World records are being set now almost every day.
The Guinness World Record for most unmanned aerial vehicles, you know, drones in the air at the same time, has just been set.
Genesis, the Hyundai-owned auto brand just broke the record or set the record.
3,281 drones into the Shanghai Night Sky a few days ago.
And they were doing that to promote their entrance into China.
And it looks, it actually looks kind of cool.
It was their brand Genesis with their, you know, their auto brand and then the big
words Genesis underneath.
So they had two genesis.
You know, you had the car logo and then Genesis underneath with 3,281 drones all lit up in the sky.
And it looks really cool.
But it also breaks my heart that I don't have a Guinness World Record.
We here at Chewing the Fat and me, Jeff Fisher, need to have a Guinness World Record.
So email me, Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com with some ideas.
We're going to have to just start going through the Guinness World Record.
record book and find some records to break and or set because this show, this show needs to have a
Guinness World record and I'm tired of saying it and thinking it and without any action.
So that needs to happen.
It just needs to happen.
Welcome.
Welcome to Chewing the Fat.
Good news for those of you that were thinking.
Man, I really want the COVID-19 vaccine, but I can't get it.
It's not available.
Well, as of today, if you're listening live, the 6th of April, 2021.
If you live in New York, you're eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine.
They're setting up the new subway series between Pfizer and Moderna.
Yay!
Now, more than 30 states have made shots available to all adults.
including a dozen more yesterday, and New Jersey announced its opening up eligibility to everyone over 16, beginning on April 19th.
So if you are one of the people that were concerned that, poof, man, I really want the vaccine, but it's not available to me.
Well, it is now.
So have fun.
Today is a big day.
Today is the day that Beautiful Things, the Hunter Biden book, is released.
for all to read.
Now, there have been plenty of Hunter interviews out there,
and we're going to go over some a little bit later on in this podcast.
I'm going to be talking to Phelam McLeer,
who is producing the My Son Hunter movie.
And I am looking forward to his thoughts on all the interviews
that Hunter has given and the notes coming from the book.
It's just fascinating.
It does seem that he has an issue
about remembering things.
Now, could that have been brought on by the drugs?
Sure.
But I'm looking forward to the making of the movie, My Son Hunter,
which is going to be crowdfunded from people like you.
You can learn more about it at My Son Huntermovie.com.
The movie's going to tell it all.
Hunter's wild escapades, the contents on his laptop,
his shady foreign business deals,
yes, and even his ties to China.
Now, you may not remember Phelam McLare, but he is the filmmaker behind the Gossinel movie.
And this feature film, My Son Hunter, is going to expose the Hunter Biden scandal.
And, you know, Hollywood is not going to fund this movie.
So it's too controversial.
And it exposes the truth behind some of the most powerful people in politics.
And so that's why they're bringing the film directly to the people like you.
You, your gift of $10, $50, $100, or even more will help expose the most corrupt family.
You know, probably since the Clintons, but I would argue that is the most corrupt family.
And the donation is 100% tax deductible.
My SonHuntermovie.com.
Make your donation, help out.
Let's get this movie made.
I am so looking forward to it.
And we'll be talking to Phelan McLear a little bit later on in the show.
But for sure, go to my sonhuntermovie.com and give what you can and let's get this movie made.
I know right now they're at 20% of what they need to get this movie made.
Let's bump that up a little, okay?
Mysonhuntermovie.com.
Okay.
Lena Dunham.
You know where you love her.
The 34-year-old actress, according to this story, can now add fashion designer.
to her resume.
Now, just because someone says they're a fashion designer,
I mean, I am fashion personally.
If you listen to this show, you know that.
But she doesn't mean that you are a good fashion designer.
But she has now teamed up with the size inclusive designer shopping site,
11 all-A.
To create a collection of five pieces,
priced from $98 to $298, available in sizes 12 to 26.
Ooh.
Starting today, April 6th.
Now, you know, good.
You know, there should be clothes for, you know, fat gals just like fat guys,
of which I am, you know, an athletically overweight fat guy.
And I have, you know, talked about that forever.
But the design.
The designs that they show that they're making a big deal that she made,
the Navy pinstriped blazer, the mini skirt, a printed dress,
which looks a lot like Moos by Jeffie, by the way,
a shirt and a mock neck tank.
It's not that good.
I'm sorry, Elena.
