It's Hunter from Oklahoma. Again, not as drunk as normal, but you're welcome. I noticed you guys have some choice words about my home state, and I'm a little offended. And I am offended because you guys can do better.

This state is a fucking shithole. It is 47th in education and 2nd in incarceration, and I'm literally fucking my sister right now. So I'm going to step it up on Oklahoma, and that would be pretty cool. Gloryhole cocksuckers. Hey, just calling to let you know that you bitches, this is where we're finally right about something. The Italian beef sandwich from Chicago

is the most underrated sandwich ever. Philly cheese sandwich? Bullshit. Glory hole, motherfuckers. Hey guys, this is Ryan from Baltimore. Love the show. Just listening to your last episode in regards to going to Philly, I can't really refute any of the claims you made about the quality of a city that Philly is, with one exception. Cecil,

if you ever make it out there, the Rocky statue is at the base of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. In that museum, they have an amazing, huge collection of medieval arms, armory, weapons, all of it, including this incredibly amazing suit of riveted ring mail, where each link in the ring mail is etched with the name of one of the ancestors of the guy who made it. It's incredible looking. So if you unfortunately have to go to that city, at least go check that out because I think you'd find it cool. So later guys. Hey, Tom and Cecil, this is Dustin in Idaho and I'm a dermatologist and I can confirm that Idaho is the whitest state. Be advised that this show is not for children, the faint of heart, or the easily offended.

The explicit tag is there for a reason. recording live from glory hole studios in chicago this is cognitive dissonance every episode we blast anyone who gets in our way we bring critical thinking skepticism and irreverence to any topic that makes the news makes makes it big, or makes us mad. It's skeptical. It's political. And there is no welcome at. This is episode 415 of Cognitive Dissonance. This is the Hardy episode. Right?

Laurel. I got that mixed up. I didn't know. You messed it up. There's a difference between the two. Or is this a Yanni episode? I don't know. Let's see if we can do a Yanni. What's a Yanni that musician? Yanni was a musician.

Yeah, did he play like, he played like the fucking cello or symphony related orchestras? That's Yo-Yo Ma. Well, they're all the same. I think Yanni's like a sax player or something. Okay, that's clearly Yanni. Alright, so let's go up the scale here.

Alright. We still got Yanni. That's Laurel for me now. All day Laurel. Laurel with nol. Laurel. Laurel. Laurel. Laurel with no chance of yawning. Laurel.

Okay. Yeah. Laurel. So it's all day long. Laurel on that end of the spectrum. It's all day long yawning on the far right. What I loved about this phenomenon this week, Tom, is that it got everybody to realize that our brains are made of garbage.

Like everybody is just like, why does that work like that? And it's like, well, it's because you're made of garbage and all the subsequent parts of you are made out of garbage. It's like this hodgepodge of garbage. See, that's funny because like what it made me realize when I saw that slider that you were just using is that it isn't until you skew far right that it changes the facts. It's true. I guess that's true. Because that recording is a recording of the word Laurel. It is a recording of the word Laurel, but it's a shitty recording.

It's a shitty recording with lots of distortion. And so what happens is some people, my wife in particular, only hears Yanni when that mid-range plays. Now, I'm sure, I haven't had a chance to play this for her.

I'm sure I can get, like, I'm sure she would hear Laurel just like everybody hears Laurel. Well, have you just told her to hear Laurel? I told her last night. And she was like, nope. And I was like, but you're wrong.

And she's like, no, I'm right. It's Yanni. There's a lot of people, though, who hear it. Right. And it's because of the way your ear is you know hearing damage helps this along i think hearing damage makes you hear laurel more is that right yeah so so hayley and i were doing a little bit of reading to try to figure out like part of like why this is the case um it's a shitty recording

like you mentioned so there's all kinds of noise and distortion and garbage mixed up in it. But like, yeah, as we get older and our hearing, um, changes and by changes read here gets worse. Um, we tune out those high frequencies and we, and by tuning them out, we just don't get to fucking hear them anymore.

And like for a guy like me who spent, and I, you too, like spent huge parts of our youth at concerts, listening to fucking crazy loud music. I grew up next to an airport. Yeah. You know, like I have no hope of hearing Yanni until it's fucking right in my ear.

Until they distorted enough for you to hear it. Right. But other folks who might have hearing that predisposes them to higher pitch frequencies, they're going to hear that Yanni. I do agree with your larger point though, right? Like you're joking like we're made out of garbage, right? But like we are untrustworthy machines. And it's it's funny that like, even our senses have biases. Yep. Right. Yep. Even our senses have biases toward like, we feel like I favor just hearing when I

hear when I, we're in the same room hearing the same thing and we walk away with different feelings and impressions and like sometimes different words that have gone through our fucking skulls. That's not nothing to remember about the human experience. When I was a kid, and I want to play this clip here. When I was a kid, there's a song by Front 242 called Never Stop. I was into industrial when I was a kid. I used to love Front 242. I swear to you, when I heard this song when I was a kid, I would hear this guy say Kenosha, which is a city in Wisconsin, which is a city.

Yeah. If you don't know, and there's literally no reason for a human being to say those words, unless you're from Kenosha and hello, Wisconsin. He's saying America. And I remember saying to my friends, I was like,

is he saying Kenosha? And everybody's like, are you fucking crazy? But all I heard was Kenosha. So I want to play my friends, I was like, is he saying Kenosha? And everybody's like, are you fucking crazy? But all I heard was Kenosha. So I want to play a little clip here real quick. That to me was Kenosha. Dude, that's so America. That was Kenosha. I know it's America now. He may as well be saying

bald eagle right now. A hundred times over. There's no way I can even hear Kenosha in that, but when I was a kid, that's all I heard. I couldn't hear America. I was like, what are you guys hearing America? I was like, where does America start? Isn't that fucking frustrating? Because it's like you're looking at people and you're like, I'm not fucking crazy.

But they're like, yeah, you are. And your senses are a fucking unreliable thing because they have to go into your brain. The last one I want to play for you guys is one that Tom and I found on Reddit the right before here. I'm going to play it several times. It can be green needle,

brainstorm, green or brainstorm or brain needle. Right. So those are the four it can be. If you listen to this, I'm going to play it four times. Think of those words in that order. Start with brainstorm,

then green needle, then start with brainstorm then green needle then brain needle then green storm and you can hear it each time differently differently i think it's amazing I need I need I need I need That messes with me, man. That messes with me. That's amazing.

That's amazing. All these auditory It's an auditory illusion. Yeah, it's an auditory illusion. I think they're awesome. They're so cool. And what's great is, is that this week,

there was so many of them that came out because this Yanni Laurel thing was the first thing that everybody, I mean, I woke up in the morning and you know how I learned about this was somebody posted on Facebook, like, yeah, it's Laurel. And I was like, what the fuck?

Like, what are you talking about? And I had to do a search for what, and immediately it comes up. It pops up, yeah. Yeah, it comes up,, it's Laurel. And I was like, what the fuck? Like, what are you talking about? And I had to do a search for what immediately it comes up. Yeah, it comes up, but it's hilarious that it's on America's mind this week. So stories from the Detroit news, uh, feds, Michigan pastor posed as teen to lure girls online, uh, Former Port Huron pastors facing federal prison charges. He enticed girls to engage in sex acts online. Basically went online, pretended to be somebody that he wasn't, and got people

to send pictures and otherwise open themselves up to this guy. Again, he's a... This is a fucking pastor. This is a pastor engaging in this sort of shit. I can't imagine somebody who wants to have conversations like a text conversation with a kid. Like I, at one point he sends a message that says,

I'm really bummed out that we lost power. You are so very, very beautiful and sexy when you be home tomorrow after you home from school. Like he even learned how to write improperly. With like four exclamation points and a bunch of dots and shit. He's a Michigan pastor. So maybe he never learned. It's entirely possible that this is.

I mean, we've spent some time in Michigan. Text speak is. Right. That is. That's the best. Can you imagine his sermons? Go to the card catalog at the library. Under your, it's you are.

You are. God. Yeah. It says FBI agents learned that Jackie Douglas wood burns virtual interactions while probing a chat room based on a based website that attracts adult men who poses use seeking to sexually exploit minor teenage girls and preteen girls gross uh yeah i also doesn't like doesn't this feel like one thing i thought like doesn't this feel insanely like late 90s antiquated right where it's just like i'm gonna go into a chat room it's like all right old man

enjoy your time in your chat room on my bulletin board oh hold on a minute let me navigate over to geocities and see what's going on gonna make your site on compu serve are you fucking kidding me does your modem still go what you know would be you know the thing that also occurred to me would be really funny is like, this guy's going on posing as a preteen boy. And on the other side, there's like some investigator posing as a preteen girl. And like, it's like, there's like no actual young people. And I, I actually wouldn't even be surprised at all if that's the case in a lot of these

things, right? Cause I was like, yeah, it wouldn't make him less guilty. Right. And it would still be a good way to find creeps. It just, you're just finding creeps that weren't successful in creeping, right? And if everybody knows it, clearly it says they're probing a chatroom-based

website that attracts adult men who pose as youths. Right. Like, clearly people know that there's like these 60 plus, what was he, 69 or 68-year-old guy or something like that? I kind of hope he's 69 just for posterity. 63? Damn it. 63-year-old guy or something like that? I kind of hope he's 69 just for posterity. 63?

