Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - TimcastIRL - Alex Jones Says Joe Rogan Is "Going To War" Over Censorship With Spotify

00:00:00.000 Welcome to the show, everybody.

00:00:21.000 This is the TimCast IRL Podcast.

00:00:23.000 I am Tim Poole.

00:00:24.000 Tonight, I am hanging out with the same people I hang out with every night.

00:00:27.000 It's true.

00:00:28.000 What's going on, everybody?

00:00:29.000 It's Adam Krigler here.

00:00:30.000 Thanks for joining us.

00:00:32.000 And Lydia, producer Lydia, with my Alkaline Trio t-shirt.

00:00:35.000 Alkaline Trio, local Chicago music.

00:00:37.000 No, they're huge, they're national.

00:00:39.000 Oh man, Alex Jones, he came out and he said, Joe Rogan is going to war over censorship!

00:00:46.000 And he talked a lot about Joe calling him.

00:00:49.000 There's a lot to talk about here because I'm sitting here, we were originally going to talk about something else, something totally different.

00:00:55.000 We're going to talk about contact tracing.

00:00:56.000 We are.

00:00:57.000 And then I saw this article, and it's obviously not being covered by the mainstream media.

00:01:01.000 Yeah.

00:01:01.000 It's being covered by a bunch of small, independent blogs, conspiracy sites, and stuff like that.

00:01:05.000 Well, they don't want to spread it around.

00:01:07.000 Well, it's also Alex Jones.

00:01:09.000 And there's a lot to question.

00:01:09.000 Right.

00:01:11.000 And so when I heard him saying that, you know, Joe Rogan called him and told him this stuff, I'm like, I don't know about that.

00:01:17.000 I got to do something real quick.

00:01:18.000 What are we at?

00:01:20.000 I believe you're actually looking at a text from Joe right now.

00:01:23.000 Is that what you're doing?

00:01:24.000 Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

00:01:25.000 I'm trying to get confirmation.

00:01:26.000 Hey, man.

00:01:27.000 Yeah, we want confirmation before we talk about it.

00:01:29.000 Confirmation.

00:01:30.000 And it's a last minute thing.

00:01:31.000 So we just changed the title.

00:01:32.000 It was like, we're gonna talk about contact tracing.

00:01:33.000 Well, I mean, people want to know that you're getting it from the source.

00:01:36.000 But the problem is, when I'm talking with someone, be it Adam Krigler, Luke Rudkowski, Joe Rogan, I have to make sure I don't violate privacy.

00:01:51.000 You know, I don't know what I'm allowed to talk about.

00:01:53.000 I don't know what's on the record, what's not.

00:01:56.000 So I can't talk about, you know, unless they say to me like, hey, this is what's what, you're cool.

00:02:00.000 And so I'm trying to figure things out.

00:02:02.000 I have not figured anything out.

00:02:04.000 But Alex Jones did say that Joe Rogan called him and said some things, and so as soon as I heard that I was like, I don't know if I believe that.

00:02:12.000 I gotta text some people, see what's going on.

00:02:14.000 But, I have not gotten any confirmation, but I did have kind of like a lightbulb moment about what Joe is doing with Spotify, and how it's going to revolutionize, and whether or not Joe is really going to war, what Alex Jones says, this might save the internet.

00:02:30.000 I hope so.

00:02:31.000 I mean it.

00:02:32.000 Yeah.

00:02:32.000 I was sitting here and I'm like, we're going to talk about contact tracing and people getting their phones together.

00:02:35.000 And I was like, whoa, wait a minute.

00:02:38.000 No.

00:02:38.000 So we're going to talk about it.

00:02:40.000 Everybody calm down.

00:02:41.000 If you're just tuning in, hit that like button.

00:02:44.000 Just smash it.

00:02:45.000 Give us all those likes.

00:02:46.000 Because at the end of the year, Joe will be leaving YouTube.

00:02:49.000 And so we, among with all of the other video podcasts, are going to be in a battle royale, like Hunger Games style.

00:02:56.000 So we're going to win.

00:02:57.000 We're going to claim.

00:02:58.000 No, I'm just kidding.

00:02:59.000 But someone will eventually, you know, become the top YouTube show.

00:03:02.000 But anyway, hit the like button if you want to.

00:03:04.000 You can jump in the super chat if you would like to ask questions.

00:03:08.000 However, I must remind everybody, when we get to, you know, we've been averaging maybe like 10 or 12, one night even like 15, 16,000 people.

00:03:17.000 I love all you guys, really appreciate all the superchats.

00:03:19.000 It literally does become impossible to actually read everything, so we try to, you know, just work for a couple hours, because most of you realize I work through the mornings, and then this is the second show, it's two hours, so it's tough.

00:03:30.000 I can't, you know, I'd love to stay here for five hours all night, read literally everyone, but it's hard to do.

00:03:34.000 So get your superchats if you'd like.

00:03:36.000 We usually go through the ones from the earliest in the night, and then it gets harder to read the ones from later on.

00:03:41.000 We've got a couple stories though.

00:03:43.000 So we're definitely be talking about contact tracing because Apple just did this big iOS update and there's a viral image going around saying it's the new API for the contact tracing apps.

00:03:54.000 And this has people freaking out because contact tracing basically means the general idea with your phone is that if I walk up to you Okay.

00:04:01.000 It's messed up.

00:04:02.000 like tag each other.

00:04:03.000 OK.

00:04:04.000 And then they can see who everyone talked to and

00:04:07.000 you know, or who made contact with who else.

00:04:10.000 They'll know where you went.

00:04:11.000 And it's like an extreme level of spying.

00:04:14.000 It did just ask me if I needed to update.

00:04:17.000 And I said no.

00:04:18.000 I bet it's in there.

00:04:19.000 I didn't update it.

00:04:19.000 I bet.

00:04:20.000 Now I don't want to.

00:04:21.000 Because you have iPhone.

00:04:22.000 That's it.

00:04:22.000 I do, yeah.

00:04:23.000 No, I don't... No, pull up the description of what it is.

00:04:23.000 No, no, no.

00:04:23.000 Pull it up.

00:04:26.000 Oh, I... Okay.

00:04:27.000 And we can read what it says.

00:04:28.000 Let's see.

00:04:29.000 So that's a big deal.

00:04:30.000 And I think this initial update isn't what you need to be worried about.

00:04:33.000 It's what comes next.

00:04:34.000 And we'll talk about that too.

00:04:35.000 And then maybe we'll talk about aliens, because we've been talking about how we want to talk about aliens.

00:04:38.000 Yeah, but it might make me update it.

00:04:40.000 No, no, no.

00:04:40.000 It says before you update it, like, it shows you what it is and then you click install.

00:04:46.000 I mean, what are you gonna do?

00:04:47.000 You gonna avoid the update and just like never do it?

00:04:49.000 I'm dead serious.

00:04:49.000 Yes.

00:04:49.000 Yep.

00:04:50.000 Is there something feedbacking about you?

00:04:52.000 I don't mind.

00:04:52.000 A power cable or something?

00:04:53.000 Yeah, I hear that too, yeah.

00:04:54.000 It's annoying when that happens.

00:04:56.000 Like, you get one of the cables gets too close to another cable and then... So, the first thing you've got to do is gossip, man.

00:05:03.000 The censorship gossip is huge.

00:05:06.000 We've got to talk about this.

00:05:08.000 I'm reading the update right now.

00:05:10.000 You know what?

00:05:11.000 I'll get it ready for when we talk about the next one.

00:05:13.000 We'll talk about the update, but here's what we're going to do now.

00:05:16.000 Let's talk about this Madhouse News.

00:05:17.000 I have no idea what this website is, but that's okay.

00:05:20.000 Oh, it's actually being reviewed by NewsGuard.

00:05:22.000 NewsGuard's in the process of reviewing Madhouse News.

00:05:22.000 Look at this.

00:05:24.000 Oh, Madhouse News.

00:05:25.000 Interesting.

00:05:26.000 I mean, I haven't read it.

00:05:28.000 Let's read it.

00:05:29.000 I Google-searched, you know, Alex Jones, Joe Rogan, nothing comes up.

00:05:33.000 This is what I was able to find through, it was on r slash conspiracy on Reddit.

00:05:37.000 This is the article they posted.

00:05:39.000 And I watched some of the video from Rogan.

00:05:40.000 He said some interesting things.

00:05:42.000 And if this is true, there might be a really big... Joe Rogan may be about to use his weight.

00:05:50.000 Maybe it's inadvertent, but it might really break censorship.

00:05:54.000 Joe Rogan, you're the hero we all need.

00:05:56.000 Yeah, well, let's check.

00:05:59.000 We'll see.

00:06:00.000 So again, I don't know what Madhouse News is, but they say Joe Rogan says he is going to war against Google and Big Tech.

00:06:00.000 Here's the story, right?

00:06:05.000 Full stop.

00:06:06.000 No, Joe Rogan didn't say that.

00:06:08.000 Alex Jones said that Joe called him and said this.

00:06:11.000 Right.

00:06:12.000 So that is not confirmed.

00:06:14.000 If you trust Alex Jones, I guess, personally, and I mean this with all due respect, I don't.

00:06:19.000 You know, I'm not trying to drag the guy.

00:06:20.000 I'm just saying I want to hear it straight from Joe before I just believe what Alex Jones is saying.

00:06:26.000 Alex Jones exclusively revealed Thursday that Joe Rogan signed an exclusivity contract for his podcast with Spotify as a way of striking back against YouTube censorship.

00:06:35.000 Jones, who has been friends with Rogan for 22 years, spoke at length with the podcast King, with Rogan telling him that he should announce to the world that the move is a direct strike against Google, that the, quote, gloves are off and he is going to war against big tech tyranny.

00:06:50.000 Jones told his audience that Rogan had encouraged him to go on air and put it all out there.

00:06:55.000 The deal, suggested to be worth $100 million.

00:06:56.000 Full stop.

00:06:57.000 Yashir Ali.

00:06:58.000 He's a Huffington Post contributor.

00:06:59.000 Very well known.

00:07:00.000 High profile journalist.

00:07:01.000 Said $200 million.

00:07:03.000 That's an update.

00:07:04.000 I don't know if that's true.

00:07:05.000 The deal would be worth $100 million.

00:07:06.000 Was announced earlier this week.

00:07:08.000 Analysts are saying that it will change the face of media forever.

00:07:11.000 I agree.

00:07:12.000 Jones, who has appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience numerous times, also announced that Rogan had specifically requested in his contract with Spotify that the InfoWars host will be allowed to appear uncensored on the podcast on Spotify.

00:07:23.000 Jones said Rogan wants him as the first guest on the show when it arrives on Spotify on the 1st of September, followed by Elon Musk, who is also currently speaking out against big tech censorship and cancel culture.

00:07:34.000 I don't know about that.

00:07:34.000 Whoa.

00:07:35.000 Let's see what they have to say on this one.

00:07:37.000 Oh, this is a link to InfoWars.

00:07:38.000 InfoWars says Google got caught shadowbanning Joe Rogan's number one podcast.

00:07:41.000 Whoa.

00:07:42.000 Google was subsequently caught shadow banning the episode in an attempt to stop its popularity.

00:07:46.000 This is a, I don't know about that.

00:07:48.000 Let's see what they have to say on this one.

00:07:49.000 Oh, this is a link to Infowars.

00:07:51.000 They said Infowars says Google got caught shadow banning Joe Rogan's number one podcast.

00:07:57.000 We'll come back to that.

00:07:58.000 They say, Jones said Rogan told him he's sick of being treated poorly by Google.

00:08:02.000 And the straw that broke the camel's back was that Rogan wanted to interview doctors

00:08:06.000 and experts who have differing opinions on the coronavirus to the officially sanctioned

00:08:09.000 narrative and was told by YouTube that they would not allow such content on their platform.

00:08:14.000 I don't know if Joe actually said that, but I can tell you, there was a former advisor to the World Health Organization, this is going viral on Twitter, I don't know if I actually have the tweets pulled up, but apparently, World Health Organization.

00:08:26.000 Advisor.

00:08:27.000 Gave an interview.

00:08:28.000 YouTube pulled it.

00:08:29.000 Wow.

00:08:30.000 Yup.

00:08:30.000 Creepy stuff.

00:08:33.000 They say Rogan also told Jones the lockdown has provided him with more clarity on the situation.

00:08:39.000 Rogan has noted on his podcast that YouTube is consistently demonetizing his content and removing videos.

00:08:44.000 He told Jones that he sees it not only as un-American but also anti-human.

00:08:48.000 An excited Jones described Describe?

00:08:52.000 I think maybe decried?

00:08:54.000 It could be decried.

00:08:56.000 I don't know.

00:08:56.000 Decreed?

00:08:58.000 He said the move by Rogan was peak internet.

00:09:01.000 I don't know what they're trying to say, whether it was positive or negative, unless described is a word I'm not familiar with.

00:09:06.000 Rogan's podcast was downloaded 190 million times per month last year.

00:09:13.000 His YouTube channel has 8.42 million subs, and the move away is sure to be a huge strike against big tech thought control.

00:09:20.000 Note to readers, eh, whatever.

00:09:22.000 So this links to the InfoWars story.

00:09:25.000 I don't know what their evidence that this was being shadow banned is.

00:09:28.000 Let's see what they say.

00:09:29.000 The video wasn't appearing.

00:09:30.000 Alex Jones returns.

00:09:32.000 And then you can see it's not here.

00:09:33.000 Alex Jones believed the video's disappearance could be tied to real-time manipulation of the platform's algorithms, especially as his interview with Rogan has recently begun appearing as the top search result for the search term Alex Jones on YouTube.

00:09:44.000 I actually believe that's possible because they did it to me just the other day.

00:09:47.000 Yeah.

00:09:48.000 So I did a video on the lockdown and it did not appear.

00:09:50.000 So for those that don't know the context, lockdown, you know, has happened across the country.

00:09:55.000 In Virginia, people flooded to the beaches.

00:09:57.000 I did a video and I said, the people have spoken.

00:09:59.000 They're ignoring these orders, and the video did not appear on my channel, so I raised a huge stink on Twitter, and then people started sharing the video, and the video started to pick up views through direct shares.

00:10:13.000 Now, the video actually appears on the channel, so I think, I don't know what their strategy is, I don't play that.

00:10:19.000 If any of my videos get shadowbanned or censored, I go full on every other platform, share it, share it, share it, and I ask everybody to share it.

00:10:25.000 And it's only with your guys' help who do share it that we actually break that attempt at censoring the video.

00:10:30.000 So YouTube, I think... Let me tell you a quick story, and then we're gonna talk about...

00:10:35.000 This is, if this is true, and if what we're already hearing about Rogan, if he does bring on Alex Jones, it's going to break the internet.

00:10:42.000 And I mean, seriously.

00:10:45.000 But let me first tell you a quick story.

00:10:46.000 Or save the internet.

00:10:47.000 No, I mean break it as in like the current structure of power is going to be shattered.

00:10:52.000 It's going to be great.

00:10:52.000 Basically the same, yeah.

00:10:53.000 It's going to be really, really good.

00:10:55.000 Really good.

00:10:56.000 Let me tell you a quick story.

00:10:57.000 A lot of these companies know they can't take instant, direct action.

00:11:01.000 They can't just ban me, they can't just ban Alex Jones, they can't just ban Joe Rogan.

00:11:06.000 Alex Jones was, like, over a long period of time, and it wasn't until, like, one site pulled him that the others used that as a cover to try and get rid of him immediately.

00:11:14.000 And it did start a huge backlash.

00:11:16.000 So, these companies know that to purge channels, you gotta do it slowly.

00:11:21.000 One at a time, so you don't create a big wave that hits the press.

00:11:24.000 Okay.

00:11:25.000 That's why we've been seeing people banned on YouTube.

00:11:27.000 They'll get banned, and it'll be like one channel.

00:11:30.000 And then everyone's like, oh, what's this all about?

00:11:31.000 But this is one channel.

00:11:32.000 It's, you know, one guy.

00:11:33.000 And then the next week, it's another channel.

00:11:35.000 And then another channel.

00:11:35.000 Yeah.

00:11:36.000 How long ago was Alex banned?

00:11:37.000 When was this?

00:11:38.000 A couple years ago, maybe?

00:11:39.000 A couple years now?

00:11:39.000 I don't know.

00:11:40.000 Do you know when it was banned?

00:11:40.000 I'm not sure.

00:11:41.000 I can look it up, though.

00:11:42.000 Let me check.

00:11:43.000 Trying to figure out where that buzz is coming from.

00:11:43.000 Hmm.

00:11:45.000 Yeah.

00:11:46.000 Oh, there we go.

00:11:47.000 Okay.

00:11:47.000 There it is.

00:11:48.000 I think I got it.

00:11:49.000 So, um, in order to actually make these changes, they do it slowly and they, and they learned this early on.

00:11:55.000 It's really funny.

00:11:56.000 It actually took Facebook a long time.

00:11:57.000 The famous story is that eBay, the website used to be yellow.

00:12:00.000 Okay.

00:12:01.000 One day they changed it to white and everyone complained.

00:12:03.000 I remember this.

00:12:04.000 So they changed it.

00:12:04.000 Slowly changed the color, right?

00:12:06.000 Every day they did one increment towards white.

00:12:08.000 And then a year later, nobody knew it changed.

00:12:10.000 Yeah.

00:12:10.000 So, we saw that with Facebook, too.

00:12:12.000 Funny.

00:12:12.000 When they do these instant rollovers, everyone complains.

00:12:15.000 Same thing just happened with YouTube.

00:12:16.000 When they switched to the new studio, everybody's complaining.

00:12:18.000 I was complaining.

00:12:19.000 It was bad.

00:12:20.000 It was bad.

00:12:20.000 They fixed a lot of the problems, so I'm happy with it.

00:12:22.000 But here's what I think.

00:12:24.000 You know, with YouTube, they are absolutely purging a lot of people.

00:12:28.000 But Joe Rogan's too big.

00:12:28.000 Yeah.

00:12:31.000 He's the biggest podcast in the world.

00:12:33.000 So we asked Alex Jones, what are they going to do about it?

00:12:35.000 And everybody screamed, you can't do this, he's violating the rules.

00:12:35.000 I don't know.

00:12:38.000 And then I think it was, was it Logan Paul who had him on?

00:12:41.000 I don't know.

00:12:42.000 I don't remember.

00:12:43.000 Logan Paul had Alex Jones?

00:12:44.000 I don't know who the Paul brothers are.

00:12:46.000 What the heck?

00:12:47.000 I can't tell, I don't know who they are, but one of them had them on their podcast.

00:12:50.000 What Alex Jones is saying, if Alex Jones really is guaranteed to be the first guest for Joe

00:12:57.000 Rogan on September 1st, Joe Rogan will force YouTube to not censor the podcast and effectively

00:13:05.000 not censor anything at all after that.

00:13:08.000 It will be like... But how does that work, though?

00:13:11.000 He's going to be on Spotify, not YouTube, doing his podcast.

00:13:14.000 When he launches on Spotify, it will be still on YouTube and iTunes.

00:13:18.000 So it'll be live on YouTube as well?

00:13:20.000 Yep.

00:13:21.000 Oh, okay.

00:13:21.000 And so, you know what that means?

00:13:22.000 Well, not live.

00:13:22.000 He doesn't do them live.

00:13:23.000 No, no, no.

00:13:23.000 It'll be, like, published.

00:13:25.000 He's not doing a live stream, any of it.

00:13:25.000 Okay.

00:13:26.000 Right, right, right, right.

00:13:28.000 Here's my general understanding.

00:13:29.000 I haven't gotten any confirmation or anything.

00:13:30.000 I'd like to.

00:13:32.000 But if... So Joe has said, September 1st, it's gonna be on Spotify, and then later in the year, it'll become exclusive on Spotify, right?

00:13:40.000 That means there's this period of a few months where...

00:13:45.000 If it's true what Jones is saying, that Joe wants to interview doctors, but YouTube says they'll ban him, what's going to happen then on September 3rd, after Elon Musk comes on the show, and Joe Rogan has on this World Health Organization doctor who recently got banned?

00:14:04.000 And that's everybody saying that.

00:14:04.000 and Joe goes, do it, I'm on Spotify.

00:14:07.000 Yeah, I don't care.

00:14:09.000 And then everyone else is gonna laugh at YouTube.

00:14:11.000 Right.

00:14:12.000 And they're gonna be like, do it, YouTube, ban him.

00:14:13.000 Cause he's on Spotify, we'll all go there, no problem.

00:14:14.000 Yep, and that's, everybody's saying that.

00:14:17.000 Actually, people are coming to me saying, you, Tim Poole and your show,

00:14:23.000 meaning this show here, and Joe Rogan, are the only reasons they're still on YouTube.

00:14:28.000 That's it.

00:14:28.000 They're like, if Tim gets banned, and Joe's leaving already, there's no reason for me to go to YouTube anymore.

00:14:36.000 It's not the same as it used to be.

00:14:38.000 I think this is why YouTube likes me.

00:14:41.000 There are people who used to watch a lot of these...

00:14:46.000 I don't know how to describe some of these channels.

00:14:48.000 More right-wing channels that eventually have been banned and demonetized.

00:14:51.000 And there's an overlap with... I think it's more libertarian, to be honest.

00:14:56.000 Because YouTube originally was very much a libertarian community, not conservative.

00:14:59.000 Conservative's a relatively new thing.

00:15:01.000 We've been watching the spike in conservative channels.

00:15:05.000 There's an overlap for the culture war right with content like mine.

00:15:08.000 You know, anti-SJW, free speech, all that kind of stuff, right?

00:15:12.000 So even though I'm a, you know, of liberal sensibilities in terms of policy, that is completely irrelevant to the political conversation today.

00:15:18.000 No one cares.

00:15:19.000 Left and right doesn't mean it anymore.

00:15:21.000 So YouTube says, we're gonna ban all these people.

00:15:24.000 But then we're gonna lose all these users.

00:15:26.000 Who do we have they'll stick around to watch?

00:15:30.000 Well, they'll watch Tim Pool, you know?

00:15:32.000 Yeah.

00:15:32.000 They're like, great.

00:15:33.000 That way we don't lose the users, but we can get rid of people, you know, these other people.

00:15:37.000 Oh, they're gonna lose a lot of users, I think.

00:15:39.000 With Joe Rogan moving, I think so.

00:15:41.000 Yeah, definitely.

00:15:42.000 But I do think Joe will lose a lot of viewers, too.

00:15:45.000 I do.

00:15:46.000 But here's just the sledgehammer to the dam, man.

00:15:51.000 September 1st, Joe Rogan has on Alex Jones.

00:15:53.000 I don't know if that's actually true, I'm just saying, that's what Alex Jones is claiming.

00:15:58.000 YouTube is going to be put in a very, very tough position.

00:16:03.000 We are going to lose the king of podcast unless we allow this content to exist on the platform.

00:16:10.000 We're already, hey, hey, YouTube might say, you know what, we're losing them anyway, ban them.

00:16:14.000 Yeah.

00:16:14.000 I think that's most likely.

00:16:16.000 That's true.

00:16:16.000 No?

00:16:16.000 around because Joe said he's leaving.

00:16:19.000 I think that's most likely.

00:16:20.000 I don't think so.

00:16:21.000 No, no way.

00:16:22.000 The bad press would be, it would be nuts.

00:16:23.000 The press would be insane.

00:16:25.000 That's true.

00:16:26.000 It is the biggest podcast.

00:16:27.000 And then think about the statement that would come out of Spotify.

00:16:29.000 They would love it.

00:16:31.000 Spotify!

00:16:32.000 Oh man, Spotify would be like... That would be their new commercial.

00:16:35.000 Yup! 0.99

00:16:35.000 Joe Rogan absolutely made the correct move in, you know, joining the Spotify family. 0.99

00:16:40.000 We will absolutely protect his right to speech and stuff.

00:16:43.000 And I'm sure Spotify has some kind of, like, protections for really, really fringe characters.

00:16:47.000 But here's what it's all about, man.

00:16:49.000 On Hulu, because we talked about this the other day when we were talking about Joe doing the Spotify deal.

00:16:54.000 I can watch Solar Opposites from Justin Roiland where they cuss and swear all night and it is very adult.

00:16:59.000 And Hulu's got no problem with it.

00:17:01.000 It's YouTube that is doing the weird censorship of like World Health Organization advisors.

00:17:05.000 Yeah.

00:17:05.000 And real doctors.

00:17:07.000 So yeah, maybe it is the right move to get off this platform.

00:17:10.000 Because Joe's spoken about the censorship on his show being bad.

00:17:14.000 I'm pretty sure.

00:17:15.000 I mean, actually, I'm pretty sure we talked about it.

00:17:17.000 Yeah.

00:17:18.000 So, Alex Jones is the first person?

00:17:21.000 If that's true, I mean, it's gonna be huge.

00:17:25.000 That's a bold statement.

00:17:26.000 Yeah.

00:17:27.000 Elon Musk being second, I'm like, I don't know.

00:17:30.000 That's not an issue.

00:17:32.000 It's that if in this time period where he's doing the show, he starts bringing on guests and YouTube then is forced to ban him, it's Spotify's gonna be so happy.

00:17:41.000 Yep.

00:17:41.000 Especially with, uh, all the other people that they've been slowing up slowly.

00:17:45.000 Well, yeah, I'm talking about YouTube though.

00:17:47.000 They're, they're banning people.

00:17:48.000 They're getting stricter.

00:17:49.000 People are getting fed up with YouTube and they're like, what, what is going on here?

00:17:53.000 So if this works for Rogan, it's like Spotify is going to be like, come on, this might join our family.

00:17:59.000 And they're just going to explode.

00:17:59.000 Come on.

00:18:01.000 I really, really doubt this, but I feel like deep down there may be someone involved in this that understands.

00:18:08.000 This gap period where Joe will simultaneously be gearing up to go exclusive on Spotify but still be on iTunes and YouTube will be an excellent marketing opportunity for Spotify.

00:18:19.000 Think about it this way.

00:18:20.000 When you look at the comments on the Joe Rogan subreddit and on the YouTube videos about his move, there's a lot of people saying, I won't move.

00:18:28.000 I'm not gonna go to Spotify.

00:18:29.000 There are people saying, RIP comment section.

00:18:33.000 People saying, you know, Joe sold out, stuff like that.

00:18:35.000 So think about what Spotify- Sold out?

00:18:37.000 That's ridiculous.

00:18:38.000 Yeah, it's- What does that even mean?

00:18:40.000 Like, he has any- Come on.

00:18:41.000 Any allegiance to YouTube?

00:18:43.000 It'll be free with ads.

00:18:44.000 He puts it out there.

00:18:45.000 It's a free show.

00:18:46.000 You're like, what?

00:18:47.000 And isn't Spotify, there's a free version too?

00:18:49.000 I mean, it'll be free with ads.

00:18:51.000 Okay.

00:18:51.000 Right.

00:18:52.000 So, so, so look, look at this way.

00:18:53.000 Spotify knows they're not going to be able to convert most of his YouTube followers.

00:18:59.000 They're hoping that his core fan base bring, bringing the show will bring these

00:18:59.000 Right.

