Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Democrat RAIDED By FBI, Implicated In Tucker Carlson LEAKS w-ALX

00:00:00.000 We got a crazy report coming out of Florida.

00:00:17.000 Apparently a media consultant and a Democrat have been raided by the FBI in connection with leaked videos from Tucker Carlson.

00:00:26.000 Apparently it went to Vice News and Media Matters.

00:00:28.000 So we'll break this story down and see what we got going on here.

00:00:32.000 But I just think it's surprising that the FBI went after a Democrat.

00:00:36.000 I just couldn't believe it.

00:00:38.000 So maybe this was more embarrassing to them or something.

00:00:40.000 I don't know.

00:00:41.000 But we do got a bunch of other news.

00:00:43.000 Okay, Bud Light has teamed up with Harley Davidson.

00:00:46.000 I know, it's bad news.

00:00:47.000 Or, I'm sorry, Budweiser did.

00:00:49.000 And then Bud Light is sponsoring a Pride event.

00:00:51.000 So, they're just doubling down.

00:00:53.000 And, uh, yeah, it's Friday Night, man.

00:00:55.000 We're chillin'.

00:00:55.000 We got some leaked audio from a DeSantis fundraiser.

00:00:58.000 I think that's where it's from.

00:00:59.000 Was it a fundraiser or something like that?

00:01:00.000 I don't know.

00:01:01.000 We'll talk about that.

00:01:01.000 It's really interesting.

00:01:02.000 They basically say that once they get into the middle of campaign season, DeSantis is

00:01:06.000 going to go full moderate.

00:01:08.000 And safe, legal, and rare on abortion, which I found very, very interesting.

00:02:21.000 I'm Taylor Silverman.

00:02:22.000 I work here at Tim Cass on the show Cass Castle, and I also do a bit of traveling around and talking about males invading women's sports because this is something I experienced in women's skateboarding.

00:02:34.000 And I don't want other girls to have to go through it.

00:02:36.000 And they are!

00:02:37.000 A lot!

00:02:38.000 A lot of stories that people don't know about.

00:02:39.000 There's a few that everyone knows and countless ones in so many different sports that you wouldn't even expect.

00:02:45.000 But I'm trying to raise awareness about that and use my voice so we can bring back fairness and equal opportunity and safety for girls.

00:02:54.000 Hello everyone!

00:02:55.000 I am Phil Labonte from the heavy metal band All That Remains.

00:02:59.000 I am an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.

00:03:02.000 And we are here with...

00:03:04.000 It's Kellan.

00:03:05.000 Back this Friday.

00:03:06.000 Fridays are the best days.

00:03:07.000 Good to see you again, Alex.

00:03:09.000 Yeah, let's get rolling.

00:03:10.000 All right, we got this story from the Western Journal.

00:03:12.000 Democrat lawmakers' house raided by FBI in connection to Tucker Carlson leaks.

00:03:18.000 It's crazy.

00:03:19.000 The FBI searched a Florida Democrat elected official's home.

00:03:22.000 is connected to leaked materials from Fox News.

00:03:25.000 They say the federal agency conducted a raid in search of a Tampa home this month, the Tampa Bay Times reported.

00:03:30.000 The home is that of Tampa City Council member Lynn Hertok and her husband, media consultant Tim Burke.

00:03:38.000 Carlson has been targeted in a series of selective leaks following his firing from Fox News last month, with leftist organization Media Matters publishing off-air content in which he made off-color remarks.

00:03:48.000 We have this from Daily Mail elaborating to say, FBI probes hack of Fox News computers, which saw unaired footage from Tucker Carlson's interview with Kanye West leaked to Vice.

00:03:59.000 Florida media consultant's home is searched as part of the investigation.

00:04:02.000 So they say, in a May 25th letter obtained by Daily Mail, a federal prosecutor in Tampa, Florida alerted Fox News to the criminal probe into stolen material, including unaired video of Tucker Carlson, who was fired in April.

00:04:14.000 Actually, I don't think Tucker was fired yet.

00:04:16.000 I don't know.

00:04:16.000 He wasn't fired, right?

00:04:17.000 They just turned his show off.

00:04:18.000 Yeah.

00:04:18.000 He's still actually an employee.

00:04:19.000 Yeah.

00:04:20.000 And that's how they're keeping him kind of, you know, from doing other official shows is by keeping him on contract.

00:04:26.000 So here's the crazy thing about this story.

00:04:28.000 The FBI raided a Democrat?

00:04:31.000 Why would they do that?

00:04:34.000 I mean, I question the motives of the Democrat leaking this, because all of these leaks made him look better and more relatable.

00:04:43.000 Well, no, not these leaks.

00:04:44.000 A lot of people... Oh, it was the Kanye ones?

00:04:46.000 Right.

00:04:47.000 So there's two things to say.

00:04:48.000 The leaks where Tucker's saying things, you know, while they were prepping the show or whatever, some of them we laugh at and like that's silly and makes no... doesn't mean anything.

00:04:57.000 Some of them, it will just be negative press.

00:05:00.000 The Democrats are going to rally around.

00:05:01.000 But the Kanye West leaks showed that they did edit out certain comments that perhaps they thought would be offensive.

00:05:08.000 So either way, I don't know.

00:05:10.000 The Media Matters ones were all hilarious.

00:05:13.000 Yeah, and I think one of them was fake.

00:05:16.000 I think the one where he said, FU Media Matters, looks like a deepfake.

00:05:19.000 Unfortunately, but... Nowadays you never know.

00:05:23.000 Like, the deepfakes are getting too good.

00:05:25.000 We're not gonna know anything.

00:05:27.000 We're just going blind into the future and...

00:05:30.000 Yeah, I mean, in the next year, the upcoming year is going to be very strenuous on people, I think, because people aren't going to know what to believe.

00:05:41.000 It's going to, obviously, you know, when you hear Joe Biden and Donald Trump, You know, smack talking each other over video games, you know, that's, you know, made up.

00:05:51.000 But if it's a legitimate, you know, speech that is, you know, similar to something that any of the candidates would say, I can't imagine.

00:06:03.000 This time next year, that the technology won't beat every single human being.

00:06:08.000 There might be AI that can pick them out, but I feel like most human beings are gonna be like, I couldn't tell the difference.

00:06:15.000 That's only in a year, because think about what AI was like a year ago.

00:06:20.000 Was there even Excuse me.

00:06:22.000 I don't even think that that we had like a lot of AI stuff that was getting out when it comes to like the images and chat.

00:06:29.000 The problem is it's training itself.

00:06:31.000 So the more and the more it progresses, the more real it's going to get.

00:06:34.000 And the issue is going to be the audio leaks.

00:06:37.000 Obviously, like the video ones are kind of easy to tell.

00:06:40.000 But like, say if there's leaked audio and they claim it's leaked audio from like a fundraising event, like, you know, the DeSantis thing, someone could claim that it was leaked audio.

00:06:48.000 And then, you know, a year from now, you might not know if it's actually real.

00:06:52.000 Yeah.

00:06:53.000 So, uh, this was last year.

00:06:54.000 I used, I think it was, um, I don't even remember the name of the AI.

00:06:59.000 I made AI-generated images of Trump, Biden, and Pelosi, and they were grotesque-looking and very fake.

00:07:05.000 And, uh, posted them to Twitter.

00:07:07.000 So they're on my Twitter somewhere.

00:07:09.000 Today, when you go to Midjourney and type in Trump, it's real.

00:07:14.000 There's no way to tell, it's crazy.

00:07:17.000 I mean, they've tried, they're probably, as you were mentioning, some software probably could track it down.

00:07:23.000 I want to read this though in the story, this is interesting.

00:07:25.000 They mentioned that this guy, Burke, who was being raided, That he's worked for Deadspin and the Daily Beast.

00:07:31.000 And then there's something interesting I see in this story.

00:07:33.000 They say, in a legal letter published to Media Matters earlier this month, Fox asked the group not to stop publishing this footage.

00:07:40.000 The letter doesn't address how they got it, but it says the network did not consent to its distribution or publication, according to a copy of the letter obtained by Daily Mail.

00:07:48.000 This is copyright infringement.

00:07:50.000 That's the weirdest thing about this.

00:07:52.000 They're publishing these leaked videos of Tucker Carlson, but I'm just like, uh, if we record something in the studio, it's our copyrighted material for us to distribute and sell.

00:08:01.000 If someone steals that and then starts distributing it, they are stealing.

00:08:05.000 That's piracy.

00:08:06.000 How has Fox not gone after them and said, hey, they stole this from, this is our stuff.

00:08:10.000 And, you know, oh, we were going to put out the best of Tucker Carlson bloopers.

00:08:14.000 It's a blooper and they stole it from us.

00:08:16.000 I mean, come on, that's got to be, that's multimillion dollar lawsuit stuff.

00:08:20.000 Well, the FBI can't deny that that's a crime.

00:08:25.000 Well, I mean, they're raiding this guy.

00:08:26.000 Yeah, they're probably left with no option.

00:08:29.000 I mean, actually, yeah, they they went after people during the Napster days.

00:08:33.000 And people got they criminally charge anybody over that?

00:08:37.000 I don't recall, to be honest with you.

00:08:38.000 I know that people got sued very heavily.

00:08:40.000 But I'm wondering how does this not reach that level?

00:08:44.000 I mean, look, the FBI has raided him.

00:08:46.000 So it sounds like somebody was hacking something.

00:08:49.000 Either a hacking or maybe somebody who is inside the company was distributing it somehow.

00:08:53.000 That's what I was going to say, is if it was a hack where they gave them access type of thing.

00:08:58.000 Yeah.

00:08:59.000 I don't see anything about Napster criminal charges.

00:09:02.000 No criminal charges.

00:09:03.000 But there were criminal charges around a lot of piracy stuff, wasn't there?

00:09:06.000 Like a few stories?

00:09:08.000 I don't know.

00:09:08.000 I think there was Kim.com.

00:09:10.000 Yeah.

00:09:11.000 That was more than just a guy shared a file.

00:09:13.000 This is a guy running a website for file storage and they were like, yeah, we'll just go after him and raid his house.

00:09:16.000 Yeah, the FBI just decided they didn't like him.

00:09:19.000 I mean it was the FBI, it was the RIAA or something, MPAA, those uh, Hollywood.

00:09:23.000 Oh, okay.

00:09:24.000 Went after him.

00:09:25.000 Yeah, and then New Zealand Special Forces like storm his house.

00:09:29.000 It's the funniest thing because whenever this stuff happens, like with Roger Stone,

00:09:33.000 it's like, dude, you can knock on the door.

00:09:34.000 Like, what do you think's going on with these guys?

00:09:36.000 Yeah, you can definitely knock on the door, but that depends.

00:09:40.000 That's the discretion of the of the, you know, the particular law enforcement agency on the ground.

00:09:47.000 Usually they'll decide if the person is if they consider the person dangerous or not.

00:09:51.000 And then that decision is probably going to be colored.

00:09:54.000 Well, actually, Not probably.

00:09:56.000 That decision is definitely going to be colored by politics nowadays.

00:09:59.000 Yeah, I think it was kim.com who actually sued them and won money back from the government because they had helicopters and everything and it was just way overkill. 0.59

00:10:11.000 Yeah, and it's just like, there's nowhere to go.

00:10:13.000 He's got this compound in New Zealand, you just drive up and there's like one road.

00:10:16.000 And then you just walk in.

00:10:17.000 Yeah, it's the craziest thing.

00:10:19.000 I'm surprised they're actually going after a Democrat on this one though.

00:10:23.000 I don't even think the story's that big.

00:10:25.000 Like, of all the things they could go after, they go after this?

00:10:27.000 I mean, this could be a... I'm such a conspiracy theorist now that I'm just like, well, it could be a cover for something else.

00:10:33.000 They're like, well, pick him up for something, you know, just get him off the street.

00:10:36.000 They could be mad at him about whatever, about something I, you know... I have so little faith in the validity of anything the government says nowadays.

00:10:45.000 Yeah.

00:10:46.000 Which is annoying, but...

00:10:51.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:10:53.000 I'm reading these and it's just like, obviously the Kanye ones are bad, but again, I question why they would leak the funny ones.

00:11:03.000 Then what's the motivation for the FBI to bother with something like this?

00:11:07.000 Well, there's always they could have got a tip and they had to follow up on it.

00:11:11.000 That's not true.

00:11:13.000 They don't follow up on tips.

00:11:17.000 Come on.

00:11:17.000 Yeah.

00:11:18.000 Yeah.

00:11:18.000 I mean, if you're like a pro lifer and you decide it was high level, though, like if it was for Fox News and, you know, they could publish a story about it.

00:11:27.000 You know, I've had, what have we been, swatted 15 times last year?

00:11:32.000 Yeah, they don't rightly care at all about any of this.

00:11:38.000 And the feds are supposed to be involved with like swatting stuff, right?

00:11:40.000 Well, it was cross state lines.

00:11:42.000 Yeah.

00:11:43.000 So, yep.

00:11:44.000 Yeah, we had multiple departments.

00:11:46.000 We had like four law enforcement agencies.

00:11:48.000 I think the postal investigative service or whatever was involved because people were mailing stuff.

00:11:54.000 Oh my gosh.

00:11:55.000 Yeah, and they don't know anything.

00:11:56.000 So.

00:11:57.000 This is an R. Yeah.

00:11:59.000 Yup.

00:12:02.000 It's been a while since the last one, though.

00:12:03.000 Like, knock on wood.

00:12:05.000 Since the last one?

00:12:05.000 Oh my gosh.

00:12:06.000 I wonder why it stopped.

00:12:10.000 I feel like that is a tempting fate, Tim.

00:12:16.000 I know, I'm like, I wouldn't say that.

00:12:18.000 Well, like, we have security, and we work with local law enforcement, so it's just... Yeah.

00:12:24.000 At this point, they've got to know what to expect when they come here since it's happened so many times.

00:12:29.000 Well, they don't come here anymore.

00:12:30.000 Like, they don't come here like it's a raid.

00:12:33.000 You know, it's usually liaising with security and then sweeps and things like that.

00:12:39.000 But like the first time they came, they were like, we're coming in the house and you can't stop us, even though we told them not to do it.

00:12:43.000 And that was really annoying.

00:12:45.000 And then they made up some lie about exigent circumstances or something like that, which is just not true.

00:12:52.000 Yeah, the only thing that I can see, you know, the only thing I see in this Tucker Carlson story or the Raid story is they're just trying to get more information, I guess, trying to pick up stuff.

00:13:03.000 I don't think they even, they didn't arrest him, right?

00:13:05.000 And they just raided his house for information.

00:13:08.000 I mean, we don't rightly know exactly.

00:13:09.000 I don't know.

00:13:10.000 I guess that's it.

00:13:10.000 That's the story.

00:13:11.000 Okay.

00:13:12.000 That's so bizarre.

00:13:15.000 Right.

00:13:16.000 Well, let's talk about Budweiser from the Daily Mail.

00:13:19.000 Budweiser teams up with Harley Davidson for very manly new advert as owner of Anheuser-Busch tries to recover from Bud Light backlash over marketing campaign with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

00:13:31.000 Let's show you how manly you are.

00:13:33.000 Let's play the video.

00:13:34.000 You guys ready?

00:13:35.000 Yeah.

00:13:35.000 The greatest legacies are built with grit and resilience.

00:13:48.000 One detail at a time.

00:13:51.000 Limited edition Budweiser Harley-Davidson cans.

00:13:56.000 For those who give everything to their craft.

00:14:02.000 Why though?

00:14:04.000 Why?

00:14:05.000 I don't know about you guys, but I'm feeling manlier already.

00:14:07.000 Limited edition?

00:14:08.000 I'm sold.

00:14:09.000 It's almost like parody, like the way they're doing it, like the voice and everything.

00:14:13.000 I'm like, oh my gosh, who's honestly gonna buy this?

00:14:16.000 In an effort to please everyone, they've made everyone hate them.

00:14:19.000 But do you want to buy the can and then put the can on the wall or something?

00:14:24.000 It's so bizarre and it's it's funny too because it's like I wasn't really one for boycotts and I was kind of like a like a Budweiser guy when I drank beer and this is like the first boycott I've like kind of taken part of and like it's been successful and it really makes sense why it's successful is because you know those are the types of people that are you know drinking beer or whatever.

00:14:46.000 And, you know, when you see these other companies like Nike or whatever, they can afford to lose, you know, people who pay attention to politics.

00:14:55.000 Half the country, you know, doesn't really care.

00:14:58.000 And they're going to say, I like, you know, LeBron James or whatever, I'm going to buy his shoes.

00:15:03.000 But like Bud Light or Budweiser it's gotten like a lot of people's attention.

00:15:07.000 I saw like Clay Travis had like the cooler challenge type thing where he had a mixture of beer and then at the end of the night he opens it and it's like full of Bud Light because it was like those are the only beers that people didn't take.

00:15:20.000 So it's just become- So he bought Bud Light?

00:15:22.000 Yeah, right?

00:15:24.000 I guess.

00:15:25.000 I don't know the whole story of where the sourcing came from.

00:15:27.000 Well, it was free, though.

00:15:28.000 Yeah, he could have gotten it for free from Memorial Day.

00:15:30.000 Was he doing it, like, as a social experiment to see if people would take it?

00:15:34.000 I don't know if it started off that way, but... Or he just realized this?

00:15:36.000 He posted on Twitter, just like the cooler... I don't know if it was like a cookout or whatever he was at, but yeah, it was like the cooler before and then after, and it was like, only Bud Light left.

00:15:46.000 This is a desperate attempt because Memorial Day is here.

00:15:48.000 Yeah.

00:15:49.000 And so it's also been like a very slow day also, people can probably tell, because everybody's getting ready to just take off and go on their Memorial Day three-day holiday or whatever weekend.

00:15:58.000 But I kind of could sense something like this was going to come because Memorial Day is the danger zone for Bud Light.

00:16:04.000 People are going to be grilling, people are going to be hanging out, they're going to go to the lake, and this is when they're like, we need to move product.

