Transcript

00:00:00.000 So we've got some interesting social media posts that have come out from Gab.
00:00:21.000 Apparently the would-be Trump assassin made several posts defending Joe Biden and attacking many prominent conservatives, which is interesting.
00:00:29.000 What kind of liberal Joe Biden supporter would be on Gab?
00:00:34.000 Only the most fervent anti-Trump, someone who's deeply involved and trying to actively promote a cause to a great degree.
00:00:43.000 Now, the CEO says they're not sure, they can confirm this, but it is basically, it seems pretty close.
00:00:49.000 They're saying law enforcement requested this under emergency disclosure, and so it seems to be the first ever definitive proof that the individual who tried to kill Trump was a Biden supporter.
00:00:59.000 Now, take it for what you will, they're also saying they can't confirm it, but at the same time saying it's definitive proof.
00:01:05.000 Perhaps it is.
00:01:06.000 We'll talk about that, and there's a bunch of other news, but it is a relatively wild news day in that the news is... It's one of those days where there's no massive stories, just a bunch of little stories.
00:01:15.000 And we got now from the media, Kamala Harris is gaining ground among Gen Z, which I plumb don't believe.
00:01:22.000 But we'll talk about that.
00:01:23.000 They keep trying to play this game where they're like, she's the meme queen, and she's brat, and it's like, yeah, okay, I don't know if I believe that.

00:03:17.000 Thanks for having me, Tim.
00:03:18.000 I appreciate it.
00:03:19.000 Absolutely.
00:03:19.000 What do you do?
00:03:19.000 Who are you?
00:03:20.000 I'm Bryland Hollihan, chairman of the RNC's Youth Advisory Council and author of the brand new book, One Generation Away, while now is the time to restore American freedom.
00:03:29.000 18 years old, and it debuted at number two on the Amazon bestsellers list, so I'd say that's a pretty good testament to the American dream right there.
00:03:34.000 And you are of the opinion, nay, the view, that Gen Z does not like Kamala Harris.
00:03:40.000 I completely am of the opinion.
00:03:41.000 As a first-time voter, I gotta say, I think she's turning more voters off than turning them on.
00:03:45.000 It's so weird that they're like, Gen Z loves her, and I'm like... Not at all.
00:03:48.000 No, we're laughing at her.
00:03:49.000 And I think she's gonna poll worse than Biden did with the youth, because again, she's the laughingstock.
00:03:52.000 Well, we'll get into it.
00:03:53.000 It should be fun.
00:03:53.000 Thanks for hanging out.
00:03:54.000 Libby's hanging out.
00:03:55.000 I'm hanging out.
00:03:56.000 I'm Libby Emmons.

00:03:59.000 I'm so happy you're here and I'm happy you're here, too.
00:04:02.000 I think it'll be a fun show.
00:04:03.000 I'm Hannah-Claire Brimlow.
00:04:04.000 I'm a writer for scnr.com.
00:04:05.000 That's Scanner News.
00:04:06.000 Follow them at TimCastNews on the internet.
00:04:08.000 Let's get started.
00:04:09.000 Here's the first story.
00:04:10.000 This is big.
00:04:11.000 Shocking social media posts of Trump shooter Thomas Crooks are revealed by social networking website CEO.
00:04:18.000 Now what's strange is the language used in that it is unconfirmed but also definitive proof.
00:04:24.000 Take that for what it is.
00:04:26.000 It seems to be based on law enforcement requests.
00:04:29.000 This is his account and posts he made.
00:04:32.000 And I think they're just trying to be careful in saying unconfirmed.
00:04:35.000 But let's give you the news and you can draw your conclusions.
00:04:38.000 And I'll stress, it is a strange headline because the Daily Mail is definitively stating these are the posts of the shooter.
00:04:47.000 They said the CEO of Gab revealed posts that he claims may have been written by Donald Trump's would-be assistant, Thomas Crooks.
00:04:53.000 And I just want to clarify, like, the games they're playing with how they're wording these things.
00:04:57.000 Torba said on Wednesday that an unnamed law enforcement agency informed him that Crooks may have posted pro-Biden messages on Gab.
00:05:03.000 The platform known for its alt-right users and conspiratorial content.
00:05:06.000 Oh, you love that, don't you?
00:05:08.000 I don't believe that's what he said.
00:05:09.000 I believe they received an emergency disclosure from a law enforcement agency, notifying them of these posts for the individual, which lead him to believe that it was definitive proof, though he could not confirm that was the case.
00:05:22.000 It's weird language.
00:05:23.000 I'm going to stress that for a millionth time.
00:05:26.000 So we have some of these posts.
00:05:28.000 They're all pro-Biden.
00:05:29.000 They say in a post from February 2021, the poster applies to an electoral projection with, didn't you also think Biden would lose in a landslide?
00:05:35.000 Yeah, I would not be very confident in your election predictions.
00:05:38.000 In another post, the Gab user defended Biden's border policies, saying they don't incentivize human trafficking and link to a study that compared crime by undocumented migrants with those of legal migrants and American citizens in Texas.
00:05:50.000 The poster wrote, Biden executive orders don't incentivize trafficking as human traffickers aren't interested in citizenship.
00:05:55.000 Likewise, the majority of illegal immigrants are not criminals, and in fact, some studies, such as the one linked below, show lower rates of crime committed by these individuals.
00:06:04.000 I think they're trying to be careful here, but I think it's a 99% that these are the posts from the guy.
00:06:09.000 I think it is obvious that this dude was anti-Trump because he tried to kill Trump.
00:06:15.000 And we're getting this argument that he was a registered Republican, and a bunch of Democrats voted Republican for Nikki Haley.
00:06:23.000 And there are Republicans who don't like Trump.
00:06:26.000 So this is a strange story, and I will stress this, especially with how the Daily Mail headlines it as though it's a definitive fact, but then goes on to insert every possible caveat imaginable.
00:06:39.000 I can understand why the Daily Mail is trying to walk the line, right?
00:06:42.000 You don't want to be the news organization that's publishing something as if it's been proven completely.
00:06:47.000 But I do appreciate that Andrew Torba and Gab are coming out and saying, like, look, this is the interaction we've had with law enforcement.
00:06:53.000 This is what they've requested from us because we get no information from the government.
00:06:57.000 I mean, they're not even putting out sort of the, like, here's the profile we have created for this person based on what they have.
00:07:02.000 They're really giving us no information, including initially they said he had no social media activity at all.
00:07:07.000 And then it was like, well, he was on that gaming website.
00:07:09.000 And also maybe it turns out he was like intentionally going on to maybe more conservative platforms to agitate in favor of Biden.
00:07:15.000 Also, even if he didn't have a social media profile, that is a social media profile in itself.
00:07:20.000 That has to be intentional at this point to not have a social media profile.
00:07:23.000 But it's true what you say, because normally these law enforcement agencies would hold press conferences every day and we would keep hearing about it.
00:07:29.000 Just think about with other shootings or the bridge collapse, you know, it's like every day they just keep updating you as to when there's going to be a briefing.
00:07:37.000 Because I try to look busy.
00:07:38.000 No, you're good.
00:07:39.000 I totally think we've had a lot bigger press conferences on more minor stories and there's been nothing.
00:07:44.000 The only things we've seen is from House Oversight Committee testimonies where they've subpoenaed them to come in person and obviously that turned in the resignation of the Secret Service Director.
00:07:51.000 Two big things I see here.
00:07:53.000 First of all, this is another example of a media cover-up.
00:07:55.000 I mean, they constantly try to tell us in the days following, oh, he was just a Republican.
00:07:58.000 He was upset with Trump's policies.
00:08:00.000 He was just a crazy guy.
00:08:01.000 And we're like, no, no, no, no, no.
00:08:02.000 This is more than just a crazy guy.
00:08:04.000 Like, obviously there was some, there's some more behind this.
00:08:06.000 And then a good point that you made, he intentionally went into a conservative safe space, made an account and put very long posts out replying.
00:08:14.000 He wasn't in his own territory.
00:08:15.000 This was intentional.
00:08:16.000 I mean, you look at those posts, there were already, these are paragraphs with like articles attached to it.
00:08:20.000 He spent time and was meticulous with us.
00:08:22.000 Yeah, that's a really good point because I didn't even read some of these.
00:08:25.000 These are in-depth analyses talking about percentages, years.
00:08:29.000 Look it, he's like, the turnout 2020 election was 66.7%, 2012 it was 55.
00:08:32.000 Now if you do blah blah blah.
00:08:34.000 This is a guy who was deeply active.
00:08:37.000 I kind of have a picture in my mind of who he was.
00:08:40.000 He's a very anti-Trump guy, lives in this media world of anti-Trump where they sell these things, and then he He wants to go into the right-wing spaces, and he's angry with these people.
00:08:52.000 He's going after them.
00:08:53.000 Didn't they say that he wanted to kill a bunch of the Trump supporters after he shot Trump?
00:08:58.000 Yeah, because they had that explosive in the car that he didn't set off.
00:09:00.000 Right.
00:09:01.000 I think they were saying that it wasn't operational.
00:09:04.000 Yeah.
00:09:05.000 That's what I just saw today.
00:09:06.000 But they were mentioning that he also had plans on just basically shooting everybody.
00:09:10.000 That's what I don't like when they say he missed.
00:09:12.000 Because he didn't.
00:09:13.000 He hit the Trump supporters that he hated.
00:09:15.000 I think these messages are his.
00:09:16.000 I think it's a fair assessment based on what Gab is saying.
00:09:19.000 And I will stress that they did also say in their emails it was definitive proof that he's a Biden supporter.
00:09:23.000 It's like, okay.
00:09:25.000 It's tough.
00:09:25.000 I don't know.
00:09:26.000 But it makes sense.
00:09:28.000 You've got a guy a few years ago.
00:09:30.000 Then he watches the news media and they say, all day, every day, Trump is Hitler, he's an existential threat, he must be stopped by any means.
00:09:35.000 And this crazy guy says, okay, what do I gotta do?
00:09:37.000 That being said, I do not believe for a moment the story of what happened in Butler, PA was literally just crazy guy did crazy thing and got lucky.
00:09:45.000 Not at all.
00:09:46.000 You think that he had people behind him?
00:09:49.000 I mean, there could be weaponized incompetence.
00:09:51.000 I don't know if it was Luke who said that, or I'm stealing credit from somebody else we had on the show, but the idea being that it takes but one person in official capacity.
00:10:02.000 Secret Service knew there was a threat.
00:10:04.000 Trump's in the holding zone, and they say, hey, do we still have that threat active?
00:10:08.000 And one person goes, nah, you're good.
00:10:10.000 But what I had heard was that Trump's team didn't know there was an active threat.
00:10:13.000 So there was a miscommunication somewhere along, like, it's very weird to me.
00:10:17.000 Did you hear the thing where, like, Jack was talking about this, how the Secret Service didn't show up for the briefing that morning, and so they weren't all on the same frequency?
00:10:23.000 I heard that too, which is insane.
00:10:24.000 That's crazy.
00:10:25.000 Come on!
00:10:25.000 How is it an accident?
00:10:27.000 The Secret Service did not show up for the morning briefing.
00:10:29.000 and so they weren't all on the same frequency and there was a whole bunch of like having to
00:10:33.000 talk to this person and talk to that person. And Cheadle didn't talk to any of the agents
00:10:36.000 on the ground the night after, like in the hours afterward.
00:10:40.000 So there is something wrong there.
00:10:41.000 And we have a whistleblower. Yes. I believe it was Josh Hawley posted it that they denied
00:10:46.000 additional technology, drones, and security. I kind of feel like somebody wanted something
00:10:52.000 to happen and there was a an effort to make it. I'll put my tinfoil hat on here and say that I
00:10:57.000 I mean, that's a pretty outlandish statement, but I think it's absolutely factual by what we've seen in the past few days.
00:11:02.000 I mean, I think that this was clearly an incompetent action, clearly a misstep, a major misstep in Secret Service regards where they have a no-fail policy
00:11:12.000 and this was a major failure.
00:11:13.000 Obviously it resulted in a resignation but I don't think we stopped there.
00:11:16.000 I think the House still needs to investigate and it needs to go further than the House.
00:11:19.000 I would expect the FBI to investigate but I don't know whose side they're on in the situation.
00:11:22.000 So it's unfortunate.
00:11:23.000 Well I hope Trump wins and then Trump's like, okay figure out who did that.
00:11:26.000 I think Mayorca should have to come before everyone too.
00:11:31.000 I mean, he is ultimately even, you know, Chito would say, the buck stops with me.
00:11:35.000 It's actually Mayorkas who has already been impeached by the House because he didn't take our national security seriously at the border.
00:11:41.000 Did you see where Ro Khanna questioned Cheadle and said, do you know what happened to the head of the Secret Service when there was an assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan?
00:11:50.000 Did he resign?
00:11:51.000 And she said, no, he didn't.
00:11:52.000 And Ro Khanna was like, yeah.
00:11:56.000 What are you doing here?
00:11:58.000 What are you doing here, Cheadle?
00:11:59.000 He's gonna be at Bitcoin conference, too.
00:12:00.000 Oh.
00:12:01.000 Yeah, I'm not a big fan of, like, I don't know if there's any Democrats I'd actually consider as good, but Rose as close as you get.
00:12:07.000 Yeah.
00:12:07.000 Yeah, so.
00:12:08.000 I mean, he's at least a thinking person, which you got to appreciate.
00:12:11.000 That's something.
00:12:11.000 That's big.
00:12:12.000 Yeah, that's rare.
00:12:14.000 I don't trust any of it.
00:12:15.000 And I think that's the problem, though.
00:12:17.000 There's so many Americans who don't trust any of these systems.
00:12:19.000 And the longer we have this lack of information, the longer it cultivates this, who do we even look to?
00:12:25.000 I mean, there is this messaging that was coming from the Biden administration saying we need to have unity.
00:12:25.000 Who do we look for?
00:12:30.000 Right.
00:12:30.000 And yet they have done nothing to try to restore any confidence.
00:12:34.000 Because you're missing what they meant by unity.
00:12:36.000 You watched Biden's speech last night.
00:12:36.000 Right.
00:12:39.000 Biden's speech last night where he said he resigned from the race.
00:12:43.000 To unite his party.
00:12:44.000 And for the younger generation.
00:12:45.000 He said to unite his party.
00:12:47.000 And then he had a whole bunch of rhetoric about, you know, I'm too old.
00:12:50.000 And so now you should bash Trump for being, you know, younger than me, but still, you know, older.
00:12:56.000 So, yeah.
00:12:57.000 But I mean, that was the thing about that.
00:12:59.000 He said that he was stepping down to unite his party.
00:13:01.000 It wasn't about democracy.
00:13:03.000 It was about Democrats.
00:13:04.000 Yeah.
00:13:04.000 What I thought was huge there is he kept using the phrase, pass the torch to the younger generation.
00:13:08.000 Pass the torch.
00:13:09.000 They ripped the torch out of his hand.
00:13:11.000 Pass the torch to anybody.
00:13:12.000 They ripped that thing and said, you're done.
00:13:14.000 And he finally gave in.
00:13:15.000 It was definitely a coup.
00:13:17.000 See the bruising on his face?
00:13:19.000 I don't know if it's actual bruising, but people are pointing out there's a dark spot on his face and around his eye.
00:13:19.000 What was that about?
00:13:24.000 Him and Obama got in a fist fight.
00:13:26.000 Or the injury was that he was on the plane and he fell and hit his face.
00:13:30.000 Oh, interesting.
00:13:31.000 And that's why they wanted to rush him to the hospital.
00:13:33.000 Maybe it was a stroke.
00:13:35.000 Maybe it was a stroke and he fell and hit his face.
00:13:37.000 It's dangerous when old fellas fall.
00:13:39.000 Or maybe somebody made him fall.
00:13:43.000 Well, just look at the comparison.
00:13:44.000 He had just done an Address to the Nation ten days before that, the 14th and the 24th.
00:13:49.000 The two comparison pictures, if you look at them, completely different, obviously, with having some injuries in the face.
00:13:55.000 So, poor guy.
00:13:56.000 Hasn't had a good few weeks.
00:13:57.000 No, he hasn't.
00:13:58.000 I mean, the real issue for me with Biden is, you know, the fact that this all could have come out months and months ago, right?
00:14:06.000 I mean, I think he's problematic for a ton of reasons.
00:14:10.000 I don't like him, but he also didn't do anything to win him any favors among Democrats.
00:14:15.000 And I think that's why you see this division with Obama, right?
00:14:18.000 There's this rumor that Obama's going to come out in support of Kamala Harris, but he's
00:14:21.000 just waiting to give Joe his moment in the sun, right?
00:14:25.000 And really, it's I think that no one wants to be affiliated with the Biden-Harris administration
00:14:30.000 because it's just been errors and missteps and intentional evils all the way along, even
00:14:36.000 for Democrats who look at this and say, why did we back you?
00:14:39.000 Why were you our last option in 2020?
00:14:41.000 Well, you'll remember this.
00:14:43.000 We were calling out Biden's, you know, mental cognitive decline when he was running in 2020.
00:14:47.000 Like four years ago, we were saying all this and they're, oh, you can't attack him.
00:14:51.000 He has a stutter.
00:14:52.000 How dare you do that?
00:14:53.000 And now they've come out only because it was bad for polling.
00:14:56.000 They don't care about Joe Biden's health.
00:14:58.000 They don't care about the future of the country.
00:15:00.000 They just care about the Democrats standing in power.
00:15:02.000 And when they saw the poll numbers, they said they had to switch it around.
00:15:04.000 That was it.
00:15:05.000 Do you guys remember in the 2016 convention, Bernie had some kind of mark on his face?
00:15:11.000 People were saying that they thought he got punched or something.
00:15:15.000 I don't know.
00:15:16.000 I just thought it was interesting as we're talking about it.
00:15:17.000 I looked it up.
00:15:18.000 But going back to your point about Joe Biden's stutter.
00:15:22.000 I was watching, uh, what was it?
00:15:24.000 Fox News pulled the clip up.
00:15:25.000 I think it was the Five.
00:15:26.000 And it showed, it was like Joe Scarborough and a bunch of people.
00:15:29.000 And then when they're like, and then Joe said, a young boy with a stutter made it.
00:15:32.000 It's like, oh, I was welling up.
00:15:35.000 And then Whoopi Goldberg was like- Stutter's a lie!
00:15:37.000 Yeah, there's no stutter!
00:15:38.000 What are you talking about?
00:15:38.000 Like, I never had a stutter!
00:15:39.000 No!
00:15:41.000 I mean look back at the 70s when he was running for his first term in Senate after his whole family got killed or like in the 80s or at any time or when he was out there.
00:15:49.000 Did he have a stutter when he was 5 or 6?
00:15:51.000 Or did he have a stutter when he was criticizing Clarence Thomas?
00:15:56.000 No, he did not.
00:15:57.000 And there's a difference between a stutter and a brain freeze and completely just not being able to have conversations with people, remember names, read off the teleprompter.
00:16:04.000 Finish sentences, complete thoughts.
00:16:05.000 That's not a stutter.
00:16:06.000 Maybe, you know where he got the bruise, you guys?
00:16:09.000 It was when he was fighting Medicare.
00:16:11.000 That's true.
00:16:11.000 One of us pulled that off.
00:16:13.000 Yeah.
00:16:13.000 That's good.
00:16:14.000 No, I like that it's like, remember his stutter as another reason that you probably shouldn't criticize his speech, right?
00:16:19.000 At one point, his doctor had released this medical report, which they always tried to, like, draw any attention to, and they'd be like, well, he has a raspier voice now, but it's not an issue.
00:16:28.000 He's had a cold for a month and a half.
00:16:29.000 For his whole life, apparently.
00:16:31.000 So if you watch this... Can we look at his eyes?
00:16:34.000 He's not looking at a teleprompter.
00:16:35.000 Oh, no, for sure.
00:16:36.000 The teleprompter is, like, up on the mantle, apparently.
00:16:38.000 No, we covered this at Postmillennial last night, and I wrote this, and my first sentence was, you know, looking somewhere above him at the teleprompter.
00:16:45.000 His advance team is horrible.
00:16:47.000 They're like, where's the teleprompter?
00:16:48.000 Well, they don't care.
00:16:49.000 He's an afterthought.
00:16:50.000 They gave him the ice cream social, they shuffled him off to bed.
00:16:53.000 Look at his left chin right here.
00:16:55.000 Wow.
00:16:56.000 Yeah, there's a... Right.
00:16:58.000 Yeah, I agree.
00:16:59.000 That's actually really crazy.
00:17:00.000 Wow.
