Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Italy Offers COLOSSEUM To Elon Musk And Zuckerberg For FIGHT w-Alex Stein

00:00:00.000 Italy has offered Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg the use of the Colosseum for their fight.

00:00:30.000 Please, I don't know who may be out there, a higher power, whatever you are, please, all I ask is to make that happen.

00:00:38.000 Could you guys imagine?

00:00:40.000 The Coliseum, lights, cameras, the stage, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, that'd be the greatest thing ever.

00:00:47.000 So yeah, we're gonna talk about that.

00:00:49.000 And then we got a bunch of news.

00:00:50.000 I guess it's news Joe Biden's going to bypass the Supreme Court rulings because, you know, he's fairly corrupt, but sure, whatever.

00:00:56.000 Michigan is making it a felony to use the wrong pronouns.

00:00:59.000 What else is new?

00:01:00.000 And in France, there's a major riot going on.

00:01:03.000 A Republican congressman said that he thinks alien ships may actually be from a lost civilization.

00:01:08.000 Hey, it's a Friday night.

00:01:10.000 Uh, we're gonna get into all that, but before we get started, my friends, we're gonna give a shout-out to Silence Do Good!

00:01:14.000 Check this out.

00:01:15.000 This is a, uh, comic produced by one of the TimCast members if you go to turkeyrobot.com You can check out more, excuse me, and support the Silence Do Good comic.

00:01:26.000 We have here their Indiegogo project for Silence Do Good time travel agent.

00:01:30.000 They say, what if America's most prolific founding father found himself trapped inside a VR program controlled by AI?

00:01:37.000 If you want to support the comic, again, turkeyrobot.com, Salty, Alan Rhodes, Charles Knopf, special thanks to you guys for being members.

00:01:45.000 And I want to just shout out the best image I've seen so far.

00:01:49.000 This right here is part of the comic, and clearly it's an allusion to Joe Biden, but the symbol of the authoritarian regime is a red line with a blue line going up, jumping above the red line and moving forward.

00:02:01.000 I thought that was terribly clever.

00:02:03.000 Terribly amazing.

00:02:26.000 Let's do it. 0.99

00:02:27.000 Okay.

00:02:28.000 Ashley St.

00:02:28.000 Clair is still here.

00:02:29.000 Hello!

00:02:30.000 I haven't left.

00:02:31.000 They've kept me and kidnapped here.

00:02:32.000 I had to eat sushi and look at a skate park.

00:02:34.000 Yes.

00:02:35.000 That was fun.

00:02:35.000 So you admit it, there's a skate park.

00:02:38.000 It's there.

00:02:38.000 That's a big conspiracy.

00:02:39.000 It's there.

00:02:39.000 Hannah Clare is here.

00:02:41.000 Oh hey!

00:02:41.000 She's already talking.

00:02:42.000 Sorry.

00:02:43.000 I'm Hannah Clare Brimelow.

00:02:43.000 I'm a writer for TimCast.com.

00:02:45.000 Hi, everyone.

00:02:46.000 Ian Crosland here, too.

00:02:46.000 I read that comic.

00:02:47.000 I like it.

00:02:49.000 Silence do good.

00:02:50.000 Cool stuff, man.

00:02:51.000 You guys did a great job.

00:02:52.000 That's really interesting.

00:02:52.000 It's intriguing.

00:02:53.000 For, like, a six-page preempt, that's really cool.

00:02:56.000 Thanks.

00:02:58.000 It's well done.

00:02:59.000 It's Kellan filling in Friday for Surge, and I just want to say happy birthday, Grimace, so shout out.

00:03:05.000 We love you, Grimace, RIP.

00:03:06.000 I think he died today, too.

00:03:09.000 It's his birthday, but I think he died as well.

00:03:12.000 Let's jump into the first story, the only story that matters.

00:03:15.000 Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, Italian government offer, fight like true gladiators at the Colosseum.

00:03:22.000 The Ministry of Culture's office issued a statement saying, there have been no... Okay, so they're already raining on our parade.

00:03:26.000 This is the update literally as of right now.

00:03:29.000 There has been no formal contact from the Ministry nor any written document, even if the news appears tasty, it is unfounded.

00:03:35.000 The initial report was that an official from the government of Italy contacted Zuckerberg about staging a UFC fight against Elon at the most legendary battleground in the world.

00:03:43.000 You know why I think it's more likely they did make the offer?

00:03:46.000 I think they're panicking and they're saying, no, no, no, no, we never, we never made this up.

00:03:50.000 No, I think someone probably did.

00:03:52.000 I think someone was like a preliminary.

00:03:54.000 Look, if someone in Italy was going to entertain the possibility, the first thing you got to do is figure out if Elon and Zuckerberg would do it.

00:04:01.000 You can't go to the government and say, hey, let's prepare the Coliseum for a UFC fight.

00:04:05.000 We'll book them later.

00:04:06.000 No, no, no.

00:04:07.000 The first thing we do is they'll go to Mark Zuckerberg and say, hey, how would you feel about fighting at the Coliseum?

00:04:11.000 Zuckerberg tells somebody, the story goes viral, and it was preliminary in the sense that you need to know for sure they want to do it before you make any moves to prepare for it.

00:04:20.000 But, uh, what do you think, Alex?

00:04:22.000 You don't think they would just fake it for the publicity and just say that, I mean, it's a possibility?

00:04:26.000 I just, I don't believe anything that I read in the news, so I think that they could just be... Oh, you think he's just lying about it?

00:04:31.000 I mean, yeah, they're just trying to get some clout or... I just want to believe it's true, though.

00:04:34.000 No, Elon tweeted it!

00:04:34.000 I know, I want to believe it's true!

00:04:35.000 He tweeted it!

00:04:36.000 Elon said there's a high possibility the fight happens at the Coliseum. 1.00

00:04:39.000 Oh, that's where shit happens. 0.99

00:04:40.000 And as he says, the most entertaining outcome is the most likely. 0.99

00:04:44.000 I highly agree with that.

00:04:45.000 That would be the most entertaining outcome.

00:04:46.000 Do you think Elon's just manifesting, though?

00:04:48.000 Like, no one from Italy was... I don't think he needs to manifest.

00:04:52.000 He probably actually got the offer.

00:04:53.000 What if he's a huge believer in manifesting?

00:04:54.000 That's how he's gonna get a fight at Coliseum.

00:04:57.000 We got his tweet right here.

00:04:57.000 He said, some chance fight happens in Coliseum.

00:05:00.000 I told you.

00:05:01.000 So I need to work on my endurance.

00:05:03.000 It's a non-zero chance.

00:05:05.000 He said he needs to work on his endurance?

00:05:07.000 Yeah.

00:05:08.000 You know, Lex Friedman sparred with both these guys, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, and at the end of it all he said, I love these guys, I had so much fun, I want them to be sparring partners.

00:05:18.000 I don't want them to actually fight, because, you know, you break Elon Musk's brain, that's a big problem for a lot of people.

00:05:23.000 Same with Zuck.

00:05:24.000 So, I kind of with Mark, I don't even think it has to be like wet blanket, like womp womp. 0.99

00:05:29.000 It could be really great to see Elon and Mark spar and to see them become friends and work together for the future.

00:05:36.000 I would agree.

00:05:37.000 I don't think Elon's mom is too happy either.

00:05:39.000 You've seen her tweets.

00:05:42.000 Do you think Elon would consider a performance-enhancing neural link to help him in the fight if he hooked himself up to a computer to give him an advantage?

00:05:50.000 His neural net versus Zuckerberg's meta net?

00:05:52.000 Yeah, I mean they could be each other's... Somehow they both need to hook up to a computer and fight in the metaverse and then nobody gets hurt.

00:05:59.000 If you were gonna do a boxing match and you could somehow have like an augmented chip or system so that you could read your opponent's algorithm, like you could see their muscle, you could see what part of their muscles were getting hot How fast parts of their body were moving, would you augment?

00:06:13.000 Well, yeah, I mean, I think the future, you know, we joke about this a lot, Ian, but I really, I'm a conspiracy theorist, I'm a tinfoil hat wearing, but I do believe that that is the future, that they're going to tell people to plug into a computer, some sort of vanilla sky fake world, and you're going to live in some sort of pod, but on Earth, they're going to say, you only live until 70 years, but in this pod, you're going to live for a thousand years.

00:06:34.000 Because, more than that, or more than that, no, no, no, but I mean, more than just being immortal, they're going to say, in the pod, you can fly.

00:06:40.000 Yeah, you can be quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.

00:06:42.000 What was that?

00:06:43.000 You identify as a carrot?

00:06:44.000 In the pod, you can be a carrot.

00:06:45.000 In the pod, you are a carrot.

00:06:45.000 Exactly right.

00:06:47.000 Carrot world.

00:06:48.000 Imagine somebody being like, I just feel like I was born in the wrong body, I'm a carrot.

00:06:53.000 And then they plug you in, and you go into a fake world where every other person is an AI-generated NPC, and they're carrots, and you live in a world where everyone's a carrot.

00:07:02.000 That'd be better than what's happening right now, to be honest.

00:07:05.000 Cutting off all their limbs. 0.99

00:07:06.000 That's why they're making the world so bad! 0.99

00:07:08.000 Don't be a metaverse carrot.

00:07:09.000 They want you to have such a terrible life, you know, just be totally basically destitute, can't make any money, so that your only option is that you live in this computer where you're a millionaire.

00:07:19.000 It's a long-term marketing scheme.

00:07:20.000 Yes.

00:07:20.000 I mean, is Cypher wrong when he's eating the steak and he's like, I don't care?

00:07:25.000 That's the best part of the movie, really.

00:07:26.000 Yeah.

00:07:27.000 Think about it, because, like, do you really want to go back to the Matrix?

00:07:30.000 I probably would.

00:07:31.000 I mean, if you're on a ship with a bunch of dudes, like, pooping, you know... In a bucket. 0.66

00:07:35.000 In a bucket! 0.59

00:07:36.000 You know, that movie's terrible.

00:07:37.000 Or you can go to the fake metaverse where you can just eat steak and be a billionaire.

00:07:40.000 But once you know, dude.

00:07:41.000 Once you know, it's like...

00:07:43.000 Knowing that your body is in some metal tank, you know, in a pod, being pumped full of bugs, no steak would ever taste as good.

00:07:51.000 You'd be like constantly like, you know what I mean?

00:07:54.000 My dreams feel real sometimes.

00:07:54.000 Well, I don't know.

00:07:56.000 You've had a dream that felt real.

00:07:59.000 How do you get... Well, I'm just saying, in the metaverse, or whatever, when you're plugged in, your dreams could feel like it's real.

00:08:06.000 I mean, I've had sex in a dream and it felt real.

00:08:08.000 I mean, I've eaten in a dream and it seemed like I was eating food.

00:08:12.000 Every time I try punching in a dream, my hands just move real slow.

00:08:14.000 Yeah, that's weird.

00:08:15.000 When I start running away, you're like... The worst reading!

00:08:18.000 But you know what I still have?

00:08:19.000 Do you guys have stress dreams?

00:08:21.000 I have a dream and it's recurring.

00:08:22.000 I don't have it as much anymore where I wake up in the middle of the night and it's a friend calling me and he's like, why aren't you at the exam right now?

00:08:28.000 And I get a zero on the test.

00:08:29.000 I have that regularly.

00:08:30.000 Yeah, I don't have that because I didn't go to school.

00:08:31.000 Do you guys have regular dreams about missing exams?

00:08:33.000 No, it was like, I always had this dream when I was in college that I had signed up for a class and then somehow forgotten about it and on the last day of the semester you remember and you have to go take a final or something.

00:08:42.000 Yeah, or it's like- Just that you have something you have forgotten.

00:08:44.000 That sense is always there.

00:08:45.000 It'll be like a football game.

00:08:46.000 I'll be in high school and I'll be like, I got a football game tonight and I can't get there.

00:08:50.000 It's weird.

00:08:51.000 Yeah, I have dreams like that, but it's more like I miss the show.

00:08:53.000 Yeah, that's exactly like I'll have a dream where it's like we're our car broke down in DC and it's like we're not gonna make it back in time.

00:08:59.000 What do we do?

00:09:00.000 And I'm like, wow, I'm gonna miss it mine where I'd be have a play that night and I didn't know my lines.

00:09:05.000 I forgot to memorize my lines, but I'm all going on stage in the dream and it's like I have this recurring nightmare where Alex Stein is boxing a guy.

00:09:13.000 That's terrifying.

00:09:15.000 That's a scary dream, yeah, me boxing.

00:09:18.000 Is that what's going on?

00:09:19.000 What's going on?

00:09:19.000 I'm boxing!

00:09:20.000 Yes, guys, everybody, July 22nd, Misfits008.

00:09:25.000 You're looking at the newest Logan Paul wannabe, Primetime Alex Stein.

00:09:28.000 I'm going head-to-head against Mo Dean in a no-holds bar.

00:09:32.000 Well, there are rules, so there are I was noticing you're looking a little thin.

00:09:35.000 I am!

00:09:35.000 Thank you, Tim!

00:09:36.000 Tim's been very nice to me.

00:09:36.000 There are rules in boxing gloves.

00:09:38.000 But no helmet, no headgear, and it's three two-minute rounds in Modine.

00:09:44.000 You better watch out, dawg, because I'm going to bring the thunder and the lightning if

00:09:46.000 you know what I mean.

00:09:47.000 I was noticing you're looking a little thin.

00:09:48.000 I am!

00:09:49.000 Thank you, Tim!

00:09:50.000 Tim's been very nice to me.

00:09:51.000 And to that girl last week, there's a...

00:09:54.000 I'm telling you, I've never seen more sushi in my life.

00:09:56.000 I thought I was in Japan when I walked in.

00:09:58.000 You have a refrigerator full of... Why do you have so much sushi?

00:10:01.000 It's Friday.

00:10:02.000 I know, but you got a lot.

00:10:03.000 I mean, there's a lot.

00:10:04.000 There's a platter.

00:10:04.000 There's 30 people who work here.

00:10:06.000 That's a lot of sushi.

00:10:06.000 We get two trays for, like, 30 people.

00:10:09.000 Normally, like, the scraps we throw to the chickens, but the chickens are in an emergency holding facility due to the air quality.

00:10:14.000 That's what I heard.

00:10:14.000 Which has improved, so now they can come home.

00:10:16.000 Yeah, the air quality is totally safe.

00:10:17.000 Now it rained.

00:10:18.000 I'm very happy.

00:10:19.000 This morning, I was inhaling that oxygen stuff.

00:10:21.000 Really works.

00:10:22.000 I got a question about everybody getting put in pods.

00:10:25.000 You guys were talking about that earlier.

00:10:26.000 So you said they think they want people in pods just because they want you to... At least I've talked about this.

00:10:31.000 They want to control people and make sure they don't go crazy and put them in the pod.

00:10:34.000 Do you think that people really believe that if we were happy and we started pairing up and having families and communities, that that would actually be a bad thing?

00:10:43.000 Is there a thought that that would be bad somehow?

00:10:46.000 Yes, because they hate you.

00:10:48.000 Like, what is it they hate?

00:10:49.000 What do you think they hate?

00:10:50.000 You are the carbon they are trying to reduce.

00:10:53.000 You're a peasant that they want to eradicate. 1.00

00:10:59.000 Imagine this. 0.95

00:11:00.000 Imagine you have roommates who keep pooping on the floor.

00:11:04.000 You would like to not have those roommates, correct?

00:11:05.000 That's true, yeah.

00:11:06.000 That's how they view you.

00:11:07.000 They're like, look, we're over here trying to worship Malik and, you know, create a one-world currency, and this guy Ian Crossan's making these videos about abolishing the Federal Reserve.

00:11:17.000 That's a problem for us.

00:11:19.000 And Ian, it said it on the Georgia Guidestones, they want to reduce the population.

00:11:25.000 It said, maintain a population under 500 million.

00:11:29.000 It didn't say reduce the population.

00:11:30.000 Oh, I see what you're saying.

00:11:31.000 Yes, but there's a reason why they want a small population because they just want the elites and then basically like a housekeeping staff. 0.92

00:11:37.000 So they just don't want there to be like two classes.

00:11:39.000 And that's kind of where we're going.

00:11:40.000 There is no middle class anymore.

00:11:41.000 And that's why I think people have lost the American dream because nobody can afford a single family home.

00:11:45.000 And if you look at like the price of a single family home in the 60s to now, I mean, it's just it's impossible.

00:11:50.000 Our parents had A lot easier when I come to the American Dream.

00:11:54.000 I think that's why the US government and Big Pharma and tech companies love depressed people, because who's gonna get into these pods?

00:11:59.000 Like, if you have friends, a community, and a family, why would you be like, I need to live in virtual reality?

00:12:04.000 Whereas if you don't like your life, you're lonely, you're depressed, of course you would get into the pod.

00:12:09.000 You're the first to go.

00:12:10.000 But they like everyone here.

00:12:12.000 They don't like liberals.

00:12:13.000 I maintain this position.

00:12:14.000 What do you mean?

00:12:19.000 When we're talking about powerful wealthy elites and people who run corporations, if you went to the average CEO and said, which group of people would you rather have?

00:12:28.000 Rural conservatives or urban liberals?

00:12:30.000 They'd say rural conservatives hands down.

00:12:32.000 Unquestionably.

00:12:34.000 You think that?

00:12:36.000 I would say it is...

00:12:39.000 Fairly obvious for a lot of reasons.

00:12:42.000 The first, think about climate change.

00:12:45.000 Big problems, but it's all stemming from cities.

00:12:48.000 Think about all the problems Democrats talk about with overpopulated prisons.

00:12:51.000 Cities.

00:12:52.000 Then think about the fact that conservatives don't protest.

00:12:54.000 But they don't say that they're killing cows in Ireland.

00:12:56.000 Sure, sure, sure.

00:12:57.000 It's not absolute, but what I'm saying is, conservatives don't protest.

00:13:01.000 They live on little farms and mind their own business.

00:13:03.000 The amount of pollution produced by the average conservative is substantially lower than produced by the average liberal.

00:13:08.000 So if you look at everything these global elites are talking about, all the problems they're experiencing, it is dense cities, not rural populations.

00:13:15.000 So I always put it like this.

00:13:17.000 Alex, if a person came up to you and said, Alex, have you considered aborting your children?

00:13:21.000 What would you think?

00:13:22.000 Do you think that person's your friend, or do you think they hate you?

00:13:25.000 Would you consider sterilizing your kid?

00:13:27.000 I'm just wondering. 1.00

00:13:29.000 Yeah, I would think you're a psycho. 0.98

00:13:30.000 That's not a person who likes you. 0.97

00:13:32.000 So when you have these Democrat politicians and people like Bill Gates or whatever being like, I think people should be allowed to remove their children and abortion should be available for all of these people.

00:13:42.000 I kind of think you hate them and you're trying to have less of them.

00:13:46.000 You know what I mean?

00:13:47.000 Yeah, but to be fair, did you see that Lindsey Graham where he was talking to Zelensky and how he was so happy about more dead Russians? 0.99

00:13:53.000 I think so.

00:13:54.000 I was like, oh, if that means more, I guess they were talking about giving them more weapons.

00:13:57.000 He said, oh, if that means more dead Russians, good. 1.00

00:14:00.000 So he's, I guess, conservative, but it doesn't matter the right side or the left side.

00:14:04.000 They don't care about us.

00:14:06.000 They don't care about their country.

00:14:07.000 This is my point.

00:14:09.000 The way I describe it is, you've got a chicken coop.

00:14:11.000 The chickens keep pooping in their water.

00:14:13.000 You go into the chicken coop and you say, hey, you chickens, you stop pooping in your water.

00:14:17.000 The next day you come outside, half the chickens are still pooping in the water,

00:14:20.000 the other half have stopped.

00:14:21.000 Which chickens do you eat?

00:14:22.000 Yeah, the water pooping ones.

00:14:23.000 The ones that won't listen, that keep polluting and destroying everything.

00:14:26.000 So when I look at, when you go to West Virginia and you drive around, what do you find?

00:14:29.000 People have solar panels, people have septic systems, which are very self-regulating in a lot of ways.

00:14:34.000 You've gotta get them pumped, but if done right, it could be, you might not have to.

00:14:38.000 So the pollution produced in rural areas dissipates.

00:14:42.000 In cities, it concentrates.

00:14:44.000 And then what do you see?

00:14:45.000 The advocacy for, in blue states, things that stop liberals from having kids.

00:14:52.000 So it may be they really don't care about us at all, and all they're saying is, let's enact policies that result in less people, but those policies disproportionately reduce liberal populations.

