Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - TimcastIRL - Huge Chinese Rocket Piece Screamed over US Cities Narrowly Missing NYC

00:00:00.000 What's up everybody?

00:00:09.000 Welcome to the TimCast IRL podcast.

00:00:11.000 We're chillin'.

00:00:12.000 I'm hangin' out with some people.

00:00:14.000 You know, just hangin'.

00:00:15.000 Just hangin', man.

00:00:16.000 What's goin' on, everybody?

00:00:16.000 How you doin'?

00:00:17.000 We got- Heyo! 0.95

00:00:18.000 That's Adam.

00:00:19.000 You're supposed to say your name.

00:00:20.000 Oh, yeah.

00:00:20.000 Well, usually- Normally, you say it.

00:00:22.000 No, I leave it to you guys.

00:00:22.000 No.

00:00:23.000 You're like- Oh, that's true.

00:00:24.000 You're like, I know- Hangin' out with some peeps.

00:00:26.000 Adam Krigler, that's me.

00:00:27.000 How you doin'?

00:00:27.000 Yeah, yeah, look at that.

00:00:28.000 Thanks for showin' up.

00:00:29.000 And then there's like- There's someone else, I think.

00:00:31.000 I can't remember her name.

00:00:31.000 There's someone else.

00:00:32.000 What's her name?

00:00:32.000 Sour Patch Lids.

00:00:33.000 That's my name.

00:00:34.000 I'm adopting it.

00:00:35.000 I'm rolling with it.

00:00:36.000 Yo.

00:00:37.000 Um, yeah.

00:00:39.000 So, uh, what's going on?

00:00:41.000 Yeah, what is going on?

00:00:42.000 It is a crazy day, man.

00:00:43.000 The news has been really, really nuts.

00:00:44.000 It feels the same.

00:00:45.000 You know, it's really weird because we've all been locked down for so much.

00:00:49.000 You know, for those that are listening, like, all three of us have been talking about this.

00:00:53.000 There's a whole lot of stories that are, like, not really stories.

00:00:58.000 They're just like fragments of stories.

00:00:59.000 And I think it's because we can't go anywhere.

00:01:01.000 Yeah.

00:01:01.000 We can't do anything.

00:01:02.000 We're like, so you look at the front line, you know, the front page headline news, and it's like Donald Trump today yelled at a dog.

00:01:11.000 Oh, and it's like it's always something about what Trump is doing.

00:01:14.000 I think it's because politics is easy.

00:01:16.000 If we can't go out and go to the movies, how do we talk about movies?

00:01:19.000 Didn't they say something about it finally being over?

00:01:22.000 Like we're like they're lifting the restrictions.

00:01:25.000 We can go out.

00:01:26.000 I thought that was a thing, no?

00:01:27.000 Am I wrong?

00:01:28.000 No?

00:01:28.000 I heard you guys cheer from the other room, like, yay, we're free!

00:01:32.000 And I was like, oh, we're free, this is nice.

00:01:34.000 Well, not here in Jersey, but Wisconsin Supreme Court just basically shut down.

00:01:39.000 Wisconsin's like, yep, you're free, no one can tell you not to.

00:01:42.000 It was a close ruling, it was four to three, that they won't extend the lockdown.

00:01:45.000 Nice.

00:01:46.000 So I'm looking forward to it, because every day when we start pulling news and looking at stuff, it's like, oh man.

00:01:53.000 I can't wait!

00:01:53.000 8. I can't wait yesterday was brutal go do anything or do things again. Yeah. Go bowling exactly. Yesterday was

00:02:01.000 brutal because. There it's it's every every southern there's days where it's just. There'll be

00:02:06.000 like 300 stories. That don't relate to each other that are microscopic that have played out. And that's

00:02:12.000 when you know it's like a really bad day for the news where desperately trying to squeeze something

00:02:15.000 out.

00:02:16.000 I try to do more like, you know, philosophical or predictive segments in that case.

00:02:22.000 But soon we'll be going to the movies again and we'll be telling you guys what we think of movies!

00:02:26.000 Oh man, I can't wait!

00:02:28.000 But this is what's crazy.

00:02:28.000 Remember those days?

00:02:29.000 Like when we did the Birds of Prey segment?

00:02:31.000 Man, that was fun.

00:02:32.000 But that was a big story that people were talking about on Twitter and now it's like we can't go out and do anything so there's no...

00:02:38.000 Like, it's just, it's just been, it's over, you know?

00:02:40.000 Yeah, it's true.

00:02:41.000 You know what's scary is, uh, apparently the mayor of L.A.

00:02:43.000 said that we're gonna be locked down forever.

00:02:46.000 L.A.

00:02:47.000 is.

00:02:47.000 I kid you not, this guy's an idiot.

00:02:48.000 The population of L.A.

00:02:49.000 drops.

00:02:50.000 Yes.

00:02:51.000 Right.

00:02:51.000 But this guy, he said, he was like, we're gonna, we're not gonna completely reopen until there's a cure.

00:02:56.000 Okay.

00:02:57.000 For a virus.

00:02:58.000 A cure.

00:02:58.000 For a virus.

00:02:59.000 Yeah.

00:02:59.000 Has this guy been through third grade biology?

00:03:02.000 Right.

00:03:02.000 Let me show you a little picture, a little, you know, viral phage or whatever things, bacteriophage.

00:03:07.000 It's like, you can't, we have no cures for viruses.

00:03:11.000 Yeah.

00:03:11.000 So he basically said, we're locking down indefinitely.

00:03:14.000 Yep.

00:03:15.000 He clarified, he was like, the health department lady official said, We're, um, it's going to be at least three more months till August.

00:03:24.000 Okay.

00:03:24.000 And everybody went nuts on Twitter.

00:03:26.000 They were like, you know, dear Lord, help us.

00:03:27.000 And then he goes on TV.

00:03:28.000 He's like, no, no, no, no.

00:03:29.000 I got to clarify that.

00:03:30.000 We're going to be locked down.

00:03:32.000 Like we're not going to be completely open much longer than that.

00:03:35.000 It was like, you're not making things better.

00:03:37.000 So apparently this guy doesn't know what a virus is and doesn't know that we don't have cures for these things.

00:03:42.000 So that's freaky.

00:03:43.000 You know, it's weird because it's all these like, Blue states that are doing it.

00:03:48.000 And red states are opening up.

00:03:50.000 Yeah, and it sounds like they're just making decisions off things they hear instead of actual science.

00:03:56.000 Right.

00:03:57.000 Michigan's the worst.

00:03:58.000 Seems like it, yeah.

00:03:59.000 Because, like, Whitmer, the governor, said this is an executive order, not a suggestion or whatever, like, and people are, like, there's signs saying, like, obey.

00:04:07.000 Yeah.

00:04:07.000 What is wrong with your state?

00:04:08.000 It's weird.

00:04:09.000 Every time I see her talk or see a picture of her, I'm like, oh, is this an SNL sketch?

00:04:13.000 No, oh, it's not.

00:04:14.000 Oh, it's actually her.

00:04:15.000 It is.

00:04:16.000 Right, right.

00:04:16.000 What does she look like?

00:04:17.000 She looks like someone from SNL.

00:04:18.000 Doesn't she?

00:04:19.000 I think she must.

00:04:20.000 Like she's not a real person.

00:04:21.000 Yep, yep.

00:04:21.000 But there is, there is some, we got a bunch of stories.

00:04:25.000 We'll see what we get to, but the first one we really want to talk about is a 20 ton, 100 foot long Chinese rocket part.

00:04:34.000 Apparently it was flying over the US.

00:04:36.000 Over the US.

00:04:37.000 Almost hit New York.

00:04:40.000 We'll get to it, but before we get started, make sure y'all hit that like button.

00:04:44.000 Make sure you jump in the super chat, and we will do our best to read your comments, we get to them.

00:04:50.000 You can follow me at Timcast, and you can follow Adam over at AdamKrigler on Twitter, both of us Twitter and Instagram, but you can send Adam story suggestions on Twitter.

00:04:58.000 Yeah, please do.

00:04:59.000 And we use the story suggestions, we do.

00:05:01.000 Yeah.

00:05:01.000 So do that.

00:05:02.000 And then also, you know, share this video, because one of the segments we're gonna do today is YouTube admits That nobody likes watching CNN, but they're going to share them anyway.

00:05:13.000 And it's funny because the BuzzFeed people and like these lefty blogs are angry that people are uploading videos to YouTube and then sharing them on Facebook.

00:05:22.000 I kid you not.

00:05:23.000 They are now mad that YouTube hosts user videos and people can share the link.

00:05:27.000 I'm not exaggerating.

00:05:28.000 BuzzFeed's trying to get this shut down.

00:05:30.000 That's crazy.

00:05:30.000 They're pressuring YouTube to stop the ability of sharing URLs.

00:05:34.000 Like what does that even mean?

00:05:35.000 Yeah.

00:05:36.000 I'm like, they'll just go to Bitshoot, dude.

00:05:37.000 They'll go to Mines, just post a video.

00:05:39.000 These people are nuts, man.

00:05:41.000 They won't stop until... These people are drone authoritarian psychopaths.

00:05:48.000 Yeah, dude.

00:05:50.000 So let's do this.

00:05:51.000 Why don't we talk about a Chinese rocket piece screaming over the U.S.? 1.00

00:05:54.000 That's actually... I'm using... That's a quote from another article from Futurism.

00:05:59.000 But let's read the news.

00:06:01.000 So here's the story from Popular Mechanics.

00:06:04.000 Chunks of China's powerful rocket fall back to Earth, narrowly missing NYC.

00:06:09.000 It is the largest piece of space junk to fall uncontrolled in nearly 30 years.

00:06:14.000 Yeah, since 1991, I guess.

00:06:16.000 But check this out, this thing's massive.

00:06:18.000 This is why I was like, they say a rocket piece, and it's like, what does that mean?

00:06:21.000 Like a tiny little rock or something?

00:06:23.000 Yeah, right, right.

00:06:23.000 No, this thing's 20 tons.

00:06:24.000 Well, tiny rocks would just burn up in the atmosphere, so it has to be pretty big to make it.

00:06:27.000 But if it was like stage one and it fell before it escaped the atmosphere, it was like, you know.

00:06:31.000 Well, and made it all the way across the entire country and landed in the Atlantic.

00:06:35.000 That doesn't... That's crazy.

00:06:36.000 So how did this thing fly over the US?

00:06:38.000 I don't think that's stage one.

00:06:39.000 The large core stage of China's Long March 5B rocket re-entered Earth's atmosphere and plummeted out of control to the surface earlier this week.

00:06:48.000 At 100 feet long and 16 feet wide, it is the largest piece of space junk to fall uncontrolled from low Earth orbit in almost 30 years.

00:06:55.000 That's huge!

00:06:56.000 Initial reports suggested that the almost 20-ton rocket stage had fallen into the Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of Africa.

00:07:04.000 20 tons?

00:07:04.000 20 tons, bro.

00:07:05.000 Dang! 0.99

00:07:06.000 Imagine if that hit New York.

00:07:08.000 New reports from social media and some African news organizations suggest pieces of the rocket may have been thrown across parts of the Côte d'Ivoire.

00:07:16.000 Ivory Coast.

00:07:18.000 Ivory Coast, there you go.

00:07:20.000 The heavy-lift rocket, which was carrying China's prototype crew capsule, successfully launched from Wenchang Launch Center on Hainan Island off the country's southern coast.

00:07:30.000 Typically, rockets have a first stage that propels them for the first few minutes after launch, while the second stage helps the payload reach orbit.

00:07:37.000 But Long March 5B was different.

00:07:39.000 Instead, the rocket had a single core stage and four boosters that propelled it off the launch pad.

00:07:44.000 The speed and angle of the rocket's decaying orbit made it difficult to track.

00:07:48.000 Predictions spanned a range of sites from New York City to New Zealand, according to Space Flight Now.

00:07:53.000 That's a pretty large range.

00:07:55.000 What?

00:07:55.000 Yeah, nobody knew where it was going.

00:07:57.000 That's insane.

00:07:58.000 If you're going to get that prediction, you might as well not predict it at all.

00:08:01.000 Two different sides of the planet.

00:08:02.000 Right, right, right.

00:08:03.000 What could be anywhere?

00:08:04.000 Seriously.

00:08:05.000 The U.S.

00:08:06.000 Air Force's 18th Space Control Squadron, which tracks man-made objects in orbit around Earth, confirmed the rocket's re-entry was on May 11th at around 11.33 a.m.

00:08:15.000 Initial reports claimed the spacecraft had plummeted into the ocean off Africa's west coast.

00:08:20.000 Now two villages in the Ivory Coast have reported finding what they believe to be debris from the fallen rocket stage, according to images posted to social media and reported in the French-language news organization Afrique Soir.

00:08:32.000 Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, tweeted that the location of one fallen object, a nearly 40-foot-long pipe seen in a number of photos, wow, is directly on the CZ-5B reentry track.

00:08:45.000 Look at that thing. 0.92

00:08:46.000 Whoa, man.

00:08:47.000 Holy cow. 0.89

00:08:47.000 Can you imagine getting hit by that? 0.89

00:08:49.000 Wait, hold on.

00:08:50.000 I got a question, though.

00:08:51.000 It seems like it wasn't close to New York.

00:08:53.000 It was on the west coast of Africa.

00:08:56.000 How is that... I mean, it's the Atlantic, but... Well, perhaps we haven't gotten to that part yet.

00:08:59.000 Oh, okay, okay.

00:08:59.000 So that's a different part of the rocket?

00:09:01.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:09:03.000 I don't know.

00:09:04.000 Let's read it.

00:09:04.000 Go ahead.

00:09:04.000 Yeah, hey, look.

00:09:05.000 They want to claim it nearly hit New York.

00:09:07.000 They better back this up.

00:09:08.000 Yeah, let's go.

00:09:09.000 While there's no official word on whether these pieces of debris are actually parts of the fallen rocket stage, it's looking more and more likely.

00:09:15.000 Lesina Zerbo, Executive Secretary of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization, tweeted May 12th that the International Monitoring System's Infrasound Network, primarily designed to detect nuclear blasts in the atmosphere, registered signals of debris traveling at supersonic speeds in the area.

00:09:31.000 What's the precedent here?

00:09:32.000 In 1991, the Soviet Salyut 7 space station tumbled back to Earth, breaking up over Argentina.

00:09:37.000 The Mir space station, which was decommissioned in 2001 and broke apart during a controlled re-entry above waters near Fiji, is the largest man-made object to re-enter Earth's atmosphere.

00:09:48.000 And NASA's Skylab space station famously pummeled a small Australian town in 1979.

00:09:52.000 Whoa.

00:09:53.000 Yikes, man.

00:09:54.000 I've never heard of that.

00:09:55.000 Jeez.

00:09:56.000 If the Long March 5B core stage landed Earth's atmosphere just 15 minutes earlier, chunks of it very likely could have fallen across New York City, Ars Technica reported.

00:10:05.000 But it isn't the first time China has played fast and loose with falling rocket parts.

00:10:09.000 In March, when China launched its Long March 3B rocket, a booster crash-landed downrange in the Guizhou province.

00:10:17.000 Late last year, another Long March 3B rocket ferried two satellites into orbit, but dropped sections of its boosters on a settlement near the launch site.

00:10:26.000 In 2018, yet another booster fell from the sky after the launch of a Long March 3B rocket and exploded just outside of a small town in the Guangxi province.

00:10:36.000 Witnesses posted stunning video clips of the fallen booster to social media.

00:10:41.000 In addition to smashing into the ground with unbelievable force, these boosters often still have traces of the toxic propellant hydrazine in them.

00:10:49.000 As tempting as it is, if one falls into your yard, don't try to get a closer look.

00:10:55.000 You think your yard would exist still if a 20-ton rocket fell into it? That's insane.

00:11:00.000 So they're saying 15 minutes earlier and it would have hit New York City.

00:11:04.000 Yeah, but they just said, you know what, man?

00:11:07.000 They also said it may have hit.

00:11:07.000 That makes sense.

00:11:08.000 Narrowly missing New York City.

00:11:09.000 15 minutes.

00:11:10.000 I mean, that's all it takes.

00:11:11.000 Or what, New Zealand?

00:11:12.000 It's flipping around.

00:11:13.000 Well, I mean, doesn't the International Space Station go around the globe in 90 minutes?

00:11:18.000 I have no idea.

00:11:19.000 Is that it?

00:11:19.000 I think so, yeah.

00:11:20.000 I think they're flying at like 13,000 miles an hour.

00:11:23.000 So they go around the globe every 90 minutes, I'm pretty sure.

00:11:26.000 Yeah.

00:11:26.000 So it would make sense, I guess.

00:11:28.000 Makes sense.

00:11:28.000 So 15 minutes, they're in Africa.

00:11:30.000 15 minutes earlier, they're hitting New York City.

00:11:33.000 My question, though, what would have happened if it hit New York?

00:11:36.000 War?

00:11:37.000 You think so?

00:11:38.000 No, no.

00:11:39.000 I'm asking.

00:11:39.000 Ooh, sorry, a rocket just decimated one of your biggest cities.

00:11:42.000 I don't think anybody would believe him.

00:11:43.000 That was an accident.

00:11:44.000 That's what I'm thinking.

00:11:45.000 Man, think about, like, the damage you could do with an actual missile.

00:11:50.000 Yeah.

00:11:50.000 But think about how much more damage you'd do with just a giant...

00:11:53.000 100-foot, 20-town slab of steel and debris.

00:11:56.000 That's uncontrollably falling onto Earth.

00:11:59.000 Slams into a building?

00:12:00.000 Yeah.

00:12:00.000 That would just kill so many people.

00:12:03.000 Scary, man.

00:12:03.000 It would streak across the city.

00:12:06.000 Wow, man, that would be nuts.

00:12:08.000 Remember we were talking about the tungsten rod being dropped from the satellite?

00:12:11.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:12:12.000 Like, you don't need a chemical explosive.

00:12:15.000 You can just... We talked about this.

00:12:17.000 The G.I.

00:12:18.000 Joe movie, I think it was?

00:12:19.000 Where the satellite drops a tungsten rod and just wipes out London?

00:12:22.000 Yeah.

00:12:23.000 Okay, I don't think it would be that bad.

00:12:25.000 Who knows?

00:12:26.000 This is something that we've talked about in the past.

00:12:28.000 Like, oh yeah, when was that G.I.

00:12:30.000 Joe movie?

00:12:31.000 When did that come out?

00:12:32.000 That was a long time ago.

00:12:33.000 It was a long time ago.

00:12:34.000 Imagine, like, what they have nowadays.

00:12:36.000 The tungsten rod thing has been, like, theorized for a long time, I guess.

00:12:40.000 Of, like, you know, just, like, firing a high-speed chunk of, like, very dense metal or whatever.

00:12:46.000 Have you seen, uh, Westworld?

00:12:48.000 I've seen the first season and parts of the second season.

00:12:50.000 So, I just finished, no spoilers here, but I just finished the third season, and there's this scene where one of the main characters was in the army, right?

00:12:58.000 And he's doing some, some, he's, like, tagging someone with something.

00:13:01.000 He's got, like, this, uh, These glasses that let him like pinpoint someone and then

00:13:07.000 he's like yeah target acquired hit it And then it cuts to the satellite

00:13:10.000 And it just you see this missile to unlock and just go into space and then drop down out of space and hit this person

00:13:17.000 And the explosions really small just the person just haven't you ever seen the drone strikes in like Palestine or

00:13:22.000 whatever?

00:13:23.000 I mean, I haven't seen these are cool videos of videos man Where you'll see like it's like black and white grainy

00:13:28.000 footage, and they'll be like a box up here over a guy Yeah.

00:13:31.000 And then all of a sudden you'll see just like, boom, and the guy blows up.

00:13:34.000 Just one person.

00:13:35.000 Just one person.

00:13:35.000 It's insane.

00:13:36.000 It's amazing.

00:13:36.000 Yeah, dude.

00:13:36.000 Holy cow.

00:13:37.000 Hey man, look, the United States was like, we want to figure out how to kill somebody.

00:13:42.000 Only the one person.

00:13:43.000 Only the one person.

00:13:44.000 From very far away.

00:13:46.000 Space.

00:13:47.000 We figured it out.

00:13:48.000 Space force.

00:13:48.000 I love it.

00:13:49.000 Drones, Reaper missiles, Hellfire, whatever they're called.

00:13:51.000 Yep.

00:13:52.000 Yeah, so I wonder if If there's going to be anything coming from this, right?

00:13:57.000 Like, look, I know that we didn't get hit by it.

00:13:59.000 Right.

00:13:59.000 But does this, you know, does Donald Trump then come out and be like, Chinese rockets, you're very dangerous.

00:14:05.000 Is there going to be a stern talking to, at the very least?

00:14:07.000 Yeah.

00:14:08.000 Or is it like the science community is like, sorry, our bad.

00:14:12.000 Ooh.

00:14:12.000 The science community of China's?

00:14:14.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:14:15.000 I got a bad track record going on right now, man.

00:14:17.000 You got a good point.

00:14:19.000 Yeah.

00:14:21.000 So, I wonder, we probably have treaties for this stuff, though.

00:14:25.000 Yeah, probably.

00:14:25.000 But I'll tell you what, man, you look at what China does, you look at how they, you know, with climate change, with carbon emissions, and like, they don't care.

00:14:34.000 No.

00:14:35.000 Pollution, plastic waste, they don't care.

00:14:37.000 They're launching rockets, they don't care.

00:14:40.000 No.

00:14:41.000 You think anybody, any of these communist Chinese party people, you know what they're probably doing?

00:14:46.000 Some guy probably walked in and like, I have a very serious report.

00:14:49.000 One of our, you know, 20-ton rocket stages almost crashed in New York.

00:14:53.000 And then, like, some communist guy starts laughing.

00:14:56.000 Almost, huh?

00:14:57.000 Wow, that would've been funny.

00:14:58.000 Is there anything on that report that says it would've hit China?

00:15:01.000 No?

00:15:01.000 Alright, well, why do we care?

00:15:02.000 Yeah, it's actually interesting, because in this article it says that they, it used to, like, here, go ahead, it used to hit, where am I at?

00:15:12.000 There we go.

00:15:13.000 There we go.

00:15:14.000 So their older ones, the 3B somewhere in here, it says that.

00:15:18.000 And it was falling and it was falling on China.

00:15:22.000 So they were hitting their own towns.

00:15:24.000 Very worried about this.

00:15:25.000 So they're like, man, we got to up our game and make the 5B rocket because then it'll go into orbit and we don't have to worry about it anymore.

00:15:32.000 That's what I'm seeing.

00:15:33.000 I mean, I'm just pointing it out.

00:15:35.000 Just pointing out what I'm seeing.

00:15:36.000 My allergies are lighting my face on fire right now.

00:15:39.000 Just to be completely honest, I am...

00:15:41.000 Allergies sound terrible. 0.99

00:15:43.000 They're awful, dude.

00:15:44.000 These trees, man!

00:15:46.000 Not so bad for me, but... I am so grateful I do not have allergies.

00:15:49.000 We basically live in a forest.

00:15:52.000 Thanks.

00:15:52.000 We basically live in a forest.

00:15:54.000 But another funny thing, you think China's hitting itself.

00:15:57.000 You think they care if they hit us?

00:15:58.000 No, they were hitting themselves.

00:16:00.000 Right.

00:16:00.000 Yeah.

00:16:03.000 They solved that problem.

00:16:04.000 That's the thing.

00:16:05.000 They're like, we need a 20 ton rocket now, and then we'll get our stuff all the way out

00:16:10.000 there and then we don't have to worry about it.

00:16:11.000 Further away from us.

00:16:12.000 I get it.

00:16:13.000 I just don't.

00:16:14.000 Yeah, so some guy walks into the Communist Party meetings like, we have a serious problem.

00:16:18.000 Our rockets keep crash landing on our own cities.

00:16:21.000 Hmm.

00:16:22.000 And then they, you know, draw some calculations, and now it's New Zealand, New York, and they're like, good job.

00:16:27.000 That guy got a promotion.

00:16:28.000 That's better.

00:16:29.000 Good work.

00:16:29.000 He got a raise.

00:16:30.000 Now it's not hitting us.

00:16:31.000 But there is more news on the China front.

00:16:33.000 So the question about responsibility is, it's an important one.

00:16:37.000 I know, you know, we're laughing.

00:16:39.000 We're having a good time.

00:16:39.000 Like, what if this 20-ton rocket stage just crashed in New York, killed thousands of people?

00:16:43.000 No, it's not funny, man.

00:16:44.000 No, it's not.

00:16:45.000 China's been doing messed up stuff. 1.00

00:16:47.000 Think about this.

00:16:48.000 If they did something like this intentionally, and then just feign like, oh no, oh, it was an accident, oh yeah, whoa, no, we didn't know.

00:16:55.000 But what about the stuff they do know about, right?

00:16:58.000 Take a look at this story.

00:17:00.000 U.S.

00:17:00.000 officials, Chinese hackers are targeting vaccine research.

00:17:04.000 So, I have talked about this before on my other channels, but look, we've got China doing a few things.

00:17:11.000 There's the I'll use the Simpsons joke.

00:17:15.000 There's subliminal, liminal, and superliminal.

00:17:18.000 Do you remember that joke?

00:17:19.000 No.

00:17:20.000 The guy was talking about how they get people to join the Navy, and then Lisa's like superliminal, and then he opens the window and he goes, hey you, join the Navy!

00:17:28.000 He just yells it out.

00:17:29.000 That's great.

00:17:30.000 So China hires talent scholars or whatever, like talent scouts or something, and they secretly get money from the Chinese government, They lie about it to the Feds, they're not supposed to get this money, and they're not disclosing it to federal agencies that are paying them.

00:17:45.000 So it's basically U.S.

00:17:46.000 tax dollars funding this research, and then these people are giving that information to the Chinese government.

00:17:51.000 Well, selling it, wouldn't they be?

00:17:53.000 Technically, right.

00:17:54.000 Because they're being paid to be in this program.

00:17:56.000 It's like, come on.

00:17:58.000 I wonder when these people are going to get charged with treason or something.

00:18:01.000 We have a cat on the table, by the way.

00:18:02.000 Go to the wide shot.

00:18:03.000 There we go.

00:18:04.000 You can see it.

00:18:05.000 Cat butthole. 1.00

00:18:06.000 He just decided to be on the show.

00:18:08.000 He's joining us.

00:18:08.000 He's our guest.

00:18:10.000 That's the super liminal.

00:18:11.000 I mean, they're still hiding.

00:18:12.000 I'm being somewhat silly.

00:18:14.000 But then they do the disinformation, where they can still feign, oh, no, we didn't do anything wrong.

00:18:19.000 We were just telling our opinions.

00:18:20.000 Yeah.

00:18:21.000 It's not us.

00:18:22.000 And then there's the overt hacking.

00:18:23.000 So that's why, look, man.

00:18:25.000 Is that what this is?

00:18:26.000 Yeah, so they're trying to steal our vaccine research.

