Andy and Kansas, you're on the air. Thanks for holding.
Hello, Alex. I'm a first-time caller. I'm a huge fan. I love your work.
I love you.
Hey, everybody. Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. I'm Dan.
I'm Jordan.
We're a couple dudes. I like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex June.
That is, that is what we do.
Indeed, it is.
Let me ask you a question, please do.
All right.
Can you put it in the form of two questions?
All right. So, if you were about to be indicted.
Were I?
Were you about to be indicted?
Let's bring it into the subjunctive.
Would you appreciate it if the leading propagandist of our times, at least the craziest propagandist of our times?
Sure, sure. The most bizarrely effective.
Right, exactly.
Against all odds, Alex Jones, very effective.
Would you like it if he was a huge fan of yours?
No, it would probably be bad. Probably be a bad look.
It wouldn't be good.
Well, because it's sort of, you then have to analyze who else is he a big fan of, and then it starts to become like, uh-oh, uh-oh.
That's really good analysis, and that suggests the answer to my next question.
What is that?
Who knows more about Alex Jones between the two of us?
This guy.
I don't know anything about Alex Jones.
That was the most successful opening bit we've ever done.
I knew it at the same time.
It was all very weird, like I backed you into a corner with a double question.
Always.
So anyway, we like to drink novelty beverages today.
We're on the Elysian Fields with a Space Dust IPA.
If you'd like to sponsor us Elysian or whatever the beer company is here.
Who cares?
I feel very bad now not knowing what company this is.
This is your first time drinking it.
It is. It's tasty.
Please, shoot us an email if you'd like to sponsor us.
We are drinking these because I have been sober for too long for unspecified reasons.
I think you were fucked up yesterday.
I was not fucked up.
I was high yesterday.
I wasn't drunk yesterday.
Well, now we get into a discussion of what the definition of sober is.
Look, I got to have both.
Otherwise, one or the other doesn't work as well.
I'm not judging.
So Jordan, today we're going to be going back into the past.
We're going to begin a new investigation that will be one of many investigations
because we were talking before the show and Alex Jones in the present really sucks.
Yeah.
It's too easy to see through his games, quite frankly.
We just had the November 4th communist uprising.
How did it go?
Went well.
Did they uprise?
Went well as we are.
Are we communists now?
Yep.
They took most of the Eastern Seaboard.
That was a very quiet coup that they just softened.
Oh, man, man.
I didn't even notice like a pillow.
This is smooth.
Like we all knew the idea of like Alex is creating a possible scenario.
And then when it doesn't happen, be like, ah, because we exposed it.
It didn't happen.
Yep.
These games are being played over and over again.
And then at the same time, there's all the sincerely nonsensical batshit stuff
about helicopters at the Las Vegas shooting.
Sure.
And what have you.
And that's just, I mean, it's not that fun.
No, we're still going to be talking about the present.
But I want to, I want to take.
I miss the 2015 investigation is what that's what you're saying.
Yeah.
I miss you wish that Alex Jones would travel back in time.
Maybe have sex with his mom.
Maybe.
Who knows?
Maybe.
But his old scientist buddy.
Sure.
Great guy.
And get on a train.
Oh, that would be fun.
That's back when America was prosperous.
Absolutely.
We used coal to power.
At least did shrug on trains, my friend.
Indeed.
So I'm going to, I'm going to do, uh, we have a couple of time travel episodes
that, uh, very, uh, delightful policy wonks have suggested.
Thanks.
Policy wonks that are actually a little bit more difficult than, uh, I would like
to admit, um, because they've just given.
You've just admitted it, Dan.
I've said, I would like to admit it's too late.
I mean, you admitted it.
I'm showing vulnerability here and that's why I attacked you.
The issue with, uh, psychologically, we're both great.
I'm working on these time travel episodes, but they, these wonks have
specified dates, but not years.
So going through various years of a specific date and trying to figure out
did something happen this year.
Um, it's, it's a bit of work, but I'm working on them and we'll have
something eventually.
But for now I'm going to embark on, uh, explorations that I want
to figure out along the way.
And today we're going to jump off on the investigation of we now
know why Alex Jones joined team Trump.
That's what I've heard.
But how long did it take him to go from?
I love Rand Paul, but I like the things that Trump is saying.
All right.
We got to support Trump to being, I will die for Trump.
Right.
How long does that transformation take?
And I suggest it's not going to take long.
I think this investigation is going to be a very short investigation.
It might be two episodes.
Okay.
All right.
All right.
I think it happens in January of 2016.
I think he becomes like a fully dedicated propaganda outlet for
Trump real fucking quick.
Um, but today we're going to be going over January 6th and 7th because
in the new year, he has David Knight host a bit to nurse that hangover boo
that, uh, that New Year's hangover.
Uh, and so we jump in on January 6th.
New Year's is his favorite holiday because he gets to dress like a Nazi.
Is that no Halloween?
Oh shit.
I just assume he dressed like so.
He dresses like a Nazi for every holiday to be fair.
You could dress like a Nazi anytime you want.
Like Sandra Bullock.
Alex Jones does spiritual come on now.
Um, so we're going to get into this January 6th episode and one.
You know, sometimes I'm grateful.
We don't have a lot of new listeners because that would sound very
weird if you hadn't had a year worth of this episode of this podcast to
go back through of the back and forth of Sandra Bullock's complicity
with her ex-husband's activities.
Um, so here I'm going to play a clip of Barack Obama speaking and oh my God.
I can't wait to hear him speaking.
This is a clip speaking about a recent shooting in January of 2016 less
excited to hear about him speak.
Well, it's still a pretty succinct clip and I'm playing this clip that
they play on info wars.
So that's why there's some spooky music course.
Oh my God, they're children, but it's important to hear the phrasing
and the words that Obama uses because Alex complains about this clip
for almost the entire January 6th episode.
So here is former president Barack Obama until we have a Congress
that's in line with the majority of Americans.
There are actions within my legal authority that we can take to help
reduce gun violence to save more lives.
So that is the clip.
That's the scariest thing I have ever heard.
It's a good thing that they put that music behind there.
So I know to be afraid of it.
Absolutely.
And the important thing to remember and I'm playing this upfront
because it's going to come up pretty inner intermittently.
The important thing to pull out of the phrasing that he uses is
until there's a Congress that's in line with the majority of Americans.
Right.
Now keep that in mind and we will get back to it.
On this on this episode, he gets into the globalists a bit.
Here is good.
I haven't heard too much about the globalists that doesn't involve
Trump recently.
So I'm excited.
It's true.
Here's a little a little tidbit about the globalists and their
plans vis-a-vis if they're being successful or on their own timetable.
Is the tide turning?
Yeah, of course.
It's always during all you collaborators all you that went along with
this you're destroying your own future.
You're bringing the United States of America into bondage and
yourself in the bondage bondage is fun as long as it's practice
such lazy cowards.
So I hope you enjoy yourselves.
I hope you're proud of yourselves.
Now because Patriots for the last 50 years exposed this agenda and
held it back and slowed it down and the globalists admit their
15 years behind.
When did they admit that all over the world?
Oh, that makes sense because the military actually sees how
really evil it is behind the scenes and even some people in federal
agencies I would have never thought this 20 years ago.
Sure.
There's some of the most awake people and one of the wild cards.
I don't want to say ace in the hole.
You would all be aces in the hole.
You decide to do the right thing.
So this this that is the least logical or intelligence sentence
I've ever heard my entire.
But you know at the end there what he said when he says do the
right thing he means spread our articles and buy my shit.
Yeah, that's kind of the subtext of it.
Right, but at the same time he's fulfilling a couple of his
narratives one.
The military is the most awake.
They know everything.
They're they're real good.
That's largely because he gets a lot of calls from military people.
Of course.
And then beyond that the globalists are 15 years behind plan.
They have admitted it.
Where nonsense.
When did they admit that?
Why would they admit that?
Who would admit it?
Who is the mouthpiece for the globalists admitting it now?
Let me admit something.
I'm 15 years behind on my life plan.
Hey, certainly.
I'm 15 years behind on just general maturity.
Yeah, absolutely.
But the globalists.
I played video games for 12 hours yesterday.
I am exactly 15 years old.
Yeah, I know, right?
I just got a switch.
Seems like 12 hours is a soft day.
Yeah, adults.
But yeah, the very idea that they even in their their white
papers or their they're like oh shit.
We're 50 years even publish it seems cockamamie seems like complete
nonsense.
Do they have conferences?
Like do they go to?
Do they go to like the Hilton?
They get a conference.
No, they're at Bilderberg.
They're at Bilderberg.
Yeah, but you know, I mean this just satisfies the other piece of
his narrative that is like the reason that we're not in FEMA
camps right now is because of me.
I am stopping the globalist because of me and people like me.
Let's say Joseph McCarthy back in the day.
Of course.
You know, these are the people who slowed down the globalists
plan.
Right.
You're welcome.
You're like J Edgar Hoover.
Right.
You're welcome.
Great people.
You're welcome.
Huge fan of Woodrow Wilson.
He really took down the globalists indeed.
He was all white supremacy all the time baby.
It seems like those things were on a concurrent path, but it's
probably a coincidence.
I'm sure I was watching the coverage of the supposed Antifa
riots on Saturday.
Yes.
How did it go?
It didn't go great.
They went Rob do hosted the first like two hours of it and
that's when I turned it off.
I'll watch an hour and a half adieu and then fuck it and he
needs to trim up his beard and that's me talking.
Yeah, he needs a haircut and a beard trim and that's me saying
that he looks like shit also suck it Rob do also.
He's not good.
You got taken down by Kathy Griffin and Dan Friesen also.
He's not good at his job.
It's just it was so boring.
It was terrible.
They had Owen shroyer on the street.
It was just a mess.
Why do they do man on the street interviews?
I don't know.
I have to know how bad they are at it right there.
It wasn't like he got owned by any kids this time right at the
same time.
It was just nothing.
It was just like it was background noise yet.
No one wants to talk to you basically no one did and once
he started talking to people like hey do you like Trump and
they'd be like I don't want to talk to you but yeah all right
and then just walked away which I mean I guess is the right
thing to do.
Don't harass.
Yeah, that's very reasonable.
It's bad television but the thing I wanted to mention was
I got I got to watch the live chat a little bit.
Oh no lot and words flying course a lot of blame the Jews
course in a whole lot of people posting 1488 which I don't
know if you know about is that Nazis.
I feel like that's not it's not see it's not see 14 because
the 88 is the SS right now H H H okay and then the 14 is the
14 words we will protect yeah we will we will eradicate
everybody who is in way.
It's not eradicate I mean that's the subtext but what it is
is about preserving the future of our children yeah by
eradicating everybody else right right or at least isolating
it and making sure nobody in different races fuck each other.
That's the soft neo Nazi that is a very interesting plan that
let me give you reasons why.
But that's the thing that's the thing is like I like that I
like that plan because that's like oh no no we're Nazis but
we're humane Nazi right how could you well I mean Richard
Spencer even talks about that like nonviolent call ethnic
cleansing and stuff like that yeah man I want him to be
violently ethnic cleanse though boy your soft yes position
has gone out the window when it comes to Richard Spencer I
don't think there's any soft yes well but look I don't care
that's not that's not break that down too far lest you
advocate for someone's murder I don't advocate anybody's
I agree what are you talking about I agree crazy under the laws
of parody I'm sure this is at least somewhat legal spell
parody.
The other thing are it why okay like the NFL fair enough all
about fairness so the thing I want to talk about though is
whether or not Alex Jones is okay with it or cool with it.
Nazis flock to him.
And he should know that there's a reason you know what I'm
saying yeah like that that it's not really an accident like
you know how Morris he has a large Hispanic fan base and
people don't really know why like everyone's confused like
not not sure why this is the case I think it's I think it's
very obvious why is that because he he speaks a lot about
emotional issues that are shared by a first or second
generation immigrants in LA okay all right like those are
the same feelings like I totally get that's a reasonable
enough I don't think that so I don't think that explains
everything I think it does fine.
That's a reasonable enough and that's why we need to build a
wall around more sure to hold in his tears.
That's a reasonable enough explanation for a sort of bizarre
counterintuitive fan base right there is no explanation needed
for why like if you have a Nazi fan base.
It's you you might be playing the not you are doing something
right in order to get that fan base right and Alex should be
aware of that which is interesting that Jeff Fox where
they made a career of kind of making fun of Nazis is that
real is that true now that we know what Redneck really means
Oh boy.
Communist neck exactly.
He was out there with a teeth.
So trying to bring back the Bolsheviks yeah in his next
clip if you just might be a czar in this next clip Alex we
can see your advisor trying to murder you six times you just
might be a czar if your advisor is spooky and has a giant penis
so in this next clip we find that Alex at the beginning of
2016 has not lost his heart on for Russia over the new year
he got drunk and it came out of that hangover still loves Russia
got you there's no where to run pretty much the whole planet
some of the control of the private central banks that the last
hundred years or so took over the planet via fraudulent digital
National Reserve money they came up with so now he doesn't do
a terrible job of diagnosing a problem yeah no I think he's
right he's not right but you know stop right there he's
correct calm down he's not right but he he does have a pretty
decent point to make about the idea of you know centralized
banking having a detrimental effect on especially third world
populations nailed it disenfranchised countries things
like that you know it's no Jews involved I mean there's some
Jews involved but not in a very Jew way why don't you hold
I don't know if I like saying that I don't I don't like you
saying I didn't like that period why don't you hold off on
it's weird to talk about a blatantly antisemitic subject
without having some like I just don't like it well it's it's
tough because we're dealing with someone who has such veiled
and powerful under the surface antisemitism right and so using
parody with him it often can sound and feel very uncomfortable
I know I don't like it it's tough but I want you to hold your
tongue about you know you really want me to not about that
I don't care about that I mean about any like he has a point
okay because it falls off the rails pretty quick okay and
does involve some no stereotypical Jewish cars
and they're militarily backed by the West and if a country
doesn't go along with the globalist they'll go hire
communist or other organizations to overthrow the country
they'll put them into total slavery for 10 20 30 40 50
60 70 years depending on the nation and then after that the
public so broke back and trained they then collapse and then
Rothschild banks take it over turned out that basically every
oligarch in Russia turned out to be a Rothschild front the
Rothschild sued two different newspapers a few years ago
saying it wasn't true and then it turned out the judge said
I can't believe the Rothschilds came into court and lied to
us like this this suit has proven the claims of the
newspaper
Morris Yeltsin all those people totally on the payroll of the
Rothschilds
that's not that's not starting all their people
and so they start moving NATO and weapons and try to overthrow
the Russian country so there is that narrative that he's
spitting here and it's it's a little bit problematic because
I mean it does come from a kernel of truth there were members
of the Rothschilds family that sued I believe it was the the
daily mail for libel oh yeah well that seems reasonable
anybody who's in the daily mail probably has standing to
sue the daily mail right yeah I would say so they're a trash
paper but in this case they did lose the suit and one of the
reasons is that libel especially in terms of politicians
super hard is very difficult to prove and what what they had
posted they had they had in the daily mail was that this
Nathaniel Rothschild who is the it described in this
independent article here as the scion of the banking dynasty
and friend of seemingly everyone in the spheres of finance
business and politics alright they had written that he was
quote the puppet master to the Baron of hurdle pool and foyer
I'm having a great time so far hurdle pool that guy who
the Baron his name is Mr. Mandelson and so the case they did
they did lose this libel case right because they they were it
was found that they were deeply involved with influencing
Mr. Mandelson was that was a British politician that's why
you shouldn't sue people when they're right right it's a bad
idea it's it's one of those intimidation things that can go
too far yeah and then you're like a shit yeah if we had a
functioning justice system I think Peter teal would have gotten
his ass handed to him by Gawker yeah unfortunately we don't
mm-hmm so the Nathaniel Rothschild sued over it the Daily
Mail's account of his and Mr. Mandelson's trip to Russia in
January of 2005 okay so Mr. Mandelson the Baron of foyer
and whatever I can't remember the other place it's a delight
just to hear you say Mr. Mandelson he is a labor politician
in Britain and he has also recently said that he will work
every day around the clock to undermine Jeremy Corbyn so we
can tell that he's probably more weight he's a labor
politician yeah you know okay so the pro finance labor people
are the pro corporate Democrats right right like here's the
same thing neoliberal Corbyn is Corbyn is your Bernie Sanders
except somehow he's kind of still for Brexit which is very
weird it's a very strange thing I understand slightly where
that comes from but I think it's I think it's I don't know
I don't I don't understand the intricacies of British politics
as well as I'd like but I have heard a couple accounts of
like arguments for Brexit then like I kind of get it I think
it's probably clunky and will be much more negative just
logistically oh I don't think it's going to happen no I don't
think anybody thinks it's going to happen if you thought it was
actually going to happen they would have to start building
borders between Northern Ireland and Ireland that will be a
terrible blow to Alex's Patriot narrative yeah doesn't end up
happening yeah because it's one of the cornerstones no
everybody involved knows that it's a terrible idea the people
campaigning for it knew it was a terrible idea they just
wanted to get elected it's just like it's just like Republicans
knew Trump was a bad idea but they're like fucking we already
did it so why not fucking follow through with it I don't know
will the people or some shit it's amazing to me what they will
hide underneath will of the people when they're lying to the
people right really fascinating that you can lie so blatantly
like like with the Republicans and like huge tax cuts to the
corporate rich are going to help you out right and it's like
it's the will of the people we can't go against them is like
no you could just tell them the truth right you could just
tell them the truth and they would and the people would be
like no no we don't will that well it's the difference between
like if you want to take it into a medical perspective it's a
difference between like consent and informed consent right
you need to have when people are making a medical decision
they have to be aware of the risks associated with it and
like be offered the literature and stuff like that absolute
and then once you have done that you have informed consent
from a patient to make a decision right there should be some
of that for voting right but I agree but the only problem
there is any time anybody tries to restrict voting we always
get into racism it's very unfortunate yeah and actually
I want to take that back because that I mean that even was
this that was a tactic of yeah the racist always any time you
try and restrict voting it's like education restrictions
like that yeah so I want to go back to this this thing about
the Rothschilds yes because they are the standard boogeyman
of Alex Jones and his ilk as like the terrible big like up
above the politicians pulling the strings because the Rockefeller
aren't really around anymore well David just died a couple years
back maybe a year or so ago they just don't have the wealth and
influence well but neither do the Rothschilds because it's
been so many years right and generationally the wealth has
been split up among a bunch of people and none of them wield
the same power course like the Baron of Rothschild did a hundred
years ago none of the Children of Henry Ford are ever going to
have no come anywhere near the power that he will and the
same thing as you're even like the Waltons yeah or like the
Walmart airs the Cronkies and stuff like right they have
regionally or in small conclaves big influence right but in
terms of like what they could have had during these like back
in the days of Henry Ford right it's not even close to that
like the Cronkies live in Columbia, Missouri they're one
of the branches of the Walmart fortune and they create a whole
bunch of trouble in terms of paying athletes and stuff like
that illegally course like weird under the table recruitment
stuff that everybody's aware of and everybody should be like
that whole argument is for another time but it should be
legal athlete should be paid I agree but not that way yeah no
of course but be that as it may they can do that shit and
they could do is lobby the NCAA to make it legal but no no
that they can affect like Columbia local politics and
stuff like that to a certain extent but they can't change
like they can't send us to war like you could have a hundred
years ago right so I'm going to read this this next paragraph
and at the end of it it gets dicey for the present. Oh no
Mr Rothschild claims he was subjected to sustained and
unjustified attacks in the May 2010 article which portrayed
him as a puppet master dangling his friend Lord Mandelson
in front of the Russian oligarch Oleg Derapaska it to ease
the passage of colossal business deals do you recognize
that name Oleg Derapaska boy it sounds Swedish so I'm going
to assume he's Swedish no it's not Russian are you sure positive
it could have been Middle Eastern he's he's Russian he's Russian
right from Russia hmm do you know what I can't think of anything
that Russia has done recently do you know what recently
indicted gentlemen was very involved with Oleg Derapaska
I'm still going back to Sweden is it a Swedish politician
because you got Mandelson in my brain. No he's British there
are no Swedes in this story. Oleg Derapaska is the Russian
oligarch that Paul Manafort offered to give briefings to
and there are indications that there is a lot of financial
debt between the two men of course so Alex bringing up this
libel case about the Rothschilds is a very interesting
window because the only Russian oligarch involved is a person
who's involved with Trump's campaign manager yeah and the
situation with the Rothschilds is that the Rothschild Nathaniel
Rothschild brought Lord Mandelson along to Russia right try
and pretend that if we can get some business deals going
Mandelson will be on your side in British politics right
which is like you're is a good thing. I was accidentally like
making a pattern I know accidentally I know it's a good
thing for him. He doesn't read anything because he will discover
that the complicated systems he's talking about right always
wind up pointing back to him being wrong totally. I mean if
you just replace Mandelson with Manafort you have almost a
parallel exact same situation exactly it's almost like there's
kind of for these like Russian oligarchs and crazy super
billionaires. It's almost like somebody wrote a playbook. It's
almost like somebody we know wrote a playbook. It's almost
like somebody who's been on Alex's fucking show wrote the
playbook that is taught in military academies. Yep. Yeah.