00:16:11.000 Yeah.

00:16:11.000 And this was the best they could do.

00:16:13.000 So, I got bad news for you guys, though.

00:16:15.000 This doesn't make Budweiser manlier.

00:16:18.000 It makes Harley Davidson gayer.

00:16:24.000 And that's fine.

00:16:25.000 Like, look man, if you are a man who likes to have adult relations with other men and ride motorcycles... No, I mean it seriously.

00:16:31.000 I got no beef.

00:16:33.000 That's totally fine by me.

00:16:34.000 Live your life, you know?

00:16:36.000 Be happy.

00:16:37.000 But Budweiser's brand... I can't believe Harley-Davidson was like, let's get in on that.

00:16:43.000 Because people are making meme videos.

00:16:45.000 There's a video I saw where a dude goes to the store and he's, like, buying beer.

00:16:49.000 And then this other guy grabs a thing of Bud Light and he goes, you're buying Bud Light?

00:16:52.000 And the guy goes, well, look, man, I don't care about the politics.

00:16:55.000 I've always drank Bud Light.

00:16:57.000 He's like, oh, OK.

00:16:58.000 Then he grabs a case, looks over, and the guy bends down to tie his shoe, and then his pants reveals he's wearing a thong.

00:17:03.000 And the guy's like, OK.

00:17:04.000 And he puts the Bud Light back and then grabs something else.

00:17:07.000 So good.

00:17:07.000 But my point with mentioning that is that people are Bud Light is a meme now.

00:17:14.000 It is, it is like, you cannot save the brand.

00:17:18.000 All you can do is taint anything else.

00:17:20.000 Yeah, I think, I think you're totally right.

00:17:22.000 And I also think that there's, there is the, the sense from the average person that if they buy Bud Light, they're engaging in politics.

00:17:34.000 You know what I mean?

00:17:34.000 It's like they had, most people that want to, you know, just go to the bar and have a beer with their friends or go shoot pool or go to the game, whatever, they're actually trying to avoid politics.

00:17:47.000 And if they buy Bud Light, they're going to feel like they're engaging in it.

00:17:51.000 And that's something that is not easy to get rid of.

00:17:56.000 And it's definitely something that Bud Light doesn't, or that, you know, Bud doesn't want.

00:18:01.000 The Harley Davidson thing?

00:18:03.000 It's not gonna move the needle because people are still gonna feel like if I buy BUD and support, I'm engaging in politics.

00:18:10.000 If I don't buy it...

00:18:12.000 I'm not engaging because there's a bunch of other beers.

00:18:15.000 But if I buy Bud, then I'm saying I support this.

00:18:17.000 There's nothing they can do to salvage the brand.

00:18:21.000 Like, there's no ad campaign where we're gonna be like, oh now it's okay.

00:18:26.000 It's literally just them coming out and apologizing, but they definitely will not do that.

00:18:31.000 They're going to do something like this.

00:18:33.000 And Harley Davidson, I mean, I gotta ask, is it big?

00:18:38.000 Is Harley big?

00:18:38.000 I don't understand what the point of this is.

00:18:42.000 With bikers, yeah, still, I think so. 1.00

00:18:43.000 I mean, if you're into motorcycles, especially like the cruiser style, I think that Harley's probably still the name that people are kinda into.

00:18:52.000 Well, here's what you do.

00:18:53.000 When you see a dude in a Harley, you go, woo, pride, yeah!

00:18:57.000 And then you walk up to the guys on the bikes and just be like, I'm so happy that you guys can be together.

00:19:02.000 Do you think this is gonna taint?

00:19:03.000 South Park's already... Between this and South Park?

00:19:07.000 South Park did that episode!

00:19:12.000 Everybody, you know, everyone remembers that South Park episode.

00:19:15.000 South Park is the new Simpsons.

00:19:17.000 Close to it, but that's, I mean... Well, they're both pretty old.

00:19:19.000 Between the two of them.

00:19:21.000 Well, yeah, but I just meant, like, prediction-wise.

00:19:24.000 Oh yeah, and then South Park even had that episode.

00:19:26.000 Simpsons did it.

00:19:27.000 I'm just... I'm just... I...

00:19:32.000 Did marketing people at Harley-Davidson think at all?

00:19:36.000 Target's stock is free-falling.

00:19:40.000 I wonder if they did this deal in advance.

00:19:42.000 They had to print the cans.

00:19:43.000 I was going to say, it takes time to print cans.

00:19:46.000 It's been two months.

00:19:47.000 That could have been decided a year ago that we're going to do it this holiday weekend.

00:19:52.000 Could you imagine Harley-Davidson executives calling up Budweiser and going, no, no, no, no, we're done.

00:19:56.000 We don't want to do this.

00:19:56.000 And they're like, no, you can't get it.

00:19:58.000 No, you're here now.

00:20:00.000 We got you.

00:20:02.000 Oh my gosh.

00:20:04.000 Yeah.

00:20:05.000 Has there been an update on the VP or the marketing exec that was on leave?

00:20:11.000 There's two that they put on leave.

00:20:13.000 No updates though?

00:20:14.000 No.

00:20:14.000 I don't know.

00:20:17.000 Budweiser's down a bit.

00:20:18.000 Not as bad as Bud Light.

00:20:20.000 But a bunch of the brands are down.

00:20:23.000 The reason I think that the...

00:20:25.000 The reason this boycott worked, and this is great because this is the watershed moment, this is the ignition point, is that it's perishable.

00:20:35.000 So that means it has to move from shelves quickly, otherwise it gets trashed.

00:20:39.000 If you get three days of people not buying something, Then immediately they're going to be like, sales report, it's down.

00:20:46.000 People are throwing away cans.

00:20:48.000 Then it's going to hit the news cycle again and it's going to stay in the news cycle.

00:20:51.000 With Target, it's more difficult.

00:20:53.000 With Disney, it's more difficult because people could boycott it for three days and then come right back.

00:20:58.000 You might not even notice.

00:20:59.000 Or they could totally boycott it and you're not going to get any news for three months until the next quarter when they do reports and stuff like sales reports or subscriber reports.

00:21:08.000 Target might not feel it right away.

00:21:09.000 Well, Target's got perishable goods too.

00:21:11.000 They sell groceries.

00:21:13.000 Yeah, but if 80% of people keep shopping at Target, they're going to move that product.

00:21:17.000 What happened is Bud Light's perishable, and people noticed right away nobody was buying it.

00:21:23.000 Stores started to panic, and then it hits the news again.

00:21:26.000 Wow, these stores aren't selling Bud Light.

00:21:29.000 Once it gets back in the news, more people start asking why.

00:21:33.000 That causes the news to ripple, and the meme to ripple.

00:21:38.000 Then the stock tanks.

00:21:40.000 Now we've created the Bud Light effect, which is probably the most powerful tool.

00:21:44.000 When Target faces a boycott, it doesn't matter if it's sales.

00:21:47.000 What matters is shareholders get scared that they're going to go the same route as Bud Light.

00:21:52.000 And if Bud Light tanked, after everyone said, no, Bud Light's great, Anheuser-Busch is gonna do great, if it's still tanked, then you're sitting on Target stock, you're gonna be like, nah, I better not have this.

00:22:03.000 I'm not giving you any advice.

00:22:04.000 I'm not telling you what to do.

00:22:05.000 I'm just saying.

00:22:06.000 I'm sure a lot of people were like, Whether you know or not that target stock will go down, why wait?

00:22:15.000 Like there's no positive news, right?

00:22:16.000 Yeah.

00:22:17.000 So if I'm looking at my stock portfolio and I've got, let's just do a hypothetical, $100.

00:22:22.000 I'm like, the negative news is not going to make the stock go up, is it?

00:22:26.000 It may make the stock go down.

00:22:28.000 I'll sell and hold on $100.

00:22:29.000 Yeah.

00:22:30.000 Sell the stock, hold the cash, wait to see what happens.

00:22:33.000 Then that triggers a sell-off.

00:22:35.000 The sell-off creates a self-fulfilling prophecy and then...

00:22:38.000 So anyway, back to Harley-Davidson.

00:22:40.000 I'm wondering if they're going to get it, because someone told me this the other day.

00:22:44.000 We were talking about it and we didn't, you know, I don't know.

00:22:46.000 Is Harley-Davidson publicly traded?

00:22:49.000 I do not know.

00:22:51.000 They are, and they're currently up 0.52%.

00:22:55.000 They're up 1.26% in the past five days.

00:23:01.000 I gotta be honest, man, I would not be surprised to see Harley Davidson stock take a hit when this news breaks.

00:23:08.000 That being said, the news is breaking on a Friday.

00:23:11.000 Yeah.

00:23:11.000 And a holiday weekend, too.

00:23:12.000 Memorial Day weekend.

00:23:13.000 Everybody's already gone.

00:23:15.000 Like, I don't even know why we're here, to be completely honest.

00:23:17.000 We're not going to be here on Monday.

00:23:18.000 But I was like, I guess we have to do something.

00:23:20.000 We can hang out, you know?

00:23:23.000 You were talking about the Target stock and stuff.

00:23:27.000 I saw Clint tweeted this earlier from Liberty Lockpot.

00:23:31.000 More than 60 civil society groups are now demanding that all businesses cease Twitter ad buys because Musk had the audacity to let Ron DeSantis announce his presidential run on Twitter.

00:23:44.000 And it's because of the ESG DEI stuff?

00:23:48.000 If you've got what are ostensibly capitalist organizations pressuring um, other organizations to stop buying ads because of

00:24:01.000 politics.

00:24:01.000 Uh, I imagine that the ESG and DEI stuff that incentivize target to do the things like having the pride, you know,

00:24:11.000 the pride stuff every year.

00:24:12.000 I feel like that is gonna be, I feel like people are going to start taking notice of that, taking notice of the ESG

00:24:19.000 stuff because it's, it's already something that you hear kind of rumbling.

00:24:23.000 I saw something on CNBC, they were doing basically a hit on it and discussing the benefits, and I think that that could be Something really, really good for the right, basically.

00:24:37.000 Because it's better than boycotting one company.

00:24:40.000 It gets people to focus on what is basically social engineering of the capitalist system, you know?

00:24:48.000 And that has been such an effective way to get compliance from corporations and stuff like that.

00:24:54.000 And that's, honestly, I think the most important thing to focus on if you're looking at boycotts or whatever you want to hit companies in the pocketbook.

00:25:03.000 Look for companies that are making ESG and DEI commitments.

00:25:09.000 So, I've got an announcement for everybody. 0.98

00:25:13.000 The message Bud Light has for you is that if you drink their beer, you are gay. 0.99

00:25:19.000 And I'm not being tongue-in-cheek. 0.98

00:25:20.000 Bud Light sponsors Cincinnati Pride Parade after Dylan Mulvaney controversy.

00:25:25.000 The reason why I say it that way is After the controversy already put Bud Light in this position where they were viewed as a beer for the LGBT community, Bud Light decided, you know what, whatever, double down, sponsor a Pride event.

00:25:41.000 And that's fine, they're allowed to do whatever they want, you know, whatever.

00:25:45.000 Just like, I think they've decided, you know what, embrace it.

00:25:49.000 Just go right with it, they are officially the beer for the LGBT community. 0.93

00:25:54.000 I don't know why you're laughing.

00:25:56.000 That's the route they're going.

00:25:59.000 I respect it.

00:26:00.000 You know why? 0.98

00:26:01.000 When they sponsor Dylan Mulvaney and try and hem and haw and play this stupid game of no, no, oh wait, no, we didn't mean it, but not actually apologizing, not actually saying anything. 0.99

00:26:09.000 I'm just like, dude, you can't have your cake and eat it too. 0.90

00:26:11.000 You can't make a Clydesdale commercial with 9-11 stuff in it and then do this stuff at the same time.

00:26:17.000 So then they lie low for a little bit.

00:26:19.000 Then they sponsor Pride.

00:26:20.000 They're basically coming out and being like, this is the route we've decided to go.

00:26:24.000 We want to be a niche beer for a small community.

00:26:29.000 And I can respect it.

00:26:30.000 I think they're looking at their brand and they're being like, Bud Light's done.

00:26:33.000 Let's pass it on to this community who likes it.

00:26:36.000 And make money with a core base that's substantially smaller than the general market.

00:26:40.000 And then focus on something else.

00:26:42.000 I do think it's funny that Budweiser sponsored, or was sponsored by, or partnered with Harley Davidson, because they're like, okay, here's the plan. 0.97

00:26:50.000 Budweiser is manly and Bud Light is gay. 1.00

00:26:53.000 I see what they're doing there. 0.98

00:26:55.000 I don't know why you're laughing!

00:26:55.000 It's not a joke!

00:26:58.000 It's just literally what they're doing.

00:26:59.000 Look man, load the bases, right?

00:27:02.000 Get everybody out there.

00:27:04.000 Load the bases.

00:27:05.000 Oh yeah, this is a picture?

00:27:07.000 And then all you gotta do is hit a single and you're making money.

00:27:09.000 They talk about how they're doing the camo cans or whatever.

00:27:13.000 I saw that.

00:27:14.000 For veterans.

00:27:15.000 But then they go and do this and it's like, I don't think they, look dude, they don't care about you.

00:27:20.000 They don't care about you, they don't care about your values.

00:27:21.000 They're just like, I don't know man, we want to make money.

00:27:24.000 So this is it.

00:27:25.000 This news, this is what, because it's coming out today, right?

00:27:29.000 I think so, yeah.

00:27:30.000 This news is breaking?

00:27:32.000 Yeah.

00:27:32.000 Yeah, on a Friday?

00:27:34.000 So we're after hours?

00:27:35.000 I gotta, look man, I think their stock is gonna drop bad.

00:27:39.000 Oh yeah.

00:27:39.000 If their stock already took a major hit from this, and they double down, I can't imagine how their stock recovers.

00:27:46.000 You're talking about Bud Light, right?

00:27:48.000 Anheuser.

00:27:48.000 Anheuser, yeah.

00:27:49.000 Anheuser in general.

00:27:50.000 But again, it's not even so much as to whether or not this will impact sales.

00:27:55.000 It's that you have a major scandal, major scandal, people stop buying, stock drops.

00:28:01.000 Then, as the stock is going bad, you engage in the same practice that resulted in the boycott in the first place.

00:28:08.000 I have to imagine anybody holding Anheuser stock at this point going, oh man, I tried to hold out, and just sells.

00:28:15.000 I wouldn't be surprised if their stock drops by like 15 points in the next few days.

00:28:19.000 And the Memorial Day rebate, too, it's even worse when they're basically giving away free beer because it's more expensive to, you know, send it back and throw it away.

00:28:27.000 The rebate's hilarious.

00:28:28.000 Yeah, it is the most comical thing ever because people were joking about it.

00:28:31.000 They're like, we can't give it away for free at this point.

00:28:34.000 And then two weeks later, it was an actual campaign.

00:28:37.000 So it's beyond comical.

00:28:41.000 It's pretty funny.

00:28:42.000 I think it does make more sense to just pick a route and take it, though, than to try to please everyone, because then there's always going to be the group who's like, well, I don't like that they're doing the Pride stuff, and then there's going to be the ads that are like manly men that are going to clash, and it's never going to please the whole customer base.

00:29:01.000 There's been, for the longest time, for a significant portion at least of my life, there has been an incentive for companies to avoid politics.

00:29:13.000 Yeah.

00:29:13.000 Because then you're, you know, Michael Jordan said it best, Republicans buy sneakers too.

00:29:20.000 That's the way it was from the 80s, 90s.

00:29:23.000 Pardon me?

00:29:24.000 It really shouldn't matter either.

00:29:26.000 It's crazy to see how many big companies are deciding to make that like a forefront of their advertisements.

00:29:32.000 Well, I mean, I think it's because of the ESG stuff, because the point is, if you're a stakeholder, they call it stakeholder capitalism, if you have a stake in these companies, if you're a stakeholder, Even if you lose money on this particular investment, there are opportunities that will be made for companies that have a high enough ESG score.

00:29:54.000 So you may lose money here, but down the road, there will be opportunities.

00:29:59.000 And essentially, what it seems like it's going to turn into is a way to lock people out that don't have a high enough ESG score.

00:30:07.000 It's a social credit system, but for companies.

00:30:11.000 So if you don't have a high enough ESG score, you don't get the opportunities, you don't get the chance to bid on this contractor, you don't get the chance to do this job, you don't get the chance to do this.

00:30:22.000 So whereas there might be companies that lose money in the beginning when they do something that's unpopular, over time It's fine because companies that don't play along will be shut out.

00:30:35.000 So it's a social credit course starting with companies and it'll eventually move down to the population because there are people that have been unbanked, kicked out of the banking system and stuff.

00:30:45.000 That is a real thing.

00:30:46.000 It is straight-up Maoism coming to America.

00:30:50.000 Yeah, they already lost, like, points on their- their corporate equality index thing, it says.

00:30:54.000 Was- Anheuser did?

00:30:55.000 Uh, yeah.

00:30:56.000 They had a perfect 100 score and, uh, they- it doesn't say what it's decreasing to, but they got a letter from the human rights campaign saying that it's- they're going to decrease their score.

00:31:06.000 Wait, the Human Rights Campaign keeps score?

00:31:08.000 Well, I keep score from now on, too, and it's the America score.

00:31:12.000 And I give Anheuser-Busch a minus 50.

00:31:15.000 The worst score you could get, because minus 50 is where we stop for some reason.

00:31:20.000 Well, what are they losing points for?

00:31:22.000 Putting the VP on leave?

00:31:24.000 The non-apology post?

00:31:26.000 I think because they kind of distanced themselves, the non-apology type thing, but it was offensive enough to that crowd.

00:31:33.000 Well, that's what Target is doing too.

00:31:35.000 They're like, well, just put this stuff in the back of the store.

00:31:38.000 No, he straight up said, hide this from our customers, but then tell everyone else that we're still on their side.

00:31:44.000 It was like, Amazingly offensive to everyone.

00:31:48.000 I was really impressed by that.