00:18:29.000 I mean, we know this.

00:18:30.000 They're actually trying to hack us right now.

00:18:33.000 According to the US government.

00:18:34.000 That's what they're trying to do.

00:18:35.000 That's insane.

00:18:36.000 I believe it.

00:18:36.000 So this doesn't surprise me at all.

00:18:38.000 Actually, hey, maybe you'll see the cat.

00:18:39.000 He's coming over this way.

00:18:40.000 He's trying to push the cup off the table.

00:18:42.000 So what really kind of surprised me about the rocket and them launching this rocket right now was that they have a little bit of a pandemic going on there right now.

00:18:51.000 And they're taking out time to work on a rocket and they're taking out time to target our vaccinations.

00:18:57.000 Well, we're working on our rockets too.

00:18:58.000 We're about to launch.

00:19:00.000 They managed to get one into space.

00:19:02.000 So the timing just caught me off guard a little bit.

00:19:04.000 I was like, what, what are they doing?

00:19:06.000 I mean, we're still doing stuff, right?

00:19:07.000 True.

00:19:08.000 Technically correct.

00:19:09.000 We're locked down.

00:19:10.000 Yeah, I mean, we're about to send, like, in a week, we're gonna send Americans into space. 0.99

00:19:14.000 They just weld people's doors shut.

00:19:16.000 You know what I mean?

00:19:16.000 Yeah, it's very efficient.

00:19:17.000 It's, like, hard for us.

00:19:18.000 Yeah.

00:19:19.000 We got that dang old Constitution.

00:19:21.000 Not like these governors are respecting it or anything, but at least it's still there.

00:19:25.000 Well, at least the courts were on our side on that.

00:19:28.000 On the side of the people.

00:19:29.000 It's crazy to me, it's like...

00:19:32.000 I don't know, man.

00:19:32.000 I think Rogan was asking me this, is like, over time, does society just become authoritarian?

00:19:37.000 Like, China's so old.

00:19:39.000 Like, as a culture, as a civilization.

00:19:41.000 Does it just happen that way?

00:19:43.000 America's young!

00:19:44.000 We're young rebellious!

00:19:46.000 It's like, think about it in terms of, like, an actual human.

00:19:48.000 You know?

00:19:49.000 We're like, teenagers compared to everybody else.

00:19:51.000 And we're like, romping around, we got guns and stuff, and rockets, and we're like, freedom!

00:19:54.000 You can't tell me what to do!

00:19:55.000 Well, I gotta think about, well, what about, like, Europe?

00:19:57.000 I mean, granted, it was, it has changed a lot over the past, 200 years too, you know, but they're... No, you're right, man.

00:20:06.000 The more I think about it, it's like...

00:20:07.000 Europe is a nightmare, bro.

00:20:08.000 Yeah.

00:20:09.000 They don't have free speech.

00:20:10.000 No.

00:20:11.000 They're like super authoritarian.

00:20:12.000 Not to the extent we do, yeah.

00:20:13.000 You're right.

00:20:14.000 Yeah, it just depends on where in Europe I are.

00:20:15.000 But they're like very, very like...

00:20:16.000 You know what I think it is?

00:20:17.000 I think that's the right assessment.

00:20:18.000 I think what happens is people defer to safety always.

00:20:23.000 Yeah.

00:20:24.000 Always, always.

00:20:25.000 So when you get a really, really old civilization, they keep saying it's for your safety over and over again.

00:20:29.000 People just say, okay.

00:20:29.000 Okay.

00:20:31.000 And then they get used to it, right?

00:20:32.000 So, right now everyone's saying, like, could you imagine if we had to get, like, some kind of tattoo to track us?

00:20:39.000 Bro, I know it sounds bad, but let me tell you something.

00:20:42.000 Two generations, nobody would care.

00:20:44.000 Yeah.

00:20:45.000 You'd be born with a tattoo, and you'd get it updated every couple years.

00:20:49.000 and people would be like oh make sure to scan your barcode when you're you know entering the building yeah like we have we have id cards passports social security numbers we have all of these how about like uh uh what is the movie minority report where they walk into the subway and they look at the scanner it's like boop gets their eyes irises boop Welcome, John Anderton.

00:21:09.000 They figured out a way around that.

00:21:11.000 It's called a cell phone.

00:21:12.000 So, basically the way it works.

00:21:14.000 Now they know everything and everywhere you go.

00:21:16.000 Dude, Facebook knows when you poop.

00:21:18.000 Facebook knows when you poop.

00:21:20.000 I don't have Facebook on my phone.

00:21:22.000 It doesn't matter.

00:21:22.000 Well, how did they know then?

00:21:24.000 Bro.

00:21:25.000 Facebook's not on my phone.

00:21:26.000 I never got it on my phone.

00:21:27.000 So what?

00:21:27.000 Doesn't matter.

00:21:28.000 How do they have access to my phone?

00:21:30.000 Does anyone in your family have Facebook?

00:21:32.000 Probably.

00:21:33.000 Boom.

00:21:33.000 Done.

00:21:34.000 How would they know when I poop though?

00:21:36.000 When you text... Please, give me the logic.

00:21:38.000 When you text and communicate with... I don't communicate with others.

00:21:41.000 With your family?

00:21:42.000 No.

00:21:42.000 Never.

00:21:43.000 Yes you do.

00:21:43.000 So here's how, so Facebook has a thing called shadow profiles.

00:21:47.000 So you have a Facebook profile, you also have a shadow profile, and Facebook accidentally released this one day, like a glitch.

00:21:54.000 On accident?

00:21:55.000 Yeah.

00:21:55.000 And people saw their shadow profiles, and it's got crazy stuff in there.

00:21:59.000 Facebook can predict what you will eat.

00:22:02.000 That sounds like Westworld more!

00:22:04.000 See, now I would be spoiling, so I'm not gonna say anything, but man.

00:22:08.000 It's what people need to realize.

00:22:09.000 Oh, man.

00:22:10.000 Let's say you don't have a Facebook account.

00:22:12.000 You do have a Facebook profile.

00:22:13.000 Let's say you... No.

00:22:14.000 No, Tim.

00:22:15.000 I've never signed up for Facebook.

00:22:17.000 You still have a Facebook profile.

00:22:20.000 It's very simple.

00:22:20.000 Yeah, profile.

00:22:21.000 Right.

00:22:22.000 What does a profile do?

00:22:23.000 With all your information.

00:22:24.000 Right.

00:22:25.000 So, check this out.

00:22:26.000 Your mom, your dad, your brother, your sister, your girlfriend, whatever, they all have you saved in their phones as Adam, son, boyfriend, husband, whatever, right?

00:22:40.000 When they download the Facebook app, which is by default on Android phones and can't be deleted.

00:22:45.000 Seriously?

00:22:45.000 Yeah.

00:22:46.000 Oh, geez.

00:22:47.000 So, do you have an Android?

00:22:48.000 No, I don't.

00:22:49.000 Oh, you're lucky.

00:22:49.000 You might still have Facebook on it.

00:22:51.000 So, what happens is, when they open the messenger, it says, would you like to sync your contacts?

00:22:56.000 Facebook gets access to all of the contact list of everyone who knows you, and then here's what they find out.

00:23:01.000 They know who your mom is, they know who your significant other is, who your best friend is, they can tell based on the frequency of like messages and things like that.

00:23:10.000 Now if you actually use the apps, that's when they can really predict your behavior.

00:23:15.000 I want someone's email at Facebook so I can email them when I'm actually pooping.

00:23:20.000 Be like, hey Facebook, I'm pooping.

00:23:21.000 Just so you know.

00:23:22.000 Just so you have a new record.

00:23:23.000 No, no, no, you don't understand.

00:23:24.000 You're gonna draft the email and you're gonna be like, I'll show them.

00:23:28.000 And then your phone's gonna go brrp and you're gonna go, wait what?

00:23:30.000 And it's gonna be like, we know Adam, you don't need to email us.

00:23:32.000 I'm not kidding, I'm not kidding.

00:23:33.000 Before I hit send.

00:23:34.000 Before you hit send.

00:23:35.000 So, I was reading this crazy thing that said, basically, they know where people will eat and what time they will eat because they can start predicting based on when your break time is.

00:23:46.000 So, here's what they know.

00:23:47.000 From the hours of 8.55 until 11.34, your phone doesn't move.

00:23:53.000 Then, it travels three blocks, you know, north to a shopping center.

00:23:58.000 For, you know, 15 minutes, comes back, and then stops moving again.

00:24:02.000 Guess what?

00:24:02.000 They know it's most likely your lunch break and you went to go eat.

00:24:05.000 So they also know based on the things you say, and what time it is,

00:24:08.000 when you're going to go to eat and where you will likely eat.

00:24:13.000 Man, I tell you, there was a, um, this, this test thing that they had a long time ago,

00:24:18.000 I think it was called like the Spark or something, it was a website.

00:24:20.000 Okay.

00:24:21.000 And they created these tests where they could predict things about you, where it would be like, we can prove whether or not you're like a man or a woman, or whether you're white or not white.

00:24:30.000 And they would ask you questions that seemingly made no sense.

00:24:33.000 It would be like, which would you prefer?

00:24:34.000 And then it would show you weird shapes.

00:24:36.000 You'd be like, I don't know, and you just click one, right?

00:24:38.000 Okay.

00:24:39.000 And then at the end, they would tell you, for some reason, white men click this shape and white women click that shape.

00:24:45.000 We don't know why.

00:24:46.000 I want to take this test.

00:24:48.000 It's old.

00:24:48.000 It's from the 90s, man.

00:24:49.000 It's like late 90s research stuff.

00:24:51.000 See how I compare.

00:24:52.000 But there still is a lot of stuff like that, like Jonathan Haidt's research, which does moral foundations testing and stuff like that.

00:25:01.000 So you can see where you are politically, do you believe in liberty and stuff.

00:25:05.000 Is that the one I did like a couple?

00:25:06.000 No, that was a political compass test.

00:25:08.000 Oh, yeah.

00:25:09.000 But anyway, the main point is Facebook can predict when you will poop based on when you eat.

00:25:14.000 What are they selling that info to?

00:25:17.000 Toilet paper companies?

00:25:18.000 No, for real.

00:25:19.000 Toilet paper companies.

00:25:20.000 Think about it.

00:25:21.000 I think they're doing all right in this pandemic.

00:25:24.000 Listen, toilet paper advertiser says we want to maximize sales.

00:25:27.000 Yeah.

00:25:28.000 Facebook says we know when to show your ad for maximum effect.

00:25:33.000 Think about it.

00:25:34.000 Like, on Instagram, like, oh yeah, here, definitely during these times, more people poop.

00:25:39.000 And then look, you'll get an ad, and it'll be like, Scratchy bum, you need double quilted.

00:25:44.000 Bro, what are you doing?

00:25:45.000 And you're gonna be like, dude, I do need it.

00:25:47.000 For real.

00:25:50.000 Dude, I have bought a ton of stuff off of Instagram.

00:25:53.000 Toilet paper?

00:25:53.000 Not toilet paper.

00:25:55.000 This lamp?

00:25:56.000 This lamp?

00:25:56.000 Yep.

00:25:57.000 they knew that with the alien and with the original wanted was the original one from the incident is one night one

00:26:03.000 none of the original the starry night on a lot of that was uh...

00:26:07.000 friend of mine uh... was like

00:26:09.000 but over there somewhere you get that i don't know if you're not you can see it

00:26:12.000 many of the shots so unfortunately it's little it's tiny tiny tiny

00:26:17.000 so think about what all of these other networks now Google probably knows a lot, too.

00:26:22.000 And people don't realize, like, we talk about, like, we can't let them, you know, chip us, right?

00:26:27.000 It's like, bro, you bought your chip.

00:26:29.000 You begged for an upgrade.

00:26:31.000 You were like, bro, upgrade my chip, please.

00:26:34.000 You know, it's funny, I was listening to Rogan, and they were talking about this conspiracy theory, and I really do mean it, where people think their phones are listening to them.

00:26:44.000 They are, aren't they?

00:26:45.000 No.

00:26:45.000 Oh, they're not?

00:26:46.000 It's just algorithms?

00:26:47.000 Well, it depends, right?

00:26:48.000 So there's actually some truth to this.

00:26:51.000 Smart devices always have the microphones on because they have voice activation.

00:26:55.000 Oh, right.

00:26:56.000 So they are listening to you.

00:26:58.000 But when Facebook delivers an ad to you and you were talking about it, it's not because they were listening to you.

00:27:03.000 It's because they know everything about you and can predict your behavior.

00:27:06.000 It's worse than you realize.

00:27:08.000 It's way worse.

00:27:09.000 That is worse.

00:27:10.000 I remember I went to Walmart and they had a sale on TVs.

00:27:14.000 And we were walking through the aisle, and the TVs were in the middle of the aisle, on discount or whatever, and it was a big TV, and I was like, that's a good idea.

00:27:20.000 It was 300 bucks.

00:27:21.000 And I'm like, it's a widescreen TV, we don't have a TV.

00:27:23.000 The TV broke.

00:27:25.000 I'll grab it.

00:27:26.000 So we call the guy over, he puts in the cart.

00:27:28.000 When I got home, I went on Facebook, and there was an ad showing what appeared to be that exact same TV on the stand in the middle, and I was like, what's going on?

00:27:38.000 This is crazy.

00:27:38.000 Interesting.

00:27:39.000 But it wasn't because they were listening to me.

00:27:41.000 It was because they knew I went to Walmart.

00:27:44.000 They knew that I was, you know, a 32-year-old male.

00:27:47.000 That makes sense.

00:27:49.000 Yep.

00:27:49.000 That's the demographic.

00:27:50.000 So they predicted I would probably, you know, want this TV.

00:27:55.000 They were right.

00:27:56.000 Wow.

00:27:56.000 You know what the most annoying thing about all that is, though?

00:27:58.000 No, I don't.

00:27:59.000 Why don't you tell me?

00:27:59.000 You ever get an advertisement for something you already bought?

00:28:02.000 Yep.

00:28:03.000 Like you just explained.

00:28:04.000 But right, but like even worse, like you go to Amazon, and you'll be like, I need some, you know, double-quilted TP, bro.

00:28:09.000 And then you buy it, and then all of a sudden you go to a website and you see all these ads for double-quilted.

00:28:12.000 You're like, dude, I already ordered it!

00:28:14.000 Why are you advertising this to me?

00:28:15.000 Okay, something like toilet paper you keep getting.

00:28:17.000 Yeah, but like right af- okay.

00:28:20.000 Forget toilet paper.

00:28:21.000 Let's say, let's say you order a fancy new... I think the TV summed it up right there.

00:28:24.000 Pro, pro tech deck.

00:28:26.000 Let's say, let's say you get the fancy tech deck with the fancy little... Are those pro?

00:28:30.000 This, this is the, I just put the grip tape on a regular one because I don't, I don't like, yeah, these are the pro ones.

00:28:33.000 These are like, we had to build these.

00:28:35.000 Although you said that they're not that good though.

00:28:37.000 I don't like it.

00:28:37.000 I don't.

00:28:38.000 No, not this one specifically.

00:28:39.000 There's, there's better ones.

00:28:41.000 It's pretty legit though.

00:28:41.000 It's wood.

00:28:42.000 It is, but the pop is bad.

00:28:44.000 I mean, I don't know how to even pop these things.

00:28:46.000 Yeah, nah.

00:28:46.000 They're good fun.

00:28:48.000 But, uh, I ordered some better ones with better grip with bigger noses and tails.

00:28:51.000 Anyway, the point is, I bought it already.

00:28:53.000 I don't need any more.

00:28:54.000 I've got it.

00:28:55.000 Look, it's a tech deck.

00:28:56.000 Well, it's not tech, it's a fingerboard.

00:28:58.000 Why are they advertising them to me?

00:29:00.000 Because you're not happy with those.

00:29:01.000 You know what's funny?

00:29:02.000 You said it, right?

00:29:03.000 You said they don't have enough pop?

00:29:04.000 You want something better?

00:29:05.000 Maybe they know.

00:29:06.000 They know you so well.

00:29:07.000 But they're advertising the ones I don't want.

00:29:08.000 Oh, the same ones?

00:29:09.000 Yes!

00:29:10.000 Oh, okay.

00:29:10.000 That's the point.

00:29:12.000 I'll let everybody in on a secret.

00:29:14.000 When you're watching my videos, look at the advertisements when I'm reading news stories, and you'll know what we're doing.

00:29:21.000 So there's been a few videos where it's like, the ads are for B&H and for camera equipment and tripods.

00:29:27.000 It's because we're setting up the new show.

00:29:30.000 Yeah, I took a screenshot of one of your videos one time and I was like, look what Tim has for his ads.

00:29:35.000 He has skateboards, he has skate shoes and he had, I forget what else you had, almost like beanies or something.

00:29:41.000 Skate ramps was on there for a while.

00:29:43.000 We were doing segments and I kept seeing the skate block that you ordered and I'm like, What?

00:29:49.000 You know where I was just skating that earlier and then and then if those are listening if you're watching

00:29:54.000 Watching what the ads are you can then like comment be like how's the new the new skate box Tim?

00:30:00.000 Well, I mean is it an ad for something that you already got or something that you're probably gonna buy

00:30:05.000 So there's a company called there's two companies There's OC Ramps and there's Keen Ramps.

00:30:10.000 And I think, I'm pretty sure the mini ramp we have is Keen.

00:30:13.000 Yeah.

00:30:14.000 So it's good.

00:30:15.000 It's a good ramp.

00:30:15.000 It's really good.

00:30:16.000 And so I just ordered another smaller one for like practice.

00:30:19.000 Is it from Keen also?

00:30:20.000 Yes.

00:30:20.000 Nice.

00:30:21.000 I'm pretty sure it is.

00:30:22.000 I've seen that little ramp actually.

00:30:23.000 They did a giveaway like a week ago or something.

00:30:27.000 On Instagram.

00:30:28.000 Yeah.

00:30:28.000 The lockdown's jamming up delivery, but yeah.

00:30:32.000 When you see the ads, it'll be an ad for the whole company.

00:30:35.000 So you'll see a grind rail.

00:30:36.000 You won't know exactly what it is that I bought.

00:30:38.000 But I think it's really funny because I was looking at the price of gold and silver once, and then all of a sudden all the ads were for gold and silver.

00:30:44.000 And I'm like, I wonder if people are going to catch this.

00:30:47.000 You know, I've actually thought that multiple times, and not one person has asked us, like, hey, about the ads.

00:30:54.000 It feels like people are, well, thankfully, they're probably listening to what we're talking about.

00:30:59.000 Hopefully, yeah, right.

00:31:00.000 You know, not analyzing everything.

00:31:03.000 Well, I think a lot of people are just listening, too.

00:31:05.000 Yeah, like while they're doing stuff, that makes sense.

00:31:07.000 So, well, actually, let me ask you guys.

00:31:09.000 Good thing or bad thing?

00:31:11.000 What?

00:31:11.000 that the computers know what you want before you even know what you want.

00:31:15.000 Well, I mean, I don't want to see ads for...

00:31:17.000 I can't think of random things that I would never buy or never even...

00:31:23.000 I don't know, it's...

00:31:25.000 Is it a good thing?

00:31:26.000 Is it a bad thing?

00:31:26.000 It's just a thing.

00:31:27.000 I don't know.

00:31:29.000 What do you think?

00:31:30.000 I think it tends to be, based on whatever you're looking at, it could be good or bad.

00:31:35.000 I don't know.

00:31:37.000 It's the same thing.

00:31:38.000 It's kind of neutral.

00:31:39.000 My question is, if you were sitting here one day and an ad popped up for this UFO thing and you were like, I want that, would you be happy?

00:31:47.000 And then you bought it.

00:31:48.000 Like, I bought that.

00:31:49.000 I saw an ad on Instagram and I was like, I would like to buy that.

00:31:52.000 Full disclosure, I do that all the time.

00:31:54.000 So it's a good thing.

00:31:54.000 Yeah, works for me.

00:31:55.000 I don't know.

00:31:56.000 Every single time anyone has ever told... I've never bought anything off Instagram.

00:32:00.000 In fact, when Facebook first bought Instagram, the ads were just insane.

00:32:06.000 And I would report every single ad for being trash.

00:32:09.000 To the point of, I would go on Instagram to block ads.

00:32:12.000 And I was like, what am I even doing on Instagram?

00:32:14.000 And I kind of stopped Instagramming for a while.

00:32:16.000 But now it's to the point where anyone's like, oh, yeah, I got this thing on Instagram.

00:32:20.000 And I just all I can think is just there's a little like giggle, like sucker.

00:32:26.000 Half the stuff is made in China.

00:32:29.000 Half of it's POSs.

00:32:31.000 I mean, actually more way more than half.

00:32:33.000 There's a lot of it that I'm just like, that's just going to be trash one day.

00:32:37.000 I bet this is made in China. 1.00

00:32:38.000 I mean, sure, that UFO has.

00:32:40.000 We've had a lot of fun on the show with the UFO.

00:32:42.000 When it stops spinning, everyone starts like saying, Spin the UFO!

00:32:45.000 It's been great.

00:32:46.000 It's part of the show, so for us, it does make sense.

00:32:50.000 There you go.

00:32:50.000 Spin that UFO.

00:32:51.000 There we go.

00:32:51.000 Spin!

00:33:09.000 Spin Well, look at the cool thing we got!

00:33:11.000 It's levitating!

00:33:12.000 It's amazing!

00:33:12.000 It's sure floating!

00:33:13.000 Yeah, sure, it's cool.

00:33:14.000 That's cool.

00:33:14.000 Yeah, cool.

00:33:15.000 Cool, dude.

00:33:15.000 It's like anti-gravity, man.

00:33:17.000 Great.

00:33:17.000 It's very cool.

00:33:19.000 It's a bad thing when they're advertising things you already bought.

00:33:21.000 That's stupid.

00:33:22.000 But think about this, like, okay, so we often project Our current technological state to the future.

00:33:29.000 Yeah, okay.

00:33:29.000 So instead of thinking about, well we can't, we can't predict for the most part.

00:33:33.000 So we take things we already have and we exaggerate them, right?

00:33:36.000 So a good example is Back to the Future.

00:33:37.000 Right.

00:33:38.000 He goes to the future, it's 20, what was it, 2015?

00:33:39.000 Yeah.

00:33:40.000 And his shoes tied themselves.

00:33:42.000 Yeah.

00:33:42.000 Or whatever it is, like clothes shrank.

00:33:43.000 It's like, it's an exaggeration of what already existed.

00:33:46.000 There's a really funny graphic that I remember seeing once, where it was like in the year 1900, what they thought the year 2000 would be like.

00:33:52.000 Okay.

00:33:52.000 And it was firefighters with mechanical wings flying.

00:33:55.000 Like, because it was a technology they had, but they were like, what if it was better?

00:34:00.000 So we can't make that same mistake.

00:34:02.000 So, you know, I'm thinking about what's the logical conclusion of these weird AI advertisement stuff?

00:34:08.000 And the assumption is we live in a world where before you even think you want it, it's delivered to you.

00:34:14.000 Like, you're sitting there and you're like, man, I'm hungry.

00:34:16.000 Like, before you even say you want it, it's like eggs, just like, you know, a robot comes in and drops eggs, fried eggs.

00:34:21.000 Right, it's been like a certain amount of time, so you're probably gonna be hungry.

00:34:23.000 No plate, just drop it right on the table.

00:34:26.000 No, no, no, no, served up right for you.

00:34:27.000 It's like, your chair brings you to the bathroom before you even know you have to go, and you're like, I don't have to, oh.

00:34:32.000 Oh, I do!

00:34:33.000 Oh, hey, look!

00:34:33.000 The turtle's peaking, poking his head out!

00:34:35.000 And then eventually we're just like, we're just like, we don't move, we're sitting in chairs.

00:34:40.000 Like in WALL-E.

00:34:41.000 Yeah, WALL-E world.

00:34:42.000 Exactly, exactly.

00:34:43.000 Oh, that's such a great movie.

00:34:44.000 But I don't think so.

00:34:45.000 I don't think so.

00:34:46.000 I don't think so because that's projecting, right?

00:34:48.000 Yeah, it is.

00:34:49.000 There was, I don't know if you saw the story, there was some crazy story about how we've discovered a way to reverse aging by like 54% or something.

00:34:56.000 What?

00:34:58.000 Really?

00:34:58.000 54%?

00:34:58.000 They did some kind of plasma transfusion between mice and found like ridiculous aging reversal.

00:35:04.000 Whoa.

00:35:05.000 So it's not peer-reviewed yet.

00:35:07.000 So this is new?

00:35:09.000 Yeah, it's new.

00:35:11.000 I was reading some report from this guy on Twitter, some PhD guy, and he's like, this looks legit.

00:35:15.000 The goal now is to figure out what in young plasma is causing cellular repair, and then you get a pill, you get an injection, and then you'd basically be like 28 forever.

00:35:27.000 That sounds good.

00:35:29.000 So that's, I bring that up.

00:35:30.000 And also frightening.

00:35:32.000 Maybe a little, yeah.

00:35:33.000 Yeah, dude.

00:35:34.000 Watching Altered Carbon.

00:35:35.000 Yeah, man.

00:35:36.000 Nah, I'm not, I'm not.

00:35:37.000 The rich just keep getting richer and stay the same age?

00:35:40.000 Nah.

00:35:42.000 The question, I guess, is.

00:35:43.000 Scary, dude.

00:35:44.000 I was watching this thing about immortality.

00:35:46.000 Okay.

00:35:46.000 And they said, the only reason we actually think immortality is a bad thing is because we age.

00:35:53.000 And so somebody who's 60 or 70 who has chronic health problems is like, immortality sucks.

00:35:58.000 Right.

00:35:58.000 Because we know that's in our future, most of us would say the same thing.

00:36:01.000 Alright.

00:36:02.000 But there was a- the argument- If we could stay at our peak- If you could stay 28 years old- Yeah.

00:36:07.000 Then most people would prefer to stay 28 forever.

00:36:09.000 Okay.

00:36:09.000 Even if it meant, like, at 100 you would die, but if you were immortal, it's like being young forever.

00:36:13.000 You're healthy, you're fine, you just want to keep living.

00:36:16.000 Hm.

00:36:16.000 I think it's a bad thing, though.

00:36:18.000 At least for now.

00:36:20.000 But- Yeah, there's too much greed in the world.

00:36:22.000 It's not about the greed.

00:36:23.000 It's about human development.

00:36:25.000 Okay.

00:36:26.000 Well, what is stopping it from being what you would want it to be?

00:36:31.000 Greed.

00:36:32.000 You know what, man?

00:36:32.000 It's a sad reality, but people die, and it's a good thing.

00:36:35.000 That's true.

00:36:35.000 In terms of like, we pass on our knowledge and our secrets to our youth, who then get a new chance at experiencing the world, and developing things and shaping things the way they see it, and we pass on.

00:36:50.000 So it's like, we get our time here, To learn, develop, grow, make the changes we think, and then we pass that information down, and that causes evolution and development and, you know.