00:17:00.000 Yeah, and other people mentioned there's something around his left eye, but I'm not sure I see it.
00:17:04.000 The chin, you can see for sure.
00:17:07.000 And that's not COVID.
00:17:08.000 They probably put makeup on it, too.
00:17:10.000 Right.
00:17:10.000 So that's probably, like, coming through.
00:17:13.000 Yeah, I don't know, man.
00:17:15.000 We can conspiracy theorize two things.
00:17:19.000 He fell and hit his face, or he got hit in the face.
00:17:22.000 Look, he said Saturday to Sunday morning, somewhere in there is when he changed his mind.
00:17:26.000 I mean, who knows what happened?
00:17:29.000 What I find fascinating, too, is that we're going to go into this Joe Biden lame duck period, right?
00:17:34.000 Because he says he's not resigning.
00:17:36.000 I mean, if you look at his ex account today, it's like basically all platitudes.
00:17:40.000 It's like the worst Hallmark card of all time where he's like pretending to be doing something.
00:17:45.000 It's super weird.
00:17:46.000 I mean, I don't think anybody knows what to do.
00:17:49.000 And it's sort of the collapse of, you know, what at one point they think they would have
00:17:53.000 tried to carry off as a triumphant political legacy.
00:17:55.000 Yes.
00:17:56.000 Well, two things I think are funny there.
00:17:58.000 No, go for it.
00:17:59.000 One of them is you say the little hallmark sayings he keeps saying.
00:18:02.000 Notice that they're just putting the text, because the videos are so bad.
00:18:05.000 Some of them he messed up when he wrote off the teleprompter, so they couldn't put the actual video footage.
00:18:08.000 They're just putting the text of the speech on Twitter, because nobody's going to catch him on that.
00:18:12.000 The second thing, you talked about this lame duck period, and we were talking about this earlier off camera, but we started seeing that today.
00:18:16.000 Like, Netanyahu was the first world leader to come after Biden's dropped out.
00:18:19.000 They had separate meetings, like, three hours apart, because Kamala's like, I don't want to be in the same room with him.
00:18:23.000 Like, get me away from Biden.
00:18:24.000 Plus, she had to go talk to the sorority.
00:18:26.000 Oh, yes.
00:18:27.000 That's super.
00:18:27.000 Oh, yeah.
00:18:28.000 Why?
00:18:29.000 Vice presidents are never this involved.
00:18:31.000 No, not until today.
00:18:33.000 But they're trying to set her up to be a takeover.
00:18:35.000 She's the president.
00:18:36.000 Yeah.
00:18:37.000 They're trying to install her as president without anyone really noticing so that they just can push her into the election spot.
00:18:45.000 Hear me out.
00:18:46.000 Biden has called her the president, I think like eight times.
00:18:48.000 He has.
00:18:48.000 And he's called Trump his vice president.
00:18:50.000 That's right.
00:18:51.000 Maybe Kamala's taking over as President and Trump's VP.
00:18:53.000 We don't know what's happening.
00:18:54.000 That would be like in the old days when your opposition becomes the Vice President.
00:18:57.000 What about that?
00:18:58.000 That's crazy.
00:18:59.000 Wow.
00:19:00.000 That's how it used to be.
00:19:00.000 I think that was actually a good idea.
00:19:02.000 I think it was a good idea too.
00:19:04.000 That's how we ended up with George Washington and John Adams.
00:19:06.000 First place is President, second place is Vice President.
00:19:09.000 I agree.
00:19:09.000 I think that is a solid idea.
00:19:11.000 Well then picture Trump as Biden's VP for the past four years.
00:19:14.000 We would have had better standing.
00:19:14.000 We would have gotten things done.
00:19:18.000 Yeah, it gives a broader swath of the American people more representation.
00:19:20.000 Let's pull this up real quick and just add this while we can.
00:19:22.000 Josh Hawley says, So hold on.
00:19:22.000 Yeah, it gives a broader swath of the American people more representation.
00:19:27.000 Let's pull this up real quick and just add this while we can.
00:19:29.000 Josh Hawley says, a whistleblower tells me local law enforcement partners and suppliers
00:19:33.000 offer drones to Secret Service before the rally, but Secret Service declined.
00:19:37.000 So hold on.
00:19:38.000 You were saying this a moment ago that they didn't show up to the briefing.
00:19:41.000 That's what we were saying.
00:19:44.000 That's right.
00:19:45.000 That's what Jack was saying based on the Ron Johnson report in his interview, which was
00:19:48.000 killer.
00:19:49.000 I don't know if you guys thought it sounds like they were in on it.
00:19:52.000 I mean Marjorie Taylor Greene was saying she wants a criminal investigation.
00:19:55.000 I think...
00:19:56.000 There's probably a lot of Republicans, Marjorie Taylor Greene, you know, I wonder what Josh Hawley's thinking, and they're thinking... They were in on it.
00:20:04.000 Someone was in on it.
00:20:05.000 It's not just some dumb kid who slipped past the entirety of Secret Service, flew a drone over, had had a rangefinder, none of that makes sense.
00:20:11.000 You know what this reminds me of?
00:20:13.000 That January day at the Capitol a few years back when they requested assistance and assistance didn't come, this is the exact same thing and it's a cover-up again.
00:20:21.000 And another example, Sunday of Convention Week in Milwaukee, I know for a fact because my friends were in the meeting, there was a three-hour volunteer meeting for all of the different Hill staffers, GOP staffers, RNC, you know, convention staffers.
00:20:34.000 They had to come in and have a three-hour meeting with Secret Service about how to understand the different color credentials for the week, to know that this color gets you to the green room, this color can get you this far.
00:20:43.000 If there was a three-hour intern meeting, a briefing, why was Secret Service not at the briefing the day before that could have, you know, prevented the life of the person that was, you know, brutally murdered?
00:20:53.000 I mean, yeah, if they stopped that guy three hours before and said, hey, you can't come in, he'd be alive.
00:20:57.000 Exactly.
00:20:57.000 It is amazing to me because they're shifting—I mean, immediately they were shifting blame to local law enforcement.
00:21:02.000 Robert Chito was like, well, we secure all kinds of stuff, except for that building, local law enforcement was in charge of.
00:21:07.000 Like, this has been sort of the narrative, and it's hard not to be like, why are you positioning yourself as being like, this local Pennsylvania township police force failed, when actually you're also saying you're in charge of everything, and this is kind of unprecedented way for the Secret Service to behave.
00:21:24.000 Let's pull up this story.
00:21:25.000 We've got this from Sky.com.
00:21:28.000 Donald Trump could have been hit by shrapnel during assassination attempt, FBI director says.
00:21:34.000 That's ridiculous.
00:21:36.000 It's absolutely ridiculous.
00:21:38.000 You can look at the damage to his ears in two points, indicating it likely was a... I mean, sure, they're arguing the shrapnel went forward and then through.
00:21:47.000 Shrapnel from what?
00:21:48.000 From what?
00:21:49.000 From what?
00:21:49.000 The teleprompters were intact.
00:21:51.000 This is Christopher Wray.
00:21:54.000 Pushing Democrat talking points so that you can diminish, and I guarantee you right now, there are a bunch of Democrats going around saying, he wasn't shot, something bounced up and hit him, so they can undermine the idea that someone nearly killed him and that he took a bullet for America.
00:22:10.000 Joy Reid has been saying that, a bunch of the fringier Democrat pundits have been saying that, and of course what they've been trying to do this whole week is just push Kamala Harris into the spotlight, make her seem like she's definitely the heir apparent.
00:22:24.000 I gotta say, Democrats have done a really good job controlling this news cycle, and it's been hard to, like, get other interesting stories out there.
00:22:31.000 You know, Trump had a great rally the other day.
00:22:33.000 The one was in North Carolina.
00:22:36.000 That was terrific.
00:22:37.000 You know, they're really trying to screw with J.D.
00:22:40.000 Vance.
00:22:41.000 Well, I mostly blame Republicans.
00:22:43.000 Republicans need to stop following the news cycle of the New York Times.
00:22:47.000 And every so often, Republicans will set the news cycle.
00:22:51.000 All that matters is they talk amongst themselves over what matters most.
00:22:55.000 But the news cycle says Kamala, and then all of a sudden tons of pundits stop talking about the Trump assassination attempt.
00:23:02.000 Yeah, I definitely understand why there is a need to cover Kamala now, but I think it's obviously being pushed too heavily because they're trying to make something happen really fast.
00:23:12.000 There's a need to fact check her.
00:23:13.000 There's a need to call out her lies.
00:23:15.000 I mean, it is news.
00:23:16.000 It's just not the only thing going on.
00:23:18.000 And again, that's why I think they are trying to quickly Drum up enthusiasm for her because I think if they don't get enough support, if they can't really convince people in the first, I would say 10 days, but let's go with two weeks, then you will see some Democrat come out and challenge her.
00:23:33.000 I mean, what's his name?
00:23:34.000 Golden from Maine came out today and said he doesn't plan to vote for her.
00:23:36.000 Well, they're trying to tie up all the delegates before the convention in that virtual roll call thing, which wouldn't that make it?
00:23:43.000 Isn't it amazing how this is all going according to plan for them?
00:23:46.000 It's exactly what they wanted to do.
00:23:48.000 They stuck to the script, yeah.
00:23:49.000 How many months ago were we talking about, hey, Joe Biden's not in the ballot in Ohio, this makes no sense?
00:23:54.000 Why would they do that?
00:23:55.000 Oh, well, because of the convention timing.
00:23:58.000 It's like they did that on purpose.
00:23:59.000 So they announced they were going to do a virtual nomination that was just a formality so that they could get through in Ohio, and then they would nominate Biden.
00:24:07.000 And all of the stories that we're talking about how Kamala Harris was going to have this happen, it says, you know, the DNC said this was planned since May.
00:24:14.000 all of the stories that we're talking about how Kamala Harris was going to have this happen.
00:24:18.000 It says, you know, the DNC said this was planned since May.
00:24:21.000 No, it wasn't.
00:24:23.000 It wasn't planned since I mean, or it was.
00:24:26.000 One or the other is true, and both of them are really bad.
00:24:29.000 They are.
00:24:29.000 And remember, this is the party of democracy.
00:24:31.000 Right.
00:24:32.000 This is the pro-democracy—they're going to save democracy by ignoring the voters from the primary.
00:24:37.000 You guys saw Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer the other day giggling like little schoolgirls, you know, who just killed their best friend in the woods.
00:24:46.000 Super excited about how Kamala Harris is— What is that analogy?
00:24:50.000 Have you heard about that?
00:24:52.000 To the Slenderman thing?
00:24:53.000 Oh, I know, but it's just you're describing them.
00:24:57.000 Every time there's a group of teens who kill their best friend in the woods, which happens.
00:25:03.000 There's a case that was out in Morgantown, West Virginia, too, very similar.
00:25:06.000 But the Slenderman one, they were like best friends.
00:25:08.000 And they're happy.
00:25:09.000 They like lured a girl out because they were nuts.
00:25:11.000 There's a girl, there's another one in uh, in Morgantown, West Virginia.
00:25:14.000 It's a really sad case.
00:25:14.000 What are these girls doing?
00:25:15.000 Look, they're doing exactly what Jeffrey said she had to be careful about.
00:25:19.000 Which is lying, making stuff up, and trying to push themselves into power.
00:25:22.000 And they said that Kamala Harris, that she earned it.
00:25:26.000 The process has played out that it was grassroots support and it's so clearly a top-down, authoritarian, totalitarian, fascistic undertaking to install this woman as president without any people voting for her ever.
00:25:41.000 She's had zero votes.
00:25:42.000 She couldn't even get votes in the primary in 2020.
00:25:46.000 She had 3% of the vote before she dropped out because she had no support.
00:25:50.000 All of her staff was saying that she was confusing and kept changing her policy positions, and
00:25:54.000 nobody liked her.
00:25:56.000 This woman is untested, she's unvetted, and she has absolutely no business being in this
00:26:00.000 position, but they're just going to keep lying and saying that she should be there.
00:26:04.000 I have never been so full of hate.
00:26:07.000 For Kamala Harris?
00:26:08.000 I woke up this morning.
00:26:09.000 And the entire Democrat party.
00:26:10.000 Yeah, because Joe Biden I dislike, but people voted for him in a primary.
00:26:14.000 And I'm like, I don't trust the primary process, but people advocated for it.
00:26:18.000 They advocated for the voting for him.
00:26:20.000 And then he wins the primary through their ridiculous superdelegate process.
00:26:23.000 Now I'm sitting here being like, we know they steal it.
00:26:26.000 We know they manipulate.
00:26:28.000 But now they're just coming out and outright appointing someone who no one voted for.
00:26:32.000 And then, Lord help me, you've got these liberal pundits being like, yay, democracy!
00:26:38.000 And I'm just like, I have never been so full of hate in my life.
00:26:41.000 It is so infuriating.
00:26:43.000 And the other thing, too, that I've noticed is you have the situation, too, where it's very hard to break through to the mainstream media, to the legacy press.
00:26:54.000 They have this all so wrapped up.
00:26:56.000 And you saw this, too, at the RNC when you had Um, in the FICER forum, you had all of the big legacy press.
00:27:04.000 You had CNN and NBC and ABC and everyone doing their broadcasting from there.
00:27:08.000 And Fox was there and Newsmax was there.
00:27:10.000 But these were the guys who could pay the big money to have the big, you know, big news programs there.
00:27:15.000 And then all of the good media was relegated to the Panther arena.
00:27:20.000 And that was the good stuff.
00:27:21.000 That was the stuff that should be streaming this.
00:27:23.000 And I understand that the RNC has to make money or whatever, but like, Like, put the Daily Wire in the FISERV.
00:27:30.000 Put TimCast in the FISERV.
00:27:32.000 Put Human Events Daily in the FISERV.
00:27:34.000 War Room.
00:27:34.000 Put it in the FISERV.
00:27:35.000 That's where these people should be.
00:27:37.000 That's where these pundits should be.
00:27:38.000 Like, why is Charlie Kirk broadcasting from outside?
00:27:41.000 He should be broadcasting live from the RNC.
00:27:44.000 They should have had one AP pool camera pointing at everything.
00:27:47.000 That's all you need.
00:27:48.000 That's it?
00:27:48.000 And then you give the actual press and podcasts and personalities the real space inside.
00:27:53.000 The real space inside.
00:27:54.000 Because that's who the people of the RNC, that's who the delegates watch.
00:27:58.000 And that's how you get, that's how you break through this legacy media bubble.
00:28:02.000 So you ended up with a situation where all of these people, you know, who like, on CNN, who believe that they are the voice of the people, they believe that they are the real press, they were able to maintain their bubble.
00:28:15.000 And they had no business maintaining that bubble.
00:28:18.000 It should have been popped!
00:28:19.000 And now we're out here, they're installing Kamala Harris, we can't break through it, and they didn't help us!
00:28:24.000 You know what I mean?
00:28:26.000 So I was actually asked this when we went to the RNC.
00:28:29.000 They were like, some of our guests found out we weren't actually in the secure perimeter, we were outside.
00:28:34.000 Because there's no way, well it's impossible, we're doing a live audience, right?
00:28:38.000 So we couldn't do that show.
00:28:40.000 And then the other issue was getting enough passes for everybody.
00:28:44.000 I don't know how we got passes, but shout out to whoever got us passes, because I did have them.
00:28:47.000 Oh, I helped Nancy get you guys passes.
00:28:50.000 Okay, well, thank you very much, because they were just like, Tim, your passes are here.
00:28:52.000 I was like, they are?
00:28:53.000 Because we weren't planning on going, like, actually inside the perimeter.
00:28:56.000 Yeah.
00:28:57.000 We were going to be there for the ancillary, uh, the, the outside events.
00:29:00.000 There's everything going on all over the place.
00:29:02.000 But, uh, when I was there, I got asked multiple times by many of the people, where inside is the show going to be?
00:29:08.000 And I said, we're not.
00:29:08.000 And they were like, you, Wait, you're not?
00:29:11.000 They were like, didn't the RNC bring you guys out to do a show here?
00:29:15.000 And I was like, no.
00:29:16.000 People actually thought that the RNC gave us space and said we want TimCast IRL at the RNC.
00:29:21.000 It makes a lot of sense.
00:29:22.000 I was like, no, of course not.
00:29:23.000 And then you look at the, you know...
00:29:25.000 Viewers the view count of these alternative media, and it's you know breaking through CNN and MSNBC Yeah, and then also our party's constantly like oh, we need to embrace you know alternative media.
00:29:35.000 Let's modernize Let's do that, and then you have the opportunity for like the biggest week, and you don't do that And it was really fascinating, like, to be there at the RNC.
00:29:45.000 I had never been to a political convention before, you know, and it was really so interesting.
00:29:50.000 And I thought, why, when I turn on the TV, are the main players the same people who have been lying to us for the whole rest of the year?
00:29:58.000 The DNC is going to be nuts.
00:30:00.000 We saw those riots in DC.
00:30:02.000 We have a reporter heading out to cover the protests.
00:30:06.000 We can't get into the convention, but... Was it Biden with Netanyahu earlier?
00:30:11.000 When he said something like, from one proud Zionist to another or something like that?
00:30:15.000 I can't remember.
00:30:16.000 He said something like that, right?
00:30:17.000 He said something like an Irish Zionist or something like that.
00:30:22.000 That's really great.
00:30:24.000 Yay IRA.
00:30:25.000 But then you've got Kamala, who came out and said that she was raising money for Israel as a little girl.
00:30:30.000 Do you think these far leftists are going to sit by and be like, no that's fine?
00:30:33.000 Tim, I remember what she was raising money for and it was the bail to get those people out that were previously protesting.
00:30:37.000 And I saw some people who were going to go throw firebombs at the exact same people.
00:30:41.000 And some of those people are killers.
00:30:43.000 They are, that's what I was going to say.
00:30:44.000 I saw that yesterday.
00:30:46.000 I didn't realize, you know that tweet that we keep pulling up where she was doing the bell?
00:30:49.000 That link still works.
00:30:50.000 A reporter yesterday did a test thing for $10 just to see, and it still works.
00:30:55.000 Of course it still works.
00:30:55.000 That's crazy.
00:30:56.000 No, that's been up.
00:30:56.000 We were reporting on that at the Post Millennial in 2020.
00:30:59.000 Andy Ngo was all over that, and we were shocked then.
00:31:02.000 And it's still, she still stands behind it.
00:31:05.000 That's crazy.
00:31:06.000 Out of all the things people have scrubbed from their Twitter, she is standing by that.
00:31:09.000 Why should she scrub it?
00:31:10.000 I mean, she needs the far left.
00:31:12.000 Oh, yes.
00:31:12.000 I'm trying to look for confirmation of this right now, but if I'm not wrong, her stepdaughter has pushed a lot of pro-Palestine fundraisers.
00:31:18.000 So there's a level of, like, Kamala Harris is about to try and be on every side of every issue.
00:31:23.000 How old is this stepdaughter?
00:31:24.000 She's in her early 20s, I think.
00:31:26.000 Because, like, they push this whole thing that she's the stepmom and she's the mama and everything.
00:31:30.000 She got married 10 years ago.
00:31:33.000 Yeah, I think both of her kids are in there.
00:31:35.000 Or like, her stepkids are in there.
00:31:36.000 Yeah, I mean, so she was around, what, during their teen years for a little bit?
00:31:39.000 Mamala?
00:31:40.000 Yeah, and she will bring up these narratives.
00:31:41.000 She got married when she was 49.
00:31:42.000 And before that, what was she doing?
00:31:44.000 Like, sleeping her way into California politics?
00:31:46.000 Well, look, she's a feminist.
00:31:47.000 She's trying to make her life work.
00:31:49.000 No, but the thing is, Kamala Harris is about to try to be on every side of a lot of issues, right?
00:31:54.000 Like, she was touring abortion clinics, but she's gonna come out and say, well, I'm for women, and they're bad.
00:31:59.000 She's gonna say, oh, well, I'm the tough-on-crime prosecutor, and I can tell Donald Trump what to do.
00:32:04.000 Here you go, Black Lives Matter rioters.
00:32:06.000 I mean, it's just going to be everything.
00:32:07.000 It's like the Obama thing, where he kept telling every group exactly what they wanted to hear, and every group believed him.
00:32:14.000 That was great.
00:32:15.000 I remember the anti-war people, and I was talking to my anti-war theater friends, and they were like, no, he's anti-war, and I was like, but he just said that he wants to boost troops in Afghanistan.
00:32:26.000 He's pro-gay marriage.
00:32:27.000 No, he isn't, you guys!
00:32:28.000 He's just a liar!
