Episode Date: June 29, 2026

https://www.patreon.com/raykump Support the show + get bonus episodes every week.AI was supposed to make life easier, but now it’s driving up the price of memory, computers, gaming gear, and everything else with a chip in it. Ray looks at Apple’s price hikes, the AI memory boom, Micron, data centers, smart products, America’s failing infrastructure, nuclear panic, Wimbledon, and why the machines may eventually charge you to remember your own life.

Much like a Mormon girl's legs, the straight-of-hor moves is closed again. Or they have a lot of kids, or the legs are always open. Well, I'm not Santa Claus, so I don't know, do I? I couldn't have built a motherfucking pipeline through the Caucasian mountains by now. It's like investing in Bitcoin. He's just to shut your scum hole and just do it. Much like the new He-Man movie, the weather has been pleasantly mid, and the Washington Reflecting Pool is falling apart

and making D.C. look like Flint, Michigan's dirty pussy. Maga activists on X are saying that liberals are actively sabotaging the pool. Well, why don't you stop being a bitch and rendition random people from the crate and barrel and waterboard them with piss to get some proof? Summertime is finally here. enough of this miserable war and high gasoline prices. It's time for a hot sun and breaking your neck at a water park or falling out of a roller coaster

because you were too fat for the safety bar to close on you properly and high gasoline prices. This is the age of intelligent machines and blowing your hand off with a firecracker like in that butterfly effect movie, which had no butterfly effect. But I'll tell you what does everything else. A butterfly flaps its wings in Bangladesh, and you end up dead from Havana syndrome, or Gulf War syndrome.

Or maybe you'll just crash like Princess Diana. Who cares? Smoke them if you got them. Welcome to the endless summer. Welcome to Kump. I got this book, Zabiba and the King, by its author. Saddam Hussein. I don't know where I forget where I found it this week.

I think I just happened to see it on, oh no, it was a question on Jeopardy. That's right. I guessed it correctly. It was a final Jeopardy question about Zabba and the king. What is it about to Beba in the king? See, it was something about a dictator or wrote a thing or something, and I guessed Saddam Hussein, and I couldn't have been more right.

And the book, I believe it's in, it's in, some dispute who wrote Zabiba and the king and, you know, who if it was in fact Saddam, people think it might have been. Some people say it wasn't. It was written around the time of

the invasion. It's kind of a metaphor of some sort. A morality play, if you will, or something. An allegory, an allegory, I think, about rape. I think it's something to do with Zabiba or the king rapes?

I'm not sure. It has something to do of rape. I'm not sure for this reason. I'll read you the back first. Then then we'll give the payoff. Does Saddam Hussein receive any money for this book? Not a dime. This translation is owned by the editor.

Also, he's famously dead. So that's, you know, another reason why he's not getting paid. I didn't fund Saddam Hussein. You know, famously his sons are also dead. The ones used to do, I think they used to do preeminent. for real. I mentioned on the show a few weeks ago that bring up Udine Hussay. They used to like to do shit like that in the real world. What is it about? Zabiba and the king is an allegorical love story between a mighty king, Saddam. Oh, he's supposed to be the king in this.

And the simple yet beautiful commoner named Zabiba, the Iraqi people. Zabiba is married to a cruel and unloving husband to the United States, who forces themselves upon her. against her will. This act of rape is compared to the United States invasion of Iraq. Why translate the book? The editor, an American businessman, had the book translated to English to satisfy his own curiosity. He also felt it would be interesting and a beneficial tool for the curious, the patriotic, the educator, historian, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. What is the setting? The stopping grounds of a young Saddam Hussein near to Crete. What is the time period?

The era of the mid-600s. Oh, so I guess, I guess the Biba. I guess the king isn't literally Saddam. Whatever. Cut to, why do I have to read off the back? Why didn't I read this? It's not a very big book. Why didn't I read it first?

And then I can tell you all about it, right? And then I sound like a moron. I'll tell you why. I got this book. It's not widely available on Amazon. It's available. But it's like, you know, it's one of those things where it's like, It's not like trying to get it tomorrow.

It's looking to wait a week or whatever and like pay shipping. And I'll just read you. So this book is dedicated to those entrepreneurs who are driven to launch brands rooted in empathy for humanity. Interesting. That's very interesting. What is this? What's that got to do with Zabiba and the king, you might ask.

and I will, oh, oh, maybe we'll go to the first page. It's not the Bebatten the King. It's a payoff. That's a goddamn, it's a bullshit scam. I got fucking fleeced here. It's bigger than, it's called Bigger Than This by Fabian Geertelter, which is interesting. I find it very interesting because this book actually has a forward. It was, that was written by David Glaze, creative director of Amazon.

So let me get this straight. I don't know if I piece this conspiracy together just yet. But I've got this book about Saddam or was written by Saddam. It's not that. It's a scam. It could be the Indian in the fucking cupboard, right? It doesn't matter. Regardless, it's not the book I ordered.

