On this week's episode of The FiveThirtyEight Podcast, host John Rocha is joined by guest host Cody Dennison ( ) to discuss the latest in the midterms, including the latest on the Kamala Harris and Donald Trump polls, and what the campaigns are doing to earn their favor heading into the final stretch of the election. Plus, we talk about how the Boonies are doing their best to keep up with demand for their skateboards.
00:00:36.000Apparently, according to Kamala Harris and Democrats' own internal polling, yeah, she's
00:00:41.000Now, they try to maintain this in the press by saying, no, no, it's within the margin of error.
00:00:46.000But if we're going to track all of this based off of what we saw in 2016 and 2020, plus the midterms, then the bias certainly favors Donald Trump.
00:00:53.000But that could also be a narrative that they want.
00:00:58.000But often they say that if you think you're going to win, you end up losing.
00:01:01.000So everybody just needs to assume you're losing.
00:01:03.000However, I think Trump supporters need to be optimistic.
00:01:07.000And you need to realize that though you may be running full speed toward that finish line, Kamala Harris is right there.
00:01:14.000Be it shadow campaign or actually just good polls and ballot harvesting, whatever it may be, you've got to run twice as hard because you can win.
00:01:21.000So everybody's got to get out, register people to vote, get that voting done.
00:04:10.000It's basically the fourth tier of NASCAR. NASCAR acquired the Arkham Menard series in 2018 to run it under their banner, introducing spec engines and stuff like that, spec bodies and whatnot.
00:04:23.000And that's what I've been doing all year, and it's been a wild run.
00:04:30.000Everyone loves it. It's the wildest thing.
00:04:31.000And I don't know if they're scared to tell me, but you'll have big teams of recognizable people that come up to me in the garage and they nudge me and they're like, man, I love your sponsor.
00:06:57.000It's like a grenade going off. Allison and I were hanging out and on the TV, we look over off in the distance and we see the Tim Kast car and we're like, hey, look.
00:07:05.000And the next thing we know, it's on screen for like three minutes.
00:07:08.000Yeah. But yeah, we'll get into everything else.
00:07:10.000Yeah, sorry about that. Sorry to derail that.
00:07:13.000That's awesome, man. So I'm Seamus Coughlin.
00:07:16.000I do cartoons on a YouTube channel called Freedom Tunes.
00:07:18.000If you guys want to go over there and check that out, we released a cartoon on Tuesday about Kamala Harris's code switching, her many wonderful accents.
00:07:25.000We've also got a cartoon coming out tomorrow about the horrible delayed response to the hurricane.
00:07:30.000The irony is we were actually supposed to release that today, but because of the hurricane, we also had to Push it off.
00:07:36.000But if you guys want to go over there, check that out.
00:07:38.000We totally scorched Kamala for how horrible her administration and how horribly they've responded to this.
00:07:43.000So go over there, check that out, subscribe, and I'm looking forward to a good show.
00:07:50.000We shot a movie out in L.A. with Snow Story Productions.
00:07:52.000I want to give a shout-out to Austin Herring, the director, producer, and also Wes Armstrong, one of the other lead actors, and J.R. DeGuzman, the other lead actor.
00:08:49.000Not about the God thing, but the government weather control.
00:08:52.000But tomorrow on the Culture War podcast, youtube.com slash Tim Kest, it's going to be a ridiculous, raucous podcast discussing weather manipulation.
00:08:59.000Shane Cashman talks a lot about Operation Popeye in Vietnam, where they would cede the weather to scare the enemy and stuff.
00:09:05.000We'll get into it. We got Hannah Claire here too.
00:09:09.000I'm very grateful for everyone in Florida and that you didn't have to go through a Cat 5 hurricane, especially with everything else that's going on.
00:11:28.000Maybe younger ladies. She's like, I'll do the call her day.
00:11:31.000But like I said, I mean, Monica Lewinsky is a folk hero for some feminists.
00:11:35.000So in some ways, bringing Bill Clinton on is actually a gamble.
00:11:38.000That's why I say, like, they are going to throw everything they can because they are not confident in this election.
00:11:43.000Well, isn't it so interesting that we never got, like, a mainstream feminist analysis of the power imbalance that existed between the most powerful man in the country and his interns?
00:11:51.000I think you did. I think there are a lot of people...
00:11:52.000No, I'm saying in the mainstream. Like, this is not something that the media would touch on, in spite of their left-wing biases and the fact that they believe in girl power and women and want to protect them from being assaulted.
00:12:01.000Maybe, but I think Monica Lewinsky has become... She's, like, done the round on podcasts.
00:12:03.000I mean, she is not the same person she was.
00:12:06.000At least her reputation is not the same as it was for her.
00:12:08.000I mean, she had a collaboration with Reformation, like a clothing brand.
00:12:13.000And again, this is largely due to the Me Too movement and sex-positive feminism.
00:12:17.000But... Still, nonetheless, in the ninth hour, they're bringing Bill Clinton onto the campaign trail.
00:12:23.000They brought Dick Cheney in, which I thought was shocking.
00:12:26.000That's hilarious. The warmongering war arm of the Republican Party now is serving the Democrats.
00:12:32.000And we'll talk about it later, but Tim Waltz is getting with World of Warcraft gamers.
00:12:37.000It just feels massively, really, really desperate.
00:12:39.000Part of what I thought was so hilarious about the Dick Cheney thing was, okay, so you had Democrats going on and on about gun violence for a week, and then Dick Cheney endorses Kamala and they celebrate.
00:13:47.000Do you think that if they had allowed there to be an open convention and allowed Democrats to stump and basically have miniature campaigns leading up to the DNC, that voters would feel more engaged?
00:14:32.000Sorry to interrupt. No, now we're in the Biden saga with Captain Kamala Harris second in command, and it's been a catastrophe.
00:14:40.000So there was this funny—we did a short earlier— Atlantic says, for the first time, or no, for only the fifth time ever, we are endorsing a presidential candidate, Kamala Harris.
00:14:51.000And the image they use says, the case for Kamala, and it shows the resolute desk empty.
00:14:55.000And it's just like, that's a heck of a symbolism right there.
00:16:32.000Yeah, no, I would agree with you. And I think that a lot of the polls will artificially inflate the Democrats' number in order to demoralize Republicans.
00:16:39.000That said, even though I think Trump is further ahead than the polls are saying that he is right now, there's something I saw a leftist on Twitter say to their audience that I will say to everybody here in our audience.
00:16:51.000So make sure you still get out there, even if it is the case that Trump is 30 points ahead, according to the polls, which he's not right now, Steve.
00:17:06.000Right. And I think this year in particular, given that I think something like 3 million Americans are without internet connection because of the storms that have rolled through, polls are right now not as accurate as maybe they could be.
00:17:18.000And I would assume the same thing is true for the betting market.
00:17:21.000Anything that you would be calculating data or maybe submitting your opinion online, there's a huge portion of people who...
00:17:29.000Probably support Trump because I'm just going off the North Carolina red states that were so impacted.
00:17:34.000But who could support either candidate who are not able to be surveyed?
00:17:42.000And except for I think Rasmussen was the only one who got it right.
00:17:45.000But this year, I think the polls actually do not have a chance of being accurate, not necessarily because of bias, but because they cannot get to two Americans to survey.
00:17:53.000Well, and this is actually part of what I am curious about.
00:17:56.000Firstly, your point about not having Americans to survey.
00:18:20.000I don't know. I'm a little skeptical because, again, I think they view putting the Democrat ahead in all the polls as a demoralization tactic.
00:18:46.000That said, get out and vote regardless.
00:18:50.000Especially because the down ticket race is really needed.
