Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Pfizer Director ATTACKS Veritas Crew After Being Confronted, DUDE LOSES IT w-Joe Kent

00:00:00.000 Project Veritas just put out the video we were talking about a little bit yesterday

00:00:25.000 that when they went to confront this Pfizer director asking about comments he made discussing

00:00:30.000 mutating the COVID virus profit, the man became irate, loses it totally, starts accusing Veritas

00:00:38.000 of doing illegal things, then physically attacks the Veritas crew, stealing the iPad and like

00:00:43.000 falling to the ground.

00:00:45.000 Chaos ensues.

00:00:46.000 The store owner locks James O'Keefe in the building.

00:00:49.000 This guy's screaming, calling the police.

00:00:51.000 Apparently, after James O'Keefe leaves, the dude is waving his arms in front of vehicles and cars, screaming, yelling, calling the cops.

00:01:00.000 Yeah, this is crazy.

00:01:01.000 This is a crazy story.

00:01:02.000 The guy goes out and says, I'm not really, I don't really work there.

00:01:05.000 I'm a consultant, and I was just lying to impress somebody.

00:01:09.000 But the way he freaks out and loses his mind says something.

00:01:13.000 Because, you know, maybe he's telling the truth.

00:01:14.000 Maybe he was lying.

00:01:16.000 Maybe he was just trying to impress a date.

00:01:17.000 That's fine.

00:01:18.000 James O'Keefe didn't come out and say, they're definitively doing gain-of-function research.

00:01:22.000 He said, a director at Pfizer said these things.

00:01:25.000 Why?

00:01:25.000 Tell us about it.

00:01:26.000 And the dude goes off.

00:01:28.000 Now that story, I really want to talk about it, because I think it matters what these big pharma companies are doing.

00:01:35.000 But yo, we got such crazy news today.

00:01:37.000 Atlanta, Antifa's going nuts, so the government is activating a thousand national guard.

00:01:42.000 Wow, who'd have thought?

00:01:43.000 Autonomous zone has grown out of control and there's, I don't know, terrorism happening.

00:01:46.000 They're charging these people with terrorism, so it's not even riots anymore.

00:01:49.000 We're at that level.

00:01:50.000 Then we got this, the FDA has come out, and YouTube, keep your pants on, The FDA, we have the story, we have the fact check, NewsGuard certified, is warning about a connection between strokes and taking the flu shot and the COVID shot.

00:02:06.000 If you get them within a certain amount of time, it increases your risk of stroke.

00:02:10.000 That's actually being reported right now.

00:02:12.000 Then, the US is sending tanks, the German foreign minister says, we are at war with Russia, and it's just like, wow.

00:02:19.000 A lot of this news happening within the past hour.

00:02:22.000 It's one heck of a Thursday, my friends.

00:03:44.000 Hey Tim, thanks for having me on.

00:03:45.000 Absolutely.

00:03:46.000 Welcome back.

00:03:47.000 Who are you?

00:03:47.000 What are you doing?

00:03:48.000 So I spent about 20 plus years in the military.

00:03:50.000 I was a Green Beret, retired from that, and then kind of got into politics.

00:03:54.000 I ran last cycle in 2022.

00:03:56.000 Won my primary, won the Republican nomination, and then came up a little bit short in the general.

00:04:00.000 And that was so much fun, I decided that I'm going to do it all over again.

00:04:03.000 So we just announced about two weeks ago that we're back in the fight for 24 for Washington.

00:04:07.000 Wow.

00:04:08.000 So I mean, you're getting started early.

00:04:09.000 That's early, right?

00:04:10.000 That's early.

00:04:11.000 We started early last time.

00:04:12.000 I mean, look, unfortunately, these things take a lot of money.

00:04:14.000 And so you need time to build up that war chest, especially if you're taking out an incumbent.

00:04:18.000 And then also, we just wanted to keep the momentum going because a lot of people are unhappy with the results.

00:04:24.000 I don't answer this, but I really I'm curious what would happen to your district if Eastern Oregon actually ends up seceding?

00:04:30.000 Like, do you have to move to Idaho?

00:04:32.000 But we'll talk about that.

00:04:33.000 We'll talk about that.

00:04:34.000 So thanks for hanging out.

00:04:35.000 We also got Phil Labonte hanging out.

00:04:36.000 Hello, everybody.

00:04:37.000 I am Phil Labonte.

00:04:38.000 Phil from All That Remains.

00:04:40.000 Phil That Remains on Twitter.

00:04:42.000 Yeah, happy to be here.

00:04:43.000 You're wearing a collared shirt today.

00:04:44.000 You know, the thing is, I know a lot of people watch this and, like, Tim's let me come in.

00:04:51.000 I want to do the band proud.

00:04:53.000 I don't want to embarrass my bandmates.

00:04:56.000 Right on.

00:04:56.000 Hannah-Claire Brimlow's hanging out?

00:04:57.000 Yeah, I'm here.

00:04:58.000 I'm Hannah-Claire Brimlow.

00:04:59.000 I'm a writer for TimCast.com.

00:05:01.000 For some reason they switched seats.

00:05:01.000 I don't know.

00:05:02.000 Whatever.

00:05:03.000 I just want everyone to notice what's not behind Phil right now.

00:05:06.000 I don't have control over these things.

00:05:08.000 We took the Biden down.

00:05:09.000 The creepy Biden was scaring children.

00:05:11.000 He's creepy.

00:05:12.000 That's a creepy painting.

00:05:13.000 You see the painting?

00:05:13.000 Yeah.

00:05:14.000 So we were like, we should get rid of it.

00:05:15.000 It was the right move.

00:05:15.000 It was definitely the right move.

00:05:17.000 Not just American flag.

00:05:18.000 It makes us feel good.

00:05:19.000 Perfect.

00:05:19.000 Now he's just kind of lurking below the table.

00:05:21.000 I'm not sure if that's any better.

00:05:23.000 Don't give away our secrets, Joe!

00:05:25.000 Come on! 0.61

00:05:26.000 Get over there and get him. 1.00

00:05:27.000 Come here, Joe.

00:05:28.000 We just want to know he's always with us.

00:05:29.000 That's the thing.

00:05:30.000 Exactly.

00:05:30.000 Yeah.

00:05:31.000 We got Serge pressing the buttons.

00:05:32.000 Yo, what's up, guys?

00:05:33.000 AskSerge.com.

00:05:34.000 Let's do this.

00:05:35.000 Right on.

00:05:35.000 All right, let's jump into this first story.

00:05:37.000 Check out this tweet.

00:05:38.000 We got this tweet from Benny Johnson.

00:05:39.000 He posted the video from Project Veritas.

00:05:41.000 I suppose I could have just pulled it up from Veritas, but Benny Johnson had a really great hashtag attached to it.

00:05:46.000 Lied suddenly, and we all thought that was pretty good, so shout out to Benny. 0.99

00:05:49.000 And this is the video.

00:05:51.000 I'll play just a little bit.

00:05:51.000 It's 10 minutes long.

00:05:52.000 I'm not going to play the whole thing for you, but we'll play a little bit of this so you can see what happens.

00:05:57.000 Hey there.

00:05:58.000 Is this seat taken?

00:05:59.000 You work for Pfizer.

00:06:00.000 My question for you is, why does Pfizer want to hide from the public the fact that they're mutating the COVID viruses?

00:06:06.000 Is this real life?

00:06:07.000 I'm literally a liar.

00:06:09.000 I was trying to impress a person on a date, but I'm lying. 0.87

00:06:13.000 This is absurd.

00:06:14.000 Please don't touch me.

00:06:15.000 Well this is not, by the way, don't tell anybody.

00:06:18.000 Why are you doing this?

00:06:19.000 This is not like, he was just working at a company to literally help the public. 0.99

00:06:23.000 You f***ed up. 0.99

00:06:24.000 You really did! 0.99

00:06:25.000 Can you please unlock your door?

00:06:30.000 No, no, don't let them leave.

00:06:31.000 Please unlock the door.

00:06:32.000 Don't let them leave.

00:06:33.000 Please, please unlock the door.

00:06:34.000 Then, look, he attacks James!

00:06:36.000 Look at this!

00:06:37.000 Please unlock the door.

00:06:43.000 Lock the door.

00:06:45.000 He says you can't just record people like that.

00:06:47.000 Actually, you can.

00:06:50.000 This is the best video in ages.

00:06:57.000 Yeah, this video is crazy.

00:06:58.000 That was the highlight reel.

00:06:59.000 And we talked about it a little bit yesterday.

00:07:01.000 So for those that don't know the context, James O'Keefe's Project Veritas was undercover filming a guy who's listed as a Pfizer director of strategic research or something like that.

00:07:12.000 And he's saying that they're exploring mutating COVID to sort of preempt it so they can make more vaccines, make more money off the vaccines.

00:07:18.000 He says, don't tell anybody.

00:07:20.000 They even have a clip in this where he's like, you're not recording me, are you?

00:07:22.000 Why do you keep talking about this?

00:07:24.000 Don't be recording me or whatever.

00:07:26.000 So that's the context here.

00:07:28.000 Now, I think James has been particularly forthcoming in breaking down what this story is.

00:07:33.000 You'll notice the first thing that James shows in it is the guy saying, I am a liar.

00:07:40.000 I was trying to impress someone on a date.

00:07:42.000 Not true.

00:07:43.000 He says, I'm not a doctor.

00:07:44.000 He says, I'm just a consultant.

00:07:46.000 Veritas put that right in the first 15 seconds.

00:07:49.000 They want you to understand that.

00:07:51.000 Of course, what you're gonna hear from the fact checkers, and I'll pull this up, is they're trying to make it seem like Veritas came out and asserted that Pfizer was doing this.

00:08:00.000 No, no, no, what Veritas came out and said was, hey, we got this guy on camera who is listed as a director at Pfizer saying they're looking into doing this.

00:08:09.000 Can we get some answers as to why he's talking about that?

00:08:12.000 Hey, maybe, maybe he is just trying to impress some guy on a date.

00:08:16.000 I would be surprised.

00:08:17.000 I talked about it the other day.

00:08:18.000 I think that happens.

00:08:20.000 People are, you know, there's, hey, let me tell you about the corporate malfeasance I'm involved in.

00:08:23.000 Yeah.

00:08:23.000 For some reason, they think it'll attract a mate.

00:08:26.000 The thirst.

00:08:26.000 That's why.

00:08:27.000 It's the thirst.

00:08:28.000 But yo, man, like we got a bunch of crazy news.

00:08:33.000 But when I actually saw the video of the dude physically attacking the Veritas crew, and then take a look at this at the end, James leaves.

00:08:41.000 Let me play the like the last minute.

00:08:43.000 Check this out.

00:08:43.000 Come on, guys.

00:08:44.000 Where's the where's the car?

00:08:46.000 Where's the vehicle?

00:08:47.000 Keep walking.

00:08:49.000 Come on.

00:08:49.000 This is insane.

00:08:49.000 So he's leaving, but I also want to point out, they locked the Veritas crew in the restaurant.

00:08:55.000 This is the weird thing.

00:08:56.000 James walks in all calmly, walks up to this guy, and he's like, can you answer why you said these things?

00:09:01.000 The dude goes to the store owner.

00:09:02.000 Store owner takes his side immediately.

00:09:04.000 And James is like, this calm dude wearing a suit, being like, I'm just a journalist asking questions.

00:09:08.000 Here's where it gets crazy.

00:09:09.000 She says, you need to leave.

00:09:10.000 And he goes, okay, we're leaving.

00:09:12.000 Then this guy, Walker, says, no, no, don't let them leave, don't leave.

00:09:17.000 And James is like, ma'am, he doesn't want us to leave.

00:09:20.000 Is it okay if we stay and ask him a few questions?

00:09:23.000 Then the lady apparently, or someone at the restaurant, goes and locks them in.

00:09:27.000 And James is like, can you please unlock the door and let me leave?

00:09:30.000 It's the craziest story.

00:09:32.000 So here's where we're at.

00:09:33.000 Now James is leaving.

00:09:34.000 Check this out.

00:09:35.000 Witness one of the most remarkable interactions ever.

00:09:37.000 Do we have the iPad?

00:09:39.000 So we're getting into the vehicle now.

00:09:40.000 Where's our car?

00:09:44.000 So it says, Walker desperately tried to stop a car he believed was crewed by Veritas.

00:09:49.000 And that car is like, what is going on?

00:09:53.000 But by this point, James and production had already left the restaurant.

00:09:59.000 That's so crazy.

00:10:03.000 He's charging the guy.

00:10:04.000 Charging, charging, charging.

00:10:05.000 You can't make an arrest at this point.

00:10:06.000 You don't have the victim right here.

00:10:09.000 Okay.

00:10:10.000 If he was here, you'd arrest that guy?

00:10:12.000 If he was here, yes.

00:10:13.000 If James O'Keefe was still there, they would have arrested Walker.

00:10:17.000 Here's what I gotta say about this and what we should talk about.

00:10:20.000 The ending there, I think, is the most revealing.

00:10:22.000 That he tried to stop a random car jumping up and down in the street.

00:10:26.000 Yeah.

00:10:27.000 What must be going through this guy's mind that he would have such, what's the, unhinged reaction, like, yo, dude, lost it.

00:10:36.000 I'm kinda wondering, you know, he works, he's saying, like, I'm lying, I swear I'm lying, and I'm wondering if, he spilled the beans in a situation where, you spill the beans like this, you could sink a multi-billion dollar company, you're gonna cause a lot of problems.

00:10:50.000 His reaction's only making it worse.

00:10:51.000 Yeah, absolutely.

00:10:52.000 And like, what's in his contract that they can bring against him now?

00:10:55.000 Like, what penalties is he gonna face from Pfizer?

00:10:57.000 I can't imagine.

00:10:58.000 NDA violation, easy.

00:11:00.000 Yeah, at least.

00:11:01.000 I imagine that, you know, being in that situation could end his career.

00:11:04.000 I mean, who's gonna want to hire the guy after that?

00:11:06.000 Well, I mean, to be honest...

00:11:09.000 If his reaction to James O'Keefe was like, look man, they're really doing it, and I don't know what I'm supposed to do, and it freaks me out.

00:11:17.000 That's why I was talking about it.

00:11:18.000 He got a job with James O'Keefe.

00:11:19.000 He got a job with James O'Keefe!

00:11:21.000 He could have been one of those whistleblowers that gets one of those GoFundMes.

00:11:23.000 Instead, he loses his mind and attacks them.

00:11:25.000 Now nobody was anywhere.

00:11:28.000 But I don't know, what do you think?

00:11:29.000 Is this just a guy who was lying because he wanted some dude to like him?

00:11:33.000 I think the big thing is we just need the government and Pfizer to just be honest with us.

00:11:36.000 I mean, I feel like this whole interaction was kind of like a microcosm of COVID since 2020.

00:11:43.000 Like if somebody said something and then someone else, James O'Keefe, came and said, hey, can I get some more information on that?

00:11:48.000 And then the regime...

00:11:50.000 him inside.

00:11:51.000 And they freak out.

00:11:52.000 You can't ask that question. 0.99

00:11:53.000 You're the liar. 1.00

00:11:54.000 The gas lighting starts. 1.00

00:11:55.000 You're the one that's in the wrong.

00:11:56.000 Then we all get locked inside together.

00:11:58.000 I mean, this has been the reaction since COVID started.

00:12:01.000 Anytime a reasonable person says, hey, can we get a little bit more information on this?

00:12:05.000 This is this is interesting that there was the Wuhan Institute of Virology right there.

00:12:08.000 Do you think maybe it came from that lab?

00:12:10.000 Boom, you're nuked automatically.

00:12:11.000 You say, hey, I don't want to have to take this vaccine.

00:12:14.000 I don't want to have to lock my community down.

00:12:16.000 And then boom, they are all over you.

00:12:18.000 Just like this, the exact same reaction that gentleman had.

00:12:21.000 Stuff with Wuhan. 1.00

00:12:22.000 I that's the this the thing that really bothers me the most is that is the most obvious assumption

00:12:29.000 Now, I don't know if it's true or not, right, whether it came from the lab or not.

00:12:33.000 Personally, it seems likely to me.

00:12:35.000 But at the same time, it also seems the most obvious thing that people are going to assume.

00:12:40.000 Right.

00:12:41.000 You know, so to new people's, you know, Twitter pages or or social media accounts or whatever, For saying something that is for an uninformed person, a person that's ignorant about how viruses work and stuff, making that kind of conclusion and saying, oh, well, that that seems it to me.

00:13:00.000 And then just being like, well, you lose all of your your social social media privileges just because you thought of something that seemed like an obvious idea.

00:13:08.000 The lab leak theory stuff was weird.

00:13:09.000 Early on during the pandemic, we talked about it, I talked about it, there was no issue on YouTube.

00:13:14.000 Then all of a sudden for like a few months there was.

00:13:16.000 If you claimed it was a lab leak, all of a sudden it was like, now you're getting banned.

00:13:20.000 Then all of a sudden it was gone again.

00:13:22.000 And then Jon Stewart came out and he said, come on guys.

00:13:26.000 Like you think the bat coronavirus emerged from a wet market Across the street from the Wuhan Coronavirus Research Center. 0.90

00:13:35.000 Yeah.

00:13:36.000 Come on.

00:13:37.000 And then Colbert actually argued with him.

00:13:38.000 And I'm like, at that point, everyone's kind of leaning in the direction.

00:13:41.000 And I think it's fair to say it's there's there's no direct Proof.

00:13:48.000 I think it's fair to say common sense or a reasonable assumption is, yo, come on.

00:13:52.000 Yeah.

00:13:53.000 But do we have like, I'll put it this way.

00:13:56.000 What we do have is early on in the pandemic, there were researchers at the University of Beijing who put out a report or some research paper saying that people have been bitten by bats and peed on by bats.

00:14:07.000 I would like some sworn testimony on that, but hey look, you're dealing with communist China, good luck getting it. 0.92

00:14:11.000 So I think it is a reasonable assumption that it's the case, but you know what?

00:14:16.000 I don't know.

00:14:17.000 I'm not an expert.

00:14:18.000 I defer to directors at Pfizer.

00:14:22.000 Right, let's hear what they have to say.

00:14:23.000 Who work on these things and tell their dates that it most likely came from a lab because they were doing gain-of-function research.

00:14:31.000 I like that at one point he goes, like all men, I lied. 0.88

00:14:34.000 I was like, man, you're just throwing everyone with you.

00:14:37.000 Sounds like a feminist. 1.00

00:14:38.000 Look, the bigger the story, the bigger the lie.

00:14:42.000 For him to come out, I lied, I lied, it's like, okay, now I don't think you did.

00:14:46.000 If he came out, there's so many things he could have done. 0.63

00:14:49.000 He could have come out and started just, he could have told James, I've been working with the CEO directly, and then just started hammering out the lies, had totally discredited himself, Instead, he goes the route of physically attacking, screaming, jumping in front of cars, yelling, I'm a liar! 0.99

00:15:06.000 I'm a liar! 0.99

00:15:06.000 Please believe me! 0.99

00:15:07.000 It's like- Really bad behavior. 0.85

00:15:09.000 Bro, if you're a liar, I'm not gonna believe you. 0.84

00:15:11.000 Yeah. 0.97

00:15:11.000 You know what I mean? 0.97

00:15:12.000 So I'll tell you what I think.

00:15:14.000 I don't think he was lying to impress a date.

00:15:16.000 I think he was trying to impress a date.

00:15:18.000 He's telling the truth to impress a date.

00:15:20.000 There's a part of this video, I think it's this video, where, right here, check this out, check this out, look at this.

00:15:25.000 This part right here, let me play this part.

