macro dosing. It is Tuesday. It is April 19th. That means that you already did your taxes yesterday.
Congratulations. Billy, did you do your taxes? Yep. Big T. Yeah. It's theft. So is. Is it technically like
if I owe taxes in a specific state, if I never go to that state, do I have to pay them? Like parking
tickets? Uh, for legal purposes, yes. But I would like to see you not pay it.
Are you thinking about just stiffing West Virginia?
Yeah, I'm never going back to West Virginia.
West Virginia is probably, like, the most commonly used state when it comes to this exact loophole that Billy's talking about.
Like, when am I going to be back in West Virginia again?
I won $100,000 on ponies.
Do I really have to pay all the taxes on that?
I would say, yeah, you probably do.
Yeah, I'm going to do it.
Also, Billy, if you don't, you're literally taking money out of coal miners' mouths.
I know.
I'm going to pay it, but just like...
I eat the money down there.
yeah it's yeah it's not like you're taking money out of like greenwich connecticut right you're
definitely gonna pay i i have paid those taxes coal keeps the lights on billy i know clean coal is that
is that we're talking about clean coal clean coal i don't know there's that whole movement for clean
coal remember that when i was like this is clean coal it's new coal burning technologies which is
cleaner than how we used to burn coal i think it's just a great name yeah you can just call anything clean
Yeah, but I owe a bunch of, I actually, I have a, like, ticket for jumping a subway turnstile in a city, and I've never paid it.
So I'm probably wanted in that city.
I'm not going to say which one.
I'm going to guess New York City.
No.
They don't give you a ticket for that here.
Are you kidding?
It was a metro.
Well, me and Big Tier are the only ones that ever actually pay for subway rides.
I pay for my subway rides.
Doesn't sound like it.
No, but that was in a, it was in a country that's not America, and I'm never going back to that country again.
Italy.
Nope.
Trying to think of what other countries Billy's been in.
Spain.
Nope.
Just, we don't have to do the guess again.
The way you said metro makes me think it's England.
Ukraine.
They need the money more than anyone, Billy.
I know.
No, it's not that.
But, uh.
Yeah, it's the underground.
It's clearly the underground then.
Billy is wanted in England.
We'll get around to that, actually.
I might be an international fugitive.
Yeah, Interpol is chasing you down right now.
Come get me.
We got a lot to talk about today.
Before we get into the show, I do feel like we should clean up a little bit from last week's nanodosing.
Billy and Big T had some words.
Things were said on this show.
I personally don't like taking sides in this, but I do want to say Big T.
I don't think that you should speak to Billy in those ways.
And Billy, I think that you were a little on edge after.
getting thoroughly emasculated on last Monday's show and so you were really looking for blood
but I'd like I'd like you too to to hash it out figure out what the issue is so we can move on
because you're both valued members of the show I did want to point out that the Big T issued an
ultimatum which was a crazy ultimatum did that even air no oh we cut that out oh I didn't know that we
cut it out but at the end of the show Big T said if Billy's here
on Monday, I'm not. And it was just a wild ultimatum. Like, usually you have to have some significant
leverage to pull an ultimatum. Now, you are a valued member of the show. But it wasn't, it wasn't,
it wasn't meant as leverage. Look, like I was, I was prepared to leave. Just a matter. But look,
yet you didn't. Big, I mean, I didn't really have a choice. Look, this is what it is. Big T. I've,
you know, I thought we had a great relationship. I don't know what happened after the whole.
chick fillet cannibalism incident things went off the rail i just would like to say like i have no
problem with you it's just i don't like when we're having a debate a discussion like we do on
the show and you go ad hominin that's because i was thinking what set me off in that situation
and it was that we were debating in the moment i was so wound up i couldn't really understand
what set me off but was that we were debating baseball instead of actually talking about how
you know baseball takes this much uh uh athleticism not athleticism we're talking about
endurance endurance this much this and then you i think what i don't know if it's specific but you then
made an ad hominid attack on me being an idiot or something when making a common point about baseball
that was not that's why i didn't that's i i understand i apologize for what i said i i didn't speak
to you any differently than i would have like anyone else that i was having
an argument like that with. I was like, oh, this guy. Like, that's ridiculous. Uh, but I, I apologize
for what I said. I forgive you for what you said to me. I don't care. Uh, the person we should
be mad at is him. I know. He's the one me that started the whole thing on purpose. I did not
profit. It's are ganging up on dad. I did not. No, no, you absolutely did. It was.
They're unionizing. They're unionizing. This is not union. While we're, while we're all apologizing
and like saying things we did wrong. I mean, you started the whole thing on purpose. Yeah. I didn't
I didn't start anything on purpose.
I thought it was an interesting discussion about who would last the longest in a survival
situation, then who would be the leader, and then how we would all react to the leader.
And in that moment, what we saw is our own little microcosm of a survival environment on this
podcast, and you guys just turned on each other.
You know the comment you made that started like the whole thing.
I don't recall.
We didn't have to talk about eating other people.
Well, Billy, you did say when we were on that road trip across the country, you usually have
a plan in any situation, like who's going to be the first to be eaten.
Yeah, but those are my intrusive thoughts
And you have to think
Honestly, it could have been anybody
It could have, yes, it could have been anybody
I like the
I like the arguments that happen on the show
I don't want there to be any actual bad blood
I don't think the listeners want that either
And I don't want people to be divided
Like, oh, get Billy off the show
Get Big T off the show
I want you guys both on the show
I think that you guys create a good environment
For the conversations that we have
Do I like to poke the bear a little bit?
Sure, that's kind of my
job mix things up a little bit I don't ever want it to become an actual like bad blood
situation I do think that it's funny to me how the two biggest I don't want to say the
S word the Skels but two people that have both been openly combative against Rico Bosco
I think you guys have a lot more in common with Rico than you really think like the way that
you've reacted has been very similar to how Rico would react in a similar situation
I think you, I think you might look up to him.
Yeah, I think we did have, I mean, we're also, what, 15 years younger than Rico?
Well, we got mad and for a little bit and then like, apologized and we're both here.
Yeah, yeah.
So that's not really, I mean, Rico has, at least Rico follows, he follows through on his threats.
You guys also did just both agree it wasn't your faults, but it was PFTs.
Yeah.
Well, what I said was my fault, what Billy said was his fault.
what PFT did to start the whole thing was his fault.
Listen, what PFT did, he didn't, I don't remember him holding up a sign to you saying,
now say you're going to fuck Billy's course.
You're correct.
But he kind of did.
He kind of did.
Yeah.
I implied it.
There was an implication.
It was heavily implied that I had spoken about, uh, specifically, which I denied because
I didn't.
I actually talked about eating, uh, another member of another podcast specifically.
that wasn't in this podcast.
Dan Katz.
Who did you want to eat?
I forget.
That was the conversation.
Anyway.
Well, Billy, we're good.
Let's all go to the Rangers Capitals game.
Yes.
I will buy you a beer.
It'll be our second hockey game.
Thank you game time.
Yep.
Thank you game.
We've been to a Rangers game prior.
It'll be a good time.
Yeah, it'll be a great time.
I'm looking forward to it.
I'm looking forward to moving forward to the new kind of
gentler macrodosing.
Now that being said, now I want to go directly at Coley.
Let's hear it.
For something you said last week, you laughed at me.
You made me feel this big when I said Kyrie Irving.
You are that big.
Is it top, shut the fuck them.
I set you up for that.
Now I'm mad at myself.
I know what I was doing.
I'm trying to divide this podcast.
No, you said Kyrie Irving definitively, like more than definitively,
was not a top 10 player in the NBA, probably not even.
Oh, let's back it up.
You said he was comfortably top five.
That's what I laughed back.
That's just not true.
I think that when Kyrie Irving is playing like he played on Sunday,
he's my favorite player to watch in the NBA right now.
He's incredible to watch.
And I got Celtics fans tell me I'm too easy on Kyrie.
The rest of the NBA says I'm just like another hater.
So I know I'm calling it right down the middle.
That's like how I know.
I said he wasn't top 15 because that's how a lot of people determine all
NBA and I know he won't be all NBA.
That's what I was saying.
It's because he didn't play this year.
Whose fault was that?
Yeah, we're talking about his play on the court.
We're not talking about like-
Play on the court was limited by his brain.
Well, New York State.
Again,
Listen, Red Sox are going to have like me and three other people
playing next week in Toronto.
Like, these are the rules.
We know the rules.
I don't know, Coley.
I feel like-
Well, let's talk about his play.
Let's talk about his play literally yesterday, PFT.
Yep.
Why?
And then that's lose that game.
because Marcus Smart
tapped into the good crazy part of his brain
so Marcus Smart
we're talking about this a little bit on part of my take
but he's he's insane he's nuts
and sometimes if you're crazy
it can lend itself to doing great things
sometimes it's it's like
what's his name Rembrandt right
either he's painting amazing
watercolors or whatever or he's cutting his own ear off
one of the two yesterday
we had Marcus Smart paint a masterpiece
on that last play
because everybody knew
that he's crazy enough
to attempt that shot
at the end of the game
and then he pulled it down
and then made an insane pass
that I don't think
he would ever expect to make
nobody expects to have that play
happen at the very end.
It was a dumb,
it was borderline
a dumb play that he made.
But it worked out really well.
I don't think anybody else
makes that pass
except for Marcus Smart
and obviously you can't argue
with the result,
which was the Celtics win
at the very last second.
But you got to see
like the good part of Marcus Smart's crazy brain on that play. I don't think that you can't really
blame that on Kyrie on the last play. It happened in a split second and he tried to reach around
and poke the ball out, but I don't know what else you thought that he should do in that moment.
He definitely fouled him. I agree there. But even before that, he dribbled the air out of the
ball and panicked and then toss it to Kevin Durant for a bad shot. Like they could have put the game
away if he didn't panic. They also went two for one so fast the Celtics did that the net.
could have gone two for one on the other end too.
You would never do that because you only had a one-point lead
and so you don't want to give the ball back to the team.
But they took that two-for-one so fast.
I don't think that you can't blame Kyrie for that loss.
Kyrie was unconscious.
He was awesome, especially in the second half.
Kyrie was incredible in the second half.
And there's he's one of the few players in the league.
I know he scored before he's even decided to shoot yet.
like he when he had the ball in the corner against jalen and he you knew he wasn't going to dribble
you knew he was just going to wait for that split second to go up those are the kind of shots
he can make that you can see coming like durant has his pull-ups you know those are going in
100% of the time but kairi it's like oh he hasn't even shot yet i'm already hanging my head because
i know he's already scored but he also is terrible at defense which you saw in that last play
and like I don't consider him a choke artist
because we've seen too much evidence to the contrary
but he choked that game away on the last
the net's last possession like that was horrible basketball
I don't think he's if they had a real coach
maybe they could have directed him to do anything
other than dribble the air out of the ball
I don't think he's that bad at defense
I think you're overblowing terrible
he played the Celtics haunted him the whole second half
that's why we scored it will well you scored it will
because like the Nets team defense as a whole is not very good
but we targeted one guy specific
and it was him.
I don't think that you can,
you need to walk back your take
of him not being a top 15 player.
That's all I'm saying.
Or at least give me,
give me an apology dance.
I want you to give me an apology dance, Coley.
My argument is that he's not top 10.
Why I said top 15 was because I know he won't be all NBA this year,
and that's 15 players.
I disagree.
I think that can I make a counterpoint?
And I agree with you, Coley,
but all NBA is by position.
So like you can,
I'll immediately.
counter this by the fact that they're now allowing to vote Joe L. Embed as like a shooting guard this
year. I mean, yeah, they've gotten Lucy Goosey with it, but it's still like, you could be
theoretically one of the 10, 15 best person in the NBA, and if you're the fourth best point
guard, then you're not going to be on it. Well, no, because there's two guard spots regardless
for each. Right, but you get what I'm saying. Sure, but we both agree he's the seventh best
guard per that probably yeah yeah so i i mean and there's a lot of really good bigs right now jason
taitam outplayed him yesterday too which was the crux of uh or not the crux it was part of that argument
as well i still think karee easily top 15 i would put him top 10 maybe not top five i'll walk
that one back he's certainly not top five i'll walk that one back but he's somewhere six through
ten do we want to list him out i'm okay with that all right
Okay, KD.
Let's go with the easy ones.
Oh, let's go with the easy ones.
Let's not even leave his team first.
Kevin Durant.
All right, Kevin Durant.
Steph Curry.
Okay, I thought that would be more contentious, but I agree, yes.
Yeah, no, I mean, Steph Curry is maybe the best shooter in the history of the NBA.
That's also true.
Yeah.
LeBron.
I'll put LeBron up there.
That one's close, but I'm okay with that.
Let's see.
Who else would I put up there?
Yokich.
Yochich
Embed
Yonis
Janus
Who's better than Kairi left out there
I mean
I guess Luca
Yep
I thought I was going to have to make
Harder arguments for most of the people
We've already listed
And then I would put Kyrie
Let me
Let me pull up the league
But see now that's not fair
I'm doing it off the top of my head
Hardin and you're doing the original.
Kyrie is definitely better than James Hardin.
I don't have a problem with that.
I don't have a problem with that at all.
What about your,
aren't you a big Jimmy Bucket supporter?
I like,
yeah,
I like Jimmy Butler.
I like how much of a dog he is,
but I feel like he's probably like,
the original argument on part of my take
was that Jimmy Butler was not a top 15 player
and this was in 2016.
I stand by,
I think I was right,
like you looked up all the list that everybody would make online
and he would always be number 15 or number 16 at that point.
I think he's probably number 11 right now.
That feels like a good place for Jimmy.
Jimmy Butler?
Yeah.
11, 12.
He just can't shoot at all.
He does, and it's a good point.
He does have that dog in him.
Yeah.
He's like mean, which I love.
He's a mean guy.
He'd probably hate me.
The clip of Bam talking to JJ Reddick about him last week.
And JJ was just like, he's such a fucking asshole.
and Bam decides
die and laugh
and like I don't
I don't know
how anyone
ever has the ability
to play with Jimmy Butler
for more than like
a half season
right
I mean I
you could go back
and say like
Dame is up there
but I think it's
no question
I think that Kyrie's better
based on what he's done
can I
can I do a little
a little blind resume test
for you
oh yeah I love blind resumes
this is this is also a guard
okay the first guy is Hitler
no no okay
so I'm going to give you
Kyrie's numbers
27.4 points a game
4.4 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 55% effective field goal percentage, 21.4 P.E.R.
Okay.
This other guard, 28.4 points a game, 3.7 rebounds, 9.7 assists,
54% effective field goal percentage.
They're both 38% from 3, and this guy's a 25.4 PER, about 4 points higher.
Would you say that player?
I would agree T. Young's better, Big T.
That is T.
Yeah.
Speaking of defense, we're just not going to talk about
Trey Young's defense, are we?
Trey on defense is not great.
Who would you rather have one stop, Coyle?
Trey Young or Kyrie?
On defense, yeah, we're going to take Kyrie.
Yeah.
I would take literally anyone else.
Trey's so fragile that him attempting to play defense
could potentially cause an offensive foul.
Karee will traditionally try and guard it and just get blown by.
Okay.
I'd still take Kyrie over Trey
Who's a better dribbler?
They don't show that in the stats
I would also tell you a guy with pretty similar numbers
is John Morant
I was going to bring up Jha
Jaya was like an MVP candidate most of the year
Yeah that that's fair
I'm still in the mode where I have to be reminded
about John Morant being like an elite superstar now
because he's still so young
and that's like Kyrie has done it for a longer time
he's proven a track record
John Morant still like a question
mark we don't know what he's going to do in the playoffs but also proven it
mostly is the number two when kairy's been the number one
the best case scenario was getting embarrassed by the bucks in the first round
that's the only time he's made the playoffs is the number one option that's fair
but also that i feel like the team around kairi then was not like if kairi was on the celtics
right now you would say they'd be we'd be okay they'd be okay probably better than they are
right now, right?
The human element factor is so tough to bring in with them.
Like, you don't know.
Like, just the talent, yeah, it would be hard to dismiss.
But like, I don't know.
I really don't know.
All right.
I still stand by my take.
Kyrie Irving top 10 player in the NBA when he's on the court.
We didn't even talk about like Booker, Booker's cold.
I'm sure if Rusillo was here, he'd do an hour on why Chris Paul's better.
Yeah, I mean, Chris Paul, they play a different game, but Chris Paul is, I think, like, he's awesome to watch. He's a lot of fun. I just keep waiting for something to happen like in the playoffs. I want Chris Paul to win a ring in theory, but also it is fun to be like, this guy, no rings. Yeah, it is. And he's like, just such an asshole.
Him and Jimmy Butler both just such dickheads. Also, I got to take my guy Blake Griffin's side.
So I'm on Blake.
He's, what about him?
Just the Blake Chris Paul beef.
Oh, okay.
I thought you were putting Blake in the top ten.
I was like, not, not anymore, sadly.
I'm a big Blake guy.
