Thanks for holding us.
Hello, Alex.
I'm a big fan.
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
Knowledge fight.
No, no, no, no, no, no, knowledgefight.com.
I love you.
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to knowledge fight.
I'm Dan.
I'm Jordan.
We're a couple dudes like to sit around.
I'll do beverages and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
Indeed we are, Dan.
Jordan.
Dan.
Jordan.
Have you ever quit a race or dropped out or lost?
Have I ever.
Have you ever run a race?
I don't think so.
Like physically or like metaphorically.
I'll campaign.
I've often thought about like a half marathon or something
like that.
I've often thought about doing something like that.
Yeah.
Especially in those times in my life when I was going to the gym
more in shape, I was thinking about like, why don't I do that?
Right.
I never got around to it.
And if I ever get healthy again, I may.
But no, the only races I can come up with.
Well, one is physical.
Right.
Right.
And that was back when we do the mile run back in like fifth grade.
Yeah.
It didn't matter at all.
So I would just walk it.
Right.
Right.
Right.
I got a fucking exerted.
You know what?
The presidential fitness award.
Gym teacher did not like that.
Me getting laughed on the track by people.
I was like, I don't give a shit.
It's not going to change anything.
It's not going to change anything.
This is my climate change strike.
Yeah.
Impress this cranky Vietnam vet.
Gym teacher.
No, it's not going to happen even if I run really fast.
That was a bad race.
Yeah.
And then in like junior high, I think it was junior high.
We had like class presidential races and stuff.
I thought that was all silly.
Did you try?
Well, I decided I was going to run for school pope.
I was that brand of dumb ass.
Deeply annoying.
Yes.
Yes.
100%.
That is such a like you're in junior high and you hear that and you're like, haha.
Yep.
That's very funny.
Oh, no, I'm already bored with it.
Yep.
I was the guy who was like, no, let's let it ride.
Let's see what happens.
Nothing happened.
But yeah, I've had good luck with races of any kind.
Yeah.
Be it foot race or political race.
Yeah.
I dropped out of the white race.
So you've made that very clear.
So this podcast where I don't know too much about being fleet footed or politically savvy,
but I do know a lot about Alex Jones.
And I don't know anything about either.
That is correct.
Yes.
So Jordan, today we got an interesting podcast episode to do stuff to go over.
But before we get down to business, I'm going to take a little moment here to say thank
you to people who have signed up and are supporting the show.
Love it.
First of all, Andrew, thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
I'm a policy wonk.
Thank you, Andrew.

Thanks, David.
Next, generic otter.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
I'm a policy wonk.
Thank you, generic otter.
Now I refuse to accept that every otter is unique and special in their own way.
Fair enough.
Otters are way better than people.
They can float.
Yeah.
Unlike people.
And they hold hands when they float.
Come on.
People can do neither.
Yeah.
Thank you to a couple people who signed up on an elevated level.
We appreciate it very much.
So first, Jane, thank you so much.
And then Dick Cheney made money off the Iraq war.
Thank you so much.
You are both wonderful technocrats.
I'm a policy wonk.
Crikey, mate.
That's fantastic.
Have yourself a brew.
How's your 401k doing, bro?
We got to go full tilt buggy on this Watson.
All right.
Let's just get down to business.
We ain't making that money off that heroin.
Why are you pimp so good?
My neck is freakishly large.
I'm a player info war on you.
Thank you so much, Jane.
And Dick Cheney made money off the Iraq war.
Yes.
Thank you so much.
If you're out there listening, you're thinking, hey, I like what these guys do.
I'd like to support the show.
You can do that by going to our website, knowledgefight.com, clicking that button that says support the
show.
We would appreciate it.
It'd be lovely.
So elephant in the room, Jordan.
This episode's coming out a little bit late.
Yes.
And I apologize for that to the good people of the world and to you also because, you
know, this is a pain.
Oh, wow.
We both fixing up schedule and what I have.
Yeah, we both had.
So I was sick all day yesterday and I was through this morning and I explained this a little
bit on Facebook, but the, the, I tweeted that I had a slight or a light bungling of the schedule.
And what was going on is that Alex Jones has been in California for the better part of
this week.
Yeah.
So I didn't want to do three 2013 episodes in a week and wacky Wednesday possibilities
were all dead ends that I was going in.
Right.
In California that almost certainly means that he's going on Rogan or there's a decent
chance.
And that means that I got to be ready to do that episode at the drop of a hat.
Yeah.
You were on, you were a fireman in that situation.
You ever see those guys in like a, I don't know, a coming of age movie, you know, they
always pan to the football field and the guys are running in place.
Yeah.
That's how I was ready to go.
Rogan goes live with Alex and then I got to drop and do 10 any moment.
Yeah.
And it didn't happen.
So by the time Alex got back from California, it was already cutting it real tight for us
to be able to get an episode out.
So thankfully we were able to do this and get this out, which I think is actually very
interesting and maybe the next best thing to Alex being on Rogan.
Okay.
And that is today.
We're going over the September 19th, 2019 episode, which is Thursday of this week.
And here's a little out of context drop where Alex talks about how, you know, not too long
ago, he said he was going to politically murder Joe Rogan.
Yeah.
He called him a sneaky snake and all that good stuff.
I want to get into some Joe Rogan stuff here, but I love Joe to death, even though Jesus
told me to destroy him.
I'm joking.
I was in like two bottles of tequila at that point, folks, metaphysically, metaphysically
two bottles of tequila.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
How can you?
I think that's a literally two bottles of tequila metaphysically one bottle of tequila
in, but you can only be physically two bottles of tequila.
That takes that takes action.
That's dedication.
You might have heard laughter in the background.
That's our old friend.
Eddie Bravo.
That's our old friend.
Eddie Bravo.
I was, I was tipped off to that.
Eddie Bravo shows up along with his co-host from his podcast, the tin foil hat podcast.
Okay.
I by the name of Sam Tripoli.
I'm not sure you're aware of that cat.
I've heard of, I've heard his name, comedian guy.
Uh-huh.
We're going to see how this plays out there on for most of the show.
Oh God.
So we'll get to that when we get to it, but we got to start the show how Alex starts
it.
He has a big special report that he wants to premiere and he keeps saying this thing
needs to go viral.
Well, everything he does needs to go viral for him to keep going.
That's true.
And I'm here to do my part.
Right.
I do not want this to go viral, but let's enjoy a little bit of it.
A little special report.
This video is exclusively on infowars.com and newswars.com and summit.news video.
Communist Party of China issues direct message to the American people.
Paul Watson retweeted it, Rob Dewey retweeted it.
We need to get this out.
Throwing down the gauntlet, the Central Committee tells Americans to submit to their fate.
So they're being very honest about this.
And so here is the dictator of Communist China, uncloked and in your face this needs to go
viral.
Here it is.
Attention, American pigs, China is in control of your country now.
No.
We're on Hollywood.
Why?
We're on your debt and we are Harvard and the Democratic Party.
We have all your military courts.
This is insanity.
Is this breakfast at Tiffany's?
What the fuck just happened?
Now I have a couple thoughts about this.
Oh, do you?
Yeah.
Just a couple?
The first is even as a racist impression, this is bad.
This is not, this is equality stuff.
Second, I have a strong suspicion Alex is trying to chase some of that Shane Gillis
heat.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, this dude just got fired from SNL by being overtly racist against Asians.
Right.
I'm going to jump in that pool.
If I can do that, maybe I can piggyback on his racism.
Exactly.
And just as people are defending him, people will be like, hey, why can't you do a racist
man?
Yeah, exactly.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Just trying to ride that wave that's been created by Gillis.
What a transparent asshole.
But this is, I mean, this is crazy.
This is too much.
But you know what?
It goes even further.
Of course it does.
Alex Jones presents a tricom takeover in four words.
So take your fentanyl and your tainted vaccines and your melamine and your baby formula we
make for you and don't fight back or the media will call your names and you don't want that.
You certainly don't want that.
I think Alex, that's exactly what he wants.
I don't know.
He wants the media to call him racist so he can play around in the mud.
That's all this is.
God.
This is a ridiculously desperate ploy for attention.
This is the 70s episode of Scooby-Doo.
This is not good.
I turned on the episode and this is how it was starting and I was like, oh my God, this
is swinging for the fences.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I mean, what is more punk in 2019, not this fucking Christ.
So I was listening to this on audio and I was very curious about like, well, I mean,
he said this is a video.
Tell me he's not wearing a fucking hat.
I thought for sure it'd be Alex in disguise or something like that.
I'm thrilled to report to you that that is not the case.
Okay.
Alex didn't go for some kind of like offensive, right?
Trudeau style.
Right.
Right.
Well, did he wear the rice?
The rice?
The hat?
No.
There is.
No.
There's no costuming.
Okay.
There's nothing.
Good.
However.
Oh no.
It is animated.
No.
Of course.
And it's just a big talking dragon.
Why not?
Why not?
Did it have wings?
I think so.
Yeah.
Then it's even more ignorant and racist.
I can't confirm or deny whether it had wings, but I can't say that like this is all just
a really sad attempt at getting people, it's just a racism trolling or something.
Yeah.
That's how it feels.
Yeah.
Going over the top and being like specifically, I can't see it in any other lens other than
like, Hey, it's cool now.
Right.
As racist as I want to, or I know that there's going to be some blowback of attention that
I get from this, that I can maybe translate into some sales.
Yeah.
And he's going to try and call it edgy humor, right?
Because it clearly, look at me, clearly I'm going over the top and this is parody and
you're like, you don't understand what parody.
Well, he does immediately explain that it's satire.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm going to do this right now.
That was obviously satire.
We were not being serious that that is G's message to us, but in action, that is what
China is doing.
Okay.
All right.
Good.
Thanks.
Does he understand what satire is?
