Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Fake News Blames Trump For Kamala "Birtherism" Article That Came From Newsweek

00:00:00.000 Right now there's a new birtherism, I guess, Conspiracy theory or something ridiculous. 0.97

00:00:31.000 And I think it's outright ridiculous. 0.96

00:00:34.000 But I'll tell you what's really ridiculous. 0.91

00:00:36.000 And as often, I'm always criticizing the media. 0.71

00:00:39.000 They're blaming Donald Trump because he was asked by a member of the press corps about Kamala Harris not being a citizen or something.

00:00:48.000 And he said, I don't know anything about it.

00:00:50.000 And that was it.

00:00:51.000 And now the left is going around, running around, running stories, claiming that Donald Trump is pushing this conspiracy.

00:00:56.000 There's no winning, is there?

00:00:58.000 Donald Trump gets asked a question and he goes, I'm sorry, what?

00:01:01.000 Oh, I heard that today.

00:01:02.000 I don't think about it.

00:01:04.000 And apparently that's that's enough.

00:01:05.000 How's it going, everybody?

00:01:07.000 Before we get into all the news, I want to mention there is an independent journalist.

00:01:12.000 I call whatever you want.

00:01:13.000 I don't I'm not super familiar with Millie Weaver, but I know many people are.

00:01:19.000 And this story has been getting, and is a viral video.

00:01:23.000 This is a woman who was producing a documentary, and the police showed up to her house, and my understanding so far is that her and her husband have been arrested on burglary charges.

00:01:33.000 They were indicted by a grand jury.

00:01:34.000 The reason this is causing, you know, it's spreading around online, I guess it's because she was about to release a documentary, and they're alleging something having to do with you know, secret documents or something. So I think a lot

00:01:46.000 of people are concerned that someone's trying to silence her. But I'll be completely

00:01:49.000 honest, I have—there's no news here.

00:01:51.000 In the—I mean, it's news that she's arrested. What I mean is there's no updates, we have no

00:01:56.000 information. All we know is right now there's a, you know, 50,000 or so tweets going around,

00:02:02.000 which should be trending. It's not trending. And it's about Millie Weaver being arrested. So

00:02:08.000 I'm not super familiar with who she is. But just so you know, you know, that's—I don't know,

00:02:13.000 I don't know, some people were asking about it.

00:02:15.000 But other than that, I'm hanging out with Lydia tonight.

00:02:18.000 It's our Patch Lids.

00:02:18.000 Hello.

00:02:19.000 Yeah, we're chilling.

00:02:20.000 It's Friday.

00:02:21.000 Man, I gotta be honest with everybody.

00:02:22.000 It's been a crazy week.

00:02:24.000 And I'm all a bit tired.

00:02:25.000 I'm a bit tired.

00:02:27.000 YouTube's giving me the business about the audio bitrate, whatever that means.

00:02:31.000 We didn't change anything.

00:02:32.000 And we're going to be hanging out and talking about a bunch of stuff, and we're going to keep it chill.

00:02:35.000 It's a skateboarding story.

00:02:37.000 There's some funny circumstances pertaining to a bookstore that thought they were supporting diversity and inclusion, when in fact they were putting up a satirical book by Tectonia McGrath.

00:02:46.000 And so it's all very funny.

00:02:47.000 But we got some bigger news pertaining to just, I don't know, crazy election stuff.

00:02:52.000 The Kamala Harris birtherism, which is just... I don't know, man.

00:02:56.000 There's some famous lawyer, I guess, who wrote that Kamala Harris isn't really a citizen, or at least he entertained the possibility.

00:03:04.000 And now Newsweek, because this is published by the mainstream media, has put out multiple editorial notes saying, we're sorry, we didn't mean to stoke racist xenophobia, blah, blah, blah.

00:03:16.000 I don't know, they published this story, and it's... I think these things are a bit ridiculous, but it's a really... I mean, this guy who wrote this, he's qualified, right? 0.57

00:03:26.000 So we've got some updates in regards to this, and we'll also talk about... I know, I know.

00:03:31.000 Oh, doom and gloom.

00:03:32.000 But, uh, bread riots.

00:03:34.000 Yeah.

00:03:35.000 I found an article about it, so we're not the only ones thinking this.

00:03:35.000 Yeah.

00:03:38.000 Yeah, there's people writing about the possibility that food shortages will start hitting now.

00:03:43.000 And it feels like with the mass evictions, the potential for mass evictions, and just the general economic crisis, at a certain point, I'm wondering, you know, how much of this, like, why haven't we restarted the economy?

00:03:57.000 Why are we still, why are they arresting people?

00:03:59.000 And now you've got The Week, which has written, are bread riots coming?

00:04:03.000 I don't know about bread riots, but the riots we saw in Chicago, where people went around looting everything, Which I believe had nothing to do with food.

00:04:09.000 The Black Lives Matter activists came out and then later said, well, you know, they need to eat, so I don't care what they do, you know, it's reparations. 0.90

00:04:16.000 And we saw Ocasio-Cortez in the past say that the spike in murder in New York was about bread.

00:04:25.000 And so now people have made it a big joke that, you know, she's telling people they need bread and all that stuff.

00:04:30.000 But let's get started.

00:04:32.000 You know, I also, I have a skateboarding thing I want to talk about.

00:04:34.000 I got a bone to pick with Tony Hawk a little bit.

00:04:37.000 And I think it'll be fun, but we'll save it for towards the end of the show.

00:04:41.000 And we're just gonna hang out, we're gonna chill.

00:04:42.000 And we'll probably take some, you know, we got super chats going.

00:04:45.000 So if you have not already, feel free to hit the like button if you like the show.

00:04:48.000 It's entirely optional.

00:04:51.000 No, hit the like button, subscribe, hit the notification bell if you wanna hang out.

00:04:54.000 We do the show Monday through Friday, 8 p.m.

00:04:56.000 live.

00:04:57.000 And let's jump to the first story.

00:05:00.000 All right.

00:05:01.000 So this is from Newsweek.

00:05:03.000 Some questions.

00:05:04.000 Some questions for Kamala Harris about eligibility.

00:05:07.000 Opinion from John C. Eastman, professor of law, Chapman University, and senior fellow at the Claremont Institute.

00:05:14.000 This man seems... He seems knowledgeable.

00:05:16.000 Qualified?

00:05:17.000 Okay.

00:05:17.000 Mm-hmm.

00:05:18.000 All right.

00:05:18.000 Okay.

00:05:18.000 So this guy's qualified.

00:05:20.000 What's his deal?

00:05:23.000 First of all, there's a massive editor's note.

00:05:24.000 Right at the top.

00:05:25.000 Wow.

00:05:26.000 This op-ed is being used by some as a tool to perpetuate racism and xenophobia.

00:05:31.000 We apologize.

00:05:32.000 The essay by John Eastman was intended to explore a minority legal argument about the definition of who is a natural born citizen in the United States.

00:05:40.000 But to many readers, the essay inevitably conveyed the ugly message that Senator Kamala Harris, a woman of color and the child of immigrants, was somehow not truly American.

00:05:49.000 Really?

00:05:50.000 Who said that?

00:05:51.000 I guess a bunch, they did.

00:05:51.000 I don't know.

00:05:54.000 Yeah.

00:05:54.000 They literally wrote this article.

00:05:56.000 And now we get, we get this.

00:05:58.000 This is what we get from the raw story.

00:06:00.000 Trump pushes racist birther conspiracy theory against Kamala Harris during White House briefing.

00:06:06.000 I saw this and I was, wow, could Donald Trump really be going in that direction again?

00:06:11.000 Because we talked about this the other day.

00:06:13.000 We've talked about it quite a bit.

00:06:14.000 I think Trump's actually, you know, he's been improving.

00:06:16.000 Yeah, he has.

00:06:18.000 His attitude.

00:06:18.000 He's gotten a lot nicer.

00:06:20.000 He's gotten a lot less insulting.

00:06:21.000 And that's why this kind of surprised me.

00:06:23.000 I was like, why is Trump choosing to push this right now?

00:06:26.000 Because that's not a really good look.

00:06:28.000 And he's got to know that, right?

00:06:29.000 He didn't push anything, in fact.

00:06:31.000 Yeah.

00:06:31.000 Oh, really?

00:06:32.000 Interesting.

00:06:33.000 Well, let me show you the story and then we'll tell you what's really going on.

00:06:36.000 Wow, what is this?

00:06:36.000 What?

00:06:36.000 I'm not saying that.

00:06:37.000 racist conspiracy theory against Senator Kamala Harris on Thursday.

00:06:41.000 Trump was asked by an unknown reporter if Harris was an anchor.

00:06:44.000 What?

00:06:45.000 I'm not saying that.

00:06:46.000 Wow.

00:06:47.000 What is this?

00:06:48.000 This is not true.

00:06:51.000 That's the media you get.

00:06:54.000 Trump was asked by a reporter about the Newsweek article, and they used a disparaging term for somebody who was born to immigrant parents, who was ineligible to run for president.

00:07:02.000 The president praised the author of a Newsweek analysis that was widely slammed as racist birtherism, much like the racist birtherism Trump pushed against former President Barack Obama.

00:07:13.000 And here we go.

00:07:14.000 It's always Aaron Ruppar, isn't it?

00:07:16.000 Yeah, kind of.

00:07:17.000 Yeah, you have a bunch of these, like, Twitter leftists that... It's just lies, man.

00:07:21.000 I wonder at what point the lies are too much, you know?

00:07:25.000 Yeah.

00:07:26.000 When does it push people to the breaking point?

00:07:28.000 I guess never because this guy's got 3.1k retweets and comments.

00:07:43.000 I just heard today that she doesn't meet the requirements. 0.99

00:07:46.000 I have no idea if it's right.

00:07:48.000 I'm actually going to play this for you so you guys can actually hear what really happened.

00:07:52.000 Hopefully it works.

00:07:53.000 I don't know, Twitter sometimes gives me the business.

00:07:56.000 Which it is now.

00:07:57.000 I am going to play this clip after it refreshes so you can hear what Trump actually said.

00:08:02.000 Mr. President, the first one on domestic policy, third claim.

00:08:05.000 Can't understand a word you're saying.

00:08:06.000 There are claims circulating in social media that Kamala Harris is not eligible to be, to run for vice president because she was an anchor baby, I quote. 0.77

00:08:15.000 Do you, or can you definitively say whether or not Kamala Harris is eligible, meets the legal requirements to run as vice president?

00:08:23.000 So I just heard that, I heard it today.

00:08:27.000 And that's about it.

00:08:53.000 I have no idea if it's right, but Trump is the one pushing it.

00:08:57.000 I'm just, I'm exhausted, you know?

00:09:00.000 I'm a bit tired.

00:09:03.000 So I kind of had a bone to pick with this lady's question, because it literally sounds to me like she was scrolling Facebook, and she saw a question that said something disparaging about Kamala Harris, and she's like, oh, you know what I bet I could do with this?

00:09:16.000 I bet I could get Trump on this.

00:09:18.000 She did actually say that phrase.

00:09:20.000 I didn't realize she said that, but it was muffled.

00:09:22.000 Yeah, it was very muffled.

00:09:23.000 Yeah, an unknown reporter.

00:09:25.000 They could have figured out who she was, but this is the reporting that we get today.

00:09:29.000 You know what, man?

00:09:30.000 It feels like it's just getting, I guess, crazier and crazier every day, and it's probably having to do with the fact that the election is getting closer and closer.

00:09:39.000 We saw that... Well, let me show you this, and some of you probably have already seen this, because I do talk about a lot of stuff earlier.

00:09:46.000 The New York Times published this, and I thought it was absolutely hilarious, but it's also kind of just mind-breaking at a certain point.

00:09:54.000 They actually called Donald Trump, they called it the Drumpf administration.

00:09:58.000 They actually put Drumpf in a New York Times article.

00:10:01.000 And it just says to me that I don't even know how to figure, like, look, when I do news stories, like the things I do all day, I'm using these sources to determine what's happening.

00:10:14.000 Right.

00:10:15.000 But if the New York Times is calling Trump Drumpf, if Raw Story is, I mean, look, these sources are like certified.

00:10:22.000 Look at this.

00:10:23.000 NewsGuard gives it green checks.

00:10:25.000 I mean, it's an 80 out of 100 credibility.

00:10:28.000 What are their failings?

00:10:29.000 The failings of Raw Story, they don't handle the difference between news and opinion responsibly, and they don't label their advertising.

00:10:36.000 So I use NewsGuard because it's a check on my bias for all of my sources, for the stories that I use.

00:10:42.000 But if I have to go to these stories and they're going to tell me it's legit, and then I'm going to go to The Daily Wire, for instance, and they say that The Daily Wire is fake news, it gets a red exclamation point.

00:10:55.000 Yeah, because they disagree with them.

00:10:56.000 It doesn't even matter, but Media Matters gets a green checkmark.

00:11:01.000 Really?

00:11:02.000 Yeah, I think if you can't tell the difference between opinion and news, it's just, give him an X, just say it's an opinion site.

00:11:11.000 Just give him an opinion, give him a checkmark that says opinion commentary, period.

00:11:15.000 Because this is not real.

00:11:17.000 Trump didn't push anything, it's literally made up.

00:11:20.000 And his name isn't Drumpf, I'm just, at a certain point, You know, if I have to look at news, and I'm trying to make an assessment about, you know, what I can report to people every day when I do stories, and it's just, you know, I look at Vox, for instance, they're certified, I look at the New York Times, I look at all these sources, and I have to assume they're true, but then all that's really happening is that I'm assuming certain stories are true.

00:11:45.000 Right.

00:11:46.000 And then I have to, what, find the stories that aren't true?

00:11:49.000 To be fair, they linked to the tweet from the video, and there's nothing in it.

00:11:55.000 But no one's ever gonna click that, because all you do is read the headline, right?

00:11:59.000 Sometimes you read the opinion, sometimes you're like, oh my gosh, this is exactly what I expected from him, and my confirmation, my bias has been confirmed, and I'm just gonna go with what I think.

00:11:59.000 And that's all they do.

00:12:08.000 So I had a question about the...

00:12:11.000 You turned red.

00:12:11.000 I know.

00:12:12.000 I just noticed.

00:12:12.000 I don't know why.

00:12:13.000 I'm not embarrassed or anything.

00:12:15.000 I think it's just my white balance.

00:12:15.000 I promise.

00:12:16.000 It's all good.

00:12:17.000 Yep.

00:12:18.000 I had a question about the, um, the drum thing.

00:12:20.000 That is so strange to me.

00:12:21.000 Do you think it might've just been somebody trolling somebody who sneaked in when they weren't supposed to?

00:12:25.000 And they're like, this is actually going to be funny and put it in.

00:12:28.000 Cause they changed it back like immediately.

00:12:30.000 Right.

00:12:31.000 Well, it was up for a while.

00:12:32.000 But do you think it might have just been somebody trolling or somebody trying to cause trouble?

00:12:32.000 Yeah.

00:12:36.000 I don't know, man.

00:12:36.000 What do you think happened there?

00:12:37.000 But I hope that they're gonna get fired.

00:12:38.000 Yeah.

00:12:39.000 Unless they can't find out who did it.

00:12:41.000 Somebody, so they wrote this article and it said the Trump administration initially and then somebody went in and changed it to the Drumpf administration and I quickly archived it.

00:12:52.000 Yes, of course.

00:12:52.000 Because that's the, you know, goal.

00:12:54.000 That's amazing.

00:12:54.000 And then, you know, they changed it back.

00:12:57.000 But it just shows you that the people who work at these companies, their intention is not to report the news.

00:13:01.000 And so it creates this, like, actual predicament where if everything I'm supposed to be sourcing, what am I just choosing?

00:13:10.000 What I choose to believe?

00:13:11.000 And then I do stories, and we do stories, and we just assume, like, any of this is real.

00:13:17.000 You know what I mean?

00:13:17.000 Yeah, how are we supposed to know now?

00:13:19.000 They could literally make it up, and they probably do.

00:13:21.000 Yeah.

00:13:22.000 And then what happens is you get people on the left who will choose a source, and they'll say it's legit, and they'll say this story is right.

00:13:29.000 And then when you get right-wing sources, like I think a really good example of what's broken about media, even with sources like NewsGuard, is that they'll say the Daily Wire, for instance, which is Ben Shapiro's outlet, is factually incorrect.

00:13:42.000 They give it a red exclamation point.

00:13:44.000 But what they do is they aggregate news and then provide conservative commentary on it for the most part.

00:13:49.000 Sometimes they do like a straight news piece.

00:13:53.000 Media Matters, for instance, literally just smears people.

00:13:57.000 That's like their whole thing.

00:13:58.000 And that gets a green check from NewsGuard.

00:14:00.000 Yeah, that's confirmed.

00:14:01.000 So I like NewsGuard, and I'm glad they do what they do, but I don't understand why they don't pay a little more attention to the actual sources.

00:14:11.000 What's interesting is there was recently... Wikipedia, I guess, now determines that Fox News is no longer a reliable source.

00:14:19.000 Really?

00:14:20.000 Why is that?

00:14:20.000 Yeah.

00:14:21.000 Um, because Fox News too often is out of line with the rest of news.

00:14:26.000 And this is something they note on, like, CNN's reliable sources, and they use that as an excuse to claim, if you're not walking in lockstep with the rest of the media, then you're fake news.

00:14:36.000 I wonder if Newsweek will acquire Wikipedia's marked disapproval after this.

00:14:40.000 No, probably not.

00:14:40.000 No?

00:14:41.000 You don't think so?

00:14:41.000 No, I mean they're desperately trying to clean this up.

00:14:44.000 This is ridiculous. 0.78

00:14:45.000 Not only- Like a patchwork at this point. 0.87

00:14:47.000 They've published another op-ed, like they published another op-ed noting how it was a mistake.

00:14:53.000 They edited it to say, hey, check out this opinion piece where we're apologizing for writing a birtherism story, and then they actually go on to write another editorial note, which is basically apologizing once again.

00:15:11.000 And it's just like, you know, right now there is this crazy conspiracy theory going around going on on the left that I think perfectly exemplifies one of the big problems that we have.

00:15:22.000 It's they believe that mailboxes are being stolen by Trump supporters or by Trump himself.

00:15:29.000 That they're intentionally sending out trucks to snatch up mailboxes so that people can't mail and vote.

00:15:33.000 They're arguing that, you know, Jamie Lee Curtis tweeted that post office trucks literally being stolen by Trump supporters.

00:15:40.000 And the media never does anything about this.

00:15:43.000 But I'll be banned on YouTube for talking about something, you know.

00:15:43.000 Right.

00:15:47.000 Yeah, certain things, absolutely.

00:15:48.000 I mean, Twitter literally just banned anybody who mentions the QAnon stuff.

00:15:52.000 Yeah.

00:15:53.000 It's like, OK, fine.

00:15:54.000 You know, Twitter is going to make this move.

00:15:56.000 But they allow any and everything far left and unhinged to just persist.

00:16:02.000 I remember when I started thinking about this.

00:16:04.000 I started thinking, I really hate all these conspiracy theories that come from the right.

00:16:08.000 And then I was like, wait, why don't any conspiracy theories come from the left?

00:16:12.000 And I was like, wait a second, every single one of them is mainstream.

00:16:15.000 Like, um, Rachel Maddow talking about how they're going to turn off the lights in Fargo in the winter.

00:16:20.000 Turn off the electricity.

00:16:21.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:16:22.000 And, um, Russiagate and all this other stuff.

00:16:24.000 And I'm like, yeah, these things are commonly accepted.

00:16:26.000 And it doesn't, so it doesn't look like a conspiracy theory to them.

00:16:30.000 Everything that happens on the left that's a conspiracy theory is considered acceptable.

00:16:35.000 Yeah.

00:16:36.000 Everything that happens on the right, whether it's proven or not, is a conspiracy theory.

00:16:40.000 Until it's proven true, in which case it's immediately forgotten.

00:16:43.000 This is my theorem.

00:16:44.000 I don't, why, how does the media have this power?

00:16:47.000 I don't know.

00:16:47.000 Who gave them this power?

00:16:49.000 Why do we trust them?

00:16:49.000 Seriously.

00:16:51.000 I mean, the question is, why is what we talk about being dictated to us by the likes of the New York Times?

00:17:00.000 For a long time, they set the news cycle.

00:17:00.000 I get it.

00:17:02.000 And I think there's an issue with conservatives too often chasing after the left.

00:17:08.000 I hate to see it.

00:17:08.000 Constantly.

00:17:09.000 And that's it?

00:17:10.000 We're constantly playing catch-up.

00:17:10.000 Yeah.

00:17:12.000 Even with the story of Canon Hinnant?

00:17:15.000 Finally we see CNN and other outlets start talking about it.

00:17:20.000 And now we're seeing a bunch of meme posts refuting it, arguing that it's racist to bring up the story.

00:17:26.000 I'm not kidding.

00:17:27.000 Wow.

00:17:28.000 And conservatives are constantly playing catch up or chasing after the narrative that comes out from mainstream news.

00:17:37.000 So do you think it's because the news has started to like being the news?

00:17:41.000 Like Newsweek has just made a huge splash with this ridiculous article that they're trying to fix in real time.

00:17:46.000 Oh, they're panicking though.

00:17:47.000 Somebody's having a really bad day over there.

00:17:48.000 I think Josh Hammer, the opinion editor, is probably really struggling with this.

00:17:53.000 Well, I don't know if they think they're gonna get banned.

00:17:55.000 I think you need to hold up something that's white in front of your face because the camera broke.

00:17:59.000 Yeah, alright, let me try that.