00:15:01.000 Yes, but I also see a disdain from the elites for people who are self-sufficient, and they continue to pass legislation that is contrary to people being self-sufficient.

00:15:14.000 You can't even collect rainwater, for God's sake, in many states.

00:15:18.000 That's true, but there's a lot of reason for that.

00:15:22.000 But those are in blue cities.

00:15:26.000 You look at red states and they're doing the opposite of that.

00:15:28.000 No, even in red states, there's still a lot of restrictions, two-way restrictions that I don't agree with.

00:15:35.000 I think they have a disdain for a lot of flyover states and the people there.

00:15:38.000 I think they do have a disdain for- We have absolutely one on two-way.

00:15:42.000 The expansion of constitutional carry is unprecedented.

00:15:46.000 The expansion of shell issue- In recent years, yeah.

00:15:50.000 I mean, the past 30 years?

00:15:52.000 You know, in the 80s, you couldn't get guns.

00:15:54.000 And it wasn't until 2008, the Supreme Court, I think it was Heller, it was a Heller versus DC, when they were like, actually, it is an individual right to keeping bare arms, you know, outside of your home and stuff like that.

00:16:03.000 So, we're winning on that.

00:16:05.000 All that.

00:16:06.000 In New York, you struggle.

00:16:07.000 In blue, dense blue areas, life is a struggle.

00:16:10.000 They're releasing criminals into the cities.

00:16:12.000 There's an increase in violent crime.

00:16:13.000 People are getting pushed in front of trains.

00:16:14.000 You come out to West Virginia, you got no problems.

00:16:17.000 Crime is down.

00:16:18.000 It's lower than the national average.

00:16:19.000 Haven't seen one crackhead since I've been here from New York.

00:16:22.000 And they do have drug problems in West Virginia.

00:16:24.000 You know, they do have opiate problems.

00:16:26.000 But I didn't know this.

00:16:28.000 I actually thought crime was fairly bad here.

00:16:30.000 And then we had, I think it was Riley Moore talking about it, I pulled up the stats.

00:16:33.000 Below average crime in West Virginia.

00:16:35.000 Statewide in all jurisdictions is below average.

00:16:38.000 So if you want to live in New York where they're releasing criminals and justifying it, where they're allowing lewd and lascivious performances, advocating for people to terminate their kids or sterilize their kids, those things all result in the destruction of that population.

00:16:49.000 Meanwhile, in red states, they're doing things that allow the individual to thrive and to flourish.

00:16:53.000 You can't even have pizza.

00:16:54.000 Why is this agenda, is it Agenda 2030? They're trying to create like mega forests. They're

00:17:01.000 trying to like re-naturalize large segments of earth and not have humans go there. Like no more

00:17:06.000 human footprints in these big forested areas. They want people away from like the out the 0.67

00:17:12.000 whatever you would call this, the rural areas. And they want to pack people into these mega cities.

00:17:18.000 I don't know, I'm not speaking for everybody.

00:17:20.000 Yeah, but a 15-minute city is not a megacity.

00:17:23.000 It's a small pod city.

00:17:24.000 Yeah, where everything's 15 minutes away.

00:17:26.000 Yeah, where everyone's like- The hospital, your grocery store, everything you would need.

00:17:30.000 A 15-minute city is not going to be 20 million people in one circular city.

00:17:34.000 It's going to be small pod cities all over the place.

00:17:37.000 But the reason why that's bad too is it's easier to shut down when it's a small city.

00:17:41.000 Well, exactly.

00:17:42.000 Well, I don't trust these people at all anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

00:17:45.000 To wrap it all up with a nice little bow, who cares who they like and don't like?

00:17:49.000 They do bad things.

00:17:50.000 Dude, rural life is nice.

00:17:51.000 I'm really starting to love it.

00:17:52.000 Well, you know, it's funny because everybody talks about Texas.

00:17:55.000 I remember Ian, you were just like, oh, you know, Texas and Joe Rogan, people are moving there. 0.96

00:17:59.000 And the reason why Texas is good is because it's for fat people. 0.82

00:18:01.000 There's like a CVS in every corner. 0.90

00:18:04.000 There's a McDonald's.

00:18:05.000 And so it's like, yeah, I love the rural life too.

00:18:07.000 But I kind of like that I can just like go to the Walmart or buy my Tuck friendly bathing suit at Target and my Big Mac.

00:18:12.000 All within half a mile.

00:18:14.000 I want to pull up this tweet from the DeSantis War Room.

00:18:18.000 My personal opinion is slightly negative on this tweet.

00:18:24.000 I think it is cringe.

00:18:26.000 I think DeSantis' team is correct.

00:18:30.000 On the political point of this video, they deserve the credit.

00:18:33.000 Their criticisms are fair. 0.69

00:18:35.000 But man, you guys ready for this?

00:18:38.000 They tweeted to wrap up Pride Month.

00:18:40.000 Let's hear from the politician who did more than any other Republican to celebrate it.

00:18:44.000 Here we go.

00:18:47.000 Oh, can you fix the audio?

00:18:48.000 Yeah, try it now.

00:18:50.000 Nope.

00:18:50.000 Wait, there we go.

00:18:52.000 I will do everything in my power to protect our LGBTQ citizens.

00:19:00.000 If Caitlyn Jenner were to walk into Trump Tower and want to use the bathroom, you would be fine with her using any bathroom she chooses. 0.97

00:19:08.000 That is correct.

00:19:08.000 In the future, can transgender women compete in this universe?

00:19:13.000 Yes.

00:19:15.000 Sike! 0.99

00:19:16.000 Man, it's growing on me.

00:19:32.000 I cannot think of anything more horrifying.

00:19:35.000 It really has shut down drag.

00:19:38.000 Just produced some of the harshest, most draconian laws that literally threaten trans existence.

00:19:45.000 Congratulations, Robby Sanders.

00:19:47.000 Mission accomplished.

00:19:48.000 You win!

00:19:48.000 🎵 I can't do it.

00:20:06.000 I- I'm- I'm- Look, look, look.

00:20:07.000 I will do everything!

00:20:08.000 I like the music.

00:20:10.000 I think the point being made is correct.

00:20:13.000 I don't, I am not as critical as Trump for, you know, in the past when he held up the LGBT flag and all that stuff.

00:20:20.000 He is not talking about what we are currently seeing.

00:20:22.000 He was talking about other things.

00:20:23.000 There are many people that we are friends of and fans of that previously did align themselves with the traditional LGBT stuff and Trump I believe it was correct to be like, hey, those people are good.

00:20:33.000 They're going to vote for us.

00:20:34.000 What we're seeing now is very, very different.

00:20:36.000 To smear him over that, I think is wrong, but Trump absolutely was not as harsh.

00:20:41.000 Ron DeSantis is absolutely going after this in the culture war more so than any other leader.

00:20:46.000 But the American Psycho bit and the Chad meme stuff, it's just, it's, it's too, like, if they took that out and just showed clips of DeSantis, like, pointing to the press and, like, answering questions with news articles, I'd give it an A+.

00:21:00.000 The weird meme things is too much like, I'm with it!

00:21:03.000 Ho ho ho, kids! 1.00

00:21:05.000 I like it.

00:21:05.000 I have a preference for Trump over DeSantis, but I like this video.

00:21:09.000 I think it's good.

00:21:09.000 Do you like it?

00:21:10.000 It's catchy, yeah.

00:21:11.000 I like it over the top.

00:21:12.000 Yeah.

00:21:13.000 The music works for sure.

00:21:15.000 They only need to show Brad Pitt's face once.

00:21:18.000 They showed it twice.

00:21:19.000 And American Psycho.

00:21:20.000 Yeah, the second shot of the Psycho.

00:21:22.000 I just, it's like, is he trying to align himself with being a psychopath?

00:21:27.000 No, it's very Gen Z. So the Patrick Bateman, the American Psycho memes, those are big on TikTok and on Gen Z. So it's very Gen Z-esque. 0.64

00:21:36.000 I guess I'm just not hip.

00:21:37.000 You're the one that stuck with it.

00:21:38.000 But that's my point.

00:21:40.000 Rhonda Sanders is older than me.

00:21:42.000 Why is he trying to... Are the kids going to be like, wow, he's so cool.

00:21:46.000 He's like me.

00:21:46.000 But they're not going to vote for him anyways.

00:21:49.000 Statistically, Gen Z just doesn't turn out. 1.00

00:21:52.000 Are you Gen Z?

00:21:52.000 Yeah.

00:21:53.000 You're going to vote for him, right?

00:21:54.000 No.

00:21:55.000 Would you vote for him if it wasn't Trump?

00:21:57.000 No.

00:21:58.000 Really?

00:21:58.000 Who's your top contenders right now?

00:22:01.000 I don't know.

00:22:01.000 I don't know, to be honest.

00:22:03.000 I have a preference for Trump at the moment.

00:22:05.000 What about Vivek?

00:22:06.000 I do like Vivek a lot.

00:22:08.000 And Robert F. Kennedy Jr.?

00:22:11.000 RFK I love because he challenges the system, but he's still anti-2A.

00:22:18.000 But I will support him just because I think he has an important message.

00:22:22.000 He still is a Democrat, so if you leave a Republican, you're not going to like him.

00:22:27.000 This Trump stuff, I didn't know that Trump was all in on the inviting... See, this is the thing.

00:22:33.000 If someone had asked him, are you okay with letting a trans political movement indoctrinate children into becoming trans and having sex surgeries, he probably would have been like, no.

00:22:43.000 Like, what are you talking about? 0.95

00:22:44.000 Of course, that's crazy.

00:22:45.000 This is stuff from back in 2015.

00:22:47.000 He didn't see it coming.

00:22:49.000 I mean, remember, whenever he debated Palin, Joe Biden was against gay marriage.

00:22:53.000 Everyone's opinion shifts over time, especially if they're Tuck Friendly?

00:22:57.000 political cohorts changed their opinion and I think we have to give Trump a lot

00:23:02.000 of credit when he was talking in 2015 no one knew exactly where it was going some

00:23:06.000 people could have predicted that we'd be selling gender-affirming bathing suits 0.93

00:23:10.000 to children in Target but not a lot of people. Tuck friendly? Those are for adults

00:23:15.000 it's just gender affirming when it's for children. To what Ian said it's like

00:23:19.000 listen I love the pride flag because now I know if I'm on like a street I know

00:23:24.000 which are the gay bars. 0.94

00:23:26.000 Oh, that's a gay bar.

00:23:26.000 So I think, you know, that's good that we should have pride flags.

00:23:28.000 I'm not, like, against, you know, canceling the pride flag.

00:23:31.000 But what does a pride flag symbolize?

00:23:33.000 The only difference between me and a gay person or a straight person and a gay person is their sexual preference. 0.88

00:23:39.000 So this flag basically indicates your sexual preference.

00:23:42.000 Why does that need to be in a school?

00:23:44.000 Why does that need to be on a flag?

00:23:46.000 Well, I mean, listen, you want to have that on a flag?

00:23:49.000 Go ahead.

00:23:49.000 You want to do butt stuff and have a flag for it?

00:23:51.000 Actually, go ahead.

00:23:53.000 But why are we going to put it in the kindergarten classroom?

00:23:55.000 That's where and I think even though they're kind of trolling Trump, I think Trump, like you said, would probably have that same feeling like obviously gay people exist, but I just don't want you grooming my children. 1.00

00:24:03.000 Yeah, right.

00:24:03.000 I also think just both the Trump and DeSantis teams on social media, especially on Twitter, are really cringe.

00:24:08.000 It's just getting too much.

00:24:10.000 The internet is so cringe right now with Trump and DeSantis.

00:24:13.000 Dude, I just... Just stop.

00:24:16.000 Look, if this really worked for Gen Z, I stand corrected.

00:24:19.000 If the kids on TikTok are watching this video and now they're inspired to vote for DeSantis... They're not going to.

00:24:24.000 Alright.

00:24:25.000 But I like the production value of it.

00:24:27.000 I think it's good.

00:24:28.000 I don't think it was made by them either.

00:24:29.000 They're reposting Proud Elephant.

00:24:31.000 I'm just like...

00:24:33.000 It's it's getting I don't know, man.

00:24:35.000 It's cringe.

00:24:37.000 It's cringe on both sides.

00:24:38.000 Yeah.

00:24:39.000 But I think it's Trump and DeSantis influence.

00:24:41.000 What's what's gonna happen, though, is the Trump influencers and the DeSantis influencers are just gonna kill themselves.

00:24:46.000 And we're gonna have the same outcome of 2020 probably.

00:24:49.000 They're gonna nuke each other in the primary, then refuse to vote for each other.

00:24:52.000 That's what we need is the Trump-DeSantis get-along meme, where they grab arms and they're like, together, strong.

00:24:58.000 I think they should just fight in the Coliseum.

00:25:01.000 Oh, that would be good.

00:25:01.000 Winner gets the nomination.

00:25:04.000 I won't vote for DeSantis.

00:25:07.000 If he apologizes, has his team apologize and take down that deepfake video, then he's back on my list.

00:25:13.000 But it's like, at this point, we're over a month out.

00:25:16.000 I don't know if it's... He probably didn't even approve that.

00:25:19.000 Doesn't matter.

00:25:20.000 How hard would it be for him to be like, right away, I didn't approve of that.

00:25:24.000 Take it down.

00:25:25.000 That was wrong.

00:25:26.000 Sorry about that, guys.

00:25:27.000 That's all.

00:25:28.000 Five seconds.

00:25:29.000 If he put out a video and you and if they just delete here's the thing if they delete the tweet

00:25:33.000 and then put up a tweet saying we deleted that video because it had deepfakes

00:25:37.000 Ron was unhappy that it that it was put up without his approval it is no longer you know

00:25:41.000 Is your issue with the dishonesty of the deepfake?

00:25:45.000 So for almost a decade the media has been lying about every single thing Trump has ever done

00:25:54.000 And it's more than lying.

00:25:55.000 It's one thing when you have these political videos that are like, did you know that, you know, John Smith voted for the Hating Puppies Act?

00:26:04.000 Or like, you know, Alex Stein voted against the We Love Puppies bill.

00:26:08.000 Why doesn't he love puppies?

00:26:09.000 It's like, oh, that bill had nothing to do with puppies.

00:26:12.000 Like, we get it, it's manipulation.

00:26:14.000 That's annoying, it's bad, and everybody hates it.

00:26:17.000 With Trump, it was even worse.

00:26:18.000 They were editing videos out of context, lying about his quotes, and I spend almost the better part of a decade constantly talking to everybody saying, that's not true, that never happened.

00:26:29.000 And it is annoying, and I hate having to do it all the time.

00:26:32.000 And then Ron DeSantis comes out with a video, his team did, where they made deepfake images of Trump hugging and kissing Fauci.

00:26:41.000 And so now it's just like, all of that stuff I'm angry about, they just decided to one-up it, so I'm pissed.

00:26:46.000 Yeah.

00:26:47.000 I think it's bad precedent, too, right?

00:26:48.000 Like, we're gonna have a Republican candidate attack another Republican candidate by fabricating something.

00:26:53.000 Like, that would never work for journalism.

00:26:55.000 Why are we allowing it to stand for social media?

00:26:57.000 Because otherwise we just open the door for it.

00:26:59.000 I would be a hypocrite if I said, ah, it's no big deal, because I've been complaining about the media lying about Trump non-stop the entire time.

00:27:06.000 Now, don't get me wrong, people are like, yeah, but Trump lies about DeSantis, and I'm like, and he should not, but he did not create fake images to smear Ron DeSantis.

00:27:13.000 Well, he kind of did, and again, I have a preference for Trump, again.

00:27:18.000 What did Trump create?

00:27:19.000 He didn't, no, he didn't do an AI, but they were posting photos of the empty DeSantis booth, saying nobody came by all day, but that wasn't the case, and they ended up getting community noted on it.

00:27:29.000 It's all dishonest, and I think on both sides it's wrong.

00:27:32.000 And I hate all of it, and the Trump camp shouldn't be posting misleading things, but it is substantially worse to have someone go onto a computer and create several different iterations of fake images to trick people into thinking a thing happened that didn't happen.

00:27:46.000 Well, to be fair, and I'm not trying to be contrarian or white knight for DeSantis, I love Donald Trump.

00:27:53.000 But Donald Trump was If they didn't do that, the video's fine.

00:27:57.000 I mean, I know those are artistic. I agree with the point.

00:27:59.000 I know I mean they were kind of made even though they used a

00:28:02.000 fake artificial Photo they were making a true point, so it's kind of I know

00:28:07.000 I'm just saying that to be contrarian But they didn't do that the videos fine. Yeah, but instead

00:28:13.000 They do it I say, hey, that's not cool, you should take that down.

00:28:18.000 And then they attack me for it.

00:28:19.000 And I'm just like, okay, these people are disingenuous.

00:28:22.000 Like, how about you prove that you're better than all of the BS we've been dealing with?

00:28:28.000 Is Trump posting out of context clips or whatever?

00:28:31.000 Like every other politician always does and we all despise it?

00:28:34.000 Okay, that's really bad and I'm annoyed by it.

00:28:35.000 He's as bad as all the rest of them.

00:28:37.000 Did DeSantis just do worse than all of them?

00:28:39.000 Great. 0.99

00:28:39.000 All the politicians are at baseline lying pieces of trash and DeSantis is one degree below them. 0.99

00:28:44.000 That's where I'm at. 0.98

00:28:45.000 So, you know, all they got to do is delete the tweet and be like, we shouldn't have done that.

00:28:48.000 And I'll say, OK, OK, guys, because I got to look this video.

00:28:51.000 They're right.

00:28:52.000 Ron DeSantis has has really done a lot as it pertains to the culture war and in protecting kids and and putting up barriers to protect the cultural values and the moral values that we do have.

00:29:03.000 And that's a winning position.

00:29:05.000 That's fantastic.

00:29:05.000 It's better than Trump.

00:29:06.000 He's got a lot to go after Trump on in terms of the primary.

00:29:09.000 But they're certainly not doing themselves any favor with this current press team.

00:29:13.000 They seem to be just digging a hole for him.

00:29:15.000 No, and he's a young man.

00:29:16.000 I don't know why he's making this push now.

00:29:18.000 I think he, I guess maybe he sees blood in the water.

00:29:20.000 Maybe like a shark right now.

00:29:21.000 I think he sees Trump as vulnerable.

00:29:23.000 You see Candace Owens tweeted that he's done?

00:29:25.000 Who, DeSantis?

00:29:26.000 Yeah, I saw that.

00:29:26.000 Candace Owens said that he's done.

00:29:28.000 Let me pull that tweet up.

00:29:29.000 Yeah, but I don't think they're going to stop trying to investigate Trump.

00:29:32.000 I mean, I don't think they're not.

00:29:33.000 I mean, it's never going to stop.

00:29:34.000 They're going to find something.

00:29:35.000 I mean, it's just it's going to never any cavalcade of charges to try to stop him from running.

00:29:41.000 I think it's going to win.

00:29:42.000 I think that there will be a time.

00:29:43.000 And I know Trump says he'll fight till the end or whatever, but I think there'll be a time where they'll say, hey, I mean, this is just pure speculation where maybe he does get in trouble for a crime.

00:29:53.000 And I think they're kind of laying the groundwork for Biden to get in trouble for a similar crime.

00:29:57.000 And then maybe they both get pardoned.

00:29:58.000 So Candace Owens tweeted, sorry to say, sorry to the say, sorry to the say it, but the DeSantis campaign was dead on arrival and it's time to admit it.

00:30:07.000 Tons of mistakes.

00:30:09.000 Needed to be more upfront about his intention to run.

00:30:11.000 Doesn't come across as honest and he's boring.

00:30:13.000 You can say it shouldn't matter, but it does.

00:30:15.000 He also needed someone more like Kaylee McEnany rather than Patty Christina Pasha running comms. 0.96

00:30:21.000 The influencers that are still cheerleading for him are those that recently moved to his state and want to reap the benefits for standing firm beside him through his inevitable loss.

00:30:31.000 I'm not knocking the influencer hustle, just calling it as I see it.

00:30:34.000 They know he can't win either.

00:30:35.000 Also, their weird takeover of their community notes gives people a fact-checker vibe.

00:30:39.000 Sometimes the notes they add don't actually debunk anything, getting very Snopes-like.

00:30:44.000 Jenna Alice says, Candace probably consulted President Jeb for this spot on take.

00:30:49.000 Candace says, When you authored this tweet, did you think it was funny, clever, interesting?

00:30:53.000 Generally interested in your thought process on this.