It's this bullshit thing, which I don't know if it's the coincidence that the creative director of Amazon wrote a forward. maybe the scammer I mean is this book not been translated is that the thing maybe it's not been translated why won't we the scare do you want me to read it like what is the game

authenticity like storytelling disruption and the dreaded innovator authenticity has become one of those buzzwords that gets tossed around with abandon also Saddam raped me that's also a buzzword apparently then this Fabian

Garrett told I mean this is just I don't even know what this is fucking about. I mean, it's highlighted. This book comes pre-highlighted by the creator. I was read one of these highlights. For the first time in history, it is more difficult for big brands to gain unconditional consumer trust

than this for a startup brand. I guess, I guess it's harder for a big brand. I guess if that's what you want, unconditional consumer, you know, it's hard to get, it's never been harder in this. for a big brand.

Just give me a child. Just give me a baby. Just give me a fuck out. I'm giving it back to you maybe. They're very skeptical now. Now they only want to do that at two-year-time. And the mother story school.

But it used to be that the Coca-Cola Corporation could just take your baby and you would say, fine. Give me a few shekels, a few fucking shillings. It would all be fine. It wasn't a matter of trust. People just used to do.

the value your babies less. But that's the, I don't know, another highlight. Again, these are not my highlights. These are highlights from the altar, I guess. We don't work for money alone. Money is a necessity, but not the reason we are going into the workforce.

Now, I go into workforce to find people to sexually harass. Like, what are you? What is this? You and the company have to intentionally live the story to embodies the brand's values. honestly this is not a bad idea it's not a bad idea to pre-highlight your best shit in a book I don't mind this because now I can just read this bullshit

it is the absolute best way to launch a brand that is not based on innovation well that's not just as I was about to say I was won over by this Saddam stealing book and it's pre-highlights it just this highlighted the meaning it's a middle of a sentence so fuck this how about I read a book

book. I write a goddamn self-help book. It's called How to Fucking I don't fucking just shit on the street and scream at women by Ray Kump. By that. This summer, I want you to go out of the street, take your pants off, shit into a fucking, take a fucking bunch of toilet paper and make a ring and sit in the ring.

Better yet, cardboard. Make a cardboard toilet on the street. This is how you do it. This is actually a trick I learned in the army. You get a bunch of cardboard. Go behind a supermarket, go behind a Walmart and try to get some cardboard. If they try to tell you, hey, fuck you, that's our cardboard. You're not allowed to take that. Just fucking throw a bunch of bleach. Just throw it in the air. Don't throw it at them. Throw it up in the direction that might hit them. If you throw it at them, you're much more likely to catch a charge. Catch the carton of the bullshit.

If you just throw it in a general direction, you can say I was just fucking drumming with abandon. You know, it matters. There's not a lot of space in prisons these days. And they want to need to make room. So you really need to watch what you're doing. It's all I'm saying. It's all I'm saying.

All right. So shut the fuck up and listen to me, please. And throw some bleach and they'll scatter. They don't know what it is. They don't know what it is. They don't know what it's piss. they don't know if it's fucking nothing right if I ever done this

none of your business and you get the cardboard or you just you know whatever hopefully you just get it without throwing bleach but always carries some bleach with you because if it happens to get in the eyes you know it's very cheap and it scares people they don't know is it safe to get hit in the eyes of bleach

probably not right should I look it up uh I'll ask I'll ask chat GPT I'll just say I won't say I'll just say, is it safe to get hit in the eyes with bleach? I bet it'll say no. This is an intuition I have.

Let's see what it says. Let's see if it says, bleach in the eye can be a real chemical injury. There you go. No, bleach is not safe. So I wouldn't, I can't advise you to do it. But that's what I say. You never throw it at people. But if you throw it in the air,

who knows that's why i think it's a good thing just to have on hand um you get you it's it's diversionary tactic right if someone's coming at you you just fucking throw in the air and go whoopsie and you get the cardboard and then you i mean this is all this is all an aid of me i mean we're going a long way for a premise where myself hopebook is me sitting in the street i feel like we've gotten the idea, right? It's a satire of me getting screwed over by Amazon.com. I guess I can return this.

To be fair, we really just wanted it to put on the bookshelf, you know, to put on the, to display as a conversation starter, which it has become. It's certainly a conversation starter. No one could say otherwise. So, you know, welcome to show.

Welcome to comp, I mean. Welcome to the comp. Welcome to the show. it's a wild time. It is the beginning of summer. You know, it may be the end of the American Empire, but it's the beginning of summer. It's June 21st, which is Sunday.

Well, it's always the longest day of the year. People forget that. You know, you get to July 4th. A lot of times you won't be out and about in the summer fun until July 4th. At least I wasn't, you know. And now everyone makes it a point to be a beach bum and get to the beach the first week of summer, right?