It's weird. I don't think I don't think he's I don't think
he brought the oligarch play we're over. I think that was
written back in 1910 with the the pes dispensing. Yeah. If you
were to try and make that kind of a claim about Alexander
Dugan I would have to stop you. I would get sued for libel
no because I buy the Daily Mail. Of course it's overestimate
just because he is like super involved in a lot of fucked
up stuff right and deeply involved in the stuff that we're
talking about. Right. It makes him sound like he's a big
bad. Oh yeah. That's not the case. If he's going on Alex
Jones's show he's not the he's not the final boss. No but he
is a cancerous influence and couched in intellectualism and
what have you to an extent that he is worth talking about but
to pretend like it all goes back to Dugan. Yeah. I've seen
some people on Twitter sort of making those sorts of arguments
and it's it's just because he has come on guys. He has such a
strong longstanding history of anti liberalism anti American
anti American American like all that stuff it makes it makes
him very easy to focus on and I don't know anyway Alex bring
up the Rothschild stuff there does not work in your favor.
It's interesting. It's so interesting. He just doesn't
understand. It's fascinating to see him talk about a global
organization as being something that he hates so desperately
and yet have no idea how a global organization would be such
a complicated system wherein even the bad guys are good
sometimes and the good guys are bad sometimes because it's so
many different interlocking parts where everybody's trying to
play this longer game and you do this whole thing and so he
has no concept of complicated systems. He only understands
bad good like he doesn't get it. Now he's just incapable.
Yeah. And it is a failing in terms of him being able to be a
newsman. Right. Oh that's the other thing I wanted to talk
about about the the Antifa riots that I was watching the quote
unquote right coverage of the fake Antifa riots right.
So Owen Shroyer was out on the street at the Austin gathering
of the resist fascism or whatever right and most of it was
covering how there were more Trump fans there than the actual
protesters and I don't because the protesters really kind of
didn't know it was going to happen and the Trump people were
like we've been listening in for worse. It's going to be an
uprising. We better get there and we got to be armed. Yeah
exactly. But the other thing is a lot of it was Joe Biggs
dancing around with pre-made signs and what have you like
it. They're covering an Info Wars reporter fucking with quote
unquote Antifa protesters optics are the story Dan right
but it's so silly. It's like you can't if you want to be a
journalist if you want to be doing journalism then don't go
work for Info Wars. Well there's that but also if you are
Info Wars and you want to do that. Yeah don't become the story
you're sending in at Rambo Biggs on Twitter right into the
fray with pre-made signs and shit to be report on him resisting
the Antifa. It's right. It's so stupid. I disagree even. No
I know it's I know what you're I know your point and I agree
with that but like from fuck you. No no I agree but like in the
real world right. No I understand it's smart from their
standpoint but if everyone understood how journalism
should work in unbiased external that sort of thing then it
would be like this is embarrassing. You know he still
kind of works for you. Right. Well but the the situation
ended the fire room about pizza gate but we don't really know
what the deal is there because you're pretending that didn't
happen. So I would have happened right. Well he didn't do
anything wrong. No because nothing happened exactly.
I wish some jobs would like give me that kind of leeway.
Oh it's a good thing nobody got shot anyways you're going to
take a day off right. We're going to give you one day almost
killed somebody leave and then you're back to work. We all
are in denial so you still have exactly. No I mean of
course they don't want to do real journalism because that
would be silly and hard. It's so hard to do. You have to call
you have to check sources. You can't have to cultivate sources
so they give you information down the road. You can't you
can't have a twenty six twenty seven year old dude with
probably like a sports fitness degree like helming the whole
thing exactly one degree. Yeah or hotel and restaurant
management like it's it be weird. He does not have a
journalism degree. I'll tell you that right really weird if
Mike Cernovich had a black history degree. That would be very
strange. African-American studies. I could see him having
like a media studies or something like that degree. He's
really he's much better than Alex in terms of manipulating
right or at least sort of like you could see it in the way
he's pivoted. He did that. I'm pivoting away from Trump thing
and then went on infowars the next day and now when he's on
infowars he sells it as that's pushing back against Trump.
Sure like he's he's like that. I don't agree. I don't believe
him but that's still a much more cogent argument for your
behavior than anything Alex has. Yeah. And so I think that
he's a little more savvy and probably will last longer.
That's true. That's true. I mean almost nobody brings up that
he was involved in Gamergate stuff and almost nobody brings
up all the fucked up stuff. He who cares. We don't have an
attention span. We don't have the reason that it's the reason
that it is a good idea for your your dumb ass is like Joe
Biggs to go be and insert themselves into the story is
because if you're Alex Jones your entire fucking business is
built on a personality inserting himself into the story more
or less everything. Yeah. So if you want that to continue
that's why the Trump presidency works for exactly. It's a
character inserting himself into the story is already into
the craziest story you can get to. That's interesting. Yeah.
So they have to cultivate the same kind of personality. It's
not about the work. It's about the guy being entertaining.
You're on to something there possible. So I apologize that
it's been almost half an hour since I played that clip of Obama.
It is. Oh my God. I have not gotten to the him him bringing
this up and here is Alex bringing up this clip and like I
said I wanted to make a point of pointing out that what Obama
actually said was we can't wait for Congress to get in line
with the majority of Americans. Right. And so there are
things Congress is shit. There are things that I can do within
my legal authority to try and put us against the tide of gun
deaths and right unnecessary death. So here is Alex Jones
covering that largely innocuous clip. Rand Paul came out slam
the White House for saying that the president says Donald
Trump's disqualified. Oh you're disqualified even this was also
in the context of comments being disqualifying and that sort
of thing. It wasn't like haha you stepped off base you're
disqualified or I thought it had something to do with the New
York Marathon. He wasn't allowed to run it. I don't think I
know. I know Trump is a huge marathoner right. I don't think
he could pass the physical. Is there a physical anyway.
Trump's rival Rand Paul came out and said that's very dangerous.
Oh of course it is. Quote we can't wait for Congress to get
in line with me. What's it called getting in line for a
leader. When you quote Chilchescu literally said quote
John shouldn't quote Hitler Joseph Stalin the island and Frank
Daribon. Genghis Khan for all my walls. You may have to keep
going on the line here. Dusty Baker Dusty wrote. They write
this stuff for him. Rolls collar to be naked better get in line
with me. I'll sign any foreign treaty and keep it secret if I
want. I'll open the border up if I want. I'll take your guns
if I want. I'll persecute whistleblower media. So at this
point he's getting a little bit too much into his Yosemite Sam
voice. Yeah. And it does him a disservice here. Just listen to
this. The most liberal members of the media exposing me for
torture and war. I'll sign the NDA to arrest you in the middle
of the night and put you on a plane to fly into Romania to
torture you to death because I'm black and so it's okay. Yikes.
I like that your face didn't even move like you did your eyebrows
didn't is we're at this point with Alex Jones that like that's
incredibly offensive. Well I was starting to think about my
wet white guilt and I was like I do think it's okay if you're
black.
Parody
like that. Look if a white dude did that shit I'd be all over
but he's black. What are you gonna do that is not even close
to true but like the like he's in that sufferin suck a tash
kind of like that mode that it gets too good to him that he
just like I'm gonna go for it goes all the way. I'm going off
the edge of this thing like because he's black. Yeah. Holy
shit. Those are the same people who insisted. No I didn't vote
for Obama because I don't like his economic policies right.
It's not because he's black. No now he's allowed to do
everything he wants because he's black and you guys let him
do it because because he's black because you guys are a bunch
of cucks but that's not why I know I like his he's gonna keep
foreign treaty secret as that's a and that's a bad thing but
if the military makes a treaty with Syria and Russia and Russia
yeah with no one else knowing. No that's great. That's fine.
They're patriots. They're patriots totally. Of course totally.
So this next clip Alex is doing some pot kettle action pot
calling the kettle black kind of shit. Here we go. This is
great. And we've got Obama. Hi Obama what people say is fake
crying. Certainly looks fake to me up there mentioning this
long list of shootings. As if each time it's a drumbeat and
how much more will we put up with one of our graphics guys
Zimmerman put together a satirical piece that supposedly
you know shows the teleprompter will roll that in front of
the screen for TV viewers they get a full view of it. That has
a bird's eye view of the teleprompter telling Obama when to
cry at what point. So Alex you have brass ball brass fucking
balls to certainly looks like fake I mean look if anybody
knows what fake crying looks like it's definitely Alex right
and I think that that is why he makes claims like that it's
like I think right all the time yeah exactly like deep down
he's like humans don't have emotion exactly humans don't I
know that if you're feet if you're looking like you feel
something you're faking it because I do what is Obama trying
to sell right does he have a mineral line what is going on
does Obama have a mineral he's the president but he's trying
to get on the B12 market dude if Obama sold brain force I'd be
far more likely to give it a shot still not be interesting
but that that to me is amazing and it's also the first of two
comedy pieces on this episode that we're not going to know no
comedy pieces all it is is like they play Obama's press
conference where he's very hardly speaking about these
shootings and how we need to do a better job in our country and
as we're recording this on Sunday there was just another
one and just reinforces that I like I like how he's I like how
he even said he said it like he's saying this like it's a drum
beat saying how much are we going to put up with and it's
like yeah no you nailed it that is exactly what he's saying
that's exactly what he's doing and that's the question that we
are absolutely incapable of asking ourselves I think most
of the country who are not beholden to the NRA and what
have you or Alex's dumb shit that's the question we ask
ourselves a lot like how much I mean you just turns out me
turns out it's everything before the show that there was a
shooting like a couple blocks away from our houses the other
day yeah I had no idea yeah that's that's how tuned out and
like sort of like a I mean it's not even a local big news nope
that's fucked up no fucked up Chicago yeah which is that and
again we can talk about statistics always all day it's
like Chicago has a lower shooting death rate than so many
other cities per 100,000 yeah but at the same time we do live
in a place where we have the second highest population or
third highest population in the country yeah it's nonsense
anyway Alex thinks that Obama is faking crying oh that sounds
right now let's enjoy this next clip which is sort of the
chaser to that shot.
You're in the break I am in just a state of grief morning but
also explosive will resist and fight and to set my full will
I think it's the will of Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior
against the enemy God please make me stronger please hear the
words please give me the reach to help reach more people and
help others also be moved stand against this evil
but those of us that love freedom are like high powered
700 horsepower cars.