When Blake Griffin is in midair, he's a top ten player in the NBA.
From the, yes.
From the point where, like, he's reached the apex of his jump,
I don't think that you can name ten players better than him.
No.
No.
Bill, you have anything to add to the NBA debate?
Trey Young's just got huge real estate in New York's head
That still echoes today
They're chanting at the Yankee game
Oh really? Yeah
Yeah they were
Yeah they were
Yeah they were chained at the Yankee game
I was there I was just like what the fuck
Like it was one game
There's one game
And that was a very very funny thing to look back at
In retrospect
A one win that the Knicks got at home
In the playoffs
Yeah
And they had a riot
The city rioted
Yeah
People should be talking about that
Instead of talking about
Minnesota fans being pumped up
for a play-end game.
Yeah.
The city of New York rioted when they won one playoff game.
Dude, New York is starved for basketball success right now or any, like, baseball, like,
in my time period, I've only seen one championship, uh, three championships.
Man, that's tough.
That's a lot.
Billy really was born at the worst possible time.
Yeah.
No, actually, it was way more than that now that I think about it was five.
Yeah, but I'll remember.
The Yankees won a shitload, right?
I know, yeah, never mind.
So the, of the last 20 years, the New York Knicks have the exact same amount of playoff wins as the Seattle Supersonics.
Not the Supersonics and the Thunder, just the Supersonics.
And how many is that?
I believe it's four.
They had that one series in like, or five, five, sorry.
Yeah, against the Celtics.
11 or 12 was it?
I was in 17th grade.
That was the last time I really paid it.
attention to the Knicks was during that series against the Celtics when you had Mello,
Kevin Garnett yelling about Honey Nut Cheerios, and then Lynn Sanity, and then everything sort of
just, it wasn't even worth following anymore. How many, how many playoff series have the Knicks
won? That's it. In 20 years. Just one? Just the one against the Celtics. So, so the Knicks have as
many, they've advanced in the playoffs exactly as many times since 2000 as the Washington Redskins
commanders and football team.
That's very sad.
It's since like 03 or 0, I think it's since 02 because the Allen Houston like 01 team won a round.
Okay.
So 2000, they got to the Eastern Conference finals.
01 they lost in the first round.
04 they lost in the first round.
11 they lost in the first round.
12 they lost in the first round.
13, they got to the second round.
And then 21, they lost in the first round.
Well, you know, Tucker Carl,
Carlson's making people sun their balls.
He is.
Good, good transition, Billy.
I saw that video.
If you haven't seen the Tucker Carlson, the, what is it called?
The End of Men or something like that.
I recommend pausing whatever you're doing right now and going to watch the video.
It's, I can't get enough of it.
It's one of the funniest videos I've ever seen.
He's, he's lamenting the fact that society is no longer creating real men, true alphas, like red meat eating, muscular hair on their
chest caveman alpha males like Tucker Carlson that has that has ceased to be a part of the modern
landscape and he created a video which is I'm trying to figure out what he's getting at it's just
a lot of pictures of shirtless guys working out so the basis of it is that in the past you know
several generations the average testosterone level has apparently decreased as a baseline and
you know they're saying how like this is probably caused
by numerous factors.
Alex Jones talks about them.
It's this whole idea and ideology of thinking.
But the thing is, his solution is that, like, you know, he was talking to this guy about
this phenomenon.
And this guy's solution is to use infrared technology on your nuts.
Okay.
Which is basically, like, just shining a red light on your nuts.
And I sort of get the process of thinking of that, like, this exposure to light will cause
vitamin D synthesis, something that we're all seen to have way less of because we're all
inside all the time.
Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to a lot of mental health issues.
And honestly, you should be taking vitamin D.
I take 10,000 I use every day personally.
So I get that thinking.
Subcutaneously, do you inject it?
No, no, no, intramuscular.
No, no.
No, you can take vitamin D orally.
Okay.
Which is.
That's pretty sick.
Yeah.
So testosterone production is decreased, and Tucker is figuring out that the way to solve this is by exposing your nuts to the sun.
Right.
Remember when yoga people were talking about, like, sunning your perennium a couple years ago?
Yeah.
Turns out that everyone that laughed at those, you're really the closed-minded ones.
I just feel like it's like you're not actually, your testicles are not coming in contact with any of the sun.
It's the skin outside.
So in my opinion, like, this is just a recipe for a recipe for like,
skin cancer, in my opinion. That and also just a lot of people getting arrested for indecent
exposure. Well, if you're doing the privacy of your own home, I guess. Yeah, I've got another
solution for it. What? And this kind of goes back to the vitamin D spending more time outside.
We are all cooped up in office spaces all day long. What about recess? Why don't we, why,
why don't employers give you recess every day? Imagine that. If there was like an office building,
let's say you work at a cube, you have a basketball court outside, maybe a kickball field.
you've got, I don't know, like a blacktop setup, you can play four square, just like let people go outside for 45 minutes a day and just have fun outside for a little bit. Why don't we do recess? I mean, don't like the millennial lib tech companies do that? I don't know. They've got like full gyms and all, you know, everything you described. But that's still inside. Yeah. Why not? I don't know. Google has like a billion acre campus or whatever with all sorts of stuff. They're doing pretty well.
Well, I'm just saying
monetarily, they're destroying the fabric of our society
But yeah, they're doing great
Yeah
I'm just saying like recess
What's
Does that make me a lib
Because I feel like people should get outdoors and exercise
Sounds like me and Tucker Carlson
Have a lot in common
No, I was saying those types of companies are doing that
Okay
Also I get that people are using the refrain
That tech companies are all liberal
I feel like most of them are very libertarian
Very libertarian
Really?
Yeah.
I feel like they claim to be, but then they give all their money to, like, right-wing organizations.
So who's to say?
Yeah, I think that they just, they give money to people that they think will let them make the most money.
Right.
Now, are you talking about the employees of the tech companies that, you probably read in the news, like, oh, Netflix had a bunch of employees walk out because of Dave Chappelle.
No, I'm talking about Twitter, like actively silencing opinions it doesn't like.
like the the hunter biden laptop thing not even that like um i mean yet yes that like saying this is
misinformation and not allowing you sure it turns out it's 100% true um or like the baby do you know what
that is yeah so you know that account is suspended right i think they should have been suspended a long
time ago just for not being funny okay but like they're suspended for uh i forget exactly what
the tweet was i believe it was um someone gave an award for
woman of the year to a transgender woman and they said uh they gave the same person man of the year
okay and twitter was like you either have to delete this tweet or we're leaving your account suspended
and they could have just uh deleted the tweet themselves if they didn't like it like but they
chose not to uh but that's not even that's not even a good example like they no it's not
they remove things that they don't like yeah i was shadow banned by the way on instagram last week
this is real oh why people people think that shadow banning's not a thing there was something
weird that happened because i uploaded the uh the clip of craig robinson singing purple rain
while i played it on guitar when he was on part of my take and i put it on an instagram and then i
checked like a couple days later as i was scrolling through my feet to find something and it had
I think it had like 250 views like just views I'm not talking about likes or anything like that
250 views how did you upload what did you upload it as a real or as a post I think it was just a post
was it under a minute I believe it was about a minute exactly if it was a minute and it wasn't a real
I don't know if you were shadow band or if the algorithm just like they won't jack post unless it's a real
Well, that's, yeah, so the algorithm is akin to, like, a lot of people complain, like, I've been shadow ban, but in reality, the algorithm wasn't in your favor. That's what I'm getting at here. It's like, obviously, like, there's nobody at Instagram that's like, I don't like this song. And they're not letting you go out to the masses. For whatever reason, it got tripped up in something that they have like a formula for. And they're like, okay, we're not going to, but it was just like shocking that, like, 250 views or whatever. It's just like, it's very clearly something was going on there that that was out of the ordinary. But then.
And then, like, two days later, the views went like way, way, way, way, like, people started to see it all of a sudden.
So I don't know what that was about.
But I understand Big T's perspective that, like, Twitter, sometimes they, they ban things or they delete posts that they think are misinformation.
And then later it comes out that it actually was true.
And it's not even just Twitter.
It's a tricky thing for them because they also have to walk the fine line of if there is somebody out there that's like calling for violence or posting somebody's home address.
you have to delete that right and then you have to delete certain things for you know
if it's like targeted in any way or like a call for violence and then it's like where do you draw the
line i think that twitter's still figuring out exactly like how to do that and sometimes they
they put their foot in their mouth well like remember back when uh uh uh chris long uh was said something
that he wished i died of dehydration yeah and then he got blocked not blocked but he got his
account suspended and he thought I did it to him when really just Twitter just was banning everybody
at that point. A lot of people were saying that you were responsible for it. I was not responsible
for it. There's much more worse comments on my Twitter. Yeah. And I hope you die of dehydration.
But I think they're just trying to figure out that censorship. But, you know, there is hope.
There is a freedom of speech advocate who's trying to rescue the whole situation.
So either Elon is like a real freedom of speech advocate or he's just like,
like a great troll. I don't understand how the richest person in the world taking over
the most, well, like Facebook is used more than Twitter, but in, you know, Twitter's a very
important platform of speech. Has he's been able to champion himself as like a free, I'm way against
that also. Yeah, it's kind of weird, isn't it? It's like, okay, we're sick of the most,
literally the wealthiest person in the world being persecuted. So we're,
It's kind of becomes shorthand.
He's got great PR.
At times he does.
Other times, like, when he's naming his child, like your quadratic formula or whatever,
then everyone's like, what the fuck?
Elon taking over Twitter is, it's become shorthand.
Like, if you're a conservative, a lot of times online, you feel like most of the conservatives
I've seen are like, this is a great thing.
Go Elon.
And then most of the liberals that I've seen are like, this is, this is akin to Nazi Germany.
I'm not most the liberals are saying
I have seen a couple instances
where people are freaking out about Elon taking over
But what's the difference between Jeff Bezos
owning the Washington Post and Elon Musk
owning Twitter? There's not a lot of
different like there's definitely some parallels there
It's 100% and it well I guess a big difference
would be like Jeff Bezos says that
he is hands off the editorial side
Now if there's like a deep investigation
Into something that he's personally doing
I'm sure that he would be able to
Like try to silence that
But Elon is openly out
advocate, be like, yes, I'm going to be determining what's going to happen.
He's saying, like, yes, I will be very involved in it.
Right, but I think he's going to be involved in it in being hands off.
I think that's his whole.
I also don't think Jeff Bezos bought the Washington Post because the Washington Post was
writing bad things about Jeff Bezos, like how Elon's getting silenced by Twitter.
So he's like, I might as well just buy it.
Well, Elon's not getting silenced by Twitter.
He just uses it a lot.
He also, it's funny because you see, like, Elon trying to take it over.
And then a lot of people finding out in real time how.
the SEC works and how like any sort of stock transaction actually happens and then now since they
rejected his initial offer everyone's like well that now there's going to be a lawsuit and then
Twitter's going to be fucked because they didn't do what was in the best fiduciary uh interest of
their stockholders in reality like you can I think that there's probably a case that Twitter can make
that not having Elon would be better for the company because he's trying to get it and uh at
what, $54 a share?
Yeah, but Twitter.
No one really knows what the valuation of Twitter will be in like six months anyways.
So you can make the case that'll be higher.
You can make the case to be lower.
But Twitter, the company will be fine.
It's the board members who can get sued and in trouble.
And they're just employees.
They don't have much stake in the company at all.
They're appointed by the shareholders to act in the fiduci, the word I can't pronounce,
but the financial interest of the company.
It's the nuclear option.
Finuclear.
but by that means that means that all those board members did not act in the financial
interest of the company because 54 I think the price of a Twitter stock price I think
it's way under 54 so like even a sick yeah it's 48.15 currently it's only gone up in the
past day so in the last five days it's gone down from 40 yeah so them doing it 54 is like
the stock price of Twitter was never, ever expected to go over 54 in a short term period.
So like, I mean, it was at, it wasn't like the 60s and 70s like six or eight months ago, I think.
It was high.
It's just impossible to say like that this is the best offer that they're going to be able to get for the company.
Now, I'm not a person that like sees Elon taking over Twitter and I'm like, well, I'm logging off.
I'm done.
Like he's, it's probably not going to make that much of a difference in my day.
today. I just, as a general rule of thumb, don't like the idea of a very rich person taking over
anything, really, because then they can just bend it to their world. Like to Big T's point,
I don't think that it's good that Jeff Bezos, he owns the Washington Post. I don't think
that's a good thing at all. I think that we should be able to agree on that. But I don't know,
it's just become shorthand for like a culture war that I don't think is, I think a lot of people
just are getting whipped up into a frenzy by it when it's probably not going to make that much
difference on your day-to-day lives.
But, like, for example, like, hypothetically, one of us could get banned for an off-color tweet.
Yep. True.
But, like, hypothetically.
Yes. No, yeah. I mean, correct.
So, but we don't, like, we don't have a right to post on Twitter. That's the thing.
And I know some people are saying Twitter has become, like, the de facto town square.
That's like a phrase that I've heard repeatedly.
Musk is the one saying that.
I don't really know what a town square is.
Like, are we, like, walking around?
Is this, like, a Renaissance fair?
The forum?
And one person's got a tall box, and so he's gathering a crowd around.
It becomes very tricky because Twitter's still a very young company.
It's been around for, what, it started 2007, I think.
So about 16 years.
It's still, like, a very young company.
And there will be another company that comes around in the next 20 years that kind of takes
the place to Twitter.
But how do you identify what that company is and when do they?
become treated as like a free speech zone as opposed like if you just start like big t if you were to
start uh just like a a message board or whatever about the braves and then somewhere were to go on
there and be like uh a kunia ruined this team we were better without him last year and then you ban that
person because it's your website you're allowed to do that right sure if you don't like them at what
point would your hypothetical braves website become so big that now you're no longer allowed to
any sort of like editorial control over what gets posted on well i mean you're saying when they
are exercising their rights to ban opinions like where do you draw the line okay this is the same thing
where do you draw the line at some point someone decides this is a public utility and they're
acting as a publisher rather than a conduit of other people's it's like at what point
opinions at what point did you know a water company like let's say in ancient rome
I feel like it was, I don't know if it was private enterprises who engineered the aqueducts.
Yeah, so the government builds like water facilities and power facilities here in the United States.
So that's why they're controlled, like the taxpayers paid for it.
The taxpayers didn't necessarily pay for Twitter.
Or they, the government gave out private contracts.
Yeah.
So it's just independent companies.
I feel like people are, are, it's a weird problem that we have where there's,
a lot of people that don't trust a private company anymore and think that it should be treated as a public one or a public, like a utility.
But then that opens a lot of things up to a lot of different questions.
Like if any major company that people use all the time doesn't act according to like the wishes of, you know, 40% of public, then that company now has to be taken over by the government as public utility.
I don't know.
I don't know the right answer.
But I think that Elon is, I think he, I honestly think that he's just trolling.
I think that he, what, he got 9%.
Well, I think he wanted them to say no.
Yeah.
He just wanted to make them, like, he made them an offer that they will make money on and he wanted to make them say no to it.
Yeah, and he, he will make money on too.
Like Elon, as a big shareholder of Twitter, he made money off the stock going up just by saying he wanted to buy it.
But the SEC's got to investigate whether.
he because for for example he would have had to to make money off of him buying nine percent stock price going up he would have to sold stock which i think the SEC would then have a legitimate claim to be like he sold the stock to make the money um that's stock manipulate
and then at that point like for example like if he doesn't end up taking over the whole company i don't think the stock price goes up meaning that he's not actually going to
make any money
unless he achieves what he's trying
to do. How is that
illegal, by the way? I know I just said I don't
want the guy taking over Twitter, but now I'm going to take
up for him. If you buy stock
and you just tweet about something
that you bought and like that you like
and then the stock goes up,
that's not your fault. What if someone...
It's insider trading. Only you knew the information
that you were currently purchasing that stock.
What if someone who has like
millions of followers on Instagram does a brand deal
with whoever gets stock as
part of their deal and then tweets like, man, or post on Instagram, like, man, I really love this
product and the stock goes up. That's not, that's the same thing. Yeah. I think that's what happened
on Martha Stewart. It is, no, it's a little bit different what happened with her. She like bought
stocks on a tip. Oh, huh. But, um, that's what Pelosi does. Yeah. Yeah. A lot of people do it.
Pelosi's just very good at timing the market. She's the greatest trader in the history of the stock
market. She is. Uh, yeah, to Big T's point, that's kind of, I think what Elon was doing was he,
he got 9% of all the stock of Twitter
knowing that the price would go up
once he was linked to Twitter like that
and then when he publicly says,
I want to take it over,
the price is going to go up a little bit more
and then he's going to make money off that trade.
I think it might even just be that simple.
Yeah, I don't know.
And he likes people talking about him
being like, oh, what does it mean for America
for Elon Musk to take over Twitter?
He likes having his name in the news
to the point where people are now saying
like Elon Musk should run for president
and he would win
and they're completely forgetting the fact
that I'm like 99.9% sure
he was born in South Africa
to South African parents.