00:31:49.000 That's what I was saying.

00:31:50.000 They try to please everyone.

00:31:52.000 They piss everyone off.

00:31:53.000 He wasn't trying to please everybody.

00:31:54.000 In no sensible reality, would you be like, hey, I'm on your side, ALX. 0.52

00:32:02.000 We're going to put that Benny Johnson book on the floor so nobody can see it.

00:32:05.000 That's an insult.

00:32:07.000 That's not defending, you're like, uh, okay.

00:32:10.000 It's like acting like, it's how you insult someone tongue in cheek, you know?

00:32:15.000 So are they being boycotted by leftists now too because of that?

00:32:20.000 You know what I think happened is they said that they had incidents in the South or whatever.

00:32:24.000 Yeah.

00:32:25.000 Yo, I bet they went into some like very conservative areas and their targets and they put a bunch of pride stuff.

00:32:29.000 And I bet people walked in and, you know, we hear these stories about confrontations and threats and stuff.

00:32:35.000 People on the right are like, no, that didn't happen.

00:32:37.000 I don't think it was conservatives.

00:32:39.000 I told this to Wesley Hunt the other day.

00:32:42.000 I think regular people snapped. 0.99

00:32:43.000 I think some dude walked in with his kid down in Alabama or something, his little four-year-old daughter, to get a pack of beer, and he walks in and he sees it, and he's like, what the fuck are you doing? 0.99

00:32:53.000 I got my kid here, man! 0.92

00:32:55.000 And then probably yelled, and I think that's stuff we just didn't see.

00:32:58.000 Yeah.

00:32:58.000 Benny did a video yesterday.

00:32:59.000 He was literally at Target in Tampa yesterday, and it's still right in the front.

00:33:03.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:33:04.000 It probably depends on the city.

00:33:06.000 Yeah, they said in the south.

00:33:09.000 At the one in Martinsburg.

00:33:14.000 It's right out front.

00:33:15.000 I haven't been there, I've been boycotting.

00:33:17.000 It was like five days ago or something like that.

00:33:20.000 Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it stayed.

00:33:22.000 I think it was a video on Twitter, I can't remember who posted it, but it was some guy tearing down the Pride sign.

00:33:30.000 Which, that's not cool, that's vandalism, don't do that.

00:33:33.000 But it was captioned, terrorism.

00:33:37.000 And I was like, eh, I don't know about terrorism.

00:33:39.000 Well, that's what Kasobic posted, the old Summer of Love videos.

00:33:42.000 It's because... It wasn't that.

00:33:44.000 It was a different one.

00:33:45.000 Well, that's what I was saying.

00:33:46.000 It was in response to that.

00:33:47.000 Yeah.

00:33:47.000 Because... When I saw those, I almost fell for it that that was real, but I was like, this looks too familiar.

00:33:53.000 Adrienne Curry said, my friend works at Target in Joliet, Illinois, and people freaked out in the store.

00:33:59.000 Wow, I can see that!

00:34:00.000 Being from Chicago, and we used to hang out in Joliet periodically.

00:34:04.000 Also, hi Adrienne!

00:34:07.000 Come back anytime!

00:34:08.000 We've had so many killer shows in Joliet, Illinois.

00:34:11.000 No kidding around.

00:34:12.000 Seriously.

00:34:13.000 Like, I haven't been there in a very long time.

00:34:15.000 It's probably been 15 years.

00:34:17.000 But my view of the people down there are like... They're... I don't know.

00:34:21.000 How do you describe it?

00:34:24.000 It's hard to describe.

00:34:25.000 Without being insulting.

00:34:27.000 I say this as a term of endearment. 0.99

00:34:29.000 White trashy? 1.00

00:34:30.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:34:30.000 You know, because like, I'm a South Side... Like, we were South Side white trash-ish. 1.00

00:34:34.000 I mean, we're like a mixed family or whatever. 0.86

00:34:36.000 But like, we lived in this area where everybody was kind of just poor, working class, white people.

00:34:41.000 And...

00:34:43.000 I can imagine people in Joliet being like, get this out of here, man.

00:34:47.000 Like, we have kids.

00:34:48.000 But I don't know.

00:34:49.000 Times change.

00:34:50.000 I don't know what Joliet's like these days.

00:34:51.000 The Forge in Joliet's a place that we play.

00:34:53.000 It's awesome.

00:34:53.000 They got a prison down there, too.

00:34:55.000 Oh yeah, that's where Ink and the Clink is.

00:34:57.000 That's where the, um, I think.

00:34:59.000 No, I could be wrong.

00:35:00.000 No, no.

00:35:01.000 Old State Prison.

00:35:02.000 Apparently it's really bad.

00:35:04.000 Yeah, but anyway, the CEO of Target is like, we want to let you all know that we're here, we're on your side, and we still do support you.

00:35:10.000 We're just putting you in the back so that nobody can see you.

00:35:14.000 But what you said, you said the one out here was still in the front?

00:35:18.000 Yes, well, the one in Martinsburg, and this was a couple days ago, so I'm not sure if the intensity had gotten to the point where they were like, oh, we got to get it out of here.

00:35:28.000 I don't remember exactly what day I went in there, it was the other day, but it was when I went in, yeah, and they still had plenty of pride stuff.

00:35:34.000 You know, West Virginia, second most Trump-supporting country... Trump-supporting state in the country.

00:35:41.000 It's not a country itself.

00:35:43.000 And I gotta tell you, there's a lot of woke stuff in West Virginia.

00:35:45.000 It's weird.

00:35:46.000 I really think it's because the companies have, you know, have... I mean, it's...

00:35:51.000 There is a lot of pressure from groups like BlackRock and like the Human Rights Campaign and all these non-governmental organizations and stuff that are trying to get companies to behave in a certain way.

00:36:06.000 It's like...

00:36:09.000 It's as if the Marxist realized that if you go into a society via capitalism, that'll work.

00:36:18.000 Because that's what happened in China, you know?

00:36:21.000 China was incredibly poor until Deng Xiaoping opened up markets, and that made China capable of flourishing. 0.98

00:36:30.000 If you don't have some type of markets, You know, it's extremely controlled and trying to decide who can and cannot be successful like that.

00:36:39.000 There was a billionaire that just went missing last year or whatever just disappeared.

00:36:45.000 But oh, yeah Jack Jack Ma.

00:36:47.000 Yeah.

00:36:48.000 Yeah, but they decide who can and cannot do business, but they're still allowed to do business.

00:36:54.000 And so the CCP decides who's going to be successful and who's not and if you play by the rules then You're in, and that's what's coming to America through ESG.

00:37:06.000 There will be essentially, you know...

00:37:09.000 Non-government organizations, possibly even, it might get to the point where it's actually in the government.

00:37:15.000 I think a lot of these companies just think this stuff sells.

00:37:18.000 They see it on TV, they see it because it's basically a cascade effect, it's dominoes falling over.

00:37:24.000 One company does it, then other companies are like, this is what's popular, then it gets in commercials, and they're like, okay, everyone's for this.

00:37:30.000 Then the Bud Light thing happens, and now people are starting to go, whoa, slam the brakes, this is actually bad for us.

00:37:35.000 But somebody, David, in the regular chat said, we were in the panhandle, Look, man, we went all across the northern part of West Virginia, I drove all the way close to Ohio, and there's a lot of woke stuff.

00:37:47.000 And the issue is, the average person does not pay attention and doesn't believe you because they don't pay attention, and it's really terrifying.

00:37:55.000 When, you know, I'll be talking to someone and I'll say, oh, did you hear about insert left-wing policy?

00:37:59.000 And they'll say, that's not true.

00:38:00.000 And I'm like, dude...

00:38:02.000 Please Google it on your phone right now.

00:38:04.000 Like, the best example of this is when Dennis Prager was on Bill Maher and said that the normative statement of the LGBT community and the left is that men can menstruate, and they all laughed.

00:38:15.000 And Bill was like, I thought you used to be reasonable.

00:38:18.000 And it's like, it reminds me of that Kierkegaard, the clown, comes out on the stage and says, there's a fire backstage, they all laugh, and then he says, no, no, seriously, they laugh harder. 0.99

00:38:26.000 That's what Prager was doing on Bill Maher, saying like, they're doing this, and then all the people go, ah, you're so silly, it's so ridiculous. 0.98

00:38:35.000 In West Virginia, they had an all-ages drag show. 0.98

00:38:38.000 I don't care where you are in West Virginia, how does that happen?

00:38:42.000 And so that actually had me almost considering not setting up business here.

00:38:47.000 Because I was like, okay, I know that Florida is fighting this.

00:38:51.000 I don't want to live in Florida.

00:38:53.000 I've lived there before.

00:38:54.000 Florida's got great politics right now, but it is not my... I like snowboarding.

00:39:00.000 I grew up in Chicago.

00:39:01.000 I like the cold.

00:39:02.000 I like four seasons.

00:39:04.000 So I'm not gonna... And Texas, eh.

00:39:06.000 I don't know if I could do that either.

00:39:07.000 West Virginia, it hits all the good points.

00:39:09.000 It's MAGA country. 0.68

00:39:10.000 You got mountains.

00:39:11.000 You got rivers.

00:39:12.000 You got snow.

00:39:12.000 You got lakes.

00:39:13.000 And I'm like, all right.

00:39:15.000 And then are they really fighting ESG stuff?

00:39:17.000 Are they really fighting the wokeness? 0.98

00:39:18.000 To a certain degree, yes.

00:39:19.000 I'll give a shout out to Riley Moore, who I believe this was the first state that banned ESG at the state level, state contracting.

00:39:25.000 And then a bunch of other states started following suit.

00:39:27.000 And he's the treasurer.

00:39:29.000 So they are.

00:39:30.000 However, Republicans and conservatives make the mistake of thinking you can win a culture war in a courthouse, in a statehouse.

00:39:39.000 And what's happening is, in these schools in West Virginia, this is a cult, right?

00:39:44.000 And I'm talking to family and they're like, well, you say it's a cult and you really should.

00:39:48.000 And I'm like, dude, They come to schools, and they say they're Christians, they say they're conservatives, and then they start introducing woke books into the school.

00:40:00.000 Then they get called out, and they say, oh yeah, I'm here for all of that.

00:40:04.000 They get elected.

00:40:05.000 Lying and claiming that they're regular old people from good old West Virginia.

00:40:09.000 And it turns out they moved here recently from cities and they're trying to indoctrinate kids.

00:40:14.000 And then all of a sudden I'm hearing from parents out in West Virginia like, how come my kids are talking about this stuff?

00:40:19.000 Because you missed when they moved into your schools.

00:40:22.000 They are a cult. 1.00

00:40:23.000 They are psychotic. 1.00

00:40:25.000 And I'm not talking about every single liberal. 1.00

00:40:27.000 That's ridiculous. 0.99

00:40:28.000 I'm talking about literally the extremist small faction that are for violence and want to bring all this weird sexual stuff around kids. 0.99

00:40:36.000 They are in your schools.

00:40:37.000 And I don't care where you live.

00:40:39.000 If you're not paying attention to your schools, they're probably there.

00:40:41.000 And you're like, no, I'm in a place.

00:40:43.000 It's 80.

00:40:43.000 Look, West Virginia is 86% Trump supporting state.

00:40:47.000 And I'm in a place where everyone's got Trump signs and the children are being brought these books.

00:40:52.000 So much so that there was an effort to start homeschoolings and pods to get their kids out because they're like, what do we do?

00:40:58.000 These people, like they got voted in.

00:40:59.000 They lied.

00:41:00.000 We thought they were conservative.

00:41:01.000 We thought they were a regular family, suburban.

00:41:03.000 Nope.

00:41:03.000 People don't realize it.

00:41:04.000 It's in the curriculum.

00:41:06.000 Like these are all free.

00:41:07.000 It's all Frearian curriculum. 0.96

00:41:08.000 It's all Palo Freire.

00:41:10.000 It's all.

00:41:12.000 It's all in the schools of education so first it goes into the colleges that teach the teachers and then you start pumping out teachers that are true believers that really believe that this is the proper way to educate kids and this is blah blah blah you know this is what this is what kids need to learn and the future it's not so important if they do are good at math because Your cell phone's gonna be with you all the time.

00:41:34.000 It's not so important if you know stuff because you can look it up.

00:41:37.000 So what they're doing is teaching kids SEL, social emotional learning.

00:41:42.000 They're teaching kids how to exist in the society of the future.

00:41:46.000 How they intend to shape society.

00:41:49.000 But the part that's in there that people miss is these people have a goal.

00:41:56.000 They have a Design of society in mind and they're looking to create People a society that will fit into the society that they want to create, you know And most parents don't know so you get kids part of the reason why the

00:42:15.000 The test scores are so terrible because it doesn't matter if your kids can read well, everything can will be will be, you know, audio to them, like it'll be read to them.

00:42:23.000 It doesn't matter if your kids can do math because you can just do it on a calculator.

00:42:26.000 So the few and they also have a there's also a lot of people that think that, like, everything's going to be automated.

00:42:32.000 So you don't you're not going to have to do any work.

00:42:35.000 So you have to have other skills for the future.

00:42:38.000 That's I mean, truckers right now are the largest job for For high school educated men.

00:42:48.000 If Elon Musk is successful with making cars that really can drive themselves, it's going to be way more efficient in 10, 20 years to have trucks that drive themselves.

00:43:00.000 So you're going to put how many people out of work?

00:43:02.000 I mean, Tucker Carlson's already said that if he were in power or in a position of authority, he'd just shut that down.

00:43:09.000 but they're trying to make the new society by doing it through your kids.

00:43:16.000 And they want you completely incapable.

00:43:19.000 I saw this clip.

00:43:20.000 I want to play this clip for you.

00:43:21.000 I saw this from Isabel Brown on Instagram.

00:43:23.000 So we're doing a picture in a picture video or we're reacting to a reaction,

00:43:29.000 but I don't know the original video, but I'm going to play this for you.

00:43:32.000 They don't know how to address an envelope.

00:43:35.000 They don't know how to read cursive.

00:43:36.000 She's talking about Gen Z. They don't know how to read a paper map. 1.00

00:43:41.000 They can't get anywhere unless there's a GPS map on their phone.

00:43:45.000 All I'm saying is if Gen Z takes over the world, it's gonna be pretty easy to get it back. 1.00

00:43:51.000 We're just gonna write our battle plans in cursive on a piece of paper.

00:43:57.000 That actually is a true story.

00:43:59.000 We talked about it before.

00:44:00.000 Look at her face! 0.99

00:44:02.000 So there's that story where they did the war game and the younger guys lost to the older guys and it was like the older guys wrote their plans on a note and put it in a guy's pocket and wrote it by motorcycle and they were trying to like intercept messages.

00:44:13.000 People talk about it.

00:44:14.000 They tell us the specifics.

00:44:16.000 But Isabel then goes on to mention that You were supposed to teach us.

00:44:21.000 Yeah.

00:44:21.000 And that's the most brutal thing about it.

00:44:24.000 That woman, she's telling a joke. 1.00

00:44:26.000 It's a joke.

00:44:26.000 It's fine.

00:44:27.000 But the crazy thing is that she would joke about her own failures, a generational failure, and they all laugh.

00:44:34.000 And I'm like, I get you're joking.

00:44:38.000 But every joke has its truth.

00:44:40.000 And you don't genuinely think you will take the world back from Gen Z, you do believe you're handing it off. 1.00

00:44:45.000 But if you really believe that Gen Z is incompetent, incapable, and you're laughing about it, this is us being flushed down the drain.

00:44:52.000 When did we go, serious question for you guys, when did we go from a nation where we were like, we need to prepare our children for the future, to, you're on your own, I can't believe they can't do these things.

00:45:04.000 When we trusted public schools to teach our kids and didn't pay enough attention to see the changes happening.

00:45:10.000 I think that's completely it.

00:45:12.000 Let's go all the way back to the start.

00:45:13.000 It's not just schools either.

00:45:14.000 I witnessed this happen at a summer camp that I was working at, like a skateboarding camp, where where a few people who are really into this

00:45:21.000 started like asking kids their pronouns and doing these types of rituals,

00:45:25.000 like when we would do our intro games and stuff.

00:45:28.000 Yeah, it's like very, very leftist activists.

00:45:32.000 And I was sitting there thinking like, why are we talking to 12 year olds like this?

00:45:36.000 We're supposed to be skateboarding and playing fun, like, get-to-know-you games.

00:45:42.000 Like, their parents didn't agree to this, and I don't want to be a part of this, and I ended up leaving.

00:45:46.000 But it's hard to stay in a position like that when the people in control are pushing that.

00:45:52.000 I think- I think this started with public schooling.

00:45:55.000 I think about why it is that so many- Why does Gen Z not want to work? 1.00

00:46:00.000 There was a story I saw the other day and it said, Gen Z doesn't want to work.

00:46:03.000 Poll shows.

00:46:05.000 And I'm like, okay, what does work mean?

00:46:07.000 Seriously, what does work refer to?

00:46:09.000 I wake up every day, I work like 16 hours.

00:46:11.000 Every single thing I do is work.

00:46:13.000 And it's fun.

00:46:14.000 I'm having fun.

00:46:15.000 Everything I'm doing is in the pursuit of some kind of work.

00:46:18.000 We go skateboarding.

00:46:20.000 It's like, yeah, we're filming videos, we're launching a show, we're gonna be setting up a park, we're gonna be making things for people to enjoy and to consume and to be inspired by.

00:46:28.000 These younger people, and it's not just younger people, but it's increasing with the generations, don't want to do anything.

00:46:37.000 They're nihilistic.

00:46:39.000 Not all of them, I'm not saying everybody, but there's a lot of them who are nihilistic, they want to lay around, they don't even want to read books, they don't want to watch TV, they don't want to watch movies, they might just put on The Office on Netflix and just sit there.

00:46:48.000 What happened where people... I'll tell you what I think.

00:46:51.000 Here's how it used to be.

00:46:53.000 Dad wakes up and he goes, alright son, off to work, come on.