You know, I realize that sometimes, you know,
there's plenty of stuff that fat guys wear that you wouldn't wear if you,
I love
I love plenty of designer clothes
but they don't come in fat guy sizes
if they did I would wear them
but apparently they don't want anything to do
with fat guys so she has designed
these and these are great and you know with the 11
on re and she said the double standard exists
when it comes to best and worst dress list as well
and you know I've often wondered
when designer outfits I've worn have been
mocked and ripped apart, whether the same look on a more mainstream fashion body might be celebrated.
Well, here's the deal, Lena.
You're not...
I got to be careful how I put this, okay?
Let's just be clear.
Lena is not the best-looking female on the planet.
All right?
There you go.
There, I said it.
All right?
There, I said it.
Now, I get it.
She's a star.
And, you know, we love her boldness.
And so does her 2.8 million followers on Instagram.
I get it.
But you'd think that she'd be able to come up with something a little bit better than what she did.
So.
Anyway, they're available out there so you can,
you can just go out there and get the Elena Dunham fashion line from her 11-Ur-Rae collection.
and she's modeling them in this story that I'm looking at.
And I...
I...
I...
I'll just leave it at that.
All right.
So it is the seventh day of testimony in the trial of Derek Chauvin,
the murder trial in Minneapolis with the death of George Floyd.
The guy that was with him is supposed to testify today.
Maurice Hall, who was with Floyd that day.
And in fact, right now is in jail on other charges.
But he has said that he will not testify and will invoke his Fifth Amendment constitutional right, self-incrimination and not testify as ordered in the fired police officer's trial.
The judge is going to listen to what he has to say without the jury there.
They already gave him an opportunity to not be in his jail scrub.
he'll be in
he'll be in regular clothes
probably you know a nice suit and tie
instead of the you know
jail jump suit
but he
said he's not going to
testify so we'll see what happens
I mean he's already
he's given an interview to the New York Times
he left Minneapolis right after
and he was arrested in Texas
by the way on other
outstanding warrants so he's good guy
and that's really would
throw, I mean, that's why the jury's not going to be there, right?
We don't want to see what information can and cannot be used in court with this guy.
But we'll see what happens.
We'll see what happens today.
Yesterday you had the police chief and there was, you know, testimony.
And look, it doesn't matter.
We already talked about it.
It's a done deal, right?
The officer, former officer, is guilty.
Period.
Period.
Guilty.
This is the way it is.
I know many of you have been emailing me,
and this is a similar email,
an email that I received,
and I get many like this.
Officer Cho's fate was sealed as soon as George Floyd
ingested the drugs.
If he was held in the police car,
he would have died.
Restrained in any manner, he would have died.
Sitting quietly on the curb, he would have died.
I doubt he could have been saved even in an emergency room.
Fentanyl causes respiratory distress,
and then death.
George Floyd was going to die.
If Officer Chauvin had used a less effective hold
that they could have,
they could both be dead due to the difference in size
in the initial revved-up condition of Floyd.
According to this email,
this person believes that they are not a cold,
heartless human being.
This whole thing makes me very sad.
And that was my point in the beginning of all of this,
was that we all agreed.
It was horrific.
Watching some of the trial footage
that they're airing of the death of George Floyd
just is,
It makes me sick.
It makes me sick to my stomach.
And, you know, you can, I know that we're, I know everyone is, has their day in court.
And you're innocent until proven guilty.
I get it.
But this is, we are in a bad place.
And let's, I mean, if he's found, I keep saying it, but I mean, if he has found innocent or not guilty in this case,
it's not going to be pretty.
so let's just hope
and I hate to even say this because this is horrible too
I don't want let's just hope that he's found guilty
and we send them off to prison
for the rest of his life
and he will be in solitary confinement
there's no way I mean you think
Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide
Derek Chauvin will be
committing suicide as well in prison
and it will be you know
suicide
died in quotation marks.
You can count on that.
So his life as he knew it has been over,
and it will never come back ever.
And you know, you make the argument that's the same with George Floyd, right?
So, you know, the only way that it could have been avoided on that day was for George Floyd
not to try to pass counterfeit money off,
which would mean he wouldn't have, you know, broken the law.
But, hey, that's the way it goes.
Speaking of that, that's the way it is,
congratulations to actress, superstar, 48-year-old,
Fand-away Newton.
She is, and you may not know who I'm talking about
because I said her name with the W in it.
I spelled it as I said it.
looking at the spelling of T-H-A-N-D-I-W-E.
And she was long credited over the years as Thandi.
T-H-A-N-D-I-E.
No, no more, okay?
She is taking the W back.