00:18:59.000 Okay.

00:19:03.000 people there and eventually.

00:19:04.000 I'm sure out of the 8 million people, 4 million, maybe 5 million.

00:19:08.000 A lot of people.

00:19:09.000 Or already have Spotify.

00:19:11.000 I'm sure that Joe's probably got a million unique individuals who are guaranteed to watch the show every day.

00:19:17.000 Or listen to the show every day.

00:19:18.000 And then it's the numbers above that.

00:19:18.000 Yeah, probably.

00:19:21.000 So that's split between his podcast, which probably gets... I don't know how much his podcast gets.

00:19:27.000 But, you know, out of the two or three million per episode he gets, 100 are core fans who are always coming back.

00:19:34.000 That's maybe a high estimate, I'm thinking.

00:19:37.000 But think, from Spotify's perspective, they need a catalyst to where the YouTube people jump to Spotify.

00:19:44.000 So how do you do it?

00:19:45.000 You antagonize YouTube.

00:19:46.000 Yep.

00:19:47.000 So in this month of September... That's his plan.

00:19:49.000 Joe can be like, I can have on anybody I want, because I signed this deal with Spotify.

00:19:53.000 So he brings on doctors, and then YouTube, if YouTube does, say episode 3, September 3rd, or whatever the date is, I don't know if the 3rd was even a, what day that is.

00:20:02.000 Let's say Joe brings on this guy from the World Health Organization who got banned, or those two doctors in SoCal who got banned.

00:20:08.000 That's what I want to see.

00:20:08.000 them on. That's what I want to see. YouTube then says we're banning this podcast. And

00:20:14.000 then Spotify is a statement. The podcast is readily available for anybody who'd like to

00:20:17.000 hear it on our platform free of charge. It's unfortunate that YouTube would engage in censorship.

00:20:21.000 And then that says to all the people on YouTube who are in the middle of watching and we got

00:20:26.000 cut off. Come to Spotify, baby.

00:20:28.000 Well, that's why I cut it off.

00:20:30.000 It does make sense that it's basically going to war against the big, big companies.

00:20:34.000 I think although Spotify, I mean, it is pretty big company, you know, but I guess it's not YouTube, not YouTube big.

00:20:42.000 I mean.

00:20:42.000 Have you seen... What's that movie called?

00:20:47.000 Cobra Kai.

00:20:47.000 No, I haven't.

00:20:48.000 On YouTube.

00:20:49.000 It was really funny.

00:20:49.000 No, I haven't seen it yet.

00:20:50.000 The show was amazing.

00:20:51.000 I didn't watch the second season.

00:20:52.000 I watched the first season.

00:20:53.000 I heard it was good, though.

00:20:54.000 YouTube original.

00:20:56.000 And for those that aren't familiar, it basically is a sequel to The Karate Kid, where it's basically making the main character from Karate Kid the bad guy.

00:21:05.000 So actually, this is hilarious.

00:21:06.000 There was a viral video that argued the main character from Karate Kid was the bad guy.

00:21:10.000 Yeah, all the time.

00:21:11.000 Yeah.

00:21:12.000 And that this dude was just like minding his own business and this kid kept, you know, messing with him, trying to steal his girlfriend.

00:21:17.000 And so they do this new show where he's basically like an old, you know, like sensei.

00:21:21.000 No, no, he's like a deadbeat.

00:21:21.000 Deadbeat.

00:21:22.000 And then he becomes better.

00:21:24.000 The show was edgy and offensive.

00:21:24.000 Right, right, right.

00:21:27.000 And so a lot of us on YouTube that we were laughing.

00:21:28.000 It's funny.

00:21:29.000 YouTube will make a show that breaks their rules and we can't do the same thing.

00:21:34.000 How about that?

00:21:35.000 Yeah.

00:21:36.000 That's how broken YouTube is as a business.

00:21:38.000 What's true for thee, but not me.

00:21:40.000 And I don't know what it is.

00:21:41.000 I do think things are getting better on YouTube.

00:21:44.000 I think so.

00:21:46.000 I've noticed a lot of changes.

00:21:48.000 Apparently, we got messaged the other night.

00:21:50.000 People were saying that the TimCast IRL podcast got verified by YouTube, which means we got a little checkmark.

00:21:55.000 Oh, we're verified, people!

00:21:57.000 That's right, we're verified.

00:21:58.000 I don't know when that happened, because it's a new channel.

00:22:00.000 I don't know when that happened, but apparently YouTube, you know, did this.

00:22:03.000 And I have to wonder if This move that Joe is doing, it's all speculation whether or not he really does this like anti-censorship salvo.

00:22:12.000 But he is leaving.

00:22:13.000 He should totally do it.

00:22:14.000 But he is leaving though.

00:22:15.000 He is leaving.

00:22:16.000 That's for sure.

00:22:17.000 And so why wouldn't he?

00:22:19.000 Why wouldn't he?

00:22:20.000 You're right.

00:22:21.000 Joe, I'm pretty sure, like, it's hard for me to say definitively because I've listened to a ton of his podcast,

00:22:27.000 but I'm pretty sure he was talking about the doctors getting banned and all that stuff.

00:22:29.000 Yeah.

00:22:30.000 So, assuming that's all true, I'd imagine he would want to have on, you know—

00:22:36.000 Those doctors.

00:22:37.000 Or just a different opinion.

00:22:39.000 You're right.

00:22:39.000 About what we should be doing.

00:22:42.000 Why would YouTube have it as policy to ban a doctor?

00:22:45.000 As prestigious as this guy.

00:22:45.000 Yeah.

00:22:46.000 I forgot his name, but I think his name was Nutt.

00:22:48.000 It was K-N-U-T. 1.00

00:22:50.000 Can you look that up?

00:22:51.000 Yeah, it was some Swedish guy, right?

00:22:52.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:22:52.000 Yeah.

00:22:53.000 So why would YouTube ban that?

00:22:55.000 Why would YouTube shadow ban my video?

00:22:57.000 I'm like, these things are happening.

00:22:58.000 I'm not making them up.

00:22:59.000 CBS reported this.

00:23:00.000 Why would you ban me from talking about it?

00:23:02.000 In fact, you got CBS on your platform talking about it.

00:23:05.000 So I wonder, I wonder if YouTube only started doing this because they were scared of the press and the negative press they were getting, so something else might happen.

00:23:14.000 YouTube may be doing this out of fear, because the advertisers react to the bad press from the activists in press.

00:23:19.000 Probably.

00:23:20.000 So when Joe Rogan goes on Spotify, and Spotify has a guaranteed contract and won't take the podcast down, YouTube might say to the press when the press complains, it's on Spotify.

00:23:30.000 What are you mad at us for?

00:23:31.000 It's an exclusive deal with Spotify, but you're hosting it like Spotify's hosting it.

00:23:35.000 And promoting it!

00:23:36.000 And then that's the defense YouTube might have.

00:23:38.000 Hey, don't look at us.

00:23:39.000 We're not the one who signed the exclusive deal on how he's doing it.

00:23:41.000 So that might actually pressure YouTube into going back towards supporting more free speech.

00:23:48.000 I sure hope so.

00:23:50.000 Yeah?

00:23:50.000 It reminds me of this tweet that I have got pulled up here.

00:23:53.000 I can't show you guys, it's on my computer, but it's basically comparing the immune system to our mental... Drop it in the document, I'll pull it up.

00:24:01.000 Alright, let's see.

00:24:02.000 And then we'll keep explaining it and then I'll... Well, I mean, it's just a simple sentence.

00:24:07.000 It's just basically our immune systems need to handle different viruses and diseases to get stronger.

00:24:12.000 Same with our intellectual defenses.

00:24:14.000 Like we need to be exposed to good ideas and bad ideas to know what a good

00:24:18.000 idea is and what a bad idea is.

00:24:20.000 It's kind of like the same thing.

00:24:21.000 So if they're only getting rid of all these things that they consider bad and

00:24:26.000 all this is good, but we're going to keep all of this, it's just pushing people to

00:24:30.000 the, I don't want to say stupid people, but like people, I mean, it feels like

00:24:35.000 everyone's fed up with this anyway, but there's a lot of people out there that

00:24:39.000 are only going to believe what they see on YouTube, what's still allowed to be there,

00:24:44.000 What they don't understand is that the reason people are really into, say, Plandemic, and the reason why people are torching 5G towers is because, partly, of their censorship.

00:24:55.000 Are you familiar with the Galman Amnesia Effect?

00:24:59.000 I think I've told you about it before.

00:25:00.000 Sounds familiar.

00:25:02.000 Enlighten us.

00:25:02.000 Yes.

00:25:03.000 It's a fake name that was made by some guy because it was a joke about sounding legit.

00:25:08.000 The idea is that if you're an expert skateboarder, You open up a magazine or a newspaper or you open a news article and it says, the skateboarder did a whirly bird down a down a down a flue bowl.

00:25:20.000 And you're like, those aren't things.

00:25:21.000 What is this?

00:25:22.000 This is nonsense.

00:25:22.000 Yeah.

00:25:23.000 Because you're an expert, you can clearly see the nonsense.

00:25:26.000 And you say, this is fake news.

00:25:27.000 Yes.

00:25:27.000 Okay.

00:25:28.000 But then you turn the page and it's a story about Syria.

00:25:30.000 And they say, you know, Syrian dictator bombed kids.

00:25:32.000 And you go, wow, I didn't know that.

00:25:35.000 You've immediately forgotten that this paper is publishing fake news because you trust the other stuff you're not an expert in.

00:25:41.000 Right.

00:25:42.000 Yeah.

00:25:43.000 That makes sense.

00:25:44.000 But I do appreciate you saying expert skateboard and pointing to me.

00:25:47.000 Yes!

00:25:48.000 I appreciate that.

00:25:49.000 So I bring that up for a specific reason.

00:25:53.000 When people see the New York Times lie, Defend Joe Biden.

00:25:57.000 Yeah.

00:25:57.000 You know, any sane, rational person who reads the news saw the New York Times repeatedly defend the Christine Blasey Ford who accused Brett Kavanaugh.

00:26:05.000 And then when this accuser came out against Joe Biden, defend Joe Biden.

00:26:05.000 Yeah.

00:26:09.000 The double standard was palpable.

00:26:11.000 So now that they don't trust the mainstream media, they turn to independent commentary.

00:26:11.000 Yeah.

00:26:15.000 And then YouTube shuts it down.

00:26:16.000 What's the first thing they think?

00:26:18.000 The establishment is protecting itself.

00:26:20.000 This must be true.

00:26:21.000 Otherwise, they wouldn't hide it from us.

00:26:22.000 And that's not the case.

00:26:22.000 Exactly.

00:26:25.000 Well, not necessarily.

00:26:26.000 It could be true, but not guaranteed.

00:26:30.000 They're not censoring it because it's true, and they're scared of you learning the truth.

00:26:35.000 They're censoring it because it is the mainstream narrative that's safe for their advertisers.

00:26:41.000 So when Amazon banned the sale of masks or something, they removed masks.

00:26:48.000 Then Fauci said, don't wear a mask.

00:26:50.000 Masks are bad.

00:26:52.000 I can't tell you how many messages I got from people saying, dude, get your masks quick.

00:26:55.000 And I'm like, they're doing the opposite of what they were advised to do.

00:26:58.000 And it's funny because now they're saying, get your masks or else or else we'll arrest you.

00:27:02.000 It's the stupidest thing, man.

00:27:04.000 Get out of the store without a mask.

00:27:05.000 Get out.

00:27:06.000 Yeah.

00:27:07.000 There's a funny viral tweet where it's like the evolution of masks.

00:27:10.000 It's like, masks don't work.

00:27:12.000 If you wear them, you're killing your grandmother.

00:27:15.000 Then it said, like, don't buy masks.

00:27:16.000 The doctors and nurses need them.

00:27:18.000 Then it was like, masks don't really matter.

00:27:20.000 Then consider buying a mask.

00:27:22.000 Everyone must wear a mask if they go into a private business.

00:27:25.000 If you don't wear a mask outside, you'll be arrested.

00:27:26.000 It's like, what?

00:27:28.000 It's been quite the while, right?

00:27:29.000 Can you make up your mind, please?

00:27:30.000 Seriously, yes.

00:27:31.000 Make up your mind.

00:27:32.000 So people naturally don't believe it.

00:27:34.000 And then they go on YouTube, where they can see someone like me, and then they see someone like me get shadowbanned and censored.

00:27:41.000 So, it'll be interesting.

00:27:44.000 I wonder how much Alex Jones is making up.

00:27:50.000 Not in the sense of details, but showmanship.

00:27:53.000 Well, he is a showman.

00:27:54.000 Here's what I imagine.

00:27:55.000 Yeah.

00:27:55.000 Here's what I imagine.

00:27:57.000 I imagine Joe signs this deal.

00:27:58.000 Yeah.

00:27:59.000 And then he's thinking, look, the Alex Jones podcast with 17 million views.

00:28:03.000 So he calls up his, you know, his buddy Alex and says, Hey, what's up, buddy, man?

00:28:06.000 Um, I want to have you on the show, man.

00:28:08.000 It did really, really well last time you were on.

00:28:09.000 I'd love to have you on.

00:28:10.000 And then Alex was like, Oh, that, that sounds fantastic.

00:28:12.000 I'd love to be on it.

00:28:13.000 It's going to be okay.

00:28:14.000 And then, you know, Joe says something to the effect of, I cleared it with the Spotify contract I can have on whatever guest I want.

00:28:20.000 Nice.

00:28:20.000 Alex hears, I cleared it, that I can have you on.

00:28:23.000 You know what I mean?

00:28:24.000 So like, Joe may have said, you're all good, my contract says you can come on.

00:28:28.000 What it really says is they can't interfere with his guests.

00:28:30.000 Alex hears, I'm specifically in the contract.

00:28:32.000 Yeah.

00:28:33.000 And also hears, I'm doing whatever I want now because I'm no longer at YouTube and I got this contract with Spotify.

00:28:40.000 Right, or Joe says something like, you know, it was a good opportunity and I worry a bit about the censorship, I don't like how they're handling it.

00:28:52.000 And then what happens is Alex goes, You know, Joe says he's going to war, that he's refusing the censorship, and his contract specifically says I can be on, and it's actually much more simple, like, hey bud, how you doing?

00:29:04.000 You know, like, it's cool, my contract's great.

00:29:06.000 And then it becomes this article where the headline says Joe Rogan says he's going to war against Google because Alex Jones has exclusively revealed it.

00:29:14.000 It's like, wait for Joe Rogan to say something like that.

00:29:16.000 Right.

00:29:17.000 Not Alex Jones, who is a showman who rips his shirt off.

00:29:20.000 Who went on another person's show, didn't he?

00:29:22.000 He revealed it, not even on his own show, he went on someone else's show.

00:29:26.000 Yeah, he was on a podcast, yeah.

00:29:27.000 No, but that was, I think that was, is that Robert Barnes' show?

00:29:30.000 Yeah, I think so.

00:29:31.000 But that's still part of Jones' network, I'm pretty sure.

00:29:33.000 Oh, I have no idea.

00:29:34.000 Yeah, Jones.

00:29:35.000 Like, a lot of people don't realize banning Jones didn't do anything.

00:29:38.000 I mean, it did.

00:29:39.000 It definitely hurt his revenue because he was doing a lot of sales.

00:29:42.000 It definitely took him off of the mainstream social platforms.

00:29:46.000 But Alex Jones has been around for a long time, like syndicated radio shows.

00:29:51.000 I don't know a whole lot about how his show works, but I'm pretty sure he's on the radio.

00:29:54.000 Like, you can be in the middle of nowhere and turn on the radio and it's like, this is the Alex Jones program.

00:29:58.000 Then he comes on and he talks.

00:30:00.000 Oh, okay.

00:30:00.000 That's why when all of the, all the censorship stuff happened, I heard he didn't actually lose that much money.

00:30:06.000 And that's why he built a new site.

00:30:08.000 He's, he's, he's been doing his own, uh, video platform.

00:30:11.000 Yeah.

00:30:11.000 Like he just does his own thing.

00:30:13.000 Cause he's rich.

00:30:14.000 I was making a ridiculous amount of money.

00:30:16.000 Right on.

00:30:17.000 I don't know the exact number, but when they banned him, all that it really meant was he went and built his own infrastructure because he's rich and continues to be.

00:30:24.000 And was able to, yeah.

00:30:25.000 Yeah.

00:30:26.000 So here's what I'm hoping.

00:30:28.000 September 3rd, 4th, 5th, whatever, Joe starts having on more of these guests that YouTube hates, but it forces YouTube to maintain because he's got an alternative now.

00:30:37.000 This competition, man, it's market competition.

00:30:39.000 True.

00:30:39.000 So YouTube gets scared, like, if we censor these videos, everyone will ask Spotify for a deal.

00:30:45.000 And if they do it, I feel like they're just going to push more of Joe Rogan's fans out of YouTube.

00:30:51.000 Exactly.

00:30:52.000 So Spotify probably knows that.

00:30:53.000 Right.

00:30:54.000 It already feels like everyone's kind of fed up with YouTube.

00:30:57.000 So if they do make that choice, everyone's going to be like, you know what?

00:31:00.000 That's it.

00:31:01.000 The straw.

00:31:01.000 That's the one that broke my back.

00:31:03.000 I don't need you.

00:31:03.000 I'm out.

00:31:05.000 You know, Alex is doing fine without him.

00:31:06.000 Joe Rogan's going to do... People are saying he's going to like flop.

00:31:09.000 It's like, no, he's not.

00:31:10.000 He's going to continue doing what he's doing.

00:31:12.000 I don't think people realize Joe probably doesn't care.

00:31:16.000 He's good.

00:31:16.000 Yeah.

00:31:17.000 He's set up.

00:31:18.000 He's a famous comedian.

00:31:19.000 He's an MMA commentator.

00:31:20.000 He was at Netflix specials.

00:31:22.000 And he does the show the way he wants to do it.

00:31:23.000 Now he's got a deal that could be, you know, Wall Street Journal says $100 million plus over a multi-year contract.

00:31:28.000 Well, now he's going to do the show how he really wants to do it.

00:31:31.000 Without any restrictions.

00:31:32.000 I'm excited.

00:31:33.000 That's probably it.

00:31:34.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:31:34.000 Gloves are off.

00:31:35.000 That's what Alice Jones was saying.

00:31:35.000 I'm excited.

00:31:38.000 I think that might be it.

00:31:39.000 His show is going to be better now.

00:31:40.000 It's going to be epic.

00:31:41.000 Yeah.

00:31:42.000 Wow, dude, early days, early Rogan was crazy stuff.

00:31:47.000 And then things started to get, you know, like, dude, I just went on the Rogan podcast and I told him, you can't say this name.

00:31:52.000 That was probably like, you can't, you can't say it.

00:31:55.000 And he's like, write it down for me, write it down.

00:31:57.000 And then he was like, I don't even know who that is.

00:31:59.000 And I'm like, CIA whistleblower, you can't say it.

00:32:01.000 So why would you want to do that?

00:32:03.000 If a company came around and said, nah, you can say whatever you want.

00:32:06.000 Deal.

00:32:07.000 No more censorship.

00:32:08.000 No more self-censorship.

00:32:10.000 Guaranteed money.

00:32:11.000 Done.

00:32:12.000 Yeah, that sounds good.

00:32:13.000 YouTube.

00:32:14.000 There's an interesting problem YouTube's facing with this.

00:32:17.000 I remember I was talking to friends about this ten years ago.

00:32:21.000 There was a big channel, really really big, in like 2010.

00:32:26.000 And I was talking to some of the guys who hosted, I was at Tribeca Film Festival.

00:32:29.000 And this was like, I think this was like six years ago.

00:32:33.000 They said they used to get a million plus on every video, and they were making mad cash.

00:32:37.000 But then something happened and they started only getting a couple hundred thousand.

00:32:41.000 And I said, it's a few things.

00:32:43.000 In my opinion, it is saturation.

00:32:46.000 YouTube is getting way too many new creators.

00:32:50.000 And so every day you're competing with a bigger and bigger space.

00:32:53.000 That makes sense.

00:32:54.000 Less eyeballs to go around, right?

00:32:56.000 Early days of YouTube, you got 10 channels, but a billion people, everybody gets a lot of views.

00:32:56.000 That's true.

00:33:01.000 The other thing is, I was like, the content you make is silly.

00:33:05.000 and fun. And have you considered your demographic is aging out? And they didn't understand the

00:33:05.000 Yeah.

00:33:09.000 concept. Yeah. Like, what do you, what do you mean? Well, when you did that video of like,

00:33:14.000 I'm just making something up of like, you know, a guy dressed like a dinosaur jumping off of a

00:33:18.000 building into a pool. Yeah. 12 year olds laughed and all started watching it and you got a ton of

00:33:22.000 views. Right.

00:33:24.000 Now the people who've been following you there for five years, 30s or no, not another 20.

00:33:29.000 Yeah.

00:33:29.000 Oh, okay.

00:33:30.000 And now they want to talk about, you know, partying college drinking.

00:33:33.000 They're facing new challenges at college about student debt.

00:33:35.000 They're starting to ask questions and you're still dressing like a dinosaur and jumping in a swimming pool.

00:33:40.000 Now you could argue, but we would have attracted a new younger generation to replace it.

00:33:40.000 Yeah.

00:33:45.000 And I'm like, Snapchat.

00:33:48.000 It's TikTok.

00:33:49.000 Now it's TikTok.

00:33:50.000 I'm like, they're not on YouTube, bro.

00:33:51.000 It's like you captured them on that platform.

00:33:54.000 They are.

00:33:54.000 There's still a lot of young people on YouTube.

00:33:56.000 Right.

00:33:57.000 But you captured them when they came.

00:33:59.000 And now kids today who are joining YouTube are watching Minecraft.

00:34:01.000 You don't make Minecraft.

00:34:02.000 You make silly prank videos.

00:34:03.000 Yeah.

00:34:04.000 So the kids aren't watching that.

00:34:05.000 Your audience, your numbers are going down.

00:34:07.000 So I wonder, this is something that will affect YouTube across the board.

00:34:11.000 They need their content to be more mature as the young people who use YouTube grow up.

00:34:17.000 Most people, it's like, if you're older than 40, it's a sliding scale where it's like, 17-year-olds are up here using YouTube, and then they're like, 17s are way down here for television.

00:34:28.000 But it's inverted for 45-year-olds.

00:34:31.000 45-year-olds are up here for television and down here for YouTube.

00:34:34.000 But as those young people, and like, I'm sure, you know, the joke we made a couple days ago was that you're a 34-year-old male named John watching right now.

00:34:45.000 The people who, like, the largest faction of, like, the largest demographic for all of my content, including IRL, is, like, 30-year-old males.

00:34:55.000 Okay.

00:34:56.000 Where were these people 10 years ago?

00:34:57.000 What were they doing?

00:34:58.000 Watching different content.

00:34:59.000 Now it's politics.

00:35:00.000 Yeah.

00:35:00.000 Now it's the president.

00:35:01.000 Now it's, you know, censorship.

00:35:03.000 Yeah.

00:35:04.000 So those old channels aren't going to capture anymore.

00:35:06.000 That means if YouTube doesn't have a strong base of creators maturing along with the audience, they lose that entire audience.

00:35:13.000 And now that YouTube's been censoring channels like this, what do they have to attract people?

00:35:19.000 It's like I've been on YouTube for 10 years and now YouTube is just not fun to watch anymore.

00:35:24.000 Because the content I grew up with, the creators I was aligned with, who matured alongside me, can't talk about what they want to talk about anymore.

00:35:30.000 Yeah, people have been texting me about it.

00:35:32.000 Basically, YouTube itself is also changing in a different manner.

00:35:37.000 It's getting less and less the YouTube hole.

00:35:42.000 You used to go into a YouTube hole and find the craziest stuff, and now it's just half mainstream media and half whatever they want you to see.

00:35:53.000 And it's just not, it's not as fun and vast as it was once, you know?

00:35:58.000 Yeah, the press claimed that YouTube was a rabbit hole for extremism.

00:36:03.000 And they used the far right as their scapegoat, as their straw man.

00:36:07.000 Fundamentally not true.

00:36:08.000 Yeah.

00:36:09.000 And several studies, so there's never been, my understanding is that there hasn't been a real study proving it, but there have been studies disproving it.

00:36:17.000 There have been people who have claimed they did analysis proving it, but those are lies.

00:36:22.000 The ones, especially the ones that include me, that I debunk.

00:36:24.000 Yeah.

00:36:24.000 Because, you know, the way I explain to people, the media argues that if you watch a conservative video, then you'll naturally drift towards the far right.

00:36:32.000 That makes no sense.

00:36:33.000 Those are two different arguments.

00:36:34.000 It would be like saying, if you eat too much chocolate, eventually you'll like white chocolate.

00:36:38.000 It's like, they're different things.

00:36:40.000 Like they're both chocolate.

00:36:41.000 I get it.

00:36:42.000 So the argument was, you know, conservatives are anti-immigration, or anti-illegal immigration, and if you watch too much of that, eventually you'll oppose immigration outright.

00:36:51.000 No, that's not true.

00:36:52.000 Yeah, that doesn't make any sense.

00:36:53.000 Because conservatives have been arguing for controlled, metered immigration.

00:36:57.000 Right.

00:36:57.000 So if you watch their videos, you'll agree with them on, you know, I think, what does Trump say?

00:37:01.000 Like, everybody can come if they come legally?

00:37:02.000 Right.

00:37:03.000 That's very different from saying no immigration at all.

00:37:05.000 Yeah.

00:37:05.000 So the example I give to people is like, if you watched a bunch of Batman videos, would you all of a sudden be a Batman cultist dressing like Batman and running around your city?

00:37:14.000 I'm sure it happens.

00:37:18.000 I don't want to leave it out, but who knows?

00:37:21.000 I remember those days of YouTube, man, where you would type in like flat earth and then you'd get a whole bunch of the craziest, silliest videos and they were hilarious to watch.

00:37:29.000 They were kind of funny.

00:37:30.000 I don't believe the world is flat, but it's funny watching some guy go on this screed rant passionately about how he can prove it, and it's nonsense.

00:37:38.000 Yeah, especially when one of your friends believes in flat earth and makes you watch all of the videos.

00:37:43.000 Who's that?

00:37:44.000 I'm not going to say the name, but I'm talking to you, buddy.

00:37:47.000 He knows who he is.

00:37:48.000 I don't know who he's watching right now.

00:37:49.000 Maybe.

00:37:50.000 But he tried to convince me.

00:37:52.000 He put me, like, we sat and he's like, you gotta watch this video.

00:37:55.000 And I'm like, sure, show me.

00:37:57.000 All right, let's do this.

00:37:59.000 I'm just like, okay, where's the science there?

00:38:01.000 What about the science?

00:38:02.000 It's like, there's no, this is just a belief system.

00:38:05.000 And that's all it is, really.

00:38:06.000 I've watched, I recently watched, they're still on YouTube.

00:38:09.000 Yeah, they're still there, I'm sure.

00:38:10.000 I was watching one where the guy was like, just saying things.

