They can put spies?

00:14:20.000 They can put spies surreptitiously, but that's private security.

00:14:24.000 Yeah, it's private security.

00:14:25.000 They could hire and station private security in Chinese... And those private security have to operate under U.S.

00:14:30.000 laws with proper U.S.

00:14:31.000 Yeah, right, until the war breaks out.

00:14:31.000 accreditation.

00:14:32.000 They can do the things you would do on your property, basically.

00:14:34.000 Bro, before the war breaks out, the U.S.

00:14:36.000 military goes in and sweeps it out.

00:14:38.000 Yeah, but how much land do they own?

00:14:39.000 That's my concern.

00:14:40.000 No, no, no.

00:14:42.000 If war breaks out, they don't own any land.

00:14:44.000 That's the best part.

00:14:46.000 All of the debt that China holds in the U.S., if right now, just like, you know, Joe Biden sitting there, and he just like, he's like falling asleep, and then he farts and goes, oh, I declare war on China!

00:14:54.000 Oh, what happened?

00:14:55.000 Our debt's gone!

00:14:56.000 There's no debt when you're at war. 0.98

00:14:57.000 Imagine being like, imagine some guy being like, you owe me a hundred bucks, and then punching him in the face.

00:15:04.000 My concern is if they buy up thousands of farms and then station private security all over the place, Chinese private security, and then that's just an insurgent. 0.68

00:15:13.000 The goal is financial directly, right?

00:15:16.000 And this is something where, you know, and I've had large disagreements with people on this very question over, you know, Are we falling into the Thucydides trap?

00:15:29.000 Is it impossible to get away from war with China that we are hurtling towards? 0.95

00:15:36.000 Is this inevitable?

00:15:37.000 Is this something that cannot be stopped?

00:15:39.000 The way I look at it is, I think something more like the Great Reset is more like what's inevitable.

00:15:46.000 China doesn't want to go to war with us.

00:15:48.000 We're their biggest customer, right?

00:15:50.000 They want us to be in that consumer mode.

00:15:53.000 They want us to be in that constant state of, like you said, not not owning property, not worrying about, you know, trying to generate wealth of our own as long as it's enough where we're purchasing their goods.

00:16:05.000 We're not causing any problems.

00:16:06.000 We're not getting involved too much with the real, you know, the actual realities on the ground is the way things look.

00:16:13.000 You know, are in China, you know, don't worry about those Uyghurs, you know, don't worry about those people in Hong Kong. 1.00

00:16:18.000 Don't worry about the freedom fighters that are, you know, constantly being detained throughout China.

00:16:22.000 We just saw this huge protest in Nanjing University, right?

00:16:26.000 Nanjing Normal University, which might seem kind of insignificant as a university protest, whatever.

00:16:31.000 You know, we have those in the U.S., what, like every five minutes? 0.51

00:16:34.000 In China, that's a big deal.

00:16:36.000 In China, that's quite a big deal.

00:16:37.000 There are workers protests in China.

00:16:39.000 In the provinces on a fairly regular basis, but they're just not heard about in in US media.

00:16:45.000 They don't have social media access.

00:16:47.000 We don't know about it a lot, but it's it's a constant thing in the mid 2000s is going on a lot.

00:16:52.000 But for students to protest like that, I mean, you know, and obviously we're in very close proximity to the the anniversary of Tiananmen Square and nowhere near on that scale, right?

00:17:03.000 Because Tiananmen wasn't even just Beijing.

00:17:04.000 It was all over the country, but To see any Chinese students at, you know, kids in their 20s, basically, standing up against the government.

00:17:13.000 Essentially, I don't know the story.

00:17:15.000 The idea was they had been going to what were considered private universities, but the Ministry of Education had come in and said, Yeah, you're not going to be private universities anymore.

00:17:23.000 We're going to consolidate you down.

00:17:25.000 We're going to consider you these to be vocational tech schools at this point.

00:17:28.000 So it's basically kind of like, like, imagine if you had spent all the money to go to a private university, and then, you know, the government comes in and says, Yeah, that's a community college now.

00:17:35.000 So you know, your college, your, you know, your degree is worth, it was worth here.

00:17:39.000 And now it's worth here.

00:17:40.000 I mean, China, that's still a huge, huge deal. 0.53

00:17:43.000 So the kids go nuts. 0.93

00:17:44.000 They go absolutely nuts.

00:17:46.000 And the police came in and were just completely brutal with them.

00:17:49.000 But the difference is this went super viral all across Chinese media.

00:17:53.000 What, recently?

00:17:55.000 Oh, yeah.

00:17:55.000 Last week.

00:17:55.000 And they locked the city down, didn't they?

00:17:58.000 Yeah.

00:17:58.000 The whole city got put under lockdown.

00:18:00.000 It was multiple campuses where this thing broke out.

00:18:03.000 At one point, the Chinese government came out and the CCP saying, oh, well, they took the dean hostage.

00:18:09.000 Right.

00:18:09.000 And so that's why we had to go in.

00:18:12.000 Right.

00:18:12.000 And I was and I don't.

00:18:13.000 You wonder if they were actually taking kind of like a Black Lives Matter sort of take on things.

00:18:13.000 Yeah.

00:18:17.000 But then the kids posted pictures of the guy and he had he had like a box of chicken and a soda.

00:18:22.000 He said, no, he came and sat down with us.

00:18:25.000 And you could see like other kids sitting around with him.

00:18:27.000 And so, yeah, I know you're saying evergreen.

00:18:29.000 It's kind of hard to tell, but it didn't look like a hostage.

00:18:33.000 I mean, at Evergreen College, they definitely, you know, locked the administrators and they're like, we didn't hold anybody hostage.

00:18:38.000 Like they weren't free to leave, though.

00:18:40.000 But so in terms of we're talking about the potential for war with China, we have the story from Yahoo.

00:18:46.000 So much at stake.

00:18:47.000 PM's chilling warning on conflict with China.

00:18:51.000 Prime Minister Scott Morrison, he will call on the world leaders to stand in unison against the growing threat of China. 0.99

00:18:57.000 On Wednesday, he will deliver a major foreign policy speech ahead of a trip to the United Kingdom, where he'll be a guest at a meeting of the world economic powers, including the U.S., Germany, and France.

00:19:05.000 Bro, it sounds like war with China is seriously on the horizon.

00:19:09.000 It's not just this, not just Australia being like, yo, it's happening. 0.87

00:19:13.000 I mean, obviously China came back and they're like, ah, that's rubbish, there's no war. 0.93

00:19:17.000 The U.S. 0.60

00:19:18.000 just dispatched its Pacific fleet across the Pacific in anticipation of Chinese rocket attacks.

00:19:24.000 You're talking about the aircraft or the Navy?

00:19:27.000 has has has their air fleet two different bases one in japan i think in

00:19:29.000 okinawa could be wrong and one in guam and there was concern that you're talking about the

00:19:34.000 aircraft or the navy uh... is the air force with the airport area

00:19:38.000 so they were worried that these chinese rockets would just wipe out these bases

00:19:42.000 into the devil time no time to scramble it wouldn't just be the the basis be the

00:19:46.000 I mean, I've gone through those scenarios when I was in the Navy, and, I mean, it basically comes down to, like, at what time would they be destroying what facility, right?

00:19:56.000 Okinawa's right there.

00:19:57.000 It's right there.

00:19:58.000 But so what the U.S.

00:19:58.000 has done is they've dispatched the fleet around the Pacific, so now there's, like, some bombs here, some planes there, and they straight-up said, oh, it's a, you know, in anticipation of what with China, we will not be vulnerable to these attacks.

00:20:11.000 We're seeing that.

00:20:11.000 We're also seeing the Pentagon is buying up weapons specifically for naval and Pacific warfare, as opposed to Middle Eastern warfare, like drone strikes and things like that.

00:20:21.000 Seems like Thucydides' trap is a given, and they recognize it.

00:20:25.000 Maybe the economic stuff was an attempt to stop it.

00:20:27.000 Maybe this NBA stuff was like, the more business we build up, the less likely there will be a war, and war is bad.

00:20:34.000 Sounds like war is gonna happen.

00:20:35.000 Yeah, so I'll put it this way, that is there a near-peer competitor that would be at the most, and when I say that I mean another state actor which would have a comparable military to the United States, that the US could potentially go to war with?

00:20:48.000 Number one would definitely be China. 0.96

00:20:50.000 The reason that I'm still, you know, I'd bet against it, it's like I'd put it 60-40 right now.

00:20:50.000 Right?

00:20:50.000 100%.

00:20:55.000 Is is because they're just making so much money off of us, right?

00:20:58.000 They're constantly making money off of us.

00:21:00.000 It's true.

00:21:00.000 Even more money now after the pandemic, which they certainly played to their own.

00:21:05.000 You know, I'm not one of those people who thinks the pandemic was a deliberate plot or anything like that by them.

00:21:10.000 But I think it's something that once once it hit, they realized how to spin everything in their favor, financially speaking.

00:21:16.000 They're positioning themselves to be the major beneficiaries of the Great Reset.

00:21:20.000 They're still in bed with all of our elites, with all the Western elites, and by and large have been financed and built up by Western elites.

00:21:28.000 They're essentially winning, so why would they go hot?

00:21:30.000 Why shoot?

00:21:35.000 And the only thing that I think that could potentially lead to that is if you see the actual party from the inside be threatened, if you see Xi Jinping feel that his rule is threatened, if you see him potentially weakened by rivals, then does he make a play for Taiwan?

00:21:55.000 Maybe there's a bunch of protests breaking out across the country which could threaten to destabilize the social order?

00:22:00.000 Is that possible?

00:22:01.000 This is why I keep an eye on it.

00:22:02.000 Yeah.

00:22:03.000 Well, so you were mentioning this a moment ago in the earlier segment, but just a minute ago, that these massive protests were breaking out all across China.

00:22:12.000 I mean, is that something you think could make the Chinese Communist Party fear their control over the country?

00:22:17.000 Potentially, but that's going to lead to internal crackdowns. 0.99

00:22:19.000 That wouldn't be something that would, you know, they would want to do some kind of like, you know, external big like wag the dog type approach to anything.

00:22:27.000 And, you know, Xi Jinping is starting to now get credit for essentially not, you know, I wouldn't say the return of Hong Kong, but just the control of Hong Kong, right?

00:22:35.000 They they view this as a huge win.

00:22:37.000 And if you look at those, the 6-4 anniversary, so the anniversary Tiananmen Square is June 4th.

00:22:42.000 And if you look at those images out of Victoria Park in Hong Kong, downtown Hong Kong, This has always been the spot where, since 1989, the people of Hong Kong, particularly young people, particularly students, would go out every single June 4th night and hold a candlelight vigil there in Victoria Park.

00:22:59.000 So there's these montage photos people have put up on the internet.

00:23:02.000 where it shows that it's it's this huge thing and it's every year and it sort of became this sort of hybrid dual meaning where it's it's in commemoration of Tiananmen Square but it's also that hey we we know you don't want us doing this after 1997 the handover that okay we're part of Chinese sovereignty now under Beijing but we are still going to do this because we are Hong Kong and we are free Last year, it was an incredibly diminished crowd.

00:23:29.000 All of a sudden you see this like this huge park, but it's only maybe like 50 percent capacity.

00:23:34.000 And then this last year, it's empty.

00:23:37.000 It's you or you.

00:23:38.000 You are going to see a lot of people, and I think you are in the United States moving from libertarian to

00:23:43.000 authoritarian very, very quickly with the Nickelodeon thing where the drag queen dancer is showing the red salute, the

00:23:51.000 communist fist and telling the kids, this is a good thing.

00:23:53.000 Look at this. Not flashing on the screen.

00:23:56.000 And just a lot of what's happening in this country, it's hyper-polarization, right?

00:24:00.000 So on my main channel... Anything with kids, anything involving kids, you are tripping those...

00:24:06.000 That's a primal red line, right?

00:24:09.000 Biological, spiritual, everything.

00:24:11.000 Yeah, the story of the dad and the mom in Texas fighting over custody of the kid who the mom said was trans, the dad said wasn't.

00:24:16.000 I mean, these are serious issues.

00:24:19.000 I covered vaccine segregation on my main channel today because Democrats are increasingly pushing what is called vaccine segregation, so there's going to be a grand reopening of New York City. 0.71

00:24:30.000 Where 70% of the tickets will go to people who are vaccinated and then 30% to people who are unvaccinated will go to special segregated areas.

00:24:38.000 Madison Square Garden is doing an event where you have to be fully vaccinated so you have to have your two full doses and it has to be a few weeks after or whatever then you can get in.

00:24:46.000 Whereas red states are doing the exact opposite.

00:24:49.000 So I bring this up just to tie it into what we're talking about with China and the expansion and possible war. 0.71

00:24:53.000 China is extremely authoritarian.

00:24:55.000 The authoritarian nature is allowing them just Iron fist control of Hong Kong, right?

00:25:01.000 No more protests.

00:25:03.000 is being rocked and shattered by protest.

00:25:03.000 The U.S.

00:25:06.000 So I think what's going to happen is you're going to see a lot of people who are just, I mean, I've already heard the conversations where they're like, well, freedom is for peacetime, you know, libertarianism, liberty is for peacetime.

00:25:16.000 When you're in a time of war, that's when the rules go out the window.

00:25:20.000 You've got the potential for war with China.

00:25:22.000 And this is what a lot of people are saying.

00:25:23.000 Because we're such a free-spirited country that allows a lot of liberty, it allows the rise of subversive groups who would weaken us at a time when we're facing potential war.

00:25:32.000 China's not doing that. 0.90

00:25:33.000 If China goes to war, their country's locked down and everyone falls in line.

00:25:36.000 If the U.S.

00:25:37.000 goes to war, we're going to be ripped apart. 0.69

00:25:39.000 There's also a huge dichotomy there as well.

00:25:42.000 You talked about millennials earlier, right?

00:25:46.000 I don't know how many millennial I'd love to actually pull up the millennial homeownership numbers.

00:25:51.000 Well, we all know it's terrible.

00:25:52.000 We all know it's really bottomed out.

00:25:54.000 But how many of how many millennial homeowners are flying, you know, American flags in front of their houses?

00:26:00.000 Interesting.

00:26:01.000 And, you know, it's going to be I don't know if there's any studies in this, but my guess is that would be quite quite a lot less than their parents.

00:26:01.000 Right.

00:26:07.000 Right.

00:26:07.000 In China, it's the exact opposite.

00:26:09.000 The generation that you are seeing come up now in China are 10 times more hyper-nationalistic than any that has preceded them, potentially since the Communist Cultural Revolution of the 1960s.

00:26:22.000 Was there a noticeable change in the Chinese population after Tiananmen Square?

00:26:27.000 Maybe you can explain a little bit about how many people died.

00:26:30.000 It would be after the one-child policy is when you see the noticeable shift.

00:26:34.000 It's like a plateau.

00:26:35.000 It just drops off.

00:26:36.000 I, part of, part of me just would love to see a simulation of what these leftists would experience should China win the economic war and any potential hot conflict.

00:26:47.000 Can we send them there?

00:26:48.000 Yeah.

00:26:49.000 It's, it's not, it's, it's, but, but they wouldn't live.

00:26:50.000 Every, every bides walk and just, just go right over.

00:26:53.000 And for those who aren't familiar, it means white left.

00:26:55.000 It's their word for SJW.

00:26:57.000 But no, no, no.

00:26:58.000 If the U.S.

00:26:59.000 loses this economic conflict, this trade war, the economic war, or even the Cold War or the hot war, whatever it becomes, they're not going to live anywhere near as good as the people of China will live.

00:27:09.000 So we can say like, oh, we'll send them to China. 1.00

00:27:11.000 Well, I mean, Chinese cities, they have political problems.

00:27:14.000 There's authoritarianism, but the people still live in city conditions.

00:27:17.000 If we if we go to war and we lose that war, it's like then you live at the whims

00:27:21.000 of your of your of the.

00:27:23.000 Oh, I see what you're saying, right?

00:27:24.000 Yeah, they're going to be living like POWs. 0.73

00:27:26.000 They're going to be right.

00:27:27.000 So, you know, your, your, you know, your, your ability to protest that's gone out the window, right?

00:27:31.000 Your, your, your blog, your, your social media accounts, your tumblers, your whatever, whatever it is where you're going.

00:27:37.000 The reason I mentioned tumblers, because that's, you know, it's, it's, it's like oversharing, right?

00:27:41.000 It's, it's well, who can say the most taboo thing who can push the most buttons that's gone.

00:27:41.000 It's over free.

00:27:46.000 That's gone overnight.

00:27:47.000 You're going to start to make people support the CCP here.

00:27:51.000 Be careful.

00:27:52.000 I love it.

00:27:53.000 There's this meme where these leftists are like... I'll tell you what they think about Christianity next.

00:27:58.000 There's this meme where the leftists, like the Bernie people, are like, we should put the 1% in gulags, make them break rocks for a few months so they know what hard work is like.

00:28:06.000 It's like, bro, you guys don't do hard work at all.

00:28:10.000 I think what they don't realize is that the things they're advocating for would put them in gulags breaking rocks so they can learn the value of hard work.

00:28:17.000 They're not going to go to the guy who's working at a steel mill.

00:28:19.000 They're not going to go to the guy who's a construction worker.

00:28:21.000 They're just going to be like, keep working, and they're going to be like, okay.

00:28:23.000 They're going to go to the intelligentsia, the college academic kids, these activists, and they're the problem.

00:28:29.000 Whenever these takeovers happen, they immediately try and purge the intelligentsia who made the revolutions happen.

00:28:35.000 Yeah, those people are dangerous.

