I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys saying we are the bad guys knowledge
fight.
Dan & George, knowledge fight.
Man, I need money.
Andy and Tansa.
Andy and Tansa.
Stop it.
Andy and Tansa.
Andy, Andy, Andy.
It's time to pray.
Andy and Tansa.
You're on the airplane trolling.
Hello Alex.
I'm the Mr. Sean Collin, I'm a huge fan.
I love your word.
Knowledge fight.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, knowledgefight.com.

I love you
Hey everybody welcome back to KnolageFighting. I'm Dan.
I'm Jordan. We're couple dudes like to sit around
worship at the altar of Selene and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
Oh indeed we are Dan. Jordan. Dan.
Jordan. I have a quick question for you.
Uh huh. What is it?
What's your bright spot today? I'd like to turn the tables on you.
Ooh. What's your bright spot?
I will tell you what my bright spot is Dan.
My bright spot is now normally
in this point in time
if I were to say the word tennis
who would you think I was talking about?
Well it can't be Rafa because you want me to think that it is.
Exactly. So it's got to be
Agassi.
Not quite. Sampers.
No. So, so. That Greek guy.
Two kids. Very close. Two kids.
Right? Carlos Alcaraz. World number one.
Is that the Greek guy?
At 19 years old. No. He's my new
Spanish Adonis. Okay.
I had 19 year old Rafa for the last 20 years.
And now you've got Alcatraz.
19 year old Alcatraz.
And he's playing Yannick Sinner.
Right? Who is another 21 year old kid.
Right? They just played
they are two of the best players in the game
and they just played one of the most incredible matches
that you see outside of like
a Rafa or Federer
or a Rafa and Djokovic kind of match.
It is, they were playing
incredible tennis. It was amazing
and it made me, it was like, oh
thank goodness. After this, you know
people have been yelling about the big three era
being like, oh, what are we going to do
after that? You know, all that shit.
We got cool shit coming up, man.
It was really, really fun to watch.
It is always a great feeling to know
that the next generation is going to be
going to have some hits.
I mean, it's been brutal.
You know, under Rafa
and Federer and Djokovic, that next generation
was so beaten down psychologically
of like, we're never going to win.
I feel like
there might, I don't know if this is
possible, but maybe this more
my mind goes is like, I was a basketball
fan around that time after
Jordan. Right. And so I, that
sort of evokes that feeling in me
of like, the
sort of the end of Jordan's career
and then the like new crop
of folks that were coming up. Sure.
You know, folks like maybe Carl Malone
and Charles Barkley had been beaten down
by we're never going to win it. Right.
Patrick Ewing was like, I'm not going to win it. Patrick Ewing
was not going to win it. No.
Like maybe, you know, maybe there's a little
I don't know. I'm just trying to, I'm trying to relate.
No, no, no. I understand. It's like
Kobe would never be able to flourish
if Jordan were still around. Kobe's
Kobe's whole thing
would have been eaten alive by Jordan
and only by Jordan leaving
was Kobe allowed to try and take over that mantle
of Jordan. Sure. You know, that kind of thing.
And then there was the Allen Iverson. Totally.
The Stefan Marbury. Sure.
The Keith Van Horn. But it wasn't until LeBron
that we got new Jordan.
The Oster Tag.
And then it wasn't until
that we got a perfect score country.
Bryant Reeves and then the next, the next
the next person coming is this guy
named Wimbayana.
He is seven foot three.
He can shoot as well as Steph Curry.
He is smooth.
Like a seven foot three guy
is supposed to lumber. You know, he
he is like a lizard. He's like a snake.
He just going wherever he wants.
Seven foot. He is going to be
the like everybody in the planet is like,
Oh, I don't know what basketball is going to look like
after this guy because he's just going to lay waste
to this world. Wow. Yeah. Good times.
Yeah. Good times laying waste to the world.
What's your bright spot, buddy? Man, I'm conflicted.
We're recording this on the same day
that we recorded Monday's episode.
So coming up with another bright spot.
I thought about it before
we came today. I was like, I had to get my second
one in the chamber. I can't say
what happened at WrestleMania week
night one because it hasn't happened yet. It's still
this evening. That's true. I can't
pretend that it's day two because that's
tomorrow. But I will
say that your bright spot almost
certainly would have been WrestleMania's
action. If history
is prelude, it wouldn't be
because I'm disappointed. Oh, okay.
So your bright spot is this. Once again,
you get to live in the
joy of anticipation. I don't have buyers
remorse. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah.
Your bright spot is it said the possibilities
are still endless. Yeah, you know, there is something
to that. Anything can happen
anything. They all could have a great time out
there. He could be hit by a
meteor. You don't know.
Logan Paul is fighting
Seth Rollins. I'm not saying
it would be a bright spot, but it would be notable
if all of a sudden like, oh,
the greatest tragedy is the first
night of WrestleMania was hit by a small
meteor. It would, I mean,
it would move the needle would move the
needle. We'll be talking about it.
Um,
but would it be a work
would it be a case fave meteor?
That's the question. It was
it was Vince behind it the whole time. Right.
He was sick of having to get he got kicked
out. Now he's back after the
meteor meteor power. Time that he was away.
He was on the top of the mountain.
Yeah, he's got he's fighting against
people with blonde hair. Yeah, I'm all into
it. Um, so anyway,
this is actually kind of appropriate to be my
hold over bright spot. Sure. Because
wrestling might come up on this episode. Okay.
In a very depressing way. Oh, no.
So, um, today, Jordan, we're going to be
in the past. Yes. Because, like,
we mentioned, we're recording this in advance
for your vacation. So,
you know, gotta wait. What can you do? Really?
I mean, we could talk about a project, Kamala
and some other thing or we can stick
around in the past. I'm having fun swimming in
these past. I am loving and I'm loving
the past and I'm also loving the
like,
new found lack of dex destination
about the past. I'm feeling less
like we're looking for an investigation.
We're not doing that. I appreciate you saying
that. Yeah, I think I enjoy it too because
we can take what comes and we can get
little mini investigations along
the way. Like, what does he do
about Saddam? Unfortunately, that
backfired on me hard with the teen
scream thing. True. True. But
that was really just be panicking and
trying to fight something for our live show.
There is a little bit about that. So, um,
I don't know if we have any progress
on any real fronts. Yeah, that sounds about right.
But there is one thread actually
that continues in the last clip of this
episode that I laughed my ass off
when it happened. Okay. So, I'm very excited
to get to that. But first, before we get
into anything, let's take a little moment to say hello
to some new, uh, wands. Oh, that's a great idea.
So, first, uh,
I think it's Ian.
Uh, it's spelled E-O-I-N
from Scotland. Uh, I always
want to say Eoin. Yeah, Ian. It's Ian. Yeah.