00:38:13.000 Like, the sun is actually this big, therefore, this makes, like, this thing they've said about the blue dot in this photo makes no sense because the sun is actually only this big.

00:38:21.000 And I'm like, how do you know the sun is that big?

00:38:23.000 Like, just saying it doesn't prove anything.

00:38:26.000 Yeah, the whole the moon is the same size as the sun.

00:38:30.000 Yeah, and they just spin.

00:38:31.000 And it's just crazy.

00:38:33.000 It's the perfect ratio.

00:38:34.000 I think it's 10 times the moon.

00:38:37.000 It's like 100 times further than the moon, which is 10 times.

00:38:40.000 I don't know.

00:38:41.000 Some perfect ratio that they're the same size.

00:38:43.000 That's why the eclipses happen.

00:38:44.000 I don't know what it's called.

00:38:45.000 It's cool.

00:38:46.000 It's not an idiom or something.

00:38:47.000 It's like a parable, maybe, of the puddle.

00:38:51.000 Maybe parable is the right word.

00:38:52.000 Basically, there's a puddle on the ground.

00:38:55.000 Looking around at the shape of the hole that he's in and he says, this is amazing.

00:39:02.000 This puddle was perfectly made for me.

00:39:04.000 It fits me very, very perfectly.

00:39:06.000 Not realizing that he actually fits the hole.

00:39:10.000 So people look at the earth and all of the things in the solar system and they're like, how could this be possible that we just happen to be on this planet with all these perfect things?

00:39:10.000 You understand?

00:39:10.000 Yeah.

00:39:18.000 And it's like, out of all of the billions and trillions of planets and stars and whatever, we are here because this is the one with the perfect things.

00:39:25.000 Yep.

00:39:25.000 Not the other way around.

00:39:26.000 That's, that's it.

00:39:27.000 But, but, but, but back to the point about YouTube.

00:39:29.000 Right.

00:39:30.000 Do you ever do like a Wikipedia bender? 0.94

00:39:32.000 Sometimes.

00:39:33.000 I have, yeah.

00:39:35.000 You go on Wikipedia, you read stuff.

00:39:37.000 It's like, however it happens, you'll read an article and it'll say, like, the California deal of, you know, 1853.

00:39:42.000 And you're like, I wonder what that is.

00:39:43.000 And you'll click it and you'll be reading a story about, like, some oil tycoon who, like, sold off his gold fortune to, like, start an oil company.

00:39:50.000 And then you're like, how did the oil barons, you know, come to be?

00:39:50.000 Yeah.

00:39:53.000 And then you start reading like crazy.

00:39:54.000 And then it's 2 a.m.

00:39:55.000 Yeah, this has happened.

00:39:56.000 And it's fun.

00:39:57.000 And YouTube used to be like that.

00:40:00.000 Now it's like you go on YouTube and do a search for something and you get Fox and CBS and you're like, this is really awful.

00:40:07.000 Yeah.

00:40:08.000 It's not just about the mainstream.

00:40:11.000 It's about how they specifically do not cater to YouTube's core user base or the internet at all.

00:40:18.000 Yeah, that's exactly right.

00:40:19.000 You nailed it.

00:40:20.000 If you watch a segment on, you know, CBS, I'm using them on purpose because they're not Fox News or MSNBC, they're going to be like, today Donald Trump spoke briefly in front of the press corps talking about the Obamagate theory.

00:40:33.000 Donald Trump says that Michael Flynn was spied on.

00:40:36.000 Jim?

00:40:36.000 And it's like, you turn it on and you just listen to it.

00:40:40.000 If you come to a regular YouTuber, they're gonna be like, what's up guys, comment below, I saw what you said the other day, here's what I think, here's the story, and it's much more personal, it's much more interactive, designed for the platform.

00:40:52.000 YouTube's been moving away from all that.

00:40:54.000 Because of the bad press.

00:40:55.000 We're here to bring it back.

00:40:57.000 Talking to you guys.

00:40:58.000 Yeah, but I mean somewhat.

00:41:00.000 True.

00:41:00.000 Because we get suppressed too.

00:41:01.000 Yeah.

00:41:02.000 Depending on whatever we talk about, it's like, if we end up talking about something political, then the only recommendations will be Fox News.

00:41:10.000 Even remotely, you know?

00:41:11.000 Yeah.

00:41:12.000 And then they start associating my name with politics, so then if you put my name in it, they're like, there's politics.

00:41:17.000 And it negatively impacts, like, so, they ended up with all these smear pieces, YouTube panicked, and then destroyed their website.

00:41:25.000 You know, it could be that, you know, YouTube basically got an arrow right through its heart last year in May when they changed the algorithm.

00:41:35.000 And it's a slow bleed out.

00:41:38.000 So YouTube could be dead already.

00:41:39.000 I mean, Joe Rogan's leaving.

00:41:41.000 Well, it's interesting how that whole hiccup that happened.

00:41:45.000 Was it earlier this week?

00:41:46.000 Was it on Monday?

00:41:47.000 Hiccup?

00:41:47.000 Yeah, we were trying to get the studio to work and YouTube was out.

00:41:52.000 People were tweeting us like, yo, YouTube's not working.

00:41:55.000 And we were like, what is going on?

00:41:56.000 It's not loading.

00:41:57.000 And then all of a sudden, all the video recommendations were changed and were different.

00:42:01.000 Is that what happened?

00:42:02.000 Yeah.

00:42:03.000 Yeah, definitely.

00:42:04.000 I noticed it after that point.

00:42:06.000 I mean, this is just my view.

00:42:09.000 Yeah, we're getting like the non-corporate videos again.

00:42:12.000 We're getting Tim Pool videos.

00:42:13.000 People have been saying that.

00:42:14.000 People sent me a tweet with a picture of two of your videos, the same video, on the front page, right next to each other.

00:42:22.000 Both of them were identical, same exact video.

00:42:24.000 It's good news.

00:42:24.000 I was like, okay.

00:42:26.000 And suddenly Joe Rogan's like, by the way, I'm leaving YouTube.

00:42:30.000 The same day, actually.

00:42:32.000 I think he announced it.

00:42:34.000 But YouTube obviously knew already.

00:42:36.000 You know, they probably knew something.

00:42:38.000 So they're probably sweating.

00:42:39.000 They're probably sweating like, man, we got to change this because we're going to lose

00:42:45.000 the internet, essentially.

00:42:46.000 If what Alex Jones is saying is true, it alludes to the fact that Joe Rogan did talk to Google

00:42:56.000 specifically about his guests.

00:42:58.000 So what did Alex Jones say?

00:43:01.000 That Joe said he wants to interview doctors and experts.

00:43:06.000 Uh, and was told by YouTube they would not allow such content on their platforms.

00:43:09.000 That means Rogan was talking to YouTube, that I would then assume YouTube was aware of this deal.

00:43:09.000 Exactly.

00:43:16.000 Exactly.

00:43:17.000 That's what I'm saying.

00:43:18.000 Here's what I'm thinking.

00:43:20.000 I'm not gonna speak for Joe, I don't know.

00:43:22.000 But I'll tell you what I would do.

00:43:24.000 I'll tell you what I've done.

00:43:25.000 When a company comes to me and says, Mr. Poole, we'd like to do an exclusive deal with you, I say, how much?

00:43:31.000 And they give me a number, and then I say, I want to be able to do these things.

00:43:34.000 And they'll say, well, we can't do that, but we can do these.

00:43:36.000 I say, OK, let me call you back.

00:43:37.000 You know what the first thing I do is?

00:43:39.000 I call their competitor.

00:43:40.000 And I say, I just got a phone call from this company, and they're offering me these things.

00:43:43.000 Are you interested?

00:43:44.000 That's X, Y, and Z. What are you going to do?

00:43:46.000 And so I actually, for the sake of other people's privacy, I'll be vague about this, but back when I was, before I joined Vice, it's exactly what I did.

00:43:58.000 So I got one offer from one company, one offer from another company, and then I went straight to Vice.

00:44:03.000 I went to Vice and I was like, yo, look at these offers, what do you got?

00:44:07.000 And then Vice was like, hmm.

00:44:09.000 And Vice was smarter than me, you know what they did?

00:44:11.000 They went to the other companies and went, he's ours now, what are you gonna give us?

00:44:11.000 I don't know.

00:44:15.000 You should have left the company names out of the, you know, redact them from the documents.

00:44:22.000 It wasn't any documents.

00:44:23.000 It was just like I went, I knew some people there and I went and talked and I said, right now I've got, you know, an offer from this company and an offer from this company.

00:44:30.000 But to be honest, I'd rather come to you guys if you can offer something comparable.

00:44:33.000 And so then I'm thinking I'm smart.

00:44:36.000 It's smart business.

00:44:37.000 I'm leveraging the competition against each other.

00:44:39.000 And so Vice was just like, I didn't learn this until later.

00:44:39.000 Right.

00:44:44.000 That they said, okay, absolutely we'll hire you.

00:44:47.000 And I said, here's what I want.

00:44:48.000 Can you beat them?

00:44:49.000 And they were like, absolutely.

00:44:50.000 And they vice gave me like carte blanche.

00:44:53.000 They were like, you'll do whatever you want.

00:44:54.000 Here's how much we're going to pay you.

00:44:55.000 And it wasn't that much relative to other companies, but I was like, I get to host all these things.

00:44:59.000 I get to do what I want.

00:45:00.000 And then sure enough, they went like basically right away to one of these other companies and said, now that he's here, we want you to do a deal with us if you want access to his content.

00:45:11.000 At the time I had been doing groundbreaking live stream stuff.

00:45:14.000 Making that money back that they were now paying you.

00:45:17.000 More! 0.72

00:45:17.000 Oh dude, they made like a hundred times. 0.72

00:45:20.000 It was a brilliant move.

00:45:22.000 But hey, it worked out for everybody.

00:45:23.000 I got what I wanted, they got what they wanted.

00:45:25.000 They were able to monetize off it.

00:45:26.000 So here's what I'm thinking.

00:45:28.000 I'm thinking this claim, if it's true, that he went to YouTube and they wouldn't allow content on their platforms, it sounds like he went to Spotify.

00:45:36.000 Probably Spotify contacts Joe.

00:45:38.000 We want you to do a deal.

00:45:39.000 He says, okay, let me talk to YouTube.

00:45:41.000 He goes to YouTube and says, will you do an exclusivity deal with me because Spotify is making an offer?

00:45:45.000 And they say, yes.

00:45:46.000 And then he says, I want these guests.

00:45:48.000 They said, no.

00:45:49.000 And he went, bye-bye.

00:45:50.000 Okay, I'm leaving then.

00:45:51.000 That's a maybe.

00:45:52.000 I don't know for sure.

00:45:52.000 I mean, that's, it sounds right.

00:45:56.000 I don't know if YouTube would care for the exclusivity deal.

00:45:56.000 It makes sense.

00:45:58.000 And he's keeping his clip channel up.

00:46:01.000 If that's true, it suggests that there won't necessarily be a big anti-censorship.

00:46:06.000 You know, movement when he when he moves to Spotify.

00:46:08.000 Yeah.

00:46:09.000 But I don't think it has to be coordinated.

00:46:11.000 If Joe wants doctors on and as soon as he's officially on Spotify, he'll have the doctors on.

00:46:17.000 Yep.

00:46:18.000 And it's going to be it's going to be huge for him.

00:46:20.000 Yeah, I can't wait for him to have those doctors that got removed, the ones from California that were talking about it.

00:46:25.000 They were basically just explaining the immune system and talking about having a healthy one versus a not healthy one, going outside, staying inside.

00:46:32.000 Staying inside weakens your immune system.

00:46:34.000 That's all they were saying.

00:46:36.000 It wasn't even that crazy, but they deleted it.

00:46:38.000 You see that photo of the guy who's super ripped?

00:46:40.000 Yeah.

00:46:41.000 And then six weeks later, he's super thin.

00:46:43.000 But he had the coronavirus, right?

00:46:44.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:46:45.000 So it ravages his body, basically.

00:46:46.000 Well, no, it was being in bed for six weeks.

00:46:49.000 Not eating, not working out.

00:46:51.000 It was, yeah.

00:46:52.000 I mean, he looked in good shape still.

00:46:53.000 He was just thin.

00:46:54.000 He looked...

00:46:55.000 He had a feeding tube.

00:46:57.000 You can see it there inside of his stomach, which is a horrible way to get nutrition.

00:47:00.000 That's not how you're supposed to eat and it should be temporary.

00:47:03.000 So he's laying in bed for six weeks, withering away.

00:47:05.000 Yeah.

00:47:06.000 Think about what you're doing locked in your house.

00:47:08.000 How many people aren't getting exercise, aren't eating bad?

00:47:11.000 There's memes about this where they're like, there's two kinds of people.

00:47:15.000 And then like, it's a video of some dude doing like prison workouts.

00:47:18.000 And then the other person is sitting there with their gut hanging out, like mustard from their corn dog dripping on their belly.

00:47:23.000 A lot of people got limited exercise, getting up and walking around every day, going out to work, walking to lunch, sitting around doing nothing now.

00:47:30.000 And being sedentary is going to result in them getting, you know, sick or hurt.

00:47:34.000 Exactly.

00:47:35.000 Which brings us to a good segue to what's going on with COVID then, I guess.

00:47:40.000 I guess, yeah.

00:47:40.000 So we can move off of the YouTube stuff, but now let's talk about contact tracing.

00:47:44.000 So this is freaking everybody out.

00:47:47.000 Yeah, this is a little creepy, man.

00:47:49.000 Apple releases iOS 13.5 with COVID-19 contact tracing feature face ID improvements.

00:47:57.000 Can we stop and think about the absurdity of these phones right now?

00:48:01.000 For the longest time we were scared and we still are of facial recognition technology.

00:48:05.000 So what do they do?

00:48:06.000 They put it in our phones.

00:48:07.000 And now everybody's like, look, I can hold my phone up to my face and it opens.

00:48:10.000 I'm like, you realize it's a terrible security, right?

00:48:13.000 Like, if you have a password, they can lock, they'll handcuff you to a chair and be like, give me the password or else!

00:48:18.000 And you're like, never!

00:48:19.000 And you spit in his face.

00:48:21.000 Now they just hold the phone up to your face.

00:48:22.000 And they walk away.

00:48:22.000 Thanks.

00:48:23.000 They hold it up to a picture of you.

00:48:24.000 Seriously, that's all you have to do.

00:48:27.000 That's why I didn't set that lock on my phone.

00:48:27.000 I've tried it.

00:48:30.000 I was like, no way.

00:48:31.000 That's funny.

00:48:32.000 It's a terrible security function.

00:48:34.000 And so now they're going to be rolling out contact tracing.

00:48:37.000 For those that aren't familiar what it means is they want to be able to know who came into contact with who.

00:48:42.000 So if we have these things on our phones, they can pull up a map of everyone we've interacted with.

00:48:48.000 I'm reading through the update that they're asking me to do right now.

00:48:51.000 So yeah, so here, let's do this.

00:48:52.000 I haven't seen anything yet.

00:48:53.000 Well done.

00:48:54.000 There's all sorts of different things here.

00:48:55.000 You want to hold it up?

00:48:57.000 I mean, I'm just... Well, yeah, but let's see if we can show it.

00:48:59.000 Well, I haven't found anything yet.

00:49:02.000 There's, like, camera and photos stuff, and, like, maps is being updated, Siri... Let's see if Siri's got anything.

00:49:09.000 No, there's a lot that's being updated.

00:49:11.000 It's like 150 different things.

00:49:13.000 Oh my gosh.

00:49:14.000 I'm like searching through it all.

00:49:15.000 Just slip it in there.

00:49:16.000 It's too much.

00:49:17.000 I'm sorry, what?

00:49:18.000 They just slipped it in there.

00:49:20.000 Well, maybe.

00:49:21.000 I don't know if it's this update or if it's a future update.

00:49:24.000 Is that 13.5 it's showing you?

00:49:26.000 Let's see.

00:49:27.000 The one I've seen shows the... It's iOS 13.

00:49:30.000 Not point anything.

00:49:31.000 Oh, so you're way behind.

00:49:34.000 Maybe I am.

00:49:35.000 Oh no, I'm on 13.5.

00:49:36.000 Oh no, it is 13.5.

00:49:36.000 You're right.

00:49:39.000 At the top, it should say the summary of what it is.

00:49:42.000 Let's see, I'll read it.

00:49:44.000 iOS 13 introduces a dramatic new look for iPhone with dark mode, new ways to browse and edit photos, and a private new way to sign in to apps and websites with just a tap.

00:49:54.000 iOS 13 is faster and more responsive with optimizations across the system that improve app launch, reduce app download sizes, and make Face ID even faster.

00:50:04.000 Well, my phone doesn't have Face ID because I'm a little... I think it's a 7 or I don't even know what phone this is, but... But they didn't say anything about that, though.

00:50:11.000 Maybe it's because you have an older phone.

00:50:13.000 Yeah, maybe I don't have the ability for them to trace me.

00:50:17.000 That would be good.

00:50:17.000 Yes, I would like that.

00:50:18.000 Here's what they say over at ZDNet.

00:50:22.000 They say, Apple also included a new COVID exposure notification feature in iOS 13.5 on iPhone.

00:50:28.000 The feature is part of Apple and Google's previously announced partnership that enables a contact tracing API for health officials to build apps and use to fight the spread of COVID-19.

00:50:37.000 It provides an anonymous way to alert others you've come in contact with over the last 14 days should you contract COVID-19 and test positive, as well as a means for you to be alerted if someone you've been in contact with has tested positive.

00:50:49.000 We have a complete breakdown of how the feature works, blah blah blah.

00:50:52.000 The feature is found in Settings, Privacy, Health, COVID-19 Exposure Logging.

00:50:56.000 Until you install an approved app from a public health authority, the feature will remain turned off.

00:51:01.000 We're unaware of any apps that work with the API at the moment, but now that the update is out, we expect it to change.

00:51:06.000 Okay, that's a stupid question.

00:51:07.000 Whoa, whoa, whoa, New York Times.

00:51:08.000 It's a little biased for you to insert, I suppose.

00:51:10.000 No, but they're right, though.

00:51:11.000 Yeah, they're totally right.

00:51:12.000 Here's what we see in China.

00:51:14.000 In coronavirus fight, China gives citizens a color code with red flags.

00:51:17.000 A new system uses software to dictate quarantines and appears to send personal data to police

00:51:23.000 in a troubling precedent for automated social control.

00:51:25.000 Whoa, whoa, whoa, New York Times.

00:51:27.000 It's a little biased for you to insert, I suppose.

00:51:30.000 No, but they're right, though.

00:51:31.000 Yeah, they're totally right.

00:51:32.000 Well, hold on.

00:51:33.000 The New York Times said it.

00:51:34.000 What's the date on this?

00:51:35.000 March 1st.

00:51:37.000 On March 1st, the New York Times said, a troubling precedent for automated social control.

00:51:42.000 And now, a couple months later, Apple's rolling out its new feature, contact tracing, so you can track who you've touched.

00:51:48.000 Convenient.

00:51:49.000 There's been conversations about us getting apps just like this with a color code.

00:51:54.000 The way it works in China, my understanding is, if you're in a city and you're cleared, you get a green QR.

00:52:00.000 When you want to enter a building, they scan your code to make sure you're cleared.

00:52:03.000 But if you leave the city or the specific area, it turns red.

00:52:07.000 It no longer works.

00:52:08.000 And then you've got to get retested or something.

00:52:11.000 Or quarantine again or some ridiculous thing.

00:52:14.000 So a lot of people are sharing this update and I think you don't have anything to worry about with the update.

00:52:20.000 No.

00:52:20.000 I think you should be fine to update.

00:52:22.000 The problem comes when- I'm not finding anything.

00:52:25.000 Public buildings or something where the government says if you want to enter the post office, a school, you have to have our app.

00:52:31.000 And that means you got to update. So it's not the update.

00:52:33.000 It's the what do they call it? What did the article say in the from a from an authority when

00:52:33.000 It's the problem.

00:52:39.000 a public health authority, the feature will remain unless you install an approved app

00:52:45.000 from a public health authority. What does that mean?

00:52:49.000 Does that mean Apple and Google have decided to do this just on their own, hoping the government, you know, approves of some specific app that's going to allow them to track who you've touched and talked to?

00:52:58.000 Well, yesterday you said, if the school said, you can't have your kid go to the school without the vaccination, you'd be okay with it, right?

00:53:06.000 Absolutely.

00:53:07.000 So it's almost in line with it.

00:53:09.000 The government's going to be like, if you want to use these government programs, you have to have this app.

00:53:13.000 And it's like, it's just going to make more programs that aren't run by the government appear.

00:53:18.000 Unless they say, if you want to go to the DMV, you have to have the app.

00:53:23.000 See, that's where it's like forced.

00:53:25.000 Right.

00:53:25.000 So you need to be able to, if you drive, people are going to be riding bikes.

00:53:29.000 Look at what Dershowitz said the other day.

00:53:33.000 That, you know, maybe what we'll do is we'll lock you in your home unless you want to get the vaccine.

00:53:37.000 Oh, what a good idea.

00:53:37.000 No, he didn't say lock you in, but you have the right to stay in your home unless you want to come out and then you need to be vaccinated, which is... And they can drag you to a doctor.

00:53:46.000 Basically the same thing.

00:53:48.000 Yeah.

00:53:48.000 It's like, come on.

00:53:49.000 So we're like China.

00:53:50.000 We're getting there.

00:53:51.000 I wonder if this is all panic.

00:53:53.000 And I think it really is.

00:53:54.000 I think you've got, for the most part, Democratic governors, power hungry, but also scared.

00:54:01.000 They do not want to take the blame for this if things go bad.

00:54:04.000 Then you got the Republican governors who are like, eh, leave it open.

00:54:07.000 Notably Kristi Noem and Ron DeSantis, South Dakota and Florida.

00:54:10.000 And so you have these Democratic governors who want the power and they see the opportunity to seize the power, they take it.

00:54:16.000 And someone actually pointed out to me on Twitter earlier today that a lot of those Democratic governors aren't up for reelection this year.

00:54:24.000 Really?

00:54:24.000 Yeah.

00:54:25.000 Like California, Michigan, where else?

00:54:28.000 New Jersey, New York.

00:54:30.000 But their re-elections will come later.

00:54:31.000 Yeah, later, after it all blows over and maybe the people... They're hoping people forget.

00:54:36.000 Yep, exactly.

00:54:37.000 I don't think so.

00:54:37.000 But they don't have to worry about leaving right now.

00:54:39.000 They're like, whatever, we're going to lock it down because we can.

00:54:43.000 You know, we're going to change rules that have nothing to do with this because we can.

00:54:46.000 Take the super chips.

00:54:47.000 Oh yeah.

00:54:48.000 Alright, you know what?

00:54:49.000 We're going to go to Super Chats.

00:54:51.000 Tim is getting an important phone call.

00:54:52.000 Tim is taking a call.

00:54:53.000 I'm going to jump into this.

00:54:55.000 Heck yeah.

00:54:56.000 You know what?

00:54:56.000 I kind of want to sit in Adam's chair.

00:54:58.000 Alright, AdamCast IRL coming to you live.

00:55:00.000 Perfect.

00:55:02.000 So, I mean, this Apple thing, honestly, I don't mind my phone not being updated because as long as my phone works, I don't care.

00:55:11.000 As long as I can still play the one game that I use my phone for, I'm fine with it.

00:55:16.000 I had a Samsung S3 for like eight years.

00:55:19.000 It's fantastic.

00:55:20.000 I never, I didn't need to upgrade it until I got here and I was like, I have to get a new phone.

00:55:24.000 I really have to.

00:55:24.000 It doesn't do the stuff I need it to do.

00:55:26.000 Yeah.

00:55:26.000 But yeah, if it works, it works.

00:55:28.000 Well, I mean, they, see, they're probably monitoring who's on his phone call right now because they can, you know, and that's a scary premise.

00:55:36.000 I really hope that doesn't happen though.

00:55:37.000 So we're gonna go to Super Chats.

00:55:39.000 Let's do it.

00:55:39.000 Because Tim's obviously busy right now.

00:55:41.000 So I'm gonna go to Super Chats.

00:55:44.000 What's up everybody?

00:55:45.000 So I gotta just say thanks everybody for showing up.

00:55:47.000 This might be the biggest show that we've ever had.

00:55:50.000 This is our biggest night.

00:55:51.000 Yeah, thank you.

00:55:51.000 You guys are awesome.

00:55:52.000 I really appreciate you guys all hanging out with us tonight.

00:55:55.000 On a Thursday too.

00:55:56.000 Yeah, this might be the biggest show.

00:55:58.000 So we'll just jump into Super Chats.

00:56:00.000 Yeah, let's go.

00:56:01.000 I didn't hear that they did that.

00:56:02.000 But didn't they do that with Star Wars?

00:56:03.000 censored Back to the Future 2. It's stupid but scary that we could lose

00:56:07.000 movies the way we remember them as to not offend. I didn't hear that they did

00:56:12.000 that but didn't didn't they do that with Star Wars? The first Star Wars? I don't

00:56:17.000 They tried to re-edit it.

00:56:20.000 Han Solo shot first.

00:56:22.000 You guys know what I'm talking about, right?

00:56:23.000 They tried to change it.

00:56:24.000 No, they did change it.

00:56:25.000 Oh, they did?

00:56:25.000 Yeah, they did.

00:56:26.000 They changed it so the bounty hunter that was coming after Han Solo shot first.

00:56:33.000 He shot him, but in the original edit, Han Solo shot him in advance, and it was awesome.

00:56:39.000 It just made the movie so much more cool.

00:56:42.000 Like, it was cool in my head.

00:56:44.000 I really liked it.

00:56:44.000 I don't know.

00:56:44.000 Retrofitting history.

00:56:45.000 What did they change in Back to the Future 2?

00:56:47.000 What did they change about it?

00:56:48.000 I don't know.

00:56:49.000 I'll have to read about it.

00:56:50.000 That sucks, though.

00:56:51.000 Anyway, Josh in Jesus says, Tim... Well, he's not here, but I'll just say it.

00:56:56.000 Adam, think any chance of getting a constitutional president in 2024?

00:57:01.000 Also, did you get my email?

00:57:02.000 P.S.

00:57:03.000 Still think you should consider moving to Madison?

00:57:06.000 You know, I've actually been to Madison.

00:57:08.000 I'm also from Chicago.

00:57:09.000 I don't know if you knew that, but unfortunately, I don't know if I can answer these questions.

00:57:13.000 I really would love a constitutional president, someone that actually believes in our Constitution.

00:57:18.000 Although, it seems Trump pretty much does.

00:57:21.000 I don't know about, you know, the whole political realm.

00:57:24.000 I'm still getting my feet wet, you know, so Tim is definitely the expert on that sense.

00:57:30.000 Jack's ISF says, red states are reopening and the economy is rebounding.

00:57:34.000 Blue states are taking totalitarian measures beyond flattening the curve. 0.87

00:57:40.000 How can this be anything more than political maneuvering?

00:57:42.000 I 100% agree.

00:57:44.000 100% agree.