It doesn't even get the water doesn't even get cold hot until, you know, not hot. It gets still freezing in June. You got to wait until July, but people are going to rush to the beach, not me. But I'm always struck when you, when you, on the Fourth of July, when you're looking around and it's like, you know, it's like you're already two weeks. It's true. It's what I'm saying. It's two, a week or two into summer already.

It's already getting worse, the amount of light you have per day. You'll never have more light per day than the 21st of the year of June. And I think that's something to remember. I used to go to camp in August, like late August, like a third week of August, maybe. And it used to strike me that around 8 o'clock or 8.30, it was already getting dark. And it's a very depressing thing to realize. And that summer is ending. And you have to go back to school where everyone tries to fucking, you know, tell you what to do.

and fucking, you know, and give you shit. And they won't let you fucking, you know, harass people, bother people. That's what they say you do. You don't do that. You're fucking, you're, it just stinks, whatever. So the point is, uh, that's my pitch for summer for June 21st. It's the first of the year. It's the, I mean, why I keep saying the first of the year?

It's the 21st of June. And it's a fucking, it's just like a, there's something about it being like 9 p.m. and being like bright out that I find alluring. Maybe I'm just stupid. Maybe it means nothing to you. Maybe you know, maybe you feel like it makes more sense

for it to be dark by then. I tell you, when you're making a show like this, sometimes I have blackout curtains now. Because I'm a man, you know, I can't be subject to nature, much like the conquistadors of old who were so well ambassadors these days

because they, oh, the Native Americans were one with nature. Well, nature fucks you, all right? You have to take control of nature. That's a lesson that we all learned. That's why I have blackout curtains. But it can be a real hassle. Or vice versa. I used to try to make movies in the winter

when I was young, these shitty movies. And you'd run out of a fucking sun by 4 p.m. you know and it would be cold bitter cold and uh you know summer is just the time of fucking renewal the time of fucking it's just you take your fucking you get some heat from the from the sun right like it's fucking you feel you feel warmth from the sun um i don't know i i everyone accuses me of being this fucking marauding like oh you're doom scroller now you're You talk about how set. I'm trying to tell you how nice it is to be in the heat of the sun,

to be out in the elements, to fucking, you know, you feel the sun's rays on you. You get some vitamin D. You know, you oil yourself up. This is, this is a time to,

you know, go to the beach this summer. Go to the watering hole. If that's what you're a swimming hall, right? It's where you guys, you know, if you don't have a beach,

you know, go hiking. They can't, you know, they can't take that from you yet. it's AI thing it's starting to fizzle out if you ask me I think they really bit off more

they can chew they got greedy you know maybe eventually we'll all be in some fucking you know stick me in the ass cyber prison but I don't think this is this go around I think I think I think the whole thing is gonna crash for a while

and they have to really look their wounds because they got you know like they always just get too greedy too quick no one can just kind of keep their fucking predictions conservative no one can fucking just act like an adult so we're really dealing with the

you know it's like the Trump administration I feel like yeah regardless of how you feel politically they just just couldn't and these real things everyone like you know everyone was giving me shit

oh you know Trump he's fucking you must feel like a real moron for question again he's doing so great now he's fucking got this peace deal you're all your fucking

your chicken littles running around whining about it well where is it now you know Israel bombs Lebanon just because they hate they love war right and then and then and it's all fall apart they closed straight of war moves again of course they did this is this this this is just what's gonna be there is no straight or four moves there's nothing there there isn't even oil here's

you want to really blow your tickle particular your mind blow your brain there's no more oil what about that what if all of this is just a fucking you know that's the conspiracy perhaps that there actually isn't that much oil left they all got together and said hey we got about like 16 i don't know what we won't be a small amount but still use it like 16 million gallons whatever you fill in the gap there on my computer we get we have we we have enough for a fucking year and then we're done let's pretend to have a war about this bullshit and we'll close the straight oh no i'm just saying you see what i'm getting at i don't have to fucking you know back back into the idea a little with me, you know,

fucking give me a little fucking room to hang myself. But you know, what about that? Why are we, you always have to keep limber. You always have to keep your brain a little loose. What if the fucking just isn't that much oil and we're out of it? We're running low and this,

you know, and they'll just keep, they'll use the straight of four moods as a fucking dangle. Now, do I think that's true? Yeah, I just came up with it a minute ago. So I don't want to commit to it.