00:18:01.000 No, I think it's something that conservatives need to figure out, I suppose.

00:18:06.000 Because I was reading an article once about how conservatives don't do news, they do commentary.

00:18:13.000 Yeah.

00:18:13.000 And because of that, they're constantly beholden to narratives from the left.

00:18:17.000 So the mainstream press will write something that's totally fake.

00:18:21.000 Conservatives will then chase after it.

00:18:23.000 And you'll get a big news cycle where the left and the right talk about it.

00:18:25.000 Right.

00:18:26.000 And the left doesn't care when the conservatives correct them.

00:18:29.000 So, you know, basically, you've got the New York Times that... I wonder why they even bothered correcting the word drumpf.

00:18:38.000 Yeah.

00:18:39.000 What do they care?

00:18:41.000 They did it, and, you know, if they put out fake news, like with Covington, it took an extreme amount of energy to finally get all these outlets to actually correct, and when they started correcting, they didn't actually do an initial full correction.

00:18:55.000 Did they just stop talking about it?

00:18:57.000 When the Covington stuff happened, I'm like, I don't care about this.

00:19:02.000 For those that don't know, this is the story where the kids were standing on the Lincoln Memorial stairs and the Native American guy came up.

00:19:10.000 And I just ignored it because it didn't make sense to me.

00:19:12.000 I was like, I don't understand why this matters to everybody.

00:19:14.000 Yeah, nothing happened.

00:19:15.000 And then a bunch of people started pointing out, the Native American guy walked up to the kids.

00:19:21.000 So, once I saw that, then I started reporting on it.

00:19:25.000 I said it was fake news.

00:19:26.000 So this was like literally a day later.

00:19:28.000 I got a ton of views.

00:19:29.000 I got like half a million views on my video.

00:19:31.000 People were sharing it.

00:19:32.000 And there was also Robby Suave of Reason, right?

00:19:35.000 I believe so.

00:19:36.000 He was also saying like, hey, this narrative is not true.

00:19:39.000 And the media company's initial response was like they waited two days before finally coming out and saying, oh, it's a little different than we thought.

00:19:49.000 And then two days later, and two days later, and then finally they were like, it turns out new camera angles reveal.

00:19:55.000 How was it that these reporters knew less than random people on Twitter?

00:20:02.000 And how is it that they get away with, you know, running narrative all the time?

00:20:09.000 At what point do conservatives stop paying attention to what they're saying and then just roll with their own narratives?

00:20:16.000 And not even conservatives, but moderates or anybody else.

00:20:18.000 Well, what would that look like?

00:20:21.000 I mean, if the National Review or, you know, whatever published a story, and I think a lot of people, a lot of Trump supporters don't like the National Review, but they need to do their own journalism.

00:20:31.000 I mean, I think real clear politics is right-leaning.

00:20:34.000 They're probably not right-leaning, but they're more likely to give a right perspective on some op-eds.

00:20:41.000 Yeah, I think all sides gives them like a center balance, right?

00:20:44.000 Let me hold up this white thing and see if this works.

00:20:46.000 Yeah, I have no idea why.

00:20:47.000 It got really red.

00:20:48.000 Let's see.

00:20:49.000 You need to hold it over your face.

00:20:52.000 The camera's broken.

00:20:54.000 I really am distracted.

00:20:57.000 I'm too exhausted, man.

00:20:58.000 No worries.

00:20:59.000 We'll be fine.

00:21:01.000 Yeah, you know what?

00:21:02.000 I think just in general, you've got all of this political stuff that's going on, and to be a little more personal, To deal with 16 hours of work per day, to deal with the frustrations of literally everything, and then, you know, we get the white balance breaks and a camera.

00:21:23.000 And I'm just like, dude, we are sitting, you know, a couple months away from this election.

00:21:30.000 Every day, the media is just another fake, just completely fake BS.

00:21:38.000 You know, the story about Kamala, Trump did it, whatever.

00:21:41.000 And now Hillary is... It is amusing to me how quickly... I'm almost reticent to show my face again because it's so red.

00:21:49.000 I like it.

00:21:49.000 We'll go with it.

00:21:49.000 Cool.

00:21:50.000 Your face is red.

00:21:51.000 You get it.

00:21:51.000 I love it.

00:21:52.000 I really like how quickly Newsweek is editing this now that people are giving them a hard time.

00:21:57.000 But it's the left.

00:21:59.000 Exactly.

00:22:00.000 In comparison to the Covington thing where it was two days later and then two more days later and slowly the truth is kind of squeezed out of them.

00:22:08.000 This, because it goes contrary to the narrative, they're fixing it in real time.

00:22:12.000 It's kind of interesting to watch that dichotomy taking place.

00:22:15.000 I'm sick.

00:22:17.000 I'm sick of it. 1.00

00:22:18.000 You know, it's like you look at any major brand, and you get some stupid left-wing narrative, and that's the only thing that's ever allowed to be pushed. 0.99

00:22:18.000 Yeah. 0.99

00:22:28.000 And the same is true on YouTube, and the same is true on Twitter and Facebook.

00:22:32.000 And the way I've described it before is, I think we talked about this the other day, if you're only allowed to talk about the left perspective, then the only direction you can go is to the left.

00:22:44.000 That makes sense.

00:22:46.000 And you just drive straight off the cliff.

00:22:47.000 Absolutely.

00:22:48.000 Like a good example is COVID.

00:22:50.000 Our country is literally falling apart.

00:22:53.000 They're talking about bread riots.

00:22:57.000 Right.

00:22:57.000 We'll pull it up.

00:22:57.000 I'm not even kidding.

00:22:58.000 Yeah, look at that.

00:22:59.000 That's interesting.

00:23:00.000 Are bread riots coming to America?

00:23:02.000 Also, notice the ad at the top is a bunch of body armor.

00:23:05.000 Huh.

00:23:06.000 Are bread riots coming to America?

00:23:08.000 You know what?

00:23:09.000 I don't know, but maybe.

00:23:10.000 But here, the issue I see is, the big problem I think it's affecting us right now is that we can't talk.

00:23:17.000 Literally, no one can talk about, say, hydroxychloroquine.

00:23:22.000 Yeah.

00:23:23.000 And you have Dr. Harvey Risch of Yale, MD, PhD, writing op-ed after op-ed about how he thinks it is helpful, about how we can use it to end this crisis.

00:23:37.000 You've got articles coming out about the low death rate, the deaths going down, but the only thing you're allowed to talk about is that it's getting worse, period.

00:23:47.000 Even though most people don't see it, You know, you look at the polling for Republicans.

00:23:53.000 They almost exclusively don't care about it.

00:23:55.000 Right.

00:23:55.000 At all.

00:23:56.000 Like the Sturgis motorbike rally.

00:23:58.000 They just show up.

00:23:58.000 Yep.

00:23:59.000 They're doing their thing.

00:24:00.000 But when you look to the left, they're screeching.

00:24:02.000 Like, why won't people wear masks?

00:24:03.000 They're terrified.

00:24:04.000 They want to give you oxytocin to make you more likely to wear your mask.

00:24:07.000 Yeah.

00:24:09.000 So what are we supposed to do?

00:24:11.000 You know, it's interesting.

00:24:12.000 I did a segment on masks because we had the Atlas Gym in New Jersey.

00:24:19.000 They actually revoked the business license.

00:24:22.000 The city did, right?

00:24:23.000 Yeah, it was the city.

00:24:24.000 And it was a Democratic council.

00:24:26.000 It was five to one.

00:24:27.000 What is this, you know? 0.77

00:24:30.000 If the media doesn't allow conversations like the Newsweek one, and they have to panic because they're terrified of this activist group of people, we're screwed, man.

00:24:43.000 I mean, I'm not even kidding.

00:24:45.000 We're talking about 30 to 40 million evictions, and if anyone steps out of line, even the president, It's just lie after lie after lie in the media.

00:24:53.000 The only thing you're allowed to do, I mean, I'll tell you what, if I came out and made a video where I pushed the most unhinged and insane far-left conspiracy about COVID saying it was worse and the end is coming and it's Trump's fault, I'd be fine.

00:25:05.000 Yep.

00:25:06.000 They wouldn't do anything negative.

00:25:08.000 I could read one article talking about hydroxychloroquine and then they shut it down, they ban you, and there have been YouTubers already banned.

00:25:17.000 It's so weird, this article, to me, because in it they talk about how desperate people are getting and how much they're struggling and how little money they have and what an issue it is for them to be stuck in, you know, COVID nightmare, COVID purgatory.

00:25:32.000 And their final solution is to say that they are in need of government help.

00:25:37.000 That's their ultimate sentence.

00:25:39.000 They're like, we just need help from people.

00:25:41.000 Like, we need help from the government.

00:25:42.000 The Republicans have to be willing to give people things.

00:25:45.000 And I'm like, Why don't we just reopen the economy?

00:25:49.000 Why don't we let people go to work?

00:25:50.000 You're not allowed to say that.

00:25:52.000 Why is that?

00:25:53.000 I don't know.

00:25:54.000 And it's tiresome, man.

00:25:54.000 I don't know.

00:25:57.000 It is increasingly tiresome.

00:26:00.000 It is increasingly frustrating that, you know, the restrictions that are increasingly put in place.

00:26:07.000 I think things are getting better.

00:26:08.000 I mean, we just saw Crowder got reinstated into the partner program.

00:26:10.000 Yeah, that's great.

00:26:11.000 So hopefully, you know, it's not that bad and it's getting better.

00:26:16.000 But you look at what's going on in New York, and it feels like sometimes they're trying their hardest to help Trump win by destroying everything.

00:26:25.000 Yeah, and you kind of floated that theory before that they actually want Trump to win.

00:26:29.000 And I've kind of seen that with the media, where they get this huge bump from him.

00:26:32.000 So to me, that kind of makes sense that they would want to keep him in.

00:26:36.000 I don't know.

00:26:38.000 Maybe that's it.

00:26:40.000 There was an article we had from Digiday talking about how all these news outlets are starting to panic.

00:26:45.000 What are they going to do once Trump is out of office?

00:26:49.000 Like, their revenue stream is gone.

00:26:50.000 Who are they going to talk about?

00:26:52.000 I mean, cable TV for sure.

00:26:53.000 I think everyone except Tucker Carlson and Hannity will just evaporate overnight.

00:26:58.000 Yeah.

00:26:59.000 Tucker and Hannity had record ratings for cable history.

00:27:05.000 That's weird to me, especially considering, I mean... No one even watches cable anymore, right?

00:27:10.000 But they do for them, I suppose.

00:27:13.000 And so I think if Trump were to lose, yeah, CNN's gone, MSNBC, whatever, all these channels are just gone.

00:27:21.000 Fox News would still be around, but their ratings would be a lot lower.

00:27:25.000 Right.

00:27:26.000 And I wonder what it is that causes cable TV to do that well.

00:27:29.000 I understand it's Trump, but like why cable TV specifically?

00:27:32.000 I think it must just be older people, an older demographic.

00:27:36.000 It's not true.

00:27:36.000 It's not.

00:27:37.000 No?

00:27:37.000 It's not?

00:27:38.000 It's not.

00:27:39.000 What are the stats on it?

00:27:41.000 Tucker Carlson specifically is getting like 30-year-olds.

00:27:44.000 Really?

00:27:44.000 Yeah, 30-year-old dudes.

00:27:46.000 I did not know that.

00:27:47.000 Yep.

00:27:47.000 That's like the coveted demographic.

00:27:49.000 It is, yeah, he's nailing it.

00:27:51.000 And then we're actually seeing the key demo go up for these other channels as well.

00:27:55.000 I definitely think COVID has pushed people into a, you know, like, really politically active space.

00:28:01.000 Yeah, well it's definitely pushed them home and given them more free time.

00:28:04.000 It's given them free time to catch up on the news and I think probably more people are following current events than were before because they have time.

00:28:12.000 They're not at work anymore.

00:28:14.000 Right, exactly.

00:28:14.000 Time to sit around and think.

00:28:15.000 Yeah, there's no sports.

00:28:16.000 Right, oh yeah.

00:28:18.000 And I'm seeing a lot of people get active on Twitter. 0.99

00:28:21.000 And that kind of sucks. 0.98

00:28:22.000 Yeah. 0.97

00:28:23.000 Because it's like, man, if only we could do something else.

00:28:26.000 But but yeah, it's it's you know, people are getting active on Twitter.

00:28:29.000 I'm seeing people I know from back home all of a sudden now are tweeting nonstop.

00:28:32.000 Turning up.

00:28:33.000 Oh boy.

00:28:34.000 Yeah.

00:28:34.000 And I'm like, these are people who don't normally talk about anything.

00:28:37.000 They're being activated.

00:28:39.000 They are being activated.

00:28:40.000 I think it's partly due to the Democrats' strategy.

00:28:44.000 They need a massive voter turnout.

00:28:46.000 They do, don't they? 0.99

00:28:47.000 Yeah, so, you know, look, I'm not one to push conspiracies, but I gotta say, when the governors of these states are arresting people for opening their businesses with no scientific justification, I'm like, are you really that dumb and evil? 0.99

00:29:02.000 I don't know. 0.98

00:29:02.000 Maybe. 0.98

00:29:04.000 That would be the simplest solution, wouldn't it? 1.00

00:29:06.000 They're dumb and evil? 1.00

00:29:07.000 Yeah, they're just dumb. 1.00

00:29:08.000 Maybe just dumb. 1.00

00:29:09.000 I guess we could give them the benefit of the doubt and just call them kind of dumb. 1.00

00:29:12.000 Why would I give them the benefit of the doubt? 0.99

00:29:15.000 Fair point.

00:29:16.000 That's fair.

00:29:17.000 I don't know. 0.76

00:29:18.000 I saw somebody posted earlier that Trump was evil. 0.70

00:29:22.000 Again, another one.

00:29:23.000 And I'm just thinking to myself, as time goes on, there used to be arguments that I would hear about Trump, and I'd be like, that's a good point.

00:29:32.000 He's an imperfect guy.

00:29:34.000 Now the only arguments they have are so unhinged.

00:29:36.000 I'm like, I don't remember the last time someone said something about Trump that was bad, that actually made a point, that made me consider Trump was bad.

00:29:43.000 Right.

00:29:43.000 And that makes me think, you know, everything I've observed that I didn't really like about Trump, I observed for myself.

00:29:49.000 I did not need anyone else to tell me that Trump made a mistake, that he called someone a name, that he said the wrong thing in a press conference.

00:29:57.000 I saw that for myself.

00:29:59.000 So when I mean, maybe it's just because the media is breaking and we're all starting to pay attention.

00:30:04.000 Yeah.

00:30:05.000 Like maybe, you know, I know it's it's true to say early on in, you know, Trump's in the 2015 cycle.

00:30:14.000 They were lying about what Trump was saying.

00:30:15.000 Oh, yeah.

00:30:16.000 And then we had the Shinzo Abe thing.

00:30:17.000 So I've known there's been a lot of lies.

00:30:20.000 But there's been legit things like, you know, the easiest thing to call to is the Rosie O'Donnell thing.

00:30:24.000 Yeah.

00:30:25.000 You know what's crazy is that a lot of people don't know this.

00:30:29.000 There's that viral video of where Trump is doing the arm thing.

00:30:32.000 You know what I'm talking about?

00:30:32.000 Where he like shakes and he puts his arm up or whatever.

00:30:35.000 And he's like, duh, duh.

00:30:37.000 And the media ran this narrative that he was mocking a disabled journalist.

00:30:41.000 Like a certain journalist.

00:30:43.000 A specific guy who has... I'm like, was that a setup?

00:30:47.000 Did Trump... I don't understand.

00:30:49.000 Because apparently, I've seen the videos now, Trump does that to make fun of everybody.

00:30:54.000 Have you ever seen... I'm going to ask this seriously and I don't mean this in any kind of disrespect.

00:30:59.000 Have you ever seen a reporter who's had a developmental disability like that before?

00:31:03.000 No.

00:31:04.000 I think it might have been a setup.

00:31:06.000 And that's a terrible thing to say.

00:31:07.000 I mean, I don't know.

00:31:08.000 No, no.

00:31:09.000 You don't think so?

00:31:10.000 No, because how are you going to?

00:31:12.000 I mean, I guess they could trick Trump.

00:31:14.000 They knew like Trump likes to do this. 0.96

00:31:16.000 But that's that's silly because you never know when Trump's going to act crazy or whatever. 0.96

00:31:20.000 And you know what? 0.93

00:31:20.000 That would have required a little bit of forethought. 0.93

00:31:23.000 So I will rule that out completely because I don't think they have any forethought whatsoever.

00:31:27.000 I've never been more conspiratorial in my life than this whole year.

00:31:33.000 Because it's like things make literally no sense.

00:31:37.000 I can't remember who tweeted about this, but it was like a journalist.

00:31:42.000 It was a prominent journalist.

00:31:45.000 Oh, I think it was a guy who was used to with the New York Times.

00:31:47.000 The Sun Belt states never locked down.

00:31:48.000 They're doing fine.

00:31:49.000 South Dakota never locked down.

00:31:51.000 Their GDP is actually like slightly up.

00:31:53.000 Yeah.

00:31:53.000 All of these other states are putting sick people in nursing homes or did.

00:31:57.000 Yeah.

00:31:59.000 And they're shutting things down.

00:32:01.000 And for what?

00:32:03.000 Apparently for like some kind of gigantic virtue signal.

00:32:06.000 I really don't know because if you're putting sick people in nursing homes, what really are you going for?

00:32:13.000 To me, that feels like nothing but a virtue signal saying we're doing something and maybe not even the right thing.

00:32:20.000 That had to be some kind of, I don't know, man.

00:32:24.000 To me, that's like pure evil because I've worked in hospitals and nursing homes.

00:32:28.000 That is not a place where you take that kind of stuff lightly.

00:32:31.000 Like you put on PPE for everything that someone else might get.

00:32:35.000 You really wanted to make sure that your old people don't get sick.

00:32:38.000 They put people with COVID in nursing homes in multiple states.

00:32:43.000 Yep.

00:32:44.000 And for what reason did they do this?

00:32:47.000 And now a large portion of those who died were in nursing homes.

00:32:50.000 Yeah, and old people are naturally immunocompromised at a certain point, especially people in nursing homes.

00:32:57.000 That is cruel.

00:32:59.000 That's really cruel.

00:33:00.000 There's no conspiracy theory.

00:33:03.000 It's literal.

00:33:04.000 No, it's happened, yeah.

00:33:06.000 They took people and put them in a place with the most COVID-vulnerable people possible.

00:33:12.000 And that accounted for a lot of the death.

00:33:14.000 Like, the people who are more likely to die from COVID are older people.

00:33:18.000 Of course, yeah.

00:33:19.000 So why would they do that?

00:33:20.000 And that's why, look, I've never been more conspiratorial.

00:33:23.000 I haven't either.

00:33:24.000 It's making me feel a little weird because I'm not naturally conspiratorial.

00:33:27.000 I tend to, I'm very skeptical.

00:33:29.000 I'm like, I don't believe, you know, I want to see for sure what's happening, but I'm watching them put sick people in with old people. 1.00

00:33:36.000 And I'm like, what is happening and why?

00:33:38.000 I hate it.

00:33:39.000 I really like old people. 1.00

00:33:41.000 And then you have to speculate because they can't be that stupid. 1.00

00:33:45.000 There's no way. 1.00

00:33:46.000 And I think Cuomo has even talked about it.

00:33:48.000 He blames Trump for it.

00:33:49.000 He's like, oh, Trump told us to do it or something like that.

00:33:52.000 Then why are all the states not doing it?

00:33:54.000 Because they're full of it.

00:33:55.000 They're lying.

00:33:57.000 Yeah, I have no answer.

00:34:00.000 All I can tell you is, man, it just feels intentional.

00:34:06.000 Yep.

00:34:07.000 And then what about the riots?

00:34:10.000 You know what?

00:34:11.000 You know what I was thinking the other day?

00:34:12.000 They could have released that body cam footage as pretty much as soon as they had it.

00:34:16.000 Keith Ellison said no.

00:34:18.000 Why did Keith Ellison say no?

00:34:20.000 He literally said, I don't want to compromise a successful prosecution.

00:34:25.000 Really?

00:34:26.000 Yes.

00:34:27.000 Huh.

00:34:27.000 That's that's actually what his reason was.

00:34:29.000 That's amazing.

00:34:30.000 And now the body cam footage has come out from the George Floyd incident.

00:34:32.000 And we know this the initial the narrative they gave us was not true.

00:34:37.000 But I even read the report.

00:34:39.000 It's so it's so and man, I had someone criticizing me on Facebook, saying that I wouldn't talk about the police brutality.

00:34:47.000 And I'm like, I have and I cover this, like, every to every degree.

00:34:51.000 When when the George Floyd thing happened, I literally, you know, went step by step.

00:34:55.000 I remember that, yeah.

00:34:57.000 And I read one of the reports that said they pulled him out of the vehicle for some reason, and then pinned him down, and I was like, wow.

00:35:04.000 And I was like, that's it?

00:35:05.000 They pulled him out again?

00:35:06.000 Yeah.

00:35:07.000 They had him in the vehicle.

00:35:08.000 It turns out, he kicked his way out.

00:35:10.000 And he said, hold me on the ground, I'm claustrophobic, and all these things.

00:35:13.000 Three times, yeah.

00:35:13.000 And so I still think it was an unfortunate circumstance, and we don't want these things to happen.

00:35:18.000 But they held onto that body camera footage that would have proven all this and stopped all of it.

00:35:22.000 Yeah, and by the time they let it out, the riots were off and running.