I'm not sure, but it's good as a sign whenever you perform a piece of satire that you have
to immediately and almost reflexively be like, that was satire.
Yeah.
Guys, I know that you probably think that was actually right.
It was not satire guys.
I remember that being the last chapter of a modest proposal, Jonathan Swift went through
a long diet tribe of why that is funny and how people should react to it.
Yeah.
And then he said that he did actually though, want to eat Irish babies.
It's the mark of great commentary, great satire when you have to like knee jerk, make sure
people know, Hey, we're fucking around here because otherwise it's going to look really
fucked up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
And I think it's really interesting.
This is how it kind of kicked off because I feel like everything is just desperate ploys
for attention.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Much like having Eddie Bravo and Sam Tripoli on, I think is like, get some of their,
let's try and grab some Joe Rogan folk and that kind of thing.
Yeah.
And he didn't go on Rogan while he was in California, but he did say that he went on
a podcast that's bigger than Rogan.
And I can't imagine what my favorite murder, I don't know.
I have no idea what he's presenting as being bigger than Rogan that he would go on.
Oh, I don't know.
Comedy bang bang.
Are they?
Are they?
They're not bigger than Rogan.
They're playing in properties.
That would be amazing.
See him on Marin.
Yeah.
You know, actually, I bet he probably he's, he's going to go on Marin in five years.
Yeah.
Well, it's, it's a, it's somehow more offensive how pathetic it is.
You know, like it's not, it's, you know, it's, it's racist and it's terrible and it's
awful.
Right.
But because it's so desperately fake, like it's not, he's not, it's, it's just such
bullshit that he's, it's pathetic.
Yeah.
It makes you feel really sad.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Less angry, although I am like, you know, I don't like to see this kind of thing, like
this kind of clunky racism.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This lack of craft and even some kind of satire that's being presented.
Yeah.
I think that's awful, but yeah, it is.
The overwhelming feeling that I have is that like this is a bummer.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This pathetic douche.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
That's, that's like how I would feel with the, in the, in a perfect world, like that's
the last living racist feeling, you know, where you're like, really dude, get the fuck
out of here.
Some weird twilight zone episode where the, the racist has a, is alone on one, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
It probably is an episode of one of those dystopian shows that was time to be racist
now.
That was time.
So Alex gets into talking about immigrants and what do you know, he's equally off base
and bad.
There's 4,000 plus Americans get shot and killed a year by illegal aliens, a large portion
of that is illegal aliens.
But oh, that's not a problem.
Hell, the illegal aliens shot the poor woman in San Francisco in the back.
The jury found him not guilty, but he'd been found guilty of a gun crime, so he was sent
to prison for that.
And the appellate court said, no, let him go, even though he'd been deported five times
and committed a bunch of other crimes, they can't even put a guy in jail for shooting
a woman in cold blood in the back when he's illegal alien.
That's a virtue signal.
But what I'm getting at here is that they're coming for the guns, they're coming for the
guns.
That's, that is exactly what he was getting at.
So first of all, there's literally no way for Alex to have the information that he's
citing.
It doesn't track crime statistics on that axis, that of immigration status.
It's also literally against the law for them to do any of those studies.
So the only thing he could be basing this on is like super unreliable sources.
He's most likely getting this information from a speech that Trump gave earlier this
year where he claimed that in the past two years, I said, arrested undocumented persons
whose criminal records included 4,000 violent killings, quote, violent killings.
Yeah, he's trustworthy.
Obviously, the problem with this is that Alex is claiming this as a statistic of crimes
per year by a certain population when in reality, even if Trump's words were correct, he's just
saying that people taken in by ICE in a span of two years had committed that many crimes
total.
It could be over a span of 30 years, you have no fucking idea.
Right.
Another similar claim Trump made last year was that, quote, at least 63,000 Americans
had been killed by immigrants since 9-11.
But when Politifact looked into that claim, they found that he'd most likely gotten this
from a blog written by noted cool guy about races, Steve King, who in turn seems to have
just made that number up.
Yeah, he's Steve King.
That's on brand.
The larger problem is that consistent studies have shown that immigrant populations, regardless
of documentation status, are less likely to commit crimes than native-born populations.
Alex knows that, so he has to pull out the only case he can even remember, that of Katie
Steinle, although he can't remember her name.
He can't even remember her name, just that lady in San Francisco.
Fucking hate him.
Yeah, like you said, we went over this in the past and it's not worth diving into that
deeply again.
But to remind everyone, that was a case where an undocumented immigrant accidentally fired
a gun and the bullet ricocheted off the ground, ultimately hitting Steinle.
He didn't murder her in cold blood.
And though what happened is absolutely a tragedy, to paint it as a murder is literally
only useful to escalate demonization of immigrants.
That's literally the only reason to go with this narrative.
Yeah.
Yeah, absolutely.
Nazi propaganda is what it is.
More or less.
Yep.
The man who accidentally fired that gun was a man named Jose Inés Garcia Zarate.
And he was acquitted in his trial because it was clear it was an accident.
He was, however, charged with being a felon in possession of a gun.
This is a charge that was appealed, and the decision came down on that recently that
that was overturned.
The reason that conviction of a gun charge was overturned was because his attorneys successfully
argued that he didn't know that the thing he was picking up was a gun.
He found a gun wrapped in a rag, picked it up, and it fired, and he immediately dropped
it.
He wasn't knowingly in possession of the gun, and the appeals court found that the prior
trials judge didn't give the jury instruction on the legal standards for dealing with what's
known as momentary possession.
Yeah.
So this is the reality that Alex is yelling about.
But in order to make the argument he wants to make, which is bad, he has to turn to an
appeal to a motion where an immigrant killed this precious white lady in cold blood when
that's not at all the reality.
What Alex is doing is lying about this case, and also, quite frankly, that's virtue signaling.
Yeah.
But it's virtue signaling to racism.
Did I forget that?
Xenophobia.
I always thought that the gun was his, but it wasn't even that.
That was more new information that they established in the second trial.
I think it was part of the first trial, but it wasn't something I ran into until reading
up on the appeal.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
That's a fucking tragedy for everyone involved.
How could it?
Oh my God.
That fucking, oh, that sucks.
Right.
That sucks so hard.
Any previous felonies you may have had or how many times he entered the country illegally,
that doesn't mean that he committed that murder as a murder, doesn't have any bearing on the
event that actually happened.
Oh God.
That's very sad.
That would, that's fucked everybody involved up for no good reason other than that there
are an infinite number of guns in America.
It's very, very tragic.
So Alex did go to LA or California, probably LA, I don't know, he just says California.
But like I said, I thought he was going on Rogan and I was wrong about that.
But my reason that I thought he was going on Rogan is like Alex wouldn't go to LA unless
there's a big press opportunity for him or someone else's audience he can sort of vulture
in on.
And I was right about that.
Like I said, he has some unknown podcast that he went on that's bigger than Rogan.
We'll find out what that is whenever that happens.
Pod Save America.
They're really trying to, they're really trying to be centrist as fuck these days.
They're really trying to like reach across the, yeah, yeah, yeah, we need to, we need
to work together with bigots and racists who are trying to kill us all.
It wouldn't be an Alex Jones trip if it didn't have a story about something that happened
to him on the plane.
So these mobs are out of control.
I had a leftist on the airplane, grabbed me in my seat and go, I love you so much.
I love you.
And my security guy starts pushing him away.
We get off the plane, the guy comes over, he smelled real bad, looked mentally ill like
Beto.
He goes, I know you do it all for money, but I wanted to hurt you, but instead I hugged
you.
He goes, I said, get away from me.
These are mental patients.
What do you want to bet that was one of Alex's fans?
Like if that happened, that sounds like an encounter that could have been someone who
actually did like him.
And then when Alex snubbed him, he's like, I know you do it for the money.
That could easily be a jilted fan.
Yeah, absolutely.
There's no reason to think this is a leftist.
Also this didn't happen.
Oh, he's flying with a security detail.
Yeah, from Blackwater.
What?
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
I guess.
He says he doesn't go anywhere without his security now, which kind of why?
Cause he's a fucking super paranoid dude.
Oh yeah, that's right.
He's cultivated a fan base of unhinged lunatics who are violent and he has sent at people.
Right.
But not like, I mean, I suppose it's smart to preemptively assume that they're going
to turn on him.
Well, I mean, it's just be like, well, these people are crazy and I am very visible.
So they're probably going to come after me sooner or later.
I think if you create an environment and a group that is sort of, I would say, defined
by just accepting things with lack of evidence, being incredibly paranoid, just full of suspicion
about literally everything, you will eventually run afoul of that crowd.
I think that was the only lesson really that the French Revolution taught us.
Well, I mean, the terror is coming, but it's why Alex needs to do things like go to LA
to be on podcasts.
Because now that he doesn't have his social media, doesn't have the YouTube algorithms
to exploit, he has no intake.
It's like what we've talked about all the time.
This is why his business model is falling apart.
Eventually the people that get indoctrinated into what he does become suspicious of him
and go away to harder things.
That flow hasn't changed, but the inflow has.
That's why it's falling apart.
That's why de-platforming for someone like Alex is like valuable.
Well, yeah.
Effective.
Well, and someone like Milo, he's certainly seen a much sharper fall, but that's because
he had less groundwork, less of a foundation to build upon.
Alex has, you know, at least a business here that takes a while for it to like all the
gears to completely stop working, but we're seeing that.
Milo didn't actually create anything and he definitely didn't have a 20 some odd year
background.
No.
Yeah.
And that's what you're seeing.
And yeah.
I mean, obviously Alex is aware of that.
Yeah.
I mean, if he's ever read an email from any of his listeners or actually experience any
time he's run into listeners in the public, like he knows, eventually, they're going to,
they're not.
The wave comes back, you know, there's undertow.
Yeah.
