Transcript

00:00:02.000 Tonight, leaked documents released to the nation reveal a coordinated program of domestic counterinsurgency against Antifa.
00:00:15.000 We can't afford real music, so we just gotta go... Joe Biden.
00:00:22.000 Yeah, apparently this program, it's called PACT or something.
00:00:25.000 It's a joint effort between federal agencies all over the country.
00:00:29.000 The documents that have been released by the nation come, the nation is, it's like a lefty publication.
00:00:34.000 So they're, they're very serious, like Donald Trump's Gestapo.
00:00:38.000 You know, that kind of attitude.
00:00:40.000 But it does show that there is a coordinated effort since the first, following the signing of Donald Trump's executive order to protect statues and all that stuff, to target far-left insurgency.
00:00:50.000 I mean, to be fair, I think the language of domestic counterinsurgency comes from the nation.
00:00:55.000 I think CBP and ICE and the marshals were just kind of like general law enforcement.
00:01:03.000 Right.
00:01:04.000 But the left wants to make it really spicy, so they're saying Gestapo and counterinsurgency.
00:01:09.000 They call themselves revolutionaries.
00:01:12.000 Because that's what they're doing!
00:01:13.000 I mean, day 48 now of what's going on in Portland.
00:01:15.000 But we got some news, too.
00:01:16.000 Apparently there was a ton of arrests the other day.
00:01:18.000 They really are cracking down hard.
00:01:20.000 We could talk a lot about this.
00:01:21.000 We got some other stories, too.
00:01:23.000 We got... I'm kind of furious.
00:01:27.000 I don't blame you.
00:01:28.000 I was getting really triggered earlier.
00:01:31.000 I wanted to title this episode, like, F the Media.
00:01:35.000 Just full on.
00:01:36.000 I did tweet about it.
00:01:38.000 I wouldn't have been upset.
00:01:39.000 There's a story right now where Trump was on Fox News and he said to Chris Wallace, who's one of their anchors, one of their journalists, that Biden wants to defund the police.
00:01:48.000 And Wallace goes, no, sir, he does not.
00:01:51.000 And Trump's like, let's go get it.
00:01:53.000 They couldn't find the evidence in the Bernie Sanders pact.
00:01:57.000 And it's a stupid story anyway, because it's not like it has to be in writing.
00:02:00.000 In fact, it's in an interview.
00:02:02.000 Joe Biden says he does agree with redirecting their funding, which is the literal definition of what they've claimed defund is.
00:02:08.000 So I just debunked this.
00:02:10.000 Man, it is so difficult to understand what's happening in this country, because I can pull up like 50 stories.
00:02:16.000 AP, false.
00:02:17.000 Joe Biden does not want to defund the police.
00:02:19.000 Then you find another story.
00:02:20.000 It's like, true.
00:02:21.000 Joe Biden does want to defund the police.
00:02:23.000 So we're going to break this down definitively and you can just see it's going to be an excellent media literacy 101 course for everybody who doesn't understand how the media is lying to you.
00:02:34.000 And just before we started the show, Adam was talking about, you know, he's on Facebook trying to explain why he thinks Biden's in the bag for China.
00:02:41.000 And how do you prove it?
00:02:42.000 Because you've got 50 million out of context, deceptive, falsely framed stories Well, not even that.
00:02:48.000 All I said was, I posted about what's going on in China with the camps that we're finding out about or that we've known about for a long time.
00:02:59.000 They've been going on for a long time.
00:03:00.000 There was an article, I forget who I posted it from, but it's talking about how it's been going on for 20 years.
00:03:07.000 And I'm like, this is what's going on in China.
00:03:08.000 I like Trump because he's trying to cut out China from our lives and try to bring it back here.
00:03:15.000 And Biden wants to cozy up with them.
00:03:17.000 And people, of course, freaked out on that.
00:03:19.000 And they're like, no, Trump's just saying that.
00:03:22.000 It's like the Obama administration was spearheading the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
00:03:22.000 Can you prove it?
00:03:27.000 OK, I can't read you every page and mention every country and the goals.
00:03:32.000 They claim their goals were noble.
00:03:33.000 The left wing activists really opposed this.
00:03:36.000 Biden was the vice president at the time.
00:03:38.000 I'd be really willing to bet that he would enter us into a free trade agreement with China, which would incentivize the moving of our factories back to China.
00:03:44.000 It's just that simple.
00:03:45.000 There are a lot more complexities to it.
00:03:48.000 But anyway, the point is, how are you supposed to explain this to regular people
00:03:51.000 when the media is just, oh, man, I'm going to show you this because I really want
00:03:55.000 to just I hate the media, man.
00:03:57.000 Me, too. And you know what?
00:03:59.000 I walk that back a little bit.
00:04:00.000 It's it's like they're on the ground sort of.
00:04:04.000 Like, at a ground level.
00:04:04.000 Like, they see a statement come out and they just write it and they walk away.
00:04:10.000 All good here, everybody!
00:04:11.000 That's the quote, and we're not gonna provide any context.
00:04:14.000 You know, the journalists are supposed to help you understand what's happening in the world.
00:04:17.000 Just taking a random string of words from somebody and not explaining what it means is ridiculous.
00:04:20.000 It's not journalism.
00:04:21.000 And it's not only that, it's a whole story that they write from that one sentence.
00:04:26.000 They take that out of it, and then they go, alright, well, how much can we elaborate on this?
00:04:32.000 It's so much better.
00:04:33.000 Then they start pulling the tweets of random resistance Democrats on Twitter, and they make a, here's how everyone reacted to Trump saying he hates science, and then you have a bunch of people being like, yo, Trump's so dumb!
00:04:45.000 And it's like, oh no.
00:04:48.000 But it'll be fun.
00:04:49.000 It'll be fun.
00:04:50.000 And we got some other stuff, too.
00:04:51.000 We actually have the mainstream media waking up to the fact that woke social justice nonsense is literally racist.
00:04:57.000 I'm glad to see it.
00:04:58.000 New York Mag.
00:04:59.000 Of all people, a guy with raging Trump derangement syndrome is like, hey, wait a minute.
00:05:04.000 That's pretty racist.
00:05:05.000 This woke stuff sounds like literal white supremacy.
00:05:07.000 I'm like, you just figured it out.
00:05:09.000 That's great.
00:05:09.000 I'm glad there's some wheels still working in there, buddy.
00:05:13.000 You know what?
00:05:13.000 I wonder if it's politically expedient, though.
00:05:17.000 They try and wield this power of the far left to hurt Trump to cause chaos.
00:05:22.000 And then once it gets close to the election, they go, oh, now we understand why it's bad.
00:05:27.000 Now that it's hurting us.
00:05:30.000 That's what I said.
00:05:31.000 As soon as it starts hitting the elites, they're going to change their mind.
00:05:34.000 Well, this is, these are the liberal elites.
00:05:35.000 They're signing this Harper's Harper's letter like, Oh no, don't cancel me.
00:05:39.000 No, but I think they're hoping that Joe Biden gets elected and then they can get rid of the far left.
00:05:39.000 Yep.
00:05:45.000 That's what I was saying.
00:05:45.000 Yep.
00:05:46.000 They're trying to wield that power thinking they can control it and they can't.
00:05:48.000 So they're going to try and cast in the fires of Mount Doom.
00:05:51.000 Biden's speech about bring back better or something.
00:05:54.000 And it's like, or buy America.
00:05:55.000 Is that what he said?
00:05:56.000 I don't know.
00:05:57.000 It's basically like he's trying to cater to the Trump fans.
00:06:00.000 And everyone's just like, who are you talking to right now?
00:06:03.000 This face right here?
00:06:04.000 This is the face of the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
00:06:07.000 He's like, the second in command for the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
00:06:09.000 No, this guy's not gonna buy American.
00:06:12.000 He's gonna get in and be like, look fat, we gotta have more factories in China!
00:06:16.000 Your job, China.
00:06:19.000 Which one?
00:06:19.000 Oh, what?
00:06:20.000 Oh, I moved it.
00:06:21.000 His.
00:06:21.000 You're a lying, dark-faced pony soldier.
00:06:23.000 I wanted to say it to you.
00:06:25.000 Oh, you didn't.
00:06:25.000 I would have pressed that button.
00:06:26.000 Well, you gotta, we gotta get ahead of this.
00:06:27.000 If I had the ability to press, I don't have my soundboard yet.
00:06:29.000 Forget it.
00:06:30.000 I'll have my soundboard soon.
00:06:32.000 It's gonna be fun.
00:06:33.000 Ladies and gentlemen, it is imperative that you heed these words.
00:06:38.000 Smash the like button.
00:06:39.000 You better smash that like button.
00:06:41.000 Smash it.
00:06:42.000 Smash it.
00:06:43.000 I took a break today, actually.
00:06:45.000 Well, I didn't.
00:06:46.000 I took a two-hour break.
00:06:49.000 A two-hour break?
00:06:50.000 That was my break.
00:06:50.000 Well, we didn't go skating today, and I was like, I'm just going to go for a drive.
00:06:53.000 I'm going to go for a drive and listen to some music.
00:06:56.000 Oh, is that what you did?
00:06:57.000 We were like, Adam's gone.
00:06:58.000 I just went for a drive.
00:06:59.000 I was just like, yeah, this is nice.
00:07:03.000 Not thinking.
00:07:05.000 Oh man, but it was good.
00:07:06.000 It felt good.
00:07:07.000 I got myself some nice whiskey, actually.
00:07:10.000 Quality whiskey.
00:07:11.000 I had to drive quite far for it.
00:07:13.000 Really?
00:07:13.000 This is the Ron Swanson of whiskey.
00:07:16.000 It's the Ron Swanson of whiskey.
00:07:17.000 What is it?
00:07:18.000 Lagavulin.
00:07:22.000 Those who watch Parks and Rec will know what that is.
00:07:25.000 I haven't tried it yet.
00:07:26.000 I've never tried it, but I popped it open, took a smell.
00:07:29.000 Wow, it smells good.
00:07:31.000 It's very up my alley.
00:07:32.000 I'm very excited to try that later on tonight before we jam.
00:07:36.000 Yes, that's right.
00:07:36.000 We're gonna, uh, make sure you subscribe, hit the notification bell, hit that like button, get in your super chats if you'd like.
00:07:42.000 We try to read as many as we can, but we certainly can't read everybody.
00:07:45.000 But, uh, after the show tonight, so around 10, we're gonna jam out.
00:07:48.000 We just, it's Friday night.
00:07:49.000 So, you know, we're all- Friday night jams.
00:07:51.000 We're all still kind of sort of locked down and they're probably gonna lock it down again.
00:07:54.000 So you can't go anywhere.
00:07:56.000 So you might as well just sit here and listen to us play music after the show.
00:07:59.000 Yeah, so we're here to provide more entertainment after the news.
00:08:05.000 After the depression.
00:08:06.000 After the depression.
00:08:08.000 Our show is The Great Depression.
00:08:10.000 Let's read this story!
00:08:11.000 No, we're smashing through The Great Depression.
00:08:13.000 Smash that like button.
00:08:14.000 Check this out.
00:08:15.000 We got the story from The Nation.
00:08:16.000 Border Patrol responsible for Portland arrest.
00:08:19.000 An internal memo obtained exclusively by The Nation details a coordinated program of domestic counterinsurgency.
00:08:27.000 Man, that sounds cool.
00:08:29.000 That sounds so cool.
00:08:29.000 Yeah.
00:08:29.000 Yeah.
00:08:31.000 When in reality- They nailed that.
00:08:32.000 Let me decontextualize that.
00:08:35.000 Re-contextualize it.
00:08:37.000 Federal officers are going to arrest whiny, progressive, upper middle class kids.
00:08:43.000 That are throwing bricks at federal buildings.
00:08:45.000 Yeah.
00:08:46.000 And trying to light it on fire.
00:08:48.000 I think the reason they write it that way, and I'm more than happy to use the language, is because it sounds fun and exciting!
00:08:53.000 Now granted, these guys are nuts.
00:08:55.000 They're trying to bash people over the head with hammers, so... Yeah.
00:08:57.000 Yeah, I think it's fair to say... Like, I think what's interesting about the framing of it is that it's positive for the federal law enforcement.
00:09:04.000 To literally call Antifa insurgency justifies what the feds are doing.
00:09:09.000 That's a good point.
00:09:10.000 Yeah, it's kind of interesting.
00:09:11.000 Let's read a little bit, and I'll just show you the straight documents.
00:09:11.000 Yeah.
00:09:14.000 But more importantly, look at this image.
00:09:15.000 This is cool.
00:09:16.000 It's like, what is this?
00:09:17.000 Is that an actual photo?
00:09:18.000 I mean, what I see, before we even get into it, reading that title, you know what I think most people are thinking?
00:09:26.000 Finally.
00:09:26.000 Cool.
00:09:28.000 Yes.
00:09:29.000 Awesome.
00:09:29.000 End it.
00:09:29.000 Please.
00:09:30.000 Stop this.
00:09:31.000 It's a massive PR weapon for them.
00:09:34.000 They are milking this to the most absurd degree.
00:09:35.000 It's exactly the trap that was described.
00:09:38.000 And now we're seeing all the Democrats, from mayors, senators, all the resistance people.
00:09:43.000 Like, dude, these videos out of Portland probably have a collective 15 plus million views.
00:09:49.000 Yeah, it's going crazy.
00:09:50.000 Of which side, though?
00:09:51.000 Of Antifa destroying stuff?
00:09:53.000 Antifa being the good guys.
00:09:54.000 Being the good guy, exactly.
00:09:55.000 Being victimized and oppressed.
00:09:56.000 Pushing that out.
00:09:57.000 Yeah, that's bad.
00:09:59.000 That's very, very bad for Trump and law enforcement, because they're going to use this.
00:10:04.000 And so a lot of people have said, like, what should the feds do?
00:10:07.000 Should they back off?
00:10:09.000 Tough call.
00:10:10.000 But you know what I'm gonna say?
00:10:11.000 If the feds keep cleaning up the mess for these Democrat city mayors, then these people in the cities will keep voting for them.
00:10:19.000 It's like when you have a kid having a temper tantrum, and the parent just keeps giving them whatever they want, the kid's never gonna stop.
00:10:19.000 That's a good point.
00:10:25.000 So these people come out, they destroy the city, they start romping about starting fires, tearing down statues, and the Portland government goes, we're out.
00:10:33.000 It's all you, bye.
00:10:33.000 Yep.
00:10:34.000 And then what happens?
00:10:36.000 The federal law enforcement says, okay, I guess we're gonna have to arrest these guys.
00:10:39.000 Occupying army.
00:10:41.000 Let's read a little bit.
00:10:43.000 The nation, right, so mind you, the nation is very left biased.
00:10:47.000 Very important to understand, but they're the only one.
00:10:49.000 This is their exclusive, you know, document release.
00:10:51.000 So let's see how they frame things.
00:10:53.000 They say, for days, federal agents in unmarked cars have reportedly been snatching Portland protesters
00:10:59.000 off the streets.
00:11:00.000 That's right, snatching Portland protesters.
00:11:04.000 Already, already.
00:11:05.000 We just gotta fix it.
00:11:06.000 They're detaining rioters.
00:11:10.000 I'm not trying to be biased against anybody.
00:11:12.000 They're literally people wearing masks and helmets, throwing things at cops.
00:11:16.000 And trying to light fires.
00:11:18.000 Literally lighting fires.
00:11:19.000 Yeah.
00:11:19.000 Yeah.
00:11:20.000 No, they are lighting fires.
00:11:21.000 Right.
00:11:21.000 Exactly.
00:11:22.000 Protesters.
00:11:23.000 Oh, man.
00:11:24.000 But I'm telling you, man, when these videos go viral and you don't see any of that and you just see a dude putting his hands up and they're like, look at these peaceful protesters being being, you know, black bagged by unmarked Gestapo.
00:11:37.000 Regular people see them like, whoa, because they don't know what happened.
00:11:39.000 Right.
00:11:40.000 I got some crazy for you guys, though.
00:11:41.000 We got we got to talk about this.
00:11:44.000 Some people, so here's the context, right?
00:11:46.000 They mention that the federal agents are, you know, snatching up these protesters, because a video went viral, a couple of them, where a van pulls up, some guys jump out, and they're wearing, like, DHS patches and police, but they're in, like, full camo, and they walk up, and a guy puts his hand up, hands up, and this woman's like, use your words, use your words!
00:12:02.000 The feds grab the guy, bring him in the van, take him away.
00:12:06.000 According to one of these stories, one of these guys, it might be the same guy, not sure, was questioned for about an hour and a half before he was released.
00:12:12.000 I didn't realize this.
00:12:13.000 I should have realized this.
00:12:15.000 It's my fault.
00:12:16.000 A lot of people are saying they were snatching up an informant.
00:12:20.000 That's why they weren't actually arrested.
00:12:23.000 During Occupy Wall Street, there was somebody that most people, I would say, bordering on almost confirmed, there was somebody that everybody was like, we have reason to believe this person is a confidential informant for the police.
00:12:37.000 For a variety of reasons.
00:12:38.000 I'm gonna keep it private because I don't want anybody to, you know, bring this person up.
00:12:42.000 But I remember one time, when I was at Occupy, I was getting off a train a few blocks away, and I watched, I saw the dude standing on the corner, and then the squad car next to him, two cops just grabbed him, and he's like, no, no, what, what?
00:12:54.000 And they arrested him.
00:12:55.000 And I was like, whoa.
00:12:56.000 I just watched this dude get arrested.
00:12:58.000 For what?
00:12:59.000 So I go to the park, and I'm like, yo, I just saw this guy get arrested.
00:13:02.000 And they're like, yeah, so did we.
00:13:04.000 And I was like, you did?
00:13:06.000 Because I was just three blocks away.
00:13:09.000 No, right here.
00:13:10.000 Wait a minute.
00:13:12.000 And so what apparently happened was they arrested him.
00:13:15.000 They arrested him?
00:13:16.000 In front of everybody.
00:13:17.000 In front of everybody.
00:13:18.000 And then when they were dropping, like, they drove him around, asked him, like, what's going on?
00:13:22.000 What are you doing?
00:13:23.000 And then when they were going to drop him off is when I walked up and I was like, hey, and then they grabbed him again, like, oh, like, he recognized him.
00:13:31.000 And so apparently after the fact, people were like, hey, we heard you got arrested.
00:13:34.000 Yeah, I was.
00:13:35.000 No, no, we heard you got arrested twice in like 20 minutes.
00:13:37.000 No, I don't know what you're talking about.
00:13:40.000 So when this story comes out, where you see a guy walking in the street, and the cops jump out and carry him to the car, and he's like, whoa, whoa, oh no!
00:13:46.000 Oh no, they got me!
00:13:48.000 That's a good point.
00:13:49.000 That way they can bring him in, and he can say, alright, here's what they're doing, here's what they said, here's what I heard from these people, and they're like, alright man, good job, buddy.
00:13:55.000 Good, you know, good job, officer.
00:13:57.000 Officer so-and-so, yeah.
00:13:59.000 And then he's like, I'm gonna go back out there, we'll just, you know, you guys detained me, I'll complain.
00:14:03.000 Use your words!
00:14:04.000 We love you!
00:14:05.000 So that could be.
00:14:07.000 It could be a plant.
00:14:08.000 It could be, you know, informant.
00:14:09.000 Keep that in mind.
00:14:10.000 We don't know for sure though, but this kind of distrust among these far leftists is, it runs deep.
00:14:16.000 The reason these rumors are popping up is because they're the ones probably saying it.
00:14:19.000 Why weren't you charged with any crimes?
00:14:20.000 Right.
00:14:21.000 Why were you brought in and cut loose?
00:14:23.000 All of us got arrested and the cops know this and they could pull people in specifically for this reason, sowing distrust.
00:14:29.000 Well, I don't know.
00:14:29.000 At the same time, we got the guy who punched the police chief in New York City and was released with no bail.
00:14:37.000 Well, I think that's bail reform.
00:14:39.000 That's so insane, dude.
00:14:40.000 He punched the guy in the face.
00:14:43.000 Like, what?
00:14:46.000 I don't understand.
00:14:47.000 I don't get it.
00:14:47.000 Hey, 2020's been fun, huh?
00:14:49.000 Yeah.
00:14:50.000 Well, check this out.
00:14:50.000 Let me just pull up the actual documents.
00:14:53.000 So these are apparently leaked to the nation.
00:14:56.000 And I gotta admit, upon looking at them, it's quite boring.
00:14:59.000 It does not paint this picture of an action movie counterinsurgency.
00:15:03.000 It's literally them being like, Donald Trump has signed an executive order to protect statues and federal facilities.
00:15:09.000 We'll be deploying law enforcement to protect federal facilities.
00:15:13.000 Right.
00:15:13.000 It's literally like... Exactly as he said.
00:15:16.000 But not even that.
00:15:17.000 It's like, police officers, go police.
00:15:20.000 There you go.
00:15:21.000 And they're like, Trump has launched a counterinsurgency.
00:15:24.000 And like, they really view themselves as insurrectionists, like revolutionaries.
00:15:28.000 Remember, they're the resistance.
00:15:30.000 I know.
00:15:30.000 I'm so cringy.
00:15:32.000 I'm so, I'm so deeply offended by them calling themselves the resistance.
00:15:36.000 Yeah.
00:15:37.000 Like this, you know, 50 year old, five foot four fat balding dude who thinks he's a resistance warrior because he sits on the computer and complains about Trump all day.
00:15:44.000 Like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:15:45.000 In his air conditioning basement.
00:15:47.000 The dudes that were, like, planting bombs to take out Nazis were the resistance.
00:15:50.000 You're some dude sitting in his room complaining that the Orange Man is bad again.
00:15:53.000 Yep.
00:15:54.000 Or, posting about this.
00:15:56.000 Check this out.
00:15:57.000 Public Affairs Guidance.
00:15:59.000 CBP support to protect federal facilities and property.
00:16:03.000 They say, on June 26, the President issued an executive order protecting American monuments,
00:16:08.000 memorials, and statues and combating recent criminal activity.
00:16:11.000 In this order, the President directed that DHS shall provide as appropriate and consistent
00:16:16.000 with applicable law personnel to assist with the protection of federal monuments, memorials,
00:16:21.000 statues, or property.
00:16:23.000 In furtherance of that directive, the acting Secretary of Homeland Security has formalized
00:16:26.000 the DHS Protecting American Communities Task Force, PACT, to provide an ongoing assessment
00:16:32.000 of potential civil unrest and property destruction and to address internal resource allocation
00:16:37.000 and potential surge activity to ensure the continuing protection of people and property.
00:16:43.000 Additionally, with the consent of other departments and agencies, DHS has determined that it is in the public interest and fiscally sound for the Federal Protective Service to partner with other federal law enforcement to execute the direction of the President.
00:16:55.000 To that end, DHS began coordination with the Department of Justice and the Department of the Interior to establish information intelligence sharing and resource coordination as outlined in the order.
00:17:05.000 CBP will be supporting this effort by deploying personnel to provide support over the July 4th holiday weekend, which has the potential for increased disruptive activity at specific locations across the country that could threaten our personnel and the federal facilities and property they protect.
00:17:20.000 That's basically it.
00:17:21.000 And then it names, you know, the executive order and their statements and what they're going to do and some questions.
00:17:27.000 What is CBP's role?
00:17:28.000 Blah, blah, blah.
00:17:29.000 It feels like standard procedure.
00:17:33.000 Right.
00:17:33.000 Right.
00:17:34.000 So there's some documents got released saying, hey, we're going to enforce the law.
00:17:37.000 We're going to, you know, talk to people and go out and make sure people aren't, you know, breaking stuff.
00:17:44.000 Oh my gosh, Tim!
00:17:45.000 It's the end of the world as we know it.
00:17:49.000 But I'm loving the propaganda stuff they're pumping out.
00:17:51.000 Totally.
00:17:51.000 There's like a thread that's got 10,000 retweets and it's this like white progressive, you know, far-left activist claiming that it is a really colorful depiction of Portland.
00:18:07.000 And I gotta admit, this thread, it sounds awesome.
00:18:10.000 It sounds great.
00:18:10.000 It like makes it seem like Portland has escaped from LA or like escaped from New York.
00:18:15.000 They're like, for the past four weeks, Trump's federal army has been storming the streets, throwing, snatching people up and black bagging them, barricading parks, taking over buildings.
00:18:27.000 It is a nightmare here.
00:18:28.000 You have no idea they're gassing civilians and it's like, wow.
00:18:32.000 It's like, it really sounds like you're like watching some crazy, you know, you're gonna go to Portland and it's a bunch of whiny 20-somethings who are like, F the police, man!
00:18:43.000 You're so dumb!
00:18:44.000 You don't even do anything!
00:18:46.000 And then the cops just like, you know.