So he's ineligible.
We're definitely going to do a whole episode
on Elon Musk's origin story,
go back years into how exactly
his family was so entrenched.
It's a very interesting background.
I think Elon's just kind of like a shit poster
who happens to be
the world's richest person so he's like just he's fucking with everybody which i almost respect
and i don't think that it's going to make that much of a difference on my day-to-day life
whether or not he takes over over twitter or not now that said i've identified my own
interesting investment opportunity it's another company that's it's been in the public sphere it's
almost like it is the town square the de facto town square for for lunatics at least that's
Info Wars. Infoors just declared bankruptcy today. They filed for Chapter 11 because Alex Jones
could not pay the money in the lawsuit against the Sandy Hook families, which goes back to 2012,
2013 when he was saying all the stuff about it being a false flag, no kids really died,
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And so the families sued him. He's tried to stop the lawsuit many
times in court. I think he offered to each family like $130,000 to make the lawsuit go away.
They said, fuck you. So, yeah, he's just declared bankruptcy. Info Wars declared bankruptcy.
I see this as a very intriguing investment opportunity for myself. I'm looking at the stats right
now. I had one of my finance guys run the numbers on it. Apparently in the last three years,
they brought in real cash, mostly through their sale of hilarious supplements.
wait can you hire me for this for what for like if we like rebrand info wars can I be in charge of
the supplements division the last thing you want to do is rebranded the branding couldn't that's like
buying Nike and being like let's get the check off of it like no no no no we keep info wars the
exact same no I re-image like we're like I agree coolly that that the brand I'm buying the brand
info wars for sure they put in all the work over the years developing the content and
and everything associated with it.
I want to take over Info Wars.
My strategy would be to turn it around.
I'm doing like the reverse Elon Musk.
So I want to buy InfoWars and take it public.
Not like buying Twitter and taking it private.
I want to buy InfoWars, take it public.
But my rule is you're not allowed to discuss politics at all on InfoWars.
I want to make Info Wars great again.
I want to get back because a lot of people that kind of parachuted in in the last six,
seven years to Info Wars, this is not what Alex Jones used to be. He used to be way, way crazier
than he is right now. I'm talking you're allowed to only discuss science, like earth theories,
hollow earth stuff. Hell yeah. Reptillions. You are allowed to discuss whether or not Hillary Clinton
is Satan. I'm okay with that. You can talk about like if a politician smells like sulfur. I'm down
for that. You can, you know, just the Clintons in general. You can still talk about the Clinton family
in general and the royal family and the royal family uh sports all these things are all fair game
on the new info wars yeah athletes um brady smells like sulfur yeah exactly like i want a reptilian
i i want info wars to to stick to sports no i want them to just not do modern politics at all i
don't want you backing candidates i don't want you talking about what's going on in congress right now
i want info wars to get back to the basics and that's getting like like aliens are currently
living amongst us and they control the world's supply of gold. That's what I want info wars to be
again. I think with your help, the public, we can make that happen. So according to the numbers that
I've seen through my finance guy, they've pulled in like $165 million over the last three years.
So I feel like they've, they also claimed in their filing that they have assets of like $50,000.
So they're basically broke either that or Alex Jones's line, which I don't I don't think we can say that about Alex Jones.
I don't want to put the man's character.
They have liabilities in the $1 million to $10 million range.
So I don't know I don't know what they're looking at in terms of an investment to buy InfoWars, but I feel like I could get some cash together.
I feel like I could almost crowdsource this.
I'll put in the line and share the money.
I feel like I could buy Info Wars.
And then Billy, yes, you can run the supplement division.
And can also do like old school vice content?
Yes.
Like send me to fucking.
The moon.
Yes.
To see if it's real.
See if it's cheese.
No, no, no, no, just cheese.
It might be cheese.
We're going to send Billy to the moon and you're going to be able to tell if the moon's real by just like you're going to get on a spaceship and just go full steam ahead at the moon.
And you're either going to go through it because it's hologram or you're just going to crash into it and die.
But that will be proof that it's actually real.
Sweet.
Billy is now Gavin McGinnis.
Like, I want to go search for Bigfoot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, we need to get back to the hilarious bat boy.
Find out what happened to Bat Boy.
Put me in the caves.
Yes.
Sin Billy Underground.
No, but I was actually, like, there's been a couple of fake Bigfoot sightings in the news recently.
And I think that we should make a fake Bigfoot sighting and then like make it go viral, make it super convincing.
Didn't the Nelke boys do that last year?
Oh, they did?
Fuck.
They brought out like a Bigfoot expert and like planted eggs.
And he was like, oh yeah, that's Bigfoot.
And then they were like, no, it's not you fucking moron.
Bigfoot definitely would not lay eggs.
Yeah, Bigfoot does not lay eggs.
One would think.
One would think.
I'm just saying like InfoWor's got two PC over the years.
I feel like we need to bring it back to the old like just shoot first, ask questions later.
probably a bad use of phrase there
but you know what I'm saying
like I want I want info wars
to be fucking insane again
and just like mind bending stuff
not you know not the
not the modern info wars
I want to take it back a little bit
but yeah Billy it is interesting
because the whole Sasquatch thing
there have been like three different sightings
in the last couple weeks and it's funny watching
Billy's reactions to him because Billy's like
that's a fake Sasquatch sighting
he can he can spot a fake
Sasquatch mile away what are you looking for like
What would, what, did you, did you see the one where I said this is definitely the one way I said it was fake?
Yeah.
Well, it was a very obviously fake photoshopped one, but I just need to get some, some legitimacy in the fake community.
Yeah, PFT sent this thing of Sasquatch and Billy said fake, but we'll discuss.
No, that one, the reason why that one's fake is because it's been claimed by multiple states to be like, oh, it's from Ohio, oh, it's from Alabama.
Oh, it's from here.
Oh, it's from there.
so definitely like you know at that point you know it's being spread around for some reason
the pictures are getting around but i mean definitely like fake that that i mean that one's
a hundred percent a guy in a suit but i think we should get into we've spent so long on the
looking for big foot we should start being bigfoot got it like started like coli you're
own coley i think you'd be a great candidate for the guy wearing the suit i'm just saying
I mean, Big T has size 16 feet.
17.
I think we have a pair.
No,
oh my God,
we have the perfect pair of big feet to run around.
Yeah.
No,
it would actually be great.
Like,
yeah,
put Coley in a suit or maybe just don't shave your back for a while.
And then have you and Big T hanging out like by a river somewhere on a tree line.
And it would be like,
look,
we found two big feet.
A husband wife.
Yes.
Dude,
honestly,
this would be great.
If we put both of you guys,
I would get in a costume.
but like
I would do it
I just can't
I don't think that weekend
no because I have the smallest feet
I have size 14s
and they're not even the biggest feet
on this pocket
I'm a 13
I could be the baby Sasquatch
that would be perfect
I don't I don't know if you could pull off
a baby Sasquatch
look really
well I'm the smaller
the three Sasquatch
how tall are you
I'm 6 3
so you guys could be
the adult Sasquiche
that's the perfect height in my mind
what 6-6-3
because you're
tall but you're not like like you can get on planes and like i had a lady get mad at me because my
knees were in the back for seat and she like yelled at me and i was really tucked up and i was just
like sorry i almost got to fight with somebody a couple weeks ago because they were mad about that
and i was like you serious right now about your size just that my knees were in the back of the seat
i was like are you are you being serious right now like i would i would love for this to not be
happening wait they were trying to recline or it was just like your knees um so so she tried to recline
and I kind of made it very apparent with the pressure of the knees.
Yep, arm to the back of her head.
I did, I did give it a little, a little boost to make it clear that that was not going to happen.
And then about five minutes later, she tried to recline again.
And I was, I was just not going to let, I can't.
Like, my knees were in the back of the seat.
And then she kind of looked back and, like, wanted to say something.
And I was, I just looked at her.
Like, are you being serious right now?
Is the cost to benefit ratio for reclining your seat on an airplane, like the lowest possible thing that you can do?
plane seat should not recline.
They recline like two inches and it doesn't make you any more comfortable.
Should not recline.
It just makes the people behind you really, really mad.
Yeah.
I only recline if there's a child or it's an empty seat.
I very rarely take action in public thinking about other people.
Uh-huh.
I'm not a big enough asshole to recline my seat on the plane.
Yeah.
I don't understand people that do it.
Um, even if you're like a tall person,
I just don't think that it doesn't do anything
It doesn't provide it you tilt backwards like two degrees and that's it
It does nothing for your legs
I think if it's late if you're doing like a red eye or a late night flight
Nope sorry still no
I think it depends on yeah like the environment that you're in
Because I think it's a child behind you it's okay
The surrounding of everyone else might like it's a majority think like group think
Like if everyone else it's an 11 p.m. flight red eye
I think we can lean
If everybody leans back
then that's one thing right but if you're taking a 3 p.m. flight fuck off yeah well I'm a good
plane sleeper I'm great I'm a great plane sleeper when I hit that when the like the G force
of the runway and like taking off for some reason just puts me out like a light it's like there's
melatonin in the air yeah it's all the oxygen too yeah the high oxidation gets me I don't know why
I was on a plane yesterday and like it was 4 p.m needed I needed an appomedia
it was great it does make you tired too just like after you land after traveling yeah anyway so back
to the better thing we need to make a family of big feet and make it go viral in a video i think i think
would be great for the podcast what would the family be doing uh something breastfeeding what yeah
just like by the water so billy you're the you're the you're the baby squatch yeah and you're latched
on to big t's nipple let's not we can say we did yeah i mean is this
is your idea i know but i i don't know for i think it needs to be more cryptic so like a faraway photo
family of squatch are you eating we're we're by the water and we're we're doing we're taking
drinking water like apes with like cupping our hands that that would definitely go viral okay we could
get some serious big feet people in on it cool i think the most i can't think of an easier way to
get shot than trotting around the main woods dressed like Bigfoot like that sounds like
easy way to get shot by a shotgun but if you're really trying to go viral like we only have
ever seen Bigfoot walking around drinking like doing nothing we should be mauling the shit out of
pfti that's the video whoa we're ripping them limb from limb like Sean of the dead I mean you're
not wrong I wish that you would use a different example but shoot I want to come up with the
counter argument but I'm like actually like if if big feet are murdering somebody that's very tough
to fake why we do why we do like a lost footage type tape where you have the camera and then
the big feet just take you out like Blair witch project yeah yeah and then well what we could do
you don't have to rip me limb from limb but I'll just be like on my back by the river and then
I'll have just like a bunch of red stuff on my on my belly and you guys are just going like
face just pulling out my my fake intestines and eating them and the intestines are very obviously
like strings of hot dog and sausage yeah attached i'm telling you i think billy's on to something
i think that doing our own yeah i mean it would be great for the macrodosing podcast i'm just saying
it would be take a little trip it would be great yeah bigfoot runs up to the camera at the end
it's like subscribe download great five stars i love it um one other thing i wanted to get into
before we get into today's topic, which is the royal family and conspiracies around the British
monarchy.
There was something found in France last week.
Did you guys see the Notre Dame thing?
The Notre Dame.
Yeah.
So last week in the rubble of Notre Dame, the cathedral over there in Paris, which by the way,
remember when that burned down a few years ago?
And then everybody online got mad at me for making a joke about Notre Dame football as the cathedral was burning because they're
like oh that's fucked up pf t i went i visited that that church when i studied abroad five years ago
it has a deep meaning to me and people were like oh i can't actually that was my first taste of
people and like in case anyone still doubted that barstool was trash about me because i made a joke
i was like usually notre dame waits until late october to meltdown and then people were like
this is fucked up what percentage of the people who because i remember twitter that day they're
like wow what a what a travesty what person
of the people who said they had a deep personal connection to that building donated to help
like rebuild it that's a good question probably very few i would guess less than one why would you
donate to that well they were claiming what how how much it meant to them personally and sure you
know who needs more money is the catholic church right that's more where i'm getting that no but i mean
big t's i understand the point that he's working which is just people were
being like performatively upset about it um that's that's 2022 just performatively being upset it was a
building that's the democratic party it was a it was an old building that burned down nobody was
hurt nobody was killed in it yes it was a beautiful building i've been there i i enjoyed it i took
a couple pictures when i was inside they wouldn't let me light a candle because i i was not
confirmed in the catholic faith um but it's a nice building it's good it was old it had a
lot of history it's one of the it's one of the major landmarks of western civilizations i i would
object to that it but historically history maybe yeah i mean it's it's it's a nice important old
building i get that but i'm still going to crack a joke about brian kelly right am i correct
am i timelines incorrect or was that happening as the rainforests were simultaneously burning down
Oh, I don't know.
I think it might have been Australia was burning.
Something else large was on fire that needed more thoughts and prayers than the church.
No one died in the church, right?
No, nobody died in there.
Yeah, I don't give a shit.
Like a worker kicked over a paint bucket next to an open flame, an all-time cartoonish mish mish mishap.
And then accidentally burned down the most important building in the world.
Are they sure?
That's funny.
Is that really?
Yeah, that's basically what happened.
I mean, I'm simplifying a little bit.
Speaking of Brian Kelly, you see he's, he's on his burners.
Yes.
I asked Coley, I wrote a blog about it and I asked if I could write a Brian Kelly joke,
which he said yes.
That's not what happened.
It is.
No, no, no.
You asked me if I thought that's what happened in the real world.
Not of you could crack a joke about it.
No, no, no.
I didn't end up writing it.
Hang on a second.
The internet's cut off.
Okay.
But yeah, so they found a mummy underneath.
there like they found a sarcophagus and it was 60 feet underground i think 150 no 150 feet underground
now that's also incorporating the fact that there's a basement in the cathedral which goes underground
quite quite a bit and then it was like 10 feet underneath the uh floor of that but they found a
sarcophagus with a mummy inside they don't know who it is they don't know what it's from but they
want to open it and francis said that they're going to open this mummy and see what's
inside and see what we can learn from it.
I think this is going to go one or two ways.
Either it's going to be awesome and we're going to find out that it was somebody just,
like we're going to learn a lot about ancient history or the rest of the earth will be
forever cursed until this mummy is destroyed.
Really one of two ways.
Well, Paris, the tombs of, underneath Paris, there's tons of bodies.
The catacombs.
The catacombs.
Like, honestly, there's so much stuff down there.
Like, like Paris, I think is an extremely old city, older than most.
and that incorporated into like how many plagues they had, how many bodies piled up,
how many they had to like throw down there.
So this mummy, like, I mean, I wouldn't say it's that rare.
It's just that its placement was directly under Notre Dame.
Well, it might be very well preserved because it was in a lead coffin.
As I was saying, in every Catholic church there is...
It was in a lead coffin?
Yeah.
Oh, shit.
That's a vampire.
There we go.
That's a fucking, sorry to interrupt, man.
No.
No, that's way more exciting than I was going to say.
It was a lead sarcophic.
I'm pretty sure in a book I read that you're supposed to put vampire bodies in a lead
lead coffin.
I'm sure he doesn't.
Sounds like a great book.
What kind of book are we talking about here?
Dude, I read a lot of books.
Did you ever read those books growing up, Billy, the national geographic books that were
about different topics would be like mummies or like ghosts or they were all, they were like
not chapter books or anything, but they would give you like the details of them as like a seven-year-old?
Dude, you know what books I read religiously, which I think was the basis for a lot of my knowledge in life and set me up very, very well.
Animorphs.
Magic Treehouse.
No, horrible histories.
It's actually an English book, but they basically told you all the best parts of like his, like horrible histories of like the Incas, the Vikings, the Egyptians, the Greeks, the Romans.
I need to find these books because literally they are the best books in the world.
if you want your kid to be intellectually curious about the world and do decently well in school until they graduate and become a podcaster and then everyone thinks they're stupid because they talk about weird stuff buy them the whole collections of horrible histories okay um 14th century is when this mummy was from so the 13 hundreds not that not that old really but i'm still i'm i'm i'm on board for opening this this led sarcophagus maybe it is a vampire dude
I'm pretty sure you're supposed to put either a vampire or a werewolf in a lead coffin.
Dude, that's also fascinating, just how all those old time, um, old time legends about, like, vampires and werewolves.
Like, there's literal stuffed animals that they believed were were werewolves that have gone disappeared that were on display in different museums, like actual, like beasts that would terrorize different parts of the European countryside.
And they're like, yeah, like in the history books.
He was like, yeah, that was a werewolf.
Like there's one called the Beast of Avenue, the Beast of somewhere in France,
the Beast of Avignon, which they think, yeah, the Beast of Avaryone.
Wait, I think that might be a storybook, a fictional cataport of a historical, wait, no, that's a different one.
The Beast of France.
So we're trying to figure out whether or not this.
mythological creature was real.
Yeah, the beast of Gavondon.
Between 1764 and 1767,
mysterious beast called the beast of Gavignon
ravaged the rural region of Gavendon, France.
Yeah.
