Knowledge Fight - #1086: Tucker, The Man And His Texan Part 2

Episode Date: October 20, 2025

In this installment, Dan and Jordan wrap up Alex's troubling interview with Tucker and learn that developing super-powers isn't as easy as it should be.

Ina, nah, no, no, no, no, no, knowledge fight. Dan and Jordan, I am sweating. Knowledgefight.com. It's time to pray. I have great respect for knowledge fight. Knowledge fight. I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys, saying we are the bad guys. Knowledge.

Dan and George. Knowledge fight. Rattle. Nader. I need money. Andy and Kansas. Andy and Kansas. Stop it.

Andy in Kansas. It's down to pray. Andy in Kansas. You're on the air. Thanks for holding. Hello, Alex. I'm a first-time calling. I'm a huge fan.

I love your world. Knowledge fight. Knowledgefight.com. I love you. Hey, everybody. Hey, welcome back to Knowledge Fight. I'm Dan. I'm Jordan. We're a couple dudes like to sit around,

worship at the altar of Celine, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. Oh, indeed we are, Dan. Jordan. Quick question for you. What's your bright spot today, buddy? My bright spot today, we're continuing. It's McGiver.

It's McGiver. All right. I love this fucking show. So here's the deal. Okay. I've described to you some of the episodes of McGiver up to this point. Yes, you have.

And how would you characterize the antagonists on this show? The people who ease going up again. I mean, I would go probably like a face, but in front of an organization, you know, like, I'm the evil guy, but actually I work for a blugie-bulge evil corporation. Maybe, but it's like a terrorist group of some sort, someone with an evil plan. Borderline comic book villain, but pull it back to be like a factory owner. So I'm on episode six, and here's what happens. He gets a call from a buddy of his who's in the Amazon. on.

Birds are scared. And so this guy is trying to... Birds are scared. Birds are scared. Okay. So this guy in the Amazon is like, I got to call in McGiver. We've got to see what the fuck's going on with this. So birds are scared.

End of sentence. There's something going on deep in the jungle. Uh-huh. And, you know, you obviously are thinking, well, this is going to be some sort of a mining operations. There's going to need a... Whatever. McGiver's got to kick some ass.

Of course. Placate the birds. Otherwise, he's just an ornithologist, right? Mm. Yeah. So he goes and helps his buddy. Uh-huh. They end up finding this guy named Trumbo

who runs a chocolate plantation in the middle of the Amazon because they need a guide to take them into the Amazon and the local authorities no one will allow a guide. So I got to go talk to Trumbo. They go to this guy's chocolate place.

He eventually agrees to take them himself. So they go on a trek into the Amazon to find the big villain of the episode Ants. All right. So he is an ornithologist. It's a bunch of ants. Wait, so there's a bunch of ants.

Yes. Okay. So how is McGiver's specific skill set going to apply to a lot of ants? Well, you know, they try a bunch of things. What, naturally? So, yeah, everybody runs away from the plantation because they're scared of the ants. Are they the kind of ants that are just like, ah, they'll just overflow everything. Okay.

It's miles of ants. Just unstoppable ants. McGiver's buddy trips and falls into the ants. Dead. Eaten immediately. Immediately. All right. So there's a lot of ants.

We're talking about scary ants. Yeah. This has happened before. There have been ant landslides or whatever. But I don't think they kill you that fast. I don't know. I've never been eaten by ants before. Right.

It's a terrifying situation. And so McGiver and Trumbo have to figure out how to protect the plantation. Sure. And so their first option is to, flood some of the stuff, some of the... Build like a moat thing. Yeah. Right, right, right.

I know that ants are too smart for your fucking moat. They can build boats out of ants. No, no, no. Not quite. Okay. What they do is they end up going up the trees and biting leaves off the trees, which they then use as boats to go across the water.

Yes. Brilliant! The masterminds! So McGiver constructs a flamethrower. Right. That's going to keep a... Bay once they have crossed the moat. Right, right, naturally.

So they, of course, build rock walls. No, the fire. They run out of fuel. Oh, okay. That'll happen. And so McGiver has to construct a suit, a protective suit, and make a bomb to blow the dam. Right. Flood the entire valley and drown all the ants.

All right. So he manages to do that. Okay. And they save the chocolate plantation. Now, I put this forth to you. perhaps there should have been a consultation with somebody about whether or not it's more important for the ants to be there than the chocolate plantation.

Yeah, I think there's a question of it being a natural thing. Natural force. Excuse me, Mr. McIver. Can you please tell me the story again? You built a suit and then blew up our dam unilaterally without talking to anybody? In this case, the world we're experiencing. expected to understand.

Yeah. The dam only exists in order to facilitate the chocolate plantation. Sure. Okay, okay, okay. So it's not screwing over any other local agriculture or anything. Yeah. Okay, I got you. I got you.

Yeah, it's a sacrifice that they make in order to save the plantation from the ants. Fair enough. My concerns are taken care of it. It's fucking insane that it's ants. Why, why, why, why, why, why, why? He's friends with the bird guy. Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure. But what else does this guy call McIver about?

Everything? Does this guy call McGiver on... Anytime an animal's fucking scared? Like a drop of the hat. Like, MacGyver! Yeah. Why him? Why him?

I don't know, but it's great. And why not, once you find out its ants? Why not call an ant guy? Well, the guy who calls in Magyver is like really excited about it being ants. And he starts taking pictures of them. Right. Which is what leads to his death because he is not paying attention and falls into the ants. The fool.

Also, trumbo is played by a guy named David Ackroyd, which I was sure was Dan Aykroyd's brother. Not related. Nope. Unrelated. Crazy. Just coincidence. Yep. There are more than one name.

But Ackroyd? I've never heard it but once. Yeah. So. What's your bright spot? My bright spot, Dan is. Oh, wait. Sorry.

Yeah. No kisses. No smooches? Not even once? Well, I mean, listen. It's all dudes. You're not going to want to kiss those ants. Yeah.

And it's all like dudes he's helping really. Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah. At one point, he does save a villager who's trapped under a boat and she was a woman. Right. And I was like, oh, he's going to kiss that lady. Not the time.

Not the time. We're still running away from ants. Yeah, too many ants. Too many ants in the business. But I'm sorry. I interrupted. Sure. No, no problem.

My bright spot is that there's a guy who plays baseball. His name is Shohei Otani. I heard him. Right. Now, he's very good at baseball. But he did something that is not possible. He played in the fourth game of the National League Championship Series. This is the game that they were up three to nothing.

This is the game that would take them to the World Series. This would send them to the World Series. Showy Otani was pitching in this game, naturally. He was also hitting because he's the only player on the world who can do that. So the first thing he did in the first inning was he struck out the side, right? Three guys. Not bad. Gone.

Right? And then the next thing he did, the very next thing he did, because he's the pitcher and the leadoff hitter, was he struck out the side, and then he went and hit a home run. That's embarrassing. That's, that's, that's, that's disrespectful. It is very disrespectful. It's very disrespectful. But now let me tell you what happens over the next several innings. Okay. He strikes out seven more people. That's good.

In six innings, no runs, and then he hits two more home runs. Jesus. The man hit three home runs through six innings, struck out 10, won the game by himself. He's like the MacGyver of the game. baseball. It's insane. It's not possible to do that stuff. Do you think that he's bored? No, no, because not only that, not only did he do those things. He didn't just, you know, because there have been pitchers who threw sheer luck or adrenaline or whatever who have won game single-handedly in the past in the postseason. Sure. Throw nine inning, complete game,

shut out, hit a home run, won the game, that whole thing. Jeff Supon. Something like that. Maybe. Maybe. One of those Cardinals guys, I think hit a home run. be like it would be a somebody hit a home run that just barely makes it out 348 feet something like that showy otani hit a baseball outside of the baseball park right and it's one of three home runs yeah yeah the total of which they they put it together was like 1,400 feet between the three of them they're inventing new ways to say he hit the ball really far they have to try and create new forms of like, oh, well, if you lined up all of his home runs back to back to back, it would be a mile.

And we've already had Bugs Bunny do the, like, stickers on the ball. Absolutely. Absolutely. That's fucking nuts. It is, it's genuinely nuts. There's, like, you couldn't imagine if you had written something, like if Carl Sandberg or Ring Lardner was writing a, like, baseball player sells his soul to the devil to become the greatest baseball player

of all time, the devil would make him a really, good hitter because to do both of those things would be unrealistic. It really seems to like he's going to have some real bad medical problems. Just from a physics standpoint of like how much strain that's putting on your

arm to pitch that much and hit. I think he might be made of solid steel. Man. He's a tree. He's either a tree or he's still young. Like he could hit 30 and then just be like you're dead now. He's 30.

He's 31. Oh, fuck. Yeah. No, he's unstoppable. Okay. He is an unstoppable, perfect hitting. He's a, it's ridiculous. Wow.

You shouldn't be able to do those things. Well, good for him. Yeah, it's great. Good for him. Breaking Records. The greatest to ever do a thing. But that's what I'm saying is at a certain point, you kind of have to start to get bored, unless someone can step up to be as good as you.

There was a moment when he hit his second home run, which was out of pitch that was about a foot inside off the plate. Like, you can't hit that pitch for a hit, let alone a thousand feet of it. But there was a moment and he hit it and his shoulders slumped like that. And he just looked up at it like, God damn. I'm too good. I'm so good. I am too good at this. Right. There's a point where apologies everybody. There's a point where humility doesn't work anymore and you have to turn into like a huge narcissist crazy person. I mean, there was the Michael Jordan game where he's the, you know, famously he's just going, I don't even know what's going on here, buddy.

I'm just great. What are you going to do, right? That was very much where we're at with Show Hey. Yeah. And we saw what happened with Jordan. He went crazy. Yeah. But this guy, he's got a dog.

Jordan had a dog. But he didn't like him. Yeah. His dog was called gambling. Yeah. So, Jordan, today we have an episode to go over. It is the conclusion of Alex and Tucker having their little bowl session. Right.

And I was thinking about maybe not covering this, but I'm deeply committed to giving you superpowers. And I really want to see this thing through. God damn. I take it it got a lot better. It's good. Yeah. So we're going to talk about this, but first, let's take a little moment to say hello to some new waltz. Ooh, that's a great idea.

So first, thanks for keeping my grad school commute from Casey to Columbia entertaining compared to what y'all do. an archaeologist, archaeology thesis is a piece of cake. Regards future curator of the Smithsonian secret Nephilim bones. Thank you so much. You're now, a policy walk. I'm a policy walk. Thank you very much. Hey, Columbia, Como.