00:18:49.000 I mean, it's a riot.
00:18:50.000 You know, so people are throwing bricks, starting fires, cops are firing tear gas and all that stuff.
00:18:54.000 But it's just, Man, it's not a revolution.
00:18:58.000 You want to see insurrection?
00:19:00.000 Look, I'll give it to these kids.
00:19:02.000 I say kids, but some of these people are pretty old.
00:19:04.000 So I'll give it to them that they certainly got anger and conviction.
00:19:09.000 They're going to go out and do their thing.
00:19:11.000 I can respect the demands, but I think they're insane regardless.
00:19:15.000 But you want to watch real, you know, like real, like watch the Ukraine stuff from the Euromaidan.
00:19:20.000 I don't even know what you'd call it.
00:19:24.000 It wasn't a riot because they had barricades.
00:19:27.000 They had built massive walls defending.
00:19:29.000 It was like civil war almost.
00:19:31.000 I guess they called it, I don't know what you'd call it.
00:19:33.000 I have no idea how you describe it.
00:19:35.000 But in this area, There's one video where, like, a government APC comes up to the wall, and then you just see, like, dozens of Molotovs just, in a second, just pelting, like, from all over the place.
00:19:48.000 And the whole thing is just engulfed in flames.
00:19:50.000 That's nuts.
00:19:51.000 Yeah.
00:19:51.000 These videos are a bunch of kids going, Use your words!
00:19:55.000 Use your words!
00:19:57.000 We love you!
00:19:57.000 You're violating his rights!
00:20:00.000 Yeah, we love you.
00:20:01.000 We love you.
00:20:01.000 We'll defend you.
00:20:02.000 We'll get you out.
00:20:04.000 Oh, man.
00:20:05.000 But it is 48 days of low-tier violence.
00:20:09.000 And I think, to be fair, I think there's a reason why they're not doing what we see in Ukraine or whatever, where they just throw 50 miles of cocktails at once.
00:20:17.000 It's because they don't want to be on the news.
00:20:19.000 Yep.
00:20:20.000 Well, and you even said you were talking to a friend of yours and they were like, yeah, well, the riot, the rioting ended like a month ago.
00:20:26.000 Exactly.
00:20:27.000 It's like, do you know what's going on in Portland right now?
00:20:29.000 Georgia.
00:20:31.000 Two national emergencies declared in the past week and a half.
00:20:31.000 Yeah.
00:20:31.000 Utah.
00:20:35.000 Yeah.
00:20:35.000 It's Chicago.
00:20:36.000 You know, what's, you know, what's going on in Chicago.
00:20:38.000 You know, what's going on in New York.
00:20:39.000 It's like, no.
00:20:40.000 People are stealing bread.
00:20:41.000 I hear from, from AOC.
00:20:42.000 Oh yeah.
00:20:43.000 Yeah, so somebody super chatted us the other day from, I think it's Don't Walk Run Productions, did a video about AOC's claim that the reason crime is going up is because people are maybe stealing bread.
00:20:53.000 And I don't know the host's name, but he was like, how much bread does AOC think is being stolen right now?
00:21:00.000 Like, crime is up 130-something percent.
00:21:03.000 Did you hear what de Blasio said?
00:21:05.000 No, what did he say?
00:21:06.000 He said, For the first time since World War II, we've had the lowest amount of inmates in our prisons.
00:21:13.000 Yeah, I know where they are.
00:21:15.000 And then he stood there like this.
00:21:17.000 This is... It's like that meme where it's like... Are you kidding me?
00:21:21.000 You let them all out!
00:21:22.000 They're out there shooting everybody!
00:21:24.000 But wait, this reminds me of that meme where it's like... It's like a Twitter account called ObviousFashSomething.
00:21:30.000 And it was like, you can get rid of all criminals by making all crime legal.
00:21:34.000 If there's no crime on the books, there's literally... So yes, we have less inmates than we ever have, because you let them all go without finishing their sentences.
00:21:45.000 And now you've got, I think it's like 13% to 15% are recommitting.
00:21:49.000 It's like hundreds of people have committed crimes.
00:21:52.000 And AOC, this is the funniest thing, she's like, maybe it's because they're scared to pay their rent and they're hungry and are stealing bread or something.
00:21:59.000 And Don't Walk Run Productions points out.
00:22:01.000 She's so clueless.
00:22:02.000 They point out that petty larceny is down 23%.
00:22:05.000 Not only is that not what's happening, but nobody's even stealing these things.
00:22:11.000 The crime is gone.
00:22:13.000 It's the murders and the shootings.
00:22:15.000 I love that she thinks that some guy walks out and he goes, hey look, there's a guy with his daughter.
00:22:20.000 I need bread.
00:22:21.000 Bang!
00:22:22.000 I need to go get bread, and then he walks away.
00:22:25.000 Does he frisk the guy looking for bread?
00:22:26.000 Does he walk up to the dude on the ground and be like, let me see, where's that bread at?
00:22:29.000 Oh, there's no bread.
00:22:30.000 Oh, how am I going to go get a loaf of bread?
00:22:33.000 Yeah, that video upsets me.
00:22:34.000 But I think that really does show that these people have no idea what's going on in their own jurisdictions.
00:22:40.000 No, they're clueless.
00:22:41.000 AOC is clearly clueless.
00:22:43.000 Now she's fighting for taxing the rich.
00:22:46.000 Tax the billionaires!
00:22:47.000 And Cuomo's like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:22:49.000 Yeah, I know.
00:22:50.000 No, no, no.
00:22:50.000 They'll leave town.
00:22:51.000 You realize, right?
00:22:52.000 They'll go to a different city and we won't get their tax money at all.
00:22:55.000 What did he say?
00:22:56.000 God help us if the wealthy leave?
00:22:58.000 Right.
00:22:59.000 So they're leaving.
00:23:00.000 Surprise, surprise.
00:23:01.000 You're going to love this.
00:23:03.000 There's a documentary about this from a long time ago about how Donald Trump saved New York City.
00:23:07.000 By creating a desire for luxury inhabitants.
00:23:11.000 So in the 80s, and I could be totally wrong because I just, I just watched like, I remember one night I was just like half glazed over sitting on the couch, like, and it was on in the background.
00:23:19.000 So that's my extent of this knowledge.
00:23:21.000 But they talked about how in the 80s, New York was collapsing.
00:23:26.000 Okay.
00:23:26.000 You know, the crime was skyrocketing.
00:23:27.000 The tax base was eroding.
00:23:28.000 Nobody wanted to live there.
00:23:29.000 So Trump basically came in and said, give me a massive tax break.
00:23:33.000 Make it worth my while.
00:23:34.000 They fought him on that too.
00:23:35.000 Yeah.
00:23:36.000 And then he was like, I don't care.
00:23:37.000 He's like, but give me a tax break.
00:23:39.000 I'll bring some buildings.
00:23:40.000 I'll get, get rich people to live here.
00:23:41.000 Your taxes, your taxes, your, your, uh, your, your tax base will, will skyrocket.
00:23:44.000 That's the Trump Tower right there.
00:23:45.000 And then he, there's multiple.
00:23:47.000 You've got, you've got the, you've got the Trump Tower on fifth.
00:23:49.000 Well, that was the start.
00:23:50.000 That was the, that was the beginning.
00:23:51.000 How many are there?
00:23:52.000 There are three or there are more?
00:23:53.000 I mean, so here's how many that he built or that have the name Trump on well
00:23:57.000 You've got the Trump International Hotel Hotel at Columbus Circle
00:24:00.000 You've got Trump on Fifth Avenue and you've got Trump at the UN the UN
00:24:03.000 So I don't know what the Trump at the Fifth Avenue one is like the ice cream shop in it
00:24:07.000 That's the famous one where he comes down the escalator.
00:24:09.000 Yeah Yeah, I actually know I hung out once with a couple people
00:24:12.000 who live Across the street from the UN at the other Trump luxury
00:24:16.000 building or whatever and then there's the yeah And then there's the Trump International Hotel.
00:24:21.000 But his strategy was, make it like desirable.
00:24:25.000 All the rich people want to be there.
00:24:26.000 You want to be cool, man.
00:24:27.000 You want to be like Trump.
00:24:28.000 You want that golden toilet?
00:24:29.000 You gotta come to New York.
00:24:30.000 And it worked.
00:24:31.000 Yep, it did.
00:24:32.000 And that's what I saw from this documentary that was running in the background while I was eating ice cream or something.
00:24:36.000 I have no idea.
00:24:37.000 But I don't know if you've come across that stuff because you've been reading a lot about it.
00:24:40.000 Well, yeah.
00:24:41.000 That was the beginning.
00:24:43.000 They fought him for a while.
00:24:46.000 I think it was Mayor Koch.
00:24:48.000 Coach?
00:24:48.000 How do you say his name?
00:24:49.000 I don't know.
00:24:50.000 Ed Koch, I think.
00:24:50.000 Koch?
00:24:52.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:24:53.000 They were fighting for a while about it.
00:24:55.000 And Trump eventually won and then built the building.
00:24:58.000 But then, of course, Yeah.
00:24:59.000 filled it out.
00:25:00.000 Like people were like lining up.
00:25:03.000 He sold one for like $10 million, one building.
00:25:06.000 But it's like those taxes all went into the city.
00:25:10.000 And it's like people don't realize the amount of, like the ripple effect that just that one building had
00:25:17.000 for the taxes of the city.
00:25:18.000 There's a, from.
00:25:19.000 I think it's the American Enterprise Institute.
00:25:21.000 They did a graph showing the net income per income bracket.
00:25:26.000 And most people receive benefits.
00:25:30.000 Most people don't pay in.
00:25:32.000 It's basically the top 10%.
00:25:36.000 No, I think it's the top 20% is where you actually get a net benefit to the government.
00:25:42.000 The top 1% covers the overwhelming majority of all taxes.
00:25:46.000 Something like that.
00:25:47.000 You have to look up the hard numbers.
00:25:49.000 But basically, during Occupy Wall Street, there was the We Are the 99% movement, where people would take pictures saying like, you know, I went to school and now I got $100,000 in debt and I can't pay it off because I work at McDonald's.
00:26:00.000 I am the 99%.
00:26:01.000 But then something happened on the other side where people started writing, I think it's the 47% of Americans who actually pay taxes.
00:26:08.000 Right.
00:26:08.000 Yeah.
00:26:09.000 And so according to this graph I saw from the American Enterprise Institute, basically everybody pays taxes, right?
00:26:15.000 But what people don't realize, and this is a serious problem for us, is that if you're making like 40k a year, And you pay 23% or whatever in taxes, you're probably receiving more benefit in terms of all the infrastructure, the entirety of public services.
00:26:33.000 You're probably receiving more than you're paying in.
00:26:35.000 And then you have the rich people, which are paying a ridiculous amount.
00:26:38.000 And that's exactly why Trump wanted to bring people into New York.
00:26:41.000 It's exactly why Andrew Cuomo said something like, I think he said, God help us if the wealthy leave.
00:26:48.000 And now they're starting to leave.
00:26:50.000 I pulled all this stuff up, I did a segment on it where I was like, Cuomo's worst nightmare is here.
00:26:54.000 Following COVID, the wealthy people are fleeing.
00:26:56.000 Oh man, she lit that city on fire.
00:26:59.000 This is not a joke, man.
00:27:00.000 Amazon was gonna build a second headquarters in Queens.
00:27:02.000 25 to 40,000 jobs, dang.
00:27:07.000 Do you have any idea how the tax base works?
00:27:09.000 I'm saying this to AOC, not to you.
00:27:12.000 That one person who gets hired by Amazon, they get paid $100K a year, whatever, we'll just say $100K because it's an Amazon job.
00:27:20.000 Amazon's got to pay employment tax.
00:27:22.000 Then that resident has to pay taxes.
00:27:25.000 Then they rent a building, they pay taxes.
00:27:27.000 Then they start paying into the metro system to get around.
00:27:30.000 Then they start buying goods, sales taxes.
00:27:32.000 That one person generates a massive amount of taxes because it's not just your paycheck.
00:27:37.000 When I have a dollar, if I give it to you and you pay taxes on it, now you have 80 cents.
00:27:42.000 Then you give me 80 cents, then I pay tax on it, now I've got 70 cents.
00:27:45.000 Back and forth, Uncle Sam keeps taking a little bit, in this instance, Uncle Cuomo,
00:27:49.000 keeps taking a little bit of cash.
00:27:51.000 So when you have $25,000 to $40,000, let's say I was in the high end, man.
00:27:56.000 That was money that city needed desperately because the MTA is facing a four billion dollar shortfall.
00:28:02.000 Those trains are gonna stop working.
00:28:04.000 They were gonna shut down the L train.
00:28:06.000 For those that don't live in New York, the hot hipster neighborhood Williamsburg.
00:28:10.000 There's one train to get in there from Manhattan.
00:28:12.000 The L. Bed Bushwick.
00:28:15.000 Yeah.
00:28:15.000 Eastern Williamsburg.
00:28:17.000 Well, they just kept changing the name.
00:28:19.000 So basically, Williamsburg was the hot neighborhood.
00:28:22.000 In order to convince people to move to crummier neighborhoods surrounding it, they would call it like East and Southeast Williamsburg.
00:28:27.000 Right.
00:28:27.000 Just like, change the name of the neighborhood because people want to live there.
00:28:30.000 That's Bed-Stuy.
00:28:31.000 Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:28:32.000 But so, so here's, here's what happens.
00:28:32.000 Sorry.
00:28:34.000 The L train was falling apart.
00:28:36.000 So they announced they were going to suspend service.
00:28:39.000 And then I think that was years ago.
00:28:41.000 Like it was supposed to have been shut down.
00:28:42.000 I don't know what they're doing.
00:28:43.000 Yeah.
00:28:44.000 It was vastly approaching before I left town.
00:28:46.000 I mean, I skated most places.
00:28:48.000 I would skate everywhere.
00:28:49.000 So I didn't take the train that often unless I needed to get somewhere quickly and it was like dumping outside or whatever.
00:28:55.000 I would then take the train.
00:28:57.000 The L train.
00:28:57.000 But the L train was supposed to shut down because it really, really needed some repair.
00:29:03.000 It kept breaking.
00:29:04.000 It kept breaking.
00:29:05.000 So they were going to shut it down for months.
00:29:07.000 No, like a year or something.
00:29:08.000 Oh yeah, yeah.
00:29:09.000 Maybe even a year.
00:29:10.000 I don't know exactly the amount.
00:29:12.000 So my understanding of what happened, just as someone who lived nearby, not following the news that much, was that property value just tanked.
00:29:18.000 Everybody was investing in this neighborhood, thinking like it's up and coming, it's super hot and hipster.
00:29:23.000 The L train was basically one stop from Williamsburg into Manhattan.
00:29:27.000 It just brought you under the water.
00:29:29.000 When they announced they were going to shut it down, all of the real estate, you know, owners, investors were like, no!
00:29:35.000 Like, oh man, we're going to lose everything.
00:29:37.000 Because no one's going to want to live stuck in this little peninsula you can't get out.
00:29:41.000 So, anyway, long story short, they ended up suspending the timeframe and moving it, but whatever.
00:29:46.000 This is why the Amazon deal was so important, bringing these jobs in.
00:29:49.000 And AOC, she leads these protests.
00:29:53.000 She went down to the financial district and she was like, Amazon, gotta pay their fair share.
00:29:56.000 And there's this really cringe video where she walks up to the camera, like she's walking out of a meeting, and then someone asks her like, okay, Ocasio-Cortez, what about Amazon?
00:30:05.000 And she goes, can you believe they were gonna give Amazon $3 billion?
00:30:10.000 And then everyone was like, dude, it was a discount.
00:30:13.000 Right.
00:30:13.000 They weren't giving money.
00:30:14.000 So basically, if if Dunkin Donuts said two dollars off a dozen donuts, she'd be like, I can't believe they're going to give people two dollars.
00:30:24.000 No, no, no, no, no.
00:30:24.000 You have to buy the donuts.
00:30:26.000 And they're just a little cheaper than normally.
00:30:27.000 See how that works.
00:30:28.000 Cyber Cyber Reset just said it's a little super chat said AOC is the new Mary Antoinette.
00:30:35.000 Oh, geez.
00:30:35.000 And it's so accurate.
00:30:37.000 Like what you just said, like Well, just give them some bread then.
00:30:43.000 That's basically what she's saying.
00:30:44.000 Why don't they just eat some bread?
00:30:45.000 Well, if they just want bread, why don't you just hook them up with some bread then?
00:30:49.000 Why not?
00:30:51.000 So she chased out Amazon and then started saying, I don't even represent that district.
00:30:56.000 Why is everyone blaming me?
00:30:57.000 And people were like, dude, you were like the lead.
00:31:00.000 Like a speaker at the protests to kick them out.
00:31:04.000 Because you have a following and people think they know what you're talking about, AOC.
00:31:08.000 That's why.
00:31:09.000 And she was tweeting about it, and she was speaking about it, and she was wrong about it.
00:31:13.000 And Cuomo was livid, and local Democrats were livid, and she still won her primary.
00:31:19.000 How about that?
00:31:20.000 That blew my mind.
00:31:22.000 So now you've chased out Amazon.
00:31:23.000 Here's the best part.
00:31:24.000 Oh, I love it.
00:31:24.000 So Amazon announces they're gonna open a marketing office, which has like a thousand employees, and she takes a picture of herself in her lobby smiling like, mm-hmm, and then she tweets like, when you're proven right and Amazon comes back anyway, and then all of these dumb lefties are all high-fiving each other going like, yeah, you know, and everyone's like, First of all, that is 1,000 employees, not 25,000.
00:31:48.000 Second of all, they were going to open that office anyway.
00:31:50.000 It's a different office.
00:31:51.000 It's marketing.
00:31:53.000 Those jobs were already going to be there, but we just lost all these other jobs.
00:31:57.000 Thanks, AOC.
00:31:59.000 To go back a little bit to what's going on in Portland, this is why I do not like the feds cleaning up the mess for these Democratic mayors and governors and whatever.
00:32:09.000 They just re-elected AOC in the primary.
00:32:13.000 I swear, if she's going to win, the general, then New York City deserves it.
00:32:17.000 They're asking for it.
00:32:19.000 And Trump says he's not going to give them money?
00:32:20.000 Good!
00:32:21.000 Good!
00:32:22.000 If, listen, here's the way I see it.
00:32:24.000 If the people of Portland will not indict, they refuse to return indictments on these rioters.
00:32:30.000 They clearly want it.
00:32:31.000 Yeah, that's true.
00:32:32.000 And if the mayor says, we like our city burning down, okay then, the feds can go into the courthouse and defend the courthouse.
00:32:40.000 And then Antifa can go around, running around, destroying whatever.
00:32:45.000 And give the cities what they ask for.
00:32:47.000 The problem is, if you, like you're a parent, if you keep cleaning up the messes for your kids, they never learn.
00:32:55.000 And then what ends up happening is, the more the federal government steps in to clean up the mess for these people, the more they keep electing them, and it gets worse.
00:33:04.000 Then their senators get elected, and their congresspeople get elected, and they go to the federal government, and they bring that mess with them.
00:33:13.000 What I think would be appropriate is if they don't want to indict people and they want rioters running around, well, it's the Portland cops' job to deal with that.
00:33:22.000 Not the feds'.
00:33:23.000 Yep, I agree.
00:33:24.000 So the feds should guard the courthouse and just let the rioters do their thing.
00:33:29.000 Maybe.
00:33:29.000 But you know, someone mentioned this, that the people of Portland, they don't really care about what happens downtown because they don't live there.
00:33:37.000 So this is the perfect opportunity for the left to start filming feds acting a fool, you know, or I mean, from their perspective, like, aha, look, look what they're doing.
00:33:45.000 And regular people aren't there and they won't realize.
00:33:47.000 So it's a perfect propaganda opportunity.
00:33:50.000 Anyway, long story short, man, you get what you vote for, you know?
00:33:55.000 And Portland didn't vote for Trump.
00:33:56.000 So why should Trump's pact be cleaning up their messes?
00:34:03.000 I don't have an answer for that.
00:34:04.000 They shouldn't.
00:34:05.000 But there's another big problem in this world today that contributes to this nightmare, and that is fake news, my friends.
00:34:13.000 I must show you the fakest of fake news.
00:34:17.000 I'm going to explain to you something I've probably explained a lot.
00:34:20.000 Break it down, Tim.
00:34:22.000 Why it is people in this country have no idea what's going on and why their brains are broken.
00:34:25.000 Boom.
00:34:26.000 So, a good example.
00:34:28.000 Actually, let me give you the full context first.
00:34:30.000 Daily Mail says, quote, Let's go!
00:34:32.000 Donald Trump furiously orders aides to provide proof to Fox News' Chris Wallace that Joe Biden wants to defund the police and his staff can't provide any.
00:34:42.000 First and foremost, they frame this story as though it is not true.
00:34:47.000 Let me just tell you, Trump was right.
00:34:50.000 Joe Biden does, based on the common understanding of what defund means, Joe Biden does want to defund the police by his own admission, his own words.
00:35:01.000 Yes, absolutely.
00:35:02.000 We'll get to that.
00:35:03.000 But what you need to understand about why this story is so... annoying...
00:35:08.000 is when Adam talks about he's trying to convince people on Facebook or not even
00:35:13.000 necessarily convince people just explaining people like yo you know uh here's here here's
00:35:16.000 a story that's really important about why you know i would want to vote for trump yeah and
00:35:19.000 then you get a bunch of people saying like i don't believe you you know well how dare you
00:35:24.000 you vote for someone that is a bigot and was like that has nothing to do with what i just
00:35:31.000 like presented you like Like, look at what I just said, read the article that I'm presenting, and you're just, you're coming at me with something different.
00:35:40.000 Well, here's the best example.
00:35:42.000 Earlier today, you posted something about Joe Biden will get back in bed with China.
00:35:46.000 Right, yeah.
00:35:47.000 And then someone was like, you're only saying that because Trump just said it's not true, blah blah blah.
00:35:52.000 And the difficult thing is you can pull up 50 billion articles that will make it seem like Joe Biden is all about America.
00:35:59.000 But when you actually dig in and look at the framing, you realize it's just lazy journalism.
00:36:04.000 Yeah.
00:36:05.000 And then and then they actually some of them have messaged me privately.
00:36:09.000 Here's all this.
00:36:09.000 Here's all the articles that I was talking to you about.
00:36:11.000 Yep.
00:36:12.000 And I read them all.
00:36:14.000 80% of them, Trump allegedly did this, Trump allegedly did this, Trump allegedly did this, and I'm like, ugh.
00:36:21.000 Or, I'm sick of this allegedly stuff.
00:36:23.000 It's like, give me the exact stuff, because everything I'm reading, I look into, and it didn't actually happen.
00:36:29.000 So it's them saying whatever, whatever.
00:36:32.000 We'll come back to this.
00:36:32.000 Go ahead.
00:36:33.000 But I want to make sure everybody who's watching this gets an understanding of how the media is broken.
00:36:37.000 I bring you now to the Daily Mail.
00:36:39.000 You see, I read you this headline.
00:36:41.000 Trump furiously says, you know, I want proof, but he can't provide any.
00:36:45.000 Oh no, Trump.
00:36:46.000 Oh, oh no.
00:36:47.000 Look at this.
00:36:48.000 Trump claims Joe Biden wants to defund police in upcoming Fox News interview.
00:36:52.000 Now we have this one from the Hill.
00:36:54.000 Fox host Chris Wallace, fact, Chris Wallace, fact checks Trump claim Biden wants to defund the police.
00:36:59.000 Now they're all a bit more neutral on this, but the reality is Joe Biden absolutely does.
00:37:05.000 And I have for you the interview where he literally says, yes.
00:37:09.000 Let me see if, well, let's play it.
00:37:11.000 Hopefully the sound works.
00:37:12.000 Surplus military equipment for law enforcement.
00:37:15.000 They don't need that.
00:37:16.000 The last thing you need is an up-armored Humvee coming into a neighborhood.
00:37:19.000 It's like the military invading.
00:37:21.000 They don't know anybody.
00:37:22.000 They become the enemy.
00:37:23.000 They're supposed to be protecting these people.
00:37:25.000 So my generic point is that- But can we agree that we can redirect some of the funding?
00:37:30.000 Yes, absolutely.
00:37:32.000 One of the things that- Okay, from now this.
00:37:36.000 Yes, absolutely.
00:37:38.000 Cut police funds.
00:37:39.000 They've become the enemy.
00:37:40.000 First, let me call out the Trump war room.
00:37:43.000 He didn't say cut funding to the police.
00:37:45.000 He said, redirect some of the funding.
00:37:47.000 And Joe Biden said, yes, absolutely.
00:37:50.000 Now I bring you to the New York Post story.
