Transcript

00:00:00.000 you you
00:00:49.000 the rides in this country have been pretty bad They've been going on for quite a long time.
00:01:07.000 There was a lull in winter, as there usually is because people don't go out when it's cold and snowy.
00:01:11.000 Now things are starting to kick up a bit earlier than they did last year and the years before.
00:01:16.000 If you've been covering riots, if you're a journalist who knows this, you know that there really is a season for when the riots come out in the summer when it's warm.
00:01:23.000 And there's also, interestingly, a season for a lot of the illegal immigration.
00:01:27.000 Interestingly, under Joe Biden, we're seeing illegal immigration come sooner, and we're also seeing the riots start sooner.
00:01:32.000 I don't necessarily know what that means, but I can tell you.
00:01:35.000 Mainstream politicians and personalities are absolutely doing everything in their power to make it worse.
00:01:39.000 We had Maxine Waters come out and say, get more confrontational.
00:01:42.000 A lot of people felt like that was jury intimidation.
00:01:45.000 Now we got LeBron James putting out a tweet saying, you're next, and posting a photo of a cop.
00:01:51.000 He deleted this, but now it's triggering, again, all sorts of controversy.
00:01:56.000 Jack Posobiec over at OAN apparently is calling for a boycott of Space Jam.
00:02:01.000 I think this story together is kind of funny to talk about because it kind of, you know, meshes into the cultural issues that are going on today.
00:02:06.000 So we're going to talk about that issue.
00:02:08.000 We're going to talk about, you know, Black Lives Matter showing up in New York threatening, strangely, a white guy protesting for Black Lives Matter, threatening another white guy.
00:02:15.000 It's kind of weird.
00:02:16.000 But we also got some big news about Gretchen Whitmer, who got busted flying to Florida.
00:02:20.000 She's also being sued over, well, in relation to What happened with these nursing homes?
00:02:27.000 A lot of people right now are really upset.
00:02:28.000 Seems like Andrew Cuomo got away with the nursing home deaths.
00:02:31.000 Well, fortunately for us, we have one of the last remaining journalists on the planet, the legendary Charlie LaDuff, hanging out in studio.
00:02:38.000 How's it going, man?
00:02:39.000 You want to introduce yourself?
00:02:40.000 No.
00:02:42.000 I would say corruption.
00:02:44.000 I want the truth.
00:02:45.000 You knew Cuomo wasn't going to get rung up.
00:02:46.000 This is just politics.
00:02:46.000 Everything's a show.
00:02:47.000 It's a cycle.
00:02:47.000 I won't say corruption, I just, I want the truth.
00:02:51.000 Yeah.
00:02:52.000 You know, you knew Cuomo wasn't going to get rung up.
00:02:56.000 This is just politics. Everything's a show, it's a cycle.
00:02:58.000 It's a cycle.
00:02:59.000 Whitmer copied everything Cuomo did.
00:03:03.000 We took, oh, look, this is what we know about COVID, everybody out there.
00:03:08.000 The institutionalized elderly got wiped out.
00:03:12.000 And that's where the government is supposed to be looking out.
00:03:17.000 And if I can't get clear data from my governor, who copied the governor of New York, and we found out he was smoking the data, then yeah, we're going to court.
00:03:27.000 It's not corruption.
00:03:28.000 This is about how we all live.
00:03:32.000 You might be in an old folks home.
00:03:34.000 You might be in an old folks home.
00:03:36.000 I might be.
00:03:37.000 What about the people in there now?
00:03:38.000 What are we supposed to be doing with all these cameras?
00:03:41.000 We're supposed to be doing something that rights the community.
00:03:45.000 That gets this thing back on track.
00:03:47.000 That's why I said you're one of the last journalists, bro.
00:03:49.000 And what is this bug sitting here?
00:03:51.000 That's a stink bug.

00:04:09.000 A lot of people are mentioning they're familiar with your work, but just hearing you talk about this stuff.
00:04:14.000 Journalists today, man, they are, what's the right word, stenographers for the state.
00:04:19.000 They just, you know, whatever the governor says is true.
00:04:21.000 The FBI comes out with a statement like, you got it.
00:04:23.000 They don't do investigation.
00:04:24.000 They don't report.
00:04:25.000 They're just stenographers.
00:04:26.000 We'll get into all this stuff.

00:09:10.000 We really appreciate it.
00:09:12.000 Let's talk about what's going on with LeBron James.
00:09:15.000 This guy's causing controversy.
00:09:17.000 He tweets, then deletes, call for accountability in the shooting death of Columbus 16-year-old Micaiah Bryant.
00:09:23.000 James tweeted, then deleted a picture Wednesday afternoon of the police officer who was believed to have fatally shot Bryant, writing, your next accountability.
00:09:32.000 The problem, well, I'll read a little bit more.
00:09:34.000 They say less than 24 hours after he tweeted accountability, following former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin being found guilty, LeBron James turned to social media again to call for accountability in the shooting of a 16-year-old girl in a now-deleted tweet.
00:09:47.000 Ma'Khia Bryant, a young black girl, was shot and killed by a Columbus police officer Tuesday while yielding a knife and reportedly attempting to stab another female.
00:09:55.000 Brian's death has since sparked national outrage.
00:09:57.000 I gotta stop here and just give my respect to these journalists who literally have a video of the woman shoving, of the 16-year-old girl shoving a woman against the car, taking the knife and pulling it back and then thrusting forward and they say, reportedly attempting to stab.
00:10:13.000 Yielding.
00:10:14.000 Should be wielding.
00:10:14.000 It says yielding?
00:10:15.000 Yielding a knife?
00:10:19.000 Does that make sense?
00:10:20.000 I thought maybe you went to public school like me and you just... Read it wrong?
00:10:25.000 Read it wrong.
00:10:26.000 I didn't go to high school.
00:10:27.000 I was going to say something too.
00:10:29.000 No, it says yielding.
00:10:30.000 Yeah, it does.
00:10:31.000 Did you say yielding?
00:10:32.000 Are you implying that the author Hope Sloop from WKYC went to public school as well?
00:10:38.000 Okay, well, quickly, how do you spell yielding?
00:10:41.000 Y-I-E-L-D?
00:10:43.000 Are you sure it's not Y-E-I?
00:10:45.000 It's Y-I-E.
00:10:46.000 Okay, is there any shame?
00:10:47.000 In spelling it wrong?
00:10:48.000 Yeah.
00:10:49.000 Not really, I don't know.
00:10:50.000 Exactly.
00:10:52.000 Spelling it wrong, no, but if you write a completely different word than what you meant to write, that's a little different.
00:10:56.000 Right, right, right.
00:10:56.000 It's okay not to know nine times six, except if you're counting other people's money.
00:11:02.000 That's right.
00:11:03.000 So, when you're on the block, and you're facing that, why doesn't LeBron James shut up?
00:11:09.000 Why doesn't the media shut up?
00:11:10.000 Why doesn't the country shut up?
00:11:13.000 And why don't we move forward in a process where we're not gonna blow each other up?
00:11:19.000 I wish, man.
00:11:19.000 This is not entertainment!
00:11:21.000 This is killing us.
00:11:23.000 Yeah.
00:11:24.000 Why is LeBron James?
00:11:26.000 You know, the problem I have is this dude, when all this China stuff is going down with Hong Kong, the NBA takes a side of China over the protesters in Hong Kong demanding freedom, liberty, respect.
00:11:39.000 So this guy now has the nerve to come out and it's just like, I don't know, man.
00:11:44.000 Look, if you take out the fact that it's LeBron James, He's just another dude with Twitter.
00:11:50.000 Right?
00:11:50.000 But it is LeBron James.
00:11:52.000 And even LeBron James, if we could dial it down, he understands what he did.
00:11:57.000 That's why I deleted it.
00:11:58.000 Well, and that's... Maybe we give him some credit?
00:12:01.000 Yeah.
00:12:02.000 Like, maybe I went too crazy there?
00:12:05.000 Maybe we should calm down.
00:12:07.000 I just, I don't want any war.
00:12:09.000 You know what the problem is, though, man?
00:12:10.000 The reason he says things like this, I know he deleted it.
00:12:12.000 That's true.
00:12:13.000 So, fine.
00:12:13.000 Respect for deleting it.
00:12:14.000 For sure, right thing to do.
00:12:15.000 Maybe he could say, you know, I went too far.
00:12:18.000 I would do it.
00:12:19.000 But I made mistakes.
00:12:20.000 But look what's happening now in the wake of the guilty verdict for Derek Chauvin.
00:12:24.000 Which was correct.
00:12:25.000 You think the verdict was correct?
00:12:26.000 Guilty on all charges?
00:12:27.000 Yeah.
00:12:28.000 I don't think so.
00:12:28.000 Well, that's cool.
00:12:29.000 Guilty on all charges.
00:12:30.000 I'm not going to hate you for it.
00:12:31.000 It looked like murder to me, dude.
00:12:33.000 Yeah, but second-degree murder?
00:12:35.000 Like, manslaughter, I understand.
00:12:36.000 You know what I mean?
00:12:37.000 Like, I say, like, you could make an argument for manslaughter.
00:12:39.000 Well, first-degree murder is premeditated.
00:12:41.000 Yeah, second- Second is, you did it, and you knew you were gonna do it.
00:12:45.000 Or, you assaulted someone and they died.
00:12:47.000 And third, manslaughter's an accident.
00:12:50.000 Right.
00:12:50.000 Okay.
00:12:51.000 And third degree murder is like you're acting in a depraved, negligent manner that results in death.
00:12:55.000 It didn't look like an accident, and it didn't look like he meant to do it when he got up in bed.
00:12:59.000 So what's in the middle?
00:13:00.000 Second degree.
00:13:02.000 If we all believe in our process, if we love this country, and those are the rules, Oh, this guy just spilled beer on the computer.
00:13:11.000 Don't tell him it's beer!
00:13:12.000 It's fine.
00:13:13.000 Everything's fine.
00:13:14.000 Would it make it worse if it was water?
00:13:15.000 Probably got to get that off the computer before you blow it up.
00:13:19.000 My problem with that Chauvin thing is that when it came out that he was a high when, uh, that, that, uh, what's his name was high.
00:13:26.000 Floyd was high on that.
00:13:27.000 Fentanyl and methamphetamine yeah, and that he may have died from like heart cardiac arrest that maybe the cop wasn't Responsible and we're not it not only that but that the the prosecution's own witness said that Chauvin wasn't was legally allowed to use a taser and chose not so I was questioning whether or not like I have reasonable doubt that Did did the cop being there do it or was he so stressed that he would have died on the spot?
00:13:50.000 Anyway, I would say The second degree murder charge was the felony murder rule.
00:13:59.000 That if you commit felony assault against somebody and they die, you get charged a second degree murder.
00:14:05.000 Derek Chauvin was convicted under the premise that his detaining of George Floyd was felony assault on George Floyd.
00:14:13.000 Okay, see, you're too smart for me.
00:14:16.000 I mean, you're really paying attention to this.
00:14:18.000 All I know is I saw a dude, and I don't know about you guys, I've had my ass beat by the police, because that's where I come from, right?
00:14:27.000 I saw a dude acting in a crazy, irrational manner.
00:14:30.000 That's usually when police show up.
00:14:32.000 But I don't expect him to be dead at the end of it.
00:14:35.000 And sometimes it does happen.
00:14:37.000 But I'm looking at nine minutes.
00:14:40.000 Of a guy crying for his mama.
00:14:41.000 Get off his neck.
00:14:43.000 And he did.
00:14:45.000 Yeah, well, he's dead.
00:14:46.000 So, this is the thing.
00:14:49.000 I think a lot of people, like, I followed the trial.
00:14:51.000 I watched the trial.
00:14:53.000 Most people probably didn't.
00:14:54.000 Derek Chauvin's knee was not consistently on Floyd's neck.
00:14:57.000 Derek, Chauvin should have spoke for himself.
00:15:00.000 Yeah.
00:15:01.000 Like, I lost it.
00:15:02.000 I blanked out.
00:15:03.000 I have stress.
00:15:05.000 You know, you should have said something for yourself.
00:15:07.000 Got a constitutional right to the Fifth Amendment.
00:15:09.000 You absolutely do, and you decided to take that, and now...
00:15:13.000 I thought you said it really interesting.
00:15:14.000 Prison.
00:15:15.000 No one's certain terms.
00:15:16.000 The only reason Chauvin was convicted is because they burned the city down.
00:15:19.000 for the rest of his life.
00:15:20.000 So it's not a life conviction, but all the years combined.
00:15:24.000 LeBron James tweeting this, right?
00:15:26.000 We have a whole bunch of left-wing activists saying in no uncertain terms,
00:15:31.000 the only reason Chauvin was convicted is because they burned the city down.
00:15:35.000 That's not justice.
00:15:36.000 No, it's dumb ass to burn the city down.
00:15:39.000 But they did.
00:15:40.000 But show figuratively like they burned down a bunch of different buildings in the city and smashed a bunch of windows.
00:15:45.000 Whenever you say they burned the city down, you get all these journalists being like, false!
00:15:48.000 Minneapolis is still a city.
00:15:49.000 It still exists.
00:15:50.000 Did we mean they burned down a bunch of buildings?
00:15:52.000 Calm down.
00:15:53.000 You wanted to say, brother?
00:15:54.000 Yeah, you said earlier that this isn't entertainment, man.
00:15:58.000 People are treating this like reality TV, and it's destroying people.
00:16:03.000 They're forgetting that it's real life.
00:16:07.000 No, they live on the internet, bro.
00:16:10.000 That's true, right?
00:16:11.000 But there's a swath of America where it's really important, whether it be Black America or Blue America and all in between.
00:16:21.000 To some people it's really serious.
00:16:23.000 To too many of us, it's a ratings grab.
00:16:26.000 And I don't want to be that guy.
00:16:28.000 I want to be the guy that He tries to bring something, some content.
00:16:32.000 You used to work at the New York Times and where else?
00:16:35.000 Fox.
00:16:35.000 And were you the kind of guy that chased ratings in the beginning of your career?
00:16:39.000 I've never chased ratings.
00:16:41.000 Never.
00:16:42.000 I just figured if you did go work, it would do what it would do.
00:16:45.000 And mostly, journalism, right, doesn't get any ratings.
00:16:50.000 So you don't have to worry about it.
00:16:51.000 You can just be in the crowd with everybody.
00:16:53.000 That all changed, though, in the past several years.
00:16:55.000 Yeah, but now tell me, you might get ratings, but who's doing anything that lasts?
00:17:00.000 Look at anything we're talking about, anything we're watching.
00:17:04.000 Tell me, you out there, any of this stuff are you going to show your grandchildren?
00:17:10.000 One thing you're going to put in your drawer and go, I was alive.
00:17:15.000 Dude, dude, dude.
00:17:16.000 The likelihood that any of these journalists, I'm doing air quotes, would show their grandchildren the things they've done in terms of their work is laughable.
00:17:24.000 Could you imagine an 80 year old guy being like, Come here, little Billy.
00:17:28.000 This is when I wrote five pictures of Brad Pitt's junk.
00:17:32.000 I won an internet award for that one.
00:17:34.000 Oh, Billy, Billy, Billy, Billy, Billy.
00:17:36.000 It's gonna be in a book?
00:17:38.000 I met your grandmother when I worked at BuzzFeed.
00:17:40.000 Here's an article she wrote where she said, Trump is literally worse than Hitler.
00:17:45.000 I really don't think they're gonna be going to their grandkids and being proud of that stuff.
00:17:48.000 I gotta say, to make it all about me, my time at the New York Times, my wife kept everything I wrote.
00:17:57.000 And she cut them, and she put them in these big, gigantic clipbooks.
00:18:00.000 So there's three of these things.
00:18:02.000 That's what I'm saying.
00:18:02.000 They're like for my great-grandchildren.
00:18:05.000 And then all the stuff I wrote for the New York Times was bound in a book, and they translated into Polish, and it's coming out.
00:18:11.000 Wow.
00:18:11.000 So I feel like I just wrote about, you know, nice guy Nick, and easy Eddie, and regular people, and that's the, word of the stuff.
00:18:23.000 If you're doing, what would you call it, like human interest pieces?
00:18:27.000 All of it.
00:18:27.000 You take human interest plus news and you wrap it into something that somebody wants to read and is consumable.
00:18:33.000 This is the thing, you know, if they were writing articles where it's like, you know, Jenny's is, Genesis Bakery won an award, the community is very happy.
00:18:41.000 I think that'd stink, Puck.
00:18:43.000 Making you feel sick, huh?
00:18:45.000 If you read a story that wasn't particularly globally consequential, but it was a good story about the community and about the things going on, I think that's something you want to show your kids or your grandkids.
00:18:55.000 But these people at some of these news outlets writing about Brad Pitt's junk and like, you know, what was that one article?
00:19:01.000 It was like written by some feminist, like, what did she call it?
00:19:03.000 It was like guys with tight pants, you could see their junk.
00:19:05.000 Yep.
00:19:06.000 And it was like, look at all these guys in tight pants.
00:19:08.000 I'm like, congratulations, that journalism degree is paying off.
00:19:13.000 But here's the thing, journalism has become a ratings industry.
00:19:16.000 So they want the clicks, they want the ads.
00:19:18.000 Well, necessarily so, because the underpinnings of it have disappeared.
00:19:23.000 So you've now got to give people what they want.
00:19:27.000 There is a responsibility of people to... Back in the day, was it like one really wealthy person would subsidize a company to study and report on anything, regardless of its popularity or click-baity?
00:19:39.000 Yes.
00:19:40.000 It's a combination of factors.
00:19:41.000 Marketing was a big play.
00:19:43.000 So I think... Correct me if I'm wrong.
00:19:45.000 I don't know.
00:19:45.000 Yeah, definitely.
00:19:47.000 Reuters.
00:19:48.000 Do you know about the history of Reuters?
00:19:49.000 Thomson Reuters?
00:19:51.000 My understanding is that the news department was just in advertising for, like, legal documents or something.
00:19:55.000 I don't know the full history, so I'm probably getting it wrong.
00:19:57.000 But I've been to their headquarters a couple times.
00:20:00.000 My understanding was that they have a private business and the news outlet advertised their business.
00:20:05.000 So that was a big thing.
00:20:06.000 These newspapers would sell ads in the papers, they'd sell the paper itself.
00:20:10.000 So if you're selling the paper, you're covering your costs, you're selling ads, you're making more money, and the only place to get media was in these papers, then you want to sell as many papers as possible.
00:20:19.000 When you're competing with only a small handful of, you know, very powerful and big newspapers in a major city, you've got to make sure you're reaching a certain number of people.
00:20:26.000 So for a period, news outlets were trying to hit the lowest common denominator.
00:20:30.000 That meant the news coverage was always fairly close to the middle because they didn't want to offend the left, they didn't want to offend the right.
00:20:35.000 So they had to keep it fairly balanced if they wanted to maximize the amount of views they were going to get.
00:20:39.000 Nowadays, you have infinite choices.
00:20:42.000 You go online, you can get your news from anybody.
00:20:43.000 Sure, yeah.
00:20:44.000 So now everyone's like, screw it, let's just go... Give me what I want.
00:20:47.000 There are investors who will invest in a company that does nothing but crazy far leftist stuff, crazy far right wing stuff, and they're like, I got my finger in both outlets so I'm making money.
00:20:58.000 Silos.
00:20:59.000 Right, exactly, exactly.
00:21:00.000 You know what I know about Reuters?
00:21:01.000 When they built the new Reuters building in Times Square, I was there soup to nuts and I did a series of stories on the iron workers, the guys that lay the steel.
00:21:11.000 And the Mohawk Indians have been building the skyscrapers in New York since 1900.
00:21:16.000 Wow, really?
00:21:18.000 And there's a whole There's a whole genre about them.
00:21:25.000 And I took it to them and I said, do you know these guys?
00:21:28.000 Well, that was my grandpa.
00:21:29.000 Cool.
00:21:29.000 Well, that was my uncle.
00:21:30.000 What happened to him?
00:21:31.000 He fell and he died.
00:21:33.000 And I wrote the next chapter in that.
00:21:36.000 So I don't know about Reuters, but I know that I captured the Mohawk Indians in the next generation.
00:21:43.000 And that's what I like to do.
00:21:44.000 You know, I think one of the problems with news is It doesn't need to be the biggest story that's gonna change the world, where you're gonna win, you're gonna be put up on stage, and everyone's gonna cheer for you and clap.
00:21:55.000 It just has to be good stories.
00:21:57.000 Stories that are important for a variety of reasons.