00:28:35.000 100%.

00:28:36.000 They're subversive.

00:28:37.000 Right, right.

00:28:38.000 There's a reason that we don't talk about the Mensheviks anymore.

00:28:41.000 Everyone knows what happens to the Mensheviks. 0.76

00:28:41.000 Yeah. 0.76

00:28:43.000 But ultimately, I bring this up because it's like, if war is inevitable, our greatest weakness is our internal conflict.

00:28:50.000 I mean, there are already people who have been superchatting us saying things like they think it's China's plan to promote these leftist, anti-American ideas, to teach anti-American history lessons, to claim the country is awful.

00:29:04.000 What happens then if there's complete demoralization?

00:29:08.000 and then uh... you know chinese boat crashes on the shores of santa monica on

00:29:12.000 a bunch of soldiers walkout and they're like we're here to liberate you from the 0.91

00:29:15.000 oppressive this is a racist white people. This is Paul Wolfowitz right? We'll be greeted as liberators.

00:29:20.000 Exactly here's the thing though when we sort of talked about this the other day

00:29:23.000 They didn't welcome us to liberate America.

00:29:26.000 The people who would bow to the chinese government aren't really the people who

00:29:31.000 would have been much of a threat had they put up a fight anyway.

00:29:36.000 And there is a gun behind every blade of grass.

00:29:38.000 What's the name of the Chinese army?

00:29:40.000 The Red Army? 0.64

00:29:41.000 No, no, the official name.

00:29:42.000 What is it?

00:29:43.000 The People's Liberation Army.

00:29:46.000 See, they've already thought of this.

00:29:47.000 They've already thought this through.

00:29:49.000 But if we get to the point where, you know, we're all racing our embassies, fly the flags of Black Lives Matter, we're seeing Children's Show fly the Red Salute, the CCP members perform the Red Salute when they're, you know, being brought into the party or whatever.

00:30:01.000 Oh yeah.

00:30:02.000 They're gonna come here and be like, no, no, we agree with you.

00:30:05.000 We're the same.

00:30:05.000 They're gonna be like, they're gonna have the flags with the fist on it.

00:30:08.000 And then the leftists are gonna be like, oh, this is a good thing. 0.96

00:30:11.000 And they're gonna say, we're here to liberate you from the evil white supremacists.

00:30:14.000 And you're gonna have a lot of people being like, awesome.

00:30:17.000 And then the Chinese Communist Party will go through every piece of social media you've ever posted, including all the people that they think are on their side.

00:30:25.000 Look at all there.

00:30:26.000 If there's one thing that got said out, they'll be glad it's not even that they'd look.

00:30:31.000 They'd look at it and say, who's useful and who's not?

00:30:33.000 Yeah.

00:30:34.000 Right.

00:30:34.000 If you're if you're of no use to us, if you if you can't be put to work, if you can't if you're not in STEM fields or producing something of value, if you're not an actual worker, then you're just Get out of here.

00:30:45.000 You're done.

00:30:46.000 Go sit and assume your consumption bubble.

00:30:50.000 Sit in your pod, eat your bugs, right?

00:30:52.000 That's you.

00:30:53.000 That's your job.

00:30:53.000 Well, so this goes back to the conversation we were talking about before.

00:30:56.000 Let me pull up this story I find very, very strange.

00:30:58.000 It's about the pods, basically.

00:31:01.000 From Business Insider, most millennial homeowners regret buying their home, survey finds.

00:31:06.000 That just reeks of me of propaganda.

00:31:08.000 Yeah, I want to see how those numbers break down.

00:31:09.000 Millennials, you don't want to own your own home. 1.00

00:31:11.000 Where you're paying less than you would for a rent, and you're keeping all the equity, except for the interest.

00:31:11.000 That's right.

00:31:16.000 No, no, no, you don't want to do that.

00:31:17.000 It's a terrible thing.

00:31:19.000 Does it say why?

00:31:20.000 Does it say, like, millennials want to move around more?

00:31:23.000 Or does it even give any reason?

00:31:26.000 They say 20% said expensive maintenance costs, and 13% said it was because they overpaid.

00:31:31.000 And I look at that and I'm like, this article to me reeks of, live in the pod.

00:31:35.000 We've already got all the eat the bugs articles, the cicadas.

00:31:38.000 By the way, the cicadas are getting smaller.

00:31:40.000 So I went outside today and- It's because the big ones are getting eaten.

00:31:42.000 Well, no, no, no.

00:31:43.000 I think it's because the big ones, the strong ones, came out earlier and then died.

00:31:46.000 And what's happening now is the weaker ones have been slow to emerge and they're much smaller.

00:31:51.000 So we're close to the end of the cicada swarm.

00:31:53.000 But the media has been saying, eat the bugs.

00:31:56.000 Like crazy, even Tucker Carlson is like, I'm gonna eat a bug live on TV.

00:32:00.000 It's delicious.

00:32:01.000 Did Tucker eat a bug on TV?

00:32:03.000 He ate a cicada pastry on TV.

00:32:05.000 The elite wants you to think you shouldn't eat bugs.

00:32:10.000 Of course you can.

00:32:11.000 Of course you can eat bugs.

00:32:13.000 Of course you can, actually.

00:32:15.000 The best Tucker is using actually at the end of a sentence.

00:32:19.000 Yeah, that is very true.

00:32:20.000 And then when he has a guest on, he just goes, The elite want you to think that you're not supposed to eat bugs.

00:32:28.000 You are.

00:32:31.000 But actually, people around the world eat bugs, and they enjoy it.

00:32:36.000 What about lobster?

00:32:37.000 Lobster's a bug.

00:32:38.000 People eat that.

00:32:40.000 Lobster is a bug.

00:32:41.000 You know who doesn't eat bugs?

00:32:43.000 Antifa.

00:32:44.000 Antifa doesn't eat bugs. 1.00

00:32:48.000 Read about Antifa's diet in my new book at AntifaBook.com.

00:32:52.000 Did you study them like animals?

00:32:54.000 This is what they consume.

00:32:54.000 Yes, yes I did.

00:32:56.000 In Chaz they had a whole co-op with food and everything.

00:32:57.000 Bucks.

00:32:57.000 In Chaz they had a whole like co-op with food and everything so yeah.

00:33:02.000 Bucks.

00:33:03.000 No bucks.

00:33:04.000 So it's true.

00:33:05.000 Antifa doesn't need bugs.

00:33:07.000 Confirmed.

00:33:08.000 You should do a video spoof.

00:33:10.000 You should do a video spoof with shots of Antifa and do like the Earth style documentary.

00:33:15.000 Right.

00:33:16.000 The young Antifa approaches the female and performs his dance, a mating ritual. 0.95

00:33:22.000 Anyway, anyway, we're talking about eating the bugs and living in the pod.

00:33:24.000 And then we'll have the Snoop Dogg version on top of that.

00:33:26.000 Yeah.

00:33:26.000 I got some questions about this article.

00:33:28.000 Well, so it's an article.

00:33:30.000 It's not the only one, right?

00:33:31.000 There's also this other story from Reuters that says U.S.

00:33:32.000 consumers sour on housing markets buying conditions.

00:33:35.000 I mean, I guess that's true because the ultra wealthy are buying up these houses.

00:33:39.000 But, bro, they're saying live in the pod and eat the bugs.

00:33:41.000 The people who don't buy houses, have you seen apartments in New York?

00:33:44.000 They are pods.

00:33:46.000 Dude, I remember watching these these stories on like the news or they're like this apartment goes for $3,000.

00:33:50.000 It's a closet.

00:33:51.000 Yeah, it's literally a closet and they're like it's a bed in it I mean, I mean Hong Kong is basically like that, you know, they got these really tiny cramped apartments Now there's there's like a subreddit dedicated for these really awful tiny apartments where it's like a bed next to a toilet in a closet Well, there's there's even worse if you look at some of the illegal housing structure they have set up in Hong Kong and Beijing where it'll be these sort of like large kind of like kind of like room room right now, but Inside the room they'll have essentially what looks like steel rack bunk beds and then you can rent one of the bunks and you might be in a room with like 80 other dudes and you know here's a family that's got like two bunks right but it's like five people and that's it and you go to work and you come back to your bunk and it's like the pod would be like a step up from some of this stuff.

00:34:41.000 Oh yeah.

00:34:41.000 Yeah.

00:34:42.000 Well, that's where we're going.

00:34:44.000 So I think it's time for people to get away from cities.

00:34:47.000 You will love it.

00:34:47.000 And we'll love it!

00:34:48.000 You will own nothing, and you'll be happy.

00:34:50.000 They make that video, but you know what?

00:34:51.000 They're not wrong. 0.51

00:34:52.000 They're not wrong. 0.51

00:34:53.000 People can... Look, this is what I was saying earlier today.

00:34:56.000 If you were born in the 1400s, are you going to complain about not having a smartphone?

00:35:01.000 You wouldn't know what a smartphone is.

00:35:02.000 Are you guys complaining about not being able to teleport right now?

00:35:05.000 Right now, there's a bunch of technology that'll exist in 100 years we don't know about, and we don't have access to it.

00:35:10.000 I mean, we're relatively happy.

00:35:11.000 Teleporting just kills you and recreates you in another place.

00:35:14.000 I'm not a cop, but that's where I stand on the teleportation question.

00:35:16.000 So is it really you?

00:35:17.000 Yeah.

00:35:18.000 Is it really you?

00:35:19.000 Yeah.

00:35:20.000 Well, so look, right now there's a bunch of technology that'll exist in a hundred years

00:35:22.000 we don't know about, and we don't have access to it.

00:35:24.000 I mean, we're relatively happy.

00:35:27.000 That's what it is.

00:35:28.000 So this is what they're exploiting.

00:35:29.000 They're exploiting that if the serfs have access to knowledge, then they will become unhappy with their circumstances. 0.77

00:35:36.000 So they want us to be ignorant.

00:35:39.000 The people who are following the mainstream media, not watching shows like this, not getting a critical thought process through, They're just gonna- Brian Stelter said it, so it must be true. 0.94

00:35:49.000 They're gonna get their home taken away from some ridiculous- They're gonna say, oh no, because of COVID, we've got to take your house now.

00:35:49.000 I'm happy.

00:35:54.000 And they're gonna go, well, if it saves one life, that'll be it.

00:35:58.000 And then people who aren't in those states, in red states- This is what's crazy.

00:36:03.000 The right states are going the other direction.

00:36:04.000 DeSantis, Abbott.

00:36:05.000 No vaccine passports.

00:36:06.000 New York, California, Illinois, Washington.

00:36:08.000 Yes.

00:36:09.000 So what happens?

00:36:10.000 New York says if you want to go to these businesses you need a vaccine.

00:36:13.000 The Excelsior Pass, they call it.

00:36:15.000 So what happens if you're visiting from Texas?

00:36:16.000 Just a tourist.

00:36:17.000 You want to go visit.

00:36:18.000 We don't like your kind around here. 0.97

00:36:18.000 Sorry, can't come in. 0.97

00:36:20.000 Yeah?

00:36:21.000 So people won't go.

00:36:22.000 What'll happen is, people who live in New York who don't want to live under a vaccine passport, in a pod, or eating bugs, will move to Texas. 0.63

00:36:29.000 Yep.

00:36:29.000 Texas will then become ideologically homogenous among people who like freedom, don't want to live in pods, or eat bugs.

00:36:35.000 Ooh, I don't know about that, man.

00:36:36.000 Why?

00:36:36.000 Because I think a lot of people will leave these blue states for a red state, but still vote for all the horrible things that destroyed their state in the first place.

00:36:42.000 They'll go like, oh, I really don't like all of these things the government's forcing me to do, so I'm gonna move somewhere where I'm more free, but then they're just gonna vote for all the same stupid stuff that destroyed their place.

00:36:51.000 I don't think so, because the reason I disagree with that is the people in blue states who are for vaccine passports are happy with them and demanding them.

00:36:59.000 There are these TikTok videos where the girl's like, I can't believe our governor just banned vaccine passports. 0.95

00:37:05.000 Like, how dumb. 0.99

00:37:07.000 They don't want to live there. 1.00

00:37:07.000 They want to leave. 1.00

00:37:08.000 And people in New York are like, why don't we have more?

00:37:11.000 What did Vice.com write?

00:37:13.000 They wrote this article the other day.

00:37:14.000 Why aren't we mandating vaccine passports? 0.99

00:37:17.000 These people are going to jump and cheer to be in New York getting locked in under these things.

00:37:21.000 And people who don't like that will leave not wanting to live that way.

00:37:25.000 And then you will have an actual physical divide between states and ideology.

00:37:29.000 And then it's like the politicians from Washington and the politicians from, you know, Utah or whatever, or whoever else passed a ban on vaccine passports, They are going to be like totally different countries.

00:37:41.000 No shared culture, completely at odds.

00:37:44.000 And then what happens?

00:37:45.000 What happens when New York says, you get Cuomo being like, we have to have vaccine passports because of the potential for a fifth wave.

00:37:53.000 And then he says, we're going to have to lock down the borders like we did last time and do checks for people who are vaccinated.

00:37:59.000 When the pandemic first started, they had cops.

00:38:01.000 At the roads into and out of Manhattan.

00:38:03.000 That's already started to an extent with this.

00:38:05.000 And I think they keep changing the name of the Indian variant or the Nepalese variant.

00:38:09.000 But there's already people saying that we're not sure if the current vaccines that have been rolled out will be effective against the new variant, which is always sort of like one of the corollaries with the vaccine, right?

00:38:20.000 That, hey, this may not affect new variants.

00:38:23.000 Well, it looks like the thing that's actually spreading across India and is now continuing may not be affected by the current.

00:38:31.000 So what happens then if you live in Texas or Florida or North Carolina is an East Coast state.

00:38:37.000 It voted for Trump and they have a substantially lower ratio of vaccinations.

00:38:41.000 What happens if you live there and you try to go to New York?

00:38:43.000 They're not gonna let you in.

00:38:45.000 They're literally gonna bar you and be like, if you're not vaccinated, you can't come.

00:38:48.000 Then you'll have but yeah, you say oh no for sure No, but like the seriousness of it is a hard divide between a very different issue than just Like, you know, you see it with gun owners right now So they have the they have like the drive-thru laws that you like I if I am a gun owner But I'm driving through a state like New Jersey or I'm driving through New York well as long as I'm not stopping and you know spending a total amount of time in that state and Then I can still have my guns in the car, I'm just driving through, right?

00:39:17.000 This isn't my final destination.

00:39:18.000 As long as you, you know, you're following, you know, you have to be broken apart and the ammo has to be separated, et cetera, et cetera.

00:39:23.000 But you can physically have them.

00:39:25.000 This is different because it's, I will not go to that state, number one.

00:39:31.000 Or, I do not want people from that state coming here in number two, and that's only going to lead... I mean, sports teams.

00:39:38.000 What happens with sports teams then?

00:39:39.000 Do they still play?

00:39:40.000 Is that going to be allowed?

00:39:42.000 What happens when a Texas-based sports team, I'm sure which has many conservatives playing on the team, you just don't hear their politics, and they're like, you know, I talked to my doctor, vaccine's not right for me, I don't feel like doing it.

00:39:52.000 Then they're like, well, if you want to go play at the World Series or whatever against the Yankees in New York, you have to, otherwise you can't go in.

00:39:58.000 And they'll be like, nah.

00:40:00.000 This is a hard divide.

00:40:02.000 So a lot of people talked about... It's the Olympics right now, by the way.

00:40:05.000 That's why, you know, we were supposed to be, like, gearing up for, okay, we had the 2020 Olympics postponed to 2021.

00:40:13.000 Summer started, you know, where's the Olympics?

00:40:15.000 Like, where's the gear up towards it?

00:40:16.000 And in Tokyo, they're freaking out.

00:40:19.000 One IOC guy just committed suicide.

00:40:20.000 Just threw himself in front of the subway.

00:40:22.000 It's horrible.

00:40:22.000 Because the sheer amount of pressure that's on them because of all this and all these athletes.

00:40:28.000 And you know, you look at some of these sports, by the way, where, you know, like a lot of them, they live off of the Olympics, right?

00:40:36.000 You can't have the whole sport collapses without that.

00:40:39.000 You know, that Olympics is held every four years.

00:40:42.000 And so, you know, you realize that all of these questions are having very real consequences now, right now, in real time.

00:40:50.000 And are we going to get to a situation where, I mean, I think, you know, you think of like, like the late night comedy, oh, those people in Texas, they won't come up, you know, imagine how insufferable Jimmy Kimmel is going to be.

00:41:03.000 Right.

00:41:04.000 Once that starts, but imagine then how radical.

00:41:07.000 So if Jimmy Kimmel is the leading edge of it, right, then how radical will they, even the more radical people become towards people from, you know, somebody walking down the street with a, you know, a cowboy hat on.

00:41:17.000 Does you, do you become a target now?

00:41:19.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:41:21.000 So Bill Maher said a while ago, we're going to tone down the attacks against Trump and his supporters because it could very well lead to a civil war.

00:41:29.000 Bill Maher actually said that on the show.

00:41:31.000 That's great.

00:41:31.000 I never said that.

00:41:32.000 Yes.

00:41:32.000 That's good for him.

00:41:33.000 Later on, he said there can't be a civil war because the Mason-Dixon line would go through Nana's Kitchen or something like that, which is like a really dumb statement.

00:41:42.000 It's like he thinks time stopped the moment he said those words.

00:41:45.000 Bro, the future is a thing.

00:41:48.000 Things can change.

00:41:49.000 Does he think that like in 1861 they're like, there can't possibly be a civil war?

