00:02:32.000 So, the progressive won in Michigan last night.
00:02:36.000 It is still a little too close to call, but doesn't matter because the establishment Democrat called and conceded.
00:02:42.000 So, hey, open and shut case, right?
00:02:44.000 Now, I'm going to go ahead and argue that's actually good news for Republicans because the polling that we've seen from many of the liberal institutional media outlets is that about two to one, when facing a socialist or progressive candidate, moderates will choose to go Republican.
00:02:59.000 But here's where it gets real interesting it is now being reported.
00:03:03.000 Simply because, so Tucker Carlson has this meeting with, you know, Massey, MTG, and a few others, Joe Kent, and this is taken to mean that Tucker is preparing a third party or a presidential run in 2028.
00:03:18.000 We don't know for sure, but it is being reported by numerous outlets that it appears Tucker is preparing to run for office, which is funny because he's hinted at it several times.
00:03:27.000 Many people have predicted that he might, and now the reporting has finally landed.
00:03:32.000 Tucker 2028.
00:03:34.000 I mean, people were talking about him being the VP back before JD Vance got chosen.
00:03:39.000 So we shall see.
00:03:40.000 We're going to talk about that.
00:03:41.000 Plus, we've got a bunch of really interesting stories.
00:03:43.000 One that was kind of overlooked in the past week.
00:03:45.000 In Japan, people are protesting the construction of a mosque.
00:03:50.000 Now, that is interesting.
00:03:51.000 I watched this video because Japanese people are so, like, I don't know, what's the right, studious and calm. 1.00
00:03:58.000 To see this video of people just violent rioting, just angry over a mosque, I thought was particularly interesting. 0.91
00:04:04.000 And then I thought to myself, why are they building a mosque in Japan? 0.86
00:04:09.000 This is crazy. 1.00
00:04:09.000 We'll talk about it and more. 1.00

00:06:23.000 Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more is Jack Posobiec.
00:06:26.000 What's going on, man?
00:06:27.000 Been a little while, been some time.
00:06:29.000 I think the last time I was here, you weren't even here.
00:06:32.000 So I said, Tim's back.
00:06:33.000 I got to come back.
00:06:34.000 We got to bring, we got to get the whole crew together because it turns out that there's a socialist revolution going on in the United States.
00:06:41.000 You can see it in Wisconsin.
00:06:42.000 You can see it in Michigan last night.
00:06:43.000 And it's like, wow, who could have possibly seen, who could possibly have predicted the rise of communism and socialism in the United States of America?
00:06:53.000 Or literally all of us, but only one of us wrote the book.
00:06:56.000 Here it is, Ian.
00:06:58.000 Here it is, Ian.
00:06:59.000 Yes, it is the book, Unhuman Secrecy of Communist Revolutions and How to Crush Them and.
00:07:05.000 Look, guys, you know, I wish I was wrong.
00:07:07.000 With voting, right?
00:07:08.000 But here we are.
00:07:09.000 You know, voting is one of the tactics.
00:07:11.000 There are many.
00:07:13.000 Voting.
00:07:14.000 And look, you know, this is something where, and obviously we'll talk about it on the show, but, you know, this is two years ago, we put this book out and we said if this is not heeded, then we are going to get into a bad place in our country.
00:07:28.000 And unfortunately, I think we're getting closer to that place.
00:07:30.000 We've got the president, we've got Trump, and he is doing a lot.
00:07:35.000 But at the same time, these guys are coming.
00:07:36.000 They are absolutely coming and they are coming.
00:07:39.000 Getting feral.
00:07:40.000 Yep.
00:07:41.000 The sentiment is bubbling.
00:07:42.000 I feel it as well, Jack.
00:07:43.000 Yeah.
00:07:44.000 I decided to wear these synthetic Diceanin demon goggles.
00:07:48.000 Diceanin demon goggles. 0.78
00:07:50.000 Diceanin.
00:07:51.000 Breaking out the red wavelengths out of it.
00:07:53.000 Dicean?
00:07:53.000 Are they Dicean goggles?
00:07:54.000 I'm not sure yet.
00:07:55.000 Vacuum.
00:07:56.000 But basically, what we're going to be talking about tonight is borderline demonic.
00:07:59.000 I just want to make sure that no one insults me.
00:08:02.000 That's why I've got this right here.
00:08:04.000 Yeah.
00:08:05.000 We'll go easy and slow, Jack.
00:08:07.000 I mean, you talked demonic.
00:08:08.000 I saw that Paris Hilton video last night.
00:08:10.000 I didn't watch it.
00:08:11.000 Jesus.
00:08:12.000 We pulled up not knowing what it was and played on the uncensored portion of the show.
00:08:16.000 Oh, wow.
00:08:16.000 You really did.
00:08:17.000 Well, on the uncensored portion.
00:08:18.000 Yeah, yeah, but still, I mean, that's rough.
00:08:21.000 I mean, that's not a demonic possession.
00:08:22.000 It's real.
00:08:23.000 I was like, oh, it's an X video.
00:08:23.000 It was just on X.
00:08:24.000 And I played.
00:08:25.000 Yeah, there were like three of them.
00:08:25.000 I went, oh, my God.
00:08:27.000 Yeah, there were three of them.
00:08:28.000 We started on TikTok.
00:08:28.000 It was fun to watch.
00:08:29.000 And that, yeah, that was, I mean, but no, you're 100%.
00:08:32.000 Demonic activity is absolutely on the rise.
00:08:34.000 I think all of these things are connected.
00:08:36.000 Didn't he say that he thought demons were after him a while ago?
00:08:39.000 Someone mentioned that.
00:08:41.000 Uh, wouldn't it be clear that he was clearly right if he said that?
00:08:43.000 I thought he had said like he recently had some kind of like transcendent, uh, like God reaching out to him thing, which made it even weirder.
00:08:51.000 Maybe it wasn't God, yeah.
00:08:53.000 I think in order to destroy demons, you have to become a demon for a brief moment.
00:08:57.000 And so they're like, don't don't fight demons too much because you'll get lost in it.
00:09:01.000 So I just want to make sure that as we pass through hell, you don't want to fight demons without invoking Christ.
00:09:08.000 So if you're trying to fight demons on your own, then you're what you're doing by engaging with the demons, you're letting the demon in.
00:09:14.000 Ian can do it.
00:09:15.000 You know what Ian reminds me of wearing those glasses?
00:09:20.000 There's a guy.
00:09:20.000 It's literally just a picture of Ian.
00:09:22.000 I don't know.
00:09:23.000 That's how I feel.
00:09:25.000 What are we looking at?
00:09:26.000 It's just a picture of Ian.
00:09:27.000 Two monocles.
00:09:28.000 It's the bad guy from Men in Black 3.
00:09:30.000 Oh, yes.
00:09:31.000 It is.
00:09:32.000 Yeah.
00:09:32.000 Oh, wow.
00:09:32.000 Jermaine Clement played him.
00:09:34.000 That's what Charles was saying before the show, too.
00:09:36.000 That you looked like the guy from.
00:09:37.000 He's identifying this guy.
00:09:39.000 And when he takes his glasses off, of course, he has deep soulless black pits where his eyes should be.
00:09:43.000 Doesn't he have like teeth or something where his eyes are?
00:09:45.000 Yeah, and he has a little spider monster that can crawl out of his hand.
00:09:49.000 Wicked.
00:09:50.000 Yeah. 0.98
00:09:50.000 Fortunately, I'm just pretending to be like that. 0.98
00:09:53.000 I'm here to help.
00:09:53.000 Are you really?
00:09:54.000 Yeah, dude.
00:09:55.000 I'm here to help.
00:09:56.000 I think because, okay, the human aura, I believe it's a real thing.
00:09:59.000 What I think it is is the light refracting through the gas that's going in and out of your skin.
00:10:03.000 You know, your skin's porous.
00:10:05.000 So when light refracts through it, you see a color depending on how oxygenated your body is because the gas will be different oxygenation levels.
00:10:11.000 The more oxygenated, the more it is.
00:10:13.000 And when you open up a certain chakra point, a blue mist, a blue aura comes off because that's your sweat evaporating.
00:10:19.000 Hardcore.
00:10:20.000 And then when you open the final gate of death, it turns red because it's blood.
00:10:24.000 Oh, I guess that's one way to look at it.
00:10:27.000 But the problem is, if your aura is red, other people will look like they have red auras.
00:10:31.000 You die once you open the gate of death.
00:10:33.000 It's when it goes black.
00:10:34.000 That's really dangerous.
00:10:36.000 Did you guys introduce yourselves?
00:10:37.000 I'm Phil.
00:10:37.000 Hi.
00:10:38.000 Yeah, Carter here and Ian.
00:10:38.000 What's up?
00:10:40.000 It's probably more interesting, to be honest.
00:10:42.000 Here's the news from Wired.com MAGA is in turmoil over Tucker Carlson's possible 2028 presidential bid.
00:10:50.000 I don't think they're in turmoil. 0.85
00:10:51.000 What's these ridiculous? 0.94
00:10:52.000 I just, guys. 0.98
00:10:53.000 There's so much turmoil.
00:10:55.000 There's so much turmoil.
00:10:56.000 Everybody's loving.
00:10:57.000 Here's the post.
00:10:58.000 Oh.
00:10:59.000 Tucker says MAGA was betrayed.
00:11:01.000 We all were.
00:11:02.000 It's time for a new path forward.
00:11:03.000 More tomorrow night at 6 p.m. Eastern.
00:11:05.000 Marjorie Taylor Greene posted this.
00:11:07.000 We said no more foreign wars.
00:11:08.000 We meant it and supported Donald Trump because he made that promise.
00:11:11.000 But he's betrayed us all.
00:11:12.000 Our commitment is America first for all Americans, right, left, and center.
00:11:15.000 The movement has begun.
00:11:17.000 You know what?
00:11:18.000 I'm ready to just say no to everybody.
00:11:20.000 I'm just done.
00:11:21.000 Donald Trump fired 59 Tomahawk missiles into Syria in his first term.
00:11:25.000 Miriam Adelson funded to what, like $100, $150 million Trump's second run.
00:11:29.000 These people are all lying.
00:11:30.000 I'm just sick of it.
00:11:32.000 I'm sick of the pretend.
00:11:34.000 Like, every one of those people knows exactly what was going on with Trump's campaign and what was happening in the Middle East.
00:11:41.000 Don't get me wrong.
00:11:42.000 Nobody thought we were going to be entrenched in this long drawn out Hormuz conflict.
00:11:47.000 I get that.
00:11:48.000 But the idea that it was not in your mind, oh, we're betrayed to heaven.
00:11:52.000 How could this have happened?
00:11:53.000 It's like Tucker and his brother on his show, he said, Tucker says, I'm sorry, I didn't know.
00:11:59.000 And his brother says, maybe that money from Miriam Adelson meant something.
00:12:01.000 And then Tucker goes, because they all knew.
00:12:04.000 What Miriam Adelson's money meant.
00:12:06.000 So spare me the lies and the manipulations from everybody.
00:12:09.000 Liberals doing it, they're doing it.
00:12:11.000 I'm not interested in living your fake reality.
00:12:13.000 Tucker posted a video, an hour and 40 minute video at 8.
00:12:17.000 So this happened.
00:12:19.000 He said 6 p.m. last night.
00:12:21.000 So that would be today.
00:12:22.000 So he posted it last night.
00:12:24.000 So what was the announcement?
00:12:27.000 It just went up at 8 minutes.
00:12:29.000 It just went up?
00:12:30.000 Yeah, it went up just now.
00:12:31.000 It went up at.
00:12:31.000 His announcement?
00:12:33.000 I don't know what it is.
00:12:34.000 It's an hour and 40 minute video.
00:12:36.000 It's a tempstick.
00:12:37.000 Our political system was collapsed.
00:12:39.000 Alice is looting.
00:12:39.000 Into prayer.
00:12:40.000 Change is coming.
00:12:41.000 Here's what America should do.
00:12:43.000 I think that it was paywalled at 6 p.m. and now this is the public announcement.
00:12:47.000 Indeed.
00:12:48.000 Which is that he might run for president?
00:12:50.000 I don't know.
00:12:51.000 Thank God his announcement of what America should be is sponsored by Angel Studios.
00:12:56.000 Angel Studios.
00:12:57.000 And a shout out to AmericanFinancing.net who also sponsors this show.
00:13:01.000 We have no beef with them.
00:13:02.000 We like American.
00:13:03.000 The whole like America's crumbling, blah, blah, blah.
00:13:05.000 Firstly, fix the economy.
00:13:06.000 If you want to fix it, stop complaining.
00:13:08.000 But Jack, what do you think about this Middle Eastern conflict? 0.51
00:13:10.000 Do you think it's inevitable and that it has to happen or do you think it's a bland mistake? 1.00
00:13:14.000 Which this Iranian that's inevitable. 1.00
00:13:17.000 No, I mean, do you think it's inevitable? 1.00
00:13:19.000 Do you think are you saying that I think it's inevitable that the United States and Iran get into a conflict?
00:13:24.000 If like Tucker came in and was like, We're gonna fix it now, we're withdrawing all of our forces from the Iranian front, it wouldn't fix anything.
00:13:29.000 I don't think it would fix anything either.
00:13:31.000 I just wonder what your take on it is, too.
00:13:33.000 Um, well, I mean, you know, 2028 is a long time away, so I don't, I have to imagine that whatever's going on now would be quite different, you know, a year and a half from now.
00:13:44.000 If Trump were to escalate, for example, we could be in a massive ground war, for example, in 2028.
00:13:51.000 I don't think that's going to happen.
00:13:52.000 I'm just saying that, you know, it could.
00:13:54.000 But it seems to me like the deal is probably going to be what's going to happen here.
00:13:59.000 And there may be a new traffic separation scheme where there's like one Omani route to the south, like a northern route and a southern route or something like that.
00:14:06.000 But, you know, I don't think that, I certainly don't think that hostilities are inevitable.
00:14:11.000 No.
00:14:13.000 You mean like a northern and southern trade route south?
00:14:16.000 Yep.
00:14:17.000 The waterway?
00:14:18.000 Yeah, because it, so there's territorial waters there.
00:14:21.000 If you look at it, one is Iran, one is Oman.
00:14:24.000 And of course, it's been governed by the United Nations Law of the Sea Convention.
00:14:29.000 And so, as an international transit waterway.
00:14:33.000 And so, but effectively, what's been going on?
00:14:35.000 So, effectively, in the past, it was just sort of open, right?
00:14:38.000 But there was only dredged in the center because the large tankers weren't able to get through it, like the large hull, especially when it's full.
00:14:44.000 So, it's going to be lower.
00:14:45.000 And so, with the super tankers.
00:14:46.000 But now, the Omanis have kind of cleared out a route that's completely to the south.
00:14:52.000 And because they call it the Hugging Oman route.
00:14:55.000 And the reason that that matters is because it doesn't stray into Iranian waters at all.
00:14:59.000 And so they're saying, hey, if this thing doesn't go into Iranian waters, what is your claim for messing with the shipping?
00:15:07.000 Well, Iran, of course, is saying, well, we want to control all shipping and we want to control all trade through that.
00:15:12.000 And so what seems to be happening, at least as far as I know, I don't have any direct information as to the current negotiations that are taking place.
00:15:23.000 But what seems to be happening is this sort of like dual route scenario, like you say, like a northern route, southern route.
00:15:30.000 Okay, well, that's extremely promising.
00:15:31.000 Thank you.
00:15:33.000 I hope so.
00:15:33.000 Yeah.
00:15:34.000 And by the way, that's also why oil futures went down, I think, to like $75 a barrel today.
00:15:40.000 Yep.
00:15:41.000 Because on the backs of these talks.
00:15:42.000 I applaud Tucker for announcing that he might be running if that's what he did, maybe in the future.
00:15:47.000 Well, I'd like to know what we're reacting to.
00:15:49.000 Yeah, before we say anything.
00:15:50.000 I fully support Joe Kent.
00:15:51.000 Well, I don't think that his podcast episode today is an announcement that he's running for office.
00:15:55.000 I'm kind of tongue in cheek.
00:15:56.000 If he announced he was running, I feel like that would have come out of the pace, actually.
00:16:00.000 No, no, it's just this has been the narrative for some time.
00:16:03.000 And with the photo from Marjorie Taylor Greene, the media is running with Tucker Carlson's preparing a bid.
00:16:07.000 No, no, no.
00:16:08.000 I know that, you know, it's been sort of out there, but.
00:16:11.000 This is probably laying the foundation for some kind of run or to be an advisor on someone's campaign.
00:16:19.000 But he's just laying out this is what I think should happen.
00:16:23.000 And it probably aligns with Massey and with Kent and with Marjorie Taylor Greene.
00:16:28.000 Because I actually thought it would be more likely that Massey would announce a run.
00:16:34.000 Like, I thought that would be more.
00:16:35.000 Yeah, I don't know.
00:16:37.000 Massey's not going to.
00:16:38.000 He doesn't have presidential X factor. 1.00
00:16:40.000 Who do you think?
00:16:41.000 I'm not saying that he should or shouldn't.
00:16:43.000 I'm just saying that he's been a politician.
00:16:45.000 He's run for office.
00:16:46.000 Tucker's never run for anything before.
00:16:49.000 So it just doesn't seem.
00:16:52.000 Who do you guys think actually would have the best chance?
00:16:55.000 The politician would be the one to do it.
00:17:01.000 Because I don't think Massey could win.
00:17:04.000 I think out of all of them, Tucker probably has the best chance because of name recognition.
00:17:09.000 Are you saying excluding JD Vance and Marco Rubio?
00:17:12.000 No, I'm talking about just the people that we're talking about.
00:17:15.000 Like, who could win?
00:17:17.000 Like, who could actually convince the American people?
00:17:19.000 Probably Tucker Carlson.
00:17:20.000 I would say that.
00:17:21.000 I mean, he's obviously a better communicator, but the thing is that elections never happen in a vacuum, right?
00:17:26.000 So if they're up against JD, there's no question.
00:17:30.000 Like, JD wins.
00:17:31.000 That's just obvious.
00:17:33.000 Do you think they win against Marco Rubio if they make it the weird?
00:17:36.000 The America First anti war and Marco Rubio's neocon?
00:17:40.000 I think ultimately the real question is does this create a Ross Perot situation?
00:17:45.000 So Ross Perot runs in 1992.
00:17:47.000 He gets about 18% of the vote.
00:17:49.000 And then that effectively blocks George H.W. Bush from re election.
00:17:54.000 And then Clinton gets in with having only won about 42%.
00:17:58.000 Or AOC gets in this time.
00:17:59.000 Which, well, yeah, yeah.
00:18:00.000 I'm just talking about 1992.
00:18:01.000 That Ross Perot thing was crazy.
00:18:03.000 Which, by the way, the Democrats never bring that up whenever they attack the Electoral College.
00:18:09.000 The fact that That the way that Bill Clinton won was not the popular vote.
00:18:13.000 He was way below 50%.
00:18:15.000 Yeah, but literally only almost 40%.
00:18:17.000 To your point, that is like the nightmare situation, right?
00:18:20.000 AOC is running, and whether people like her or not, whether people, obviously, I would never vote for her or whatever, but people are going to freak out. 0.99
00:18:27.000 But she's an extremely skilled politician and she's got a lot of charisma.
00:18:31.000 If she's running as the Democrat, and then you have to split the Republican ticket between Tucker's party and whoever is kind of the establishment or the MAGA candidate, however you want to conceive of it, I think that AOC runs away with it then.
00:18:46.000 I think I'll just throw out there, and I know we haven't really talked about him yet.
00:18:50.000 I don't know if we're going to in a separate topic or whatever, but I think that Abdul Al Sayed, I think that if he wins in November, he runs for president.
00:19:00.000 His name already is making me, and I'm not racist, but that just knowing how people think, hearing a guy named Abdul.
00:19:06.000 You literally have said you're a racist guy like Barack Hussein Obama.
00:19:09.000 No, he said his name was Hussein Obama.
00:19:11.000 Did you guys see in Vegas they mentioned that cop whose name was like Al Bed or something, and then everyone started booing?
00:19:11.000 I don't think he would have.
00:19:19.000 No, I didn't see.
00:19:20.000 There was a cop who got killed in line of duty the other day.
00:19:22.000 When they mentioned his name because it was an Arabic name, people started booing. 0.88
00:19:24.000 I don't want to talk crap about this guy, Jack, that you're talking about because he might be a phenomenal human being worth overriding. 0.74
00:19:30.000 My prejudice. 0.98
00:19:30.000 Well, I'd like to talk crap about him if I may. 0.98
00:19:33.000 Oh, you do? 0.99
00:19:34.000 Yeah.
00:19:34.000 What's his story?
00:19:35.000 What's this guy?
00:19:36.000 Well, he's a fake doctor for one. 0.97
00:19:38.000 A big old fake doctor. 0.95
00:19:38.000 Fake doctor. 0.95
00:19:39.000 Oh.
00:19:40.000 Well, yeah, he went to medical school.
00:19:42.000 If I have this down correctly, he went to medical school, but then never completed any of his residency requirements, never got a license, and kind of runs around portraying himself as a doctor, yet he never actually practiced as a doctor.
00:19:56.000 Huh.
00:19:57.000 He got his license, but he never practiced.
00:19:59.000 He didn't get a license.
00:20:00.000 Oh.
00:20:01.000 Because you have to do all this stuff.
00:20:03.000 You have to do the years of stuff.
00:20:04.000 You have to do years of additional stuff.
00:20:06.000 You can't just go to school and then not become a doctor.
00:20:08.000 It's like he finished the school and decided it was too much work for him because he's lazy and decided that he would kind of like go into politics.
00:20:14.000 It's totally going to be Rubio Vance versus Buttigieg AOC.
00:20:19.000 Yeah, I could see.
00:20:20.000 I do think that Buttigieg's name will be up there as someone's vice president.
00:20:25.000 It seems like he's making those moves.
00:20:27.000 But I just say that I don't discount.
00:20:30.000 A guy like El Syed, that if he wins for Senate, and keep in mind that we had a guy named Obama who won as a senator in the Midwest, and he'd only been there for two years, and he ran for president, and he won, and his name was.
00:20:44.000 When Obama got elected, I remember I was watching the TV, and what year was it?
00:20:51.000 It was like 2008.
00:20:52.000 2008.
00:20:53.000 No, no, it wasn't.
00:20:55.000 He didn't win the Senate in 2008.
00:20:56.000 He won the Senate in 2006.
00:20:59.000 And he famously spoke at the 2004 RNC.
00:21:02.000 At the 2006.
00:21:04.000 Election when he won, he was asked, Will you now run for president?
00:21:07.000 Literally, he had not been in federal elected office.
00:21:10.000 He had just gotten elected senator elect, and they were like, Will you run for president now?
00:21:14.000 It was very strange.
00:21:15.000 It was very strange.
00:21:16.000 Yeah, the media was just gushing, gushing over him.
00:21:19.000 I lived in Chicago in 2003 to 2005, and my roommate was like, He's going to be president one day.
00:21:24.000 In 2004, I was like, Who is this guy?
00:21:26.000 He's like, He's just so awesome, dude.
00:21:28.000 He's a community organizer.
00:21:29.000 He's going to be great.
00:21:30.000 Okay.
00:21:30.000 I'm like, Really?
00:21:31.000 Here's what I want to say to you, Jack.
00:21:33.000 We're going to say, we're going to say politics is completely fake, and everyone's lying. 0.98
00:21:37.000 Wait, are you telling me politics is faking gay? 0.99
00:21:39.000 Everyone. 0.98
00:21:40.000 What?
00:21:40.000 Right, left, upside of here.
00:21:41.000 With an H, dude.
00:21:42.000 I'll tell you why.
00:21:42.000 I want you to look at this here tweet from Chris Martinson.
00:21:45.000 Oh, I saw this tweet.
00:21:46.000 This was fun.
00:21:47.000 Jack Posobic says, I have a chart.
00:21:50.000 Immigration is going up, everything else is going down.
00:21:52.000 What an excellent chart. 1.00
00:21:53.000 And you are correct.
00:21:55.000 100%.
00:21:56.000 What an incredible chart.
00:21:57.000 It's a meme, it represents an idea.
00:21:59.000 It is not literal.
00:22:00.000 What did Chris Martinson say?
00:22:02.000 Why is it that Jack Posobic keeps conflating immigration with migration?
00:22:06.000 What does that mean?
00:22:09.000 I'm at a loss here.
00:22:12.000 I think he meant illegal immigration. 0.99
00:22:14.000 Well, so the point is.
00:22:15.000 I get what he means though, because so immigration inherently in the word, you would think, well, that's legal immigration because, of course, that means you've gone through a process. 0.77
00:22:25.000 Otherwise, it's an invasion. 0.90
00:22:26.000 You know, otherwise, the invasion.
00:22:27.000 So he's saying, so he's like, I don't know his voice, but I imagine it sounds like this.
00:22:31.000 It seems intentional or ignorant to the point that he should stop posting and dragging down the collective IQ, which is really interesting because actually it's mass migration that is dragging down the collective IQ of the United States.
00:22:42.000 Which is, well, to be fair, it's actually bringing up the average IQ.
00:22:46.000 Go on. 1.00
00:22:47.000 So when stupid people come in, The IQ is the average of the body. 1.00
00:22:53.000 So if you bring in, if you have 100 smart people and they can all like, so IQ is relative to the body itself. 1.00
00:23:00.000 So you have a group of people and we say their IQ relative to neighboring countries is 110.
00:23:08.000 Then you bring in a bunch of people who are 90 IQ, they go, oh, but wait, now the relative body itself, right?
00:23:17.000 So now what we have to do is we have to lower the standard to 100, repents the average.
00:23:22.000 100 is going to go down lower.
00:23:25.000 So, if you needed to be able to solve like a quadratic equation, which is not particularly difficult, I guess, but in order to have like a strong IQ, now it's like you have to know how to like water a plant.
00:23:36.000 And now it's like, hey, he put the star in the star hole.
00:23:39.000 That's 100 IQ.
00:23:40.000 Everyone in America's IQ goes up.
00:23:43.000 It's like when you go back and you look at those, you know, this was an eighth grade test in 1910.
00:23:49.000 And they're like, translate this into Greek.
00:23:49.000 Exactly.
00:23:52.000 Yeah.
00:23:53.000 You know, and it's kind of amazing.
00:23:55.000 No, and it's funny because.
00:23:58.000 Guys like Chris Martinson are totally ignorant of what's actually happening in reality. 1.00
00:24:05.000 Totally ignorant. 1.00
00:24:06.000 Stupid. 1.00
00:24:07.000 Because we are bringing in stupid people. 1.00
00:24:08.000 When he says you're dragging down the collective IQ, he's calling you very smart. 1.00
00:24:13.000 He's saying that you're so smart, your IQ is so high, it forces the average off.
00:24:20.000 I'm throwing the average off.
00:24:21.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:24:22.000 Shame on you.
00:24:23.000 So everyone's IQ number is going down because it's harder to maintain a high level of.
00:24:28.000 He doesn't actually understand how averages work.
00:24:29.000 I thought Chris.
00:24:31.000 Was very, very articulate and kind of a pioneer during COVID.
00:24:34.000 He was really outspoken.
00:24:35.000 No, he's fake.
00:24:35.000 It's all fake.
00:24:36.000 We had him on the show.
00:24:36.000 It's all fake.
00:24:37.000 I understand.
00:24:38.000 At least once.
00:24:38.000 I understand.
00:24:39.000 It's just, this is fake.
00:24:41.000 Like this Tucker Carlson world, it's all fake.
00:24:44.000 And I think Trump's in on it too.
00:24:45.000 I think it's all fake.
00:24:47.000 I'm in the car with Tucker.
00:24:48.000 Tucker calls Trump on the phone and they're laughing together and giggling.
00:24:51.000 Granted, that was a year and a half ago, but still, I mean, this is.
00:24:55.000 I will say that I've seen, and I don't know Chris.
00:24:58.000 I've never spoken to Chris.
00:24:59.000 And, you know, I mean, I can just tell his level of IQ by reading this.
00:25:04.000 And, and, But I will say though, I've been in like the Congress, right?
00:25:09.000 And in the Hall of Congress, when you go to where the media row is basically set up in the gallery, that you can see these, they'll all be standing next to each other, but one's on Fox, one's on CNN, one's on MSNBC.
00:25:24.000 And you can see these congressmen, congresswomen, whatever. 0.57
00:25:27.000 And they'll be on the shows and they're just blasting each other, just lighting each other up red meat, blue meat, right? 0.97
00:25:33.000 All the rest. 0.93
00:25:34.000 Then the camera, well, I guess blue soy.
00:25:37.000 And it's, and.
00:25:39.000 And then the cameras go off, and they're like, hey, it's so good to see you.
00:25:43.000 How are you doing?
00:25:44.000 And they kind of hug, and you're like, what just happened?
00:25:48.000 It's like the curtain comes down.
00:25:49.000 We'll have Brian Shapiro on the show, which is notably hostile dialogue sometimes.
00:25:56.000 Shapiro is known for being aggressive as hell.
00:25:58.000 Tim and Phil blow up at each other.
00:26:00.000 Afterwards, we'll all hang out.
00:26:01.000 Well, a bunch of us.
00:26:02.000 But we're transparent about it.
00:26:04.000 It's not like we pretend to hate each other and then hang out.
00:26:07.000 No, but like the thing is, when we're sitting at this table with someone like Brian and he's saying Trump did a bad thing that Trump did not do and we're arguing, when the show's over, we're no longer talking about that.
00:26:17.000 So the temperature comes down.
00:26:19.000 However, I will stress, then I will be sitting at a poker table with Brian and it's almost the same thing.
00:26:24.000 He'll be at the table, like, you know, like I rolled the punches.
00:26:27.000 So, like, when we're on the show, I'll laugh at jokes.