00:30:55.000 Honestly, chat GPT could have come up with something better.

00:30:58.000 Highlighting that one just because, like, Is this it?

00:31:02.000 Consulting with Jeb to criticize the DeSantis campaign?

00:31:04.000 His polls are tanking.

00:31:05.000 I'm just tired of the infighting.

00:31:07.000 Like, I just, I don't understand why this is the conversation we're having.

00:31:11.000 I think it's a legitimate conversation to have should we allow or permit faked images to be used in any sort of campaign setting.

00:31:19.000 I think that's a good question for journalism, for integrity, but generally, like, I am tired of Republicans fight each other.

00:31:26.000 Like, just come up with something interesting to say about policy.

00:31:29.000 That's actually all I need right now.

00:31:30.000 I don't care if your staffs hate each other.

00:31:33.000 I don't care about any of that.

00:31:34.000 Because what I want is someone, the person who is leading policy conversation for me right now is RFK Jr.

00:31:40.000 And he's a Democrat.

00:31:41.000 So what are the Republicans doing?

00:31:43.000 It's a waste of energy.

00:31:44.000 He's gone in worse stances.

00:31:46.000 Sure, but he's a Democrat.

00:31:47.000 He's not going to have the same chance.

00:31:48.000 Alex and I both had to preface.

00:31:50.000 We're like, I swear, we love Trump.

00:31:52.000 But, you know, because it's terrifying.

00:31:55.000 They become very culty, especially on the influencer side and online.

00:31:59.000 They're a little rabid.

00:32:01.000 I have no worries about Trump supporters.

00:32:04.000 The DeSantis people are ravenous. 0.98

00:32:06.000 I think they both are.

00:32:07.000 I've gotten it from both sides because I get accused of being paid by both of them.

00:32:10.000 I think they're both pretty, pretty vile.

00:32:13.000 Certainly, Trump has his pitbulls that are, you know, yelling.

00:32:18.000 But, like, When I, when, when, like, I don't know how to describe it.

00:32:23.000 We've been doing this for a long time.

00:32:24.000 I've been critical of Trump on a lot of things.

00:32:26.000 People got really mad at me when I said that he lost in 2020. 0.99

00:32:29.000 And they were like, you're crazy.

00:32:30.000 And then sure enough, Trump was never inaugurated. 0.96

00:32:32.000 Like they're like, it'll, in March, it'll come.

00:32:34.000 But it is nowhere near as bad. 1.00

00:32:36.000 Like having, having people be like, yeah, Tim's an idiot, but it's okay. 1.00

00:32:40.000 Because I say these things versus the DeSantis people. 0.99

00:32:42.000 Like, yo, I put out a tweet about Trump doing something wrong and I'll get Trump supporters being like, yeah, I hear you.

00:32:48.000 I put out a tweet about DeSantis and I get a hundred tweets instantly of people insulting me.

00:32:52.000 And I'm just like, dude, all you're doing is making it worse for DeSantis.

00:32:56.000 Maybe that's their intention.

00:32:57.000 They're just trying to hurt him. 0.79

00:32:58.000 This is why I don't think the fighting will ever stop because, I mean, politics is just Hollywood for ugly people. 0.99

00:33:03.000 So they're going to continue to create a way to fight with each other to get more clout or get more clicks.

00:33:09.000 I mean, that's why they always put in these fake bills that are never going to get passed.

00:33:12.000 So I think that's like, to be honest, DeSantis probably loves this now, this fighting.

00:33:17.000 I mean, I'm just once again speculating that, because now we just talk about him.

00:33:21.000 Now Ron DeSantis is on the same level as Trump, so it kind of helps to start... But he's not.

00:33:25.000 That's the point we're making is his polls have been cut in half.

00:33:28.000 Well, yeah, I know, but I'm just saying he has the cachet that he's a threat to Trump.

00:33:31.000 Trump does seem a little threatened.

00:33:33.000 Here's what I think.

00:33:34.000 I think Ron could be the frontrunner right now if he had a good press team.

00:33:40.000 Despite the fact that he was hemming and hawing about whether he was going to run, his policy says enough.

00:33:46.000 Like, what he's done in Florida, he is probably the best politician in terms of leadership that we have in this country.

00:33:53.000 And then his press team comes out and just keeps setting fires over and over again.

00:33:56.000 And for whatever reason, they aren't fixing it and they think it's good.

00:34:00.000 I don't get it.

00:34:01.000 I would agree with that.

00:34:03.000 Well, Veep, the show Veep on HBO, that's like a documentary.

00:34:06.000 Like really, I'm telling you, the people that are working in these staffs, even the high people that I meet with, you know, that run Marjories or any politician, these people aren't that exceptional, Tim.

00:34:15.000 They're all just like normal people.

00:34:17.000 I mean, I'm not, I'm just being honest.

00:34:18.000 So they're just trying to figure it out.

00:34:20.000 This is probably Christina's first presidential campaign.

00:34:23.000 So they don't have any idea what the hell they're doing.

00:34:25.000 I mean, I don't think someone like, I don't think Michael Malice would take a job doing something like that with them.

00:34:30.000 He would with the Libertarian Party or whatever, but they need a Michael Malice.

00:34:33.000 Yeah, Michael would be good for them, yeah.

00:34:35.000 Like, I don't think he would work with the Santas, maybe if the price is right, whatever.

00:34:39.000 I don't, you know, Michael being an anarchist, he might ideologically say, I'm not interested.

00:34:43.000 But for the Libertarian Party, that was the thing, that he was gonna be the press secretary.

00:34:46.000 Someone like Michael Malice is so culturally, historically, and press savvy, If the DeSantis campaign were to hire someone of his caliber right when they started, he'd be the frontrunner.

00:34:57.000 Yes.

00:34:57.000 No question.

00:34:58.000 And he's snarky.

00:34:59.000 I mean, Mal should be a great mouthpiece. 1.00

00:34:59.000 He's good. 1.00

00:35:02.000 And he's a good person.

00:35:03.000 Right.

00:35:03.000 He's a really good person.

00:35:05.000 Apparently a great actor, too.

00:35:06.000 He just did an episode of Normal World.

00:35:08.000 Oh yeah, I saw that clip.

00:35:10.000 Yes, we were on that.

00:35:11.000 Everybody check it out.

00:35:12.000 Actually, do not check out Normal World.

00:35:13.000 Go to Primetime with Alex Titan right now.

00:35:15.000 Do not subscribe to any other Blaze show.

00:35:17.000 Do not mention any other shows while I'm on TimCast.

00:35:20.000 Do not mention.

00:35:21.000 Get your super chats in.

00:35:22.000 Get your super chats in.

00:35:24.000 Tim, would you consider ever getting into politics at this stage?

00:35:28.000 No.

00:35:29.000 Do you have any idea how much power I would have to give up?

00:35:35.000 That's a Lex Luthor quote.

00:35:37.000 I'm the same way.

00:35:38.000 We go down to Congress, we do these shows, and I can feel the invite.

00:35:41.000 They would be happy to have newscasters come and support the campaigns.

00:35:46.000 I don't want it.

00:35:47.000 I don't want that.

00:35:48.000 I don't want to go take the title.

00:35:50.000 I don't need the title to change the world.

00:35:52.000 It's also very disheartening getting involved in politics on the campaign level because you realize that a lot of these people are just kind of circle jerking each other and that's why nothing gets done. 0.98

00:36:05.000 And by that you mean it's a circle of jerks who are patting each other on the back. 0.98

00:36:09.000 Changing directional momentum. 1.00

00:36:12.000 It's just a bunch of guys all patting each other on the back.

00:36:14.000 You mean it's like a fraternity?

00:36:16.000 Because it kind of felt like college when I was at Congress.

00:36:19.000 Yeah, isn't it funny?

00:36:23.000 Seriously, when you're walking through the halls of Congress, it's like college dormy.

00:36:26.000 Yeah, no really it's like you walk through Longfellow Hall and those halls are it's very weird though because I actually did an official tour and I don't know if I said this last time but as soon as you go on the official Capitol tour they bring you in for like this 20 minute video that gives you the history and like within the first minute it's like these are hallowed grounds that was built on the backs of slaves like Like, literally, immediately they make you feel so guilty.

00:36:48.000 But then, after I watch that video, then I'm walking around everywhere in D.C.

00:36:51.000 for the rest of my trip, I'm like, oh my gosh, this is Built by a Slave. 0.90

00:36:53.000 This is Built by a Slave. 0.88

00:36:54.000 It is, it has this kind of creepy, old college, weird feel.

00:36:58.000 The funny thing about, what was it, like, what building were you mentioning?

00:37:02.000 Longfellow.

00:37:03.000 Longfellow.

00:37:03.000 Yeah, I think it's Longfellow.

00:37:04.000 There's like a little market where you go in and you can grab stuff and then, like, scan a card or whatever to pay for it.

00:37:09.000 There's like a Subway and a Baskin-Robbins.

00:37:14.000 Walking around and then it's like the rival team is across the hall and they're like, that's where AOC is.

00:37:20.000 And I'm just like, this is so childish.

00:37:22.000 Well, the George Santos, I remember going there and there was literally people camping out.

00:37:26.000 CNN, when he first got in there.

00:37:27.000 Camping out in those hallways and just the vibes in there.

00:37:30.000 It's just very weird.

00:37:31.000 I love him.

00:37:32.000 I love George Santos.

00:37:33.000 I like Vish.

00:37:34.000 I stan George Santos.

00:37:37.000 What's George Santos all about?

00:37:39.000 He's like our Anna Delvey.

00:37:42.000 I think he's just kind of like... I love him!

00:37:44.000 Didn't he say something like, I didn't say I was Jewish, I said I was Jew-ish.

00:37:50.000 I'm kind of Jewish, I kind of vibe with that too, but no, you know, there's this weird thing now where the conservative movement is the counterculture, so George Santos being like an openly gay man that is like, you know, he's worn drag, but he's like, did he really though?

00:38:03.000 He denied it, didn't he?

00:38:04.000 Who cares?

00:38:04.000 Well, who cares?

00:38:05.000 I've worn a dress, whatever. 0.93

00:38:06.000 But my point is, it's like, he's the counterculture because he's like the gay guy that's not for the gay agenda. 0.53

00:38:12.000 So that's like, I think that's why he's successful or fits in because he's like that.

00:38:17.000 He did a review of the White House Correspondence Center fashion on Twitter.

00:38:21.000 It was funny.

00:38:23.000 It was fresh, like apparently he's interested in it.

00:38:25.000 And it's like something that conservatives sometimes need because they have this reputation for being too buttoned up.

00:38:30.000 His tweets are great, too, but if you're gonna slam George Santos for being a liar, why don't you get the rest of them in Congress? 0.61

00:38:36.000 Yeah, they all lie, yeah.

00:38:37.000 I wanna jump to this story here, because we'll talk about cultural stuff.

00:38:40.000 This one is... it's terrifying and funny at the same time.

00:38:43.000 The Postmillennial.

00:38:44.000 Pornhub pulls out of Virginia over age verification law.

00:38:47.000 Whoa.

00:38:48.000 What?

00:38:49.000 Wait, wait, what?

00:38:51.000 Are you... hold on there a minute.

00:38:54.000 They blocked users in Virginia from accessing the site in reaction to the state's new age verification law.

00:38:59.000 According to 8News, the new law, which takes effect July 1st, would require porn websites to verify users in the state are at least 18 before they can access adult content.

00:39:08.000 So instead of verifying age, they were just like, then you don't get any porn.

00:39:13.000 They did the same thing in Utah in early May.

00:39:16.000 They are so desperate to show children adult images, they boycott the state when they can't?

00:39:22.000 Well, I don't think that's it.

00:39:23.000 I just, because they don't want to deal with any of the legal ramifications and having to certify all these people, because then now they're liable if they show kids porn.

00:39:31.000 So I just think that's why they do it, because the law is even.

00:39:33.000 So what you're saying is Pornhub has no problem operating in the state if it means children can access their content.

00:39:33.000 Right.

00:39:40.000 Well, yeah, I mean, they want kids to access it, but they don't want to have to risk the legality.

00:39:44.000 It's too much work for Pornhub to have to make sure kids aren't using their services.

00:39:47.000 That's fair.

00:39:48.000 Yeah, I agree with that statement.

00:39:49.000 Yes, it's too much.

00:39:50.000 It's not cost beneficial for them.

00:39:52.000 In May, when they blocked Utah, because Utah made the same, you have to be able to show your driver's license or verify ID.

00:39:57.000 They're like, this is crazy.

00:39:59.000 Having to show your ID every time you come to Pornhub, it's just not going to protect children.

00:40:04.000 Like that was their actual complaint.

00:40:06.000 They said that this is a ridiculous way to handle it. 0.67

00:40:08.000 So like strip clubs that don't check IDs? 0.70

00:40:10.000 Yeah, but Tim, we're joking about this, but the United Nations came out and saying they want to get rid of age of consent laws.

00:40:15.000 So it's like they really do want to show kids adult content.

00:40:18.000 And then when we talk about porn up, like, you know, they say it's so crazy for a kid under 18 to look at porn, which I agree with, but like a 14 year old can get a mastectomy.

00:40:26.000 I mean, it's just, it's so weird.

00:40:29.000 18 year old, you know, 17 year old can't get a tattoo, but they can get gender reassignment surgery.

00:40:34.000 They're chanting that they're coming for our children.

00:40:37.000 Yes.

00:40:38.000 And then when people are like, hey, did you hear what they said?

00:40:39.000 They're like, no, no, they didn't say it.

00:40:41.000 They didn't say it, but you know, they do say it all the time.

00:40:43.000 We say it every year.

00:40:44.000 It's our chant we always say.

00:40:46.000 It was just a joke.

00:40:48.000 No, we say it all the time, but this one time we actually didn't say it.

00:40:51.000 We just say it all the time.

00:40:53.000 Another weird twist in the Pornhub thing is that Louisiana also has an age verification law, but Pornhub never blocked them and did comply.

00:40:59.000 Really?

00:41:00.000 Did they?

00:41:01.000 Yeah.

00:41:01.000 And I don't know why that is.

00:41:02.000 They just said, okay, Louisiana.

00:41:04.000 It's because they're so backwards, they wouldn't be able to prosecute it or something. 1.00

00:41:07.000 Louisiana, I went to LSU, it is the wildest place.

00:41:09.000 Have you guys been any time in Louisiana?

00:41:11.000 Because it was the last state to change its drinking age laws from 18 to 21, they were like the last state to get federal funding for the roads.

00:41:18.000 So the roads and highways suck in New Orleans.

00:41:21.000 We're holding out, though. 0.94

00:41:22.000 Yeah, see, that's Louisiana. 0.98

00:41:23.000 It's like this thing, it's called Lag Nappy.

00:41:25.000 It's like a little extra.

00:41:26.000 They have this very nice kind of party atmosphere, but because of that, the city's run like trash, you know?

00:41:32.000 The whole state's just not run very well.

00:41:35.000 It's crazy to me.

00:41:36.000 We talked about this this past week.

00:41:39.000 There are tons of things you can't do in public that you can do online in public, which makes no sense.

00:41:45.000 There are tons of things we wouldn't allow someone to do at a brick-and-mortar establishment we allow them to do online, which makes no sense.

00:41:50.000 I think it's because... You can't walk into an adult bookstore, you get your ID checked.

00:41:55.000 You can't walk into a sex app, you get your ID checked.

00:41:58.000 Online, you can.

00:42:00.000 No ID check.

00:42:00.000 That's insane to me.

00:42:02.000 It should be that every porn website, or adult website, requires registration and verification before you can use it.

00:42:09.000 Sorry, that's just the way it works.

00:42:11.000 Well, there's an interesting discussion going on about Twitter in that regard, too, because you can create a Twitter account at 13, but they also allow porn on Twitter.

00:42:20.000 Hold on, hold on.

00:42:21.000 I think Twitter... So here's the technicality.

00:42:26.000 It's not so much Twitter's business.

00:42:28.000 If you go out into Times Square with a big photograph of porn, you'll get arrested.

00:42:36.000 So if you post porn on Twitter, where children can see it... It's illegal.

00:42:40.000 It should be the same crime.

00:42:43.000 I don't understand the argument for, yes, I understand you can't play videos of porn out in the public, but I should be able to play it in the public on Twitter where children can see it.

00:42:50.000 No, no, no, none of that.

00:42:51.000 None of that.

00:42:52.000 What do you think the remedy for that is?

00:42:54.000 Police enforcing the law?

00:42:56.000 Well, how would they enforce that?

00:42:57.000 They would see an account post the illegal content, then subpoena the company and say, under this law it's illegal, and a judge orders you to hand over the data of the individual.

00:43:08.000 Then they would go get a warrant.

00:43:10.000 They would go to the house and investigate, like any other criminal case.

00:43:14.000 Let me ask you a question.

00:43:16.000 A guy wearing a ski mask is handing out porn mags to people in Times Square.

00:43:21.000 How do they stop that?

00:43:22.000 They go there and arrest him.

00:43:24.000 It's rampant on Twitter though.

00:43:26.000 There's a lot of replies.

00:43:28.000 Hold on. Shoplifting is rampant in San Francisco because we're letting it be.

00:43:32.000 Just because we never enforce the law doesn't mean we just don't do it anymore.

00:43:36.000 We have to be like, yo, we gotta stop it.

00:43:38.000 We need more resources for cyber crimes though.

00:43:41.000 I was gonna say, do you think we need to expand cybercrime resources?

00:43:43.000 Because what you're saying with shoplifting, you send a police officer in person.

00:43:47.000 Like, do we have a gap in law enforcement where they are not trained to... It's not that.

00:43:55.000 Because many of these people post their own videos to the public under their own names.

00:44:00.000 It's that law enforcement and government can't keep up with technology.

00:44:04.000 So, like, they don't have a big enough presence on Twitter to catch these things?

00:44:07.000 No, it's that if you go to a cop and say, uh, if you go to a police officer, a police station right now, and say, there's a guy who lives a block away from here who is posting, he was showing pornographic images in public and children could see it, that cop's gonna go, whoa, okay, let's write this on, where was it?

00:44:24.000 It was on Twitter.

00:44:25.000 He'll go, oh, I don't care about that.

00:44:26.000 Yeah, but what's the difference?

00:44:28.000 Well, and I told you this before, Tim, but they I had a serious stalker who was talking me through Twitter, YouTube, harassing me.

00:44:38.000 No, he was not.

00:44:39.000 He wasn't funny.

00:44:42.000 It was a pretty serious stalker.

00:44:43.000 And the FBI ended up getting involved.

00:44:45.000 And I had an agent from the Cyber Crimes Unit who called me and he said, Have you tried calling Twitter and YouTube?

00:44:50.000 And I said, With all due respect, sir, if you think I could call Twitter or YouTube, You should not be working in cyber crimes.

00:44:56.000 And this was a federal agent.

00:44:58.000 FBI agent who said that.

00:44:59.000 You can't take a big poster of two adults having sex and put it in your front window for everyone in the world to walk past and see.

00:45:06.000 You can't do that.

00:45:06.000 Yeah, but Tim, my- If you want to legalize it, by all means, go to legislature and have them all vote to make that legal.

00:45:11.000 Yeah, but my buddy Cassidy Campbell and another guy, Alex Rosen, they do these predator poaching videos, Tim, and I'm sure you've seen those, where they'll go- in some cities the cops do get involved, but they'll show cops A whole cache of these are text messages.

00:45:23.000 This guy thinks he's messaging a 13-year-old kid and the cops, they have the evidence.

00:45:26.000 They'll say, oh, we can't touch it.

00:45:28.000 So I think it comes down to... Yeah, back to blue, baby.

00:45:30.000 Yeah, I know.

00:45:31.000 It comes down to, you know, are they actually going to follow through?

00:45:32.000 They'll give you a ticket for having a busted headlight that you didn't know about.

00:45:38.000 You're a day past your plate registration.

00:45:40.000 You'll get a ticket.

00:45:41.000 You'll be speeding.

00:45:42.000 You'll be under the limit, but they'll pull you over and give you a speeding ticket anyway.

00:45:45.000 These stories are rampant. 0.53

00:45:46.000 Everybody has some ridiculous story. 0.64

00:45:48.000 I knew a dude Yeah, because he didn't stop long enough.

00:45:51.000 right red light and they mailed him a a a blowing a red light ticket. Yeah, cuz he didn't

00:45:55.000 stop long enough. No, he did. Oh, they said that they thought he ran the light outright.