And that was, you know, it's included in her name now.
And that's her name with the W, okay?
It means beloved.
in Shona, the language of Zimbabwe,
where her mom was a princess, or is a princess.
That's my name.
It's always been my name.
I'm taking back what's mine.
So congratulations to Fandy.
Oh, I'm sorry, Thandui.
I said, Thandahui now?
I'm not, I'm not real sure.
I apologize.
I'm not, you know, I don't want to say it wrong without the W.
So it used to be Thandi, T-H-N-T-H-A-N-D-I-E.
now it's T-H-N-D-I-W-E so congratulations good for you happy you're taking the
W back sure it's yours and you need to take it back okay I'm apparently she's in
the position now where you know she can take the W back in her name it was
carelessly missed out
as a one goes back to her first unscreen credit when they when the w in her name was missed out and now
she she's went all this time leaving it out but now she's pissed and she's taking it back she's
reclaiming the w and from now on she said the most thing that she's most grateful for now is that now
being complicit in the objectification of black people as others, which is what happens when
you're the only one. Okay. She said going forward, wherever I position myself now, I don't want to be
part of the problem. I want to be part of the solution. That's good. I'm good for you. I'm not for
higher anymore. Oh, so you're going to quit acting? No, I'm not really. She said, I'm not going to
speak your story or say your words if I don't feel they could have come from me.
Okay.
Isn't that acting?
I just, that's just the question I have, Thandwe.
I just, I was wondering, isn't that acting?
So if you're just speaking words or, you know, speak your speaking stories that
didn't come from you.
That's acting, right?
That's what you do.
I know, I know, I know.
Look, she's having a longer struggle.
She had an eating disorder.
She struggled with that.
She said she almost died from it.
And then, you know, because of therapy
and personal development,
she's, you know, as well as the philosophy of Buddhism
and dance with death no longer rears its head.
head. So she said that if someone has an eating disorder, I wish I could talk to you.
And the questions that I would ask you would range all over your life from the first memory
because you're unique. And the same power that is driving you to hurt yourself, you can change
that to a power to nurture yourself once you find the kernel of truth that has been denied you.
okay well good i mean i i like that but it just struggles she's at the point now
it made a lot of money uh over the years without the w by the way and now that she's had the cash
and she's able to say hey i'm not for hire anymore
she can you know she can take the w back so congratulations to thandway newton uh
You taking your W back.
Let's get that back.
And she has.
And she's taking the W back.
Bastard stealing her W.
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cool to drink right out of this.
So we can right now.
So good.
So good news.
The Major League Baseball has decided where they're going to play the All-Star game.
and good for them.
They chose Denver, Colorado.
Yep, we pulled it out of Atlanta because Atlanta and anything to do with Georgia is bad.
But Denver, Colorado, good.
So good news is that Denver is 80% white and about not even 10% black.
And, you know, Atlanta is, well, over 50% black.
and, you know, 41% white, 40-ish, 41-ish percent white.
So we had to, I mean, in the name of, the name of inclusivity, yes, in the name of
inclusivity, here in the break room, we got to go to Denver, which is 80, almost 81-ish
percent white.
Man, Major League Baseball, you, good job.
Although I thought they would, you know, just cancel it all together.
But no, no, they are going to bring it to Denver, Colorado.
Congratulations.
I hope it works out for you.
South Korean electronics maker LG.
Yeah.
The 12-year-old smartphone business is being powered down.
It's going to be no more.
They're going to focus on more profitable areas like smart home devices and electric vehicle parts.
That's probably a good move right there.
once the world's third largest smartphone maker LG shipped just 23 million phones last year.
Wow.
Because think of this.
Samsung, 256 million phones were shipped last year.
That's quite a difference.
That's where you start thinking about maybe we ought to not make phones anymore.
And they did, and they're not going to.
They thought they could have a profitable year, but do you do?
new. They spent 23
consecutive quarters
of losses. 4.4
a billion dollars.
Ooh, yeah, at some point
you're in the boardroom going
ooh, uh, maybe we ought
to, we ought to stop making
these phones and really were, we're
losing a lot of money.
And I mean,
23 quarters of losing money, sooner or later,
you got to think,
whoof, it's time to
have to give up, right?
Speaking of phones, though, and
Androids, you know, Samsung,
yesterday the Supreme Court ruled
that Google did not violate copyright law
when it used parts of Oracle's Java code
to develop the Android operating system.
Ah, that's pretty, that's a big decision.
A big decision.