00:57:45.000 Yeah.

00:57:45.000 You know, the red states are, and we just kind of talked about a little bit, the blue states, these governors aren't up for reelection.

00:57:51.000 They're just power hungry.

00:57:53.000 I didn't realize that.

00:57:54.000 They're going nuts.

00:57:55.000 It's just like, what are you guys doing?

00:57:57.000 They're kicking businesses out.

00:57:59.000 Well, not kicking.

00:58:00.000 They're losing businesses.

00:58:01.000 They're shooting themselves in the foot.

00:58:03.000 Tesla is probably going to be leaving to Texas.

00:58:05.000 I don't know if that's confirmed or not, but Elon Musk has basically made it seem like he's pretty much fed up with California.

00:58:13.000 We'll see what happens there.

00:58:15.000 Kyle Buchanan says, So Tim, you say you want to move.

00:58:18.000 Why does it have to be the East Coast?

00:58:20.000 Oklahoma just passed an alcohol delivery.

00:58:24.000 Well, actually, it's funny.

00:58:25.000 I got whiskey delivered like a month ago.

00:58:27.000 And it was, I got like four bottles of whiskey, really good stuff.

00:58:33.000 Random thought.

00:58:33.000 So we do have that here.

00:58:35.000 And he does want to be on the East Coast for the time.

00:58:38.000 You know, he gets up and there's a schedule that he has.

00:58:41.000 He does the news.

00:58:43.000 So I think that has something to do with it.

00:58:44.000 He was saying that something like 70% of the U.S.

00:58:47.000 is on East Coast time.

00:58:48.000 I think that's really what he was going for.

00:58:50.000 Oh, okay.

00:58:51.000 Well, and it also makes sense that, you know, he's up and looking at the news and is ahead of everything, you know, so he's right off the bat, he knows what's going down and is making videos before the people on the West Coast.

00:59:06.000 Ryan Jones says, Hey Tim, with your business expanding, check out North Carolina.

00:59:10.000 Scanner has been to Asheville and the Research Triangle and Wilmington, a gem on the coast.

00:59:17.000 We like our liberty and we don't trust our politicians.

00:59:20.000 You know, I've been to North Carolina and I really like North Carolina.

00:59:23.000 It's a really pretty place.

00:59:25.000 I have good memories there.

00:59:27.000 Ultra Lesbian says, What's up gamers? 1.00

00:59:29.000 I'm assuming you're talking to me.

00:59:32.000 Although Tim has been a gamer in the past, he doesn't game as much as he used to because he is a workaholic and works harder than anyone I know.

00:59:41.000 All Metal Mike says, Whoa, I just got a major jump.

00:59:44.000 I have a feeling that's going to happen.

00:59:47.000 Because big show.

00:59:48.000 Yeah, let's see here.

00:59:50.000 Where we go.

00:59:51.000 All Metal Mike.

00:59:52.000 Will YouTube replace Tim Pool with Sim Pool?

00:59:56.000 Maybe.

00:59:57.000 Maybe.

00:59:57.000 If he starts blinking really oddly or his beanie's like in some sort of... if it's like a different color beanie, you know something's up.

01:00:05.000 Yeah.

01:00:05.000 You know?

01:00:05.000 So pay attention to the beanie.

01:00:10.000 Johan Oldman says, here it is again, yet it stings like the first time.

01:00:15.000 All right.

01:00:16.000 I don't know what you're talking about, but... It's from a song.

01:00:18.000 I just can't place the song.

01:00:19.000 My bad.

01:00:20.000 Is it from your show?

01:00:21.000 Possibly.

01:00:22.000 Oh, it is!

01:00:22.000 Oh my gosh, you're right, it's Alkaline Trio.

01:00:24.000 How did I know that?

01:00:25.000 I don't know any Alkaline Trio songs.

01:00:27.000 I'm sorry, I didn't catch it.

01:00:28.000 I was thinking it was Rise Against.

01:00:29.000 My goodness.

01:00:30.000 Because that's another of my favorite bands, but no.

01:00:32.000 My bad, no.

01:00:33.000 Favorite bands, you don't even know their song lyrics.

01:00:35.000 No, apparently not.

01:00:36.000 Shame on you.

01:00:37.000 Too funny.

01:00:37.000 Anyway, Cole Tilton says, do you guys like Philly soft pretzels?

01:00:40.000 Oh my goodness, yes.

01:00:42.000 I love them.

01:00:43.000 They're so good.

01:00:44.000 I actually grew up in Philadelphia.

01:00:46.000 Random little tidbit, I went to high school here in the north side of Philly, and I have really good memories here.

01:00:52.000 And so those Philly pretzels bring me back.

01:00:56.000 Wolfsbane says, I know this was from yesterday, but as a person that lives in Georgia, it has one of the most bipolar weather in the world, but hey, maybe I'm biased.

01:01:07.000 Yeah, I don't know much about Georgia.

01:01:08.000 I've driven through Georgia a lot in my life, but only that, just driving through.

01:01:13.000 Chet Chrisholm says, Trump taking hydrochloroquine when he doesn't have C-19 is effing stupid.

01:01:21.000 If it was on the advance of his doctor, then it's also malpractice.

01:01:27.000 You wouldn't give insulin to prevent diabetes or something else before a heart attack.

01:01:33.000 Except, I've read into this and what it does is it increases, I think it's the zinc?

01:01:39.000 It helps your body take zinc more?

01:01:42.000 I think it's zinc.

01:01:43.000 I might be wrong.

01:01:44.000 I'm not sure exactly.

01:01:45.000 Does that sound right?

01:01:46.000 Yeah, zinc helps your body fight infection and that's been known for a really long time.

01:01:49.000 Right, and I think that's what it is.

01:01:52.000 It is a preventative medicine, actually.

01:01:54.000 It's not the most crazy thing.

01:01:58.000 Insulin, you need to help balance your sugar levels, so that's a little different because the hydrochloroquine helps regulate your zinc levels and helps you fight infections more.

01:02:13.000 I don't blame him.

01:02:14.000 He's the president.

01:02:15.000 You know, he needs to he needs to have as much as he can.

01:02:17.000 I don't know.

01:02:19.000 We'll see.

01:02:20.000 All right.

01:02:20.000 Let's see.

01:02:21.000 Chris Mattel says, Hey, Tim, do you think the recent CNN comedy in quotes skits from the Cuomo's could be them priming him to replace Biden show he could take smears and such?

01:02:34.000 I haven't seen it.

01:02:35.000 Oh, my gosh.

01:02:36.000 I have seen this where they're messing with the giant Q-tip, the cotton Q-tip.

01:02:40.000 It's like a cotton swab. 0.95

01:02:41.000 Oh, I did see that.

01:02:42.000 Is it supposed to be some sort of comedy?

01:02:45.000 Yes, it's supposed to be some kind of like, I forget what Tim was calling it, but it was like some kind of sketch.

01:02:51.000 And then it was because Andrew Cuomo got the test on live TV and she shoved the She shoved the swab all the way back into his nose.

01:03:01.000 Isn't that what you're supposed to do?

01:03:02.000 It is exactly what you're supposed to do.

01:03:03.000 But they were making it like super funny and I'm like, why are you trying to humanize this guy who has like an 80% disapproval rating who's overseen the death of thousands of people in New York City?

01:03:13.000 I can't stand that guy.

01:03:15.000 Cuomo.

01:03:15.000 Both of them.

01:03:15.000 I can't stand either one of them.

01:03:18.000 At first I was like, all right, you know, okay, he seems to not not the news anchor.

01:03:22.000 Yeah, governor, right?

01:03:24.000 Yeah, I was like, all right, this guy's seems to be telling like it is, you know, and then of course, I find they're like shoving people in old people's homes. 0.83

01:03:32.000 I don't know actually if this is for certain, but it seems to be that people are there's like a hashtag killer Cuomo going around.

01:03:39.000 I don't know.

01:03:39.000 Yeah, he's responsible for a lot.

01:03:41.000 Yeah, well.

01:03:42.000 I hope they're not gearing him up to take Biden's place.

01:03:44.000 I hope not.

01:03:45.000 I don't know.

01:03:46.000 I have no idea what the DNC is going to do.

01:03:48.000 Crip Crack Attack says, Joe and Alex have been friends since the 90s.

01:03:52.000 Yeah, I guess 22 years they've been friends.

01:03:54.000 That's crazy.

01:03:55.000 Lior Engelstein says, I think you should look up Texas and Las Vegas.

01:03:59.000 Texas looks like the next hotbed for your industry.

01:04:02.000 Las Vegas has no real natural disasters and not hard convincing people to come into the studio.

01:04:08.000 That's a good point.

01:04:08.000 Yeah, he's pretty set on moving.

01:04:11.000 I don't know where he's gonna decide.

01:04:13.000 I don't know where we'll end up.

01:04:15.000 Jesus says, here is my weekly due to the Beanie Union. 0.73

01:04:18.000 I like that.

01:04:19.000 The Beanie Union.

01:04:20.000 It's got a good vibe.

01:04:21.000 Glad to be out of quarantine after a week and cutting grass once again.

01:04:25.000 You folks should revisit the Batgirl controversy.

01:04:28.000 Makes for a great... Listen, we were gonna talk about it.

01:04:31.000 I guess we didn't get to it.

01:04:32.000 What was it?

01:04:33.000 We were gonna get to it yesterday.

01:04:34.000 We tried to get to it yesterday.

01:04:35.000 We ended up talking about the Snyder Cut instead.

01:04:38.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:04:38.000 So that was the last clip from yesterday.

01:04:40.000 Oh, right, right.

01:04:40.000 Yeah, maybe we should talk about that at some point.

01:04:41.000 I guess.

01:04:42.000 I don't know.

01:04:43.000 I mean, I didn't watch it.

01:04:44.000 It feels silly.

01:04:45.000 Like, it's just another go get woke, go broke.

01:04:49.000 Yeah.

01:04:49.000 Like, okay, and?

01:04:51.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:04:52.000 Like, have you not learned that yet?

01:04:53.000 Come on.

01:04:53.000 Yeah, come on.

01:04:54.000 Infinality says, if both Tim and Alex Jones were on Joe Rogan, does that make Tim Alex Jones adjacent?

01:05:01.000 Sure why not.

01:05:02.000 Sneaky Soviet says, there is some drive-in theaters opening near me tomorrow, one of which has been closed for seven years.

01:05:08.000 It's pretty awesome.

01:05:09.000 I have seen that, that they're opening again.

01:05:10.000 That's really cool.

01:05:11.000 I remember when I was younger, I went to a couple of drive-ins when I was like nine.

01:05:16.000 This is like 20 something years ago.

01:05:18.000 Yeah, 25 years?

01:05:20.000 I don't know.

01:05:20.000 That's awesome.

01:05:21.000 Math.

01:05:23.000 Ziesel the Fallen says, do you think you'd ever start having guests on this podcast?

01:05:27.000 Yes, actually, we did just move up here, but we wanted to have guests.

01:05:32.000 We were prepping to have guests, and then a little something called coronavirus 19 hit us.

01:05:38.000 So now we've been locked in.

01:05:41.000 Timothy E says, Kansas is one true way.

01:05:45.000 Every other state sucks.

01:05:46.000 Just move here, Tim.

01:05:47.000 The only state that still has some freedoms have crap weather because SJWs are too soft to live in them.

01:05:54.000 Suck it up, man.

01:05:56.000 That's a good argument.

01:05:56.000 You got good points there.

01:05:57.000 Can't argue with that.

01:05:58.000 Yep.

01:05:59.000 Brian Boinko says 5.0.

01:06:00.000 All right.

01:06:03.000 Cool.

01:06:03.000 We'll take it.

01:06:04.000 Truels Emil Johansson says... Johanna Nesson?

01:06:09.000 I think I said that right.

01:06:10.000 Spotify did purge InfoWars back in 2018 though.

01:06:13.000 What is the difference from YouTube?

01:06:15.000 I don't know.

01:06:15.000 You want to check that out?

01:06:16.000 Yeah, I didn't know they purged... I think Alex Jones was purged from every single platform.

01:06:22.000 Oh, okay.

01:06:22.000 That's part of the Alex Jones thing?

01:06:24.000 Yeah.

01:06:24.000 Oh, okay, okay.

01:06:25.000 Infowars is Alex Jones.

01:06:26.000 Right.

01:06:27.000 But, I mean, it seems that Joe has, like, a legitimate contract, you know?

01:06:31.000 So he's probably... I mean, he's not going to go anywhere else unless it's a guarantee he can do whatever he wants on the show.

01:06:37.000 It's Joe Rogan.

01:06:38.000 So we'll see.

01:06:40.000 But you do make a good point.

01:06:42.000 Kyle Miller says, these states need to open up soon or expect less tax revenue from businesses.

01:06:47.000 Can't get much tax revenue from businesses that have been closed for 2020.

01:06:50.000 That's a great point.

01:06:52.000 That's very true.

01:06:52.000 Like, hey states, you're losing money.

01:06:54.000 Tomorrow, everything's going to be opening up.

01:06:57.000 They're like, oh, that's a good point.

01:06:59.000 We're going to lose money.

01:07:00.000 We should open up now.

01:07:01.000 Yeah, we should shout that more loudly.

01:07:04.000 That's a good point.

01:07:05.000 Get back in your coffin says Tim.

01:07:07.000 I don't want to smash the like button.

01:07:08.000 I want to smash Adam.

01:07:10.000 Oh well But on that note smash that like button You can't technically smash me because I'm on the other side of the screen unfortunately for you Drunk Shovel says, give me liberty or give me death.

01:07:26.000 Those words should be on the lips of every American.

01:07:28.000 End the grip on our liberties.

01:07:30.000 Don't tread on me.

01:07:31.000 100% agree.

01:07:33.000 It's crazy what they're trying to do here.

01:07:36.000 Or rather, what they are doing.

01:07:37.000 They are successfully doing.

01:07:39.000 Clink Clank Boom of Flavors says, why not move to South Carolina?

01:07:42.000 Still East Coast.

01:07:44.000 Yep, the Carolinas are there.

01:07:46.000 Carlos Cruz says, hello fellow Beanie Floor Bows.

01:07:49.000 What do you think about the Eastern religions?

01:07:51.000 Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism come to mind.

01:07:53.000 Thoughts on Alan Watts and McKenna?

01:07:56.000 Alan Watts is an amazing person.

01:07:59.000 I don't really know McKenna's work, but then of course You know, there is something about Buddhism I really liked that sticks with my head.

01:08:06.000 I'm not sure who exactly said it, but it was said that there's 7 billion people on this planet, so there should be 7 billion religions.

01:08:18.000 And I love that because we are all different.

01:08:20.000 You know, we're so unique in our own, you know, upbringings, environments, class, everything.

01:08:28.000 We're so different, all of us, that, you know, no one thing can make sense for everybody.

01:08:34.000 So everyone needs to find their own path.

01:08:37.000 And I love that about Buddhism.

01:08:38.000 And that's always something that stuck with me.

01:08:40.000 I don't know about the rest though.

01:08:43.000 Mark Robert Shaw says who was it that said reality is stranger than fiction because since 2016 this world has been wild and honestly I love it freedom.

01:08:51.000 You know who also has been talking about that Ian Crosland.

01:08:54.000 I don't know who joined me on Adamcast IRL when Tim and Lydia were gone But Ian joined me and he has been saying that we've been we've been chatting.

01:09:02.000 He's like man something happened Well, he said it earlier 2012.

01:09:05.000 Yeah, the world world actually ended and we split off on our timeline and now we're in some weird Alternate reality.

01:09:14.000 Alternate something going on, yeah.

01:09:15.000 So it definitely feels crazy.

01:09:19.000 Quiet Guitarist Fan says, I respect you three, but your interpretation of BVS was just wrong.

01:09:25.000 What is BVS?

01:09:26.000 I'm not sure.

01:09:27.000 What are we doing here?

01:09:28.000 Let me look it up.

01:09:29.000 Sorry, I'm not sure exactly what you're talking about.

01:09:31.000 Oh, wait, wait.

01:09:31.000 Batman vs. Superman.

01:09:33.000 It was a redemption arc for Batman and a purpose arc for Superman.

01:09:37.000 Batman stopped when he heard the name because he realized he had become who he hated and he had become cruel from losing so much.

01:09:46.000 You do make a good point, okay.

01:09:47.000 That is compelling.

01:09:48.000 Yeah, so maybe he, like Tim said, he could have just stopped attacking Superman and thrown the spear aside and said, you know, just so you know, you've been beat.

01:09:57.000 But he didn't really think that maybe Batman had, like, red in his eyes, like he saw red.

01:10:03.000 Maybe he really was trying to kill Superman and was gonna kill him.

01:10:07.000 and and you that's a good point when he it kinda like brought him back to his

01:10:12.000 human side like whoa i'm about to kill this this person who has a mother just 0.94

01:10:16.000 like me to great point

01:10:19.000 uh... went in gets back on well i'll have conversation i'm sure about

01:10:22.000 eventually pickle old pillar of world says come to the free state in

01:10:26.000 the union new hampshire We have only one freedom festival, Porkfest.

01:10:30.000 Well, I probably won't attend Porkfest, but I'm glad you guys are living free out there.

01:10:35.000 And you're not the first person to suggest New Hampshire.

01:10:37.000 Yeah.

01:10:38.000 Jacob Talbot, thank you for the super chat.

01:10:40.000 Glenn Manuel says, Canada, a man was fined for drinking coffee alone in a car at a Tim Horton parking lot.

01:10:45.000 Cop told him to leave.

01:10:46.000 He started to leave and then the cop stopped him from leaving, ticketing him all on tape.

01:10:51.000 I heard about this and it's ridiculous.

01:10:53.000 What is going on in the world?

01:10:54.000 Oh my gosh.

01:10:56.000 Chuck Morris says, turned off my phone.

01:10:58.000 GTFO while you can.

01:11:01.000 Gold818 says, speaking of other platforms, why don't you guys use Restreams.io to rebroadcast your stream on multiple platforms?

01:11:11.000 For example, DLive, BitChute, Twitch, Facebook Live, also the OBS plugin combines chat.

01:11:18.000 I'll have to look at that.

01:11:19.000 Yeah, I mean, I'm not interested in Twitch.

01:11:22.000 I was gonna start streaming games.

01:11:24.000 A lot of people do ask me to stream games, and I am a heavy gamer, and I am actually gonna start streaming soon.

01:11:31.000 But yeah, this Twitch fiasco with their... It feels like they're doing the same thing that YouTube's doing, just trying to, you know, be, I don't know, on top of stuff that doesn't even exist.

01:11:43.000 It's crazy.

01:11:45.000 Tharpen It Up says, move to East Tennessee.

01:11:47.000 We're very media oriented in a red state with preppers, East Coast, and most of us are musicians.

01:11:53.000 Must be the water.

01:11:54.000 I love to jam.

01:11:56.000 Sounds good.

01:11:57.000 You know, I've actually been to Tennessee and that's a great place.

01:12:00.000 And I stopped by a few places that had some amazing vegan food randomly, but yeah, seems like a good spot.

01:12:09.000 Graboid Biden, funny name, says, is there any worse than realizing you walk through a spiderweb and then you feel something walking on your neck?

01:12:18.000 Just happened.

01:12:18.000 Oh no, I'm sorry.

01:12:20.000 I can think of something actually worse.

01:12:23.000 I was walking from my tent to the bathroom and I was camping out in this place called, it was a Permajam festival a couple, I think it was two years ago.

01:12:33.000 And there was a low hanging branch and I brushed past it.

01:12:38.000 And I went to the bathroom and went back and I was laying there and I felt something on my neck and when I looked it was a tick and it had bitten me!

01:12:46.000 I don't like things sucking my blood.

01:12:48.000 That is worse than a spider.

01:12:49.000 If you're an insect, then... I'm vegan.

01:12:51.000 I will still kill... I will kill you so fast.

01:12:54.000 And they don't go down easy, man.

01:12:56.000 Those tics, you gotta, like, really smash. 1.00

01:12:58.000 I hate tics.

01:12:59.000 Tics are... They're gross. 0.98

01:13:02.000 Yeah.

01:13:02.000 Gross.

01:13:03.000 Bobcat says, life is like beer.

01:13:25.000 Hello.

01:13:26.000 Matt Custer says, it's all, it's your favorite spoiled, wait, I'm sorry.

01:13:30.000 It's your favorite spoiled orphan millennial.

01:13:33.000 Okay.

01:13:37.000 Oh well.

01:13:38.000 I'm sorry to hear that.

01:13:39.000 I actually know some people that have passed away from that, so be careful.

01:13:42.000 Oh gosh, yeah.

01:13:44.000 Big Al says, Cuomo stole the giant q-tip bit from the Simpsons, Krusty the Clown, when he was on Tuesday Night Live.

01:13:52.000 What a surprise.

01:13:53.000 Not even original.

01:13:55.000 Mr. Rich Lopich says, leftist.

01:13:58.000 Listen to the experts.

01:13:59.000 Non-leftists point to doctors who want to reopen.

01:14:03.000 What about those experts?

01:14:04.000 YouTube deletes the videos.

01:14:06.000 What experts?

01:14:07.000 Insert evil laugh here.

01:14:09.000 Yeah, that seems to be the case.

01:14:11.000 Hey, what's good?

01:14:11.000 Uh, Chet Chrisholm.

01:14:12.000 Adam's sending you info on Hydrochloroquine tonight.

01:14:15.000 Look up Alex Jones' Gay Frogs remix. 0.69

01:14:17.000 Also, I propose Tim Harumphing alter ego be officially named Baron Von Beanie.

01:14:25.000 Not bad.

01:14:26.000 Not bad.

01:14:28.000 I'm looking forward to reading that stuff.

01:14:28.000 Cool.

01:14:30.000 And thanks for sending me the stuff that you have sent me so far.

01:14:33.000 Chaotic says, Hey Timcast, I've been considering trying We Are Change University to get an understanding on how to do work as a journalist.

01:14:41.000 Have you heard of it?

01:14:42.000 And if so, would you recommend it?

01:14:44.000 Take this 20 and keep up the good work.

01:14:46.000 I appreciate that.

01:14:46.000 Well, thank you, Chaotic.

01:14:47.000 I unfortunately don't know what it is.

01:14:49.000 Maybe Tim does.

01:14:50.000 Have you heard of it?

01:14:51.000 You know, We Are Change?

01:14:52.000 You know, but anything to further your mind mentally is always a good thing.

01:14:57.000 That's Luke's production.

01:14:58.000 Oh, We Are Change.

01:14:59.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's Luke.

01:15:00.000 University.

01:15:01.000 So is he doing like a class or something?

01:15:03.000 I'm not sure.

01:15:04.000 Yeah, We Are Change.

01:15:05.000 That is Luke's.

01:15:08.000 He's cool.

01:15:08.000 I met Luke a few times.

01:15:09.000 He's a nice guy.

01:15:11.000 Let's see.

01:15:12.000 Jeff McCorbin says, Tim, 1v1 me in Smash Brothers.

01:15:15.000 I can send Adam my friend code and everything.

01:15:18.000 We can even make it interesting.

01:15:20.000 If you win, I will donate $50 to your channel.

01:15:23.000 To some that may not be a lot, but to me it is.

01:15:26.000 Oh, that absolutely is a lot, and I would love to watch that, because Tim is incredible at Smash Brothers.

01:15:31.000 Yes.

01:15:33.000 QuietGuitarsFan again says Snyder painted a whole picture in Batman vs. Superman Ultimate Edition of Batman's rage, cruelty, and bitterness.

01:15:42.000 He saw how weak he was compared to Superman and felt powerless.

01:15:45.000 As Alfred said, a good man turned cruel.

01:15:48.000 Yeah, you know, that scene bugged me so much when I first watched that movie.

01:15:55.000 And what you pointed out really makes me want to re-watch it with a different mentality.

01:16:00.000 Because that does make a lot of sense.

01:16:01.000 That he lost himself.

01:16:05.000 He became cruel.

01:16:08.000 Like a good man turned cruel, yeah.

01:16:10.000 That's really, really great.

01:16:12.000 Mr. Rich Lopich again says, don't mean to crowd other chats, but I'm trying to get into voiceover work and was wondering what microphone and sound installation you recommend.

01:16:23.000 Now that I have no idea, but I do know these Shure microphones.

01:16:27.000 What is this?

01:16:29.000 It is the Shure SM7B is like the go-to for podcasts.

01:16:35.000 Yeah.

01:16:35.000 This is the same thing Joe Rogan uses.

01:16:37.000 Yep, they're great.

01:16:37.000 So these are like the thing to get.

01:16:40.000 I mean, if you want to do something really good that professionals use, obviously we're professionals here.

01:16:47.000 Of course.

01:16:48.000 The Shure SM7B mic is really good.

01:16:50.000 It's a good mic.

01:16:52.000 David Sedino says Amazon Liverpool New York 350 million for warehouse 1k jobs Okay, I guess they're hiring or I'm not sure what that means.

01:17:05.000 Okay drunk shovel again says organize militias and charities Take care of your countrymen.

01:17:11.000 The government won't save us.

01:17:12.000 We need to be strong and help ourselves Care for your friends and neighbors.

01:17:16.000 We're a family America All right.

01:17:19.000 I appreciate that Yeah.

01:17:20.000 Architects of Fate.

01:17:22.000 Since you are doing remote guests now, will you have not-so-obvious on?

01:17:26.000 He is trying to do a documentary by himself on the grooming gangs in the UK.

01:17:30.000 Last video was about a survivor attacked on May 19th, 2020, just two days ago.

01:17:35.000 You know, we aren't doing remote guests.

01:17:37.000 We want to have guests on the show and we... I don't know.

01:17:43.000 I know Tim is not down for remote guests.

01:17:45.000 It's, you know, it's not as easy as it may seem.

01:17:48.000 I know Tim did a guest spot on... who did he go on?

01:17:52.000 Was it on Shapiro's show?

01:17:53.000 He goes on sometimes for The Blaze.

01:17:55.000 He'll go on for Glenn Beck's show.

01:17:57.000 Wasn't he on Shapiro's show?

01:17:58.000 I don't recall.

01:17:59.000 Like two weeks ago?

01:18:00.000 No, like a month ago or something.

01:18:02.000 If he was on Shapiro, I did not notice.

01:18:04.000 Yeah, but they did it the day before because doing it live is much different.

01:18:08.000 Right.

01:18:09.000 Yeah, because we're live right now.

01:18:10.000 He just got a phone call from obviously an important person.

01:18:13.000 Someone very important.

01:18:15.000 I'm not saying who it was.

01:18:16.000 But they were very important.

01:18:17.000 But I have a feeling most of you know who it was.

01:18:20.000 Ooh, it's a mystery.

01:18:21.000 We'll see what Tim has to say when he comes back.

01:18:23.000 We'll see when he returns, yeah.

01:18:25.000 I don't want to miss anyone.

01:18:27.000 Mark Robertshaw says, I believe that most UFOs are drones or unmanned craft being human or alien origin because of the g-forces in their movements would kill organic life.

01:18:37.000 What, you know, it's hard to believe that, you know, if they're here, man, the whole alien thing.