00:46:00.000 Yeah, they don't care when it comes to petty crime. They'll enforce it with a hammer when

00:46:05.000 it comes to COVID restrictions. They will lock you up hair salon owner right to jail. 1.00

00:46:10.000 You own a cafe in Minnesota and you open up for a couple days?

00:46:13.000 They hunted her down in Iowa to make sure, and this is the sheriff, to make sure she suffered.

00:46:18.000 Attila's gym?

00:46:19.000 You want to open your gym so people can exercise?

00:46:21.000 Because you disagree with the edict issued by the governor?

00:46:24.000 The cops will show up with smiles on their faces and arrest you.

00:46:27.000 But heaven forbid any one of these cops, when they're standing outside of a club that is doing a sex show that they've invited children to, the cops in Texas said, sorry, we won't do anything about that.

00:46:38.000 I think it's the difference of putting up, like, porn in a front window facing out onto the street and putting it on Twitter is that on Twitter it's parentally supervised.

00:46:47.000 Like, you're what?

00:46:48.000 A kid can't get internet without buying a router or buying a phone.

00:46:53.000 That's not true at all.

00:46:54.000 To kind of agree with what Ian's saying, though, there is a difference between posting a picture and then sending that posted picture directly to somebody, if that makes sense.

00:47:01.000 I'm not talking about that.

00:47:02.000 I'm saying if you post a tweet of porn, as many people do, I view that the exact same as taking a big sign with a porn picture and sticking it in the ground outside.

00:47:11.000 Anyone can see it.

00:47:12.000 A kid in a school library.

00:47:15.000 Well, then it's the school should be, you know... An argument over resources and an argument for public access.

00:47:21.000 Oh, yeah, it is.

00:47:22.000 No, it isn't.

00:47:23.000 No, it's not.

00:47:24.000 What?

00:47:24.000 If it costs a hundred bucks to get into something, then it's not public.

00:47:27.000 Okay, a kid who doesn't have bus fare is not the issue.

00:47:32.000 If you post it in public, you are granting access to public.

00:47:35.000 That's the issue.

00:47:36.000 Just because some kids can't get on Twitter doesn't mean it's not public.

00:47:39.000 It is public.

00:47:40.000 That's the argument.

00:47:41.000 It's not.

00:47:42.000 I don't know if it legally you would consider internet public.

00:47:44.000 It is.

00:47:45.000 It is.

00:47:46.000 It's literally and legally considered public.

00:47:48.000 It is legally public.

00:47:49.000 It's like a quasi for sure.

00:47:50.000 They've already ruled in court.

00:47:52.000 If it's public then how come a guy can shut it down?

00:47:55.000 You can't shut down a public park.

00:47:58.000 You need the government to do that.

00:47:59.000 But Elon can shut down Twitter.

00:48:03.000 Slow down there, Ian.

00:48:03.000 First, there's things called privately owned public spaces, where in New York, for instance, that's what Occupy Wall Street was all about.

00:48:10.000 And Chase Plaza and Deutsche Bank.

00:48:13.000 Privately owned, but public.

00:48:15.000 And so there were certain restrictions on what they could and couldn't do.

00:48:18.000 And so, once it got to a certain point of the protest, they couldn't shut it down.

00:48:21.000 Chase was smart and shut down their plaza instantly before any of that could happen.

00:48:25.000 Twitter is privately owned, but it's already been ruled a public space, hence politicians.

00:48:29.000 When they tweet, they create public forums.

00:48:31.000 They cannot block people.

00:48:32.000 Courts have already stated that.

00:48:34.000 Now I think this... I'm suing AOC.

00:48:36.000 Right, over this.

00:48:37.000 Because she blocked you and it's a public space, she doesn't have a right to do it. 0.99

00:48:40.000 It is in public, period.

00:48:42.000 It's not up for debate.

00:48:43.000 The courts have already said it.

00:48:44.000 So the issue is, law enforcement knows that adults are publishing images in public that children can get access to, but for some reason, they don't care.

00:48:55.000 They won't go anywhere near it.

00:48:56.000 Our society is in decay.

00:48:59.000 Go back 30 years and watch what happens if a guy would print out a big poster with people having sex on it and stand in the town center waving it at people.

00:49:11.000 Bad things would happen to that guy.

00:49:12.000 And he would get arrested.

00:49:13.000 Data proliferation.

00:49:15.000 We haven't been able to keep up.

00:49:16.000 You can make a hundred million copies of something now, but we don't have a hundred million copies of the cop.

00:49:20.000 We only have one cop.

00:49:21.000 So you need AI.

00:49:21.000 I think we need artificial intelligence to police social media.

00:49:25.000 I mean, you give me a better option.

00:49:27.000 No, I'd love to hear a better one.

00:49:28.000 That's terrible at distinguishing things, right?

00:49:30.000 Didn't we talk about this earlier?

00:49:31.000 It's better than no people.

00:49:32.000 Like zero people is even worse than AI.

00:49:34.000 The issue is not that we need a better system for it.

00:49:39.000 The issue is quite simply the culture.

00:49:41.000 Police will see it and go, meh.

00:49:45.000 How do you find out who did it, even?

00:49:47.000 Because a lot of the accounts are fake, or... So how about this?

00:49:50.000 If you sue Twitter, then you destroy Twitter.

00:49:52.000 How about this?

00:49:53.000 In all instances where an individual under their given name and photograph publish it, then the investigation is quite minimal.

00:50:03.000 You then go knock on their door and say, Mr. Smith, did you publish this image to your Twitter account?

00:50:10.000 You did?

00:50:11.000 Place your hands behind your back, you are under arrest for posting lewd images in public.

00:50:15.000 Did you know that in many states, if you have a gun, and that gun is in a position where a child could get access to it, that is a felony?

00:50:24.000 Yeah.

00:50:25.000 So like, if it's in your room, locked in the closet, oh, hold on there a minute, it's gotta be in a safe.

00:50:30.000 They have these child protection laws.

00:50:32.000 West Virginia, we already talked about it.

00:50:34.000 Open lewdness is illegal.

00:50:36.000 What about retweeting porn?

00:50:38.000 Should those people also be arrested?

00:50:40.000 That's an interesting question that we'll be up for.

00:50:42.000 That is kind of a gray area.

00:50:44.000 Well, that requires precedent and that's a normal process in the United States law.

00:50:48.000 A police officer will say, you published this image to your 10,000 followers.

00:50:54.000 They'll say, no, I retweeted something that was already public.

00:50:58.000 Then the argument becomes a guy was handing out pictures of porn in public, handed you

00:51:02.000 one and you held it up in the air for everyone to see, you are now in trouble.

00:51:05.000 With like, when data is leaked, like government leaks and things, and then people retweet

00:51:10.000 the data, like, are they committing the same felony that the person...

00:51:13.000 That's a whistleblower.

00:51:14.000 Because they're basically holding up the illegal.

00:51:15.000 No.

00:51:16.000 It's not illegal to share it, it's illegal to steal it.

00:51:18.000 So when it comes to like the Pentagon Papers, the question is, was it illegally obtained?

00:51:23.000 Well, there's whistleblower protections.

00:51:25.000 The news media committed no crime by publishing that information.

00:51:27.000 Tim, I want to make a point about the culture though.

00:51:30.000 And it's like, this is a more simple analogy, not just the fact that everybody's trying

00:51:34.000 to basically give kids gender reassignment surgery and make everybody get an abortion. 0.89

00:51:38.000 But just look at the change of our architecture from the 60s and 70s.

00:51:42.000 Brutalism. 0.99

00:51:42.000 I mean, it's this weird postmodern era of just crap. 0.99

00:51:46.000 Like, even the newest baseball stadium in Texas, we had the ballpark in Arlington built in, like, 99. 0.95

00:51:51.000 It's just beautiful, grandiose, epic ballpark.

00:51:55.000 The newest one they built, I forget, it's called Globe Life, or I forget what it's even called.

00:51:59.000 And it looks like a Costco.

00:52:00.000 I'm just saying, in the past 20 years, we've gone down when it comes to architecture.

00:52:05.000 Just imagine... Brutalism.

00:52:07.000 Everything's a white box. 1.00

00:52:08.000 And that's crap. 1.00

00:52:09.000 That's terrible for society. 1.00

00:52:10.000 There's no art.

00:52:12.000 But you know what it is?

00:52:13.000 I was talking to Seamus about it.

00:52:14.000 He was saying that before the internet and print, this was the art medium.

00:52:19.000 To see the great works was the buildings we would produce.

00:52:22.000 Then, as we move into newspaper and radio, art and creativity moved into those spaces, buildings started becoming less and less relevant in the discussion.

00:52:31.000 I think that's part of it.

00:52:32.000 I think it's also there's a lot of planned obsolescence that goes into that.

00:52:36.000 Yeah.

00:52:37.000 It's like to make everyone feel like there's no regional significance, right?

00:52:43.000 Like if you're in New York City, you can tell by the buildings and they're supposed to be different than the buildings that are in San Francisco, which are supposed to be different than the buildings that you might find in like A major city in Montana.

00:52:54.000 Whereas now you get major corporations that put up the same blank building everywhere so there's no sense of identity and therefore you can't cultivate any sort of regional pride.

00:53:04.000 And it's like when people build new houses, there's always problems, but houses built in like the 70s and 60s just last a test of time, it seems like.

00:53:10.000 So, there's something, there's like a degradation of the carpenters.

00:53:14.000 Like, look at this, the gargoyles and stuff outside of these buildings in New York City, they can't even repair them.

00:53:19.000 We don't even have the same people, the stonemasons that can even do that.

00:53:22.000 Plastering, which used to be like the big thing, there are very few true plastering crews left.

00:53:27.000 On the issue of porn, let me give you guys a very simple scenario.

00:53:31.000 If you want to post it to your Twitter account, your account has to be age verification locked.

00:53:37.000 That's it.

00:53:38.000 So, you will make a post, and if you publish it to people, now you're in trouble.

00:53:44.000 If, like, open to the public for children.

00:53:47.000 If you want to do adult content to make it safe and legal, you put an age restriction filter on it, and then if a kid comes across it, they can't access it.

00:53:56.000 And the only people who can are those who verify their accounts on Twitter.

00:54:00.000 I'll give you a real-world example.

00:54:01.000 You walk into a 7-Eleven back when I was a kid, and there were some magazines.

00:54:06.000 But those magazines were in black plastic.

00:54:08.000 You could not see the magazine, you could see the top, that it would say the name Hustler Playboy, but you'd like, oh man, you couldn't see it.

00:54:14.000 And kids weren't able to buy it, they'd be like, I can't sell you that.

00:54:17.000 So you couldn't actually open it up, it was wrapped, you couldn't see, you could only see it was a product.

00:54:21.000 So it was in public, but not displaying anything for kids to see.

00:54:25.000 What about if someone's sitting on a park bench with a Playboy, reading it, and there's a kid like 500, 100 feet away walking by?

00:54:32.000 Yeah, typically then a cop will be like, hey buddy, Come on, there are kids around here.

00:54:36.000 Put that away.

00:54:36.000 But if the kid walks up behind the guy and looks at the magazine over his shoulder, then typically someone will say, hey, buddy, put that thing away.

00:54:42.000 And ultimately, the kid would be the one that made the mistake.

00:54:46.000 Now you're talking about simple judicial discretion.

00:54:49.000 I guess the question is, is it illegal to have a Playboy open in a public park?

00:54:53.000 The question of legality is the interpretation of the judge.

00:54:56.000 A cop could say disorderly conduct for anything you do.

00:55:00.000 You can fart in public and a cop can be like, that's disorderly, you're under arrest.

00:55:03.000 And tell it to a judge. 0.60

00:55:04.000 The judge will then determine whether or not you actually violated that statute.

00:55:08.000 I know.

00:55:08.000 I got a felony for farting in public.

00:55:10.000 It was a gross fart.

00:55:11.000 It was really bad. 0.93

00:55:12.000 A lot of poop in that fart.

00:55:13.000 Oh, one of those.

00:55:14.000 Yeah, it was a really bad situation.

00:55:15.000 Like a horizontal fart?

00:55:16.000 Yeah, I went to jail for a long time.

00:55:18.000 I just got out.

00:55:18.000 A loud burst.

00:55:19.000 No, but I don't know.

00:55:22.000 I just got out.

00:55:23.000 When it comes to the porn stuff on the internet, I think that's kind of the The most cancerous thing of the reason why kids are so sexualized and I think that's why we have a lot of this and depressed Well, not just a depression but this sexual confusion because you look at like a trans person You might be attracted to boobs and then you see a penis because they go to a drag queen story time at a young age So I'm just saying we're over sexualizing our children and that's having just it's having an effect that we can't

00:55:51.000 You know, quantify or whatever.

00:55:52.000 We can't figure out what the hell that's going to equal because we don't have any past generations that were exposed to all this pornography.

00:55:57.000 We kind of do. 0.89

00:55:58.000 It's creating sexual dysfunction.

00:56:01.000 We're seeing that erectile dysfunction is skyrocketing among young men.

00:56:05.000 And testosterone's way down.

00:56:06.000 That could be plastics.

00:56:07.000 I think that's probably our diet and stuff like that.

00:56:09.000 But kids, human beings were never meant to be exposed to this level of information.

00:56:15.000 Period.

00:56:16.000 That, okay.

00:56:17.000 But I understand information access is a thing that we're going to have to learn to adapt with.

00:56:21.000 Children being able to get instant access to porn on Twitter?

00:56:24.000 That's a problem.

00:56:24.000 Mm-hmm.

00:56:25.000 That was an oversight of the 2000s.

00:56:27.000 2000 that people didn't realize when the internet arrived that they should be protecting kids brains from it.

00:56:33.000 Well, Ted Bundy said they should.

00:56:35.000 Ted Bundy said if you don't want your kids to end up like me, keep them away from porn.

00:56:38.000 I think the way Twitter should work is, the moment your account posts porn available to the public, you get an instant age verification.

00:56:45.000 That's why I'm talking about AI.

00:56:46.000 That you would use AI for something like that.

00:56:48.000 But it could fail.

00:56:49.000 But I think you could use AI to do that, because if a person's like, oops, I forgot, you don't want to throw them in prison for that, necessarily.

00:56:56.000 I forgot what?

00:56:57.000 I forgot to post 18 age verification on that on mine and you're like whoops I accidentally threw a playboy in front of a bunch of kids like what?

00:57:05.000 That's when you bring up like wanting to read a pornographic magazine in a park for me it's like but why do you want to if you're going to park we're presumably our children whoever like why?

00:57:14.000 Why are you doing that?

00:57:17.000 But the point I was making earlier is There is a reasonableness to enforcing the law that is upon the discretion of the officer.

00:57:24.000 It is unreasonable in my opinion that officers do not arrest the people who are engaging in these crimes.

00:57:29.000 Completely unreasonable.

00:57:30.000 It is unreasonable in my opinion, so...

00:57:35.000 If you get pulled over, and it's an honest mistake, and you weren't speeding that much, the reasonable thing to do is a warning, and cops do that a lot.

00:57:43.000 That's police discretion, and many officers do a good job.

00:57:47.000 I have had some negative encounters with police officers, as most people have, where one time I was not speeding, I got a ticket, cop told me to basically screw myself, and that got my license suspended.

00:57:57.000 That bothers me.

00:57:59.000 It bothers me that that kind of thing can exist.

00:58:01.000 Where a cop can screw your life up through no fault of your own, but we can't get him to arrest people who are exposing children to adult sex shows?

00:58:09.000 Like, that's ma- Like, I recognize- Pencils have erasers.

00:58:13.000 Bad cops exist and these things happen.

00:58:15.000 It's water under the bridge.

00:58:17.000 I'm like, okay, you know, these are things that are part of the system.

00:58:20.000 But why then do we struggle to stop this?

00:58:23.000 Because they are focused primarily on immediate public safety.

00:58:26.000 So like driving is a big part of it.

00:58:28.000 They don't want a car to hit a human and the human die.

00:58:30.000 Like the kids getting sexualized doesn't have like an immediate I just think our culture is shattered.

00:58:35.000 I think that it's the internet has ripped it to shreds.

00:58:37.000 There's no more unified sense of morality.

00:58:38.000 doesn't really have like a thing to stop right away. I mean, when you think about it, you realize

00:58:42.000 what's happening, then you can start to make the argument that we need to do some preventative

00:58:45.000 measures. But they're more interested in just like stopping violence. I just think our culture

00:58:50.000 is shattered. I think that it's the internet has ripped it to shreds. There's no more unified

00:58:56.000 sense of morality. And now among cops, for the most part, they're just like, I want to keep my

00:59:01.000 head down and stay out of it. So in Texas, famously, you had a drag show with kids, and there

00:59:06.000 and there were sexualized things going on in there and the cops were like, I ain't doing

00:59:09.000 anything about this.

00:59:10.000 And it's just like, yo, we can just Google the law and show you it's illegal.

00:59:14.000 And the cop's like, don't look at me.

00:59:15.000 I'm not getting involved.

00:59:16.000 That's insane.

00:59:17.000 Yeah, because cops are just going to follow orders from whoever is telling them the order, you know, whether it's like the chief or, you know, go down different levels.

00:59:23.000 So these cops aren't going to go out of their way to actually do any vigilante justice or stand up for what's right.

00:59:27.000 They're just going to literally follow procedure.

00:59:29.000 I'll tell you what will happen.

00:59:30.000 Check out this story from the Postmillennial.

00:59:32.000 Michigan House makes using wrong pronouns a felony.

00:59:35.000 The bill makes it a felony for someone to make an individual, quote, feel terrorized, frightened, or threatened, and is punishable by up to five years in prison and $10,000 fine.

00:59:45.000 They write, on Tuesday, Michigan State House passed a bill making it a felony.

00:59:49.000 HB 4474 is designed to replace Michigan's Ethnic Intimidation Act to expand categories of protected classes to include identity, gender identity, expression, and sexual orientation, and it passed 59 to 50.

00:59:59.000 It is not yet law, but I guarantee you.

01:00:04.000 Guarantee!

01:00:06.000 We will see.

01:00:07.000 If this passes, I'm not so sure that it will, but maybe, I mean, it's Michigan, you got, you know, I think Whitmer's still there, right?

01:00:13.000 You will see people arrested for this.

01:00:15.000 And you know why I have absolute confidence in saying that?

01:00:18.000 Because Jordan Peterson warned us, how many was it, seven or eight years ago, and then, in Canada, we have seen several instances where people have been criminally charged for using wrong pronouns.

01:00:29.000 I imagine this violates some sort of free First Amendment issue.

01:00:33.000 Like you can't tell me what I can and can't say to you.

01:00:38.000 That's my right to say whatever I want.

01:00:40.000 There might be, you know, I'm not saying that the person is not going to throw a punch if I if I anger them, and then they'll go to jail or whatever.

01:00:46.000 But that's like the essence of this nation.

01:00:50.000 The Supreme Court ruled on 303 Creative, this Christian web designer who said, under Colorado's anti-discrimination laws, I feel as though I would be compelled to make wedding websites for same-sex couples if they approach me about it, and I don't think that's fair.

01:01:09.000 And one of the things that came up in the decision today was, the justices wrote, Colorado, under the interpretation of the law Colorado currently has, they would compel this woman into speech that she doesn't agree with.

01:01:21.000 And so it's kind of similar to what you're saying.

01:01:22.000 I wonder if in some way there is already legal precedent that, you know, this is Michigan, so they can't necessarily take Colorado law, but if we have federal law that says you can't compel speech, like, at what point do you prioritize the First Amendment?

01:01:35.000 Maybe they would invalidate it.

01:01:36.000 What they're saying with this is that if you, it's like, I'm pretty sure the bill is specifically about in the act of committing a crime, if you do this thing.

01:01:46.000 It's a, it's a, it's a, what do they call it?

01:01:49.000 Like a hate crime thing?

01:01:50.000 It's a hate crime thing, but it's, um, it's, uh, I forgot what it's called.

01:01:53.000 In law, when they add on to the crime because of a thing you did.

01:01:56.000 I forgot what, I'm, I'm, I can't think of it right now.

01:01:58.000 Yeah.

01:01:59.000 Yeah.

01:02:00.000 Like a secondary offense, I think is what they call it.

01:02:02.000 Like you can't get pulled over for something, but once you get pulled over, they can charge you.

01:02:06.000 I mean, it's bad.

01:02:07.000 It's a bad precedent, but I think it was Nuance Bro who was talking.

01:02:10.000 He was like, it's, it's kind of comparable to the lynching.

01:02:12.000 It's like, well, lynching's already illegal.

01:02:15.000 It's already illegal to harass people.