So they think it might have been a hyena
that was with a traveling circus.
Okay.
That escaped.
So the Kingdom of France used a considerable amount of money
and manpower to hunt the animals responsible,
including resources of several nobles, soldiers,
royal huntsmen, and civilians.
Wow, 98 of the victims killed were partially eaten.
A 1987 study estimated that there have been 610 attacks.
Like, what?
Hmm.
Billy is right, though, about Paris just being kind of a creepy city with all the bodies
because it's been around for so long
that eventually the cemetery is start to run out of room to put people.
So they just have, at one point they put, I think,
millions of dead bodies
underground in these old mining tunnels
that they had there. And so you can go take
a tour of it. I took a tour when I was over there
and it's like, I don't know, two hours
long. And it's kind of
creepy. It's just skeletons everywhere, like
piles of bones. Very
scary. And there's like so much
more of it that is not available
to see on a tour. They don't just let you walk
through the entire thing. But there's
probably, I know, 5% that the public's allowed
to see. And then other people like to go
down there and explore on their own in the off
limits places and people die there all the time because they get lost because it's pitch black
it's like going caving and uncharted territories and since it's illegal they don't have like
security patrols that go around all the time to check for people that are down there that would be
an awful job wouldn't it to be like a security guard like a rent a cop and your your beat is just
walking through a mass grave yeah the catacombs yeah that'd be awful but yeah so we will keep you
posted on what happens with this mummy as the situation develops it's definitely a vampire definitely
vampire that's a really saying about they crack open that thing and the vampire just wakes and then
bite somebody and then a whole like new strain of vampirism that hasn't been around since like
the medieval times gets out and then we have to deal with like a prime evil new strain of vampires
yeah i mean like lost strain of vampirisms like they killed they hunted they got rid of all the
vampires, right, hunting them, putting them in these lead coffins to make sure that they
never get out and they're immortal, right?
So then we open up this coffin, boom, vampire busts out, bite somebody, then we got all
these vampires run around again.
And it's basically the plot to Twilight.
A lot of movies.
Yeah.
28 days later.
Yeah.
Just you name it.
But not zombies like vampires.
Yeah.
I was going to say, vampires.
and maybe there's part
of the lure that I've
lore that I've
not read up on
I don't know how anyone considers that scary
at all
yeah you get bitten and then you can't die
sounds pretty good
well then you can't see the sun
your testicles would shrink up
that could be a problem sure
it's really like I mean if I'm
if I'm diving I'm already thinking with my
Alex Jones editorial brain right now
But like the original vampires were rich, wealthy people that would feast on the blood of others.
They're essentially...
Speaking of those kinds of people.
Well, yeah, no, they're essentially like doing the thing where you drink baby blood to stay healthy.
Like all the celebs, like Tom Hanks.
And, you know, some celebrities and like famous celebrities that have lived for quite a long time, a very long time, many people actually think might be vampires.
take us to the current Queen of England,
one of the oldest reigning monarchs.
I guess we're done riffing about vampires.
A huge vampire.
No, this is one of the first...
Now, Coley's right.
That transition was...
That's enough vampire talk.
Because in Billy's mind, he got to the bottom of the case already.
So it's like, we don't need to be discussing this.
It's a new strain of vampire that's going to come out and bite people.
And then the earth is going to take over.
I thought we were trying to transition to the royal family.
and how they're vamps.
I'll tell you what, Billy, we can do that.
But before we do, how's your credit?
My credit's actually sick now it is.
Did you check it when you did your taxes?
No.
But your credit is sick.
Last time I checked, I'll check right now.
So if you're concerned about your credit, I would recommend checking out credit karma.
If you're paying down old credit card debt, personal loan could be the solution to that.
Loans usually come with fixed monthly payments, making them simple and a great way to help out paying off your credit cards.
Plus, loans usually have lower interest.
rates than credit cards do, and credit karma can help you find the best option for you.
They use your credit data to find loan offers that are personalized to you so you can have a
better idea of what loan amount you can get approved for.
Credit karma will even show you chances of approval, so you can choose between loan offers
that you're more likely to get approved for.
You can apply with confidence.
Comparing loan offers and credit karma is 100% free.
Best part of this is it won't affect your credit scores.
A lot of times people are a little bit wary to run a credit check because sometimes when you
pull your credit, your credit score dips. That can affect your rate offers on loans, but not
with credit karma. It's 100% free. It will not affect your credit scores, and it could save you
money. Credit karma, you can apply with more confidence today when you go to credit karma.com
slash loan offers to see personalized offers. That's credit karma.com slash loan offers. Okay,
Billy, you were saying, the Queen of England is a vampire. Yeah, so allegedly. One of the
one of the biggest
sort of
basically
it all goes back to the Vikings
and how the Vikings
dominated most of Europe
and that all of the
royals across Europe
are all related. They're all coming
from a certain number of
early monarchs who lived in
Denmark, Scandinavia and basically
all of their descendants
are now the kings
and queens of different countries in Europe.
so with that you have a lot of people who are related and one of those people was thought to be
vlad the impaler glad the impaler uh was supposed to be the source uh the source text of a lot of
the dracula uh franchises vladimir dragula uh was a hungarian who hungarian king who's thought to
like do terrible things they call him vladd the impaler because he enjoyed
to sharpen sticks and just impale people and watch them die really messed up guy but anyway they
think that a lot of Vlad's practices were actually very commonplace amongst all the European
kings and queens and that they use their blood to live forever and stay young it's an all-time
like metal name though Vlad the impaler is if you're going to get like an evil nickname you could do
a lot worse than that yeah I think it'd be it's a combination of his natural name Vlad
and then Impaler, if it was like, Steve, the Impaler, doesn't hit quite the same.
Vlad the Impaler, though, that's like, that's a name that you will remember.
And when you're saying that the descendants are still members of royal families, you want to walk people through that a little bit?
Yeah, so let's pull up this other article.
So, Billy is right.
I'm interested to see where this goes, but he's right in the fact that European rulers used to all marry each other's families.
that they could stay in power.
And there wouldn't be any new blood on the block.
It's like, oh, we're not going to start a war with France
because my sister-in-law is married to the king.
It's like the McDonald's theory that we have about wars
where two countries with McDonald's don't fight wars against each other.
It's kind of like the, you don't want to fight a war
against your family necessarily.
Exactly.
Basically, marriages were used for diplomacy.
So to ensure good relations with a country,
if you had a daughter or you had a son that needed to be married,
it would provide a great way for two countries to get along.
So because of this happening over so many years,
you ended up with all these royals who intermarried
and they didn't have a great grasp of genetics at that time
and what could happen if you were, you know,
marrying a first cousin or marrying a brother or, you know,
turns out your uncle has a son and you could marry them
and just tons and tons of interbreeding amongst the royals in all of Europe
has you know many have said that the royals are their own ethnicity because they have no relation
to the people that they govern because they weren't for so for example prince philip was the
prince of greece who he just passed he was married to the current queen of england you know he does
not look greek at all and he's rather one of these relatives to this original lineage of royal
that comes from Denmark.
Let me give you a good piece of text.
I might explain what I'm trying to say better.
While some of the current European monarchs are related to each other within a few generations,
we have to go back a few hundred years to find the ancestor that all of them have in common.
Johan Willem Frizo of Orange,
Prince of Orange.
He and his wife, Land Gravine Mary Louise of Hesse Castle, had two children,
Princess Amalia and Wilhelm I, 4th, Prince of Orange.
It is through these two children and all the current reigning monarchs of Europe descent.
So, yeah.
So let me tell you guys about these O.Gs.
Johan.
Yeah, Johan, where the hell is Orange?
Anyway, it's pretty crazy.
I think orange is somewhere.
I think it's in the Netherlands.
That would make sense.
Yeah.
But it's crazy.
Like literally all.
of them are related and it's thought that since they like have no connect like they're all intermarried
they're like their own ethnicity so like the queen of england might not even really be english and like
the queen of belgium like who's related to the queen of langen that whole royal family might not
actually be flemish like it's because they have zero relation because they're all just intermarried
from this original line so there's a huge separation between the people they govern
and they themselves because they are not really like from a ethno-nationalist standpoint the same
people so like which is hard to explain but basically this has spawned a huge conspiracy theory
which was pushed by David Ick so David Ick was a former BBC presenter who is a huge
conspiracy theorist and he believes that the royal family is dissenting.
from in all the royal families of Europe are descended from aliens who intermixed with royal
bloods that's where this whole reptilian uh sort of stuff comes from and that the reason they
intermarry and everything is because they want to keep their bloodlines clean with other royals
and you know it's because they're human ancestor made with reptilian aliens and that's why like
you know that's where that that whole Alex Jones George Bush is an alien you know that all
kind of stuff comes from and that's connected to most of the presidents of the united states to
be in some way or another related to certain british kings like there's that statistic where
like something like 75% of u.s presidents are related to english um monarchs okay which is a whole
another discussion but focusing on the royal family that dates back to how the queen may be a vampire
and in that they're saying that like there's there was a study that um young mice if you take
young mice's blood and you give it to older mice through blood transfusions that it uh reverses
aging in the old mice so this is a big one that falls into the same idea of a lot of qanon
stuff and they say that the reason why the queen of england has lived for so long is because
he's getting transfusions from babies.
So don't people get, I'm pretty sure Mick Jagger and Keith Richards got blood transfusions
too because drugs were just like eating up their system.
Shocking, that's really the case for what you're talking about is like the fact that
Keith Richards is still alive.
Yeah.
There's something going on over in England.
I don't know what it is.
Well, I think they're still performing.
They are.
Mick Jagger's going out there.
He's like cutting a rug.
It's insane what he's doing at this age.
That's more impressive to me than the Queen of England just like being alive.
and like having a tea party every six months,
it's way more shocking to me
that Mick Jagger and Keith Richard
are still touring actively.
So the royal family just in general,
I used to be anti-royal family.
I used to not really understand it
and be like, that's kind of weird
that you guys still have a king and a queen
that you all worship.
I actually kind of see the use of the royal family, though,
because the way it's been explained to me
is that the royal family is,
they're just mascots for the country.
and they're in charge of all the like ceremonial stuff that we also expect our president to do
in addition to all the stuff that's like governing it's kind of useful having a family that
you'll be the soap opera and then the people that are actually running the country they can
they can not worry about that sort of thing well the president is basically a man like if you look
at the powers the president actually has it's so minimal they've been a puppet since day one
There you go.
But it's also like, if you're a president, you're expected to go out and be like on the White House lawn for the Easter egg roll.
Yeah.
But really, you should just not really, we shouldn't be concerning ourselves with that.
You should be running the country.
Well, I think the president never ran the country.
Oh, okay.
Who did?
The, like, I think that's been well established.
Coastal elites?
Not coastal elites.
Well, the reptilian shape shifters who are related to the, no, I'm kidding.
But like a general apparatus.
I feel like we should have, I'm not opposed to having a royal family if it means that that's, those are the people that we focus all our weird attention on.
We do.
The Kardashians.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
Good point.
Yeah.
Way cooler.
Yeah.
We should have a king and a queen.
Kim Kay.
Who would you?
Oh, no.
If we were just starting from scratch and you had to nominate someone to be king.
door queen. I think, I think Chris is the queen. Jenner. Yeah. Huh. Right. Yeah. America. She's the
puppeteer. I mean, she, yeah, she is, she controls everything. That big T. We're talking about in this,
like no power, but as, yeah, then yeah, I think it's, but I mean, when you nominate her,
there is a chance she goes for real power. Oh, for sure. That's why I love her as a, like,
she's that ruthless. Okay. She would take the role very,
seriously. And then as far
as King goes, I think that Coach O should
be King of Louisiana. You know what's crazy? They should have
a monarchy in Louisiana. That entire state
should be governed. It should be its own country.
Yeah, it's just... That's our whales.
Yeah. It's Coach O and
Mike the Tiger running the show down there together.
No, you know what's crazy? Chris
Jenner's related to the Royal Family. Did you know that? No, I didn't know that.
Yeah, this, I mean, they, the whole idea is that
like, hypothetically, this one
bloodline is all in
like the Illuminati and they're all slightly
have reptilian blood and that's why all these
high power people are related to
the royal family. Chris Jenner dates
like Chris Jenner's family
now who would be king
that's the real interesting question
I don't have a king
not yet
and we'll get to that in a little bit
but usually there is like there was a king
right well he was the prince though
right oh you're just saying further back
yeah there have been kings
if there were to be a king right now
in the United States
Who were you looking at for that role?
It's got to be Dwayne, right?
Yeah, the rock is a natural one.
Just Steve Austin, too, Stone Cold.
Yeah.
Stone Cold and Chris, is there named Chris Jenner or Chris Kardashian, I don't know.
Chris Jenner.
Chris Jenner and Stone Cold Steve Austin would make a dynamic duo.
Imagine that.
Imagine people coming over for like official diplomatic visits like Trudeau comes down here
for some sort of economic summit.
And Stone Cold just drives a beer truck up to his face and sprays him
and gives them the double birds.
That's what we need.
Maybe, you know what?
If we really want to get into the puppet show,
it should be Chris Jenner and then Vince McMahon.
And then they have their own team,
their own like royal apparatus around them
and they run everything.
If it's Chris Jenner and Vince McMahon,
then the princess and the prince could be Steve Austin
and Kim Kardashian.
Yes.
And make that, like have the lineage be that.
Yeah.
Where it's the Jenner Kardashian family.
It's a little old to be.
Prince.
But Prince Philip died, a prince.
Yeah.
Have you seen princes these days?
Prince Philip was, like, dead for three years before you die.
Yeah.
I mean, Prince could be the prince.
Yeah, so Kim Kardashian's related to Scottish royalty.
How?
Through Prince Gregor, the younger brother of Kenneth McAlpin, who was regarded as the first
king of the Scots.
Hmm.
What's that?
What's their relationship?
Yeah.
Oxy-Moron.
I think the Scottish.
the Scottish world, he's very intertwined with current role.
Yeah, the Scottish leaders would be trade title and land in exchange for like pledging loyalty to the crown, which is how, who was it?
I don't want to get my names mixed up, but I haven't seen Braveheart in a while. I think it was Robert de Bruce.
Oh, yeah, the guys who betrayed him.
Got bought off. Yeah.
Yeah, when they rolled up and they thought they were going to help them and they did.
Yeah, so I mean, I'm open to hearing counter arguments against my.
Vince McMahon and Chris
Jenner being the king and queen of the United States,
but I feel like that's a good couple right there.
I think that's...
Goddell?
Gadell will be the most boring king ever.
He would suck.
No, no. Make him like the advisor.
The little suck-up advisor.
Goodell puts McMahon as great as Vince is.
The product isn't always the best.
You can't say that about Gadell.
But I don't think Gadell has the personality.
Yeah, I want somebody that's like...
Goodell could be good behind the scenes.
Like, he could be the president of the United States, like, politically with the work, the hard work part.
He seems like a president.
He just looks like a president.
He acts like a president.
He should have been a senator.
He's very boring.
Whoever is next to Chris Jenner, I think, is going to look boring.
Yep.
So you might as well get someone who's going to put forth a better product.
But that's why I think there's people in the background.
That's where Roger Goodell falls in.
Do you think Caitlin Jenner is boring?
What?
It's not really associated with them.
Wait, what are you talking about?
They could also, if it's Vince.
Chris Jenner.
Who's Caitlin Jenner?
Caitlin Jenner is the transgender woman who Chris Jenner used to be married to.
Yeah.
So like he said anybody next to Chris Jenner would be boring.
I was like, Caitlin Jenner has never been next to Chris Jenner.
I don't know what you don't get.
Wait, what am I talking about?
Isn't he on the show?
That's what I'm asking.
I'm very confused.
They're divorced now.
I don't keep up with this shit.
You don't keep up with the Kardashians.
Caitlin Jenner was born Bruce Jenner.
And as Bruce Jenner competed in the Olympics was like one of the best athletes in the world, then he married Chris.
Then he divorced.
Then he transitioned to being Caitlin Jenner.
Yeah.
And now she's running for governor of California.
I get what Billy's saying, though.
And I believe killed someone with her car.
Yes, correct.
Yep.
So I, the only thing is if it's Vince and Chris Jenner running the country, I feel like Chris
Jenner would actually completely alpha Vince and that would blow up.
And it would act, that would be great theater too.
But I also think that Queen Elizabeth Alfaid Prince Philip.
Oh, yeah.
Well, Prince Philip wasn't a rightful heir to the throne.
Yeah.
So he was just lowly like a Greek prince that like was not close enough to be incestual.
But they're, you know, they're related?
They're all related.
Yeah.
All right.
So, so let's talk about some of the modern conspiracies around the royal family, aside from
the fact that they're all related to vampires.
Was it reptilian vampires?
What's the difference?
I'm not sure.
Probably the fangs.
