It's America Day Eve, which means it's time to celebrate! Happy America Day, everyone! Join us as we live stream a live show to celebrate the day and talk about some current events, including the latest in the Trump vs. Hillary Clinton campaign.
00:00:45.000But they did decide will of the people was the option they wanted to hear me play.
00:00:51.000Well, right now, as we are doing this live stream, Donald Trump is apparently flying into Rapid City.
00:00:58.000He's going to do his thing for America Day.
00:01:01.000He's going to blow up stuff in the sky just above Mount Rushmore.
00:01:05.000And considering that, I guess we'll talk about Mount Rushmore, Fourth of July, CNN.
00:01:11.000CNN, man, it's the rapid culture revolution.
00:01:16.000The culture revolution is happening so fast, it would make Mao jealous.
00:01:21.000You know, if he had a crystal ball and he was looking at the future, and this is China for those that aren't familiar, he'd be sitting there being like, wow!
00:02:13.000The mainstream is just absolutely chasing after... No, let me put it this way.
00:02:22.000The train cart that holds the left, just the brakes broke.
00:02:26.000So normally the analogy was like, the right has a rope on the left's train and they're holding it, so it's slowly pulling everyone slightly to the left, but very slowly.
00:03:58.000And then, you know, your buddy throws a football and you jump to grab it, hits your chest, you lose your balance, fall back, hit your head.
00:04:32.000So I have to imagine, there's a lot of people right now that are being shocked into the news cycle, and they're just kind of like, everything's normal, we got a 4th of July, we just had Memorial Day, and everybody went out and partied.
00:04:45.000And all of a sudden, now it's been a couple weeks, and CNN is telling us that Mount Rushmore is evil.
00:04:53.000And Trump was bad for wanting to have an event there.
00:04:57.000So I have to imagine... I want to believe that regular Americans are sitting in their living rooms like... I imagine here's what's really happening.
00:05:24.000And all of a sudden, this is your normal plan, and you turn on the internet- you open up the internet and it's like, 4th of July is evil, cancel the 4th of July, nothing's allowed in your life- wait.
00:05:34.000If you love America, you're a bigot and a racist.
00:05:37.000You should have celebrated on Juneteenth the Black Lives Matter protesters.
00:05:41.000There were riots going on all over the place at that time too.
00:05:44.000Anyway, I'm willing to bet there's a lot of Americans who got polled and they were like, how low is this Mr. Rickman?
00:06:07.000Like that video we talked about the other day where the guy pulls up to his business and he starts taking down the Black Lives Matter posters and they're screaming in his face and he's just standing there with a blank expression, totally confused, no idea what's happening and he's probably just thinking to himself, like, I'm voting for Trump.
00:07:13.000CNN saying it's racist is the same as all the companies that put up rainbow flags for the month and then the very next day, July 1st, gone.
00:07:43.000That's kind of a joke that a lot of people were saying, that Twitter was basically going to become a left-wing activist blog at some point, because if they keep going down this path of banning people, and even banning some companies too, because, you know, not for the most part, but some, I don't know.
00:07:59.000And they're just like, we won, everybody!
00:08:02.000who's like a, you know, crippled other kin, overweight, mentally abled.
00:08:39.000If you follow the current track to its logical conclusion, eventually what will happen is all of the power will hyper concentrate into the most marginalized person on the planet and we will appoint our new emperor and it's going to be like, they're going to be comatose.
00:08:56.000They're going to be probably like five different races mixed.
00:09:00.000They're going to be, you know, a double amputee.
00:09:22.000Where we're like continually trying to take power and just give it to marginalized people.
00:09:26.000If you follow that track, eventually it just funnels down into one hyper-marginalized individual So they would be homeless from a third world country.
00:10:07.000Yell at everyone else for not understanding it.
00:10:10.000It's really, it's, but, but, you know, I think we're, okay, all right, well, let's just start talking about stuff, because we didn't do the intro yet.
00:11:56.000There's no way we crossed the line when Joe Biden literally told a story about little kids in the pool grabbing and stroking his legs to a full crowd of people.
00:15:29.000And Joe's just gonna be like, you know, Barack Obama, Obama-Biden, Biden-Bamas, and you know, the thing.
00:15:39.000It's literally just gonna... And Trump's gonna be like, Joe, can you answer to what I just said?
00:15:45.000Can you, can you, can you say anything?
