Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - FBI SEIZES Phone From GOP Rep, Trump Raid Judge Tied To Epstein w-Michael Seifert

00:00:00.000 you you

00:00:32.000 you we have new reports that the FBI has seized the cell phone

00:00:58.000 of a Republican representative a day after the FBI raided the home of

00:01:03.000 Donald Trump.

00:01:04.000 This could be... I mean, well, you know what?

00:01:06.000 I'm not gonna say what it could be.

00:01:08.000 I'm gonna say this.

00:01:08.000 George Conway, of all people, said they have crossed the Rubicon.

00:01:12.000 I completely agree.

00:01:14.000 We woke up when we got that news.

00:01:16.000 We covered it.

00:01:17.000 That was the moment this country was forever changed.

00:01:21.000 And now we are in what Donald Trump calls dark days.

00:01:24.000 We now have new information which is lighting up the internet with conspiracy theories.

00:01:28.000 The judge who reportedly signed the search warrant of Trump's home What?

00:01:33.000 is linked to Jeffrey Epstein in...

00:01:36.000 And when I first heard this, I was like, linked to Epstein, what does that mean?

00:01:39.000 Like, he knew a guy who knew a guy.

00:01:41.000 And then it's like, actually, he was a federal prosecutor who switched sides and started working

00:01:46.000 to defend Epstein's lieutenants.

00:01:48.000 And it's like, oh, what?

00:01:50.000 That's the guy?

00:01:52.000 He's an Obama donor as well.

00:01:53.000 Okay, well, the other thing is, when stories like this big happen,

00:01:58.000 that's all the news is.

00:02:01.000 So we're gonna talk about that, plus we got other weird stories, like, okay, I'm just gonna say it, some dude was sending feces to Republicans in the mail.

00:02:08.000 What?

00:02:09.000 And Hillary Clinton is fundraising off of Trump being raided, basically saying that what she did was worse, but she got away with it, so give her money, because she knows you will.

00:06:25.000 It's always a lot of fun.

00:06:26.000 You guys should join us over there.

00:06:27.000 Let's go.

00:06:28.000 Just real quick, what do you think?

00:06:29.000 We should we should leave with the Epstein thing or the or the raid?

00:06:32.000 So so the raid on the seizing of the cell phone I think is like big breaking news.

00:06:37.000 It's like maybe we should go with that and then we'll talk about the Epstein stuff, right?

00:06:40.000 Yeah, I think so.

00:06:42.000 Let's jump with this.

00:06:43.000 We'll jump to the story that we have this from Washington Times.

00:06:45.000 Trump ally rep Scott Perry says FBI seized his cell phone.

00:06:50.000 One day after the raid on former President Donald Trump, the FBI has seized the cell phone of a Republican member of Congress.

00:06:56.000 Rep.

00:06:56.000 Rep. Scott Perry, Pennsylvania Republican, said in a statement to Fox News that three

00:06:59.000 FBI agents handed him a warrant and demanded his phone.

00:07:02.000 Quote, This morning, while traveling with my family, three FBI

00:07:06.000 agents visited me and seized my cell phone.

00:07:09.000 They made no attempt to contact my lawyer, who would have made arrangements for them

00:07:12.000 to have my phone, if that was their wish.

00:07:14.000 I'm outraged, though not surprised, that the FBI, under the direction of Merrick Garland's DOJ, would seize the phone of a sitting member of Congress.

00:07:25.000 Mr. Perry's statement did not elaborate on whether he was told anything about what the FBI was seeking on the phone.

00:07:29.000 Mr. Perry is a founding member and current chairman of the conservative House Freedom Caucus.

00:07:34.000 Oh my gosh.

00:07:35.000 As a close ally of former President Donald Trump, the Democrat-appointed January 6th panelist shown interest in his communications with Trump around that time.

00:07:42.000 It's fascinating.

00:07:43.000 Wasn't Ron DeSantis also one of the founders of the Freedom Caucus?

00:07:46.000 I'm not sure.

00:07:46.000 I don't know that.

00:07:47.000 I would believe it.

00:07:49.000 We're big fans of the Freedom Caucus.

00:07:50.000 We are.

00:07:51.000 And I have to say, this is not surprising in the least.

00:07:54.000 But, uh, man.

00:07:57.000 Look, when a story like this happens, it's kind of like, oh wow, that's bad.

00:08:02.000 When Steve Bannon gets arrested, you're like, oh wow, that's bad.

00:08:06.000 After the raid on Donald Trump's home, it's a whole new territory.

00:08:10.000 Now this is a sitting member of Congress had his phone seized by the feds.

00:08:16.000 Yeah, DeSantis did help start the Freedom Caucus.

00:08:19.000 Where we are right now is that it's not former administration officials.

00:08:23.000 It is current elected representatives being targeted by the Department of Justice.

00:08:30.000 So where does this end?

00:08:31.000 So I remember you talking about- Civil War.

00:08:33.000 You said it.

00:08:33.000 Yeah, of course, you said it.

00:08:34.000 All right, take your drinks, everyone.

00:08:35.000 So Tim talked about this situation where there would be two cars driving somewhere.

00:08:39.000 I don't remember the story.

00:08:40.000 It was Matt Zaibi.

00:08:41.000 Matt Zaibi wrote this.

00:08:42.000 Really?

00:08:43.000 Matt Zaibi wrote, I think it was last October.

00:08:45.000 That's great.

00:08:46.000 That we will get to the arrest that man phase, which sparks a civil war where you will have two cars speeding towards a police jurisdiction where the men will jump out and point at each other, arrest that man.

00:08:59.000 Is that where we are?

00:09:01.000 We're beyond that.

00:09:02.000 So the question about that stuff is, will there be a fight over the institution of law enforcement?

00:09:08.000 Democrats have weaponized it.

00:09:10.000 Republicans are too weak.

00:09:11.000 Look, I appreciate Rick Santorum being on this show, but he was like, no, we gotta follow the rules.

00:09:16.000 We can't do this stuff.

00:09:17.000 And it's like, I'll see you in the gulag, brother.

00:09:19.000 I'm full abolish the FBI at this point.

00:09:21.000 Oh, yeah.

00:09:21.000 Yeah, I mean it and that's the reality.

00:09:23.000 It's like that I think in the battle for law enforcement There's still some Constitution adhering awesome local police officers sheriffs and communities around the country But the FBI and I'm not saying that they're all bad apples, but my goodness I mean the whole institution itself has been robbed and it's so centralized in nature that So people still have hope for it?

00:09:44.000 I don't.

00:09:44.000 I think the only answer with the FBI, an institution that's as nationalized and centralized as that at this point, is get rid of it.

00:09:50.000 Can't reform it.

00:09:50.000 We're in like a completely different reality, maybe not completely, but relative to like 1970 when it was wiretapping phones and it was a big deal, like when Nixon got found to be wiretapping the Democratic, whatever it was, the Democrats during his campaign.

00:10:02.000 Yeah, the DNC or whatever.

00:10:04.000 Now it's digital.

00:10:05.000 So much data is stored digitally and for these companies to be able, and I'm calling the FBI a company because it's kind of functioning like its own company, is able to just like peruse digital data and scrape huge amounts of people's data, conversations and stuff.

00:10:20.000 It didn't exist 50 years ago, so maybe we do need new rules and functions, but the thing is, de facto, whoever can do it is going to do it.

00:10:30.000 Hassan Piker tweeted, you know, you're familiar with him, he's the left-wing guy.

00:10:34.000 He said something about liking watching Steven Crowder cry to defund the FBI or whatever.

00:10:41.000 And I'm like, hasn't Crowder ragged on the FBI for a really, really long time?

00:10:44.000 Yeah, this isn't new.

00:10:45.000 Yeah, no, I mean, you know, so I'm like, I hear your brother, Hassan, you know, when you're like cheering for Steven Crowder talking about defunding the FBI, and I'm like, many of us have been there for a while now.

00:10:54.000 Maybe if you agree with that, Maybe there's like a caucus that can be formed between progressives and Republicans where it's like, okay, we all agree.

00:11:02.000 We're gonna get rid of that one.

00:11:03.000 Maybe the ATF while we're at it.

00:11:05.000 I mean, they don't like the government, right?

00:11:07.000 Supposedly.

00:11:08.000 So how about we all just say, you know, abolish many of these DOJ, DHS institutions, huh?

00:11:14.000 How about that?

00:11:15.000 I'm all in for getting rid of the three-letter agencies.

00:11:17.000 I think it's time.

00:11:18.000 You look at their track record.

00:11:20.000 I'm a big, like, you can tell a tree by the fruit.

00:11:22.000 And the fruit of the FBI has been nothing but tyranny.

00:11:25.000 That seems very corporate in nature for the last two, three decades.

00:11:28.000 And this goes all the way back to, you're right, the 70s.

00:11:33.000 And even, I would argue even further than that, but the FBI is an institution, the CIA is an institution that has such a political agenda to it that it's impossible to claim that they're biased.

00:11:45.000 And that's, you even had people today, like Andrew Yang that was calling that out, that was willing to admit that like, this looks political in nature.

00:11:54.000 And so when people's immediate de facto response at this point is like, oh, there's the FBI being political again.

00:12:00.000 Like, that's a sign that the tree is rotten.

00:12:01.000 The fruit's rotten.

00:12:02.000 This thing needs to just be uprooted.

00:12:04.000 Yeah, 100%.

00:12:05.000 This is the first time I've ever retweeted Andrew Cuomo because he was on it quicker than some of these Republicans.

00:12:10.000 Same for Andrew Yang.

00:12:11.000 But you know why he was on it?

00:12:13.000 I'm sure he got skeletons in the closet.

00:12:17.000 I will first say I can respect that Cuomo came out and said the right thing.

00:12:22.000 I will give him credit for that.

00:12:24.000 I will then add, maybe the guy who killed 15,000 people by putting COVID patients in nursing homes might be a little worried about what the government's gonna do when they go after politicians.

00:12:33.000 He's sitting in his living room and he sees the news and he goes, wait, we're doing that now?

00:12:36.000 I thought we were off limits!

00:12:37.000 No, no, no, no, no, we gotta...

00:12:39.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, when it comes for you, man.

00:12:42.000 That's the problem with the weaponization of all this stuff.

00:12:44.000 But I don't know how the Republicans, I don't know what the Republicans would even do.

00:12:51.000 Kevin McCarthy's acting like, he's like, mark your calendar, Merrick Garland, because when we get in in November, we're going to send you more sternly worded letters while you continually destroy this country.

00:13:02.000 I don't understand why, what, like worst case scenario, or even just like normal case scenario, if Trump were to get elected again and to get in office, like what would be, what would be that bad that would happen?

00:13:11.000 He's going to fire him.

00:13:12.000 Maybe, maybe people will get fired.

00:13:14.000 Maybe that's what this is about.

00:13:15.000 But like, really the threat of our country is not there.

00:13:18.000 There's no like, oh, maybe something is going to devastate, like we're okay.

00:13:23.000 It's the economy is bad.

00:13:24.000 And we need to fix the economy, regardless of who's in power.

00:13:28.000 The bureaucratic state has been in power for too long, and they will not let an elected official remove them from power.

00:13:36.000 There is this parasitic entity that is the bureaucratic state latched on to our country, suckling away and controlling it like a brain slug, and Donald Trump is trying to remove it, but it's almost impossible.

00:13:48.000 It is resisting. 0.54

00:13:50.000 These people aren't elected.

00:13:51.000 They get appointed, they stay in through numerous administrations, these civil servants.

00:13:55.000 So often, we've talked about it on the show, you know, a president gets into office, they're like, I'm gonna get the troops out of the Middle East.

00:14:01.000 And then a bunch of documents on their desk, and they say, no, you're gonna bomb this guy, this guy, and this guy, and he goes, okay, I'm gonna blow up kids.

00:14:08.000 And that's exactly what happens.

00:14:09.000 So when Donald Trump gets in, this is my theory, my hypothesis, They say, okay, Mr. President, you're the president.

00:14:15.000 Fine.

00:14:15.000 Boom.

00:14:16.000 They slam the files on the desk.

00:14:17.000 This is our agenda.

00:14:18.000 This is what we do.

00:14:19.000 And he goes, no, no, we're not doing any of that. 1.00

00:14:21.000 That's stupid. 1.00

00:14:22.000 I don't know. 1.00

00:14:22.000 I don't know why you want to do that. 1.00

00:14:23.000 And then they start saying, no, no, you don't understand.

00:14:25.000 Like, we're the CIA.

00:14:26.000 Like, we do these things.

00:14:29.000 This is what we're doing and why.

00:14:30.000 He goes, don't know.

00:14:31.000 Don't care.

00:14:32.000 How does it help America?

00:14:33.000 And they're like, okay, we got to stop this guy.

00:14:36.000 I think there was a point Before Trump got elected, they had a meeting with a bunch of establishment figures.

00:14:41.000 I was in DC for it.

00:14:42.000 Apparently it was in a building somewhere.

00:14:44.000 And I bet they were like, if you win, will you play ball?

00:14:47.000 And he said, if I win, I'm the president and we're going to do what America wants.

00:14:51.000 And then I think these people were like, okay, that's it.

00:14:53.000 He can't win.

00:14:54.000 He can't be allowed to win.

00:14:55.000 So I'll give you a real world.

00:14:56.000 I'll give you an example.

00:14:57.000 Our, our middle Eastern agenda.

00:14:59.000 I talk about it often, the Qatar Turkey pipeline.

00:15:01.000 We had a multi presidential agenda.

00:15:04.000 It doesn't matter who the president is.

00:15:05.000 We were doing this building these pipelines, trying to get energy into Europe, competing with Russia.

00:15:10.000 Donald Trump comes in and goes, no, excuse me.

00:15:13.000 No.

00:15:13.000 And he shuts it all down.

00:15:15.000 Shut down the TPP, too, the Trans-Pacific Partnership. 0.99

00:15:17.000 Oh, that was like kicking them in the balls. 0.99

00:15:19.000 Yeah, really. 0.99

00:15:19.000 So they're shrieking. 0.99

00:15:22.000 Now Donald Trump says, I'm gonna fire all of them.

00:15:24.000 Schedule F. And they're just losing their minds.

00:15:27.000 So this is what you get when you have unelected bureaucrats who actually run your country. 0.96

00:15:32.000 Ray signed off on this.

00:15:33.000 This is what people are saying, okay?

00:15:34.000 I don't want to pretend to know what was going on in the inner workings of this.

00:15:38.000 But they know what they're doing.

00:15:40.000 They are trying to stop someone from being able to become the duly elected president for a second term.

00:15:45.000 This is also, like, you don't, this is, Kennedy, he came out and he was like, I'm gonna break up the CIA, and then Kennedy got assassinated.

00:15:51.000 Like, you don't threaten the CIA.

00:15:53.000 If you're gonna fire people, you just do it when you have the ability to do it.

00:15:56.000 You don't, like, tell them all ahead of time you're gonna do it.

00:15:58.000 Well, let me ask you, like, do you know what the, like, why leave, why, what was the motivation of Lee Harvey Oswald?

00:16:07.000 Yeah, what the original- the actual story is?

00:16:10.000 Like what's the- I don't know, he was like an angry communist Fidel Castro sympathizer and he didn't like Kennedy, yeah.

00:16:16.000 I don't know.

00:16:16.000 Maybe, I guess.

00:16:17.000 That's the story.

00:16:17.000 That's the story, but he was working with groups that were- I think what happened was he loaned a group of radicals his gun and then they placed- they killed Kennedy and put his gun in the building.

00:16:26.000 Well, didn't Kennedy want to get us- stop Vietnam or something like that?

00:16:30.000 Yeah, he was a pretty anti-war guy in general.

00:16:32.000 He was escalating.

00:16:34.000 He's actually escalating Vietnam. 0.89

00:16:35.000 He was escalating.

00:16:36.000 Yeah, but he had always said that there was a power greater than him that was manufacturing a lot of the crises that were happening.

00:16:42.000 Remember, he was like, there's that famous quote that Kennedy was basically saying that I'm not fully the one in charge here.

00:16:48.000 There's a whole different thing happening behind the curtain, and then obviously he's taken out.

00:16:54.000 Also, he and his brother Bobby went hard on the mob.

00:16:56.000 Hard on the mob.

00:16:57.000 So they think maybe the mob was involved in killing him.

00:16:59.000 Do you guys want to pull back the curtain a little bit?

00:17:01.000 Yes.

00:17:02.000 All right, take a look at this story from the New York Post.

00:17:04.000 No.

00:17:04.000 The judge who okayed the Mar-a-Lago raid is an Obama donor once linked to Jeffrey Epstein.

00:17:10.000 What?

00:17:11.000 Now, I stated this in the intro to the show, when I heard the news.

00:17:15.000 I said, yeah, yeah, what does Epstein-Linked mean?

00:17:18.000 It's like his brother once catered a restaurant Epstein served dinner at.

00:17:22.000 You know, you get these sensational headlines.

00:17:24.000 And then I read it.

00:17:25.000 And it was, he was a federal prosecutor who abruptly switched sides, joining the defense for Jeffrey Epstein, for his lieutenants, not for Epstein specifically.

00:17:34.000 And, okay, that's weird.

00:17:37.000 Check it out.

00:17:38.000 Reinhardt was elevated to magistrate judge in 2018 after 10 years in private practice.

00:17:42.000 That November, the Miami Herald reported that he had represented several of Epstein's employees, including, by Reinhardt's own admission to the outlet, Epstein's pilots, his scheduler, Sarah Kellen and Nadia Marcinkova, who Epstein once reportedly described as his Yugoslavian sex slave.

00:18:00.000 Kellen and Marcinkova were among Epstein's lieutenants who were granted immunity as part of a controversial 2007 deal with federal prosecutors that allowed him to plead guilty to state charges rather than federal crimes.

00:18:13.000 Epstein wound up serving just 13 months in county jail and was granted work release.

00:18:17.000 That's really, really interesting.

00:18:19.000 In the Miami Herald story they mention, Actually, look, they say he donated to Barack Obama's presidential campaign months after he left the local U.S.

00:18:27.000 Attorney's Office to rep employees of the convicted pedo Jeffrey Epstein, who had received immunity in the long-running trafficking investigation of the financier.

00:18:36.000 So this guy was accused, many are arguing, I guess his side of it was he didn't have any privy information or anything.

00:18:45.000 They say, 10 months after starting work for Epstein's co-conspirators, according to the Federal Election Commission, Reinhart gave $1,000 directly to the Obama campaign and another $1,000 to its fundraising arm, the Obama Victory Fund.

00:18:57.000 Though the records show the judge made mostly small-dollar donations, blah blah blah.

00:19:01.000 I don't know how much I care about the donation stuff, but I think what's interesting is that he's basically accused of flipping sides.

00:19:09.000 In a 2013 court filing, Reinhart's former colleagues contradicted him, saying he had learned confidential non-public information about the Epstein matter while employed by the U.S.

00:19:18.000 Attorney's Office.

00:19:19.000 Reinhardt noted to the Herald in response that a complaint filed against him by a lawyer for Epstein's victims had been dismissed.

00:19:25.000 In a 2011 affidavit, Reinhardt denied he had done anything improper and insisted that since he was not involved in the federal investigation of Epstein, he was not privy to inside information about the case.

00:19:35.000 As recently as January 2015, Reinhardt was asked to appear on Newsmax to give analysis on the Epstein fallout, but declined to publicly note his own role in the case.

00:19:44.000 Okay.

00:19:45.000 Maybe.

00:19:46.000 It's just he's a judge in the area.

00:19:48.000 That's all it is, right?

00:19:49.000 Maybe it's just one big coincidence.

00:19:52.000 My favorite conspiracy theory right now.

00:19:55.000 Donald Trump apparently took classified documents to Mar-a-Lago.