00:18:52.000I think sometimes people in areas that are like, well, it's definitely going to—I mean, you're from Alabama, so you maybe don't have this experience.
00:18:58.000But, you know, if you're from a blue area, you're expecting a blue governor, you know, you think, ah, well, like— Trump's never going to win my state or, you know, a Republican will never win this office.
00:19:07.000So it doesn't matter. And I think especially in the down ticket races, some of them were decided by a few thousand votes.
00:19:13.000I mean, it really does matter if you turn out.
00:19:15.000You can't just write off your area because it historically turns a certain color.
00:19:20.000Yeah, well, that's true. Even if you're in a deep blue or deep red state, your vote counts for something.
00:19:26.000Even if you're not able to flip your state, if 20,000, 30,000, 40,000 more people vote for a Republican in a deep blue state than normally do, that tells the Republican Party something about the quality of candidate that they need to be selecting for.
00:19:39.000Yeah, it definitely gives them something to go off of.
00:19:41.000I mean, what if you flip your state senator and that's one more vote in favor of legislation that matters to you on the state level?
00:19:48.000I know we worry a lot about what the federal government's going to do, and there's good reason for that.
00:19:51.000But more than likely, it's your state representatives that are going to be deciding the things that immediately impact you, including your state budget.
00:20:00.000And as much, I get why all eyes are focused on the top of the ticket, but I think you have to stay motivated.
00:20:07.000I used to staunchly suggest if you don't know what you're voting for, don't vote.
00:20:11.000But do you think it's better for someone to vote for the same person that someone they respect is voting for if they don't know anything about it than to not vote at all?
00:20:21.000I mean, I've sort of taken a similar line to you in the past, and I even made a video about this with the Foundation for Economic Education, where we were basically saying, if you need a celebrity to tell you to vote, you shouldn't.
00:20:32.000Don't go vote if that's the reason that you're voting.
00:20:35.000I do think it makes sense, for example, like, let's say you have a married couple.
00:20:38.000The wife doesn't pay that much attention to politics.
00:20:40.000The husband says, hey, we should vote for this guy.
00:20:42.000He's way better. They both vote for him, right?
00:20:44.000That's one thing. I think that's wise, and that's how it should be, if that's the case.
00:20:49.000The person you respect is not someone who's actually involved in your life, and you respect them because of something that's completely unrelated to their political knowledge or your well-being, then I would say you shouldn't vote based on what they say.
00:21:00.000I want to jump to this clip that's gone viral, and I want to stress, as we're talking right now, the question Ian asked is, the gist of it is, if you don't really know who to vote for, should you participate or take someone else's advice?
00:22:37.000Voting is dangerous. You have a right to own a gun, but guns are dangerous.
00:22:41.000And if someone is, you know, they take a gun and they do something like they're screwing around with it, people can get hurt.
00:22:46.000If this woman goes and votes, she could literally be voting to figuratively set the curtains on fire because she has no idea what she's talking about.
00:22:55.000Why are we allowing people like that Or I should say, not so much allowing, but why do we accept that as culturally, socially normal?
00:23:02.000That people who literally are like, I have no idea what's going on, but I'm voting for Kamala.
00:23:07.000Why do we accept that? I think it's because the other option would be to have some small group of people decide who gets to and who doesn't get to.
00:23:23.000The more uninformed people there are voting, the easier it is for a small handful of people to gain control over the country because they can just trick all the dumb people into voting for them, basically.
00:23:33.000I'm thinking way back when they started the Constitution and they decided we're going to let everyone that has stake in land vote.
00:24:02.000Like, back in the day, you've got, let's say you've got 50 homes and farms, and all of the homeowners are coming together to determine how they're going to handle their local community, and they say, we live here, we're voting.
00:24:11.000Do you live here? No. Well, then you don't get to vote on how we live.
00:24:14.000That was basically your ID and proof of being part of the community.
00:24:18.000Now, I agree. The economy has changed.
00:24:20.000Population density has changed. We have people who rent.
00:24:23.000And so an ID perhaps is what you should have.
00:24:25.000I think in order to vote, you need an ID. But I got one real simple thing for you.
00:24:29.000I'm going to make it as easy as possible for everyone to vote, okay?
00:25:18.000None of the above. It's going to be a weird time in American history.
00:25:22.000You just got to notice that all the PSAs that tell people to get out and vote will go on and on about how voting is a civic responsibility and duty, but they will never ever tell you that staying informed on the issues is a civic responsibility and duty.
00:25:37.000What I'm saying is, voting is not a duty.
00:25:47.000I mean, the vast majority of young people can't even tell you what two countries border the USA. It's just a small questionnaire of simple questions to allow people to move forward and vote.
00:28:53.000Right now... They would say, like, the illiteracy is not an argument for a blank ballot because everybody has to read the ballot.
00:29:01.000That's it. So they can read, but they can't write.
00:29:05.000What? I think something like that's good, but here's the unfortunate reality, and I think this is just ridiculous and a dirty tactic, but trying to have any kind of educational standard for whether people vote is immediately going to be called racist because poll tests were used for racist reasons, and because standards were at one time in one circumstance racist, that means having any standards for voters of any kind for the rest of history is also racist.
00:29:30.000The funny thing though is what you were saying about the jingle and changing your name is everyone would literally just change their names to like Tim Pool or something.
00:29:38.000Well it's funny because one of the people in chat was like Vivek Ramaswamy would be done.
00:29:46.000No, he'd change his name to like V. He would change his name to Vivek.
00:29:50.000And it would be like V-I-V-E-K. You're done.
00:29:53.000But then they would do jingle commercials.
00:29:55.000I still don't care. I literally don't care if it's Vivek or anybody else.
00:29:58.000If you are voting and you don't even know the name of the person you're voting for, your vote doesn't count.
00:30:20.000That's not true. 150 years ago, people didn't really want to read it.
00:30:24.000150 years ago, you had to go to a polling station and write down the person's name yourself.
00:30:27.000And so what the parties would do is they would issue papers with people's names on it to the citizens being like, this is a list of the people you should vote for if you support us.
00:30:36.000Then they would go in and write down those names and submit them.
00:30:39.000That's how it works. The idea that that is too much to ask in order to participate in selecting the leaders of the most powerful nation on the planet is ludicrous.
00:30:47.000Like in Greece, they would, way 2,000 years ago, they'd have a black stone and a white stone, and you'd just put whatever color stone you wanted in to vote for your candidate, or vote for your idea, because they probably didn't have literacy throughout the system.
00:30:58.000The one time they got 8,000 stones at midnight.
00:31:02.000They're like, that's crazy! You're all painted black.
00:31:04.000Looks like I win. No, it's just the funny thing is the guy carrying the rocks struggling to bring the mail-in votes in.
00:31:12.000I just collected these from my friends.
00:31:14.000Three in the morning, all these rocks we found.
00:31:16.000Is there a way to write down the names of the people, but it doesn't matter if it's spelled exactly right?
00:31:33.000It's like, what, the British English Library?
00:31:36.000You gotta learn that and memorize that to participate in the system?
00:31:38.000I just, I gotta say, it would also be one thing if, man, I mean, I'm about to walk back what I was about to say, because I was going to say we have an educational system that teaches people how to read and write, but we actually don't.
00:32:29.000That's insane. Basically, they're voting for electors.
00:32:31.000That's what we have in our system, too, is you're voting for electors.
00:32:33.000You're not actually voting for Donald Trump directly.
00:32:34.000Yeah, the Founding Fathers are smart people.
00:32:36.000They created layer upon layer to make sure that there were smarter people who were well-informed on how these things run who were in charge while still keeping some democratic element of it.