Damn it. 63-year-old guy who's there trolling for... I mean, if he knows about it, every investigator knows about it, right? Oh, absolutely. Right. And he doesn't even cover up his IP. That's how they find him, his IP address and internet provider. Like, what is this internet you have?

Can they find me on the internet? I used an incognito browser. That makes me invisible because there's sunglasses on the icon guy. And that means I can do whatever I want. You can wank all you like. I Googled deep web. It's as easy as 70,000 Skype chat messages

and others. And I'm like, Oh my God. Like that sounds like the prison sense to me. That's too much work to jerk off. 70,000 on Skype. Oh gosh. We find out that a lot of these religious people are just so fucking closeted.

Creepy. Yeah. All the time. What do you think it is about the religion that lures them to that? Is it because you think they like the power that it gives them with the, you know, when they're pastors? I think there's a couple of things.

I think, I think there's probably the case that there are some people who are creeps, right. That are drawn to positions of social power. Yeah. Like being a pastor, like being, you know,

because like whether they recognize it consciously or not, they've got to see the opportunity. Yeah. Like being a pastor, like being, you know, because like whether they recognize it consciously or not, they've got to see the opportunity. Sure. Sure. Right? Like it's, it's fucking the land of opportunity. If you're a creep.

So many people don't want to want to talk about it. Right. Hide it under the, under the, but also like people are going to trust you. They're going to come to you as a confidant. They're going to give you all kinds of social and emotional power over them and their families. Plenty of free time with kids if emotional power over them and their families. You'll have plenty of

free time with kids if you want it. Right. You know, but even if it's not kids, even if these creeps, because a lot of these, whatever your flavor of awful and creepdom is, I think that there is something in these jobs that is attractive. You know, consciously or subconsciously,

I don't know. I think it's attractive. And I also think, like, like the religion itself with its crazy fucking hang-ups around sex and sexuality yeah like i don't think it can create an environment that is going to build healthy ideas around sex and sexuality no matter what you do it's not healthy it's it all this like weird prescriptions about where you can put your dick and like what angle it goes in at and like all the rest of this nonsense that they've got. Like you're, you have no hope of thinking about sex and feeling about sex and coming of age around sex in like a really healthy way. Yeah. So you're like, I think it like builds creeps and then it hides creeps. It does both.

Our son Shlomo is working on a kibbutz in Haifa. We're schlepping him some kreplach. They're Jewish, all right. All right. This story's from the New York Post. These taxpayer-funded Jewish schools are dooming young men to poverty. So this is a story about, you know, the ultra-Orthodox communities in Jewish neighborhoods that because they control the entire neighborhood,

they effectively control most of the they control the entire neighborhood, they effectively control most of the civic resources within that neighborhood, including the schools. And so these kids, they fund the schools, they're on the boards for these schools, they are in control of every aspect of those kids' lives start to finish. And when I was reading this story, one thing that occurred to me is like, for most people in a religious setting, in most communities, you're going to go to school, you're going to be exposed to other people, other ideas. It is, if you are not hardcore, whatever it is your parents are, it is very likely going to be a place where you can get some respite from that bullshit. Sure. Right? Yeah. But in these ultra-Orthodox Jewish communities,

they control everything, stem to stern. They're fucking vertically integrated communities, top to bottom. So, like, these kids, they go to these schools and they are indoctrinated still. They live in these enclaves, these bubbles of non-reality. And they are not prepared for the world around them. Not at all.

Like, they are not well-educated coming out of these. They are doomed to a life of, and I think it's intentional, of you still live here. The only way that you will not just completely descend into poverty and chaos is to stay in our little enclave. Because as soon as you walk away from it,

you're a fucking Amish kid on Rumspringa. What's crazy is they talk in our little enclave. Because as soon as you walk away from it, you're a fucking Amish kid on rumspringa. What's crazy is they talk in this article about a couple of different kids that grew up in this lifestyle, and their parents were both very successful. One of them was a doctor, went to Harvard. Really successful guy. And he takes him to this tiny little

Jewish Orthodox neighborhood, and they grow up not even knowing about science. And he was, he's lamenting. He's like, well, what the fuck? Like I can't, I didn't even know how to do times tables until I was 23 because they didn't teach that. They taught basically what's in the Torah, like what's in the Talmud, what's in the Torah. You learn about all the stuff that, you know, that the Jewish faith thinks is important, but none of the stuff and anything that's counterdicts it, that doesn't get taught. And so they're stuck in these, like you said, like total, um, they're basically these, these like little faith, faith schools that they have to go to yeshivas. They call them, I guess,

is that what they call them? Yeshivas where they have to go to thesehivas they call them i guess is that what they call them yeshivas where they have to go to these to these schools and they just spend their entire life there learning about the only the only things that they think are important and it doesn't have anything to do with the outside world they get stuck there well all they want to train kids to do they want to train the boys to grow up to be rabbi yeah it says roughly five percent of them succeed the other 95 percent are doomed to a life of struggle and poverty. So 95% of it. And it said that in the ultra-Orthodox communities are disproportionately dependent on government handouts. According to a recent 24-7 Wall Street report, the Hasidic village of New Square in Rockland County is the poorest in the state with a 70% poverty rate. That's fucking crazy.

in the state with a 70% poverty rate. That's fucking crazy. And it's because they, you know, we talk about how bad some inner city schools are where kids don't get a chance to learn there. And, you know,

we talk about how bad it is in some ways to, you know, have your property taxes fund those schools because, you know, basically, you know, it allows, you know,

perpetual cycle of, you know, the richest schools are where the richest homes are, and that's where the best teachers are, and that's where the most funding is, and that's where the smartest kids are because they get all the attention that they ever want. And the poor neighborhoods don't get any of that. They get teachers who have to beg, borrow, and steal to get pencils in their class. And so you have this disparity. to beg, borrow, and steal to get pencils in their class. And so you have this disparity.

And what you have here is, in a crazy way, sort of this forced disparity. It's like they probably could easily teach and have the resources to teach at a very high level, and they just don't. Yeah, and I think that that's an important point because they don't do it because this creates a cycle of dependency. Right.

So this is what I would build if I were in their shoes. Right. Like if I wanted to make sure that young people didn't leave my crazy isolationist community. This is a cult. Yeah. Like this is all the earmarks and hallmarks of a cult. Right. You create a dependency on the larger community and culture that you cannot break out of. You lack the resources emotionally and intellectually and otherwise to move into the larger world.

And so you're stuck. Yep. These kids are just fucking stuck. Yeah. It said in April, a senator, a Democrat from Brooklyn, refused to sign off on a state budget unless yeshivas, which accept millions of dollars in government funding were given more autonomy over curricula. That's insane. Isn't that crazy that somebody like,

you know, more autonomous saying that they need to shelter people even more. Right. Yeah. We want to make sure that, you know, you would think that this would, you'd run into a separation of church and state issue.

Yeah. At a certain point, especially, I mean, it's crazy that they're getting millions of dollars in government funding anyway, let alone they're now dictating how they want to use them. It makes you wonder, though, like who has standing to make that claim? Yeah. You know, if you have a separation of church and state problem, which is like, did you

see the documentary about the Rajneesh? It's kind of a wild, wild country. I have not seen it yet. Everybody's saying it's amazing. So it's really good. Well, I watched three quarters of it, then I got bored. As soon as the Rajneesh started behaving badly, I was like, man, I don't care

about you and what happens next. But in the beginning, the first two-thirds, three-quarters of the story is really fascinating and interesting. And they run into a similar issue, right? So they, and I'll make this brief, but they tried to create a community that is isolated from the rest of you know the rest of the world it's their own community and they will have their own schools their own police department and their own fire department and all of this and they're taking care of themselves and they're very self-sufficient in

that regard and it kind of spooks the locals and the locals go after them and one of the ways they go after them is they say, this violates your, you're creating a town, a town charter and a government violates separation of church and state because the entire town is basically a church. Yeah. How is that different than the ultra Orthodox neighborhoods in New York

that are completely run top to bottom? Sure. It's the same fucking thing. Yeah. It's just like, let's be honest. We're more comfortable with this because it's a bunch of white Jewish people and we've all decided that that's an okay religion. That's fine. That's one of the ones that we aren't freaked out by.

You wouldn't let Muslims do this. Absolutely right. You wouldn't let anybody with brown skin do this. Yeah. Let's just call it like anybody with brown skin no. Anybody on a fringe. Would you let a Mormon do this? You's just let's just call it like anybody with brown skin no anybody on a fringe i don't know would you let a mormon do this you would freak out if it was a sikh yeah you know what i mean that's what i mean yeah absolutely yeah hindus they wouldn't let you do this because we're kind of afraid of them even though they're peaceful like the jains we wouldn't let do this

we wouldn't let lots of people with brown skin do this because we just aren't smart enough to differentiate amongst the religions of the brown folks right right? We're all scared of all them. It's just easier to be afraid of anyone that gets a good tan. So it's just, it's just, it's just jealousy. Right. Italians, the Greeks, like whatever. Is there anybody that can go to a tanning booth? Yeah. This whole idea that the environment is everything. They worship the environment and they, it's a power base. And we're talking about millions and millions of money being spent in the political arena. Wayne Allen Root blames deaths in Tesla crash on environmentalism. This is from his show, The War Report, War Talk or something. I don't know.