That O is out of place.
Anyway, you're now a policy one. Thank you.
I'm a policy one. Thank you very much.
I feel like people are fucking with me here, too,
because I just looked at the next one. Uh,
thank you so much, President of the Finnish Knowledge Club,
uh, uh, Knowledge Fight
fan club of Espoo. The city is
pronounced like Espo, not Espoo.
Thank you so much. You're now a policy one.
I'm a policy one. I get it.
Thank you very much. I don't know how to pronounce things.
Uh, next,
Jack Durden, thank you so much. You're now a policy one.
I'm a policy one. Thank you very much.
And, uh, my wife's tennis
partner has Uncle Howdy Elbow.
Thank you so much. You're now a policy one.
I'm a policy one. Thank you very much.
I'm worried about that elbow. Hmm. Uh, we got a technocrat
in the mix, Jordan. Also, so, uh, thank you so much
to Chris and Cheyenne would like to announce
the birth of Copeland H
on December 3rd, 2021,
Blackjack. Thank you so much.
You are now a technocrat. I'm a policy one.
Four stars. Go home, give them out,
and tell them you're brilliant. Someone, someone
Sotomite sent me a bucket of poop. Daddy
Shark.
Jar Jar Binks has a
Caribbean black
action. He's a loser little
little kitty baby.
I don't want to hate black people. I renounce
Jesus Christ. That's a palindrome
date. Yeah, I think I'm going to go
out on a limb and I'm going to say they did that one
on purpose. I think that was a joke. Yeah.
But I think it might have been a real baby. I think
it may have been a real baby. Yeah. The, the
jury's out on that still. Yeah. I don't have
any proof. Yeah. Yeah. So, um,
we start here. Um, this is going to be
the first one. We're going to be covering the
period of January 27th, 28th and 29th.
We actually don't have anything of the 28th.
The audio is jacked. So, I
make sense. Yeah. So, we jump to the,
from the 27th to the 29th.
And here's where Alex starts out on the
the 27th. It's talking a little bit about
bird flu, which we know is a bio
weapon. Yeah.
In the present day. Yeah. But what was it
in 2004? Let's find out. But the bird
flu outbreak is deadliest on record.
And why suddenly do we see
all this showing up and why are they
fear mongering?
It's obviously serious if it's killing
people and it's a deadly strain of flu.
But the reason
we see the flu is always coming out of
Asia is because
they'll have tens of thousands of pigs
in pens
on these giant hog farms
right next to thousands and thousands of
geese and chickens.
And, uh, they've, they've done the studies.
They've known for 50 years it's because the
manure of the different species
combined together
and becomes like giant petri dishes
where different types
of flu viruses mutate and merge
together.
And that's where it's all coming from. Oh, so it's
agricultural stuff? It's a naturally
kind of occurring and
hmm.
Weird. Weird.
Weird. That wasn't a bio weapon back then.
So there's
this trend we've been tracking
here in the past and that is that
Alex's show cuts off
constantly. Yeah. Like almost every
episode that he gets
the feed to
suddenly there's music. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So here, this is
the third time it happens within
the half hour of the first half hour of the show.
Oh, shit.
So we'll get into that. Also what some of the new
leaked news memos are saying
about the government staging
actors playing the part of troops
saying how much they love the war on
television.
Howard Dean
called for a microchip ID card.
Thank God for the
ready. Yeah, that's a better
show now. I thought the clip that I had there
actually had him coming
back in because he's just kind of like
frustrated but also like
you know, what are you going to do?
Not that big a deal. He's
really varying between whether
or not it's a conspiracy or whether it's
a very obvious
low rent operation. Right. Technical
difficulty. What are we going to do with this one?
Yeah, I mean, you can't really be mad
after it happens
this many times this often. You can't even
be really mad anymore. No, you know, you can
only really be mad if it happens once every
month or something and you're like, this
is because somebody fucked up. But if it's
if it's happening all the time
and you haven't been able to catch
the saboteur yet, that is
also why you can't really have it be a conspiracy
because it implies a real lack of
effectualness on your part. Yeah, you should
really be looking for that saboteur. Yeah,
especially if it's three times in the first
half hour of the show. So Alex
decides let's go fucking low stakes
tech's not working today. I'm going to
talk to my gold guy. All right.
So he has a guy from Midas Resources
on to sell gold and this dude
is intense.
He is much more so
than Ted Anderson and even Bob Chapman.
He is just
this guy swinging.
I can sell them to you in groups of
10 or 20
mixed up like that. Now, first off
first thing some guys say, jeez
I can't afford 10 or 20. You know what
don't say I can't
afford 10 or 20. Call
up your broker here at the Alex line
888-294-6187
888-294-6187
Let him know what you need to protect.
You need to protect your loved ones.
You need to protect yourself. You don't need
to protect cable television.
You don't need to protect anything else.
This is life and death
people. This is absolutely life
and death. Give us a call today
on the Alex line
888-294-6187
Call the Alex line and buy our gold or else
your family is going to die. That guy
has taken a lot of the same sales
classes I took at that time here.
No, a little bit later.
The delivery is soft and low
but what he's saying is
a little bit too much.
I thought this was interesting. This was a guy
that I don't know of or I don't really know
who he is even really.
He's just a Midas resource salesman
but he said something that I thought was
slightly interesting.
I've been doing this for 26 years Alex.
I'm as happy right now with
the gold as going as I was in 1979
because it looks like we're
off to the races here.
Give us a call today on the Alex line
888-294-6187
Tell them you're a loyal Alex Jones
listener. Tell them you want the Alex Jones
special.
As a bonus
anybody that buys 10 coins
I'll give a free
subscription to
the international forecaster.
All right well Jack thanks for coming on the show.
The international forecaster is
Bob Chapman's newsletter.
Bob Chapman is already
financially entwined with Midas
resources as far back as 2004
which is a little bit earlier than I would
have put it because I don't see Bob coming
on once a week at this period
like he does
in the 2008-2009 time frame
even a little bit after that.
Bob is a much more regular presence.
Maybe
he had to work his way into the trust
trusted
you can go on the radio level
of Midas resources situation
Could be a
Bob and Ted are tight
but Alex maybe doesn't know Bob as well
It could very much be
or just like Ted hires
this dude to run a newsletter
and that's it.
No that's not what it is.