00:20:00.000 The conspiracy theory is he took it as leverage from his time as president.

00:20:06.000 I mean, look, people were saying that if Trump lost, they would lock him up, right?

00:20:11.000 And so now the theory is Trump took leverage.

00:20:14.000 They're trying to get the leverage back.

00:20:16.000 That being said, I do believe the simple solution in the absence of evidence is simply that Trump had a bunch of staffers grabbing boxes from the White House when he was leaving, some of those boxes had documents, that's about it.

00:20:27.000 But if that's all that it is, like, if I said this today, if I was on the left right now, and if I was a big, you know, anti-Trump person, I would be furious at the FBI right now.

00:20:37.000 I'd be furious at this judge, because if you shoot the king and miss, Like, your whole case is destroyed.

00:20:43.000 You just made the best possible argument for Trump 2024.

00:20:45.000 So if it's really just, oh, well, there's a few boxes that got pulled from some staffers and ended up in his house, and that was enough to issue this whole raid on his house.

00:20:54.000 And you saw today the FBI saying, we don't like the word raid.

00:20:56.000 Stop using raid.

00:20:57.000 So then you saw MSNBC go in real time and change the word raid to a, oh, a routine search warrant.

00:21:04.000 And so if it's all that it was, it's just some boxes got left behind.

00:21:07.000 Like, they just made the case for Trump 2024.

00:21:09.000 Which says to me, I mean, I believe they know that.

00:21:12.000 Yeah.

00:21:12.000 That going after a sitting president is a very, very serious matter.

00:21:17.000 So they really wanted whatever those documents were.

00:21:22.000 Again, look, when it comes to conspiracy theories, they're fun.

00:21:25.000 I'd love to believe in a world where Trump is behind the scenes and he's like walking down the hallway and they're like, Mr. Former President, we have the plan.

00:21:33.000 We have the documents here and he's like, they don't know who they're up against.

00:21:37.000 But in reality, it's like some intern grabbed a box and he's just like, what are they searching for?

00:21:41.000 They're in my safe and then they find a box and it's like just routine confidential nonsense.

00:21:47.000 Is Trump the mastermind everybody wants him to be?

00:21:49.000 Is there a deep underground?

00:21:51.000 Is there a cabal?

00:21:52.000 Is there a secret conspiracy?

00:21:53.000 are the elites at war?

00:21:56.000 I don't think he's a mastermind, but I do think you nailed it earlier when you were

00:22:00.000 talking about some of the agencies in the deep state that his presidency exposed, like

00:22:04.000 how big that rot was.

00:22:06.000 So I think Trump's a guy more than anything that's just honest and pretty bombastic in

00:22:09.000 nature and so he came in and he's going with his playbook and there are a lot of people

00:22:13.000 in the way of that playbook and I don't think it was because of his genius 4D chess.

00:22:17.000 I think he was just being different than any president we've ever had and in turn it blew

00:22:22.000 blew up a lot of the.

00:22:23.000 China that was in the Oval Office and in the bureaucratic establishment of DC and then

00:22:27.000 all of a sudden we're realizing that like, whoa, the mess is way deeper than we realized.

00:22:31.000 And so we credit that to Trump, but Trump's just being who he is.

00:22:33.000 Trump just came in like a bull in a China shop and knocked everything over.

00:22:37.000 And in turn, we're learning like, whoa, this is this stench is rotten. 0.77

00:22:40.000 I think, you know, what I've said in the past about Trump is that he slips on a banana peel,

00:22:44.000 but pulls a perfect backflip.

00:22:45.000 Yes.

00:22:45.000 Yes, like you watch him go whoa and then he just lands.

00:22:48.000 Like the Ukraine gate.

00:22:50.000 The phone call he had with, I think it was Alinsky, was funny because he was like,

00:22:55.000 what's this thing we're hearing about Joe Biden and the prosecutor, I don't know, could you look into that?

00:23:00.000 And it was like, they tried painting Trump as this nefarious like 4D chess mastermind

00:23:05.000 who was orchestrating, sabotaging Joe Biden's candidacy, when the reality was he was on Twitter

00:23:10.000 and he saw a video someone retweeted of Biden saying, if you don't fire the prosecutor,

00:23:14.000 you don't get the billion dollars, And then Trump's like, well, I better call this guy and ask

00:23:17.000 him.

00:23:17.000 He's like, what is that?

00:23:19.000 And so they're like, he's a mastermind trying to sabotage Biden.

00:23:23.000 He probably slept on a banana peel, but...

00:23:26.000 It worked.

00:23:26.000 Yeah, it worked.

00:23:27.000 Now we all know about it.

00:23:28.000 So more Forrest Gump than Adolf Hitler is what you're saying? 0.52

00:23:31.000 Yeah.

00:23:32.000 Yeah, I think so.

00:23:32.000 Exactly.

00:23:33.000 That's a really good way to put it.

00:23:34.000 He's not thinking 10 steps ahead.

00:23:36.000 Yeah.

00:23:37.000 And it works out because I actually, you know, people believe what they want about Trump.

00:23:42.000 That's fine.

00:23:42.000 I my big thing is that I believe he means what he says, um, especially related to his

00:23:48.000 motivations around things.

00:23:49.000 Honestly, he's pretty forward about his own self interest in a lot of dealings, but his

00:23:54.000 self interest ends up helping the American people a lot of ways.

00:23:57.000 This was his campaign in 2016 is like this pro America nationalist sort of mentality

00:24:02.000 around things like manufacturing and the economy in general, like that resonated with American

00:24:06.000 people because by being himself in turn, it was really fighting for the interest that

00:24:10.000 Americans finally felt like were represented by a political candidate.

00:24:13.000 And I just, you know, I'm chilling.

00:24:17.000 Things may be bad.

00:24:17.000 The night is always darkest before the dawn.

00:24:19.000 But from 2016 to now, when you think about how the establishment lost control, it's kind of funny.

00:24:24.000 Yeah.

00:24:25.000 He gave me a psychic jolt of like, you as an American can take care of yourself and your immediate reality, but also I've started to think about the military-industrial complex, and I used to be very hateful of it and critical of it, but now I'm like, there's gonna be one on Earth.

00:24:43.000 There's gonna be an overarching military.

00:24:45.000 Is it gonna be one that the U.S.

00:24:46.000 controls, or is it gonna be one that China controls?

00:24:48.000 I just want to make sure I issue a clarification, because it may have sounded as if we were saying he does have classified information.

00:24:54.000 I don't know that.

00:24:55.000 That's just the accusation.

00:24:57.000 People are claiming that the Feds did seize the documents they were looking for.

00:25:00.000 I don't know if that's confirmed.

00:25:01.000 I saw these tweets where they're like, well, if they went in there, that means they had to have gotten a warrant, which means he must have been committing a crime.

00:25:08.000 I'm like, what in the hell kind of?

00:25:11.000 Reverse logic, what did you do?

00:25:13.000 Well, they don't believe in the Fifth Amendment.

00:25:14.000 Innocent until proven guilty.

00:25:16.000 Just because they say they found something doesn't mean they found something.

00:25:21.000 You really need evidence here.

00:25:22.000 We gotta display evidence.

00:25:23.000 I don't like the Patriot Act.

00:25:24.000 I don't like that people can detain people without recourse.

00:25:28.000 This is insane.

00:25:29.000 Are you starting to understand the banality of evil, Ian?

00:25:32.000 These are people who are cheering for the idea of guilty until proven innocent.

00:25:37.000 Well, I don't hear innocent people getting raided by the FBI, so clearly it must mean Trump's guilty.

00:25:41.000 If you have nothing to hide, then let them spy on you.

00:25:44.000 Like, no, that's not how it works, man.

00:25:45.000 You have the right to privacy.

00:25:46.000 Yeah, and I tweeted something the other day about the IRS and how these 87,000 agents are coming and they're going to make your life worse in every conceivable way.

00:25:54.000 And someone said, well, you shouldn't be worried if you don't have anything to hide.

00:25:57.000 And I'm like, so I should be fine with surveillance because I don't have anything to hide.

00:26:01.000 That's the exact same argument. 0.99

00:26:02.000 What about your balls? 1.00

00:26:03.000 Yeah, right. 0.99

00:26:03.000 If they're putting cameras everywhere, maybe you don't want people looking at your body. 0.99

00:26:07.000 And also, what if they pass some new law where it's like, it's illegal to be a human.

00:26:11.000 And then they're like, you're like, or it's illegal to walk outside. 0.99

00:26:14.000 Like, you can't make a stupid law and then spy on someone to see if they're violating your stupid law and then bust them for that. 0.99

00:26:21.000 Yeah, just because your conscience is clean and you're not doing anything wrong doesn't mean you should have your house broken into. 1.00

00:26:26.000 Especially when you're the former president of the United States, with all the political implications that come with that.

00:26:31.000 And then even this representative from Pennsylvania, like, he just said what happened.

00:26:34.000 Agents walked up, took his phone.

00:26:36.000 They could have gone through the lawyers, there would have been a cordial process, but it was that, nope, you know what, we believe you're guilty already, and we're just gonna yank it.

00:26:42.000 They wanted to make sure he didn't delete anything off his phone, but like, they gave Hillary Clinton plenty of time to switch her emails.

00:26:47.000 She had her phone smashed with hammers. 0.81

00:26:49.000 Of course she was working with the DNC and the Democratic establishment.

00:26:53.000 I don't want to play Democrat-Republican here.

00:26:55.000 She's with that liberal economic order. 0.97

00:26:58.000 And I don't think this guy was.

00:26:59.000 Fair point is that Trump has not been charged with anything.

00:27:02.000 And they did take Hillary Clinton's server and scan through it and read every email.

00:27:09.000 Yeah, I saw some pretty damning stuff come out of her emails.

00:27:11.000 Oh, yeah?

00:27:12.000 Oh, I mean, there was a hundred and- I mean, well, for one, the WikiLeaks stuff.

00:27:15.000 Yeah.

00:27:15.000 The DCCC and things like that.

00:27:17.000 But, uh, she had a hundred and ten classified emails.

00:27:19.000 So, people are pointing out now, like, yeah, well, they did it to Hillary, and she didn't get charged with a crime, and Trump's not being charged with a crime, and it's like, yes, we understand.

00:27:26.000 There is a double standard.

00:27:28.000 Yeah.

00:27:29.000 They're not going to come out and be like, well, Trump did it, but so did Hillary.

00:27:32.000 No, they're gonna be like, Trump did it.

00:27:33.000 Lock him up.

00:27:35.000 I'm getting the feeling people are like starting to accept that it's like ah Just okay.

00:27:40.000 Maybe the government is kind of dirty and evil and they got a side that they want you to be on But I just want to be on that side then let's just keep doing our life Let's keep having Sunday cookouts and eating watermelon and life's gonna be dandelions But like at some point you got to stand up for righteousness itself and and like not just be in a club I don't know man.

00:27:59.000 Maybe that's not true.

00:28:00.000 Maybe it's like pick your tribe and that's how it's always been and I don't know.

00:28:05.000 I, yeah, no, I don't know how you would go to sleep at night.

00:28:08.000 If I knew what was right and I don't do it, it's that exact thing.

00:28:11.000 I'm denying righteousness.

00:28:13.000 I'm denying the opportunity to make change.

00:28:14.000 I think people have lost the hope that they can make change, which is a deeper issue because

00:28:18.000 I think they feel like, okay, well, the establishment's in place and clearly it's not moving.

00:28:22.000 If they're willing to go after the former president, like they can destroy my life.

00:28:25.000 I think there's a level of hopelessness.

00:28:27.000 But my big encouragement to people all the time is like that happened over the course of a few decades.

00:28:32.000 It can be reversed over the course of a few decades as well.

00:28:34.000 Like all you need is someone to come in into different positions of power in regions around the country that basically strip everything out.

00:28:42.000 One thing that I'm excited about that I was disappointed in Trump even going back to this conversation in 2016 is He had all these hopes of draining the swamp.

00:28:50.000 He gets in.

00:28:50.000 He refuses to fire a lot of the people that made the problems really, really bad.

00:28:53.000 His worst mistake was that he had personnel around him that was really detrimental.

00:28:58.000 Now, I think if it was to be him or anyone in 2024, you're right, Ian.

00:29:03.000 Everything is so out in the open that it's like you can't deny it anymore.

00:29:05.000 You have to uproot or else we're not going to make it moving forward.

00:29:08.000 This is why they won't allow a power transfer.

00:29:10.000 Exactly.

00:29:11.000 This is the Democratic establishment, the Democrats, and many conservatives, rejecting the peaceful transition of power, but they're doing it early.

00:29:20.000 It's funny because there's viral tweets.

00:29:21.000 Jack Posobiec retweeted one guy who was criticizing Trump over Ukrainegate, saying he was going after his political rival.

00:29:29.000 And it's like, where are you now?

00:29:31.000 Yeah.

00:29:32.000 Because what's the difference?

00:29:34.000 If that was your argument.

00:29:35.000 Yeah.

00:29:36.000 Joe Biden didn't announce he was running for president.

00:29:37.000 No one thought he was gonna.

00:29:39.000 They didn't think he was a frontrunner.

00:29:40.000 And the funny thing is, many progressives who were Bernie progressives were telling me, like, he's clearly going after Biden.

00:29:44.000 And I'm like, aren't you a Bernie supporter?

00:29:46.000 Like, what makes you think Biden is the frontrunner?

00:29:49.000 Why, why wouldn't Trump be going after Bernie?

00:29:51.000 He was the guy everyone was talking about.

00:29:52.000 And they were like, oh, well.

00:29:55.000 You know, in regards to what you're saying, Michael, about winding it back, like it took us 20 years from the Patriot Act to get to this crazy surveillance state that we could wind it back.

00:30:02.000 I don't know if that's true, because the digital data is there to be scraped.

00:30:06.000 And it's like we have to go forward and create like encryption, like levels of quantum encryption that even government agencies and military complex machines can't hack if that's possible.

00:30:20.000 And it's like, There's no, it's like an avalanche and we're not going to make the avalanche go back uphill.

00:30:25.000 You just got to figure out how to build a suit so that you can swim the avalanche and not get crushed by the snow.

00:30:30.000 What does reversing course mean for individuals anyway?

00:30:34.000 In what, in what context?

00:30:36.000 in this transfer of power? Well, because we complied with it for two decades. Like we,

00:30:42.000 we've done the things we've danced the dance, we've done what they've told us to we bought

00:30:45.000 the stuff from China, we sacrificed our convictions and what made America special on the altars of 0.95

00:30:50.000 cheap convenience, we did the things so that we could have levels of ease and convenience in the

00:30:55.000 marketplace and our travel experience and etc. And I think part of reverting course in my mind looks

00:31:01.000 like the average American standing up and just detaching from that system anymore saying I'm

00:31:05.000 I'm not going to keep going along with it.

00:31:07.000 And so we saw a lot of that happen in the past year with COVID and the whole vaccine mandate stuff is you had people finally get pushed to a brink where they said, like, my job's on the line, but I don't care.

00:31:16.000 My convictions are so strong that I'll let them fire me.

00:31:19.000 And they'll take away the demand.

00:31:21.000 And then you see companies start to revert course because of that.

00:31:23.000 I think that's how we do it.

00:31:24.000 For a lot of people, it wasn't just about convictions.

00:31:26.000 It was just a stress test.

00:31:27.000 Some people were like, I'm just done.

00:31:29.000 I'd rather sleep on a bench.

00:31:30.000 I'd rather just sleep in the street than deal with all of this stuff.

00:31:35.000 Let me pull up this next story.

00:31:37.000 We have this tweet from Talk Radio 77 WABC.

00:31:41.000 Breaking news!

00:31:42.000 Palm Beach authorities on alert about armed protesters expected at Mar-a-Lago.

00:31:48.000 And I love, uh, I love the comments people are saying things like, it's gonna be a bunch of guys in polo shirts, khaki shorts, and sunglasses.

00:31:55.000 You know it.

00:31:55.000 With short trim hair, and that's right, fed boys.

00:31:59.000 So, I don't know if there's any developments on this, or how much this story is legit, but we did see a bunch of people out in front of Mar-a-Lago protesting and cheering for Trump.

00:32:09.000 And so when I see a story like this, for one, Fed boys, that's basically what everybody is saying, that they're gonna come out and it's gonna, you know, what would you call it, I guess, a false flag?

00:32:21.000 Oh, I see what you're saying, yeah.

00:32:22.000 Yeah, the Feds are gonna come out pretending to be Trump supporters or something.

00:32:26.000 It's not just that.

00:32:28.000 They're going to lure groups who aren't part of the Fed to participate, but then maybe there's the hanging threat that the Feds are going to incite violence and then blame it on the ordinary people they lured there.

00:32:43.000 Exactly.

00:32:44.000 That's what happened on January 6th, right?

00:32:46.000 Well, it's unverified, but we don't know that.

00:32:50.000 There are suppositions, like with Ray Epps, that he had been a plant.

00:32:53.000 I don't even know if that's ever been confirmed.

00:32:55.000 Did he used to work for the FBI or anything?

00:32:57.000 I don't know or care to speculate on Ray Epps because of what they're trying to do to manipulate that story.

00:33:04.000 My point on this is simple.

00:33:06.000 Let's approach it from, hey, there's a guy on camera inciting violence.

00:33:09.000 You should arrest him.

00:33:10.000 Yeah, yeah, that's the target, not the other group.

00:33:11.000 Oh, I see, yeah.

00:33:11.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, he's on video.

00:33:12.000 Instead, what they're doing is they're using the fact that people have claimed conspiracy

00:33:15.000 theory to discredit the entirety of the Ray Epps scam.

00:33:19.000 But Epps was yelling, like, let's go to the Capitol stuff.

00:33:22.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:33:23.000 He's on video.

00:33:24.000 Like, very blatantly.

00:33:25.000 Let me tell you about this tactic used by leftists for a long time.

00:33:28.000 What they do is they'll get a handful of people.

00:33:32.000 They will organize a peaceful protest so they can get mass.

00:33:36.000 And they'll say, everybody come down and march and raise your fist.

00:33:39.000 They will coordinate different groups with their strategy.

00:33:44.000 They'll say some people's job is to obstruct.

00:33:46.000 So they'll convince people like, hey, stand here.

00:33:48.000 The people don't know what they're doing.

00:33:51.000 When they go for a peaceful protest, they have no idea the plan of the organizers.

00:33:54.000 The pawn has no idea that the knight is about to move next.

00:33:57.000 And so what they'll do is they have aggressors, basically, that will mix in the crowd and incite the violence because they want to do two things.

00:34:06.000 They need the cover of a mass group to be able to engage in violence and get away.

00:34:09.000 And they also want videos of these regular people being beaten by cops.

00:34:14.000 So they will start the fight.

00:34:15.000 The regular person will get hit.

00:34:17.000 They will then go to their regular person and say, why were the cops hitting you?

00:34:20.000 What?

00:34:21.000 Oh, can you believe you got to join us, man?

00:34:24.000 That's how they recruit.

00:34:25.000 That's the plan.

00:34:26.000 That's how the FBI works to perpetuate its own existence.

00:34:32.000 They create the reasons that they supposedly exist.

00:34:35.000 Right, look at the Whitmer thing.

00:34:36.000 Yeah, great example.

00:34:38.000 Yeah, what was it like?

00:34:39.000 They were all informants?

00:34:40.000 Yeah, it was like one guy that wasn't.

00:34:43.000 The poor guy just got brought in.

00:34:45.000 And that's what they do.

00:34:45.000 They'll target the lonely people that are isolated from community and they'll lead them to feel like they're part of some movement and it's all these feds that are inviting them into creating a problem that requires them to be the solution.

00:34:59.000 And there are a lot of people that do this in the corporate world, too.