00:32:46.000So if the electors could use discernment and say, I got 81% of the votes spelled correctly for Donald Trump and 19% of the votes were incorrect.
00:32:55.000So I, as an elector, can decide not to acknowledge the 19% of the incorrect.
00:33:00.000Or I could use discernment, but then you're kind of leaving it up to how the guy feels.
00:33:06.000Well, it depends on if there's an official policy there for that type of thing.
00:33:10.000There's so many ways to misspell a word, like John, for sure.
00:33:14.000It's one of the most common names in English.
00:33:15.000I guess my point is you would just have to have a standardized policy.
00:33:19.000You would either be in a county or state or municipality that counts ballots that are spelled incorrectly or doesn't, but it could not be up to the discernment of whoever happens to be counted.
00:33:30.000Yeah, the ballot counter, that would be way worse.
00:33:32.000Yeah. Do you think that people are motivated to vote this year?
00:33:37.000Or do you think they're more likely to stay at home?
00:33:41.000I think people are motivated because everybody's almost hyper-radicalized.
00:33:46.000It seems more tribal this time around.
00:33:49.000So I feel like people are really, really charged up to vote, which I think actually plays well for Donald Trump.
00:33:57.000Well, there's a small percentage of people that I feel like do their own research.
00:34:02.000But there's also people that just follow their confirmation bias wherever they go.
00:34:06.000It doesn't matter. It's like the girl in that clip.
00:34:08.000She's just repeating what one or two or three of her friends told her.
00:34:11.000That's why she can't give any examples for what she believes.
00:34:16.000That's a lot of people. I had a friend recently, and I say recently.
00:34:19.000It's about six months ago. They knew me from YouTube, and they said they really wanted to move down south because they live in LA. They hate it there.
00:35:20.000It's all because it's repeated in popular media.
00:35:23.000Yeah, I had a really, really woke white friend tell me something similar.
00:35:26.000She had wanted to move and she was like, but I could never go anywhere in the South because they're all homophobic and racist.
00:35:31.000And I was like, but have you ever spent any time in the South?
00:35:34.000And she's like, no, I haven't. I just know this.
00:35:36.000Yeah, dude, I saw an infographic floating around on Twitter that some lefty posted that had like thousands and thousands and thousands of likes and shares about sundown towns in the United States.
00:35:47.000And it had a bunch of towns labeled as sundown towns.
00:35:51.000I was like, you have to be kidding me.
00:35:53.000That's just farming. It's just not true.
00:35:57.000They'll say, yeah, this is a town where if a black person is there, they'll get arrested or hurt.
00:36:30.000This is funny. Trump touts American manufacturing tax breaks for U.S. companies that make goods at home in speech to Detroit Economic Club.
00:36:50.000And what do you think Harris Walz has to counter this amazing maneuver in this campaign season?
00:36:58.000Oh no, Tim Waltz held a rally next to World of Warcraft?
00:37:03.000Okay, this is incredible because this is the meme.
00:37:07.000There was a meme going around where someone made a video of Harris Waltz doing a rally while someone was playing one of those games like Jungle Runner.
00:37:14.000You ever see that? Or Subway Runner or something?
00:37:17.000What are they called? Where you're just constantly running left or right?
00:37:21.000That TikTok trend, yeah. Right, because people would make videos where they would talk about stuff.
00:37:24.000This has been a long trend on YouTube for a long time, where someone plays a video game while talking about something.
00:37:28.000And so a lot of podcasts were video game play.
00:37:31.000And then the funniest thing that would happen is, when people started to realize that these videos did well, they would take other people's gameplay, put it on the screen, sit back and start talking, so they'd simulate them talking while playing a video game.
00:37:43.000Well, uh... I guess this is what Harris Waltz thinks is going to counter the Trump rally.
00:37:48.000Look, Trump has a rally where he's like, we're going to cut your taxes, ladies and gentlemen.
00:37:52.000And Tim Waltz has a rally where he's like, look, they're playing World of Warcraft.
00:37:55.000Now, the most offensive thing about this is not even that Tim Waltz had a video game playing at his rally.
00:38:00.000It's that they chose World of Warcraft.
00:38:24.000It's more like less attention span type of game.
00:38:28.000It used to be you'd hit up your friends and be like, hey, you guys want to go do a dungeon?
00:38:31.000And it would be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, let me take 20 minutes to fly to you, and then we'll find some other people.
00:38:35.000And you're looking for someone that can be a tank, and you're talking to people and getting to know people.
00:38:39.000And now it's just you push a button, you queue up, you get in, and your dude's already running forward attacking the tank, and you're just chasing after him, trying to heal him.
00:38:46.000And then the dungeon ends and they just disappear.
00:38:48.000Yeah. This is kind of wild, too, because without going and wasting time, do they not realize that's what ruined the game?
00:38:53.000That it was fun when it was hard to build communities and earn the success in the game?
00:38:58.000But I digress. Back to what people really care about, which I got to be honest, most people probably actually care about the video game.
00:39:53.000I also, I love the idea, I thought you were going to go here with this, I love the idea that Tim Walz's son was like, Dad, you have to have World of Warcraft playing alongside you while you speak.
00:40:02.000and baron trump was like dad you need to make interest payments on car loans
00:40:08.000that is what is going to get americans to vote for you but the reality is that's
00:40:12.000actually a very interesting and well thought out policy whenever democrats
00:40:15.000propose things like this it's like uh let's give you free college like let's
00:40:18.000just hand something out for free and it's not really a well thought out or
00:40:21.000intricate plan for how you could actually help the economy i don't necessarily know that i would agree with um
00:40:26.000Writing off the interest that you're paying on a car loan.
00:40:30.000But obviously the auto industry has not been in great condition.
00:40:35.000I know that car dealerships, not a lot of people know this, car dealerships, as far as I understand, they can actually tack extra percentage points on your loan that end up getting paid to the dealership.
00:40:43.000And that's one of the ways that they make money.
00:40:44.000And so this would also, regardless of how we feel about that practice, is clearly something that would keep dealerships open, even though that's not a policy that I love.
00:40:51.000Point is, this is clearly something that some thought has gone into and not...
00:40:55.000How can I pander to the least educated group of voters with free stuff?
00:41:00.000It's what I see every single time I scroll my feed.
00:41:03.000It's I'll see Trump saying something about tax cuts.
00:41:11.000Especially when you see the 12% self-employment tax and you're like, I just want to die.
00:41:16.000It's crazy. When you're self-employed, it's insane.
00:41:19.000But then I scroll down my feed a little more and I just see a celebrity number...
00:41:25.0001A is now supporting Kamala Harris, and it's all aimed at just Zoomers.
00:41:32.000Now, granted, it's not a game that would appeal to Zoomers.
00:41:34.000Maybe they're trying to get people in their 30s, because we used to play it.
00:41:38.000But it's just this hyper-attention deficit audience that needs a game.
00:41:44.000I was going to say, I thought it was an ADHD thing where you listen better if there's this other thing moving.
00:41:48.000I don't know what it is. I get frustrated because I'll scroll through Reels or something on Instagram, and it'll be one of those things where somebody's talking about something important, and then somebody's welding beside it on a different screen, and I just immediately scroll because I don't need the distraction.
00:42:05.000I like to watch or hear whatever somebody's saying, and that's crazy to me that you have one where there's all these policies, and then you have the other is just, here's these celebrities that...
00:42:15.000No one cares about. That's the astroturfing I mentioned earlier in the show, where it feels like it's the Potemkin candidate.
00:42:20.000Like, this guy, they're just putting him near cool things and hoping that it catches fire.
00:43:25.000But this is also, I mean, look, it used to be the case that the voting age in this country was 21 as well.