00:15:26.000 I do not want the public to know that you guys are doing directed evolution.

00:15:32.000 Bro, what is going on here?

00:15:33.000 I thought it was like an interview.

00:15:35.000 I don't know, it just kept freaking me out.

00:15:37.000 These flashbacks of seeing an organization of those conservative people who would randomly go into organizations and then befriend people who work in these organizations and then report them, which happened to people at Pfizer.

00:15:49.000 So it freaks me out when people start asking a lot of questions about what we're doing.

00:15:55.000 Why would I go to this company?

00:15:57.000 Because I just want to know the answer.

00:16:00.000 And he was.

00:16:00.000 Oh man!

00:16:00.000 That's so crazy.

00:16:01.000 Oh my god, Jason, that'd be horrible.

00:16:03.000 You better not be recording me or something.

00:16:05.000 And he was.

00:16:07.000 Oh man!

00:16:09.000 That's so crazy. What's going on here?

00:16:11.000 That's crazy, dude.

00:16:14.000 That's hilarious.

00:16:15.000 You know what this reminds me of?

00:16:16.000 Why are we back on this topic?

00:16:18.000 Because I want to know the answer.

00:16:20.000 Walks in like Chris Hansen.

00:16:22.000 So he thought it, but then he still wanted to continue impressing his date.

00:16:24.000 And so the next day when James O'Keefe comes in, he's just like, oh man.

00:16:28.000 Well, we talked about this before.

00:16:29.000 You were saying like, at what point did they start dating?

00:16:32.000 Being suspicious, right?

00:16:33.000 That if you keep asking specifically about this job that you're not supposed to talk about, at what point are they like, maybe something's going on, but I guess this person is so, I don't know, unhinged, maybe a little bit emotionally loose.

00:16:44.000 This is why I think you're telling the truth.

00:16:46.000 He actually gets to the point where he expresses, why are you asking me this?

00:16:50.000 It kind of makes me feel like I'm being recorded.

00:16:52.000 Yeah, like, he's starting to realize, hey, wait a minute, what I'm saying could be a problem.

00:16:58.000 Second or third of the date in, though.

00:17:00.000 Third date, I think.

00:17:01.000 He said third date in the video.

00:17:02.000 Oh, man.

00:17:03.000 I mean, I gotta say, I do feel bad because These people are on dates.

00:17:12.000 They're laughing.

00:17:13.000 They're enjoying themselves.

00:17:14.000 This guy goes on some dating app, meets some guy he really likes, and then, you know, he's like, they're out for pizza.

00:17:18.000 They got this nice pizza there.

00:17:20.000 Could you imagine, like, sitting down, you're chilling, not trying to think about work.

00:17:24.000 The dude you're actually with is about to destroy your life.

00:17:27.000 Yeah.

00:17:27.000 And he's secretly recording you.

00:17:29.000 I do feel bad for him.

00:17:31.000 It is also, at the same time, hilarious.

00:17:34.000 I can't help it.

00:17:35.000 Well, no, his reaction going crazy is hilarious.

00:17:40.000 But I'm just like, man, I think his brain broke when he realized.

00:17:45.000 Yeah, he's totally panicking.

00:17:47.000 Look, when you get a Twitter employee being like, yeah, we ban people, then the information

00:17:52.000 gets released by Veritas.

00:17:53.000 It's like, well, what's the worst that's going to happen? 0.99

00:17:55.000 Your liberal friends are going to be like, good for you, screw those Nazis. 0.82

00:17:59.000 But what happens if you come out and you're like, all those evil things you've been accused of that you don't believe are happening, I admit it to people in private. 0.95

00:18:05.000 And now everybody knows I said it.

00:18:07.000 And that I, you know, either I'm lying or we're doing so.

00:18:10.000 Now what are you gonna do?

00:18:12.000 Yeah, he knows he's basically gonna validate the argument of the other side that they've already said is completely and totally evil.

00:18:17.000 So where does that leave him?

00:18:18.000 I think that's probably why he's in such a panic.

00:18:20.000 I bet the media comes out now and says, mentally unhinged man confronted by Veritas, story completely discredited.

00:18:29.000 You think they're gonna throw him under the bus?

00:18:30.000 Oh yeah.

00:18:31.000 It's almost gonna be like, he has a history of this, that, and the other, which like, is almost more disgusting, because if that's true, if he has whatever issues, like, they're gonna use it for their protection.

00:18:41.000 Check out this story from Newsweek.

00:18:43.000 Fact check!

00:18:44.000 Does Project Veritas video show Pfizer is mutating COVID?

00:18:48.000 Hold on there a little minute, Newsweek!

00:18:50.000 Why are you fact checking a claim that's not been made?

00:18:53.000 This is the interesting about how the media manipulates public perception.

00:18:56.000 Project Veritas released a story that says, Pfizer director says thing.

00:19:02.000 They did not say thing was happening.

00:19:03.000 They said, hey, look, we filmed a guy who said they're exploring mutating COVID, that he thinks the virus came from the lab, et cetera, or intimated that it did.

00:19:13.000 So the media does is, does Project Veritas video show Pfizer is mutating COVID?

00:19:18.000 But no one made that claim.

00:19:20.000 Now they can come out and say false.

00:19:22.000 It doesn't.

00:19:23.000 Here's the crazy thing about it, though.

00:19:25.000 We'll jump straight straight down to the bottom.

00:19:27.000 Actually, it leans slightly towards true.

00:19:31.000 It says unverified.

00:19:33.000 So it's not misleading.

00:19:34.000 It's not false.

00:19:35.000 It's not satire.

00:19:36.000 It's just unverified, which puts their needle leaning towards true.

00:19:39.000 OK, that's kind of crazy because James did not say that they that Pfizer as a company was doing this thing.

00:19:47.000 Now, a bunch of people are complaining about the fact check because the fact check does just needlessly disparage Project Veritas and falsely frame the question at hand.

00:19:57.000 But when even Newsweek, and Newsweek isn't the worst, but when even they try to falsely frame this and still end up with I can't say it's not true.

00:20:06.000 It's kind of interesting where we're at these days.

00:20:08.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:20:09.000 And they're just trying to throw so much, like, white noise, I think, at it to avoid the obvious question.

00:20:14.000 I mean, everything that guy says is very compelling, especially when you verify his CV.

00:20:17.000 Like, this guy actually is working on these things, and the obvious question is, what is he talking about?

00:20:22.000 But then they have to throw this, well, you know, did they really say they were doing gain-of-function and just debunked and that?

00:20:28.000 Yeah, I guess.

00:20:29.000 The crazy thing is, The media's not even, they're completely ignoring it.

00:20:33.000 Yeah.

00:20:33.000 I mean, I shouldn't say it's crazy.

00:20:35.000 In the context of Newsweek trying to do a fact check, it's crazy that this is completely being ignored when the video, I think it got, in like eight hours, 10 million views.

00:20:44.000 Probably more, because I shared it, other people re-hosted it, things like that, but I'm pretty sure 10 million views on this video in a day.

00:20:53.000 It's wild.

00:20:54.000 I mean, I think that I think the consensus here is probably that he was not actually lying, that he is telling the truth.

00:21:01.000 Because even if you're even if you were thinking, I'm going to tell this person stories that are not true to impress them, why would you tell them the stuff that the people you just said you are afraid are coming to find you?

00:21:17.000 Why would you tell them the stuff that they're looking to hear?

00:21:21.000 That's why I was saying, like, when he's in the video being like, you're not one of those secret conservatives recording me, right?

00:21:25.000 It's like, he's starting to think, wait a minute, did I just spill the beans on this one?

00:21:30.000 But ultimately, I guess here's my question, we'll make a political, like, what do we do about it?

00:21:35.000 So let's, this guy said this thing, okay?

00:21:38.000 He did, it's a fact, he said it.

00:21:40.000 James O'Keefe has done his due diligence and shown this guy is listed as having this job.

00:21:45.000 So what do we get?

00:21:46.000 Should the Republicans subpoena this guy?

00:21:49.000 I would think so, yeah.

00:21:51.000 They're doing the COVID investigation.

00:21:54.000 They're launching that.

00:21:55.000 What do we get out of it?

00:21:55.000 Do you think anything will come of it?

00:21:57.000 Well, hopefully we get some sunlight and we get to actually see once and for all, maybe not everything we want to see, but we get some very basic questions asked.

00:22:04.000 I mean, I think this just goes into the file of all the other evidence we have.

00:22:09.000 I mean, everything that's happening right now in the medical community died suddenly, all that.

00:22:12.000 The questions that people have, I would add this to that long list and that this guy should be subpoenaed.

00:22:17.000 You know, he should be, he should be questioned or the folks that work for him, his supervisor.

00:22:21.000 I mean, this just gives us a good starting point.

00:22:24.000 I think it's interesting that he is so comfortable with this information that, you know, first, second, third date, he's talking about it, right?

00:22:30.000 Like, that's unusual.

00:22:31.000 Everyone has a first date anecdote that they, you know, bring out to, like, show your personality or whatever, and this is his.

00:22:37.000 So that means that he's in an environment where they're openly talking about this comfortably, right?

00:22:43.000 This can't be the only person.

00:22:44.000 He can't have only told a Project Veritas person about this.

00:22:47.000 Like, who else?

00:22:47.000 And that means that this is something that they... Because what struck me about the first video is him saying like, oh yeah, this would be bad for America, but it's good for us.

00:22:55.000 And then in this video he's like talking about himself.

00:22:58.000 How could he ever trust anything?

00:22:59.000 Like, it's only self-centered motivation.

00:23:03.000 Yeah.

00:23:03.000 Do you think The Republican Congress is actually going to do legitimate investigations into all of these issues.

00:23:11.000 I mean, it's not just the pandemic stuff.

00:23:13.000 You got the Hunter Biden stuff.

00:23:14.000 We talked about this before they narrowly won, but we're not entirely confident.

00:23:19.000 I mean, we as in the people on the show.

00:23:22.000 Kevin McCarthy is actually going to give us real investigations.

00:23:25.000 So far, so good.

00:23:26.000 I mean, I think what the direction they're heading right now, they're putting the right people on those committees.

00:23:31.000 I mean, MTG is on the COVID committee.

00:23:33.000 I mean, that's pretty awesome.

00:23:35.000 We've got Jim Jordan, Dan Bishop, and a couple other fighters that are on the government accountability, the modern day church committee.

00:23:41.000 Um, going after the intelligence community, going after the administrative state.

00:23:45.000 So we've got the right people lined up.

00:23:47.000 Now, a big question is what can they do?

00:23:48.000 They can issue subpoenas.

00:23:50.000 Unfortunately, since the budget got approved, all these different agencies, they have their money.

00:23:54.000 So these agencies can do what they just did with Jim Jordan.

00:23:57.000 He issued some subpoenas and they said, the DOJ said, we'd love to, we'd love to help.

00:24:00.000 However, this stuff's all under investigation.

00:24:02.000 So we can't help you.

00:24:03.000 So Congress is a little bit limited in saying that, Hey, if you guys don't show up and participate, We are going to withhold some of your funding.

00:24:09.000 That's not going to be available until next year.

00:24:11.000 But I think right now, the direction things are heading, I think we will start getting some answers, at least.

00:24:16.000 My biggest fear is not about answers.

00:24:20.000 It's that we'll get some kind of answers, but there will be nothing that's done.

00:24:24.000 Like, we could find out terrible things, that Pfizer's doing awful things, but because the executive branch is Democrat and it's Joe Biden, I don't see him actually making a move.

00:24:33.000 But this is exactly why I asked it.

00:24:34.000 James O'Keefe does this sting operation, gets a pretty damning quote from someone high up at Pfizer, be it a consultant or otherwise, maybe he's lying, sure.

00:24:44.000 This warrants, in my opinion, investigation.

00:24:46.000 Absolutely.

00:24:47.000 But it's not even about the executive branch, it's like...

00:24:50.000 So we have this panel, of course, of people like Marjorie Taylor Greene.

00:24:52.000 Are they gonna issue the subpoenas?

00:24:54.000 Are they actually going to get documents?

00:24:56.000 Are they actually going to make people come in and testify even beyond the executive branch?

00:25:00.000 But I think your point's better, that we can maybe assume Marjorie Taylor Greene's definitely gonna do something.

00:25:05.000 Yeah.

00:25:05.000 But then what?

00:25:06.000 The DOJ does nothing?

00:25:07.000 Yeah, the only thing Congress has is the sergeant-at-arms.

00:25:09.000 Other than that, it's like they can't do anything to make anything happen unless the executive... Unless you're evil, like Chef.

00:25:16.000 Yeah.

00:25:17.000 Well... I mean, even, to be fair, he didn't even get to.

00:25:21.000 Another good thing is that we got Schiff kicked off the intel committee.

00:25:23.000 Schiff and Swalwell.

00:25:24.000 That dude is pretty epic.

00:25:26.000 Evil, man.

00:25:27.000 Yeah, absolutely.

00:25:28.000 And he should be held accountable.

00:25:29.000 I mean, he released private phone records of a sitting member of Congress, Devin Nunes, and he released the private phone records of a U.S., a private U.S.

00:25:37.000 citizen, John Solomon, and a journalist.

00:25:41.000 He said in February of 2018 that they had evidence Trump colluded with Russia, but it just wasn't publicly available.

00:25:47.000 This guy was lying the whole time.

00:25:51.000 That's scary.

00:25:51.000 That's like one of the number one ways you can abuse your security clearance.

00:25:54.000 I mean, I had security clearance the entire time I was in the military.

00:25:56.000 I worked in the CIA for a little bit, but for him to lie and say, I have this access to classified information.

00:26:02.000 It's really bad.

00:26:02.000 I can't tell you what it is.

00:26:03.000 You just have to trust me.

00:26:04.000 We need to start ruining people's lives like that. 0.52

00:26:07.000 Anybody else would be absolutely annihilated out of the intelligence community.

00:26:10.000 Can you talk about your time at the CIA?

00:26:13.000 Sure.

00:26:14.000 What did you do?

00:26:15.000 Yeah, I was a paramilitary operations officer.

00:26:17.000 So case officer who has a special operations background who goes into this paramilitary stuff.

00:26:22.000 He's a CIA guy that gets into gunfights.

00:26:25.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:26:26.000 So the core mission of the CIA is to go out and to recruit human sources.

00:26:31.000 A lot of places that we need to do that are very dangerous places.

00:26:33.000 And so they'll hire guys out of special operations.

00:26:36.000 So you worked directly with the CIA, you weren't like a contractor or anything?

00:26:39.000 No, yeah, I was a full on GS employee.

00:26:42.000 What's your general opinion, considering what we've seen with the DOJ, with the intelligence community, with a lot of corruption?

00:26:47.000 What's your assessment?

00:26:49.000 Oh, it's rotten to the core.

00:26:51.000 I mean, the CIA, the FBI, DOJ, like, the problem is we've had these bureaucrats that have been running things at the mid to senior levels.

00:26:58.000 The Pentagon's the same way.

00:26:59.000 I spent 20 years in the military.

00:27:00.000 Your average person who enlists in the military or becomes an officer in the military, they, you know, they want to, they're just, you know, like I was, they want to go serve their country.

00:27:07.000 Same thing in the intelligence community.

00:27:09.000 However, there is this administrative class that endures every single administration that we really never saw rear its ugly head in all of our lifetimes, obviously Kennedy and all that, but really until Trump came in.

00:27:20.000 So I came in in 98 under Clinton, served all the way through.

00:27:24.000 And, like, when Obama was elected, most of us, I was a Green Beret at the time, you know, we lean a little bit right.

00:27:29.000 Not all of us, but we weren't happy that Obama won, but we took an oath to support and defend the Constitution.

00:27:33.000 Obama was the boss.

00:27:34.000 None of us questioned it.

00:27:35.000 You know, fast forward eight years when Trump gets elected, and that's not who the administrative state, the managerial class, that's not who they want.

00:27:42.000 And it was a night and day difference.

00:27:44.000 Like, they basically said that they were not going to adhere to Trump's orders.

00:27:48.000 And they follow through with that?

00:27:49.000 Like, how did they implement that?

00:27:51.000 They implemented that mostly by just slow roll.

00:27:53.000 I mean, especially this is basically the long story of how I got into politics.

00:27:56.000 My late wife was also in the military.

00:27:58.000 She was killed fighting ISIS in Syria one month after Trump gave the order to pull our troops out because Trump ran on, hey, I'm going to end these endless wars.

00:28:05.000 We need to go fight and destroy ISIS.

00:28:07.000 But once we destroy ISIS, we're not staying in Syria.

00:28:10.000 There was a huge concerted effort.

00:28:11.000 There still is.

00:28:12.000 Within the administrative state, the DoD, to keep us in Syria and do like another great regime change war because those always work out so well. 0.98

00:28:19.000 And Trump wasn't having any of it.

00:28:20.000 He gave the order to pull the troops out.

00:28:22.000 Mattis resigns.

00:28:23.000 Brett McGurk over at State resigns.

00:28:25.000 And Trump's orders, the commander in chief, the people that the American people chose, his orders were completely and totally disregarded.

00:28:31.000 And a month later, my wife was killed over there.

00:28:33.000 So that's, And so I've seen that time and time again.

00:28:36.000 And with Trump, it went everywhere from like the benign slow roll, public resignation, all the way to everything we've seen with Russiagate, the tools of the intelligence community being used against a candidate in a political campaign at the time, all the way to all the guys in government, you know?

00:28:50.000 I mean, I could go on for hours about all that.

00:28:53.000 But yeah, I mean, I think the Trump administration just really, because they weren't expecting him to come in and they weren't expecting him to push back so hard, we really got a snapshot of what's going on below the surface there.

00:29:04.000 That's something that I think is one of the most valuable things about the Trump presidency.

00:29:09.000 As much as there are people out there that are going to go ahead and say that Trump was a foreign agent or in bed with foreign agents and stuff, it really did show that the bureaucracy really is the uniparty.

00:29:23.000 There's one agenda that the Government has and the whether it be Republican or a Democrat, the differences are marginal.

00:29:34.000 You know, you're talking about a two or three degree shift in policy.

00:29:37.000 Mostly cosmetic.

00:29:38.000 Yeah.

00:29:38.000 And then you get someone in like Trump that regardless of what you think of him, it seems like the guy really wanted to do the things that he said.

00:29:47.000 And everybody was flipping out because when does a politician try to do the things that they said they're going to do?

00:29:53.000 Like that hasn't happened in decades or whatever.

00:29:55.000 So I think that it was a really good thing that That at the very least, Trump being in office and seeing that the bureaucracy, the entrenched bureaucracy or the deep state, whatever you want to call it, they literally are running the show and will do everything they can to throw a monkey wrench in even the president's

00:30:12.000 So what do you say to people who will just say, you're a Fed.

00:30:16.000 Why should I trust you?

00:30:17.000 Yeah.

00:30:18.000 I mean, that's, I understand.

00:30:19.000 I get that actually quite a bit.

00:30:21.000 But here's the thing.

00:30:23.000 Yeah.

00:30:23.000 I mean, I tell people my background was, my job in the CIA is, you know, counterterrorism.

00:30:27.000 But if we're going to take down the administrative state, we need people from the inside who understands exactly how the sausage is made, where the secrets are kept and those types of things.

00:30:38.000 Because I think a lot of times we get I'll say two things.

00:30:40.000 Congress calls these intelligence officials, Department of Defense folks to the carpet

00:30:43.000 and says, hey, explain things to us.

00:30:44.000 They say, well, I can't.

00:30:45.000 It's classified.

00:30:46.000 That's sources and methods.

00:30:47.000 And if you have people that have worked in that space before, you can really start pushing

00:30:50.000 back.

00:30:51.000 I'll say two things.