00:41:54.000 Yeah, a lot of people thought that exactly.

00:41:56.000 So it's like, who do you think you are?

00:41:57.000 You have no idea what could happen.

00:41:58.000 We got all these counties in Oregon just voted to secede from the state and join Idaho.

00:42:02.000 They literally voted to do that.

00:42:04.000 Now whether or not it'll happen, probably not, but the sentiment is there.

00:42:07.000 Now you have through, obviously there's cultural issues, but ultimately it comes down to tribal issues.

00:42:13.000 For tribal reasons, people are choosing to do things.

00:42:16.000 I'm a Republican.

00:42:17.000 I'm gonna wear a mask so that no one thinks I'm a conservative.

00:42:19.000 I'm a Republican. It's insane.

00:42:20.000 Yeah, it's nothing to do with the CDC guidelines.

00:42:22.000 There was a... we had Elijah Schaeffer on the show the other day.

00:42:25.000 And now he's flying back out and he has this tweet. It's fantastic.

00:42:28.000 He said they made an announcement over the intercom on the plane

00:42:32.000 that even though the CDC changed the guidelines on masks, the federal government is still requiring everybody abide

00:42:38.000 by this, which leaves all of these people on the plane confused

00:42:42.000 because they were supposed to do what the CDC said.

00:42:44.000 Now they're being told they can't.

00:42:46.000 So anyway, I digress on that point.

00:42:48.000 It was never about listening to the science.

00:42:50.000 Right, right.

00:42:50.000 So I bring that up because it is totally tribal.

00:42:53.000 And now we are getting the physical dividing line between the tribes.

00:42:58.000 Well, have you ever heard the idea of when your tribe expands and contracts?

00:43:02.000 Well, just one more point.

00:43:03.000 There's a story from NPR that shows if you look at all of the states on a scale of the highest per capita vaccinations to the lowest, there's a line right through the middle.

00:43:14.000 And there's like a weird gap.

00:43:16.000 All of the states that are higher in per capita vaccinations, who did they vote for in 2020?

00:43:22.000 I have no idea.

00:43:23.000 Joe Biden.

00:43:24.000 And on the other side, they're all red except for the four states that were contested by Trump and his team, and I think Missouri.

00:43:33.000 I'm not sure Missouri was contested, but that makes sense.

00:43:36.000 It's kind of a, you know, a twin state.

00:43:38.000 Right.

00:43:40.000 All the Trump-supporting states are lower on the vaccination per capita.

00:43:44.000 And the states that were like really close and were being contested are also slightly lower.

00:43:48.000 And then all the hard blue pro-Biden states, totally like high, 70%, 75% vaccinations.

00:43:55.000 So Washington, they're now rolling out vaccine passports.

00:43:58.000 New York, we're going to see it everywhere.

00:43:59.000 But what's happening is it's not a hardcore thing where they're like, you know, California isn't coming out and saying you must have a vaccine passport or else.

00:44:06.000 They're saying, Oh, yes.

00:44:08.000 Come in, and if you're not vaccinated, you can go into the bathroom and sit down and have your beer, but you can't be near other people.

00:44:13.000 They're making people not participate socially, which creates not a mandate, but a social pressure toward these things.

00:44:19.000 Which means, like I mentioned, people who live in New York who won't live that way will go to Florida or Texas.

00:44:24.000 I know... How many people do you guys know move to Texas recently?

00:44:26.000 Oh, that's great.

00:44:27.000 Texas and Florida.

00:44:28.000 A bunch!

00:44:28.000 Texas and Florida.

00:44:29.000 We had some guests here, and I'm not going to say who they are because I don't know if they've announced they're moving to Texas, but they're like, yeah, I'm moving to Texas.

00:44:34.000 And I'm like, several people.

00:44:36.000 And Florida, Luke, who was on this show for two months. 0.98

00:44:39.000 Luke, what are you doing, you traitor? 0.99

00:44:41.000 He went to Florida! 0.99

00:44:44.000 Yeah, I moved to the South about six years ago.

00:44:46.000 Oh, how was it?

00:44:46.000 Went down there for school and never left.

00:44:48.000 So I don't know anyone who's moving to Texas because I'm already in the South, you know?

00:44:51.000 There's nowhere to go.

00:44:52.000 DeSantis is doing a pretty good job.

00:44:54.000 Not perfect, but nobody is.

00:44:55.000 And he's doing probably one of the best jobs in the country as a governor, in my opinion.

00:44:59.000 And so people want to be there.

00:45:00.000 But I don't like living in, like, people need to understand the humidity in Florida is so intense, you're swimming.

00:45:07.000 You're like, you're basically just underwater.

00:45:09.000 Trump left.

00:45:10.000 He said, he's like, I'm not doing this.

00:45:13.000 I'm going back to New York.

00:45:15.000 What?

00:45:15.000 He's going back to New York?

00:45:16.000 He went back to New York for the summer.

00:45:17.000 He said, I'm not even going to be here.

00:45:19.000 He's a Florida resident now, but he's up in... Did he get vaccinated?

00:45:23.000 He did.

00:45:24.000 They said he did.

00:45:25.000 I think Ivanka did it publicly, so I took a picture.

00:45:27.000 She did it publicly, but then Trump... They said he was vaccinated and Melania before they left the White House, but they never really made a big public thing out of it.

00:45:37.000 What about Barron?

00:45:39.000 I don't know.

00:45:40.000 Yeah, no idea.

00:45:41.000 He's not in the at-risk category.

00:45:43.000 I wonder if Trump would do that.

00:45:45.000 I just think, you know, when New York, they've announced this massive, I think it's like a $17 million expansion.

00:45:50.000 They're funding the Excelsior system.

00:45:52.000 It's more than just vaccines.

00:45:54.000 The Excelsior system is going to track your medical history, period, and your age and a bunch of other things, which means they could actually say, like, you can't be over 55 to come in here, scan your Excelsior pass.

00:46:03.000 They're like, they're really getting into this.

00:46:05.000 So let me go back to what I was going to say earlier, is that You know, people are generally tribal, right?

00:46:13.000 You know, that's how humanity developed, you know, with these bands of tribes.

00:46:17.000 And then as cities and then city-states started to become more developed, your tribe expanded, right?

00:46:25.000 And so if you look into, I think we're all generally millennials slash elder millennials.

00:46:29.000 No, he's a Gen Xer.

00:46:30.000 I'm kind of, I'm right on the bridge of millennial and Gen Z. Okay.

00:46:34.000 What year were you born? 95.

00:46:35.000 Oh, wow.

00:46:36.000 I think you were Gen Z. I might be.

00:46:38.000 I don't know.

00:46:38.000 I've heard different definitions, though.

00:46:41.000 You're kind of on the bridge.

00:46:42.000 Yeah, you're kind of on the bridge of Gen Z. But anyway, put it this way.

00:46:45.000 So if you look like 80s, 90s.

00:46:46.000 You're a millennial.

00:46:47.000 Right.

00:46:48.000 OK.

00:46:50.000 Your tribe was generally pretty much the United States of America, right?

00:46:55.000 You know, I'm an American first and then you're everything else, right?

00:46:58.000 Then you have your religion and then your state and then what sports team you like, et cetera, et cetera.

00:47:02.000 And then, you know, the enemy is The Soviets! 0.88

00:47:05.000 Or, you know, then eventually it became, you know, the terrorists!

00:47:08.000 Tersh. 0.86

00:47:09.000 You have to say it like that.

00:47:11.000 You know, for a while.

00:47:11.000 Tersh.

00:47:12.000 But then, you know, really starting past 2008 and, you know, I don't make this an Obama thing, but like, I think it's a word of financial as well, that with that financial instability, that you saw a breakup of that idea.

00:47:27.000 And so because in in times of scarcity, right, the tribes get smaller.

00:47:33.000 And you're because we're looking, you know, we're thinking instead of this, these these abundant You know, this idea that the future is always going to be great, we're looking at the next frontier, we're setting space shuttles up all the time, right?

00:47:46.000 You know, that's my childhood.

00:47:47.000 Now, I take my kids to Cape Canaveral, the space shuttles are in museums, and Elon Musk and Bezos are like doing something, but we're not really sure if it's real or not, you know?

00:47:57.000 It doesn't feel the same, or it doesn't have that same sort of national ethos behind it, the same way that the space shuttle program did.

00:48:03.000 And there's this question of, like, what team am I on?

00:48:08.000 Or some people question, are you the left or the right?

00:48:10.000 You know, I don't even remember anyone talking like that when I was younger.

00:48:14.000 It's like, yeah, you know, I voted for Democrat.

00:48:15.000 I voted for Republican this time because I like this team better.

00:48:18.000 I like this political form better.

00:48:20.000 But there wasn't this idea that, you know, you had to be on one side all the time, 24-7.

00:48:27.000 And so the question, you know, really psychologically speaking is, is that something that's downstream of economics?

00:48:35.000 The same way that, you know, we say politics is downstream from culture, but is culture downstream from economics?

00:48:39.000 Yeah, I mean, it's obviously all really intermingled, but there's something interesting there about resources contracting and then people really wanting to almost oust people from their side.

00:48:48.000 It's almost like this biological response.

00:48:50.000 There's less for all of us, so we need to find a reason to expel people so that there's more for me.

00:48:54.000 It is fascinating.

00:48:55.000 And I think, ironically enough, that actually exacerbates the problem, too, because the less people are working together, the less able they are to build up the economic resources that would allow for them to not have to oust people.

00:49:05.000 You know, historically, part of what would get people ousted, too, is getting sick, illness, communicable diseases.

00:49:11.000 You know, you throw them out of the castle.

00:49:12.000 Five-year-old has symptoms?

00:49:14.000 Even if it's your sister's son or whatever.

00:49:14.000 Throw them out.

00:49:17.000 We need only look at Chicken Society to learn our important lesson.

00:49:21.000 When a chicken gets sick or is hobbled or weak, they go nuts.

00:49:23.000 They attack it.

00:49:24.000 Now, it's really interesting, though, because something I just said a moment ago, I want to walk back a little bit or at least expand upon, because I mentioned that when you start ousting people or purging them from your group, people aren't working together, so you're less likely to develop the economic prosperity.

00:49:24.000 They'll kill it.

00:49:40.000 That would be necessary for people to live in harmony, but I wonder if that's a correction mechanism because it's very much possible, and I would say probably a concrete fact, that once people are really economically prosperous, they become much less selective about the kind of behavior that they're willing to tolerate.

00:49:54.000 We see this in very developed countries.

00:49:57.000 The moral fabric tends to begin to dissipate.

00:49:59.000 And so maybe hard economic times are a correction mechanism for that and people sort of returning to a structure where they are more selective about the kind of behavior they'll tolerate because it can't continue forever with anyone doing whatever they want or else the entire system gets destroyed.

00:50:15.000 It was bad morals that got us into this economic returning place, it seems like.

00:50:18.000 Something really weird happened in the past five years with a dramatic cultural shift.

00:50:24.000 And it's funny, we bring it up from time to time, but left and right are meaningless at this point.

00:50:28.000 Sort of.

00:50:30.000 I mean, sure, we use them as tribal signifiers for the most part.

00:50:32.000 They're relative.

00:50:33.000 I've said this before, I do think that the left in many ways are descendants Of the initial left, when I just look at this main common threat from the left at the time of the French Revolution, when the term was first coined, has always existed to oppose the Catholic Church and its values in battle against tradition.

00:50:51.000 And that's still true today of the left.

00:50:52.000 But there's this really strange shift that happened.

00:50:55.000 So just before the show, I played the song Hit That by The Offspring.

00:51:00.000 And I'm like, if you listen to those lyrics, it sounds like a very conservative song.

00:51:03.000 It's talking about the consequences of hookup culture.

00:51:07.000 And I'm like, if you were in an article right now, no joke, take The Offspring, punk band, pop punk, mainstream, whatever, but this is 2003, take that song.

00:51:15.000 Take the lyrics and turn it into an article.

00:51:18.000 So when they say like, you know, the consequences are a life away, you can say like your work work.

00:51:23.000 Imagine putting into like a relationship article.

00:51:26.000 Yeah.

00:51:26.000 Well, you'd be called far right.

00:51:28.000 Yeah.

00:51:28.000 You'd be called far right.

00:51:29.000 Yeah.

00:51:30.000 Criticizing Tinder and hookup culture and misogynistic.

00:51:33.000 She's internalized patriarchy, toxic purity culture. 1.00

00:51:33.000 Yep. 1.00

00:51:37.000 You know anti-female Self-hatred if it was written by a female, you know, what

00:51:42.000 about her? She's internalized patriarchy pure toxic purity culture 1.00

00:51:46.000 One of my favorite punk rock songs is why don't you get a job? I know I know it's pop punk. It's not like

00:51:51.000 Yeah, so, you know, I was I thought about this before I tweeted about it several months ago

00:51:55.000 But I was thinking about again about how do we get to how do what happened?

00:51:59.000 You know, what happened?

00:52:00.000 Did Trump, like, take a sledgehammer to the system?

00:52:02.000 Did the multiverse shatter and different realities merged and just, like, nothing makes sense anymore?

00:52:08.000 Technological.

00:52:09.000 I'm racking my brain for what changed technologically.

00:52:11.000 Six, seven years ago.

00:52:12.000 It's the streaming capability.

00:52:14.000 That's something.

00:52:15.000 What were you going to say?

00:52:15.000 Well, so no.

00:52:16.000 So, you know, that whole bit sort of, you know, everybody under 40 knows that this all started with Harambe, but we're not sure why.

00:52:24.000 You know, but actually I was talking to a friend of mine recently who shall remain nameless, but he actually had a good answer for why we all sort of agree that it's Harambe and what You know, he looked at Harambe as a symbol of society is just subtly out to get you and they will just kill you for no reason.

00:52:24.000 Right.

00:52:47.000 Even though, not to get into whether or not Harambe should have been killed, but you know, because the kids in there and all, but that just sort of the larger meta narrative that's going on there, that you could be hanging out one day and that society will just come and boom, like a meat cleaver.

00:53:01.000 I hear the theory, I respect it, but I think the more obvious theory is just that Harambe was an interdimensional Time Lord who was holding together the multiverse.

00:53:09.000 No, no, this is for the members thing.

00:53:11.000 You're gonna get us banned again.

00:53:13.000 What are you doing?

00:53:14.000 You're gonna shut down completely over here.

00:53:17.000 The guy who killed Harambe was like a secret agent sent from like another dimension.

00:53:21.000 And like, you know, he walks in like a Terminator.

00:53:24.000 Takes his glasses off.

00:53:26.000 The kid that Virata was trying to protect.

00:53:28.000 He's like a future leader.

00:53:30.000 I don't know if Virata was trying to protect the kid.

00:53:32.000 I've actually seen a really good one, a really good meme of this recently.

00:53:37.000 Quick child, you need to understand, Dr. Fauci is improving experiments with the Wuhan Institute of... You've got to warn... He's out.

00:53:49.000 Which brings us to our next story actually. Thank you Harambe for the segue.

00:53:53.000 House Republicans demand answers about why Facebook censored lab leak theories

00:53:57.000 after it emerged that Mark Zuckerberg was emailing Dr.

00:54:00.000 Anthony Fauci.

00:54:01.000 Look man, do we have a conspiracy fact at some point?

00:54:06.000 I saw a really funny meme from somebody where it shows, it was like 2018 and it was like conspiracy theorists and it's a picture of the guy like all crazy.

00:54:14.000 And then the next picture says, it says 2021 conspiracy analyst.

00:54:18.000 He's wearing a suit and glasses and he's all like respectable looking.

00:54:21.000 Because, okay, so now what do we have?

00:54:23.000 Behind the scenes, Fauci and Big Tech and these labs were all saying things they were saying the opposite of publicly.

00:54:29.000 Like, at a certain point, is there at least... Can we call it, on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being, like, the least and 10 being the worst, it's a level 1 conspiracy?

00:54:37.000 Like, not a whole lot going on.

00:54:40.000 I'm not gonna pretend it's the apocalypse.

00:54:42.000 But certainly Mark Zuckerberg was colluding with Dr. Fauci to censor factual information, right?

00:54:47.000 That's surreptitious.

00:54:48.000 That's unethical.

00:54:49.000 That's amoral.

00:54:50.000 Happening behind the scenes between powerful interests to suppress the public from communicating.

00:54:54.000 Well, the one with Tim, that's been debunked.

00:54:56.000 It's been debunked!

00:55:02.000 If there is one thing I learned over the past five or so years, it's that something can very quickly go from conspiracy theory to fact.

00:55:10.000 I mean, if you asked me at the beginning of Trump's administration if the deep state would attempt to unseat a democratically elected leader, I'd be like, come on, that's crazy talk.

00:55:18.000 And then if you asked me if there was an international global pedophile who had ties to virtually every politician in the country, or a large number of them, I'd be like, that seems a little bit out there.

00:55:27.000 And then if you told me the guards would fabricate records and fall asleep or whatever, and then he would die in his jail cell, I'd be like, get out of here, dude.

00:55:36.000 We do not live in a movie.

00:55:38.000 You want to know what's really funny?

00:55:39.000 That one, I'm like, have you ever been around the federal government before?

00:55:44.000 I do want to say one point, just don't forget what you're going to say.

00:55:46.000 We shouldn't, okay, we got to call it, when you put out the theory, you're bunking, and then the journalists will try to debunk, and then after they're proven wrong, it's re-bunking.

00:55:54.000 Re-bunking?

00:55:55.000 Yeah, re-bunking.

00:55:56.000 No, that on top of everything that's just gone on with these leaks from Dr. Fauci.