Bob had his newsletter
and they
were getting gold
Bob was also in the gold business
way back to his roots
in South Africa and Rhodesia
so he had
all that history so he was already
in this gold market
so he had his newsletter
and then
the two of them just kind of
entwined their interests
so if you buy gold
you get a free subscription to the international forecaster
then the international forecaster
always directing people to Midas resources
to buy gold so it's kind of a
it's an uroboros of bullshit
but I wouldn't characterize it as
like he's on the payroll
to do a newsletter
there's still a little bit more
I think there's more autonomy probably to Bob's newsletter
than Alex has on his own show
really
Bob's newsletter from a lot of the stuff that I've read
is flagrantly racist
beyond even what Alex
throws out
and stuff is just like holy shit
yeah yeah it's great
when even if you're looking for investment advice
they're like well we gotta be racist
can't not be
yeah well there's investment advice
only fills up so many pages
yeah you're right
it's really kind of a yes or no investment
yes no
so Alex takes some calls
and this one caller is a little bit
he's got a bad idea
hi Alex
I got a couple things that I wanted to let you know
one was
you've gone over this thing a bunch of times on the Silverstein
video and that
but last Thursday I decided to
send a link and email
to about 25 different friends on the
the page that you had set up on
prismplanet.com with all the different videos
and all different information
and I sent out the 25 emails
about 11 o'clock Thursday night
and then flighty decided to check it because I put in the email
I wanted comments back from me and my friends on what they thought about this
and Friday night
I go to go into my email check it
and I type in my password
and of course it says
invalid password or username
so I tried this three times got the same
message
and I decided to click on the help button and I did that
and I'm going to get a page that comes up
so this Yahoo account has been deactivated
so I found it to be quite interesting
and I went to go to my Yahoo messenger
to see if I could get on that and talk to some people
and I plugged in my
username and password
and I get a little message that comes up to the system
your account has been locked for security reasons
so
that's never happened before when I've emailed anything out
and I've got this happening now
so that was kind of interesting that that happened within a 24 hour period of time
they're very upset
about the Silverstein story
I can see that
Yahoo is?
well yeah I mean my show would probably go off the air
about 10 seconds once a year
right
now it's continually happening
we've had the phone company out here
eight times and looked at it we can connect
when we're not live nothing happens
then when we're live this happens I have to go to a backup studio
I'm considering that now
so now it's a conspiracy
so I love the image of these globalists
that Alex thinks he's fighting
so like they need to do things out in the open
because of cosmic laws
because they have to let you know what they're doing
interdimensional treaties
predictive programming, glass or magic
they have to have Silverstein come out on PBS
and say that they blew up the building
they have to do it because they have to give you a choice
or whatever
but as soon as people start talking about it
they're all of a sudden terrified
and want to shut it down by all means
possible to the extent that they would sabotage
Alex's studio and close the Yahoo account
of some weirdo who probably has
25 friends that he has
contacts with on email
this is silly
this is dumb
I got your password
or
instead of clicking the reset your password
sign you were like what if I try my password
elsewhere
it could be also just a coincidence
could be, you know
I mean it is a coincidence
it is a coincidence
it is not a conspiracy even a little bit
I see
scant evidence
and by that I mean none
so the New York Observer had a story
I think about a year prior to this
about skull and bones
and so Alex digs this back up
now two years ago
the New York Observer was able to
perch atop a chimney
of a
building
across the street from the tomb
in New Haven
Connecticut
where
Yale is based
and they were able to catch
one of the rituals they do
that had been reported and leaked by
skull and bones members of the past
and that is ritual throat
splitting of women and then offering
their bodies up to Satan and then
one of the skull
and bones members walks out in a
outfit
dressed up like the devil and says
I'm Satan you can now enter
the underworld
your sacrifices served me well
good time
most reported on
at the New York Times reported on it
Fox, CNN, Peter Jennings
I've got him on video playing it
saying oh they're just having fun
what's the big deal
I think I would know more
about even the most
secretive college
fraternity style thing
if they were regularly throat splitting
I feel like regular throat splitting
is the point at which we would all know a lot more about it
and the other thing that's really important
to understand is the tomb is a building
and there's a courtyard in the middle of it
so it's not like an actual
tomb tomb
it's not a catacombs underneath Paris
filled with skulls
and so there's a courtyard in the middle of it
and this person was able to get video
by standing on another rooftop and looking into the courtyard
and so if they were slitting throats
in the courtyard
first of all dumb
and very obvious
would be observed by a bunch of people
also
might be finding a lot of bodies
yeah, you know I understand that the rich
we believe that they are
capable of so much more
than we are which is true
but there are limits and I think
once you get to 15 or
20 throat slits
or the slit throats
over the decades of skull bones
but we also know about Alex's
difficulty
in differentiating between
like real and fake
and so he'll talk about how they
actually burned a child
at Bohemian Grove and stuff when there's an
effigy or something
and so like a mock throat slitting
or something he would report is them actually slitting
a throat so who knows what even
fucking means so in 2001
a New York Observer reporter named
Ron Rosenbaum published an article
about how he and a team had spied
on what they decided must have been a skull and bones
initiation ceremony from the roof
of a neighboring building
from which they could spy into the courtyard
this is kind of raises
an important question like if it's this
easy to spy on the skull and bones rituals
why hasn't anyone done it previously
it's not like the neighboring building
was just built if the bones
men were really as concerned about ultimate
privacy as they appear to be you'd think that they
would have the foresight to know that their courtyard was plainly visible
from an easy to
access rooftop it's almost like
they don't actually need total privacy
but the allure of mystery is the only thing
that gives them any kind of meaning in society
so you play into it yeah
I watch this video and it's dumb
it's really hard to make out a lot
of what's going on because it's at night and it was
shot on the quality of cameras that were around in
2001 so you kind of have to fill
in a lot of the gaps yourself which is exactly
what Alex is doing yeah from what I can
tell they definitely make some dude kiss
a skull and there's a lot of yelling
I got that much from all right so they're the
proud boys no serials
now former skull and bones
members went on the record and said that this
what was on the video was nothing like
what they went through in their initiation rights
and it seems unlikely that a group
that's so invested in tradition and their own
history would just up and change the initiation
ceremony into this screaming nonsense
having watched the video and poked around a little bit
for contextual information
I'm inclined to believe the perspective that
the former bones men Steve
McDonald told Yale Daily News
when he speculated that the whole thing might
have been staged or that there's like a prank
going on another compelling point
he makes is that with few exceptions these
kinds of rights are carried out inside
the headquarters not in the courtyard
of course yeah
I think this is all really silly and