It's been a decade.
I mean, they've been fighting over this for a long time.
And, you know, Oracle said Google
committed an egregious act of plagiarism by using 11,500 lines of code from the Java, the Java platform.
Uh, okay. Uh, Google said, you know, it's, they're essentially the building blocks, but that's it.
Oh, and most of it was under the fair use protection. Oh, okay. I have the Supreme Court decided with
them, uh, ultimately six to two. Court said Google's use of code did.
did fall under fair use and that if Oracle had its way,
other developers could be blocked from getting the code they needed to
tech innovation might slow down.
Or they could just pay Oracle, but, you know, whatever.
They also, the court didn't decide whether any APIs
could be protected under copyright law.
Justice Stephen Breyer acknowledged that tech is changing so fast.
It's best not to answer more.
than is necessary.
Oh, okay.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I appreciate it.
That means a lot.
And another, you know, as long as we're, you know, we're in the tech, the tech mode.
Pinterest has reportedly been in talks to acquire the photo app Visco, VSCO.
Wow.
You know, wow, Pinterest is an amazing site.
I don't know if you are on Pinterest or have an account through Pinterest, but you
can and this is a sad sad state of affairs of some of our lives you go to
Pinterest you know it's 45 minutes later you've been scrolling through Pinterest
looking at pictures it's just amazing it's amazing site I don't know how they
I mean I guess they're selling my data right because it's the only way they're making
money off of me it's not like I'm buying things on Pinterest but that's the way it goes
it's kind of why I have ExpressVPN
but hey that's another ad
which it's not for today
so the question is
if an asteroid heads toward Earth
what can we do to stop it
now we've seen the documentaries
we've seen the documentaries
of you know
the way we we
get rid of asteroids
and I mean you know
it's a movie right
and we and I joke
around about documentaries, but it's just a movie.
But they actually are trying to do something about it.
I remember reading about this when they first started talking about it, but it's coming
to fruition now, okay?
They have a plan to punch an asteroid away.
Okay, thanks.
Well, first, you got to know that it's coming, right?
So they have a plan.
The project is known as the double asteroid redirection.
the DART mission.
And it's been developed by NASA and John Hopkins University applied.
John Hopkins University's applied physics laboratory, along with several other NASA centers.
Now, what the technology involved is includes what they call the kinetic impactor,
which should be able to change an asteroid's motion in space.
The spacecraft is going to crash.
straight into an asteroid at the speed of about 6.6 kilometers per second.
Nobody knows how fast that is.
We should force it, which should force it to change the speed of its orbit.
Now, it's only going to change it by a fraction of a percent,
but it is enough to be observed and measured by astronomers with telescopes.
Oh, okay.
So the craft is going to launch in July of this year on the SpaceX.
Falcon 9 rocket.
It's going to travel to its first test in this Dinnimos asteroid system, D-I-D-Y-M-O-S asteroid system.
It's expected that mankind's first battle against an asteroid will take place in September
2022 when the craft arrives to the system.
So now we've got the test coming up.
In September of 2022, we're going to ram, I'm sorry,
our kinetic, what the heck did they call it again?
Their kinetic impactor into this asteroid and see if we can redirect it with our,
under the double asteroid redirection test mission.
Oh, okay.
I would say good luck with that.
And let's hope it works.
A couple things that come to mind on that.
We have to for sure see that it's coming.
We've had some of the asteroids fly by us where they went.
We didn't really know that was common.
We didn't see it.
And, you know, if you remember in the documentary Armageddon,
when asked, the president of the United States asks NASA if why they didn't see this coming.
And the director of the NASA program played by Billy Bob Thornton,
who replies
it's a big ass guy
and they only have
so much of a budget
and begging your pardon sir
it's a big ass guy
so I've you know that was way back
you know long time ago
when that documentary was made
wow how long ago was that movie made
in the 90s late 90s
1998
oh my gosh
so I mean
has the sky hasn't gotten any bigger
has it?
But maybe climate change has made the sky get bigger.
But we do know that, you know, I'm sure that the budget is still the same,
even with, you know, under, if we look at it, under inflation,
and it's still the same big-ass guy.
So we've got to be able to see the asteroids.
And then we've got to be able to launch and get it up there enough to ram into it.
with our kinetic impactor technique.
And we've got to hope that we change the asteroid's motion in space
enough soon enough to where it doesn't hit us.
Okay.
All right.
Good luck.
God bless.
Oh, yeah.
We've got news too.