00:37:00.000 Yeah, we need boundaries.

00:37:01.000 Think about it this way.

00:37:02.000 Imagine if a scientist from, you know, who was born in the 1700s was alive today.

00:37:08.000 Okay.

00:37:09.000 He'd probably accept a bunch of things as true, but he'd have so many ingrained falsehoods.

00:37:14.000 So it's like, I was reading about the discovery of like, I think it was special relativity, or maybe the Big Bang.

00:37:20.000 Okay.

00:37:20.000 And there's always a group of scientists that reject the newer theories and really, really put scrutiny, you know, scrutinize it.

00:37:27.000 I was talking to this physicist guy about M-theory, which is like, it's like, I'm not super familiar with it, but a unified theory, I guess, like a theory of the universe, theory of everything.

00:37:35.000 Okay.

00:37:36.000 And there's this guy named, I think his name is Garrett Lisey, who has the extremely simple

00:37:41.000 theory of everything.

00:37:42.000 This is all really old stuff.

00:37:43.000 It's probably changed a whole lot.

00:37:45.000 But I was talking to this physicist who said there's a problem in physics in that these

00:37:48.000 scientists have dedicated their whole lives to this theory.

00:37:52.000 So that if it turns out it's wrong, their whole life, their work, their legacy is wrong.

00:37:57.000 Or they spent their entire life to figure out that it was wrong.

00:38:00.000 They don't see it that way.

00:38:01.000 Think about it this way.

00:38:02.000 I don't see it that way.

00:38:03.000 Like, think about it this way.

00:38:04.000 Like, you spend, you know, 10 years building this very beautiful, like, model house.

00:38:10.000 And then, all of a sudden, one day, it falls apart.

00:38:14.000 Okay.

00:38:14.000 You didn't spend 10 years to figure out that the final touch would collapse.

00:38:17.000 You were trying to build this beautiful house and now you're like,

00:38:19.000 everything I've built has been, you know, for nothing.

00:38:21.000 Okay.

00:38:22.000 So they reject it.

00:38:23.000 It's not even about whether or not they could accept they were wrong and be like,

00:38:26.000 I have successfully proven it false.

00:38:28.000 Some people do.

00:38:29.000 Yeah.

00:38:29.000 It's about them resisting and being like, I don't believe that.

00:38:33.000 I don't believe.

00:38:34.000 No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:38:35.000 That's them losing the science part of it and it becoming like an emotional investment.

00:38:40.000 Right.

00:38:41.000 You know, like part of their fundamentals, you know, and it's like when you start off as a scientist, science, you know, it's all about changing and learning and testing and figuring out what works.

00:38:52.000 So if you can't see that it works and it takes you 30 years to figure out that it doesn't work, Then you're the scientist that did it, and if that's not what you're focused on, then it's a fundamental issue with the human that is the scientist.

00:39:06.000 You know what I mean?

00:39:07.000 It is.

00:39:07.000 It's a human problem.

00:39:08.000 Yeah.

00:39:08.000 That's why I'm saying, you know, somebody develops a theory, then, you know, they retire, they die, they've had their time on Earth, and then the younger person, who is less invested, says, hey, wait a minute.

00:39:21.000 This right here disproves that!

00:39:23.000 Whoa! 0.71

00:39:24.000 And now they develop and then less attachments.

00:39:28.000 So I'd imagine if humans were immortal and didn't die, then there would be cultural artifacts that would persist that are detrimental, that make no sense, that maybe made sense at a certain point don't make sense now.

00:39:41.000 kind of shining a light on how vulnerable we actually really are because imagine if all the drugs in the world and I mean drugs like vaccines and everything we have to fight any ailment that the human body goes through like what if it all went away how many people would actually die then you know how many of us are actually strong enough to survive at that point you know because we're keeping humans alive for so long now right I mean it's That's a tough question, man.

00:40:11.000 It's kind of crazy.

00:40:13.000 Are we getting stronger or are we getting weaker?

00:40:16.000 We're kind of fending off death with our man-made stuff, right?

00:40:23.000 That's some dangerous thinking there, Adam.

00:40:25.000 That's to stick to your work and keep your mouth shut.

00:40:28.000 That's what this is making me think of.

00:40:29.000 You were talking about us getting stronger and passing on our stuff, but we're not passing on our immunities.

00:40:35.000 We're passing on the drug that Just kills the virus that would have killed us that we don't have immunity to anymore We've got we've got a serious conundrum in our in in civilization Yeah, and that's you know, there's very there.

00:40:48.000 Do you know what Fermi's paradox is?

00:40:51.000 I feel like we've talked about it a couple times, probably.

00:40:55.000 Which one of the paradoxes is it?

00:40:57.000 Well, it's the question of, if the universe is so big, why haven't we discovered alien life?

00:41:01.000 I'm simplifying it.

00:41:02.000 But one of them, I think, is that... Or that there's definitely life out there.

00:41:06.000 That's what it's basically saying.

00:41:08.000 The paradox is, in all likelihood, there is.

00:41:11.000 So why haven't we found them?

00:41:13.000 And there's a bunch of proposed answers.

00:41:16.000 I think one of them is very simple.

00:41:18.000 We evolve in a way to survive.

00:41:21.000 But once we've conquered our survival, then these things actually become extremely detrimental.

00:41:27.000 When you have ten people living in the wilderness together, doing everything in our power to save someone's life is crucial to the success of the tribe.

00:41:36.000 When you have 7.6 billion people doing everything to ensure that literally everyone survives, becomes eventually detrimental in certain ways.

00:41:47.000 So we see the persistence of genetic diseases that, you know, we've basically separated ourselves from this.

00:41:53.000 Now, we're smart enough to actually get rid of some of these diseases and start improving us, so I don't know if it's necessarily pro or con in many aspects.

00:42:02.000 But I think it is true that we're at a weird point where it is an ethical, moral conundrum when you have people who provide nothing to the greater society in terms of survivability actually become net detriments to it.

00:42:16.000 In a lot of cases, they have no choice.

00:42:19.000 The people?

00:42:19.000 Yeah, the people.

00:42:20.000 Not everyone has even the chance or ever will have the chance to help society further itself because society is insane.

00:42:27.000 It's huge.

00:42:27.000 Are you alive?

00:42:31.000 You know what I mean?

00:42:32.000 Like, so... It's a conundrum of... If we were a tribe of 30 people, and there was someone who was, like, a vegetable... Like, people would... Like, in a coma?

00:42:44.000 Like, totally brain-dead.

00:42:45.000 Yeah, what are they gonna do?

00:42:48.000 I don't know, because there could be historical... If we were a tribe in the middle of the woods, they would probably die.

00:42:53.000 You can't feed them.

00:42:54.000 Right, they would die.

00:42:54.000 So we've invented technology to provide nutrients to sustain someone who's literally just consuming resources and energy, because we have a moral obligation to protect life.

00:43:06.000 That's a challenge.

00:43:08.000 It is.

00:43:09.000 Because I certainly think we should save the lives.

00:43:11.000 You know what I mean?

00:43:12.000 Let's talk about the money.

00:43:13.000 I mean, who's we?

00:43:15.000 Yeah.

00:43:15.000 You said we got the money.

00:43:16.000 It's like, but then that hospital that say it costs $50,000 to keep someone on a respirator and being fed catheter system, what all the whole, go ahead.

00:43:28.000 You definitely want to say something right now.

00:43:30.000 Go.

00:43:30.000 What better use of public funds as moral people do we have than taking care of people who can't take care of themselves through no fault of their own?

00:43:39.000 I know, it's so easy to say that, but that is not the way it is.

00:43:42.000 Yeah, I know, it's in the perfect world.

00:43:44.000 Right?

00:43:45.000 We spend more money killing, figuring out ways to kill people.

00:43:48.000 What happens when the Xenotaxans come from the Galactic Federation and start firebombing our oil fields and now we're like, we need hospital beds for the wounded. 0.91

00:43:58.000 What do we do?

00:43:58.000 You got triage.

00:43:59.000 Do we kick those people out of the hospitals? 0.91

00:44:01.000 Yeah, you would have to.

00:44:01.000 That's the point I'm making.

00:44:03.000 So it's like, right now... At peace, yeah?

00:44:06.000 We have a moral obligation to save all life.

00:44:07.000 So there are some people who have never had a thought in their lives.

00:44:13.000 It's true.

00:44:14.000 And I know some people who have family members who were born with severe mental disabilities, don't speak, are considered to be essentially comatose or severely developmentally disabled.

00:44:29.000 And they're legally obligated and morally obligated to do everything they can to save this life.

00:44:35.000 And I agree.

00:44:37.000 But I also recognize the potential philosophical conundrum.

00:44:40.000 I guess when it comes to a real conflict, we're not going to provide resources for these people.

00:44:45.000 We're already there, aren't we?

00:44:46.000 didn't we have like the do not resuscitate orders the people the doctors that were like that person's dead this person's more important yeah save them instead of them well that's just that happened in italy that happened here right but it's already happened yeah so we're already past that point The craziest thing about it is that most of our hospitals weren't overrun.

00:45:08.000 Right, that's what I'm hearing.

00:45:09.000 It was key hospitals that were overrun.

00:45:11.000 And so that resulted in them being like, this hospital, we can't do it.

00:45:15.000 So you die.

00:45:16.000 Yeah, what do you do, man?

00:45:19.000 What do you do?

00:45:20.000 I don't know.

00:45:21.000 I'm glad I was not a doctor in that situation, that I had to make that choice.

00:45:25.000 When you go too far to the extremes, you end up with no good answer, right?

00:45:29.000 You go full fascist and they're like, unplug them!

00:45:31.000 And you go too far left and they're like, don't unplug them and don't provide resources to those who truly need it.

00:45:38.000 It's like logic versus emotion, I guess.

00:45:43.000 And man, it's tough.

00:45:44.000 If you lose your emotion, you become a robot.

00:45:46.000 Nobody wants to be the Borg.

00:45:48.000 But if you lose your logic, you become just like, you collapse.

00:45:51.000 You can't function properly.

00:45:56.000 Yep.

00:45:56.000 Oh, man.

00:45:59.000 So I guess somehow we got into this conversation talking about immortality.

00:46:02.000 Yeah, how did we get here?

00:46:03.000 Because I was talking about like scientific development or something.

00:46:05.000 Right.

00:46:06.000 And we're talking about immortality.

00:46:07.000 That's great.

00:46:07.000 That's fun.

00:46:08.000 I like that.

00:46:08.000 That's fun.

00:46:09.000 That was great.

00:46:10.000 It was deep questions.

00:46:11.000 You're just hitting them up, though.

00:46:12.000 That's nice.

00:46:13.000 So here's my question.

00:46:14.000 Would you take immortality?

00:46:17.000 If the vampire Lestat walked in right now, and it was literally Tom Cruise... Absolutely.

00:46:24.000 No hesitation.

00:46:26.000 That was a great book, by the way.

00:46:27.000 The book?

00:46:28.000 I've seen the movie.

00:46:29.000 Lestat.

00:46:29.000 The book, Lestat.

00:46:29.000 Oh, Lestat.

00:46:30.000 I've seen an interview with a vampire.

00:46:33.000 Also a good book.

00:46:34.000 Vampire thing aside, that's silly, but yeah, would you take immortality?

00:46:39.000 Man, I don't know.

00:46:40.000 I mean, I would want to say yes, because I would love to see the civilization in the future where we colonize this whole solar system, travel around, go to the different planets, see it all.

00:46:58.000 I mean, I think about Star Trek was one of my favorite shows.

00:47:00.000 When you asked me, If I would want to be immortal, the first thing I'd think of is, oh man, I could travel the stars then.

00:47:06.000 I can actually travel the universe and not have to worry about dying.

00:47:11.000 But are we talking about biological immortality where you just don't age?

00:47:14.000 Right.

00:47:15.000 Or like you're Wolverine, invincible, you know, regenerating and you can't, literally can't die.

00:47:19.000 I'll take that.

00:47:20.000 Yeah.

00:47:20.000 That sounds good too.

00:47:21.000 What happened to the heat death of the universe, man?

00:47:23.000 Life won't last forever.

00:47:25.000 You'll be just floating around in all pure blackness.

00:47:27.000 I mean, didn't, didn't Wolverine die?

00:47:29.000 Well, but yeah, but I'm talking about... Eventually.

00:47:31.000 Spoiler, I guess, from Logan.

00:47:33.000 Didn't he though?

00:47:34.000 I don't actually remember, did he or not?

00:47:35.000 I'm using him as just like an example.

00:47:37.000 What I mean is... I will become immortal if I have the choice to kill myself eventually.

00:47:42.000 That's what I was gonna say.

00:47:43.000 Boom.

00:47:43.000 I'd say yes.

00:47:44.000 How about now?

00:47:45.000 Because then I'd be like, 100 years from now, I'd be like, that was fun, seppuku! 0.52

00:47:50.000 What a way to go.

00:47:51.000 It's like Korean. 0.62

00:47:52.000 It's like, actually you have to slice off your left ankle.

00:47:56.000 What?

00:47:57.000 I don't think I can do that.

00:47:58.000 Like the one weakness is your Achilles heel.

00:48:00.000 It's like, well, it's time to go.

00:48:01.000 Let me get that.

00:48:02.000 Yep, that's it.

00:48:04.000 Just flick it.

00:48:05.000 Well, you could be a skateboarder.

00:48:07.000 But hold on, man.

00:48:08.000 My ankles are screaming.

00:48:09.000 You're very idealistic.

00:48:10.000 Maybe I am.

00:48:11.000 Because what if the future isn't we explore the stars?

00:48:13.000 It's a bunch of SJWs start locking people in gulags.

00:48:18.000 What was it?

00:48:18.000 Hair Carry?

00:48:20.000 What?

00:48:20.000 Harry Carrey?

00:48:22.000 Isn't that another term for it?

00:48:24.000 Harry Carrey?

00:48:24.000 Harry Carrey is the guy from the Cubs?

00:48:27.000 No, no, no.

00:48:29.000 It sounds the same.

00:48:30.000 Yeah.

00:48:31.000 I don't know.

00:48:32.000 Seppuku?

00:48:32.000 Harry Carrey?

00:48:34.000 Harry Carrey was the guy who talked like this.

00:48:36.000 And he was like a Cubs announcer.

00:48:37.000 Also, what was that?

00:48:39.000 It's Seppuku.

00:48:39.000 It is the same thing.

00:48:40.000 It's a similar, like, suicidal thing.

00:48:43.000 Harry Carrey?

00:48:44.000 Yeah, it's spelled H-A-R-I-K-A-R-I.

00:48:47.000 Oh, excuse me.

00:48:50.000 Yeah, excuse me.

00:48:51.000 You're from Chicago.

00:48:52.000 So of course, I know, but funny thing is, I'm from Chicago, too.

00:48:57.000 So whenever I say it, I think of him doing it.

00:49:02.000 That's not, that's brutal.

00:49:03.000 I know!

00:49:04.000 This makes no sense.

00:49:05.000 Yeah, but I loved him, man.

00:49:06.000 He was hilarious.

00:49:07.000 I went and saw him a bunch.

00:49:09.000 He's the announcer for the Cubs.

00:49:11.000 Was.

00:49:11.000 Well, he was.

00:49:12.000 Rest his soul.

00:49:13.000 For many, many years in Wrigley Field in Chicago.

00:49:15.000 So, us growing up in Chicago, like, we think Harry Caray, and it's just like, I'm Harry Caray!

00:49:21.000 He spoke like this!

00:49:23.000 He's a funny guy.

00:49:23.000 You know what, man?

00:49:24.000 Let me ask you another question.

00:49:26.000 Oh, please.

00:49:26.000 I love these deep questions.

00:49:27.000 What if they couldn't preserve your body, but they could preserve your consciousness digitally?

00:49:31.000 In a stack?

00:49:32.000 No, no, like in a virtual... Yeah, basically like in a stack and alter carbon.

00:49:37.000 No, no, Black Mirror.

00:49:39.000 Oh, okay.

00:49:39.000 I don't know what... It's when they go to retire.

00:49:42.000 They're like 80.

00:49:43.000 They download their brains into a server where all of a sudden they're in their 20s and they're in digital retirement episodes.

00:49:48.000 Oh, yeah, I did see that episode.

00:49:50.000 And now you're young and you're partying and you're like... Doing whatever you want forever?

00:49:54.000 Yeah.

00:49:55.000 I mean, it sounds good.

00:49:56.000 I don't know.

00:49:57.000 I mean, do I have any say, or can anyone have any say on the outside world?

00:50:02.000 Or once you're in there, you're like, cut off?

00:50:05.000 I guess, well, no.

00:50:05.000 Because that's a big difference.

00:50:07.000 Like, you can still communicate with people because they come visit you.

00:50:09.000 They can come in, hang out on the server.

00:50:11.000 Interesting.

00:50:11.000 Was there a Futurama episode?

00:50:12.000 I'm surprised you didn't go Futurama with that.

00:50:15.000 Uh, no, the Futurama one I think is they're, like, just comatose or something.

00:50:19.000 They're, like, in a library of retirement where they're, like, plugged in.

00:50:21.000 No, I think that's what it is.

00:50:22.000 I think they're in a virtual world.

00:50:23.000 Yeah, it is a virtual world.

00:50:24.000 Yeah, but the Black Mirror one was, that's a show, right?

00:50:27.000 More spot on, yeah.

00:50:28.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:50:29.000 Yeah, because, yeah, Juniper?

00:50:31.000 Yeah, San Juniper or something?

00:50:33.000 Yeah, something like that.

00:50:34.000 Yeah, they're, like, partying and stuff, and they're, like, young forever.

00:50:37.000 I think it'd be weird because you'd have, like, one server that's the 19—like, people born in the 1920s.

00:50:42.000 Yeah.

00:50:43.000 And they're, like, all super racist and, like, very, like, traditional.

00:50:47.000 Okay.

00:50:48.000 And so then you wouldn't mix the people who were born in the 70s who are all, like, you know— Hippies, hippies.

00:50:52.000 Yeah, okay.

00:50:53.000 No, born in the 70s are not hippies!

00:50:54.000 Born in the 70s, yeah, yeah.

00:50:55.000 Children of hippies.

00:50:56.000 Gen Xers. 0.94

00:50:58.000 Whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:50:58.000 I know a lot of... I have a lot of older cousins that were born in the 70s.

00:51:03.000 They were definitely hippies.

00:51:04.000 Oh, were they?

00:51:06.000 Yes, definitely.

00:51:07.000 What I'm saying is... Well, their parents were hippies, too, so it kind of... Boomers were hippies.

00:51:12.000 The people born in the 50s who were late teenagers in the 70s were hippies.

00:51:17.000 I read something crazy.

00:51:18.000 I read that Woodstock, there was a pandemic during Woodstock.

00:51:20.000 What, really?

00:51:21.000 Yeah, flu pandemic.

00:51:22.000 Oh, wow.

00:51:22.000 Yeah, and they're like, nobody cared.

00:51:24.000 They're like, it's because it only affected older people.

00:51:27.000 Right.

00:51:27.000 And so the question was then, it's like, I think this was like some economic council.

00:51:31.000 They were like, if that's the case, man, we've, I don't think they made this argument, but it's kind of like, we prioritize safety.

00:51:38.000 Isn't that kind of what's going, what we're finding out about COVID?

00:51:41.000 It's kind of, it's killing all these older folk that were already at risk.

00:51:46.000 If they've gotten the flu, they probably would have died also.

00:51:49.000 People with no vitamin D. Yeah.

00:51:51.000 Get outside, get some sunshine more often.

00:51:53.000 But they're telling you to stay inside.

00:51:54.000 And now there's this whole thing about like kids are, there's this new thing that's going around.

00:51:59.000 Inflammatory syndrome.

00:52:00.000 It sounds like a scare tactic, honestly.

00:52:02.000 It does, man.

00:52:03.000 It sounds like they're trying to scare people to continue on.

00:52:05.000 Look at South Dakota.

00:52:07.000 Yeah, nothing happened, right?

00:52:08.000 Nothing happened.

00:52:09.000 So, for those that don't know, South Dakota never locked down, and the media attacked them relentlessly, and then they still refused, and now it's three weeks on from when they were being attacked.

00:52:21.000 The media was like, South Dakota, the new hot spot.

00:52:23.000 Three weeks later, nothing.

00:52:25.000 And, of course, they're not talking about it.

00:52:26.000 Right, they don't talk about that part.

00:52:27.000 It's like, no, no, no, no, don't talk about it.

00:52:29.000 Meanwhile, Los Angeles is like, we must lock down indefinitely until there's a cure for a virus?

00:52:33.000 Yeah.

00:52:34.000 What are you talking about?

00:52:35.000 And no wonder that the Republican just won in California, didn't they, or something?

00:52:38.000 I don't know exactly what went down, but... 25th district.

00:52:42.000 This is a good opportunity to talk about the next segment.

00:52:45.000 Let's do it.

00:52:45.000 This.

00:52:46.000 YouTube CEO.

00:52:48.000 Users don't like authoritative mainstream media, but we boost them anyway.

00:52:53.000 All right, the first thing you have to do if you're listening to this.

00:52:56.000 I have to laugh, I have to.

00:52:57.000 Like the video, hit the like button, subscribe, notification bell, and then share this.

00:53:01.000 Before they shut us down?

00:53:02.000 Because no, it's gonna get good.

00:53:04.000 I got some, I'm gonna drag some of these lefty journalists who are angry that people can share YouTube links.

00:53:11.000 That's amazing.

00:53:12.000 Why would they be mad, though?

00:53:13.000 Because they can't control the narrative.

00:53:15.000 Yeah, dude.

00:53:16.000 Oh, right, okay, okay.

00:53:17.000 This is nuts, check it out.

00:53:18.000 We know this, we know that nobody likes these videos.

00:53:22.000 Listen.

00:53:23.000 Look up CNN or any one of these, you know CBS or Fox or whatever their videos are boring Nobody wants to watch them.

00:53:29.000 They all have thumbs down and they get like 10,000 views if that And then you go to my channel, it's like my video's got like 300, 400,000 views, and I'm like, people are choosing my content when presented.

00:53:40.000 They're not choosing CBS, ABC, NBC, et cetera.

00:53:44.000 But because YouTube is propping these channels up, they're getting hundreds of millions of views.

00:53:48.000 You know how much money that is?

00:53:50.000 No.

00:53:51.000 Bonkers.

00:53:51.000 Lots of money.

00:53:52.000 Lots and lots of money.

00:53:54.000 Let me think real quick.

00:53:55.000 Let's see, I think CNN is probably getting probably a million bucks a month, low estimate.

00:54:02.000 From YouTube alone.

00:54:04.000 And that's off taking clips from their shows and just uploading them without question.

00:54:08.000 Without even trying to engage with YouTube.

00:54:09.000 And because YouTube is putting them up.

00:54:12.000 Think about how much money YouTube would actually make if they chose to show real independent creators that actually get the engagement.

00:54:19.000 They don't care though.

00:54:20.000 Because they're scared of these media outlets.

00:54:23.000 They're scared of people at BuzzFeed.

00:54:27.000 And yes, I'll give Ryan Broderick the credit.

00:54:29.000 They're scared of people like Ryan Broderick.

00:54:32.000 This dude who... I'm not sure if I've ever met him, but he really has this thing for no matter what happens...

00:54:41.000 He's got to call it a problem.

00:54:43.000 Okay.

00:54:43.000 Check this out.

00:54:45.000 You may have seen Plandemic.

00:54:47.000 I'm not a big fan.

00:54:47.000 I'm not a big fan because I think it's an interview with one person who may or may not be correct.

00:54:53.000 I understand she's a doctor, so I can only defer to the experts.

00:54:56.000 But there's a lot of things they could have done better.

00:54:58.000 And, you know, hey, it is what it is.

00:55:00.000 But YouTube shouldn't have removed it because they took away any opportunity for debate and challenging of the idea.

00:55:06.000 It's the stupidest thing they could have done.

00:55:08.000 Check this out.

00:55:09.000 Let me show you the Casey Newton tweet first.

00:55:11.000 He says, I wrote about how Plandemic went viral.

00:55:14.000 Facebook groups linking to YouTube driving tremendous attention in a short amount of

00:55:18.000 time.

00:55:19.000 And, that's just literally the internet.

00:55:23.000 What's the issue?

00:55:24.000 Check it out.

00:55:25.000 Ryan says, YouTube knows this is a problem.

00:55:30.000 In April, I reached out about the absurd traffic that YouTube videos were getting on Facebook, particularly in groups.

00:55:36.000 They told me, the video was not recommended by our systems.

00:55:39.000 The majority of the traffic and views come from external sites.

00:55:42.000 A problem?

00:55:44.000 Wow.

00:55:44.000 What problem?

00:55:45.000 That someone can share a link?

00:55:48.000 Last May, last year, YouTube changed the algorithm to strike down channels like mine.

00:55:53.000 It used to be that if you watched one of my videos, the autoplay recommendation would show you more of my videos.

00:55:59.000 So all of these, I'll do air quotes, I'll just call them activists, got angry.

00:56:03.000 Oh no, we're so angry because people with opinions we don't like are getting traffic and we work for BuzzFeed.

00:56:09.000 So YouTube changes the algorithm.

00:56:10.000 Okay.

00:56:11.000 Here's what I did.

00:56:12.000 I started saying at the beginning of all my videos, if you want to support my work, the best thing you can do is share this video.

00:56:17.000 Because the YouTube algorithm is weighted against me, but there's nothing more powerful than a direct share.

00:56:22.000 We can go ahead and take this time to say, go ahead and share this video.

00:56:26.000 Share this video.

00:56:27.000 Tell everyone how awesome we are.

00:56:29.000 Word of mouth, baby.

00:56:30.000 Please continue, Tim.

00:56:31.000 But in all seriousness, Look at what he's saying.

00:56:33.000 This is a guy from BuzzFeed.

00:56:35.000 He writes these hit pieces.

00:56:36.000 He's been wrong on several occasions, and he's literally angry right now that people on Facebook have shared links.

00:56:42.000 What's the alternative?

00:56:43.000 Let's say YouTube says, okay, we've decided we're going to outright ban everybody.

00:56:48.000 What?

00:56:49.000 So that YouTube just becomes Netflix?

00:56:51.000 So the only people who can post is Netflix?

00:56:55.000 Think about what he's saying right here.

00:56:56.000 YouTube knows this is a problem.

00:56:58.000 What?

00:56:58.000 That users can upload videos and share the link?

00:57:02.000 Isn't that what YouTube's for?

00:57:04.000 Yeah, it's literally what it's for.

00:57:05.000 Oh man.

00:57:05.000 what it's for. Supposed to be. Oh man. But here it's unsurprising that this is what you know

00:57:11.000 BuzzFeed focuses on. He goes on to say since the pandemic started I've written several stories

00:57:16.000 focusing on the explosion of Facebook users sharing YouTube links. What? Excuse me? This

00:57:22.000 is literally how it used to be. When you When YouTube first started, people would go on Facebook and they would share links.