00:37:53.000 In this interview, Chris Wallace is like, he's talking to Donald Trump, and Trump says, well, look, Joe Biden wants to defund the police.
00:38:00.000 And Wallace goes, no, sir, he does not.
00:38:03.000 And Trump's like, yes, he does.
00:38:05.000 He just did this pact with Bernie Sanders, and he goes, let's go.
00:38:08.000 And he calls his aides, and his aides can't find anything specifically in this document with Bernie that says defund, but it does talk about reallocation.
00:38:17.000 More importantly, however, the New York Post does bring up this at the bottom.
00:38:21.000 They say, the Bernie Sanders unity agenda does not use the term defund, but calls for policies that will reorient our public safety approach toward prevention and away from over-policing.
00:38:32.000 Biden orally committed last week to steering funds away from the police.
00:38:36.000 An interviewer asked the former vice president, but do we agree that we can redirect some of the police funding?
00:38:41.000 Yes, absolutely.
00:38:43.000 Now I know, right away.
00:38:45.000 Chris Wallace is probably saying, well redirecting funds does not mean defund or abolish.
00:38:50.000 And I'm sure all of the lefties are going to be like, no.
00:38:52.000 You see Biden, someone tweeted this to me.
00:38:54.000 Biden was talking about moving funding from like one department to another.
00:38:58.000 No, he literally said redirect police funding.
00:39:00.000 Okay.
00:39:01.000 You want to make, you want to make an assumption about what it means?
00:39:03.000 Feel free to do so.
00:39:03.000 I'm not going to do that.
00:39:04.000 I'm going to show you what they literally mean.
00:39:06.000 According to the Brookings Institute, defund the police means reallocating or redirecting funding away from the police department to other government agencies funded by the local municipality.
00:39:16.000 That's it.
00:39:18.000 Boom.
00:39:18.000 It's that simple.
00:39:19.000 It's that simple.
00:39:20.000 So now you have all these people running around, you see stories like this.
00:39:23.000 AP, Joe Biden did not call for defunding the police.
00:39:27.000 Hold on a minute.
00:39:28.000 If the definition that they gave Okay, in numerous instances, because look, I'm choosing these select sources, right?
00:39:34.000 Right.
00:39:35.000 There's 50 billion sources that say defund means literally defund.
00:39:38.000 Check this one out.
00:39:39.000 Yes, we mean literally abolish the police.
00:39:42.000 That's helpful.
00:39:42.000 Okay, man.
00:39:43.000 So I'll tell you what, if Joe Biden doesn't know what he's talking about, you do not have the right to claim you can read his mind and knew what he really meant.
00:39:52.000 What they're doing in the media is they're using whatever definition is, you know, going to get them the most points.
00:39:59.000 Yep.
00:40:00.000 So when they first said defund the police, and it shocked the minds of America when they were like, whoa, defund the police?
00:40:08.000 I believe something like 80% or so say no to this.
00:40:11.000 They don't want to see a reduction in police funding.
00:40:14.000 But a lot of people thought it meant remove all funding from police.
00:40:18.000 All of a sudden we heard a split.
00:40:19.000 A bunch of people said, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:40:20.000 It just means like demilitarize.
00:40:23.000 Like Joe Biden was saying, they got big tanks.
00:40:27.000 They don't need that, become the enemy.
00:40:29.000 Yes, he's taking the Democratic Party's approach that the police departments should have a little bit less funding because they got too much big, big, you know, APCs and weapons and stuff.
00:40:38.000 That is literally one of the definitions of defund the police.
00:40:41.000 Yep.
00:40:41.000 According to other definitions, it means literally abolish.
00:40:44.000 But based on what Joe Biden said, it does fit what they're claiming.
00:40:48.000 And now the AP says this.
00:40:51.000 During an interview with activist A.D.
00:40:53.000 Barkin, Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden gave his full support to defunding the police in the US.
00:41:00.000 AP's assessment?
00:41:01.000 False.
00:41:02.000 Biden said he supports redirecting some police funding to address mental health or to change the prison system.
00:41:07.000 I'm sorry, what did the Brookings Institute say?
00:41:09.000 So who's right?
00:41:11.000 This is why no one has any idea what's really happening in this country.
00:41:13.000 I have an answer.
00:41:14.000 I have an answer.
00:41:15.000 Trump is.
00:41:16.000 Exactly.
00:41:16.000 Trump is right.
00:41:17.000 He is.
00:41:18.000 He was correct.
00:41:18.000 Yep.
00:41:20.000 So this is the problem.
00:41:21.000 When Trump says Hillary Clinton acid-washed her server, and then NBC says, Hillary Clinton actually didn't use a corrosive substance on her computer.
00:41:29.000 That would be ridiculous.
00:41:31.000 Or then when Trump's having a candid interview with Chris Wallace, he doesn't have these sources pulled up in front of him.
00:41:37.000 I'll tell you what, Donald Trump.
00:41:39.000 I'm going to assume you're listening, because you better be.
00:41:41.000 Of course.
00:41:42.000 Or Trump Jr.
00:41:43.000 Kayleigh McEnany needs to be standing next to you for all of these interviews, 100%.
00:41:47.000 You know why?
00:41:48.000 Because she got that binder with all those tabs.
00:41:51.000 And Chris Wallace would be like, no, sir.
00:41:53.000 Joe Biden does not want to.
00:41:54.000 Up, up, up, up.
00:41:55.000 Kayleigh?
00:41:56.000 And she'd go, I have it right here, actually.
00:41:57.000 He said, we would, yes, absolutely, when asked if we would reallocate.
00:42:01.000 And then Chris Wallace will go, well, reallocating, is that... Kayleigh?
00:42:04.000 And then she'd go, yes, actually, right here, in this source, this source, this source, and this source, they all defined defunding as reallocating funds.
00:42:11.000 So, yes, Joe Biden agrees with that.
00:42:14.000 Yep.
00:42:14.000 And then it would be over.
00:42:15.000 Yep.
00:42:15.000 He need, Kayleigh McEnany, you got, just got, you got to bring her, you just have her.
00:42:18.000 She, she's the press secretary.
00:42:19.000 Yep.
00:42:20.000 She should be just standing right off.
00:42:21.000 Then when Trump wants to call his aides over and they read through the Biden
00:42:25.000 Bernie pact and they don't know what's in it or where Joe Biden said he wants to
00:42:30.000 reallocate some of this funding, I'm pretty sure Kayleigh, Kayleigh McEnany has all the answers.
00:42:34.000 Yep, she does.
00:42:35.000 She's a beast.
00:42:36.000 That photo, you've seen that photo?
00:42:38.000 Of her binder?
00:42:39.000 Yeah, her binder's got all these tabs of all these different stories.
00:42:42.000 It's so legit.
00:42:43.000 And I love it.
00:42:44.000 She'll get asked some stupid question and she'll go, I'm glad you asked.
00:42:48.000 And then she'll pull the tab and she'll go, ah, here we are.
00:42:50.000 It's amazing.
00:42:52.000 Oh yeah, that example?
00:42:53.000 Well what about this example?
00:42:54.000 This example, this example, and this example?
00:42:57.000 Next.
00:42:59.000 And now, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to slam dunk the last portion of this segment.
00:43:08.000 Does Joe Biden Want to defund the police?
00:43:12.000 Well, as we've broken down for you, the answer is a technical yes.
00:43:16.000 I mean, he said he wants to reallocate funding.
00:43:19.000 That's at least one of the basic definitions.
00:43:21.000 So I think we can say, although there are many people with different perspectives, he at least fits one of them.
00:43:26.000 But how about this?
00:43:27.000 Biden campaign staffer mocked cops as worse than pigs and called for defunding the police.
00:43:35.000 Wow.
00:43:35.000 I understand it's not Biden directly, but come on, man.
00:43:40.000 It's a campaign staffer.
00:43:42.000 So maybe he doesn't know her, but this is a part of his campaign.
00:43:47.000 Same as Bernie Sanders when he had those people exposed by Veritas, okay?
00:43:50.000 This is what this person, Sarah Pearl, tweeted.
00:43:53.000 It's an image.
00:43:54.000 It says, please stop calling cops pigs.
00:43:57.000 Pigs are highly intelligent and empathetic animals who would never racially profile you.
00:44:02.000 I have a question.
00:44:02.000 And then there's hearts next to a pig face.
00:44:04.000 I wonder if she's vegan.
00:44:06.000 I bet she eats bacon.
00:44:08.000 I don't know, maybe.
00:44:08.000 I wouldn't be surprised if they're all vegans.
00:44:11.000 After what they were demanding from the Chaz.
00:44:13.000 We demand seitan!
00:44:15.000 No, that was in Portland, I think.
00:44:17.000 That was the original pre-Chaz Chaz.
00:44:20.000 We demand vegan food!
00:44:22.000 I told you about Paz.
00:44:24.000 Portland?
00:44:25.000 I told you the sad story of the wasted vegan pizza at Occupy.
00:44:28.000 Yeah, you told me about it.
00:44:29.000 This tastes weird.
00:44:30.000 Someone's trying to poison it.
00:44:31.000 Well, it looked weird.
00:44:32.000 Oh.
00:44:33.000 And nobody knew what it was.
00:44:34.000 Yeah, so at Occupy, a bunch of pizzas got delivered, and people opened it and noticed
00:44:38.000 that on one pizza it looked normal, and the other one, the cheese looked like it wasn't
00:44:42.000 all the way melted.
00:44:43.000 Right.
00:44:44.000 Such a shame.
00:44:44.000 Exactly and so people were like I don't know this looks weird and someone tried
00:44:49.000 It's like it doesn't taste like regular pizza, and they're like we don't we better not eat it
00:44:52.000 They just dumped it such a shame. Yeah, it was vegan pizza Yep, and the regular pizza was fine the vegan pizza
00:44:59.000 probably way healthier probably, but so anyway look out actually
00:45:02.000 I'm not gonna I'm not gonna pretend like just because one campaign staffer
00:45:06.000 called for defunding the police or whatever But I think you add this with what we just talked about and
00:45:12.000 there it is Joe Biden, his campaign, they do agree with the same activist sentiment.
00:45:18.000 Call it whatever you want, reallocate, you know, address, whatever.
00:45:26.000 Joe Biden says yes, absolutely, when the activists ask him if he's on board.
00:45:30.000 Yeah, defund means take funds away.
00:45:32.000 Period.
00:45:33.000 So now... Doesn't matter where they go.
00:45:34.000 If you're moving them somewhere else, you're defunding the police.
00:45:37.000 But now for the sad, pessimistic view of the world.
00:45:40.000 Oh great.
00:45:40.000 Every.
00:45:41.000 Single.
00:45:42.000 Story.
00:45:43.000 Is this.
00:45:45.000 Obviously not literally all I'm just saying like 90 something percent every day I'm going through the news and it's like, you know Snopes did Donald Trump actually, you know Like did Donald Trump carry a bag of burning puppies, you know and toss them into a burning building mostly true and then what it'll say is while Donald Trump did throw a bag of puppies into Right.
00:46:08.000 into a burning building, it was actually because he was moving them out of the burning room
00:46:12.000 into the safe room where the firefighters were waiting to safely rescue them.
00:46:15.000 It was the living room of the building.
00:46:16.000 That's what they do, right?
00:46:17.000 Yeah.
00:46:18.000 So it's like, you get this really great story.
00:46:20.000 Donald Trump, you know, jumps in front of a car to save a little kid, and they'll show the picture
00:46:23.000 of Trump like this in front of the kid, in front of the car, and it'll be like, you know,
00:46:28.000 did Trump push a kid in front of a car?
00:46:30.000 True, Donald Trump pushed the kid who was in front of a car to save his life.
00:46:34.000 Right.
00:46:34.000 It's like, that's not the context.
00:46:37.000 Yeah, man.
00:46:38.000 Learn the context, people.
00:46:39.000 No, it's on purpose.
00:46:40.000 Learn the context.
00:46:41.000 Jim Acosta knows what he's doing.
00:46:42.000 Brian Stelter knows what he's doing.
00:46:43.000 The media are storytellers.
00:46:46.000 That's what I'm finding out.
00:46:47.000 They're storytellers that tell the story that they want to tell.
00:46:50.000 And you have to Look it up.
00:46:53.000 Look up the context.
00:46:55.000 That's what I've been doing.
00:46:55.000 Everyone keeps giving me, oh, well, here's this article.
00:46:58.000 And I'm like, all right, I'll read it.
00:46:58.000 Yeah, but dude... And then I'll go and follow the sources to the end to where it actually is talking about.
00:47:05.000 And I'm like, oh, so it's not true.
00:47:07.000 And I go back to the conversation.
00:47:09.000 OK, so that's not true.
00:47:10.000 But what the right... Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:47:12.000 Yes, it is.
00:47:12.000 Someone actually said that to me.
00:47:13.000 But the average person spends most of their day at work.
00:47:16.000 You're right.
00:47:17.000 And all these people coming at me on Facebook, that's what they tend to do also.
00:47:22.000 And I actually try to explain to them, okay, well my job is actually researching all of this, non-stop, all day.
00:47:30.000 That's what I've been doing.
00:47:31.000 Even my free time.
00:47:32.000 I don't even have free time anymore.
00:47:33.000 My free time is when we go skating.
00:47:35.000 Yeah.
00:47:35.000 As soon as that's over, I'm like, alright, back to the grind.
00:47:39.000 But they don't want to hear that.
00:47:40.000 They don't want to hear it.
00:47:41.000 They're like, are you a doctor, Adam?
00:47:44.000 Are you a doctor?
00:47:44.000 Someone told me that today.
00:47:46.000 Because I've been talking about certain things on Facebook.
00:47:50.000 And basically what they like to do is, how about you, you know, just leave it to the experts, Adam, and then when you say something like, actually, it's my job to read the news all day and fact-check these things, gone.
00:48:02.000 They just don't respond.
00:48:03.000 That's true.
00:48:04.000 Because they don't actually care about what's important, what's true.
00:48:07.000 This is a serious cultural problem we have.
00:48:08.000 Because I'll tell you what, man, if the American people don't want to high-five and yell America together, well then that's a bigger problem.
00:48:15.000 That's all that matters.
00:48:17.000 So look, even if we disagreed on certain policy issues, as long as we agree on AMERICA, you know?
00:48:26.000 That's not even the thing anymore.
00:48:27.000 People are starting to be convinced that America is not good, and it's like, that's crazy to me.
00:48:34.000 That is insane.
00:48:35.000 And I know a lot of these people have never been outside America, and they need to.
00:48:40.000 Probably not even outside their hometown.
00:48:42.000 I know for a fact that they have.
00:48:44.000 But as far as leaving the states, I know one friend of mine has traveled around a lot, and he should know better, but it's like, I read... America's an amazing place!
00:48:54.000 We are free here.
00:48:57.000 Our civil rights... How many countries have the amount of civil rights that we do?
00:49:01.000 What do you think?
00:49:02.000 Oh man, I honestly don't know.
00:49:03.000 What percentage?
00:49:05.000 Really small, actually.
00:49:06.000 Tiny percentage.
00:49:06.000 Because, well, it's really, really small.
00:49:08.000 Even European countries don't have the same civil rights as us.
00:49:11.000 You're absolutely right.
00:49:12.000 Like, Canada, you can get arrested for saying naughty words on the internet.
00:49:15.000 In the UK, Count Dankula Count Danikula's story is the perfect example of how insane things are, even in Western nations.
00:49:24.000 Because he made a joke for like 10 subscribers of his dog doing something offensive.
00:49:30.000 They arrested the guy.
00:49:31.000 And they took the money out of his bank, they charged and convicted him for making a joke on the internet.
00:49:36.000 In the United States, this even happens to people.
00:49:39.000 You know there are stories of people posting rap lyrics getting arrested and charged with terror and stuff?
00:49:43.000 Seriously?
00:49:43.000 Yeah, there's one story about some kid who posted rap lyrics.
00:49:47.000 And the rap lyrics were... Lewd?
00:49:50.000 No, like terroristic.
00:49:51.000 Oh, wow.
00:49:52.000 Yeah, like talking about, you know, popping a cap or whatever.
00:49:55.000 That's a whole other conversation about a certain culture that's, you know, making people do certain things and believe that that's the cool thing to do.
00:50:04.000 It's not even about that.
00:50:05.000 It's about the fact that we have a First Amendment right here in this country.
00:50:07.000 Yeah.
00:50:08.000 And even when the line is blurred, you can sometimes have your rights violated.
00:50:12.000 And we still are one of the best countries.
00:50:14.000 You're right.
00:50:15.000 I don't, I don't, I guess, arguably, in terms of freedom, Mexico might be better.
00:50:21.000 You know why?
00:50:21.000 Why?
00:50:22.000 They've got, you know, I think it's in like southern Mexico, a bunch of anarchists, like both left and right wing, kind of just do whatever they want, because it's relatively lawless.
00:50:31.000 Yeah, Luke Rutkowski, if we are changed, went down to, I guess, I don't know if it's Acapulco, Anarchapulco, or however, like wherever it is, but he literally went to the city that's all private.
00:50:43.000 It's like private security.
00:50:44.000 There's no real strong government.
00:50:46.000 People just do whatever they want.
00:50:47.000 And then rich people like to go down there and have private security guards guarding their property because they can do whatever they want.
00:50:53.000 Think about the things you can actually do.
00:50:55.000 Maybe play a game of poker with your friends.
00:50:59.000 Maybe fire a bow and arrow in your backyard.
00:51:03.000 Like, I want to talk about things that, like, if you knew what you were doing, and you had a decent-sized backyard, and you had the proper safety and all that stuff, and you knew it was safe, you still can't do that in a lot of places.
00:51:14.000 Like, they'll call the cops.
00:51:15.000 Or even a BB gun.
00:51:17.000 So a lot of people thinking about that, and probably drugs, They want to go off in the middle of nowhere.
00:51:22.000 But these places, like in southern Mexico, are not necessarily the middle of nowhere.
00:51:25.000 They're towns with functioning, you know, stores and goods.
00:51:29.000 And it's interesting, man.
00:51:31.000 Talk about freedom.
00:51:32.000 But you know what?
00:51:33.000 I do personally think, I am not, I'm not personally not an anarchist.
00:51:37.000 I do like some government.
00:51:39.000 You know, I'm, I'm, I'm, I would consider myself liberal.
00:51:42.000 So a little bit more government than a libertarian would want.
00:51:44.000 Yeah.
00:51:45.000 That means, I like the cops.
00:51:47.000 I like being able to have a justice system that, for the most part, tries to get it right.
00:51:51.000 Not perfect, not all the time.
00:51:53.000 Better than some random dude, you know, because in Anarcopolco, some lefty hippies were doing drugs or something, and somebody ran in and just shot them and killed two of the guys.
00:52:03.000 Dang.
00:52:04.000 Yeah, just went bang, bang, bang, and what do you do?
00:52:06.000 Can't do anything about it.
00:52:07.000 And so I see that stuff and I'm like, that's why I like police.
00:52:11.000 Not because the cops are going to just magically appear and stop this.
00:52:14.000 You've got to defend yourself, you've got your responsibilities.
00:52:16.000 True.
00:52:16.000 But that we have a justice system that will, to whatever degree you're happy with, like sometimes it's not perfect, they'll try to stop these people so they don't do it again.
00:52:24.000 Yeah.
00:52:25.000 And that does reduce the amount of crimes and murder.
00:52:28.000 And now the best part, man.
00:52:30.000 New York City.
00:52:31.000 They defunded the police.
00:52:32.000 One billion dollars.
00:52:34.000 They reassigned 600 anti-crime unit cops.
00:52:38.000 Crime skyrocketed.
00:52:39.000 And now guess what?
00:52:40.000 They're asking for it back.
00:52:41.000 Local activists.
00:52:42.000 Begging for it back.
00:52:43.000 Please.
00:52:44.000 Please bring back our police.
00:52:46.000 Local activists in New York are saying, like, no, we want our cops back.
00:52:50.000 The crime's going up.
00:52:51.000 Help.
00:52:52.000 And what do we get from AOC?
00:52:53.000 What a surprise.
00:52:54.000 AOC is like, well, it'll be like the suburbs.
00:52:57.000 They just want bread.
00:52:58.000 Really?
00:52:59.000 Well, before she even got to that statement, well, what does defunding the police look like?
00:53:03.000 Oh, it looks like the suburbs.
00:53:05.000 Where everyone has, like, a big, large property, and they're a nice house?
00:53:11.000 Like, really?
00:53:12.000 That's what it's gonna look like?
00:53:13.000 Sure, AOC.
00:53:13.000 And less dense population.
00:53:15.000 Less dense population.
00:53:16.000 People aren't living on top of each other.
00:53:17.000 Hmm.
00:53:18.000 That's what it's gonna look like to you?
00:53:20.000 Where does she live?
00:53:21.000 She is Mary Antoinette.
00:53:23.000 It's true.
00:53:24.000 She comes out and says, defund the police means defund, and this isn't enough.
00:53:27.000 We need more.
00:53:28.000 Meanwhile, the people who actually live in New York are saying, please help us.
00:53:31.000 We need our police.
00:53:33.000 And is she listening?
00:53:34.000 No.
00:53:35.000 She's saying maybe they need bread.
00:53:36.000 I love that, dude.
00:53:37.000 That's Mary Antoinette.
00:53:38.000 It is.
00:53:38.000 Let them have bread.
00:53:39.000 Let them have bread.
00:53:40.000 Maybe they're stealing bread while they're shooting each other.
00:53:43.000 Wow, man.
00:53:44.000 And beating cops up.
00:53:46.000 Yeah, dude.
00:53:46.000 And shooting each other.
00:53:48.000 In front of their kids.
00:53:50.000 You know what's funny?
00:53:51.000 We talked about Donald Trump setting up these luxury buildings to get rich people to come back to pay taxes.
00:53:56.000 Now Trump's gone.
00:53:59.000 All these people in New York are ragging on him all the time.
00:54:02.000 And now their tax base is eroding due to their horrifying job dealing with COVID.
00:54:07.000 They blame him for it, but it's all Cuomo's fault.
00:54:09.000 Yeah, absolutely.
00:54:10.000 It's all de Blasio's fault, to be fair.
00:54:11.000 And mostly Cuomo.
00:54:12.000 They're both to blame.
00:54:14.000 Yeah, I think Bill de Blasio first.
00:54:16.000 Yeah.
00:54:16.000 And then Cuomo, but both of them.
00:54:18.000 They probably they were probably talking about it.
00:54:20.000 It's like they're both standing there yelling, we saved the city.
00:54:23.000 And like everybody's dead from Covid.
00:54:25.000 Patrick and SpongeBob.
00:54:26.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:54:27.000 We did it.
00:54:27.000 We saved the city.
00:54:29.000 Congratulations.
00:54:30.000 It ran amok, killed a bunch of people, and that was them.
00:54:35.000 You know, there's Bill de Blasio's people early on saying, come down to Chinatown.
00:54:40.000 Nancy Pelosi was doing the same thing.
00:54:42.000 And they want to try and blame Trump for it.
00:54:43.000 Look, man, you can criticize Trump who's not doing good enough, but you have to do better than him.
00:54:48.000 Like, if you're doing a really bad job, like imagine this.
00:54:51.000 Imagine, like, the kitchen is a disaster zone.
00:54:57.000 And, like, you're cleaning it, and I'm sitting there literally throwing garbage on the floor, and I'm like, Adam, why don't you clean up your mess?
00:55:03.000 And you're like, first of all, I didn't make the mess.
00:55:05.000 Second of all, you're literally throwing garbage on the floor.
00:55:06.000 Like, you can't be... By the way, this actually happens.
00:55:10.000 No, this doesn't happen.
00:55:11.000 No, I'm just kidding.
00:55:13.000 My point is...
00:55:14.000 You can criticize Trump, for sure.
00:55:17.000 But I think it's fair to say, if you've got criticism, can you do better?
00:55:22.000 One of the problems I have with—actually, you know what I'll do?
00:55:25.000 I'm going to give a shout-out to a Casey Neistat video and try and connect these into a similar idea about relativity.
00:55:32.000 So they're saying Trump's doing a bad job.
00:55:34.000 Relative to what?
00:55:35.000 Who do we compare COVID to?
00:55:38.000 Other countries that are smaller and have different, you know, border controls?
00:55:43.000 You know, when you look at these European nations that are much smaller than the U.S.
00:55:45.000 and they were able to lock down their borders, that certainly helped.
00:55:48.000 We didn't lock down our borders between states.
00:55:49.000 It's up to the states to do not Trump.
00:55:50.000 And remember, we are called the United States for a reason.
00:55:54.000 They're different states.
00:55:55.000 Every state has its own laws.
00:55:57.000 It has its own governors.
00:55:58.000 They do their own thing.
