Painkiller Already - PKA 791 W/ Ed Bolian: Repo Car Full Of Rattlesnakes

Episode Date: February 14, 2026

PKK 791 guest Ed Bullion from Vinwicky Taylor. This episode of PKK is brought to you by BetterHelp, lock and load, and our wonderful merchandise. So the Super Bowl happened in this past week. It did. One of the teams won. I didn't watch the Super Bowl, which means I didn't actually see the halftime show. But the concept of halftime show got me thinking. We're like, how many Super Bowls have there been?

70 or something around there? I don't know. But enough. And every time the halftime show is a musical act, it's singing, it's dancing. What I think is that maybe we inject a little bit of novelty in there, because that's only one very narrow milieu of entertainment. There's animal exhibitions, feats of strength. You could have like a professional paintball course set up real quick and then have like them do an exhibition match. that you could do fire breathing.

You could do magicians. There's so many things that you could think of that would be more entertaining than singing and dancing. And yet every fucking year, it's just a different person singing and dancing. Since 93. This is clearly a roundabout way for Taylor to get his friend with the fire pots on the ropes into the Super Bowl. Shout out of those unicycles. They fall onto their heads. Yeah.

But like just riddle. Tell me this. If they said this year's halftime show will be. a 30 minute magic act, you'd be a little more excited. I know I would be a little more excited. I don't like magic because I know it's not real. Live a little. Look, you ask me my opinion. I just let you know. I'm a grown-ass man. I like to reclaim my time. I'd like to reclaim my time.

30 seconds back on the clock. Yeah. No, I think it's a good idea. Magicians would be fun. The real thing I thought you would leap on Kyle is some sort of of wildlife exhibition where it's like a big time Steve Irwin thing where they get good zooms on animals but it wouldn't just be Steve Erler. Taylor, you're close. You're close. Kyle, I'm thinking three men versus a gorilla in an octagon. You can't go wrong as long as it's not singing in it. See, as I've gotten older, I've felt more strongly about animal rights. And so I don't like anything where like, like, I watched Jackass 2 the other night and they're like fucking with a snake. And I'm like, that snake's not having a good time. You know, like, what are we doing that to him for?

He doesn't want to bite a dick. Damn it. He clearly did. I mean, he thought it was a mouse, though. They fooled him. How did he feel now? Now he feels like the butt of the joke as like eight fucking jackasses laugh at him on camera and millions of people have seen it. That's his legacy.

You think he was bullied? Like, get a load of Steve. He bit a dick and didn't even get a mouse. So stupid. What would be the ideal? I'm down with the magic. I know Kyle was anti-magic. I'm on board. What kind of magic? We're talking about David Blaine, a little close-up match.

Or we're talking about like full-on David Copperfield. Like he's going to disappear from the stage, reappear up there next to Roger Goodell and like steal his ring and then like reappear on the field with the ring. Like he does something like that. He's got to be. Lebs involved. I'd be blown away by that. It's got to be big. You're right because it's still the Super Bowl. You couldn't do a little tidily wink, you know. You make a fucking like the king of clubs disappear. I'm going to be like, I would rather have Shakira out there. I agree. You would have to be a. big thing, but you're on, you're tentatively on board if it's a big thing.

Like an evil-kneville jump. I would like it to be so in that. Like, here's what I'm thinking. Maybe there's a flyover and we involve that in the magic show. Like suddenly David Copperfield is no longer on the field. I'm saying Copperfield, even though he's probably like an 80 years old, retired now. But whoever the big magician man is, like I need him to disappear from the field and reappear in like a helicopter in the sky or something fast rope down.

That's too easy. I need big magic. All you need is someone that kind of looks like I'm on the field that I can't tell from, you know, the stands and then the actual him in the helicopter or something like, yeah. Yeah, they would have to bring someone onto the stage to like in their handwriting, a random person sign his forehead or something. Wait a minute, wait a minute, a stunt, right? Some sort of evil can be like a motorcycle thing. Yeah, that's like 50, 50 on whether they make it or not. Polymarket would go wild with this. Yeah. That's that's, that's, that's, that's, way more fun. If I found out that like Travis Pistrano was going to risk his life at the halftime show, that entices me much more than anyone up there singing and dancing, even if

it's my favorite of all-time Elton John, which I don't know why they won't bring him around. I think he's retired. How old is he? Evergreen. 70-something. No, he's pretty old. He's pretty old. Yeah. The streak, though, he was a car YouTuber now. He's doing a Bugatti rebuild, but the guy, he did a polymarket bet that there'd be a streaker, and he was the streaker. and got like a $42,000 fine, I think, and made considerably more than that. Is he the guy doing the Bugatti rebuild?

He's going to great. The algorithm pushed him to me, like post-super Bowl. I'm watching this guy. Did he have to split the car at half to fix a crack tranny? Yes, you have to do that. And another good friend of ours, Matt Armstrong, is helping him out, who's kind of the biggest car YouTuber on Earth at the moment.

I think he thanks him in the video. thing. Yeah. Wait, did he win the money? Because the guy I saw, he didn't streak, he still had pants on. That's streaking. No, no, you have to be naked to streak. Polymarket is. I don't know what the polymarket definition is, but I assume he disrode, and he ran onto the field. I think that's streaking. I think that's a push. I don't know if I give that full credit for streaking.

He was like, if I don't see an asshole, then he hasn't struck. I thought that streaking the whole crux of it was the nudity. I mean, I need to see some sort of impromptu helicopter before I pay out. Yeah, Polymarket got hosed there. He cheated. Well, it seems impossible that Polymarket's going to pay out on something that you can do yourself to fulfill, right? Like, it seems like that would be a reasonable exclusion. That's their problem.

You know, I feel like I'd take Polymarket to court. You know, I streaked, struck, and they owe me 80. $5,000. I want my money. You said they find him $42,000? That seems impossible. He'd done this before. This guy's kind of a legend. That's awesome.

Polymarket wasn't even a thing. He was just a love of the game guy. I like that. I'm glad he got his cat. Did he win a bet twice? I believe so. Yeah. I'm not super-deper familiar, but I saw it in the same way that he got hyper-recommended to me by all the

algorithms this week that that was. I like this guy. I would watch an evil-cnevil jump, but I want to see him crash. Like, I really do want to see him get hurt. You know, that's half the point.

And if he doesn't trash the first time, I'd want him to go like... You were just talking about how it was mean to let a snake bite a dick. And now you want to see people hurt? The snake can't consent. Evil can-eval is named evil fucking can-eval for a reason.

You see that jump shoot he's wearing? You think he picks flowers for a living? No, he jumps over fountains over fountains and crashing. I think exhuming his corpse and taping it to a life. Keeping it to a bike would be in poor taste, Kyle. I think he only crashed because I sabotaged the bike to win a bet on Polly Market. Will he make it or not? You could bet on that.

That would be such a cool bet to have. Will he make it or not? Dude, that's going to be the entire economy. Towards an evil can evil show. In like a year, the economy will be Kyle on Polly Market, changing to different ethnic names, gambling on whether or not someone will deliver him a double meat burrito in the next half hour. And if you don't know, Kyle changes his name to fit the restaurant he's ordering from. And the profile picture.

So for Mexican food, I have Angelo Lopez, and he's this very kindly looking older Mexican gentleman. He's smiling in the photo. It looks like a real photo. He's clearly a model because he's like a, he just looks so happy and cheerful and welcoming. And my hope is that, you know, they give Angelo some extra salsa or they throw in an extra scoop of meat and they do especially the Chinese the Chinese take care of their own they'll send

me a little fucking smiley face note and they'll be like it'll be chopped full of sauces it'll be spicy as hell and they'll be like extra crab rang goons and egg rolls in there and shit it's like a wink wink we got you fellow chink kind of thing damn they don't tell you about this but Kyle

Goldberg gets bagels with no holes in him that's what they don't tell the Gentiles about the solid discs that they eat. That's secret toys never know. All new items. Yeah, I think it worked. But, anyway, don't you think that the AI stuff

is going to hurt the magic industry like in a meaningful fashion? It feels like that is one of the at-risk things in the, especially in the content space because it's just getting so easy to, I mean, fake everything. Yeah, I mean, I don't know

who could get hit harder than the magic community by AI. you're right. They're going to have to like to return to tradition, just like Chris Angel on the street, real time. David Blame. Yeah. David. Or Houdini. Yeah. What do you mean home? Do you remember when David Blaine sat in that block of ice, like in front of the crowd for days? No, I liked the videos where it's like Chris Angel walking past like five groups of Asians and six groups of white people to get to one group of black people and be like, oh, serendipitously, how about you guys? Start doing magic for them.

As I'm thinking about, like, listening to what Taylor says that, like, the online version of them is going to be completely ruined. People won't believe it anymore. They're going to have to take to the streets to do it for real. The porn community faces the same problem and has the same solution. They're going to be able to make any video they want at this point, and they're going to have to take to the streets and, you know, do their wares in person. Yeah. They're going to have to be like, you can tell this is real because we're in a Delta lounge. There's an ad that plays.

There's a pre-roll ad that plays before porn, and it's like an AI girl. And she's like, hey there, guys, AI porn is here, and it's fucking good. And then the music starts, do do do-da-dun-d-da-dun-da-dun-da-da-da-da. And it's just like an AI girl getting fucked by a million dicks while she moans and stuff. Like, subscribe now. Get your own AI girlfriend, slave slut. And I'm going to skip. All right, back to the shit porn.

to a little scatological content. Motherless is the worst. Motherless is the fucking worst, dude. I'm just looking for like a cute girl on Omega giggling, like, or something like that. But I end up like seeing like shit couple episode 18. And it's like a husband and wife who have like covered each other in shit like they're Arnold Schwarzenegger hiding from the fucking predator.

Like they're trying to fool. thermal imaging with the with the with the thoroughness of the shit caked upon their bodies that's a republicans ruined porn they took all the reasonable loving videos away and and the only video sites still left standing are the ones that don't care about the law the slightest so you're just like nothing's illegal nothing's illegal there scats cat's not against the law it's just incredibly distasteful and their their their sorting system makes it difficult because what i like do is surf through top favorite it. I want the connoisseurs of

Motherless to aggregate this pornography for me. I don't want to be picking through new, you know, seeing what's out there going through amateur. Probably there's a weird shit in there too. So I'm sticking maggots in their dick or something. I've seen that before too. It's like, what are you doing, bro? Why would you show people the maggot dick? I don't need to see that.

That should be illegal. And you open his profile, and it's nothing but that. It's all he's into it. And every time, Kyle revisits, it's the same thing. I'm like those maggots don't seem happy. They can sign up for that. God, it's awful. I don't know why I don't just make a fucking account on a reasonable website.

I just want to see ditties. Because they want your driver's license. It's a little annoying. I don't want to give you my driver's license. It's not just annoying. There's a privacy invasion. Like, I don't want them to know what I like. I don't want any of you to know what I like.

Yeah, that's fair. I mean, you've hinted far too much over the years. I've got a pretty solid picture. I've got one of those memories where it's like noted, noted. Didn't one of them get hacked the other day? Wasn't there a big porn site hack where they got everybody's identity? Oh my, I didn't hear about that. I wouldn't be surprised, you know?

Like Discord is now wanting, you know, to verify with ID or maybe a face picture or something like that. And it's like, I don't mind that at all. I don't do anything on Discord. I'm not. I wouldn't like show you right here on screen. But still, I don't trust Discord with my information. I don't think they can keep it safe. Back to Team Speak.

Oh, we gotta go. It's so bad. Yeah, it's not great. It's so bad. Like, the quality's fine. Like, once you get into our room and you're talking to your buddies, like, we're here. But getting there is a little bit annoying and it's ugly. And Discord's so slick with all the, you know, the little sub-discords on the panel.

It's, I like Discord. an embarrassingly long time to get my arms around Discord. I still struggle with like, I do some things that aren't normal because I'm, I'm Whitties Gamer Tags or like, I get too many frame requests and stuff, so I have to shut all that shit down, and then I have to unlock it,

which I do very rarely. So I still have to hunt and pack to like turn privacy stuff on and all. But I mostly have my arms around it, but I don't think it was intuitive at all. I just, I don't either, but I feel like you and I don't use it enough.

It feels, I was on there all. all day. So he's vibe. Yeah. And it seems it seems so similar to Skype to me. Like the the, the big difference between this and Skype is that, you know, you create the your own little sub discords that you can go off into like one like for all your hobbies and all your interests. That's the group of guys that do that thing. We've done it for like trips before. It's like if we're all going to go on this trip together, we all make our own little discord. Now everything's cataloged and

searchable and we can find itinerary items and stuff. I like that a lot. And then within each sub-Discort, obviously you've got all your, like, on hours, you know, we've got what memes, weed, music, sports. Think they'll back off the ID thing? Discord? What's the impetus of it? Like, that's the question, right?

Is it like people, they're worried people getting groomed on there? I think they're worried about getting a Roblox-like lawsuit against them, and they're trying to get ahead of that. I just saw a story last week where some, like, creep, kidnap some little girl or something off of Roblox, like, you know. It's creepy people on Roblox. I don't know.

I've never played... I've never played Roblox. I feel like a boomer. I think it's like Gary's mod where you do a bunch of shit. And this is a bunch of mods in there. You can do lots of different stuff within the same game or something like that. But I've never played it. I've never seen it.

I just know it's got those square fucking soldiers shoulders from that Kanye video. Oh, and that was basically. And I know the pedophiles are there. And they're rampant. So I... Apparently that's it. Yeah. The reason the pedophiles are there is because that's where the kids are playing.

Right. Yes, it's not just time. Yeah. They don't they don't just love Roblox. Oh, I know. Yeah. I mean,

it just seems like where like 13 to like 16 year olds like like that's their thing is Roblox. Hmm. There's so many good looking games and that's so ugly. I guess I'm guessing it's a social thing too. You know, like you're playing on there with your friends from school and shit. I don't know what it costs. I bet there's a if it's if it's like Gary's mod,

then you'd have this huge variety. of shit to do, right? Yeah. So what game are you guys into now? I'm always behind. I've been arc raiders lately. I'm looking forward to Marathon, which comes out March 5th. They're both extraction shooters.

Peanut right now is playing marathon, like in this private session, against the bungee developers. And I was like so hype for it. I could hardly tear myself to go do this show. He kills a bungee developer. And he's like still alive crawling, sort of begging. And he's like, Mr. Developer, do you feel powerful right now? Do you feel in control? And he takes his knife and he stabs it in his chest and steals all his loot.

And he's like, these guys know what they're doing. I recommend we trade out everything in our loadouts for their loadouts. It's better than anything we have. And he's just, he's all excited and I'm jazz. And I'm going to watch the bod after this. Nice. Hope the game doesn't disappoint. Me too.

I'm not playing anything now, but there are a few RTSs that are coming out later this year that I'm hyped for. I like real-time strategy games. I like games that you can put tons of hours in, and so I'm excited for it. Because it's also in a universe that I like, the Warhammer 40K stuff. I don't know if you're familiar with that, but it's super nerdy space marine shit, and I eat that up with a spoon. What's the game called again? They're doing a total war, and then they're doing another one that's like, it's not, it's, I always forget the name.

I'm more excited to the non-total war one. Because I already, you know what I expect with Total War Games. Not that they're bad or anything. They're very fun. They're not quite deep enough. Yeah, Don of War IV is the other one. It looks to me, like, I don't know anything about the Don of War series, but it looks a lot like Starcraft or something,

how you build, like, bases with individual buildings to construct each unit and acquire resources and swarm each other and shit. But you'll be doing it with Warhammer 40K units that I'm, like, super interested in. So I'm hyped for that. that too, both of those games. Do you game ever, Ed, or just no time what's at all? Literally, I just chase kids around and play with cars when I can, but I was, I was on a drive rally that we did for the McLaren F1 Owners Club. We had to borrow a $25 million car,

and Vince from Call of Duty in Battlefield was there. And so he was great to get to know. Unfortunately, he passed away like two weeks later in a car accident, but a super nice guy and obviously like the most accomplished game developer. So fun to kind of hear his tales of business and games and all the fun. That's sad. Are there cheaper McLaren's? Yes. Okay.

So McLaren, they made the most legendary supercar kind of of our era, the F1, which from 94 to 97, but they only made 106 of those. And then kind of in a new iteration of the business, they came back in 2012 and made the MP412C, which has gone on to develop. Now they have the 750s. And so a very different product. They also did the partnership with Mercedes to do the SLR in the mid-2000s. So I think I was on here and talked about having the one that Paris Hilton,

Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan were driving around and flash the world. And so there's kind of three phases of McLaren's business life. But the F-1 is kind of our generation's 250 GTO. So, yeah, one just sold for a record $25 million a few weeks ago. It's been a wild time in the big money car industry. There's a streamer I watch who has a McLaren. And I don't know what that means. Could that mean $100,000, $400,000, $1 million, $4 million?

Maybe any of those. It can mean just about anything. I have probably one of the cheapest ones. It was a flood titled 2017-570 GT, which is kind of their entry-level thing. And it's probably worth 75, 85 grand all the way up to, yeah, that's a 720S. That's a 750S. So they've got molded bumpers. They didn't do a huge evolution between the 720 and 750.

But that's a 350, 400 car. Okay. Yeah. It's fantastic. Wonderful to drive. Somewhat unreliable. That's a 720. And so you could get those around 200 in the pre-owned market.

but wonderful cars to drive when they work a little finicky electronically. They leak coolant like crazy, but you know, it's all you manage. Fuck. They leak coolant like crazy? Yeah, they would be furious. Sealing that system up. And so a lot of the clamps that they use kind of wear out over time, which is odd. And so there's a lot of preventative maintenance that people advise in terms of managing

oil flow and cooling and things of that nature. But the reason that is is that they are head. and shoulders better from a performance perspective than a lot of the stuff from Ferrari or Lamborghini that would be a bit more reliable, but just doesn't have the same feel. So there's a lot going for them. And it's with people continue to believe it's worthwhile. But it's a bit of a challenge. And so it causes a lot of depreciation in most of their cars, although there have been some some nice shining moments. The special edition cars they've done would be like a P1, a SENA, speed tail that can be anywhere from, you know, two, three, four million dollars.

I like that these cars at least look sick. Like the McLaren looks cool. And I'm a car novice. But all the Ferraris I've seen look cool. All the Lamborghinis look sick. They're so neat. The one of those like elite car companies that just can't hang is Porsche. Like, Porsche just cannot hang aesthetically with those guys.

And it seems like their thing is like, yeah, we are so secure in our design. We don't even have to change it ever. And it's like, yeah, it looks boring, though. Name a Porsche that might change his mind. Well, the most legendary of the modern era would be a Carrera GT. So if we look up one of those, it looks like the Laura Baimod. It is a wonderful driving car and a popular choice amongst, you know, driver-focused people. That is a GT3RS.

And so you're right that when you look at the 9-11 is one of the longest running cars that has never been, like, totally reinvented. but they have turned into that which is, you know, wings. It looks like a Volkswagen beetle. Yeah. Like,

it looks like if the beetle was an actual animal, this is like the male of the species. Is this the one? And the traditional one we've seen is the animal. So look at, there we go. So that is a car that was really an abandoned racing effort. So it's got an amazing V10 engine.

It's a very, very driver-focused car. They only made about 1,300 of them. They did not sell all the, that well when they were new at about $450,000 between 2004 and 2005. But now they are about $2 million and, you know, very, very highly prized by collectors, pushrod suspension, really, really cool stuff. I can see, look, I'm sure this is a wonderful car.

And I can see how, especially in this angle, it rivals the McLaren, but it still falls short to my eye. I can't verbalize why. It's just not quite there. the bug thing. It's an execution as opposed to something Italian or British. And that's because quality has always been at the forefront. So this is a car.

You could daily drive. You could put a lot of miles on. It's something, especially in a 9-11, there's really no limitation. You're not compromising anything. And so there's a lot to be said there, but it is not naturally as exciting as you would have with a car that's not as good. And so there's a pride that Porsche owners have in not having to worry that, a $250,000 transmission is going to explode or something like that that we enjoy about some of our

more finicky cars. So it's, you know, to me, I like slightly older supercars from the 90s and 2000s that give us a little bit more uncertainty. I think since I was on here last, I'd mentioned that I had secured the Victoria's Secret Lamborghini Diablo that was sold out of the LaGrault catalog in 98. We finally got that thing running and it's going around to shows and everybody loves it. I actually found a set of Facebook marketplace, Victoria's Secret Wings from the models that they were supposed to have destroyed, but someone managed to survive. So we're having fun with that. I bought my Bugatti a couple of years ago now, and the issue's always been tires for those. How is your Bugatti?