00:57:30.000 Facebook got mad because it was driving traffic off of their site.

00:57:33.000 So Facebook started reducing the amount that YouTube links would appear.

00:57:37.000 It's countered now because people make groups.

00:57:39.000 And so when you're in a group, the post appears to the people in the group.

00:57:42.000 He's mad.

00:57:43.000 He's mad about it.

00:57:44.000 Haha. Short thread. YouTube's attempts to clean up their platform have not stopped and may even, uh,

00:57:50.000 attempts to clean up and may even be exacerbating the Facebook, uh, exacerbating the Facebook

00:57:55.000 sharing. The search results for COVID content are cleaned up, but on Facebook, things are

00:57:59.000 complete free for all. And.

00:58:02.000 We can't control it!

00:58:04.000 What do we do?

00:58:04.000 We're losing our power!

00:58:05.000 People on the internet are talking!

00:58:07.000 Oh no!

00:58:08.000 This is amazing.

00:58:10.000 This second, largely unmoderated YouTube via Facebook is especially bad in India, where some of the most watched COVID-19 videos in the world are in Hindi and full of misinformation.

00:58:22.000 I don't disagree that disinformation is bad.

00:58:25.000 It's a very big problem.

00:58:27.000 But guess what?

00:58:29.000 Let me ask you, what do you do if like, you know, Billy Bob walks down to the local watering hole and says, hey man, I heard that this thing was orchestrated.

00:58:38.000 And the other guy goes, wow.

00:58:39.000 Are you going to show up and be like, stop talking?

00:58:42.000 Are you going to write a newspaper article?

00:58:43.000 Dangerous things are happening where people...

00:58:45.000 are talking.

00:58:46.000 Apparently you are.

00:58:48.000 Whispers.

00:58:49.000 Sharing thoughts and ideas.

00:58:51.000 Oh no!

00:58:51.000 I see someone at Bud's feed saying it's full of misinformation and then I know what I know because I've been in this world now seeing the mainstream media spreading misinformation.

00:59:03.000 Yeah.

00:59:04.000 Like I'm on Twitter now and I follow people on both sides of the spectrum as far as like political and it's like both sides are just spouting Misinformation that just proves their own points, you know, and this happens, but one side is correct Yeah, and and it switches but doesn't switch

00:59:23.000 Yeah, you're right.

00:59:24.000 It's mostly on the right, yeah.

00:59:26.000 It's like this.

00:59:27.000 Well, I mean, there are some environmental things that people on the left are saying that is from truth.

00:59:34.000 But that's not an issue of reality.

00:59:35.000 That's an issue of opinion.

00:59:37.000 Right.

00:59:37.000 OK, well, that's what I'm talking about, those kind of things.

00:59:39.000 So you can say something like, I do not like Donald Trump removing environmental protections.

00:59:43.000 Right, that was one of my things.

00:59:44.000 And then a conservative will say, I do like it, it's good for business.

00:59:46.000 And you'll say, I don't think so, I think it's bad for everybody, blah blah blah.

00:59:49.000 It's an argument, that's fine.

00:59:50.000 But three, four, five years of Russia, Jussie Smollett, Covington, these are really high profile examples of how the media just gets everything wrong.

00:59:59.000 No, I 100% agree that it's mostly a one-sided thing right now.

01:00:04.000 So the easiest way to explain it is, You do have fake news on the right, the 5G conspiracy stuff.

01:00:10.000 It's not fair to call that right-wing, to be honest.

01:00:12.000 Yeah, I was going to say, isn't that just like random nuts everywhere?

01:00:14.000 Right, because, you know, Karen on Facebook saying something like, you know, the towers are coming for us, it's nothing to do with the right, you know what I mean?

01:00:27.000 Or the left, yeah, it doesn't matter.

01:00:29.000 Yeah, and there are a lot of left-wing crazy conspiracy theories, and recently Chris Hayes of MSNBC in an interview said they're They're out of their gourds, right?

01:00:38.000 So conspiracies happen, but I'll tell you what.

01:00:40.000 I can't give you the exact number, but it's something like this.

01:00:43.000 6 out of 10 stories that come from the right are correct.

01:00:46.000 4 out of 10 stories that come from the left are correct.

01:00:49.000 And so if you're on the left, you have a tendency to be wrong.

01:00:51.000 If you're on the right, you have a tendency to be right.

01:00:53.000 But I'm not saying political right or left.

01:00:54.000 I'm saying culture war, right and left.

01:00:56.000 And that's because a lot of moderate and independents are now somehow aligned with the right, simply because there's issues of freedom and free speech and free thought.

01:01:05.000 Yeah.

01:01:05.000 You look at, like, Ben Shapiro, who's, like, the joke about Ben Shapiro is, debate me!

01:01:10.000 You know what I mean?

01:01:11.000 Yeah.

01:01:11.000 Like, he wants to have the ideas challenged.

01:01:13.000 He wants it down.

01:01:13.000 Yeah.

01:01:14.000 And the left is, shut them down.

01:01:16.000 Cancel their show.

01:01:17.000 Cancel their speech.

01:01:17.000 Yeah.

01:01:18.000 We don't want to debate.

01:01:19.000 We don't want to get in an opportunity where you can just prove us wrong.

01:01:22.000 Exactly.

01:01:23.000 And so that creates this kind of dynamic.

01:01:24.000 And that's exactly what we're seeing right now with BuzzFeed.

01:01:27.000 Yeah.

01:01:27.000 Let's read a little bit more.

01:01:29.000 He says, That's definitely true about whether it looks good or not.

01:01:31.000 YouTube videos has also mirrored the rise in conspiracy theories.

01:01:35.000 The 5G Truth or Facebook groups are full of YouTube links that they share with each other

01:01:38.000 because the videos look more legitimate than native Facebook content.

01:01:42.000 That's definitely true about whether it looks good or not.

01:01:44.000 Facebook content is garbage.

01:01:46.000 And the video that I got YouTube to comment on was the one that claimed Dr. Fauci is a

01:01:50.000 member of the deep state.

01:01:51.000 The video was viewed over six million times.

01:01:53.000 Its biggest referrals were a QAnon Facebook group, a Christian mommy bloggers page, and a chiropractor.

01:01:59.000 Random.

01:02:00.000 The Deep State is a specific colloquial reference to members of what they call the permanent government.

01:02:07.000 And this is actually what someone in the intelligence community called it.

01:02:09.000 These are people who are holdovers, right?

01:02:11.000 Yeah.

01:02:12.000 So George W. Bush will be like, I'm going to appoint this guy to the FBI.

01:02:15.000 And then Obama comes in and the guy stays.

01:02:17.000 And then Trump comes in and the guy stays.

01:02:19.000 That's what people refer to as deep state.

01:02:21.000 People who have been in government and aren't elected were appointed and just stay.

01:02:26.000 Oh, aren't elected.

01:02:27.000 Right.

01:02:27.000 Okay.

01:02:28.000 So if someone said Dr. Fauci is a member of the Deep State, I'm like, that's just a colloquial way to explain that Dr. Fauci has been in government, in this position, for decades.

01:02:36.000 Yeah.

01:02:37.000 That he wasn't elected, he wasn't changed, and that's a big aspect of our government.

01:02:41.000 Yeah, it's not sinister.

01:02:42.000 Yeah, right.

01:02:43.000 But, you know, look, because conspiracy theorists might use similar terminology, it's like, ooh, what do we do?

01:02:48.000 Yeah.

01:02:49.000 YouTube knows Facebook users are sharing YouTube videos at a higher rate.

01:02:53.000 And you can see the traffic increase on social metrics sites like BuzzSumo and CrowdTangle, which means Facebook knows this too.

01:02:59.000 But each platform is expecting the other one to moderate this.

01:03:02.000 It's a mess.

01:03:04.000 What do you want to happen on the internet with the internet?

01:03:07.000 I don't get it.

01:03:07.000 What is he expecting?

01:03:09.000 I don't know.

01:03:10.000 It's so silly sounding.

01:03:11.000 Facebook is like, it's a YouTube link.

01:03:14.000 So Facebook already censors a lot of content.

01:03:17.000 YouTube already took down tons of these videos.

01:03:20.000 You know what's going to happen?

01:03:21.000 Someone's going to post it to LiveLeak or BitChute and then they'll post it to Facebook.

01:03:26.000 You can't stop this.

01:03:27.000 It's a core function of what the internet is.

01:03:30.000 Hey, sorry, we're connected in the internet.

01:03:34.000 You can't stop us.

01:03:35.000 We're going to stay connected now.

01:03:37.000 Imagine when are they going to get that?

01:03:39.000 It feels like they want to go back to like the nineties.

01:03:42.000 Kind of, you know, when people were just like, Oh, what's the internet dial up?

01:03:46.000 What's that?

01:03:47.000 but i i think i read the newspaper i think i think it's more in line with

01:03:50.000 trump derangement syndrome okay like so outside of what trump derangement syndrome is

01:03:55.000 focused on trump there's a general effect so people who no matter what it is

01:03:59.000 always wrong it's always that it must be stopped

01:04:02.000 so at first they're like you know alex jones on youtube any saying things we

01:04:06.000 Yeah.

01:04:07.000 So then YouTube gets rid of him.

01:04:08.000 Yeah.

01:04:08.000 Okay, well, we still have to be mad about something, so people are sharing links on Facebook!

01:04:14.000 That's crazy.

01:04:15.000 No!

01:04:15.000 Yeah, it's crazy.

01:04:16.000 Wow, someone shared a link.

01:04:18.000 BuzzFeed, how do you think you make money?

01:04:21.000 What a good question, Tim.

01:04:22.000 People take the links.

01:04:24.000 Well, they don't make money from me, that's for sure.

01:04:26.000 Right.

01:04:26.000 I don't go to BuzzFeed.

01:04:28.000 Websites like BuzzFeed, like Vox, like Mike.com, which is like mostly defunct.

01:04:34.000 Got started by manipulating Facebook's algorithm, because people would share the stories.

01:04:38.000 We've heard about this before.

01:04:41.000 Some of these sites used to be right-wing libertarian, because police brutality videos were very, very popular for a long time.

01:04:48.000 So the approach was, if you were all about liberty, you could play to the left and the right.

01:04:55.000 Most Americans detest racism, so it wasn't a left or right issue.

01:05:00.000 So all of these sites first started out kind of like on a libertarian bent, but then they started figuring out that it's older women who share the most.

01:05:07.000 So their content slowly started skewing towards moms. 0.99

01:05:11.000 Do you want me to say it?

01:05:12.000 What?

01:05:12.000 Karens?

01:05:12.000 Yes.

01:05:13.000 Karens.

01:05:13.000 Yes.

01:05:13.000 100%.

01:05:14.000 You were thinking it.

01:05:14.000 I was thinking it too.

01:05:15.000 To Karens.

01:05:15.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:05:16.000 That's absolutely it.

01:05:17.000 Yep.

01:05:17.000 And so then, more shares, more money.

01:05:20.000 So they started hiring people to write these things, and thus we got the wave of critical race theory, social justice stuff, because Facebook was being exploited.

01:05:28.000 Here's the funny thing.

01:05:30.000 Did I complain about people's ability to share links?

01:05:33.000 I think it's a serious problem that Facebook drove this.

01:05:37.000 He is.

01:05:38.000 Imagine a zombie complaining about zombies.

01:05:41.000 You have complained about YouTube quite often on our show.

01:05:47.000 For right reasons.

01:05:49.000 I've defended YouTube against the lies that YouTube radicalizes people.

01:05:52.000 It's not true.

01:05:53.000 I've complained about YouTube censoring in favor of these people.

01:05:56.000 And pushing CNN and squashing you down.

01:06:00.000 I'm not saying you're not justified.

01:06:03.000 I'm not talking about them complaining about their problem.

01:06:07.000 I'm talking about they were propped up, and now they're mad other people are taking advantage of the same system.

01:06:12.000 Oh, BuzzFeed was propped up for a while?

01:06:14.000 Yes, they manipulated the Facebook algorithm.

01:06:17.000 Well, okay, I should say sites like BuzzFeed, Huffington Post, this is what they were doing.

01:06:23.000 He's mad, or I should say he's the remnant of, oh no, we're being displaced.

01:06:28.000 The system we were exploiting is taking away from us.

01:06:31.000 Right.

01:06:31.000 That's what it sounds like.

01:06:33.000 Now, you could argue there's some overlap between my complaints with YouTube propping up mainstream media, but it's kind of an inversion.

01:06:41.000 CNN doesn't produce content that people actually want to see and engage with, and they actually produce lies.

01:06:48.000 So he's arguing that people are producing fake news.

01:06:50.000 It's like, bro, this guy's written several fake stories and got called out for it.

01:06:52.000 This guy?

01:06:53.000 Yeah.

01:06:53.000 This guy specifically.

01:06:56.000 He's crying.

01:06:57.000 It just sounds like he's just crying and whining about it.

01:07:00.000 So it's like this whole zombie system they function on was pushing shock content that was outrage and generate shares.

01:07:08.000 I've explained this before.

01:07:10.000 YouTube doesn't generate shares the way Facebook does.

01:07:12.000 On Facebook, when a link pops up and it says, you know, dog does backflip.

01:07:17.000 Yeah.

01:07:17.000 Yeah, no one does that.

01:07:18.000 Maybe, I don't know.

01:07:19.000 and all of a sudden that pops up in the feeds of all their friends.

01:07:21.000 YouTube doesn't have that function.

01:07:23.000 If you click so you can like a video and then if people go to your YouTube page,

01:07:29.000 they might see it.

01:07:29.000 But nobody does that.

01:07:30.000 Yeah, no one does that.

01:07:31.000 So maybe, I don't know.

01:07:33.000 Some people might do it.

01:07:34.000 Facebook.

01:07:34.000 So I'll clarify.

01:07:37.000 There is a slight possibility of radicalization through YouTube, but I would argue that it's relatively negligible.

01:07:44.000 Okay.

01:07:44.000 More so than without YouTube, but not noticeable because there have been several studies showing that on YouTube, you have to choose what you watch.

01:07:52.000 Yeah.

01:07:53.000 Facebook is different.

01:07:54.000 Facebook, you get like three posts you can see on your monitor.

01:07:57.000 Right.

01:07:58.000 And so when people go on and they see a video of a cop beating somebody, they click share.

01:08:02.000 All of a sudden, everyone just sees it, whether they've chosen it or not.

01:08:05.000 So that allows this radicalization to propagate extremely rapidly.

01:08:09.000 Then these companies that have made money off exploiting the system get scared that people like me on YouTube call them out.

01:08:16.000 So they accuse us of what they do.

01:08:18.000 It's projection.

01:08:20.000 And you know what the problem is?

01:08:22.000 When you get people like me that are willing to be honest about it and not lie and cheat, we're at a severe disadvantage.

01:08:30.000 Because BuzzFeed lies all the time.

01:08:32.000 They make up fake news.

01:08:33.000 But because they have venture capital and institutional power, they can write fake news about me, and then all of a sudden I get all of these... They circle the wagons around each other.

01:08:42.000 They defend their venture capital interests.

01:08:44.000 None of these people want to lose money.

01:08:46.000 So we're the bigger threat because we're independent individuals.

01:08:49.000 Taking their views away.

01:08:50.000 Going up against the machine.

01:08:51.000 So the machine will protect itself.

01:08:53.000 And they do it to everybody.

01:08:55.000 And the funniest example, I guess, is the President of the United States.

01:08:59.000 Someone who is one of the most powerful people in the world.

01:09:02.000 But they do it to him too.

01:09:03.000 Because it's the same thing.

01:09:05.000 He wasn't supposed to be President.

01:09:07.000 He's basically taken the power.

01:09:09.000 So they're panicking and trying to stop him and crush him in any way possible.

01:09:11.000 They are circling the wagons.

01:09:13.000 That's the name of the game, man.

01:09:14.000 Wow.

01:09:14.000 You know what's really funny about BuzzFeed?

01:09:16.000 Ben Smith... I don't care.

01:09:18.000 Hold on, that's good.

01:09:21.000 The editor-in-chief of BuzzFeed News, and BuzzFeed was pumping out all this crazy crap, and I'm like, man, because I've known Ben for a little while, it's not like I've known him very well, and I'm like, why is this happening?

01:09:33.000 I thought Ben was better than this.

01:09:34.000 Yeah.

01:09:35.000 Ben quits.

01:09:36.000 He goes to the New York Times.

01:09:38.000 And now he's writing some of the best stuff ever.

01:09:40.000 Calling out Joe Biden.

01:09:41.000 Yeah.

01:09:42.000 He couldn't stand what was going on.

01:09:43.000 Maybe.

01:09:45.000 Clearly.

01:09:46.000 He had a mandate.

01:09:47.000 Yeah.

01:09:47.000 But now he's at the New York Times.

01:09:49.000 Yeah, but you're your own boss.

01:09:52.000 You still left.

01:09:53.000 Right, right, right.

01:09:54.000 But he's not.

01:09:55.000 You'd think even the New York Times would be more compromised, but he's got presumably more freedom.

01:09:59.000 That's cool.

01:10:00.000 What's his name?

01:10:01.000 Ben Smith.

01:10:02.000 Ben Smith. Yeah. And it's like finally some of the New York Times now calling out a lot of what we

01:10:08.000 all see. Nice. And it's great. Like notably he called out the Joe Biden defense from the New

01:10:13.000 York Times. Yeah. Like we questioned it. Okay. He also called out CNN for faking the Chris Cuomo

01:10:18.000 quarantine thing. That's amazing.

01:10:20.000 And I was like, wow.

01:10:21.000 That whole thing is hilarious.

01:10:22.000 Yeah.

01:10:22.000 Bravo.

01:10:23.000 And I tweeted this too.

01:10:24.000 And this is a big for me.

01:10:26.000 I was like, I almost forgot what real journalism looked like.

01:10:28.000 I know, right?

01:10:29.000 And then, you know, he's like, hey, CNN.

01:10:32.000 He said CNN was alighting the Cuomo controversy because Cuomo comes out of his basement like, look, I'm not quarantined anymore.

01:10:38.000 That video is so stupid.

01:10:40.000 So stilted.

01:10:42.000 Oh, man.

01:10:43.000 You were caught.

01:10:45.000 You were caught like 30 minutes from your house, bro.

01:10:47.000 But he tweeted about it and I was like, wow.

01:10:50.000 That's great!

01:10:50.000 New York Times, because they got a lot of bad people over there, man.

01:10:54.000 Yeah, but the New York Times is not the worst.

01:10:56.000 I'd give them like a 6 out of 10.

01:10:58.000 And they do a lot of good factual reporting.

01:11:01.000 Like, they're one of the best.

01:11:02.000 The AP, I think, is the best.

01:11:04.000 The AP and PBS do a really, really good job.

01:11:07.000 The problem with the New York Times is that, editorially, they aren't in the bag for Democrats.

01:11:11.000 That means when critical political stories pop up, you can't trust what they write.

01:11:15.000 When certain tech stories pop up, you can a little bit, but they're also extremely biased against Google because they

01:11:22.000 think they deserve Google's money.

01:11:24.000 They're like, Google has displaced news, therefore Google should pay us.

01:11:27.000 There's actually in, I'm not sure if it's in France or whatever, there's a suit where, there's an issue. Google

01:11:33.000 crawls a news story, right?

01:11:36.000 Okay.

01:11:37.000 And then if you Google search, there will be a box that appears that gives you the gist of the news story.

01:11:41.000 So what happens is, the New York Times will write a story, Google will take the information, and it'll appear on Google.com, where they sell ads.

01:11:50.000 And then when you see that, you're like, wow, Donald Trump did a backflip, moving on.

01:11:53.000 Whereas in the past, you had to go to the New York Times to get the news, Google is infringing on their market.

01:11:59.000 So you gotta be careful about those biases.

01:12:01.000 You know, there we go.

01:12:02.000 At the same time, you know, Facebook is training its AI to censor hateful memes.

01:12:06.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:12:07.000 You know what, man?

01:12:07.000 How dare you?

01:12:08.000 My memes!

01:12:09.000 I think... I said this ten, uh, about ten years ago.

01:12:14.000 Ten years ago, we were in, like, the John Dillinger era of bank robbers.

01:12:17.000 Okay.

01:12:18.000 You know, it was like, the bank robbers happened all over the place, and the gangsters were there, and they were, like, anti-heroes almost.

01:12:23.000 Some of them were really villains.

01:12:24.000 And we had all these hackers doing this hacker stuff.

01:12:27.000 And I was like, this is that age because they're going to lock this down.

01:12:31.000 Everything's going to become rigid, authoritarian, and we can see it happening in real time.

01:12:35.000 So my prediction would be in 10 years, there's going to be like three websites.

01:12:39.000 Okay.

01:12:40.000 Um, and you're going to have your page, like, you know, like your, your information for your website will just be a Facebook page.

01:12:47.000 Facebook, Amazon, and Google.

01:12:49.000 Yep.

01:12:50.000 Well, what would Google do?

01:12:52.000 Give you any information you ask it.

01:12:54.000 People are gonna have all their information on some social profile.

01:12:57.000 No, they're gonna have Neuralink.

01:12:59.000 What's the, what's this times this?

01:13:01.000 I already know the answer.

01:13:02.000 Boom.

01:13:02.000 Neuralink.

01:13:04.000 Yeah, but I'm talking about websites and how we interact with the internet.

01:13:07.000 But that's what I'm saying.

01:13:09.000 It won't be the same.

01:13:11.000 We're going to have like, think what Neuralink does.

01:13:14.000 And that's just the base level.

01:13:15.000 Imagine like 30 years afterwards, like we're going to think in some information.

01:13:19.000 What kind of information do I need right now?

01:13:22.000 Now I know all the information.

01:13:22.000 It's like the matrix.

01:13:24.000 How do I fly the helicopter?

01:13:26.000 Now I know how to fly it.

01:13:27.000 In 10 years, I doubt it.

01:13:28.000 Well, no, no, I'm not saying in 10 years.

01:13:30.000 I'm saying once Neuralink becomes a normal thing, and then think 10, 30 years after that, you know?

01:13:37.000 I'm not convinced.

01:13:37.000 10 or 15 years ago, they were talking about those RFID chips you can get under your skin, and people were getting them, and they'd wave their hand in front of a door, and the door would open, and people still don't get them.

01:13:50.000 It's like, I remember Alex Jones was like, they're getting the chips, Verichips coming, and then it never did.

01:13:54.000 Because, you get a phone.

01:13:56.000 I go to my hotel, I wiggle my phone in front of the door, the door opens.

01:13:59.000 We don't need implants in that capacity.

01:14:02.000 I think Neuralink, maybe, but the issue is, humans have a really difficult time implanting things.

01:14:11.000 Some people do it.

01:14:12.000 Most people won't do it.

01:14:14.000 Did you know that you can give yourself electro sense?

01:14:17.000 Um, or whatever, whatever it's called, um, electro perception.

01:14:20.000 I'm not sure what it's, what's called.

01:14:21.000 No, what is it?

01:14:23.000 You can take a neodymium magnet and embed it in your fingertips.

01:14:25.000 Okay.

01:14:26.000 And then you can feel electrical waves.

01:14:28.000 Very interesting.

01:14:28.000 It gives you the ability to detect electrical and EMF electromagnetic fields.

01:14:33.000 But for what purpose though?

01:14:34.000 To stay away from it?

01:14:35.000 It's an extra sense, bro.

01:14:36.000 You could put your hand on a wall and feel where the, where the power cables are.

01:14:40.000 Interesting.

01:14:41.000 Yeah, it's like a platypus or an echidna.

01:14:43.000 That colorblind guy that implanted this thing that he can smell colors now.

01:14:48.000 What?

01:14:49.000 You ever see this?

01:14:49.000 No.

01:14:50.000 He actually has an implant that comes out like a little alien device that's connected to his brain and he can like smell colors or something.

01:14:58.000 That's weird.

01:14:59.000 Wouldn't you want the ability to sense electrical fields?

01:15:03.000 Might be useful.

01:15:04.000 It's interesting.

01:15:05.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:15:06.000 It is an interesting thought.

01:15:08.000 If you're looking to mount stuff in walls or you're looking for where the line is coming in, you just hold your hand over and you're like, oh, there's the power cable.

01:15:14.000 And then you know exactly where it is.

01:15:15.000 Or you can tell if a wire is live or not.

01:15:17.000 You'll be like, whoa, that's live.

01:15:19.000 I can't touch it.

01:15:20.000 So a lot of people have done this because it's really cool.

01:15:24.000 You can feel like you'll put your hand and be like, wow.

01:15:27.000 Like, it's a sense, something you've never experienced before.

01:15:29.000 I'm curious as to what the perception is.

01:15:32.000 So the way it works is that your fingertips are very sensitive, and so putting a magnet under the skin, when the magnet comes in contact with the wave, it starts putting pressure and vibrating a little bit, and it puts pressure on your nerve.

01:15:46.000 So what I've read, and I've never done it, I know some people who have, is that it's not like touch.

01:15:52.000 It's something different.

01:15:52.000 It's like you can feel electricity.

01:15:54.000 It's weird.

01:15:55.000 Interesting.

01:15:56.000 So people know this, they don't do it.

01:15:58.000 So you said that most people have a problem with implants.

01:16:01.000 Have you seen that Black Mirror episode where they have the contacts that record your entire life and they can go back to any and watch anything?

01:16:09.000 Wouldn't that be like the computer of the future then or the cell phone of the future?

01:16:13.000 I don't think so.

01:16:14.000 No.

01:16:14.000 No, because it's hard to use.

01:16:15.000 It's not an implant.

01:16:16.000 They just pop it in and like, I don't know, they figure it out so that it allows oxygen to flow through so you don't have to take it out.

01:16:23.000 You just leave it in and you just have your cell phone just in your eyeball.

01:16:28.000 So right now, contact lenses have the problem of permeability.

01:16:31.000 Right.

01:16:31.000 So that's why you gotta take them out.

01:16:32.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:16:33.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:16:33.000 So for those that aren't familiar with... It cuts the oxygen off from your eyeball.

01:16:35.000 Yeah.

01:16:36.000 For those that aren't familiar with lenses, the capillaries can grow over your eyes because your eyes are struggling to get oxygen to, you know.

01:16:42.000 So... They need to breathe!

01:16:43.000 Yeah, your eyes gotta breathe.

01:16:45.000 Maybe... They do.

01:16:45.000 Maybe... Odd thing, but... There's a way they can do it that it's like... But, you know, for now... I know we're talking about what the argument is in the future.

01:16:54.000 For now, it's like, yeah, we'd have to solve that problem.

01:16:55.000 Let's say we did.

01:16:57.000 I wonder if it's still just a hassle.

01:17:00.000 I got my phone right here, dude.

01:17:02.000 You know what's really funny?

01:17:03.000 You know in Futurama when Leela's wearing the wristband with the screen on it?

01:17:10.000 And there's also a video game called Commander Keen.

01:17:12.000 You know Commander Keen?

01:17:13.000 He wore a wrist computer as well.