00:35:02.000 I mean, George Soros gets accused of this often, putting money toward destruction so that he can come in and profit off the cleanup.

00:35:08.000 You know, there's a lot there that we've seen this time and time again.

00:35:12.000 Part of the reason I'm so frustrated with the FBI and their dealings is that It's not just what they're doing, like this Trump scenario, like this guy with his phone, it's also what they're not doing.

00:35:21.000 So in the process of spending all of their time sending all these agents to Trump's home, they're ignoring the fact that the current president's son, we have him on video and photo evidence, instances where the guy is dealing in incredibly illegal activity and they're silent.

00:35:36.000 Or Larry Nassar, silent.

00:35:38.000 What's the Larry Nassar thing?

00:35:39.000 The gymnastics, USA Gymnastics.

00:35:40.000 I don't know about this, tell me about it.

00:35:41.000 Yeah, crazy.

00:35:42.000 He's abusing the girls? 0.67

00:35:43.000 Yeah, and the FBI knew about it.

00:35:45.000 They knew about Epstein.

00:35:46.000 Yeah, they knew about Epstein.

00:35:47.000 I mean, the examples are endless, and you're absolutely right.

00:35:50.000 Oftentimes, they need to boost their budget, they need to create problems so that they can exemplify why they're needed as a solution.

00:35:58.000 Another example of that I think is industrial, agricultural, pharmaceutical, like this thing where they'll feed people bread that's sprayed with glyphosate, the wheat, as a desiccant to dry it out before harvest that makes people just like grotesquely ill.

00:36:11.000 And then they create pills that will, you know, treat it.

00:36:15.000 And then so they're not only creating the glyphosate or these, I don't know if it's all the same people, but they're creating the chemicals that to put on the food to make the people sick, then they make the medicines to them.

00:36:23.000 It's self-replicating.

00:36:24.000 The medicines make people sick.

00:36:27.000 Yeah, a lot of times they do.

00:36:28.000 A lot of times the treatments make people more sick than the diseases themselves.

00:36:31.000 It's a terrible reality of using experimental medicine on a population.

00:36:38.000 It's devastating.

00:36:39.000 Well, a perfect example recently is that I'm not insinuating anything, YouTube, but Pfizer is upping their intentionality with heart issue medicine.

00:36:51.000 So issues like myocarditis, pushing prescriptions that solve that issue.

00:36:56.000 You make your conclusions as to why, but yes, it's this exact thing.

00:37:01.000 Pfizer and these big pharmaceutical companies, they operate by the same playbook.

00:37:05.000 Wasn't there like a document recently?

00:37:07.000 I saw some story where they basically said we should reconsider curing diseases.

00:37:12.000 Really?

00:37:12.000 That sounds like a type of headline you could expect.

00:37:14.000 Oh, I hope you got that on.

00:37:15.000 Can you Google that?

00:37:16.000 I'm gonna look it up.

00:37:17.000 I saw that on Twitter.

00:37:18.000 They were like, we should reconsider.

00:37:19.000 I can't remember where I saw it.

00:37:20.000 What's the word?

00:37:21.000 It may actually be an old story.

00:37:23.000 Like reconsider.

00:37:24.000 I remember that.

00:37:26.000 Yeah, it was something about like... Is it a story or just an opinion piece?

00:37:29.000 No, I think I saw it was a document from... I could be wrong.

00:37:32.000 That's why I'm saying fact check it because I just saw it on social media.

00:37:35.000 Yeah, it was something like from a drug company and they were like, it's not really monetarily wise to cure diseases.

00:37:41.000 We just need to like sell these pills.

00:37:43.000 Let me look it up.

00:37:44.000 I'm seeing from popsci.com, we're closer to curing all diseases than we think.

00:37:49.000 They're like curing blindness.

00:37:51.000 I mean, if we can actually heal the blind and let the blind see again... A lot of people think they have the cure to cancer and are hiding it from everyone.

00:38:00.000 So they have to pay for the treatment.

00:38:02.000 The truth is that cancer comes from so many different sources that there's not like a single cure for cancer.

00:38:07.000 So I understand the thinking because the cost of fixing cancer is extremely lucrative.

00:38:13.000 But did you find it?

00:38:14.000 I mean, I found a story.

00:38:15.000 Oh, snap. 0.99

00:38:16.000 From Medpage Today.

00:38:17.000 What?

00:38:17.000 Curing patients is bad for business.

00:38:19.000 Well, yes.

00:38:20.000 Apparently, they say, an article by Takem on CNBC, Goldman Sachs issued a report, so it's not a drug company, that suggested that drug developers might want to think twice about making drugs that were too effective.

00:38:29.000 Hmm.

00:38:30.000 What do you say?

00:38:31.000 The potential to deliver one-shot cures is one of the most attractive aspects of gene therapy.

00:38:35.000 Genetically engineered cell therapy and gene editing.

00:38:38.000 However, such treatments offer a very different outlook with regard to recurring revenue versus chronic therapies.

00:38:43.000 While the proposition carries tremendous value for patients and society, it could represent a challenge for genome medicine developers looking for sustained cash flow.

00:38:51.000 Oh, medicine developers looking for cash flow.

00:38:54.000 That's so gross.

00:38:54.000 Isn't the first lightbulb ever still on and has been on for like a hundred years in like a firehouse in New York or something like that?

00:39:00.000 Wow.

00:39:01.000 I don't know.

00:39:01.000 Yeah, can you pull that up?

00:39:03.000 The argument, the idea was that they needed planned obsolescence.

00:39:07.000 Otherwise you'd sell a lightbulb and then you'd never sell another one.

00:39:09.000 It was too effective.

00:39:11.000 Too effective.

00:39:12.000 Well, yeah, I found an article from CNBC that says Goldman Sachs asks, in a biotech research report, is curing patients a sustainable business model?

00:39:20.000 And I guess it kind of makes sense that it's not, which makes us then ask, why?

00:39:24.000 Yeah, 2018, we have it right here, CNBC.

00:39:25.000 Yeah, it's from a few years ago.

00:39:26.000 Just use gene therapy that wears off and you need to boost it.

00:39:29.000 Yeah, you need more boosters.

00:39:31.000 Or, how about a two-stage gene therapy?

00:39:34.000 The first one cures it, the second one starts it back up.

00:39:36.000 Yeah, just a perpetual cycle.

00:39:38.000 Or a subscription service.

00:39:42.000 Wait, how about it cures the disease, but also gives you a different disease that requires paying a subscription?

00:39:47.000 Like a one-for-one program.

00:39:49.000 Like violence.

00:39:50.000 If violence is the disease, then the military-industrial complex is the treatment.

00:39:55.000 It's not a cure.

00:39:56.000 It's a treatment.

00:39:57.000 Because if they cure the violence, then they're no longer necessary.

00:40:00.000 And then we won't have any reason to fund a military.

00:40:02.000 But then that's because they're afraid that violence will strike again.

00:40:05.000 That it'll never truly be gone.

00:40:07.000 And they're just saying with illness, illness will never truly be gone.

00:40:09.000 So if we stop making medicine, we won't be prepared when a big one comes, when an asteroid or a comet lands that has a bacterium on it that causes some new disease that Pfizer wasn't ready for.

00:40:20.000 I understand that living in fear like that.

00:40:24.000 It comes to a point where you've got to not try and profit off of the pain and suffering of humans.

00:40:30.000 You know, I was talking about this earlier.

00:40:32.000 There is a... and the other day.

00:40:34.000 There's a point in history when you look at major historical moments.

00:40:38.000 Like Spanish Civil War, or the Russian Revolution, or Nazi Germany.

00:40:45.000 When people left, they moved to other countries and survived.

00:40:50.000 And I would always read and ask them, like, why did your family flee?

00:40:54.000 What made them realize?

00:40:56.000 And you know, Nazi Germany obviously being the obvious one because of how bad things got.

00:41:00.000 Tell me an elevator pitch.

00:41:00.000 like the demonization of these groups and we were like, they're targeting us.

00:41:03.000 But then the other question is, why do people stay?

00:41:06.000 And a lot of people stayed thinking it can never happen, that it wouldn't get worse.

00:41:09.000 And so I was thinking about like Kristallnacht, right?

00:41:12.000 You're familiar?

00:41:13.000 Yeah.

00:41:13.000 The broken glass.

00:41:15.000 Yeah.

00:41:15.000 Tell me an elevator pitch.

00:41:17.000 I'm familiar, but in case people don't know.

00:41:18.000 People went around smashing up Jewish businesses.

00:41:24.000 It was like in one night in Germany, Nazi Germany. 0.67

00:41:27.000 I don't know the full historical details other than the general idea.

00:41:32.000 It was a pattern that went on for weeks, but it was one specific night, Kristallnacht,

00:41:36.000 yeah, Night of the Broken Glass, that was like lived in infamy because it was this horrible

00:41:39.000 night that the country, it was sort of like a Rubicon moment where it's like, you guys

00:41:44.000 just crossed a major line that's going to be impossible to come back from.

00:41:48.000 And then it just deescalated into everything that Nazi Germany became. 0.77

00:41:51.000 It escalated into it.

00:41:52.000 Yeah, I should say, the country deescalated.

00:41:55.000 That's a better way to word it.

00:41:56.000 So you know, I've read about people who said like, when that happened, they were like,

00:41:59.000 we have to get out of here.

00:42:01.000 And then there are a lot of people who didn't.

00:42:03.000 And it's like, when something like that happens, why didn't you get out?

00:42:05.000 Yeah.

00:42:05.000 They weren't activated socially, that's for sure.

00:42:07.000 Those people had no idea what was going on.

00:42:10.000 No, I think it's because we have the gift of hindsight.

00:42:12.000 Yeah.

00:42:13.000 So, I'll give you an example.

00:42:15.000 AOC comes out and fabricates a story about January 6th.

00:42:20.000 Someone knocked on her door and said, where is she?

00:42:23.000 Where is she?

00:42:24.000 And she's like, I'm hiding in the bathroom, and I thought, this is it, I'm gonna die, or whatever she said, I don't know.

00:42:29.000 That story happened an hour before anyone had breached the Capitol.

00:42:34.000 A full hour.

00:42:35.000 She had no idea.

00:42:37.000 However, in hindsight, she knows most people don't know the details of the day.

00:42:41.000 All they know is people stormed the Capitol.

00:42:43.000 So if she tells this story, it sounds like this thing happened.

00:42:47.000 When we read history, and we read about Kristallnacht and things like that, we think, well, how could they not have seen it coming?

00:42:54.000 Only because we know what did happen.

00:42:57.000 Today, I don't mean to imply that what's happening now is identical to what's happened in Nazi Germany or anything like that.

00:43:04.000 History doesn't repeat, it rhymes.

00:43:05.000 There are similarities.

00:43:07.000 Take a look at anything that's happened in the past couple of years and ask yourself why you haven't fled.

00:43:12.000 Because you don't know what lies ahead.

00:43:14.000 And so for us to look back on history and know what the end result was, we'd say, clearly at that point I'd get out.

00:43:19.000 Would you?

00:43:20.000 Would you really?

00:43:21.000 Any of you?

00:43:21.000 Maybe after, I don't know, billions of dollars in damage, when a Marxist political faction ransacked this country from the biggest cities and smallest town.

00:43:31.000 When we have quotes from a guy who said there was fighting in his building and he called the police in New York and they said, sir, the city is under attack, what would you have us do?

00:43:39.000 When we saw riots in almost every major city, $2 billion was the insurance cap on the damage, 30 plus dead, and everyone says, it's just a riot.

00:43:51.000 Maybe it will become something worse.

00:43:53.000 And then I wonder if in 50 years people will look back at the Summer of Love and say, why didn't they get out when that happened?

00:44:00.000 When you had Black Lives Matter, an identitarian Marxist organization, smashing things up, organizing destruction, they thought everything was fine? 1.00

00:44:12.000 Well, I'll tell you this, a lot of people have already fled to Mexico.

00:44:15.000 We read that story, we thought it was funny.

00:44:17.000 Yeah.

00:44:18.000 A lot of people are going to El Salvador and Costa Rica.

00:44:20.000 Yeah, Max Keiser.

00:44:21.000 Max Keiser, prominently, and Stacey Herbert have gone to El Salvador because they're huge maximalists for Bitcoin and they've adopted Bitcoin as a national currency in El Salvador.

00:44:30.000 El Salvador, yeah?

00:44:31.000 Yeah, El Salvador.

00:44:32.000 And, like, Einstein fled the Nazis.

00:44:34.000 Einstein fled in, like, what, 30?

00:44:35.000 And early.

00:44:36.000 36, 33, or 35?

00:44:37.000 Yeah, way, way early.

00:44:39.000 So, that's just a question I have.

00:44:41.000 I mean, so we're now at the point where The Department of Justice, under one political faction, has just raided the home of the frontrunner of the rival political faction.

00:44:53.000 Several members of his administration have been arrested.

00:44:56.000 They have now seized the phone of an active member of Congress.

00:45:00.000 Like, at what point are you like, hey, we're kind of in the thick of things where usually in history we learn about the people who survived or the ones who fled.

00:45:07.000 I will say, many people don't flee because they're like, this is my country and I will not let it collapse.

00:45:12.000 That's me, man.

00:45:13.000 I can't, you know, we live in California.

00:45:15.000 And so it's California is where everyone else will be in 10 years.

00:45:18.000 I mean, you're from New York, same deal.

00:45:20.000 Any of these big blue kind of metropolitan progressive authoritarian strongholds.

00:45:25.000 The California lifestyle at this point is so blatantly not in our favor that it's like if you're gonna stay it's because you have to feel a special sort of conviction to stay.

00:45:35.000 So I don't blame anyone that's left to Texas that goes to a red state and sets up shop there.

00:45:40.000 Good for you.

00:45:40.000 It makes sense.

00:45:41.000 For us, though, it's like, man, there's something holding me here that I can't leave.

00:45:46.000 And in the same way in the United States, it's like, it's gonna get worse before it gets better.

00:45:51.000 This is our country, I can't leave.

00:45:52.000 No matter where you flee, you run into more problems anywhere you go.

00:45:55.000 Yeah, geez, you see the way they handle people in New Zealand, the way they handle lockdowns in Australia, kicking people's doors in.

00:46:02.000 Mexico and El Salvador have their own problems that I don't think we want to deal with. 0.99

00:46:07.000 You know, when we're talking about all this, Mexico's doing pretty well.

00:46:10.000 I've been thinking a lot about fleeing and like, where would I go?

00:46:12.000 What would I do?

00:46:13.000 But I think what's happening is the United States is freaking awesome.

00:46:15.000 And the state's control is really an awesome part of why.

00:46:19.000 But people are fleeing, but they're fleeing states.

00:46:24.000 You see the people, they got out early.

00:46:26.000 They got out last year.

00:46:27.000 They got out when COVID locked onto you.

00:46:28.000 It's a bad sign of people losing their allegiance to their state and their local area, though.

00:46:32.000 It's definitely an indication.

00:46:36.000 Germany, if that's an example, is what?

00:46:38.000 Roughly the size of Texas?

00:46:39.000 Or comparable?

00:46:41.000 A little smaller than that?

00:46:43.000 We're a big country.

00:46:45.000 When the Summer of Love happened...

00:46:48.000 We did get out.

00:46:49.000 We left the South Jersey suburbs and came to West Virginia.

00:46:54.000 Western Maryland and West Virginia.

00:46:55.000 Right.

00:46:56.000 So I literally was like, I'm getting out of this place.

00:46:59.000 Right.

00:46:59.000 This is crazy.

00:47:00.000 There's a couple reasons why people wouldn't leave.

00:47:03.000 First of all, because they don't have the money to do so.

00:47:05.000 Like right now, I don't have the funds to back up and move to El Salvador.

00:47:08.000 I have no idea where I would work or what I would do if I were to do that.

00:47:11.000 And the other reason that people would not leave the U.S.

00:47:13.000 and ostensibly some of their states is that there is nowhere else to go.

00:47:16.000 And I know that, like, Steve Hilton stays in California because he thinks that maybe he can save it, and he has people who agree with him.

00:47:23.000 I have heard that much of California is not insane, crazy L.A.

00:47:26.000 people. 0.59

00:47:27.000 We're not.

00:47:27.000 Right.

00:47:28.000 Orange County, they're insane. 0.97

00:47:29.000 There are a few of us. 0.98

00:47:30.000 Right.

00:47:30.000 There's some actual conservatives over in California, because there are a lot of people there.

00:47:33.000 There are a lot of reasons to stay in the U.S., and I feel like this is just something we're going to have to go through.

00:47:37.000 I don't know what else to say.

00:47:39.000 Let me pull up this story from Yahoo News.

00:47:42.000 Hillary Clinton promotes, but her emails merge after FBI's search of Trump's Mar-a-Lago.

00:47:48.000 So her fundraiser pitch is, I did something way worse, got away with it, and now you're gonna give me money.

00:47:55.000 Oh my god.

00:47:56.000 Robots! 0.83

00:47:56.000 Oh my gosh, what is happening? 0.83

00:47:58.000 Hey, look, look, look.

00:47:58.000 hours, drops merch.

00:48:00.000 And she has that like Photoshop picture of her looking like a younger picture of her

00:48:04.000 with her huge, all that work done on those cheekbones like. 0.99

00:48:07.000 Hey look, look, look.

00:48:08.000 I don't, I don't, I don't care about the merch stuff.

00:48:11.000 Trump has dropped targeted merch.

00:48:13.000 He's also made fun of Democrats in a similar way.

00:48:16.000 We really are seeing the left try to learn from how the right did meme warfare with, like, the dark Brandon meme.

00:48:22.000 They're trying.

00:48:22.000 They're really trying.

00:48:23.000 Do you see this?

00:48:24.000 They made a Nazi meme of Joe Biden, and then they unironically posted it.

00:48:28.000 And people were like, what are you doing?

00:48:30.000 Like, that was made to make fun of Joe Biden.

00:48:32.000 Why are you posting that?

00:48:32.000 Do you have that image available?

00:48:34.000 Nazi meme, Biden?

00:48:35.000 Dark Brandon rises.

00:48:37.000 And then go to images.

00:48:38.000 Wasn't there a thought that this was a... Was it you and I was talking about this?

00:48:41.000 That this was like a Chinese app type deal?

00:48:43.000 Yeah, I wasn't able to confirm this.

00:48:45.000 I saw something on Twitter.

00:48:46.000 I know everything on Twitter is true.

00:48:47.000 Because I was super curious.

00:48:48.000 Yeah, I really want to look into that.

00:48:50.000 So we have it right here.

00:48:51.000 Here it is.

00:48:52.000 So this is a mockery of The Dark Knight Rises, where there's a bat in the in like there's skyscrapers and he's looking down and there's like a bat in the buildings.

00:49:00.000 And so they did this eagle, which many people pointed out is very similar to the the Nazi eagle.

00:49:06.000 And he looks like Vladimir Lenin in that picture.

00:49:10.000 You know, hey, maybe you guys, when people make memes to make fun of Joe Biden, and then you just take them and repost them, you should probably look into what you're doing.

00:49:18.000 Yeah.

00:49:19.000 Yeah, was this supposed to be endearing?

00:49:21.000 They're just illiterate to the internet.

00:49:23.000 This is like in your face.

00:49:25.000 Like if it does if history looks back and like this is when the United States went full like totalitarian and then you see that image and they're like, oh, they just blatantly told everyone he was doing gonna do it.

00:49:33.000 Well, I mean, but like Joe Biden doesn't even know this meme exists.

00:49:36.000 Yeah.

00:49:36.000 You see the video of him trying to shake Chuck Schumer's hand twice?

00:49:39.000 Oh my gosh.

00:49:40.000 That was weird.

00:49:40.000 And the jacket?

00:49:41.000 Just held it there.

00:49:42.000 Yeah.