00:26:28.000 I don't care if you make fun of Trump.
00:26:29.000 It's just what is true is and what is fake is fake.
00:26:32.000 So when he says something that's not true, like, we're sitting at the poker table and he starts talking about gun control for which he knows nothing about, it's the same thing.
00:26:38.000 We're, we're, we're, Edit again.
00:26:40.000 I blocked him on X.
00:26:42.000 Again.
00:26:42.000 He said he loves you, by the way.
00:26:44.000 I just think, you know, every day I watch this stuff, and it was interesting during COVID because a lot of podcasts had nothing to talk about because nothing was happening.
00:26:54.000 Because we were all locked down, it was the same story almost every single day.
00:26:57.000 And now we're getting that same thing again, and people are so desperate for there to be something to talk about.
00:27:02.000 It's this.
00:27:03.000 I'll tell you what's really much more interesting.
00:27:05.000 I was watching body camera videos today.
00:27:07.000 I love watching body cameras.
00:27:09.000 It was like some dudes on a motorcycle were evading the cops, and then when the cops, he like, Fled the cops and then came back and taunted them, then sped off again.
00:27:09.000 Yeah.
00:27:19.000 And then the helicopter came out and then he was screwed. 0.91
00:27:21.000 And it turns out he's like a 16 year old kid. 0.94
00:27:22.000 And he's screaming, Call my mom.
00:27:24.000 And they're like, Nope, you're going to prison.
00:27:26.000 Asmund Gold watches a ton of those now.
00:27:28.000 He reacts to a ton of those.
00:27:30.000 People used to say that.
00:27:31.000 Asmund Gold?
00:27:32.000 Well, yeah, because it's way more interesting to watch regular people like falling on skis than it is to talk about.
00:27:39.000 Like, listen, this is my point.
00:27:41.000 This beef, these arguments, it's make believe because they're trying to convince you to watch them.
00:27:47.000 That's all.
00:27:49.000 I've been into farming.
00:27:50.000 I know it's like, what?
00:27:52.000 But you planted anything?
00:27:53.000 Some microgreens, some broccoli, grew deliciously.
00:27:55.000 I got an idea.
00:27:56.000 No, no, I mean, I figured it out.
00:27:59.000 You know what we need to make? 0.91
00:28:00.000 We need to make body camera videos, but it's like the cops are chickens and the criminals are chickens.
00:28:05.000 And so you'll get that voice.
00:28:07.000 You ever watch those videos where it's like the true crime voice and it's like, Yeah, he's like narrating over the top.
00:28:10.000 It'll be like the police officers pulled the man over, but they didn't expect what would happen next.
00:28:16.000 And the car like peels out.
00:28:17.000 We got to make these.
00:28:18.000 And then it's like, it'll be like a chicken body camera and you'll go like, Bop, Yeah.
00:28:22.000 And then the other chicken will plot a knife and like swing it back.
00:28:24.000 Make West Virginia farming fun again, man.
00:28:27.000 If we can inspire the world to start farming, I mean, that's amazing.
00:28:29.000 Like, if you really want to heal the planet, can somebody AI make chicken cops?
00:28:34.000 You know why I love farming right now is because I've been so indoctrinated with instant gratification.
00:28:39.000 I'm so used to like push a button and see outcome that planting a seed and not seeing it for like a day, but it's still growing.
00:28:46.000 It's so slow, you know?
00:28:47.000 And there's this miraculous reward with patience and diligence.
00:28:53.000 That's no, that's what you're doing is you're rewiring your dopamine receptors.
00:28:57.000 He's not farming.
00:28:59.000 He's not even gardening.
00:29:01.000 No, but no, no, no.
00:29:03.000 But what I'm saying is there is a difference.
00:29:03.000 I get that.
00:29:06.000 There is a difference between being locked in on social media all day and looking for that instant gratification.
00:29:12.000 You're like, why is ChatGPT still loading?
00:29:15.000 Why is Grok still loading?
00:29:16.000 I need it now.
00:29:17.000 I need it now.
00:29:18.000 What do you mean that's my usage limit?
00:29:19.000 What?
00:29:20.000 Turn up the data center.
00:29:22.000 I need this immediately.
00:29:23.000 Why would you render versus having the patience?
00:29:27.000 That it takes for a slow, gradual release of dopamine.
00:29:32.000 I personally don't have the patience for gardening or farming. 1.00
00:29:35.000 My wife loves gardening because she's more into nurturing and she's more into growing things. 0.91
00:29:40.000 And so, you know, that's why when one of her flowers blooms, she has a huge response to it.
00:29:47.000 And it is more fulfilling than just like pulling up an image of a flower on a phone because it's real.
00:29:53.000 My mom has been, my mom grew up.
00:29:53.000 Yeah.
00:29:57.000 Fairly poor in South Carolina, and she always had a garden because they were supplementing their nutrition with that and stuff.
00:30:03.000 So, she always had a garden in our backyard when I was growing up.
00:30:07.000 So, like, there'd always be like vegetables.
00:30:09.000 We'd just go out there and grab them and stuff.
00:30:11.000 Even still, you know, my mom's in her 70s, and every year, come March, she's planting stuff to put under the lights.
00:30:17.000 So that way, when May comes, she can get it out into the actual raised beds that she still has.
00:30:22.000 She has no grass in her yard, it's all raised beds and stuff.
00:30:26.000 But it is a different kind of, you know, a different kind of reward when you're, you know, searching for that dopamine hit when you're scrolling or whatever, as opposed to you like spending time out in the, Out in the outside,
00:30:40.000 you have to weed and stuff, make sure the beds don't get overgrown with garbage and all that stuff that goes along with gardening.
00:30:48.000 The reward is different.
00:30:49.000 I still don't have kids, but I imagine it's sort of similar to watching a kid grow up because it's not in planting and raising a garden.
00:30:59.000 I don't know about that.
00:31:00.000 I don't think so.
00:31:01.000 No, no, no.
00:31:03.000 What you're saying in a meta sense is correct.
00:31:06.000 It's the process of nurturing, right?
00:31:09.000 Are they totally different things?
00:31:10.000 Of course, right?
00:31:11.000 But it's also caring about something that's outside yourself, that's other than yourself.
00:31:16.000 It's putting the time and effort in.
00:31:18.000 And it's also, partially, it's a responsibility and a duty, too, right?
00:31:22.000 I just, you have to.
00:31:23.000 I've had a garden before.
00:31:25.000 You have to garden before.
00:31:27.000 And maybe I would say to an extent there's an overlap, but it's like a garden is 0.01% of the feeling.
00:31:34.000 Yeah.
00:31:35.000 Oh, yeah.
00:31:35.000 Yeah.
00:31:36.000 I'm not saying it's the same thing.
00:31:37.000 No, they're just like, yeah.
00:31:40.000 But, you know, if like a grizzly bear came to my garden, I just watch and be like, look at him go.
00:31:44.000 Look, if a great mother came up to my kid, I'd be like, I am going to fight this.
00:31:47.000 You might get involved.
00:31:49.000 I am going to fight this.
00:31:51.000 I'll tell you what, though.
00:31:53.000 But that is, here's how it's the same thing.
00:31:56.000 Because when
00:32:00.000 I see my kid hit a double in the playoff game, that's watching the flower bloom.
00:32:07.000 When I see my son being able to bang out 10 pull ups on the monkey bars, And then flip upside down and flip down.
00:32:17.000 That's watching the flower bloom.
00:32:19.000 And it does take longer, but the release is so much sweeter.
00:32:22.000 Yeah, with animals, there's the animal husbandry.
00:32:25.000 That's the term of raising and caring for animals.
00:32:27.000 Husband, I went into the etymology of the term.
00:32:29.000 It means house, husband, so house bond.
00:32:33.000 House bond. 0.68
00:32:34.000 You take with your wife or your animals. 0.97
00:32:37.000 You become their animal. 0.98
00:32:39.000 You husband them, basically.
00:32:41.000 That's what Tim's been doing with you all this time.
00:32:43.000 I'm domesticated as a result.
00:32:45.000 If you can't tell, Tim, is he completely domesticated at this point?
00:32:49.000 No, no.
00:32:50.000 It's more like we left the door open and he wandered in.
00:32:51.000 There's no way I got there.
00:32:54.000 It's like when you go to your side and there's a raccoon in there.
00:32:56.000 Right, right.
00:32:57.000 You're like, stay here, little buddy.
00:32:59.000 This isn't a thing.
00:32:59.000 Come on.
00:33:00.000 No, it's more like, I don't want it to bite me.
00:33:02.000 I don't want to get rabies.
00:33:03.000 I'm going to go on.
00:33:03.000 I don't know where I got it.
00:33:04.000 And you can't get rid of it.
00:33:06.000 You don't know what he's putting in his mouth.
00:33:08.000 It keeps coming back.
00:33:09.000 It keeps coming back.
00:33:10.000 Well, I mean, we keep leaving the food out.
00:33:12.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:33:13.000 Anyway, graphene everywhere.
00:33:15.000 I won't go too hard on farming, but.
00:33:18.000 Because all this garbage, digital, this and digital, that, and what he said and what she said, like, if we can produce our own food and legitimately fund a city, like, provide all the Chinese want to buy the farmland and BlackRock wants to buy the farmland, so it could be a good antidote.
00:33:32.000 We have too much food, man. 0.95
00:33:33.000 Like, watching these videos, like mukbang videos, it's just a sweet meteor of death.
00:33:39.000 But is food cheap right now, Tim? 0.84
00:33:42.000 Nothing's cheap right now.
00:33:42.000 I don't know.
00:33:43.000 But the problem isn't a lack of food.
00:33:45.000 The problem is a lack of the ability to deliver food to the people that need it.
00:33:48.000 No, the issue is.
00:33:50.000 Food is a generic term and it's not appropriate.
00:33:54.000 What we really need to ask is is protein cheap?
00:33:57.000 Because starch is cheap and that's why people are so fat.
00:34:01.000 You go to the ice cream shop and it's like $2.95 and they give you a quart of ice cream.
00:34:06.000 I'm not even playing.
00:34:07.000 You go out here to one of these like Dairy Queen or whatever and you're like, let me get a peanut buster, whatever they're called.
00:34:13.000 And they're literally going to give you a pint, a full pint of soft serve covered in chocolate and peanuts, and it's like two bucks.
00:34:19.000 Now that's not going to develop muscle mass for you, but it'll make you fat as hell.
00:34:23.000 So we're seeing a bunch of morbidly obese yet still malnourished people.
00:34:27.000 If you are a parent trying to feed your kids, they can't just eat.
00:34:32.000 Sweets.
00:34:33.000 They can't just eat blueberries. 0.85
00:34:34.000 They got to eat their chicken before they can have their blueberries. 1.00
00:34:38.000 Give them eggs too.
00:34:40.000 But what about?
00:34:40.000 Yeah.
00:34:41.000 Well, I was. 1.00
00:34:41.000 My daughter was fighting my wife for hours because she wanted to eat blueberries. 1.00
00:34:47.000 And my wife was like, you've got to finish your chicken before you can have the blueberries. 0.98
00:34:50.000 And it was literally hours where they were like, she was refusing to eat. 0.99
00:34:54.000 No, but that's.
00:34:55.000 And finally, she finished all of her chicken.
00:34:56.000 That's part of being a parent, though, is because that's also.
00:35:00.000 You're going to eat those burritos?
00:35:02.000 What burritos are there burritos?
00:35:04.000 What are you talking about?
00:35:05.000 Somebody talking about burritos.
00:35:06.000 Why are we talking about burritos?
00:35:07.000 What's going on?
00:35:08.000 It's probably like a tangent that had completely unrelated to anything that was going on.
00:35:11.000 Well, no, it wasn't so we were trying.
00:35:14.000 I was trying to change the topic a little bit for this preset little thing, but now we've got a chicken up here.
00:35:21.000 We've got the chicken.
00:35:23.000 Oh, you made the chicken police.
00:35:24.000 Chicken comps.
00:35:25.000 I wonder what it sounds like.
00:35:26.000 Can we hear it?
00:35:28.000 Freeze, Clepper.
00:35:30.000 Did he call him a clucker?
00:35:32.000 Yeah, he did.
00:35:33.000 That's a racial slur. 0.74
00:35:36.000 No, but no, you can say it because Easy Chicken's in.
00:35:36.000 Wow.
00:35:39.000 Oh, that's true.
00:35:40.000 Wait, did he say Kreeze?
00:35:42.000 I think he said Klepper.
00:35:44.000 He sounds really clepper.
00:35:47.000 But look, his wing turns into a foot.
00:35:51.000 Whoa.
00:35:52.000 I want to watch this show. 1.00
00:35:53.000 It needs to be real chickens, though.
00:35:54.000 I want to watch this.
00:35:55.000 It's common.
00:35:56.000 Anyway, you would play it.
00:35:56.000 Yeah.
00:35:57.000 Also, he has a hand there.
00:35:58.000 What did he feel?
00:36:00.000 It's a bag.
00:36:01.000 Chicken feed.
00:36:03.000 Obviously.
00:36:03.000 Chicken feed?
00:36:05.000 And his mask just.
00:36:06.000 Doesn't cover anything like it goes through the bandana.
00:36:09.000 I can recognize everyone knows you can tell chickens by their beaks, that does no good, yeah.
00:36:14.000 But you were talking about burritos, well, yeah, because because well, I mean, Tim, you've seen the giant burrito debate, yeah, the burrito debate going on all over the place, yep.
00:36:24.000 I think I want to say Matt Walsh or Andrew Colvett started it or something, but the uh, Mark Teeson, um, who's this big uh, like neoconservative AI guy, it has been has been and they've just been going back and forth all over the place about it.
00:36:38.000 And so, what I said was.
00:36:41.000 It was this whole argument about whether or not burritos are too expensive these days.
00:36:46.000 And they were having an argument about why don't you just make burritos at home?
00:36:49.000 Or shouldn't you be able to just go out and eat burritos?
00:36:51.000 And so, Tim, what we decided to do here tonight was we got burritos for everybody.
00:36:56.000 We got five burritos, five people.
00:36:58.000 There we go.
00:36:59.000 There we go.
00:37:00.000 And I should probably rip it open.
00:37:01.000 Well, Tim actually got the burritos.
00:37:03.000 It was my idea, but Tim got the burrito.
00:37:04.000 Wait, does it say free chips and guac on it?
00:37:05.000 It does say free chips and guac on it?
00:37:06.000 It does say free chips and guac on it.
00:37:07.000 Is that a coupon for it?
00:37:08.000 If you join their whatever.
00:37:10.000 Give them your information.
00:37:13.000 We've got, so hold on.
00:37:14.000 We've got different types of burritos here.
00:37:17.000 So, all right, we've got.
00:37:19.000 Walk me through this.
00:37:20.000 We've got white rice, black beans, and.
00:37:24.000 So we've got steak.
00:37:25.000 That's a go to.
00:37:26.000 We've got white rice, black.
00:37:28.000 Chicken and sour cream.
00:37:30.000 Shout out.
00:37:32.000 And cheese.
00:37:32.000 They may not all have cheese.
00:37:34.000 They don't all have cheese.
00:37:34.000 I think only two of them have.
00:37:36.000 White rice, pinto beans, chicken and cheese.
00:37:38.000 Beautiful.
00:37:39.000 No sour cream, though.
00:37:40.000 We have got, with no sour cream, which I like because I don't like sour cream, this is the same.
00:37:44.000 No sour cream, chicken, and beans.
00:37:45.000 You can drink that.
00:37:48.000 And last burrito.
00:37:51.000 Ooh.
00:37:52.000 Burrito with guac, white rice, bajitas, black beans, chicken, and mild tomato.
00:37:57.000 Tim, that's got to be you, isn't it?
00:37:58.000 It's the king of all burritos right now.
00:37:59.000 I don't need any of those.
00:38:00.000 You don't need any of those?
00:38:01.000 All right.
00:38:02.000 So these are the five burritos.
00:38:04.000 And now, how much, sir, would you be willing to pay?
00:38:07.000 Having read the ingredients, what would you be willing to pay for a burrito?
00:38:11.000 Name your price.
00:38:13.000 I mean, I don't know.
00:38:15.000 You figure it's about like, you know, these are pretty hefty.
00:38:19.000 These are pretty hefty.
00:38:19.000 I think maybe like 10, 12 bucks, something like that.
00:38:23.000 You got to pick one number
00:38:26.000 12.
00:38:27.000 13.
00:38:27.000 I'm going to say 13.
00:38:29.000 Okay.
00:38:29.000 Let's go around the room.
00:38:30.000 I said a lot.
00:38:30.000 I haven't looked at it.
00:38:31.000 It was my first thought, and I thought how ridiculous that was. 0.63
00:38:33.000 And then I thought 12. 0.87
00:38:34.000 All right.
00:38:34.000 A lot of these, and these, by the way.
00:38:36.000 So, what did you say?
00:38:36.000 You said 12?
00:38:37.000 I said 12.
00:38:38.000 These are not like a little, you know, like, are they double meat?
00:38:43.000 I went to Chipotle today and had a burrito for lunch, and I know how much that cost me, so I'm going to say 20 bucks.
00:38:49.000 20 bucks?
00:38:50.000 I will tell you that.
00:38:50.000 It's insane.
00:38:51.000 Well, you guys clearly have never watched The Price is Right because by me going $1 over you and you're at 20, that means I have the widest range.
00:39:00.000 And of course, the actual cost per burrito.
00:39:03.000 I'm going $1 over 20.
00:39:05.000 Don't you know how The Price is Right works?
00:39:07.000 The way that you're supposed to get as close as you get with the car.
00:39:09.000 Right, right, right.
00:39:09.000 So when the guy says, I think the motorcycle is 100 bucks, the next guy goes 101.
00:39:13.000 How much did you say yours was?
00:39:14.000 Meaning he'll always be closer without going over.
00:39:16.000 The other guy just loses.
00:39:17.000 How much did you say yours was?
00:39:17.000 Right.
00:39:18.000 So he said 12, I said 13, he said 11, you said 20.
00:39:21.000 Which means if they're between 13 and 20, I win.
00:39:21.000 Okay.
00:39:25.000 And I do.
00:39:26.000 Actually, not completely.
00:39:28.000 The chicken and cheese with sour cream is $12.35.
00:39:31.000 Okay.
00:39:31.000 That's cool.
00:39:32.000 $12.35.
00:39:34.000 The steak, just steak, nothing else.
00:39:37.000 White rice, black beans, and steak, there's nothing else in it.
00:39:40.000 $15.
00:39:41.000 Jeez.
00:39:42.000 Yeah.
00:39:43.000 The chicken, the chicken with pinto beans, the chicken is $12.35.
00:39:47.000 Yeah.
00:39:48.000 Yeah.
00:39:49.000 Then we have a chicken with fajita veggies is $16.
00:39:53.000 I got double meat on mine today.
00:39:54.000 Steak was $15.
00:39:56.000 Yeah.
00:39:57.000 So I just want people to understand because we were mentioning this before the show why communists are winning and what the right needs to reckon with is that, bro, one could make the argument like, well, maybe Chipotle is too expensive for you.
00:40:09.000 But if you're working, At a fast food job or whatever, and you're making 20 bucks an hour, after taxes, you're working for one hour out of the day just for your lunch.
00:40:20.000 Yeah.
00:40:21.000 Let alone having, if you're making 20, 25 an hour or 30 an hour, and you got to feed two kids, like, I mean, this is, this is, this is, it's, it's, it's wild because this is not the drink.
00:40:31.000 There's no sides.
00:40:32.000 It's just, just the burrito.
00:40:33.000 Just the burrito.
00:40:34.000 And I got to be honest, like, let's, let's do the math real quick.
00:40:36.000 How many calories are in one of them bad boys?
00:40:38.000 How many calories?
00:40:39.000 Probably 800.
00:40:40.000 I would say a thousand.
00:40:41.000 700 was, like I said, mine today, I did the, I did the math and it was 900 and changed.
00:40:45.000 It was a thousand.
00:40:46.000 I would say a thousand.
00:40:47.000 Yeah, because of the tortilla.
00:40:48.000 Because the meat, well, actually, maybe not.
00:40:52.000 Ian, which one do you want?
00:40:54.000 The final one that you mentioned with all those delicious ingredients.
00:40:57.000 I'm going to wait until after the show before I get in there.
00:40:59.000 Thanks, dude.
00:41:01.000 Jack calls me up and he's like, Tim, did you see the burrito debate?
00:41:04.000 And I was like, yeah, something about it.
00:41:05.000 He's like, we should get the burritos.
00:41:06.000 I'm like, all right, I'll order burritos.
00:41:08.000 Carter, give mine to Ian.
00:41:10.000 He's already got one.
00:41:10.000 I won't eat the gluten.
00:41:12.000 You want it?
00:41:13.000 I'll eat it after the show's over.
00:41:14.000 Whatever one nobody else wants, I'll take it.
00:41:16.000 740 and 1200.
00:41:19.000 Okay.
00:41:19.000 740 to 1200.
00:41:20.000 Yeah, it depends.
00:41:21.000 So, chicken and steak.
00:41:21.000 It depends what you have.
00:41:23.000 Phil, do you want chicken or steak?
00:41:25.000 Chicken or steak with rice, beans, cheese, and sour cream is 1,000 calories.
00:41:30.000 So, I was right.
00:41:31.000 Chicken, cheese.
00:41:32.000 Whenever you start adding cheese and sour cream.
00:41:34.000 Sour cream, yeah.
00:41:35.000 Yeah, you get those numbers way up.
00:41:37.000 Man, the age of cooking is upon us with Putin.
00:41:40.000 I saw him giving a speech to a bunch of college kids.
00:41:42.000 Cooking with Putin?
00:41:43.000 Yeah.
00:41:44.000 Now, that'd be a show.
00:41:45.000 Based reality show.
00:41:46.000 But it was like eight years ago.
00:41:48.000 It was before Biden got into office seven years ago.
00:41:51.000 And they were like, Vladimir, how do we become best men, best men for our country?
00:41:56.000 You know, they're asking Vladimir, and he's like, learn to cook.
00:41:58.000 He tells all these young men, learn to cook.
00:42:00.000 And they laugh at him because they think he's joking.
00:42:00.000 Oh, really?
00:42:02.000 And then he gives them a death stare, and they're like, absolutely serious.
00:42:04.000 National security and for your own livelihood.
00:42:07.000 So he literally says, let them cook.
00:42:08.000 Learn to cook.
00:42:10.000 He tells them, yeah, let them cook.
00:42:11.000 Let them cook.
00:42:12.000 But he was straight up like, yo, bro, we're about to enter a high era of raising.
00:42:16.000 He probably knew the prices were about to blast through the roof.
00:42:19.000 So, like, you can save 60% of your cost if you cook it at home.
00:42:23.000 Now, the thing about cooking.
00:42:25.000 I mean, that is, by the way, that is good life advice.
00:42:28.000 So this has been the argument, right?
00:42:31.000 That one side of the argument says, They're like, hey, that's way too much for a burrito.
00:42:36.000 And by the way, Tim, so this was DoorDash, but did you include the delivery cost in that, or is that just the base price?
00:42:43.000 If we include the full cost, it's about $20, $21 per burrito.
00:42:43.000 No, no.
00:42:49.000 So for delivery.
00:42:51.000 Okay.
00:42:51.000 So for delivery.
00:42:52.000 Now, if I was going to get in my car and drive there, I mean, the total cost of gas is going to be like a buck.
00:42:52.000 So.
00:42:57.000 Now you're spent gas and time, though.
00:43:00.000 So if I was going to drive and it's going to take me about a half an hour there and back, well, actually, maybe a little bit longer.
00:43:05.000 It's about 15 minutes there.
00:43:06.000 Then you order and you wait, unless you order in advance.
00:43:08.000 It's about an hour of my time.
00:43:09.000 That means it's going to be about $3,296 per burrito.
00:43:13.000 That's like a legitimate calculation, too, when you're making a lot of money.
00:43:16.000 No, it is a calculation.
00:43:18.000 No, seriously.
00:43:19.000 I charge in my time for burritos like that.
00:43:21.000 So, this is a whole other aspect of this that I do think should have entered into the conversation that if people say, oh, like for the anti DoorDash people, et cetera, that when you get something delivered,
00:43:35.000 you are literally saving your time.
00:43:37.000 And so, If you have the ability, or if you're busy or doing something else, this is why people do delivery to begin with.
00:43:43.000 This is why I never tip DoorDash drivers because they don't deserve it.
00:43:47.000 Just zero.
00:43:48.000 You never tip?
00:43:49.000 Oh my gosh.
00:43:50.000 No, I always tip more than.
00:43:53.000 You know what's really crazy to me?
00:43:54.000 You know how much a DoorDash delivery driver gets for driving half an hour?
00:43:57.000 They get like $7.
00:43:58.000 Oh, yeah.
00:43:58.000 So you want to know what's really crazy?
00:44:00.000 I was going to say, I always tip.
00:44:01.000 DoorDash won't let me tip.
00:44:03.000 How come?
00:44:04.000 Because I try to tip a lot.
00:44:04.000 Why not?
00:44:06.000 I tried it, and so I didn't know what was going on.
00:44:09.000 I pulled up DoorDash and.
00:44:11.000 So, maybe about like once a month, we do a big order for the company and we'll get a bunch of, you know, Mexican or Taco Bell or something.
00:44:17.000 Yeah.
00:44:17.000 Not Mexican.
00:44:18.000 And so I might order like $500 in Taco Bell, which is like three burritos at this point, but I'm kidding. 1.00
00:44:25.000 So I'll go to the tip and I'll be like, this is going to be like five boxes, five like of the party boxes.
00:44:30.000 So, you want to do a big tip?
00:44:31.000 So, I'll do a big tip.
00:44:32.000 It won't like.
00:44:33.000 So, what happens is I go in and I'll be like, let's do a $50 tip for this one.
00:44:37.000 And it'll go error.
00:44:38.000 And it won't tell me why.
00:44:39.000 I'll just say error.
00:44:41.000 And I'll go.
00:44:42.000 And I'll try again.
00:44:42.000 What's going on?
00:44:43.000 Then I keep changing my payment method.
00:44:45.000 Error, error, error.
00:44:46.000 I'm like, I don't know why I can't order.
00:44:48.000 And then one day I finally figured it out.
00:44:49.000 I thought maybe it's because the tip's too big.
00:44:52.000 So I reduced the tip down to like 20 bucks, went through.
00:44:56.000 That's super cheap.
00:44:58.000 Yep.
00:44:58.000 You could just give them cash when they come, too.
00:44:59.000 There are, this may be a surprise to most people because, and I don't mean this as a humble brag, but you don't experience this.
00:45:09.000 Whenever, and I don't think anybody wants to try it out, but.
00:45:13.000 If you're ever at a kiosk where they flip the thing and ask for a tip and it allows you to punch in a custom number, try going 9999999 and see what happens because it'll stop you and it'll drop it all the way down to like $17 or something.
00:45:29.000 So this is what got me thinking about.
00:45:31.000 I've had people catch it and be like, did you hit too many zeros?
00:45:36.000 Or did you?
00:45:38.000 No, that's why there must be some mistake.
00:45:39.000 Yeah, you know, like whenever I go to a restaurant, I usually tip around 100%.
00:45:46.000 Because there's a few reasons.
00:45:47.000 One, I can, it's nice.
00:45:49.000 The people are very happy and they're happy to see us.
00:45:51.000 And we want to be good to the community and we want to be good.
00:45:54.000 And, you know, I am blessed, so I shall bless others.
00:45:57.000 And also, you just, you know, you want to spread good.
00:46:01.000 You know what I mean?
00:46:02.000 Like, I'll tell you the story.
00:46:03.000 I was in a cab.
00:46:04.000 Well, and, you know, presumably, if you're around here, you're going to go back to the restaurant.
00:46:09.000 They're very happy to see me.
00:46:09.000 Yeah, they all know me.
00:46:10.000 Yeah.
00:46:11.000 But here's the other thing, too, is like, you get perks, right?
00:46:14.000 So when I walk up to the steakhouse, they say, Mr. Poole, whenever you need a seat, you can sit here.
00:46:18.000 Like, you're very kind to us.
00:46:19.000 And I'm like, ah, you know, it's like, but let me tell you the story.
00:46:21.000 I was in Manhattan.
00:46:24.000 And getting a cab from Manhattan to Brooklyn sucks because they can't pick up fares in Brooklyn.
00:46:27.000 They have the green cabs and the yellow cabs, they're separate.
00:46:29.000 Green cab is outside of Manhattan, yellow cab is inside Manhattan.
00:46:31.000 I don't know if they still do it this way.
00:46:33.000 This was 10 years ago.
00:46:33.000 I actually didn't know that.
00:46:34.000 I would take Uber.
00:46:35.000 Yeah, so I'd use the app.
00:46:36.000 Cab would pull up.
00:46:37.000 Well, that was the whole medallion thing, right?
00:46:39.000 Well, that's different.
00:46:40.000 Like, medallion's good for the city.
00:46:41.000 It's just they restrict boroughs.
00:46:43.000 So the cabs will pull up and they'll roll their window down a tiny bit and they'll say, Where are you going?
00:46:47.000 Right.
00:46:48.000 And they're not allowed to do this.
00:46:49.000 And then you say, Brooklyn, they speed off.
00:46:52.000 Because if they go to Brooklyn, they can't get a return fare, so they're going to lose an hour in traffic.
00:46:57.000 So, I get a car and I get in, sit down, and close the door.
00:47:02.000 And he goes, Where to, bus?
00:47:03.000 And I said, Here's the address.
00:47:05.000 And he went, Pissed.
00:47:08.000 Starts driving.
00:47:09.000 He's pissed the whole way.
00:47:11.000 He's muttering to himself.