01:17:15.000 Sure. I remember when I was little I was like, man, that's the future.

01:17:18.000 Brisk computers.

01:17:19.000 And then I got a phone and I'm like, no one is ever going to put that on their wrist.

01:17:22.000 That makes no sense.

01:17:23.000 But think about what a contact phone would give you the ability to.

01:17:28.000 Number one, you'd probably be able to just think.

01:17:30.000 They're already doing this where you can think things and text comes up or whatever.

01:17:34.000 You tell it whatever.

01:17:36.000 So if you had it in your eyeball, you can watch whatever you want to watch.

01:17:41.000 You know, it's just there.

01:17:42.000 It projects it.

01:17:44.000 Where to do that?

01:17:45.000 Boom.

01:17:46.000 3D.

01:17:47.000 Virtual reality.

01:17:48.000 Like you were saying, like, man, if Neuralink, I just plug into... Oh, we're done working.

01:17:52.000 Skyrim.

01:17:52.000 Boom.

01:17:53.000 And you're playing Skyrim, you know?

01:17:54.000 But if you have contacts that actually you are actually seeing... Oh, I don't know.

01:17:59.000 Who knows?

01:17:59.000 I don't know. I'm just great sense of touch interact with your brain who knows so the the neural link has very very

01:18:04.000 fine wires that they have to find a human hair right so 0.59

01:18:08.000 Maybe in the future what one of the challenges rejection I'm sure Elon Musk is smart enough to know this better than I do, so I'll defer to him.

01:18:16.000 Sure.

01:18:17.000 But what do we do, like when you're one, they put the Neuralink implant and you get like a port on your neck and you can like plug in?

01:18:23.000 A USB port?

01:18:24.000 Or it could be wireless.

01:18:26.000 It's like a Wi-Fi.

01:18:27.000 That's what I would assume.

01:18:29.000 Wi-Fi antennas are tiny, but what powers it?

01:18:32.000 Theoretically, aren't we electrical beings?

01:18:35.000 Like, don't we have, I mean, couldn't we figure out a way that we power it?

01:18:38.000 The radio waves themselves might be able to give it enough power to transmit signals, because signals are particularly weak relative to, like, an actual electronic device.

01:18:46.000 Okay.

01:18:47.000 Maybe it's that simple, you know?

01:18:51.000 I don't know.

01:18:52.000 Yeah, who knows?

01:18:53.000 We've entertained the idea of implants.

01:18:54.000 Maybe the problem is their use factor wasn't enough.

01:18:58.000 Like the RFID chips opening a door.

01:19:00.000 Who cares?

01:19:01.000 Yeah, who cares?

01:19:01.000 It's not worth getting this thing.

01:19:02.000 And they have this big needle.

01:19:03.000 They put it in and then they deposit it.

01:19:05.000 It was silly.

01:19:07.000 But Neuralink would be substantially more beneficial.

01:19:10.000 You know what I think it might be, actually?

01:19:13.000 They're talking about people who have spinal injuries.

01:19:17.000 Okay.

01:19:18.000 We might see this start where someone who's paraplegic gets the implant and then they get an electrode at the other part of the spine after the break.

01:19:25.000 Nice.

01:19:26.000 So the signal can jump wirelessly.

01:19:28.000 Dope.

01:19:28.000 I never even thought about that.

01:19:30.000 That's great.

01:19:30.000 And then they're healed.

01:19:31.000 They can get up and walk around like normal.

01:19:33.000 Dope.

01:19:33.000 We'll have to relearn probably.

01:19:35.000 Yeah.

01:19:35.000 But then the signal can travel because we've created, you know, this jump.

01:19:38.000 A part of me thinks that he is doing this because he's afraid of AI and wants to figure out a way to make us Hasn't he said that?

01:19:46.000 Part of AI?

01:19:47.000 He said that.

01:19:48.000 Oh, he has said that.

01:19:48.000 I'm pretty sure he said that, right?

01:19:49.000 Yeah, I think he said that.

01:19:49.000 I don't know if he said exactly that.

01:19:51.000 He said it on Joe Rogan the first time, I thought.

01:19:53.000 What, that he wants to make us part of AI?

01:19:55.000 He doesn't think AI is good.

01:19:57.000 If we're integrated with it.

01:19:58.000 No, I know he's afraid of AI, but it's like, Neuralink makes us part of it.

01:20:03.000 I'm pretty sure that's his argument.

01:20:04.000 Oh, cool.

01:20:04.000 Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what he said.

01:20:06.000 I didn't see his Joe Rogan article.

01:20:08.000 If we're integrated with it, there's no war.

01:20:10.000 There's no Terminator scenario if we are with the AI as one.

01:20:13.000 If we are the AI.

01:20:14.000 Interesting.

01:20:15.000 Yeah.

01:20:15.000 Scary.

01:20:16.000 I don't know, man.

01:20:18.000 I mean, I guess it would kind of be good.

01:20:20.000 You're talking, you know, you're, you're, you're talking like in the early stages, you're at Thanksgiving with your family and you've got that one really dumb uncle or whatever.

01:20:27.000 Okay.

01:20:27.000 And he's like, I don't know about that.

01:20:29.000 And it's like, check.

01:20:29.000 And he goes, wow, you were right.

01:20:31.000 Hmm.

01:20:33.000 Yeah.

01:20:34.000 Or it's like no arguments ever again.

01:20:36.000 And that's what the future of the internet is.

01:20:38.000 Go ahead and check.

01:20:39.000 There would still be opinions though.

01:20:41.000 I just checked.

01:20:41.000 I just checked all that facts, all the facts on that.

01:20:43.000 But opinions wouldn't change based on that because that's about your... You're right.

01:20:46.000 You're right.

01:20:47.000 The opinions wouldn't change.

01:20:48.000 Right.

01:20:48.000 There would still be ideas out there.

01:20:50.000 Well, you're right that Donald Trump did say that, but I don't think it's a big deal.

01:20:53.000 And then they would argue, what do you mean you don't think it's a big deal?

01:20:55.000 Of course it's a big deal.

01:20:55.000 Yeah, that's your perspective.

01:20:57.000 Yep.

01:20:57.000 Yeah.

01:20:57.000 And that wouldn't change.

01:20:58.000 Based on how you grew up or whatever.

01:20:59.000 But at least we'd have the facts together.

01:21:01.000 Yeah.

01:21:01.000 So when you say something like, Obamagate!

01:21:03.000 And they go, that's a debunked conspiracy theory.

01:21:06.000 You're like, nope.

01:21:06.000 Like, no it's not.

01:21:07.000 But look, let's be honest, man.

01:21:09.000 We can pull up on our phones.

01:21:10.000 Yeah.

01:21:11.000 People still don't want to do it.

01:21:12.000 That's true.

01:21:13.000 Yeah.

01:21:13.000 You know what I do a lot when people are like, when I'm talking to somebody and they're like arguing with me?

01:21:17.000 I'll just be like, I'll just pull up on my phone and I will say nothing.

01:21:20.000 And I'll be like, here you go.

01:21:21.000 And they'll be like, well, I don't know if I believe that.

01:21:23.000 I'm like, I don't care if you believe it or not, whatever.

01:21:25.000 I'm done.

01:21:25.000 If you're not going to believe it.

01:21:26.000 That's why they think it.

01:21:27.000 If sources don't work for you, then I don't know what the point of talking to you is.

01:21:29.000 Seriously.

01:21:30.000 Okay.

01:21:31.000 It is about that time.

01:21:33.000 Superchats!

01:21:35.000 Awesome!

01:21:43.000 Yes, please.

01:21:44.000 50,000 likes.

01:21:45.000 Likes really do help.

01:21:46.000 So if you are so inclined to smash that like button.

01:21:50.000 Tell everyone.

01:21:51.000 And follow me.

01:21:53.000 Yeah.

01:21:53.000 Follow Adam because you got to send him story ideas.

01:21:55.000 Yeah.

01:21:56.000 So that's the big, that's the big thing.

01:21:57.000 Yeah.

01:21:58.000 I always pin a tweet at the top of my page that you could just go and just put whatever.

01:22:02.000 A lot of times people are giving me stuff that we've already done or stuff that he has just done on his shows.

01:22:10.000 But that's fine.

01:22:10.000 That are kind of political.

01:22:11.000 No, don't stop though.

01:22:13.000 They're all fantastic.

01:22:14.000 Don't, don't stop.

01:22:15.000 Keep it coming.

01:22:16.000 Keep, even if you think that we've done it, send it our way.

01:22:19.000 It always helps.

01:22:20.000 Really appreciate it.

01:22:20.000 Thank you.

01:22:21.000 You guys are great. Let's read some super chats. This is your chance to get on the show everybody.

01:22:26.000 Thanks for hanging out. We love you guys.

01:22:28.000 King Canuck says, send at 8. Hope you guys cover something light tonight.

01:22:32.000 Tim, thought about transferring some of your trophies from your old sets walls to this one.

01:22:36.000 No, no, we actually we took them down.

01:22:39.000 Um, it's actually in the same space, but, uh, it's, it's a, it's a different, I don't know.

01:22:44.000 Different world.

01:22:45.000 One thing I do want to do is I want to get some, like, writing or some kind of art.

01:22:49.000 We've talked about guitars, maybe some, maybe some skateboards with arts on them, art on it or something.

01:22:53.000 Yeah, the problem is, this is, these are actually, I mean, we're in a completely new room, but these are still the same walls.

01:22:59.000 I actually built them on, um, another panel that, so they're, they're actually... They're removable.

01:23:05.000 There's six of them, five of them.

01:23:07.000 Yeah, so we could take these, move them around, switch them around if we want to, but they don't hold weight.

01:23:11.000 So we can't actually hang anything on them.

01:23:13.000 And the wood ones are really heavy.

01:23:14.000 They are really heavy, actually, yeah, because that's actually flooring.

01:23:17.000 Looks cool, though.

01:23:19.000 Yeah, came out, came out well.

01:23:20.000 Keep it clean.

01:23:21.000 Yeah, the way I had it designed before was kind of something I threw up in my room and didn't really make as much sense for like a... We're up in the production value.

01:23:29.000 But I do think we could use some kind of definition.

01:23:34.000 At least in some capacity.

01:23:35.000 Skateboard.

01:23:36.000 Art.

01:23:36.000 Something.

01:23:36.000 Maybe.

01:23:36.000 Maybe one day.

01:23:37.000 I like the guitar.

01:23:37.000 Maybe.

01:23:38.000 I already pre-ordered it.

01:23:38.000 I like the guitar mark G says be honest Tim You canceled last night's stream because you were too hyped

01:23:43.000 for the Tony Hawk pro skater one and two trailer that came out yesterday

01:23:46.000 I already pre-ordered it No yesterday was just like a brutal news day where the news

01:23:50.000 was like It was horrible.

01:23:53.000 I came down, I'm like, hey, you guys ready to get going on the, what are we going to talk about?

01:23:58.000 And they're like, my eyes were bloodshot, and I was like, what?

01:24:02.000 No.

01:24:03.000 Crawling was horrible.

01:24:05.000 No.

01:24:05.000 And then I crawled into the rejuvenation chamber and sealed it, filled up with biofluid, and I was floating for the next six hours.

01:24:11.000 And the new beanie came down.

01:24:12.000 All these connectors had like, and just like, tsh, tsh.

01:24:18.000 Gregory says, Adam has gone full Messiah.

01:24:21.000 Most certainly.

01:24:22.000 It's the hair, yes.

01:24:23.000 Is it the hair?

01:24:23.000 What do you guys think of my hair, huh?

01:24:26.000 Lovin' it, yeah.

01:24:27.000 No beanie needed.

01:24:29.000 IB Rippetum says, face it, extreme fartisanship is hurting America.

01:24:33.000 Well, you gotta stop drinkin' all that lactose, man.

01:24:37.000 Man, he'd be ripping them.

01:24:38.000 Yeah, man.

01:24:38.000 CNN needs to get... This is the problem.

01:24:40.000 Stefan Tirol says CNN calls Obamagate a conspiracy theory.

01:24:44.000 Meanwhile they unironically pelted Russiagate and consider Greta Thunberg an expert in the 1.00

01:24:47.000 coronavirus.

01:24:48.000 CNN needs to get, this is the problem.

01:24:52.000 CNN needs to go away.

01:24:54.000 But YouTube's propping them up.

01:24:56.000 Maybe YouTube needs to go away, too.

01:24:58.000 Can I set it under my breath?

01:24:59.000 Because that's our platform.

01:25:02.000 No, because other platforms exist, too.

01:25:04.000 The problem is that YouTube has strangled them out of the market.

01:25:06.000 Oh, okay.

01:25:07.000 That's a good point.

01:25:09.000 GM says, Hey Tim, been following since Timcast IRL began.

01:25:12.000 Love it.

01:25:13.000 Don't trust China.

01:25:13.000 China is a-hole.

01:25:15.000 That is a fact.

01:25:16.000 That's a great video.

01:25:17.000 Salon Blue says Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 and 2 remaster September 4th with original soundtrack for the most part.

01:25:22.000 Also, BuzzFeed is pulling back from politics after cuts.

01:25:25.000 Really?

01:25:26.000 Yeah, right.

01:25:27.000 I thought they had a bunch of cuts.

01:25:28.000 Sure they are.

01:25:29.000 But it's because they're going to do rage bait culture war crap. 0.87

01:25:31.000 And yell at the crowds.

01:25:32.000 And it seems like they're losing their hold on their fame or notoriety, you know?

01:25:39.000 BuzzFeed.

01:25:40.000 Well, Ben Smith quit.

01:25:41.000 Maybe that's what it is.

01:25:42.000 They're like, oh man.

01:25:44.000 Jumping ship.

01:25:45.000 Let's see.

01:25:45.000 Cordy says, to the tune of Bill Nye's intro, Tim Poole is a real cool dude.

01:25:49.000 Tim, Tim, Tim, Tim, Tim.

01:25:52.000 I could actually do the, Tim, Tim, like Bill Nye.

01:25:55.000 Yeah.

01:25:55.000 Why didn't you go for it?

01:25:56.000 Cause it was funnier that I read it monotone.

01:25:58.000 I was really looking forward to that.

01:26:00.000 Go on.

01:26:01.000 Eric says, what's your guys' feeling on reopening the economy?

01:26:04.000 I think we do it with social distancing.

01:26:06.000 We don't, we don't have, we don't have concerts.

01:26:07.000 We don't have conventions and I think we'll be fine.

01:26:09.000 We can be smart.

01:26:10.000 Yeah.

01:26:11.000 Yep.

01:26:13.000 Lambda Core says, my birthday was the 8th, and I haven't been up to watch the streams and superchat this.

01:26:19.000 And I haven't been.

01:26:21.000 Hope everyone is doing well.

01:26:22.000 Stay safe, everyone.

01:26:23.000 Absolutely.

01:26:24.000 Appreciate it.

01:26:25.000 Artemis Fowl says, Tim Pool, I believe you need to rein in your bias when it comes to the Arbery shooting case.

01:26:30.000 You keep implying the men are murderers.

01:26:32.000 Stop using deserve.

01:26:33.000 Shootings are justified, not deserved. 1.00

01:26:36.000 I keep implying the men are murderers?

01:26:37.000 Wait, what?

01:26:39.000 You know what?

01:26:39.000 And that story is so confusing.

01:26:41.000 Conservatives are all on... I got tagged in this red state debunk because I did a video.

01:26:47.000 There was a local news report that said the footage appeared to show Arbery several times at night.

01:26:53.000 According to one Screen filmed from a cell phone video that someone sent me.

01:26:59.000 ABC claimed that the family denied it.

01:27:01.000 I couldn't find the article anywhere.

01:27:02.000 I couldn't find anyone asserting it.

01:27:04.000 I couldn't find anything countering the point made by the local journalists who pointed out the video.

01:27:10.000 But, there's a, uh, RedState said that, they were the one source I found saying that the man is different.

01:27:17.000 But I'm like, you know what man, we'll, I gotta wait for more information on this one, but I did put it in.

01:27:22.000 That's the thing, I don't know anything about it.

01:27:25.000 Everything I'm seeing, as I said earlier, it's like I see people over here and people over here spouting whatever, you know, information they've heard.

01:27:32.000 Bias. 0.86

01:27:32.000 But it's like, everything I'm looking at isn't real information. 0.86

01:27:36.000 It's like what they took and like, Yeah, that must be true So I'm gonna yell it to the sky and it's like the weirdest thing is the conservatives defending that I don't know any truth It's totally normal to go into a construction site all the time like I mean, I worked construction and that's not true at all, right?

01:27:53.000 If anybody in the trades saw someone that they didn't know, because all the electricians, they know all the HVAC guys, they all know each other, so it's like if they close down a construction site and someone's in there that they don't know, they know that you're not supposed to be there.

01:28:08.000 You're probably looking for copper, looking for tools that were left out.

01:28:12.000 Copper was a big thing.

01:28:13.000 That's shady.

01:28:15.000 How are they talking like it's a normal thing?

01:28:17.000 Who's saying that it's normal to go to a construction site?

01:28:23.000 There was a construction site in Chicago and a bunch of skateboarders looted it for tons of building materials.

01:28:28.000 That's pretty much what happened.

01:28:31.000 They were building ramps and stuff with it.

01:28:32.000 They were like, free stuff!

01:28:34.000 And they went in.

01:28:34.000 And I'm like, that's why it's Chicago.

01:28:36.000 Maybe it's an urban... I don't know.

01:28:39.000 Anyway, the point I was making before about the story is that, I did a ton of searches on this, people are sharing a video where someone took their phone and filmed their TV, and then you hear someone say, the family denies this man, and I'm like, bro, I can't use that as a source.

01:28:53.000 That's not enough.

01:28:54.000 I have a local CBS affiliate straight up saying, there's footage uncovered that appears to show the man, and I'm like, that's what I went off of.

01:29:02.000 So, RedState apparently has, you know, put this out.

01:29:05.000 RedState tends to be, and I mean no disrespect, a conservative commentary website.

01:29:10.000 So I took it into consideration.

01:29:12.000 I added a note to the video that it appears to be it might not.

01:29:16.000 But until we have a bigger update on, you know, and we might not ever know, it's like, bro, it's a rock and a hard place for me because so many people are biased in trying to influence my coverage on this.

01:29:25.000 If I came out and said, oh, I guess it's not him, and I have no source for it, then I'm in an equally bad position where I'm gonna get a ton of people criticizing me for, you know what I mean?

01:29:32.000 Yeah.

01:29:33.000 So it's difficult, you know?

01:29:33.000 I mean, I'm just like, we should just not touch it, because we don't know enough truth.

01:29:36.000 Yeah, we gotta wait for a little bit.

01:29:37.000 Right, and that's what I've been saying the whole time.

01:29:39.000 Right.

01:29:39.000 The gist of it is... We don't know enough.

01:29:42.000 Yeah.

01:29:43.000 Steven says, Adam, do a Jesus pose for us.

01:29:46.000 How does Jesus pose?

01:29:47.000 I don't know.

01:29:48.000 I think that's not Jesus.

01:29:51.000 I don't care.

01:29:52.000 That's the soy Jesus. 0.53

01:29:53.000 That's the soy version.

01:29:55.000 I don't know Jesus.

01:29:56.000 I'm not religious.

01:29:57.000 Antonio says, I'm glad you guys are back.

01:30:00.000 Me too.

01:30:01.000 Timothy, thanks for becoming a member.

01:30:03.000 That's a great name.

01:30:03.000 Thank you.

01:30:04.000 Coyle says, Tim, your Ben Shapiro the other night was epic.

01:30:07.000 Please give us more.

01:30:08.000 Well, it's gotta come out naturally.

01:30:09.000 That's right, you can't force it.

01:30:10.000 Mad people were hitting me up like, dude, he nailed Ben Shapiro.

01:30:13.000 I'm like, alright, alright.

01:30:15.000 He's good at impressions.

01:30:17.000 Sometimes.

01:30:18.000 Now you're good.

01:30:18.000 Wow, that would be insane.

01:30:19.000 That'd be so fun.

01:30:20.000 I mean, I'd be down to be on it, but I feel like I'm outclassed by all of them.

01:30:23.000 JRE Beyond E Thuner, Thundercast.

01:30:26.000 Wow, that would be insane.

01:30:28.000 That'd be so fun.

01:30:28.000 I mean, I'd be down to be on it, but I feel like I'm outclassed by all of them.

01:30:31.000 I don't know, I'd be like, why would I be on that?

01:30:32.000 That's so much fun.

01:30:33.000 It would be really loud in that room.

01:30:35.000 And I'd be sitting there like, no, it would be Alex.

01:30:38.000 Yeah.

01:30:40.000 Yeah, it'd be.

01:30:40.000 It's true.

01:30:41.000 His volume's always at 11.

01:30:43.000 You know what's crazy about Alex Jones, man?

01:30:45.000 I was watching a video of him from like the late 90s.

01:30:48.000 OK.

01:30:50.000 She was a normal guy.

01:30:51.000 Oh, really?

01:30:52.000 Yeah, it was like some clip where someone asked him questions.

01:30:54.000 No, no, this was from the early 2000s.

01:30:56.000 Someone asked him about 9-11.

01:30:57.000 And he was like, the caller calls in and then says something like, how could you believe any of this stuff?

01:31:03.000 And his response was like, listen, I got the Associated Press, and I got a report here that says, and he starts naming people, and he's like, now, let me ask you, like, what do you think about that news report?

01:31:10.000 Because right there it says, and I'm like, that seems pretty average.

01:31:14.000 That sounds like he's actually looking at the news and asking questions.

01:31:18.000 Now you turn on his stuff and he's like, You know, I don't know.

01:31:21.000 I will eat my neighbors.

01:31:22.000 Yeah.

01:31:24.000 I will eat my neighbors.

01:31:26.000 Yeah.

01:31:27.000 I understand the point he was making, but he really is very, very different.

01:31:30.000 Well, it's almost like he figured out that crazy stuff gets more hits.

01:31:35.000 Like other people have figured out?

01:31:37.000 Yeah.

01:31:37.000 It seems to be kind of a thing nowadays.

01:31:40.000 Interesting.

01:31:40.000 Crazy stuff gets shared more.

01:31:42.000 I will eat my neighbors.

01:31:43.000 Like, wow.

01:31:44.000 I would never eat human.

01:31:45.000 Yeah, he said that full well knowing that it was going to be everywhere.

01:31:50.000 And I think it's because when they banned him, he became like, he needs to find a way to get into the mainstream again to get that attention, to get that press.

01:31:58.000 Boom.

01:31:59.000 Eat his neighbors.

01:32:01.000 But it's crazy, like somebody made a meme about this, where it showed him like one of his earliest TV show, like public access things.

01:32:09.000 And it was like a normal question.

01:32:12.000 And it's like the meme, the meme was literally just showing his progression.

01:32:14.000 And it was like, the government is lying to us and we need to challenge the authority.

01:32:18.000 The next one was like, the government is staging terror attacks against its own people.

01:32:22.000 The next one is, the government is actually alien lizard people. 0.96

01:32:24.000 And the last one was like, 5G, COVID, aliens, interdimensional beings, cell phone towers.

01:32:30.000 It's just been like a, it's gone nuts.

01:32:31.000 Crazy.

01:32:32.000 Yeah.

01:32:33.000 Let's read more.

01:32:34.000 Toolbox says, I ruined it for you?

01:32:37.000 Yeah.

01:32:37.000 Why?

01:32:37.000 Yeah, you ruined it for me.

01:32:38.000 How's that?

01:32:39.000 That's right.

01:32:39.000 Just straight ruined it for me, bro.

01:32:40.000 Oh no, how?

01:32:41.000 Smash Brothers?

01:32:42.000 you play on stream sometime Adam Lydia and and I'm versus 10 so I

01:32:47.000 In smash brothers he ruined it for me. I ruined it for you.

01:32:50.000 Yeah, why yeah, you ruined it for me How's that right just straight ruined it for me bro? How

01:32:55.000 smash brothers? Yeah, I'll explain He's so good

01:32:59.000 That when I try to play over we go this camera Okay.

01:33:02.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:33:02.000 When I try to play, I tried a few times, he wrecked me.

01:33:06.000 It was just, you know, going up against a pro.

01:33:09.000 You're a pro.

01:33:10.000 No way, dude.

01:33:10.000 You're a pro, dude.

01:33:11.000 Absolutely not.

01:33:11.000 Yeah, sure, you're not getting paid by Nintendo or anything.

01:33:14.000 No, no, no, no, dude.

01:33:15.000 Not on a team.

01:33:16.000 No way.

01:33:17.000 Compared to me, you were?

01:33:18.000 Yeah.

01:33:18.000 You gotta watch these pro Smash Bros videos.

01:33:20.000 Anyway, to answer, he specifically said Atomcast, so.

01:33:24.000 That's right.

01:33:24.000 This is for me here.

01:33:26.000 I don't play Smash Bros.

01:33:28.000 I mean, I don't... I stopped playing Nintendo stuff.

01:33:30.000 The last thing I got was like 3DS.

01:33:32.000 And all I did was get a bunch of nostalgic games that I used to play on my, you know, old Game Boy.

01:33:38.000 But I would play it, but I just... PvP games in general tend to get boring for me.

01:33:43.000 I like multiplayer games, going out and doing stuff as a co-op.

01:33:47.000 And that's all it is, just beating each other up over and over and over again.

01:33:50.000 I can't do those games.

01:33:51.000 I just am so over it.

01:33:54.000 You gotta watch Pro Smash Bros.

01:33:55.000 Yeah.

01:33:56.000 It is some of the most ridiculous... Pro Smash Bros.

01:33:59.000 Yeah.

01:33:59.000 It's got a good flow.

01:34:00.000 It's crazy.

01:34:01.000 So I used to, in Melee, I played Marth.

01:34:04.000 And, uh, when they, then, you know, I've typically preferred playing Marth, but I think they, like, he's not that good anymore, so I play Lucina.

01:34:12.000 Okay.

01:34:12.000 Fox, uh, Fox, man, I go, I go nuts.

01:34:15.000 I think I played Cloud, didn't I?

01:34:17.000 Wasn't Cloud a- Yeah, probably, yeah, Cloud's in there, yeah.

01:34:19.000 Yeah, and he's pretty good, right?

01:34:20.000 Mmm.

01:34:21.000 Oh, is it- I think he's like- Is it Zelda who's pretty good?

01:34:23.000 No.

01:34:24.000 I don't know, I picked some character, you're like, oh, they're pretty good.

01:34:27.000 I can't remember.

01:34:27.000 I thought it was Cloud.

01:34:28.000 Maybe- I saw Cloud, I'm like, yes.

01:34:29.000 Maybe Sheik or something. 0.99

01:34:30.000 Cloud is, you know... Powerful, right?

01:34:33.000 Is that what you're, maybe that's what you're saying?

01:34:35.000 Kind of.

01:34:36.000 If two people who've never played before, one person picks Cloud and one person picks, like, I don't know, Mario.

01:34:42.000 Anything else?

01:34:43.000 Cloud's really good for someone who's never played, but Cloud's got a really bad recovery.