00:49:42.000 Well, no, he shakes it.

00:49:44.000 Chuck Schumer talks, turns around, shakes Biden's hand.

00:49:48.000 Biden puts his hand down and then looks and then pulls his hand out again and he stares at him and then like puts it to his face.

00:49:54.000 I can't imagine living in the fever dream that I'm experiencing on a daily basis.

00:49:58.000 They're like bringing BTS into the White House and he's like, Hi, who are you?

00:50:03.000 And they don't speak any English.

00:50:06.000 What's BTS?

00:50:07.000 That K-pop band?

00:50:09.000 What does BTS mean?

00:50:11.000 Bangtan Soyeondan?

00:50:12.000 Is that what it means?

00:50:13.000 Does it?

00:50:14.000 I don't know.

00:50:14.000 Behind the scenes?

00:50:15.000 I thought it was behind the scenes or something like that.

00:50:20.000 You're right though on the fundraising piece.

00:50:22.000 Do you remember last year when there was that video that came out attacking DeSantis because they didn't want him to get credit for how awesome Florida's doing?

00:50:31.000 So they basically tried to Showcase that Florida's this terrible place full of freedom and it was like this lovely video of all these people Smiling and laughing and they're like they don't take math seriously, and it's this family walking on the beach It's like yeah, you guys don't realize but you keep shooting yourself in the foot when you try to do stuff like this Yeah

00:50:48.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:50:49.000 Trump's done similar things, and Trump supporters have done similar things in terms of making targeted merch.

00:50:55.000 But my point on the whole thing is like, coming out and being like, we got away with it, now give us money.

00:50:59.000 It's kind of like, you know, people are already worried about a double standard and an imbalance in the justice system.

00:51:07.000 Cackling while you raise money off of it is probably not going to help this country.

00:51:11.000 No.

00:51:12.000 But, you know, the funny thing is many of these Democrats think Donald Trump is the one who's committing all the crimes because they don't read the news.

00:51:17.000 Yep.

00:51:17.000 Dude, what is up with... People are obsessed with the cult.

00:51:21.000 But what I mean is the cult worship of the humans.

00:51:25.000 I'm all about politics and understanding the way government works and how many people you need to hire to be in the republic and to facilitate the transfer of power, but when you get obsessed about the individuals and you're like, well, Joe Biden, some people talk about Joe Biden, then another person's like, yeah, but Trump, that has nothing to do with what I'm talking about right now.

00:51:43.000 Let's focus on...

00:51:45.000 It's like it's a video game or like a movie and they're talking about their favorite characters or the villains they hate.

00:51:51.000 It seems so detached from reality of like, you better get enough food for your kids or for yourself.

00:51:56.000 We got to really focus on making sure we reach our basic necessities.

00:52:02.000 Yeah, the people who live in cities, for the most part, have no idea when it comes to basic necessities.

00:52:07.000 No.

00:52:08.000 I was arguing with a guy on Twitter once.

00:52:10.000 It was really funny.

00:52:10.000 He's a Yang supporter.

00:52:12.000 And I was a big fan of Yang early on.

00:52:15.000 I think he's done things I don't agree with, but he's all right.

00:52:17.000 He's, you know, whatever.

00:52:19.000 Oh, I love him.

00:52:19.000 But he was talking about UBI, and I was like, I agree with, like, he's created this huge, extensive policy list.

00:52:25.000 He's really thought about it.

00:52:26.000 I respect that.

00:52:27.000 But UBI makes no sense.

00:52:29.000 I asked some guy, we were arguing, and I can't remember exactly what the context was, why we brought it up, but I mentioned, like, eventually there's not going to be food in supermarkets, or eventually people won't be able to source things like milk, if there's no one who's, you know, who's doing base level jobs, or we have to create a surf class, and he's like, what do you mean?

00:52:47.000 The milk's at the store.

00:52:48.000 And then I was like, I was like, yeah, but like the milk won't come from the production to the store.

00:52:54.000 So people can't get it.

00:52:55.000 He's like, what are you talking about?

00:52:56.000 People just go to the store to get milk.

00:52:58.000 And then I was like, the store won't have milk when the people that bottle it don't sell it to them.

00:53:04.000 And he's like, I don't know what you're trying to say.

00:53:05.000 And I'm like, Whoa.

00:53:06.000 Oh my gosh.

00:53:07.000 Did you guys see the video last week of the girl that's the farmer who was showcasing the bale of hay in her trunk?

00:53:13.000 Did you guys see this?

00:53:14.000 No.

00:53:14.000 And she was talking about how much the price has skyrocketed of her hay that she has to get to feed her cattle that then produce the milk and the meat.

00:53:22.000 And so she talks about how her hay is like quadrupled in the last 12 months and her warning to everyone is this will be passed on to you this fall.

00:53:29.000 Of course.

00:53:29.000 Like if you think that this is isolated, wait till it hits the shopping centers and you see your price of beef and of milk skyrocket because to feed these animals is becoming so incredibly expensive.

00:53:40.000 Even chickens.

00:53:40.000 Yeah, even chickens.

00:53:41.000 But here's the other thing people need to understand too.

00:53:42.000 We give these animals corn.

00:53:44.000 Now, there are a lot of farms.

00:53:46.000 You come out here, and we see the cows eating grass all day.

00:53:49.000 You got the chickens, they're eating feed, they're eating lair, but they're eating bugs.

00:53:53.000 But in a lot of places, it's just corn.

00:53:56.000 Factory farmed salmon.

00:53:57.000 Corn.

00:53:58.000 Yeah, subsidized. 0.93

00:54:00.000 Yeah, really gross.

00:54:01.000 I need to reclaim my name's heritage. 0.94

00:54:03.000 I don't know if this is true, but I heard that tilapia are fed in farms underneath these cages or like wire platforms that chickens are above them and like Crap into?

00:54:17.000 Crap into the water and then the tilapia eat it and that's like how they feed the tilapia.

00:54:22.000 I don't think that's possible. 0.99

00:54:23.000 That goes into grocery stores.

00:54:25.000 I hope not.

00:54:25.000 I don't think that's possible because the chickens have one hole, a cloaca, and there's like a hen has three things.

00:54:32.000 They have like where the egg comes from and they have like the poop and the peat and it mixes together.

00:54:37.000 So you've got urea and other stuff in there.

00:54:38.000 So it would poison the water is the reason they couldn't do it?

00:54:40.000 Yeah, the water would just become I hope it's not true.

00:54:43.000 I don't want it to be true.

00:54:45.000 I remember working in the restaurant industry for like 15 years, you know, up until about five or six years ago, and they would talk a lot about farmed tilapia.

00:54:54.000 It was way nasty.

00:54:55.000 It was like one of the nastiest fish you could ever order from a restaurant is farmed.

00:54:59.000 You want wild tilapia if you're ever going to get tilapia.

00:55:02.000 I don't know why, though.

00:55:03.000 Maybe it has something to do with that.

00:55:05.000 Maybe not.

00:55:05.000 You know what I'd prefer to believe?

00:55:07.000 You know, people who believe in these big conspiracies, you know, like, I don't think there's a grand global cabal.

00:55:12.000 I think there are powerful interests vying for power and colluding behind the scenes.

00:55:17.000 So the Epstein stuff, like, well, I mean, Maxwell was convicted, like, we know they were doing this stuff, and we know they were connected with powerful individuals, maybe it was blackmail or whatever.

00:55:26.000 But they clearly didn't have full control, because Epstein is no longer alive.

00:55:30.000 And Maxwell is locked up. So it wasn't, you know, I don't think that there's one, like, Illuminati or

00:55:36.000 something like that. I just think Powerpuff Girls do this stuff. I'd prefer to believe that aliens 1.00

00:55:40.000 controlled everything. It's, if I'm gonna believe something, you know, as grandiose, I'm gonna,

00:55:45.000 I'm gonna shoot for the stars. Literally, and assume it's aliens.

00:55:48.000 Some people call them God.

00:55:49.000 Other people call them aliens.

00:55:51.000 Some people call them interdimensional beings.

00:55:54.000 So when you mention JFK saying there's like a greater force at play, we're all imagining there's like some military industrial complex, but it's actually a fifth dimensional DMT elf or something.

00:56:03.000 You know, a demon from beyond the veil.

00:56:05.000 Joe Rogan would fall out of his chair.

00:56:09.000 It's more fun to believe in that stuff.

00:56:12.000 More fun.

00:56:13.000 It's definitely true. 0.57

00:56:14.000 Spirit war is no joke.

00:56:17.000 I was going to say, absolutely.

00:56:18.000 I'm a big believer.

00:56:19.000 I'm a person of faith.

00:56:20.000 I believe that a lot of this is spiritual warfare.

00:56:23.000 It's interesting to see the people who have realized that over the past few years.

00:56:26.000 I heard Tucker Carlson speak, of all people.

00:56:28.000 He was speaking at a church that I go to in San Diego.

00:56:32.000 And this guy's on stage, Tucker Carlson, largest talk show, this was like three months ago, largest talk show host in the world.

00:56:37.000 And this guy looks at this audience and says, I am thinking I'm insane in real time for even saying this.

00:56:43.000 Because I, two years ago, never would have believed myself if I said what I'm about to say.

00:56:46.000 Everything that we're seeing is that there's something deeper going on.

00:56:49.000 There's something spiritual.

00:56:50.000 I'm not sure what it is, but there's some deeper war at play here because this doesn't make sense anymore.

00:56:55.000 Like, all the basic fabric of humanity is being ripped up.

00:56:59.000 Things related to our identity.

00:57:00.000 Who are men?

00:57:00.000 Who are women?

00:57:01.000 Like, basic things that we just accepted as truth for thousands of years, now people are attacking.

00:57:06.000 And so he basically said, I have come to believe that this is far greater than politics.

00:57:10.000 This is way deeper.

00:57:11.000 And so I do think there's like a cultural shift happening where we're all realizing that this goes a lot deeper than just party politics.

00:57:17.000 It's not like a GOP versus Dem thing.

00:57:19.000 There's a much deeper thing going on.

00:57:21.000 Even in the political world, there's a uniparty.

00:57:23.000 We clearly understand that now.

00:57:24.000 And that uniparty often acts in the antithesis of the interests of average Americans.

00:57:31.000 And you look at these things and you're like, there's something deeper happening here that's controlling you.

00:57:35.000 Because this is so different than anything we've ever seen before.

00:57:39.000 As a Christian, I'm sure you believe that the spiritual warfare aspect of it isn't new.

00:57:44.000 And that's always been the case throughout human history.

00:57:47.000 But why do you think it seems to be Getting more intense, more noticeable in our daily lives.

00:57:55.000 I think that's it.

00:57:56.000 It's that it's more blatant.

00:57:57.000 It's more out in the open.

00:57:58.000 And there was a time that it was.

00:57:58.000 Is it like an invitation for us to somehow participate?

00:58:02.000 My personal belief is yes.

00:58:04.000 My personal belief is that any time that you're confronted with evil, it's your duty to stand against it.

00:58:10.000 Right.

00:58:10.000 So is it Revelation?

00:58:12.000 Yep.

00:58:12.000 Revelation.

00:58:13.000 Yes, Revelation.

00:58:14.000 Yeah, Revelation.

00:58:14.000 End of Days.

00:58:15.000 Yep.

00:58:15.000 Is that what's going on?

00:58:16.000 A lot of people have different views in terms of where we're at in history.

00:58:19.000 I have no idea, but I will say that there is a very clear message communicated through the scriptures that as time goes on, things will become more blatant.

00:58:27.000 In fact, there's a scripture that talks about how in the last days, everything's going to be uprooted related to identity.

00:58:32.000 People will exchange truth for lies, and they'll listen to things that'll make their ears tickle and deny reality.

00:58:36.000 And so it's like, who knows?

00:58:38.000 But that seems like a lot more right.

00:58:39.000 But also it will come in like a thief in the night, therefore... Yeah, you really can't know the day or the hour.

00:58:46.000 Both of you are Christian.

00:58:48.000 So my question I suppose is, is it preferable that we are in the end of days and something is culminating as to your faith or would it be preferable that life was just simple and normal and you were farming corn with a smile on your face?

00:59:04.000 Great question.

00:59:05.000 I think you can have both.

00:59:07.000 Life is simple and you can have normalcy but also Not be excited for the end times, but have hope, you know?

00:59:18.000 And not be so prideful as to think you know what the timing is.

00:59:23.000 Because I think about this in a more secular context, but also a religious context, and I'm imagining, you know, are there people who are excited for revelation, for the end of days, for the second coming, for the rapture, whatever might be happening?

00:59:38.000 And if you separate the faith element from that, are there people who think, in reality, we could choose to be happy, live on a farm and have pigs and chickens and food, but many of these people Yeah, the good news.

00:59:53.000 the chaos and the violence because they believe at the end of that violence is the utopia.

00:59:58.000 Yeah, the good news.

00:59:59.000 There are a lot of people who, I think at least, who want to make things worse as quickly

01:00:05.000 and as intensely as possible so that it culminates in something.

01:00:11.000 And I don't know what that will be.

01:00:12.000 Accelerationism.

01:00:13.000 Yeah.

01:00:14.000 But I think, you know, the Bible's pretty clear about this.

01:00:16.000 Like, there's the Apostle Paul that says that we should pray for peaceful and quiet lives, and yet his also message, and it's not a contradictory one, but his tethered message is, and also prepare for what's coming.

01:00:26.000 Yes.

01:00:26.000 So there's this tethered reality of, like, pray for peace and quiet, and do whatever you can to make that happen.

01:00:33.000 Also, you need to be prepared, yes, because there will be a reality, the world is delving into chaos, and you want to be ready when that comes.

01:00:40.000 And so I think it's that dichotomy.

01:00:41.000 A very literal example of that is that every 20, 30, 40,000 years we get hit by comets and everything gets wiped to zero.

01:00:47.000 And like that's been happening over the last hundreds of thousands of years in the geological records of cometary impact.

01:00:51.000 So like, Yeah, you want to live in peace and love your neighbor.

01:00:54.000 What is the last record of that?

01:00:56.000 Well, I know 12,800 years ago at the end of the Younger Dryas, a comet shattered over North America and peppered the glacial continent, melted all the ice, and just caused a global flood, wiped out all the megafauna in North America, flattened the United States, which is why we have these planes.

01:01:10.000 Yeah, maybe that's the Great Flood.

01:01:12.000 Then no, it was a few thousand years later, there was another flood, which they think was Noah's Flood, like 6,000 years ago.

01:01:19.000 That mythology goes cross cultures.

01:01:22.000 Every culture has like a flood or something like that.

01:01:24.000 We have a great flood story.

01:01:25.000 But you are spot on.

01:01:26.000 Like there are these things that'll come that there's no ability to control.

01:01:30.000 And no matter how powerful the cabal or multiple cabals are, like even they will be taken off guard.

01:01:35.000 Yeah, I think when you were asking that question earlier about why does it seem like it's all coming to a head right now, this spiritual war, I find that it always is.

01:01:42.000 But now, because of the introduction of psychedelics into the mainstream and the proliferation of the knowledge through the internet, people are sensing it.

01:01:49.000 I can feel it.

01:01:50.000 I was like a logic.

01:01:51.000 If I can't see it and prove it, I don't believe it.

01:01:54.000 That was me until I was 23 years old.

01:01:55.000 Now, I feel energy.

01:01:57.000 I see patterns because of THC and the marijuana.

01:02:02.000 Psilocybin, just when you start to see the difference between life and non-life very starkly, and you start to practice Reiki and things like that, or Reiki, I'm not sure how to pronounce it.

01:02:12.000 Is that a good thing?

01:02:14.000 I think it's necessary to understand what's happening.

01:02:16.000 That may be true, Ian!

01:02:18.000 But I believe I have a story which is, which shows us a sign.

01:02:22.000 It is the end of times.

01:02:23.000 It is indeed, yes.

01:02:24.000 From the AP.

01:02:25.000 Ex-Ohio court mediator arrested.

01:02:28.000 Allegedly sent feces to GOP.

01:02:31.000 Please.

01:02:31.000 Okay, please explain.

01:02:32.000 Please don't do this.

01:02:33.000 Don't.

01:02:34.000 Richard Steinle, a 77-year-old from Mogador, Ohio, former Portage County Common Police Court mediator, charged with sending injurious articles as non-mailable, violating federal law that prohibits mailing certain things, including hazardous materials, according to court records.

01:02:54.000 It carries a maximum prison sentence of one year and a $100,000 fine.

01:02:58.000 People have lost their minds.

01:02:59.000 That's disgusting.

01:03:00.000 Now, I do think stuff like this probably happened all the time with people doing weird stuff.

01:03:03.000 There was also this video of some woman mailing her period, I guess, to, like, the Supreme Court.

01:03:08.000 Right, yeah, after Roe.

01:03:09.000 Now here's the funny thing.

01:03:10.000 She may have staged it. 1.00

01:03:12.000 Because she films a video and then it's like, it jump cuts around.

01:03:15.000 And she may be thinking like, I want to actually do it.

01:03:17.000 That's gross.

01:03:18.000 But by making that video, what she doesn't understand is that you'll still get charged.

01:03:21.000 Yeah.

01:03:22.000 There were people when they were- It's a bio weapon.

01:03:24.000 Well, it doesn't matter if you mailed it.

01:03:26.000 If you show yourself doing something that implies you did, they have to go in and check every mailbox.

01:03:33.000 And they have to like, so search for it.

01:03:36.000 there was that story of the woman who uh... lick the ice cream and put it back yeah and i was

01:03:41.000 like but she bought it right after as i can as a matter of fact you know no one

01:03:44.000 knows that it's obvious for looking at putting it back and i have to come

01:03:47.000 and throw all of the ice cream away cuz contaminated 1.00

01:03:50.000 so this guy we got a wrap to throw the entire g o p

01:03:53.000 They've all been contaminated.

01:03:57.000 It's a white pill.

01:03:58.000 You know what, I've heard about poop.

01:03:59.000 It's not the poop that's bad for you, it's the stuff that grows on the poop.

01:04:02.000 Oh gosh.

01:04:03.000 I'm not sure.

01:04:04.000 It all feels bad for me.

01:04:05.000 Putrefactive bacteria.

01:04:06.000 I don't want any of it thrown at me.

01:04:07.000 Putrescine and cadaverine.

01:04:09.000 Interesting molecules.

01:04:10.000 You know what is sad though?

01:04:11.000 What did they say the fine is in here?

01:04:13.000 $100,000?

01:04:13.000 Yeah.

01:04:14.000 Okay, what's sad is, like, knowing today's modern left, that will be covered in a GoFundMe show tonight.

01:04:20.000 Speaking of feces, I have received confirmation of the tilapia.

01:04:25.000 It says, tilapia in the wild feed on algae, but on farms they're reared on corn or soybean meal.

01:04:31.000 However, when no other feed is provided, they will eat poop.

01:04:35.000 There have been instances where fish farms in Asia were found to be feeding poultry, sheep, or hog manure to tilapia.

01:04:43.000 Oh no.

01:04:44.000 Wow.

01:04:45.000 Cool.

01:04:45.000 That apparently is true.

01:04:47.000 What is this? 0.74

01:04:47.000 That's disgusting. 0.74

01:04:48.000 McGill University, Tilapia and the Poop Connection. 0.85

01:04:51.000 Great.

01:04:52.000 Is that what you were reading?

01:04:53.000 Yeah. 0.98

01:04:54.000 That's so disgusting.

01:04:56.000 Thanks, Mary.

01:04:57.000 Unscrupulous operations, apparently.

01:04:59.000 Ooh, yeah.

01:05:00.000 Because on farms that ran on corn, however the no feed is provided, they will eat poop.

01:05:03.000 There have been instances where fish farms in Asia were found to be feeding poultry, sheep, or hog manure to tilapia.