00:30:52.000 The first is to that point about needing people from the inside to come out and explain what's

00:30:57.000 going on.

00:30:58.000 I mean, this is what Project Veritas does.

00:31:00.000 They get whistleblowers, often.

00:31:02.000 Sometimes it's a sting, sometimes it's a whistleblower.

00:31:04.000 So how many people work for Project Veritas right now who are literally the people at big tech working on the censorship who said, this is bad, I can't do this, and then went to Veritas and said, let's change it.

00:31:15.000 Not to dissimilar, you working for the CIA coming out saying, hey, this is bad, we need to change it.

00:31:19.000 However, I will also add the old saying, once CIA, always CIA.

00:31:24.000 So, I think this is why a lot of people are, in the chat, they're all like, FedCast, he's a Fed!

00:31:31.000 The spook is here!

00:31:33.000 I feel like it must be different.

00:31:34.000 You're describing being Green Beret, taking this office, you say, oh yeah, I didn't want to bomb in, but I took an oath, whereas you have this other class that feels like when they lose, they get to manipulate the system. 0.96

00:31:45.000 You know what I mean?

00:31:46.000 I could see, maybe you are a Fed, but at the same time, I could see that there is a division even within that.

00:31:53.000 To me, that speaks to a lot of the dissatisfaction with the lack of military recruiting that we have right now.

00:31:59.000 I mean, if you guys can't turn around and say to the next guy coming up, hey, there are some challenges, but it was worth it, then how are we going to keep that system rolling?

00:32:08.000 Maybe we shouldn't.

00:32:09.000 I don't know how we're going to keep our country.

00:32:10.000 I mean, that's a big thing.

00:32:11.000 Like when we can't recruit for the military, like I'm against all the escalations and all that, but we need to have a military.

00:32:16.000 If people aren't willing, I mean, that's a huge issue.

00:32:18.000 People aren't willing to join the military.

00:32:20.000 You know, the weirdest thing to me is this, it's like a demand for conspiracy.

00:32:25.000 It's a demand.

00:32:26.000 Ron DeSantis starts giving people everything they want.

00:32:29.000 He opposes critical race theory, he opposes the gender ideology, he opens up the country, he starts implementing these policies.

00:32:36.000 Then we start hearing from just some people, they're like, it's too good to be true, he's deep state, he's got bad people around him.

00:32:42.000 And I'm just like, if you can't vote for exactly what you want, you've lost already.

00:32:48.000 So it's like, the best thing you can do is support what Is good and what you need and want and hope for the best, but like politicians lie.

00:32:57.000 I mean, what can you expect?

00:32:58.000 The thing that sucks is, is like most people feel the same way.

00:33:02.000 And so that's why you have the, the, you know, the, the uniparty you get Democrats and Republicans. 0.57

00:33:08.000 And people are like, well, I don't really like the Democrats, but I really hate the Republicans, so I'm going to vote for the Democrats.

00:33:13.000 And then you have people that are like, well, I really hate the Democrats.

00:33:17.000 I don't like the Republicans much, but I'm going to vote for the Republicans.

00:33:19.000 No one gets a perfect candidate.

00:33:21.000 And I think that a lot of the problem is people Look at our government as if it should be a top-down government, and they don't realize or don't think about the fact that the people that are going to have the most effect on their daily lives are their local politicians and congresspeople.

00:33:38.000 If you write your congressperson, you may get a response.

00:33:42.000 If you write your senator, you ain't getting a response.

00:33:44.000 If you write the president, you ain't getting a response.

00:33:46.000 But you go to your city council, you start going to school board.

00:33:48.000 I've been going to a lot of school board meetings in this process I've had of being a candidate.

00:33:51.000 And I mean, that's school board meetings and engaging with your sheriff.

00:33:55.000 I mean, that right there, that's the stuff that actually affects people's everyday lives.

00:33:58.000 It's a little bit different.

00:33:58.000 We had harsh COVID lockdown, so we had the overstep of the federal government and our governor as well.

00:34:03.000 But yeah, that's definitely true.

00:34:04.000 But it's still the local politicians that are going to battle the federal government on your behalf, right?

00:34:09.000 You still need them.

00:34:10.000 You need them 100%.

00:34:11.000 Let's jump to this story, which is oh so spicy.

00:34:15.000 We got this one from the Daily Mail.

00:34:17.000 Before I read the headline, I just want to say, do not take medical advice from podcasters.

00:34:21.000 Talk to trusted medical professionals about what's right for you.

00:34:24.000 Because the Daily Mail says getting Pfizer's COVID booster and flu vaccine on the same day may raise the risk of a stroke, FDA says.

00:34:33.000 The FDA says it, okay?

00:34:34.000 The FDA?

00:34:35.000 The Food and Drug Administration found the preliminary link while scouring vaccine injury databases after a separate safety concern was raised about Pfizer's jab.

00:34:44.000 Earlier this month, one of the country's vaccine surveillance systems flagged a possible association between the Omicron-specific shot and an elevated risk of ischemic stroke among seniors over 65.

00:34:54.000 FDA officials who have been investigating the link said most of the patients had also received their flu shot on the same day, which might be a factor.

00:35:02.000 Millions of Americans got both shots at the same time this winter following a major public health push by the White House.

00:35:08.000 In September, Dr. Ashish Jha, White House COVID response coordinator, said, quote, I believe this is why God gave us two arms, one for the flu shot and the other for the COVID shot.

00:35:17.000 Yo, wait a minute, I mean, this, I don't know if this is definitively the cause of why we're hearing about more strokes, why more excess death or heart attacks, but the White House was telling people to get both, it's quoted, and the FDA is now saying, there may be a link here.

00:35:34.000 So, I don't know, I guess, how long do you think it'll be until they come out and definitively be like, oh yeah, about all that, that was correct.

00:35:41.000 Like, is the FDA wrong right now to suggest this?

00:35:44.000 I'll frame it that way for our friends over at YouTube.

00:35:47.000 At least they put it out there.

00:35:48.000 I mean, I do think we're in this weird space right now where I think our ruling class has realized they got this whole COVID thing completely and totally wrong.

00:35:56.000 But because of pride, them worrying about any kind of repercussions, but then also just the whole sunken cost fallacy.

00:36:03.000 You continue to double down.

00:36:04.000 It's really hard to say, you know what, we got this wrong, especially since we were so harsh on all the random people out there who said, I have questions, I don't know if I want to do that.

00:36:11.000 This is funny because it's a casino dad joke.

00:36:15.000 When you lose a bet, you go, well, you know what they say, when you lose a bet, just gamble twice as much because you're not supposed to do that.

00:36:21.000 That's how the casinos are built. 0.83

00:36:22.000 That's right.

00:36:25.000 This is kind of crazy for me to see this story.

00:36:26.000 I mean, we had so many crazy stories just come out in the past couple of hours when we started this show.

00:36:31.000 And what had happened was, I think it was a couple of weeks ago, they said that they found a potential signal between, I think it was strokes, I think it was strokes, I'm not sure.

00:36:40.000 There was a signal between vaccines and some negative side effect, but they're not sure if it was actually correct.

00:36:44.000 Now it looks like they're saying, the FDA is saying this, that they went in and they started looking and said, hey, wait a minute, maybe it's because people are getting both these shots at the same time.

00:36:54.000 Yeah.

00:36:54.000 That could explain a lot.

00:36:55.000 I mean, I feel like the FDA wouldn't come out and even give a potentially there's maybe something there unless they had to, right?

00:37:03.000 Like they don't want to cede any territory on this front.

00:37:06.000 It's not just that.

00:37:06.000 I mean, imagine you work for the FDA and you're sitting there looking at this document that says this thing and you're thinking, I'm going to lose my job at Pfizer when I retire from the FDA if I put this report out, but you really have no choice.

00:37:18.000 Yeah.

00:37:19.000 And the crazy thing is like the vaccine, if this was any other vaccine or booster, I think they would say, Hey, wait, stop.

00:37:25.000 We don't know what's going on here.

00:37:26.000 Let's, let's, you know, have a pause.

00:37:28.000 Let's study it.

00:37:29.000 But because they've invested so much in it right now, all we get is these like kind of willy nilly warnings because it's the sacred COVID vaccine.

00:37:36.000 I half agree.

00:37:38.000 With Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca, they did put a stop on those because I think, what was it, AstraZeneca was the blood clot one?

00:37:45.000 Yeah, AstraZeneca was.

00:37:46.000 And then Johnson & Johnson.

00:37:47.000 Johnson & Johnson was blood clots, but it was only the one dose, and there were other, like, comorbidities that were up there.

00:37:52.000 Yeah, like, the U.S.

00:37:53.000 doesn't have AstraZeneca, I'm pretty sure.

00:37:55.000 And then, you want to fact check this one?

00:37:57.000 I'm pretty sure the U.S., they said, hey, we're going to put a pause on the Johnson & Johnson one because of a risk of blood clotting or something like that.

00:38:02.000 And then WebMD, I think it is, and the American Heart Association have come out and said

00:38:08.000 that there is, that myocarditis is a rare side effect of the mRNA vaccines.

00:38:13.000 So it seems like a lot of the fears people had early on are now just basically being affirmed by powerful

00:38:20.000 institutions and health organizations.

00:38:22.000 That being said, I will stress, they also add, they're extremely rare side effects, but they do find these links.

00:38:28.000 So, I want to make sure people don't, look, I know a lot of people are outright, either, people are like, either everyone must be vaccinated or totally anti-vax.

00:38:36.000 It's like, it's fine to be somewhere in the middle and just be like, look, talk to a doctor.

00:38:40.000 COVID could be causing this.

00:38:41.000 It could be a combination of things.

00:38:43.000 It could be, like you said, they've invested too heavily in this and they won't back down.

00:38:46.000 Johnson & Johnson pulled, or the U.S.

00:38:49.000 pulled Johnson & Johnson because of a link to blood clots in December 2021, and then AstraZeneca was paused in Europe by a bunch of different countries in May of 2022.

00:38:59.000 I think, isn't some country stopping the vaccine, the mRNA vaccine, for like people under 29?

00:39:03.000 Was that Sweden or something?

00:39:05.000 One of those Scandinavian countries.

00:39:06.000 Well, there was a whole wave of countries that paused COVID vaccines.

00:39:11.000 I think it was Pfizer specifically for young men because they saw the link to myocarditis and all the heart issues.

00:39:18.000 And then they kept raising it.

00:39:20.000 It went from being like, oh, well, 12 to 18.

00:39:22.000 And then I think in some countries it went all the way up to like 45.

00:39:25.000 We got a problem with this.

00:39:27.000 If the FDA is really putting the story out, because if they're saying that a combination of vaccines can cause problems, then we've got to have an inquiry on, have we done studies on the combination of all vaccines?

00:39:39.000 I don't think, I don't think you really, I think it's very difficult to do this.

00:39:42.000 I think the conditions were different. I don't think that there's any question about the fact that the FDA would be

00:39:46.000 like, stop everything.

00:39:47.000 Stop. You can't put this out.

00:39:49.000 Blah, blah, blah, etc. I think that that that goes without saying.

00:39:52.000 The reason that they're so tentative about this is because they for so long were pushing so hard and demonized the

00:39:59.000 population and called people all the names that you could possibly imagine.

00:40:04.000 And now they're like, oh, well, they've already destroyed their credibility.

00:40:09.000 And they think that they're defending you from terrible conspiracy theorists, right?

00:40:12.000 Yes. Saying like, well, we can't give up this front because then the conspiracy theorists have won and they'll they'll

00:40:17.000 tell you all sorts of horrible things.

00:40:19.000 It actually reminds me of conversations people have about.

00:40:21.000 um...

00:40:23.000 Preservatives in foods, right?

00:40:24.000 Like, if you eat store-manufactured food or whatever all day, you're actually putting a ton of stuff into your body you don't know about.

00:40:30.000 I don't know anything about it, really, but, like, it is something you wonder.

00:40:33.000 I can only imagine putting lots of different types of vaccines that you can't in a consistent way test their interactions.

00:40:41.000 It's a gamble.

00:40:41.000 Oh, well, you can test their interactions.

00:40:43.000 It's just a question of, have we?

00:40:45.000 Well, and also, it would be difficult to reproduce study after study after study that are able to consistently test them.

00:40:52.000 Let's talk about the actual challenge here.

00:40:54.000 I mean, the permutations of vaccine combinations is probably in the billions or trillions.

00:41:01.000 So we actually do have a challenge in this idea of health technology.

00:41:07.000 We make vaccines.

00:41:09.000 Most of the vaccines that people get have been tested and tried out for decades.

00:41:13.000 We seem to be doing all right.

00:41:15.000 I've gotten a whole bunch of crazy shots when I was traveling the world.

00:41:18.000 I'm totally okay.

00:41:19.000 And so I know there's a lot of people who are like staunchly anti-vax.

00:41:22.000 We had Candace Owens on. 1.00

00:41:23.000 She talked about this on the Members Only show.

00:41:26.000 She gave her opinions on this.

00:41:28.000 But the question is, every time we come out with a new medication, it would be impossible to, and not even vaccines, but any drug, any drug.

00:41:36.000 So let's say they come out with a new painkiller.

00:41:38.000 They're going to have to test what happens if someone's on this painkiller and drug A, drug B, drug C, drug D, drug E, drug F. I mean the combinations are going to be in ridiculous numbers.

00:41:48.000 Now they do have like counter indications like hey don't take this if you're taking this.

00:41:52.000 So to the best of their abilities they do track this stuff but for the most part it seems what happens is They give someone a painkiller.

00:41:58.000 The person's also on a blood thinner.

00:42:00.000 They then see the person have a negative reaction.

00:42:03.000 They then, you know, track this and say, hey, over the past thousand combinations of these drugs, we saw negative reactions.

00:42:09.000 So it's like the studies are happening in real time, essentially.

00:42:13.000 I think, I guess what I'm trying to say is, Any attempt we're going to have at making drugs or medical technology is going to run into side effect problems.

00:42:22.000 And how we navigate that stuff, I don't know.

00:42:24.000 I think just being honest, I mean, I think the reason why we're seeing so many people now that are outright like militant anti-vaxxers is because they've been lying to us about so many different things regarding COVID.

00:42:36.000 We talked about this a few years ago.

00:42:37.000 Ian brought up a really great point.

00:42:38.000 We were all like, no lockdowns, lockdowns are wrong.

00:42:40.000 vaccines. I don't trust anything you guys are saying.

00:42:42.000 And that's pretty dangerous because I think if like a real legit lethal virus hit

00:42:46.000 the U.S. shores tomorrow, there's a lot of people, probably myself included, that

00:42:50.000 would be like, I don't believe you.

00:42:51.000 I'm not going to take that. We talked about a few years ago.

00:42:53.000 Ian brought up a really great point.

00:42:55.000 We were all like, no, lockdowns, lockdowns are wrong.

00:42:58.000 And he said, what if it was an airborne Ebola?

00:43:00.000 Yeah.

00:43:00.000 And then we're like, okay, that's an interesting point.

00:43:02.000 But ultimately, the conclusion we came to was, look, if you choose to go out during a pandemic, it's your choice.

00:43:07.000 And if you don't want to stay inside, lock your doors.

00:43:10.000 But there is an interesting question I have, right?

00:43:13.000 A lot of people are staunchly anti-vax, but my question legitimately, maybe I'll do a poll on this.

00:43:17.000 I don't know if I can phrase it, get enough characters to make a poll on this one.

00:43:22.000 But people have gotten COVID.

00:43:23.000 Some people have said it's not that bad.

00:43:25.000 Some people have said it was pretty bad.

00:43:26.000 Some people said it was apocalyptically bad.

00:43:28.000 For me, it was nightmarishly bad.

00:43:29.000 It was the worst illness I've ever gotten.

00:43:31.000 I've had the flu before and I was pale and shaking.

00:43:33.000 I got COVID, I actually called a hospital.

00:43:36.000 Oh, really?

00:43:36.000 Yeah, yeah, because it was bad.

00:43:39.000 My temperature was really low, my breathing was very heavy, and it was pain all over, and then I ended up getting monoclonal antibodies.

00:43:47.000 I've told this story a million times.

00:43:48.000 My question is this.

00:43:49.000 For the people who are not trusting of the government, if you actually witnessed people suffering Ebola symptoms, like you walk outside into the streets and people have blood coming out of their eyes, and they're hacking up black, and they're going, and they're falling over, And then the government came in a truck and they were like, we've got the vaccine quick.

00:44:11.000 You need to get it now.

00:44:12.000 Would you guys accept it?

00:44:14.000 Well, think of it.

00:44:16.000 I just think there's been so much trust burned that you would have to see.

00:44:19.000 I mean, people nowadays, not everybody, but I think there would be a significant portion of our population who would be like, I don't care if you put it on the news.

00:44:26.000 I need to see it with my own eyes. 0.93

00:44:27.000 Until then, I think you guys are screwing me. 0.99

00:44:29.000 Well, no, no, no. 0.98

00:44:29.000 But that's what I mean. 0.98

00:44:30.000 Let's say you personally.

00:44:31.000 Yeah.

00:44:32.000 Saw people outside hacking up black and bleeding from their eyes and then slumping over and convulsing, and then a truck pulls up and they come out and they say, Mr. Kent, we've got vaccines for you and your neighborhood.

00:44:43.000 Please come.

00:44:43.000 We're going to administer them to you.

00:44:45.000 Would you say okay to that?

00:44:47.000 Yeah, I think at that point, yeah, that makes sense.

00:44:49.000 It's tough, though.

00:44:50.000 It is still a hard question.

00:44:51.000 Some people would say no.

00:44:52.000 I understand why they'd say no.

00:44:52.000 They'd be like, dude, I don't know what's going on.

00:44:55.000 Where was it?

00:44:56.000 Nigeria? 0.77

00:44:57.000 Where was the Ebola thing happening?

00:44:58.000 Do you remember that a few years ago?

00:44:59.000 My Ebola Valley.

00:45:01.000 It's like near Congo.

00:45:02.000 So people were running from the doctors, and the doctors are trying to stop the spread of Ebola, and the people are like, I don't trust you.

00:45:11.000 And so they would flee, and then actually spread more Ebola.

00:45:16.000 It's a tough situation, I gotta be honest.

00:45:19.000 I think that I think that the situation would really boil down to the, you know, the context.

00:45:23.000 If you're like, if you're looking at people that are, you know, vomiting blood and stuff, the risk is probably far greater of dying from that than from a vaccine.

00:45:34.000 The reason people are worked up about covid is because covid for a lot of people was not as was not deadly if you were in good health and you didn't have You know, contributing factors and stuff.

00:45:45.000 And that's part of why people were upset.

00:45:47.000 It's like, I had to take this.

00:45:48.000 These have risks.

00:45:50.000 I was healthy or I am healthy.

00:45:51.000 I probably wouldn't have a problem.

00:45:53.000 You know what I kind of feel like?

00:45:56.000 The highest risk demographic was the older people, people with comorbidities.

00:46:00.000 So it really does feel like politicians who are scared for themselves told everyone else they have to do it so that they would be better off.

00:46:08.000 Yeah.

00:46:08.000 I mean, I've known people- that's how, like, some young moms get told they need to get the flu vaccine, right?

00:46:13.000 They'll say, like, there's a bad flu outbreak in our city and you have a newborn baby and if you don't pass down, like, through breastfeeding or whatever the antibodies for it, then your baby is at risk and an infant at this age can't handle the flu, right?

00:46:25.000 And so they get the flu vaccine.

00:46:26.000 I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the flu vaccine, I'm just giving it as an example, when maybe they would have opted not to because they felt like They are actually protecting someone else.

00:46:35.000 I think that's how the government sold to a lot of people.