ultimately it's a situation where the only people
profiting from these kinds of stories are the
conspiracy theorists and the elites
yeah the conspiracy theorists get to
sensationalize shit in order to craft more
interesting narratives to capture their audience
in bullshit worldviews the elites
particularly the Ivy League folk
who are part of these secret societies in college
they get to enjoy the mystique that
this attention gives them and how the absurdity
of it all places them into somewhat elevated
position above the masses oh you've
gone through these secret rituals and rights
they have secrets and maybe even supernatural
powers that you don't have access to because
you're not one of the elites yeah it's all just
a dumb game might as well be
like reality TV quite frankly
yeah I mean why not
if somebody if people want to give you
a self-fulfilling prophecy of like oh look
at how cool and secret these people are
why not be cool and secret
yeah yeah lean into it
throw in the yeah that'd be awesome
I'm not gonna believe you if you debunk it anyway
who cares you're a fucking fraternity
yeah so Alex
talks a bit about the connections
between the bin Laden family
and the Bush family which is fair enough
there are connections there yeah
Alex's version of the story a little silly
but then he gets side tracked
below is the time one
that details the relationship between
the bin Laden and the Bush's families
that culminates in the tragic events
of September 11th
oh I mean we've got FBI agent Robert Wright
standing up the National Press Club
crying saying here's the letter
where if I tell you what I know I'll be
arrested that's W-199
I folks that
that's an order
arising out of that order
people still deny W-199
I when it's in the associated
press and the BBC invented
Bush said don't stop the bin Laden's
don't stop Al Qaeda
and again people just say well
I'm not gonna talk about that it's not true
okay it's not true
so this document W-199
I is a really useful and mysterious
thing in Alex's hands it's a big part
of some of these earlier 9-11 conspiracy
theories that have been forgotten to time
this isn't one that a lot of people
trot out anymore and Alex probably doesn't even
remember I propose we shorten it to Winnie
fine
at times it's an FBI thing at times
it's a national security document but it's always
meant to emanate from the president
the idea is that Winnie is
a presidential directive saying that all
investigations needed to leave
the bin Laden's alone the implication
being that the Bush's family ties
to the bin Laden's made them negligent
or that Bush was trying to make sure that
no one uncovered the 9-11 plot before it
could be carried out right Alex
ever the storyteller would exaggerate this
in his book Descented to Tyranny saying
that it told quote FBI agents
as well as defense intelligence officers
that if they tried to stop Al Qaeda
they would be arrested under national security
implications basically
this is a document that's used to explain why
the plot wasn't uncovered within the conspiracy
narrative world view right but it's also
bullshit the document itself
is from 1996 so Bush
has nothing to do with it and there's no reason
to even assume that Clinton did either
it's a narrow FBI document
reflecting a closing of an investigation
into one of Osama's family members
Abdullah bin Laden who was under scrutiny
because of his association with the
World Assembly of Muslim youth
the document itself doesn't even reflect an order
to not investigate Abdullah
it just it says that the case
that was involved it opened
in February 1996 and it closed that September
so they were saying no whammies
right no Winnie's no whammies
the implication that this
relates to an order to not investigate
bin Laden family members or folks
from Saudi Arabia comes from
Greg Palast's coverage of the
document where he claimed that
unnamed sources told
him that some unspecified cases were
quote shut down for political reasons
but nothing further is established
and it's just you know you take
that grain of something
that is un
sourced specifically from Greg Palast
and Alex will exaggerate from there into
it being like all terrorism
if you try and stop it will arrest you
bullshit yeah so if I understand
correctly the evidence is
un sourced
unspecified sources
unnamed sources giving
a third hand account
of what may have happened that they
don't know and
what is an actual like FBI
document yeah that is about
the closing of an investigation into one of bin Laden's family
I mean if I remember
am I wrong weren't the bin Laden's
richest fuck like they were connected
to all kinds of rich people
and shit yeah construction
enterprises Saudi
Arabia and what they had all kinds of connections
yeah and look
it's um I don't know
some people might think it's naive to think that
oh it just be because
you're in the family doesn't mean
that you have connection with the person
who ends up being a terrorist but maybe they don't
you know maybe it's not involved at all
yeah I mean there's a whole
side of my family I haven't spoken to in 20 years
they could have been January 6th
they could have been in jail they fucking could have
I didn't even think about that
the relationship between the Bush family
and the bin Laden family is interesting
but what is not is
this W1999
in my estimation it's a complete zero
but for Alex it's a cool specific sounding
document number so that explains
everything that he needs it to explain
just trot it out just like he has his favorite
subsection just throw these things out
to blind people with the fake
specificity yeah and it is
kind of fun to say W1999
whenever you're talking about a conspiracy
yeah yeah I don't
I don't begrudge that no no no
that's that's pretty solid I would enjoy talking
about a document with a name like that as though
I had an idea of what it said yeah
yeah you should start
okay say
it has something to do with tennis
so Alex is
the fake racist statistic to throw out
sure sure I want to go over criminal aliens
abound
in the US from the washington times how they are
the crime wave
then world met daily chiefs of police
border security a sham
organization claims lacks federal
policies causing murder of cops
oh I just happen to have the numbers here from the
washington times federal numbers
did you know that over a
third of the cops being killed or been killed
by illegal aliens
cops I don't care what your superiors tell you
you need to get these criminals off the streets
damn that statistic
that one third of the cops
who are killed or killed by undocumented immigrants
is not in that washington times article
that Alex is covering he's made up that
stat the only time murder is even
mentioned in that article it's in this sense
quote according to figures
from 2002 from the former
INS and from ICE more than
375,000 known illegal
aliens have been ordered deported
but have disappeared pending immigration hearings
washington area sniper
lee boyd malva was one such alien
right so he murdered I remember
that yeah I remember that part it's a long
long walk from what the article says
to what Alex is pitching the website
officer down memorial keeps track
and honors the
memory of law enforcement officers who have
died in the line of duty sure in 2002
there were 161 deaths
of police on duty
one third of that would have to
be about like
54 of them were killed by
undocumented immigrants that's wild
that's a lot only 57
total police in the US died from gunfire
that year and it seems difficult to imagine
essentially all of them were immigrants
doing the shooting sure sure so the
so what we're saying is that
obviously illegal immigrants are not
doing all of the shootings
they choose poison
right so they are they've got like little
bits of cyanide
that would have been reflected
they put it in coffee
there's no poisoning stats all right
a number of car accidents
a number of
medical things other accidents great
you know it is unfortunate but it's you know
like when you think about
it's not always a hostile murder
yeah it is it is it is unfortunate
you know I decided that I was going to go
through the shootings just to see
get a sense of like what the circumstances
that surrounded them were yeah and some
of them were you know like a cop was trying
to stop a robbery at a store