I test drove a Tesla and I didn't want it and I didn't buy it. Well, today's a big story in the news. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating. A Tesla crashes into a wall in Florida and kills two Florida high school seniors. Two great looking young men. I'm just saying that's a waste. That's a waste of hot man flesh. I'd even get to suck their dicks before that Tesla crashed into him.

In other news, all cars sometimes crash. No kidding. Right. Right. Life in front of them. My God. Handsome, young,

smart, young men. Probably hot, oiled bodies twice. Like handsome, young, smart, young,

good looking, handsome, young, handsome, young, oiled beef magnets. Did I accentuate the young yet? Did I say that?

Let me say it twice. Dating beautiful girls headed to college. He is imagining their whole romantic life. Jesus. Probably, probably may. I mean, it's like 2018 is probably putting it in her butt a little bit.

Uncle Wade. I don't want to tell you about my date. If it's good, probably from rich families, you don drive a tesla at the age 18 unless you have a rich mommy and daddy so these guys had everything in the world to live for and they're dead their car exploded on impact and they burned to death in the tesla i don't trust teslas i don't trust electric batteries what kind of batteries does he trust if not electric i don't know tom is he saying lithium? He doesn't trust lithium-ion batteries?

I think he doesn't trust electric-powered things. Okay. And that makes me laugh as he records this and broadcasts it on the internet. Probably as he holds that cell phone with a battery in it on his hand. Why would he not trust

a Tesla? I will say this. Cars crash and people die in car crashes. It's not even anything worth saying. I will say this, that those batteries do explode violently. They are, lithium ion batteries do explode. Oh yeah, Li-ion. Yeah, very violently.

I watched a Nova on batteries and they showed like different batteries and stuff. And one, there's a guy who just created a battery that runs like a little differently than other batteries, especially lithium ion batteries. And it has like the same, basically same power structure, but you can cut it and it still runs.

Oh, that's awesome. Cut it. And it's more stable. Yeah. It's way more stable. Oh, that's awesome.

And it's run and he's got it to run off of, you know, he's got a bunch of these. So I'm thinking they're going to probably start changing the way in which we make these bags. Because you watch any video on the internet of one of those fucking things, and everybody carries them, right? Everybody carries them in their pocket. Every now and again, they go bad. And violently explode.

Like they are very, they're explosive. I mean, you puncture one of these things and they blow up. Yeah. So, yeah. But turns out if you do that to a gas tank. That's what I was going to say. Is that the alternative is to fill your car with gasoline. Flammable liquid.

You know, like. And scoot around with flammable liquid in there. Sometimes those catch on fire. It's just like, there's no way to get the energy in the car to make it go forward unless you put the energy in the car. And the energy almost always has a way in which to go boom. relatively easy from a thing that isn't energy into a thing which releases a lot of energy. Exactly. Whether it be fossil fuels in the form of gasoline or whatever, whether it's a fucking battery, whatever it is, like, the

fucking quality that we appreciate most about these fuels is that, follow me here, they're fuel. Sometimes they're fuel for fire. Because it's the most common use of fuel. The fuck? And I don't think we need electric batteries.

It's all nonsense. What kind of battery would you use if not an electric battery? We need electric batteries. What would it produce? Our world runs on electricity, you fool. There's no battery that's not electric. What would it produce? Ham?

Like it's just a ham battery It's got slices of bread keep coming out What would it produce? It's a perpetual bread machine Oh I got this battery Oh okay It's a double A battery And out of it comes cum

I'm like what the fuck? A perpetual bread machine just has that little thing in the bottom The bread machine just keeps spinning and spinning I want to need something so bad. Jesus, this dough's been spinning for days. It's like glue. It's the toughest muffin you've ever been into. You lose it too.

It's like, if you can get it down, it's actually a negative calorie muffin. The same reason I saw the study the other day. I don't know if I reported it on this show, but I did on my national radio show. And I mentioned that there was a study out, brand new study. And it said people who believe in, who don't believe, who are skeptics of climate change, which is me, actually are much better for the environment than people who are radical pro climate change believers. That doesn't make any sense to me at all.

That cannot possibly be true. Yeah. Like somebody who votes, just, just think about the voting. Don't even think about the things you do as a person, except for what you vote for. When you vote for the people that dismantle the EPA, right.

You're never selling me. Yeah. Never. Never. Are you going to sell me that that guy who dismantled the EPA is doing more to protect the environment than, oh, and hear me to the finish line, the EPA. You know, it's funny when you mentioned voting, I started thinking of single issue voters. And the first thing I thought in my head is like, that's like reading a study and be like, you know, the people who all go out and march against abortion, they have more abortions than anybody. It's like, no, they're not. Not convinced.

I mean, I'm not convinced that they don't have any abortions. I'm not convinced that they don't even have less. Like, they probably have them at the same rate because all that shit sounds great when it's not you. When it's not you. Right, right, right. Yeah. But it's like, but that, but like, they make up 90% of the aborting. You know what I mean?

No, no, no. That's true. Yeah. They're the ones who create pollution. They're the ones who ruin the environment. They're so busy being nanny state control freaks. How could it ruin the environment if you don't believe these things ruin the environment?

Right? Yeah, right. You already said, I don't believe in it. I can't circle this. And like you said, nanny state, like when you start ripping off stuff, you'd be like, you know what? We don't need clean water. Yeah. Remember when we

didn't have the Clean Air Act and in LA you couldn't see LA and now you can see LA. Did you see this week that there's a source of one of those banned chemicals in the world? So one of the chemicals that ruins our ozone later, it's like a

banned chemical that basically like I think the Montreal accords or something, something like a while ago said, don't do this anymore. And the whole world was like, yep. Cool story. We're not going to do that. Like, I guess like there's been just like this wild release of that recently. No. Trichloro...

CFC11. Yeah. Trichloro-fluoromethane. Good job. I guess. I don't know. But it's CFC11. But it's not declining as quickly as it should be. And they suspect that someone over Asia is releasing it.

It appears that the emissions of CFC11 have increased in recent years, which is quite a surprise given the fact that the production has been phased out. Wow. So, yeah. That's good news. I think, probably climate change. I actually think Wayne Allen Root uses it for his hairspray. Trying to get government to control

our lives and make us live worse lives, lower quality lives. They themselves don't listen to the rules. I strongly suspect nobody lives a lower quality life than Wade Allen Root. Because every morning that guy wakes up and he's Wade Allen Root. What do you think the lower quality life is if you're environmental? Like what is the lower quality that I can't just take a jet by myself or something? No, I can answer that.

I think like he would say that our cars cost more because they have emissions control standards. So it's less money in our pocket to do other things. Our gas probably costs more because it's full of additives that reduce emissions. Don't have lead in it or whatever. No, but that's true. I think that's the heart of his suggestions

is that we are paying more for everyday items because there are carbon controls and other environmental factors which play into that. That's money we spend. We don't have to. So that's money in our pocket. We can't give to strippers.

I don't really know. I'm not sure. That I can't buy hairspray with. And spray into a hard dome helmet. Release an entire can of hairspray every morning. It's my wake up ritual. I have my coffee. I release it into the atmosphere,

an entire can of hairspray. And then I break the Freon can open. Open. Every day. Every day. I actually pour a can of Freon out for my homies. I just take one refrigerator and push it over my balcony every morning.

I go through more refrigerators that way. It's important that your hair be bulletproof. Like it's like it really should be an armor that you wear like a second skull. No, I'm saying he just releases an entire can into the universe and then goes back and sprays his hair. Yeah.

We the people are skeptics of climate change. Treat the environment better. You're deniers. You're not skeptics. There's a difference. A denier looks at science and says, nah, I'll pass. That's a denier. You're not skeptics. There's a difference. A denier looks at science and says, I'll pass. That's a denier. That's what you are. It's a very big

difference between you and a skeptic. In fact, never use that word again, Wayne. Someone should take that word. The nanny state should take that word away. We should tax that word out of them. We should take that word away. You're not allowed to use that word anymore. That's our word. That's like the N word. That's the S word. You don't get that word. That's our word. That's like the N word. That's like the S word.

You don't get that word. That's our word. We get to use that word. And I don't want an electric car. I have no interest in an electric car. And those kids are dead. He's reading off his iPhone. The reason they might be dead is because they fell for that crap. That's the... The other reason might be that they crashed their car into something. Like, maybe

the responsibility... You know, I love that these guys, like, they love nothing more than personal responsibility. Absolutely. They scream it all day, all night. You crashed your car into a wall. Yeah.

The wall didn't jump out and bite you. Well, and you know how fast those Teslas are, right? Right. And the reason why is because they have no, like, the acceleration on a... They get instant torque.

Instant torque instead of... The acceleration on a- They get instant torque. Instant torque. Instead of the acceleration on a gas car takes a lot longer to start moving than an electric one. It's immediate. And like, that's a dangerous car if you don't know how to drive it. Oh, you know, it's funny because I just watched, it's funny you mentioned, I just watched a Top Gear clip the other day of a supercar, like the world's first electric supercar. And they put it up against its V8 gas cousin. They drag race. Yeah. The supercar, the electric version weighed a thousand more pounds than the other car and had like one or two less horsepower and it beat the other car. Yeah. It beat the other car in a drag race. It's just so fast.