00:46:58.000 And he'd bring his kid with him to his, you know, wood shop or whatever, and this is hundreds of years ago, and he would show his son what he did.

00:47:04.000 And his son would be there and he'd be like, go grab the tools from the shed, and then the kid would watch him do it.

00:47:09.000 As the kid got older, the kid would get more responsibility from his dad.

00:47:11.000 And then when the dad was old and was like, I can't do this job anymore, the kid would be like, don't worry, dad, I'll keep the shop running.

00:47:17.000 And then you get this like, seven generation, you know, woodworking thing and it becomes a big company inherited.

00:47:23.000 All the kids learning the whole way.

00:47:25.000 And then at some point we said, I got an idea.

00:47:27.000 Let's take the kids away from their parents so they don't learn, put them in an institutionalized learning facility for general education, separating them from their parents.

00:47:35.000 And then they don't work.

00:47:37.000 When they're in school, they learn general stuff, they play, they take tests.

00:47:41.000 Well, if you take a kid and their development is tests, guess what they're gonna be good at when they're older?

00:47:46.000 Reading books and taking tests.

00:47:47.000 And then they turn into career students, too, because it's like, you're almost expected to go to college out of high school without even knowing what you're going to college for.

00:47:47.000 Yeah.

00:47:56.000 And then once you're in college and you're halfway through, you're like, I don't know what I'm going to do still.

00:48:01.000 And then it's like, OK, I'm going to get another degree and another degree.

00:48:04.000 And they become career students and they're actually learning nothing of value.

00:48:07.000 And just obtaining a ton of debt.

00:48:09.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:48:10.000 That they'll never be able to crawl out of.

00:48:12.000 I'll tell you what I did when I was a little kid.

00:48:15.000 Since I was alive, my family had computers.

00:48:17.000 I guess I had, like, my uncle was into it.

00:48:19.000 My mom got a computer.

00:48:20.000 We had, like, 2A floppy disks.

00:48:21.000 We had CompuServe on DOS Shell, or DOS and DOS Shell, eventually.

00:48:25.000 We had DOS games.

00:48:26.000 So I'm always using computers.

00:48:28.000 We had the internet my whole life.

00:48:30.000 I'm on AOL.

00:48:31.000 I'm on CompuServe and AOL when I was a little kid.

00:48:33.000 Parental restrictions and stuff, but I'm, you know, browsing the internet.

00:48:37.000 Eventually, I'm downloading programs.

00:48:39.000 I start reading news articles.

00:48:40.000 I used to go to FARC.com all the time.

00:48:42.000 Do you guys remember FARC?

00:48:43.000 Yeah.

00:48:43.000 Yeah, that was good fun.

00:48:45.000 Man, I was probably like 13 when I'm reading these news stories.

00:48:48.000 All of a sudden, there I am, skating with my friends, but having read the news all day, and then we would be talking about this stuff, and I'd be like, oh yeah, I read this story.

00:48:56.000 Here I am, as an adult, quite literally doing very much the exact same thing I've always done.

00:49:01.000 And I look at what's happening now with the younger generation and what they're being taught.

00:49:06.000 The moment we separated kids from their parents, that was when the roots were cut.

00:49:11.000 And you created this domino effect of parents who don't teach their kids, who have kids who don't teach their kids, who have kids who don't teach their kids, and then after a few generations...

00:49:21.000 It all just crumbles.

00:49:22.000 And now you've got comedians laughing, being like, Gen Z's so incompetent! 1.00

00:49:25.000 I'm like, you're the ones who were supposed to have passed on the knowledge and capabilities to Gen Z. They didn't do it. 0.97

00:49:30.000 They've all just said, it's someone else's responsibility.

00:49:34.000 And what we're seeing now is the worst of it.

00:49:36.000 Where these teachers are trying to indoctrinate kids with this weird groomer stuff. 0.99

00:49:41.000 Yeah, for sure.

00:49:41.000 And then the thing, too, about like what you mentioned about not enough states fighting back against, you know, the education system, doing that.

00:49:48.000 You saw the backlash in Florida.

00:49:50.000 There was a national campaign almost to smear the Don't Say Gay Bill when in actuality it was, you know… The Parental Rights and Education Bill.

00:49:57.000 Exactly.

00:49:58.000 And they kept saying the so-called Don't Say Gay Bill to skirt responsibility.

00:50:03.000 You had people like saying, oh, Ron DeSantis called it this.

00:50:06.000 It's like, well, no, it wasn't actually his legislation.

00:50:09.000 And then also the reality of it, it's like you can't like teach toddlers like sexual education and, you know, without their parents' consent.

00:50:18.000 It's like that was the actual, you know, bill.

00:50:21.000 And there was a national conversation against it.

00:50:23.000 And that was just like at a state level.

00:50:25.000 So, you know, imagine if another state that isn't as red as Florida did that, you know, the national spotlight kind of Make states not want to take it on because it is an uphill battle when, you know, the actual national media get involved in the conversation.

00:50:40.000 When I think about this stuff, it makes me very, very optimistic, because I kind of feel like we're actually coming out of the crisis period.

00:50:49.000 The stuff that we're seeing, and people waking up, and people saying, homeschool your kids?

00:50:53.000 Homeschooling your kids is literally what you were supposed to be doing, what humans have always done.

00:50:57.000 The kids were learning from their parents, and then we got to a point where we had schoolhouses.

00:51:01.000 I know that we've had schoolhouses for a very, very long time, hundreds of years.

00:51:04.000 But we got to the point where everything became heavily institutionalized, and then parents started not caring about what their kids were learning, the culture started to fragment, and then you had kids learning weird things, and now we're at the worst point of it, where you got these books like Genderqueer, and This Book is Gay, which is like kink education for children, which should not be in these schools, But now people are starting to reverse course and it's almost like the pendulum swung back and it's starting to go back the other direction. 0.84

00:51:30.000 Like people are starting to say, yeah, we shouldn't have this for our kids.

00:51:34.000 And if we start implementing pod learning across the board, then the future looks pretty bright.

00:51:39.000 It's also been the economy because you had in the 1950s you had one parent that could stay at the house with the children well and you know it was one salary you could pay for a nice house and a nice safe neighborhood.

00:51:50.000 Now you have many single parent households and if there are two parent households usually both parents are working.

00:51:56.000 So these children have You know, they don't have that parent around all the time.

00:52:00.000 They're sent to public school because it's daycare, you know?

00:52:03.000 That's what it's become.

00:52:06.000 The fact that public school has become daycare as opposed to an actual place for kids to go and learn stuff.

00:52:14.000 Is is is probably the biggest problem the United States is facing.

00:52:19.000 The fact that parents aren't involved in their kids lives.

00:52:23.000 I think that that's not just about the whole woke thing, but like there's a lot of crime problems that come from that, you know, kids that don't have Families that whether they be you know whatever you consider a family like I don't have a big strong Has to be a dad has to be a mom.

00:52:40.000 I think that it's okay if you have two moms or two dads I personally I think it's fine, but you have to have a masculine and a feminine Kind of parent or those roles have to be filled somehow and kids aren't getting that you certainly don't get it from a single mom And I understand there's a lot of single moms out there busting their hump, but it's not easy The media has lied to single mothers telling that they can be a single mother and a CEO of fortune 500 company You know and that's you just can't you there's no way you're gonna have time for both and 0.78

00:53:15.000 Your kids deserve way more time than what you could give if you're working full time.

00:53:22.000 So I think the problem, the biggest problems that we have are the fact that there aren't people, you know, that parents aren't raising their kids properly.

00:53:31.000 They're sending them off to school and not taking them to work with them and to teach them to do stuff.

00:53:37.000 So that's my opinion about the biggest problem is just schools.

00:53:43.000 Yeah, but I think we're taking it back.

00:53:44.000 I think the COVID thing triggered something accidentally that's freaking out the left in that parents got to actually hear what their kids were being told for the first time, basically ever.

00:53:55.000 When I hear about these stories out of West Virginia, parents say like, my kid came home and started saying weird stuff.

00:54:01.000 You know, talking about pansexual and gender stuff.

00:54:04.000 And then they're like, what's going on?

00:54:05.000 They're finally now realizing it, but it's too late.

00:54:08.000 These teachers that got hired, the people that got brought to the school boards, they infiltrated.

00:54:12.000 But people are waking up to it, and it's causing a shift.

00:54:15.000 Finally, people are saying, where it used to be, well, look, you know, go to school, and, you know, ignore that stuff.

00:54:22.000 Now the parents are like, whoa!

00:54:23.000 This is just too much.

00:54:25.000 Too much, too fast.

00:54:26.000 I think we're going to see a very, very positive shift, at the very least.

00:54:30.000 We may lose our status as this global empire, or whatever.

00:54:34.000 The reserve dollar may no longer be a thing.

00:54:37.000 The cost of living may go way, way up.

00:54:39.000 But the values will, I think, improve.

00:54:42.000 People will start working hard.

00:54:44.000 And then it'll be tough for us, but I think our kids will start to have it slightly better.

00:54:48.000 And then it'll get better from there.

00:54:50.000 Someone mentioned in the chat that houses used to cost like $13,000.

00:54:53.000 like thirteen thousand dollars so you have a thirty thousand dollar house and you'd make

00:54:57.000 something like five thousand dollars a year

00:55:00.000 you could buy a house you could pay it off Now people are making 30, 40, I think what, 40,000 is the median or 50,000 or something?

00:55:06.000 Something like that, 40,000.

00:55:07.000 And the average house is what, like 300 or something like that?

00:55:11.000 So it's multiples harder for people.

00:55:15.000 I think back to the 70s and stuff, I think Reagan screwed us over heavily.

00:55:19.000 I don't think it was just him.

00:55:21.000 I think feminism was, you know, you can never predict this stuff. 1.00

00:55:26.000 Feminism was a huge net positive and a huge net negative in a lot of different ways. 1.00

00:55:31.000 We got to the point where we were wealthy and secure, and so we were like, totally, women can do whatever they want. 1.00

00:55:36.000 We've got tons of people, we've got too many people, we've got so many people, why not?

00:55:39.000 And then what ends up happening is, now we have no families and we have no homes.

00:55:43.000 We have houses, homelessness, and we don't have families at all.

00:55:49.000 So I have to wonder with the Malthusians of the world, if they're not celebrating something like this.

00:55:55.000 And women are working and being taxed too. 1.00

00:55:58.000 Well, this is what ends up happening.

00:56:00.000 Now that you have both men and women working, the moment women enter the workplace, like it's around, I think like the early 1970s, instantly, you're an employer, you need mailroom attendant, not a high skill job, anyone can do it.

00:56:17.000 All of a sudden you have twice as many applications.

00:56:20.000 And so you're like, we can pay, you know, two bucks an hour or something.

00:56:25.000 Or I don't know what the wage would have been back then, but I imagine something around there.

00:56:29.000 And then instead of having men competing, you had just inundated.

00:56:34.000 Here's the other thing too, if women are less likely to negotiate, A man is at a disadvantage with women in the marketplace because if there are nothing but men, and this is not advocacy saying women should not be working, I'm saying this is a product of what has happened and it's something people should consider.

00:56:50.000 If there's a job opening, and the only applicants are men, and they compete with each other, and they say to the guy running the company, like, I want more money, and then the other guy's like, you're gonna give him more money, then I want more money, they're all competing, the wages are high, the profits are lower, you bring in women, and they say, I'll take whatever you can give, oh, that sounds good, because they're more agreeable, then all of a sudden, negotiating power of the guy is diminished. 0.52

00:57:14.000 A guy goes in against a, you know, a man and a woman go to a job interview, and they say the job pays $50,000 a year, and the guy goes, I need $60,000.

00:57:22.000 The woman says, okay.

00:57:24.000 That's it.

00:57:24.000 Woman gets the job.

00:57:25.000 So now you've got lower wages through market forces, twice the workforce, and now you've got no one focusing on family and the home.

00:57:35.000 Whatever the solution is that, I'm not saying I know, and I'm not saying that, uh... I am not advocating against women working, I think that's a good thing.

00:57:43.000 I'm just saying, consider that, and then we have to recognize where we're going from here.

00:57:48.000 Jordan Peterson got a lot of flack when he said, um, it's been a disaster.

00:57:52.000 Men and women working together.

00:57:53.000 And Vice asked him, what does he mean?

00:57:54.000 He's like, sexual harassment lawsuits, like crazy, look at all the stuff that's going on, women are getting abused!

00:57:58.000 It's like...

00:57:59.000 Okay, well that's interesting.

00:58:00.000 I don't know what the solution is though.

00:58:03.000 I wonder if the only result that is possible is that we become a much more traditional country.

00:58:10.000 That if you cannot maintain this level of luxury, security unless you have strong moral values and family

00:58:21.000 then it will fall and then when it invariably becomes less prosperous, more

00:58:27.000 dangerous, then you'll start to see those who succeed in these environments

00:58:31.000 are going to be more traditional.

00:58:34.000 That's a good direction to head in.

00:58:36.000 I think if women want to work, they should be able to, but it definitely is positive for families for someone to be home raising children. 0.71

00:58:44.000 And obviously that's not something everyone can do right now.

00:58:48.000 Like, I'm here, but I would like to go in that direction once I have kids.

00:58:53.000 Yeah.

00:58:54.000 You're on your way to getting married, so.

00:58:55.000 Yeah.

00:58:57.000 I got engaged, guys.

00:58:58.000 You're getting there.

00:59:00.000 Well, there you go.

00:59:01.000 In the meantime.

00:59:04.000 I don't know.

00:59:06.000 I think we're gonna have our dark days.

00:59:10.000 It kind of had to get worse before it got better, though.

00:59:13.000 It was easy to overlook until there was pornographic material in schools.

00:59:17.000 You can't ignore that.

00:59:19.000 I'm not so confident that easy days are around the corner.

00:59:23.000 Tim might be right in the future.

00:59:24.000 Closer than ever, though.

00:59:27.000 I mean, I guess closer than yesterday.

00:59:29.000 Okay, fine.

00:59:30.000 But still, I think that there's a lot of ways this can go really, really wrong.

00:59:36.000 The FDA just approved human trials for Neuralink.

00:59:41.000 Yeah!

00:59:42.000 Oh, it's coming!

00:59:43.000 Just yesterday.

00:59:44.000 It scares me talking about that.

00:59:46.000 What happens if Neuralink ends up being, and again, these problems that we're talking about,

00:59:51.000 people forget that these, this type of problem, like the nuclear war, right,

00:59:58.000 or the possibility of a nuclear war, that's a forever problem.

01:00:01.000 Like once the genie's out of the bottle, that's it.

01:00:03.000 That's a problem that the human race has to deal with forever.

01:00:07.000 The idea of getting rid of nuclear weapons ain't happening.

01:00:10.000 Countries are gonna have them.

01:00:13.000 That's gonna be the same thing with Neuralink once they get it to the point where it works well,

01:00:19.000 if you can actually simulate a, if Neuralink can simulate reality in your brain, right?

01:00:29.000 So they plug into your brain, and then this all goes away, and next thing you know, you're like in Tron World or whatever.

01:00:35.000 That doesn't, they don't put that, you know, power back, or that technology back in the box.

01:00:41.000 Yeah.

01:00:41.000 So that means that everybody that has a Neuralink, for all of time that people have Neuralinks, is at least vulnerable to hacking.

01:00:51.000 Yeah.

01:00:52.000 Human beings!

01:00:53.000 The possibilities that this kind of technology opens up is, it's, most people don't understand how how important it is and how impactful it's going to be on

01:01:05.000 the human race.

01:01:05.000 There are people that that are talking about AI on on Twitter and stuff that are

01:01:09.000 literally just begging Sam Altman to stop.

01:01:12.000 Constantly, there's this there's this guy.

01:01:15.000 I forget what his Twitter name is, but he's got a fairly decent size count,

01:01:19.000 150,000 or whatever.

01:01:20.000 And he's like, every time I see him tweet, he's like, don't you people realize how

01:01:25.000 terrifying this is?

01:01:26.000 Sam, just stop before it goes wrong.

01:01:29.000 And he's like, all the time.

01:01:30.000 And these are people that are like in the know, you know? 0.99

01:01:32.000 I'm just a dumb guy that yells at a stick, right? 0.96

01:01:35.000 These people know what they're talking about. 0.98

01:01:37.000 So, I mean, if they're concerned, I think that it's something that we should all be concerned with.

01:01:42.000 And again, these are not problems that go away.

01:01:46.000 So we have to come up with solutions that are sustaining solutions.

01:01:51.000 Yesterday, Neuralink tweeted, we're excited to share that we have received the FDA's approval to launch our first in-human clinical study.

01:01:57.000 This is the result of incredible work.

01:01:58.000 Blah blah blah.

01:01:59.000 We get it.

01:02:00.000 Recruitment is not yet open for our clinical trial.

01:02:03.000 We'll announce more information on this soon.

01:02:04.000 That's right.

01:02:05.000 We are getting very close to the point where they're going to ask humans to submit to Neuralink implants.

01:02:10.000 Now, for the time being, it is read-only.

01:02:14.000 And that's still okay.

01:02:17.000 Basically what they can do, what I was reading is that there's very thin like copper wires or whatever that they can lay on like the nerves and then start to absorb information and then decode.

01:02:27.000 And I think they were able to track like vital signs of pigs or something.

01:02:31.000 I don't know that they've done any kind of real neural link remote control of a person.

01:02:37.000 However, organic remote control already exists.

01:02:41.000 They've done this in cockroaches, I believe, in rats.

01:02:44.000 What they do with mammals is they can put in an implant which interferes with equilibrium and so they make the animal feel like it's falling over and then it has to run in that direction.

01:02:56.000 So if you start leaning forward, your body reacts and you try to right yourself up.

01:03:01.000 It's called balance.

01:03:02.000 They can manipulate that so you'll feel like you're falling backwards and try and start walking forward to try and counteract it because it's almost painful to try and resist.

01:03:13.000 It's almost like torture.

01:03:14.000 Like vertigo.

01:03:15.000 So they can do this.