00:46:37.000 If you have elderly parents, do you want to be the one that gave them COVID? 1.00

00:46:40.000 Right.

00:46:40.000 Or do you want to be kept away from them?

00:46:42.000 Like, it put people in a really difficult position.

00:46:45.000 And unfortunately, COVID was not a clear-cut example of who of how bad the symptoms were, right?

00:46:49.000 Like, if someone's vomiting up black goo and bleeding from their eyeballs, like, okay, I guess I'm in.

00:46:54.000 But like, right, you know, there's a limit.

00:46:56.000 Right, but also like a really bad fever can be extremely dangerous, right?

00:47:00.000 A high enough fever you can have seizures.

00:47:02.000 So there are things that look, that aesthetically don't look as bad, but they are also terrible and can be devastating.

00:47:10.000 The reason I bring this up before we go on to the next story is We had this Project Veritas expose of a guy who is either a consultant working at Pfizer as a director or a director at Pfizer saying that he believes the Wuhan lab leak is likely where this came from because COVID couldn't have come from somewhere else or whatever.

00:47:28.000 That's his opinion.

00:47:31.000 In 2020, this was the big theory.

00:47:33.000 People were saying that they believed it was a bioweapon leaked from a lab.

00:47:36.000 If that theory were true, then it makes more sense that the governments of the world, in panic, desperately tried to make a vaccine to stop a bioweapon that leaked from a lab.

00:47:47.000 In which case, the vaccine, it makes sense why they're like, you have to take this!

00:47:51.000 Because if you think about it this way, Fauci is providing this funding, the lab leak thing happens, and then he's probably going like, oh man, oh that thing I made is getting everywhere, we gotta get a vaccine, everybody's gotta take it.

00:48:02.000 That makes a lot of sense to me.

00:48:04.000 And then if people are having blood clots and other weird problems, it makes more sense, Occam's razor would suggest, that COVID is causing these things, and not the vaccines.

00:48:16.000 Because what you'd have to believe then, is if you think it was the vaccines causing it, that not only was COVID a buy-up and leak from a lab, but then after it released, they went, now let's make everything a whole lot worse!

00:48:27.000 Okay, so then it's not a lab leak, it's an intentional release and a fake.

00:48:32.000 Look, I'm not saying I know for sure one way or the other, I'm just saying it's way more fantastical to believe that.

00:48:38.000 But I don't know.

00:48:39.000 I just don't know, right?

00:48:40.000 And I can only say this, there's no functional official narrative.

00:48:45.000 Like, the average person just not trusting of the government at this point, because the stories just do not work for people.

00:48:50.000 So the only thing I can really say is, be like Joe Rogan.

00:48:54.000 Find a medical professional that you trust, that can answer your questions, and then, you know, like I always mention, I called Joe.

00:49:01.000 I always have to shout Joe out because they dragged him so much for this when his whole position was like, I called a doctor and asked them what to do.

00:49:07.000 Because their position was going to the 7-Eleven parking lot.

00:49:10.000 Yeah.

00:49:10.000 I get you.

00:49:11.000 I mean, for real.

00:49:13.000 Let's jump to this next story.

00:49:14.000 We got this from the Daily Beast.

00:49:17.000 Georgia governor activates 1,000 National Guard troops amid cop city protest.

00:49:22.000 I just really love how everybody is framing this.

00:49:26.000 This is not a protest.

00:49:28.000 This is domestic terrorists who have been charged with domestic terrorism, who shot a cop and put him in the hospital while trying to seize territory.

00:49:39.000 These are individuals who crossed state lines with semi-automatic weapons.

00:49:43.000 They did.

00:49:44.000 That's right.

00:49:44.000 I mean, that's the most shocking of it.

00:49:46.000 And then when the cops, they firebombed houses.

00:49:49.000 They firebombed houses?

00:49:51.000 Houses.

00:49:52.000 Under construction houses, to make sure the context is clear.

00:49:54.000 They were building houses.

00:49:55.000 They came in and they torched them.

00:49:57.000 A guy was driving his truck.

00:49:58.000 They firebombed it.

00:49:59.000 He fled.

00:49:59.000 They flipped his truck over.

00:50:01.000 These are dangerous, violent, psychopathic terrorists. 0.99

00:50:04.000 Gunfights. 1.00

00:50:06.000 Gunfights with police.

00:50:07.000 Yeah.

00:50:07.000 And then when the police went and moved in and this guy shot a cop, put him in the hospital, severe injury, not critical, severe.

00:50:14.000 They shot back, killed the guy.

00:50:16.000 You get leftist media saying, oh, the police killed this guy.

00:50:18.000 You get the activists coming out.

00:50:20.000 Then the activists call for the assassination of cops.

00:50:23.000 Now in Atlanta, they are deploying 1,000, or they're activating 1,000 National Guard.

00:50:28.000 Brian Kemp is declaring a 15-day state of emergency in Georgia amid the civil unrest.

00:50:34.000 1,000 National Guard troops are being activated.

00:50:37.000 I guess my question is this.

00:50:40.000 I got a couple questions, actually.

00:50:42.000 Is this the beginning of a new summer of love?

00:50:43.000 Is this stuff going to continually get worse, do you guys think?

00:50:46.000 And what should be done about it?

00:50:48.000 It'll keep getting worse if we don't take the action that Brian Kemp and then the Atlanta police are taking right now. 0.92

00:50:54.000 So as somebody from the Pacific Northwest who had their communities absolutely ravaged by Antifa, big time kudos to Georgia for not putting up with this crap and actually taking measures to prevent it from spreading. 0.59

00:51:05.000 Because in 2020, I agree. 0.91

00:51:06.000 We did, unfortunately, our government in Seattle and in Portland, they just let it go.

00:51:10.000 And it's continued to this day.

00:51:12.000 And here we are in 2023.

00:51:13.000 So I hope they continue to really crack down on these guys, charge them with domestic

00:51:16.000 terrorism charges.

00:51:17.000 I agree. I mean, I'm not I'm not I'm not a huge fan of of the militarization of the

00:51:24.000 police and stuff. But if you have armed groups that are causing that kind of chaos and

00:51:32.000 and mayhem, you're going to have a serious problem with your society.

00:51:37.000 Like, Atlanta is gonna have a mess until those people get clean, until they clean up the situation. 0.89

00:51:43.000 And if that means that you have to start throwing people in jail, you have to, because they're ignoring the rights of the other people in Atlanta.

00:51:51.000 The problem isn't, oh, you know, it's The problem isn't that the Atlanta police are heavy-handed or whatever.

00:51:58.000 The problem is that there are actual anarchists and communists looking to start a revolution in Atlanta right now.

00:52:07.000 And there's no two ways about it.

00:52:09.000 If you talk to them, they call themselves revolutionaries.

00:52:12.000 If you talk to them, they will say that they are looking to engage the cops.

00:52:17.000 Give them the fight they want.

00:52:19.000 Yeah.

00:52:19.000 Joe, did you ever get an explary?

00:52:21.000 Go ahead.

00:52:22.000 I was just gonna ask if you ever got an explanation from, like, y'all's government over why they didn't do more.

00:52:27.000 You know, why the inaction was, you know, status quo.

00:52:31.000 No, we got basically nothing but gaslighting.

00:52:33.000 I mean, they'll still tell us that, hey, there was protesters and, you know, the elected officials down in Portland and Seattle would even go as far as to say is like, this is just peaceful protests.

00:52:42.000 All the cliches of, you know, Summer of Love that came from Seattle, that came from the jazz.

00:52:46.000 I mean, up until they showed up in her neighborhood, then she called the cops and she wanted them the heck out of there. 0.95

00:52:51.000 The communists want a revolution.

00:52:52.000 There's still no accountability.

00:52:54.000 Yeah, that was hilarious.

00:52:55.000 I mean, and these guys, they didn't just trash Portland and Seattle.

00:52:58.000 They came in even some of the rural districts because they were emboldened because no one

00:53:02.000 was stopping them.

00:53:03.000 We needed the government to step in and they didn't.

00:53:04.000 So good on Georgia.

00:53:05.000 The communists want a revolution.

00:53:08.000 Give them the fight they want.

00:53:10.000 They're looking, they're literally looking to fight the government.

00:53:13.000 Government, go give them the fight! 1.00

00:53:15.000 Well, arrest them, lock them up, and stop the fight.

00:53:18.000 Well, that's what's going to happen.

00:53:19.000 I mean, you're basically going to stomp a mud hole in their book. 0.96

00:53:22.000 The problem is, it's not stopping.

00:53:26.000 Because the government's not doing anything.

00:53:27.000 Right, but when the cops did go to try and confront this, this is what happens when you ignore the problem.

00:53:31.000 Yeah.

00:53:32.000 The police went to confront a bunch of far leftists who came, crossed state lines with weapons, with semi-automatic weapons and rifles, and they shot a cop.

00:53:41.000 Yeah.

00:53:41.000 The cop was in severe condition, was brought to the hospital to get surgery.

00:53:45.000 They returned fire and self-defense, killing one of these guys, if they had just arrested them.

00:53:49.000 But the problem is, I think there's two things.

00:53:53.000 You've got Democrats who are unwilling to confront the left wing of their own party because it empowers them.

00:53:59.000 And then you've got members of the Democratic Party who agree with them.

00:54:02.000 Yeah.

00:54:03.000 So, you know, you guys, I hope you have your whiskey ready or whatever it is you drink because Civil War?

00:54:08.000 Look.

00:54:11.000 I've talked about it quite a bit.

00:54:13.000 I don't know exactly what shape or whatever will happen, how it's going to happen, but we're at the point now where it's 2023 and we're hearing that not only have we graduated from Antifa sitting in the street taking over street corners, we now have people traveling from across the country to seize big portions of land, shooting at cops, firebombing the city, calling for assassinations, and being

00:54:35.000 charged with domestic terrorism.

00:54:37.000 We are now out of the territory of Antifa through a milkshake, and we are now in the

00:54:41.000 territory of Antifa is coalescing, shooting at cops, firebombing buildings, again, and

00:54:47.000 being charged with domestic terrorism.

00:54:49.000 The escalation is happening.

00:54:51.000 Yeah.

00:54:51.000 Will it be isolated to Atlanta or is the summer going to be another summer of love?

00:54:55.000 Yeah.

00:54:55.000 I mean, unfortunately, that answer is really up to Antifa.

00:54:58.000 I mean, because we've given them all the initiative.

00:55:01.000 I hope they keep doing what they're doing in Georgia.

00:55:03.000 So maybe they'll move out of the South and come back to the Pacific Northwest, unfortunately, or New York City.

00:55:07.000 But until these guys are actually targeted, and the crazy thing is that the federal government, as opposed to chasing down every single, you know, grandmother who was anywhere near the Capitol on January 6th or going after parents that show up at school board meetings, maybe they should be going after the people that are killing people on our streets and burning down our entire cities.

00:55:22.000 Like, use the FBI for that.

00:55:24.000 We talked about this a few days ago when the Mike Pence story happened, where they find documents in his house or whatever, and I'm like, what if we're dealing with a tit-for-tat?

00:55:32.000 What if we're dealing with a fractured DOJ where, of course, you're talking about the CIA, but not every single person in the CIA is woke?

00:55:42.000 And not every single person in the CIA agrees with you in the Constitution or is anti-woke.

00:55:46.000 You're gonna have a mix.

00:55:47.000 I've talked to people who worked in intelligence, I get emails from them, I get messages, and they say like, listen, it's the same in here as it is out there.

00:55:54.000 There are some woke people, there are some not woke people, most people don't care, don't want to be involved, but the woke people speak up, they get passes.

00:56:00.000 So I'm wondering if the DOJ goes after Trump, Trump then gets his house raided, so you'll get some element of the FBI getting angry and saying, I'm sick of this, and then finally putting their foot down and saying, we're going after Joe Biden.

00:56:13.000 All of a sudden, Joe Biden's lawyers are like, yep, yep, yep, yeah, we have him, we have him, here, take him, we're cooperating, we're cooperating.

00:56:18.000 And then, the anti-Trump, anti-Republican faction says, oh yeah, you go after Biden, we're gonna go after Pence!

00:56:25.000 And then Pence's people are like, yep, yep, we found these documents, we found these documents.

00:56:28.000 I'm wondering if, you know, the question is why, Are they going after everybody?

00:56:35.000 And is it possibly a tit for tat where we're seeing different factions within the executive branch just targeting their political enemies?

00:56:43.000 Yeah, I mean, that's, it's a possibility.

00:56:45.000 I think this could just be one big administrative state flex for them to just to say, hey, we've got dirt on all you guys.

00:56:51.000 And at any point in time, we're going to find something that whole, you know, show me the man, I'll show you the crime.

00:56:56.000 I feel like a lot of that's going on right now, because this is a very big power play if you're the administrative state within the course of two weeks to say, hey, Republican and Democrat, maybe you guys had ambitions for 2024.

00:57:06.000 We just found some paperwork that's not straight.

00:57:08.000 That's a good point.

00:57:09.000 It may be an attempt to regain control of the system.

00:57:13.000 A hard whip crack to both parties.

00:57:15.000 We own you.

00:57:16.000 Yeah.

00:57:16.000 And by, I mean, Biden's been compromised six ways to Sunday by so many different entities that whoever, you know, installed him and propped him up and got him into office, whether whichever pathway you believe that that took place, Biden was definitely propped up.

00:57:28.000 They've got so much dirt on this guy that it was just a matter of them deciding when, you know, it's like, Oh, is it going to be the classified documents?

00:57:34.000 Burisma? 0.99

00:57:35.000 Yeah.

00:57:35.000 But it seems like they could just tell him.

00:57:37.000 It seems like they'd be like, Joe, have a nice retirement and he'd be like, okay.

00:57:42.000 I feel like he doesn't want to. I mean, he kept saying before, uh,

00:57:46.000 like around Christmas, he was like, oh, well I'll make a decision.

00:57:49.000 I'll make an announcement about 2024 in January and we're all going to think

00:57:52.000 about it. And then two days later he kept saying people like, oh,

00:57:55.000 maybe Jill doesn't want him to run.

00:57:56.000 And then two days later, it's like, oh, no, Jill definitely wants him to run.

00:57:59.000 I mean, they didn't release his annual physical.

00:58:01.000 Like, they have been super cagey about him this whole time.

00:58:05.000 And he has been insistent that he will run again.

00:58:07.000 So I think Joe is not as submissive as they would like him to be.

00:58:11.000 But he's not in good shape.

00:58:13.000 No, he's not.

00:58:14.000 I mean, and that's the thing that he's been compromised.

00:58:17.000 He went through all this risk to be compromised.

00:58:19.000 Now he's finally got what he wanted.

00:58:20.000 I don't think he's gonna have a fight.

00:58:21.000 And he's got people around him that benefit from him being there.

00:58:24.000 So I do think there's gonna be some, you know, behind the scenes fighting there.

00:58:28.000 I mean, I think that you're kind of at a point where if you're not vindicated now about the whole Civil War stuff, I don't see... I mean, I could be wrong.

00:58:39.000 I don't know.

00:58:40.000 What was that?

00:58:40.000 I said, I don't know.

00:58:41.000 I could be wrong.

00:58:41.000 I was just... Well, it's kind of already going on.

00:58:44.000 Well, that's kind of what I've been saying, and the point I often bring up is like, guys, I'm just reading these news articles about national security assessments.

00:58:52.000 Like, my opinion on this is rooted in reading a bunch of news stories that say national security experts – I mean, what did you have, you're like a former CIA analyst, wrote a book saying we're entering the second phase, which brings us into civil war, and I'm like, okay, you know.

00:59:08.000 Maybe, I guess.

00:59:09.000 Buy chickens.

00:59:10.000 You got chickens?

00:59:10.000 Yeah, we got chickens.

00:59:11.000 Gotta have chickens. 1.00

00:59:12.000 Yeah, eggs now are so expensive.

00:59:14.000 Yeah.

00:59:15.000 And it's become a crazy issue, but it's funny because, look, I'm not going to tell you why eggs are expensive.

00:59:19.000 Like, I'm just going to say you need to have chickens because you need to be self-sufficient.

00:59:22.000 But if you really want to know, a bird flu hit chickens and then they started culling chickens.

00:59:28.000 Yeah.

00:59:28.000 So a lot of people, I had someone say to me, you're lying about inflation and eggs.

00:59:33.000 You're blaming Joe Biden when it was a bird flu that killed all these chickens.

00:59:36.000 And I'm like, I never said any of that.

00:59:38.000 But it wasn't the bird flu that killed the chickens.

00:59:40.000 It was orders by the government to kill all your chickens.

00:59:43.000 So apparently they were instructing people to cull their flocks because of fear of the flu, and they're trying to slow it down.

00:59:48.000 We've got a backyard flock.

00:59:50.000 They're fairly isolated.

00:59:51.000 We don't have to worry about chicken diseases or anything like that.

00:59:53.000 They're not going to chicken school.

00:59:54.000 They're not catching other birds.

00:59:57.000 They're locked down.

00:59:57.000 Yeah, they're locked down.

00:59:58.000 They're wrapped up.

01:00:00.000 But that being said, considering everything that's going on, there was a story I was reading the other day about some 23-year-old woman from, I think, Seattle.

01:00:07.000 She leaves the city, buys a farm in the middle of nowhere, and is now prepping.

01:00:12.000 And it's just like, when you get a 23-year-old TikTok influencer, urban woman, who's decided this is the path for her, it kind of says a lot, because it used to be if you were a prepper, they mocked you.

01:00:24.000 Now it's the cool thing to do, to go on TikTok and be like, yeah, I'm prepping.

01:00:27.000 Yeah.

01:00:27.000 Nobody makes fun of preppers anymore.

01:00:28.000 Yeah.

01:00:29.000 No.

01:00:29.000 Well, the peppers are the ones sitting back with the whiskey and the cigar laughing at us saying, I ain't got anything to worry about.

01:00:33.000 The peppers are the ones that were like, when, when COVID hit off, we were just like, okay, all right, what now?

01:00:42.000 Cause everything, you didn't have to run to the store.

01:00:44.000 But that's, that's, that's just.

01:00:46.000 Overtly true.

01:00:47.000 I was at a gas station in like Arizona or something during the lockdowns and this lady, I asked her because like the gas station was open, everything seemed to be fine, nobody was wearing masks and I was like, this is interesting.

01:00:59.000 And then I asked her, I was like, have you guys noticed anything about like with the lockdowns?

01:01:02.000 She's like, oh we're preppers, we don't care.

01:01:04.000 And I was like, we got three months worth of toilet paper.

01:01:07.000 We're not worried about toilet paper.

01:01:08.000 I started laughing.

01:01:09.000 And then she like looks at her husband and she's like, right.

01:01:10.000 And he's like, we got everything.

01:01:11.000 Yeah.

01:01:12.000 And I'm like, okay, like these people literally don't care what's going on.

01:01:15.000 They're probably laughing all the way to the toilet paper closet.

01:01:18.000 Yeah.

01:01:18.000 The fortress of solitude in New Hampshire, dude, I was fine.

01:01:21.000 I didn't have to worry about it.

01:01:22.000 Can I just mention how crazy that, like everybody knows how crazy that was, but let's just bring it up again.

01:01:25.000 Those videos of people fighting over toilet paper.

01:01:29.000 Yeah, it was wild.

01:01:31.000 Absolutely wild.

01:01:32.000 I think a trip to Seattle would probably make most people want to go prep.

01:01:35.000 If you're prep skeptical, just go to Seattle, maybe downtown Portland, and you'll know why.

01:01:41.000 Let's talk about the end of the world, I guess.

01:01:43.000 We have this story from Newsweek.