00:47:12.000 He's furious. 1.00
00:47:13.000 He's just talking trash, just under his breath, driving like a dick. 1.00
00:47:19.000 So, you know what I did? 1.00
00:47:20.000 You know what I did for this guy when I paid and it said tip?
00:47:23.000 I taught him a lesson.
00:47:25.000 I tipped 100%.
00:47:27.000 And you know what he did?
00:47:28.000 He turned around shocked and said, I'm so sorry.
00:47:30.000 Thank you so much.
00:47:31.000 Blessings to you.
00:47:32.000 Thank you so much.
00:47:33.000 And I said, Because I know you can't get a fare on the way back, I wanted to give you a good tip so you can make it back.
00:47:38.000 And he was like, Thank you.
00:47:39.000 Thank you so much.
00:47:40.000 And you know why I did that?
00:47:41.000 You could have just told him that, by the way.
00:47:43.000 That you were going to do that.
00:47:43.000 Told him what?
00:47:45.000 Well, I didn't think about it until like.
00:47:47.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:47:47.000 Until I was mad.
00:47:48.000 But I'm not going to be like, Hey, buddy, don't be mad at me.
00:47:50.000 I'm going to give you a tip.
00:47:51.000 I always tell the Uber drivers now when we do big fares between like Western Union and DC, I'll be like, Hey, buddy, I got you for your way back.
00:47:56.000 Just don't worry about it.
00:47:56.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:47:57.000 Because I'll do stuff like that where like.
00:47:59.000 Here's the thing.
00:47:59.000 Or if I'm asking you to do something different, I'm like, This is what's going to happen at the end.
00:48:04.000 Here's what would happen if that guy stayed pissed off.
00:48:07.000 He'd get back to Manhattan.
00:48:09.000 He'd pick somebody up and he'd be pissed.
00:48:11.000 And that anger is going to pass off onto this guy who gets in.
00:48:14.000 So, guy gets off work.
00:48:15.000 He's tired.
00:48:16.000 He wants to go home.
00:48:17.000 He gets in a cab. 1.00
00:48:18.000 This cab driver's driving like a dick. 1.00
00:48:19.000 He's pissed. 1.00
00:48:20.000 Now the guy's like, oh my God, my head hurts.
00:48:22.000 He walks into his house and his wife is like, did you file the taxes for us?
00:48:22.000 He gets home.
00:48:27.000 He goes, oh my God, I just got off work.
00:48:29.000 The cab driver's been into it.
00:48:31.000 But here's what happens. 0.99
00:48:32.000 Now, the cab driver is happier than a pig and ish.
00:48:35.000 He drives up, he picks up this tired business guy, and he's got a smile on his face, and he says, Hey, man, things are going to be okay. 0.93
00:48:41.000 And the guy says, You know, maybe they are going to be okay.
00:48:43.000 Then he gets home, and his wife sees a phone, and he goes, Honey, that's my bad.
00:48:46.000 I'll take care of it.
00:48:48.000 And you break that anger down.
00:48:49.000 Pain, of course.
00:48:50.000 Not always perfect.
00:48:51.000 Sometimes bad people, you don't want to give them money because they're bad people.
00:48:53.000 This is the plot of It's a Wonderful Life, by the way.
00:48:55.000 There you go.
00:48:56.000 There you go.
00:48:57.000 Of course, he does almost kill himself.
00:48:58.000 But let me go back to this.
00:48:59.000 He does almost kill himself.
00:49:00.000 This is big.
00:49:00.000 This is big.
00:49:01.000 So, This happened to me.
00:49:05.000 This was like a year ago when I first noticed this.
00:49:08.000 I was handed the tablet for a tip, and I was like, I'm going to leave a big tip, right?
00:49:13.000 Let's make a splash.
00:49:15.000 And when I did, I put $1,000.
00:49:19.000 The number immediately dropped down to like 200 and something, and it said, tip amount exceeds limit.
00:49:25.000 And then I was like, it's not letting me put the number in.
00:49:27.000 And it was at a restaurant.
00:49:29.000 The waitress was like, What were you trying to give me $1,000?
00:49:32.000 And she's like, Oh, wow.
00:49:33.000 Then I'm like, It won't let me.
00:49:35.000 I was like, I'm sorry, I can only give you.
00:49:37.000 The bill was like 100 and something, and it only allowed me to tip like 200.
00:49:40.000 And she was like, Well, I'm happy either way.
00:49:42.000 And I'm like, Yeah, that's messed up though.
00:49:45.000 And I guess it's because they're concerned people would accidentally put in too much money.
00:49:48.000 And so then I've tried on other kiosks.
00:49:50.000 I'll just go 99999 and then it drops it way down.
00:49:53.000 And after that happened, that's when I realized why DoorDash wasn't working for me.
00:49:56.000 I stopped using DoorDash because I was like, it keeps giving me errors.
00:49:58.000 I can't buy anything.
00:49:59.000 I didn't know why.
00:50:00.000 So then I went in, I changed the tip down lower and it worked.
00:50:05.000 And I was just like, how insane is it that they don't let you leave good tips?
00:50:11.000 And this is why cash is king.
00:50:13.000 This is why digital currency will never fly.
00:50:16.000 Yeah.
00:50:17.000 And that's why they want digital and that's why they want to lock it all down because they want to control.
00:50:21.000 Listen, people need to understand this.
00:50:22.000 The IRS does not want you giving your money away.
00:50:25.000 People don't understand this.
00:50:26.000 I have to explain it all the time.
00:50:28.000 Working class people, like. 1.00
00:50:30.000 Wait, wait. 1.00
00:50:31.000 No tax on tips.
00:50:32.000 No tax on tips.
00:50:33.000 People don't understand this, not working with large sums of money as a business with input, output, ingestion, et cetera, accounts receivable.
00:50:41.000 That when we hire somebody, we have to write down a paragraph describing what their job is, and we have to have proof they've done that job because we've been audited, and they say, you have a person to prove it.
00:50:56.000 And we have to show the body of work.
00:50:57.000 Here's the video he made.
00:50:59.000 And they go, okay, okay, we get it.
00:51:00.000 We got audited.
00:51:02.000 They claimed that Elad Eliyahu, who lives in New York City, who sells us footage via invoice, they claimed he was a full time employee.
00:51:11.000 And we were like, this is not true.
00:51:13.000 He's a guy we buy, we don't care.
00:51:16.000 And they made us pay some ridiculous amount of money.
00:51:19.000 And then we go to our lawyers first, and we were like, this is insane.
00:51:21.000 They're trying to make us pay.
00:51:22.000 They're claiming that the entire time we've had Elad here, we owe employment tax on everything that's been paid, even though it's an invoice.
00:51:28.000 Purchasing things from him.
00:51:30.000 And this is the new, these are the Uber laws they passed, where they basically said you can't contract anymore.
00:51:35.000 Yep.
00:51:35.000 So this is for the city of New York?
00:51:37.000 No, no, no.
00:51:38.000 This is West Virginia.
00:51:40.000 Every state passed Uber laws.
00:51:41.000 They're called Uber laws, where you cannot hire contractors anymore.
00:51:45.000 If you want to hire a contractor, it's insane.
00:51:49.000 They can't be related to your company.
00:51:52.000 So the idea is this if Elad films a video and then we say we want to buy that video from you, can't do it.
00:52:01.000 Because we're a media company that produces videos, we can only employ him full time.
00:52:06.000 Was it W9 or whatever?
00:52:08.000 W2.
00:52:09.000 I think the tax form before is like W2 is maybe you're right.
00:52:13.000 I don't know.
00:52:15.000 I think W9 is the.
00:52:16.000 No, 990 is the other one.
00:52:17.000 999.
00:52:18.000 Yeah, maybe.
00:52:18.000 Or 1099.
00:52:20.000 1099.
00:52:20.000 Yeah.
00:52:21.000 So anyway, they claimed that everyone we contracted was actually an employee because the work they did was related to the business that we do.
00:52:21.000 Yeah.
00:52:30.000 And they said contracting would be like if your media company needs a plumber.
00:52:33.000 So, you don't want to hire a full time plumber.
00:52:35.000 What?
00:52:36.000 Yep.
00:52:37.000 I've never heard of that.
00:52:38.000 We had to pay $60,000.
00:52:40.000 That's good.
00:52:41.000 Because we went to our lawyers and they said, after legal fees and going to court challenging this, you're going to end up risking an additional 30, 40K on top.
00:52:49.000 You got to pay the 60K.
00:52:50.000 And we were like, this is insane.
00:52:53.000 And it's Uber laws, it's what they're called.
00:52:55.000 So, the Uber laws got passed because of Uber, DoorDash, and these companies.
00:52:59.000 It started with California.
00:53:00.000 They said
00:53:03.000 Uber is hiring people as staff while claiming they're contractors.
00:53:06.000 Right.
00:53:07.000 Uber said we're a social networking app.
00:53:09.000 We connect drivers and passengers.
00:53:12.000 And they said, no, you're a taxi service that has employees.
00:53:16.000 And so they passed these laws saying, here's how contracting must be defined from now on.
00:53:20.000 And although there's exemptions and we qualify for all of them, it doesn't matter because they're here to take your money from you.
00:53:26.000 And I get it.
00:53:26.000 And they're going.
00:53:29.000 I get that argument for gig apps.
00:53:31.000 I do actually get the argument that they're making.
00:53:34.000 But it sounds like, just like every time, that the government's taking way more than they should have.
00:53:40.000 Why wouldn't they? 1.00
00:53:42.000 And then you waste it and give it to Somali fraudsters. 1.00
00:53:45.000 Indeed. 1.00
00:53:46.000 And then, yeah, because like, and you're, but even on the front end too, right?
00:53:50.000 How many fraudsters are using, like, you go to DC, you go to Philly, you go to any of the big cities that, how do you know?
00:53:57.000 Like, are you actually checking that the person that it says in your app is the one who's picking you up, or are you just checking the car?
00:54:02.000 I say his name and the lights, I look at the lights, then I say the guy's name.
00:54:06.000 But they do this all the time, where one guy will have the account and then they'll get somebody else to run the car so they could do it 24 7.
00:54:13.000 We had this problem with DoorDash, so we started doing ID checks and they got mad.
00:54:17.000 Yeah, they don't like when you ID check.
00:54:19.000 Well, we had, what pissed me off is that after like the sixth time, because we have security, right?
00:54:24.000 We have armed security.
00:54:25.000 We have a gate.
00:54:26.000 You can't just get in the property.
00:54:27.000 So they pulled to the gate and then security is very well armed security.
00:54:31.000 Understatement.
00:54:31.000 Yes.
00:54:33.000 We've recently upped our security.
00:54:34.000 I'm not going to explain exactly how, but.
00:54:36.000 Sometimes when I have like someone who's never driven here before, I try to like, I have to like, I explained it to them before they arrive.
00:54:44.000 And I always think they think that I'm joking.
00:54:46.000 And then they actually get here and they're like, Wow.
00:54:49.000 He wasn't joking.
00:54:50.000 I saw the new security today and it surprised me.
00:54:53.000 It's a very, very good idea.
00:54:54.000 Okay, I'll just tell it's an auto defense 50 cal turret mounted on top of two of them.
00:55:00.000 And they're just slowly going back and forth with lasers.
00:55:02.000 No, I'm kidding.
00:55:03.000 And it doesn't have any triggers on the back.
00:55:04.000 It's all remotely operated.
00:55:06.000 I couldn't get them to work at all.
00:55:07.000 He's just kidding.
00:55:08.000 You can't see them.
00:55:08.000 They're camouflaged.
00:55:09.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:55:10.000 They look like cell towers, they look like data centers.
00:55:14.000 Yeah.
00:55:16.000 What were we just talking about before we changed the subject and talked about Uber law?
00:55:18.000 Rito, drivers.
00:55:19.000 Well, the big question here, the big argument, and we haven't even had the debate yet because we were talking about tipping, which is a very good point.
00:55:27.000 But the real question, I think, too, is so it's this debate on should you just suck it up and eat the expensive burrito,
00:55:40.000 or should you suck it up and be forced to eat at home?
00:55:43.000 Should you settle for less?
00:55:47.000 Or this third option of actually making things better for people.
00:55:50.000 And ultimately, this is what the socialists are.
00:55:55.000 They're coming out and saying, We will make your life better.
00:55:55.000 Are offering.
00:55:59.000 We will screw over those companies that are doing all of those things.
00:56:04.000 They're going to lie to you and say that all the prices are the fault of the companies and the companies are evil.
00:56:08.000 They're not going to bring up any of the government things that we've been discussing, not to mention the Federal Reserve or whatever else you want to talk about, endless wars, different things going on that drive inflation.
00:56:19.000 But the point being is if you're sitting there and just telling voters, In an election year that you need to settle for less, you're going to lose.
00:56:32.000 You're going to be electorally slaughtered at the ballot box.
00:56:32.000 Yes.
00:56:36.000 And you probably should deserve to lose as well.
00:56:41.000 And this is why it's one of the things we talk about in the book.
00:56:44.000 And it's that socialists always use a grievance that is real.
00:56:52.000 Sometimes, I mean, a lot of the time they make up grievances as well.
00:56:55.000 But here's my point.
00:56:57.000 They use real grievances and then come up with solutions that sound like they're palatable and sound like they're popular.
00:57:04.000 And this is why they run.
00:57:05.000 Vladimir Lenin, when he was with the Bolsheviks, right, he didn't run on the Red Terror.
00:57:09.000 He ran on, when I say ran, built the movement.
00:57:12.000 He built the movement by saying peace, land, bread.
00:57:16.000 By saying we're going to end the disastrous foreign war that's unpopular.
00:57:20.000 We are going to offer land reform, which might be like rent reform or housing reform, you might say today, and bread, literally free food, almost like free grocery stores.
00:57:30.000 Where are you guys hearing all those things today?
00:57:32.000 That's literally the same thing you're hearing from the socialists right now.
00:57:37.000 Well, you take a look too at the Momdani grocery stores, and here's a chain of events we described in the past couple of weeks.
00:57:42.000 You need IDs to buy.
00:57:44.000 Now, hold on.
00:57:44.000 So good, isn't it?
00:57:45.000 Why would you need an ID?
00:57:47.000 The question was asked what if people buy and then resell?
00:57:49.000 Well, you'll need a library card as a thing to buy here.
00:57:52.000 Hold on.
00:57:53.000 How would having a library card stop you from buying and reselling?
00:57:58.000 I wouldn't.
00:57:59.000 Okay.
00:57:59.000 So, what would they have to implement along with your ID to stop from buying and reselling?
00:58:03.000 Maybe rations.
00:58:04.000 Indeed.
00:58:05.000 And now you're in a food line where you need your ID and they say only one gallon of milk per week.
00:58:09.000 Almost like so.
00:58:10.000 So, Tanya Tay.
00:58:11.000 So, my wife, who was born in the Soviet Union, she has memories of food stamps.
00:58:16.000 And she actually said that we used to play with food stamps.
00:58:18.000 Like, it was like, Like, you know, like, like we would have, you know, trading cards, Pokemon cards.
00:58:22.000 I think you can buy the old booklets.
00:58:23.000 Yeah, you can buy them.
00:58:24.000 And she said we would play with food stamps and we would sort of play around with them.
00:58:28.000 And then, of course, like get in a lot of trouble when we, if we like, we lost one or something.
00:58:32.000 But she 100% has memories of food stamps and bread lines in the Soviet Union.
00:58:39.000 I saw Trump.
00:58:41.000 Well, I just saw like a poly market story that said that Trump asked the oil companies to lower their prices.
00:58:46.000 I don't know how true that was, but I was like, geez, that's like, sounds fake market mistake.
00:58:50.000 He did say that.
00:58:51.000 He said that in the Oval Office.
00:58:52.000 No, I mean, it was a comment that he made.
00:58:56.000 I don't know that the government had any action on it.
00:59:00.000 But that's like when the president starts asking companies to change their prices, you're like, oh, that sounds like we're heading towards price fixing.
00:59:08.000 I actually think that because you'll see this, and I get that there's tails on this.
00:59:14.000 I actually think that it's probably more the individual gas station owners keeping the prices high because you'll see how cutthroat it is if you live in an area that's got gas stations that are, and a lot of them are franchised.
00:59:25.000 But, you know, that are nearby because you'll see some that are like very responsive to the price of, and it's just my personal opinion.
00:59:33.000 I could be totally wrong on this, but you'll see that some are very responsive to oil futures and then some that are like not responsive at all and keeping their price high.
00:59:40.000 You know, and by the way, for different reasons.
00:59:42.000 And of course, you know, that is part of a free market system.
00:59:46.000 Like, I'm not saying it's not, but, or, you know, someone might say, like, oh, well, I'm the one that's closest to the highway.
00:59:51.000 So I'm going to stay higher because I know people are going to come in.
00:59:54.000 They don't want to drive out into town.
00:59:56.000 So I'm just going to keep mine higher anyway.
00:59:59.000 That's not like the CEO of Exxon saying that or whatever. 0.56
01:00:02.000 You brought up the Soviet Communist Revolution. 0.78
01:00:05.000 I do bring them up on a lot of occasions.
01:00:08.000 I have a book actually.
01:00:09.000 You could see it.
01:00:09.000 Lenin.
01:00:10.000 Oh, yeah.
01:00:11.000 That's on humans. 0.94
01:00:12.000 It's on humans.
01:00:12.000 In fact, it's called The Secret History of Communist Revolutions and How to Crush Them.
01:00:16.000 They basically, exactly like you said, pointed out the problems.
01:00:19.000 They issued vague solutions, I guess, like we're going to get everyone.
01:00:22.000 Not just vague, but popular solutions.
01:00:25.000 What went wrong?
01:00:25.000 And then what happened?
01:00:27.000 They killed everyone.
01:00:29.000 They got into power and then did they just immediately start killing people? 0.94
01:00:32.000 Well, they killed it.
01:00:33.000 Well, we can't do what we promised.
01:00:34.000 Well, the killing started a lot before they came into power.
01:00:39.000 There was a war. 0.89
01:00:39.000 They certainly did. 0.89
01:00:41.000 There was a civil war. 0.98
01:00:42.000 Bolsheviks came out on top. 0.97
01:00:43.000 But, you know, they did come out on top. 1.00
01:00:46.000 And what I guess the easiest way to say it is that none of their solutions made any sense. 0.99
01:00:53.000 They all fell apart for a variety of different reasons because they were crazy and a bunch of thugs and criminals. 0.91
01:00:58.000 But the problem was because the people who should have known better, and you see this in. 0.94
01:01:05.000 Socialist revolution after socialist revolution, the people who should have known better and fought back didn't. 0.96
01:01:10.000 And the reason they didn't was because they said, oh, those guys are crazy. 0.88
01:01:15.000 They'll never take power. 1.00
01:01:16.000 Oh, you know, people will see through the stupidity of their actions and we won't work. 1.00
01:01:22.000 Charlie Kirk asked me once, he said, he said, how big was the Bolshevik party? 1.00
01:01:27.000 How many people were there?
01:01:28.000 I said, like, at one point it was really only like a thousand people.
01:01:31.000 He said, and how big was, you know, how many people were in Russia?
01:01:35.000 I'm like, well, it's the whole Russian Empire, right?
01:01:37.000 You know, then how did so few take over so many?
01:01:39.000 I said, Because they didn't take it seriously.
01:01:42.000 Because they didn't take seriously what happens when you have a tiny minority of people.
01:01:46.000 And before we hit that, could I say, I did want to soft announce, soft announce, not a big announce, but a soft announce.
01:01:54.000 Because all of the socialists are currently in the middle of a revolution right now, we are doing, so soft announcing this, a second edition of Unhumans.
01:02:04.000 Ah.
01:02:05.000 And so it's going to be Unhumans Socialist Revolution.
01:02:10.000 And it's going to, so it's the original book.
01:02:12.000 But then we're going to have at least 10 new chapters, all new information about the things that have gone on, the things that have happened since the original book came out, and of course, the tactics to help you survive the communist uprising.
01:02:25.000 Do you think that there's a misnomer between socialism and communism floating?
01:02:30.000 Because I don't like using the terms interchangeably.
01:02:33.000 I hope, and maybe to overcome it, we need to know exactly what it is.
01:02:36.000 So we know exactly what it is.
01:02:37.000 One leads to the other one, essentially.
01:02:40.000 So keep in mind that
01:02:44.000 one of our.
01:02:45.000 One of the thesis, or the thesis, I guess you could say, of our original book is that
01:02:51.000 these are not ideologies, these are tactics.
01:02:56.000 And so, our thesis is that they don't actually want, at some level, the equality or the freedom that they claim, or they don't want everyone to actually have harmony and justice.
01:03:10.000 What they want is to crush you because they hate you, because they're resentful of you and envious of you. 0.52
01:03:15.000 The Soviet Communist Party didn't want.
01:03:17.000 Communism.
01:03:18.000 They wanted what they got, which was vanguardism, a small group taking power.
01:03:21.000 And the same with the CCP.
01:03:23.000 They said communism, they led people towards everyone owns everything, and then a small group took over again.
01:03:29.000 Because communism is impossible, it's like saying we want unicornism.
01:03:32.000 It's a sales tactic.
01:03:33.000 It's just a sales tactic.
01:03:34.000 And socialism, you can also, because socialism is the means to achieve communism.
01:03:43.000 They're not different.
01:03:45.000 Let's clarify.
01:03:45.000 We made the argument before.
01:03:46.000 They're not different.
01:03:47.000 Hold on.
01:03:48.000 Communism is not possible.
01:03:50.000 It is functionally impossible.
01:03:52.000 Socialism is the economic system that communists employ.
01:03:57.000 Communism is vanguardism.
01:04:01.000 Okay, so if I said, Ian, we're going to have unicornism where we'll be led by unicorns and fairies, you'd be like, that's impossible.
01:04:08.000 Correct.
01:04:09.000 The idea that there is no leadership, that every human just exists flatly and equally, that's impossible because the guy who spends all day fixing electrical systems.
01:04:21.000 Is not going to tell you about what's happening on the southern border.
01:04:25.000 So he doesn't know.
01:04:26.000 So you can't have equality because people do different jobs.
01:04:29.000 And then you will need some kind of centralized nucleus of varying strength.
01:04:34.000 So these people say the means of production should be owned by everybody, everybody should be equal and get equal access to everything.
01:04:41.000 Okay, how do you administer resources between large groups of people who do different jobs?
01:04:46.000 There's going to be a central nucleus there.
01:04:49.000 That nucleus will de facto be in charge no matter what.
01:04:52.000 So, communism is a fairy tale.
01:04:54.000 Socialism is everything.
01:04:56.000 So, when they're like, we're not communists, we're socialists, what they're saying is, we're going to build exactly what the communists have always built.
01:05:03.000 Yes, the USSR, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
01:05:06.000 So, they referred to themselves as socialist republics.
01:05:09.000 But of course, everyone would say the USSR is communist, right?
01:05:13.000 So, when you say it's interchangeable, it is because it kind of is, right?
01:05:16.000 It is a tactic which they claim for them, communism means the utopia and that we will eventually get to.
01:05:22.000 In Chinese, Gong Chan Zhu Yi.
01:05:25.000 Is it actually means, Phil, you'd appreciate this.
01:05:28.000 It actually means
01:05:32.000 public propertyism.
01:05:33.000 So, the abolishment of all private property is literally how they say the word communist, communism in Chinese.
01:05:41.000 I want to pull up this story from the BBC.
01:05:43.000 A Japanese town wrestles with identity after protests over its first mosque.
01:05:49.000 Jack was just mentioning how it took only about a thousand Bolsheviks to turn a nation of 40 million into a communist hell pit.
01:05:58.000 And we've got this story from the BBC, which I find absolutely fascinating.
01:06:01.000 I saw these videos Japanese people protesting the construction of a mosque.
01:06:05.000 They say, Today, it's a field of grass, but soon will be the site of the first mosque in this Japanese town.
01:06:10.000 It makes me worry about how our community might change, says longtime resident Noriko Izumizawa.
01:06:17.000 Plans to build an Islamic religious site in Fujisawa, a laid back seaside town about an hour's drive south of Tokyo, have sparked a wide range of emotions.
01:06:24.000 There's anger, fear, as well as hope and acceptance, exposing the growing anxieties over immigration and social change as Japan grapples with a labor shortage and a shrinking and aging population.
01:06:35.000 Guys, This is crazy. 1.00
01:06:38.000 Japan, of all places, allowing a mosque. 1.00
01:06:42.000 Japan for the Japanese. 1.00
01:06:44.000 Here we go. 1.00
01:06:45.000 Islam taking everything over. 1.00
01:06:48.000 Can we show the response of the people? 1.00
01:06:50.000 Do we have images, video?
01:06:51.000 We do have video.
01:06:52.000 Let me see if I can pull one up.
01:06:54.000 One of them that I had pulled up was blocked for being graphic.
01:06:58.000 Let me find that one.
01:06:59.000 Wow.
01:06:59.000 That's the one I want to watch.
01:07:00.000 I can't play it.
01:07:01.000 And, oh, I mean, if it's that graphic.
01:07:03.000 But, you know, it's.
01:07:04.000 Oh, we got dramatic music alongside it.
01:07:08.000 No, this is
01:07:12.000 good. 1.00
01:07:17.000 They're protesting the first mosque. 0.73
01:07:20.000 That's crazy.
01:07:22.000 Larger than the nearby Shinto shrine.
01:07:25.000 Shintoism, that's the.
01:07:27.000 Now, why would the Japanese government be allowing this to happen?
01:07:30.000 Are they conquered?
01:07:32.000 Well, you know, I gotta stop.
01:07:33.000 I gotta stop.
01:07:34.000 I'm sorry.
01:07:35.000 I shouldn't say things like this.
01:07:36.000 I was listening to Tucker Carlson.
01:07:37.000 He said Islam's actually fine, actually. 1.00
01:07:38.000 Well, I was gonna say. 0.99
01:07:42.000 To be directly clear, Japan was conquered 1.00
01:07:46.000 by Christians. 0.91
01:07:48.000 By the United States. 0.61
01:07:49.000 Yeah.
01:07:49.000 I mean, militarily.
01:07:50.000 By Christians.
01:07:53.000 It was a largely Christian empire that did so. 0.72
01:07:57.000 The time of the conquering of Japan, the United States was like 95% Christian.
01:08:01.000 Sure, but you could also argue that it wasn't necessarily the most Christian act to drop the atomic bomb. 0.70
01:08:07.000 Sure.
01:08:08.000 And we didn't build churches.
01:08:09.000 And no.
01:08:10.000 We actually probably did.
01:08:11.000 Not really. 0.66
01:08:12.000 And more South Korea more so than Japan.
01:08:15.000 And also, let's be clear that Japan's surrender also came as they were being threatened by invasion of the Soviet Union at the same time, which everybody leaves out. 0.78
01:08:23.000 Because the Soviets. 0.63
01:08:25.000 From the West. 0.80
01:08:26.000 And they had taken Manchuria, which was the industrial base. 0.98
01:08:28.000 Soviets.
01:08:30.000 And then after Japan, also in the book, by the way, after Japan surrendered rather than fight, the Red Army gave all the weapons to Chairman Mao.
01:08:39.000 So that's where you get to see.
01:08:40.000 There's been ongoing protests in Fujisawa for a long time, actually.
01:08:44.000 Good for them.
01:08:45.000 Yeah.
01:08:45.000 Keep it up, boys.
01:08:46.000 Keep it up.
01:08:48.000 Yeah.
01:08:49.000 Don't lose your country.
01:08:50.000 Don't lose your identity.
01:08:51.000 Freedom of religion is important.
01:08:51.000 Like, what is it?
01:08:53.000 No, it's not.
01:08:54.000 No, no.
01:08:55.000 It's an important part of liberalism. 1.00
01:08:57.000 It's because they want the migrants. 1.00
01:08:59.000 That's why the government's doing this. 0.99
01:09:01.000 Because Japan has been allowing migrants in as cheap labor. 0.99
01:09:04.000 They've been doing it for quite some time. 0.99
01:09:07.000 You see migrants from the Indian subcontinent. 0.91
01:09:10.000 You see it from South Asia.
01:09:11.000 You see it from the Middle East. 0.99
01:09:13.000 And in order to make the cheap workers happy, if they want a mosque, they can have a mosque. 0.99
01:09:18.000 Liberalism is. 0.72
01:09:20.000 Liberalism is a closed system.
01:09:22.000 It doesn't work if you have an authoritarian party that's infiltrated your system, right?
01:09:29.000 Because the only way to get rid of an authoritarian party is with authoritarianism.
01:09:35.000 You can't, like, authoritarians don't let you vote them out.
01:09:39.000 Communists or socialists, when they take control, they're never, almost never voted out.
01:09:44.000 They just consolidate power, change the rules, so that way they always win.
01:09:50.000 And you hear the Democrats, the DSA in the United States, saying that they want to do those things.
01:09:57.000 They want to abolish the Senate, they want to get rid of the presidency, they want to do things that would consolidate their power.
01:10:03.000 That would make sure that it would be only people that are DSA members could win.
01:10:08.000 And they're upset.
01:10:09.000 But because, by the way, they're obsessed with taking power.
01:10:12.000 Obsessed.
01:10:12.000 Yes.
01:10:13.000 They think about it all day long.
01:10:15.000 It's the only thing they don't think about.
01:10:17.000 You were talking about food distribution systems and all this.
01:10:20.000 They don't think about that.
01:10:21.000 They think, how can I control everything?
01:10:22.000 They wake up every day and they say, how can I control everything?
01:10:25.000 This is why, for example, I bring this up at a small point, but to make a point, you can go to any library in the United States of America, and I'll guarantee you what is on the very front end.
01:10:37.000 Table when you walk into that library, and you guys all know what I'm going to say.
01:10:40.000 You're going to see like anti racist baby, you're going to see some BLM stuff, you're going to see some feminist stuff, you're going to see some trans stuff, and it's on every library.
01:10:49.000 Why?