$160,000 on a new set of wheels and tires. As I described, I was able to get some cheap Chinese replicas made that accommodate normal tires that don't have to be glued on. to go 250 miles an hour. And so the last couple months have been testing those. And fortunately, we went 200 miles an hour on them, and they seemed just fine. Where did you get 200? A car club out of Europe had rented out. That's it.

The Titusville runway, which is at NASA Kennedy Space Center. And so we got to go out there. Unfortunately, it was raining. So they didn't let us go all three miles, but still, it doesn't take too long for that car to get to 200 miles an hour. That's cool. Whatever I see is always like compare them to this Corvette. that I've linked over here.

Zach, link this Corvette because it's like, it's a use, it's $65,000. And, yeah, but corvettes are made out of like melted Tupperware. Yes, it is lasting, but it is a wonderful car. And for $65,000, you really can't do any better. It's reliable. It's easy. It's comfortable. It's, you know, there are people that consider the mid-engine Corvette to not be as true to the

lineage of some of the front-engine cars, you know, old. But there is so much to be said. It is also becoming because of that, like it's an incredible residual value. That was pretty much the starting MSRP in 2020. So they really have not depreciated that massively. And it's making them really, really good track cars because people can mile them up, beat them up, and then somebody will still buy it down the road. So you can't ever beat a car like a Porsche or a Corvette from a performance perspective.

It's just other things that kind of make them interesting. And, you know, my target has always been find something rare. or find something significant and find something that's at least 10 to 15 years old, because you tend to have kind of the bottom of the depreciation or value curve, and you're primed in most cases for things to start going up if they ever will. And that has worked quite well because I just buy them too recklessly, overly leverage with financing, before the more rational members of my age cohort that love them when we were kids as well, kind of catch up and buy them.

And that causes them to go up in value after I buy them, which is fun. Well, good for you. It seems like so many people in the car YouTube space are making just home run swings financially. Are there many stories of car YouTubers striking out? Like you know what? I bought this piece of shit from $900,000. But if I fix it, I think it's worth the million and it doesn't go like they hope. Does that happening at all?

Yes, it absolutely is. And the car YouTube space is one of the more. susceptible content creation spaces to the Mr. Beast like Bet the Farm mentality, especially these car build channels and things like that where they have success with a $50,000 car, then they buy a $200,000 car. They try to buy a $500,000 car. And then there's only so far up you can go because a lot of these cars just don't get total or they truly are not repairable.

And so the greatest example of this is a very good friend of mine that I do car truck with Freddie Tavares Hernandez. And so he bought that flooded P1. He just bought a portion 918, the last portion that we showed that it caught on fire in Canada. And these are monumental scope rebuilds. They are not something that you can just go order parts or steal parts off another crash car. Like you're talking about re-engineering cars on a YouTube budget, which is generally not feasible. So he's three years into the repairs on his P1, and it still is not in the vicinity of function.

But that being said, it still generates great view. He's made 20 videos or so on the car. That's the 9-18. And it is that damage. That's obviously an AI enhanced thumbnail photo. But the back half of it is melted. And that one, Porsche still sells the parts for because they're Porsche. The McLaren, they don't.

And so he's got his work cut out for him. But he was correct that those were the magnitude of cars that were required to sort of guarantee the video performance. So, and I'm sure you guys see this to an extent just based on the age of the channel and the longevity of high viewership is that, you know, you have people who subscribed five, eight, ten years ago and their view habits on YouTube are wildly different now. So they may not have unsubscribe. They just don't tune in nearly as often. And inherently, that scores your videos poorly in the way the algorithms work. So most of us that had more than a million subscribers prior to 2020 are seeing some level of kind of 10 to 20% a year. decline and that's natural. It makes sense that there's, you know, more of an economic opportunity in the space. There's higher quality content coming in that we need to compete with and the volume of content that we compete with is so much higher. And, you know, you can kind of accept that and age gracefully or you can try to reinvent the wheel and bet the farm and buy whatever it takes.

And I think that both are valid paths. It just comes down to exactly what makes the business model and the lifestyle makes sense for you. So there are plenty of examples of guys. that have, you know, gotten out over their skis and gotten too much of a, either a fleet of cars or bought the wrong cars and had them go down. That being said, for the last five years, that's been a very hard thing to do because the car market as a whole has done so, so well, especially 21 to 24. Over the last couple of years, we're starting to see more of a decline, especially in the more like the McLaren's that we saw, a Lamborghini hurricane, the higher production stuff is definitely

softening, but the truly rare collectible cars in the 90s and 2000s are stratospheric. Like the Kuntosh? Go ahead. Like the Kuntosh? That's one of those, right? Yeah. So Kuntash is in the last five years have probably three X'd and in the last 10 years of 10xed. So you're talking about buying one at any point along the curve has been a great outcome. and just the number of cars transacting at high numbers between the online marketplaces like bring a trailer in cars and bids and obviously the in-person auctions like rm suhubbies gooding all these they're just it's crazy so yeah and kassimi a few weeks ago there was a massive Ferrari collection sold and every single car set a new record for whatever it was not by 20 percent but by like a hundred percent and it has sort of turned the world on its head and introduced potentially some interesting risks to the industry more so than a benefit. Think of it as like Logan Paul buying Pokemon cards rather than Pokemon enthusiasts buying Pokemon cards. So we're running towards the line where big significant rare cars that are

already seven figures become more of an investment class like art or real estate for people that are playing with massive asset allocation portfolios, as opposed to the guys like me that want to buy them and drive the wheels off of them. And when you start thinking about like a guy who plays Pokemon every Thursday night at his local, you know, game room can't outbid Logan Paul for a card. So those just sort of are no longer in circulation for the enthusiast. And we're not there yet, but there are Steins that we may be headed in that way for some certain cars. And that's always happened with certain cars like a 250 GTO that was worth $50 to $75 million

but it's new kind of in this kind of era of cars when I hear like Logan Paul gets into Pokemon I hear temporary bump I might be wrong maybe I'm all way off but it's like he's not going to have a long term love of this

of Pokemon cards for example It's not a love he's buying huge vast amounts of cases of Pokemon cards and he's buying all the Charzards in existence like he's He's trying to do an in run around the market. Like he's buying lots of them. He must have a storage facility.

They're not in his garage. Like he would have to rent space for the amount of cards he's bought. I know that's a big thing in the Pokemon world is like not even Jake Paul or Logan Paul or whoever level guys. But you'll see posts online. And the guys are always getting flamed by like fans of whatever franchise, Pokemon, Magic to Gathering, whatever. Mostly I see it with Pokemon where it'll be like some 46-year-old guy will go to, like, like five different Walmarts and 10 different targets and he'll spend thousands and thousands of dollars buying up every single box of cards and then take a picture like of the back of his

truck and be like big hole the day and everyone online is like fuck you this is supposed to be for children and he's like get good and then I'm selling all this online so it's like I can't even really be that mad because he's you know he is he's taking advantage of this to make money, but it doesn't feel very sporting. He bought first edition booster boxes, six boxes for $2 million, with 36 packs each, and then

of course he bought that one Pikachu Illustrator card for $5.2 million, 5.275 million, I guess might as well say it wouldn't that much fucking money. Did you hear how he sold that one? Mm-mm.

I don't want to get it wrong, and I don't want to get sued, but it's my understanding he bought that card, And then he sold like fractions of it. Would you like to own 0.1% of this card? Would you like to own 0.2% of it? And everyone bought these like fractions of that card. And then he actually sold the card and told everyone to suck a dick who bought a fraction of it.

Oh, my. I hope I'm right on that. I didn't get it wrong. But let's, I think that's about right. How would that even work? How would you buy fractions of a Pokemon? You could buy it as an investment. If you stated a sale date or something in the future and they'd be buying equity

in the card and then they'd be paid out, you know, it'd be a way to finance a big card buy. Well, and that happens in a variety of industries. Masterworks does it for art. So if you can't buy a Picasso, then you can buy one percent of one, or if you can't buy a T-Rex skeleton, you can buy one percent of one. And so they've done that in the automotive space, there's a company called Rally. It used to be Raleigh Road that would let you do this. And again, it was just their timing could not have been better in terms of identifiable. the right kinds of cars to go up in value. So they closed out about half of their cars, I think,

in the last couple of years. At a meaningful 100% plus return over multiple years, but there is a specific SEC classification for fractionalizing ownership so that everything has to have its own entity and there are shares transacted so that you can't just say, well, I'm just gonna sell this thing and you guys have no input. Perhaps he paid them their dividends after the big sale of the car.

Oh, really? I think perhaps. I think he brought back ownership of the card and investors who held those fractions reported not receiving their fair share of the proceeds. Oh, so he may have had an option to buy them back at a fixed price and he decided that the true value of the card was beyond that price.

So he was potentially... Well, as an investor, you would read that contract and you would know that that was basically a cap on your earnings potential. Yeah. It's not even a cap, right? Just a denial. Well, it would be a cap. I'll hold on your money.

And then if it's ever worth 15, I'll just give you your 10 back and you sucked it. Well, no. I'm sure he gave them more than their 10 back. He gave them their equity. Oh, how are you so sure. Well, that's what we're describing. I don't know what he did. But he hasn't been sued and hasn't been forced to pay the money out.

So I would imagine that. L.M. has advised that unclaimed funds have been released and can now be withdrawn. Liquid Marketplace. I don't know what to read from that necessarily. Yeah, I don't know. He got a lot of, like, people were mad at him for screwing everybody over. Maybe he made it good in the end. I don't know.

It seems like what Ed's saying makes the most sense, that there was an option in there to buy it back. And there is a real business model there. I, you know, the most kind of well-known appreciation cars. have always been the Ferrari supercar, so the 288 GTO, F40, F50, Enzo, La Ferrari. And those have always had a good track record as kind of a blue chip go up in value because they would sort of entitle you to own the, to get allocated the next car. So as they come out about every 10 years. And so I had pitched an idea similar to this kind of before Raleigh got traction

to a wealthy local owner said, hey, at the time, we could have bought all five of them. for about $5 million. And, you know, an Enzo just sold for 18, just one of them. But so it would have worked. But at the same time, you're talking about managing a lot of stakeholders. And that was the issue for Rally is that the transactional velocity was never very high. So if you looked at the day-to-day values of shares, it was a third or half of what the car was really worth, because there wasn't any secondary demand to remarket the shares.

You did well if you held till the end. but if you ever wanted your capital out, it was very, very illiquid. But, you know, it's a space that does make some sense because people can't buy the whole thing. It's just so weird. It seems like he bought everyone out of their position. I don't understand if he gave them their original entry amount or if he gave them that amount plus some sort of capped profit margin. But either way, it seems like he followed like the policy of the website and everything was on the up and up, even if it upset people. This isn't even a cool looking

You know the actor that plays Furio and Sopranos? I do. I know what you're going to say. You might know this story, but he was in an auction and he saw a painting that was misidentified. And it was, I think, $67,000. He buys the painting. He takes it to a new appraiser.

And they're like, oh, this is a work of the great master. This is a $10 million painting. So it sells something for 10. But then when you consider that so many paintings and art are just like over-evaluated as a kind of tax scam, I'm like, I wonder what happened there. It sounds so mobby, the fact that he played a mobster in his crannos. I'm like, what happened here? How did this work out?

It is Bobby how the art world works. Sebastian by Italian Baroque master. Guacchino and it was appraised at roughly $10 million. I lost great work of art that had to found. Does it look good? Is it a good painting? It's, uh, it's, because I'm more okay with the fraud if it's a good painting than like, I bought red stripe. Like, and it's just a red.

That's a whole white canvas. Yeah. I think it is a good painting. Yeah, Lincoln. I want to see if this is a good painting. Yeah, that's a good painting. That's a real deal painting. I mean, I guess I don't have an appreciation for these things. It looks like it lacks detail to me. Was that supposed to be a saint?

I think I read it already, but I've already forgotten who that's supposed to be. Yeah, St. Sebastian. I don't know who St. Sebastian is, but I guarantee he got filled with arrows and like never renounced his, I think I saw this in a Vikings TV show. I think that he like prayed to God and he survived like a whole bunch of arrows. And then the Viking is like, and he lived? Well, no, then they beat him to death with a club. Can you pull that back up, Zach?

Somehow, that painting, if you told me it was a $10 million work of art by a great master, I'm like, okay, that is kind of what great master, if you told me your sister-in-law painted that and then she's getting pretty good, I'd also be like, yeah, yeah. I mean, the face is a little weird, but everyone struggles with those. backgrounds, but as you're sitting there. That would be so funny. The face is a little weird, but everybody struggles with that, sweetheart.

Right? Maybe if you saw it in real life, the brushstrokes are like so tiny like pixels that you can appreciate the... Your sister-in-law kind of phoned in everything but the person, but okay. Really heavy lighting on the oblique, but, you know... She really took time on those cum gutters I noticed.

That's a sister of yours is a rotten apple. She does what she likes. I don't know. Something about the... He's in sky. The subject's yearning face looks like how the people in great art look. He's looking to God for help.

Yeah, but look at his yearning face. That's very much old, old art. Right? His yearning face? His yearning face or his... He's a culture on us here. You know what? Really? The critique?

would be he should be more anguished. Yeah, I don't know if he's aware that he's been shot by two arrows. If I were shot by two arrows, I would cry. Oh, here's this guy's story. All right, so this is... I look like that when I'm hungry. So, again, this is St. Babson. He was initially tied to a poster tree and shot with arrows,

and though this did not kill him, he was according to tradition rescued and healed by Irene of Rome, which became a popular subject in 17th century painting. In all versions of the story shortly after his recovery, he went to Diocletian to warn him about his sins, and as a result, he was clubbed to death. He has venerated in Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church as the patron saint of athletics, archery, and plagues.

The patron saint of athletics. See, that's why he's jacked. That's why he's like, yeah. It's got to be the low average on the Ocean City Beach Patrol. He can't be the patron saint of athletics. I bet he can run for days. Maybe that's his thing. Maybe he's like a marathon guy.

How many arrows could you take? Oh, like so few. I would throw such a tantrum. I die on the first one. Yeah, I can't take one. I don't get shot with a fucking arrow. It's interesting that you, I don't remember a ton about Diocletian,

but I seem to remember he played for keeps. And so going to him and being like, you're full of sin, he probably saw that there was a possibility that would go really poorly. It did go poorly, but yeah. It's not friendly advice. Yeah.

There were like very, how many emperor, were there that would have been tight with that. That would have been like, oh, thanks for stopping by. Like Marcus Aurelius. That was definitely during the Christian persecution times. Yeah, that was pre-Constantine. That's why they were shooting him with the arrows.

Actually, was this pre-Constantine? Yeah. Yes, it was pre-Constantine. Otherwise, you know, he would have been out of line. Yeah, they flipped the script on that. Hmm. There's a lot of really, really nasty Roman emper. not a ton of really chill ones.

That's true, yeah. I mean, if they gave you... Although even the best ones weren't chill at all. Like, like Marcus Aurelius was not chill. He tried to be a stoic, but he also was like, he went hard on the pain sometimes. Then you got like Hadrian. He was like all about, you know, solidifying.

Which one would get down in the arena and like fight people? Oh, that wasn't... Nero, that was the guy who dressed like Heracles. What the fuck was his name? Comedus. Comedus, yes. That is the emperor from

the Gladiator movie. He was the son of Marcus Aurelius. Yeah. That makes sense. Okay. Yeah. Ridley Scott, teaching us history. Ridley Scott. Big shout out. Thanks. Did you see the sequel to that? No, I heard from everyone that it was so bad as to like, don't even

let it enter your mind as part of the canon of this. It was so bad. What are we talking about? They made a gladiator. They never really? They did Gladiator two like a year or two ago and it was just bad. It's so bad. How old is Gladiator? Like 20 years old? 2000. Came out 2000. 25, six years. It was just a high point for movies not just because it was when we consume them all right? No, it's definitely not hindsight being 2020 and you know all that stuff. It's that movie's were better. They were better, though.

Like, they were better. You had Gladiator in 2000. In the, in the midst of the Lord of the Wayne's franchise, Gladiator came out. Think about that. A nice little way. So during the huge profitability of the DVD era, from the like late, very late 90s to like 2010, 2015, somewhere in there, movies had a second chance to earn their money back and prove to the studio that middle of the road, direct. writers, producers, and actors should get their chance. And so they could make these movies that were these middle of the road budgets, too,

these $30 to $80 million movies that were kind of experimental and odd. They wouldn't be as focus group heavy and as hands-on as a studio because they don't just have one shot at this. So many movies when they got to DVD, that's where they blew up and would make more than their cost back and more than their promotion fees back. That market's gone. Like, that's completely evaporated. My thoughts adjacent to Kyle's, which is now the measurement that people are looking for is kind of like hours watched.

And talent has moved to TV shows. At this point, if you tell me you have a great 90 minute story to tell me, I'm like, get the fuck out of here. 90 minutes isn't enough time to tell a story anymore. You know, like, you're going to introduce the characters, kill one, and then that's it? Whatever. I'm with you. Movies. I've watched so many good TV.

shows because that is the norm now that when I do watch a movie I'm like man this is moving quick oh this is really sweet it's a two and a half hour movie it's like they're really getting on with this there's no like we didn't get to see him go back home and drink a beer cry in the darkness or whatever a TV show would give you those little extra character moments I'm watching the section of deadpool three which somehow took 12 hours to tell I don't know movie fucking sucks so hard it's a terrible movie that's one of those times when you and I completely agree on something that's one of those clocks right twice of day moments where we both hate it.

It's so bad. It's so stupid. It's so overblown. And it made so much goddamn money. The one I saw was bad. The Deadpool one. Well, you're wrong. You have bad taste. No, it was the same thing. It was just him being like, I'm a little out there. And then doing like silly fourth wall breaking shit to hold on.

Like when he got pegged by the hot chick. That's the only scene he did like. We talked about this already. That was the only scene I was in love with that. It's worn out on the video. You don't even listen when I talk. Again, I am reclaiming my time. I'm reclaiming my time. I've decided that's a fun thing to do in real conversation now.

I'm reclaiming. The gentleman from Missouri would pipe the fuck down. When the lady at the restaurant starts reading the specials and she gets halfway through and I realize I'm not going to get any of those, I'm reclaiming my time. I'll be ordering off menu. Thank you. I forget what we were talking about.

But mentally, I was going, you're just a distraction, Kyle. The Dow is over 50,000. And you're taking away from my accomplishments. How dare you distract from all of the successes of Donald Trump? How dare you keep us behind her going? Mean mugging her. All he did is ban, a couple of children.

We should be talking about the NASDAQ right now. Fucking cunt. Fucking cunt. I can't even say what I told Chis. I hope she has a wonderful love. Fucking cunt. God, the woman is evil. They're all evil.

Who's the press secretary? What is her name? The, I like her. The blonde one, yeah. Yeah. So I have this thought. Carolyn Levitt, right?

Carolyn Levitt is going to have a horrible life. Everyone in this Trump administration pedophile cover up, nonsense is going to have a stain on them, a scarlet letter that they wear for the rest of their lives. And that bitch is like 28. She has 60 years of misery coming her way. Her husband is going to be dead in like 15 years. That kid will spend most of its life with dad dead. And their family is going to be cursed with this horrific pedophile cover up that they're doing. There's nothing but misery for them and it starts really soon in like 18 months.

Your son. Age gap. Big age gap. Age gap. Her husband is like 60 something. 64. Yeah. And she's pregnant. The boy, can't even bored yet. She's got the baby. She's like got the baby at the podium and shit sometimes. Am I wrong? I thought she just got pregnant.