So Alex at this point brings in Eddie and Sam.
Cool.
They're on for the better part of two hours of the show and they're coming back on Friday's
episode.
What are they?
Vacationing in Austin?
They're doing, they did a show either, I think it's either Friday or Thursday night.
I can't remember, but they're there to do a show cause they do a podcast together and
then I guess they do a live standup, something or a who gives who gives a shit.
I think this is very interesting.
This, this like in the past, we've experienced Eddie Bravo and Alex as on Joe Rogan's show.
Right.
And we've seen Alex need Eddie to be there to be like sort of a pressure release valve.
If something's going too bad for Alex, he can just yell at Eddie about flat earth and
then everything is sort of, yeah, it's almost like a reset.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
I don't know how this would work on Alex's show cause I've heard Alex and Eddie on info
wars, just one on one, but adding this third sort of unknown variable of Sam Tripoli, right?
It's like, how's this going to go?
And we'll find out.
Ladies and gentlemen, you've got Eddie Bravo and Sam Tripoli in studio with us for the
next two hours and Paul Joseph wants it takes over.
I guess that was an unnecessary clip.
I could have just told you that the two of them were on, which I did.
And then I played that clip.
Anyway, you do always have to back up everything you say, right?
That is true.
That is true.
You do need to provide evidence for everything.
So in this next clip, they talk about how racism is kind of fun sometimes.
It's like we got away from like what racism is, is like, you're horrible people.
I mean, it's funny doing that and I make fun of white people, rednecks and stuff.
And I did that whole Chinese dragonling.
I'm now what can scum.
It's fun.
Don't double down.
It's fun.
Jesus Christ.
It's why don't people get that I am allowed to oppress people with no repercussions?
It's fun.
It's fun.
So he talks a bit about Trudeau and his blackface situation.
Right.
Right.
Most of it is just comparing it to tropic thunder and like it's fun and tropic thunder.
It's not fun for you, Trudeau.
Okay, but that's what satire is.
Now we have an actual satire.
So there, these guys, their conversation is a lot of yelling.
Yeah.
Um, it is not coherent right in most, uh, senses Sam Tripoli really wants to talk about
Jeffrey Epstein and also what Alex thinks about Julian Assange and Alex keeps saying,
we're going to get to it next.
Sure.
He kicks the can all the way down the road to the end of the show where he says the Julian
Assange should be freed and that Jeffrey Epstein was involved in trying to blackmail
scientists.
Okay.
And he knows this from high level intelligence sources.
He's talking about the MIT situation.
Gotcha.
Gotcha.
So, uh, it's more important that, uh, they, they get into the bigger issues while they
yell.
And one of them is that the globalists, they want transhumanism.
Sure.
Right.
And Sam Tripoli knows why, well, you know what it is, man, they want transhumanism because
they know when they die and they go to the archons, they're going to have to go some
lesser form and come back as like a one-eyed woodchuck because they're such evil people
and they'll never go to a higher level and hang out with the gods.
You know what I'm saying?
That's it.
They're scumbags.
They're, they're lizards.
They have no consciousness.
And this is as high as they get.
They're just feeding on us.
And they don't want to go.
And they don't want to go.
We're in a horrible form.
Yep.
By the way, they admit that.
Yep.
Yep.
They admit that.
So they all believe in reincarnation.
Wow.
That's good.
It's interesting.
Hey, is that part of Alex's cosmology and his weird version of Christianity?
It is today.
There is, you know, we are going to heaven, but you gotta take, you gotta break the 10,000
year wheel first.
You know, like Jesus Christ, man.
And the archons will be the deciders of, if you come back as a woodchuck.
Who's even thrown around archon anymore?
Weirdos.
That's fucking crazy.
Yeah.
It's kind of weird.
Here we run into like an essential problem that I have that I really don't like about
episodes like this.
Yeah.
Of Alex's show.
And that is that Sam Tripoli is a comic.
So like it's really difficult to disambiguate like what is trying to be funny and what is
actually like a position.
Yeah.
Like when he's yelling about this, like you can obviously see like they don't want to
come back as a one-eyed woodchuck.
That was Tripoli.
Yeah.
Okay.
That's a line.
Yeah.
That's like that.
Yeah.
You know, like you can see the craft of being funny in there.
But at the same time, it's in the middle of expressing an idea that I think he probably
believes that is these people want to create robots.
They can put their brain in so they never have to die and face the archons.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's like, where is the line between what you actually believe and what's a joke?
And it's always hard to figure out.
So I try to err on the side of like, eh, he's probably fucking around.
Right.
Like if there's someone who fucks around for a living.
Right.
But that becomes very difficult when you're on a show with Alex fucking Jones.
Yeah.
That is, that is the most humorless person in the world.
I don't know how you would even try and get humor into the show.
I mean, if you're a professional comedian, obviously the easiest way is to make poop
jokes.
Sure.
If you make poop jokes, you have destroyed and you, you know, when you read the room,
you say poop jokes are going to work here.
Oh yeah.
But, but if you're an actual, actual comic trying to be actually funny.
Good fucking luck.
God, everything sails over his head.
Right.
Yeah.
For the most part.
Yeah.
And then he just says like, oh yeah, that's actually, you know, it's in a white paper.
Yeah.
You know, you make a joke when it's actually true.
Of course.
Of course.
Yeah.
Now I get it.
So Sam Tripoli wants to fight John Bolton.
That's big news breaking here on knowledge fight.
Sam Tripoli looking to fight an old man.
Yeah.
I'm fine with that.
Okay.
I don't think I've, I don't think I've ever been more fine with somebody just beating
up an old man.
After that, after that revelation comes out, Alex reveals some information of his own about
John Bolton.
I want to fight John Bolton for charity.
I say right here, John Bolton, me, you in the octagon fight all money goes to charity.
That, let me tell you, that's a purve stash.
Yeah.
That is.
That is.
In fact, he's into some purse stuff.
Yeah.
He's a 1985 hardcore gay porn stash.
He is a leather daddy.
I'd like to remind you that this is a family show.
Jesus Christ.
I'd also like to remind you that Alex thinks he's a libertarian.
Right.
Right.
Right.
He's into some purve stuff.
Yeah.
Which I don't judge.
I'm just saying he's going to hell and the Arkons aren't going to let him come back as
anything rather than a one-eyed wood check that's into fucking auto eroticist investigation.
Right.
Family show.
Yeah.
I'd also like to remind you that this is still a family show as this next clip begins.
Yeah.
Jared Kushner likes it weird too.
He looks like he likes to have sex with a knife to his throat.
Anybody else?
He does look like that.
Oh, my God.
I ran into a little bit of an issue and that is the verbally and vocally Sam Tripoli sounds
almost identical to Owen Benjamin.
Oh, okay.
Like the two of them sound very similar.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Why are we kink shaming?
Why are we kink shaming?
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know.
There are so many reasons to hate Kushner.
He's a fucking slumlord exploitative racist bullshitter who's married to the worst woman
in the world whose dad is the worst man in the world and they're going to kink shame
him.
That's what they got.
Fuck off.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, but again, that's like making a joke.
That's making the joke.
Is it?
I mean, I guess he's trying, but he sucks at it.
If that's the joke, I mean, that just sucks.
That just sucks.
Well, I'm not saying he's a good comic.
I'm saying that the intention of a joke is there.
Right.
And that's what makes it so difficult.
Right.
In fact, you know what?
I'll be honest with you.
Like Sam Tripoli's voice and delivery is so similar to Owen Benjamin.
He has some things that, you know, sound similar to some of the things that Owen Benjamin says
that are not good that I actually had to go check.
Yeah.
I'd be like, so you got a clip of Owen Benjamin?
No, no, no, no, I had to go like find a video of this episode because it's like, I'm not
positive this isn't Owen Benjamin pretending to be so, but that I remember that Owen Benjamin
used to do the fourth hour on Info Wars.
Right.
Right.
Like Alex would know who won Benjamin.
You'd remember.
I would assume so.
Yeah.
I, although I imagine that if Owen Benjamin were going to imitate Sam Tripoli, it would
be with a horrible Chinese accent.
Right.
Probably.
Yeah.
That makes sense.
They sound very similar.
And then they say shit like this, which is like, again, I understand he's a comedian,
but like there's a weird blurring of the lines of like, what do you think?
What are you joking about?
We all know that Hitler was a gay Jew shill.
He used to do.
He was Jewish.
He's a raw child and he had a crystal meth problem, which means you're going to get weird
and try to stuff stuff into your prison wallet.
Okay.
And it just, he was obviously controlled opposition.
So it's true.
I mean, it's true.
The guy was in the way.
He was set up by British intelligence.
They had a peace treaty.
No dude, he was a Rothschild.
They were the king of England.
He was a Rothschild.
He was the EU.
Is that, I mean, is that proven?
Yeah.
It's actually true that he's a Rothschild.
Yeah.
Well, his father was homeless and his grandma, his grandmother was the main Rothschild house.
So I just don't under, I don't know what, at what point are you like goofing around
and be like, Hitler was a gay Jewish show.
And when, when you continue the point and keep trying to argue it, right, you're not
joking anymore.
You're making an argument.
I don't see now.
I think he's genuinely just like really committing to the bit of like, I don't think so.
I don't know.
There's no possible way that he could believe that it's just not, I mean, I guess a podcast
with Eddie Bravo.
That's true.
He can believe anything.
And he's making Eddie seem fucking rational.
Exactly.
That's why it's got to be, it's got to be him being like, if I'm going to go on Infowars,
I am going to out conspiracy theory, Alex.
I don't know.
That's the only thing that makes sense to me.
It really makes me wish that I had, you know, unlimited time and I could like really just
listen to hundreds of hours of Sam Tripoli to know if he's fucking with Alex or not.
I might keep it on hand if SNL ever hires him.