01:02:18.000 It's already illegal to do these things in this bill.

01:02:21.000 To make someone feel terrorized.

01:02:24.000 That's not up to me.

01:02:25.000 The way you feel is the way you choose to feel.

01:02:28.000 My words are not making you feel anything.

01:02:30.000 I'm making noise and then you are interpreting that and making yourself feel a certain way.

01:02:35.000 We will see someone arrested for this.

01:02:38.000 Yeah, me.

01:02:39.000 I'm probably gonna get arrested for this.

01:02:40.000 I'm gonna yell at, you know, Governor Whitmer and call her a boy and go to jail.

01:02:43.000 Can't go to Michigan anymore?

01:02:44.000 No.

01:02:44.000 Can you get arrested?

01:02:45.000 They'll say that you are a right-wing terrorist and all that stuff.

01:02:49.000 Can you get arrested for it, or is it just an additional charge that you would get, or it makes the charge more severe if you're also misgendering them?

01:02:57.000 I think this in and of itself is a hate crime, to make someone feel terrorized, frightened, or threatened.

01:03:02.000 By misgendering them.

01:03:04.000 Well, in any way.

01:03:05.000 Literally, I don't think it specifies.

01:03:07.000 To make someone feel afraid, is that what it says?

01:03:09.000 Intimidate means willful course of conduct involving repeated or continuing harassment of another individual that would cause a reasonable individual to feel terrorized, frightened, or threatened, and that actually causes the victim to feel terrorized, frightened, or threatened.

01:03:20.000 Intimidate does not include constitutionally protected activity or conduct that serves a legitimate purpose.

01:03:25.000 Well, constitutional protected activity is calling a man a woman.

01:03:28.000 That's right.

01:03:31.000 But apparently not.

01:03:32.000 You would think.

01:03:32.000 No, it is.

01:03:35.000 So that will be up for the courts, but we are marching in that direction.

01:03:39.000 So look, Jordan Peterson, this was his big thing.

01:03:42.000 Was it Bill C-16 or whatever it was back in the day?

01:03:45.000 He was like, what's the next thing?

01:03:47.000 He's like, people go to jail for this.

01:03:48.000 They all mocked him and they said, you're lying.

01:03:51.000 They were like, Dr. Peterson, the penalty is a fine.

01:03:54.000 And then he goes, and what happens if you don't pay the fine?

01:03:57.000 And then everyone's like, uh, you go to jail.

01:04:01.000 And he's like, oh, so what did I say that was wrong?

01:04:04.000 And then, sure enough, we've seen it.

01:04:05.000 There was, like, one guy who wouldn't call his daughter male pronouns, so they arrested him or something like that.

01:04:09.000 What?

01:04:10.000 Oh, I didn't see that.

01:04:10.000 Up in Canada.

01:04:11.000 Let me see if I can find that.

01:04:12.000 We had a member one night that was afraid to say anything bad about Trudeau because he was a Canadian.

01:04:19.000 And he's like, I can't, like, you guys can make the jokes, but I won't make any jokes here on your after show. 0.90

01:04:24.000 Danny Polishuk doesn't even make that many Trudeau jokes, and he's crazy.

01:04:30.000 2021, father arrested for discussing child's gender transition in defiance of court order.

01:04:34.000 I mean... You know, teenager was born female and he was kept referring to her with the... Look at this, look at the New York Post wrote.

01:04:42.000 Referring to his teen daughter, referring to him with the pronouns she and her.

01:04:47.000 Born female.

01:04:48.000 Okay, New York Post.

01:04:50.000 He was found in contempt of court and arrested Tuesday for calling the teen his daughter and publicly referring to him with the pronouns she and her.

01:04:58.000 The teenager was born as a female.

01:04:59.000 And that's in Canada?

01:05:00.000 Yep.

01:05:01.000 That's already happening here, though, in California.

01:05:03.000 They want it to be child abuse if you don't affirm your child's perceived gender.

01:05:07.000 Exactly, I'm telling you, it is coming.

01:05:09.000 Everybody got really mad at Target for the tuck-friendly bathing suit, but then when you really looked at it, their marketing of VP was giving $2.1 million to GLSEN, which actually is a corporation that helps kids transition behind their parents' back.

01:05:22.000 So they really are.

01:05:23.000 They're not secretive about what they're supportive of.

01:05:25.000 No, it's out in the open.

01:05:26.000 They've been partnered with organizations like that for like over a decade, though.

01:05:30.000 Target is one of the headline sponsors for New York City's Youth Pride, and was one of the founding sponsors of New York City Youth Pride.

01:05:37.000 So it wasn't just... I'm just surprised it took this long for people to realize.

01:05:41.000 But I think the narrative- How far their tentacles were reaching.

01:05:44.000 I think the narrative around pride in these organizations shifted over time.

01:05:47.000 Like over the last decade it went from being like you're gonna come out to your parents and they're not gonna accept you and you need a chosen family who will embrace you and love you to being like you're gonna tell your parents that you want to undergo medical intervention surgery to alter your sexual characteristics and they're gonna say no and that's terrible and you're gonna have to look for people to support you.

01:06:04.000 Like, the conversation has dramatically shifted as our leftist progressive counterparts have embraced gender ideology.

01:06:13.000 It's the Bolsheviks. 0.86

01:06:15.000 They took the ownership of children very seriously.

01:06:17.000 Imagine a court ordering you to not refer to your own daughter as your daughter.

01:06:22.000 And he got arrested for it.

01:06:26.000 This is back in 2021, March, I think it was.

01:06:32.000 And so yeah, like in California, they're passing that bill that says you have to affirm your kids, otherwise it's child abuse.

01:06:38.000 They'll take your kids from you. 1.00

01:06:40.000 No compelled speech laws.

01:06:42.000 I mean, affirming the kid isn't necessarily a speech thing.

01:06:42.000 I don't like that.

01:06:45.000 Because if they start compelling you to say something, then they can make you say things about your leader.

01:06:52.000 And no, that's not how people feel.

01:06:54.000 Like I said before, this is a specific thing the Supreme Court just ruled on yesterday, that state laws shouldn't compel you to do something that violates the way you would otherwise speak.

01:07:06.000 But again, they're dancing the line.

01:07:07.000 They're sort of saying like, Well, we're not saying that you can't say something, we're just saying that we'll punish you if you don't say this other thing.

01:07:13.000 Well, I think the dad was really disappointed because if you notice in this particular situation, this was a female to male transition, giving them no advantage in sports.

01:07:24.000 Now, if this was the other way around, where it was a male transition to a female, maybe she would have been a great athlete, like Leah Thomas, and then he would have been more proud of her.

01:07:34.000 It's on the dad, that's what I'm saying.

01:07:34.000 Maybe it's on the dad.

01:07:36.000 I think it's the dad's fault.

01:07:38.000 The father was trying to find medical solutions that didn't involve drugs, and they were like, nope, drugs.

01:07:43.000 Yeah, wow.

01:07:44.000 Well, that's the thing, Tim, they literally, this has happened with Chloe Cole, they'll tell the children's parents that the child is going to kill themselves if they do not get this gender reaffirming surgery.

01:07:56.000 When in actuality, desistance rates are between like 65 and 98 percent, so your best The best course of action, seemingly, for the child, this is what Europe found, is nothing.

01:08:07.000 Yeah.

01:08:08.000 Non-intervention.

01:08:09.000 Non-intervention.

01:08:10.000 And when they say stuff like, if you don't do this, your kid will take their own life or harm themselves, it's actually the inverse.

01:08:16.000 If the suicidality, ideation and action is higher among the transgender population, but children are 60-90% likely to desist with no intervention, then intervention actually increases the rate of suicidality. 0.76

01:08:32.000 Yes.

01:08:32.000 We don't want to get medical misinformation, but SSRIs actually increase your suicidal idolization.

01:08:37.000 Well, I'll keep it simply.

01:08:39.000 Make sure you find a good doctor you trust for all of this stuff.

01:08:42.000 We're just people on the internet.

01:08:44.000 I'm not a doctor.

01:08:45.000 Do not listen to anything from me medically.

01:08:48.000 So I'm speaking not as a medical doctor who can talk about mental health.

01:08:51.000 I'm speaking my opinion based on the studies showing resistance rates are this high.

01:08:56.000 So what I should say is if those studies are true, logic would dictate the best course of action is X.

01:09:02.000 Not a doctor, though.

01:09:04.000 To confirm what you're saying, Alex, antidepressants and suicide risk from the National Institute of Health, 2005, systematic review, controlled trials, compared SSRIs with other active treatments or placebos found almost two-fold increase in the odds of fatal and non-fatal suicide acts among those exposed to SSRIs.

01:09:20.000 Yeah, National Institute of Health.

01:09:20.000 That's from NIH?

01:09:21.000 Wow.

01:09:22.000 That was the first thing that came up when I typed SSRI suicide.

01:09:25.000 It's no joke.

01:09:26.000 And I'm not a doctor at all, but I'm telling you, not once during the pandemic did they ever tell anybody to go get some exercise and eat better. 0.68

01:09:33.000 I mean, I think that's where it comes down to a lot of our mental health problems, too, is the crap that we eat and we don't exercise.

01:09:37.000 And just because I'm sure a lot of people are like, what's an SSRI?

01:09:40.000 It's a Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor.

01:09:43.000 There you go.

01:09:44.000 Now you know what SSRI stands for.

01:09:46.000 The more you know.

01:09:46.000 Serotonin Selective Reuptake Inhibitor.

01:09:49.000 You've been working out a lot.

01:09:50.000 How do you feel?

01:09:51.000 I feel better.

01:09:52.000 No, I think that's like, you know, for me, I've had challenging stuff.

01:09:56.000 I lost my mom not that long ago.

01:09:57.000 And I remember exercising and stuff because I was very depressed about that.

01:09:59.000 That's the only thing that made me feel better.

01:10:01.000 So I think if that helped me with that, it would help everybody else.

01:10:04.000 And I know it's not a placebo.

01:10:05.000 It's not just going to fix problems with people that exercise that are depressed.

01:10:08.000 But I'm just saying there are natural remedies, I believe, instead of just taking a magic pill.

01:10:12.000 I've been doing a mile on the on the bike on the assault bike, and it's like it lowers my blood pressure.

01:10:18.000 Like, I just work in my lower body, a little bit of the upper body, but afterwards, for like six hours, I just have lower blood pressure.

01:10:23.000 It's fantastic for my mind.

01:10:25.000 I don't think the human body is designed for a sedentary lifestyle.

01:10:28.000 And that's unfortunately, you know, one of the nice things about having, you know, non-manual labor jobs is that you get to be in the air conditioning and, you know, whatever else.

01:10:28.000 No.

01:10:36.000 On the other hand, now you are putting your body at a permanent state of rest, which is not good for it.

01:10:41.000 So unless you actively try to find ways to be active, you are more likely to Harm your body, essentially.

01:10:49.000 I think that's why a lot of people are just more mentally ill in general, because our entire society and lifestyle is antithetical to the human condition, both mentally and physically.

01:10:59.000 Yeah, well you mentioned birth control, and that's one of the things that I find super interesting, because you probably say this too, there's this study that says if you start birth control before the age of 20, you're 130% more likely to develop depression.

01:11:11.000 Wow.

01:11:12.000 commit suicide and all women. This is like a one of the largest studies ever done on 1.00

01:11:17.000 this was 260,000 women is published by Cambridge Press University Press. They found that women 0.99

01:11:24.000 any of any age are 90% more likely to develop symptoms of depression if they take birth

01:11:28.000 control and to me one of the interesting things about this and maybe you can talk about the

01:11:34.000 two but my anecdotal experiences all know girls who it's not to sleep around. I know 0.99

01:11:39.000 that's the thing conservative men always bring up and it's not an unreasonable thing to question

01:11:42.000 about society but they're told oh you have bad really painful cramps it's disruptive

01:11:47.000 to your education to your job get on birth control your skin anything.

01:11:50.000 They'll use it as this treat-all pill.

01:11:52.000 But really, those are symptoms that your hormones are out of whack.

01:11:55.000 So instead of treating the hormone imbalance through diet, through food, through exercise, they just say, cover that and prolong the problem.

01:12:03.000 And then we don't talk about the consequences.

01:12:06.000 2020 was the 60th anniversary of when the FDA signed off on birth control as a form of contraceptive or the pill.

01:12:13.000 And yet we're still just now acknowledging that women become extremely depressed because of it.

01:12:19.000 Like, that seems crazy to me.

01:12:20.000 You put your body's hormones on pause for years on end and expect there to be no consequences?

01:12:25.000 No, and that's the issue, is that there's not informed consent for women for so many things that are given to them, especially birth control.

01:12:33.000 These young girls, I was put on it at 14 for acne, for something minuscule, and I wasn't told, hey, you might get really depressed.

01:12:40.000 hey, you might become suicidal.

01:12:42.000 And none of these women are told this.

01:12:44.000 They're expected to read, it's like the terms of service. 0.99

01:12:47.000 Nobody reads what's in the damn box. 0.99

01:12:49.000 And so they, but female unhappiness, nobody's talking about this. 0.99

01:12:53.000 Relative, their subjective wellbeing, our subjective wellbeing as women has fallen

01:12:58.000 both absolutely and relatively to that of men, despite there being so much progress.

01:13:03.000 And there's actually a really funny Yale study that talks about this, the paradox of declining female happiness, female unhappiness, because they talk about it.

01:13:12.000 They're like, wow, we're making so much progress, but women are more unhappy than ever! 1.00

01:13:17.000 Because we're severing women from their biological nature, from femininity, and pumping them full of hormones and telling them the only way you're happy is if you're like a man and you don't have And then if you get depressed, they're like, and have some SSRIs, which we now agree. 0.99

01:13:30.000 Then they're on a pharmaceutical cocktail.

01:13:32.000 Oh, the birth control.

01:13:33.000 They don't even ask you.

01:13:35.000 If I'm on birth control and I go to my doctor and I say I'm depressed, they do not even ask you most of the time or mention that it might be the birth control.

01:13:43.000 They just pop you on an SSRI or they pop you on something else.

01:13:46.000 And now you're on a pharmaceutical cocktail and it gets even worse.

01:13:49.000 Well, I look at a doctor a lot like a mechanic, basically, where they don't actually want to fix a problem, they just want to cut off the check engine light so you can't see what the problem is, and that's basically why they just medicate you.

01:14:00.000 Instead of actually trying to fix the problem, fix the engine, you know, actually do the hard work, they just want to give you this, you know, placebo cure-all.

01:14:07.000 Yeah, but are you talking about bad doctors?

01:14:09.000 Yeah, but most doctors are, because they'll just give you an SSRI, you just walk in and say, oh, I'm depressed.

01:14:12.000 They don't even ask you ten questions about why you're depressed.

01:14:14.000 I don't know, maybe you're going to bad doctors.

01:14:17.000 Yeah, but this is the problem with doctors, though, Tim, is that you know this.

01:14:20.000 They go to college.

01:14:21.000 They come out with huge debts.

01:14:22.000 Any doctor that spoke out against this pandemic protocol, you know, got fired.

01:14:26.000 So they are emboldened to listen to whatever they're... Sure, sure, sure.

01:14:30.000 My point is this.

01:14:32.000 There's no house MD.

01:14:33.000 There's no doctor that's like, you know what?

01:14:34.000 I'm going to try this unorthodox approach, because if they did, if they tried to prescribe ivermectin... There are.

01:14:38.000 No, there's people- So, during COVID, famously, Joe Rogan found a doctor who gave him a prescription he wanted.

01:14:44.000 There's an exception to that rule, but my point is this- He probably paid cash for him.

01:14:44.000 Of course!

01:14:48.000 He probably paid cash.

01:14:50.000 Sure.

01:14:50.000 Good doctors are not accessible to most people.

01:14:52.000 My point is this.

01:14:53.000 This argument is like, man, I hired a plumber and he broke my toilet, and I'm like, so find a better plumber?

01:14:58.000 If most plumbers you find are bad, you just gotta get a good one.

01:15:01.000 But here's what I'll tell you, because good doctors That's it.

01:15:03.000 You're not arguing my point though at all.

01:15:04.000 for most people because if they accept insurance what happens is they turn into

01:15:07.000 patient mills where they're just getting in and out. Have you ever been in doctors office?

01:15:10.000 See the plumber is not a good thing because you're not arguing my point though.

01:15:14.000 The plumber analogy is not good because basically the same company that that

01:15:16.000 sells the plumber the pipes is telling the plumber to keep messing up the house

01:15:19.000 so they can sell the plumber more pipes to replace the house.

01:15:23.000 I don't understand this argument where it's like my life should be easy and I shouldn't

01:15:26.000 have to do any work to find people who can work with me.

01:15:28.000 Because the majority of doctors have to have one train of thought.

01:15:32.000 So it's their whole livelihood's on it.

01:15:34.000 They'll get fired.

01:15:35.000 They can't even speak out against it.

01:15:36.000 So you say, oh, fine, there's one good doctor.

01:15:38.000 There's only one Peter McCullough.

01:15:39.000 It's not one good doctor.

01:15:40.000 I'm telling you the majority.

01:15:40.000 But there's not that many.

01:15:41.000 Like, how did we find, like, doctor, like, OK, look, my point.

01:15:44.000 99% of doctors are going to say the COVID vaccine is great.

01:15:47.000 I don't even think it's just that.

01:15:49.000 My point is, and I don't know about 99%, but the overall majority. 0.96

01:15:55.000 It's just, it's not an answer to say, because most people in this field are bad, we're screwed.

01:16:01.000 It's just, it's your responsibility to make sure the people you are working with are doing right by you.

01:16:09.000 It is not my or anyone else's responsibility.

01:16:11.000 If you go to a bad, insert any trade, that is your fault.

01:16:16.000 I think that's multifaceted, though, because most people don't know that their doctor may not be giving them the best advice.

01:16:22.000 And I don't think it's just... I think a lot of doctors are becoming dishonest and they're doing brand deals, but I also think because they're focusing on volume and getting people in and out.

01:16:31.000 I think a doctor should be sitting with you for an hour or two, really diving into... But they don't do that.

01:16:36.000 I just... I feel like it's not really arguing what I'm saying.

01:16:39.000 So many people said, I went to my doctor and they gave me bad information.

01:16:43.000 I checked online and found a different doctor.

01:16:45.000 But most people don't know it's bad.

01:16:47.000 What is your argument?

01:16:48.000 Do no research?

01:16:50.000 No, no, no, no.

01:16:50.000 Do research, but can you install a transmission in your car?

01:16:54.000 My brother can.

01:16:55.000 I'm saying, can you install a transmission in your car?

01:16:58.000 No, but I trust my brother.

01:16:59.000 I know, but I'm saying, so you go to an expert.

01:17:01.000 So what if every mechanic you went to was lying to you, Tim?

01:17:05.000 So here's what I do.

01:17:06.000 I go online.

01:17:07.000 I look up basic transmission stuff.

01:17:09.000 And you're going to learn how to install a transmission?

01:17:12.000 Let me ask you a question.

01:17:13.000 When you go to a car dealer, do you take his word for it?

01:17:15.000 A lot of times, yeah.

01:17:16.000 That's a mistake.

01:17:17.000 Well, this is how it works, because I actually have my dealer's license.

01:17:20.000 How it works is, in Texas, if you buy a car through a licensed dealer, you have to give them basically a post-sale inspection.

01:17:25.000 You have to make sure that it passes inspection, and if not, you have to tell them it's as-is.

01:17:29.000 So, in that sense, it is good, because, listen, I don't like the government getting involved in business, but at least when I sold a person a car, they knew it was either as-is, with no warranty, or the car was perfectly fine.

01:17:38.000 If the argument is Big Pharma is corrupt, and many doctors just accept whatever they say, and Big Pharma sponsors universities, there's no question.

01:17:47.000 But I do not accept the argument that it's not a person's fault for not taking the responsibility to do research on who they're hiring to treat their bodies.

01:17:56.000 Yeah, but I wouldn't know how to treat cancer.

01:17:59.000 I wouldn't know how to... I mean, there's a lot of stuff... But let me tell you, if you went to a doctor and they prescribed, like, splashing bleach in your face, you'd be like, hey, wait a minute.

01:18:06.000 Wait a minute.

01:18:07.000 There's a lot of doctors who say, oh, here, get this chemo.

01:18:09.000 But you're not arguing it.

01:18:11.000 You're not arguing what I'm saying.

01:18:11.000 I don't understand.

01:18:12.000 Well, I guess what happens is... I'm saying I don't trust the doctor.

01:18:14.000 You say, oh, you can just find these great unicorn doctors.