00:35:25.000 Like, there was no stopping this.

00:35:27.000 And people are rioting for reasons of their own.

00:35:29.000 And it's taken on a life of its own.

00:35:32.000 Like, I don't even know what people are on about anymore.

00:35:34.000 You know what really bugs me?

00:35:35.000 I keep getting text messages from the same numbers for the same candidates, but from different people.

00:35:42.000 Like, they hand each other the phones and say, just try again.

00:35:45.000 That sounds like fun.

00:35:46.000 Yeah.

00:35:47.000 So I got a text message, I think yesterday, and they were like, can we count on you to make a donation to, you know, this progressive whatever?

00:35:54.000 And I said straight up, I was like, absolutely not, because I'm tired of the riots and I'm tired of the lies.

00:35:59.000 Yeah.

00:36:00.000 Like the riots have been going on and the media is acting like it's not happening.

00:36:04.000 What did they say?

00:36:05.000 I understand. Can I ask who you're supporting?

00:36:07.000 The only person who has said they will deal with the riots.

00:36:11.000 And like, and who is that? And I'm like, I hope you have a nice day.

00:36:16.000 Yeah.

00:36:16.000 And then today I get a text message from the same number.

00:36:20.000 It's a different name.

00:36:21.000 Hi, this is Jack.

00:36:22.000 Yesterday, you know, yesterday it's like, hi, it's Mike.

00:36:24.000 Now it's Jack or Sarah or whatever.

00:36:27.000 And we're hoping you contribute to the campaign of this person or whatever.

00:36:29.000 And I'm like, I told the person the exact same thing yesterday.

00:36:32.000 I was like, you know, they raised the bridges in Chicago and shut down the loop area.

00:36:37.000 They're like, shouldn't people know about what's going on?

00:36:39.000 They sure should.

00:36:41.000 I wonder why it is YouTube allows channels like this to exist.

00:36:44.000 Like ours?

00:36:45.000 Yeah.

00:36:45.000 What makes you wonder?

00:36:47.000 Like, because we're talking bad about the narrative and everything they've put forward.

00:36:53.000 I don't know, is it to feign there's some kind of objection?

00:36:57.000 I think so.

00:37:00.000 I think they have to pretend that they're mildly objective.

00:37:03.000 I don't think they see any way around that.

00:37:05.000 Because with so many different avenues of social media, there's going to be some way you can speak up and say something.

00:37:10.000 I think maybe it has to do with, like, yes, you know, they want to make it look like you have an objective platform.

00:37:17.000 Yeah.

00:37:18.000 And I think it has a lot to do with if there is no—you have controlled opposition, essentially.

00:37:23.000 Not that there's anyone at YouTube telling me what to say, but I do think it's rather interesting that certain channels seem to do okay, and certain channels don't, and certain channels get deleted.

00:37:34.000 And I think there's an acceptable opposition that these companies feel safe with.

00:37:40.000 I think it's mostly business-related, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was political as well.

00:37:44.000 Like, they're both interests that companies have.

00:37:47.000 And so it's basically like, one of the things I've talked about before is how they spin the wheel so that far-left becomes left, you know, right-wing becomes far-right, centrist becomes right-wing.

00:37:58.000 They want to shift everything over.

00:38:00.000 And so they're okay with like, you know, a liberal like me doing content that's, you know, talking, you know, against the Democrats because they want an acceptable opposition.

00:38:09.000 Right.

00:38:10.000 That almost sounds like an art of war strategy.

00:38:13.000 So if you, if you have opposition, do everything in your power to kind of contain them and control them to a level that you can, you can actually like keep track of what they're saying.

00:38:25.000 He's worried about my camera.

00:38:26.000 We'll see if we can fix it.

00:38:27.000 Yeah.

00:38:28.000 What do you think?

00:38:28.000 That'd be great.

00:38:29.000 Oh, it's just... It's frustrating.

00:38:31.000 Yeah.

00:38:32.000 I shouldn't hold that up.

00:38:34.000 We're chilling.

00:38:35.000 Yeah.

00:38:36.000 I'm exhausted, man.

00:38:37.000 To be completely honest, I'm super exhausted.

00:38:39.000 I work 16 hours a day, all day, every single day.

00:38:43.000 It was a long week.

00:38:45.000 It's a long week, man.

00:38:47.000 And it's rough, especially with, you know, just with the news and the riots.

00:38:52.000 And I think one of the big issues for me especially is that it's all the same every single day.

00:38:57.000 It does get a little repetitive.

00:38:59.000 And I've talked about it too.

00:38:59.000 I know.

00:39:01.000 It's like, I wake up and we just increment the number on the riots. 0.59

00:39:06.000 And then you get the same garbage narrative, the peaceful protests. 0.73

00:39:06.000 Right. 0.73

00:39:10.000 The peaceful protests are, you know, at it again.

00:39:13.000 It's like, What am I going to do?

00:39:16.000 Am I going to wake up every day and be like, the same thing that happened yesterday happened today, but again?

00:39:21.000 Yes.

00:39:21.000 Because no one's doing anything about it?

00:39:23.000 For 90 days?

00:39:25.000 Man, I know a lot of people, you know, they say like, it's really important, you're fighting the fake news narrative and stuff like this.

00:39:32.000 I mean, some chick got arrested. 1.00

00:39:34.000 Millie Weaver.

00:39:35.000 Yeah.

00:39:35.000 I don't know who she is.

00:39:37.000 And I don't, you know, I don't know what you got arrested for, but it's creepy stuff, man.

00:39:41.000 I don't know.

00:39:42.000 See, it was a grand jury indictment, right?

00:39:44.000 So this is something they've been working on for a while.

00:39:46.000 Well, that's what they said on the camera.

00:39:47.000 Yeah.

00:39:48.000 Something they've been working on for a while.

00:39:48.000 Right.

00:39:49.000 Burglary charge.

00:39:50.000 So we don't know what she did.

00:39:52.000 We really don't know anything about it because people are asking me, too.

00:39:54.000 I just, I am the tomato lady tonight.

00:39:56.000 That's how it's going to be.

00:39:58.000 I'm sorry, guys.

00:39:59.000 It's fine.

00:39:59.000 It's all good.

00:40:00.000 I'm just very badly sunburned.

00:40:02.000 I am very Irish, if you can tell.

00:40:03.000 Here, switch it back.

00:40:04.000 All right.

00:40:05.000 There's Tim.

00:40:06.000 He's fixing it.

00:40:07.000 I'm trying.

00:40:07.000 I'm trying to fix it.

00:40:09.000 Maybe we're going to fix it.

00:40:11.000 Thanks for bearing with us guys tonight is really fun fascinating.

00:40:15.000 Well, we're booking some guests.

00:40:16.000 Yes, we are.

00:40:17.000 Oh, man.

00:40:17.000 I'm excited about that, too Yeah soon, right?

00:40:20.000 Yeah.

00:40:21.000 Yeah, we're gonna be talking to some people about how they left the left stuff like that I know yeah, exactly.

00:40:27.000 It's the same thing that That comes up all the time.

00:40:31.000 Yeah Yeah, but everyone has a different story, so I'm really interested to hear what this person has to say and what we can kind of figure out.

00:40:37.000 And maybe it's something that they've seen in their family and friends, too.

00:40:42.000 That would be encouraging.

00:40:44.000 I would be happy to hear that if people who are liberals or even leftists were like, I'm really tired of this nonsense.

00:40:50.000 You know, someone had a shop.

00:40:52.000 I knew them.

00:40:53.000 It got knocked down in these riots, and I think it's crazy, so I'm going to vote for a certain orange-skinned gentleman. 1.00

00:40:59.000 Well, you're red.

00:41:00.000 Yeah, I know.

00:41:01.000 I wonder if it has to do with this.

00:41:03.000 I feel kinship with Mr. Trump there.

00:41:06.000 I don't know.

00:41:06.000 Maybe it's the UFO.

00:41:07.000 No, we got the lights on sometimes.

00:41:09.000 Let's see if it works.

00:41:10.000 No, you're still red.

00:41:12.000 But I'm happy.

00:41:12.000 Whatever.

00:41:12.000 It's all good.

00:41:13.000 You're red. 0.53

00:41:14.000 Actually, maybe it was the UFO.

00:41:16.000 It could be because you're wearing a lot of blue or something.

00:41:18.000 Possibly.

00:41:18.000 Let's talk about something funny.

00:41:19.000 Yes!

00:41:20.000 And, uh, check this out.

00:41:21.000 This is amazing.

00:41:23.000 James Lindsay!

00:41:25.000 Was it Death Scar?

00:41:26.000 Conceptual James.

00:41:27.000 Yeah.

00:41:27.000 Tweeted, LOL woke at Andrew Doyle.

00:41:30.000 For those that aren't familiar, Andrew Doyle runs a parody Twitter account called Titanium McGrath.

00:41:36.000 And when I saw this tweet, it says, lol woke, and he's quoting Bronco Bookstore, who said, We've put together a section at the Bronco Bookstore of books that focus on diversity, equity, and inclusivity.

00:41:50.000 Check it out and get the conversation started.

00:41:52.000 All books are also available on our website.

00:41:55.000 Can I talk about this a little bit?

00:41:56.000 Sure.

00:41:57.000 Because I feel like he kind of buried the lead a little bit on this one because this looks like a great display.

00:42:03.000 So if you click it and look at it, this is fantastic.

00:42:05.000 We can see Stacey Abrams.

00:42:07.000 We'll make the picture bigger.

00:42:08.000 Oh yeah, I can do that.

00:42:09.000 How to be an anti-racist by Ibram X. Kendi.

00:42:12.000 Wonderful instruction.

00:42:13.000 I'm just surprised, you know, white fragility isn't right here. 0.96

00:42:16.000 It's time to talk.

00:42:17.000 It's time to listen.

00:42:18.000 And this bookstore is so woke.

00:42:21.000 You want to know how woke they are, Tim?

00:42:24.000 Look at this book here in the right-hand corner.

00:42:26.000 It is a book that is literally called Woke.

00:42:29.000 And you guys know who it's by, right?

00:42:31.000 That is by our favorite blonde-haired bespectacled lady on Twitter, Ms. 1.00

00:42:36.000 Titania McGrath.

00:42:37.000 Titania.

00:42:38.000 My bad.

00:42:39.000 She's named after the nymph. 0.68

00:42:42.000 So this guy, Andrew Doyle, is a literature expert and he read a lot of Shakespeare.

00:42:47.000 And Titania, my gosh, is the queen of the fairies, so he picked her name, and he uses her to virtue signal loudly, and this is his book!

00:42:57.000 Woke!

00:42:58.000 It's satire!

00:42:59.000 Andrew Doyle is the man!

00:43:00.000 The joke is, I guess the humorous moment, is that they created this display of actual woke books, it's time to talk and listen, lead from the outside Stacey Abrams, And they put a satirical anti-SJW book which mocks them to no end, and we get Jarvis DuPont.

00:43:21.000 Jarvis DuPont is also a fake SJW on Twitter.

00:43:24.000 How many followers does he have?

00:43:26.000 He's her boyfriend, I guess.

00:43:28.000 Is he?

00:43:28.000 I don't know.

00:43:29.000 He's got 126,000 followers.

00:43:30.000 He says, I use my white privilege as a raft to transport minorities from the cave of oppression to the island of equal prosperity.

00:43:36.000 Trans.

00:43:37.000 She-her. 0.76

00:43:38.000 Lesbian. 0.99

00:43:40.000 We're gonna get in trouble.

00:43:41.000 Jarvis says, yes, good to see Titania McGrath getting at least a small fraction of the recognition she deserves.

00:43:48.000 Although disappointing to not see her on the plinth.

00:43:51.000 Do better next time, Bronco Bookstore.

00:43:54.000 Let me show you what happens when you open Titania McGrath.

00:43:57.000 Titania's following no one.

00:43:59.000 And that's what you get.

00:44:00.000 Whoa.

00:44:01.000 Yeah.

00:44:01.000 Temporary restriction.

00:44:03.000 They really don't like the prominence of Andrew Doyle's satirical creation.

00:44:09.000 I love it.

00:44:09.000 Check this out. Caution, this account is temporarily restricted.

00:44:12.000 Are we ready?

00:44:13.000 Let's view the profile.

00:44:14.000 So Titania's... 1.00

00:44:17.000 There she is.

00:44:17.000 She's so lovely with the glasses.

00:44:19.000 So, check this out.

00:44:20.000 You guys know Titania.

00:44:21.000 You probably know Titania.

00:44:22.000 We're gonna talk about Titania, I guess, for now, because I think it's hilarious this book is up there.

00:44:27.000 And there are some new jokes from Andrew Doyle.

00:44:31.000 Titania says, I have written a book for children.

00:44:33.000 It's called My First Little Book of Intersectional Activism.

00:44:37.000 The next generation must be taught to think exactly like me.

00:44:40.000 Pre-order immediately.

00:44:42.000 And Joseph Stalin is right there.

00:44:44.000 Oh my gosh.

00:44:45.000 So there's a bunch of names.

00:44:47.000 Brie Larson.

00:44:48.000 Where, really?

00:44:49.000 Down at the bottom left corner.

00:44:50.000 Oh yeah, Brie Larson.

00:44:51.000 Congratulations.

00:44:52.000 Greta Thunberg.

00:44:53.000 Joseph Stalin.

00:44:54.000 Oh my gosh.

00:44:55.000 Linda Sarsour.

00:44:56.000 Jessica Yanni.

00:44:58.000 Very cool.

00:44:58.000 Wow.

00:44:59.000 Just a who's who.

00:45:00.000 Yeah, somebody highlighted Joseph Stalin right there.

00:45:03.000 Joseph Stalin.

00:45:04.000 Oh, this is enjoyable.

00:45:05.000 I like it.

00:45:05.000 Those are your intersectional activists.

00:45:07.000 And there was a, I'll show you a funny tweet from Titania.

00:45:11.000 Where is that one?

00:45:13.000 Here we go.

00:45:14.000 Future generations will thank us if we successfully eliminate heterosexuality. 1.00

00:45:19.000 Yes.

00:45:19.000 Preach.

00:45:20.000 Wait, how does that work?

00:45:20.000 Queen.

00:45:21.000 It doesn't.

00:45:22.000 That's exactly the point.

00:45:24.000 I know.

00:45:24.000 So anyway, you guys know, you probably have heard of Titania.

00:45:28.000 We've talked about Titania before.

00:45:29.000 We actually did this big thing where we went through a whole bunch of posts where Titania called out everything is racist.

00:45:36.000 Yes.

00:45:36.000 So again, this is Andrew Doyle who runs the account.

00:45:39.000 It's a brilliant creation.

00:45:41.000 And he actually put together, through Titania of course, all of these articles about how literally everything is racist.

00:45:47.000 Yeah.

00:45:48.000 Like, I'm not kidding.

00:45:49.000 He does satire, but these articles were real.

00:45:52.000 Yeah.

00:45:52.000 And depressing, because it was everything.

00:45:55.000 Right, so it's like not seeing color is racist, seeing color is racist. 0.99

00:45:59.000 Women are racist, apparently. 1.00

00:46:01.000 Women are? 1.00

00:46:02.000 Just in general.

00:46:03.000 They're all racist. 0.62

00:46:04.000 Yeah, you know, 3.5 billion people. 1.00

00:46:05.000 Racist.

00:46:07.000 What?

00:46:08.000 That was one of the articles on the list.

00:46:08.000 Yeah, remember?

00:46:10.000 Just women are racist? 1.00

00:46:11.000 Yeah, women in general, I remember thinking. 0.99

00:46:13.000 I mean, well, they think everyone is racist, so if that's the case... Anyway, the reason why I'm showing you the absurdity of saying future generations won't exist... But that's what ends up getting propped up on... That's what they end up putting... Is this a joke?

00:46:31.000 No, I don't think it is.

00:46:32.000 One of those is especially helpful.

00:46:34.000 Yes.

00:46:36.000 This makes me feel better, a little bit, because things have been... what?

00:46:40.000 A little down.

00:46:41.000 But I really, really like, and I'm going to point out, I hope, so everyone else can enjoy this with me, is the title of Stacey Arum's book, which is Lead from the Outside.

00:46:49.000 Oof.

00:46:50.000 Which implies that she is not the governor of Georgia, which makes me very sad.

00:46:55.000 I thought she said she was.

00:46:56.000 I thought she was, too.

00:46:58.000 That was 2018.

00:46:59.000 She has not let go of the dream.

00:47:01.000 But apparently, based on the title of her book, she's not.

00:47:04.000 How could Biden and Kamala actually win?

00:47:09.000 Dude, I don't see it.

00:47:10.000 And here's why.

00:47:11.000 I was thinking, who in the world is less likable than Hillary Clinton? 0.97

00:47:18.000 And I can only think of one person.

00:47:19.000 You know who it was?

00:47:21.000 Kamala?

00:47:21.000 Yeah, it was Kamala Harris.

00:47:23.000 I was like, am I going to guess?

00:47:24.000 Yeah, you have to guess.

00:47:25.000 Sorry.

00:47:26.000 When they called her name as the choice for Joe Biden, I was like, You know what?

00:47:32.000 I feel good.

00:47:33.000 I'm feeling good.

00:47:34.000 That made my day good.

00:47:35.000 Everybody was laughing.

00:47:36.000 We did a video.

00:47:36.000 Dude.

00:47:37.000 Everybody was laughing.

00:47:38.000 I did like four videos on it.

00:47:40.000 It was like everybody kind of knew he was going to do it.

00:47:43.000 Yeah.

00:47:44.000 And then it was all just like Twitter was it was it was a rainbow hand holding kumbaya kind of moment for everybody.

00:47:52.000 Everyone agreed.

00:47:52.000 It was fantastic.

00:47:53.000 Everyone agreed.

00:47:54.000 Literally everyone.

00:47:55.000 It was like everyone agreeing about certain incidents in that one jail that one time not happening.

00:47:55.000 Everyone agreed.

00:48:00.000 There was a really funny tweet.

00:48:02.000 I think the Reagan battalion said that the RNC newsletter talks about liberals or whatever, you know, ragging on Kamala.

00:48:10.000 Yeah.

00:48:11.000 And it was like some Young Turks people and like Kyle Kalinsky and then like Michael Tracy.

00:48:16.000 And then a bunch of people started laughing, like, none of these people are like actual Democratic-based voters.

00:48:21.000 Yep.

00:48:22.000 And Kyle Kalinske responded, he's a progressive commentator for those that don't know, wait till the Republicans see what I say about them.

00:48:28.000 I thought it was hilarious.

00:48:30.000 But it was it was funny because you actually created a unity moment.

00:48:35.000 You know, I think Kamala is really something special and I appreciate and respect her.

00:48:39.000 Hold on, what did you just call her?

00:48:40.000 Kamala.

00:48:41.000 Yeah.

00:48:43.000 Yeah.

00:48:43.000 I quickly corrected it there.

00:48:44.000 I have a hard time with her name.

00:48:45.000 You have to understand that pronouncing her name wrong, her name wrong is racism.

00:48:49.000 Not only racism, but sexism, because it shows you don't respect whamen.

00:48:53.000 Whamen? 1.00

00:48:53.000 What was I saying? 1.00

00:48:54.000 Oh. 0.92

00:48:57.000 Well, it's because it's your fault for being a bigot.

00:49:00.000 My racism blinded me and I forgot what I was going to say.

00:49:02.000 I'm sorry.

00:49:03.000 Kamala is wonderful.

00:49:04.000 Did you see?

00:49:04.000 Yes.

00:49:05.000 No.

00:49:06.000 No, wait, I remembered.

00:49:07.000 Okay.

00:49:08.000 What I really like about her is that she has found a way to be awful to every single demographic in different ways. 0.61

00:49:15.000 It's really, I really think that's what's going to bring us together as a country to vote against Joe Biden in November.

00:49:21.000 I think maybe they were like, what, what can we do to make the worst possible, like who are the worst people in the world like that we have right now?

00:49:31.000 Oh, I don't know.

00:49:32.000 No, they did.

00:49:33.000 They found it.

00:49:33.000 No, they did.

00:49:35.000 Kamala and Biden.

00:49:37.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:49:37.000 I think you're right.

00:49:37.000 Who are the worst possible candidates?

00:49:39.000 The least charismatic.

00:49:40.000 Everybody.

00:49:41.000 Joe Biden's fallen asleep.

00:49:42.000 Yep. 1.00

00:49:42.000 And Kamala is is cop-mala and she's a despotic lunatic. 1.00

00:49:47.000 Yeah, it's the issue isn't that she is a cop. 0.98

00:49:50.000 It's really not.

00:49:51.000 She's everything that's wrong with everything that they complain about, about police. 0.97

00:49:55.000 She has done it all.

00:49:56.000 She's really made corruption like her specialty. 1.00

00:49:59.000 I mean.

00:50:00.000 Well, it's like we were saying the other day, you can get non-policing and kind of overboard.

00:50:07.000 Yep.

00:50:08.000 So I was making fun of Kamala and somebody tweeted at me that Tim is no longer tough on crime, pro-Trump or whatever.

00:50:14.000 And I was like, first of all, no.

00:50:17.000 Like, there's a difference between saying, yes, police, please arrest that man who is lighting that building on fire with people inside.

00:50:23.000 Or like, when the dude showed up in Tacoma with the rifle, throwing firebombs, it's like, please do not hurt these men who are staying outside this building.

00:50:23.000 Yes.

00:50:30.000 And please, police, and, you know, help stop this man who's throwing firebombs and shooting at people.