00:21:59.000 Sometimes they're stories that are uplifting and inspire people.
00:22:01.000 Sometimes they're calling out bad behavior from politicians, exposing corruption.
00:22:06.000 Too much of the journalism we have today, you can't even call it journalism, it's tabloid trash, it's, you know, listicles.
00:22:12.000 That's why they're coming here.
00:22:14.000 They'd like to be talked to.
00:22:15.000 Somebody be straight with me.
00:22:17.000 I'm sure.
00:22:17.000 Definitely.
00:22:19.000 These hundreds of thousands of people that listen, they don't agree with everything you're saying.
00:22:22.000 No, mostly, like, it was funny, we had Will Chamberlain here.
00:22:24.000 You had Will Chamberlain here?
00:22:26.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:22:27.000 Not Wilt Chamberlain.
00:22:28.000 Not the stilt.
00:22:29.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:22:29.000 Will Chamberlain.
00:22:30.000 Oh, Will.
00:22:34.000 The conservative.
00:22:36.000 He runs humanevents.com.
00:22:38.000 He ain't no Will Chamberlain, I'll tell you that right now.
00:22:41.000 We disagreed, and everybody in the Super Chats are like, Tim, you're wrong.
00:22:44.000 Tim, you're wrong.
00:22:44.000 Tim, you're wrong.
00:22:45.000 Will's right.
00:22:46.000 But I guess so long as... You know, I'll tell you something that people like.
00:22:51.000 When you brought up your position on Derek Chauvin, and then I presented a counterpoint, you said, well, you know more than I do.
00:22:58.000 That's the kind of attitude people expect from a, what journalists are supposed to have.
00:23:02.000 That if you have an opinion on something, you're willing to say, okay, well, I'll learn more about it, and correct me if I'm wrong.
00:23:07.000 Who are you calling a journalist?
00:23:08.000 I'm a reporter, bro.
00:23:09.000 Reporter.
00:23:10.000 Honest guy, how about that?
00:23:11.000 You wanna know the difference?
00:23:12.000 Honest guy, how about that?
00:23:13.000 What's the difference?
00:23:14.000 I do my best, but the difference between a journalist and a reporter is a journalist went to Ivy League.
00:23:20.000 No, I'm just, I know I'm gonna get that BS from.
00:23:24.000 A journalist can type without looking.
00:23:26.000 Reporters do it with fingers.
00:23:29.000 A reporter drinks with the public in public.
00:23:34.000 And a journalist drinks in private with the public official.
00:23:38.000 That's what they do?
00:23:38.000 This whole thing about journalism.
00:23:42.000 You're a reporter.
00:23:43.000 That's all you are.
00:23:45.000 Yeah, but these people over at CNN, they're the ones sitting there.
00:23:47.000 Oh, those guys.
00:23:48.000 I mean, look at Cuomo's brother is Cuomo on CNN.
00:23:52.000 Fredo?
00:23:53.000 Fredo?
00:23:54.000 What a phony!
00:23:56.000 Dude!
00:23:57.000 I've been in the basement!
00:23:59.000 I'm coming out!
00:24:03.000 I'm coming up!
00:24:03.000 I've been in the basement!
00:24:05.000 You were found in the Hamptons on your bicycle!
00:24:10.000 Your brother's writing a book and throwing old people in the nursing homes who infect other old people!
00:24:17.000 Garbage!
00:24:20.000 That's what we don't need!
00:24:22.000 Sorry, that's my... I 100% agree with everything you just did.
00:24:26.000 Yes.
00:24:27.000 But that's the point.
00:24:27.000 These are journalists.
00:24:29.000 They complain every day about the insults and the threats against journalists when they're literally the brothers of corrupt government officials who do bits with giant Q-tips instead of actually telling the people, and they lie about having COVID.
00:24:41.000 Did you ever, Chris, me, you, I've never seen you on the block.
00:24:48.000 You're a rich kid.
00:24:49.000 I never saw you do any reporting.
00:24:51.000 Did you ever go to a nursing home?
00:24:54.000 Because I went to the nursing homes and I picked up the dead bodies with the body collector to get a look at the nursing homes.
00:25:02.000 Did you?
00:25:04.000 I mean, you're not the moralizer, dude.
00:25:05.000 I don't know who you are.
00:25:07.000 I didn't grow up with you.
00:25:09.000 I didn't!
00:25:09.000 No, he's the guy who covered it up.
00:25:10.000 Oh, come on, man!
00:25:12.000 And I got... It's not political.
00:25:14.000 It's fake theater, and we don't need it.
00:25:18.000 Do some work.
00:25:19.000 If you got the work, I'll believe you.
00:25:21.000 If you can present it with some pizzazz, then I like you.
00:25:25.000 You are preaching to the choir?
00:25:26.000 Yes.
00:25:27.000 And they're all cheering for what you're saying.
00:25:31.000 The media industry in this country is just a bunch of people who are, like I said, what stenographers for the state are.
00:25:36.000 You got to pay.
00:25:39.000 You know, if you don't pay, then you're not going to get the highest quality.
00:25:43.000 Because to Defend the current reporter.
00:25:48.000 They got him doing 18 things a day.
00:25:51.000 You know, you are a stenographer.
00:25:53.000 The governor said this.
00:25:54.000 You don't even got time to check out what the governor said was right.
00:25:58.000 Yeah.
00:25:59.000 You're just pushing it.
00:26:00.000 I'm against it.
00:26:01.000 But you do have to assume anything Trump would say was wrong.
00:26:04.000 Yeah, that was the other thing.
00:26:05.000 Trump's a mess, for sure.
00:26:07.000 Trump's a mess, but there's some things he did That we're correct.
00:26:12.000 Like, the vaccine's here.
00:26:13.000 But how about, how about, for some reason the media always said he was wrong?
00:26:20.000 Like, come on, a broken clock is right twice a day.
00:26:22.000 If you're saying he's wrong all the time, we've got problems.
00:26:23.000 Well, the majority of the media did.
00:26:25.000 The ones wearing the blue jacket, right?
00:26:27.000 Yep, that's right.
00:26:28.000 And then the ones wearing the red jacket said he could do no wrong.
00:26:31.000 What about us?
00:26:32.000 Who wear the vests.
00:26:34.000 We're just here in the middle.
00:26:35.000 They're trying to get along, but they're gone, bro.
00:26:38.000 It's like... No, no.
00:26:39.000 It's the audience and it's us.
00:26:41.000 Yeah?
00:26:41.000 We're not gone.
00:26:42.000 That's true.
00:26:43.000 We're not.
00:26:44.000 We just want something.
00:26:45.000 I'll put it this way.
00:26:47.000 The guys in the red jackets, you know, they work for smaller and much less ubiquitous news outlets.
00:26:55.000 They're not the prominent mainstream corporate media in this country.
00:26:58.000 What?
00:26:59.000 What are you talking about?
00:27:00.000 Fox News?
00:27:01.000 Fox News is one channel.
00:27:03.000 You've got CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, HLN... I didn't say it wasn't... Everybody knows that... They're mainstream media for sure.
00:27:11.000 But reporters are mainly liberal, that's true.
00:27:13.000 I know, I worked at the New York Times.
00:27:15.000 But I'm agreeing with you.
00:27:16.000 I voted for Obama twice.
00:27:17.000 What I'm saying is... And Ronald Reagan.
00:27:19.000 You have much fewer of the guys in the red jackets than the guys in the blue jackets.
00:27:23.000 Yeah, but here's the thing.
00:27:25.000 How about we take off the jackets and just do what's supposed to be done?
00:27:29.000 Sometimes the guy in the red jacket's wrong, and you're wearing a red jacket.
00:27:33.000 That's right.
00:27:34.000 You're supposed to be wearing a non-collared shirt when you're doing what we're doing.
00:27:39.000 You're just regular?
00:27:41.000 Well, now you gotta call it as you see it, based in fact.
00:27:44.000 But check this out.
00:27:44.000 You got people like Matt Taibbi, Glenn Greenwald, and Michael Tracy.
00:27:47.000 Are you familiar with those guys?
00:27:49.000 Matt's a friend of mine.
00:27:50.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:27:51.000 Those are the legit guys that are wearing the vests.
00:27:53.000 There's very few people actually doing journalism, but they're the guys who'll come out and say something like, you know, Trump was right about this, that, and this, but wrong about all these other things, and Trump's got attitude problems.
00:28:03.000 As it should be done.
00:28:04.000 But why is it when you go to the New York Times, you go to CNN, they're wearing the blue jackets?
00:28:08.000 Look, I get it.
00:28:09.000 I'm not answering for him.
00:28:10.000 If Fox News is wearing red jackets.
00:28:12.000 How conspiratorial do we get?
00:28:13.000 No, no.
00:28:14.000 It's not conspiracy.
00:28:15.000 It's money.
00:28:16.000 We're trying to guess who they are, you know?
00:28:19.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:28:20.000 You were at Ground Zero as a security guard.
00:28:25.000 And I was at Ground Zero as a reporter.
00:28:28.000 And somewhere in there is the story.
00:28:34.000 Not so much.
00:28:35.000 You know, the city councilman today said that there's smoke from ground zero.
00:28:39.000 No, there was rivers of molten steel for months after the building came down underneath the pile.
00:28:45.000 Just molten steel flowing for months.
00:28:48.000 Remember that?
00:28:48.000 I want some physics behind that.
00:28:49.000 Did you ever see a doorknob?
00:28:53.000 Did you ever see a urinal?
00:28:55.000 No.
00:28:55.000 They were vaporized.
00:28:56.000 Not to hijack your show.
00:28:57.000 It means a lot to me.
00:28:58.000 Oh, if I might, not to hijack your show.
00:29:00.000 No, if you, it means a lot to me, I'm older.
00:29:04.000 It's the 20 year anniversary of nine 11.
00:29:08.000 And if you could maybe throughout the summer, think about it, read some about,
00:29:15.000 remember some of the names that would be cool because we're going to get it for
00:29:21.000 We're going to get it for one day, the big ribbon cutting and parade and speech and it's so much more than that.
00:29:26.000 It's all of us regular people.
00:29:28.000 That was our day.
00:29:30.000 Those who died, the secretaries, and those that came to pick them up.
00:29:33.000 The firemen, the cops, the regular dudes with long hair, just guys from Queens trying to do right.
00:29:40.000 Remember that.
00:29:41.000 Now think about this.
00:29:43.000 Somebody today who's 26 years old doesn't remember any of it.
00:29:48.000 No, I know.
00:29:48.000 They were a little kid.
00:29:49.000 That's cool.
00:29:49.000 But now they're reporters for these news outlets.
00:29:51.000 They don't get it.
00:29:52.000 They don't understand.
00:29:52.000 You know what they do?
00:29:53.000 That's funny.
00:29:54.000 They compare COVID to 9-11.
00:29:58.000 COVID's a natural occurrence.
00:30:00.000 Until we find out about the Chinese lab.
00:30:03.000 9-11 was mass murder.
00:30:06.000 And then it launched a bunch of bad stuff and a bunch of bad mistakes and we're still in Afghanistan.
00:30:13.000 That is a whole different deal.
00:30:15.000 So remember young people.
00:30:17.000 So this is one of the big issues affecting journalism today.
00:30:20.000 And people are starting to finally get it.
00:30:22.000 I'm wondering, we had this lefty guy on the show.
00:30:25.000 What's his name?
00:30:26.000 Vosh.
00:30:27.000 Is he alright?
00:30:28.000 I think.
00:30:28.000 Well, I completely disagree with a lot of his opinions.
00:30:30.000 Did he have a tail?
00:30:31.000 Did what?
00:30:32.000 Did he have a tail?
00:30:32.000 No, no, he's a normal guy.
00:30:34.000 He was a normal guy.
00:30:35.000 Yeah.
00:30:37.000 He's good.
00:30:37.000 He's good.
00:30:38.000 We had a long, long argument.
00:30:39.000 And I think one of the important things that came up was like when I would reference Occupy Wall Street, he was like, oh, I was a teenager.
00:30:45.000 I don't remember any of that.
00:30:45.000 That was brilliant, by the way.
00:30:47.000 What was?
00:30:48.000 Occupy Wall Street.
00:30:49.000 Oh yeah, so look, I'm down there and I'm in my 20s.
00:30:52.000 Brilliant coverage.
00:30:53.000 I remember all this stuff.
00:30:54.000 He was a teenager who wasn't paying attention to politics.
00:30:57.000 So what happens when you get somebody who doesn't understand the financial crisis, the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, 9-11, and now their prominent media personality is influencing more young people, it's no surprise you have a lot of young people who have a particular political persuasion and they're all kind of in agreement with each other around the same age.
00:31:13.000 Because they don't remember the same things we remember.
00:31:15.000 Right.
00:31:16.000 They don't remember what Joe Biden did or Barack Obama did during those years.
00:31:19.000 No offense to them.
00:31:20.000 So when I, right, right.
00:31:21.000 So when I'm like, here's what I don't like Joe Biden and I'll reference maybe like the
00:31:25.000 extra extra judicial assassinations that Obama carried out.
00:31:29.000 I mean, the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki, Abdulrahman al-Awlaki is two very prominent,
00:31:32.000 notable instances.
00:31:34.000 They don't remember that.
00:31:36.000 They were like, I was 13, I have no idea what that is.
00:31:37.000 One of the most important parts is witnessing the militarization of the United States after 9-11.
00:31:42.000 Like, 1998, we were not a military age.
00:31:46.000 Dude, dude.
00:31:47.000 You could go into an airport.
00:31:48.000 You could stand at the gate and wait for your family to come out.
00:31:52.000 And we weren't at war.
00:31:53.000 It was crazy, dude.
00:31:54.000 And then after 2002, now, I think they can drone bomb any American citizen at any time with the Patriot Act, legally.
00:32:00.000 Yeah, it's insanity.
00:32:01.000 It's called extrajudicial assassination.
00:32:04.000 There will be no Che Guevara anymore.
00:32:08.000 There won't.
00:32:09.000 That revolution business is over.
00:32:13.000 It is.
00:32:13.000 Because we have drones.
00:32:14.000 We got all facial recognition.
00:32:17.000 So you can go downtown and burn stuff up.
00:32:21.000 You can go to the Capitol And you can do that baboonery at the Capitol, but it's not getting us anywhere.
00:32:38.000 Don't do those things, but I think to your point, We saw a year of people going and burning down buildings across this country.
00:32:47.000 And tearing up the Capitol.
00:32:49.000 But tearing up the Capitol, those people have the FBI putting up billboards, the FBI saying, find out who they are.
00:32:53.000 They're going through facial recognition.
00:32:55.000 They're finding each and every single person.
00:32:56.000 Because that's the Capitol.
00:32:58.000 That's right.
00:32:58.000 That's different.
00:32:59.000 Gucci store is different to me than the Capitol.
00:33:01.000 Well, no, but they firebombed federal buildings.
00:33:03.000 Well, I like Portland.
00:33:04.000 I do.
00:33:04.000 I really like it a lot.
00:33:05.000 My kind of people.
00:33:05.000 I know they got a few few they cut him loose the prosecutor in Portland caught off
00:33:09.000 I think it was like four felony charges for for firebombing I don't know the specific charges, but something related to
00:33:14.000 that one one was one was felony assault on an officer So these people they caught they arrested they charged and
00:33:20.000 then as soon as Biden got in the prosecutor was like alright
00:33:22.000 You're free to go. Well. I like Portland. I do I really like a lot my kind of people, but if this is what you're
00:33:29.000 Wanting beware that's my attitude I'm like, I don't know.
00:33:34.000 I don't live in Portland.
00:33:35.000 So at this point, you know, I can, I can complain about the double standard for sure.
00:33:38.000 We all can.
00:33:39.000 If they're, if they're only going after one group of people and they're ignoring other group of people, it's like, we got to have equality under the law.
00:33:44.000 But I'll tell you this right now, my attitude on the police at this point, if people voted for abolishing the police, And all of our arguments fell flat.
00:33:54.000 Nobody's doing that.
00:33:56.000 Minneapolis did.
00:33:57.000 It's more Tweety stuff.
00:33:58.000 No, no, no, no.
00:33:58.000 Minneapolis literally voted to abolish the police.
00:34:00.000 When was that?
00:34:03.000 City Council?
00:34:03.000 Fall of last year.
00:34:04.000 Yeah, then they backed off it.
00:34:05.000 But they already lost a bunch of the officers.
00:34:09.000 I know.
00:34:09.000 Then they started dumping money to try and get them back.
00:34:11.000 Exactly.
00:34:12.000 Now they're arresting and charging the cops.
00:34:15.000 You see the Kim Potter thing, right?
00:34:17.000 Why'd he get a name drop?
00:34:18.000 Kim Potter?
00:34:19.000 Shout out to Kim Potter.
00:34:20.000 You know the shooting with Dante, right?
00:34:22.000 Yes.
00:34:23.000 Oh yes, yes.
00:34:24.000 There's so many of them.
00:34:26.000 The taser.
00:34:28.000 Right, right, right.
00:34:29.000 So let's go through this real quick, real quick.
00:34:31.000 This guy's wanted for aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon.
00:34:35.000 That's what aggravated robbery is, right?
00:34:37.000 He had a Ruger .45.
00:34:38.000 He gets pulled over.
00:34:39.000 Yeah, he's got a warrant on it because he was carrying a piece.
00:34:42.000 No, he had a warrant for robbing a woman at gunpoint.
00:34:44.000 Right.
00:34:45.000 So now, they also had a misdemeanor, a gross misdemeanor warrant for his gun.
00:34:48.000 So the question is, once again, there's a warrant out for him robbing somebody with a weapon.
00:34:55.000 So what, he made bail?
00:34:57.000 No.
00:34:57.000 He skipped the... So he made bail?
00:35:01.000 No, no, no, no, no.
00:35:02.000 He threatened this woman, and then he fled.
00:35:04.000 She called the police.
00:35:05.000 They issued a warrant for his arrest.
00:35:06.000 Okay.
00:35:07.000 He skipped bail on the gun charge.
00:35:09.000 So he didn't- I don't think he realized- So he never was bailed, he was- Right, he was never arrested in the first place.
00:35:14.000 He had a warrant for that crime.
00:35:15.000 There was a warrant, okay.
00:35:16.000 So, he gets pulled over and I think he didn't realize.
00:35:19.000 So when they were like, get out of the car, he says, for what?
00:35:20.000 According to his mom.
00:35:22.000 They get him out of the car, they cuff him, and then he starts resisting.
00:35:24.000 He pulls off, dives into the car, and then they're wrestling with him, and then the cop, Kim Potter, says, Taser, Taser, Taser!
00:35:32.000 She's holding her gun, though, the cop moves, she fires one shot into Dante Wright, he drives off, the bullet kills him, he crashes, he dies.
00:35:41.000 Is it justified to use deadly force against somebody who's wanted for an aggravated robbery charge, who was previously known to be in possession of a Ruger .45, who resists arrest, jumps into their car, and starts reaching for something or doing something out of sight?
00:35:56.000 Should the officer then defend themselves and the lives of others?
00:35:59.000 You want me to play God here?
00:36:03.000 Again, that's why we have a process.
00:36:05.000 Now, I've got the basics and I saw some video.
00:36:08.000 I can't be that guy.
00:36:10.000 I will tell you what I do know about life.
00:36:13.000 I know that a cop pulls him over and says he's wanted on a gun charge.
00:36:18.000 So immediately they think he's got some proclivity, maybe to be on the lookout.
00:36:24.000 They're talking they want to arrest him, he dives in a car.
00:36:28.000 Immediately, well I'm leaning, immediately The cop's already on high alert.
00:36:35.000 I don't know what you're reaching for.
00:36:37.000 Who the hell dives into a car?
00:36:40.000 I don't dive into a car.
00:36:41.000 I get pulled over.
00:36:43.000 I'm not the darkest guy.
00:36:45.000 My hands are here.
00:36:46.000 I know what's going on in America.
00:36:48.000 I don't dive in a car.
00:36:52.000 I know cops repetitively pull their firearm.
00:36:56.000 They don't pull taser.
00:36:57.000 They don't practice that much with taser.
00:36:59.000 But again, it tells me, maybe, sitting on my couch, she's not the most seasoned person on the street.
00:37:08.000 See what I'm saying?
00:37:09.000 I don't want to burn and I don't want to fight.
00:37:16.000 But I will.
00:37:17.000 So here's the issue.
00:37:19.000 There's no easy answer to these things.
00:37:21.000 So why are we trying to get one?
00:37:24.000 Why are we doing that?
00:37:26.000 In what way would you mean?
00:37:26.000 Like, so what do I think of it?