We've got news in Operation Varsity Blues.
Yeah, baby.
Oh, yeah.
Tonight's episode.
Yeah, tonight's episode.
Operation Farsity Blues,
Mossimo,
released from prison.
Yeah, he got out.
They let him out three weeks early.
He has moved into it,
and then they didn't really let him out.
I mean, he's out of prison,
but he's at a halfway house.
You kidding me?
We couldn't just send him home.
This whole thing is ridiculous.
So, he's at a halfway house.
He's already, you know,
he's got to pay him money,
right, about a huge amount of money already.
He was in the midst of his five-month sentence
at the federal correctional institution in Lampag.
He's been moved to a Long Beach residential re-entry management field office.
Are you kidding me?
That's just ridiculous.
An inmate is allowed to leave the property.
That's the halfway house he was transferred to through sign-out procedures for approved activities,
such as seeking employment, working, counseling, visiting, or recreation purposes.
Well, how about we just say?
sign him out and send him home.
How about that?
Okay?
I know he tried to get out even earlier because they had him in solitary confinement,
that we had COVID restrictions.
And it was just ridiculous how they treated this man for what he did.
Now, I saw, you know, we talked about it a little bit.
He came across as the, as the, as the, uh, the, uh, the, uh, the, uh,
elitist in the, uh, Operation Varsity Blues documentary on Netflix.
he came across a lot more elitist than Lori.
Laurie was, you know, the mom.
But the whole thing is just ridiculous.
Anyway, Massimo is out, and he's at the halfway house.
He's out of prison, and we'll see how the marriage lasts
because there's no telling what will happen between Lori and Massimo
once he gets out of the halfway house during the entire operation of Operation Varsity Blue.
OVB.

hello,
your life is going to get turned around.
That's just the way it happens.

So just come along.
for the chewing the fat ride, will you?
Okay, good.
You know, the CDC, you know them, you love them.
They updated their guidance from the COVID-19 transmission on contaminated surfaces or objects.
Yeah, it's lower than previously estimated.
I mean, we just don't know.
So they're saying, you know, this open water's fine.
You don't need all that disinfectant stuff.
And it doesn't need to be all the time.
Yeah.
Don't worry.
Look, it's less than one in 10,000.
It's possible for people to be infected through contact with contaminated surfaces or objects,
but the risk is genuinely considered to be low.
Oh, okay.
So, you know, follow CDC, state, local guidelines, wear masks, of course, good ventilation.
That would be like outside.
Social distancing.
hand washing and cleaning surfaces, but, you know, you're fine.
Don't worry about it.
Oh, really?
Yeah, look, we thought for sure that it might be able to remain on surfaces for up to three days,
but, you know, the infection rate for those is really low.
So don't worry about it.
It's just hygiene theater.
What?
Yeah, you know all the companies and places that go around wiping everything down?
I mean, you can't even pump gas anymore without having people come out and wipe down the handle,
and that's fine, you know, I get it.
Okay, thank you.
But, you know, I'm pretty sure that I'm outside.
A, I don't need to wear a mask while I'm pumping my gas.
And I'm pretty sure that, you know, washing my hands later in the day or, you know,
my own disinfectant in the car that I now travel with, you know, religiously.
Whenever I touch anything that's not inside my car, I have to wipe my hands,
I thought that was a new law.
And so, but I don't have to worry about it.
It's like one in 10,000.
That's what they think.
Wow.
Okay.
Uh, you know, we'll see.
We'll see if that holds up to be true because everything that they've said changes.
So be ready for that to change as well.
I mean, we're hearing good news.
Are they being, it's being touted as good news for the first time, uh, in years,
2021 store openings are actually outpacing closures, according to core site research.
Even as many retailers struggle to stay afloat during the pandemic, there were still more than
1,000 fewer closures in 2020 than there were in 2019.
Boy, that seems a little strange.
Thanks in part, too, they're saying that that's because of the stimulus measures.
Okay, good.
But we're talking about 80,000 retail stores.
of the 9% of total in the U.S.
close their doors in 2026?
Wow.
And if e-commerce sales continue their upward trend,
uh, hello.
The category that's going to be hit the hardest.
Clothing and accessory retailers are projected to close 21,000 stores by 2026.
45% of office supply stores are expected to close in the next five years.
I guess retailers in the home.
Home improvement, grocery and auto parts sector are supposed to be okay from shuddering.
All right.
Well, we'll see.
We'll see how that works out.
But for sure, there's going to be other places open.