01:34:47.000 Oh, okay.

01:34:47.000 So it depends on the map you're playing.

01:34:49.000 I typically like to play in just straight up, not Battlefield, Omega mode, so basically Final Destination.

01:34:55.000 Yeah, okay.

01:34:56.000 And just a flat Battlefield.

01:34:57.000 But Cloud's got a really weak recovery.

01:35:00.000 So he's got really good recovery, but he's not one of the top.

01:35:04.000 I think Lucina is in the top tier, but it depends. 0.94

01:35:07.000 They change it sometimes.

01:35:08.000 So, you know, from playing Marth, I prefer Lucina, but with Fox, Fox is kind of weak, but man, I can lock people down like crazy.

01:35:15.000 Just like, zoop, zoop, zoop, zoop, zoop, zoop.

01:35:16.000 Just totally.

01:35:17.000 And then nobody wants to play anymore, so I just, I don't play.

01:35:20.000 But definitely not pro, man.

01:35:21.000 I am not good at that game.

01:35:23.000 I'm like someone who's played it for a long time, but if I played any pro, it'd be done in 30 seconds and I'd be like, Yeah, would not be fun.

01:35:31.000 Word.

01:35:33.000 LaSalle says, hello guys!

01:35:34.000 Hi!

01:35:35.000 Hello!

01:35:35.000 Chuck Moore says, do as told or I will shut the Matrix down.

01:35:38.000 Don't do that.

01:35:39.000 You could.

01:35:40.000 The Shadowed Archivist says, love the content, Tim and co.

01:35:43.000 Definitely not for anything serious, but you guys should take a look at Jreg for a laugh. 0.98

01:35:47.000 He referenced you in a video about the dangers of the Alt-Center rabbit hole.

01:35:51.000 Oh, that's us!

01:35:51.000 The Alt-Center.

01:35:52.000 The Alt-Center.

01:35:53.000 Scary.

01:35:55.000 The Alt-Center.

01:35:57.000 What does the Alt mean?

01:35:58.000 Like, we're literal center.

01:36:00.000 Yeah, I guess, yeah.

01:36:01.000 Oh, I'm slightly to the right and you're slightly to the left, so that would be alternatives, I guess.

01:36:06.000 Alternatives, sure.

01:36:06.000 That's what I came up with.

01:36:07.000 I don't know.

01:36:08.000 Center, whatever.

01:36:09.000 Yeah, why not.

01:36:10.000 Carlos says hello from the Dominican Republic.

01:36:13.000 Nice, what up?

01:36:14.000 Hey, cool.

01:36:15.000 Do you guys have mangu there?

01:36:16.000 You ever have mango?

01:36:18.000 Boiled mashed plantains?

01:36:19.000 We've talked about it.

01:36:20.000 People love that stuff.

01:36:20.000 We even got plantains.

01:36:21.000 Did we ever make it?

01:36:22.000 We never made it happen.

01:36:24.000 That's a shame.

01:36:24.000 We'll make it happen.

01:36:25.000 Pickled onions on top?

01:36:27.000 Mmm.

01:36:27.000 Fried cheese?

01:36:28.000 Yeah.

01:36:29.000 Chow. 0.95

01:36:29.000 Where we at, where we at? 0.95

01:36:30.000 You can put chow on there.

01:36:31.000 Technically Right says, book recommendation for you guys, The Defenders of Liberty, Human Nature, Individualism, and Property Rights in Parvini by N. Parvini.

01:36:40.000 It's an exploration and analysis of the history and development of classical liberalism.

01:36:44.000 Cool.

01:36:44.000 Very cool.

01:36:45.000 I wonder if Sargon's read it.

01:36:47.000 James Wallace says, toss a coin to my beanie man and soy Jesus. 0.62

01:36:50.000 Thank you very much, but not to you, Lydia!

01:36:52.000 You get nothing!

01:36:53.000 You get no coin.

01:36:54.000 No coin.

01:36:56.000 Matthew, well, neither is Adam right now.

01:36:57.000 Oh, hey, what the heck?

01:36:59.000 Come on.

01:36:59.000 Hey, I'm soy Jesus.

01:37:02.000 Matthew says, Bill Clinton gave China the rocket technology in 1999.

01:37:06.000 Great.

01:37:06.000 Wow.

01:37:07.000 It's Bill Clinton's fault.

01:37:09.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:37:10.000 That was a joke.

01:37:10.000 So weird.

01:37:10.000 I can tell you this.

01:37:11.000 I won't be watching that.

01:37:12.000 I mean, I just watch reruns of Family Guy.

01:37:13.000 seen documentary that is going to be released soon. And he bets they will imply that Trump

01:37:17.000 is connected to him. They already had a clip of Trump and Epstein in the trailer, yet nothing

01:37:20.000 with Clinton's. Oh, of course they will. So weird. So annoying how obvious the manipulation

01:37:26.000 is right now as we go into the election. I can tell you this. I won't be watching that.

01:37:31.000 I mean, I just watch reruns of Family Guy. I like documentaries, but you know. Yeah,

01:37:36.000 man. Let's see. William says Joe Rogan talked about moving to Texas if C.A.L.A. can.

01:37:41.000 County keeps things locked down for much longer.

01:37:43.000 Joe, Elon, and maybe Tim in Texas.

01:37:45.000 We've talked about Texas, man.

01:37:46.000 We have.

01:37:47.000 I like Texas.

01:37:48.000 Texas is good.

01:37:48.000 I have the cowboy hat.

01:37:50.000 It's far from everywhere.

01:37:51.000 That's the only thing about Texas.

01:37:54.000 It's becoming a weird political place.

01:37:56.000 It is, isn't it?

01:37:56.000 Yeah.

01:37:57.000 That's true.

01:37:57.000 That's why I was like, I don't know, West Virginia, man.

01:37:59.000 But it'd be cool.

01:38:00.000 I mean, there's a bunch of people down there.

01:38:04.000 Crowder's down there.

01:38:05.000 The Blaze is down there.

01:38:07.000 Jacob Reynolds says, should I start with a longboard for skateboarding?

01:38:12.000 You know what?

01:38:12.000 This is what I tell everyone.

01:38:14.000 Just go into a skate shop and stand on all the boards.

01:38:18.000 Longboards are significantly easier to understand your balance.

01:38:21.000 You can spread your stance out more.

01:38:23.000 I would suggest, you know, yeah, it is easier.

01:38:28.000 If you want to skateboard, like trick skateboarding, like the classic skateboarding, don't ever get a longboard.

01:38:35.000 You're gonna get used to the board that you're you're riding and it's better to Get one board and stick with it because you'll just become better on that board So if you're planning on just skating around distance wise just you know scooting around the neighborhood then get a long boards a lot easier you can get like a hybrid board that's bigger, but you can still trick it and They're out there.

01:38:56.000 They exist.

01:38:57.000 Dude, I've seen videos of people doing hybrid boards.

01:39:01.000 It's built like a short board, but it's a long board.

01:39:03.000 Yeah, I've got one.

01:39:05.000 Arbor has one.

01:39:05.000 It's called the Shakedown, and it's great.

01:39:08.000 It's a great board.

01:39:09.000 Get some handrails on that thing.

01:39:11.000 It's massive.

01:39:11.000 You feel like a little kid again.

01:39:12.000 Yeah, they're huge.

01:39:14.000 It feels huge, yeah.

01:39:15.000 But they're great.

01:39:17.000 Soft wheels.

01:39:18.000 Here it comes.

01:39:18.000 Luke says Tim, with all the quote, wrongs you said today, reminds me of the orange man, just admit it and vote for Trump.

01:39:25.000 Well, hold on.

01:39:26.000 I keep trying.

01:39:27.000 Hold up.

01:39:27.000 Lydia, are you going to vote for Trump?

01:39:30.000 I have not decided who I'm going to vote for, and the only thing I've decided is that whoever I vote for, nobody else is going to know.

01:39:35.000 You're not going to tell anybody if you vote for anybody?

01:39:37.000 Nope.

01:39:38.000 I won't tell anybody even if I don't vote at all.

01:39:40.000 And you said you would vote for Trump.

01:39:41.000 Yeah, I would.

01:39:42.000 Yeah?

01:39:42.000 Yeah, I don't like what the Democrats are doing right now.

01:39:45.000 That's a good point.

01:39:45.000 I don't like Biden at all.

01:39:48.000 I want to understand what's happening, and I don't understand what he's saying.

01:39:52.000 Yeah.

01:39:52.000 That's a good point.

01:39:53.000 Yeah.

01:39:53.000 they're gonna switch him out with someone that didn't earn their place there and that

01:39:58.000 that's a good point not okay with me at all that's not what we're about that's probably

01:40:02.000 the best point I've heard about why not to support any Democrat if they switch out Joe

01:40:07.000 Biden for Cuomo they have knifed Bernie in the back yeah the entire democracy like oh

01:40:13.000 no we're just gonna put this person in because we think he has a chance it's like what we

01:40:18.000 think he has a chance like who's no no no this is NC mm-hmm if if if there was ever

01:40:23.000 a reason to get me to vote for Trump the Democrats have found it yeah

01:40:26.000 Because I hate the idea of voting for the lesser of two evils, but to allow them to continue to subvert the democratic process, they cannot be allowed to get away with what they've done with Russiagate, with Adam Schiff's lying.

01:40:39.000 They can't.

01:40:41.000 And we learn more and more every day.

01:40:42.000 Like now Joe Biden is implicated in the unmasking.

01:40:45.000 He lied on TV about whether he knew about it.

01:40:47.000 It's ridiculous.

01:40:48.000 So is it a punishment vote?

01:40:51.000 I don't have TDS, right?

01:40:55.000 I don't think Donald Trump is the end of the world or some kind of like Antichrist or anything.

01:40:59.000 I think he's another guy, he's another president.

01:41:01.000 He's actually a lot better than some of the other presidents we have, but I personally, he would not be my choice.

01:41:06.000 However, do I have to do a vote of... Actually, I don't even think it's necessarily fair to call Trump one of the evils.

01:41:14.000 He's just not somebody I ultimately agree with on certain policy issues.

01:41:19.000 But for the most part, the Democrats haven't made any good arguments as to why I shouldn't agree with him on China tariffs, the building the wall, or anything like this.

01:41:27.000 So it leaves me in a position where I'm like, Well, I didn't used to, you know, be on board with— Well, I'm not on board with more conservative, you know, positions, probably like about taxing, social issues, maybe, you know, pro-life, pro-choice kind of stuff.

01:41:43.000 But for the most part, I think because the Democrats have gone so far off the rails, the conservatives have now built a coalition where you actually have pro-LGBT, pro-social issues.

01:41:53.000 You've got people like Ariel Scarcella, who is Not necessarily conservative, but you have the walk away campaign where you actually have people who are like what the liberals are now in the Trump camp.

01:42:05.000 So the issue I guess for me is for the most part is, I've already said over and over again, it's been easier than ever to consider Trump as the right choice for one reason.

01:42:12.000 You're just teasing everybody now.

01:42:14.000 Not even.

01:42:15.000 It's because people want me to wave a flag and I'm not going to do it.

01:42:18.000 I never would.

01:42:19.000 That's true.

01:42:20.000 I mean, I'm not gonna go out and, like, put a Trump sign anywhere.

01:42:23.000 I mean, figuratively.

01:42:24.000 It's like, we need the economy back, and you made a good point.

01:42:29.000 He did a great job bringing it up.

01:42:32.000 That's the one issue.

01:42:32.000 Why wouldn't he do another good job instead of some random person that's gonna come in and have to relearn everything?

01:42:38.000 Or not necessarily relearn, but, you know.

01:42:40.000 For three years.

01:42:42.000 The economy was improving and better than ever.

01:42:44.000 And now, because this virus hit, and it's not Trump's fault, it's the governors who wanted everything shut down.

01:42:50.000 It's the governors Trump has no power over.

01:42:52.000 That's the Tenth Amendment. 0.79

01:42:53.000 So who better to fix things than the guy who already proved that he could make the economy work?

01:42:58.000 That's the best argument possible, which, like I said in several videos, why it's easier than ever and why I'm leaning towards absolutely voting for him.

01:43:05.000 And more importantly, I said this, I think I said it today, The scary thing about... I will never vote for a Democrat.

01:43:10.000 At least for the time being.

01:43:12.000 Maybe in a few years.

01:43:12.000 And the reason is, you look at what they did with their power.

01:43:16.000 They lied to the American people.

01:43:18.000 They manipulated people.

01:43:20.000 They're trying to put in insane policies that have gone so far to the left, there's no cohesive strategy anymore.

01:43:25.000 And so if you actually believe in the policy of the Democrats from like the year 2010, the year 2000, the Republicans have won all those people over.

01:43:33.000 That's what it seems like, yeah.

01:43:35.000 So independents are fairly split, but they do lean by about four points according to one of the most recent polls in favor of Trump.

01:43:41.000 And the Democrats, according to Gallup, we've now seen a decrease in the amount of people identifying as liberal and an increase in the amount of people identifying as conservative.

01:43:50.000 I have no problem saying, like, look, Joe Rogan came out and said he'd rather vote for Trump over Biden.

01:43:55.000 Yep.

01:43:55.000 I completely agree.

01:43:56.000 Yep.

01:43:57.000 I don't know what's going to happen come November.

01:43:59.000 So, like I said, I lean towards that.

01:44:01.000 It's been easier than ever to say.

01:44:03.000 But I'm not the kind of person.

01:44:04.000 I'm the milquetoast fence-sitter.

01:44:05.000 You will know when something happens where I'm like, it must be done.

01:44:10.000 But there's still third parties.

01:44:11.000 There's still things to talk about.

01:44:14.000 And I hate voting for someone I don't want to vote for simply because I really don't like the other party.

01:44:20.000 I agree with you on that.

01:44:21.000 The other issue is, the Republicans need to do something about Mitch McConnell, people like Lindsey Graham.

01:44:27.000 There are a lot of Republicans who have sat on their hands and done nothing, and as far as I can tell, are probably part of the establishment problem that aren't being, you know, so we'll see what happens.

01:44:36.000 That I definitely agree with.

01:44:38.000 But the other issue too is like, everything's changing.

01:44:42.000 The Republicans right now, the majority of them, like the people I know that are Trump supporters, I'm like, bro, you were liberal.

01:44:49.000 You know what I mean?

01:44:50.000 Like, there are people I know... Hi.

01:44:52.000 Right.

01:44:52.000 Right, exactly.

01:44:54.000 And it's crazy, you know, I don't want to name anybody because it should be up to them, but there's some people I'm talking to who are, like, as lefty as they come, and they're like, I don't know if I've become conservative or the left has gone nuts, and I'm like, does it matter?

01:45:06.000 Yeah, the left went nuts.

01:45:07.000 That's what happened.

01:45:08.000 But then you end up with people who are regular, liberal-minded people who are now like, my only option is Trump, you know?

01:45:14.000 The problem I have is, like, people don't seem to realize Right, okay.

01:45:18.000 really is very, very different in terms of the professionalism, the character, and to

01:45:25.000 be honest, the stability of the office.

01:45:28.000 But boy was Obama bad.

01:45:30.000 Boy was Obama really bad.

01:45:31.000 And so was Bush.

01:45:32.000 Trump is nowhere near as bad as they were.

01:45:33.000 Trump's got a lot of problems.

01:45:34.000 He's increased drone strikes, the foreign policy stuff I've always been really mad about.

01:45:38.000 But it's like Joe Biden would bring back the failures of the Obama administration.

01:45:43.000 See, I don't know.

01:45:43.000 I wasn't political pretty much my whole life.

01:45:47.000 I was just to kind of live my own way.

01:45:49.000 And these past three months, it's been nothing but politics.

01:45:54.000 We were supposed to do a show about anything but politics.

01:45:57.000 And sure enough, now we're doing this.

01:45:59.000 It's because of the lockdown, man.

01:46:01.000 Yeah, right, of course.

01:46:01.000 I know.

01:46:02.000 Yeah.

01:46:02.000 Yeah, wow.

01:46:02.000 Sonic the Hedgehog, dude, that was awesome.

01:46:04.000 And then it's like, now the front page of every news story is like nothing but the fight over lockdown.

01:46:10.000 I know.

01:46:11.000 Yep.

01:46:12.000 Yeah, wow.

01:46:13.000 So, you know what, man?

01:46:15.000 The way they rigged it against Yang, like, you know.

01:46:19.000 They rigged it against Yang, is that true?

01:46:20.000 I told you.

01:46:21.000 Oh, totally.

01:46:21.000 They turned his microphone off.

01:46:24.000 We talked about that.

01:46:25.000 What Donald Trump would do to him.

01:46:27.000 So it's almost like I can definitely feel the rage where I would love to give them comeuppance by seeing Trump win again.

01:46:34.000 Yeah.

01:46:35.000 But I'm very, very strict for myself on like, I want to vote for someone because I'm like, this is the best person for the job.

01:46:41.000 Yeah.

01:46:43.000 I've already said it a million times.

01:46:44.000 Trump right now, there's no one better.

01:46:46.000 In terms of the economy, that's what I mean.

01:46:48.000 There's a bunch of issues in foreign policy that I think they're better people.

01:46:50.000 Okay.

01:46:51.000 Notably Tulsi.

01:46:52.000 Right, but she's not in the running. 0.58

01:46:53.000 She's not.

01:46:54.000 But it's not even that.

01:46:55.000 I could vote for her if I want to.

01:46:56.000 What if Biden chose Tulsi as his VP?

01:46:58.000 Nah, Biden is the Obama administration.

01:47:00.000 The Obama administration blooped kids.

01:47:01.000 So there's no way you would vote for Biden?

01:47:04.000 Never.

01:47:05.000 Okay.

01:47:05.000 No way.

01:47:05.000 First of all, the dude's nuts, right?

01:47:07.000 I can agree with that.

01:47:10.000 That's funny.

01:47:11.000 I think one of the biggest problems we have is that a lot of the fighting in this country comes down to how we waste resources on, like, this weird conflict in these foreign countries.

01:47:21.000 And, you know, it is really, really difficult.

01:47:24.000 We waste a lot more resources than on everything, just as simple being humans.

01:47:30.000 That's a huge problem that we have.

01:47:33.000 I think there's probably better ways to deal with the Middle East situation, the conflict with China.

01:47:38.000 So I'll tell you what, man.

01:47:40.000 Man, it really is tough because character really does matter.

01:47:43.000 And I've said this over and over again.

01:47:44.000 The Democrats found someone that said very similar things to Trump in regards to policy ideas, securing our borders, bolstering our economy, dealing with the threat of China.

01:47:54.000 And he didn't, you know, he wasn't this bombastic entertainer type who was like, you know, just constantly... He wasn't Trump.

01:48:01.000 Yeah.

01:48:02.000 He probably went on a landslide.

01:48:04.000 So the question is, does Trump's character really matter that much?

01:48:06.000 And I don't think... Probably.

01:48:07.000 No, I mean, kind of, but not enough.

01:48:09.000 So right now, I would say, we'll see what happens.

01:48:12.000 I think based on the pandemic, Trump is the best choice.

01:48:15.000 Name any other politician in the running who's got the economic experience and the proof that they've fixed the economy.

01:48:19.000 I have no idea.

01:48:21.000 Yep.

01:48:21.000 You can hate Trump all you want.

01:48:23.000 And I got issues with the way he behaves.

01:48:25.000 I think he's funny.

01:48:27.000 He's a great entertainer.

01:48:28.000 He is.

01:48:29.000 But it comes to the economy.

01:48:30.000 And I think there's a lot of people who are scared to admit it.

01:48:33.000 I mentioned this before, I saw a guy at the airport who said, I wouldn't invite him to my house for dinner, but the money's good.

01:48:40.000 And I think a lot of these people are secret Trump voters.

01:48:44.000 They don't want to admit that they're willing to pick someone they personally don't like because they get good money from the economy.

01:48:51.000 Lucky fix of the economy.

01:48:53.000 For me, it's simple.

01:48:54.000 The economy isn't some nebulous system of making rich people and getting people cash so they can laugh and go party.

01:49:00.000 It's so that we can make the machine work, like a well-oiled machine.

01:49:03.000 And under Trump, we had the best numbers of our lives, according to Jim Cramer.

01:49:07.000 He was also right about the problem of manufacturing with China, and now that the pandemic hit, it's like, listen, the left has been wrong on way too many things.

01:49:14.000 They've made no arguments against Trump's policies.

01:49:17.000 I mean, I'm being hyperbolic.

01:49:19.000 They've made very few.

01:49:20.000 A little.

01:49:21.000 Very, very few arguments.

01:49:22.000 They call him a bigot.

01:49:23.000 They call him a racist.

01:49:23.000 They call him far-right.

01:49:25.000 None of it makes sense.

01:49:26.000 And so I'm asking, like, they're not going to offer me anything.

01:49:30.000 And I think that's the problem.

01:49:32.000 I think you've got to accept that Trump is a potty mouth who's a mean guy.

01:49:36.000 His own words.

01:49:37.000 But man, is he better than... He owns up to it.

01:49:40.000 ...than what else you get.

01:49:41.000 So one of the problems with Biden, the reason why I would never vote for him, Imagine if Trump did that?

01:49:47.000 says he had a scandal-free presidency.

01:49:50.000 Barack Obama killed a 16-year-old American.

01:49:52.000 He killed a bunch of American citizens without charge or trial.

01:49:55.000 You'd think that would be a big scandal, but the press was defending him.

01:49:58.000 They were protecting him.

01:49:59.000 Imagine if Trump did that.

01:50:00.000 Trump did it.

01:50:01.000 He killed Americans too?

01:50:02.000 One of the first things that happened when Trump got into office was he ordered a commando

01:50:05.000 raid which resulted in the death of an 8-year-old American girl.

01:50:08.000 I believe it was Abdelrahman's little sister.

01:50:10.000 I've never heard of that.

01:50:11.000 So these are things that I have serious issues with.

01:50:14.000 Now, some people have tried explaining this away to me, saying that, look, you know, Trump isn't a foreign policy guy, so he was being pressured by these bad advisors and he was surrounded by Deep State and blah blah blah, and I'm like, I'm willing to accept that if he does something about this.

01:50:29.000 And then when he announced he was going to start pulling troops out of Syria, and then you saw the media really went after him, I was like, these are good things. 1.00

01:50:35.000 Yeah.

01:50:35.000 And so perhaps it's aside from his character, there's a lot of really good things about Trump that we haven't seen in a long time.

01:50:43.000 But more importantly, first of all, I hate voting for people.

01:50:46.000 I hate being like, I got behind this person because you never know what they're going to do.

01:50:50.000 Yeah.

01:50:51.000 The problem right now is we are facing a serious economic crisis.

01:50:55.000 And we got a guy who was in office for years who gave us a great economy.

01:50:59.000 I really don't know what else you could ask for.

01:51:01.000 So this is the point I'm making.

01:51:03.000 I am leaning absolutely in favor of voting for Trump.

01:51:05.000 I am not.

01:51:07.000 We're not there yet.

01:51:08.000 We're six months out.

01:51:09.000 Yeah, but we'll see.

01:51:10.000 We'll see how it plays out.

01:51:11.000 And when I know for sure, like when I come out of that voting booth, if I said, you know what,

01:51:15.000 we got to do this, then I'll be on.

01:51:16.000 I'll be like, oh, I went and did it.

01:51:17.000 You know what I mean?

01:51:18.000 Okay.

01:51:19.000 I just think there's you got to be careful, man.

01:51:22.000 Because, you know why I'm like, tepid on this?

01:51:27.000 No, because I voted for Obama the first time.

01:51:28.000 Me too.

01:51:29.000 And then, you know what he did?

01:51:30.000 He blew up a village of women and children.

01:51:32.000 And I had to go to my friends and be like, eh, I supported that.

01:51:35.000 And that's why I'm like, I don't wanna play that game, dude.

01:51:37.000 You fooled me once.

01:51:39.000 So...

01:51:40.000 Drones it was a drone strike like 23 women and children and then all my friends who are dancing around

01:51:45.000 I'm like so now do I have to come here and be like?

01:51:48.000 The people I knew who didn't vote for Obama were like see what you've done

01:51:51.000 And I'm like what would McCain have done something else and they're like no excuse and I'm like there's no excuse

01:51:55.000 We don't know what McCain would have done Obama did it Obama did it's way worse, but they're saying it's your

01:52:00.000 fault though No, it was just like the point was like you voted for it

01:52:04.000 And it reminds me of what George Carlin said.

01:52:05.000 That's virtue signaling.

01:52:07.000 Remember what George Carlin said?

01:52:09.000 He was like, people always blame me saying, you didn't vote.

01:52:11.000 It's your fault.

01:52:11.000 I know you voted for him.

01:52:12.000 It's your fault.

01:52:13.000 And I'm like, I agree.

01:52:15.000 Like, that's why I in 2016, I didn't vote.

01:52:18.000 I was like, I don't know, man.

01:52:19.000 I don't want to be involved in this.

01:52:20.000 But I think regardless of your feelings on Trump, the economy is really important.

01:52:24.000 We've got people who are in trouble.

01:52:25.000 It's like one of the most important things we need to get going again right now.

01:52:29.000 It's like if we don't, so many people are going to die.

01:52:32.000 They think the coronavirus is bad?

01:52:34.000 Like, no.

01:52:35.000 When the food stops coming and people start killing each other over food, that's going to be what's next.

01:52:42.000 if we don't get the economy going so all I can think it's like we need to get this economy going

01:52:46.000 what who's good for the economy what trump he did a good job with the economy it's like I was never

01:52:51.000 really a trump fan you know and I don't know I don't know Biden but anytime I hear him speak I'm

01:52:55.000 like oh stop speaking dude no just stop please the wall thing is funny the build the wall the big

01:53:02.000 beautiful wall from sea to shining sea and I roll my eyes I'm like yeah we were watching family you

01:53:08.000 see that clip from family guy earlier we were watching we're talking about this stuff well

01:53:11.000 this is funny they uh they were in Mexico okay like the Griffins with quagmire and then Consuela

01:53:17.000 helps them escape okay and And then they're like, thanks Consuela.

01:53:20.000 And they're like, now how far to America?

01:53:21.000 And she's like, this is Texas.

01:53:23.000 And then they're like, what?

01:53:24.000 And Quagmire goes, wait a minute, you mean we just walked into America?

01:53:27.000 There was nothing there.

01:53:28.000 We just literally walked in.

01:53:30.000 He's like, come on guys, politics aside, we agree this is a problem, right?

01:53:33.000 And then they all look at him and the scene cuts.

01:53:35.000 I'm like, what was this?

01:53:37.000 Like Seth MacFarlane just coming straight up being like, why is there no...

01:53:40.000 So, uh, yeah, there's a lot of bombastic, hyperbolic, silly I roll my eyes at, but nah, man, we need that economy.

01:53:48.000 We do.

01:53:49.000 We do.

01:53:49.000 We need it.

01:53:50.000 So we'll see how things play out.

01:53:51.000 But that's that's what I've said before.