01:18:43.000 I would love to have a chat about it.

01:18:46.000 Speaking of, can I get the wide shot?

01:18:48.000 Oh, yeah.

01:18:48.000 Hold on one second.

01:18:49.000 I've just noticed our UFO is not spinning.

01:18:53.000 We gotta spin the UFO!

01:18:54.000 You wanna come over here?

01:18:55.000 Yeah, you know what, let me move.

01:18:56.000 Why don't you come over here?

01:18:57.000 Yeah, let's do that.

01:18:59.000 And, I know you guys want me to spin the UFO, so I'm gonna spin this UFO.

01:19:02.000 It just feels wrong!

01:19:04.000 I gotta spin it!

01:19:06.000 Alright, now we have me and Lydia.

01:19:10.000 This is our show now.

01:19:12.000 Take it over.

01:19:14.000 So, Moe Gravy.

01:19:15.000 Hey Tim, spent my 80 days off work reporting videos on YouTube, the ones promoting narrative over facts.

01:19:22.000 I'm a photo video pro, no gigs, no money.

01:19:24.000 80 days.

01:19:27.000 That's a long time.

01:19:27.000 It's been, oh, we're over here now.

01:19:29.000 80 days.

01:19:30.000 It's crazy, it's been 80 days.

01:19:32.000 Oh my gosh.

01:19:33.000 Yeah, I can't believe it.

01:19:34.000 And yeah, that really sucks that you have no gigs.

01:19:38.000 I hope, you know, the economy picks up again so you can start working again.

01:19:42.000 Zeryl Gardner says, if the Joe Rogan move works, Spotify will be a new alternative to YouTube.

01:19:48.000 Yeah, and that's why I think YouTube is stressing out because it's a serious viable option and they just got YouTube's biggest podcast.

01:19:58.000 Not only YouTube's, the biggest podcast in the world.

01:20:01.000 It's Joe Rogan's.

01:20:01.000 Yeah, I hope they're paying attention.

01:20:03.000 Oh, they are.

01:20:04.000 They're definitely paying attention.

01:20:05.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:20:07.000 All right, so, uh, Black Belt of Confession, uh, Constitution.

01:20:12.000 Never heard of that.

01:20:13.000 Hey, Tim, what are your thoughts on, uh, from Parasite to Hell trapped at a music festival because of COVID-19?

01:20:20.000 Oh, I actually did, uh, see this.

01:20:22.000 Do you hear about this?

01:20:23.000 There was a festival that was going on in South Pacific somewhere.

01:20:27.000 I don't know where it was.

01:20:28.000 Oh, yeah.

01:20:28.000 But then all the flights got canceled.

01:20:30.000 Then all of a sudden, they didn't even hear about COVID.

01:20:33.000 They were just, like, partying, whatever, at this festival.

01:20:35.000 And then all of a sudden, They were like, oh, we can't leave.

01:20:38.000 Like, why?

01:20:38.000 Like, oh, well, COVID-19, duh.

01:20:40.000 And then it's like, oh, what is that?

01:20:43.000 Yeah, Tim and I were talking about that on the drive.

01:20:44.000 And then they're stuck there.

01:20:45.000 Yeah, they were stuck for like weeks.

01:20:47.000 Yeah, that sucks.

01:20:49.000 Awful.

01:20:49.000 That doesn't sound fun.

01:20:51.000 All right, let's see.

01:20:54.000 Kaldroneer says, please disavow lit solar ads.

01:20:58.000 They're using stolen American solar SIGs tech.

01:21:01.000 I've worked as an engineer at solar manufacturers.

01:21:04.000 China is abusing us.

01:21:05.000 I don't know anything about it.

01:21:08.000 But there's a little bit for you to hear right there.

01:21:11.000 Joey Tally says, have you all thought about doing a similar pay method to the one of your

01:21:16.000 main content for the whole crew so I don't have to give YouTube money?

01:21:21.000 That's a good point.

01:21:22.000 Maybe we should set up our own.

01:21:24.000 Yeah, we need to kind of iron that out.

01:21:25.000 People can drop us some coins.

01:21:27.000 Yeah, that'd be nice.

01:21:29.000 James Wallace says, the madman is back.

01:21:33.000 He is bat-esque crazy, but he has been right more than a broken clock. 1.00

01:21:39.000 I know, that is pretty crazy.

01:21:41.000 I don't watch Alex Jones.

01:21:43.000 But I do hear a lot of people talking about him because, you know, but it's the, I know the broken, you say the broken clock, you know, the broken clock is right twice a day, but he has been right on a few things.

01:21:54.000 I don't have anything that comes to mind, but.

01:21:56.000 He's just very kind of flamboyant, not flamboyant.

01:21:58.000 That's not the right word.

01:22:00.000 Um, I forget what word Tim uses, but it's just like very outspoken and hyperbolic.

01:22:04.000 Yeah.

01:22:05.000 So when he says something's true, it's, it's buried under a mountain of other stuff.

01:22:08.000 Well, he said he was gonna eat his neighbors.

01:22:09.000 Uh, yeah, I hope that part's not true.

01:22:11.000 I don't think it's gonna come to that, but, uh, I don't know.

01:22:13.000 Let's not.

01:22:14.000 I think he was just saying it to stay relevant.

01:22:16.000 Not necessarily relevant, but get a little boost.

01:22:20.000 Yeah.

01:22:20.000 Because that was everywhere.

01:22:21.000 Come on, everyone knew that.

01:22:23.000 A little cabin fever.

01:22:24.000 All right, let's see.

01:22:26.000 Amansol, excuse me, China is putting cameras inside people's houses. 0.98

01:22:32.000 How long before that happens here?

01:22:33.000 Hmm, I wonder.

01:22:34.000 There's no way that's gonna happen here.

01:22:36.000 I mean, there's no way.

01:22:41.000 I didn't think we would be where we are now.

01:22:43.000 No, no, no, no.

01:22:43.000 I don't know.

01:22:44.000 That's not gonna happen.

01:22:45.000 That's crazy.

01:22:46.000 Capitalism, Entertainment, and Technology says, Logan Paul had Alex on and I saw the episode.

01:22:51.000 It was fun.

01:22:51.000 Right.

01:22:52.000 Right on.

01:22:52.000 You can check it out.

01:22:53.000 Outlaw Bear says, watch Alex Jones's Endgame documentary and see how he called everything happening because of COVID-19 back in 2007.

01:23:02.000 That's 13 years ago.

01:23:03.000 All right.

01:23:05.000 STFU says, per Alex Jones, your description of spreading out the outrage to diminish the impact is literally equivalent concept to flattening the curve.

01:23:14.000 All right, I can see it.

01:23:16.000 Kyle Miller says, instead of calling CIA leaker Voldemort, call him what Terry A. Davis calls the CIA so that he glows in the dark.

01:23:25.000 All right.

01:23:26.000 Voldemort's pretty cool, though.

01:23:27.000 I like it.

01:23:29.000 Wolf Lincoln, thanks for becoming a member.

01:23:31.000 Appreciate that.

01:23:32.000 Mark Robertshaw says, the internet is a modern battleground for civil rights and ideology.

01:23:37.000 Time will tell if it moves in real life.

01:23:41.000 The case global backlash against authority is yuck.

01:23:45.000 Yeah.

01:23:46.000 Alter the Dark, sorry, Atler the Dark says, don't forget Spotify was one of those companies that banned Alex Jones.

01:23:52.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:23:53.000 Someone else did say that.

01:23:55.000 Yeah, I guess it was like a universal thing that Alex Jones just got banned from the internet.

01:23:59.000 I don't really know.

01:24:00.000 I wasn't really paying attention two years ago.

01:24:03.000 It was kind of...

01:24:04.000 Yeah, not in the political realm.

01:24:05.000 I don't say, not don't, because I'm immersed in it now.

01:24:11.000 I can't get away from it.

01:24:11.000 I don't have a choice.

01:24:12.000 Yeah, I have no choice.

01:24:14.000 Sorry.

01:24:14.000 No, that's okay.

01:24:15.000 Honestly, I like being informed.

01:24:17.000 I have zero regrets.

01:24:20.000 Good.

01:24:21.000 And that's something I've always lived with, just no regrets.

01:24:23.000 Because if you get, that means you're wallowing instead of learning.

01:24:28.000 from your decisions and it's like having a regret you can learn you can have it but don't let it control you so good

01:24:35.000 policy yeah but uh yeah i guess i mean it seems like rogan's got a legitimate deal with spotify he's not going to go

01:24:43.000 there unless it's it's official yeah um mr fix it mr fix it there we go i appreciate your common sense approach to

01:24:54.000 bringing us facts no matter if they match your political leanings it's

01:24:57.000 It's far and few between these days.

01:24:59.000 I appreciate that.

01:25:01.000 Chuck Morris says the Constitution is still in effect.

01:25:03.000 Time to stop and open up the country.

01:25:07.000 Come on! 0.61

01:25:09.000 Michelle Maibel says, my home state of California is still on lockdown but didn't seem to stop Pelosi from shooting Botox into her battleaxe mug.

01:25:18.000 Have a great day.

01:25:19.000 She is a scary looking woman. 0.99

01:25:21.000 That was considered essential because if she didn't have that Botox... 1.00

01:25:24.000 I can't believe it.

01:25:25.000 It was crazy.

01:25:26.000 She looked like a normal human, you know?

01:25:29.000 And then suddenly it was like, she looked really uncomfortable, actually.

01:25:34.000 Oh, Tim's returned.

01:25:35.000 Tim has returned.

01:25:36.000 So I'm going to give it up for Tim.

01:25:39.000 We're all going to move and play musical chairs here.

01:25:43.000 I had to take that call.

01:25:47.000 How's the super chair?

01:25:47.000 It's hot in here.

01:25:48.000 What is it, like 80 degrees?

01:25:49.000 It is hot in here.

01:25:50.000 I just got off the phone with, uh... Well, someone said they wanted to smash me and I got all nervous and... No, I'm just kidding.

01:25:57.000 I just got off the phone with Joe.

01:25:59.000 You just got off the phone with Joe Rogan?

01:26:01.000 Joe Rogan.

01:26:02.000 So I saw this story... You heard it here.

01:26:04.000 So he was talking to Joe Rogan.

01:26:06.000 And I got some crazy stuff.

01:26:07.000 Oh.

01:26:08.000 Are we allowed to talk about it?

01:26:09.000 Yes.

01:26:10.000 Yes!

01:26:10.000 It's a long conversation.

01:26:11.000 Alright.

01:26:12.000 A lot of, you know, just like BS.

01:26:13.000 We were like complaining about censorship stuff.

01:26:15.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:26:16.000 And that's what it's all about, I'm sure, right?

01:26:19.000 Well, no, no, I mean, so Joe said he got a really awesome deal.

01:26:23.000 Yeah.

01:26:23.000 So he took it.

01:26:24.000 Obviously.

01:26:24.000 Yeah, that's what I was just saying.

01:26:26.000 He is upset with censorship.

01:26:28.000 Yeah.

01:26:28.000 Alex made a bunch of, like, he embellished to an extreme degree, I'll put it that way.

01:26:33.000 Yeah.

01:26:34.000 I'm not surprised.

01:26:35.000 And Alex actually took it all down.

01:26:37.000 Oh, really?

01:26:37.000 Yeah.

01:26:38.000 Wow.

01:26:38.000 Okay.

01:26:38.000 So he actually took the stuff down.

01:26:39.000 Okay.

01:26:40.000 But I can say some stuff.

01:26:42.000 So, Joe's not going to war.

01:26:45.000 No.

01:26:45.000 That was not true.

01:26:46.000 The gloves aren't off.

01:26:47.000 That was Alex Jones.

01:26:49.000 Alex was just saying all the stuff.

01:26:50.000 Yeah.

01:26:51.000 And Joe was like, he's like, man, it's just a great deal.

01:26:53.000 And, you know, I'm going to take it.

01:26:55.000 And he did tell me something really interesting.

01:26:58.000 And I was like, I had to clarify this on the record.

01:26:59.000 Like, is this legit?

01:27:00.000 He's like, definitely.

01:27:02.000 Oh, nice.

01:27:03.000 You guys ready for this?

01:27:04.000 I am so ready.

01:27:05.000 I'm excited.

01:27:06.000 When Alex Jones appeared on the Joe Rogan podcast last time, they got 17 million views.

01:27:12.000 Joe contacted YouTube to warn them.

01:27:15.000 They said, OK, and then monetized it.

01:27:19.000 That's it.

01:27:20.000 It wasn't monetized?

01:27:21.000 Alex Jones had been banned from the platform.

01:27:24.000 Right.

01:27:24.000 He had been purged.

01:27:26.000 Oh, this was after he was purged?

01:27:27.000 Yeah.

01:27:28.000 Okay.

01:27:28.000 I'm pretty sure.

01:27:30.000 And so, in the midst of all of these demonetizations happening all over the place, he was like, we hit him up and said, hey, just so you know, Alex is on the podcast.

01:27:39.000 And then they had forewarning, monetized it.

01:27:42.000 That raised a lot of questions.

01:27:45.000 Why was Alex Jones removed?

01:27:47.000 But when they got a heads up he was gonna be on Joe's show to like huge press, did they say run ads on it?

01:27:55.000 They wanted to make that money.

01:27:56.000 They did.

01:27:56.000 And they didn't care it was Alex Jones.

01:27:58.000 They didn't care.

01:27:59.000 And I was, Joe, he mentioned, we were talking about it and I said, you know, is the stuff about doctors true?

01:28:04.000 Did you say, did YouTube ever tell you?

01:28:06.000 No, no, no, no, no, no, it's not the case.

01:28:09.000 Oh, okay.

01:28:10.000 Joe basically said, I have on who I want to have on.

01:28:12.000 It's nothing like that.

01:28:14.000 But he does think, he told me, we got to have some kind of protections the way we do free speech for the internet.

01:28:22.000 It doesn't make sense that you're on YouTube or whatever, and they can just remove you, end you, or iTunes or whatever.

01:28:30.000 Yep, just delete you away.

01:28:32.000 We talked about a lot of stuff.

01:28:33.000 I want to make sure I don't get into like, you know, because we didn't talk about literally just nothing but the stuff.

01:28:38.000 Right, right, right.

01:28:39.000 He basically mentioned the gist of the conversation.

01:28:42.000 When you go to Spotify, when you do a deal like this, you've got someone who asks you like, how can we help you succeed?

01:28:47.000 When you're on YouTube, you're asking YouTube, please don't hurt me.

01:28:51.000 Those are my words.

01:28:52.000 Right, no, I get it.

01:28:53.000 That's how it is.

01:28:54.000 So, there it is.

01:28:56.000 It makes sense.

01:28:57.000 You know what I mean?

01:28:58.000 It's true.

01:28:58.000 Alex took it down.

01:29:00.000 But I don't know exactly what Joe's contact or anything like that is.

01:29:07.000 Who he's going to have on.

01:29:09.000 But I guess Joe's like, I'm going to have on interesting people and I'm not going to have to worry about it.

01:29:13.000 Is he going to have Alex on?

01:29:15.000 I believe so.

01:29:16.000 Okay.

01:29:16.000 But I don't think it's like the way Alex framed it.

01:29:18.000 I'm gonna be his first guest and you know.

01:29:20.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:29:20.000 But uh...

01:29:22.000 I mean, that's about it.

01:29:23.000 The interesting thing, I think, is that the monetization of Alex Jones, I think, has huge connotations.

01:29:29.000 Like, that's serious.

01:29:31.000 That YouTube was simultaneously telling people, like, we're doing these things for these reasons, then behind the scenes being like, yeah, yeah, come on, let's get some ad money.

01:29:38.000 Yeah, we'll give that money.

01:29:39.000 17 mil.

01:29:40.000 You want to know what I think?

01:29:42.000 Of course.

01:29:42.000 Alex Jones was making mad cash on YouTube.

01:29:45.000 Yeah.

01:29:46.000 YouTube wanted that money.

01:29:47.000 Yeah.

01:29:47.000 The only reason they got rid of them was because the media was going after them that means the advertisers would pull

01:29:51.000 out and they Would lose more money so here they found their sweet. You

01:29:55.000 know double dip yeah, oh, it's not us Get mad at Joe Rogan. He had him on yeah

01:30:02.000 Run hands on it.

01:30:03.000 Yeah.

01:30:04.000 They got to run the ads on it.

01:30:05.000 They got to deflect blame.

01:30:06.000 Hey, we banned them.

01:30:07.000 You know, we can't control, you know, the biggest podcast in the world on iTunes.

01:30:11.000 And so I think competition is going to be our saving grace.

01:30:13.000 Yeah, that makes sense.

01:30:16.000 You know, learning the stuff that Joe never said, this stuff does change a lot of my initial reaction we had earlier in the show.

01:30:21.000 Yeah.

01:30:21.000 That, you know, it's going to... But I think it still stands.

01:30:27.000 Joe's concerned about censorship.

01:30:28.000 He thinks it's insane that doctors are being banned, stuff like that, but it's not his motivation or whatever.

01:30:33.000 He's just doing his thing.

01:30:34.000 But it is true, in my opinion, because I don't think he thinks too much about this stuff, that if he starts having on more controversial guests, I'm going to sneeze.

01:30:44.000 And YouTube will be put under pressure.

01:30:48.000 If you ban this, then you're giving away your audience.

01:30:50.000 Exactly.

01:30:52.000 But there's another thing to consider, too, that with Joe doing a deal as big as he did, it opens the door for other creators.

01:31:01.000 It expands the industry.

01:31:03.000 Spotify's stock is skyrocketing.

01:31:06.000 That's not surprising.

01:31:07.000 And so how much money are they going to make just in market value from their stock?

01:31:12.000 I'm sure Joe Rogan's saying, I'm going to Spotify.

01:31:15.000 Boom.

01:31:16.000 Their stock skyrocketed.

01:31:17.000 So now they're like, OK, because of that, now we got all this market, you know, market capital or whatever.

01:31:23.000 What's that going to lead to?

01:31:24.000 I hope.

01:31:25.000 So I just found this out, actually.

01:31:27.000 My show is one of the like, it's on the front page, I guess.

01:31:30.000 If you go to Spotify and scroll down, it's like number 30 something on Spotify.

01:31:34.000 Yeah, even though it gets, like, no views.

01:31:36.000 Oh, cool.

01:31:37.000 But your show's on Spotify now, already.

01:31:38.000 Oh, it's been on Spotify for a long time.

01:31:40.000 Oh, right on, right on.

01:31:42.000 Oh, your main podcast.

01:31:43.000 IRL's on Spotify, right?

01:31:44.000 Yeah, I think so.

01:31:46.000 I mean, I hope so.

01:31:47.000 It's not on all of them, but yeah.

01:31:49.000 I'm excited for this, you know why?

01:31:51.000 If Spotify is trying to get in the market, that means they're gonna do what they have to do to make sure creators are happy.

01:31:57.000 YouTube owns the market, so they're doing what they can to make sure they stay on the top.

01:32:01.000 Well, there's a few superchats that people have pointed out to us.

01:32:04.000 Spotify also banned Alex Jones back in 2018.

01:32:06.000 Yeah, they were one of the ones.

01:32:08.000 So, how do we know that Spotify isn't gonna... Now they're getting all this money, and now, like, how do we know that they're not just gonna suddenly be like, you know what?

01:32:16.000 Maybe we should start censoring and doing the same thing YouTube's doing.

01:32:20.000 Yep, it's possible.

01:32:21.000 Yeah, it is.

01:32:22.000 But it's competition that I think will help.

01:32:24.000 Right.

01:32:24.000 It's not only YouTube anymore.

01:32:26.000 We actually have a viable option outside of YouTube.

01:32:28.000 And Alex is... So you better be sweating, YouTube!

01:32:30.000 I mean, look... No, they are.

01:32:31.000 I didn't know they are.

01:32:32.000 Alex took the video down.

01:32:34.000 I remember, actually, when I saw that article, I said I couldn't find it.

01:32:37.000 Right.

01:32:37.000 Alex had removed it.

01:32:38.000 Oh, that's why.

01:32:39.000 Yeah.

01:32:39.000 And so good on him for doing the right, you know, taking it down because he went off the rails on it.

01:32:43.000 Yeah.

01:32:44.000 But seems like he's substantially more controversial.

01:32:47.000 And one of the problems with Jones now is that he's actually digging himself deeper, doing these things like where he said he was going to eat his neighbors and stuff.

01:32:54.000 Well, no, I mean, we just talked about it's like I think he was just saying that because, I mean, sure, he's he's a vibrant person, but at the same time, it's like You're not going to eat your neighbors, man.

01:33:05.000 Of course.

01:33:06.000 You know, he's saying it because he knows people are going to spread it around.

01:33:09.000 Exactly.

01:33:09.000 It did exactly that.

01:33:11.000 Alex Jones was trending probably on Twitter.

01:33:13.000 I mean, I'm not exactly sure, but yeah, he's putting himself out there.

01:33:16.000 But it's digging... Same with what he just said, you know, with Joe Rogan.

01:33:19.000 It's digging his hole deeper.

01:33:20.000 Hmm.

01:33:21.000 Because now... His conspiracy hole, you mean?

01:33:23.000 Well, no, I mean, like, he gets banned from all these platforms.

01:33:26.000 Because he's lying no no just because he says controversial bombastic things so then in order to get more attention

01:33:32.000 He gets even more controversial is that the word?

01:33:34.000 So there was a period after he started getting banned where he started toning the rhetoric down because he used to say

01:33:43.000 things like You know he almost said he was he was gonna kill somebody,

01:33:46.000 but he's like I will And then he stopped himself yeah, because he gets really

01:33:51.000 into that you know when he gets really excited and energetic

01:33:54.000 And he's like oh, I can't that's like that's really bad I can't say that hmm

01:33:57.000 but they definitely got him banned by taking a lot of things out of context and like taking his innuendo and

01:34:02.000 Metaphors take literally yeah, but it was more controversial

01:34:06.000 I think he got banned just from a PR campaign.

01:34:08.000 But anyway, long story short, YouTube... I don't think they wanted to ban him.

01:34:12.000 No?

01:34:13.000 No.

01:34:13.000 He was making a lot of money.

01:34:15.000 Which was making them a lot of money.

01:34:18.000 Yeah, they were getting a huge chunk from all of the views from his audience.

01:34:21.000 And the only reason they reacted was because when the advertisers said, we're pulling out, they probably had a meeting.

01:34:26.000 It's like a fight club, where he's like, if the cost of a recall is more than the cost of paying people out, we don't pay it.

01:34:32.000 They probably had a meeting and they were like, okay, how much do we make off Jones per month?

01:34:36.000 And it was probably in the millions, some ridiculous number.

01:34:39.000 And then they're like, and how much are we going to lose from the advertisers?

01:34:42.000 Two million.

01:34:43.000 Okay.

01:34:43.000 Ban them.

01:34:44.000 Yeah.

01:34:44.000 It's like, that sucks.

01:34:46.000 And then when they find out he's going to go on Rogan, they're like, Ooh, we'll catch it.

01:34:49.000 We'll cap.

01:34:50.000 We'll catch some of this.

01:34:51.000 It's going to be big.

01:34:52.000 And then it's 17 million views.

01:34:53.000 I don't even know how much money that is.

01:34:54.000 It's probably hundreds of thousands of dollars.

01:34:56.000 Yeah.

01:34:57.000 Hundreds of thousands of dollars.

01:34:58.000 That's a lot of views.

01:35:00.000 Yeah.

01:35:01.000 So, uh, I'm excited.

01:35:04.000 I think, I think the Spotify deal is going to be good things.

01:35:06.000 I think so too.

01:35:07.000 It's great for us.

01:35:09.000 Yeah.

01:35:10.000 We'll see what happens.

01:35:12.000 Should we go back to super chat?

01:35:13.000 So I'm like halfway through.

01:35:14.000 You know, I actually, I want to point out, man, I can't, I forget who actually super chatted this, but we were talking about Batman versus Superman.

01:35:21.000 And it was a really interesting point.

01:35:23.000 So yesterday we were talking about it, right?

01:35:25.000 So the point where he takes the spear and he's about to stab Superman.

01:35:29.000 Someone suggested that what he was doing was realizing that he had become the bad guy himself.

01:35:35.000 That he actually wanted to kill Superman.

01:35:37.000 Not that he was just trying to prove something to him.

01:35:40.000 And when he said Martha's name, it kind of reminded him that he's human.

01:35:48.000 That he has gone off the rails.

01:35:51.000 So it kind of made a little more sense.

01:35:53.000 You know what I mean?

01:35:54.000 And there's a, uh, they show, I think it's, um, I think it's Jason Todd's, uh, Robin uniform.

01:35:59.000 And it says, ha, ha, ha, the Joker, because the Joker killed.

01:36:02.000 I think, I think that's what it was.

01:36:03.000 Oh, okay.

01:36:03.000 And so apparently there was supposed to be some, like, I don't know if there was supposed to be, or there should have been what people, people have said explaining what made Batman turn so dark, where he would actually consider killing somebody because the Joker killed Robin.

01:36:19.000 In that universe?

01:36:20.000 In the movie.

01:36:23.000 In the movie you see him walk up and look at the uniform of Robin with the Joker's graffiti on it.

01:36:28.000 So to fans, they saw that and they knew.

01:36:32.000 It's a future where... And so it made him go, but the audience didn't get that.

01:36:37.000 And so they really had an opportunity to do that moment where he throws the spear and says, you're not invincible.

01:36:43.000 But you know, I get it.

01:36:43.000 Yeah.

01:36:44.000 I get it.

01:36:45.000 I thought it was a cool premise.

01:36:47.000 Yeah, it is.

01:36:48.000 I gotta watch that again.

01:36:49.000 Where did you guys leave off?

01:36:50.000 Were you having fun?

01:36:51.000 We were having fun.

01:36:52.000 Yeah, I got to be on camera.

01:36:53.000 It was very exciting.

01:36:55.000 The Botox.

01:36:55.000 Yeah, yeah, that's... James Wallace is the next one.

01:36:58.000 Alright.

01:36:59.000 James Wallace says, Spotify is going for the crown.

01:37:05.000 They are.

01:37:06.000 We're gonna have this period between September and until whenever it is that Joe, you know, does the full flip over.

01:37:11.000 Yeah.

01:37:12.000 Where the competition will be heavy.

01:37:14.000 Yeah.

01:37:14.000 Well, dude, this is going to be awesome, man.

01:37:16.000 I know.

01:37:17.000 I agree.

01:37:17.000 Because think about it this way.

01:37:18.000 Even next year, I'm going to put up a video, and YouTube's going to be like, hey, you can't say that name.

01:37:23.000 And I'll be like, oh, all right, let me call Spotify real quick.

01:37:26.000 And they'll be like, no, no, no, no, no, no, stop.

01:37:28.000 Wait, wait, wait, wait.

01:37:28.000 All right, all right, you can say it now, I guess.

01:37:30.000 And you know, actually, it's interesting.

01:37:32.000 You pointed out, because everyone's home right now in quarantine, and everyone's watching us, But I've also noticed everybody's doing podcasts.

01:37:40.000 I know.