Hey. Uh, go down to, uh, power plant over there. It's across from the Taco Bell on Providence. Hey. Uh, next, my spouse is currently receiving top surgery as I type this. I'm listening to your episode 1068 to distract my anxiety. I would love to get a shout for. a shout out for, I guess you could say,

my titty loser baby. Thank you so much. I'm a policy won. I'm a policy won. Thank you very much. Thank you. And to Andy and Cincinnati, so proud of you for going back to school.

Sorry for making you spend half of your free time listening to the worst ever Nazi shit to figure out what mint chips hole deal is. And I pray one day there may be free from that curse entirely. I am doubtful. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Thank you so much.

And we got a second credit of the mix, Jordan. So thank you so much to this subscription is being paid for by a collective comprised of one hen, two ducks, three squatting geese, four limerick oysters, five corpulent porpoises, six pairs of Don Alzavaro's tweezers, 6,000 Macedonians in full battle array, eight brass monkeys from the ancient sacred crypts of Egypt, nine apathetic, sympathetic, diabetic, old men on roller skates with a marked propensity towards procrastination and slough, and ten lyrical, spherical, diabolical denizens of the deep,

who all stall through the corner of the quo of the quay of the quivery all at the same time. Thank you so much. You're an hour technocrat. I'm a policy walk. Four star. Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant. Someone, someone, Sodomite sent me a bucket of poop. Daddy shark.

Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bam. Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent. He's a loser little, little titty baby. I don't want to hate black people. I renounce Jesus Christ. So thrilled to have Gary Busey on board. that's awesome that was that was that was i you need to hear it to actually understand what because i read a little bit of that and i was like well what i don't know what's going on here yeah but then the

moment you started reading it i was like oh fuck good call yep well done so uh we jump back in after alex's bathroom break yes which ended our last episode and they start talking a little bit about the covid and vaccines and stuff sure uh and this is a important issue to touch on because trump just recently got another COVID vaccine. Right. And the flu vaccine. Yeah. And it seems like he shouldn't have done that. Well, based on all their beliefs. Yeah. Oh, well. So Trump got the Vax? The COVID Vax? That's right. Last week, he bragged when he got his medical exam that he got the new experimental flu shot and the Pfizer booster, which his own HHS head basically said, don't give it to pregnant women and women

and adults. And that they've proven a racial or immune system is absolutely horrible. But after he had Albert Borla a few weeks to go at the White House, praising Pfizer, he's now gone on and gotten it as a PR stunt. So that really pissed off Trump's constituents. And we, you know, we hope he didn't really take it because we need the big guy. Well, yeah. And I think there's, unless I'm misreading it, there seems like a legitimate and very large study out of South Korea that shows a connection between the COVID vaccine cancer because of the effects on the human immune system and turns it off. So the anti-vax folks have a new fun study to take. tout that allegedly shows that the COVID vaccine is killing everyone, but it's just another

sloppy piece of inconclusive bullshit. This is a retrospective study that looked at people who got the COVID vaccine a year later and tried to assess relative risks of developing cancer and found that for many cancer types, the risk was significantly increased. On the surface, this looks like something that works for Alex's argument, but it's a bad paper for a number of reasons. The first is that the authors didn't consider confounding variables, like people having family histories of cancer, and that would change things a lot. The second is that idiots like

Alex and Tucker, who are promoting the study, don't take into account the phenomenon of surveillance bias. If you're somebody who's getting COVID vaccines and boosters, then it stands to reason that you're somebody who's making contact with medical professionals. The more interaction you have with doctors, the more likely it is that they'll diagnose something that might have been missed otherwise, so people who got more medical care often see increased diagnoses for things that other people would have, but not notice until the problems get severe. Experts who have analyzed this study say that this dynamic explains the increase in cancer diagnoses that the paper shows.

There's no evidence presented that there's a causal connection between vaccination and cancer, and Alex is just making up that the vaccine shuts off your immune system. If that were the case, we would have seen an almost unimaginable level of death all around the world, which Alex has been promising it's just around the corner for like the last four years. Yeah. I don't know if Alex is a true believer in this shit, but Tucker absolutely got the COVID vaccine, and it's a pretty damning look for Trump to get his shots at this point. He made RFK the head of health and human services, and his entire fan base wants him to hang Dr. Fauci. The anti-vaccine hysteria is such a huge part of Trump's appeal, so it should send a pretty clear message to his fans that he thinks they're stupid when he gets a COVID and flu shot in October 2025. Stoking the flames of anti-science shit helps Trump because it invalidates and weakens authority figures who aren't him.

So he's happy to do it, even if that means advising people to do things that are detrimental to their own health. But when he comes to his health, he's going to listen to the experts, not the dipshits that he's elevating and subjecting the public to. Come on. Yeah. Come on, guys. You get it. That's, listen. Hey, you become king to get the good shit.

Right? Like if I'm king, I'm not going to wallow the same with you. you fucking idiots made me king but that's because you're dumb yeah rich people are still going to have access to safe abortions yeah regardless of what laws they pass that other people are going to be subjected to rich people and powerful people are going to have vaccines no matter what it's the fun thing about being rich and powerful right yeah they want to hurt others yeah yeah yeah we're great so maybe yeah trump fucking bragging about getting a shot of course he is a bragger oh my god um Maybe it was a fake shot. Wait, wait, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. If you say that for serious, in real life, you have to then consider all the possible ways that it could be fake and the reasons for it being fake. And none of those make any sense whatsoever. Well, the one big distinction I would see is whether Trump knows that it's fake or not.

Sure. Like, if he knows it's fake, then he's trying to get people to take a dangerous thing by, pretending to get it himself, which is murder. That's real bad. Yeah. If he doesn't know, then somebody's trying to murder him. Right. Anyway, yep, could be fake.

Yeah. I don't understand that. Do you think it was real? If I had to speculate on a conspiracy theory, pure speculation, Borla was there a few weeks ago. He did that $75 million deal to lower drug costs, which is a good thing, Trump got. And they said, hey, we got some bad PR. Why don't you say you took the shot?

But I'd have to purely speculate. You talked to Trump a lot more than anybody. else pretty much so maybe you can ask him why the hell he did that do you know anyone who has taken i mean who would take that i mean it's poison obviously poison i think there's two percent uptake on the boosters now and it's no longer recommended by hs which means it has no longer has liability protection uh so again that is uh trump who would say at the rallies oh take your shot they would boo him so he quit doing it and so it's things he does like that and then some trump supporters think we're in a They go, you don't criticize anything Trump does.

No, all the time we do. Like when Bondi said, let's pass hate speech laws. And that's what the ADL wants, the Southern Private Law Center. People got pissed. She reversed herself that day. So no, it's good for the constituents. When we see something wrong, we put Trump in there to carry out our operations to restore the public, not to take experimental gene therapies.

Well, it's not an attack. I mean, I'm sure you've had times in your life where you've been off on some lunatic tangent and people you love members of your family are like, hey, we love you. It certainly happened to me a million times. people I love are like I don't think it's a good idea of whatever you're doing and you're grateful for that right well that's absolutely so but if I spoke a cigar a few you know here and there is a bad for you maybe spoke a lot of them you'll you know might get lip cancer or something really I don't believe that I'm not here saying kids

you should smoke cigars you know the difference is Trump is up there doing it so it's just another one of those things he does like I think I'll give cruise missiles to Ukraine it's makes you wonder what's going on sometimes I'm glad we don't have Kamala Harris. Let's get that straight, but I am a little concerned. I serve two evil stuff, but hey, I'm the guy who's all about principles. These guys are so desperate for any way to pretend Trump didn't get the vaccine because what it implies. It implies that he knows that the anti-vax people are stupid, and he's exploiting them for their support and power that they provide. This point Alex makes about Pam Bondi is interesting, though, because he says that she came out in favor of hate speech laws, but then got severe pushback from the base.

so she stopped the stuff that same day. He's talking about her interview after the Charlie Kirk murder, where she talked about Josh Shapiro's house being firebombed and how her Department of Justice was going to go after hate speech, which was not protected speech. Sure. That was on September 15th, and she did get a lot of heat for that, which led to a tweet that she posted the next day

where she tried to do damage control. In the tweet, she says, quote, hate speech that crosses the line into threats of violence is not protected by the First Amendment. It's a crime. for far too long we've watched the radical left normalized threats call for assassinations and cheer on political violence that era is over she's entirely incorrect about the first amendment and actually it reflects this is doubling down on the call to punish speech as opposed to what alex is pretending she did yeah on october eighth she was sitting right next to trump at the antifa propaganda event where she said that he said that he took away the freedom of speech involved in flag burning Right. She's illustrated a consistent ignorance and hostility towards free speech, and Alex would have that position if he was anything other than a spineless hack who's in the pocket of power.

Right. Well, there is a slight difference, right? When she said it originally, she didn't make it clear that some hate speech is totally okay. Mm-hmm. Right. Second time around, she did make it pretty clear, like, we're only going after hate speech that's like, hey, these Nazis are bad, right? Yeah. When you make sure that you include a little thing about the radical left in there, you're fine.

Everybody's fine. When you talk about like, hey, we're going to go after hate speech, Josh Shapiro, a Democrat's house was firebombed. It makes the Nazis worried that you're going to- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, you're going to hold us accountable for this shit? Right. Yeah. So I guess it is kind of her going back on-in-a-way. In a way, in a way, I think it's more like clarifying a point.

Like, just to be clear, all bets are off. But at those imaginary left people. That clarification doesn't. help if you have a problem with her position on speech. Right, right, right, right. It really does clear things up and, you know, address your concerns if it's really just like, hey, our side should just be able to do everything. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely.

Yeah, I mean, I imagine, I imagine that it could go south if somebody in the Nazis was like, hey, everybody, we're going to really clamp down on violence. I bet they would be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hmm. So Alex says, like, you know, Trump, he does this weird stuff, like give missiles to Ukraine. and get vaccines and seems high stakes for them to just be quote weird stuff he says he doesn't like free speech all this strange stuff sure so what's up with that what is up with that what is up with that what is going on well everybody knows trump's really weird in a good way in a lovable way but he does so much good and then he does so many just really bizarre zigs and zags that sometimes you just have to ask what's happening but You know, that video over a year ago of him and Kennedy, right for Kennedy endorsed him this year and a half ago,

that somebody shot of him on speakerphone, Kennedy, with Trump. And Trump's like, well, maybe it is too big a shot and maybe the kids shouldn't take it. Maybe you're right, you know, Bobby. That's the Trump we need. Not the Trump. Oh, look, I took my shot. It's so great.

Plus the flu shot, they admit, looked us up. They've never, in 50 years the flu shot, predicted the right mutation for that year's flu. And it lowers your immune system to the next. next year's flu. The flu shot paralyzed a relative of mine, a close relative of mine, briefly. Paralyzed down paralyzed, period. That a flu shot did that, fact.