01:18:17.000 I don't think that.

01:18:17.000 I think the whole entire industry has been infected by the FDA.

01:18:19.000 That's clearly not true, though.

01:18:21.000 RFK Jr.

01:18:22.000 was saying it's the FDA.

01:18:23.000 There are tons of people who got prescribed a bunch of different treatments during COVID.

01:18:28.000 There are people posting on Twitter how their doctor is doing these treatments.

01:18:31.000 Yes, but it's... There was a coalition of doctors doing it.

01:18:34.000 But even that coalition couldn't... The government could still stop CVS from prescribing ivermectin, so it doesn't even matter.

01:18:40.000 Even if the doctor has his best intentions.

01:18:42.000 Oh, well, I do have this medication.

01:18:44.000 I'm going to prescribe it.

01:18:44.000 Then you go to your CVS.

01:18:46.000 Oh, I'm sorry, we're not going to fill out your prescription, Mr. Poole, because this isn't authorized for that.

01:18:50.000 So even the doctor could be superseded by the government.

01:18:53.000 No one is arguing that there's no corruption.

01:18:55.000 The argument is, you can't come to me and be like, I hired a plumber and he broke my toilet.

01:19:00.000 It's their fault.

01:19:00.000 I'll be like, dude, why didn't you do any research before?

01:19:04.000 I don't know what the argument is that...

01:19:07.000 Well, doctors take an oath to make sure that they have their patients' best interests, and I don't think doctors follow that oath.

01:19:13.000 I think I'm viewing it from an individualist, and you're viewing it from a collectivist perspective.

01:19:16.000 It's more fair to think of it as a fireman than a plumber, because the fireman, it's life and death.

01:19:21.000 They come, they have to put the fire out the right way.

01:19:24.000 If they go in there and they create some sort of arson or do something faulty, you're gonna know immediately, and it's the same way with doctors.

01:19:30.000 I mean, plumbers, obviously, it's just not life and death.

01:19:34.000 How about this?

01:19:35.000 Look at your cat, Mr. Bocas. 0.99

01:19:37.000 They want to euthanize it.

01:19:39.000 Doctors in Canada right now are literally prescribing people medically-assisted suicide because they can't afford the chairlift in their house.

01:19:46.000 And we also found a guy who said, give us 10 grand, we'll give him stem cells.

01:19:49.000 And the stem cells didn't work.

01:19:51.000 I think they're working.

01:19:52.000 I don't know if they can grow his heart or anything.

01:19:55.000 It's not working.

01:19:58.000 So who do we trust?

01:19:59.000 The guy who said, pay me a lot of money and I'll save your cat?

01:20:01.000 Oops, it didn't work.

01:20:03.000 Maybe he had the best intentions and he was correct.

01:20:04.000 It just didn't work.

01:20:05.000 Or the doctor says, this treatment's not going to work.

01:20:07.000 I recommend you not do it.

01:20:09.000 Who turned out to be correct?

01:20:10.000 It's just... No, I don't trust a doctor that says, kill your cat, and then if you say no, he says, okay, then give it this medicine until it dies. 1.00

01:20:16.000 I'm like, no, fuck off, dude. 1.00

01:20:18.000 I'm gonna heal my cat, thank you. 1.00

01:20:20.000 Okay, I don't disagree, but my point is...

01:20:24.000 We pay for the expensive treatment that didn't work.

01:20:26.000 I think it worked.

01:20:27.000 It's just, it's not a superhero treatment.

01:20:29.000 Was it supposed to work or prolong his life?

01:20:31.000 Yeah, just like regeneration.

01:20:32.000 No, stem cells was supposed to work.

01:20:33.000 But it's experimental.

01:20:34.000 The drugs are supposed to prolong his life.

01:20:36.000 And Tim, did you know the third leading cause of death is, you know, doctor malpractice?

01:20:41.000 I don't know if that's true.

01:20:42.000 Google it.

01:20:43.000 Third cause of death?

01:20:44.000 Yeah, I think it's the third leading cause of death behind like heart disease and cancer.

01:20:49.000 Who would admit that?

01:20:49.000 That's like a funny statistic.

01:20:50.000 Well, look it up, look it up.

01:20:52.000 Medical error is the third leading cause of death according to IHI.org.

01:20:56.000 Yeah, so this is a problem.

01:20:57.000 That's why I think it's more of a collectivist issue.

01:20:59.000 But let me just say this, Tim, and I'm not trying to get emotional because once again I have to bring up my mother dying.

01:21:03.000 It was the worst thing in my life.

01:21:04.000 But we told the doctors not to give her remdesivir.

01:21:06.000 They still gave her remdesivir, because they could still bill her insurance.

01:21:09.000 Without our authority, as soon as we signed a DNR, they were able to do whatever they want.

01:21:13.000 They could care less.

01:21:14.000 They know remdesivir.

01:21:15.000 They know for a fact... Okay.

01:21:16.000 I know we can't say stuff.

01:21:17.000 I'm just saying... No, no, no, no.

01:21:18.000 My point is, you're telling me that you are like, wow... I told the doctor not to do something.

01:21:22.000 A doctor could still do it.

01:21:23.000 Do you understand that?

01:21:24.000 The doctor has full control.

01:21:25.000 They can just mess up on your heart surgery.

01:21:27.000 So, it's... Sure.

01:21:29.000 What I'm saying is, so these doctors- So it's like, so here's my point.

01:21:31.000 You're going, this doctor's clearly wrong.

01:21:33.000 Would you do heart surgery on me?

01:21:37.000 No, I wouldn't get that.

01:21:38.000 I wouldn't have you- Why- If you go to a doctor and the doctor says something and you're like, that doctor's wrong.

01:21:42.000 I should do- I should have him do my heart surgery.

01:21:44.000 That makes no sense. 0.97

01:21:45.000 No, but I'm just saying, all doctors are basically corrupt.

01:21:48.000 Do you think that, like, there's no Trump-supporting doctors? 0.77

01:21:51.000 Of course, but I think that they're in the, I think that's the, they're in the major minority, for sure.

01:21:55.000 It's that they're centralized through the AMA and the FDA.

01:21:57.000 Listen, we can only talk about so much stuff because of medical misinformation.

01:21:59.000 There's a lot of stuff I'd like to be talking, I would sound like RFK, but I think if you just look at RFK and you look at correlation and causation and you could look at a lot of stuff, Tim, you could see some numbers.

01:22:10.000 He's also, I think he's wrong about a lot of stuff.

01:22:12.000 Well, I think about childhood vaccines.

01:22:15.000 I mean, we can, like I said, medical misinformation is going to say so much, but I do think it's weird some of the schedules of vaccines for young children at that young of age, and then you look at the occurrence of autism at a rate that we've never seen.

01:22:29.000 I'm not saying that They're totally connected, but, I mean, it's hard to not, you know, put the two together.

01:22:38.000 Do ourselves a favor, investigate.

01:22:41.000 Raise the yellow flag and let's take a look at all this stuff, man.

01:22:44.000 One of the biggest issues when it comes to any of this stuff is If there are 50 variables in a problem, and you're aware of two of them, you might think those two things are correlated.

01:22:56.000 But you don't know the other variables.

01:22:58.000 So, the trans kids, for instance, is a good argument. 1.00

01:23:01.000 Conservatives often talk about social contagion, and then I immediately say endocrine disruptors.

01:23:05.000 Like, there are other things that are disrupting the hormones of children.

01:23:12.000 That could be causing this.

01:23:13.000 Speaking of... Are we... But it's like cancer clusters, they can usually figure out what's causing something if there's a cluster of people getting sick from the same thing.

01:23:20.000 You can, and especially with AI, you can put that data in and very quickly... So we should be able to figure this out, but... So, the answer is not that we know for sure, but that we should take all the data available, not... It's... I think we should... Not eight mice.

01:23:36.000 Right, we should take We should have any kid diagnosed with autism and we should talk about where they live, environmental factors, density of like uraniums or selenium or whatever may be in their water, medications, vaccines, not just any one but all, load that into an AI and it'll show us the patterns and then we can assess that move forward.

01:23:56.000 My main point with doctors is I do not disagree that most doctors just say, this is what we're told to give you.

01:24:03.000 My point is, that is the reason why it is incumbent upon you to go to a doctor, ask questions, and then shop around.

01:24:10.000 Well, do you think most doctors would listen to Peter Hotez?

01:24:14.000 The answer is yes, but to what degree?

01:24:17.000 Because if you go to rural areas and MAGA country, you'll find most doctors there probably would not.

01:24:24.000 But most could be 51%.

01:24:25.000 I actually think you'll find a lot of doctors who... You're gonna have a higher density of doctors in major urban liberal centers, and as Democrats, believe what CNN tells them, and just march in lockstep.

01:24:38.000 But I guarantee you, if you go to a Trump-supporting doctor, he's going to agree with you.

01:24:43.000 Yeah, a Trump-supporting one, yeah.

01:24:44.000 And there's many of them.

01:24:45.000 There's a lot of them.

01:24:46.000 So we can put it this simply.

01:24:48.000 If you are distrustful of the medical system, find a doctor who politically aligns with you, and then do your research.

01:24:53.000 I don't think politics is enough, though, because I think there's Trump-supporting doctors who still will prescribe birth control to young girls.

01:25:00.000 They're still gonna give out SRIs.

01:25:02.000 You still have responsibility.

01:25:04.000 It is not the responsibility of everyone else.

01:25:07.000 Yeah, but if you come to me, Tim, and you say, I have cancer, I need help, and I'm a doctor, you're going to take whatever they give you because you're going to trust them.

01:25:15.000 No!

01:25:16.000 When you have doctors who are going to lose their medical license if they don't adhere to a certain agenda.

01:25:20.000 If your argument is people don't have agency?

01:25:23.000 You should do your own research, but I'm just saying there's questions that we don't have the answers to.

01:25:27.000 What did Steve Jobs want a fruitarian diet when he had pancreatic cancer and then died?

01:25:31.000 I don't think that that helped him, but I'm saying... I agree!

01:25:33.000 You should have listened to his doctor!

01:25:35.000 But you look to experts for answers that you don't have.

01:25:38.000 So yes, you can do your own research, but you're still going to go with the expert's opinion more often than not.

01:25:44.000 And if you find out... So, if anyone of any job comes to you and says, the sky's green, And you go, I'll take your word for it.

01:25:55.000 That's on you!

01:25:55.000 Well, sometimes the sky is green.

01:25:57.000 When there's a storm coming, especially.

01:25:58.000 It's really cool.

01:25:58.000 My point is, you cannot just say, they're the experts, so everyone just does what they say.

01:26:04.000 That's a problem.

01:26:05.000 You should not.

01:26:06.000 Here's an example.

01:26:07.000 I think that's my point, is that most people don't know that you shouldn't take a doctor's word as the Bible.

01:26:12.000 There's nothing you can do about this.

01:26:14.000 That's the biggest issue.

01:26:15.000 So you as individuals should not, like, we should be telling people, and this is my position, Shop around for a doctor you trust.

01:26:24.000 That is the answer.

01:26:25.000 I believe it is counterproductive to be like, no, no, there's no point.

01:26:28.000 What if it's an emergency?

01:26:29.000 You just go in the emergency room, you don't get to pick your doctor.

01:26:31.000 It's an emergency!

01:26:32.000 You're out of luck!

01:26:33.000 The world is not fair, the world is not perfect, the world is not safe.

01:26:36.000 If you are in New York City- But isn't it a bad system that if you have an emergency you're gonna go to a doctor that's more than likely bad?

01:26:40.000 No one is arguing against that, but you said all doctors are bad.

01:26:44.000 Not all, but I'd say the majority of them are.

01:26:45.000 And the majority could be what, 51% or 99%?

01:26:48.000 I think that they're given bad information because they're not- that's why I think it is.

01:26:52.000 I think they're actually probably good inherently, like morally they're probably good, but they're going off bad information.

01:26:57.000 Yes, we need- The average person to take responsibility for their health and not just go, oh, that means instead of saying all doctors are bad, it's pointless.

01:27:08.000 We say, no, you just have to work hard.

01:27:12.000 And if you don't, you don't deserve it.

01:27:14.000 If you blindly trust someone to inject you in a 7-Eleven parking lot, you deserve whatever happens.

01:27:19.000 But it's if you do research, and to the best of your ability decide what is right for you because the responsibility is incumbent upon you, then, sure, malpractice I believe kicks in.

01:27:28.000 Well, what if you can't afford that, Doctor?

01:27:30.000 If you can't afford medical treatment, welcome to real life.

01:27:34.000 If you can't afford a spear and you're in the woods and a bear attacks you, that's not my problem.

01:27:38.000 Not to be a contrarian, even though I am conservative, I actually do believe that our

01:27:42.000 medical industrial complex is totally crooked and that we need to have caps or we should have some

01:27:47.000 sort of socialized health care. I know that sounds crazy and that's not a conservative viewpoint,

01:27:51.000 but I think the basic necessity of having insulin, the fact that insulin is $200 in Texas,

01:27:56.000 but it's $2 in Mexico, that's because of corruption. So we have such a corrupt system.

01:28:02.000 I think it is corrupt, and that means... You can't fix it.

01:28:04.000 That means you have to personally do the work to find a good doctor.

01:28:07.000 But I can't change the price of insulin.

01:28:09.000 You can go to Mexico, you can go to Canada.

01:28:12.000 Donald Trump worked towards it.

01:28:13.000 Do you think there needs to be reform in the medical industry?

01:28:15.000 Hold on.

01:28:15.000 This is the main issue right now.

01:28:17.000 You cannot be like, no, all doctors are bad.

01:28:18.000 End of story.

01:28:19.000 Well, the problem is they're coming from a centralized authority.

01:28:21.000 That's too general.

01:28:22.000 That's not how I really feel.

01:28:23.000 And I reject the idea that it's like, nope, even if there is a good doctor, it's too expensive.

01:28:27.000 That's not true.

01:28:28.000 It's just hard.

01:28:30.000 Life is hard.

01:28:31.000 You are not entitled to anything.

01:28:33.000 You do not have the right to walk into a city and be like, I demand the doctor do things perfectly.

01:28:38.000 That's not how reality works.

01:28:39.000 You can hire a security guard, you can hire a cop, and then that cop runs away from the mass shooting event and gets criminally charged for it.

01:28:45.000 That's true, because a cop and an attorney, they take an oath to, you know...

01:28:49.000 An oath is... the world is not a rigid mathematical system.

01:28:53.000 It is a system of people and fallibility.

01:28:55.000 A cop can fail at his job, and then you sue.

01:28:57.000 A doctor can fail at his job, and then you sue.

01:28:59.000 You as an individual have the responsibility to make sure you are doing everything you

01:29:05.000 require, and it's... to me, the point is this.

01:29:08.000 I guarantee you, if you walk into a random clinic and say, Doc, whatever you say is law,

01:29:13.000 you will end up with problems.

01:29:14.000 But if you read some reviews online, do some research, let me tell you a story.

01:29:19.000 I got prescribed an antibiotic once and it had joint issues were associated with it.

01:29:24.000 I said, I will not.

01:29:25.000 I looked up online what this was.

01:29:26.000 I won't take it.

01:29:27.000 And they said, OK.

01:29:27.000 I skateboard.

01:29:29.000 And then I said, I read online about this alternative treatment and they said, okay,

01:29:32.000 and they handed me my prescription. If you don't do any of that and bad things happen,

01:29:37.000 it's not because doctors are bad, it's because you don't take responsibility for your own life.

01:29:41.000 But sometimes the data they have is wrong and then people are hooked into a system that they don't

01:29:47.000 let's take a heroin addict trying to get a heroin addict to realize that they're in a bad place.

01:29:51.000 So you need from the outside be like a white knighting for these people that are stuck.

01:29:55.000 **Matt Stauffer** Or what about this real quick? What about a cancer patient that's dying that

01:29:58.000 can't get access to opioids because we're having such a fentanyl crisis to a patient that actually

01:30:02.000 needs it? **Matt Stauffer** So this is like a leftist view that we should be able to give

01:30:06.000 everyone everything but medicine... **Matt Stauffer** No, but I'm talking

01:30:08.000 about access. I'm not talking about for free. **Matt Stauffer** If it doesn't exist,

01:30:11.000 I'm sorry, you can't have it. I would like to fly, but I don't have a jetpack.

01:30:14.000 **Jeff** No, but I'm talking about, have you noticed now doctors will not prescribe opioids

01:30:18.000 to people that are actually in pain because they do not want to get in trouble because

01:30:21.000 there's such an over... **Matt Stauffer** I think...

01:30:22.000 I think that's a good thing.

01:30:24.000 But what about the cancer patient that is in actual pain that's not going to abuse the pills?

01:30:28.000 I don't think you're entitled to any of these.

01:30:30.000 I don't understand.

01:30:30.000 I don't get it.

01:30:31.000 You don't think the cancer patient should be entitled to pain medication?

01:30:35.000 No, absolutely not.

01:30:36.000 I do not think anyone is entitled to just be given things.

01:30:41.000 It just makes no sense to me.

01:30:42.000 If it doesn't exist, you can't have it.

01:30:43.000 I'll tell you this, wouldn't they be entitled to a cure for their cancer?

01:30:46.000 No, because we don't have that.

01:30:47.000 But I'm talking about if somebody's in pain, and we have a cheap thing that'll fix their pain, I think that they should be able to have access to it.

01:30:54.000 Instead, doctors are saying, no, we can't, because you know what?

01:30:56.000 A few years ago, we over-prescribed Oxycontin, and then we got in trouble, and so now we can't actually give people with pain pain medicine.

01:31:02.000 I'm sorry.

01:31:03.000 Oopsie poopsie.

01:31:04.000 I'm a doctor.

01:31:04.000 The system is imperfect.

01:31:06.000 Find a better doctor.

01:31:07.000 This is also wild.

01:31:08.000 I don't know if you guys saw, the World Health Organization just classified aspartame as a possible carcinogen.

01:31:14.000 And that's another thing we need to talk about.

01:31:15.000 The level of cancer in young people now is at the highest levels it's ever been.

01:31:19.000 So we're talking about autism earlier, like you were talking about all these different factors that could happen in the 80s, the amount of aspartame that pregnant mothers were taking.

01:31:25.000 Look at me, I'm drinking it right now!

01:31:27.000 I'm getting cancer right now!

01:31:30.000 beating the drum about how nasty this stuff is for about a decade.

01:31:34.000 There's so few studies on this thing, aspartame.

01:31:37.000 Well, they kept on declining it when it originally tried to get approved by the FDA.

01:31:40.000 It was Donald Rumsfeld!

01:31:42.000 Reagan put Rumsfeld in with this and got it with like a, they wouldn't vote to make it a food because it was like, I don't know if they used it as rat poison or something in the 60s.

01:31:51.000 And then when Reagan got in, it was like the day he got into office, he stacked this five-man panel and then they made it legal.

01:31:58.000 I think it's a little bit ridiculous, though, that they're coming out, ooh, aspartame causes cancer.

01:32:03.000 First of all, we knew that.

01:32:04.000 Second of all, I think it's just kind of signaling, like, look, guys, don't worry.

01:32:10.000 We'll tell you if something's bad for you.

01:32:12.000 Meanwhile, the FDA just approved lab-grown meat.

01:32:15.000 Like, give me a break.

01:32:15.000 In the same breath that they're approving lab-grown meat, they're like, oh, by the way, Diet Coke might cause cancer.

01:32:20.000 Took them 40 years to say that, that aspartame might be cancerous.

01:32:23.000 40 years.

01:32:24.000 What else are they not saying?

01:32:25.000 We gotta go to Super Chats.

01:32:27.000 So I'll start by reading two recent ones, and then we'll go back to being like we normally do.

01:32:31.000 And Jason Hutchison says, Tim just went full Ludwig von Mises.

01:32:37.000 You're all a bunch of socialists, and it's awesome.

01:32:39.000 I stand with Tim on this.

01:32:40.000 However, Doc Holiday says, Alex is right.

01:32:43.000 Docs are pushes for big pharma, and Ashley is hot AF.

01:32:47.000 So, you know.

01:32:48.000 And then Doc had said, Tim, failing miserably, this is embarrassing, you are wrong, I am right.

01:32:54.000 The fact is, it doesn't matter if docs are corrupt.

01:32:57.000 You are not entitled to a system that works as you want it to be unless you work to build it.

01:33:02.000 If it is truth and reality that most doctors shill for big pharma, and we all accept that, it is incumbent upon you to find someone you trust to prescribe you medication.