00:37:28.000 I think it's confusing and we gotta let it, it was right next to, you know, Minneapolis where the trial's going on.
00:37:35.000 So it's just, it's high alert.
00:37:36.000 We can't hold on.
00:37:38.000 The point is, so long as they keep burning cities down.
00:37:41.000 Nothing burned though this time.
00:37:43.000 Nothing burned.
00:37:44.000 They smashed.
00:37:45.000 They smashed.
00:37:45.000 a bunch of windows, they smashed, and one of the jurors in the Chauvin trial lived there,
00:37:49.000 and they had to drive through a city full of boarded up windows.
00:37:52.000 Maxine Waters said, if we don't get our conviction, and they weren't sequestered for that.
00:37:57.000 So listen, how are we supposed to have the law enforced?
00:38:01.000 If you got some guy who threatens a woman at gunpoint for $800 cash, and then should the cops go and arrest this person?
00:38:08.000 I'm not asking you, I'm saying rhetorically.
00:38:11.000 My position is, well, yeah, we can't have people going around doing that.
00:38:14.000 If the person then resists arrest and jumps into their car, should the officer then just submit and be like, oh, I might get shot, I guess?
00:38:20.000 It's probably getting that way, isn't it?
00:38:23.000 That's my point.
00:38:24.000 So at this point, I think the only reasonable solution for cops and for the people in cities is to leave.
00:38:30.000 Because if you live in an area where this kind of stuff is happening, between riots... Look, if you think cops killing people is a problem, and the cops are now going to get arrested in any instance where there's a police-involved shooting... Like, so going back real quick to the LeBron James thing.
00:38:44.000 This 16-year-old girl who got shot was literally pulling the knife back, ready to shoot, or ready to stab somebody.
00:38:50.000 And the cop shot her in defense of another woman.
00:38:53.000 And the people there immediately got mad at the cop and called him a murderer.
00:38:57.000 I don't see how you could be a smart person and think staying on the job makes sense when everybody wants you to leave.
00:39:03.000 Regardless of whether or not you or I or anyone thinks it's right or wrong, cops probably shouldn't be doing any of it.
00:39:09.000 If people say you're a murderer for trying to arrest someone for aggravated robbery, maybe you should stop doing that because the court of public opinion is clearly not on your side and you're going to go to prison.
00:39:18.000 I will say two things.
00:39:23.000 LeBron James was wrong.
00:39:25.000 He knew he was wrong.
00:39:27.000 And I'm gonna cut him some break here.
00:39:29.000 So the man can grow.
00:39:31.000 Because again, I don't want to fight more than we already are.
00:39:35.000 Two, we do have a problem with police.
00:39:39.000 It's not a majority of police.
00:39:43.000 We have a problem.
00:39:45.000 We gotta fix it.
00:39:47.000 Then I'll say this.
00:39:49.000 I know the measurements, but half of all people that die at the hands of cops are white.
00:39:56.000 It's like 61% I think, isn't it?
00:39:57.000 I could be wrong.
00:39:57.000 60% of the country is white, 20% is Latino, and 12% is black.
00:39:59.000 50% of the deaths by cops are white, 20% of the deaths of Latinos, and 30% are black.
00:40:03.000 is Latino and 12% is black. 50% of the deaths by cops are white. 20% of the deaths of Latinos
00:40:11.000 and 30% are black. So the Latinos are dropped by their proportion,
00:40:19.000 the whites almost, and the blacks two and a half times more.
00:40:22.000 There's a lot underlying that.
00:40:24.000 It's a problem.
00:40:25.000 I would submit this to you.
00:40:27.000 What kind of Latino people?
00:40:30.000 What kind of white people?
00:40:32.000 It's a class issue.
00:40:33.000 Yes, it is.
00:40:34.000 Completely agree.
00:40:35.000 Studies show you, the less bread you got, the more rowdy you are.
00:40:40.000 If you're from my corner of the world, that's what we do.
00:40:43.000 We party.
00:40:44.000 When you get loud and rowdy, the police show up.
00:40:48.000 I'm not diminishing a traffic stop, and I'm not diminishing what happened with George Floyd.
00:40:54.000 Oh, no, no, that's murder.
00:40:56.000 I said it.
00:40:56.000 Straight up.
00:40:58.000 I think Chauvin got what he deserved.
00:41:00.000 But if we could come together, because remember the rednecks at the Capitol?
00:41:06.000 What were they doing?
00:41:07.000 F the police, pig!
00:41:09.000 Right?
00:41:10.000 They really showed what they thought about law enforcement.
00:41:13.000 But you know why that was?
00:41:15.000 I don't, I wasn't there.
00:41:16.000 Well, so we have this year of lockdowns, where small businesses have cops show up, barricade the doors, arrest people, beat people, arrest families for violating COVID restrictions.
00:41:28.000 And then you started seeing these conservatives, these right-wing individuals, throwing the Blue Lives Matter flag in the dirt, stepping on it.
00:41:36.000 Are those conservatives?
00:41:38.000 Yes.
00:41:38.000 Oh, no, no, those weren't.
00:41:40.000 Yep, they were.
00:41:41.000 Those were A-holes, dude.
00:41:43.000 Really?
00:41:44.000 Like I was locked up and I'm angry?
00:41:46.000 Well, are we asking people to have some personal responsibility and aren't they included?
00:41:53.000 Oh, no way!
00:41:54.000 No, no, no, no, no, man.
00:41:55.000 When they shut down... Maybe I'm a misunderstanding.
00:41:57.000 When they locked down churches and sent the cops in New York to go arrest Jewish people and weld only the Jewish parts shut... Another problem!
00:42:05.000 You got people coming out saying the cops were disproportionately enforcing unconstitutional restrictions.
00:42:11.000 And even when you get the courts telling Cuomo, telling Whitmer, telling Wolf and PA to stop doing this, they would say, I'll just do a new executive order.
00:42:20.000 You can't stop me.
00:42:21.000 So at a certain point, the people on the right were like, yo, cops, why are you enforcing what the courts have already said no to?
00:42:28.000 And so they started throwing the Blue Lives Matter flags in the dirt.
00:42:31.000 Then when it comes down to January 6th, these people have no respect for cops.
00:42:33.000 They don't care.
00:42:34.000 Well, you know, because I know a lot of cops.
00:42:37.000 Cops treated me well during COVID.
00:42:39.000 Cops went to work.
00:42:40.000 In fact, here's where it's at, as I see it, as a reporter and as a man and a citizen.
00:42:49.000 The only government that even responds to you anymore in this country is the police or the paramedic or the firefighter.
00:43:00.000 Do me a favor right now.
00:43:01.000 Everybody call your congressperson.
00:43:03.000 See if you get a call back.
00:43:04.000 Call your mayor.
00:43:05.000 Call your city council person.
00:43:07.000 They only come calling on election season.
00:43:10.000 So we've asked the people, I don't know where you're from, but of my class, The paramedics, the cops, the firemen, to do all the work of the government, which is of the high class, and they don't answer us.
00:43:24.000 They just send factories overseas, right?
00:43:27.000 They give their nieces jobs, and we're over here with our pants around our ankles, our restaurants are closed, and you can't explain, you're coming into my shul, you're not letting me go to my mass, And you don't understand?
00:43:42.000 The problem, amongst other things, race is a problem, everybody knows that.
00:43:47.000 It's green!
00:43:48.000 There ain't no green in this country, and we're faking the green now.
00:43:55.000 That's a whole other worm, Ken.
00:43:58.000 I mean, talking about the inflation, the mass inflation by a bank, by the Federal Reserve.
00:44:02.000 Ah, he said it!
00:44:03.000 No oversight.
00:44:04.000 Everyone take a drink.
00:44:05.000 No, just kidding.
00:44:06.000 Drink responsibly.
00:44:07.000 And how that's devaluing our currency, creating more poverty, more class diversity, more stress that's causing, could lead to more unrest.
00:44:19.000 Oh snap.
00:44:19.000 people there's no oversight that's in that that I think is the real I got I
00:44:24.000 got it I got to just just call out personal responsibility like if there
00:44:28.000 are cops who wanted to enforce it look if you got people on the right and
00:44:31.000 they're saying we don't agree oh there he goes Oh if you got David Koresh never did it like this you got
00:44:41.000 So we have Wetzel of Energy drinks.
00:44:44.000 So if you got people on the right, and they're saying, we don't want the cops to enforce what the community opposes, and the cops say, we don't care.
00:44:51.000 If there's people who are like, we just want to cut hair, and the cops show up to a small town in Michigan and arrest some dude, or give him a fine because he was given haircuts.
00:44:59.000 Yeah, the barber of Owasso.
00:45:01.000 That's right.
00:45:02.000 You got people on the right saying, stop doing this.
00:45:03.000 The cops say, shut up, we don't care.
00:45:05.000 Then why would these people keep supporting the police?
00:45:10.000 You got a First Amendment right to peaceably assemble.
00:45:12.000 Let me put it this way.
00:45:13.000 And to speak.
00:45:14.000 Let me put it this way.
00:45:15.000 In Detroit, my capital city, it's the spiritual capital city.
00:45:19.000 It's the biggest city in Michigan.
00:45:20.000 I know Lansing's the capital, but Detroit is the capital.
00:45:24.000 A cop that starts that job.
00:45:26.000 Ready?
00:45:26.000 Drumroll.
00:45:28.000 You got it.
00:45:31.000 $38,000.
00:45:31.000 Wow.
00:45:33.000 America's most violent city.
00:45:37.000 Who in their right mind would do that?
00:45:38.000 We defunded the police in Detroit when we did the bankruptcy.
00:45:43.000 We took their salary.
00:45:44.000 We took a piece of their pension.
00:45:45.000 We took their medical when they retired.
00:45:48.000 So, if you want good police, you gotta pay.
00:45:52.000 And we need police.
00:45:53.000 You need high caliber people.
00:45:55.000 You need to pay for mental health for them.
00:45:58.000 Yes.
00:45:59.000 Do they go see me?
00:46:00.000 Does any community around here require the police to go see a counselor?
00:46:05.000 Just get it off your chest.
00:46:07.000 It's hard.
00:46:08.000 Benefits.
00:46:11.000 We don't have anything.
00:46:13.000 Get used to it.
00:46:14.000 Watch.
00:46:15.000 I suspect things are gonna get worse.
00:46:18.000 Something like 260 police departments got defunded last year.
00:46:22.000 Or less funded.
00:46:23.000 Completely removed, yeah.
00:46:25.000 Completely removed. Yeah, well, no no port like defunded meaning that they were taking portions of their budget away
00:46:30.000 like NYPD I think like a billion like like 20 something percent of
00:46:33.000 their budget. Yeah, this was predominantly progressives calling for defunding the police
00:46:37.000 Maybe it's because we don't have tax revenue Could it be a sleight of hand?
00:46:43.000 We're playing the political game, and yet we're broke?
00:46:47.000 Look at the federal government.
00:46:49.000 Where's it putting that money?
00:46:50.000 What did we just print in the last year?
00:46:52.000 Why is there such a thing as a black budget?
00:46:54.000 $8 trillion or something?
00:46:55.000 40% of all currency out there was made in the last year.
00:47:01.000 The charts look insane.
00:47:03.000 We must not be depressed.
00:47:04.000 We must be educated and right on, and we must figure out a way To respect each other, come together.
00:47:13.000 I know this sounds like a sermon, but I do believe that good reporting can give a good reflection of what's happening to us.
00:47:23.000 How do you deal with a multi-billion dollar news industry that makes their money off inflaming tensions between political faction, between classes, between races?
00:47:36.000 I left.
00:47:36.000 I don't know what you're doing.
00:47:38.000 I left, yeah.
00:47:38.000 We started our own thing.
00:47:40.000 I guess that's what you do.
00:47:41.000 No BS News Hour.
00:47:42.000 No BS News Hour.
00:47:43.000 That's your show?
00:47:44.000 Yeah.
00:47:45.000 I guess that's what you gotta do.
00:47:46.000 You gotta get away from it.
00:47:47.000 Thanks for the plug.
00:47:48.000 Oh yeah, we'll shout it out much more too.
00:47:50.000 That's a good way.
00:47:50.000 Become an example of another option.
00:47:53.000 You wanna go?
00:47:57.000 Run a John real quick?
00:47:57.000 Yeah.
00:47:58.000 Go to it to it.
00:47:58.000 We'll talk about we'll talk about Jack Posobiec in Space Jam.
00:48:01.000 I might sneak a cigarette with your hippies down there.
00:48:03.000 Shout out to Jack Posobiec who turned me on to putting coffee, peanut butter powder in my coffee.
00:48:12.000 Brilliant.
00:48:12.000 Thanks Jack.
00:48:12.000 Peanut butter powder?
00:48:13.000 Yeah, we got that peanut butter powder, a scoop of that.
00:48:16.000 Alright ladies and gentlemen, we got the story on Jack Posobiec.
00:48:21.000 Thanks, Pozo.
00:48:24.000 I don't know if he's serious, which is funny.
00:48:35.000 I think he's joking.
00:48:35.000 But I love how these tweets just end up getting news coverage.
00:48:39.000 So, Peace Promoter Pozo is his name.
00:48:42.000 Boycott Space Jam.
00:48:44.000 LeBron threatens police.
00:48:46.000 Alright.
00:48:47.000 The call to boycott the film comes after James posted a photo of a cop on Twitter.
00:48:51.000 He captioned the photo writing, James did delete his tweet.
00:48:57.000 As Pacific points out, he writes, The photos of Officer Nicholas Reardon, this we get.
00:49:05.000 All right, okay.
00:49:06.000 Space Jam, a new legacy, is being distributed by AT&T and Warner Brothers, blah blah blah.
00:49:10.000 Do plan on taking up Posobek's call and boycotting Space Jam, a new legacy, after LeBron James threatened a Columbus police officer who prevented a stabbing.
00:49:19.000 I'm assuming they meant to say, do you plan to.
00:49:21.000 Right.
00:49:22.000 I just read the articles as they're presented.
00:49:23.000 She is copy editing.
00:49:25.000 Yeah, seriously.
00:49:26.000 Give me a break.
00:49:26.000 I didn't even know there was a Space Jam happening.
00:49:28.000 This is the first I've heard of it.
00:49:30.000 I don't want to watch it anyway.
00:49:31.000 What is it, a remake?
00:49:32.000 Wait, hold on.
00:49:33.000 I'm going to pretend I want to watch it and say I'm boycotting it.
00:49:35.000 There you go.
00:49:35.000 I do want to watch Space Jam.
00:49:37.000 I love the OG Space Jam.
00:49:39.000 I'm a huge fan of it, actually.
00:49:40.000 Actually, yeah.
00:49:41.000 No, I had no plan on watching this.
00:49:43.000 Fun show.
00:49:43.000 Okay, I'm not going to watch it.
00:49:46.000 I wouldn't have watched it.
00:49:47.000 I'm not gonna watch it.
00:49:48.000 Although, I think a boycott.
00:49:50.000 I'm back.
00:49:50.000 Big fan of Space Jam.
00:49:51.000 I didn't wash my hands.
00:49:52.000 That was so fast.
00:49:54.000 Quick, speed is of the essence.
00:49:55.000 Just protect us.
00:49:57.000 Are you a Space Jam fan?
00:50:00.000 No, man.
00:50:00.000 Did you see the first one?
00:50:02.000 Michael Jordan and Bugs Bunny?
00:50:03.000 Yeah.
00:50:04.000 Oh, come on.
00:50:04.000 Grow up.
00:50:05.000 That's silly, yeah.
00:50:07.000 So were they remaking the original?
00:50:09.000 Oh, that's right.
00:50:10.000 You were children when that came out.
00:50:12.000 Yeah, it was good for us.
00:50:14.000 Of course you loved it.
00:50:15.000 When this came out and they had the Burger King cups or whatever.
00:50:18.000 Yeah.
00:50:18.000 What was it?
00:50:19.000 They had like the glass jar of jam.
00:50:20.000 Yeah, it was fun.
00:50:21.000 And I was so excited to go see that in the movies, man.
00:50:24.000 I think I was like 40 years old.
00:50:26.000 Yeah, I was like, what year did that come out?
00:50:28.000 Nah, you must have been 93 or something.
00:50:30.000 I was like 94.
00:50:34.000 I was just at the age where I could realize it was like really cheap propaganda.
00:50:39.000 It just seemed like propaganda.
00:50:42.000 They were using a basketball player to sell a product.
00:50:44.000 What product?
00:50:45.000 A movie.
00:50:46.000 He wasn't a good actor, Michael Jordan.
00:50:48.000 You're saying that they put him in a movie for the sake of selling tickets to a movie.
00:50:52.000 Yeah.
00:50:52.000 But I thought it was kind of cool that they took sort of like the Mary Poppins Yeah.
00:50:58.000 I liked it.
00:50:59.000 Yeah.
00:50:59.000 it back with Michael Jordan. You take animation and real people, because that's not really
00:51:04.000 who framed Roger Rabbit was in that.
00:51:06.000 I liked it. That was a good movie. At least one I remember that being a good movie.
00:51:09.000 Exactly. So they reinvented a genre. So this one is just a...
00:51:12.000 Just dominant.
00:51:13.000 How much money you need?
00:51:14.000 It was really high budget too.
00:51:17.000 You know what this is for?
00:51:19.000 They're trying to target people, like, between my age and Ian's age, who have kids, who are gonna be like, I remember Space Jam!
00:51:27.000 I wanna take my kids to see Space Jam!
00:51:30.000 This is an example of cultural decay.
00:51:34.000 Heavy... Hold on, hold on, hear me out.
00:51:38.000 Here come the Visigoths!
00:51:39.000 Name a Christmas song.
00:51:43.000 How old is that?
00:51:45.000 How old is that song?
00:51:45.000 Give me a more modern Christmas song.
00:51:47.000 What year was that song?
00:51:48.000 Give me a more modern Christmas song. Um, I'm dream. What year was that song?
00:51:53.000 Let me finish Christmas 1945 yeah, you try another more modern Christmas song. Oh
00:52:00.000 Santa got run over by rain. Hey, what year was Hey, what year was that song?
00:52:09.000 60s.
00:52:09.000 So how come?
00:52:10.000 I can keep going.
00:52:13.000 I think the most modern I can think of is All I Want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey.
00:52:18.000 I was getting there!
00:52:19.000 Every song is from the 50s, from the 60s.
00:52:24.000 Really, really old.
00:52:25.000 We're not writing new music.
00:52:27.000 Our movies are regurgitations.
00:52:28.000 It's not changing.
00:52:29.000 We're not making new things.
00:52:31.000 We're not inspiring people.
00:52:32.000 We are just saying, I'm gonna do what I did when I was a kid, again, with my kids.
00:52:37.000 Instead of, hey, let's write a new concept, a new movie, a new song.
00:52:40.000 Let's change it up.
00:52:41.000 We're stagnating.
00:52:43.000 Exactly.
00:52:43.000 Our culture is decaying.
00:52:44.000 When's the last great protest song since Kendrick Lamar?
00:52:48.000 I mean, you know, we're living in it.
00:52:50.000 Where's the music, man?
00:52:52.000 It's too corny and corporate.
00:52:53.000 Where's the writing, man?
00:52:54.000 Bro, bro, bro.
00:52:55.000 When the biggest protest movement- Where's the art?!
00:52:58.000 True.
00:52:58.000 Hold on, hold on.
00:52:59.000 When the biggest protest movement is on the same side as Walmart and Amazon, I don't think those are protest songs.
00:53:07.000 I think those are corporate jingles.
00:53:09.000 Yeah.
00:53:10.000 I wrote a Christmas song.
00:53:11.000 It's called It's Christmas Time.
00:53:13.000 It's on YouTube.
00:53:14.000 That's it.
00:53:15.000 Can you hum a few bars?
00:53:16.000 I wrote it.
00:53:16.000 Ian wrote it.
00:53:17.000 It's Christmas time, something, something, something.
00:53:20.000 You don't even know your own song!
00:53:22.000 I haven't listened to it in like 12 years, but I wrote it.
00:53:24.000 It could be refined.
00:53:27.000 I'll say this, I'll say this.
00:53:29.000 Don't boycott Space Jam because LeBron James tweeted something dumb.
00:53:34.000 Boycott regurgitations.
00:53:36.000 Demand something new.
00:53:37.000 Thank you.
00:53:39.000 Or, you know what?
00:53:41.000 Maybe check it out when it comes on Netflix.
00:53:43.000 I'm looking for stuff to watch.
00:53:45.000 It's not gonna be on Netflix.
00:53:46.000 No, no, no.