We'll get back to that metaphor but I also notice that he
never says amen he prays a lot on air but never says amen weird
is this the thing I mean you're supposed to say amen right
I mean that's etiquette who gives a shit that's when you're
like God doesn't know when you stop God needs an over and out
it's a telegram yeah Lord please give me the strength to fight
stop Lord please let me a fucking fight for the Jesus Christ
what a stupid fucking religion and ask ours we can blow an engine
we can throw a rod we can get angry we can be mean to our
family members you name it I mean I have been not really mean
but super aggressive you don't have any more focus the last few
days and it's because my instincts are clean my head screwed
on straight and man I love I love America and I watched that
guy up there with I've got tears right now I don't want to
have tears I was so angry I made myself and I'm angry because
I'm so sad right it's if you watch the video is so fucking
fake it's so how is that bad I have tears in my eyes I don't
want to even though I don't want to have tears in my eyes is
the most revealing sense nobody who's ever cried against their
will has been like I'm doing this even though I don't want to
do this I feel this so powerfully I can't I don't even
want to do this you know what to it's just fascinating to me
the idea that he's fake crying because it is very fake it's
in the middle of saying that Obama's tears are fake right
and I'm not here to say that Obama really was crying I think
from everything I can tell it seems like he was sincere and
genuine right I don't know I don't know the man personally
I haven't spent as much time studying him as I have Alex
true I'm willing to believe his tears were real I'm not willing
to believe Alex's are course and based on that dichotomy the
fact that he's like all right I'm trying to say the president
is fake crying right I really need to amp this up
that's exactly what I was thinking that's exactly what I
was thinking as he was like this motherfucking Obama guy
stepping into my game totally I am gonna try to cry motherfucking
hard I will show you how you think you're gonna fake crime
I'm Alex goddamn emmerich fucking Jones and Sandra Bullock
is a Nazi hold on anyways you know it's fascinating to me
and it's just like it's so in line with what I've determined
in terms of Alex's psychology right like the fact that he
would fake cry while talking about Obama fake crying he has
to it's that's Alex Jones absolutely that's him to a T
now I have made a massive discovery what's that now it's
a discovery that we kind of already knew so how can it be
a massive discovery well it's it's it's something that we had
the sense of before okay but we didn't have as many concrete
examples of it and this is that Alex Jones the key to Alex
Jones is flattery right you can compromise him and corrupt him
through flattery easily incredibly easily the same way
we suspect that Trump can be compromised possibly or through
his business right well there's Alex might be more on the up
and up in terms of business but if anybody tells him you're
awesome we love you he falls in line as we heard he talked to
high end Russians who told him that Putin loves the show and
Putin listens all the time and one of you you can get high end
mail order bride so I assume you know these are high and
military Russians didn't marry them Russian intelligence I
know I'm just kidding so what you need to know is at the
beginning of 2016 Alex Jones scored an interview with Lewis
Farrakhan that is now my favorite thing that you've ever said
to me now we won't get to the entire interview on this episode
it's that good no because he hasn't aired it yet oh okay at
the timeline that we're in okay he teases it for a good week
and a half fucking teasing motherfucker you needed for the
context of this he has screamed about Lewis Farrakhan and
hates him and hates the nation of Islam and thinks that there
are a bunch of race baiters course and they all that but
naturally he gets to go talk to Lewis Farrakhan now listen to
this clip the show transcends though all the lines all the
race garbage all of it doesn't sound like it and that's really
what's so important about info wars and the responsibility we
have disagree because it doesn't matter if you're Vladimir
Putin you love him doesn't matter if you're a top general
depending on the matter of your Lewis Farrakhan they listen to
this show every day and every week Farrakhan people daily
listeners Farrakhan listener every week you're like what
does it matter Lewis Farrakhan listens to you Lewis Farrakhan
has changed a lot and he says that in the interview that's
what we want to do we want to win folks we don't want to divide
and conquer we want to come together and say no to what's
happening by con let's go out to break now I'm going to come
back with Obama just saying you're going to get in line
people say well what's he going to do he's got a low approval
rating how's he gonna do it above 50% it's the final chapter
folks you know what comes next the dreaded false flag the
atrocity and the minute there is a building blown up mass
shooting whatever you cannot wait you got to have cameras
ready you got to have your phone ready you got to go and
videotape everything and upload it and then we go over it all
forensically but we've got when they run this false flag to
stop it to expose it immediately stay with us that clip went
on longer than I intended it to but I stay with us so the the
narrative there is is soft for sure the idea of the false flag
stuff not good and like you pointed out like Obama's his
approval rating was over 50% yep right now Trump is it sitting
right around 30 36 37 and no one still bananas no one on the
left is asserting that this church shooting in Texas was a
false flag that Trump had organized or anything like that
I I know that that's a little bit ugly to even put into words
but the reason I want to do that is to mirror what other
version of Alex would be like right and trying to look at
like what how ugly how gross any buddy else than Alex doing
the things he does are it's it's unthinkable well it's
unthinkable that anybody else would do this but the polar
opposite to falsehood isn't a different type of falsehood
it's fair it's truth yeah that's true like we're we're people
who tell at least as as far as we are researched reality so we
can talk about false flags like the Lusitania probably was was
sunk as a false flag of Tonkin yeah absolutely all of these
things MK ultra is not a false flag but it is definitely
something that existed right in the fucked up CIA right but
we can also talk about how people having a lot of guns is a
bad idea and it's fine if you have like I'm I'm very anti
gun period but I get it if you hunt if you have a gun to
protect your family I get it even for fun yeah I'm I'm into
it my aunt has a gun that she just likes to take out to go
to the shooting range and feel like she has a dick for an
hour well which is that might be misogynistic of you now
okay well I think that's why most people have guns to feel like
they have a bigger dick than you know I mean I don't know if
guns or dicks I don't know if that's necessarily the case
I'm a dick I think that even in recreational purposes having
a gun is totally cool but at the same time it is a situation
where you should there should be records I would prefer if
nobody had a gun but that's not going to happen so at this
point I would prefer if nobody used a gun to murder large
groups of people at one point would it be if everybody who
hunted would went back to bow and arrow I mean it would be
much more challenge at ass yeah it would be really like I mean
if you kill something like an animal with a gun it's not
really that impressive now you take one out with a bow that's
way more impressive if you got one out with a knife you got
that's the real shit right so alive killing that bore I watched
lost I know what it's all about it always comes back so you
didn't feel that it always comes back to I didn't feel that
great when he killed that polar bear with a gun no when lock
went out there fucking took down that pig felt great yeah anyway
the point is yes we we can we can walk a middle ground because
the the reality of the world is the middle like we've already
talked on this very episode about the idea that you know
centralized banking interests are detrimental to the world
horrific but at the same time it's not that there some sort of
globalist cabal that are that are doing it I mean they are but
they're not like that's the that's the weird thing about
central banks is that they all have certain tacit agreements
that they don't necessarily talk about but there is always
going to be a oh you guys did this well fuck yeah we can do
that too right we're all going to do the same illegal shit
no no no no now saying that and jumping to Alex's version
it's it's a big leap it's a big leap so whenever you whenever
you get into the idea that there are global corporations
and there are global banks that are interested in the profit
margin interested in making as much money as they can right
we can discuss that in terms of you know regulation should be
their treaties between countries should be enforced or
country should no longer exist that's a whole other thing
that's a whole other that's a whole other that's a longer
conversation that one is far more unreasonable than the no guns
conversation but but what just to get back to my point that
the the distance between that the recognition that there are
these international corporations that are out for the bottom
line yeah and jumping to their Satanists and they want to
steal your kids out of the backyard and they drink blood
because there's adrenaline in it a little bit too far it's
it's where you it's where you ruin a legitimate conversation
yeah it's like it look I don't remember who it was but one of
the one of our listeners might have been in the chat room or
sent me a message about how through the over sensationalization
and through the fetishization and satanic panic aspects Alex
Jones is doing a disservice to the idea of the reality of
crimes against children absolutely because you're creating
this false reality where people drink blood and there's there's
there's these giant like demonic orgies and what have you
right that is not real and when you present it as what you're
up against you're never going to get the the truth that there
are horrible things that are done to children human trafficking
is massive and you're never going to get to the bottom of
that you're never going to solve that problem if you focus on
this bizarre over amplified eyes wide shut kind of reality
and it's it is it's it's what he does with the banking stuff
to it's what he does with all of these problems and you've
equated it as an unsolvable problem more or less and that's
that's another big yeah you have no power give me money yeah
give me money and I'll take care of it yeah you're not going
to fucking take care of although I did read an article which
it's it's of the best type of scientific bullshit articles
that you can read you know the the headline is insane and then
you read the article and it's like now scientists have said
this probably isn't true right but we are going to make this
huge and it was that young blood transfusions into the elderly
is a good idea I've seen some of that and it may help Alzheimer's
I've seen some articles about and it's like oh that's going
to be so good for Alex to finally get a hold of because
it's like now all old people are drinking young people's blood
but this isn't this is not a transfusion liberals liberals
not a transfusion you can't drink it that way why not because
it doesn't go into your bloodstream then that's what
they want you to write the globalists don't put that out
in the white papers look look they told you that their plan
was 15 years behind that was a false flag to get old people
to drink young people's blood okay this is all true it is it
is interesting the that that sort of stuff in the same way
that like I don't know the same way that oxygen bars were cool
for a bit in the 90s you know like there are these things
that's right there are these things that like have some
sort of like scientific intrigue and I certainly at this
point I don't think the science is in about putting young
blood in you or snot but it is interesting in that sense right
also well if Kobe Bryant can go through a European blood
transfusion treatments where they highly oxygenate his blood
why not sure whatever I don't really give a shit let's move
on I think you only like white basketball players no I love
Kobe Bryant Kobe was one of my favorites when I was younger
although I love Rex Chapman not just as a basketball player
but as a human get it get out there and solve that opioid
crisis Rex you're doing the Lord's work so also fuck you man
when I was young for no reason the New York Knicks were my
favorite team because I loved like Anthony Mason he'd shave
things on the side of his head I thought that was really cool
and all the guys would slap his bald ass head see I thought
it was I thought your favorite team would have been the Celtics
because they were the last team to integrate no also Charles
Oakley was really cool because he was that like badass enforcer
he just beat people up for no reason yep he was like that
Bill Lambier type just fuck you I mean the Knicks original
name was the Knickerbockers and we all know what that meant
isn't a theater I have no idea that's a Nickelodeon I didn't
have something to do with socks I feel like it was very
sock important it might have been anyway let's move along on
this January 6th episode what Alex Jones does for most of the
rest of the show after this point there are like maybe 15
instances of him saying that Obama said get in line with me
yeah instead of getting line with the majority of the public
opinion which again if you're going to say quote yeah you
should quote right and he's acting as if Obama said get in
line with me right and then plays the clip which I think is
unwise as a propagandist not a good idea you should not play
the clip make people search it out because you know they're
not going to course just say what you want to say and move
along yeah so he does that like 10 times probably in the episode
and I left out the other nine because I mean I could make a
super cut of him being like get in line with me yeah but I don't
have time which is an interesting thing for somebody like him
to say considering he wants everyone to get in line with
him exactly look I could make a super cut but I got I just got
a switch so I don't have time so for the rest of the episode
get in line with Mario oh God so good so good Mario Odyssey is
the best there are also shades of the Odyssey in it so great is
that why it's called Mario Mario Odyssey I don't think so
because there aren't like a bunch of suitors trying to get
peach that would be awesome that would be amazing that would be
awesome if you had boo and Bowser and like a piranha plant
that's very that's very important into in Super Mario RPG
right is the Odyssey is yes how maybe
I think you're just making that up anyway this the rest of
this show Alex Jones is visited by a guy who believes three
goes in lizards okay David Ike all right there we go David
Ike makes a little comeback and it's a really long interview
and it's not important but I just have a few clips so here's
the first one where he's giving David Ike a little bit of an
introduction and gets he gets a little off track. We've had
David Ike scheduled for months now and and he's a big guest
and I like him he's he's a big open free thinker sure that's
how I guess I'm glad he's coming on but but I am going to
play this dictator clips he that he's referring just to that
same Obama clip yeah we played dictator cups yeah he's gonna
take your guns coming up briefly we need funds great we're
under attack constantly which I'm not complaining about complain
basically I'm getting stabbed politically all the time and
blood's pouring out stabbed politically so before he gets
he gets through this ad it's a little bit I mean it's always
a long ad yeah but before David Ike comes in he has to brag
about his own place in the world a little bit and it
always under attack it furthers this being being co-opted
through flattery theory that I believe is the key I think
that's the entire story of Alex Jones that if 20 years ago
Bill Clinton had courted Alex that I would be entirely most
liberal he never would have listened to Larry Nichols it
was although if Bill Clinton had courted him he would instead
be a triangular center centrist Democrat and we all know how
damaging that could be this podcast would still exist but
it'd be very different you you and I would just switch shares
that would really be the entire thing that's I'd be like
an alternate reality mother fucking centrist piece of shit
and you're like now hold on I'm like I can't believe I can't
believe this guy exists it'd be a struggle for about six months
and then we both descend into similar insanity yeah but you
know be fascinating though to like if they had done that's
the story of our friendship it was a struggle for the first
six months and then we descended into the same first six
months we didn't even talk to each other no I know and it
was it was made it was very weird because we the first time
we met we were like oh I'm going to talk to you for the next
six hours and and then we didn't see each other for like six
months that's low that's low anyway one day we'll do a how
we met podcast I don't think that's a good idea if we're
gonna have to get Larry Nichols on for that one oh let's have
him on as a guest it just forced him to listen to us now
that's the new game plan that's the new the new yeah the next
time we call Larry Nichols we just talk over him no no no
not even that we can we come up with like a couple things
like that like how we met like these these things that are of
no interest to anyone and we have Larry Nichols on the phone
for them that would be so amazing Larry Nichols no I know
you're in Nicaragua how do you think Dan and I's friendship
started so we were doing some comedy now now I think it's the
way that most friendships dot now the Sinclair brothers had us
I can't remember their names so here Alex is bragging and it
is again indicative that if you just flatter him that's all
you need to do yeah I mean you know we've got mad drudge
listening pretty much every day I mean told me listen every
day I'm flattered we've got I know for a fact a lot of the
Russian high command government people Vladimir Putin reported
listens and likes the show I was told this years ago lies
shouldn't be so critical of Putin about you know this and
that you know he likes your show that I was like a right till
I heard it from a bunch of high level Russians and now media
they have in Russia time of vaccines will kill you know
cancer's way up because a glyphosate we're banning GMO
it's a global warming's a global government carbon tax to
destroy nation states and kill billions I mean it's not just
that you know they're Alex Jones listeners they are tuning
into the reality it makes sense to them and then they learn
more and then they basically get outside the box it's very
exciting so that that's damning in any way critical of Putin
right and then I was like I'm going to keep being critical
of Putin until I found out he loves likes me right so I was
like well clearly Putin's right course wow yeah that's dumb
on does he realize how dummy is I don't think he knows what
he's saying yeah that's probably true like is that that clip
indicates that he's aware of the trajectory like he's aware of
the fact that like I was critical of Putin right and then high
and Russians told me not to because he loves because he loves
the show and then now all I do is talk about how the globalists
want to take out Putin when I mean if you really look at the
reality of it is especially as it relates to the oligarch
situation right Alex's narrative is completely off in terms
of that he didn't kick out oligarchs he he installed better
ones for him right or the ones who are already there just he
took some of their money right let them main to it's a mafia
right that's like that's like if you argue so the did you see
the news about the Saudi prince yeah yeah right up right now
if you want to if you pull yeah explain a little bit for the
whole case because that that's so vague that is a very big thing
so yeah so a one of the Saudi princes just had a huge shit ton
of oligarchs arrested another prince and another prince his
uncle yeah arrested for corruption charges and a bit of what
appears to be a coup yeah exactly so if you're going to say
like that's like saying Putin got rid of the oligarchs like
no he got rid of some oligarchs and he is keeping the ones
that he likes no he bond the same way that this Saudi prince
is getting rid of the oligarchs who he doesn't like and he's
just going to install different ones putin bombed a bunch of
apartment buildings in 1999 seized power kicked out oligarchs
that wouldn't play ball played ball with the rest of them but
did a massive crackdown on the media yeah and then started
killing all of his detractors not all of them but a bunch of
them a lot of so like that I mean that track record is there
and now it's can pretend that oh look you got to see both sides
because he likes me right now let's fucking talk about the
other bullshit who has time to listen to him every day I know
I do a podcast about him every day and I don't listen to him
every day like just putin have three fucking hours to listen
to this bullshit every day horse nobody drudge doesn't listen
to this every day at best at best putin has a guy he's hired
to listen to alex jones every day maybe only in case like he
says something where we got to take him out yeah exactly like
that or or like just got to get a jelly polonium dart to shoot
at him or whatever moderate monitor him to make sure he
doesn't go too far and then if he does all well and then it
will be fine again right like he's he's he's not listening
now monitoring possibly at best farmed out far about monitor
yeah yeah so this this whole this whole idea that he had like
that people keep telling him we listen every day we love you all
this stuff it's it's so influential right to him he's just
he's drinking the Kool-aid right remind me what hours are
does he does he run a show in Russia
that's a good point that's a good point isn't it seems pretty
a pretty simple math to do you know what I would also say is
like I don't think the Internet is as free and Russia as it is
here very much not so I'm not sure that they would have access
to his show and it's not slightly less free than the Internet
and China yeah and I don't think that they like I don't think
info wars airs terrestrially on radio in China oh you don't
either either no I don't think so I don't know I think the guy
who runs his Chicago station definitely has Matt do be a yeah
Matt do be a definitely has a few Russian stations I told you
this yesterday yeah true comedy in the the November 4th
Antifa coverage Matt do be a the guy who hosts who owns a radio
station in the Chicago suburbs that airs Alex Jones and Alex
and passes had him on the show and says like you know you're
airing it in the third biggest city in America it the signal
doesn't reach Chicago no it's just in the suburbs and whatever
so he came on the November 4th broadcast with Rob do and it
turns out that his signal was down the morning of November
4th and he wasn't on air yeah oh no Rob do was like this is
probably sabotage because they know that you air info wars
of course they were probably trying to take it down no other
explanation had to be a was like there was a big storm last
night there's a bunch of other stuff they could it could be
some sort of a coincidence I don't know there you know there's
there's other stations I don't know and Rob do is like probably
sabotage yeah that's like I was watching it like guys pre show
pre show and interview get it together every late night show
as a pre show interview those aren't improvised conversations
guys well and like even if you like Alex Jones what he has a
boner for not having a teleprompter and all that I
understand of course you want things to be natural in
germane and we do the same thing but at the same time if
you're going to have a guy calling in they're going to build
a false narrative off right in the break talk to him and be
like play along or or yeah I mean he's a radio station owner
like you know you know you and I can go off teleprompter
because we have years of comedy improv experience behind us I
don't have that much improv not improv but like comedy I just
general freeze up be a be a heckler get it be a heckler
freeze up that you freeze in no need for the scene anyways.
What the point the point being he's just a guy you know what I
like in it to I like in it to whenever like you're playing a
softball game and there's a hit and as soon as the ball is in
the air someone will yell plays at second or something like
that so everyone knows get the ball to second if you catch it
okay you know that because you sometimes you forget where the
runners are and in the commercial break Rob do just be like
plays at second right this is what we're going right this is
what we're going to suggest now you don't have to say you were
sabotaged but we're going to suggest it also.