00:55:59.000 Tim, that's absolutely re-bunkulous.

00:56:01.000 Re-bunkulous.

00:56:02.000 And all of the information about the pandemic we were told was just conspiracy theory, much of which turned out to be true.

00:56:08.000 It just seems to me that the difference between a conspiracy theory and a fact is like three months to a year.

00:56:13.000 Conspiracy analyst.

00:56:14.000 Yeah.

00:56:16.000 And I'm not big into conspiracy theory by any means, but it's just disturbing to see so many things that I would have shrugged off years ago as insane nonsense being proven totally correct.

00:56:26.000 Well, so, you know, a lot of this, you know, I think comes down for a lot of people.

00:56:29.000 It's pattern recognition, right?

00:56:30.000 So I remember those initial task force meetings that, you know, Fauci was airing and sometimes Pence would be leading it.

00:56:38.000 Sometimes Trump would be there and it would, you know, get into a huge Um, you know, combativeness with the media, and they would be asking him all sorts of awful questions, etc, etc.

00:56:46.000 But I actually would pay attention to Fauci and Burks, who is like totally gone now.

00:56:50.000 When they were talking about this, and why is, you know, why is it that COVID-19 spread so quickly?

00:56:57.000 You remember, we were always told it's the spike proteins and the ACE2 receptors, and it's the ability of the spike proteins to affect these ACE2 receptors in human lungs, and they fit so perfectly, and that's why it's able to spread so well in humans, right?

00:57:12.000 You get the droplets on you, and that's it.

00:57:12.000 That was the idea.

00:57:14.000 Droplets?

00:57:15.000 I was trying to do that without saying the word droplets.

00:57:19.000 And so that, but that's, that's, you're hearing this all the time.

00:57:22.000 And I said, Oh, that's, that's interesting.

00:57:23.000 And that's, that's, that's very good.

00:57:25.000 Right.

00:57:25.000 I'm going to write that down.

00:57:27.000 And, and then when the Wuhan lab started coming up and we started looking into this, they took down their database very quickly, but we were able to find archived copies of this now.

00:57:36.000 And some of it I'm reading in Mandarin, some of it we're able to translate.

00:57:40.000 But when you're looking at some of the actual.

00:57:44.000 tests and research that was done and has been published in the literature.

00:57:48.000 You say, well, okay, what, what, you know, what is gain of function research?

00:57:51.000 The heck, a year ago, I couldn't have told you what that meant, right?

00:57:53.000 Maybe even two years ago.

00:57:57.000 And you say, well, they were trying to, they modified mice to give them this ACE2 receptor in their lungs.

00:58:05.000 And then they were using gain-of-function research with, to essentially speed up the development of these coronaviruses that they had, you know, collected from this mine, an abandoned mine or cave system in a Kunming area that had spike proteins to, so that they would have spike proteins.

00:58:21.000 And I had said, Huh, wasn't that the same thing that the guy was talking about before with the two and you know, right?

00:58:28.000 This is me just complete layman here, but these are the same two terms that I just heard from the task force meeting.

00:58:34.000 So what's going on with that?

00:58:35.000 That was the Wuhan lab doing that.

00:58:37.000 Right.

00:58:37.000 Okay, so now let's debunk something of our own here.

00:58:40.000 Well, actually, credit goes to Daily Mail.

00:58:43.000 No bats or pangolins were sold at Wuhan wet markets immediately before COVID-19 pandemic started, Oxford study says.

00:58:50.000 Research looked at 50,000 animals traded in Wuhan from 2017 to November 2019.

00:58:54.000 Scientists found no evidence of bats or pangolins kept in the markets in the city.

00:58:58.000 But they say other animals traded could have easily spread COVID-19.

00:59:00.000 Okay, well, then the wet market bat thing. 0.98

00:59:02.000 Debunked, right?

00:59:03.000 According to them, yeah.

00:59:04.000 There you go.

00:59:06.000 I read that article, I shared it today, I shared the study, and... But as a guy who had spent a couple years living in China, I'm familiar with the wet markets, it always seemed completely insane to me that people would eat food that came out of these things.

00:59:21.000 Bro, have you seen gutter oil?

00:59:23.000 Gutter oil?

00:59:24.000 I've heard about this.

00:59:24.000 Yes.

00:59:25.000 It's where they harvest used oil from sewer lines, filter out the garbage, and then boil it and use it for cooking.

00:59:32.000 Where do they do this?

00:59:33.000 In China.

00:59:34.000 I've probably had it.

00:59:35.000 I've probably had it.

00:59:37.000 There are times where I'm eating street food where they're like, hey, I know you're going to lie when I ask you what kind of meat this is, so just don't even tell me anything.

00:59:47.000 It's probably rat.

00:59:48.000 I don't know.

00:59:49.000 That's what people say.

00:59:51.000 Not knowingly, not deliberately, not intentionally, certainly not intentionally.

00:59:58.000 There was, I remember there was one place in Shanghai and a couple of the guys I was over with, you know, when I started out doing a study abroad there and then I ended up staying, but there were a couple of guys who went in and said, Hey, I had dog, right?

01:00:08.000 And it's like, how was it?

01:00:09.000 It's kind of stringy.

01:00:10.000 I don't know.

01:00:11.000 Yeah.

01:00:11.000 But anyway, going back, how could you know?

01:00:15.000 For the past three years, exactly which animals were in this wet market and which ones were not, right?

01:00:22.000 Right.

01:00:23.000 How can you really tell that there were no bats or no pangolins at all in this market?

01:00:29.000 That just, to me, that sounds like a bridge too far.

01:00:31.000 And I know that it certainly kind of fits in with what everyone's been saying.

01:00:35.000 And I think there's actually a lot better evidence to talk about.

01:00:37.000 For me, the one I can't get past in terms of lab leak theory is How do you get a disease outbreak that's directly related to bats, or at least bats with one, what do they call it, transmission vector animal in the middle, without it affecting any local populations that live in close proximity to any of these things?

01:01:02.000 You're talking about the middle of a downtown urban center.

01:01:05.000 And I've read some of the, you know, like the Nature Journal articles talking about this.

01:01:08.000 They say, well, you know, Wuhan's in a, it's in a, it's in a broad region.

01:01:14.000 What do you mean it's a broad region?

01:01:15.000 Right?

01:01:15.000 Every region is broad.

01:01:17.000 If your aperture is wide enough, it doesn't make any sense.

01:01:19.000 So this is a huge urban industrialized area.

01:01:22.000 Like show me the town where this broke out.

01:01:24.000 That's near the bat caves that has the animals, right? 1.00

01:01:28.000 The zoonotic response.

01:01:29.000 Like that's what I'm waiting for that I'm looking at.

01:01:32.000 Let's talk about a crazy, uh, I hate the word conspiracy theory because what I'm going to describe right now is not a conspiracy in any sense of the imagination.

01:01:40.000 What is it?

01:01:41.000 Just that it's obvious that there is a surface news world and a warf- like a governmental

01:01:48.000 news world.

01:01:49.000 Meaning there's top secret confidential secret information we don't have access to.

01:01:54.000 So when- Currently.

01:01:57.000 I mean, it comes out eventually, or we hope it does.

01:01:59.000 But right now, in the U.S.

01:02:01.000 government, in the Chinese government, they are dealing with a level of information that we can't see.

01:02:05.000 So we're on the surface.

01:02:07.000 You know, I'm willing to bet that there's some, like, NSA guy sitting in his room right now watching the show, because he loves it, and him and his buddies are just, like, drinking and laughing, being like, they're so wrong about all of this!

01:02:17.000 China's on the moon, and we've got, you know, underwater bases, and...

01:02:22.000 I'm not saying it's actually that crazy.

01:02:24.000 Having been in that world, you know, I hate to say that, but like, I can't, I'm not allowed to confirm directly, blah, blah, blah.

01:02:31.000 But it's, it's not, it's not that, it's not that far removed from reality.

01:02:37.000 I'm just saying like, it's pretty close.

01:02:38.000 It's pretty close.

01:02:39.000 So when we're like, oh man, you know, the, the, the air force moving these planes.

01:02:44.000 There's somebody who's like, oh, well, actually, we're doing this.

01:02:45.000 We're not going to publicly say what we're doing with our Air Force.

01:02:48.000 That's what confused me about how they told us that all the Air Force is now spread out around the Pacific and that we're re-diverting a weaponry from Middle East to China.

01:02:55.000 Like, why would we be told that?

01:02:57.000 Why would the world now be told all that information?

01:02:59.000 Well, that's, I mean, for a variety of reasons.

01:03:02.000 Number one, number one, though, is show force.

01:03:04.000 Yeah, it's like bravado.

01:03:06.000 You can't hide a B-52 bomber, right?

01:03:08.000 You can't hide an aircraft carrier.

01:03:10.000 So that what you're talking about, that's a survivability operation.

01:03:13.000 So you're separating your force.

01:03:15.000 You can even see this on a smaller scale where like, when the Syria strikes were going on, or and then you know, the US kind of telegraphed that, hey, we're probably going to strike there.

01:03:23.000 You would see the Syrian Air Force.

01:03:24.000 They'd all take off because they didn't know which base was going to get hit, but they knew it's going to be one of them.

01:03:28.000 So part of it, it's it's it's sending a message.

01:03:32.000 It's posturing.

01:03:33.000 A lot of this stuff gets gets done on a very regular basis.

01:03:36.000 It goes back to even the Clinton administration when when China threatened Taiwan during some of their first presidential elections or some of the more contentious presidential elections.

01:03:46.000 You know, you would see this, but it it doesn't necessarily mean that it's leading towards kinetic action.

01:03:52.000 Jack.

01:03:53.000 You, you know things.

01:03:56.000 I do.

01:03:56.000 You have been chosen, unfortunately.

01:03:57.000 Are rods from God real?

01:04:00.000 Well, define, I mean, which, which kinds?

01:04:01.000 Do we have satellites loaded with tungsten rods to drop on?

01:04:05.000 Oh, the tungsten rods.

01:04:06.000 Yeah, they call them rods from God.

01:04:07.000 Yeah, yeah, that one.

01:04:08.000 No, because I've heard that also used with the, like, different types of, like, directed energy.

01:04:14.000 It was in G.I.

01:04:15.000 Joe, the second one, where Cobra Commander takes control of the satellite, and then it drops a tungsten rod, which then slams into the earth and blows up London.

01:04:24.000 We have some cool satellite stuff.

01:04:27.000 Not that I've never seen anything like that, but we have some pretty cool satellite stuff.

01:04:31.000 I'm waiting for that Starlink.

01:04:33.000 So I looked into it.

01:04:34.000 We're actually supposed to wait any minute.

01:04:36.000 Yeah, because this would be an area where Starlink is supposed to serve.

01:04:39.000 We would publicize it every day, too.

01:04:41.000 That'd be awesome.

01:04:42.000 Can someone call Elon and be like, get these guys Starlink?

01:04:45.000 Because I paid for it.

01:04:47.000 We're on the waiting list.

01:04:48.000 So how does it work?

01:04:49.000 So people know what it is, right?

01:04:49.000 Yeah.

01:04:50.000 Yeah.

01:04:51.000 It's, it's, it's high speed, low latency was like gigabit internet for satellite, right?

01:04:55.000 And they send you a box.

01:04:57.000 You just open the satellite thing, plug it in and you put it by the window, I guess.

01:05:01.000 So it was the idea of satellite TV, right?

01:05:01.000 I don't know.

01:05:04.000 But with your internet connection.

01:05:06.000 Yeah, so the thing about standard internet... We have a satellite internet backup system.

01:05:11.000 For some reason, it didn't work the past few days, but it's like 5 megabits up.

01:05:14.000 So it's really difficult to actually do a broadcast.

01:05:17.000 But it works.

01:05:17.000 It'll be grainy, low-res.

01:05:19.000 With Starlink, it would be broadcast quality for pennies on the dollar.

01:05:22.000 This is what makes Elon's Starlink so competitive.

01:05:26.000 We're on the waiting list, so from right now until the end of the year, at any moment, the box could arrive.

01:05:33.000 I don't know if there's somebody, you know, can we call somebody and be like, hey, you know, just like, look, we're on the list.

01:05:37.000 Invite Elon on the show.

01:05:38.000 Tell him, hey, you can, you can manipulate whatever, you know, crypto you want to.

01:05:42.000 Just let us know which one to buy.

01:05:43.000 And, you know, give you, give you five minutes.

01:05:45.000 And, you know, I don't, I don't know if you smoke in here or not.

01:05:48.000 Like the Rogan.

01:05:49.000 Family friendly.

01:05:50.000 Family friendly.

01:05:51.000 Oh, sorry.

01:05:51.000 Sorry, Elon.

01:05:52.000 Of course we'd love to have Elon on, but like I'll settle for getting a Starlink so we never lose internet again.

01:05:58.000 So we can do the show.

01:05:59.000 That'd be cool if we did our first Starlink show with Elon.

01:06:02.000 Oh, that'd be so fun.

01:06:03.000 Yeah, that'd be rad.

01:06:03.000 That's what you gotta do.

01:06:04.000 So it's apparently sold out now.

01:06:06.000 Yeah, so in this area, cause like we're kind of in the middle of nowhere.

01:06:06.000 Really?

01:06:10.000 It's like an hour and a half from DC.

01:06:11.000 So it's like, when you look on the map, it's just like, you can't really tell because DC's massive and we're just like a tiny little blip away.

01:06:19.000 But mountains, trees, it's like basically West Virginia.

01:06:24.000 Just a bunch of, you know, Trump-supporting, you know, right-wing nutjobs who live out here for the most part.

01:06:29.000 Well, did you see that tweet from Virginia Heffernan from the LA Times earlier today talking about the gun ownership for the 50-mile radius?

01:06:38.000 No, she was saying she was saying, I think I guess she was like buying a house or just looking at this this issue. 0.98

01:06:45.000 She's talking about she's totally ridiculous. 0.74

01:06:47.000 She's the one who had the Trump supporting neighbor who was shoveling her lawn and she was like, or something or driving like, I don't know if I should thank him. 0.98

01:06:56.000 What should I say to this?

01:06:57.000 Did he really shovel my driveway?

01:06:58.000 Is the snow actually gone?

01:07:00.000 Did he shovel it out of hate?

01:07:02.000 I mean, it was white snow, so, you know, and perhaps he's building some sort of, you know, snow wall.

01:07:08.000 So no, she had a tweet up today where she was saying in real estate listings, they should, this is the LA Times columnist, she's worked at Wired, that they should include how many people own guns around you for a 50 mile radius.

01:07:23.000 And then, you know, correct me if I'm getting any of this wrong, and then include a list of all the mass shootings

01:07:30.000 that have taken place in conjunction.

01:07:32.000 Now, obviously, having a list of all the gunners is completely illegal.

01:07:35.000 But also, like...

01:07:37.000 There are websites you can look at for criminal reports in a particular area as well.

01:07:40.000 That's what I was saying. I just, I just quote tweeted and I was like, yeah, who wants to tell her?

01:07:44.000 Because I'm willing to bet that in some of the lowest crime radiuses of the United States, there's a ton of law abiding

01:07:53.000 gun owners.

01:07:54.000 It depends on the crime, right?

01:07:56.000 So out here there's a whole lot of drugs.

01:07:58.000 Sure.

01:07:58.000 But it's like people strung out.

01:08:01.000 I'm guessing, I might be reading between the lines, I'm pretty sure she means violent crime.

01:08:05.000 Right, right.

01:08:06.000 She actually says gun violence.

01:08:09.000 Oh, she says gun violence in there, yeah.

01:08:10.000 Yeah, actually, I'm pretty sure it's a lot safer out here.

01:08:13.000 I'd be more worried about Chicago.

01:08:15.000 Lots of gun laws and lots of people shooting each other.

01:08:18.000 Like West Virginia's constitutional carry and people like... I hear gunshots all the time.

01:08:24.000 You know, the other day... Yeah, Baltimore's not that far away, though.

01:08:27.000 Well, so this is something I explained a while ago.

01:08:29.000 When I live in New York and I hear gunshots, that freaks me out.

01:08:32.000 Right.

01:08:32.000 Because you're not supposed to.

01:08:33.000 Also, it's a really dense urban area.

01:08:34.000 Like, what are they shooting?

01:08:35.000 Right.

01:08:36.000 Out here, it's like, I wake up and there's gunshots.

01:08:38.000 Actually, I wake up and I'm kind of worried when there aren't gunshots.

01:08:40.000 I'm like, oh, the neighbor's not out.

01:08:41.000 Is something wrong?

01:08:42.000 Yeah.

01:08:42.000 Neighbors are just, you know... I'm worried about the neighbors, man.

01:08:46.000 Yeah, one time I think one of the neighbors came out with his kids because it was just like, sounded like, it sounded full auto, but it was just like four people just shooting all at the same time.

01:08:56.000 That should be legal.

01:08:57.000 There's places in West Virginia where you can do that.

01:09:01.000 Some of the training I did when I was still in the intelligence community, we did out in a spot in West Virginia where they were able to get licenses and permits to shoot.

01:09:10.000 We shot some pretty fun stuff.

01:09:12.000 Oh yeah, we just shot 50 BMG a couple weeks ago.

01:09:14.000 There's a range in Georgia where you can shoot full auto.

01:09:16.000 It's great.

01:09:17.000 Really expensive, but it's great.

01:09:19.000 There's a thing they do at DEFCON, which is the Hacker Convention, where in the early days they go out into the Mojave and they set up a bunch of guns.

01:09:30.000 And when I went there several years ago, that was like 8 years ago maybe now, This guy had a, like, belt-fed 7.62, I think.