Maybe she got knocked up a second time. I don't like when he's literally got a baby in the White House. Yeah, I'm not here for any. that. I want to talk about the TV show. I've been watching real quick, though, because I know y'allel like Billy Bob. Amazon made a TV show called Goliath. There's four seasons of it already out. It feels a lot like Better Call Saul, but it's Billy Bob Thornton. He's playing like an alcoholic lawyer who's got a huge case against a military, uh, industrial company. And so he's being

fucked with. His investigations being messed with by like mysterious figures. And, uh, it's really good. the head of the law firm he's going against is like a batman villain he lives in this dark pit house office and he uses this dog clicker to talk to people he's like click click click click click like punctuating his sentences he's a burn victim and half of his face is melted like a bond villain and he uses red light all the time so whenever you go to his very dark office he's bathed in red light and it reflects in his glasses and it makes it look like he's got demonized sometimes and he watches the proceedings through CCTV and even that's red light and he's in there again like a batman vent he's like no like he's ridiculous it's a really good show there's he the opposing attorney

uh billy bob thornton is bringing he is suing the military industrial company for a wrongful death that he's investigated that has they've made it look like a suicide maybe and he's trying to prove there wasn't a suicide it was something else and uh i think there's like i said there's four But you get the story I just described wrapped up in season one like a whistleblower Situation like where they killed someone who was like they're doing illegal stuff or I don't want to spoil the plot but something kind of like that like the company fucked up now somebody's dead and they Don't want to take ownership for it because they were doing some bad shit when he died basically and Billy Bob is I do like Billy Bob he looks healthier in this all right so in land man he looks

He looks he looks bad he looks like a bad fall would would end his career give him a break he is I'm just saying I'm a big fan. I watched every episode. All right? I watched. I like Billy Bob. Just saying he looks beat, beat down. He's 70. You're going to look old at 70. He looks at 78,000. He looks so old, and he's so hunched over, and he drives a 250 Ford. So when he gets out, he looks so little and shriveled. But what I'm saying is, Goliath was made like 10 years ago. He's took a little pet in him. He was like 60. He can get around a little. He looks fine. He looks. He's still kind of handsome. It doesn't, it's not weird when he's with a beautiful one. woman or something like that. Because in this new show, I'm just like, nobody wants you,

Billy Bob. God damn, you look like you're dying. You look like you're dying, Billy Bob. I mean, I don't think he's dying. The oil business.

I don't think he's ever going to match Bad Santa. No. Bad Santa is so awesome. That's just a great movie. That's the personification of his like, down as a mean, son of a bitch.

That was his anchorman. That's a good way to put. How did, how did that almost slumification? slip through. Is it because it's too dirty? It feels like that should be a movie that people say more during the Christmas season like, hey, let's watch Bad Santa. But it just doesn't pop up. Everyone's always about Elf and the classics. Elf is so much better than Bad Santa. For me, it's National

Lampereg's Christmas Vacation is my number one. And then Bad Santa is definitely in the top three that we rewatch every year. And then I don't watch Elf. I don't like Elf. I think it's fine. It's fine. Like I saw it twice. I think it's an okay movie, but I don't like I sometimes watch the snowball fight scene in isolation just to see. But he just wrecks those kids. All year round. You know, they're like pinned down.

There's snowballs just like popping against metal structures or whatever. They're ducking behind. And Will Ferrell turns the kid and goes, you know, I think we can take them. He's like, what? And then you hear like the sounds of pigeon wings flapping or something.

And there's a pyramid of snow. balls. Each one of them perfect. And then he fires them like a paintball gun, just throwing ropes in everybody. And it is one of my favorite superhero movies. Oh, you see it as a superhero movie. Clearly.

And Bad Tanna, I believe he's a shit out of those kids with the skateboard and he's punched him in the mouth and stuff like that. And then later on he's in the locker room and he's just like beat up some kids today. It made me feel like I did something good. Maybe I would like that. Maybe I need to give him that a chance.

Because those kids were being ruthless To that fat kid Oh yeah They're bull the shit out of that fat snotty kid Yeah Not snotty kid yeah Not snotty like attitude Snoddy literal snot

I'll just hit YouTube And be like Bullies getting it Like here's top ten bullies Getting their asses kicked And I know That uh that detective scene Where you know

Who stole your shoes You know the fucking LeBron's You know what I'm talking about Then he goes And he gets in The fucking sneakers you want it He gets to the kid's house. He gets his dad to bring the kid out,

you know, so they can handle it, not even tell mom. He puts on brass knuckles and beats the shit out of dad. And the kid's crying. Stop and stop it. He's like, what?

I thought you got off to shit like this. It was like, you know, to the kid. But the kid's a bully. So he kind of, you know, it was like,

yeah. It was all fun. He's like, you make me come back. He's like, if I have to come back here, what did you say? Something close to.

I will. but fuck your father with your mother's decapitated skull. It's not a little close. That kid's going to have problems. Something I'm not going to have a problem. That fat's not a kid. That little fat detective song. That little ginger bit.

You need some other help. Like everybody likes seeing like a mean bully get what's coming, but sometimes, and I bet you see this too, Woody. There will be clips of stuff. and it relies on the narrator, like not even the narrator in the video, but the person posting it where they're like, trust me, the video may look like this is a random person

being horribly assaulted and maimed, but they were actually being rude. And then you watch it and it's like, no, this is like you run a bullying account, but now you're just posting assaults because you ran out. And so you're like having to build up like a whole lore around it. That like, believe me, this guy was like throwing bags of piss of kids

playgrounds. It's like, I don't think so. I think you just are trying to slip on past the goalie here. Fight porn is a pretty good subreddit on Reddit, obviously. And they don't do any of that. They'll just be like, you know, this dude needs to keep his hands up. Watch for yourself. And I'm so happy, it's never like bully gets what's coming to him. And there's no bullying that happens in the video. The big guy won what I'm supposed to believe the little one was bullying the big one until he finally stood up for himself. Like that's a thing that happens. Oh, do you remember that this is from probably 15 years ago, I bet all of you remember the fat Australian kid who was getting bullied by this little rat weasel kid.

And then eventually the fat kid just was like, and just like seized him by the like waist, inverted him and then slammed him on the ground. And the kid's all woozy and everything. And there was like an 18 inch tall structure. It might have been like a little fence or laying. landscaping timber, but that's what the little guy's ankle lands on. And the little guy gets up and can't walk well. I don't know what the extent of his injuries are, but that

slam on his ankle on what might have been a stack of landscaping timber. They're like interviewed him later. The fat kid's like he was, you know, he just saw him when he dies in a ride, getting bullied. This is my favorite. Like Justice Sir video. Everybody wants to see this. It's called Indian Shop Owner Beats Up Thief in America. Like this black guy is is behind the counter with a trash can, you know, like one of those big roller trash cans, and he's emptying all the tobacco products into it. Like, must be thousands of dollars

once he gets a few dozen cartons of smokes. And there's a black guy filming it, and he's telling, like, the Indian shopkeepers, ain't nothing you can do. Ain't nothing you can do. You got insurance. And then comes some Indian out of the back with a fucking broomstick.

And they start whooping this guy's ass. And one of them's holding him down on the ground. And the other one is swinging this broom stick like a fucking Marvel superhero these top down 12 to 6 chops on this guy's calves shins, knees, and his

ass and it's like a child getting spanked how they like turned the part you hit last away like he's doing that writhing on the floor and the guy filming is like uh huh uh huh that's called hopping your ass and it's so satisfying

because there's nobody to help this It's just two Indian shopkeepers and a broomstick. And they give him all they got. They beat the shit out of this guy. And they saved the garbage. Are you watching the video? What flies out at like 149, maybe 147? I'm watching.

I'm trying to see. Oh, his shoe came off. No, it didn't. What the fuck was that? Oh, I think he broke something that may have been in the man's pocket, or maybe he broke a bit of plastic off the stick. Oh, that might have been a phone? Maybe there's a phone in his pocket

and he hit it with such force it exploded and pieces shot out of his pocket because he is hitting him like so goddamn hard. You can see him begin to tire. Zach thinks it's his keys. It might be there. That's a long implement to hit.

The velocity at the end is a lot more than it is at his hands. It's one of those big boy broomsticks. It's like an inch and a half, two inches thick or something. It's somewhere between a broomstick and a baseball bat, but five feet long. Yes, I love that video. Good for him. A whole time great favorite.

Defending his castle. Oh, I bet I know you know this one. I think it's a marijuana shop where like they're robbing him and he stabs him from the top and the guy robbing him is like, I'm dead. Like a kid playing Xbox. You know, when you know you're about to die. You're like, I'm dead. You're kind of softening the blow for your friends to see you like

pop up in the kill feed. This guy does that while getting stabbed to death in real life. But there's no, there's no startup A real quick. Yeah. I don't think he responds. Yeah, no. Yeah, shouldn't rob that Asian guy who was a student of the blade. He had that knife ready. That was his stabbing knife. You know he like goes in the cata like fucking De Niro and like fucking De Niro and taxi driver. He's like, you're talking to me? You're talking to me? He like spins a little blade.

You know, see? He's talking to me. Oh, really? Oh, really. I would hate to get, I would rather get shot than stabbed, honestly. Like if someone's going to take a shot at me from across the room with a 38 versus somebody's going to get to like be in a phone booth with me and take a good stab. I'll take the 38.

I'll take the 38 every time. He might miss everything important and just it. Think about like the middle-aged battle wounds. Like it was so much goryer and worse. than modern day, like just guns. Like somebody catches you and slices half of your arm off. You just have to like keep walking around hoping you're not going to bleed out, but you are going to bleed out because like what your medical tent has a guy like whispering sweet nothings and like spells.

Like what else? Dirt, he's putting like, hold on, stay still. And he's like pouring river water all over here. You must clean the wound, my lord. You must clean the wound. Yeah. And it took them so many years to figure that out where they're like, guys, like, this river water is not helpful. It was still theory when Lincoln was shot.

Yeah. Which, in fairness to all of them, like, think about like you're born in the year, you know, 1600 or whatever. Okay. And some medical doctor who's wearing a very spooky mask full of potpoury is like, we've got a new theory that the things making you sick are completely invisible. Trust me, they're so small you can't see it. You cannot verify what I'm saying. You'd be like these fucking pieces of shit. They're just out for money again.

Try to screw. Yeah. Yeah. Until you get like microscopes, germ theory is like, like how would you even begin to conceptualize that? You know, with petri dishes,

you'd be growing cultures and stuff. But they wouldn't buy that it was little microorganisms doing it, I guess. I guess I see your point. They thought it was like the stink of like decay was carrying the, the illness that, literally like a cloud of disease. They were closer than me.

Like who was it ancient times? Kyle, you would probably know this, where they used to think that like a pig carcass left in a field like severed would create bees. I heard that with maggots. Something like that. Where like they thought that was the impetus of it. Like you do this to create them,

not knowing like a bunch of tiny little machinations by flies are actually creating the eventual maggots. I never considered that people wouldn't understand that process at first. Yeah. Well, I'm going to stay out there all night. It does seem like if you put a steak in a field

and wait overnight, maggots come from the steak. Yeah. Like if you're not watching the whole time and you got no light, you just think, I need to make some maggots. There's a meat out there. But some genius had the idea to put one steak uncovered

and another steak covered and see where the magnets were. They put it under glass. Yeah. And then that would have been stressful too because he's going to like the chief doctor and he's and they're like, all right,

to test this, we're going to put you under a cover. Wait, wait, he's a witch. It turns out he also creates maggots. Dude, being declared a witch would be the scariest fucking thing.

Like something that you can't even defend your way out of. Like there's no answer they'll accept. Like either you're like, like, oh no, I'm sorry for being a witch. I renounce my witchhood. And they're like, oh, your soul is saved. I can go free. Your soul is saved, sir.

Stoke the fire. They're going to burn you alive either way. It's just how long are they going to torture you before? It's the only thing in question. I like to think they weren't even sold on witches. That was just the way they got rid of obnoxious people. Where like some horrible dickhead in your town, it's like, I think this guy's a wizard.

And they're all like, you know what? Cosign. Get rid of this guy. He keeps open in my sheep gate for no reason, walking away, flipping me off. Fuck this guy. They made my sister cry. Definitely. 100%.

Wizard or witch made. Do you believe in magic? Do you believe that like there could, that there are any like devil worshiping or witchcraft people who could make things happen that otherwise supernaturally could not happen through their perhaps packs with a demon or. the dark lord himself and some enactment of ancient lost rituals i don't know i think we'd see more of it hmm but then again how would you know if you'd seen magic or not so i i don't really know i mean we do see a lot of evil people coming to great power that's fair i don't even think you need

magic for that no though you just need like ruthlessness and a lack of morality magic would help magic would absolutely help. Magic couldn't hurt in any circumstance if it's on your side. I don't think I believe in magic. No, but it's, you know, during the halftime show, you would suspend that. Right. And you would enjoy the show. I don't think it would... The converse of that being like miraculous acts of healing and things like that would most Christians believe that that ceased after the apostles died. And so if you have people that believe in miraculous powers that Jesus had and bestowed on the apostles, that similarly demonic activity that manifest in that way would have ceased around the same time. Not that there aren't spiritual warfare things happening, but in the Christian world, we don't think that it's that.

Even in the Catholic Church, I feel like they make saints still. They do make saints. Yeah, they canonize new saints. but I don't know what the process of that looks like. I don't think that that doesn't mean they think that person's magic. A miracle's magic, right? Miracle, yeah. But do you need a miracle to be canonized as a saint?

Is that how it works? They would be bestowing apostolic gifts that could be like prophecy or faith healing or the ability to pick up venomous snakes without being bitten, things like that. So you have Pentecostals and you would have some Catholics that would have that belief that they can. that rather than dying with the apostles, apostolic gifts are manually passed on by laying of hands or praying things of that nature. So some people believe that. Most people in the Protestant church would be what are called cessationist, meaning that the apostolic gifts ceased when the apostles all died. Okay.

Because I'm seeing here, the Catholic Church recognized a miracle in May. Like last year they recognized a miracle in India where the image of Christ, appeared on a on a host i don't know what that means wait was that but did the person who saw it become canonized or an image resembling the face of jesus appeared on a consecrated host in corolla india after a 12-year investigation it was officially declared a miracle by the church in may 2025 what you're thinking of taylor is when a person does a miraculous thing they're often recognized as a saint like um mother teresa was was sainted i believe I don't know what magic they said that, or miracle they said that she did any magic or miracle.

I think it was just miraculous purity. She was really like nice. I heard she let children suffer in missions and like Africa and stuff. Well, she ran a number of hospice care. Something about suffering bringing you closer to God, which sounds like something a centabyte would say. A little scary. Well, I don't know about a centipite. I wouldn't I wouldn't canonize them.

They seem pretty rough around the edges. No. Probably, yeah, yeah. Did you guys look at the Indian miracle? I didn't. Did not. I'll give you a link. Zach can share it.

I don't know how that anything got there. It looks too good to be true, but I guess that's what miracles are like. I was expecting one of the Virgin Mary things, which is basically like any Casper, the ghost silhouette sort of thing, and they call it the Virgin Mary. This is not that. This is clearly a man's, face.

Sure. I was genuinely picturing like one of those like pieces of toast from Mexico. That's a face. That's a face in there. Yeah, I was, I was expecting something, you know,

not so clearly human. Yeah. He looks like a, like he pitched for the twins in the 80s. Like, like, for,

It's good. I'm happy India got a nice little miracle because what seems to happen there is a whole lot of rough stuff. What's the opposite of a miracle? A travesty? Because there's a lot of people born with like 16 arms. And then even their own holy men, they're not Christian. They're, I guess, Hindu. But like they do that stuff where they don't clip their fingernails and everybody likes them for it. Or you lift your hand in the air and you let it rot for a hundred years and people like you for it. those things are you serious you know you know what i'm talking about i don't have a lift of your hand thing is that the thing i've seen yeah the thing yeah the thing is that flip your hand guy the pushback i'd give taylor is that the uneducated like them the the indians that so i used to work in IT

and i had tons and tons of well-to-do highly educated indian co-workers and that class of people protects people from the charlatans with their hand in the air they basically go around and say like I'm something pretty special I've had my hand up in the air for 16 years can you give you money and they're like tell they gotta get the fuck out of here you don't have extra money to give him he can get a job and put his hand down is what the people I worked with would say look at that look what happened to his arm he's held it up there he basically can't lower it anymore holy no I don't know if that shopped because that's like extra bad but it's bad it is bad in real life it looks there that that might be more realistic And you wouldn't believe it, but he's like barely wearing clothes. It looks like holding your arm up. Nobody's looking more overweight on this guy ever. Like, man, I just. It's kind of like the, uh, easy to put a shirt on the right.

Look, it looks like it's gray. Circulation maybe. Maybe that's people like touching it with ash or something. I don't know. Maybe some ritual thing. He's never shitting on it and stuff, dude. He's never lowering it at all. He can't.

How would he get shit on it? The birds would shit on it. The birds are, Taylor. Oh, I didn't hear you say the birds. I was like, I thought you said he probably just got shit on it. And I'm like, really? 50 years ago and he didn't bring it down for a second to wipe it off before he throws it up in the air. He looks like he spends his days outdoors.

I bet he gets shit on once a week if he's just never putting that hand down. It's going to accrue. Once a week on a slow week. It's India. Like, there's a lot. Yeah. Yeah, that's fair. That sucks.

I would have picked my left arm. Yeah, this is disgusting. I hate this. I don't know that this has anything to do with any particular religion or like what they actually do. I can't imagine that that's part of their faith because you only see like a handful of street rats doing that shit. I always love the snake handling that Christians do here though because that's about as like borderline and like wacky as I feel like Christianity gets. Like when you're dancing around with rattlesnakes, you're out there. And then you'll hear that like, yeah.

Is that a Christian thing? That's a very specifically Pentecostal thing. There you go. Oh, I thought it was just what Texans did. Oh, no. Pentecosts are. It's more Appalachian. No,

have you seen that at your church, Ed? No, no, we don't. We believe in the cessation of apostolic gifts. So no speaking in tongues, no picking up snakes, no faith healing, things of that nature. But, you know, there are certainly people that speak with conviction that you can. A little. He said no speaking in tongues, right?

Yeah. See, we spoke in tongues at my church. Not me, myself, but I observed it. You weren't imbued. I was never, I was never imbued, but I seemed to happen. It's a little upsetting as a child. Yeah, I went to a friend's church. You're not supposed to speak in tongues without an interpreter present.

So it's one of those things that you occasionally got to shut down. I can't interpret. I can only mock. Some would argue that's the same thing in modern context. Yeah, exactly. It sounded like he was repeating the same. thing over and over. Shatterrandike. It was a lot of that. Shatterrandai. Shadararondai. See, like you, if you, if you want a good tongues guy, he's got to have a little bit of like

fancy improv. Like it could also go la la la la la la la there'd be like a lot of like just noises seemingly. It was kooky. And that is a modern interpretation that tongues is a prayer language or a way that you speak to God uniquely. The language of God perhaps the angelic language. The more popular interpretation of the ability to speak in tongues is that you can go to a foreign people to tell them about God. And regardless of your ability to speak their language, they will understand you. And that's a pretty compelling logic from Paul's days of, you know, traveling the world to tell people about Jesus and them understanding when they naturally wouldn't. The idea that the word of Lord transcends language.

Right. All right. The Tower of Babel, sure. And there was just, there was an argument made that they were going to release the passion of the Christ without translations, just truly in Aramaic, because they just felt like people would understand it. Yeah. I mean, you've seen Apocalyptic.

Yeah. You get the gist of it. You know, you... Dude, an apocalyptic ruled, so... It's so good. Mel Gibson, if he hadn't just had the little outbursts of his, he's not only one of the best actors. He's a tremendous director.

The fact that he had... The son of a bitch, no story. structure. They're speaking that extinct Mayan dialect throughout the film. And like, obviously I don't, I didn't appreciate until I read it after the fact, but then

I watch it again and I'm like, wow, this is some dead language that would have never gotten this exposure. That's cool. Like, they paint this guy to be a racist, but he's done in South America with these swamp people, these jungle folk like paying homage to their culture, their language. And I guess he tweaked it a little bit

with the Spanish showing up at the end, but I like that too, that's a great, that's a great ending. Felt like there should have been a sequel there. Yeah, I don't watch the whole, dude, fuck Avatar. Give me three of the, three apocalyptos. That would have been. For sure. I want to see the Spanish come aboard because, you know,

following the history, the Spanish would have been chill with our hero who escaped that, like the small tribes that were being subjugated in such a horrible way by the Aztecs. And they would have been like, hey, you guys with your shiny stuff, we don't understand yet, there's a bunch of real no goodnicks over here,

sacrificing people on, on pyramids. How about we gather up the tribes? Everybody pissed at these folks. Let's take them down. That's what Cortez did. Yeah, it is. Yeah, those, they had the swords that had, they were like wooden clubs, kind of like cricket bats,

with obsidian, like teeth, stuck in them all the way. So much worse than guns. Well, I mean, they couldn't have worked too well against armor, which the guys were fucking wearing. Or cholera. Or cholera. Collar is our number one, like, savior. for taking the Americas

because they say that 80 or 90% of the North American Indians were taken out by smallpox and cholera and it's like, we had a hard time with the 10 or 15% that was left. You know, it wasn't, it wasn't a pushover taking the West.