00:50:36.000 There's a difference between that and Kamala Harris, who's like, I'm, you know, she's cackling about how homeless mothers are being locked up because their kids aren't going to school. 0.99

00:50:46.000 Yep, she's joking about smoking marijuana because of her background while people that she put in jail for marijuana offenses are literally languishing in jail if they're not fighting forest fires because she thought it would be a good investment to make them work for nothing and to lengthen their sentences. 0.86

00:51:01.000 Not nothing, like a dollar an hour.

00:51:02.000 A dollar an hour.

00:51:03.000 Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm sorry.

00:51:04.000 I repent.

00:51:05.000 I'm sorry, Lydia, I think you're wrong.

00:51:07.000 Yeah?

00:51:08.000 Yeah, I think you're wrong.

00:51:09.000 How so?

00:51:10.000 You said more unlikable than Hillary. 1.00

00:51:12.000 Ooh.

00:51:13.000 I think Hillary is- Are you challenging me on that?

00:51:15.000 I am, well, I guess if I had to make an assessment on the point system of unlikability- Okay, yeah, let's do it.

00:51:22.000 I think Hillary is way more unlikable than Kamala. 1.00

00:51:24.000 Yeah?

00:51:25.000 What makes you say that?

00:51:26.000 It probably has more to do with the fact that we've seen more of Hillary. 0.98

00:51:30.000 Okay, yeah, so that's fair.

00:51:32.000 But, but, I think there was that comment that one time, that one time, they're talking about Julian Assange and Hillary was reported to have said, can't we just drone this guy?

00:51:42.000 And then I think their response was like, it was a joke.

00:51:45.000 No, it wasn't.

00:51:46.000 It's all they did during the Obama administration.

00:51:48.000 What was it?

00:51:49.000 We came, we saw he died.

00:51:50.000 Yeah.

00:51:51.000 Fantastic commentary.

00:51:52.000 That's just wonderful.

00:51:54.000 I like to imagine, like, Obama, he's got, like, his, he's got, he's, he's, like, in work attire, so he's got, like, a button-up shirt with his, his sleeves are rolled up.

00:51:59.000 Of course they are.

00:52:00.000 And he's, like, sitting on the couch with his feet up on the coffee table, and he's, like, texting.

00:52:03.000 Mm-hmm.

00:52:04.000 And then, like, Hillary's sitting, like, smoking a cigarette.

00:52:06.000 And then Obama's just, like, oh, man, there's, like, some guy in the Middle East.

00:52:10.000 And then Hillary's, like, I'll just drown him. 0.95

00:52:12.000 He's, like, all right.

00:52:13.000 Presses the button.

00:52:13.000 Just, like, that, that willy-nilly, just, like... Oops, it was a 16-year-old American.

00:52:18.000 Yep, doesn't bother them at all.

00:52:19.000 That was Obama.

00:52:20.000 Yeah, maybe you're right.

00:52:20.000 Maybe we just need to see more of Kamala.

00:52:22.000 My friends, I have really good news for all of you.

00:52:24.000 Yeah, yeah, I'm excited.

00:52:25.000 You look thrilled.

00:52:26.000 What?

00:52:27.000 Yeah, what is it?

00:52:27.000 Do you know what the good news is?

00:52:28.000 I do.

00:52:28.000 You do know what it is?

00:52:30.000 I think I do.

00:52:30.000 Hillary Clinton is back, baby!

00:52:32.000 Yes! 0.94

00:52:32.000 Speak of the devil! 0.94

00:52:33.000 Hillary Clinton is back!

00:52:34.000 She shall appear.

00:52:35.000 Hillary Clinton says she's ready to serve in a Biden administration, former Secretary of State, and defeated 2016 candidate, Hintz, at a return to D.C.

00:52:44.000 and wants to help fix the U.S.

00:52:46.000 Fix the U.S. 0.76

00:52:47.000 Thank you, Lord.

00:52:49.000 We need Hillary to help us fix the U.S. 1.00

00:52:52.000 Oh no!

00:52:53.000 We do.

00:52:53.000 We got that Cheeto dictator in office, man.

00:52:55.000 And Drumpf.

00:52:58.000 We got the great New York Times.

00:53:00.000 That's right.

00:53:00.000 I got a source on that now.

00:53:01.000 Finally calling out Drumpf.

00:53:04.000 They got him.

00:53:05.000 Hillary Clinton is back.

00:53:06.000 He'll never recover.

00:53:08.000 Hillary Clinton says she's ready to serve in a Biden administration.

00:53:13.000 The former 2016 Democratic presidential candidate was speaking during the 19th Represents Summit when she made the remarks.

00:53:21.000 I am ready to help in any way and anyway and in any way I can because I think this will be a moment where every American, I don't care what party you are, I don't care what age, race, gender, I don't care.

00:53:33.000 Every American should want to fix our country, Clinton said.

00:53:36.000 So if you're asked to serve, you should certainly consider that.

00:53:41.000 Clinton served alongside Joe Biden in the Obama administration as Secretary of State.

00:53:44.000 Her tenure was highly criticized by Republicans who questioned her handling of the 2012 Benghazi terror attack.

00:53:51.000 I'm thrilled to welcome Kamala Harris to a historic—a historic?

00:53:55.000 You told me it was an historic.

00:53:56.000 I did, and they're wrong.

00:53:58.000 A historic Democratic ticket, Clinton tweeted Tuesday.

00:54:00.000 She tweeted wrong.

00:54:01.000 Haha.

00:54:01.000 She tweeted wrong.

00:54:02.000 She's already proven herself to be an incredible public servant and leader.

00:54:05.000 And I know she'll be a strong party to Joe Biden.

00:54:07.000 Please join me in having her back.

00:54:09.000 Blah, blah, blah.

00:54:10.000 We get it.

00:54:10.000 She announced.

00:54:11.000 Okay, listen.

00:54:13.000 I did a segment on my main channel talking about the potential for history repeating itself.

00:54:19.000 Yes.

00:54:20.000 Because they keep bringing up Mondale.

00:54:23.000 They did an article.

00:54:25.000 It was the New York Times, right?

00:54:27.000 Not sure.

00:54:28.000 It was, what's her name?

00:54:30.000 I can't remember the name of the woman who did this.

00:54:32.000 But she wrote about how it's been 36 years since a man had a woman on the ticket together or whatever.

00:54:39.000 And Hillary Clinton responded with like, I'm pretty sure Tim Kaine and I didn't hallucinate the 2016 cycle.

00:54:45.000 And I thought it was actually really funny that they screwed it up that bad because Hillary is a woman. 1.00

00:54:51.000 But anyway, they fixed it and they send it back to Mondale.

00:54:58.000 Because Walter Mondale had Geraldine Ferrero, I think I'm pronouncing her name right.

00:55:02.000 Yeah, something like that.

00:55:02.000 As his running mate.

00:55:04.000 And they're likening what's happening now, a bit, to that race.

00:55:08.000 That is an interesting race to compare to.

00:55:11.000 A 49 state landslide.

00:55:12.000 So anyway, anyway, I'm rehashing this specifically for a reason.

00:55:16.000 If there was anything that could guarantee, in my opinion, a 49 state landslide, anything, first, we have mass riots going on for like 76 days in Portland.

00:55:28.000 Check, yep, got that.

00:55:30.000 Get this, most of you, you may know this, I know there's a lot of people who, you'll come here, you will hear me say similar things I said on my earlier segments, but a lot of people come just for the live show, so I'll tell you straight up.

00:55:42.000 The state police in Oregon were dispatched Right.

00:55:45.000 And when they were, the federal police officers went back in the courthouse and stayed there.

00:55:50.000 And then all of a sudden the media started screaming, it's over, as soon as the feds

00:55:53.000 left, peace.

00:55:54.000 Even though it's not true, the riots continued, they went to residential neighborhoods.

00:55:57.000 The state police just announced they're pulling out because the prosecutors won't arrest anybody.

00:56:03.000 So now Trump gets to come out and laugh.

00:56:06.000 Told you so.

00:56:07.000 Because the violence did not stop.

00:56:09.000 And he's going to have to come back out again.

00:56:11.000 You've got the violence in Chicago, they're locking down the city all this week.

00:56:11.000 Yep.

00:56:15.000 Oh, they are?

00:56:16.000 All this week.

00:56:16.000 Whoa.

00:56:17.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:56:18.000 I didn't realize that.

00:56:18.000 Yeah, and Michael Tracy, journalist, tweeted, don't you think people, like, need to know what's happening?

00:56:25.000 Where's the national reporters explaining why Chicago is doing this?

00:56:29.000 I couldn't imagine being in Chicago right now.

00:56:32.000 Donald Trump says New York is in play.

00:56:34.000 He says he's gonna try and win New York for the first time since Reagan.

00:56:37.000 That would be crazy.

00:56:38.000 For my lifetime, I was not alive when Reagan won, okay?

00:56:42.000 And then it's, you know, for the most of my life, we've had this pretty basic, you know, electoral pattern.

00:56:48.000 So anyway, to my point, you've got mass riots.

00:56:52.000 They're getting worse.

00:56:53.000 Trump was right about Portland.

00:56:56.000 And if Trump sent in the feds to Chicago, like the media lied and claimed he did, the looting would not have happened.

00:57:03.000 The feds would have been able to come out, but instead everything gets tore up.

00:57:07.000 New York is apocalyptic.

00:57:10.000 It's a ghost town.

00:57:12.000 It really is.

00:57:13.000 How many people have left now?

00:57:14.000 I think it was the blue thing behind me.

00:57:16.000 I think I fixed it.

00:57:17.000 You fixed it?

00:57:18.000 I'm not red anymore.

00:57:18.000 You're no longer red?

00:57:19.000 It was, right now they're saying 13,000 empty apartments.

00:57:19.000 Yeah, I like it.

00:57:23.000 Yep.

00:57:24.000 It's a record since like, I don't know, back in the 70s or something?

00:57:28.000 And companies are leaving?

00:57:29.000 Or like 54 or something.

00:57:30.000 Yeah, companies are leaving.

00:57:31.000 That's insane.

00:57:32.000 So look.

00:57:33.000 And this is due to just general mismanagement.

00:57:36.000 But you've got politicians, these Democrats, actively supporting the Black Lives Matter movement.

00:57:42.000 Let me tell you something.

00:57:45.000 I was gonna make a joke.

00:57:47.000 And I'm gonna make the joke.

00:57:48.000 But then I'm going to be serious.

00:57:51.000 Hillary Clinton.

00:57:53.000 Added on top of the pile of economic collapse, mass riots, Kamala Harris and Biden, gaffes, despotism, and then they're like, we really need to make sure Trump landslides.

00:58:05.000 Let's throw Hillary Clinton on top. 1.00

00:58:07.000 That actually makes sense.

00:58:08.000 And now it's like, okay, that's it.

00:58:10.000 The avalanche started.

00:58:11.000 It reminds me almost of those videos where people will stack stuff on people while they're sleeping.

00:58:16.000 You ever see that?

00:58:16.000 Yeah, I've seen people do that with babies, I think.

00:58:18.000 It's like a bunch of blocks on them.

00:58:20.000 It's actually really funny and horrible to watch because they don't usually wake up.

00:58:23.000 They're completely still and silent.

00:58:25.000 Well, okay, babies.

00:58:28.000 Maybe a bit too far.

00:58:30.000 Babies are okay, but don't do it to cats. 0.97

00:58:32.000 It's funny.

00:58:32.000 They'll be like a sleeping animal, and they'll put a cup on its head, and then they'll start stacking things.

00:58:38.000 So when they wake up, they'll do it to people.

00:58:40.000 That's what it feels like is going on.

00:58:42.000 The American people were sleeping and ignoring everything.

00:58:45.000 And then while they were ignoring everything, not voting, and people were stacking things on top of them, and then finally, COVID and the riots was like a Kramer door, you know, you've seen Seinfeld, right?

00:58:56.000 Yeah.

00:58:57.000 He like pops it open and slides in, he's like, oh!

00:59:00.000 And then that shock has that person sleeping covered in all this awful garbage, waking up and going, ah!

00:59:04.000 And then garbage flies everywhere.

00:59:05.000 That's what it feels like.

00:59:07.000 Regular Americans were sitting around. 0.90

00:59:09.000 They weren't paying attention to what was going on.

00:59:11.000 Everything started getting worse.

00:59:12.000 All this stuff was being stacked on top of them.

00:59:14.000 And then the riots, bam!

00:59:16.000 They wake up and they're like, whoa!

00:59:18.000 There's trash everywhere.

00:59:19.000 You know what?

00:59:19.000 You know what they're going to do with all that garbage that's piled up on them?

00:59:22.000 They are going to kick it clear across the room.

00:59:24.000 And I'm not convinced that's not what's going to happen in November.

00:59:27.000 I think it's going to be a blowout.

00:59:29.000 Well, I'll put it this way.

00:59:31.000 You've got this person finally wakes up and there's garbage everywhere.

00:59:35.000 And they see the people who are stacking the garbage are kicking and jumping around and stomping in garbage.

00:59:40.000 And they got one roommate who's basically like...

00:59:43.000 No, no, no.

00:59:44.000 It's okay.

00:59:45.000 The other roommate's angry, saying, I'm gonna get somebody to come clean this up.

00:59:49.000 You guys knock it off!

00:59:50.000 And they're gonna be like, I'm with this guy.

00:59:52.000 Like, clean up the garbage, man.

00:59:53.000 Knock it off.

00:59:54.000 Right.

00:59:54.000 Whose idea was this?

00:59:55.000 They woke up.

00:59:57.000 So many people.

00:59:58.000 It's like we were talking about a moment ago.

00:59:59.000 People I know who are tweeting, who normally didn't.

01:00:02.000 They woke up.

01:00:04.000 They've been, like, activated.

01:00:06.000 And I can't imagine they're gonna go out and support Joe Biden.

01:00:08.000 And you know what?

01:00:09.000 I don't think that Hillary's new hairstyle is personable enough for people to be like, you know what? 0.96

01:00:14.000 I forgive her.

01:00:15.000 I've forgotten everything she did that was wrong.

01:00:17.000 Look at this hair.

01:00:18.000 Like, seriously.

01:00:19.000 Look at this little mom guilt trip about doing what's right for your country. 1.00

01:00:23.000 No, no, no.

01:00:24.000 That's not going to work.

01:00:25.000 I'm having flashbacks to 2016 and I don't like it.

01:00:28.000 It's making me really unhappy.

01:00:29.000 I don't think she's going to do anything with him.

01:00:31.000 You don't think so?

01:00:32.000 No, I think she's desperate.

01:00:33.000 I think that her voice is toxic and I don't know if she doesn't realize it or if she needs like a new press whatever press person to like rest the phone from her grip because that's she shouldn't be talking right now. 0.66

01:00:44.000 Like Kamala Harris.

01:00:48.000 Do you think they're trying to make Kamala Harris look likable by bringing Hillary into the picture?

01:00:52.000 Oh yeah, it's like that Family Guy joke I brought up before.

01:00:54.000 Oh yeah? 0.96

01:00:54.000 Yeah, where the studio hires an ugly woman to stand next to Meg so that she looks better by relativity or whatever. 0.96

01:01:00.000 That's it. 0.98

01:01:00.000 By comparison. 0.98

01:01:01.000 That's it. 0.99

01:01:02.000 And then she pulls the ugly woman next to her. 1.00

01:01:04.000 The guy walks up and he goes, hey Meg, did you get less ugly? 0.99

01:01:06.000 She's like, yeah!

01:01:07.000 She pulls the girl. 1.00

01:01:07.000 Hey Kamala, did you get a little more likable next to Hillary Clinton? 1.00

01:01:10.000 You're standing next to Hillary Clinton, man.

01:01:12.000 That's right, man.

01:01:12.000 And that's an easy one.

01:01:14.000 So look, that's a joke, okay?

01:01:16.000 To be completely fair, it's a joke.

01:01:18.000 I don't think Hillary's gonna do anything, maybe. 0.72

01:01:21.000 But I'm gonna be serious now, because the joke I was making was that I said if there was one thing that would guarantee Trump a landslide, it would be them bringing on Hillary Clinton.

01:01:31.000 I don't think that's it.

01:01:32.000 I don't think we have it pulled up, but I was thinking about it, and I'm like, maybe I shouldn't make this joke, because the reality is, New York announced they wouldn't be doing the 9-11 memorial, the light show.

01:01:44.000 And it is... They're not going to do it because of COVID concerns.

01:01:50.000 My understanding is that another non-profit stepped up to make sure it happens.

01:01:54.000 Yeah, they're going to do it by any means necessary, they were saying.

01:01:57.000 They're like, this is not something that we're willing to put aside.

01:02:00.000 And I don't think they refer to, for example, the BLM mark in the street or anything, but they were very serious about it.

01:02:06.000 They're like, I think it was the SBA.

01:02:11.000 Some association of police officers and they were like, we're not going to let this slide, which I thought was great.

01:02:16.000 I'm really happy to see that.

01:02:17.000 Like I'm happy to see normal people saying this is something that's important and you're not just going to take it away from us.

01:02:23.000 Because if you're healthy enough to be raising cane in the streets and painting stuff on the streets, then why are you telling us that we can't do this?

01:02:30.000 You could literally just push the button.

01:02:31.000 Yeah, it looks like this.

01:02:32.000 It's a memorial for the Twin Towers.

01:02:34.000 And they're like, we can't do it because coronavirus.

01:02:37.000 Oh, yeah.

01:02:37.000 Which is a lie.

01:02:38.000 A total lie.

01:02:39.000 Total lie.

01:02:40.000 Like, why?

01:02:42.000 What's their reasoning?

01:02:44.000 It's COVID.

01:02:44.000 They say it requires a large team to pull off, and it's a lie.

01:02:47.000 And the reason I say it's a lie is because they're marching with Black Lives Matter. 0.91

01:02:52.000 They're using city resources to paint the ground.

01:02:55.000 I gotta be honest.

01:02:56.000 This, in my opinion, is... If this story, you know, goes viral, I really don't think Biden and Harris could win.

01:03:07.000 I mean, first, Trump needs to address it.

01:03:10.000 Yeah.

01:03:10.000 And I wonder what Biden and Harris would actually say about it.

01:03:15.000 Nothing.

01:03:15.000 Absolutely nothing.

01:03:16.000 They will not address this at all.

01:03:18.000 To be fair, Joe Biden said the Antifa people should be arrested, you know, and charged.

01:03:24.000 I will make a gentle person's bet with you.

01:03:27.000 Gentle person's?

01:03:27.000 You're so politically correct.

01:03:28.000 I am indeed.

01:03:29.000 A gentle person's bet, and you guys are welcome to take me up on this, that they will not say a single word about this.

01:03:35.000 But will Trump?

01:03:36.000 I think he will.

01:03:37.000 And it might be late.

01:03:38.000 It might be too late to do anything.

01:03:40.000 But I think he'll bring it up at some point.

01:03:42.000 Right now, there's... So, politically, the opportunity to address it is now.

01:03:48.000 Yeah.

01:03:48.000 Because apparently there's other groups that are going to step in and they're going to make sure it happens.

01:03:51.000 Yeah.

01:03:52.000 But I gotta tell you this, man.

01:03:54.000 What do you think the average American's gonna be thinking when they see Bill de Blasio painting Black Lives Matter and then New York City saying, no 9-11 memorial?

01:04:03.000 It's obviously inconsistent.

01:04:05.000 I'm not saying Bill de Blasio is the one, you know, orchestrating the shutdown of the memorial.

01:04:11.000 What I'm saying is, you have a city where the mayor can defy the law with no permit, paint his political slogan in front of someone else's building, well, they're usually someone else's building, but in front of Trump's building, then have taxpayer resources fund the cops who are going to stand there, And we can't make the 9-11 memorial happen.

01:04:30.000 That's a horrifying indictment on our country and the people of New York.

01:04:35.000 But, that being said, of course people immediately stepped up to try and make sure this does happen.

01:04:40.000 Well, I don't know if it's still going to happen, but they're straight up saying, so for now it's not.

01:04:45.000 And I forgot what the other non-profit is, they said they're going to do whatever they have to to make it work right.

01:04:50.000 And you know, Bill de Blasio was talking about how Black Lives Matter transcends politics.

01:04:55.000 You want to talk about something that actually transcends politics?

01:04:59.000 Commemorating 9-11.

01:05:01.000 Because that affected everyone, it brought the whole country together, and it still is something that every single person in every single party should remember.

01:05:08.000 Yeah.

01:05:08.000 Like, this is not something to mess around with.

01:05:10.000 And I hope that people remember it, honestly.

01:05:13.000 Because that's something that we should...

01:05:17.000 It kind of feels like the country's falling apart, and if we could come together on something that would actually make us feel some kind of brotherhood with our neighbors, that'd be great.

01:05:26.000 It should.

01:05:27.000 Do you know the date of the Pearl Harbor bombings?

01:05:29.000 Yeah.

01:05:30.000 What is it?

01:05:30.000 December 7, 1944.

01:05:31.000 See, I don't remember the date.

01:05:33.000 Do you remember that date?

01:05:34.000 Nope.

01:05:34.000 It was a day that will live on in infamy.

01:05:35.000 I know.

01:05:36.000 And in Chicago, when you take the train, I think it's the Orange Line train.

01:05:41.000 from the south side into the loop. There was a building I always remember

01:05:45.000 that it had Pearl Harbor and 9-11 painted on it and it was like never forget and it showed

01:05:51.000 both.

01:05:51.000 That's cool.

01:05:53.000 Yeah.

01:05:53.000 I don't know if it's still there.

01:05:54.000 Yeah, I'd be curious.

01:05:55.000 We should pull up Google Maps.