01:09:37.000 And it was like, you gotta pay for the rounds yourself, and then have at it.

01:09:42.000 So he had big boxes of, you know, belts, and it's like... M24?

01:09:46.000 I don't know which gun it was.

01:09:47.000 He had, like, three different ones.

01:09:49.000 And they were just like, people were like... Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:09:51.000 It was awesome.

01:09:54.000 Yeah.

01:09:55.000 Yeah, we did.

01:09:56.000 We did that this place down with Ashley St.

01:09:59.000 Clair, and we were outside of outside of Houston.

01:10:01.000 They call it Hella Bacon, where you can you you can actually get permits to go up and do this.

01:10:06.000 And a company that runs it is totally not commercial, et cetera, et cetera.

01:10:10.000 But you so they do one range day where you can just I mean, anything you want to shoot, literally anything up to and including a minigun RPG.

01:10:19.000 Oh, yeah.

01:10:19.000 You can do an RPG.

01:10:20.000 No, no, no, no.

01:10:21.000 Come on.

01:10:23.000 Um, and then the next day you get up super early, in a helicopter, they take you up to shoot wild hogs.

01:10:29.000 Yes!

01:10:30.000 With full auto AR-15s, and you're flying over the ranch, and the ranchers want you to do this.

01:10:36.000 Full auto AR-15s?

01:10:36.000 Full auto AR-15s.

01:10:37.000 Modified or what?

01:10:38.000 Uh, they're modified.

01:10:38.000 It's like fire.

01:10:39.000 Wow!

01:10:40.000 Yeah.

01:10:40.000 Isn't that just an M16?

01:10:43.000 No, no, because they're still the compact.

01:10:45.000 Yeah, a lot of people don't understand how bad hogs are. 1.00

01:10:48.000 It's horrible.

01:10:49.000 So the ranchers want you up there doing it, right?

01:10:52.000 This is an invasive species. 0.74

01:10:53.000 They are pests.

01:10:55.000 They tear it up. 0.99

01:10:56.000 They kill.

01:10:58.000 They can go after livestock.

01:11:00.000 But it's wild and people don't realize the culture difference because On your way to these ranches, you know, you're, you're flying there and you're up in the air above, you know, I'm looking down like this.

01:11:12.000 There's a talent right below me.

01:11:13.000 Right.

01:11:13.000 You know, and now it's Texas.

01:11:15.000 So, you know, you, you pop off there, you're gonna start shooting back.

01:11:17.000 This is my thing on the great reset.

01:11:19.000 I'm totally, it's totally different from the East coast kind of mentality.

01:11:24.000 If the Great Reset is limited to if you live in big cities, you eat the bugs and live in the pod, I'll be like, okay.

01:11:30.000 Like, if you have a choice to live in these awful places, sure, whatever, people can choose to do that.

01:11:34.000 There are always going to be hogs to hunt.

01:11:36.000 It is impossible to get rid of them.

01:11:38.000 It's impossible to get rid of them.

01:11:39.000 It's open season on them basically everywhere where they exist and they still can't keep the numbers down.

01:11:43.000 We were up there for hours and they just kept coming.

01:11:45.000 Yeah, we just had we stopped because we're running we're running low on fuel and we're like well We got flight out any anybody who's familiar with any kind of MMORPG knows that you know, there's hogs. 1.00

01:11:54.000 They're just responding Level up, you know, so I know so my level I mean I came in pretty low like I was like a level as Much South Park got this wrong You can't just kill hogs boars to level up because as soon as once you're a few levels above them You stop getting experience for doing it You were well-rested though, so you got an XP bonus?

01:12:14.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:12:16.000 Eventually gotta go for the most dangerous good.

01:12:18.000 Like the boss hog?

01:12:20.000 The boss hog. 0.96

01:12:21.000 You gotta find the boss hog. 1.00

01:12:22.000 Giant, 20 foot.

01:12:24.000 So they had coyotes as well.

01:12:26.000 Hunting coyotes?

01:12:27.000 We had coyotes out there as well, yeah.

01:12:28.000 You know what they need?

01:12:29.000 Wolves.

01:12:30.000 We can find them.

01:12:31.000 The issue is that, uh, in a lot of places, with wolves being displaced, because they were a threat to us, right?

01:12:37.000 Right.

01:12:37.000 And so they fled.

01:12:38.000 Then you get invasive species running rampant, deer population explodes.

01:12:42.000 Man, people don't understand why, uh, you hunt deer, and they're, and these city people- It's also true.

01:12:46.000 Yeah, I'll put it this way.

01:12:48.000 I'd be willing to bet, let's do a study, that if you went to a city and asked this question, okay, here's a question for you, Jack.

01:12:54.000 You see a butterfly caught in a spider's web.

01:12:56.000 Do you free it?

01:12:58.000 Me, personally, no.

01:12:59.000 Why not?

01:13:01.000 Because I know that that spider is going to be there.

01:13:04.000 It's going to then consume the butterfly and all those other pests and gnats and...

01:13:10.000 I don't know if a spider would go after a cicada, but maybe. 0.68

01:13:12.000 So the idea is a filtration system.

01:13:16.000 Right.

01:13:17.000 I'd be willing to bet that if you go to a city or if you go to like a liberal and ask,

01:13:20.000 they'd free the butterfly.

01:13:21.000 Whereas a conservative wouldn't.

01:13:24.000 Because obviously we understand the beauty of the butterfly.

01:13:26.000 I could be wrong.

01:13:27.000 I could be totally wrong about this. 1.00

01:13:28.000 Maybe liberals are just ruthless and they're like, kill them both or something crazy. 0.99

01:13:31.000 I don't really think that. 0.95

01:13:32.000 I think they typically would be like, the butterfly is an important pollinator and it's beautiful and a part of nature and it shouldn't die to a spider.

01:13:37.000 A spider can eat anything else.

01:13:39.000 And so a lot of conservatives would probably just be like, circle of life, you know?

01:13:42.000 The spider eats the bugs, eats the pests, butterfly or not.

01:13:45.000 So that's a difference in mentality.

01:13:47.000 I think about, you know, so we're city folk out here.

01:13:49.000 We had a deer feeder and they were like, oh, you're going to kill some deer.

01:13:52.000 And we're like, no, I'm just going to feed them.

01:13:54.000 I'm like, why?

01:13:55.000 No, they're like, they're awful. 0.98

01:13:55.000 They're pests. 0.98

01:13:57.000 We hate them. 0.99

01:13:58.000 That's exactly what it was like.

01:13:59.000 They overpopulate.

01:14:00.000 They destroy crops.

01:14:01.000 They destroy trees.

01:14:02.000 They need to, the population levels need to be kept down. 0.99

01:14:04.000 Otherwise they get diseased and ridden with like nasty parasites. 0.99

01:14:08.000 They starve to death. 0.92

01:14:09.000 And so they're like, don't just feed them.

01:14:10.000 And I'm like, well, the good news is they don't like the deer feeder.

01:14:12.000 The birds do.

01:14:13.000 And they're like, oh, the birds are fine.

01:14:15.000 Hey, we had this growing up.

01:14:17.000 Valley Forge Park was always a huge place for us to go on weekends.

01:14:22.000 Ended up actually got engaged, got married right near there.

01:14:27.000 But because it's federal protected, it's a federal park, a national park, the deer know this.

01:14:32.000 And so they know if they go in, they go in there.

01:14:35.000 Well, they know that this is like a safe area, right?

01:14:39.000 So you get to the point where, I mean, when it's dusk, you like can't drive around, right?

01:14:43.000 Because the deer are everywhere and they're tearing up all this stuff.

01:14:47.000 And a lot of the land right there, that's actual, you know, some of it, it's some of these dirt forts and different fortifications that were made by the actual continental army under George Washington during that winter.

01:15:01.000 Philadelphia has fallen, the British have taken it. 1.00

01:15:03.000 This is prior to the crossing of the Delaware and the Battle of Trenton, or just before that, I should say.

01:15:11.000 These deer are tearing up actual US history, and this is Pennsylvania, so people are like, Can we go after the deer, please?

01:15:20.000 And the federal government had to do this whole like permit system to let people go in and then hire guys from like the USDA to come in.

01:15:27.000 So there's actually like a deer death squad, basically.

01:15:31.000 I believe it's under USDA from years ago.

01:15:34.000 And I'm like, how do you sign up?

01:15:36.000 Oh, yeah.

01:15:37.000 Which department are you with?

01:15:38.000 USDA, you step aside, the deer's ours.

01:15:40.000 Step aside, kid man.

01:15:42.000 Step aside, baby.

01:15:43.000 I hope you're all sitting down because this might infuriate you, but this morning I saw a deer and it was eating our mulberries.

01:15:49.000 What?

01:15:50.000 It was eating our mulberries?

01:15:52.000 Tim, what are guns for?

01:15:54.000 I know!

01:15:55.000 Defending the mulberry.

01:15:57.000 And I was shaking like, I can't kill Bambi! 1.00

01:15:59.000 And it was like, your mulberries are mine!

01:16:02.000 Don't worry, it was Bambi's mom.

01:16:04.000 We have pawpaw trees out here.

01:16:05.000 Do you guys know what pawpaws are?

01:16:06.000 That's like Simpsons. Don't don't let their bovine nature fool you.

01:16:09.000 Given the chance a cow would kill you and your entire family. 0.97

01:16:14.000 We have pawpaw trees out here.

01:16:16.000 Do you guys know what pawpaws are?

01:16:18.000 They're like, I guess they're like mango and banana combined.

01:16:20.000 Oh, yeah. Yeah.

01:16:21.000 It's like the only fruit of that type in North America or something.

01:16:26.000 So we have this tree.

01:16:27.000 And I remember seeing like the deer were always crowding on our driveway

01:16:29.000 because there's a tree right there.

01:16:31.000 And, you know, in August and September, whatever, all these fruits are there.

01:16:33.000 And they're like they're in the middle of the road.

01:16:36.000 So no, no, for real.

01:16:37.000 Like when you're coming down at night, there's no streetlights or anything.

01:16:39.000 No, no. You got to be real careful.

01:16:41.000 And then you see him standing there really dumb. 0.99

01:16:42.000 Yep. They just like they'll walk up to the car, just stare at you as you're like, 0.98

01:16:45.000 hey, like, what's this? I'm like, heck.

01:16:48.000 Yeah, like, we talk about Darwin Awards, but no, really.

01:16:51.000 There's just too many of them.

01:16:52.000 We got turkeys, too.

01:16:53.000 We got a lot of turkeys.

01:16:54.000 Yeah, I've seen them walking around in the woods, dude.

01:16:56.000 Sticking up on you.

01:16:56.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:16:57.000 Yeah, they walk up to you and start pushing.

01:16:59.000 You're like... Alright, I'm just trying to get back to the house.

01:17:04.000 I was unprepared for how well you gobbled.

01:17:07.000 No, but it's the same thing when you talk to people out here.

01:17:09.000 They're like, turkeys, huh?

01:17:10.000 We can help you out with that.

01:17:11.000 And I'm like, what's the problem?

01:17:13.000 They're like, turkeys are pests.

01:17:14.000 Like, you gotta get rid of them. 0.72

01:17:16.000 They're like, turkeys are bad people, Tim.

01:17:19.000 Then like, they have a video of turkeys spray painting a property.

01:17:24.000 Turkeys are just spray painting and vandalizing a property. 0.97

01:17:27.000 It's like the beginning of one of those cop shows and you see that Yeah.

01:17:30.000 Yeah, it's the turkeys.

01:17:31.000 Of course it was the turkeys.

01:17:32.000 He just like sniffed.

01:17:33.000 The turkeys were up.

01:17:33.000 Dude.

01:17:34.000 Someone saw a mountain lion out here.

01:17:37.000 Not cool.

01:17:37.000 Yeah, out where rare.

01:17:38.000 Yeah.

01:17:38.000 Really?

01:17:39.000 Like really, really.

01:17:39.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:17:40.000 Which is, I don't know why.

01:17:41.000 It's rare.

01:17:42.000 It happens.

01:17:42.000 Yeah.

01:17:43.000 But we were told that on this side of the river, because if you guys have ever played any MMORPG, you know that certain mobs can only spawn on certain sides of the river.

01:17:52.000 Like if you're in... Different zones.

01:17:53.000 Yeah, like, if you're in Elwynn Forest, you know that the boars and the gnolls don't spawn in Darkshire, and the ghouls don't spawn in Elwynn.

01:18:00.000 So, uh, across the river from us, there's, like, bears, and it's, like, way more serious, because it's West Virginia, but in the Maryland side, they're, like, you don't gotta worry about anything.

01:18:08.000 It's, like, deer.

01:18:09.000 It's, like, really low-level stuff.

01:18:10.000 But every so often a bear or a bobcat or a mountain lion will be spotted.

01:18:14.000 And so people were saying, like, not too far from here in this area in Western Maryland, they spotted like a mountain lion or whatever.

01:18:20.000 So they're like, you got to be careful.

01:18:21.000 Now think about that.

01:18:23.000 You live out one of these houses.

01:18:24.000 You get an alert.

01:18:25.000 You see on Facebook, like, guys, we got a report from the local authorities.

01:18:28.000 There's a mountain lion spotted in the area.

01:18:30.000 Please be armed and safe.

01:18:32.000 Think about that.

01:18:33.000 Please be armed and safe.

01:18:35.000 And now you get these laws.

01:18:36.000 Air 15, come on man, ain't nobody need 15, you know, 10 rounds.

01:18:41.000 And then people are like, if you can't hit it in 10 rounds, you shouldn't be shooting at it.

01:18:46.000 Okay, so I'm not a professional military man or law enforcement guy, but I want to keep my friends and family safe from a mountain lion.

01:18:54.000 And if it takes me more, look, maybe I'm really bad and I'm like trying to protect myself from a mountain lion.

01:19:01.000 Yeah, maybe I need to have a standard capacity magazine of 30 rounds.

01:19:04.000 If you're not a marksman, your whole family should die if someone breaks in.

01:19:08.000 That's right. 0.97

01:19:09.000 If a mountain lion breaks in.

01:19:10.000 Given that situation, I mean, you know, I have a good military background, but I've never considered myself to be like, you know, like, There's certain, I don't know, like, as you call them influencers, pundits out there that are like really focused on Second Amendment and shooting and like that's their whole thing.

01:19:27.000 I love them.

01:19:28.000 They're great guys.

01:19:29.000 I've always been more like the current events, breaking news kind of guy, but just to, you know, defend the AR-15 for a second, right?

01:19:36.000 that you're talking about a firearms platform, where the reason so many people use it is because it is versatile.

01:19:44.000 And because it is something that has a great accuracy for someone who is a hobbyist for someone who is, you know, just getting kind of getting into guns, that you're going to have a better propensity for actually hitting your target rat rather than you're using like, like a Glock or a .45, any 9mm, any handgun, right?

01:20:06.000 Certainly at a greater distance, right?

01:20:09.000 You are going to put your rounds on target in a safer, more controlled situation with an AR-15 than you would with almost any other firearm out there, speaking generally.

01:20:20.000 Think about this.

01:20:21.000 Do you guys remember the story about the guy who went to the Empire State Building and it was like a revenge killing?

01:20:25.000 It was a disgruntled employee.

01:20:27.000 No.

01:20:27.000 So he goes to the Empire State Building, he's all angry, and then he takes a handgun and he shoots a bunch of people.

01:20:32.000 He leaves the building, and the NYPD, they run up to stop him, and they start firing wildly, hitting like seven or so people.

01:20:38.000 Oh yeah, I remember that part of the story.

01:20:39.000 Let me see if I can pull it up.

01:20:39.000 When was this?

01:20:40.000 Two or three years ago, I think?

01:20:42.000 I totally don't remember this.

01:20:43.000 It's kind of tragic.

01:20:44.000 I think seven people got hit?

01:20:45.000 That's my guess.

01:20:47.000 I'm guessing it's seven people other than the guy there.

01:20:49.000 Yeah, they didn't hit the guy.

01:20:50.000 It's 2012.

01:20:51.000 All Empire State shooting victims were wounded by officers, according to police.

01:20:55.000 So, on a busy Friday morning... Let's pull this off.

01:20:58.000 Let's jump into the story.

01:21:00.000 How long ago did this happen?

01:21:01.000 This is CNN from 2012.

01:21:02.000 What month?

01:21:04.000 August.

01:21:05.000 And so they say... I was in training for Gitmo back then, so I missed a couple.

01:21:09.000 All Empire State shooting victims were wounded by officers.

01:21:12.000 On a busy Friday morning in Manhattan, nine pedestrians suffered bullet or fragment wounds after police unleashed a hail of gunfire at a man walking with a .45 caliber pistol who had just killed a former co-worker.

01:21:23.000 The officers unloaded 16 rounds in the shadow of the Empire State building at a disgruntled former apparel designer, killing him after he engaged in a gun battle with police, authorities said.

01:21:33.000 Three passerbys sustained direct gunshot wounds, while the remaining six were hit by fragments, according to the New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly.

01:21:39.000 All injuries were caused by police.

01:21:42.000 All injuries were caused by police!

01:21:44.000 One officer shot nine rounds and another shot seven.

01:21:47.000 Police identified the gunman as Jeffrey Johnson, 58, who was apparently laid off from his job as a designer of women's accessories at Hazan Import Co.

01:21:55.000 last year.

01:21:56.000 Johnson served in the U.S.

01:21:57.000 Coast Guard in the mid-70s, had two rounds left in his pistol, and holds eight, Kelly said.

01:22:02.000 Now, I just want to point something out.

01:22:04.000 What do you think would have happened if those officers had rifles?