sure like that's real fucking sad
yeah but I didn't find any
that were done by undocumented immigrants
I didn't go through all of them because I got
bummed out at a certain point well yeah
how could you not I can't keep going
all these people dying for property yeah
but I did find though one case that was
of Andrew Mikkel that year
who murdered officer Daniel
I'm sorry David Mobelio in
cold blood while Mobelio
was filling up his tank at a gas station
damn so this guy Andrew Mikkel
just shot this cop just walked up
Blamo and then walked back Mikkel
left a Gadsden flag next to
the murdered man I was when you said
his politics when you said Mikkel I kind
of thought Mikkel would end up being
caught about a week later after he posted
online quote hello everyone my name is
Andy I killed a police officer in red
bluff California in a motion
to bring attention to
and halt the police state tactics
that have come to be used throughout our country
sounds weirdly familiar yeah
Alex has made up a terrifying statistic
meant to direct the audience's fear
hate and distrust towards a vulnerable population
that Alex doesn't like and which he uses
as a political scapegoat further
he's claiming that some source
backs up his claims when in fact he's just
reading headlines in a nutty ass right wing
publication for articles he hasn't even
skimmed this is what he does this is what he's
done yeah I just
you know I don't think that an argument
should last 20 years
you know like if your argument is all
the borders are collapsing and that's where the country
you know all that stuff like
that can't last for 20 years yeah
it just can't no we can't have
an argument last that long we need an argument
to last at most two or three years max
the only kind of argument you can really have
that last 20 years is like
free will or not yeah yeah
these these endless
and honestly that argument shouldn't
even be had that argument should take a half
hour is it real or not
who cares what if I have the free will to
make it last 45 minutes yeah what if you don't
who cares all right
so I got excited because I thought Alex
was about to do a movie review here because he brings up
supersize me oh but then it ends
in a real disappointment
let me just read part of this New York Post article
because this dovetails but what I'm about to do
New York Post
yesterday last February
Morgan Spurlock decided to become
a gastronomical
guinea pig
his mission to eat three meals a day
for 30 days at McDonald's and document
the impact on his health
scores of cheeseburgers, hundreds of fries
and dozens of chocolate shakes later
the formerly strapping 6-2
New Yorker who started out a healthy
185 pounds had packed on
25 pounds but his
supersize shape was the least of his problems
in a few days at the beginning the drive-thru
diet Spurlock 33 was vomiting
out the window his car this was all documented
for documentary and doctors
examined him were shocked at how rapidly
Spurlock's entire body deteriorated
it was really crazy my body basically fell apart
over the course of 30 days Spurlock told
the Post his liver became toxic
his cholesterol shot up from 165 to
230 his libido flagged
and he suffered headaches and depression
Spurlock charted his journey
from the fit to flab
the tongue-in-cheek documentary
which he's released at the Sundance Film Festival
the hopes of getting distribution deal
will cover more of it in the next hour
but that dovetails
into the next five minutes with
Debbie Morrow my good friend
and new millennium concepts
not just the food Debbie
which has been keeping me going all these years
I mean I get sick maybe once a year
is that I don't drink tap water
just water sponsor
I thought I was going to get a nice
review of supersize meat
some weird thoughts that Alex has
because he probably couldn't like Morgan
Spurlock but at the same time he doesn't
like McDonald's and that kind of stuff
so I feel like he'd be trapped kind of
for his perspective then it turns out
just to be a way to pivot into
like a sponsored content
fucking nonsense
see look at this guy
eating McDonald's hurting his body
I don't drink tap water
that's because I got good water filters
what? okay
I was making myself laugh
quite a bit because I was like
this lady has no chops
she doesn't have any showmanship
she doesn't belong on air
but then I was like why am I being so mean
she's like the secretary there
there's no reason for her to be on air
that's her choice
they're just doing that I don't know
she seems like a nice lady
she probably didn't like break into her boss's office
kicking the door open like I'm doing the radio
spot today boss
yeah but it was disappointing
yeah
the 2004 election is happening
sure it's gearing up
how did it go? well at this point
we are now in a position where I think a lot of people
understand that Kerry is probably going to be
the nomination for the Democrats
and Bush
of course incumbent so you kind of know where this is going
sure it's going to be a skull and bones affair
so we're going to get a lot of skull and bones talk
for the next months I'm sure
sounds about right but here is a
caller asking Alex
about the election and this is
my guy this is not the caller
this is when Alex was like alright man
yeah you have a brand
Jay in Colorado go ahead Jay
hi Alex
I wanted to ask you about the
November election
really like who are you going to vote for
let's be honest there is
there is no let's be honest
there is no presidential election
and I can
prove that from multiple directions
everybody you're given a choice
of is controlled it's the oldest scam
in the book I control the choices
in a certain paradigm
that I give you a choice from within that controlled
outcome you understand sure
so it doesn't matter if it's Howard Dean
or John Kerry he's skull
and bones or George W. Bush
or Bill Clinton or Al Gore or the Easter Bunny
it's all the same agenda
yep so that's where he
should be yeah that's where you live man
that's the idea
yeah that's where
things are
I mean that is but that's the job opportunity
he took you know like when
you talk about where his whole
thing came from like the reason that he
became so popular is because there is a
thirst for a voice to be
screaming this shit at people
because they've watched the transition
from Clinton to Bush the transition
from Bush to Clinton and they've been like
this is the same fucking shit
nothing different happened nobody
had any new ideas everybody
was like hey NAFTA's a great idea
and then you know like it was it was nuts
of course they needed somebody to be like look at
all of these assholes
get rid of all of them
yeah and I think that Alex can appeal to people on that level
and he speaks to people that he
probably shouldn't speak to
because of this like
electoralism is a dead end any choice you have
isn't a choice it's been made for you in advance
that's what he should be he shouldn't be
doing this bullshit
now where he's talking about DeSantis
yeah that's awful get out of here man
he should be like there's no difference between Trump
and DeSantis he ruined that though
by his whole 2016
affair like it's he can't go back
it's just brutal he can't go back and be like that was
the one election that mattered and that's why I acted
that way it does get real sad after
that yeah what you can do yeah
that was the one election that mattered and it turned
out it didn't matter either yeah yeah
that's brutal so like I said 28th
we're just gonna skip over and we jump in here
on the 29th
and I hear a little bird calling me
alright
big show lined up for you today
you know back in early
2002
there's a lot of people in the Bush administration
that have second homes in Austin
and
I got it directly from someone
let's just say very close to the administration
that
bin Laden died naturally
of kidney failure
when
in early 2002
oh
I was hoping for before not 11
bin Laden that was literally on
ice to be rolled out right before
the election this is Steve
yeah this is 100% Steve
that's a big swing that's a Steve swing I
don't know about the part about second homes
in Texas but Alex's first
interview with Steve was in April
2002 so
that is in the time frame that he's
talking about yep and
Steve was almost certainly pretending to be close
to the Bush administration why not he's