01:05:57.000 Well, it was a train line.

01:05:58.000 You might be able to.

01:06:00.000 But I remember seeing it.

01:06:01.000 And, you know, I didn't remember the date.

01:06:04.000 Obviously, I remember 9-11.

01:06:05.000 I was alive.

01:06:06.000 I was, you know, 14 or whatever, watching it happen.

01:06:09.000 And when it came to Pearl Harbor, I don't know.

01:06:12.000 Was it the 70s?

01:06:13.000 What's that?

01:06:14.000 No, no, no.

01:06:14.000 What was the date you said?

01:06:15.000 Okay, it was December 7th, 1944.

01:06:16.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:06:18.000 Yeah, so I think the reason I remember is because I used to work with old people.

01:06:21.000 Yeah.

01:06:22.000 And I would talk to people about what they were doing and I asked them what they were doing on the day that Pearl Harbor happened.

01:06:28.000 And some of them could tell me.

01:06:30.000 And that was really interesting because it was so different from 9-11.

01:06:34.000 But the emotion was definitely still there.

01:06:36.000 And I was like, so you guys weren't like sitting around the TV like we were, but you were listening to it on the radio, huh?

01:06:42.000 That's really interesting.

01:06:43.000 And this lady I was talking to, I don't know. 0.51

01:06:46.000 was like, yeah, it brought everyone together very similar to the way 9-11 did. And I think that they're, do they want

01:06:53.000 the division that we have in this country? Do they think this is good? Is this what they're trying to fight by

01:06:58.000 getting rid of the 9-11 memorial? I don't know. I'm just spitballing. I don't know. I'm just theorizing. But the

01:07:04.000 reason I brought it up and asked you if you knew the date.

01:07:09.000 Yeah, sorry about that. Yeah. I I have no idea why I said 70s.

01:07:10.000 I don't know what I was thinking.

01:07:11.000 A little off.

01:07:13.000 Very, very off.

01:07:14.000 Because you said 7th and I was like, wait, what did you say?

01:07:16.000 Did you say 70s?

01:07:18.000 No, that's clearly wrong.

01:07:22.000 I was thinking about, we're going to have a generation of young people that were either born after 9-11, which is a lot of people right now.

01:07:29.000 Yeah, a lot of them.

01:07:30.000 Like the TikTok generation.

01:07:31.000 Oh gosh.

01:07:32.000 And there's going to be a lot of people who were born at a certain point where they were too young to remember it.

01:07:38.000 Yeah.

01:07:38.000 And they're not going to remember it.

01:07:41.000 And so when that point hits, and I think in maybe 10 or 20 years, you will see the memorial lights get turned off one night.

01:07:48.000 And that's a night when people are going to be like, I don't know, whatever.

01:07:51.000 Right now it's not.

01:07:52.000 That makes me sad.

01:07:53.000 Yeah.

01:07:54.000 I mean, do we still do anything for Pearl Harbor?

01:07:57.000 Like in this regard?

01:07:58.000 No.

01:07:58.000 Maybe, maybe, maybe, you know, in Pearl Harbor.

01:08:01.000 You know, I think, I think politicians do.

01:08:03.000 And at Pearl Harbor, they actually do have memorial like tours and stuff.

01:08:07.000 I think they give speeches on Pearl Harbor Day.

01:08:09.000 Not that I can recall any of them immediately offhand.

01:08:12.000 Yeah.

01:08:13.000 But I think they do commemorate it at the kind of national level.

01:08:16.000 It's kind of crazy, you know?

01:08:17.000 Weird.

01:08:18.000 But I was reading this earlier, and I'm just... I'm just offended.

01:08:22.000 You know what I mean?

01:08:24.000 There should be no circumstance where this story shouldn't need to be reported.

01:08:29.000 The city... I believe the city should be able... So, let me read the context real quick, just so I can, you know, properly explain what's going on.

01:08:37.000 The New York Post says, the iconic lower Manhattan 9-11 memorial display that features twin beams

01:08:41.000 of light to honor victims of the terror attacks will not shine this year over coronavirus

01:08:45.000 concerns, organizers said Thursday.

01:08:47.000 The annual Tribute in Light display requires a large crew to pull off, the 9-11 memorial

01:08:53.000 and museum said on its website, posing health risks this year that were far too great.

01:08:58.000 The museum said it was an incredibly difficult decision to nix the lights, but announced

01:09:03.000 an alternative citywide initiative to commemorate the 19th anniversary of September 11.

01:09:09.000 The new plan, dubbed the Tribute in Lights, will feature buildings across the city lighting

01:09:12.000 up their facades and spires in blue on 9-11.

01:09:15.000 In a spirit of unity and remembrance, the city will come together for a Tribute in Lights

01:09:19.000 to inspire the world and honor the promise to never forget.

01:09:22.000 Many iconic New York City buildings will be lighting their spires and facades in blue

01:09:26.000 to honor those killed on 9-11.

01:09:28.000 The decision to cancel the Tribute in Light memorial comes after the museum this year

01:09:31.000 also scrapped the in-person reading of 9-11 victims' names at the annual Ground Zero

01:09:36.000 ceremony.

01:09:38.000 But last week, a non-profit, the Tunnel to Towers Foundations, announced its own separate

01:09:42.000 Lower Manhattan ceremony where select family members of 9-11 victims will be permitted

01:09:46.000 to read the names of their loved ones.

01:09:48.000 I think we're in trouble.

01:09:52.000 It's scary to me that they will paint Black Lives Matter in the street and arrest anyone

01:09:56.000 who dare oppose them without permitting, and they will not read the names of 9-11 victims.

01:10:02.000 To me, it really feels like they're just pulling for division, and I hate to see that, but it's making me really suspicious.

01:10:09.000 What else would you call this?

01:10:11.000 Well, I know it's not the city that's deciding it.

01:10:15.000 Right.

01:10:16.000 But don't you, like, isn't it fair to say that there's some kind of cultural problem we're having?

01:10:21.000 If there's no resources for this event, why couldn't Bill de Blasio, without permit, pull taxpayer funding to guarantee the reading of the 9-11 victims' names?

01:10:31.000 So it shows misprioritization for sure.

01:10:34.000 And it shows that people like Bill de Blasio just have way too much power, which I think we already knew.

01:10:40.000 But this is really... They're not supposed to have that power.

01:10:43.000 Of course not.

01:10:44.000 The problem is the people who just go along with whatever they say.

01:10:46.000 Right.

01:10:46.000 What are you going to throw a fit and make something happen?

01:10:49.000 You know, how do you prevent something like that?

01:10:53.000 Because our system is, of course, naturally hierarchical.

01:10:57.000 And you have police.

01:10:57.000 They're like, I don't know, my boss had to go do this.

01:10:59.000 It's like, well, do you know what you're doing is illegal, right?

01:11:01.000 Doesn't matter, my boss had to do it.

01:11:03.000 You know what?

01:11:03.000 I think I'm gonna sound like I'm beating a dead horse and I think you're probably gonna agree with me but I'll say it again.

01:11:07.000 I think that the reason we're having this problem is because it's been good for so long.

01:11:12.000 It's been too good for too long.

01:11:13.000 We've forgotten what it's like.

01:11:15.000 We assume that things are the way they are and that everyone's got our best interests at heart and we've forgotten that, you know, our great-great-grandparents were pioneers and that our grandparents fought in wars and That this is actually something special and different.

01:11:29.000 We don't travel that much.

01:11:30.000 We don't see other countries.

01:11:31.000 So we're like, all right.

01:11:32.000 So this creep, we don't pay any attention to it.

01:11:34.000 We just kowtow to whenever someone tells us you're going to do this.

01:11:37.000 It doesn't matter if it breaks constitutional law or whatever.

01:11:40.000 We're going to do it because that's the way things are.

01:11:42.000 Oh man.

01:11:43.000 So what you're saying is the people of this country weren't sleeping while their roommates were stacking objects on top of them.

01:11:50.000 They were awake.

01:11:51.000 Yeah.

01:11:51.000 But stoned.

01:11:53.000 Yes, I think so.

01:11:54.000 that they were like and immediately all of the stoners are like how dare you

01:11:58.000 I'd push the dislike button if I didn't have to get up I'm kidding I'm kidding it's a joke

01:12:03.000 I think you're right though because sleep is something relatively involuntary

01:12:08.000 and being state being like drunk or stoned is something that

01:12:13.000 Yeah, undowners.

01:12:14.000 You're kind of sleepy.

01:12:15.000 You're out of it.

01:12:15.000 I get it.

01:12:16.000 You're like, I feel good, man.

01:12:17.000 I don't know.

01:12:18.000 They're stacking stuff on top of me, but I don't care.

01:12:20.000 That's a problem for future me.

01:12:22.000 And then, yeah, yeah.

01:12:25.000 And then they're about to balance the gigantic wrench on top of your head, and you're like, oh man, that might fall.

01:12:29.000 And it does, and it hits your toe, and you're like...

01:12:32.000 You're freaking out.

01:12:32.000 And now it's finally so bad, but you didn't do enough before.

01:12:35.000 I don't think, I honestly, I don't know if there's like an actual way to solve that without some kind of different system.

01:12:42.000 I know a lot of people love to bring up Starship Troopers.

01:12:44.000 Yeah.

01:12:45.000 Have you ever read Starship Troopers?

01:12:46.000 I haven't.

01:12:46.000 Or seen the movie?

01:12:47.000 No, I've only heard like little snips about it.

01:12:50.000 And it makes me want to read it and watch the movie.

01:12:52.000 We should watch the movie.

01:12:53.000 Movie night.

01:12:53.000 Yeah.

01:12:54.000 The movie is weird because apparently like the interpretation of the book in movie form, like turned everyone into Nazis.

01:13:00.000 Well, that's annoying.

01:13:01.000 Yeah, like Sargon did a thing about it, where he was basically like, the Society of Starship Troopers is supposed to be a liberal society.

01:13:12.000 I don't know, I'm not gonna pretend to know all the details, I'm sure Sargon knows way more about it than I do.

01:13:17.000 But the general idea is that service guarantees citizenship.

01:13:22.000 If you serve in any way for a couple years, you gain the right to vote and participate in public matters.

01:13:28.000 Civilians have full rights, but don't vote and don't run for office and stuff like that. 0.94

01:13:33.000 It was an interesting idea because it makes sure that only the people who actually are working to better That's interesting to me because, you know, when women got the right to vote, similar responsibilities were not required of them as were required of men.

01:13:47.000 And even then I saw that as being a problem.

01:13:50.000 Like, I think it's great.

01:13:51.000 I think everyone should have a say in what happens in the world.

01:13:53.000 I think women are important. 1.00

01:13:54.000 I think having families is important and doing whatever you want to do is absolutely, absolutely pivotal.

01:13:59.000 But if you're going to have rights, you should also have responsibilities.

01:14:02.000 Men still have the draft and then you got to have the responsibilities, man.

01:14:07.000 So I don't have anything pulled up, definitely fact check me on this one, but I was reading something about it that said one of the big arguments from women's groups against the right to vote was that they didn't want to join the fire brigade or do other public services. 0.97

01:14:25.000 I guess back then for men it was like volunteer fire service was mandatory or something?

01:14:30.000 Right.

01:14:31.000 Voluntary.

01:14:33.000 It was actually part of civic duty.

01:14:35.000 Yeah.

01:14:35.000 Part of civic duty.

01:14:36.000 And, you know, voting is obviously part of civic duty too.

01:14:39.000 That is interesting.

01:14:40.000 I remember some of that anti-feminist propaganda, which sounds terrible now, I know, but it's so interesting because you're like, what were these people actually thinking?

01:14:48.000 How could you possibly think that women don't deserve or don't need the right to vote? 0.96

01:14:52.000 And you read what they're saying and they're like, well, we think that it's important that women be at home and we don't women, we don't really want women to have the extra tasks of like, putting out fires should they come up it turns out women 1.00

01:15:02.000 aren't really all that great at that kind of stuff and

01:15:05.000 if you have a weak link in a fire chain you're gonna have a problem

01:15:09.000 so ultimately though the right to vote was granted without any

01:15:13.000 additional responsibility. You know what I need to figure out why that happened

01:15:16.000 but to be I don't I'm not in the fire brigade I don't put out fires

01:15:20.000 you know what I mean? Are you not in the draft? Oh well that's true 1.00

01:15:23.000 Yeah, that's the draft, man.

01:15:26.000 Yeah, and they recently ruled, I think, right?

01:15:28.000 Yeah, remember when the feminists were melting down thinking that they might have to just be housewives now because they might actually get equality. 1.00

01:15:38.000 The draft is dumb. 0.97

01:15:41.000 I think the issue with the draft that people don't understand, or actually the problem with it was the exploitation of it. 0.99

01:15:47.000 People didn't know why we were going to Vietnam, or Korea, or these other countries.

01:15:53.000 I could only say I'm personally glad that the U.S.

01:15:56.000 was somewhat involved in Korea and is now extremely involved in Korea because South Korea is a free and amazing place.

01:16:04.000 Putting their weird racism aside is fine.

01:16:10.000 A lot of people didn't understand, and so they resisted, and they opposed it.

01:16:13.000 It's really interesting, because I was reading about the Weather Underground a little bit, and you're familiar with who they're?

01:16:17.000 A little bit.

01:16:18.000 Like 70s terrorists.

01:16:19.000 Yeah, they were like, what was their driving force?

01:16:23.000 Like anti-Vietnam War, I think.

01:16:25.000 I'm not going to pretend to know a whole lot about them.

01:16:27.000 Violent peaceniks. 0.79

01:16:28.000 Got it.

01:16:29.000 Makes perfect sense.

01:16:30.000 That sounds horrible.

01:16:30.000 Yeah.

01:16:30.000 Blowing stuff up.

01:16:31.000 Yeah.

01:16:31.000 My understanding is a lot of what they did was shock and awe campaigns at like

01:16:35.000 really early in the morning.

01:16:36.000 I'm not going to pretend to know a lot about it.

01:16:37.000 That sounds horrible.

01:16:38.000 But what's interesting is that it emerged out of the out of the universities and

01:16:42.000 it was very, there's a lot of pro-communist sentiment among them.

01:16:45.000 Why out of the universities?

01:16:47.000 I don't know.

01:16:48.000 But what I find fascinating about it is that the U.S.

01:16:51.000 was engaging in these conflicts to stop communism, and communism was spreading, you know, with these extremists trying to end the Vietnam War, which would allow communism to spread.

01:17:01.000 You know, that's really interesting.

01:17:04.000 Yes.

01:17:04.000 So much I have to learn about now.

01:17:06.000 I had never really thought about Weather Underground, so I'm going to need people to send me links about the Weather Underground and like maybe your parents were involved or something.

01:17:14.000 I think one of the guys who was involved in it, like Obama, had him at an event or something.

01:17:18.000 That does sound familiar.

01:17:20.000 Yeah, Bill, what's his name?

01:17:21.000 Bill Ayers.

01:17:22.000 Yeah.

01:17:23.000 I don't know a lot about it.

01:17:24.000 I'm not gonna pretend to.

01:17:25.000 But I do find it interesting that we're now seeing this weird rise of Marxism and communism when the Cold War is over.

01:17:32.000 And it reminds me of that Simpsons joke, which you probably don't know, because it's like super early 90s.

01:17:38.000 But, like, the joke was that it flashes to the UN, and then Russia says something about, you know, missiles or something, and they're like, he says something like, USSR needs something or other, and they're like, wait a minute, Russia?

01:17:51.000 And then he starts laughing, and then he, like, hits a button, and then Russia turns back to the USSR, like, they're back! 0.87

01:17:56.000 The Cold War is back!

01:17:57.000 I don't know, it's been a long time since I've seen the joke, I'm probably butchering it, but it was something like that.

01:18:01.000 And so a lot of people have been saying, A lot of what we see in the U.S.

01:18:05.000 that's destabilizing us were the seeds planted by enemies, you know, during the Cold War that were supposed to take root in 20, 30, 40 years.

01:18:14.000 They're here.

01:18:15.000 That's really interesting because that's something that Andrew Breitbart used to talk about.

01:18:19.000 In his book, he wrote Righteous Indignation.

01:18:22.000 He talked about the ways that they were getting these ideas into colleges, which is why I was like, what?

01:18:27.000 Did you say it came from colleges?

01:18:28.000 I thought it was really interesting.

01:18:28.000 Yeah.

01:18:29.000 Well, it was university.

01:18:31.000 I only read a little bit.

01:18:32.000 I didn't do a ton of research, but I was pulling it up because I was reading articles that were anti-Trump and I was like, hey, wait a minute.

01:18:38.000 Wasn't that person in the Weather Underground or something?

01:18:40.000 And I looked it up and I was like, oh, it wasn't?

01:18:42.000 I remember that lady we were talking about earlier. 0.99

01:18:42.000 Right. 0.99

01:18:42.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:18:44.000 Yeah, and I'm like, oh, I must be thinking of something else.

01:18:46.000 I don't know the lady's name. 0.84

01:18:47.000 Princess Pritmer Fox or something, I think?

01:18:49.000 Well, no, no, no.

01:18:49.000 I know her name, but who's the lady who was, like, with Bill Ayers?

01:18:53.000 Hmm.

01:18:54.000 Bill Ayers' girlfriend.

01:18:55.000 Well, it's like she was with him at an event for Obama or something, and a lot of people took issue with it.

01:19:00.000 I don't know.

01:19:01.000 It's no surprise to me, though, that it's gotten as bad as it has in terms of nonsensical, like nonsensical ideology.

01:19:01.000 I don't know.

01:19:12.000 Right.

01:19:13.000 So you think about what these people are spreading and these weird Marxist ideas, and they're not really ideas.

01:19:20.000 Are you familiar with, how do you pronounce it, prion?

01:19:22.000 Prion.

01:19:22.000 Prion?

01:19:23.000 Prion diseases? 0.98

01:19:24.000 Yeah.

01:19:24.000 So, do you know the basic function of prion disease?

01:19:27.000 Yeah, from what I can tell, it's basically, so I think, wasn't mad cow a prion disease? 0.92

01:19:31.000 I think so, yeah.

01:19:32.000 I know Creutzfeldt-Jakob is, and these are diseases that you can get from eating other people, which is really nice.

01:19:37.000 Okay, so that, I avoid sounding dumb, can you explain to me how a prion disease works?

01:19:42.000 Do you know? 0.94

01:19:42.000 I'm putting you on the spot, but you're the fancy doctor. 0.94

01:19:46.000 I'm not a fancy doctor.

01:19:48.000 My problem is that I'm starting at a deficit because I'm not entirely sure what prions are, but I do know that it works against the structure of the brain.

01:19:56.000 So it's eating out holes in the brain.

01:19:59.000 My general understanding is that they're malformed proteins.

01:20:03.000 That sounds right.

01:20:04.000 And what happens is your body will normally produce, I'm going to super simplify, let's say it produces a protein that's shaped like, you know, a certain shape.

01:20:14.000 Right.

01:20:15.000 The prion is shaped like a different shape.

01:20:17.000 Yeah, these are misfolded proteins, you're absolutely right.

01:20:19.000 And so your body starts producing proteins that are folded improperly and can't work, and then your body starts breaking down because all of a sudden you've got a bunch of like, let's say you need a bunch of proteins that are shaped like the letter R, and then you get a bunch of proteins shaped like the letter F, and your body's like, yo, these don't fit, what are you making?

01:20:36.000 And they're like, I don't know, this is what we're- I'm just gonna keep making it.

01:20:38.000 And then you die.

01:20:39.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:20:40.000 Well, yeah, the problem is that they're neurodegenerative.

01:20:42.000 So it affects, obviously, first your brain, which means your whole body falls apart.

01:20:47.000 It's actually really awful.

01:20:48.000 That's what it feels like, what's happening with this intersectionality stuff.

01:20:52.000 So there was recently a school curriculum release.

01:20:58.000 We talked about it a little bit the other day.

01:20:59.000 I downloaded the whole thing.

01:21:03.000 I don't know what it is, but it was just basic stuff.

01:21:05.000 And one of the things you see was like... We did mention this yesterday, but just for the context.

01:21:11.000 Where normal math problems are like, if a farmer has, you know, 3,600 oranges, and his warehouse can store 2,400, what percentage of oranges will spoil?

01:21:20.000 Right.

01:21:20.000 The question was, if there are 3,400 police stops, and out of, you know, 10,000 people, 3,000 are black, what percentage, you know, so it's basically creating this weird intersectional Marxist idea, Trojan-horsed in through regular math problems.

01:21:37.000 Yeah.

01:21:38.000 Well, now you're seeing, too, that the 2 plus 2 equals 5 thing.

01:21:40.000 Yeah.

01:21:42.000 That, to me, feels like a prion disease. 0.96

01:21:44.000 Well, you want to talk about a misfolded protein.

01:21:46.000 You try to inject the idea that 2 plus 2 equals 5 into building a rocket.

01:21:50.000 You're going to have some problems.

01:21:50.000 Boom.

01:21:52.000 And this is really interesting to me, the curriculum, because if you lay this out at the ground level and then you go from there, everything else is gone.

01:22:02.000 Everything else falls apart.

01:22:03.000 Absolutely.

01:22:04.000 I think this is an accurate analogy.

01:22:06.000 Yeah, so now as a society, in every level of government, like all over the place, you have these weird programs that produce nothing.

01:22:18.000 Like, you know, it's interesting when I heard You have all these companies promoting diversity, and they're not promoting function and practicality.

01:22:29.000 So you take a look at Gillette, for instance.

01:22:32.000 What does Gillette do?

01:22:34.000 Well, Gillette razors.