01:05:09.000 Oh, gross.

01:05:10.000 What?

01:05:11.000 Do you guys know about gutter oil?

01:05:13.000 Oh no, yeah.

01:05:14.000 Wait, why is this vaguely familiar?

01:05:16.000 I think it was like a viral video a long time ago.

01:05:20.000 They, in China, they scoop out sewage and they filter the oils out and then cook with it on the street. 0.62

01:05:30.000 But because they're cooking it, does that mean it's not like infectious anymore?

01:05:35.000 Well, infectious isn't the issue.

01:05:37.000 The issue is, like, are you eating food?

01:05:39.000 Like, is the oil mineral oil, or, like, what oil is it?

01:05:43.000 They scoop things out of, like... What is it?

01:05:46.000 What is it?

01:05:47.000 Yeah, like, not all oil is food.

01:05:50.000 It's the oil that people ate before.

01:05:52.000 Maybe whether spiritual or not, this is like a sign of the end of days.

01:05:56.000 When we're at the point where we're recycling manure from animals to feed fish because we need food to sell.

01:06:03.000 Maybe it's like, you know... Rather than to feed soil.

01:06:06.000 We've gone too far!

01:06:07.000 It's time to turn back.

01:06:09.000 Go back to the good corn harvesting.

01:06:11.000 Yes!

01:06:12.000 Come on, Seiferts.

01:06:13.000 Let's go!

01:06:16.000 It's our time to shine.

01:06:18.000 But what's interesting is that the pro on this, the beautiful nature of the times that we're living in, is that people are waking up and in turn pursuing a lot of things that help them prepare for whatever days that we're in, also help them fight back, those that really feel convicted to stand up, like they have more resources than ever.

01:06:37.000 The good news is that we're in a time where, I'll give a perfectly relevant example to what we're doing.

01:06:43.000 On our platform, on PublicSquare, PublicSQ.com, if you want to check it out, there's a group called Front Yard Farms.

01:06:47.000 There's like a community group where all these people, and it's one of our most popular groups on the app right now, because it's all these users that are coming in together that want to learn how to grow their own food.

01:06:55.000 And it's grown by the thousands in the past few weeks.

01:06:57.000 And that's really neat, because what it shows to me is like, okay, there's really an ownership that individuals are taking over their own existence.

01:07:04.000 They are trying to prepare themselves for whatever is coming.

01:07:07.000 And worst case scenario, they'll need it.

01:07:10.000 They'll need to learn how to be completely self-sustaining because the world will go

01:07:13.000 so crazy in the United States.

01:07:14.000 The American experiment as we know it today does not exist in 20 years like what we're

01:07:19.000 seeing.

01:07:20.000 The best case scenario is now you know how to grow tomatoes in your backyard.

01:07:22.000 And good for you.

01:07:23.000 You took ownership of your own destiny and you actually provided for your family.

01:07:26.000 That's amazing.

01:07:27.000 And when you pull a tomato off the vine and bite into it.

01:07:29.000 Nothing better.

01:07:30.000 We had cherry tomatoes growing every morning.

01:07:32.000 I'd go out, I'd get fresh eggs from the chickens.

01:07:34.000 Cherry tomatoes and peppers and that was my breakfast.

01:07:37.000 Come on.

01:07:37.000 But we learned the hard way.

01:07:39.000 We planted all of our tomatoes at once.

01:07:41.000 Too many tomatoes.

01:07:42.000 We don't do.

01:07:43.000 Because then all of a sudden one day we had like 50 tomatoes and we couldn't eat them.

01:07:46.000 You're supposed to plant one, wait a week, plant one, wait a week.

01:07:49.000 Or can them, yeah.

01:07:50.000 Orcanum.

01:07:51.000 I don't think we're in the end days.

01:07:53.000 That phrase comes up sometimes.

01:07:54.000 But for every one of us, these are the final days because this is our life.

01:07:59.000 Totally.

01:08:00.000 There will always be an end to our life.

01:08:01.000 So every individual can talk about it as if this is the end because you only have this life.

01:08:05.000 But we mean kind of like the end of this era.

01:08:07.000 Yeah.

01:08:08.000 You know, I actually don't think we're in the end of time either.

01:08:10.000 My own personal views.

01:08:11.000 I think we're at the end of an era that the world has looked a certain way and it's about to change.

01:08:16.000 The end of the steam engine, industrial revolution.

01:08:18.000 I did hear this.

01:08:19.000 It may not be true, but this is the dawning of the age of Aquarius.

01:08:23.000 Oh, yeah.

01:08:24.000 2230, I think, is when that begins.

01:08:25.000 The dawning of the age of Aquarius.

01:08:27.000 That's right.

01:08:27.000 Interesting.

01:08:29.000 Let the sun shine in, you know?

01:08:30.000 We're gonna be tapping the vacuum for energy.

01:08:32.000 Dude, do you guys know about seed bombing?

01:08:34.000 You ever heard of seed bombing?

01:08:35.000 No.

01:08:35.000 They retrofit C-60 bomber planes.

01:08:37.000 Oh yeah.

01:08:38.000 And they pack them with seeds, like tree saplings, and they fly over like deforested areas and just drop hundreds, millions of seeds.

01:08:46.000 They don't plant nearly as well as doing them by hand, but they can drop Magnitudes more of them.

01:08:50.000 And they said they can plant like a billion trees per day.

01:08:53.000 Wow.

01:08:54.000 Levels of terraforming.

01:08:55.000 It's going to be funny when in like 30 years, they're like, we got to cut trees down.

01:08:57.000 They're just too many.

01:08:58.000 There's no more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

01:09:00.000 We're competing with us for the carbon.

01:09:01.000 We need the carbon.

01:09:02.000 Dude, we're going to be able to mine and burn carbon and then grow trees and do it on Mars.

01:09:07.000 Remember when they said to not use paper bags because it was bad for the forest and to use plastic?

01:09:12.000 When I was a kid, that was the big thing.

01:09:14.000 Yeah.

01:09:15.000 They were like, stop using paper bags.

01:09:17.000 They're tearing the forest down.

01:09:18.000 Use plastic.

01:09:20.000 Then they were like, stop using the plastic bags, start using the paper bags!

01:09:23.000 They're getting pollution everywhere!

01:09:24.000 And it's like, for every problem you think you're solving, you're making a new one.

01:09:28.000 Well, that's a great point, because San Diego actually was a national case study, which is where I live, San Diego.

01:09:34.000 A few years ago, they made plastic bags illegal, formally, at the city level in San Diego.

01:09:39.000 And what ended up happening is that the trash that homeless people would leave on the streets in San Diego got exponentially worse.

01:09:46.000 And not just trash, but also their own human fecal matter.

01:09:49.000 And we tried to figure out why. 0.67

01:09:50.000 Like why on earth is the trash just so exponentially greater than it was even six to nine months ago?

01:09:57.000 And they tied it back to that policy.

01:09:59.000 What used to happen is that homeless people would put their trash and their feces in these plastic bags and would throw it away.

01:10:04.000 But now you have the scenario where you took away their access to plastic bags and so the alternative is that we have trash and feces flooding the streets.

01:10:10.000 Wow.

01:10:11.000 And so you don't realize with foresight how these decisions are going to impact you 10 years down the road.

01:10:16.000 Solar panels is another perfect example.

01:10:18.000 You guys have Michael Schellenberger on.

01:10:19.000 Huge fan of Michael.

01:10:20.000 Read Apocalypse Never if you never have.

01:10:22.000 fantastic book. But Michael talks about this all the time.

01:10:24.000 They when they go and recycle these solar panels they go and

01:10:28.000 put them in impoverished communities in Africa and the land and then it pollutes water supplies like we don't 1.00

01:10:33.000 think about how the windmills will affect eagle populations. We

01:10:36.000 don't. So you think you're helping something and in turn you're actually causing a really detrimental effect. Yeah.

01:10:42.000 I was telling you while I've been working with this company that

01:10:44.000 pulls carbon dioxide out of the air and then converts it into

01:10:48.000 And the problem that can come out of that is that we start pulling too much carbon out of the air and then we start killing off all the plant life.

01:10:55.000 But thank God I thought of that now.

01:10:57.000 Hopefully, you know, we'll be able to mediate and make sure that that isn't a problem that is created from the mining.

01:11:04.000 I think it was funny.

01:11:05.000 We mentioned the other day when the wind turbine started leaking oil.

01:11:08.000 Yeah, and then everyone was like, huh?

01:11:11.000 What do you mean?

01:11:12.000 Yeah, it's like they thought they don't do that.

01:11:14.000 Yeah.

01:11:14.000 Yeah, they need oil.

01:11:15.000 We got a lubricated man Yeah, and not just to maintain them but to produce them in the first place.

01:11:19.000 This is this is this is the challenge with I Don't I don't I don't know how you solve our political issues.

01:11:25.000 We have a great government.

01:11:27.000 I mean not literally today I mean a system of government was devised by the founding father just quite brilliant, but has devolved into some chaotic nightmare And what happens is you get a politician who's like...

01:11:37.000 Doing stuff is hard.

01:11:39.000 Saying things is easy.

01:11:40.000 That's right.

01:11:41.000 And so they're like, we gotta, we gotta have green.

01:11:43.000 You know, green is better than brown or, or, or, or gray or whatever the cities are supposed to look like.

01:11:49.000 They want the green initiatives, not the machine initiatives.

01:11:52.000 And then what ends up happening is they say, we're gonna, we're gonna build wind turbines.

01:11:56.000 And everyone says, that sounds good.

01:11:58.000 And then it costs more to do.

01:11:59.000 The return is, is, is insufficient.

01:12:02.000 And then people think they're doing better, but they're just spending money.

01:12:05.000 Cars is a good example.

01:12:06.000 One theory going on right now is that the big push for electric vehicles is simply because they're trying to save the auto industry.

01:12:12.000 A huge portion of the U.S.

01:12:12.000 economy is based on cars.

01:12:14.000 People don't buy cars anymore.

01:12:15.000 There's too many!

01:12:16.000 There's so many cars and they're getting better and better and they last longer and people drive less.

01:12:19.000 Like, what do you do?

01:12:21.000 Electric vehicles.

01:12:22.000 Now we're gonna get rid of all the gas ones and go all electric.

01:12:26.000 That's convenient because it helps keep the gas for machinery and things like that, more industrial use cases.

01:12:34.000 But I think it's likely a big component is just make electric cars because now everybody's buying up all the electric cars and they're hard to come by and there's huge demand.

01:12:43.000 Economics, not environmentalism.

01:12:45.000 So maybe at the end of days, maybe, maybe.

01:12:50.000 Let's well, I was just going to say one more thing on that.

01:12:53.000 The, I think part of you asked a question in that.

01:12:55.000 And the question was, how do we fix the system when the system is so broken in

01:12:59.000 what seems like an irreparably, um, uh, almost like you just can't even, there's

01:13:05.000 And my big message to people all the time is go local first.

01:13:08.000 Start at the local level.

01:13:09.000 Like, I can't change my country until I change my state.

01:13:12.000 I can't change my state until I change my county.

01:13:14.000 I can't change my county until I change my city.

01:13:16.000 It all starts in my backyard.

01:13:17.000 Like, if we can actually stand up for the needs of a local community and get that down and get that on lock, okay, then we can start to focus on our state.

01:13:25.000 That's like what Public Square is, the app that you built.

01:13:27.000 Yes, the whole goal.

01:13:29.000 It's like Craigslist, but more like...

01:13:32.000 more vetted? Yeah, so it's essentially we started a platform to help connect freedom-loving Americans

01:13:37.000 with the community and companies that share their values.

01:13:39.000 So we've been really disheartened by woke corporatism. A big part of our system being broken is that

01:13:44.000 mega corporations have gone kind of into the progressive authoritarian world and partner with big

01:13:49.000 government in this effort to kind of stamp out the small business world and also the values that

01:13:54.000 still tens of millions of Americans hold dear, like individual liberties, freedom, prosperity.

01:13:59.000 And this has been evolving over the course of the last few years.

01:14:02.000 And then COVID blew it up because you had businesses all of a sudden literally bar you from employment or even patronizing their place of business unless you agreed with their set of values related to certain medical choices.

01:14:14.000 And so we started this app that basically helps people take local communities back through the power of localized commerce.

01:14:19.000 And so it's a social marketplace where users can connect for free with all the businesses that have agreed to a set of values to basically say, we're going to stand for the rights and principles that have made our country special in the first place.

01:14:30.000 Then they get discounts for going there in a lot of these businesses.

01:14:32.000 So you mentioned the seven principles.

01:14:34.000 You want to explain what those are?

01:14:35.000 Those sounded great.

01:14:35.000 Yeah, so when a business comes on, it's free for the business to join.

01:14:39.000 Right now we've got about 100 new businesses that are joining every single day, and they're loving the experience because it's a great advertising source for them for free.

01:14:45.000 So we don't charge businesses, we don't charge users, we make our money through advertising that we don't have to sell user data for, which is a big point.

01:14:52.000 In fact, if you go to our homepage, you'll see a transparency page at the bottom of this.

01:14:55.000 So if you scroll all the way down, you'll see a little transparency link at the bottom.

01:15:00.000 This actually has our core values, and then it also, if you scroll down even farther, has the kind of tenets of our platform that you know that you can trust as a user and as a business.

01:15:09.000 But when a business signs up, they agree with seven values that are essentially at a high level.

01:15:13.000 We believe the Constitution is worth protecting.

01:15:15.000 We believe in the rights of every individual in the public square, especially related to health things, so no mask or vaccine mandates.

01:15:21.000 If a business is on this app, it means that they will respect your personal choices in that world.

01:15:25.000 These businesses don't donate to any intersectional politics, meaning they're not going to... Yelp has a big problem.

01:15:30.000 Yelp last year came out and gave free advertising to black-owned businesses.

01:15:34.000 Wow.

01:15:34.000 At the expense of everyone else.

01:15:35.000 Isn't that, like, illegal?

01:15:37.000 It's a 1964 violation of the Civil Rights Act.

01:15:39.000 To a T. Would that be Title VII, I believe?

01:15:43.000 Racial discrimination.

01:15:44.000 Yeah, especially as it relates to even employment.

01:15:47.000 I mean that's happening in a big way right now.

01:15:48.000 So a business that's on the platform is not going to identify themselves by their skin color.

01:15:53.000 They're going to identify themselves by the quality of the products that they produce for their consumers.

01:15:57.000 Bringing this back to supporting the free market of small businesses to be able to operate with as little government intervention as possible, which is big in a state like California where it's impossible to start a small business.

01:16:07.000 People need to share this.

01:16:09.000 PublicSQ.com because If, you know, we often talk about don't give your money to people who hate you.

01:16:15.000 You know, Jeremy's Razor said that funny line, stop giving money to people that hate you, give it to me instead.

01:16:20.000 But how do you find more people like, you know, Jeremy Boring or The Daily Wire?

01:16:29.000 Like this.

01:16:30.000 So if you live in an era and you're like, I don't know what to do.

01:16:32.000 Well, here's one way to look up.

01:16:33.000 And if at the end of the day, you are avoiding woke businesses and only going to people who, you know, share your values, then you are shifting a massive portion of the economy and power into Better values.

01:16:47.000 You're spot on.

01:16:48.000 And this shirt is a great example.

01:16:50.000 I'm wearing a shirt called Rowan.

01:16:51.000 ForRowan.com.

01:16:52.000 It's amazing.

01:16:53.000 They didn't pay me to say this.

01:16:53.000 They're not even a paid advertiser.

01:16:55.000 But ForRowan.com.

01:16:56.000 They're on the app with a free profile.

01:16:58.000 This shirt, they source their products sustainably.

01:17:02.000 They're an amazing company run by a guy that holds these values to his core convictions.

01:17:08.000 It's his worldview to a tee.

01:17:11.000 1% of all the proceeds that they make off of their clothing go to fatherhood.

01:17:15.000 So there's this national fatherhood initiative that helps to provide father figures for communities where kids didn't have them.

01:17:21.000 It's like, these are the companies that I want to support with my dollars, not things that are donating to BLM with their corporate profits.

01:17:26.000 And what's neat is that, you know, we have 15,000 businesses on the platform.

01:17:30.000 We're the largest network of these patriotic businesses in the country.

01:17:33.000 And the largest industries are restaurants, retail, clothing and jewelry.

01:17:38.000 It's small businesses that make our country special.

01:17:39.000 Because not only is there like a Yeah, let's be anti-woke.

01:17:42.000 But there's also like, let's just support small businesses in general because they've been so hosed by what's happened over the past few years.

01:17:49.000 The fact that Amazon gained in value over the last two years, while small businesses are now in a situation where 70% of them in the United States may not be able to stay open after this fall because of how hard they've been hit.

01:18:00.000 Like that to me is one of the greatest crimes against humanity I've ever witnessed.

01:18:03.000 What about a company that's in a jurisdiction that mandates things?

01:18:06.000 that share our core convictions so that we're not funding companies that hate us.

01:18:09.000 We're also trying to help just small business in general because there's a need for it now

01:18:12.000 today more than ever.

01:18:14.000 What about a company that's in a jurisdiction that mandates things?

01:18:17.000 These businesses stand against it.

01:18:18.000 In fact, we've paid the legal fees of businesses.

01:18:20.000 So they'll reject?

01:18:21.000 They won't.

01:18:22.000 Yep.

01:18:23.000 Unconstitutional.

01:18:23.000 You're from Chicago, originally?

01:18:25.000 Yeah.

01:18:25.000 Yeah, NeNe's Deli.

01:18:26.000 Great deli.

01:18:26.000 Highly recommend if you're in the Chicago area.

01:18:28.000 They're one of our promoted partners.

01:18:29.000 They're amazing on the app.

01:18:31.000 And they stood against the mandates in Chicago, which was nearly impossible.

01:18:35.000 They refused.

01:18:35.000 They said the rights of our consumers are too important.

01:18:37.000 We're not going to infringe upon them.

01:18:39.000 And they got fined.

01:18:40.000 But we put together a group that went and paid off their legal funds and said, keep fighting the fight.

01:18:43.000 Don't back down.

01:18:44.000 You mentioned that you want to open source the code at some point.

01:18:48.000 What's your timetable for that?

01:18:49.000 Great question.

01:18:51.000 The desire would be in the next 12 months, but it's really hit or miss.

01:18:55.000 It relies upon a few features getting done and us getting more algorithmic based where there's anything that you'd want to be able to use in different environments.

01:19:01.000 So that's a great question.

01:19:03.000 Like I could see like an Airbnb, all the people that are Airbnb-ing their houses also using an app like this, but not your app because it would set up, it would create new, maybe new liabilities for you if you get into those markets.

01:19:16.000 But that if someone else spun up like a like a public square v2 or like you know whatever you want to call it with that code and then you'd have like a B and you'd have like a like would you do you have rentals like Airbnb stuff on there?

01:19:28.000 Yeah we have housing rentals so a lot of people have said hey I wasn't a huge fan of how Airbnb came out and contributed dollars to employees getting abortions across state lines because that was a big initiative that Airbnb pulled about two weeks ago.

01:19:41.000 And so we had a lot of rentals on the on the app that said, hey, we're here.

01:19:44.000 Don't forget about us.

01:19:45.000 We're not with Airbnb.

01:19:46.000 Come join us and we'll gladly rent your house.

01:19:48.000 So there's absolutely there's an incredible market for also like local bartering.

01:19:52.000 So people that have just a single product that they're trying to sell in a local region.

01:19:56.000 That's great for them, too.

01:19:57.000 If you're in an area that's super rural and there's not a ton of traffic, we just launched this nationwide six weeks ago.

01:20:02.000 So we're we're we're enjoying it and diving right in.

01:20:05.000 But it's been amazing.