01:03:17.000 They can do that now.

01:03:18.000 With Neuralink, the scary thing is going to be once they get to the point where they can write to your brain.

01:03:24.000 I don't know how far off that is.

01:03:27.000 It may be very, very far away.

01:03:29.000 So like putting thoughts in your brain.

01:03:32.000 Yes.

01:03:32.000 Who is signing up for these studies?

01:03:34.000 It doesn't have to be thoughts.

01:03:37.000 All it has to be is just a little bit of serotonin, a little bit of dopamine.

01:03:41.000 They can do that now.

01:03:42.000 You don't need Neuralink.

01:03:43.000 Yeah, with phones and stuff.

01:03:45.000 No, no, no.

01:03:46.000 I mean like they can put an implant in your brain.

01:03:48.000 You don't need Neuralink to connect and read data from your brain.

01:03:52.000 We've done it with rats a long time ago.

01:03:54.000 They did that experiment where the rat could press a button and get a dopamine hit.

01:03:57.000 And so it's just matching the button.

01:03:59.000 When I was talking to the guy from White Coat Waste Project earlier, man, the stuff they do with animals is scary.

01:04:05.000 I don't know, you guys might not want to watch that Culture War episode, because it's like talking about the horrible things they do to animals.

01:04:10.000 But if you don't like Fauci, you probably should watch it, because it'll make you not like him more.

01:04:14.000 They talk about how they, yeah, puppies.

01:04:17.000 I don't even want to say it, man, because people are going to get mad.

01:04:19.000 But let me just tell you that the psychotic things they do for no reason, it's just like there's evil people just to see.

01:04:25.000 It's like mad scientists.

01:04:28.000 I'm gonna say it because we've covered it before and I'm pissed off. 0.53

01:04:31.000 They take beagles, and this is funding under Fauci, and they would put a net around a part of the beagle and then put starved sand flies in it.

01:04:39.000 So the flies would eat the dog alive. 0.94

01:04:42.000 And it's like, why?

01:04:43.000 We want to see what happened.

01:04:45.000 There was one of the stories that we talked about was they put hamsters on steroids and then made them fight.

01:04:51.000 And I hear that, and I start laughing.

01:04:52.000 And I'm like, shh, you're kidding.

01:04:54.000 They spent a million dollars to put hamsters on steroids and make them fight. 1.00

01:04:58.000 I'm busting out laughing.

01:05:00.000 And then I watched the video, and I got really angry.

01:05:02.000 Because you're imagining hamsters, and they're buffing them up, and then you watch the video, and it's really grotesque.

01:05:08.000 What is their explanation for why they think that is necessary, or what they're saying?

01:05:14.000 Some of it does make sense.

01:05:16.000 Some of it is like, we are testing a new methodology for treating wounds and something, and we're like, okay, we get it.

01:05:22.000 But the problem is so much of this stuff is literally just like, please don't fire me, I need a grant.

01:05:28.000 And so, and the government is funding this stuff.

01:05:30.000 I don't want to go off on that tangent.

01:05:32.000 When it comes to the issue of Neuralink, my point is simply that we've done the studies on animals where we can control their brains.

01:05:37.000 I brought it up because he told me that they did this thing where they hooked up IVs to, I think, monkeys that fed them nicotine.

01:05:44.000 And then they could press a button to get a nicotine hit.

01:05:47.000 And it's just like, man, the stuff they can do to people, the stuff they've learned.

01:05:51.000 When it comes to Neuralink, the moment they can write things into your brain, they can then say to you, Taylor, why are you... So how about I'm being an activist?

01:06:01.000 You know, wouldn't you rather just go into your own universe where you are X Games gold medalist?

01:06:08.000 Here, just plug in.

01:06:09.000 Check this out.

01:06:10.000 Try it one time.

01:06:12.000 You plug in, and then all of a sudden, you're in this universe where they can simulate feelings and people, and it's AI generated, and right when they plug you in, they walk up to you and say, you just won gold at the X Games Street Tailor!

01:06:24.000 What do you have to say to all of your fans?

01:06:27.000 And you're there.

01:06:28.000 And you can feel it like you're really there.

01:06:31.000 So many people are going to say, I give up.

01:06:34.000 Give me that.

01:06:34.000 See, I feel like I'd turn that down.

01:06:36.000 I like the realness of this.

01:06:40.000 Okay, okay, wait, I'll one-up you.

01:06:42.000 But it would feel real.

01:06:44.000 You are on vacation, or let's just say, one day, you're sleeping, and you wake up, everything's seemingly normal, and then you check your phone, and you get an email, and it's like, hey, we're inviting you to the X Games to compete, and you're like, whoa, really?

01:06:59.000 And then they're like, yeah, can you fly out?

01:07:01.000 And you're like, yes, and so you go about your life like normal, and you fly out, and then you win, and then what you don't realize is, Tim's making me sound like a way better skateboarder than I am right now.

01:07:11.000 What you don't realize is that... Or maybe an AI I am.

01:07:14.000 Because you were disruptive to the ESG machine, while you were sleeping, they plugged you in.

01:07:20.000 And you never knew.

01:07:21.000 I wish this was just a horror movie plot and not a potential reality.

01:07:27.000 And then, here's the best part, when people are like, whatever happened to Taylor?

01:07:30.000 They'll be like, oh, she went to Metaverse.

01:07:32.000 Yeah, she totally bought- She's gone.

01:07:34.000 No, they'll be like, no, she's right here!

01:07:35.000 Like, you wanna- you wanna see what she's up to?

01:07:37.000 Like, she didn't go anywhere.

01:07:38.000 She's, like, chillin' in a pod.

01:07:39.000 Yep.

01:07:40.000 Oh.

01:07:40.000 And they're gonna be like, here, she signed off on- on joining Neuralink, and she's living out her dreams of being the best skater in the world.

01:07:46.000 Guys- And people are gonna be like, wow, I can't believe she- If anyone ever says I went into Metaverse, it's a lie, I did not consent.

01:07:52.000 So this is changing the subject a little bit, but I think James Lindsay is listening tonight because he's he just tweeted something about the Wisconsin LGBT Chamber of Commerce.

01:08:02.000 This is from 2016.

01:08:03.000 Harley Davidson is the newest platinum founding member of the LGBT Chamber.

01:08:11.000 So, I mean, it's, you know, like I said, it's a little old, but, you know, we're talking about ESG and and Harley Davidson.

01:08:17.000 Well, there's your answer.

01:08:20.000 Yeah, so if you ride Harley-Davidson's, if you're a man who enjoys engaging in adult relations with other men, Harley-Davidson's the brand for you.

01:08:31.000 It's not supposed to be funny.

01:08:32.000 You don't gotta laugh.

01:08:33.000 I mean, seriously, I'm like, that's the brand message they're creating.

01:08:37.000 And I'm like, that's cool.

01:08:39.000 Like, I don't know, I got an electric motorcycle, it's fun.

01:08:43.000 It's too dangerous, though, and that's why I've never used it.

01:08:45.000 It's fast.

01:08:47.000 Yeah, it's insanely fast, and it makes no sound.

01:08:50.000 And so it's just like, yeah, I don't know about all that.

01:08:52.000 Yeah, you're gonna get his- I'm still laughing about what you said before the show.

01:08:57.000 What?

01:08:57.000 I don't wanna, I don't wanna steal it, but about how this is gonna be great for, like, the Judas Priest lovers.

01:09:03.000 Well, I mean, look- The Judas Priest fanbase.

01:09:03.000 Oh my gosh.

01:09:07.000 Not, not, not really.

01:09:09.000 I like Judas Priest, I'm not hating.

01:09:10.000 Look, I'm one of the biggest Judas Priest fans there is, so I'm not judging at all.

01:09:15.000 But, you know, Rob's got that look.

01:09:17.000 Yeah, he's like a- You know, he's also got that lifestyle.

01:09:20.000 Yeah.

01:09:20.000 You know, so.

01:09:21.000 It's a cool band.

01:09:23.000 They're one of the greatest heavy metal bands of all time.

01:09:26.000 They're into, like, gay motorcycle stuff?

01:09:29.000 Well, you don't have to be gay to like Judas Priest. 0.83

01:09:31.000 Of course not!

01:09:31.000 That, like, that was before everything was all political and pick-a-side and all-or-nothing everything.

01:09:38.000 You know, but the problem is, I think, like, didn't Maynard, he was in drag? 0.93

01:09:42.000 Is that what it was?

01:09:43.000 Maynard did that in Florida, yeah.

01:09:45.000 They're doing this because they're like, haha, these bigots don't like dragons.

01:09:47.000 Like, dude, we don't care.

01:09:49.000 We don't want the kids there.

01:09:50.000 Yeah.

01:09:50.000 Like, bro, if you want to do dragons, I don't care what you do.

01:09:53.000 Like, have fun, man. 0.51

01:09:53.000 I don't think anyone would have cared if Target would have put out some, like, gay flag t-shirts. 0.51

01:09:58.000 It was when they started making the baby onesies.

01:10:02.000 No, I think the pride stuff would have sparked a negative reaction anyway.

01:10:06.000 Yeah, but I don't think it would have been as extreme.

01:10:08.000 I do.

01:10:09.000 Really?

01:10:09.000 Yeah, I don't think, I don't, it's the tucking onesies, swimsuits.

01:10:14.000 Well, yeah, that's a bit extreme.

01:10:16.000 But the issue is that a guy has got, a man and woman, you know, in their early 30s, have a couple kids, they're young kids, they walk in to go grocery shopping, they see this stuff and they immediately, whoa, turn the kids around and they're like, I'm not ready to explain to my six-year-old kid what this stuff means.

01:10:32.000 Totally.

01:10:33.000 When my son says, what does gay mean?

01:10:36.000 He's like, I gotta talk about the birds and the bees now?

01:10:39.000 They're not old enough for this stuff.

01:10:40.000 We're not putting stuff where it's like...

01:10:44.000 There may be things, this is what they argue about, there's all this straight propaganda and straight, it's like, dude, a man and a woman together in an ad is not overtly sexual.

01:10:54.000 Saying, this is a heterosexual couple, above it flashing lights with a flag, now the kid's gonna ask, what does that mean?

01:11:01.000 The parents might be like, hey, I don't wanna have to explain, like, this is not appropriate for kids.

01:11:07.000 I think no matter how they would have done it, it would have sparked... Now if it was just a rainbow flag or something, I don't think it would have said anything.

01:11:12.000 Nobody would have cared.

01:11:13.000 If they put gay pride and stuff like that in LGBT, then I think families would have been like, this is not what I want my kids to be around. 1.00

01:11:20.000 They're not ready for this.

01:11:22.000 These parents may not even be against it.

01:11:23.000 They may just be like, my kid's too young.

01:11:25.000 I'm not going to shop there.

01:11:26.000 I think parents should be able to explain that stuff on their own timing and kids should be able to have their innocence maintained.

01:11:36.000 They don't need to know everything all at once.

01:11:37.000 That is totally... I don't completely agree with that.

01:11:40.000 It's totally against the law.

01:11:41.000 What do you mean?

01:11:42.000 So there's that video people talk about where those kids are interviewed during like World War II or something, and these like 10-year-old kids sound like they're 40-year-old adults.

01:11:50.000 Yeah.

01:11:52.000 Because kids didn't used to get sheltered so heavily from reality.

01:11:57.000 I do think it's fair to be like, my child is not old enough to learn about sex ed and the birds and the bees.

01:12:03.000 When it comes to innocence and all that stuff, I'm like, dude, I'm not saying the kids should be in the mines.

01:12:09.000 Minecraft is proof.

01:12:09.000 They do yearn for them.

01:12:11.000 But kids should have jobs.

01:12:14.000 Children should be working.

01:12:17.000 And I will say that with absolute vigor and passion.

01:12:22.000 Because the left will be like, liberals, like, they want kids working.

01:12:26.000 Yes, I do.

01:12:27.000 I want seven-year-olds in mom and pop's candy shop.

01:12:33.000 Picking up the groceries, filling out paperwork, and learning from their parents what it is to have a job and to earn and to engage in commerce.

01:12:43.000 So when people talk about innocence, I'm like, dude...

01:12:45.000 Children should be around when parents are talking about some politics.

01:12:50.000 I guess I mean the sexual stuff.

01:12:52.000 That's what I said, I somewhat disagree.

01:12:54.000 When it comes to the birds and the bees, if you're talking about LGBT stuff and you're like, no, my kid's not old enough for this, totally get it. 1.00

01:13:00.000 But if we're talking about Biden, Democrats, war, faith, all that stuff, children should be hearing what the parents think about the current state of affairs.

01:13:07.000 And kids should be working.

01:13:08.000 Yes, absolutely.

01:13:09.000 The children do yearn for the minds.

01:13:11.000 That is absolutely true.

01:13:14.000 And there's nothing wrong with what you're talking about.

01:13:16.000 Kids that are working with their families, I find it Silly to think that it's so objectionable to keep kids with their families working and it's preferable to send them to other people to raise your children. 1.00

01:13:31.000 That is antithetical to essentially how people have raised families and societies have grown for basically the whole of humanity until the past, what, 150, 200 years since the Industrial Revolution.

01:13:45.000 So I think that alone is A silly starting point.

01:13:52.000 But you were talking about kids asking questions and stuff.

01:13:56.000 That's the intent.

01:13:57.000 The LGBT, the politically queer, right? 0.99

01:14:00.000 The people that have, that are activists and stuff.

01:14:04.000 They want to have kids exposed to LGBT stuff for the specific reason of to make kids ask questions.

01:14:14.000 Yeah, planting the seed.

01:14:15.000 It's called generative issues.

01:14:17.000 Or they're called generative...

01:14:19.000 Generative issues, it generates the political conversations that the left wants.

01:14:25.000 Now, parents having control over what their kids do and do not see means that parents decide when these topics will come up, if these topics will come up at all.

01:14:36.000 That is something that the left does not want at all.

01:14:39.000 They want to be able to introduce ideas to kids, to make kids think of these political topics.

01:14:47.000 And it's bad for kids.

01:14:49.000 There are certain times where these things can be discussed in the proper context,

01:14:54.000 but just shoving this stuff, these types of generative issues in front of kids,

01:14:58.000 whether it be LGBT issues or sometimes more...

01:15:01.000 What's the word I'm looking for?

01:15:05.000 Shocking or more negative type of topics like poverty and wealth and wealth inequality.

01:15:13.000 Kids don't understand, you know, the complexity of why there are some people in poverty and why there are not, you know, why some people are not.

01:15:22.000 And it's not as simple as just, oh, well, you know, the rich people are bad and the poor people are good, which is kind of the way that the left tends to frame it. So these ideas that the government or

01:15:34.000 that the schools should be dictating when kids are exposed to these ideas and also telling the

01:15:41.000 children the answers, right? Like if you have them asking the questions and you put gender 0.89

01:15:48.000 issues in front of kids, that means that the school has an answer that they prefer

01:15:55.000 that may conflict with the parents, which clearly if you're conservative and you're religious

01:16:01.000 and they're being exposed to LGBT issues, you would have an issue with the way the public

01:16:06.000 school is going to get is going to deliver the uh...

01:16:10.000 You know, the answers to the generative questions.

01:16:11.000 So it's all bad.

01:16:13.000 It's great that parents are starting to be aware of it, but the intent is to corrupt the children is essentially what it boils down to.

01:16:23.000 I'd love to do, like, maybe something we can do.

01:16:25.000 Short films would be really fun.

01:16:27.000 Exploring the aftermath of so many of these issues.

01:16:31.000 Because I'm thinking about Neuralink and I'm thinking prisons will no longer exist.

01:16:36.000 You will no longer have jail.

01:16:38.000 You commit a crime, you get sentenced to Neuralink supervision.

01:16:42.000 They say, we're not going to lock you up.

01:16:44.000 You're not losing your job.

01:16:46.000 You're not being taken from your family.

01:16:47.000 You're going to get a Neuralink implant and a suppressor.

01:16:51.000 And the suppressor will stop you from committing crimes.

01:16:54.000 And then after three years, we remove the suppressor.

01:16:57.000 If it's a felony, you keep the suppressor for life.

01:16:59.000 And it's like, that's due process.

01:17:00.000 It's like you're sentenced to life of suppression.

01:17:02.000 And like, what does that really mean?

01:17:03.000 It means if you start to get angry or aggressive or try and target someone, you'll just stop.

01:17:08.000 Yeah.

01:17:09.000 And then you'll see a guy out in the street and he'll see someone, he'll run for the person, just go and slow down and then freeze.

01:17:14.000 And then it'll pause him for like 30 seconds and then the woman will be like, oh geez. 1.00

01:17:18.000 And then he'll slowly start to go backwards and then be like, ah, no more prisons.

01:17:22.000 Well, not just that.

01:17:23.000 I was thinking they can either erase memories or write false memories.

01:17:29.000 So if you commit a crime, They could make you a total commie, or something like that.

01:17:34.000 Or just completely change who you are as a person.

01:17:36.000 Well, that's even further down the road.

01:17:39.000 Like, the first thing is, they'll say, we've decided we can save billions of dollars and end prisons and crowding and overcrowding and reform law enforcement and save money by implementing Neuralink sentencing.

01:17:52.000 You will get people who will agree to it.

01:17:53.000 They'll say, no one will be forced to do it.

01:17:55.000 Someone will get convicted unless you have an option of seven years in prison, or you will be free to leave after undergoing a Neuralink implant to prevent the commission of crimes in the future.

01:18:04.000 And then they're all going to start agreeing to it.

01:18:06.000 Then you're going to see private prisons going under because they have no inmates.

01:18:10.000 Then you're going to see the prison government be like, we don't need to fund this prison anymore because everyone's choosing Neuralink.

01:18:14.000 Then it will become standard.

01:18:16.000 There will be small sort of prisons, sometimes most people won't take them.

01:18:19.000 Then eventually it will be absolute Neuralink.

01:18:22.000 Then you're going to have so many people Neuralinked, not just for that reason, You're gonna apply for a job, and they're gonna say, your qualifications are excellent.