he was involved with the Bush HW
HW Bush so I wouldn't
he's close to every president I was gonna say
yeah he's claimed to be close
to literally everything
yes he is the global spider
at the at the traveling along
the web depending on where the strings
move I hate to feel like I'm one of these
like I don't know
I've never seen the movie the number 23
sure Jim Carrey movie where he's
the number 23 everywhere I hate to be
like that and see Steve everywhere sure
but I see Steve this is Steve
yeah there might as well be a cardboard cut
out of Steve that Alex has his face in
and it makes me hope he's around the corner
somewhere he's got to be there bring
Steve I know that's the only investigation
now that really matters where's the
Cheney it's not really an investigation
even it's a hope yeah yeah
yeah obviously it's not an investigation
we already know where his first interview was
right and guess what April 24th
2002 my birthday
happy birthday here's Steve
so yeah bin Laden long dead
all right
US forces going after
bin Laden
sources planned operation into
Pakistan seeks to destroy al Qaeda
now
I was told
by someone let's just say very close
inside
the administration somebody's been on
Air Force One and heard the giggling
jokes about it
that bin Laden is
dead died of kidney failure
and his family gets all the big base
contracts and satellite contracts and weapons
contracts for the US military over there
and
they're on the car law group and their payment
for having their son by the part of the bad
guy he was being CIA
since the mid 70s at least his code name
Tim Osmond that's publicly admitted
publicly admitted publicly admitted did you know
that no they've been the bin Laden's
name is Tim Osmond no one has admitted that
to me I haven't heard Alex admit that
yeah that was weird yeah that's a strange
thing yeah that one's new
so the conspiracy theory that bin Laden was
actually a CIA agent named Tim Osmond
traces back to a 2001
article posted in an outlet called the
laissez faire city times
this is a convoluted and bizarre
story so I'm gonna do my best just to lay
it out as plainly as possible okay this
has to do with Ted Gunderson the FBI
agent turned conspiracy lunatic who is
part of the McMartin preschool hysteria
and a major driver of the satanic panic
in the 90s not enough
people no they're all over the place
everyone keep popping up in 1986
he claims that he and this guy
named I'm gonna stumble with
his last name but it's a Michael Recony
scutio
Rico no
scuto
that's what I'm gonna go with that sounds good
he claims that him and this guy
Michael who would go who end up going
to jail for 20 years on a methamphetamine
production and trafficking charge just five years
later sure so the two of them met with
representatives of the Mujahideen
at a Hilton hotel in Sherman Oaks, California
okay okay I'm
understanding that right now
someone's
resume went from meeting with the
Mujahideen
to a meth
producer and his resume is even wilder
than you can imagine see that's kind of what
we're talking about
well there's no straight line between those two
no so here this Michael guy
he also dabbled in arms dealings
see there we go so that's why he was there
because of his weapons stuff for the Mujahideen
sure but from the article I have no idea what
Gundersen was doing there my suspicion is
there isn't a good explanation for why he was
there because it's all made up yeah
apparently the two Mujahideen reps
were a white guy named Ralph Alberg
and Tim Osman who is secretly Osama bin Laden
okay they were over here just hanging out touring
there's also a side plot about how this Michael guy
had figured out how to defy physics and create
really tiny nukes we have
we that that was in there yeah really tiny
nukes okay meanwhile a shady company
called bio rad corporation
had quote taken over hercules california
and were developing race specific
bio weapons that's not very rad at all
it's honestly a whole lot yeah
I'm not sure I'm gonna sign off on Alex's
assessment that this has been proven or admitted
I don't know I mean
if there were really tiny nukes
that would be a game changer
that would be a game changer so small
imagine how many tiny
little nuclear explosions we'd have all the
I mean I would use those instead of a smoke bomb
the way they put it in the article it was
that they made suitcase nukes
irrelevant
okay all right yeah
I don't think this is proven or admitted
I'm gonna say at best there's
a really sus story that claims
this thing titled by people who have taught
me by the way of their actions to not
trust the things they say yeah
so I don't think this is yeah
I mean so okay
how does he get to meth producer
I want to I want to know where meth lab
jumps in here here's what's interesting
about this yeah he ends up doing quite a bit
of time but he claims that this lab
that he had on his property was actually
about him like
mining for platinum or something see
that's where yeah that makes sense
to me yeah but you remember there's
that that episode about
the guy who made a sluice yeah
no I mean that it was all about
that that was true
I mean that's maybe that's my problem
maybe I'm going the wrong direction
there is a straight line from meth producer
to lying about having been
in a room with Ted Gunderson and the
Mujahideen and creating really
tiny news yes that is a straight
line yeah I had it backwards
I'm chicken and egging this in the wrong direction
it's possible you are yeah yeah
so I told you wrestling would come up
and here's where it does okay Alex isn't
a mood he's not feeling great
he's bummed out he's pissed off that
everyone's so dumb yeah
they're so dumb that they think wrestling
is real and Alex needs to complain
about this for quite a while hopefully
I mean WWF wrestling
and to show the mind control
every time I say WWF
wrestling is fake I get threatening
emails I've even gotten calls
going how dare you say it's not real
oh yes it's real
uh
I've been watching since
the Von Erics were done
and that's real
it's all real
and there was
outrage when Rowdy Piper a few
months ago said it's all fake and
went public as if we needed someone
to go public
and you're going what are you talking about
professional wrestling well professional
wrestling is staged
they train for hours
every week
for the
production the show
the play
that they're going to put on
alright I mean in the real world if you hit
somebody 50 times in the face and
drop them on their head their their neck
breaks believe me folks I punch
somebody once and they've been in a coma for
three weeks okay
you know I'm not saying I'm a tough guy
that's why I will not get in fights
but you know
the last two fights
I got in
I punch somebody a couple
times and they'd
be in the hospital on a breathing apparatus
for a few weeks
these giant steroid
280 pound people
pounding them in the face over and over again
body slamming their head slamming
them from the ropes and you idiots
and I'm not talking to my listeners but the few out there
that don't understand you're the same folks that think
you're a conservative
you will threaten me and send me emails going
it's real it's real
it's real
oh yeah folks
I've been in a 30 second fight and ended up having my
leg broken before
I mean it's
the problem with America is most of you never been in a real
fight either we just got a domesticated
jellyfish population
Alex is exposing the business
is that a problem
so the whole idea behind this
is essentially him saying that
like the political
like the election is
staged you know it's like wrestling
two people pretending to fight but they're not actually
you know fighting each other it's choreographed
and what have you
but he gets lost in this insulting
a fraction of his audience
that thinks wrestling is real and it
goes on for quite a while
he really seems to be
upset about his audience being dumb
on this episode
yeah I mean and it's like
he seems very impressed with himself
for being able to see through
yeah I mean
I'm not
listen I don't remember
the era where people did argue about
whether or not it was real or quote unquote fake
you know I don't remember that time period
right I don't think we were alive
really for the heyday
and for the genuine feeling
behind it you know like