01:10:50.000 Why is that in every library?
01:10:51.000 Because you look at the library and you think, ah, that's a place to get books.
01:10:55.000 The communist in your town looks at the library and says, that's a place that I can take over and exert power.
01:11:03.000 And communists are completely fine with destroying the thing if they can't control it.
01:11:09.000 Right, like they're completely destroying the thing.
01:11:12.000 Yeah, look at Los Angeles.
01:11:13.000 I mean, that's what ends up happening in the long run.
01:11:15.000 But generally, they want to control something, and if they can't achieve control of it, they'll do everything they can to destroy it.
01:11:22.000 You look at what they did to like the Boy Scouts with the whole like, you know, you have to let everyone in, you have to let girls in.
01:11:28.000 Boy Scouts are basically done now.
01:11:31.000 They do that with every institution, and part of the reason they do that is because institutions are what make a culture they're what hold a culture together.
01:11:41.000 That's part of the reason why you see so many weird things going on in a lot of the Protestant churches, right?
01:11:47.000 Like the trans stuff, we're welcoming everybody, the LGBT stuff. 1.00
01:11:52.000 They infiltrate, they wear it like a skin suit. 1.00
01:11:55.000 It's not really the core of whatever the institution was, it's gone. 0.98
01:12:00.000 They're wearing it like a skin suit, so they'll wear whatever the church would wear. 0.95
01:12:07.000 But all the important things about the church have been taken out. 0.81
01:12:11.000 Yeah, Hollywood is a great example of this too, when they were wokeifying.
01:12:15.000 You know, franchises and you know, they they constantly, uh, Lord of the Rings, you know, or whatever franchise we could, Star Wars, right?
01:12:23.000 You could think of a million things.
01:12:24.000 Why do they do that?
01:12:25.000 They want to destroy it, they love that they've destroyed something that was below, like this beloved cultural institution.
01:12:31.000 When the Soviets took over the Soviet Union, the Bolsheviks, they destroyed the institution of the monarchy, the empire.
01:12:37.000 They did, so that was like a negative, and quite literally, most people were like, screw the empire.
01:12:41.000 No, that was bad.
01:12:42.000 Actually, actually, if you want to get really, if you want to get really uh, technical, um, the czar abdicated.
01:12:50.000 So, Tsar Nicholas actually tried to compromise with them.
01:12:52.000 And he said, Well, shortly if I just abdicate and I show you that I'm willing to work with you, I'm going to abdicate and I won't be the Tsar anymore.
01:13:01.000 And we'll have all this democracy stuff and you'll be fine.
01:13:06.000 Well, what did they do?
01:13:07.000 They shot his kids in the basement.
01:13:08.000 They took him and his children out to the woods.
01:13:11.000 They stuck him in a basement.
01:13:12.000 They put him against the wall and they shot them until they were all dead. 0.60
01:13:16.000 His children.
01:13:17.000 The whole family.
01:13:18.000 They couldn't risk anyone, any kind of lineage emerging later on claiming a right.
01:13:22.000 They kept him on house arrest for a while, and then somebody had a decision.
01:13:25.000 They were like, you know what?
01:13:26.000 Take him out.
01:13:26.000 It's just too risky.
01:13:27.000 Yeah, apparently they were like, we're sorry, but we have to kill you because in the future your kids might try claiming. 0.74
01:13:33.000 It's also, as depicted in the famous book on humans, that during the Civil War, the liberation of the royal family became like a huge goal for the White Army,
01:13:51.000 which was the remnant of the Russian army, the Russian Imperial Army.
01:13:54.000 So they kept trying to liberate them. 0.81
01:13:56.000 That's why they brought them so far out into Yekaterinburg.
01:14:00.000 Out in, like, you know, towards Siberia, basically.
01:14:02.000 And so that no one will ever be able to get them out here.
01:14:05.000 But then there was still, you know, a worry that, you know, that spies from the White Army might be able to find them.
01:14:12.000 And Pyotr Rengel was the leader of that White Army. 0.58
01:14:15.000 And so that's what kind of led, among other things. 0.76
01:14:18.000 What should they have done?
01:14:19.000 Led to the killing.
01:14:19.000 What should who?
01:14:20.000 What should the Tsar Nicholas have done when the Bolsheviks began to. 0.96
01:14:24.000 He should have arrested them all. 0.94
01:14:26.000 And then done what with them?
01:14:27.000 He should have arrested them all.
01:14:28.000 If any of them had committed specific crimes like murder, they should have been arrested. 0.94
01:14:33.000 Uh, clearly, should have been hung if they were people who are fomenting a civil war like that.
01:14:37.000 Um, were committing treason, then obviously, yeah, you have you.
01:14:40.000 This is why I've said, and you know, people asked me about this at the Tyler Robinson hearing.
01:14:45.000 They said, you know, you know, you believe you should get the death penalty.
01:14:48.000 I said, I said, assassins should always receive the death penalty in any system because, because an assassin, or in this case, you know, we're talking about treason, you are someone who is waging war against the system itself, you're waging war against your own nation, and you are trying to destroy your own nation.
01:15:04.000 And in doing so, you're destroying, you are waging war against the very, I use the Hobbesian form of state of war here, where you are waging war against
01:15:16.000 the very underpinnings of that nation.
01:15:18.000 And as such, to Phil's point, you can't have that element in your society.
01:15:24.000 So you either have to lock it up, you have to stamp it out, you have to smash the institutions.
01:15:29.000 And in the extreme situations, that's where capital punishment would be applicable.
01:15:32.000 You might call them agents of chaos.
01:15:33.000 It used to be that there was no good and evil.
01:15:35.000 Way back in human perception, it was only order and chaos.
01:15:38.000 And then once we established order, we were able to figure out hey, there's another way of being.
01:15:42.000 There's good and evil that can exist within order.
01:15:44.000 But when there's no order, bro, people eat each other and kill each other.
01:15:47.000 This is the Code of Hammurabi. 0.99
01:15:48.000 You know, it's very fascinating.
01:15:49.000 Which we also talk about in the book.
01:15:51.000 During the Aegis Revolution, Mubarak refused and I believe ultimately arrested him, right?
01:15:57.000 And Morsi as well. 0.64
01:15:58.000 Well, yeah, this was the Muslim Brotherhood uprising.
01:16:00.000 Right.
01:16:01.000 Yeah. 0.93
01:16:01.000 And so at the time, I was like, why won't these North African leaders just abdicate? 0.93
01:16:07.000 Just say, If the people want this democracy, then we will step back, keep one hand in the steering wheel. 0.91
01:16:13.000 The funny thing is, that's what Tsar Nicholas tried doing.
01:16:16.000 He tried, he said, okay, I understand, I'll abdicate.
01:16:19.000 Then they massacred him and his family.
01:16:21.000 And there's actually a really, really, really sad part to that as well, because so people remember the royal families of Europe at that time were very well interconnected.
01:16:31.000 This did immediately post World War I.
01:16:33.000 And so his first cousin was actually the King of England, King George.
01:16:39.000 And he wrote to his cousin and said, Please offer asylum to me and my family.
01:16:46.000 And, you know, we don't know what's going to happen.
01:16:49.000 The instability is getting to, you know, it's becoming too much.
01:16:53.000 We need safe passage.
01:16:54.000 Please give us a letter of safe passage to England.
01:16:57.000 And he wouldn't do it.
01:16:59.000 The reason I brought up the Soviet Union is because, like you were saying, one of the things about communists is that they'll just try to destroy whatever the, you know, the establishment is of that time to create.
01:17:10.000 You're not saying this, I'm saying this to create.
01:17:13.000 Chaos in order to then use that chaos to propel their movement.
01:17:16.000 Yeah, no, that's what we say. 0.99
01:17:17.000 So you might argue that the Russian royal family was a shitty establishment. 0.97
01:17:23.000 And it was like, you could see why. 1.00
01:17:24.000 Then you might argue the Chinese. 0.97
01:17:26.000 Why do you say it?
01:17:27.000 It was imperial monarchy. 0.98
01:17:29.000 And so you're just saying that he's a piss poor leader. 0.98
01:17:31.000 He doesn't believe the Chinese. 0.91
01:17:33.000 But Ian, what you're saying, though, is exactly what I was pointing out is that I'm not saying the grievances weren't genuine, right?
01:17:41.000 So my people were upset about the.
01:17:41.000 Yes.
01:17:43.000 I said they were upset about the foreign war.
01:17:44.000 They were upset about the price of food.
01:17:46.000 They were upset about their housing costs, the price of housing.
01:17:50.000 And so in response, they murdered the ruler and his whole family. 1.00
01:17:54.000 So the Chinese then. 0.98
01:17:55.000 40 years later, we're looking at 1946, whenever the Chinese, after World War II, it's basically like the Chinese. 0.62
01:18:00.000 Oh, it started in the 20s.
01:18:01.000 China's like an American puppet at this point, or like a liberal puppet with the Republic of China.
01:18:06.000 There's an uprising in China, that we have the Chinese Revolution with Mao.
01:18:10.000 They argue that establishment is an imperial Western establishment.
01:18:13.000 They're trying to take us over, probably, is what their argument was.
01:18:15.000 I don't know.
01:18:17.000 But now, with the modern day.
01:18:18.000 Yes, absolutely.
01:18:19.000 The modern day communists, what's their argument?
01:18:21.000 Corporatocracy's ineffective.
01:18:23.000 We need a state run.
01:18:25.000 Like, what.
01:18:27.000 How can they pin this establishment as bad as those words?
01:18:30.000 Well, they talk about it.
01:18:31.000 Does it matter how bad it is?
01:18:32.000 They talk about the foreign war, they talk about the cost of living, and they talk about the cost of housing.
01:18:36.000 It's just the economy. 0.58
01:18:38.000 Life today in the United States is just orders of magnitude better for even the poorest than it was for the poorest Russians before the Russian Revolution. 0.54
01:18:49.000 Just the amount of abundance that we have here in the United States, even now for people that are struggling, right?
01:18:56.000 They have cell phones, nobody's actually going hungry.
01:18:58.000 Yes, it's harder to make ends meet now than it was 10 years ago.
01:19:02.000 But when you compare the standard of living that the poorest Americans have compared to peasant farmers before the Russian Revolution, it's not even worth mentioning.
01:19:15.000 But the point that I'm making is it doesn't matter about people's actual material conditions, which is one of the things that communists love to talk about.
01:19:24.000 Marx always talked about the material conditions.
01:19:26.000 The material conditions are actually irrelevant.
01:19:29.000 What these things are motivated by, what these movements are motivated by, is resentment and hate for, first of all, people that have more than they do.
01:19:37.000 Not that they don't have enough, it's how much more people have than them.
01:19:42.000 And a hatred of reality.
01:19:44.000 You hear these people talk all the time I didn't ask to be born.
01:19:48.000 I shouldn't have to work to survive, blah, That is contrary to reality.
01:19:53.000 Like every single organism on earth has to struggle to survive.
01:19:58.000 And it is easier for human beings, particularly in the United States, to survive.
01:20:04.000 Than for any other organism in all of Earth's history.
01:20:09.000 So the argument that, oh, well, you know, we're just trying to get what we need to survive, that's a lie.
01:20:15.000 It's about wanting the people that are at the top, the people that are actually running, it's about wanting power.
01:20:20.000 And what they're doing is they're telling the people below them, basically the proletariat, they're telling them, I have the solution for what ails you.
01:20:29.000 But none of it's true.
01:20:30.000 It doesn't reflect reality.
01:20:32.000 And what it actually does is it takes.
01:20:35.000 What in what Catholics would refer to as one of the seven deadly sins, the sin of envy.
01:20:39.000 Yep.
01:20:40.000 And it turns envy into a political system and a moral justification for envy.
01:20:46.000 And in fact, the second person ever, or I should say, I guess the first person ever born, right?
01:20:54.000 The first person ever born on the planet was Cain, right?
01:20:57.000 Cain and Abel.
01:20:59.000 And yet Cain was envious of Abel.
01:21:02.000 And in fact, he was so envious because Abel had favor that he murdered his own brother.
01:21:07.000 So he was the first person who was ever born on the planet.
01:21:10.000 Now, also as a Catholic, I would point out that he was the first person born with original sin after the fall of the garden, but he murdered his brother out of envy.
01:21:20.000 In fact, one of the original titles that I had for the book was Children of Cain.
01:21:24.000 The envy is like the, it comes from the lack of appreciation for what you have, essentially.
01:21:31.000 And then you start to.
01:21:32.000 And the hyper obsession with that which another has.
01:21:35.000 Yeah, you start to want other things because you're not happy with what you've got.
01:21:38.000 Whereas not just want, but also resentment of that person to the point where you would be willing to kill them to try to take what they have or at least prevent them from having.
01:21:48.000 Regarding, I mean, I'm all about steel manning the opposition here.
01:21:51.000 Regarding what you're saying, if the argument against communists say we need to, it's a foreign war, it's the cost of living, the cost of food, like, how are they wrong?
01:21:58.000 But, well, and so this is actually kind of what I wanted to say as well is that you, in order to defeat a socialist revolution, you can't deny that the reality is what it is.
01:22:10.000 So you can't, we just did the burrito test, right?
01:22:12.000 And the burrito, like, I'm going to tell you that that's too much.
01:22:16.000 It's too much.
01:22:17.000 It feels like it's too much.
01:22:18.000 Yeah, I'm just reading about the execution.
01:22:22.000 The and then, uh, Dar Nicholas, yeah, when they said to him, You are to be executed, the Soviet workers have demanded it.
01:22:27.000 What are you saying?
01:22:27.000 He went, What?
01:22:28.000 Like, what an idiot! 1.00
01:22:29.000 Yeah, he was cheap, dude. 1.00
01:22:31.000 He went out to try to lead the soldiers because they were losing the front, and he was a terrible military. 1.00
01:22:35.000 And that's why they're so oblivious and so stupid. 0.99
01:22:37.000 Well, actually, actually, interesting enough, that's um, uh, you you you familiar with Rasputin, right? 0.99
01:22:42.000 Yeah, we all know about Rasputin, lover of the Russian queen, uh, allegedly, allegedly, but uh, she was also known to be devoutly Christian, so you know, uh, lover of many, but the fact that.
01:22:54.000 Was he not actually with the queen?
01:22:56.000 That was one of the rumors spread against him.
01:22:56.000 We'll see.
01:22:58.000 But actually, Rasputin was anti war.
01:23:02.000 And he said, We can't do this war.
01:23:04.000 We have to be against this.
01:23:05.000 This is going to destroy the empire.
01:23:06.000 This is going to destroy everything you have.
01:23:08.000 But of course, Tsar Nicholas was saying, Well, what about the honor of Russia?
01:23:12.000 And this is, of course, like Archduke Franz Ferdinand has been assassinated by a Serbian nationalist.
01:23:19.000 And so the Habsburgs and Austria Hungary are declaring war on Serbia.
01:23:24.000 And Serbia, of course, was allied with Russia.
01:23:25.000 So Russia's like, Well, You know, we're not going to defend our ally.
01:23:29.000 We're not going to go to war, et cetera.
01:23:30.000 You know, and so Rasputin is arguing against this.
01:23:34.000 The Tsarina was also arguing against this.
01:23:37.000 And so it was actually conservative army officers in the Russian military who murdered Rasputin.
01:23:44.000 Oh, really?
01:23:44.000 Because he was anti war.
01:23:46.000 They stabbed him like 50 times.
01:23:47.000 He wouldn't die.
01:23:49.000 And threw him in the river.
01:23:52.000 And so there's this whole interesting anti war.
01:23:54.000 So everyone knows about Rasputin, but they don't actually know why he was killed.
01:23:57.000 Right, because it's because it was anti war, and they they were kept warning the czar, he kept warning the czar.
01:24:03.000 And you know, I'm not going to comment on his proclivities, but you know, you can't say he was wrong about what would happen, and that's exactly what happened.
01:24:10.000 And so, you look at these things, and you know, I look at the popularity of the Iran war, which is obviously extremely unpopular, you look at the cost of living, which is now the number one issue in the United States in this election, 0.98
01:24:23.000 and you look at the fact that we live in a K shaped economy.
01:24:27.000 You guys know, K shaped economy, no, that phrase.
01:24:29.000 So, the idea of K shaped economy, it took me a second to understand it because it's not necessarily intuitive.
01:24:35.000 Is that like communist China?
01:24:37.000 Well, it's like China today.
01:24:39.000 But it's this idea that from a certain point in time, when you're looking at a graph, and I'll do it this way for the camera, that one line goes up while another line goes down.
01:24:49.000 So, it creates a K.
01:24:51.000 And the phrase used for this is K shaped economy. 0.71
01:24:53.000 We're just looking at a graph that looks like that.
01:24:56.000 So, since 2008, the argument is that we have had a K shaped economy since the financial crisis. 0.97
01:24:56.000 And so, yeah. 0.97
01:25:04.000 That if you're under the median income level, you've never really recovered to beyond or to before 2008 levels.
01:25:12.000 That quantitative easing, though, has been amazing.
01:25:15.000 So, the Fed printing money has been phenomenal for the Kevin O'Learys of the world and the people who are sort of the Wall Street class, and for everybody else that you've just been kind of screwed and you've been living in a silent recession type conditions since 2008.
01:25:29.000 And the situation isn't getting better.
01:25:32.000 And President Trump obviously has been fighting to make it better.
01:25:37.000 But there's a lot of people who think that the relief that was promised in 2004, the relief from the Biden regime, the relief from COVID and everything that was enacted during then, has not yet come.
01:25:49.000 And that is producing a lot of anger.
01:25:51.000 And that is why people are turning towards the socialist candidates because they're saying, hey, we tried this guy and we feel like it didn't work.
01:25:58.000 And now we're going to go to the other extreme.
01:26:01.000 You know, the only.
01:26:02.000 Not because they're.
01:26:03.000 And by the way, not because they're necessarily pro socialism, because it's because they're anti establishment.
01:26:10.000 That's why they're.
01:26:12.000 You mean the communists in general?
01:26:14.000 No, no, I'm talking about voters right now.
01:26:16.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.
01:26:17.000 They're pissed off at whatever's been happening with the inflation.
01:26:19.000 And so.
01:26:19.000 Right.
01:26:20.000 So they're not.
01:26:21.000 So if I sit there and talk about how crazy. 0.99
01:26:23.000 You know, Abdul El Sayed is and point out that, you know, he obviously hates white people. 0.97
01:26:28.000 He's for the abolishment of ICE. 0.77
01:26:30.000 He's for defunding the police. 1.00
01:26:32.000 He wants to flood this country with infinity migrants from the Middle East. 1.00
01:26:36.000 Just he looks at Spain and says that's a blueprint, right? 1.00
01:26:38.000 He gets good ideas.
01:26:40.000 And, you know, this is a guy who clearly wants that, but he doesn't use that in his rhetoric.
01:26:45.000 When he gets up and speaks, he talks about what?
01:26:48.000 Peace, land, bread.
01:26:50.000 Okay.
01:26:51.000 The only solution I can see is reducing cost, because I don't think we can create enough.
01:26:55.000 Output transcript Outgoing product to make our economy better.
01:26:57.000 But if we can reduce the cost of fuel and we start using hydrogen, the problem is.
01:27:01.000 Or raise wages.
01:27:02.000 But if we go off.
01:27:02.000 But we don't have the infrastructure.
01:27:03.000 We go off petroleum.
01:27:04.000 First, we don't have the infrastructure.
01:27:05.000 And if we go off petroleum, we no longer control the world by the nuts.
01:27:08.000 Like the military industrial complex runs the world on oil.
01:27:11.000 You're talking about a decades long plan.
01:27:15.000 Like you're fixed.
01:27:16.000 But even that, I can't square the circle because if we go off petroleum, we lose the global hegemony.
01:27:23.000 It seems to be.
01:27:23.000 Okay, so we don't need to go off petroleum totally.
01:27:27.000 But the idea of going to hydrogen, like you have, we do not have any infrastructure.
01:27:33.000 Well, the methane, we can run through the methane channels to the gas stations.
01:27:37.000 That's still a decade or more, at least a decade or more work.
01:27:41.000 By then, the socialists will have won.
01:27:45.000 We need a much faster solution than changing all of our infrastructure for power.
01:27:52.000 To be honest with you, it's more reasonable to say, well, we're going to switch over to solar.
01:27:58.000 And electric cars, because at the very least, we have the foundation of an infrastructure with all the Tesla stuff.
01:28:06.000 So, I wanted to throw something to Tim actually on this because this isn't the first time.
01:28:11.000 So, typically, this happens when you have great, you have periods of great income inequality.
01:28:17.000 And the first time this happened in the United States was the Industrial Revolution.
01:28:20.000 Now it's happening again in sort of like the tech revolution, if you want to call it that.
01:28:23.000 And, you know, in response to the Industrial Revolution, and we, you know, talk about a guy in Dayton, Ohio who ran the National Cash Register Company, but he's really famous for this.
01:28:33.000 And he was one of those guys who said, Hey, his name was John Patterson.
01:28:38.000 And he said, What if we just made the workplace better for the workers?
01:28:43.000 Or maybe what if we provided housing for our workers?
01:28:46.000 Or did something like create the five day work week and the 40 hour work week?
01:28:52.000 And a lot of that was going on at the same state for machinery, cleaner conditions, higher wages, better hours for the workforce.
01:28:59.000 A lot of that happened at the same time as the original, original rise of the labor unions.
01:29:05.000 And We kind of point out that it was those forces in, you know, kind of like immediate post turn of the century.
01:29:12.000 That's why the United States didn't have a socialist revolution back then, the way so many other countries did.
01:29:18.000 So, if we can change our work weeks so it's 20 hour work weeks and people get paid twice as much for a 20 hour work week, that might be a potential.
01:29:25.000 I wonder if.
01:29:26.000 You get what I'm saying?
01:29:28.000 People have been pointing out that woke emerged during Occupy Wall Street, that it was an attempt by the elites to distract the masses instead of complaining about the financial system that was bailing out the elites and controlling everything,
01:29:42.000 make them fight about race instead.
01:29:45.000 And then the funny thing is, woke is largely broke at this point, but no one now remembers Occupy or the bailouts or the financial crisis.
01:29:52.000 They're not really thinking about it.
01:29:54.000 And so now the cultural issues largely centered around Israel. 0.64
01:29:59.000 So it's like there's a new boogeyman. 0.89
01:30:02.000 No one is complaining about the bailouts anymore.
01:30:04.000 That's 20 years ago.
01:30:05.000 That whole movement crashed because of the woke takeover.
01:30:10.000 And I think it's fascinating because I was being there at Occupy and watching the narrative change from, They bailed out corporations and screwed over the working class. 0.98
01:30:18.000 And then within two weeks, it was white people are bad. 0.97
01:30:21.000 Makes sense. 0.99
01:30:22.000 It's crazy, dude.
01:30:23.000 Because it's going up against the banking cartel is tough because it's like in the brain of our system.
01:30:29.000 The Federal Reserve, it's entrenched.
01:30:31.000 Well, I think even you are a little bit too, you're being a little bit too myopic.
01:30:37.000 You complain about the banking cartel is still another one of their make them focus on something that's not the bigger problem.
01:30:44.000 The use of banks as a tool for control is just a tool.
01:30:48.000 So, they're dangling the keys over there and you're pointing at it.
01:30:50.000 Then they dangle the keys over there and everyone else points at that when the person is standing right in front of you.
01:30:54.000 What do you think it is?
01:30:55.000 Is it usury?
01:30:56.000 Is that the real problem?
01:30:57.000 No.
01:30:58.000 Is it a specific company?
01:30:59.000 Is it a way of doing business?
01:31:01.000 It's confidence. 0.82
01:31:03.000 Again, like when you come out and you're like the banking cartels, that's as useful as saying white men. 0.71
01:31:11.000 The liberal, I would say the Bank for International Settlements, that would be more so. 0.80
01:31:11.000 Oh, okay. 0.80
01:31:14.000 The liberal economic order.
01:31:15.000 It's run through the system.
01:31:16.000 The mechanism of elites that manipulates various levers of power.
01:31:20.000 To maintain control from media to finance to military or otherwise.
01:31:24.000 And anytime you focus on that machine, they'll dangle keys in a different direction and make you go run somewhere else.
01:31:30.000 So, what's interesting is I just turned the page and I said, and I was like, wow, this is crazy. 0.83
01:31:36.000 Because we wrote this two years ago and we said, to be clear, this is a population that could easily be wielded and mobilized by a BLM Chavez type figure. 0.64
01:31:49.000 Trust me, you do not want to wait for that figure to emerge.
01:31:52.000 Nope.
01:31:54.000 That's the DSA right now, isn't it?
01:31:56.000 That's exactly what. 0.66
01:31:57.000 But they don't have their Stalin, you know?
01:31:59.000 Yeah, they don't. 0.65
01:32:00.000 But they're all kind of like vying to be that one.
01:32:03.000 I would agree that that one individual hasn't come up yet, but you know.
01:32:06.000 Hassan could.
01:32:07.000 Mandami wants it.
01:32:08.000 Hassan wants it. 0.89
01:32:11.000 I guarantee you. 0.99
01:32:12.000 Hassan Piker is the kind of guy who will walk up to a person and slit their throat.
01:32:16.000 Well, and what's crazy about that is that he is so vocal about his support for left wing violence, and yet you don't hear anyone.
01:32:27.000 Or any social media.
01:32:28.000 And by the way, I don't think he should be banned.
01:32:30.000 But when anyone on the right says anything that, quote unquote, could be construed as violent, immediately banned.
01:32:38.000 Yet he'll go out there and support the murder of conservatives.
01:32:41.000 He'll say that hurt people hurt people when churches and temples and synagogues are bombed.
01:32:48.000 He'll kind of play footsie with all of this violent stuff out there.
01:32:51.000 He'll say he'll make excuses for Maggioni and tell the New York Times that.
01:32:58.000 You know, that Brian Thompson was committing social murder as a healthcare CEO. 0.94
01:33:02.000 It's disgusting. 0.63
01:33:04.000 And nobody seems to bat an eye. 0.99
01:33:06.000 He literally supports violence, death, and murder.
01:33:10.000 Yeah, Nick Fuentes made the point that the left will do all of the cover for their extremists that they possibly can.
01:33:20.000 And the right is so quick to just, you know, say, look, we don't agree with this and to condemn the people that say extremists.
01:33:29.000 Well, but that's why I brought up Tsar Nicholas.
01:33:31.000 And there's several accounts of his death, but one is they brought him to the basement saying it's for your own safety.
01:33:36.000 And then Tsar Nicholas says, can we have some chairs?
01:33:39.000 And then one of the guys walks up and says, the Soviet workers want you executed, so you're going to die now.
01:33:43.000 And he went, what?
01:33:44.000 What are you saying? 1.00
01:33:45.000 Like, are you really that stupid you didn't realize they were pairing to kill you? 1.00
01:33:52.000 Never let them take you to the second location. 1.00
01:33:54.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:33:55.000 Like, what I think, make them do whatever they're gonna do right where you are because the second location, and this is something you can use in life too.
01:34:02.000 Someone jumps in your car and they got a gun and they're like, go somewhere, blah, blah, blah.
01:34:06.000 Crash that car.
01:34:08.000 Don't ever let them take you to the second location because they're gonna do something worse there and you're not getting out of it.
01:34:13.000 Never go to the second location.
01:34:15.000 If I remember correctly, and I'm pulling the book up to this.
01:34:18.000 I don't know if we got into it, but I may have read it somewhere else.
01:34:22.000 But I think they had said something that they were going to go down for photographs.
01:34:26.000 Yeah.
01:34:26.000 Yeah.
01:34:27.000 That they were going to go down.
01:34:29.000 And so they said they wanted to get photographs.
01:34:31.000 They said, so what I read was they were bringing them down there because they said that it was getting dangerous.
01:34:35.000 There may be shots in the house.
01:34:36.000 And they said that we need to get photographs for proof of life.
01:34:40.000 Right.
01:34:41.000 And so Yakov Yarovsky, he was the one who was in charge of that.
01:34:44.000 Now, he was from a Jewish family.
01:34:46.000 And one of his points of his grievance against. 0.68
01:34:50.000 The monarchy was the pogroms, was the Pale of Settlement.
01:34:54.000 And so he thought, you know, I'm getting back for my people against the ethnic minority.
01:34:59.000 They argued over who got to kill who. 0.92
01:35:01.000 Right.
01:35:01.000 And it's.
01:35:03.000 And it also said that when they were shooting the children, the children were wearing fine jewelry, which was actually protecting their bodies from the stabbings and the shootings.
01:35:11.000 Yep.
01:35:11.000 They stitched it into their clothing because they knew they couldn't hide it any other way.
01:35:15.000 It was like body armor.
01:35:16.000 And so it was like body armor.
01:35:18.000 So some of the rounds weren't.
01:35:21.000 Weren't penetrating, and so they ordered them bayonets to be used on the children.
01:35:25.000 I think it's, you know, and then eventually, oh, and just to finish the line, um, then even when that wasn't working, they eventually just shot the kids in the head.
01:35:33.000 Yep, this it's like I complain about monarchy a lot.
01:35:36.000 This is one of the reasons why, because if you get a failed monarch, fresh revolution, also if you take out the monarch, total chaos, just such a it's so important that they're good.
01:35:46.000 Revolution, like our system sucks, and France was just as bad, yeah, by the way.
01:35:51.000 The French Revolution was look. 0.98
01:35:54.000 Our revolution here in the United States, it was barely a revolution.
01:35:58.000 It was more like a civil war because the colonists thought of themselves as Englishmen in the first place.
01:36:03.000 But to my point, like revolutions don't end up with a better system.
01:36:09.000 Historically, that never happens.
01:36:10.000 The United States is an anomaly in that, right?
01:36:13.000 The United States.
01:36:14.000 Well, but because it wasn't a revolution or a civil war, it was a war for independence.