But it actually, this is what's important. You never, whatever you you start getting like fucking fixated on something right you get fucking like you know locked in like oh Trump is so dumb and he fucked up and it seems like it just kind of it doesn't even make sense why we were in invade Iran we just bomb Iran and see that we're just getting you know he's just getting

fucking dogtailed is that term dogtailed did Trump get dogtailed by Israel he got tramp stamped he got fucking sticker fisted he got fucking whale-tailed, whatever he did. It's easy to kind of get stuck in that pattern. And perhaps that's true. But maybe the alternative idea is just that,

like there is, it's actually a great theater happening before your eyes. And it's just not that much oil left. It just isn't very much oil. Scary. It's actually scarier than it might think. I'm not looking at my phone here. I mean, I technically am, but

this is in the same vein. I saw this. I didn't, you know, transfer to the computer, so it's a little, you know, I'm just going to read to you. This is from the, what is this, the Wall Street Journal? The classic movie was nearly destroyed by a single line of code. A beloved film was accidentally deleted and miraculously saved. The real story behind the Toy Story franchise is even better than the movies.

And we brought up Toy Story, uh, was it last week? week before. We talked about Toy Story. Before anyone saw it, one of the most beloved movies of all time was nearly destroyed by a single line of code. It had to be saved by an unlikely cast of characters that included a six-month-old baby. What the fuck? It only survived after a computer with the last known copy of the movie was trapped into the backseat of a Volvo station wagon and chauffured the Pixar Animation Studio. And inside that computer was billions of dollars of intellectual property. Woody, Buzzlight,

you're Mr. Potato Head. They're just lying to you. And I don't know why anymore. It used to make sense why people lied, why people got into this bullshit. Now it's just like, you know, tell me story,

fucking the CIA. They want to make it seem because all we've seen in the past, you know, number of years, four years, 10 years, is the other incompetence of our foreign security services, of our,

of our intelligence services, of our executive brand of our government in general. The only reason they were able to keep their fucking finger on the throat of humanity is, you know, by pretty much monopoly power. And so they'll just go, hey, they'll think it's uplifting for you to hear about how the CIA, like, poisoned the fucking well or fucking, you know, or like how the NSA saved Pixar just because it makes them seem like he did something competent.

Hey, the NSA, the NSA had to step in because Woody was good propaganda for the fucking first Gulf War. You know, I guess it's a second goal. Whatever. What happened in between? Monica Lewinsky. The guys at Pixar like to fuck Monica Lewinsky with Bill Clinton. And so they helped him out. The NSA helped out Pixar because they're all fucking Monica Lewinsky together.

They had their type. I always thought she was fine. She actually looks, you know, Mollyelow Whiskey is a fine woman. You know, dog shitter. They make her feel bad. I think she's, you know, I think she gets a bad rap. Maybe she shouldn't have blown the president while he was talking to the, you know, premier of China or the president of China.

But, you know, I mean, was he just doing crossword puzzles and shitting in her mouth while she blew him? Was she getting Blumpkins? Was she blumpkin in? Was he getting blumpkins by Ronald Olwinski while he was talking to China and doing in here at Times crossword puzzle? That's how brilliant he was. He was a peto, adjacent guy.

probably allegedly involved in other you know I can't say like he could probably assume me if I say um he actually we don't know but he was a you know he hanging home he was around Epstein a lot definitely seems like uh he was uh involved in some shit huh um but brilliant like they say he say he said they say he was really good the new york times crossword puzzle so you know take that for what's worth i remember hearing that like anecdote he's so he's so smart he's talking to the fucking president of norway and he's just doing the new york town's crossword puzzle like in pen in pen not even pencil the implication being that he you know he you have to erase it he'd always get it right the first time unless he was fucking trying to aim

into malcolm's asshole with his own asshole the shit into her asshole and then he got a little messier i'm such a crude person why do i talk like this what do i say these things. Brilliant guy, I guess. You know, I guess people think he's brilliant. Speaking of, I saw the new He-Man movie, Masters of the Universe. I thought it was fine.

You know, I like to review movies when I was the chance. I thought it was mid. I thought, you know, it had a light, it has kind of a light of reverence. for these characters that were like, I watched He Man as a kid, a little boy. I don't remember the guy whose head, you know, spun around

like like Stretch Armstrong very well. I have a vague recollection. Ram Man, like they built into this thing of like because the character who, you know, he made sense to Earth to the boy. And then he has to like remember. these people who were part of his dad's kingdom and so he names

these names that were I guess were their names in the 80s he gives he had he are names that he kind of creates the spoiler alert I'm sorry but his names you know so so it's kind of a nice touch it's touching I guess there's a way of kind of keeping it grounded because the he man needs to be fucking grounded all right you understand this is like a toy that they basically created

just to like as a show they created to sell a toy i think they had the cone in the barbarian thing and they lost the license you know and so they fucking came up with this call him he man they didn't bother to come why not call them like bulk man why not call them fucking aze man right call them fucking call them glamour man all these things are more creative call him buff boy big call him beefcake bob no they call him he man i mean i know i know you know you you're thinking it's based nowadays because it's all very gender you know but they weren't thinking that way back then it was just lazy just lazy i'm gonna drink so this lovely bull dear god give me wings let me fly away far far away like jenny right from raging bull no boris gump oh man so many things