01:22:35.000 They make razors, yeah.

01:22:36.000 You remove hair from your body.

01:22:38.000 Yeah.

01:22:39.000 And so they made a commercial that was about men being toxic.

01:22:41.000 I'm like, what does this have to do with selling razors?

01:22:41.000 Yeah.

01:22:44.000 You know, I always talk about this with my friends.

01:22:46.000 I'm like, can you please just give me something where, like, the commercial is a guy going, hello, I make razors.

01:22:53.000 They're pretty good.

01:22:54.000 It has three blades.

01:22:55.000 It doesn't hurt your face.

01:22:57.000 And it takes the hair off.

01:22:58.000 Give it a shot.

01:22:59.000 I think it's great.

01:23:00.000 Thank you.

01:23:01.000 Can't commercials be like that?

01:23:02.000 That's how commercials kind of used to be, right?

01:23:05.000 Yeah.

01:23:05.000 You know, remember the commercial for Head On?

01:23:07.000 Do you remember that?

01:23:08.000 Yeah, with the stick that you put on your forehead.

01:23:10.000 Yeah, so weird.

01:23:10.000 It was really, really weird.

01:23:11.000 But the commercial worked.

01:23:12.000 Yeah, I remember it.

01:23:13.000 Because it just repeated itself three times and then stopped.

01:23:15.000 Head-on.

01:23:16.000 Applied directly to the forehead.

01:23:17.000 Head-on.

01:23:18.000 Applied.

01:23:18.000 And that was it.

01:23:19.000 Yeah.

01:23:20.000 You know what the opposite of that commercial was?

01:23:21.000 What?

01:23:22.000 Have you seen the Quizno commercial with the weird animals screaming?

01:23:25.000 No.

01:23:25.000 It's considered, like, one of the best advertising campaigns ever because it's this really creepy thing of, like, animals screaming a really awful discordant song about sandwiches.

01:23:37.000 And they're, like, weird animated things screaming.

01:23:40.000 Yeah.

01:23:40.000 And people just will never forget it.

01:23:42.000 You know, I think I had a horrible nightmare about this once.

01:23:44.000 But I will never forget it.

01:23:44.000 There you go.

01:23:46.000 Holy cow, I guess you're right.

01:23:47.000 The head-on thing is, like, a good ad.

01:23:49.000 So anyway, back to the point with Gillette.

01:23:51.000 These are companies that are prioritizing making an advertisement about men being toxic and not about a good product.

01:23:58.000 Yeah.

01:23:59.000 Surprise, surprise, the company is, like, losing money.

01:24:01.000 Yeah, they're not doing so great, last I checked.

01:24:03.000 To be fair, though, a lot of people played this up like this big get-what-go-broke thing, when actually, the company was doing poorly already because of the subscription services.

01:24:13.000 You get cheaper razors.

01:24:14.000 Yeah, like Harry's or Dollar Shave Club.

01:24:16.000 Yeah, Dollar Shave Club, Harry's.

01:24:17.000 And Gillette was, maybe we'll try and call men bigots?

01:24:22.000 Maybe.

01:24:23.000 What made them think that would work?

01:24:24.000 Well, their next commercial was kind of a reversal.

01:24:27.000 Oh, yeah.

01:24:28.000 The next commercial they did was like this ripped blonde hair, blue eyed white guy with a white family.

01:24:33.000 He's in the military with a family.

01:24:35.000 Like, dude, we like you got complaints about it, man.

01:24:38.000 But that's like entirely in the other direction.

01:24:40.000 Anyway, the point is, you're not it.

01:24:42.000 Why would anyone support a company whose focus is on improving diversity instead of like, I don't know, making socks?

01:24:48.000 You know what I mean?

01:24:49.000 That's my first criteria when I'm looking for socks.

01:24:52.000 It's to know what they think about me as a woman.

01:24:54.000 That's the only thing I care about and my delicate feminine feet. 1.00

01:24:54.000 Right. 1.00

01:24:59.000 I mean, I think this is part of the problem I mentioned earlier where media can only go in one direction.

01:25:03.000 Yeah.

01:25:04.000 But this is what I mean when I talk about the prion disease.

01:25:06.000 It is a cultural prion disease where these companies are, there's malformed proteins spreading throughout the company.

01:25:06.000 Yeah.

01:25:15.000 You have a company of 100 people, and from the top, from the CEO, all the way down to the lowly workers, they make socks.

01:25:21.000 They make great socks.

01:25:22.000 The best socks.

01:25:23.000 The best socks.

01:25:24.000 Everybody agrees, okay?

01:25:25.000 And then one day, you introduce intersectionality to one of, I don't know, a mid-level manager.

01:25:31.000 And now he, like, forms differently.

01:25:34.000 He no longer interacts properly with the other parts of the company.

01:25:37.000 He starts seeing all of these things that are wrong because his worldview just malformed.

01:25:42.000 Yeah.

01:25:43.000 He doesn't respond to the bosses properly.

01:25:45.000 Because they're racist. 0.99

01:25:46.000 It's white supremacy. 0.98

01:25:47.000 All his employees are doing everything wrong because they're not as woke as he is. 0.91

01:25:51.000 I could see that at both levels.

01:25:52.000 So here's what happens.

01:25:54.000 This person's upset but protected by law. 0.68

01:25:58.000 My boss is a bigot.

01:25:59.000 You can't fire me.

01:26:00.000 That's against EEOC regulation, blah, blah, blah.

01:26:03.000 So then they say, we have to comply with some of these training programs, which spreads the pre-end disease.

01:26:10.000 Now you've got half the company that cares less about making those fancy socks that everybody loves and is more concerned about making sure everybody's holding hands and diversity and inclusion and all that.

01:26:21.000 Now the company is making crappy socks.

01:26:23.000 They're falling apart.

01:26:24.000 So, like the pre-end disease, Your body can't function because half the proteins aren't working with the rest of your body.

01:26:32.000 Here's the worst part, though.

01:26:33.000 The prions don't work with each other either. 0.84

01:26:35.000 So these woke crazies in these companies, they're canceling each other.

01:26:41.000 Yeah, I see it all the time.

01:26:43.000 So then the company just plummets, it just collapses.

01:26:46.000 Scale that up to our country, and that's what's happening.

01:26:50.000 Yeah.

01:26:51.000 You've got, you've got, you know, Bill de Blasio, with painting Black Lives Matter, with no permit, with taxpayer dollars, with all the NYPD, that was malformed proteins that don't match, that make no sense, that is damaging.

01:27:06.000 Supporting the riots?

01:27:07.000 Damaging.

01:27:08.000 Damaging.

01:27:08.000 The riots?

01:27:09.000 9-11 Memorial?

01:27:11.000 Part of the cohesive structure?

01:27:13.000 Tradition?

01:27:14.000 Memorial?

01:27:14.000 Memory?

01:27:15.000 We no longer fit with that.

01:27:17.000 It's being ignored, it gets shut down.

01:27:19.000 The fact is, not that it was going to be stopped.

01:27:23.000 I should say, it's not like somebody decided, we're gonna shut this down.

01:27:29.000 The problem is that there's magic money to manifest out of nowhere for Black Lives Matter.

01:27:34.000 How do we ever get to a point where they had to consider not having the lights?

01:27:38.000 How come it couldn't have been the City of New York guarantees that if you ever don't have the funds or the manpower, we will guarantee it by any means necessary?

01:27:46.000 We as a society, whether it actually ends up happening or not, prioritized a new fringe Unhinged ideology with no real goal that can only sow discord over remembering those who died and whose lives were sacrificed in trying to save others.

01:28:06.000 It sounds to me like the 9-11 memorial was built when we all came together to recognize, you know, what it means to be an American, how we stand together, and that was when we were very, very unified.

01:28:18.000 Yeah.

01:28:19.000 We built this memorial and we pledged to never forget.

01:28:23.000 Now we have this expanding, you know, malformed protein spreading throughout our culture.

01:28:29.000 It existed during this era too.

01:28:32.000 It was in the universities.

01:28:34.000 And now these people have spread it outside of universities.

01:28:37.000 Do you remember when we used to say, I don't know if you used to say this, but I certainly used to say this and maybe just because of my kind of conservative background, we used to say, imagine what it's going to be like when these kids get out into the real world and they realize how hard the real world is and no one's going to give them the time of day if they're just these soft butter, butter, soft little biscuits.

01:28:55.000 And it turned out that they were the real world and they're turning into the real world.

01:29:01.000 I called this.

01:29:02.000 You did.

01:29:03.000 I said it over and over again.

01:29:04.000 I was like, these... So, a lot of people... I'll be fair.

01:29:09.000 There were periods where I would say something like, these people are going to try and get a job and they're going to get a cold, rude awakening.

01:29:14.000 That's kind of what I'm saying.

01:29:14.000 Right.

01:29:15.000 But, you know, outside... That's true.

01:29:18.000 It is true.

01:29:19.000 So, separating the micro from the macro.

01:29:21.000 You get some of these kids to graduate.

01:29:23.000 They go work for a company and the company's like, what?

01:29:26.000 And they go, oh.

01:29:27.000 But give it a few more years and more people keep joining the ranks.

01:29:30.000 Those people get into the bosses' positions.

01:29:32.000 The universities are essentially cranking out malformed proteins into our society.

01:29:39.000 And once our body is inundated with these, the proteins themselves do not produce.

01:29:44.000 It is the equivalent of Gillette arguing about toxic masculinity instead of just giving me a face trimmer, a beard trimmer or something.

01:29:51.000 So imagine what happens when you have the CDC.

01:29:54.000 10% of its employees have demanded they sign onto a letter calling racism a public health crisis.

01:29:59.000 Yeah, makes literally no sense.

01:30:01.000 So what happens when our manpower for the CDC is overrun by this nonsensical ideology?

01:30:07.000 Then you get a pandemic and they blame Trump for it!

01:30:09.000 Dude, this is something that has really troubled me.

01:30:12.000 Ever since my whole career has been kind of at hospitals and nursing homes working with old and sick people, and I started to pay attention to culture and I started to think, what happens when this kind of nonsense starts to get into science?

01:30:27.000 What happens when we stop looking for the truth and start looking for what fits our little malformed protein ideas?

01:30:33.000 Yeah.

01:30:34.000 Like, what's gonna happen then?

01:30:35.000 Is that the end?

01:30:37.000 Is that how the world ends?

01:30:38.000 Seriously!

01:30:38.000 Like, how are we supposed to move forward?

01:30:41.000 Do you know the legend of John Titor?

01:30:43.000 No.

01:30:44.000 It was an old internet legend where this man claimed to be from the future.

01:30:49.000 He made a bunch of predictions, and it was a bunch of funny internet images of light bending and stuff, and it was nonsense.

01:30:55.000 But a lot of people believed it was real, and the idea was that one of the ideas he had, and none of these predictions came true.

01:31:02.000 I mean, maybe some people still believe this stuff.

01:31:05.000 I thought it was a fun website, I never believed in it.

01:31:07.000 But one of the ideas was that the U.S.

01:31:08.000 would break apart.

01:31:10.000 That the East Coast would be, like, the East Coast would essentially be the remnants of the federal government, and it would be aligned with Europe.

01:31:21.000 The Midwest, Northern states, would be, like, basically become part of Canada.

01:31:28.000 The Southern, you know, Midwest and South would be part of Mexico, and the West Coast would join China.

01:31:34.000 Really?

01:31:35.000 That was like one of the conspiracy theories from back in the late 90s, early 2000s.

01:31:38.000 That's fantastic.

01:31:40.000 What, it's fantastic?

01:31:41.000 It's horrifying.

01:31:42.000 No, that kind of feels like what's happening.

01:31:45.000 Because all the federal government is situated on the East Coast.

01:31:47.000 Right.

01:31:48.000 And sure, whatever, we have more in common with Europe.

01:31:51.000 They kind of look down their noses at us.

01:31:53.000 And then California seems to like them some China. 0.90

01:31:57.000 They love themselves some communism, man.

01:31:58.000 They sure do.

01:31:59.000 Not the rural areas, though.

01:31:59.000 Yeah.

01:32:01.000 Oh, no.

01:32:01.000 Yeah.

01:32:02.000 So I would only take really serious issue with the southern part of, for Texas, for example, joining forces with Mexico. 0.89

01:32:09.000 I don't really see that happening.

01:32:11.000 Texas is not that kind of state. 0.50

01:32:12.000 I'm just saying, like, that idea I thought was silly.

01:32:15.000 That is so interesting.

01:32:16.000 But the idea of the U.S.

01:32:17.000 fracturing, I see it as possible.

01:32:20.000 I think people have an optimism bias and they don't want to believe.

01:32:26.000 Everything's happening right now.

01:32:28.000 John Podesta's The War Games they did.

01:32:30.000 I don't think people realize the severity of what it means when the Boston Globe and the New York Times report That the establishment Republicans before Trump and the Democrats teamed up to play out scenarios and ultimately determined that it was preferable to have the West Coast secede from the Union than allow Trump to win the presidency.

01:32:48.000 This was not some like, you know, the MIT rolled some die and a computer program said this might happen.

01:32:53.000 This was literally the politicians themselves making decisions for themselves.

01:32:58.000 Yeah, this wasn't like two weird people sitting at a podcast table, for example, on a Friday night talking about, you know, the state of the country fracturing.

01:33:05.000 Yeah, I mean... These are our politicians.

01:33:07.000 They were literally playing, like, D&D, essentially.

01:33:09.000 Okay, that's pretty funny.

01:33:10.000 Yeah.

01:33:11.000 Actually, that'd be a really fun thing to do.

01:33:13.000 Like, maybe, like, we should probably try and set up some, I'll do air quotes, war games.

01:33:16.000 We should, that'd be fun.

01:33:18.000 That'd be a real fun thing to do, maybe, like, on the weekends.

01:33:20.000 Yeah, we could probably do this.

01:33:22.000 Yeah, so based on what you know about these politicians and stuff they've done in the past, what do you think they do in this situation?

01:33:28.000 Oh man, I would play Joe Biden.

01:33:29.000 And the whole time I would be like, and no one would have any idea what I was saying.

01:33:29.000 Yeah?

01:33:34.000 No, I think I'd get to be Trump.

01:33:34.000 Yeah, it'd be great.

01:33:36.000 Yeah?

01:33:36.000 Yeah.

01:33:37.000 What?

01:33:37.000 You're going to fight me for it.

01:33:39.000 Do you want to play Trump?

01:33:40.000 It would be fun to, you know, but here, look, listen, we could play a war game scenario And I can be silly and be like, haha, now I'm gonna launch a bunch of, you know, like, attack helicopters! 0.75

01:33:40.000 Yeah, I want to be Trump. 0.75

01:33:53.000 But these politicians were actual politicians.

01:33:55.000 Right, yeah, you have to actually think about what the person you're acting as would be doing in the situation.

01:34:01.000 I think it would be interesting, and I've heard this a lot, you know, growing up, that empires only last, you know, 250 years or whatever.

01:34:08.000 Yeah, I have heard that as well, which is unsettling.

01:34:12.000 It seems like, you know, I don't know, there's great risk ahead of us.

01:34:17.000 Maybe that should give you a kind of peace.

01:34:19.000 Peace?

01:34:19.000 Because maybe it's just what's going to happen.

01:34:21.000 Maybe it's what's meant to be and maybe there we can salvage part of the country and go on and...

01:34:27.000 Or maybe Trump wins in a landslide because people are scared of that idea.

01:34:30.000 Entirely possible as well.

01:34:31.000 And, you know, I wonder about what's happening with the collapse of the economy, and I wonder if this will force universal healthcare.

01:34:41.000 I could be wrong about this.

01:34:42.000 My understanding about universal healthcare in Europe was because of World War II.

01:34:46.000 Yeah.

01:34:47.000 Yeah, I have heard that as well.

01:34:48.000 It may have been one or two, but they had no choice because everybody was like literally wounded and dying to just be like, we're going to try and take care of everybody and figure out how to fund it because we have to do this.

01:34:57.000 Well, they did that in Spain just now.

01:34:58.000 They finished changing over their health care system because of coronavirus.

01:35:04.000 I remember thinking, huh.

01:35:06.000 That's really interesting.

01:35:07.000 A crisis that will then force action.

01:35:11.000 So, you know what's interesting?

01:35:13.000 Bill de Blasio mentioned he wants to buy up all these buildings.

01:35:16.000 Yep.

01:35:16.000 He just came right out and said it, huh?

01:35:18.000 And the mass evictions.

01:35:18.000 Yeah.

01:35:20.000 They're putting homeless people in luxury areas, driving out wealthy people.

01:35:23.000 Yep.

01:35:23.000 I need a nice house.

01:35:24.000 But that's also stripping them of their income. 0.77

01:35:26.000 Then Bernie Sanders says he wants to tax like 65% of all of the gains made from billionaires.

01:35:34.000 We're not talking about money made.

01:35:36.000 We're talking about if you had... Let me break down for you what Bernie Sanders is saying.

01:35:42.000 I got this here a little Tim in a jar, right?

01:35:45.000 Let's say this is worth $5.

01:35:46.000 Yeah.

01:35:47.000 And then because of the pandemic, a cork and a little glass tube and the things required become extremely rare, and now it's worth $100.

01:35:56.000 Bernie's plan would require me to sell this and then give him $65.

01:35:56.000 Yep.

01:36:00.000 Wow.

01:36:03.000 So it's a tax on the wealth gains, not cash.

01:36:07.000 So if I have no money and this becomes valuable, what do I have to sell it?

01:36:12.000 I guess so.

01:36:13.000 I guess so.

01:36:14.000 Yeah, because you can't afford to cover however much he wants from you.

01:36:17.000 I wouldn't be surprised if following all of this, we see a bunch of more social welfare policies enacted very heavily.

01:36:24.000 Yeah.

01:36:25.000 And I see that coming from the right or the left.

01:36:27.000 I don't really think it matters.

01:36:28.000 I mean, if the country stays together.

01:36:31.000 It will.

01:36:31.000 Yeah.

01:36:32.000 You know, but I, you know, I guess we could say, we could just say, don't have an optimism bias.

01:36:38.000 You know, um, an optimism bias is basically when people think it can't happen to me.

01:36:38.000 Yeah.

01:36:43.000 Everything's always great.

01:36:44.000 It's going to be fine.

01:36:46.000 And then it's not.

01:36:47.000 So would you say that an optimism bias is what they had in 2016 when they were just sure that their candidate would win?

01:36:54.000 Yep.

01:36:54.000 Hillary?

01:36:56.000 Definitely.

01:36:56.000 Yep.

01:36:58.000 And they have it now, too.

01:36:59.000 You know, they picked Kamala.

01:37:02.000 And I saw this progressive guy I know say, well, I still think Trump is going to lose.

01:37:06.000 And I'm like, man... You just keep right on thinking that, bro.

01:37:09.000 Yeah.

01:37:10.000 Yeah.

01:37:10.000 And then you're gonna lose.

01:37:11.000 Yep.

01:37:12.000 I want them to lose.

01:37:12.000 That's the point.

01:37:14.000 All the Hillary people who sat at home, we'll see if they learn their lesson.

01:37:17.000 I kind of believe they didn't.

01:37:18.000 Yeah, I don't think so.

01:37:18.000 Because I don't think they can.

01:37:19.000 Yeah, I don't think so either.

01:37:20.000 They keep advocating for censorship and then getting silenced.

01:37:23.000 They're like, wait, wait.

01:37:23.000 No, like the young Turks.

01:37:25.000 Yeah.

01:37:26.000 You know what, man?

01:37:28.000 I've said it a million times, but the progressives should have been behind Trump.

01:37:32.000 What makes you say that?

01:37:33.000 That's a little crazy.

01:37:35.000 Because the Democratic Party, the establishment, if they get back in, the progressives are done for.

01:37:44.000 But that would require them to plan ahead a little bit.

01:37:46.000 Yep.

01:37:46.000 Well, so what happened now?

01:37:49.000 For all of, you know, basically what I see happening is the progressives didn't like Trump, but the establishment started handing out rocks.

01:37:57.000 And they gladly picked the rocks up and threw them at Trump as well.

01:38:01.000 It's actually like, you know, I covered this on my main channel, the White House siege thing.

01:38:05.000 Yeah.

01:38:06.000 They're planning a 50-day siege of the White House starting September 17th.

01:38:09.000 And why?

01:38:11.000 So that the Obama administration's, you know, second-in-command can take the reins?

01:38:17.000 Yeah.

01:38:17.000 That's what they said.

01:38:18.000 They're like, you know, obviously they want revolution, nothing less.

01:38:20.000 They say that.

01:38:21.000 But they're going to protest Donald Trump so that Biden can win?

01:38:26.000 And then they pushed the initial article, or it was like ad, for Occupy Wall Street.

01:38:33.000 Their complaints were during the Obama administration.

01:38:35.000 Why would they want to empower the Obama administration? 0.67

01:38:37.000 Because in tandem with not being able to look into the future, they also can't look into the past and they can't assess the present to figure out what the heck is happening right now and why and what might have caused it.

01:38:51.000 Well, shall we do Super Chats?

01:38:52.000 We should do Super Chats.

01:38:54.000 And man, it's been an exhausting week, my friends, but I assure you, We're, uh, we're, we're, you know, we had some changes in the show.

01:39:02.000 We're going to be kicking things back up and things are going to be a little different.

01:39:06.000 We got some guests coming next week.

01:39:07.000 We're going to have more guests and we're going to try and do guests periodically.

01:39:11.000 COVID is a disaster for basically everybody, us included, but we're going to read Super Chats for now.