00:43:30.000So it wasn't just, and we were just talking about this, how Trump has these well-thought-out policies, and you've got all these celebrities endorsing Kamala to try to pander to some 18-year-old who didn't know anything yet.
00:43:40.000You've got to remember, back when the voting age was 21, This was at a time where people were already living on their own and providing for themselves by the time they were 18.
00:43:48.000You go even further towards the founding of our country, it was like by the time you were 16 you were expected to be able to provide for yourself.
00:43:54.000So by the time you were 21, you had been living in the real world dealing with real problems for several years.
00:43:59.000And then at that point we were willing to allow a citizen to make civic decisions.
00:44:04.000Today, you're not even on your own or considered independent in most cases until you're about 22 years old When you're done with college, it's not considered abnormal to live with your parents before then or not be taking care of yourself.
00:44:14.000And we let people vote before they even reach that age.
00:44:17.000Here's the pitch from Trump. He should say, we're going to raise the voting age to 32.
00:44:21.000And that way, Gen Z, the Democrats will stop pandering to you.
00:44:25.000They'll leave you alone. And your advertisements will be K-Flub and Snoosh Snoosh and whatever celebrity name I don't know.
00:44:33.000I actually can't think of, other than people who are 18 years old entering military service, I mean, there's some exceptions you can make for people who are really giving to their country, but the idea that by default you are able to vote at 18 I think is ridiculous.
00:44:48.000And that way, if you're still dependent, you can't vote.
00:44:50.000Nope, because what you're saying then is single women get more voting power than married men.
00:45:00.000That's what I'm saying. You have to weight it on the basis of the household.
00:45:04.000So if it's a single household, but if you have eight people there and you're the head of household, you get eight votes.
00:45:08.000How about this? If you don't have kids, you can't vote.
00:45:11.000I think there should be a question about who we allow to vote.
00:45:14.000But to your point about 18-year-olds, yes, we now treat 18-year-olds like they are actually children.
00:45:20.000Like we needed to decide as a culture if we're sticking with 21, and that's true for all kinds of stuff, or if you are an adult at 18 and our expectation is that you behave that way.
00:45:29.000Because right now we're kind of doing the worst of both, right?
00:45:37.000Yeah. They're okay with you making adult decisions, particularly the left is okay with you making adult decisions if it's a way for them to exploit you.
00:46:05.000So, for example, when you're 18 and don't know any better, they'd love for you to vote.
00:46:08.000They even want to lower the voting age, depending on how far they are onto the left, because you're easier to exploit.
00:46:13.000These are people who will tell you that when you're 18 years old, you're too foolish and underdeveloped to be able to take out a loan, but you're mature enough to go post on OnlyFans and have those pictures be on the internet forever.
00:46:21.000So it's totally incoherent. The reality is they want to get as much as they can from younger people.
00:47:11.000Because they just expect the students to go into debt for it.
00:47:14.000Exactly. So, my friends, while we're just previously discussing what Tim Waltz was doing to compete with Donald Trump's new tax cut plan, what do you think Gretchen Whitmer is doing to try and boost her standing in this year?
00:47:36.000Which I don't even understand what this is.
00:47:38.000Like, look. I interpreted it, first of all, you pointed out on your Twitter, and I agree that it looks very fetishy and weird, but it's clearly a mockery of the Eucharist, right?
00:47:47.000She's like delivering this as if she's a priest giving the body of Christ to a parishioner.
00:47:53.000She's feeding a Dorito to a citizen, which is just weird.
00:47:56.000Food coloring is pretty toxic, I think.
00:47:58.000Okay, and you have two daughters. When they come back home and they leave their Stanley Cups lying around, do you ever think about getting a post-birth abortion?
00:48:05.000Ha ha! Well, first of all, thank you for raising that, because there's no such thing.
00:48:11.000Great. So I think it's really important for us to make sure people understand that.
00:48:14.000I don't understand, like, how they just lie.
00:48:17.000It's like, they're just evil, because it was former Governor Northam, right?
00:48:22.000It was Northam, and he was like, the baby will be delivered, then will be made comfortable, brought into another room where the doctor and the mother will make a decision.
00:48:30.000Mm-hmm. Like, what do you think that means?
00:48:32.000This is one of the only things Obama voted against in the Senate, by the way, was a bill that would require you to save a child that was born after a botched abortion.
00:49:40.000Shout out to Ryan Long. You know, recently there's been a lot of articles pointing out how men are far less emotionally intelligent than women and how that's been ruining their relationships.
00:49:49.000Oh yeah, you know, I always say the wife's more intelligent than me.
00:49:52.000Emotionally, of course. You know, it's unfortunate, but it's an apartment that we lack in.
00:49:56.000Our plane gets delayed an hour, whereas my natural instinct would be to say, it is what it is, there's nothing we can do.
00:50:02.000Brittany had the emotional intelligence to realize this is a big deal.
00:50:05.000We should be arguing with Anyone who will listen, and in general, just going ballistic, regardless of whether or not it'll help.
00:50:11.000Look, it's not about whether or not it helps.
00:50:13.000For example, say you plan an outdoor event and it begins to rain, an emotionally unintelligent person like myself might suggest some sort of alternative or contingency, or maybe we'll do it on another day, as opposed to realizing that this is in fact the end of the world and you should be flying off the handle.
00:50:29.000You know, whether you're reading an article about COVID coming back or your Uber Eats driver brings you the wrong order, We as men do not have the emotional intelligence to realize that not only is this something we should be freaking out about, but we should also be becoming actively hostile to others who are remaining calm.
00:50:45.000Dude. Ryan and Danny, a grand slam on that one.
00:50:48.000But look, when I watched this ridiculous thing, it is insanity.
00:50:55.000And I'm just going to throw it back to that woman.
00:50:57.000We were covering the segment previously where a woman's like, Donald Trump is—it was funny what she says.
00:51:02.000He's like, you're going to vote for Trump or Kamala over Trump?
00:51:05.000And she goes, yeah, because I know what Trump has done.
00:51:07.000What did Trump do? I actually don't know.
00:51:08.000I don't watch any clips. She had no idea what she was talking about.
00:51:11.000I look at this stuff with Whitmer and this woman, and these are people who clearly have no idea what's going on and are just—they may as well be playing some kind of weird, I don't know, Simon Says game with each other where they're trying to figure out what is or is unacceptable based on arbitrary criteria.
00:51:27.000Meanwhile, me, who's just horribly emotionally unintelligent, thinks that we should have logic and reason behind the decisions we make that will ultimately lead to more fruitful society.
00:51:36.000If only I was as emotionally intelligent as Gretchen Whitmer.
00:51:39.000Yeah. I just think without Donald Trump, they would have very little to talk about.
00:51:43.000And that is sort of a problem in and among itself, right?
00:51:46.000If they're supposed to be two average, two above average intelligent women, why are all these jokes so lame?
00:51:53.000And why can't you actually articulate a new and original thought?
00:51:57.000You're recycling a joke that was kind of viral months ago?
00:52:00.000Like, okay, you can drop Stanley cups because you're kind of making fun of basic white girls.
00:52:04.000Like, I don't get it. It's just not that deep and you're not that good at this.
00:52:07.000Well, also, I mean, man, I hate to be that guy, but if I don't, I love being this guy!
00:52:13.000I love being this guy! If a male politician was like, you know, I think I would be able to reason with an animal better than I can reason with a woman, I think that might send shockwaves through the media.
00:52:24.000In fact, I think that would end that man's political career.
00:52:29.000Unless, honestly, Trump's someone who might be able to get away with saying it, but he wouldn't say that.
00:52:32.000If it was like a dog, if they're like, you'd be in the woods with a dog or with Kamala Harris, and you're like, I'd take the dog, because a dog could help you hunt.