You know, they sent the cavalry and sometimes the cavalry lost. You had little big horn type incidents and stuff. It was an ongoing war for years to take the West. And you're telling me that was only like 10 or 15% of their original numbers. That's why there were so many Buffalo

because historically there weren't vast million million head herds of buffalo in the West. There had been 10 times more Native Americans there prior to that keeping the numbers in check. I wish we had more buffalo still. I was thankful for their remnant very much.

We got all we need. I was driving back from Las Vegas and the Bugatti after a big car show and I knew like you don't get pulled over in Arizona but in New Mexico it's kind of, you know, whatever. And so I Finally, it was kind of not making boost, not driving quite right, and I let it breathe a little bit.

And then this cop comes diving across the median and pulls me over. And this comes up to the car and says, I just caught you at 136. And I was like, whoof, that is too much. And he just, I thought, well, he's probably not going to take me to jail because he seems not too upset. But this is going to be a nasty ticket that I've got to get my boys at the ticket clinic to fight. And so he just comes back, writes me a ticket for that. that and careless driving, which I guess is their reckless driving in New Mexico. Sounds great.

Normally, it feels better to be careless than reckless. Reckles is like, der-da-da-da-dur-d-d-dur-d. That's what happened. Caring enough about my driving. And so, but I have gotten pulled over on reservations or native land before, and they immediately say that. And they're like, hey, just so you know, this is native land.

And like, we don't worry about too much, but, can't speed here. We're going to need you to pay this ticket. Do it on time. We don't talk to anybody. But this guy did not do that. Now, he had like hand tattoos and things that were a little bit strange for a cop. But at the same time, it's New Mexico. There's shortages and things like, well, MS-13. I end up scanning the ticket and sent it to the our law firm sponsor that fights tickets anywhere. And they're like, oh, our guy in New Mexico will not go to that courthouse. And so I was like, well, maybe just call them and check because I was driving back. So I didn't immediately notice, but it was like Laredo tribal courts.

And that's probably native land. They probably don't ever talk to any other states or my insurance company. We may just pay this ticket and it not be that big of a deal. And they confirmed that. And they were like, oh, yeah. Now, we don't even know how to tell your insurance that you went to. They took it. And they like literally they were like $250.

That is that. And 50 bucks for the careless driving. I said, man, there better be your Trudy line on this thing. I look this up. I'm very pleased to not have to make a donation to the local fireman's fund or whatever. Natives are pretty chill. They are super chill. Yeah.

Absolutely. However, another one of our sponsors is Premier Financial Services. They're an exotic car lending bank. And he told me a story, the president of the bank, about repossessing a car that was on the same reservation and they had pulled a guy over who had some drugs in the car and I guess he fought him a little bit getting out and so they had arrested them whatever and they impounded the car and they were not going to give it back and they're not governed by the same rules as the surrounding state or country and so they kind of are allowed to do that which is a problem for you know

third parties that are involved with such assets and so he went he called the chief as the bank and said, hey, I totally get it. Like, our guy was not good, but like, we really own that car and we kind of need it back. And he's like, they effectively worked it out. They said, you can come pick this thing up. So he shows, he has to show up in person. And the chief makes him like agree to not give it back to the person who they had not liked in the arrest. And he's like, well, I kind of have a contract with this guy that like, if he does pay up, I have to.

And they're like, no. he's like okay no we're not you know just let me have the car so it takes some hours to produce this Lamborghini it's an early garado and he's finally like hey guys like where's the car like it's like because they had told it it was stored in another location he goes outside and they are pushing it like miles to get there and he's like does it run like well we think so there's no reason it shouldn't why aren't you driving it well we thought you might give it back to them so we filled it with rattlesnakes What? To the brim.

The car pulls up and we didn't count them but we took all the ones out and so he was there like they handed the keys like it's all yours you can drive it home and it's just

I don't know so he just drove into Vegas to got as fast as he could and left it. How long did he search the car before he got in and fucking close the door? just one could, but how well, I mean, I have a five-foot-long bow constrictor, and if it got stuck in my car, it would hide in a place you could never find. Like, it is not inside of the seat. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Dude, you pull down the sun visor. It's on your lap. Oh, yeah. You're going to need that apostolic gift because that's not. That is a hilarious prank. Oh, it's amazing. Yes. First of all, the idea that you have such a glut of snakes to fill a car with them. Like, there are so many, it's like, let's not waste our rattlesnakes. Get them in there. They didn't know how many they owned prior to putting them in the car. Hence the fact that they couldn't do a little bit of math over the snake pen.

They literally had so many snakes, they lost count. That's a fun play. You know, I would love a trailer park boys style show about a reservation. The better answer to that is that. that in which I've never considered until this very moment, is that all of that was fake. And they just told this banker who was making them give a car back that to ruin his drive home, which worked very well. And that makes me now want to deploy the same strategy in some fashion.

Like, hey, I googled it. The law they broke is called reckless endangerment. But I like to think it's called careless endangerment in New Mexico. See, he will be so worried about the snakes. He won't even realize we stole everything in the glove box. He'll never check there because it could be a snake. You have much further. Exactly.

If there's going to be a snake anywhere, it's in a glove box. I'm really afraid of snakes. Like, not like, I wouldn't be afraid of your bobo constrictor. I'd happily, like, handle it. But I'm afraid of real snakes, especially rattlesnakes. All the rattles, I've only seen them a few times in Texas. but they're so much bigger like fatter and girtier

and like they have like a mean face like rattles like some snakes kind of are looking around kind of they look kind of placid they're just like oh I'm a snake's less good a rattlesnake is just like it looks like the front of a I mean it makes sense it most like the front of a Dodge viper is just like

angry like that can we see a rattlesnake face I can't even picture it all the non-venomous snakes have like those heads that almost continue continuously. And then all the venomous snakes have like what you're saying, Kyle, they have like a, their body goes and then there's like a, they have like a jaw.

Like a triangle. Your head's like intimidating and their eyes were sort of inside of these big like. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that guy's not friendly. Nothing looks at you. You can tell he means like he.

That thing was looking at me with hate. I could tell it was hate. It wasn't like, like, what are you? It was like, I hate. you. I will kill you if you touch me. Those things are awful. We should kill all of those. I bet there's something useful they do.

I don't know what it is, but there's probably something. Nothing that a rat trap. There's in places where non-venomous snakes don't manage to survive because the rodents are too fast. Yes. Really? Yeah. So they kill not by constriction, but by venom. And that's what it requires for them to live.

And otherwise, there would be too many rodents. Well, I don't like rodents. I guess in a snake rodent off. I would pick the rodent out. What if we just got like foxes or something instead? Cats. Right. There's a ton of foxes out there.

The distribution of animals works. Nice as it might. But yeah, we put out like, you know, since me and my kids don't mind snakes or anything, we always put out messages in the neighborhood Facebook group each spring. Like, hey, it's snake season. Nearly nothing here is venomous. So like, pretty please don't kill it all. We need it to.

to keep the moles down and all that. So if you need something, we'll get it. What the moles do? My five-year-old daughter will pull a king snake out of a hole leg is nothing. It's blast. That's awesome.

I feel sorry for the moles. Well, but they're their own problem. You know, and they're just so ugly. I think they're cute with that little face and the little beady eyes. They got those like. Have you seen?

We had a road in the yard today. The dogs were playing with something dead. So Jackie's like, Woody, I want you to take this body and throw it away. And I couldn't identify what kind of rodent it was because it didn't have a head anymore. I asked the puppies where the head went. Both of them blamed each other. I don't know. How many fingers is that an AI mold?

The hands aren't quite right. I don't know. Yeah. A little elephant trunk thing. Maybe go to the third image result. Is that a vol maybe? That's not a eyes.

I don't know the difference between voles and moles. I always assume voles were small. They do dig well. I mean, it's a thing. Go back, the second row down left one is a proper mole. Mole talk. That's a mole.

With the white background is a mole. That's what you find. Because they fall in pools. It's a Pokemon, and it's like early stage. That's right. It isn't powered up yet to have this. giant paws that are red. It would be one of those

like rock Pokemon that burrows through stuff. What a terrible life. He likes it down there, getting worms and grubs and shit. The cool earth around him. Sniffling is... Which animal do you think leads the best life, Taylor? Dogs, my dogs.

I was going to say my dogs. If we take dogs out of the mix because obviously they're the king of the best animal... And horses too, like any domestic... And horses and cats and all of that. It would have to be some sort of, what's that, is it some gigantic condor in Mongolia that just eats bones?

It's like a bone eating thing. And so like it eats carcasses. And you can see, I saw a guy feed it like a femur bone of a fucking lamb. It was insane. Swallowed the whole thing. Just glugged it down. And then he ate more bones because I was thinking like, that's probably his bone filling for the day.

But he packed more bones in on top. it. But that's like a gigantic bird and it lives mostly solitary and I don't think anything fucks with it. Probably most birds have preyed don't get messed with and just fly around, riding thermals looking for things to eat.

An eagle's got to be up there. You're right. Some apex predator bird is a strong argument. I mean, you can say the same thing about a big whale. What's going to hurt it? I was thinking killer whale too, but then you go one further. Maybe sperm whale. Maybe we go all the way to sperm whale. Nothing fucks with

the sperm whale ever. Nothing can't. Who messes with manatees aside from ski boats? Speed boats. Yeah. Yeah, you don't want that. I want to be a, I think killer whale would be pretty sick. Like I saw them the other day. They literally plate and bully other animals. I saw them like torpedo a sunfish the other day. The sunfish. That must have been loaded. That was nuts. This thing. Yeah. It's a rates this thing. Sunfish, the sailboat. No, the fish. The fish. The fish. The largest bony fish in the ocean. It hit it so hard. The fish exploded into like pulp in like every direction. It was awesome. That's a terrible animal to be. The only thing I know about sunfish is how much of their body they can swim without.

Because it's all just pictures of it. And then it's just some wide-eyed like, oh. So yeah. This is fine kind of mean fishes. Yeah. I'm chained, sperm whale. I would bow.

Spirm whale. They don't get fucked with and they live for a super long time. They live in the cold. Green whale or whatever that lives for a thousand years. Like, those,

those sharks that live for 400 years, they like lose their eyeballs. Greenland shark. You don't want that life. That seems gruesome. I think I like the killer whale life because you got like a pot of homies that you're riding around with.

To be happy, you got to have some social aspect, right? You can't just be all by yourself, soaring around like a big condor. I think it's like big matriarchal groups, and then the males maybe are like solo-dolo with the killer whales. I'm still stuck on the manatee thing. I mean, based on their body fat, they're surviving pretty easily, right?

Like whatever food they eat is plentiful and laying around. Right. But then Christopher Columbus shows up and tries to have sex with you. Oh, that's true because they've got nice hips. It's a salty dog. I don't know. That's where the myth of the mermaid comes from. Mermaids by Christopher Columbus, yes.

Oh, Christopher Columbus. Yeah. When he said mermaid, that's like when Epstein says jerky. He doesn't mean mermaids. He means manatee pussy. Looks like killer whales have killed manatees before in the wild. Yeah. They killed everything, I bet, except for people.

outside of SeaWorld anyway. And except for sperm whales. I'm sure sperm whales have killed people before. I was meaning from the killer whale thing. Is Movie down about a sperm whale? Yes. The only sound from another wild animal that makes orcas leave an area is the clicking from sperm whales.

Really? Because sperm whales are toothed whales. And even though killer whales are huge sperm whales are significantly larger. and so they can... 65 feet long or so that's like literally the only thing in the ocean that can see an orca and be like if you let me catch you I'm going to kill you.

I've seen sperm whales allowing seals to get on their back to avoid the killer whales and the killer whales are like fuck he made it home he's on home base so that we can do and those sperm whales fucking sitting there floating on top of the water

like come on motherfucker come on let's do this Try something. You see these teeth? These are the size of a fucking sixth grader's arm. They got a whole war going on down there. They do. I don't know what team I want to win.

I just want them both to survive. I like the Orcas, man. The reason I like the Orcas is because they've had plenty of opportunities to kill us, and they never do, which suggests either they don't want to or they know better. And in both cases, I appreciate the hell out of that. And they're cool looking, just aesthetically. They look really neat. I like that.

Yeah. That's a good color palette. I like that. Yeah. Hey, I said we're all in the business. I have to bring up something that I saw today that was nuts. There is an article that this guy named Matt Schumer wrote, and he posted it to Twitter, but it is about AI eliminating jobs, and it has more success than I've ever seen a post have.

It has 76 million views in less than 48 hours. Wow. And the idea is that AI is getting to the point as of like a week ago. that it is building its own AI such that he now, as a top-level developer, feels less needed. And I've heard from the developers that I know that about, like, a year ago, they did 20% AI to check their work and 80% their own code, and now they're inverted. So it's 20% them, 80% AI. But this guy is saying, we're now to the point where he's just dictating. instructions to a robot to write code.

And his case is that developers see this happen first because they build this stuff to build itself. And that essentially all jobs are a year away from being not required. And I'm fascinated by it more so from a post success because he's getting a million views an hour on this thing. But I think that it's novel that this. also partially AI written article is it's not necessarily a doomsday like the world is ending, but it's just that the way that we think about work is about to change. And I don't know that us sitting around late night talking on the internet is necessarily about the change from it.

But at the same time, like, it is impacting so many areas of our lives. And to see something like this gain that kind of traction and that kind of space means other people, have the same level of concern. I'm sure you guys have had wild AI conversations here, but I'm curious what your thoughts are, especially as it pertains to our lives of content creation. Universal basic income is around the corner, if that's true. Goodness.

I mean, just it doesn't have to be. If unemployment goes to 50, 60% or something like that, when do the food riots begin? Oh, rolling gangs. When do the rolling gangs? When did the roving gangs start moving through the countryside? You know what I mean? You got to start paying people to exist.

Everybody has to go on essentially a welfare program. But a very beefed up one because you're going to have to accept like 50% unemployment at least. You have lotteries for entries into higher education because why educate 150 lawyers when you only need one next year? Right. It would be the end of Western civilization as we know it. Well, it can either be really cool or really horrible, and it seems angling towards horrible. I would argue this development thing is not a good indicator, right? Like, so here's the deal.

What people think developers actually do is translate your requirements into code. That's fucking the easy part of the job. That's not really it. the real job is filling in all the requirements you didn't give me. If you say Woody, just make sure this email address is legit. It's like, do you know how much there's missing from that? Do you have any idea of all the different formats that could be a valid email address or what's not a valid email address?

You think it's name at domain.com. What punctuation can exist in an email and where along that string is punctuation allowed to be? The code around just validating an email address is. is fucking ridiculous. And that goes on everywhere. It's the unspoken part of the instructions that you left out.

You know, just say, what do you make a web page that takes, you know, somebody's name and address? Do you know how much is missing from that? Like how much freaking like data purification we have to do to make sure people don't inject SQL into this thing? Like, like there is so much left unspoken. That's what a developer's actually doing.

It's not the part where you translate words into code. And that's the part, that AI is good at right now. If I said translate this into Spanish, that's its talent. It can do that. What it's not doing is like all the, you look at it and you're like,

all right, it doesn't do this, add to it. It doesn't do this, add to it. That's what a developer's really doing. As far as AI making, like, entertaining stuff,

I haven't seen it. Every time I see an figure out a video as AI, which happens. Right. I suck. So it might take me 90 seconds. I click off. I'm like something about the cadence of this isn't right.

It just doesn't seem good. I don't want to see it. I think AI is just going to be a really good tool that enhances what people do, makes them more efficient at what they do. I don't see it. Elon Musk says that in 10 years we'll be in a post-money economy because the robots he's making will do everything for us. Do you think that's even remotely true?

And if it were possible, the people with money wouldn't allow it. I don't think his robots will put the dishes away 10 years from now. If they don't, then we've really fallen off. They've got to start hitting some of these benchmarks. I don't do it right either. I don't know where the freaking... What are you put the garlic press? The garlic press is a great example.

The thing is I don't do the cooking. So I didn't take it from that spot. I just put it back in a spot. I think she might look. Yeah, it's the same thing with like movies where people are like, oh, in a couple years, you know, you'll be able to prompt your own movie. And then someone will show something. And I saw an actual genuinely very, very good AI video using Walter White. Like as, and it looked really good.

It was very realistic. There were plenty of things if you're going to get nitpicky in there that didn't make sense AI-wise. But there was, it looked better than I've seen. before, but everyone making those videos, they're not introducing new dialogue and like fun things for the characters to say. They're just telling characters from beloved TV shows to have like Marvel movie-esque fights. And it's like, okay, well, that's not really building a movie, is it? That's really you just saying, have Walter White and Hank have an epic Marvel movie battle style thing. And it's like, okay, well, when does the intuitiveness or when does the

ingenuity rather get here. Like when, when do you start creating the movie you say is possible now? Because all you're doing is like creating Captain America style fights between your favorite existing characters. Yeah, you need a script. You get the AI to write a script and then you need the AI to speak the script. Who knows how good the AI would be it? This music video is like Star Trek shit. It's called Tin Man. And I started watching it thinking I was going to like not like it. And I ended up watching the whole damn thing because it was so good. I think it looks pretty damn good. And they've got like every character that's ever been in any Star Trek, sort of in this like angsty rock music video.

He looks dead. Well, that's data. So his face is, he's an android. That's right. He's throwing you a little bit in the game. Yeah, yeah, look at anybody else because he's supposed to be an Android. Oh, okay, okay. Yeah.

Well, I think it's interesting. So in your day-to-day lives, do you use AI for anything? a lot. Yeah. Yeah. When I'm cooking, I'm like constantly talking to it. Like anytime I need to convert metric or something or just like, hey, when do I add the kaffir lime leaves to my Thai curry in the beginning or the end?

And it's like immediately it goes through like Reddit mostly, but also YouTube and a dozen other things aggregates and answer together. And it's like kaffir lime leaves are best added toward the end of the cooking process. tear them that in half if you don't have as much time. Like instantly you know that? Like perfect. So I'm cooking with that all the time. I want the glasses that have the heads up display just for recipes and cooking.

Like the idea of having that recipe right in front of my eyes and like not having to look over at something to know it's three eggs or it's two eggs. Just being able to like look up on a heads up display as I cook is, I don't know. That's attracted to me. I use it to get answers all the time. Like I'm just looking at my little chat history here. I used it to look up reckless endangerment and Pokemon cards during this show. I used it to get some answers about virtual audio cables. That was me.

One of the other difference between Trump and Biden's marijuana initiatives. They both made steps towards making it legal or class one or no, class three. Class three. Yeah, they lived low. Yeah. They didn't do it yet. But yeah, they both made some efforts to push it in that direction. I was like, what is the difference between what they were doing?

I just, I don't know, which mice can be charged via mouse pad. I get answers on it all the time. And I mostly trust it too much, I think. Like I've heard it called third party thinking. I love that term. Like when you just outsource all your brain to AI, I probably do that a little too much. If it's a current event, I start going like source after source to fact check it. But if I'm just asking a question about physics or something,

thing, I assume it's true, that it's right. Yeah, if it's like a math thing, pretty easy to assume it's right. I think I use it less than you two, but like, and I'm also like, I think a little more boomer mode where I don't fully trust it, but I will, like, if it has to do with, if it has with cooking or video games, video games, it doesn't have any good answers from what I can tell, like nothing that great. But if you ask it about like something relevant, like in the news, and this is equally a function of Google sucking dick compared to how it used to give you results. Like Google's results just suck now.

It's half ads. You have to go to like page three to get good shit. So I will just have AI, you know, answer the question and I'll tell it to include a certain number of sources and to list them. And then I'll just go scroll past its answer and then open up all the web pages that it's cited. Hmm.