00:32:30.000 But I don't think people believe Kamala Harris the same way they believe Barack Obama.
00:32:33.000 Did you see that they're saying Kamala is the most liberal member of Congress or the Senate?
00:32:39.000 Yeah, from that GovTrack thing.
00:32:40.000 Yeah, but this has been a talking point for a long time, and it's technically true, but you need to understand the context.
00:32:46.000 It's that she doesn't engage in any deal-making, so all of the bills she signs onto... That's great for a possible future president.
00:32:52.000 Absolutely.
00:32:53.000 No deal-making.
00:32:54.000 Bernie Sanders is the furthest left politician we probably have, other than AOC maybe.
00:32:58.000 Well, actually he used to be, but now he's like number four.
00:33:02.000 But the reason they don't say he's the most liberal is because he negotiates with conservatives and you'll find him on bills that are slightly moderate because he says to them, I'll vote for you if you vote for me.
00:33:11.000 Kamala does not do that.
00:33:12.000 Wow.
00:33:12.000 But did you see that she was interviewed?
00:33:15.000 And she was asked about this.
00:33:16.000 You're called the most liberal... I'm watching and I'm like, she's Dr. Hibbert.
00:33:20.000 She's Dr. Hibbert from The Simpsons.
00:33:22.000 They go, uh... You with the laugh?
00:33:24.000 Right.
00:33:25.000 He says, you've been criticized as the most liberal member of Congress.
00:33:28.000 And this had appeared on a website.
00:33:30.000 And she goes...
00:33:31.000 I'm like, why are you laughing?
00:33:34.000 You want four years of that?
00:33:35.000 Come on, people.
00:33:36.000 Heaven help me.
00:33:37.000 Why don't you just give her a Venn diagram of her liberal policies, right?
00:33:42.000 With a yellow school bus.
00:33:43.000 This is an interesting question I have for you, Brylon.
00:33:47.000 Because Simpson certainly still does exist, but do you understand the Dr. Hibbert reference?
00:33:51.000 I don't, no.
00:33:52.000 Dr. Herbert, because I don't know if he's still on the show anymore because the show's so old, but he laughs inappropriately.
00:33:58.000 Oh, okay.
00:33:58.000 And so this is in the 90s.
00:34:00.000 Yeah, he walks in and he's like, you've got cancer!
00:34:03.000 That's Kamala Harris.
00:34:04.000 Oh, it is.
00:34:05.000 Yeah, you ask her a simple question like, what's your tax policy?
00:34:10.000 It exists within the context of what it should exist in.
00:34:13.000 Yeah, why are you laughing, lady?
00:34:14.000 I think that is a direct quote.
00:34:16.000 That's a direct quote, yeah.
00:34:17.000 That's her famous one.
00:34:17.000 It's so unfortunate.
00:34:18.000 It should exist in the context of what it should exist in.
00:34:20.000 It does.
00:34:21.000 Hey, I just found this article about the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which is the group that she obviously was supporting with the bail money.
00:34:27.000 Here are just a few examples.
00:34:28.000 I won't read them all.
00:34:29.000 In April of 2022, a guy named Shawn Michael Tillman was released thanks to the Minnesota Freedom Fund.
00:34:37.000 One month later, he shot a man six times.
00:34:39.000 That's right.
00:34:40.000 Wow.
00:34:40.000 Thanks, Kamala.
00:34:41.000 George Howard was in jail for domestic assault in August 2021.
00:34:45.000 In August 2021, he was bailed out by the Minnesota Freedom Fund.
00:34:48.000 18 days later, he shot and killed a man in a fit of road rage.
00:34:52.000 One more, Christopher Boswell, twice convicted rapist, he got out thanks to the Minnesota Freedom Fund that Kamala Harris is still raising money for as a city vice president.
00:35:01.000 He promptly strangled another woman the same day and said he would do something to her.
00:35:05.000 I just, I kind of feel like Conservatives want to sit on their porch in a rocking chair, sipping on some lemonade while their kids, you know, play in the grass with a soccer ball or something.
00:35:17.000 And then they want to, you know, just get the work done, come home, see their family.
00:35:22.000 And it feels like liberals just want to party and have things paid for for them.
00:35:28.000 Look, man, there's way too many millennial liberal types who are like, I don't want work.
00:35:34.000 And there's way too many conservatives who are like, ah, well, another good hard day of work.
00:35:38.000 I'm just like, it's becoming this polarized.
00:35:40.000 Oh, it is.
00:35:41.000 What a stark contrast, too.
00:35:42.000 I mean, that's like the generation that's coming up and they're like expecting that of like, oh, I'm just gonna sit there and everything's to be paid for me.
00:35:47.000 They're gonna bribe my vote every time I vote for whoever cancels my student debt or pays for my housing.
00:35:51.000 But you're a part of this generation, right?
00:35:52.000 I mean, is this how you feel?
00:35:53.000 Because I have the perception that it's divided.
00:35:55.000 Let's pull this story up first before we get into that.
00:35:57.000 We've got this from Axios.
00:36:00.000 Exclusive poll!
00:36:01.000 Oh, we trust Axios.
00:36:02.000 Harris opens up early edge with young voters.
00:36:05.000 Take a look at this.
00:36:06.000 If the 2024 election were held today, who would you vote for if the candidates were Biden or Trump?
00:36:10.000 53% for Biden.
00:36:12.000 If the elections were held today, who would you vote for if the candidates were Kamala Harris-Trump?
00:36:15.000 And Kamala's got 60%.
00:36:16.000 Okay, now...
00:36:20.000 You're a young, conservative man.
00:36:22.000 I don't think that you represent all of Gen Z. But, what are you seeing?
00:36:27.000 Well, I don't represent all of Gen Z, but I've been fortunate enough to talk to a lot of Gen Z. And I've constantly seen both sides of the aisle, people are frustrated.
00:36:35.000 Regardless of if you're even like, okay, I'm abnormal and, you know.
00:36:38.000 My age.
00:36:39.000 Most 18-year-olds aren't politically interested or involved, but even ones that aren't interested or involved, they're affected by this.
00:36:44.000 Like, I'll say last week in Milwaukee, every single Uber driver I had was a college student taking a second or third job to make ends meet.
00:36:50.000 Oh, really?
00:36:51.000 And a lot of them were like, oh, like, I disagree with the MAGA hat you have on, but like, the economy was better with him.
00:36:56.000 And I was like, it was, right?
00:36:58.000 Like, it definitely was.
00:36:58.000 You didn't have to have two jobs.
00:37:00.000 Exactly.
00:37:00.000 Yeah, which is so sad.
00:37:01.000 So I think that this is BS and I absolutely think that this is something that we're
00:37:06.000 seeing come back against.
00:37:08.000 So for you, is it like, you know, 2019 was a hot year, 2020 was pretty bad.
00:37:12.000 So you're young.
00:37:13.000 Sure.
00:37:14.000 And I have to imagine, like with your family, you're going out to eat more, you're going
00:37:19.000 to the movies more.
00:37:20.000 When you were getting older, now into the Biden administration, were you noticing these
00:37:24.000 things with your family where your parents are like, we can't afford to do it, we got
00:37:27.000 to tighten our belts?
00:37:28.000 Well, then I'm going into college, you know, after this next school year, you remember
00:37:32.000 graduating from high school, you know, renting your first apartment, like becoming financially
00:37:36.000 independent, actually going into the age of like, attempting to, you know, go on road
00:37:41.000 Just go out and eat dinner with your friends.
00:37:42.000 Like, very simple things that you should be able to do as a freedom-loving American, and you can't do because, I mean, and again, it's constantly the news that the economy's bad, and it's hard enough for my parents and grandparents' generation.
00:37:53.000 Picture how difficult it is for my generation getting a start in this economy.
00:37:56.000 Well, you know, if it makes you feel better, millennials had the 2008 crash.
00:38:00.000 There you go.
00:38:02.000 So, I was 20 as we went into that.
00:38:05.000 That's true, when I finished grad school, and I was like, oh goody.
00:38:08.000 I tried to get a job as a dishwasher and I could not because good luck finding a job.
00:38:14.000 Everybody needed one.
00:38:15.000 The people who are slightly older got laid off from their jobs.
00:38:17.000 So they started dipping lower and lower into lower tier jobs.
00:38:20.000 And then I'm like, but I played guitar on the subway.
00:38:22.000 I made it work.
00:38:23.000 And then Millennials got to experience a second.
00:38:25.000 And fortunately, Gen Z got to experience their first.
00:38:28.000 Yes.
00:38:28.000 Although I think Gen Z was actually around for the first one too, just not experience it in the same way.
00:38:32.000 Their parents experienced it.
00:38:32.000 I was two, so.
00:38:33.000 I mean, that's how I feel about the 2008 crash because I was in middle school at the time.
00:38:36.000 And I think there were a lot of like, Yeah, I had, I think, four part-time jobs.
00:38:39.000 in the household, even if you're not super engaged, you're at an age where you're becoming aware
00:38:44.000 and you know that ultimately these are consequences that will affect your family.
00:38:47.000 I mean, I know a lot of people whose parents couldn't help them pay for college
00:38:51.000 because of the 2008 class, or they had to move from where they lived
00:38:55.000 because they had to sell their house because they couldn't afford anymore.
00:38:57.000 I mean, people remember the effects of challenging economic times,
00:39:01.000 even if they themselves are not part of the tax base yet.
00:39:03.000 Yeah, I had, I think, four part-time jobs.
00:39:06.000 Wow.
00:39:07.000 And that was like how I was doing stuff, and I was doing my art and stuff.
00:39:11.000 Well, here's a non-economy example.
00:39:13.000 I mean, I know the numbers on the screen, and this is Axios again, like Tim said, we can't really trust him.
00:39:18.000 These are some people telling us that, you know, Kamala's not really the Borders are, but the numbers on the screen actually are better for Trump than 16 and 20.
00:39:26.000 And I think a big part of that is my generation, you said you're in middle school for, you know, recessions and stuff.
00:39:30.000 I was in middle school when COVID hit.
00:39:32.000 And that really radicalized my generation to being like, wow, big government is bad.
00:39:36.000 Like, COVID was big government at its worst.
00:39:39.000 Big government during COVID shut me out of school for a year and a half, told me I was an evil, horrible human being if I went and visited grandma for Thanksgiving dinner, that I had to strap a diaper to my face anytime I walked outside.
00:39:47.000 I could pull it up to eat, you know, but that was fine.
00:39:49.000 We really was like, oh wait, hold on.
00:39:52.000 This is kind of crazy.
00:39:53.000 And I remember None of this makes sense.
00:39:55.000 I'm from Alabama, the majority of my class is conservative, but I had people during then were on Zoom chats and stuff for class and they're like, this is a little crazy that I can't go to church, but the strip club down the street is open.
00:40:08.000 And these are people that their parents voted for Biden.
00:40:11.000 At that point, they'd be voting for Biden, and this would go around, and they're like, whoa, wait, why do we want big government?
00:40:15.000 I'm like, exactly.
00:40:16.000 Small government's great.
00:40:17.000 And so I think the polling is better because of that.
00:40:19.000 I think COVID helped us by radicalizing it.
00:40:21.000 But I think you're going to have to pony up and admit it.
00:40:24.000 Kamala Harris is memeing with Gen Z, and Gen Z is with it.
00:40:28.000 They take one look at that face, and they're like, that's cool.
00:40:31.000 Let's say this isn't Kamala, this is some staffer, some intern that's in their sophomore year of college somewhere that just found out what Brad is.
00:40:39.000 Kamala doesn't even know she probably has a TikTok account, she has no idea.
00:40:42.000 I will say this, and I've told Trump this to his face, he is the ultimate influencer.
00:40:47.000 He got started in politics from influencing through Twitter in 2015 when nobody, no politician was using Twitter.
00:40:54.000 There were sleaze and press releases and stuff like that.
00:40:56.000 And he was like, I'm going to try this.
00:40:57.000 And it worked.
00:40:58.000 And so him and I had a conversation a few months ago.
00:41:00.000 He was waving his hand to the air.
00:41:02.000 He's like, Ryland, what can we do to win Gen Z?
00:41:05.000 And I said, Mr. President, it's simple.
00:41:06.000 Like go to mainstream social media platforms.
00:41:08.000 True Social is great, but my generation is not on True Social.
00:41:10.000 You're talking to an echo chamber.
00:41:11.000 You have to go to places where young people are.
00:41:14.000 And so he rejoined Instagram a week or two after that and since then he's on TikTok.
00:41:17.000 He has the fastest growing TikTok account in TikTok history.
00:41:19.000 I promise you, we can revisit this next week.
00:41:22.000 Kamala Harris will not beat his numbers because it's young people who are like, wait, he's authentic.
00:41:26.000 Like when Biden started his TikTok, you remember this, he pulled up the screen.
00:41:29.000 He's like, good morning, Gen Z. Pause.
00:41:31.000 I'm so happy to be on your For You page.
00:41:33.000 Pause.
00:41:34.000 And Trump's on there and he's like, he's a selfie video of Logan Paul.
00:41:36.000 He's like, hey guys, what's up?
00:41:38.000 Glad to be on TikTok.
00:41:39.000 Vote for me.
00:41:39.000 Like, it's just authentic.
00:41:40.000 Well, and he's making, like, YouTube content.
00:41:42.000 Like, he was doing that golf video the other day.
00:41:44.000 I mean, there is an element of, like, he is just being himself and it's working, whereas I feel like you're in a better position to comment on this than I am, but I feel like this is Gen Z or maybe very, very young, like, tail end of millennial staffers trying to cram Kamala Harris in front of youth voters the only way they think they can and trying to make her relevant.
00:42:04.000 Like, you have all seen videos where people teach their, like, 98-year-old grandma's current day slang, right?
00:42:09.000 And they'll say it and, like, She says cap and you're sort of like, that's so weird and awkward.
00:42:13.000 It's kind of funny.
00:42:13.000 Like, it's not authentic.
00:42:15.000 In fact, they're just kind of laughing at her because she seems almost out of place.
00:42:18.000 It's only been a few days since she obviously is top of the ticket now, but just in these short amount of days, what I've constantly heard from young people is, and this is both sides of the aisle, is we're tired of chaos.
00:42:28.000 And we've constantly seen chaos with the left.
00:42:30.000 We saw chaos with them.
00:42:31.000 They didn't have a nominee till like two days ago.
00:42:32.000 They still don't have a VP nominee.
00:42:33.000 We're the party of stability.
00:42:35.000 And it's very easy to say, listen, and this election is unique.
00:42:38.000 Typically, you have two untested people coming, you know, running for office, and you don't know what a term of either one of them would look like.
00:42:45.000 You know exactly what a Donald Trump administration would look like, and you know exactly what a Kamala Harris administration would look like.
00:42:49.000 So it's very easy to sit down with an 18-year-old who's, you know, in high school like me and say, listen, do you want stability or do you want chaos?
00:42:55.000 Clearly, Kamala's the chaos president.
00:42:58.000 They're trying to Obama Kamala, and you can't.
00:43:03.000 They're trying to Obama Kamala.
00:43:05.000 No, Obama has got charisma.
00:43:07.000 Obama knows how to stand on a stage.
00:43:10.000 Let's compare Obama to Ron DeSantis in terms of charisma.
00:43:14.000 And with all due respect to Ron, who's done some good things with his career.
00:43:17.000 We talked about this when Ron was announcing his candidacy.
00:43:20.000 He's on X Space going, I'm here to lead the great American comeback.
00:43:24.000 The smile was the worst.
00:43:26.000 I'm like, wow.
00:43:27.000 Barack Obama's on stage in front of thousands of people in Chicago with a scowl and he's like, we are going to lead America to freedom!
00:43:37.000 Just something like that.
00:43:37.000 Everyone's screaming and cheering and he's shaking his fist.
00:43:40.000 That guy knows how to rally a crowd.
00:43:42.000 Sure.
00:43:42.000 And so I can understand back in the day.
00:43:45.000 I remember when he was running, he was the celebrity candidate.
00:43:47.000 He was the cool guy.
00:43:49.000 And they played that up, and it did work with young people.
00:43:52.000 Not that, like, young people turn out in massive numbers anyway, but it did work to a greater degree than usual.
00:43:57.000 You can't do that with Kamala.
00:43:59.000 She is a cackling fiend.
00:44:01.000 That's what she is.
00:44:01.000 What is she gonna say?
00:44:02.000 Like, you fell out of a coconut tree!
00:44:04.000 Like, what's her thing gonna be?
00:44:05.000 It's not- Yes, it can.
00:44:07.000 It's that!
00:44:07.000 That's what it is!
00:44:08.000 I mean, that's all it is.
00:44:09.000 Play day.
00:44:10.000 Yeah, it's crazy.
00:44:11.000 It doesn't make sense.
00:44:12.000 What did Poe do us?
00:44:14.000 Is that what Jill Biden said?
00:44:15.000 Pwot us?
00:44:16.000 Yeah, Pwodway.
00:44:17.000 Remember, Jill Biden said, see, say, Pwodway or whatever.
00:44:22.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yes.
00:44:23.000 Yeah.
00:44:24.000 Oh, we should stop trying to make politicians that don't speak Spanish at all speak Spanish.
00:44:28.000 I know it's a crazy concept.
00:44:30.000 I know I'm being radical here, but I just feel like everyone would appreciate it.
00:44:34.000 I think Kamala is struggling with this image, right?
00:44:37.000 That's why it is rapidly evolving.
00:44:39.000 Like, they're trying to make her both memeable and this prosecutor who's going to take on Trump.
00:44:43.000 And then she's going to, you know, pivot to being, I don't know, a TikTok date.
00:44:46.000 Like, it doesn't make any sense.
00:44:48.000 They took the video down!
00:44:50.000 They took it down?
00:44:52.000 Of course they did.
00:44:53.000 Yeah, of course, of course.
00:44:54.000 They can't let you do that.
00:44:56.000 Somebody said this earlier, don't you think Kamala would be a really great daytime talk show host?
00:45:01.000 She could sit there, well she could laugh and talk, but she can't run.
00:45:05.000 I don't know what part of me is like, she could sit in the Oval Office or the Situation Room and be like, we're going to make this decision.
00:45:10.000 She's going to be like, That's hilarious.
00:45:11.000 No, I don't think so.
00:45:12.000 Because if she was a daytime talk show host, she'd be sitting down next to a guy and he'd be like, I have cancer.
00:45:17.000 And she'd go.
00:45:19.000 The best thing that happened for Kamala Harris's image during the 2020 campaign was that Maya Rudolph played her on SNL and actually made her sort of funny and not charming, but like made her into almost a likable character, like bizarre.
00:45:31.000 You don't relate to her, but there was something there.
00:45:34.000 The real Kamala does not even hold a candle to that.
00:45:36.000 And that's a bad sign for a campaign that's now trying to rapidly throw this together.
00:45:42.000 You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?
00:45:49.000 You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you.
00:45:56.000 This is really bad.
00:46:00.000 This is pretty bad.
00:46:01.000 Like, I don't know.
00:46:02.000 They've made better ones of Biden and stuff.
00:46:05.000 This video is made for me, my generation, and no part of that was like, I'm voting for her.
00:46:09.000 I'm like, get her away from me.
00:46:11.000 I mean the hard thing though is that you you apparently like died in the little conservative over there so we need we need to ask the the democrats and independents.
00:46:17.000 I would love Harry Sisson's take.
00:46:18.000 Yeah I know he's bought and paid but yeah he's okay.
00:46:21.000 I'm sorry you want to see funny?
00:46:23.000 I'll show you this.
00:46:24.000 I've been on my own for long enough maybe you can show me how to love me You know, there was a whole channel on YouTube of Trump singing pop songs like this.
00:46:40.000 And they would do them for Obama, too.
00:46:41.000 I mean, they were funny.
00:46:42.000 Right.
00:46:43.000 Oh, what's a good Obama song?
00:46:45.000 He did Call Me Maybe.
00:46:46.000 That was the first one I ever saw.
00:46:47.000 And it was just so funny.
00:46:50.000 The other thing is, and you talked about this, Trump was an original influencer.
00:46:54.000 He made stuff happen.
00:46:55.000 50 million views.
00:46:57.000 I'm sorry, just let me, yeah, look, here you go.
00:46:57.000 I'm sorry.
00:46:59.000 Love you, Ken.
00:47:01.000 I love you back.
00:47:04.000 Wish in the well. Don't ask me, I'll never tell.
00:47:09.000 I looked to you as it fell, and now you're in my way.
00:47:12.000 I trade my soul.
00:47:13.000 That's not even that good, and it's got 15 million views.