My hunch is that he's not.
I don't think that this is fucking with Alex.
I don't think it's like making a grand joke out of being on Infowars, but at the same
time, I think he's trying to be funny in his own presentation, which makes things pretty
difficult.
I can say that he's just wrong about a lot of stuff like this.
We crushed that segment, dog.
We crushed that.
Yeah, you have done well, Lord.
Yeah, they crushed that segment.
This is a train wreck.
It's pretty bad.
It's, it's really all things, all things being equal.
It's not good.
No, it made it so like, I was thinking like, wow, Eddie Bravo and Sam Tripoli are going
to be in studio two days in a row.
This is going to be insanity by the time I was like halfway through this, I was like,
I'm definitely not listening to Friday.
This is enough of this.
It's surprising how out there it can be.
Well, at the same time, being incredibly boring and stupid.
Oh yeah, you're bored.
Uh, I mean, would you rather Alex cover kooky crap like UFOs?
I would.
Those have turned out to be real.
Unfortunately, Alex Jones does not cover kooky crap like UFOs.
Why not?
I'll cover all the kooky stuff and all the guys that saw UFOs, the government bases
and all that made up crap.
It's interdimensional.
It's satanic.
Like the Bible says, and they're literally programming humans to build and change
the earth into something for them.
And then I guess they physically show up after that, but they're, they went to
collaborators, made a deal and they go, you're going to merge with machines.
You got to kill everybody, but we'll let a few of you work with us.
If you kill yourselves, you'll become gods.
Don't believe these devils.
So Alex doesn't believe kooky crap like UFOs, but what he does believe is that
there's interdimensional demons who have tricked a bunch of humans into being
collaborators with them, wherein they destroy the environment in some such
way that makes it so the demons can physically materialize.
And then everybody dies or something like that, because it's like the Bible.
So that's not kooky.
That's not kooky crap.
No, that's, that's rational.
That's grounded.
Yeah.
That's, that's, look, Occam's razor says that all of those things are the only
possible answer, honestly.
Totally.
Yeah.
Well, it was Sherlock, Sherlock said famously, right, uh, that, uh, once you
eliminate the impossible, all that's left, no matter how improbable is done by
the fucking globalists, I remember that and interdimensional demons.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So cool.
Yeah.
That's what Moriarty was.
I do really do.
I do enjoy that.
Like Alex has such a bot, like such a skew towards his own ideas that like,
he impunes ufology in order to be like, that's crazy.
This is not, it is always wanting to find, uh, but, you know, it's not like
that's a line though.
It's, it's a strategy, you know, well, I mean, it's, you see the same thing in
Project Camelot, like Harry being like, you think the raptors are bad.
I beg your pardon.
I know Mark Richards.
Yeah.
The raptors are good.
And I'll hear no other, uh, yeah.
Yeah.
It's, yeah.
And in these worlds, that happens a lot.
Yeah.
You have to own your space.
And if you don't own your space, somebody's going to kick you out of it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like drug dealing.
You've got your corner.
When everything is kind of make believe, uh, yeah, you have to be aggressive about it.
Um, so when I was sort of wrestling with whether or not I believe Sam Tripoli is
fucking around, um, this next clip really kind of helped put it in focus for me
where I'm leaning towards, he's not.
Yeah.
Um, and I'll let you decide what you think.
And the audience certainly can feel whatever they like, but I think this
indicates on some level that he's really into this stuff and that he believes at
least a good part of it.
Google creates the social score, right?
And China's so scared of the head of Google, uh, uh, turning on them that they
basically poison him and his kids.
And they're like, either you play ball or she won't have to poison.
And he's like, I'm playing ball.
One of his daughters passes away and he has to go to like North Korea to get a
remedy.
That's all real, dude.
I've heard the Chinese mafia is like killing everybody right now in LA.
It's crazy, dude.
Oh, dude, really?
They're in LA.
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
So what he's talking about there, what Sam is talking about, there's a little
kernel of truth to it.
Um, uh, and that is that Eric Schmidt did take his daughter, Sophie along, uh,
when he went to North Korea to visit there.
The rest of this is conspiracy theory bullshit.
That's based on an anonymous source who talked to a group called anonymous
Patriots claiming to be a former lover of Eric Schmitz.
Oh, all of this completely unsubstantiated shit comes from a
post on a blog that could have been written by anyone, uh, down to the
claims that the trip to North Korea was about getting an antidote to the
poison that China had given Schmitz a daughter.
Okay.
Anonymous Patriots is a group that appears to either, uh, uh, be a part of
or the same thing as a group called American intelligence media, which as
best as I can tell is a group of retirees who talk into their webcams about
Trump a bunch, right?
And so they are one of the three of their words in their name.
You pick which one.
Interestingly, they've also interviewed Leo Zagami about the evils of the
Vatican.
Sure, sure, he'll go anywhere.
Well, they, what did they, do they not know he did 9 11?
They haven't heard.
I assume they would hate him.
Uh, they're also really big into the 432 Hertz vibration conspiracy, which I
assure you will be a wacky Wednesday episode down the road.
Wait, is that like the poop frequency?
No, there's a conspiracy that, uh, like the evil globalists, uh, fill in
whatever group name you want.
Yeah, they took over the music industry and changed the vibration, uh, of music
in order to put bad vibes into the public and that all of these artists that die
young are people who tried to go with the 432 Hertz, right?
Because they were trying to bring positivity back into music.
Okay.
And then the globalists took them out.
All right.
It has to do with those like, uh, sort of debunked studies, right?
Like the water crystals and stuff.
Oh God.
It's a mess.
All right.
There is a guy, uh, who showed up on project Camelot and on info wars who's
super into those conspiracies and I promise we'll cover it event down the road.
It's complete nonsense, but these people are super into it.
They post a bunch of videos of, uh, 432 Hertz, uh, music and I spent 10 years
programming hearing aids, uh, 432 Hertz is not any more special than any
other of the frequency man.
You drank the Kool-Aid, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I looked into these people's website and as best I can tell, it's just a group
of old people who are really into the political power of memes and not so much
into demonstrating their points.
The big difference between them, uh, and Alex seems to be that Alex sells
colloidal silver, whereas American intelligence media just gives out a
recipe for it.
There's tell you how to make your own.
Oh, well, I mean, you're going to need a little bit of Ebola blood.
Sure.
And then you put it in together with colloids and then you get some silver
and you're good to go.
Oh, and also American intelligence media were the people who originally
posted the image of the judge in Roger Stone's case with crosshairs on her,
which Roger retweeted, uh, and that got him that gag order.
So they're in the mix.
They're good.
They're good people.
Yeah.
That's what you're, that's what you're telling me.
So that's where all these claims, uh, originate.
And the argument basically goes that China has poisoned the Schmidt family and
now they have to do their bidding or else China will stop giving them the antidote.
I'm not an expert on these matters, but I'm not actually sure there are real
poisons that work that way outside of movies.
Given the lack of any specifics in this person's anonymous post, I find it
uncompa, uh, unconvincing and impossible to look into.
So I don't care.
No, I read a book, uh, Red Seas and Red Skies.
It was a, in the gentlemen bastard series.
And that was heavily involved.
Are there poisons that they just give you.
And then like, if you don't keep taking the antidote, you die.
Like that seems weird from a biological standpoint.
I mean, it sounds like it goes against most of what we know about stuff.
I'm not a biologist.
I could be wrong, but that seems like, what's the name of that?
Yeah, uh, Iocane powder is that one thing that's a red flag, but there's the
way the story seems to be being told is also just the chronology.
As expressed by Sam in that last clip, the theorists try to tie the death
of Eric Schmidt's other daughter in to strengthen their claims.
The implication is that Schmidt refused to play ball with the Chinese.
So they killed his other daughter.
And in desperation, he took his, uh, surviving daughter to North Korea to
get the antidote to save her life.
The problem is that that trip to North Korea took place in 2013 and his
other daughter passed away in 2017.
So that does confuse things a little bit from a chronology standpoint.
It doesn't matter though.
Theories like this are based on nothing.
And they're very easy to tweak when you need to accommodate new information.
So they could just be like, well, he went in 2013, but he secretly went again
or whatever.
Fine.
Yeah, get it in there.
Over my, uh, the course of my time doing this podcast and even before that,
in recreational times, I've read a whole lot of dumb blogs that purport to be
disseminating real information.
This is one of them.
Yeah.
And this is the sort of place people get this quote unquote deep information from.
This is not something you would know about unless you looked into these worlds
and unless you're pretty involved in dumb conspiracy.
Yeah.
That implies to me that Sam Tripoli is probably somebody who reads stupid shit
a lot and believes it has to be.
Cause you wouldn't know this one.
Right.
Alex doesn't even talk about that.
Right.
Oh, that is a good point.
This is, this is a revealing conspiracy theory because I thought it was all just
made up nonsense on a riff.
You know, he was just rapping on and keeping the riff gone.
But if this is an actual specific conspiracy theory, then yeah, he totally has
to believe that otherwise.
The fuck are you?
What, what the fuck are you doing?
The only other possibility, I guess, if you want to keep up the idea that
he's fucking around is that it's like a LARP or whatever.
Like, yeah, yeah, real deep.
Yeah, method acting like goes into the, uh, stupid conspiracy sites and finds
things in order to be like, this will help my character and I find that to be
unlikely.
Yeah, that sounds right.
Yeah, I agree with you though.
If it was just something that I couldn't trace back to some kind of, uh, kind of
obscure source, then I would probably agree with you that it's just riffing,
but this is absolutely a conspiracy that exists subterraneanally in, uh, this
world.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, that's, that's why it was so confusing at first is because I
could totally see me.
Like if I start on something like that, you know, it's like with a, the closing
little dumb bit about the, the stick drive and how to get our podcast.
Like that's just wrapping and riffing.