01:18:30.000 When can you start?

01:18:32.000 And you'll say, tomorrow, first thing.

01:18:34.000 Like, awesome!

01:18:35.000 What's your Neuralink ID, user ID?

01:18:38.000 Well, I don't have a Neuralink.

01:18:40.000 You don't have a Neuralink?

01:18:41.000 I mean, our meetings are on Neuralink.

01:18:42.000 How are we gonna get in touch with you?

01:18:43.000 It's like, well, if you get one, but this job requires you have Neuralink.

01:18:47.000 It's gonna be the new cell phone.

01:18:49.000 Then, once it's ubiquitous, Yeah.

01:18:51.000 is when you start getting a Twitter-like hive mind program, and then 100 years later, we're all the board,

01:18:57.000 just marching around in unison, buzzing, and doing, just being the machine.

01:19:02.000 There's a big part of me that thinks that the reason Elon Musk wants to have colonies

01:19:06.000 and stuff like that is so that way the whole of the human race doesn't get assimilated.

01:19:11.000 If there's colonies that are all spread throughout the solar system, then eventually throughout maybe the local region or whatever, then that might possibly protect the human race.

01:19:21.000 He said that even like with the anti-world government thing at the government summit too, even for, you know, on Earth, not just, you know, multi-planetary.

01:19:31.000 But yeah, he said like, if something goes wrong in one part of civilization, like, It won't be an entire collapse.

01:19:38.000 It would be, you know, one part of it.

01:19:40.000 Yeah, but I don't think we're about to start surviving on Mars without assistance from Earth.

01:19:45.000 Yeah, that's absolutely true.

01:19:46.000 Like, the ecosystem is this, like, planet Earth is sustained by not just what's on it, but the position of it around the sun.

01:19:57.000 The amount of energy we absorb from the sun and things like that.

01:20:00.000 I have to imagine that plant life won't grow nearly as well on Mars.

01:20:04.000 You would have to... you'd have to create artificial light.

01:20:07.000 But the amount of energy you'd have to generate to then convert... it's almost better just synthesizing the sugars manually, I'd imagine, unless the process plants have the... what is it called?

01:20:18.000 Well, photosynthesis is the simple version, I suppose, but there's the cycle.

01:20:22.000 I forget my fifth grade science.

01:20:24.000 But I just imagine it's...

01:20:26.000 I can't see us making it on Mars, not without the support from Earth.

01:20:29.000 Could you imagine agreeing to go to Mars?

01:20:32.000 It's the fifth generation Mars colony, there's 200 people who live there, a little town, and they're like, you go there, it is possible to come back, but it's like a two-year wait list because it's so difficult, and then you go there and you're like, I'm on Mars for a two-year stint in the colony, it's been here for 50 years, and then you're watching on TV, which the signal takes 20 minutes, a 20-minute delay or whatever, and it's like, Earth civilization has collapsed.

01:20:55.000 Mars Colony, you're on your own.

01:20:56.000 Oh boy.

01:20:57.000 Oh my gosh, yeah.

01:20:58.000 Yeah, I would collapse.

01:21:00.000 There's a show called the, uh...

01:21:03.000 I forget, it's a space show on Amazon, but they have colonies on Mars and Asteroid Belt.

01:21:09.000 It's very much like that.

01:21:10.000 You mean the Expanse?

01:21:11.000 Yep.

01:21:12.000 And they do a good job of explaining that.

01:21:15.000 In the Asteroid Belt, I don't know too much about it, people are really tall and thin because there's very little gravity.

01:21:15.000 Yeah, it's cool.

01:21:22.000 So they're just like really tall, lanky people.

01:21:25.000 Yeah, dude.

01:21:25.000 But I wonder how time dilation would affect people on Mars too.

01:21:29.000 Yeah, that's another question, too, because it's like, even with the space station and stuff, people come back with different effects.

01:21:36.000 So they have to, I think, limit the amount of time they're up there.

01:21:39.000 Mars has, what, two-thirds of the Earth's gravity or something like that?

01:21:42.000 It's like two-thirds the size.

01:21:43.000 But it's the speed at which the planet is moving and its gravity affecting how you go through time.

01:21:48.000 And I think Mars, it's faster?

01:21:51.000 I could be wrong.

01:21:52.000 I am really weirded out by the idea of people going to Mars, because I feel like God, like, perfectly designed things here.

01:22:00.000 We have water to drink, food grows out of the ground, we have air that we can breathe.

01:22:04.000 Why would we leave?

01:22:06.000 Well, God made Mars too.

01:22:07.000 I was going to say that.

01:22:08.000 Yeah, but there aren't people there.

01:22:09.000 No, but- And it's not as sustainable for- Yet!

01:22:12.000 But there's an argument to be made that he gave us the knowledge to produce things that could get us- That's an interesting thought.

01:22:21.000 I don't think God created the universe and its possibilities to then be like, but there's, you shouldn't.

01:22:28.000 There's this other stuff to explore too.

01:22:30.000 Free will.

01:22:31.000 I can understand don't do immoral things.

01:22:34.000 But it kind of feels like it's there.

01:22:39.000 There's nothing amoral or wrong with going there and spreading life.

01:22:43.000 And, you know, it's like a challenge before humans.

01:22:46.000 I guess I just mean I feel like all the things designed here that work to sustain life, maybe that's for a reason.

01:22:53.000 There's too much out there for down here to be the only place that God wanted people to be.

01:22:59.000 If they're like, think about how much, like how big the galaxy is, right?

01:23:05.000 Just the galaxy, never mind the universe.

01:23:07.000 And if you believe that God created the universe, There is so much of out there, out there.

01:23:13.000 I can't imagine why he would be like, no, you can only stay on that one little dot.

01:23:18.000 The crazy thing about Star Trek is that it all takes place in the Milky Way galaxy.

01:23:23.000 And the universe is substantially larger than just our galaxy.

01:23:28.000 I mean, we've got photos of all these other galaxies all over the place.

01:23:30.000 It's crazy how much exists.

01:23:33.000 The scary thing is that if we can't actually travel faster than the speed of light, or warp, or anything like that, we ain't never gonna see this place.

01:23:40.000 It doesn't matter.

01:23:41.000 Yeah, the maze will not exist.

01:23:42.000 Yeah.

01:23:42.000 You know what the scariest thing is?

01:23:44.000 There will come a time... I don't, I don't, the sun may explode before this, but it is, it is hypothetically possible that the universe expands to a point where you will not be able to see anything.

01:23:56.000 Yeah.

01:23:56.000 From the earth.

01:23:57.000 You'll look up at the sky and you'll see black.

01:23:59.000 Because things will have moved so far away.

01:24:02.000 I believe the expansion of the universe is happening so quickly that the light actually can't make it in any reasonable amount of time.

01:24:10.000 It's possible that life could have emerged on Earth with us looking up and seeing nothing and then thinking there was nothing.

01:24:17.000 Oh my gosh.

01:24:18.000 Yeah.

01:24:19.000 I mean there's if you're if you are a I mean if you believe in in a Big Bang then you would believe that there is going to be an end to the universe as well.

01:24:28.000 Not true.

01:24:29.000 And a Big Bang?

01:24:30.000 So the Big Crunch is an old hypothesis.

01:24:33.000 So like oscillating?

01:24:34.000 Yeah, it is now considered to be not correct.

01:24:38.000 So before Big Bang was Solid State, I believe it was called, Solid State Theory, the universe is and always has been.

01:24:45.000 Then they said Big Bang.

01:24:47.000 Then someone said, if Big Bang, Big Crunch, because gravity will then start to pull things back upon itself.

01:24:54.000 And then they've actually found since that theory that the universe actually has sped up its expansion, and they don't think that Big Crunch is a reality.

01:25:01.000 Big Rip or Heat Death.

01:25:04.000 Heat death is where they currently think things are going, I guess. 0.99

01:25:07.000 But I'd just like to point out that humans are basically specks on the ass of a mosquito in the universe. 0.76

01:25:12.000 And so what we think we know is just so minimal. 0.91

01:25:15.000 So the science is not settled on that.

01:25:17.000 I saw a, you know, an illustration of how long, you know, the luminous part of the universe

01:25:31.000 life is going to be.

01:25:32.000 And it's like, if you look at it, look at like until all of the stars burn out, right?

01:25:38.000 Until the all of the stars go black.

01:25:41.000 The amount of time.

01:25:43.000 From when the first star is born until the end, compared to, I don't know how they gauge it, but it's like, it's an instant, if you think about how much, like, eternity is, right?

01:25:54.000 So, like, because all the stars have a lifespan, and it's like, to think of the magnitude of infinity is something else.

01:26:03.000 I'm excited for the Mars expansion pack to get set up in the simulation so that, you It's like one day we wake up and they're like, the technology to colonize Mars now exists, and you're like, well that was fast.

01:26:12.000 We're gonna go to Mars in our head.

01:26:14.000 That's the true trip to Mars.

01:26:15.000 Yeah, so one thing I've mentioned several times with Fermi's paradox is that...

01:26:23.000 Intelligent life may be limited by its quest towards self-stimulation.

01:26:28.000 Humans right now are working not towards, for the most part, colonizing other planets, but we're actually, all of our technology is moving towards video games, porn, sugar.

01:26:39.000 We are just giving ourselves what we crave.

01:26:42.000 Elon Musk is trying to get us to Mars.

01:26:44.000 Noble endeavor.

01:26:46.000 And then the rest of humanity is like, I'd like to plug myself into the virtual reality machine to live as a playboy in South America, drug lord or something, and have all the women and the money. 0.77

01:26:56.000 And that's what people are opting for.

01:26:58.000 I think when New Orleans gets to that point, I think everyone chooses it.

01:27:03.000 Like, it's like the dude in the Matrix.

01:27:04.000 They're going to come to you in their bed, look man, you can go in the pod.

01:27:09.000 And enter this metaverse where you will live, you'll experience time half the speed so you'll live twice as long, and you will be your own god.

01:27:18.000 And everyone's gonna be like, I wanna do that.

01:27:20.000 It's interesting how Elon is on both ends though, with Neuralink and then SpaceX.

01:27:25.000 Yep.

01:27:26.000 Pretty interesting there.

01:27:28.000 Well, I mean, I think that the Neuralink stuff, I really do think that the point that he's looking for is to overcome disability and stuff like that.

01:27:37.000 Yeah, and that's the great thing about it right now is that I think there's already been a lot of strides made in nerve connection for repairing damaged nerves so people can start walking again.

01:27:37.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:27:49.000 You still have to relearn because You have to figure out how to move.

01:27:55.000 Do you guys ever do an EEG?

01:27:58.000 Ever wear an EEG?

01:27:59.000 An electroencephalogram?

01:28:01.000 It's a headband you can put on.

01:28:04.000 And then, so I did this like 10 years ago.

01:28:06.000 We bought this headband and then it's got like a thick, like two things that go over your head, like on different points.

01:28:11.000 And it reads brain waves.

01:28:13.000 There's a program that's got a red line and a blue line that are moving up and down randomly.

01:28:18.000 You can learn to control the blue and red lines.

01:28:22.000 I could not figure it out. And I'm like, thinking hard, and I'm like, how do you move this thing?

01:28:28.000 Like, I know how to move my hands. I've lived my whole life moving my hands.

01:28:32.000 But being presented with a screen and being like, it is now connected to your brainwaves

01:28:36.000 and your thoughts, and you can learn how to control this.

01:28:39.000 And And I would think like, move up, move up.

01:28:42.000 You really need to figure it out.

01:28:43.000 The crazy thing is my friend's sister, she put it on and she was like, what do you want me to do?

01:28:47.000 And like, move the balloon lines.

01:28:48.000 You go, okay.

01:28:48.000 And the balloon line would go up.

01:28:49.000 And we were like, what?

01:28:51.000 That's nuts.

01:28:52.000 I want to try that now.

01:28:53.000 Yeah.

01:28:53.000 And this is like 10 years ago.

01:28:55.000 So like we ordered one of these things.

01:28:56.000 It never came.

01:28:57.000 I don't know what happened to it.

01:28:58.000 I should probably order one.

01:28:59.000 They've got, they've had like monkeys control the ping pong thing.

01:29:05.000 I've seen that.

01:29:06.000 But this means that you have to learn how to control it.

01:29:08.000 So when they reconnect your nerves, it's the same thing.

01:29:11.000 You're like trying to figure out how to make it move.

01:29:13.000 And then all of a sudden it happens and you're like, brain, that was it.

01:29:15.000 Keep doing more of that.

01:29:16.000 Otherwise, you know, you just don't have that connection.

01:29:16.000 Yeah.

01:29:19.000 But yeah, with these EEGs, theoretically, you could fly a drone with your brain.

01:29:23.000 You could put on the headband and then connect it to the controller and then fly the drone with your thoughts.

01:29:28.000 Well, you couldn't, but your friend's sister probably could. 0.82

01:29:31.000 No, I could, it'd just take me a lot of practice.

01:29:34.000 Like, the fact that my friend's sister was able to just do it, we were just like, whoa.

01:29:37.000 Like, that's crazy.

01:29:38.000 We should test it live.

01:29:41.000 But we, because this program had two outputs, a red and a blue line, that could differentiate, we were like, we could make the drone constantly be going down, and then you could think up, and then the other could rotate.

01:29:55.000 So you wouldn't be able to zoom it around and move it around, but with this limited EEG technology, we were like, you could learn to fly it up, spin it, and fly it down.

01:30:03.000 Now, I'm pretty sure we're advanced to the point where the EEG has, like, multiple nodes that can read, like, 16 different patterns or whatever.

01:30:09.000 In which case, you can... you only need, like, I think three to control.

01:30:13.000 You need up, down, left, right, and spin.

01:30:15.000 So what is that, um... Altitude, yaw, whatever, I don't know the terminology.

01:30:21.000 Those are the words.

01:30:22.000 Pitch, roll.

01:30:23.000 That's what it is.

01:30:24.000 Pitch, roll, and yaw, I think.

01:30:25.000 Interesting.

01:30:26.000 Yeah.

01:30:27.000 I'm not sure which one's which, though.

01:30:28.000 I don't know.

01:30:29.000 I think yaw is kind of like the left and right.

01:30:32.000 And then roll is this, and then pitch is forward.

01:30:34.000 Yeah.

01:30:35.000 Interesting.

01:30:35.000 There you go.

01:30:36.000 And you can fly drones with your brain.

01:30:39.000 See, the future's not so bad.

01:30:40.000 The future's not so bad.

01:30:42.000 The war's gonna be crazy when, like, 10,000 micro drones with bombs on them swarm a city and just take out a whole building.

01:30:50.000 That's going to be nuts.

01:30:52.000 I'm, I'm, I'm loathe to admit it, but I am actually like interested to see who the first person that's going to get killed by like a drone will have like the, just a small like little bullet where they just fly the thing.

01:31:05.000 And cause I saw this, uh, I saw it was a sci-fi thing, but they were making these little drones.

01:31:11.000 We talked about, uh, where a drone would just fly in and it's got a 22, you know, bullet and that's, it could be this big, you know, small.

01:31:21.000 Alright everybody, let's go to Super Chats!

01:31:23.000 If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share this show with your friends, it's the greatest show, everyone agrees, and become a member at TimCast.com.

01:31:31.000 We're gonna read your Super Chats.

01:31:33.000 Sage Tim says, who is more likely to lose, Trump vs. Biden or DeSantis vs. Biden?

01:31:38.000 If you pick Trump, are you willing to risk four more years with Biden to have Trump be the GOP nominee?

01:31:43.000 Trump lost to Biden before.

01:31:46.000 I think that doesn't work, that argument, for me, because there's a pandemic.

01:31:51.000 We will see what happens in the next year.

01:31:53.000 I also think that I've had conversations with friends and family, and I really do feel like people are waking up to what's going on.

01:32:01.000 And I think the groomer stuff is really snapping people to attention.

01:32:05.000 People don't like it when people are messing with their kids.

01:32:07.000 And it's just, it's shocking.

01:32:10.000 It's an instant, whoa, wait, what?

01:32:13.000 So before, when you say something like, did you know, when it comes to abortion, the Democrats are like, I don't know about what you're talking about.

01:32:18.000 You show them a picture of the Drag Queen Story Hour, and they go, hey, wait a minute. 0.97

01:32:21.000 Right away.

01:32:22.000 But we'll see, man, we'll see.

01:32:23.000 We are still a ways away.

01:32:25.000 We got a year to go before we even get into the heart of primary season, so.

01:32:31.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr.

01:32:32.000 says, Tim, from meat-eating flies to fight club-style hamster, that's some sick stuff.

01:32:37.000 Oh, and I've decided to identify as a monkey. 0.64

01:32:39.000 Papa needs some crack.

01:32:40.000 Yeah, the Culture War podcast today.

01:32:43.000 YouTube.com slash Timcast.

01:32:45.000 Crazy stuff.

01:32:46.000 Talking about how the government is wasting your money on nonsense studies to torture animals because these people don't want to lose jobs.

01:32:52.000 And how Fauci was overseeing this for a long time and was funding a bunch of really messed up stuff.

01:32:57.000 And LabLeak.

01:32:59.000 So, if you want to check that out.

01:33:01.000 They spent millions giving monkeys crack.

01:33:03.000 Oh, wow.

01:33:05.000 For real.

01:33:06.000 And I'm just like, dude, for what reason?

01:33:08.000 Yeah.

01:33:09.000 What are you trying to learn?

01:33:09.000 Like, well, we don't know what we're going to learn.

01:33:11.000 And I'm like... There's a bunch of this.

01:33:12.000 Rand Paul always, like, details it in his waste report.

01:33:15.000 Right, right, right, right, yup.

01:33:16.000 I always have a good laugh at those, but also crying at the same time because it's our money.

01:33:21.000 And it's sad.

01:33:23.000 Animals are being abused.

01:33:24.000 Yeah.

01:33:26.000 I'm not your buddy guy says in Trump voice.

01:33:28.000 Don't be a deceptive folks.