00:53:46.000 Netflix doesn't do that anymore.
00:53:47.000 Okay.
00:53:47.000 Well, I guess it'll come out on Netflix like three years after this.
00:53:49.000 Maybe check it out and tell everybody else it sucks.
00:53:52.000 Look, I'm a sucker.
00:53:54.000 I still get Kentucky Fried Chicken.
00:53:56.000 I will go to Taco Bell.
00:53:57.000 Wait, are they sponsors of this show?
00:53:59.000 No.
00:53:59.000 I won't go to Taco Bell.
00:54:01.000 I'll go back to Taco Bell once you sponsor this show.
00:54:03.000 But I do do that.
00:54:05.000 I'm not a purist.
00:54:07.000 Yeah, sometimes you gotta use the corrupt system to fix the corrupt system.
00:54:09.000 I'm part of it, man.
00:54:12.000 You're making something new.
00:54:14.000 You're doing the No BS News Hour.
00:54:16.000 You got something new.
00:54:16.000 We're doing something new.
00:54:18.000 Should we hook up?
00:54:20.000 We should hook up.
00:54:21.000 You wanna do news?
00:54:22.000 Let me know and we'll get some good news going on.
00:54:25.000 Yeah, we're going to do news, we're going to do shows, we're going to do comedy, we're going to do movies, we're going to do sci-fi.
00:54:30.000 Because I'm sick and tired of every single thing.
00:54:33.000 It's been years, man.
00:54:36.000 You know what, I like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the superhero movies.
00:54:39.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:54:39.000 But come on, they're just making movies out of comics from 70 years ago.
00:54:42.000 Yeah, but at least I don't have to read them now.
00:54:44.000 Sure, sure.
00:54:46.000 It's a great modern adaptation of something that's really, really old.
00:54:49.000 At a certain point, Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and these guys were like, how about a guy who turns green and gets real strong when he's mad?
00:54:55.000 Well, actually, I think he originally turned gray.
00:54:56.000 But, you know, you get the point.
00:54:58.000 How about a guy who can jump over tall buildings and for some reason he has, like, ice breath?
00:55:01.000 It was they made something up and they worked on it.
00:55:04.000 It became popular because they worked on it.
00:55:06.000 Now everybody is just trying to say, I don't want to do the work.
00:55:09.000 I want what he's got.
00:55:11.000 Let me inherit your wealth and I'm not going to make something new.
00:55:14.000 These companies don't want to take the risks.
00:55:15.000 They don't want to make new, exciting things because it's a potential risk.
00:55:18.000 I got one.
00:55:19.000 I got one.
00:55:20.000 Yeah.
00:55:21.000 Christmas, old movies being made into new movies, old books, right?
00:55:27.000 Why can't we get a new Ten Commandments?
00:55:30.000 I'm so down with that.
00:55:31.000 I like that movie.
00:55:33.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:55:33.000 The movie Ten Commandments?
00:55:34.000 Yeah, I do.
00:55:35.000 Charlton Hathaway's Ten Commandments.
00:55:37.000 Oh, remake.
00:55:38.000 I thought you meant to actually write 10 new commandments.
00:55:41.000 I think more, even more important.
00:55:43.000 I don't know about that.
00:55:44.000 We'll discuss later.
00:55:46.000 Yeah.
00:55:47.000 The Manila principle.
00:55:49.000 That could be a pretty sweet.
00:55:51.000 I would love to play that role.
00:55:52.000 You look like you're getting it.
00:55:53.000 They're redoing Dune.
00:55:54.000 Wait, Jesus doesn't come till later.
00:55:56.000 And listen, I want to ask you something, Jesus.
00:55:59.000 When did you get white?
00:56:01.000 It took about 2,000 years, from what I heard.
00:56:04.000 It took the Romans.
00:56:06.000 They're redoing Dune.
00:56:08.000 Ian's really excited for that.
00:56:09.000 Dune?
00:56:10.000 Oh yeah, but I heard it might be woke.
00:56:13.000 Oh really?
00:56:14.000 I don't know many details.
00:56:15.000 Did you read it, Dune?
00:56:17.000 Wait, is that the one?
00:56:17.000 It was like a famous 80s movie, wasn't it?
00:56:19.000 Yeah, early 80s.
00:56:21.000 Lynch did one.
00:56:21.000 David Lynch did it.
00:56:22.000 Wasn't it the Doof and the Police?
00:56:24.000 I don't know.
00:56:25.000 Yeah, Sting was in it.
00:56:26.000 Sting.
00:56:27.000 He played Big Flop, right?
00:56:28.000 Yeah, he was actually really good in that.
00:56:29.000 It was a weird Lynch movie, but Sting was awesome in it.
00:56:32.000 It was, yeah.
00:56:35.000 They did monologues, like long monologues, which don't translate to film.
00:56:38.000 They're good in theater and in books.
00:56:40.000 They make a lot of sense, but not in movies.
00:56:42.000 They were doing inner monologues.
00:56:43.000 Yeah, it was really weird.
00:56:44.000 It would just show his face, and he's thinking, and you hear his voice for like...
00:56:48.000 Yeah, they tried to make a book into a movie without making it a movie.
00:56:54.000 And then in the 90s they did one with William Hurt and a Dune major TV movie, but they translated all that monologue into dialogue and it made it way more interesting.
00:57:03.000 We just need new stuff.
00:57:04.000 That's what we're doing.
00:57:04.000 Oh, so our vlog got age restricted.
00:57:07.000 Yes!
00:57:07.000 What's up with that?
00:57:11.000 We made a vlog from the house showing people the house.
00:57:14.000 Because the point is, one of the things I'm big on is we've got to make culture.
00:57:17.000 Which means you can't just sit around and complain about politics because politics is downstream from culture.
00:57:21.000 You need to make stuff to inspire people and build community.
00:57:25.000 And so I'm like, we're going to do that.
00:57:26.000 We're going to start a vlog.
00:57:27.000 We started a vlog.
00:57:28.000 Show them this joint?
00:57:28.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:57:30.000 So we got the ramps, we got the garage.
00:57:31.000 Oh, no, this place is a trip.
00:57:33.000 Totally.
00:57:34.000 No, you walk in here unexpected.
00:57:35.000 I walked in today like, what the hell is going on?
00:57:38.000 It's great.
00:57:39.000 Everybody's barefoot.
00:57:41.000 The computer's going up.
00:57:42.000 They're finding your IPN.
00:57:44.000 They're talking about Dracula.
00:57:48.000 I mean, it's like, what?
00:57:49.000 They got bows and arrows outside.
00:57:51.000 We launched race cars over the garage.
00:57:53.000 Going like 60 miles an hour.
00:57:55.000 And we put up this vlog and YouTube age restricted it.
00:57:58.000 No, you can't.
00:57:58.000 You can't.
00:58:01.000 It's not real.
00:58:03.000 As far as you know, YouTube.
00:58:05.000 So, uh, it's an antique.
00:58:07.000 That's not an antique.
00:58:09.000 What's not an 18?
00:58:10.000 That's real.
00:58:10.000 What is?
00:58:11.000 So we have a vlog, the age restricted it.
00:58:15.000 And so that's, I guess, that's, that's, that's, I just particularly annoying.
00:58:18.000 I thought I would mention.
00:58:19.000 What does that mean exactly?
00:58:20.000 You have to be signed and an 18 years old to watch the vlog.
00:58:22.000 And that's because they think.
00:58:23.000 That's actually kind of cool.
00:58:25.000 No, it's bad.
00:58:25.000 It means you can't put on other websites and you can't share it.
00:58:28.000 Okay.
00:58:28.000 But you're creating a new culture.
00:58:30.000 So you know what, if what that blog saying is for real.
00:58:34.000 Come find it.
00:58:35.000 Just lean into it.
00:58:37.000 We can't make it easy for you.
00:58:39.000 Give some effort.
00:58:41.000 That's why they put a restriction on it because they don't want us to actually influence people to be free independent thinkers who want to build and create and inspire others.
00:58:49.000 That's why I don't mind people taking to the streets, man.
00:58:51.000 Just don't tear it up.
00:58:52.000 I agree, man.
00:58:53.000 Peaceful protests.
00:58:54.000 Somebody messes with you, drop them.
00:58:56.000 I think peaceful, be disruptive, but not violent, not destructive.
00:59:01.000 Disruptive means like you kind of annoy people when you're marching down the street and you're kind of, you know, in the way a little bit.
00:59:06.000 It worked with MLK and it worked with Gandhi.
00:59:10.000 MLK got things a lot farther than what Malcolm X was saying, but never doing.
00:59:16.000 They set buildings on fire, they caused $2 billion in damage, and they got their conviction.
00:59:20.000 And the insurance company, you know the old argument.
00:59:23.000 No, no, no, the buildings in Minneapolis couldn't be rebuilt because the cost of rubble removal exceeded the liability insurance coverage.
00:59:30.000 Well, it's funny.
00:59:31.000 One of the buildings, I won't name the companies, but one of the buildings that got torn up got a sweet deal, a sweet package, sweet tax abatements and subsidies from the city of Minneapolis to build.
00:59:44.000 It's a multinational.
00:59:45.000 Yeah.
00:59:46.000 Why is, why are we doing that?
00:59:49.000 How did this happen?
00:59:50.000 Because they have a mainline to the mayor's ear.
00:59:53.000 Well, it's become American culture now.
00:59:55.000 I'll leave if you don't give me your children's breakfast.
00:59:59.000 You know, my child's school.
01:00:03.000 My child, you know, we do okay.
01:00:05.000 So my child doesn't get the federal breakfast program.
01:00:08.000 But I'm an elder.
01:00:09.000 I'm a man of this community.
01:00:11.000 I go see what they're feeding the kids.
01:00:13.000 Generic pot tarts and orange drink.
01:00:17.000 Our money.
01:00:18.000 Now, I think we all have to feed our children, right?
01:00:24.000 I'm not gonna feed your dad for his whole life.
01:00:26.000 But the kid ain't going hungry, not as long as I'm living on the earth.
01:00:30.000 How is it I pay, you reach in my pocket, for orange juice?
01:00:35.000 It went to Washington.
01:00:36.000 It went to Lansing.
01:00:37.000 It went to the school board.
01:00:39.000 And magically, my tax money for that child The orange juice transmogrified into orange drink.
01:00:49.000 Which is like food coloring, sugar, and water.
01:00:53.000 And it's vitamin C, so it's okay.
01:00:56.000 It's not okay.
01:00:56.000 They were supposed to buy orange juice, but they bought orange drink instead.
01:01:00.000 Why are we feeding our kids orange drink and generic Pop-Tarts?
01:01:04.000 When you could be giving them Biotrust.
01:01:07.000 That's right.
01:01:07.000 Could you imagine if in hospitals they fed patients healthy food instead of sweet drink?
01:01:15.000 Think about that.
01:01:16.000 A hospital, a place of healing, and they feed people the same kind of stuff they feed them in public schools.
01:01:21.000 Where'd our money go?
01:01:24.000 There are a lot of rich people eating a lot of fancy meals, I'll tell you that.
01:01:27.000 A lot of blue coat media sitting down with public officials being stenographers for them and having fancy dinners.
01:01:33.000 You know what I love about the media that hangs out with the swells?
01:01:35.000 They think they're a swell.
01:01:37.000 They also think they're a swell.
01:01:39.000 But you know what I always say?
01:01:41.000 You're a hound.
01:01:43.000 You're a poodle laying at the table waiting for a scrap to fall off.
01:01:48.000 Ain't nobody listening to you.
01:01:50.000 Not when the times get real.
01:01:52.000 You think they are?
01:01:54.000 Anybody out there reading the local business magazine?
01:01:58.000 Yeah.
01:02:01.000 I think, uh, just to, just to cycle back, uh, that the sugar industry is subsidizing, like the government in such a way that they're pumping sugar into the schools and the hospitals and the prisons.
01:02:15.000 And that's why we see orange drink.
01:02:16.000 There's some contractor, isn't there?
01:02:18.000 There's always a contractor.
01:02:19.000 Let's talk about what's going on with Whitmer.
01:02:22.000 Yes.
01:02:22.000 Because let's get into this big thing you're working on.
01:02:25.000 So we have this story.
01:02:26.000 We got this one from Click on Detroit.
01:02:27.000 Michigan Governor Whitmer blasts criticism over visiting sick father in Florida.
01:02:32.000 State leader reacts to criticism in interview with the Washington Post.
01:02:35.000 Oh, she runs for the Washington Post.
01:02:36.000 Right.
01:02:37.000 They're very favorable towards Democrats.
01:02:39.000 Click on Detroit.
01:02:41.000 You didn't cover it.
01:02:42.000 Sorry, guys.
01:02:42.000 You hearing me?
01:02:44.000 You didn't cover it.
01:02:45.000 And then click on his writing.
01:02:47.000 The governor of Michigan went to the Washington Post.
01:02:51.000 Yeah.
01:02:53.000 So what's up with this story?
01:02:54.000 Apparently she was criticizing people who traveled, criticizing Florida.
01:02:57.000 Then she goes to Florida.
01:02:58.000 No, we got it.
01:02:59.000 We are like ground zero for the United States in like raging pandemic cases, COVID cases.
01:03:07.000 Now, you know, right around Easter, Good Friday, everybody, I'm not going to lock it down again.
01:03:14.000 And now the date is coming.
01:03:17.000 I'm not a COVID denialist in any way.
01:03:21.000 You know, I try to be a good boy.
01:03:23.000 I respect my mask.
01:03:24.000 He's got his mask.
01:03:25.000 I caught it.
01:03:25.000 I'm over it.
01:03:26.000 That's why I'm not wearing it.
01:03:28.000 You know, I'm not a freak.
01:03:32.000 She says, uh, listen, don't travel to Florida because it's really bad there.
01:03:35.000 And they got, uh, this, uh, UK variant, uh, we and they, and I think maybe we got it from them.
01:03:43.000 Number one, her chief operating officer, who's in charge of distributing the vaccine.
01:03:51.000 Beats it down to Margaritaville.
01:03:53.000 She's in the Siesta Key or something like that.
01:03:57.000 And meanwhile, Whitmer on the day is telling Biden, give us the vaccine, unaware that the COO didn't order the 360,000 vaccines that were waiting for us.
01:04:11.000 Because she's down in Margaritaville with the teeny boppers while her 18-year-old son is back home with COVID.
01:04:19.000 So you're traveling around with teeny boppers, you've been exposed to COVID, and you're the chief operating officer of the state.
01:04:26.000 So I get on to the next one.
01:04:28.000 Spring break.
01:04:30.000 The Department of Health and Human Services, the chief medical director for Michigan, beats it down to Margaritaville.
01:04:38.000 They wanna play funny with me.
01:04:39.000 I know it.
01:04:40.000 You know I know it.
01:04:42.000 You gonna confirm it or deny it?
01:04:44.000 Cause you know I already know it.
01:04:45.000 But where's Margaritaville?
01:04:47.000 Like what are you referencing?
01:04:48.000 That'd be like the Gulf.
01:04:49.000 The Gulf.
01:04:49.000 Like we're from Michigan.
01:04:50.000 So these people are traveling down to the Gulf or whatever.
01:04:53.000 They're, they're, they're... Partying?
01:04:55.000 They're leaving Pandemic Central after they locked us down.
01:04:59.000 Governor told us all to stay put.
01:05:01.000 Try not to go down there.
01:05:03.000 Do the right thing.
01:05:05.000 And her two top health advisors are down there.
01:05:07.000 And we catch them.
01:05:10.000 Part three.
01:05:11.000 Did you go, Governor?
01:05:14.000 Did you go?
01:05:16.000 She did, didn't she?
01:05:16.000 Because I know you went.
01:05:17.000 She did.
01:05:18.000 Because I'm a reporter.
01:05:21.000 I know people all over the place.
01:05:22.000 There's nothing going to happen we don't know about.
01:05:24.000 But Click-On's not going to do it.
01:05:28.000 NPR's not gonna do it.
01:05:30.000 I'll leave it to you to ask why they won't do it.
01:05:33.000 This is germane.
01:05:35.000 So the governor now says, well, I wouldn't go on spring break.
01:05:38.000 I went to see my ailing father.
01:05:40.000 Snowbird Mansion, West Palm Beach.
01:05:44.000 My brother died.
01:05:45.000 My brother died three weeks ago.
01:05:46.000 That's not funny.
01:05:48.000 I couldn't be at his deathbed.
01:05:50.000 People couldn't go to funerals.
01:05:52.000 People couldn't see loved ones in the nursing homes.
01:05:56.000 And you're making some cockamamie excuse like this.
01:06:00.000 This is not leadership.
01:06:05.000 It's not.
01:06:07.000 Everything's turned upside down, brother.
01:06:10.000 Our children's lives.
01:06:12.000 They're manic.
01:06:14.000 They're sad.
01:06:15.000 They're confused.
01:06:16.000 Right?
01:06:17.000 They're staring at screens.
01:06:19.000 We did what we were asked.
01:06:21.000 We did not... We thought we were all rowing the boat together.
01:06:25.000 When you know the top three officials in Michigan did this, that boat has sailed.
01:06:31.000 And when I flew into Charlotte, North Carolina this morning, woo, that was packed!
01:06:36.000 I felt like Gulliver's Travel or Rip Van Winkle.
01:06:42.000 I haven't seen a crowd like this in a year and a half.
01:06:46.000 And I'm personally disgusted.
01:06:51.000 And you can parse You can fake it.
01:06:55.000 Here's what will not be written about the COVID response.
01:06:59.000 It happened in an election year.
01:07:01.000 History will not remember, this is the most important election of our lifetimes.
01:07:06.000 That's right.
01:07:06.000 Okay?
01:07:07.000 They won't remember the games that everybody was playing.
01:07:11.000 Everybody was playing.
01:07:12.000 Everybody!
01:07:14.000 Right, left, and middle.
01:07:15.000 History is a segment that's really interesting.
01:07:17.000 When people talk about the Spanish flu, for instance, often they don't talk about World War I.
01:07:24.000 They just have to read about it, and you're like, oh, wow, that kind of happens simultaneously for the most part.
01:07:28.000 There are a lot of times in history where people will reference something like the Great Depression, and then you've got to understand the context around World War I before it and what led up to these things.
01:07:37.000 But, you know, we do these things with history.
01:07:40.000 The story was the pandemic.
01:07:42.000 You're right.
01:07:42.000 In a hundred years, it'll be like the pandemic.
01:07:44.000 There will be a separate historical moment where they'll read about the election, but they won't be in the same context.
01:07:49.000 Yes.
01:07:50.000 How we got jimmied.
01:07:51.000 We got gamed.
01:07:52.000 Again, I don't want to sound like a denialist because I've never seen in my lifetime the hospitals overflow.
01:08:01.000 So that's true.
01:08:03.000 Do not even tweet me anything about that.
01:08:06.000 That's true.
01:08:07.000 But who did it hit?
01:08:10.000 One more time, the institutionalized elderly, the very thing the government's responsible for.
01:08:17.000 So when I see Fauci doing his morning talk shows, what is the nursing home strategy, sir?
01:08:24.000 Because we now know before COVID, 400,000 people died in the nursing home a year from communicable diseases.
01:08:34.000 Wow.
01:08:35.000 And 550,000 died from COVID.
01:08:37.000 We got a COVID every year in these places.
01:08:40.000 Now Biden wants to come with $400 billion to deal with it.
01:08:47.000 Okay, that's good.
01:08:49.000 But before we crack that money down a hole, you want to tell me specifically what we're doing?
01:08:54.000 Or are the orange juice contractors going to eat it up?
01:08:58.000 So you're talking about what they did with putting COVID patients in nursing homes.
01:09:04.000 Yeah, they took the positive and put them in with the healthy to clear out the hospital.
01:09:12.000 So I guess you're suing.
01:09:15.000 I'm suing the state of Michigan for this.
01:09:20.000 We've come up with an asterisk.
01:09:22.000 We have a death count.
01:09:23.000 And then there'll be an asterisk.
01:09:25.000 Vital record search.
01:09:27.000 So we add those in.
01:09:29.000 Okay.
01:09:30.000 When did they die?
01:09:32.000 They won't tell us.
01:09:34.000 How old were they?
01:09:35.000 They won't tell us.
01:09:37.000 What was their race?
01:09:38.000 They won't tell us.
01:09:40.000 And specifically, where was their primary residence?
01:09:43.000 Was it a nursing home?
01:09:46.000 Are you pulling Are we trying to hide statistical deaths to make it look better?
01:09:56.000 Because look, as you add more deceased people to a list and less of the deceased people come from a nursing home, you look like a winner.