Yeah. To get two 18 year old kids in a car like that, like you were saying. Yeah. You play two 18 year old kids though in my car. Yeah.

It could be any car. That's what we talked about. Yeah. It can be any car. I had a kid. I'm sure you had kids in your school that died. Yeah.

I had kids in my school that crashed in cars and every year they put out in the prom. They put out the broken car on our lawn every year for prom. I the prom, they put out the broken car on our lawn every year for prom. I'm sure that's a

national thing that happens. Every year there was a, or it was either homecoming or prom or it was both where the fire department brought over this old wreck that showed like

that we had to cut some kids out of there and their heads were gone or whatever. And they got that story. It's like, and then one day I had to come up

on an accident scene and they come in and they do a talk in your fucking assembly and tell you don't drink and drive and don't be an asshole and don't drive like a schmuck. You know, when you're a kid, that happened. I had so many people drive like assholes. I told a story on the air once about me jumping into a fucking pond. You know, like when you're a kid, you just drive like an asshole. And I want to point out the most important thing is that the autopilot wasn't on. Tesla's reported back the autopilot. It's not like

the thing was just like, fuck, I am robot and ran into a fucking wall. Fuck these kids. Life's not worth living. You spoiled shit. The kids just like drove the car bad and broke it. And crashed it. Yeah. And that's like, that's a thing like we were saying, like, that's just a thing 18-year-old boys do. Absolutely.

Like when I was an 18-year-old boy, my best friend had a truck, he had a Chevy blazer and we used to play a game. Do you remember 88th Avenue? It was a, it was a stretch of road that was perfectly straight. That stretched between two other roads. It doesn't matter.

It was, it was the middle of the age, right? And it was maybe a mile and a half, two miles long, right in the middle of a cornfield. And it was just, it was just arrow straight.

Sure. Arrow straight. And the game, me and my best friend used to play, and I was 17, he was 18, is he would stomp the accelerator, turn off the lights, and close his eyes. And we'd see who had the balls, because if I was like, okay, okay, okay,

he would open his eyes and turn the lights on. And he would stomp the accelerator in this fucking Chevy Blazer. So you'd be going 100 miles an hour or something. Without even looking where we were going. What happened a number of times is he'd open his eyes and he would not have time to stop before

crossing the other road. And so we'd race over that road. Thank God we didn't hit anything and nobody hit us. We'd jump this curb and drive into a cemetery at 100 miles an hour and just try not to die. We did this a lot.

We did this more times than I have fingers and toes. We were fucking idiots. There's a place called High Road in Romeoville, Lamont area. It runs through, maybe it's Lockport. I don't know. It's one of those cities over there. It was a back road and I remember my brother

when I was a kid used to go down there and it had one of those hills that feels like you're dropping yeah yeah it's one of those hills that you jump yeah and then the car falls at turn on velocity you know what I mean like whatever that effect is it's basically puts the belly in your throat

it feels like you're on a roller coaster and my brother used to go 80 miles an hour down that thing all the time. And I remember being in the car and like you'd hit your head. Yeah. Because you didn't, back then, there was no seatbelt law for the back seat.

So you'd hit your head and bounce around. You'd be like, oh. I know. And I watched videos of people that watched a video recently. I want to say it was on Reddit or something. Somebody like was jumping and they were, there was, it's a big, long slope of a hill.

So they jump and then they slide down this hill and they actually drift. You could see them. They're not touching the ground. They're just drifting down this hill and the car starts to turn a little and then it catches and it goes forward. And everybody commenting was just like, yeah, I did so much stupid shit when I was a kid. I would, as a 25 or 30 year old, I would never consider doing it. But as a young 18 year old,

your brain just isn't like ready for like living yet. Your brain is not ready to be in charge of a car. Your brain is not ready to be in charge. That's exactly it. And that's what it, look, and I blame it on the kids. Maybe it was an accident. I'm sure I have no idea,

but it's not the, what I want to say for sure is. It's not batteries fault. It's not fucking Danger Will Robinson Now we're going into a wall This story is from the New York Times Indonesia church bombings carried out by family with children in tow. You know, the family had slays together.

Well, they knew it was the kids because they found the toes. So that's the only... They're like, oh, it's a sweet little toe-headed boy. Oh, no, it's not toe-headed. It's just a toe embedded in the kid's head. The mom's like, don't forget your lunch nail bomb lunch box.

You gotta take that school. And no texting unless it's your sister to blow her up. No texting. Mom, I had pressure cookers for breakfast. He just walked into school. Nuclear bomb on your back. This thing is heavy. Go to school! Everybody calls me fat

boy. Who's fat now? Isn't this insane? This is clearly, when you look at this and you see that a family did this, you cannot

look to anything but religion. Nothing else could inspire a family did this, you cannot look to anything but religion. Nothing else could inspire a family to kill themselves in multiple steps. Yeah, right. It's like, the crazy, this thing is crazy. It's not like they all showed up and were like, they didn't Toy Story 3 this thing. They weren't all joining hands going into the furnace.

It's like a sad Woody. Most of my Wood's are sad. Oh God. But like, it like there's a suicide bomber. There's like, like two on motorcycles, like like an eight year old kid,

like behind a circus act for Christ. I know it's like the aristocrats. It's just like, okay. So two motorcycles walk into a bar they're bombs hear me out hear me out no i'm done that's it it's fucking crazy like one of the little kids lives like there's an eight-year-old girl i think that lives through all this sure horror i don't know what that word means to live after your family has blown themselves up and tried to

murder you. Because I do want to be clear. The kids that are involved, they're not suicide bombers. Absolutely not. They're murdered by their parents. They're murdered. And they're murdered by an ideology. Absolutely.

And they probably did not know anything that was going on because I think that would be a hard sell. Yeah, I've got kids in my house that are 4, 7, 11, and 11. I can't get most of them to eat a broccoli. I can't get most of them to eat

a food that isn't covered in sugar. Yeah, what they did was they put a fucking bomb on their back and then they put a fucking stick with a Happy Meal on it. But seriously, they had to coax them in some way. They're not like, okay, so now we're going to kill ourselves for Allah. I have a feeling like that's a hard sell for anybody.

Right. But what is possible is that they could have been indoctrinated into a hardline worldview. Absolutely possible. For the entirety of their being. Yeah. Islamic State, of course, took credit for this thing. Yeah. And they described this as another martyrdom operation, right?

And that's the problem with this concept, right? There are like that idea of being a martyr. Martyrdom only works if I get to, in some way, see, take advantage of, engage in the fruits of my labors. So as an atheist, I can never be a martyr, right? There are almost no causes that I would give up my own life for because the cause, if I'm dead, I don't get to find out if the cause even succeeded. Sure. The goal of the cause, I'm no longer a part of.

There is a selfish part of me that's like, well, I like, I'd like to see that through another way, please. Dying for something doesn't make sense unless you think that you then get to go watch it on TV later in heaven, right? So there is a part of this whole concept of an afterlife, of martyrdom,

of rewards and punishments, that whole thing. It's all that can feed this kind of behavior. This behavior can't exist without it. Absolutely. And I would argue that you would have to be, you know, if you're going to be a martyr, I think you've got to make that conscious choice too.

And it feels like, you know, a kid, this kid isn't a martyr. This kid was murdered. There's a difference, right? There's a huge difference between that. And to sing this, you know, the kid's praises and be like, oh, he's a martyr. No, you're a fucking asshole who taught him some garbage, taught his parents some garbage. And they either kill them or they taught the same garbage to this kid. And the kid wound up dying, too. Also, Family Fun Night just got fucked up.

Family Game Night gets it. I will tell this. It's contentious. Playing Monopoly, people get mad. You know what I will tell this. It's contentious. Playing Monopoly, people get mad. You know what I mean? You might blow up the house. This is what happens when you play Exploding Kittens and take it too seriously. It's just a game, guys. Absolutely.

Wow. You know what Grammy Hall would call a real Jew. Thank you. Yeah, well, she hates Jews. She thinks that they just make money. But let me tell you, I mean, she's the one. Is she ever? I'm telling you.

Jesus Christ. I don't even know, man. What the fuck? I don't even know. What the fuck? Again, we're living in a fucking bizarro universe. Fucking bizarro universe from New York times. Robert Jeffress pastor who said Jews are going to hell led prayer at Jerusalem embassy.

Yeah. I just like, I can't even with this shit right now. First of all, there's a fucking embassy in Jerusalem. Right. Hey, that's gone real well. Yeah. I guess I sort of feel like everybody saw

this coming. Nobody sort of on the left or even many people in the center and some people on the right knew that moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem, that when that moment came, that was not going to go over well.

No, I don't think anybody didn't think that there was going to be some pushback. I think that everybody understood there was going to be pushback. And I think that there was a lot, in a lot of ways, I think some of the Christians really craved that pushback because that pushback is the thing that... They need it for their apocalypse, right? They need that for their end times. They need that pushback and that unrest for their end times.