00:52:39.000But if it was a hostile animal that wanted to eat you...
00:52:42.000Well, hold on. If it's specifically about Kamala Harris, I might even pick like a hostile animal.
00:55:32.000I think that there is a level of sort of gross self-absorption in all of this.
00:55:36.000And I don't think that even young moderate women would find this relatable or enjoyable.
00:55:42.000I just want to say – You know, I'm kind of a liberal guy, right?
00:55:45.000So I don't have the disgust reaction, reflex that Seamus has.
00:55:48.000You know, and he does. Like, when Kamala went and called her daddy, my reaction was, haha, what a fool, what an idiot.
00:55:54.000Seamus was legit, like, turn it off, this is disgusting.
00:55:57.000So, what happened was, I tried listening to some of it, and it was just, at some point, it was more of a moral disgust, because they don't actually get into discussing anything, like, viscerally repulsive.
00:56:07.000They're not talking about the gross sexual degenerate stuff there, but they were talking about stuff that was pretty morally repugnant, yeah.
00:56:13.000The reason I bring this up is that, you know, depending on the subject matter, Seamus, who is of good moral standing, will be like, no, no, this is bad.
00:56:21.000And, you know, someone like me, you know, growing up in the city and I'm not a Christian conservative guy, you know, I'm more tolerant.
00:56:26.000But I got to tell you, this clip I'm going to show you from Whitmer fills me with absolute disgust.
00:56:31.000It's gross. And it, this, you know, I say something like, Kamala's disqualified because she did not do this thing right or she's giving away our money in this regard.
00:56:40.000Gretchen Whitmer should be disqualified from office for this video.
00:57:04.000So, the video, for those that are just listening, is this woman on her knees, and Gretchen Whitmer slides a Dorito into her mouth with weird pop music, and then she shakes her head and smiles, and Gretchen Whitmer gives this weird look to the camera.
00:57:16.000It looks like weird fetishist content.
00:59:05.000I think what bothers me about this whole ordeal is, and I'm not particularly a smart man, But when I see all this parading, especially in politics, but especially this time around, because I think Harris is just a very bad actor.
00:59:17.000I think you need to be good at acting in some regard to pull off a lot of these things.
00:59:23.000And watching all these overt, hey, look, you know, I'm just like you type things, that's what's disgusting to me.
01:00:18.000Yes, rock. I'd rather have a beer with- Oh, they're so mad about this, too.
01:00:21.000I'm sorry, but when word got out that J.D. Vance played Magic, all of these woke Magic people were like, and they're screaming, and then they found out I played Magic.
01:00:28.000They got so mad. Dude, it's going to be so fun.
01:00:30.000Let's play. Commander, let's get pre-made decks, though, so it's balanced, because otherwise you're going to stomp.
01:00:34.000Anyway, I'd rather have a beer with Joe Biden, for sure.
01:00:37.000At this stage, where him getting shoved aside, I want to hang with that dude, because he's like- No, he's loose-lipped and mad right now.
01:03:20.000You know, the 20-year-old dudes who, like, make those cringe videos together where it's like they're weirdly obsessed with Kamala and Joe Biden.
01:04:25.000Guys, I honestly think that the actual campaign with Harry Sisson and this other dude, it's intentionally to make them as cringe as possible so that no one wants to support Democrats.
01:04:34.000Here, watch this. Trump's paying for it.
01:04:39.000Well, I did agree, so I guess now I have to vote.
01:06:17.000Thinking about the Ryan Long segment and the smashing the plates and all that stuff.
01:06:22.000You know, people say like, you know, women are so emotional and like men aren't.
01:06:25.000I think it's actually just that young men are just beaten down.
01:06:28.000And so they're just kind of like, I don't care.
01:06:31.000You know, a guy doesn't want to go smash plates because a lot of guys have, not every single guy, but a lot of guys, they've been treated like crap when they were younger.
01:06:47.000But I think we train young men not to throw plates.
01:06:50.000I mean, men are like, well, it's not that you should, but like men are taught earlier than women to be careful about how they show signs of aggression, right?
01:06:59.000And that standard is not true for women at all, for the most part.
01:07:02.000And I think, you know, that's not necessarily bad.
01:07:05.000But in this case, it looks misplaced because I don't know that a man looks at a man who's having this big emotional outburst and throwing plates as like a strong masculine man.
01:07:14.000Exactly. And also, I will add, Anna Claire, I think you're being generous when you use the word aggression to describe what we just saw there.
01:07:38.000So we have a wimpy little man-boy who just destroyed something useful over imaginary problems.
01:07:44.000That's what the Democratic Party is now.
01:07:46.000And this is a couple weeks old, but it is interesting to think of, like, so you guys are the destruction party, you're cool with the hurricane's destruction, you want to have destruction everywhere.
01:07:54.000You want controlled destruction, like a dude chopping wood for a purpose, not just burning trees down and like, ah!
01:08:00.000And you want... MMA fighters, you want to watch them take out their...
01:08:03.000You want to see a musician crushing it and screaming like his guts out?
01:08:07.000If Project 2025 happens, I will break all of the plates in my pantry.
01:08:11.000It needs to be a guy with a beard and bench pressing.
01:08:13.000That's what Harry says. Can you name one company that makes plates?
01:08:17.000No, actually, I can't. Well, actually, I probably could because I think there's certain generic brands.
01:08:21.000Like, I assume Walmart makes plates because they have plates at Walmart.
01:08:23.000And they have, like, generic Walmart plates.
01:08:25.000Some Pyrex makes plates. Like, Cruset makes plates.
01:10:10.000I don't know how much money he gets paid.
01:10:12.000They claim they don't get paid for doing this stuff, but they do work for some agency or something like this.
01:10:15.000I bet dude gets paid a lot of money, and he goes and hangs out with the boys, and then they're going to be like, ha ha, you're pro Kamala, and he's going to be like, do you want the beer or not?
01:10:25.000He goes to the bar, talks to girls, and he says, you see that guy breaking that plate?
01:10:29.000I don't know. I kind of assume he's surrounded by people who are also like, yeah, I'd love to have some influence and do what you're doing, right?
01:10:35.000So they probably just tell him positive things, even if they don't actually feel themselves.
01:10:39.000You know what my theory is? My theory is it's the exact same thing as that Dean guy.
01:10:42.000Like, if you were able to go to this guy's personal, like, four-people group message, it would probably be the most deranged stuff you've ever seen.
01:10:53.000You're like, oh my gosh, I can't believe this.
01:10:55.000And it'll come out in, like, ten years. It always does.
01:10:56.000Yeah. And also, I actually don't think he's there to appeal to young voters at all.
01:11:00.000He's there to appeal to, like, Democratic boomers who will then open their wallets for whatever campaign he's the youthful face of.
01:11:06.000Yeah. So this is something – and it happens on the left and the right.
01:11:10.000I'm seeing it more on the left right now.
01:11:12.000But there's a certain kind of content that is created for the express purpose of – Fooling older people into thinking younger people like it so that the older people will fund it.
01:11:23.000But it's really just for the older people who go, oh, look at this cool, look at the, you know, some wine moms, like this cool young man who throws plates at walls, young men like that, or whatever.
01:11:31.000Like, the target is actually the donor class.
01:11:36.000So if you could just fool them into thinking that the quote-unquote target likes it, they'll give you money.
01:11:40.000Because the young people don't have money.
01:11:42.000We know this. There's established facts in this economy.
01:11:45.000So, you know, while it's good to get their vote, I guess, really, you're not appealing to them if you're trying to cash in here.
01:11:50.000So, you guys know how, like, child stars end up going insane and getting crazy plastic surgery?