00:55:59.000 They straight up told Trump to F off.
00:56:01.000 Like, don't even try to tell us what to do.
00:56:04.000 We're running the show.
00:56:05.000 We're the governors.
00:56:06.000 And he did try.
00:56:06.000 He was like, here's my guidelines.
00:56:08.000 Yeah, he tried to help.
00:56:09.000 And they were like, nah, nah, nah.
00:56:10.000 Those are your guidelines.
00:56:11.000 This is the United States.
00:56:13.000 This is what we do.
00:56:13.000 But then as soon as that corner turns, they flip it on him.
00:56:18.000 Like, well, now we can blame him.
00:56:19.000 Now we're going to switch it around.
00:56:21.000 It's relativity.
00:56:22.000 Relativity.
00:56:22.000 Is Trump doing a bad job on COVID?
00:56:24.000 In order to say yes or no, you need a control United States, which does not exist.
00:56:29.000 That's a good point.
00:56:30.000 And, and so I see a lot of people saying, well, look at Italy.
00:56:33.000 How come they, well, Italy is like one state.
00:56:36.000 Okay.
00:56:36.000 Well still, how come Italy versus, versus what, New York?
00:56:38.000 Cause that's real, New York is the epicenter.
00:56:40.000 Right.
00:56:41.000 Well, what about Pennsylvania?
00:56:43.000 Do we have border restrictions stopping people from traveling between New York and Pennsylvania?
00:56:48.000 No, you can just go boop boop boop boop boop, and Trump can't do anything about that.
00:56:52.000 So it's not the same, it's very hard to quantify.
00:56:55.000 But this brings me to the general lefty argument, because I was watching this video from Casey Neistat, it's an older video, and it's called something like being rich versus being poor, and he basically talks about how he was reading this article, That said, this guy makes $1.2 million a year and he hates his life.
00:57:12.000 He's miserable, his office sucks, and he's unhappy.
00:57:15.000 And they talk about a janitor who loves his job and feels so helpful.
00:57:18.000 He's a janitor at a hospital.
00:57:21.000 And they bring up a really good point about purpose and fulfillment.
00:57:24.000 Basically, if you're a real estate agent and you're making millions of dollars, do you feel fulfilled?
00:57:32.000 Are you actually helping the world be a better place?
00:57:34.000 Probably not.
00:57:35.000 So what the guy said was, when I die, will anyone care that I got a 2% return on my investment?
00:57:41.000 But the janitor is saying, I may not be a doctor, but without me, people will literally die.
00:57:46.000 Like, I need to clean up medical waste and make sure the hospital is functioning in such a way that the doctors can bring these people in safely and securely.
00:57:53.000 And so what I'm doing is very important.
00:57:56.000 Purpose.
00:57:56.000 People need a purpose.
00:57:57.000 In this video he talks about how he says, you know, they claim money can't buy you happiness, but it can.
00:58:05.000 And the reason he gives is that everybody's trying to find happiness, love, purpose, and fulfillment, and others.
00:58:12.000 These are like...
00:58:13.000 You know, human desires.
00:58:15.000 And then he mentions that, then he like folds this thing up and it says healthcare, clothes, you know, housing.
00:58:22.000 And he was like, when you are rich, you can just pay for all of these problems to go away.
00:58:27.000 And then these other things, you're just free to explore.
00:58:29.000 So money can literally solve your problems.
00:58:33.000 And I take, I disagree.
00:58:35.000 I humbly disagree.
00:58:36.000 And this goes back to a lot of what we're saying about the far left, about AOC.
00:58:40.000 Think about what health care means today.
00:58:43.000 Think about what housing means today.
00:58:45.000 You know, so... Standards of living everyone's used to.
00:58:49.000 The standards of living in this country are so incredibly high.
00:58:52.000 The only reason you think your health care is a problem is because you know someone has it better.
00:58:56.000 That's a good point.
00:58:58.000 Think about it.
00:58:58.000 That's a good point.
00:58:59.000 A hundred years ago, if you got cancer, what do you do?
00:59:01.000 You know what?
00:59:02.000 Guess I'll die.
00:59:02.000 More importantly though, they don't know that there's people in the world that have it less.
00:59:09.000 Well, that's what I mean.
00:59:11.000 That's the other side of the point.
00:59:11.000 But that's what everyone ignores.
00:59:14.000 They only see someone that's doing better.
00:59:16.000 Capitalism is so bad!
00:59:19.000 Is it?
00:59:20.000 Or are you just clueless to what's really going on in the world?
00:59:24.000 Because that's what I'm seeing.
00:59:25.000 The meme is, graduates with, you know, feminist dance degree, and then complains capitalism isn't working.
00:59:33.000 But, you know, when I watch this video, I'm like, if you stubbed, you know, if you got a cut in the middle of the woods, you know, two or three hundred years ago on an important journey, you'd look down and go, oh man, guess I'll die.
00:59:46.000 I'm kidding, but that's like the joke.
00:59:48.000 But it could.
00:59:49.000 If you're not... Lose your leg!
00:59:51.000 ...near water where you can open, like, take out the sliver of the, you know, you stub your toe on a piece of wood.
00:59:56.000 Burn it, I guess.
00:59:57.000 A bit of wood.
00:59:57.000 You could cauterize it.
00:59:58.000 Infection.
00:59:59.000 I have no idea.
01:00:00.000 I cut my foot, my ankle, on coral when I was 12.
01:00:03.000 Just cut it open.
01:00:04.000 It was bad.
01:00:05.000 I mean, I got it sewn up.
01:00:06.000 Everything was fine.
01:00:08.000 Seven months later, I got a bone infection in my right hip.
01:00:12.000 I was bedridden for months.
01:00:14.000 I couldn't walk.
01:00:15.000 It was really bad.
01:00:17.000 But that's the kind of thing that we don't even think about.
01:00:19.000 It's like, sure, yeah, if I cut it, I could have maybe sewed the wound shut, whatever would have been fine, but the infection that got me later on in life.
01:00:28.000 People are clueless.
01:00:29.000 I'm not saying people should be resigned to poverty.
01:00:31.000 I'm just saying keep some perspective.
01:00:34.000 Perspective is everything.
01:00:35.000 Just because other people might have it better doesn't mean you have it worse.
01:00:39.000 We've gradually improved everything.
01:00:41.000 I was watching a rerun of Outer Limits, that show from, like, the 90s.
01:00:45.000 Oh, because I just watched it.
01:00:46.000 I love that show.
01:00:47.000 One of them, it's these two guys who get teleported.
01:00:49.000 They get time-traveled to the Civil War.
01:00:52.000 One of the guys is an actual medic.
01:00:53.000 And so, he gets captured by the Confederates.
01:00:57.000 He's dressed like a Yankee for a reenactment.
01:00:59.000 And they force him to perform a surgery on a guy who got shot in the leg.
01:01:02.000 And they're like, we need you to amputate.
01:01:04.000 And he goes, no, I don't need to amputate.
01:01:06.000 And the colonel or whatever is like, if you do not amputate, this man will die.
01:01:09.000 And he goes, this man will not die.
01:01:11.000 Because he had his bag with him and he pulled out a little tube of like, you know, Neosporin or something, some antibacterial.
01:01:17.000 He just rubbed it on the leg and it was like, good to go.
01:01:19.000 And then the next day, like the guy's like, you saved my life and it saved my leg.
01:01:23.000 It was some simple, something we take for granted that we go, you go to Walgreens and you're like, how much for this tube?
01:01:28.000 I stubbed my toe.
01:01:29.000 I'm like, that'll be $2.
01:01:29.000 And you're like, $2 fine.
01:01:33.000 Or you like take some mouthwash and you like splash it on because you're like, well, I guess I'll use this.
01:01:38.000 And it's antiseptic.
01:01:41.000 So I look at a lot of these lefties that think they should be Rockefeller.
01:01:47.000 They think they should be Donald Trump.
01:01:49.000 And I'm like, no, no, no, no.
01:01:51.000 There will always be people who are better, who are richer.
01:01:55.000 I mean, there's one person out of 7.2 billion that is the richest person.
01:02:00.000 Literally, not everybody can be completely equal in all these terms.
01:02:04.000 You can be equal in poverty.
01:02:05.000 Right.
01:02:05.000 Go to a country like Venezuela.
01:02:07.000 Even there, you're not completely equal.
01:02:08.000 There's still wealthy people who have military power and control.
01:02:10.000 And they'll do the, well, I mean, his dad was rich.
01:02:14.000 That's true.
01:02:15.000 Okay, well then think about your great-grandchild.
01:02:18.000 Think about that child and make sure that they're set up.
01:02:24.000 Think about them.
01:02:25.000 Don't think about yourself anymore.
01:02:26.000 Think about how Trump got that.
01:02:30.000 And his great-grandfather came here.
01:02:32.000 He wasn't super wealthy.
01:02:34.000 I mean, I'll talk about it more tomorrow.
01:02:37.000 But basically, that's what you've got to do.
01:02:40.000 Plan for the future.
01:02:41.000 Think about the future and be like, I need to better myself today so that when my child grows up, they're going to be better off.
01:02:46.000 Whoa, whoa, whoa, Adam.
01:02:48.000 That sounds like you're talking some white supremacy here.
01:02:50.000 Planning for the future?
01:02:51.000 Yeah, whatever.
01:02:53.000 That's a stupid article.
01:02:54.000 I don't want to give credence to that.
01:02:56.000 That's stupid.
01:02:58.000 I don't even like joking about it.
01:02:59.000 It's stupid.
01:03:00.000 This is a serious issue.
01:03:01.000 If you seriously think that there's other people out there that are doing better than you, and that's what you're focused on, your focus is wrong.
01:03:08.000 You need to focus on yourself.
01:03:10.000 That's what people don't want to do anymore, and that pisses me off.
01:03:12.000 Well, well, well.
01:03:13.000 I'm seeing it everywhere.
01:03:14.000 But hold on.
01:03:15.000 What?
01:03:16.000 The way I'd put it is, if you look at somebody, and they're better off than you, and your reaction is, I deserve what they have, your next question should be, what do I have to do to accomplish it?
01:03:28.000 That's exactly right.
01:03:29.000 Boom.
01:03:29.000 And then, more importantly, within the law.
01:03:33.000 Because some people will be like, I got me a knife, I'm gonna go take what I deserve.
01:03:37.000 And some people are gonna be like, I got me a Molotov, and I'm gonna go demand the government give me what I deserve.
01:03:41.000 You gotta earn it.
01:03:42.000 You deserve what you build.
01:03:44.000 And then they say, but capitalism is exploitative.
01:03:46.000 And you know what, man?
01:03:48.000 You're free.
01:03:49.000 You are free.
01:03:50.000 I'll tell you what, why don't any of these people understand entitlement?
01:03:54.000 Do they buy a shirt?
01:03:55.000 Do they wear shirts?
01:03:57.000 Do you want to wear a hat?
01:03:59.000 Do you use headphones?
01:04:01.000 Do you communicate on your phone every day?
01:04:04.000 They turn such a blind eye to the benefits of what it has brought us, even down to antiseptic, which is super important.
01:04:16.000 Go ahead, what?
01:04:16.000 We should start a fund.
01:04:19.000 Raise a bunch of money to buy a big plot of land and build a commune and invite all of them to live there for free and bask in true utopian equality.
01:04:31.000 What would they do?
01:04:32.000 Well, if you want food, you gotta grow it.
01:04:34.000 But they did that.
01:04:35.000 They did that.
01:04:35.000 You told me about the farm in New York.
01:04:37.000 I'm saying, let's make it a thing.
01:04:38.000 It's like, so all these people are like, we demand equality and socialism, bro.
01:04:42.000 We got a socialist commune ready to go, exactly as you dreamed it up.
01:04:46.000 And if you work hard, you'll be fine.
01:04:48.000 And I literally mean it in the best ways possible.
01:04:50.000 But you know, I expect it to happen.
01:04:51.000 Warlord?
01:04:52.000 No, well, yeah.
01:04:54.000 Someone would show up with a gun and be like, I'm gonna sit right here and you give me grapes.
01:04:57.000 Yep.
01:04:58.000 And then they're, no, but like, let's say we actually set up a real commune, because they exist.
01:05:03.000 There's one, it's really, really great.
01:05:05.000 Okay.
01:05:06.000 They all vote on who they let in, and they have like a limit on how many people are allowed, but it really does function properly.
01:05:10.000 I've seen, there's a few, and they exist over in Europe also, some in the UK.
01:05:15.000 I got mad respect.
01:05:15.000 And some here.
01:05:16.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:05:17.000 But they built it.
01:05:18.000 And they work hard.
01:05:18.000 And they work hard.
01:05:19.000 Every single day, you don't stop working.
01:05:22.000 But they love it.
01:05:23.000 People don't want to work either.
01:05:25.000 Hard work is another one of those lists.
01:05:27.000 But check it out.
01:05:28.000 The people who actually started these communes, they're hard workers.
01:05:32.000 That's true.
01:05:32.000 They invited in hard workers, and the people who don't work hard are free to go at any time.
01:05:36.000 No, no, no.
01:05:37.000 Are kicked out.
01:05:39.000 If you don't work hard in those kind of environments, you are not welcome.
01:05:42.000 You don't get food, and then you leave.
01:05:46.000 No, they're very strict.
01:05:48.000 I've watched a few things on those kind of places, and they are strict.
01:05:53.000 If you don't do the work, you're not welcome there.
01:05:55.000 And that makes sense to me.
01:05:56.000 What I'd love to do is I'd love to set up a little commune, and I will pay your travel ticket in style.
01:06:03.000 You'll come down, you can bring whatever you want, and then get to tillin' that field, baby!
01:06:07.000 You want food tomorrow, you better work!
01:06:09.000 chop chop, up at sunup, go to bed, go to bed three or four hours after sundown,
01:06:15.000 after you've finished all your work.
01:06:17.000 And if that's what you're into, some people really are into that.
01:06:21.000 But it's like, people just need to experience hard work.
01:06:25.000 Because like I told you, I had friends who did, and they immediately were like,
01:06:28.000 wow, I like being American.
01:06:31.000 I like cheap Chinese plastic crap.
01:06:33.000 I don't want to work.
01:06:35.000 These people, I'll tell you what, man, in New York City, now they're moving out because these jobs are remote.
01:06:40.000 Could you imagine what it must be like to work at BuzzFeed?
01:06:42.000 No.
01:06:43.000 Listen.
01:06:43.000 I would never.
01:06:45.000 When I was 18, I got a job at American Eagle Airlines, which is American Airlines' regional branch.
01:06:51.000 And it was eight hours a day, lifting like 30 to 50,000 pounds of luggage.
01:06:57.000 All day, every day, just loading up, you know, planes.
01:06:59.000 Or if you're in the bag room, everybody hated that.
01:07:01.000 It wasn't so bad, actually.
01:07:03.000 The reason people don't like the bag room is because you sit in front of a conveyor belt, watching bags, and you have like a certain zone.
01:07:09.000 So you're like these cities, you have to grab their bags, load them up.
01:07:12.000 Okay.
01:07:13.000 And so it actually wasn't that bad because sometimes you'd sit around doing nothing.
01:07:16.000 When you're loading planes, however, planes come in every like 40 minutes.
01:07:20.000 Right, so you're constantly going to a different spot.
01:07:22.000 No, no, no.
01:07:22.000 When the planes are coming in 40 minutes, you have actually like a 15-minute break in between.
01:07:25.000 Oh, alright.
01:07:26.000 You know, like a 20-minute break.
01:07:28.000 So, I do this job.
01:07:30.000 Hard work all day, every day.
01:07:33.000 The first time I saw a news office, I just busted out laughing.
01:07:38.000 Laughing!
01:07:39.000 I walk in, half the chairs are empty, and I'm like, oh wow, a lot of empty chairs.
01:07:43.000 Oh, no, they're still working from home.
01:07:44.000 And I'm like, working from home.
01:07:46.000 Yeah.
01:07:47.000 Do they have to come in?
01:07:48.000 I mean, you know, we like it when they do, but not really.
01:07:51.000 What do they do?
01:07:51.000 They just do clickbait stuff.
01:07:55.000 A couple articles per day.
01:07:56.000 Like, what is, you know, so this person does our music blog.
01:07:59.000 They would write like, I just, you know what Vice articles are like.
01:08:02.000 Oh yeah.
01:08:03.000 It's like, I listened, I smoked a bunch of weed and then listened to this old Sublime album and dude, it was crazy.
01:08:08.000 And they would just write like this.
01:08:09.000 Period.
01:08:10.000 The end.
01:08:10.000 And I'm like, you know how much they got paid?
01:08:12.000 At Vice?
01:08:13.000 Like 30k.
01:08:15.000 A year.
01:08:15.000 Which was double what you would make lifting heavy bags.
01:08:18.000 But I'll tell you what, some of these companies, it's like, you write listicles about Brad Pitt's junk.
01:08:24.000 Like, look at all these bulges!
01:08:25.000 Here's a list!
01:08:27.000 And they're getting paid 30, 40k a year.
01:08:29.000 I'm not gonna pretend like it's a lot of money for New York City, but relative to somebody making minimum wage lifting heavy bags, I couldn't help but bust out laughing.
01:08:36.000 This is what you consider work?
01:08:39.000 Wow!
01:08:40.000 And I'll tell you what, man.
01:08:42.000 I work for these companies.
01:08:44.000 Like, I gotta be real, they have no idea what they're doing.
01:08:47.000 Half the time they're sitting around, doing nothing.
01:08:49.000 Right.
01:08:50.000 Not even, they're just sitting there.
01:08:51.000 And I'm like, what are you doing?
01:08:52.000 I don't know.
01:08:54.000 You gonna write?
01:08:54.000 I'll tell you what I am doing.
01:08:55.000 I'm getting paid.
01:08:57.000 That's right.
01:08:57.000 Yup.
01:08:58.000 On salary.
01:08:59.000 Ugh.
01:09:00.000 That sounds boring.
01:09:01.000 That's a crazy thing about the media industry.
01:09:04.000 That when they fall apart and they fire everybody, you wonder why.
01:09:06.000 It's like these people aren't producing things.
01:09:09.000 It's not real.
01:09:10.000 It's not.
01:09:11.000 It's not real, man.
01:09:12.000 The media bubble, it does feel like it's crumbling.
01:09:14.000 Here's my solution.
01:09:16.000 I've figured it out, everybody.
01:09:17.000 I've figured out a way to save the news industry.
01:09:21.000 I'm going to recreate the vice office, but instead of people sitting around confused at the time, I'm going to make them make birdhouses.
01:09:28.000 They're going to be building birdhouses instead of sitting around doing nothing.
01:09:32.000 Hear me out.
01:09:32.000 We sell the birdhouses and make a profit.
01:09:35.000 And then of course, whenever they have time, they can write one of their stupid articles about smoking pot and listening to Sublime or something.
01:09:42.000 No downtime!
01:09:43.000 If you're not reading the news, you're building a birdhouse!
01:09:45.000 You got that?
01:09:46.000 It's pretty good.
01:09:47.000 There you go.
01:09:48.000 We sell those birdhouses online.
01:09:50.000 Maybe we can do like knitting.
01:09:53.000 Crochet and stuff.
01:09:54.000 Make scarves.
01:09:55.000 We'll make beanies!
01:09:56.000 Whatever you're good at.
01:09:56.000 Everybody must be making beanies.
01:09:59.000 I like this idea.
01:10:00.000 The beanie idea.
01:10:01.000 You must be manufacturing.
01:10:03.000 To be fair though, my vision of a functioning media company would be literally, everything you do is work.
01:10:11.000 And so this is actually something they tried doing with Vice but never took off.
01:10:14.000 Where it was like, when we would go out on documentary shoots for say, oh we're going to a riot.
01:10:21.000 We went to Ukraine.
01:10:24.000 And they asked, can you film other things with your downtime?
01:10:27.000 Like, you gotta eat right?
01:10:28.000 Can you film yourselves eating?
01:10:30.000 Hey, we're in Ukraine, and they just served us up some cabbage.
01:10:34.000 And we're gonna eat Ukraine cabbage.
01:10:36.000 Look how excited we are!
01:10:38.000 Boom, article.
01:10:39.000 No, not an article, a video.
01:10:40.000 Oh, a video, yeah.
01:10:41.000 Because then you can make really quick videos where, like, here's what food is like in this place.
01:10:43.000 It's actually really clever.
01:10:45.000 That's a good point.
01:10:45.000 Never did it.
01:10:47.000 But it was a good idea.
01:10:48.000 Can you always be working?
01:10:51.000 Yeah, but they actually did a show that people really loved about food.
01:10:54.000 I can't remember what the guy's name was.
01:10:56.000 Action Bronson or something?
01:10:57.000 Was that his name?
01:10:58.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:10:58.000 And he did a food thing?
01:10:59.000 Yeah, I think he did a food show.
01:11:01.000 Yeah, and everyone really loved it, I guess.
01:11:02.000 He's pretty funny.
01:11:03.000 Yeah, man, but... Wow.
01:11:06.000 Such little work in that city of New York City.
01:11:09.000 I'd rather do that.
01:11:09.000 You want to hire me to do that?
01:11:10.000 I'll fly around and find all the crazy food.
01:11:14.000 Oh, you want to quit the podcast?
01:11:15.000 No.
01:11:18.000 But we will.
01:11:18.000 When we expand, we're going to do silly food stuff and skateboarding and whatever.
01:11:24.000 But I'll tell you what, we have a serious problem in this country with the general balance of wealth and labor.
01:11:30.000 I think that's actually a fact.
01:11:32.000 I'm pretty left when it comes to the wealth inequality stuff.
01:11:36.000 There's a lot of things that I think are strange that conservatives would support or that liberals would support that are probably contradictory.
01:11:45.000 There are wealth inequality problems in this country.
01:11:48.000 The easiest way to put it is, why is someone getting paid three times as much to write about Brad Pitt's junk compared to someone who actually will build or fix something?
01:11:58.000 Good point.
01:12:00.000 I tell you man, look, when you're like running your own business, doing like carpentry or plumbing or some kind of actual trade, you'll make good money.
01:12:07.000 But why is a senior editor who sits at a computer collecting articles from other people and then just reads them and says, I'm going to publish this, getting paid more.
01:12:16.000 They're not making anything.
01:12:17.000 We could literally just delete all of these companies.
01:12:19.000 We'd be better off for it.
01:12:21.000 Probably.
01:12:21.000 Look, some news, a lot of, we need news.
01:12:24.000 We need real journalism.
01:12:24.000 What we don't need are these trash blogs, you know, like BuzzFeed and Vox.
01:12:31.000 BuzzFeed springs to mind.
01:12:32.000 Yeah, BuzzFeed.
01:12:34.000 How do we rebalance that?
01:12:36.000 You know, when I was little, I always agreed that it's crazy that baseball players, that, you know, basketball players get paid all this money and scientists and tradesmen and firefighters don't.
01:12:46.000 And that's like a common lefty kind of perspective.
01:12:48.000 What is that?
01:12:51.000 There's a CEO that gave up his salary to take like a crazy cut.
01:12:57.000 Do you know who I'm talking about?
01:12:58.000 Super stressful.
01:13:00.000 I don't remember who it is.
01:13:00.000 It was a company in Seattle, right?
01:13:02.000 He was talking about it.
01:13:03.000 He was like, look, my company wouldn't exist without the workers, so I'm going to pay myself significantly less and all of that would go.
01:13:13.000 What, it's not real?
01:13:15.000 I have to pull it back up, but I'm pretty sure it was because people don't understand how businesses work.
01:13:22.000 I'm not going to say anything specific about this guy because I don't know the specific guy you're referencing, but I think I do.
01:13:26.000 Let me just tell you something.
01:13:27.000 When you own a corporation, you can say, I'm going to reduce my salary to, you know, $50,000 a year to be the same as the people.
01:13:37.000 Accountant?
01:13:37.000 Yes, just issue it all as profits at the end of the year.
01:13:40.000 Right.
01:13:40.000 So you can publicly announce your salary is being reduced.
01:13:43.000 Right.
01:13:44.000 I'm not saying that.
01:13:45.000 Like, look, if you work, if you get a job at a company and they're like, what's your salary requirement?
01:13:49.000 You say $50,000 a year and they say you're hired.
01:13:51.000 And then you're like, but it turns out the CEO makes $5 million.
01:13:54.000 That's too bad.
01:13:55.000 That's his company, you don't gotta work there.
01:13:57.000 What I mean is, why is a person literally writing about, you know, going to a rave and taking acid and then passing out in the bathroom and getting paid more, or at least the same as, a dude who literally builds houses?
01:14:11.000 Like, if you are the lowest tier apprentice, you know, showing up and being like, I have no idea how this works, but I can carry tools for you, you deserve more than someone who's like, I saw Brad Pitt's junk today, he was popping out in a tabloid magazine, and here's a list of all the times a celebrity's junk has appeared.