And so I could wind up anywhere with that.
I have no idea where I'm going to go.
So probably not making claims that the Chinese government tried to murder
Eric Schmidt's family in order till we end this episode.
Not looking forward to that.
So, uh, Alex insists on playing the, uh, video of him, uh, pretending to be a
G for Eddie and Sam.
He really wants to impress them.
And, uh, Eddie's response is crazy.
You are not going to beat us.
Dude, that was amazing.
You can do that every show, man.
You should do voiceovers, bro.
I think you'd be in the next track.
I've got pretty big voiceovers.
You do, you do, but as soon as I, um, when I was back from Obama and stuff,
then they stopped giving me the work, but that's pretty big voiceovers.
I know, man.
You're my favorite voiceover actor.
Now you guys are awesome, but sure enough about me.
I have no evidence that Alex has done any voiceovers.
That's, that's cause every time you've heard, uh, he's, he's ramped up as
Chinese accent.
Every time you've heard a Chinese accent on the radio, that was him.
Um, I guess he could say that his work, like his own documentaries, when he
does the narration, but I don't know how criticizing Obama could take that
away. Uh, he even, he knew he, uh, I can't hire me anymore for this.
Oh no, this is too hot.
I got too much heat on me.
I don't, I don't see any reality behind that, uh, that claim.
I mean, I suppose he could say that, uh, rotoscope of, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, waking life, uh, that rotoscope could be.
Okay.
Richard Linklater didn't want to work with him anymore or something.
Yeah, that very well might be true.
Yeah, probably didn't have to do with Obama.
No, no, Alex, you're just a dick.
Yeah.
And what are you going to, what are you going to be in boyhood?
God, God, that would have been so good.
What, what is he going to be?
He's going to be like, uh, Celine's, uh, other, uh, man in, uh, the next, uh,
before sunrise.
Of course.
No, I don't think Linklater has a place for you outside of crazy guy in
rotoscoped movies here at midnight.
And Alex Jones will yell at you for an hour.
I don't, I don't know.
That could be what he's talking about.
He also was on like Jesse Ventura's show.
Yeah.
Um, and I guess that, uh, that other one decoded that, uh, Meltzer show.
Yeah.
Uh, he was on a couple.
I think he was just on the Bohemian Grove episode though.
Cause they tried to sneak into both and they're like, we gotta
get Alex to come along and they made a big production out of it.
Um, I, I don't, I just don't know what he's talking about.
So I'm going to, if I were Politifact, Politifact, I would
rate this claim dubious.
Yeah.
Is that how they, I don't think they write claims with dubious.
Probably not.
But I can't prove that it's not true.
Like what if Alex did some local commercials or something like that?
I mean, I guess you could call those pretty big.
Yeah.
I know I would be impressed.
I had a voiceover agent for a little while.
I got nothing.
Yeah.
That's true.
That's true.
I did a ton of, uh, auditions.
For, uh, for stuff that industry is fucked.
Yeah.
Crazy stuff.
Um, anyway, before I get into my real bitter rant about voiceover,
yeah, and your failings therein.
Yeah.
Um, let's, let's move right along because Alex has big news.
Okay.
So if you'll recall in the past, Alex has said that, you know,
Trump's got to get Greenland.
We got to get it.
Sure.
We need to get it.
Sure.
Alex has decided to move on from that.
Okay.
Good.
Though he was sincere.
Okay.
Uh, he's, it's time to move on.
Did you hear about the White House announcement?
What?
It's on info wars.com and the White House petitions.
I'm not going to talk about it until we come back, but it's big.
They have announced that there is a petition and the White House, the
president looking at it to announce a 51st state.
Yes.
What the 51st state is, we're not going to tell people yet.
The 51st state, ladies and gentlemen, this is not a joke.
This is a real proposal.
You thought Trump wanted Greenland?
Oh, the Americans.
Let's see.
We got to think big here.
The moon.
How does you guess it?
I saw one of your notes here.
American spy.
American spies.
Really?
That real?
It's real.
Go click on the link.
Who's idea is this mine?
Okay.
It's Alex's idea.
Erin X and the moon.
I do love how Eddie ruined the reveal there though.
Yeah.
Wait, wait a fucking run the bit.
I honestly think Eddie comes off the best.
Yeah, it seems like it's so far.
He seems like someone who's just like, whatever.
It really frustrates me that that really, that high pitch really was
not where I was coming from, which is you're still doing the Chinese thing.
That's pretty much still to see now.
That's why I would say really.
And then Alex was, you're going to annex the moon.
That's crazy.
Alex has presented it as if like, this is a serious proposal I know it's
making and the Trump is considering this Alex doing something for attention.
I just did a change.org petition.
That's what I fucking hate about listening to Alex's show in the present
day, like none of this means anything.
When I hear Alex say something like I started a position to make the moon,
the 51st state, it's something that's hard to ignore because it's stupid.
But at the same time, it's painfully obvious that this is a desperate cry
for attention.
Yeah.
You can almost hear Alex off air talking to Rob do trying to convince him of
the PR blitz that's going to come from media matters in the Huffington post,
making fun of Alex's petition to annex the moon.
You can almost see the intention behind this.
And it's all about trying to use other media outlets to give him free
press that he doesn't have access to himself.
Yeah.
That's all that's going on here because honestly, annexing the moon isn't
a serious suggestion to make even for Alex.
He knows damn well that that would be a very serious breach of international
law and probably grounds for war.
Yeah.
All countries that are capable of space travel have signed the 1967 outer space
treaty that explicitly makes space the property of everyone and forbids
countries from laying claim to things in outer space.
Anexing the moon would absolutely break that treaty, which would probably
piss off literally every other country on the planet.
Yeah.
Well, at the same time, they would breathe a long sigh of fuck off.
Right.
It would be, it would be a weird situation where it's like, we have to go to war
over this dumb bullshit.
Fuck you, Trump.
I don't want to do this.
You know who generally makes claims on outer space things?
Scam artists.
There's a pretty rich tradition of con men claiming that they own parts of
space in order to sell them to idiots.
Yeah.
In that kind of way, Alex is spiritually continuing their legacy, which
makes total sense because that's all he's up to.
This is just, it just makes me sad.
You see this like a racist trolling with the G video and you're like,
Oh, you're trying to give people to respond to this in order to get you in the,
and get your name in the media.
Oh, you're starting to change.org petition to annex the moon and pretending
Trump is taking it seriously in order to get impressed media.
Oh, yeah.
Hmm.
Sad.
It is, it is a bummer.
It really is.
What's, I think what's even more annoying is that where he to get that media
attention, he would get more people like supporting him just, just by being
mentioned as saying something stupid and then debunking it, people will
instinctively like circle the wagons and be like, I don't care about Alex
Jones whatsoever until you sent this message.
But now I know you're lying and I love Alex and fake news.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
I think with the moon one too, even more so than, than the G video, because
that goes into like what made him attractive to people in the first place,
which was craziness.
Whereas the other one is just racism.
Like you'll get some runoff from bigots from the people covering the G video,
but you'll get more people who are like just into paranormal space shit.
Um, I think that's probably like what he needs to do.
Like if he's smart, he would veer hard back into that stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But, uh, he's not smart.
So it's even more lame because it's not like he came up with the idea whole
cloth, like they were having hearings on DC becoming a state, right?
You know, so it's like, all he has to do is be like, Oh, look, they're doing
that.
So guess what?
Moons estate now too.
It's already done the Greenland, uh, yeah.
Yeah, that one's, that one's played out.
Yeah.
So they do talk a little bit about, uh, Shane Gillis, the guy who got
fired from SNL, right?
That's what I want to do.
Well, but we're not going to talk about that much.
That's just sort of a setup for what gets Sam into this mindset of like
complaining about the idea that you can't do anything anymore.
Uh, all these moralists are going to come down on you.
If you, uh, and so, uh, I think that he makes a really fallacious argument here.
I do a festival that the Legion of skanks people do.
They got mad at a show on Legion of skanks, got said some crazy stuff.
It's Legion of skanks.
Like, why are you bringing your private thing into something?
Yeah, it's ridiculous.
It's not for you.
Like, I hate the view.
The view is the worst show ever, but they can do that.
It's not for me.
So I should get them off the air.
No, you just use no wife, what you don't like.
Yeah.
It's like, let it go.
Let people do their own thing.
I tell you, the view is the stupidest show on the planet.
Alex spends so much time complaining about the view.
Like he spent so much time yelling about Joy Behar in the past.
Like, I understand that that might be Sam Tripoli's opinion, but he's on Alex's
show where he covers the view a lot.
Like, don't, don't try to pretend that like this is an exclusive behavior of
people on the left, let's say, or people who are upset about places that, uh, you
know, I guess the complaint about Louis CK, that he's, uh, that's what he's
talking about, the Legion of Skanks festival.
So they booked Louis CK and the idea that most people had was it creates an
unsafe working environment for potentially like young women comics that
might be uncomfortable being around him.
That was more the conversation than like Louis is going to say something offensive.
Right, right, right, right.
So I, I, I get that.
And I understand wanting to push back on that.
I mean, ah, you're being, uh, sensorious and moral policing and stuff.
But like, don't fucking pretend that you're not a guest on a show that
does the exact same thing just in reverse.
It's, it's ridiculous.
I, these people are so stupid.
And that's a dumb argument.
That's a dumb argument because if you live it, I don't think it's that dumb.
What if your position is wholly like everybody leave everybody alone.
If you do that yourself, then you can say it.
I don't know if it's smart, but I'm not going to argue with you.
I'm not going to fight you on it.
Right.
The fact that he's saying it on Alex's show makes it unacceptable.
I, I mean, if you, yeah, but if you do that, you're the unabomber.
Funny you should say that.
No, how is it?
We're not turning it into the guys who talk about the fucking unabomber.