I think, I think the aliens, and they think that, like, aliens came down and, like,
crossbred with humans or, like, early caveman humans to breed.
this it goes back to like the nor the norse alien tall the tall whites as they call them
arian knows about this stuff one of my uh one of my favorite royal family conspiracies is that
queen elizabeth the first you know her as the virgin queen she never married i don't know if she
fucked she probably fucked she definitely but they called her the virgin queen um there's a theory
out there that she was actually a man oh no that's that's that's i didn't even want to talk about
that one it's misogynistic we can move on that
But the vampires were all good.
Yeah, no, but they basically called her a man because she was a strong female leader.
Well, I mean, that goes into it a little bit.
I think it's more the fact that she'd never married.
But there's a theory that because when she was a child, she was kind of exiled because the plague was sweeping through.
And they didn't want her to catch the plague because she was going to be the queen one day.
So they exiled her to a town of the countryside.
and the theory is that she died out there from the plague.
But at the time,
the governess that ran that area
and was in charge of keeping her safe,
the theory is that she saw Queen Elizabeth die
and she was like, oh, fuck, if this person dies on my watch,
the king's going to kill me because who was the king at that point?
But he had killed numerous wives.
Oh, was that Henry the 8th?
I know Henry the 8th had like eight wives.
Yeah, because no, I think, let me check that out.
It's so freaking confusing.
Yeah, it was Henry the 8th.
Yeah.
It was.
So this person didn't want to be killed by Henry the 8th.
So they just found a boy that had like the same color hair and then said that this was the queen.
Yeah.
Yeah, Jesus.
Yeah.
And then Edward.
But Billy's already debunked that one.
Well, no, because it's like, it was one.
I always hear that's the first like, uh,
um misogynistic like like she was such a girl boss that they had to be like oh she's actually
man yeah yeah no but another one is um we get to princess diana we touched upon it once on the show
before but it's a it's a big one but here's a funny one that uh megan markle is a political
ploy for the english royal family to take over american no that's a hundred percent true
oh it maybe not to take over politics but popular culture for sure
I can I go can I go on a rant real quick go for it go off I fucking despise more than I don't even hate them
Americans who care about the royal family I hate you go off despise you we fought a war
so that we didn't have to do this to care about that and they're not interesting in the slightest
in my opinion maybe when they were like getting killed and shit that was kind of interesting
but now there's really nothing interesting about them so this guy marries an F list
American actress and everybody's like, oh, so intriguing. No, it's not. I hate them and I hate even
more people who care about them. Okay. Sickening. It's sickening. That's tough for me. America
first. Yeah. So bad dog, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that you do care about the
royal family and the drama. Look, I don't, yeah, I mean, yeah. Like when Kate Milton and Prince
William got engaged, like that was one of the coolest days of my young, young adolescents.
So why was that so cool?
Because it's like a storybook thing.
Because she was a normal woman.
She was a normal girl who happened to like literally find her Prince Charming in college.
Like how fucking cool is that?
Lifetime cranks out 400 of these movies a year.
Exactly.
But it's real life.
And I think, I think.
Is it in my brain?
It's a Cinderella story.
Yeah.
So Big T, you were so mad on the day of the royal wedding when everybody got up early to tweet about it.
Girls were buying hats and stuff.
I woke up like again, when K.
Hayton Will's wedding. I did wake up. So did you, did you buy, was it a fastenette?
No, I didn't buy hat. I was like 11. We were like 11 or 12. So it was like young enough where I was like kind of still into that kind of stuff. But then again, to to counter that, I also was really into when Megan and Harry got married. I just think there's something cool about those two couples specifically. A normal non-royal person being brought in. Obviously we see with Megan a different story, but being brought into this.
whole entire new environment like Kate grew up you know like Prince William was I mean everywhere
and then all of a sudden she like finds him at St. Andrews like I think that's like the best
story ever how many women at University of St. Andrews like when when was his name Prince Charles
what's his name William sorry Prince William when Prince William would walk into a room would be like
now's my chance literally literally and Kate is gorgeous and you know a seems like a
great person like she won the game of life kind of and she she not only married the future
king of england her children are the future like i think yeah yeah kings and yeah kings and queens
of england who's a little is it edward the new guy louis charlotte and i have the same birthday
louis charlotte and oh shit there's another he's got punch a wall i know you see i i look
if people follow the royal family
is like Americans who
follow like
Premier League soccer. Yeah.
It's like I don't like we have enough
stuff that you like we have foot like American
football. Yeah but like if you like soccer
that's the best league in the world. We have pop
culture here that's infinitely better.
Yeah. But anything in the good point.
But also like there's a thing
and I think it's one of those like the grass is greener thing where
the queen of England doesn't affect me. She's not
my queen you know like Prince William it's not sounding that way okay I don't like Queen
Elizabeth I have like no really like here nor their opinion on but like they are they are
separate from me with like the like Trump family and the Bidens yada yada yada there's like so many
sides in American politics there I can kind of look at it through a lens where they don't
affect me it's almost like TV like nothing I nothing they do yeah nothing they do really
changes my day to day.
Hypothetical.
Yes.
Mad dog.
Go to St. Andrews.
Okay.
Meet a prince.
Done.
You get heavily involved with the prince.
You're married.
Got it.
Go through the marriage ceremony or whatever.
So I'm Princess King.
You become a princess and then you realize that you have to participate in vampire rituals and do
fucked up shit.
Okay.
You in or you out?
Do I find out after I'm married?
Yeah.
Yeah, they don't tell you the book of secrets.
Yeah.
But then you get in, you have.
have the next in line
and then you have to start drinking but
and like killing kids and stuff.
Okay.
I don't like the bad rap
Billy is given to vampires right now.
They don't exclusively kill children.
No, but like this type of vampirism.
I believe the British.
The British vampires who do it
like they don't actually need the blood.
Like the vampires who need the blood
like guy like some of them.
Superfluous blood. Yeah.
They like hit up blood banks like they
like sustainably harvested blood
they're like the vegans of the vampires
they're ashamed of what they do
these vampires are talking about
they're just trying to live long
like maintain power
just oppress people
kidnap children
I think at that point
I would morally like to think
that I would get out
and I would ask for a divorce
I would go to divorce
I would think
it would kill you get killed
oh I get killed or I'm in
vampire no and that is what people think
happen to Princess Diana
well because Princess I would
I would like to have a character
like princess diana
I don't know I don't want her to die
like personality wise not the death part
so you just want to be a princess
yeah but like everyone liked her
it would be cool to just
and she had like a cool like passion sense
well sides of my
I could understand from a woman's perspective
like you grow up you see fairy tales
you watch movies about a prince and princess
and then one day it's like oh shit
you are going to be the princess
and they have these beautiful weddings in
with Westminster Abbey
Does it matter what the prince looks like if there's because I feel like William was
William was hot was he yes he was formally hot he needs some hair plugs he needs hair plugs now
but you can afford him but like when Kate met him at St. Andrews I can he was cute then
Harry I still can think continues to be attractive if you're a prince and you get hair plugs
that's you abdicating the front yeah you got to you got a bold yeah you got to shave it yeah but
also I mean like at a certain point he's a fucking prince yeah I mean like he is in front
the camera a lot but no but I mean at a certain point like looks aren't as important because
he's a prince so uh he was all the women's rights movements of the last hundred years
I'm done my mad dog well Matt no I'm saying looks don't matter as long as you're a prince
yeah as long as you never have to lift a finger again yeah yeah but you would also be
written about in the tabloids every day you can go anywhere without getting your pictures taken you
have to probably help clean all the shit from the corgis up that the queen has running around
yeah i think i think kate again megan got a really bad rap i think kate gets a pretty good rap
she's uh she's elegant very elegant i think i could play i don't know i don't do a really good
job i have a lady like i have a feeling so you get shit on by animals like three times a year that's
true. That is true. They would have a field day with that. So when Big T says that the whole
Megan Markle thing was a way for the royal family to gain a foothold in the United States,
Big T, I'm going to push back on that just a little bit. Couldn't you think about the complete
other way around and say that Megan Markle is actually our way of infiltrating the British royal family
and taking from them the very last thing that they have that's all British. Who in the American
government do you think called up queen elizabeth was like hey can you get your grandson to marry this
actress who was in like one episode of suits for us she was on every episode of suits i i don't know you
you couldn't pay me to watch something she was in but to to just like really get y'all going over here
like we're really interested in that maybe she's just a covert agent herself and they've been
raising people the cia has been raising children uh that they identify that have engaging
personalities. And then they raised her to become an actress. They gave her first class beauty
treatments along the way to ensure that she would be attractive and knowing that she's got all
the training in place necessary to seduce a possible Prince of England. And then they're like,
okay, she's the best opportunity that we have. Go do your weird magic. And then she just seduced him.
So what channel was suits on PFT? USA. Interesting. Very interesting. Quick, quick.
A quick, let me just say the ploy, the point of the ploy, is to make sure that Harry would marry someone from the U.S. so that their kids were eligible to become president one day.
So then the British monarchy could have power over America.
Also, they did move to our shores.
I was going to say, they'd still have to be born here.
But also, she...
They live in, like, Canada, right?
No, they live in L.A.
She fulfilled her mission tremendously.
like this mission was a resounding success
if you're looking at from the U.S. perspective
she seduced him
they get married
she becomes a part of the royal family
and then she convinces him
to walk away from the family
and abdictate all his royal responsibilities
and then move back to the United States
we like to do with the blood sucking
you think the blood stuff
you think she saw the blood sucking
and is like you're either in or you're out with me
yeah but I don't think it was the overt racism
I got to say Megan Markle has one of the most symmetrical faces I've ever seen.
That's like one of like to create like because she's gorgeous because I like been I was looking at a picture of her doing research for this and I like was like she looks like fake and I was like wait a second like she has an insanely symmetrical face.
That's as close as Billy will ever come to be like that chick's hot.
It's a very analytical way of being like her proportionally her face is completely in line with my idea of like necessary.
requirements to breed
with the face.
Do you think it would have been
a different situation
if Megan wasn't
or whoever Harry married
was American but not famous
like if somehow he bumped in
She wasn't famous.
Again, yeah, I do agree with big teeth.
Suits was a fine show.
Fame is where I draw all.
I had never heard of her once.
Okay, then let's consider a public figure.
She was still some sort of notoriety.
Let's say it was Kim.
Kardashian?
Yeah.
Oh.
If it was Kim,
what would,
the outcry be there? I think we would be like, yeah, we got like...
Sex tape? No, I think it would just be Kim Kardashian's infiltrated the royal family.
True. I don't think, I think... Or would the royal families be infiltrating the Kardashians,
which has more power? I think that this was definitely the Kardashians. I think that this was
a big time coup for the United States, for the good old US of A, that Megan Markle married into the
royal family and then took away one of their princes. I'm just going to say, we don't know,
Another thing is, I, like, Harry might not be Charles's son.
Very, very true.
So he might not be a vampire.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Which would.
He's just a redhead.
Yeah.
He's just ginger bastard.
So, uh, they, they stumbled their way into the vampire layer, found out what was going on.
They're like, we got to go.
They're like, oh, yeah.
What did Harry used to say?
He used to like, mummy.
Oh, no, mummy's drinking blood again.
So, uh, that's a good British accent.
There was also a conspiracy about Kate that.
that she used a surrogate for her child.
And that she bounced back quite quickly.
And that her baby bump was never big enough to be actually pregnant.
I tend to think that that's just like the British tabloids.
If they take pictures of you all the time from every angle, they can make anything.
There's a lot of context.
In my head, all of the British tabloids are like National Inquirer level.
Yep.
Yeah.
They don't reach much.
But I still think that there's something useful about having a royal family.
because we don't talk at all about real British politics we just talk about
Boris Johnson gets swept under the rug he does Boris Johnson that guy's hilarious
so Big T you don't like any of the royal family you don't you don't have any takes on
what happened to Diana I well those are two different questions I find all of them now
wholly uninteraining and remnants of a country for which I do not care
And so if they were more entertaining, you could see yourself in.
No, no, no, no.
I just, I don't like them.
I don't care about them.
But I don't see why people care about them.
There's nothing about them that's entertaining.
What about the fact that the queen?
Now, but as I said, 25 years ago when they were killing people possibly,
I could see why some people would be interested.
Mm-hmm.
I think Harry, honestly, Harry, I think is kind of hilarious.
Like, from some of his old antics.
I mean, not all of his old antics,
but there's videos of him
like seemingly prank calling
the queen pretending that
he's like, hey, mommy, how the cogees?
Like he's not like when he was in the army
quote unquote normal.
Yeah, and there's some videos of him in the army
where he's getting interviewed.
Yeah.
Or he was in the Air Force.
I think he might have been the Royal Air Force.
Yeah.
And he's being interviewed for, I don't know,
some show, some news show.
And he just like gets up in the middle of the interview
because there's an alarm going off.
Oh, yeah, I have to go do my job and just like sprints away.
He does seem like a more normal person.
Well, also, he has no pressure.
Yeah, that's true.
He's, he literally gets all of the perks of being a royal member of the, like, but like,
he's never going to be king.
He's like a backup quarterback.
But not even backup.
Like a guy that you know is not, he's Chase Daniel.
He's like a third string.
He's never going to get into the game.
And he's going to collect a sick paycheck for a long time.
And all he asks is you just stand there with a clipboard.
And he gets to marry a hot check.
Yeah.
he uh he did his podcast ever come out he had a podcast yeah he's supposed to he had a huge
podcast he was megan markle on spotify and i never what a dweb i wish i could have bet the under
on how many episodes that was going to last that's the that's the ultimate example of the podcast
bubble where they were just throwing money at anybody that had like a decent size name giving them
a podcast me like people listen to this even though they don't and then like you think that
megan markle and prince harry going to give shit about like sitting down doing their ad reads
and making sure that they hit the exact right promo code.
Listen, being a podcaster, it seems very glamorous at times,
and it is, but listen, they,
they're not built for the content game.
So they do have a pod.
They're like, don't you hate when you're trying to mail something?
You can't find a stamp.
Well, what's in this?
They do have a podcast and they have an intro episode.
Yep.
A holiday special.
So the intro episode came on.
December 2020.
Yeah, I just did.
The holiday special also came out in December 2020 and three weeks ago, March 24th,
was a one-minute episode about archetypes.
What the fuck?
Wait, we got to listen to this episode.
Oh, we get to listen to it on there.
Yeah, it's called Archiewell Audio.
I wouldn't be honest, I listen to Bruce Springsteen and Obama's podcast.
I mean...
Was that a cash grab?
I don't know.
It was like it was decent, but it wasn't like...
I don't even know.
I've only heard terrible things about that podcast.
Okay, it's not like, yeah, it was pretty fucking trash.
Like, like, honestly, it was kind of big, like, I don't know.
It's one of those things.
Meanwhile, Mike Tyson on Joe Rogan recently, fucking amazing podcast, bro.
Like, literally, like, one of the sick, like, dude, I literally was listening to it like the past three days.
It is insane.
It's awesome.
This is where, you know, Billy's brain is just completely broken.
Mike Tyson did a podcast on our fucking network that was really good.
Talk about the biggest one in the world, not the million dollars worth of game one.
Oh.
All right.
Here we go.
Did they talk about six foot tall 300 pound lion killing chimpanzees?
You're going to have to listen.
All right.
Here is archetypes in this groundbreaking new podcast, Megan, the Dutch, Duchess of Sussex.
Does she still get to use that name?
That's the crazy part.
She's just, yeah, I kind of like that.
It's like you can try to take it away.
I can still call myself whatever I want.
I don't think Harry had to give up his land.
People think I shall be quiet as a misset.
I'm a little emotionally unstable.
You have the ones skanky in America?
We do have that word.
I was waiting for you to smile at some of the compliments.
You didn't.
They are weaker, smaller.
They are less intelligent.
This is how we talk about women.
The words that raise our girls and how the media reflects women back to us.
All right.
But where do these stereotypes come from?
And how do they keep showing up and defining our lives?
I'm Megan, and this is archetypes.
The podcast where we dissect, explore, and subvert the labels that try to hold women back.
I'll have conversations with women who know who are going to dwell how these types shape our narratives.
And I'll talk to historians to understand how we even know.
got here in the first place.
Architects. Coming soon.
Listen only on Spotify.
I like that the coming soon.
For all y'all, we're talking about conspiracies,
about American politics and the royal family, whatever.
She, the conspiracy, she just needed a job.
She just needed to be famous.
Huh.
Wasn't he like schmoozing?
Was it Bob Iger or somebody that, hey, like Disney Plus,
I know y'all need, like, shows, like my wife's an actress.
Oh, she can do voiceovers, of course.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that's what it was.
Yeah.
So she got, she kicked Harry off their non-existent podcast to put a new placeholder for
another podcast that also doesn't have any episodes.
She was like, you know what?
I'm the star of this show.
I need my own podcast.
The Megan, the Megan Hour.
It would be funny if she called it like Megan making money.
And it was just about mirroring into a royal family and then convincing your husband.
to leave them.
That'll put asses in seats.
Architects?
No thank you.
Hard pass.