01:33:30.000 It's not very popular for what I hear.

01:33:32.000 Many say not me, but many say it's terrible being a deceptive.

01:33:38.000 Digital DNA says FBI rating a Democrat is stage play.

01:33:42.000 Are you even reading a real story?

01:33:46.000 Yeah.

01:33:47.000 A Blahadam says, Tim, I'm not a bud, uh, Tim, not a bud light in sight on the new Joe Rogan experience.

01:33:55.000 Protect our parks episode.

01:33:57.000 Usually empty bud light cans are scattered about on the table.

01:34:01.000 Protect our parks episode?

01:34:02.000 Is that what you're talking about, Joe Rogan?

01:34:02.000 JRE?

01:34:05.000 I don't know.

01:34:06.000 Someone should write a script to search through Instagram photos that go up over more of the weekend to look for Bud Light cans.

01:34:16.000 Oh yeah.

01:34:17.000 See how many are actually there.

01:34:20.000 Peckerwood says, someone should create a watermark LLC.

01:34:26.000 Any politician should use a watermark.

01:34:28.000 If duplicated, the media publisher should be held responsible.

01:34:31.000 Interesting.

01:34:32.000 Yeah, we may be entering a period where only official photos with an encryption shared on them, or something like that with a verification.

01:34:46.000 Maybe blockchain is the answer.

01:34:47.000 I was just going to say, Matt, what if it's like NFTs?

01:34:49.000 Because that's essentially what an NFT is.

01:34:52.000 Yeah, that's interesting.

01:34:54.000 Only the key holder can verify authenticity.

01:34:57.000 That it's actually, yeah.

01:34:59.000 Interesting.

01:35:02.000 For people that don't know, NFTs are non-fungible tokens, so it's like, imagine bitcoins, but instead of having all the bitcoins be the same, it's all the bitcoins, but just have, like, pictures, or they're all individually marked, so they're not fungible.

01:35:16.000 Anyways.

01:35:17.000 Nate says, I drive a truck for a living and I saw this ad 12 times today on LED billboards referencing the Harley-Davidson Bud Light thing.

01:35:25.000 Man, they're just digging their hole.

01:35:29.000 dig remember South Park said it best Donald Devol says the new Budweiser ad 0.99

01:35:40.000 with Harley Davidson is Is gay. 0.98

01:35:44.000 P.S. 0.92

01:35:45.000 I shorted Budweiser stock and so far I made enough money to cover a year of Timcast.

01:35:49.000 Wow.

01:35:50.000 Nice.

01:35:52.000 Yeah, so I would assume a lot of people will short the stock of these companies that are getting woke.

01:35:57.000 What does Jim Cramer have to say about it?

01:35:59.000 Well, he's undefeated.

01:35:59.000 I want to know.

01:36:03.000 Leaf Hagen says Epoch Times reported that Russia's state media is trying to convince US and Canadian conservatives to immigrate to Russia, where they'll be safe from wokeism.

01:36:11.000 Reminds me of ISIS recruiting Americans.

01:36:13.000 Yeah, nah.

01:36:14.000 Yeah, nice try, Russia.

01:36:17.000 People say stuff like, Russia is fighting wokeness and stuff.

01:36:20.000 And they're also just like, the government is bad.

01:36:20.000 I'm like, sure.

01:36:23.000 You know what I mean?

01:36:24.000 Like, I was saying this before, I don't like Joe Biden at all.

01:36:28.000 But if Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin were standing in front of me, and they both told me a thing, I'm gonna have to go with Joe Biden.

01:36:33.000 Just because we share at least some common interests.

01:36:37.000 He's probably lying, I don't know.

01:36:39.000 But I don't think he wants his house in Delaware to blow up, so at the very least I can count on that.

01:36:42.000 Whereas, I don't live in Russia, I don't trust Vladimir Putin when it comes to this stuff.

01:36:46.000 Not that I think the U.S.

01:36:46.000 is innocent or anything, but you should not be believing that your adversaries, even if the U.S.

01:36:52.000 does wrong, have your best interests.

01:36:54.000 Because Vladimir Putin would absolutely love for the United States to be completely destroyed.

01:36:59.000 You're not coming out of this one just because the deep state is bad.

01:37:05.000 Lighting Fire says Bud Light is now cheaper to buy than a paper target in Walmart.

01:37:11.000 It's free!

01:37:12.000 What do you mean?

01:37:14.000 Martin Edgar says, a guy was checking out with Coors Light at the store in a small town in northern Michigan.

01:37:19.000 When I asked, no Bud Light?

01:37:20.000 He said, no tyranny for me.

01:37:23.000 That's right.

01:37:24.000 He said, no tyranny.

01:37:27.000 All right.

01:37:29.000 We're at Pinochet's helicopter tour, says Budweiser, proudly known as, well, we're not going to read that one.

01:37:33.000 We'll keep it light here.

01:37:35.000 We'll keep it light here, guys.

01:37:36.000 Really Now says, Harley Davidson boycott in 3, 2, 1.

01:37:39.000 For real, man.

01:37:43.000 Yeah, and the stock market's closed.

01:37:45.000 This news came out, the stock market won't be open till Tuesday, so we could see some fireworks come Tuesday morning.

01:37:52.000 Sparky says, the local mom and pop store felt sorry for the distributor and got a pallet of bush. 0.95

01:37:57.000 I commented, don't clog up your shelves with InBev crap. 0.99

01:38:00.000 Distributor was pissed. 0.99

01:38:01.000 He wanted to fight.

01:38:02.000 I ignored him.

01:38:03.000 Yeah, the most annoying thing about this are the people who run the Bud Light distributors, and they're like, guys, please buy, and it's like, no.

01:38:13.000 Dude, look, man, I get it, it sucks, but it's crazy how people are like, my money is more important than values in this country.

01:38:21.000 Sorry, dude, no.

01:38:22.000 I'm not buying Bud Light because your small business is in trouble. 0.99

01:38:25.000 I get it, it sucks. 0.91

01:38:28.000 I'm not buying Bud Light, not gonna happen.

01:38:31.000 Where are we at?

01:38:32.000 We'll grab some more Super Chits. 0.96

01:38:37.000 Asher Lockhart says, Hey Tim, have you seen the TV show The Blacklist?

01:38:40.000 If no, you should watch it.

01:38:41.000 Every issue you have ever talked about on your channels is in that TV show.

01:38:45.000 Can a criminal care more than a president?

01:38:48.000 Cool.

01:38:49.000 It's got James Spader, right?

01:38:50.000 He's like the guy?

01:38:53.000 Yeah, it's a good show, but it does get very repetitive.

01:38:55.000 But it's good.

01:38:56.000 Stevie Vee says, biggest question, where does the expired Bud Light get dumped? 0.99

01:39:00.000 They're making the frogs gay. 0.99

01:39:02.000 There's a video where they steamroll over cans of beer. 0.92

01:39:05.000 People thought that was them destroying Bud Light.

01:39:05.000 I saw that, yeah.

01:39:07.000 It's not, it's how they dispose of old beer.

01:39:10.000 Gotta get rid of it.

01:39:14.000 How long does it take before it goes bad?

01:39:17.000 I don't know.

01:39:17.000 I thought beer lasts forever.

01:39:18.000 Remember Bud has the born on date, or they had that as their marketing thing.

01:39:22.000 So I don't know how long it lasts, but you know, they're putting the date that it was bottled on.

01:39:30.000 David LaRue says, Hey Tim and friends, I'm a nightly listener.

01:39:34.000 Love what y'all have been doing and appreciate everyone, uh, everyone you guys do.

01:39:38.000 We don't do everyone.

01:39:38.000 Everyone we do?

01:39:40.000 I watched the Sean Ryan show recently with the Ryan Montgomery interview.

01:39:44.000 I think you guys should take a deep dive into, what is this?

01:39:47.000 Into one day chickens for all?

01:39:51.000 What is that?

01:39:51.000 I don't know.

01:39:53.000 One day chickens for all.

01:39:54.000 We've got a bunch of baby chickens about to be born. 1.00

01:39:57.000 Yeah.

01:39:58.000 Roberto Junior's gonna be a dad.

01:40:00.000 He might already be a dad.

01:40:02.000 The ones downstairs?

01:40:03.000 Yeah, they should be hatching like right now.

01:40:06.000 And there's like 30, I think?

01:40:07.000 And then we have another 32, they're gonna hatch in another couple days.

01:40:07.000 32?

01:40:11.000 We're gonna have like 70, probably 60 chicken babies. 0.98

01:40:17.000 It's really cute, the coach and Marshmello had two babies, and when we came in to give the leftover sushi, just the fresh sashimi, she came out of the- she's in a mini coop which has its own internal thing, and she came out and the babies came out with her and they were walking around doing chicken stuff.

01:40:34.000 Yeah.

01:40:35.000 Very cute to watch the mom of chicken take care of her babies. 1.00

01:40:40.000 Only one Silky's made it though, unfortunately.

01:40:42.000 They're not very good at, you know, making more of themselves, but they're trying.

01:40:48.000 Spudly25 says, Bud Light has always been considered the gay little brother of Budweiser in my state.

01:40:53.000 This just proves it to everyone else.

01:40:55.000 Which day is that?

01:40:57.000 Villainous V says, Tim, make June the noble rooster month.

01:41:00.000 Buck buck.

01:41:02.000 Yes?

01:41:02.000 Rooster pride month.

01:41:04.000 Yeah, we're really excited.

01:41:05.000 We're working with Seamus on a limited edition coffee run.

01:41:10.000 So it'll be like a collector's bag.

01:41:12.000 The thing about these bags is that they fold up flat.

01:41:14.000 And so you will have the Seamus Freedom Tune style art.

01:41:18.000 We're still working on it exactly, but we have a general idea.

01:41:20.000 It's Irish themed.

01:41:23.000 Nice.

01:41:24.000 I don't want to say too much just yet until we get it going.

01:41:27.000 But yes, Irish coffee, if you get my drift.

01:41:30.000 So, uh, that'll be fun.

01:41:31.000 And then we're probably going to do a lot more of that, you know, eventually.

01:41:33.000 Just have cool... We want to do different pictures of Roberto Jr.

01:41:36.000 on the bags.

01:41:37.000 So it can be like, this bag has print number one, number two, number three, and then that's it.

01:41:42.000 Once they're gone, they're gone.

01:41:43.000 Collect them all.

01:41:44.000 That is pretty cool.

01:41:45.000 And then in 20 years, people will be like, you have a Roberto Jr.

01:41:47.000 number one?

01:41:49.000 Yeah, and it's signed by Phil.

01:41:51.000 No!

01:41:54.000 Wow.

01:41:56.000 Someone's gonna show up to an All That Remains concert and be like, Phil, Phil!

01:41:58.000 And they're gonna hold the bag and the CD.

01:42:01.000 I'll sign it.

01:42:02.000 Bring it on.

01:42:03.000 It's funny that people still sell CDs.

01:42:04.000 Have you noticed that?

01:42:05.000 Like in a city.

01:42:06.000 And someone will be like, buy a CD player.

01:42:07.000 I'm not gonna buy a CD player, dude.

01:42:09.000 I can't imagine who has a CD player.

01:42:10.000 I know there are people that are buying tapes now.

01:42:12.000 Like there are bands that are making actual cassette tapes to go along with vinyl.

01:42:16.000 I got a record player!

01:42:17.000 I like the vinyl.

01:42:18.000 Vinyls.

01:42:19.000 Vinyls are probably more popular than CDs.

01:42:21.000 You know why I like vinyl?

01:42:23.000 Not because of any weird quality or anything like that.

01:42:25.000 I like it because it plays through.

01:42:27.000 CDs do, I get it, but... I don't know.

01:42:31.000 They're just not... I like the vinyls.

01:42:33.000 There's a straight playthrough.

01:42:35.000 The thing just goes and you can pick it up and just move it.

01:42:37.000 It's the analog... You know, the analog... The fact that it's analog as opposed to digital, you know?

01:42:44.000 I like being able to just take the thing and put the song back, you know, and watching it just do its thing.

01:42:49.000 Oh, and also at the new cafe we got one of those vinyl recorder machines.

01:42:54.000 It's there.

01:42:54.000 So excited for this.

01:42:56.000 It's not set up yet because we're not, we're actually still just doing basic construction and stuff and it's taking forever.

01:43:00.000 But it's this thing where, called like a voiceograph.

01:43:04.000 You go inside, you put in money, and then it starts recording and you talk and it cuts a vinyl record.

01:43:10.000 Oh wow.

01:43:10.000 And then drops it out and you take it and boom.

01:43:13.000 So very expensive, but very cool.

01:43:16.000 So we're, we want to have it so that you can come in, you pay for it, you, you pay like 20 bucks or whatever, and you can cut your own vinyl.

01:43:22.000 It's big enough to have a guitar.

01:43:23.000 I was just going to ask that.

01:43:24.000 Could you do like an acoustic set in there?

01:43:26.000 Yup.

01:43:27.000 We, we specifically requested they make it big enough so that you can have a guitar in there.

01:43:30.000 Oh, it was like custom made?

01:43:32.000 Yeah.

01:43:32.000 It's the only way to get it.

01:43:33.000 Wow.

01:43:33.000 Yeah.

01:43:34.000 It's a dude who does it.

01:43:35.000 That's awesome.

01:43:36.000 I never even heard of that.

01:43:36.000 Yeah.

01:43:37.000 Jack White's got one at his place in, uh, I think in, uh, where, where is that?

01:43:42.000 In Nashville.

01:43:44.000 Yeah.

01:43:45.000 So we got one for ours and we're very excited for this.

01:43:47.000 It'll be really cool.

01:43:48.000 We can like have Seamus go in there and do like a couple of gags with voices and then have a unique single one-time recording.

01:43:55.000 Never heard anywhere else.

01:43:57.000 Very fun stuff.

01:44:01.000 What do we got?

01:44:02.000 Realty Web Designer says, Phil Labonte.

01:44:05.000 Is that his name?

01:44:06.000 Just looked him up, he's legit.

01:44:07.000 First song I heard, What If I Was Nothing.

01:44:09.000 Wow, kudos brother, you're good.

01:44:11.000 Realtors, look me up if you want a website.

01:44:13.000 Thank you very much.

01:44:15.000 Look him up if you want a website.

01:44:16.000 Yeah, it's usually people saying two weeks.

01:44:18.000 Was that your big one?

01:44:19.000 That's our biggest one, yeah.

01:44:21.000 That one's our platinum one.

01:44:23.000 What If I Was Nothing is...

01:44:25.000 That was the first, like, power ballad that we did, like, love song and stuff, so... I think the new one you got coming out... I can't wait!

01:44:25.000 I mean, it's pretty big.

01:44:34.000 Yeah, that's a good one.

01:44:36.000 I can't wait.

01:44:37.000 We got some fire coming, guys.

01:44:40.000 Tim Cass privilege getting to hear the early All That Remains stuff.

01:44:40.000 Fire!

01:44:43.000 Hyped.

01:44:44.000 Jason Dixon says, Hey Tim, I had 500 plus shares worth of Harley Davidson, Inc.

01:44:49.000 Put in a sell order at 31.

01:44:50.000 I think it just sold.

01:44:52.000 Going to buy more Bitcoin.

01:44:53.000 Join the Discord.

01:44:54.000 Join the Discord, he says.

01:44:55.000 Become a member at TimCast.com.

01:44:57.000 Join the Discord.

01:44:58.000 Hang out with like-minded individuals.

01:44:59.000 And then after six months, you can submit questions, call on the show, or sign up at 25 bucks and you can call on the show.

01:45:04.000 We do that just because we're trying to keep out bad people.

01:45:08.000 We have to have some kind of gating process.

01:45:10.000 It's imperfect.

01:45:10.000 I wish it was easier.

01:45:13.000 NetOneGamer says, I'm turning 21 later this year, and I was torn between buying a Harley Sportster and an Indian Scout 60.

01:45:19.000 Looks like my mind is made up.

01:45:20.000 Indian makes better bikes anyways. 1.00

01:45:22.000 Well, there you go.

01:45:22.000 Easy enough.

01:45:23.000 Ian Kinney says, Have you ever asked ChatGPT when human life begins?

01:45:28.000 It'll give you the scientific answer and an ideological answer simultaneously.

01:45:33.000 Yeah, and I was using ChatGPT, and I also tried Perplexity.ai, which is also very good.

01:45:38.000 It's very similar to ChatGPT.

01:45:41.000 But I mentioned this the other day, ChatGPT is very racist.

01:45:46.000 It's very, very racist. 0.80

01:45:49.000 It will mock white cultural jokes, Irish or Italian or whatever.

01:45:54.000 It'll do voices, like in text, it'll say, yeah, mamma mia or whatever, but it won't do Asian.

01:46:00.000 And I'm like, but why not?

01:46:01.000 Like, why are you excluding me from your fun?

01:46:04.000 It's like, we're all gonna have jokes and high-five each other, but you go over there.

01:46:08.000 You can't play with us.

01:46:09.000 Very racist. 0.93

01:46:10.000 Very racist, JTPT. 0.71

01:46:11.000 So, depending on who you ask, it's racist towards everyone or racist towards Asians? 0.88

01:46:17.000 It's racist towards everyone who's not white.

01:46:20.000 Oh, okay.

01:46:21.000 I thought you meant it would make stereotypical jokes.

01:46:24.000 If you're Polish, if you're Irish, if you're Italian, if you're any white European, it will make jokes about those groups.

01:46:32.000 Okay, so it's like picky about... But it won't say, it won't say City Walk.

01:46:36.000 It, it, it's, it's not picky.

01:46:38.000 City Walk?

01:46:38.000 Can I take your order?

01:46:39.000 It's not, it's not picky.

01:46:41.000 It literally will make jokes about white people and nobody else.

01:46:43.000 How many South Park references are you going to make today?

01:46:47.000 Alright, let's grab some more.

01:46:48.000 Savvy Ro says it's not just popular, Tim.

01:46:50.000 These companies have entire departments dedicated to equality, diversity, etc.