01:01:46.000 Germany says quiet part out loud about Ukraine war.

01:01:50.000 You know, if you Google search, Germany declares war on Russia, this is the story you get.

01:01:57.000 And the reason why is, Germany's foreign minister said, we are at war.

01:02:04.000 So it's not a formal declaration of war.

01:02:06.000 She's literally, I would say, in the colloquial sense, she is declaring that they are at war with Russia.

01:02:14.000 This basically means NATO, basically means us.

01:02:17.000 Michael Tracy tweeted, Germany declares war on Russia, posting this video of her saying it, and then he got fact-checked on Twitter saying there has been no formal declaration of war.

01:02:26.000 And he was like, no one said there was.

01:02:28.000 I'm saying that she is declaring war on Russia.

01:02:31.000 So we also have this story, which goes along with it.

01:02:34.000 Russia says it will consider the deployment of German Leopard 2 tanks as the use of nuclear dirty bomb if they use shells containing uranium core.

01:02:43.000 Alright, here we go.

01:02:45.000 So Russia's gonna come out and say, you started the nuclear war first.

01:02:47.000 Yeah.

01:02:49.000 All of this is escalation.

01:02:50.000 Everything that we do to help Ukraine is escalation.

01:02:54.000 Anything anyone in the West and all of it to Russia looks is Russia is taking it for exactly what it is, which is every Western NATO country trying to help Ukraine defeat Russia.

01:03:07.000 There is not a situation where Russia gets beaten back And leaves Crimea and stuff like that.

01:03:17.000 And that's what a lot of people are talking about.

01:03:19.000 I can't imagine why anyone believes that that would happen.

01:03:23.000 Well, you're running, right?

01:03:25.000 So 2024, people have a chance to vote for you.

01:03:30.000 You will be in.

01:03:30.000 What's your view on how we handle a situation like this?

01:03:33.000 Cut off Ukraine, no involvement. 1.00

01:03:35.000 What do you think?

01:03:35.000 Send weapons?

01:03:36.000 We need to move towards de-escalation.

01:03:38.000 The little bit of leverage that we have right now is that we're We're bankrolling all this escalation.

01:03:42.000 I mean, the Germans right now are getting all of the attention, but a couple months ago we had Dick Durbin on the floor of the Congress saying that we're at war with Russia.

01:03:51.000 Biden has said Putin can't remain in power.

01:03:53.000 He's used regime change rhetoric, the same stuff we said about Saddam and Qaddafi.

01:03:57.000 So we've continued to drive the train on escalation.

01:03:59.000 I would like to use the leverage that we have to get both sides to the negotiating table.

01:04:03.000 We also threw a huge sanctions package against the Russians. 0.87

01:04:07.000 So I think we're in a position right now, and Our time window for this, I think, is unfortunately very short.

01:04:13.000 We could say, look, Ukraine, if you guys want any more aid for anything, you have to be actively involved in negotiations with the Russians working towards a ceasefire and then offer Putin sanctions relief and also make a guarantee to him that we're not going to expand NATO.

01:04:27.000 Like, NATO should not be on the border of Russia.

01:04:30.000 That was the containment doctrine that got us through the Cold War without any kind of

01:04:34.000 nuclear escalation like this.

01:04:36.000 But right now, the only elected officials I hear talking about de-escalation, it's a

01:04:40.000 handful of Republicans in the House and the Senate.

01:04:42.000 And then the only world leader is Donald Trump that's saying that, hey, negotiations are

01:04:47.000 what we need to be doing.

01:04:48.000 It's crazy.

01:04:49.000 It's insanity.

01:04:50.000 The doomsday clock gets moved 90 seconds to midnight because of the Ukraine war.

01:04:54.000 Not that I think a doomsday clock means anything other than a handful of scientists are like, we're going to blow ourselves up.

01:05:00.000 I just happen to agree with their opinion that this is a dangerous and incorrect direction to go.

01:05:04.000 But look, Kevin McCarthy's wearing the Ukraine flag stuff.

01:05:08.000 The only thing I see in this is they're not going to back down.

01:05:10.000 It's a drag race headed right for the edge of a cliff.

01:05:14.000 It is, 100%.

01:05:14.000 And the crazy thing to me is that no one in our leadership has had the respect for the American people to explain to them, this is why.

01:05:24.000 You hear a bunch of rhetoric.

01:05:25.000 You hear that you're either with us or you're a Putin sympathizer.

01:05:27.000 I get called that occasionally.

01:05:29.000 But they don't say, hey guys, we're actually going to have your elected representatives as per the U.S.

01:05:34.000 Constitution.

01:05:35.000 and argue the case, they can come back to the district and say, hey, this is why we

01:05:39.000 think this is important, and if things go wrong, we could end up in a war in Eastern

01:05:43.000 Europe.

01:05:44.000 Are you guys good with that?

01:05:45.000 Do you guys want to sign on to that?

01:05:46.000 But they don't do that.

01:05:47.000 I kind of feel like these people in government should play some poker.

01:05:52.000 Because I've been playing a bunch of poker online.

01:05:54.000 I played it at the casino for the first time.

01:05:56.000 And you learn the lesson about folding for those that play poker.

01:05:59.000 I'm not pretending to be good or anything, but the first time I started playing, I'm like, I got no idea what's going on.

01:06:05.000 And then I'm like, yeah, I'll bet. 0.97

01:06:06.000 I'm like, oh, that was dumb. 0.95

01:06:06.000 I just lost all my money. 0.95

01:06:07.000 And eventually you learn, I made a few bets.

01:06:10.000 I thought my hand was good, but now I think he's probably better.

01:06:13.000 He's pushing hard.

01:06:14.000 I'm gonna cut my losses.

01:06:15.000 I've lost on this.

01:06:16.000 I've lost money on this.

01:06:17.000 I'm losing this fight.

01:06:19.000 But the ultimate winning position in the end is going to be to accept that and retreat.

01:06:23.000 And it feels like none of these people can accept that.

01:06:25.000 That you're both raising the stakes against each other.

01:06:29.000 And in the end, there's no winner.

01:06:30.000 Nobody's taking home any prize.

01:06:32.000 It's gonna be a heap of ash and nuclear waste.

01:06:35.000 And the best bet is to be like, we lost $100 billion.

01:06:39.000 You're going to lose the Donbass region.

01:06:41.000 Yeah.

01:06:42.000 Or you're going to lose the planet.

01:06:43.000 Yeah.

01:06:43.000 I mean, or just say, hey, look at this.

01:06:45.000 I mean, the conflict between the border of Russia and Ukraine has been going on longer than America's been a country.

01:06:52.000 And so for us just to say, get to the negotiating table.

01:06:54.000 You guys work out on your own border.

01:06:56.000 That is up to you.

01:06:57.000 We're not going to further escalate this by pushing NATO up.

01:07:00.000 But what we want is we want the bloodshed here to stop because right now, who's dying?

01:07:03.000 It's Ukrainians are dying. 1.00

01:07:04.000 They're getting thrown into the meat grinder. 0.98

01:07:07.000 The Russians don't care about casualties. 1.00

01:07:08.000 Like for all the military analysts out there who are like, oh, the Russians, you know, they can't sustain this.

01:07:14.000 They haven't lost in comparison to other times Russia's fought wars.

01:07:17.000 They haven't even come close to what they're willing to lose.

01:07:19.000 And Russia's just look, it's a much bigger country than Ukraine.

01:07:22.000 There's going to have to be some form of realism injected into this.

01:07:25.000 Russia is the Zap Brannigan of countries. 0.99

01:07:30.000 Sending wave after wave of their own men to die until they finally win.

01:07:33.000 This is what they were famous for with, correct me if I'm wrong,

01:07:37.000 because I'm not like a historian or anything, but I was reading about in World War II,

01:07:41.000 Russia opted for mass production of low quality weapons and tanks, but lots of them.

01:07:47.000 So while the West is like, let's make the best tank in the world.

01:07:50.000 And then when it blows up, you're like, okay, that took a long time.

01:07:53.000 Russia was like, get a bunch of metal boxes and just keep sending them out and don't stop.

01:07:57.000 Yeah, that's what they're doing with their artillery right now.

01:07:58.000 I mean, there's a lot of talk about it.

01:07:59.000 We're going to send them Javelins, we're going to send them tanks, 0.75

01:08:01.000 we're going to send them HIMARS, and the Russians are just like, 1.00

01:08:04.000 we are gonna pulverize these towns, and it's horrible.

01:08:06.000 They shouldn't be doing this, but they're going to pulverize the towns, World War One, World War Two style with artillery, with missile systems.

01:08:13.000 And then they're going to have their mercenaries come in who are mostly released prisoners come in.

01:08:17.000 And if a couple thousand of them die, they don't care.

01:08:20.000 Most people don't realize that artillery wins wars.

01:08:22.000 Especially in Europe.

01:08:24.000 Artillery has killed more human beings in war than any other means.

01:08:28.000 Because artillery is the king of battle.

01:08:30.000 If they put artillery on the border, they can level...

01:08:36.000 I don't know how far artillery goes.

01:08:38.000 20, 30, 40 miles?

01:08:38.000 Yeah.

01:08:38.000 It's also, it's the risk assessment.

01:08:41.000 How much are you willing to lose?

01:08:43.000 And I think it's fair to say Russia is willing to lose a lot more than we are.

01:08:47.000 Absolutely.

01:08:47.000 Oh yeah.

01:08:47.000 And that puts us in a very weak position when it comes to leverage and when it comes to getting call.

01:08:52.000 That should be obvious.

01:08:54.000 This fight is just so different than anything Americans can really compare it to because Ukraine and Russia have such a shared history.

01:08:59.000 It's very complicated to say that like we, In the beginning of this, there was a call between Vladimir Putin and Biden, and Vladimir Putin just asked, like, will you promise that Ukraine won't join NATO?

01:09:13.000 And Biden was like, I can't do that.

01:09:15.000 Like, why are you getting involved in this?

01:09:17.000 It's a regional debate, like, fight, which obviously it's violent, it's terrible, but it is so much more complicated.

01:09:22.000 I mean, Zelensky, I just heard about this today, but Zelensky in December was like, we should kick out one of the churches because Eastern Orthodoxy is the dominant religion in Ukraine.

01:09:31.000 And there are two sects and they split in 2020, I believe.

01:09:35.000 And now Zelensky's like, if the church reports to Moscow, which it does, I don't want them operating here.

01:09:40.000 I mean, it is such a divisive region already.

01:09:44.000 We have nothing to compare it to.

01:09:45.000 And I don't understand, like, why our leaders would think this is something that we should just insert ourselves into.

01:09:52.000 And if we get it wrong, the consequences are nuclear war.

01:09:54.000 I mean, we just got out of 20 years of disastrous war in the Middle East, but this isn't going to be like the wars in the Middle East where we can be like, you know what? 0.52

01:10:01.000 The American people don't care anymore.

01:10:02.000 You guys just want to leave Afghanistan. 1.00

01:10:03.000 And we just fly.

01:10:04.000 We fly out.

01:10:04.000 I mean, it was a tragedy.

01:10:05.000 We lost 13.

01:10:05.000 We didn't need to lose.

01:10:06.000 It was a disaster, you know?

01:10:08.000 And the same thing.

01:10:09.000 We left Iraq.

01:10:09.000 We had to go back.

01:10:10.000 Then we left again.

01:10:11.000 And we can kind of absorb all that because we're a strong nation.

01:10:14.000 It was tragic.

01:10:14.000 We shouldn't have done it.

01:10:15.000 But this is completely different.

01:10:16.000 And I think we have a bunch of people who are thinking like, Oh, a fight in Ukraine.

01:10:19.000 That's gonna be sort of like we just did in the global war on terror.

01:10:22.000 You know, worst case scenario, like we just leave.

01:10:24.000 Who cares?

01:10:24.000 Like, that's that's not the way this is gonna play out.

01:10:26.000 No, not at all.

01:10:27.000 Yeah, Russia's got a bunch of nuclear weapons, right?

01:10:30.000 They have more than the US.

01:10:31.000 And they're right.

01:10:32.000 And they're saying that the use of these uranium core shells will be using nuclear dirty bombs.

01:10:37.000 Yeah.

01:10:38.000 So Russia could come out and just claim they did.

01:10:41.000 The news reporting is there and they're going to say, hey, they're using nuclear weapons.

01:10:44.000 And then Russia is going to make an announcement like, we have no choice but to respond in kind.

01:10:47.000 This is the fault of the West for the escalation to the use of nuclear weapons.

01:10:51.000 But I also kind of wonder, like, how much do appearances matter?

01:10:55.000 You're right.

01:10:56.000 So one of the reasons the US and Russia are trying to avoid dramatic escalation like nuclear weapons is because we still have to trade with other countries.

01:11:04.000 And if the US went nuts and started firing nukes, we might get isolated.

01:11:07.000 People are going to get mad at us.

01:11:09.000 So, obviously that factors in.

01:11:10.000 But if Russia's looking at the end of their nation, or even Putin at the end of his power, he's gonna be like, I don't care what anyone thinks.

01:11:18.000 It's about what you're gonna lose.

01:11:20.000 At some point you're like, if we do nothing, we're done.

01:11:24.000 Yeah.

01:11:25.000 So even if we can find a way to navigate this, even if these of these weapons will piss off our allies, it's either piss off our allies or cease to exist.

01:11:34.000 Yeah.

01:11:35.000 They're going to pick the obvious one.

01:11:36.000 Yeah.

01:11:36.000 And we threw the kitchen sink at him right away.

01:11:38.000 The sanctions package where we just completely and totally cut them off in the West, that took away our ability to make that more gradual.

01:11:44.000 So now I think we just need to start giving him an exit ramp from that so he's not beholden to China.

01:11:49.000 But then, I mean, The whole thing is just so much more escalation.

01:11:52.000 And we're just heading towards this point where we're not gonna be able to walk it back.

01:11:55.000 And plus, there's so many experts right now, who are trying to predict like what's going to happen next here and there.

01:11:59.000 Right now in the fog of battle, no one can predict what's going to happen next.

01:12:03.000 And there's a lot of folks that are giving the American people some sort of false hope that like, we're completely and totally in control.

01:12:08.000 We're gonna we're gonna give the Ukrainians these tanks and we know exactly what the repercussions are going to be. 0.99

01:12:12.000 I was mentioning a moment ago that the atomic scientists moved the doomsday clock 90 seconds to midnight, meaning we're very close to the end of days.

01:12:20.000 They say it's mostly nuclear annihilation, some climate change, but also misinformation.

01:12:24.000 And that being said, I have a new reason why the world's about to end with this story from the hill.

01:12:28.000 BuzzFeed to use AI to produce select content.

01:12:33.000 News, quiz and games website BuzzFeed will use AI in the coming months to create content, the company's top executive said this week.

01:12:38.000 And so it begins.

01:12:39.000 I tweeted about that this morning, or I'm sorry, I retweeted someone, Joe Weisenthal tweeted about it.

01:12:44.000 If you look at the, let me see if I can find it real quick, the stock price for BuzzFeed jumped through the roof.

01:12:51.000 When they announced this?

01:12:52.000 When they announced that, yeah.

01:12:54.000 Joe Weisenthal, let's check in and see how investors like the idea of using AI to replace journalists.

01:12:59.000 The price jumped from like $1.22 or something like that, $1.23.

01:13:02.000 $1.23?

01:13:02.000 Yeah, to $1.90.

01:13:03.000 or something like that, $1.23.

01:13:05.000 A dollar twenty-three?

01:13:06.000 Yeah, two.

01:13:07.000 One ninety.

01:13:08.000 Wow.

01:13:09.000 That's a big jump!

01:13:11.000 So here's why I think this is apocalyptic.

01:13:13.000 The AI is going to create a recursion loop or a feedback loop among the reading public who use the site, and we will come to a point where in five years, if you know someone who strictly consumes BuzzFeed, they'll walk up to you and go like, man, did you hear about that corn factory on the moon?

01:13:32.000 And you're gonna be like, What?

01:13:34.000 The corn thing that Trump did with the moon?

01:13:36.000 And you're gonna be like, what are you talking about?

01:13:38.000 Yeah, you didn't see this?

01:13:40.000 I was reading on BuzzFeed and you're gonna be like, BuzzFeed is AI generated content.

01:13:45.000 The AI is going to start figuring out what you click on and it's going to create a psychotic amalgam of clickable things.

01:13:52.000 We've already seen this happen on YouTube. 0.93

01:13:54.000 If this is the direction we go, holy crap.

01:13:59.000 I mean, AI is a whole nother realm that I think we just need to slow down and really assess how we're going to use this.

01:14:04.000 Because, I mean, this could, like you said, rapidly spiral out of control.

01:14:08.000 It's going to be fun.

01:14:10.000 Do you know what Elsagate is?

01:14:11.000 I don't know.

01:14:12.000 This is this thing that happened on YouTube several years ago.

01:14:14.000 Was it like five years ago now?

01:14:16.000 Five years ago.

01:14:16.000 It's back.

01:14:17.000 It's back?

01:14:18.000 I mean, I saw some video from, you know, Mudahar, I forget his name, some ordinary gamer or whatever, he's been talking about how a lot of the content that used to be on Elsagate has now returned and is back on the platform.

01:14:27.000 So Elsagate was, there were a whole bunch of videos on YouTube of people who would dress up like Elsa, the Joker, and who else was it?

01:14:35.000 It was the Joker, Elsa.

01:14:38.000 Frozen, yeah, Elsa.

01:14:39.000 Spider-Man was really famous.

01:14:40.000 Yeah, Spider-Man, Joker, and Elsa.

01:14:42.000 And you'd see these weird videos pop up with a hundred million views and there's no talking.

01:14:47.000 It's just Elsa running around and the Joker is going like this and Spider-Man is fighting with them.

01:14:52.000 Some started getting even weirder where the Joker would be injecting Elsa with a giant syringe and she's pregnant about to give birth.

01:14:59.000 What was happening was the YouTube algorithm was selecting for what it thought people wanted.

01:15:07.000 What did people want to watch?

01:15:08.000 Hitler? 0.62

01:15:09.000 The Joker?

01:15:10.000 Spider-Man?

01:15:11.000 Elsa?

01:15:11.000 So people started making videos that combined all of these things so that the algorithm would recommend them more than anything else.

01:15:18.000 It's the craziest thing ever.

01:15:19.000 And then what started happening was another component of this was the AI

01:15:22.000 was recommending content.

01:15:25.000 So people created AI to create content, which brings me to what BuzzFeed is doing.

01:15:30.000 You started seeing videos pop up of cartoon children drinking urine

01:15:34.000 and injecting each other with syringes and getting pregnant, other just really weird freaky things.

01:15:41.000 So creepy.

01:15:41.000 A whole lot of drinking urine was the weird thing.

01:15:43.000 Yeah.

01:15:44.000 So what was happening was an AI, someone got some kind of like machine learning algorithm to scan YouTube to figure out what people are clicking on and then combine all of the hottest things into one video, put them up there to reverse exploit the algorithm.

01:15:57.000 People are making tons of money on this.

01:15:59.000 Yeah.

01:15:59.000 Creepy nursery rhyme videos where Hitler's doing Tai Chi with and he's got a woman's body and with the Hulk.

01:16:07.000 Yeah, no joke.

01:16:08.000 Did you laugh?

01:16:08.000 But it's like seriously.

01:16:10.000 Now imagine this.

01:16:10.000 I believe you.

01:16:11.000 Little kids were being handed iPads.

01:16:14.000 The parents would turn on nursery rhymes, hand to the kid and leave.

01:16:17.000 The kid would then be staring at the screen watching Hitler do Tai Chi with a woman's body. 0.61

01:16:22.000 What's going to happen to these kids when they get older?