So that has to happen. So I understand and I get that. I recognize that. I recognize that. I just don't know. Like, what I don't want to do is say that, you know, this is the only thing because that state has been fucked up and crazy for a long time. Like that fucking relationship between Palestine and Israel has been fucking shitty and garbage. 70 years. Forever. Yeah.

Right. So, you know, like, like, and this, and this is not the first time that there's been bloodshed there. This is not the first time people die. There's bloodshed all the time. People blow themselves up. And there's also, you know, people getting shot when they're protesting, you know, they, and they do this to a bunch of, you know, a bunch of people all the time. What, what's crazy is this guy is the guy who gives this

speech, and he's just fucking super racist all the time. He's giving the speech there, and he's like, one of his quotes, quote, you can't be saved being a Jew. That sounds bad, but what about if you said that in Jerusalem?

His other quote is, sound better? His other quote is... Would that sound better? His other quote is, Islam is wrong. It's heresy from the pit of hell. And then he said, Mormonism is wrong. It's heresy from the pit of hell. He added,

Judaism, you can't be saved being a Jew. You know who said that, by the way? The three greatest Jews in the New Testament. Gotta love them Jews. And Jesus Christ. Wait, maybe not. Were they all saved?

I wonder. That's crazy. I thought it was Peter, Paul, and Mary. I thought. I got that. No, Jesus Christ is the backup singer. Very different. Maybe it's just hair when he got on stage.

He has that tambourine. It's in the toga. The thing about the tambourine, the best part about the tambourine is his hand, because it's got the hole in it, makes a nice sound. It's a nice sound. Very unique. Absolutely. He can actually put an elastic band in there and bang

it around like one of those balls. You know the paddle ball? He can hit the tambourine that way. See, and that's good because he usually just he's an expert at balling the cup. Yeah. Like he's a fucking world champion. It's a hole-in-one every time. He just puts a silo cup in Yeah. Like he's, I mean, he's like a fucking world champion. It's a hole in one every time. He just puts a silo cup in that thing.

It's more holes in one than Kim Jong-un. That's impossible. 18 consecutive holes in one is pretty good. I thought he hit a hole. I thought he covered two holes in one. That's what we should say. That's what we should say is that it hits the cup and then it bounced out of that cup and flew into the other one. Well, the feet are two holes.

Because a hole in one, people can do that, Kim. Yeah. Okay. Or Oon or whatever you go by. Jong. Jong. Whatever it is you go by, fat man. Here's the thing.

Just say like you dunked from the half court line. Let's make up some shit, dude. It would be great if it was one stroke. 18 holes in one. He skipped it. It's like a Rube Goldberg that kicks a fucking squirrel that carries it to the next

hole. Whatever it is. But he gets it all. This guy though, constantly, this is, you know, throughout this entire article, it's just him just being anti-Semitic. And then they sent him to give the fucking speech.

What are they? It's seriously, it's like, it's like, no, it's like they vet him for the worst possible person. It's like, I'm watching.

They should have sent David Duke. They should have sent Trump. Yeah. Richard Spencer. Whoever. They should have fucking dug up Hitler's corpse. Marionette. His bones are too.

Welcome to the embassy. See Kyle. The point is, is that we've got to rewrite the federal government. Now, this is not going to happen overnight. It took 130 years to bring us to where we are today. It could probably take 50 years to turn it around. But if we stand on the Constitution, then everything else comes together. This is that South African guy.

So this story is from Right Wing Watch. Rodney Howard Brown. It would be just great to see government. Just really? It would be just great to see government leaders and SCOTUS justices executed for treason via firing squad. All right. He's on another show here. It's not his show.

He's on a different show. He's on a network. Christian Television Network's The Good Life program. And he's visiting with them with his brand new book, evidently. A book called The Killing of Uncle Sam, The Demise of the United States. I just want to point out, this man has preyed on Donald Trump. He has

laid his hands, this man, and we're going to hear, has laid his hands on our sitting president and preyed over him. And he was not paid $130,000. That is... Maybe. Maybe. We don't know. Let's ask Michael Cohen. Based on this book, there should be military tribunals taking place right now, That is... Maybe. Yeah. Maybe. We don't know. Maybe. We don't know. Maybe. Let's ask Michael Cohen. Maybe it's hushed up.

Based on this book, there should be military tribunals taking place right now, and people should be arrested for high treason that's been committed at the highest levels of government, even all the way to the Supreme Court. Well, isn't there going to be?

Can that guy get older? He's just like looking around like, my grandson promised me a tribunal. The answer is no, he can't get any older. He's probably dead as we say. That is the maximum age of a human being. You have to be this old to live this life. He's so old, though.

If you were dead, you'd be you by now. I love that he's just like, well, won't they happen soon or no? What's happening? I can't wait very long. Can I have my jello? The nurse said there'd be jello. Would you chew my Salisbury steaks for me and just dribble it in my mouth?

It's like a bird. He's got his mouth up over. Tribunals. Well, you know, that would be the ultimate. We do know that one of the Lord's prophets

have already said and he is standing by his word that the Lord showed him there are going to be tribunals. Well, personally, I think a firing squad

would just be great. Oh, yeah. We love a good firing squad. What? Oh, no, Cecil. You got to have a good firing. No. Why are you getting all upset?

Wait, what? A good fire. Good old-fashioned firing squad. What? Like you do. Remember the last firing squadding we did? No. No.

Yeah, I don't think anybody does. I think it was a traitor in like the 40s. I don't think anybody remembers that anymore. Although probably not actually. I think that they were still using firing squads to kill people up until they changed it to like 100% hanging and electricity or something. They were still hanging people for a while too. I think firing squad is still an option in one state. Oh, wow. Would you go firing squad?

I would go firing squad. Would you? I don't know. If you're going to fucking kill me, I want you to have to kill me. I don't want you to put a fucking needle in my arm and feel good about yourself later. I wouldn't want to do hanging. Hanging is one I wouldn't want to do.

No, hanging, I'll pass on that. I don't know that I like the dead by serum or whatever. The lethal injection? I'm not crazy about that. No, they don't do a very good job of it either. They suffocate and suck. They just do it the way they do the dog and cat. It's like overdose of morphine or

whatever it is. Here's a shit ton of fucking recreational barbiturates. They just fucking die instantly. Did you read the story about the scientist from Australia who had to go to the Netherlands? He's 104 years old. He's just like, yeah, I just want to be done with this. He said, don't do

anything with my body. I want anything done with my body. I didn't hear that. I thought that's what I read. Don't do anything. Just leave it here. Don't do that. Any of that stuff. Just put it in a corner. Don't do any of that stuff you do. I'm just a husk. The brain is gone. I'm done. Yeah. It's a shame that

somebody has to travel all the way from... And I read a bunch of people like comments and, you know, like counterarticle. There's not a single good argument against the ability to do that. I don't know what that is. Like it's not just none at all.

I want to go back. I want to circle back for a second before we get off something that I'm actually interested in, which is assisted suicide to somebody saying firing squads. You remember every third week, Jim Baker saying they want to kill him. They want to kill Trump. They want to kill Trump.

And I've never heard anybody say that. I've never heard. And I mean, except for unless they're crazy people or whatever. Nobody's nobody's advocating for. There's nobody. There's nobody who's like, Oh,

you got a murder. Those are only stupid people who are going to get investigated. Those are, that's all it is. Right. The people who, you know know who dislike him the most i think the worst anybody expects on him is like that he's going to die in office or something right like that's from his poor health right but like what i want is for him to either you know what what i want for trump is to you know lose in 2020 or you know somehow vacates the office before then,

whether that's impeachment or whatever. But, you know, I want to see him lose in 2020. That's what I want. That's that's the future I hope for him. Sure. You know, it's for him to lose. So the you know, the that bullshit projecting that they're doing like they want to kill him.

They just want to kill him. All we want to do is just talk about how shitty is. That's all I want to do. I don't want to kill him. They just want to kill him. All we want to do is just talk about how shit he is. That's all we want to do. I don't want to kill him. I don't care about it. But these people will say things like this. Like, well, firing squad would be a good thing. I don't agree with them. We should kill them. I mean, literally, this is

what he's been talking about. It's not coming from the other side. It's coming from your side, man. The call was coming from inside the house. The call was coming from inside the house. The call was coming from inside the Bible. Well, that's because that book is full of fucking violent retribution, right? Absolutely, yeah. Like, their book is nothing but an excuse to create or to foment violence against whoever your enemy happens to be.

Yeah. That's it. Put them all in, stick them up against the wall and take them out. I don't think you're laughing. Like, she's laughing, but I think that's a nervous and take them out. I don't think you're laughing. Like, she's laughing. But I think that's a nervous laugh on her part. I don't think he is. I don't think he's kidding.

No, I don't think he's kidding at all. I think these guys would. I think they. And the thing is, I think they believe that it would be right. Yeah. I think that they believe that it would be a moral action. Yeah. To round up liberals and other obstructionists

to their worldview. And then murder them. And kill them. And murder them. Somebody said to me the other day, how come is Hollywood so upset with the president? I said, oh, well, let me tell you why.

Because in Europe, the EU passed a law to fund the whole film industry of Europe. I don't know if that's true. That doesn't sound like it's true, but the EU passed a law to fund the whole film industry of Europe. I don't know if that's true. That doesn't sound like it's true, but the EU passed a law to fund the film industry. Why are they always so worked up about Hollywood? Because it's a message they can't control.