01:10:05.000 Why won't you give it to me?
01:10:07.000 This is our data!
01:10:09.000 Why do I have to sue?
01:10:11.000 This is not the Soviet Union.
01:10:13.000 I think the reason's probably obvious, isn't it?
01:10:15.000 Because the number's probably bad.
01:10:17.000 Like with what Cuomo did.
01:10:18.000 Even as ripe today as we stand, we're no better than average.
01:10:23.000 Which is what we like to say in Michigan.
01:10:26.000 We did no better, no worse.
01:10:29.000 Until the data comes out.
01:10:30.000 Teach your redneck to count.
01:10:33.000 And he'll start counting.
01:10:36.000 What happens if it comes out and the data comes out and it shows that it's a lot worse?
01:10:40.000 That's bad.
01:10:41.000 Now, here's the thing.
01:10:42.000 What happens if they give me the data and it shows what they're reporting to be true?
01:10:49.000 Guess what I'm gonna do?
01:10:50.000 I'm gonna write that.
01:10:52.000 That's the honest and dignified and professional thing to do.
01:10:58.000 I just don't think we have journalism anymore.
01:11:01.000 You know, I guess we don't have real reporters anymore.
01:11:05.000 We do.
01:11:05.000 Should we just name a few?
01:11:07.000 But there's a small handful.
01:11:08.000 Okay, we'll name them.
01:11:09.000 Let's do that.
01:11:10.000 Before we dog the whole institution, it's not true.
01:11:14.000 I'll give you one, you give me one.
01:11:15.000 Ready?
01:11:15.000 Alright.
01:11:16.000 Paul Egan.
01:11:17.000 I can give you Matt Taibbi.
01:11:20.000 I can give you the national ones.
01:11:21.000 Christine McDonald.
01:11:23.000 So who are they?
01:11:24.000 Tell me who these people are.
01:11:25.000 They're people in Michigan that do good work.
01:11:29.000 You know, I'll give you that.
01:11:30.000 I'll correct myself.
01:11:31.000 There are a lot of good local reporters out there doing really good work.
01:11:34.000 I end up following a lot of these guys, men and women, when there's breaking news and it comes from a certain area or a certain city.
01:11:41.000 I know that for the most part, if you go to a local reporter, it's usually pretty good.
01:11:46.000 These people aren't the ones chasing the national story and grifting to try and make a buck.
01:11:50.000 The national people chase them.
01:11:52.000 Exactly.
01:11:52.000 And they should be paid more.
01:11:54.000 Right?
01:11:54.000 And they should be respected, and I don't want to dog them.
01:11:57.000 Because I know in Minneapolis, they're for real.
01:12:00.000 In Chicago, in L.A., I know.
01:12:04.000 Pancho Ortiz in McAllen, Texas.
01:12:07.000 That guy does both sides of the border.
01:12:09.000 Oh no, there's a lot of us.
01:12:11.000 So, we're not dogging reporters.
01:12:14.000 We're dogging the business.
01:12:16.000 I'll tell you this.
01:12:17.000 I think you're right.
01:12:18.000 I think I should correct my statement again.
01:12:20.000 The problem is the powerful moneyed interests that fund all this stuff are not the local journalists who are actually reporting on what's going on.
01:12:28.000 Give me it again, brother.
01:12:29.000 That's right.
01:12:30.000 It is these powerful national wealthy interests that are funding... Who runs the newspapers now?
01:12:38.000 Hedge funds?
01:12:39.000 Yeah.
01:12:40.000 They're tearing them up.
01:12:43.000 Well, the local newspapers are collapsing.
01:12:45.000 They can't compete with the national level.
01:12:46.000 Newspapers are over.
01:12:47.000 But I love newspapers.
01:12:49.000 You know why?
01:12:49.000 They're the best kindling for a natural fire.
01:12:54.000 There's nothing better than a newspaper.
01:12:57.000 Like in your fireplace?
01:12:58.000 Yeah.
01:12:59.000 It is.
01:13:00.000 I don't know what else you use to start it.
01:13:02.000 Yeah, you actually, you ball it up, make it, it helps get things going.
01:13:05.000 I mean, I mean newsrooms in general, right?
01:13:07.000 You used to have, man, it's crazy when I drive through some of these small towns, you see a big old, it's like the so-and-so gazette or whatever, and I'm like, they used to have a newspaper here.
01:13:15.000 Not anymore.
01:13:16.000 They don't even have a newspaper.
01:13:19.000 Because they can't compete at the national level.
01:13:21.000 The ads have become, you know, Google and Facebook contributed to this, but it's also that the New York Times can serve local ads.
01:13:29.000 So the big players dominate the market.
01:13:32.000 If you live in the middle of Nebraska and you go to these big prominent news websites, you're going to get ads for the middle of Nebraska.
01:13:37.000 You're going to get ads for your local grocery store.
01:13:40.000 So you don't need the local paper selling ads anymore.
01:13:43.000 And then if people are like, if I'm going to pay for news, I'm going to pay for the New York Times.
01:13:45.000 Why would I pay for a local paper?
01:13:47.000 So what I do with my podcast is I try in the week to do one big solid story.
01:13:57.000 So when I do it, that's ours and only ours.
01:14:01.000 And we beat everybody.
01:14:03.000 And you gotta chase us.
01:14:05.000 For instance, Saturday is the seven-year anniversary of Flint.
01:14:10.000 I bet you nothing was gonna happen in the great state of Michigan until I just said that.
01:14:15.000 They finally fixed the pipes, right?
01:14:17.000 Bring it.
01:14:17.000 I gotcha.
01:14:18.000 Hello, everybody at home.
01:14:19.000 I gotcha.
01:14:21.000 Hello, New York Times.
01:14:22.000 I got you.
01:14:22.000 Remember Flint?
01:14:25.000 They finally fixed the pipes, right?
01:14:27.000 Nah.
01:14:27.000 No?
01:14:28.000 Nah, man.
01:14:29.000 Still bad?
01:14:30.000 Nah, man.
01:14:31.000 It's like, you know what they got in Flint?
01:14:33.000 Orange drink.
01:14:35.000 They got that news click.
01:14:38.000 No, they didn't.
01:14:40.000 So it's still bad.
01:14:43.000 Ain't nobody drinking the water in Flint.
01:14:44.000 Yeah.
01:14:45.000 What'd they do to us?
01:14:47.000 Flint!
01:14:50.000 What else?
01:14:51.000 I was thinking like, I think it's always been bad for humans.
01:14:55.000 You know, it's always been like, we're struggling to survive.
01:14:57.000 We're lucky to be alive.
01:14:59.000 And now it's just less bad, but like, there's still lead in the water.
01:15:04.000 Like there's not feast.
01:15:06.000 We, we have clean drinking water, which is kind of a first in humanity.
01:15:09.000 I guess the Romans maybe started to.
01:15:13.000 So, it's not like it's falling apart.
01:15:16.000 It's never really been that great, you know?
01:15:18.000 Well, but look, come on.
01:15:19.000 You'd be better off in the middle of the woods finding a dirty puddle and drinking it than you would the water in Flint.
01:15:25.000 They had chemical plant runoff and they had lead eroding in the pipe.
01:15:28.000 Well, it's not that bad now, I mean, but... I would like to actually go back and have a muddy water in some land that's mine.
01:15:39.000 You know, like one of these...
01:15:42.000 BBC movies about the Vikings, where I'm running around, you know, shooting elk and stuff.
01:15:47.000 Yeah, I wouldn't mind that, but you don't live very long.
01:15:50.000 I thought we were supposed to be improving.
01:15:53.000 I smell rot!
01:15:55.000 That's what you've been talking.
01:15:56.000 I think, I think no matter how much technology improves, there's always the struggle of maintaining things.
01:16:02.000 Like we still have people who live in the middle of the wilderness.
01:16:06.000 We still have people with their, I mean, they're undiscovered tribes.
01:16:09.000 We could develop all the best technology in the world, and I still think there will be poor people who are living in squalor.
01:16:14.000 Yeah.
01:16:14.000 The world's getting crowded, isn't it?
01:16:17.000 Yeah.
01:16:18.000 Or as a great philosopher once wrote, What goes up must come down.
01:16:26.000 Spinning wheels going around.
01:16:30.000 Who was that?
01:16:31.000 I don't know.
01:16:32.000 DJ Thomas or something?
01:16:34.000 We could evolve to a place where humans are all like consciously aware, awesome, connected, unified.
01:16:42.000 Or are we always going to have a segment of people that are like dumb, like kind of dumb animals that need to be herded?
01:16:49.000 I kind of like both.
01:16:53.000 I like the dumb animal and the superhuman.
01:16:58.000 Because remember what Freud really said, break it down.
01:17:02.000 The civilized person and the animal person, the wider they get from each other, the more unhappy you are, the more anxiety.
01:17:11.000 The animal gives up his pleasure for longevity.
01:17:14.000 That's the civil person.
01:17:18.000 That's really... I thought he was brilliant.
01:17:20.000 That's really what's going on in our lives.
01:17:23.000 Are we gonna be animals?
01:17:24.000 Are we gonna be civil?
01:17:25.000 Or... I like being both.
01:17:27.000 You gotta have a good mix, man.
01:17:29.000 You gotta think long term, you gotta... But people don't want us to be that.
01:17:32.000 No, they wanna be short term.
01:17:33.000 They don't want us to be... They don't like the animal part of us.
01:17:37.000 You have to be nice.
01:17:40.000 Be nice at work.
01:17:41.000 Raise your hand.
01:17:42.000 Wash your hands.
01:17:44.000 Don't say the wrong words.
01:17:47.000 Tell it to the hand.
01:17:48.000 The animals get angry.
01:17:49.000 They start banging the bars and then they start ripping things down and blowing things up and that's what the government and the people in power are afraid that there's going to be some sort of chaotic I don't even call it revolution, but chaotic evolution or de-evolution.
01:18:03.000 So they're like, no, we have to create strict rules.
01:18:05.000 We want these people to be, to follow us, that we want us, we want them to use our money that we say.
01:18:11.000 And I think it's, it's holding us back from turning into like the homo sapien is going to evolve into some other type of hominid or some, a bunch of different types of hominids.
01:18:21.000 Nah, robots bro.
01:18:22.000 And like cybernetic hominids.
01:18:24.000 A brain in a jar connected to a car battery.
01:18:26.000 Yes.
01:18:27.000 That's exactly what we're about to become.
01:18:28.000 All the above.
01:18:29.000 That's one way to put it.
01:18:30.000 Psychics.
01:18:31.000 There'll be wild animal humans.
01:18:33.000 There'll be humans on Mars that are, like, bigger.
01:18:35.000 There'll be humans in deep space that are really long.
01:18:37.000 There'll be cybernetic humans.
01:18:39.000 We're gonna integrate ourselves with machines.
01:18:41.000 Maybe that's what you're gonna do.
01:18:44.000 No, that's what the goal is for a lot of these wealthy industrialists like Elon Musk and Neuralink.
01:18:49.000 They want to integrate humans with machines.
01:18:52.000 Well, why wouldn't we?
01:18:53.000 Because, look, Already we've tethered ourselves to one.
01:18:57.000 Dude, we're interfacing with these machines right now.
01:19:00.000 Yeah, but this one... Yeah, these for sure, but this one is part of me.
01:19:05.000 This phone is... And if you make it so I can stick it inside myself and never lose it at the bar, I might do it.
01:19:13.000 What if they hack it?
01:19:14.000 Well... And then start making you think crazy things and all of a sudden you just go nuts.
01:19:18.000 That's called marriage.
01:19:19.000 Oh, yeah?
01:19:22.000 Yeah, a lot of people are worried about the Neuralink stuff because there's so much we gotta discover, but my response to the Neuralink stuff, when people are like, would you get it?
01:19:29.000 Oh, I wouldn't get it.
01:19:29.000 I'm scared.
01:19:30.000 It's like, let the technology happen before you start talking about whether you're worried about it or not.
01:19:34.000 This is exponential.
01:19:35.000 If I went to you 15 years ago and said, would you want to put a tracking device in your pocket where the government can see where you're going and big corporations would know when you're pooping, you'd be like, no way!
01:19:45.000 I'd never do that!
01:19:45.000 Now you're like, I love this thing.
01:19:47.000 But I'd go like, what do I give for it?
01:19:49.000 Access to the summation of human knowledge?
01:19:51.000 I would be like, hmm, that's interesting.
01:19:53.000 Maybe.
01:19:54.000 In fact, we did.
01:19:57.000 So it's no use going back and asking the question.
01:20:00.000 We all knew that, right?
01:20:01.000 Yes.
01:20:02.000 Yeah, people are going to know our link right up.
01:20:03.000 Did you see Terminator 2?
01:20:04.000 You guys seen the movie?
01:20:06.000 I'll be back again. I thought it was like a dystopian fantasy when I saw it in the 90s and now I'm realizing
01:20:12.000 Whoa, dude, that might actually happen. That's crazy that machines could
01:20:18.000 We give over to this thing and then it takes control. Do you see the new Terminator?
01:20:23.000 Where, I guess, like, the machine nanoparticles infected the dude and he became a cyborg person or something?
01:20:31.000 So in, like, one of the later movies, I don't know, they made too many of these.
01:20:34.000 Like, I guess, what's the name of the kid, John Connor, is that his name?
01:20:38.000 He apparently gets infected by nanotech, which integrates him with Skynet or whatever.
01:20:43.000 And he was like... I guess the story was something... I could be getting it wrong, so correct me in the comments if I'm wrong.
01:20:47.000 He said something like, Skynet realized they couldn't win, so they decided to integrate with humans.
01:20:51.000 And they're like, quick, kill him!
01:20:52.000 I'm like, wait, wait, wait!
01:20:53.000 What's wrong with that?
01:20:55.000 Like, he's super powerful.
01:20:57.000 He's, like, basically indestructible.
01:20:58.000 He's still him.
01:21:00.000 He's doing his thing.
01:21:01.000 Wouldn't you want nanobots to be like, you know, it's like Tony Stark in Avengers, where he presses the button on his chest and then he gets a suit of armor.
01:21:09.000 Wouldn't you want to have superpowers?
01:21:12.000 Not only that, I'd like to be the governor of California.
01:21:16.000 That would be fantastic as well.
01:21:19.000 You don't get the analogy, do you?
01:21:21.000 Arnold Schwarzenegger.
01:21:22.000 Oh, you did get the analogy.
01:21:23.000 Yeah, Terminator.
01:21:24.000 We'll just take that out.
01:21:25.000 This is live.
01:21:28.000 What?
01:21:29.000 Imagine this.
01:21:31.000 You didn't tell me that.
01:21:32.000 You didn't know it was live?
01:21:34.000 I didn't mean that, Governor.
01:21:35.000 I didn't mean it.
01:21:36.000 I love you.
01:21:37.000 So imagine right now when we're all like, we're okay with these phones in our pockets tracking our every movement because of the powers we get from it.
01:21:44.000 I gotta say, like, okay, you gotta integrate with the machines, but you can also have superpowers.
01:21:48.000 You can jump real high.
01:21:49.000 Your hand can turn into a sword.
01:21:51.000 But bro, I just, I turned off location and I just want to check Facebook.
01:21:54.000 That's not how it works.
01:21:56.000 Even if I turn location off, am I being tracked?
01:21:58.000 Yes.
01:21:59.000 Yeah.
01:22:01.000 Really?
01:22:01.000 Yes.
01:22:02.000 And I told all the apps you can't track me?
01:22:04.000 Yeah, they can track you.
01:22:07.000 Welcome to the future, my friend.
01:22:08.000 The crazy thing is you don't know because the code is proprietary.
01:22:11.000 I actually thought I was getting away with it with a VPN and turning it all off.
01:22:15.000 You just don't know.
01:22:15.000 You don't know what the code is doing behind your back.
01:22:18.000 In order to connect to the VPN, it has to connect to a local tower first.
01:22:22.000 True.
01:22:22.000 And it has to register your device on that tower first.
01:22:25.000 But I'm VPN-ing it.
01:22:27.000 VPN protects your browsing.
01:22:29.000 So, like, if you're looking up, you know, pictures of dogs, they won't know you're looking at pictures of dogs.
01:22:34.000 But they will know where you are hitting that tower.
01:22:37.000 They can ping me.
01:22:38.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:22:39.000 Your phone has to be like, hey, this is Charlie's phone.
01:22:42.000 I want to do something.
01:22:43.000 I'm not gonna tell you what it is.
01:22:44.000 That's different.
01:22:45.000 So, yeah, you're being tracked.
01:22:47.000 Let me explain something to you.
01:22:48.000 You know that you have voice activation on that phone, right?
01:22:51.000 Yeah.
01:22:52.000 You can say, uh, what is it?
01:22:53.000 You know, you know that phrase?
01:22:54.000 I don't want to say it because I don't want to turn people's phones on.
01:22:56.000 Hey, Judy machine.
01:22:58.000 You say hello phone and it turns on.
01:23:00.000 Yeah.
01:23:01.000 How does it know you're talking?
01:23:03.000 Because you allowed it to access your voice.
01:23:06.000 And how does it know you're talking at that moment?
01:23:09.000 Um, because I pressed the button.
01:23:10.000 No, no, no, no, no.
01:23:11.000 You can activate it without pressing the button by saying its name.
01:23:14.000 What goes off?
01:23:17.000 We got one of the Amazon devices, right?
01:23:19.000 It's just sitting there in the room.
01:23:21.000 Listening.
01:23:22.000 But if I say its name, it'll turn on and say, what would you like?
01:23:25.000 In fact, if you go to your settings, you can look up the things you've said to your device, and it'll say, this was not intended for name of device.
01:23:33.000 That means your phone right now, in order for it to be able to know you used a voice activation command, the microphone is always on.
01:23:43.000 Always.
01:23:44.000 The way voice activation works, the way the voice to text works, you say a word, the phone sends that sound byte to a company that takes that sound and turns it into text.
01:23:59.000 Sends it back.
01:23:59.000 That means... Help me!
01:24:01.000 How do I get rid of that?
01:24:02.000 Throw it out the window.
01:24:04.000 That's the only way.
01:24:05.000 Well, you could use open source.
01:24:07.000 Wait, wait, no.
01:24:08.000 For the regular people.
01:24:10.000 How do I get rid of that?
01:24:11.000 You can't.
01:24:11.000 Then don't carry a phone?
01:24:13.000 No, no, no.
01:24:14.000 Carry a mini Faraday cage.
01:24:15.000 What's, what?
01:24:16.000 Alright, so a Faraday cage is like, it's a cage.
01:24:19.000 I love that it was Robin Williams and Nathan Lane in the Faraday cage.
01:24:23.000 Alright.
01:24:25.000 The birdcage.
01:24:25.000 The birdcage.
01:24:26.000 Great movie, by the way.
01:24:27.000 A Faraday cage blocks all incoming electromagnetic waves.
01:24:32.000 And outgoing.
01:24:33.000 And outgoing.
01:24:33.000 Is that an app?
01:24:34.000 No, no, it's a little box made of metal.
01:24:36.000 Okay, so you ever look at the front of a microwave and you can see that like you can kind of see in but there's a metal screen?
01:24:42.000 Yeah.
01:24:43.000 That's because the holes are the right wavelength to prevent microwaves from coming out.
01:24:47.000 A microwave is a Faraday cage because it has to keep all the microwaves inside of it.
01:24:51.000 If you put your... I'm pretty sure this works.
01:24:52.000 If you put your phone in the microwave it should put your phone like on untrackable because... But my head's gonna explode if I'm talking in my microwave!
01:25:01.000 Don't put your head in the microwave!
01:25:02.000 You could get a 5G, what is it, no, the 5S, or if you're Android, I think the 5S, and before, you could take the battery out, and that will- That won't, no, it won't.
01:25:12.000 I don't think they can track a phone without a battery in it.
01:25:14.000 Not the old ones.
01:25:15.000 No, I'm talking about when the battery's in it, not just here now.
01:25:18.000 These batteries are permanently in now.
01:25:19.000 Okay, get a burner phone.
01:25:21.000 No, no, no, that won't work.
01:25:22.000 Come on.
01:25:24.000 Why?
01:25:26.000 So the burner phone still has to register on a tower, right?
01:25:28.000 Yeah, but don't link it to your name.
01:25:30.000 Then if you at any point ever have that phone and your phone in the same place at the same time, the network will register both devices.
01:25:38.000 Do that a couple of times and the AI tracking these systems will detect a pattern.
01:25:42.000 This cell registration and this cell registration appear in the same time multiple times.
01:25:46.000 How far away should I use my burner phone or turn my regular phone off when I use my burner phone?