Paralyzed Kennedy's larynx. Yeah. So I don't know. And is there any evidence the flu shot reduces overall mortality? You can look this up. It has never worked. It is an absolute total fraud. They've never picked the right mutation for it.

and so if it's not the exact mutation it doesn't work so over but over the population there's no evidence that the flu shot which you could get at your grocery store the nurse's officer wherever at work that it has reduced the number overall of dead people in the United States in a given year no so Alex in that clip he characterized Trump as a liar who changes his positions based on who he's talking to and what he wants to get out of them right he's happy to be really worried about the vaccines when he needs RFK to drop out of the race and endorse him but now not so much He's an asshole who exploits people. Even by the description, Alex wants to make it sound better than it is. Yeah. It's just pretty obvious. I don't know how language can alter the reality in the way that he wants it to. Yeah. Like, oh, hey, listen, I know.

Sometimes he does this weird stuff like cut off my feet. You know, and I like feet. You like feet. I'm pro feet. Not too much. Right. He likes feet too much. because he stole mine with a knife.

But he's not that bad. It's just a weird thing. It's just a weird quirk. He steals people's feet. Ah, what are you going to do? He needed them at the time. Eh. So Alex has this talking point

that they've never correctly predicted the correct mutation for the strain of the flu, and that's just a bullshit anti-vax talking point that reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of how annual flu shots are designed. He's acting like it's an all-or-nothing thing, where if they guess the right strain, then the vaccines work.

But if they don't, then they do nothing. Ah, it sucks. Flu vaccines in the United States are trivalent, which means that it includes protection from the expected predominant strain of two types of influenza A, which is H1N1 and H3N2, and influenza B. But no vaccine is 100% effective. Given the variety of influenza viruses that are out there in the world and how they mutate, the vaccines are usually about 40 to 60% effective at stopping transmission, and studies have shown

a decrease in mortality from the flu of between one third and one half. in the time since their introduction widespread in 1945. One of the reasons that Alex can get away with this sort of lazy propaganda that he puts out is that he can point to the 2014-2015 flu season, where the vaccine was only about 19% effective. It's believed there to be a situation where the vaccine was poorly matched to the circulating strains, but it's important to understand the context behind that. Our flu vaccines don't provide as good of protection against H3N2,

because that strain has a higher likelihood of undergoing rapid antigenic changes. The versions of H1N1 and influenza B that researchers are using to plan the vaccine in advance, they're likely to be structurally similar to what they'll look like when the actual flu season arrives, but H3N2 mutates in more ways that interfere with vaccine effectiveness. So when an H3N2 strain of the flu is the most prominent strain in a particular flu season, doctors are already playing at a disadvantage. And it happened that in the 2014-2015 season, H3N2 was the largest flu strain, and it mutated in the time between the vaccine's creation and the flu season.

It was the worst combination of possible circumstances, so it becomes the archetype that Alex pretends reflects every flu season, and it's total bullshit. Yeah. It's just nonsense, and him talking like this, to somebody who knew what he was talking about, they would be like, you're an idiot. Yeah.

But he's talking to Tucker. So he's like, oh, my God, no shot ever worked. Yeah. I don't know what he's talking about, and I still think he's an idiot. Well, I think you could get some context clues. Right. A thousand episodes of our show.

Right. But second, it is, it is, I understand why it's so hard to communicate to a big structure of the population, what they do. Because what that is sounds so much like magic. You know, it is very much like, how can I trust you to know so many fucking things?

That sounds fake as shit. That sounds fake as shit. It sounds like you made it up. Oh, there's a dominant strain. Of what? I can't see shit, man. I don't even know if germs are real. That's where we're at in some places.

We're at germ theory might not be real. And you're telling me about antigenic mutations. Of course we're not able to communicate. Yeah, I mean, like, I think that Alex and Tucker might as well believe, that like witches work at B.S.L. 4 level labs. Absolutely. Like it's not science. It's people with cauldrons.

Yes. Yes. I genuinely think that for a lot of those people, what we just need to do is have two wings of the CDC, one of which, which outfits. And then everybody will be like, oh, well, that's the good one for me. I don't think so because I think that that, you know, you don't want to, I think in health care, generally, you don't want to validate people's delusions. Because generally, that ends up spiraling into further trouble.

Sure. I agree in a way, and here's how I'm going to put your point. They need better messaging. The CDC needs better messaging. Well, to imagine that people will just get on board is delusional in and of itself. You know? Right. That's kind of the situation there.

People aren't just going to like, oh, oh, shit. Well, I didn't know H3N2 was the dominant strain. Right. And there's a lot of people who have strong motivations not to understand those things and not to get the messaging. Yeah, motivated unlearning. People who have supplement companies, for instance. Yep. So anyway, science has been discredited. So given how obviously discredited science has been in the last five years where normal people are like, I don't know what this is, but I'm against it, wouldn't now be the time to mandate it? a total halt to any frank and science underway where we're trying to create life for clone people or change the human genome.

Gain a function. Gain a function, which is now like universal. Gain of function didn't go away. Gain of function became much more popular. Science hasn't been discredited. It just looks that way when you listen to lying idiots like Alex who don't know or care about science at all. These dipshits think they see demons.

So just on a real ground level, it seems unwise to rely on them for critiques of any scientific thing. They want to create a world where it's not seen as insane to rant about demons, so they engage in fraudulent attacks on the foundations of science, which would tell them there aren't demons there. Yeah. Gain of function research is less common than these guys want to make it seem, and I would guess that neither of them could give a coherent or consistent definition of what it actually is. That being said, having some skepticism about the risk-benefit calculation with gain-of-function research isn't the most unreasonable position for someone to have. The way these guys expressed that skepticism

and all their beliefs around the issue are deeply insane, but a rational person could reasonably have some doubts about whether it was worth it to do this stuff. So just to be clear. I mean, yeah, I here's what I say. Go crazy with gain of function. And I don't

mean to have a ton of people doing it. I'm meaning, what kind of functions can we gain? What else can we do anything with these things? What can't they do? Right. I think that I'm worried because of the way you're saying this and the way that I think Alex and Tucker talk about it.

Yeah. They look at it like you're giving a virus a knife. Right. You know? Like that's what I'm saying. I want to see if a virus can just take out a foot. Like what can we do here with viruses? You're a real foot heavy today.

Well, you know, the previous one just kind of rolls over. I, um, I, yeah, I, look, I don't, here's my line. Here's your line. Lightning and dead people Sure If you're doing Frankencience Right

And it's like that Yeah No you're against it I'm against it Okay all right Because I thought we were going The very opposite direction Well I have a nuanced take

Okay fair enough No government funding No government funding For bring people back to life Sown together With lightning Yes Yeah

I think that's fair I think that's fair If the private market wants to I don't want my tax dollars going to bring in Monsters to life Yeah

Too dangerous Fair enough. So the U.S. has turned on Big Pharma. Okay. And that's whatever. Trump needs to know that the American people have rejected Big Pharma. And they're tired of it and they hate Albert Borla. They hate Anthony Fauci.

We don't need to be seeing Albert Borla who's just as hated as Fauci at the White House. We need to see Fauci and Albert Borla indicted for the things they've done. Why not just strip immunity from the vaccine makers? wouldn't that we have a system in place it's been in place for ironic life where if you're making a consumer product that hurts people you can be sued and so people who make consumer products try to make them safe because there are consequences to selling poison that's exactly what should be done and that's the 86 that's like simple that's super simple like why not it's only been 19 I mean I remember

1986 was 39 years ago it's not that hard this is not like in the constitution that vaccine makers have you know blanket shield immunity and now they're calling gene therapy's vaccines. You know, they change the definition. So now anything they want to inject into you, they claims the vaccine and liability protection. Well, that's why Kennedy removing the recommended status by HHS and FDA. When you do that, it technically removes the protection of the liability protection. Technically, what are you talking about? I have no idea. He's really hedging his language here. Technically. Vaccines aren't the only pharmaceutical products that have liability protection. In fact,

Most medications that are available on the market have some form of it. You know how commercials for drugs have those long sections where they list off possible negative side effects? That's part of their liability protection. Yeah. All drugs have potential side effects, and you can't sue the drug manufacturer for experiencing one of these side effects if they were properly disclosed and you were aware of them when you agreed to take the medication. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If the drug company is lying about possible side effects and hiding the real safety issues with their product, then you can sue them. it's just kind of difficult because of the burden of proof that comes along with like showing that this caused the harm it's a hard lawsuit to make but you can still sue people prove i lied and then prove i did it to hurt you yeah big pharma totally sucks and needs to be regulated much more heavily but removing liability protections isn't the way to go about that if we want a medical research industry that can attract the kind of investment it requires to make new innovative medicines then they can't be in a position where they can be sued by anyone

at any time about anything. If you don't want that, though, like you don't want medical breakthroughs, then you really would want these companies to be bogged down in a ton of legal bullshit. Yep. And that's a position you would expect to hear from people who make millions from supplement sales

pushing fake pills on their audience, insisting these are the real cures that the man doesn't want you to know about. Medical innovation is a direct threat to their business model and forcing these pharmaceutical companies to address mountains of frivolous lawsuits is one of the best ways to remove their competition selling colloidal silver and

the milk, the milk, the colostrum. Yeah. And Shilajit. Yeah. I mean, it's, it's so weird because it's like, ah, people are fed up with big pharma for doing all of the things that our companies do. But because we're unregulated, we can just lie about it. You know, like they're regulated to the point where they have to tell you when they're screwing you over. Yeah. There's a liability protection on Alex's part for the supplements that he sells. Yeah. Because there's no rules. Right. Right.

It is interesting that there is a competing set of industries in the healthcare industry, one of which is interested in healing people, but maybe not necessarily curing people. And another which is like, people better stay sick forever because

then they will keep buying my shit. We have one, well, and honestly, they might not be sick to begin with, but I need to convince them they need my shit. Exactly. Exactly. You have one system that does not work and is wholly corrupt. Yep. And you have another system that does work and is mostly corrupt.

Right. So what you need to do is not favor this. The corruption part needs to be ripped out of there. Right. And that's never going to happen with the side that doesn't work. Nope. Because without corruption, supplement industries collapse. But, yeah, you need to work on.

on making the system that does work better. Right. Getting rid of liability protection around vaccines is counterproductive move. It's what they, it's what I don't want to say they. I want to say in specific people who are trying to dismantle the public education system do is they put poor administrators into the public schools. So people are like, well, public schools suck. And it's like, no, that guy sucks on purpose. Yeah.