01:37:40.000 All these celebrities are doing their own podcasts now.

01:37:43.000 They're not going to have the time to do these podcasts.

01:37:45.000 We're going to stay here.

01:37:47.000 We're doing the show.

01:37:48.000 So we're going to be around.

01:37:49.000 So I think it's about the same.

01:37:50.000 I don't know.

01:37:52.000 I just thought about that.

01:37:53.000 People are going to stop doing podcasts and go back to work and do their normal, whatever they're doing normally.

01:37:58.000 I've already seen, as the lockdowns start to ease, So when the lockdown started, my podcast numbers went down.

01:38:04.000 And that's podcast, not YouTube.

01:38:06.000 YouTube numbers went up and then down and then up because it really just, it's like the news, right?

01:38:11.000 Because they were fiddling with the algorithm, I think.

01:38:14.000 But podcast numbers went down by like 30% and I was like, whoa, you know why?

01:38:19.000 People weren't driving in their cars anymore.

01:38:20.000 They're in their car, they press play, they drive.

01:38:22.000 Listening to it as they drive.

01:38:23.000 Things have started spiking again.

01:38:26.000 Everything.

01:38:26.000 Revenue is coming back.

01:38:28.000 He's coming back.

01:38:29.000 Everything's coming back.

01:38:30.000 It's getting good.

01:38:32.000 But yeah, Ricky Gervais has been doing livestreams.

01:38:35.000 So it's like you got everybody doing livestreams and shows and podcasts and that's gonna go away when this lifts.

01:38:40.000 He's a funny guy.

01:38:41.000 He is, he's awesome.

01:38:42.000 But we'll see.

01:38:42.000 We'll see when it lifts.

01:38:45.000 I think you can see it in the metrics going away now.

01:38:48.000 I can see everything starting to improve.

01:38:49.000 I can't wait to go bowling!

01:38:50.000 I can't wait to go see a movie or something and just chill.

01:38:53.000 Go to a restaurant.

01:38:55.000 All right, let's see.

01:38:57.000 Wolfenkin says, I heard that Spotify are in bed with the ADL and the SPLC.

01:39:01.000 So is YouTube.

01:39:02.000 I wouldn't be surprised.

01:39:03.000 But I think the competition will best all of that.

01:39:05.000 What you got to understand about YouTube censorship is that where can anyone go?

01:39:12.000 Nowhere.

01:39:12.000 So these organizations go to YouTube and say, ban this person, their hate speech.

01:39:16.000 YouTube has no excuse when the stories come out and saying they wouldn't do it.

01:39:21.000 What's going to happen now is, like I said, that cost-benefit analysis, that cost-risk analysis, YouTube's going to be sitting there and have a meeting.

01:39:27.000 Okay, we want to ban Alex Jones.

01:39:28.000 How much money do we make?

01:39:30.000 We make, you know, a million bucks a month.

01:39:31.000 Okay, how much do we lose in advertising if he goes away?

01:39:34.000 We're going to lose two million.

01:39:36.000 And then what happens?

01:39:37.000 And then a bunch of other creators are going to jump ship with him to the other platform.

01:39:40.000 And they're going to go- So they're going to, cost analysis will- Add more people.

01:39:44.000 Yeah, and they'll lose way more.

01:39:46.000 Or, they'll say, we lose the money, but Spotify gains the money.

01:39:49.000 And then YouTube's gonna be like, and what's our projections?

01:39:51.000 Well, Spotify's growing at, you know, X percentage per year.

01:39:54.000 If we start losing our audience to them by censoring people, take a look at TikTok.

01:39:59.000 When TikTok started getting complaints for hate speech, you know what they did?

01:40:03.000 They banned the people being bullied, not the bullies.

01:40:05.000 Oh, that's right.

01:40:06.000 I remember that.

01:40:07.000 So there's an easy way to explain it.

01:40:09.000 There's a fat woman. 1.00

01:40:10.000 So weird.

01:40:11.000 Does a TikTok.

01:40:12.000 A bunch of people start mocking the person for being fat.

01:40:14.000 So TikTok banned the fat girl, not the people attacking her because they said, Why would we ban the 300 people instead of the one person?

01:40:23.000 It makes more sense.

01:40:24.000 Not morally.

01:40:27.000 Ethically.

01:40:27.000 It makes sense to them monetarily, maybe.

01:40:31.000 Made them the most money.

01:40:32.000 Right.

01:40:33.000 So I think right now, because YouTube has no competition, they're not concerned about losing.

01:40:38.000 But if you have Spotify dominating the podcast market, you have YouTube losing a large chunk of its mature audience, which it desperately needs.

01:40:46.000 YouTube, so the secret is if you're a 34 year old male, you are the power.

01:40:52.000 That's what YouTube and Fox and CNN are desperately trying to get.

01:40:56.000 34 year old men.

01:40:58.000 That's the golden, you know, identity or whatever.

01:41:02.000 The key demographic is like 20, 28 to like 35.

01:41:04.000 That's what they're aiming for.

01:41:07.000 If YouTube, not that they are going to lose Rogan, they're probably sitting there thinking like, hmm, how many people are going to go with him?

01:41:15.000 What's that going to do to us?

01:41:17.000 How much more are we going to have to spend subsidizing this?

01:41:20.000 And then if Spotify ends up winning this battle, what do we have left?

01:41:24.000 Spotify's going to host videos.

01:41:26.000 They did in the past.

01:41:27.000 They're going to do it in the future.

01:41:29.000 So I think you're going to start seeing some healthy competition.

01:41:33.000 I'm excited for it.

01:41:35.000 I'm glad it's happening.

01:41:38.000 It's the video push, man.

01:41:40.000 Jason says, it's so weird to see the progressives fighting for shutdown and the conservatives fighting for opening.

01:41:44.000 Historically, it's the other way around.

01:41:46.000 Everything seems to flip.

01:41:47.000 It doesn't make sense anymore.

01:41:49.000 Dim Sum Nim Sum says, I think how strictly you said not to say Voldemort's name really sink in with Joe.

01:41:56.000 But I don't think he realized how bad it was.

01:42:01.000 When I told him on the show, you can't say this name.

01:42:03.000 So I just told him, I was like, you realize that Rand Paul was on the Senate floor.

01:42:08.000 Saying this guy's name, talking about it.

01:42:09.000 Having nothing to do with the context of impeachment.

01:42:11.000 Right.

01:42:12.000 And they banned C-SPAN.

01:42:14.000 That's nuts.

01:42:15.000 Like, I don't think, you know... But, you know, Joe is concerned about censorship.

01:42:18.000 Yeah.

01:42:19.000 And I think he's seeing it more and more.

01:42:21.000 Like, it's really... He didn't realize when he had Jack Dorsey on what was going on.

01:42:26.000 Yeah.

01:42:26.000 And then he saw people, like, saying all this stuff and was like, whoa, what is this?

01:42:29.000 You know, what did I miss?

01:42:30.000 He's a comedian, man.

01:42:31.000 He's an MA commentator, so he's not into politics.

01:42:34.000 He is, but not the same as, you know, like, I would be.

01:42:38.000 So yeah, I think it did.

01:42:39.000 I think it did, you know, mean something.

01:42:40.000 But I also imagine he's been working on this deal for a long time.

01:42:43.000 I mean, come on.

01:42:43.000 Yeah.

01:42:43.000 Like the scale of the deal.

01:42:45.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:42:45.000 The size of his show.

01:42:46.000 He's probably had a bunch of lawyers.

01:42:47.000 Agreed.

01:42:48.000 Crypt Crack Attack says, Rogan, today, let's hope that PewDiePie is next.

01:42:52.000 Mm-hmm.

01:42:53.000 PewDiePie on Spotify?

01:42:55.000 Maybe?

01:42:55.000 If Spotify starts doing videos, man, that would be... How many million followers does PewDiePie have?

01:43:01.000 100.

01:43:03.000 I've never seen a PewDiePie video.

01:43:05.000 They're pretty good.

01:43:05.000 He just kind of does his thing.

01:43:07.000 He's just PewDiePie, you know?

01:43:09.000 Cool.

01:43:09.000 So he's done some really, really good videos.

01:43:12.000 He's done some philosophy videos, too.

01:43:13.000 Yeah, he did one on stoicism I still have to watch.

01:43:16.000 You haven't seen a video on stoicism?

01:43:18.000 I haven't, I know, I'm way behind.

01:43:19.000 But you're so stoic.

01:43:21.000 Did you remind everybody they had to smash that like button?

01:43:24.000 I did.

01:43:24.000 Excellent.

01:43:25.000 I did.

01:43:26.000 YouTube's broken right now, I can't see it.

01:43:28.000 Yeah.

01:43:29.000 We actually, you didn't know this, we hit 18,000 people today.

01:43:32.000 Dude, we did.

01:43:32.000 18?

01:43:33.000 Yeah.

01:43:33.000 What?

01:43:34.000 We hit 18k.

01:43:34.000 We're at almost 16 right now.

01:43:35.000 Really?

01:43:35.000 Yeah.

01:43:39.000 What are you guys doing?

01:43:41.000 They're hanging out with the coolest podcast on YouTube.

01:43:43.000 It's because we're talking about Alex Jones and Joe Rogan.

01:43:45.000 No.

01:43:46.000 Well, maybe.

01:43:47.000 Or we're just cool.

01:43:49.000 Well, hey man, guess what?

01:43:50.000 Those 2,000 people who left just missed that.

01:43:52.000 They did.

01:43:53.000 They missed the secret information we just got.

01:43:56.000 I was surprised.

01:43:57.000 I was like, did Joe not mention this before?

01:44:00.000 Yeah, I guess.

01:44:01.000 I don't know.

01:44:02.000 To me, that's huge.

01:44:03.000 Cool, you guys got the inside information right when he got back.

01:44:07.000 As we heard it, you heard it.

01:44:08.000 I had to ask Joe, I was like, wait, that's on the record.

01:44:11.000 He's like, yeah, bro, yeah.

01:44:13.000 I'm like, what?

01:44:15.000 Like, alright.

01:44:16.000 Like, while everybody's getting demonetized?

01:44:19.000 That's crazy, man.

01:44:19.000 Yeah, that is interesting.

01:44:21.000 They had a heads up.

01:44:23.000 Yeah, this one's good.

01:44:24.000 All the ranting, all the crazy, all of the stuff.

01:44:27.000 Wow, man.

01:44:28.000 Yeah, they wanted a piece of that money.

01:44:29.000 They did.

01:44:29.000 Because that's a lot of money.

01:44:31.000 They were like, yeah, we'll make that money.

01:44:33.000 Lou Bella says, West Virginia could use the revitalization you bring, and its topography makes it easy to social distance, but also contributes to its insular culture.

01:44:47.000 Internet is also spotty across the state.

01:44:49.000 I've done some checks on West Virginia.

01:44:52.000 There are so many people trying to influence where you move.

01:44:55.000 But I do want to be close to where we already are.

01:44:57.000 I agree.

01:44:59.000 I would like that too.

01:45:00.000 Yeah, the meme on Rogan's subreddit is RoganWorld.

01:45:03.000 RoganWorld?

01:45:05.000 He has this big deal now he can do whatever, like he can build a city or whatever.

01:45:08.000 Go make a spot somewhere?

01:45:09.000 Nah man, you know what people end up doing?

01:45:12.000 Sounds awesome though.

01:45:13.000 These are the things that I won't know having talked to him because there's certain questions you don't ask about a person's personal life and something like that.

01:45:21.000 You know, most people do boring stuff.

01:45:22.000 I'm not trying to, you know, it's no disrespect to him or Elon or anybody else.

01:45:26.000 I guess Elon's building spaceships, so he's one of the few people doing crazy stuff.

01:45:29.000 That's not really boring, yeah.

01:45:30.000 But I think you can see what somebody does.

01:45:33.000 And we know what Joe does.

01:45:34.000 He's going to keep doing it.

01:45:35.000 I don't think anything will change.

01:45:36.000 Yeah.

01:45:37.000 It's like Elon was building crazy stuff and then got money and started building more crazy stuff.

01:45:41.000 Yeah.

01:45:41.000 He makes flamethrowers and electric cars, you know.

01:45:44.000 It'd be cool, though.

01:45:46.000 All right, Napalm says, what if Democrats are keeping the lockdown to ruin the economy and blame Trump, while social media and mainstream news censors and covers for the DNC to prevent them from being blamed for the economy?

01:45:57.000 Too grandiose of a conspiracy for me.

01:45:59.000 I do think they're first and foremost scared of being blamed for it.

01:46:03.000 And I think some of them do see an opportunity to exploit this for personal gain.

01:46:07.000 And I think the media just falls in line.

01:46:10.000 That's it.

01:46:10.000 The media is just like, whatever the Democrats say, you know, that's what's popular with the audience.

01:46:14.000 Yep.

01:46:15.000 Seems that way.

01:46:16.000 SMU says, Tim, the reason you might have been wrong about the 2010 midterm results was because you are ignoring the fact that the Mueller probe was dragging on through that.

01:46:23.000 Not your predictions.

01:46:25.000 You were still spot on.

01:46:26.000 That's another, that's a really good point.

01:46:28.000 Now, at the time, a lot of people may have believed the Mueller stuff was real.

01:46:32.000 Yeah.

01:46:33.000 And then came out to vote.

01:46:35.000 And now that it's gone, people might not care.

01:46:38.000 Yeah, it's true.

01:46:40.000 Jeff Hardesty says if you use the horseshoe theory, the far left and right are both adjacent to the far right.

01:46:46.000 Not related to today's show, but I thought it was funny.

01:46:48.000 It is.

01:46:49.000 Zachary Tietjen.

01:46:51.000 Spotify is owned by Google, according to Jimmy Dore.

01:46:53.000 Isn't that true?

01:46:54.000 I don't know if that's true.

01:46:55.000 I don't know if that's true either.

01:46:56.000 Yeah, they wouldn't be competing, that wouldn't make sense.

01:46:58.000 But, I don't know.

01:46:59.000 Isn't Spotify a Swedish company?

01:47:00.000 I'm pretty sure, yeah.

01:47:02.000 Wax, thanks for becoming a member.

01:47:03.000 Thank you.

01:47:04.000 Graph Ontario says, at this point, I've long accepted Spotify as a lesser evil.

01:47:07.000 YouTube is getting worse, and I managed to join a promo where I got free Hulu quite a while back.

01:47:11.000 Hey, cool.

01:47:13.000 I mean, competition.

01:47:13.000 That's all that matters.

01:47:14.000 They can both be evil, but as long as they're forced to compete with each other, then it's going to be better for everybody.

01:47:20.000 Aaron says, I feel like Barney from How I Met Your Mother was the catalyst for making Cobra Kai.

01:47:26.000 Interesting.

01:47:26.000 I love that show.

01:47:27.000 It's a great show.

01:47:28.000 Andrew says, as a fairly right-wing person, your policies that may land on the left help me avoid confirmation bias.

01:47:33.000 I may not agree 100%, but your fairness and journalistic integrity are what keeps me watching.

01:47:37.000 I appreciate it.

01:47:38.000 Thank you.

01:47:39.000 Mark says, Mind over matter is very real but hard to achieve.

01:47:43.000 John Dempsey says, Love you.

01:47:44.000 Keep it up.

01:47:44.000 I will.

01:47:44.000 Thank you.

01:47:45.000 We all will.

01:47:46.000 The Hylian Juggalo. 0.96

01:47:48.000 Good on Joe.

01:47:48.000 I hope the Vinesauce people leave Twitch soon.

01:47:52.000 They're the only people on there worth watching.

01:47:54.000 Olivia says, Thanks for truth.

01:47:56.000 You listen every day and Alkaline Trio.

01:48:00.000 Awesome.

01:48:00.000 Alkaline Trio is great.

01:48:02.000 Mark says, AK-47 is the best gun.

01:48:04.000 Main reason?

01:48:04.000 Aliens don't invade.

01:48:06.000 Perhaps.

01:48:08.000 Chisholm says, two docs are grossly inaccurate.

01:48:10.000 I'll send that too.

01:48:12.000 Maybe the two doctors that were talking about the immune system in California.

01:48:16.000 So I think if your numbers are accurate on how many people we've had, it might get really difficult to go through all the superchats at this point.

01:48:23.000 Yeah, that's a lot.

01:48:24.000 Oh no, we're good.

01:48:25.000 We're okay.

01:48:26.000 Let's just rock them out.

01:48:28.000 We don't have that much time left.

01:48:29.000 Zai Yen says, how much money for a Beanie List stream?

01:48:33.000 I think the last number was 500,000?

01:48:34.000 Yep, 500,000.

01:48:34.000 Half a million.

01:48:35.000 Yep, half a million.

01:48:38.000 Magic Man says, YouTube is China-centric.

01:48:40.000 I will not be surprised.

01:48:41.000 Outlaw Bear says, safer advertisers means Big Pharma-friendly.

01:48:45.000 Who else buys ads on CNN or Fox?

01:48:47.000 Those commercials where they're like, is Florboestra good for you?

01:48:52.000 Contact your doctor and ask them.

01:48:53.000 Those commercials, they're so weird, right?

01:48:54.000 They're so weird.

01:48:55.000 And then they do all the side effects and this little...

01:49:00.000 diarrhea that this is a little of the world of it's like what does that even mean i got it

01:49:06.000 you don't talk about yeah they'll give you like the side effect of death by the

01:49:09.000 way this might kill you oh yes and also your eyes will bleed

01:49:13.000 your uh... skin might fall off in some areas but don't worry it'll stop you

01:49:17.000 from having a heartburn like what what's what's what's funny about the noise

01:49:23.000 why would i on like with without any prompt just randomly call my doctor and

01:49:26.000 be like is florida wester right for me And he's gonna be like, no, no, it's for like 80 year olds.

01:49:32.000 Or yes, because doctors get paid by those people too.

01:49:35.000 Yeah, that's true.

01:49:36.000 I don't know if that's still a thing.

01:49:37.000 I'm pretty sure it's still a thing though.

01:49:39.000 When I first got to California, I was on the Venice boardwalk and some guy stopped me and he was like yelling weed card, weed card.

01:49:46.000 And he was like, yo bro, bro, come here, come here.

01:49:47.000 And I was bored, I had nothing to do.

01:49:48.000 So I was like, what up?

01:49:49.000 And he's like, you got your weed card yet?

01:49:50.000 And I was like, no, what is that for weed?

01:49:54.000 Medicinal marijuana, man.

01:49:55.000 It's legal.

01:49:57.000 And I was like, no, no, I don't.

01:49:58.000 And he goes, but you're like sick, right?

01:50:01.000 And I was like, no, I'm actually OK.

01:50:02.000 You're sick.

01:50:03.000 He's like, no, but you're not a doctor.

01:50:04.000 You can't say that.

01:50:05.000 You don't know.

01:50:06.000 You got to see our doctor.

01:50:08.000 And I was like, but I got nothing to see the doctor about.

01:50:10.000 And he goes, Your feet hurt, and I was like the wall.

01:50:15.000 Did he stomp on your foot?

01:50:16.000 No, I was skateboarding I was like well like not right now, and he's like they hurt sometimes right and I was like I was like bro.

01:50:22.000 You see me holding a skateboard.

01:50:23.000 Whoa.

01:50:24.000 I'm not a doctor I'm a doctor gosh like your feet hurt sometimes.

01:50:27.000 He's like mmm.

01:50:27.000 You better see our doctor about that He's like five bucks to get a weed car you buy weed, and I'm like alright, dude.

01:50:31.000 Oh I'm gonna walk away.

01:50:34.000 I thought it was hilarious though.

01:50:36.000 He's right though.

01:50:37.000 I'm not a doctor.

01:50:39.000 I think I know how my feet are hurting though.

01:50:41.000 It's like I finished a session.

01:50:44.000 I do miss skating the Venice Boardwalk.

01:50:46.000 Venice is great.

01:50:47.000 I love it.

01:50:49.000 Cameron says, have five bucks, I would give more, but need to pay the king's tax to the Alphabet Boys to exercise my rights. 0.87

01:50:55.000 Unfortunate.

01:50:57.000 Vsidious says, consider Florida for your move.

01:50:59.000 Coast's not as hot as you'd think, and never a shortage of news, especially with Florida Man.

01:51:03.000 Florida Man not drinking and driving, just at stop signs.

01:51:06.000 Still a favorite.

01:51:07.000 We lived in Florida.

01:51:08.000 We did.

01:51:09.000 No dice.

01:51:10.000 No thank you.

01:51:12.000 Nope.

01:51:12.000 Swimming in the air.

01:51:13.000 It was really cool when it thunderstorms.

01:51:14.000 I have some good memories.

01:51:15.000 I have some bad memories.

01:51:16.000 It's like living in a jungle with a thunderstorm was cool.

01:51:19.000 Like, the amount of rain that poured down was insane.

01:51:21.000 But yeah, 100 degrees and max humidity, I'll pass.

01:51:24.000 Oh, I have huge news.

01:51:26.000 Did we mention the beanies yet?

01:51:27.000 No.

01:51:31.000 We may actually have these beanies.

01:51:34.000 Those exact beanies, everybody.

01:51:37.000 With the custom symbols available directly through the YouTube store.

01:51:43.000 Yeah.

01:51:44.000 So I'm waiting for confirmation.

01:51:46.000 I was told by someone working in this system, I'm trying to be vague, saying, I think we can source these and get everything ready and good to go for you.

01:51:54.000 We'll let you know by next week.

01:51:56.000 They said, we can let you know by tomorrow.

01:51:58.000 We'll try to do our best.

01:51:59.000 It might be next week.

01:51:59.000 And I was like, the sooner the better.

01:52:01.000 I was like, because we're going to sell, you know, 50,000 of these overnight.

01:52:05.000 Overnight?

01:52:06.000 Yeah.

01:52:06.000 I'm kidding.

01:52:08.000 I explained to them what we were looking for and they were like, here's what we have available.

01:52:12.000 And I said, I'd rather get it perfect.

01:52:13.000 And they said, maybe we can actually source a custom product.

01:52:16.000 And I was like, if you do this, you do this fast, it's on.

01:52:19.000 And they were like, you got it.

01:52:20.000 That'd be so cool.

01:52:21.000 Cool.

01:52:21.000 So then it would just be like a link under the video.

01:52:24.000 You'd see the beanie, just click the beanie on the video and boom, you get one.

01:52:27.000 That would be awesome.

01:52:27.000 Yeah.

01:52:28.000 That'd be awesome.

01:52:28.000 Yeah.

01:52:30.000 Grant says, along with the Canadian government's goal of monopoly force with their OIC firearm ban, we have police upgrading their armaments to 300 blackout in Quebec.

01:52:39.000 Meanwhile, we've banned more airsoft gear.

01:52:42.000 Yep.

01:52:43.000 Silly.

01:52:43.000 Mr. Schwagen says, everyone needs to wear a mask in public via public fiat for everyone's safety.

01:52:48.000 Wait, is that a hijab?

01:52:49.000 How dare you treat women like that? 1.00

01:52:52.000 Didactic says, I believe Joe is fighting censorship.

01:52:55.000 If Spotify opens their video platform for smaller creators, this can change everything and be a serious threat to YouTube.

01:53:01.000 Spotify is open for smaller creators with this camera.

01:53:03.000 You can actually very easily get your show on Spotify and everyone should do it.

01:53:08.000 So I use Buzzsprout, which is an RSS-like podcasting service.

01:53:14.000 And it very easily explains to you how to get on iTunes, how to get on Google, how to get on Spotify.

01:53:18.000 But puts them out there for you on all of them?

01:53:21.000 So what it does is it shows you how you sign up.

01:53:24.000 And then Spotify approves you.

01:53:24.000 Okay.

01:53:25.000 It takes like less than a day.

01:53:27.000 And then the hosting service I use puts my, like, what Spotify does is it calls to the link from my provider.

01:53:36.000 Okay.

01:53:37.000 So if you go to Spotify, open the app and go to podcasts and scroll down, you'll see the Tim Pool Daily Show.

01:53:44.000 I don't know if TPS IRL is there yet because we get a lot less views than IRL.

01:53:49.000 Yeah.

01:53:49.000 We get a lot of views on YouTube.

01:53:51.000 YouTube is like 20 to 30 times more views, like, in my experience.

01:53:55.000 Podcasts is weird.

01:53:56.000 It's funny because there are a lot of people I see who get ridiculously huge podcast downloads but nothing on YouTube.

01:54:02.000 Hmm.

01:54:03.000 Just different markets, I guess.

01:54:04.000 Yeah, maybe.

01:54:05.000 Hudson says, Ethan Klein and Pokimane have engaged in sponsor shaming, which will drive more content creators away from YouTube in light of Rogan's move to Spotify.

01:54:05.000 Yeah.

01:54:14.000 Really?

01:54:14.000 What's going on?

01:54:15.000 I'll have to look that up.

01:54:16.000 Jamie, thanks for the super chat.

01:54:16.000 I don't know about it.

01:54:18.000 Jason says, YouTube BPG.

01:54:20.000 Website is full of pron ads.

01:54:22.000 Yup.

01:54:23.000 Mark O'Brien says, Alex Jones is on shortwave radio sometimes.

01:54:26.000 Really?

01:54:28.000 Dwayne says, YouTube is trying to be themtube.

01:54:31.000 Users will not stick around for themtube.

01:54:32.000 We can get TV reposts on Hulu if we want them.

01:54:35.000 Bingo.

01:54:37.000 Eggman says, Metacafe gang, where we at?

01:54:40.000 Jeff at Large, check out I wear my face mask in my car.

01:54:44.000 Corey Hartsong parody at Media Bear YouTube channel.

01:54:47.000 Hilarious.

01:54:47.000 Is that like why I wear my sunglasses at night?

01:54:51.000 Justin O'Toole mentions that the Georgia man who filmed Ahmaud Arbery has been charged for murder and attempt, uh, he says false imprisonment, but I believe it's attempted false imprisonment.

01:54:59.000 That's crazy!

01:55:00.000 Just filmed it.

01:55:01.000 He was just filming it?

01:55:02.000 But they're arguing he was an accomplice, I guess?

01:55:02.000 The guy filming it?

01:55:05.000 Man, I don't believe in, I don't think justice matters when the public opinion is, is, is, is, is angry.

01:55:10.000 Yeah, that whole thing, man.

01:55:12.000 JV says, 32-year-old male here, thanks for the after-dinner entertainment.

01:55:15.000 You got it!

01:55:17.000 Oddball Gaming says, hey Tim, you are now my MSM. 0.99

01:55:19.000 This podcast is now quote-unquote morning news.

01:55:22.000 To work and first hour on the clock heading to the economic front.

01:55:22.000 Yay!

01:55:25.000 Appreciate it, man.

01:55:25.000 Awesome.

01:55:25.000 That's cool.

01:55:26.000 Stanley Desart says, bro, I've been waiting for a move like Joe to shift the power dynamics of the monopoly YouTube has.

01:55:26.000 Right on.

01:55:32.000 If it didn't have such a strong hold on video content, it'd be gone.

01:55:35.000 I pray censorship bites them.

01:55:37.000 It's all about the partnership program, man.

01:55:39.000 That is everything.