01:25:51.000 Leave your regular phone at your house.
01:25:53.000 Go a few miles for your burner phone.
01:25:55.000 But what if I turn my burner phone off and then use my burner phone?
01:26:02.000 It might work, but I'll tell you this, man.
01:26:03.000 Just go a couple miles.
01:26:04.000 You need to understand something.
01:26:07.000 I'm trying to understand something.
01:26:10.000 Do you have a Facebook profile?
01:26:12.000 Yeah.
01:26:12.000 Do you have any family members who never signed up for Facebook?
01:26:15.000 Yeah.
01:26:16.000 They have Facebook profiles too, even though they didn't sign up.
01:26:18.000 They're called shadow profiles.
01:26:19.000 I know that, I know.
01:26:21.000 So the point is, if they want to track your burner phone, it is as easy as making chocolate chip cookie dough.
01:26:29.000 I'm going to give you my number on my burner phone.
01:26:32.000 Don't do it.
01:26:34.000 Area code, not on this show.
01:26:35.000 Check this out, check this out.
01:26:37.000 9-1-1.
01:26:37.000 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:26:39.000 I was at a meeting in... Don't dial that number.
01:26:42.000 I was at a Google event.
01:26:44.000 Somebody will.
01:26:45.000 And I was there... No, you can't do that, man.
01:26:47.000 I was at a Google event with... Who is that famous war correspondent for NBC?
01:26:51.000 Richard Engel?
01:26:51.000 Is that his name?
01:26:53.000 Yeah, Richard Engel.
01:26:54.000 He went to Syria during the height of the war with his cell phone.
01:26:59.000 He brought his cell phone, his personal phone, with him to Syria.
01:27:01.000 And I was just like, bro, are you joking?
01:27:03.000 And he was like, no, why?
01:27:05.000 It's like anything on your phone, just consider it the property of the Syrian government at this point.
01:27:08.000 The moment you landed within their towers, they owned every bit of data on that phone, probably.
01:27:13.000 Instantly, they're tracking this stuff.
01:27:15.000 It's war, bro.
01:27:16.000 He didn't realize that.
01:27:17.000 You know what's funny?
01:27:18.000 Go ahead, brother.
01:27:19.000 I mean, I'm going off on another tangent about how the world is becoming all, like, observable.
01:27:24.000 We're all, like, becoming part of this Borg collective, whether we want to or not.
01:27:28.000 It's crazy.
01:27:29.000 Like, how are we going to navigate this new reality?
01:27:31.000 Well, you have to be smart, like he's saying, because our Supreme Court justice is on a junket to Dubai, and he's supposed to be in Israel, and he gets stopped for COVID, and he decides to spend three months.
01:27:43.000 The state?
01:27:44.000 The Supreme Court?
01:27:45.000 Yeah.
01:27:45.000 And he decides to spend three months in Dubai, but he says, I'm working!
01:27:48.000 And I'm like, are you doing conferences via Zoom?
01:27:52.000 You know, those are supposed to be secret.
01:27:54.000 Those are undercover.
01:27:56.000 Which cases we're picking, when we're discussing the merits of the case, and how we're gonna come up with a decision.
01:28:02.000 And you're doing it by Zoom?
01:28:04.000 And Dubai?
01:28:05.000 The government's got all that.
01:28:07.000 And nobody questioned it.
01:28:08.000 Yup, that's right.
01:28:09.000 It's no way to do business.
01:28:11.000 It's no way to run a government.
01:28:13.000 Yeah, they got everything, man.
01:28:14.000 Facebook, they know everything about you.
01:28:16.000 Facebook can predict when you poop.
01:28:19.000 They can because that's when I'm checking it out.
01:28:22.000 It's not just that, it's that based on simple things like when you last ate, they know when you ate because they're checking your location.
01:28:29.000 It's not even about whether or not you have location services on.
01:28:32.000 There's some services that have mapped out all of the local Wi-Fi signals from certain areas.
01:28:37.000 So, when you are- they'll have cars drive around, and they have a computer scanning open Wi-Fi signals.
01:28:44.000 They're not breaking into your Wi-Fi, they're just seeing who's broadcasting.
01:28:48.000 They then incorporate that into map data.
01:28:51.000 So that way you can use your map app, whichever one, without having access to a GPS.
01:28:55.000 Do we care?
01:28:56.000 I'm looking up Zoom.
01:28:58.000 Apparently it's owned by Eric Yan, Chinese immigrant, now an American citizen, but the company's development team is largely based in China.
01:29:04.000 Meaning all that stuff's property of the Chinese government.
01:29:07.000 Oh yeah, every communication you do on Zoom is probably in the Chinese server.
01:29:10.000 The Chinese government's got it.
01:29:11.000 Oh, so the Supreme Court Justice is...
01:29:13.000 Yeah, it's compromised.
01:29:15.000 This world is... Do we care?
01:29:17.000 Not... Yes!
01:29:18.000 I do, but... Are we gonna be slaves?
01:29:20.000 Well, like, how do we... How do we survive it?
01:29:23.000 That's basically... It's happening.
01:29:25.000 I mean, I'm not trying to, like, be like, stop!
01:29:27.000 Stop!
01:29:28.000 I don't want my life to be in the public domain, because it basically is, but... How do we survive that as a species?
01:29:34.000 The planet is becoming the Borg.
01:29:36.000 I don't want to.
01:29:37.000 Eh, you can't stop it.
01:29:38.000 So we have to leave the planet?
01:29:40.000 I don't know, man.
01:29:41.000 Just know if you raise chickens, you should feed them the eggshells.
01:29:44.000 Is that true, though?
01:29:45.000 I heard you're not supposed to do that.
01:29:46.000 I heard you're supposed to... We went to a vet for our sick chicken and said, make sure you don't get any eggshells in there.
01:29:50.000 Oh, no.
01:29:50.000 I fed him every two days with those things.
01:29:54.000 We had a sick chick, and they said, make some scrambled eggs for the chick.
01:29:58.000 Excuse me?
01:29:58.000 But just make sure you don't put any eggshells in it.
01:30:01.000 You're cooking...
01:30:04.000 Scrambled eggs.
01:30:05.000 That's what the vet told us to do.
01:30:05.000 For a chicken?
01:30:06.000 That's right, yeah.
01:30:08.000 Unfertilized.
01:30:09.000 And the reason they said not to make sure it doesn't get any eggshells is because then they'll eat their own eggs.
01:30:12.000 You sensitive man.
01:30:14.000 For what?
01:30:15.000 He was worried about his chicken.
01:30:16.000 It died.
01:30:17.000 He loves his chickens.
01:30:18.000 And it died.
01:30:18.000 Yeah.
01:30:19.000 That's how bad your cooking is.
01:30:21.000 Nah, it's just sometimes chickens die, man.
01:30:24.000 We brought it to the vet.
01:30:25.000 The vet was like, sometimes chickens are just weak and they don't make it.
01:30:28.000 The little babies, you know?
01:30:28.000 What do you think the vet thought when you walked in with a It was a chicken vet.
01:30:32.000 They were like, that's right.
01:30:35.000 They were like sticks on another.
01:30:37.000 That's right.
01:30:37.000 We got farms and they were like, their attitude was a customer is here.
01:30:41.000 That's it.
01:30:43.000 And they had chicken medicine and they gave it to us and they gave us a little thing you put in the chicken's mouth.
01:30:46.000 Cause there are a lot of farmers who had to treat their chickens.
01:30:49.000 Is there a pandemic going around?
01:30:51.000 No, but chickens have parasites.
01:30:52.000 Is it chickvit?
01:30:53.000 It's called, um, what's it called?
01:30:57.000 What was it?
01:30:57.000 What was it?
01:30:58.000 Well, what the parasite the chickens can get.
01:31:01.000 Yeah.
01:31:01.000 I forgot what it was called.
01:31:01.000 Trichinosis is the first thing that comes to my mind.
01:31:03.000 There was, there's, there's something they have.
01:31:05.000 I can't remember what it's called.
01:31:06.000 Coccidiosis.
01:31:07.000 Interesting.
01:31:08.000 That's funny.
01:31:09.000 Coccidiosis.
01:31:10.000 Yeah.
01:31:11.000 So they had to give a broad spectrum anti-parasites.
01:31:14.000 Coccidiosis.
01:31:15.000 You know, you know the red thing on the chicken's head?
01:31:17.000 The co- the comb.
01:31:18.000 Cock's comb.
01:31:19.000 Yeah.
01:31:20.000 But the chickens have it too.
01:31:22.000 And so like the hens have it.
01:31:23.000 So like we had some people like see the chickens and like one of them, like they're growing up.
01:31:27.000 One of them's got the little thing on and they're like, but I thought they were, I thought they were all girls.
01:31:30.000 I'm like, yeah.
01:31:31.000 They're like, but they have, has the red thing.
01:31:32.000 I'm like, chickens have that too.
01:31:34.000 Yeah.
01:31:35.000 Hens have that.
01:31:36.000 Do you guys feel like this last week has been dark?
01:31:39.000 What do you mean dark?
01:31:40.000 This was a Chauvin thing and the way the media... Yes.
01:31:45.000 I feel kind of like demoralized or like... I'm still reeling.
01:31:50.000 Like what?
01:31:51.000 Like a loss, a lack of hope?
01:31:55.000 It's Wednesday, man.
01:31:56.000 Don't worry.
01:31:56.000 The week's only half over.
01:31:57.000 It feels like Friday.
01:31:59.000 Buck up, bro.
01:32:00.000 I wanna say, too, we gotta go to Super Chats, but I just wanna point out, I think your Chris Cuomo bit is gonna go down in the show history of being, like, one of the best clips, where you're like, Okay, hold on, let me do it better!
01:32:13.000 Well, I'm coming out!
01:32:15.000 I haven't been out of here in a couple weeks!
01:32:17.000 Now go back down to the basement.
01:32:22.000 You gotta watch that again and watch his son's face while he's doing it because the son thinks he's such full of crap while he's watching.
01:32:28.000 He's like, dude, he has not been down in the basement this whole time.
01:32:31.000 He's lying.
01:32:32.000 He got caught and he admitted it.
01:32:34.000 It's crazy.
01:32:34.000 Oh, did you pop your headphones out?
01:32:35.000 I don't know where that goes.
01:32:37.000 Okay.
01:32:38.000 Here, can you?
01:32:39.000 We'll read Super Chats and then Charlie will pop his headphones out.
01:32:43.000 Oh, by the way, before we go, hey brother, it's good to see you again.
01:32:47.000 Oh yeah, dude, it's been a minute.
01:32:49.000 I love you, man.
01:32:51.000 I think the last time we hung out was in Ferguson.
01:32:52.000 Wow.
01:32:53.000 And it was crazy times, but we hung out at the bar.
01:32:55.000 It was fun.
01:32:56.000 The bar, not Ferguson.
01:32:57.000 Yeah, that's the thing.
01:32:58.000 That's what I'm trying to clarify.
01:32:59.000 That's the thing about the business, man.
01:33:00.000 It's hard if you do it right.
01:33:02.000 It's horrifying.
01:33:06.000 We're gonna read some superchats.
01:33:07.000 Lydia will help fix your headphones.
01:33:10.000 Alright everybody, if you haven't already, smash that like button.
01:33:13.000 Help the show out, leave a comment.
01:33:14.000 We really appreciate it.
01:33:14.000 Go to TimCast.com because we're gonna have an even more entertaining, members-only exclusive with Charlie the Duff coming up later tonight.
01:33:21.000 I can swear.
01:33:22.000 Yeah, and the members-only stuff you can...
01:33:24.000 I did well, didn't I?
01:33:25.000 You tried so hard.
01:33:27.000 Yeah, we don't swear on the live show because we're family friendly.
01:33:29.000 So go to TimCast.com, become a member.
01:33:31.000 We also got a bunch of big updates.
01:33:32.000 We're working really hard on getting this done.
01:33:34.000 It's not the easiest thing in the world.
01:33:35.000 We are hiring tons of people.
01:33:36.000 But let's read some superchats.
01:33:38.000 We got the first superchat from a name that's being blocked by YouTube.
01:33:41.000 He says, what are your thoughts on ranked choice voting?
01:33:45.000 I'm a fan.
01:33:46.000 I like ranked choice voting.
01:33:47.000 Me too.
01:33:49.000 I like it a lot.
01:33:50.000 That means so you have 10 candidates, you give them each a ranking on one to 10.
01:33:54.000 And then if your number one choice isn't one of the contenders, it defaults to your number two, right?
01:33:59.000 And then it takes like the top two final contenders, and it will calculate which one of those goes to those two.
01:34:06.000 Yeah, so it's not a perfect system by any means.
01:34:07.000 It still can devolve into a two-party system, but the idea is... So if you had, you know... We had Joe Jorgensen, Trump, and we had Biden.
01:34:16.000 You could be like, okay, Trump's number one, Joe Jorgensen's number two, Biden's number three.
01:34:20.000 If Trump doesn't pull enough votes, your votes flips to the next choice.
01:34:24.000 That way, the idea is the person who wins is more representative of what the people want, as opposed to first-past-the-post voting, where everybody gets one vote, and then that person wins, which creates a two-party system.
01:34:36.000 So, I like the idea.
01:34:38.000 My turn?
01:34:39.000 Yeah.
01:34:39.000 Too confusing in a country of 330 million people that don't even trust a mail-in ballot.
01:34:44.000 No, but it's gonna be confusing.
01:34:46.000 It's gonna be like, please select your choice for president.
01:34:48.000 It's lightning round.
01:34:49.000 I'm just saying.
01:34:50.000 But check it out.
01:34:51.000 Imagine this.
01:34:52.000 Please select your choice for president.
01:34:53.000 You go, Jack.
01:34:54.000 I know what it is.
01:34:55.000 Then a box over here says, who else would you like to be president if this wasn't your second choice?
01:35:00.000 And you could pick somebody.
01:35:02.000 Not in the DNA.
01:35:03.000 Next super question.
01:35:04.000 But first, super question.
01:35:07.000 All right then.
01:35:08.000 KB Toys says, the majority voted to abolish the police.
01:35:11.000 Does that mean we disregard the minority then?
01:35:13.000 You criticize those who wouldn't let their car be taken, but advocate abandoning cities.
01:35:18.000 You live another day and are out of the fight.
01:35:21.000 I think that if you're... There's a big difference between someone trying to steal your car outright where it's illegal and no one agrees with stealing cars.
01:35:28.000 I think if you're in a city and they pass a bill that says carjacking is now legal and you're like, I'll stay here!
01:35:34.000 Then what do you want me to say when you get carjacked?
01:35:36.000 So, look, if it's illegal to carjack somebody and someone carjacks you, you- my personal opinion is, you know, to- to- to certain degrees, of course, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna fight.
01:35:48.000 But if, uh, if your city legalizes or decriminalizes carjackings, you might wanna leave.
01:35:54.000 Yeah, but not everyone can.
01:35:57.000 You know, it's hard for people to relocate sometimes.
01:36:00.000 Sure, we did have a Super Chat yesterday where someone pushed back on that, saying it's not as hard as people think.
01:36:06.000 And look, man, the fact of the matter is hard or easy isn't what's important.
01:36:12.000 What's important is, if you stay in a city like Minneapolis, what you are saying is, it is easier and safer for me to stay here than it would be to leave.
01:36:20.000 Because I'll tell you this, you got a family, it's tough, you seriously could just start walking.
01:36:25.000 Nothing's stopping you and your family from just walking down the street and walking.
01:36:28.000 Now, I get it.
01:36:28.000 That's ridiculously unsafe, so it might be safer to stay in your home.
01:36:32.000 But finding a new place to live, renting an apartment might be hard, but you might be safer in the long run.
01:36:37.000 It's short-term versus long-term thinking.
01:36:39.000 Are we on the Family Friendly Show or the other show?
01:36:41.000 Family Friendly.
01:36:42.000 We're on the Family Friendly Show.
01:36:44.000 Yeah, so it's now legal to come up to me at the gas station, stick a gun to my face, and take my car?
01:36:52.000 Stupid!
01:36:54.000 Is it?
01:36:55.000 Well, you know- That's carjacking as far as I know what it is.
01:36:58.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:36:58.000 I'm not saying it is legal.
01:36:59.000 I'm saying you live in Minneapolis where they've tried to abolish their police.
01:37:03.000 Yeah.
01:37:03.000 It backfired.
01:37:04.000 A bunch of cops left and now people are panicking.
01:37:07.000 Staying there is kind of like a bad idea.
01:37:11.000 That's just my opinion, you can stay if you want.
01:37:13.000 Who said no good 80s music?
01:37:15.000 Me.
01:37:15.000 Guns N' Roses.
01:37:15.000 I didn't say there was none.
01:37:17.000 No, someone else.
01:37:17.000 What was it, you?
01:37:18.000 I was a bit teed off by the no good 80s music.
01:37:21.000 ACDC Motley Crue.
01:37:23.000 Who said no good 80s music?
01:37:25.000 Guns and Roses.
01:37:26.000 I didn't say there was none.
01:37:27.000 No, someone else.
01:37:27.000 What was it, you?
01:37:28.000 I mean, I was dogging on 80s, just the 80s in general.
01:37:30.000 The 80s was one of the best music periods ever.
01:37:33.000 It was okay.
01:37:34.000 Don't you want me, baby?
01:37:36.000 Except for the 60s and the 70s and the 90s.
01:37:40.000 The 70s, eh.
01:37:41.000 The 70s was okay.
01:37:43.000 There's good 70s music.
01:37:44.000 Zeppelin was hot.
01:37:45.000 Look at this.
01:37:46.000 ACDC monthly group.
01:37:46.000 The 60s was awesome.
01:37:47.000 Tears for Fears.
01:37:49.000 Tears for Fears was pretty good.
01:37:50.000 The Cure.
01:37:50.000 Depeche Mode.
01:37:51.000 No, no.
01:37:52.000 Depress Mode.
01:37:53.000 I mean, come on.
01:37:55.000 The 90s was when rock and roll was birthed.
01:37:57.000 You could say it was birthed before that, but it matured in the 90s.
01:38:01.000 The 90s had Smashing Pumpkins, I'll give you that.
01:38:03.000 It had a lot of that grunge rock, the Seattle sound.
01:38:07.000 The 80s had some good music, no doubt.
01:38:10.000 Guns N' Roses is one of the best bands of all time, I think.
01:38:15.000 It's the 2000s that was bad, right?
01:38:16.000 Yeah, when Auto-Tune took hold.
01:38:18.000 The 2000s were bad.
01:38:19.000 What do we have in 2000?
01:38:20.000 Somebody told us their stuff and I was like, oh yeah, that existed.
01:38:24.000 There's some good stuff.
01:38:25.000 But when autotune came out, anyone could just like sing crappy and then tweak it.
01:38:31.000 And like the whole point I think of recording yourself is to make it sound like who you are for real.
01:38:36.000 And there's a challenge to sound good.
01:38:38.000 Like Justin Bieber.
01:38:40.000 In 50 years, people are going to be putting on the classics.
01:38:44.000 Justin Bieber.
01:38:46.000 Oh, God.
01:38:46.000 All right.
01:38:47.000 We got Doc.
01:38:48.000 Doc Hollandaise says, thanks for introducing me to Charlie.
01:38:51.000 He's a blast.
01:38:52.000 There you go.
01:38:53.000 DW says, never heard of this guest, but why does he sound like he does a voiceover for mobster movies?
01:39:01.000 None of your business.
01:39:05.000 I had to think about that, but I was going to come up with a good one, but it's a family.
01:39:09.000 Stay tuned for the next one.
01:39:10.000 Subscribe if you're not, and I'll tell you why.
01:39:13.000 All right.
01:39:14.000 Sakantia says, once again, I'm asking for your support to bring Donut Operator or Angry Cops in the podcast.
01:39:19.000 Much love to you all.
01:39:20.000 Even Ian, who catches my friend and I off guard with Federal Reserve rants, love a trans girl Trump voter.
01:39:26.000 All right.
01:39:27.000 Donut Operator would be fantastic.
01:39:28.000 Yeah, I reached out to him recently.
01:39:30.000 Okay, cool.
01:39:31.000 Wait, that's something.
01:39:32.000 Hey, trans girl Trump voter.
01:39:35.000 Respect.
01:39:36.000 Respect.
01:39:37.000 Yeah, man.
01:39:39.000 Gerald Herbert says stink bugs are also known as kissing bugs as they eat dead flesh and the lips are their favorite to feed on at night and they carry horrible bacteria that can cause fatal infections.
01:39:51.000 How nice.