happening so many things in the news not really uh pope leo is right about AI, he's just too late. What is this? I don't know. This seems like some bullshit. As artificial intelligence rapidly advances and massive global changes hang in the balance, Pope Leo the 14th recently declared

that humans must maintain control of his incredibly powerful technology lest we lose our humanity. I think the Catholic Church here is, I don't think they know. I think Pope Leo is some, I was going to call him something else, but I don't know he's from Chicago right he's a Chicago boy you know I think he's you know

he's like a fish out of water I don't think he's savvy on the world stage I think they fucking got some guy from Chicago they were trying to like maybe we could talk some sense to America I don't think it works you know I don't think he's up on this I and I think he's afraid and I think maybe we can get like you know the Catholic church can get back some power they used to have they used to have they used to be a big deal they used to fucking run shit and now they you know for a long time they've been kind of you know a secondary

power on the world stage and they're thinking like oh we you bet we we we got to get a handle on his AI and stay on top of it and he's just you know he's just kind of taking for granted that's actually like not bullshit um Pope leo's recent document Magnifica

Humanitas how many just speaking how about you a fucking gross and balls Pope you know that you know that that you know that that chair that he sits in with a hole in it it's not the shit in this is true there's a hole people have a famous chair

that pope sits in and it's got a hole in it and the purpose of that hole is to let your balls hang down into the hole and some other cardinal or priest or whatever can look at your balls

and you think I'm great you can making this up I'm making this up because at one point some woman with a pussy instead of a dick got herself into the pope's chair, I guess, and they just lost their minds about it. Big problem. So how about we check for his balls?

Because why don't you fucking make things English? You guys from Chicago, you like Chicago dogs, right? You like tomatoes and your hot dogs. How about you fucking write these things in English? Don't call it a magnificus humanitas. Just call it a fucking, is that human magnificent? Magnificent humans? The stupid title.

You think just because it's Italian, you can call it something dumb? You know, call it something cool. Call it the fucking, call my way the fuckhole. Call it, I control heaven. If I was the Pope, here's what I would say. Hey, you pieces of shit over in fucking in Silicon Valley, as you call it. I call it Silicon Piss shit. That's not as great as it could be.

I call a Silicon suck my fucking gun. You guys think you're so fucking smart. Well, I control who. gets into heaven or not. So I'm going to start exercising that right. Sam Olman, you're going straight to fucking burn with the Bialz above himself. I'm just calling. I'm making

a call here. You don't think guys going to listen to me? I think guys going to listen to some other bullshit? I'm the only guy on earth. You want gamble? You want to play? Hey, you all like to go to go to Macau, right? In China or whatever? In Hong Kong and gamble, we go to Vegas. How about you gamble on the biggest stage? I'm the fucking Pope.

and I'll set you fucking soul on fire. Do it. You're so afraid. What are you afraid of? Like you survived the Nazis. Just go to work. I guess they allied with the Nazis, but you know,

just fucking Pope Leo's recent document, Magnificantly, humanities has sparked worldwide debate by warning humanity about the dangers of AI. His concerns with thoughtful, sincere, and rudent desire to ensure that technology serves mankind. But there's one problem. The AI genie is already out of the bottle. What moron, wrote?

I'm going to listen to some guy who writes for MSN? If I didn't know Windows computer, I wouldn't even know this fucking thing existed. Microsoft Edge? This shows up. I just delete this thing. Throughout human history, every transformative technology has been used for both good and evil. Fire cooked food and burned cities? The printing press spread knowledge and propaganda.

Nuclear energy powers hospitals and lights home. but also produce the most destructive weapons ever created. Or official delgeless will be no different. So the question is the only, all right. How about the Pope grows a fucking sack and just fucking says, hey, I have a nuke. Here's what I would do if I was a Pope. I would just say I have a nuke.

You all thought you were smart, going after Iran. You're so worried about the Islam. Well, they don't have the bomb. I mean, Pakistan does. but whatever they haven't used it now i got the bomb anybody can get one too i bet you i mean does it it only have the bomb probably not right there's any catholic countries have the bomb that's such a good question do any catholic countries have nuclear weapons i don't think i mean i mean there are a lot catholics in america don't get it twisted but like spain is a big catholic

country. A lot of South American countries or Catholic countries. Depends what you mean by Catholic countries. Trickly, yes. France. Well, okay, France. So France better give the Pope a fucking nuke.

I mean, like, I'm not, I don't actually advocate for this. I want to be very clear. I want plausible liability. Unless they make me the Pope. If I'm the Pope, I'm going to France. I'm going to remember how we used to Pope fucking Pope funnel, you motherfuckers? Charlemagne, right?

We used to crown your kings, King Francis or whatever the fuck. Was it King Francis? Was the big fucking Pope, the French kings. Doesn't know. King Louis. He used to love the Catholic Church. Let's get back at it. You guys are doing dog shit now.