Yeah. The system that is good and robust. Right. were run right it could work yeah if people did it yeah yeah so uh more people these days are talking about god uh more yeah yeah so many okay do you feel a rise in do you feel like people are talking about god and spiritual matters more than they did 10 years ago i mean clearly they are where's that going i saw you with a guest a few weeks ago talk about this is well known i've talked to everybody that's done it i haven't done it almost everyone that takes deep

either from the toad or the ayahuasca plant these creatures show up that look like court gestures or space aliens do different things and say sure there are too many humans you need to wipe out the population then you'll become gods it's the same message and they've had groups of people they've done studies you need to wipe out you need to kill people so you can become god yes you need to depopulate you fucking piece of shit you know people who've heard that message oh absolutely that they've had whole groups of studies that have had group hallucinations of this. Can I, I mean, I don't know.

I'm not the most spiritually sensitive person. I'm hardly a theologian, but if some demon is telling you to kill people so you can become God, like we can say that's bad, right? Absolutely. Yeah, man. Totally.

Totally. So there's a rise in talking about God in these people because the right-wing political movement in this country has decided to become theocratic. There's no sincere, interest in God or Jesus are engaging in a real spiritual practice. Media figures who are promoting right-wing politics have just realized that attaching their connection to power to divine right is an effective marketing tool.

It's worked for a long time. Yeah. When Tucker says that more people are talking about God, what he means is that he recognizes that God is a brand, and that brand is pretty hot right now. There's a God trend among far-right idiots, and they've found that it's easy to sell the idea of religion without having to be constrained by the morality or the teachings of said religion. That's where we are. That said,

I will say, and I'll make this statement publicly. DMT demons who tell you to kill everyone are probably bad influences. I will side, I'll give Tucker his props there. I mean, listen, if you are taking advice from anyone

who appears to you in a drug induced dream, you're in the wrong. You're in the wrong. Even if Gene Hackman dies. Those are the sacrifices. we make. I think when you take drugs, you're capable of having insights.

Sure. I think that's possible. Sure. Sure. I don't think that listening to entities that you imagine is a great call. Yeah. Maybe taking on what they say and thinking about it. Yeah. Maybe. I think people just need to really change the music they listen to while they're

doing all these drug trips. Like, that's why we have Prague Rock. So you can see weird shit and not be freaked out by it. Right. That's the whole reason yes, exists and bread exactly yeah drop some acid and turn on bread just fucking listen to those things go and then you'll move on with your life jesus so uh this next clip yeah is for your consideration okay this is a clip that i would send to the webbies okay i don't know the webby i don't know who tucker would qualify for an award i don't know like can't get an oscar right right right uh daytime talk show

Emmy. Yeah, sure. Let's do that. Some sort of an acting award. Yeah, okay. Because this is amazing. Oh. They say the devil's greatest trick was convincing the world he didn't exist. I think that's the second biggest trick. I think convincing the world that good doesn't exist is the devil's biggest trick. Yes, yes.

Can you, can you fly? I think that I'm not exactly sure what you're saying, but I know that you're telling the truth right now. Can you, can you? Can you? Oh, my God. I think that it was amazing the way that Tucker perfectly captured an awareness that Alex just said a catchphrase. And he wanted to double down on it, but immediately realized there's no depth here.

No. Oh, no. Can you just talk more about that? Keep going. Keep going. I jumped in too soon. I jumped in too soon. He is nominated for quickest loss of steam in a podcast host.

Man, and that was such a good revivalist. Yeah, yeah, too. That had that. That was religious. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what you said, but I know it's. true. I don't know what you said, but I know it's true is a great thing to say out loud. Yeah, it's pretty cool. So they talk a bit about how abortion's bad. Sure. How everyone's evil.

So the gift is to see good. I do think that's the trick. Because I mean, no one needs a tutorial on evil. It's all around us. It's super obvious. It no longer disguises itself. Abortion for the sake of abortion. Like, what is that? Well, it's human sacrifice, just Canaanite. The DNC, doing abortion's inside a book. Completely. For the sake of abortion, not to improve the life of the girl, or she's a 14-no, rape victim. It's just like, no, abortion is inherently good because it's killing a person. Sure. That is all out in the open now. Nobody is confused about its existence.

What you don't get a lot of is the recognition that good is more than equal. It's a larger and opposing force. God is bigger than Satan. and you don't get that sense. Like, nobody talks about that. You don't see it. How do you find that? So many people purposely get turned off of the system by going to a church,

whether it's Catholic, Protestant, any of it. And I'm a very empathic person. So growing up, I would feel at churches and you get invited here or there really creeped out, not by the parishioners, but by the people in the system that are trained. Because if you're- That is for sure. gosh, where I feel the strongest demonic energy is in a lot of these big churches and a lot of these big things, because that's where the devil's sitting as forces, and it's energetic.

And so the Christ criticized the Pharisees, Sadducees, constantly he said, you go pray up on the hill and for everybody. You talk about how perfect you are all day, but really you're of your father of the devil and the synagogue of Satan. So Alex isn't creeped out by big churches. He's just creeped out by big churches that wouldn't like him. He was good friends with Tex Mars who ran a big white identity church for decades Alex was a huge promoter of Tim Ballard

and the sound of freedom shit even past the point where it was clear that Ballard was a fucking monster. For most of his career, he was broadcast on Christian shortwave frequency WWCR, and if Alex's imaginary numbers about his audience are correct, he would be the pastor

of the world's largest evangelical program. Yeah. Alex doesn't get creeped out by demonic energy at churches. He just doesn't like it when other people are using religion in ways he can't profit from. That's it. Religion's about the money.

What are you guys doing? It's a brand. What are you guys doing? Yeah. You're using this brand that I feel ownership of in order to do other things. And I don't get a piece. So here's my question. All right.

We're dealing with very serious men who know about the hidden secrets of the universe. Totally. So when you get an abortion, right, and the dead baby goes to heaven, what does it does it look like a zygote still like does it remain in the stage of gestation is it does it bring an amniotic sack with it is it stuck there or do you see like a different aged version of what that zygote could have become well i i don't want to tip my hand about another subject that comes up later but the subject of uh peter teal's anti-iced uh lectures comes up great um and i did read a bit of it. Okay. A bit of the Guardian published a bunch of the... A bunch of his lectures?

Yeah. Okay. So he's the Antichrist? No. Oh, okay. No, but he has some thoughts. Okay. Good.

Great. I'm sure that they're good and should absolutely be in the witchess man's mind. Well, the reason that I bring this up is because one of the things he speculates is that when you die, you show up in heaven at age 33. At age 33? At age 33. Yeah. What a great age to show up in heaven.

So maybe the aborted fetuses show up and then at 33. I'm going to be real. I'm going to be honest with you. I've been kind of on a fitness kick for the past eight months or so. I look a lot better than I did at 33. Can I stick with 38? Nope. 33 is the ideal age.

I should have fucking done it. How was I supposed to know? Right. But also is it an ideal version of you at 33 or was it the real where you were? Because I'm going to, if that's the case, I'm going to be back into booze in heaven. At what point do you just allow me to pick a skin of the year, you know, like where, we're, like in the in the closet i'm just going through like oh 22 looks nice and i put it on you know but what are we talking about right what are we talking about with the zyko i i don't know i think i

think quite frankly uh peter teal is unfortunately the only person who has given me a direct answer on this that's fair so that's all i have to offer that's fair so uh you were saying these are serious men who know about the hidden secrets in the universe yeah absolutely and uh so when Alex is talking about God Tucker he should recognize he's talking to a baby that's really where it all is and it comes

down to your spiritual inclination but I just recommend with people personal relationship with God praying to God saying I want to be good I want to recognize truth I want to know what truth is I want to open myself up to you I'm an imperfect I repent for what I've done and I want you to cleanse me and then show me

the truth and then show me how to be a better person and then show me after that what the mission is you have for me and literally if you do that through a process it may take days may take months may take years wait what then the adventure begins and then all the sudden you're being given like intel and stuff like and like literally just you have to learn to go with it it's never wrong and it's it's god and it's there and it's your personal relationship and then obviously people get this relationship they all want to teach other people and and god says get together in groups that's great. But Christ didn't try to go get the Sadducees and the Pharisees and the priest

class to join him. He said their minds were closed. He went to the prostitutes and the tax collectors and the robbers and the thieves because they were already outcast. But that's where he found people that it were already under evil's control but weren't arrogant about it who were looking for a way out. And so, I mean, I think that's really what it comes down to is a spiritual relationship with God. Tucker has to be so embarrassed to just have to nod along with this. Alex is sitting there explaining that there's a recruitment process into God's special forces and there might be a waiting period where you aren't getting the secret intel and missions from God, but if you do it right, that will come. Could take a few years. Don't worry. This is the kind of stuff that you should

understand is only said by children and scammers. Alex also seems to have a fundamental misunderstanding about Jesus reaching out to the outcasts of society. It seems like today what Alex's entire political ideology revolves around is punishing the types of people Jesus would have hung out with, while reaching out to and trying to win over the sanctimonious elites. Right. Alex spends so much time covering for people like Tucker or Elon who are insanely rich, stuck in their ways, and beyond reach. At the same time, he advocates for using the power of the state

against the most vulnerable groups of people who are the most in need of grace and generosity. So I think he just doesn't get it or he gets it and he's evil. Yeah. I mean, I think it's really, really hard. that's one of the hardest things for a lot of religious people with the with the whole jesus because if you take it as a whole then kind of what he's saying is if everybody's equal sinners in the eyes of the lord we are all the same those guys are more fun than you so i'm going to hang out with them i don't know if that was it's a strange it's a strange lesson to learn

but it's there i don't i don't know if that's fully what jesus was all He just liked a good party. They were so much more fun. I don't disagree with that. Did you see the painting of The Last Supper? They're all in the same side. You can't even have a good time. Well, I mean, that's just staging.

You know, like that's like a TV thing. You know, like it makes sense. Yes. I think, look, obviously part of it. Sure. People are more fun. They're more fun. Yeah.

But another part of it is, you know, I didn't come to convert the pious. Sure. Or whatever, you know, like. Come on, man. There's a piece of it. Yeah, that's there. So religion. Yep.

Inside job. I think that Alex means to say that religion is a process that happens within you. Sure. But he accidentally says that it's an inside job. Oh. Really, it's an inside job. They've got to somehow open up the channel to God and then they'll see everything that's happening. And then God will give them a message and a mission of what they should do.