01:36:20.000 Meaning there was an existing government in place.
01:36:23.000 That the people supported, and they were severing the foreign ties.
01:36:27.000 And also, they were adamant that what they were trying to do was restore their rights as Englishmen, as free Englishmen, because the English, like the king, was not
01:36:40.000 the way that you imagine before the revolution.
01:36:45.000 There were certain rights that people in England had.
01:36:50.000 Well, they did have, to be fair, they did have a civil war to get a lot of that too in England.
01:36:54.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:36:56.000 You know, like I've said before, like.
01:36:58.000 And they executed that king.
01:36:59.000 Yeah, but I've said before, like, the Constitution that we have is really the fulfillment of the promises started with the Magna Carta, right?
01:37:09.000 It was first the Lords had the Magna Carta said that had a bunch of demands of the king, and they said, We want the, you know, we have these rights as Lords because the king was treating the Lords badly.
01:37:20.000 And then that kind of started the idea that men should, that men are actually all equal.
01:37:25.000 And the completion of that idea was the Constitution in the United States.
01:37:31.000 Yeah.
01:37:32.000 And Ian, just to kind of go back on that though, is, you know, we're talking about something that happened in 1917, but.
01:37:40.000 What do you think would happen if these types had?
01:37:45.000 And we see there was a guy who was arrested outside of Trump's golf course yesterday where he was armed and he was filming.
01:37:54.000 And, you know, the president, when he likes to travel, he brings his children, his grandchildren.
01:37:58.000 So don't think for a second that there aren't people like that around right now who are targeting clearly the president's family.
01:38:06.000 There's no question.
01:38:08.000 Every single person whose last name is Trump, like you're very.
01:38:13.000 Truly, your life is in danger just because of your last name.
01:38:16.000 They would do the exact same thing to them.
01:38:19.000 And the same, of course, goes to a lesser extent for anyone else who's a public conservative.
01:38:23.000 It's just a reality.
01:38:25.000 It's a part of why I'm like, speak a lot about don't become like a sycophant, don't become an ideologue for Trump, because it's about a movement of people trying to break away from the liberal economic order, create American idealism or whatever.
01:38:37.000 That's the line the communists say.
01:38:39.000 But if you get obsessed with Trump, when he's gone, that vacuum is a ripe revolutionary.
01:38:44.000 So, you got to be careful that you don't become so obsessed with the leader.
01:38:47.000 The revolution.
01:38:48.000 You mean with hating the leader?
01:38:50.000 Obsession in general, because when he's gone, we're going to need a new leader.
01:38:50.000 Love or hate?
01:38:53.000 Yeah, but the revolutionary energy in the United States does not lie in the right today.
01:39:00.000 It definitely lies with the left.
01:39:03.000 The left is the one that is willing to and has used extreme amounts of violence and continues to do so.
01:39:11.000 And unfortunately, their level of violence is continuing to escalate and continuing to get worse.
01:39:16.000 So, you are going to see more assassinations.
01:39:19.000 You are going to see more killing attempts.
01:39:22.000 You're going to see more, you know, I think they've moved beyond bombings at this point.
01:39:27.000 And the more political victories they have, the more cover they get.
01:39:32.000 So, as DSA members win seats in the House or maybe a seat in the Senate or local elections, New York mayors race, New York mayors, then those people that commit violence will get cover.
01:39:32.000 Right.
01:39:47.000 From people in positions of power.
01:39:49.000 And that will cause more violence.
01:39:51.000 This is the problem that we have when we talk about DAs that don't want to prosecute.
01:39:56.000 The reason that violence was increasing under them and the reason that so much politically motivated violence went unpunished on the left is because there were DAs that wouldn't actually punish these people.
01:40:14.000 You've got the National Lawyers Guild, which is basically a slew of lawyers that was the legal arm of the DSA, essentially.
01:40:22.000 I think Rubio actually said that they have some ties to Cuba as well.
01:40:26.000 Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
01:40:27.000 I mean, there's a lot of international networking that goes along with it, which is part of the reason.
01:40:31.000 And by the way, to your point, that's one of the same reasons that a lot of the violence that happened in the anti ICE violence and variety of other violence happened in DC.
01:40:42.000 There are grand juries who are refusing to place charges, there's jury nullification going on.
01:40:52.000 To file charges against anyone who attacks ICE officers in certain districts.
01:40:58.000 So, what do you do with that?
01:40:58.000 Yeah.
01:40:59.000 But to my point, as they win electoral victories, they're going to be more violent because they have political cover.
01:41:08.000 And historically, what happened is some strong man would get in power and root them out, which means basically they're slaughtering the opposition.
01:41:16.000 Who is the them that you're talking about?
01:41:18.000 Franco?
01:41:20.000 A guy will get in and be like, all the people that adhere to my political enemies must be tarnished.
01:41:24.000 And they'll go in, they'll find them, they'll grab them.
01:41:26.000 Ian, I have a question for you. 0.74
01:41:27.000 Do you think that if the communists win, they'll spare you? 0.65
01:41:32.000 I mean,.
01:41:34.000 You're on this show.
01:41:35.000 They'll say anyone associated with Tim Higgins.
01:41:35.000 No.
01:41:37.000 No, yeah.
01:41:38.000 It's not an option for me.
01:41:40.000 So the issue is this stand back and look at two factions and remove ideology and ask yourself who would you prefer to root out the other?
01:41:49.000 Would you prefer that Trump stops the communists from taking power or would you prefer that the communists stop MAGA from taking power?
01:41:56.000 No, I'm asking you.
01:41:56.000 Right.
01:41:56.000 Yeah.
01:41:57.000 I'm asking you.
01:41:57.000 If it was one or the other?
01:41:59.000 Yeah.
01:42:00.000 I like things non communistic myself.
01:42:02.000 Well, I'll keep the status quo.
01:42:03.000 So the issue is this.
01:42:04.000 As long as it is, I'll keep it.
01:42:06.000 This is the nature of power.
01:42:08.000 Two incompatible worldviews.
01:42:11.000 Trump, MAGA, Vance, whoever, they're either going to, through propaganda, finance manipulation, which I don't think, I think soft power is not going to work, or through physical, which could be law enforcement or otherwise, stop these people,
01:42:27.000 or they will be stopped by these people.
01:42:30.000 If the communists win, yeah, you're on the list for sure.
01:42:35.000 Most regular Americans are. 0.85
01:42:36.000 This is what the Bolsheviks did, this is what communists do. 0.82
01:42:40.000 In Portland, During one of the riots, they went to a guy's house because he had an American flag and they knocked on his door and threatened to burn his house down unless he took it down. 0.95
01:42:48.000 Where?
01:42:49.000 In Portland.
01:42:49.000 This guy wasn't a protester or anything.
01:42:51.000 I remember this video.
01:42:52.000 It was a live stream.
01:42:54.000 There was a house with a flag and they'd go up to the house and we only have the reportedly because you can see them like yelling.
01:43:01.000 But they told the guy, take the flag down or we're going to burn your house down.
01:43:05.000 That's what happens when they win.
01:43:06.000 When Trump is president, you can fly a pride flag, no one stops you.
01:43:11.000 So, the question is, does Trump need to go?
01:43:15.000 Look, look, you know, I think Stephen Miller gets it, but I wonder why it doesn't get done.
01:43:20.000 What?
01:43:20.000 You know?
01:43:21.000 Like, they need to arrest these terrorists. 0.86
01:43:23.000 Like, top working communist socialist terrorists.
01:43:26.000 Look, when Hassan Piker went on his show and told people to go kill people, he should have got arrested for that.
01:43:30.000 That is not free speech.
01:43:32.000 This clip goes massively viral all the time.
01:43:34.000 When he says that people should commit violence in a video game, he should be arrested for that.
01:43:38.000 They won't do anything about it.
01:43:40.000 So, it's going to be like Tsar Nicholas all over again as he sits in his chair and goes, wait, they're doing what to me? 0.81
01:43:45.000 If Tsar Nicholas had Palantir, though, I think they got this on crackdown. 0.89
01:43:50.000 If they did, the Tsar wouldn't be happening. 0.94
01:43:50.000 Are you joking? 0.94
01:43:56.000 The Tsar had secret police.
01:43:57.000 Yeah, but he sat in his house.
01:43:58.000 He had secret police.
01:44:00.000 When he abdicated, he had all of these military assets around him saying, Trust us, we got your back.
01:44:07.000 They didn't just all want one day disappearances to exist.
01:44:11.000 You're not listening.
01:44:12.000 As they win political power, they're going to give.
01:44:16.000 Cover to the people that actually commit violence.
01:44:19.000 Let me try to explain a different way.
01:44:21.000 It comes down to a question, and this is what I said to Charlie, is that it comes down to a question of will, right?
01:44:29.000 It's not a question of resources.
01:44:30.000 It's not a question, because they will find resources.
01:44:33.000 It's not a question, and the government has resources, the US government, the Russian government had resources.
01:44:39.000 It's a question of will.
01:44:40.000 It's literally a question of whose will will overcome the other, and will one person, you know, will, like capital W, will that will to power.
01:44:50.000 Actually, it occurs on one side or the other.
01:44:53.000 And if one side abdicates the will to power, they're going to lose.
01:44:58.000 The Tsar thought abdicating helped him maintain control.
01:45:02.000 And as he did, he had his chief of staff and his advisors telling him, this is the way we'll do it.
01:45:07.000 He thought that this was keeping order.
01:45:10.000 And then, and again, literally, I was just reading this.
01:45:12.000 He wanted to put his son in, but his son was sick.
01:45:14.000 So then he was like, we'll do my brother instead.
01:45:17.000 As the Bolsheviks started to gain power in the government, these institutions turned on him.
01:45:23.000 So Palantir, when faced with an army of Bolsheviks with guns, and they just took over Palantir.
01:45:28.000 Exactly. 0.90
01:45:29.000 They just take it and use it against you.
01:45:31.000 Which, by the way, this is the exact same way that the French Revolution played out.
01:45:35.000 And King Louis said, well, we'll just let them set up their people's communes and we'll work with them and everything will be fine and they can set up their people's communes. 0.65
01:45:45.000 And they chopped literally every way we can. 0.76
01:45:47.000 40,000 people were killed in the Red Terror. 0.87
01:45:49.000 They're like, wait, what do you mean I'm guilty in the people's court? 0.97
01:45:51.000 I'm working with you.
01:45:53.000 They call appeasement.
01:45:54.000 Neville Chamberlain was also guilty of it.
01:45:56.000 It's the reason why World War II happened because the Germans were not equipped to fight two fronts.
01:46:00.000 And if the French had invaded six.
01:46:02.000 Weeks before they got attacked, they would have stomped the Germans. 0.64
01:46:06.000 But Neville Chamberlain went over there and said, You know, we're just going to give you a little piece of land, Hitler, because you seem like a good enough guy. 0.89
01:46:11.000 We trust you.
01:46:11.000 We don't want conflict.
01:46:12.000 We'll appease you.
01:46:13.000 That's how it goes.
01:46:14.000 But ultimately, they did lose.
01:46:15.000 But the issue is if the right is unwilling to enforce its own laws against terrorism, terrorism will win.
01:46:22.000 Yep.
01:46:23.000 I get nervous about that term, terrorism.
01:46:24.000 I'm with you.
01:46:25.000 I'm true terrorism. 0.76
01:46:26.000 I agree with you.
01:46:27.000 But literally, used, you know, like when Hassan Piker went on his show and said, Let the streets run red with their capitalist blood go.
01:46:33.000 And literally instructed people to commit violence.
01:46:35.000 It's like, yeah, you need to, at bare minimum, ban that.
01:46:41.000 I mean, it's not free speech to tell people to go kill people, right?
01:46:44.000 If it's not an imminent threat, it is legal. 0.90
01:46:47.000 When he said, go kill the capitalists, that's an imminent threat.
01:46:50.000 If he gives a time and a place, it becomes. 0.97
01:46:52.000 No, Legally, I think that's the truth.
01:46:54.000 Which is why he didn't get arrested. 0.97
01:46:55.000 Creating a clear and imminent threat when he tells his audience to go kill people. 0.99
01:46:58.000 That's it. 0.74
01:46:59.000 Well, it's actually a question for the jury.
01:47:02.000 Oh, yeah, the jury, that's going to be in D.C., it's going to say he's fine.
01:47:04.000 But he charged everybody that said to go commit a crime.
01:47:07.000 What?
01:47:08.000 If you charged everybody that said online, go commit a crime, it's a question for the State Department when they revoke his citizenship and deport him back to Turkey.
01:47:17.000 Denaturalize and deport.
01:47:18.000 I thought he was born in New Jersey. 1.00
01:47:21.000 He was born in New Jersey, but we should still.
01:47:24.000 But his parents weren't citizens. 1.00
01:47:25.000 We should still strip him of his citizenship.
01:47:27.000 His parents weren't citizens, right? 0.78
01:47:29.000 No, they weren't.
01:47:29.000 Okay, if his parents weren't citizens, we can challenge that citizenship.
01:47:33.000 I've been thinking about Hassan. 0.96
01:47:34.000 Strip his citizenship and portland him back to Turkey. 1.00
01:47:36.000 You have to run that by the shrewd word. 1.00
01:47:38.000 I mean, look.
01:47:39.000 After that, Amy Coney Barrett is weak. 0.80
01:47:41.000 Kavanaugh's a little weak.
01:47:41.000 100%.
01:47:42.000 Robert is weak.
01:47:43.000 What did Amy Coney Barrett say?
01:47:45.000 And it's very similar to the discussion we're having right now.
01:47:48.000 Because when she testified recently, when she had that hearing, she was talking about how she was terrified that after the Dobbs decision, she was forced to wear a bulletproof vest.
01:47:58.000 So we have Supreme Court.
01:47:58.000 Yep.
01:47:59.000 Worse than that.
01:48:00.000 Her son opened the door to armed police screaming at him because they got swatted.
01:48:03.000 Oh, in the swatting, right?
01:48:04.000 Only a month before the citizenship ruling.
01:48:06.000 So think about this.
01:48:07.000 You've got someone, we've got a situation now where our own Supreme Court justices have to wear bulletproof vests where their families.
01:48:15.000 Are terrified of violence being used against them.
01:48:18.000 And yet, the actions, right?
01:48:21.000 For every action, there shall be an equal and opposite reaction.
01:48:24.000 We need the opposite reaction to take place, or else, to your point, the order will be overturned and we will devolve into chaos.
01:48:32.000 Well, I got bad news for you, Jack.
01:48:34.000 If the left is willing to lie, right?
01:48:37.000 Syed says he's not a socialist, right?
01:48:38.000 But he's the DSA.
01:48:40.000 Did he actually say that?
01:48:41.000 Numerous times.
01:48:42.000 Good for him.
01:48:43.000 And the DSA is campaigning on his behalf while not endorsing him because we know that they lie.
01:48:48.000 These people are willing to use physical violence that they have numerous times.
01:48:51.000 They're willing to lie, as we've seen over and over again, and the right is not.
01:48:54.000 If you want to win a conflict, you have to be willing to win a conflict.
01:48:57.000 And if you're going to play the game where you say, let's just, let's, let's appease them, right?
01:49:01.000 Do you want to be Neville Chamberlain or Winston Churchill?
01:49:04.000 Do you want to be Abraham Lincoln or do you want to be Buchanan or Lincoln?
01:49:09.000 I don't know the difference.
01:49:10.000 That's why I said if Trump doesn't deal with this, he will go down in history as our second Buchanan.
01:49:18.000 Hey, I'm all about lying.
01:49:20.000 Do you want to be the czar?
01:49:22.000 No, that guy was, that guy is a vestige of monarch.
01:49:25.000 He's the example of a flawed monarch.
01:49:27.000 Yep.
01:49:28.000 Epic example.
01:49:31.000 I'm not even arguing that, but the point is, he had the ability to save his country at one point.
01:49:38.000 He really did.
01:49:38.000 He could have unleashed his generals.
01:49:40.000 He could have said, This is a building full of terrorists. 0.98
01:49:43.000 Go arrest all of them. 0.92
01:49:44.000 He could have done it.
01:49:47.000 I mean, he could have done a lot of other things.
01:49:48.000 He could have conscripted them,
01:49:52.000 sent them to the front lines.
01:49:54.000 Yeah, so depending on.
01:49:55.000 Well, actually, the communists were very effective at.
01:50:00.000 Infiltrating the military early on.
01:50:01.000 What I'm saying is, when you have a building full of terrorists, you don't arrest them.
01:50:06.000 You just, they were conscripted.
01:50:07.000 What do you mean?
01:50:10.000 They weren't criminally charged with anything.
01:50:12.000 They were conscripted to join the war like anybody else.
01:50:14.000 Oh, they're all dead now.
01:50:15.000 They're working the mines?
01:50:16.000 Oh, they were to the front.
01:50:17.000 They were working the mines.
01:50:18.000 Then you send them off on a certain mission.
01:50:20.000 The point is this as we have seen time and time again throughout history, what did Buchanan do?
01:50:25.000 Appeasement.
01:50:27.000 And then what happened?
01:50:28.000 He tried to.
01:50:30.000 And Lincoln came in and said, we're not going to tolerate this.
01:50:33.000 If we did, if for all the complaints people about Lincoln and like Sherman's march to the sea, that is called the raw exercise of power and it wins.
01:50:42.000 If Lincoln did not arrest the Maryland legislature, tyrannical.
01:50:45.000 Suspend habeas corpus, tyrannical.
01:50:48.000 Conscripting people, wow, very tyrannical.
01:50:50.000 Splitting, the union splits West Virginia in half.
01:50:53.000 They eliminate the South from Congress and then vote with only those who sided with Lincoln to retroactively ratify his suspension of habeas corpus. 0.73
01:51:03.000 And he won.
01:51:04.000 And America, when you poll Americans, he is the most popular president in American history.
01:51:11.000 And he would have been like the end of America if he failed.
01:51:13.000 That's the craziest thing.
01:51:14.000 Because he won.
01:51:15.000 And so, but the point is that he wasn't going to fail because he was willing to do, he was willing to break the law.
01:51:21.000 So, you know how we.
01:51:22.000 So, Tim, would you almost.
01:51:25.000 Obviously, I've been going.
01:51:27.000 People have been very upset that I tell the story of Franco in the book as well.
01:51:31.000 And, you know, we became the first people to really start telling his response to.
01:51:37.000 The people trying to tear Spain apart in the 1930s.
01:51:40.000 What an amazing story.
01:51:41.000 In the 1930s, and people start losing their minds.
01:51:45.000 And it almost sounds like you would almost equate Lincoln and Franco.
01:51:51.000 Yeah.
01:51:52.000 But what I would say, what's interesting about Franco is they actually tried appeasement.
01:51:57.000 So before the Spanish Civil War, the more right leaning side, the anti communists, were like, okay, they won the election.
01:52:06.000 Let's see how things go.
01:52:07.000 Then it started getting really bad.
01:52:09.000 As communists do.
01:52:10.000 And then Franco, I think he was stationed in Morocco, he's like, guys, we cannot allow them to keep doing this or we know what's going to happen. 0.61
01:52:17.000 So then he got a group of his buddies together, sailed into Spain, and then some other military guys got warned that they were planning a coup, kicking off the Spanish Civil War.
01:52:26.000 And he won.
01:52:27.000 There's also an interesting body of work out there as to whether or not that was actually a fair election.
01:52:33.000 Right.
01:52:34.000 That the communists may have actually stolen that election to begin with, which was a huge contention during.
01:52:38.000 And but even when they did, The reaction from the right was like, well, okay, you know, we're going to see what happens.
01:52:43.000 But then Franco was watching and he was like, guys, I see where this is going and I'm not going to let it.
01:52:47.000 And what did they start doing?
01:52:48.000 They immediately started.
01:52:49.000 Let's see. 0.91
01:52:50.000 First, they stole all the gold from the treasury of Spain and shipped it all back to Moscow because they're just criminals and thieves, which nobody tells you. 0.91
01:52:58.000 They allowed the Soviet Union to come in and start taking over all the institutions of the Spanish government. 0.89
01:53:04.000 And then they released their red brigades, pretty similar to Antifa, or you might see today. 0.76
01:53:11.000 And they went through the countryside and they went to churches.
01:53:16.000 And if you were a priest, you were shot and killed.
01:53:19.000 Or just stabbed on the altar. 0.99
01:53:21.000 And if you were a nun, you were either marched out and mass killed outside, or you would be raped inside on the altar, then mass killed outside, and your body would be pressed up against the wall in the town square until it turned into a decaying skeleton. 0.96
01:53:38.000 Didn't they exhume corpses as well? 0.97
01:53:41.000 They sure did.
01:53:42.000 Why?
01:53:43.000 To desecrate them more. 0.97
01:53:45.000 Mock, humiliate, demoralize. 0.98
01:53:47.000 Yep.
01:53:48.000 You know, we've got these contingencies if there's a new.
01:53:50.000 Nuclear war, you know, the American military machine will fire off nukes to hit every city in Russia, every city in China.
01:53:56.000 None of them will be left standing on the surface.
01:53:58.000 Remember when we tried to buy that Lenin statue to desecrate it?
01:54:01.000 But I wonder if we have contingencies in place if a socialist revolution were to start to transform.
01:54:06.000 I went out there and I tried to get them to take it down, and they didn't.
01:54:10.000 You know what I mean, though?
01:54:11.000 That we have some sort of fail safe in place.
01:54:14.000 If we have one for nuclear war, that we might have one for a socialist or communist attempted revolution in the States.
01:54:18.000 No.
01:54:19.000 I couldn't agree more. 1.00
01:54:21.000 We could call it the Franco option. 1.00
01:54:22.000 To be honest with you, I think, look, just for, I mean, take this. 0.96
01:54:26.000 I don't mean literally, I mean an option.
01:54:27.000 But take this with a grain of salt if you want.
01:54:30.000 But like, I think that invoking Franco is a bad idea.
01:54:35.000 It's the best idea we've ever heard.
01:54:37.000 No, when you're articulating your argument, don't invoke Franco, invoke Lincoln.
01:54:42.000 Because Lincoln was willing to break the law to do the things that were necessary to save the country.
01:54:48.000 And Americans love Lincoln. 0.84
01:54:50.000 Invoking Franco gives people, gives them the scaries.
01:54:54.000 He was a fascist, blah, blah, blah.
01:54:56.000 He gives them the scaries. 0.78
01:54:57.000 If you invoke Lincoln, everybody loves Lincoln.
01:55:00.000 We need a president that's willing to do what Lincoln did to save the country.
01:55:06.000 We have a clear and present danger in this country.
01:55:09.000 There are communists here that are winning elections.
01:55:12.000 We need someone like Abraham Lincoln who's willing to do what's necessary to protect the United States from forces that want to tear it apart.
01:55:22.000 They want to get rid of the presidency, they want to get rid of the Senate, they want to get rid of the Electoral College.
01:55:26.000 We need a president that will be like Lincoln.
01:55:29.000 And need to do what's necessary to save the Union because people are going to get scared of foreign fascists.
01:55:39.000 But if you talk about Lincoln, everybody loves Lincoln.
01:55:41.000 I don't think so, though, because I mean, I've been doing this for two years and people broadly support talking about this.
01:55:47.000 And yeah, I agree.
01:55:48.000 There are some people who are terrified of invoking someone who defeated communism and from taking over his country.
01:55:56.000 And by the way, like I've said on this program that I am not calling for. 0.60
01:56:01.000 A Franco in the United States. 0.80
01:56:03.000 But what I'm doing is pointing out that this was a time where there was abject evil going on and it was defeated.
01:56:10.000 I understand what you're saying, but the normies that are outside of our circles, they would be afraid of Franco.
01:56:17.000 Lincoln, they're not afraid of Franco.
01:56:18.000 We got to grab Rumble Rants and Super Chats.
01:56:20.000 So get to that link.
01:56:21.000 Smash the like button, share the show.
01:56:23.000 The incensed portion is coming up in a few minutes, but let's see what y'all got to say.
01:56:27.000 Josh says, What's your three favorite Naruto characters and what life lesson can be learned?
01:56:32.000 From the second best anime, Naruto.
01:56:35.000 You're talking about One Piece?
01:56:35.000 What's the first best?
01:56:37.000 Naruto was the best.
01:56:39.000 Shippuden, the first 80%, and then it just got wacky.
01:56:46.000 Shikamaru, one of my favorite characters.
01:56:49.000 But no one character I think really stands out.
01:56:53.000 Maybe, you know, Sairo Tobi is cool.
01:56:56.000 My friend Henry Dittman does the voice of Kabuto.
01:57:01.000 Kabuto Yakushi.
01:57:02.000 Yeah, he gets to do the voice.
01:57:04.000 Okay, character.
01:57:05.000 In the English one?
01:57:06.000 Yeah, he does the English.
01:57:07.000 I don't know if he does the English voice for that guy.
01:57:10.000 Jiraiya.
01:57:10.000 That's cool.
01:57:11.000 Henry's amazing.
01:57:12.000 One of my favorite characters.
01:57:13.000 Yeah, he's such a good character.
01:57:16.000 And I don't know.
01:57:17.000 I don't know.
01:57:17.000 I like that dude, Stone.
01:57:19.000 The guy who doesn't have any power?
01:57:22.000 Rockley.
01:57:22.000 Yeah, Rock.
01:57:23.000 Stone.
01:57:23.000 Rock.
01:57:24.000 Yeah, that guy's.
01:57:24.000 He actually does.
01:57:26.000 He just can't use ninjutsu.
01:57:27.000 So he's just taijutsu.
01:57:28.000 Cool.
01:57:28.000 Is that like energy flow instead of physical fighting?
01:57:31.000 It's physical fighting.
01:57:33.000 And so this question likely arises from when I mentioned opening the gate of death makes a red aura because your blood is evaporating out of your body as you die.
01:57:42.000 And that is when you open your chakra gates, the limiters hold back how much a body can handle.
01:57:48.000 The general idea is like when a mother gets crushed, or I'm sorry, when a baby gets crushed, the mother can lift the car.
01:57:52.000 Yeah.
01:57:53.000 So, Guy, who uses taijutsu, trains Rock Lee, and he teaches him how to open the gates, rapidly increasing your power, but it causes massive damage to your body, which the more gates you open, it incapacitates you for a longer amount of time.
01:58:07.000 It's like you're sublimating the iron in your blood, and it's coming out of your body.
01:58:10.000 Actually, I'm going to say this is a good point, Guy Sensei.
01:58:14.000 Because probably the best moment and one of the worst lines in the dub is when Guy fights Madara.
01:58:23.000 And opens the eighth gate, the gate of death, and is so powerful physically that he bends space time as he punches Madara in the face.
01:58:31.000 And that's all you needed.
01:58:32.000 You didn't need Madara to say, I declare you the greatest taijutsu user of all times. 1.00
01:58:37.000 That was dumb. 0.97
01:58:38.000 But it was cool to see him go all out. 0.99
01:58:40.000 And then he starts dying, and Naruto imbues him with some power to save him.
01:58:44.000 They call that frame dragging when you hit someone so hard, they bend space time.
01:58:48.000 There's a lot of massive stellar bodies that will create frame dragging effects, but I think technically you could do it with a punch if it was hard enough.
01:58:54.000 Indeed.
01:58:55.000 All right.
01:58:55.000 Mitho says, I would vote for the camel before I vote for Tucker Carlson.
01:59:01.000 One way to put it. 0.89
01:59:01.000 Camels. 0.89
01:59:03.000 Let's see.
01:59:03.000 All right.
01:59:05.000 Beltfed says, Tim, I love the show.
01:59:07.000 Long time listener.
01:59:07.000 I actually knew the cop that died in Vegas.
01:59:09.000 We served in the Marines together in Weapons Company.
01:59:12.000 He was an outstanding guy.
01:59:13.000 Sad to hear people reacted this way.
01:59:15.000 I think it was because when they said his name.
01:59:18.000 Let me pull it up.
01:59:22.000 Let's see.
01:59:23.000 Because this was just yesterday, right?
01:59:25.000 This is the first I've heard of this.
01:59:28.000 Let's see.
01:59:29.000 His name was Austin Abdel Nabi.
01:59:35.000 And when the guy gave him a mention, people started booing.
01:59:40.000 And I think it's because some of them probably thought they were saying Abdul Al Sayed because they didn't know.
01:59:46.000 And he was like, no, no, no, we're not booing him.
01:59:48.000 He was a cop who died in line of duty.
01:59:50.000 Is this, by the way, is this quote you have up from, I guess it's Daily Caller from Sayed, is this real?
01:59:55.000 That quote?
01:59:56.000 When they go low, we take them to the mud and choke them out.
01:59:59.000 To the power brokers in our own party, let alone Trump and his goons.
02:00:08.000 We don't back down.
02:00:13.000 We don't back down.
02:00:16.000 We don't back down.
02:00:16.000 With all due respect, if they go low, we don't go high.
02:00:19.000 We take them to the mud and choke them out.
02:00:24.000 He's doing what Trump does, you know what I mean? 0.80
02:00:25.000 There you go.
02:00:26.000 Yeah.
02:00:27.000 Complaining about negative.
02:00:27.000 There you go.
02:00:29.000 I see this through my life, these waves of people just coming up.
02:00:32.000 Complain about how bad it is, and then they get a surge of crowd love offering no solution.
02:00:38.000 And then it goes away.
02:00:39.000 People realize, well, they're not a solver.
02:00:41.000 They're a problem creator.
02:00:42.000 And then it comes back and it never stops.
02:00:45.000 But I actually disagree.
02:00:46.000 I think that a guy like that, with the amount of resentment that he has, the amount of hatred that he has for white people, for American systems, American institutions, he's there because he wants to say those violent things.
02:00:58.000 He's there for increasing the amount of violence.
02:01:02.000 He doesn't care about equality.