when I was growing up the is it real
or fake thing was like
not is the
staging real or fake because
obviously it's fake
you can't do some of those things
you can't do some of those things right
but the question was like
is the pain and is the hitting real
and that kind of stuff or were they doing
this this choreography you know
that was what I remember growing up
I think for me as a child
it was one of my earliest
awareness of wrestling
because my parents wouldn't let me watch it so
it came into my life through a friend
who watched it and it was around the time
of the Attitude Era
Monday Night Wars yeah Goldberg
and yeah so there was
there was an added element of weirdness
to kayfabe at that point
because there was a like
the whole thing with the
NWO with Hulk Hogan
and Scott Hall and Kevin Nash
and Scott Hall showed up in WCW
and they pretended that they
were invading from the WWF
right and so there was this weird
thing of like they seem to be
causing a lot of trouble
you know like and I was
eleven or twelve sure sure yeah yeah
that's the point yeah that's what wrestling is for
so the kayfabe of the like storyline
and stuff was was fairly
confusing on that aspect but
yeah it was a child and
pretty easily came to
understand from watching it just
some things from a physics perspective
don't work yeah
but but yeah the thing that
I want to point to though here with Alex
is that
he's trying to
in theory make a metaphor
about the political system being like wrestling
right but he's not
doing that no in in in
actuality he's complaining about wrestling
yes and some of his audience not knowing that wrestling
is is famous yes yeah
and that's weird because he left the part
about where he wants everybody
to know that the politics is theater
and then got really focused on
the personal issue that some people get mad
at him for telling them that wrestling is fake
he gets lost very easily
and that's that's weird yeah
the focus should have been like I'm mad that people
aren't awake for the government
not like oh
swear to god if somebody tells me that wrestling
is real again I'm gonna be furious like no
remember that the politics I don't know
something like that yeah yeah
um anti I mean he complains
a bunch more about rest of course but
before he does he complains about how his audience
don't know the how radios were
rome man believe that's real
and some people say well how could it be
staged in the presidential election
you know how could that happen
hey that's impossible
yeah we've got a country that
believes that wrestling
is real
and I guess this was
built into our minds in
John Lane movies where John Lane would
punch somebody 45 times in a bar
and they just have a bloody nose
he punched somebody 45 times
they will die
guaranteed if you're really punching somebody
again it's all false
reality people don't know
most people
don't think about how food gets
to the grocery store
how they hear radio shows
I get questions all the time by people
well how do I I've been listening to you
on Austin on radio and I
I heard you in another city
a thousand miles away
do you how do you go do you live there
too
and these are people with businesses
and families and I go satellite
satellites people don't
think how things work they don't know how many continents
there are they don't know where Iraq
is they don't know what
what the Bill of Rights they don't know anything
they're just mindless idiots
and I'm starting to realize this
more and more
and it just scares
me to death
who are you talking to
I have no idea you're on the radio
in another city do you live there to what
I mean here's what
here's what I see here's what I see this conversation
being somebody
is trying to have a polite little small talk
conversation with him of like
oh you know I
kind of don't really know how radio
works like you know I can hear you
simultaneously in another city doing something
that very well might be
it's just as likely it's someone
who's been lost in the woods since the days
of Marconi
it's just like what is this magical
technology
how do they fit the little man in there
what are you saying it must be a time travel
yeah it's crazy
it's 2004
this doesn't speak highly of the people
he associates with
also did we have a world star back then most people
knew how a fight really kind of went right
so Alex is
take some calls he's in a bad mood
and still is complaining about wrestling
I don't want to get off into a rant
here I'm in kind of a bad mood today
you might have picked up on that
I did let's go ahead and talk
to Ralph in Tennessee Ralph go ahead
hey how you doing Alex
well I'm a conspiracy theorist because
I say professional wrestling is fake
what a lame professional wrestling
is nothing but a joke
it's all it is it's just all rigged
it's a joke it's uh
they know who's gonna win who's gonna lose
it's a big bile pal
no it's not liberal oh boy
it's fun
what is going on sometimes
telling fantasy stories
is fun Alex Alex doesn't like fun
we the Lord of the Rings
came out at the same time are you gonna be like
ah they knew it Frodo was
gonna drop it in there
ah come on
uh that's just Andy
circus it's all staged
that's not even gollum
so we got some more wrestling talk with another caller
and uh something comes up about
Carrie here that I thought was pretty interesting
John and mash go ahead
yeah I just got a couple
questions um
as far as John Kerry goes
with his whole sculling bone connection
let's call him Hulk Hogan
and Bush is the
Undertaker let's just
start calling him a professional wrestler
or he's uh
he's uh oh who's the guy that says
stepping to a slim gen
or the uh
I haven't watched that yet
I'm trying to think of a professional wrestler
cause that's the mentality
basically I was just gonna say
what do you make
I know he has this elite connection
with the sculling bone secret society thing
but what do you make of his tour of duty
in Vietnam
let's just say he's not a coward
he didn't um run off
with a bottle of Jack Daniels and cocaine
AWOL for a year and a half
from the Texas National Guard
cause I just found it interesting
that he had that connection but yet
he still did that tour of duty
well I mean in the past
the elite did send their sons off the war
George Sr.
did that, did mail out on his crew
and then there was big talk on the carrier
that he'd be court-martialed but of course he wasn't
so the swift boating hasn't gone around yet
Alex hasn't gotten that memo
also you know who else served our country
honorably
Bonesaw
characters that Macho Man right inside had played
I was legitimately going to bring up Bonesaw
I was like does he think
Bonesaw is real
cause Spider-Man didn't actually defeat him
in a fair fight
that's not true, it wasn't a fair fight
it wasn't a fair fight
Bonesaw couldn't jump on the walls
oh yeah
Bonesaw is real
I think that in this case
the cream
does not rise to the top
Alex doesn't remember Macho Man
Randy Savage
I mean that's terrible
wrestling casting even at the time
you should know better that Carrie
and Bush are not
Bush is not Undertaker
Carrie is not terrible
I thought you meant casting Macho Man as Bonesaw
no that was great casting
that's maybe one of the best parts of that movie
yeah I don't know
I think Alex is just pulling at straws
but it is fascinating to me that he is
trying to score points against Bush's
a wall service
by saying at least Carrie served
and everyone has to know
that in a very short order
Jerome Corsi
and Associated of Alex's
will start pushing a lot of the Swift Boat stuff
so I think we'll see that develop even
if we continue down this path in 2004
that'll be interesting, I don't remember
actively the way that the Swift Boating
happened, I can only think of it
as the strategy
that go for their strength kind of
thing instead of fighting their weakness
so it'll be interesting to see
that turn
yeah I'll be interested to hear the narratives again
I bet there's way more than we even realized
there's the picture of
the smearing of Carrie
that we all kind of remember in a vague sense
but I bet there's a hundred different side shoots
that went nowhere
so we get another caller
and this guy found a kindred spirit
in Alex
and then he has a critique of John Carrie
that I think is a little bit dumb
Malcolm, where are you calling us from?