01:14:29.000 Why are you getting paid for that?
01:14:32.000 Why do people care about that?
01:14:34.000 Well, that's what I was going to say.
01:14:35.000 To be fair, people care.
01:14:37.000 And people are more willing to essentially buy or cater to those products,
01:14:42.000 and that's why they make so much money.
01:14:43.000 But I kind of feel like there's something wrong with that.
01:14:48.000 And I don't know if you can actually solve it.
01:14:50.000 Because then we get into the conversation about capitalism, you know, free market versus controlled or command economy.
01:14:55.000 Yeah.
01:14:56.000 But it does bum me out that it's part of the conversation we've had before that if humans ever shake hands with aliens, it'll be not because they overcame nuclear weapons, but because they overcame the Xbox.
01:15:06.000 PlayStation would be more accurate.
01:15:08.000 Right, considering, you know.
01:15:09.000 But at the time, when the quote was said, Xbox was up there, you know, like, hey, everybody's got an Xbox.
01:15:14.000 But no, but it is true, man.
01:15:16.000 It bums me out that we allocate so much of our energy as humans to dumb nonsense.
01:15:21.000 It's true.
01:15:22.000 I don't know how you solve that though, because free will, individuality.
01:15:26.000 That's why we need a space race.
01:15:28.000 That's why we need Trump's, what's the Artemis project?
01:15:31.000 That's why Elon Musk, and then going from the moon to Mars.
01:15:35.000 Because we need to inspire a culture to look beyond writing stories about doing drugs at a rave.
01:15:41.000 Yeah, everyone's so complacent in this world that we live in right now.
01:15:45.000 That's an issue too.
01:15:46.000 People are comfortable and then are so comfortable they're forgetting what it's like to not be comfortable.
01:15:52.000 They're forgetting what it's like to not have all these amazing amenities that this world now offers us to everyone.
01:15:59.000 Most people.
01:16:00.000 You need water?
01:16:01.000 Go get some water.
01:16:03.000 In some states, it's illegal to say no to someone who's asking for water.
01:16:07.000 I'm talking about Arizona, specifically.
01:16:10.000 There's probably other places, you know, maybe Texas, you know, somewhere along the south.
01:16:14.000 You said it was illegal to ask for water?
01:16:16.000 No, no, no.
01:16:16.000 To deny someone water.
01:16:17.000 Like, if you walk in and say, oh, water, I need water, it's like, okay, here you go.
01:16:21.000 They have to give it to you.
01:16:21.000 They have to give it to anyone.
01:16:22.000 Because in a place like Arizona, you could really die.
01:16:24.000 Yep, you could.
01:16:25.000 I just had a terrifying thought.
01:16:26.000 What's that?
01:16:27.000 What if the simulation is already over?
01:16:30.000 And now it's just running its course?
01:16:33.000 The credits are rolling?
01:16:34.000 And that's why everything's getting crazy, right?
01:16:36.000 Yeah, maybe.
01:16:37.000 Have you played Civilization?
01:16:38.000 I haven't, no.
01:16:39.000 So, in Civilization, there's multiple ways to get a victory.
01:16:42.000 For those that aren't familiar, it's a video game where you literally start from, like, you know, nomadic tribes and then develop technology and then eventually you have these big civilizations and you go to war or whatever.
01:16:51.000 There's several ways to win.
01:16:52.000 There's like a space race victory where you can go and colonize other planets.
01:16:55.000 Cool.
01:16:56.000 Cultural victory where you become the dominant culture of the planet.
01:16:59.000 War victory by just blowing everybody up and taking over their land.
01:17:02.000 But once you beat the game, you can choose to just keep playing anyway.
01:17:06.000 Okay.
01:17:07.000 And then the game objective is done, and you're just doing whatever.
01:17:10.000 So that's where you think we are?
01:17:11.000 Yeah, maybe this simulation ended a long time ago.
01:17:14.000 You know what I was thinking about?
01:17:15.000 Why was there a space race in the 60s?
01:17:17.000 What was the motivation of the United States to say, we must be better than the Soviets, that we don't have any of that today?
01:17:25.000 Honestly, it was just fear, because...
01:17:28.000 The American public thought that because they were in space, they could spy on us from space.
01:17:33.000 So it was laced with fear of them being able to, you know, shoot us from the stars, essentially, you know?
01:17:39.000 Right.
01:17:40.000 And that's what spawned it into... So, you know, it was pretty much fear that led it into the new space race.
01:17:47.000 So how have we come to this point where everyone feels like they've beaten the game?
01:17:51.000 Where it's like you've got nothing to do, you're bored, you're angry.
01:17:54.000 There's no fear.
01:17:55.000 You've got food, you've got video games.
01:17:57.000 There's no purpose.
01:17:58.000 You've got whatever you want at the tip of your fingers.
01:18:00.000 Yeah.
01:18:00.000 No fear, to be honest.
01:18:01.000 I think that's a good point.
01:18:03.000 We were concerned for our safety.
01:18:04.000 Yep, that's why.
01:18:05.000 Our security wasn't guaranteed.
01:18:07.000 We had to strive to be better, to protect ourselves.
01:18:09.000 Now we don't.
01:18:09.000 Well that's why I want to talk about Chicxulub, and if you don't know what that is, that is the asteroid that destroyed the dinosaurs.
01:18:15.000 There's a layer of molten material all around the world from the same time period, and that's because it struck the planet and killed 99% of life on this planet.
01:18:28.000 That can happen!
01:18:32.000 We see, like, there's a comet flying by right now.
01:18:35.000 If it's nighttime where you are, go outside and look.
01:18:39.000 It's cool.
01:18:40.000 NEO, what is it called?
01:18:41.000 NEO something?
01:18:41.000 I don't remember.
01:18:42.000 I don't know, but we talked about the news of the flybys.
01:18:45.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:18:45.000 Where, like, the orbit gets really close and it's like, woo!
01:18:48.000 It's like, you know, everyone's so desensitized by Armageddon, the movie, whatever, however many other... Deep Impact.
01:18:57.000 Deep Impact.
01:18:58.000 Yeah, they make clone movies.
01:18:59.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, sure.
01:19:00.000 Whatever.
01:19:00.000 It's just movies.
01:19:01.000 And it's like, well, yeah, well, that could actually happen.
01:19:05.000 We are flying through... Our sun isn't sitting in one spot.
01:19:10.000 It's flying.
01:19:11.000 It's flying through space.
01:19:12.000 We are traveling around a traveling star.
01:19:16.000 So we don't know if there's a rock out there that's just floating, that's going to enter our solar system and run into our planet.
01:19:25.000 There was, um, ow-mow-now-mow or something.
01:19:29.000 Ow-mow-mow or whatever?
01:19:30.000 Ow-mow-mow.
01:19:31.000 Yeah, that was an interstellar object that entered our solar system, orbited around the sun one time, and dipped out.
01:19:37.000 Yeah.
01:19:38.000 I mean, we got lucky.
01:19:40.000 That's scary.
01:19:40.000 It didn't hit us.
01:19:41.000 But those kind of things exist.
01:19:42.000 So that could happen.
01:19:44.000 I'm not trying to, like, instill fear, but it is something that we need.
01:19:48.000 That's why I love space.
01:19:50.000 Space is something we don't think about as much anymore, but it's out there, like, the immensity of what space is.
01:19:58.000 So we need a meteor false flag.
01:20:01.000 I mean, I guess, you know, sure.
01:20:04.000 We need an announcement where it's like, There's a meteor in the sky and we've got five years to build interplanetary defense.
01:20:12.000 And then everyone comes together and then it's like, you know, Independence Day.
01:20:15.000 We will not go quiet.
01:20:17.000 Yeah, maybe.
01:20:18.000 It's not going to be aliens, though.
01:20:20.000 It's going to be a meteor.
01:20:21.000 I feel like that's the largest threat to the planet.
01:20:25.000 You know, always, at all times.
01:20:27.000 Climate change didn't work, though.
01:20:28.000 Because we are floating through space.
01:20:31.000 It's like people stopped thinking about it because it's just, you know, movies, whatnot.
01:20:35.000 They tried climate change.
01:20:37.000 We just had a pandemic and that couldn't even do it.
01:20:46.000 So we used to have fear behind us and a family ahead of us.
01:20:49.000 Now they're taking our families and there's no fear behind us.
01:20:52.000 What are we doing?
01:20:53.000 That's a good point.
01:20:53.000 Maybe it's because we have no families.
01:20:56.000 No fear, no families.
01:20:58.000 Great.
01:20:58.000 Think about it.
01:21:00.000 The fear is gone.
01:21:01.000 Yep.
01:21:02.000 For some reason, that even though we're watching in California, they're forcefully injecting hormones into this kid, people are still saying, well, you know, I'm worried about my kid, so I'll just do nothing.
01:21:13.000 No, but for real, like, aren't you scared for your children?
01:21:15.000 I would be.
01:21:16.000 People aren't.
01:21:17.000 They're like, well, I am in the sense that I could lose my job, but not in the sense that the future is going to be a nightmarish, dystopian hellhole that I'm okay with.
01:21:25.000 There's no fear about what you leave for your children.
01:21:28.000 Why not?
01:21:29.000 Because we're taught to worry about yourself.
01:21:33.000 That's what we are told.
01:21:35.000 You can be anything.
01:21:36.000 You're a star.
01:21:38.000 You can do whatever you want.
01:21:43.000 Move out of your family home.
01:21:45.000 Get your own place.
01:21:47.000 If you still live with your parents, you're not an adult yet.
01:21:51.000 You know, you gotta live on your own, you gotta be your own person.
01:21:54.000 So it's like the community of how humans have gotten to where we are is being lost.
01:21:59.000 I feel like when you raise people to be self-centered, but they still have their natural instinct to protect their kids, you get what we have today.
01:22:08.000 No real fear for the future their children will inherit, but a general fear for their immediate safety.
01:22:14.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:22:15.000 It's dread of the present.
01:22:18.000 If we were scared that, like, what if the Soviets build a satellite that could launch, you know, what do they call it?
01:22:23.000 Rods from God?
01:22:24.000 The Tungsten Rods.
01:22:25.000 Tungsten Rods.
01:22:26.000 Baltimore City, and then everybody dies.
01:22:28.000 And that scared them and said, we must defend ourselves.
01:22:30.000 But today, they're like, what if these people literally inject my children with hormones and then arrest them for saying naughty words?
01:22:37.000 Well, you know, I don't know.
01:22:40.000 We're not gonna say anything.
01:22:41.000 Or like the... I hate bringing this list up, but it's on that list that said... Well, we have the story.
01:22:47.000 The media is still... Oh, this... Oh, this... They're talking about it, aren't they?
01:22:50.000 This is the... Yeah, calling out white culture.
01:22:52.000 Calling out the biased training people as racist.
01:22:56.000 Well, I guess, but before we get to that, I just wanted to say on that list that I guess we're about to talk about, it says delayed gratification is something that they're damning.
01:23:05.000 Abolish.
01:23:06.000 It's a bad thing.
01:23:07.000 It's like, that is exactly the problem.
01:23:11.000 If it's just instant gratification, you're not getting anything.
01:23:13.000 You're not doing anything.
01:23:15.000 You're just, that's, you know, that's playing, you know, the worst games just, you know, It in every aspect of your life just to get it get it now instead of thinking about your children Why do you think all these people who have a lot of money that the travel?
01:23:31.000 I'm bringing up the Trump thing about how his grant his dad It's like furthered this thing and it's like sure generational wealth Well, if you are thinking and jealous of generational wealth start the generation Delayed gratification is knowing that your grandchild is gonna be better off because of what you're doing right now Society grows great When people plant trees whose shade they know they will never sit in.
01:23:54.000 Where's that from?
01:23:55.000 I think it's a Greek proverb.
01:23:57.000 Is it Greek?
01:23:58.000 It could be more true though.
01:23:59.000 Yeah, but nobody believes it anymore.
01:24:01.000 Right, because we're comfortable.
01:24:03.000 No, but I think because we've been raised to be selfish.
01:24:05.000 Yep.
01:24:06.000 Man, think about how... Comfortable and selfish.
01:24:09.000 It used to be all for the kids.
01:24:11.000 Yep.
01:24:12.000 Now it's all like, I guess I have kids.
01:24:14.000 Whatever.
01:24:15.000 Well, there's a compelling argument to be made that the reason that we're so selfish is because our parents worked their butts off so that we could have the best life ever.
01:24:23.000 Like, literally the best life that anyone's ever had.
01:24:25.000 That was our parents' goal.
01:24:26.000 That was their parents' goal.
01:24:27.000 After World War II, they came back and they were like, we have to make life really good for our kids.
01:24:31.000 That's what I'm saying.
01:24:32.000 We won.
01:24:32.000 We beat the game.
01:24:33.000 They nailed it.
01:24:33.000 Yeah, man.
01:24:34.000 They did.
01:24:35.000 I know my dad worked his butt off to raise me.
01:24:37.000 We beat the game.
01:24:38.000 The last two generations ago was when the game screen popped up and says, congratulations, you've won.
01:24:44.000 You've created the best possible life for your children, would you like to keep playing anyway?
01:24:47.000 And they just set the controller down and went outside.
01:24:50.000 And they pressed autoplay and were like, hey I'm gonna go.
01:24:53.000 I don't really care.
01:24:55.000 You ever see that story about the dude who left, he had like a civilization game from like, it was running for like 20 years or something?
01:25:03.000 There was a really funny story.
01:25:04.000 It was like Civilization II from the 90s.
01:25:06.000 Okay.
01:25:07.000 And apparently he had been playing the game for 20 years and it was a post-apocalyptic wasteland of constant nuclear bombs going off.
01:25:13.000 Oh man.
01:25:13.000 Because people would just... The war could never end because the hatred ran so deep.
01:25:18.000 And every time they nuked a city, the nuclear waves would make it impossible to recover.
01:25:21.000 But then they would all just build another nuke and then nuke each other and it was just a... The year was like 20,000 and it was a nightmarish...
01:25:28.000 What if that's where we're going, man?
01:25:30.000 No.
01:25:30.000 We beat the game.
01:25:32.000 We did it.
01:25:33.000 We've got the best lives.
01:25:35.000 We got instant communication, we got running water, clean water.
01:25:38.000 Now, not for the rest of the world, but in America.
01:25:40.000 Yeah, the universe is out there.
01:25:43.000 The entire universe.
01:25:44.000 Yeah, man.
01:25:44.000 We're a pale blue dot.
01:25:46.000 Thank you, Carl Sagan.
01:25:48.000 People need to watch him.
01:25:49.000 People need to know their history.
01:25:50.000 They got to know what we've been through.
01:25:52.000 We need an energy revolution.
01:25:54.000 It's happening.
01:25:55.000 What's the latest?
01:25:56.000 Solid-state batteries?
01:25:58.000 Well, that is actually an amazing innovation that has happened.
01:26:02.000 That's going to change the game.
01:26:03.000 It is, yeah.
01:26:04.000 I think it allows... They don't degrade.
01:26:06.000 That's the key.
01:26:07.000 Exactly.
01:26:07.000 Yeah, that's the key.
01:26:08.000 And they don't blow up.
01:26:09.000 And they don't blow up, exactly.
01:26:10.000 Those two things are fairly important.
01:26:13.000 Incredibly, who are we kidding?
01:26:14.000 It's incredible.
01:26:15.000 But I mean, it's not necessarily enough for the energy output we would need for like, the current level of, you know, Well, there's, um, graphene is another big thing that they just figured out.
01:26:28.000 Me and Ian talk about it a bunch.
01:26:29.000 It's, uh, we can basically take any carbon based anything and turn it into graphene and graphene can be used for everything.
01:26:36.000 Yeah.
01:26:37.000 It's an incredible, we, we, we have it on a very small scale right now, but eventually we can, we're going to have to go dig up our trash from dumps and, and be able to, we're going to be able to use it to make more graphene.
01:26:49.000 And that's incredible.
01:26:50.000 That's so cool.
01:26:50.000 So that's something that we're going to be able to do.
01:26:53.000 So that's a change.
01:26:55.000 And we're going to need that for space travel.
01:26:57.000 Think about all the trash, whatever we come up with, we can make graphene out of it and then use that graphene as more stuff.
01:27:05.000 Hey look, we had that plague.
01:27:07.000 What year was the plague?
01:27:08.000 1918?
01:27:08.000 What are you talking about?
01:27:09.000 No, no, no, the literal plague, the Black Plague.
01:27:11.000 Oh gosh, that was like 1300 years ago?
01:27:12.000 But after that followed the Renaissance or something, didn't it?
01:27:15.000 Like, you have this level of technology, but everybody is, you know, straining for resources.
01:27:22.000 Then a large portion of the population dies because of the plague, but the level of technology remains, so then everybody flourishes and grows rapidly again.
01:27:30.000 It's kind of like breathing, it's like whoosh!
01:27:32.000 Well, that's why that's why Elon wants to occupy Mars, because we need we need to expand or that will happen naturally.
01:27:40.000 And that that's I agree with him.
01:27:42.000 We we we absolutely Mars.
01:27:44.000 Mars doesn't have a magnetic field, and I don't think it has the gravity to maintain an atmosphere.
01:27:48.000 It doesn't matter.
01:27:49.000 We do domes.
01:27:50.000 We have to figure out a way to move on.
01:27:52.000 We have to.
01:27:53.000 For sure.
01:27:53.000 For sure.
01:27:53.000 We we we must.
01:27:55.000 Maybe we just underground subterranean.
01:27:59.000 Maybe we you know, we do.
01:28:00.000 You know, the movie.
01:28:02.000 Have you ever seen Red Planet?
01:28:05.000 Uh, Val Kilmer?
01:28:06.000 Yeah, yeah, the first people to go to Mars.
01:28:07.000 I don't remember it.
01:28:08.000 I saw it when it first came out, I think.
01:28:09.000 The robot turns evil or something.
01:28:11.000 So, you know what we need to do?
01:28:12.000 We need to combine the movie The Core.
01:28:15.000 Was that Bruce Willis in The Core?
01:28:17.000 I don't remember either.
01:28:18.000 The... who was it?
01:28:19.000 I don't know.
01:28:20.000 They have to like restart the Earth's core or something?
01:28:23.000 Yes.
01:28:24.000 So here's what we do.
01:28:25.000 Alright.
01:28:26.000 We take the actors from the movie Deep Impact and the actors from the core and we bring
01:28:30.000 them together and they go to Mars and they kickstart the core...
01:28:35.000 I'm just kidding.
01:28:35.000 I don't know how you would actually do it.
01:28:37.000 I don't even know if it makes sense.
01:28:39.000 No, no, no.
01:28:39.000 First, you've got to defund Hollywood and make it more inspiring for kids to want to be the scientists that come up with the answers.
01:28:49.000 Well, Hollywood's a great tool for that.
01:28:51.000 I know, but it's not being used correctly.
01:28:53.000 Exactly.
01:28:53.000 So what we need is people want to be actors.
01:28:55.000 People want to be influencers.
01:28:57.000 They want to be TikTok stars, YouTubers, like that is not helping anything.
01:29:02.000 That's them thinking they are superstars, which is what they've been taught.
01:29:06.000 That's what they've been taught.
01:29:07.000 It's I'm a superstar, so I should be able to do and be famous.
01:29:10.000 And it's like, OK, well, you got to you got to have a reason that people are going to want to watch you.
01:29:15.000 If you don't if you don't fill yourself with something to give to these people, you're nothing.
01:29:20.000 So you gotta make something of yourself first, and they're ignoring that fact.
01:29:25.000 Look at who succeeded in this open environment, pranksters.
01:29:29.000 I can't name one prankster.
01:29:30.000 I can name... I'm not gonna personally call them out.
01:29:33.000 Okay.
01:29:34.000 But there are a lot of high-profile prank channels.
01:29:36.000 A lot of videos were getting views by... And are they still famous?
01:29:39.000 They got banned.
01:29:40.000 Oh.
01:29:40.000 Because YouTube was like, yo, this is... When left to their own devices, people were like, I'm gonna make a video where I go around saying racial slurs.
01:29:47.000 And then they just one-up each other.
01:29:48.000 And it was working.
01:29:49.000 Exactly.
01:29:50.000 One-up each other.
01:29:50.000 So there was a series of videos where they would go around saying certain things that sound like racial slurs when said quickly enough.
01:29:56.000 Yeah.
01:29:56.000 like hello my neighbor.
01:29:58.000 Okay.
01:29:59.000 But they would say it really, really fast.
01:30:01.000 Oh I see.
01:30:02.000 And then people would be like, what did you say to me?
01:30:03.000 I got a teacher that got really mad at me because I said, what the, hello teacher.
01:30:08.000 And they were like, how dare you?
01:30:10.000 And then took me to the principal's office.
01:30:12.000 The principal was like, get out of here.
01:30:13.000 Like, what are you talking about?
01:30:15.000 I was like 11 or something.
01:30:16.000 What, this is why I'm not a laissez-faire capitalist.
01:30:19.000 But I don't think I would ever, I think the answer is something like,
01:30:23.000 can we come together to fund movies that inspire people.
01:30:27.000 I mean, like Interstellar was awesome.
01:30:29.000 I agree.
01:30:30.000 Great movie.
01:30:31.000 We need more cultural cohesion around doing better.
01:30:35.000 But you know what one of the problems is?
01:30:37.000 This critical race theory stuff thinks that science is evil whiteness that must be abolished.
01:30:42.000 Also crazy.
01:30:43.000 When Elon Musk launched that car into space, they were like, look how crazy these billionaires are.
01:30:48.000 What a waste.
01:30:49.000 He could have, you know, given people health care or something.
01:30:51.000 And it's like, you realize that money was spent on Earth.
01:30:54.000 Right.
01:30:54.000 People have jobs.
01:30:55.000 They paid taxes.
01:30:57.000 And they needed to have weight.
01:30:59.000 He was trying to do something cool and inspirational.
01:31:01.000 No, before they decided to do that, it was because they needed to have weight to payload that the rocket would work.
01:31:08.000 So he was like, oh, well, I'll put a star, a car out there.
01:31:12.000 And you know what it did?
01:31:13.000 It did inspire a bunch of kids to get into space programs, which Trump brought back.
01:31:19.000 The Artemis program.
01:31:20.000 It's incredible stuff.
01:31:22.000 He gave them back their funding, and I love that.
01:31:26.000 What did the Obama administration think was going to happen?
01:31:28.000 We were going to create a consumerist humanity that just loves plastic?
01:31:31.000 I yeah.
01:31:32.000 Plastic crap.
01:31:33.000 Yeah, I don't know what that cheap plastic crap would put a clock in it.
01:31:35.000 Made in China.
01:31:36.000 Yeah, we need something better.
01:31:38.000 Yeah, we need a mission.
01:31:40.000 And right now the mission is this weird religion, intersectionalism.
01:31:44.000 Right.
01:31:45.000 Yeah, man.
01:31:45.000 Well, if we don't if we don't get on top of that, what's going to happen to us in 20 years?
01:31:50.000 We're just a bunch of like sunken eyed, gaunt, angry antifa intersectionalists with shaved heads.
01:31:58.000 I don't think that disease is spreading as far as it may seem.
01:32:02.000 Well, now that the media is slowly getting on board with calling it out as literal white supremacy, perhaps it'll be better.
01:32:09.000 But dude, it's in the army, it's in the federal government, it's in every school, it's in every grade school.
01:32:15.000 Dude, I was out for a Christmas dinner, a Christmas breakfast with my family.
01:32:19.000 And I was talking to my mom and my sister about that Equity comic where it shows three people standing in front of a fence.
01:32:26.000 You know that one?
01:32:26.000 If those are not familiar, it's like there's a tall guy, a medium guy, and a short guy.
01:32:30.000 And the tall guy and the medium guy can see, and the short guy can't.
01:32:34.000 And they said, in equality, everybody gets a crate.
01:32:36.000 Well, the tall guy and the medium guy don't need a crate.
01:32:38.000 In equity, they give two crates to the short guy so he can see now too.
01:32:42.000 And I was talking about it and I was explaining why it doesn't make sense and why it's a manipulation.
01:32:48.000 And my niece, who's like eight, she goes, they show us that in school.
01:32:52.000 And I was like, they do?
01:32:54.000 And she was like, yeah.
01:32:55.000 And I was like, this specific image?
01:32:56.000 And she goes, yeah, they taught us about it.
01:32:58.000 And I was like, oh man.
01:33:01.000 That is indoctrination to a religion.
01:33:04.000 What I explained was...
01:33:06.000 It's very simple to quantify the idea of equity when you're looking at a fence with crates.
01:33:10.000 But now there's like 50 different versions of this stupid comic explaining what real justice is.