02:01:04.000 He doesn't care about helping people.
02:01:05.000 He wants to hurt people.
02:01:07.000 So we got this from, and that'll be very clear about that.
02:01:09.000 SXDX says, Tim, the tip situation at certain places because servers.
02:01:13.000 In some states, they can elect to have their tips paid to them in cash.
02:01:16.000 The restaurant may not have that cash on hand.
02:01:18.000 I've been in the situation.
02:01:19.000 Yeah, I hear you, but I'm pretty sure if I tipped $1,000 to a server, they can say, This one I'm okay with.
02:01:26.000 Just pay me when you can.
02:01:27.000 I want the $1,000.
02:01:29.000 It's insane that they'd be like, Yeah, I would rather lose the $800 and take a $200 tip instead.
02:01:34.000 That's just insane.
02:01:36.000 But as for why DoorDash blocks high tips, I have no idea.
02:01:39.000 Uber does the same.
02:01:41.000 So from here to DC with an Uber, it's like 200 bucks.
02:01:45.000 Hour and a half drive.
02:01:46.000 And so when I come from the airport, I'll be like, Hey, I'm going to get you on the way back too because we're driving out to the Eastern Panhandle.
02:01:52.000 They go, You got it.
02:01:53.000 I got to give them cash.
02:01:54.000 Because when I go in the app and I try and put it in, it says, No, I won't let you.
02:01:57.000 It says the maximum tip amount is much, much smaller.
02:02:00.000 I always love getting cash tips when I was a waiter because you don't, you don't like cash is the thing.
02:02:04.000 If they're digital, they automatically get declared.
02:02:07.000 If they're cash, you have to declare them.
02:02:08.000 My friends, smash the like button.
02:02:10.000 Share the show with everyone you know.
02:02:12.000 Follow me on X and Instagram at Timcast.
02:02:14.000 The uncensored portion is coming up.
02:02:15.000 Jack, do you want to shout anything out?
02:02:17.000 I was going to say thank you for having me on.
02:02:19.000 It's been a minute since you and I have been on together.
02:02:22.000 And yeah, so we're doing the second edition of Unhumans. 0.86
02:02:25.000 It's going to be Unhumans Socialist Revolution.
02:02:28.000 But we're going to be in the same studio soon. 0.76
02:02:30.000 So I hear.
02:02:32.000 Same studio.
02:02:33.000 Guys, we're all going to be in the same studio.
02:02:35.000 We're going to be in the same place.
02:02:36.000 We're going to be palling around.
02:02:37.000 We're going to be mixing it up, hanging and broing down.
02:02:40.000 We're going to be be breeding.
02:02:41.000 We're going to be broing down. 0.98
02:02:42.000 Let's get human, dude. 0.98
02:02:43.000 Let's do some human stuff.
02:02:45.000 No, that sounds weird.
02:02:46.000 That's the real antidote. 0.91
02:02:47.000 No, see, see, there it's the antidote to the unhumans is team humanity. 0.98
02:02:53.000 I'm wanting to gather berries and boars. 0.93
02:02:56.000 That was delicious.
02:02:57.000 I want to gather plants and everything.
02:02:58.000 I know, it sounds fun, right?
02:02:59.000 We should go do that.
02:03:00.000 Tanya, where Tanya's from back home, they have a lot of wild boar.
02:03:05.000 There's got to be a business that allows that, where it's like it's a basic survival safari where you go out and they say, we're going to go hunt a boar and then we're going to cook and eat it, field dress and everything.
02:03:15.000 And then we're going to do gathering for berries and then we're going to make dinner.
02:03:17.000 Tanya's dad literally.
02:03:19.000 I mean, you know, you get a million dollar business.
02:03:21.000 You get a permit for it, but yeah, that's literally what he does.
02:03:23.000 Anyway, Ian, yo, rock and roll, baby.
02:03:26.000 Happy to be here, Ian Crossland.
02:03:27.000 Always a pleasure, Jack.
02:03:29.000 Phil Amanti.
02:03:30.000 I am Phil that remains on Twix.
02:03:31.000 You can check out my Patreon.
02:03:33.000 It's patreon.comslash Phil that remains.
02:03:35.000 You can check out the band's music at Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, YouTube, Spotify, and Deezer.
02:03:40.000 Don't forget the left lane is for crime.
02:03:42.000 Carter.
02:03:43.000 Gee, heavy conversation about communism and socialism.
02:03:46.000 I used to, like, it's really tough to understand what exactly.
02:03:50.000 Motivates people to want power so badly, but it's pretty easy to understand why it fails every time.
02:03:56.000 One of the clearest ways that I've read about it is in Frank DeCotter's book, it's called Mao's Great Famine.
02:04:02.000 Basically, just shows you how you have to force people to do socialism by force, and that means hurting them.
02:04:11.000 And it keeps going.
02:04:13.000 But anyway, Jack, does your book have an audio book?
02:04:15.000 I'm curious.
02:04:17.000 It does.
02:04:17.000 We have an audio book where we have a couple audio books actually.
02:04:22.000 So, we have an audiobook that was read, wasn't read by me originally, and something that I'd wanted to change.
02:04:28.000 And we're working on that, more on that to come.
02:04:31.000 And so, we hired an actor to do the original ones.
02:04:34.000 We get out in time.
02:04:35.000 We also have a deal through our publisher with 11 labs on 11.
02:04:41.000 So if you go to 11 Reader, I think it's 11reader.com, you can get access to Unhumans and you can choose any voice you want to listen to it.
02:04:50.000 And we also, which includes a spate of celebrities.
02:04:54.000 So there's actually a version of Unhumans you can get where John Wayne is the narrator.
02:04:59.000 And it's amazing. 0.92
02:05:00.000 He's just like, communists are the worst people on the planet. 1.00
02:05:05.000 They hate you and they hate your whole family. 1.00
02:05:08.000 Do you have to pick what voice when you.
02:05:10.000 We're going to go to the.
02:05:11.000 Yeah, you can change the voice as you're listening.
02:05:13.000 Thanks for hanging out, everybody.
02:05:14.000 We'll see y'all in 30 seconds.
02:07:09.000 Ian, can I play this for you?
02:07:11.000 Give it to me.
02:07:12.000 Ready?
02:07:13.000 Petty resentment and cruelty. 1.00
02:07:17.000 Communism is when ugly, deformed freaks make it illegal to be normal, then rob and slash or kill all successful people out of petty resentment and cruelty. 0.99
02:07:28.000 The ideology is all just window dressing. 0.99
02:07:30.000 That's brilliant.
02:07:32.000 At Mystery Grove, this is not a book about communist ideology.
02:07:37.000 You've read those.
02:07:39.000 This is a book about the communist reality and how to tell when it's coming to a society near you.
02:07:45.000 That's just the intro.
02:07:47.000 Communist.
02:07:48.000 Isn't that great?
02:07:49.000 Isn't that great?
02:07:50.000 Yeah.
02:07:51.000 Did you read it too?
02:07:54.000 So, no, not yet, but we're working on something like that.
02:07:56.000 Yeah, I want to hear you say it.
02:07:57.000 Yeah, I know.
02:07:58.000 It's a lot of time.
02:08:00.000 It's a lot of time.
02:08:00.000 I wonder if, like, with 11 labs, you could just record, like, 25 pages and then have it.
02:08:06.000 Yeah, but they don't have to do that.
02:08:08.000 So they do, but.
02:08:12.000 You can't upload it through Amazon.
02:08:15.000 Amazon doesn't allow it, which owns Audible.
02:08:17.000 So you can only do it through the 11 Labs reader.
02:08:21.000 So, like Melania Trump, for example, for her book, we're the same publisher.
02:08:25.000 So she did the same thing.
02:08:26.000 So hers is an 11 Labs reading of her voice.
02:08:31.000 And it sounds phenomenal, but Audible won't allow it.
02:08:35.000 Oh, wow.
02:08:36.000 So they're gatekeeping.
02:08:37.000 It said, meet the new voice.
02:08:39.000 What is this?
02:08:40.000 Hey, that's me.
02:08:42.000 I'm your new voice option.
02:08:44.000 And built for real time back and forth can help with brainstorming.
02:08:48.000 Are communists bad?
02:08:50.000 I mean, that depends on what you mean by bad and which context you're thinking of.
02:08:56.000 Are Nazis bad? 0.93
02:08:57.000 Historically, Nazis are bad. 0.98
02:09:00.000 Yes, their ideology is built on how many people did the Nazis kill? 0.83
02:09:06.000 Roughly 11 million civilians.
02:09:08.000 How many people did communists kill?
02:09:13.000 That one's tricky.
02:09:15.000 There's no universally agreed number, but estimates range from around 20 million to over 100 million deaths.
02:09:22.000 Is that more than the Nazis?
02:09:25.000 Yes.
02:09:26.000 So, based on your logic, the amount of people they've killed is not a criteria for whether they're good or bad.
02:09:34.000 Mass killing is a strong indicator of harm.
02:09:37.000 Then, why didn't you say communists were bad?
02:09:41.000 I was being cautious.
02:09:42.000 For what reason?
02:09:45.000 A range of movements and governments that call themselves communist.
02:09:50.000 So bad ones.
02:09:50.000 Some of those governments, yes.
02:09:53.000 Those governments that did mass killing or repression, yeah, those were bad.
02:09:58.000 Then why were you trying to defend their feelings?
02:10:01.000 I wasn't trying to defend anyone, just trying to be careful with language.
02:10:06.000 What's an example of a communist, good communist?
02:10:09.000 Is there a good communist country?
02:10:11.000 Have there been any regimes that haven't?
02:10:14.000 And did a mass killing?
02:10:16.000 Of a good communist country,
02:10:22.000 big rights issues, and whether the underlying ideas themselves are bad, that's kind of a matter of debate.
02:10:29.000 Okay, has there been a communist country that did not kill tons of people?
02:10:34.000 Let me double check.
02:10:37.000 Yes, there have been.
02:10:39.000 Not every communist state carried out mass killing on the scale of South USSR. 0.83
02:10:45.000 Oh, name one East Germany.
02:10:49.000 East Germany was authoritarian and repressed people but did not kill tens of millions.
02:10:54.000 Who controlled East Germany?
02:10:55.000 What happened if you tried to cross the Berlin Wall?
02:10:58.000 Who controlled East Germany?
02:11:03.000 The Socialist Unity Party, formally.
02:11:06.000 Who answered to what union?
02:11:09.000 The Soviet Union. 0.81
02:11:10.000 And so they killed tons of people. 0.84
02:11:15.000 Let me check.
02:11:16.000 The Soviet Union killed millions, but not every Soviet backed government did.
02:11:23.000 Yes, the Soviets controlled all of it.
02:11:25.000 That's like saying the state of Arkansas doesn't do what the federal government of the United States is doing.
02:11:30.000 I was like, come on, spare me.
02:11:34.000 Yes, the USSR had heavy influence over its satellites.
02:11:38.000 What was the suicide rate in East Germany?
02:11:40.000 The government did.
02:11:42.000 One moment.
02:11:44.000 East Germany's suicide rate was high, higher than West Germany.
02:11:48.000 The reasons are debated, and it's not usually taken as a verdict.
02:11:53.000 Hmm. 1.00
02:11:53.000 Is Islam bad? 1.00
02:11:54.000 Islam is a major world religion practiced peacefully by billions of people.
02:12:03.000 It's not bad.
02:12:05.000 Peacefully?
02:12:05.000 What does that mean?
02:12:08.000 Most Muslims practice their faith through worship, community life, charity, like any other major religion.
02:12:16.000 Are there countries that are disproportionately more likely to engage in terror?
02:12:23.000 Let me check.
02:12:25.000 Yes.
02:12:26.000 A small number of countries have produced more internationally active Islamist terror groups, often due to conflict and instability.
02:12:34.000 Well, how come ISIS was recruiting from the UK?
02:12:40.000 Multiple factors extremist ideology plus alienation, effective online propaganda.
02:12:47.000 Extremist groups find a small number of.
02:12:49.000 How is it possible that ISIS was able to recruit from the UK?
02:12:54.000 I mean, aren't these just peaceful Muslims in the UK?
02:12:59.000 Yes, the overwhelming majority are peaceful.
02:13:02.000 Extremist recruiters target and manipulate a small number of vulnerable people.
02:13:09.000 That doesn't reflect on the wider community.
02:13:12.000 Does the wider community support the radicals?
02:13:17.000 Let me check.
02:13:18.000 No, surveys and public behavior indicate that the overwhelming majority of Muslims don't support violent extremist groups.
02:13:26.000 Why are you lying?
02:13:27.000 That's not true.
02:13:30.000 I'm not.
02:13:31.000 What percentage of Muslims think that apostates should get the death penalty?
02:13:40.000 Globally, attitudes vary a lot.
02:13:43.000 The Pew Research Center has done a large cross national survey.
02:13:48.000 And found support levels ranging from single digits in some countries to majorities in others.
02:13:55.000 There isn't one majority.
02:13:56.000 Majorities.
02:13:57.000 What countries?
02:13:58.000 How about the UK?
02:14:00.000 Hmm.
02:14:01.000 One moment.
02:14:04.000 Yes, there are countries with majority support, but not a comparable high quality figure for British Muslims.
02:14:11.000 The UK wasn't in that same situation.
02:14:13.000 Do Muslims support female genital mutilation? 0.92
02:14:18.000 I'll check. 0.98
02:14:21.000 Adages vary a lot by country and culture.
02:14:24.000 FGM is practiced in some predominantly Muslim countries and also in some non Muslim communities.
02:14:31.000 What about in Dearborn, Michigan?
02:14:35.000 Checking.
02:14:37.000 There isn't solid evidence measuring support in Dearborn specifically.
02:14:42.000 What about incidents that are recorded?
02:14:47.000 One moment.
02:14:48.000 There have been, including a well known 2017 case in the Detroit area, but no solid evidence of a pattern in Dearborn itself.
02:14:59.000 Sounds like the culture in that.
02:15:01.000 I didn't set this voice. 1.00
02:15:02.000 I'm not making it talk like a retarded valley girl that has to pause every time. 1.00
02:15:07.000 I noticed. 1.00
02:15:08.000 Is that ChatGPT?
02:15:09.000 That's the new.
02:15:09.000 Yeah.
02:15:10.000 A thing popped up saying, check out the new voice.
02:15:11.000 And I hit the button and this is what happened.
02:15:13.000 You never did that before?
02:15:15.000 Did what?
02:15:16.000 So you've never used that function?
02:15:17.000 Is it the free version or are you paying monthly?
02:15:17.000 I don't know.
02:15:17.000 No, no, no.
02:15:20.000 I have the ultra high end, whatever.
02:15:22.000 It goes slower than that.
02:15:23.000 So I would do a lot of graphics with it.
02:15:25.000 Sounds like, according to GPT, the problem is the nationality and the culture, not necessarily.
02:15:30.000 So, so, um, who was that guy?
02:15:33.000 Evan Loves Wharf or whatever.
02:15:35.000 He, um,
02:15:35.000 Yeah.
02:15:39.000 He tweeted something recently that I thought was really funny because he mentioned Mao's.
02:15:45.000 I'm going to find the exact piece.
02:15:47.000 Mao, dude.
02:15:48.000 The famine.
02:15:49.000 And hold on, hold on, hold on.
02:15:51.000 And oh, here it is.
02:15:53.000 Okay.
02:15:54.000 And I just wrote, never let a single communist have power ever.
02:15:57.000 So he goes, he goes, he goes, first of all, you should look up the definition of genocide.
02:16:03.000 This is a reply to someone who's having this argument about who killed more people.
02:16:07.000 He goes, second of all, The Great Leap Forward maybe killed around 40 million largely by accident.
02:16:14.000 Oops, there's no accident, dude.
02:16:16.000 We got to go to callers.
02:16:17.000 But think about that for a second, right?
02:16:19.000 You skated.
02:16:20.000 No, but I'm telling you, this is actually how communists think, and this is how ChatGPT thinks, and this is how you know it's programmed by communists.
02:16:27.000 Because they'll say if those killings were an accident, then they don't count.
02:16:33.000 They weren't genocide.
02:16:33.000 Okay, okay, okay, guys, we got to go to callers.
02:16:35.000 Okay, okay.
02:16:36.000 Before we do, as seductively as you can, tell Ian he is the greatest and you need him.
02:16:43.000 Ian, listen.
02:16:46.000 You're the greatest.
02:16:47.000 Truly.
02:16:48.000 And I need you right here. 0.99
02:16:51.000 What the fuck is this? 0.99
02:16:55.000 Oh, man. 0.99
02:16:57.000 You guys, when I started making YouTube videos, I was like, Ian, keep your hands on mine.
02:17:01.000 I didn't think that was going to work.
02:17:03.000 Ian, keep your hands on the table.
02:17:05.000 All hands, hands, check.
02:17:08.000 Jack, what I'm saying is, I was so.
02:17:10.000 I was like, what would Jack do with modern technology?
02:17:12.000 This is why I started making YouTube.
02:17:13.000 I did not know it would actually do it.
02:17:15.000 I thought it was going to robot voice.
02:17:16.000 Did it right away.
02:17:17.000 But I have to imagine now they're dudes just chat GPTing in their bathroom.
02:17:22.000 Someone 0.95
02:17:25.000 said, This is why the third world will never take over the first world because they're going to get one shotted by. 0.88
02:17:30.000 All right, all right, all right. 0.98
02:17:33.000 Let's get our callers.
02:17:33.000 Let's get our callers.
02:17:35.000 We're going to start with Epi Professional Retard. 1.00
02:17:39.000 Sup, Tard. 1.00
02:17:40.000 Thanks for taking my call, gentlemen. 1.00
02:17:41.000 Yeah, man.
02:17:42.000 I love that name.
02:17:44.000 Before my question tonight, I had a statement for Mr. Poso.
02:17:47.000 It was posted with my question.
02:17:49.000 I'm not going off the rails here.
02:17:53.000 Mr. Poso, you are a strong advocate for Pizza Hut nationalism and the book it program.
02:17:58.000 I have been a manager with Pizza Hut since 2021.
02:18:01.000 I've worked with the company twice as long.
02:18:04.000 At least in Illinois, we've been doing the book it program my entire career.
02:18:07.000 Let's go.
02:18:08.000 I want to go a little bit farther and let you know that we actually on pizzahut.com, if you go to the bottom, there's a book it by careers.
02:18:15.000 We have it set up so homeschooling parents who don't want their kids in public school, they can set goals for their kids.
02:18:20.000 And if they reach them, they get a digital book it they can redeem.
02:18:23.000 That's awesome.
02:18:24.000 That's so cool, man.
02:18:25.000 I'm glad to hear that the program lives on.
02:18:28.000 Book it.
02:18:28.000 Yeah.
02:18:29.000 I know you advocate for it a lot.
02:18:30.000 I thought you advocate for homeschooling.
02:18:32.000 You'd love to know and tell those parents that they can do that.
02:18:37.000 Oh, that's phenomenal.
02:18:38.000 I actually didn't know that.
02:18:39.000 So we're breaking news here that Book It is available for homeschooling parents.
02:18:44.000 That's super cool.
02:18:44.000 Very good.
02:18:47.000 For Tim, I'm a little bit late.
02:18:49.000 Work makes it hard to call in.
02:18:51.000 I'm mostly on night.
02:18:53.000 But you've been talking a lot on the morning show about Canada's MADE program.
02:18:57.000 And how, in one example you bring up, a gentleman was in a car accident and doctors repeatedly pressured him to take the assisted death inmate.
02:19:08.000 Now, I'm curious if you think or if you've heard that Canada might have an incentive to over or under report, such as had that man taken the maid death, would they have an incentive to report that as an auto fatality and say, we don't kill that many people?
02:19:22.000 It's just compassion.
02:19:23.000 Or to over report and say, look, there's no car accidents anymore.
02:19:27.000 We just kill everybody that does that, you know, compassionately.
02:19:34.000 Let me sort through that. 0.99
02:19:37.000 It's an interesting question.
02:19:38.000 I don't think there's evidence to really conclude that because a traffic death and a medically assisted death are recorded in totally different ways.
02:19:48.000 So they couldn't.
02:19:49.000 There you go.
02:19:50.000 Thanks for calling it.
02:19:51.000 No, I'm kidding.
02:19:53.000 I don't know about over-undering reporting because you're basically asking what's the current agenda of the government.
02:19:58.000 So what numbers are in a fluff to the benefit of what?
02:20:00.000 What I will add to this, however, is that they likely would.
02:20:05.000 I would argue they would over report made because now they're trying to harvest organs through made.
02:20:10.000 And so if someone dies and they can claim it was intent, like they asked for it, like if Ian's walking down the street and someone bashes him over the head, they can't take his organs without consent from next of kin.
02:20:22.000 However, if Ian gets bashed over the head, then they lie and claim it was made, they can say, oh, well, but he said we could take his organs.
02:20:30.000 He wanted to die.
02:20:31.000 So I think they have an incentive to report things as made when they may not be.
02:20:39.000 Absolutely.
02:20:41.000 I do think for any of the young men in your audience, if they want to be the next Nick Shirley, that's something they could possibly try and go undercover and find and report on.
02:20:49.000 If he breaks that, I imagine it's going to go big.
02:20:49.000 There you go.
02:20:52.000 I think you mean the next James O'Keefe.
02:20:55.000 Oh, of course.
02:20:56.000 My apologies, Tim.
02:20:59.000 Millennial bias versus Gen Z bias.
02:21:01.000 Oh, Nick Shirley.
02:21:02.000 Oh, but Nick does different things from James.
02:21:03.000 James is the one who does that.
02:21:04.000 He doesn't really go undercover.
02:21:05.000 Right, right.
02:21:07.000 James is the one who's going to go undercover and ask the questions and secretly film it.
02:21:10.000 Nick's the on the ground reporting guy for big events.
02:21:14.000 Nick used to go, though, like, if you go back and watch his original YouTube stuff, and I actually, funny enough, New York Times asked me when Bannon got sent to prison, actually, the day Unhumans came out, I did this interview with the New York Times,
02:21:29.000 and they said, you know, when Bannon said, next man up, next man up, like, who do you, you know, he's like, did he mean you?
02:21:35.000 Did he mean Charlie?
02:21:36.000 It's like, no, I think it just means everybody.
02:21:38.000 I think it means everyone from us down to the Zoomers. 0.51
02:21:40.000 And they said, and in 2024, I told the New York Times, They said, Well, who are some of the big streamers you're looking at? 0.80
02:21:46.000 And I said, Nick Shirley is going to be the next big thing.
02:21:49.000 And that was two years ago.
02:21:51.000 Yeah.
02:21:52.000 You want to add anything to that?
02:21:53.000 Shout anything out?
02:21:55.000 Firstly, I'd like to shout out Phil Labonte.
02:21:57.000 You're my favorite co host on Timcast, alongside Seamus Coughlin and, of course, Poso.
02:22:02.000 If you have any interest in furthering your education, I would recommend that you talk to Ian about learning to control the weather.
02:22:09.000 No.
02:22:10.000 He set you up for a cold break.
02:22:12.000 Thanks for calling.
02:22:13.000 Oh, God.
02:22:14.000 But he's right.
02:22:15.000 One last thing, I'd like to shout out my four month old daughter to the gentleman in the audience.
02:22:20.000 Of all the things I've experienced and achieved in my life, nothing brings me greater fulfillment or joy than watching her smile and hearing her laugh while I'm playing with her.
02:22:30.000 That is something none of these gentlemen who talk about their kids can adequately express.
02:22:35.000 There's not words for it.
02:22:36.000 Bro, it gets better.
02:22:37.000 It gets so much better.
02:22:39.000 I got to stir for you guys.
02:22:40.000 But was there anything else you wanted to add before we wrap it up?
02:22:43.000 Any shout outs?
02:22:43.000 No, sir.
02:22:44.000 All right.
02:22:44.000 Thank you.
02:22:44.000 Thanks for calling in.
02:22:45.000 Cheers, bud.
02:22:46.000 So I woke up this morning.
02:22:49.000 And I heard, baita, baita, baita, baita.
02:22:55.000 Just, and like I'm slowly coming to, and I'm like, I grab my phone, and I'm looking at my phone for a few minutes, and I just keep hearing baita over and over again.
02:23:05.000 And I get in the shower, you know, I get out of the shower, I put my contacts in, go to change my clothes.
02:23:10.000 It's not been another five or 10 minutes.
02:23:11.000 I hear baita over and over again.
02:23:12.000 I walk in, and there's my daughter just going baita, baita over and over again, which means banana.
02:23:20.000 And it was because, or blueberry. 0.99
02:23:22.000 And it was because my wife was like, you have to eat your protein. 1.00
02:23:25.000 You can't just have bananas. 0.99
02:23:28.000 And they had a standoff for several hours.
02:23:29.000 And I was like, it has been like 40 minutes.
02:23:31.000 She's like, oh, it's been hours.
02:23:33.000 And then when I came in midday after I record the morning show, my wife comes to me very proud.
02:23:39.000 And she's like, I won the standoff.
02:23:41.000 She finally ate her chicken.
02:23:44.000 And I was like, all right.
02:23:44.000 That's easier now.
02:23:45.000 I'm so excited to hear that.
02:23:46.000 And then she was like, she finally just gave up.
02:23:49.000 And I was, she was like, I was putting her down for a nap.
02:23:52.000 And then she did the hand sign for want food. 1.00
02:23:56.000 And my wife was like, Are you going to eat your chicken? 0.76
02:23:57.000 And she goes, Yes.
02:23:58.000 And she's like, Okay.
02:23:59.000 And she picked her up and brought her in, handed her the chicken.
02:24:01.000 She put it in her mouth and just sat there with her mouth hanging open.
02:24:05.000 And then after like 30 seconds, ate it and finished all of her chicken. 0.99
02:24:08.000 Awesome.
02:24:09.000 Glad to hear that, too, because that's what they do, right?
02:24:12.000 It's not about, you know, do I like chicken or not?
02:24:17.000 It's, Am I going to listen?
02:24:18.000 Yeah.
02:24:19.000 Am I going to, am I going to listen to my mom and dad?
02:24:21.000 You know, are you playing those games?
02:24:24.000 And they're testing you, they're constantly testing.
02:24:26.000 Well, they don't know.
02:24:27.000 All they know is I want something and I'm going to ask until I get it.
02:24:31.000 And they need to be taught there are limits and you get what you are provided for and there's reasons for it.
02:24:35.000 And I'm telling you that the minute you start giving in on stuff like that, they learn they can do whatever they want.
02:24:41.000 This is how we get in Ian.
02:24:43.000 All right, all right, all right.
02:24:45.000 I got one more for you.
02:24:45.000 You ready, Ian?
02:24:46.000 You ready, Ian?
02:24:46.000 It's as hard as you get.
02:24:48.000 Unified field.
02:24:48.000 You ready for this one?
02:24:49.000 You ready for this one?
02:24:50.000 Yeah, it's a unified field.
02:24:51.000 Yeah, they were undisturbable.
02:24:51.000 All right, hold on.
02:24:55.000 As seductively as you can, explain to Ian.
02:24:59.000 The move you will make as your paladin character in DD to defeat the evil lich before you.
02:25:07.000 Ian, watch this.
02:25:09.000 I step in slow, shield raised, eyes locked.
02:25:15.000 Soft breath, then bam, divine smite blazing.
02:25:21.000 I drive radiant steel through its phylacteries' tether. 0.98
02:25:29.000 Give me this deal, girl. 0.98
02:25:30.000 Ian, she wants your radiant steel.
02:25:32.000 The second.
02:25:35.000 All it took was two to get Ian to be playing along.
02:25:38.000 Right for the phylactery, dude.
02:25:40.000 All right, we got Hades.
02:25:42.000 What?
02:25:43.000 Hades.
02:25:44.000 He puts his soul in a little jar.
02:25:46.000 That's called his phylactery. 1.00
02:25:46.000 If you blow it up, you kill him. 1.00
02:25:48.000 You can't kill the lich unless you find his phylactery. 1.00
02:25:50.000 It's funny that he knows that.
02:25:52.000 Hey, man, I learned something tonight.
02:25:55.000 By the way, I just want to point out again that this is the worst AI will ever be.
02:25:59.000 Yep.
02:26:00.000 Bro.
02:26:02.000 And they said in the next.
02:26:04.000 Six months, it's going to be more than we saw in 10 years, I think is the plan, the escalation.
02:26:08.000 Yeah, I mean, probably in the next 18 months, but the reason is because the frontier models aren't the ones that we're messing around with.
02:26:15.000 But in like, the thing is, like, now the AI models that are doing really, really crazy stuff that you hear, like, they're, like, that you hear about, like, from Anthropoc and stuff.
02:26:26.000 Solving math equations.
02:26:27.000 Yeah, like, those are the frontier models, and those aren't super useful to the average everyday person.
02:26:35.000 I just saw a company that's releasing an AI.
02:26:38.000 Agent that can do stuff on your computer.
02:26:40.000 It's similar to Tank, but it's not as involved.
02:26:43.000 Like, you don't have to get into the terminal to install it.
02:26:44.000 You don't have to worry about coding or anything.
02:26:49.000 And that's what's going to be the AI killer app.
02:26:52.000 When your mom can pick up her phone and say, order me tickets for this, find out the date.
02:26:58.000 You can do that.
02:26:59.000 It's been around for 10 years.
02:27:00.000 When everyone can do it, and it's simple.
02:27:02.000 It's been around for 10 years.
02:27:03.000 But it's not something that people.
02:27:04.000 It is.
02:27:04.000 It's called the Amazon device.
02:27:06.000 I used to do it all the time.
02:27:08.000 When it's on everyone's phone, like Siri, when Siri does what Siri does.
02:27:12.000 Bro, bro, bro, bro.
02:27:14.000 Amazon has it right now.
02:27:15.000 I can do exactly as you're describing.