01:39:52.000 Thank you.
01:39:52.000 And they don't degrade.
01:39:54.000 There are different kinds of stink bugs.
01:39:55.000 No, they live in your belly and come out.
01:39:58.000 So we've been just, we've thrown them in jars, we go outside, we throw in a chicken thing and the chickens just go nuts.
01:40:02.000 They love stink bugs.
01:40:03.000 I can see why, they were not, I would eat them.
01:40:06.000 They're big and juicy.
01:40:07.000 Good and crunchy.
01:40:09.000 Jack... Jack Mack says... Oh, I'm sorry.
01:40:12.000 Jack Mack Dogeboy.
01:40:13.000 Oh!
01:40:14.000 My buddy in Ukraine says everyone is super on edge.
01:40:16.000 He lives less than 50 miles from the Russian border.
01:40:19.000 Worried about my homie and the world.
01:40:21.000 You're not alone, man.
01:40:22.000 This is it.
01:40:23.000 Look at this.
01:40:24.000 Black Lion Grunt says Russia warns US and NATO to not cross their red line.
01:40:28.000 I wish we had a strong leader like a certain orange man.
01:40:32.000 But you know the history of the Ukraine and Poland and Central Europe, they get washed over all the time.
01:40:38.000 That's right.
01:40:39.000 But now we got really big bombs.
01:40:44.000 Not a good idea.
01:40:45.000 Very true.
01:40:46.000 All right, Steve Smith says, damn, I vote for the first time in 2016 and the world seems to go to crap.
01:40:51.000 Well, it's a good thing it's cold in Minnesota tonight, so less riots maybe.
01:40:54.000 Also, I feel a lot like the cops have debt, so they won't quit, thus they stick around in this terrible system.
01:41:01.000 Yeah, well, there you go.
01:41:02.000 Hey, keep in mind, man, maybe it seems like it's going to crap, but it's not.
01:41:05.000 It just seems like that because of the media manipulation.
01:41:09.000 But I like what dude said, though, you know, like, it's your job.
01:41:13.000 It's a job.
01:41:14.000 It should pay more.
01:41:15.000 It should pay more.
01:41:15.000 That's the end of the story, but you're right.
01:41:18.000 I don't think people realize that having people who don't feel invested in their work because they get paid garbage, it's like $38,000.
01:41:26.000 Yeah.
01:41:27.000 And can I do this for real?
01:41:28.000 That job is insane.
01:41:30.000 A lot of my friends are cops.
01:41:34.000 Every single person out there knows that the majority of cops do a hard job and they do it well.
01:41:43.000 We know that.
01:41:45.000 We should say that and ask.
01:41:49.000 Nobody even knows what forced continuum means.
01:41:52.000 You're asking for a change that you won't even understand what it is to be a police.
01:41:59.000 So I just want to shout out to the very good police tonight.
01:42:02.000 All right.
01:42:03.000 Connor O'Brien says, the only piece of journalism I'll show my grandkids is the clip of Al Roker fessing up to crapping his pants in the White House.
01:42:09.000 Is that real?
01:42:11.000 I don't know if that's real.
01:42:13.000 That sounds real.
01:42:16.000 All right, let's see, where were we at?
01:42:18.000 Tennessee.
01:42:20.000 Pharaoh Fox says, glad to see Charlie is still doing great things.
01:42:23.000 Loved your book, ish show.
01:42:25.000 Keep flashing that press badge and not wearing the brown shoes.
01:42:29.000 And spin the UFO, which we actually, we don't have, we have the spinny thing, but the UFO still exists.
01:42:35.000 I wanna get a spinning moon.
01:42:37.000 We had, what happened to the earth?
01:42:38.000 Remember we had the earth?
01:42:39.000 Yeah, the earth is flat.
01:42:41.000 No, it isn't.
01:42:41.000 Okay.
01:42:42.000 Depends on how you look at it.
01:42:43.000 How's that a thing?
01:42:46.000 Some people just kind of lost it.
01:42:47.000 They used to think it was.
01:42:49.000 There was like ancient, you know, ancient science.
01:42:51.000 Didn't they have like firmament and there was a belief that it was on the back of a turtle or something?
01:42:55.000 I mean, I don't know about all that.
01:42:57.000 I do know that Aristophanes calculated the circumference of the earth by measuring shadows and that was in like 2 BC.
01:43:04.000 That dude's name is awesome, by the way.
01:43:05.000 Aristophanes.
01:43:06.000 Nice pronunciation.
01:43:07.000 One in Athens and one in Cairo, in fact.
01:43:12.000 Yeah, that's right.
01:43:14.000 So smart, dude.
01:43:15.000 That's amazing.
01:43:17.000 Look at the eclipse.
01:43:19.000 It's circular.
01:43:21.000 It looks like a flat circle from the two dimensions.
01:43:23.000 So if the Earth is flat, is it up on its side like a quarter, or is it flat?
01:43:27.000 See what I'm saying?
01:43:28.000 Maybe it's up on its side and doing this at the speed of light, so it looks like a sphere.
01:43:34.000 Tim wants to actually talk about facts.
01:43:36.000 Yeah, the idea that the earth was flat was, uh, like Christopher Columbus.
01:43:39.000 That's not true.
01:43:40.000 Yep.
01:43:40.000 Oh, the, the issue was Columbus thought the earth was a smaller circumference and that the academics were wrong.
01:43:46.000 They all, they all knew it was round.
01:43:48.000 You know why?
01:43:50.000 Because boats go over the horizon and go down.
01:43:52.000 Like people weren't dumb.
01:43:53.000 They were like, Oh, look at that.
01:43:54.000 It's a, it's a, it was always, so let me get the visual if man.
01:43:58.000 Yeah.
01:44:00.000 Sailors know this.
01:44:01.000 When a ship with the masts and the sails, when they come over the horizon, the first thing you see is the crow's nest.
01:44:08.000 Then you see the mainsail.
01:44:10.000 Then you see the bow.
01:44:12.000 So if the earth was flat, you'd see them all at the same time.
01:44:15.000 They'd just be small.
01:44:17.000 But you see them rising up over the horizon.
01:44:19.000 That's how you know it's curved.
01:44:22.000 And so they've done that for a long time.
01:44:23.000 And that's why he was like, Hey, I'm going to calculate the circumference.
01:44:26.000 So Columbus was all like, you're wrong about how big the planet is.
01:44:30.000 We can make it sailing West to India.
01:44:34.000 He just was wrong.
01:44:37.000 And he ended up crashing into the Bahamas or something.
01:44:39.000 And then he called everyone Indians.
01:44:40.000 That's right.
01:44:40.000 Cause he thought he was in India.
01:44:41.000 All right.
01:44:42.000 Anyway.
01:44:44.000 Kay Lorraine says, I love this man.
01:44:46.000 I want to see him on a show.
01:44:47.000 Well, you got a show.
01:44:48.000 It's the No BS News Hour.
01:44:49.000 Yeah, but look at that.
01:44:51.000 I've been eating well, and you look great.
01:44:54.000 I cut my own hair.
01:44:57.000 I trimmed my mustaches for this show.
01:44:59.000 Thank you.
01:44:59.000 I feel a little old.
01:45:02.000 I feel it coming on.
01:45:04.000 And thank you.
01:45:04.000 You make me feel sexy.
01:45:06.000 And the boy wants to feel sexy.
01:45:08.000 Razgriz missed a word, but I'm gonna try and put in what I think they were saying.
01:45:12.000 Charlie's outburst was the best I have ever seen.
01:45:14.000 I am currently crying from the hot sauce that just came out of my nose.
01:45:17.000 Get that man another beer on me.
01:45:19.000 I'm telling you, the Cuomo thing is gonna, we're gonna clip that and we're gonna make sure we promote that one.
01:45:25.000 They're bozos.
01:45:25.000 This is my own time, right?
01:45:27.000 They're like daddy's boy.
01:45:28.000 I mean, their dad, Mario Cuomo, is basically the name recognition got them their jobs.
01:45:32.000 I don't think they're really all that great.
01:45:36.000 This is a good idea from Eric A. He says, Ian, I have this image of you coming in like the Kool-Aid man with End the Fed and Free the Code.
01:45:43.000 It wouldn't be the same show without you.
01:45:45.000 Maybe we have to make a shirt of Ian breaking through a brick wall with a picture of red fruit drink that says End the Fed on it.
01:45:52.000 A destructible wall.
01:45:53.000 After the show.
01:45:54.000 What we'll talk about this. Yeah, we should audit it at least we could be good
01:45:58.000 You can also audit the Pentagon we could repeal the Federal Reserve Act of
01:46:02.000 1913 you need the Federal Reserve Act. You just need a bank.
01:46:06.000 It doesn't have to be the Federal Reserve Everybody's everybody's having a good time
01:46:12.000 We got, we got some more, we got some more praise for you, for you, Charlie.
01:46:15.000 Clayton.
01:46:16.000 Praise.
01:46:16.000 I like praise.
01:46:17.000 Tell me how great I am.
01:46:18.000 Oh yeah.
01:46:19.000 Clayton says, just got to say what an amazing guest.
01:46:21.000 I mean, Charlie is super entertaining in every aspect.
01:46:24.000 Bo Jess says, thank you so much for having Charlie on.
01:46:27.000 He's doing great work for my state and needs as much support as possible.
01:46:30.000 Charlie, please never let up on Gretch and the corruption in Michigan.
01:46:34.000 Fix the S.
01:46:36.000 I gave you a shirt.
01:46:37.000 You gave me a shirt.
01:46:38.000 We don't swear.
01:46:40.000 Fix the ish.
01:46:40.000 Or fix it.
01:46:41.000 Government just fix it and we'll do our own stuff.
01:46:45.000 We don't need a nanny.
01:46:50.000 Man, we're screwed.
01:46:53.000 Now if you guys know what that means, you have my respect.
01:46:55.000 I dig it though.
01:46:56.000 Dharmak Anjalad on the ocean.
01:46:58.000 Khyazi's children, their faces wet.
01:47:00.000 Shaka, when the walls fell.
01:47:02.000 Uzami with fist closed.
01:47:04.000 Temba, when the walls fell.
01:47:05.000 The beast of Tanagra.
01:47:07.000 Now if you guys know what that means, you have my respect.
01:47:09.000 A good cryptic.
01:47:10.000 Dig it though.
01:47:13.000 But they mentioned Shaka.
01:47:14.000 I was actually listening to that.
01:47:15.000 So do you guys wanna know what all that meant?
01:47:17.000 Yes.
01:47:17.000 The secrets?
01:47:19.000 What do you think it might be relevant to this show?
01:47:23.000 Oh, he said Shaka.
01:47:25.000 Relevant to this show.
01:47:27.000 Wakanda forever.
01:47:28.000 Something we do here.
01:47:29.000 I don't know.
01:47:29.000 Something we reference quite often.
01:47:31.000 The Federal Reserve.
01:47:32.000 No.
01:47:33.000 Cryptocurrency.
01:47:34.000 Graphene.
01:47:36.000 No.
01:47:37.000 DMT.
01:47:38.000 That's all I got.
01:47:39.000 You give up?
01:47:39.000 Yeah.
01:47:40.000 You can't get it?
01:47:40.000 It's a Star Trek reference.
01:47:45.000 No, it's an alien race that speaks in parables and stories.
01:47:51.000 So when communicating and they would say something like Dharmak and Jalad on the ocean, it's a story and you're communicating through... Oh, I saw that.
01:48:02.000 So the idea is like, When you say, like, Tim and Ian on Timcast, you're basically saying, like, having a discussion and arguments.
01:48:10.000 Oh, yeah.
01:48:11.000 So it's like that reference is a reference to the common occurrence.
01:48:13.000 Yeah.
01:48:14.000 Okay.
01:48:15.000 Yeah.
01:48:16.000 Sorry.
01:48:16.000 If you were to say something like... That's called nerd out over there.
01:48:19.000 Mother raising her child on the busy street.
01:48:23.000 It's like... Well, it's a specific story.
01:48:24.000 So it's like Joe Biden climbing airplane stairs.
01:48:28.000 So you'd be referencing someone failing at something.
01:48:31.000 Indeed.
01:48:31.000 Is this Pig Latin or something?
01:48:33.000 No, no, no.
01:48:33.000 It's speaking.
01:48:34.000 It's conveying ideas through stories.
01:48:36.000 But I didn't understand a damn word that guy said.
01:48:40.000 So there's an episode of Star Trek where they're trying to communicate with these aliens who are frustrated because they keep speaking in stories.
01:48:48.000 Still confusing.
01:48:48.000 Understand the word specifically like ocean, but we don't know what the stories are
01:48:52.000 so we have no idea what they're saying and so they're trying to translate and
01:48:55.000 Then Picard like teams up with the guy and they're trying to teach him the language and stuff like that
01:49:00.000 Try cockney 43
01:49:05.000 Rub-a-dub!
01:49:06.000 Aiden says, hey Tim, love the amount of work that you've put into the show, and as well as of the vids you make throughout the week.
01:49:13.000 At the college I go to, they are making us go through diversity and inclusion training because of that girl from Ohio.
01:49:18.000 Which girl?
01:49:20.000 The one with the knife.
01:49:22.000 Was it the one?
01:49:22.000 Is that what they're talking about?
01:49:23.000 I don't know.
01:49:24.000 That many girls from Ohio?
01:49:24.000 Probably, yeah.
01:49:25.000 There's one, yeah, Columbus, yeah.
01:49:28.000 I don't make light of it, though.
01:49:29.000 It's very serious.
01:49:30.000 That sucks.
01:49:31.000 Yeah, it's disturbing.
01:49:32.000 Painful.
01:49:33.000 Painful.
01:49:34.000 Alright, there was a bunch of comments where they really love you, but we gotta read the ones where they don't.
01:49:37.000 Oh, yeah.
01:49:38.000 You ready?
01:49:38.000 Yeah.
01:49:38.000 Ready?
01:49:40.000 Okay.
01:49:40.000 Music DC guy says, eh, this guy is a constitution hater and a liberal apologist.
01:49:44.000 I'll tune back in tomorrow.
01:49:46.000 Okay, bro.
01:49:48.000 Okay.
01:49:48.000 Recite the preamble or give me the three articles setting up the confederation.
01:49:55.000 No, no, no, no.
01:49:55.000 Article one, article two, article three.
01:49:57.000 Give me, give me the Bill of Rights.
01:49:59.000 Can anybody give me the Bill of Rights?
01:50:01.000 Thou shall not.
01:50:02.000 No, those, that's the Ten Commandments!
01:50:05.000 I'm big into Moses.
01:50:05.000 No, huh?
01:50:06.000 Anybody?
01:50:08.000 I'm not the guy.
01:50:09.000 That's right, dude.
01:50:09.000 So don't you even do that without, type them in now and we'll see if you don't, don't Google it.
01:50:16.000 You know, you don't know it.
01:50:17.000 Go ahead.
01:50:19.000 Zach says Lola Bunny turning men into furries since 1996.
01:50:24.000 That's Bugs' girlfriend, right?
01:50:26.000 So one of the biggest scandals now apparently is that Lola Bunny in 1996 was drawn with big boobs and now they've gotten rid of the boobs.
01:50:35.000 So now Lola Bunny has no boobs.
01:50:37.000 By the way, did you guys see- I don't think anyone's actually mad about that to be honest.
01:50:41.000 But people are joking about it.
01:50:43.000 Have you guys seen the new Looney Tunes?
01:50:45.000 No.
01:50:45.000 Freakishly disturbing.
01:50:47.000 They remade it like Seinfeld, where Bugs is like Jerry, but it's just poorly, poorly done.
01:50:51.000 You gotta watch it, dude.
01:50:52.000 It's so weird.
01:50:53.000 From when?
01:50:53.000 When?
01:50:53.000 Recently?
01:50:54.000 It's like five years old or three years old or something.
01:50:56.000 Really?
01:50:56.000 It's so weird.
01:50:57.000 Is it like crude?
01:50:59.000 No, it's just like boring pseudo-humor.
01:51:02.000 It's so weird, dude.
01:51:04.000 Can I get some more hate mail?
01:51:06.000 Some more hate?
01:51:06.000 Yeah, we've got some more hate, I'm sure.
01:51:09.000 What did I do?
01:51:10.000 Geez.
01:51:11.000 You invited me for a conversation.
01:51:12.000 Martin Edgar says, Grandma got run over by a reindeer by Elmo Sropshire and Patsy Trigg, 1979.
01:51:22.000 Husband and wife duo.
01:51:23.000 Excellent song.
01:51:24.000 Well done, bro.
01:51:26.000 Educated audience here.
01:51:27.000 That's right.
01:51:29.000 SirNeoffStrife says, Hey, Tim, you should get Gary Buchler, the NerdRodic.
01:51:35.000 He talks about how they just use characters we know to push woke because he used to own a comic shop and rise from being a drug addict that went to jail to a YouTuber.
01:51:43.000 He said he would love to be on.
01:51:45.000 Love the show.
01:51:45.000 Very cool.
01:51:46.000 We will look into NerdRodic.
01:51:48.000 I will reach out.
01:51:49.000 Hey, you're doing good, man.
01:51:51.000 AlienKing says, You jumped out on your own stuff.
01:51:55.000 Yeah.
01:51:56.000 I was working for a Disney company, man.
01:51:59.000 I could have just jumped through all the hoops they asked me to and got paid all the fat cash to be one of the corporate shills.
01:52:04.000 I'm the only guy that gets to come on here and say, I'm proud of you.
01:52:08.000 Appreciate it.
01:52:09.000 Because you were younger, we're in the spot together, we know each other, we both work for Vice.
01:52:15.000 I'm proud of you.
01:52:16.000 Thanks, man.
01:52:17.000 Thanks, Charlie.
01:52:17.000 Smart guy.
01:52:18.000 Thanks for coming on the show.
01:52:19.000 Let me read to you what they're saying about you.
01:52:21.000 Alien King says, what a great freaking guest.
01:52:23.000 I love Charlie's honesty, candor, and energy.
01:52:25.000 Just imagine the life experiences this guy has had.
01:52:28.000 Take note and step up, Trevor.
01:52:30.000 Right, Trevor?
01:52:31.000 We're not ragging on Trevor anymore.
01:52:32.000 Trevor's all right.
01:52:32.000 Trevor Noah?
01:52:33.000 No, no, no.
01:52:34.000 Just people.
01:52:34.000 Just Trevor.
01:52:35.000 Someone called out their friend Trevor.
01:52:36.000 So we started joking that Trevor sucks.
01:52:38.000 And then somebody named Trevor was like, come on, guys.
01:52:40.000 What's with Trevor Noah?
01:52:41.000 What's with Trevor Noah?
01:52:42.000 Not a fan.
01:52:42.000 I don't know.
01:52:42.000 I like Trevor and us.
01:52:43.000 How did he get that job?
01:52:44.000 Dude, you came over in 2014.
01:52:48.000 What do you know?
01:52:49.000 That's nice.
01:52:50.000 It's good.
01:52:51.000 With the tears.
01:52:52.000 You don't know what tears are.
01:52:54.000 Not here.
01:52:55.000 He's doing what he thinks Jon Stewart would do.
01:52:58.000 And he's just not Jon Stewart.
01:53:01.000 It's so, so cringe.
01:53:03.000 Triple Kill says, can you please trim these YouTube videos so I don't have to listen to a minute and a half of dead air before each episode.
01:53:09.000 Keep up the good work.
01:53:10.000 I don't think we actually can.
01:53:11.000 I don't think... Podcast.
01:53:13.000 We've tried trimming... So this is a live show.
01:53:15.000 Once it goes up, I don't think you can actually... Oh, actually, you might be able to trim.
01:53:19.000 Oh, can we?
01:53:19.000 You can't split afterwards.
01:53:21.000 Yeah, you can't split.
01:53:23.000 Right.
01:53:24.000 No, it's live, it's posted, then it's gonna archive it, then you can go back and you can cut.
01:53:28.000 We'll see if we can do that.
01:53:29.000 But he's live!
01:53:30.000 The important thing is the guy's live!
01:53:32.000 What's the matter with you?
01:53:34.000 But most people do watch after the fact.
01:53:35.000 I know, but he's doing live.
01:53:37.000 Like, I can't take it anymore.
01:53:39.000 I'll see what I can do.
01:53:39.000 I'll see what I can do.
01:53:41.000 Frank Skula says, Charlie never heard of you before, but I gotta say, you are one heck of a character.
01:53:46.000 I can't say I agree with everything you said today, but man, I would share a beer with you, brother.
01:53:50.000 We're not supposed to agree with everything, but I'd definitely have a beer.