00:47:16.000 I mean, that was early day stuff.
00:47:18.000 The Trump singing Blinding Lights is, like, it's actually really good.
00:47:23.000 Let me, let me, here we go.
00:47:25.000 I'm blinded by the lights.
00:47:29.000 So, yeah.
00:47:41.000 That was three years ago?
00:47:43.000 No, this is not the original video.
00:47:45.000 This is someone reposting it.
00:47:46.000 I was gonna say, this art form has evolved over the years.
00:47:48.000 Yeah, it's Miss... what's the guy's name?
00:47:52.000 I gotta get his name to give him credit.
00:47:56.000 He put it in the video.
00:47:56.000 Where is it?
00:47:58.000 Maestro Zekos.
00:48:03.000 I think Trump has an influence on culture that Kamala Harris couldn't, right?
00:48:08.000 She just doesn't have it.
00:48:09.000 If she did, she would have done better in the primary.
00:48:11.000 Someone would have discovered her by now.
00:48:13.000 It's not like she has been in the public eye for a long time.
00:48:16.000 And I think this is something that I really credit Gen Z for.
00:48:19.000 I think they can sniff out frauds, right?
00:48:22.000 She does seem like a real fraud.
00:48:23.000 You can't make them like people.
00:48:24.000 Yeah, she does seem super fake.
00:48:26.000 And yeah, if she had any draw, She would have drawn it by now.
00:48:31.000 She already ran for president and it didn't go well.
00:48:35.000 And she actually got shuffled, in my opinion, she got shuffled right to the back of the Biden administration in early days.
00:48:41.000 I love this one though.
00:48:42.000 This is Ryan James Gerduski.
00:48:43.000 He says, this is how Democrats think about their fellow Americans and how they select a vice president.
00:48:48.000 Quote, let's just face it, there's a lot of sexist, racist white dudes out there in America
00:48:52.000 who don't like Trump, but just need a little extra validation, one person familiar with
00:48:57.000 the campaign's thinking, told NBC News, and bringing one of the people mentioned onto
00:49:02.000 the ticket helps validate her among those constituents.
00:49:04.000 What a wild thing.
00:49:05.000 Apparently her entire BP shortlist is just white guys.
00:49:08.000 But it's also, it's also a random person we don't know, they've not quoted anybody, and
00:49:12.000 this person is psychic and understands what Kamala's campaign is thinking.
00:49:16.000 I'm sorry, dude, I'm not interested in whatever that is.
00:49:19.000 But they've normalized that whole one person familiar one somewhere.
00:49:23.000 Which is crazy.
00:49:24.000 Anonymous.
00:49:28.000 Look, what they do is, they will say something like, A source close to Donald Trump's office said he was planning on kicking a dog, and that source close to his office is the homeless guy who's in the alley close to the building.
00:49:41.000 And they're like, but we're telling the truth.
00:49:42.000 Who has a dog?
00:49:43.000 The homeless guy has a dog, and he's kicking it.
00:49:46.000 Well, I'm just saying, like, they use these manipulative phrases.
00:49:50.000 One person familiar with the campaign's thinking.
00:49:53.000 I'm familiar with the campaign's thinking, and I think Kamala wants to kick a dog.
00:49:57.000 I think probably.
00:49:57.000 Kamala already did kick a dog.
00:50:01.000 To your point about the 2020 primaries, I think you're absolutely right.
00:50:04.000 I don't know if you remember, it was down to Biden and Bernie, and remember that last CNN?
00:50:09.000 He forced him out!
00:50:10.000 They did, they forced him out.
00:50:11.000 It wasn't Kamala on the stage.
00:50:12.000 She had been going well, but remember Tulsi got her to leave after that, you know, After she destroyed, yeah, Tulsi Gabbard destroyed Kamala
00:50:19.000 Harris.
00:50:19.000 Yes, and then to your point about the influencers and Trump understanding that,
00:50:23.000 he really, like it's not something we have to convince him.
00:50:25.000 It was like, we were talking about the convention, the idea that I
00:50:28.000 pitched last year when Ronald McDaniel was still in charge and didn't get anywhere
00:50:31.000 and then Watley actually took it on and we did it because Trump
00:50:34.000 actually let us do it.
00:50:35.000 He let us spearhead it. We flew up 100 influencers to the convention last week
00:50:39.000 and they had a suite on the top floor and they got to sit and cover the convention.
00:50:42.000 Had hundreds of millions of views. Trump let us do that.
00:50:44.000 That's something in the past R&T was like, ah, you know, we're not gonna go there. We're
00:50:48.000 not gonna touch that.
00:50:49.000 Was that like the creators hub thing?
00:50:50.000 I was doing that too.
00:50:52.000 I didn't see it in there.
00:50:54.000 It was really cool for him to get in.
00:50:55.000 Again, it was an immediate eye pitch to Watley.
00:50:57.000 Watley was like, let me check with Trump soon.
00:50:59.000 That was your idea?
00:51:00.000 It was mine, yeah.
00:51:00.000 Very clever, Ryland.
00:51:01.000 He called back maybe 30 minutes later.
00:51:04.000 Trump loves it.
00:51:04.000 How quick can we get it?
00:51:06.000 I got invited to apply for credentials for the Creator thing, and my friends in press did not have Floor access, but I did have floor access.
00:51:15.000 You get to go down for your 30 minutes?
00:51:16.000 Yeah.
00:51:17.000 And it was very cool.
00:51:19.000 Did you go up to the suite too?
00:51:21.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:51:23.000 I did some work up there.
00:51:24.000 He's like making sure you had a good time.
00:51:25.000 Customer service over here.
00:51:28.000 I'll send you a survey later.
00:51:30.000 We're doing it again in four years.
00:51:32.000 When I met Trump for the first time at Mar-a-Lago.
00:51:35.000 Yeah, it was Bruceowitz who introduced me to him.
00:51:37.000 Oh yeah.
00:51:37.000 And then he was like, Bruce was like, Tim's got one of the biggest channels on YouTube.
00:51:41.000 And then immediately Trump goes, you know who the biggest influencer in the world is?
00:51:45.000 And I went, Joe Rogue.
00:51:46.000 And then he was like, me!
00:51:47.000 That's what they say.
00:51:48.000 They say it's me.
00:51:48.000 And I was like, you know, you're right.
00:51:50.000 And I was like, Oh, that's a good impression.
00:51:52.000 Did you do it?
00:51:53.000 To him?
00:51:54.000 No.
00:51:54.000 But I was like, actually, yeah, he's, he's probably right.
00:51:57.000 He posts one thing and the entire media apparatus is just like on it.
00:52:02.000 Right, it's like pigeons in Central Park when you throw out half a stale bagel, you know, and they go nuts!
00:52:07.000 I was with Sarah Sanders last week, one day around lunch, and we were talking, just kind of reminiscing the White House days, and she was like, yeah, I never had to send out these press releases.
00:52:14.000 You know, they have to speak on Biden's behalf.
00:52:16.000 She was like, Trump would do the talking and I would just go defend him.
00:52:19.000 You know, he would just tweet it.
00:52:20.000 That was the news for the day.
00:52:21.000 Immediately, he would sit there and watch the Kylian trains, you know, sipping a Diet Coke.
00:52:25.000 So, also for the impressions, the amount of times that I've seen people walk up to him and do an impression in front of him is, wow, they have so much courage to do that.
00:52:32.000 And he always loves it.
00:52:33.000 You know how he is, but you need to do it next time.
00:52:35.000 No, I wouldn't do that.
00:52:37.000 Let's check out this story.
00:52:38.000 As we're talking about how could Kamala Harris possibly win from SCNR, nearly two-thirds of voters believe cheating will occur in the 2024 election.
00:52:48.000 More than a quarter admit they would consider engaging in illegal voting to help their preferred presidential candidate.
00:52:54.000 Okay, I mean, that's the news, right?
00:52:56.000 What would you call it?
00:52:58.000 If a quarter of the nation is openly saying that they will or want to cheat to win power, is that just the way things are?
00:53:07.000 It's in a sad set of fairs.
00:53:08.000 That's criminal actions there.
00:53:09.000 And also two-thirds, they'll say that Republicans believe this quote-unquote brainwashed lie, but two-thirds is well more than just Republicans that think that we don't have fair and free elections.
00:53:20.000 The party of democracy really needs to step up on securing this election here.
00:53:24.000 I mean, come on.
00:53:25.000 Well, the Democrats make this claim.
00:53:26.000 It's the weirdest thing, too.
00:53:28.000 Like, when I'm talking to, like, a liberal family member, and they say, yeah, well, Republicans are just trying to stop people from voting.
00:53:32.000 And I go, who?
00:53:34.000 And they're just like, well, they're trying to get people off the voter rolls.
00:53:36.000 And I was like, dead people?
00:53:38.000 What are you talking about?
00:53:39.000 Who are they getting off the voter rolls?
00:53:40.000 Well, they go through and they remove names.
00:53:41.000 And I'm like, can't you just go and register to vote?
00:53:45.000 Like, shouldn't you just check your registration periodically?
00:53:47.000 Let me say this.
00:53:48.000 They try to say it's difficult to vote.
00:53:50.000 I turned 18 two and a half weeks ago and I registered on my 18th birthday.
00:53:52.000 I timed it.
00:53:53.000 A minute and 42 seconds.
00:53:55.000 Yeah, it's not hard to do.
00:53:57.000 And also, there was just one box to check if I was a US citizen.
00:54:00.000 No proof that I was a US citizen.
00:54:02.000 They didn't ask for birth certificate or anything.
00:54:03.000 I literally checked the box.
00:54:05.000 So that needs to be addressed.
00:54:07.000 But also, a minute and 42 seconds.
00:54:08.000 They're always like, oh, it's so difficult.
00:54:10.000 They're trying to make it so hard.
00:54:11.000 No.
00:54:12.000 It wasn't hard when I registered in, whatever it was, 1993.
00:54:15.000 They registered for me.
00:54:16.000 And then I got jury duty!
00:54:17.000 Oh, wow.
00:54:18.000 Yeah, when I got my ID, it just registered me.
00:54:20.000 I guess it's like on the form or something?
00:54:21.000 It's like when you're getting your license, it's like, and you're registered now?
00:54:23.000 Yeah, you can register at the DMV in a lot of states.
00:54:25.000 Don't you guys have to register for the Selective Service, too?
00:54:27.000 Oh, yeah.
00:54:28.000 I do that, too.
00:54:28.000 It's the whole form.
00:54:29.000 Which, again, this is a cool story.
00:54:31.000 I was back home for a night or two, and it was around my birthday.
00:54:34.000 I had a birthday party.
00:54:35.000 I was sitting there registering to vote, and one of my friends had turned 18 around the same time.
00:54:39.000 And you could tell the wheels were turning in his head.
00:54:41.000 He goes, wait.
00:54:42.000 I have to do selective service, too, right?
00:54:43.000 And this is a guy that is not the biggest Trump supporter, I'll just say that.
00:54:47.000 And I was like, yeah, yeah, you actually have to, like, I'll send you the link, like, it's pretty simple, blah, blah, blah.
00:54:50.000 And he goes, I could actually serve on the front lines.
00:54:53.000 I was like, I mean, that's what that means.
00:54:55.000 He was like, no, no, no, like, Biden, like, if anybody were to send me the front lines, it would be him.
00:54:59.000 And I was like, you have a good point.
00:55:00.000 So again, this is somebody that his whole life is football.
00:55:03.000 He plays Fortnite every night.
00:55:05.000 I love that recognition.
00:55:06.000 But it clicked, I didn't have to tell him.
00:55:07.000 Like, I'm the war guy!
00:55:08.000 And he was like, he's the war guy.
00:55:09.000 Yeah, but, come on, like, deep down we're all excited to see Harry Sisson on the front line.
00:55:15.000 He would be doing amazing propaganda.
00:55:17.000 Maybe that was part of his agreement.
00:55:18.000 Maybe it was if he tweets this entire time they put him, you know... People of privilege sometimes get to go to do special positions.
00:55:24.000 It's gonna be Tom Cruise in Edge of Tomorrow.
00:55:27.000 He's gonna be like, look, I'm just an Instagram guy.
00:55:30.000 And they're like, that's why we need you on the front line.
00:55:32.000 We need you on the front line to sell this war to the American people because they trust you.
00:55:36.000 And he's gonna be like, oh crap.
00:55:39.000 Well, I'm sure he'd be happy to serve under President Kamala Harris.
00:55:43.000 He's a huge fan, I've heard.
00:55:44.000 It took him seven minutes to endorse her, to turn his back on Biden.
00:55:48.000 Seven minutes.
00:55:48.000 He put out one post and was like, Biden's the defender of democracy.
00:55:52.000 And then the next post, he was like, all hail Kamala Harris.
00:55:54.000 Seven minutes.
00:55:55.000 So the check hit very fast from the Kamala Harris president campaign.
00:55:58.000 What a grifter.
00:55:59.000 Really?
00:56:01.000 I have to just believe that Gen Z doesn't care at all.
00:56:06.000 You know, of course there's a handful of people.
00:56:07.000 You're here, obviously.
00:56:08.000 You wrote a book, even, and you seem to know a lot about what's going on.
00:56:11.000 You're very active, but most Gen Z is probably just like, huh?
00:56:15.000 You know, I agree with you to an extent, but I would say this.
00:56:18.000 Unfortunately, we're being forced to care.
00:56:19.000 Like, we're being thrown into this thing of we're trying to stay apolitical and we're trying to stay away from it, and it keeps hitting us, whether it's the pocketbooks or like in life or realizing like, hey, next year I could be, you know, serving on the front lines of war.
00:56:30.000 It's really forcing us to say, Even if you don't support either side, at least pay attention.
00:56:36.000 And I think we're seeing that.
00:56:36.000 That's why we're seeing so many young people register to vote, which is going to be a major shift this time.
00:56:40.000 Like, 53% of registered voters as of last week are Gen Z or Millennials.
00:56:45.000 And unregistered voters skew Trump, Republican.
00:56:49.000 Yes, big time.
00:56:50.000 I was just going to say, when I was 18, the only things I cared about were art and parties.
00:56:54.000 No, I was voting.
00:56:55.000 I voted for, like, in the, whatever it was.
00:56:58.000 I voted for Obama.
00:57:01.000 I voted for Bill Clinton.
00:57:03.000 I wasn't old enough to vote for Bill Clinton, but I remember when I was little, they had us do a mock poll of like when I was in grade school.
00:57:09.000 And it's really about, they're doing the poll to see what your parents influencing on you.
00:57:14.000 But I remember, I think, I don't know how old I was, I must have been 20.
00:57:17.000 I voted for Obama.
00:57:18.000 And I was like, well, I hope he ends the wars.
00:57:20.000 You know, beep.
00:57:21.000 And then as soon as he gets elected, he's like, I'm gonna go blow up kids.
00:57:24.000 And I was like, ah, crap.
00:57:26.000 I remember being totally committed to be like, my first vote's going to be for a libertarian president.
00:57:30.000 That was not the case.
00:57:32.000 The thing is, I think you're touching on something that's really important, which is like, young people are kind of forced to pay attention.
00:57:40.000 In part, I think because our media has realized how fear-mongering people and scaring them about politics all the time, keeping that like, anxious attention is working for their bottom line.
00:57:50.000 But I also think that like, This is a different culture.
00:57:53.000 I think our culture is much more politically oriented than generations past, to our detriment.
00:57:58.000 Like, Libby is saying when she was young she was focused on art and parties, but that's kind of cool, right?
00:58:02.000 It's normal, yeah.
00:58:02.000 You were supposed to have life outside.
00:58:04.000 I mean, maybe not you.
00:58:05.000 You've picked a path.
00:58:06.000 But, like, it is good to have institutions of culture that people are passionate about, that they want to pour into, so we have a vibrant culture in this country.
00:58:14.000 If it has to be constantly fighting over, like, please don't send me to war, please let me, you know, If you want to be able to have a secure financial future, then of course you have to kind of fall in line on these party politics, at least in the American system as is.
00:58:24.000 My friend shouldn't have to be stressing about serving on the front lines next year instead of going off to college, which is just a crazy concept to fret over.
00:58:31.000 To your point about the mock elections, that was actually what got me interested in politics.
00:58:35.000 So the clip that I love, and I know it's one of your favorites, is when Trump and Hillary were debating, I was 11, and I happened to be walking through the living room at the same time when he said the line, well, you'd be in jail.
00:58:47.000 And I was like, oh, I love this!
00:58:48.000 Like, this guy is not reading the consultant, like, memos.
00:58:50.000 Like, this is real.
00:58:51.000 This is genuine.
00:58:52.000 Like, he's authentic.
00:58:53.000 And so I started paying attention.
00:58:54.000 And I was SGA president of our lower school at the time, and we held a mock election in the library.
00:58:58.000 And, like, Trump won wide margins against Alabama, who shocked.
00:59:01.000 But I was like, this is so cool.
00:59:03.000 Like, they're, like, actually casting their vote.
00:59:05.000 And so somehow that turned into this.
00:59:07.000 But again, it's just young people paying attention.
00:59:09.000 And it was a clip.
00:59:10.000 I mean, that was a 15-second clip of Trump, but it brought me into a seven-year career.
00:59:14.000 Wow.
00:59:15.000 Now, nobody trusts the election, and the expectation is just that it's going to be a bunch of cheaters cheating.
00:59:20.000 So, I don't... I mean, and we've been saying this for three years.
00:59:23.000 We've been saying this since January 6th.
00:59:25.000 What will happen after this election?
00:59:27.000 Why would the Democrats or the Republicans accept the results?
00:59:30.000 And, assuming they don't, then what happens afterwards?
00:59:33.000 Great question that nobody's talking about because everybody's too afraid to.
00:59:36.000 Well, it's not just that.
00:59:37.000 It's like, does anybody know?
00:59:38.000 Nobody knows.
00:59:38.000 We have no idea.
00:59:39.000 Well, it depends on, I guess, in part, what the leaders do, right?
00:59:44.000 Well, we don't know who our leader is right now.
00:59:46.000 I mean, Kamala Harris, if she's the one who Loses out or whatever.
00:59:51.000 She's the same one who said that the protesters should not stop and the rioting should not stop in 2020.
00:59:56.000 She said that on late night TV.
00:59:58.000 Trump has been looking incredibly presidential.
01:00:03.000 I mean in a way that he didn't even in 2020.
01:00:06.000 He's maintained his calm.
01:00:07.000 He's very cool and collected.
01:00:09.000 It's been sort of impressive to watch that.
01:00:11.000 So it kind of depends I think.
01:00:14.000 Yeah.
01:00:15.000 I have no idea.
01:00:17.000 It's really hard to say and I think that's one of the things that I feel weary about with speculating because you don't want anyone to start to panic too early.
01:00:25.000 You don't want to panic too early?
01:00:28.000 There's plenty of time for panic, don't worry about it.
01:00:30.000 Don't forget your towel.
01:00:34.000 I really think that the DNC is in a certain amount of chaos, and I think that the next couple weeks leading up to this roll call will be fascinating.
01:00:40.000 I suspect they'll be able to install Kamala Harris, but I don't think it will do them any favors with their party, with their members in Congress or anything else.
01:00:47.000 BLM doesn't like it.
01:00:48.000 Which is so interesting to me.
01:00:50.000 That's so fascinating.
01:00:51.000 In the past couple of weeks, I agreed once with Taylor Lorenz and once with BLM.
01:00:55.000 The world is over!
01:00:56.000 Was it the Blue Anon article she wrote?
01:00:58.000 I think so, yeah.
01:00:59.000 No, but I mean, look what's going to happen to the DNC.
01:01:00.000 The far left is going to lose it and they're going to try and storm the gates and they're going to attack the DNC.
01:01:05.000 To your point about the protest earlier and Kamala's quote, you know, back in that election, our leader, our nominee got shot in the head and we didn't have a single protest.
01:01:14.000 Like, not a single one.
01:01:15.000 And they tell us that we're gonna go riot and blow things up and we're just like... He literally got shot in the head.
01:01:22.000 Let's have our attention and a proper nominating process.
01:01:25.000 And then yesterday in D.C.
01:01:26.000 they rioted, stole a flag and torched it and destroyed it.
01:01:29.000 On government property.
01:01:30.000 Didn't they raise Palestinian flags?
01:01:33.000 In our nation's capital?
01:01:34.000 And where's our police?
01:01:37.000 Defunded.
01:01:38.000 They were just hanging out.
01:01:40.000 There were a bunch of, you know, the centrist Democrats, let's say, who joined to vote against or vote in favor of this resolution to condemn Biden-Harris for the border crisis.