00:15:46.000Well, that's when, when it was Biden versus Bernie, it was basically the same thing.
00:15:51.000Bernie was like saying stuff and Biden would start talking and he'd be like, first, I'm going to start saying something that has nothing to do with that.
00:18:19.000And then all of a sudden he's like, I can debate a million miles an hour, I'm Joe Biden, I'm here to change everything, I'm the- I'm gonna be president in 2020, don't- don't vote for Donald Trump, vote for me!
00:19:33.000You know, it would actually be kind of cool if like and hear me out.
00:19:37.000You know, OK, the debate happens and it's exactly as you described with Trump and Joe Biden.
00:19:43.000And then all of a sudden, the roof gets ripped off the building, and the cameras are shaking and they pan up, and the building's just torn, and there's a giant UFO above, and it's like spinning away, and everyone's screaming.
00:19:55.000And then all of a sudden, Trump and Biden put on black sunglasses and pull out men in black guns and start shooting at the UFO.
00:22:23.000We're not gonna tear down Mount Rushmore, sorry.
00:22:25.000I think we can easily recognize there were bad things done in the past, for sure, and we have done away with those things for the most part, and we continue to do better, so let's not destroy Mount Rushmore.
00:22:48.000Look, European settlers came to this country, there was war, there was conflict.
00:22:52.000In fact, in the Declaration of Independence, you know that one of the cited reasons for independence was that I don't want to mess this up, but there was conflict between Native Americans and the colonists, and they felt like the crowd made it worse.
00:23:59.000I'm not gonna complain about the fact that a lot of the bad laws in this country, which made it harder for my family, existed and were put in place by Democrats and others.
00:24:27.000If someone is standing above you, and they agree to come down to an even playing field, you can't then say, no, no, no, you have to go down further, and that's my turn to go up.
00:24:38.000If someone has the power and the wealth and the control and they're like, listen, we recognize equality and all that stuff, so we're going to step down and level the playing field.
00:26:43.000Think about what it is they're arguing for.
00:26:46.000You know, I made the joke before this segment about the logical conclusion of all of this identity social justice stuff is that we give all executive authority on the planet to one ultra-marginalized person, and so they're just like a comatose, disabled, multiracial, whatever, you name it.
00:27:02.000Every single negative thing, all balled into one, granted sole global executive authority over everything, decisions they can't actually make, so nothing happens.
00:27:12.000But you take a look at what's going on with Mount Rushmore, and let's be real about what the conclusion is.
00:27:17.000Do we just send all of the white people back to Europe?
00:28:27.000Um, I'm just gonna go ahead and imagine that the elk are actually vicious and they eat squirrels and chipmunks and small woodland creatures.
00:28:33.000Because, otherwise, if they're just herbivores, I can only imagine them as being, like, cutesy and happy and, like, bouncing and frolicking.
00:31:44.000There'll be a major uprising, and then they'll elect their new leaders, and they'll all cheer, and within two weeks, they'll run out of avocados, and there'll be another revolution, and there'll be a demand to rejoin the Union.
00:31:56.000Well, the toast, they'll still have, you know, they'll make their bread with their bread machines, they've got flour left over, but avocados, man, those aren't coming.
00:32:30.000No, but once they can't supply, once the food source of avocados runs out, and they all starve to death, then the Union walks back in and just scoops up the corpses, and then takes the cities back, and there's just a wasteland, and there are shelves filled with all kinds of regular food.
00:32:50.000Once they ran out of avocados, man, that was it.
00:32:52.000The millennial revolutionaries couldn't survive without it.
00:33:33.000Imagine with all the riots going on in Portland and Seattle, truckers say, I am not going to drive into that city when they're defunding police.
00:34:12.000We're not, because the shipments won't come in because of the riots.
00:34:15.000And then all of a sudden he goes... He tears all his hair out and then he just rips his shirt off and he goes outside and starts punching Antifa guys.
00:34:22.000And then all of a sudden... You do this to me!
00:34:46.000Blueberries, mangoes, these things are all imported from other parts of the world.
00:34:49.000It's ridiculous, in my opinion, that we actually do it.
00:34:52.000Now, a lot of these people, a lot of these environmental activists understand the importance of eating seasonal fruits and vegetables.
00:34:57.000Because when you get strawberries in the winter, you gotta understand where those strawberries came from and how much energy it took to get them there.