That's for sure.
That's why we're seeing some stores, you know, opening back up, right?
Different people.
You know, we talked about that before, that, yes, all of these places were closed.
We'll close.
Some of it will come back.
We'll see what ends up coming back.
And I know that even in London,
in England,
we're starting to open things up
because people have had enough.
And we had the prime minister,
Boris Johnson, said that
on Monday, April 12th,
I'll be going to the pub myself
and cautiously,
but irreversibly,
raising a pint of beer to my lips.
Okay. Nice.
So they're reopening,
reopening non-essential businesses next week.
So yay!
Good for the United Kingdom.
We'll see how that works out here in the U.S.
because they are fighting tooth and nail
to keep things closed and keep it locked down
because we are in the winter.
Boy, that's not where we're at.
Mr. President and the administration,
you can keep pushing your dark of winter narrative,
but that's not where America is.
at by any shape of the imagination.
And, I mean, we had baseball opening day, and they did everything they could to talk about, you know, the super spreader event and thousands of people were gathering.
We'll see.
We'll see how it goes.
Hey, I had the opportunity to talk to Phala Meckler a little bit earlier today, and I'm going to air it right here.
He is the grand pooh-bah of My Son Hunter movie.com.
and they are, you know, crowdfunding to get this movie made.
It's coming along nicely, but I really wanted to talk to him today since today is, you know, Hunter Biden book day.
And we wanted to, you know, see where we're at in as far as fundraising for the movie, My Son Hunter.
But you can obviously help them out.
I talked about a little bit earlier in the show, My Son Hunter movie.com.
But I wanted to really talk to Phelham today.
I know there was a couple of times where it seemed our connection was a little wonky since he is not here in the DFW area.
He is out in California.
Yes, I know.
Nasty California.
But great to talk to Phelham.
And here is a moment with Phelham MacLean.
Welcome to Chewing the Fat and welcome to Phelham McLear.
I have been looking forward to talking to you.
First, I wanted to get an update on the crowd.
Funding, source funding for my son Huntermovie.com, the making of the movie.
I see that you're at about 20%, which is great, right?
I mean, we've got people that are willing to donate a little money to get this thing made.
I mean, we obviously need more.
But how's it going?
Good to see you.
Thanks for coming on today.
Well, it's very busy.
Yeah, no, we're 20%.
I mean, we're open now, what, two or three weeks, two and a half weeks.
And it's 600, almost 600,000.
So there's thousands of people who've donated to make this happen because people really want the truth about Hunter Biden,
but also they're more concerned with the truth about the Biden family corruption getting out there.
And that's important to them.
And big Hollywood, don't forget, big Hollywood, big tech and big media censored this story.
Actually, they didn't censored.
They suppressed it.
And now people want the truth out there, and that's why they want this movie made.
well it was the reason i'm looking forward to talking to you today because today is a big day in the
in the in the biden family world uh hunter uh his new book beautiful things uh drops today and uh you know
so it's available to everyone and he's uh he said that he would do limited interviews and he did a riveting
a riveting interview on 60 minutes this past weekend which was which was great because i don't know
he doesn't remember anything.
So it's just, I don't remember, I don't recall.
You know, it could have been aliens.
It could have been anybody.
The laptop story, but they've had all this time,
and his answer is, I don't know.
Yeah, it's kind of weird.
He's going to do limited interviews.
This is a confessional memoir.
How can you do limited interviews to a confessional memoir?
The whole idea of a confessional member is you tell everything.
Right.
But you're going to do limited interviews.
Look, I don't.
remember, he doesn't remember if the laptop
says, maybe that's correct. But
he should remember if he wrote an email
saying, cut the big guy in for 10%.
He should be able to
complaining about having to throw money
upstairs to his father.
He should remember if he got an 80,000
ring from a Chinese businessman. He should
remember he got $3 million
from the mayor of Moscow's wife and why
he got the $3 million. Did
any of that go to Joe Biden?
These are things that you don't forget, I suppose.
Well, I mean, look,
He couldn't remember being with the mother of his child.
We couldn't remember.
He didn't recall that.
But we recall, you know, crawling around the carpet, smoking Parmesan cheese.
We recall that.
It was really a strange, strange interview.
I didn't quite understand it.
But I guess we're just promoing the book, right?
Well, actually, I can understand it perfectly.
So he's basically laundering, with the media's help, he's laundering the story.
So in the future, what people say, but he got millions from the Ukrainians and he complained about cutting the big guy in for 10% and his business partner says.