01:01:50.000 I mean, I think you're starting to see a fracturing in a way that they are not prepared to handle.
01:01:55.000 Yes, there was an immediate coalesce around Kamala Harris, but long term, the party is forever damaged by, you know, I would say the entire Biden administration, but definitely since January when he was like, I'm definitely running and everything's fine.
01:02:07.000 It's a cult, man.
01:02:09.000 Let me tell you this.
01:02:10.000 You had a primary.
01:02:11.000 Ron DeSantis supporters were ripping apart Trump supporters.
01:02:15.000 Haley supporters were ripping apart DeSantis and Trump supporters.
01:02:17.000 Vivek Ramaswamy had people who were very amicable and liked Donald Trump but were hoping that Vivek could get in.
01:02:22.000 You had DeSantis supporters on X saying, F you Trump supporters, I will never vote for this man.
01:02:28.000 And then a few weeks later being like, you've won, I admit it, I'm gonna have to vote for this guy and I don't want to.
01:02:33.000 And they're like, haha, he's in a cult.
01:02:35.000 And I'm like, the dude hates Trump.
01:02:37.000 Yeah.
01:02:38.000 You're a cult, and you are marching in locks up on authoritarians who have now put in Kamala Harris without a single person voting for her, and this guy's like, well, I don't like Trump, but at least people voted for him, and you're like, he's an occult.
01:02:51.000 This is what we're up against right now in this country in our election.
01:02:55.000 Colt behavior was that 12-hour period where every single Democrat somehow got behind her that
01:03:00.000 quickly. So fast. And then started making stuff up about how she was the grassroots candidate.
01:03:06.000 Just crazy. She's been grassroots for six hours. I thought it was crazy when she was like,
01:03:10.000 well, the process has played out, sir, it has been maybe 48 hours. This is your process.
01:03:15.000 And that's the thing, too. It's like people are saying, you know, Obama hasn't endorsed Kamala.
01:03:19.000 all Obama has to do is endorse the process.
01:03:22.000 Oh yeah.
01:03:22.000 Let's pull this up from the New York Post.
01:03:24.000 Badly understaffed Park Police assaulted by mob of thousands pelted with poop at pro-Hamas riot in D.C.
01:03:33.000 Union Chief.
01:03:34.000 Vote for Kamala if you want people throwing poop at cops.
01:03:38.000 That is horrifyingly disgusting.
01:03:40.000 What about E. coli?
01:03:43.000 I mean, it's so fun that this battle between foreign nations is playing out on American soil.
01:03:48.000 Really love that for us.
01:03:51.000 This is what the left does.
01:03:53.000 Meanwhile, they're saying that there's one video I watched where a guy's like, you know, what do you think happens if Trump wins?
01:04:00.000 Or do you want Trump to win?
01:04:00.000 The lady's like, well, if Biden wins, the Proud Boys are going to come out and start shooting people.
01:04:05.000 And he's like, the Proud Boys?
01:04:06.000 And she's like, yeah.
01:04:07.000 And he's like, do you think that all of these people are Proud Boys?
01:04:09.000 Like, no, but they'll come out.
01:04:11.000 The left is doing it right now.
01:04:12.000 They've been doing it for years.
01:04:13.000 There's not a proud boy in sight.
01:04:15.000 There's not.
01:04:15.000 I talked to Tommy Tuberville yesterday, who's my Alabama U.S.
01:04:18.000 Senator, former football coach, and his Capitol office faces the direction of Union Station, and they texted me a picture of the Palestinian flags being raised, and you can see it from Capitol Hill.
01:04:29.000 Sitting in the U.S.
01:04:30.000 Capitol as a sitting non-existent Senator, watching the Palestinian flags being raised, and they could do nothing about it.
01:04:35.000 That's so sad.
01:04:36.000 But it's not an act of terror.
01:04:37.000 It's not.
01:04:38.000 No, not at all.
01:04:38.000 But I mean, in Congress itself, what was it, last year or the year before, you had Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris raising the Ukrainian flag in Congress.
01:04:46.000 But we're not occupied.
01:04:48.000 We're not a hostile takeover.
01:04:49.000 Don't question anything, Libby.
01:04:50.000 Did you see how Zelensky was like, oh, I'd be very happy to work with Trump.
01:04:54.000 I know.
01:04:54.000 And we should probably look for some peace.
01:04:56.000 Yeah, let's do that.
01:04:57.000 He's for sure, he says now.
01:04:59.000 Real quick.
01:05:00.000 And Netanyahu's going to go down and meet with Trump.
01:05:02.000 I mean, we've also had world leaders from across the world already lining up to meet with Trump.
01:05:06.000 I mean, I know Viktor Orban met with him.
01:05:08.000 The Polish president?
01:05:09.000 Right, like they're looking at it.
01:05:10.000 There is clearly someone who the world is like, maybe you guys should put him in because things seem to be not great for you the way it is.
01:05:16.000 We do need actual grown-ups in charge instead of ones who are letting their brains drip out their ears.
01:05:21.000 Well, picture from Netanyahu's perspective.
01:05:22.000 I don't know how far the trip is from Israel, but it's quite a long trip.
01:05:25.000 Made it all the way here.
01:05:26.000 He gets here, and he landed yesterday morning.
01:05:28.000 Nobody greeted him at the airport.
01:05:30.000 Nobody greeted him at Joint Base Andrews.
01:05:31.000 Not Kamala, not Biden.
01:05:32.000 Neither wanted to be seen.
01:05:33.000 Biden was in the basement somewhere.
01:05:34.000 He didn't even send the Maryland guy who's retiring to go in the chair.
01:05:37.000 Nothing at all.
01:05:38.000 No, he gets here and they asked in a press conference yesterday, oh, what are your plans while you're here?
01:05:43.000 And then he said, you know, we'll see.
01:05:45.000 We're going to go speak to Congress or that type of thing.
01:05:47.000 Are you meeting with President Biden?
01:05:48.000 We're waiting to hear back from his team.
01:05:50.000 You flew all the way across the country and the leader of the alleged leader of the free world won't even give you a yes or no on if you're meeting or not.
01:05:57.000 Well, they're terrified.
01:05:58.000 I mean, Biden and Kamala are both terrified of the far left.
01:06:02.000 They are.
01:06:02.000 That's why you have, like, that's why what's going to sort of be interesting this fall leading up to the election is Kamala is going to be outspoken against Israel and Biden's going to be like, we back Israel.
01:06:12.000 I don't, I don't know.
01:06:13.000 You don't think so?
01:06:13.000 No, today she was saying that she raised money for Israel as a child.
01:06:17.000 She also was backing Gaza, though.
01:06:18.000 She said, we hear you, we'll listen to you.
01:06:21.000 She's going to follow the Biden legacy of trying to be on every side of this issue and failing miserably.
01:06:25.000 I mean, that's really what this is.
01:06:27.000 I mean, you know, they put her husband in charge of the White House anti-Semitism task force.
01:06:31.000 Her stepdaughter is raising money.
01:06:33.000 He was talking to donors the other day on some kind of Zoom call.
01:06:36.000 This is why they hate social media.
01:06:39.000 They used to be able to show up to a rally in, let's say they go to New York, and there's a bunch of people, and Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton, let's hit the 90s, Bill Clinton will be like, you know, we're gonna have no more war!
01:06:50.000 And they go, yeah, I'm gonna bring all our troops out of the Middle East!
01:06:52.000 Desert Storm was a bad idea!
01:06:53.000 I don't know what year that was, I don't know, but you get the point.
01:06:56.000 They're gonna say, we're not gonna have these wars, and then people are gonna be like, yay!
01:07:00.000 Then he's gonna march down to a district that's mostly funded by military contractors, and they say, we're gonna make sure we defend America's interests overseas, and not abandon our men.
01:07:08.000 Nowadays you can't do it.
01:07:09.000 Remember Kamala constantly changed her accent a while back?
01:07:12.000 When she went down to Louisiana she had a southern accent.
01:07:14.000 She's still doing it.
01:07:14.000 She still does that.
01:07:15.000 That's going to be her on policy positions now.
01:07:17.000 They're just going to call it code switching.
01:07:20.000 AOC did it?
01:07:21.000 Yeah.
01:07:22.000 And if you complain about it you're racist.
01:07:24.000 Yes, yeah.
01:07:25.000 Code-switching.
01:07:25.000 Code-switching.
01:07:26.000 Yeah, you remember code-switching?
01:07:29.000 It was a whole thing when microaggressions started being a thing that was the new kind of racism.
01:07:36.000 So code-switching was the thing that people of color do when they're around their own people of color, and they talk like each other, and then they code-switch when they're around white people, because those nasty white people, you can't just be yourself around the nasty white people.
01:07:53.000 Everyone does it in Chicago.
01:07:54.000 Everyone does it everywhere.
01:07:55.000 Yeah.
01:07:56.000 Like, do you talk the same way with your family when you get home at the end of the day as you do to, like, your colleagues?
01:08:01.000 No, at work you talk like this and then you get home and you're like, oh my god, it was terrible at work today, blah, whatever.
01:08:06.000 Blah, whatever.
01:08:09.000 But everybody does it.
01:08:10.000 You talk one way with your friends and another way with your siblings and then some other way with, you know.
01:08:15.000 Yada, yada, yada.
01:08:16.000 Blah, blah, blah.
01:08:17.000 Yeah.
01:08:17.000 There's an NPR podcast called Code Switching or something.
01:08:25.000 I think a lot of the problems we see culturally are due to uppity wealthy liberals who have been isolated from society and are just now discovering very basic things most of America already knows, but because they're arrogant and racist they think they're supreme and superior and need to assert this over everyone else.
01:08:41.000 You know, Biden hit on that point.
01:08:42.000 I don't know if you remember, right after the debate, when he was kind of in hiding for a few days, and he finally came out on Morning Joe and did that supposed to be a recovery interview, but actually made it worse.
01:08:50.000 Remember, that was when he was flipping the pages next to the microphone, like you're reading a script.
01:08:54.000 He was in the interview, and he said, the D.C.
01:08:56.000 elites are trying to take me out.
01:08:58.000 Joe Biden has been in D.C.
01:08:59.000 for 51 years.
01:09:01.000 He is a DC elite.
01:09:02.000 He's that old white guy in the room.
01:09:03.000 All his friends turned on him.
01:09:04.000 Yeah, they are.
01:09:04.000 Which really shows you.
01:09:05.000 It's the Julius Caesar thing.
01:09:06.000 It is.
01:09:07.000 Backstabbers.
01:09:07.000 He doesn't have any friends left, is the real issue.
01:09:09.000 They all died.
01:09:10.000 He's of that age where all your friends died.
01:09:12.000 Absolutely.
01:09:13.000 And I'm not trying to be crude, but this is the reality.
01:09:15.000 His friends are all gone, and Kamala's 59, and he's like, a younger generation.
01:09:21.000 She's retirement age!
01:09:22.000 Jeez.
01:09:24.000 What we need is like a 50-year-old.
01:09:27.000 40, 45-year-old maybe?
01:09:29.000 We had DeSantis.
01:09:30.000 He was like looking around, right?
01:09:31.000 DeSantis is 40.
01:09:32.000 Yeah.
01:09:32.000 That's good that DeSantis is 40.
01:09:36.000 Well, that's actually like, you know, leading your movement into the future.
01:09:40.000 Yeah.
01:09:41.000 Which is smart by Trump to say we're going to put somebody here that's younger that could be the leader of the party in the future, potentially.
01:09:47.000 Also, J.D.
01:09:47.000 Vance's policy plans, his ideas are really interesting because they're basically liberal plans from the mid 80s.
01:09:54.000 They all are.
01:09:57.000 My stepmother was a Democrat at the time and my dad was a Republican.
01:10:00.000 My dad was like a pro Ronald Reagan and my stepmom was, what was it, Walter Mondale was like the race at the time.
01:10:07.000 Oh wow.
01:10:08.000 Yeah, old-timey, I know.
01:10:10.000 Mondale.
01:10:10.000 Mondale.
01:10:11.000 And I remember sitting, not as bad as Dukakis, but I remember sitting around the dining room table with my, you know, parents, and they would talk about different stuff.
01:10:19.000 And my stepmother was all, labor, you know, families, working families, you know, all of this kind of stuff.
01:10:28.000 And my dad was like, fiscal responsibility.
01:10:30.000 And that's what they would argue about.
01:10:32.000 And now Vance is like, a little bit of fiscal responsibility, families, labor, American Dream.
01:10:38.000 Yeah, I think that's what's the most fascinating thing in American politics is that the parties that we have today, though they have the same name, are fundamentally different than they were two or three decades ago.
01:10:49.000 And I think that's the reality that especially like younger generations are growing up in.
01:10:53.000 They actually cannot relate to their grandparents who are registered Democrats or Republicans because not only do they face, you know, different technological issues, but they are actually not talking about the same thing at all.
01:11:04.000 I say it a lot, but, you know, America, Well, I don't know if you've watched Hillbilly Elegy yet.
01:11:08.000 about a common goal, shared values, and we have different ideas on how to get there.
01:11:12.000 But actually right now these parties have different visions and opinions on the country.
01:11:16.000 They are leading them in different directions.
01:11:17.000 It's not about compromising because they don't want the same things.
01:11:20.000 Well, I don't know if you've watched Hillbilly Elegy yet.
01:11:22.000 I've heard about it for years.
01:11:23.000 I've read the book.
01:11:24.000 Okay, yeah, I finally watched the Netflix show on the way back from Milwaukee while we were
01:11:28.000 doing all the flight issues we were talking about earlier.
01:11:30.000 And I was like, I have some time, I'll watch it.
01:11:31.000 That's the family and community he grew up in, and so it's authentic, it's genuine, it makes sense for the policy.
01:11:36.000 They're starting to attack him for it, too.
01:11:37.000 They're like, that's not even real.
01:11:38.000 That was a Time article today, which you're gonna be like, what are you talking about?
01:11:43.000 And for the Kentucky governor to come out and be like, oh, he doesn't know what growing up in middle class was like.
01:11:48.000 That's a man who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth, whose dad gave him the position he has.
01:11:52.000 And you watch that or read the book and like he grew up in the worst of the worst.
01:11:56.000 And the way that he first of all made a career himself, completely by himself, first in his family to ever go to college and then actually become a VP nominee.
01:12:03.000 Like, that's the true testament to the American dream, and it's not somebody code-switching or actually, you know, making up this false life story like we've seen some of the left make up.
01:12:11.000 He wrote this book, you know, years and years ago before he even entered politics, and so this is true and genuine.
01:12:16.000 He didn't have aspirations at the time.
01:12:18.000 Right, and he was already successful, right?
01:12:19.000 He had had this career in Silicon Valley.
01:12:21.000 The media said they can't do Shapiro because he's Jewish.
01:12:23.000 I'm sure everyone has political aspirations when they're thinking about the future, but
01:12:26.000 you know, it was a very different time period when he was writing it than the stage of life
01:12:31.000 he's in right now.
01:12:33.000 Andy Bacher out of Kentucky is on the shortlist, hypothetically, to be one of Kamala Harris's
01:12:38.000 VP picks.
01:12:39.000 So I feel like you have to look at...
01:12:40.000 You don't think it's going to be Shapiro?
01:12:41.000 I mean, it could be any of them, right?
01:12:42.000 I feel like they're leaning towards...
01:12:43.000 There's a guy in Arizona, too.
01:12:44.000 Well, the media said they can't do Shapiro because he's Jewish.
01:12:47.000 Wow.
01:12:48.000 They...
01:12:49.000 Wow.
01:12:50.000 They can't have a Jewish vice president?
01:12:52.000 Yes, numerous media outlets have said that her husband and a vice president being Jewish would cost her the election.
01:12:59.000 Does the media know that that's anti-Semitic?
01:13:02.000 It's not because they're allowed to say it, because they're the media.
01:13:05.000 It's only when their opposition says it, it's bad.
01:13:07.000 Well, isn't Doug Imhoff chair of this little anti-Semitic group?
01:13:09.000 He needs to be, you know, writing some strongly worded letter against these media organizations, but they won't because they're in bed with them and they're their best friends.
01:13:16.000 And they might look at Pennsylvania as a lost state, to be honest.
01:13:19.000 That's the thing about Shapiro.
01:13:20.000 I mean, Trump's assassination attempt, I am sure, fundamentally changed the way Pennsylvania voters feel about the election.
01:13:27.000 I'm not saying all of them love Trump, but I mean, to have that happen in your backyard is impactful.
01:13:33.000 And so then to look towards Arizona or Kentucky or a different state, I mean, there might be sort of a calculation there where they're like, look, it would be nice, but we just aren't going to win the states.
01:13:42.000 We have to use these resources differently.
01:13:45.000 We heard a lot about Kelly today, and he sent out some fundraising emails for the Biden campaign, which I thought was interesting.
01:13:50.000 I think Shapiro or Kelly makes the most sense to win like an actual state, but again, It's whether or not they view Pennsylvania as a lost cause.
01:13:57.000 And I mean, obviously that was such a pivotal state in 20.
01:14:00.000 If they do this time, that's a strong testament to obviously Trump, you know, being so high in the polls.
01:14:04.000 But the fact that, I mean, I think they can't pick a VP to singularly win a state.
01:14:09.000 It's just which state they choose to win.
01:14:11.000 Let's jump to this story from the post-millennial.
01:14:13.000 Hey, that's us.
01:14:13.000 That's you.
01:14:14.000 Who wrote this?
01:14:15.000 There's no byline.
01:14:16.000 Come on, Libby, what's going on?
01:14:18.000 I know who wrote that, but I won't tell you.
01:14:20.000 It says, Tucker Carlson overtakes Joe Rogan on Spotify, now the number one podcast in America.
01:14:27.000 Look at that shocked Joe Rogan face.
01:14:29.000 He can't believe it.
01:14:29.000 Tucker's bigger than him?
01:14:31.000 I do think.
01:14:32.000 That likely Joe will jump back into the number one slot in the next couple of weeks or so.
01:14:37.000 But this just does show that Tucker is biting at his heels.
01:14:40.000 He's getting up there.
01:14:41.000 And more importantly, how white-pilling is it that the top two podcasts are truth-tellers?
01:14:47.000 I saw your post about that.
01:14:49.000 Yeah, I think that's pretty cool.
01:14:50.000 And Tucker has been killing it lately.
01:14:52.000 He had two really... I mostly watch his interviews.
01:14:55.000 Yeah, Jack Posobiec.
01:14:56.000 Jack Posobiec's interview was great.
01:14:59.000 And he had an interview recently with Matt Taibbi that was also really great.
01:15:02.000 I saw that, yeah.
01:15:03.000 Yeah, that was really fascinating.
01:15:04.000 Both of those were fascinating.
01:15:06.000 He rebuilt this entirely by himself.
01:15:08.000 Like, there's no mainstream media support.
01:15:10.000 This was him and his team.
01:15:11.000 He's like Public Square, I think.
01:15:12.000 Yes.
01:15:12.000 Yeah, like he put this together.
01:15:14.000 This isn't like a Fox backup or anything like that.
01:15:16.000 And you know Fox is like rolling over right now.
01:15:18.000 And it took a little bit of time for him to hit his stride.
01:15:21.000 Like at first it seemed good and then it was kind of like what's going on and now the interviews are really good.
01:15:25.000 Has it been close to a year?
01:15:26.000 Almost.
01:15:27.000 Okay, yeah.
01:15:28.000 Has it been almost a year?
01:15:29.000 I think almost a year at this point.
01:15:30.000 One of my favorite Tucker stories, he was supposed to come to Alabama for a fundraiser the Monday after he got fired and I remember seeing the break.
01:15:37.000 I was driving from a campaign event and I was like, oh he's not coming anymore and like totally would have understood like you you know you just got fired from a job like you're not still coming and he still came and it was his first public event and we were supposed to have a little meeting beforehand and so I'm waiting downstairs and he comes in and you know him and he's he's Like orange.
01:15:54.000 I don't know.
01:15:54.000 I never met him.
01:15:54.000 Oh, okay.
01:15:55.000 Okay.
01:15:55.000 Well, he's like orange, orange suntan.
01:15:57.000 And it's not what he normally looks like.
01:15:59.000 And I was like, well, what happened to you?
01:16:00.000 And he was, again, everybody around was like, Oh, like if he's a little upset, like, you know, he got fired two days ago.
01:16:06.000 Like expect that, like it, you know, just kind of roll the punches.
01:16:09.000 He walks in doing the cackle, completely burnt orange.
01:16:12.000 I was like, what happened?
01:16:13.000 I've been fishing every day, golfing every afternoon, just living my best life.
01:16:17.000 And I was like, I love this.