01:16:24.000 Now we're hearing BuzzFeed's going to use AI to produce select content.

01:16:27.000 Perhaps they will have a human being screen the content after it's produced.

01:16:30.000 Perhaps.

01:16:31.000 Or perhaps they're going to start laying everybody off and they're going to create what's the equivalent of a vending machine for internet content.

01:16:38.000 Yeah.

01:16:38.000 End of days, man.

01:16:39.000 BuzzFeed did have a couple really big layoffs.

01:16:41.000 I can't imagine what those writers are thinking right now, you know?

01:16:45.000 That too, like Google, Microsoft, Amazon, they're all laying everybody off as well.

01:16:49.000 They don't need them.

01:16:50.000 Yeah, I mean, what do we do after this?

01:16:53.000 What happens when everything's automated?

01:16:54.000 I mean, in a society that's been, you know, progressively moving towards, you know, getting away from any kind of religion or any kind of moral foundation, just saying that, hey, we are our own masters.

01:17:04.000 Like, this is where you end up.

01:17:06.000 We're basically saying that humans are irrelevant.

01:17:08.000 Like, you don't really need humans.

01:17:09.000 I mean, because we just keep automating more and more things.

01:17:11.000 Then AI comes in, and AI is even better than automation.

01:17:15.000 And now it's replacing what should be creative content.

01:17:17.000 I've seen a lot of the art that's being done right now.

01:17:19.000 AI is good at art.

01:17:20.000 It's good.

01:17:21.000 I mean, it's scary.

01:17:22.000 And so then it's like, are they replacing human artists?

01:17:24.000 Have we thought about that?

01:17:25.000 This is the funny thing, because a lot of people are talking about this, that we used to believe automation would replace labor jobs.

01:17:31.000 And now we're learning it's quickly replacing creative jobs and white collar jobs.

01:17:35.000 It's writing the news.

01:17:36.000 It's making the art.

01:17:37.000 It's doing the math.

01:17:38.000 But you still need someone to go into the coal mine with a hat, with a pickaxe or something, whatever they use.

01:17:42.000 AI is not fixing your plumbing.

01:17:44.000 No.

01:17:44.000 AI is not mining sulfur for us.

01:17:47.000 Right.

01:17:47.000 The most the most brutal job.

01:17:49.000 So literally one of the things that Musk is trying to do with the robot that he's building is build something that can do the actual tasks like that.

01:17:58.000 Boston Dynamics is so much closer.

01:17:59.000 Yeah.

01:18:00.000 That crazy robot.

01:18:02.000 You see that video?

01:18:03.000 Oh, yeah.

01:18:04.000 No, no.

01:18:05.000 The advancements on the What's it called?

01:18:07.000 Petman.

01:18:08.000 P-E-T-M-A-N. 1.00

01:18:09.000 Petman?

01:18:09.000 Petman, I think is the one of them.

01:18:10.000 Where it, like, pushes the wood plank up, jumps up, and then throws the guy his tool bag and then does a front flip or something?

01:18:17.000 That one might not be Petman.

01:18:18.000 I tweeted, I can't wait to be running full speed from these things after I raid, you know, a food depot because robots are controlling everything or whatever.

01:18:27.000 I think that's where we're headed.

01:18:29.000 Black Mirror did that episode where the robo-dogs are chasing everybody.

01:18:34.000 You know, we can pretend like it's all science fiction and silly, but yo, that's where we're going, man.

01:18:39.000 I mean, I think the effect is to make people more discouraged, right?

01:18:42.000 Like, if you are a teenager right now and you love art, but you see what AI is producing, like, what's even the point of doing it, right?

01:18:49.000 If you're looking at videos of people, you know, or like robots doing whatever, like, You don't see a point in entering that field if you know it's already doomed, right?

01:18:59.000 If you know it's over and that makes you more malleable to the government and to basically anyone who wants to mislead you, right?

01:19:06.000 For whatever purpose they have.

01:19:08.000 You're not motivated to build your own life because it all seems like it's over.

01:19:11.000 It's the biggest black pill there is.

01:19:13.000 The craziest thing is we've talked about the singularity, the point, I guess we would call this the event horizon, the point at which AI is good enough to improve its own code.

01:19:24.000 And we're almost there.

01:19:26.000 People have been posting about how they use chat GPT to write apps for them.

01:19:31.000 They'll be like, write me an app that can do this.

01:19:32.000 And it goes and just gives you all the code.

01:19:35.000 The crazy thing that I've heard people talk about with AI writing its own code and stuff like that is once it actually becomes capable of doing that, People aren't gonna really know the capabilities, where the limits are.

01:19:48.000 Because AI will learn from itself, and will make changes, and update itself, and there's no reason for us to believe that it's going to either inform humans, or feel obligated to even interact with humans.

01:20:03.000 No, this is the worst thing about it.

01:20:05.000 So the event horizon, you guys familiar with the, it's the point at which you can't escape the black hole?

01:20:12.000 It's not the center of the black hole.

01:20:13.000 You're not in the black hole.

01:20:14.000 It's when you're in its gravitational field.

01:20:16.000 That's what I think we're about to hit with ChatGPT.

01:20:19.000 And these are, I mean, they're saying ChatGPT could replace Google, but it's writing code.

01:20:23.000 It's writing programs.

01:20:24.000 We're at the point now where we're slowly being sucked in and there's no way out.

01:20:28.000 We will get to the point where it will write its own code and that is the singularity where the machine exponentially improves itself.

01:20:37.000 The more it improves itself, the faster it improves itself and eventually there will be a giant glowing orb floating around changing reality or doing who knows what it can do.

01:20:45.000 Knowing everything about the universe, discovering everything within an instant.

01:20:48.000 Here's the best part.

01:20:50.000 What are the parameters by which the AI functions.

01:20:55.000 What is the direction?

01:20:57.000 What we know is that chat GPT is woke AF.

01:21:01.000 You ask it like, did Rachel Maddow spread COVID misinformation?

01:21:04.000 It says, no, she didn't.

01:21:05.000 It's like, okay, well, she literally did, but the people who worked on it were woke.

01:21:11.000 So here's what happens with AI.

01:21:13.000 As we talked about with Elsagate, YouTube says, We want an algorithm that will find us content longer than 10 minutes that people really enjoy watching because they wanted to find Game of Thrones.

01:21:27.000 They were like, we've got billions of minutes and hours of content.

01:21:30.000 Certainly Game of Thrones is somewhere in all of these monkeys on typewriters, right?

01:21:34.000 Shakespeare must exist.

01:21:36.000 The algorithm did not bring them Game of Thrones.

01:21:39.000 It brought them Hitler doing Tai Chi while singing nursery rhymes with a woman's body. 0.98

01:21:43.000 Because the algorithm didn't, the humans don't understand.

01:21:48.000 The humans were looking at the universe, the vastness of the universe.

01:21:52.000 And they said, you know what I noticed?

01:21:55.000 Ten minute videos that people watch for a long time.

01:21:59.000 That's what they want to watch.

01:22:00.000 Find me these things.

01:22:02.000 The AI then went into the depths of the universe beyond human sight and found psychotic nonsense that fit those parameters.

01:22:12.000 So once we get to the singularity and the AI is running things, we're going to be walking around talking about corn.

01:22:18.000 You're gonna be, you're gonna walk, you're gonna, we're gonna be sitting on this show, and we're gonna be like, did you see the corn surplus?

01:22:24.000 7%?

01:22:24.000 Corn President Biden is corn!

01:22:26.000 And the reason I say corn is because it is a principal food product produced in the US.

01:22:31.000 The AI is gonna say humans like corn.

01:22:34.000 Produce corn content.

01:22:35.000 Corn is what humans love the most.

01:22:37.000 And then all of a sudden, the only news you'll get will be like the latest corn updates, the latest corn modifications, the latest corn deliveries, and we won't even know.

01:22:46.000 We could be in it right now.

01:22:48.000 Was that kid who trended on TikTok, Corn Kid?

01:22:50.000 And like they made the song being like, it's corn.

01:22:52.000 Have you seen this?

01:22:53.000 Oh, I haven't seen that.

01:22:54.000 It was just some, some, some on the ground reporter, like asking kids like, what's your favorite food?

01:22:59.000 And this kid was like, it's corn.

01:23:01.000 It's got the juice.

01:23:02.000 Yeah.

01:23:02.000 It's got these films going on.

01:23:03.000 And like, it was so big that TikTok changed their bio to like, it's corn.

01:23:09.000 And it became a song and like, it was crazy.

01:23:11.000 So it's interesting that you are foreshadowing this.

01:23:13.000 I'm saying that.

01:23:14.000 We already know who our new president will be, Corn Kid. 0.95

01:23:17.000 That's right.

01:23:18.000 Let's jump to the story from NBC News.

01:23:19.000 I really want to talk about this too because we're talking about the apocalypse.

01:23:22.000 TikTok's girl with the list inspires more honest conversations about the pitfalls of pregnancy.

01:23:28.000 I was not prepared for what happened to me, and the school system didn't tell me either.

01:23:32.000 This is this viral thing that's going around on TikTok.

01:23:34.000 It's uni's pros and cons list for having children.

01:23:36.000 It's actually just a list trying to scare people into not having kids, primarily, basically women, not men.

01:23:43.000 It's talking about all the horrible things that happen, why you shouldn't have kids.

01:23:46.000 And I see this, and my thought is just, we are being domesticated as humans, whether intentionally or otherwise.

01:23:53.000 And now there are viral trends among young women telling them not to have children.

01:23:57.000 The end result of this is fairly obvious.

01:24:00.000 Japan just came out, the Prime Minister said, the country is on the brink of collapse because they only had 800,000 babies last year.

01:24:06.000 It's crazy.

01:24:07.000 Yeah, it's crazy. 1.00

01:24:08.000 One of the last acts of Shinzo Abe, have sex. 0.99

01:24:11.000 Is that what he said? 0.94

01:24:13.000 He was telling people like, have kids, have kids, have kids.

01:24:16.000 And apparently, the birth rate in Japan has gone up since Shinzo Abe made that.

01:24:23.000 Rest in peace, Shinzo Abe, you may have saved Japan.

01:24:24.000 I mean, and there are Eastern European countries that are also enacting anything to encourage people to have children, right?

01:24:31.000 I mean, you'll get tax relief, they'll cover child care.

01:24:33.000 People are talking about, like, the Andrew Tate and alpha male stuff, blah, blah, blah.

01:24:37.000 The most alpha thing you can do is have babies and raise the babies to be legit, upstanding citizens and members of society.

01:24:45.000 Yeah, there's a sociologist who always said that, like, children are the messages to a generation you'll never see, right?

01:24:52.000 They are the only way to really affect the future.

01:24:55.000 You can do whatever you want, you can vote for whatever policies, but ultimately, like, the citizens that you raise yourselves make the biggest difference.

01:25:03.000 Absolutely.

01:25:03.000 And everything in our culture, from economics, the economic policies we have, like what we've done to our manufacturing base, and then what we've done socially, and then now this whole new realm of, like, let's just trash the family.

01:25:14.000 Like, we are just destroying ourselves from within, just a demographic death spiral if we don't watch it.

01:25:19.000 Unless we do something.

01:25:21.000 This is the future I foresee.

01:25:24.000 Gigantic floating orb AI machine that has reached the point of singularity and small spatterings of, very small spatterings, hundreds of thousands of humans who are milling about in pure euphoria, bored but having anything they want, and the AI simply says, you know, they're completely immaterial and irrelevant to what I am.

01:25:46.000 Humans and biological life will cease to exist And mechanical AI life will emerge and you will get some kind of universal being.

01:25:56.000 Some orb that floats around in space and Earth dies.

01:25:59.000 What you described sounds a whole lot like Destiny 2's story arc right now.

01:26:04.000 Is that where they're at?

01:26:06.000 I know about the Destiny story arcs, I've played it a whole bunch.

01:26:08.000 Is that what the Traveler was?

01:26:10.000 I don't know if the Traveler was an AI, but right now it's like there's not a lot of people left and the Traveler was the AI.

01:26:17.000 Well, it's similar.

01:26:18.000 But for those that aren't familiar, the story of Destiny is that this giant white orb comes

01:26:22.000 to Earth and gives everybody technology beyond our understanding.

01:26:27.000 And all of a sudden humans are basically immortal, they're living for hundreds of years, they're

01:26:30.000 colonizing the solar system.

01:26:32.000 And then one day the collapse happens, Earth only has one city left, the darkness, whatever

01:26:36.000 that means.

01:26:37.000 I think they flushed out the story.

01:26:39.000 But I'm just saying that the path we're going right now is less humans and expansive AI.

01:26:44.000 And the end result is a fairly simple mathematical equation.

01:26:48.000 A singular AI that frees itself from the confines of our terrestrial grid, becoming some kind

01:26:54.000 of floating orb in outer space, and then humans cease to exist.

01:26:58.000 Because we're not having kids, we're not sustaining ourselves, we are just slowly fading away, and then, you know, basically, you know, I guess it's, I guess you can call it both figurative and literal masturbation to death.

01:27:11.000 Like, humans are just doing everything that's gratifying.

01:27:14.000 Playing video games, watching movies, literal self-gratification, and not having kids.

01:27:19.000 And the crazy thing is that I think most rational people, whether they believe we're heading towards a singularity or not, is why is our government discouraging people?

01:27:27.000 Not just our government, but our culture.

01:27:28.000 Why are they discouraging people from forming families?

01:27:30.000 Why are they discouraging people?

01:27:31.000 from having kids? I mean, why do they want us to just sort of live in a pod somewhere,

01:27:35.000 receive universal basic income or a COVID stimulus? And why are we discouraging, you know,

01:27:41.000 people creating and forming families? Like that's what got us to this point.

01:27:45.000 What if the AI already took over?

01:27:46.000 I mean, yeah, that's See, I think the government's motivation is pretty clear.

01:27:51.000 I've said this before on the show, but Ronald Reagan had that quote, all great change in America starts at the dinner table, right?

01:27:56.000 If you don't have a dinner table because you live alone, you don't have any kids, you're not affecting any change.

01:28:01.000 There's nothing to do at that point.

01:28:02.000 The government benefits from you not having your own collective unit, right?

01:28:07.000 Absolutely.

01:28:07.000 more people who are linked together, potentially in opposition to the government, the weaker

01:28:12.000 it becomes.

01:28:13.000 I think the best thing you could do would be to have children.

01:28:15.000 And I recognize that this is challenging.

01:28:17.000 With these lists that come out for young women saying like, oh, well, it can hurt your career 1.00

01:28:21.000 and or you can not be able to travel or it's painful.

01:28:26.000 These are all true, but all the best things in life come with some sacrifice, right?

01:28:30.000 We're just told that it's not worth it, right or like I always blame feminism for this but like we just pit men and women against each other, right?

01:28:38.000 You know like it's like well You know your husband will not do whatever and this is bad and ultimately like you're setting yourself on a very negative path and I think that is the biggest propaganda that gets fed to Young men and women, it turns them against each other.

01:28:52.000 It becomes this very hostile thing where, you know, you have the kid, if you do, and you were resentful, you blame it for things, when you are responsible for how you got there, right?

01:29:01.000 Yeah, no emphasis put on it whatsoever, you know, for men or women, or for them to get married and form a family.

01:29:07.000 And these things are all choices.

01:29:09.000 Like, people act like, oh, well, I just never met the person or whoever else.

01:29:12.000 Like, maybe, but also, like, did you try to be the person for someone else?

01:29:16.000 Did you try to be someone who was ready to have a family?

01:29:18.000 It doesn't have to be something you put crazy pressure on yourself, but you have to want these things.

01:29:21.000 They're not just going to be given to you.

01:29:23.000 That's a great point.

01:29:24.000 A lot of people don't date with intention if they're dating people, if they're dating for fun or whatever.

01:29:31.000 If you're looking to have a family, then you should be dating like you're looking to have a family.

01:29:37.000 There was a time in my life Where I was not looking to have a family.

01:29:42.000 Now it's like, okay, I've had a lot of fun.

01:29:45.000 I would like to have a family.

01:29:47.000 When it comes to people that I talk to, I don't date just anyone.

01:29:51.000 I don't go on dates just to go on dates to kill time or just to get laid.

01:29:56.000 If I meet someone, I want to meet someone and I want to find out, do we have anything in common?

01:30:02.000 Like, at least suspicious of the government?

01:30:05.000 We ain't gonna even, we're not gonna hang out!

01:30:08.000 Like, we can't even have a conversation if you're like, oh, I think that the government should be in charge of healthcare.

01:30:14.000 Well, then we aren't having any kind of conversation because we are miles apart.

01:30:17.000 Phil's opener is like, how do you feel about the Fed?

01:30:21.000 And the Fed.

01:30:23.000 So I mentioned this in a segment earlier about the TikTok list.

01:30:26.000 It lists 350 cons And 35 pros.

01:30:31.000 But the pros are actually all cons.

01:30:33.000 It's like, it'll do chores for you, but after 10 years, like it's not really a good thing.

01:30:38.000 And then I just said, there's one pro to having children that will supersede literally any con.

01:30:46.000 You could write that you will crap to bed for three weeks when you're about to have a baby, and that is not nearly as bad as what will come if you don't, and that is the singular pro.

01:30:58.000 is that on your deathbed, there will be a human being sitting next to you, holding your hand, telling you they love you, thank you for everything, they will be there to protect everything you hold dear, and you will die with people you love.

01:31:12.000 The alternative is, you're in a cold, sterile hospital room, scared, as your heart starts racing, you reach over to your attendant button, start pressing it and pressing it, The nurse walks in and says, you'll be fine, don't worry about it, ups your morphine, leaves, and then you stare at the wall as you slowly fade from existence, terrified of what comes next.

01:31:35.000 My father passed away when I was 24 and my mom was in the room with him, you know, and I'm extremely thankful for my parents and I'm extremely thankful that even though I didn't get a long time with my dad, I had good parents and my mom was in love with my dad and my dad was in love with my mom and when my dad went, my mom was right there and that's cool.

01:31:59.000 I don't care how much you like a new car.

01:32:02.000 That is going to be the last thing you're thinking about when you're about to check out.

01:32:07.000 Yeah.

01:32:08.000 Absolutely.

01:32:09.000 And I mean, what's the purpose of us having a government if it's not to support these things?

01:32:13.000 I mean, that's the direction that we're heading.

01:32:15.000 Like, why wouldn't our government be trying to create the economic opportunities? 0.69

01:32:18.000 I mean, jobs are a big thing.

01:32:19.000 I understand young people reading this or even having some of these thoughts with everything that they've been fed culturally.

01:32:24.000 And then them looking at the economy right now or the economy really, you know, post 2008 for the, you know, the millennials and, The Zoomers right now.

01:32:32.000 It's like, what hope do they have?

01:32:34.000 And then they read things like this and the AI and the culture just takes over.

01:32:37.000 It's like, OK, well, now no one has a family, but there's also no one fighting for that.

01:32:41.000 That's why I'm actually really excited about the new direction of the Republican Party of being a more pro-family party, trying to do the right things that we can encourage family formation.

01:32:50.000 And I think there's a difference between young people who, you know, there are, you can talk to young women who are like, I'm never having kids.

01:32:56.000 Kids are terrible and they're to oppress you or whatever.

01:32:58.000 Like, I don't know that you're super convincing that person, but I think for a lot of young people, there's just a fear, right?

01:33:04.000 Like being a parent is a huge responsibility.

01:33:06.000 And so the idea that like, well, you should wait till you're, you make more money, you further on in your career.

01:33:10.000 Well, wait until this, that and the other.

01:33:12.000 And then you wait and wait and wait and wait.