01:20:06.000 The response thus far, one of the greatest Challenges is how do you how do you make this critical mass enough for people in hyper local?

01:20:14.000 Communities that are way out in the middle of nowhere part of the way that we do that is also offering an online Marketplace you can also shop your values in the online setting and can spend money with the businesses there that are Agreeing with these seven guys, but they'll serve you wherever you're at in the country And so but you're right in terms of how this can have cross-functional applicability into other environments the sky's the limit Um, is it the kind of thing where I can order, like, food from the restaurant through your app?

01:20:38.000 Not yet.

01:20:38.000 You'll be able to.

01:20:39.000 That's awesome.

01:20:40.000 Yeah, essentially it's a directory at the moment, um, with a social component.

01:20:43.000 But it will absolutely.

01:20:44.000 I mean, you should see where we're going.

01:20:45.000 This fall, we're starting to get more into e-commerce.

01:20:47.000 You can actually purchase right there and have it shipped to your house from within the app itself.

01:20:51.000 Right now we essentially act as a directory to get you to the businesses where then you conduct and That's awesome.

01:20:55.000 shopping experience and a lot of these companies will give you a discount code

01:20:58.000 for shopping there. That's the neat thing too is that me as a free user I get a

01:21:01.000 free cup of coffee every week from a Publix for a coffee shop. So it's really neat.

01:21:05.000 I just signed up and I'm looking at the local area and there's a ton of stuff.

01:21:08.000 Oh awesome. I just signed up too. There's a barbecue place in, well I won't say the city, but there's a barbecue place

01:21:14.000 near here.

01:21:14.000 Oh cool. Run by great people.

01:21:15.000 Highly recommend.

01:21:16.000 Check it out.

01:21:17.000 What's the name of it?

01:21:17.000 Do you have the name of it?

01:21:19.000 I'll say after the show.

01:21:19.000 I don't know if you guys are sensitive about where you're at.

01:21:22.000 It's very close.

01:21:22.000 There's a lot of businesses in here.

01:21:24.000 Really?

01:21:25.000 In the local?

01:21:27.000 That's great.

01:21:28.000 Check online.

01:21:29.000 That's great news because we're in a pretty rural area.

01:21:33.000 When I look on the map and it shows all the little squares.

01:21:37.000 All those businesses have agreed with us.

01:21:38.000 That's amazing.

01:21:40.000 Is there ride sharing?

01:21:41.000 Uh, not yet, but that's something we're super excited about.

01:21:44.000 That's hot.

01:21:44.000 Yeah, we can't wait to it.

01:21:45.000 Because it's super easy to do, the technology's there.

01:21:48.000 Yeah, ride sharing's big, bartering's huge for us.

01:21:51.000 A lot of these, like, moving into the Craigslist, the Angie's World, or Angie's List market becomes more of a reality in the near future.

01:21:58.000 We're excited about what's coming.

01:21:59.000 What's Angie's List?

01:22:00.000 T-Dog's Barbecue.

01:22:01.000 Yes.

01:22:01.000 In Charlestown.

01:22:02.000 Oh, is that the place you were talking about?

01:22:04.000 Yes.

01:22:04.000 Yeah, they're on there.

01:22:05.000 Yeah, there's another cafe that's there I went to today.

01:22:07.000 Pretty cool.

01:22:07.000 That's awesome.

01:22:08.000 Everyone, you gotta understand.

01:22:10.000 This is MAGA country. 0.61

01:22:11.000 Good point.

01:22:13.000 Jesse Smollett would agree.

01:22:15.000 But you guys would be amazed.

01:22:17.000 I mean, the reality is... The job board, do you want this to compete with LinkedIn or something like that?

01:22:22.000 Great question.

01:22:23.000 Yeah, so that came about really as a sort of a fluke.

01:22:26.000 We had a lot of businesses during around the time that the vaccine mandates were coming out.

01:22:31.000 We had a lot of businesses like, hey, I'm hiring and I won't infringe upon people's rights.

01:22:34.000 Can you just put that somewhere?

01:22:35.000 And we've had a lot of people get hired through it.

01:22:37.000 And we've got an amazing partner in the job board space called Red Balloon that's helping do kind of what we're doing, but in the jobs market more exclusively.

01:22:45.000 That's really exciting.

01:22:46.000 Andrew, their CEO, is a good friend of mine.

01:22:48.000 And so we're partnering together on a lot of our technology.

01:22:50.000 So two things here.

01:22:51.000 First of all, I remember I tried to download your app earlier before it was rolled out.

01:22:55.000 I was very disappointed that it was available everywhere.

01:22:58.000 I'm very glad it's available now.

01:22:59.000 The other thing is that Red Balloon I looked at and they appeared to be defunct, which was very disheartening.

01:23:04.000 So do you know if they're expanding as well?

01:23:06.000 They are definitely expanding.

01:23:07.000 Yes.

01:23:08.000 And then what is the biggest roadblock you foresee for your company?

01:23:12.000 It's a great question.

01:23:14.000 The biggest roadblock is just, to be honest, we've got a lean budget and a lot of interest, which is great news.

01:23:21.000 It's great that we're the largest entity in this space.

01:23:23.000 And praise God, we've had a lot of success thus far.

01:23:26.000 And that's solely because these businesses have taken a stand and we're grateful for it.

01:23:29.000 So exciting.

01:23:30.000 But like that also creates a lot of challenges because now we're building

01:23:33.000 the plane and flight.

01:23:33.000 And so anytime you're building the plane and flight, there are just challenges

01:23:36.000 with the things staying together and holding fast.

01:23:39.000 But if you go to like a city like Chicago, you'll be amazed at the amount of

01:23:42.000 businesses.

01:23:42.000 We have a thousand businesses in Chicago.

01:23:44.000 Like Tim, if you're up there and you search that current location bar, um, uh,

01:23:49.000 no X out there.

01:23:52.000 Go back.

01:23:52.000 Okay, hit the current location bar.

01:23:53.000 See the current location right above you?

01:23:55.000 The little red bar?

01:23:56.000 What?

01:23:56.000 I'm not going to press that.

01:23:58.000 Oh, okay.

01:23:58.000 Oh, no, no, no.

01:23:59.000 That won't show your current location.

01:24:00.000 It's going to be a search bar.

01:24:02.000 See, this is one of the things we're changing.

01:24:04.000 Oh, okay, yeah.

01:24:06.000 If you go to that current location bar and you search, you don't have to do it now, but if you search Chicago there instead of your current location, I just want to show you an example of a largely blue city that has just blown up.

01:24:16.000 Chicago, Atlanta, Phoenix, San Francisco has done pretty well.

01:24:20.000 New York City is awesome.

01:24:21.000 This is so great.

01:24:22.000 Yeah, if you scroll over to Chicago.

01:24:23.000 Oh, hey Detroit.

01:24:25.000 What's up?

01:24:25.000 Hey, yeah.

01:24:26.000 If you scroll over to Chicago and then you hit search this area, just so you can see what a city looks like when it really blows up.

01:24:32.000 I'm gonna go check out my neighborhood.

01:24:33.000 I love Chicago.

01:24:34.000 Let's see how we're looking.

01:24:36.000 So scroll up.

01:24:38.000 Okay, now hit search this area.

01:24:40.000 Let's see.

01:24:40.000 That's great.

01:24:42.000 My gosh, look at that.

01:24:43.000 And these are just local ones.

01:24:44.000 So these don't count all the online that service this area.

01:24:47.000 This is so cool.

01:24:48.000 Yeah, it's really neat.

01:24:49.000 Wow.

01:24:49.000 Seems like a great way to help people feel like they're not alone.

01:24:52.000 That's the whole goal.

01:24:53.000 Are you looking for investment at this stage?

01:24:55.000 So we've taken just angel investment.

01:24:57.000 We're staying away from all venture stuff.

01:24:59.000 It robs you of a lot.

01:25:01.000 This is amazing.

01:25:02.000 Thanks, dude.

01:25:03.000 So I'm in my old neighborhood in Chicago.

01:25:05.000 Where are you at?

01:25:05.000 Oh, you're right by Midway.

01:25:07.000 And so the fact that you can find businesses that share your values in a place as blue and insane as the south side of Chicago is... It really indicates that the blue and red thing is kind of a visage.

01:25:20.000 It is.

01:25:20.000 People are people.

01:25:22.000 I mean, bro, I'm going to use this and go to these businesses.

01:25:25.000 You should, bro.

01:25:26.000 I don't want to give money to people who hate me.

01:25:28.000 Amen.

01:25:28.000 That's why we exist.

01:25:30.000 And the deeper emotional connection is, I feel not alone.

01:25:34.000 It'll almost make me tear up when I talk about it.

01:25:36.000 We had a lady reach out. 1.00

01:25:38.000 We'd only been launched a month and she said, we soft launched in San Diego, and she reached out and she said, I feel like I have 6,000 new best friends in my neighborhood.

01:25:46.000 That was really, really cool because it was like, It's amazing to be able to shop your values, stop spending money from companies that hate you, go for all of your life's purchases and feel good about your purchases.

01:25:56.000 It's a whole other thing when you can feel like, I'm not alone anymore.

01:26:00.000 That's awesome.

01:26:00.000 When I look at an area in the South Burbs of Chicago and you see a cluster, you know these people are all friends.

01:26:06.000 They told each other honestly who they are.

01:26:08.000 They're probably getting customers.

01:26:10.000 And part of the way we grow is through an ambassador program.

01:26:12.000 So like we have an amazing Chicago ambassador.

01:26:15.000 And so the Chicago ambassador goes out and refers all these businesses to the platform, recommends them to the platform.

01:26:19.000 It's really neat.

01:26:20.000 And so that's part of the way we grow.

01:26:22.000 It's very grassroots.

01:26:23.000 We have a team of activists around the country.

01:26:24.000 Literally a parallel economy.

01:26:26.000 That's the whole goal.

01:26:27.000 How do you vet the companies?

01:26:28.000 Like if someone did do vax mandates, how would you vet that?

01:26:31.000 So we've had two instances since we launched at all, even including our soft launch back last October.

01:26:38.000 We had two instances where a user reached out and was like, hey, I think this business may have been with you at a time but no longer is.

01:26:44.000 They just let us know and we kept moving on.

01:26:46.000 So we pulled them off and off we go.

01:26:49.000 Yeah, we're committed to the rights of our consumers, though.

01:26:51.000 And so if if a business is on there and they got to be with us, and it's not it's not a tribalistic thing.

01:26:56.000 It's just that there's there's a constitution in place for a reason.

01:26:59.000 We want these businesses to respect that.

01:27:01.000 And and consumers deserve to know that I'm not going to go.

01:27:05.000 I remember how embarrassing it was like COVID.

01:27:07.000 I walked into a coffee shop and got told to leave right away because I wasn't wearing a mask like that's embarrassing.

01:27:11.000 There are a lot of people in there.

01:27:13.000 The last thing we'd ever want to have happen is a consumer feels that way.

01:27:15.000 And so that's why we really do hold fast to these values.

01:27:18.000 So how do you kind of, not enforce, but encourage people to adhere to these rules?

01:27:23.000 Because you're right, these are great principles, but how do you make sure that they're following through even like one year, two years, five years later?

01:27:28.000 For sure.

01:27:29.000 Great question.

01:27:29.000 We ask for consumer feedback on every interaction.

01:27:32.000 That's a really helpful way.

01:27:33.000 So if a user shops somewhere, we ask them to let us know how their experience was.

01:27:38.000 And you know, again, 99.99999% of those interactions are incredibly positive.

01:27:42.000 We learn new stories through it.

01:27:44.000 That's so great.

01:27:45.000 But it's everything, too.

01:27:46.000 It's random industries.

01:27:48.000 We had an office supplier from Alabama join last week.

01:27:52.000 He heard me on this TV show, and he said, hey, I just want to let you know.

01:27:56.000 He called me because I hadn't talked to him in eight years, but I know this guy personally.

01:27:59.000 He didn't know what I was doing now.

01:28:00.000 He calls me and said, I just want to let you know, within 24 hours of being on the platform, I had an office in Ohio call me for supplies from Alabama, and they're my new client.

01:28:08.000 And they're one of our largest clients.

01:28:10.000 So it's really neat to see even the way businesses are now supporting businesses.

01:28:14.000 And that's cool.

01:28:15.000 The B2B side of this is limitless too.

01:28:17.000 So we're excited to get into that a little bit more.

01:28:18.000 You said earlier you had some ad revenue is how the company makes money right now,

01:28:22.000 but you don't track any data?

01:28:25.000 Yeah, we don't sell any user data, and any data we track is purely analytical and it's not based to a user.

01:28:30.000 So it's basically, we can tell a business, you got 8,000 impressions this month, but we can't tell you demographics, who did it, the gender, any of that.

01:28:38.000 We don't even ask users that.

01:28:40.000 I guess it wouldn't be untargeted ads, the ads are targeted at people that like the business of They're targeted to the entire platform.

01:28:46.000 We don't have any ability to target other than your region.

01:28:48.000 So we can tell you Chicago, you get an ad that runs in Chicago, but we can't tell you to what demographics or what 20 miles.

01:28:55.000 But if someone browses a lot of restaurants, do they get restaurant ads?

01:28:59.000 No, not yet.

01:29:00.000 No.

01:29:01.000 And even when that comes in, it'll be user preference driven.

01:29:03.000 It won't be a hidden algorithm.

01:29:05.000 So what'll happen in the near future, in the beauty of building the plane in flight, what'll happen in the near future is that when a user signs on, they'll actually tell us what they're most interested in.

01:29:14.000 So I really like restaurants.

01:29:15.000 I really like coffee shops.

01:29:16.000 I really like clothing companies.

01:29:18.000 I really like graphene.

01:29:20.000 And then what'll happen is that what you'll see will be most catered to what you told us, but you can change that at any time.

01:29:25.000 Other categories?

01:29:25.000 Can I say, like, show me restaurants?

01:29:26.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:29:27.000 Oh, wow.

01:29:28.000 Yes, if you scroll down.

01:29:28.000 I'm totally doing this, like, tomorrow for dinner or something.

01:29:30.000 So if you scroll down, you'll see categories.

01:29:35.000 So you get into all categories.

01:29:36.000 So that's in Chicago in that little region.

01:29:38.000 If you go to shop online, you'll see like there's a whole list of categories if you scroll down.

01:29:45.000 You'll see all these different ones.

01:29:46.000 So yeah, if you want jewelry, if you want clothing, you want retail, you want tech services.

01:29:50.000 You have made it very easy to stop giving money to people who hate us.

01:29:53.000 That is music to my ears.

01:29:55.000 That's great news.

01:29:56.000 I'm very glad to hear that.

01:29:57.000 It's not just about not giving money to people who hate you, it's about giving money to people who like you.

01:30:01.000 Yes, big time.

01:30:02.000 That is what it's about.

01:30:03.000 And it's impressive you did it with a small team.

01:30:05.000 Thank you.

01:30:06.000 Like you said, it was just a couple of you started it off?

01:30:09.000 Yeah, we're now at about 24 people on our headcount.

01:30:11.000 Oh, that's impressive.

01:30:12.000 Thank you, thank you.

01:30:13.000 It's been a lot, but it's been incredible.

01:30:15.000 That's in like a year.

01:30:16.000 Was that in a year you went from two to 24 people?

01:30:17.000 Yeah, we wrote our first line of code 13 months ago.

01:30:19.000 That's so neat.

01:30:20.000 Wow.

01:30:20.000 Did you just get struck with the idea?

01:30:22.000 Yeah, we needed it.

01:30:24.000 You know, I have a lot of respect for business owners that start entrepreneurial ventures because they see a hole in the market.

01:30:28.000 There's a whole other level of fulfillment when it's something you personally have felt.

01:30:32.000 And my wife and I, we felt the COVID thing hard.

01:30:36.000 I mean, we just felt so disheartened by what was happening.

01:30:38.000 We made a list of all the businesses in our local region on a piece of paper that we knew we could support because we knew the owners, we knew they would stand with us.

01:30:44.000 So it came out of a lot of personal experiences, the desire to feel connected to people and not alone.

01:30:49.000 Because you can feel that way, especially in California.

01:30:52.000 What about businesses that might be services with no physical location?

01:30:56.000 Yep, those are on there too.

01:30:57.000 Plumbers, electricians, financial advisors.

01:31:00.000 We got it all.

01:31:00.000 Would that pop up on the map or what?

01:31:02.000 They'll pop up on the map if they have at least like a focal point that they like to service.

01:31:07.000 But then they'll also pop up in the category list without maybe necessarily a physical pin on the map if they have a surface area but no physical location.

01:31:14.000 Yeah, it's really neat.

01:31:16.000 Wow.

01:31:16.000 That's so cool.

01:31:17.000 Is there like a woke version of this?

01:31:19.000 They have that, don't they?

01:31:19.000 Yelp.

01:31:20.000 All of them, yeah.

01:31:22.000 Next door, yelp, all of them.

01:31:25.000 Wow.

01:31:26.000 But you're right, though.

01:31:26.000 It is, for us, like, we get asked all the time, why won't you create this big blacklist and tell me all the companies I should hate?

01:31:32.000 And it's like, because that's, that's evident.

01:31:33.000 That's out there.

01:31:34.000 Like, we'd much rather focus on the positive.

01:31:36.000 Here's where you should go.

01:31:37.000 Like, it does me no good to tell you, I mean, it does you some good.

01:31:40.000 Knowledge is power.

01:31:41.000 But like, you know Chase and Bank of America don't like you.

01:31:44.000 What I would rather do is tell you about Axis, which is like an incredible, freedom-loving bank that holds fast to the Constitution, and they'll serve you anywhere around the country.

01:31:50.000 I'm not a big fan of the don't give money to people that hate you because I don't think they hate you.

01:31:54.000 They just don't care about you.

01:31:55.000 A X O S. 1.00

01:31:56.000 Clothing companies like Ferro and I'd rather tell you about this because it's hopeful.

01:31:59.000 It gives you hope in the country.

01:32:00.000 I'm not a big fan of the don't give money to people that hate you because I don't think

01:32:04.000 they hate you.

01:32:05.000 They just don't care about you.

01:32:06.000 I'd rather give money to people that like you.

01:32:09.000 Yes and support your ideals.

01:32:10.000 Yep, exactly.

01:32:11.000 That's why we exist.

01:32:12.000 I'd rather give more money to somebody, you know, serving food who was cool and was nice and supported what I supported as opposed to literally anybody else.

01:32:22.000 It's what Ian said, I think.

01:32:24.000 There are a lot of business owners who, if they knew your political leanings, would, like, kick you out of their businesses.

01:32:32.000 There are ideologues out there, and when I walk into a business that has, like, BLM flags and, like, the newest updated LGBT flags everywhere, all over the walls, more than their own branding, I do think that it's meant to deter anyone who's not woke from entering the business and supporting it. 0.73

01:32:54.000 Yeah, there might be something to that.

01:32:55.000 Yeah, and on our vacation, it was terribly sad, because I had somebody say to us, if I had known that you weren't vaccinated, I wouldn't have invited you.

01:33:02.000 And I was, like, crushed.

01:33:03.000 I was like, this is so sad.

01:33:05.000 It's horrible.

01:33:05.000 They're locked in a weird mind state, man.

01:33:08.000 And that's what Tim talks about the cult.

01:33:10.000 And I wanted to say, in October of last year, we were talking to this big crowd of people we had at our little event, and I was like, you know what?

01:33:15.000 You guys should feel, like, great about this, because this Tells you that you're not alone.

01:33:20.000 This is something really impactful.

01:33:21.000 And I feel like this app is the perfect representation of that.

01:33:24.000 Thank you.

01:33:24.000 So exciting.

01:33:25.000 Thank you.

01:33:25.000 That means a lot.

01:33:26.000 Yeah.