Are we?
We're not.
Okay.
However.
Well, I mean, let's get into the, listen, dude, I mean, you might be a
Kavanaugh guy.
I think that whole sex thing was all drummed up to, uh, kind of frame it and
the sexual exports, but, uh, what do you think?
To change the subject away from Kavanaugh himself to something fake.
Yeah.
So what, like, oh, the guy wrote the Patriot act.
He believes that the president's above the law.
He's, uh, he's against, uh, he doesn't think that the cops need search warrants to
come in here.
There's a whole stuff, a whole lot of stuff that they didn't want you actually
discussing.
So they brought this thing and they had this woman whose father was in charge
of, uh, finding funding for CIA black ops or observations.
Well, I mean, the lawsuit for it does work for the CIA.
Yeah.
She's part of that whole recruitment center that whole, he runs a recruitment
center at Stanford, where they, they just shish kabob, the unabomber, and you
should read the unabombers manifesto and realize the guy nailed everything that's
going on.
He was right.
He was in MK ultra.
There we go.
Yep.
Yep.
How crazy is it that you brought the, the unabomber and the next clip was Sam
Tripoli yelling about how the unabomber was right.
Well, because his argument is unabombers argument.
It's very simple.
He's that guy at a party, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's, that's a Drew Michaels bit all over the, the like, don't read the
unabombers manifesto.
I don't want to be the guy who's like, actually, if you read the manifesto,
there's a few, you don't need to be that guy.
There's no point.
I'm not sure that was his bit, but that might be what you took away from it.
Something along those lines.
It's, uh, yeah, I mean, like, all right, sure, whatever.
I don't, uh, I don't care.
I listen to this.
I don't care.
No, this is a rambly, yelly dude who you've already seen, like kind of
where some of the claims he'll repeat come from.
I don't give a fuck what you're saying anymore.
No, no.
And now, and now you've just completely embodied the guy I don't want to talk
to, which is like just, just perfectly crystallized as yelling, the unabomber was
right, because if you're saying that, then you probably agree that his
conclusions are right too.
Right.
Like, do you think it was right for him to mail bombs?
Well, I mean, he was right in a more broad to what extent, to what extent was
the man right, you know, you had, look, you got to wake people up somehow.
And it was the seventies.
Everybody was unabombing at the time.
That's a normal thing to do.
Sure.
But yeah, if somebody, yeah, if somebody seriously says the unabomber was
right, you can extrapolate all the other shit you don't like about them immediately.
Yeah.
It's, it's kind of a tell.
Yeah.
That's how I want to greet people at parties like, Hey, you think the unabombers
right?
Cool.
Then we can hang out.
Um, so Alex gets back to the annexing the moon thing.
Um, and I think in this next club, we kind of figure out what this is all about.
We are pushing for the 51st state of the United States to not be Greenland.
Which is a good strategic move, move.
We bought Alaska.
We bought a lot of other areas.
It makes perfect sense.
The globalists don't want us doing it.
They want the UN to control the Arctic, the Antarctic.
They want the UN and global government to control these things and not have nation
states that people can actually elect and control to some extent to have this.
Well, document cam shot, please drum roll.
Let's think bigger here.
Let's annex the moon as the 51st state, sign the White House petition.
Again, I need to be totally clear about this.
Yeah.
What Alex is doing is making a White House petition.
I mean, that'll never happen.
But imagining that it would, he's advocating an international crime.
Right.
Like he is, he is trying to convince the White House to do something that is, it
would be an incident.
Right.
Right.
Right.
01:02:25,900 --> 01:02:25,900
01:02:25,900 --> 01:02:26,420
Right.
This is crazy.
Well, I watched Aqua Teen Hunger Force and I, I know that the moon and nights are
dicks.
So I would say we don't even want them as a state.
You know what?
Not positive that in the time I've listened to the show, Alex has advocated
for an international crime.
I mean, buying Greenland, I don't know if that would be an international crime.
It would be severely fucked up, but through the channels of buying the country.
Yeah.
If that were something that were possible, that wouldn't necessarily be like
completely against international law.
Right.
It's been a long time since the country has bought a country, but annexing the moon.
Uh, oh boy.
Well, and then we'd have to annex a slave state, of course, in order to offset the,
all right.
A slave plan.
Well, we are the slave.
We are the prison.
Well, that's fair enough.
Um, I don't know what the, the deal is with this.
You know what I mean?
Like I don't know if this is the same as like Alex trying to advocate for Trump
to commit a different international crime, right, but it would be.
Yeah.
I know it's goofy and it's stupid, but at the same time he's advocating for a crime.
Yeah.
I don't think I genuinely don't think anybody cares.
Nope.
But Alex wants them to care because it's about the publicity.
Linked at info wars.com.
I'm not joking.
We walked on the moon and he's going to talk about tomorrow.
I believe that I'm joking.
First, so we can claim it and plus we're in America better than the UN,
the Chai comms are all these other folks.
So sign the petition.
None of those other countries are going to claim the moon.
He's acting like we've got to do it before they do.
Yeah.
Well, we're in a new space race.
Apparently the space race to just say the moon is ours.
Right.
That one's a lot harder than the whole, you know, building rockets and ask
not what your country is based on a false premise.
No, you just say the moon is ours.
No, ridiculous.
And drum roll, please look at this.
These shirts are being printed as we speak.
There'll be a next week.
This designer cloth feels really great.
He's not selling shirts.
Yes.
It's a full color.
It's the astronaut coming over the moon.
It says operation 51st state space force on the right arm.
The back news wars.
It is amazing.
No reviews yet.
Uh, but the shirt, I did this so quick today.
It can't be 1995.
It's a designer shirt.
The printing costs more of the shirt costs $10.
The printing's going to cost $3.
I told them I moved quick.
It's getting pretty right now.
It's going to be, it's going to be $29.95.
I guess you can get your order in as $9.95, but that's how we do these plug shirts.
Things are moving quick.
So it's all about selling a shirt.
It's going to be a $30 shirt.
Yeah.
It's all buzz marketing for the shirt.
Like he's doing this change.org petition that he knows no one's going to take
fucking seriously, even if a billion people signed it.
No one's going to fucking annex the moon.
You need to change international law in order to do that.
He's doing it in order to drum up like possible coverage for it in
order to drive sales for this stupid shirt.
Yeah.
But also the fact that he's putting out more shirts and all this stuff, it
makes me think that that, uh, that we have a year left thing might have been
more of a sales ploy.
Yeah.
I'm leaning closer to that direction than it being a sincere existential
threat.
Yeah, it seems more like the, the products that we have a year left on is
all the supplement shit.
And it's not like the show is going to end.
It's just easy to stop selling supplements.
Maybe I don't, I don't know.
I mean, he's like now at like 75% off or something.
Yeah.
He's claiming, I don't know if it's true, but he's claiming some of it is like
below cost.
Yeah.
Like he's just losing money on selling it.
Right.
I don't know how much of that is true.
It could just be all bravado and nonsense sales, but like, it doesn't
feel like, it doesn't feel like he, that was sincere.
It's what I'm, I'm getting at.
So Eddie's response to this is, uh, immediately to be like, you know, you
should do, you should change the name of that to operation state 51.
Cause he's doing a play on area 51.
Right.
And Alex is not quite picking up on what he's talking about.
Of course not.
And Eddie keeps being like, no, no, no, you need to change the name.
Trust me, change the name.
Oh boy.
And it's, uh, it's, you know, it is what it is.
It's not that interesting way over his head because what's more interesting
is that Alex has an idea for Eddie.
He wrote the declaration of indemundance.
No, no, no, no.
He has an idea about how the UFC, a very successful company can get a, a
doubling of their audience, I believe.
And his idea is pretty brilliant.
No.
I can tell the UFC, how to double their audience right now.
A hundred and a half.
There's a lot of ways.
Actually I'm glad he enters.
Let them kill each other.
Okay.
But I don't, I'm not for that, but you can have like the biggest guys,
like Brock Lesnar at his peak or whatever, and then they'll fight like
say three, uh, lightweights at the same time.
Yep.
Let's do it.
That would double viewers.
Oh hell yeah.
Add some pit bulls.
Shit.
Break records.
I think Eddie is dismissive there.
That is totally Eddie being dismissive.
I think he's like, yeah, great idea.
Let's fucking do dog fighting too.
Let's have humans fight animals.
Yeah.
That would boost ratings.
That is, that is fun.
Let's have three little guys fight a big guy.
That is fun.
Eddie Bravo is so fucking stupid everywhere.
But if you step into his fucking room, he's going to fuck, he's going to
put you down.
UFC is his thing and he's going to be like, oh yeah, that's a great fucking
idea. You idiot.
I don't think that's it.
I think that he's maybe matured a little bit.
I, I get, I don't know.
This is probably this is speculation given, given no other context.
Yeah.
I would say that it sounds more like Eddie is hip to Alex more than he has been
in the past and he's still in the same way that Joe, uh, is less willing to
believe things site unseen that he might have been 15 years ago.
Right.
It seems like Eddie might also be a little bit like,
this guy might be full of shit, but whatever we're friends.
It seems like he's putting up with him more whereas Sam is the, the Eddie of the
show.
Right, right, right.
Cause Sam doesn't have as much experience there.
Yeah.
Sam hasn't been burned as many times.
It's possible.
I don't know.
Sam is just a bigger idiot.
It's the vibe.
It's the vibe I got while I was listening to this is like, Eddie feels over it and
kind of like whatever.
And Sam seems like he's eager to impress Alex and yell a whole bunch about
the bullshit that is a fun microcosm of the very situation that we're talking
about with Alex's ebb and flow of listener.
They, you know, they jump in, they listen for a while.
They listen to what Alex has to say.
They get burned too many times and then they go and then Sam is our new listener
who jumps in.