01:33:15.000 And I said, how do you determine, how do you quantify access and privilege when you're judging people based on like 200,000 different immutable characteristics?
01:33:24.000 Are blue eyes better than brown eyes?
01:33:26.000 What if you have crooked teeth?
01:33:27.000 What if you have blonde hair?
01:33:29.000 What if you dyed your hair?
01:33:30.000 What if you personally choose to do something?
01:33:32.000 There's no way to quantify that.
01:33:33.000 And so I was talking to my family about it, but she's being indoctrinated by her teachers to believe this critical race theory stuff.
01:33:40.000 Equity.
01:33:41.000 So yeah, it's pervasive.
01:33:42.000 Yeah, and then why would anyone want to be like a, who knows, like any sort of a job if it pays the same as everyone else?
01:33:50.000 You know, why would I do that when I could just do the easier job?
01:33:53.000 I'll just do the easy job.
01:33:55.000 That's the problem with socialism.
01:33:56.000 Everyone's just going to want to do the easy job.
01:33:58.000 No one's going to want to do the hard job.
01:34:00.000 Yep.
01:34:00.000 And if everything pays the same, all the hard jobs won't get done anymore.
01:34:05.000 And then society will fall apart.
01:34:08.000 So there needs to be an aspect.
01:34:10.000 And they're not thinking about that.
01:34:12.000 But that's the problem.
01:34:14.000 Always.
01:34:15.000 They're not thinking about it.
01:34:16.000 They're ignorant of the facts of what is actually going on.
01:34:19.000 I think a mixed economy makes the most sense.
01:34:22.000 I do believe... And that's what we are, aren't we?
01:34:24.000 We are.
01:34:25.000 I do think a lot of people are not... They're not motivated by money.
01:34:29.000 Some people are motivated by money and they take jobs where they manipulate money to make money.
01:34:33.000 I'm not a fan.
01:34:35.000 But when it comes to the ability to hand someone cash and take it back, well that exists.
01:34:39.000 People are going to be able to exploit that.
01:34:41.000 I do think it's possible to create a culture where people are motivated by passion and success for their mission, less so money.
01:34:49.000 It exists.
01:34:50.000 Because at a certain point, I know people who make a ton of money who literally don't care.
01:34:54.000 Because they're like, my mission is I gotta build this thing.
01:34:56.000 Like, I'm sure Elon Musk isn't focused.
01:34:58.000 Elon Musk isn't thinking like, how can I make a billion dollars?
01:35:01.000 He's thinking, how can I get to Mars?
01:35:02.000 How can I occupy Mars?
01:35:04.000 Exactly.
01:35:05.000 He's very blunt about it.
01:35:07.000 However, Elon Musk is a man with a mission.
01:35:10.000 True.
01:35:10.000 And vision.
01:35:11.000 That's true.
01:35:12.000 And he worked really, really hard to make this money and succeed and now he can do it.
01:35:15.000 If you create a society where everybody gets paid the same, like in communism, how would you get the visionaries like Elon Musk to actually be in that position to fund a rocket mission?
01:35:25.000 Well, on an even more basic level than that, why would you study so hard as to become something like a doctor?
01:35:31.000 Well, why would you want to do something that's really hard and has a really high I don't agree with that.
01:35:36.000 Well, that's...
01:35:37.000 No, she makes a good point, though.
01:35:38.000 That's the inverse, though.
01:35:40.000 That is the person who wants to learn how to save people, so they're going to push themselves
01:35:44.000 to become a doctor so that that's what they're doing.
01:35:47.000 Even if they're getting paid the same, they're still...
01:35:49.000 They have the benefit of getting, you know...
01:35:53.000 The reason why people...
01:35:54.000 The love of saving someone.
01:35:56.000 The reason why people would want to do a job, even if it was harder to get to that job's position, is because they're passionate about being a doctor.
01:36:02.000 Right.
01:36:02.000 Like, I always wanted to be a doctor.
01:36:03.000 I'll do whatever it takes.
01:36:04.000 But that's great and all.
01:36:07.000 Being a doctor, like, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
01:36:09.000 Sure.
01:36:10.000 But that still doesn't take away the fact that there's all the jobs that... Who's going to be the garbage guy?
01:36:15.000 Right.
01:36:15.000 I say garbage guy.
01:36:16.000 The garbage human.
01:36:17.000 You know what you're going to do?
01:36:18.000 Garbage person.
01:36:19.000 The garbage person.
01:36:22.000 It's really simple.
01:36:24.000 And this is what really, really bothers me about you capitalists.
01:36:27.000 In our communist utopia, when we need someone to take out the trash and be the garbage man, I just pull out my Glock and I point at them and say, get on your knees and take the trash out!
01:36:36.000 Otherwise, to the gulag with you!
01:36:38.000 Problem solved.
01:36:40.000 Then we have our utopia.
01:36:42.000 And once we force people to do the jobs that no one else wants to do, there will be peace.
01:36:49.000 Utopia.
01:36:50.000 You see, that's the issue.
01:36:52.000 In a capitalist system, people say, I don't want to take the trash out.
01:36:54.000 And then you go, I'll give you a hundred bucks, and they'll go, I'll take the trash out.
01:36:57.000 There you go.
01:36:57.000 Boom.
01:36:58.000 Yeah.
01:36:58.000 Incentive.
01:36:59.000 Exactly.
01:37:00.000 That's why I think a mixed economy makes sense.
01:37:02.000 That's why communism just will never work.
01:37:04.000 Because you need a gun.
01:37:06.000 And there's always going to be the person that thinks that they don't need to do that.
01:37:11.000 That they're the ones who knows how to do everything better, how to fix it all, or, you know, organize and manage.
01:37:18.000 Actually, Uh, John over there, he's the best at taking the trash out.
01:37:22.000 So John's gonna be the trash guy now.
01:37:24.000 You know what I hear pays a ton of money?
01:37:26.000 What?
01:37:26.000 Crime scene cleanup.
01:37:27.000 Really?
01:37:28.000 Yeah, you know why?
01:37:28.000 I, cause it's hard to get blood out maybe?
01:37:31.000 Brain matter and skull bits.
01:37:32.000 Yeah, that's why.
01:37:33.000 And you're gonna be on the ground being like, let me try and get this bit of brain fragment out of the carpet unless it's tough.
01:37:38.000 Gross.
01:37:38.000 Crime scene cleanup pays a lot.
01:37:39.000 Huh.
01:37:40.000 I wouldn't want to do that.
01:37:42.000 Yes.
01:37:42.000 Everything.
01:37:42.000 Everything releases.
01:37:44.000 I wouldn't want to do that.
01:37:45.000 Dude, people have no idea what it's like, a dead body.
01:37:48.000 You know, you know, you know what happens when you die, right?
01:37:52.000 Yes.
01:37:53.000 Brigham Mortis.
01:37:54.000 No.
01:37:55.000 When all the smooth muscle just relaxes, you void your bowels.
01:38:02.000 So then they bring in these people who have these kits and full hazmat suits and you get
01:38:06.000 paid a pretty penny because nobody wants to do it unless you get paid good enough.
01:38:09.000 I remember when I was a lot younger, there was an advertisement for it saying it was like $100, $150 an hour.
01:38:14.000 Because that's what you gotta pay when you get someone to come in and clean up.
01:38:18.000 A corpse!
01:38:19.000 Yeah.
01:38:20.000 And you gotta, yeah man.
01:38:22.000 So that's, at least people are willing, you know, are willing to do it because they feel like they'll be rewarded for it.
01:38:28.000 But in the communist system, I really don't believe you'll have an easy time finding someone passionate about waiting around in sewers.
01:38:35.000 Right.
01:38:36.000 Reminds me of Waterworld.
01:38:37.000 Remember that guy who was in the oil tank?
01:38:39.000 Yeah, he's one of my favorites.
01:38:41.000 So in the movie Waterworld, They have an oil tanker, and there's a guy who tests his job by just telling him how much oil they have.
01:38:47.000 So he's just in a little boat, in oil.
01:38:50.000 Yeah, in the oil tanker.
01:38:51.000 And then, when he calls for help, the guy spits on him and he goes, thank you!
01:38:55.000 Like, good luck finding somebody who's gonna do this job.
01:38:58.000 Right.
01:38:59.000 We gotta read Super Chats.
01:39:00.000 Okay.
01:39:00.000 Yes, it's time.
01:39:01.000 We got a super chat here from commander 232.
01:39:03.000 He says, Adam, much respect to you for grinding the research.
01:39:07.000 I get inundated with text every day from work with updates because I am an FPS officer.
01:39:13.000 So I know you I so I know how you feel.
01:39:15.000 And so I want to give up give up some days but I can't because I also serve in the army and the oath I swore.
01:39:21.000 Thank you for that, and thank you for serving.
01:39:24.000 Right on.
01:39:24.000 Appreciate that.
01:39:25.000 Xander says, dude, I smoked a bunch of weed and listening to Timcast IRL and it's crazy.
01:39:29.000 Spoofo!
01:39:30.000 He said spoofo.
01:39:32.000 I get it.
01:39:32.000 Spoofo.
01:39:34.000 I speak that language.
01:39:37.000 AlphaZeroOmega says, Been following Tim since around the Milo fiasco at Berkeley.
01:39:42.000 He is a fine example of where hard work and dedication can get you in a free country.
01:39:46.000 I appreciate all of you, and I'm glad that you are committed to doing what you do.
01:39:49.000 Power to you.
01:39:50.000 Thank you very much, good sir, for supporting the channel.
01:39:53.000 VillaMusicDude, oh this is two of two, so we got, where's one of two?
01:39:57.000 It didn't pop up, huh?
01:39:59.000 Two of two.
01:40:00.000 Alright, I guess we'll have to find it.
01:40:01.000 That's gonna be difficult.
01:40:03.000 YouTube does it sometimes.
01:40:04.000 Alright, we'll come back to this.
01:40:06.000 DeplorablePyroCaptainGunbeard says, Dear commies of all genders, red, yellow, black, white, you all have the same vital hit points.
01:40:14.000 Isn't equality grand?
01:40:16.000 Thank you very much.
01:40:16.000 You know what I forgot to say?
01:40:17.000 If you haven't already, and you want to jump in some super chats, feel free to do so.
01:40:21.000 We'll try to read them as we can.
01:40:22.000 But also, Adam?
01:40:26.000 I'm rather subdued right now.
01:40:29.000 It's been a heavy episode.
01:40:30.000 It's been a heavy day for me.
01:40:31.000 You want me to yell?
01:40:31.000 Yeah, you do it.
01:40:33.000 Smash the like button.
01:40:35.000 That's pretty good.
01:40:35.000 That wasn't even a yell.
01:40:36.000 That was like a growl.
01:40:38.000 A rock growl.
01:40:40.000 Smash the like button!
01:40:42.000 But in all honesty though, smash the like button.
01:40:45.000 Do it for me.
01:40:45.000 Do it for me.
01:40:46.000 Do it for Lydia over there.
01:40:47.000 That's right.
01:40:48.000 Do it for Tim.
01:40:48.000 I appreciate it.
01:40:49.000 Do it for all three of us.
01:40:50.000 Do it for yourself.
01:40:52.000 Make you feel good.
01:40:53.000 You owe yourself a smash.
01:40:56.000 Well, you should all Biden the like button.
01:40:58.000 That's right.
01:40:59.000 Come up right behind it.
01:41:01.000 Put your arms around that like button.
01:41:02.000 Oh my goodness.
01:41:04.000 Get a nice little sniff.
01:41:05.000 Inhale deeply.
01:41:06.000 Joe Biden.
01:41:07.000 Bidening the UFO there.
01:41:08.000 Bidening the UFO here.
01:41:09.000 All right, let's see.
01:41:12.000 Wugnutman has put in a request already to play Melancholy Hellhounds.
01:41:16.000 Oh.
01:41:17.000 Oh, wow.
01:41:17.000 We have an official request.
01:41:19.000 First request, yeah.
01:41:20.000 That's cool.
01:41:20.000 That one's good.
01:41:21.000 I'll play it.
01:41:22.000 I'm going to do it.
01:41:23.000 He requested it.
01:41:24.000 I'll play it.
01:41:24.000 That'll be the first thing I play.
01:41:26.000 TalksToMunch says, You should invite Andrew Schultz from the Brilliant Idiots podcast onto the show, or consider going on his podcast.
01:41:32.000 I think there's a lot of topics you could discuss, and it could be a great conversation.
01:41:35.000 That dude is hilarious!
01:41:39.000 Joseph Spiro says, Tim keeps saying anyone can start standing up against what's going on, saying if everyone stood up at the same time that it'd have an impact.
01:41:47.000 Only influential leaders can synchronize behavior like that.
01:41:50.000 You are correct, which is why it requires a cultural movement of people just deciding right now, no matter what, no matter what I risk, no matter what I lose, I will stand up.
01:42:00.000 Remember when Trump tweeted khafifi?
01:42:03.000 And you know what people claimed it meant?
01:42:05.000 What?
01:42:05.000 I will stand!
01:42:06.000 Yes.
01:42:07.000 That's what they were claiming in there.
01:42:08.000 Really?
01:42:08.000 Yeah.
01:42:09.000 So weird.
01:42:09.000 They were like, it's actually Arabic for, I will stand.
01:42:12.000 And it was supposedly saying something like, despite the negative press... Coverage?
01:42:15.000 No, no, no.
01:42:16.000 I thought.
01:42:16.000 They were claiming that Covfefe was Arabic for, I will stand.
01:42:19.000 And that what Trump was saying is, despite the negative press, I will stand.
01:42:22.000 Oh, that's right.
01:42:23.000 And it was like the stupidest thing I'd ever heard.
01:42:25.000 The dude mashed some buttons on accident and accidentally pressed send.
01:42:28.000 That's what happened.
01:42:29.000 And then he's like, oh, I like that.
01:42:30.000 I'll keep that.
01:42:30.000 And then when everyone went nuts on Covfefe, he rolled with it and it was hilarious.
01:42:33.000 Yep.
01:42:34.000 But anyway, we got a large super chat here from Drew38.
01:42:37.000 He says, hey guys, Tim's part Asian, just in case you didn't know.
01:42:42.000 Oh, I did.
01:42:43.000 I did just hear that.
01:42:44.000 Is that confirmed?
01:42:45.000 Oh, no, I need to double check that.
01:42:47.000 I need a news guarded source on that.
01:42:48.000 News guarded source.
01:42:49.000 I'll take a news guard for that.
01:42:50.000 QuietGuitaristFan says, haven't superchatted in a while.
01:42:53.000 Here's a cool 50 for your troubles.
01:42:55.000 Recently started getting into the Naked Communist.
01:42:58.000 Talks a lot, talks a lot about the methods of Marxists and Socialists.
01:43:01.000 Interesting read.
01:43:03.000 Hope y'all are great.
01:43:04.000 Smash the like button.
01:43:05.000 Smash it.
01:43:05.000 Will do.
01:43:06.000 Chad Jensen says, you are doing the Lord's work.
01:43:08.000 You are a warrior, Tim.
01:43:10.000 Thank you very much.
01:43:11.000 Nathan Trimmingham says, hey y'all, I'm looking into getting a longboard, but I'm 6'4 and 300 pounds.
01:43:16.000 Any suggestions?
01:43:18.000 Well, the first thing I would always say is go to a store that sells longboards and try them all out, but because that's not really the case that you can do right now, it would depend on your budget.
01:43:34.000 Just look up longboards.
01:43:35.000 Get a wide base, a longer wheelbase.
01:43:40.000 You don't want to get a small board.
01:43:42.000 You know, you're clearly a big, big person.
01:43:44.000 You just want, you want to be comfortable on the board.
01:43:46.000 It's easier to find your balance on a skateboard, long board
01:43:49.000 if it's a significantly longer board.
01:43:51.000 So get something with a long wheelbase and that'll make it much easier.
01:43:56.000 And some, some wide, you know, where you probably have a large shoe size.
01:44:01.000 So it's easier to get your, your base on a bigger board.
01:44:05.000 Wow.
01:44:05.000 Arts Theo says, as a Cuban immigrant, I'd really hate for my family and I to
01:44:09.000 jumped out of the frying pan into the fire. Let me know if you want me to take
01:44:14.000 a couple of libs on a real tour of Cuba.
01:44:16.000 People still don't have running water there. Yeah, people don't know anything
01:44:19.000 about what life is like outside of this country.
01:44:21.000 I mean, obviously people do. I mean these specific people.
01:44:23.000 Yeah, they clearly don't.
01:44:24.000 Xander Klein says, dude... oh yeah, I read that one.
01:44:27.000 That was a good one.
01:44:28.000 Alright, let's see what we got here.
01:44:30.000 Solarth says, anything, including labor, is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
01:44:34.000 What someone deserves is completely subjective.
01:44:37.000 I agree, I agree.
01:44:38.000 Exactly.
01:44:39.000 VillaMusicDude says, one, let the free market do what it is supposed to do.
01:44:44.000 Stop bailing everyone out.
01:44:45.000 Let debt liquidate.
01:44:46.000 Return to commodity currency so government is forced to reduce spending.
01:44:50.000 Remove price floors and ceilings.
01:44:52.000 Those are solid.
01:44:52.000 And then he says, let demand do what it's supposed to do.
01:44:55.000 Sound money, not fiat.
01:44:57.000 Increased purchasing power, short terms of capitalism are painful, but when you increase
01:45:01.000 debt you pull away resources that would help recover it faster to non-productive sectors
01:45:05.000 prolonging pain.
01:45:06.000 Those are solid.
01:45:07.000 Yeah, I hear you.
01:45:08.000 That makes a lot of sense.
01:45:09.000 Space Monkey says, brave new world, that's their vision.
01:45:12.000 Just like that.
01:45:14.000 Yikes, man.
01:45:14.000 I look into that, cool.
01:45:14.000 Graham Hancock and many others have discussed the Taurid meteor belt.
01:45:18.000 We passed through it twice a year, June and November I believe.
01:45:21.000 Tunguska in 1908, possibly what hit Greenland 12,000 something years ago that caused the
01:45:26.000 Younger Dryas also.
01:45:28.000 Wow.
01:45:29.000 Yikes man.
01:45:29.000 I look into that, cool.
01:45:30.000 Yeah.
01:45:31.000 Ashley Torres says Antifa equals terrorists.
01:45:35.000 They're under federal and military jurisdiction.
01:45:39.000 Special forces detain terrorists by intel.
01:45:42.000 Cyber Command slash NSA then give military tribunals.
01:45:45.000 Terrorists forfeit constitutional rights in due process.
01:45:47.000 Domestic terrorists don't have American peers.
01:45:51.000 I think the issue with domestic terrorism that they've said is that Americans have constitutional rights.
01:45:57.000 And so if you're engaging in particular political messaging when you engage in an action, it's free speech.
01:46:03.000 But then I would question hate crime laws.
01:46:06.000 If you're engaging in a speech, then how could that be regulated?
01:46:09.000 Your intention, you know what I mean?
01:46:10.000 In which case wouldn't terror stand as well?
01:46:12.000 The difference being hate is based on an immutable characteristic and terror being based on politics.
01:46:18.000 I don't know.
01:46:19.000 Not a lawyer.
01:46:21.000 iRezTV says, Tim, I was raised conservative in Washington where everyone was blindly liberal and I never heard convincing arguments and remained Republican because it made sense to me.
01:46:29.000 I found you.
01:46:30.000 It actually brought me more to the left.
01:46:32.000 I appreciate that y'all have the sense to be intellectually honest.
01:46:36.000 I guess.
01:46:37.000 You know, the thing, the thing I think is I hate being wrong.
01:46:41.000 You know what I mean?
01:46:41.000 I do too.
01:46:42.000 So I always want to make sure I have- Who likes being wrong?
01:46:44.000 Apparently there are a lot of people who have found that the easiest thing to do is pretend to be right.
01:46:49.000 No, no, no.
01:46:50.000 The difference is, though, they think they're right.
01:46:52.000 They believe the core of their being that they're right.
01:46:57.000 And that's an issue.
01:47:00.000 That's why they look at anyone else that critical thinks that's willing to look at all sides as evil.
01:47:05.000 Because, whoa, whoa, whoa, you just don't instantly believe what I believe, you're evil.
01:47:08.000 Period.
01:47:09.000 Because I'm right.
01:47:10.000 It's a belief system.
01:47:11.000 It's why when you present them with evidence, they say, I don't need evidence.
01:47:14.000 Right, and I hear that a lot.
01:47:16.000 I've heard it a lot lately.
01:47:17.000 My thing is like, what's really challenging now is, I want to make sure that I'm not wrong.
01:47:23.000 Yeah.
01:47:23.000 You know, I don't want to deceive people.
01:47:24.000 I want to know that I have my facts correct.
01:47:26.000 Boom.
01:47:27.000 And so I'll look for sources and try and verify them.
01:47:29.000 Yep.
01:47:29.000 But we're at a point now where sources are almost meaningless because, like we talked about in this earlier segment, they just make things up.
01:47:34.000 Storytellers.
01:47:35.000 Pulling things out of context and just say what they want to say.
01:47:37.000 Yep.
01:47:37.000 So now anyone can pull any source for anything.
01:47:41.000 Dude, the fake news problem has reached critical mass.
01:47:44.000 I agree.
01:47:44.000 It's beyond just someone making a blog and lying.
01:47:47.000 It's literally at the point where CNN is lying non-stop all day because they know they can't compete with fake news websites.
01:47:54.000 So, think about it.
01:47:55.000 There were a bunch of stories years ago about these dudes who made a blog that just wrote fake news all day about right-wing issues.
01:48:01.000 Okay.
01:48:02.000 Because they knew they would get shares, they knew they'd make money.
01:48:05.000 CNN realized no matter what they did, they would never compete with fake news.
01:48:10.000 You can't!
01:48:11.000 If CNN does a story that was real and it said, you know, Donald Trump shakes hand of, you know, Japanese Prime Minister, who cares?
01:48:19.000 And then these other companies know they could write a story where they said Donald Trump punches Japanese Prime Minister in the face and it would get a million shares and they didn't care if it was real or not.
01:48:27.000 CNN realized we'll lose because they can do this.
01:48:32.000 They have a right to free speech and they can say it.
01:48:34.000 What do we do?
01:48:35.000 We gotta get as close to the sun as possible without falling from the sky.
01:48:38.000 So CNN said, let's play, baby.
01:48:41.000 Chris Cuomo lies about having COVID.
01:48:43.000 They just go straight for the fake news.
01:48:44.000 Just make it up.
01:48:45.000 Jim Acosta, just make it up.
01:48:47.000 And there's the money.
01:48:48.000 And now the ratings are better than ever.
01:48:50.000 Well, not really better than ever, but, you know, the ratings are actually up.
01:48:55.000 I love how the language is corrupted around whatever this is supposed to mean.
01:48:58.000 I love it.
01:48:58.000 It's not a real culture. There's a Korean saying that translates to you don't avoid poop because it smells you
01:49:04.000 avoid it because it's disgusting Spin the smash button UFO the like I love how the language
01:49:10.000 is is corrupted around whatever this is supposed to mean The Joker says I'm 35 and have two small kids 8 and 4 and I
01:49:17.000 fear for their future also All the debt we keep accruing.
01:49:22.000 China, these morons that talk socialism.
01:49:24.000 Most sane parents are terrified for our kids.
01:49:27.000 Spin the UFO.
01:49:28.000 I will spin it.
01:49:29.000 I'll keep spinning.
01:49:29.000 I will spin it.
01:49:30.000 It's okay.
01:49:31.000 I will spin.
01:49:32.000 I'll never deny.
01:49:33.000 Despite the negative press coverage, I will spin the UFO.
01:49:36.000 That's right.
01:49:36.000 It's getting a little... There's a speed that'll kick it off.
01:49:39.000 It's bouncing like crazy.
01:49:41.000 I can't overspin.
01:49:42.000 BearPost says, Tim, Adam, and Lydia, please give $25 of this to the charity of your choice.
01:49:47.000 Keep on doing what you are doing.
01:49:48.000 I'd love to do that.
01:49:49.000 All right.
01:49:49.000 OK.
01:49:50.000 Your favorite, oh, we just jumped.
01:49:51.000 What happened?
01:49:53.000 We had a post, and then YouTube decided to take it away.
01:49:57.000 Well, it's gone.
01:49:59.000 I'll take this time to just let everyone know, tomorrow I'm going to be doing AdamCast IRL and I'm going to do a deep dive on Donald Trump.
01:50:06.000 So we're going to talk about, me and Ian are going to talk about it, how he became as powerful as he is in the business world, his family history, the things he's done for this country.
01:50:16.000 I'm going to just do a deep dive.
01:50:18.000 When he decided to become a white supremacist.
01:50:21.000 Officially pledged.