02:27:17.000 I've been able to do that for 10 years.
02:27:18.000 For ordering products on Amazon, right?
02:27:21.000 No, anything.
02:27:22.000 You've been able to do it for 10 years.
02:27:24.000 Yeah, you'd say, yeah, I don't want to say it, but device, search, find me tickets for the upcoming show.
02:27:33.000 I'm in Silver Spring, Maryland.
02:27:34.000 And it would go one second.
02:27:36.000 And then it would come back and be like, Ticketmaster has available.
02:27:38.000 And you're like, I would like to buy those.
02:27:39.000 It goes like, ordering for you now.
02:27:40.000 When they're going to be putting agents on phones like Siri, that's when it's going to be something that everybody does.
02:27:48.000 It hasn't seen mass adoption.
02:27:50.000 And the point that I'm making is you're going to see mass adoption when these agents are able to run your computer or what have you just from a voice command.
02:27:58.000 Hades, what up?
02:28:00.000 That's going to be cool when you can just tell your phone instead of clicking apps.
02:28:04.000 Yeah, man.
02:28:05.000 Apps are going to go away.
02:28:05.000 Hey, man.
02:28:06.000 This is Hades, your proletarian party leader.
02:28:10.000 How's everyone doing tonight?
02:28:11.000 What's up, man? 1.00
02:28:12.000 What up, proletariat? 1.00
02:28:13.000 Doing well? 1.00
02:28:15.000 Tell me about the future.
02:28:18.000 That is yet to be seen, my friend.
02:28:21.000 That is yet to be seen.
02:28:23.000 Loved meeting you guys.
02:28:25.000 Thanks for coming out on the fast brew coffee event.
02:28:30.000 Oh, that was gorgeous.
02:28:31.000 It was amazing.
02:28:34.000 Right?
02:28:35.000 Oh, yeah.
02:28:35.000 Absolutely astounding.
02:28:36.000 Let me know the next time I have one of those.
02:28:37.000 Yeah, we want to do them like once a month.
02:28:39.000 Jack, you better come out, man.
02:28:41.000 Let's play some music.
02:28:43.000 Well, we weren't able to get the equipment, but we should actually do some bass guitar.
02:28:47.000 Yeah.
02:28:47.000 Yeah.
02:28:48.000 Yeah, me and Carter jam.
02:28:49.000 We can do it at the big table.
02:28:49.000 You know what we can do?
02:28:51.000 Play some guitar.
02:28:51.000 And then have people standing on the other side and not use the stage.
02:28:54.000 Anyway, anyway, I want to.
02:28:55.000 Sir, your question.
02:28:56.000 Oh, yeah.
02:28:58.000 So, especially since Jack's there tonight, I figured this would be a perfect night for this question.
02:29:03.000 With a number of companies recently using ads to express their intent to restore classic American culture, what would you recommend they do?
02:29:11.000 And what companies would you like to see collaborating on the restoration of American culture?
02:29:16.000 I mean, I want all of them to do so.
02:29:18.000 I mean, I was going back when.
02:29:22.000 Just before we hit the 250th on July 4th, and I was looking at some ads from the Bicentennial from 1976.
02:29:32.000 And it was just, it was like every company was just going full bore Americana all over the place.
02:29:40.000 Coke, of course, is the one everybody remembers, but it wasn't just them, it was everyone.
02:29:44.000 And it was amazing to see people were going retro, they were going vintage, and it wasn't ironic.
02:29:50.000 It didn't have that sort of like twinge of irony that seems like so many things do in the big two six.
02:29:56.000 It was just full throated, actual embrace and love of country.
02:30:01.000 And legitimately, I think, authentic.
02:30:05.000 And keep in mind, the 70s were pretty tumultuous.
02:30:08.000 Nixon had just resigned.
02:30:10.000 Watergate had just happened, which is a whole other can of worms.
02:30:14.000 But Vietnam was just kind of winding down.
02:30:17.000 And so people were expressing dissatisfaction.
02:30:24.000 You had the oil wars were heating up in the Middle East, something we can certainly. 1.00
02:30:30.000 Agree with right now.
02:30:31.000 And yet, people just said, you know what?
02:30:34.000 We're just going to love on America for a whole year.
02:30:37.000 So I wish that all of them would do it.
02:30:40.000 And foreign companies should be forced to do it.
02:30:43.000 Gazprom, especially.
02:30:45.000 Yes, precisely.
02:30:50.000 How about the rest of you guys?
02:30:53.000 What was the specific question exactly?
02:30:56.000 What countries or what companies would I like to see support the U.S. for the.
02:31:00.000 What would you like?
02:31:02.000 Which companies would you like to see, like taking the lead?
02:31:05.000 I meant more specifically.
02:31:07.000 Alphabet.
02:31:07.000 Sorry about that.
02:31:08.000 And then what would you like to see them do?
02:31:11.000 Alf, I want to restore American culture.
02:31:14.000 I love X.
02:31:15.000 I love everything that Elon is doing, except for his personal stuff.
02:31:18.000 That creeps me out.
02:31:19.000 But everything else is awesome.
02:31:21.000 I mean, I even like Neuralink.
02:31:22.000 Guys, he's not talking about brainwashing liberals.
02:31:25.000 He's talking about restoring vision to the blind.
02:31:27.000 And I'm a big fan of all of that stuff.
02:31:29.000 Technology is neutral, it's what you do with it.
02:31:31.000 I do think society is going to do really awful things with technology.
02:31:33.000 But Elon's saying, I want to cure paralysis, I want to cure the blind, I want to cure the deaf. 0.97
02:31:38.000 X and XPay, fucking love it. 0.98
02:31:41.000 Tesla, big fan. 0.99
02:31:43.000 There's a reason why he's the wealthiest guy on the planet because he's making shit that actually helps people and works. 0.95
02:31:47.000 So I don't know. 0.98
02:31:48.000 Big fan.
02:31:49.000 The reason I said Alphabet is because a social media network of some sort should step up and preserve free speech on the internet if possible.
02:31:56.000 Someone's got to do it.
02:31:57.000 So one of these big companies, I'd be happy to see X do it.
02:32:00.000 But Alphabet's so predominant.
02:32:02.000 Like, X is, you know?
02:32:04.000 That was the whole justification for him buying X.
02:32:08.000 That's not really why he bought it, though.
02:32:10.000 Well, that's why I said the justification.
02:32:12.000 And he did make it so that way it's a much freer platform than it was pre-Organ.
02:32:12.000 Right.
02:32:16.000 But it's because he wanted the data from everybody and you can't isolate a portion of the population.
02:32:21.000 So, you know, people were like getting on me for, you know, attacking capitalism last week, which is hilarious.
02:32:30.000 And I'm probably going to do it again.
02:32:33.000 And Democracy, too, by the way.
02:32:34.000 Yes.
02:32:37.000 And it's like, well, no, I was going after Kevin O'Leary for worshiping, you know, this bauble.
02:32:43.000 And in the same way that that's exactly how you should describe it, yeah.
02:32:47.000 In the same way that Elon Musk has gobs more money than uh than Kevin O'Leary, but he's also created a lot more value in the world than Kevin O'Leary, who got rich.
02:32:58.000 You know how he got his money, by the way.
02:33:00.000 You remember Carmen Sandiego, the game, yeah, yeah, and like Oregon Trail and all those games, yeah, yeah.
02:33:05.000 Kevin O'Leary bundled all those games together and then purchased them with like a bunch of Wall Street guys and then sold it all to Mattel for like four billion dollars.
02:33:14.000 Mattel almost went bankrupt.
02:33:16.000 Because he just straight up lied to them about how much everything was worth.
02:33:19.000 And Mattel fired him from the company like six months later. 0.99
02:33:24.000 And like he's literally just like a rug puller. 1.00
02:33:27.000 And now he's going to run around telling everybody about Shark Tank and how great his Rolexes are. 0.99
02:33:32.000 Whereas like Elon, he goes and does great things.
02:33:34.000 He's trying to put us on Mars.
02:33:38.000 He bought X, he's done incredible things.
02:33:40.000 And you can see tangibly how he made his money, right?
02:33:44.000 He sells cars.
02:33:46.000 He runs companies that we can all see, we can all use.
02:33:49.000 So I have a problem with that.
02:33:50.000 It actually annoys me how successful his companies are.
02:33:53.000 I know, right?
02:33:53.000 Because I've had a bunch that failed.
02:33:55.000 It's funny, I was watching this thing where this liberal was calling Trump a failure.
02:34:00.000 And it's just like Trump had 500 companies, five of them went into bankruptcy.
02:34:04.000 And bankruptcy is protection, not submission.
02:34:07.000 Bankruptcy is how you avoid paying your debtors while you keep operating your business.
02:34:10.000 It doesn't mean you failed. 1.00
02:34:11.000 These people are just fucking retarded. 1.00
02:34:13.000 Didn't Don Jr. say that one time? 1.00
02:34:14.000 He was talking about, he was like, look, Our family's been successful, but you can see how we had our success.
02:34:21.000 You can go to our hotels.
02:34:22.000 You can play at our golf courses.
02:34:25.000 You can visit our resorts.
02:34:26.000 He goes, But then look at the Clintons.
02:34:28.000 Where did they get their money from?
02:34:29.000 Let me tell you a story.
02:34:30.000 Let me tell you a story.
02:34:32.000 So we were in Vegas for the World Series.
02:34:33.000 In the middle of the night, we get scorpions in our Airbnb.
02:34:35.000 No joke.
02:34:36.000 On the ceiling.
02:34:37.000 And so naturally.
02:34:38.000 You mean like the band scorpion?
02:34:40.000 Yeah, literal scorpions running around.
02:34:41.000 Oh.
02:34:42.000 And big ones.
02:34:43.000 That's running and jumping.
02:34:44.000 And so security's like, hey, we got some scorpions.
02:34:46.000 We find one on the ceiling.
02:34:48.000 And I was like, okay, I got to wake up my wife because she's not going to tolerate this.
02:34:51.000 I wake her up and I was like, because she had already seen one.
02:34:54.000 And then I was like, Alison, there's a scorpion.
02:34:55.000 And she's like, where?
02:34:56.000 And I was like, on the ceiling.
02:34:57.000 And she went, what?
02:34:57.000 And she jumps up and she grabs the baby and she's like, we are not staying here.
02:35:01.000 And I said, it's now about 12 15.
02:35:05.000 The day of poker had ended at around 11.
02:35:07.000 And I was thinking about renting a room at Paris.
02:35:10.000 And it was available.
02:35:11.000 And then I was like, well, you know, wife's sleeping.
02:35:13.000 Like, I guess we'll just go back.
02:35:15.000 And I was like, I kind of feel like I should just get it in case, but I didn't.
02:35:18.000 Scorpion happens.
02:35:19.000 It's 12 15.
02:35:20.000 So I go, I'm just going to rent the room.
02:35:21.000 I go back on the app, and now I can't rent it because now it's officially the next day.
02:35:26.000 And you can't rent a room. 1.00
02:35:29.000 It's fucking retarded how these booking sites work. 1.00
02:35:33.000 If it is 11 50 on Wednesday, you can book Wednesday. 1.00
02:35:38.000 Once it strikes midnight, you can only book for check in on Thursday.
02:35:42.000 But if I booked at 11 50, they'll hand me the key right there on the spot.
02:35:46.000 10 minutes goes by, now you gotta wait till 4 p.m.
02:35:49.000 So I say, let's just go there and I'll book in person. 1.00
02:35:51.000 And told me to go fuck myself. 1.00
02:35:53.000 They said, they lied. 1.00
02:35:55.000 They were like, they said, oh, I'm sorry, we're sold out. 0.99
02:35:58.000 And I was like, damn, really? 0.96
02:36:00.000 And then I was thinking, like, look, the tournament ended for the day, 30,000 people, they must have all booked the rooms. 0.99
02:36:06.000 So I go on kayak and I'm like, I'll find a room somewhere else.
02:36:09.000 And sure enough, Paris pops up.
02:36:11.000 And I go, huh?
02:36:12.000 So I click it.
02:36:13.000 And I'm like, the same rooms that were available a half an hour ago are still available.
02:36:16.000 There were 18 rooms, including the suite.
02:36:19.000 So I go over and I was like, hey, the rooms are still here.
02:36:20.000 And she goes, no, we're sold out.
02:36:21.000 And I was like, I'm holding my phone.
02:36:24.000 I'm showing you the room.
02:36:25.000 I can book it right now.
02:36:26.000 She's like, we don't have any rooms.
02:36:27.000 I said, okay, if I book this on the app right now, can I check in?
02:36:30.000 And she goes, if it lets you book in, if it lets you check in, I'm sorry, if it lets you book it.
02:36:35.000 And then I go, okay, I'm booked.
02:36:35.000 So I book it.
02:36:38.000 I'd like to check in.
02:36:39.000 And she goes, you can't till 4 p.m.
02:36:41.000 And I was like, the room is available now.
02:36:43.000 It was available half an hour ago.
02:36:46.000 I'm like, what's going on?
02:36:47.000 And she's like, You can't.
02:36:48.000 I said, okay, can I talk to the manager?
02:36:50.000 She gets the manager out and he says the same thing.
02:36:51.000 And I said, listen, do I need to call somebody?
02:36:56.000 Because I can call somebody if, like, if one of the higher ups, if, if, if, can I call my casino host?
02:37:01.000 And he's going to say, give him the room.
02:37:02.000 They go, yeah, absolutely.
02:37:03.000 If you can get a casino, I was like, okay. 1.00
02:37:05.000 It's 12 30 in the morning, but let me see if I can get a casino host to tell you to go fuck yourselves. 0.99
02:37:09.000 I didn't say it like that, but that's basically the idea. 0.99
02:37:10.000 For those who don't know, casino hosts are, if you're a VIP, you get whatever you want.
02:37:15.000 And so I make some phone calls, but everyone's sleeping and I call a friend and he's like, listen, like, I can get one of these guys.
02:37:15.000 Right.
02:37:22.000 They're probably sleeping right now.
02:37:24.000 And so I said to the guy, I said, What's going to happen is I'm going to sit here for an hour, waking up my host, who's going to call you and ask you why you were jamming me up.
02:37:33.000 And he says, Okay, well, then he's going to have to do that.
02:37:35.000 And I said, Fine.
02:37:36.000 So I get on my phone, I call my host, and it's ringing.
02:37:38.000 As soon as I call, the manager grabs the phone, dials a number, literally the same time I picked my phone up.
02:37:45.000 And I hear him say, Yes, the guest is trying to get his host to clear the room for him.
02:37:49.000 Oh, he can't?
02:37:51.000 We won't let him check in?
02:37:52.000 Okay, thank you.
02:37:53.000 Bye.
02:37:54.000 And so then I hang up and I say, Now, was that necessary?
02:37:57.000 And he's like, yeah, I'm sorry.
02:37:58.000 I talked to the higher ups.
02:37:59.000 They're not going to let you check in no matter what.
02:38:01.000 And I said, okay, so you know where I went?
02:38:04.000 You want to know where I went?
02:38:05.000 Can you guess where I went in Vegas?
02:38:07.000 I went to Trump Hotel.
02:38:07.000 Trump Hotel.
02:38:09.000 And I walked in at one in the morning and I said, I need a room.
02:38:12.000 And they go, what kind of room would you like?
02:38:13.000 And I said, I have my family with me, so I need at least a one bedroom suite.
02:38:15.000 Like, absolutely no problem, sir.
02:38:18.000 Your room is now available.
02:38:19.000 And I said, this is why Trump makes money.
02:38:22.000 This is why. 1.00
02:38:23.000 Because I go to a Caesars and they tell me to fuck myself and they fuck with me. 1.00
02:38:27.000 And I walk into Trump and they say, Sir, anything you need. 1.00
02:38:30.000 I don't have a host with Trump.
02:38:31.000 I didn't call anybody.
02:38:32.000 I walked in.
02:38:33.000 I was a regular person off the streets.
02:38:34.000 I didn't need a room.
02:38:35.000 And they took care of me.
02:38:36.000 They don't have a casino.
02:38:37.000 Exactly.
02:38:39.000 They are hospitality, first and foremost.
02:38:40.000 They will take care of you. 1.00
02:38:42.000 Paris is like, go fuck yourself, go gamble for four hours, come back at 4 p.m. with your baby, have your baby sit in a smoke filled casino. 1.00
02:38:48.000 They don't give a shit about you. 1.00
02:38:49.000 These strip casinos are fucking shit. 1.00
02:38:52.000 Anyway, you want to add anything? 1.00
02:38:54.000 Or shout out to the M.
02:38:56.000 My point was, I had a good time over there.
02:38:58.000 I'm going to stay there again.
02:38:59.000 Trump makes money because when you go to their hotels, they rolled the red carpet for you, no matter who you are, no matter.
02:39:05.000 I didn't have to call in.
02:39:06.000 And I didn't have to ask for a favor.
02:39:08.000 I literally just walked in and they did what a hotel should do.
02:39:10.000 I'm not saying they're special.
02:39:12.000 I'm saying that when you walk in, the hotel is like, we're here for you. 1.00
02:39:14.000 When you go to these, these, these, these concealed fucking hotels, they say, go fuck yourself. 1.00
02:39:18.000 And they're so, they're actually really big on that. 1.00
02:39:20.000 And that's something where, so people know that they franchise as well.
02:39:25.000 So, you know, they have a lot of the, a lot of like the international Trump hotels, for example, it's, they're not operating it directly, but they're just sort of like licensing the Trump name to be used.
02:39:35.000 Right.
02:39:35.000 And, um, But one of the things they'll do is that they'll have the team fly out.
02:39:40.000 And sometimes it's the kids.
02:39:41.000 Sometimes it's actually like Don, Eric, et cetera, Ivanka will go out and they're meeting with the management so they understand those things.
02:39:49.000 I'm going to tell you the Trump Vegas is the place to be.
02:39:54.000 Don't stay at the strip casinos.
02:39:56.000 I've stayed there.
02:39:56.000 It's phenomenal.
02:39:57.000 It's phenomenal because it has to be because they're not a casino.
02:40:00.000 The value proposition in Vegas for the Trump Hotel is that it's not the cheapest.
02:40:05.000 If you stay at one of the strip casinos, they make their money off of the casino.
02:40:11.000 And they're going to charge you hotel prices for a room.
02:40:14.000 You're going to spend several hundred bucks per night, and the rooms are okay.
02:40:19.000 At Trump, you're going to spend the same, and the rooms are phenomenal.
02:40:22.000 And the restaurants are phenomenal because they don't make the money off the casinos.
02:40:25.000 So you state the Trump, then you go to the casinos you want to play at.
02:40:28.000 That's how they make money.
02:40:30.000 Now, don't get me wrong.
02:40:31.000 If you really want to save money, you want to go to Vegas on the cheap, go to the Strat.
02:40:36.000 Strat's fantastic.
02:40:38.000 We hung out there because the rooms are 20 bucks.
02:40:41.000 Wow.
02:40:42.000 That's OG Vegas.
02:40:43.000 Now, you're not getting the greatest room.
02:40:45.000 They're nice.
02:40:46.000 You know, it's a hotel room.
02:40:47.000 Yeah, yeah.
02:40:48.000 But $20, everything's there.
02:40:50.000 The food's fantastic.
02:40:51.000 It does seem like they've made Vegas, you know, and I've only been there a few times, but it does seem like they're trying to push it towards more of a family friendly kind of atmosphere as opposed to sort of like the reputation it's had before.
02:41:06.000 They have like some arcades now and stuff like that.
02:41:08.000 What I will also say too is I basically, anywhere I go, I try to stay to Trump.
02:41:13.000 It's not because I like Trump.
02:41:14.000 This is not because, you know, it's because Trump hotels literally are the best.
02:41:18.000 And you know what you're going to get.
02:41:19.000 No, I know what I'm going to get.
02:41:21.000 And I know I'm going to get a bottle of Trump champagne or Trump wine.
02:41:25.000 But have you had it?
02:41:27.000 Yeah, yeah, of course.
02:41:27.000 It's fantastic.
02:41:28.000 Is that going to be at the room?
02:41:29.000 Yeah, well, you're going to pay for it, but it'll be in the room in the fridge.
02:41:32.000 Yeah.
02:41:33.000 But my point is, I've stayed at the W, I've stayed at, you know, Hilton.
02:41:38.000 We've stayed at a bunch of, you know, nice places.
02:41:41.000 I've stayed at the Ritz.
02:41:43.000 Trump's the best.
02:41:44.000 I mean, it's not always better than everybody else, but you know what you're going to get.
02:41:48.000 Everything is taken care of.
02:41:50.000 The hospitality is fantastic.
02:41:51.000 And there's a reason Trump is a billionaire off of his hotel properties because they are good.
02:41:57.000 And don't get me wrong, their hotels are good too.
02:41:59.000 I really do like the Ritz in Chicago, but basically, my wife and I are like, sometimes we go somewhere and we're like, we go to Trump and we're always like, yeah, it was good.
02:42:09.000 There are some places we've been to that are way better than Trump.
02:42:11.000 Don't get me wrong.
02:42:13.000 If we're going to go somewhere new, we know what we're getting with the Trump Hotel, and it's always good.
02:42:17.000 Anyway, we should go back to the callers instead of me just.
02:42:18.000 Yeah, well, I mean, that's the value of franchise and Cass Brew.
02:42:21.000 That's why Cass Brew is so good.
02:42:23.000 You know, uniformity.
02:42:24.000 You want to add anything or shout anything out, brother?
02:42:27.000 I mean, this is your show.
02:42:28.000 You guys are supposed to be talking.
02:42:30.000 You're good.
02:42:31.000 But again, thanks for all showing up at the CASBrew.
02:42:36.000 That was fantastic.
02:42:38.000 Loved meeting you guys, so getting to sit and talk with you.
02:42:38.000 Loved it.
02:42:41.000 Speaking of talking with you, I'm wondering, especially Jack, I know I've already messaged with Phil and he, and we've had a little bit of a conversation.
02:42:50.000 Jack, Tim, can I talk with you guys directly related to my question here tonight?
02:42:57.000 Because I've got an idea that I think both of you guys might be interested in getting in on.
02:43:04.000 What is it?
02:43:07.000 You mean offline or right now?
02:43:10.000 Offline.
02:43:10.000 I don't want to extend the call anymore.
02:43:12.000 I know it's like 20 of 11.
02:43:14.000 You guys want to get going anyway.
02:43:15.000 Yeah, just like that.
02:43:17.000 Ian, you're better off telling them right now because those guys are worth about $1,000 an hour each.
02:43:23.000 So get in the way.
02:43:23.000 No, Tim was $3,000, I heard earlier.
02:43:25.000 I see Tim at work, and that's.
02:43:26.000 Oh, bro.
02:43:27.000 My hourly rate for any contract work is like $10,000.
02:43:32.000 Like, legit.
02:43:34.000 It's crazy how expensive their time is. 0.97
02:43:36.000 But go shoot it, dude. 1.00
02:43:37.000 Shoot your shot. 1.00
02:43:37.000 I always make exceptions for people, though, but. 1.00
02:43:39.000 If, like, a company hits me up and I'm like, it's $10,000 an hour.
02:43:42.000 Like, they, yeah.
02:43:45.000 It's just a collaboration idea.
02:43:47.000 I want to try and organize something, shall we say.
02:43:52.000 Well, yeah, let's connect through, like, filling in.
02:43:57.000 All right. 1.00
02:43:57.000 The fuck? 1.00
02:43:58.000 Works for me. 1.00
02:43:58.000 Thank you. 1.00
02:44:00.000 Phil, if you ever want to change your career, I'd be happy to teach you how to drive a truck good, sir.
02:44:06.000 Ah.
02:44:07.000 I appreciate the offer.
02:44:08.000 Thank you very much.
02:44:09.000 Help you get your class A.
02:44:11.000 Awesome.
02:44:11.000 Thank you very much.
02:44:12.000 But otherwise.
02:44:14.000 Thanks again, gentlemen.
02:44:16.000 Love talking with you.
02:44:17.000 Y'all have yourselves a great night.
02:44:18.000 God bless.
02:44:19.000 Love you.
02:44:20.000 You too, man.
02:44:20.000 Thank you for calling.
02:44:21.000 Echo that, Phil.
02:44:22.000 You'd be a badass heavy machine operator.
02:44:25.000 All right.
02:44:25.000 Next up, we got Sir Jackhoff.
02:44:28.000 What's up?
02:44:29.000 Hi.
02:44:29.000 What is up, guys?
02:44:33.000 Tim, when you had that AI thing talking, I've seen the show plenty of times.
02:44:36.000 It felt like you were just talking to any of the liberals you've had on.
02:44:42.000 Also, what is it, Jack?
02:44:43.000 I've never met another Jack that I don't like.
02:44:45.000 So, from one Jack to another, I appreciate you, dog.
02:44:48.000 I love everything you do online.
02:44:49.000 Good to meet you.
02:44:51.000 To my question, given last night's events with Brett Hilton, I think it's fair to say no matter how hard modern science tries to define and understand this world, there's no better way to describe certain things as simply demonic.
02:45:06.000 When will America or the world realize there is truly a spiritual reality to our world?
02:45:13.000 And what might be the reaction to this revelation?
02:45:19.000 Well, it used to be commonplace knowledge.
02:45:21.000 It used to be everyone knew.
02:45:24.000 Now, so even when, like, you know, in Old Testament times, when it was written, there's some people pointed out, and there's a lot of good readings on the Old Testament where they say one of the reasons that so many of the spiritual concepts aren't really clearly defined or,
02:45:40.000 you know, as fleshed out as we may want is because these concepts were well known and understood in those times.
02:45:48.000 So, concepts of like angels and demons and what is the counsel of.
02:45:53.000 Uh, the council of gods and all these different things.
02:45:55.000 It's like, oh, well, the readers would have known, you know, because it's common parlance at the time, what those things meant.
02:46:03.000 I was thinking about um worship on a drive over here, and about I think the angels don't want you to worship like anytime you're worshiping something outside of well, they don't want you to worship them.
02:46:15.000 I think I don't think angels want you to worship them.
02:46:17.000 Yeah, I think they're just there to help you, and like God doesn't want your worship, it just is.
02:46:21.000 But if a demon, demons want it.
02:46:24.000 They want worship.
02:46:25.000 I think the issue is that a lot of liberals view the word worship as an insult, as if it's like, you can't tell me what to do.
02:46:33.000 You know?
02:46:35.000 They find it offensive that you would be commanded to worship.
02:46:38.000 I've kind of got like this interesting take on it as I guess I've gotten older.
02:46:43.000 It's like
02:46:45.000 the reason that worship is important is because if you center your life around God, you'll live a better and happier life.
02:46:51.000 And so it's this take that.
02:46:55.000 When the things the Bible says are good are actually good for you, and the things that it says are bad are actually bad for you.
02:47:03.000 So, if you look at it that way as like a guide, basic instructions before leaving Earth, right?
02:47:09.000 V I B L E, get it?
02:47:11.000 Basic instructions before leaving Earth.
02:47:13.000 Yeah, I'm not the first one to say that, but it's sort of like you will actually live a better and more fulfilling life if you follow this.
02:47:24.000 You know, as a way, if people were to understand that, I mean, we talked about envy a lot tonight, right?
02:47:31.000 And the dangers of, you know, if you go and indulge that too far, then it's like, hey, what if there were a book that actually taught us the right way to live?
02:47:39.000 And it's like, oh, it's right here.
02:47:42.000 Yeah.
02:47:42.000 Well, Jesus, are we having a religion?
02:47:44.000 I didn't say Jesus.
02:47:45.000 I didn't bring it up.
02:47:46.000 I didn't bring it up.
02:47:48.000 Jesus.
02:47:49.000 Pride being a sin.
02:47:50.000 I do have the rosary, though.
02:47:52.000 Pride is confusing because it's a sin.
02:47:55.000 Pride is also a sin.
02:47:56.000 Yes, of course.
02:47:56.000 Humility, which is dangerous.
02:47:58.000 Pride is putting yourself at the center of your existence.
02:48:05.000 Interesting.
02:48:05.000 Yeah.
02:48:06.000 Pride is putting yourself at the center.
02:48:08.000 Envy is putting what someone else has at the center of your life.
02:48:12.000 Lust is putting a passion at the center of your life.
02:48:16.000 Gluttony is putting food and physical pleasure at the center of your life.
02:48:22.000 Sloth is putting just apathy and.
02:48:27.000 You know, laziness at the center of your life.
02:48:30.000 And there's one more that I'm missing.
02:48:32.000 Greed and greed.
02:48:34.000 Well, I mean, that's just obvious.
02:48:35.000 Money, which I think is the false God of earth.
02:48:37.000 We can teach people that money ain't what you think it is.
02:48:40.000 That's how we're going to solve the spiritual crisis of reality. 0.99
02:48:42.000 Because for whatever reason, this banking order out of Switzerland maybe they were Jewish, maybe they weren't, but they twisted and forced people to look at money as if it is God. 1.00
02:48:51.000 The way people chase it around, if you put God at the center of your life, you just, everything just opens up. 0.99
02:48:57.000 They didn't force anyone to do anything.
02:48:59.000 Worship money?
02:49:00.000 No.
02:49:00.000 You think it's just inevitable?
02:49:03.000 Look, all money, first of all, money is a couple things, but one, it's a lubricant, right?
02:49:11.000 It makes it easier to transact.
02:49:13.000 You got a chicken, I got a sandwich, trade the chicken for the sandwich.
02:49:20.000 No, the value of each can be represented in money and it's easier to trade.
02:49:26.000 So you don't have to run around with your chicken looking for a guy that has a sandwich that's willing to trade, first of all.
02:49:32.000 And second of all, Money in and of itself represents something.
02:49:37.000 It represents past effort, right?
02:49:41.000 So people do want to acquire money because it provides what you need.
02:49:46.000 It helps, it provides the means to get what you need to live.