He's interested in what he has to say for a while.
And then when he gets burned enough, he's going to go probably, you know,
realize that Alex just, it has no idea what he's talking about.
Just make shit.
Yeah.
01:09:35,460 --> 01:09:35,460
01:09:35,460 --> 01:09:35,700
Yeah.
But maybe Sam's the kind of guy who also likes to do that sort of
thing and it's a good partnership and he won't disappear.
Yeah.
That's fair.
But whatever the case, maybe Sam's about to host the fourth hour a lot could be.
It's a strange dynamic, uh, but, uh, Alex, I gotta remind you before this next
clip, this is a family show.
Yeah.
The ever like dirty street with the ladies, like little jujitsu in the bedroom,
like, you know, say that again, little jujitsu in the bedroom.
I know we don't do that.
That's good.
I like hot chicks who do jujitsu because they choked me out and I, I, I know
come on, come on, family show.
Wow.
Family show.
I, I don't like, I don't like any of that.
All bad.
He was even trying to be funny with that whole thing.
And that was worse.
I do like Eddie's say that again.
Do you like that sort of like, come on.
No, no, we don't do that.
Oh man.
Um, so they, they start talking about, uh, Trump's election a little bit.
And I, I think that this clip is really interesting because I think it really
highlights how Alex can't quite get his story straight about whether or not
Trump was elected by the will of the people or by good guys.
Yeah.
The intelligence community.
I think he can't quite square that they're mutually exclusive things.
Right.
Um, and so he just says both.
The globalists made a deal.
They married the chai cons and, and, and so at the 11th hour, 58th minute, US
intelligence had a civil war put Trump in.
He was really elected, but it's not the Russians did it.
US intelligence put Trump in a ragtag group and now they're threatening
everybody, attacking their families.
And then if you support them like me, I'm not in any intelligence group or
it's private, organic Texan, then they come after you.
I mean, it's been, it's been amazing.
I love that.
But I mean, it's real total toe of these people and they're a bunch of devil
worse, pedophiles.
It's a devil worse being pedophile group against us.
We're going to, that's why.
God or Jesus, it's Jesus versus.
So I, I don't, I don't think you can make the argument that, uh, good guys
in the intelligence community installed Trump and simultaneously it was the
American people who put him in.
Not just that.
It was a ragtag band of heroes.
Dan, we got, we got our Bruce Willis.
We got our Ben Affleck.
We got our Steve, all of them are Steve Botany.
We got Steve Buscemi as well.
It was also Steve.
Yeah.
And then, but he was also actually elected William Binney is in the mix.
Sure.
Sure.
All of it's, it's horseshit.
See what was happening is the will of the people was we elected him, but then
the bad CAA people were going to say we didn't elect him.
So then the ragtag band of heroes came in and reoriented the, like right.
It was a counter coup.
Legitimately on his show, the people are like the only person I really know for
sure who tells him about that ragtag gang of intelligence.
Yeah.
And the fact that Alex has now come to the point where he doesn't believe Steve
anymore, and we've gone back and seen why he should never have believed Steve.
It's crazy that he's held onto that piece of information that clearly is from
Steve, right?
Like it's very weird.
Like you need to reconsider things when the source of something is shown.
To be a liar.
No, no, no, no, that's, that's only going forward.
You can't, you can't ignore what Steve said ex post facto dad.
That's in the law.
Well, I mean, I guess if it means that you have to, like, if you completely
change everything you do to accommodate the bad information, it becomes really
difficult to own up to the fact that I got tricked by this dude.
Yeah.
Especially if you claim to be right 99% of the time and then you have to go
back and go through your archives and be like, Oh, that one's Steve.
That wasn't true.
Oh, that one's Steve.
Oh my God.
That wasn't true.
Oh, it's a, it's a problem.
By, by batting average is down to a 88% always correct.
Certainly nowhere near that.
So Eddie and Sam, I think one of their main objectives and coming on the
show is to play a deep fake video that, uh, uh, Kyle Dunnigan comedian, Kyle
Dunnigan had made about Jeffrey Epstein's death where like Bill Clinton and
Donald Trump are trying to get Epstein to, uh, auto erotically exphyxiate
himself.
Oh, okay.
It's not great comedy.
So it's like a bit.
The two of them are talking to Epstein.
They're like, Hey, they're like eating popcorn and like trying to get to, yeah.
Oh yeah.
So this is definitely a family show.
It's a family show.
And it's also not funny.
It's, it is what it is.
I don't care.
What's more interesting is that after the video, Alex, there's a real
trend that he's trying to impress them and trying to like this is, this is so
perfectly encapsulating of that.
This is so crazy.
Okay.
So people that just saw them on TV understand what it was.
It's a joke.
Tell us who's doing the deep facts.
Kyle Dunnigan, uh, he, he's amazing.
He's a comedian.
He's a master.
Yeah.
So he's at the comedy store and he does his Instagram is, does he know Trump?
Because that's reportedly how Trump actually eats popcorn.
I don't know.
That's what he does.
Man studies his characters.
That's what he's the Daniel Day-Lewis of deep fakes.
That's what they call him.
Yeah.
Just go on Instagram and look up Kyle Dunnigan and he's got a whole bunch of
videos like that that are hysterical.
Yeah.
I was told by somebody hung out with Trump quite a bit that, uh, when he's
relaxing, he has to be really focused all the time, but he'll get in his theater
room or whatever.
And he'll just be, you know, basically in a robe or whatever.
And he actually just throws popcorn in his face and it just does that.
I was like, whoa, this guy's no Trump.
That's like inside baseball.
And he's connected.
Uh, yeah, I've been told that by actually two people.
I asked my, the nose tremor really, no, that's actually true.
That's what he does.
Oh my God.
Trump throws popcorn at his face.
This is inside information.
Yeah.
That's, uh, so.
Alex is so desperate to act like he knows secret things or like, uh, like,
Hey man, uh, you know, I know things that only friends would know.
Oh, it's so like, that's so sad.
Yeah.
You know what's more likely?
That's how an asshole eats popcorn and he's to a caricature of an asshole.
That is how an asshole eats popcorn.
Oh man.
We either that or we elected Howard Hughes, I suppose.
That's pretty much it.
You know, I don't begrudge anyone for hanging out in a robe, watching a film or
whatever, or usually not.
If you got a personal theater for yourself and who amongst us hasn't tossed food at
our face, throw it in the air and try and catch it in your mouth.
Everybody likes to have fun every now and again.
Right.
That's not inside information information.
I, I, it would have been any detail.
It could have been any detail in that anything in that video.
And he would have been, Oh man, I know people who said that that's true.
He could be drinking through a straw.
And you're like, did you know the Trump always uses a straw?
He totally uses a straw.
No matter what cup, no matter what cup always uses straw.
It could be mug straw.
It's just so desperate to be like associated straw.
I got to impress you guys.
Like you guys like this stuff.
Yeah.
I'm in it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm going to get Trump to get us the moon.
I am from the dark.
Yeah.
Sad.
So they start complaining.
This is the last clip I've got here because I mean, this, this
shit's all over the place, whatever.
And I don't think it's really worthwhile to go over him just yelling
about how Trump needs to let a Sange go, whatever he cares.
And Alex's Epstein stuff.
I really don't find interesting at all.
And I find kind of irresponsible and I'm not super interested in it.
But Alex and the guests are complaining about the young Turks and whatever.
I'm sick of them being right.
Uh, I, I, I don't know.
I don't, I don't, I have mixed feelings on some of this, but I think
that they're being very unfair.
Um, and then also Sam Tripoli says something at the end of this that is a
strong indication that some of his beliefs might be much worse than even, uh,
he's presenting on this episode.
And then he names it after the militia that did it, the young Turks.
He knew what he was doing, dude.
You know, and you know, you're wrong.
We, and again, that was Muslims killing Christians.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We could get in chisarians, but you know, that's another story.
That's another story, but yeah, it's real.
So what I have zero interest in going to bat for Jenk and the, uh, young Turks,
like Jenk in particular has had some really fucking terrible opinions in the
past, but to his credit, I have definitely seen him respond to criticism in a human
way, reflecting that his positions have changed and all that shit.
Sure.
That's probably not the case for all the things he said that have been not great,
but I know that he's absolutely addressed the horrible things that he'd written
on his blog, uh, and positions that he had that were denying of the Armenian
genocide.
Oh shit.
Yeah.
I did not know about that.
Yeah.
When he was younger, he had some denialist claims about the Armenian genocide.
That's terrible stuff.
Yeah.
That's definitely a big asterisk on his credibility, but he's been pretty
consistent in the more recent past.
I should say very consistent in the more recent past that he didn't know enough
back then, he shouldn't have commented on the issue and that he believes that
the genocide is real.
I don't know if that lets him off the hook or if anyone should trust his judgment
at all.
I don't know.
That's a choice everyone's got to make for themselves.
And I don't really have a strong position on it.
I don't think, I don't think that like genocide denialism is something that you
can take lightly, even if someone corrects their position.
Yeah.
Like I think that's pretty out there, but at the same time, I understand being
like learning more.
Yeah.
I don't think it's impossible to change.
And I give the benefit of the doubt that it is, right?
Because when you have somebody who's a Holocaust denier, generally, you don't
see the progression of them like apologizing and coming around to like, I had
terrible information.
I didn't know enough.
I never should have said those things.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't, that behavior isn't really typical of people who are died in the
wool denialists.
Right.
Right.
Right.
So I don't know.
So I don't, I don't know exactly what to make of, uh, Jank, uh, and his, uh, his
positions, I don't, I don't have a strong position on it.
I guess I don't, I don't know.
Uh, but the name of the young Turks, I don't think it's a reference to the
militia that was involved in the Armenian genocide is Alex and Sam Tripoli are
suggesting Jank was born in Istanbul and his original show was just called the
young Turk because he's young and Turkish.