01:16:18.000 Like, again, this is somebody that happy boy that just picks up and keeps going.
01:16:21.000 And I think Fox News needed him more than they realized.
01:16:25.000 Absolutely.
01:16:26.000 In fact, they needed him more than he really needed them.
01:16:28.000 But wasn't it sort of about the Dominion lawsuit?
01:16:30.000 Yes.
01:16:31.000 Getting him out of there so that they didn't have to fork over even more cash to Dominion?
01:16:35.000 Sure.
01:16:35.000 I mean, that was an interesting calculation on their part, right?
01:16:38.000 That they could continue on at the level without Tucker Carlson and that they could lose him and he wouldn't become a competitor somewhere else.
01:16:44.000 I mean, he could have gone to Newsmax, right?
01:16:46.000 I mean, I think it's better that he's independent, but he was a talent that they had exclusive rights to, and they decided it was worth letting him go.
01:16:52.000 And I think that must have been a miscalculation.
01:16:54.000 I don't know how much money they would have owed Dominion.
01:16:58.000 And you look at the views on each individual post, which obviously, you know, Elon letting him post that long is incredible.
01:17:04.000 That's hundreds of millions of viewers, as opposed to what I mean, he did have the number one show, but this is a lot more.
01:17:09.000 And again, I don't know how that all works.
01:17:11.000 Yeah, this is great.
01:17:12.000 But yeah, I have enjoyed I have enjoyed some of the recent interviews quite a bit.
01:17:16.000 Oh, he also had a great one with Katherine Harwich.
01:17:18.000 Oh, cool.
01:17:19.000 That was a fascinating.
01:17:20.000 She's the CBS reporter that got fired.
01:17:22.000 And yeah, yeah.
01:17:24.000 But then as much as I won't mention it, as much as I said, it was good that the top two podcasts are truth tellers.
01:17:31.000 The third biggest podcast is Call Her Daddy.
01:17:33.000 What's that?
01:17:34.000 It's like a girl's podcast that was really, like, raunchy back in the day, and she's become kind of a mainstream influencer.
01:17:40.000 Is it still raunchy?
01:17:42.000 I've never really listened to it.
01:17:43.000 I know she got married recently.
01:17:44.000 I mean, it's gone from being this, like, dating podcast, I think, to really becoming, like, kind of an all-around female influencer.
01:17:52.000 Well, you look at the kind of content that men listen to, and it's Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan, and the kind of content that women listen to is less... I don't know what the right word is.
01:18:03.000 I can tell you what I listen to.
01:18:04.000 It's none of this stuff.
01:18:06.000 Well, True Crime is big.
01:18:07.000 True Crime is big and it has a dominant female audience.
01:18:10.000 I listen to Jack and Charlie.
01:18:11.000 I listen to this show.
01:18:12.000 Those are male-dominated shows.
01:18:14.000 And then I listen to Spooked.
01:18:18.000 Just like ghost stories.
01:18:19.000 Oh yeah, I love the ghost story ones.
01:18:20.000 And I listen to Honestly with Barry Weiss.
01:18:24.000 Oh yeah.
01:18:24.000 That's a good one.
01:18:25.000 Those are mostly what I listen to.
01:18:26.000 But these are still male-dominated.
01:18:29.000 So, like, news and politics and culture is, like, 80% male audiences.
01:18:33.000 Even culture is 80% male?
01:18:35.000 Yep.
01:18:36.000 And the female podcasts are, like, sex and dating.
01:18:39.000 And true crime.
01:18:40.000 I don't like true crime because it's always, like, some child was bludgeoned to death, and you're like, ah!
01:18:46.000 Don't want!
01:18:47.000 Don't want!
01:18:47.000 And I think, like, on TV, the big shows for women are, like, Married to Strangers.
01:18:52.000 What's that?
01:18:53.000 You know what that is, right?
01:18:54.000 You watch it.
01:18:56.000 It's, uh, Married at First Sight is what you're talking about, right?
01:18:58.000 But there's like 12 shows.
01:18:59.000 Oh, there's hundreds of them.
01:19:00.000 I mean, it's not Star Trek and Red Letter Media.
01:19:01.000 Married to Strangers.
01:19:02.000 Turns out we're not watching whatever the Star- the- the- the- what is it called?
01:19:06.000 The Star- I can't even make- The Mandalorian.
01:19:07.000 That's the Star Wars.
01:19:08.000 There you go.
01:19:08.000 No, I mean, I think fundamentally the differences in what they're interested in speaks to the fact that their brains are fundamentally different, right?
01:19:15.000 It's not that women can't be interested in politics and men can't be looking for dating advice, but generally the anthropological, emotional, that kind of stuff is often something women are interested in.
01:19:25.000 Like, for True Crime, I hear this with women all the time, like, why does this happen?
01:19:29.000 How do we get here, right?
01:19:30.000 And men are often more interested in slightly different information.
01:19:33.000 I can understand where it's like, this is happening now or whatever it is.
01:19:38.000 That's the reality of culture.
01:19:40.000 And that's why I worry for a culture that only becomes politically driven.
01:19:44.000 I think that we have to have lots of different things.
01:19:47.000 We are in trouble with that right now.
01:19:49.000 There's politics in everything.
01:19:49.000 I mean, that is an issue.
01:19:51.000 There's politics in all of our different art forms, too.
01:19:53.000 I used to be really interested in modern art.
01:19:57.000 And I still like modern art, but I really like Brancusi, the sculptor, and whatever else.
01:20:01.000 but I used to really only like contemporary art.
01:20:05.000 And then it's only within like the past five or 10 years that I've started getting a lot, a lot more interested,
01:20:12.000 even less, like more like five, six years, a lot more interested in the classical arts,
01:20:18.000 including like painting that's like representational painting, the religious stuff
01:20:24.000 from not even the Renaissance necessarily, but like, which I like, but the middle ages,
01:20:29.000 because there's so much sincerity in it.
01:20:32.000 And there's so much sort of like a hope and wishing in it.
01:20:35.000 And all of these beautiful mother and child, like the Madonna and child ones, I love that.
01:20:41.000 But you don't see a lot of you don't see contemporary art forms and entertainments that are not infused with politics.
01:20:50.000 That's a good point.
01:20:51.000 And like we said earlier, it's shoved in your face.
01:20:53.000 It's shoved in your face.
01:20:54.000 And you're brought into politics constantly.
01:20:55.000 And isn't part of that have to do with the fact that we've let religion to slip into such huge decline?
01:21:00.000 Absolutely.
01:21:01.000 And religion is somewhere that we see the beautiful things.
01:21:04.000 It's when you look to God and you look to the heavens that you think like, oh, what beautiful what beautiful sky, what beautiful trees, what a beautiful
01:21:13.000 thing mankind is, what beautiful things we are to each other. And we don't
01:21:18.000 see that even half as much as we used to because we don't value the beauty of it. I was thinking
01:21:22.000 about this the other day.
01:21:23.000 It's like mankind was created in God's image, right?
01:21:29.000 That's what we learn in Genesis.
01:21:30.000 Mankind was created in God's image.
01:21:32.000 But as we move away from God, we move away from the beautiful, because God created us to be beautiful, just like Him, you know, as best we can.
01:21:41.000 God created us to be beautiful.
01:21:43.000 And as we let go of God, it's almost like we're flipping God off by saying, and now we're going to be ugly.
01:21:50.000 We don't want to be beautiful like you.
01:21:52.000 And I think that's a real tragedy.
01:21:54.000 Yeah.
01:21:54.000 And I think we see this, you know, as our culture becomes more atheist, more agnostic, we see this in all kinds of things.
01:22:00.000 I mean, when we were in Milwaukee, I was in love with the Milwaukee Public Library that was down the street from the RNC convention, right?
01:22:06.000 It's gorgeous.
01:22:07.000 It's beautiful architecture.
01:22:08.000 I mean, a lot of- It was gorgeous.
01:22:10.000 The art and creativity isn't just painting and writing and fiction and movies and plays
01:22:16.000 and stuff like that.
01:22:17.000 Like, that's obviously integral and I think people who are passionate about it should
01:22:20.000 pursue it, but it's also like the architecture we put out.
01:22:22.000 I mean, you know, when I lived in Dallas, they were throwing up apartment buildings
01:22:26.000 really quickly because people moving there.
01:22:28.000 But it didn't look like the historic, you know, buildings that were created in a lot
01:22:33.000 We forget regional architecture and our rush to kind of put up whatever.
01:22:36.000 And you'll see this with, you know, kind of the brutalist architecture.
01:22:38.000 There are so many things that we could pour beauty into that, you know, whether intentional or not, whether it's because we don't like beauty, we are kind of rejecting it or because we're in a rush to sort of get things done as cheaply and quickly as possible.
01:22:51.000 We aren't investing into it.
01:22:52.000 Either way, you know, we are losing something that was so important to society for so long.
01:22:56.000 And I think that's terrible.
01:22:57.000 And to your point about faith earlier, when I was writing the book, I went back and forth with my publishing team.
01:23:02.000 The middle section of the book is called The Modern Day F-Words, and it's faith, family, and freedom.
01:23:07.000 And they're like, you can't call it The Modern Day F-Words.
01:23:09.000 I like that.
01:23:09.000 Thank you.
01:23:10.000 And I was like, that's the cornerstone of America.
01:23:13.000 Never listen to your publisher.
01:23:15.000 Yeah, well, and it worked, you know, but we put that together and still put it out, and that's been everybody's favorite chapter every time we talk to people, because it's true, Faith, Family, and Freedom are constantly attacked by the left.
01:23:25.000 It was the cornerstone of America and the left knew when they attacked that, they attacked
01:23:29.000 all of America and it was this kind of thing.
01:23:31.000 And we constantly see these polls that are thrown in the media, you know, every few weeks
01:23:36.000 that Gen Z, you know, doesn't like America, doesn't see the beauty of America and have
01:23:39.000 hope in America.
01:23:40.000 And it's because we're constantly told how bad it is and we don't view it as this like
01:23:43.000 this is a God sent thing.
01:23:44.000 This is this opportunity of this great experiment that obviously stood the test of time for
01:23:48.000 248 years.
01:23:49.000 But when you know, not to sound like Kamala Harris, but when you don't step back and look
01:23:53.000 at the context of it without the coconut tree, when you listen to it, you just look at all
01:23:58.000 of it, like everything around you.
01:23:59.000 You're like, wow, like, it is pretty cool that America's here this long.
01:24:02.000 You look at the contemporary art, but they don't want us to do that.
01:24:05.000 They don't want us to look at the classical stuff.
01:24:07.000 It's just the, the news cycle's bad.
01:24:09.000 Look right in front of you.
01:24:09.000 Look how bad the fear-mongering is.
01:24:11.000 Let's scare you some more, get you to vote.
01:24:12.000 Hate yourself.
01:24:13.000 Hate yourself.
01:24:13.000 Cut off your boobs.
01:24:14.000 Yes, that's all it is.
01:24:15.000 Yes.
01:24:15.000 Which is terrifying.
01:24:17.000 I wonder what the shift was that made politics pop culture or vice versa.
01:24:21.000 I think it may have to do... So in 2008, we started seeing media companies making money off getting political because rage drove traffic.
01:24:32.000 But I think it was also a strategy from Democrats, predominantly, trying to figure out how to capitalize younger voters in 2008, 2012.
01:24:40.000 And they were like, so let's attack social media where young people are.
01:24:44.000 And then this created a generation of people who are like, politics is pop culture.
01:24:48.000 And I think for Gen Z, you know, I really briefly worked at a school, not as a teacher, just kind of administration staff.
01:24:54.000 And I remember that there was sort of a praise for the students who would take on activism.
01:25:00.000 And it was an all-girls school, and it was very, you know, I think just generally progressive.
01:25:03.000 But there was a desire to sort of show that your youth was politically engaged in a correct way.
01:25:10.000 And To the detriment to critical thinking and expression, because I think there are a lot of young people who are looking for validations from their teachers and their parents.
01:25:18.000 And if they're signaled like, oh, well, we think it's cool that you're so precocious and want you to talk about these issues and what else.
01:25:24.000 I mean, you see this often with young children who are brought to testify before state government when they have these bills banning transgender medical interference laws.
01:25:36.000 And they'll bring out these young, I would say, very confused people.
01:25:40.000 Whose parents are probably like, wow, you're changing everyone's life.
01:25:43.000 You're doing so great.
01:25:43.000 And they crave affirmation, which is super normal.
01:25:46.000 That's how kids are.
01:25:48.000 And it's sort of confusing.
01:25:50.000 being mature and interesting with taking on and parroting the views of someone else.
01:25:57.000 And you mentioned 2008. They claim 2008 was the first Twitter election when everything
01:26:02.000 became on social media. I think 24 is going to be the first TikTok election where it's like,
01:26:06.000 and Trump and I talked about this, where you can put a 15 second video out for free. And right now
01:26:12.000 he's getting at least 200 million views on each video for free, as opposed to spending hundreds
01:26:18.000 of millions of dollars on a 30 second ad that people aren't watching cable.
01:26:21.000 I don't think the views are real.
01:26:22.000 Absolutely not.
01:26:23.000 On TikTok, how come?
01:26:24.000 Uh...
01:26:26.000 Just industry stuff.
01:26:29.000 So I'll just put it this way.
01:26:30.000 I've met people who... Let's phrase it like this.
01:26:34.000 Selling advertisements.
01:26:35.000 Selling sponsorship.
01:26:37.000 We do this all the time and we'll go to a sponsor and we'll say we can get X amount of views and they will tell us we are not interested in TikTok and a couple other platforms who I will not mention because it's a waste of money.
01:26:53.000 And the issue is, so the one thing we hear about like YouTube sponsorships is they're like, I can't believe how well the ad performed.
01:27:00.000 When we sponsor your show, it's incredible.
01:27:03.000 And I'm like, yeah, because we have a lot of people who watch it.
01:27:07.000 And they're like, yeah, but we sponsor other shows of comparable views and nobody buys stuff.
01:27:11.000 And I'm like, because the views probably aren't real.
01:27:15.000 Because...
01:27:16.000 They'll say my podcast gets X amount of views and that's not correct.
01:27:20.000 And so I could be wrong about TikTok.
01:27:23.000 What I can say is that they don't convert.
01:27:26.000 And so we don't prioritize it all that heavily because it's hard to actually capitalize.
01:27:31.000 Sure.
01:27:32.000 I haven't heard that yet.
01:27:33.000 That's a good point.
01:27:34.000 Yeah, there's a couple other platforms I won't mention.
01:27:38.000 You know, I'm not 100% on TikTok.
01:27:40.000 I don't know exactly what's going on on their platform.
01:27:41.000 It's fine, whatever.
01:27:42.000 I don't know.
01:27:43.000 I'm just saying my opinion.
01:27:45.000 We've talked to sponsors and said, you know, we only do sales really on the audio versions.
01:27:51.000 So you can, for everyone listening, we're on iTunes and Spotify as well.
01:27:55.000 People are like, hey, the show's not on YouTube.
01:27:57.000 What do I do?
01:27:58.000 It's on iTunes and Spotify.
01:27:59.000 It's on every podcast platform, by the way.
01:28:02.000 But they'll come to us and they'll say, we take all our metrics from every platform.
01:28:06.000 We show them to the sponsors.
01:28:08.000 We have like a DAC and they'll be like, look what we can do for you.
01:28:10.000 And we're very, very, very particular.
01:28:13.000 That's why we almost never have any sponsors on the podcast version until we have like four or five.
01:28:18.000 Cause I'll just outright be like, not reading that.
01:28:19.000 Won't do that.
01:28:20.000 You get a lot of sponsors that are like, will you say that our underwear is the best underwear you've ever tried?
01:28:25.000 And I'm like, if I try it and I think it's the best underwear I've ever tried.
01:28:28.000 And they go, really?
01:28:29.000 You mean you're not like buying?
01:28:30.000 You're not going to read a teleprompter or whatever they put in front of you?
01:28:32.000 You're just not going to say?
01:28:33.000 I will tell you this.
01:28:33.000 It's all fake.
01:28:34.000 I know some people who have big endorsement deals, and they outright say, like, I never wore those shorts before.
01:28:40.000 And they're like, 100%.
01:28:40.000 Really?
01:28:40.000 That's horrible.
01:28:41.000 I mean, I believe it, but that sucks.
01:28:43.000 I like when happy in Cappy Gilmore when he starts the subway sandwiches.
01:28:49.000 But my point ultimately is...
01:28:51.000 When we were recently negotiating with someone and they said, we want to buy X amount of ad reads or whatever.
01:28:57.000 And I was like, well, I don't know if we could do it.
01:28:59.000 What if we did this instead on these platforms?
01:29:01.000 And they were like, not interested.
01:29:03.000 And I said, why not these platforms?
01:29:04.000 And they said, because they never convert and we waste our money.
01:29:07.000 And I'm like, uh huh.
01:29:08.000 So the views may be real.
01:29:10.000 But the question is, with things like TikTok, and I'll just I'll just say I'm not trying to be a dick, but X X doesn't convert.
01:29:18.000 Well, look, we tried multi-streaming two days, and then we stopped.
01:29:23.000 Because people were like, wow, Tim, you got 800,000 views on X. And I'm like, yeah.
01:29:29.000 And then we looked at the back end.
01:29:31.000 And it's like, I like X. X does what it does, but it doesn't do the live streams in the same way that it does.
01:29:35.000 I can post something and get 1,000 retweets, and then those actually do convert.
01:29:40.000 So the thing about X that works is if I tweet, But if someone's like, will you do a video with a sponsor?
01:29:48.000 So we've offered that.
01:29:48.000 We're like, hey, what if we do a stream on X and then we do it?
01:29:50.000 No, because that's not going to, it's not going to make, it's not going to work.
01:29:53.000 So I think the issue is with TikTok, people are going to scroll through, Trump's going to get the view, but 200 million?
01:29:59.000 I mean, you got to be talking about people in Indonesia, Turkey, Singapore.
01:30:03.000 How many Americans are you actually reaching with this?
01:30:06.000 So when Mr. Beast gets 200 million views on a YouTube video, it's like, yo, there's not that many Americans.
01:30:11.000 Like there's 330 million, but I'm saying like, They're not all Mr. Beast fans on YouTube.
01:30:16.000 So the question is, are these actually worth getting?
01:30:20.000 And that's why we don't care that much about TikTok.
01:30:24.000 What I think we have to be careful of is there's been some other people who have been like, we get an email and they're like, We'd love to book Tim Pool to come on our show.
01:30:33.000 We have a million followers.
01:30:35.000 And I go, how about that?
01:30:36.000 And then I go to their profile, and they have 1000 views and 10 comments.
01:30:39.000 And I'm like, no, you don't.
01:30:41.000 And that's the same thing.
01:30:42.000 So I don't think TikTok is actually all that worth it, in my opinion.
01:30:45.000 But you know, I don't think I don't think TikTok will be the great influencer.
01:30:51.000 Has Dylan Mulvaney been in the news recently?
01:30:53.000 No.
01:30:55.000 That's kind of weird.
01:30:56.000 I'm trending on Twitter all the time, and then journalists use Twitter, and then journalists write about it.
01:31:02.000 That's why it's so powerful.
01:31:05.000 Instagram also converts really well.
01:31:08.000 Instagram's crazy.
01:31:09.000 People love buying on Instagram.
01:31:11.000 But I don't see it on TikTok.
01:31:13.000 That's just me.
01:31:13.000 I could be wrong.
01:31:14.000 It could just be us.
01:31:16.000 I think TikTok is weird because it does have an influence on some types of commerce.
01:31:21.000 Like I remember when the world was out of feta cheese because that one recipe went viral.
01:31:25.000 You'll hear this story about like book talk, like authors will have released a book seven years ago and all of a sudden it'll just kind of blow up and they'll suddenly have this new fan base.
01:31:34.000 But it's hard for me to know.
01:31:36.000 entirely because we don't totally know how they count views.
01:31:39.000 Like how long does someone have to stay on a video?
01:31:41.000 What kind of engagement do they have to have?
01:31:43.000 It's all weird and it's all, you know, shadows, right?
01:31:46.000 Very shadowy.
01:31:47.000 I think ultimately we'll probably see a collapse of the influencer market.
01:31:51.000 I think that is an industry that has blown up and it will change.
01:31:56.000 But it is interesting because you'll find that there are some people who have,
01:32:01.000 you know, are on the cutting edge, right?
01:32:02.000 Like there are probably people on Rumble who have a very loyal following
01:32:06.000 that don't have any engagement somewhere else.
01:32:08.000 I mean, it might become more siloed than we realize it.