01:55:40.000 Yep.

01:55:41.000 If there was a platform that said, we will pay you, like a CPM, people would be like, I'm there.

01:55:47.000 But YouTube's the only one where it's like, you can have a career here.

01:55:51.000 And it's because they have a stranglehold on it.

01:55:53.000 Soob says, hey guys, huge fan here, keep up the great work.

01:55:56.000 Tim, did you know that your second channel isn't allowing people to hit the notification bell for kids content?

01:56:01.000 Wait.

01:56:02.000 Wait, what does that mean?

01:56:03.000 I don't know what that means.

01:56:04.000 Shouldn't be kids content anyway.

01:56:06.000 Hit the notification bell for kids content?

01:56:08.000 What?

01:56:08.000 Off a look into it.

01:56:09.000 No idea.

01:56:11.000 Huh.

01:56:11.000 D14 says, Ubisoft terms of service change.

01:56:14.000 Lady Lydia, pull it up please. 1.00

01:56:15.000 It's a huge breach of service and overreach.

01:56:17.000 Tim, you have the power to bring to light.

01:56:20.000 We will take a look into it.

01:56:21.000 Yeah, I don't know anything about it.

01:56:22.000 Yeah.

01:56:23.000 Sean Moore says, I'm a 30-year-old male.

01:56:25.000 10 years ago, I was at Occupy.

01:56:27.000 Tim, you might remember me.

01:56:28.000 I was the guy who worked there but still ate the free protest pizzas.

01:56:31.000 I don't remember.

01:56:32.000 I apologize.

01:56:34.000 Mark Robertshaw says, so YouTube is trying to be like a newspaper.

01:56:37.000 Apparently so.

01:56:39.000 Student of History.

01:56:40.000 The sun is about 400 times the size of the moon, but the moon is 400 times closer to us.

01:56:45.000 That's how they look the same.

01:56:46.000 We get eclipse.

01:56:47.000 Also, sometime in the future, we're going to lose the moon, and the sun will eat us.

01:56:52.000 Yep.

01:56:52.000 One inch a year.

01:56:53.000 There's a... I forgot what it's called.

01:56:55.000 It's a simulator for space.

01:56:57.000 It's one of the most fun games ever.

01:56:57.000 Okay.

01:56:59.000 Yeah, you can just like... Is it on a computer?

01:56:59.000 Cool.

01:57:01.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:57:02.000 I have it on my other computer.

01:57:03.000 Oh, okay.

01:57:03.000 And it's on Steam.

01:57:05.000 And it's probably called like Solar System Simulation or something.

01:57:08.000 People will probably point it out.

01:57:09.000 Sounds like fun.

01:57:10.000 You just... I would make Earth spin really, really fast.

01:57:13.000 Yeah, and then I increase the temperature and see what happens and decrease it.

01:57:18.000 And then if you increase the temperature too much, it explodes.

01:57:21.000 It's fun.

01:57:21.000 Oh, wow.

01:57:22.000 Is it realistic, though?

01:57:24.000 Yeah, you're watching everything move and you can speed things up.

01:57:27.000 And you can speed up the orbit of Earth and then watch it get slingshotted off our solar system and then just start drifting away.

01:57:35.000 That's awesome.

01:57:35.000 And then as it gets further away, you see the temperature start dropping rapidly.

01:57:38.000 Wow.

01:57:39.000 And then it turns to ice or something.

01:57:40.000 Oh, cool.

01:57:41.000 But I always like, uh, the fun is you can turn the sun into a black hole.

01:57:44.000 Wow.

01:57:44.000 You're just increasing the mass.

01:57:46.000 And then all of a sudden it just, it grows and grows and blows up and everything.

01:57:49.000 Yeah.

01:57:50.000 It's a fun game.

01:57:50.000 Cool.

01:57:51.000 I want to check that out.

01:57:51.000 It's fun.

01:57:52.000 Yeah.

01:57:52.000 Thanks for sending that our way though.

01:57:54.000 Yeah.

01:57:54.000 The statistics.

01:57:55.000 Universe Simulator, I think it's called.

01:57:56.000 Is that what it is?

01:57:57.000 Universe Sandbox?

01:57:58.000 Universe Sandbox 2, someone says.

01:58:01.000 Oh, maybe.

01:58:01.000 It's fun.

01:58:01.000 Maybe there's another one.

01:58:02.000 It's like, I'm going to move the sun over here and then all the planets just go straight in other directions.

01:58:07.000 That's fun.

01:58:07.000 Because there's no longer anything to orbit.

01:58:09.000 Yeah.

01:58:10.000 That's cool.

01:58:11.000 Ryan Vero says, do you have a Faraday cage for the bug out van?

01:58:14.000 Only thing in the world I'm worried about is solar outbursts.

01:58:18.000 No, but I'll get a big microwave and then I'll put a little microwave in it. 1.00

01:58:22.000 Yeah, that's a good point.

01:58:24.000 There could be a solar flare that could just knock us off.

01:58:27.000 I saw one of the largest solar flares recorded and its size comparison compared to the earth.

01:58:33.000 So if the earth is this big, it was like this big.

01:58:36.000 Yeah.

01:58:37.000 And it was like, whoa!

01:58:38.000 So if that hit us, I mean... Didn't we have one of those in like the 1800s?

01:58:41.000 I don't know.

01:58:42.000 But it was before we had a big electrical grid.

01:58:44.000 Yeah.

01:58:45.000 Before we heavily relied on technology, yeah.

01:58:47.000 Who knows?

01:58:47.000 Yep.

01:58:49.000 Stanley says, I'm gone from YouTube ASAP.

01:58:51.000 I hate YouTube.

01:58:52.000 Yeah.

01:58:54.000 SDFU says, fun video rabbit hole.

01:58:56.000 San Juan Island pig war.

01:58:57.000 It was the only war in the history of the U.S.

01:58:59.000 that resulted in the loss of territory by the U.S.

01:59:01.000 Really?

01:59:02.000 Interesting.

01:59:04.000 Maxim says, don't ever stop what you're doing.

01:59:06.000 We are the revolution and you are leading it.

01:59:08.000 I'm a dude in his room complaining on the Internet about his feelings.

01:59:12.000 But if you want to call me the leader of a revolution, I'll take it, I suppose.

01:59:16.000 Blaine says Bitcoin is going to skyrocket to 100,000 by the end of 2021.

01:59:20.000 Time to buy is now.

01:59:22.000 I was thinking about it.

01:59:23.000 I think so.

01:59:24.000 But I also think that it's exactly what, like, the conspiracy theorists don't understand how good Bitcoin is for the global, you know, Illuminati, whatever they think it is.

01:59:33.000 Okay.

01:59:34.000 A system where every transaction can be traced?

01:59:37.000 Yeah.

01:59:37.000 Yeah, so they have to know your address.

01:59:40.000 Yeah, they'll have an AI, or not even an AI, just a computer that can calculate all of the different movements.

01:59:46.000 They'll easily, using metadata, identify you.

01:59:48.000 And then they'll know everything you spend all your money on.

01:59:50.000 And of course, we just talked about a solar flare that could technically erase all of the bitcoins.

01:59:58.000 Yeah.

01:59:58.000 And it's like, oh, suddenly there's no electronics anymore.

02:00:00.000 Sci-fi Fight Club ending.

02:00:02.000 Like, the poles just shifted because of this major solar flare and now we have to rebuild everything.

02:00:07.000 Now we have no money.

02:00:08.000 Yeah.

02:00:09.000 Who knows?

02:00:10.000 Brewmaster says, speaking of being censored, I have been told to rewrite plenty of my superchats because they tip off filters.

02:00:16.000 The comments in question are based and nose-pilled related.

02:00:22.000 Yeah, I've had people mention that in superchat several times.

02:00:25.000 Certain words don't appear.

02:00:26.000 I actually tried superchatting when we were on the road, and I said something like, don't touch my effing UFO because you moved it, and it didn't come up.

02:00:35.000 I totally moved it.

02:00:36.000 It wouldn't let me swear.

02:00:39.000 Oh, interesting.

02:00:40.000 That would have been fun to get a comment by.

02:00:41.000 Yep.

02:00:42.000 Graf Von Tirol says, imagine that.

02:00:44.000 A time when going to Vice was a big deal.

02:00:46.000 It's a real shame they don't have anything like those old documentaries anymore.

02:00:50.000 Yeah, maybe they will in the future.

02:00:52.000 Scientist Solarian says, Tim, you should move to North Alabama.

02:00:56.000 Huntsville suburbs have NASA, Space and Rocket Center, Redstone Arsenal, and it is literally 8th safest county in country.

02:01:04.000 Everyone is so friendly, and we could jam.

02:01:07.000 We will see where we end up.

02:01:08.000 But of course, everybody wants me to go, you know.

02:01:10.000 John Wall says, have you guys heard of the Wikipedia Hitler game?

02:01:13.000 You click the random article button on the left, and then use the links in the articles to go to other Wikipedia articles until you get to Hitler, and it's like six links.

02:01:21.000 Gets you there every time.

02:01:22.000 Seriously?

02:01:22.000 Six degrees of Hitler?

02:01:23.000 Yeah.

02:01:24.000 Yup.

02:01:24.000 It's like every single time, no matter what, it brings you there.

02:01:26.000 What?

02:01:28.000 It's weird.

02:01:29.000 Try it right now on your computer.

02:01:30.000 Eh, I'm good.

02:01:33.000 BaneTrump says the guy that was ripped was on roids and could not do a PCT once he was hospitalized.

02:01:39.000 That's why he lost so much weight.

02:01:40.000 No juicing in hospital either.

02:01:45.000 KiteTheTwinBlade says a la South Park, I'm going to decline that software update.

02:01:51.000 Bobcat says, you can already track who you have come into contact with through their cell phones.

02:01:56.000 Look up Brendan O'Connor creepy DOL work.

02:01:58.000 It's similar to some work I've been doing lately.

02:02:00.000 Interesting.

02:02:01.000 Mark G says, Adam, you might be reading the wrong notes, I think.

02:02:04.000 Go to settings, general, software updates, learn more, and it's the third paragraph.

02:02:08.000 Love the show.

02:02:09.000 Interesting.

02:02:10.000 That's exactly where I was.

02:02:12.000 I still have it open, actually, right here.

02:02:13.000 Let's see the third paragraph.

02:02:15.000 No?

02:02:16.000 No, I mean... Maybe because you have an older phone.

02:02:18.000 Yeah, maybe.

02:02:19.000 Maybe it can't... Maybe it's too... Oh, you know what?

02:02:21.000 I think you have the 7?

02:02:22.000 Yeah.

02:02:22.000 It doesn't have NFC.

02:02:24.000 What's that?

02:02:24.000 Near Field Communications.

02:02:26.000 That might be it, yeah.

02:02:27.000 But maybe not.

02:02:28.000 I'd imagine they would use Bluetooth or something.

02:02:30.000 Yeah, I don't know.

02:02:30.000 Yeah.

02:02:32.000 Let's see.

02:02:32.000 Corey says, when does Soy Jesus ride at the head of 10,000 vegan saints to pass judgment on the fake news and censorship of the world?

02:02:41.000 Oh, man.

02:02:42.000 I think that's one of the biggest things that differentiate me being a vegan from most vegans.

02:02:47.000 People like the stereotypical vegan.

02:02:49.000 I don't pass judgment.

02:02:51.000 I mean, obviously, that's what this show is, is us judging everything.

02:02:55.000 Complaining, judging.

02:02:56.000 No, I don't judge people for what they eat.

02:02:58.000 As far as like, you can eat whatever you want, like whatever.

02:03:01.000 It's not going to affect me.

02:03:02.000 I'm not going to get triggered because you're a meat eater.

02:03:04.000 There's authoritarian veganism and libertarian veganism.

02:03:06.000 Okay, eat a steak.

02:03:07.000 Fine.

02:03:08.000 My dad makes the best steaks ever.

02:03:10.000 I don't eat steak right now, but I can still say that.

02:03:13.000 Like, whatever.

02:03:14.000 Okay.

02:03:14.000 Yeah, you can go on the political compass and be libertarian or authoritarian.

02:03:17.000 They'll add vegan to the political compass somewhere.

02:03:19.000 Yeah.

02:03:19.000 I'm more of like his main general, you know, that happens to be vegan.

02:03:25.000 Because you're the leader.

02:03:27.000 So the other super jet just said, you're the leader of the revolution.

02:03:30.000 So I'll be sitting in the back on a golden throne with an angry scowl on my face.

02:03:35.000 Okay.

02:03:35.000 Whoa, whoa, whoa.

02:03:37.000 You don't want to become the villain though, man.

02:03:39.000 No, no, no, hold on, hold on.

02:03:40.000 And then there's going to be two pegasi?

02:03:43.000 Pegasuses?

02:03:44.000 I think that's it, pegasi.

02:03:45.000 Pegasi?

02:03:45.000 Yeah.

02:03:46.000 And they're gonna have, uh, like, uh, you know, harnesses that both go up together, and you're gonna be having one foot on each of them, with a sword in one hand, and you're gonna be riding, and there's gonna be, like, you know, the Valkyrie coming in.

02:03:56.000 Awesome.

02:03:57.000 Alright, alright.

02:03:58.000 Now that is a picture I wanna see.

02:03:59.000 Huh?

02:04:00.000 Huh?

02:04:00.000 Somebody, hook me up.

02:04:02.000 Jonathan Young says, I've had recommendations for this channel all day.

02:04:06.000 I've never had recommendations for your channel that I can remember.

02:04:09.000 Something happened, man.

02:04:10.000 Well, we got that checkmark.

02:04:12.000 Ooh, magical.

02:04:13.000 Yeah, we got a checkmark.

02:04:15.000 I wonder if this Joe Rogan thing has spooked YouTube.

02:04:18.000 I got you, chat.

02:04:18.000 Dude, didn't we just get the checklist the other day?

02:04:21.000 Last night.

02:04:21.000 And Rogan, that's the same day Rogan made the announcement?

02:04:24.000 Was it?

02:04:25.000 Or was it last night?

02:04:27.000 No, it might have been two nights ago.

02:04:28.000 I don't know.

02:04:29.000 We just noticed last night.

02:04:31.000 We're like, wait a minute, what?

02:04:33.000 Somebody said, whoa, did they just get that?

02:04:35.000 Yeah.

02:04:35.000 Around the same time, all I can say is Rogan announces a Spotify thing.

02:04:39.000 They want to make it official.

02:04:41.000 You guys are official.

02:04:42.000 Imagine this.

02:04:43.000 Don't leave us.

02:04:46.000 Imagine like you're watching a movie and it starts with a guy and you see him at a phone booth.

02:04:50.000 Yeah.

02:04:50.000 Phone booths exist.

02:04:52.000 And then he hangs up and he goes, my God, And then he's running and he's got like manila folders and he's wearing like a blue button up with a tie.

02:04:57.000 Papers are flying out.

02:04:58.000 And he's running as fast as he can.

02:05:00.000 And then it's like the scene change shows him.

02:05:01.000 He runs in the building, he storms in.

02:05:03.000 He runs to the elevator, he hits the button.

02:05:04.000 And then he's like, which floor is Susan at?

02:05:06.000 And they're like, what?

02:05:07.000 Susan, which floor?

02:05:08.000 And they're like, 17!

02:05:08.000 And he's like, just hitting the button.

02:05:11.000 He gets up and he runs and he slams a thing down.

02:05:12.000 It's a newspaper and it says, Rogan to Spotify.

02:05:15.000 And she goes, how much time do we have?

02:05:17.000 And he's like, I don't know.

02:05:19.000 Months?

02:05:20.000 And then she goes, Verify as many commentary channels as you can.

02:05:23.000 That's funny.

02:05:26.000 If only.

02:05:27.000 Although there was a missed opportunity there with the elevator music.

02:05:32.000 I was expecting a little break of maybe a little Spanish Flea or something.

02:05:37.000 Nice.

02:05:39.000 So my phone doesn't have Face ID.

02:05:41.000 Thanks for the super chat.

02:05:42.000 Michelle Mybel says, looking at my 13.5 update and it does say COVID-19 contact tracing.

02:05:47.000 And now the face ID will know what you look like.

02:05:50.000 Oh, so my phone doesn't have face ID.

02:05:53.000 My phone is just prior.

02:05:55.000 Yes!

02:05:56.000 I love my phone!

02:05:57.000 It's time to downgrade.

02:06:00.000 Or stay where my phone is.

02:06:02.000 You're good.

02:06:02.000 You're gonna last me forever.

02:06:04.000 I mean, I'm good.

02:06:05.000 They send me ads all the time like, get the new phone!

02:06:08.000 And I'm like, why?

02:06:08.000 My phone's great.

02:06:10.000 I'm good.

02:06:11.000 I don't need a new phone.

02:06:12.000 James Wallace says, Tim and Adam and Lydia, does a VPN block the new iOS tracking app asking for a friend?

02:06:19.000 I hope so.

02:06:20.000 For your friend.

02:06:21.000 I don't think so.

02:06:22.000 I doubt it though, yeah.

02:06:23.000 If you used a VPN, what it basically does is it sends your data through an encrypted tunnel before reaching the web.

02:06:28.000 So it gives you a shield.

02:06:30.000 It can help anonymize your data.

02:06:32.000 But if they know your device's information, it doesn't matter if it goes through a tunnel to the internet.

02:06:37.000 They know your device, they know where it is.

02:06:40.000 You're still getting a phone signal from somewhere to that point.

02:06:44.000 Yeah.

02:06:45.000 Scientist Salarian says, I am the very model of a Scientist Salarian.

02:06:49.000 I've studied species Turian, Asari, and Batarian.

02:06:53.000 I am the very model of a Scientist Salarian.

02:06:55.000 If you guys know this song and understand my names, props.

02:06:58.000 I don't.

02:06:59.000 Sorry.

02:07:00.000 I'm a little bummed that none of us know it.

02:07:04.000 No, I don't know.

02:07:04.000 a major model of a modern major general song or whatever?

02:07:07.000 No, I don't know.

02:07:08.000 Yeah, I have no idea.

02:07:09.000 Shame on us.

02:07:11.000 Bane Trump says ripped guy was on roids and could not keep judging.

02:07:16.000 Did this duplicate? I think it duplicated.

02:07:18.000 Graff Von Tirol says encouraging news on the Barber's legal challenge against the

02:07:21.000 tyrannical Karens of Michigan. 0.58

02:07:22.000 Time to celebrate this occasion with a UFO spin.

02:07:25.000 Did you spin it for him?

02:07:26.000 I just spun it.

02:07:27.000 That's weird.

02:07:28.000 No, I didn't spin it for you, but I will spin it for you.

02:07:31.000 He's making the request.

02:07:32.000 You know what?

02:07:32.000 We have to do it.

02:07:33.000 You make a super chat to spin.

02:07:35.000 We're going to spin.

02:07:35.000 It's going to fly off into the atmosphere.

02:07:38.000 Ella Bella says, we already have the COVIDSafe app in Australia.

02:07:41.000 It wasn't mandatory, but they sent messages to people asking them to download it.

02:07:44.000 Australia is really going crazy in the pandemic.

02:07:47.000 Wow.

02:07:48.000 Got it really spinning for you.

02:07:49.000 Ryan says, yay, Adam Kass has returned.

02:07:51.000 Oh, this is right around the time I was like, my phone rang, and it said Joe Rogan.

02:07:54.000 You were like, peace!

02:07:56.000 I was almost going to not answer, because I was like... No, it's Joe Rogan.

02:07:59.000 You've got to answer, Joe Rogan.

02:08:00.000 No, no, no, no.

02:08:01.000 Yes, yes, yes, yes.

02:08:04.000 No.

02:08:04.000 Yes.

02:08:06.000 We're doing a show.

02:08:07.000 We're doing a show.

02:08:08.000 We are at work.

02:08:09.000 How unprofessional of you.

02:08:10.000 And it rang, and I had to think, Am I going to jump off this show where we've got all these people watching, relying on... There was like 17,000 people at that point.

02:08:19.000 I know.

02:08:20.000 And my phone rang and I was like, take the Super Chats because... I'm surprised a lot of people, there was a big jump or drop there, but people knew you were waiting for, like you were trying to listen to Joe and talk to him.

02:08:32.000 You didn't say it.

02:08:34.000 I actually said it, but yeah, you know, it was like, obviously it was Joe Rogan.

02:08:37.000 Should we wait for me to come back?

02:08:38.000 Yeah.

02:08:39.000 And then we found the, we got the inside scoop.

02:08:42.000 Yeah, it was cool.

02:08:43.000 It's not that exciting.

02:08:44.000 Life's never that exciting, you know.

02:08:45.000 I always tell people... Life is exciting.

02:08:47.000 Let's make it exciting.

02:08:49.000 What did I do?

02:08:49.000 I took George Carlin's saying.

02:08:51.000 What is it?

02:08:52.000 Think about how stupid the average person is.

02:08:54.000 Right.

02:08:54.000 And what I said on the show before was, think about how boring life is.

02:08:59.000 Yeah.

02:08:59.000 Now realized half of the news stories have been sensationalized and it's even more boring than you realize.

02:09:03.000 Oh, yeah.

02:09:03.000 Yeah.

02:09:04.000 It's kind of exciting.

02:09:06.000 All right.

02:09:06.000 Cordfunk says, when you erase history, you are doomed to repeat it.

02:09:09.000 Absolutely.

02:09:10.000 Logan Porter says, you guys should release an album for your songs titled The Beanie Bros.

02:09:14.000 It's complicated.

02:09:15.000 Also, thanks for what you guys do.

02:09:16.000 I really appreciate it.

02:09:17.000 Thank you.

02:09:17.000 For sure.

02:09:18.000 Cool.

02:09:18.000 Neocarbine says, planned obsolescence.

02:09:20.000 They will slowly cripple your old phone with updates, making it slow and unusable, and force you to buy a new phone with the new update.

02:09:26.000 And I'm pretty sure that Apple had to settle a lawsuit or something about this.

02:09:30.000 Right.

02:09:30.000 Yeah.

02:09:31.000 Because they were doing it on purpose.

02:09:32.000 Yep.

02:09:33.000 Yep.

02:09:35.000 K98killer says, Adam, have you looked into score voting slash score runoff voting?

02:09:40.000 Possibly only way to fix our broken democracy. 0.83

02:09:42.000 Equal vote slash science.

02:09:44.000 I haven't.

02:09:45.000 I should check that out.

02:09:46.000 We'll check it out.

02:09:47.000 Mark says, cigars, vodka, and Timcast IRL.

02:09:49.000 Perfect.

02:09:50.000 Sounds like a good night.

02:09:51.000 Yeah.

02:09:52.000 Sarah Hill says, does China own YouTube?

02:09:54.000 The censorship and manipulation of search results seems to lead to such a conclusion.

02:09:58.000 They just need healthy competition.

02:09:59.000 That's it.

02:10:00.000 Yeah, who knows?

02:10:01.000 Deplorable Pirate Captain Gunbeard.

02:10:03.000 A point no one has mentioned.

02:10:04.000 The longer blue states stay locked down, the more wealth and power transfer to red states. 0.55

02:10:09.000 This is what I don't understand.

02:10:10.000 They're propping up the red states?

02:10:12.000 Yeah, someone pointed this out in Super Chats earlier.

02:10:14.000 They're like, how are all the tax revenue from businesses?

02:10:18.000 They're gonna lose that.

02:10:19.000 Yep.

02:10:20.000 Don't they realize that?

02:10:21.000 They're demanding a bailout from the federal government.

02:10:23.000 Where's that money coming from?

02:10:24.000 Trump said no.

02:10:25.000 That's also taxes! 0.99

02:10:27.000 Like, it's a circular system.

02:10:29.000 Like, what?

02:10:29.000 It doesn't make sense.

02:10:31.000 The red states are going to come out of this clean and prosperous.

02:10:34.000 Yes, they are.

02:10:34.000 That's crazy, man.

02:10:35.000 It's true.

02:10:36.000 Let's see.

02:10:36.000 Poma says, guys, why are you so optimistic and overconfident about all this Rogan leaving stuff?

02:10:42.000 Even Joe's nine million audience is just a range up in an ocean of active users on this cursed platform.

02:10:48.000 YouTube is no longer interested in independent creators, even the biggest ones.

02:10:52.000 I think we kind of answered that already.

02:10:55.000 It's the spirit of competition.

02:10:57.000 Competition breeds development.

02:11:00.000 Look at just technology in general.

02:11:02.000 We were talking about, I think yesterday, Europe had competition over land, so they advanced so much faster technologically.

02:11:10.000 Versus the Americas, they just moved. 0.98

02:11:13.000 There was so much land, they just kept moving around.

02:11:17.000 You could see the spike.

02:11:18.000 In the animal kingdom, the more freedom of movement an animal has, the less likely it is to be aggressive.

02:11:28.000 So birds don't fight for the most part, they just leave.

02:11:30.000 Yeah, just fly away.

02:11:31.000 But badgers are aggressive because they're burrow animals, so when they get into a conflict, they have one direction they can move.

02:11:36.000 So they'll fight you.

02:11:37.000 It's ingrained.

02:11:40.000 I'm optimistic.

02:11:41.000 I am too.

02:11:42.000 I think now it's going to come to a point, like we mentioned earlier, where YouTube is only weighing the negative press.

02:11:48.000 Hey, we're going to lose money from this.

02:11:49.000 Now they're going to have to weigh, we're going to lose money, Spotify's going to take it from us, and then they're going to beat us to the finish line.

02:11:56.000 And Spotify's going to get more powerful, more popular.

02:12:00.000 They don't want that.

02:12:01.000 And it's not even about independent creators, because I agree, YouTube doesn't really care, but it's going to be, look, Joe Rogan may be independent, but he's a world-famous comedian.

02:12:11.000 Imagine if, you know, Netflix is trying to buy these world-famous comedians.

02:12:14.000 Do a special, we'll give you all this money, like, you know, Dave Chappelle got a ridiculous amount of money for his special.

02:12:19.000 He did like, you know, I think, I don't know how many specials, he had three?

02:12:21.000 It was like three, yeah, I think.

02:12:22.000 And so now YouTube can't get access to that.

02:12:25.000 YouTube wants to be Netflix.

02:12:26.000 I know because a Google employee told me this to my face.

02:12:31.000 I was in the Google HQ several years ago.

02:12:34.000 And they said, our main competition is Netflix.

02:12:36.000 We are losing views to Netflix.

02:12:38.000 They want Netflix.

02:12:39.000 That makes sense, yeah.

02:12:40.000 So they have an opportunity.

02:12:42.000 But, if they start censoring their independent creators, and Joe Rogan, who they want because they want to be Netflix, decides to leave because of it, then they have to do right by the smaller creators.

02:12:54.000 We'll see, we'll see.

02:12:57.000 Steve Fernald says, do any of you grow your own vegetables?

02:13:02.000 Hot peppers?

02:13:03.000 Yeah, we do.

02:13:04.000 We are growing our own vegetables right now.

02:13:06.000 We have a whole little garden.

02:13:07.000 We actually have a bunch of strawberries right now.

02:13:10.000 Radishes.