01:50:22.000 Anyway, so 8 p.m.
01:50:23.000 tomorrow.
01:50:24.000 Tune in.
01:50:25.000 It's gonna be a good episode.
01:50:26.000 All right, here we go.
01:50:27.000 Your favorite sociologist says, former decade-long Marxist socialist professor, 20-year activist, now voting Trump.
01:50:33.000 Whoa!
01:50:33.000 Whoa!
01:50:34.000 I know.
01:50:35.000 Clearly, via social forum, Comic-Con meets.
01:50:38.000 BLM is not about change but destabilization.
01:50:40.000 I worry media will ignorantly promote support.
01:50:44.000 They will, they absolutely will, because it's just cash.
01:50:47.000 One of the pitfalls of capitalism is woke capitalism.
01:50:51.000 It's true.
01:50:52.000 Baca says, my Friday night after this hard week's work is to sit on my couch in the home I own, drink whiskey, and play Civ 6.
01:51:00.000 Without the work, the slacking wouldn't feel so good.
01:51:03.000 I hear you, man.
01:51:04.000 All right, let's see, let's see.
01:51:06.000 Leland, thanks for the super chat.
01:51:07.000 Winter Walker says, submitted a fraud claim with the Oregon, I believe it's Oregon, Secretary of State against Portland Mayor, Council, DA, and Gov for gross waste of public money.
01:51:17.000 Com Hardesty said $7 million spent on the police over time.
01:51:22.000 They can save us money by stopping the riots, but refuse to do it.
01:51:24.000 Definitely, man.
01:51:26.000 Let's see, Drew38 gave us a super chat.
01:51:28.000 Oh, it's message redacted.
01:51:30.000 Oh wow, it's gone.
01:51:31.000 I think we read that one anyway though.
01:51:32.000 Bobcat says, you were talking about how we need reliable clean energy and cheap access to space earlier.
01:51:38.000 I have a proposal to solve both problems that I would like to send you.
01:51:41.000 Could you do a story on it once I get it sent?
01:51:44.000 It is possible, but you should send it to spintheufo at gmail.com.
01:51:48.000 Yep.
01:51:49.000 And then we'll check it out.
01:51:49.000 There it is.
01:51:50.000 And if you haven't already, make sure you subscribe to this channel right now.
01:51:52.000 We do the show Monday through Friday live at 8 p.m.

01:51:58.000 You can also follow at Adam Krigler on the same platforms.
01:52:02.000 And Parler.
01:52:02.000 Yep.
01:52:03.000 I did say Parler.
01:52:04.000 Oh you did?
01:52:04.000 Okay.
01:52:04.000 I did.
01:52:05.000 Sorry.

01:52:08.000 Also on Parler.
01:52:09.000 I was thinking about Parler.
01:52:10.000 I was like, we cannot forget to mention it.
01:52:11.000 Yep.
01:52:13.000 Armchair Engineering says Tim Pool should say, I'll get you next time, gadget, next time, in that low voice.
01:52:19.000 I'll get you next time, gadget, next time.
01:52:23.000 Nice.
01:52:23.000 That's pretty good.
01:52:25.000 Edward Hughes says, hard work, rugged individualism, drive to be number one.
01:52:29.000 I think intersectionalists just declared Michael Jordan the whitest basketball player of all time.
01:52:33.000 Oh, yeah.
01:52:35.000 Wow.
01:52:35.000 Perhaps they did.
01:52:37.000 Don't mess with Michael, man.
01:52:38.000 Galandro Glade says, really appreciate you guys.
01:52:40.000 You have a global influence.
01:52:41.000 Keep up the great work.
01:52:42.000 Appreciate it.
01:52:43.000 Thank you.
01:52:43.000 I mean, we're hearing crazy stories.
01:52:44.000 Like, you were telling me a crazy story about someone at work, like, secretly watching the podcast.
01:52:48.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:52:49.000 So, I'll tell it.
01:52:50.000 So, someone had to go ask their co-worker a question about something.
01:52:55.000 And I guess they walked up to their co-worker and they quickly hid the phone away.
01:53:00.000 They saw that they were watching videos, but they heard our voice, me and Tim's voice, and they were like, I was like, hey, are you watching Timcast IRL?
01:53:09.000 And they were like, oh, yeah.
01:53:10.000 And they were like, you're not doing anything wrong.
01:53:12.000 Fist bump, and walked back.
01:53:14.000 I was like, yes!
01:53:14.000 That's so awesome!
01:53:16.000 You know what I was looking at?
01:53:18.000 Seeing the amount of growth that we're getting with the show from everybody liking, subscribing, and sharing, I really do appreciate it.
01:53:25.000 We've seen tremendous growth.
01:53:26.000 I think it's been now, we're going on, man, it's only been five and a half months, 420,000 subscribers.
01:53:33.000 Yeah, thanks everybody.
01:53:34.000 But what it gives me hope for is that it's not the biggest channel in the world.
01:53:38.000 We don't got five million, you know?
01:53:39.000 Yet.
01:53:40.000 But the growth suggests that there are moderate individuals, both slightly to the left, slightly to the right, that feel similarly to how we feel and are talking about it, are secretly watching, are concerned.
01:53:55.000 And these stories I hear make me feel like not only do people really like you know, not only do people really like what we're saying,
01:54:01.000 they agree with us in many respects, disagree obviously, but that some of these stories, there
01:54:06.000 are a lot of people scared to admit it.
01:54:08.000 They're watching as milquetoast a conversation as we're having. It's not really milquetoast,
01:54:13.000 I mean it's more of a joke. I don't sit on the fence. But listen, we're not a show where two
01:54:18.000 guys wearing MAGA hats are screaming Trump.
01:54:20.000 We're a show where you're like, I'm gonna vote for Trump because I did my research and I'm saying, you know, we'll see, let's talk about it.
01:54:25.000 And that is not, like a lot of these conservative shows are overtly conservative Republican.
01:54:30.000 I think there's a lot of people who are in a similar position to where we are, where it's like either they're begrudgingly voting for Trump, have just decided to, or recently converted as like mainstream liberals now realizing that Biden has no strength He's gutless.
01:54:45.000 He's giving in to the far left's demands, which are insane and nobody wants.
01:54:48.000 He is trying to defund the police.
01:54:50.000 He is?
01:54:50.000 He is.
01:54:51.000 Or at least he's so weak, he just says, I'll do whatever you say!
01:54:55.000 Joe Biden doesn't want to defund the police.
01:54:57.000 Fact check true.
01:54:58.000 Joe Biden doesn't, but he's so spineless, he'll say he does.
01:55:01.000 How about that one?
01:55:03.000 That could be true.
01:55:04.000 That's what I'm saying.
01:55:05.000 Listening to his speech, he just wanted to be Trump.
01:55:08.000 He wanted to say everything that Trump was saying, but then he wasn't.
01:55:11.000 He was like converting it to his own weird leftist version of it.
01:55:15.000 It's like, dude, what are you talking about?
01:55:18.000 At a certain point, you got to recognize the far left wants more than you can offer.
01:55:22.000 Absolutely.
01:55:23.000 They're not satisfied with what Biden's offering, but they think they can steamroll him.
01:55:27.000 Yeah.
01:55:28.000 So, you know, I'm hopeful.
01:55:29.000 No, no.
01:55:30.000 Not think.
01:55:31.000 They know.
01:55:31.000 They know.
01:55:32.000 They straight up said it.
01:55:34.000 We can't, we can't manipulate the president who's in the office right now.
01:55:38.000 We need Biden in there because he will be, he can be manipulated to the masses.
01:55:43.000 Yep.
01:55:44.000 We can, we can mass riot and he'll make changes for us.
01:55:47.000 He's going to be sitting in a wheelchair with a, with a, with a blanket over his lap, sitting in the sun.
01:55:50.000 And they're going to walk up and go, Now we're gonna abolish the police.
01:55:56.000 Oh yeah, just sign here.
01:55:57.000 Oh, okay.
01:55:57.000 He's going to sign it.
01:55:58.000 Yep.
01:55:59.000 Doop, doop, doop, doop, doop.
01:56:00.000 And that's it.
01:56:02.000 All cops gone.
01:56:03.000 I'm exaggerating.
01:56:04.000 I know someone's going to be like, Tim Pool just said Joe Biden's going to abolish all of the police.
01:56:08.000 That's a joke.
01:56:10.000 Well, they clearly don't watch the entire episode.
01:56:13.000 They're just looking for that gotcha line.
01:56:16.000 That's true.
01:56:17.000 Ugh, media.
01:56:17.000 That's what they do.
01:56:18.000 So sick of that media.
01:56:19.000 Will says, please play Motorhead if you could.
01:56:22.000 We can't do covers, unfortunately.
01:56:25.000 We can cover each other's music, but that's about it.
01:56:27.000 Yep.
01:56:28.000 Kaleem Mims says, I know I've said this before about creating my own animation company, even though to be as big
01:56:34.000 as Disney, which is a big goal, I have more respect for the people who do the gross jobs I wouldn't do.
01:56:41.000 That's South Park Bowels Movement joke though, lol.
01:56:45.000 Yep.
01:56:47.000 Kenny Jackson says, start watching Warrior Poet Society, Tactical Rifleman, and T-Rex Arms to get some good tips on
01:56:52.000 becoming more proficient with firearms.
01:56:55.000 Love the show, Stufo.
01:56:57.000 Stufo!
01:56:58.000 Not Spoofo.
01:57:00.000 I like it though, spin the UFO.
01:57:01.000 Yeah.
01:57:02.000 Hashtag Stufo, let's do it.
01:57:04.000 Robert Jorgensen says, Tim hates being wrong but is willing to be wrong.
01:57:07.000 Oh for sure.
01:57:08.000 There's something amazing about the ability to admit that you're wrong.
01:57:14.000 People forgot that too.
01:57:15.000 They're so stuck in their pride that they can't fathom it, let alone admit it.
01:57:22.000 Ego problems.
01:57:24.000 You know what I think it is?
01:57:25.000 I think it's because they don't actually feel confident in themselves.
01:57:28.000 Yep, that's true.
01:57:29.000 And so the only thing they have is this fake image of who they are.
01:57:32.000 Because for me, and again, I think it's skateboarding.
01:57:36.000 Yep, that's true.
01:57:37.000 We talk about it a lot.
01:57:37.000 When we skate, Adam was trying to do this run where he's like trying to do a bunch of tricks in succession, right?
01:57:43.000 And it gets increasingly difficult because you have to land all, like you were doing, what, four tricks?
01:57:48.000 Wait, you got one, two, three, four.
01:57:49.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:57:50.000 You have to do them all.
01:57:50.000 You have to do them all.
01:57:51.000 If you mess up one, the whole line breaks.
01:57:53.000 You can't lie.
01:57:54.000 Right.
01:57:54.000 You know you did it, and you're confident in yourself saying, I did it.
01:57:58.000 It's a fact.
01:57:59.000 It is an objective fact, and everyone saw me do it.
01:58:01.000 Took me three days.
01:58:02.000 But if you have no real skill or provable, discernible, objective accomplishments, then the only thing you have to believe is this fake sense of self.
01:58:14.000 There's no fake sense of self.
01:58:15.000 You did it.
01:58:16.000 I did.
01:58:16.000 You landed the trick you wanted to do.
01:58:18.000 Or the series of tricks.
01:58:19.000 It felt amazing.
01:58:20.000 I was elated.
01:58:22.000 It was incredible.
01:58:23.000 Now, I feel like this is it.
01:58:24.000 Psychologically, in your mind, if you are wrong, you're like, oh, because you already know that I can do what I set my mind to.
01:58:31.000 I'm confident, comfortable in what my abilities are.
01:58:34.000 Oh, I was wrong about that.
01:58:35.000 Hey, how about that?
01:58:36.000 It doesn't affect your view of yourself.
01:58:38.000 You know you struggled to get this line done, and then you accomplished your goal.
01:58:41.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:58:42.000 Skateboarding is proof.
01:58:44.000 And I think that lends itself to this worldview, I guess, that many of these lefties have no accomplishments.
01:58:50.000 They can't prove their value.
01:58:51.000 They're not the best at anything.
01:58:53.000 So that's why they get so angry when they're proven wrong, because the only thing they have is their imaginary self.
01:59:00.000 I've got it.
01:59:01.000 Deep thoughts.
01:59:02.000 Deep thoughts with Tim Pool.
01:59:03.000 Yeah, man.
01:59:03.000 Like, well, when I go skate and I'm like, today I'm going to do this trick.
01:59:07.000 If I don't get it, I know I'll try again later.
01:59:09.000 And then, you know, I'm trying to do right now, nollie flip rock on the mini ramp.
01:59:13.000 And I'm getting close.
01:59:14.000 I know I can't land it.
01:59:16.000 I can't lie about that.
01:59:16.000 I can't go, hey Adam, I did it.
01:59:18.000 You're going to be like, no, you didn't.
01:59:19.000 No, I would say, all right, let me see it.
01:59:20.000 Yeah, go do it.
01:59:21.000 Prove it.
01:59:22.000 That's what I say.
01:59:22.000 Exactly.
01:59:23.000 Prove it.
01:59:23.000 Prove it to me that you did it.
01:59:25.000 So think about how this translates then, you know, in skateboarding, you film it to prove it.
01:59:30.000 Yeah, that's true.
01:59:30.000 And if you didn't, that's what a poser, you're posing.
01:59:33.000 You would put the board down and you would pose for it to lie.
01:59:35.000 And people would, no, he's not really doing it.
01:59:37.000 On the internet, you claim, I know I'm right about this.
01:59:40.000 And the same response.
01:59:41.000 Prove it.
01:59:42.000 No!
01:59:43.000 Could you imagine?
01:59:44.000 I don't need to prove it because I'm right.
01:59:46.000 Imagine any sport where someone walks up, basketball, football, hockey, skateboarding, BMX, whatever, and they're like, I'm the best.
01:59:54.000 I can do this special move.
01:59:56.000 You'd be like, cool, let's see it.
01:59:58.000 No.
02:00:00.000 Why did you tell me you could do it?
02:00:02.000 Don't you wanna show off?
02:00:03.000 Yeah, like, just don't say it, just do it.
02:00:05.000 It's like the old saying, those who know don't say and those who say don't know.
02:00:10.000 Yeah, we have to actually incorporate the way sports does things into real life.
02:00:16.000 They pick the best of the best to be on their team.
02:00:20.000 They're not gonna start picking, you know... An NBA team, a bunch of players, and they're like, they're all chosen because they said they were better.
02:00:29.000 Because of equality.
02:00:30.000 So we want to know, before we sign you this team, are you the best?
02:00:33.000 I am in fact the best.
02:00:34.000 Then everyone else, yep, can you show us?
02:00:36.000 No.
02:00:37.000 Good enough for us, welcome to the team!
02:00:38.000 You've said you're the best, we believe it.
02:00:40.000 They all come out, it's a match, it's like the Bulls versus this other team.
02:00:45.000 And the Bulls are playing.
02:00:46.000 The SJWs.
02:00:47.000 And the SJWs are on their arms crossed and they're like, we don't have to prove we can actually play.
02:00:53.000 Like you demanding that of us, how dare you?
02:00:55.000 That's bigoted.
02:00:56.000 Whoa, whoa.
02:00:57.000 We don't actually play the game.
02:00:59.000 No, no, wait, wait.
02:00:59.000 We just win.
02:01:00.000 It gets better.
02:01:01.000 And then one of the players, like, after a few minutes of them all confused, one of the players walks over to one of, like, the refs and whispers to them, and the ref shrugs, and then all of a sudden their score goes to 100.
02:01:11.000 And they're like, they said they had 100 points.
02:01:14.000 We asked for proof that they've scored, and they said they didn't need to prove it, so we're just changing the scoreboard.
02:01:18.000 That feels like it's literally happening.
02:01:20.000 It's true.
02:01:20.000 We don't need to prove it.
02:01:21.000 We're saying it's true, therefore it is.
02:01:24.000 And we're asking, like, can you prove it?
02:01:25.000 Words have power.
02:01:26.000 Nope.
02:01:27.000 We're here to watch the game be played?
02:01:30.000 No, no, no.
02:01:31.000 The game is whiteness.
02:01:33.000 No, no, no.
02:01:35.000 Everybody walks in.
02:01:36.000 The teams run out.
02:01:37.000 Then they say, OK, everybody now leave.
02:01:38.000 Everybody leaves.
02:01:39.000 And they come back and the scores are changed.
02:01:41.000 And they're like, we don't have to prove to you who actually scored.
02:01:44.000 This is it.
02:01:45.000 You're done.
02:01:47.000 Anyway, welcome to the show.
02:01:48.000 We've got to bring back All Ball.
02:01:49.000 Hope you're enjoying it.
02:01:50.000 All Ball.
02:01:50.000 Hashtag All Ball.
02:01:51.000 We'll figure it out.
02:01:52.000 The idea of All Ball was a sport where it's like, I guess the idea we had was like Hunger Games, where there's every ball, a football, a baseball, a softball, a basketball, a dodgeball, and there's nets for them.
02:02:04.000 And then everyone runs in and tries to grab them or something.
02:02:07.000 Yeah, yeah.
02:02:07.000 And then the dodgeballs would be like, you can get people out.
02:02:11.000 Yeah, it's like dodgeball.
02:02:11.000 You know what?
02:02:12.000 I'm going to start a thread.
02:02:14.000 You're going to start writing it down?
02:02:15.000 No, no, even better.
02:02:16.000 I'm going to start a thread on Twitter, and I'll throw one up on Parler, too, because I know a lot of people aren't on either or.
02:02:23.000 And I'll just be like, what should the game be?
02:02:26.000 What should the rules be?
02:02:28.000 Yes.
02:02:28.000 But on the premise of it needs to have all the balls in the center of the court.
02:02:34.000 We'll just say the court, the center.
02:02:36.000 And then on the outside, it's like a circle.
02:02:38.000 You know, we got a kind of a premise going already.
02:02:40.000 Well, that means you need bases.
02:02:42.000 Maybe.
02:02:42.000 And you need... No, who knows?
02:02:44.000 Well, you need a bat.
02:02:44.000 I don't know.
02:02:45.000 There's a baseball, so... Let's discuss.
02:02:47.000 We'll do it.
02:02:47.000 I'll put it out.
02:02:48.000 I'll put it up there.
02:02:49.000 We'll discuss it.
02:02:50.000 So, there's gonna be a dodgeball.
02:02:51.000 And that means if someone runs to grab the football to throw it, then you hit them with a dodgeball, they're out.
02:02:55.000 Yep.
02:02:56.000 But then if he, like, throws the football and then catches the dodgeball, his player comes back in.
02:02:59.000 Oh, snap.
02:03:00.000 And then someone pitches the baseball and someone's got a bat for some reason.
02:03:03.000 I have no idea.
02:03:04.000 No, no, no.
02:03:04.000 Because, see, now we're getting into someone could get seriously injured with a baseball.
02:03:08.000 You can get injured playing any sport.
02:03:10.000 Come on.
02:03:10.000 I know, but... The batter's in the batter box, man.
02:03:13.000 He's not running around swinging a bat.
02:03:15.000 So someone could throw the football and he can try and hit the football through the field goal.
02:03:18.000 With a bat?
02:03:18.000 Yeah, with a bat.
02:03:19.000 Oh my goodness.
02:03:21.000 Someone throws a dodgeball and he hits it and it bounces back.
02:03:24.000 Clearly we need to deliberate about the rules of All Ball.
02:03:27.000 Some creative differences.
02:03:29.000 All Ball.
02:03:30.000 Ladies and gentlemen, with that being said, Adam is cracking the whiskey.
02:03:34.000 That means, it means smash that like button.
02:03:37.000 Oh my.

02:03:42.000 And hit that like, uh, the notification bell.
02:03:45.000 Sorry, the notification bell.
02:03:46.000 Ron Swanson knew what he was doing.
02:03:48.000 Is it good stuff?
02:03:48.000 Well, it smells good.
02:03:49.000 I haven't tried it yet, but, you know, he's one of the greatest TV characters ever.
02:03:55.000 You guys know Ron Swanson.
02:03:56.000 Yeah, but he's like actually- Lydia's over there like, yeah.
02:03:58.000 He's got like raging TDS.
02:03:59.000 Yeah, in real life, he's kind of terrible.
02:04:01.000 Yeah, that's the actor.
02:04:01.000 I'm talking about the character, Ron Swanson.
02:04:03.000 The character is great.
02:04:05.000 You know?
02:04:05.000 My friends.
02:04:07.000 I would say that the show is technically over, but the after party has just started.
02:04:13.000 Oh, that's good.
02:04:14.000 We're gonna hang out a little bit more.
02:04:16.000 Adam's gonna set up the music and we're gonna stick around for about another 26 or so minutes for the Friday night jam session.
02:04:22.000 And that's what we do on Friday.
02:04:24.000 Thanks for hanging out, everybody.
02:04:25.000 As far as it goes with cultural talk, commentary, politics, that part is, for the most part, done.
02:04:30.000 We're now just gonna hang out.
02:04:31.000 It's a Friday night.
02:04:32.000 Which means Adam is probably gonna play a couple songs.
02:04:34.000 I think I might play one song.
02:04:36.000 I don't even know what I would play.
02:04:38.000 But yeah, we're gonna play some music.
02:04:39.000 And the important thing you need to know is that we're both actually the best.
02:04:43.000 There ever was!
02:04:44.000 It's true.
02:04:44.000 Both of them.
02:04:45.000 We're the best!
02:04:47.000 But this time, we're actually gonna prove it to you.
02:04:49.000 No, we're gonna jam.
02:04:51.000 I guess we're okay.
02:04:51.000 A lot of people like the music, so we'll be hanging out.
02:04:54.000 And again, thanks for hanging out.
02:04:56.000 You can still feel free to subscribe, like, super chat, whatever, while Adam sets up that there microphone.
02:05:02.000 No, just the good mic that we normally use.
02:05:08.000 Alright.
02:05:09.000 I'm gonna mute the audio real quick so I can plug this in.
02:05:12.000 And we're back.
02:05:25.000 Because Adam is setting up the mic.
02:05:27.000 Well, that doesn't sound right.
02:05:29.000 It's giving me fuzz.
02:05:30.000 It's giving you fuzz?
02:05:31.000 Yeah.
02:05:33.000 Well, it shouldn't.
02:05:34.000 It is certainly.
02:05:35.000 Oh, we're good.
02:05:40.000 I think it was because it was on this power cable right there.
02:05:43.000 That's better?
02:05:44.000 Yes, sir.
02:05:45.000 Sounds good.
02:05:45.000 And for those that are listening, we are very, very close to a large expansion, where we're gonna be having, like, multiple studios, we're gonna have a much, much better sound setup, we're gonna be building out and expanding.
02:05:58.000 Basically, as we stated earlier, with the fact that, you know, we gained almost half a million subs in, like, five and a half months, things are going well enough for a decent expansion.
02:06:07.000 So, new shows, vlogging, all the good stuff.
02:06:12.000 You gonna play Melancholy Hellhound?
02:06:15.000 Yeah, I'll play it.
02:06:16.000 That was the request.
02:06:17.000 I'm going to play it.
02:06:37.000 I just wanted to play that little ditty.
02:07:03.000 What's up, everyone?
02:07:04.000 I'm going to play... This is the first time we actually had a request from the audience, which is kind of cool.
02:07:09.000 Thank you for that super chat.
02:07:10.000 I appreciate it.
02:07:11.000 So I'm going to play Melancholy Hellhound.
02:07:12.000 This is one of my jams.
02:07:15.000 It's one of the songs I like to jam on.
02:07:18.000 And this Lagavulin... I think I said it wrong.
02:07:21.000 I don't know.
02:07:21.000 It's amazing.
02:07:22.000 I've never had it before, so this is... It's incredible.
02:07:27.000 But it's the 16 year.
02:07:30.000 Highly suggest it.
02:07:31.000 Cheers to everybody.
02:07:34.000 This is Melancholy Hill, huh?
02:07:38.000 Well, I don't want your money.
02:07:43.000 I just want some wine.
02:07:48.000 Yeah, give me some of your honey.
02:07:53.000 I promise I'll take my time.
02:07:57.000 Welcome to the heartache.
02:08:01.000 It always feels the same.
02:08:04.000 It's a good one.
02:08:08.000 Yeah, I find myself growing senseless to the pain.
02:08:14.000 Yeah, well I'll scratch and crawl to figure it out, but in the end I found me.
02:08:30.000 Oh, I don't want your pity.
02:08:32.000 Hey.
02:08:33.000 you And I don't want no lies.
02:08:40.000 Yeah!
02:08:42.000 Life gets shitty.
02:08:46.000 And then you die.
02:08:49.000 Welcome to the heartache.
02:08:53.000 Try not to lose your way.