I get it he runs info wars on his radio show yeah he syndicates
it or never does not listen to info wars Rob do so he's not
going to jump in with your is really yeah he seems committed
see now that's he's crazy he's hosted the fourth hour a couple
times really yeah wow and he still doesn't know how to run
with the narrative I feel like you should be able to jump in at
that point those who can do those who can't teach or own radio
stations yeah one of the two so anyway I told you this is an
interview with David Ike and here is an unfortunate clip of
David Ike saying what is talking about the globalists and what
they're doing but it actually in hindsight really applies to
Alex Jones can I call him Dick van Ike from now on if you want
to I feel good about that or well in global states in which
you have 24 seven surveillance and that your freedoms are
basically zero now to bring that in you can't just come out
and say okay without a meeting this is what we're going to do
you have to create in the public mind the reasons why you're
doing it and because those reasons are not genuine you have
to make them up in other words you are bringing in your global
fascist system by lying and lying and lying man I love that
last part I love that you're bringing in a global fascist
state by lying and lying and lying if you isolated that
clip because he's using the second person and talking to Alex
I 100% agree with it because that's where we're heading how
do these guys these guys now he has to believe don't judge
David I'm confused don't judge David I don't know his name
David Ike do you mean dick like they don't don't blame dick
van Ike what's wrong with dick van Ike look I think he has
he's beholden to anti-Semitic ideas and he certainly believes
the protocols of the elders is I on is real you're not selling
me on not blaming him he is a bit of an anti-Semite but I
think he's mentally ill like okay in a way that Alex isn't
his qualifications again he had a weird experience when he was
in Peru I think and he was on a mountaintop and we got frozen
in place and had a bunch of things downloaded into him through
the I just I just wanted to remind myself exactly why it is
I can't blame him the reason that I say don't blame him as
much is because I honestly think to a certain extent from the
times I've heard him on info wars that he's like not thrilled
to be there like not that he doesn't like Alex or anything
like that but he's just like I'm on some other shit and fine
I'll play along there is a global oppressive system and what
have you right but it's aliens right he's he's he doesn't want
to jump into the Trump or whatever bullshit he wants to be
like Raptors he it's it's unclear he's he's good with it in
terms of the Trump stuff right as a as it disrupts the system
right but he's not in the same vein as Alex and I look I don't
think it's the difference between a crazy pundit and a
propagandist Alex Jones is a propagandist because he's
working towards a specific goal I think David Ike is a crazy
pundit because I think he's brain damaged but at the same
time a lot of the stuff he says is really relevant a lot of
the stuff that he says is it makes sense some of the points
behind it in terms of self empowerment on this episode he
talks about a lot about the idea of a shadow self and a real
self and there's some like just self improvement ideas that he
has they're like I'm cool with that so you're you're smart
enough to dissuade like your argument for not blaming him
has something to do with like you disentangled he's just he's
trying is that your argument for why I shouldn't blame him no
you disentangle the parts of it that are clear like there's
brain damage here yeah and some of the ideas are okay and
pretty good right I believe that a lot of the stuff that he
says that are that's real fucked up and negative especially
the space lizards the protocols that sort of stuff not great
I think a lot of that comes out of brain damage I think it's
much more clear when you look at him and and most thinking
people can look at him and he's like he believes there are
legit shape shifting space lizards and have you yeah it's
much easier to look at him and be like I'm gonna fucking either
not listen to you or discount those parts of you whereas like
and he's not working towards a specific goal right then I guess
self preservation no self aggrandizement no no no no no
not for himself but for you he's like a motivational speaker
in many ways in terms of self actualization so you're fine
with his nonsense not fine with his nonsense but you're fine
with him as a human being so long as his nonsense comes from
an altruistic place no is that what you're saying no because
he I mean he's a con man in a lot of ways through through just
the need because you need to have people throw you money and
stuff when you're a crazy pundit talking about aliens yeah but
at any point in his career he could have done what Alex has
done he could have settled down done a radio show and started
selling weird supplements and probably made a fucking killing
off it instead he's written a bunch of books and he's gone out
and submitted to public scrutiny in a way that most people
would not allow like he goes and does lectures and stuff like
that where people mock him and attack him and just like you're
a dumb dumb so you admire his chutzpah somewhat it's not it's
not even just that it's that look I believe that Alex Jones
what motivates him in a large part does come from mental illness
yeah and it comes from a place of like deprivation as a child
feeling of it feelings of alienation certain sex placed those
sorts of things yeah absolutely and for some reason David
likes are less offensive to me I don't understand like I did
not think we would launch into a I'm gonna defend David that's
always my favorite you know what you know my favorite
conversations are when you wind up defending something where
you're like I don't know if I want to do this I don't know why
I'm doing this somehow I am doing no I do I do think I do I do
believe so it's a matter of degree of mental illness then
that is that what you're describing to me well and also
like he's crazy enough to not be responsible for his action
well no it's not even crazy enough to not be responsible for
the actions what I think is this this might be weird but it's
what popped into my head and I think I think it might be where
I draw the line okay Alex Jones with a little bit of self
awareness and good decision-making could go to therapy
and work through some of these issues I don't think David I
could I think he has brain damage okay and I think that the
brain damaged part of him is the part that is and maybe this
is blue sky thinking on my part yeah rose colored glasses I
think that the brain damage is the part that believes in the
protocols of the elders of Zion the part that believes in
juice space lizards and what have you right and what I choose
to believe and again I might be wrong yeah is that the other
part the pretty empowering the pretty self actualizing
motivational speaker part right is the part that could have
been there all along but I also don't think that whatever he
has going on therapy could ever help okay I believe Alex
could be helped maybe not now but in the past at some point
okay I think David like probably hit his head alright the
this is a huge conversation to have I got you realize how big
you just you just opened this up to it you just open it okay
so now we're getting into I mean like the first thing I
thought whenever you were talking about brain damage and its
extent to personal responsibility let's try and keep this
conversation within like the next 15 I know I'm going to try
but the first thought I had was fucking Aaron Hernandez and
Chris Benoit you know what I'm saying which which is an
interesting conversation in as far as like how how much can you
hold these guys responsible for brain damage which is clearly
what was going on right like there's clearly brain damage like
any NFL player yet the brain damage did end up murdering
people exactly yeah like at a certain point it's really hard
to hold any NFL player accountable for their actions simply
because clearly your brain is damaged can I can I take a step
back and sort of refine the argument please do I think once
you're legitimately harming other people my argument falls
apart right because I don't I don't think that I'm speaking
specifically in terms of espousing beliefs right as opposed to
killing your family but you know like there's there's a slight
difference there I agree at least in terms of intensity or
valence right like there is a but see then you get into the
then you get into the concept of what ultimately is more
damaging like what is what is more damaging somebody with a
mental with brain damage like Chris Benoit or somebody with
brain damage like Alex Jones who has influenced so many more
people in such a larger negative way you're right you're right
as opposed to a smaller more focused negative you know what
destroys my argument because I'm just reflecting a tiny me no
and the past the past of our podcast where we documented brain
damage on Alex's right right this whole thing falls apart
my I think that I get why you're sentimental about that's what
I hear it's not sentiment I hear sent it's not sentimentality
okay what it is is I think that David Ike is less noxious I
think that there is more that can be gained right from him then
Alex for sure well that's I think if you listen to his
lectures right there I have I've listened to a bunch of them
and there's a bunch of nonsense right at the same time there's
a bunch of stuff that's like well it's good but well that's like
I mean that is also why we have a soft spot for the Penn
Dragons wife and Kerry Cassidy right right you know they're
they're damaging they're hurtful but god damn it if they don't
believe that they're good people and act like good people for
the most part they just espouse such anti-semitic ideas you're
right you're like I don't understand how to reconcile those
two you know yeah I think I think in the end you're probably
right I still want to hold on to whether it's right or wrong
that David Ike is not nearly as bad as Alex and I on a on a
purely statistical level I agree with you but I also in terms
of like I don't think that David Ike has a goal in mind that's
nefarious right I think Alex does whether or not he believes
it's nefarious or not like David Ike just wants you to
fucking recognize that everything is bullshit he wants you to
like wake up right the TV is brainwashing right and stuff
like that and we're having a we're having a con versus
Kierkegaard conversation is what we're having right now
gotcha more or less yeah anyway which is why it's riveting
podcasting now let me say this it's appropriate that you and I
have embarked on this conversation god damn it your
transitions are amazing let's go because in this next clip
Alex Jones is struggling with the fact that he agrees with
David Ike on so much stuff because Alex knows that David
Ike talks about space lizards all the time in one right and so
this next clip is him just being like ah shit I agree with
David Ike him getting close to being like oh am I an idiot
listen to this shit I mean it's like childhoods in I'm not
saying it's aliens I'm not you saying it's interdimensional
whatever probably I mean it's just so obvious it's out to
destroy us it's anti-human archetype whatever it's evil
aliens want to get us I mean you know I'm not saying that
you're saying that the point is is that it doesn't matter so
alright so he's just going back and forth like I'm not
saying you're saying that shit yeah okay I believe it's
aliens but I believe it's human aliens and you're like
to a to a less reasonable extent that is a facsimile of
the conversation we just had yeah exactly exactly they just
they have a they you got to give it to some sort of weird
intuitive ethics conversation of like okay so long as we're
talking about aliens I can have a reasonable conversation
with you right right because that's what it really is with
them is like as long as we are taking it out of the real
world where I don't have any emotional investment in or if
I if I don't have a team you know if your team is pro human
then you just start talking about reasonable shit as opposed
to you know which is why which is why science fiction has
has always had a an easier time of allegory you know and so
many direct ones you know science fiction is predictive
programming it's the dreams of a man will Shakespeare what
else would it be so that the show goes on day he has a long
interview with David Ike and and to be clear most of it is
not really all that worthwhile garbage it's not garbage it's
fine it's just it is what it is it's David like but it's David
like spot like putting out his positions and right trying to
relate it to Trump yeah and it's just it's not that good so
we move on now to January 7th the next day is a Thursday and
he's moved on from his get in line with me misquoting and
now it's get in line with me not a quote and misquote yeah and
so here is here is where he goes the next day it's Thursday
7th day of January 2016 if the speaker of the house will not
move immediately to begin impeachment proceedings against
Barack Hussein Obama and we must move to impeach the speaker
of the house because he's aiding and abetting the enemy of this
constitutional republic huge broadcast lined up for you today
this is back on his main right guys of impeachment so a couple
no this was still Ryan this is Ryan how long has he been
speaker of the house just like a year and a half I feel like he
should be dead by now well here's the thing the only reason I
know it's Paul Ryan is because in the narrative that we've been
going over with Alex yeah Boehner was the speaker and Alex
pretended that all of these patriot tea party types got
ripped out and we got Ryan and he knows he's got a play ball
he knows he knows where the power is right and now he's like
shit now he's the same guy yeah he's except dumber somehow
younger and dumber Paul Ryan is somehow dumber than John Boehner
isn't that such a disappointment to all of us Boehner kind of
knows where the bread butter is yeah or as Alex does not but
also Boehner doesn't fake cry he's just a wussy yeah whereas
Alex in there too the thing I wanted to point out was the
the impeachment zeitgeist is another one of his attempts to
create like a catchphrase yeah like he's doing now with the
get tomorrow's news today today or get get next year's news
today well he does all of it he does various time yeah yeah
yeah but that was another attempt to the impeachment zeitgeist
so that's not good no it's gonna never gonna catch on it's
gonna cover a couple episodes this is another thing I wanted to
make a super cut of but I didn't because it would be too
difficult I bought a switch so
okay all right I buy it I'm gonna play you this clip and
keep in mind that he says this eight times throughout the
show okay 75 times Obama broke the law during his presidency
and I'm going to go over this today no matter what happens
and I was reading the 75 this morning and I had forgotten
so many of the blatant caught red stinking handed crime
I mean it is just over the top so from a constitutional
scholar there is a that guy definitely committed all the
crime there's a kit Daniels article I believe about Obama
75 crimes he committed well and 75 crimes Alex in that clip
says I'm going to get to this no matter what he's he gets
through all 75 do you think he even got to one I think he
says one nope not even one man he should have gotten to one
Anthony Gucci already supposed to do the fourth hour he calls
in six or Rob do does it Alex Jones hands off the baton
without ever talking about this article he says over and over
again I'm gonna get to this article he's like we're gonna get
to this no matter what I'm gonna stay here if I have to the
whole time never gets to even one no spectacular and in there
he says like I was reading this he didn't fucking read it
of course not no you read the headline so I was reading this
I didn't even remember how many of these so blatant I didn't
even remember them first of all because they did not happen
second I did not read this article and third I'm Alex Jones
get Daniels wanted me to pimp this article so I'm gonna I'm
gonna mention it a couple times if we can get clicks up
does kick Daniels think he's Martin Luther is no the seventy
five crimes thirty five theses did he paint them on the wall
or something yeah might as well of yeah so I told you at the
beginning of this episode that I watched the live stream of the
January sorry November 4th and Tifa protests right whenever the
communists took over indeed and there was a lot of 1488 there
was a lot of Nazi Nazis messages a lot of kill the Jews
messages in the room and some of that you've got to account to
trolls certainly I'm not gonna say that every single one of them
was sincere but boy it was a lot of people it was a lot of
people and let's listen to this next clip with that in our
mind and man they are the most evil enemy by
the global thousands and thousands of percentage points I
mean Hitler what about him was a moral good person compared to
these people and Hitler was super dark super evil now this
clip goes on but you could have picked so many different
comparisons totally why'd you choose Hitler I don't know is it
because you kind of like Hitler well like every time these
guys choose Hitler it's always to make Hitler look better he
also notice that he's also doing like I didn't I don't want to
say this before the clip plays but I might as well he's doing
a little bit of Hitler apology in this in this clip course I
mean anytime the your rhetoric is like these people like Hitler
is great compared to them yeah it's generally softening or yeah I
mean the name of the clip I have here is Alex is soft on
Hitler just he's a soft no on Hitler but listen to this listen
to this shit oh god also there's a ton of long pauses because
you can see in his face like should I be saying Hitler's okay
well you know sometimes like I was feeling it during that David
like conversation is like I've launched into something I
probably shouldn't have I don't know if I have the skills
right now to get through this there's a look on his face of
like I know the point I'm trying to make but I is his live
I don't know it's the journey not the destination and I do not
know how I'm gonna get there I'm wandering and there's a lot of
long pauses along the way like Odysseus but Hitler loved the
UK loved it loved a few other Norse countries
liked a group he associated with he had some love twisted for
one group you know he loved his dog but enjoyed torturing
people to death he was horrible the globalist hate humanity
as a whole where's long beyond Hitler beyond Hitler way beyond
Hitler yeah Hitler again picked up eugenics technology out of
England and the United States the eugenics system
belief system good point eugenics social control
pop eugenics the real eugenics he went far with it he was
told implemented we back you we support you Rockefeller
Foundation Margaret Sanger Planned Parenthood all of them
nope hosted Nazi rallies hosted Ku Klux Klan rallies you can
pull up pictures of Margaret Sanger hosting giant Nazi
rallies with the German bond in America we've talked about that
folks they endorsed him they say I'm that's his narrative
Hitler was a false flag patsy yeah wow well I mean that's
that's I mean we've gone over that even like that's his
narrative that's his narrative the then globalist maybe the
proto globalists can't we all just find one thing to agree on
not and that's that Hitler was bad apparently not there's
unequivocally there's no we just all like from as a starting
point for it maybe that's the issue with human beings is we
can't even agree on how bad genocide is well that's the
issue with his chat room I'll tell you that right now as someone
who experienced it but no the thing is what he's talking
about is he's conflating all sorts of things like with all
sorts of like the Tavistock Institute versus the Tavistock
Clinic he gets all these things mixed up yeah but with the
Margaret Sanger and Planned Parenthood stuff like you can
find a picture of her in front of a clan rally and she went
there and she talked and then she was like no thank you goodbye
because her mission was about women's reproductive rights
and she's like there are racist women they still need there's
still women yeah they still need they still need health care
and that is such a fucking crazy misrepresentation of like you
were saying through the clip yep there is truth to the idea
that Hitler got a lot of ideas from America and the West yeah
absolutely but then to take it to this is about Planned
Parenthood and Margaret Sanger right that's the dis that's
the disingenuous leap right that's the that's the propaganda
leap that Alex makes that's like that's what we talked about
they get the beginning of the episodes like yeah like you went
from a conversation that should be had that should be taught in
schools the idea that Hitler didn't act in a vacuum right the
idea that he didn't come up with hating the Jews by himself
no the ideas existed certainly for thousands of years yeah
because of them because there are many exoduses through
countries and the men and has really hold on what about the
what about the Canaanites you try to show my people you know
like grandpa was a man in a picture just all right did you know
that I did know that why you talked about that turn fuck with
the men because I thought it would be funny man nights are
good people sure but like it's the it's the it's it's this
fascinating weird it's almost I was going to try and relate it
somehow to the uncanny valley but that's not not going to work
but like there is this this area where Alex is like he knows
a good point and then makes it bad right there is just like
that well and it goes back to stuff that I keep saying that
you disagree with and and I might disagree with in other other
context but like there is the opportunity I see and I mean of
course it never has happened and never will happen but like
there's the constant opportunity to be the hero like he could
have at any point been like I see a problem yeah and assessed
it more intellectually actually read the articles that he talks
about how could he but those sorts of things where he could
have been like an actually good voice right and been like he
could have shaped the skeptic conspiracy community I know
those are two different communities but like he could have
shaped a lot of the perceptions that those people have in a
much more healthy much more reasonable way right as opposed
to the the race baiting the bigotry the anti liberal
bashing that he does now doesn't make as much money and that
shit gets you killed like I would have got him killed no it
would not have made of the money I was I was thinking more
specifically of like Margaret Sanger went and did talk to the
KKK women yeah not you know the men weren't they don't need
on board yeah but but it is like that is an important thing
totally with the the conversation that was always had during
so many different elections is like would you have a diplomatic
meeting with North Korea with no restrictions or whatever