To like get directly to it. Because if you search that same thing on Google, Google, it's not going to give you that amalgamation of answers. It's going to give you a whole bunch of nonsense, like, because it's all ad-driven now. So all those uses are fast smart Google. I tend to use fast-smart Google. I like that. Like fast and smart, it does both of those. The only problem is it removes me from the loop quite a bit, right? With Google, intuitively, I would just hit five different websites and sort of check to make sure they agreed with each other and come at where I think the answer is.

With AI, I'm cautious, but probably flawed in making sure that I don't just accept the first thing it tells me. Yeah. Or I'm trying to like trick it into saying slurs. You know. Have you gotten into a position where you feel like, oh, I was misinformed by AI and therefore I took a bad take on this idea? I've seen it be wrong though you know what I asked AI if I was a superhero and every bit as athletic as say Spider-Man which NBA team would be most appreciative of me bringing home the championship it was the Sacramento Kings and then I was like you know how would this go how would the coach use me etc and it mentioned me getting fed by a player I'm going to fast up his name, but it's like DeAndrian Fox or something who was traded the year before. And I'm like, oh, this guy doesn't know that guy got traded to the Spurs.

I know that. Like, AI has fouled this up. This is important. No, what do you? Don't let him laugh at you. These things are important because I just, as like, before you even said that, my little test, I'm like, I haven't asked AI like, uh, or Grock like a question, like a subjective. thing in a while. I'm like, in your opinion, who are the top five hockey players of all time?

You need to ask you about something you know. Did Bobby Orme? Wayne Gretzky won, Bobby Orr two, Mario Lemieux three, Gordyhow four, Sydney Crosby five. It's a pretty good five. Fantastic list. Yeah, that's a pretty good side. He's aggregating from a lot of good, sort of from these 32 good web pages that I can

like expand and then go click if I want. Just like two years ago, it did so poorly. these things. It's crazy. Did you see there's a new Spider-Man TV show coming? Yeah, the progress. This is the new Spider-Man TV show. It is like a noir Spider-Man and Nick Cage is Spider-Man. What is that word mean?

I've seen it all the time. I never looked it up. It's like a gumshoe detective, black and white 40s kind of pulp comic detective. Really? You know what? You know what? I think that kind of. So if people don't know.

the superhero universe at all, they naturally get more and more powerful. You start off with your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, and here's a guy who's capable, but maybe struggles a little bit with dealing with like four muggers at one time, right? And then a few years pass, and you have this intergalactic space traveling Spider-Man taking on Thanos and things like that, that every superhero just gets power scaled up and up and up until sometimes you need to do a multiverse trick or whatever and make like bring them back down to earth

because once you've beaten some galaxy eating, fueling super you know a hundred four light year tall superhero where are you going from here? Like what's next? Oh it's the rhino! You can't go back to like solving

murderers. Watch out for his horn. So the the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man from the 40s? This is not that. This is a spin on Spider-Man. I don't know if it's based on a graphic novel that I've never heard of or whatever, but I linked it down there.

You can briefly, like, click through, like, what this looks like. It looks like Nick Cage is an insane person who has Spider-Man powers. He has the powers. Yeah, it seemingly, yes, he has the powers. He's web-slinging and, like, beating this shit out of criminals. And then seemingly is very mentally unstable. and it's curious Spider-Man

I'm nervous I'm not into a 60-year-old spider-man and then he looks he looks every he does not look 60 I will say this first of all she doesn't you can watch it in black and white

or something they're calling true color I don't know what exactly that is I will watch this in black and white because he doesn't look as old and black and white and it's going to make the effects look better too then I think I think that's going to fit the vibe of this show too I'm

That seems like that first line he said, they, they like told him like, do it more Nick Cagey. Because he was like, you already know how it ends. Yeah. Well, I was in Vegas. So when does it come out? Do we know? What does this say? It should be even five minutes if it's eight, I.

May 27th on Prime. That's pretty soon. I've been watching that Game of Thrones. spin-off that you told us. Yes, wonderful. How did you get in? A Night of the Seven Kingdoms. I think I'm caught up. There's only four, right? Maybe one tonight? There's only four. Yes. Yeah. I, okay. I really like it. If I had a complaint, it's that I want more of it. The shows are like 30 minutes long. And I keep hoping, like, this is the episode where a thing is going to happen. Yes. And then at the end of the episode, you're like, well, they can't keep hedging me for another week

I can't enter the tournament today no are you a well-known knight or lord no well then you don't get to go first well fuck and you thought that we're gonna fight today we're waiting on him they're at a tournament and this is an all or nothing moment for our hedge knight which is a very poor night without a lord

he's like a European Roman and and he has to put up his armor and his gear as like bounty to compete in this thing. Everyone does. But if you're rich, you just pay the guy off at the end. He doesn't take your sword. You give him whatever the sword's worth.

Or maybe there's an established value for swords and armor. You pay him. But this guy doesn't have any fucking money. This guy's broke. He's having to sell one of his horses just to get some armor. So if he loses, it's all or nothing.

And you're waiting every episode for the games to begin. Well, I don't want to spoil the show, but the next episode, the games are essentially beginning. We're going to get a thing. It's coming, and I'm so psyched for it. It seems that I thought the fourth one would likely have a thing that happened.

And they're basically in the location where it's going to happen at this point. And I don't want to spoil too much. Yeah, we're ready to rock and roll here. We're like, piss her up. I don't know how they can edge me for another week at this point. No, it happens at the beginning of next episode, dude. The next episode has the fight because, like, it's the episode four ends. And basically the good guys and bad guys have their dukes up.

And it's like next time on a night of a seven kingdoms, you're like, fuck. Why are these only 30 minutes long? Yes. There's a little boy. So you've got this six foot five, 240 pound hedge night who towers over every character in the show. It, um, named, um, is it Duncan the tall? Yes. Yeah.

And they call him dunk. Duncan the tall. And, uh, his squire, I won't spoil anything, but he's this little baldheaded boy named Egg. And Egg, it might be the best character in the whole show. Like, he's witty and funny and quirky. There's a joke in every scene. I'll say that too. It's so much more lighthearted and, like, brighter and happier than any of the Game of Thrones stuff I've ever seen. Of course, all the other Game of Thrones stuff we've seen is in the midst of a civil war. So not everybody's going to be cheerful. This is during peacetime. We're at like a tournament. Everybody's feasting and

drinking. There's always that like background thread of like if you were to step on a lord's foot, you might get your foot cut off or something like that because that's just the consequences of the universe you're in. But our characters are mostly like small scale troubles. You know, it's about it's about becoming a better night. It's about winning a tournament. It's not about like saving the kingdom. And I really like how lighthearted and jokey it is. There's a joke in every scene at least. The, um, yeah, Kyle is on the money with all this. Sir Duncan the tall, they don't call him Sir Duncan the smart.

That's not his name at all. But what's kind of fun is his little squire is a pretty bright kid. And I think that as this goes on, he's going to lean on this child for his intelligence more often. And I like that dynamic. It's a good show. I recommend it alongside Kyle. It's good.

Yeah. I'm you know the I saw the ratings on it the last episode had the highest rating had a higher than almost any Game of Thrones episode ever only like three or four of the best of the best Game of Thrones episode had a higher rating

and none of the like the Dragon show the other Spinoffat the Dragon maybe that stunk I did not like the None of their episodes had like I think it was a 9.4 or something like that it was a really high score that episode four got

episode four were so fucking good i loved it it's also eight years later we'd have to see like the the comparison between like hb o subscribers then and now and the thing episode four was really good episode three was really good i don't know what its ratings were but they get better everyone it's like it i don't remember exactly but it's like 9.1 9.2 9.3 9.4 every episode you know i i don't want to spoil anything but kyle was like episode three hooked me after episode three I am down for this show. It gets two thumbs up, whatever. And I'm like, all right, I got some insider knowledge.

Episode three is when the thing is going to go. It doesn't go. It doesn't go. But it might hook you too. It was good. Yeah. I love that shit. I'm so glad that they're making a good show based in that universe.

I'm going to read those books, but right now I'm starting the dungeon crawler Carl series. Chis always talks that up. girlfriend already owns all the books, it turns out, in her little library. So I'm going to pick that on. Are you going to read it with us, Taylor, and join the book club? I bought dungeon crawler Carl. I'm not reading it yet. I like opened up and just kind of took a peek at the writing style and things. I don't know how much isn't going to vibe with the style of book I tend to like, but I'll give it a go. Like if you guys are both reading it all. How would you describe the style? It sounds like a Nancy Drew book. or something. Dungeoning Parle. Something about it that like that doesn't appeal to me is I know

it's and this is like to me like it's not that it's written like I don't I don't know but it's supposed to be a little like kitschy a little funny like silly ironic characters that you're following through these dungeons and to me that lowers the stakes a lot

and so it makes me less interested maybe at the danger level like one of the characters is like he's like working alongside a talking cat that is not something that appeals to me but and also the way like I flipped through some pages to see and it's a Garfield scenario hates Mondays

like it'll have like bold sections of the page that describe like items that this person is picking up throughout their journey like an RPG like an RPG but the items are a little maybe too silly where it'll be like oh the gloves of silly sneakiness and it's like okay like that's a little a little glib again like i want there to be stakes i don't want it to be hopping from fourth wall breaking joke to fourth wall breaking joke with characters that i can't invest in because they never feel in danger and i haven't read it yet and so i'm not casting those aspersions at it it's just you want darkness and realism and stakes. I could recommend some Warhammer 40K novels because people get fucking...

I read the one you sent me and it was good. I liked it. It was... I worry some of those might be not the best written, but I would use you as a filter there. And you can tell me which ones are good and which ones are. I like him a lot. And awful things happen to people all the time. The stakes are high? Like every time your character gets in a fight, you're like, are they going to kill him this time? Oh, they did. Yep. Yep. He's dead. I guess this wasn't the main character at all, turns out. Everyone's dead. The stakes have to be high. The stakes have to be high. The stakes have to be high. or I'm not going to be invested in it fully. Like if it's like this kind of glib, silly, you know, joke to joke thing,

that's just a style of book I'm not as interested in. Not that it's bad. Just not. I guess get into these books. Did someone say they were good? Chis and Carol told me to buy them. Yeah, she's been all about it for a while. And then I asked my girlfriend and she's like, yeah, I'm on book five right now.

Like that's what I'm actually reading right now. She said they're really good. I think what he said is pretty accurate about it being, very lighthearted. I've heard it described as an RPG in novel form and that the audiobook is really good. Something about the way it's performed is

head and shoulders above most. But I haven't pressed play yet. I'm not going to do audiobook. I'm going to read it. Is it a fellow audiobook guy? Do you like a cast reading or one guy? I like one guy doing voices. Yep.

I don't like audiobooks the way you guys. I'll get distracted by a cast. you want guy. I like when it's one guy and he does the voices. And if he's consistent enough, and I've only seen one or two guys that weren't, then like, I remember Roy Detrease, right? I know his Tyrion voice. I know his Aria voice. And even though it's an old English man doing the voice of a 12-year-old girl, I accept that this is what Aria sounds like. And it's, I'm following the story along. It's plenty good for me. But if a little girl chimed in, I think it might even throw me off a little like I was listening to a stage performance or something.

I liked it when they have a cast. I forget which one it was, was a sci-fi book read by a cast. And I thought it was really good. I will say, though, that some of these voice actors are so talented. I read, you know, audiobook, three-body problem. And every character's name is like they're Chinese. So they're like Zhu and Ji and Zhang. And I'm like, who's who again?

None of these names that are working for my American head. Can I trouble you for an atom? or perhaps a Steve. I would recognize the detective by his voice and cadence, and I'd recognize the scientist by his voice and cadence, and made it all the way through the three-body problem, never having trouble knowing who we're talking about, even though I can't name them.

So his voices were that good. That makes sense. Yeah, I'll probably do audiobook just because I've heard such good things about the audiobook, but I do have all the hard copies. Oh, so you could pick and choose. we're going to hear from a couple of sponsors and then there's a book I've read last night that I want to talk about. Guys, I got to let you go for today, but I appreciate.

Man, I've... Pretty absurd. It's not even like conservative, liberal, Republican Democrat. It's not even that anymore. It's just like there is a lawless cover-up of satanic, pedophile cannibals happening in front of our eyes. And that Pambon delay, like shouting and slamming her fist, while she read notes, like attack notes on each senator who dared ask her whether the president was a pedophile.

Yeah. Don't you ever accuse me of lying? I believe you just lied. He looked like it just lied. A complete corrupt retard. I think you guys are overlooking the Dow Industrial average. It briefly was over 50 grand. Oh my fucking God.

What does it have to do with anything? You propagandist Bimbo. Yeah, she sucks. She's always sucked. She's trying to. You know, she's the one who, like, she was there in Florida when Epstein got his original deal. Yeah.

And she's also the one that, like, she took 25 grand from Trump and decided not to investigate Trump University. She is like, and you could, it was really obvious from the clips I saw. I'm not going to sit there and watch. that trash, the whole thing. But like, she is performing for an audience of one. So I didn't watch enough of the performance to do it justice. And here's what I mean.

Like I, so at first I watched it live. But then the feed cut out. Like it was like, oh, I was watching it live on YouTube. And it stopped broadcasting. It just turned black. So after that, I just watched highlights. Now, here's something I know. The Democrats, having seen her do this in the Senate,

she brought what they called a burn book, which I think is from mean girls. And she, like, flipped through her insults. This is true. And had, like, prepared insults for the people who are questioning her. Well, the Democrats were like, as soon as she started, were like, I reclaim my time. Because apparently they can decide who's able to talk and not with, like, a lot of power. This is whoever's time it is. Yeah.

So what I didn't see, though, was they alternated Democrats and Republicans. And every time the Republican would go, she's like, can I use some of your time to reply to that other guy? None of those replies are making it into my news universe. Only her bumbles. I didn't see most of her mean girl burns that occurred during the friendly questioning time. Only one Republican even asked her about the Epstein files. It was Massey. Yeah, I didn't see her do anything like that looked respectable or reputable up there. It was just, you know, throwing red herrings out, hoping to distract. Oh, oh, have you thought about the NASDAQ? And it's like, yeah, that's two thumbs up. But we're actually talking about the foreign interloper representing a foreign intelligence agency blackmailing our politicians with pedophilia and threats.

We're actually talking about that right now. Can you can you come to the table, perhaps? If you're Trump, how dare you? Because like, on one hand, she's kind of a laughing stock. Everyone's ripping on her. Like they're saying her performance was terrible,

et cetera, et cetera. None of them are saying Trump, Trump, Trump, right? She is the focus of intention. People are talking about impeaching her. None of them are saying impeached Trump. They're like, go after Pam Bondi. Oh, this cover up. Dude, she's obviously.

acting on Trump's orders. Yes. Redacting the bad guy's names and publishing the victim's names as an intimidation tactic is clearly what we're going for. It's not an accident. It was done tens of thousands of times. Not an accident. And she's getting all the negative press.

If I'm Trump, I'm like, oh, my God, they want to impeach her? This is kind of a win for me. I'm the one that fucked the children. Oh, I don't even... as if I'm Trump. I don't think this reflected well from Trump at all. I don't know. It seems like every day it's more clear to even like I don't know what people think about

this from the right like this whole thing. I don't know if they're like like the hard Maga people are just like, nah, pet of fear is not that bad. Like I don't know if that's, if there's some justification going on. But I can't imagine anyone with any common sense watching a hearing like that and not thinking that for sure there is a. vast cover-up going on to protect powerful men from proof that they're pedophiles and taking part

in this is Rayleigh-Ran honeypot pedophile operation. It's so obvious. It's so obvious. This isn't like one of those Mission Impossible James Bond convoluted like multiple step and oh, it was that guy the whole time. This isn't that. That is how much they're controlled by these blackmailers and these foreign intelligence agencies is they're willing to take it on the nose with all of this shit, which would make everyone

want the truth uncovered more. It makes me wonder how they think they're going to, like, like I've never seen anything like this in modern politics. You go back to Whitewater? What'd they do? Break into a fucking hotel. This is so much worse than Whitewater.

They stole paperwork, God damn it. That's some white collar bullshit. And that attorney general went to prison on that. This is... Did you see Thomas Massey going off on it? he was like, dude, this is a 20-year conspiracy. Like Pam Bondi tried to deflect and be like, why don't you talk about the Biden administration not releasing it?

And he was like, oh, I'll do you one better. Let's talk about George W. Bush. Let's talk about Barack Obama covering it up. Let's talk about the first Trump administration covering it up. Let's talk about Biden covering it up. Let's talk about the second Trump administration, trying and failing to cover it up. Because this is not a new thing.

And all of you people knew this was a thing. this was the thing. And a lot of them now are like, oh, we are aghast to learn this stuff. And it's like, no, no, no. They better all hope and pray that Trump lives to, to like, end his time in office. Because he's going to need to blanket pardon them the way Biden did his family and like inner circle. They're all going to need like grandfathered in blanket pardons to avoid prosecution. I'm frustrated by the coverage of this. Like, if you go to mainstream media, they're always like, Trump's not accused of anything. To be clear, Trump's. not accused of anything. Stop fucking lying. Trump is accused of raping and beating children in the

Epstein files. It's not ambiguous. It's not maybe. It's not an edge case. There's the fucking limousine driver who said he was going to pull over and beat his ass because he heard him gloating about the things he did to children. And the girl, right, that he heard the girl say that he did this to me. There's the testimony of the girl who got beat because she gave a toothy blowjob. to Donald Trump. There's the testimony of the girl whose boobs hurt afterwards because he was too rough on her nipples. Stop saying Donald Trump isn't

accused of anything. I watched Joe Rogan today say, oh, this looks terrible for the administration. You fucking dry up scrotum-looking podcaster. It doesn't just look. It is terrible. Whenever it was like Joe Biden, Joe

Biden's doing this. When it's Trump, it's, oh, this looks terrible for the administration. Watch your fucking language you scrot them like it just say it like it is this guy is accused of raping children in hurting them like the coverage on this has such soft language that if you're in the wrong news ecosystem you're not getting any truth on this they're not going to hit with accusations until they have like enough ground they feel they can stand on right and what that's going to take is we actually need the rest of these files

fucking released. We need actual video, photo, we need hard evidence. Because if we don't get the rest of this and we don't get hard evidence, it's going to be just like the pedestal files and these pieces of shit are going to walk. The videos are redacted by the Trump administration.

We need all of them. By Donald Trump. Yeah. I'm frustrated by, I think everybody is not telling the obvious truth. Like Trump is accused in the Epstein files. Let's stop pretending otherwise because Trump has ended free speech with his lawsuits. Now they're all on eggshells trying not to say anything could possibly bad. Trump never does wrong. He just gets bad advice. Stop it. Trump is fucking doing exactly

what he wants to do. This is by design. It's not that everyone around him is incompetent. Everyone around him is following his instructions. Well, he's clearly surrounded by Sykofans. and that's what I was saying earlier is that Pam Bondi was playing to an audience of one like she was trying to maintain his approval with it I do not want to see this become nothing like the Podesta Pizza Gate shit did because if you followed all of that

back in 10 years ago now it's so similar to what we're seeing now the pedophile codes all of this shit and nothing ever came of that because they never released smoking guns like Kyle brought up last week we need smoking guns we need hard evidence we need like we need the the rope to get rid of these people so to speak like and if they keep obfuscating and if we don't get these then these people will walk

we need the victims to name names we need the we need thomas massey who like a few weeks ago set or maybe it was a few months ago it's like i've got 20 names off the top of my head to say and it's like, then say them. Then fucking say. Then stop all the grandstanding stuff and just fucking say them so we can like Is it six people? Is it five? Do you remember how many of they named just recently?

No, yeah, something like that. Yeah, yeah. One of them was this retired Victoria's Secret CEO. I think all the rest were like, I don't know, United Bear remember it's Abu Dhabi, something like that. Yeah, it was the, the, that huge French CEO. he was definitely in there. Is that the Victoria's Secret one?

I think so. I don't remember his name. Lauder? Is it Lauder maybe? I don't want to say the wrong name. I don't want to say the wrong name either. Don't take that as law for me. Joe Rogan was in there.