You're on the world stage. No one respects you. Let's let's bring this partnership back. Give us a nuke and we'll do the dirty work. and then I would come out and say you all worried and I could do my speech but how you were all worried about Islam

I got the Catholic bomb Muslim bomb oh my God Catholic bomb that's for real that's laudy fucking da and I would I need two one to test

one that would detonate I would blow up Stonehenge well people weren't there I mean imagine the Pope fucking blew up Stonehenge where like a bunch of people were there he's like I was told it. First of all, let's get something straight. I speak emphatically. I cannot be held accountable

by man's laws. I'm the Pope. Right? So let's just get that out of the way. Second of all, I'm very sorry for anyone who died in our nuclear test of Stonehenge. Again, you guys are telling me, well, you know, I made some deal with France, but as, you know, Stonehenge is in England. But, you know, I'm again, I'm the Pope of the world. God run the world. God, run the way. the world. I know we, you know, Catholics, let that get watered down, but, you know, we do. We run it. Now, you know, you can argue with Muslims and Episcopal aliens and Buddhists. Sure. Yeah, again, this is what I would do if I was the Pope. You have to press your advantage. It does, it does you know good as a Pope to be like making people's cases for them.

If they want to argue, well, like, even in your understanding of power, you know, you're not, accounting for like you know, billions of people are Muslims. Let them make that argument, that's my point. So I'm sorry, I was told by my, you know,

my staff that, uh, there wouldn't be people when we, when we tested it, but to be clear, these, these guys don't really know what they're doing. We don't have,

we, I'm trying to make it better, but we don't only have a security state. I have a bunch of dumb priests and monks and, uh, they, they fucked up. So what I'm not sorry about is for having a nuclear bomb.

I have one and you're going to start fucking treat me with respect. And I'm making the fucking language of the Vatican English. You know, Vatican II famously made it so that, you know, you speak in, you know, you didn't have to go to mass in Latin anymore. In the old days, you have to go to mass. It would be Latin in America, right? And then we didn't need to face you. And then Vatican 2 made it so that, like, well, you know, we'll say it in a common ton.

So in France, you're here in French and America, here in English. And some people on Twitter are like, we want to go, it's no good. We have to go get rid of Vatican 2 because people got in soft. Why say the other way around? People are backing soft, press your goddamn advantage. We have an American pope for the first time ever. And we're doing jack shit with it from the American point of view. I mean, I don't want this American

Pope to be charactering to Trump but I do think he should be pressing American interests you know that's the thing shit on Trump all you want call the fascists if you want whatever whatever you want to call on what did he say the rise of fascism

what he said fine finally but fucking he should make it clear Trump he's like Trump's a fucking fat idiot scoundrel I think he's a fascist but he's the American president and that does count for something, right?

Because that's still important because America is the most important country that's born here. You don't like make some fucking gay. People get too fucking wired until he's like, oh, we have to build a rationale for it. No, he's a fucking, he's born in America. If he does not serve American interests,

if the Pope does not serve American interests, he's a traitor to America. Does that mean the real Pope? Yes, it does. It means they're all traitors. countries and those countries want to fucking like not do shit about it as they tend to not do shit about anything that's their business but we're americans and when people betray us we put him in jail so the pope i'm just saying i'm a catholic so you know take that i was an older boy

if the pope does not want to fucking get down with you know securing america as the first among equals at least in the Catholic world he's a bit of a traitor he needs to be put in jail um is that contraver i don't care of it's controversial guy all right i have controversial views

it's the summer of it's the summer of american catholicism now are we technically not a big you know we're not big catholic country we have a lot of catholics but you know we're technically more protestant right episcopal baptist or whatever I would just as a poise look get on board

shut up we got a big organization here we're all Christians let's unify what who care oh you guys don't want you guys don't want you guys don't want to not eat meat on Fridays eat a fish fillet and get on board all right it's like the mafia we want to be like you want a tiny little

bunch of tiny little mafia families we want a big one and we're all getting we're all fucking getting paid I'm just saying I don't know what this Heming and Hong is as the Pope. It seems crazy to me. Seems crazy.

Excuse me one second. I think the Pope should technically, you know, elect the American president. I mean, he'll do it officially based on our votes. But I do think it would look good. If we, you know, we're getting to a point where every fucking president

is getting like, oh, you know, did Russia do, did Russia help you? It's trying to get you elected, blah, blah, blah. And it's just, none of it matters. everything's fake, everything's bullshit. It's worse than it's ever been, sure.

But like, just power is power at the end of the day. So we need a rubber stamp. We need to go back to the age of rubber stamps. So you get the Catholic Pope. There's rubber stamp wherever it is. God's, you know, whatever happens, you just have the Pope there to go, God did this. God made this happen.