would you have a diplomatic meeting or fucking Fred Hampton
a the I mean if you want to talk about Chicago the patron
state of Chicago should be Fred Hampton yeah and his genius
was he went and talked to everybody he went and talked to
white supremacist groups Fred Hampton black Panther leader
yeah went and talked to white supremacist groups and you know
what he talked about he talked about shit the same way that
everybody would talk about shit and the point is that he would
communicate with them in a way that they could understand
they have a parlay that is a really important thing you know
the old adage of like we don't make peace with our friends
we make peace with our enemies is very true and yet at the same
time if you wanted to be a dick you could pull up a picture
of Fred Hampton talking to white supremacists and be like look
see this guy's a white supremacist totally and like there's no
there's no win if you do that if people are so obsessed with
fighting a war regardless of who it's against regardless of
how many people die regardless of the loss of how it's fought
exactly it's going to be something that you use against
them yeah totally which is why Kissinger should be killed
again oh boy is he still alive he's alive kill him also there
there's an appropriate analog in this like time frame of Alex
January 2016 because he went and he talked to Lewis Farrakhan
right and the entire time it's mostly just trying to score
points I've listened to most of the interview so spoiler alert
we will go over it but most of the stuff that Alex ends up playing
is the stuff that is like that makes him look good and Trump
yeah he uses it as like a bolstering Trump thing right and
and so like that's not legitimate conversation with the people
who disagree with you of course that's trying to use them as a
prop now I'm not here to defend Lewis Farrakhan either like I'm
not I'm not he's no David Ike
all right but you know you know I kind of know what you're saying
all right anyway let's let's get on to this I'm a I'm a fan
icon I'm a Farrakhan fan yeah he seems like a nice guy no I mean
in the same way that you know David Ike has a bunch of good points
Lewis Farrakhan does too absolutely he espouses a lot of good
self-reliance points a lot of self-empowerment yeah exactly
what I was saying about David Ike white genocide I'm all for it
soft on that but at the same time he is a crazy anti-semitic
bigot yeah which is the same thing as David Ike is I know we're starting
to track a theme also I it's I you know I was aware of it and
I've said this so many times now it is really hard to get away
now from the knowledge that just about everything these
crazy people believe eventually boils down to hating the Jews
whether or not that is their primary motivation it's somewhere in
there and they don't even they don't even necessarily always know
that or they don't think it's important yeah they like I think
that a lot of people particularly a lot of those folks who are
probably in that chat room probably just think it's like duh
yeah of course yeah you hate the Jews or Jews are evil Jesus
etc now not all Jews but it's most Jews yeah that sort of thing
yeah I mean it but look at this look at this so David Ike is on
the show and though I think he has some good points to make about
self-actualization all right all right right so for life he is
beholden to the protocols of the Elders of Zion and has a lot
of anti-semitic beliefs he is a guest on Alex Jones's show now
think about the two stunt interviews that Alex has done in the
last gear of us covering him there's David Duke and Louis Farrakhan
right what are the two of them having common super against the Jews
right interesting you know interesting I interesting I really
wish the unabomber was still around because he would be an amazing
guest on it was he anti-semitic who cares he would be an amazing guest
on info right I think Alex you would have been an incredible guest
on info or Alex is distrustful of social media although he loves to
use it and brag about his numbers loves people in the middle of
nowhere it's true on the land unabomber knew where to hide his
fucking guns I'll tell you that land he's living on the land that's
important because he was also living on the land he was but it's
more important that he's on the land yeah because we're about to
get to another interview there's a guy named Joel Scousen who's on
the show now not a fan of his name no he's no manhousen or whatever
is man cow man guy Mandelson no Mandelson the the right Lord
Mandelson the right Lord Mandelson so Joel Scousen comes on the
show and ostensibly the interview is about the Bundy's because at
this point in January of 2016 this is when they were occupying it
they had taken over the wildlife refuge none of there was only one
guy killed right yeah there was that finnigan or something like
that yeah I remember his name but yeah yeah but it was it was his
fault imagine it was his fault no it was so his fault but imagine
if Native Americans had taken over they would all have been dead
they would all have been murdered or so fast or at least way more
of them seriously injured yeah like I mean take death out of it there
would have been no no negotiation right it would have been a shit
ton of cops but that's what we come back to over and over again is
the idea of white behavior being like and then minority behavior
being criminalized absolutely that's what you you you look at the
difference between how the Bundy ranch not the ranch they stand off
at the wildlife preserve how that was treated versus the the people
at the pipeline the Native Americans the pipeline and and the
people at the wildlife preserve they they let them hang out there
and I can do whatever for like a week I know I don't even remember
how long it lasted no one no one at the pipeline had a gun
no one at the pipeline had a gun and that's why they got hose should
they have had a shit ton of guns no they would have been killed are
we leaning towards maybe everybody should have guns no I don't think
so because that it's it's a fallacy that that helps yeah I know
because it was with everybody should have white skin minorities it
leads to escalation yeah with white people it's like calm down
everybody calm down all right new plan be cool most practical
plan all right you know the skin color crayon yeah you know how
it's white skin color right okay let's just draw white skin on
everybody talking about a scandal that happened in the fucking
early 90s I know and look and I know almost no time I know that
that was a terrible decision I know that the dove advertising
campaign wherein they were hugely racist Paul Joseph Watson had
an interesting report about that I can't imagine how you would say
the word interesting and have it make sense it wasn't good so
anyway Joel Scousen is on and they're talking about the Bundy's
yeah let's just move past my white face idea right so here is
where he says something that is in the vein of Roger Stone wanting
to regulate Twitter and apparently David Knight has now come out
talking about regulating Facebook excellent those are good ideas
and we should apply them to the tech industry as a whole and
that wait no they didn't say that no of course not and I think
that's what ranchers need so that water rights cannot be taken away
that managed arbitrarily by the BLM if they were to come out
with a proposal like this saying this is what we want and then
stand down they would have the high ground people would say yeah
they're not a bunch of crazies well they are crazy but what he's
what he's espousing is largely unionization yeah or regulating
yep those are and it goes back to the same thing we see over and
over again I'm against this until it touches me when it touches me
fuck you yeah yeah it's so it's like it's nonsense and the
argument is incredibly difficult for us to have because sure
like our position is right yeah that makes sense yeah makes sense
we don't team sport it no and and and it's like it's like the
farmers being able to get together and unionize for shared
interest makes total sense oh of course Monsanto should be
burned to the ground absolutely yeah not against that in any
way I'm not against even the idea of of of having regulation
about what the government can regulate right in terms of
water rights or land rights or anything like that but it they
are like print yeah until it bothers them right and that's
so frustrating because it's not a conversation you can have it's
the same thing where we're like if Alex Jones were to listen to
this podcast and come at us there would be so much you guys
support Hillary and your dams your dumb liberals and stuff like
that and we'd be like did you listen to the show we're liberals
sure but it you know the it's it's it we're we're too slippery
and nuanced to fight back against a concrete thing that they
do it's it that the idea of a it's so that's one of the big
things that that always gets to me is like regulation is bad
until it bothers me yeah and which case regulation is good
like hey the people when when regulation works in your favor
like right hey you think things are fair oh it's great it's
great dumb liberal snowflake yeah yeah it's it's always
they they the the demonization of progressives is a a million
fold and that's mainly because every part of that demonization
is obfuscating what it is we actually stand for right like
with Antifa totally you can't be against Antifa they're
against fascism right their name is anti fascism the only
way to be against it is to create a straw man exactly of
or and and you can imply that their name is ill advised like
in Australia the Liberal Party is our conservatives right
you know that kind of a thing right it's the same thing in
Sweden right exactly yeah but it's it's so long as you don't
know what we believe how what we will believe will affect you
and so on and so forth so long as you combine us with the
communists from soviet Russia so long as you combine us with
all of these things and so long as it sounds like it makes
sense you will believe anything that damages yourself totally
when it finally does damage you all of a sudden you're like
you know these progressives have some good ideas except when
they apply to anything other than when they apply to me
like it's well you're a but also Intel like a depression
happens and then you're like well all right it turns out
everybody really liked the new deal whenever they couldn't eat
yeah it's crazy how democratic socialism kicked ass whenever
people starve to death yep yep amazing an important lesson
amazing totally it's a good thing we learned it yeah wait
what not not really I'm sorry no no really Sandra Bollocks
hold on so we got we got Joel Scowsen trying to make this
this argument and that's fine I mean you know we we wrestle a
little bit with hearing an argument we're kind of okay with
in that context but it's it's our it's our Achilles heel yeah
so Joel Scowsen has some other things that he has to say on
this episode and him and Alex get into having a conversation
about selling weapons into Syria and okay the take on it is
interesting because Alex's whole narrative is that Hillary has
a digital Dropbox and what have you these are back in the glory
days of the digital Dropbox and she basically is just selling
arms to whoever wants to buy them anybody and Joel Scowsen
has a slightly different take on it that I think is interesting
and I actually maybe kind of agree with him if I can make one
caveat that I will at the end of this clip okay
if they're getting old decommissioned missiles listen
these things are locked away tighter than a drum and old
military bases in the U.S. they have to be trans shipped out of
there across the ocean or Turkey or Saudi Arabia I mean who's
kidding who that they said we know we did it through the
State Department the Pentagon wouldn't well I'm not saying that
Hillary would know what's going on in the dark side of
the government she's a puppet of the dark side but you know
typically Obama or Hillary or even George W. Bush didn't know
what the dark side of government was doing I mean this is too
dangerous to let Politicos know about you know dark side
operations they need plausible deniability Alex
so Joel Scowsen when confronted with the idea that Hillary is
selling weapons goes immediately to deep state nonsense
well but Alex does deep state nonsense too but right
Joel Scowsen's argument is come on man no of course not
she won't know about that stuff now here's the caveat I'm
gonna make it's dangerous for all of us if she knows about
it you know who it's not dangerous for though Alex Jones
Blackwater that's the caveat I would make interesting point
seeing that Eric Prince and Blackwater have both both
organization and a guy who runs organization yeah have been
monster and monstrous have been fingered in terms of running
weapons in two countries where it's illegal to sell them right
and poorly guilty of atrocities and slaughtering civilians
absolutely it makes sense like and the clitoris is half an inch
higher than you think it's going to be you're just pushing up
against the urethra quarter you're just pushing up against
the urethra okay you mispronounced that urethra
apologies I'd like a written apology to us I will write an
apology to push so like what I'm what I'm hearing from that
clip if you take away the premise that is tons like the
government is selling these missiles to all these countries
right if you just let that sit for a second right his idea that
Hillary wouldn't know about that stuff that you know people
have got to be protected from that in terms of plausible
deniability yes politicians or puppets blah blah blah blah
yeah that stuff I definitely I agree I don't think that Reagan
necessarily knew everything that was going on in Iran Contra
I don't know if Reagan knew at that point at that point anything
but you know what I'm saying like even if he had all his
faculties right I don't I don't think that he would have been
yeah the people who are like he didn't he showed early signs
of dementia in offices like oh do you mean he was fucking
insane because that's what it sounds like you mean right
right anyways yes but like of course of course there are
factions at play and stuff doesn't that doesn't that seem
just too like a movie though like the idea of history sort of
bears it out I know that is the frustrating part yeah there
do seem to be like I mean the CIA in in JFK times right in
times of trying to recruit a tight Castro Cuban and they
tried to kill Castro like 300 times yeah absolutely and JFK
was not necessarily aware of all of those efforts there were
machinations behind too busy fucking totally too busy fucking
what who could blame him he was a playboy that's a that's a
good question Dan yeah but one of the great questions of our
time sure who can play who can blame him who killed J are the
only question I could pick up it was Maggie Simpson everybody
does I was trying to think of like also from that era type
questions like I don't remember when Dallas was on I have no idea
it's all before I was born I love I love the fact that we're
weird enough to pull out a Dallas reference which was 20 years
before we were born yeah yeah but it made its mark you know much
like save the cheerleader save the world people making that
reference 20 years from now that's true no they won't I doubt it
but like look I I I don't know maybe I'm trying to guilt the
Lilly a little bit just so I can make my argument that I think
what Joel Scousen is talking about his black water like or
those sort of sort of military contractor it seems like those
would be the people who have access to high grade munitions
and what which is their entire which is the entire point of
their existence is they are not under federal oversight so you
can it's like money laundering scam total the same thing but
with guns and if Joel Scousen is saying Hillary wouldn't be
involved in this who would that's the next question a real
journalist would ask Alex doesn't write he just wants to go
back to Hillary like okay so if Hillary wasn't involved with
this how was Hillary involved with this and she was totally
involved with this right are you trying to tell me the digital
dropbox was for cat videos actual answer me actually yeah
actually yeah those are hilarious that's all 33,000 of the
emails that got deleted have you seen have you seen the small
cat who when you rub his belly he's like so close and then you
go away and he's like wasn't that cat named socks who care
socks the cat the one who plays the piano no the tiny little
kitten that did the thing I'm pretty sure Bill Clinton's cat was
socks probably dead by now though it's been years not a not
according to the deep state anyway this is the end of our time
with Joel Scousen because the rest of it is mostly about like a
frustrating name I don't like I like it I don't like it I
like it sounds a nefarious automatically it sounds like
scowl yeah scousin you want to put it now in there and I don't
think there is one I think it's scousin I think it has just
too much of a German flavor for me like scousin like oh boy
but he belongs in this category of Info Wars guests and man it
sucks because I'm saying like some stuff that you're gonna
clown on me for the listeners aren't gonna like oh Dan you
know I don't clown on you for I don't I look I when Joel
Scousin is on the show I mostly tune out he's not really that
bad in terms of his beliefs he has a lot of like dumb geopolitical
ideas and stuff like that right in terms of like the like red
flags about like people like Matt Bracken has red flags all over
right whenever he shows up I'm like I got to listen and he
always is like oh shit right I realize this this actually
pisses me off yes about myself okay on our last episode we talked
about Matt Bracken's appearance yes on the show and Bracks and I
talked about how that is what media matters should be talking
about more than the Linda Sarsour of course of course and I
realized when I went back and listen to it that I forgot to play
a clip and I don't have the clip okay but I could go get it and
now I can't because time's up right we're recording right now
it's it's too late I'll get it on the next episode sure you will
maybe you can find it if you just go listen to the episode but
that's Alex Jones tricks you no one listening is going to know
it's going to go back and listen to an Alex Jones episode
Dan one of the things that motivated me to be like this is
so much more bigoted than the Linda Sarsour stuff yes was
that Matt Bracken got into fucking going hard about the
overbreeding and the idea that white people are going to be
bred anytime somebody says breeding that's bad that's bad
he was nobody should ever say he was making the argument that
liberals are mad and Islamists should be mad because this guy
went and ran a truck into people when if you just chill out
we're going to outbreed them that sort of thing and it was
like boy great not not tasty not tasty as an argument so
there are people like that like Matt Bracken yeah and then
there are people like like David Ike where I'm like all right I
dig you crazy but right but also arms distance you're a silly cat
and then on June on on January 7th here you have Joel Scousen
and like I think he's wrong about a lot of stuff yeah but also
I don't hate him he's a sort of a nebulous concept whereas like
Harry Harry Dent or or Schiff Peter Schiff right they're
terrible no later later Max Kaiser is going to show up and I
think I might like Max Kaiser you're okay I understand where
you're coming from I'm wrestling with this no I know I'm
struggling here's the problem the bar is so low exactly yeah
you're you're in a world where all you have to do to be a
centrist is just not hate the juice so loud right like that's
that's your world so or mind your narratives right and that's
why and that's why you know me and all of the rest of us who
don't listen to Alex Jones every single day can clown on you
over being Dan the centrist right not least of which not least
of which because you love guns and want everybody to have them
I don't want everybody here you're even against white genocide
which I think is the most centrist position that you can have
so so it is kind of a situation where your perspective will
always be warped true by the relative horrificness of Alex
Jones's guests yeah that that that is definitely fair and so
it's not and and nobody's nobody's clowning on you like there
there is because they dislike you it's just we live in
different perspectives there is no counting for like the the
the the fact that we've been doing this for now a little over
ten months four thousand hours we're about to hit that dude
Malcolm Gladwell is going to jerk off to us so but like we
we've been going over this and most the weirdest thing I've ever
said most that's not but most of the time we like we go over
these episodes and I don't even include the portions that are
like Paul Joseph Watson being a full of shit and stuff like
that so you guys who are listening and you Jordan don't
realize the vitriol that isn't included in the show no Dan I am
more than I am more than aware that sometimes you are out to
protect me so Joel Scousen is okay and also protect the show
so I don't yell for fourteen contiguous minutes yeah so but
I guess my point in that is also preparatory because in a
little bit we will get to Max Kaiser right he there's an
interview with him at the end of the show that I think is
fascinating it's mostly about him being in favor of Bitcoin and
Alex being like we don't know enough facts right and then
being so go by Max coin well this I think is actually I'm
not sure I'm not sure when Max coin started he doesn't pimp
it at all okay he just talks about how like cryptocurrencies
are they've shown themselves in terms of yeah and he's like I
don't know why you don't trust it Alex I think I'm I think I'm
on his side I think cryptocurrency makes sense and at the
same time I'm not going to switch over to cryptocurrency
anytime soon on paper like a lot of work on paper it does
exist or it does it does seem to work I'm also not going to
change right I will change I would change over if more
things that were convenient in my life were relevant and you've
just explained all of human history right there right like
that I I don't like Amazon but I use it because no I despise
Amazon I hate Apple but I have a fucking iPhone see I don't
yeah I yeah like I don't use Amazon I don't use Uber or any
of those things like I hate corporations and I do have an
iPhone and I shouldn't but I can't like there's a part of
me you don't want to Samsung I can't survive without an iPhone
you don't want to fucking zoom I'm in the ecosystem I've got a
MacBook Pro I've got an iPhone I've got an iPad like I can't
escape right all my stuff is there I hate Facebook but we have
a Facebook page Twitter but we are on Twitter I could social
media is the devil but you make a deal with it on some level
yeah personally personally I have not been happier since when
I left Facebook and Twitter totally and I don't use my
personal account really at all right and I'm much happier than
back when I would look through people's posts of course why
you booked on that you son of it of course yeah yeah but also