It's just movies. It's just a message they can't control, though. And they get upset when it's a message that they're not in control, that they're not in control of that narrative. Do they think movies are that culturally powerful? I don't think so. I don't, I think they do. Do you? Well, I'll tell you culturally, I think they are powerful. I mean, let's just talk about segregation, right? My dad grew up with segregation. My dad was a prejudiced dick even all the way up until he died, right? He was, and I don't want to call it, it's a racist. That's not prejudices and a thing. It's racism, right? My dad was a racist until he died. Right. He was, and I don't want to call it, it's a racist. That's not prejudices in her thing. It's racism.

Right. My dad was a racist until he died. Okay. So, but he, his culturally, like that's what he was, that's what he saw.

Right. And that's how, that's, that's sort of how he grew up. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not saying that's a good way to think. I know,

but you're explaining. It's a shitty way to think, but I think that, that that's the way he grew up and that's how he saw things. And that's, that's what helped form his life. That's what helped form how he lived. And I feel like as time goes on, the same thing's happening with, you know, the normalization of what we think, you know, sexuality is when we think of sexuality as a spectrum rather than just here's your here's your cookie cutter.

You know, I don't think that there's many people these I'm sure that there are people. you know, I don't think that there's many people. These, I'm sure that there are people, I know there are people, but I would imagine the majority of people would not be upset or freaked out by a mixed marriage. No, but I guess like, would not be like, I'm right there with you. I'm right there with you. I just think that like, they, they, they focus on Hollywood, which is films in the film industry. And I think that the influence of film on culture is waning. I think so too. But I also think that,

you know, like if you have a movie with, you know, people that are, you know, a mixed couple or whatever, you are normalizing that when you have a movie with a guy that's, and I'm not saying that's bad.

So don't send me your email and be like, fucking normal. What is he, what are you saying about that? I fucking clearly don't give a shit who marries who. Okay. So don't send me your messages. What'm saying is is that you know making them like making sure to include minority couples and things like that in those movies helps make other

people see it and see those people as people right you know what i mean like it opens their eyes to those people as people you would know like ask all those people who had a gay person come out in their family about how they thought about it before and how they think about it now and how that changes how everybody thinks. And that's not all the time. Some people get rejected. Right. I'm not saying that doesn't happen, but I'm also saying that a lot of people are just

like, oh shit, until it was my son, I kind of disliked it. But now it's like, yeah, now it's in my house. His boyfriend's coming over for dinner. I just got to deal with it. I think that there is some normalization there, but I also think that it is. That they're mad that there's a narrative that they can't control. Yeah, I think you're right. What amuses the hell out of me

is like, I just feel like the film industry is losing its power. I feel the same way. But they're so hung up on it. It'd be like saying the demon record industry. Right. You know, like all the CDs. You'd be like, really? I don't even have anything in my home that plays them.

I don't either. What would I do? If you gave me a CD, I'd be like, I got to take it out to the car. I literally, I do have one in my car still, but I don't have one at the home. I have a CD player in my car that has the same CD that I bought a used car. It had a CD in it.

Yeah. And it's still there. It's still the same one in there. Where would you bring it? I'm going to, I, I'm going to keep the CD in there and sell the car with it. I like the idea of just living inside my home car. Absolutely. And, and to support that.

And they had put a law on the books in America that if Hill reader got in the whole of Hollywood would be funded by, by the fed. No, that's not even remotely true. They put a law. So they preempt the Republican Congress and Senate put a law. We created a law so that if the democratic president that came in,

what then created a Hollywood funding bill, that's what you just said out loud was going to happen. You do realize that Obama had essentially obstructionist government for six fucking years. When did they make it? Why would you create a law? The trigger for that law going into effect is your political loss. Right? Well, when I lose,

we're going to give you this thing we don't want to give. What the fuck? This is the dumbest shit I've ever heard. And the worst part is the people here are going to go, oh my gosh, they were going to make a law. They were going to make a law to fund all the movies by the government? The government was going to fund all the movies?

And then what? I'm still not sure why I care that much about this. Is he going to elaborate? Out of our supply. The taxpayers would have to pay for that. And Trump nixed that the moment he got into office. That's why they're hating him. Shut the fuck up.

Trump was like, what about my movie funding? Here's the thing, guys. It's got the wrong name on it. It says Hillary. My name's Donald. So my answer to that is, and then by the way, their parents brought them in. It wasn't their fault. It's true in some cases, but they aren't all valedictorians. They weren't all brought in by their parents. For everyone who's a valedictorian, there's another hundred out there that they weigh 130

pounds and they've got calves the size of cantaloupes because they're all in 75 pounds of marijuana across the desert. So the story is from everywhere, but our, our sources from CBS news. Now we're not going to play this clip, but you guys should go listen to just Google or find it, find it on our show notes,

find it on our show notes. It's going to be the one, a Trump calls some illegal immigrants, animals. Clearly the language is meant to dehumanize, right? Right. And clearly one of the problems is that

Trump is not careful with his use of language. So it is open interpretation based on what he said, whether he was referring to people who commit certain crimes. I think you and I both agree that he's talking about the MS-13 gang. I feel like from that clip, I feel like what he intended to say was that he's talking about the ms-13 gang i feel like from that clip from that clip if you watch what he intended to say yeah was that there are people in the country now whether this is true or not is a problem yeah but whether that he's he's clearly intimating here that there are people in this country who are committing violent horrific acts and that those

people need to go they aren't people they. They're animals. And like, you know, the argument about whether or not illegal immigrants are committing in numbers statistically significant enough to be worth talking about. Acts of extreme violence. The sort of acts that would get you labeled as an animal. That is sort of a separate question from what did the president say? Yeah. If we're talking about what the president said here, he may be wrong,

but I don't think he's saying all illegal immigrants are animals. Yeah. That's clearly not what he's suggesting. I don't think so either. But I think that when you start referring to, that's like saying,

well, I'm only going to refer to black, bad black people as N-words. Right. You know what I mean? You're right there. You know what I mean? Right. You're right there. So, you know what I mean?

So, if you start dehumanizing one group of that population, are you then going to leech and sort of do that to the rest? Is it easier to otherize people within that marginalized group? And I think the problem is with this statement is that I've seen a lot of people today post this as if he never said anything about the gang. I saw a lot of posts today that sort of just referred to it as like, he called them animals. What a big jerky head. And you're just like, but that's not

look, I don't like the guy. I don't like the guy at all. Go watch this clip. Go watch this whole clip. And I don't know how you watch the whole clip or read the entire exchange and think he's talking about anything else. Right. Yeah, I think it's being reported in a really unfair,

untrue way that strips it of the context that renders the comment meaningful. Now, whether you like the meaning or not is a separate question we should talk about. And I think you have a good point. I agree completely with your point. I just, I think like the way that Huffington Post and WAPO framed it, framed it rather, is dishonest. Well, I think that they do flesh it out in the Huffington

Post article. They do say it was about this. But you got to get pretty far down in the article. You do have to get pretty far. The headline is misleading. The headline is, I think, a little misleading. And I think a lot of people are catching the headline and not following through on the article. The articles are, I think, saying that it was in this exchange. But the headlines are things that pop. They're the things that grab. And they're the things that people post. They're the things that people talk about.

And when you say he called immigrants animals, that's a much better headline than he called MS-13 animals. Right. I think you're right, though. He's not a wordsmith. He's not a. No. He can't make a statement, I think, that is direct and exact. No.

He is constantly fluffing. He's constantly making his, the things he does, the most important things. And the way he even talks in this clip is how he's talking about how, you know, we are getting rid of these people. It's not like they didn't just get rid of these people anyway forever it's not like we haven't been deporting people forever he didn't invent the idea of fucking deporting and he didn't invent the idea of deporting criminals like that's been happening forever right so it's not like he's doing anything different they didn't invent the fucking immigrant criminal right before he became president and they and they certainly didn't invent the deportation of the immigrant criminal right before he became president. And they certainly didn't invent the

deportation of the immigrant criminal before he became president. The problem is, is that everything he does, whenever he talks, he'll say things like, you know, he will make the comment about animals because he wants to make it seem like everything he's doing is the most important thing he could possibly be doing at this moment. The more he speaks, the less clarity he offers, right? Which is a problem. Absolutely. But I do think that like he is framing the immigration issue as a national

public safety issue, which is horrible. And that is a bullshit way to frame immigration. Absolutely. He's doing that on purpose. He's focusing on this, this gang, you know,

he's focusing on a small statistically, probably insignificant number of violent actors within a subgroup in order to paint the whole subgroup with that. Like that's all a real fucking problem. And he does that in order to motivate people based on their emotional reaction to safety and violence. Right. That, but none of that is new. Yeah. None of that is new. None of that is new. Yeah. None of that is new.

What the problem is that like, if we don't, if, if, if we don't responsibly report, including the headline, which is the most important part of what we report. Yeah. Cause it's most of what people read,

you know, like there's kind of this like bullshit, get out of jail thing that people say. It's like, oh, it's just a, it's just a headline for clicks. Just a headline for clicks.