And I don't want to say all churches are bad because there's a lot of good people in the churches regardless. It's just that the last 120 years, the Rockefeller Foundation, the ecumenical movement and all of that has really moved into the churches. We see that with all the rainbow flags and all, you know, the famous cathedrals in England now,

festooned with all the leftists, you know, graffiti and garbage. I mean, it's been captured, is my point. But people can't get turned off by that and say, well, God's dead. No, no. Satan has occupied the so-called temples, but God isn't in the temple. God is inside us. Do the temples get torn down? Like, did the last vestiges of the old civilization get erased and Christians start anew?

Like, what is this? How does this unfold? With iPhones? I think, I mean, I think that's up to how God influences everybody. I think we could, over time, retake those things. but the Satanist and the leftist, the power hungry, they think if they can take over the skin of something and occupy it, that they can fool people that are looking for God, but that's actually triggering the Great Awakening.

So I think some of the buildings get torn down, some of the buildings get retaken. But at the end of the day, you know, God's temple is with us. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Right. So West Bend Stravy is not where God lives. No. No, that's so important to remember.

we don't need to tear down churches. Yes, that is good to remember me. I suppose. You know, here's the thing about, here's the thing about prophets and psychics and all that stuff. We all know this. They're no good when you need them.

No. You know, like I'm asking you a direct question. What's going on? What are we doing? Do we tear it down? What's going on? And he's like, it depends. No, that's not what you're for.

God talks to you. Yeah, all Alex can credibly say in this position is that's not my mission. Right? God has not enlisted me on the secret intel. and maybe it's on a need-to-know basis. Maybe someone else has gotten that mission, but I have not. Yeah.

I guess that's the only answer that makes sense. Really all that they're talking about here is Alex wants, and Tucker, they want a more fundamentalist version of Christianity to be more prominent. Right. They do not like the idea that a more tolerant and accepting version of Christianity has become more mainstream over the last decades, and they want to revert back to Concord. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I mean, you know, a lot of people thought that the Ayatollah Khomeini taking over in the Iranian Revolution was good for women. So I think that they could probably be good. They could pull it off. Yeah, I think so.

So Alex has some spirits in him. Uh-huh. And not booze, although at times, sometimes the devil comes into him. Uh-oh. And I get tempted by evil. You know, sometimes like a devil jumps into me. And I mean, by that. I'm just busy, I'm tired, I'm whatever, and I catch myself, and I'm like, whoa, whoa, you know, for a minute I was like, you know, turning into everything I'm trying to fight. So I'm not up here on some high horse, like, you know, like, I've got all the answers and I'm perfect because anybody empathic can, you know, tune into different frequencies and things that are happening. But at the end of the day, your heart matters, you know, King David did a lot of bad things and sent his best buddy off to get killed because he's less than after his wife, but he really repentant and God said your matter for my heart. So the end of the day, it's where you point your soul. Alex can't handle the idea that he might be wrong sometimes and that he may do things that hurt other people.

That reality is so painful to him that he has to give up his own ability to control his actions. Everything good he does is because of himself and he deserves credit for doing those things. But when he does something bad, it's because a devil jumped into it. He's very able to say,

I'm not a perfect person, but the imperfection that he has is the result of the demon swaying him, not because he's a bad person who's motivated by he. greed and functions by lying. He's willing and excited to confess to abstract meaningless sins because they allow him to look contrite and like a pious person, but in reality, those confessions are just meant to mask the

real ways that he's imperfect. Yeah. And that is that he's a bad person, doesn't care, and operates in an intentionally harmful way. Yep. Also, Tucker just did that interview with Lee Strobel, where he was pretty clear that demons can't enter people who are sincerely Christian because the Holy Spirit is taking up the space. where they would go.

Right. I guess we have to conclude that either Lee was making that up or Alex isn't really a Christian. He's who we need to ask about the size of aborted fetuses in heaven. Lee Stroble? Yeah, he clearly has some idea of where souls fit. Or we could ask that kid who pretended to go to heaven. Equally good answers. Yeah, he's been there.

Yeah, that's true. That's true. So I told you that Peter Thiel and his... his lecture would come up. Yes. And here is where that is brought up. And Tucker's response about this is so funny. While we're on theology, exactly, while we're on theology,

what do you think of Peter Thiel's whole anti-Christ lecture? You know, I haven't seen it. I have talked to him about it at great length. I didn't. I think it's really interesting. I'm not, I didn't really get to the punchline on that. I don't. So the question everyone has is, okay, who's the Antichrist?

I think it's maybe there's more than one. I don't know. System. Right. So I would just say I'm not taking a pass on the question. But I don't. This is so far out of my depth. I mean, I'm just sort of at the I'm for Jesus stage of things.

But I'm glad that there's a conversation about it. Tucker sure sounds diplomatic about Peter Thiel's lecture on the Antichrist. Seems like he kind of recognizes how much. of a softball that is for him to scream about, but he knows he can't because it's Teal. One wonders how much restraint these guys would have if Yuval Noah Harari did a lecture about the Antichrist and how much they would support these kinds of ideas being discussed. It's almost like they probably wouldn't even read it or engage with it. They would simply see Antichrist and use it for their advantage.

Right, but then they see Peter Thiel and they're like, oh my God, rich guy who likes Trump. Yep. teal gave a series of four lectures on the antichrist last month and he had very strict rules that it was all off the record and people couldn't tell anyone what he said now obviously everybody knows what he said yeah because someone recorded the audio and gave it to the guardian and they published large sections of it people can dig into that at their own leisure but suffice to say it's stupid and there's a good reason he was trying to keep it private yeah and it's very funny for tucker to have this ambivalent oh this is out of my depth i don't know kind of answer he doesn't give of those kinds of answers. Yeah. Fuck you. You got attacked by a demon.

I don't know if I got to the punchline. Like, I'm glad, I'm glad people are, I'm glad the Antichrist is up in the air, you know, and that we're just talking about it. Is in play. I don't, I don't, you know, we shouldn't be ignoring him, you know, and so it's good that he's out there. But I just don't think I have any personal opinions on it. Right.

Whatsoever. But you do. I mean, well, I mean, it's the anti-Christ. So, as a good Christian, you know, obviously I would be against, uh, Not Christ. You got attacked by a demon. Wow, but I mean, it was very, it had, it was more scratchy. It was more scratchy.

You're skeptical of tech billionaires. Sure, but I mean, what, what is a tech billion? Right. If they like you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's a tech broionaire is what he is. So I think that the main point is, you know, something you touched on there. And that is that, like, let's not not talk about it.

Yeah. We got to talk about the antichrist. And that's dumb. We should be having, not just Peter Till, everybody, Donald Trump, you and I, we should be discussing revelation what's the scribes really happening now. Yeah. So we should be having, oh, God, he's the Peter Till's the Antichrist. He's talking about the Antichrist.

What? Because some people are like, well, what's he doing talking about the Antichrist? Well, I think we should all be talking about it. Well, because I think the temptation is to just ignore the whole topic. I mean, that's the world that I grew up in, where it was just never discussed. Well, 100%. People's sex lives were a frequent topic of conversation. Everyone was super liberal about that.

Like, no one was embarrassed of anything except any question that transcended the material was just considered. Like, death was considered totally off limits because it pointed to these obvious questions. Like, what happens then? Who the fuck are you? So I really welcome that. I think all healthy societies face death. Exactly. People go, oh, you're a Peter Thiel Dick writer.

No, you should be having a discussion by Antichrist. Why aren't you? And so what I got, I haven't seen the presentation. Oh, so people, I'm sorry, I miss a lot because I, I do think the internet's demonic. Sorry, I know why I work on the internet, but the whole thing makes me uncomfortable. So I haven't seen any of this,

but people are attacking Teal for this. Oh, I mean, it's like, oh, yeah. It's like they haven't even found out what he's saying. I've read some of the articles. I've tried to get tickets, but it was already sold out. But I wanted to see his view on it. But all I know is that we should be having a discussion about the antichrist.

I mean, we're having one already here. And so what is the antichrist? I think you need to know the enemy. I think you need to know. Well, one obvious hallmark from my, you know, frequent but very untutored reading of of those books in the New Testament is that the Antichrist reserves the powers of God for himself. He pretends to be God. You know, I'm all powerful.

I can, you know, worship me. I reserve the right to be all powerful, just to be clear. And by the way, that's most leaders in the world through all time. But those are signs of evil. You are not God. No one can worship. No one can worship you. Smash cut to Trump.

autographing Bibles. Right? What are we doing? This is dumb, and if Peter Thiel weren't someone that Alex and Tucker knew they're supposed to support, then doing a lecture series on the Antichrist would be evidence of a person working with the Antichrist. It would be predictive programming, trying to sneakly confess to the public that they're the Antichrist, so the public could, they agree in advance to worship him. Right. I think there's nothing that could be more destructive right now to public safety than for the president to start speculating about who may or may not be the antichrist. This isn't a productive or safe conversation to be had by politicians, and the idea that

Alex and Tucker could possibly want that speaks to how far they've gone, like, from the days of pretending to live in a shared reality. Yeah. They are just lost. Yeah. I also wanted to point out how you're not hearing any weird, abrupt commercial breaks in this episode. And that's because I've noticed that Tucker seriously front loads his ads.

Most of them are awkwardly jammed into the beginning of the episode, and there's two reasons that podcasts employ this kind of ad strategy. Oh, yeah. The first is that early ads command a higher rate than mid-roll or end-roll ads. You can charge more for early ads because you have a higher expectation that more people will be seeing them or hearing them. The second reason you would do this touches on that fact, and Tucker putting so much ad density at the start of the episodes, it makes me think that he has some metrics that

suggests that most people don't make it very far into the show. Yep. If you have a good 90% of the audience that makes it 45 minutes, into your episodes, you can charge advertisers a decent rate for that real estate. But if your numbers show that, like, half or more drops off at the one hour mark, it might not be worth it to run ads after that point. Yeah. I suspect something like that is going on, and Tucker's aware of it.

Yeah. It makes me grateful for what we do. And also reminds me of the thing that is worst about business is that to be a good business, you have to know the worst things about you. You know, you have to like, well, no. Nobody listens past an hour. Right. Nobody's there.

I don't know why we're talking. Maybe I'll just keep talking and nobody will be listening to this. It's past an hour. Is anybody here? I have gotten people in the door successfully with clickbait and like kind of exciting, sounding interviews. But they lose interest fairly quickly because this shit's fucking dumb and they have other things they need to do. Yep. So I think that probably reflects a lot of his.