01:32:11.000 I just don't know what the future of social media holds because we just don't know what's coming.
01:32:15.000 Neuralink.
01:32:17.000 That's a no from me, dawg, but you already know that.
01:32:19.000 You're going to get a book offer, and they're going to say, we really want you to write this book.
01:32:25.000 It's got a $3 million advance, and it's because 20 years, $3 million will be equivalent of $200,000.
01:32:29.000 And then you're going to be like, that's great.
01:32:31.000 And they'll be like, so we'd love to do this deal.
01:32:33.000 What's your Neuralink username?
01:32:35.000 And you're going to be like, oh, I don't have Neuralink.
01:32:36.000 And they're going to go, well, how do we send you the contract?
01:32:40.000 And you're going to be like, well, I have email.
01:32:41.000 And they're going to be like, Excuse me?
01:32:43.000 Look, I still ask for restaurants to give me a paper menu even when they have a QR code.
01:32:46.000 I could make it for a little while, probably.
01:32:48.000 Thankfully, I would be dead.
01:32:50.000 Try applying for a job today and letting them know that you have a rotary phone, that you're at your house between the hours of X and X, and they can only call you then.
01:32:58.000 They're going to be like, yeah, I'm not hiring you.
01:32:59.000 They're going to say, where do I email you?
01:33:01.000 I don't have a computer, but I do have a touch-tone phone.
01:33:04.000 People talked about this, especially during COVID, because they were like, well, schools are remote.
01:33:08.000 But then, you know, especially in the southern part of West Virginia, like the infrastructure doesn't support universally strong wireless services.
01:33:15.000 And so it's like, you are actually asking me to use a resource that I don't have.
01:33:19.000 I mean, we will see- That was why Biden went out there and he just kept talking about internet services.
01:33:24.000 We got fiber out here now.
01:33:26.000 Which is really great news.
01:33:28.000 I had friends during COVID who had to go park in a McDonald's parking lot and connect to their Wi-Fi and do things.
01:33:32.000 Wow.
01:33:33.000 What if there's no McDonald's near you?
01:33:34.000 Yeah, what are you going to do?
01:33:35.000 It's crazy.
01:33:36.000 If there's no McDonald's, just go to the Starbucks.
01:33:39.000 I'm sure, you know, Welch West Virginia is prepared for that.
01:33:42.000 When we first moved to Western Maryland in the castle, the only internet was 20 megabit DSL.
01:33:51.000 What is it?
01:33:51.000 DSL?
01:33:52.000 I don't know.
01:33:52.000 Sounds like a thing.
01:33:53.000 And so we asked... ESL was a thing.
01:33:56.000 Yeah, it's using a phone line.
01:33:58.000 And so we asked about a fiber optic, and it took I think four or five months, and it's $3,000 a month.
01:34:07.000 And they had to lay like a mile and a half of fiber cable from their backhaul connection down underground to our building, and so that, I think, costs like $30,000.
01:34:20.000 You're like founding a civilization in Maryland?
01:34:22.000 What were you doing?
01:34:23.000 Well, so we're out in West Virginia, and in order to get internet here, we have to pay the company to lay the fiber line underground for miles upon miles to then wire the building up.
01:34:35.000 We have Starlink backup, and now the good news is the provider out here has recently upgraded to fiber, so now they've You've got to lay the cables.
01:34:47.000 I knew someone in West Virginia was trying to work with a fiber provider and had to sign
01:34:51.000 a contract, like, because it was a business, and be like, I will be here for, I can't remember,
01:34:54.000 it's three or five years, because the businesses are gambling, right?
01:34:57.000 Like, they have to invest in it.
01:34:59.000 Yeah, so they'll say something like, if you do a five-year guaranteed contract,
01:35:03.000 they will cover 70% of the cost to lay the cable underground.
01:35:07.000 If you do a two-year, then they'll cover 20%.
01:35:10.000 And if you do no guarantee, you gotta pay full cost, 30 grand or whatever.
01:35:14.000 And then we did some kind of deal, because I was like, yeah, whatever, I don't care.
01:35:16.000 And then they installed the wrong box, because there's like two different kinds.
01:35:20.000 I can't remember exactly what happened.
01:35:22.000 And then we were like, why is the internet working?
01:35:23.000 And they were like, whoops.
01:35:25.000 And then they had to come out and reprogram it.
01:35:26.000 So dumb.
01:35:27.000 I'll say I'm on your wifi and it works great.
01:35:30.000 Yeah, well, the thing is like consumer gigabit internet is a hundred bucks.
01:35:34.000 Business rural gigabit internet is like two to $3,000.
01:35:37.000 Per month.
01:35:39.000 That's crazy.
01:35:40.000 That's right.
01:35:41.000 Alright everybody, we're gonna go to Super Chat, so smash that like button, subscribe to this channel.
01:35:46.000 One like equals one FKH?
01:35:50.000 I'm trying it out.
01:35:50.000 What do you guys think?
01:35:52.000 I don't know.
01:35:52.000 FJ beats kind of rolled off the tongue.
01:35:54.000 I saw a truck the other day.
01:35:55.000 It said FJB under it.
01:35:56.000 It was like Dodge Ram or whatever.
01:35:58.000 It said FJB under it.
01:35:59.000 And I'm like, ah, he's got to take that off now.
01:36:00.000 I spoke at Rock the South the other day.
01:36:01.000 It's this really big Southern music festival, country music festival.
01:36:05.000 35,000 young people there.
01:36:07.000 And I came out and gave this spiel about registering to vote and how important it is and blah, blah, blah.
01:36:10.000 This is the day before Biden dropped out.
01:36:11.000 It was last Saturday.
01:36:13.000 I couldn't get through my speech to him because of the FJB chants.
01:36:16.000 Yeah!
01:36:16.000 I had to pause because it was so loud.
01:36:18.000 It was great.
01:36:19.000 It was wonderful.
01:36:19.000 So now I have to change it.
01:36:21.000 Well, F-K-H.
01:36:23.000 So head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member to support our work directly, and then you can come hang out for our members-only uncensored call-in show coming up at 10 p.m.
01:36:32.000 where members get to call in and actually talk to us and our guests hang out on the show.
01:36:36.000 It's totally worth it.
01:36:38.000 And in the meantime, we are going to read your superchats, but I will stress this too.
01:36:42.000 It's very important for all of you guys to know this.
01:36:44.000 Um, when we had an episode taken down a couple days ago, I'm getting a bunch of messages saying like, where's the episode, where's the episode, and it's always up on iTunes and Spotify.
01:36:54.000 Right when the show wraps.
01:36:55.000 So if you're ever on YouTube and you don't see anything, it's gonna be there, and then depending on what happens, it may be on Rumble as well.
01:37:01.000 So important context.
01:37:03.000 But for those that would like to, you can also just listen on iTunes and Spotify as well.
01:37:07.000 I will tell you this, iTunes and Spotify conversions are... iTunes conversions are insane.
01:37:16.000 So I think it's like 4X for iTunes to YouTube.
01:37:21.000 It could be more.
01:37:21.000 It could be like 10.
01:37:22.000 Wow.
01:37:23.000 Yeah, so if you get... Like the CPMs are bonkers.
01:37:27.000 I think it's 10 times it could be it could be five or 10 times the revenue.
01:37:31.000 So it's like, that's what everybody has a podcast.
01:37:35.000 I think if you get like 100,000 views on your podcast, you might be making like 100,000 a month.
01:37:41.000 If you get 100 and that's in one day 100,000.
01:37:44.000 If you get 100,000 on YouTube, you're gonna make like 200 bucks.
01:37:47.000 So it's like five.
01:37:48.000 It's Oh, that's substantially.
01:37:50.000 I'm sorry, that's per day.
01:37:51.000 Yeah, so let's see.
01:37:52.000 If you're doing like a hundred thousand per day, you're going to be getting... Yeah, I think it might be like five times as much revenue on podcasts.
01:38:00.000 Well, the thing is about podcasts is that people turn them on, they leave them on the whole time.
01:38:03.000 That's true.
01:38:04.000 Yeah, and they convert better for whatever reason.
01:38:06.000 I think the issue too with social media is that people are scrolling through things, they click things, they X them out.
01:38:10.000 But when you pull it up on your phone, you put your phone on your car, You're in.
01:38:14.000 And so they end up generating a lot more money.
01:38:17.000 All right, tbomb85 says, Howdy, very fine people!
01:38:21.000 And then an eggplant and a peach emoji.
01:38:24.000 Clint Torres in second place with Howdy People.
01:38:28.000 It's finally happened, Clint.
01:38:30.000 You've been dethroned, unfortunately.
01:38:32.000 Clint always has the first one, but not today.
01:38:35.000 I have a great time!
01:38:35.000 I would love to do that.
01:38:36.000 That'd be so fun.
01:38:37.000 Or I want to follow Melania Trump around.
01:38:38.000 I think she's great.
01:38:39.000 I don't know that Scanner needs a specific Melania correspondent, but if we do, I'm there.
01:38:42.000 You should totally do it.
01:38:44.000 And actually, I mean, that'd be kind of brutal, because they do the press conference at, what, like 2 p.m.
01:38:48.000 I don't know that scanner needs a specific Melania correspondent, but if we do I'm there.
01:38:55.000 And actually, I mean, that'd be kind of brutal because they do the press conference at what,
01:38:58.000 like 2pm or 1pm?
01:39:00.000 And then coming on the show after, after having been there, would actually be...
01:39:03.000 That would be cool.
01:39:04.000 Yeah, you should totally do that.
01:39:06.000 You'd be like, I asked the press secretary personally and they told me this.
01:39:09.000 I think it would be cool.
01:39:10.000 And again, I think it would kind of marry the relationship between alternative media.
01:39:13.000 Like instead of a White House correspondent calling into Fox, it would be like, I am here with you guys.
01:39:17.000 Well, that was such a cool thing when Trump was in office because you had OAN in the briefing room, you had Newsmax, you know, and sometimes there'd be random other outlets just hanging out in the briefing room.
01:39:28.000 Sean Spicer started it where once a month, At the beginning of the administration, you could zoom in if you had a podcast.
01:39:33.000 And that was really cool.
01:39:34.000 I need to bring that back.
01:39:35.000 Yeah, that was cool, too.
01:39:36.000 And they made fun of me.
01:39:37.000 Corporate press was pissed.
01:39:38.000 Of course they were.
01:39:39.000 They've been pissed about everything ever since the blogosphere.
01:39:42.000 Well, because they're dying.
01:39:43.000 All right, let's go.
01:39:45.000 Tim Crespi says, how can Kamala as VP count the electoral college votes?
01:39:49.000 She's going to be running and then counting the votes for herself without ever getting a vote.
01:39:53.000 It would be really funny if she just like, she gets up there at the podium.
01:39:57.000 She's like, I'm gonna count the votes that you've all given me.
01:39:59.000 I'm gonna count the votes for the president.
01:40:01.000 Here's the ones you've given me.
01:40:02.000 But I got this basket right here.
01:40:03.000 Kamala?
01:40:03.000 Kamala?
01:40:04.000 Kamala's gonna be like, wait a minute.
01:40:08.000 This was just sitting here when I walked up.
01:40:11.000 Yeah, these must be the votes.
01:40:13.000 Villainous V says, Tim, does Kamala still have the post on AXA about the fundraiser for the BLM rioters, or did they delete it?
01:40:19.000 Still there.
01:40:19.000 Also, Howdy Clint?
01:40:21.000 Yeah, still there.
01:40:22.000 And it still takes money, which is insane.
01:40:24.000 She's a sitting VP raising money for bail reform.
01:40:27.000 BC says, AG Bailey was just here the other day, hating on VP Harris for wrongfully keeping people imprisoned.
01:40:33.000 Today, he did the same thing with Christopher Dunn, who has been wrongly imprisoned for 31 years.
01:40:38.000 What's that about?
01:40:39.000 I do not know.
01:40:40.000 I don't know enough about that case.
01:40:43.000 I don't know.
01:40:44.000 I like it.
01:40:44.000 Give me a second.
01:40:45.000 I'll brief myself.
01:40:46.000 The future White House correspondent is going to do some research over here.
01:40:49.000 I feel like there must be something going on there.
01:40:51.000 Yeah.
01:40:52.000 Oh, okay.
01:40:53.000 What's the story?
01:40:54.000 So, 20 hours ago, Missouri Supreme Court halts release of a man with an overturned conviction as he's about to go free.
01:40:59.000 This is AP News.
01:41:01.000 He has an overturned conviction?
01:41:02.000 Mm-hmm.
01:41:02.000 That's what they're saying.
01:41:04.000 Threatened by?
01:41:05.000 And so, Bailey didn't do it.
01:41:07.000 The Supreme Court did.
01:41:07.000 What do you mean?
01:41:09.000 AP News is reporting that he's been fighting Dunn's release.
01:41:13.000 Right, right.
01:41:14.000 The situation was chaotic as the deadline was set by the judge approaches.
01:41:18.000 Corrections department spokesperson Karen Pomogian told the Associated Press that Dunn was out of the prison facility and waiting for a ride.
01:41:25.000 His wife told AP News she was on his way to pick him up.
01:41:28.000 Let me read about this for a minute.
01:41:29.000 I'll give you a summary.
01:41:30.000 I'm just wondering what the crime was and why Bailey's contesting it.
01:41:36.000 Let's go!
01:41:40.000 No, you guys talk.
01:41:40.000 I'm gonna find out.
01:41:41.000 Somebody told Kamala that I bought Chuckling and she really took it to heart.
01:41:45.000 She sent it every moment of every day.
01:41:47.000 No, to start Chuckling.
01:41:47.000 frying pan on YouTube, good things come in humorous small moments, we are going to make
01:41:51.000 it.
01:41:52.000 I wonder if that's them making pancakes with the frying pan.
01:41:54.000 I wonder.
01:41:55.000 Somebody told Kamala that I bought chocolate and she really took it to heart.
01:41:58.000 She sent it every moment of every day.
01:42:00.000 No, to start chuckling, to make her day better.
01:42:03.000 I think the marketing and PR consultants are just like, you've got to laugh every second, no matter what.
01:42:08.000 Any question, laugh.
01:42:09.000 Anything.
01:42:11.000 Oh, crazy.
01:42:12.000 Yeah.
01:42:14.000 What have we here?
01:42:16.000 Mike Harrison says, Tim, I have been suffering all week with an infected root canal.
01:42:19.000 I'm here today to ask if you could shout out my give, send, go.
01:42:21.000 It is Michael H. Dental Work.
01:42:23.000 I need help paying for expensive dental work I need done.
01:42:25.000 Thank you.
01:42:27.000 Well, best of luck, sir.
01:42:28.000 They said that, because I just literally had that like two or three weeks ago, antibiotics, dirt cheap, and it instantly alleviates the pain, and they weren't kidding.
01:42:38.000 Award-winning Taint says, always fun to watch Brimcast with co-host Tim Pool and specialty guest Libby Emmons, a lineup worthy of an award like myself.
01:42:47.000 Look, the coup was successful, and we have supporters out there.
01:42:50.000 I appreciate it.
01:42:51.000 It was grassroots.
01:42:53.000 Yeah, it was.
01:42:54.000 Immediately, especially led by Tim, who said, I can't come into work today.
01:42:58.000 I easily exemplified what's wrong with transferring all of Biden's funds to Kamala Harris.
01:43:04.000 By saying, what if I told all of you to become a member, and I, Tim Pool, a show that you know and love, we will utilize this funding to hire good people, to build culture, to do a news show, and then once everyone donated, I went, oh, and by the way, we're putting Ian in charge and I'm quitting.
01:43:23.000 You'd be like, no way.
01:43:25.000 That's basically what happened with Kamala Harris.
01:43:27.000 That is what happened.
01:43:28.000 All of these voters are entirely disenfranchised and the attorneys general for these states where the voters were disenfranchised should be up in arms and suing.
01:43:36.000 Could you imagine being like a white supremacist right now?
01:43:38.000 Going like, I donated to the old white guy, what's going on?
01:43:41.000 Aw, jeez.
01:43:43.000 He's gonna want his money back.
01:43:44.000 Isn't that all white people?
01:43:46.000 That's all the white liberals.
01:43:48.000 Okay, what do we have?
01:43:50.000 Franco Phillips says, Tim and crew, take a look at the recent picture of Biden and Netanyahu.
01:43:53.000 Biden stands four inches taller, although Google has them both at six foot.
01:43:58.000 Hmm.
01:43:59.000 What?
01:43:59.000 Well, yeah, but Google would be wrong.
01:44:01.000 They had JD Vans at 5'7".
01:44:02.000 I know, I still think a lot of men claim to be six feet when they are maybe not.
01:44:05.000 Is that self-reported?
01:44:06.000 We'll have to look that up.
01:44:07.000 That's crazy.
01:44:09.000 What have we here?
01:44:11.000 Gary Marks says, please stop calling us snowflakes.
01:44:14.000 A snowflake in an avalanche.
01:44:16.000 What else could I say?
01:44:16.000 The raindrops in the flood.
01:44:18.000 Yes, the rain, the unique snowflakes.
01:44:21.000 No, you're all unique and beautiful snowflakes.
01:44:24.000 We're here to be positive and whatever.
01:44:28.000 Coroag says, we refuse to teach the next generation about the basic foundation of having good character.
01:44:34.000 The foundations are responsibility, accountability, and integrity.
01:44:36.000 Thoughts?
01:44:37.000 Do you believe there is a more basic foundation?
01:44:39.000 I don't know, what do you think?
01:44:41.000 I think that they're asking some complex questions in this chat.
01:44:47.000 What is the foundation of good character?
01:44:49.000 I think that it starts in the home.
01:44:52.000 And so I know we constantly attack indoctrination in the schools, which absolutely needs to stop.
01:44:58.000 But we need to start again and encourage good parenting, because that's how I have good character, which is a crazy concept.
01:45:04.000 Yep.
01:45:04.000 But I think that once we start, you know, actually inspiring Christian conservative values and morals in the living room, we're going to have a lot better country and we're going to look at this 10, 20 years from now and be like, wow, these young patriots that are coming up in middle school, where did this come from?
01:45:18.000 And it's from strong parents.
01:45:19.000 So when we encourage strong parenting, you know, with school choice and great things like that, I think they're onto something there.
01:45:24.000 Marcus M says, quote, I'll throw beef.
01:45:27.000 I missed.
01:45:28.000 Did it work?
01:45:28.000 Nope, didn't work.
01:45:29.000 Is my favorite out of context Tim Pool quote we've gotten from a live morning show.
01:45:34.000 So the autofocus, after I started the show, just focused on the mic and blurred my face.
01:45:40.000 So I grabbed that beef and I threw it at the camera to try and force it to, you know, shift.
01:45:46.000 And it didn't work.
01:45:47.000 And that's why I said those things.
01:45:49.000 But the best quote ever is the one that Seamus Coghlan of Freedom Tunes turned into a cartoon, where I was talking about how if you live in a city, Antifa will attack you and they'll beat you, but if you live in the countryside, you can have chickens.
01:46:05.000 But the way he pulled that out of context makes it sound like, if you don't leave the city, I'm going to beat you, unless you buy chickens, or something like that.
01:46:13.000 And it's tremendously hilarious, and I'll pull it up.
01:46:18.000 I don't know, actually, what did Seamus even call it?
01:46:22.000 Just so we have it wrapped up, the Christopher Dunn situation in Missouri, he was convicted of a stabbing in the 90s and then his conviction was overturned.
01:46:30.000 But Bailey's office, at least in June, had said through the appeals process, multiple courts have affirmed that Christopher Dunn's murder conviction, we always fight to obtain the rule of law.
01:46:40.000 So there's a question about whether his overturned conviction is fair, I guess.
01:46:44.000 So it could be an issue of progressives trying to get a bad guy out.
01:46:48.000 Yeah, I don't know enough about what the appeal process looked like, you know?
01:46:50.000 We have to see why the conviction was overturned to understand both sides of it.
01:46:54.000 Barrett 1313 says Tim, please shout out Creekside Antiques in downtown Martinsburg is having a free swap meet this
01:47:02.000 Saturday 727 two blocks from the Castbro location my wife and I will
01:47:06.000 have a booth there great deals wait That's not really cool. Everyone should go to if you've got
01:47:12.000 nothing else to do and you come to good old Martinsburg and go to
01:47:16.000 Creekside Antiques to meet and Live to live to talk to people to check out antiques
01:47:22.000 What time is it at?
01:47:24.000 It doesn't say.
01:47:24.000 I don't know.
01:47:24.000 I wonder if it's on Google.