00:35:02.000Burns a lot of fossil fuels and all this other stuff.
00:35:06.000Once these people, who know nothing but wealth and comfort, Let's be real, man.
00:35:17.000You know, I hear this all the time that our parents, you know, it's like the first generation where the kids will be worse off than their parents were.
00:36:20.000Yeah, so they just make up some random purpose, and now they're complaining about how bad everything is when it's better than it's ever been.
00:36:31.000So listen, when you can have pizza anytime because they've put it on a bagel, what happens when you disrupt the system to the point where that goes away and now you have to experience the real world?
00:36:43.000Once these people actually get a taste of what it really, what is really required of you for survival, man, these people's, their eyes are going to go full Biden.
00:37:41.000They've never thought beyond where does the food actually come from.
00:37:44.000Let alone all the different options that are there and all the different lines of the wheels moving in society to give us these comforts that we have.
00:37:53.000Oh man, I tell you, when I try talking to some people, so this guy I know posted something on Facebook, where he's like, I kid you not, he argued, instead of reopening businesses, just pay everyone.
00:38:57.000Nothing. So let's say you own your house. You got to pay taxes, right?
00:39:00.000Okay, so you got you got you got to pay something if you're if you're someone who has the majority of your needs met
00:39:06.000and someone's Like hey, I'll give you $10 for that Apple. You're like
00:39:09.000Well, I need the Apple. I can't keep the app I can't buy anything with $10 in a long enough shutdown the
00:39:16.000money becomes worthless because there's nothing you can do with it, right?
00:39:20.000So I'm like, if the government's just gonna start printing out money and giving it to people, but everything's closed, at a certain point people are like, I don't need this.
00:40:42.000But, uh, technically it will never run out of power.
00:40:46.000With a thousand amp hours, with the monitor, with general electrical outlet usage, if I had a bunch of things plugged in, a laptop, uh, we did the math and the amount of power that it holds will easily sustain everything in the event that it's too cloudy or too dark.
00:43:19.000It'd actually be really funny to do like a short story, or film, or like video game, where it's like, in a hundred years, there's like walled off cities of regular humans, who have like, you know, there's the official flag is the Gadsden flag, it's like the national flag of the tribes.
00:43:37.000They've devolved into like, like Gollum from Lord of the Rings, and they're like cannibalistic, and they're like, And you go out there, and it's very dangerous, because they eat you.
00:45:02.000These people are overwhelmingly post-grads and graduates who make $100k plus a year, and they're demanding subsidies from the government to forgive their loans.
00:45:09.000It's like, why are we going to subsidize the wealthiest people or the people with the highest salaries?
00:45:15.000Meanwhile, regular working class people Or like, you know, a portly 40-year-old white dude who, like, fixes toilets for a living.
00:46:02.000You're for open borders, which 10 years ago was the, was the, the ultra right-wing, you know, according to Bernie Sanders, the libertarian right-wing industrialist.
00:48:24.000Like, yeah, we had thousands of years of war and conflict, but now you look at modern Christianity and it's like, You know, people just sitting at home having Christmas and kind of minding their own business.
00:48:33.000One of my best friends is, you know, he goes to church and he runs a, I forget what he calls it, but it's basically just a group of, you know, any kid that doesn't have a dad.
00:48:46.000It's a bunch of dads go and they all have like a dad day, you know.
00:48:50.000Like, come, and we'll, you know, we hang out, we do, you know, manly stuff.
00:48:53.000It's kind of like Boy Scouts, but for, you know, like... Big Brothers or something?
00:48:56.000Yeah, like Big Brother, you know, and it's like, it's in the Christian church, or, you know, whatever church he goes to, and it's like through them, and it's not really religious.
00:49:04.000They don't talk about religion, they just do, you know, they play games, they talk about what's bothering them, and it's like, that's awesome.
00:49:11.000It's like, I'm not religious, but I can get behind that.
00:49:13.000Like, we need that kind of stuff in communities.
00:49:16.000You know, that's gonna help solve a lot of issues, you know?
00:49:18.000Well, the way I see it is, you know, I grew up Catholic briefly, left the church, not very interested in it.
00:49:25.000I'm looking at it now like, wow, when you remove that from people, they fill it with really nasty stuff.
00:51:07.000Each electron is evenly spaced out to the point where nothing interacts ever again.