One of the problems with Alex and Tripoli deciding that the young Turks is a
reference to that militia, um, is that, uh, you know, to do so, to say that is to
ignore literally all the other times groups have used the name young Turks.
It's a pretty common name.
Typically it's a name that's been taken on by people who are trying to change
the direction of their own party from within.
For instance, a group of New Zealand politicians in the national party were
trying to push for reform in the sixties and they took on the name the young Turks.
The same is true of a group of Republicans who, uh, worked together after
Barry Goldwater lost that election really embarrassingly and tried to
replace leadership in the party.
Like they were, they tried to change things from within.
Right.
Right.
Right.
So while it's true that these groups all take their name from the Turkish
nationalist group, the young Turks who were involved in the Armenian genocide,
that is definitely true.
Um, and based on that, I would say that none of these groups should have used
that name and Rod Stewart shouldn't have made a song called young Turks in
1981.
Yeah, I would have chosen different names for all of it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He should have, he should have let a Ted Nugent name that song.
Sure.
That said, I think it's far more plausible that this term, the young Turks
has taken on a completely different context by the time that Jenks started his
show and the colloquial meaning of the word completely fit his mission, which is
to say that he wanted to change the democratic party from within.
And it also fit the description of himself, young and Turkish.
It makes sense as a name, given the use of the name in political
worlds and a descriptor of himself.
I don't think that he was trying to name himself after the Turkish
militia as much as he was using a term.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you want to argue about whether any of these groups should use the term,
like I said, maybe not, right, right, right.
Well, maybe not.
There's a, I mean, you know, just because something has
been, uh, what, I suppose, uh, laundered, I don't know, that, that very,
very negative connotation being passed through a bunch of different iterations
of, uh, using it as a, uh, positive term, you know, it's, it, you still don't
want, just, just because things may have changed, you're still not going to call
your show the Stasi, you know, like, you know, like, you just don't, just don't.
You know, I mean, like what, uh, you know, Nazi troops called storm troopers.
You got storm troopers in, uh, in, uh, the Star Wars universe.
Right.
But they're not the hero of your story.
Wonderful news in the new, uh, version.
No, that's fair.
Yeah.
That's fair.
It's not the exact same thing, right.
But they, whatever, I, I'm not going to defend Cenk aggressively here.
I'm not it, whatever, whatever the situation is, I'm positive.
It's far more complicated than he named his group after this militia.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but it is complicated.
But what I am going to say though, for sure, is that Sam Tripoli, uh, dropped
an unfortunate bomb at the end of his, uh, sentence.
Alex is saying that it was Muslims killing Christians and Sam butts in that
it was Khazarians, but that's another story that is definitely another story.
It's a strong indication that Sam Tripoli might be one of these guys who
thinks that most Jewish people aren't actually Jewish and actually are the
descendants of Khazarian Turks.
Oh, that's the same one.
Fuck me.
Yeah.
God, he's a fucking maybe, maybe unknowingly pushing for this conspiracy
theories, maybe, or he's a fucking British.
Well, it's possible.
Yeah.
It seems like the surrounding context leads to that conclusion because why
did that rebuttal come up when Alex said it was Muslims killing Christians?
It seems like Sam wanted to say actually it was the Jews, but hid behind a little
code that most people won't see for the anti-Semitic trash that it is.
And maybe he doesn't even realize when you're someone who believes every dumb
piece of nonsense you read online and you show up on the Alex Jones show and
make Eddie Bravo sounds super rational.
I don't have a lot of faith in the point that you're trying to make when you
bring up Khazarians.
It's a gigantic buzzword in the more anti-Semitic areas of conspiracy theory.
And this ill-informed douche hosts a show called Tin Foil Hat.
Yeah.
So I'm going to just go ahead and say, this is a, this is a red flag.
Yeah.
That's, that's a big one.
Yeah.
Every time we scratch a conspiracy theorist, you get somebody who hates the Jews.
But it might not be me.
No, I'm not even saying a mask tape.
Yeah.
It might just be a belief that you'd understand on a deeper level that, yeah, man.
All right, all right.
The new world order is run by Jews.
But they're not really Jews.
They're Ashkenazi Jews who are actually Turkish people.
The Khazarian Turks who invaded and they turned into Jews.
They converted to Judaism in order to take over the world.
And you get the birthright back that you saw lost.
Man, right.
That's, that's some fairyland thinking right there.
It makes me worried.
It makes me worried that he drops that in there.
But yeah, that guy, you can't really definitively say what he means because
he doesn't expand on it because it's another story, another story, but the way
that Alex doesn't respond and leaves it hanging makes me think that Alex is maybe
aware that like, uh-oh, if this dude talks more, he might.
I had David Duke on to push away from this situation.
Yeah, it's troubling.
So I don't know.
I guess the end conclusion to this is that Alex had Eddie and Sam Tripoli on.
And Alex is desperate for attention.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Just everything you see that is like, why is he doing that?
It's like, Oh, obviously, just like, Oh, he's doing this G video because he
wants to try and bait people into covering it and just doing this.
Let's take over the moon, the thing because he wants to sell a shirt.
Sad.
Yeah.
You look at the present day and it's so like, you jump back and forth from the
past to the present and you, in the past, he's terrible, but you move to the
present and like I said, nothing means anything.
Yeah.
You see why he's doing these things.
And all leads, all roads lead back to like, pay attention to me.
Well, he's, he's the character from Glenn, Gary, Glenn Ross.
He's a, what, uh, Lemons character.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Who steals the leads.
Yeah.
He's the sad old man realizing that he doesn't have it anymore.
And he, his desperation wreaks so bad that whatever it was that he was trying to
do, you just so turned off by the desperation.
Are you Alec Baldwin then?
Uh, me?
No, I'm, uh, I'm just an extra.
You know, I think I'm just an extra pretty sure there's a play.
There's a, there's got to be, uh, there's got to be somebody in the
background.
They're like six characters.
I'm a background artist.
Okay.
There might be like a bartender.
Yeah.
Exactly.
I'm the bartender.
I'll probably be in the bartender.
All right.
I don't need the sales.
I think most of it takes, oh, you could be the husband.
I'll be the husband.
Yeah.
I'm a say at home dog.
Most of it takes place in an office.
I think in a restaurant booth.
So I really sincerely think there might be, that I'm a waitress.
There might be six actors in that movie.
I'm one of the trees.
Okay.
Um, so yeah, I don't know, just desperate, uh, yeah, I mean, I think
it's a pretty good way to define it.
It's like he's passed his prime and he's trying to steal the Glenn
Gary leads in order to stay relevant.
Absolutely.
And in order for him to pull that scam off, he needs the media to pay
attention to this stuff.
And one of the things that I actually think is pretty heartening is that I
haven't seen people posting about this G video where he's a dragon.
Yeah.
I haven't seen people posting about like just overt racist Asian voice.
And that's good.
I think that's progress.
Yeah.
I wish we didn't talk about it.
Cause I think even that gives it more attention, but this context
doesn't really help promote him.
So I think it's okay on some level for us to discuss this, especially
within the context of like, this is just a desperate cry for it.
Look at me.
Yeah.
Look at the saddest man in the world.
That's what we're doing.
Yeah.
And to the same, uh, on the same token, I don't know, um, you know,
if this isn't going to grow or something, but like, I haven't seen
anybody covering him, trying to annex the moon.
So that's also heartening because he needs those outlets to cover those
things in order to spread the message further than he has the ability to.
So resisting that impulse seems to be what people are doing.
And I applaud them for it.
Um, but we'll see, we'll see what happens.
We'll be, uh, I don't know, I don't know what we're going to do for Monday.
I can't imagine.
Spending the time to listen to another episode with Eddie and Sam.
No, they've got great comedic timing together.
They're, they're, they're all kind of yes, and none of them are yelling
over each other, trying to get to the same bit at the same time.
It's good stuff.
You know, everybody's, uh, listening and, uh, responding appropriately in the moment.
They crushed all the segments, the first segment crushed the second segment off the
rest crushed.
So we'll see what happens.
But either way, we'll be back on Monday with a new episode for y'alls.
Indeed we will.
Sorry, uh, again, about this being a little delayed, but, uh, it happens.
Uh, but, uh, until Monday, we have a website, we do have a website even after
Monday.
Uh, yeah, we're not going to take the website down on Tuesday.
No, no, no, uh, it, but at the website that you could visit that we might take
down on Tuesday is knowledge fight.com.
That's right.
We're also on Twitter.
We are.
It's at knowledge underscore fight and at go to bed, Jordan.
Yup.
We're also on Facebook.
We are.
And if you want to listen to our show, you can go to iTunes, you could download,
you could leave a review, but let me tell you something.
That's not the best way to do it.
What you're going to want to do is take you and your family to a vacation in
Cabo, okay?
Cabo.
Okay.
You go about four feet into the ocean at high tide.
You're going to want to do it at low tide because it doesn't seem as far, but
high tide reach down directly underneath that there will be a seashell.
And let me tell you something that's going to have a little stick drive on it.
I was really hoping you were somehow going to weave in David Lee Roth.
Cabo Wabbo.
Is that David Lee Roth?
I don't think it is.
I don't know.
I think it's the other guy from Van Halen.
I think so.
I don't care.
Sammy Hagar.
Sammy Hagar.
Whoever has that tequila.
Love his pants, by the way.
I was hoping he would show up with a bottle of tequila that has the thumb drive in it,
but I respect the seashell.
No, it's a metaphysical, two bottles of tequila, actually.
Metaphysically.
Yes.
Um, so anyway, we'll be back.
But until then, I'm Neo.
I'm Leo.
I'm DZX Clark.
I am the Jesus lizard.
Andy in Kansas.
You're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
Well, Alex, I'm a first-time caller.
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
I love you.