The answer from the media and from Joe Biden, the same thing is this was all talked about in his book.
He gives extensive interviews about it.
It's a non-story.
So they're laundering it.
Right.
They're fake.
Makes sense.
Sure.
I mean, that's a good move on their part, actually.
for the masses.
I know that you've been making,
you've been making some videos around this.
You know, you're sitting around doing nothing.
Hey, let's make some videos.
I loved going to Hunter's House,
which is down the road from you on Venice.
And I saw the question and answer on the streets.
How much was, I love those
because as much as they hurt
with people not having the information in their heads,
how much of that gets edited?
I mean, you know, just between us.
Well, just to explain to people, I went out at the Venice Boardwalk
and interviewed all the tourists.
I mean, there's a lot of tourists from all over America there, actually, and locals.
And I only wanted to speak to Biden voters and asked them how they heard of Hunter.
I mean, I think one of them, two of them had inherited Hunter,
one of them knew there was some kind of Scamination.
The West had never heard of Hunter Biden.
and they thought Hunter Biden was Joe's brother.
They need, oh, Hunter Biden, he must be some family member.
They never heard of them.
This is what your listeners and your viewers have to realize is that, you know,
an MRC to the poll, I think something like 55, 60 percent of Biden voters
have never heard of Hunter Biden, never mind the scandals.
And 17 percent of those voters, according to this poll,
if they were explained the various scandals,
and especially the 10 percent of the big guy,
then they wouldn't have voted for Biden.
This could have knowledge about this could change.
I could have changed the last election.
This is interference in elections, not by Russia, not by China, not by Iran, but by big tech and big media.
Your enemies.
Right, exactly.
And they most definitely have proven to be our enemies in particular within the last year, year and a half.
They've shown their cards.
They put them on the table.
whether we do anything about it
I don't know one of the ways that we can
do something about it obviously is
donating to my son hunter movie.com
and let's get this thing made
so the truth actually is told
correct? Yeah yeah well I mean
I want to tell people it's not a documentary
it's a movie right because
you know documentaries have an audience
but it's a small enough audience not everyone
wants to sit down after a hard day's work
and watch documentary but they will watch
a movie about
you know a kind of Austin powers
farce with a bit of the godfather
thrown in and house of cards as well
you know so this
and you know this is about a guy who claims not to remember
the stripper he slept with yeah and fathered a child with you know
but by the way you may not remember hunter
because you may be a little under the weather but you know your father
had an inauguration right
when his grandchildren was there your father
mentioned his grandchildren from the podium journey
the other there's only one grandkids
grandchild of his not there.
You know, you're terrible
people, really. You know that? You're terrible
people. I mean, that happened, isn't it?
I mean, that child is
going to know, that child is going to see that
inauguration on YouTube for the rest
of his life and know
that his father, the progressive
father, the grandfather, the good
guy, the moral
center now that has
descended upon Washington, St.
Joe of
Amtrak.
I love that.
But really, you know, look, and again, to your point, Hunter said in his interview that his father and the grandfather to his children call them every night and talk to them every day.
Not to this one.
No, no.
I call them every night.
Did he say, where are you?
Oh, I'm in the Ukraine.
Wow.
What are you doing there?
I'm earning $100,000 a month on an oil and gas company, even though I've no knowledge.
of oil and gas. Oh, where are you now? I owe him in China, Ernie,
but you're going to be appointed a part of a billionaire fund. Did your father ever ask you
why you qualify? Did your father ever ask you to kick 10% to him onto you? You must remember
that. And what journalist, by the way, in the right mind would accept the ludicrous proposition?
Well, okay, I don't know the laptop is mine. Well, is this email, does this email sound familiar?
Because the other people CC'd on the email have said it's January.
Right. I mean, I didn't understand that at all with no pushback or at least the pushback could have been edited out.
We've seen how 60 Minutes is good at that, you know, promoting the different things that they believe in or don't believe in.
So, I mean, that's the whole point behind not knowing who Hunter is, right?
It wasn't that they lied.
It was just, we just won't talk about it.
And we won't let the information get out.
And that's just amazing.
And that's what they're, you know, obviously what Hollywood is.
trying to do with the making of this movie, right, is suppress it and just not let it,
not let people know about it.
Yeah.
I spoke to someone the other day about playing an actor, Hollywood actor, playing the role.
And he goes, you know, I'd love to, but I want to work.
I mean, he says, the person who takes the role will be the most famous actor in the world
for a day or two.