01:39:15.000 And we'll just, you know, I can't read literally every single one, but I'll do my best to read as many as I can.

01:39:22.000 Thank you!

01:39:22.000 I think it was the blue thing behind me.

01:39:24.000 There was a blue shirt behind me.

01:39:26.000 Yeah, when I finally took it off.

01:39:28.000 I was like, I wonder if this is it.

01:39:29.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:39:30.000 There was a blue shirt sitting there.

01:39:31.000 out to Lydia doing great even while red.

01:39:48.000 Spork Witch says, Director said outright Starship Troopers is fascist.

01:39:52.000 That he didn't and wouldn't read it, and made the movie as a propaganda piece to push his

01:39:57.000 own uninformed views on the book.

01:39:59.000 It's a short book, 250 pages, and very easy style to read.

01:40:03.000 Please do read it.

01:40:04.000 That's what I heard.

01:40:05.000 Yeah, I think that's basically what Sargon was saying.

01:40:08.000 Akram says, I was literally brought to tears when I heard de Blasio wanted to cancel the 9-11 memorial.

01:40:14.000 It was the day we saw the absolute best of humanity in our first responders and citizens, great work, and spin the UFO for those heroes.

01:40:21.000 I don't believe it was Bill de Blasio specifically.

01:40:23.000 My criticism is that de Blasio would unilaterally give himself the power to do whatever he wants with his, you know, campaign message, and that we couldn't even pull tax funds and manpower to make sure the memorial happened.

01:40:34.000 Yeah, I was angry.

01:40:37.000 It doesn't describe.

01:40:38.000 It was a combination of rage and sadness.

01:40:45.000 Is there a word for that?

01:40:46.000 Rageness.

01:40:47.000 Radness.

01:40:49.000 No, it's not radness.

01:40:50.000 That's different.

01:40:51.000 Sageness.

01:40:52.000 That just sounds wise.

01:40:53.000 There you go.

01:40:54.000 I was, man, listen.

01:40:57.000 I remember waking up, I was like 14.

01:41:00.000 I fell asleep on, best of my ability to remember it, I used to sleep on the futon in my living room.

01:41:06.000 TVs back then, they were very large.

01:41:08.000 Yeah, I recall, yeah.

01:41:10.000 And I woke up to my mom yelling, a plane had crashed.

01:41:14.000 I'm always very careful to tell the story because it's really hard to remember, but my understanding is that we witnessed the second plane crash.

01:41:21.000 Oh wow.

01:41:22.000 And then my mom immediately was like, started crying like, oh my god, we're under attack.

01:41:26.000 We're under attack.

01:41:27.000 Yeah.

01:41:28.000 And I'm sitting there like, I have no idea what's happening.

01:41:30.000 My friends were driving to school and Chicago has a show, Mankow's Morning Madhouse.

01:41:37.000 And he immediately just broke away and was like, this is not a drill.

01:41:39.000 A plane has crashed into the World Trade Center.

01:41:41.000 And my friends were telling me the story.

01:41:43.000 They were all laughing like, this guy's so crazy.

01:41:45.000 And like, he's like, I am not joking.

01:41:46.000 This is happening.

01:41:47.000 They didn't believe it.

01:41:48.000 But everybody in school was like, they brought the TVs into the classrooms.

01:41:51.000 They turned them on and they were like, didn't say anything to turn the news on.

01:41:54.000 Everybody watched.

01:41:55.000 How crazy that it was just about 20 years ago, 19 years ago, that we had all our schools came together.

01:42:05.000 We all watched this.

01:42:09.000 The support for the president was through the roof.

01:42:11.000 Everybody agreed.

01:42:12.000 And today, they can't even turn the lights on.

01:42:15.000 That's amazing.

01:42:15.000 They're hopefully going to do something, though, to be fair, right?

01:42:18.000 Yeah.

01:42:18.000 Gareth Green says, fun fact, before 1800, the state constitution of New Jersey gave the right to vote to all free white property-owning people.

01:42:26.000 So when single property-owning white women showed up to register to vote, nothing could be done to stop them. 1.00

01:42:31.000 Hey, that's kind of cool.

01:42:32.000 That's funny, yeah. 0.99

01:42:32.000 It's too bad New Jersey's kind of become garbage. 0.99

01:42:34.000 We've gone downhill since then. 0.99

01:42:35.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:42:37.000 Alright, we'll read some more superchats.

01:42:39.000 What do we got here?

01:42:40.000 Mr. Goofyfoot, actually, I'm gonna bring this up just for you.

01:42:44.000 of sanity and a lighthouse of truth.

01:42:46.000 In the MSM-C of political deception, stay strong and keep skating.

01:42:50.000 50 years and still rolling.

01:42:52.000 Mr. Goofyfoot, actually, I'm going to bring this up just for you.

01:42:54.000 I am mildly perturbed right now.

01:42:57.000 Tony Hawk put out an Instagram post to honor a man who invented what was called the mute

01:43:04.000 grab, a very basic grab trick in skateboarding.

01:43:07.000 And he wants to rename it, partly to honor the skater, but it also kind of makes it sound like it was offensive.

01:43:14.000 So, Tony Hawk tweeted this, and he said, For nearly 40 years, we've shamelessly referred to this trick as the Mute Air, or Grab.

01:43:20.000 The backstory, simply, is that Chris Weddle did it, he was deaf, so they called him the Mute Guy. 0.52

01:43:25.000 When he did it, they said, he did it first, we'll call it Mute.

01:43:28.000 Someone initially wanted to call it Tracker Air, but others said because, you know, that guy did it, we'll name it after him, the Mute Guy.

01:43:34.000 So they called it the Mute Grab.

01:43:36.000 I was born after this, and I started skating well after this.

01:43:41.000 And there are many video games that use the term mute grab.

01:43:44.000 So Tony Hawk is now saying in the new video game, they're going to change the name to Weddle Grab.

01:43:50.000 And my issue with it is, first and foremost, mad respect for trying to honor the guy who invented it, for sure.

01:43:56.000 But, it's strange for me to see somebody in a position of authority like Tony Hawk is, because he's got a game coming out, try and alter the culture that is, you know, that millions of people engage in.

01:44:10.000 Like, I got a video game, Skater XL.

01:44:12.000 This game's amazing, by the way.

01:44:14.000 And you do mute grabs in it.

01:44:16.000 Are they gonna change every video game?

01:44:17.000 Like, why do this?

01:44:18.000 I just don't like the idea of someone asserting, you know, I wouldn't do it myself, I don't like it when other people do it, I can understand the reason behind it, I can respect it, but I don't like the absolute authority of someone who's very wealthy in a position of power to be like, you know what, I'm changing the name that everybody uses, all of these people, I hope it catches on.

01:44:39.000 You know what this says to me?

01:44:40.000 What?

01:44:40.000 That Tony Hawk is the self-proclaimed king of the skateboarders.

01:44:44.000 No, no, no.

01:44:45.000 Much like Peter Griffin.

01:44:46.000 Peter Griffin.

01:44:46.000 I was like, this is so antithetical to everything that skateboarding is about.

01:44:51.000 Right?

01:44:51.000 Skateboarding is an oral tradition.

01:44:53.000 Right.

01:44:53.000 It's very difficult for people to write down what things are, and I love it when you try.

01:44:57.000 Like, you can look at, like, skateboarding Wikipedia pages, and it'll say, like, trick names, and there's just dumb names.

01:45:03.000 Some 10-year-old kid popped in and said, I made this up, and he never did it before.

01:45:07.000 Because there's an endless possibility of things you can do on a skateboard.

01:45:11.000 It's like guys bragging about how big a fish is, isn't it?

01:45:14.000 They're like, this happened.

01:45:15.000 It's worse than that.

01:45:15.000 It's way worse than that.

01:45:16.000 I grew up with kids being like, yo, this is called like the red dragon and this is called the blue dragon and like the red dragon.

01:45:21.000 And I'm like, dude, stop.

01:45:22.000 That's not a trick.

01:45:23.000 You didn't, you land it and we'll talk about it.

01:45:25.000 Right.

01:45:26.000 And then, and then another thing they always do is like, they'll try and make up a new trick and then just call it after themselves.

01:45:30.000 Oh my gosh.

01:45:30.000 I always hated that.

01:45:31.000 I'm like, you know, I have nothing to do with that.

01:45:33.000 But anyway, I bring it up.

01:45:36.000 I don't, it's not the biggest deal in the world.

01:45:37.000 I was just kind of like.

01:45:38.000 Yeah, we were going to talk about it tonight though.

01:45:40.000 So absolutely.

01:45:41.000 Kind of.

01:45:42.000 It's just, to me, it's an oral tradition.

01:45:44.000 Yeah.

01:45:44.000 When you start skating, people explain to you how things work, what the names are.

01:45:49.000 And I'm also going to tell you this.

01:45:51.000 While I have you here and I'm complaining about skateboarding, first, I'll ask you to hit the like button if you haven't already.

01:45:56.000 Subscribe.

01:45:57.000 Notification bell.

01:45:57.000 You can follow me on Twitter, Instagram, Parler, Timcast.

01:45:59.000 You can follow at Sour Patch Lids as well.

01:46:03.000 There is a such thing as a frontside overcrook on a rail.

01:46:06.000 I said it.

01:46:06.000 I know there are skateboarders who watch this, and I know it's going to cause a controversy.

01:46:10.000 But for those that understand this, there is a frontside overcrook on a handrail, and stop trying to claim that an overcrook is a nosegrind simply because you're not good enough to actually do a nosegrind.

01:46:22.000 Boom, I said it.

01:46:23.000 And that's like, there's like some top pros who are like, nosegrinds just look this way. 0.98

01:46:29.000 I said it.

01:46:29.000 It's done.

01:46:30.000 Tim has said it.

01:46:31.000 Yeah.

01:46:31.000 Tim has declared it.

01:46:33.000 So here's what I'm actually saying.

01:46:34.000 The joke is, I don't believe anyone has the authority to dictate what a trick is or isn't.

01:46:39.000 It either is or isn't.

01:46:39.000 Right.

01:46:40.000 And so the simple way to explain it is that in skateboarding, I can actually maybe show you.

01:46:45.000 Oh yeah, here.

01:46:45.000 Can you zoom in?

01:46:46.000 Yeah, there you go.

01:46:47.000 I'm zoomed.

01:46:48.000 What can I use?

01:46:48.000 I'll use this pen.

01:46:49.000 Yeah.

01:46:49.000 A nose grind would simply be the board on the rail, straight on the nose.

01:46:54.000 But what people do is they come at it at an angle, and they call it a nose grind because they're not good enough to actually balance in the middle, and there are top pros who do this, and they argue that it is.

01:47:02.000 And I'm like, no, no, you don't argue that it is.

01:47:04.000 We know what the trick is.

01:47:05.000 You can't just be like, well, I can't do it, so I'm gonna call what I do it, and no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not doing that.

01:47:11.000 Yeah, I don't like that.

01:47:12.000 I don't know.

01:47:12.000 Anyway back to the super chats now that I've wasted your time with some more esoteric skateboarding

01:47:16.000 talk.

01:47:17.000 Gordon Hawkins says, I miss Adam, but this was a good live stream.

01:47:20.000 If you haven't listened to it, the whole mess feels like the stage by A7X from 2016.

01:47:25.000 The whole mess?

01:47:26.000 I don't know.

01:47:27.000 I'll check it out.

01:47:28.000 I'm going to look it up.

01:47:29.000 Richard Baranowski says, the city doesn't deserve a better tomorrow.

01:47:34.000 It deserves to drown in its filth.

01:47:35.000 Wilson Fisk, NYC. 0.99

01:47:39.000 That's the kingpin, right?

01:47:41.000 The bad guy from Spider-Man.

01:47:42.000 Yeah, that sounds right.

01:47:43.000 Zool says, John Titor might not have been right, but if you know anything about Nostradamus, a 15th century astrologer, he had predicted the rise of Napoleon and Hitler, both World Wars and 9-11.

01:47:53.000 Maybe suggest to Adam to do a deep dive.

01:47:55.000 That'd be cool.

01:47:57.000 I don't know if Nostradamus really did that.

01:48:00.000 There's some really interesting parallels, but I think the challenge is how much did he predict that wasn't true?

01:48:07.000 So I have a theory.

01:48:09.000 What if these people actually can see the future, but the future is not woven yet?

01:48:15.000 Here's how I look at... I imagine time, if I were to simplify it, where we are with timelines and futures and variables, would be that where we are right now is where the braid is being made.

01:48:29.000 And in front of us are all the different threads in random directions, and we're braiding it in certain ways, and bringing all these different variables into alignment.

01:48:38.000 Tapestry of history.

01:48:39.000 Right.

01:48:39.000 So if you could see the future, you wouldn't see a straight line because it's not been woven yet.

01:48:46.000 You'd see all the crazy variables.

01:48:48.000 And if you wrote every single one of them down, you'd find the one thread we used for this tapestry.

01:48:54.000 But you'd also write down all of the wrong ones, too.

01:48:56.000 This is amazing to me because you just described the plot from one of Terry Pratchett's books that he wrote with Neil Gaiman.

01:49:02.000 Oh yeah?

01:49:02.000 It's about a book of prophecies that this lady wrote and everyone thought she was crazy and it's been handed down through the family.

01:49:09.000 Everyone makes their notes.

01:49:10.000 They're like, you know, I think this is actually this and it turns out there's like flying motorcycles and flying fish and it actually is the end of the world and nothing is anything like anyone predicted.

01:49:20.000 But it was because she was seeing things then that she thought were like, you know, something totally different.

01:49:25.000 And she used the explanation that she had available in the 1600s.

01:49:28.000 And then in, you know, the 2000s, totally different.

01:49:32.000 So that is a really fun theory.

01:49:33.000 I like that.

01:49:34.000 There's an image of firefighters flying.

01:49:39.000 It's a drawing from like the 1900s, like early, early 1900s.

01:49:42.000 And they were like, their vision of the future.

01:49:44.000 And one of them was, you know, firefighters with wings fighting fires.

01:49:47.000 Like, why didn't we get that future?

01:49:49.000 That would've been cool.

01:49:50.000 You know, I gotta say it.

01:49:52.000 I know people love to romanticize the past, but when I saw this story about the Blockbuster in Bend, Oregon.

01:49:58.000 So for those that don't know, they converted, they created a 90s living room.

01:50:04.000 And there's a VCR and VHS, it's the last blockbuster, and you can Airbnb it and come and have a 90s movie night.

01:50:12.000 I thought about how amazing a business idea that would be, and I'd love to actually figure out how to do that, where you have a big building and it's an Airbnb with four time periods.

01:50:21.000 How cool would it be if you were like, I'd like to rent the 90s room for the night?

01:50:25.000 And you'd go in, everything's from the 90s, you turn the TV on and it's playing TV from the 90s.

01:50:28.000 You open the fridge and there's snacks.

01:50:30.000 And everything's 90s.

01:50:30.000 Yes!

01:50:31.000 It would be probably hard to do, but it would be cool and all the technology is and just like to exist in this bubble.

01:50:37.000 But when I saw this, I thought that that'd be a great business idea.

01:50:40.000 So by all means, steal it so I can rent one of those rooms.

01:50:43.000 That'd be awesome.

01:50:44.000 Like to live, like to actually recreate a 70s living room.

01:50:47.000 That'd be so fun.

01:50:48.000 I wasn't alive in the 70s.

01:50:49.000 But what I realized was, you know what, man?

01:50:52.000 There is something good about the era before social media.

01:50:56.000 Yeah.

01:50:57.000 Cell phones, technology is fine, but I thought back to like, I was thinking back to being a kid and not knowing where my friends were, and there was something, it was so much more fun not knowing.

01:51:07.000 It reminds me of Doctor Manhattan in the Watchmen series.

01:51:11.000 Are you familiar with that at all?

01:51:12.000 I'm familiar, kind of.

01:51:13.000 Yeah.

01:51:13.000 He can see the future, he can see everything.

01:51:15.000 And so, like, one of the lines in it is that he's, when he's fighting the bad guy,

01:51:19.000 the bad guy uses tachyon interference so that he can't see the future,

01:51:23.000 and he's like, I almost, you know, forgot the thrill of not knowing something.

01:51:26.000 Yeah.

01:51:27.000 And I'm like, it's kind of where we are right now.

01:51:29.000 It's exactly where we are.

01:51:29.000 Where it's like, we know where everyone is all the time.

01:51:31.000 In fact, you can get an app.

01:51:32.000 I remember the first time this came out, where you could see your friend on a map.

01:51:36.000 That was so weird.

01:51:37.000 They were like, dude, download this app.

01:51:39.000 And you can, like, see where I'm at.

01:51:40.000 I'm like, whoa.

01:51:42.000 That's crazy.

01:51:42.000 The mystery is gone.

01:51:43.000 Yeah.

01:51:44.000 Remember when, do you remember when cell phones had radios?

01:51:47.000 That brief period where, like, someone would have a cell phone, but they'd walk, they'd pick someone's, you know, name and then just press the button and go, yo, what up?

01:51:52.000 No, that's awesome!

01:51:53.000 Yeah.

01:51:54.000 Where was I for that?

01:51:55.000 I don't know, it was like Boost Mobile, but all the drug dealers were using it.

01:51:57.000 That's funny.

01:51:59.000 SkullDrummer34 says, Hey Tim, I love watching your vids.

01:52:02.000 You're one of the only realist media sources out there.

01:52:05.000 I especially love when you say, Harumph I say!

01:52:07.000 I won't be able to watch while I'm in boot camp for a few months.

01:52:10.000 Keep up the good work.

01:52:11.000 Appreciate it, man.

01:52:11.000 Good luck, dude.

01:52:12.000 That's tough.

01:52:14.000 Let's see, what is this one?

01:52:16.000 Whirlabee Scott says, Our original time was without Christ.

01:52:19.000 Our secondary time was with Christ.

01:52:20.000 Do you know what that means?

01:52:22.000 No, not familiar with this expression.

01:52:25.000 Truis Vijek says, love you guys.

01:52:27.000 Lids, you're doing great.

01:52:28.000 Any chance we can get a jam session tonight?

01:52:30.000 Tim and maybe even Lydia can play a song.

01:52:32.000 Anyway, keep up the great work.

01:52:33.000 Spin the UFO, Lids.

01:52:35.000 I do not believe we'll be doing a jam session.

01:52:37.000 I do not play any instruments and I only sing in the shower.

01:52:39.000 You're spinning the UFO the other way?

01:52:41.000 I'm changing the direction because this person posed a question.

01:52:44.000 Alright.

01:52:44.000 I liked it.

01:52:45.000 Let's go.

01:52:46.000 I always try to make sure that we get some of the early superchats so you guys don't get missed out.

01:52:50.000 It's going to disappear.

01:52:51.000 Natto A says, Tim, did you hear about Millie Weaver getting arrested today?

01:52:54.000 I did mention this.

01:52:55.000 And Matthew Hammond then came in right away and said, another superchat, Millie Weaver of Infowars and her husband were arrested for burglary on the eve of the release of her documentary on people funding the riots and Russian hoax.

01:53:06.000 Same way they went after James O'Keefe.

01:53:10.000 I don't know anything other than she got arrested.

01:53:12.000 I'm not familiar with her work.

01:53:13.000 I know that she follows me on Twitter.

01:53:15.000 I don't follow InfoWars.

01:53:17.000 Not a big fan of InfoWars.

01:53:19.000 But I'm not going to say anything about people I don't know other than I watched the video of her getting arrested and it's weird.

01:53:25.000 That timing is weird.

01:53:26.000 I don't know about that.

01:53:27.000 The timing's weird, but I think the best we can do is just make sure everybody knows.

01:53:33.000 Yeah.

01:53:33.000 Because if it is something nefarious, then everyone knows.

01:53:38.000 Yeah, good.

01:53:38.000 Like, they know she got arrested, and they know, you know, she's gotta go fund me and stuff like that.

01:53:42.000 Perfect.

01:53:43.000 But I'll be honest, man.

01:53:44.000 Sometimes people get indicted for things.

01:53:47.000 I do think it's really weird because, like, what did they burgle?

01:53:50.000 They broke into someone's house or something?

01:53:51.000 Yeah, I'd want a lot more detail.

01:53:53.000 Yeah, it's weird.

01:53:53.000 I really don't know.

01:53:54.000 If a grand jury did it, man, I think we need to get to a point where we have a really good system with English common law, presumption of innocence.

01:54:05.000 I think we can build upon this and do better with technology, you know?

01:54:08.000 We sure could.

01:54:09.000 Or they could just use it to keep track of all our faces and address the pre-crime.

01:54:13.000 Oh man, and just lock everybody up.

01:54:14.000 Yep, just lock everyone up.

01:54:15.000 Pre-crime.

01:54:16.000 Pre-crime.

01:54:17.000 Hannah Florian says, Tim, thank you for being willing to challenge the popular narrative.

01:54:20.000 That's something few people seem interested in doing these days.

01:54:23.000 I appreciate it.

01:54:25.000 King Canuck says, say with drama, but if CNN is fake news, and Fox is fake news, and you're fake news, then who the hell's flying this narrative?

01:54:34.000 Hope you're having a good night, both of you.

01:54:35.000 Keep up the whatever you do.

01:54:38.000 We will!

01:54:40.000 Yeah, pretty much.

01:54:40.000 Yeah, but now we have guests on the show!