01:47:26.000 Well, I might because I'm doing stuff and driving with my kid this weekend and taking him to his friends.
01:47:33.000 And there's some really great restaurants.
01:47:36.000 I recommend Bricks.
01:47:38.000 That's where I was going to take him because you said it was good.
01:47:41.000 So sometime we're going to go there.
01:47:43.000 They sous vide the filet mignon and then they pan sear.
01:47:47.000 It means it's like slow cooked at a very, very low temperature.
01:47:50.000 It's like in hot water.
01:47:52.000 It's like sealed and then they put it in hot water so it gets real tender.
01:47:56.000 And then they like bake it and pan sear it or something.
01:47:59.000 It's just one of the best I've ever had.
01:48:00.000 And then they got truffle fries.
01:48:02.000 Big fan.
01:48:03.000 There's an oyster bar that's opened pretty recently in that area too.
01:48:06.000 And apparently it's really good.
01:48:07.000 I've never been.
01:48:08.000 It's coming up.
01:48:09.000 There's a building there that's like 500,000 square feet that was like, yeah, crazy.
01:48:13.000 And it was on sale for like $700,000, which is nuts.
01:48:15.000 Yeah.
01:48:15.000 Because how do you maintain something like that?
01:48:18.000 And I guess a big firm bought it and they're converting it to condos.
01:48:21.000 So Martinsburg is coming up.
01:48:23.000 Absolutely.
01:48:23.000 Are you talking about the factory?
01:48:25.000 Yeah, is that what it was?
01:48:26.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:48:27.000 It's interesting because it's a developer out of Virginia that has converted several different large scale factories into apartments and stuff.
01:48:33.000 I was going to buy that building.
01:48:35.000 Really?
01:48:35.000 Yeah, before we were looking at the castle, I was like, we could have a factory.
01:48:41.000 And then the issue is, how do you maintain such a large building?
01:48:44.000 And I was like, I don't.
01:48:45.000 And like, yeah, dude, someone's gonna break in a block away.
01:48:48.000 A block away.
01:48:50.000 And you're gonna have no idea.
01:48:51.000 And it's hard when buildings have been sitting empty for a while, because I know that building had gone through a couple different changes in ownership.
01:48:56.000 But it is interesting to see.
01:48:57.000 I mean, I hope this happens to a lot of American towns, right?
01:49:00.000 People come in and invest in the area.
01:49:02.000 You know, there are a couple other investors that have invested in that downtown Martinsburg block and made them nice apartments, and I know they sold out immediately.
01:49:08.000 Better than tearing down, you know, old architecture.
01:49:10.000 You're revitalizing.
01:49:11.000 I love that.
01:49:11.000 Yeah, for sure.
01:49:12.000 It's great.
01:49:12.000 I like that, too.
01:49:13.000 It's really good.
01:49:13.000 I like a little landmark status.
01:49:15.000 Yes, yes.
01:49:17.000 Jay Jesus.
01:49:17.000 Hey, Tim Crew.
01:49:19.000 I have a great career opportunity near Lockport, Illinois.
01:49:21.000 Oh, Lockport.
01:49:22.000 But it means leaving Florida.
01:49:24.000 Anywhere near there, we should check out when I interview next week.
01:49:27.000 Appreciate your efforts.
01:49:28.000 And remember, the left lane is for crime.
01:49:31.000 Hill?
01:49:32.000 Lockport.
01:49:33.000 I've not spent too much time in Lockport, but I had friends who lived around there.
01:49:37.000 I think my friend's mom lived there.
01:49:40.000 I don't know what to tell you.
01:49:42.000 If you're going to Lockport, just go to Chicago and go to Villa Rosa Pizza on Archer Avenue.
01:49:49.000 It's near Archer and Central.
01:49:52.000 Maybe, yeah, I think it's right before Central.
01:49:54.000 And that's where I used to get pizza from when I was a little kid, and I'm pretty sure they're still there.
01:49:58.000 Well, cool.
01:49:59.000 Yeah, Villa Rosa Pizza.
01:50:00.000 They are still there, because I was going to go there, but then I didn't end up in Chicago for long enough, and I just went to the Arden's.
01:50:05.000 You checked it out, though?
01:50:06.000 You looked it up?
01:50:07.000 I looked it up, yeah, and it was open.
01:50:09.000 Yeah, when I was little, whenever we would order, whenever my school or my family or anybody would order pizza, it was always, there's other places, there's Danny's, and there's Obby's, but it was always Villa Rosa.
01:50:18.000 Like, so my school would do pizza day or whatever, and it would be from Villa Rosa.
01:50:22.000 Because they were, I guess they would like put so much sausage on it.
01:50:25.000 I was never, I always liked pepperoni.
01:50:26.000 But they were like, people loved it.
01:50:28.000 And it's Chicago tavern style.
01:50:31.000 There's some ad, I think it's Pizza Hut, that is like, hey, you guys let out the secret that Tavern Style is Chicago's real pizza for something.
01:50:38.000 What?
01:50:39.000 We had just had this conversation, like, you know, like... Pizza Hut did an ad about that?
01:50:43.000 I think it's Pizza Hut.
01:50:43.000 I don't know.
01:50:44.000 I just got it, like, an ad for it on YouTube where they were saying, like, you know, because everyone said, you were telling me, like, it's not actually Deep Dish, it's Tavern Style.
01:50:50.000 That's that's the one that...
01:50:51.000 I feel like Deep Dish is Chicago style, but if you are living in Chicago and you order a pizza, it's going to be Chicago Tavern style, which is thin crust, flat, and it's cut in squares, and it's got triangles in each corner.
01:51:03.000 I always loved the corners.
01:51:05.000 Anyways, I just saw the ad from some chain company saying like, you let out this secret, and I was thinking, I just learned about this.
01:51:11.000 Maybe it was directed at you, literally.
01:51:13.000 Stop talking about this on that podcast!
01:51:17.000 I just want more people to know of the deliciousness that is Chicago's Tavern-Style Pizza.
01:51:21.000 S.A.
01:51:21.000 Federale says, shout out to Gina Carano.
01:51:23.000 Nobody will believe my Twitter account got nuked for the same reason Laura Loomer's did.
01:51:29.000 Before that, I reached deep down, basically told Gina she was a light in the dark for all of us.
01:51:34.000 Her name has a candle after ever since.
01:51:36.000 It's crazy that Gina Carano was on track to be like a megastar.
01:51:40.000 And she's such an amazing and kind, gentle person.
01:51:43.000 I mean, she's like one of those bright spot in the universe people.
01:51:46.000 She was in Deadpool, the first one.
01:51:47.000 The movie was huge.
01:51:48.000 And then she's in Mandalorian.
01:51:49.000 The show was huge.
01:51:50.000 She was on track.
01:51:51.000 And then they lied about what she said.
01:51:55.000 She said, hey, don't demonize your neighbor.
01:51:56.000 And then they were like, she's saying conservatives are like crazy thing to say.
01:51:59.000 Nuts.
01:52:02.000 But she defeated Disney's motion to dismiss.
01:52:04.000 Which is amazing.
01:52:05.000 So that's bad news for Disney, because I think we might move to Discovery.
01:52:09.000 And I'm willing to bet there's going to be messages at Disney where they're just like, well, I just plain don't like conservatives, so fire her or something like that.
01:52:16.000 Either that or they're going to settle.
01:52:17.000 And she could ideally get, if they did settle, I would hope that she gets enough money that she can do some of her own projects.
01:52:23.000 Yeah, that'd be good.
01:52:24.000 What I love about this story is she fought back against cancel culture, and you so very rarely see that of people.
01:52:30.000 They get cancelled, quote-unquote, or attempted cancellation, and they cower in the corner like, oh my goodness, like, I'm scared, I'm just gonna do this.
01:52:36.000 Well, it's not easy.
01:52:36.000 It's not, no, not at all, no.
01:52:37.000 But she was courageous and actually did this and fought back and, you know, slapped him, and this is what happened, and it's great that she had this victory here, so.
01:52:45.000 Raymond G. Maga Stanley Jr.
01:52:48.000 says, Maga, sorry, it's Maga, everybody.
01:52:51.000 I have a family reunion this weekend, lots of Dems.
01:52:53.000 I look forward to their talking points they got from NBC, ABC, etc.
01:52:58.000 Will I be invited back next year?
01:53:01.000 He's trying not to have to get invited back.
01:53:04.000 Maybe we could have like, I don't know, Hannah Clare, if you or Elad wanted to put together like the ultimate show this to your family video.
01:53:12.000 And it's not a partisan thing.
01:53:13.000 It's just like, here's the media saying Kamala is the border czar.
01:53:18.000 Here's them now saying she was never the border czar.
01:53:20.000 So just basically showing how the media lies about everything and you can't figure out what's real.
01:53:24.000 And then all you do is you take that video and you go to your friends and family and say,
01:53:27.000 I don't know about none of all that and I'm not here to argue politics, but check out this video.
01:53:31.000 And then be like, I don't know what to believe.
01:53:33.000 That's like Brandon Strocker talks about that when he did the walk away thing and he said he really hated Trump and
01:53:40.000 then he saw the video.
01:53:41.000 He was trying to prove someone wrong.
01:53:43.000 Yeah, that's right.
01:53:44.000 Someone said that Trump didn't actually mock a disabled reporter and he's like, are you kidding?
01:53:48.000 We've all seen it.
01:53:49.000 So I'm going to pull the video up and prove it.
01:53:50.000 And then he watched the full video and was like, oh, he wasn't mocking a disabled reporter.
01:53:53.000 I met two people last week in Pantherina, in that media space, walking around who were red-pilled because they tried to do research to say that Trump was racist.
01:54:03.000 And did the research and proved themselves wrong.
01:54:05.000 Yeah.
01:54:05.000 And they were like, I'm here because of that.
01:54:07.000 And I was like, wow, what, like they voted against him in 2020, like very recently and try to do research for their shows.
01:54:12.000 Like these are reporters and had become red pilled because of that.
01:54:15.000 So just do your own research.
01:54:16.000 Cause the other thing too, is it makes you start to wonder what else they're lying about.
01:54:19.000 Like they, you know, the Democrats always say that Trump is anti LGBT and he had the first openly gay cabinet member in Rick Grinnell.
01:54:27.000 Yeah.
01:54:27.000 And he's the first presidential candidate to support gay marriage before Barack Obama opposed it.
01:54:35.000 He said, we shouldn't do this.
01:54:36.000 We should have civil unions.
01:54:37.000 We shouldn't have gay marriage.
01:54:38.000 Hillary Clinton still opposed it in 2016.
01:54:41.000 That was funny.
01:54:42.000 And they're like, we want Hillary.
01:54:43.000 Like she literally is not even now.
01:54:43.000 She's for gay rights.
01:54:46.000 And she just wants to bomb kids.
01:54:48.000 Yeah.
01:54:48.000 Yeah.
01:54:49.000 Kid bombers.
01:54:50.000 All right.
01:54:50.000 Kaylee Baloney says, Tim, we need espresso beans from Casper Coffee.
01:54:55.000 Perfect name for it.
01:54:56.000 Speed Freedom Blend.
01:54:57.000 Just put an American flag on the bag.
01:54:58.000 We have Focus with Mr. Bocas.
01:55:01.000 The bags have been designed and it should be coming soon.
01:55:03.000 And we're very excited for this one in memory of Mr. Bocas.
01:55:06.000 And then once that comes out, what we're going to do is we're going to do like an end all Mr. Bocas pumpkin spice experience thing where we're going to sell it at just like cost or whatever.
01:55:15.000 And just there, there you go.
01:55:16.000 There's no more of them.
01:55:18.000 We, uh, we were planning on discontinuing it, but then we accidentally ordered more.
01:55:23.000 Good job.
01:55:25.000 Yeah, because it's like the order form is just like you put in numbers, like you don't actually type it out.
01:55:28.000 So it's like, we're going to order groups 1, 3, 5, whatever, something like that.
01:55:32.000 And then it's just like, okay, we got an extra thousand bags.
01:55:34.000 And I was like, oh, someone came to me and said, oh, we ordered more.
01:55:37.000 And I was like, whatever.
01:55:40.000 But then we're discontinuing that one and then we're gonna do, uh... I think it's someone on staff who just really loves Mr. Bocas and doesn't want his legacy to go.
01:55:47.000 But we're doing the focus with Mr. Bocas.
01:55:49.000 Maybe they only like fall, Mr. Bocas.
01:55:51.000 I suppose.
01:55:52.000 But, uh, you know, that'll be coming soon.
01:55:56.000 Boosted Yogi says, imagine Trump becoming the highest-paid TikToker.
01:56:00.000 Ooh.
01:56:01.000 Could be.
01:56:01.000 He could be.
01:56:02.000 I don't think TikTokers make that much money off TikTok though.
01:56:04.000 I don't think they do either.
01:56:06.000 I know people who are like, I make money on this platform, like, I don't know, man.
01:56:09.000 I don't think so.
01:56:10.000 So someone mentioned, like, aren't we banned?
01:56:12.000 We were banned, but the way TikTok works is you get banned, you just make a new account.
01:56:16.000 And so I think we've got like two different accounts for me personally and then for the show.
01:56:20.000 And it's just, there's, we just don't get anything from it.
01:56:23.000 Like with Facebook, you make money.
01:56:25.000 Yeah.
01:56:26.000 Facebook's actually not that bad.
01:56:27.000 Uh, you can make good money on Facebook.
01:56:29.000 Uh, some, some people make ridiculous sums of money on Facebook.
01:56:32.000 It's crazy.
01:56:33.000 We don't, we make a little bit.
01:56:34.000 Uh, YouTube's really good.
01:56:35.000 YouTube's probably the best.
01:56:37.000 Um, in terms of, well, no, like in all seriousness, iTunes is the highest, uh, conversion, highest CPM.
01:56:45.000 So when you're selling ads.
01:56:46.000 It makes sense what you say when you just listen to a podcast.
01:56:48.000 You just put it on, you don't stop listening to it.
01:56:50.000 I listen to podcasts when I'm like cleaning up the house or whatever and I don't go rush and find the thing to zap forward.
01:56:59.000 Brett Russell says, your audio has been very low since you went to the RNC.
01:57:04.000 I like listening to you when I drive and on my phone while I data input, I have to crank my car volume in my phone.
01:57:09.000 It's really hard to hear.
01:57:11.000 I am looking right now at the levels and we are currently in the red, just about at like minus four decibels.
01:57:18.000 So that's actually, you know, we're in the red zone.
01:57:20.000 What's that mean?
01:57:22.000 It means any louder and...
01:57:26.000 Yeah, so.
01:57:27.000 I don't know, man.
01:57:29.000 Maybe it's your car?
01:57:30.000 Let's see if other people say the same thing, and then we'll hit it.
01:57:33.000 We'll hit the computer with a hammer.
01:57:35.000 You'll investigate yourself and come back and say you did nothing wrong?
01:57:37.000 No, percussive maintenance.
01:57:38.000 We'll hit until it fixes the audio.
01:57:43.000 What have we here?
01:57:43.000 What have we here?
01:57:46.000 Dom says, go to Trump's Insta.
01:57:47.000 That's where you'll see Gen Z humor.
01:57:49.000 Why?
01:57:49.000 Is he posting stuff?
01:57:51.000 Or is it just the comments section?
01:57:53.000 What's his?
01:57:53.000 Real Donald Trump?
01:57:55.000 Oh, I see.
01:57:57.000 Real Donald Trump.
01:57:58.000 What's he posting?
01:57:59.000 He posted a video of Kamala Harris.
01:58:01.000 What is this?
01:58:02.000 Kamala Harris is a failure.
01:58:04.000 And, uh, what, let's see.
01:58:06.000 Here we go.
01:58:07.000 This is a Gen Z person voting for Trump.
01:58:11.000 Okay.
01:58:12.000 Here's another person.
01:58:13.000 Trump.
01:58:14.000 Uh-huh.
01:58:16.000 Uh, here's what looks like some kind of porn star.
01:58:19.000 Trump.
01:58:20.000 This is a Gen Z female.
01:58:21.000 She says, the party that can't even define what a woman is, wants you to vote for a woman.
01:58:25.000 Make it make sense.
01:58:27.000 You can't.
01:58:29.000 They can't.
01:58:29.000 All right, we'll grab a couple more here.
01:58:30.000 What do we got?
01:58:32.000 Aridus Industries says he's on right-wing social media.
01:58:35.000 You know there are feds in there.
01:58:37.000 A fed befriends this lonely loser and gives him ideas, visits his house.
01:58:40.000 The social media site might be the connection.
01:58:43.000 Interesting.
01:58:44.000 Jeremy Rutledge says, shout out to the great state of Alabama.
01:58:47.000 Moving here was the best choice I ever made.
01:58:49.000 If you want to get fit and train your firearm, visit Common Ground Training in Calera.
01:58:53.000 Is that how you pronounce it?
01:58:53.000 Calera?
01:58:54.000 Calera.
01:58:55.000 There you go.
01:58:56.000 All are welcome.
01:58:58.000 They have tons of experience.
01:58:59.000 There you go.
01:59:01.000 Katoth Swiss says, there's no way Libby registered in 1993.
01:59:04.000 You want to defend your claim, Libby?
01:59:07.000 I'm pretty sure it was 94.
01:59:10.000 And then it was 96 was the election, right?
01:59:11.000 Yeah.
01:59:12.000 Yeah, no, I didn't register until, okay, so I went to college and I didn't register to vote then, and then I moved off campus and I registered to vote when I moved off campus, which must have been, you're right, it wasn't 1993, it was 1996.
01:59:27.000 When you registered?
01:59:30.000 When I registered.
01:59:30.000 I was 18, I turned 18 in 1993, but I didn't register until 96.
01:59:36.000 Why?
01:59:36.000 Just because you were like, I'm not feeling it, I'm busy?
01:59:38.000 What do I care?
01:59:40.000 And then my mom was like, you need to vote!
01:59:42.000 And I was like, oh my god.
01:59:43.000 I wish your 18-year-old self could see you now, like the one that was like, I'm just gonna be an artist and there are plays, and now you're like... You know what?
01:59:49.000 My 18-year-old self would have been like, alright, fine.
01:59:52.000 It's fine.
01:59:53.000 Let's grab one more.
01:59:55.000 At least I still like your clothes.
01:59:56.000 It's fine.
01:59:58.000 We'll grab one more here.
01:59:59.000 We have...
02:00:01.000 Asa?
02:00:02.000 Is that how you pronounce it?
02:00:03.000 Please look up book Kamala Harris and the Future of America by Caleb Maupin.
02:00:09.000 Huge censorship campaign pulled off Amazon.
02:00:12.000 Online site started failing all payments.
02:00:14.000 We need to get the word out.
02:00:15.000 No idea.
02:00:15.000 Interesting.
02:00:16.000 But my friends, I will tell you what, we're gonna go to the members only show.
02:00:19.000 That's what we're going to do.
02:00:20.000 So smash that like button.
02:00:22.000 One like equals one FKH.
02:00:24.000 It doesn't really work.
02:00:25.000 I don't like it.
02:00:26.000 We'll figure something out.
02:00:28.000 You can follow me on X and Instagram at TimCast.
02:00:31.000 Over at TimCast.com, we're going to have the members-only calling show where you guys can call and hang out, talk to us and our guests.
02:00:37.000 That'll be up in a couple minutes.
02:00:39.000 Share the show with all your friends.
02:00:40.000 Smash the like button.
02:00:42.000 And, uh, well, you know, do you want to shout anything out?

02:00:45.000 You can buy the book.
02:00:46.000 Sign copies at brylandbook.com.
02:00:48.000 And I just appreciate the opportunity.
02:00:49.000 This is a lot of fun.
02:00:49.000 It's a lot better than network TV.
02:00:51.000 This is great.
02:00:51.000 Yeah.
02:00:52.000 We didn't even pay him to say that.
02:00:53.000 They didn't.
02:00:54.000 I was not paid anything.
02:00:56.000 I'm Libby Emmons.
02:00:57.000 You can find me on Twitter at Libby Emmons.
02:00:59.000 And of course, check out everything we're doing every day at thepostmillennial.com and humanevents.com.
02:01:05.000 And just a shout-out to Libby.
02:01:06.000 She gave me my first opportunity when I wanted to write my first op-ed.
02:01:09.000 That's correct.
02:01:09.000 And they published it, and she took a chance on me.
02:01:10.000 Yeah, we published it a couple years ago.
02:01:11.000 That's right.
02:01:12.000 We were your first.
02:01:14.000 They were the first.
02:01:15.000 Nobody else would publish it.
02:01:15.000 I take full credit for Mr. Ryland Hollyhand.