Nobody reads the article to, or the truth is in the article. You put a big headline on there for clicks. Just a headline for clicks. Nobody reads the article, or the truth is in the article, you put a big headline on there for clicks. I know that's what we do. What I'm saying is that's fucked up. And we shouldn't give dishonesty a pass.

Especially if that dishonesty is going to, well, we shouldn't give dishonesty a pass in journalism no matter what. And that's dishonesty either direct or by omission, right? But we also need to be careful that we don't lose

our fucking credibility in this process. That's the thing is, you know, he's been singing all these songs about fake news forever. Right. So if we become fake news. Now you look like it

because you're reporting this. I just want people to be more careful. Look, it's okay, I think, to talk about what you said, which is statistically it's a stupid thing to say. It's okay to say, look, we shouldn't be dehumanizing people because when you dehumanize a group of people, that dehumanization tends to bleed to the entire group. These are bad things that you're doing. I think both of those things are valid criticisms that hold a lot of weight. They are both important, valid criticisms

that basically refute his statement. So use those. That's how you argue this. You want answers? I think I'm entitled. You want answers! I want the truth! You can't handle the truth!

Let's do some right-wing watch. Trump supporter wants Muslim heebie-jobbies. Oh, my God. Fired from the TSA. Oh. What? Heebie-jobbies. What? Okay, so this is...

Gloria at checkout By the way Stop yelling at me. Thank you. Yes, go ahead. I'm Kathy Chevalier. I'm legislative chairman for the state of New Hampshire. You said your name good.

Good. Good. I'm glad you're the fucking legislative whatever. I'm glad you're whatever you said. I want to tell you. I'm sorry. I would like to tell you. I want to thank you, first of all, for everything you've done for the veterans. We all in the VFW know what you've done. We all in the VFW, in the Moose Lodge,

our pancake breakfasts are whiter than they've ever been. I will tell you, we have a raffle going on. Fish fry on Friday. Come on by. Spaghetti dinner Wednesday night. You're going to love it.

Did you go to any of those when you were a kid? Yeah, my dad took me to the fish fries at the VFW. We used to go to the Moose Lodge fish fries when we were kids. We went to the VFW fish fry

occasionally, and we had spaghetti dinner. What was the best food at one of those places you've ever had? Like the one thing that you're like, that is a good food.

Is there anything that was good? I actually liked the fish fry. Fish is easy to do. Yeah, it's fried fish. It's like, it doesn't taste like anything but fried and hot.

When I was a kid, my mom and dad used to take us to the Moose Lodge breakfast. Okay. And it was every, once a Sunday, like one Sunday a month,

they had the Moose Lodge breakfast. Now the potatoes were all rye potatoes that they poured out of a bag or whatever. And the scrambled eggs were made by somebody who doesn't know how to do them. Right. But there was a lady who made biscuits and gravy every time. I love biscuits and gravy. And I fell in love with that lady. She had the best biscuits and gravy.

They were amazing. And it wasn't a difficult recipe. It's actually a really easy recipe. And one of the things about it that they, that sort of, that I like about it is that it's, it's sort of a quick way to make it, that she made it, but she made it good. It was good every single time, every single time. And I love biscuits and gravy too. To this day, I love biscuits and gravy and she made an excellent biscuits and gravy. And that's what I remember from those, those, you know, those, I don't know, like fraternal dinners or, you know what I mean? Don't come out and say it. Okay. Very much. We appreciate it.

And biscuits, by the way, for you, UK people, they're not cookies. Oh, okay. So biscuits here are like a savory scone. So that's kind of what it is. Oh, I forgot. They don't know. It's like a scone without fruit in it that has salt. So think about it that way. I don't know if you guys have any butter and butter and they're flaky and good. But scones are really good, too. So I know you know what a scone is. It's like a savory scone. So imagine if you had like a cheese scone, maybe sometimes it's something like that. like a savory scone. So imagine if you had like a cheese scone, maybe sometimes it's something like that. But just

to mix quickly, homeland security and jobs. Why aren't we putting our retiree, our military retirees on that border or in TSA? Get rid of all these heebie-jobbies they wear at TSA. Oh, what do you think Trump's thinking right now? Casual racism. Here we go, folks.

What do you think Trump is thinking right now? Trump is thinking, I'm going to high-five this lady and then I'm going to fuck her. Yes, I've seen them myself. We need the veteran. No, he's trying to shut her up. He's like, uh-oh. They said something and then clearly somebody's going to say something about it.

They're in New Hampshire. Oh my God. That's unreal. The heebie jobbies You guys in New Hampshire Need to go to the VFW and have your pancake dinner And infest the VFW with your democratness Right I can't

The thing that makes me crazy about that is This is an example Where people feel emboldened To be racist Absolutely Because she's standing in front of the President of the United States uttering this fucking bullshit.

This is like when you got your, you know, like when you get something fucking repaired in your home and the repair guy comes out and he's like, you're a white guy. I can talk about black people like they're This is an extension of that. Like I'm Richard Spencer. Right. Back in there to take it. They fought for this country and defended it. They'll still do it. Okay. Thank you.

You know, and we are looking at that. We're looking at taking their headscarves away. We're looking at getting rid of the hippie jobbies. And we are looking at that. We're looking at a lot of things. I have to tell you, as long as you bring it up. You wouldn't believe it what we look at. We look all the time. We're every

time we walk around the whole time we're awake. Eyes open. I just want to say all of us eyes of the border. Some great people. And now, you know, this we were endorsed. I was endorsed by sixteen thousand five hundred Border Patrol agents. These are the people that take care of the border. And first time they've ever endorsed in the history of the union or the group. It's the first time they've ever endorsed a presidential candidate. I love that he's like, the first time in the

state of the union that someone has been endorsed by this group. It's because you're going to expand their fucking area of responsibility to protect their jobs and ship money into the thing that feeds their family. It's so transparent. The only person that doesn't see it is him. Because he's fucking self is him. Right. It'd be like

because he's fucking self-centered and shitty. It'd be like if he was like, I've got this great podcasting initiative. Yeah. It'd be like, oh, tell me more. And I don't even know if they're supposed to be doing it. And they said, we don't even care at this point. It's 16,500

incredible people, Al. These are incredible people that want to do their job. It's easier for them not to do their job, but they want to do their job. They want to get paid more. They want to make sure that they have job security. If you don't have them do their job, then they just don't have a job. It's not like we're just like, well, we'll just keep 16,000 people on for a low, like that don't have to do a lot of work.

Well, I just have them come in four hours a day and still pay them. Isn't it easier for everybody not to do their job? Isn't it always? It always is. Yeah. Would it be easier? Unless my job is napping. What am I, a cat?

And so I was really honored by that. And I was also, as you know, endorsed by Sheriff Joe from Arizona. Oh, the criminal? The felon? The guy who had a pardon. Yeah. Because he's horrible. Yeah.

Great. Cheer for that, New Hampshire. Who's had some great victories lately. So Sheriff Joe is great. So we're going to do a job. Sheriff Joe is great. We love Sheriff Joe. We're going to do a job.

Well, it can't be a blowjob because that costs $130,000. That's expensive. For $130,000, it better be. Well, that's because of the fucking United States and inflation. It's like. For $130,000, it better be. That's because of the fucking United States and inflation. It's like the military when they used to buy toilets for, you know,

a million dollars or whatever. You overpay. You overpay because it's in the budget. You just want to make sure you spend the budget. God damn. So, $130,000 every single sex act. That's for everyone? Everyone. So if you go around the world, you're like a 390? Get a Handy.

There's no way I'm paying over a hundred for that. So we want to thank our patrons. Of course, we want to thank all our patrons. We want to thank our most recent patrons, Stuart, Marcus, Marcus with a K,

the quiznos demon, Gary. I'm starting my own intellectual dark web with blackjack and hookers. Phillip, Kirk, Nolan, Stacy, and Grant.

Thanks so much for your generous donations. You guys are the reason that glory hole studios continues to exist. And you may be the reason why I have an income. We will find out soon. So we've got a bunch of emails we want to cover here. The first isn't as a video that was sent to us. This was sent to us by OSV and they sent us a, a wallet honesty test.

There's 200 wallets dropped all over in different cities and different economic areas of those cities. And Chicago scored really high. Was it the highest? They returned all of the wallets. They got a perfect score. So interesting that Chicago does very well. Bullet holes in all of them. Yeah, there's blood

on them. Religion is not a factor, nor is income, which is very interesting. Sir, did you drop this corpse? Sir, this wallet came out of the corpse you're carrying. So check it out. We'll put the video on this week's show notes. Yeah, it's pretty neat. A bunch of cities did well, though. Oh, yeah, absolutely.

The funny thing is that even the bad cities, I was just like, I was shocked like you that so many of these cities wound up giving the wallets back. There's so many honest people. And some people went through great pains to return these wallets. So it's pretty cool. We got a message.

This is from Remicheli. Am I pronouncing that right, Tom? Remicheli? Remicheli? Let's go with Remicheli. Remicheli from NASA sent us. They listened to 412, and we specifically asked for NASA workers. They said they work for NASA. And I can tell you that we don't have a single document about the troubled time survey of 2016.

So surprising that they didn't come up with Branson, Missouri in their research at NASA about what to do for the apocalypse. Tom, don't believe this. This is deep state stuff. Probably. Totally deep state. We got a message. This is from Matthew. And Matthew says he started our podcast after listening to Citation Needed.