01:22:07.000 AR-15s. 0.74

01:22:10.000 I mean, you can never say right, but if they're going at range and this guy's moving, if he's, you know, if he's being furtive, if he's trying to, you know, use cover and concealment, they would have had a better, just talking based on the numbers, they would have had a better chance of hitting him directly with the AR-15.

01:22:28.000 And let's not even say a 5.56.

01:22:29.000 Let's say the police were given a short barrel 9mm with a stock.

01:22:34.000 Like, come on, man.

01:22:36.000 You know, I understand we want the cops to be armed.

01:22:39.000 Oh, well, they would say militarization of the police.

01:22:42.000 Right, right, right.

01:22:43.000 Exactly.

01:22:43.000 Yeah, that would be the response.

01:22:44.000 So they're saying, the cops, you know, a Glock 17 or whatever.

01:22:47.000 These cops miss!

01:22:49.000 It's not an easy thing to do.

01:22:50.000 They complain about police brutality.

01:22:51.000 It's like, okay, then give them a short-barreled rifle or AR pistol with a stock, and they will be way more accurate.

01:23:01.000 One shot fired, guys down.

01:23:02.000 Stop the murderer dead in his tracks as he started shooting at cops.

01:23:05.000 Less bullets fired, more accurate.

01:23:07.000 This is a good example of, like what you're saying.

01:23:09.000 That's exactly what I'm talking about, yeah.

01:23:11.000 It's not just the idea of militarization of police.

01:23:13.000 It's the idea of AR-15s are dangerous!

01:23:16.000 It's like, dude, people with handguns?

01:23:19.000 I'll admit, maybe it's just me, but rifles way easier.

01:23:23.000 I go to the range and I can hit everything with the AR-15.

01:23:26.000 Well, you've got a longer barrel, so it's more stable, it's more forgiving, basically, for those little mistakes.

01:23:36.000 With a 4-inch barrel on a handgun, you've got to be front sight focused, you've got to be dead on, you have to have your T all the way across.

01:23:44.000 Real quick, this is what people don't understand, is that they assume an AR-15 is firing 5.56.

01:23:48.000 It's like, get a 9mm rifle.

01:23:51.000 Yeah, there are different variants.

01:23:53.000 Or a .45 subsonic, slower and more accurate.

01:23:56.000 Also, I mean, the vast majority of gun violence is committed with handguns.

01:24:04.000 All rifles combined, including the AR-15, kill fewer people every year than hammers do.

01:24:09.000 I think sharks too, right?

01:24:11.000 It's incredibly rare.

01:24:12.000 I don't know about sharks.

01:24:14.000 Yeah, that's that's the thing.

01:24:15.000 And this is what that judge actually in California recently who struck down the, the firearms ban, the assault, quote unquote, assault weapons.

01:24:22.000 Yeah, which it's funny, because like, I'll go to like, you know, any, any gun store online, you type in assault weapon, I can't tell you, I don't sell defense weapons.

01:24:31.000 It's weird all day long.

01:24:32.000 It's weird.

01:24:34.000 I walked into a store and I was like, hello, sir, I would like to buy one assault weapon.

01:24:37.000 And the man said, that's not... One assault weapon, please.

01:24:40.000 One assault weapon, please.

01:24:41.000 One weapon for assault?

01:24:42.000 They're like, leave right now.

01:24:44.000 The words you're saying don't make sense.

01:24:47.000 The judge in this case, in that, you know, I haven't gone through the whole thing.

01:24:50.000 It's really long opinion that he wrote, that he put down.

01:24:54.000 But the first part of it, which was driving, you know, sort of like the anti-gun types nuts.

01:25:00.000 They say it's called it like a Swiss army knife.

01:25:02.000 And it says it's like a Swiss army knife because it's there when you need it.

01:25:05.000 And it solves so many different, uh, different situations, different problems, different challenges that arise.

01:25:11.000 And the vast majority of this is like, this is the most popular gun in the United States.

01:25:16.000 The vast majority of people who use this, uh, never use it to medic to commit a crime.

01:25:22.000 They are lawful.

01:25:23.000 They are law abiding.

01:25:24.000 They're using it safely for lawful legal purposes.

01:25:27.000 This is exactly what I've been trying to tell people about my Barrett M82.

01:25:30.000 You know, like, what happens if, like, I don't know, an international band of terrorists that, like, the Fast and the Furious crew, they're fighting, and I see this helicopter, and I'm like, look, I gotta protect my property from this international cabal led by Charlize Theron, and so I've got a 50 BMG.

01:25:46.000 You never know.

01:25:47.000 And she's not gonna be able to hit you from the helicopter. 0.98

01:25:50.000 I do love this though because like we posted the vlog where I have the Barrett and it's a 50 BMG and we were shooting at a plate or whatever and then these lefties are like, what are you gonna hunt with that?

01:26:00.000 And I was like, what does hunting have to do with anything?

01:26:03.000 Yeah, hunting.

01:26:04.000 You said plate, but for half a second I thought you said plane.

01:26:07.000 It's like, Tim, what are you doing?

01:26:10.000 Steal plates.

01:26:11.000 We were hoping that it would vaporize the target.

01:26:14.000 Because the steel plate was rated for .308, and we were like, if we hit this, it's probably going to block.

01:26:20.000 One person, Dan, got a glancing shot, so it just dented it.

01:26:25.000 But it was also on a wooden, you know, it was mounted, so it absorbed a lot of the hit.

01:26:28.000 There's some places you can go where I've done, and this is in West Virginia, where they'll let you do, like, abandoned cars.

01:26:33.000 Oh man, my gosh.

01:26:34.000 With the glass in and everything.

01:26:36.000 Yeah, we had a BMW and a Mercedes, and we were like, take that, woman said. 0.89

01:26:42.000 Class war! 0.98

01:26:43.000 I also got to at one point with one of these things and they just buy these junk cars for you to be able to use and for tactical training they actually got one of the trainings we went through was firing a firing handgun from the driver's seat through the windshield at a target Oh, yeah.

01:27:00.000 So learning how the difference of the angle of the windshield versus, you know, your target.

01:27:05.000 So, okay, your target's here.

01:27:06.000 So you want to shoot center mass, but because of the angle of deflection, you actually want to kind of fire down in a sense.

01:27:13.000 So that it bends as it hits the glass and bends up.

01:27:15.000 It's crazy.

01:27:16.000 Yeah.

01:27:17.000 Very good.

01:27:17.000 Refraction and action.

01:27:18.000 And people need, that's crazy.

01:27:20.000 It was, it was, it was just amazing.

01:27:20.000 It was awesome.

01:27:22.000 I always tell people behind the engine block, right?

01:27:26.000 So you can do these tests where they'll have the car.

01:27:28.000 That was in the George Floyd Square.

01:27:30.000 That was when the shooting broke out.

01:27:32.000 You can actually hear, and I'm guessing it's some security who's there with like, it was like some British or foreign reporter and he doesn't know what to do.

01:27:41.000 And here's this guy just go, get behind the engine block.

01:27:43.000 Go, go! 0.99

01:27:44.000 And that's, yeah, don't hide behind the doors and don't ever do that.

01:27:47.000 In the movies, the cops are literally behind the door and I'm like, dude, that's like a millimeter of steel or aluminum.

01:27:54.000 Some police cars will have some armor there, but yeah, just don't assume your car isn't up armored.

01:28:00.000 You know, if God forbid you're ever in that situation, you engine block all day long.

01:28:03.000 However, I don't know if you guys wanted to get into this, the engine block is also what allows for pit maneuvers to take place.

01:28:12.000 Oh, that video that came out.

01:28:14.000 because yes the engine block is this large chunk of metal right that's right

01:28:20.000 in the front of the car but that's also what leaves a car's weight balance

01:28:25.000 completely off right so your trunks never going to have more weight than the

01:28:31.000 engine there's this video that's going viral where a cop is trying to pull over

01:28:34.000 this woman for some like minor traffic violation and he just I think she's 1.00

01:28:37.000 speeding I think she was speeding so he decides to murder her to just straight 0.79

01:28:40.000 up kill the woman what so I'm being a bit hyperbolic he performs a pit 0.52

01:28:44.000 maneuver and flips her vehicle over and crashes it and then he walks over and 0.98

01:28:48.000 she's like help and he's like pulling her out of the overturned vehicle

01:28:53.000 Yeah, you're not even describing it.

01:28:55.000 I wouldn't even describe it like that.

01:28:57.000 It's it's he so she clearly slow like she speed. 1.00

01:29:01.000 I would say she's speeding, right?

01:29:02.000 Yeah, because I watched the whole video.

01:29:03.000 I mean, she definitely looks like she's speeding. 1.00

01:29:06.000 I can't see any of the other cars on the road.

01:29:08.000 So you don't know if she's like going up much faster than everybody else.

01:29:10.000 She's clearly going too fast for conditions. 0.99

01:29:12.000 Um, so he goes to pull her, puts the blinkers on.

01:29:15.000 So, but then there's no like shoulder, right?

01:29:18.000 There's no safe spot for her to get off. 0.97

01:29:20.000 So she puts her turn signal on as if she's looking for an exit, but no exit appears.

01:29:25.000 So she slows down and there's a very noticeable change in her rate of speed.

01:29:30.000 at this point in the video. And she puts her emergency lights on, right? Like, hey, I understand,

01:29:37.000 like, she's clearly signaling to the officer that, you know, I acknowledge that you were behind me,

01:29:42.000 that you have your lights on. And she's like, just looking for somewhere to do that safely,

01:29:48.000 which you would think and he decides to write this up as if she's fleeing and says like, hey,

01:29:56.000 I've got a fleeing suspect. I'm I'm within my rights here.

01:30:00.000 I'm going to execute a pit maneuver.

01:30:01.000 So for people who don't know, a pit maneuver is when you use that, again, as I was talking about, that weight, that imbalance that exists in all cars that, you know, except for the, you can still do it, but the ones that don't have, some cars have the engine in the rear.

01:30:15.000 Some Volkswagens used to have it.

01:30:16.000 Tesla's can't do it.

01:30:18.000 Yeah, you wouldn't be able to do it.

01:30:19.000 So another reason to have Elon Musk on.

01:30:24.000 And so you use that weight of your engine block to essentially smack the back of another car and have it spin out of control.

01:30:33.000 Now in the proper setting, the car is just supposed to spin around so that it can't travel forward and then it stops the vehicle, stops forward progress.

01:30:43.000 What happens here is he attempts a pit maneuver while the car is already close to the shoulder, right?

01:30:50.000 So that's one of those like a Derek Chauvin thing where like, is that how they teach you to do a pit maneuver?

01:30:56.000 Because where's the car going to spin?

01:30:58.000 It's obviously going to smack into the shoulder, which it does.

01:31:02.000 Then crosses the lanes, hits the other shoulder, head on, the car flips, it's an SUV, flips over, so already a lot of weight imbalance issues inherent in SUVs.

01:31:11.000 I used to drive an H2 over this radio station I worked for, and it was like the worst possible thing to ever drive in, right?

01:31:18.000 I can imagine.

01:31:19.000 Any conditions, and this thing's like wobbling all over, like you never, the death traps, absolute death traps.

01:31:25.000 But hey, billboard on wheels, right? And so he gets out of the

01:31:29.000 car and he's like strolling up to this thing where, you know,

01:31:34.000 and it's one of those look, I you know, I don't know he was thinking I don't want to describe intention based off a

01:31:39.000 video but looks bad looks looks really bad looks really bad that

01:31:43.000 he does not seem does not seem very, you know, worried that you

01:31:49.000 know, he's just flipped a car over and potentially somebody could be injured, dead, or anything.

01:31:55.000 And in, I'm certainly, I'm sure this will come up in the case, but he also doesn't seem to perceive a threat because he doesn't, and I go back and watch the video, but he doesn't appear to have his gun drawn.

01:32:04.000 And he's, you know, he's not thinking like, oh, this is some hardened criminal that, you know, I have to be worried about.

01:32:09.000 So his gun's not drawn.

01:32:10.000 He's not approaching stealthily or anything like that.

01:32:13.000 He's just sort of, Walk like it's the weirdest thing.

01:32:16.000 He's just walking like he's in shock like he thinks he killed somebody.

01:32:19.000 No, he seems like indifferent I, yeah, I don't even see that.

01:32:23.000 And again, you know, that's, that's me looking at a couple seconds of video.

01:32:26.000 I can't, I can't tell.

01:32:27.000 I'm not going to try to mind read somebody.

01:32:29.000 The cop was in the right lane and she had to exit.

01:32:29.000 That's fair.

01:32:32.000 So she sped up to pass him, to get into the right lane, to exit rather than slow down, to get behind him, to exit.

01:32:38.000 Like that's an awkward situation where you need to exit and someone's on your right.

01:32:40.000 And you got to either, well, I don't think there's an exit at all in the video.

01:32:43.000 I don't think there's any exit that comes up.

01:32:46.000 Like there's nowhere for her to go basically.

01:32:48.000 And it's one of those ones where it's like.

01:32:51.000 At that point, if that were me, and I know that there's a cop behind me with his lights on, I would just pull over on the shoulder.

01:32:59.000 If I really couldn't find anywhere, because I know that other cars are going to see that, and I'm not getting out of my car anyway, so if he really wants me to pull over and there legitimately isn't anywhere to go, I would just pull over on the shoulder.

01:33:11.000 Well, how about we take Super Chats, everybody?

01:33:13.000 If you have not already and you like the show, you gotta smash that like button.

01:33:16.000 It really does help.

01:33:18.000 Subscribe to this channel.

01:33:19.000 Share the show with your friends if you think it's important and the conversations we have are important.

01:33:23.000 And go to TimCast.com, become a member.

01:33:24.000 We'll have a bonus segment coming up.

01:33:26.000 We usually put them up around 11pm.

01:33:28.000 And maybe you've noticed, we publish them immediately.

01:33:32.000 So that as soon as the video is done encoding, after it's uploaded, you'll be able to watch it.

01:33:35.000 But that means if you get there too early, it's like you're watching the encoder process.

01:33:39.000 It's better than us sitting around, like, just not publishing it for an hour, and then you have to wait a longer amount of time.

01:33:44.000 But hey, it is what it is.

01:33:45.000 Go to TimGuest.com, sign up.

01:35:21.000 And he's like, at least 42?

01:35:24.000 That's exactly right.

01:35:25.000 It is at least 42.

01:35:27.000 Something like that.

01:35:29.000 Hungdred says, can't wait until the blue cities feel the economic burden from ostracization of unvaxxed.

01:35:29.000 All right.

01:35:35.000 FuzzyBunny says, ShviftyFive, have you seen that viral video where the woman gets a scam call and she answers it like a robot?

01:35:56.000 It's great.

01:35:58.000 And then it shows, you guys remember ShviftyFive from GroupX?

01:36:00.000 No.

01:36:01.000 Come on, you know that, That's why Seamus makes funny videos cuz he knows what he's talking about.

01:36:12.000 I just I barely remember that video I just remember it was like some I just remember like a little animation.

01:36:16.000 I just want bang bang bang.

01:36:17.000 Oh my gosh I don't remember that part.

01:36:18.000 I can't recommend it.

01:36:19.000 All right.

01:36:19.000 It's bad.

01:36:20.000 Let's uh, let's we got I'll fight you naked says Letter to a woke heart says has anyone at Timcast read it?

01:36:20.000 All right.

01:36:25.000 Letter to a woke heart says has anyone at Timcast read it?

01:36:30.000 It's short. Anybody read letter to a woke heart?

01:36:32.000 Negative.

01:36:33.000 Who wrote that?

01:36:34.000 I don't know.

01:36:35.000 I can look it up.

01:36:35.000 Oh, hi Ben!

01:36:37.000 Hey, there you go.

01:36:37.000 Ben's my friend!

01:36:38.000 Nice.

01:36:43.000 That was the same question I got last time.

01:36:49.000 He's up in New York right now.

01:36:51.000 He ended up not even coming back to D.C.

01:36:54.000 so he's stuck in New York and he literally will not leave this hotel.

01:36:58.000 I have his mug.

01:36:59.000 You have his mug?

01:36:59.000 I somehow ended up with literally his mug.

01:37:01.000 That's amazing.

01:37:02.000 Someone who knew him took it from his house or something and then someone else was hanging out with him and then got it.

01:37:07.000 He did.

01:37:08.000 Big deal, though.

01:37:09.000 Huge deal.

01:37:10.000 First haircut he's gotten in like two years.

01:37:14.000 He just just it's not.

01:37:15.000 Yeah, it's not.

01:37:16.000 If you're watching the show, it's not doesn't have it back.

01:37:19.000 That's an actual haircut.

01:37:19.000 So kudos to him.

01:37:20.000 All right.

01:37:21.000 Let's read some more.

01:37:21.000 We got Anthony Campos says Biden is bought by China with him as president.

01:37:25.000 Going to war with them makes no sense.

01:37:27.000 It costs millions for rallies that Trump is about to do.

01:37:29.000 Makes me think who is really makes me think who really is in charge.

01:37:33.000 Tim Foyle hat, please.

01:37:35.000 A Tim Foyle hat.

01:37:36.000 Nicholas Hooker says, did you see Ashley Babbitt's family is suing to release the identity of the officer who killed her?

01:37:41.000 Also vote Chiara Terrarelli for NJ Governor.

01:37:46.000 I think I did hear that.

01:37:47.000 That was a little while ago, right?

01:37:49.000 The family was suing?

01:37:50.000 Yeah, I think that the, I know there's a lot of speculation over, you know, is it this officer?

01:37:54.000 Is that officer?