Yeah. For turning it down. Yeah, yeah. That's the best. That's an honorable mention. I mean, don't you kind of wish that you were in there just as like. It was like two versions. of honorable mention. But yeah, yeah, like for all my fussing about Joe Rogan in the way that he

carries water for pedophiles, he turned it down. Like he- I see Joe Rogan is doing, like when he's like trying to be, I guess, diplomatic in how he's saying it. I see him is doing it the same reason that like ABC, CBS, NBC, all of them are because they don't want, because like in the same way like Fox, Fox News went out right now and was like, we're speaking factual. and Bill Clinton is a pedophile. They can't say that. There's no evidence. Joe Rogan has this long history of bias coverage, right?

When he saw the video of Tim Walsh, the AI video, like dancing in a real feminine way down the escalator, it was hard to talk Joe Rogan out of that being not real. I think I might have double negative. Probably how he does dance, though, in real. He thought it was real. He thought it was real that he was dancing down the escalator. That was AI.

And Rogan's like, no, it's not. That's real. That's real. That's not AI. He didn't want to learn the truth. When Joe Biden made fun of Trump for saying that the key to winning the Revolutionary War was taking over the airports, they had cut it. And he had only heard Joe Biden say it. He's like, this guy's senile. He's totally lost it. He's disqualifying. He should never be president. And then when he learned that Joe Biden was actually quoting Donald Trump, who just said a stupid thing, he's like, oh, well, he's, you know, never mind. It's disqualifying what it was Joe Biden. And now that it's Trump who said it, it's, you know, he fucked up, no big deal. I'm fine with it. I think there are definitely degrees of accusation, like doing some retarded nonsense and falling for fake news about a dance down an escalator. Like, Joe doesn't want to call someone a pedophile on his show and have lawyers come after him.

I'm not saying he's right. And he's wrong. I'm saying that's why APC's sequence of going hard. at Democrats and light on Republicans, I'd line up with you. But instead, it is. Every time a Democrat, he was completely all about the Epstein files when he thought Clinton was the star of the show. Now that it's Trump, yeah, you know, this just doesn't seem to look good.

We'll see what it's kind of awkward though. The conspiracy guys are not going to back off. Everybody who's been a conspiracy guy for a while with this Epstein stuff with the pizza gate, none of them are going to back off of this ever. QAnon is saying Trump is on the inside trying to. take these pedophiles down. Q&ONN is for retards. That's not the same as the Pizza Gate or the Epstein stuff. Okay. That's what popped in my head when you said conspiracy guys. Oh, no. That's where the Pete's gate came from. Well, Pizza Gate seems pretty real now, doesn't it? Parts of it might.

Parts of it, but also like, it's hard to be very specific with like not falling into any nonsense we see because we know how the Pizza Gate shit went and they just all these conspiracy guys destroyed their credibility when they went all in on facts that were totally untrue like Comic Pizza has a has a has a basement totally untrue best of pizza nearby had a basement comment ping pong did never never had a basement and so like that was all the media latched onto back then if you guys recall where they were like these people are full of shit there's no truth to this they say there's like a pizza code about pedophiles? Well, there's not even a basement. And so all of it's thrown out baby bathwater

style. And I don't want to see that happen with this. I want these people fucking thrown in prison for the rest of their lives if they're found to be guilty, which means we need the victims to name names. We need the politicians like Massey who say they have names to fucking name them. And we need all the files released. Because the idea that people who are entirely compromised by a foreign government are making decisions on behalf of Americans is unpalatable. That's got to stop. That's done. Enough. I don't know how you're going to compel the DOJ that works for the head pedophile to file charges. Your best bet would be the next administration, but this administration is going to blanket pardon his entire cabinet.

His entire cabinet will be blanket pardoned. The only way this ever sees the light of day is if Donald Trump does a natural death in the next couple years. Because maybe J.D. Vance doesn't blanket pardon. Maybe President Vance has a little integrity. and he's like, you guys are actually pedophiles? I mean, I just fuck out. You see, kids? That would be sad to be so funny.

It's not true, but it's funny. It would be satisfying to see these people. Dude, that's light baggage compared to what the rest of the people around him have. Like, J.D. Vance walks through an auto term. They're like, you couch fucking coward. Donald Trump walks through. Oh, my God, the things they could say this man is probably done. Kyle, JD.

What percentage are you? A true. A good face guy. What percentage are you that Donald Trump eight children meet? Although, I would say, he seems too picky. He's a McDonald's, dude. I, if you would have said the same thing with Jeff Epstein, did I say it wrong? Jeffrey Epstein, I don't know why.

I call him, Jeff. We're close. I'd be like, ooh, I don't know, 50, 80. It seems like there's some evidence. Like, they're about that. But to say that Trump himself did it, I don't know Why are none of these elected officials

talking about like they're not even referencing Israel in all this they're not even referencing because they're controlled by You don't get primary Like you want them to pump 800,000 dollars into your

opponents like Senate committee Like I don't Do you see how troubling that is That our elected officials would be afraid The Israelis have our interest at heart, Taylor I wish you'd get in line with Kyle and I and respect our overseers. I didn't see it.

Batman. He's the president that he deserved, but not the one that... He's got a lead from the shadows. Like, the BB Netanyahu administration has... I mean, did you see the Dow? Did you see the NASDAQ? Are you even looking at the NASDAQ, Taylor?

I didn't even look at the NASDAQ. I mean, a hiring in health care is going off... I heard about a few ladies of the night from Russia. Like, come on. But like everyone who isn't an elected official knows who is behind this honeypot. And there's not a single, even Massey, even Rokana, the guy's kind of leading the charge. None of them are willing to talk about how this relationship with Israel is where we have elected officials controlled by a foreign government. And J.P. Morgan, apparently.

And J.P. Morgan. By the way, have you ever seen a picture of the original J.P. Morgan? With the nose? Is he Morgan? With the nose. I was talking about the nose. Yeah, if you look him up, Woody, he was like very self-conscious. He had some sort of, Kyle, do you know what it's called?

It's some shit that some people get where like their nose just keeps growing and getting I thought it was, I thought it might have been syphilitic like growth. But it looks like he's got like a tumorous sort of fibrous growth about his nose. And it's really horrific to look at. and that must have sucked so bad because he was worth like hundreds of millions of dollars in a time where a nickel would buy you dinner like he was so unfathomably wealthy

that like he could have been really living that old timey lifestyle but I bet he was like embarrassed to go outside how much money did he have unlike bang this dude I mean enough to make a tempting hundreds of millions of dollars I mean I'd do that for 2026 dollars oh yeah I get the inflation.

I'd kiss it. Oh, oh. If that's what it took, Tom, it looks like it needs draining. Little pieces of that. Look at that fucker. I want to hit that. Dude,

what if I, what if I introduce him to Biori strips and it fixes itself all up? I get him on the popping subreddit and one of those fiends over there just straightens him right out. I don't think he can pop that. I think that's like a,

I don't think that's pus. I think it's like gross. He needs plastic surgery. They could have fixed this today. I think so too. Yeah, yeah. Also, I just have a little experience with this. Nose flesh grows back great because that's where my cancer was. Cancer flexing on us for no reason.

I kind of work it into every show on this. Yeah, that nose is gross. That reminds me of like Kim Il-Sung, which is like Kim Jong-un's grandfather. He had this big like, I don't think it was a tumor, but it was. was a maybe a non-cancerous tumor. It was this growth on the back of his neck above his shoulder. And it was like a big deal not to photograph that. Like in country, it never would have happened. But I think he met with Khrushchev or some Soviet dignitary or premiere or something like that. I think a Soviet like photographer, like got a shot of it. And it looks like he's,

it looks like a giant fucking round tumor on the back of his neck. It's super gross. It is gross. It like took up where some of his hair should have been growing, so it looked even more unnatural. Do you remember that? Like it didn't grow hair. And so it like stuck up like halfway to the crown of his hair. North Koreans are fascinating. You remember he took him, M. Zhong, which is the current guy, he took out his brother-in-law or his uncle or something like that in that airport in South Korea. I think it's South Korea. Do you remember how he did it? That spray poison. So they paid a woman under the guys of hey you're on a reality show called whatever something goofy as a prank you're going to go up to that guy over there and you're going to rub this stuff on his face and she was like oh okay and you know

and she did it it's it's it's vx nerve toxin the shit from the um the the the rock that movie where the the commandos steal the vx nerve gas and threatened to to shoot san francisco with it and Sean Connery has to go save the day with Nick Cage, like an incredibly deadly nerve toxin. Rub it on the guy's face, and he died, like, pretty quickly. Did she know? That's how they assassinated him. I don't know how much trouble she got into,

because it really did seem like she was just a useful idiot. On your hand. They put, like, I think she had gloves or she, like, rubbed a cloth on him. There was some sort of delivery system like that. I thought it was some sort of spray thing on his face. Maybe I'm... I appreciate this video of her even, like, going up to him and doing it.

And it's fucked up. That is fucked. I think that his dad had somebody executed by strapping him to a cannon or something like that, which is an old colonial British thing that they would do to the end of an anachronism, but, you know. Yeah, I'm sure they used more of a modern cannon. They're not like back in that bitch. One of those nuclear silos they're going to test over Japan. The whole rock.

It's like a cartoon. and he's like, hanging out of the ICBM. He'll like out of the tip of it. It's funny. I think he's, they say he's going to make his daughter, the new leader of North Korea.

So we'll have a lady, North Korean leader someday. She's the, she's the next in line. He took over when his father died, right? Yes. Yes, he did. And he seems pretty young.

I don't age non-white people, like estimate age as well as I do white people. But what is he like? 35? Ah, 45 tops, I would say. Yeah. I think he just named her as his successor. 42.

Oh, yeah, just a young guy. He looks good for 42, I think. Well, he is a chubby Asian. He's not going to wrinkle up at all. I looked at the average weight of a man in North Korea. Something you said got me like doing 135. That's what I would have guessed. Yeah.

Yeah. Do you think it is in South Korea? What is it in South Korea? Because that's going to be super telling. It's heavier. I look up. I bet they're a good 15 pounds heavier. That's going to be my guest to 150.

What does it say? Ooh. I call it 163. Oh, yeah. Much healthier. Yeah. Dude, that's 30 pounds just across the border. That's a lot.

I just feel like a nation of 135 pound men couldn't do well in war. Like they would almost need smaller equipment. Especially with their logistics issues. It's not like they have all that automation that we have anyway. I bet some of their artillery systems need to be drug around and pulled and hooked up and stuff. It just seems like 135 pound man is a little guy. Right. Like that's what most girls weigh, like around 125, 135 pounds.

like well you know girls that you care to ask what they are care there's some heavy ones but those are just men with titties um but yeah they just seem too little to be combat effective like especially if you had to do anything strenuous over the course of days like i hear about those operations in iraq and afghanistan or they'd be up for three or four days just pushing just keep carrying that 150 pound rucksack from one rooftop to another and just keep pushing with no sleep and no rest and just fighting i don't know if you do that you're 135 pounds you don't have a lot of extra calories yeah he'd never make it as a roofer 135 000 you imagine carrying stringles up with a ladder no way oh fuck no i saw dana white say that um today was the day they begin um the white house card

scheduling the White House card, picking the fighters, the fights that are going to be on it. I'm really excited about the White House cart. I think that the drama of Trump's legal issue and this whole Epstein stuff makes me want to see it more, because I know he's going to be there and it's going to be a scene. And it's that moment where maybe one of these fighters gets on the mic and says something awful to his face. Like that could even happen, you know? I only came here for one reason to whoop this man's ass in front of the world's biggest pedophile. That would be funny. It should be a theme.

Does every fighter say anything? I saw a fight announcement that turned out to be fake, but it was Connor McGregor versus Colby Covington. Saw that as well. I'd like to see that. That's a really interesting idea. Probably a rassal fuck him. I don't know. And Connor's so old.

Connor used to have really good takedown defense. Like, Kavib did not take Connor down at will or with ease. I mean, he did, obviously. We saw what happened. But he put up a hell of a show against the sass. He got him down a couple times, but it was at the end of the rounds, and it didn't come to much. And McGregor fucking pieced him up.

That slow-mo, I can picture it where he's, like, coming with extra punches as Mendez is going down, like down into the right of the camera. That was amazing when he fucked up, Mendez. I don't know. They're both so old. Connor is such a, like, who even knows? I said maybe a year ago that I don't think he'll ever fight again.

Like, I eventually jumped on your team on. this because I was buying into it for so long. I knew that he was trying to boost his social media. I knew that he's a great marketer and he's making millions just not fighting and he's already a hundred millionaires so he has a lot of reasons not to fight. But this is a big show. I truly think this is going to be the biggest UFC card ever. I think that it's going to bring eyes who would never watch a UFC fight just to watch the spectacle of the White House card because of Trump, the White House, world politics, what have you. I think it'll attract. the global audience.

I think it's going to be a huge deal. And what a win for Paramount. They might actually get their money out of this. But where the counterfeights, I would, I bet on Polly Market right now, the best bet is that he will not fight. Because I just think he's,

I don't believe he can do a thing until he does a thing at this point. He ain't done a thing in, it feels like a decade. Is that going to be a good card? It's going to be, they're going to make a massive deal of this. They're going to try to make it all title fights,

like even if they have to strip people and have two guys fight for the belt like like Tom Aspin they'll make up imaginary belts they'll do a bad mother they'll put the bad motherfucker professional fighting is good at like made up trophies in a moment so they'll be they'll find the UFC literally has fabricated the amount of thin air and like this is the bad motherfucker belt and it's like okay dude and then like the nice guy like like uh karate um what's his name the nice guy that does karate uh wonder boy wonder boy's like how about a nicest motherfucker belt anybody Are you're looking forward to the Epsine imitational? It's going to be huge, dude.

They're saying six or seven fights on the lawn of the White House with some sort of jerry-rigged outdoor octagon. These are all things that have never been done. They've never had an outdoor fight like that. We dreamed of having it on Fight Island, like Mortal Kombat style. Now they're going to do it. They're going to be on the lawn of the White House with an octagon. How many people do you think it'll sit?

Three to five thousand. I think Trump said there was going to be 100,000. Trump is an imbecile. Yeah, he's not going to let a hundred thousand people ruin the lawn. There aren't 100,000. Sanford Stadium doesn't see 100,000. The home of the Georgia Bulldogs.

There are only a handful of stadiums in the country that do 100. That's like Michigan maybe or Notre Dame. Ohio. Ohio State? Some of those like. Okay. You know who doesn't have it? The White House front lawn.

The White House? I don't think they're going to get it built. It would take up the whole front lawn and most of the highway. Like a hundred thousand. What's it look like where the East Wing used to be? Can we put a stadium there real quick? If you want to do a polymarket on that, I say the East Wing will not even be close to completed by the time Trump leaves office. There will be wreckage and like dirt and rubble there when he leaves office.

That's what you think. Oh, yes. I don't know, but that would please me. And you know why? I just don't want Trump to decorate it. I don't think he does that well. Like I think I'm told that the White House needs. ballroom. I've seen events where they put like lawn furniture on the grass and stuff. And it's like,

yeah, we're too good a country for tense. Let's just agree that the president's job involves inviting foreign dignitaries and their ensembles. And then we need to have some sort of meeting place that can seat a lot. Okay. Can we also agree that Trump's decorating has a leaves a lot to desire? See, that doesn't matter because whoever is currently elected gets to redecorate everything, right? I know they do the Oval Office. I'm not sure they do everything. They move paintings around. They get paintings out of storage because

Trump famously dug up the Declaration of Independence, I think. And put it in his office. You know that, right? They put the real Declaration of Independence in his office like he's Nick Cage and National Treasure. I don't think you had to dig that up. I think we had it, right? We didn't know where it was. We had it in a vault.

They had it in a fucking titanium vault that like goes underground in an elevator at the Smithsonian or some shit like that. They had to like pull that thing out of archives and like carefully get it to his office where it is right now. I hate that, Taylor, I hate that so much. Really?

Who things cares thing to hate it's given all the nonsense? I look at that. So I hate it too, but then I ask myself, do you just hate it because you don't like Trump? Would you hate it as much if it was, I don't know your guy, like whoever that is? Yeah. I should be digging up the Declaration of Independence. Yeah.

It belongs in a museum. It's selfish. Like if the next president is... He doesn't even know what it says. If he was some sort of constitutional scholar or some shit or historian, I bet you, you're like, Mr. President, tell me what that document means. They did something like that, and he got it wrong.

Like, he didn't know what he was using. He was like that. Like, he just... It was... He'd just love it. He's got to read it. It's not very long. It's not that long. He can't read that.

You've seen his notes. They're fucking jumbo size. That's old-timey cursive. He can't even, that man can't recursive. Oh, no, he's a boomer. Boomers are the last remaining cursive among us. That old-timey cursive, though. I don't know if he knows that shit.

He seems like a catch-up burger kind of guy. I bet he can't recursive. He seems like an imbecile. Actually, I'll tell Zach, find an image of some of the cursive on the Declaration of Independence. I want to see what their cursive looked like. because I wonder if it went the same way as what we see now because no one my age

No one my age writes in cursive even though I think I was one of the last generations that had to learn cursive in school I don't know if they even do cursive for kids anymore This is how I Oh this is more tough to read because of the blurriness But the blurriness and the thinness of some of the lines Is messing me up

It's pretty impressive. Oh boy I can't I can't read that at all. Okay, we the people I got. Insure. Do ordain and establish this Constitution. And our posterity. Do ordain and establish this constitution. Article 1 is way too little from my terrible eyes.

Honestly, it's not my ability to recursive. It's just too small. And sometimes the line is so tight. Yeah, we can easily read the top lines. It's not that hard. We can read all of this. This looks like normal cursive. Sure.

Agreed. Yeah. Do you guys ever write? I wonder who actually penned the thing. Like, who did that? Do you guys ever, when you're writing, like, jot something down? I barely write. Like, the few times I have to make, like, a paper check, I'm like,

fuck. Can you guys look away while I try to sort this out? Can I do this in private? It's been a while. You grab it like a, like a fucking egg. Right. Yeah. Sorry.

No. I don't write much at all. I took notes today. I like notes on the Apple. You know, I write cursive when I take notes. Do you? Yeah. When you write in normal text, do you do block or do you write like lowercase?

Lowercase. I do the same thing. That's another boomer thing I noticed that's weird. It's like when people, like they write all caps. Oh. In text. no i write in proper pronunciation yeah i do too if i'm writing someone a note i'll do i won't write cursive because i know some people can't read it but if i'm like writing my own notes or something i it's incursive

i've only just started texting like a normal person my texts up until like 20 25 would have been fine by any english teacher you know like full sentences punctuation proper capital capitalization, like everything. And they're like, you're like such a boomer. And I look at it and I'm like, I can't see the problem. It's perfect. It's grammatically ideal. But I guess that is boomer.

I don't think that's boomer. I stand by that. Texting in full services is a good thing. And I don't like when people do that like zoomer fake blaze text, it's like I know that the first letter of your post or your thing is capitalized by default. fault on the iPhone, which means in order to look pass-A and devil-may-care, you backspaced, made the first letter of your text lowercase or your tweet or your post or whatever to try and appear to care less. And it's like that's a very performative way of actually caring a lot.

I don't know. I don't want to say very much, but I've been texting Mr. Beast. And I'm like, Green Bubble, who is this poor I'm talking to? he was right he really is reinvesting everything for yourself did you not listen Android is the way who's he helping most recently he already he ticked the blind off his list

I think he had the lame walk the blind scene I don't know if he's done any lame stuff yet I thought he helped some kids with crutches or something, maybe some landmine victims or something. Oh, Jesus. I'm just making that up.

I don't know. Seems like something he'd do. Right? We brought 10,000 fake feet to Cambodia. In my effort to outdo Jesus again and again, I've handed out tons of alcohol. It's like, oh, man. I've turned your entire clean water system.

him into wine. Jimmy, it's not that I think it's a bad idea. It's that you're making these crippled guys spend a long time in a shipping container to get it. Maybe less time in the shipping container to qualify for the legs. That's what he should give. He should hand out those blade legs that that murderer in South Africa had. Oscar Pistorius. Oscar Pistorius.

RIP. Not RIP. He's a murderer. He got out of prison, I think. Maybe not dead. If he got out of prison. then those guards need to be fired. I don't think he escaped.