Why don't you do a podcast
on how the queen mother
drinks blood?
Yeah.
Get into the crazy shit.
Talk about weird uncle.
Weird uncle.
What's his face?
Andrew?
Yeah, weird uncle Andrew.
Yeah, that's a holiday episode.
Everyone's got that weird uncle that sits down on the holiday table.
He's always got a new date.
You're not sure if they're someone he adopted
or always brings around his weird buddy always flying around with him we don't know if
they're dating the manscape i also don't get with okay so harry leaves the royal family
like does he have a bank account yeah but like where does his money come from i don't does he just
have like a lump sum of money same place where ovechkin's money comes from i would imagine hard work
The NHL?
I would imagine that when they left, I have no evidence of any of this,
but I'm sure there was some sort of NDA that was signed.
Right.
And that probably came with like a severance fee.
Really?
So they probably got paid a little bit of money.
I have a feeling there's definitely investments that are being handled by a bunch of financiers
that like he's probably living off of like 300K a year just in interest of like very
that's it
very low stake finances
that like
that's just like
what like
when a baby's born
I feel like
there's all these
baby shower gifts
given to royal babies
and then you just
get like a bunch of wealth
from all your royal relatives
you probably have
well you were definitely
given a share of like
the crown jewels
but I don't know
if he got to leave
any of those
he should have negotiated
for his severance
been like
I'd like
I'd like 20%
of the swans
in the world
because every
every queen
you know the
monarch of England
the queen
owns every mute swan
in the world. I'm pretty sure like all those
stamped, a lot of the English products
have like royal stamps
like I forget what the actual
basically just like the queen's
sort of stamp approval. Yeah, the wax, the seal.
Yeah. I think I think like that
is probably a premium. That's probably one of those
easiest things they licensed their name to do.
Plus it's probably tourism
proceeds from like it's such a huge tourist
Like, for example, people visiting Buckingham Palace, people visiting.
But that's like free.
Windsor Tower.
No, no, they charge.
Because someone's got to pay for the actual guards, pay for, like, the tourism generated.
Don't they make all their money off taxes?
No, the, like, the, like, taxes funded the royal family.
Taxes funded the tourism business around the royal family.
So they are an investment, their existence and the whole.
Like, for example, the Empire State Building.
Like, we have tons of people visiting the Empire State Building.
We go to the top of it.
Like, that does generate income.
But I'll look up these specifics, but it's, there's definitely generational wealth from the royal family.
They come from money.
They do need to make money, though, for the rest.
I don't think that they can just coast.
I don't know the specifics of their NDA and how much money they were given.
That's what I'm like, is Harry going to have to go find the job or something?
They're going to do like tours of Walmart, like, like, like,
Saven does with a championship trophy where it's like come get your picture taken
with Prince Harry and Megan Markle actually I mean this is guys you got to think
brain's going to a weird place here but if they really were falling on hard times
imagine the fee that you could set up like as if Prince Harry were to become a jigolo and be like
hey oh stud fee yes like Prince Harry and Megan will show up at at your uh
significant others house or Bachelorette party and they will get down with you
probably like $500,000, right, per session?
That's what?
That's where you're going to.
To have Prince Harry and Megan Mark will show up and fuck you.
There's people who like come for money who don't work at all.
Right.
And that's like not royal.
Sorry for throwing a business idea after that.
That's not royal family money either.
Like there's people who like.
But that's what I'm saying.
Like what is royal family money?
Like how much is the real family worth?
Let's look that up.
How much is?
Orbs in 2011 said roughly 500 mil.
It's good.
much lower. This is roughly
as for the monarchy as a whole
they say $88 billion.
Okay. So you could literally give
that probably that probably includes like the real estate
that they live in. That's not like that they own but you can't really sell
that. Right but well if we're going to get into this part of a conspiracy
they refinance all those properties and when you refy those properties you can get
lump sums of cash and that takes us to the biggest royal financiers
of the royal family and those are the interconnection with many of the banking families across
Europe which people also think are basically the royal families are just puppets of them
that gets a little problematic okay talking about the financiers actually can I call a timeout
on this podcast I got to go pee okay you guys can keep talking or not during the time out
that's up to you guys I got my look this over okay to see time out Billy well I take my time
out to go pee I'm going to try to make it back by the time you're done with
ad read talk to these people about better help as someone who has to deal with lots of huge characters
all day and you know a lot of big personalities that sometimes can be a little aggravating and stressful
i found that better help is a huge influence on just making me feel better and just sort of
having some place to really vent about a lot of the stuff i experienced day to day better help is
customized online therapy that offers video phone even live chat sessions with your therapist so you don't
have to see anyone on camera if you don't want to. It's much more affordable than in-person
therapy. Give it a try and see if online therapy can help lower your stress. And macrodosing
listeners get 10% off their first month of BetterHelp.com slash dose. That's B-E-T-T-E-R-H-E-L-P.com
slash dose. 10% off their first month. Perfect timing, Billy. Great job. How do you do?
He made it.
love BetterHelp. Go check them out right now. You don't have to use a camera if you don't want to.
You can talk to somebody over the phone. You can talk to them on the internet via chat.
Betterhelp.com slash dose. Perfect. All right. So Billy, this is going to be interesting challenge
because Billy is also afraid of being problematic with this segment. He was telling about it earlier.
Because there are, there's a lot of anti-Semitic, like theories that go around with the banking family.
So I'm going to see if Billy can, if Billy can pull this off and watch him struggle.
We're probably going to do a whole episode on all of that type of stuff.
It's a huge conspiracy.
But basically, intertwined throughout the history of the royal family,
there was the Rothschild, who were the biggest financiers of many countries
and many of the different royal families across Europe.
They've been accused many times of being war profiteers
because they basically finance both sides of wars.
allegedly it's very a weird dynamic but basically there is a conspiracy that the rothschilds
hold the breeding rights of the royal family which is a total weird conspiracy because like
basically like the hypothetical scenario that pft was talking about of uh giving harry a stud fee
they think that they may like own the royal families and use them to basically produce capital
across Europe by causing wars, marrying off, different types of stuff.
It's a whole weird thing, but that could also be the source of, you know, owning a royal
is sort of a huge asset that you can make a lot of money off of if you think about it that way.
But that is a conspiracy that is often pushed.
So they would finance both sides of wars to ensure that they just make money off it no matter
right that still happens to this day yeah whenever i mean look up what happened with with the bush
family yeah back in the mid 20th century they think the bush family's connected to the english royal
family in a whole different thing it's it's gonna we're going to take a it would need a whole
episode to sort of explain the whole dynamic but basically it all stems from a uh one of probably
the first uh instances of fake news the printing press got invented uh Gutenberg and all that and
basically a pamphlet was distributed across Europe describing how, I think it's Nathaniel Rothschild
basically was at the Battle of Waterloo and watched to see the result of the war and immediately
ran back to England and before the official news of the French defeat at Waterloo, we were
able to make several investments to profit off of knowing before anyone else.
that that's highly disputed because there was also parts of the story such as a huge storm over
the English channel that he sort of avoided and paid a fisherman to get him to England through
and that's why he got back to London before the rest of the news did okay so it's a whole weird
very weird conspiracy that sort of like basically you know ties into a lot of the stuff that
Q and on spouts now and you know this idea of like you know there's even relations with
Epstein all sorts of stuff that people I do think that if you're the most powerful family in the
world you probably get a heads up if something's about to happen where your family members
might be killed I think that's probably fair yeah it's unless they're the ones doing it unless
they're the ones doing it good point so on that note you want to talk little princess die
yeah princess died she that's very good bill I sorry
can we put in like a drum sound effect that actually was good though yeah yeah and listen
if you were j leno's writer in 97 uh you're getting a promotion for that one yeah yeah
yeah kevin you banks big t do your kevin you bank's impression kevin you bank who the hell's that
he was the guitar player oh the bald guy yeah that would that would always laugh at the jokes i know
all right so let's do that again billy you say so let's talk about princess die
Princess died.
That's perfect.
All right.
So, yeah, this is, I mean, it's a tragic story what happened to Princess Diana.
So she was married to Prince Charles and they were getting a divorce.
And there's a lot of theories about why she was getting a divorce.
The cheating, the adultery of Prince Charles is one.
Now, is there anything, is there anything romantic at all?
And Mad Dog, I'm asking more in your direction on this because you're so smitten with the idea of like a woman meeting a prince and becoming a princess.
Not Camilla though.
Yeah.
So is there anything romantic at all if it's the prince of England and you know, everybody knows that he's married?
Yeah.
And then you see him and he starts flirting with you.
That is not romantic.
You would not want to become the royal mistress.
Well, no.
I wouldn't want to be the royal mistress.
I want to be a princess.
Okay.
But the thing is with them is basically Charles.
and Camilla were a couple before Dye was even in the picture.
And Queen Elizabeth, it was said,
didn't approve of Camilla to enter the family.
Here comes Princess Die,
but Charles was still in love with Camilla the whole time.
So Charles and Camilla were like one straight line
and then like Di came in and like interjected it.
So sounds like your team Charles on this.
No, I am not at all.
I think love will find a way.
No, I think Prince Charles is.
is a bad person. But that's where the mistress versus Princess Dye comes in because Camilla
and Charles wanted to get married and Princess Dye was more of like a like you can't have
Camilla but you can have Diana. Hang on. I don't know who Camilla is. This guy was married before.
No. So Prince Charles is the Prince of England who is Queen Elizabeth's son. He was married to
princess diana right he had an affair throughout their entire marriage before during after with
this woman named camilla got it when princess diana and prince charles got divorced that is who
prince charles is now currently married to is camilla got it so he went back to her i would almost
say like that's that is kind of romantic but camilla again like if you're part of the royal family
and, you know, you're Prince Charles
and you are heir to the throne,
you cannot be doing that.
Well, Diana may have also,
Princess Charles may hypothetically,
like, this is another rumor,
he might be sterile,
and William and Harry are not his kids.
Well, it's more rumored that Harry is the bodyguard's son.
The bodyguard or the polo instructor,
but that's less believable.
But yeah, that I can.
can not kind of see, again, Princess Diamond,
she rest in peace.
Mary Queen of Scots might have been a ginger.
You know, they talk about Mary Queen of Scots.
I think she's depicted as one.
Yeah.
So like ginger's in the royal family is not that far.
Yeah.
Also, they're all English and I feel like that.
Well, they're technically like Danish, Dutch.
Really?
Yeah, because the Prince of Orange.
Oh, like what you were saying earlier?
Yeah, I mean...
I think Princess Die got the shortest end of any stick ever.
My favorite conspiracy with Princess Diane and Prince Charles is that she had a secret baby.
Oh, I don't know about this one.
And off the books baby.
How?
The royal baby Sarah is what they call her.
She was undergoing fertility tests and they took some of her eggs.
And the theory is that somebody like stole.
one of the eggs
and then had it implanted
in his wife's uterus.
Oh, so it wasn't like Princess Diana was pregnant.
Correct.
I saw this same
rumor about Kate.
Middleton?
Yeah.
Well, that's the idea
that she wasn't ever carrying the baby
because she didn't have a big enough bump.
But yeah, this is,
it's probably not true,
but it is fun to think about
in like a storybook sense.
Like there's somebody growing up
that doesn't know that they're
They're royal, yeah.
And they get told on their, like, 18th birthday.
Guess what?
Hey, you're royal.
You're royal.
But that's, that's one that's probably not true, but it's still fun to think about.
No.
There's also the whole notion around Diana's death, which is that it was staged in some way or it was planned in some way.
Because this is true.
She did write a letter saying that she felt like she was in danger.
Yeah.
And that they were planning an accident in her car, break failure.
and serious head injury
in order to make the path clear
for Charles to marry again.
And there was also rumor
that she was carrying
her new boyfriend's baby.
Dori Afiyahed.
Dori Afiyah, yeah.
And that one to me is one
that I think if you talk to a lot of people
that paid attention to the royal family,
there are a lot of people out there
that believe that Diana's death was orchestrated.
So the thing is about Philip,
if we remember Philip was the prince of Greece.
And historically, the Greeks and Egyptians
really don't like each other.
So this idea that Diana
that
Diana is having a relationship
with his Egyptian
who would then become
the stepfather to Prince Philip's
grandsons was too much for Prince Philip
and that was one of the other
reasons why they think
that Prince Philip and the family
might have had her killed.
Do you think Prince Philip had that much say
though?
Because wasn't he looked upon
as being like a black
sheep after the affair?
No, no, no, that's Charles.
Oh, Charles, sorry.
Did Prince Philip have that much say?
Yeah, because, like, he would, like, the queen obviously was the queen, and he was
obviously a prince.
I know, but, like, the thing is the queen might have agreed with him.
I guess if it's his husband, though, or her husband.
Yeah, the queen might have agreed with him.
That's true.
I think, I think, the queen, I don't think ever really liked Diana.
Yeah, Diana was, she was looked upon as being, like, more of a common person.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She didn't like, she didn't enjoy the trappings of war.
as much as some of them do?
No.
And I don't think she went along with everything like in previous relationships.
She didn't, she wasn't just a bystander.
Well, what Diana would do would be she would go to all the different countries that the British
Crown had like historically suppressed and caused bad things to happen.
And she would go like trying to help them out, which would in turn put like a spotlight on
the history of England and all the fucked up things that they've done the past.
I don't think that the royal family liked that that much.
Or she was really vocal about the AIDS epidemic.
Mm-hmm.
Like she was, like, one of the first public figures to, like, touch a person with AIDS.
She was anti-landmine, too.
Mm-hmm.
Started landmine awareness, which I think we can all get behind.
Anybody out there, any fans of landmines?
No.
Mm-mm.
Not actively, no.
Not actively.
At one point.
Actually, in your pre-woke period, you were a big fan.
Actually, there are some, like, Ukrainians right now who are very pro-landmikes.
That's how they've been stopping it.
tanks rolling it. That's what's been
stopping the convoys. Well, there's anti-tank
mines, which I've learned are different than
anti-personnel minds. Yeah, so you can
step on a tank mine. I'm anti-
anti-personnel
mines. Okay. So I'm pro-personnel.
I'm pro-Ukraine.
I'm pro-people.
Landmines are the ultimate, like, future me
problem thing that countries have implemented
where it's like, you know what, we really need to win
this war now? Let's not think about
the next 15 years. I wrote a
blog about it. They got these rats
that they come from Africa
they're called like New Guinea rats
and they're like these gigantic rats
and they've trained them to find landmines
and they've been doing really well
so they can detect the landmine
they just let them out in the landmine fields
they're too light to set off the mines
so they're not just sending rats out
to get blown up the rats find the mines
and then people come over to dig them out
and take them out safely.
How do you dig out a landmine without it going off?
You dig around it.
And they're like, under and up.
Yeah.
I'm anti-landmine with a very small exception of I do enjoy in movies when there's like
somebody running through the woods and they step on a landmine, they hear it click and they
don't lift their foot up and then they try to figure out what to do.
It's really just that movie behind it and in the lines with Owen Wilson when he crashes a plane.
Great, great movie.
Is this serious movie?
Yeah.
All-time Eastern European track suit guy is the main bad guy in that movie.
he's like a special forces dude
so it probably
it probably takes place
somewhere in Ukraine
it's definitely Eastern Europe over there
and I've never seen Owen Wilson
in a serious role
yeah that was kind of shocking
he played a pilot
that got down behind the enemy lines
it was like oh I guess I'm taking
Owen Wilson seriously for two hours
but it did have one of those
landmine scenes in it
but with that exception
I am anti-landmine
yeah
yeah no but I think
I think Princess Dye stood up
for a lot of things that
like you said PFT
like that the royal family
had done wrong in the past
and then
her and Doty are spotted
out and about
yep
I mean they do blame it on the driver
being a drunk
yeah the driver in the tunnel
but
I mean
which at the very least it seems like the royal family
should do some more
thorough background checks
you think the royal family would have some
pretty vetted drivers.
He was being chased by paparazzi.
That's every time he drove.
He was also drunk, allegedly at the time.
That's what we're talking about.
So, I mean, but the thing is, if you wanted to kill Princess Die, you fuck up something
with the engine, throw a drunk guy in the front seat.
And throw a paparazzi.
Yeah.
She would be chased by the paparazzi no matter what.
Exactly.
So that part's already done.
Yeah.
Make sure the crash, the thing goes off in the tunnel where no one can.
can see it including the like it's pretty easy for your mind to get there in the british press
in general they're just they're kind of fucked up they're like big time vultures they were taking
pictures over as she was dying right instead of trying to administer first aid or call for help
well and wasn't there a thing where if she had gotten to the hospital sooner or something they
could have saved her like if they would have done something different she could have been saved
i think people speculate about that it's a possibility let me just trying to get the shots
that's so fucked up
yeah that
I mean
I don't know whether
the conspiracies around Diane are true
but there's definitely
there's some things that point
to it potentially being a fit
a fit there I don't know
what are your thoughts on that
on her being potentially saved
no on her just like her entire death
oh yeah I mean
what year was it again
97 because
was Elton John Candle in the Wind remix.