01:37:55.000 I have to imagine in that lawsuit, that name is going to come out.

01:38:00.000 Yeah, hope so.

01:38:01.000 Jason Q2 says, big ups to CastCastle.

01:38:04.000 Entertaining for sure seeing the pad.

01:38:05.000 Hoping members events showcase Tim's speakeasy and casino gaming operation in the basement of Secret Bunker.

01:38:11.000 We shall persevere.

01:38:12.000 We actually have a poker table.

01:38:15.000 Yeah, but it's like it's the gaming table.

01:38:16.000 So if like we're playing magic or a board game, you've got like it's a it's a cushion on the edge and you can have a cup holder.

01:38:22.000 But I was also thinking, you know, we'll play little fun silly poker games and like we have tokens for the slot machine in the arcade.

01:38:27.000 So you can like win that stuff.

01:38:29.000 Listen, Sky Matheson never tells anybody where the game's gonna be, but the action's always here, and the action's always here in the Tim Pool House.

01:38:34.000 I just want to mention something.

01:38:35.000 We're up to 7.7k likes.

01:38:37.000 That's great, but it is not what we agreed to, ladies and gentlemen.

01:38:39.000 Let's get 10,000 likes on this video.

01:38:41.000 It is Seamus' birthday at some point this year, and also for him.

01:38:46.000 You know what I'm even more proud of?

01:38:49.000 Not quite, but very proud of the video that Tim and I just released where Tim voices Dr. Fauci.

01:38:55.000 It was hysterical.

01:38:56.000 We almost cried laughing recording it.

01:38:59.000 We were crying laughing.

01:39:00.000 Were there any specific words that came up?

01:39:00.000 Lydia was there.

01:39:06.000 Droplets!

01:39:07.000 Droplets coming from my eyes!

01:39:10.000 You guys have to watch this video.

01:39:13.000 I was very proud of it.

01:39:15.000 Tim and I were crying laughing.

01:39:16.000 And also, for people who support the show at patreon.com slash freedomtunes, you can watch the behind the scenes of us recording and crying laughing.

01:39:23.000 We used this setup right here to do the VO, because after the show finished, I was like, oh, Seamus, do you have that VO you want me to read?

01:39:29.000 So we just turned the camera on and filmed it and you can hear Seamus being like, say it like this, say it like this.

01:39:33.000 And I'm like, okay, and then I redo it.

01:39:35.000 The whole thing is great because it's like, it's like the, it's like a kid and he's breaking up with Dr. Fauci.

01:39:41.000 It's like, I don't want you in my life anymore.

01:39:43.000 And he's like, if you break up with me, your grandmother will die.

01:39:48.000 Don't get talking about you're always hyperbolic don't don't give too much of it away you guys Give away, we won't give away the surprise and I think there's a sequel that's maybe it's right Oh, yeah, we we literally improvised a sequel right after we recorded it and we honestly I think that was even funnier like this one's really funny, but like I Yeah, we I think we were like really crying laughing We were just like coming up with everything on the spot It was and then as as we were walking away James like no I got to record one more thing He runs back and starts recording again.

01:40:22.000 I did yeah Like what if Trump said this and then Tim gave it I'll say this yeah, it was very it was very organic.

01:40:28.000 It was great.

01:40:29.000 Yeah, well We'll see we'll see that the sequel comes out All right, let's see.

01:40:34.000 David Maki says UAP Tech can be built in a garage.

01:40:37.000 Prove it to yourself.

01:40:38.000 You can make a capacitor thruster out of a SI slash graphene wafer and a laser mirror based on quantized inertia theory and the McBecker and Bott Capacitor Thruster XP.

01:40:50.000 I have no idea.

01:40:52.000 What?

01:40:53.000 Ian!

01:40:54.000 Well, what are you using the laser for?

01:40:56.000 To move it around?

01:40:57.000 I don't know.

01:40:58.000 I don't know.

01:40:59.000 Should we build a surf like a hovercraft where we can fly?

01:41:01.000 Yes.

01:41:01.000 Unqualified yes.

01:41:02.000 though. Should we build a surf? A surf like, like a like a like a hovercraft where we can fly? Yes. Because we can

01:41:10.000 build I don't want to call it qualified. Yes. I don't want to build

01:41:12.000 a quadcopter. Have you seen the flying motorcycle where it's

01:41:16.000 just two big fans? And you Yeah.

01:41:18.000 The problem is controlling left and right is difficult.

01:41:20.000 That's why people like doing quad, but maybe you could do two small jets on the side.

01:41:25.000 Kind of like how the flight suits work.

01:41:27.000 So they're not for lift, they're for stabilization.

01:41:29.000 Right.

01:41:29.000 And then you just have the two big in the front and you could, you know, ride it around.

01:41:32.000 Maybe we just build like with the hobgoblin head or the green goblin in Spider-Man.

01:41:35.000 Yeah, we'll just build that and we'll fly around.

01:41:38.000 And then Ian, you can work on the pumpkin bombs, but we're a family friendly show.

01:41:41.000 So it'll just be like whipped cream comes out.

01:41:43.000 Sure, yeah, it's tasty.

01:41:47.000 That'll be over at Cast Castle.

01:41:49.000 This past weekend I went hunting for cicadas.

01:41:51.000 I have a gun that shoots salt for bugs, and so I was actually catching the cicadas and then, you know, I was hunting cicadas.

01:41:58.000 He really got into it.

01:41:59.000 He had like the paint on.

01:42:01.000 I was hiding.

01:42:02.000 I was in a deer blind waiting for the cicada to come out.

01:42:05.000 It was like a belt of cicada heads.

01:42:06.000 And then he saw a cicada in front of him, but then one popped out his side.

01:42:10.000 I was like, meh!

01:42:11.000 Making that cicada noise.

01:42:12.000 He's like, clever girl.

01:42:14.000 The actual problem is the bug thing.

01:42:16.000 It doesn't actually hurt the cicadas.

01:42:18.000 It just stuns them.

01:42:19.000 It doesn't even stun them.

01:42:20.000 It just makes them angrier, dude.

01:42:21.000 And then they come after you.

01:42:22.000 You don't want an angry cicada on your hands.

01:42:23.000 Dude, they're screams.

01:42:23.000 No, I don't.

01:42:25.000 No, no joke.

01:42:26.000 Dude, they scream.

01:42:27.000 One landed on me, and I was like poking him to get him off.

01:42:30.000 And he's just sitting there, and I poke him.

01:42:34.000 It's terrifying.

01:42:35.000 So the lively ones are loud.

01:42:37.000 And you get a lot of them together, a whole swarm.

01:42:39.000 You'll go by like a tree.

01:42:42.000 You know, I tried to do like a bike ride with my kid once a day, and we'll go under the tree.

01:42:47.000 And it's just like, And I saw it was so brutal because someone here collected a bunch of a bunch of Cicadas in a jar to feed to the chickens and they just got thrown into the little chicken area and city the chicken city and they're just laying on the ground like

01:43:07.000 Like screaming and the chickens are just massacring them.

01:43:11.000 Like one chicken is like picking up a cicada and like shaking it around as it's screaming.

01:43:14.000 I was like, I'm like, you know, this is why I don't feel bad when I eat chicken at all.

01:43:18.000 Yeah, it's horrifying.

01:43:19.000 Wow.

01:43:20.000 What's that, what's that, uh, what's that account?

01:43:21.000 Nature is brutal.

01:43:23.000 Somebody, somebody mentioned in the chat that I'm building a Zeppelin.

01:43:26.000 Uh, that's, that is true and correct.

01:43:28.000 The, the, so, uh, if you don't know the story for like years, Wikipedia had a section where it claimed I invented a Zeppelin for live streaming, which I never did.

01:43:35.000 And so it finally got removed because they were like, what's the source for this?

01:43:39.000 It's like one article from the Guardian.

01:43:40.000 So then I was like, just to make a point, I'm now going to actually do it!

01:43:44.000 Yes.

01:43:44.000 And invent it so they have to put it back.

01:43:46.000 I'm going to retroactively make a fake article true.

01:43:49.000 And then they can like put it back.

01:43:50.000 Living up to the hype.

01:43:52.000 What will they do?

01:43:53.000 They're like, this article was fake when it was written, but then he eventually did do this.

01:43:57.000 So do we use this article?

01:43:59.000 You will create like a, like a disclaimer paradox where the disclaimer for the original article that they will have run, they'll need to also disclaim, but in the context of a large, like it'll just be an entire writing story.

01:44:16.000 But actually now it's true because he decided to one-up us.

01:44:20.000 So this is like what the Beatles used to do with the Paul is Dead stuff.

01:44:23.000 Do you guys know about that?

01:44:24.000 Oh yeah.

01:44:24.000 So it started as just sort of this thing that a bunch of hippie kids at some US college had gotten into.

01:44:32.000 They thought they were secret messages in the Beatles songs.

01:44:34.000 Yeah, if you play it backwards it says Paul is a dead man, I miss him.

01:44:38.000 But then the Beatles found out about it and they were like, Oh, this is the coolest thing.

01:44:42.000 So they actually started planting secret messages in their songs.

01:44:48.000 And, you know, if you play something backwards and John Lennon was super big into this, that, and it was sort of like, you know, it's, is it art imitating reality kind of thing?

01:44:57.000 And it just became this whole, you know, big deal where all of these secret messages we could put in.

01:45:02.000 But I always, I always thought it was, that's actually the story that got me into the Beatles that like, Wow, these guys thought it was so cool that they actually took it to the next level and started doing it because, hey, that's fun.

01:45:10.000 Yeah.

01:45:11.000 Alright, we got QuietGuitaristFan says, World Economic Forum.

01:45:15.000 You will own nothing and you will be happy.

01:45:17.000 Neo, I need guns.

01:45:18.000 Lots of guns.

01:45:20.000 Guns are good investments. 0.99

01:45:21.000 Yeah, it's true.

01:45:21.000 And you're blocked by them?

01:45:23.000 They're calling you up by name?

01:45:24.000 They don't lose their value.

01:45:25.000 Yes, they appreciate it.

01:45:26.000 The World Economic Forum not only has me blocked on Twitter, but they called me out by name

01:45:31.000 the other day over some...

01:45:33.000 And you're blocked by them?

01:45:35.000 And I'm blocked, but they're calling me out as this known purveyor of whatever.

01:45:42.000 Yeah, of whatever.

01:45:43.000 It had to do with the macron emails from 2017, which were completely true, by the way.

01:45:48.000 That was an actual, legit leak that we found.

01:45:51.000 But they just labeled disinformation.

01:45:52.000 But isn't that hilarious how you'll find people's actual emails and they'll be like, that's not true.

01:45:58.000 Yeah, dude, I'm browsing Reddit.

01:45:58.000 That's disinformation.

01:46:01.000 If you look at the front page of all, the leftists, how they talk about Fauci's emails, They have no idea what they're talking about.

01:46:08.000 Yeah.

01:46:09.000 They've literally not read any of them, don't understand the context.

01:46:11.000 And they're like, there was like one email where he said not to wear masks.

01:46:15.000 It was exactly in line with what he was saying publicly.

01:46:17.000 And I'm like, well, that's true.

01:46:19.000 But the real issue is that there were scientists saying early on that thought it was engineered.

01:46:23.000 Fauci ended up giving these guys grants at some point.

01:46:25.000 What the guy was saying publicly literally the same day was the exact opposite of what he was telling Fauci.

01:46:30.000 There's a lot of stuff in there.

01:46:31.000 So that's a type of, I mean, it's a cope, right?

01:46:34.000 But, you know, the type of logical fallacy that it's a false because, right?

01:46:38.000 So I've created, instead of having to actually think through, like me possibly being wrong on something, I can just allow the cognitive dissonance to take over and the false because will be a shortcut across that to say, well, okay, there was this one, but it wasn't a big deal.

01:46:54.000 Here's why it wasn't a big deal.

01:46:55.000 And therefore, you know, therefore, because of that, All of it is not a big deal.

01:47:02.000 Well, that's a false because, because that only pertains to one.

01:47:03.000 Exactly.

01:47:04.000 All right.

01:47:04.000 Stoli Clark says, Tim, I'm challenging you and Ian to a game of Two-Headed Giant Commander.

01:47:11.000 Also, everyone, regardless of your opinion, you need to prepare for some crazy times.

01:47:16.000 And why don't you people ever talk about XRP?

01:47:18.000 I don't know a whole lot about XRP, but what I can say is anyone who plays me and Ian in a game of Two-Headed Giant Commander would regret it.

01:47:26.000 Yeah, you'd get messed up.

01:47:27.000 You'd get messed up bad.

01:47:28.000 I think Jack and I could beat you.

01:47:28.000 I don't know about that.

01:47:30.000 The level of the decks that Ian and I have are so high, we don't like playing each other anymore.

01:47:36.000 It's like turn one wins.

01:47:37.000 It's just insane.

01:47:39.000 He got the Mana Crypt, he wins.

01:47:40.000 Let's just play a new game.

01:47:42.000 Who goes first?

01:47:43.000 You win.

01:47:45.000 I've got a Kiki-Jiki deck.

01:47:46.000 It's just absolutely bonkers. 0.95

01:47:48.000 I've got... Narset's crazy, but that's more about just locking the board down and being silly. 0.99

01:47:52.000 But Urza's just nuts. 0.67

01:47:53.000 Yeah, I think if we did Urza and maybe Thassa...

01:47:57.000 That's just- Thassa, dude.

01:47:59.000 Stop town.

01:47:59.000 Rashad and Footpad with Thassa and it's like, I win.

01:48:01.000 Everyone sacrifice all your permanents, I win.

01:48:03.000 I'll counter everything they try to do to stop you from winning.

01:48:06.000 Well, if you have Urza and you have all of your board on the table, then maybe the Footpad won't get to you.

01:48:10.000 Dude, two out of giants is the best.

01:48:12.000 Ah, we wipe the floor with whoever dared challenge us.

01:48:14.000 That's it.

01:48:15.000 No, I think we would win.

01:48:16.000 Me and Jack against you two.

01:48:17.000 We're doing it.

01:48:17.000 I actually don't know anything about this game.

01:48:19.000 I'm just talking smack.

01:48:19.000 I don't know either.

01:48:20.000 lawn or elf and then hands like I'll drop my whole board with 0.70

01:48:24.000 Urza and I win the game.

01:48:25.000 I actually don't know anything about this. I'm just talking smack because I don't know either. But any opportunity to

01:48:30.000 argue best, I'll take it.

01:48:31.000 One of the best card games ever made. I'm like, how does this

01:48:34.000 pertain to the rosary?

01:48:36.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:48:38.000 I'm like, I actually won't play this game.

01:48:39.000 June is the month of the sacred heart of Jesus.

01:48:41.000 That's right.

01:48:41.000 It is.

01:48:42.000 No, it actually is.

01:48:43.000 I love this conspiracy theory.

01:48:45.000 The Physicality Channel says, do we have any proof this is actually live?

01:48:51.000 Yes.

01:48:51.000 Well, they just asked that question and you read it out loud.

01:48:53.000 I assume they asked it recently.

01:48:54.000 Yeah, wouldn't that be proof?

01:48:55.000 I would think so, yeah.

01:48:56.000 Define proof.

01:48:57.000 Can I say what it is?

01:48:58.000 Isn't the super chat itself proof it's live?

01:49:00.000 I guess they think we get super chats sent to us in advance.

01:49:03.000 We read people's minds, yeah.

01:49:04.000 Well, now it's proven for them, but I guess for everybody else.

01:49:07.000 Yeah, I don't know, it's 9.48pm.

01:49:10.000 Yeah, I checked the time.

01:49:12.000 And they're like, you timed that perfectly so that when it went off you knew.

01:49:16.000 Keep sending super chats and you'll find out.

01:49:18.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:49:19.000 I'm gonna design a clock that it'll be like your standard, you know, what's a clock called that's just like a standard clock?

01:49:19.000 You know what I'm gonna do?

01:49:26.000 Because there's like a digital numeric clock.

01:49:28.000 Analog clock.

01:49:30.000 But I want to have it so that like every five minutes the arms randomly pull to a different position.

01:49:35.000 Dude, what if there was a clock that no matter when you looked at it, it always showed you what time it was now.

01:49:41.000 So like if the clock was on video and recorded, you'd look at it now and it would show now's time even though, I don't know, it'd be some new technology.

01:49:49.000 Ian, what are you talking about?

01:49:52.000 Permaclocks are like everclocks.

01:49:54.000 Get that orb away from me! 0.95

01:49:58.000 That would be a multidimensional clock because if Seamus is watching and someone else is watching it'd be a different... That's a quantum clock.

01:50:05.000 That's a quantum clock.

01:50:09.000 Ian, can you build us a clock where instead of actually telling time every five minutes the arms randomly jump to a different position?

01:50:09.000 Who can build this?

01:50:16.000 So then like during the show the arms will just be like randomly like people are like what's going on?

01:50:21.000 You already said it on air that'd be so fantastic Just like the audience is like what is going on?

01:50:26.000 Yeah, this is not live.

01:50:27.000 How could it be the clock is?

01:50:30.000 Well, we'll start thinking about things like that.

01:50:32.000 Maybe we can do like well.

01:50:33.000 I shouldn't say any more ideas Fantastic ideas that like if you ever say them on air you'll ruin them like we should miss his clothes.

01:50:40.000 Just know she should Let's read some more Unholy Prophet says I'm 30 and I own my own house and my mom lives next door.

01:50:49.000 It's like the show everyone loves Raymond.

01:50:52.000 There you go, and I bet she comes over when she wants to borrow a cup of sugar. 1.00

01:50:57.000 And she calls you Unholy Prophet.