02:08:59.000 Yeah, it's like trudging through the muddy waters, oh, without faith.
02:09:10.000 Yeah, you can stretch and crawl to figure it out, but in the end you'll find me.
02:09:17.000 Oh, well, I still get the feeling, yeah, of judgmental eyes.
02:09:32.000 The only difference being, it's just not worth my time Cause I welcome all the heartache, oh it brings tears to my
02:09:47.000 eyes Yeah, those tears remind me
02:09:54.000 Cheers.
02:09:54.000 Remind me I'm alive, yeah, alive Yeah, well I'll scratch and crawl to figure it out
02:10:05.000 But in the end it's just me Woo!
02:10:12.000 Thank you everybody, cheers.
02:10:14.000 I'm gonna play a nameless song.
02:10:16.000 You're gonna what?
02:10:17.000 I'm gonna play a name with Sung.
02:10:20.000 Play a nameless song.
02:10:21.000 Oh, he's coming over!
02:10:22.000 Untitled song.
02:10:25.000 I know, that's the problem with your songs.
02:10:26.000 I'm like, hey, what was that song you were playing?
02:10:30.000 I actually have a career that's not music-related.
02:10:33.000 Oh, he's bringing the 12-string over.
02:10:35.000 Yeah, so I'm gonna play a song that's just chords, so I think... Hey, that's cool.
02:10:40.000 Hello, everyone!
02:10:41.000 My name is Tim Poole.
02:10:43.000 This is probably out of tune.
02:10:48.000 Should I play with the 12?
02:10:49.000 I could play with the 6.
02:10:49.000 I'm going to play with the 6, I think, because I'm not brave enough to do it.
02:10:57.000 How you guys doing?
02:10:59.000 It's Friday night.
02:11:00.000 This is what we do when we're bored.
02:11:01.000 We play music.
02:11:06.000 This song has a name.
02:11:10.000 have a name it's called carved out of stone.
02:11:12.000 Oh well there you go.
02:11:14.000 ♪ Well the ice is getting low and the days are getting longer
02:11:31.000 I knew that we would make it on our own and true it's true enough that we'll never see another
02:11:43.000 night quite like this that I had seen with you when you promised
02:11:51.000 to.
02:11:52.000 This is not an idea I made up on my own.
02:11:58.000 Won't you consider it?
02:12:04.000 The paper people unfold.
02:12:07.000 Their hearts are exposed.
02:12:10.000 More than you'd ever know.
02:12:15.000 So long as you know Well the days have gotten short
02:12:33.000 And the nights are getting longer Now our time has come to an end, we know.
02:12:43.000 But true, it's true enough that we worked it out together.
02:12:49.000 And the plans we made have brought us to our own road.
02:12:54.000 You told me that you know.
02:12:57.000 This is not an idea you made up on your own.
02:13:03.000 Won't you consider it?
02:13:09.000 The plastic people in Maltu's hearts are controlled more than you'd ever know.
02:13:19.000 But so long as you know This is not an idea to dismiss on its own
02:13:43.000 Once you consider it to get.
02:13:49.000 To carve yourself out of stone, you must pave your own road into the wilderness.
02:14:01.000 The paths that you have paved and the prices you've paid, guide them in infinite And everyone who follows knows
02:14:16.000 The path that you drove Brings them to their own end
02:14:23.000 For so long As you know
02:14:32.000 You Nice. I'll give it up now to Adam.
02:14:48.000 There you are, sir.
02:14:52.000 Well, I pulled my fly up.
02:14:58.000 It was down.
02:15:00.000 I had no idea.
02:15:00.000 Why didn't anyone tell me?
02:15:02.000 I'm sorry!
02:15:02.000 I didn't know.
02:15:04.000 You didn't know?
02:15:05.000 I'm sorry.
02:15:05.000 Well, it's probably best that you weren't noticing.
02:15:08.000 Am I your fly's keeper?
02:15:10.000 Apparently.
02:15:13.000 Honestly, I don't care.
02:15:14.000 It's not like you can see anything, but whatever.
02:15:18.000 So actually, it's interesting.
02:15:19.000 Someone asked me last week to play a song.
02:15:22.000 I think it was maybe on my show that they requested it.
02:15:26.000 No, maybe not.
02:15:26.000 I don't remember when it was, but it's called Hindsight.
02:15:30.000 And it's funny because it's the year 2020 and it's kind of the hook is involved about hindsight 2020.
02:15:37.000 But it's not about craziness like that.
02:15:40.000 This is about a friend of mine who was in a crazy relationship nonstop on the phone.
02:15:46.000 It was a mess, but this is what that song is about.
02:15:49.000 So this is called Hindsight.
02:15:53.000 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:15:59.000 I'm stuck answering all your phone calls.
02:16:05.000 I'm stuck answering all your phone calls again.
02:16:14.000 Whoa, again.
02:16:18.000 Again.
02:16:18.000 Always again.
02:16:25.000 Feels like I'm locked up in your phone calls nearly every single night.
02:16:31.000 I know we've had this conversation at least a million times.
02:16:37.000 It's not my job to make sure that everything's right.
02:16:43.000 I knew you were trouble.
02:16:45.000 Well, it's always 2020 when it's in your hindsight.
02:16:51.000 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm on the phone again
02:17:00.000 I feel my mind slip away Cause we're still arguing
02:17:06.000 I don't know what else to say So I hung up the phone
02:17:16.000 Same routine every day With you, oh with you
02:17:25.000 With you, always again be
02:17:33.000 Feels like I'm locked up in your phone calls nearly every single night.
02:17:39.000 I know we've had this conversation at least a million times.
02:17:45.000 It's not my job to make sure that everything's alright.
02:17:50.000 Well, I knew you were trouble.
02:17:52.000 Well, it's always 2020 when it's in your hindsight.
02:18:00.000 when it's in your hindsight But I knew you were trouble, well
02:18:12.000 It's always 2020 when it's in your hindsight So that was for whoever requested that last week.
02:18:27.000 Forgot about that request, so that was cool.
02:18:29.000 I got the ultimate request!
02:18:31.000 Tim's got a request!
02:18:32.000 The ultimate one, that's a big mistake.
02:18:34.000 Uh oh, it's the ultimate request.
02:18:36.000 Exciting!
02:18:38.000 I'm good.
02:18:40.000 The ultimate request.
02:18:42.000 The one that's gonna make me not be able to work for the next week.
02:18:44.000 Oh no.
02:18:45.000 Is it Will O' The People?
02:18:46.000 Yeah.
02:18:46.000 Don't do it!
02:18:47.000 I can play anything else.
02:18:48.000 I knew it was Will O' The People.
02:18:50.000 I can try and not blow up my vocal cords trying to sing this song.
02:18:53.000 Technically, I could sing it for you.
02:18:55.000 Oh man.
02:18:55.000 If you play the guitar.
02:18:56.000 I'm gonna go for it.
02:18:57.000 Play it out, play it out, play it out.
02:18:59.000 So this is a song that, uh, it was like what, two or three weeks now.
02:19:03.000 I had, I had done six Full belt recordings in the studio because we're currently working on an animation.
02:19:12.000 This song is not necessarily about all the political goings-on that we're experiencing.
02:19:17.000 I wrote the song last year, but it really is apt to what we're seeing today, inspired by the last several years.
02:19:22.000 The song is basically about the cycle of revolutions when every single person thinks that their fringe minority represents what people actually want, and it's not true.
02:19:31.000 And the song is called The Will of the People.
02:19:34.000 So I did like six full belt versions of it in like a half an hour or longer and then like that Friday... Studio version's coming soon though.
02:19:43.000 Yeah, so I'll see if I can play it Out on the March in the morning
02:20:13.000 He called his soldiers down to take aim at the
02:20:18.000 traitors To gun those rebels down
02:20:24.000 Now they'll face the consequences They held themselves above
02:20:31.000 This is the will of the people Love the people you save.
02:20:40.000 I wish I could spare them, make them see the path.
02:20:45.000 Tempting as that sounds, a laugh to pass.
02:20:49.000 I know what's needed for the good of the people, to save them.
02:21:03.000 Out, in the dark, without warning.
02:21:09.000 He raised his fist above, let it pry to his people.
02:21:17.000 To tear those statues down, now they'll face the consequences.
02:21:25.000 They held themselves above This is the will of the people
02:21:33.000 He said I wish I could spare them
02:21:38.000 Make them see the path Tempting as that sounds, I'll have to pass.
02:21:45.000 I know what's needed for the good of my people.
02:21:50.000 To save them Now drop your arms and march for them
02:22:04.000 Against a wall and bow your head you
02:22:15.000 you Speak your last words, let them be said.
02:22:20.000 Out on the march in the morning He called his comrades down To take aim at the traitors To gun those fascists down
02:22:58.000 Now they'll face the consequences They held themselves above
02:23:07.000 This is the will of the people He said, I wish I could find a way to restore peace.
02:23:18.000 Blessed were those days we held in vain.
02:23:22.000 I'd give it all for a chance at redemption.
02:23:28.000 But the cycle turns again You've seen it before, now you'll see it begin
02:23:43.000 You've seen the changes and the blood pooling.
02:23:45.000 You've seen the changes and the blood pooling If you think it ends here, think again
02:24:14.000 Yeah! Almost perfect.
02:24:25.000 I messed up one part.
02:24:28.000 Save your voice, Tim!
02:24:29.000 No!
02:24:30.000 Yeah, that should be the last one.
02:24:34.000 That's such a good song, though.
02:24:35.000 I get overconfident.
02:24:36.000 Did you turn the mics off over there?
02:24:38.000 Because I was singing along.
02:24:38.000 No, they're on.
02:24:40.000 I might have infiltrated that song a little bit.
02:24:42.000 They're definitely on.
02:24:44.000 I was singing along.
02:24:44.000 You were singing.
02:24:45.000 I regret nothing.
02:24:45.000 He's jamming.
02:24:47.000 It's cool.
02:24:49.000 There was a couple people in there that were asking me to play specific songs.
02:24:53.000 I played Find Yourself last week on this show, so I'm going to play that tomorrow night.
02:24:59.000 Adam cast IRL, 8pm, same as Tim cast IRL.
02:25:04.000 Tune in tomorrow, we're going to do a deep dive on Donald Trump, and then me and Ian jam after the show, it's going to be great.
02:25:10.000 So I'll play that then.
02:25:11.000 And then I saw another person ask for Torn Photographs, which I actually was thinking about playing anyway, so I'm going to play it.
02:25:19.000 So this is Torn Photographs.
02:25:23.000 I'm just gonna check the tuning because I can't help myself.
02:25:27.000 Okay, it sounds fine.
02:25:36.000 This is Torn Photographs.
02:25:38.000 I come home late.
02:25:58.000 I get the feeling you're still here.
02:26:06.000 But you're not.
02:26:09.000 Don't you remember?
02:26:14.000 All of those things I did.
02:26:20.000 I did to prove to you.
02:26:24.000 All I wanted was a little something in return.
02:26:39.000 You'd think you'd be better off without me.
02:26:46.000 Baby, all I wanted was for you to be happy.
02:26:52.000 I guess I'm all out of luck, cause you were my everything.
02:26:58.000 Oh, and now I'm all torn up because now you're gone.
02:27:08.000 Oh, and obviously I'm alone.
02:27:15.000 Oh, with my thoughts and old torn photographs.
02:27:22.000 Of distant smiles on the floor As you walked out the door
02:27:32.000 I closed my eyes and I thought I'd never see you again.
02:28:01.000 I closed my eyes only to find that you're still here.
02:28:14.000 A flash of light and one more memory slides to the floor.
02:28:27.000 Maybe I am better better.
02:28:32.000 Going on without you, boy, that's gonna be so hard.
02:28:42.000 Cause you'd think you'd be better off without me.
02:28:46.000 Oh, and baby, all I wanted was for you to be happy.
02:28:55.000 I guess I'm all out of luck, cause you were my everything And now I'm all torn up because, now you're gone
02:29:10.000 Oh, and obviously I'm alone.
02:29:15.000 Oh, with my thoughts in old torn photographs of distant smiles on the floor.
02:29:30.000 As you walked out the door All the pain That you caused me when you walked out It didn't stop me from putting All those pieces back together To see your face just one last time again. Oh, again.
02:30:07.000 Woo! So that one's kind of heavy.
02:30:34.000 Woo!
02:30:35.000 That one's kinda heavy.
02:30:37.000 heavy.
02:30:38.000 So I actually wrote that for a good friend of mine back in Chicago who is just going through it, you know.
02:30:46.000 He's coming over again.
02:30:47.000 You're not gonna lose your voice, are you?
02:30:49.000 I hope not.
02:30:50.000 I see the smile on his face.
02:30:52.000 I'm like, I think I can play one song.
02:31:17.000 I've traveled a thousand miles in the dark just to be with you.
02:31:27.000 And I've made it a thousand nights to your heart just to see it through.
02:31:35.000 Maybe this is the only way I can justify my stay.
02:31:44.000 Maybe I could trade you something for the words to say When you say never, if we stayed together until we die
02:31:59.000 We would only fight, I'm saying just never forget what it was
02:32:07.000 Only just because we let it die I've seen into the sky the broken shards reflected in your
02:32:30.000 eyes and I'll see you next time.
02:32:32.000 And I've traveled through the night to see the art of your lies.
02:32:41.000 Maybe this is the only way I can justify my stay.
02:32:50.000 Maybe I could trade you something for the words to say when you say never.
02:33:00.000 If we stay together until we die, it'll be alright.
02:33:06.000 I'm saying let's never forget what it was Only just because we let it die
02:33:16.000 Maybe this is the only way I could justify my sin
02:33:35.000 you Maybe I could trade you something for the words to say when you say never if we stay together through the night.
02:33:51.000 It'll be alright.
02:33:53.000 Just promise me you'll never forget what it was.
02:33:59.000 Only just because we let it die.
02:34:03.000 Yeah!
02:34:03.000 That's the end for me.
02:34:04.000 Alright.
02:34:04.000 I don't have to scream that one, that's why I thought I'd be able to play it.
02:34:08.000 Alright, so my- I have a second verse though.
02:34:10.000 Yeah! That's the end for me. I don't have to scream that one, that's why I thought I'd
02:34:17.000 be able to play it. Alright, so my second verse though... I'm gonna play one more. I'm
02:34:22.000 gonna play one more and then we're gonna be done.
02:34:24.000 This one is a request from my mom, who's watching right now.
02:34:28.000 Hey mom, how you doing?
02:34:30.000 Love you.
02:34:33.000 This one's called, this one actually, it's got two versions of it, and I might as well, I'll play a little bit of the first version.
02:34:44.000 I've been sitting here a long time, well, move over, yeah.
02:34:51.000 So this was a little tiny ditty that I had, and it was just talking about sitting in one spot for a long time, and someone coming by and telling you to move over, and it's just like, who are you to tell me?
02:35:01.000 I've been sitting here a long time.
02:35:03.000 But I wrote a full song about it, and it's totally different, so I'm going to play the full song, because that's what it is now.
02:35:10.000 It's called A Love Story's Remains.
02:35:15.000 That's what it's called, a love story's remains.
02:35:31.000 you The things I do to get you dancing in the rain.
02:35:36.000 I want a piece, oh say you want the same.
02:35:41.000 A love story remains.
02:35:45.000 I know we'll go through some hard times.
02:35:50.000 And I'll always be there if I can.
02:35:54.000 Oh, but there's a chance we're not like miles.
02:35:58.000 Oh, this love story may end.
02:36:02.000 I'm just being honest.
02:36:04.000 I'm just being honest with myself I'm gonna miss the way you kiss under the rain
02:36:20.000 All the times you saved me, but that love don't feel the same.
02:36:25.000 I wanted peace, so you wanted me to change.
02:36:29.000 Only connected when you're calling out my name.
02:36:34.000 I know we've been through some hard times.
02:36:38.000 Oh, those times have helped me to find myself.
02:36:42.000 Oh, honesty is my policy, yeah.
02:36:47.000 We might be better with someone else.
02:36:51.000 I'm just being honest.
02:36:53.000 I'm just being honest with myself.
02:37:05.000 Well, come and sit.
02:37:06.000 Let's take a trip down memory lane.
02:37:09.000 If I had the choose, baby, I wouldn't miss a thing.
02:37:13.000 Cause I found peace, oh look you found the same In the rubble of the remains Of love stories remains I found a peace of mind Something you helped me find I wouldn't trade it for anything.
02:37:40.000 Just be honest.
02:37:42.000 Just be honest with yourself.
02:37:50.000 Thank you very much everybody.
02:37:51.000 I'm gonna head back over there.
02:37:57.000 And thus is the end of the music.
02:38:00.000 Ladies and gentlemen, thanks for hanging out.
02:38:03.000 We played some songs.
02:38:04.000 Yeah, that was fun.
02:38:05.000 I was able to squeeze in three, and I think my voice is alright.
02:38:07.000 I'm drinking this nice hibiscus soda.
02:38:09.000 You need to be on that whiskey kick.
02:38:12.000 No alcohol.
02:38:12.000 No, I know you don't drink.
02:38:13.000 It's bad.
02:38:15.000 It's bad for your throat, man.
02:38:16.000 Hey, thanks for hanging out.
02:38:17.000 I'm assuming the people who've made it this far have already smashed the like button.
02:38:20.000 He doesn't know what he's talking about.
02:38:22.000 Dehydrated.
02:38:22.000 You better smash that like button.
02:38:24.000 Actually.
02:38:24.000 I drink lots of water.
02:38:25.000 Actually, Adam, alcohol inhibits protein.
02:38:27.000 Actually.
02:38:28.000 Alcohol inhibits protein synthesis.
02:38:30.000 No, it's too late for this.
02:38:35.000 Look fat.
02:38:35.000 Look fat.
02:38:36.000 How dare you?
02:38:38.000 Oh my gosh.
02:38:39.000 Is that on?
02:38:39.000 Oh, it is on, yeah.
02:38:40.000 It is, yeah.
02:38:41.000 We're gonna get a full soundboard.
02:38:42.000 I can't wait.
02:38:43.000 We are really close.
02:38:45.000 We've got so much stuff happening in the background.
02:38:47.000 The stack of projects we've got.
02:38:50.000 It's too many.
02:38:51.000 Too many projects.
02:38:53.000 Too good of projects.
02:38:54.000 Too good of expansion.
02:38:56.000 I don't know if your English was correct there.
02:38:58.000 Too good.
02:39:00.000 Too good of expansion.
02:39:01.000 Too good things are happening.
02:39:02.000 I've got good vocabulistics and all.
02:39:08.000 Two good things.
02:39:09.000 We are going to be moving to a much bigger production set up.
02:39:13.000 I've been talking about for a while wanting to get a bigger building where we can do a lot more.
02:39:16.000 Considering the shenanigans of everything, it's going to be like a fortress in the middle of nowhere.
02:39:21.000 And we're going to have probably different shows, different sets.
02:39:26.000 We originally did have a space set up for the gaming set up.
02:39:28.000 We've never got to that point.
02:39:30.000 But we're going to have skateboarding, we're going to have a general vlog.
02:39:33.000 So you're going to have a pinball machine.
02:39:35.000 Yeah.
02:39:36.000 Maybe a bowling alley.
02:39:37.000 That's wishful thinking.
02:39:38.000 That'd be so cool.
02:39:40.000 Pinball machine is something you can't do.
02:39:41.000 You can't drop that.
02:39:43.000 I was the most excited there.
02:39:45.000 You know, I brought my bowling ball here from Arizona when I moved here because we went bowling a few times and I was like getting hyped.
02:39:51.000 I'm like, I'm about to join.
02:39:53.000 You OK?
02:39:53.000 Yeah.
02:39:54.000 You good?
02:39:55.000 Oh boy.
02:39:55.000 Yeah.
02:39:55.000 It's because you're not drinking the good stuff.
02:39:57.000 That's why.
02:39:58.000 Anyway, back to bowling.
02:40:00.000 I'm disappointed.
02:40:00.000 So when you drop this, like, we're going to have a bowling alley.
02:40:03.000 I'm like, yes.
02:40:04.000 That sounds awesome!
02:40:05.000 You're a one-dog-faced pony soldier.
02:40:08.000 You are!
02:40:09.000 Anyway, there's been a g-off in the chat.
02:40:12.000 It's like, please do a studio version of these songs.
02:40:16.000 We are absolutely going to work on that.
02:40:18.000 We have a music producer that lives in-house who's working on his stuff right now.
02:40:23.000 Wheel of the People is being finalized, so that's going to be first.
02:40:27.000 And eventually all of our songs are going to be done professionally.
02:40:29.000 We're going to put those out there for you guys to listen to, download, whatever.
02:40:33.000 And we'll probably both have albums soon because he's got so many songs and I've got a bunch of songs.
02:40:40.000 I've got like 30 ready to go that I could probably play right now.
02:40:42.000 No, no, don't do that.
02:40:43.000 No, I know.
02:40:44.000 You need your voice.
02:40:44.000 I should put a set list together, though.
02:40:46.000 This guy works every day like a freaking robot.
02:40:49.000 I mean, I'm sure most of you know.
02:40:51.000 On Saturday, I work in the mornings, but we don't do IRL, right?
02:40:57.000 I've got a huge business call.
02:41:00.000 It's going to take like an hour.
02:41:01.000 Well, I do IRL.
02:41:02.000 And then you're going to do the Atomcast show.
02:41:04.000 Sunday, I've got a call with a production company for the animation work for Will of the People.
02:41:10.000 Oh, dope.
02:41:11.000 16 hour days, every day, no days off.
02:41:13.000 This guy's crazy.
02:41:13.000 The secret to success!
02:41:16.000 Have some kind of weird workaholism.
02:41:20.000 I don't know.
02:41:20.000 Whatever.
02:41:21.000 I guess if your dream is to get your name in big gold letters on top of a building, you will succeed.
02:41:25.000 That's a pie in the sky.
02:41:26.000 I'm gonna read some of these hefty superchats.
02:41:28.000 Michael Martin just said, this music is fire.
02:41:31.000 And you all have my deepest respect as journalists.
02:41:34.000 Thank you for reporting on the facts and truth instead of political rhetoric.
02:41:38.000 Free Hong Kong.
02:41:39.000 And I know this is a meme, but play Free Bird.
02:41:42.000 Ha ha ha.
02:41:44.000 Chief.
02:41:44.000 An election.
02:41:45.000 Oh my gosh.
02:41:46.000 We will immortalize the fart of Eric Swalwell.
02:41:48.000 Yes, we will.
02:41:49.000 PPMM says, uh, uh, Moebank, blocking me to donate more, uh, let's sing for freedom.
02:41:56.000 Oh, so you wanted to donate more.
02:41:58.000 Well, that was a pretty hefty super chat.
02:42:00.000 I must thank you for that.
02:42:00.000 Thank you.
02:42:01.000 Anyway, uh, Zibi sent a, a, an awesome chunk for us for, with a, a little dancing monster pear, which is great.
02:42:09.000 Thank you.
02:42:09.000 Thank you for that.
02:42:10.000 A little dancing monster pear.
02:42:11.000 Yeah, I think, uh, I think that's great.
02:42:13.000 Thank you very much, everybody.
02:42:14.000 Appreciate it.
02:42:15.000 You guys are awesome.
02:42:16.000 All right, man.
02:42:16.000 Well, if you haven't already, I'm assuming you already did, subscribe, like, notification bell, all that good stuff.
02:42:21.000 We will be back.
02:42:22.000 Well, Adam will be back tomorrow.
02:42:25.000 Same time, 8 p.m.
02:42:26.000 We're doing a deep dive on Donald Trump tomorrow night.
02:42:28.000 If you just search on YouTube for AdamCastIRL, he's got a Saturday show.
02:42:32.000 Yep, 8 p.m.
02:42:33.000 Basically the same thing, but I won't be here.
02:42:35.000 Instead, it will be Adam.
02:42:36.000 I'm sitting in your spot.
02:42:37.000 Yeah, he's taking over.
02:42:38.000 Cosmic Garth?
02:42:39.000 Cosmic Garth.
02:42:41.000 Ian Crossland sits in my seat.
02:42:43.000 He joins me.
02:42:45.000 Also a great musician.
02:42:47.000 So if you didn't tune in last week, tune in tomorrow night and you'll hear me.
02:42:51.000 I'll play a few more songs.
02:42:53.000 I'll play Find Yourself.
02:42:53.000 Someone requested it.
02:42:55.000 Today I'll play it tomorrow after we do the deep dive on the President of the United States.
02:43:01.000 And of course, I always do my regular shows, which are more just a soliloquy, I suppose.
02:43:06.000 But we'll be back with this show Monday at 8pm.
02:43:09.000 Thanks for hanging out, everybody.
02:43:10.000 We will see you all Monday.