And he is working his way back through the back catalog. So we're leaving you a message here, Matt, that you'll find eventually. Good luck to you. If he doesn't abandon ship. He's 123 episodes in. So Jeff sent us a message and he said, last time I remember when I was talking about the insoles and I said,

it's like having a vasectomy club. And I said, what do you call a vasectomy club? And he says, you know, you call it vasecta us or at least vasecta we. I think that's pretty good. Vasecta we is a great name for a vasectomy group. A couple people sent us messages in talking about the Hunchback of Notre Dame, Tom.

We had said that we were surprised that Frollo, the person who's doing that sort of like song that's like burn the girl because I can't get none from her is a priest. And we were wrong. It looks like he's a judge, although in the book

In the book, he's an archdeacon or an archbishop or something. And he's clearly like a heavily religious figure because he talks about living righteously and God and there's clearly a choir of... Right. So there's a lot of religious motivations around his reasoning. But I was wrong. I want to get that clear.

I was just wrong. But you know, it's hard but again, all the imagery, especially from that clip, clearly looks like he looked like a cardinal or something to me. Right. I don't trust him in that way. I think you know, it's probably that they just change it for the movie to avoid that controversy, but they keep all the thematic

elements the same. Tom, we got a message from Matt, number one, Matt. And he sent this. He says he changed a guy's opinion about abortion when he asked me why I support it. And here's the scenario he could understand, Tom. He said, imagine your mom is

walking home from work. She gets raped. The ultrasound shows the baby has serious defects. It's going to take away all your family resources. You won't be able to go to college. Are you going to be able to look at your raped baby brother and love it? Raped baby brother. Do you expect your mom and dad to love it? Real son,

rape son. If he, if you guys all get jerseys, does he have a visiting team? Okay. Oh no. Sorry. Do you expect your mom and dad to love it abortion and i think i thought this

this line is great abortion isn't about sexually uneducated women getting inconvenienced for 20 years by falling pregnant by mistake you know that's a good it's there are so many reasons in favor of abortion but you know bottom line is, nobody should have to raise a child. They do not want to raise that child will not benefit from that. So we got a message. Um, this is from K and K sent in and said, look, I'm going to be one of those annoying people that said that want to correct you. There are such things as crisis actors, right? Crisis actors help police in both in scenarios in which they try to do training and drills and the scenarios will have them be both victims and criminals. And these people get paid. So I want to I want to sort of change what I said if I and I don't remember exactly what I said. I might have said something like or Tom might have said something like these people don't exist. Crisis actors don't exist. Crisis actors do exist. But what we said, and what I think you should take from what we said is that crisis actors, as they're depicted by Alex Jones and all the rest of those crazy people are not a thing. That's not a real thing. They are, they

are not, they are not actors paid by the deep state to pretend that they were victimized when nobody was actually victimized while that story is being reported as a true thing that happened. So we got a message from a longtime listener and he wanted me to tell Tom about a dream. And I have a dream I want to

tell you about too, Tom. For fuck's sake! Alright, I'm going to get my shit and go. Okay, so it says, last night I dreamt an erotic performer, Audrey Batoni, got to look her up later, bookmark that, and I traveled back

to the 70s to prevent my grandmother's suicide. We were very concerned about her rights as a woman in a more patriarchal time, both legally and socially. For some reason, we bought a house, but the pipes in the basement were leaky, so we built a pool.

Also, she was hot. I love that. I want to tell you, Tom, real quickly. Recently, I had this dream. Oh, my God. Are you really doing this? I'm definitely going to tell you this. I had a dream that Margot Robbie and I, you know who Margot Robbie is?

No. Margot Robbie is Harlequin from the Justice, from the Suicide Squad. I think she was in Wolf of Wall Street. I had a dream that her and I were in a convertible driving around and we had to go back to my place and she needed to take a shower

and she took a shower and then I walked in the room and she had a towel around. I was like, oh, I'm sorry. You know, you get some stuff over there. I had a dream that I was platonic friends with Margot Robbie. I am the oldest person. We were just platonic friends. You had a dream that a hot chick, like literally one of the most beautiful women on the earth went to your house to take a shower that I was hanging out with in a convertible, went to take a shower.

And I was, I actually apologized when she was in a tall, walked away. Yeah. I don't even, I don't even know me, Tom. I don't even know me.

What has happened? The worst. It was the worst. I woke up and I was like, stupid, stupid, stupid. You had one chance one chance

to trick the rest of me oh oh buddy sucks that's the worst that being old has been to me that is the worst it's just that dream worse that dream worse that's the worst that you know as you age the bad things happen as you get older. It takes longer to recover. You ink in places you didn't know. My vision started to go bad. But this has been the worst part of it.

I had a dream one time where I thought I was eating a cheeseburger. And I woke up to the sound of my own jaw snapping shut. Did you break a tooth? No, but I snapped my jaw shut on an imaginary cheeseburger. That is only a little less disappointing than you not dream fucking this girl. It's a dream.

I know. What the fuck? Oh, gosh. Margo, if you're out there, give me a call. We got a message from We got a message from You'd be like the guy in a dream who calls the police on Freddy Krueger. You know, like, there's a disturbance on Elm Street. Hang on a minute.

Get off my lawn, Frederick. And take your little sweater with you. It's like 75 degrees out there. You don't need a sweater, Freddy. You're like running out there with a tube of Neosporin for him. You look hurt. You look burned. We put some

gauze on that. So we got a message and this is from Rizukin. I don't know if I'm saying that correctly, but Rizukin sent in a message about the Simpsons and it's a Snopes article we're going to post on this week's show notes. What's funny about this

is that they did predict the presidency in some ways because in, there was a clip of Lisa saying, what did President Trump, what was the budget left from President Trump? But there's like these things going out, these like memes or whatever that show like that, you know, they predicted him coming down a staircase in 2000. They also predicted the map and none of that is true. Like, so they did technically predict in some ways the presidency by mentioning it. They made a joke about it. But I think a lot of people made jokes about it. But we just want to put this out there so it doesn't look like we're saying that they

did all of these other things. Because I think all Tom said was that they did purge it to the presidency, which they did. But you're right. All this other peripheral stuff is not true. Not true at all. So we'll post the link to the false on Snopes for this episode. Tom, we got a message from Jordan, and Jordan

says that they thanked us for talking about what would happen in Texas if they got rid of abortion. They said they live in the Rio Grande Valley. It's one of the poorest places in the nation. One abortion clinic for about 1.3 million people. And it's actually a little worse if they shut down abortions in Texas,

they would have to drive to New Mexico, which is a 12 hour drive. And it's the only place nearby that doesn't have a 24 hour waiting period And it's a, it's the only place nearby that has a, that doesn't have a 24 hour waiting period. You can't go to Mexico and get an abortion outside of Mexico city. And they said the medium per capita income there is 14,500. So most people can't even afford it. Yeah.

They can't afford it. So, um, so yeah, like, like if you banned it in a state, especially at large state like that, like the,

so many people would be affected. It would just be so difficult. Yeah. Yeah. And it's like if you banned it in a state, especially a large state like that, so many people would be affected. Absolutely. It would just be so difficult. Yeah. Yeah. And it's like, you know, the thing is, is like I understand because, you know,

they banned a lot of guns in Chicago for a very long time and you could just go right over the border in Indiana and get it. And buy one, yeah. There's a big difference between traveling to Indiana from Chicago and traveling to New Mexico

from Rio Grande Valley. Yeah. So next week, we're hoping to have a guest on. We'll see how that goes. We won't be sure that there's going to be a guest, but we're never sure until we hear him on the other end of the line. We're supposed to have a guest this week. We didn't have a guest. But next week, we're hoping to have a guest on, a different guest, and we hope it's going to be an interesting

interview, so check us out next week. That's all the stuff we got for you this week. We hope you check out Citation Needed. We wanted to mention that Citation Needed is having its first live show. Um, the live show is happening on August 11th in Chicago at the Victory Biograph Theater. You can get links to tickets, uh, on our, on this, this episode, show notes 415, or you can go to Citation Needed's Facebook. You can find links to tickets. It's going to be a lot of fun. Oh, I can't. I am

crazy excited about this. If you are in or around the Chicagoland area, you should go. You should see it, check it out, and have a chance to see a live taping of Citation Needed. There's tickets available. There's an event bright for it. There's different ticket packages and levels that are available. It's just going to be a lot of fun. We did one live show

in Australia and Sydney. And it was a hoot. I loved it. It was just such fun. It was such fun. And the thing is, is that this is going to be a double header, we think, because Citation Needed shows are short. So we're probably going to be recording two or three shows on stage that night. So it should be a lot of fun. It's going to be a whole night full of, full of recording and you get a chance to meet the puzzle in a thunderstorm guys. You get a chance to meet us and,

and we should be a great time. So check out if you're interested in tickets, it's going to be in Chicago in August, August 11th, check out this week, this week's show notes for the link. And if you want to get a sense of what a live citation needed, sounds like,

check out the Ned Kelly episode that was recorded live. So that's going to wrap it up for this week. We're going to leave you like we always do with the skeptics creed. Credulity is not a virtue.