02:13:10.000 We have tomatoes.

02:13:11.000 We pulled up all our radishes.

02:13:12.000 I think we've already eaten those.

02:13:14.000 We have carrots, I have peas, and we have potatoes.

02:13:17.000 Wow.

02:13:17.000 I would like to do peppers, too, though.

02:13:18.000 That'd be fun.

02:13:19.000 And onions.

02:13:19.000 We've got some onions going.

02:13:20.000 Yeah, we've got green onions, yeah.

02:13:21.000 We did have a bunch of peppers, and then someone tried to pickle them, and they pickled them improperly.

02:13:29.000 Yeah.

02:13:30.000 The Great Death Throne.

02:13:33.000 We need uncensored reporting like this.

02:13:35.000 Keep it up.

02:13:35.000 I support you.

02:13:36.000 Thank you very much.

02:13:37.000 Ryan Roste says, people need to learn about blockchain and crypto.

02:13:41.000 It will set us free.

02:13:42.000 Anything can be secure and private without centralization and third parties.

02:13:45.000 The power will be in the hands of the people.

02:13:48.000 Absolutely.

02:13:48.000 I'm gonna take a quick stop and say, if you haven't already, make sure you're following me on Instagram and Twitter for, you know, my usual shenanigans.

02:13:55.000 But follow Adam as well, at Adam Krigler, because you can send him story ideas and requests, and then we actually pick them up for the show.

02:14:02.000 So, again, at Adam Krigler, at Timcast, and then you can follow at Sour Patch Lids.

02:14:07.000 Yeah.

02:14:07.000 With an Y. It's right there.

02:14:09.000 Sour Patch Lids.

02:14:10.000 And, uh, smash that like button. 0.81

02:14:12.000 Smash it! 0.54

02:14:13.000 Smash it! 0.54

02:14:14.000 Gently.

02:14:15.000 It does help.

02:14:17.000 If things are going to start improving on this network, on YouTube, if things are getting better, then hopefully the likes really do help.

02:14:24.000 I think they do.

02:14:25.000 But more importantly, shares.

02:14:26.000 Yeah, please share.

02:14:27.000 You can censor somebody all you want, but if YouTube's trying to shadowban, and people are sharing that link, that's what I asked for when my video got shadowbanned.

02:14:34.000 I said, just share this video, don't let them do it.

02:14:36.000 It worked.

02:14:36.000 Dion says, which one would you pick?

02:14:37.000 If you could ride a dinosaur, a triceratops, or a tamed raptor?

02:14:40.000 were like share this video awesome right on Dion says which which one would you

02:14:46.000 pick if you could ride a dinosaur a triceratops or a tamed raptor

02:14:51.000 triceratops um raptors are the size of chickens I believe oh they're that small

02:14:57.000 Yeah.

02:14:57.000 They're tiny.

02:14:58.000 Oh.

02:14:59.000 I'm pretty sure raptors are tiny.

02:15:00.000 Triceratops though.

02:15:01.000 Yeah.

02:15:02.000 And I also think they're from dramatically different time periods too.

02:15:06.000 Oh yeah?

02:15:07.000 Like tens of millions of years apart.

02:15:09.000 Cool.

02:15:09.000 I don't know enough about dinosaurs I guess.

02:15:11.000 Sorry I ruined your fun joke.

02:15:13.000 Joshua says, Millennial Matt circumcised Tim Poole's four beanie.

02:15:17.000 That he did.

02:15:18.000 Okay.

02:15:19.000 Angel Rodriguez says, Adam, the Star Wars edits are from George Lucas.

02:15:22.000 He edited the movie to be different multiple times.

02:15:24.000 There are multiple versions of the first Star Wars, and we getting the mythical Soi Bowie tomorrow.

02:15:30.000 Mythical Soi Bowie?

02:15:32.000 What is that?

02:15:33.000 I don't know what that is, but... David Bowie?

02:15:35.000 David Bowie version?

02:15:35.000 Yes, I know who David Bowie is, but... You remember?

02:15:38.000 They sent a picture of David Bowie wearing a dress?

02:15:41.000 Huh.

02:15:42.000 Oh, oh, bringing back to the dress.

02:15:45.000 Oh, yes.

02:15:46.000 Oh, now it makes sense.

02:15:47.000 Yeah, there you go.

02:15:49.000 You guys are going to have to start a petition for that.

02:15:51.000 That's going to be at least half a million dollars, I think, don't you?

02:15:54.000 No, no, probably not that much.

02:15:58.000 I'll wear a dress for $100,000.

02:15:59.000 I think we're going to have to speed things up, man.

02:16:06.000 Oh wow, we're already over $15,000.

02:16:08.000 I mean, this was a huge show.

02:16:15.000 I really appreciate everyone showing up today.

02:16:16.000 Thank you guys.

02:16:17.000 But we're going to have to skip your Super Chats.

02:16:20.000 Unfortunately, if you're under a certain amount, we're going to move it along.

02:16:24.000 I will be the first to say I'm sorry we do it this way, but it's kind of like the easiest and only way to really get through it.

02:16:29.000 Yeah, sorry everybody.

02:16:29.000 But we get to a certain point, and I think it's around like once there's about 8,000 concurrent viewers, the live streams come in faster than we can actually read and comment on them.

02:16:37.000 Yeah, exactly.

02:16:37.000 And what ends up happening is we just speed read everything, and it's just not even worth it.

02:16:43.000 So the easiest way to actually deal with it is I just start going for things that are 10 or more, and then if people actually start spending more, it's like the same problem.

02:16:52.000 There's some hefty superchats, so we gotta get to those for sure.

02:16:55.000 I don't want to take away someone's right to speak simply because they weren't giving us all that money, you know what I mean?

02:16:59.000 True.

02:17:00.000 No, you're right.

02:17:01.000 I hate how the system works, but the unfortunate reality is you guys, we just get too many, and we would not be able to read them in time.

02:17:10.000 I did like a four-hour livestream once because they were coming in too much, and I was like, I'm gonna read them all.

02:17:15.000 And then eventually it got late in the night, and the views went down, and then I was like, okay, okay, I made it through.

02:17:20.000 But we're going to speed up now, so I apologize to you guys for your superchats that we don't get to.

02:17:24.000 Ellen Jones says, Tim and Alex are also Steven Crowder adjacent.

02:17:29.000 What would the odds be of Tim being on Alex's show as a guest, or vice versa?

02:17:34.000 Because I won't travel, probably not in studio or anything like that, but I did go on InfoWars a while ago, several years ago.

02:17:40.000 Oh, cool.

02:17:41.000 Philip, thanks for becoming a member.

02:17:42.000 Thank you.

02:17:43.000 Scientist Salarian says, you guys ever listen to the band TV on the radio?

02:17:46.000 Check out the albums Dear Science and Return to Cookie Mountain and songs DMZ, Wolf Like Me, and so many more.

02:17:51.000 They are for rocking black dudes. 1.00

02:17:54.000 I like that band.

02:17:55.000 They're good.

02:17:56.000 Isn't Alabama muggy also, though?

02:17:56.000 I would love to be more involved in science and space and stuff.

02:17:59.000 Alabama youthful vibe cool music scene lots of engineer science tech folks because of NASA and redstone arsenal

02:18:04.000 cost-effective land building is easy It's a cool place isn't Alabama muggy also though

02:18:09.000 Yeah But that actually does sound like a good idea would be cool

02:18:13.000 to be really close to NASA Engineers because we could do crazy stuff like I want to do

02:18:16.000 a channel. I would love to be more Here's my idea science and space and stuff. I have an idea

02:18:22.000 stuff. I have an idea. Do you have an idea?

02:18:23.000 I have an idea.

02:18:24.000 Just one idea?

02:18:24.000 One.

02:18:25.000 Okay.

02:18:25.000 And if you guys want to steal this idea, okay, make sure you do this under the supervision of professionals, and I recommend only engineers, so do not do this at home, but here's my idea.

02:18:35.000 We take objects, and we electrocute them, but the voltage or whatever is determined by the amount of

02:18:43.000 viewers or likes or shares or something.

02:18:46.000 So basically you have like a thousand viewers, you're getting a certain amount of volts going

02:18:50.000 through the object and then people watch and then over time they're going to be like,

02:18:54.000 share this we need to get more viewers, we need to get more viewers, and then you end up with like...

02:18:57.000 I think that's a good idea that we should probably do.

02:19:00.000 Short circuit the block.

02:19:01.000 That sounds like fun.

02:19:02.000 So there's challenges with like power consumption.

02:19:04.000 Do not do this at home!

02:19:06.000 Unless you're a professional.

02:19:07.000 But then you'd eventually get to the point where like the watermelon like you've got like you know it's electric and then blows up.

02:19:12.000 And the first show will be a watermelon that will be electrifying.

02:19:16.000 Yeah yeah.

02:19:16.000 Fried watermelon.

02:19:17.000 You know I got the idea because of the hydraulic press channel.

02:19:20.000 And I'm like what are other things you could do that people like there's the flaming hot nickel ball where they torches it and they put it on something.

02:19:26.000 There's a hydraulic press and I'm like well what happens when you electrocute stuff?

02:19:30.000 All right.

02:19:31.000 Sounds good.

02:19:32.000 I'm not an electrical engineer.

02:19:33.000 I don't know much about voltage and amperage and all that stuff, but you'd see the numbers and then, you know, it'd be fun.

02:19:38.000 Cool.

02:19:38.000 Yeah.

02:19:38.000 I like it.

02:19:39.000 Yeah.

02:19:40.000 Let's see here.

02:19:41.000 Awful Mongolian says, NCFTW. 1.00

02:19:44.000 Also, don't cough on me.

02:19:46.000 I won't.

02:19:46.000 Okay.

02:19:47.000 Steven Mitchell says, in your guys' move to the center, have you considered doing segments on you learning about firearms, the ridiculousness of the laws around them, and MSM misinformation campaigns about them?

02:19:57.000 Yes.

02:19:58.000 But I've read a decent amount of these for a while.

02:20:01.000 And that's why I've always been rather tepid on my positions, having to deal with them.

02:20:04.000 Like, I actually went to a police academy training and asked them about it.

02:20:08.000 And interestingly, in Jersey, the trainers were, like, legit experts.

02:20:13.000 And they were for reforms.

02:20:15.000 A lot of them.

02:20:15.000 They said the problem is a lack of uniformity.

02:20:18.000 So people can get in trouble if they don't realize traveling through a certain area.

02:20:21.000 They mentioned there's another problem with the lack of uniformity is that you can go to one state, you live there, get a weapon, and easily bring it to another state, which criminals do.

02:20:29.000 So they were like, the restrictions we need are the ones we don't have, and the restrictions we have are the ones we don't need.

02:20:33.000 And I was like, that's interesting, I don't know.

02:20:35.000 But that's just, you know, to get into the specifics of it.

02:20:40.000 Let's see, what's next?

02:20:41.000 Tony L says, find your own path.

02:20:43.000 Is too broad as philosophy IMO?

02:20:47.000 Erwin S. says, organic life wouldn't be harmed if you're manipulating gravity.

02:20:51.000 Beings inside the craft wouldn't be affected.

02:20:53.000 Bob Lazar explains this crystal clear.

02:20:55.000 Is that what you guys are talking about, spaceships?

02:20:57.000 Yeah, someone asked about organic matter or organic life in a UFO that can stop on a dime, travel, and the G's force would kill organic life. 0.71

02:21:08.000 And so that's what they were just explaining.

02:21:10.000 But if it was manipulating space, you wouldn't feel anything.

02:21:13.000 Exactly.

02:21:13.000 Your space is static and you're moving in between.

02:21:17.000 Pablo D. Sanchez says, Have you heard about New Zealand's COVID-19 Public Health Response Act 2020?

02:21:23.000 It gives police constables the authority to force their way into your home without a warrant or ID if they're in uniform.

02:21:28.000 Gotta love it, huh?

02:21:30.000 Logan Howard says, Guild just got Thunderfury.

02:21:33.000 Love the show.

02:21:33.000 Keep it up.

02:21:34.000 In classic?

02:21:35.000 Got a Thunderfury?

02:21:36.000 That's legit!

02:21:38.000 You know what Thunder Fury is?

02:21:38.000 No.

02:21:39.000 I think there were three legendary and classic.

02:21:42.000 Three legendary items that were like really, really hard to get.

02:21:45.000 Okay.

02:21:46.000 And Thunder Fury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker.

02:21:47.000 I think that's it.

02:21:48.000 And then there was, what was it?

02:21:49.000 Sulfuros.

02:21:50.000 And there was that staff, I think.

02:21:52.000 Cool.

02:21:52.000 So it's really rare.

02:21:54.000 It's insane.

02:21:55.000 Like, it reminds me of the South Park episode where they're like, we have found a man who truly has no life.

02:22:01.000 Have you seen that episode of South Park?

02:22:03.000 No.

02:22:03.000 The guy's playing well.

02:22:04.000 Jean McLeod says, in St.

02:22:06.000 George, Utah, talk to a lady, a nurse in critical care at hospital.

02:22:10.000 She said the COVID-19 cases are from nearby Indian reservations, but no local cases reported.

02:22:15.000 We're always sunny and not on lockdown.

02:22:19.000 Ashanthian, thanks for becoming a member.

02:22:20.000 Thank you.

02:22:21.000 Drunk Shovel says, as previously stated, friend, Lydia is a gem, but she probably isn't going to sleep with you. 1.00

02:22:26.000 Stay thirsty, my friends.

02:22:29.000 To all those simps out there.

02:22:30.000 Yep.

02:22:31.000 Fair point.

02:22:31.000 Troy Dingman says, Cuomo is such an umbrage.

02:22:35.000 Yep.

02:22:36.000 JMaxx says, glad getting the details on all of this.

02:22:39.000 Competition is the only way this whole experiment works, and too many big fish eating the little fish.

02:22:44.000 Politicians both right and left love big business, which is why this shouldn't be a Republican-Democrat issue.

02:22:49.000 It shouldn't be, but the culture war is divided into, like, pro-corporate establishment versus anything, you know, it's like, Trump Says something, and then the people who think no matter what Trump says is wrong.

02:22:59.000 That's the culture war these days.

02:23:00.000 Yep.

02:23:03.000 Emcon, thanks for becoming a member.

02:23:05.000 Big JL says, when I transition to a new platform, I worry about how my loss of views, YouTube Red subscription, will negatively affect creators.

02:23:12.000 I had heard Red subs give money to creators even though they are demonetized.

02:23:16.000 I feel tripped.

02:23:16.000 They do.

02:23:18.000 And it can be really good.

02:23:19.000 It can be.

02:23:20.000 But it's definitely less than ads.

02:23:22.000 Graboid Biden says I turned 34 on Saturday.

02:23:25.000 1986 was the best year for planet Earth.

02:23:26.000 Changed my mind.

02:23:28.000 I agree with you.

02:23:29.000 I was born in 1986.

02:23:30.000 My phone died right before my spider comment, though I did hear Yell's comments.

02:23:35.000 Oh, good, good.

02:23:38.000 I don't know.

02:23:38.000 I have a feeling he is.

02:23:39.000 We'll see though.

02:23:40.000 He said he was concerned about the censorship.

02:23:42.000 I would imagine that's the case.

02:23:43.000 membership and you should reach out to them uh...

02:23:46.000 i don't know i have a feeling is

02:23:49.000 i think that's it i mean he if he said he was concerned about the censorship

02:23:53.000 and i would imagine that's the case that he can do what he wants to do yet

02:23:57.000 but it's also a licensing agreement So it's like, he's just doing the show and then Spotify runs it.

02:24:03.000 If he did a show and Spotify said, we don't want this, then they just wouldn't run it and the clips would go on YouTube.

02:24:07.000 That was the other thing he said.

02:24:08.000 He was like, the clips are on YouTube, man.

02:24:10.000 And I'm like, right.

02:24:11.000 He's like, yeah.

02:24:12.000 So like, what?

02:24:12.000 It's like not going to war with anybody.

02:24:16.000 Let's see.

02:24:18.000 Elhen.

02:24:19.000 Say my name, Ellie. 0.99

02:24:23.000 James Wall says, carry on my wayward sons.

02:24:25.000 They'll be peace when you are done?

02:24:28.000 Gone?

02:24:29.000 Which one is it?

02:24:30.000 Done.

02:24:30.000 Is it done or gone?

02:24:31.000 Gone.

02:24:32.000 Downskated says, if you're looking for a place not too far away from you, Lancaster, PA.

02:24:36.000 One hour to Philly.

02:24:37.000 One hour, Bolt.

02:24:38.000 Rural area.

02:24:38.000 Conservative area.

02:24:39.000 Great town names.

02:24:40.000 Paradise.

02:24:43.000 Mount Joy and more.

02:24:45.000 That's kind of where I lived before.

02:24:47.000 Where?

02:24:48.000 Not as far out as Lancaster.

02:24:50.000 Oh, really?

02:24:51.000 We should look at it.

02:24:51.000 Elkins Park.

02:24:52.000 What did I find?

02:24:54.000 A building that was like 200,000 square feet for like 200 grand or something?

02:24:59.000 That's insane.

02:25:00.000 And it's like... Oh, is it outside Baltimore?

02:25:03.000 No, no, no, it was in PA.

02:25:04.000 Pittsburgh, right?

02:25:05.000 It was like in the middle of nowhere.

02:25:07.000 Oh, Lancaster!

02:25:08.000 I don't want to be in the middle of nowhere.

02:25:10.000 I saw a building, a massive factory in Lancaster.

02:25:13.000 Okay.

02:25:14.000 Yeah, and I'm like, no one in their right mind would buy that because how do you maintain a building that big?

02:25:18.000 Exactly.

02:25:19.000 You have the squatters?

02:25:20.000 Nah.

02:25:21.000 Nah.

02:25:22.000 But those cities could work.

02:25:24.000 The Crude Dude says, Watcher of several years from the live reporting in Sweden stuff.

02:25:27.000 Keep up the great work.

02:25:28.000 I've got all sorts of people watching the show now.

02:25:30.000 Appreciate it, man.

02:25:30.000 Cool, thank you.

02:25:31.000 Nice.

02:25:33.000 Mark Santola says, I am older and the Patriot Act was a huge deal.

02:25:36.000 What is going on actively with cell phone data tracking and tracing?

02:25:39.000 It is unreal that it isn't a bigger deal considering.

02:25:44.000 I completely agree.

02:25:45.000 People are used to it.

02:25:46.000 Yeah.

02:25:46.000 He did.

02:25:47.000 Yeah, they're good.

02:25:47.000 I just wanna grill my veggie burgers for God's sake.

02:25:50.000 Yeah, for real.

02:25:51.000 We actually ended up buying a bunch of vegan snacks for one simple reason.

02:25:55.000 He did.

02:25:56.000 Adam has a bunch of like corn dogs and like fish sticks and stuff.

02:25:59.000 Yeah, they're good.

02:26:00.000 But here's the thing, you can pop them in the microwave and just eat them.

02:26:02.000 Yep.

02:26:03.000 I got regular fish sticks and I popped them in the microwave and it was like,

02:26:05.000 you can't do this because you'll get sick.

02:26:08.000 And I'm like, I just want to have a quick freezer snack, man.

02:26:10.000 I don't want to.

02:26:11.000 Yeah.

02:26:11.000 So, uh, we got some corn dogs and they're vegan.

02:26:14.000 And I was like, they're so good.

02:26:15.000 Those, those corn dogs.

02:26:16.000 They're amazing.

02:26:17.000 They're really good.

02:26:18.000 I did get chicken nuggets too, but the idea was to make something that was like, I don't got to worry about getting sick from like bacteria or something.

02:26:25.000 Yep.

02:26:26.000 Uh-huh.

02:26:26.000 SuperFreeEducation says, if Google uses NFC for contact tracing, it will be literally useless as majority of

02:26:32.000 Android phones don't have NFC.

02:26:33.000 Right, so maybe Bluetooth?

02:26:34.000 Daniel Kerr says, Carrington event 1859 was so strong it fried telegraph cables.

02:26:40.000 Wow.

02:26:41.000 Matthias Brockington.

02:26:44.000 Ryan V. Jones mentioned earlier Wilmington for a move for you guys.

02:26:47.000 Wilmington, North Carolina.

02:26:48.000 The only successful queue in the United States.

02:26:51.000 Also, there is underground railroads and tunnels blocking off to the public.

02:26:55.000 Come help Da Exposure. 0.81

02:26:57.000 We'll look into these cities.

02:26:58.000 Mike McCarty says, with everything going on, I'm reminded of the curse blessing.

02:27:03.000 May you live in interesting times.

02:27:04.000 I mean, I'm down to live in interesting times.

02:27:06.000 I'm happy about it.

02:27:07.000 There you are.

02:27:07.000 Alright, we just got a big ol' jump.

02:27:10.000 Where did we go?

02:27:13.000 There we are.

02:27:14.000 Kubomi says, Yo, we need garden update vids a la Styx Hexenhammer.

02:27:19.000 Maybe we should start a channel for the... Our garden is so much smaller than Styx's, though.

02:27:23.000 We'll have to get a big one.

02:27:24.000 Maybe we should do something about that, too.

02:27:25.000 Yeah, we should.

02:27:26.000 Grow some wheat.

02:27:26.000 We're working on it.

02:27:27.000 Deus Flex says, Gotta love Scientist Solarian's Mass Effect reference.

02:27:31.000 Speaking of which, one of the races, the Quarians, are forced to live in sealed suits due to their immune systems being weakened by living in ships for centuries. 1.00

02:27:40.000 Wow.

02:27:40.000 Interesting.

02:27:42.000 TheCrudeDude says, the only reason I'm able to make it through Witless' lockdown is because of Grand Rapids craft beer industry and Legal Green.

02:27:50.000 What do you use on your hair, Adam?

02:27:52.000 Asking for a friend.

02:27:54.000 Uh, nothing.

02:27:54.000 It's, uh, actually, no, no, it's this thing, uh, what is it called?

02:27:58.000 Uh, water.

02:27:59.000 Yes.

02:28:00.000 Um, water.

02:28:00.000 When I shower, it gets wet and then this happens.

02:28:05.000 There it is.

02:28:06.000 That's all I do.

02:28:06.000 It's a very, very, uh, elite product.

02:28:09.000 Yeah.

02:28:09.000 Alan Jones says, hello TimCast team, what kind of cosmic events would have to occur for Tim, Steven Crowder, Joe Rogan, Alex Jones, and James O'Keefe, or some similar roster, to do a panel on ethical journalism or any other topic?

02:28:20.000 If someone hit me up and they were on board, I'd be like, for sure.

02:28:23.000 It would be really funny with Alex Jones and James O'Keefe on it.

02:28:27.000 I mean, all of them actually, it would be a really interesting conversation.

02:28:30.000 Yep.

02:28:31.000 Because Alex just put out a clip he had to take back because... That's pretty funny.

02:28:34.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:28:36.000 It's weird, man.

02:28:37.000 Yep.

02:28:37.000 What?

02:28:37.000 Doesn't make any sense.

02:28:38.000 Pan-demic dem panic.

02:28:40.000 Ooh.

02:28:41.000 Fear vote by mail and obey, stay inside.

02:28:51.000 It's weird, man.

02:28:52.000 We're gonna release prisoners and then arrest you.

02:28:54.000 Yep.

02:28:55.000 What?

02:28:56.000 Doesn't make any sense.

02:28:57.000 Bo Rai Cho wins.

02:28:58.000 Any idea if the COVID lockdowns could make the coming flu season worse?

02:29:01.000 I really don't know.

02:29:04.000 White Lasagna says, off topic, but Tim Pool for Tony Hawk.

02:29:23.000 Dominic DiMuro is his name.

02:29:25.000 I did, and I'll probably talk about it tomorrow.

02:29:27.000 This is huge.

02:29:27.000 Yeah, we just found out right before the show.

02:29:30.000 Ethan Johansson says, With all this draconian lockdown crap going on, I wish there was an anti-authority music scene like back during Vietnam. 0.67

02:29:37.000 Been listening to Fortunate Son by CCR a lot more often.

02:29:41.000 MN sucks too.

02:29:43.000 Zach Smith says, Hello Adam and Tim, hope you are having a good night.

02:29:46.000 I wanted to change up my diet and wanted to know if you had any good vegan recipes to try out.

02:29:51.000 You know, I only have one.

02:29:54.000 It's kind of one of my go-tos.

02:29:55.000 I actually just made it earlier today.

02:29:56.000 It's kind of like, I like making big huge pots of stuff, you know, so you don't have to cook often.

02:30:01.000 You can just kind of, I like eating it cold.

02:30:03.000 It's a pasta salad.

02:30:05.000 It's pasta.

02:30:05.000 There's like three or four different types of beans.

02:30:08.000 You should get mushrooms, some yellow peppers, green peppers, chop those up.

02:30:13.000 So it's all kind of the same consistency.

02:30:16.000 The yellow peppers, green peppers add like a nice crisp to it and then you just put it all together and There's this, I don't know the brand, but it's a vegan honey mustard sauce.

02:30:25.000 And I just dump it in there.

02:30:26.000 I think it's actually a salad dressing, but I don't care.

02:30:29.000 I just, I dump it in there and I just mix it all up this huge medley.

02:30:32.000 Sometimes I get some vegan sausage also and slice that really, really small, toss it in there.

02:30:38.000 It's really good, really good cold.

02:30:40.000 So you can just make a big, huge batch and it's got lots of good stuff in it.

02:30:44.000 So yeah.

02:30:45.000 Sweet.

02:30:46.000 That's my go-to.

02:30:47.000 Let's see, where are we at?

02:30:49.000 Adventurer says, Georgia number one, Hartsfield International, Southern Hollywood, relative freedom, a lot of mining towns that need help, the Appalachian Trail, and by far the best, I will let you pet my Burmese mountain dog pup.

02:31:03.000 Ah, Burmese are cool.

02:31:04.000 Cool.

02:31:04.000 You know Burmese?

02:31:05.000 Mm-hmm.

02:31:06.000 Yeah, big foofy dudes. 0.75

02:31:08.000 Johansson Sock says, we're sitting on the precipice of change for our generation.

02:31:11.000 I wonder if this is how Roman society felt when they went from a republic to an empire.

02:31:16.000 Daniel Sotelo, aliens!

02:31:19.000 Mitchell S. Ence, thanks for becoming a member.

02:31:20.000 Thank you.

02:31:21.000 Well, we went a half an hour over today, and I was actually on the phone for like a half an hour, so we made up for it, I guess.

02:31:27.000 Hold on, just real quick.

02:31:29.000 Everyone's saying, well, honey isn't vegan, and it's like, yeah, yeah, it's a vegan honey mustard sauce, and it's actually made from maple syrup.

02:31:37.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:31:37.000 So it's not actually honey.

02:31:39.000 It's a vegan honey mustard sauce, so.

02:31:41.000 Ha! 0.89

02:31:42.000 Make sure you do.

02:31:42.000 I love all these people that are trying to do this gacha.

02:31:44.000 Someone even said like, oh, I tried to get you with a gacha thing and I'm like, I don't care. 0.97

02:31:48.000 Yeah.