01:11:55.000Yeah. Do you think that'll happen to these guys?
01:12:14.000I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of these influencers got top surgery, but I don't know about like, look, man, I'll put it this way.
01:12:19.000The reason a lot of the young people in Hollywood who are child actors end up doing stuff like that is just because they're horribly abused as children by these disgusting, perverted producers.
01:12:28.000Here we go. Here we go. I remember those guys.
01:12:32.000I'm just imagining this is what Maori and sisters are going to look like when they're 30.
01:12:38.000Yeah, I don't want that to happen to those guys.
01:12:40.000I feel like we've really lost masculine direction from the year 2011 to 2019.
01:12:46.000I was saying this before, same with God. It feels like we were detached from the spirituality as a species in that decade.
01:12:51.000And, like, Obama was our masculine leader, but it was, like, Michelle that wore the pants, and that was cute in their relationship.
01:12:56.000And, like, obviously he's kind of a manly dude, but that was, like...
01:13:38.000And then it's gonna take another 10 years to teach people how to be masculine.
01:13:42.000Mandatory basic training in high school.
01:13:43.000Thank you. Have a nice day. I'll add this.
01:13:45.000I mean, this kind of brings it back full circle to what we were saying with Tim Walls.
01:13:49.000I think part of the reason the left sees Tim Walls and they say this will remind people of their father or their uncle is because the last 40 years of media produced in this country has depicted fathers exclusively as dorky, bumbling, soft idiots.
01:14:05.000And so when someone acts kind of like a clumsy, goofy dude, the media goes, oh, that's just like what a father figure is.
01:14:11.000But your average American, like, does Tim Walz remind you of your dad?
01:14:15.000No. No, yeah. Is anyone here to see Tim Walz and go, like, this reminds me of my dad?
01:14:19.000That would be one of the worst insults I could pay my father.
01:14:22.000He reminds me of a creepy neighbor when my parents told me not to go around. Yeah, he's just a weird guy.
01:14:46.000If he does win, they're going to get together on January 6, 2025 and say Trump is ineligible.
01:14:51.000And then MSNBC has the nerve to say Trump's family is preparing for a civil war.
01:14:56.000Yeah, because Raskin went out and said they were.
01:14:59.000Here we go from Axios. Doing whatever he can to try and interfere with the process, whether we're talking about manipulating electrical college counts in Nebraska or in Georgia or imposing other kinds of implements, said Jamie Raskin.
01:15:28.000Now, the funny thing about Nebraska is they want to make the state winner-take-all, which would mean no more extra-liberal jurisdiction Democrat elector vote.
01:15:36.000Democratic leaders, however, seem fully prepared to certify a Trump victory, making potential dissenters a small minority.
01:15:42.000Okay, well, I will just say this, right?
01:15:44.000Raskin had previously said this, prepare for civil war conditions.
01:15:48.000But we were talking about this earlier.
01:15:49.000It seems like the Democrats are gearing up for a Donald Trump victory.
01:15:54.000It seems like the media, it seems like all of the institutions now.
01:15:58.000Look, a couple days ago, YouTube had us on the front page.
01:16:03.000Like, default front page not signed in on a private browser, meaning that this typically simulates a regular person, probably geolocated.
01:16:11.000Don't get me wrong. So someone in this area goes to YouTube.com and boom, Tim Castile's on the front page.
01:16:25.000Something happened. Now, some people have said, well, you know, the CEO passed away and they got a new CEO, maybe.
01:16:30.000But looking at the messaging we're seeing across the board, it really does feel like everybody's basically like Trump is going to win and we need to get on his good side now.
01:16:41.000I'm not going to make any predictions here.
01:17:19.000The left always accuses you of the thing that they're doing, so it doesn't shock me that they're saying they wouldn't certify the election while clutching their pearls about, you know, Donald Trump potentially not conceding if he loses.
01:17:32.000Hillary Clinton insisted that she actually won that election and the election was stolen.
01:17:38.000A majority of Democrats, according to polling data, believed that Russia literally hacked election machines and changed ballots.
01:17:44.000You even go all the way back to the year 2000.
01:17:47.000After that election, you had left-wing pundits on national television all across the country saying that George W. Bush lost that election and that Al Gore was really the president and George W. Bush was illegitimate.
01:17:57.000And so this idea that conservatives and Republicans are election deniers is just ridiculous because there's been one election that has been called into question by conservatives and Republicans when Democrats have contested literally every single one that they have lost since the year 2000 and probably going even further back than that.
01:18:50.000And I find that interesting because if you were concerned that your election wasn't secure, wouldn't the best thing you could do for democracy be to say, I have concerns.
01:19:01.000People don't feel like their votes were accurately recorded.
01:19:05.000It is true that there has sort of been this subtle weaving of we can't trust elections if they don't come out the way we think they should into modern narrative.
01:19:17.000And I do think that there is a hypocrisy among Democrats where they are always OK with things that they do.
01:19:25.000But if conservatives were to do them, they didn't like them.
01:19:27.000The obvious ones are like the riots in 2020.
01:19:34.000I mean, this do as we say and not as we do has been around for a long time.
01:19:40.000I think what will happen will be interesting to like the fact that Axios is reporting this is fascinating to me because there would have been a time where this headline like suggesting that maybe the Democrats are doing something they shouldn't wouldn't exist at all.
01:19:56.000And I think that speaks to the fact that they actually do not like Kamal Harris that much.
01:20:00.000Yeah. I mean, she treated them really badly.
01:20:03.000She did not grant interviews for a long time.
01:20:05.000She wouldn't hold a press conference forever.
01:20:08.000She faked having her headphones in when she was walking past them.
01:20:12.000And so in some ways, she's done nothing to endear herself to win any favors among news media who are looking at her and saying...
01:20:19.000You are making us look like liars, and now we don't know that we can financially recover from running a pro-DNC news cycle.
01:20:28.000It's fair. I mean, Tucker Carlson made this point when he was interviewing J.D. Vance, but the media can make a candidate do interviews if they decide to do that.
01:20:39.000The media can choose to talk nonstop about the fact that a candidate isn't giving interviews and allow the reputational damage to set in.
01:20:48.000And then the candidate will end up doing interviews.
01:20:49.000They can do that. They just haven't done that with Kamala.
01:20:51.000They've really worn kid gloves with her.
01:20:54.000Like, when she gets any pushback, you're a little concerned, like, do they think she's going to lose?
01:20:58.000Because they've really been doing everything they can to cover for her.
01:21:01.000I thought that 60 Minutes was pretty incredible.
01:21:03.000I didn't see the whole interview. They interviewed Waltz and Kamala, and that guy was pretty hard on them.
01:21:10.000If I'm not mistaken, they changed one of her answers, though.
01:21:12.000Yeah, they edited it. Apparently more than once.
01:21:14.000It's weird. And, you know, Trump's now calling for their broadcast license to be rescinded or whatever.
01:21:18.000They should release the entire unedited interview.
01:21:22.000And so if it is edited, why do they put out a bad interview and then change it later?
01:21:27.000Because people are saying the original clip that got sent out made her look really, really bad.
01:21:32.000So in the full length they put on TV, they changed it.
01:21:35.000And I'm like... The full length makes her look bad.
01:21:38.000Look at the betting odds. Her polls are down in swing states and the betting odds are collapsing.
01:21:42.000Probably the White House went to the, what was it, CBS? Who owns that show, 60 Minutes?
01:21:47.000CBS. And was like, we're going to need you to, if you want to post anything, it's going to be edited.
01:21:51.000And by the way, if anyone thinks that's far-fetched, we do know that the White House was communicating with Facebook about what information...