That's dark. Yeah. Yep. So our leaders really. are the antichrist when you think of them well because they're anti-christ nice they're opposed to jesus call it and they get scared when someone brings up jesus that does happen the one thing i don't like about the antichrist conversation is it makes it sound like you know anton levy is going to show up and like start murdering people and i think it's much more present than that i mean i think

literally antichrist means against christ well who would that include most leaders in the world they hate Jesus I hate him starting to come around you want to make people upset start talking about Jesus I just did this

Patrick's Memorial I did like some six minute talk about Jesus only Jesus that's it I was like I said to my wife

in the shower the morning that morning I was like I'm not getting political at all I'm not going to attack anybody

I just want to be as like unifying as I can and consistent with what Charlie really cared about as I can and what he really

cared about like all the anti-Semitic it was insane it which was of course absurd but leaving aside the absurdity

like the emotion was real. It was totally real. Like, oh my gosh, that's outrageous. You said that. It's like... Great speech. I watched it. Oh, it was just short. All I did was recount the gospel. But that's the most controversial thing you can do. And everyone's happy to talk about God all the time.

God, spiritual, this. Jesus? Man, that's a no-go zone. Why is that? Absolutely. Because it's real. That's why. And it just triggers the fuck out of people. I shouldn't...

I mean, sorry. I mean, no, no, but I agree with you that. that we need to have an open discussion about this because it's here. So no one cares if you say or talk about Jesus. It's a problem for people who don't share your faith when you use Jesus to justify laws or social guidelines that restrict the freedoms of other people because you need everyone else to adhere to your religious rules. It's great for you to love Jesus, but the fact that you've made yourself subject to the rules that are laid out in the New Testament, that's your business. The feeling that I get from people like Tucker is almost an anger at the idea that they have to follow religious rules that they've decided to accept.

It's almost as if they feel trapped by the religion that they're in, and because of that, they have to insist everyone else trap themselves in the same box. It all just feels like a really unhealthy and unhappy connection to the divine, and as far as my understanding of God and Jesus goes, I don't think they'd love it. When Jesus hung out with prostitutes and text collectors, he wasn't doing that. to force them to stop doing sex work or collecting taxes. Forcing them to do those things would invalidate the critical step where they chose to live a different life, which is the key to spirituality. It can't be imposed upon you,

but by seeing examples of it lived and proximity to spiritual people, the hope is that you can show other people a different path and then they'll choose to take it because it's better. Right. Alex and Tucker want to create a government that caters to their religious rules and outlaws, things that their books, as a moral, but on some level, I'm sure they know that wouldn't save a single soul. Marketing, it's marketing.

Religions, their marketing brand. And especially for Tucker, I really think you can feel that he hates it. But, but he was, he was trying not to be political when he talked about Jesus. Right. Are you saying that he used Jesus? He spoke very softly. As, as a marketing tool, that is, I mean, can you meet, can you believe our leaders? would allow something like this?

I just, I think, here's the feeling, the generalized feeling that I get. Tucker has made his brand religion because it's fucking easy and this is a hot bed of like, I got attacked by a demon, look at me. It's a great space. And the right wing audience

that he largely caters to has gone that direction. So there's an element of audience capture that is involved here too. He can't really go against this and expect to maintain the same grasp on people as he does. right and he hates that yeah he fucking hates that because he's made this step and now he has

to be religious yep and it's incoherent that's why he yells about like this doesn't match what the we believe you know like all this stuff he can't fit in this this space and it makes him angry i mean you know one of the problems with this right is one of the problems with these people is that ultimately, if you want to be a dick about it, lying to religious people is starting with a little bit of a leg up, you know? Like, if you're not the best liar, then maybe you equalize by getting a little bit of a juice from people who are already predisposed to go along to get along, kind of thing.

Yes. So, so like religion, at least in the United States and Christianity, is fundamentally based on an element of faith. Yeah. And because people who are going to be self-described as Christians have a large piece of their life that is anti-critical thinking. Yep. Anti-deliberately. Yeah.

Purposefully. And not that that's a bad thing. In service of what they believe. But if you are someone who wants to deceive, that's an audience that you, you. Right. Yeah. Yeah, it is, it is the, I mean, like, it is the crux. You know, you can choose to live a trusting life, but don't be surprised when you get fucked.

And if you choose to live an untrusting life, don't be surprised if you're not following along with the book, you know? And if you're living an untrusting life, don't be surprised that it's pretty long way. Yeah, absolutely. Yep, it's tough. Fuck these people. It's hard out there. Anyway, Tucker's speech at Charlie Kirk's Memorial was called antisemitic because he made a joke that strongly implied that the Jews conspire to kill Jesus.

Sure. He said, quote, I can sort of picture the scene in a lamplit room with a bunch of guys sitting around eating hummus, thinking about what can we do about this guy telling the truth about us? We must make him stop talking. Tucker can feign ignorance all he wants and pretend to be so surprised by the reactions that he keeps getting for the clear references that he makes to classic anti-Semitic tropes. But I'm not interested in acting like he doesn't know exactly what he's doing.

Yeah. It's fucking charade is very well. So this next clip is also for your consideration in a different category. Okay. In the Webbees. All right. This one is for best banter. Best banter.

Yeah. We've just got some good yuck-em-ups. Just going around. Most electric chemistry. All right. I know that a lot of the people developing are really, really bad, really, really bad, like the worst. And what do I mean by bad specifically? They think they're God.

And that's the core lie. It's not like how many people have you killed. If you think you're God, you will kill people. And the more power you have the. more you will kill. It's just by its nature, bad. And there's, so it means no restraint, no perspective, no humility, man. That's a recipe for genocide always, right? I know we want to hit my own personal issues and a few other things, and I appreciate the time, Tucker, but big picture, let's just be completely honest about Trump. It's a blessing to have him in office. We're nine

months in. Uh-oh. The Democrats are destroying themselves. Lowest approval rating ever. Lowest fundraising ever. It's really up to us to lose this. But we are starting to see some indictments of Comey and Lisa Changes told a lot more coming. The Democrats are now pledging, you know, resistance and violence. And what's the quote, energetic uprisings or forceful uprisings? Sorry, forceful uprisings, Chuck Schumer, how do you see this unfolding? And what can the general public do to try to save the country in a nonviolent way? Because, I mean, I just think Trump rhetorically needs to be out front explaining people how

dangerous things are and the crossroads. Instead of just saying, oh, liberals are dumb, they don't know what they're doing. No, the leftist globalists have a plan all over the world. They know what they're deliberately doing. I think, I mean, a lot of things are important. Prayer is the most important. Keeping the people you love close, keeping your personal relationship strong, keeping your personal life virtuous.

I do think that's really important. So let's diagram this interaction that just happened. Tucker says that people that are making AI are bad and think they're gods. and he tease Alex up to talk about how if you think you're God, you're going to kill a bunch of people. Right. Instead of responding to that, Alex changes the subject and launches into his own question for Tucker about how the Dems are going to start a forceful uprising and what does Trump need to do. Yeah. Then, instead of answering that question, Tucker starts talking about how it's important to have your heart and soul in order.

Yep. This is an interesting situation because this isn't a conversation or an interview. It's just dudes saying things to each other. Mm-hmm. More interestingly, it's clearly supposed to be Tucker interviewing Alex, but Alex wants to interview Tucker. If Tucker's guiding the conversation, there's way less chance of something newsworthy happening on this show. He, like, asks Alex questions, and Alex says some inflammatory dumb shit, but who cares? Maybe someone's going to write an article about that, but Alex can't really sensationalize things he said himself on someone else's show. Yeah.

So back on Info Wars, there's no headline of, I said dumb shit on Tucker's show. Right, right, right. If Alex can guide the conversation, there's a chance he can get Tucker to say something that then becomes the big story, which is strategically a part of the reason that Alex is trying to take control in this conversation. Yeah. That was so awkward. It sounded a little bit like two spies exchanging, exchanging like code words. The sun is out today. Yeah, exactly.

Like, oh, but the sun never shines on a Tuesday. The rain falls mainly on the plane. Okay, cool. We're both in the evil corp or whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was... Here's a bomb. That was great.

That was really great because these two people don't like each other. Mm-hmm. You know? Like, just on a, just on a like... Yes. Yeah. In the same way that Tucker very clearly hates his audience. Yeah.

He does not like Alex. Yeah. Alex probably likes him, but that's because he's kind of a dope who wants everyone to like him. Yeah. Tucker performs liking him. Yeah. Alex liking you isn't what being liked is like. No.

Don't mistake that. Yeah. I think that... It's like being liked by Gacy. That's the kind of liked you're experiencing. Yeah. So Tucker, he wants there to be a purge of the military and law enforcement. Okay.

But it's good. Okay. It's cool. It's totally good. All right. But from a governance perspective, the government, the people who are elected to run the government, need to make sure that the instruments of government are loyal to the Constitution and under control. And that's the concern that I have.

have, is that especially older conservatives, whatever that is, Republicans, whatever that is, but, you know, non-leftists are living with outdated understandings of, like, the military and the police. And, you know, there are a lot of great people in the military. I know a lot of them, and there are a lot of great cops. We were just with one of them a second ago. But there are also a lot of people with guns in official capacities who are really, really, dangerous and you need to make sure those people are under control.

And by under control, I don't mean loyal to Donald Trump, the man. I mean loyal to the Constitution. Absolutely. Here's where we enter a paradox for Tucker that he can't untangle. He desperately wants to pretend that law enforcement and the military need to be loyal to the Constitution, not just loyal to Trump the person. But what he really means is that they need to be loyal to Trump as an idea. They need to be loyal to defending the institutional power of white Christian heterosexual men,

which the Trump movement is essentially an avatar for. But you can't just say that. Right. Not yet. Right. It's not quite time to say that. Right. What happens if supporting Trump and defending the Constitution become at odds?

What does Tucker believe law enforcement have a responsibility to do at that point? If what he's saying is true, he should believe that they have a responsibility to arrest or kill Trump. If he's the president of the country and he's flagrantly ignoring and violating the Constitution, he represents an existential danger to the Constitution far greater than any terrorist we've seen in our lifetime. There are plenty of instances where you can argue that Trump has violated the Constitution about things like the Amoluments Clause and shit like that, which are correct. But also they're so disconnected from our day-to-day lives that people can easily be convinced to ignore them or not take them seriously. But this month, Trump said directly and confidently that he took the freedom of speech away from burning flags, which he understood. was something the Supreme Court had held as free speech.

Yep. Free speech issues are central to people like Tucker and Alex's content, and they impact everyone in this country in a way that we can all feel. The president of the country openly said that he is the arbiter of what is and isn't free speech, regardless of what the Constitution and the courts say, and Alex and Tucker just ignore it. Trump and the Constitution are directly in opposition in this instance, and Tucker's position that law enforcement should be.

loyal to Trump the person stands because Trump the person is a proxy for the white identity movement that Tucker wants the state and the military and law enforcement to uphold. Don't think for a second that Tucker wanting a purge of law enforcement because they aren't loyal to the Constitution is a sincere position. Yeah. This is bullshit. It's a mask. It's absurd.