01:33:12.000 And if you simply go, nope, no such thing exists, then you are entitled to nothing.

01:33:16.000 Hey, but Tim, Tim, I can kind of be your argument right now.

01:33:19.000 Have you ever heard of Nigeria?

01:33:21.000 Yes, I've heard of that.

01:33:22.000 They had the lowest levels of COVID.

01:33:25.000 Right.

01:33:25.000 How would you compare their medical system to ours?

01:33:28.000 Would you say that theirs is better or worse than ours?

01:33:30.000 I don't know.

01:33:31.000 Well, I would say that it's worse, right?

01:33:33.000 Why would you say that?

01:33:34.000 Well, let's just... because the infrastructure, the schools, I think that... Do you actually know about their infrastructure?

01:33:38.000 Well, I know that we have more top universities in America than Africa when it comes to medical school.

01:33:43.000 So my point is... Let's get to the point.

01:33:46.000 A place that had less I think diet's a huge part of it.

01:33:50.000 and probably less medical infrastructure did better with the pandemic than the

01:33:50.000 Yes.

01:33:55.000 country that had access to everything. A lot of assumptions were just made that I can't answer.

01:33:59.000 Look at Nigeria's COVID rates. So why was Nigeria with less medical infrastructure able to...

01:34:06.000 Do you know they have less medical infrastructure?

01:34:08.000 For a fact, Google, you and I both know this.

01:34:11.000 Look, we can be cute.

01:34:14.000 You know that the United States has a better, excuse me, you know for a fact the United States has a better medical system than Nigeria. 0.99

01:34:21.000 When you just told me the whole thing was corrupt and doctors are prescribing bad things to people, I don't know what you're saying.

01:34:26.000 Life expectancy in Nigeria is 52 years, 54 years.

01:34:29.000 Does that include infant mortality?

01:34:31.000 Maybe.

01:34:32.000 Okay.

01:34:33.000 I don't know anything about Nigeria.

01:34:34.000 I'm looking at Wikipedia.

01:34:35.000 The point I was going to make was it is reasonable to assume their medical system is much, much worse than ours.

01:34:40.000 Yes.

01:34:40.000 But I just don't know.

01:34:41.000 And they handled the pandemic much better.

01:34:42.000 So half of the population lives on less than a $1.90 a day.

01:34:45.000 I don't know that's true.

01:34:45.000 So it's like less doctors... It's like dude says things about a country I don't know anything about.

01:34:49.000 But what I'm saying is less medical intervention in that country.

01:34:52.000 Let's just, let's agree that there was less medical intervention in Nigeria.

01:34:54.000 I don't know that!

01:34:56.000 But assuming that's the case, there might have been... Assuming that's the case, let's assume... That might not be the reason.

01:34:59.000 Let's just, just for hypotheticals, let's just assume that... I never, I never do that.

01:35:03.000 But even if that's true, Alex... I never, I never say, let's choose a country I know nothing about, did no research on... The overarching point is that a country with less medical supplies did better during the pandemic than the one with access to every single medical supply and medical expert in the world.

01:35:19.000 Why is that?

01:35:19.000 Better diet?

01:35:20.000 Probably because they just did less for COVID, not that they had some genius COVID policy.

01:35:24.000 How much did Nigeria spend?

01:35:25.000 Because they did less!

01:35:26.000 Because they did less and more people lived!

01:35:28.000 What was their COVID protocol? 0.99

01:35:30.000 Well, the reason why is because there they have parasites.

01:35:32.000 What was their COVID protocol? 0.78

01:35:34.000 What was it?

01:35:35.000 I believe it was ivermectin in Nigeria.

01:35:38.000 They have it.

01:35:39.000 Frequency?

01:35:40.000 I know the American protocol for COVID.

01:35:42.000 I know exactly what the United States did.

01:35:43.000 Well in Nigeria they had to take ivermectin because they have parasites in their water so they already take it regularly.

01:35:48.000 So I don't know if they had to take a different scheduling of it because they already take it.

01:35:52.000 So what was their COVID protocol then?

01:35:54.000 I don't know what their... So this is the problem.

01:35:56.000 I don't know how you can use them as an example if you don't even know what they were doing.

01:35:58.000 I don't even need to know.

01:36:00.000 Them doing nothing was still more beneficial.

01:36:02.000 Maybe they did something.

01:36:03.000 Maybe they actually did though.

01:36:04.000 Well, I would guess that they did less in America when I came.

01:36:06.000 Well, a guess is okay, but if we don't know, why is it an example?

01:36:08.000 Well, this is how I know, because I know that they administered less vaccines.

01:36:11.000 Sure, sure, but... So they did less vaccines and they had less deaths?

01:36:15.000 I cannot even begin to have a conversation if you don't know what they did.

01:36:19.000 I have a general idea, so I have enough of an idea to form an opinion.

01:36:24.000 So your opinion is, I assume they did a thing, but I don't know exactly what they did.

01:36:27.000 No, my opinion is that their medical system is not as good as America's medical system.

01:36:32.000 I think we can all agree on that.

01:36:33.000 That Nigeria does not have as good a medical system as America.

01:36:36.000 I think it's reasonable to assume.

01:36:37.000 I don't know anything about Nigeria.

01:36:40.000 We had the worst pandemic in history, in recorded history.

01:36:44.000 Other since, what, the Spanish flu in 1920.

01:36:45.000 But other than that, And a country in Africa had less COVID fatality.

01:36:55.000 Okay, dude, dude, dude.

01:36:57.000 I, you, what about Uganda?

01:37:01.000 Insert random country.

01:37:02.000 It's not random.

01:37:03.000 It's not random.

01:37:04.000 Uganda.

01:37:05.000 And Uganda had more. 0.77

01:37:07.000 I don't know what they did.

01:37:08.000 I don't know the numbers, but I'll just say it.

01:37:09.000 And Africa had lower COVID rates than North America.

01:37:11.000 Yes.

01:37:12.000 My point is there is no conversation to be had if you're going to say a thing that I have no information on.

01:37:17.000 My point is less doctors are better.

01:37:19.000 Not necessarily.

01:37:19.000 It could be a better diet, or just that they have a less bad diet.

01:37:26.000 Here we have a lot of plastics, like food colorings made from coal tar, aspartame, high fructose corn syrup, which is like a franken chemical, and obesity, 60% obesity rates.

01:37:37.000 That's a big part of COVID was obesity.

01:37:40.000 Maybe they didn't have that in Africa. 0.99

01:37:41.000 It could be a lack of reporting.

01:37:42.000 You said their medical system's not as superior as the United States.

01:37:46.000 You can't be like, I don't know what they did, I don't know their reporting system, I don't know their regulation.

01:37:51.000 I know the number is a big enough discrepancy that it wasn't just because of underreporting.

01:37:55.000 I know that.

01:37:56.000 I'll tell you another issue I take with RFK's stance.

01:37:59.000 He's taken the false stance that ivermectin was not approved because if there was a treatment for COVID, it would ruin the vaccine emergency use authorization, which makes literally no sense at all.

01:38:11.000 Wait, what does that mean?

01:38:12.000 Because monoclonal antibodies got an EUA as well, and if ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine

01:38:17.000 worked, they could give it an EUA as well.

01:38:20.000 You don't need to hard approve something to allow it to be used off-label for treatment.

01:38:24.000 So this statement...

01:38:25.000 It would not have... the vaccine, it would have affected the approval for the vaccine.

01:38:29.000 Then how come the monoclonal antibodies didn't affect the approval for vaccines?

01:38:33.000 Maybe because that's in the same class as a vaccine.

01:38:35.000 It's not?

01:38:36.000 Well, I don't know that to be the case.

01:38:37.000 I mean... Okay, so monoclonal antibodies is a therapeutic.

01:38:41.000 It is not a vaccination.

01:38:42.000 The reason why they're able to not do the standard testing, the protocol, that they would normally do, is because of the emergency use authorization.

01:38:49.000 And so everyone keeps saying... So if ivermectin would have been effective, they would have not been able to use it with an emergency use... E-U-A. 0.80

01:38:55.000 They could have put it under EUA the same as- You're talking about putting an ivermectin?

01:38:58.000 Yeah, but they don't want to do that because it costs two cents and everybody can get it because they wouldn't have benefited financially from doing this. 0.78

01:39:04.000 Perhaps.

01:39:05.000 For a fact!

01:39:05.000 So what I said was, the argument from RFK that the reason it was not approved is because that would end the EUA is wrong, and you agree with me, right?

01:39:13.000 Well, it would have- if- Ivermectin would have been given to more people.

01:39:17.000 I don't think Ivermectin is just some cure-all for COVID.

01:39:20.000 I just wanted to say that.

01:39:21.000 Okay, this is my point.

01:39:21.000 But I think that it could have helped.

01:39:23.000 RFK was wrong when he said that.

01:39:24.000 And so that would have maybe lessened the vaccine's emergency use.

01:39:28.000 The position taken by RFK and many others that Ivermectin was not approved because it would have affected the EUA is an incorrect statement because there were treatments approved under EUA outside of vaccines.

01:39:40.000 If the argument is that it couldn't make money off it, I agree.

01:39:43.000 Yeah.

01:39:44.000 If it had been approved... I think that's what this all comes down to for Big Pharma is money, though, Tim.

01:39:49.000 I think if Ivermectin had been approved not for emergency use, but actually just approved as a functioning therapeutic, then maybe it would have disrupted the EUAs for the others.

01:39:57.000 Right.

01:39:58.000 And so long as monoclonal antibodies, which were exorbitantly expensive and unavailable to the average person... Yeah, Ivermectin costs one cent a pill.

01:40:05.000 ...did receive an EUA, Then they could have put it under EUA.

01:40:08.000 So the problem I have with this is it is a false argument, and if you want to make the argument it was because of price, I agree.

01:40:16.000 They don't want to approve cheap, free drugs, because Big Pharma is corrupt and evil.

01:40:19.000 Yeah, so I agree with that.

01:40:21.000 So here's my issue.

01:40:23.000 That is logically and discernibly true.

01:40:26.000 But people get so knee-jerk defensive about any of this.

01:40:31.000 They're like, no, RFK's right.

01:40:32.000 I'm like, but there's no logic.

01:40:33.000 It makes no sense.

01:40:35.000 The money thing makes sense.

01:40:36.000 The EUA thing does not.

01:40:38.000 But people get mad at me like, you know, Tim won't admit it.

01:40:40.000 He's wrong about this one.

01:40:41.000 No, I'm right.

01:40:43.000 Well, think how much money they made with just the vaccines that nobody took.

01:40:46.000 Oh, just the mass-produced garbage-wrapped infringers?

01:40:49.000 Yeah, and they expired.

01:40:51.000 The idea that we would give no-bid, no-liability contracts to massive multinational corporations and mandate medication is psychotic.

01:40:58.000 Yeah, but that's what's ruining the world, is that we're not run by human beings, and I think I said this last time, we're being run by multinational corporations that don't have the ability to feel empathy when they can buy and sell these politicians.

01:41:07.000 Even Donald Trump, I love Donald Trump, but he's inviting the Johnson & Johnson family on stage.

01:41:12.000 I'm saying every politician has a price, and these multinational corporations Yes.

01:41:16.000 With the boycotts.

01:41:17.000 trying to put aspartame in our soda or whether it's Raytheon trying to sell more tanks in

01:41:21.000 the Ukraine, they can actually affect the world. 0.99

01:41:23.000 You and me complaining about it can't do jack shit. 0.91

01:41:26.000 I actually think complaining about it, we do have a pretty big impact on the world. 0.96

01:41:31.000 With the boycotts.

01:41:32.000 The boycotts have given me hope.

01:41:34.000 Yeah, but you gotta believe, man.

01:41:37.000 But the Pentagon budget, I think they had, what was it, $900 billion was unaccounted for.

01:41:42.000 Oh, it's trillions.

01:41:43.000 No, no, no, I'm talking about just $900 million was non-accounted for, non-military spending for the past year.

01:41:49.000 So almost, I mean, it was $900 billion, excuse me, almost a trillion dollars.

01:41:53.000 Yeah, because a trillion is $1,000 billion.

01:41:54.000 It was $900 billion unaccounted for.

01:41:56.000 They don't even have a paper trail of what that's for.

01:41:58.000 That's been happening.

01:41:59.000 Every year, I know, but...

01:42:01.000 Listen, I'm not a socialist, but we should reallocate those funds and help people instead of just killing people in foreign countries.

01:42:07.000 Let's read some superchats.

01:42:09.000 Cody Griffin says, Tim, will you have RFK on and grill him about his wish to pass common sense gun restrictions?

01:42:14.000 Would love the debate.

01:42:16.000 Yes, I think we're talking to them.

01:42:18.000 I'm not entirely sure what's going on.

01:42:20.000 The idea is to have RFK on the Culture War podcast, but we will see.

01:42:25.000 And I think it would be a really interesting discussion as it pertains to COVID, lockdowns, vaccinations, etc.

01:42:31.000 I am so in favor of RFK debating Hotez, I offered $100,000 to a charity of Hotez's choosing if you would have that debate.

01:42:41.000 I have said right here, I staunchly disagree with some of what RFK Jr.

01:42:45.000 has said.

01:42:46.000 A lot of it I'm not completely, you know, apprised to, so he's welcome to have his opinions and say things.

01:42:52.000 It is insane to me that one of the leading experts is refusing to have this conversation.

01:42:57.000 I am not an expert.

01:42:58.000 I have no problem sitting before Alex Stein and being like, no, here's what I believe and here's why I believe it.

01:43:03.000 Why is Hotez afraid to do that? 1.00

01:43:06.000 My personal thought is that he was threatened, maybe not threatened, but asked politely not to do it by some of his compatriots in the medical industry.

01:43:14.000 I don't know why.

01:43:14.000 Other than that, he likes doing podcasts and movies and stuff, so I love it.

01:43:18.000 I feel like he just knows he couldn't keep up.

01:43:20.000 I mean...

01:43:21.000 Information aside, I don't think he can present as well.

01:43:24.000 And a debate would open him up for that he could be wrong.

01:43:28.000 So there's no point in him having a debate because then it's like, oh, well, I'm having a debate because maybe you can hear me.

01:43:34.000 The answer is simple.

01:43:35.000 He does not believe what he says.

01:43:37.000 Would you have a HOTAS-adjacent person come on and debate RFK?

01:43:41.000 Absolutely.

01:43:41.000 Listen, and Tim, I think what you said is exactly right because, once again, medical misinformation, but Peter HOTAS has an autistic daughter and he wrote a book saying that vaccines do not cause autism.

01:43:52.000 That is very weird, right?

01:43:54.000 I'm not saying that he's not right in that, but that he... it's like...

01:43:58.000 He's trying to run cover for something.

01:44:01.000 It's so sinister that you would write that book if you did have an autism.

01:44:03.000 Here's why I disagree with the vaccine causes autism crowd.

01:44:06.000 Okay.

01:44:07.000 What is your basis for that assumption?

01:44:08.000 Well, if you look at the MMR vaccine, if you look at the scheduling of MMR vaccine, and Dale Bigtree did a really good video about this called Vax, and there was a time when Robert De Niro had this playing in the Tribeca Film Festival, and they got it taken out.

01:44:20.000 Do you remember that?

01:44:21.000 Do you want to just tell me the basis for your Oh, well, the MMR vaccine.

01:44:25.000 Well, they even did it with the scheduling of the MMR.

01:44:27.000 If the measles, mumps, rubella, if they actually gave it to them at an older age, they had less of an occurrence of autism.

01:44:33.000 And as a matter of fact, it was the MMR scheduling.

01:44:37.000 Even when they had the stats saying that if they spread it out, there was less autism, they still kept the normal scheduling.

01:44:43.000 And there's a whole documentary about this called Vax.

01:44:45.000 And it affects boys and people of color even more.

01:44:49.000 So here's the issue.

01:44:51.000 If you say, we've got a generation of kids with higher rates of autism, let's look at that and then compare their vaccination rates.

01:44:57.000 Well, the numbers did, and what the big pharma said is correlation does not mean causation.

01:45:01.000 That's what they said.

01:45:02.000 They said correlation does not mean causation.

01:45:03.000 And then we have to consider every other variable that exists in human development and the environment.

01:45:09.000 I would agree with Tim there, and Cernovic talks about that a lot, but we do need to look into why there's a rise in special ed kids, kids with autism.

01:45:18.000 It is rising dramatically.

01:45:20.000 I wonder why Peter Hotez would say it doesn't.

01:45:22.000 Like, you gotta say it, that's fine.

01:45:24.000 That's the thing, he's running cover for it.

01:45:26.000 My point is, I do not like conspiracy theories.

01:45:31.000 I love them.

01:45:32.000 Because what people do is, there's a big painting before you, and they'll look at one portion of it and say, that proves it.

01:45:41.000 And I'm like, listen, if you want to talk about the transgender youth issue, if you want to talk about autism rates, there are A thousand variables that need to be assessed in this before we can say we know for sure.

01:45:52.000 You certainly, 5G perhaps, the advent of cellular technology over the 90s, I believe absolutely has some degree of impact on the human body.

01:45:52.000 5G.

01:46:02.000 And they say don't worry, it's non-ionizing radiation.

01:46:03.000 My little baby in the womb, wow.

01:46:05.000 So my issue is this, if we know that plastics are causing problems, birth control in the water, seeping into the water causing problems, and these are proven, we know that there's phthalates, PCBs, we have an increase in vaccination scheduling, all of those things are true, I will not come out and be like, but this one thing I will say definitively did thing.

01:46:24.000 I don't know.

01:46:25.000 We need a, and this is impossible to do, It's not necessarily impossible.

01:46:31.000 We need a long-term study looking at children born in the 80s in a plastic-heavy country and children born in a country with no plastic.

01:46:40.000 Then, we need to take a similar data set.

01:46:43.000 Kids born in a country with no plastic but high vaccination rates, specifically from this brand, and kids born in countries with no plastic and no vaccination.

01:46:51.000 It is very, very difficult to accurately get the information that we need to figure out what's really going on.

01:46:56.000 This is the most effective measure, and I do think, no disrespect to Alex here, but I think connecting autism and vaccines is counterproductive to actually figuring out what's going on with our kids, because then they just say, oh, you're just a conspiracy theorist, like you said, but instead we should demand answers.

01:47:13.000 It very well may be that vaccines, that is the issue, right?

01:47:17.000 But until we demand answers and say, hey, why is this happening?

01:47:21.000 Why is there a dramatic increase in kids with autism?

01:47:23.000 Why do we have a dramatic increase in kids with learning disabilities?

01:47:26.000 I think it's plastics.

01:47:27.000 I think we will find that.

01:47:28.000 We need a demand for that research and that information.

01:47:30.000 I think it could be a combination of both, but, I mean, listen, just, everybody, do not listen to me, I do not want to keep spewing medical facts on here, but everybody needs to go watch the documentary Vaxxed with Del Bigtree, and that, I know Tim, I'm just saying, that will have some stats in there.

01:47:43.000 You're going to say, even when they question Big Pharma, they have to say, oh well, you're right, these numbers are weird, and the scheduling is different, if we give them this at a lower age, they have less autism.

01:47:52.000 But they say correlation does not mean causation.

01:47:54.000 So I've seen the numbers.

01:47:55.000 I mean, I've watched documentaries with the numbers in it, whatever.

01:47:57.000 But my point is, these are real numbers from real agencies, and they look us in the face and say, oh, well, I know you're putting two and two together, but sorry, it equals five, not four.

01:48:07.000 Yeah, rather than say that it causes, I think saying it may be contributing to it.

01:48:12.000 Yes, may be contributing.

01:48:13.000 It does not cause.

01:48:14.000 That's a very good point.

01:48:15.000 Final thought, and we'll read more superchats, you know, because we've been talking about this.

01:48:20.000 It is really simple.

01:48:21.000 There exists, as hard as it may be, a trustworthy doctor.

01:48:27.000 They exist, and maybe you're right, it's 99%.

01:48:30.000 That means you've got to make 100 phone calls before you find them.

01:48:32.000 If you really do think you want sound medical advice, you better make 100 phone calls.

01:48:37.000 Well, Tim, I'll be honest. 0.98

01:48:39.000 I looked at 50 different doctors before I got my penis enlargement, and I chose the wrong one. 0.97

01:48:44.000 And I'm paying for it every day, so... I'm sorry about that, man. 0.98

01:48:44.000 Uh-oh. 0.98

01:48:47.000 Too big!

01:48:48.000 Too big, you know?

01:48:49.000 Yeah, clear the way.

01:48:49.000 Alright, let's read some more.