00:51:12.000So, that's where we're headed based on what we currently think.
00:51:16.000However, for now, as things do spread out, there are still interactions between baser particles, which form atoms, elements, compounds, etc.
00:51:26.000And so, throughout everything we can see as what life and existence is, There are bits of random free energy that combine to form more complex things, be it more electrons or neutrons or protons, all the way up to compounds.
00:51:42.000Then eventually you get to the point where life starts to exist, which is the ever-increasing complexity of existence.
00:51:49.000So you first, and this is based on me, I am not a scientist, I don't study this stuff, but you have self-replicating proteins that emerge, and all these are chemicals that just copy each other.
00:52:00.000And so they're taking free energy bits and going, sticking them together.
00:52:04.000Somehow, somewhere, it becomes cellular life.
00:52:07.000And so at the very base, you know, base of regular life, they're taking chemical bits and turning it into more complex systems that function and reproduce.
00:52:24.000So then you get basic, really small microorganisms.
00:52:27.000As they increasingly become more and more complicated, absorbing free energy and creating more complex systems, you get to the point where this life creates a system outside of itself, an ecosystem.
00:52:37.000So now you have squirrels planting nuts, which become trees, which make more nuts, which feed the squirrels.
00:52:41.000So now the life is interacting between each other.
00:52:43.000Then you get to the point where the life starts manipulating the environment.
00:52:48.000Bees building nests, birds building nests.
00:52:50.000And then you come to the point where we're at now, human beings, who create abstract complex systems.
00:52:54.000We don't just reproduce by eating things and turning it into more people.
00:52:58.000We don't just create physical objects, we also name those objects, give them ridiculous amounts of names, like, you know, the word run has I think like 50 plus definitions.
00:53:15.000Creation, in the sense that we don't actually create matter out of nothing, but the creation of new complex systems is something we can build and can create.
00:53:50.000But we're trying harder and harder and harder to do better and better and better.
00:53:54.000We become more efficient, we simplify language, we simplify math, we simplify our programming languages so they become increasingly more complex but more capable.
00:54:02.000Then Antifa on the far left shows up and tries to destroy everything around us.
00:54:06.000To me that is the opposite of what life does and that's why it's inherently evil.
00:54:10.000It's destructive, it hurts people, it hurts us, it hurts our creations, our developments, and in the end, it leaves us in pain.
00:54:17.000They burned down an elk statue for literally no reason.
00:55:08.000There's a famous anarchist professor, I'm going to leave his name out, but he tweeted about this, that many elements of the left have adopted fascistic philosophies in order to gain power.
00:55:19.000Before we get too far away, that was beautiful how you talked about basically the evolution of life on the planet, and the whole time all I wanted to do was praise the sun.
00:55:38.000Yeah, and so when that stuff hits Earth, a whole bunch of different systems are created.
00:55:43.000It's like, that energy is what we use to build.
00:55:48.000All the little tiny bits on this planet are taken up using that energy like a solar panel to make stuff.
00:55:53.000I mean, that's how we survive, because the plants eat the sun, the sun eats the plants, the animals eat the plants, we eat the animals, eat the plants.
00:55:59.000But, but this is why it's, it's so important to create sustainable systems, green energy and things like that.
00:56:12.000But the people who just burn random things down and tear down, you know, statues of abolitionists and beat people, they're a chaotic destructive force that is in the disinterest of all life.
00:56:31.000You've got, in the beginning, there's like that chimp that's infected, and the animal liberation people break in, and they're like, we're gonna set these animals free, and then they open it, and then the chimp is all infected, zombified, and it bites them, and that's how the zombie virus gets out into the general public.
00:56:49.000Many of them think they're good intentioned, and you've got someone begging them, stop, stop, we're actually fighting really hard to make the planet a better place, and they run in like morons and just blow everything up.
00:57:29.000You had an agreement among most people in this country that we should not segregate, but there were still people of all races that were angry that happened.
00:57:59.000The difficult thing about being for freedom and liberty Is that it's easy to exploit the goodwill of people who are wanting to let you do your thing.
00:59:17.000And then when the cops come and start yelling at them, the good guys, the freedom-loving people say, no, no, no, he should be allowed to keep saying it.
01:00:10.000With Scarlett Johansson and, was it Ewan McGregor?
01:00:13.000For those that aren't familiar, it's basically... I mean, the movie's 20 years old, so spoilers.