Right. Yeah, that's, I feel like that's what I remember most was Elton.
That was really Alton John's time to shine.
Yeah. How mad was Bono when Elton got around to doing a song for her first?
I feel like Bono was probably like in the lab trying to get the third verse down.
Didn't have it done. Elton came out with his remix. He's like, fuck, that asshole.
So there was a Fiat, a white Fiat Uno and James Ed Danson. So James Ed Danson,
So James of Danson was either a photographer or someone, the conteries that he was with MI6 as a means to swerve and thereby get the Mercedes to swerve into the side of the tunnel.
And then the guy who was driving it killed himself in May 2000.
Oh, really?
Yeah, his body was found in a black, burnt out BMW in a forest near the town of Nance near Malau.
Now, was he?
yeah that's one of the facts because he was in the car that basically caused the Mercedes she was
into crash so sounds like a loose end yeah what happened to the driver of her car i think you died as
well yeah i think all three of them die oh yeah that makes sense pretty convenient no that was a dumb
question i did that didn't uh occur to me i at the time because you coli and pfd you guys were
the only ones alive during that? What was the consensus on Queen Elizabeth right after that
happened? Like, did people automatically push for this was like Queen Elizabeth did something?
People were, people talked about a little bit. Everybody was just kind of sad for a while and then
there were a lot of questions. Actually, the first thing was people got really mad at the British
press. Right. Yeah. For the way that they conducted themselves during the entire situation. And
they kind of realized in that moment, it's like, wait, not only were you being dickheads?
in her final moments, but you've also been dickheads to her for her entire life.
And so people were just mad, mad about that.
And then after things simmered down for a little bit, then you had the theories coming out.
So it turns out there was a MI6 officer, Richard Tomlinson, who claimed that the way Diana died was mirrored plans you saw in 1992 for the assassination of the president of Serbia.
At that time, who was someone that they wanted dead because of what he was doing in the Balkans,
and that it was using a strobe light to blind the chauffeur in a tunnel,
then hitting them with another car was the perfect way to cause a serious 360 flip accident.
And he claimed that that was evidence that it was done by MI6.
I feel like if you're in a limo, was she in a limo or was it like a town car?
I think it was a town car.
Okay, I was going to say, like, if you get into an accident in a limo, you're kind of fucked, right?
Definitely.
Like, no, we're not even pretending to be safe in that thing.
Yeah, he's been arrested, this guy.
The MI6 guy?
Yeah.
Huh.
Interesting.
For what, knowing too much?
Breaching of the Official Secrets Act of 1989.
So they admit there are secrets.
It's a whistleblower.
Hmm.
Huh.
so Henry Paul was the driver of the Mercedes-Benz W-140
he was in the pay of the National Security Service
but they don't know the name of the country
of the security service was it Britain France United States what
did you know who this guy worked with evidence purport to support this
arises from money in his possession at the time of his death and his personal wealth
These allegations are covered in Chapter 4 of Operation Paget, which was the British Metropolitan Police Inquiry to investigate the conspiracy theories about the death of Diana, Prince of Wales in 1997.
This was in 2004.
Mohamed al-Faid was Egyptian-born businessman.
That was Doty.
That's the father, the grandfather.
Doty is the boyfriend.
Yeah, so Muhammad Al-Faed, I think that's the father.
I think that's Doty's real name
Doty
No, I read that was his dad
Yeah, I think Doty's father was this guy
He wants claims that
Henry Paul was working with MI6
Dude, I mean
Honestly, so there's a blood test
Which indicated Paul had been drinking
Before he took control of the car
Paul was drunk
That was what they claimed
Hmm
I
I tend to believe that there's something going on here
Yeah
That's my personal life
Paul was taking an antidepressant.
I mean, the letter ahead of time, it's kind of on her for getting in a car again.
She saw, yeah, she saw things happening.
She spelled it out, like, hey, they're going to try and kill me in a car.
And then she got in a car.
Would you just be bike?
You would just bike all the time?
I assume at that level, they don't let you drive yourself.
So I don't, I guess.
I would just get a sick, like, giant Silverado.
Just trick it out
Just roll coal on them
If they try to pull up on you
Have a
Have a Calvin
Decal sticker on the back
Taking a leak all over the queen
I definitely believe
The driver was drunk
Okay
But
Damn
Now Doty
Oh is
Oh Doty also died
Yeah
I think they all did
Oh so the boyfriend
Was in the car?
Yeah
Oh damn
Do you remember, have you ever seen the John Mullaney stand up where his dad accuses him of being there when he was 12?
Oh, his dad accuses...
John Mullaney's dad accuses him of killing Princess die when he was 12.
Why?
You can go watch it later.
I think getting rid of both them would be a perfect plan.
Yeah.
It's almost one of those things where it's like there's too many coincidences.
Yeah, the letter is really the...
the key point of evidence for me.
You don't write that letter if you're just, like, speculating.
Oh, yeah, being like...
No.
Yeah.
Although I want to say, for the record, if I die, it's because Billy did it.
Accidentally, though.
I think Billy is the biggest liability in terms of my longevity.
Your existence?
Yeah.
What?
Yeah.
Not through, like, anything intentional.
I'm not saying that you would murder me unless we're in a wood situation.
But I do think...
Or a plane crash.
Yeah, Billy accidentally killing me has got to be way up there.
I cut off one of your legs.
We both eat it.
Why not your leg?
Because we need my legs.
It's bullshit.
My legs better than your legs.
So there's also the royal prerogative in the United Kingdom, which, do you guys know what that is?
Mm-mm.
So although it is like mostly ceremonial that they have a royal family, the royal family, the monarch, does have their own initiative.
So they can overrule acts of parliament on their own.
now they like never do this but technically the queen could have final say on something if she
wanted to so they can they deal with foreign affairs defense national security they have constitutional
weight in these and other manners but limited freedom to act because the exercise of the prerogative
is in the hands of the prime minister and other ministers or other government officials so the the
prime minister could ask the king or queen to step in it's like the ultimate veto that could be
brought in. Now, I don't know the last time it's actually been used, but it's cool to just have
that on the books to be like, hey, at the end of the day, you can just blame, it's basically
saying, like, cover your ass, you can just blame the queen for not overriding anything bad
that we do. So, yeah, anybody else want to discuss any topics related to the royal family?
I was just going to say the last time the royal prerogative was used was 1976. Oh, what was that for?
It has been used
13 times
to refuse passports
Interesting
Who are they refusing passports to?
I'm not sure
That's like a
That's an awesome level of pettiness
Just keep your enemies out
That's what Chris Christie tried to do
Shutting down the bridge
People forget that
Wonder what he's up to these days
I saw him getting interviewed
I don't know if it was recent or not,
but I saw a video of him.
He was like in the club at the Rangers game,
and this guy was just asking him like,
hot dogs or hamburgers.
And he was like, oh, man, like, it was very stupid.
It's funny you mention that because I did see Chris Christie one time
at a Rangers game.
And he was just like standing up in the little level,
walking from aisle to aisle,
taking pictures of people.
You never sat down, never watched any of the game.
He was just getting his face out there.
which reminds me of his maybe most noteworthy sporting event appearance.
He was at the final four, I think, when he had two separate packs of M&M's,
and he was emptying the smaller pack of M&M's into the bigger pack of Eminem's.
As one does.
Is that a thing?
Oh, no, it's just, I mean, that makes sense to me.
Yeah, sure.
I still don't know to this day what he was doing there.
Well, I don't, I actually need to come up with like a full power ranking of Chris Christie's sporting event appearances,
because we'll always have the softball pants.
Yeah, that's what I thought you were going to say.
I forgot about the M&M.
That, you talk about viral.
People couldn't get over him doing the M&M trick.
That has not been replicated since.
That was a one of one move.
But the baseball pants are an all-time look.
If you're going to wear baseball pants, at least wear underwear.
That's like, that's step one in putting on baseball pants is make sure you have underwear on.
Not Christy.
not christie just hanging dong for the world to see i could see like the uh like you ask him about
abortion he's got an immediate answer you ask him hot dogs hamburgers he's like how much time do we've got
like we've got to break this down there are many valid arguments on both sides and i'd be doing it a
disservice if i didn't dive into the specifics and get back to you on that consult with experts
He actually, he did treat New Jersey like he was the king.
He was the royal, he was the monarch of New Jersey for a while.
You remember when the beach had shut down and then he took his family out there?
Is he, is he still in office?
No, no, no.
You talk, Big T says it a lot about Hillary and it's true, but you talk about someone
who thought they were going to waltz into the presidency.
Christy thought he, like, it was like he was born into that position.
And then, yeah, so he decided.
He and de Blasio thought they were going to be facing off.
Yeah.
Yeah. Chris Christie thought that he was going to become president. Then when it became
apparent that he wasn't, he was the first person to bow out of the race and then endorsed Donald
Trump because he thought that he was going to become the vice president. And then Donald Trump
just cut his nuts off. And he just had to hang around for years. And then when he got COVID at one of
Trump's events, nobody checked on him because Trump didn't care whether or not he lived or died.
So here Christie was in the hospital dying because he got COVID at a Trump
white house ceremony being like he's going to call he's definitely going to call to check in on me
trump's calling the hospital like get all the regeneron out of that hospital like he doesn't he doesn't get
the good stuff he calls it a tactical nuclear strike on the hospital just to make sure
finished him off he's like now get all the normal people get him out i don't want them dead i
don't want one guy oh chris christie he did he definitely thought that he was going to he's going
to become president one day and i think christie pulled the rare feet of
having like a 10% approval rating like nobody liked him like de Blasio was kind of the same
type of guy where he just united every coalition behind him to stand up against Chris Christie
I mean if it weren't like that might be the best hurricane in the united states history
because that's really when it turned for him sandy yeah yeah I feel like he was kind of
I don't know what his approval rating was at the time I don't think it was ever like 90 or anything
reasons like that, but he had more
positive PR
at that point. And then he handled
that hurricane so poorly. Everyone was like,
you know what? Fuck this fat piece of shit.
So he,
in 2017,
he had an approval rating of 15%
and a disapproval rating. This is actually
more shocking than the disapproval rating
of 81%.
That's crazy. So that's only
6% of people?
Four.
Excuse me, 4% of people that
fell into the like somewhat disapprover like right i'm not unsure everybody hated this guy
people were very sure one way or the other they were sure and that's the uh the lowest
approval rating of any governor in any state in more than 20 years what a king tough scene
what a legend um hope he's okay now hope he's made a full recovery i was looking up to see if
i could find like a de blasio approval rating and just seeing pictures of this guy
I forgot how much I hated him.
Still hate him, but now at least he's not, like, in the public eye.
You remember when he wore the Brooklyn Nets jersey with no undershirt?
Him and Christy have a lot in common when it comes to wearing undergarments.
Now, what do you think's worse?
That move with the jersey or the Mitzter going full, like, collared shirt under a Utah Jazz jersey?
Hmm.
That's like an old white guy politician thing to do, though.
I think that plays for Mitt.
like everything about Mitt Romney screams to me this is a guy that has a Brooks brother's shirt on
underneath his his uniform that that is right in line with what I think Mitt Romney would do
with de Blasio it's like you should de Blasio should have worn the collared shirt underneath
and said he just went straight up raw dog with it now Jesse Ventura I think that you can
probably put on the on the like official team do rag as well if you're the body
he's got the helmet on yeah yeah go
full uniform, full kit, where the shorts, you name it.
I'll just never forget when this city was going to hell in a handbasket at the hands of Bill de Blasio and he spent an entire press conference talking about Tray Young drawing fouls and how he needed to quit crying because we don't do that in New York City.
God, I hated that guy.
Oh, de Blasio's approval rating was 37%.
That's shockingly high.
How does, like, let's be realistic here.
How the hell does someone like that get elected?
who you want the real answer which person like de Blasio you mean Wilhelm yeah Wilhelm Wilhelm
I think his name was like yeah I don't know that much about the man's entire history but I think
back in the day he was like a who is a like community organizer I think that he was like
into workers rights and stuff civil rights guy and then he just I'm just could not govern
just want people to connect the dots how do you think he got into
into office billy i don't know all right well billy we'll look into that billy you have to tell us
how we got to yeah that's your assignment for nanodosing i think not enough i think i think i think a lot
of people don't live in the city and have their mailing address in the city interesting
the people who actually live in the city voter fraud count the votes billy no i'm saying i'm saying
like realistically how many of us live in new york city where our residency is in new york
city and we can vote in new york city i do i do you're you have a new york city license
license you don't need one if you live here i live here you can vote if you just live here yeah if you're a
resident but are you a resident i feel like you don't have to have a driver's license here to
to be a resident here do you file your taxes in new york city yeah i i told i told the story on
the show i got a twenty two hundred dollar federal refund had to pay new york city in new york state
1900 of it.
Wow.
Damn.
Mine was actually the opposite this year.
I had to pay the feds a lot, but then the state of New York owed me a lot of money.
Nice.
So came out on top.
They should let people who work in the city vote.
Okay.
Yeah, I know what you're saying.
Yeah.
Because your taxes, if you live in New Jersey.
I don't agree with that at all.
So you get to vote twice?
Probably just like a little voting, little voting tax.
I'm sure a lot of people running would agree with you.
Yeah, let's do a, Billy just rebranded the poll tax.
A little voting tax so you can vote in New York and say, no, I'm talking.
All right, so male landowners in New York.
Yeah.
Should get a second vote.
Yeah.
Nope, not people who read.
Also, you should have to prove that you can read as well.
All right.
So you want to do voicemails?
Sure.
Yep.
You want to dip her toes into the voicemails?
Mm-hmm.
Someone's looking to weave in this office right now
I know I can smell it
There's the big Epstein
And Prince Andrew
Oh yeah
There's that one
So Prince Andrew
We did Epstein
We talked about Prince Andrew
He's the one that had made several trips
To Epstein's Island
He's not getting off
Like clean
Yeah
Right now
Yeah
Prince Andrew's fucked
Yeah
Like the last time we
When we talked to Trunon
They didn't know what
It was gonna have
With Prince Andrew
Mummy's not paying his legal bills
Mummy is not looking at the Prince Hansry.
I like the English accent, Matt Dog.
Is that your best accent?
In terms of, like, other accents I could do.
Yeah.
Yeah, probably.
All right, so read the first voicemail in your British accent.
Okay.
Well, well, they're them talking.
Oh, yeah, it's right.
It's not, it's not something.
I got a really good swamp.
I have a really good swamp people invitation.
All right, let's hear it, Billy.
I'll do it later.
No, you can't say.
I know, but like, I can't.
I just got to get into it.
Okay.
Will you answer the first voicemail?
Because it's the only other people in popular culture who sound like Coach O.
All right, got it.
So you're going to answer this question from Mad Dog and the swamp people.
Okay.
So you're going to answer this question.
I think mine's pretty good.
That is a really good one.
Thanks.
Hey, what's up, guys?
This is Chris from Cincinnati on my way to get.
It's some Skyline chili for lunch.
B. FD.D.N. I'm talking about it.
Let's go.
My question for you all would be,
if you could take one
fantasy world
a la like Game of Thrones,
Lord of the Rings,
Harry Potter, Star Wars,
and make it a reality,
which one would y'all choose
and why?
Thank you again, guys. Love the pod.
Stay handsome. Stay beautiful.
I hope to have a great one.
Bye.
When I go down the gator, don't know, the price of gators been going off later, you know.
Dogg all my daddy.
The price of gator's been going up is when I got from that.
Joe Biden inflated my gator price.
God, don't know.
God, let's get a juckoo.
You can't get a guy for listening to $50 pound.
You got a big gator.
Went down the market, try to get a gator for reading up a price to be my family when I.
Joe Biden.
cast brady that's true.
Too much gil.
My gator, too much gilder, three times I used to pay.
Two, you got put the lines out.
You got three Gettos online.
Get us shakoon.
I just watched Coley throughout that entire thing, who did not crack a smile once.
My dogs are barking.
I was furious at them.
It had nothing to do with the U.S.
The finest impressionation of 2009.
Dude, swab people is a goat show.
What, what fantasy world would you make?
a real. I think I would like the world to be like what Billy's brain is like. I think that fantasy
world would be pretty solid. Skyrim. Skyrim. Just giant mythical beast running around,
vampires and shit. That's Skyrim, bro. It's Skyrim. Swag Kelly's the NFL MVP. Sam Ellinger
is Super Bowl champion. I would like to live in that world. Billy's fantasy land sounds like a lot
of fun actually uh no my answer is avatar and i would not invite arian i was going to say i'll answer
for arian avatar anybody else mine was fairly similar to yours it's just what democrats think like
the world is okay so you'd like to live you think that democrats have a good picture of what the world
should be like well no i think they have a terrible picture of what the world should be like and could be
like but in their minds they have this idea that like like if everything worked like it worked
in their brain where there are no limitations on anything sure everything would be also what would
that world look like because i think about this a lot imagine all the people imagine no possessions
it's easy if you try huh imagine imagine big tea if there was no religion there was that sounds
there was no hell no no hell below us got it and above us only sky you know what you should do
this sounds like a pretty lyrical like you should get some celebrities that you know and you should
have them like make a video each saying like different you know parts of that I think it'd go
it'd go pretty crazy nothing to liver die for yeah uh man um yeah I think the avatar world would be
pretty sick to live in.