Yeah. It's absurd. Just we're going to need shock troops to do all the stuff that's illegal. So we better make them good now. And we don't want them to be loyal to Trump the person. Right. But maybe Stephen Miller or something, you know. There's always going to be another.

It's a miscavage, you know. It'll be, there'll be another Trump. God will have moved the mantle of heaven onto the next chosen one. But in that case, what's important is that the military is beholden to whoever. The C-Oorg needs to stay in line. Yeah. Yeah. So the problem is those beards that.

that people have in the military. That's true. That's always been true. It's not really that. It's more that Tucker thinks that the military is mostly crypto-gays and self-hating whites. Wild.

The enlisted are great people, on average the best, but people really have this vision of the military that's delusional. A lot of them are sociology professors with nuclear weapons. I mean, they're scary. And I know that just from living in D.C.

I wouldn't know that if I hadn't spent my life in Washington, the Pentagon's right there. The neighborhood I grew up in in Georgetown was, you know, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs lived like, one house over from me, there's always circulating through because they all circulate through DC. So I would have, you know, go to dinners or duck hunts or whatever. You're with these people and you're like, wait, you're like stupid, totally incapable of like creative or independent

thought. And you're a lefty, big time. And like self-hating white guys and like crypto gay and like all like, they're sociology professors. A lot of them. I've met a lot of them. A lot. Why do you think DEI swept through the military because the flag officers wanted it and why did they want it? Because they all got, you know, master's degrees at Fletcher or whatever at some, you know, they all got indoctrinated by her education as you explained at the outset. So like, man, you have to make sure those people are loyal to the Constitution and you need to go through systematically. By the way, you think Trump finally knows that he thought the brass for these badass John Wayne guys are literally the enemy? Well, apparently everyone says that the chairman of the Joint Chiefs is like a really good,

a good solid. Raising cane. American, that's correct. Dan Cain is a great guy. So, I mean, I think there are a lot of great people. There's still a few left that. Yeah, there may be many left, but there are many bad. He did himself forever.

Many bad, many bad. And the left used the COVID vaccine to weed out the men, guys with test testosterone and self-respect who were like, I'm not doing that. I'm not going to poison myself. And so they left. And that was the point of the COVID-vax was to get decent, to purge the men, so it's all like betas and women who can be controlled and are sort of eager to worship false gods. And you have those people with guns.

I don't know. It's really scary what just happened under Biden. Yeah, man. That's what the COVID vaccine was all about. Getting betas into the military positions because all the testosterone filled self-respecting men wouldn't take a shot and they had to go. Yeah. Yeah, it's always interesting. the way people view military people.

I'm always fascinated by it because it's like they spend a lot of time just making sure that following orders is like the thing. It's like the thing. It's a big part of it. It's a huge part of it. And yet everybody's outside commentary

always comes in on when they can't, they should and should not follow their orders. Like, oh, getting a vaccine, your order to get a vaccine? How dare you? Never follow those orders. I mean, it's crazy. Cut your beard.

Exactly. Follow that order, of course. How dare you not follow that order? Arrest this person. Go to a random place in America and go, ah, follow those orders. Or go to another country and kill someone. Yep. Follow those orders.

Don't ever think maybe this is as bad as the COVID vaccine. I think that there's an interesting thing here too where Tucker is like, he's willing to say this shit, but he's like, oh, no, talking about. the Antichrist and Peter Thiel is out of my depth. You know, like, it's a little stupid. I mean, it's a little silly. Listen, just because I understand global political affairs through a military point of view doesn't mean that I'm also prepared to talk about the Antichrist.

Well, these military people under Biden, they're all self-hating whites. What an absurd thing to think about anything. Just they're all self-hating whites is a self-evidently crazy. thing to say. And that's why they brought in the COVID vaccine. What are you, when you say they are self-hating whites, right? You're, you're hearkening back to race traders, essentially. That's what you're saying. A million percent. Right. That's what you're doing. Like, they're people who will talk to the blacks, so we have to destroy them. The clan will not allow you to marry outside of your race. But see, it's not really just about that. Right. It's also about women and how they shouldn't be in power.

Of course! And it's self-hating men and bloodthirsty women And oh, I love the liberal thing Once women are in charge will be no more wars That's bullshit That's not with the studies show Well, it's not what reality shows us Female leadership leads to violence

Why is that? It's true I don't know And I as a great lover of women And the father of women Fuck you! Fuck you! Not anti-women I love claws Claws, claws, come on

Anything I love women but it's true Invisibility But female leadership leads to violence and you see it and who's it was Governor Wallace's wife who opened the windows to smell the burning times.

The redland odor of riot yeah it's Winnie Mandela man it's really really the Bolsheviks wives were more bloodthirsty than they were I don't know exactly what that is I think weak male leadership incites something in women that's really dark that's not their fault that's men's fault

men's job is to lead so Tucker is arguing that having women in positions of power leads to violence. And the first example he can come up with is a misrepresented comment from Tim Walts's wife. Yep. Tim Walz is the governor, not his wife. Yeah, but that's, I mean, she's not in a position of power.

Her husband is. If Tucker wants to keep women out of positions of power, then this isn't an example he should be using because it's a man in a position of power. And it's, yeah, it's not an example. This is stupid and it's intentionally stupid because it's cynical content directed at an audience that Tucker hates and thinks are stupid. If he wants to make an argument that women being in power leads to violence and the only thing he can seem to come up with are the wives of male leaders, he understands that he's

making a dumb point that isn't supported by the premises of his argument. I'm not saying that having women in power would end war or anything like that. It's just that the construction of the point Tucker is making is motivated by defending his sexist conclusion rather than by taking real information and arriving at the conclusion that that information would support. Some people are better at masking this than others. And I would say that Alex is actually better than Tucker because he just rambles and confuses the audience with emotions so effectively that it's hard to track what he's saying if you're not paying close attention. Yeah.

Tucker doesn't quite have that move yet. No. So interestingly, there was a study that was published earlier this year that shows that English queens between 1480 and 1913 were 27% more likely to go to war than kings. Sure. One of the reasons that was suggested for why this difference existed was that often queens were married to men from other countries as a mean of creating alliances. Sure. These alliances often meant that the queen would wage war along with these countries. And this is supported by the data that shows that there's a lower rate of war among unmarried queens.

Right. There's a lot of interesting historical sexist dynamics that this data points to, but none of it suggests that women are more likely to go to war than men. But it's interesting. To be clear, to be clear, the study shows that there is a 27% increase in queens going to war compared to male kings at the time because their husbands told them to. Probably. I mean, it's a big part. Yeah. Like, yes, historically.

Yes, exactly. Historically married queens have had much more like co-sovereigns with their husband that they marry. Yeah. And the alternative where a king would marry somebody, that queen isn't co-sovereign. It doesn't work the same way in reverse. No, strange how that goes. Yeah. No.

So, no clause? No Wolverine. Man, I just, I just love the, it's not just what you say, because it is that. But there's also the layer of, the additional layer of disdain on top of it that includes a, like, not only do I not actually believe any of this bullshit. Yeah. But I am showing you a version of what you believe that's even more disgusting. and I know you're going to eat it up because you're fucking stupid.

Like, that's how awful it would be to listen to Tucker is to be beaten. It is horrifying. It is an attack in some ways. It is. He is punching me again and again and again and I have yet to receive claws. Well, the claws were added later.

Wolverine's actual power is a healing factor. Oh, that's true. And if Tucker is punching you over and over again... No, because the claws used to be... The claws are skeleton. The claws, the adamantium clause are later. Fair. But the skeleton still, I'm pretty sure that's true, right?

I don't, I now realize I'm out of my depth, I'm even over in low. No, because I remember, in days of future past, he doesn't have the adamantium clause yet. Right. He's got, yep, yeah. Yep. So look, maybe you have a healing factor. Moving on. I know, I don't know why we needed to do that. We didn't need to do that.

So, in Tucker's life, he's lost. two fist fights and i was listening to this i was thinking let's make it three baby i was yeah all of that it's it's all true and i also think it's you know having lost two fist fights in my life badly um not badly enough to get into a fist into a fist fight i mean there's something about you know being forced to box as a kid as i was or and learning that like i'm not as tough as i thought i was or whatever but the experience of physical violence is much more a male thing and no you know people haven't been in a fist fight shouldn't be commanding an me or a country, for that matter, or a country.

Well, the tougher, you know, the more you learn, there's always somebody tougher. A hundred percent. And it hurts to get hit in the face. It hurts a lot. Actually, it hurts so much. That's why I was never good at boxing. My brother was good, but I was not because I hit the face and I'd be like, oh, I think we should negotiate this. Like, there's got to be a smarter way to do this. That was my, and then I was like, I'm not suited for that. And, but it was only through the experience that I learned. Anyway, you know all this because you're a man. Yeah, because you're a man. Yeah. I say no to negotiations. Tucker, let's box. Yep. I don't fight, but I'll...

I wouldn't worry too much about it. We can rent a venue. We could do this. I think you'd have this one. I would do it. I think I would. Because you're a man. I have to. Yeah, absolutely. There's only the explanation for that. That's just it's just it. You just men know violence, you know?

You know what I think I would do? I think I would agree to a boxing match with Tucker. if he would do it. Yeah. And then I wouldn't hit him. That would be fun. Yeah. That would be fun.

That would be a nice little, nice little protest. Yeah. Try and hit me again. Come on, bud. Come on, go. I don't care. Knock me out. I don't give a shit.

Come on, buddy. I think it would be so funny. Yeah. Tucker beat the shit out of you. I think it'd be more funny, but, yeah, but I wouldn't do that. No. That's why we're different. Yep.

So, look, female leaders lead to violence. And that's why they shouldn't be in leadership. Everybody knows that. Yes, there's something about female leadership that gets you very quickly to violence. And you see it in the support for the Ukraine war, which is like the murder of an entire country's male population. And now, though, a bunch of European countries are doing female conscription.

I wonder if combat is going to get the women to not be for war. I wonder why you would even bother with a civilization if you're sending your women to fight wars. I don't just give up at that point. Well, it's like Ursula van der Leight. You only have a military to protect your women. That's the point. There's the only one reason, and that's to protect my wife and my daughters.

And if it weren't for that, why would we need a military? So Tucker thinks that female leadership leads to war, but then he brings up Ukraine where a man is president. If the ability of women to serve in the military is what he means by female leadership, that seems strange, because that's definitely not the point he was making earlier when he was complaining about this. All of this is just rooted in profound sexism. and a belief in the natural hierarchical order that puts men over women. Tucker doesn't think that women are equal humans

and he believes that he has an ownership stake on the women in his life and that's it. Well, let's not forget First Timothy, buddy. Timothy's got a lot to go on there. It's fascinating how Alex keeps trying to butt in to bring up Ursula Vanderladen because that's an actual example of a woman in a position of power.