01:50:58.000 Unholy!

01:50:59.000 You come over here and bring me a cup of sugar! 1.00

01:51:01.000 I gotta say, my mom just got a place that's right down the street from us and with the kids, it's great.

01:51:08.000 I mean, that is sort of the traditional, you know, set up, right?

01:51:14.000 So that it's multi-generational, families live close, right?

01:51:19.000 You're not just shipping, you know, outsourcing your child care to some stranger or, you know, somebody you found on care.com.

01:51:26.000 It's grandparents.

01:51:28.000 It's amazing.

01:51:29.000 They love the kids.

01:51:30.000 They know the kids.

01:51:31.000 It's theirs, right? 0.92

01:51:32.000 And I love it.

01:51:33.000 All right, we got Nova Zero says, Antifa are pests, not bugs. 0.68

01:51:38.000 Don't eat Antifa, no protein whatsoever.

01:51:41.000 Use pesticides like tear gas.

01:51:42.000 Enjoy.

01:51:43.000 Also, have you seen how big Australian bush roaches are?

01:51:45.000 I have not.

01:51:46.000 I'm sure they're huge.

01:51:47.000 You actually have to hunt them with an AR, sorry.

01:51:49.000 Antiva remind me of cicadas in many, many ways.

01:51:53.000 The screams, right?

01:51:54.000 So the screams is a big part of it.

01:51:56.000 A chicken could defeat them.

01:51:58.000 The swarms, right?

01:51:59.000 The swarms that are absolutely, they are an invasive species.

01:52:04.000 They think gender is a social construct.

01:52:05.000 You ever get alone with a cicada, dude?

01:52:07.000 Their political opinions are all out of whack.

01:52:09.000 They will not stop talking about that.

01:52:12.000 They just re all the time.

01:52:13.000 And for some reason they can just automatically generate Molotov cocktails.

01:52:16.000 Yeah.

01:52:17.000 All right.

01:52:18.000 We got Rob Lurssen says breaking JBS paid 11 million dollars in Bitcoin ransom to cyber criminals who last week knocked out plants that process one fifth of the nation's meat supply.

01:52:27.000 Wall Street Journal.

01:52:28.000 Wow.

01:52:29.000 Oh, that's only going to get worse.

01:52:31.000 The thing that killed me with the Colonial Pipeline was when the CEO was testifying yesterday and said and admitted that said, well, they asked him, said Senator Hawley.

01:52:40.000 I think it was Senator Hawley actually asked him.

01:52:42.000 Why didn't you just go in manually and turn on the pipeline?

01:52:44.000 You guys see this one?

01:52:45.000 And he responded that, well, essentially all the workers that know how to operate the pipeline manually are either retired or deceased at this point.

01:52:53.000 Oh my gosh.

01:52:53.000 Yeah, it's depressing.

01:52:55.000 We actually didn't have the capability of operating it manually anymore.

01:52:58.000 That's insane.

01:52:59.000 Yeah, that's not good.

01:53:01.000 Yeah, I would agree with you on that.

01:53:01.000 I would say so.

01:53:03.000 Yeah.

01:53:04.000 All right, we got Chris Bali says, Tim, I keep hearing you refer to NC as an East Coast state.

01:53:08.000 Well, it is on the East Coast.

01:53:09.000 It is a Southern state that is very conservative.

01:53:11.000 Most people here have rejected COVID measures, FYI.

01:53:14.000 I just referred to it as an East Coast state because it's very easy to get to North Carolina from North Carolina to New York.

01:53:20.000 So if New York implements all these restrictions, there's probably a lot of people in North Carolina who are like driving up to New York or even driving through New York.

01:53:27.000 Maybe you aren't going on a vacation or something.

01:53:29.000 It's not like you're in Los Angeles and it's like a six-hour flight.

01:53:31.000 There is kind of this, like, regionalization of the term East Coast.

01:53:36.000 Like, you wouldn't consider Florida an East Coast state.

01:53:38.000 Even though it is.

01:53:38.000 How dare you?

01:53:39.000 I live in Georgia, and I consider myself a coastal elite.

01:53:42.000 No, it is, but people wouldn't say that, right?

01:53:43.000 When they say East Coast, they kind of mean, like, Mid-Atlantic Northeast.

01:53:47.000 Yeah, I get it.

01:53:48.000 I'm just making a geographical reference, because like... Yeah.

01:53:51.000 Admittedly, what is it, like 16 hours New York to Florida or something?

01:53:54.000 Or is it 24?

01:53:55.000 It's not that bad.

01:53:56.000 No, it's not 24.

01:53:57.000 No, it's like 16, right?

01:53:58.000 Maybe 18.

01:53:58.000 Yeah.

01:53:59.000 Yeah, I've done Florida to... DC to Florida, yeah.

01:54:02.000 Yeah.

01:54:04.000 All right, let's see.

01:54:06.000 B13SR, what is it?

01:54:08.000 Beezer?

01:54:09.000 I grew up on Rage Against the Machine, and today's kids, my nephews, call me a conservative.

01:54:13.000 Yeah, well, to be fair, Rage Against the Machine today is Rage on behalf of the machine.

01:54:17.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:54:18.000 Man, isn't that funny?

01:54:19.000 The reason I brought up the Offspring earlier about Hit That is because I was listening to one of their latest songs, and it's not overt, but it really does sound like they're pro-establishment these days.

01:54:28.000 Maybe they always were.

01:54:29.000 I mean, it's 2003, right?

01:54:31.000 Or no, no, what year was Why Don't You?

01:54:32.000 Yeah, yeah, Hit That was 2003.

01:54:33.000 Well, how are we defining the machine?

01:54:37.000 The political establishment, what it's always been.

01:54:39.000 Yeah, Trump just kicked the door down.

01:54:40.000 So that's who they claim to be raging against?

01:54:43.000 Oh yeah, but they're... Rage against the machine, that's what I'm saying.

01:54:45.000 Rage in the pocket of the machine.

01:54:46.000 Didn't they have a video that was, like, directed by Michael Moore at one point with Rage, and they're on Wall Street, and they're, like, protesting.

01:54:53.000 They protested in front of the DNC at one point, they went down in Cuba.

01:54:58.000 I mean, these guys were pretty, pretty, you know, populist uprising against, quote unquote, the establishment.

01:55:05.000 We got Logan Culver says, clearly the culture shift happened when they fired up the Large Hadron Collider in 2008 and ripped a hole in our time continuum.

01:55:12.000 Yes.

01:55:13.000 Well, you guys should watch Loki because that's what it's all about.

01:55:16.000 You know what, you guys?

01:55:17.000 We're up to 9.3k likes.

01:55:19.000 Not against that.

01:55:20.000 And that's great, but we agreed to 20,000.

01:55:21.000 Oh, we did.

01:55:23.000 That's what I remember.

01:55:24.000 I said initially.

01:55:25.000 I just think they remember you saying that.

01:55:28.000 I said 20,000.

01:55:28.000 I love you guys.

01:55:29.000 Let's get us there.

01:55:30.000 Come on.

01:55:33.000 Do both.

01:55:34.000 You can do both.

01:55:35.000 He's looking at Tim like, how long will he allow me to do this? 0.99

01:55:39.000 Like they say, politics is religion for ugly people.

01:55:46.000 Biosurveillance like vaccine passports forces the individual to buy technology.

01:55:50.000 What better for disease capitalists than data mining you to train robots? 0.95

01:55:54.000 Half the cost of immigrants, the pitch is VR. 1.00

01:56:01.000 Daniel Welch says, is the difference in states you described like Brave New World sterile and dehumanized world state versus degenerate savage lands?

01:56:09.000 I don't know.

01:56:10.000 Yeah, I think there's an extent where Brave New World actually came a little bit closer than Orwell.

01:56:15.000 And I know that's sort of not the, you know, not the quote unquote, you know, prevailing wisdom.

01:56:21.000 But when you look at what Huxley proposed, it was this world.

01:56:26.000 Not only was it advanced in terms of technology, but it was Instant gratification of anything you wanted.

01:56:35.000 It was, you know, free love, free sex.

01:56:39.000 This totally predates the counterculture.

01:56:43.000 It's the 1920s, I believe.

01:56:45.000 1925, he wrote that.

01:56:46.000 And so, you know, he got a lot closer.

01:56:49.000 And then so they fly over, you know, quote unquote, the flyover states.

01:56:52.000 But then you can go and they have these little platforms where you can land on and sort of look down to people living in like what we consider the Midwest now.

01:56:59.000 And that's like a vacation to see how the How these savages, they call them, the savages live.

01:57:04.000 Yeah, no, I mean, I completely agree with you, and it's interesting, it actually gets more into the sexual politics, which is a huge part of why everything's falling apart here.

01:57:11.000 Oh, yeah, I mean, that's, like, half the book.

01:57:13.000 Alright, The One Free Man says, Would you die, not for America as we know it, but for the America you know it could be?

01:57:22.000 So, for the Papal States of America?

01:57:26.000 Because it could be that, and I would die for that.

01:57:30.000 I've seen so many people die feudally that I'm not really looking to throw myself away.

01:57:35.000 Yeah, I guess that's a complicated question.

01:57:36.000 I mean, look, that's clearly a risk that my grandfather was willing to take.

01:57:39.000 I think if we fought in the Second World War, I think there's something noble about that.

01:57:42.000 I'm not a big fan of the industrial-military complex or our current foreign policy, but...

01:57:48.000 If there was a good reason to go to war, I mean, I'm not gonna sit here and say I'm so brave and macho I would absolutely go do it, but I definitely believe there are reasons which warrant fighting for sure.

01:57:57.000 I mean, you know, as Patton once said, you know, the object of warfare is not to die for your country but have the enemy die for his.

01:58:03.000 That being said, you know, I know that I'm not someone who currently, and I said this before, I argued that I don't think that we are on a collision course with China, But that being said, should the CCP try, trust me, I've been focused on these guys solely for about 15 years right now.

01:58:20.000 I would know how to tear them apart within less than 18 months.

01:58:23.000 Don't say that on air.

01:58:24.000 Disney will never hire you now.

01:58:25.000 No.

01:58:27.000 Hedge Trimmer says, the mother of all short sales is upon us.

01:58:30.000 The Eight Army owns the float by 93%.

01:58:31.000 Is that for GameStop?

01:58:34.000 That can be big.

01:58:34.000 We'll see what happens.

01:58:35.000 I also did a cartoon about GameStop.

01:58:38.000 What's up?

01:58:38.000 Isn't Apes AMC?

01:58:40.000 Uh, I don't know.

01:58:41.000 It's just meme, I thought.

01:58:43.000 Yeah, meme cryptos.

01:58:43.000 Meme cryptos.

01:58:44.000 Or meme stonks.

01:58:46.000 So would that be all meme stonks?

01:58:48.000 So if you guys like meme stonks, I did a video called Game Stonks that you guys should also check out at Freedom Tunes.

01:58:54.000 It was alright.

01:58:54.000 Really enjoy it, yeah.

01:58:56.000 Alright!

01:58:58.000 Clef the Misfit says, Tim, I'm going to keep posting this till you read it.

01:59:01.000 Please make a gorilla t-shirt in your honor with a beanie and lettuce hands. 0.82

01:59:05.000 I bought AMC.

01:59:06.000 Yeah, I bought back.

01:59:07.000 You're back in.

01:59:08.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:59:09.000 Back on the train.

01:59:09.000 For a while now.

01:59:10.000 All right.

01:59:11.000 I woke up and I was like, I don't even have anything to invest in.

01:59:13.000 I was like, I don't know, AMC, I guess.

01:59:15.000 Yeah, there are people that are moving on.

01:59:15.000 Whatever.

01:59:17.000 If you click on Wall Street Pets, AMC isn't even like the hot thing right now anymore.

01:59:21.000 The people have kind of moved on from it.

01:59:22.000 This is a hive, you know, it's a bee's nest.

01:59:25.000 But I haven't, by the way.

01:59:27.000 I have not.

01:59:27.000 This is a hive.

01:59:29.000 And what they've realized is that when there's high short interest in a stock, it's guaranteed to go up.

01:59:33.000 Right.

01:59:33.000 Just hedge funds are like, we're going to tank this stock or I'll make money.

01:59:37.000 They announce it, then everybody follows suit and they do the opposite and they're guaranteed to sell the stock at a higher price.

01:59:41.000 It's a win.

01:59:42.000 It's just absolutely win.

01:59:43.000 So now the whole game is going to shift based on this new meta.

01:59:47.000 The firms are gonna stop doing that. They should have kept it low-key

01:59:49.000 So they can keep taking advantage of these firms when they try to do it now that the word is out

01:59:53.000 They're just gonna know it's too big of a risk to short.

01:59:55.000 Yep Let's see

01:59:58.000 Javon Cronin says I love how Ian randomly gets mad in the middle of a sentence and chills out by the end

02:00:03.000 Always catches me off guard.

02:00:05.000 Dude, I am fire.

02:00:07.000 Electric light.

02:00:08.000 That's true.

02:00:09.000 I didn't even think of that.

02:00:09.000 That's so true.

02:00:10.000 Okay, um, Rath4 says, More people died in 2020 alone from shoving foreign objects in their bums than people died from AR-15s the past five years combined.

02:00:20.000 Well, we should we should absolutely ban those things.

02:00:23.000 Are we are we debunking or has that been bunked?

02:00:27.000 It is being bunked now.

02:00:28.000 We can choose to accept the bunk, debunk.

02:00:32.000 And then if we do debunk, then the other party has a chance to rebunk.

02:00:35.000 Okay.

02:00:36.000 Yeah, we should ban all those things.

02:00:40.000 All right, let's see.

02:00:41.000 Let's let's do a couple more here. 0.99

02:00:47.000 Ward Spo says, no drinks in the damn table ever. 0.98

02:00:50.000 Few hundred to thousands in cards. 0.99

02:00:52.000 I have stacks of irreplaceable cards.

02:00:53.000 I get it.

02:00:55.000 Oh yeah, we have like, uh, I've got an Alpha Bolt.

02:00:57.000 I like that card.

02:00:58.000 What is that worth?

02:00:58.000 Like a thousand bucks these days?

02:00:59.000 Oh man.

02:01:00.000 I don't know.

02:01:01.000 Maybe not that much.

02:01:01.000 Maybe not.

02:01:02.000 But it was like, it was like a, like 70 bucks when I bought it, I think.

02:01:05.000 I'm gonna look it up.

02:01:05.000 A while ago.

02:01:06.000 Just imagine if somebody just like knocks over their coffee or something.

02:01:09.000 Well, it's sealed in a special thing.

02:01:11.000 Is that sealed in a card?

02:01:11.000 Yeah, but I do have some cards that are worth, like... A lot!

02:01:15.000 Like, one of my deck has some, like... I probably shouldn't say too much about the power of this deck, but it's got some really, really old, expensive cards in it.

02:01:22.000 Let's just say he had some collateral for that AMC stock he bought.

02:01:27.000 I went and I was like, I'm going to leverage my Magic the Gathering deck, and they were like, whoa, whoa, whoa.

02:01:31.000 He went down to the bank.

02:01:31.000 They're like, we don't have a vault big enough, safe enough to store that.

02:01:35.000 Looks like the Alpha Lightning Bolt's about 500 bucks now.

02:01:37.000 Oh, OK, 500 bucks.

02:01:38.000 There you go.

02:01:39.000 Wow.

02:01:41.000 So apparently, uh, the Magic the Gathering cards track higher, have a higher rate of return, a percentage of return than like the S&P 500.

02:01:49.000 It's raining.

02:01:51.000 Yeah, I heard that.

02:01:52.000 I was like, whoa, is it raining?

02:01:53.000 Yeah, it's like in waves.

02:01:55.000 And guess who gets to drive home three thousand.

02:01:57.000 Hey, if the power goes out, it was nice doing the show with you guys.

02:02:00.000 Yeah, we made it.

02:02:00.000 Yeah.

02:02:01.000 So let's just, uh, we'll do a couple more so we can get to that bonus segment.

02:02:04.000 Ian, use your abilities to keep us online.

02:02:06.000 Positive energy displacing the cloud.

02:02:06.000 You got it.

02:02:08.000 We do have the reserve batteries.

02:02:09.000 Goblin Hands says, Tim, as a truck driver, the truck driver shortage is a myth.

02:02:14.000 They are pushing the autonomous trucks in.

02:02:16.000 Also, the Chinese own the biggest pork company in the US, Smithfield.

02:02:19.000 If they decide, they can shut us down easily.

02:02:21.000 Yeah.

02:02:22.000 Wow.

02:02:24.000 Jamie Cagney says, how's your internet today?

02:02:26.000 I have a Starlink set up to sell you if you want.

02:02:28.000 Check out the jobs email.

02:02:30.000 Can you write that down?

02:02:32.000 Yes, 100%.

02:02:34.000 Can you do that?

02:02:35.000 Because we would absolutely love to get Starlink.

02:02:38.000 We're on the waiting list.

02:02:39.000 So they announced it's in our area.

02:02:40.000 We paid for it.

02:02:41.000 They said now you just have to wait, first come, first serve.

02:02:44.000 So it's like, yo, Elon!

02:02:45.000 Does anybody who's watching know Elon?

02:02:47.000 Be like, yo, hey, Elon, can you send this guy, he's like, doing a show, he needs Starlink.

02:02:50.000 In the middle of nowhere.

02:02:51.000 I also wonder, can you move the Starlink around?

02:02:53.000 Because if they just give it to you, can't you just, like, take it and put it somewhere else?

02:02:56.000 Use it somewhere else?

02:02:57.000 Alright, alright, alright.