Good morning, I'm
Richmond Park, Illinois. Alright, good to talk to you.
Yeah, I'm a new listener, I've been listening
for a while, all of two weeks
and I've already got four or five of my friends
listening to you.
Thank you. That's a good feeling
to find out that you're not alone
that you're not nuts because when I
have been researching these type of things
in New World Order for about the last
15 years at least
and when I try to talk to people
about it, they tell me how nuts you read too many books
or
you've got too many
thoughts running around in your head. Yeah, I've heard that.
You read too many books.
Oh, we got a reader boy, this is bad.
I've even been told
I'm going to run myself nuts by having too many
thoughts running around in my brain, you know.
Buddy.
But this guy, Carrie
is the strangest looking
person I've ever seen.
He reminds me of someone in one of these
sci-fi horror flicks where
they have a human alien
hybrid.
He's just a strange looking guy.
Well, they're all in bread.
You may have had too many
thoughts. Okay.
So he looks like a... He looks weird.
Is the criticism that
he may be a human alien hybrid
or is it that he just looks like he could
be a human alien hybrid? It's not developed.
I would suspect that it is
possible. He's saying that it is possible
that he's a human alien hybrid. Sure.
But as direct as the criticism ever gets
is like, John Kerry guy looks weird.
I mean, I suppose like
what? I'd say his head is
slightly larger in proportion maybe.
Is that what you would say? Is that why you would go
with alien human hybrid? Cause I think
he looks like a normal guy. Looks normal enough
to me. Yeah. Although I do love the idea
of like... Wait, are you a human
alien hybrid? We gotta move on. Okay.
I
like the idea of like some other show that takes
itself seriously with the color like being
like, oh man, I've been researching
the
New World Order forever and
people say that I read too much and
this person looks weird.
All right.
He's got too many thoughts in my head.
So the same caller
we get back to
wrestling. Coming back. Well Malcolm, I mean
looking at this election, is it not
WWF wrestling?
Listen,
my son is 32 years old
you still believe that
that's for real and we
have these arguments about so now I just
laugh at him. I don't even
contend with him anymore and I said
anytime you get a man that weighs
350 pounds, jump up and down
in the face of another man and the guy
gets up and shakes it off and throws him out of
the ring, you're gonna tell me you don't know that
that's so fake, you know?
I guess your son's never been a knockdown
drughouse.
Effortlessly not. I know
he used to fight coming up as a kid.
I guess that's a good thing for him but
I mean. So we kind of got off track
again. Yeah. Cause Alex is trying
to talk about the metaphor of
the election being like wrestling.
Right. And the guy's like oh my 32 year old
son still thinks it's real. I bet he doesn't.
No. I bet the dad just
thinks that he does because the son still
likes wrestling. Right. And that's the way
that the dad rationalizes that
like you're watching this crap. Yeah, the only way
you could like this is if you thought it was a
real sport. Right. You can't possibly
like this because it is a
theater production. I'm not in
kayfabe so I don't understand it from the
outside. Right. Anyway
not productive. Nope. Not a whole lot going
on. So that guy's point was
Carrie looks weird and my son
doesn't know that wrestling's fake. More
or less. Yeah. Wow. We got a reader here.
Big time. Save one last clip here
Jordan. Yeah.
And like I said, this was
really funny to me. This was great.
And it's a continuation of something
from our last 2004 episode
that is frustrating Alex to no
end. Dave, go
ahead Dave. Where are you calling us from? Hey Alex
Michigan here. Welcome. Go ahead.
Yeah, I was looking in my encyclopedia
of film and the movie
I came up with the 1914
Tyrone Power movie
called aristocracy.
This is another movie so we're talking about.
What's not the same movie? No.
In my book it shows that was
the first movie he was ever in.
We're not talking about this individual.
It's some reason we talk about this Italian
movie showing
Moloch worship and then it turns into this
Tyrone Power character. Totally separate.
What's on your mind, sir? Yeah.
I'll tell you what's on his mind.
I love the idea that hopefully
for like the next weeks people just
keep calling him and telling him.
This is now like spiraling out of control.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It started with a caller
who said that he saw this movie
from 1915. This Italian silent movie.
Yeah.
The head Moloch worship and what have you.
And Alex wanted a copy.
Another guy calls in and he's talking about
a Tyrone Powers movie. I think that's the name.
I don't know. I don't know film. Could be.
And so it's the wrong movie. Yeah.
But Alex is like he listens to him for too long
before they realize it's the wrong movie. Right.
So this caller is calling in with another movie
starring that guy. It might be the right movie.
The same actor. Yeah.
So good.
It's like if IMDb was calling you.
Yeah. Like is this the actor you were looking for.
It's so great. What are these most notable roles.
Yeah.
Like in terms of things that are really funny
about Alex. Like these clips that get posted
online. Yeah.
There's a cheap funniness to it. Sure.
But the real rich
dense funny.
You can only find by going through this
and listening to Alex's frustration
at people bringing up Italian
movies from the 1910s.
Yeah. You're just not going to cut.
You can't cut that into a clip
for Twitter or something because that requires
you to do something that no
InfoLawr's listener can do.
Which is follow along with the story over
a great length of time. Yeah. There's a lot of context.
Or you have to
you have to.
I mean I guess you have to follow along with the
story for a long time and then slowly
collect these clips.
So later on you can have a supercut.
Or you have to remember that they happen.
Yeah. There's no way to do that unless
you're I don't know you.
Yeah. So we come to the end of this Jordan.
And I'm not sure we
learned anything too impactful
except for that Tim Osmond is Osama
Bin Laden. Sure. And that Alex
doesn't know about swift boating yet.
I feel like you're here's what I'm saying
about the Tim Osmond. OK.
You've got a better story if it's an
anagram of Osama Bin Laden.
Yeah. That's the story is that if
you rearrange the letters then you
get Osama Bin Laden. That's how you do it.
You know you're going to have to work better.
Yeah. Yeah. Punch up. Punch up again.
You got to work with the materials that you got.
That's fair. Tiny nuke guy Ted
Anderson did what they did and they got
what they got. Yeah.
So I hope you've had a good trip by this
point because it'll be the end of your trip
by the end of this episode comes out.
We'll be back. Yeah. I'll see you when you get
back. But until then we have a website.
Indeed we do. It's knowledge fight dot com.
We're also on Twitter. We are on Twitter.
It's that knowledge underscore fights.
What's going on?
Hold on.
What?
What are they do?
Well you know what, ah and now here comes
the sex robots. Andy and
Kansas you're on the air. Thanks for
holding.
Hello Alex. It's my first time calling.