01:00:19.000There's these people who live in this facility, and they're very childish and naive.
01:00:25.000And they think when you win the lottery, you get to go to, what, like the island or something?
01:00:28.000You get to go to the island, yeah, yeah.
01:00:30.000But in reality, when you win the lottery, it's because outside of this facility, the actual human who had a clone of them made to harvest organs wants your organs.
01:00:40.000Yeah, so what ends up happening is, like, these people live there not realizing they're actually clones, and then when someone's liver fails, they're like, chop them open, take the liver.
01:00:48.000Or the pregnant woman that basically carried the baby to term for her clone.
01:01:18.000I tweeted about the silent majority, and everyone keeps trying to make it seem like when I say speak up, I'm saying go out and physically fight or something.
01:01:28.000And I think these people are doing this because they don't want moderates and conservatives and even actual liberals to speak up for themselves.
01:01:35.000So it's like the only thing available right now is either you can shut up and let them take over, and when I say, stand up for yourself, they're like, he's calling for violence!
01:02:27.000They were both civil rights leaders in their own right, but most people are unfamiliar with Malcolm X. I don't even know much about him other than people have told me that he was more in favor of being violent and fighting back, whereas Martin Luther King Jr.
01:02:39.000is more about passive resistance and civil disobedience.
01:02:43.000I wonder if that's why we actually, you know, remember him more fondly, I guess.
01:03:26.000And if they both lose, then what happens is it goes to the House of Representatives based on state delegations where Republicans have the majority.
01:03:34.000So based on the amount of reps you get, I don't know exactly how it works, but basically what they said was it would be 26 to 23 in terms of delegations and the Republicans would win.
01:03:48.000So if Biden and Trump don't clear 270, the House of Representatives votes and Trump is guaranteed the Republican win.
01:07:03.000You steal someone's car, and they're like, well, you're stealing my car, and you're like, it's 2020, and they're like, good point, nothing better!
01:07:08.000Good one, you're right, here's the keys!
01:10:13.000Facebook has stripped me of my hope in humanity Oh, no, why because it's just all of these people regurgitating garbled nonsensical talking points I know I'm seeing it all the time like what I said where the guy was like duh why does the government just you know like pay people like duh and Yeah, just pay, like, what?
01:10:29.000There's no idea how any of this stuff is made, where it comes from, it's just like, food's just there!
01:10:36.000Facebook is just filled with bad articles, poorly written, basically opinions, citing science that isn't proven, memes that claim to prove a point, but literally just have a sentence on them, and they're like, look at this meme, it shows that this happened!
01:10:54.000I'm like, wow, you're spreading that around a lot.
01:11:31.000It's where you pretend to be in favor of something, and you make it seem insane.
01:11:36.000So, like, if you dressed up like an intersectional feminist and went around screaming, you know, like, killing people and stuff, people would be like, whoa, these people are crazy, I don't have anything to do with them.
01:11:46.000Even though you're not really for it, it's a trick.
01:11:48.000But what I like doing is I just say something like, when they start talking about this stuff, I'll be like, oh dude, yeah, I'm totally down.
01:11:54.000I'll be honest with you guys, you know, I come from a mixed race family, so I'm looking forward to when you guys are second class citizens, right?
01:12:00.000You'll have no job, you'll work for me, I can do whatever I want, and you guys will be answering to whatever it is I want to do.
01:12:51.000You know, I'll just grow my facial hair out to get tanned for two seconds and then all of a sudden I get all the benefits that you're espousing.
01:12:56.000And I'll just pretend to support you because then I get your money, right?
01:13:01.000Hey man, your ancestors created those miscegenation laws and racial covenants.
01:13:06.000So, at what point... You know, here's the other question I have too, like, It's crazy though, because only like 16% of the world is white people.
01:14:25.000My family, my mixed-race family, was oppressed, was unable to build wealth because it was illegal, and were forced to flee different states because of racial covenants and racist laws.
01:14:36.000Therefore, My family is entitled to money from your pocket.
01:16:21.000And instead of talking about Shutting these things down, they're like, we could be talking about the horrifying things that happen on reservations that the FBI won't go after because it's not, because they don't care.
01:16:33.000Instead, they're like, break apart Mount Rushmore.
01:16:36.000It's like, okay, there's like innocent people being tortured and kidnapped.