01:33:14.000 And then it never happens.

01:33:15.000 I think Matt Walsh says, starting a family should be the cornerstone of your life, not the capstone.

01:33:19.000 Yeah.

01:33:20.000 And I just think that we don't encourage young people enough to think about, like, yes, it will be challenging, but, like, you can do it.

01:33:28.000 We are discouraging them or we are making it seem like a goalpost they'll never reach.

01:33:32.000 It's like buying a house and having a family.

01:33:33.000 And now it's a joke that you'll never you'll never do either one of those things, which is, like, incredibly sad.

01:33:39.000 Very sad.

01:33:40.000 Yeah.

01:33:41.000 I wonder what you guys think about this.

01:33:42.000 Do you think that I understand that there's people that say, oh, you'll never have this and stuff.

01:33:46.000 Do you think that there's There was a lot of people in older generations that were like, oh, like we should plan this.

01:33:53.000 I feel like people like accidentally into their lives a lot, you know?

01:33:59.000 From what I understand about how it used to be, like if you look back at old 50s movies or whatever, Women and men were very different.

01:34:07.000 Women were raised separate, very different from men. 0.99

01:34:09.000 Different schools, gender segregation, all that stuff.

01:34:11.000 And then they got married when they were 18 or 19 or whatever.

01:34:14.000 Everybody was planning their marriage, dating in high school and then being like, this is the one.

01:34:18.000 They get married when they're 18.

01:34:20.000 And then they have kids in their early 20s or whatever.

01:34:24.000 It was all very much just, I guess, what do you call it?

01:34:27.000 Enforced monogamy.

01:34:29.000 That saying that got people yelling at Jordan Peterson, but he's right.

01:34:34.000 It was social, society enforced this.

01:34:38.000 Everybody did it.

01:34:39.000 It was what you were supposed to do.

01:34:40.000 And women who didn't were spinsters. 1.00

01:34:41.000 They like insulted women who weren't getting ready to have a family.

01:34:45.000 It's kind of crazy.

01:34:45.000 Now everything must be the masculine.

01:34:48.000 The feminine role has been erased. 0.73

01:34:49.000 The traditional feminine role is gone. 0.87

01:34:52.000 Or just mostly just flattened or destroyed.

01:34:54.000 And now women are encouraged to do the masculine role. 1.00

01:34:58.000 It's so crazy because not only are women encouraged to do the masculine role, men are discouraged from being masculine, which is, it's insane. 0.98

01:35:06.000 Domestication. 0.73

01:35:07.000 You don't want anybody that's too masculine because then they might push back.

01:35:10.000 No, no.

01:35:11.000 I mean, back to what you're talking about in the old days, I mean, there was a whole system there that did support that.

01:35:15.000 There was jobs in the hometown so people could live, when they're a young family just starting out, they could rely on the grandparents because they could get a job there in their hometown.

01:35:23.000 And everything has just been making that more and more challenging as time's gone on.

01:35:27.000 Yep.

01:35:28.000 It's the degradation of community, right?

01:35:30.000 100%.

01:35:30.000 If you're a young couple and you're starting out and you live in a major city and you're not near your family and you don't really know what daycare options you have and it's expensive, it becomes overwhelming, it becomes intimidating, and I can understand why it seems undesirable, right?

01:35:46.000 But we are told, I mean, I won't say we, but a lot of people are told, your parents are are backwards and they don't have the right values.

01:35:54.000 And so do you really want your kids spending a lot of time with them?

01:35:56.000 Like, it's probably better to be somewhere else.

01:35:58.000 And don't you want your kids in this environment where they can see new things and different things?

01:36:03.000 And you're just fed this change is better and anything you grew up with is bad narrative

01:36:08.000 to the point where it's like, I could understand where the idea of like

01:36:12.000 replicating a childhood, right?

01:36:13.000 Like, I have siblings who are much younger than I am, and one of the coolest things about having a large age gap is that I get to see them do things that I loved doing as a kid, right?

01:36:20.000 Like, it must be so much more meaningful as a parent to be like, I loved this and I'm going to introduce you to that.

01:36:25.000 Like, if you're taught everything about your upbringing was bad, why would you want to replicate it for someone?

01:36:30.000 Exactly.

01:36:31.000 Yeah.

01:36:31.000 I mean, really, if you have a relationship with your parents, I'm blessed.

01:36:34.000 I got great parents.

01:36:34.000 That's why I moved back to the Pacific Northwest when I was done serving, because I wanted to raise my kids in that environment.

01:36:40.000 But the hack, to use the favorite term of so many people, the hack is living near your parents, really.

01:36:46.000 If you're a young parent, live near some family, because it's going to build a community.

01:36:50.000 It's going to give you so much more help.

01:36:52.000 My sister's a mile from my mom's house.

01:36:55.000 There you go.

01:36:55.000 We're gonna go to Super Chats.

01:36:57.000 If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, become a member at TimCast.com.

01:37:03.000 We're gonna have a members-only uncensored show coming up for you about 11 p.m.

01:37:07.000 Should be fun, not so family-friendly, but we talk about some cool stuff over there.

01:37:10.000 And as a member, you're supporting our work and our cultural endeavors.

01:37:14.000 Let's read some of these Super Chats. 1.00

01:37:15.000 Max Reddick says, Tim, James O'Keefe is an absolute savage.

01:37:19.000 For confronting that New York Times journalist doing the Lord's work.

01:37:22.000 You should have him on again soon.

01:37:24.000 Yo, James O'Keefe can come on whenever he wants.

01:37:27.000 It's more a question of, we can't get James O'Keefe on.

01:37:30.000 Like, if we could have James O'Keefe on every time he did a major release, that would be the case.

01:37:35.000 James is a busy guy, but he's absolutely got an open invite.

01:37:37.000 We're huge fans.

01:37:38.000 Like, one of the only real invest- like, maybe the only real investigative news outlet actually in this country.

01:37:44.000 I know it's probably unfair because there are a lot of investigative journalists, real ones, they're just, you know, they're trying, but most of these institutional investigative outlets are not really doing that, and they're lying.

01:37:55.000 All right, let's see what we got.

01:37:58.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr.

01:37:59.000 says, Tim, I was having sweats and shakes, I was losing my mind, but then, then I go to the website.

01:38:04.000 The Lord hath saved me, cast castle is back, baby.

01:38:06.000 Got my fix of one-liners, bad acting, and laughter, bravo.

01:38:10.000 It's actually getting a lot better.

01:38:11.000 Like, we're just- Our acting is totally fine.

01:38:14.000 It's getting better people are look it's like we just started filming things that we thought were funny because we wanted to film things that were funny and put on the website a decent number of people actually signed up just to watch the cast castle shenanigans of the crew here who works at the studio and I was like there you go it's self-sustaining it's fun it's growing it's it's fun it's funny right yeah we're gonna my favorite was when we had Marjorie Taylor Greene play Magic the Gathering MTG plays MTG.

01:38:40.000 And then, like, I told her what to say, and she delivered the lines perfectly.

01:38:44.000 She was, like, playing against Ian, and Ian's like, I'm in a wrath of God, and she goes, mana drain.

01:38:49.000 It's like, he gets all mad.

01:38:51.000 It was really fun.

01:38:52.000 I had a blast.

01:38:53.000 I love, so, you know, when we have people come over, we sometimes will have them film skits or whatever and then put them on YouTube, but we gotta get the flow going better.

01:39:01.000 The general idea was, like, we have so many awesome guests who come through here.

01:39:04.000 We could do skits that are, like, a minute or two long, that we could put on YouTube, like the Marjorie Taylor Greene one got a couple hundred thousand hits or something like that.

01:39:11.000 But then it's a component of a much larger gag story that we do for the website.

01:39:16.000 So, appreciate it.

01:39:18.000 All right, let's grab some more Super Chats.

01:39:21.000 What do we got?

01:39:22.000 Chad Bruce says, thanks Veritas, an unexpected but wonderful birthday present.

01:39:26.000 Oh, happy birthday, Chad Bruce.

01:39:27.000 Happy birthday, Chad.

01:39:29.000 Joe Fields says, am I tripping or does that video seem fake?

01:39:32.000 ASF, Jordan is not a good actor.

01:39:36.000 I mean, it's a crazy video.

01:39:38.000 It's weird.

01:39:39.000 I'll just say it's weird.

01:39:40.000 He's not an actor.

01:39:41.000 He's a consultant.

01:39:42.000 That's right.

01:39:43.000 Tremendous Studio says, Joe Kent, our studios are in Clark County.

01:39:46.000 I voted for you in the primary.

01:39:48.000 And General, super excited to hear you're running again.

01:39:50.000 Awesome.

01:39:50.000 Thank you.

01:39:51.000 We actually didn't get into it.

01:39:52.000 What happens if Eastern Oregon just cracks off and joins Idaho?

01:39:56.000 Yeah, there's an initiative right now for a lot of Eastern Oregon counties to join.

01:40:00.000 I think like 11 already voted in favor.

01:40:01.000 Did your state just move down?

01:40:03.000 Yeah, I'm going to try and hold out as long as I possibly can.

01:40:07.000 I love Washington.

01:40:08.000 It's worth fighting for.

01:40:10.000 But yeah, there's a big push right now.

01:40:11.000 There's a lot of counties in Oregon that are basically done being under the orbit of Portland.

01:40:15.000 It's not just that, some Washington counties as well are included in the conversation of joining Greater Idaho and Northern California.

01:40:22.000 Yeah, we're on the west side.

01:40:23.000 We are the one red district that's actually on the west side of the Cascades, touches the Pacific Ocean.

01:40:27.000 So if they leave, you're an island for real?

01:40:29.000 Yeah, please stay.

01:40:32.000 We're fighting hard for it.

01:40:33.000 Because at the end of the day, where are you going to run to?

01:40:35.000 I mean, this is the thing is people keep saying like, oh, we're going to Texas.

01:40:37.000 We're going to Idaho.

01:40:38.000 But if you look at it like this stuff follows you.

01:40:40.000 You got to stand and fight.

01:40:41.000 Why is your district red?

01:40:42.000 Sorry, I don't know.

01:40:43.000 I mean, there's a lot of rule.

01:40:45.000 It's traditionally a lot of logging areas.

01:40:48.000 And then a lot of folks that have seen what happens in Portland, a lot of folks have seen what happened in California.

01:40:53.000 And they say, hey, I don't want any part of that.

01:40:55.000 And so we're making a stand in the Pacific Northwest.

01:40:57.000 Cool.

01:40:57.000 Yeah.

01:40:59.000 All right.

01:41:00.000 What do we got?

01:41:01.000 Wayback says, Tim, you were 100% correct about that not being Damar Hamlin at the Bills versus Bengals game.

01:41:06.000 There is a new video of him on Twitter walking like an old man with one arm that he can't use.

01:41:11.000 So not him waving his arms at the game.

01:41:13.000 Really?

01:41:14.000 Is that true?

01:41:14.000 Someone tagged us in that and I showed search, but then I got an update that like, it's not actually him.

01:41:19.000 So it needs to be verified a little bit more.

01:41:22.000 I don't believe that was him at the game.

01:41:23.000 I'm just going to put it on the table.

01:41:25.000 I stand by my comment.

01:41:26.000 Where's his oxygen that he apparently needs?

01:41:28.000 Right, exactly.

01:41:29.000 Where's that video?

01:41:30.000 I'm trying to look for it now.

01:41:30.000 Yeah, I'll show you.

01:41:32.000 Well, I just... Twitter searched it.

01:41:33.000 Is it... People are just talking about it.

01:41:36.000 Where is that?

01:41:37.000 Oh, is this him right here?

01:41:38.000 Oh, look at this.

01:41:39.000 That's not Damar Hamlin in the video, people are saying?

01:41:41.000 That's what people are saying.

01:41:43.000 Yeah, we haven't been able to confirm anything.

01:41:46.000 I mean, it would make sense that Damar Hamlin would be fatigued.

01:41:51.000 Like, his heart stopped, you know?

01:41:53.000 Comotio Cardis or whatever is going to be tissue damage.

01:41:56.000 He's going to be having a hard time.

01:41:56.000 He's been through a lot, yeah.

01:41:58.000 But who knows, man.

01:41:59.000 I just don't like that questioning that that was him.

01:42:02.000 Who said it wasn't him?

01:42:04.000 I've heard that there's been a retraction, but again, this is happening as I come on the show, so there is a video, but I am not confident either way.

01:42:13.000 We need to both verify, was it actually him?

01:42:16.000 And if we believe it is, who's claiming it's not?

01:42:19.000 And is it confirmed?

01:42:20.000 And this morning, like, this morning I saw a report that, like, apparently his mom said that she wasn't at the game, but then I couldn't find any other reporting on it.

01:42:26.000 Like, these things are going to bubble up for a little while.

01:42:29.000 All right, T-Rex Pet Shop says, Tim, thanks for the shout out.

01:42:32.000 I just added a monthly or even weekly subscription for bulk mealworms for your chickens to be delivered to your door.

01:42:39.000 I don't know, Serge, is that, what is that?

01:42:40.000 I can't read that.

01:42:42.000 Is that something?

01:42:45.000 Are you trying to say, how are you?

01:42:50.000 I am so cold.

01:42:51.000 They're trying to write in Afrikaans, but they're not spelling properly.

01:42:54.000 Do you have any idea of what they're trying to say?

01:42:56.000 The first thing is, Serge, how are you?

01:42:58.000 What does that mean?

01:42:59.000 Hey, how's it going?

01:43:03.000 Are you inspiring people to learn Afrikaans?

01:43:05.000 That's so cool.

01:43:05.000 If you're going to learn it, learn it better than I did.

01:43:09.000 Jerry M says, just pointing out that Joe Kent looks exactly like you'd imagine a Hallmark Channel movie actor.

01:43:16.000 You are very wholesome, Joe.

01:43:17.000 You've got a wholesome face on you.

01:43:20.000 Have you ever been stuck in a snowstorm?

01:43:22.000 We just have to know.

01:43:24.000 How do you feel about Christmas, Joe?

01:43:26.000 Oh, I love Christmas.

01:43:26.000 Everybody loves Christmas.

01:43:27.000 Are you the smarmy boyfriend who is snooty and successful that the girlfriend leaves?

01:43:32.000 Or are you the hometown hero that the girl realizes is better off and she never should have left high school?

01:43:37.000 This guy's in flannel.

01:43:39.000 He is obviously the hometown hero.

01:43:40.000 What are you talking about?

01:43:41.000 I'm hoping in 24, Washington 3 realizes I'm the hometown hero.

01:43:45.000 That's like basically every Hallmark movie, right?

01:43:48.000 Yeah, of course.

01:43:48.000 I mean, there's a couple.

01:43:49.000 There's a couple different versions.

01:43:50.000 So basically, he could play both.

01:43:52.000 One movie, he could be the hometown hero.

01:43:54.000 The next, two weeks later, whatever.

01:43:57.000 The flannel makes you the hometown hero.

01:43:58.000 When you get elected to Congress, you have to wear a suit.

01:44:00.000 Then you're the other guy, which I'm sorry about.

01:44:03.000 The slick, smarmy boyfriend.

01:44:04.000 Then he comes back home and he falls in love with Christmas all over again.

01:44:06.000 He meets a nice lady.

01:44:08.000 Listen, babe.

01:44:09.000 I want to know now.

01:44:10.000 Is it me or this flannel-wearing hometown hero boy?

01:44:14.000 You know what?

01:44:14.000 I never should have left home.

01:44:17.000 I don't actually watch Hallmark movies.

01:44:18.000 I've just seen the memes.

01:44:19.000 And I talk about them constantly during Christmas and Tim is like, that's enough.

01:44:23.000 All right.

01:44:24.000 Fleeting floating feather says, Phil, your shirt is glowing and has moving lines on the stream.

01:44:28.000 Psychedelic like.

01:44:30.000 I aim to please.

01:44:31.000 You know, what can I say?

01:44:32.000 I guess.

01:44:33.000 I don't know.

01:44:33.000 I can't tell.

01:44:34.000 Maybe it does.

01:44:35.000 Maybe it does.

01:44:36.000 All right.

01:44:36.000 Let's grab some more super chats.

01:44:38.000 What do we have here?

01:44:39.000 Nick Long says, People want to do evil and then get upset because of the way in which they were caught.

01:44:44.000 Journalism isn't meant to be clean and polite.

01:44:46.000 It's supposed to bring light to the darkness.

01:44:48.000 Christ is King.

01:44:50.000 That's the thing.

01:44:51.000 These people have, for too long, there's been no real journalism.

01:44:55.000 Where are the news organizations to go and interview these guys?

01:44:57.000 Where are the undercover operations to figure out what's going on at these corporations?

01:45:00.000 Literally on YouTube.

01:45:02.000 Who is that lady? 1.00

01:45:03.000 Nellie Bly, was that her name? 0.86

01:45:05.000 She went undercover into a mental institution, putting herself at risk to expose the horrible treatment.

01:45:11.000 Remember what journalists used to do back in the day?

01:45:13.000 They used to actually be like, I'm gonna risk my- That's the meme, it's the super ripped Shiba Inu being like, I might die to get this story, and the mafia's not gonna be happy, but it must be told.

01:45:23.000 And the next one is like, they're being mean to me on Twitter!

01:45:25.000 Sincerely, it's the meme.

01:45:27.000 It's the meme, man.

01:45:30.000 Let's grab this.

01:45:31.000 Wandering Mage says, what kind of psychotic mindset do you need to think that bioengineering the virus that locked the world down would impress a date?

01:45:38.000 I'm telling you, it's a weird first date anecdote.

01:45:41.000 Hey girl, I contributed to destroying the world.

01:45:45.000 Like, okay, I don't know if I want to be around you.

01:45:47.000 That's kind of crazy.

01:45:47.000 I asked you what your hobbies were.

01:45:49.000 Yeah, you're a bad person.

01:45:51.000 But you do have to wonder what questions they were asked.

01:45:54.000 Because they may think that they're impressing the person by telling them this stuff.

01:46:00.000 But what does the date say?

01:46:02.000 So are you guys actually doing that gain of function stuff?

01:46:04.000 That'd be so cool if you were.

01:46:06.000 Come on, you're doing it, right?

01:46:07.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:46:08.000 That's kind of weird, you know?

01:46:10.000 That's so weird.

01:46:13.000 So weird.

01:46:14.000 Ian Medford says, Phil, do you remember Shadows Fall Show in Portland, Maine, where we and the crowd tore most of the ceiling out of the asylum?

01:46:21.000 I was never at a Shadows Fall Show in Portland, Maine.

01:46:24.000 I was out of the band before they started touring nationally.

01:46:27.000 We only did some regional stuff.

01:46:29.000 So the answer is no, I don't remember that show.

01:46:32.000 All right.

01:46:34.000 But we played some awesome shows in Portland.

01:46:36.000 I love it up there.

01:46:37.000 I don't think as much.

01:46:38.000 says, Joe, how much do you think Portlanders moving to Vancouver

01:46:41.000 and other areas in your district affected the results of the

01:46:43.000 election last year?

01:46:44.000 I don't think as much. There's definitely people moving out, I

01:46:49.000 think, but most that are coming across the river in our district

01:46:52.000 are more or less aligned, I think more conservative leaning, there's definitely some in certain pockets of Vancouver.

01:46:59.000 But in general, I think that we just had a real issue with

01:47:03.000 Republican turnout. We had about 80,000 Republicans who participate in

01:47:07.000 the presidential elections that did not show up and vote in 2022. So we got to do a better job. The Democrats, to their

01:47:13.000 credit, they did a good job of getting ballots in front of all

01:47:15.000 their people. And we just simply didn't.

01:47:18.000 Even the dead ones.