that has to do with leaving comedy to well there's a me at a
certain point I used to care about that and then I started going
through lineups and I was like oh I no longer like I used to
feel jealousy and I no longer feel jealousy yeah anyways we got
to get out of comedy no idea about comedy so that all of that
is a bizarre reaction to me saying that Joel Scousen isn't
that bad and maybe he is and I just haven't heard it I think
we got I think we got to the bottom of it it's possible that
he's a monster and I just don't know it I'm going to give that
caveat but let's move on he's statistical likelihood he's a
monster it seems like most of his arguments are about prepping
yeah which I'm okay with doomsday prepping yeah as long as
you're not crazy I'm okay with it you should have water in the
base those guys seem right you should have water and you should
have some sort of food yeah supply like when I was growing up
we had a basement and my parents had a bit of food supply down
there and some bottled water Y2K my family had water okay your
family is crazy but like for my family it was more like about
the idea that we lived in Missouri and there were tons of
tornadoes right and we might have to hang out in the basement
for a week or something like that it's good preparation and
for for no matter no matter what it's good to be prepared
scout shit theoretically yeah but it gets weird whenever you're
like I'm going to build bombs when it becomes central to your
identity that's when it becomes trouble or if it's like it
impedes you from the lifestyle that you would otherwise be
living right like when you spend all your money on it all your
time you make your family do stuff they're uncomfortable with
because I watch that show a bunch and well at the same time
it's like the doomsday prepper show is mostly about like bad
marriages that's what it's mostly about I mean at a certain
point that it's mostly about sad wives it's just overly
motivated husbands it's just another it's just another like
super weird dad kind of behavior to you know the guy who's
super into cars is only slightly less insane than the guy
who's super into doomsday prep but at the same time like there's
not and now there is I mean being able to fix a car is great
and being able to have like a kernel of a supply if shit goes
bad absolutely it's all it's all it's all healthy impulses gone
bad and maybe that's what this whole show is generally about
that's probably what it is so let's get to this next clip
because Max Kaiser doesn't show up for a little bit welcome back
to healthy impulses gone bad I'm going to drink this vodka
so in this next clip Alex Jones laments that he didn't stop
Obama that fucking guy what's weird is I'm up here saying how
bad they are and it sounds like it's cartoonish like I'm
making it up but it's not because you are worse than I'm
saying I'm mad at myself I don't have words to describe you
how evil Obama is and how mad I am that I didn't try to
stop him getting elected I'm just I am a pathetic liberal
I'm just a gullible idiot I'll be honest with you I wanted to
see a black guy get elected compared to John McCain and thought
maybe would bring people together I mean I knew the
globalist wanted to divide and conquer us but not true hype
and all the love I mean I was against Obama
that doesn't try I just wasn't against him enough that doesn't
track either and I'm telling you I'm not getting fooled again
man these people are evil I won't get fooled again like that
that that like a rambling brain trail that he went down is so
racist I wasn't against Obama I mean I hated him and I didn't
vote for him but I wasn't against him enough but also the
like I have I have been you know died in the wall my entire
life into liberal positions yeah that's not and that whole that
whole premise of you grow up and you become more conservative
yeah I don't feel that at all you and I you and I were raised
from very different stock well certainly but but be that as it
may it doesn't matter because right did come from like dick
dick dick weed weird conservative cult family how dare you be
accurate and I came from a religious but also liberal right
like they they were Christian they were super Christian but
right never not liberal they were the type of Christian that
Christ would have enjoyed I think that my dad would like you
saying that yeah hope he listens to this episode maybe not the
David Ike part but maybe not but like that to me I I always
have had a diverse set of friends and I've always kept people
in my life even that I disagree with yeah to a point when it
became fighting and shit like that course not gonna hang out
with you anymore hey if it's direct if it's destructive mail on
it but all the liberals that I knew around the time that Obama
got elected yes not a one of them to a man or a woman was
like I want to see a black guy in there they might have
subconsciously thought that you know there's a certain part of
me that wants to disagree because it was never a selling point
no outside of this is not something that Alex would say and
I think it is a reasonable selling point in terms of race yeah
just the idea of children seeing a black president right black
children seeing as someone who conforms to their perception
of self right I opens up a wide window of oh I this is
something that has never been a possibility for me and now it is
of course that's meaningful psychologically that's not what
Alex is talking about no of course that's the extent that I ever
heard any sort of like let's get a black guy in there right
whereas Alex is talking about it in terms of divide and conquer
race baiting course I want to see a black guy in there maybe
maybe that'll calm the blacks down I mean that's what he's saying
yeah that is what he is saying that if you voted for Obama what
you were voting for is pacifying black people which is not a good
position to take on some level that is what he's right and then
he's saying like I look I love the love fuck what am I going to do
with this I wasn't for Obama I wasn't for didn't fight hard enough
like that just struggle in his brain of like he doesn't know
what to do like is at the beginning of this episode he called
for his impeachment right like he called for Paul Ryan's
impeachment right because he won't impeach Obama right like he
sounds as crazy as I do he's a no because your craziness at
least is all focused in the same direction like Alex is all over
the place like he's trying to make penance in some way in this
in this for being like not against Obama enough but look I got
duped I got right but if you don't actually believe in anything
fair enough then it has to be like that is that is kind of a
fascinating headspace to get into that you can't really process
if you're not that of like yeah exactly but that's why like I
watched all of that one fucking Netflix show like mind hunter
whatever it is probably no I watched all of that shit too but
it is it is like the reason that it's so fascinating is because
the 99% of us are 90 85 84% of us who aren't psychopaths
burp it's fascinating like how do you get into that headspace
burp what is it like if you're that person what is it like if
you don't really believe in anything burp I'm trying to do
I'm trying to do a durst impression I know you're really
really struggling you're really struggling to a fake burp so
it's not good it's not good so yeah I don't I agree I mean I
think that's a fascination with true crime shows to right of
the extent of like course our cultures and on a sick level it
is also the what reality TV is but unfortunately it's self
reinforcing right because those reality shows are like we're
watching people be artificial sociopaths they're getting paid a
bunch of money to act like that or they're not getting paid a
bunch of money now they are and they're just getting publicity
to act like no but then they get paid a bunch of money to show up
at a bar for a private yeah that's true like if I could go on
some fucking show and then end up getting thirty five grand to
show up at a bar yeah that's amazing you know it's crazy I
like the real world road was challenged do yeah so do all
the $35,000 to show up at a bar all of the Jersey Shore we
gonna party I was almost on married at first sight that's a
true story hold on yeah yeah well this is the rest of the
episode what are you talking about what are you talking about
it's not a super interesting story I was on a strongly disagree
I was so no so when I was where you would have to get married to
someone you just met yeah why did you sign up for this because
that's the more interesting story I didn't sign up for it I was
recruited wow I was on I was on the ok cupids sure and so all
the sudden I started talking to this one girl lady woman turns
out reality show recruiter hell yeah we were having she didn't
make that clear from the first message horse not that's
subterfuge oh absolutely no we started talking she made me do
this whole audition video and all this shit and I was
I was at a point in my life where I was like you know what fuck
it what I'm bored sure no I get that impulse I get that
in plane to me that the reason that I was not cast was because
I was a comedian and they thought I would fuck with them and
I was like you nailed it yeah there is no way I would have
taken this seriously and I would have fucked with you guys the
whole time well I mean I think the like the good news is that
show didn't work so it even if you had signed up it would be
embarrassing it would be hilarious to me it would be
embarrassing in hindsight because like funniest fucking shit
like if you had signed it like on fully and but yeah I'm
into I want to I want to do this no no chance I I got an
email out of the blue from some producers that they were
trying to do a like like they're like hey we're going to do a
new version of the guy code and girl code those MTV two shows
right together like you real real cool like what would you
like they're like let's do a video audition so I got like a
Skype going and yeah if I had it now I have these fucking
webcam so right perfect right right but my like my fucking
laptop computer I just looked grainy and shit and they're
like this this video is not good I'm like sorry yeah it's what
I got you're right and so they were asking me they're like
what pisses you off about women I'm like I don't like the
question currently currently you immediately I was like this
show is not going to catch me number one I look like a crazy
person and I am not playing ball I this is no good I did a
weekend with one of the hosts of the guy code well but there
are a couple good people on there like John Gabriel is amazing
yeah he's fucking hilarious not that guy Mateo was on there
our friend Mateo Lane not that guy all right I don't remember
who else is on there you don't need to know great I don't name
name but there are people who are on those shows who are
actually really talented it's not their fault the show sucks
of course but also it is embarrassing when this person is
like also it was from the E network right he was trying to
get their own version of that right like what first of all
why the fuck you talking to me why did you send me an email
out of the blue I'm not I you fucking can find a picture of
me you know what I look like a little bit weird you know what I
look like and I have fucking hundreds of hours of me talking
into a microphone like you probably don't now hey if you
cast me for your reality show just so you know when people
Google me shit's going to get wild this might have been
before we started this podcast but be that as I didn't mean
with just you and me I meant your entire podcast over that's
not on the internet anymore that shit is down fair but be that
as it may this has been a wonderful glance down memory yeah
or were we talking about Alex Jones you got now I forgot about
it but but this is our version of Alex being like I've been in
big movies that's our like that that's our we've taught you
show business you were almost on a dumb marriage reality show
that's that's exactly what it is except for again we're
reality we're reality based so it's like out of ourselves this
is fucking stupid yeah why would we have ever done this yeah
yeah not not like I had the opportunity no they asked me to
do it knows yeah it was just fucking stupid no it's dumb we
made fun of it it was a bad idea frankly maybe if I had lied
about being a comic I would have been on married at first site
and I would be the biggest comic in the world oh and if I had
had a better webcam and I had been like let me roll with the
questions as opposed to being myself right maybe I would have
made a thousand dollars and then the show never would air you
just explained why we're never going to be successful maybe if
we hadn't been ourselves yeah that's why we're here exactly
so in this next clip Alex Jones talks a bit more about the
nation of Islam because he went and visited Farrakhan and he
says something that I staunchly disagree so if theory or
or perhaps postulate before we begin hypothesis if Farrakhan
had flattered Alex how would that have gone he did oh shit I
think it's in this next clip I was inside the nation of Islam
one of their main headquarters and I probably talked to 20 men
and they were like I like the show last week I want you to do
the blah blah blah I mean it's like and then they get they turn
the computer on Alex Jones is playing like oh excuse us I mean
it's like and you're like well what I mean people like what do
you mean I don't like the issue of Islam they're anti-Semitic
whatever whatever we can reach out to them and get them to come
out against the New World Order and we agree with them about
vaccines that doesn't matter the point is if we've even got the
nation of Islam listening every day and in foreign governments
and everything else it's amazing so let's unpack that all right
let's unpack that the it takes so little for Alex Jones to love
you well but that that like that version of things is it it's
like who cares they're anti-Semitic yeah and don't worry
about it now I want to juxtapose that with my support of David
Ike that I was talking about earlier I really wish you wouldn't
call it support of David Ike I only did you could you call it a
soft spot for David Ike I only did for reference I would respect
soft spot for David Ike I do I do stop dick Van Ike I do stop
just short of support yes but like David Ike is not legitimately
anti-Semitic he is beholden to anti-Semitic ideas and metaphorically
spits out some rhetoric he's a he has dispenser yes yes but he is
not someone who is like the Jews are evil Farrakhan is right and
the nation of Islam has had that tradition pretty hardcore yeah and
so the difference here where Alex is like who cares if they're
anti-Semitic that's like that's bad that's very bad right
whereas for me when I say look David Ike has break clearly has
brain damage and he believes the protocols of the elders as I
on and what have you when I say that it's less who cares about
that it's more let's look at this in context right if he actually
was coming out and being like fuck these Jews then it'd be then
there would be no soft spot that I wouldn't be great whereas Alex
it's like who can they like me yeah they like me yeah and you
hear that clip it's totally clear what happened right they had
people put up info wars on their browsers yeah see them oh yeah
and then pretend like oh no let me close you know what do you know
what that's called that's called fucking research it's called
compromising you do it you'll wind up tricking people it's called
compromising somebody through flattery yeah and that's the easiest
trick is like oh no excuse me oh let me close out of these tabs
no it happens to be an article about how you're amazing
who would have guessed oh my god you guys you guys over there
you're breaking all the big news Alex would never demand like
what video did you watch no like I saw that video last week you
were amazing yeah well thank you very much yeah exactly God you
blacks are amazing exactly that's what he had that's the road he
went down Farrakhan and these guys say you blacks are amazing
in Alex Jones's voice I got it these like they played him like
a fiddle yeah it's very clear to me that there was at least
well as we fucking established it's not hard and that's the
point of it but it does take a little bit of forethought and
it is impressive to me okay it's impressive to me that they
thought to do that no that's because they did it's of course
it's clear that it's well and it's not even it's not even
brilliant it's just if you do a modicum of research on
somebody and you actually attempt to influence them you can
probably succeed yeah and that is the story of everybody who's
been on Alex Jones's show if you do just the slightest bit look
Dan yeah you could go on to Alex Jones's show using all of your
information I might call him tomorrow had you have okay have
you the self control to do so Alex Jones will be a fan of
knowledge fight assuming he doesn't already know we exist
yes yeah if he has that pre knowledge then it would be
impossible but if I called in and it was like hey Alex look
you're the best you're spitting the this truth that no one is
putting out there it's so it's not real it's that's where it
would end is because you'd be like you're spitting this truth
that no one else is putting out there because you're like I
don't and so I don't have honesty to you're like Kevin
Neelans subliminal man I would just make look dude you're the
best bra bro bro you're the shit I love you I love you all
right your cell will be all this you've got the truth behind
you I believe you appreciate it excellent look we do a
podcast about you can we get a plug in oh yeah give it a
block give it a block listen this podcast called knowledge
fight we just talk about you know it's like info wars but
knowledge fight we just talk about how great you are it's
the best and all you guys should check that out maybe that
would work instantly yeah but it all is just flattery if he
came here that thought died yeah I know there's nowhere for
that to go no I like the I was trying to think about how we
could co-opt him if he came to Chicago and they're like now
come to my bedroom no if you know if he came here it would
just be me barking at him oh you wouldn't be here no I
it would be one on one good point good point you're you're
not wrong that is a very smart deal look also would you put
that shit on twitch millions of viewers totally we got to find
wrap ports number anyway is that the next step for us you
don't I've realized you don't have a rap report John wrap
reports well it gets get my crap about my grab before yeah
that'd be great the what I've realized this is an interesting
thing because we haven't covered wrap report in a long time
and that's because his reports have been born right of course
he's every other Thursday though still hosting the fourth hour
and what I've realized is he's like he's kind of a psychiatrist
or psychologist for info wars right because he is so much of
a calm presence because he does these neuro linguistic
programming type tricks the way he speaks with like these
lilting tones he does a bit of that and then he sounded a bit
like a ghost there no he does that too he sounds like a ghost
yeah but not as like that was parody but at the same time
but at the same time like he does those like he's very trained
in how he uses the tones of his voice and the the gate of his
speech right and to the point where even if he wanted to
control it he probably couldn't probably not yeah and it's
so calm yeah and that's that's unlike anything on info wars
that is so angry yeah and so like even if you're David Knight
being boring you're still an angry boring he's still a little
hot yeah compared to John Rappaport and I the last like four
times that Rappaport's been on I've wanted to cover what he's
done but it because you know I love him to the body of the
report is no good and then each time the the part that's
interesting isn't long enough and had I have known I would have
gotten a month of all of these but basically what happens is
he shows up for the fourth hour and councils Alex for the first
ten minutes okay he councils out like Alex is in a bad mood and
he's like John what about this he's like well you got to think
about you got to think about the angles and you know like
vaccines are terrible he does he basically talks Alex down
that's and then the next 45 minutes is his own report and
what made it crystal clear to me was last Thursday I was when
Owen Troyer hosted and Owen was freaking out at the end of the
end of the show but he couldn't he couldn't figure out where to
put his bearings he had no idea what was going on and he was
like they these JFK reports came out and turns out Hitler's
still alive and everyone clowned on that and that was just
like a him miss because that's silly yeah he miss speaking and
everyone jumped on that of course whatever and so he's just
like what do I do and the whole time you have stoic John Rappaport
just being like you're 27 you probably have a sports medicine
degree calm down the globalists are doing what they do and he
just counseled him through like 15 minutes it was weird so so
we're dynamic Rappaport is the weird Zen master of info is the
guru that's what you're doing basically so wait is this all
John Rappaport's idea now no because are we sure no because he
didn't exist in a meaningful way in 2015 or even where we are
now in 2016 he had shown up just to talk about how like AIDS
isn't real and vaccines are bad course because he has that
medical journalism in hard quotes natural background yeah but
no he's become essentially on Thursdays every other Thursday
someone who will talk the host down it's fucking crazy that's
that's cute I'm going what that is is cute I'm going to keep a
better track of that because it it sounds lame for me to just
sell this whole cloth and be like right this is what they do
right but I assure you it's counseling it's it's absolutely
because John Rappaport's gifted with his language and he
knows how he speaks it's basically like cognitive behavioral
therapy yeah but with an abrasive host again it's amazing how
how certain are we that John Rappaport isn't influencing all
of these people to do what it is he wants them to do I have no
evidence that John Rappaport has ever spoken to Larry Nichols
I vote nah that's wrong you got to know that John Rappaport and I
have been friends since Nicaragua oh Rappaport is a Nicaragua
that's how we got the cross eye that's the plan oh boy look I
don't know that he knows him I don't know that I don't think
look I 100% don't think that he's a part of the 45 group all
right and I also don't think this is tough I don't really
think that I've ever heard John Rappaport say all that much
about Trump interesting he's really into medical shit yeah
like the most lunatic yeah but I don't I mean I know he's pro
Trump is he he is but I don't think I've ever heard him say that
much I don't think he cares that much well he's John Rappaport
he's afraid of vaccines yeah and bushes yeah he's afraid of
college campus bushes if I know one person that he's spoken to
it's general stubble by that's for the walks out that's for