01:53:56.000 I think all that people really want is authenticity.
01:53:59.000 You can be wrong about a ton of things, and people would love to hang out with you as long as you're willing to actually talk about stuff.
01:54:04.000 Isn't that the thing?
01:54:05.000 We don't know each other that well.
01:54:07.000 We don't agree with everything.
01:54:09.000 But it's an interesting night, and you return to your corner of the earth, and I return to mine.
01:54:15.000 And that's what a tribe is.
01:54:17.000 We're going to have to have you do a bunch of little mini-docs for us, though, if you're interested.
01:54:22.000 Definitely.
01:54:22.000 Look, man, here's the thing.
01:54:24.000 It's a new media concern.
01:54:27.000 I don't need you.
01:54:28.000 You definitely don't need me.
01:54:30.000 But why don't we link up?
01:54:31.000 Sounds good.
01:54:32.000 Okay, we'll figure it out.
01:54:33.000 There we go.
01:54:34.000 Oh, we're going to kill.
01:54:35.000 Oh, we're going to kill.
01:54:37.000 Orwell was a prophet 1984 says I love how the same people that want to abolish the police also want to take my guns That's adorable.
01:54:45.000 You think a social worker is going to actively listen me out of my stockpile That's what I'm saying.
01:54:50.000 Look you want to abolish the police.
01:54:52.000 There won't be anybody to enforce gun laws So I'm not worried about it.
01:54:55.000 I got a nice story about that real quick because we're doing a Rapid fire.
01:54:59.000 In Detroit one time they sent the social worker.
01:55:03.000 And the social worker... For what?
01:55:05.000 Got sent for what?
01:55:06.000 Disturbed man.
01:55:07.000 Disturbed man.
01:55:08.000 Social worker went in.
01:55:09.000 Dude was naked.
01:55:11.000 Had his shotgun.
01:55:12.000 Said sit down.
01:55:13.000 Social worker sat down.
01:55:16.000 In a Barca lounger of urine.
01:55:20.000 And had to sit there for an hour till naked man.
01:55:23.000 They were alright.
01:55:24.000 Yeah, it turned out alright, but that's... You don't just send social workers.
01:55:29.000 We all know what's going on.
01:55:32.000 Let's be adults about it.
01:55:34.000 Scott H says, Hey Charlie, I live in Detroit and have followed you since you exposed Bob Ficano for serving cat food to Meals on Wheels.
01:55:41.000 Similar to the orange drink, keep fighting the good fight exposing Whitmer.
01:55:45.000 Serving cat food to old people?
01:55:47.000 Long story.
01:55:49.000 But again, no, I'm not hunting Whitmer.
01:55:53.000 Let's get this straight.
01:55:56.000 I want answers, and when the answers aren't truthful, I keep going.
01:56:00.000 I'm not hunting.
01:56:02.000 I'm doing what a reporter is supposed to do.
01:56:06.000 The government held to account.
01:56:07.000 That's it.
01:56:08.000 Right on.
01:56:09.000 Alex Moore says, good job team.
01:56:11.000 Y'all make me laugh, cry, yell at the TV, throw the occasional can, agree and agree to disagree.
01:56:16.000 I will give a super chat for one of you to finish Cyberpunk, at least one ending, and think, prophetic future, when you review for us.
01:56:25.000 High five!
01:56:25.000 I'll bite the bullet.
01:56:26.000 I haven't even bought it yet, but I'll go there.
01:56:29.000 I guess they fixed a lot of it.
01:56:30.000 Okay, that's what I was waiting for.
01:56:31.000 I think I still have the original on my PlayStation.
01:56:34.000 Like, when it first came out, so it's like all the glitchy, broken, never-been-updated.
01:56:37.000 I'll race you.
01:56:38.000 Probably auto-updates whenever I play Skater XL or whatever.
01:56:44.000 Alright.
01:56:46.000 Slayer says, Hey Charlie, I'm 26, living in Detroit, and I can't stand Gretchen.
01:56:50.000 Are there any job opportunities to work with you?
01:56:52.000 I'd love to join you.
01:56:54.000 Um... Should I give my email?
01:56:57.000 Yeah, if you want.
01:56:58.000 If you feel comfortable.
01:56:59.000 You'll get a lot.
01:56:59.000 You'll get a thousand emails.
01:57:00.000 Ladof10 at gmail.com.
01:57:04.000 But come if you're for real.
01:57:05.000 You got some video skill, you know what I mean?
01:57:09.000 I appreciate it, but I'm not running a community college.
01:57:12.000 If you got some skills, get a hold of me.
01:57:13.000 If not, go to the community college, get the skills, then get a hold of me.
01:57:19.000 All right, Julie Simone says, while I agree with personal accountability and not staying in a place that no longer aligns with your values, unfortunately, there aren't as many decent places for people to flee.
01:57:30.000 So then what?
01:57:31.000 West Virginia?
01:57:33.000 Wyoming?
01:57:33.000 Never flee.
01:57:34.000 What?
01:57:35.000 Never flee.
01:57:36.000 First of all, don't flee.
01:57:37.000 If you flee, you're the problem.
01:57:39.000 You're the weak.
01:57:40.000 You make a choice to move.
01:57:43.000 There's a difference.
01:57:45.000 Or hold it out and get real on planet Earth.
01:57:48.000 There's no Disneyland.
01:57:49.000 You said it.
01:57:51.000 It's never been that great.
01:57:52.000 No, it's not.
01:57:53.000 So come on now.
01:57:55.000 Don't flee.
01:57:57.000 I don't trust you if you flee.
01:57:58.000 Nobody wants flight.
01:58:00.000 You never have my back if you flee.
01:58:02.000 That means you don't have your own back.
01:58:04.000 There are such things as organized retreat.
01:58:07.000 That's a lot different than getting routed.
01:58:09.000 Heather Graham says, Tim.
01:58:11.000 The Supreme Court previously upheld that police agencies have no duty to provide protection to citizens in general.
01:58:17.000 The other officers in George Floyd death had no duty to provide protection to George Floyd at the very least, correct?
01:58:23.000 It's true.
01:58:24.000 I actually was looking at one of Luke Rutkowski's old videos.
01:58:27.000 There was a guy on a subway in New York, had a knife I guess, and he was attacking people.
01:58:31.000 And the cops refused to do anything.
01:58:33.000 Some regular guy tried subduing this guy with a knife and the cops just stood there and watched because they're like, we don't got to do anything.
01:58:39.000 We're not going to help you.
01:58:40.000 So Luke actually interviewed the guy.
01:58:41.000 He got stabbed a bunch of times.
01:58:42.000 It's crazy.
01:58:42.000 I remember that.
01:58:43.000 Yeah, that's nuts.
01:58:45.000 What's up with those other cops that were on the scene for the the Chauvin, I guess, murder, you would call it now.
01:58:50.000 I don't know.
01:58:51.000 Oh, there are.
01:58:52.000 No, I think that I think their stuff proceeds now.
01:58:57.000 And they were charged with like aiding and abetting.
01:58:59.000 Is that right?
01:59:00.000 I don't know.
01:59:00.000 I'm going to be honest with you.
01:59:03.000 I didn't follow all of this as closely as everybody.
01:59:09.000 I just wasn't included in the TV.
01:59:11.000 I don't know the specifics because I know what I saw.
01:59:15.000 Did you see the second video of George Floyd, like, before the Chauvin got there?
01:59:23.000 Resisting?
01:59:23.000 Yeah, if that's resisting, that's the weakest argument I've ever seen.
01:59:29.000 Like, kicking your way out of the car and knocking people down?
01:59:32.000 Oh, dude, I mean, come on.
01:59:34.000 This can't even be an argument here.
01:59:37.000 Yeah.
01:59:38.000 So maybe he's a little bit high.
01:59:40.000 So maybe he's a little bit claustrophobic.
01:59:41.000 Should they let him go?
01:59:42.000 No.
01:59:43.000 What should they do?
01:59:43.000 What you do is you take him out, you stand him in the car.
01:59:46.000 Ready?
01:59:46.000 Here's the real one.
01:59:47.000 You call the paddy wagon.
01:59:50.000 You call the van.
01:59:53.000 That's what you do.
01:59:54.000 Because they got vans for the canine unit.
01:59:58.000 Right?
01:59:58.000 If you want, that's all you do.
02:00:00.000 How hard is this?
02:00:02.000 Every district's got a van.
02:00:05.000 Go get a U-Haul.
02:00:07.000 I'm gonna kill him.
02:00:07.000 I guess the issue is... And I stand right because the jury said so.
02:00:13.000 That's... It's officially murder.
02:00:15.000 Officially murder.
02:00:16.000 It was a murder.
02:00:18.000 You're right.
02:00:18.000 If you believe in this system, this great democracy of ours, it's a murder.
02:00:22.000 We now say he's murdered.
02:00:25.000 No, I don't, because Snowden's being persecuted.
02:00:27.000 There he goes.
02:00:28.000 This is white Jesus over here.
02:00:29.000 Assange is being persecuted.
02:00:31.000 I don't believe the system at face value.
02:00:33.000 No, but in terms of the formal, official statement, yep, murder.
02:00:37.000 Yeah, according to the formal, official statement.
02:00:38.000 Do you think he's murdered tonight?
02:00:39.000 Do you think that...
02:00:41.000 George Flay was murdered?
02:00:42.000 No, I think he was high on opiates and fentanyl and would have killed someone.
02:00:46.000 And you?
02:00:47.000 I don't know.
02:00:48.000 You know why?
02:00:49.000 I watched the trial from start to finish.
02:00:52.000 I've seen the full body camera footage.
02:00:54.000 And I heard the girlfriend of George Floyd say that he was in the middle of a drug deal.
02:00:58.000 He was.
02:00:58.000 And that he ate a speedball.
02:00:59.000 I've been high and dope.
02:01:01.000 I don't need a cop choking me out.
02:01:03.000 Do you know that he had 90% narrowing of the arteries around his heart?
02:01:06.000 Again, choke me out and my 90's gonna turn to 100.
02:01:10.000 But that's not murder.
02:01:12.000 If you're high and about to die and then someone... I'm high and about to die and a cop...
02:01:18.000 Business on my neck!
02:01:19.000 They haven't proven what killed George Floyd.
02:01:22.000 I know, but... So how do you prove murder if you can't even prove the cause of death beyond a reasonable doubt?
02:01:27.000 Well, this is getting all nice.
02:01:29.000 This is a big conversation.
02:01:30.000 So, okay, I've worked with people who had drug addictions.
02:01:33.000 I've worked with people who were withdrawing from all kinds of drugs.
02:01:37.000 And they had serious issues.
02:01:39.000 Like, this is something that seriously complicates your life.
02:01:43.000 So when I hear that George Floyd was high on fentanyl, that's a serious, complicating factor that needs to be taken into consideration.
02:01:50.000 Do you know that he had more than a lethal dose of fentanyl in his system?
02:01:52.000 He did, yes.
02:01:53.000 Do you know that he also, combined with the norefentanyl, probably took the drugs well before any interaction happened?
02:01:58.000 Yes.
02:01:58.000 The judge even said it looked like George Floyd put fentanyl in his mouth.
02:02:02.000 Yes.
02:02:02.000 He also had a high amount of methamphetamine.
02:02:04.000 Exactly.
02:02:04.000 According to the state's own witnesses, Chauvin was entitled under the law to use a taser on George Floyd due to active resistance.
02:02:12.000 Derek Chauvin chose to use the lesser force option.
02:02:16.000 The knee wasn't on his neck for 9 minutes and 29 seconds.
02:02:19.000 The prosecution's own body camera footage that was shown proved that Chauvin actually moved his knee off of George Floyd's neck and onto his back several different times.
02:02:28.000 George Floyd actively resisted and bystanders at first were yelling at George Floyd to stop resisting arrest.
02:02:34.000 He did resist.
02:02:34.000 And Floyd said no.
02:02:35.000 He did.
02:02:36.000 That's all true.
02:02:36.000 They called for backup.
02:02:38.000 Derek Chauvin was called on a priority one, six foot one, 220 pounds resisting arrest.
02:02:42.000 That's true.
02:02:43.000 And Chauvin chose to use lesser force according to the prosecution's witnesses.
02:02:46.000 And then again, that's all true.
02:02:47.000 So how is it murder?
02:02:50.000 Intent to kill you you got the business on the man's neck knee put on his back.
02:02:53.000 You can't breathe You knew he couldn't breathe.
02:02:55.000 We all saw he couldn't breathe you pick the man up.
02:02:58.000 You make sure he breathes Well, you know that I go to the bathroom, you know You know according to the state's own witness the amount of that fentanyl's the most dangerous component of fentanyl Is that it who you talking to?
02:03:09.000 Yeah.
02:03:09.000 You know who I come from?
02:03:11.000 Do you know my people?
02:03:12.000 Do you know what I know about fentanyl?
02:03:13.000 Yeah.
02:03:13.000 And cocaine?
02:03:14.000 That's right.
02:03:15.000 And alcohol?
02:03:16.000 Yep.
02:03:17.000 My people?
02:03:17.000 I'm from the South Side of Chicago.
02:03:18.000 I completely understand.
02:03:20.000 I'm not going to buy that, man.
02:03:22.000 So, when, when, when, so... You make the last point, let me go to the bathroom.
02:03:25.000 You ask me if I think it's a murder, and I'll tell you this.
02:03:28.000 The witness for the prosecution said, the most dangerous thing about fentanyl is that it depresses your respiratory system and your ability to breathe and results in hypoxia.
02:03:38.000 Now you're gonna tell me that you don't have reasonable- Excuse me, brother.
02:03:45.000 A very dear loved one of mine died this past July.
02:03:49.000 Complications of fentanyl.
02:03:51.000 Just the fact that somebody gave it to him is murder.
02:03:54.000 Murder three.
02:03:55.000 And I can't get no justice.
02:03:56.000 Yep.
02:03:57.000 So please, let me go to bed.
02:03:59.000 All right.
02:03:59.000 Yes!
02:03:59.000 Let's do it.
02:04:00.000 Yeah.
02:04:00.000 Well, with that being said, actually, that was a great end, man.
02:04:02.000 We're going to come back for the members-only segment over at TimCast.com, so make sure you check that out.
02:04:07.000 Charlie's getting excited because he can swear now.

02:05:15.000 I don't know.
02:05:16.000 I decided to put up the vlog.
02:05:17.000 We're going to put up more.

02:05:30.000 It'll be awesome.
02:05:31.000 So, uh, well, I guess Charlie's hitting the head.
02:05:34.000 Uh, Ian, you want to shout your stuff out?
02:05:35.000 Yeah.
02:05:36.000 First, I see you got a tweet from you earlier.
02:05:37.000 It says abolish the police, hire social workers instead.
02:05:40.000 I am 100% serious.
02:05:42.000 Was that serious?
02:05:43.000 Did I say it was serious?
02:05:44.000 You did, but I don't trust anything you say on Twitter.
02:05:46.000 I said abolish the police and hire the social workers.
02:05:48.000 You know why?
02:05:48.000 No.
02:05:49.000 Because the city's voted for it.
02:05:50.000 Yeah?
02:05:50.000 Okay.
02:05:51.000 That was all I needed.
02:05:52.000 I'm at this point where it's like, dude, if people are like, this is what we would like, please, I'll be like, then let them do it.
02:05:58.000 I don't live there.
02:05:59.000 Most people don't live in New York.
02:06:00.000 It's like most people listen to the show.
02:06:02.000 Listen, man, if you are in, if you want your, like, You live in a city where you're fighting the good fight, but they've supported the riots.
02:06:11.000 I said it a million times.
02:06:12.000 You probably shouldn't be there anymore.
02:06:13.000 You know, you should probably go find somewhere else where you can be more comfortable, whatever.
02:06:19.000 If the people want social workers, let them have social workers.
02:06:24.000 All right.
02:06:25.000 It's like a Chinese finger trap problem.
02:06:27.000 We're trying to get our fingers out of this trap by pulling as hard as we can.
02:06:30.000 Maybe the solution is actually to push the trap inward.
02:06:32.000 Take a pair of scissors and just cut it in the middle.
02:06:34.000 But the thing is, man, the community in large is not calling for that.
02:06:39.000 It's made for TV.
02:06:40.000 Sorry man, they're not doing anything to stop it.
02:06:43.000 So if elections have consequences, they keep voting for leaders who push this stuff, and they don't care about the consequences?
02:06:51.000 It's a tough world because if the masses believe something, it's hard for them to get that word out.
02:06:54.000 You get one individual can make a YouTube channel.
02:06:56.000 So like one person kind of consolidates power in the individual.
02:06:59.000 Or NBC.
02:07:01.000 And so they have like a narrative.
02:07:02.000 Just telling you the word I get from Detroit, from the community, the people I know being on the block.
02:07:07.000 No, they support police.
02:07:09.000 They want good, professional, you know, non-a-kicking police.
02:07:15.000 They gotta come out in the streets and show their support.
02:07:17.000 They gotta put up the flags, they gotta say something, because right now, the violent mob- The vast majority doesn't take to the street unless they got a reason to.
02:07:24.000 And if the cops get abolished, they might, right?
02:07:26.000 I'm just gonna shout out- They want more police.
02:07:28.000 iancrossland.net, which is my website, and that you can follow me at iancrossland, but also LaDuff is back, so- Yeah, shout out your show, man!
02:07:35.000 And your social media, what do you got?

02:07:54.000 That's awesome.
02:07:55.000 Yeah, it's great.
02:07:56.000 I follow zero.
02:07:58.000 The only man I ever followed was my grandfather.
02:08:00.000 There you go.
02:08:01.000 The rest I'll have a talk with.
02:08:02.000 But I use the Twitters just to know what I'm doing, what's going on.
02:08:06.000 Just like the No BS News Hour.
02:08:08.000 Sweet.
02:08:08.000 Love it.
02:08:09.000 Thank you.
02:08:09.000 Thank you for that.
02:08:11.000 Now, when do we get to the part where we can drink whiskey?
02:08:15.000 In about five minutes.
02:08:16.000 Give us five minutes.
02:08:18.000 Let Lydia shout out and then we'll get to that.
02:08:19.000 Can I go get a cigarette?
02:08:20.000 I actually have my first beer ever on the show thanks to Charlie.
02:08:23.000 Why don't you go grab your smoke right now?
02:08:26.000 Oh, this was awesome.
02:08:28.000 Man, this was awesome.
02:08:29.000 I love it.
02:08:30.000 So much fun.
02:08:31.000 Fun guests.
02:08:32.000 There we go.
02:08:33.000 High fives all around.
02:08:35.000 Heck yeah.
02:08:35.000 We're going to be back with Charlie for the members only stuff.
02:08:37.000 He's going to grab a smoke.
02:08:39.000 Wait, he's going to give me a high five.
02:08:40.000 I missed and here we go.
02:08:42.000 Oh no, my gosh.
02:08:43.000 No, we didn't see that.
02:08:44.000 We're good to go.
02:08:45.000 Thanks, Charlie, for keeping fake news.
02:08:47.000 All right.
02:08:47.000 Hold on.
02:08:48.000 Let me do a quick shout out.
02:08:49.000 I'm going to go see what your hippies are doing.
02:08:51.000 Okay.
02:08:51.000 Nice.
02:08:51.000 Just come back up because we're going to... I'm good, but they're watching TV and not doing anything, bro.
02:08:55.000 Yeah, they're just hanging out.
02:08:56.000 That's all good.
02:09:00.000 Okay, so I got onto Twitter and I was kind of upset about the Minnesota thing because Minnesota has voted blue every single election since 1984.
02:09:08.000 Okay, you guys?
02:09:09.000 They know what they're voting for.
02:09:11.000 They know what they're doing.
02:09:12.000 They gave us Ilhan Omar.
02:09:13.000 They gave us Keith Ellison.
02:09:15.000 They effing know what they're doing.
02:09:18.000 They're blue as heck.
02:09:20.000 And they understand what they're voting for.
02:09:23.000 So the fact that Minneapolis is going down in flames, I honestly encourage people to move out and toast your s'mores over the flames in Minneapolis.
02:09:30.000 Because what else can you do?
02:09:32.000 They understand what they're voting for.
02:09:33.000 They know what they're doing.
02:09:35.000 Anyway, enough incendiary talk.
02:09:36.000 I'm Sarah Patchlitz on Twitter if you want to follow me.
02:09:39.000 Here's Tim.
02:09:40.000 We will see you all at TimCast.com in about an hour or so with the exclusive episode with Charlie the Duff.
02:09:45.000 Thanks for hanging out.
02:09:46.000 We'll see you there.