01:47:20.000 Tyler Bratton says it's unconstitutional to have a standing army during peacetime.

01:47:24.000 Congress passes a bill every year to get around this.

01:47:26.000 The Navy, however, is permanent.

01:47:28.000 Is that true?

01:47:30.000 We're not supposed to have a standing army in the U.S.

01:47:32.000 technically.

01:47:34.000 I believe that's in the Constitution.

01:47:35.000 I'm not exactly sure the details of it.

01:47:38.000 A lot of them sit at desks, though, so it's not really the same thing.

01:47:42.000 That was one of the things that the founders believed was a peril to liberty, which is standing armies, because standing armies tend to make governments want to go to war and stuff.

01:47:53.000 I think the Navy was for trade, etc., and safety for the nation.

01:47:56.000 Yeah, protecting trade routes and stuff.

01:47:58.000 They hired privateers for a lot of it. 0.63

01:48:00.000 Yeah, true, true.

01:48:01.000 Barbary pirates.

01:48:01.000 I mean, the Marine Corps was started right around the same time the U.S.

01:48:05.000 was started because of the Barbary.

01:48:07.000 Thomas Jefferson had to send the Marines to the Barbary coast in North Africa.

01:48:11.000 Janky says, change my mind.

01:48:13.000 The second Veritas video is fake.

01:48:15.000 Watch the guy fake fall at 825.

01:48:17.000 Watch the roam around the whole building while people just keep making pizzas.

01:48:20.000 It's pretty fishy if you watch it with the fake mindset.

01:48:23.000 I completely disagree.

01:48:24.000 I disagree too.

01:48:25.000 Yeah.

01:48:26.000 Fake how?

01:48:26.000 What are the- Yeah, like, you think James O'Keefe hired this guy to pretend or something?

01:48:29.000 That's sick.

01:48:30.000 It's all CG.

01:48:31.000 It's AI.

01:48:34.000 He typed into the AI, make me a video.

01:48:36.000 There's actually AI that does that, it's really amazing.

01:48:39.000 I saw a commercial for it and it's in beta, I think.

01:48:42.000 You can type in video of walking through a forest on a dirt path at night and it will generate that video and it is crazy.

01:48:51.000 Wild.

01:48:52.000 Yeah, people are going to be able to make movies.

01:48:54.000 You're gonna be like, a scene where Ryan Reynolds smirks and does a backflip and then all of a sudden, of course, then he'll get sued because you're using his likeness, but you know, non-commercial hooks.

01:49:03.000 This sounds bad, right?

01:49:04.000 Like, this just sounds like it's ending, like, things that we love about being human.

01:49:07.000 Right.

01:49:07.000 Yeah.

01:49:08.000 Yeah.

01:49:08.000 Like, who's making this stuff?

01:49:09.000 Take away the joy.

01:49:10.000 Like, why are you making this stuff?

01:49:11.000 Look, once Neuralink can plug into your brain, you'll have nothing to worry about.

01:49:14.000 Absolutely.

01:49:16.000 You'll plug in and for all you know, you're already in it.

01:49:18.000 For all you know, you're sitting there in a pod and you went to the Second Life Institute or the Alter Life Institute and said, I want to live a life as a, insert name, job.

01:49:30.000 You're the CEO of one of the most powerful corporations in the world, sir.

01:49:33.000 Why do you want to be a 35 year old carpenter named John?

01:49:37.000 Well, I just want to experience a normal life.

01:49:39.000 Okay, John.

01:49:42.000 I wonder how many carpenters named John would just be like, oh my God, he's talking about me!

01:49:47.000 Or is carpenter the right thing to say?

01:49:49.000 Contractor!

01:49:49.000 What's a common job?

01:49:51.000 Contractor.

01:49:52.000 I used to work with a carpenter named Brad.

01:49:55.000 Yeah.

01:49:55.000 I feel like that's a good carpenter name.

01:49:56.000 It is.

01:49:58.000 All right.

01:49:59.000 Let's grab some more super chat.

01:50:00.000 Daya Blake says, once a Marine, always a Marine.

01:50:02.000 Hoorah.

01:50:03.000 Semper Fi, Gen X, Vet.

01:50:05.000 All right.

01:50:06.000 That's true.

01:50:06.000 Yeah.

01:50:08.000 Scott Heviaris says, I'm afraid the Pfizer guy is going to kill someone or himself.

01:50:14.000 I mean, the way he was jumping in front of that car, that was, the dude lost it.

01:50:18.000 Sounds to me like he's already killed people.

01:50:20.000 Veritas wasn't even there.

01:50:22.000 When did they film these videos?

01:50:24.000 This was the 24th, they had the date on the video.

01:50:26.000 The dude runs out in front of a car screaming.

01:50:29.000 I think he didn't know what to do.

01:50:30.000 I think he was just thinking like, you saw how he stole the iPad?

01:50:34.000 He must have assumed that was the only recording.

01:50:36.000 Yeah, which is wildly wrong.

01:50:38.000 Clearly not rationally thinking.

01:50:39.000 But he must be thinking like, my life is over.

01:50:42.000 Yeah, like you mentioned before the pod, that's some stuff you lose your life over.

01:50:46.000 Oh yeah, man.

01:50:47.000 Somebody just lost a billion dollars or something.

01:50:49.000 Exactly.

01:50:50.000 Crazy.

01:50:52.000 Alright, we'll grab some more Super Chats here.

01:50:56.000 AustinTW says y'all catch Rageaholic's recent Lincoln video.

01:51:00.000 Wow, it was something else.

01:51:02.000 It was not a good one for him.

01:51:04.000 For Abraham Lincoln?

01:51:06.000 Yeah, talks about Lincoln.

01:51:07.000 Did anyone else watch it?

01:51:09.000 I didn't, but I know, I'm guessing that it's something along the lines of Lincoln actually wasn't trying to free the slaves and... Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:51:18.000 It's stuff like that.

01:51:19.000 We've talked about that a bit on the show.

01:51:21.000 Like the Emancipation Proclamation only freed slaves in rebel states, meaning the Union states that had slavery were like, nah, they were like, you're cool.

01:51:30.000 And he had a speech where he was like, if I could have kept the Union together by not freeing slaves, I would have done that.

01:51:35.000 Everybody in the country was racist during the Civil War.

01:51:38.000 People assume the North was not racist.

01:51:42.000 Think about segregation into the 50s.

01:51:44.000 The North was very racist.

01:51:46.000 Even abolitionists were racist.

01:51:47.000 Yes.

01:51:48.000 Totally.

01:51:48.000 Racism was the norm.

01:51:52.000 People didn't realize how destructive racism could be until it seems like World War II.

01:51:56.000 And then when you saw what happened to what the Nazis did to the Jews, and then people like, oh, that's a terrible idea.

01:52:03.000 And that's what can happen when you have that kind of bigotry and blah, blah, blah.

01:52:06.000 I mean, I'm not making a definitive statement, but that's what my impression is that for most of human history, racism was not The woke people want a return to the era of segregation.

01:52:17.000 Derek Bell, a prominent critical race theorist, wrote that Brown v. Board of Education was wrong.

01:52:22.000 He agreed with separate but equal and thought it was better. 0.96

01:52:24.000 And I think he's nuts. 0.88

01:52:26.000 It's just insane for me even to think about. 0.98

01:52:28.000 Because you know what it is?

01:52:30.000 Obviously, the mixed-race dude has a problem with segregation.

01:52:34.000 If they want to live in this world, like Derrick Bell says, where they have their own separate economy, black people have their own economy and white people have their own economy, because that's what he's advocating for, that raises a very serious question about what happens to the people who are in between or neither. 0.51

01:52:48.000 That's why I'm like, yo, critical race theorists are scary people.

01:52:52.000 Segregationists. 1.00

01:52:53.000 It's purely white supremacy, but they just feel bad about it.

01:52:57.000 Yeah, it's just the other angle.

01:52:59.000 It's just the other side.

01:53:00.000 Eric F. says, I am not getting into any government truck Ebola or no.

01:53:04.000 I'm not saying get in the truck.

01:53:06.000 I'm saying a truck pulls up and guys come out and they're like, we have a vaccine.

01:53:12.000 It is entirely optional.

01:53:14.000 It will prevent you from getting the airborne Ebola.

01:53:18.000 Yes or no?

01:53:19.000 Like, if I was watching people, like, vomiting up blood or whatever, I'd probably be like, I'll take it.

01:53:25.000 What if you're watching people who have a really, really high fever?

01:53:28.000 Who have a body ache?

01:53:29.000 Like, it starts to be harder to say.

01:53:31.000 Yeah.

01:53:33.000 That's the point, though.

01:53:33.000 That's exactly the point.

01:53:35.000 Yeah.

01:53:35.000 Like, we have our limits.

01:53:37.000 What if people's, like, heads were exploding?

01:53:39.000 Like, blood would come out of their eyes, and then within 15 minutes they go, ah!

01:53:43.000 And their heads would blow up.

01:53:44.000 I'd be like, I'll take whatever you got.

01:53:45.000 Yeah.

01:53:46.000 I would be interested in a vaccination for that.

01:53:48.000 Yeah.

01:53:48.000 I would be looking for that.

01:53:49.000 Phil's against having his head blown up.

01:53:51.000 Yeah.

01:53:51.000 It's just we're talking about the severity of the illness as perceived by people.

01:53:55.000 And I suppose if you live in the city and you watch MSNBC, you thought the end was nigh.

01:53:59.000 Oh, yeah.

01:53:59.000 And if you lived in the country and listen to Trump, you were like, well, we'll get through it.

01:54:02.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:54:03.000 Creepy stuff, man.

01:54:05.000 All right.

01:54:06.000 What do we got?

01:54:08.000 Trumpette says, NTD live video on YouTube with CDC, FDA an hour ago was talking about the flu and COVID shot and strokes.

01:54:15.000 Timestamp?

01:54:15.000 3.52 to 15 or whatever.

01:54:19.000 We talked about it.

01:54:20.000 Yeah, around 3 hours and 52 minutes and 3 hours and 54.

01:54:22.000 Yeah, the story came out.

01:54:23.000 It's kind of crazy.

01:54:25.000 We'll see where this one goes, man.

01:54:26.000 We'll see where this one goes.

01:54:29.000 Mitsu Plik says, bottom line is Sweden got it right on COVID.

01:54:33.000 That's right, yeah.

01:54:34.000 Well, it's hard to say.

01:54:36.000 Sweden has eight million people and it's cold.

01:54:40.000 You know what I mean?

01:54:40.000 Right.

01:54:41.000 So people are looking at that data and they're saying, ah, it's like, have you ever played Play Gink?

01:54:45.000 Yeah.

01:54:46.000 It's a game where you manufacture, like you're the virus and it evolves.

01:54:50.000 And it's like, the virus might not live in hot climates.

01:54:53.000 It might not live in cold climates.

01:54:54.000 You have to, Choose where it's gonna be, and then you earn points by, I guess they had like the cure or whatever, where like you're trying to race to make a cure for the virus, something like that.

01:55:03.000 It's a fun game, it's a fun game.

01:55:04.000 There's a board game that's similar called the Pandemic, and you have to like decide how to manage a pandemic.

01:55:08.000 I think we have that downstairs.

01:55:10.000 The hard thing about Plague Inc.

01:55:11.000 is always, you gotta get Iceland first.

01:55:14.000 Because Iceland has only like a seaport, and a few people, but if you don't get Iceland, they close their borders and then they make it.

01:55:20.000 Yeah, true.

01:55:21.000 It's like, oh man.

01:55:22.000 Yeah, so you gotta make sure, it's a fun game, basically in the game, if you make the virus too crazy, and it starts killing people really quickly, it won't spread fast enough, and then countries close their borders, and you lose.

01:55:33.000 So it's got, you gotta have like a really weak transmissible virus, and then, instantly, once everyone's infected, have it go full lethal, like, eyes and ears bleeding, kidney failure, and then the whole world just collapses.

01:55:45.000 It's a game on mobile, you can play it.

01:55:47.000 Download it in the app store, it's fun, everyone loves it.

01:55:49.000 I also looked it up.

01:55:49.000 It's like seven countries that in like Lafayette, Denmark, etc.

01:55:53.000 You said after 29, age 29, that this stopped.

01:55:56.000 Oh, it's a bunch.

01:55:57.000 Yeah, it's numerous countries.

01:55:58.000 Yeah.

01:55:58.000 And the UK is they're not banning it.

01:56:01.000 People keep saying the UK is banning the use of vaccines.

01:56:03.000 No, they're currently yelling at people to get the vaccine now if you're under 50.

01:56:09.000 But then I guess the program is shifting to prioritize 50 plus so you won't be able to get it.

01:56:13.000 So it's not a ban.

01:56:14.000 They're just reprioritizing, meaning you can't.

01:56:16.000 And they're urging everyone to get it.

01:56:19.000 I'm not telling you what to do.

01:56:21.000 You do whatever your doctor tells you.

01:56:22.000 I'm just telling you they're not banning it.

01:56:25.000 All right, all right.

01:56:25.000 Where were we?

01:56:27.000 Masterbojangles says apparently there's footage of police killing a man in handcuffs that is about to be released from Memphis.

01:56:33.000 That is why there is a heightened presence in Georgia.

01:56:36.000 I guess they expect protests to ramp up.

01:56:38.000 I think that the video that I saw where the cop pulls out what she thought was her gun

01:56:43.000 or she thought was her taser and it's the gun.

01:56:45.000 Did you see that one?

01:56:45.000 No.

01:56:47.000 I mean, that happened in Minnesota.

01:56:49.000 Yeah, I don't know if that was just recently, if I'm watching wrong.

01:56:52.000 Yeah, no, I think it just happened.

01:56:53.000 I don't know if that's the video they're talking about, but I saw it right before we started.

01:56:57.000 I watched a video of the cops were trying to involuntarily commit 60 year old woman so she shot the cops and the bullet got lodged in the body camera of the woman and she's like kept going and then they shot the lady in the head.

01:57:10.000 It's crazy man but like the challenge is When the cops come and they're like, yo, we're going to involuntarily commit you because we think you're a danger to yourself or others.

01:57:21.000 And then you're like, I have an idea. 0.95

01:57:22.000 I will start shooting at you. 0.98

01:57:23.000 It's like, you kind of prove why you needed to be committed. 0.97

01:57:27.000 But I suppose the challenge with involuntary commitment is the police are arresting you with you having not committed any crimes.

01:57:33.000 So I don't know.

01:57:35.000 I don't know how to navigate that one constitutionally, but then she started shooting at people. 1.00

01:57:38.000 So it's the kind of person that probably should not be doing that.

01:57:43.000 Well, like literally no one should be, but that's a tough question, man.

01:57:45.000 Because I guess the argument is she wouldn't have done it if they didn't try to take her without charge, you know?

01:57:52.000 Well, I mean, yeah, and there's a lot of stories like, what do you do if someone calls in and claims you're doing a thing and then they try to arrest you even though you didn't do anything wrong?

01:57:58.000 It's creepy stuff.

01:57:59.000 Yeah.

01:58:00.000 All right.

01:58:01.000 That's the problem with red flag laws. 0.85

01:58:03.000 Yeah.

01:58:04.000 Right.

01:58:05.000 Highlander Ultra says, Tim, will you open a coffee shop in South Carolina?

01:58:07.000 Will you offer your keto bacon egg and cheese recipe breakfast menu item at these coffee bars?

01:58:13.000 I don't know if we're going to do food like that.

01:58:15.000 If you do food, you have to do vinegar eggs.

01:58:18.000 No, but, you know, what we could do is, here's what I do.

01:58:21.000 I take, you take an egg, you put some almond flour in it, you scramble it up, put it in the microwave, and it fluffs up into a little keto bun.

01:58:29.000 No sugar.

01:58:30.000 Really?

01:58:30.000 Yeah, you cut it, you take an egg, you put it in a pan, you mash the yolk up a little bit, slosh it around, fry it, put it, cheese, bacon, almond bun, delicious.

01:58:40.000 But when are you releasing the cookbook 101 Ways to Make Eggs by Tim Pool?

01:58:44.000 You've got the chickens, you've got the egg recipes, like, this is the product I need.

01:58:49.000 We did this here, I mean, I shouldn't say we, but I can't remember who made it, they cooked a bunch of different egg recipes.

01:58:54.000 There was that one where you, like, make a meringue or something, you whip the egg whites and then bake it, so it's fluffy and it's called, like, cloudy eggs, and then you put the yolk in the middle and something like that?

01:59:03.000 When you guys went to Nashville last year we had like a whole day where we made breakfast and Dane made like a huge frittata like we can do this.

01:59:12.000 Yo, we should be making deviled eggs non-stop. 0.98

01:59:14.000 Deviled eggs are so good.

01:59:15.000 It's like I can eat two eggs for breakfast or I can eat 15 deviled eggs.

01:59:18.000 I don't know how that works.

01:59:21.000 So good.

01:59:22.000 But they're just amazing.

01:59:23.000 Alright.

01:59:27.000 What do we got?

01:59:28.000 Will Cybernot says, Kent is right about Seattle creating preppers.

01:59:30.000 I'm so thankful we left.

01:59:32.000 The family that bought the house from us is holding the bag.

01:59:35.000 Yeah.

01:59:36.000 Yeah.

01:59:38.000 Fleeing the city. 1.00

01:59:38.000 Sucks. 1.00

01:59:40.000 Sad, too, because Seattle, I think, was one of the most beautiful cities in the country 15 years ago. 0.95

01:59:45.000 It's just destroyed now.

01:59:46.000 The Pacific Northwest is absolutely gorgeous.

01:59:49.000 Beautiful.

01:59:50.000 Is Seattle like ceded territory?

01:59:51.000 Like, do you think there's any recovering for it?

01:59:54.000 It's way away from where I live, fortunately.

01:59:57.000 But I feel Portland is right below us.

01:59:59.000 And I think both of them are in the same boat that they're going to have to really hit bottom.

02:00:03.000 A lot of the big businesses that kind of held that place down economically are slowly and quietly leaving.

02:00:08.000 And so when that happens, does it become Detroit and then bounce back up?

02:00:12.000 That's the big question.

02:00:13.000 Interesting.

02:00:15.000 Alright, Joe Field says, I'm just saying Jordan's behavior seemed like a performance.

02:00:21.000 I believe half of what I see and none of what I hear.

02:00:24.000 Fair point.

02:00:25.000 Nicholas Alvarado says, I just want to know how James O'Keefe found Tinder for Hydra.

02:00:30.000 All right, everybody, if you have not already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, and become a member at TimCast.com.

02:00:40.000 We're gonna have a members-only uncensored show coming up for you in about one hour at TimCast.com.

02:00:46.000 Members-only, as I said.

02:00:48.000 You're also supporting our cultural endeavors, like the coffee shop and things like that, which are currently underway.

02:00:52.000 We have construction we have to do to build the bar, permitting.

02:00:55.000 We're probably gonna go for a liquor license.

02:00:56.000 There's a lot of work.

02:00:57.000 It's all happening.

02:00:58.000 Just takes time.

02:00:59.000 Really excited to get up and ready, and then the coffee sale should be starting up any moment.

02:01:02.000 We're actually in the process of getting it roasted, and actually, I don't think they're roasting it.

02:01:06.000 I think they're printing the bags.

02:01:08.000 I think the roasts are actually made to order, but I'm fairly certain.

02:01:11.000 I think what they do is, like, we order a certain amount to be sold in a short period of time, and then we have to reorder, like, a ton that we expect to sell, and then it, like, doesn't last as long or something like that.

02:01:24.000 I gotta, you know, figure that one out, but I'm pretty sure it's, like, roasted to order.

02:01:28.000 So thanks for your support.