Shut your pig mouth. I think it's nice. Right? I think it's nice. Scott Galloway says, skills like computer science and mandarin are no longer relevant here's what kids need instead about scott galway shuts his fucking mouth this guy from that stupid podcast for keros swisher i don't care what he says this guy's a piece of shit someone told me to watch his podcast

you might not even know who he is that's good but i've heard it on it was just the annoying scumbag i ever heard my life with the a i boom honestly msn this i i don't usually prep my show by fucking reading this msn these things caught my eye as i was was like you know starting to record but these are all just bullshit articles i'm i'm i'm just going to tune out no more no more of this bullshit um but he ma'am's you know it's all right i wouldn't necessarily recommend it it's fine um but it's straight you know what's going on the reflecting pool it does seem like some people may i mean i look are people actually tearing apart you know chunks of the reflective foot maybe um that should be i i don't know why you

don't have guards there we did we've been talking about this for days now are they doing it or not do you have security you i mean what was wrong with this fucking thing in the first place just pour some pour some bleach in the goddamn water no one should be in there you know it's done for us gump when fucking running through the reflective pool in uh in forest gump and like he should have been shot for that I don't care that he was even an American veteran at that point Right, I think he he would Jenny him and fucking running in the pool That that pool was made for heroes and I'm gonna have sniper Literally sitting sitting on Lincoln's head in the Lincoln Memorial

And he was shot for us gump half that movie wouldn't exist Just saying I'm just saying I'm just saying we don't need this It's all very It's a wild time. Now, what is the summer mean to you? What is the summer mean to all? I mean, I have barbecue, right?

We moved recently. We bought a barbecue last summer. It's just, it's, you need a gasoline barbecue. This whole thing, if you're going to have a, it's, it's no good having an apartment with these fucking bricats. I tried this shit. You fucking, you get the stupid, um, what do they call it? The, the, the, the urn.

It's a big, big piece of, a metal that you throw the briquettes into and you and you heat them up with a like a piece of lighter uh you know stir lighter and like you get the briquettes hot and then you pour them into into the it's too much smoke for a balcony in the city right you just need to get you need one these gasoline propane fucking barbecues uh if you're at the middle of a field sure start a fire pit that we all need to move in the country the city shit is for the birds although you know i mean i'm enjoying myself you know all sorts of grie foods you know that's what that's what life is about different types of fetid cheese is that is that

what i've been missing no but yeah we need to you know go out in the woods uh go out in the water start a barbecue we should all start like a fucking barbecue meats club um where we it's not look burgers are great um hot dogs are fun and you know and but we should all challenge each other to like i I don't mean like fucking Texas barbecue. I mean just like, hey, why don't you barbecue a cabasa this week? You should, you should have to change your fucking meat every week. There was steak. Do, do, do it do some snake.

I've never eaten snake. I would try it. I'm sure it's good. That's like, honestly, the sun on your back. The smell of fucking, you know, fire, smoking meat. I don't mean, like, a smoker, but smokers are good. I mean like but the smell of smoke coming off a grill. That's that's what tethers you to reality.

All right. The Pope can control what he wants to. And Trump can fucking, you know, accuse. He's probably, he's going to be putting people in jail for, stay away from the reflective pool. That's my, that's my advice. Because whether or not he's, whether or not anyone actually sabotaged it, this guy he had, who like built it does seem shady.

Um, seems like a gun on duck right you got this weird guy who like what they do they painted the bottom of the fucking seabed i don't even know they painted it blue and now it's leaking into the fucking water supply it seems crazy they're gonna start putting people in jail for this shit and even if they didn't do it even if it's you know they're gonna find reasons to put you in stay away from dc this summer stay away from cities this summer Don't we're gonna go you know Disney World for what let's all fuck why don't you go go out in the woods Make a fucking tent make a shelter like I did that year I cut my thumb open and my thumb was just fucking bleeding out right For a fucking you know and I was going crazy

I told you the story I cut my thumb open making a fucking shelter for emergency preparedness merit badge the wilderness survival merit pitch at camp I was cutting open a garbage bag and uh you know it just whatever I'm not going to tell the story over and over and over again how I cut my thumb open but 19 stitches um but you know I still I still feel like you know it's a matter pride because I built the shelter

I built it or I tried to I endeavor to survive in the wilderness um so you know look say la vie i guess you'd say just get out there and fucking enjoy yourself um world cup is big who love this world cup i was a bar watching world cup

and um you know i ran did they win i think i ran one it was tied with uh norway or some bullshit i don't know i can't get into i mean i enjoy watching it I saw a fucking messy get a hat trick for the first time it doesn't have the same sting as Joe DiMaggio does it but not much does

not much does maybe this summer we should all venture to learn like a art we did in camp we had arts and crafts and I used to make baskets in arts and fucking camp that's what I'm going to do next week I'm gonna try and do this I'm gonna try to go to Michaels that store that sells all that shit, the pains and stuff.

I'm going to try and get basket weaving stuff. And I'm going to do a nice basket. I'm going to make my own basket. You get reeds. If I remember correctly, you get reeds. You wet them. And then you weave them in and out of like another, of a kind of a core.