Well, he got a run and start, and then he'd let clear out of the war. He may be like a kangaroo. He's bigger and bigger blights. We thought, what's the harm? Turns out quite a bit. He's leaping across the epic now on the way to Perth. Do they let the guy go?

Is Oscar persistent? story is free. He wouldn't be dangerous at all if they, like, banned his blade legs. He is free. After nine years after the murder of Riva Steencamp, his girlfriend, I think, maybe wife, something like that. Yeah, he shot her through the bathroom door claiming he thought she was an intruder. But he shot her, like, all the times.

Nine years for murder? How does that fucking gel? You man's a goddamn hero. He's the blade runner. All right? Let's, let's. That's kind of a little flat. He is the blade runner.

And I bet he looked pathetic in court without his blades. Oh, you know he did. He had to crawl up. He crawls from his seat all the way to the bitch. Please rise. Not sound smart, yeah, are you? He's staring at his little stubs. we're going to sentence you to walk around on very silly sounding accordions for the rest of your life

did he wear the blades everywhere because that seems like more of a sporty you know walking thing he had to play it up well if you're going to like go to a court you'd think you'd have some dress legs just like shoes right you wouldn't wear the same shoe that you'd take go out for a jaunt in the park the court you'd have some dress legs I bet you're right And he was probably well off enough That he had his blades And then he had dress legs

I wonder if he got taller When he lost his legs Because I would I would for sure I'd put some big old blades I'd be like how tall are you guys 6 2 6 3

Yeah me too You know Tall as you want Yeah Looks like you're walking on like Two of those Like penny farthing Front wheels

Dude I get special legs for what I see Harley. Just be seven foot. The stills. No, the reason my arms appear so short is an illusion. I'm actually tall and not a murderer, but he was a murderer.

Do you remember that parameder pilot whose wing collapsed at like a hundred feet and he got really injured? He did another update video. And he's, not sure what to do with this arm. So the bone inside the arm isn't healing. He's had surgery after surgery and they keep doing these things.

Like here's a little starter bone in there where maybe it can like connect and find each other. And it's just, it's been a while now. Like what a year and a half maybe? And the bone is not coming back. And like he's in total like dedication. to healing mode. He's totally optimizing his diet. He's moving.

No other hobbies. He's really focused. He's really like hyper focused on making his arm the best it can be. And like I launched it. I was like, yeah, it sounds like you're doing everything right. I'm not a doctor, but I am an experienced bonebreaker.

And see, he has a couple choices. Like you've all heard of knee replacements and they're pretty darn good, right? Elbow replacement suck. They suck. The weight capacity on an elbow replacement for life is five pounds. So you can write, you can turn a doorknob, but five pounds is really restrictive. And his arm as is is also really restrictive.

And one of the options is amputation. And I heard that and I thought probably what you're thinking right now is like, No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We worked to fix this thing for like nine years before we consider amputation. But he's like, just open your mind. And it would be nice to not be fragile again. This guy is a combat veteran, right? This guy is an outdoorsman.

And he has been on a restricted life now for, I don't know, 18 months. I don't have a good vibe. And I'm like, I could. If my options were this natural arm seemingly not healing on schedule, an arm that can lift five pounds, right? Like he has kids. He wants to wrestle and stuff. Or a darn good arm that stops, you know, around the bicep. It's like, I don't know what I'd pick. But I do know all three of those options would have their own appeal.

Yeah. And it is a rough place to be. I wish the best for him. Yeah, I'd have to shop that thing off. Right? And I would, you would hope that you would hope that maybe because it's an elective sort of amputation, they'd be able to utilize the nerves that go down into his hands into a prosthetic.

Maybe the technology's not there, but you would think that like you've got all the nerves that go all the way to his fingers. Like, can we get those to actuate a fucking robo glove? I don't want a hook hand. And I see, I know every now and then I see a Reddit video and they're like, oh, look this person with like a fucking data hand. They've got a hand like Luke Skywalker. It's like, oh my God, my God,

they fixed it. But then you see like people in real life and they all got goddamn. There's fucking punching holes in their punching holes in their own burritos making a mess. They have like two that squeezed together. I think it seems like something I imagine, you know, like a. Yeah, but like they're not good at the thing. This thing right here is so good. Like I can quickly grab a piece of paper, but I can also grab.

You can't get the responsiveness and the tactile feel. Hands rock. hands rock there's no replacement for a hand like hope suck I think you're going to end up with a hook like at the end of the day you know but it wouldn't matter I did when you heard amputation instantly think no no no no last choice and then when you hear like but you could be a durable human again you know like it's like oh shit I I kind of see how that ranks almost even with the other two choices yeah yeah I think I would amputate it. If it's just a bag of bones and they're talking about experimental treatments and shit, it's like, I'm not betting on that. I want to start living my life again. There's got to be some sort of science or technology that can force that bone to regrow. I bet they took a shaving of his like hip bone and put it in his arm and it still didn't work. I bet they've dried a lot of stuff. He's like escalated a couple of doctors. So like I feel like I know how to be a patient. I'm

more experienced as a patient than most people. And I don't have any criticism of the way he's gone about this. Like he sought out a great doctor. He drives like seven, eight hours now to like see his surgeon and get checked up on. He got the guy in Texas. And I don't know. I guess I listened to how much longer he wants to try to fix this thing. You know, at what point does the doctor say, eh, let's talk about plan B and C.

Like that, because that's a big thing in life for me. You know, like when I hire an attorney, I have never said, that doesn't sound right. I don't know. I've had a couple semesters of business law myself, you know. Like, no, no, no. I hire an attorney. I listen to my attorney. When I hire like a freaking structural engineer, I listen to my structural engineer.

And when I hire a surgeon, I give that, like, I don't, I want to hear what he has to say. His advice is paramount. Yeah. That's horrible. left arm right arm it's his dominant arm is what was his dominant right arm yeah and this whole time I was picturing

as my left you know I don't know if you were too Taylor but I was picturing I was give me that hook where I can like like maybe I got like three or four hands like one to jerk off with like like if we're going to have special hands let's let's make that one but you know I mean some people say people who break their arms

get ambidextrous at that I wouldn't know they sometimes you do it just for a change of base. I don't know about you, but one of my concerns would be game. Oh, who's this? You know? If you broke your arm at 17,

you'd know what the fuck you would do. Oh, I did. I was without my dominant hand for a while. Lefty got real good after a few weeks. Yeah. I was like, do I switch back now that's righty's back in the game? And I'm like, I don't know, boys. Let's have a little contest.

Wouldn't you know it, He was softer from no use. I mean, now that I'm a mangrown, it changed you hands. He had been in that glove for a few weeks. He was so soft and smooth, like virgin palm. This thing over here was just a roughed up blown out. He had one of those hands like that guy from mice and men. Yes.

It was kept soft. He keeps that hands off for his own penis. Like I'm plowing with a mule. Yeah. Yeah, I would cut it off and get the thing because you want to start getting good with the fake hand, whatever you call it, as fast as you can and start getting back to real life. I don't know, man. Losing that, I wouldn't want to give up hope on my right arm. Like that's, I do fucking everything with that.

I mean, really, I want to know what the doctor says. Does the doctor say, like, I know a little. The doctor, so the big, the, Anthony's name. He looked at the. He looked at the. x-ray, like a regular person and is like, looks worse, right? Like, you know, bones look white and bone looks not white. He's like, it's almost darker where I was hoping bone would have regrown. But the doctor saw some positive things in there. And I looked at so many x-rays that I know I suck at it. And you got to listen to what the doctor's seeing. Not you. Why can't they put enough

hardware in the meat glove that is his arm because like his hand I bet is still fine right? Well it was her but yeah I mean he's still move it he's describing not being able to use his pinky

and ring finger which I think ulnar nerve damage maybe during some of the surgeries I don't know okay well I mean still like if you've got three you know yeah that's a watchee baby you can you can get it done yeah exactly smoke a cigarette like a Frenchman I would hate to never be able to game again.

And like, I'm already not as good as I would like to be, but to take a step down would be just so hard to touch the stomach quitting. If my KD goes to like 0.7 or some shit, I'm not even a one KD player anymore. It's like, why don't we even get up in the morning? You know what I mean? Like, I wouldn't want to. If I could, that's my mouse hand.

Like, even if I get a prosthetic that ends with a mouse somehow. Like, what am I clicking with winks? I fucking wink in the clicket people into it. You have to be like stomping on your desk. Fucking doing an dance over here like I got Parkinson's. That would be so sad. That would be. I got a game. Why would

did he give any explanation or I guess what the doctors said? Like why would a bone just not shattered? He didn't say why it didn't grow. I know they put some like like fake bone

in there hoping that it would be a bit of a bridge for it to grow around and it didn't work like they hoped. He had compartment syndrome at one point. Do you guys, well, even if you know what that is. Yeah, it means that fluids get pumped in, but they get stuck there. And it's super dangerous. It could be a reason that an amputation would happen, but they addressed it and it doesn't have it currently.

So there were a bunch of complications along the way. He hasn't been a perfect patient. You know, I saw him upload some video. have been on his ATV riding around in the desert and it's like all right you know you got a sling at least like no it's flapping no getting caught on a cactus and shit so he did some stuff too early but i don't think that it's the cause of the bone not regrowing uh yeah no you know um that sucks that's horrible Yeah. I wish that he was healing better. He hit so hard though.

Anybody who hasn't seen the video, I don't know what it's called anymore. I don't care to see it again because he hits so fucking hard on his, I thought it was his left side, but he hits so hard. And then afterwards, he's an agonizing pain and he's very loud. And it's hard to like, you don't really see anything once he's on the ground, but you hear him screaming and moaning and pain. And it's like, man, he's going through it. You know, yeah, that's rough. Yeah, there's a really bad altitude to fly it. Like if you fall at six feet, then it's really not that much different than a dirt bike fall, which, you know, I've had six in a day, right?

And if you fall at a thousand feet, well, there's some time to fix problems. There's reserve parachutes, stuff like that. But if you fall at 100 feet, it's just as hurtful as a thousand or even 10,000. But there isn't much time to fix it. and that's what happened. Oh, yeah. This is so scary. Like, thankfully, the YouTube short I found cuts out before the brutal impact and he's screaming.

But it's so out of nowhere. Like, he's, he's smiling at all the time. And then it's just instant. And he knows what he's doing. And there's nothing to be done. Like you said, like, what are you going to do, maneuver your way out of this from 85 feet in the air? Like, probably not. Yeah, I've, I've watched a whole thing.

lot of like flying accidents. And this daydream I have is that I can take their spot. Like that guy didn't catch the surge. He didn't pump out the cravat. Like like I could fix this. I wish that I could take his spot for him and then give it back once he's safe. Uh, in Anthony's case, there's no fixing that. There was no time.

It would, it would take a 150 feet just to fix it. And he didn't have it. So does the community judge? Jim for the fall and the injury? Like, is the community like, this is tragic? Or are people like, well, you know, he should have, he's experienced enough to know not to fly that low at this speed. Like, what's your take?

It's both. He was well known for doing low acro. And while he wasn't doing acrobatics at the time, he was pressing the speed bar at a dangerous altitude and it went south. There was also a little knot in the wing. like in one of the strings that would be very hard to spot and that contributed towards it too. But I'm trying not to be like a critical voice. No. But if anyone flies who hears this dude six feet or a thousand feet, not that in between.

That in between there's no fixing that. So this was not an equipment failure other than the knot in the string. There was a very subtle equipment failure that only manifested when he pressed at the speed bar. So there's a bar you push with your feet that makes the front of the wing sort of go down a bit. And it makes the wing faster, but it doesn't sores efficiently. So if you just want to go fast and you're on a motor where you don't worry about losing altitude, then you press the speed bar. In regular paragliding, you press the speed bar if you're in sinking air. And it's like, well, shit.

I'd rather fly in a way that I sink more just to get out of this sinking air because this is a terrible spot to be. It's a little complicated. But anyway, he pressed the speed bar to go fast and there was no time to fix it. So was it his fault? Well, the wing's not supposed to do that. And he might have known better. I could have missed the tiny little knot, you know, like in pre-flight or whatever. but I do wish that he was at six feet or a thousand feet.

Yeah. You never do. You only do acro very, very high, right? Yeah, yeah. I have this like code almost, you know, like different moves that I'll perform at different altitudes, the stuff that I'm maybe still learning or like that I think is the highest risk. I do at the very top.

And then I'm like, below 2,000, we don't touch this shit. Below 1,000, we don't do anything at all. and that's why I have a watch because it's not easy to estimate. And also it is easy to lower your standards and be like, eh, it looks okay. But when you have a number that's in a code, your standards don't change. Smart.

That's why this is not going to happen to you. Jeez. That fall is so horrible. Right? That's bad. There's nothing he could do once it started. Yeah. That really sucks.

sucks. Yeah, yeah. And I wish the healing was better. What would be your main prosthetic hand attachment, Taylor? Realistically, you're going about your day. You can only pick one, you know? I'm imagining there's a hook that has a lot of uses with a little clampy thing. They have the little pincer hook thing. Yeah, that's common. Yeah. I don't know what's better than that. Your charcutory hand, of course. That would be my charcutory hand where I could delicately pick bits of cheese.

No, no. You're going to have like multiple like forks and skewers on there so that you can, you'll be like Edward Cisorhands, but each finger has a different like delicate meat or artisanal cheese, a little burrata on your pinky perhaps, a little hard salami from, from the Iberican region on your finger. So a little hardy on that middle. If you limit ourselves to five fingers, we're essentially a mech man now. 30 fingers. You know, whatever you need. Maybe not 30. Maybe not 30. That's a lot. 30 seems excessive.

30 is a lot. Okay. I like that idea. I think hook would have to be the main thing. And in this fantasy, it's my left hand. My right hand is still my go-to guy. That's a good fantasy. Yeah.

In the fantasy, my fantasy, my left hand is the one. In my fantasy, I didn't lose either hand, so I have two hands. So I'm thinking about it. I think that I would go for a hand-looking hand, even if it wasn't as useful as like the pincher hooks, like maybe they grip harder or do more or pull better. it's like I'll do everything I can with my good hand but if I had a hand that could grip it all and move I think I'd take that

just for vanity reasons over like a hook or a pincher hook maybe one of those like completely useless Jamie Lanister hands made of gold so now you're like the remaining bit of your left arm's getting yoked you're now the homies on the block beat you up and take your hand it's fools gold I have a pyrite hand Bullshit You can't smell pyrite

Get his ass They kill me From my pyrite hand I don't know I don't think there's a good option there Because hands just dominate All the fake hands Like hook would

If anything I would want Like sort of a show hook That's like a Almost a captain hook Sort of thing Like very girthy and strong That would be my formal wear Captain.

My former wear is an Iron Man looking hand with a light on the back of it. Does it do anything other than the shine the light? It's really bright though. Okay. You're being asked to leave the macaroni grill. I think, I bet there's a market for this.

Are the Americans with Disabilities Act? You can't pick me out. I have the idea of exploring and taking advantage of niche. markets. Now, a man who loses his hand, it's a terrible thing, and I'm sure he's going to be no stranger for aesthetics. It's also not going to be a stranger to not be able to please his lady as well as he once could in the bedroom. What if we give him an advantage? What if we make him more handy than a two-handed man could ever dream to be? What if we give him some sort of a rigidious? Hulk-busting punching facility that Ironman had? I'm getting ideas. Yes. Like, he threw a

punch, but then, like, his suit was mechanized in such a way that, like, The punch through itself sort of, like a machine gun sort of fashion. Like a jackhammer? Yeah. Yeah. Dude, I bet there's a lot of one-handed fellas out there that would love to have some sort of reciprocating dildo hand. Yeah, you just pop it on. Like, you would need like sort of a whole closet of different hands for different purposes.

You have your sex hand. You have your out-to-dinner hand. You have your intimidating pirate hook. Like peacemaker with the helmets. Sure. That helps you. It does. Just a trench coat of hands that you choose from.

Did you like episode two? I didn't make it through. I mean season two? I'm sorry. I meant to say season two, yeah. Let me remember back to what it was about. Yeah, I liked it. I thought the multiverse stuff is a little,

I'm a little tired of multiverse shit, but I liked what they did with it. I liked that it allowed him to reconnect with those dead characters and such. Yeah, I liked it. I liked the Eagley stuff with Michael, Michael Rourke or whatever his name is. Mickey Rourke? No, no, no.

Is that his like assassin friend? Swinging a mess? Okay, I try. It's the eagle hunter. No, the eagle hunter guy with the scar on his face. He's the blue guy. He's like Zandu or the blue guy from Gavarings the galaxy. He was Merle from, he was Merle in Walking Dead.

Rooker, Michael Rooker, thanks. Okay. That guy was like some sort of bald, eagle hunting like hunt like I liked all that I liked all that silly shit so yeah I didn't think it was as good as the first season obviously that opening episode or two when he gets into that fight with the girl in his underwear and he's singing into the Hitachi magic wand that that's hard to top but so yeah I didn't like season two as much but I did like it didn't lose me anything I really like his sociopath

like Jeffrey Dahmer buddy like that guy always gets a laugh out of me like he's literally like a serial killer and they're just, yeah, but it's our serial killer. He should be a star, really. I think a guy as much has seen his character. Vigilante is his name. Yeah, I would watch a vigilante's show. Vigilante is his name? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. This is James Gunn taking like, getting the rights to the cheapest of the cheap

DCU characters and then with his skill and expertise and casting, turning them into like blockbuster stars that get their own TV shows and shit. He did such a good job. But Pocod Man seems like so stupid. But when you watched by the end of the movie... That's not one. You made that up. Dude, by the end of the movie, you are feeling for Pocodat Man.

He is your favorite character and you're rooting for his redemption. What? He's a super villain, not even a kind of an average villain? He's part of the suicide squads where they forced the villains. What's his sinister power? Pocodot Man. His mother exposed him to an interdimensional virus because she wanted her kids to have power. I thought it was going to be an interdimensional Bavarian band.

No. And so now, like, every day he's, like, continuously regrowing these sort of, like, spots of some sort of interdimensional energies. And if he doesn't expel them, then he sort of, like, becomes all, like, fucked up by them. He's all bulging, and it seems painful and dangerous for him. But when he does expel them, he sort of, like, melts matter with them, it seems. I'd never heard of him, of course, until I watched the suicide squad. Quad movie. And there's another character

called Rat Girl. She controls rats. And like that sounds stupid. That is more intuitive than PolkaDot, man. But she's got like this whole horde of rats and it's like, God damn, a million rats is pretty powerful. We actually, the rats kind of save the day in the end. Like, they do heavy lifting.

Being on, if I were one of the heroes and I was assigned with her, ugh. There's a shark man. It might be like CGI rats. Yeah. They're definitely not real rats. There's like hundreds of thousands of them, and they're crawling on a giant starfish.

Yeah, you got that shark man is voiced by Sylvester Stallone. Why does he have shorts on? Cover his shark cock. Yeah, Jesus, Taylor. Why would... Did you want him naked? You want him to Speedo or something? There's a board shirt.

He's a Hawaiian shark god. I don't know. I thought a speedo would make a little more... I feel like you're being a little sharkist because you didn't ask that. I'm pretty sure that guy. I thought the shark's penises were like they were all. all up in their body until they... It's mystery, Taylor.

You didn't say, why is John Cena have pants on? Why does Harley Quinn have pants on? You went straight to the shark. Then you're being sharkis. Sharks don't have arms, Taylor. I know these things. They're not bipedal land creatures, Taylor. Yeah, they also don't have pectoral muscles.

I think you need to open your mind to the possibility. This guy might have some anatomical differences. You might be... Who's that loser, like holding up two boomerangs? That's Captain Boomerang I'll have, you know. Captain Boomerang. Marang? I'm not sure because he dies really early. This is the gayest group of

superheroes. That's the point. I think it might exact exact fact. Who's that little critter between John Cena and the lady on the lady? Oh, that's weasel. So weasel is actually, he eats children. Like he's literally

a child eating supervillain who's like a man weasel. Oh no. There's poking out on the right, Taylor. I don't know how you pictured him, but there it is. Yeah, way on the Right. Far right. Jeez. They looks like a Soviet.

And that's Michael Rooker. That's Michael Rooker there with the red sort of leather top and the long, straight blonde hair in the back. Behind Captain Boomerang. Yeah, yeah, that's Michael Rooker. What is the shark guy's power? Like, he's... He's a fucking shark.