All of the other examples Tucker has come up with don't apply and he won't even let Alex shift the subject into like, Let's actually complain about this woman in power. Yeah, man. What a just, I mean, that, that idea, that like fucking bullshit concept of chivalry being the reason that. Like, that's, how are you still trying to sell that in 2025? I, it's, the year is 2025.

Yep, yep. People have been saying that shit for a long time. It's never been true. Right. It's just an excuse to not see women as equals. Because you could, you know, you can make some sort of argument about how, like, as a man, your whole thing is to provide for women. So why would you ever want to live in a civilization that allows women to work? Right?

Right. Why should they ever have to work? Oh, my God. Right. Oh, my God. Nonsense. Well, anyway, the Dems. Yeah.

All these fucking leftist demon Satan folk. Right? Okay. Now, I just ask this question, right? Do we now have to admit that all the women who have ever been in the Republican Party here, stupid? Or nakedly craven and have stolen money from everybody? Hmm. No, because later Tucker is like, hey, you know that Tulsi, she's pretty great.

She's one of the good ones. No, that's not possible. Unacceptable. Unacceptable. If, like, because it works, it has to work in two ways, right? If women leaders leading to violence is inherently a bad thing, then leaders leading to violence is a bad thing, which doesn't need gender.

So it should also work backwards where male leaders leading to violence is bad, right? Well, I'm sure it is. But look, Tulsi's cool. All right. Or if female leaders are bad, then all female leaders are bad. It can't be most female leaders are bad because then it's not the female that has anything to do with that. is completely other effects. Yeah, but like, you know, Tulsi is into Trump.

So what you're saying within an argument that is women can't be leaders, but also this woman is good, is because men are leaders, most women are incapable of reaching a point where I allow them to be leaders. Well, yes, certainly. And in the system that I envision, Tulsi being in power is kind of not real. Right. She's not really in power. We leash her.

Right. She's subservient to Trump and understands her position in that place. And that's why she's cool. Yeah, she's a bride of Christ. Yeah, she's fine. She were to assert some sort of independence. Killer! Right.

She would instantly become the problem with women in powerful positions. So weird. Anyway, these Dems. They like to play like they're the victims. Oh. But also, Alex is a huge victim. Yeah. Would you believe that Lettisa James bitched and complained and said Trump has weaponized things against me?

It's kind of. Yeah. But that's the system. The entitlement level in this country has gotten very high. Well, that's not just hiding behind a woman, behind a black woman. That's all they're doing. It's totally, you know, transparent. Well, the most powerful people in our society consider themselves its greatest victims.

You always notice that. Like, I'm a victim. I need security at my house. It's like, okay. No, you're not a victim. the perpetrator um so let me speaking of victims and perpetrators you are the victim of the greatest crime against free speech in the last 10 years for your consideration for a webby award tucker for craziest transition that's the craziest thing i've ever heard least self-aware transition that

people people are so entitled these days so entitled such victim these days specifically now now specifically people are very entitled and And the most powerful people in the world, of which I am one, having interviewed Putin, having a massive amount of sway with an electorate, controlling so much wealth, are all the victims. By the way, you're a victim. Probably the victim of the greatest attack on free speech ever. So free speech is important, apparently. Oh, my God. Flag burning.

It is, it is true, you know, that level of cognitive distance is. It's overwhelming. It's not cognitive dissonance on their part. No, no, no, no. It's intentional. No, that's what I'm saying. It's like that is the technique. That is the tool that divides your brain into chunks.

Yeah. You know, it's effective. Yeah. And Alex's problem is not free speech. That's not a relevant factor in what happened with him. But he does do a long, just like unlistenable. Stretch talking about his victimhood at the hands of the courts in the Sandy Hook case. Of course.

And Tucker is like, you are so in the clear here. Oh, Alex Jones was mean to dead kids' families. There was never any evidence of that. Well, but even, again, just to restate the Constitution of the United States, the country we live in, you're allowed to have any opinion you want. Okay. We're making a political point. And the job of the government is to defend that right. That's the point of the Department of Justice to defend that right.

Get right with God, Tucker. Wow. You piece of shit. Wow. Yeah. Because if you're willing to defend as free speech, whatever Alex did during Sandy Hook, then Trump is your enemy. There's no way around it.

To say that out loud should get you struck by lightning. Yeah. Like that's just, that's just egregious to a point where it's, it is like, cosmic. It's cosmically egregious. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And so like earlier I was saying that I think that Alex is better.

at obscuring his bad examples when he's making an argument it's so all over the place non sequiturs and stuff and I think there's other things that Alex is better at and if Tucker wants to take this job that he clearly wants like some of whatever Alex's brand is

he's gonna need to get rid of this too I think that is why people voted for Trump it's why I campaign for him you have to have justice in your country to agree more than an economy more than stopping war. I agree. My listeners won indictments. And finally, Comey, Letitia James. Indictments are the guilty. Not indictments of people you don't like. Not indictments of people who pissed you off. Wrong. Oh, they're cut and drive. They did everything. People who committed

crimes and who have escaped justice because of their political connections. That can't continue. Well, they started it, Tucker. Oh, I know. They started at mentality is no good. You want that to be subtext, not text. And then the second thing, you can't say I campaigned for Trump. You can't do that. You can't have been a political hack and a tool of a campaign. Yep. And if you are, that campaign has to be like Ron Paul. You have to have lost. Yeah.

There has to have been no chance of it ever getting off the ground. Exactly. A champion of principle that we knew never had a chance of winning, but it was a protest by, you know, that. Right. And Tucker, it's undeniable that he was a part of the Trump campaign. Yeah. But he has to deny it or at least has to never put it in those terms. because now you're a campaigner.

You're not as independent as you need to present yourself as. Yeah. I think the thing that he needs that's going to take him to the next level of Alex is removing all continuity. Because for him, it should be like a second skin to remove all continuity, right? We don't need to worry about Iraq. Gone. Gone. Doesn't matter.

We don't need to worry about Trump. Gone. Doesn't matter. You know, like tomorrow is a brand new day. I campaigned, I didn't campaign, I'm for it, I'm against it, women, no women, who cares? You know? Sure. Yeah, that would be helpful to him.

And maybe he'll get there. Maybe. I don't know. The demons really force you to stay in the moment. It is tough. It is tough with the scratching and the clawing. So we have one last clip here, and it's reflective of a large chunk of the end of this episode. Okay.

Which is, you know, Alex telling us. people to go to his new websites, which is obviously a huge reason they did this interview to begin with. Right. And then complaining about Todd Blanche, who's the deputy head of the DOJ, and he's the reason that Ed Martin stopped Alex's whole thing. Right, right, right, right. For just briefly, Alex went to Ed Martin and was trying to get the Department of Justice to go after the Sandy Hook people who were suing him.

And Todd Blanche was like, no. We, for so many reasons. Yeah. So many reasons. And so Alex is on the war path against Todd Blanche. Naturally. Todd Blanche is Bill Barr 2.0. And if you think that little sneaky lawyers, your friend, you're a fool.

So I think Todd Blanche should be removed, not because of me, but because everybody I talk to, he is literally there working against the president. He's the one telling the U.S. attorneys don't do these prosecutions. And then Trump gets pissed and says, do it, they do it. so trump you did it with sessions you did with bill bar why are you doing it with blanche right now it's just please i don't understand this blind spot of trump i've never heard any of this before but that's why i'm a fan of yours because i always learn a lot godspeed Alex Jones truly thank you Tucker love you brother great to see you thank you thank you I've never heard any of this shit and that's why I like talking to you because you just

tell me things that I'll pretend are true. Just, just, just, just don't lie to me this bad, you know? Just don't lie to me like this. This, it hurts to be lied to like this. You mean for Tucker or for? Yeah, when Tucker lies to me like this, like, I've never heard any of this stuff before. There's a, well, but I think that some of that might be true. And there's a reason why he wouldn't have heard a lot of this stuff.

Sure. Because it's bullshit. Yeah. Well, there's that. Yeah. And a lot of it is niche. Alex bullshit. Right, right, right.

And his sort of boutique grievances. And so, yeah, when he's like, I haven't heard any of this stuff, it's like, yeah, and you should have the instinct, you have a giant platform. And this isn't your first day on TV. You should have an instinct to treat it as, oh, this is something Alex is saying, not something that is the truth. Yeah. I don't know.

I guess now it's become, like, to me, what Alex is saying is one big. long thing, you know, like Carrowack and on the road. It's just one big long thing. He's not saying individual things. He's only ever saying one big thing, right? So the idea of like, I haven't heard this before. Yeah, you have, but you've heard it like this last year and you've heard it like that two years ago and you've heard it like that three years ago.

You have heard this before. Yes, definitely. You know, definitely. But there's a corollary of that or there's a side implication of that. And that is when he's like, I haven't heard any of this stuff. It's him admitting, I don't listen to your dumb show. Yeah, of course, of course I don't listen to any of this shit. I'm happy to promote you mostly because I don't have to take responsibility for being aware of your career and what you actually do.

Have you not listened to some of my questions when you are talking, my brain is going, la la la la la, la, I'm a little Tucker of the elf. I'm so mad at women. I hate my audience. Yeah, that's what's going on in his head. Yep. anyway we made it to the end no superpowers can you like

I don't want you to jump no I don't want to jump either because it's it's gonna the landing is gonna be hard yeah it's gonna be hard fuck well I really thought we had a chance I mean really

if if anybody could I think it would be Tucker I think there's something so specifically grading about him yeah and then the the amount of history he has of being a piece of shit it's kind of amazing

I like this as a new thing where we're trying to wake up your ex-gene. I think that's good. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. If we can torture me into a level of excellence that has never been reached before, I could be show hey. Well, because Alex and Tucker have such a disrespect for continuity and the fact that, like, things exist, the past, I feel like we have to impose new layers of continuity on ourselves. Right. And now we have the quest for powers.

Yeah, our ultimate defense against their offense is developing superpowers. Yeah, and I'm going to need some of your blood. Yeah, I'm going to run some tests. Obviously, obviously. So while the blood's in the centrifuge, I guess we should go. But we'll be back. Until then, we have a website. Indeed, we do.

It's knowledgefight.com. Yep, we'll be back. But until then, I'm Leo. I'm Deo. I'm Deasyx. Mark. I am the mysterious professor. Woo, yeah, woo. And now here comes the sex robot. Andy in 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.