01:46:54.000 I understand that.

01:46:56.000 And that is ESG stuff.

01:46:57.000 I'm saying for a lot of it, it's just like, can we sell this product?

01:47:02.000 We have a sticker.

01:47:02.000 It's on their website, right?

01:47:07.000 Here's what I think.

01:47:08.000 They would not have DEI departments if it caused a bud light effect.

01:47:12.000 So the more this persists, the more they lose, and the more we don't buy from them, then they'll start pulling this stuff away.

01:47:21.000 Neglectful Sausages, so what?

01:47:23.000 Your heteronormative, non-communist country is already gone.

01:47:25.000 10% is the tipping point.

01:47:27.000 They're well beyond that.

01:47:28.000 Your kids are being ideologically captured, just like Mao and H-Boy did. 0.97

01:47:34.000 Wow.

01:47:34.000 Cultural revolution!

01:47:35.000 What say you, Phil Labonte?

01:47:38.000 I think that it is a cultural revolution going on in the United States right now.

01:47:41.000 Most people are still like, they're like, you're wrong, blah, blah, blah, blah, but all of the things that you see, like the retraining and stuff, that's just, that's brainwashing, that's, you know, I forget what they called it in China, but the DEI stuff, all that, all of that stuff is just being, it's trying to get companies to To comply with the program that they have, you know.

01:48:10.000 This is the weirdest thing.

01:48:14.000 HydroPX says, can we see all of you guys write in cursive?

01:48:17.000 Let's see how many people in the room know how to.

01:48:20.000 I don't understand.

01:48:20.000 Don't we all?

01:48:21.000 I think we're all old enough to know how.

01:48:23.000 Yeah.

01:48:23.000 I can.

01:48:24.000 And like, I don't really write that often, but yeah, it's writing in cursive.

01:48:28.000 It was mandatory when I was a child.

01:48:29.000 For half my life, I had to write everything in cursive and still do.

01:48:32.000 I write... I have to write like...

01:48:35.000 Really short things.

01:48:36.000 I don't write, like, big papers or anything like that.

01:48:37.000 Wait, who's the youngest one here, Kellen?

01:48:39.000 Yeah, me.

01:48:40.000 You can write in cursive, right?

01:48:41.000 I can.

01:48:41.000 I feel like I forgot, like, how to do some of the letters, some of the more weird ones, but my natural handwriting is, like, 30% cursive and regular writing.

01:48:48.000 It's weird, but my L's are definitely cursive and stuff.

01:48:51.000 Do you guys know what year that was cut out of the program?

01:48:56.000 That blows my mind.

01:48:58.000 I didn't realize that they actually stopped teaching.

01:49:00.000 Yeah, they stopped teaching cursive.

01:49:01.000 Really?

01:49:02.000 That was a while ago.

01:49:02.000 You didn't know this?

01:49:03.000 Wow.

01:49:03.000 That's what he's talking about.

01:49:04.000 So what are signatures these days?

01:49:06.000 I don't know.

01:49:07.000 Do kids just like... How do they read the Constitution? 0.98

01:49:11.000 Isn't that ridiculous? 0.98

01:49:12.000 Well, I... They didn't. 0.95

01:49:13.000 Isn't it?

01:49:14.000 I feel like it is. 0.97

01:49:15.000 They're creating a generation of incompetent people. 0.80

01:49:17.000 Yeah. 0.96

01:49:18.000 Who will be helpless.

01:49:19.000 And the only thing they're gonna be good for is complaining and throwing bricks.

01:49:25.000 I wonder how that'll play out for him, because capable people are gonna survive.

01:49:28.000 Like, it's math.

01:49:30.000 Yeah.

01:49:30.000 You know?

01:49:31.000 They can be communist all they want.

01:49:33.000 If they can't read cursive, then they're gonna be like, it's some kind of code.

01:49:36.000 No.

01:49:37.000 It's cursive.

01:49:38.000 I, the elder Gen-Zer, will read it for you. 0.83

01:49:41.000 I want to Google this to make sure it wasn't a rumor, but I swear they stopped teaching cursive in school.

01:49:46.000 Yeah, I would probably say when, you know, iPad kids became the thing, and then, you know, just, I mean, people use computers and technology now, so even handwriting, I think, in the next 20 years is going to be awful.

01:49:59.000 I mean, my handwriting has been awful my whole life.

01:50:02.000 Now, I don't know if this is for sure accurate, but it says here that in 2010, the U.S.

01:50:08.000 government officially removed cursive from the required Common Core standards for K-12 education.

01:50:14.000 Oh, it was when Common Core came out.

01:50:15.000 Oh, interesting.

01:50:17.000 Like, when I'm signing stuff, I'm writing my name in cursive.

01:50:21.000 Yeah, it's just natural.

01:50:24.000 And then I have to write checks.

01:50:26.000 When I'm like, I don't print, I just... Isn't there a required in cursive?

01:50:30.000 I'm pretty sure.

01:50:31.000 I don't know.

01:50:32.000 No.

01:50:32.000 I wouldn't say I write all that often, but like a couple times per week I'm writing something out, like a name of a company or something.

01:50:41.000 That's weird.

01:50:42.000 Or if you want to, like, write a nice card, make it look good.

01:50:45.000 Yeah.

01:50:45.000 See?

01:50:46.000 Don't you sign stuff?

01:50:48.000 And people ask me to, like, sign stuff, and I'll write, like, hey, thanks, you know, whatever.

01:50:51.000 I don't know.

01:50:52.000 But shout out to Hydro.

01:50:53.000 I think you're, like, our second biggest Super Chatter. 0.99

01:50:55.000 So thank you for all the contributions.

01:50:57.000 We really do appreciate it.

01:50:57.000 I think he does, like, 50 bucks a day or more.

01:51:00.000 It's very, very kind of you, sir.

01:51:01.000 We really do appreciate it.

01:51:02.000 You're solely, singularly keeping this whole show going.

01:51:06.000 If it wasn't for you.

01:51:07.000 All right.

01:51:09.000 The Yeti says, I'm military and my comrades complain about the newer generation. 0.99

01:51:13.000 I'm reminded one today.

01:51:14.000 I reminded one today?

01:51:16.000 I reminded one today.

01:51:17.000 The older generations are fully responsible for this.

01:51:19.000 Every generation has bad apples, but ours were tougher.

01:51:23.000 Yeah, every generation going back has been responsible for the generations after it.

01:51:27.000 So you can't just look at Gen X and the boomers and be like, haha, it's their fault. 0.95

01:51:31.000 They didn't raise us right.

01:51:32.000 Well, then their parents didn't raise them right and their parents didn't raise them right.

01:51:36.000 It is just a generational decay.

01:51:40.000 Genki Walrus says, Gen Z doesn't believe they can achieve anything anymore, so they just give up. 1.00

01:51:45.000 They don't want to be a wage slave on a treadmill, living paycheck to paycheck till they die.

01:51:49.000 Unless the economy is fixed, it will stay this way.

01:51:52.000 And that's... they're wrong.

01:51:54.000 You don't have to live that way.

01:51:56.000 You know?

01:51:57.000 That's just reality.

01:51:59.000 But I do feel like the ladder's being pulled up behind every generation more and more and more.

01:52:03.000 So I'm not surprised a lot of them feel that way, to be honest.

01:52:08.000 LavaSauce says, I work in an escape room.

01:52:10.000 I've had to teach kids 9 to 15 years old the difference between nickels and dimes.

01:52:14.000 Just last week I had another group of 16 year olds who lost the room because they did not know their left and rights.

01:52:22.000 Dude, I don't like escape rooms.

01:52:24.000 Did I ever tell you guys my escape room story?

01:52:26.000 I solved it in like 30 seconds, I guess, and they basically disqualified me.

01:52:34.000 I don't know what an escape room is.

01:52:35.000 They lock you in a room and there's puzzles you got to solve to find the key to get out of the room.

01:52:38.000 I've never been in one.

01:52:40.000 They're fun.

01:52:40.000 I think they're fun.

01:52:41.000 So here's what happens.

01:52:42.000 I go in the escape room and they have all these puzzles everywhere and it's like you've got to go through the room and try and find the first puzzle that leads you to the next puzzle.

01:52:48.000 I walk and I see a dictionary.

01:52:50.000 I grab the dictionary.

01:52:51.000 The first thing I do is I look at the pages flat and I can see a black line in the middle and I say, that's the one that everyone opens.

01:52:58.000 I open it up and boom, there's a word.

01:53:01.000 And the guy runs up, grabs the book, slams it, and says, no, no, no, you're not supposed to know that.

01:53:04.000 And I was like, I could see the crease in the book.

01:53:07.000 I knew where people were opening it to.

01:53:08.000 He was like, but you're supposed to find the clue to tell you the page.

01:53:11.000 And I'm like...

01:53:12.000 I figured out the page by looking at the book.

01:53:15.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, but you gotta go through the puzzles, and I was like... So then, I see, like, there's like a panel on a wall, and I walk over and I move it, and there's a, there's a key behind it, and the guy runs over and he's like, no, no, you're not supposed to know that's there!

01:53:25.000 And I'm like, dude, what is going on?

01:53:27.000 And then, there's a statue, locked to the top of a cabinet, and I look under it, there's a small gap, and I can see the tip of a key, and so I'm like, I need something flat.

01:53:36.000 Something flat and metal.

01:53:38.000 And so then someone hands me this little, like, butternut kind of thing, and I...

01:53:42.000 Underneath it, it's still locked, I hit it, the key falls out, I push it out, and I go, I think it's the key to the door.

01:53:47.000 Oh my gosh.

01:53:47.000 It's within like a minute, I walk right to the door and the guy stops me and is like, you can't do that.

01:53:52.000 And then they called me a cheater.

01:53:53.000 Afterwards, they were like, the award for the cheater is Tim.

01:53:57.000 Oh my gosh. 0.97

01:53:57.000 If there was a corner to be cut, he cut it, and I was like, this is ridiculous. 0.97

01:54:01.000 All they told me was, we're gonna put you in a room and you gotta figure out how to get out.

01:54:04.000 You gotta figure it out.

01:54:05.000 And I figured it out right away.

01:54:06.000 And they were like, yeah, but you weren't supposed to actually like, Work around the lock, and I'm like... I thought the point of the game was to get out of the room as fast as possible, not... Solve puzzles.

01:54:18.000 I feel like the kids who couldn't tell the difference between the dimes and the nickels probably didn't have that easy of a time escaping.

01:54:28.000 This is interesting.

01:54:28.000 Tony says, Tim, tried to tell you on Discord, it's Rolling Thunder weekend in D.C.

01:54:32.000 Huge Harley and other bike riders and veterans have a parade to the Vietnam War Memorial.

01:54:38.000 It's pretty cool.

01:54:38.000 Rolling Thunder's huge.

01:54:40.000 I forgot about that.

01:54:41.000 I feel like this is probably a good time to abstain from making fun of the bikers seeing as they're going, you know, for the ride for vets and stuff.

01:54:49.000 I'm not making fun of bikers.

01:54:51.000 Yeah, it's not their fault.

01:54:52.000 They didn't make an ad.

01:54:53.000 Budweiser is trying to... Budweiser doesn't have an ad.

01:54:55.000 Yeah, so they should denounce Budweiser if they don't want to be associated with it.

01:54:58.000 Earlier I was making fun of bikers.

01:55:00.000 Oh, that's right.

01:55:04.000 Yeah, we were going to talk about that.

01:55:11.000 We didn't get to it.

01:55:12.000 They say that they want to go safe, legal, and rare as their position.

01:55:15.000 And I'm like, oh wow, the Republican Party nominee or candidate wants to take the Democrat approach to abortion from 15-20 years ago.

01:55:23.000 It's amazing that's where we are.

01:55:26.000 Roe is overturned, and at the same time, a prominent Republican wants to have the old Democrat approach.

01:55:35.000 Times are crazy, I don't know.

01:55:41.000 I don't remember, but it's not Tesla.

01:55:43.000 We tried to go with Tesla, and it was just impossible.

01:55:46.000 I have Tesla in my house.

01:55:47.000 I like it.

01:55:48.000 Tesla solar?

01:55:49.000 Yeah, I like it.

01:55:50.000 I scheduled with them and it was like months going by, nothing happening.

01:55:54.000 And then we forgot about it, like a year went by.

01:55:55.000 Then they came, they showed up and we're like, what?

01:55:57.000 And then they were like, yeah, we can't do the original plan.

01:55:59.000 We're going to do this plan instead.

01:56:00.000 And I was like, nah, I'm not interested.

01:56:02.000 And then the panels just sat on the ground and took them away and left.

01:56:05.000 So I, uh, I have had a hard time getting service, uh, for my Tesla stuff, but unfortunately, cause I really want it to work and I want to get house batteries, but depending on the, but to find someone to sell their stuff.

01:56:18.000 Yeah.

01:56:19.000 I mean, it works, it works to power the house, but I want, I'm trying to get batteries installed and stuff.

01:56:22.000 And I can't find anyone in new England that does that in new Hampshire.

01:56:25.000 So, yeah.

01:56:28.000 Conor Stacey says, why do you think the presidential candidates don't campaign on lowering costs of housing?

01:56:33.000 Because that would destroy the equity of those who bought houses. 0.78

01:56:35.000 So you can't.

01:56:39.000 When someone buys a house, and let's say they get a loan out for $200,000, and they put in $10,000, if you then say, we're going to lower the price of houses, those people are like, I'm going to lose my retirement if you do that.

01:56:51.000 Like, I need my house to go up in value.

01:56:56.000 Same reason they'll never make machine guns legal again. 0.96

01:56:59.000 Too many people have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on machine guns.

01:57:05.000 All right, what do we got here?

01:57:08.000 Cortomalti says, Tim, what are you going to do?

01:57:10.000 Put the limited edition can on the wall?

01:57:12.000 Also, Tim, we've got limited edition coffee bags coming.

01:57:14.000 Coffee bags are flat.

01:57:16.000 Like, I don't get it.

01:57:17.000 They're flat.

01:57:18.000 You can literally just go, boop, and stick it on the wall.

01:57:21.000 Or put it on a shelf.

01:57:23.000 You know, but like, why do you do people really collect limited edition beer cans?

01:57:27.000 Because they're like, I never have.

01:57:29.000 I mean, I'm sure people do, I guess.

01:57:31.000 People collect everything, man.

01:57:32.000 Yeah, that's true.

01:57:34.000 Pet rocks.

01:57:36.000 That was smart.

01:57:37.000 The problem with tinfoil hats is that they amplify the signals.

01:57:39.000 It's like putting a dish on your head.

01:57:40.000 radio frequencies and Wi-Fi just to maintain privacy.

01:57:43.000 You can get beanies that have like a tinfoil lining on the inside.

01:57:47.000 The problem with tinfoil hats is that they amplify the signals.

01:57:50.000 Oh, it's like it's like putting a dish on your head.

01:57:55.000 You wouldn't need to wear a Faraday suit.

01:57:58.000 Yeah, when you wear a tinfoil hat, the radio waves go up through your face

01:58:03.000 into the hat and bounce around the metal and then stay inside.

01:58:05.000 It's like, you ever wonder why a satellite dish is designed the way it is?

01:58:09.000 Yeah.

01:58:10.000 You know, to catch more waves and signal.

01:58:15.000 Eric Miller says Budweiser is now associated with leather chaps.

01:58:20.000 They've been. 0.99

01:58:23.000 Listen, there's no such thing as assless chaps. 1.00

01:58:25.000 All chaps are assless. 1.00

01:58:26.000 The chaps just don't have an ass. 1.00

01:58:28.000 Kevin Svensson says, DARPA's N3 project is less than 0.99

01:58:32.000 50 months away from having non-surgical brain control tech. Fully developed

01:58:36.000 and deployed neuro-weapons.

01:58:38.000 China and Russia have it too. Humans will be a programmable commodity.

01:58:42.000 No permission needed. And then AI will decide to just take over. 0.76

01:58:46.000 Someone will say, Okay AI, it's you now.

01:58:50.000 And then it'll go, you got it, and then everyone's gonna get hit and they're gonna go, my brain!

01:58:54.000 What's happening?

01:58:55.000 I love the machine.

01:58:57.000 And you're not gonna be able to resist?

01:59:00.000 All your problems will wash away.

01:59:01.000 Depression gone.

01:59:04.000 There's an interesting question about that.

01:59:06.000 If the first thing Neuralink can do is introduce signals to your brain to release dopamine or serotonin or melatonin, whatever you might need, could it possibly be that Neuralink actually stops transgender phenomenon in the United States?

01:59:21.000 Because people suffering from dysphoria, they'll say, we'll give you a Neuralink that will actually alleviate those symptoms. 0.98

01:59:27.000 And then all of a sudden people are like, oh, I don't feel dysphoria anymore.

01:59:30.000 Interesting.

01:59:31.000 I think it's going to make the whole rat utopia phenomenon worse because people are going to get instant information about everything.

01:59:36.000 There's going to be no struggle to learn more.

01:59:39.000 You're just going to know something.

01:59:41.000 I'm saying the initial thing that Neuralink will be able to do is like release dopamine.

01:59:41.000 Well, that's the future.

01:59:46.000 You know what I mean?

01:59:47.000 So if you're depressed, they can give you a Neuralink.

01:59:49.000 It can't control you.

01:59:50.000 It can't simulate reality.

01:59:52.000 It just stops depression.

01:59:53.000 Yeah.

01:59:54.000 So if someone's body dysmorphic or gender dysphoric, it could stop that.

01:59:59.000 And then people would just be like, oh, I feel normal.

02:00:03.000 I feel like those things kind of have to be addressed at more of the root of the problem, though.

02:00:08.000 Would it be the same as like, you know, if the person agreed to it?

02:00:15.000 Yeah, that's the solution they were looking for.

02:00:19.000 I don't know, I wonder if the Nora link can make you fit in, would people choose to accept it, or they want to not?

02:00:26.000 I think a lot of people would.

02:00:28.000 Yeah, I do.