01:53:53.000 And it's funny because, like, a lot of Trump people act like I've not said this.

01:53:56.000 I'm like, I said this three months ago.

01:53:58.000 Yeah.

01:53:58.000 You know, we'll see how it plays out, man.

01:54:00.000 We really got to get to these super chats.

01:54:01.000 Holy cow. 0.89

01:54:02.000 Do we have to get to these super chats?

01:54:03.000 We're not going to make it because...

01:54:05.000 It was a good episode, though.

01:54:06.000 It was good fun.

01:54:06.000 It was very fun.

01:54:07.000 Alright, where we at?

01:54:07.000 Where we at?

01:54:08.000 Graf Von Tiro says, how General Flynn is being railroaded is disgusting.

01:54:12.000 Time to put a kibosh on the whole circus and pardon him.

01:54:15.000 Face it.

01:54:16.000 Democrats, face it Democrats, Russiagate is the political journalistic equivalent of the

01:54:20.000 Piltdown Man.

01:54:21.000 I don't know what that is.

01:54:24.000 King Mad Hatter says, Can you explain to a non-American how you can drone on and on about freedom but can't have chickens? 0.98

01:54:30.000 I can have 200 ducks chickens before government gets involved.

01:54:33.000 I have six ducks.

01:54:34.000 I know!

01:54:35.000 Two words.

01:54:36.000 New Jersey.

01:54:36.000 I want chickens.

01:54:38.000 Me too.

01:54:39.000 The Grizzly says, what's wrong with Michigan?

01:54:41.000 That's a rather simple answer.

01:54:43.000 Detroit is what's wrong with Michigan.

01:54:44.000 I'm from there.

01:54:45.000 Out of state in Florida.

01:54:46.000 May move here permanently.

01:54:48.000 The thing is that Whitmer's making the entire state locked down because of Detroit.

01:54:52.000 That's what it is in most states.

01:54:53.000 That makes sense.

01:54:54.000 New York City goes bad, lock the whole state down.

01:54:57.000 Because they can.

01:54:58.000 And then New Jersey, like right across, like Newark on the other side, or Jersey City, it's like, it's the same metro, man.

01:55:03.000 Well, it's funny, because Jersey is almost, I mean, I know there's a lot of, like, foresty areas, but there's so many suburbs here.

01:55:11.000 Yeah.

01:55:11.000 The suburbs of Philadelphia, and suburbs of New York City, and it's just like one big suburb state, almost.

01:55:17.000 Right, yeah.

01:55:17.000 You know, where all the people commute, they commute down to D.C.

01:55:21.000 probably from here.

01:55:22.000 Yep.

01:55:23.000 Ah, man.

01:55:23.000 Yeah, we live in the suburbs of big cities.

01:55:25.000 Kind of makes sense, yeah.

01:55:28.000 Big Al says, Average age of COVID deaths in most places are higher than life expectancy of human beings.

01:55:34.000 90% over 60, 90% underlying conditions.

01:55:36.000 Fact check me.

01:55:37.000 No, I'm pretty sure that's correct.

01:55:40.000 Nope Nope says, If that 40 foot pipe fell from outer space, why is it so straight?

01:55:46.000 Good question.

01:55:49.000 The Grizzly adds, even though areas like Kalamazoo has a grand total of 11 cases since the start of the outbreak, a lot of rural counties are starting to rise up.

01:55:58.000 The outcome will be the same with California and New York.

01:56:01.000 Violent uprising than a full civil war.

01:56:04.000 We'll see.

01:56:04.000 We'll see about that.

01:56:05.000 But we did have a story where armed militia are blocking a bar saying the police will not arrest this barbershop.

01:56:12.000 I'm sorry, not a bar, a barbershop.

01:56:13.000 Yeah, in Michigan.

01:56:14.000 Right.

01:56:15.000 Mm-hmm.

01:56:15.000 Yeah, they're like, no dice.

01:56:16.000 Yeah, the 77-year-old was like, I'm gonna open my barbershop, keep it open, whatever.

01:56:20.000 That's crazy.

01:56:21.000 There are parts, I was reading something, I can't remember which state, but it's very similar.

01:56:26.000 The entire state has no cases and they lock down.

01:56:28.000 There's like one city with a small handful of cases, so they lock down rural parts that have almost no contact with other parts of the state.

01:56:36.000 The weirdest thing.

01:56:36.000 Yep.

01:56:37.000 Power.

01:56:38.000 Yep.

01:56:39.000 Ella Mondorius says, Hey Tim, do you think that Democrats are aware that they're hindering their chances of re-election by talking about permanent lockdowns?

01:56:46.000 Or would they be safe from zombies in the apocalypse?

01:56:50.000 I think they must be trying to help Trump.

01:56:53.000 It's the only thing I can think of.

01:56:55.000 Yep.

01:56:55.000 Like everything I just said in my rant about what they're doing.

01:56:59.000 They were like, the DNC is like, we really need to make sure Trump wins.

01:57:02.000 Biden.

01:57:03.000 Yeah.

01:57:03.000 There you go.

01:57:05.000 I will see, I guess.

01:57:07.000 Eggman says, calling it now, that Chinese rocket was carrying COVID-20.

01:57:10.000 I knew it!

01:57:11.000 Or super corona.

01:57:12.000 Luckily, the made in China quality saved us all. 1.00

01:57:15.000 There you go.

01:57:16.000 James says, so hopefully the Space Force isn't going to have to be a glorified trash cleanup service.

01:57:21.000 There is so much junk up there.

01:57:22.000 That's true.

01:57:23.000 Definitely.

01:57:24.000 And it probably will.

01:57:25.000 Really bad.

01:57:25.000 It probably will.

01:57:26.000 Michelle, thanks for the super chat.

01:57:27.000 Jerry says, so what you're saying, something made in China falls apart?

01:57:31.000 That's not rocket science.

01:57:32.000 Haha, get it?

01:57:33.000 Love it.

01:57:34.000 I get it.

01:57:34.000 Carl says, earmarked for van maintenance.

01:57:36.000 Appreciate it.

01:57:36.000 We do have to do maintenance after that big trip.

01:57:39.000 Shedick X says, Tim, here's some Trump bucks, and have you heard BuzzFeed shut their doors in Australia and UK?

01:57:45.000 It's only a matter of time when they close in the U.S.

01:57:47.000 Whoa! 0.71

01:57:48.000 Oh, you haven't heard that?

01:57:49.000 Maybe that's why Ben left?

01:57:51.000 Yeah, maybe.

01:57:51.000 People were speculating, like, are you leaving because it's collapsing?

01:57:54.000 And he's like, no, no, no, it's just an opportunity.

01:57:56.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:57:58.000 Yeah.

01:57:58.000 Golden pair.

01:57:59.000 Like the people at the top get the warning, like, go, go, go, take the job, take the job.

01:58:01.000 Yep.

01:58:02.000 Alright, where we at?

01:58:03.000 This is a straight-up land grab.

01:58:04.000 Wow!

01:58:05.000 That's what they're doing, man.

01:58:06.000 Whoa.

01:58:06.000 Wait, wait!

01:58:06.000 Just gave themselves right of first refusal on defaulted properties. This is a straight-up land grab Wow

01:58:12.000 That's what they're doing man. Whoa Alex Aiello says Tim keep an eye on Michigan tomorrow

01:58:18.000 There's going to be another protest and Antifa is going to be counter protesting wait wait

01:58:22.000 Antifa's gonna be protesting in favor of the government That doesn't make any sense yeah the pro fat protifa

01:58:30.000 Wait what Pro what pro no it would be protifa. It would be pro profesh

01:58:37.000 funny. What what profile?

01:58:40.000 Check Detroit news Whitmer outlawed brandishing weapons and changed the definition to include open carry Wow

01:58:46.000 Christian, thanks for the super chat.

01:58:48.000 Bobcat says, the Rods from God is more of a bunker buster than a city buster.

01:58:52.000 Also, can you talk about the disappearing mail-in ballots?

01:58:55.000 I did see that story a few days ago, but we don't have anything pulled up on it.

01:59:00.000 Kojima Fire says, this is a question for the Beanie Bros.

01:59:02.000 As it starts to warm up here, all I have are winter beanies.

01:59:05.000 Could you recommend any light ones for me?

01:59:07.000 The DC clap beanie is one that I often use.

01:59:11.000 Go to skate shops.

01:59:13.000 Skateboarders wear beanies in the summer because they're really thin.

01:59:15.000 It's like, there's also surf beanies.

01:59:17.000 I actually don't really wear beanies that often.

01:59:20.000 No?

01:59:20.000 Yeah, pretty much.

01:59:21.000 You're just trying to get with the show, you know?

01:59:22.000 I was.

01:59:23.000 It's true.

01:59:23.000 I saw your beanie and I was so jealous.

01:59:25.000 Yeah.

01:59:26.000 So I had to do it.

01:59:27.000 No, I mean, I have a beanie.

01:59:28.000 It's mostly for just keeping the hair out of my face, but I usually just tie it back and forget it.

01:59:34.000 When I'm getting serious like today.

01:59:36.000 It's just laziness, honestly.

01:59:38.000 There's one trick that's always eluded me.

01:59:39.000 I can do crazy tricks, man.

01:59:41.000 I can do nollie half hardflip late flips.

01:59:43.000 I can do fakie hardflip fakie ghetto birds. 1.00

01:59:48.000 I can do late flips, but frontside flips have always... I can do a switch frontside flip, nollie backside flip, fakie frontside flip, a regular frontside flip.

01:59:54.000 You landed it today.

01:59:56.000 Yeah, I'll count it.

01:59:57.000 It was really bad.

01:59:57.000 I did one yesterday.

01:59:59.000 You landed it.

02:00:00.000 So I argue I can do it, but it's always eluded me.

02:00:03.000 You landed it.

02:00:04.000 I had to get serious.

02:00:05.000 The beanie came off.

02:00:07.000 It was interesting.

02:00:08.000 He took the beanie off.

02:00:10.000 I was mad.

02:00:10.000 He was focused.

02:00:11.000 I saw it, but then he landed it though.

02:00:13.000 So when we're skating periodically, I have to drain the beanie.

02:00:17.000 He does.

02:00:17.000 I'm telling you, man, skating without something blocking the sweat.

02:00:20.000 It's like in your eyes and your face.

02:00:22.000 Yeah.

02:00:22.000 I'm constantly having to wipe my glasses down.

02:00:25.000 I wish I had contacts because I would love to skate in context.

02:00:28.000 All right.

02:00:29.000 Let's see.

02:00:29.000 Where are we at?

02:00:31.000 Ogre says the rod weapon you're talking about is called the rods from God.

02:00:34.000 These air force rods from God could hit with the force of a nuclear weapon.

02:00:38.000 Yeah.

02:00:39.000 Jeremiah says, hey Lydia, if you knit, apparently well-knit masks are said to be better at excluding pathogens than textile masks.

02:00:45.000 Interesting.

02:00:46.000 If you want to make some forecast.

02:00:47.000 Very cool.

02:00:48.000 Cool.

02:00:48.000 St.

02:00:49.000 Grizzly says, please do a video game stream or gameplay videos like PewDiePie will watch it.

02:00:53.000 Tony Hawk, when that demo comes out.

02:00:56.000 We can do it!

02:00:57.000 It'll be so fun!

02:00:58.000 We should just make a new channel for it.

02:00:58.000 Wait, I thought you said the demo was out.

02:01:00.000 No.

02:01:00.000 Oh, it's not out.

02:01:00.000 I thought it was out.

02:01:01.000 They said, pre-order get the demo now.

02:01:02.000 And I'm like, yes.

02:01:03.000 And I pre-ordered.

02:01:03.000 I was like, we'll let you know when the demo's out.

02:01:05.000 You mother... I wanted to say something, but it was a swear.

02:01:12.000 Yeah.

02:01:12.000 K98 says 3.7 million NIH grant to EcoHealth Alliance to study bat coronaviruses in Wuhan Institute of Virology and gain of function methods worth looking into.

02:01:22.000 It is.

02:01:23.000 That guy who shrugs says, hey Tim, check out the story about Fresno official assaulting protesters.

02:01:28.000 He got three misdemeanors of assault.

02:01:29.000 Watch all footage, it's crazy.

02:01:31.000 They then caught CBS lying when they came on scene saying they were attempting to break in.

02:01:36.000 I did see that story's nuts.

02:01:38.000 Wow.

02:01:39.000 Waterdanger says, Tim the Rogue, Adam the Bard, Lydia the Cleric, Ian the Wizard.

02:01:42.000 Forgot Ian last name.

02:01:44.000 The Wizard.

02:01:46.000 Crossland.

02:01:47.000 Oh, last time.

02:01:50.000 Democracy says, in the future, could you and all you other YouTubers possibly provide links for articles you are reading in the descriptions below?

02:01:57.000 Thanks.

02:01:58.000 I don't want to ask for a manager.

02:02:00.000 Okay.

02:02:01.000 So, there's issues with that because This may be an urban legend, and YouTube has talked about it, but putting external links in YouTube videos, YouTube suppresses those videos.

02:02:11.000 Really?

02:02:11.000 Because they don't want you driving traffic off of YouTube.

02:02:14.000 So what I did was, I made it so that the URL of all of the videos appears in the video, so you can actually see it at top.

02:02:21.000 Oh, that makes sense.

02:02:22.000 Boom.

02:02:22.000 Well, but there you go.

02:02:23.000 There you go.

02:02:23.000 They're all in there.

02:02:25.000 careful about you you to get their finger over the band button so i i i i

02:02:29.000 have a go they go dot they're all in there whenever he uses something it is

02:02:33.000 it is it is that sometimes the u r l's have like weird strings of nonsense and

02:02:37.000 it's hard to source i mean

02:02:39.000 face book is training it's a i two sensor hateful means You type that up in a search engine, that article's gonna come up.

02:02:45.000 I try to be very, very careful about what... I know a whole lot about how YouTube's algorithm works and the things they do.

02:02:52.000 They've claimed this is not true.

02:02:54.000 I don't believe them.

02:02:56.000 Because they also have a link approval system where if you want to put links in your videos that you can click on, you've got to get it approved.

02:03:02.000 Really?

02:03:03.000 Yeah, so if you want to do a card where it's like, here's my website, it's got to be some approved website.

02:03:08.000 So I'm like, I really don't believe it.

02:03:09.000 So people ask me all the time, and this is what I always say, YouTube will suppress this so no one ever sees it, so the best I can do is show you.

02:03:18.000 Here's the site, here's the link.

02:03:19.000 And I gotta be honest, man, when people ask for this, I'm like, you really could just Google what I said.

02:03:24.000 Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

02:03:26.000 It's the same amount of time.

02:03:28.000 Right, you type in the bar.

02:03:29.000 Open a new page.

02:03:30.000 Like, Facebook is training its AI.

02:03:31.000 Type in Facebook is training its AI, enter, and boom, it'll pop up.

02:03:33.000 Right.

02:03:34.000 You know?

02:03:34.000 Come on, people.

02:03:35.000 Yeah.

02:03:36.000 I mean, it's a delicate dance, you know?

02:03:39.000 All right, let's see.

02:03:40.000 Elamondria says, the cat needs to be part of the program forever.

02:03:43.000 You know, I was thinking about putting the cat tower, and then you have the cat sleeping in it.

02:03:48.000 That'd be fun.

02:03:48.000 Because then people would be watching, and then, you know, Buku and Betsy would be doing weird stuff, probably fighting each other.

02:03:53.000 No, they don't climb it at the same time.

02:03:55.000 No, but I mean like the individually when they're on it.

02:03:57.000 Yeah.

02:03:57.000 You'd be like watching the cat lick their paw.

02:04:01.000 Didactics with David Lopez says, I live in Los Angeles and I can promise you that people will revolt.

02:04:06.000 Rioting is in our city's heritage.

02:04:07.000 Get the popcorn.

02:04:08.000 Yeah.

02:04:09.000 True.

02:04:09.000 Indefinite lockdown?

02:04:10.000 We'll see.

02:04:11.000 Wouldn't surprise me.

02:04:12.000 Spartan says, Hey Tim, just quit my job at a warehouse last week when they started making masks mandatory.

02:04:16.000 Makes no sense to require it now.

02:04:18.000 Making more money working at a local butcher shop.

02:04:20.000 Hey, good for you.

02:04:21.000 Nice.

02:04:22.000 It's funny because they were like, masks don't work, don't wear masks.

02:04:25.000 Now you should wear masks.

02:04:27.000 Now that we have all our masks covered, you can go ahead and wear them.

02:04:29.000 Yeah. Arturo Caliente says the S will really hit the fan once the recession hits. Job loss,

02:04:35.000 tax rise, decades to recover. We only passed the prologue of the COVID saga.

02:04:39.000 True. The true economic impact has not hit yet.

02:04:43.000 Exactly.

02:04:43.000 And even if they lift every restriction now, three months from now you will feel it.

02:04:47.000 Yep.

02:04:48.000 And so I see a lot of people saying, the moment you get those Trump bucks, you need to buy something tangible that retains value because the moment they print the money and it drops in your account, the value, the buying power of the dollar starts dramatically going down.

02:05:01.000 So, I don't know what you should do.

02:05:03.000 I like, you know, getting things that, like, I buy tools and stuff.

02:05:07.000 Things that are useful.

02:05:09.000 But, what can you say?

02:05:10.000 I'm not an economist.

02:05:12.000 Stacey Ellis says, It is called the Thousand Talents Plan, created in 2008.

02:05:16.000 That's the Chinese people at the universities.

02:05:19.000 Emily Payton says, High five Soy Jesus for no allergies club. 0.99

02:05:22.000 Lucky.

02:05:24.000 Andrew Starr says, Adam, your mane is luxurious.

02:05:26.000 If I was a lioness, I would say grr.

02:05:28.000 And then there are many lion emojis and laughing emojis.

02:05:31.000 Can I have a high five now?

02:05:33.000 Thank you.

02:05:35.000 Blade Spade says, you can't just drop a giant rod from a stable orbit.

02:05:40.000 To actually get back to Earth, you have to thrust against your orbital vector.

02:05:44.000 Hollywood deeply misunderstands orbital flight mechanics.

02:05:47.000 I would take Blade Spade's word over this than Hollywood, for sure.

02:05:52.000 Stupid Monkey says, the COVID-19 virus lockdown never being cured equals the 1984 Novel Wars.

02:05:56.000 Wow.

02:05:59.000 Azazel, we're literally living in the plot to Captain America Winter Soldier.

02:06:03.000 Ebrock, thanks for becoming a member.

02:06:04.000 Thank you.

02:06:05.000 Hard work, no handouts.

02:06:07.000 Thanks for the super chat.

02:06:08.000 Tucky says, any thoughts on Andrew Yang being a political commentator on CNN?

02:06:12.000 I don't care.

02:06:13.000 You know, good for him.

02:06:15.000 I trust him.

02:06:15.000 I like the guy.

02:06:16.000 I'm skeptical on UBI, but I think he had a ton of really awesome policies.

02:06:19.000 That's why I kind of liked him.

02:06:21.000 He actually did have one of the best arguments for UBI.

02:06:23.000 It is particularly complicated, as always.

02:06:26.000 But good, I'm glad.

02:06:28.000 You know, with him being on CNN, perhaps he will bring about some better commentary and probably, you know, bring some honesty a little bit.

02:06:36.000 Nobody's perfect.

02:06:38.000 Read this next one.

02:06:39.000 Which one?

02:06:40.000 The next one.

02:06:41.000 Wesley Velasquez says, Adam has an Instagram powered by Facebook.

02:06:44.000 So I was saying, I don't have Facebook on my phone.

02:06:47.000 But then Facebook bought Instagram.

02:06:49.000 And I've had Instagram on my phone for a long time.

02:06:52.000 That's right.

02:06:52.000 But now it's owned by Facebook.

02:06:55.000 They know when I poop!

02:06:56.000 Oh no!

02:06:57.000 Yes, they do.

02:06:57.000 They absolutely do.

02:06:59.000 They're tracking you, brother.

02:07:01.000 Solid Scratch says, when are you upping your game from t-shirts to beanies?

02:07:04.000 That's this guy.

02:07:05.000 He's got a... Well, we're under a lockdown.

02:07:07.000 Yeah, they actually... The company that makes beanies started making beanies again.

02:07:12.000 And I was like, oh, cool.

02:07:12.000 I would like to make a dual-colored beanie like this.

02:07:15.000 And they said, oh, we're not doing custom beanies.

02:07:17.000 We're only doing solid colors now because that's all we can do because we're shut down.

02:07:20.000 And I'm like, no!

02:07:23.000 We were this close, people.

02:07:25.000 But we're this far away still.

02:07:29.000 All right, let's see.

02:07:29.000 Jeff M says, if I cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs, I am sending all of my poop social media offices via UPS, showing social media what Brown can do for us.

02:07:39.000 That's the UPS slogan, right?

02:07:42.000 Yep, what Brown can do for you. 0.90

02:07:43.000 Fearless Soldier says, watch the hated one on YouTube.

02:07:46.000 He's a privacy guy that does tutorials.

02:07:48.000 Also, what do you think about the movie The Great Hack about Cambridge Analytica?

02:07:52.000 Never saw it?

02:07:52.000 I haven't seen it.

02:07:54.000 Um, but I know Brittany Kaiser personally. 0.99

02:07:56.000 I've known her for over a decade.

02:07:58.000 And, uh, she's actually been my roommate at one point.

02:08:02.000 Recently.

02:08:03.000 Wait, I think during that.

02:08:04.000 Oh.

02:08:04.000 Yeah.

02:08:05.000 Okay.

02:08:05.000 I actually, uh, had a bunch of her stuff for a long time.

02:08:10.000 Yeah, I, we had to throw away... Great story.

02:08:13.000 There was a mattress.

02:08:14.000 Quite the twist.

02:08:16.000 Wait, wait, think about, do we need to know this information?

02:08:19.000 It has to do with the cat.

02:08:22.000 I'll leave it there.

02:08:24.000 You know what cats do to mattresses. 1.00

02:08:25.000 Make it garbage.

02:08:28.000 Jerks.

02:08:31.000 I haven't actually seen The Great Hack, but I probably know a lot of weird stuff about this that's irrelevant.

02:08:37.000 I actually don't know a whole lot about it in terms of what actually matters in politics.

02:08:43.000 Jack says, you can turn off FB ads.

02:08:45.000 I get very few ads on FB.

02:08:47.000 Oh, cool.

02:08:48.000 I don't know anything about it.

02:08:48.000 says at least Amazon only wants to sell you stuff and uses the site's algorithm accordingly.

02:08:53.000 Google and Facebook creeps me out to no end. That I agree with. Lucas says Tim Ref, Chuck

02:08:58.000 Todd meet the press. Meet the press is the longest running TV show on the air since 1947.

02:09:04.000 It is like the New York Times of news shows. He has turned a legacy news show into a clown

02:09:08.000 show on NBC. He really has. He is laughable, laughably ignorant and naive. It is bad. I

02:09:14.000 i don't know and brutal david marcello uh... marcellus

02:09:19.000 FB tracks all the apps you use.

02:09:21.000 If you go into the settings, there is one for offline activity, and it'll show you all the apps you use.

02:09:25.000 Banking, SM, and they make a big deal about turning it off.

02:09:28.000 Wow.

02:09:29.000 Chuck Morris says, I like typing random things into Google.

02:09:32.000 I'm getting ads for horse liniment.

02:09:34.000 I live in an apartment.

02:09:35.000 Wow.

02:09:36.000 All right.

02:09:37.000 Random.

02:09:37.000 Bert says, we need you in the UK to tear apart our BS media.

02:09:42.000 Just tell Sargon.

02:09:43.000 He goes, hey, Sargon, you gotta do it.

02:09:44.000 He does it, right?

02:09:45.000 He called them dirty, dirty smear merchants.

02:09:47.000 And then everyone started using that phrase.

02:09:48.000 I love it.

02:09:48.000 Fantastic.

02:09:49.000 Dirty smear merchants.

02:09:50.000 Jeb Reed says, I got ads for guillotine, tar feathers, t-beanie, night vision goggles, ammo.

02:09:55.000 Seems Google has me nailed.

02:09:57.000 There you go.

02:09:58.000 Nikki D says, not surprised about the rocket.

02:10:01.000 Most things I buy that come from China fall apart as soon as after I use them as well.

02:10:05.000 Madamch.

02:10:07.000 Jake says, thank you for explaining Facebook's advertising algorithm.

02:10:10.000 I just started getting hip to this fact after realizing the ads were showing me things that I was only thinking about.

02:10:15.000 Wow.

02:10:16.000 Creepy.

02:10:17.000 Marcia, uh, Marcia, Marcia Levine.

02:10:19.000 Yes.

02:10:20.000 Is that, I got it right?

02:10:21.000 You got it?

02:10:21.000 Yep.

02:10:22.000 Yeah.

02:10:22.000 I'm sending this just to see if Tim remembers how to pronounce my name.

02:10:25.000 Oh, look at that.

02:10:27.000 I was close enough.

02:10:29.000 Money helps your memory, or so I've heard.

02:10:31.000 Did it work?

02:10:32.000 Cheers.

02:10:32.000 That's funny.

02:10:33.000 It did, right?

02:10:33.000 Thanks for that super chat.

02:10:34.000 What a lovely lady. 1.00

02:10:35.000 Laura Ren, thanks for becoming a member.

02:10:36.000 Thank you.

02:10:37.000 Jake says the NRC in Canada has just approved clinical trials of a potential COVID vaccine made in China to happen in Canada, a.k.a. 0.62

02:10:44.000 we're China's guinea pigs. 0.89

02:10:45.000 Great.

02:10:47.000 Matthew says, are we going to see a Tim Pool cameo in the new Tony Hawk game?

02:10:50.000 No.

02:10:51.000 That'd be cool.

02:10:53.000 I gotta make some skate videos.

02:10:54.000 Carl's Jr.

02:10:55.000 says, Brainlets ads are targeted to you, not who you watch.

02:11:01.000 I see nonsense because I anonymize myself.

02:11:04.000 Right.

02:11:04.000 Definitely.

02:11:05.000 Mark says, so China's sending the next batch of Hornets to the U.S. 0.87

02:11:09.000 in the form of rocket debris.

02:11:12.000 Purple says, driving from Colorado to New York for a funeral while listening to you guys.

02:11:15.000 Wish me luck.

02:11:16.000 We just drove across the country.

02:11:18.000 I think you'll make it.

02:11:19.000 You got this.

02:11:20.000 Let's see.

02:11:21.000 Bart Lomiege?

02:11:24.000 There is a lot of device ID tech that uses frequency around 19 kilohertz.

02:11:28.000 Also, talked with housemates about strainer for kitchen.

02:11:31.000 And in WhatsApp, 30 minutes later, we all got advertisements that is not algorithmic.

02:11:35.000 Interesting.

02:11:36.000 Maybe, maybe.

02:11:38.000 Star Wars guy says, Lydia, show your Blank 182 shirt, my favorite band. 0.87

02:11:42.000 Oh, hold on one sec.