the regular listeners oh yeah anyway Alex Jones in this next
clip gets into a theory about liberals that I don't agree with
I think I'll probably agree with it I'm a woman with short hair
I'm Ron Boyd I'm the authority Obama Congress time for you to get
in line none of that at all government openly funding ISIS
openly giving them stinger missiles neocon Republicans running
Obama you tell a Democrat that from too big a power trip they
look at you through feeble little lies and giggle and go yeah
just imagine I didn't power I had a prominent Democrat this
morning but I was on the phone with on some issues here in town
and he was giggling and laughing at me about the executive order
and a betting I was upset so I don't know who this prominent
Democrat is but also the idea see she loves him for us the idea
that like this prominent Democrat was like haha meaner meaner
you're just mad that yeah that flies in the face of I mean I
would say all literally everything well but no maybe not but
like all of info war is advertising yeah where they're like by
this shirt it'll piss off Democrats right like that sort of
thing it's like why it turns out we're not pissing them off
they're giggling at us why are you mad at first of all that
interaction didn't happen but why are you hypothetically mad at
this person being like you're oh you're you're pissed off you
pissed off isn't that fun right when you that's your ad strategy
your entire life and I know we get back to this stupid hypocrisy
thing where it doesn't matter right but like big picture it
does it really does on as a time capsule how well that's
possible we're never going to make effective change but right
as a just a yeah when you get really big picture yes I agree as
a matter of record yes it matters when you like if it's also
fascinating because that is tied right into a very small part
where he says neocons are route are running Obama and you're
like fuck you might be fucking right about that why are you
saying that shit well because because like okay here's why
Alex is wrong that's why like what you just expressed right
there is literally why Alex is wrong because we talk about
the we I mean I talk about this a lot because I studied logic
extension is extensively in college jinx and the reason you
have to be Robert Durst for you look yes continue the the
important thing about logic is truth preservation I've brought
this up in the past right and the the only thing that logic is
opposed to in terms of sentential logic and predicate logic
yes truth cannot lead to falsity that is where there's a
problem right if you stop if you start from true premises and
lead to a false conclusion that's a problem right if you start
from a false premise and lead to a false conclusion of course
who gives a shit you're already wrong and a false premise to
true conclusion who cares right it's all fine right only
instance where things are actually a real problem are true
premises false conclusion right and that's what Alex does all
the time of course we've talked about it probably three times
already on this podcast if not more what on this episode I
mean yeah that's when you talk about like Obama is involved
with neoconservatives and that is a problem as it relates to
also neoliberals yeah it's it is a big problem so you have
truth there and then what it comes down to is like a meaner
meaner stuff yeah you're just trying to like right it's a game
and you're just trying to fuck right that's a false conclusion
that you're coming to and that's that's where logic comes into
play where it's like well we got a big red flag on this right
and that's what he does all the time and that's that's what
that's where I mean the reason I started this podcast wasn't
that but the thing that keeps me going through it is that so
much of it is that yeah there's so much like a small bit of
reality you're fucking up yep you're fucking up this like
because I am offended by I'm offended by the idea that there
are crimes against children I'm offended by the idea that
Hollywood has this casting couch system of that Alex has been
complaining about for the last month because it's in vogue
yeah but like I do think that's terrible and and he's right
the truth as a premise then he leads to the drinking blood
exactly city yeah he is right about a ton of dumb ass things
dumb ass things let's take that out of it yeah but he's right
about a ton of kernels of stuff and then leads it into falsity
yeah he is like a manufacturer like a warehouse a depot where
it's just like truth becomes fiction yes and it's it's so
crazy but also sometimes he's an assembly line sometimes
fiction becomes fiction yeah and sometimes fiction becomes
truth I mean he has been right about a few things yeah I mean
he's right about like Osama bin Laden attacking world trade
still alive in in 2000 2001 he's hanging out with Hitler in
2001 he did say that Osama bin Laden was going to attack the
World Trade Center again and he was right about that but that's
because that was obvious totally if anybody was paying
attention no for sure yeah at the same time we shouldn't take
that away from like him being right right you know like like in
the same way that if you had called that I would give you
credit oh I did call it but I would also say I was nine but
I called it I would give you credit for it and then stipulate
not that hard to figure out but he's also right about civil
acid forfeiture he's right about marijuana laws drug laws in
general there so like there there's stuff where he's like
true to true it's the problem is when he's true to false 90% is
that yeah 90% I would say that a less amount of it is true to
false and more of it is just false to false 60% is false to
false no cuz even if you go into that it's true that the
Las Vegas shooting happened and then okay and then that's
your if that's your benchmark though for whether or not he's
starting from a truth I mean that's just that's just in that
case what else are you gonna do that's a good point how else
you're gonna construct that argument right the Las Vegas
shooting happened it was a false flag there were helicopters
right no I get I I see now what your what your root point is
and I I I don't know Alex is fucking it's he's disqualified
from having any reasonable point sure it is fun for me to be
like but no or more more illustrative more illustrative
illustrative you did that to me the other day I was just
watching out of of whenever it is he does get something that
is relatively obscure correct wherein neocons running Obama
that is something that is not a a well publicized version of
Obama's presidency I think I think it's I think it's in the
middle like I think I think it's not totally publicized it's
not obscure either though I think that's in the middle I think
that's a conversation point that is out there it is it's an
interesting question for the two of us especially because we
are way too into this to you know what I'm saying like if we
were to go out and family feud the general public you mean mark
dice it if we were to mark dice if we were to mark dice some
people but I doubt I doubt the idea of neoconservative one would
be anywhere near their general lexicon gazing video be on
drudge yeah we do that probably let's do that no that's not
our style to drudge a link no he's not going to look into us
course not let's just make a fucking fake propaganda video
alright Dan let's talk about this after Dan again we are
way too interested in giving neocons advice about how they
should run things probably alright well look we got a couple
more clips okay we got a couple more clips in this eight hour
long episode so in this next clip Alex has another theory
about the left liberals right shockingly I disagree with it
again drinking blood I mean the the kleptocrats the left that's
allied with radical Islam and others they've got such a
hatred of the west that they really ought to think about what
they're trying to destroy and what they're going to be involved
in you people are front and center for radical Islam to take
out but you know your parents were conservative or whatever
so they made you go to church so you want to show them and
it's really dirty it's really nasty cuckolding to bring in
folks to rape the women it's so cool I mean it's in the left
radical Islam is avant garde they see women with hoods on
their heads I mean they get excited I think it's so cool I
mean they just oh it's a sexy because they don't like that you
know they're men how dare you wear pants I'd make the orders
oh my gosh she hotty I love you oh yes I mean it's sick so
what do you think about wait what what what huh I open
what was he saying not sure so not sure honestly not sure
okay so if you want me to give you a recap so wait are we
as a card carrying burn it all to the ground liberal
is he saying that we don't want our women to wear pants
no I think you're not supposed to wear pants I'm not supposed
to wear pants I if so so if we're going from that clip yes I
think he's saying the men aren't supposed to wear pants okay
because that works out sort of in terms of like colloquial
right like the man wears the right right we don't want to do
that's what he's riffing okay because the women not wearing
but I don't understand how that would work well I mean because
especially since it is conservatives of his ilk who kept
women from wearing pants for so long so okay so so but now
now also we were raised conservative right no no no your
parents are trying to make you conservative they made you
they made you go to church okay so he's talking specifically
to me you dumb but hurt liberal right you're cucked out so
now I'm like loving it's kind of it's kind of sexy right for
me to cuck out Christendom I don't disagree that is kind of
hot it's I strongly don't like this parody like nothing makes
me want to fuck more than whatever it was he was talking
about they're like what was he talking about he's talking
about describe a human being who thinks like that I don't think
one exists but right again it's that same kernel of something
that leads to a fake thing there are definitely liberals who are
liberal because they're reacting to their conservative parents
and I'm not saying that's your case just because you had
conservative parents right that's not necessarily the case but
you have people who are the David Brock David Horowitz types
right who grew up in confining political bubbles and then
lashed out against that in their adult life there are examples
like that that's what he's talking about yes and so he's trying
to paint it's it's just this big narrative that he has about
liberals love radical Islam because it's cucking out white
people it's this which is which we should get rid of the west
like anytime you like I'm at it I'm at a point now where totally
I feel like it feels like you should every time he says the
West like you should have a voiceover come on white and then
just move on or like you're you're saying white people just
say white people that's what you know that's what you mean but
male and Christian also right even like that's true it is it is
subordination of the other is what he's talking about exactly
and even if you go back to any of the time when like we don't
even unpack make America great again or anything like that
although I did read an interesting article the other day
I think it was in Politico I'm not entirely sure but they did a
study of I go back and forth on Politico me too I go case by
case yeah but the article was about the perceptions of when
America was great and everybody just was talking about when
they were younger right it is just healthy on days of course
just the idea the image of the past when things were simpler
because your memory destroys all of the horrific things that you
live through you only deify the things that you do you deify
nostalgia yeah of course and all of you out there are cool
which is why the who are an overrated band and that's where
I get murdered they have a good songs but but also a lot of
this could be dealt with if all of you would read some of the
lesser works of HP Lovecraft that is a true fact that is
stated all the time HP Lovecraft is most known for the call of
Cthulhu maybe the case of Charles Dexter Ward the three
great book of his regular co-host Cthulhu I think HP Lovecraft
is one of the most problematically racist but also great
authors he's amazing he taps into something about the human
condition and about terror and how fear works that most
authors don't get and I don't like horror I don't like horror
at all okay but I love the dynamic of his writing and I do
cop to the fact that he's a fucking racist yeah he's a product
of his times and if you look at him throughout his career he
softens in terms of talking about mongoloids and in one of his
early books he has a cat that's named the N word like there
not a great name yeah there's a lot of shit like that but as he
gets older just just pure even if you are a racist that's not a
great name for a cat it's not but I only bring that up to try
Nancy I take the piss out of him in as much as I love him you
know like I love the work though recognize he sucks I
understand his lesser work one of them is the dream quest of
unknown cadath and no one likes that book it for good reason
just just from a title standpoint could have had a couple of
rewrites I love it I think it's perfect it's my favorite book
of his I always have been more of a fan of the dream cycle that
he did more than the the Cthulhu cycle okay I always was more
of a fan of the dream worlds that he described because if you
read his letters they are in like most of his work comes from
legit nightmares that he had right and like trying to deal
with visions that he had not like prophetic visions or anything
like that but the the one he was a man who suffered from
night terrors and he wrote him down yes and told people about
them and we have records yeah but one of the things that's
really fascinating is the dream quest of unknown cadath is
about this guy named Randolph Carter who's trying to get to
the dream city where Randy carts yeah where he's trying to get to
the dream city of cadath where the gods play yeah and there's
these these gold steepled roofs and it's perfect and he
wants to get there and it's this whole thing where like you
can't go there you can't go there the gods the gods play there
and it's forbidden for man to go there right goes through this
whole fucking nonsense as usual there's there's a little bit of
wizard of Oz aspect to it he has to make alliances with
various things and what the sounds right with the end comes to
spoiler alert is he was dreaming of Providence he grew up in
Providence Rhode Island and he was dreaming of his childhood
home that's what his vision of cadath was right that he created
this false vision in his head of what the dream city where the
gods would play is oh shit and it is just what he had as a
child hold on one second right was Alex Jones actually raised
in a small town named prosperity no but he might have been
okay well then never mind I retract my argument if he was a
little bit west it could have been truth and consequences
that's right fucking stupid as or could have gone to go on
east and it could have been hope Arkansas but like that is what
will fall into and that's that's a piece of the human condition
that HP Lovecraft nails in dream quest of unknown cadath which
is a again it's a it's a it's a chore to get through a terrible
book it's not terrible it's great an unreadable book the cats
of Saturn do battle with the cats of Ulter and it's great now
I'm way on board because that's a great title and then the night
gaunts come in do you know about the night gaunts back off board
they have night gaunts they don't have I get it they don't have
faces but they love to tickle no I've played in a final fantasy
to know what a what a great gaunt is night gaunts love to tickle
anyway all right that that's got a very different growing up
the tickle to take the tickling is terrifying yeah the context
of the night got no I agree I agree the thing is though like
this is like what is being triggered by these ideas of
making America great again and heartening back to nostalgia
it is something that is so ingrained in each of us individually
to come up with our own positive association to it right
whereas the reality is not necessarily a positive thing
course the objective reality of going backward is not good
but each of us has a boner for that because of the simplicity
and the wonder of us when we were children back of them and
and just the lack of awareness and like it's very it's very
everybody read science fiction we'd be in a better place that's
it's the dreams of men will you on it qualified truth yeah
because you'd have these ideas that are proposed to you and
you deal with I'm preaching to the choir our listeners are what
but like most people would have more advantageous ideas in their
head if they would just not succumb to easy tricks I mean it's
a it's the it's the classic rock conundrum there is no such
thing as classic rock it's just the shit from a certain area
certain era that radio stations play so often it'll eventually be
Lincoln Park exactly I thought I would use when you first said the
classic rock conundrum I was like oh so two rocks go into a bar
I was like why did Rikishi hit him hit so cold with a car that
doesn't make sense no he said he did it for no no how dare you
down no sir also what is he cook
stir fry stir fry so good so good so have you ever had the rock
stir fry just everyone believe all the vegetables are cooked but
still crispy it's amazing incredible how do you put them in at the
right time I don't know I've never been on chopped but I bet the rock
would win undoubtedly so we have one more clip George we have one
more of course there's been a lot of nonsense this has been so much
fun a delight anytime I get to expound on Lovecraft I I'm having
a great time your your mood improves unimaginably I legitimately
maybe should be doing a podcast about HB Lovecraft you should
maybe be HB HB Lovecraft I have night terrors I don't I do I've
had them yeah yeah they're not great my have you ever have you my
buddy Nick my buddy Nick has night terrors yeah like I don't know
if he has recently but back when you we used to live together he'd
have night terrors and like wake up screaming in the middle of
the night yeah yeah I've never had you've never had sleep paralysis
or anything like that paralysis and I've woken up with jolts
like right that sort of thing but never like to the point of like
ah like legitimately he would scream yeah and now I feel bad
because he listens to the show but he knows and we talk well of
course he does and he he's the one who had them we've talked about
it on a podcast but I'm not putting this on the street sure he
has night terrors no no it's it seems terrifying I don't I don't
know what that experience is like I've also never had a wet dream
either I've never had a wet dream so I don't know I don't know
what those things are like but I've had lucid dreams before I've had
I've had sleep paralysis for sure where I've been awake never had
a dream every time I fall asleep I am at the unwilling mercy of
my own brain but have you ever had dreams where you're like more
conscious within them no I've lived I've lived a an entire
lifetime in a dream multiple times where it's like you you
wake up and you're like holy shit I do not have a wife what the
fuck just happened there but other than that no no lucid dreaming
right well why are you judging me as though I'm a lesser person
right I'm not I just don't know what to do with this information
because even if people like the idea of like straight up total lucid
dreams are you controlling everything and yeah even most
people still have dreams where they're more cognizant of the
fact that it is a dream even if they don't have control over it
never like going along with it so every time you have a dream
it's just like a pictograph just like a movie playing in front
of your eyes I don't remember most of my dreams but still
happen though you just don't remember them it's possible I
just have no recollection of them yeah it's a muscle you can
work on possible this it's possible it could be all a dream
I mean we could be in a simulation how fucking according with
that be according to cowboy bebop this is all a dream how
sad would it be if this is a simulation and this is how we
spend our time statistically speaking this is about Alex Jones
this is a simulation drinking vodka and talking about Alex Jones
is how we choose it is yours ones and zeros it is an unreasonable
idea to think that this isn't a similar simulation I know I
read Nick Bostrom yeah all right make sense all right yeah
absolutely mathematically it does not work out that also real
world also mathematically why wouldn't we be talking about
Alex Jones I got nothing better to do exactly well I did buy a
switch have you ever played the Sims do you see what those
people do none of them talk about Alex Jones at all they never
start podcast although that is oh my god that's gonna that's
gonna be the saddest thing that ever happens is when the next
Sims game comes out and they're like do you want your character
to start a podcast do you want your do you or do you not think
your sim believes in the protocol that's going to be a branch
I'm a branching decision do you know what we need to do develop
a game called sim Larry Nichols you get to live Larry Nichols
life if Larry Nichols was telling the truth about his life dude
that's a bummer what it's not a bummer dad I've got a lot of
information I can't give out on the air all right he's a bummer
of a man all right we'll talk off air okay so we have one more clip
I teased this that Max Kaiser comes on another guest and most of
who's Max Kaiser he's a guy who has Max coins okay but most of
the episode I have way think he's the guy who wrote that book
about like women no that's Max Kellerman tech Tucker Max yeah
Max Kaiser most of his appearance is just about Bitcoin being a
decent cryptocurrency great idea not Max coin Alex Jones you
do not like the Federal Reserve you hate fiat currency all that
stuff bitcoins work right on top of that's a lot of his argument
but easy they get into gun stuff a little bit doesn't make
sense why would you do that well Max Kaiser has a decent argument
and this is a Mike down clip because it's like okay but also only
because it's so like Alex Jones being a dick okay and Max Kaiser
being pretty reasonable and I want to hear I want the audience
to be able to hear the times that Max tries to rebut things and
Alex cuts him off okay it moves very fast all right so here's
Mike down in the news so let me let me ask you a question and I
know you follow the gun issue obviously it's a big issue and I
am always looking at this issue myself and and so I want to ask
you a question so what what what would happen and I haven't
really thought through this I'm God I'm really genuinely curious
what you would think of this idea you know what would be the
situation if gun owners were required to buy insurance to go
with that gun so when you buy a gun you need to buy insurance to
go with that gun similar to the way when you drill learn to get
a car you need car insurance so the damage that's done you know