01:33:26.000 I'm stoked.

01:33:26.000 That's why we do what we do.

01:33:27.000 I love it.

01:33:28.000 Do you have venues on here?

01:33:29.000 Oh yeah.

01:33:30.000 We have a really cool art collective venue that just joined from San Diego.

01:33:33.000 Highly recommend.

01:33:34.000 I can't even remember their name, but if you look in venues in San Diego.

01:33:37.000 We have a music venue in Indiana that just joined.

01:33:39.000 Like really cool.

01:33:41.000 Yeah, it's awesome.

01:33:42.000 Yeah, because that was a big thing.

01:33:43.000 During COVID, there was a big vaccination push for music venues and some bands required it, not even because of their personal convictions, but because the venue required it.

01:33:53.000 And so we wanted to kind of counteract that as well.

01:33:55.000 Those venues also need to let some comedians know who's allowed.

01:33:59.000 Yeah, yeah, for sure.

01:34:01.000 Big time.

01:34:02.000 We're gonna go to Super Chats!

01:34:03.000 If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show if you really do like it, and become a member at TimCast.com.

01:34:10.000 We're gonna have that members-only show coming up for you at 11 p.m., but let's read.

01:34:13.000 I'm gonna have to keep this one short from Eric.

01:34:16.000 Just read the beginning.

01:34:16.000 He says, Tim, you're right about the Civil War, and he says he hopes people prepare for what's coming.

01:34:21.000 Yes, yes.

01:34:22.000 I often tell people just preparation is Being sustainable.

01:34:27.000 Figuring out what you need to survive and not relying on a machine or a system because you don't know what's going to happen.

01:34:32.000 That's all I can really say.

01:34:33.000 I don't know what else preparation would really mean because no one knows what will happen.

01:34:38.000 We may be in an era of purely fifth generational warfare.

01:34:41.000 It's all psychological operations and that's it.

01:34:44.000 But we may end up seeing something like supply chain disruption.

01:34:47.000 So preparation just literally means, do you know where your dinner is coming from?

01:34:51.000 Download on your phones a survival guide, not because the world is ending, but because some days you might find yourself lost in the woods.

01:34:59.000 Yeah.

01:35:00.000 That's it.

01:35:01.000 You might want to learn how to start a fire or something if you're gonna have a campfire with your friends.

01:35:03.000 Might not have coverage.

01:35:05.000 I just got notified that the app Public Square might actually be overloaded right now.

01:35:08.000 People aren't able to sign in.

01:35:10.000 They get to the phone number part and then it kicks them back.

01:35:13.000 Yep, they can skip the phone number part if you'd like to.

01:35:15.000 There's a skip for now.

01:35:16.000 That can sometimes help.

01:35:17.000 I figured that this would probably be a large traffic spike.

01:35:21.000 We give it a minute.

01:35:22.000 All devs on high alert.

01:35:23.000 Yes, all devs are on alert.

01:35:24.000 They're handling it.

01:35:25.000 We've got an amazing team.

01:35:26.000 I wish I knew about this sooner.

01:35:28.000 Legit, when we go out on the weekends and stuff, I'm only using these businesses.

01:35:34.000 I gotta say it was awesome to go to Chicago and look at my neighborhood

01:35:36.000 and see that there are businesses there.

01:35:38.000 And it's like very few, you know, surprisingly.

01:35:41.000 And there's a lot there, you can see on the map, but not as many as you'd hope for.

01:35:45.000 I mean, but it's Chicago, what do you expect?

01:35:46.000 Well, and we just launched.

01:35:47.000 I mean, again, we've only been nationwide for six weeks.

01:35:50.000 So part of that is like, it's such, once communities find out about it

01:35:55.000 and then the businesses start telling their friends, like that's what's led to blossoming growth.

01:35:58.000 This is so great.

01:35:59.000 Thanks, guys.

01:36:00.000 I had friends who worked at places that got fake ratings on Yelp and things like that.

01:36:06.000 I knew a guy who ran a burger joint, and he said that he would get these fake reviews on Yelp, and then all of the good reviews would be held as spam, and all the bad reviews would rise.

01:36:16.000 And then you'd get a phone call being like, hey, why don't you advertise with us?

01:36:20.000 And he'd be like, no, and then it would get worse.

01:36:21.000 They'd be like, we can give you special editing access.

01:36:24.000 I don't know if that's true, I just know that's what a guy told me.

01:36:27.000 It's real.

01:36:28.000 That's crazy.

01:36:29.000 And they'll help some businesses alleviate bad reviews and they won't others based upon

01:36:32.000 their political views.

01:36:34.000 That's shady.

01:36:35.000 Yeah.

01:36:36.000 So like a lot of the businesses that have taken stances for anything remotely right

01:36:38.000 of center, if they get a negative review from someone in New York that's clearly never been

01:36:43.000 to their business in Phoenix, Yelp won't help you.

01:36:46.000 Even if you're a paying client, and you have to pay a lot to Yelp to really be shown anywhere,

01:36:50.000 like in any serious degree, like starting at 300 bucks.

01:36:52.000 I mean Yelp's an expensive platform for an advertiser.

01:36:55.000 And so you have these advertisers that feel part of the community and yet they get completely

01:36:59.000 I feel like you guys should have a receipt in order to leave a review.

01:37:03.000 I think that's a good idea.

01:37:04.000 That's a great idea.

01:37:05.000 Yeah, you can scan it.

01:37:06.000 Alright.

01:37:07.000 Or maybe the receipt can go through the app.

01:37:10.000 You know what you should do.

01:37:12.000 Ready.

01:37:12.000 I'm all ideas.

01:37:13.000 Selene Hope says, I think a two-year mandatory military service would solve a lot of America's problems.

01:37:18.000 integrate that so you know you go to the store and they have the thing the tablet

01:37:21.000 and they spin it around and you tap and then you slide it back yep the receipt

01:37:24.000 stays within the app boom there you go man love it all right

01:37:28.000 Selene Hope says I think a two-year mandatory military service would solve a

01:37:32.000 lot of America's problems it would correct bad parenting lack of discipline

01:37:35.000 and addiction I don't disagree about But I also agree that it would create a ton of new problems.

01:37:41.000 And I'm not sure I would agree with conscription.

01:37:43.000 Yeah, I like the idea of people getting discipline.

01:37:47.000 I don't know if I like the idea of how I don't, I don't think it'd be implemented.

01:37:52.000 What about military school?

01:37:55.000 People should have to serve two years of military school.

01:37:58.000 I don't know.

01:37:59.000 I mean, I wish that I'd learned military tactics at the age of 17.

01:38:02.000 You know, I love military tactics, and I don't know why, but I love them.

01:38:06.000 They're interesting.

01:38:07.000 Well, then the question becomes who is teaching those tactics, and it would probably be the state if you're going to give it to the military.

01:38:12.000 Wow, and if the military is teaching the military schools what they're teaching the military currently, I would not let my kids go.

01:38:20.000 Yeah.

01:38:21.000 Triton 54 says, tomorrow's headline, AG Merrick Garland orders the arrest of conservative protesters outside Judge Reinhardt's home.

01:38:29.000 Except for the ones screaming to go do some crazy stuff.

01:38:33.000 No, basically the point is they wouldn't do it to the Supreme Court justices.

01:38:36.000 They wouldn't arrest people outside their homes.

01:38:38.000 Right.

01:38:39.000 Yeah.

01:38:41.000 All right.

01:38:44.000 Augusto Mimochet says, The House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded that JFK was a conspiracy, and the next day all the evidence used in the committee was stolen from CIA storage.

01:38:56.000 That's crazy!

01:38:57.000 Is that true or not?

01:39:00.000 I don't know.

01:39:00.000 Interesting if true.

01:39:01.000 It was definitely a conspiracy, we just don't know who conspired.

01:39:06.000 All right.

01:39:07.000 Alex Maggiore says, I only know that Dan Bongino is the guy that posts that Biden is the worst president in U.S.

01:39:13.000 history every day on Twitter.

01:39:15.000 Maybe you can have him on IRL.

01:39:17.000 I'm already a subscriber to Timcast, but maybe people should know him.

01:39:20.000 He's a cool dude.

01:39:21.000 People do know him.

01:39:22.000 He's huge.

01:39:23.000 He's been really helpful to us, too.

01:39:24.000 What's that?

01:39:25.000 Bongino's been really helpful to us.

01:39:26.000 He's promoted us a lot in the last month.

01:39:28.000 Very grateful for it.

01:39:29.000 I have to say, I used to think he was crazy, and I do not anymore.

01:39:31.000 Did you hear his rant last night on the news after this broke about the FBI raiding Trump's place?

01:39:37.000 What'd he say?

01:39:38.000 He called it some third-world BS and just went off about how our country is a banana republic.

01:39:43.000 I mean, yeah, you have the current president's son that's doing what he's doing, and yet the opposition leader is being raided.

01:39:49.000 It's like, that's the most clear, evident form of banana republics that you can possibly dream up. 0.99

01:39:53.000 I gotta look that up.

01:39:55.000 Yep, Dan was going off.

01:39:57.000 Alright, let's grab some superchats.

01:40:01.000 David C. Kronk Sr.

01:40:02.000 says, do you think it's possible that the DNC knew this was in the works so they funded MAGA candidates believing the raid would hurt them?

01:40:10.000 Maybe?

01:40:10.000 4D chess?

01:40:11.000 Yeah, the idea is to make Trump look like he's culpable or something's going on.

01:40:17.000 Yeah.

01:40:17.000 I don't know, man.

01:40:18.000 I guess.

01:40:18.000 I just find it hard, like, I think this is firing up the base even further.

01:40:22.000 I don't know who that person was on Twitter today that had the viral tweet where he's basically like, I was on the fence about Trump 2024, but if this turns out to not lead to anything and this is a witch hunt, like, I'm all in.

01:40:32.000 He's got my vote.

01:40:33.000 I think there are going to be a lot of people that are like that solely because they are so frustrated at the establishment pulling yet another example of this tyranny.

01:40:43.000 All right, let's grab some Super Chits. 0.98

01:40:47.000 Bobcat says, don't forget a president has unilateral authority to say if something isn't classified anymore.

01:40:52.000 A Secretary of State does not.

01:40:53.000 So even if he had some red stickers, the law says he can.

01:40:57.000 Is that true?

01:40:59.000 Trump can just say it's not classified anymore?

01:41:00.000 I don't know.

01:41:01.000 We talked about that.

01:41:02.000 Was it before the show?

01:41:03.000 I keep hearing that.

01:41:05.000 Like, if you want to be like, oh, all the Kennedy stuff, declass.

01:41:07.000 All the alien stuff, declass.

01:41:08.000 All the secret weapons, the CIA stuff, declass.

01:41:11.000 No.

01:41:11.000 I mean, I can't imagine that would fly.

01:41:14.000 It may not fly because there are other powers at play, but I think it is legal.

01:41:17.000 I think you as a president can basically declassify anything you want.

01:41:21.000 Because you're the commander-in-chief, you have the sole authority over issues of national security and classification.

01:41:26.000 And so, what's interesting is if you dig back even deeper, the last kind of modification to that classification rules and parameters was made by Obama in 2009, who basically made it way more lenient and vague.

01:41:38.000 So, very interesting.

01:41:41.000 All right, Thorin Parp says, Ian's shirt looks like it's made out of children's party napkins.

01:41:47.000 That's awesome.

01:41:48.000 Isn't that that plastic tablecloth that you start tearing apart because you feel anxious?

01:41:53.000 I think it would melt on a hot day.

01:41:55.000 Yeah, definitely.

01:41:56.000 Someone gave this to me.

01:41:57.000 I love it.

01:41:58.000 Aaron Freeman says, lest we not forget, they wanted Garland as a Supreme Court judge.

01:42:02.000 They're going for broke now.

01:42:03.000 How do we stop activist shenanigans this election?

01:42:07.000 You gotta go and tell literally every single person you know to vote.

01:42:10.000 True.

01:42:11.000 Every single one of them.

01:42:12.000 Also, fortify your life so that shenanigans aren't going to destroy it.

01:42:16.000 You know, make a system that can withhold that kind of stuff, because that kind of stuff is always going to play out in reality.

01:42:20.000 You go, you call everyone on your phone book and you say, hey, are you going to vote?

01:42:24.000 You go knock on every single door, hey, are you going to vote?

01:42:26.000 And you get ten.

01:42:29.000 Every person gets ten of their friends and asks them, are you going to go vote?

01:42:33.000 And go vote! 0.93

01:42:35.000 Oh, this is important.

01:42:35.000 Purposeful Porpoise says Trump had element 115 in his safe.

01:42:39.000 The Zeta Reticulans will not stand for this! 1.00

01:42:41.000 Sounds like Bob Lazar.

01:42:43.000 Yeah, is that what he said?

01:42:44.000 Yeah, Zeta Reticuli.

01:42:46.000 I think when Bob was working at Area 51, that they told him that there was a Zeta Reticuli, there were little green men, and there was a special element 115.

01:42:54.000 So it's like a red herring. 0.96

01:42:55.000 So if Bob ever went rogue, that he would look like an idiot because there is no Zeta Reticuli. 0.98

01:43:00.000 There's no element 115. 0.98

01:43:01.000 If there is, it's not what they were using.

01:43:03.000 They put a puppet of an alien up in that drone that they were working on and made him think it was alien.

01:43:07.000 Wild.

01:43:08.000 That sounds strange.

01:43:09.000 I don't know about that.

01:43:10.000 Quote, one of Trump's attorneys says they are not in possession of the warrant presented by the FBI prior to the

01:43:15.000 search at Mar-a-Lago They were allowed to see it then it was taken away

01:43:18.000 That sounds strange. I don't know about that. Yeah All right

01:43:26.000 My zoo Yang says what if Biden and his party want Trump's idea of how to make America great

01:43:32.000 So they are stealing his documents by rating. Oh Oh yeah, that's what it is.

01:43:36.000 They want to make America great.

01:43:37.000 Trump's going to win, so they're going to steal his plan.

01:43:42.000 All right.

01:43:43.000 Jimmy Joe says Kristallnacht was November 9th, shortly after the Reichstag fire.

01:43:48.000 Interesting.

01:43:48.000 Wow.

01:43:49.000 Very interesting.

01:43:52.000 Christopher Lambert, someone check Ian's dice.

01:43:55.000 No one rolls that many 20s in a row naturally.

01:43:59.000 It's this one right here.

01:43:59.000 I don't know if you can see from here.

01:44:00.000 Someone printed this to all 20s.

01:44:02.000 That's the one he's rolling.

01:44:03.000 I saw someone in chat.

01:44:04.000 I'm not saying that there is no element 115.

01:44:06.000 There is, but what they told Bob at that time, they had not developed 115 yet, and they just gave him some random futuristic element that would be realized in the future.

01:44:15.000 Now we have it.

01:44:16.000 Keith Fraser says, don't forget that JFK threatened to break the FBI into a million pieces.

01:44:20.000 Is that true?

01:44:21.000 I think it is.

01:44:22.000 Yes.

01:44:23.000 Yeah, he did.

01:44:23.000 Yeah, I don't know if those are exact words.

01:44:25.000 But yeah, he said he was going to shatter it into oblivion or something.

01:44:28.000 Wow.

01:44:28.000 It's a metaphor.

01:44:29.000 Well, and wasn't that wasn't that I mean, the conspiracy around it, like the week before, he had premiered some sort of something that was going to lead to the shattering of some of these three agencies.

01:44:40.000 That's a big thing that always, you know, Joe Rogan's big on the timeline of events leading up to the assassination.

01:44:46.000 And how, what was that JFK revisited documentary that was really good two years ago?

01:44:49.000 But I'll talk about this too.

01:44:51.000 Yeah, talked about kind of the timeline leading up to it.

01:44:53.000 And yeah, apparently that's the story is that he not only said that, but there was some actions in practice and Splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces, was the actual quote.

01:45:04.000 And scatter it to the winds, yeah, the CIA.

01:45:07.000 Let's see, H Music says, Hillary didn't learn when she made her Love Trumps Hate campaign slogan. 1.00

01:45:13.000 It's only missing the apostrophe.

01:45:14.000 So now she's trying, but her email instead.

01:45:16.000 Do you guys remember that?

01:45:17.000 I remember the first time I saw the signs, Love Trumps Hate, and I was like...

01:45:21.000 She wants me to love Trump?

01:45:23.000 Yeah, I remember being confused.

01:45:24.000 His hatred or something?

01:45:25.000 I don't understand.

01:45:26.000 Like, you're saying Trump is hateful and I should love his hatefulness?

01:45:28.000 I do love that.

01:45:29.000 And then someone explained to me, I went, oh, because the T was capitalized, I didn't understand.

01:45:34.000 I get what, wow, these people are terrible.

01:45:37.000 I thought I should have checked that.

01:45:38.000 A good meme would be love Trumps.

01:45:40.000 Just like get it, like when you Trump something, it means you're like beating it.

01:45:43.000 You're like one-upping it.

01:45:44.000 That's what it means.

01:45:45.000 Love Trumps.

01:45:46.000 That's it.

01:45:46.000 Yeah.

01:45:47.000 Wow.

01:45:48.000 Yeah, I take that to mean it's like, do I love the Trumps?

01:45:50.000 Is that what I'm supposed to think?

01:45:51.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:45:52.000 Yeah, I'm confused.

01:45:54.000 They tried to meme.

01:45:55.000 Andrew Ryan says, a man chooses, a slave obeys.

01:45:59.000 Oof.

01:46:00.000 Oof.

01:46:01.000 True.

01:46:03.000 Brian David says, I am also left handed with a recent left hand injury.

01:46:07.000 Also, my membership was automatically renewed via PayPal two days ago.

01:46:10.000 Oh, no.

01:46:10.000 Was that not supposed to happen or?

01:46:13.000 Weren't we supposed to use parallel economy?

01:46:15.000 If people are signed up through PayPal, PayPal is just gonna do their thing until they switch.

01:46:20.000 But, uh, we're, we're... There's... I can't say too much, but we're working on new infrastructure stuff, so...

01:46:27.000 I don't know.

01:46:28.000 Yeah.

01:46:30.000 But if you do want to support the show, we use Parallel Economy.

01:46:33.000 So when you sign up for TimCast.com, you're not only supporting us, you're supporting Parallel Economy, which is a censorship-resistant financial transaction service, and our infrastructure is built on Rumble.

01:46:43.000 So we very much are trying to help flourish and grow this ecosystem so that we can get away from the From the Super Chats! 1.00

01:46:53.000 Super Chats!

01:46:53.000 We love Super Chats!

01:46:54.000 We love Super Chefs.

01:47:01.000 Dana Virk says, Ian, check out the Global Consciousness Project.

01:47:05.000 I know that.

01:47:06.000 Global.

01:47:06.000 Sounds interesting.

01:47:08.000 Alex Ramaze says, Rudy Giuliani on Crowder's show today said, on Crowder's show today, that the FBI were the ones who put locks on the door where the docks were allegedly being stored.

01:47:20.000 Interesting.

01:47:20.000 Is that really?

01:47:21.000 I don't know.

01:47:22.000 I don't know what that means.

01:47:23.000 They locked the door or something?

01:47:26.000 No idea.

01:47:28.000 Grofty says, buck the peck button, buck buck buck.

01:47:32.000 Grofty, a big fan of Chicken City.

01:47:33.000 Yes, we love Grofty.

01:47:34.000 Chicken City.

01:47:36.000 A few of the chickens have moved to a new location, a top-secret location.

01:47:39.000 They've been rehomed.

01:47:41.000 Yeah, the Chicken City is much too large.

01:47:43.000 There is too much chicken poop.

01:47:44.000 It smells.

01:47:44.000 Wow.

01:47:45.000 It does, and especially on a warm, humid night.