And then you'll never work again, you know.
And, you know, I have kids, I need to work.
and this is the atmosphere we're in now
is that Hollywood will not allow
this film to be made. That's why we're crowdfunding
and that's why your viewers and your listeners
have been so good and have stepped up
so well. And
we're going to make this movie. It's going to
be made and it's going to be a cracker.
So how many
with any information, I don't
know that we've gotten new information, but
we have seen different angles of
the same information be reported now
since you've
started the idea and
the writing of this movie.
How many rewrites?
What's added, what's taken,
what's going on?
How are you coming on that?
We're constantly tickering
as new information comes out.
And I want to say one thing.
We're actually spending a lot of our energy
humanizing Hunter Biden,
believe it or not.
You know, not to demonize them.
This is not, nobody wants to watch a movie,
but if you demonize about someone
or you preach about someone.
We're not making a movie about Hunter Biden's flaws
because it's fun,
even though it is somewhat because after a while it becomes not very funny I know someone's
addictions you know uh but I suppose we're making you know so we're trying to make Hunter a human
being and he most definitely is yeah he's had a tough life too right tragedy yeah then his addictions
but what did his father do with his you know with his drug addict son he made him his bag man
you know
I mean
you know
rather than say
some
maybe you shouldn't be
going to the Ukraine
or China
maybe you should be
sitting at home
with your kids
enjoying your family life
you know
having a nice job at home
or you know
working for my campaign
or some fake job
like that
just something to
to make sure
that you're not out there
in temptation world
right
the father says
no no
get out there
I need my 10%
you know
or my 50%
or whatever
be my bag man
get the minute
in
so I can live the life I want.
Pathetic, terrible.
I mean, no question.
And he definitely, as during that time when Hunter was his main bag man,
I mean, he needed someone close to him, Hunter,
that would be able to do that, right?
And not throw anything into the fire,
not any wrenches into the toolbox that would make noise.
And that's what Hunter was there for.
That's correct.
But he was, you know, you talk about making him human.
Look, the guy is like,
Right? I mean, sure, who doesn't want to smoke a little crack with Hunter?
I mean, who among us?
But, I mean, he's definitely a likable guy, but we've talked, and I know that, I know that you know this, and probably, you know, my audience does because I've talked a lot about the Hunter Biden trials and tribulations.
But, I mean, that struggle of I'm not Bo has been, has been with him almost forever, right?
And he just wasn't was never Bo will never be Bo no matter what.
So he just ended up being, as you put it, the bag man.
Yeah.
You know, he was the Prince Harry of that family, you know.
Yes.
You know, and I speak of people who spoke to people who were college with them and all that.
And, you know, he was not Bo.
Bo was the golden child.
Bo did you know wrong.
He always seemed to mess up.
He had these eviction issues from early.
And life was tougher on him.
in many ways because of that.
And, you know, what did Joe Biden do?
How did he respond to that?
He made him as bag, man.
Shame on him.
And how did Joe respond?
How did he behave?
He disowned his hunter's son from the podium, watched by hundreds of millions of people.
It's, you know, Joe, Joe's not a nice guy.
And Joe needs, the truth about Joe needs to be exposed, not because he's not a nice guy,
but because there's a deep stench of corruption.
foreign corruption too, emanating around the Biden family.
And it goes right to the very top.
And we're going to have a lot of fun making this movie.
It's going to be with actors.
It's going to be funny.
It's going to be emotional.
It's going to be sad.
It's going to be happy.
It's going to be ridiculous.
It's going to be Austin Powers meets King Lear.
It's going to be a lot of fun.
And your viewers and listeners know that.
And that's why they've been so responsive and helping get it made.
Well, I personally am really looking forward to it.
So let's get this thing made.
Let's go start tomorrow.
Phelam, let's go, hop to it.
Just go to my sonhuntermovie.com,
my sonhuntermovie.com and donate, obviously, what you can.
Don't hurt yourself unless it's getting close to the bottom line and then we need your help.
But my sonhuntermovie.
Phelan McClure, thank you so much for your time.
Yeah, I just want to say we're, you know, we've almost raised 600,000 now thanks to people, like your listeners and viewers.
Once we hit 700,000, that's when we can start the development process, start hiring actors and things like that, because that's real money.
That allows us the freedom to start.
That's the target.
We need to hit that 700.
So please people, give what you can, and let's get it made.
We'll make that happen today.
MysonHuntermovie.com.
Thanks.