01:48:51.000 Turkey Robot says, thanks for the shoutout, Tim.

01:48:53.000 If you liked that symbolism of the authoritarian regime in Silence Do Good, you're going to love the rest of the series, by the way.

01:48:58.000 That president is based off Gavin Newsom.

01:49:00.000 It may end up predicting the future.

01:49:02.000 It's a really cool picture.

01:49:03.000 It's clearly, you know, Biden standing there going, ah, but the symbol for the authoritarian regime, it's a red line and then a blue line going up and over.

01:49:12.000 That was brilliant.

01:49:13.000 Very, very well done.

01:49:14.000 I like how it was written, man.

01:49:16.000 You guys, that was really good because you took, it was almost cliche, but it wasn't.

01:49:20.000 It became a very high-powered, fast action movie within like six pages.

01:49:24.000 I really like that.

01:49:26.000 All right.

01:49:28.000 Paul Tascalo says that DeSantis' video was awful. 0.68

01:49:31.000 That came across to me as anti-gay, very divisive. 0.95

01:49:34.000 Trashing Trump because he isn't being mean enough to gay people. 0.88

01:49:37.000 That is the best DeSantis can do. 0.99

01:49:38.000 The DeSantis team is horrible. 0.97

01:49:40.000 What DeSantis did in that video that I disagree with is that he conflated the current issue of the weird grooming of kids with eight years ago Trump being like, hey, if you're gay, it's all right. 0.98

01:49:52.000 You know?

01:49:53.000 It did come off a little homophobic, the video.

01:49:58.000 The Santas one.

01:49:59.000 I don't like that term, I don't know if it means anything.

01:50:02.000 Yeah, I know, they call me homophobic, but I'm just saying it did seem a little bit like

01:50:05.000 Trump loves gays, I don't.

01:50:06.000 Yeah, right, right.

01:50:07.000 It did have that vibe, yeah, I mean, it's just...

01:50:09.000 Like the issue we have is...

01:50:10.000 I thought it was funny.

01:50:11.000 I'm not saying it was that bad, but that is the vibe it gave.

01:50:13.000 Like, Trump holding a flag, and I put him in jail!

01:50:17.000 First I heard Trump say that he would encourage a trans woman to use a bathroom with other girls, so I don't know how he still feels about that.

01:50:26.000 With Caitlyn Jenner, what did he say about Caitlyn Jenner?

01:50:27.000 Well, that was a big deal when Caitlyn Jenner went and pooped in Trump Plaza or whatever, but he would let Caitlyn Jenner go to his house, so Caitlyn Jenner is probably a one-off. 0.55

01:50:35.000 Yeah, I think he really doesn't care, but once you start to understand what is happening to kids, then... I don't like the way they prop up Caitlyn.

01:50:40.000 Let's, uh, let's read some more.

01:50:42.000 Kane Abel says, RFK Jr.

01:50:43.000 is a Democrat and has stated he is willing to work with the parties.

01:50:46.000 I am voting for Trump 2024.

01:50:48.000 Trump for the scorched earth policy.

01:50:50.000 Fire them all.

01:50:51.000 Agreed.

01:50:53.000 Dave Murdock Art says, culture win!

01:50:55.000 After being stonewalled by Steam for 30 days and banned in China, Drag the Dead will officially release 707.

01:51:01.000 Pearl clutching zombie shooter starring Zayn, Dimaj, and Uncle Hotep.

01:51:05.000 Oh wow.

01:51:06.000 We're taking the space back.

01:51:07.000 Early access keys available.

01:51:09.000 Timcast want one.

01:51:11.000 You wanna try that game?

01:51:12.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:51:13.000 Send it to me on Twitter.

01:51:14.000 Hey, let me get one too.

01:51:16.000 I'm a big gamer, so.

01:51:17.000 That sounds fun.

01:51:18.000 There you go.

01:51:18.000 Kellen PDL.

01:51:20.000 Let's grab some more super chats.

01:51:25.000 Neboop says, Megan Kelly, when she grasped it, if you think these MAGA people will vote for anyone but Trump, you weren't paying attention.

01:51:32.000 Correct.

01:51:32.000 We cut the brakes on the Trump train.

01:51:34.000 MAGA, ride or die. 0.81

01:51:36.000 Just not into party politics.

01:51:37.000 And the dissenters people said the same thing.

01:51:39.000 They said, if it's Trump, they're not voting.

01:51:42.000 So, okay, then you get Newsom, I guess.

01:51:44.000 You're gonna have to let go of the cult worship for this one.

01:51:47.000 Everybody's been talking about Newsom.

01:51:48.000 Who would be his running mate? 0.89

01:51:49.000 Michelle Obama.

01:51:50.000 I think Michelle would be the president. 1.00

01:51:52.000 Yes, she will be.

01:51:53.000 I'm just saying, I think he would be her running mate.

01:51:55.000 Dude, it's gonna be Obama.

01:51:56.000 Remember you joked, if I could just sit in my basement in my sweats and talk on the phone and have a frontman, you guys laugh and think it's Joe Biden?

01:52:02.000 No, no, it's Michelle, and she will be president, and it will be Obama, Barack, running the country for eight years from his base.

01:52:06.000 Barack was just at the White House with Joe Biden for lunch earlier this week, I believe, so there's something going on.

01:52:12.000 It's like they know each other or something.

01:52:15.000 They give us the impression that the Bidens and Obama's get along.

01:52:19.000 No way.

01:52:20.000 They hate each other.

01:52:20.000 Remember Obama said never underestimate Joe's ability to mess things up?

01:52:25.000 And they knew that Hunter was smoking crack forever ago when he was vice president.

01:52:29.000 The FBI found a rental car with crack cocaine.

01:52:31.000 It's also because he was vlogging all of it.

01:52:34.000 All right, Alehad says, Tim, I love you, but you're wrong about the posting on Twitter.

01:52:38.000 In Twitter, you have to search to get that type of content.

01:52:40.000 It's not promoted like Google.

01:52:42.000 I did not say it was promoted.

01:52:43.000 If you post something on Twitter, it is available to the public.

01:52:46.000 That would be akin to putting up a big poster in the front window of your home.

01:52:50.000 Yes, people have to go and find it, but it is still readily displayed to the public, and you can't do that.

01:52:55.000 It is a crime.

01:52:58.000 What if you have it in, like, a pile of trash out on your front lawn?

01:53:01.000 There's, like, a picture, a nude picture, but it's stacked in a big pile of papers, and some kid goes up to it and sifts through the papers and finds it.

01:53:08.000 Yeah, that's different, because if you threw it away, I think that's... But we can create a million different scenarios, and ultimately it's just, ask the judge.

01:53:14.000 Ask some random guy that happens to be a judge.

01:53:16.000 That's how it works.

01:53:17.000 That maybe didn't even have the internet when he was a kid.

01:53:19.000 Yep, because this is how the law works.

01:53:21.000 The law is human beings who make mistakes.

01:53:23.000 It is remarkable to me, especially when you see in movies where someone will be like, did you sign the contract?

01:53:29.000 I did. 1.00

01:53:30.000 You're screwed. 1.00

01:53:31.000 Oh, that new show. 1.00

01:53:34.000 The Black Mirror episode.

01:53:35.000 Did you see the Black Mirror?

01:53:36.000 Did you watch the new Black Mirror?

01:53:37.000 Did a new season come out?

01:53:38.000 Yeah.

01:53:38.000 Oh, I love Black Mirror.

01:53:41.000 I haven't seen the new season.

01:53:42.000 The new season is just a series of horror movies.

01:53:45.000 The first episode is a Black Mirror.

01:53:46.000 The rest is just horror movies.

01:53:48.000 So I enjoyed it.

01:53:49.000 It's not Black Mirror, though.

01:53:50.000 It's just horror movies.

01:53:50.000 Oh, it's a new kind of show like Black Mirror.

01:53:53.000 No, no, it is Black Mirror.

01:53:54.000 It's called Black Mirror.

01:53:56.000 The creator wasn't comfortable doing the dystopian stuff, so he's kind of changed gears.

01:54:00.000 But in the first episode, there is a, I'm not going to spoil the story for you if you haven't seen it, there is a woman and she has her lawyer going over her contract and she goes, how can they do this to me?

01:54:08.000 And he goes, that's right here in the contract.

01:54:10.000 He goes, but what?

01:54:11.000 Are you kidding?

01:54:12.000 That's in there too?

01:54:13.000 Yep.

01:54:13.000 Well, then I'll do this.

01:54:14.000 Nope, that's in the contract as well. 0.69

01:54:16.000 Well, gee gosh darn it, I guess they got me.

01:54:18.000 That's not how law works. 0.95

01:54:20.000 You can be like, good luck enforcing that contract.

01:54:23.000 There are companies that have non-competes in New York.

01:54:26.000 You go before a judge, he'll be like, nah, tear it and throw it in the garbage bag.

01:54:30.000 It's done.

01:54:31.000 I've said so.

01:54:32.000 People don't understand that A judge can literally just be like, nope, have a nice day.

01:54:37.000 They don't like being overruled in appeals and things like that, so they try to be correct, but it's a human being who says, I don't think the law was intending that, so get out.

01:54:45.000 We should get some judges on the show.

01:54:46.000 But you know where that's a real big deal, though, Tim, is where the parent's getting divorced and one parent wants to transition their kid behind their back, and it's a judge who gets to decide, you know, who's right and who's wrong.

01:54:55.000 Yeah, literally.

01:54:56.000 So it's, you know, some judge that has nothing in, you know, Sean says, ATF's frame and receiver rule was vacated.

01:55:06.000 The ATF tried to regulate the sale of 80% receivers, which aren't firearms by law.

01:55:10.000 Firearms policy coalition just kept bending the ATF over a barrel.

01:55:14.000 Does that mean that guy, uh, what was this?

01:55:17.000 Uh, there are people who got arrested over that, weren't there?

01:55:18.000 Are they, are they going to get their charges dropped now?

01:55:23.000 You could buy kits where it was legally not a gun, and then you could get the parts to make and build your own gun, and they started going after people for it, so... Interesting.

01:55:33.000 Two A's winning across the board.

01:55:36.000 Let's grab some more super chats.

01:55:40.000 Another man says, from what I know, a lot of women get put on the pill to help with endometriosis.

01:55:45.000 Luckily, my sister said no.

01:55:46.000 What is that?

01:55:47.000 What is endometriosis?

01:55:48.000 Endometriosis is a rather painful condition, and it helps some women.

01:55:55.000 I believe scar tissue developing along your uterus.

01:55:58.000 Yeah, so it makes your time of the month very painful.

01:56:01.000 It can cause infertility, things like that.

01:56:03.000 And that's helpful for some women, and if that's the trade-off they want. 1.00

01:56:07.000 Yeah, I think you have to weigh the cost.

01:56:09.000 The problem with birth control is that women aren't really informed about the cost of birth control. 1.00

01:56:14.000 So if you have extreme pain because of endometriosis, maybe this is the best course of action.

01:56:19.000 But if you have bad cramping because you're not getting enough of a vitamin and they never test your vitamin levels, then probably birth control is not worth the risk.

01:56:28.000 It helps with cysts, too, birth control.

01:56:30.000 But, you know, they should know.

01:56:31.000 But it also is linked to an increased risk of cervical cancer and breast cancer.

01:56:36.000 We have to weigh the risks.

01:56:38.000 Yes.

01:56:39.000 And it can't just be like, oh, you might gain weight, because I think that's the biggest risk that doctors warn women about, which is not enough. 0.69

01:56:44.000 Endometriosis is a condition where the tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of the uterus. 0.85

01:56:50.000 That's what it is.

01:56:51.000 Oh, and that's another side effect of SSRIs is sometimes you overeat, weight gain, so that's not good if you're depressed to get fatter.

01:56:59.000 Alright, TKZ Graham says, while I'm for minimizing kids watching porn, jail for posting porn on Twitter is a bit much, why not just ban the account?

01:57:07.000 My response to this is, I find it remarkable that our society has eroded to the point where that is the assessment.

01:57:13.000 That, well, it's only people, you know, posting pictures of lewd and lascivious activities in public that kids can find, but maybe we should just ask them to stop.

01:57:20.000 It's like, okay, if that's your position, fine, but understand, 20 years ago, you'd get arrested if you did something like that.

01:57:27.000 What if it's a kid that posts it?

01:57:29.000 You get arrested for it.

01:57:30.000 Arrest them, throw them in juvie, or throw them in, like, a full penitentiary.

01:57:32.000 Like, dude, if you commit a crime, you get... Look, if you don't like the law, then change the law.

01:57:37.000 Don't just be like, we've decided not to enforce it.

01:57:39.000 Only here, though.

01:57:40.000 That makes no sense.

01:57:42.000 Like, you know, Ian, the interpretation of the law is not an argument.

01:57:47.000 Like, you know, you're like, OK, I know it's the law, but what if this happened?

01:57:50.000 What if this happened?

01:57:51.000 What if this happened?

01:57:51.000 Oh, yeah, because we're kind of talking about the morality of the law and the Internet.

01:57:55.000 It's so new.

01:57:56.000 So we need new laws.

01:57:57.000 So I'll give you an example.

01:57:58.000 Enforce them.

01:57:59.000 The law says that you can't take pictures of children and, you know, lewd pictures of children and share them.

01:58:03.000 So they've begun arresting teenagers for posting on Snapchat.

01:58:07.000 Yeah, even if a kid, if someone under 18, sends a picture of themselves to someone, they're distributing child porn.

01:58:12.000 The law does not say, not of you, there's no exception for it.

01:58:16.000 So they've arrested kids for this stuff.

01:58:18.000 And then judges need to, and they have, said, okay, no, the purpose of a judge is to be like, the law is not intending to destroy the lives of children because they're doing dumb things on the internet.

01:58:30.000 They'll get a slap on the wrist, don't post this stuff again, but it's very, very different from what we're trying to stop.

01:58:35.000 Well, in states like Massachusetts, they're trying to just totally make it okay for peer-to-peers to send nudes to engage in sexual intercourse. 0.89

01:58:44.000 Of any age?

01:58:44.000 Not any age.

01:58:45.000 Tim, you'll like this.

01:58:46.000 I think it's like 12 or 13.

01:58:49.000 So there's this girl, Michelle Evans, I'll just tell the story real quick.

01:58:52.000 She's actually being charged in Travis County because she was at the protests at the Capitol in Texas and she just took a picture of a trans person in the bathroom.

01:59:00.000 They weren't peeing, they were at the sink.

01:59:02.000 And because it is legal to take a picture of a person in the bathroom, even though she didn't take it, she transferred it and transmitted it.

01:59:09.000 She's being charged.

01:59:10.000 Wow.

01:59:10.000 Wait, is that the photo where there was...

01:59:13.000 No, it's just a trans person in the capital, in the capital, the Texas state capital, and they were just using the sink. 0.82

01:59:19.000 And because it was a picture in a bathroom, even though it wasn't pornographic, she's being charged.

01:59:24.000 MichaelTB says, Tim, you're wrong on the doctor thing. 0.96

01:59:27.000 There are many dirty doctors out there. 0.95

01:59:29.000 If you're not rich or you're in an insurance plan, you don't have the choice.

01:59:34.000 And then Jason Hudgeson says, Tim is arguing ownership of self, of mind, and termination, and everyone else is going, Ree, someone should do the work for me because I want them to.

01:59:42.000 You know whose doctor I'd go to?

01:59:43.000 I'd go to Prince Philip's or George Soros' doctor.

01:59:45.000 Or Bill Gates.

01:59:47.000 Maybe not Bill Gates, but Prince Philip, he lived to what, like 109?

01:59:49.000 Or whatever, 101?

01:59:51.000 Wow.

01:59:52.000 Good doctor.

01:59:53.000 Yeah, that's whose doctor I want. 0.82

01:59:55.000 But he's probably a lizard, so it doesn't matter.

01:59:57.000 I like talking to doctors about meditation.

01:59:59.000 They like it.

02:00:01.000 I can't stand defeatism.

02:00:05.000 If there's only one in a thousand doctors who are good, it is your responsibility to call the thousand doctors so you find them.

02:00:12.000 Ain't nobody gonna do it for you.

02:00:13.000 Prince Philip was 100.

02:00:14.000 Almost.

02:00:16.000 99.

02:00:17.000 Pretty good.

02:00:17.000 Yeah, man.

02:00:19.000 I agree.

02:00:19.000 When people are scared and they are going to a doctor and they feel like they have to make a split-second decision because their body's health is on the line, that's when I worry the most that bad information can really screw someone.

02:00:28.000 So you gotta just stay calm.

02:00:30.000 There's no rush.

02:00:32.000 Yeah, because listen, there are doctors that can help you out.

02:00:34.000 I'm not saying every single doctor, you know, wants you dead.

02:00:37.000 I don't believe that at all.

02:00:38.000 I'm just saying, generally, these doctors don't have... They don't have... They're not legally allowed to actually, basically, doctor with their mind.

02:00:47.000 They have to follow certain protocols.

02:00:49.000 And if they don't, they lose their livelihood.

02:00:51.000 So that's why I don't trust them.

02:00:54.000 There were doctors in the past that would prescribe drinking mercury.

02:00:57.000 I know, and one says you should prescribe cocaine.

02:00:59.000 I'm trying to find one now.

02:01:00.000 I wish I had a time machine.

02:01:02.000 I just say this, you know, I remember the story where some kid had a genetic disease and there was a cure for it and it cost a million bucks.

02:01:09.000 So the family sued the state being like, you have to give it to us because, you know,

02:01:13.000 we, the kid, because it exists.

02:01:15.000 And the state was like, we would have to get, we don't have the money to do something like this.

02:01:20.000 So my answer is, you are not entitled to any doctor.

02:01:24.000 You're not entitled to a good doctor.

02:01:26.000 You're not entitled to good medical care.

02:01:28.000 You're entitled to what you work hard to find.

02:01:31.000 And if that means every doctor is really bad, but one is one degree better.

02:01:36.000 It is your responsibility to find the doctor who's better than the rest.

02:01:38.000 Well, in Canada, you're entitled to it.

02:01:41.000 You're literally not, though.

02:01:42.000 Well, what about entitled to fire department?

02:01:43.000 The government saying you can go in and get a service does not mean you'll get good service.

02:01:47.000 Yeah, I know you're gonna get terrible service, but... And so you have no guarantee towards good health care.

02:01:51.000 Like, if you broke your arm, you know, you wouldn't, like, this is the problem.

02:01:55.000 There's people that are afraid to call an ambulance, and they'll call an Uber to go to the emergency room.

02:01:59.000 Well, I don't disagree with you.

02:02:00.000 Right, but my point is, you're not actually entitled to anything.

02:02:04.000 I get what you're saying, yeah.

02:02:40.000 Thanks, Tim.

02:02:42.000 I'm Hankler Brimelow.

02:02:43.000 I'm a writer for TimCast.com.

02:02:44.000 It's been a fun show with both of you.

02:02:46.000 You should follow at TimCastNews on Twitter and Instagram.

02:02:49.000 And if you want to follow me personally, you can find me on Instagram at Hankler.B and on Twitter at HC Brimelow.

02:02:54.000 Thank you so much.

02:02:55.000 Yes.

02:02:55.000 Thank you, guys.

02:02:56.000 I'm Ian Cross, and that was so fun.

02:02:58.000 I want to do this uncensored.

02:03:00.000 Please.

02:03:01.000 Please!

02:03:02.000 Please, let's do this uncensored.

02:03:04.000 Well, to that point, every vaccine is safe and effective.

02:03:06.000 We just want to make that.

02:03:07.000 It's all safe and effective.

02:03:09.000 Uncensored.

02:03:11.000 Where it gets hot and heavy and real.

02:03:13.000 It's Friday.

02:03:13.000 I think, we're not doing an uncensored one tonight, but what I've been thinking lately is like, if we're fully uncensored, we might not get the ad revenue, but we'll get more subscribers.

02:03:22.000 Like 10 bucks a month.

02:03:23.000 So maybe it would be wise to just go full hog.

02:03:25.000 That's why we do both.

02:03:26.000 Yeah.

02:03:28.000 Uh, we also have Kellan, am I right?

02:03:29.000 Yeah, the uncensored ones are fun, but I feel like we're not that spicy in general, you know?

02:03:35.000 Maybe we are, maybe we are not, I'm not... Anyway, follow me at KellanPDL, this one was a fun one.

02:03:39.000 You only said that because I was looking at him.

02:03:41.000 Alright everybody, thanks for hanging out, it's been a blast.

02:03:43.000 Uh, we'll be back...