01:16:41.000We could, you know, I don't know, focus on that for a minute.
01:18:02.000There is an open door, no matter what the cops do, to try and get justice.
01:18:07.000But if we devolve into warlord territory with no government, there's no justice.
01:18:12.000If, you know, some guy starts just... Some crazy guy who's got a ton of guns, everything falls apart, and he calls himself, like, The Hook.
01:19:28.000And we don't gotta go over the edge, baby, but it looks like we're gonna go over the edge.
01:19:35.000Yeah, because even if Trump wins and brings back that really great economy that he had for the past few years, these people are going to go nuts and burn everything down.
01:19:43.000And so it's just going to be chaos no matter what happens.
01:19:46.000I mean, actually, I think if Biden wins, they just slowly take over and then life sucks.
01:25:00.000But it also creates... When you've got regular people in the middle and you're trying to persuade them to either agree with you or not, Yeah, you think those regular people in the middle are on Twitter following him or seeing these things?
01:25:11.000No, but they're on Facebook, and their 17-year-old Gen Z is sharing it with them, and they're like, whoa, these people are crazy.
01:25:54.000If you were trying to figure out what the goal of that was and who would benefit, it's so that Joe Biden would benefit greatly from that tweet.
01:26:02.000Because a regular person who has a coma in 2019 wakes up today, and then sees someone tweeting about how you're gonna be dead in a year, they're gonna be like, these people have gone insane!
01:26:15.000I'm a big fan of not stereotyping anybody, because I've been stereotyped for so long.
01:26:21.000It's like, yeah, I was a model, and everyone knew who I was, and then I traveled and lived in Europe for a while, and everyone knew who I was because I was an American, and it's like, I'm sick of it. Nobody knows who anyone is until you
01:27:38.000Like, I can talk about civil conflict, and I always preface this with, two years ago, almost three years ago, it was like New York Mag wrote about the possibility of a civil war, giving it a high probability.
01:27:49.000And that's when I first brought it up.
01:27:50.000Then you have this one professor, Peter Turchin, who said, violence in 2020, upcoming civil war.
01:28:16.000It seems like that's exactly what you're saying.
01:28:18.000I'm wondering if he was literally sitting there thinking in a year, if Biden wins, that tons of people will be dead because they'll be hunting Republicans down.
01:29:41.000So F you if that's the person who wrote that, even though that they were totally joking and it was like lighthearted, but doesn't matter because text doesn't carry.
01:31:27.000You're launching an exploratory committee to entertain... The reason why they do this is because if you say you are going to run for office, you subject yourself to a whole bunch of laws.
01:31:38.000Yeah, no, I'm not... At the moment, no.
01:31:44.000But I've felt an urge to get in, to see what's going on, just because it's like, you know, you want to be the change.
01:40:29.000Jeremy says, Tim, I think you and Adam should have an iTunes-style download with you past, present, and future music portions for this podcast for $1.
01:42:07.000Commander Mickalint says, if we have to remove Mount Rushmore, the natives must demolish the statues of Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull for the slaughter of natives and colonization of native lands in the name of their tribe.
01:42:18.000Do we have to actually go back and figure out who had that land before they did?
01:43:31.000Donald Trump holds a press conference, and he's got a big stack of papers, and he gets up, and no one has any idea what it is, and he goes, my fellow Americans, I have decided, under one condition, I will not run and seek re-election, and that's if Nicolas Cage does National Treasure 3.
01:43:48.000And then all of a sudden, it's like, the press goes nuts, and everyone, they make the biggest budget movie in the history of the world, it's like a $10 billion budget, it's like, National Treasure, there's aliens, and there's like space battles.
01:48:49.000They just said the reason the banana peel slip thing became a thing is because people would just eat bananas and just toss their peels on the ground.
01:48:58.000And they just, they take a while to go away.
01:49:00.000So there's just banana peels everywhere.
01:49:02.000So they made it like, you know, it's slippery.
01:49:05.000Some people would actually throw them away.
01:51:10.000I came out of the womb talking about it.
01:51:13.000I've been talking to some locals recently, and I say to them, I'm like, man, I can't believe you guys live here, this is crazy, I'm getting out.
01:51:20.000And what they say right away is, me too.
01:52:42.000Somebody just flushed the toilet on a New York man.