01:22:29.000I'm like, this woman has so many different accents.
01:22:31.000She's very talented. Kamala, if you want a voice actor for Freedom Tunes, I'd be happy to have you.
01:22:35.000Happy to have you. I wonder if people, like the big establishment money, like BlackRock money, international money that's been supporting this AstroTurf campaign of Kamala Harris is like wondering if she's going to betray them at this point.
01:22:49.000They're like, she's just not trustworthy at all.
01:22:52.000Here's the thing. I cannot imagine anyone in politics seeing her as a threat on any level.
01:22:57.000I think whoever her handlers are, are not worried about her being able to get one over on them.
01:23:01.000Oh, yeah. That's why they're happy with it.
01:23:03.000Although I think they've resigned to losing.
01:23:05.000I mean, look, one of the theories we've had for the past year is that they can't build up any kind of campaign to beat Donald Trump.
01:23:14.000So they said, who can we sacrifice this time around?
01:23:19.000There can't be no nominee. But they're like, Newsom?
01:23:22.000Nah, Newsom's not going to win, and we could maybe use him next time around.
01:23:24.000Buttigieg? Well, he definitely won't win, but he might be administration cabinet worthy.
01:23:30.000Who don't we care about at all who we can just say fine right off and then try again in four years?
01:23:34.000Kamala. If I'm not mistaken, they actually had a legal obligation to keep her as the candidate if they wanted to retain the campaign finance.
01:23:41.000Yeah. Because they're using, apparently she's got her own FEC number, and Biden's got one, and she's begun using his despite having a different one, and there's a huge controversy apparently no one cares about that Biden can't give his money to Kamala.
01:23:59.000Imagine if I said to you, dear viewer, hey guys, give me $10 a month at TimCast.com and I will keep working day and night, 16 hours a day and weekends.
01:24:08.000Then you do. And I'd say, thank you for your money.
01:24:11.000Ian, you're in charge. Bye, everybody.
01:24:40.000Now you're dealing with a completely different argument, a completely different situation, and it's probably an argument you can't make.
01:24:45.000So I do think they were stuck with Kambala because of that.
01:24:48.000I would think that they would have to use, like, what is it, the 25th Amendment to have Biden removed from office in order to keep the money for that office?
01:24:59.000I don't know. Which is so funny because they have effectively done that, right?
01:25:03.000We have a de facto 25th Amendment situation where everyone knows he's not in charge and hasn't been since long before he stepped out of the campaign, but the media just covers for them.
01:25:13.000I was talking to my mother about this, who's pretty open-minded, and I was like,
01:25:16.000explaining to Kamala Harris, I was like, they didn't have a primary. She's like,
01:25:18.000well, no, I mean, I think they did. And I was like, no, they didn't actually.
01:25:21.000They just selected Kamala Harris. She's like, oh. I was like, I think what maybe
01:25:24.000had happened, conspiracy theory, is that they waited until it was too late in the process to
01:25:27.000have a primary, and then they made the guy resign. And we're like, hey, we have no other choice.
01:25:31.000She was like, that's very smart of them. I was like, yes, and very evil, very highly intelligently
01:25:35.000evil, if that's what they did, bypassing the democratic process and threatening democracy.
01:28:24.000Joe Biden's taking a job from another America.
01:28:26.000Yet another victim. I think when you're doing like arts and entertainment or athletics in general, the way you want to instill your political endeavors is to get things done through it.
01:28:58.000They don't want to get tied into a guy.
01:29:00.000But movements about end the Vietnam War, that was great.
01:29:04.000A lot of people could get on board with that, but they weren't singing about how great Nixon was or how great JFK was or any of that stuff.
01:29:11.000Maybe they should have been. I don't know, though.
01:30:05.000Like, that's all the lyrics. But then you have like a rap feature where he starts rapping the name Donald Trump over and over again.
01:30:11.000You know what I'll do? We have so many high-profile people that come and go, just ask them to say Donald Trump's name, and then create a song where it's just every high-profile personality saying Donald Trump.
01:30:21.000It'll be the number one song in the world.
01:30:24.000But you want to do a song that's the number one song in the world for like 10 years, that people remember, that's like, this is how we fix the economy.
01:30:30.000That's what this song was about. We need to make the Macarena of the 2020s, and it's just going to be Donald Trump.
01:30:35.000No, no. I mean, Macarena kind of is pro-Kamala.
01:30:57.000I think the question is, do you want to make something that is art and has a value behind it, or are you more interested in political messaging through a medium that is often used for art?
01:31:09.000I mean, this is something that we've talked about with Tom McDonald.
01:31:12.000He'll make these songs that are about Trump or whatever, and it's not that they're not good and that people aren't entertained by them, but it's definitely more about politics than about necessarily...
01:31:24.000Other things, like a creative display as an artist.
01:33:25.000You know what we could do with this song that's coming out?
01:33:28.000It's, um, the lyrics are, uh, first person, uh, it's, it's from the, it's, it's written from the perspective of someone who wants to rule the world, basically.
01:33:38.000And so we could make the music video, we're working on a music video that's fun and silly, we could just make it a music video where Kamala Harris is going around just, like, abusing people.
01:33:45.000It's, it's wonderful because it's apolitical, but it has that meaning of, like, obsessive oligarchs, like, someone that wants to own the world through a month, through power, right?
01:33:52.000Yeah. And the lyrics are first person, like, I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do that.
01:33:59.000I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth, but Creedence Clearwater Revival, like, they didn't mention politicians by name, but you knew who they were talking about.
01:34:05.000But it would be funny if, like, the music video was Kamala Harris walking around and she, like, steals a homeless guy's cup of change and then, like, you know, kicks over his sign and then she, like, grabs a coffee from somebody and then just, like, drinks it and throws it on the ground and looks at him and...
01:34:17.000Like, the whole music video was just her doing whatever she wanted.
01:34:19.000Just her walking down the street, like, yeah, bullying people.
01:34:23.000Right. That would, like, actually kind of make me like her more.
01:34:26.000That's the song. Okay, the song we're putting out that we're hoping to have released by Halloween is basically, imagine Kamala Harris walking down the street and just, like, she grabs, there's, like, a busker playing guitar, she grabs the guitar and smashes it and throws it in the garbage.
01:34:55.000All right, we're going to go to Super Chat.
01:34:57.000So if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button?
01:35:00.000Subscribe to this channel. And of course, if you're listening on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts, you got to give us five stars or however many stars you can give us.
01:35:08.000Give us ten if they let you because it really does help.
01:35:11.000It does. Apparently, that's how it works.
01:35:12.000The more stars you have, the more they bump you up and recommend you to other people.
01:35:16.000And oh boy, they don't want to recommend us.
01:35:19.000No. I don't want to say too much, but my understanding is basically if you're like...
01:35:25.000Daily Wire or Crowder or any right-wing podcast, you're basically just never getting anywhere.
01:35:30.000Good luck. Alright, we'll grab some super chats from you, though, my friends.
01:35:35.000And also become a member at TimCast.com.
01:35:37.000Because we're going to have a members-only uncensored show, which will be a hoot and a half.
01:35:41.000We're going to give you that extra half tonight.
01:35:43.000But not a holler. Because we love you.
01:35:45.000He won't do a hoot and a holler, but he will do a hoot and a half.
01:35:47.000And then we can tell you about our shenanigans.
01:35:49.000Seamus and I are engaged in shenanigans.
01:35:52.000It is really funny. I don't want to say it on the main show.
01:35:55.000It's kind of funny. It's really funny.
01:35:57.000We were emotionally intelligent enough to come up with a really good joke.
01:38:46.000You would actually have to run to an instance, and everybody ran there together, and you met up.