The problem with this, this question is most of these involve, like, a lot of superfluous
killing.
Yeah.
Well, so does life.
Sure.
Is there a lot of killing in, like, Harry Potter?
Yeah.
Yeah.
They persecuted the mudbloods.
I've never seen or read Harry Potter.
Yeah, there was a genocide going on.
Oh.
His parents were murdered immediately.
Oh, right.
You're right.
I don't know.
I don't know what, like, fantasy.
Like, I would want to live in, like, a TV show maybe, but I don't know, like, if that would count as, like, a fantasy, you know?
Mm-hmm.
Billy, what's your pick?
Skyrim.
Oh, right.
I'd be with a two-handed battle axe running around.
Can I do, like, Grand Theft Auto?
I mean, we live in Grand Theft Auto.
No, we don't.
I feel like Grand Theft Auto is 100% like just normal world.
No, but I get to steal cars.
Well, you could do that if you wanted to.
cars. But yeah, I can't drive them like I can in Grand Theft Auto. Yeah, but I was in L.A.
And you kept saying it's just like Grand Theft Auto. Because it is. And I was in a souped up Chevy Silverado that had like camo on it. So like it looked like a car I'd make in Los Santos customs. I like was like a mental health break away from getting five stars. I also, um, I also just learned what an NPC means this weekend. Speaking of Grand Theft Auto. Yeah. There is tons in L.A. I don't. Is that like a real thing that people believe is real?
Oh, well, like, it's kind of like a schizo brand thing.
But, like, are people actually like, oh, yeah, that's an NPC?
It's just, like, random people that you don't know.
Like, it's partly like the concept.
Like, on planes or whatever?
Yeah, like, these people can't exist.
Like, these people can't have a type of conscience that I have.
I thought that forever.
Yeah, so you, NPCs.
Like, I think that people disappear when I'm not looking at them.
Yeah, like you can't imagine what they're doing at that moment.
It's like Quigs.
Really?
Quigs thinks that.
Yeah, we had them on, when we talked, we did the,
episode about living in a simulation.
Yeah.
Quiggs thinks that way.
Yeah.
They're like he can't imagine that after he goes home from work, that everybody else that he
knows at the office, they also go to their own home and have their own nights.
Is that narcissistic of me to think?
There's like, there's a little bit of narcissism that goes into that, but I don't think it's like.
It's just there's so many, there's so many realities to think about.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um, actually I have a new answer for, for the fancy world I would want to live in.
Acon City. Holy, I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Acon City. So Acon, the singer, an entrepreneur, he's been planning out this big project over in Senegal where he makes his entire own society. That's got his own currency. It's going to have like casinos, water parks, the whole nine yards. And he's planning this out. Now Acon, you might say that sounds like a little bit insane. Acon has actually been a really, really good business person over his career.
I think it depends who you ask
That's true
That's true
So I'm just saying doubt Acon at your own peril
So Coley, what are your thoughts on Acon City
Because phase one is expected to be completed
As early as next year
Yeah, I mean Acon's an extremely successful individual
I think he
We've thrown this term out a lot on this show
And when I say we, I mean, Billy, he is teetering on super villain.
Like, he's, he's one, uh, acon city away from, from becoming the actual.
I'm pretty sure like most of the money he's accrued and this is just from seeing stuff on
Twitter, so it could be wrong.
But I'm pretty sure he's just like sold a lot of, uh, like land and rights in, in Africa to like
Chinese billionaires.
Mm.
And like people have, their lives have been extremely affected because.
Like, I'm pretty sure he's a shady, shady individual when it comes to what he's doing over there.
Well, he's also the ringtone king of the world.
He's made a shitload of money off ringtones.
That's like where you go.
He had it at the perfect time.
Yeah, absolutely.
And, yeah, I'm reading an article right now.
Senegalese locals left disillusioned by lack of progress on Acon City.
So, yeah, they were supposed to be done with phase one next year.
That looks like it's a little bit behind schedule right now.
But, well, I'm waiting.
I'm waiting until all the facts come out.
It's definitely debt recourse, a land grab by a certain people's republic.
There you go, Billy.
All right, we got another voicemail?
Yep.
So, guys, and Mad Dogg, is Tanner from D.C.
Not exactly sure how to pose the hypothetical, but I've been thinking about it for a while.
So I'll phrase it like this.
What is, instead of pollution affecting the environment,
What if pollution affected gravity?
So the more pollution in the world would result in the degradation of gravity.
So over time, we would stick to the ground less.
I guess the question is, do you think society would react more proactively?
Or would we just make heavier shoes and shit?
I don't know.
We'd love to hear you guys chat this through.
Let's pause.
See you guys.
I would pollute more intentionally.
To decrease the effects.
To live in, like, space.
And then I'd buy courtside tickets to NBA games because the action would be that much better.
It'd turn it to slam down.
30 foot hoops.
Yeah.
I mean, if it was the reverse that the gravity was weighing down more on us and, like, every day would be harder
because it's like we feel the gravitational pull more.
Yeah, that's what it should be, actually.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The going up part.
people are going to have too much fun
like feeling like jumping
higher running fast
Yeah but don't you
Run faster
I think you would run slower
Yeah because you'd be like on the moon
But don't you think like it would make your day to day harder
Or do you think again like he's saying we would just adjust
Like we would make heavier shoes and heavier appliances and things
Depends on how because you'd be much more noticeable
In people's everyday's lives so like
Once people realize that
stuff is getting lighter and then I think people are going to start acting.
Listen, from what we've seen these last two years, people do not react to things they
cannot see. People don't react to things they do see, such as pollution. So I can't imagine
people would care any differently than they do currently. Well, you could test it out by going
up to Canada and going to the Hudson Bay because there's a place in Canada that has less
gravity than the rest of the earth and that's in the Hudson Bay this is actually true wait
this sounds like something I should know yeah you should know this billy I'm shocked that you don't
but because there was a giant glacier that existed in Canada like millions of years ago
it pressed all the land down so far that there's less mass up there and so you actually weigh
less because mass is what creates gravity in the first place it's true what
Yeah.
Gravity is a horrifying concept.
Why you'll always weigh less in Canada.
Yeah, it is a horrifying thought, coolly.
And actually, Arian is the only person that's begun to explain to me what gravity is, like, what causes gravity.
To me, it's still kind of like a mystery thing where people just say it's there.
So I believe them.
I have no reason to doubt them.
If it just stopped tomorrow, like we just woke up on our ceilings, you talk about like in a Jumeriquai music video.
That's how we had to walk downstairs.
Like the
I don't like thinking about gravity
Chaos
Yeah for people that are not cool with heights like me and you
That would even just like
Yeah it's that's what's keeping us on the planet
And it's I'm thankful for it
But shout out gravity
Laws of attraction
Well yeah
Well that's what gravity is
Things are attracted to larger things
So that's why you need to get as swole as you can
Good point
to find a mate that's that's excellent point billy laws of attraction um we should do an episode
by the way on on what would happen if the internet shut down yeah and like walk away through that
like an entire episode i think we talked about it last week a little bit right yeah but like do an entire
episode i think would be pretty good uh before we get to this last question you have another one
we have one more okay this last question has its own presenting sponsor how about that
Three Chi.
Three Chi, check it out.
I'm not a drug guy.
I'm a three Chi guy, though.
You can skip the dispensary, get THC delivered right to your door by taking 5% off Delta 8, HHC, THC, and more from Three Chi.
We love Three Chi.
They're the industry leader in Delta 8 THC, which is a more functional alternative to marijuana.
And best of all, it's federally legal.
That's right.
You can order it online, get it delivered to your door.
you have to be 21 to buy it.
It's available in a wide variety of delicious edibles,
vapes, drink enhancers, tinctures, and more.
Start off with a small dose until you figure out how it hits you.
It hits everybody a little bit differently,
but don't start off by going with like a full gummy
because it does have psychoactive effects.
It will give you an amazing buzz, a great body feel,
but you get a clear head.
Less anxiety, less paranoia.
Check out three Chi.
Go to number three, chti.com.
Use promo code stool five, take five percent off,
and you get a free canofan flag sticker.
That's promo code Stool 5 at 3chee.com,
the number 3, chti.com, to take 5% off,
and you get that free canofan flag sticker.
Okay, ready?
Yep.
What's up, Macrodosing crew?
This is Grant from Detroit.
Shout up the Midwest.
Got a hypothetical for you all.
Let's say that you're given the power to remove one cubic,
of matter from the planet.
So just a one-by-one-by-one-foot box,
what would you remove to cause the most possible chaos?
And let's just say for the sake of this question
that this act can't be traced back to you,
people would probably see it as an act of God
or probably definitely the devil.
Yeah, interested to hear what you guys have to say.
Stay gorgeous. Have it a great day.
I know exactly what I'd do.
The Declaration of Independence.
There's too many copies.
no that's just that would be a sick plot but if we lost the original it'd be a pretty big deal yeah
it's caused the most chaos unfortunately i'd remove a piece of rock in the continental plate
underneath yellow stone that would cause that age old gigantic volcano to go off we're looking
for the biggest bang for your buck that thing's gonna put us into volcanic ice age and just
destroy it the whole world so we could have chosen something of like like you did historic value
that would have like caused a ruckus billy wants to kill everyone you destroy the entire
wasn't that the point the most chaos yeah i mean i think it was just like whatever however you
wanted to take it we're trying to find the most chaos you did destroy the planet though yeah
yeah i don't know i mean that's chaos is there such thing as chaos true it's like if well the chaos
running up to no one existing it's going to be pretty chaotic i would remove the box that
contains all lebron james's championship rings and then you could be like
like yeah he's pretty good but no rings and then he wouldn't have anything to say to you
I don't know I don't know what I'd actually remove a one by one by one box is hard to
like fit something maybe somebody's heart Dan Snyder's heart well that's already missing
good point Putin's head Putin's head oh that really wouldn't cause chaos though
would it
I feel like it would though
I don't think so
there would be a power vacuum in Russia
yeah that's what people don't think about that much
when it's like advocating for Putin
to be assassinated
who's going to be the guy that takes over for Putin
like is it going to be worse
he might be worse yeah but what if they scale back
from Ukraine but then there's a gigantic civil war in Russia
yeah with even more casualties
exactly that'd be pretty
freaking wild yeah
I don't know Coley what would you remove
I definitely miss
understood the question at first i thought he was saying like you could remove something but it had to be
one by one so i was thinking like antarctica um i don't know i'm trying to think of like a
similar to billy like a box underneath something uh i think i think billy actually might be right
but i don't know if a one by one by one is enough would be enough well like for in my what i'm
thinking is that like there definitely is and it would probably be a slow burn but like finding out
where the lava flows are and where it would melt into the continental shell and just find like
I'd have to like really do some geology to figure out where the exact spot would be because it might
be just like a little pinpoint where you get some lava to leak in somewhere store like burn up the
whole crust and then just light that sucker off in like a hundred years now if I was a horny man I would
say I would put all of Miley Cyrus's underwear in there and then but I'm not so I'm not
going to say that if you were though box if I was yeah I don't think there even is a yeah you're
right she probably doesn't wear where is that box no I'm saying like that's what I would put in
the box no whatever you're getting rid of has to fit in this box but I'm not saying that but he's
not saying I'm thinking about like a Minecraft box it's just like a
lock take it out so it has to be in one physical location yeah yeah declaration of independence
would be pretty nuts because then they'd have to make another national treasure what about it to cause
the most chaos i'm i'm making assumptions here but like the book that the president of the
united states like with the nuclear codes and all of the alien secrets and all of that like his day one
shit that he gets. Let's assume that's
in a binder. But I don't think you get the
box. Do you get the box? No,
I'm just saying if you got rid of it.
I think that would cause a lot of implications.
Or just remove the nuclear football.
The one that gets carried around, the briefcase
that gets carried around that has the launch codes
and authorization. That's what I'm saying. Take that
away and then actually
if every other country could still start a nuclear
war, then that probably wouldn't be a great thing
to run. No, but it would be chaos.
It would be chaos. What about you, Big T?
I've been trying to think this whole time. My initial
thought was just so I thought of it as Billy like a one by one by one block that's just like there's nothingness now like not like a void of nothingness like you can't even conceptualize what that would be so I would want to put it like somewhere in the woods like a very not well traveled place and just for like one dude to stumble across it and then he'd go back and tell people like y'all aren't going to believe this shit
I found just like this.
It sounds kind of like, I think I'm creating Mormonism right now.
The guy just went into the woods.
He found these magical golden tablets.
He went back and told, so like this is just like he,
somebody just finds this one by one block of a void.
And then I feel like that would create some drama.
That would create a lot of drama.
Then that person would maybe turn it into a tourist destination.
Like come see the amazing missing block of nothing.
nothingness it would probably be a vacuum if you think about it or like a black hole it would
like it would be a vacuum so everything's gone then it collapses in on itself but i in my head
you put something in the box and the box goes away the box yeah everything inside that box has
now disappeared like me and pft are on one wavelength and you two are in another yeah i get it though
i i understand the concept behind what big t's saying yeah just has a box of empty space
Could you do that? Is there something in like Israel Palestine where if you placed it and it created that vacuum, something very important was removed that would cause like international chaos between three, the three big religions?
I mean, shroud of turn.
The dude, if you did sea scrolls not in not in Israel, but if you got rid of the meteorite Mecca, that would piss a shit ton of people off.
Yeah.
That's what I'm trying to think.
It's way bigger than one foot, though.
It is bigger.
I know, but even if you damaged it.
Yep.
Yeah, you're right.
That would piss a lot of people off.
Especially one of the corners.
Especially because people would view that as like an act of some higher power.
Yeah.
You know.
Then what?
Then chaos.
Yeah.
But what kind of chaos?
Like, would that just cause like a religious breakdown?
Yeah, I think so.
Probably a war.
Yeah.
I think so.
So, I mean, it's a, it's the most important holy site, probably in the world.
Yeah.
And that in the Vatican, I would say.
Yeah, I'd say that most.
Mecca is probably.
Mecca, I feel like, is.
Because there are more Muslims than Catholics.
Yeah.
It's mecca than a lot.
Mecca is big time.
Yeah.
Mecca and four.
Dude, Mecca, they don't even let non-Muslims into Mecca.
But sneaky, it is very easy to convert to Islam.
You should do that for an episode.
And then go into Mecca and then come out and then change back.
Mm-hmm.
What if you just, what if you removed like the, uh, the 18th hole at the U.S. Open on that Sunday?
Like you took the hole out and then they were golfing and the golfers are like, wait.
Like you couldn't crown a champion.
That would be chaos.
Like at Augusta.
Yeah, the 18th at Augusta.
Would you be removing the hole or creating another hole?
Right.
That's what I was saying.
Also, they do move the holes.
They do put them in and take them out.
Damn, that's a good point.
I haven't thought about that.
All right, so I think we've got a lot of good ideas about what we get off the face of the earth here.
All right, well, I think that does it for today's show unless there's anything else you guys want to get into.
Oh, I put together the dudes list Discord channel, and I sent it out this morning, and I have to go check on it.
I only have Discord on my computer at home.
And it turns out it's gone wild.
In a good way?
I think so.
Like it's a self-sustaining ecosystem?
A lot of dudes are saying that they're finding solutions to stuff that they need help with.
I love it, Billy.
I love it.
Let us keep us posted on the dude discord.
But I think they may have separated into several factions.
That's what's going to happen.
Yeah.
Then you're going to have to moderate the content.
Say what they formed.
Well, a certain, I don't want to say.
say extremist group has formed the militia, which is a militia.
It should be called Bill's Mafia.
It's right there.
But Belisha's more original.
Uh-huh.
So I got to go deal with this militia when I get home.
A military?
The baltia is fighting the military.
So is the militia on your side?
I don't know.
I haven't even looked in this thing yet.
I've been here all day.
If they're using your name, I would assume that they're on your side.
I'm literally, I might go back to a dumpster fire or an absolute.
Like, you know.
Thriving.
Metropolis.
You know, that meme where it's like, like, like if.
Society.
Yeah, society.
If, blank would have worked, that's if like, if the Belisha was our real militia.
I think that is Acon City.
I think that's what that, that meme is a picture of.
All right, Billy, keep us posted on the Bolisha.
And also you have another assignment for Wednesday.
Do you remember what that was?
To figure out how Bill de Blas you got elected.
Yep.
All right.
So that'll be the nanodosing episode that'll come out on Thursday.
Welcome.
back to macrodose and we loved having you guys here and i'm glad that we we squash the beef between
billy and big tea very glad about that all right love you guys