by accidents or etc the power to tax is the power to destroy
they're using Obamacare to take over the economy as a private
tax corporations next will be a tax for a baseball bat or a
or a or insurance for a nice but it's but insurance is not a tax
it's a it's a way to rule it is to spread the the the cost
come on of this no the cost is twelve thousand two hundred
people dead a year on average max and about seven plus
thousand commit suicide which is their right to do I don't
support people killing themselves but I get it you had bone
cancer or something blow your head off I mean I see it but I
mean like the case that the folks the government is coming down
and if I read Obama they want to disarm us to enslave us
brother but they're going to put they're going to put
fingerprint sensors on the guns right yeah that'll bankrupt
all the old ones and and and make all the others illegal if
this is a plan to get the okay so I have the mayor protein of
Austin admitting after they register they confiscate max
okay but after there's no debate they want our guns but it
wouldn't it be in the interest of those supporting the gun
law no no no compromising no no gun laws none let felons have
guns let everybody have it because criminals are going to have
them anyways zero gun laws zero zero zero zero zero zero
so um especially on today of all days what a dick when a
gentleman who of I mean all the information isn't out yet as
we record this but someone went into a church and killed twenty
seven people I wait what twenty seven yeah it was twenty
seven that's the last report I saw the number might change
but yeah that's the last report I saw on fucking real on a
day like that I mean I know we're going back into the past
but it's important to see the principles versus the reality
and what Max Kaiser is presenting is a reasonable middle
ground not a bad idea it's a reasonable middle ground it's not
and he's even presenting it as look people are pushing towards
this wouldn't it be in people who are strong gun advocates
best interest to protect their ability to have guns insurance
would make reasonable the idea behind it is sooner or later it
will be enough so like if you're if your argument is or like
when when he's describing Obama the drumbeat of when will
enough be enough so we all feel that yeah his point is sooner
or later it has to be there will be enough is enough and none
of us want to come to the point where it's draconian none of
us want to come to the point where there's a fascist state
taking guns right like you and I as died in the world liberals
as we are would be uncomfortable with that it would be a bad
idea that would be scary as shit yeah you don't want a you
don't want a federal government of any kind doing something
along those lines no in that regard so or a state government
fair well especially especially not Kansas or Indiana
any centralized authority doing something like that would be
no in the same way that we support all of the amendments
we support the second amendment unfortunately against our
against God's will but so his his idea makes way too much
sense yeah his idea is gun owners you don't want your guns
taken away so rather than wait until they try and take him
away and then have a fantastic shootout when none of us want
that none of us want that maybe instead be like oh okay if you
buy a gun you also have to buy gun insurance and if any gun is
used to hurt somebody that money but it out well let's insurance
let's give the let's done and done let's give a fucking real
world example of this because I have said a couple times on
this episode that I bought a switch I bought a Nintendo
I bought a Nintendo switch yes you did and in doing so and I
shot it with a gun and in doing so I had to trade in I didn't
have to but I traded in mind we you because I was like I want
some store credit in order to buy this in order to afford it
appropriately because otherwise it would be a crazy purchase
too much and so I went to the store and they said cool they
looked at the Wii U they checked it out made sure it played
well I wasn't scamming them and then they asked for an ID
and they ran the ID and they're like oh your ID is expired
right your ID is expired you can't trade in a video game
system for another video game system I probably could have
bought a gun and absolutely I probably could easily at a gun
show or something like that without they were just like
looked at the ID like in the same way that I can still get into
bars with an expired ID could have gotten in the could have
gotten three to five guns absolutely and I'm not sure
exactly what point I'm trying to make with this but like
maybe when trading in a video game system laws are more
important than buying murder weapon laws probably something
going on yeah I had to go and like really work out a plan
you had to text me I had to get other people I had to get on a
goddamn bus we had to get on a bus that we weren't sure was
coming because Broadway has gotten a lot of structure
construction work on it so we spent a good hour and ten
minutes together figuring out how it is you are going to get
a Nintendo switch spoiler for a hundred dollars less than it
cost spoiler I mean it is it was a situation where Jordan was
the best friend in the world and he came through for me
because he has a current ID and mine is expired and you know
one thing they say about Jordan his ID is always current
these pawn shop laws that GameStop follows right are
confining and also the bands the blind sure rest in peace
Lou dog nope don't care much of a little like that through you
and the look I just thought about Lou dog makes me say
rest in peace Lou dog the the thing that I keep coming back
to is is this idea that like I don't care I mean I was frustrated
in the moment but I get it yeah I get why you have to have
regulations in place of like someone could have stolen this
and of course rated in you like course it's a it's a it's a
piece of technology it's like a laptop or something like that
that at this point back in the day it was just a piece of plastic
you know like yeah Nintendo but now now these things are like
multiple hundred dollars worth of it was frustrating in the
moment but I get it and the idea that I would lobby Congress
or that I would be like fuck you video game trade in rights
are paramount right and granted no one dies because of this
example that I'm using but like it it's so it's so silly to me
and then the other piece I want to take away from this is that
Alex is like the Supreme Court decided that insurance is a tax
that is yeah but well then back that's again just no but
that's again just him not understanding the Dirst is here
burp oh no burp oh no I'm gonna end up in a garbage bag
that's just him not always the way this podcast is gonna end
in me me and me cross dressing and ending up in a garbage bag
I assume both of us we're gonna end up in a garbage bag sooner
or later so it's just him misrepresenting the Supreme
Court's decision about Obamacare yeah it's not about Obamacare
it's about the penalty it's about the penalty for not
signing up with Obamacare the Supreme Court did decide that
it is a tax yeah and that's fine yeah that makes sense yeah it
is it is kind of the so so the argument that conservatives
always make is you can't legislate morality which is in a
very very simplistic way a truth and at the same time the
dumbest fucking thing that you could possibly say and if you
say it shut the fuck up forever because it in the same way
that you and I or that you tried to trade in a video game system
now that law is not really going to affect a ton of people
right if you have a legitimate ID even if you stole that fucking
system it's going to only make it traceable that this person
stole the system exactly which is not going to make it and who
the fuck is going to follow up on it unless somebody says my
video game system was stolen right like all of this is not
legislating morality it is increasing two or three steps away
from it guess you know what every video game system has a
tracking number on it and every single video game system that
you have can be traced like there's why they have serial
numbers on the hash that they scanned them yeah when you trade
them in or when you buy them you buy them you they scan it
and they're like I mean it's not like oh my god big brother
they they know that I have this video game system but if the
records need to be pulled up right they can find out that I
own a switch no they can absolutely be and and here's the
way if you have your phone stolen yeah there there there's
like yeah the whole thing there there's it's not always evil
right there are things that are the the simplest the simplest
way of describing why you can't legislate morality is a
stupid argument is the I can't remember which hill or bridge
or whatever it is but they just there was a a area where
hundreds of people committed suicide every year and all they
did was they put up a fence and all of a sudden the suicide
rate dropped so fast because that is not legislating morality
or anything like that but for a lot of people if you just make
something annoying it's logistics they won't do it you want to
jump off that bridge but you don't want to be seen seen
climbing over that exactly there is a certain part of human
psychology that is just like that seems like a lot of work
sure like that's that's really all it is that's really all taxes
wind up being like you want it like we all want roads we want
all of this shit but there's a certain point of like like the
soda tax in Chicago I think it was a good idea and I think it
should have worked fine people bitched about it fifty fifty on
it I know I agree I'm right there with you because I did work
at a distributor when it was going down and the the the
dynamics of it in terms of wholesale are really problematic
exactly to the consumer I don't think it's that bad because
like whenever I would buy soda I do think that it's fucked up
that applied to seltzer that's fucked up that is fucked up
but at the same time like but that's just a poorly written law
that's not like that's not like we were always going after big
seltzer like when they weren't paying attention when it comes
down to like wholesalers and how it will screw their business
yeah I think there's a legitimate argument but in terms of
the consumer paying a couple cents more per a cent more
announced for sugary beverages I don't like I don't think
that's legislating morality I think that does come into like
and I want to be I don't want to be this dick because like I
drink soda and I drink beer and what have you right I I if
you charged me more for it because of the burden that we
all collectively add into the health system yeah that makes
sense I I accept that we you and I pay how much more for
cigarettes than people in Missouri like at least twice as much
yeah at least at least twice as much and you know what I'm
fucking fine with that I'm not happy but I accept I'm super
not happy about it but I get it and it makes sense now I I
hope all that money goes to the right places but that's another
conversation does not but that's another conversation but that's
as as an ideal of like look if you're going to make decisions
that burden everybody else more you should of course pay more
to burden other people in order to lighten that burden for
other people and like it just seems and it's polite taxes are
politeness and now the flip side of that is you see this out
of like European countries a lot like people with the
perspective of like I know that my my taxes are higher
because more of it goes towards protecting people who need
help right and I don't care right that sort of thing that's
that's right where I live I don't really give a shit look if I
have to pay more and I'm not saying that is like I'm I'm a
good person it just seems like how a society should operate
think of it really really simply like the most simple form of
that we live in Chicago imagine you paid 10% more of your
income and taxes and you never saw another homeless person
well I know because that that makes it seem like the impetus
is never seeing homeless people and that's but that is my point
well but right doesn't your motivation is I don't want to
see homeless people then fuck you but I don't care what your
motivation is if you're willing strongly willing look we can
get into ethical arguments about determination anytime you want
now we're back to cotton Kierkegaard there we are Dan and
Jordan the new cotton Kierkegaard is the least watch show on TV
but but the point being if that's if that's the motivation
that you really have which it seems like for a lot of people
who are anti-tax it's always about well it's not going towards
what I wanted to go towards if if you're so craven and so miserable
that all you really want is like I'm mad that I have to walk
by 30 fucking homeless people every day fine pay 10% more in
taxes and you'll never have to do that again so what so what
better so our tax is bad like what are you talking about the
better version of that when you started this allegory or this
sort of thought experiment I would have gone with is you pay
10% more in taxes and then everyone gets a good education
that's what I would have gone with but you know what your point
remains but that's not that's not how people think no but your
point remains how many people bitch about property taxes how
many people bitch about property taxes even though they know
it goes towards schools right like how insane is that yeah you
know that this goes towards only helping your own children
your own neighborhood and the children of others and you're
still like oh I don't want to pay 8% in the most seriously
no one complains about the lottery yeah no good the only
complain about the people who are dumb enough to famously
described as a tax on the dumb yeah and that's the only who
cares don't ask me anyway I'm not a good person to ask in this
regard we've spun way out of control but the point I wanted
to make about this tax Supreme Court thing is that the
penalty for not signing up for Obamacare is covered under the
commerce clause yeah and it's maybe definable as a tax but
it's entirely justified and it's the only thing that makes
sense yeah because why would you but look the whole point of
the yeah continue it's it's a specific thing that Alex is
calling out that insurance is a tax and that's not true it's
true in in the case of this specific Supreme Court
decision which is about the penalty for not signing up for
Obamacare that they determined it was largely definable as a
tax yeah insurance itself is not a tax car insurance isn't
a tax your health care if you have insurance outside of
Obamacare or inside of Obamacare isn't a tax other
insurances home insurance renters insurance that's not a tax
do you know what they are tax is not I'm sorry insurance is
not tax so Alex making that argument as a shut up Max
Kaiser yeah with the gun shit that's not his argument falls
apart furthermore insurance itself is a socialist concept
the idea of insurance is you are subsidizing people who need
help it is the larger group of people the the more almost
everything about society is a slight socialist the more
insane idea is that you are mad about gun insurance and not
about health insurance you're paying money for a profiting
company to get money from you when you could just be paying
the government a smaller amount in order to make sure that
this happens sovereignty instead of that shit instead of
people having to deal with pre existing condition bullshit
or any number of Byzantine laws to keep them from getting
the benefit that they themselves have paid into this entire
time you're like oh it's a tax prosperity fuck you
prosperity fuck you sovereignty prosperity people just don't
even understand what socialism means you know we should just
say is Alex is into the sovereignty gospel because he
does that like you know like he talks about the glitter bug
churches and that's the that's the prosperity gospel that's the
the and his his idea is instead of donating money to a church
to get your own money I mean donate money to me he's even so
I can type to info wars yeah like oh he's just the sovereignty
preacher and and that is a good way of putting it to a certain
extent to a certain extent just this week I know that this
sounds crazy because it's been 11 I'm excited whenever you
start a sentence with it sounds crazy but just this week it
kind of dawned on me how one to one it is just the you flatter
him and it works out right he loves you right and what made
it so clear is this shit with the nation of Islam because for
the last 11 months that we've been going through this he's
been screaming about the nation of Islam and he hates them of
course he hates them he thinks that they just think that white
people are baby destroying every manufacturing systems they
want the white people to cock them out etc exactly and and he
goes in and they pretend that they like him and he's like fuck
they're in they make a lot of sense they're the best I don't
agree with everything they say but they make a lot of sense it
dawns on me that like I don't know why we're doing this
podcast edit this part edit this part out that's on me though
no like it does it does dawn on me that like this guy is so
simple we're making this very complicated and he is more
complicated than that but like yeah because of his I mean soft
stance on Hitler and like there are those things there are those
things that are like I still I still don't like the idea that
there is a soft stance on Hitler but there are those things
that are worth discussing it right and certainly right but at
the same time like I think I I think I said this in like maybe
one of the first episodes we did is like so much of this I could
have just assumed I think what we're doing everyone everyone
out there who hates him is right but they're not right for the
right reasons yeah and everyone who out there who hates him
generally hasn't listened to him and they hate him for the wrong
reasons right it's so complicated there's this thread I
sincerely believe that I mean our society will fall in one day
or not historically speaking it has to it will yeah and I think
that the one of the most interesting things will be the
millions of people who were led astray by nothing yeah just
nothing and he's not the first example of that they were not
even close there were caught men there were PT Barnum's long
time ago yeah and it's just we have the advantage of all of
it being recorded right all of it is available right you can take
him to task like back in the like PT Barnum again just because
I just said him like he wasn't on tape when he said no yeah we
just get the advantage of like it's there I don't know I I mean
ultimately based on our relationship as much as I love all of
the policy walks out there we're doing this for Poster
no it no I know it's it is a mix it is one of those things
where we're not catching on there's no we're not hitting the
zeitgeist I but at the same time there there is certainly a
section of the the world that is interested in and analysis of
well it is it is just this might be an off air conversation
there's possible there's so many things where you can take a
very very specific subject and by looking at that subject you
can extrapolate the world sure and this is what I see our
podcast as I just taught you all about HP Lovecraft exactly
we through through this tiny little box the prism through the
tiny little box we can see the world and it's become so much
clearer when you have this kind of small real like it's all right
like I'm all right I'm going to be I'm going to be super lame
right I want you to do that but before you do that I want to say
like to respond to what you're saying like I'm interested in
truth I'm super interested in truth yeah as like evidence by all
my pedantic conversations about all of our listeners disagree
with you I'm super hate you never believe I'm super interested
in what's real yeah and the best way I think to discuss that is
talking about someone who's totally full of shit exactly
because because you have these like the juxtaposition well like
and and I mean where Alex is right again the kernel of right
that leads to falsity yeah like the media sucks yeah like you
you have all this stuff on social media on Twitter on Facebook
all these stories that are not true that just pander to whatever
your preexisting condition is or what your mentality is right
like there were so many things about like trying to rebut the
Dona Brazil stuff right that oh my god fucking kill me there's
so much stuff and I get it I get it and you and I sitting around
trying to do a progressive show would be a disaster because
if we if we tried to just like oh do you mean if we tried to do
an analog of Alex's show no as progressive no if we tried to
do a news show it would be a disaster oh you and I know
because everything moves so goddamn fast oh yeah it'd be like
what do we cover and we'd get tricked by things probably yeah
I mean you have the immediacy of needing to do the show right
whereas there's a certain economic and output we have an anchor
of a complete liar yeah and you can find truth from pinging off
that liar yes and sometimes they're not lying it's very rare
but sometimes they're not lying right the other times you get
to see what is their presentation look into it right find the truth
right and that that to me is a much better that's what the news
maybe need to maybe needs to become yeah is essentially debunking
bullshit and there are two truths I think we can draw from this
podcast first poor Eddie Bravo that idiot such a sweet man such
such a stupid man yeah second dinosaurs second you can follow
us on at knowledge underscore fight oh George trying to end the
show there it is yeah you can go to our website knowledge fight
dot com you can go to iTunes you can download our podcast you
can leave a review you can do all kinds of fun things yep
we're on Facebook we are on Facebook and then I think the
ultimate second truth mm-hmm that I was getting towards mm-hmm was
that unlike Eddie Bravo mm-hmm a poor sweet innocent idiot fooled
by this complicated world strongly disagree with wherever you're going
this poor fool wrongly disagree with who has no chance of surviving
in this life unlike him there are evil man oh oh oh now I'm back
there are bearded evil man okay there are men I thought you were
trying to present the bearded guy as a fucking sympathetic figure
how dare you how dare you miss under I said unlike poor Eddie
Bravo anyways I I accept your apology even though it is tacitly
not given I miss her there are there are these men who just
refused to hang up pictures mm-hmm who just who when they were
young had all of their teeth removed mm-hmm and replaced by a
CIA dentist insist on counseling Owen shroyer through existential
crisis oh they've given so many Owen shroyer's vaccines and
then deny that vaccines work this is one of the clean vaccines oh
exactly as it rhymes there's a kernel of truth to it and I'll tell
you about this guy mm-hmm I'll tell you Dan John Rappaport can go
fuck himself in this case I agree Andy and Kansas you're on the
earth thanks for holding well Alex I'm a first-time caller I'm a
huge fan I love your work I love you