01:54:42.000 IRL that you would interview people one-on-one and Lydia would feed you info and manage sound and video for the most

01:54:47.000 part Yes, yeah pretty much and we've talked about it because of

01:54:51.000 kovat we couldn't we couldn't book any guests. Yeah, but actually actually

01:54:55.000 I'm sorry the real the original version of Tim cast era was supposed to be a vlog in a van

01:54:58.000 Yeah So I built the van and I said this over and over and the

01:55:02.000 intent was I would do my normal shows in the van And then once I finished we'd be in some random place and

01:55:07.000 then I would do a vlog on the ground So we could actually do field reporting meet with locals

01:55:12.000 and random average Joe's Impossible to do.

01:55:15.000 With that van, you would need like a full bus.

01:55:18.000 I would need like a tour bus to be able to pull that off.

01:55:20.000 Because you need two or three people.

01:55:22.000 People who can drive, you know.

01:55:24.000 I have to be able to stop to do my normal recordings.

01:55:26.000 Then we need to organize and set up interviews with people.

01:55:29.000 I think it would be an amazing show.

01:55:32.000 Like, imagine just pulling up into literally the middle of nowhere, Oklahoma, in the Panhandle, and then just showing up, and there's like a town of 500 people, and there's like some dude, and he's like, I would love to talk to you about how I feel about what's going on.

01:55:44.000 We totally did that on the way back from California.

01:55:46.000 Remember when we stopped?

01:55:47.000 Yeah, we talked to this lady in the gas station. 0.99

01:55:49.000 I was like, where the heck is Tim?

01:55:50.000 And I went back in.

01:55:51.000 That was in Arizona.

01:55:52.000 Yeah.

01:55:52.000 And she was straight up like, we're not concerned about any of this at all.

01:55:55.000 We're all preppers.

01:55:56.000 We got nothing to worry about.

01:55:58.000 This lady told me this hilarious story. 0.99

01:55:59.000 She's like, My husband looks over at me and he says, man, should we go buy toilet paper?

01:56:04.000 And she's like, I looked at him and I laughed and I was like, we got three months in the cupboard over there.

01:56:09.000 She's like, we're preppers.

01:56:10.000 And I was like, that's a great story.

01:56:12.000 It's hilarious.

01:56:13.000 I love that story.

01:56:14.000 Yeah, we only ever hear from city folk.

01:56:15.000 Right.

01:56:16.000 Big city people with big cameras.

01:56:18.000 And it's really difficult to go to the middle of nowhere.

01:56:20.000 Well, it turns out if you just stop at a gas station and ask a lady what she thinks, she will tell you what she thinks.

01:56:25.000 Then you get a really interesting story.

01:56:26.000 I love that.

01:56:27.000 That was a lot of fun, that trip.

01:56:29.000 So anyway, that was the original idea.

01:56:30.000 Then I was like, basically we should have more guests on.

01:56:32.000 And we did.

01:56:33.000 We initially had several, and then COVID just stopped everything.

01:56:35.000 And then all of a sudden... So the goal of the show is to do basically what we already do with news segments.

01:56:41.000 We have stories.

01:56:43.000 But here's the way I see it.

01:56:44.000 I'm interested in what some other people think about news stories, where they might not be experts.

01:56:50.000 Explore the political opinions of, you know, certain experts.

01:56:54.000 Yeah.

01:56:55.000 Not necessarily on what they're an expert on.

01:56:57.000 Yeah, so get like a biologist's take on what's happening in, I don't know, somewhere like overseas or something?

01:57:02.000 Or Greta Thunberg. 0.92

01:57:03.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:57:04.000 You're a biologist, man.

01:57:04.000 You deal with, like, all this stuff.

01:57:06.000 Like, we see this lady saying, how dare you?

01:57:08.000 Right, well, what would be the impact of what she's saying?

01:57:10.000 But it's also average people.

01:57:12.000 I really would love to find regular people who are just like, here's what's going on in my industry.

01:57:18.000 I'm not going to expect them to know about who voted for what and who's elected to where, but it would be amazing to actually sit down with someone and say, Donald Trump is doing this executive order.

01:57:29.000 What's going on with your paycheck?

01:57:30.000 And then have, like, a plumber or, you know, an office worker or someone just be like, my friends, here's what we're seeing, because we don't get it.

01:57:38.000 And I wonder why we don't get it.

01:57:41.000 Because you get more clicks when you stick a name on something.

01:57:44.000 We like celebrity.

01:57:46.000 Yeah.

01:57:46.000 So ultimately, the show will never have someone's name.

01:57:50.000 It'll never be like Timcast IRL with this person, ideally.

01:57:54.000 We may have done it in the past.

01:57:55.000 The goal is to be like, you know, Timcast IRL Dash and then news.

01:57:59.000 Yeah.

01:57:59.000 And then we'll be sitting down with someone who's like a regular person or certain experts in certain areas and just generally have people to hang out with and talk.

01:58:07.000 We'll see what ends up happening.

01:58:08.000 Yeah, whatever happens will be cool.

01:58:10.000 Alright, let's see what we got in the super chat.

01:58:12.000 Nate says, would it be possible to address the Adam thing?

01:58:15.000 If you have and I missed it, point me to it.

01:58:17.000 Y'all seem to gel.

01:58:18.000 All of a sudden, a bunch of Tim and Adam theory vids popped up in my feed.

01:58:22.000 And in the chat, I'm seeing all kinds of crazy.

01:58:25.000 It's... people have a right to privacy, man.

01:58:27.000 So I'm not trying to be mean, and I know everybody wants to know everything all the time, but I think... I respect, you know, I work in journalism, I have sources, there's a certain point where you don't reveal people's private information, and it's just really about we as people and the things we do.

01:58:43.000 I just, sorry, you know what I mean?

01:58:45.000 Like, I'm sure if you, you know, did something with your family, you'd be like, it's nobody's business.

01:58:52.000 The challenge for us is that we're on a show, so it's like, you know, everybody wants to know the nitty-gritty details of everything, and I think people just have a right to privacy.

01:59:00.000 Ultimately, the goal is to make sure that everybody is doing things that are successful, and everything is literally successful.

01:59:08.000 So Adam's got his show he's setting up, and it's AdamCastIRL on YouTube.

01:59:12.000 I don't know if he's changing the name, but we'll be shouting him out.

01:59:16.000 His channel is still on the channel and everything, and we're going to make sure that his show becomes massive, and he does really, really well because he's a good dude.

01:59:23.000 He's a great dude, and he's good at what he does.

01:59:25.000 All right, let's see where we're at.

01:59:29.000 Chris D. Goddard says, I want to see Biden in front of a congressional hearing regarding Russiagate, like Barr had to sit through.

01:59:35.000 Not for the truth we'll never hear, but for the pure entertainment value.

01:59:41.000 That's fair.

01:59:41.000 He wouldn't be able to answer properly.

01:59:43.000 And then they'd accuse him of perjury because he spoke improperly.

01:59:47.000 Yeah, right.

01:59:48.000 No, they totally would.

01:59:49.000 Yeah.

01:59:51.000 SilverBullSteve says, Hey Tim and Lydia, Tim, for your jam session, would you consider making a parody of Jamie's Got a Gun?

01:59:56.000 It could be Tim's Got a Gun, keep up the great work.

01:59:59.000 We're gonna figure out what's going on with the format and everything, to be honest.

02:00:04.000 We were supposed to close on a deal two days ago for the new space, for the new companies, for the new ethics and everything, like the fact-checking site and all that stuff, and it was supposed to be two days ago.

02:00:15.000 And we've been stuck in purgatory because of COVID.

02:00:18.000 So this has been very troublesome.

02:00:22.000 But the ultimate goal is going to be a real set design.

02:00:24.000 I mean, we have this.

02:00:26.000 It's cool.

02:00:27.000 It's fancy.

02:00:27.000 But it's a little makeshift.

02:00:29.000 And I'm actually talking with some companies about legit construction and design and expansion.

02:00:35.000 And we want to have a legit music area.

02:00:37.000 And I actually want to have musical guests.

02:00:39.000 There are a lot of musicians that are very well known.

02:00:42.000 Some of them quite outspoken now on social media that you'd think are like far left, but they're actually, you know, whatever it is, we are liberal.

02:00:52.000 I mean, you're conservative.

02:00:53.000 I don't know.

02:00:53.000 You know, I don't know what I am because I keep taking these different tests and they keep giving me different things.

02:00:58.000 What do they tell you you are?

02:00:59.000 Well, they tell me I'm like libertarian.

02:01:00.000 They tell me I'm traditional conservative and I feel pretty stodgy sometimes.

02:01:05.000 I don't know.

02:01:06.000 Whatever we are.

02:01:07.000 I get liberal on most things.

02:01:10.000 Um, it's, you know, I did the, the, the hidden tribes test.

02:01:13.000 It says traditional liberal.

02:01:14.000 Yeah.

02:01:14.000 The moral foundation said I was conservative.

02:01:16.000 Yeah.

02:01:16.000 Like what?

02:01:16.000 I never know anymore.

02:01:17.000 I thought that was interesting because it, you know, even a few months ago it said I was left liberal.

02:01:21.000 I was like, I wonder what my opinion changed on.

02:01:23.000 I think it actually became more pronounced.

02:01:25.000 Not that my opinions have changed, just I'm more sure of myself.

02:01:28.000 Yeah, I think that kind of happens as you get older, too.

02:01:30.000 But the moral foundations thing is interesting because you can be a liberal with strong moral foundations.

02:01:35.000 It's just that almost all liberals only have two of six.

02:01:38.000 Yeah.

02:01:39.000 That's crazy.

02:01:39.000 Which seems mildly unbalanced.

02:01:41.000 Yeah.

02:01:41.000 BP, thanks for that super chat.

02:01:44.000 Let's see, Jeremy Smith says, check out Millie's Shadowgate on YouTube just dropped today.

02:01:48.000 It's why I left the military under Obama administration.

02:01:51.000 It literally why we voted D.J.T.

02:01:54.000 and why so much fake news.

02:01:55.000 Interesting.

02:01:56.000 And she just got arrested. 1.00

02:01:58.000 C. Jung the Great says, full stop, Millie Weaver dropped the doc.

02:02:01.000 She did it as soon as she was notified of her arrest, probably an early edit.

02:02:05.000 It's a doc that tells of a shadow government program of using contractor intel agents to attack political enemies.

02:02:11.000 Creepy.

02:02:12.000 Interesting.

02:02:13.000 I mean, I'm not a conspiracy guy.

02:02:19.000 But I'll watch it.

02:02:20.000 I definitely think there are people who, you know, work in concert and conspire in certain ways.

02:02:25.000 I don't think people are well organized enough to have any real kind of conspiracy.

02:02:28.000 But I do think, I mean, there's that guy in that jail, you know what I mean?

02:02:35.000 True, I do know that one thing that happens to that poor guy.

02:02:38.000 What?

02:02:39.000 Yeah, you know, whatever.

02:02:40.000 What?

02:02:41.000 There was a guy in a jail and, uh... He's no longer with us.

02:02:45.000 Yeah.

02:02:45.000 I don't know.

02:02:46.000 Strange.

02:02:48.000 Let's see.

02:02:50.000 Seth Adam Smith says, has anyone else noticed how eerily similar our current situation is to Dark Knight Rises?

02:02:56.000 Quarantine city, taking down the economy, a war against cops, and a billionaire playboy.

02:03:00.000 I nominate Tim for Commissioner Gordon.

02:03:02.000 No, man.

02:03:03.000 No, man.

02:03:05.000 Uh, let's see.

02:03:06.000 Vash Spector says, thank you for all the honesty you give us.

02:03:09.000 As a truck driver, tons of U-Hauls with luxury cars in tow on I-40 leaving Cali.

02:03:14.000 And messages from my company and other truckers to avoid I-90, 95 due to Black Lives Matter protests or don't stop if you do hit somebody call 911. 0.65

02:03:23.000 I saw that!

02:03:24.000 Yeah, I've seen that too.

02:03:25.000 Yeah, one of my friends is a trucker and he's like, this is something that I saw go by.

02:03:29.000 You don't stop.

02:03:31.000 You might slow down if you think that's the right thing to do.

02:03:34.000 This is not a direct quote.

02:03:36.000 I'm paraphrasing here.

02:03:37.000 But yeah, that is the going wisdom is to not stop.

02:03:41.000 Eric Anderson says, you're right.

02:03:42.000 This year has started more speculation than I've ever seen.

02:03:45.000 You talked about conspiracy theories.

02:03:47.000 Have you read about The Great Reset yet?

02:03:49.000 If you want some good entertainment and get you thinking.

02:03:53.000 What is The Great Reset?

02:03:53.000 You know what that is?

02:03:54.000 I think it's a book and I think we have it.

02:03:57.000 We have so many books.

02:03:57.000 We have so many books!

02:03:58.000 I'm really excited for when we finally get to the new space.

02:04:02.000 I have a headache over all of this.

02:04:03.000 Listen, let me tell you guys something.

02:04:06.000 We're two days past when we're supposed to have closed.

02:04:09.000 We're all crammed in a space.

02:04:12.000 The time keeps on ticking.

02:04:14.000 It's crazy in the media.

02:04:16.000 Relentless lies.

02:04:18.000 It's all relatively stressful.

02:04:22.000 We have a bunch of books, and I'm very excited for this new space, where we're actually gonna have big bookshelves and all of the books you guys send us.

02:04:29.000 If you go to timcast.com slash donate, there is a P.O.

02:04:32.000 box.

02:04:32.000 You can mail whatever, and people mail us crazy stuff, but feel free to, you know, whatever.

02:04:36.000 We got a bunch of books.

02:04:37.000 We got so many books, some of them are nuts!

02:04:39.000 I love it.

02:04:40.000 Yeah, it's great.

02:04:41.000 I especially love the crazy books, because I really oppose book burning, and I think the crazy books are the fun ones.

02:04:47.000 It occurs to me that when the book burning happens, and I'm not saying if anymore, we're gonna have all the craziest books and I credit all of you guys and I love it and I'm so glad we have all of them.

02:04:57.000 We'll have like the last copies of these books.

02:04:59.000 Here's another one from a trucker.

02:05:00.000 Well, she's literally doing that. 1.00

02:05:01.000 Yes I am.

02:05:02.000 It's great.

02:05:02.000 a trucker, I've been back and forth East Coast to West Coast, and I don't see any Biden stuff

02:05:06.000 aside from the rare sticker.

02:05:08.000 Trump, though, is everywhere, even in California, everywhere.

02:05:12.000 Keep up the good work.

02:05:13.000 Nice to see Lids voicing her opinion more." 0.75

02:05:15.000 Well, she's literally doing that. 1.00

02:05:17.000 Yes, I am.

02:05:18.000 It's great.

02:05:19.000 So, you know what would make me feel good?

02:05:22.000 A 49-state landslide for Donald Trump.

02:05:25.000 That would feel very... You know why?

02:05:27.000 Why?

02:05:27.000 It's nothing to do with Trump.

02:05:28.000 It's everything to do with the American people coming together and being unified, and an end to the political division.

02:05:34.000 I guess, theoretically, you could have that with Biden, but I don't believe that the Democrats are unified.

02:05:40.000 Oh, they're not?

02:05:41.000 Right.

02:05:41.000 Oh.

02:05:41.000 So, the Democrats right now, you've got the far left, you've got the moderates, and they hate each other.

02:05:45.000 There's no way to bridge that gap, and I think they thought Kamala would do that.

02:05:49.000 You called her Kamala earlier.

02:05:50.000 Again.

02:05:51.000 I know.

02:05:51.000 I'm sorry.

02:05:52.000 Kamala.

02:05:53.000 They did a whole thing on CNN on Tucker Carlson being a racist.

02:05:55.000 They wrote articles about him.

02:05:57.000 And he got yelled at and he did the brow thing.

02:05:57.000 Oh my gosh.

02:05:59.000 He was like, what?

02:06:01.000 And the guy on the show was like, it's Kamala.

02:06:03.000 And he was like, okay.

02:06:05.000 And they ran with that.

02:06:06.000 He's like, are you talking to me about this really?

02:06:08.000 Anyway, I totally cut you off.

02:06:10.000 No, you're good.

02:06:11.000 It makes perfect sense.

02:06:12.000 Kamala.

02:06:13.000 I think they thought she would bridge that gap and she is not going to do that.

02:06:17.000 No.

02:06:18.000 I saw a comment, it was really funny, on Facebook.

02:06:20.000 Somebody said something like, I won't vote for Biden, but let's be real, it's easier to overthrow a milquetoast moderate than it is a fascist dictator.

02:06:29.000 And I started laughing.

02:06:30.000 And I'm like, what if that's the reason the far left really wants Biden?

02:06:34.000 Because Trump is right.

02:06:36.000 Biden's America will be chaos and riots in the street because they know he won't do anything to stop them.

02:06:40.000 Yeah.

02:06:41.000 Think about this.

02:06:42.000 Portland is still going on.

02:06:44.000 The feds were sent in to secure the courthouse.

02:06:47.000 Donald Trump was like, we're shutting it down.

02:06:50.000 No ifs, ands, or buts.

02:06:52.000 And they all started crying.

02:06:53.000 Actually, it reminds me of Freedom Tunes video where they're all crying.

02:06:59.000 It's hilarious.

02:07:00.000 It's amazing.

02:07:01.000 And then as soon as the guy puts his gun down, they go, get him!

02:07:03.000 And they beat him up.

02:07:04.000 Trump said, no dice.

02:07:06.000 We will not back down.

02:07:06.000 The feds are there.

02:07:07.000 The DHS, we will not back down.

02:07:10.000 The state said, how about we have our police come in and help de-escalate?

02:07:13.000 They said, fine.

02:07:15.000 The state police today bailed out.

02:07:17.000 They were like, we can't do this.

02:07:18.000 You're not prosecuting people.

02:07:19.000 We are done.

02:07:20.000 Because the riots kept happening.

02:07:22.000 Yeah, what's the point?

02:07:23.000 So what do you think happens when, if Biden wins?

02:07:27.000 Do you think all of a sudden he's going to be like, it's not, it's time to listen, look fat.

02:07:31.000 We're gonna crack down.

02:07:33.000 Send out these law enforcement officers.

02:07:35.000 These things.

02:07:36.000 Or is he gonna be like, look fat, people are peacefully protesting.

02:07:40.000 Those are firebombs of peace.

02:07:42.000 I'm kidding.

02:07:43.000 But I think what will end up happening is Joe Biden, like all the Democrats, will just be like, it's like you got a kid in the candy store screaming, I want the Sour Patch Kids.

02:07:52.000 And the mom's like, okay, honey, will you be quiet?

02:07:54.000 Oh, he's yelling at me. 0.79

02:07:55.000 Like, instead of being like, shut your mouth!

02:07:58.000 Stop yelling in public and telling the kid what to do.

02:08:01.000 The Democrats are like, whatever you say, dear.

02:08:03.000 While they're screaming and having a temper tantrum.

02:08:06.000 At the federal level, Donald Trump is saying, law enforcement.

02:08:09.000 The Democrats at the state and city level are doing nothing.

02:08:12.000 Yep, and it shows.

02:08:13.000 Where was it?

02:08:14.000 Was it Utah, where they were like, we are not Seattle, or something?

02:08:17.000 Yeah, no, it was, oh, wasn't it Oklahoma City?

02:08:20.000 Was it?

02:08:20.000 I don't think that's quite right.

02:08:21.000 Yeah, something like that.

02:08:21.000 They were like, we are not, it was Tulsa.

02:08:23.000 This is not Tulsa.

02:08:24.000 Yep, this is not Seattle.

02:08:24.000 Was it Tulsa?

02:08:26.000 And they like arrested everybody.

02:08:27.000 They did.

02:08:29.000 Like salted the earth, it was great.

02:08:30.000 Yep, yep.

02:08:31.000 Alright, we'll read a couple more and then we're getting ready to wrap up.

02:08:34.000 Oh man, yeah.

02:08:35.000 Let's see.

02:08:36.000 What is this?

02:08:37.000 Will Rushing says, did you hear about the military using UFO tech for new equipment?

02:08:42.000 Just recently dropped hard to find details.

02:08:44.000 Just recently dropped hard to find details.

02:08:46.000 Interesting.

02:08:46.000 Oh, cool.

02:08:48.000 Let's see.

02:08:49.000 Connor Astrin says, can you put a list of all the books you have?

02:08:52.000 That's actually a really good idea.

02:08:54.000 Yeah, we'll have to put it together.

02:08:55.000 We have a massive amount of books.

02:08:56.000 We do.

02:08:57.000 And once we get a big shelf, I think we'll do like a high res photo and then catalog them.

02:09:03.000 As we, you know, as we pack them to move, we can do that too.

02:09:06.000 Yeah, we can catalog.

02:09:08.000 We, like, we get some crazy ones.

02:09:09.000 Someone sent me, like, a ma- I get manifestos all the time.

02:09:11.000 Yep.

02:09:12.000 Like, it's, wow, it's like, I'll get a packet and I'll be like, it's a manifesto.

02:09:15.000 Manifesto.

02:09:16.000 And it's like, somebody will type up 100 plus pages.

02:09:18.000 I'm really impressed by the amount of work they put into it.

02:09:22.000 I don't have any time to read someone's, like, personal 100 page, you know, thing.

02:09:25.000 So I, you know, I'm not trying to be disrespectful or anything.

02:09:28.000 Yeah, much respect for that.

02:09:30.000 Yeah.

02:09:31.000 Following through on that, that's amazing.

02:09:33.000 White balance on the camera.

02:09:34.000 Yeah.

02:09:35.000 No blue shirts on the back of chairs.

02:09:37.000 It turned her into a tomato, I can't speak.

02:09:39.000 The best tomato, frankly.

02:09:41.000 Okay, everybody.

02:09:43.000 Yes.