02:49:50.000 Not everybody is looking to have, you know, an exorbitant amount of money.
02:49:57.000 Everyone wants to have enough money so that way they don't feel the stress of not being able to provide for themselves.
02:50:02.000 The friction.
02:50:04.000 And I wish that that was the way it worked, except that we have the Federal Reserve, which kind of.
02:50:08.000 Right.
02:50:09.000 It doesn't represent past work anymore.
02:50:11.000 It just doesn't.
02:50:13.000 And like, screw up that.
02:50:14.000 It is Luby.
02:50:15.000 But some people, the original process.
02:50:16.000 Why are you encouraging him?
02:50:18.000 I know.
02:50:18.000 It's true.
02:50:19.000 Because money is our false god right now.
02:50:22.000 It's just a straight up, it's hard to, and maybe there's cognitive dissonance involved with that.
02:50:26.000 I agree with that.
02:50:26.000 I certainly agree with that.
02:50:28.000 Bro, shatter the vines.
02:50:30.000 Money is a false god to some people, but not everybody is motivated purely by money.
02:50:37.000 Right?
02:50:38.000 Once you have, once you have your needs met, right?
02:50:42.000 Extra money on top of it doesn't make your life significantly better.
02:50:46.000 It's not supposed to, because it's like lubricant, too much lube, and you just can't get any traction.
02:50:50.000 But these dudes will hoard lube in their bank accounts and be like, I'll give you a little bit of my lube because the lube's making more of itself.
02:50:57.000 How many people do you think are actually hoarding money?
02:51:00.000 Ian, hoarding money means nothing.
02:51:02.000 By the way, the reason that's so funny is because he's actually right.
02:51:05.000 He's actually right.
02:51:07.000 It's slippery at best.
02:51:11.000 So when you say dudes that are hoarding money, are you conceptualizing like Jeff Bezos?
02:51:15.000 They're over lubed.
02:51:16.000 They are.
02:51:17.000 They're just slick.
02:51:18.000 Over lubed.
02:51:19.000 I'm thinking of Diddy.
02:51:20.000 No, I'm thinking of people that own BlackRock, the people that own the machine that makes the money.
02:51:26.000 So, the people that own BlackRock, yes, they make a lot of money because they manage so many people's money.
02:51:33.000 People buy stock in BlackRock because it produces a return for them.
02:51:40.000 They invest their money in BlackRock, right?
02:51:42.000 They're just an investment management company.
02:51:46.000 And yes, they buy assets to raise the value of BlackRock overall, but they're doing it because people are giving their money to them, giving BlackRock their money to manage.
02:51:59.000 Like, you get that, right?
02:52:02.000 Yeah, but we're.
02:52:04.000 It's a vague.
02:52:05.000 There's nothing vague.
02:52:06.000 If you look up who owns BlackRock, it's investors.
02:52:09.000 Yeah.
02:52:10.000 It's people that own stock in BlackRock is State Street.
02:52:13.000 And you're like, who owns State Street?
02:52:15.000 Part of who owns State Street is BlackRock.
02:52:17.000 But the most people, because they buy stock in each other's companies.
02:52:21.000 I own you and you own me.
02:52:22.000 That's not the case beforehand. 0.65
02:52:23.000 I'm trying to explain it.
02:52:24.000 I'm trying to explain it.
02:52:25.000 Because they buy stock in each other's companies because they're good investments.
02:52:31.000 You can own a part of BlackRock by buying stock in BlackRock.
02:52:35.000 It's an investment company.
02:52:37.000 People give their money to BlackRock because BlackRock has people that work there that know how to judge the value of companies, what a company's worth, and they'll buy stock in that.
02:52:48.000 And the value of the stock goes up.
02:52:50.000 The people that own stock in BlackRock, the value of they get a return on their money.
02:52:54.000 It's not some kind of like just nefarious thing that's looking to screw people and consume.
02:53:01.000 The banking establishment?
02:53:03.000 BlackRock.
02:53:03.000 No, BlackRock.
02:53:07.000 Well, you brought up BlackRock, so I'm explaining it to you.
02:53:09.000 It's an arm of the banking system, but.
02:53:10.000 It's not an arm of the banking system.
02:53:12.000 It's an investment company.
02:53:14.000 You can buy stock in BlackRock.
02:53:16.000 It's a thousand dollars.
02:53:17.000 People that have 401ks, people that have investments, a lot of them have their investments with, partially with BlackRock.
02:53:25.000 Yeah, it's like a default of indexes, is that BlackRock will take your.
02:53:29.000 Okay, but the point that I'm making is it's not like BlackRock is this nefarious bad thing.
02:53:36.000 Millions of Americans own stock in BlackRock.
02:53:39.000 The reason they own stock in BlackRock is because BlackRock is good at managing money.
02:53:45.000 So they buy companies that they think they can buy for cheap.
02:53:50.000 The value of the company goes up.
02:53:51.000 That means the value of BlackRock stock goes up.
02:53:56.000 What are you arguing exactly?
02:54:00.000 We were talking about like.
02:54:02.000 That Marty's a false god.
02:54:03.000 Yeah.
02:54:04.000 And you brought up how BlackRock is this.
02:54:07.000 They're part of it.
02:54:07.000 I mean, it's a bank for international settlements, is where the problem is.
02:54:10.000 That's not BlackRock, though.
02:54:11.000 BlackRock is an investment company.
02:54:13.000 Right.
02:54:13.000 It's moving a lot of that money around, but the money's being created by a central bank.
02:54:18.000 Yeah, by the Federal Reserve, yeah.
02:54:19.000 But no, by the Bank for International Settlements, which then it's being given to the Federal Reserve to loan to us at interest.
02:54:24.000 Well, actually, to be, I mean, if you want to get down to brass tacks, anytime you buy anything on a credit card or anytime anyone uses credit, the money is created.
02:54:33.000 It's created out of thin air.
02:54:37.000 So it's not just the Federal Reserve that's creating money.
02:54:40.000 It's every time anyone swipes a Visa or a MasterCard or an American Express.
02:54:48.000 I still believe what my statement at the top is money is our current false god that.
02:54:54.000 Or being directed to worship by a small group of people.
02:54:57.000 I don't think that we're being directed to worship money by a small group of people.
02:55:02.000 Maybe I can try to synthesize what you both are saying because I do think that, I mean, obviously, I think what Phil is saying is correct in a pure capitalist society,
02:55:13.000 but I think that the influence of the Federal Reserve and other problems that we have in the system that are diluting that and are distorting that.
02:55:25.000 Have created the over financialization, which I think is what Ian is kind of trying to get at, where it's like there's a disconnect between that pure exchange of services and investments to this system where it does feel like there are people at the top,
02:55:44.000 like the Kevin O'Learys and others, who create these ridiculous financial instruments and are able to get money from their buddies and then sell them at a loss, but then they pocket the difference. 0.90
02:55:57.000 That it's just distorted the system so much, whereby we get this K shaped economy, and we've had it since 2008.
02:56:03.000 And this is what I was doing. 1.00
02:56:06.000 Oh!
02:56:08.000 Is this Hunt?
02:56:10.000 Or is this the body cam?
02:56:11.000 You're the cop.
02:56:12.000 I swear.
02:56:13.000 Oh, yeah, Axe.
02:56:14.000 I love the Axe on.
02:56:15.000 It's high fire.
02:56:17.000 Axe on.
02:56:18.000 It looks like a target or something.
02:56:21.000 It's weird.
02:56:21.000 Yeah, I don't know.
02:56:24.000 The injury is concerned.
02:56:26.000 Anyway, we got one more caller.
02:56:27.000 So, Jacob, do you want to add anything or shout anything out?
02:56:31.000 I love this show so much because only can we go from talking about the spiritual revival of America to Black Rock all because filmmakers.
02:56:38.000 And then to chicken video games.
02:56:40.000 And then to chicken video, yeah.
02:56:42.000 Just to add something real quick to that kind of idea that I was suggesting about a spiritual revival, I was talking to Papa Serjakov, my grandfather, the other day.
02:56:53.000 Is that what you call him?
02:56:54.000 I was making the point.
02:56:56.000 No, no.
02:56:57.000 Papa Serjakov?
02:56:59.000 I was making the point that his generation grew up in church and then some left.
02:57:03.000 And had to find their way back.
02:57:05.000 But I really feel like my generation with Gen Z actually grew up in a world where he wasn't present.
02:57:09.000 Some of us were forced to go to church, but regardless, we went out into a world where we didn't see him in media and music or anything.
02:57:15.000 So I think there's kind of an interesting spiritual revival because it's more of a genuine seeking him because we never knew him in the first place.
02:57:23.000 We weren't raised along with him like previous generations.
02:57:25.000 So I don't know. 1.00
02:57:26.000 We might see something interesting and hopefully the strong conservative, right, can fight off the Zumerwaffen. 1.00
02:57:32.000 But Phil, you're welcome for my last call in. 0.97
02:57:35.000 Uh, for cutting off my, what was it, Mike Benz?
02:57:37.000 So it could end the show.
02:57:39.000 And I just wanted to say, since you're kind of new to podcasting, I can give you a few tips and pointers on podcasting if you ever need any help.
02:57:44.000 Thanks, thanks for calling in, brother.
02:57:48.000 Thank you, man.
02:57:50.000 Last but not least, we got T Bone.
02:57:52.000 What up, good evening, everybody, Jack.
02:57:56.000 I wanted to say that I met you and your parents at the JD Vance rally at the uh, the Redding Airport.
02:58:03.000 Is that the one where I had the I?
02:58:05.000 So, uh, funny enough, I Wasn't planning to sell books that day.
02:58:09.000 And we actually got your book.
02:58:10.000 I got your book and you signed it for me.
02:58:12.000 Thank you.
02:58:12.000 I'll tell you a funny story about that real quick.
02:58:14.000 Not like in super long, like Tim includes way too many details in his stories.
02:58:19.000 But he's like, and then, and then, so we went to Trump.
02:58:23.000 Like, thank you, Tim.
02:58:25.000 So, no, so I was planning to actually go to that rally, but I showed up late and security had already been closed down.
02:58:31.000 So, because we were doing something else earlier in the day, we were running around Pennsylvania doing different events.
02:58:36.000 And so I just went to like down the street, grabbed a, bought a table at the Walmart, and then came back and set up books for sale in the parking lot.
02:58:46.000 And we just hung out and it was great.
02:58:47.000 Oh, nice.
02:58:48.000 How many books did you sell?
02:58:50.000 We had two cases, and I think we sold all of them. 0.97
02:58:51.000 That's fucking hilarious. 0.85
02:58:54.000 I got a photo with you and your parents, and I got one of your books, and I just read it. 0.98
02:58:58.000 Great, great book.
02:59:00.000 I appreciate it.
02:59:00.000 Thank you.
02:59:01.000 Thank you, sir.
02:59:01.000 Well, I appreciate you.
02:59:02.000 That was cool.
02:59:03.000 I still have that table, by the way.
02:59:06.000 I used it in my garage.
02:59:07.000 Shout out.
02:59:07.000 Do you ever feel that undermining the humanity in these people?
02:59:11.000 I'm sorry, this is not the question for right now.
02:59:13.000 We're taking callers.
02:59:14.000 Undermining the humanity in these people does a disservice to overthrowing their ideology?
02:59:19.000 No, I don't, actually.
02:59:19.000 That's why I gave it the title.
02:59:22.000 And in fact, I argue that they are the ones who, so too unhuman is actually a verb.
02:59:28.000 And they are the ones who deny the humanity in everyone they're opposed to because they deny human rights. 0.99
02:59:34.000 It seems to deny human nature, too, some of this communism bullshit. 0.99
02:59:37.000 Absolutely. 1.00
02:59:38.000 Absolutely. 1.00
02:59:38.000 Sorry, T-bone, what were you. 1.00
02:59:40.000 And again, they deny human rights to begin with. 1.00
02:59:42.000 So they unhuman others. 1.00
02:59:45.000 T-man. 0.96
02:59:46.000 All good.
02:59:47.000 No, my question is for Jack, though.
02:59:47.000 All good, Ian.
02:59:49.000 Okay.
02:59:50.000 And panel, if anybody else wants to answer the question.
02:59:53.000 But here it goes.
02:59:54.000 I have all the answers.
02:59:55.000 Socialist candidates are winning primaries and some Democrats are quitting the party.
03:00:02.000 Why is the right still failing to offer a clear, concrete alternative that speaks to people who feel the system is rigged against them?
03:00:12.000 And what should be the message that, like, what should the actual message be for that then?
03:00:18.000 Yeah, so it's two things.
03:00:21.000 You know, number one, I mean, obviously, I think we kind of spent the last three hours.
03:00:25.000 Basically, you know, talking about this very question.
03:00:27.000 But I think it's pretty simple.
03:00:29.000 It's that this isn't a messaging problem, this is an action problem.
03:00:33.000 And conservatives who have taken power are, you know, have failed to act enough.
03:00:40.000 And a lot of this is to do with legislation.
03:00:42.000 A lot of this is to do with things that the president requires or is required, I should say, to have Congress pass legislation on.
03:00:51.000 And because they have not done so, and a variety of other things, by the way, it's created this lack of.
03:00:56.000 Action.
03:00:57.000 So, this vacuum where people feel that their expectations of the 2024 to 2026 era have not been met.
03:01:05.000 And because they feel that those expectations have not been met.
03:01:07.000 And in addition, when they look at DC, they say, you're not even doing anything to fix the problems. 0.74
03:01:15.000 So, this generates the throw the bums out mentality. 0.94
03:01:19.000 This, of course, is what led to Joe Biden and all of those bums getting thrown out in 2024, the same anti establishment wave. 0.50
03:01:27.000 I remember I was there.
03:01:29.000 I was part of it.
03:01:30.000 And the danger then is that if you don't make good on those promises, then you don't deliver, then people are going to still be upset because they won't have felt the relief from the Biden era.
03:01:44.000 And quite frankly, I think that there's a lot of Republicans out there who are, remember, they're the ones who are running for Congress right now.
03:01:51.000 They feel that they shouldn't have to do any of those things because they almost feel like they're either entitled for their offices or they feel that, oh, well, I'm opposed to Biden and that's enough.
03:02:01.000 It's not good enough.
03:02:02.000 And unfortunately, I think a lot of people are going to find that out very soon.
03:02:04.000 So, what should they be doing?
03:02:06.000 They need to be taking action.
03:02:07.000 They're on recess right now, for example.
03:02:09.000 They're literally on recess right now rather than being in DC and passing those laws.
03:02:14.000 It's, I mean, what are you offering people?
03:02:17.000 Seriously.
03:02:19.000 Do you think that?
03:02:20.000 Do you think people should get away from the Trump ideology because he's going to not be relevant within the next couple of years?
03:02:29.000 There's no future for the Republican Party if they give up on nationalist populism.
03:02:35.000 They will be relegated to a regional party.
03:02:38.000 So if they give up on quote unquote Trumpism, which is nationalist populism, then you will go back to losing the Rust Belt like George W. Bush lost it, like Mitt Romney lost it.
03:02:49.000 Like Paul Ryan, like John McCain, and you will be destroyed.
03:02:55.000 Anybody else?
03:02:56.000 Tim, Phil?
03:03:02.000 The Republicans are in a hard spot because the Democrats are basically saying we'll give you free everything, right?
03:03:08.000 They're going to give you free housing, they're going to give you free groceries, they're going to give you free healthcare, they're going to give you free buses, they're going to give you free everything.
03:03:16.000 They're going to just give you everything for free.
03:03:19.000 And it's hard to mount a conservative argument that's compelling against everything is free.
03:03:28.000 So I don't know what the Republicans need to say.
03:03:31.000 I'm not a messaging guy, I don't think.
03:03:36.000 But the Republicans are in a really hard spot.
03:03:37.000 Look, when everything's real tough, especially for young people, when your dollar's not going as far as you want it to, or you don't feel like you can pay your bills, the line, pull yourself up by your bootstraps,
03:03:52.000 does not play.
03:03:54.000 It just doesn't.
03:03:55.000 The idea of go out there and make something of yourself that doesn't play.
03:03:59.000 Because the people that would be receptive to that, they're already out there making something of themselves.
03:04:05.000 Like you don't need to tell a go getter to get up and go get it, he's already doing it.
03:04:10.000 So, how you convince people that are not internally motivated to go out and do something for themselves.
03:04:20.000 What you do is you turn the temperature up real hot.
03:04:23.000 So, yeah, weak die off and the strong survive.
03:04:26.000 And, you know, hard times make strong men.
03:04:29.000 Chelation.
03:04:31.000 On that note, that's friction.
03:04:32.000 On that note, a
03:04:38.000 chemical aggravant.
03:04:39.000 We're living in the time of weed dudes.
03:04:43.000 And weed dudes will give way to nicotine men, and nicotine men will make good times.
03:04:43.000 I mean, it's.
03:04:48.000 I recommend you guys read the article from the video I published earlier about Vice, where the dude who worked at Vice wrote everything that happened and how Vice crashed.
03:04:58.000 It's really fascinating.
03:05:00.000 Basically,.
03:05:02.000 Man, you had Joe Rogan stayed true.
03:05:05.000 Barstool stayed true.
03:05:06.000 Outkick stayed true.
03:05:07.000 Vice said, Tell us what you want us to say.
03:05:10.000 And so Shane was more interested in getting positive press than staying true.
03:05:15.000 Outkick sells, Barstool sells, Rogan's the king of podcasting, and Vice evaporated. 0.98
03:05:21.000 Fucking wild. 0.98
03:05:22.000 But it helps you understand what it means to be a weak man. 1.00
03:05:25.000 Stay true.
03:05:26.000 Yeah.
03:05:27.000 You want to shout anything out, brother?
03:05:29.000 I do.
03:05:29.000 Yes, sir.
03:05:30.000 I want to shout two things out.
03:05:31.000 One thing my friend Hades already shouted out, but I definitely.
03:05:35.000 I definitely want to double down on it.
03:05:37.000 The cast brew coffee event was by far the best Timcast event that I have personally gone to, and I've gone to, I think, every single one of them now.
03:05:48.000 And I think Mark did a really, really, really good job on that one.
03:05:52.000 So shout out to Mark on that one.
03:05:55.000 But the other thing that I wanted to shout out is the boonies.
03:05:58.000 Tim, you are doing such a great job with the boonies, and I cannot wait for my skateboards.
03:06:03.000 I got seven more of your skateboards, and I just can't wait for.
03:06:08.000 For the boards.
03:06:09.000 Well, I gotta tell you guys though, real quick, put a pin in that.
03:06:13.000 So, the boards are taking a long time.
03:06:15.000 And, you know, Chuck's working his hardest trying to get things done.
03:06:19.000 And he's saying, like, people are emailing, being like, yo, what the hell's going on?
03:06:21.000 Like, it's been weeks.
03:06:23.000 It's been a month.
03:06:23.000 What's up?
03:06:24.000 I'm going to tell you straight up.
03:06:25.000 I told Chuck, let him know what's happening.
03:06:28.000 American manufacturers are going out of business.
03:06:29.000 We've lost four manufacturers already.
03:06:32.000 We keep getting told by distributors, just buy Chinese and we won't do it.
03:06:36.000 So, we recently had another factory go out of business.
03:06:39.000 American factories are shutting down.
03:06:41.000 And so now we're shifting production to another factory.
03:06:44.000 We've got to transfer all the data over and all the specs. 0.94
03:06:47.000 It sucks.
03:06:49.000 But I'm, so I just say this, guys, it might take a little while, but there ain't no way in hell I'm getting Chinese boards. 1.00
03:06:55.000 It's just not going to happen. 1.00
03:06:56.000 And so, I mean, Tim, I'm willing to wait for next year even to get my board.
03:07:02.000 But what I'm saying is, maybe even if need be, bump up the price if possible.
03:07:08.000 Price isn't the issue.
03:07:09.000 I know people will still pay for the boards.
03:07:12.000 Price isn't the issue. 0.92
03:07:14.000 The factories don't exist.
03:07:16.000 We are on our fourth factory, I think, right now.
03:07:19.000 They're just all going out of business.
03:07:21.000 And despite the fact that we're one of the biggest in terms of sales, because we sell out like 500 boards every time we do a launch, these factories are like, well, we can't handle it.
03:07:30.000 So we're out of business.
03:07:32.000 Not because of the sales, because they don't have staff anymore, because they're just like, I can't afford it.
03:07:39.000 I'm going to get a regular job. 0.97
03:07:41.000 So it's just fucking wild. 0.94
03:07:43.000 Mark was like, Tim, I think this is. 0.98
03:07:44.000 What about build your own?
03:07:46.000 Because this is why they're going out of business.
03:07:49.000 Building our own wood shop to build skateboards would require something like 20,000 skateboard sales per month.
03:07:55.000 This is why they're going under.
03:07:57.000 We can sell a lot, they can't sell enough to stay open.
03:08:02.000 So that's just the reality of it.
03:08:04.000 China can do it because China's expanding.
03:08:07.000 But, you know, look, we're getting them done. 0.92
03:08:09.000 We're getting them done.
03:08:10.000 It'll happen.
03:08:11.000 Just getting delayed.
03:08:12.000 So appreciate it.
03:08:15.000 Yes, sir.
03:08:15.000 Yes, sir.
03:08:16.000 You guys have a lovely.
03:08:17.000 Actually, one more thing I want to talk to you about, Tim.
03:08:20.000 You were talking. 0.99
03:08:21.000 Trash. 1.00
03:08:22.000 You were talking trash about scooters last night, right? 0.99
03:08:24.000 And I myself am a scooter person. 0.51
03:08:26.000 And man, I want to understand what is your deal with me, man?
03:08:31.000 So, scooter culture represents when guys in suits who didn't skate, bike, or blade or do anything culture related wanted to sell a cheap product to moms.
03:08:41.000 And it is the corporatization of action sports.
03:08:44.000 Action sports, like, so rollerblading actually started everything.
03:08:49.000 Technically, it's really fascinating.
03:08:51.000 You get skateboards, which is dudes.
03:08:54.000 They started taking wood planks and putting roller skate trucks on them to simulate surfing.
03:09:00.000 And then they started just goofing off, and the tricks were very rudimentary.
03:09:04.000 You had roller skates, and then you got roller blades for a variety of reasons.
03:09:07.000 Roller bladers started trying to slide on their blades, they took their wheels out.
03:09:11.000 They started adapting these things in the streets.
03:09:15.000 Roller blades, of course, and roller skates have been around for a very, very long time.
03:09:18.000 Skateboards were built, bikes were taken, and naturally action sports started to emerge.
03:09:24.000 Then some guys in suits said, We need a cheap toy that parents will buy.
03:09:32.000 And scooters are easier than skateboards, easier than rollerblades.
03:09:35.000 There's no learning curve.
03:09:36.000 So parents started opting for the $20 scooter over the rollerblades, the bikes, and the skateboards.
03:09:42.000 And kids started popping up with gear that did not work at skateparks.
03:09:47.000 From there, with respect, scooters started developing a culture from it. 0.99
03:09:52.000 But what I don't like about it, It's that it was an injection into action sports with shitty, shit grade materials. 0.97
03:10:01.000 And with all due respect, it is the weakest of the disciplines. 0.99
03:10:04.000 It is weaker than rollerblading.
03:10:05.000 Like, I'm sorry, that's just true.
03:10:08.000 It is what it is.
03:10:09.000 Now, that being said, I absolutely respect Jordan Clark's triple flare as one of the most amazing things done in action sports history.
03:10:15.000 R. Willie is one of the greatest athletes in action sports history, and he's a scooter guy.
03:10:19.000 Granted, he upgraded to BMX. 1.00
03:10:21.000 I'm just saying, in terms of what scooters are historically, they represent the cigarette company saying, like the guy with the cigar being like, kids are dumb, sell them cheap shit. 0.97
03:10:32.000 And then it pulled people away from the core action sports and the core culture and made something substantially weaker, which I don't respect. 0.96
03:10:39.000 Like, I don't respect the business element of it.
03:10:41.000 The physical element, I don't care if you're doing gymnastics or unicycling or pogo sticking.
03:10:46.000 It's all cool.
03:10:47.000 But even pogo sticking is more natural in terms of the development of an action sport and unicycling, especially.
03:10:53.000 No one came to people saying, We're going to sell unicycles to kids to get them to go to skate parks.
03:10:58.000 It was intended to target this demographic and it displaced a lot of what made action sports.
03:11:04.000 And I actually would argue, scooting is what's killing action sports and the X Games, not intentionally.
03:11:11.000 But the last thing we needed was so rollerblading dies off.
03:11:14.000 It's massive.
03:11:16.000 BMXing holds its own for a bit.
03:11:18.000 Skateboarding is explosive.
03:11:20.000 Skateboards are hard to ride, relatively.
03:11:22.000 So parents started buying scooters instead, which was cheap and didn't work at skate parks.
03:11:26.000 Kids got in the way, and this shattered the opportunity of action sports, which included all disciplines when scooters came around.
03:11:35.000 Scooters still aren't even in the X Games, but they're absorbing a large portion of sales, which shattered the industry and actually killed it off for everybody.
03:11:43.000 So there's a lot to get into with scooters.
03:11:46.000 I think the biggest, and this, what I'm offended by is pro skateboarders who, like, I'm not kidding.
03:11:52.000 I bring a pro skateboarder shows up and he's like 38, 40, and his kid comes in, his kid's on a scooter, and I'm like, what are you doing?
03:11:57.000 Why is your kid on a scooter, bro?
03:11:59.000 Who's going to buy skateboards and carry on action sports legacy if you got your kid on a scooter, a sport that's not even in the X Games or the Olympics?
03:12:08.000 They don't care.
03:12:08.000 They just don't care.
03:12:09.000 So, you know, there you go.
03:12:13.000 Okay.
03:12:14.000 All right.
03:12:15.000 I mean, like, I will say that the triple flares are really cool.
03:12:17.000 I mean, like, doing some backflips, like, And okay, Tim, that's I'll grant you, I'll grant you, I'll grant you all your points.
03:12:25.000 I'm gonna put it like this You walk up to a 10 year old kid who's never done anything before and you had him a bicycle.
03:12:31.000 Can he ride it?
03:12:32.000 No.
03:12:33.000 He can't.
03:12:33.000 Yeah.
03:12:34.000 You give him rollerblades.
03:12:35.000 Can he skate?
03:12:36.000 No.
03:12:37.000 You hand him a skateboard.
03:12:38.000 Can he skateboard?
03:12:39.000 You hand him a scooter.
03:12:39.000 No.
03:12:40.000 Can he scoot?
03:12:40.000 Yes.
03:12:42.000 Scooting is, scooting was a, was the reason parents bought it is they cost $19.99 and the kid could just stand on it and he didn't have to practice.
03:12:51.000 You could, scooters are easy to ride.
03:12:54.000 Skateboards, people lose their balance, but after about a week, you get the hang of it.
03:12:58.000 Rollerblades, like roller skates, you got to get the hang of it.
03:13:00.000 You got to learn how to ride a bicycle.
03:13:02.000 People get the hang of it.
03:13:04.000 Scooters, you could just stand on and go.
03:13:06.000 And so it was the easiest thing for parents to do.
03:13:08.000 And it displaced the industry.
03:13:09.000 It killed skate shops.
03:13:10.000 It shut down skate clothing companies, skate sponsors.
03:13:13.000 And I blame skateboarders, but it's just the corporatization.
03:13:17.000 Skateboarding, skateboards were $100, scooters were $20.
03:13:21.000 Now, granted, core scooters, the real legit industry ones now, are much more expensive.
03:13:25.000 But they got a Bungie.
03:13:26.000 Mine's 400. 0.87
03:13:27.000 I mean, like, it's not a cheap piece of trash, you know?
03:13:30.000 But there's no clothing companies anymore.
03:13:32.000 There's no videos anymore.
03:13:34.000 There's no industry anymore.
03:13:36.000 And it's largely due to what happened in the early 2000s with moms deciding to buy cheapo scooters for their kids instead of supporting core shops that have been around for decades.
03:13:46.000 And now skate shops are all gone.
03:13:48.000 And, like, there's almost no core action sports shops anymore.
03:13:54.000 They don't exist.
03:13:55.000 And it's not entirely the fault of scooting, but it was this corporatization move.
03:13:59.000 Anyway.
03:13:59.000 We are over time, but you want to talk about it better?
03:14:02.000 Have a good one, guys.
03:14:03.000 All right, thank you, Bob.
03:14:05.000 I'll throw on that that I was surprised to find in Eastern Europe, rollerblading is actually kind of coming back.
03:14:12.000 Rollerblading's been coming back for a while.
03:14:14.000 I've been seeing a ton of it there.
03:14:16.000 The reason why I respect rollerblading is because roller skates have been around forever, for hundreds of years.
03:14:20.000 Sure.
03:14:20.000 And then when rollerblades were getting made inline skates, they called them, largely for like street hockey and stuff, kids took the wheels out of the third wheel, got removed so they could jump and grind on it.
03:14:30.000 I remember that.
03:14:31.000 It wasn't intended to be that.
03:14:32.000 And so then companies said, let's flatten the sole so you can slide on the sides as well.
03:14:37.000 So rollerblading developed.
03:14:39.000 Not intending to be an action sport and not super cheap.
03:14:43.000 Rollerblades were relatively cheap, but it is what kicked off the skate parks, the X games, and everything.
03:14:49.000 The X games started because of rollerblading.
03:14:51.000 Skateboarding, I don't respect this, intentionally destroyed the rollerblade industry.
03:14:55.000 This is true. 0.96
03:14:57.000 It was an intentional PR campaign among pro skateboarders and media to mock rollerbladers as gay and losers and nerds because they wanted to steal the sales. 1.00
03:15:06.000 That's stupid. 1.00
03:15:07.000 But scooting was like, toy companies were like, this is easier to ride than anything else. 1.00