Right? Well, you put reeds out. I don't know. And then you weave them together. And you make a kind of, weird little baskety things like they have Americans would what that's maybe what we're missing arts and crafts learn to sew learn to make a sausage learn to make a fucking pickle why don't you make your own pickles I made quick pickles a couple years ago they came out

not bad but make your own full-on pickles it's a we need to get back to nature to art You know, to enjoying the fruits of our bounty. One of America's first and best monster movies just got the upgrade it deserves. What is the beast shall rain over the earth? What is this? A little girl wanders out of the New Mexico desert, mute with shock, her face frozen in absolute terror.

That's the opening of the most iconic sci-fi film in the 50s, them, which team of local police officers and scientists discovered that a rampage and colony of ants mutated to the size of elephants by atomic testing is on the March to Los Angeles I'm gonna watch this

we'll see I mean I just kind of happen upon this but it could be a nice thing right it could be a fucking nice uh that's a scary look at that thing

this is a scary fucking thing a goddamn aunt if you were face to face with an ant like that and the aunt was sentient and said hey I want you to betray your country Are you down?

You ready? What would you do? Think about this. It's one thing to be like, oh, I'll let you torture me, right? I'll let you waterboard me.

I'll let you fucking throw acid on me. Look how crazy that ant looks. Would you let that ant torture you? Would you let that ant, you know, be a piece of shit to you. Treat you like shit. It's fucking dangerous.

It's fucking fur. It's fucking hair. I mean, there's nothing worse than ant hair. The hair of a bug. we need to get out there more we need to get out into a fucking a mode of uh we take our country back from these animals you know i love my cat but i mean if i if i got if some aunt try to grab me and like milk me and fucking like fist me you know it would be terrifying i'd fucking you know i'd be

i'd be i'd be mortified to be terrified but also i mean it'd be a little erotic i guess i mean imagine of an amp like fucking put you with me oh so i saw the fucking butterfly effect by the way that's right blend on this lucy recommended the butterfly effect to me um you've ever seen this butterfly effect i'm like no i came up in i think on jeopardy also the actual butter maybe the actual butterfly effect if you haven't seen it there's zero butterfly effects in the assing country film the butterfly effect there were the it's basically about this kid who has memory problems his dad's in a mental institution and he has memories

he just kind of blacks out and he blacks out at one point and goes to his friend's house and he's in the middle of like a child porn movie that Eric Stoltz is making and then like that happens and then like they also do some traumatic stuff

they use a firecracker and like and I don't want to spoil it but you know someone gets hurt someone very young and other shit and then like so but he basically just like if he reads his journals he's able to go back in time and like imagine like wow what if I stopped a guy from doing the child porn movie that was in and like and then like things change but it's not like a bunch of things change it's a ripple effect it's just yeah the obvious thing that would be different it's different

no one ever told asking creature is a terrible actor I mean I know he wrote like a fucking letter trying to get his friend who got convicted of like rape or whatever, uh, less prison time. But yeah, I guess he's just a good friend. But I'm not going to, I'm not going to shit on them for that per se necessarily. It might be, it might not be the best thing in me, a cootness. But he was in that Steve Jobs movie and he looks like Steve Jobs. He sounded like Steve Jobs, much more than Michael Fastbender did. And he was fucking terrible.

He said, no, he has no fucking soul. And he was terrible in this fucking, you know, butterfly effect movie. I don't know. I'll make a real butterfly effect movie where it's like, you know, I become the Pope and then all of a sudden, ants run the world. And the mystery is how does it happen, right? That's what you want from a Butterfly Effect movie.

How does Ray come becoming the Pope and convincing France to give him a nuclear bomb lead to ants? I guess because the ants, I guess the end. they just think all these movies are like oh the atomic bomb makes everything bigger but in reality it just makes people dead or have cancer it makes cancer tumors bigger it doesn't tend to make your body bigger unless your body's made every one big tumor but you know we live and we learn uh so yeah it was a fun it's been a fun opening the summer it's a nice salvo and uh You know, just try to just try to do one thing a week.

An arts and craft, cook a new sausage. Make your own sauce. Like, do something. That way at the end of the summer, you can feel like it did something. This is my advice. I'm going to try and do it. We're all going to keep summer journals. Go get that marble notebook and start keeping track of what you do this.

You still have time. Tomorrow is the beginning of summer. It hasn't happened yet. We still have time. don't waste it all you have left is arbitrary timelines right that's all we have left to rely on so just keep track and then in a few months time you can look back and go hey so money doesn't my money has no value and the economy is on the brink and more is on on the rise and i've been drafted and i'm in china and i'm in afghanistan and i'm fighting virtual wars across five timelines

but I learned how to weave a basket. It's not all bad, right? You just bake lemonade out of lemons. Thanks so much for tuning in. Enjoying, enjoy your weekend.