01:38:50.000It was so much fun. It was like its own living world that you could get lost in.
01:38:54.000And then when they started queuing it up, I mean, I remember going through the old world, and there was no one in it.
01:38:59.000Because everybody was just queuing in Dalaran.
01:39:01.000Oh, yeah. In the original game, you're in Stormwind, right?
01:39:04.000If you're playing Alliance. And it's like, hey, we're going to do VC. And then you're like, I've got to run to Windfall.
01:39:09.000And so it literally took you like 10 minutes of just having your character run all the way there into the cave, fighting through the cave to get to the dungeon.
01:39:16.000And Van Cleef was what they called the dungeon.
01:39:19.000Was it Undermines? I think it was called something.
01:39:57.000Okay, so Trump got shot and then stood back up, and they think they're going to convince us that Tim Walz is the manly candidate because he pointed at an air filter.
01:41:40.000I respect the Super Chat, the $1.99 you sent, which means...
01:41:43.000I think it means iPhone. But also, the reason I think you keep bringing it up is because you know it's not quite perfect, but it's a good thing to craft.
01:41:50.000Also, here's a secret most people don't know.
01:41:52.000If it says $4.99 in your Super Chat, you're on an iPhone.
01:42:22.000Side note, if Kamala wins, don't think my shop can endure four more years of this.
01:42:27.000Enjoy the superchats and membership while you can, good sir.
01:42:29.000Spoon, ha ha. I want to play my mana vault after that, but also you should ban Sol Ring.
01:42:34.000Nope. So, they banned Jeweled Lotus, and I'm still using it, and it doesn't, all it does is make, I've got wacky commanders that are too big to play, and with Jeweled Lotus, you can actually play them in a meaningful way, but they still lose.
01:43:43.000Yeah, man. I think older women might have a higher rate of twins and triplets because it's like, well, if you're going to do it, now's the time.
01:43:49.000Just have them all now so you don't have to do it.
01:43:51.000Yeah, the body releases more eggs later.
01:46:48.000Then the other guy would go, no thanks, I got one already.
01:46:51.000So the guy would end up buying it, and that's how they trick people into buying things.
01:46:53.000That game was wild. And then they ruined it.
01:46:56.000Well, Chinese bots came in and started mining gold and flooding the market, and then all other sorts of problems came in.
01:47:01.000Yeah. Let's talk about real things in that World of Warcraft and Magic Gathering.
01:47:06.000How about that? Joshua Kemble says, On the blank paper ballot thing, it's not about your academic level, it's about how well you are informed.
01:47:13.000There are ways to make sure you spell the names right if you care enough.
01:47:23.000For the best person in the Republican Party, vote V-I-V-E-K-R-A-M-A-S-W-A-M-Y. That's all right.
01:47:32.000Got to workshop that one a little bit, but...
01:47:35.000Or he just changes his name to, like, Bill.
01:47:39.000Yeah, exactly. All of our presidents for the next 200 years will just be like, Josh.
01:47:42.000But then will they be like, if you change your name, will they be like, you're dishonest.
01:47:46.000Like, you want to be not true to who you are.
01:47:48.000That's hilarious. Garrett Lancaster says, the Waltz Harris stunt with Warcraft was definitely because Blizzard is one of the wokiest of woke companies.
01:47:57.000And that's why their game has completely collapsed.
01:48:33.000It's Alteric Valley. Yeah, Battlegrounds are legit.
01:48:36.000Alteric Valley has always still been awesome, and it was funny because I didn't play for 15 years, and then I went to Alteric Valley as a rogue, and you can still stealth cap the flags over and over again using the same strategies because people are dumb and don't learn.
01:48:50.000I think the action is still fun in that it's hard.
01:48:53.000You've got to watch where you're stepping, so you're constantly moving, and you've got to pay attention.
01:48:57.000At least as a healer, it's really fun.
01:48:59.000You've got to bounce around. You've got to constantly be healing everywhere.
01:49:02.000You're like, lots of attention to detail, super fast-paced.
01:49:04.000It's just the community aspect of it's been stripped because of the way they've simplified that aspect of it.
01:49:11.000All right. Conejito de la Muerte says, At the risk of making Ian explode, did you see that a white paper was released in August demonstrating a low-cost method of recycling microplastics into graphene?
01:49:24.000No, I didn't, but tag me on that on Twitter.
01:49:54.000It's flash jewel heating, which is probably what he's talking about, where you put carbon in a tube and then you hit it with 7,000 degree electricity.
01:50:01.000You pulse it at 0.1 milliseconds and then it turns into black powder graphene, which you can make cars out of.
01:50:06.000I'd like to see you racing a graphene car at some point.
01:50:08.000Lightweight and strong. All right, let's go.
01:50:10.000Corwag says, Michigan, their troll here.
01:50:12.000Whitmer has not been a good governor since 2019.
01:50:14.000Also, that video makes it look like she is jealous of Bill Clinton and his secretary.
01:50:19.000Finally, an unpopular opinion is Schneider was better even with Flint.
01:51:07.000Nothing. What did that make you believe after that?
01:51:10.000I don't know. And I asked them, like, do we report that we did this and found nothing?
01:51:14.000And they were like, well, because everybody had been reporting that there was lead and other contaminants in the water, the concern was that we did something wrong.
01:52:45.000Usually we have a crack team that takes care of everything, and usually it's something like an email got lost or whatever, or got mixed up in junk or something.
01:52:55.000So check your junk folders, and then I'll talk with my team about VCC Board Repair to make sure you get your coffee.
01:54:07.000Everything's really laid back and chill, and no one really talks about anything as far as, I guess you would say, DER. There's no enforcing anything on anybody.
01:54:19.000You just show up and You know, you run your race, and it's really something you don't notice.
01:54:24.000Now, granted, look, I'm in the Arkham Menard series, and maybe it's not prevalent there, but you don't really hear much, you know?
01:54:31.000All you really hear is, you know, like the Super Chat says, people will ask me about, like, the Bubba Wallace thing.
01:54:37.000And that's it. And you don't really hear much about anything else.
01:54:41.000Can you explain the difference between the series for me?
01:54:42.000I'm ignorant on that. Yeah, so there's the Cup series, the Xfinity series, which is basically like the one right below it, and then the Truck series, and then the Arkham Menard series.
01:54:51.000So there's their four national touring series.
01:54:55.000Basically, you get approved for full license for all of them.
01:54:58.000You can jump in and out of cars and do whatever.
01:55:01.000Basically, it's how much money you have, how much backing you have, how much experience you have.
01:55:06.000How much do you need for the big, big league?
01:55:09.000Oh, gosh. $60 million a year, probably.
01:55:11.000Whoa! And that's to be in like a midfield thing, you know?
01:58:19.000They'll be using brakes and whatnot at tracks like this where you don't.
01:58:22.000You're just full throttle almost the entire time.
01:58:24.000Just paddle the metal? Yeah, and I used to have this idea that you could really go all out for a couple laps and then reel it in, and it's not like that.
01:58:33.000You have to be all out on the edge of control, almost wrecking every single lap to be fast.
02:01:07.000This is my big follower account and I just had to restart over and over and over so I have to just continue to try to build a following on Twitter.
02:03:09.000You can find me here most nights of the week.
02:03:11.000You can also find me on Instagram at HannahClaire.B and on Twitter at HannahClaireB.
02:03:14.000Thanks for everything you guys do. Have a good night.
02:03:16.000We will see you all in the members-only show at TimCast.com if you want to hear about Seamus and I's shenanigans against these liberal woke podcasters.
02:03:23.000Our silly shenanigans. We'll see you all over at TimCast.com in a minute.