01:47:47.000 Through my closed windows somehow.

01:47:50.000 Even the Amish live far away from those wild things. 1.00

01:47:54.000 We'll feed too many chickens.

01:47:56.000 A little overcrowded.

01:47:57.000 Big city.

01:47:58.000 Jacob Carter says, as a Christian, I must say 1. 0.60

01:48:01.000 The rapture is non-biblical nonsense.

01:48:03.000 2.

01:48:04.000 I can't wait for the second coming, but understand it's up to the Father.

01:48:08.000 Also, hope you're having a great day, guys.

01:48:09.000 God bless.

01:48:10.000 Would you agree with that?

01:48:12.000 Agree.

01:48:13.000 I would agree on both counts.

01:48:15.000 Alright.

01:48:16.000 Ken says, I keep alluding to moving out to provincial Philippines.

01:48:20.000 It's my graphene.

01:48:21.000 These same New York Times libs complain about the government, then celebrate worse. 0.58

01:48:27.000 I can't read that.

01:48:28.000 I don't know what it says.

01:48:29.000 Never coming back to the US. 0.98

01:48:30.000 Well, alright.

01:48:31.000 If you feel it like I feel graphene, follow your dreams.

01:48:36.000 Zeba Zepeda says, dude, you should pay attention to South America.

01:48:39.000 Communism is brewing down here in Chile.

01:48:42.000 Look for the 4th of September.

01:48:44.000 And, uh, what does it say?

01:48:45.000 Boric? 0.70

01:48:47.000 He has all of the dictator vibes.

01:48:50.000 Oh, and in Chile, that happens with salmon. 0.83

01:48:53.000 Oh, the chicken poop stuff?

01:48:55.000 Not the poop fish.

01:48:57.000 I thought it was only the tilapia.

01:48:59.000 Don't ruin salmon for me as well.

01:49:02.000 The perk of living in San Diego, lots of fresh fish.

01:49:05.000 I lived in Santiago, Chile for a while, and what I noticed most notoriously was that all the police in the city were national police.

01:49:12.000 They were like feds.

01:49:13.000 There is no local law enforcement there, so if a crazy guy takes hold of that government, he has the entire country's law enforcement system.

01:49:21.000 Wow.

01:49:21.000 E. Rodriguez says, Tim, I live in New York and I am completely fed up with modern leftism.

01:49:25.000 And while I hate staying, moving to a red state at this point in my life is extremely difficult.

01:49:29.000 But I'm not giving up on it.

01:49:31.000 I hear you, man.

01:49:32.000 Yeah.

01:49:32.000 It's not easy for everybody.

01:49:34.000 When I was in Chicago and I moved to L.A., I just took a backpack and a couple hundred bucks and just went.

01:49:39.000 No plan.

01:49:40.000 Nowhere to sleep.

01:49:40.000 Just whatever.

01:49:41.000 Figured it out.

01:49:42.000 Worked out.

01:49:44.000 I don't know though, suppose if you live in the middle of nowhere you're going to be sleeping outside.

01:49:49.000 I guess sleeping outside is better than sleeping outside in the forest or a field is better than outside in the city.

01:49:54.000 Very true.

01:49:54.000 I don't know.

01:49:55.000 There are a lot of bugs.

01:49:57.000 Come to California.

01:49:58.000 Yeah.

01:49:59.000 Trying to make our state seem better.

01:50:00.000 We're trying, sorry.

01:50:02.000 We're not moving there.

01:50:03.000 Not a lot of bugs.

01:50:04.000 Not much problem.

01:50:05.000 All right.

01:50:06.000 Waffle Sense says, Ian, have you ever thought that you're not just seeing patterns in the universe, but that you're feeling God speak to you?

01:50:13.000 Because in my experience, God manifests this kind of way, not with some audible voice in your ear.

01:50:18.000 Yes, Waffle Sensei, I love you by the way, man.

01:50:20.000 Yeah, God speaks to me in shapes.

01:50:23.000 I see visions of behavior.

01:50:25.000 I don't necessarily, sometimes I'll hear words like an impulse of a sound, but normally it's a vision of me doing something or something happening when I ask a question.

01:50:33.000 That's the response.

01:50:35.000 The Bible for Unbearable says, Revelation 18.23, For your merchants were the great men of the earth, and by thy sorceries all nations were deceived.

01:50:46.000 The word sorceries is translated from the Greek word... Pharmakaia.

01:50:49.000 Pharmakaia.

01:50:50.000 Ah, that's right.

01:50:52.000 Wow, really?

01:50:53.000 Weird, yeah.

01:50:54.000 Interesting.

01:50:55.000 The spirit of sorcery that takes over the world was the spirit of Pharmakaia. 0.99

01:50:59.000 Very, very interesting.

01:51:01.000 Revelation 18.

01:51:03.000 For a while now, people have been talking about the signs and they're trying to look at Revelation and then say, like, look, this is this thing and this is this thing.

01:51:11.000 Totally.

01:51:12.000 But I've heard that for a while, you know what I mean?

01:51:13.000 People thought Hitler was the Antichrist, because he talked about establishing the Third Reich, which was literally going to be like a thousand-year dominion.

01:51:19.000 Right.

01:51:20.000 You know, there were a lot of reasons that Christians have thought we're in the final days, for literally thousands of years.

01:51:25.000 So, yeah.

01:51:26.000 I missed the Pharmakaia, what was that?

01:51:28.000 Uh, Revelations 18, you can read the exact verse again, I don't, uh... 1823.

01:51:31.000 Yeah.

01:51:32.000 Look up, look up, look up Revelation 1823.

01:51:34.000 Yeah.

01:51:35.000 Mr. Toad says, what is Public Square's version of ESG?

01:51:39.000 Oh, love this question!

01:51:41.000 Yeah, we adamantly stand against ESG, Environmental Social Governance Standards, if you're not familiar.

01:51:47.000 It's the new philosophy that's overtaken especially the world of corporate investing, and so most any company you buy from that's owned by a corporation at this point adopts these ESG standards, and they rob your life in a lot of ways. 0.58

01:52:00.000 They basically prioritize woke politics and nearsighted and almost ignorant principles

01:52:08.000 related to the environment in their production of goods that you buy, and then they make

01:52:13.000 you come along that journey with them.

01:52:15.000 And they also carry that into hiring, and so this relates to things like diversity quotas.

01:52:19.000 DEI is another word that's very similar, different philosophical framework, but they go in tandem

01:52:24.000 often, which is diversity, equity, inclusion.

01:52:26.000 Public Square stands against it by not focusing on identity politics at all, and the thing

01:52:31.000 we are most concerned about in the world of manufacturing is not carbon emissions, it

01:52:36.000 is make your stuff in America.

01:52:37.000 Because if you make your stuff in America, statistically, it'll lead to less emissions because China is the world's great polluter right now, and most of that comes from manufacturing. 0.64

01:52:44.000 So, if we can trust that you're making your products in America, there's a good likelihood that it's far more sustainable than what's happening overseas too.

01:52:50.000 Waffles says, have you guys seen Saudi Arabia's The Line?

01:52:53.000 It's a megacity they are building.

01:52:55.000 Look it up, it's weird dystopian stuff.

01:52:57.000 What is that?

01:52:58.000 I have seen so many videos like this.

01:53:01.000 It's nonsense.

01:53:02.000 Some artist probably made it.

01:53:04.000 I don't think it's real.

01:53:04.000 But what's happening in this Agenda 2030 concept is megacities.

01:53:08.000 They want to put humans in centralized spots so they can have wild land. 0.97

01:53:13.000 But the problem is humans centralized do not do well.

01:53:15.000 We need to be able to move in different directions to get away if there's a disaster.

01:53:19.000 Not just that.

01:53:21.000 If you take a little bit of chicken poop, let's say one mop bucket full, and throw it into a field, how long until that is washed away and dissipates?

01:53:32.000 Rather quickly, I mean one rain, probably.

01:53:34.000 Take, I don't know, 200 tons of chicken poop, and centralize it in the same place, and how long until it gets washed away?

01:53:40.000 Exponentially longer.

01:53:42.000 When you put all these people in one city and they're all taking dumps every day, how do you wash that away?

01:53:50.000 It's very, very difficult to maintain and manage that system.

01:53:53.000 You're gonna have to hit it with lasers. 0.96

01:53:54.000 Whereas for people who live in rural areas who are on septic systems know that if you do it right, you can leave that system for years.

01:54:01.000 You don't have to worry about it, you know, too much because bacteria takes care of it.

01:54:04.000 That's right.

01:54:05.000 That's called sustainable living.

01:54:07.000 I was just picturing a septic tank with a laser inside that blasts the carbon and turns it into graphene once it hits.

01:54:13.000 Remember the flooding in the New York subway system that was happening?

01:54:18.000 During Sandy?

01:54:19.000 Not just Sandy.

01:54:20.000 No, somewhat recently.

01:54:22.000 And people were talking about how that system, it was built so long ago that they think it's on its last legs, but there's nothing you can really do to repair it.

01:54:31.000 Yep.

01:54:32.000 So in New York, I could be wrong about this.

01:54:33.000 This is what I was told.

01:54:34.000 They have these big nitrogen tanks on street corners.

01:54:37.000 You've seen them before probably.

01:54:39.000 Big chrome tanks of nitrogen.

01:54:40.000 And you'll see like steam.

01:54:41.000 You'll see like a big orange cone of like steam coming out.

01:54:45.000 What I was told is that the wiring systems of New York are so old that they're melting underground and falling apart so they blast nitrogen to exhaust the heat.

01:54:55.000 So it's like a duct tape solution to the problem.

01:54:57.000 Yeah.

01:54:58.000 Maybe it's not true, though.

01:54:58.000 I mean, just some dude in New York told me that, so maybe it's not real.

01:55:02.000 But you gotta understand, when you build a machine like the subway system, yeah, repairing that is difficult.

01:55:11.000 Like, what do you do?

01:55:11.000 It's like, okay, we're advancing our new technology, but we've got how many square miles, how many miles in general of track that you would need to change for new technology.

01:55:23.000 That's the challenge of these big cities.

01:55:25.000 So one thing you'll see is fascinating.

01:55:27.000 Cell technology in poor countries would be better than they were in America.

01:55:33.000 The United States, we get the like, I think the first network was like the IDEN network.

01:55:37.000 And so, you know, we launched the cell network and we're like, look at this, our phones work in other places.

01:55:41.000 Poor country couldn't afford it.

01:55:43.000 So they didn't build it.

01:55:44.000 Then the technology started becoming cheaper and cheaper.

01:55:47.000 But by then we had already developed CDMA or something like that.

01:55:51.000 So then these poor countries implement the stronger, better technology because it took them longer to get.

01:55:56.000 Wow.

01:55:57.000 And then we're trapped with these old garbage networks that we're trying to repurpose.

01:56:00.000 Looks like New York's got 248 miles of routes.

01:56:03.000 This is subway.

01:56:03.000 The subway system.

01:56:05.000 665 miles of revenue track.

01:56:06.000 I'm not sure what that is exactly, but a total of 850 miles of track.

01:56:10.000 Wow.

01:56:10.000 So there's revenue and non-revenue track.

01:56:13.000 I'm not sure.

01:56:13.000 Yo, that's crazy.

01:56:16.000 Do you guys know much about Starlink?

01:56:18.000 I have Starlink.

01:56:18.000 You do?

01:56:19.000 Yeah.

01:56:19.000 Do you like it?

01:56:21.000 We've done tests on it, and the upload rate is impractical for a business.

01:56:25.000 Insufficient.

01:56:26.000 Gotcha.

01:56:26.000 Yeah, five megabits.

01:56:27.000 Your last point.

01:56:28.000 Impractical for a streaming business?

01:56:29.000 Yeah.

01:56:30.000 I mean, for any business, to be honest.

01:56:31.000 Gotcha.

01:56:31.000 So they're still in the early stages.

01:56:33.000 Yeah.

01:56:33.000 Yeah, we got the... I got the RV version and the business version, and the business one's much bigger, and it's not faster.

01:56:40.000 Have you had luck linking them together?

01:56:42.000 We have not yet bonded them.

01:56:45.000 But that's the next experiment we need to do because we have three.

01:56:47.000 We have two RV units and one business unit.

01:56:50.000 And so we also have the Ethernet system and we have a bonding unit.

01:56:54.000 We can actually spread them out, blast them all off, and then bond them, and then it's a diminishing return.

01:57:02.000 Five megabits up per each, you'll probably end up with, you know, 11 or 12 megabits.

01:57:07.000 Gotcha.

01:57:08.000 So it's a diminishing return.

01:57:09.000 That's not bad.

01:57:10.000 Not bad.

01:57:12.000 You know, it's good.

01:57:13.000 I mean, for people in rural areas, Starlink's fantastic.

01:57:15.000 Yeah.

01:57:16.000 Well, in those poor countries, like you're mentioning.

01:57:17.000 If you're in a poor, rural country.

01:57:20.000 But I'll be honest, if you're running a business, we already have satellite internet.

01:57:23.000 That's good.

01:57:24.000 I think our satellite internet is actually faster than Starlink, but the latency is ten times slower.

01:57:30.000 That's the issue.

01:57:31.000 With Starlink, the latency, I think, was 68 milliseconds, and our existing satellite is like 360 or something like that.

01:57:37.000 So five times.

01:57:39.000 It's faster, but it has worse latency?

01:57:41.000 What's that mean exactly?

01:57:42.000 It's longer ping.

01:57:44.000 So if you're playing a video game, you'll get lag.

01:57:47.000 Right?

01:57:47.000 You're playing World of Warcraft, you're gonna swing... So it sends more data per packet, but it sends packets less frequently?

01:57:53.000 It's a further distance, because Starlink is low orbit.

01:57:57.000 There, I got it out.

01:58:00.000 Yeah.

01:58:01.000 I think that's what it is.

01:58:02.000 I don't know.

01:58:03.000 The lower latency allows you to send and receive signals faster, but there's less data in it, I guess.

01:58:08.000 It could just be because of congestion or something.

01:58:10.000 You know, I have no idea.

01:58:11.000 We'll have to get Elon on the show and ask him about it.

01:58:14.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:58:14.000 That's a great idea.

01:58:15.000 Anytime, anytime.

01:58:18.000 Joss Mosk says, 2Timothy3 1-5 talks about the last days before the return of Jesus and sounds like where we are now in the world.

01:58:28.000 Okay.

01:58:29.000 But I think it always does.

01:58:30.000 I mean, you mentioned like Hitler, because Hitler is the best example of someone that would have been the Antichrist, I can think of. 0.93

01:58:37.000 Yeah, there's a lot of reasons as you look back.

01:58:38.000 In fact, there's a year, maybe one of y'all can help me and look this up.

01:58:42.000 But there was a year, I think it was 936 AD, 636 AD.

01:58:46.000 It was the darkest year in human history, because the volcano blew up in Southeast Asia, and it sent the whole world into black for a year, like the sun didn't shine for a year.

01:58:54.000 Wow.

01:58:55.000 Yeah, crazy.

01:58:56.000 It's like, you hear stories like that, you're like, can you imagine what the people must have been thinking?

01:59:00.000 Like, they had to have thought.

01:59:02.000 No, and yeah, diseases start running rampant.

01:59:04.000 Like, you had every reason to think you're in the end times.

01:59:06.000 And here we are today.

01:59:07.000 So, you know.

01:59:09.000 Stellar Orbit says, I think we crashed the Public Square app.

01:59:12.000 Yep.

01:59:12.000 Yeah.

01:59:13.000 It'll be back up.

01:59:14.000 We've got an amazing team of devs.

01:59:15.000 This is the beauty of building the plane in flight, and we just launched, so I really appreciate the traffic.

01:59:20.000 That's amazing.

01:59:21.000 But you asked the greatest challenge, which is, in the world of software, when you've got a lean-to-mean team accommodating the demand.

01:59:27.000 Thank you so much, everybody, for wanting to join the community.

01:59:29.000 It should be up and running back to you ASAP.

01:59:33.000 Brofin says, Mike, is there an API?

01:59:36.000 Lots of APIs.

01:59:38.000 It would depend on what they're looking for in terms of like being able to source businesses from the platform for other uses.

01:59:44.000 Yeah, kind of.

01:59:44.000 Yeah.

01:59:45.000 All right.

01:59:46.000 Kyle Bratton says, literally just downloaded the app.

01:59:49.000 Will be putting my business on here and convince my friends to do the same.

01:59:52.000 Hey, that's awesome.

01:59:53.000 That's what makes the platform special.

01:59:55.000 That's so cool.

01:59:56.000 I was surprised to see how many in D.C.

01:59:57.000 were on the app.

01:59:58.000 Right?

01:59:58.000 There's a lot.

01:59:59.000 Yeah.

01:59:59.000 That's great.

02:00:00.000 I'm going to D.C.

02:00:00.000 this weekend.

02:00:01.000 We're going to make sure we're going to good businesses who don't hate us.

02:00:04.000 Yes, absolutely.

02:00:05.000 And I would probably assume, too, because while there are a lot of businesses, I wouldn't say it's a large percentage of total businesses, right?

02:00:14.000 Yeah, 30 million small businesses in the United States.

02:00:16.000 And so we've got awesome partners in this space that have had a lot of hope for us from the beginning because they just have been exposed to so many small business owners.

02:00:23.000 You guys have had Charlie Kirk on your show.

02:00:25.000 Charlie Kirk, when he first heard about this in January, looked me in the eyes and said, in the next year, you'll have 100,000 businesses on this thing.

02:00:31.000 I mean, the market is just so large for it because there is such a coalition of these people.

02:00:35.000 So yeah, the potential is pretty wild.

02:00:38.000 30 million small businesses in the United States.

02:00:39.000 And what gets me really excited is like all the employees that are positively affected through that,

02:00:43.000 because you think for every small business, you've got a few employees most of the time

02:00:46.000 you're accounting for too.

02:00:47.000 And so if we can help even a tiny percentage of that, like that's a dream come true.

02:00:53.000 A lot of people are asking about Canada.

02:00:55.000 Ah, yes.

02:00:56.000 Okay, we're coming.

02:00:58.000 I'll tell you that.

02:00:59.000 And I will also say this, it is our next country.

02:01:02.000 So let us take care of the United States first and hire a little bit more of a robust team, and then we will take on Canada.

02:01:10.000 But that is our next stop.

02:01:11.000 All right.

02:01:12.000 One more super chat.

02:01:13.000 We got Justin Green who says Joe Kent wins primary election.

02:01:15.000 Joe Kent won?

02:01:16.000 I don't know.

02:01:17.000 I'd have to check.

02:01:18.000 I believe it.

02:01:18.000 The eight-day election or whatever?

02:01:19.000 Yeah.

02:01:20.000 All right, everybody.

02:02:09.000 I'm getting confirmation that Jamie, her, or Butler conceded to Joe Kent.

02:02:15.000 That's from Fox News.

02:02:16.000 Right on.

02:02:16.000 Great news.

02:02:17.000 Right, guys.

02:02:17.000 Great show tonight.

02:02:18.000 Awesome to see you, Mike.

02:02:19.000 That was great.

02:02:20.000 Really cool, actually.

02:02:21.000 Really awesome.

02:02:22.000 Bye, everyone.

02:02:22.000 I love you.

02:02:23.000 Yeah.

02:02:23.000 And I would say, too, for this app crashing tonight, to check in tomorrow.

02:02:27.000 Thank you so much for coming and discussing this with us, Michael.

02:02:29.000 This is huge.

02:02:31.000 White pill.

02:02:31.000 I'm so glad it's working now.

02:02:33.000 And I want to say there's an old Latin adage which says, we're all familiar with it, if you would have peace, prepare for war.

02:02:38.000 And I think that's the best way to live life.

02:02:40.000 And I will leave you with that.