01:52:44.000Because now you've got, with the increase in crime, the decrease of the budget for the NYPD, and the decrease of residents, tax revenue is going to go way down.
01:53:05.000New York closed for three days or something for like, I don't know if it was Sandy that made it happen or yeah, I think it was Sandy when, when Sandy hit New York and it was really bad, they lost like $3 billion in tourism.
01:53:20.000And you can only imagine how much money that they lost over the past four months of just not being open at all.
01:53:31.000He says, much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good.
01:54:10.000I got to give a shout out here because I used, when I lived in Williamsburg working at Vice, I was actually just across the street from the original, I think it was the original Champs.
01:54:19.000And I used to go there and I don't think it was, I don't think I think it was vegan vegetarian, right?
02:00:53.000For the other side, where if she was pregnant and she was calm and trying to talk them down, and then, and if she had kids in her car, they're not talking about that either.
02:01:02.000And it's like, hmm, they're, they're, they, everything would, they would lose all of their empathy.
02:01:36.000Today we don't, because today is Friday, which means we always end the Friday show with a jam session.
02:01:42.000Now I lost my voice last week because I've been singing too much and working too much, so just Adam's gonna play a couple songs and we're gonna chill and hang out for a little bit.
02:01:49.000So if you haven't already, you can follow me on Twitter at Timcast and Instagram as well.
02:01:54.000You can follow at AdamKrigler on Instagram and Twitter and at SourPatchLids on Twitter.
02:04:14.000He called, he called his soldiers down To take aim at the traitors To gun those rebels down Now they face the consequences They held themselves above This is the will of the people He said Wish I could spare them, make them see a path.
02:04:46.000Tempting as it sounds, I'll have to pass.
02:04:51.000I know what's needed for the good of my people, to save them.
02:04:59.000Out in the dark without warning He raised his fist above Let a cry to his people
02:08:33.000The three verses are actually, it's actually really simple.
02:08:35.000The first verse is the general who comes out, instructs his soldiers to kill protesters.
02:08:42.000Then the next verse is, it's the child of the protesters grows up, becomes a revolutionary, and now he knows, he knows the general was bad, and his view of the will of the people is the right view.
02:08:57.000And the last verse is now that revolutionary has become the same general who thinks he's the hero gunning down the fascists, when in fact he's just torturing and murdering protesters.
02:09:07.000And the end of the song is him on his deathbed about to be executed by the next revolutionary.
02:14:35.000Alright, I'll take it back to taking it back to... Let me just make sure my guitar... Now we're gonna hear... We're gonna hear a Krigler original.
02:14:42.000I'm really impressed though, someone in the chat said they could tell that it was a half step down.
02:14:48.000It's right, it's a half step down, right?
02:22:18.000With no regards to who could see His sadness just took control It was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen We could all only truly know How to be humane and secure We all might last a little A little longer That's called Change.
02:27:02.000This is going to be interesting because I don't know where we're going to put this video, but for those that are interested... It's got to be on Tincast IRL.
02:27:07.000I already told the story of the video, right?
02:27:48.000But then as they're being dragged away, there's a little kid hiding under the bed, watching
02:27:51.000it happen, crying, as his parents are then just like, you know, renditioned, essentially.
02:27:56.000So then the next verse is this kid grows up, and he leads a revolution, and they're tearing down statues, and he's, you know, as they get to the point where they're about to execute the general who killed his parents, He says, you know, I wish I could spare them, but I'll have to pass.
02:28:16.000Dude, man, your story writing abilities are so good.
02:28:18.000The first, like, bridge, I guess, where it's like, drop your arms and march for them, is when the revolutionaries are forcing the previous regime to, like, be put up against the wall to be executed.
02:28:29.000And then the last verse is the same as the first, except for traitors and rebels.
02:30:50.000And that's what got, that's why I was like, I think Magic the Gathering was interesting to me because it was a more advanced strategy game.
02:30:56.000But so I was doing long division and advanced multiple multiplications and stuff and math when I was in kindergarten.
02:31:02.000So I was like well ahead of all the other kids around me.
02:31:05.000And then my family opened a business, so I started actually working when I was like nine.
02:31:10.000So I think all these things conspired to give me work ethic, personal responsibility, and I've been playing music since a little kid, so I've had an advantage.
02:31:22.000And that's what bumps me out about American schools.
02:31:25.000You know what most Americans do between the ages of zero and five?