02:11:45.000 Here we go.

02:11:45.000 You gotta stand up a little bit, come on.

02:11:47.000 Yeah, here.

02:11:47.000 Gotta give them the full...

02:11:48.000 There it is, boom!

02:11:49.000 It's pretty good, it's pretty good.

02:11:50.000 That's the name of a song.

02:11:51.000 You're the only thing that matters.

02:11:53.000 Yeah, it's called You're the Only Thing That Matters.

02:11:55.000 It's really good.

02:11:56.000 Jeremiah says, Lydia, do you want me to timestamp swears for you?

02:12:00.000 Did we swear?

02:12:00.000 No, I got this.

02:12:01.000 They didn't swear tonight.

02:12:02.000 I don't think I swore.

02:12:03.000 No, they did great tonight.

02:12:05.000 I got all the timestamps.

02:12:07.000 Oh, no, every time Tim swears.

02:12:08.000 Is that what it says?

02:12:09.000 Every time Tim swears?

02:12:10.000 Tim never swears.

02:12:10.000 Do you want me to timestamp swears for you?

02:12:12.000 Oh, OK.

02:12:13.000 Yeah.

02:12:13.000 Tim stamp.

02:12:14.000 Terrell says, Biden is having AOC to be a climate consultant.

02:12:19.000 Already wants a female VP. 1.00

02:12:21.000 He sniffs women's hair. 0.51

02:12:22.000 Is Biden building a harem?

02:12:24.000 Biden is gross.

02:12:25.000 Harem?

02:12:26.000 Steven says, the anti-aging drug was a plot point in a book series by Peter F. Hamilton.

02:12:31.000 There were people who were over a thousand years old.

02:12:33.000 Pandora's Star is a great series.

02:12:35.000 You should check it out.

02:12:36.000 Have you ever read that?

02:12:37.000 No.

02:12:38.000 It's cool, though.

02:12:39.000 Marsha says, we need to get off this mud ball before we develop extended lifetimes.

02:12:43.000 If we had the universe to populate, it wouldn't be an issue.

02:12:45.000 Yep.

02:12:46.000 That's exactly what I was thinking.

02:12:48.000 If I was immortal, I would want to search the stars, or else I would go crazy here on Earth.

02:12:53.000 Well, you can just float around.

02:12:54.000 Ten million years, you'll land somewhere.

02:12:56.000 Yeah, hopefully.

02:12:57.000 Or just keep floating forever.

02:12:59.000 We are expanding.

02:13:00.000 Yep, that's, yep.

02:13:01.000 Metheral says, so BeanieCast, why do you think old and new punks, anarchists, tend to side with authoritarian measures even though it goes against the very meaning of being punk?

02:13:09.000 I wondered this in high school.

02:13:11.000 Because they're fake and they never were punk.

02:13:12.000 Aha! 0.94

02:13:13.000 Boom! 0.99

02:13:14.000 That's it.

02:13:14.000 That's it, I know.

02:13:16.000 That's why I'm still all about liberty and rejecting this when in 2010 I had the same, you know, similar positions and have been about freedom.

02:13:24.000 Sorry if that was a little loud, everybody.

02:13:26.000 But it's like, The people you nailed it is so good.

02:13:30.000 It was pop culture.

02:13:31.000 Yeah, it was it was cool to be punk, right?

02:13:33.000 Right, they never actually I know some real punks like punk rockers in in New York, and they're serious, man I look forward to seeing this does not describe real punkers, right?

02:13:43.000 Yeah, so it is gonna be the fake ones that want to be cool.

02:13:46.000 Oh If Antifa really shows up to protest in favor of the government, it will be the funniest thing.

02:13:53.000 It'll be like... It's still kind of funny to think about it.

02:13:55.000 Like, what?

02:13:56.000 Totally.

02:13:57.000 What are they really doing?

02:13:58.000 We're anti-fascist, so we're going to defend the government controlling whether or not you're allowed to go outside.

02:14:03.000 What?

02:14:04.000 Pro-fa.

02:14:05.000 Pro-fa.

02:14:05.000 If I tweeted pro-fa... Pro-tifa was funny.

02:14:08.000 But it's anti-fa, pro-tifa.

02:14:09.000 It's just funny.

02:14:13.000 Okay, so I have bad news.

02:14:14.000 We're gonna have to speed things up.

02:14:15.000 No!

02:14:16.000 Yeah.

02:14:16.000 Oh, we're already over.

02:14:17.000 Wow.

02:14:17.000 Yeah, we're over.

02:14:18.000 Way over.

02:14:19.000 Josh in Jesus says, Tim, I have long believed the people of antediluvian times had technology as advanced as ours, if not more so.

02:14:26.000 Have you ever looked into that?

02:14:28.000 I have not.

02:14:28.000 I don't know.

02:14:29.000 Right after the flood, I think?

02:14:30.000 A flood?

02:14:31.000 Yeah.

02:14:31.000 Oh cool.

02:14:32.000 Alex Oakley says, I sent you guys a DVD called Expelled, no intelligence allowed.

02:14:36.000 I got home and realized I forgot to put in the note I wrote.

02:14:39.000 It's about the world of academia with Ben Stein.

02:14:41.000 Hope you guys enjoy it.

02:14:42.000 Cool, check it out.

02:14:43.000 Oh, cool.

02:14:44.000 Right on.

02:14:45.000 Jeffrey McCorbin says, Charlie Chaplin once said, so long as men die, liberty shall never

02:14:49.000 With that in mind, immortality could bring some unintended consequences.

02:14:53.000 Definitely.

02:14:54.000 Stormwolf says, just bought a car and said I wouldn't use tollways.

02:14:58.000 The next day, Google automatically changed the settings on maps to avoid tolls.

02:15:01.000 I was freaked.

02:15:02.000 Whoa.

02:15:03.000 That's creepy.

02:15:04.000 real every day. Conjecture equals opinion. Hypothesis equals unfalsified proposition.

02:15:10.000 Theory equals fully tested models shown to make accurate repeatable predictions.

02:15:13.000 The peak of scientific inquiry. No one develops a theory.

02:15:17.000 Cassidy Harvey says about being young forever, check out the book Future by Dmitri Glukhovsky.

02:15:24.000 Glukovsky.

02:15:26.000 Earth is so overpopulated because people don't age. 1.00

02:15:28.000 So if you have a kid, one of the parents must die off so the child can live.

02:15:32.000 Whoa.

02:15:33.000 Interesting.

02:15:33.000 Alright, we're going to start speeding things up, guys.

02:15:34.000 I apologize if we can't read your comments, but we're going over because we're getting too many awesome superchats.

02:15:39.000 There was a super chat that I saw earlier that someone got, is a tattoo artist and got two skate decks.

02:15:47.000 I saw your comment and I think we're going to have to skip it, but they were asking where we send it.

02:15:52.000 Where do they find that PO box?

02:15:54.000 Timcast.com slash donate.

02:15:56.000 So go to timcast.com slash donate.

02:15:59.000 And that'll be where you can find the PO box to send some skate decks.

02:16:02.000 Cause that was really cool.

02:16:03.000 And I appreciate that.

02:16:04.000 I think we might actually have to skip your, your super chat, but thank you.

02:16:07.000 I can actually only techdeck with my left hand for some reason.

02:16:09.000 That's weird.

02:16:10.000 Yeah, it's because I'm ambidextrous.

02:16:12.000 Oh.

02:16:12.000 Yep, so I'm lefty with techdecks.

02:16:14.000 Weirdo.

02:16:15.000 Yep.

02:16:18.000 Betafastachipa says, is it illegal to draft a person below 83 IQ?

02:16:22.000 It is illegal to draft a person below 83 IQ because there is literally no job they can do without being counterproductive. 0.95

02:16:28.000 How many people is that, you ask?

02:16:29.000 10% of the population.

02:16:30.000 Wow.

02:16:31.000 Yeah, yeah.

02:16:32.000 Rilo704 says, hey guys, some friend from work and I are going to GA Guidestones this weekend, and maybe Hatteras.

02:16:41.000 Hatteras?

02:16:42.000 NC, next week to check out UFO and pirate stuff.

02:16:45.000 Eff a lockdown, I want to see conspiracy stuff.

02:16:47.000 Nice.

02:16:48.000 It's always fun.

02:16:50.000 Chaotic says, hello from Canada, friends.

02:16:52.000 I'm grateful for the work you guys do every day, trying to bring us rational information and discussion.

02:16:56.000 I feel the fear over the authoritarian power grab, but at least you have a system to stop it.

02:17:01.000 Technically, they're turning the Constitution into Swiss cheese though, so you know.

02:17:06.000 Two Rivers Lad says, how is fascism far right?

02:17:09.000 It's an outgrowth of socialism and advocates large government bureaucracies.

02:17:13.000 I thought the right of the political compass advocated for small government and far right no government.

02:17:18.000 The conflict here is the definition of what left and right means.

02:17:21.000 There's cultural left and right, economic left and right, and the cultural left and right is where people usually refer to fascism as far right, because the cultural spectrum is progressive versus traditional.

02:17:32.000 You tend to see an overlap with the progressives wanting socialism, but there is a way to invert this.

02:17:36.000 What ends up happening is, the far left, because it tends to be both culturally left and economically left, is associated generally with the left, which confuses people when you then talk about, like, communists who, or like, Like, ultra-traditional capitalism is far-right.

02:17:54.000 It's weird and it's colloquial language that makes very little sense.

02:17:58.000 That's the easiest way to break it down.

02:18:00.000 Easiest way to explain to somebody?

02:18:01.000 Ask them what they're referring to when they say left or right.

02:18:03.000 Are they talking about American political factions, culture war factions, or traditional versus progressive, or laissez-faire versus communism?

02:18:12.000 Adam Bird says, I'm in the hospital with pneumonia, viral colitis, and fever.

02:18:16.000 They have tested me for COVID-19 three times.

02:18:18.000 All have come back negative.

02:18:19.000 They keep telling me because of your symptoms, we have to blame it on COVID-19.

02:18:22.000 Oh my gosh.

02:18:23.000 What?

02:18:24.000 Viral colitis?

02:18:25.000 It came up negative three times?

02:18:27.000 But they're like, it must be.

02:18:28.000 It must be.

02:18:29.000 Holy cow. 0.89

02:18:30.000 It's like, no, you can't, you know.

02:18:31.000 That's crazy.

02:18:32.000 Kale says, Mambis. 0.99

02:18:35.000 Mambis. 1.00

02:18:35.000 Vashtz says, let's be real. 1.00

02:18:37.000 The reason these people are complaining about the links is it's not their links.

02:18:42.000 Not that they have some problem with the link sharing, allegedly.

02:18:45.000 Right, exactly.

02:18:45.000 In reference to the BuzzFeed stuff.

02:18:47.000 Yep, exactly.

02:18:47.000 Gabriel McLeod says, Google data mines the cookies on your computer to feed into their AdSense and other advertising programs.

02:18:54.000 I have no idea.

02:18:55.000 Oh yeah, the fruit.

02:18:55.000 Yeah, I don't know.

02:18:56.000 Has told me that in some people the virus does not shed in the nasal cavity or in the back of the throat

02:19:01.000 this makes me wonder how accurate the tests are didn't some test like a

02:19:05.000 Papaya or something or a poopoo fruit or whatever was called tested positive. Oh, yeah

02:19:10.000 Yeah, yeah, right Sherry social says my liberal friend has a small business

02:19:15.000 She vented to me that their shop will close and that the small biz association screwed her over we live in CA 0.98

02:19:21.000 How do I respond if I'm more conservative love y'all?

02:19:24.000 Look man, if people are still gonna vote for these same people, then what do you do? I give you

02:19:28.000 You reap what you sow, you know?

02:19:29.000 I don't know.

02:19:31.000 Yeah.

02:19:32.000 Douchebaggins! 1.00

02:19:32.000 Sorry. 1.00

02:19:32.000 Say sorry. 1.00

02:19:33.000 Douchebaggins. 1.00

02:19:35.000 California has the largest population of homeless of any state in the U.S.

02:19:38.000 They are largely not social distancing or wearing masks.

02:19:41.000 Why don't we see a massive outbreak of the Voldemort virus among the homeless population?

02:19:45.000 Very good question.

02:19:47.000 I thought we were.

02:19:48.000 At one homeless shelter, we saw an outbreak.

02:19:50.000 Yeah, and most of them were asymptomatic, I think.

02:19:52.000 It's because they're outside.

02:19:53.000 That really is it.

02:19:54.000 The vitamin D. It's the vitamin D, and it's like, they're not necessarily social distancing, but they're not huddled together in cafes and offices.

02:20:02.000 You know what?

02:20:02.000 They probably are really resilient against a lot of bacteria and viruses, though.

02:20:06.000 That's true.

02:20:06.000 They're living on the street.

02:20:08.000 They're engaging with millions of people all of the time.

02:20:13.000 They're not engaging with a lot of people.

02:20:14.000 They're probably prepped in strong, resilient bodies.

02:20:16.000 No joke!

02:20:17.000 They're not engaging with a lot of people.

02:20:18.000 Well, I mean, some people are.

02:20:20.000 Like, hey, do you have any money?

02:20:20.000 Hey, do you have any money?

02:20:21.000 Hey, do you have any money?

02:20:22.000 That's true.

02:20:23.000 Maybe.

02:20:24.000 It depends on the homeless person, I guess.

02:20:25.000 So I think one of the things is regular people go to Starbucks.

02:20:28.000 Tons of people.

02:20:28.000 Everyone touching everything.

02:20:29.000 They go to office.

02:20:30.000 Everyone touching everything.

02:20:30.000 True.

02:20:31.000 Homeless person outside.

02:20:33.000 Sunlight disinfectant.

02:20:34.000 Yep.

02:20:34.000 With their shopping cart walking around.

02:20:36.000 They're not in those environments.

02:20:38.000 It's true.

02:20:41.000 Big ol' jump.

02:20:41.000 I just saw that, yeah.

02:20:43.000 Thanks, everybody.

02:20:44.000 Appreciate you guys.

02:20:44.000 I gotta figure out, uh... Where we were.

02:20:47.000 Yup, yup.

02:20:47.000 Yeah, that's the thing.

02:20:48.000 We got tons, tons and tons of superchats.

02:20:51.000 There are so many.

02:20:52.000 There we go.

02:20:52.000 Found it!

02:20:53.000 TheGrizzly says, Last point.

02:20:55.000 Violence between the urban and rural areas is inevitable due to the culture differences.

02:20:58.000 The right is more used to and willing to resort to violence rather than the left.

02:21:03.000 They are more willing to start violence.

02:21:05.000 The right is?

02:21:06.000 The left is more willing to start it.

02:21:08.000 They just can't go that far, I think.

02:21:10.000 Lauren Wren says, Tim, I have enjoyed sharing in your journey.

02:21:13.000 Been a fan since Occupy Wall Street.

02:21:14.000 Also, I got my Patriot supply.

02:21:16.000 Hubby and I had creamy alfredo and kielbasa for dinner.

02:21:19.000 Thanks and love you men.

02:21:20.000 Well, you're not supposed to eat it right now.

02:21:22.000 You're supposed to save it.

02:21:23.000 Sure, you gotta try it.

02:21:24.000 But I'm glad you got it.

02:21:25.000 We haven't touched ours.

02:21:26.000 We've got just the thing sitting in the closet.

02:21:28.000 But we did go to the store and buy a bunch of beans and stuff.

02:21:30.000 We have been eating, you know, through it.

02:21:32.000 Because I'm not, you know, anticipating an apocalypse for the most part.

02:21:35.000 Big Mitch says, pool and crickler.

02:21:37.000 I'm a tattooer and actually just ordered two decks.

02:21:39.000 Oh, that's the one you mentioned.

02:21:40.000 Oh, you found his?

02:21:41.000 There it is.

02:21:42.000 Nice, there it is.

02:21:43.000 Timcast.com slash donut is a P.O.

02:21:45.000 box.

02:21:45.000 Send us whatever you like.

02:21:46.000 What is it, Big Mitch?

02:21:48.000 Big Mitch!

02:21:48.000 Thank you, Big Mitch.

02:21:49.000 We will get the boards.

02:21:50.000 Nice.

02:21:51.000 Blackrockbeacon says, I share all your videos and Scanner, Styx, Sargon, and other independents.

02:21:57.000 It's time for the rise of new media.

02:21:58.000 I'm doing everything I can to support you and other independent journalists and commentators on Mines, etc.

02:22:02.000 Keep it up.

02:22:03.000 Appreciate it.

02:22:03.000 Nice.

02:22:04.000 Mr. Paul R says, kudos to surpassing Young Turks in growth in under a year.

02:22:09.000 You separate sense from nonsense, is why people gravitate towards you.

02:22:12.000 TP.

02:22:13.000 Keanu Reeves is Johnny Demonic.

02:22:15.000 Jack and still don't like Fredo.

02:22:19.000 What is it?

02:22:19.000 Jack and still don't like Fredo Cuomo is fake.

02:22:21.000 Wuhan flu Greta expert and what a ho joke. 1.00

02:22:25.000 Alright.

02:22:26.000 Jack Daw says, when will you have Stefan Molyneux on the show?

02:22:31.000 I don't know?

02:22:33.000 I don't know.

02:22:34.000 I don't know a lot about him.

02:22:36.000 I met him one time, but I don't really follow him all that much.

02:22:38.000 I did watch some of the video he put out on the Arbery case.

02:22:41.000 Clear, thanks for becoming a member.

02:22:42.000 Thank you.

02:22:43.000 I hesitate on the guest thing because it's like, I think we might not even have guests moving forward since the COVID thing kind of just broke everything.

02:22:50.000 Yeah.

02:22:50.000 And I'm like, I don't even know.

02:22:51.000 Like, should I?

02:22:52.000 Yeah, I don't even know what we're going to do.

02:22:53.000 But we will review movies.

02:22:56.000 Oh, yes.

02:22:56.000 I cannot wait.

02:22:57.000 I can't wait.

02:22:59.000 We can go to the drive-in.

02:23:00.000 That's becoming a thing.

02:23:01.000 We can review Trolls World Tour right now, man.

02:23:04.000 Oh no.

02:23:04.000 Yeah, it's made all this money, it's on demand.

02:23:07.000 I just lost all of my enthusiasm.

02:23:08.000 I know, right?

02:23:10.000 Alright, let's read, let's read, let's read.

02:23:12.000 A handy redneck says, suggestion, next time you have news overload, like you seem to have had yesterday, why not just do an AdamCast deep dive on a non-news subject, just saying, we like you folks. 0.80

02:23:21.000 Well, on that, I mean, I guess that, like, can I take this one?

02:23:24.000 Yeah.

02:23:25.000 Well, so I found out I usually when I was doing AdamCast, I would come up with the subjects myself.

02:23:31.000 Neither of them were here.

02:23:32.000 And both we all do story a story discussion before the show.

02:23:37.000 So it's a lot easier.

02:23:38.000 It's not just on me.

02:23:39.000 I mean, Ian actually was coming up with some ideas, too.

02:23:41.000 we're bouncing off each other but I found out. Pretty much like 3040

02:23:46.000 minutes right for the the start of the show so I didn't have anything. Ready and I wasn't. But I mean.

02:23:53.000 Enough people have suggested this so that I should just have

02:23:57.000 a deep dive ready to go like someone to really do an episode on. Which I probably will. Yep so

02:24:03.000 that's that's actually on yeah. That's actually what we figured because

02:24:08.000 it wasn't it wasn't news overload necessarily it was that there

02:24:10.000 was like. The stories were all extremely weak so it required

02:24:14.000 a lot of research. And it was yeah it's a Yeah, exactly.

02:24:19.000 And so then the general idea was, like, that's a day that, you know, when I'm, like, collapsed on the floor and, like, drenched in sweat, Adam can just, you know, run an Atomcast or something.

02:24:27.000 That's what we'll probably do.

02:24:28.000 We'll probably do it.

02:24:29.000 Yep.

02:24:30.000 Josh Separate says, Arbery case.

02:24:31.000 The electrician says, isn't good to be in under construction home.

02:24:35.000 If Georgia has duty to, uh, duty to retreat, Arbery has problem due to charging the guy with gun when there was another way to run.

02:24:42.000 That's, I know, and nobody wants to bring that point up.

02:24:45.000 Arbery didn't have to run into, in their direction.

02:24:48.000 Didn't he run right up to them?

02:24:50.000 So the guy is in the street.

02:24:51.000 He turns right and goes around the truck and then attacks him.

02:24:55.000 I don't know.

02:24:55.000 I don't know, man.

02:24:56.000 I don't.

02:24:57.000 But the left is always lying about these things.

02:24:59.000 Like, it's Jesse Smollett.

02:25:00.000 I just don't know enough stuff.

02:25:01.000 Yeah.

02:25:02.000 And it's like everything that they say, it doesn't really fit the narrative of what I've heard.

02:25:06.000 So.

02:25:08.000 Like Fry Like Fry says Adam.

02:25:10.000 What up?

02:25:10.000 When do you plan on doing your own show?

02:25:12.000 Also thanks for talking about chow cheese in previous episode.

02:25:15.000 I am lactose intolerant and haven't had milk products in a long time.

02:25:18.000 Oh, I hope you tried it because it is incredible.

02:25:20.000 I actually suggested this to a few people and people are hitting me up saying it is so good.

02:25:27.000 I'm almost actually scared now that I'm not going to find it when I go to the store.

02:25:31.000 So don't buy it around me, but buy it because it's really good.

02:25:35.000 It is, it is.

02:25:36.000 I made a grilled cheese with it the first time you got it.

02:25:38.000 You haven't had dairy in a while now, right?

02:25:39.000 No, we have today.

02:25:40.000 Oh, you did.

02:25:41.000 Yeah, so we still have cheese.

02:25:42.000 Oh, right, right.

02:25:42.000 We're gonna get rid of it.

02:25:43.000 You're still eating the leftovers.

02:25:45.000 I'm trying.

02:25:46.000 Residual cheese.

02:25:47.000 I'm thinking of something kind of paleo, but I'm like, probably not necessarily.

02:25:51.000 But it's like, how can I just eat better?

02:25:54.000 So it's like we had mashed potatoes and salmon today.

02:25:56.000 I really got to start my own show.

02:25:58.000 Yeah, yeah, of course you do, man.

02:25:59.000 Of course you do.

02:26:00.000 Thank you.

02:26:00.000 I like Fry, I like Fry.

02:26:01.000 I appreciate that.

02:26:02.000 Oh, there it is!

02:26:03.000 Boom! 0.99

02:26:04.000 Right, I think it's a manslaughter case.

02:26:05.000 is I'm conservative and don't always agree with you, and that's okay.

02:26:25.000 I watch all your videos.

02:26:26.000 Keep up the good work.

02:26:26.000 You are doing a great service to the American people.

02:26:29.000 I just complain about my feelings on the internet, man.

02:26:31.000 It's Fathead, Mr. Poole.

02:26:33.000 Given the pandemic and the current polarization of government today, do you think that this is an excuse to hit the reset button on our current democracy?

02:26:39.000 If so, would it be a quick restart or a hard reboot?

02:26:42.000 I don't, I don't, I don't know.

02:26:44.000 I don't think so.

02:26:44.000 I mean, we just need the courts to uphold the Constitution.

02:26:48.000 Yeah.

02:26:49.000 But short of them, like them, they're not doing it.

02:26:51.000 What do we do?

02:26:51.000 Right.

02:26:52.000 I don't know.

02:26:53.000 I'm not, I'm not smart enough.

02:26:54.000 Boogaloo. 0.61

02:26:55.000 No.

02:26:56.000 That's a good motto.

02:26:57.000 I like that.

02:26:58.000 It reminds me of the Patriot when Mel Gibson says, you know, mark my words, this war will not be fought in the frontier.

02:27:06.000 It will be fought in your homes, in your towns, in your schools.

02:27:10.000 People don't realize how bad it would be.

02:27:12.000 You do not want that.

02:27:13.000 Nope.

02:27:13.000 Scott Poland says, just hopping in, but have you talked about Justin Amash?

02:27:17.000 He is a viable candidate that will pull in Democrats and reluctant Trumpers.

02:27:20.000 Worth looking into?

02:27:21.000 Nah, no thank you.

02:27:23.000 Oh my gosh, your face, Lydia. 0.99

02:27:25.000 I'm making faces too.

02:27:26.000 No.

02:27:26.000 You seem absolutely disgusted.

02:27:28.000 I voted for a third party candidate in 2016 and I will probably never vote for a third party candidate again.

02:27:34.000 Why?

02:27:34.000 Because it was just nothing.

02:27:35.000 And it seems like every third party candidate is kind of like that.

02:27:38.000 Tossing a pebble in the ocean.

02:27:39.000 Yeah, that's nonsense.

02:27:42.000 Saint Miles says, Hey Tim, Adam, and Lydia, because this is the most intellectual, entertaining, and calm conversations, I opened my 25-year-old Glen Morin, and I'm now having a glass with my feet up.

02:27:55.000 Man, that sounds good.

02:27:57.000 I like the Glens.

02:27:58.000 They're good.

02:27:59.000 They're good whiskeys.

02:28:00.000 Have a sip on me.

02:28:02.000 Or for me.

02:28:03.000 Russian hockey talent agency says give this to long-haired guy, please Not it.

02:28:08.000 That would be me.

02:28:09.000 Yeah, I'll take I'll accept it in cash, bro Cody says Tim moved to New Hampshire You can buy chickens and guns the same store live live free or die.

02:28:17.000 I do like the idea of getting chickens, man All right.

02:28:20.000 Here we are The Brooklyn Way says Trump curved the press curved the press the way Kim deal curd Jack's, Florida in 1989-1990 straight-up walked off the stage and he was right to do so good for him.

02:28:32.000 Yeah, he was David says, Tim, talk about the breakdown of the global

02:28:36.000 food supply and the regional wars that are about to start. We need to know the cost of not exporting

02:28:40.000 our surplus food, a billion dead in the next year. I hope not.

02:28:45.000 More the reason why we need to open this economy back up. 0.93

02:28:49.000 But the crack is already there.

02:28:51.000 So it's like... Yeah, it's the hesitation.

02:28:53.000 So it's like, to catch it up, eventually there's still going to be that gap that we've been closed for so long.

02:28:58.000 When we shut down the economy, we took the rope and we whipped it, and now that wave is traveling all the way down.

02:29:04.000 So even if we start it back up, the wave is still going to hit.

02:29:07.000 But the longer we wait, the bigger that space is going to be.

02:29:11.000 Yep, it's gonna get bad.

02:29:13.000 Furby Slayer says, in case you missed it, in case you missed Rogan and Elon,

02:29:18.000 Elon confirms any symptom matching COVID is counted even testing negative,

02:29:22.000 includes death counts, means most deaths, most deaths breathing weakness,

02:29:26.000 also confirmed money incentive.

02:29:28.000 That's true.

02:29:29.000 USA Today confirmed this.

02:29:31.000 They get more money if they have COVID patients.