He bites humans in... He's so strong. He, like, bites people's, like, top section off and rips their bodies apart, like, bisects them with his bare hands. And he's super durable. So he's, like, he's like, like bulletproof. You can survive, you know, like big car accidents and stuff. Does he go back to, can he change into a normal person? That's his entire form. He doesn't mutate

into anything else. He's very slow-witted and seemingly always quite hungry for man flesh. That would be a terrible one to have. You can't even go to restaurants. You can't do, you can't do. Oh, no. You can't exist in society. He's stuck. Yeah. I would much rather be. Only he developed the taste for rats. We've got millions of them apparently. She seems to be friendly with the rats. I don't think she would lead them to their doom. No, now we're cooking with gas. I'm not even kidding.

That's a good fucking movie. Like, I tear it up. There's no possible way. It's a good movie. I'm telling you. Did you see that photo? That was like if you put me in charge of making fun of superhero movies. That's what they do.

It really is good. Like, I swear to God, first of all, half those characters die in the first five minutes. Like, that's kind of part of, that's Weasel. that's weasel this movie boy dude what's the rotten tomatoes on this movie's at show me the rotten tomatoes on wait that's a character

from the movie you're defending you cried at this movie this guy dies in the first 10 minutes of the movie he it they dropped them all in the water to do this landing but they were like wait does weasel swim

and he just drowns immediately I mean it's like and he drowns that seems like the best for everyone yeah look Get rid of Weasel. Oh, 90 and 82. Hmm.

The Suicide Squad. I mean, it's good, but it's so Melania. It looks pretty dumb. Melania had better audience scores, just saying. I'm telling you, this movie is self-referential. It's funny. It's comedic. It doesn't take itself too seriously.

But it's, and it gets a little handy by the end. That's what I want is I want a superhero movie that doesn't take itself too seriously. We're in a dart. We're in a doth of that over the past 15 years. Are you serious? Have you not seen the Zach Snyder like Superman movies? Or like that, yeah. Incredibly dark. Super cut thing, yeah.

No, I haven't seen the Zach Snyder superhero movies or a super man movie. It's only four hours, Taylor. You might like it. Wow. Only four. Is that the movie where like that dog tackles that person in bad CDI? No, that's the new Superman. That one's actually rather lighthearted. There is a super dog. His name is crypto.

Crypto the Super Dog. Yeah. Characters like that usually show up in movies where it's like, who's going to win? The stakes are so high. Do you guys think Bitcoin, is this time different? Or is it about to rebound

and hit like half a million or something ridiculous? I don't know anything about Bitcoin. I just still feel like it's the same thing. Everyone acts like Bitcoin is a super tricky thing. Dude, it's just the solution to a math problem that people pay outrageous sums for no reason. There's nothing more to it than that. Something that I notice about Bitcoin and crypto is like, if I went on social media and all day, every day, I was like tweeting and posting like, gold is retarded. Only idiots invest in precious metals.

A bunch of gold people are not going to descend on me and be like, fuck you, you don't understand. They're going to be like, get a load of this tard. He doesn't understand the oldest currency that's ever existed more for me. But if you do that about crypto, you have a jillion people furious at you being like, you just don't understand it. You're going to be left behind this and that. And it's like, then shouldn't you be happy that there are people who don't get it to allow you to accrue more at a lower cost? like the fact you're so wrapped up in me also being bought in means that like in a way maybe

you do realize like this is going to eventually become a greater fool thing like you or that's what it seems like to me uneducated regarded I could be wrong but that's what it seems like Zach says Bitcoin goes up in the next 10 days you heard it here first maybe I don't I don't put it past it like I don't just put all your money in it, borrow money, put that in it too. You're going to want to cred max. Sam-eyed stuff. I just don't, I don't get it because nobody seems to actually make real transactions with it. And my friend who's really into crypto for years told me, kidnapped, you're going to wish you had a wallet. I don't think they've gotten the money, you know.

There's a guy, you want to know the latest on that? There's been happenings. And the, in the Guthrie kidnapping. Whispers? Whispers. So as of today, so you know they recovered that black and white sort of thermal looking footage from the door camera.

They had the time stamp for when that happened. And like five miles away and like 19 minutes before that, there's a guy that looks just like the kidnapper with the same bag and the same clothes, like doing some stuff behind

a house caught on camera there. And they blurred his face because they're not sure yet, but it's like, that's the guy. That's the guy. Like, they get him. I think they've got his face. But they put a guy in custody and then they let him go. That guy got released. That guy.

Yeah. This is a different guy that's caught on camera at a residence. Like I said, five miles away. This time, it's the guy. For sure. He's, I don't know who they detained before, but this guy has the backpack where the reflective stripes on the front and the same pants and the same shirt. And he's a white guy without a mask on.

And he's taken the backpack and concealing it like behind a wall on camera. Do they know who used to? Do they have this guy? They have his picture. They have that video as far as I know that's all they got. They're looking for this guy. But they haven't released a lot. On the other side of the thing, as far, there's someone contacting TMZ and the family and saying,

we know who took her. We know who did it. We will reveal the name for one Bitcoin. We are afraid of being our name drug, being drugged through the mud the same way you did, that gardener. We don't want being known as a national rat. We are, and we need this money to lay low if this thing goes the wrong way.

This is what they're saying. And the first message, and then they messaged again, this is our last message. If you want to know who did this, send me one Bitcoin or, and then the guy at Team Z, it's the main head honcho of TMZ. You may have seen him with like a short sleeve shirt, he's kind of muscled up, dude.

He's like, and I won't go into what he says might happen, but it's a bit grotesque. And what I read from that was that the message said, send me the money. She's going to be dead soon if you don't save her, like basically, something like that. So that's the latest that I've heard as of like 5 p.m. today. But it seems like the wheels are turning.

I said as soon as they had that footage of him, even though he's got the ski mask on, the balaclava or whatever, like just his build, his gate, like the shape of his body, like all that stuff and that clothing he's wearing was going to lead to something. They're going to get this guy. Did they release the picture of his face? No, it's blurred. They have a less blurred picture.

They censored, they applied a blur to his face. It seems like they would have a pretty good profile of his face. It's like a three-quarter shot. It seems like if they show his face, they'll know who this guy is in an hour. hour. I think that they don't want to they don't want to accuse like someone who was just taking the garbage out or something like that I think because they already have probably civil suits in coming because of they mistreated some gardener or something and they arrested some other guy under

it wasn't him who knows why or what's that Atlanta security guard who didn't put the bomb there I forget his name but I bet you know it it's important to know it because is it that Clinties would made a whole movie of Oh, the fat guy, Richard Jewell. Richard Jewell, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Richard Jewel in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, I believe, he's a security guard. He sees a suspicious package.

He radios it in, makes a big deal of it, clears the crowd. It was a bomb, I think. They were able to come in, I think, and defuse the bomb. If not for Richard Jewel, then a bomb goes off in Centennial Olympic Park, very populated area, and, like, maybe dozens die. He's the hero, right? No. They can't find the guy who did this.

The guy who did it, I believe his name is Edward Robert Rudolph. He had done a string of bombings. He'd bombed some abortion clinics in the southeast. I think maybe Alabama, Mississippi, somewhere like that. He ended up hiding out in the North Carolina woods, maybe South Carolina Hills, something like that. They caught him a few years later scrounged through dumpsters. It was a big news store when they finally caught him. But in the interim, they were running Richard Jules' name through the fucking gutter

on every news channel. the feds were pressuring him and it was awful the way they treated the hero like he was the guy who saved the lives he was the point man who had no business being as like he was just some chubby security guard

he wasn't he didn't think he thought he might break up a fight that day or like tell someone they can't sit on the fountain head you can't loiter at the orange julius he's that guy he's a mall cop but he saved the fucking day like he's John McLean and then they ruined his life like I said there's a whole Clint Eastwood movie about

What happens during the end? Does he get famous and Millie's famous, but does he get rich? I don't know his story. I would hope that he wrote a book that made him at least enough money to not have to worry about his ruined name and the deal, just the stress and humiliation that he got ran through all those false accusations. The show had to really reduce the false accusations, right? Because most people had no idea who that guy was, you know, up from down until they made the show. Well, it's a movie. It's Clint Eastwood movie that made about it. But it was national news at the time. We were hearing about

Richard Jewel every day on TV. It was all over the news about this guy they caught. They got him. They got the guy. It turns out that the security guard may be involved. They were trying to make him a terrorist. This reminds me of, did you guys ever watch that show on Apple TV I recommended a couple years ago, Blackbird?

Mm-mm. I think Woody would like it. I know. You would like it, Kyle. It's about a prisoner who goes to jail and there's a suspected serial killer in the jail already. They make a deal with the guy who's there on drugs to try and cope, to befriend and coax confessions out of the prospective serial killer because they can't get anything hard on the guy. But they really think it's him and he's locked up. It's very, very good.

So they send someone undercover? No. they convince a guy who's being sent on drug charges, a totally different guy, that you need to befriend this weirdo. And if you get a confession out of him on these things and you can prove it, then we are going to dramatically reduce your drug sentence

and you'll be out of here, you know, back to normal life on probation. Okay. If not, if you can't get this confession, then you're going to spend your whole 35-year sentence for hard drugs. And it's very good. Blackbird, I think it's on a half- Apple TV.

Yeah. It does a good job like because you don't know. Like the crux of it is as the viewer, you don't know whether or not the guy who's kind of a fat, goofy outsider who they think is the serial killer. You don't know if he is or not. And there's a lot of evidence this way

and that. And so it's not easy to nail down. But I wanted to mention this earlier. But I read a book last night. I read running man and that is a book that I had heard of it as a movie

I didn't even know that was a Stephen King book it's a super quick read Is it part of a larger book of stories Like a like is it a novella amongst many And a thicker book or was it solo? No I just had this I just bought the solo book At like this half price books store the other day It's only like 300 350 pages not very long

And the way it's the way it's structured There's like a giant like 87 087 and counting and like there's a countdown throughout the book that takes up a good bit of every chapter page so it's not even as long as you would think with 300 350 pages man that is the coolest like funnest concept ever

like it's sad the world sucks for people who haven't read it or watch the movie basically it's dystopian future it's actually it's set in 2025 which I thought was funny I didn't know about that. And it's set in 2025, the world stinks, and they have these games that are showed on the free V, which is state-run TV that's on every screen all over the place. And obviously, there's no concept of the internet or anything. This is written by Stephen King in like 1980 or something. And basically, if you're very poor and you're from south of the canal in this city, the way you can make money isn't through work because there's not any jobs left. You have to go compete in these games.

and they have games as mild as like, like if you have a heart or a liver or a kidney problem, they have a game where you have to just run on a treadmill. And every 30 minutes, they ask you a trivia question. And if you get it wrong, they remove 50 of your dollars and they increase the speed. And the goal is to get you to earn as much money as you can before you die. They put people with heart problems on there. And if you die, all that money goes to the person that you signed up to have the money go to. So these people are incredibly desperate.

And the most elite of these people who are applying to be part of the games are put into a game called Running Man. And what that is, is they basically release you from the TV studio after this very rigorous testing process. And they say you have 24 hours to get gone. And as soon as that 24 hours is up, a team of hunters, a team of bounty hunters, state agents with every bit of power at their disposal. are going to hunt you and they're going to find you and if they find you they are going to kill you and at the time you are killed you will have accumulated a hundred dollars a hundred new dollars there's old money and new money in this and you will have accumulated a hundred new dollars per hour you avoided capture and that will be sent to your next of kin and the longest anyone had ever

survived was eight days which means you had eight days of money sent and so if you get signed up for running man, it's almost a foregone conclusion. Like, you're going to die. You will not escape. They will find you. And you have to escape as long as possible. The big kind of goal at the end is if you can survive for 30 days, then you get a $1 billion prize of new dollars. And that would basically make you a king in this world. And no one's ever made it. And so it's tracking this guy, trying to escape, trying to flee, following his little bits of subversiveness, getting fake, ID's getting different places where he hides, different places where he has to, you also get money as a runner for killing law enforcement. You get an extra hundred dollars per cop in pursuit

of you that you kill. And so this guy got a lot of money that way too. A good amount of money. Is this what the movie Running Man is based on? Yes. Yeah, because there's a lot of similarities. Yeah. And everybody's told me the movie stinks. So there's the old Arnold Schwarzenegger version. It's very cheesy. Jesse the Body Ventura is in there. It's funny. It's more, it's best to watch as an action comedy and like, have fun at the cheesy lines and stuff, but it's not a serious movie. But it's essentially what you're describing.

Ben Richards goes on the Running Man TV show. He gets framed and he has to compete in it now. The new Running Man movie it's like a popcorn action movie, like a modern popcorn action movie, you know, fucking helicopters blowing shit up, and quirky characters and trying to escape and I can't think of that actor's name but he's pretty good it was okay like as far as popcorn action movies go it was like a Jason Statham movie

you know where he's jumping out of buildings and beating the shit out of a bunch of people and killing people it's just in the midst of that dystopic future that you described in the the weird free V and the TV show and all that stuff all that propaganda was cool they had a fucking Thanos is like the big network guy whatever who plays Thanos what's his name I always forget Josh Berlin maybe

Yeah that's it Yeah Josh Roland is like the Sort of the main villain in the movie He's the network executive Who seemingly has more power than the U.S. government And he's sort of pulling all the strings Yeah So I think that book

If people are looking for like a light popcorn action read Doesn't take too long Very entertaining little book I liked that a lot I'm not going to watch the movie Because you said it was terrible And I don't want to ruin my get that taste in my mouth.

But you liked the book as well? Yeah, yeah. The new movie follows the book really closely. Like, it's much more like the book. The old movie, it's not a 30-day thing. It's like they send him into the wasteland sort of, and then they send the one hunter after him. And the hunters are like WWF like superstars.

Like they're themed. It's like one of them's Electro. And he's like a lexland. retro-powered and I think he sings opera or some shit and then there's like sub-zero and he's like a hockey over here no it's hockey like he's a he's a big bruising like hockey guy and his stick has like a it's like a it's like a blade like he and he's like wrapping people up in razor wire somehow he lowers Arnold Schwarzenegger to a hockey rink I should have seen this coming It's so silly.

And then there's one that's like a flamethrower guy. You know, I think he's saying pyroro or something. He's got a flame throw or gauntlet. You know, it's shit like that. Well, I don't like that as much because in the book, they're like professional bounty hunters, not like themed heroes or villains or anything. It's just like FBI agents. Or like each of them seems to have a little bit of personality, but they mostly

wear masks when they're hunting, hunting him in the new movie. Like I said, it wasn't. terrible. It's just like I don't really like action movies anymore. I think I've seen every building and car explode and I've seen people get beat up over and over and shot over and over and it's like I'm not impressed by Jason Statham doing the same thing for the 50th fucking time. He's always... I don't understand. I'm a bit of a transporter. I watched Jason Statham scene recently. He arrives at a basketball court on a motorcycle with a girl. apparently this dude just hit the girl so he's going to make it right and he beats up everyone at the

basketball court it's the dumbest fucking thing ever there's no way jason's saying all the guys of the basketball court were very fit tall strong guys like jason stath them superior and he beats them all through i don't know like fake karate moves double punches like that and it was the late in the very end he puts the basketball in the guy's chest and stabs the basketball with knife and I'm like this are yeah dude I hated it also let me make my point but I don't think motorcycles are tough I think a motorcycle is a really vulnerable piece of equipment to show up on like you know it's hard cars cars are tough they're pretty rough trucks might be worse but motorcycles you're just a victim on that thing stop acting like you're a badass that would be my bounty hunter

thing they'd be like look out they call him the car he He never leaves it. He just driving you. I mean, I'm Scooter Man. He's one of the most dangerous bounty on us in the entire woo. He's just driving at people. Guys telling the tail with tread marks on his cheek. Yeah, you'd always lose.

Nobody beats the car. Think you can start trailer the tread? What's a hobby? People think is cool, but you think is stupid. I think that WWE fandom, I have a hard time getting behind it. I know I like the people who are into it. And I certainly wouldn't give them a hard time about it. But it's one of those things where like it seemed pretty silly to me.

We all like 1% of it, right? Every once in a while some delivers a banger speech. They're glimmers. And honestly, like I've gone back. YouTube for some reason, maybe the WWE YouTube channel puts them up, but like all the old Royal Rumbles, which apparently I didn't really know this. It's like all your favorite superstars have this free for all battle in the ring. And if you get thrown out, you're out.

And they just keep sending more. It's like that scene in The Matrix where like every five minutes you hear somebody else's music. And you're like, oh, I didn't even consider that he'd show up here. And like he comes in and writes the wrong that has been done in the ring. But wouldn't you know it? Boom, boom, boom, boom. And like the bad guys come and there's three of them. And they throw a good guy up.

You're making this seem pretty cool. I think it's important if you're going to hate on something to understand it. Last night, Chis tried to bait me. He's like, so what do you think are the main problems with basketball? And I laid out this like articulate three paragraph like take down a professional basketball. And he just went, well, I know you're going to make good points. I want to do that. I was sitting in bed last night.

I was sitting in bed last night reading Running Man, and I saw a message from you pop up that was like, must have been in the middle of that discussion because I saw it and it was like, I can't articulate the extent to which I think basketball is retarded in a bad sport. And then you proceeded to articulate the problem. Yeah. I agree. I don't get it. It's not for me. I don't think it's like gay or retarded. I just don't.

There's too much scoring. I think it's a fixed sport who hasn't updated its rules since the days of the peach bucket or whatever to make up for the fact that these men are seven feet fucking tall with wingspans that they go past that somehow. They're not even built like humans anymore. They're built like avatar characters or something like that. Hyper competitive. Like the speed, the size of these men is not what that court, that basket and that like board, like board. were designed for. The rules set wasn't designed for those men.

Make them play four on four. Yeah. They're like using rules that were made for like kids, like sixth graders in a gym in like 1930. What I also said was like I feel like they don't call traveling. They don't call charging and they don't call offensive fouls nearly as much as they should. And because they want these flashy plays to happen. So let's make the,

let's make the dunks and the layups one point now. Like if we're going to make it so easy, to penetrate. If it's going to be so easy to penetrate and get to the inside and you're, and you're not going to call charging, you're not going to call traveling, then it's not as valuable to it anymore. If it's so easy, then those will be one point. And then there'll be a two-point line and, of course, a three-point line. And I got what I said to him also last night, I know a lot of people want a four-point line. I bet Steph Curry would vote for a four-point line because he can knock him down. Five point line, half-court. I mean, why not make half-court five points? Like, like mix

it up. I also said I, the part of basketball at any level I like, and I know this is stupid, but it's the tip off. It's that part of the beginning where they throw the ball up and we can like jump to sort of like see who gets it. I want that happen regularly throughout the game. Anytime it goes out of bounds, I want that to be the procedure. No more inbounding and no more strategically out. Hockey kind of does that. Yeah, hockey does that with faceoffs. That would be good. I love the face off and hockey. What I really love is when at the face off, they drop gloves. it's like you weren't even you didn't even come here to play like why did you bring the gloves it was like wow you're so bad at face off so you had to resort to this

to try and oftentimes it's not the face off guys it's the two guys right outside the circle yeah you want to go I mean I never say no we just got here well my nose is still bleeding from last time we did this shit you want to stay on the team you want to go back you want to play for the san antonio rampage again I don't think so drop Do people ever say like, no, no, no, like my nose is already kind of broken and I had, I have a headache. I'm hoping I don't even get hit hard. Do they ever ask for like empathy ever?

No, the kind of guys who fight would never do that because they're going to get kicked down to the minors in a second. What you will see is I'm talking about the enforcer, right? But this is some guy like a defenseman, right? A guy who throws some checks here and there, but he's not known as a fighter. Does he ever say like, bro? just a bad day for me. No.

That is very, that is very anti-hockey culture. You can't do that. If you're throwing big hits, you have to answer the bell. The people who won't answer the bell, it will be like some goon skating up to Sydney Crosby or Connor McDavid or Alex Ovechkin and being like, hey, drop them. And then like OV or Connor McDavid will like skate away laughing. Like, are you serious? Like, do you think I was born yesterday?

You think I'm going to fight you as one of the best players in the world. Like, no, I'm not going to play into your strategy right now where your team loses some retard. And our team loses the best player on earth for five minutes. And so they'll just skate away. And some other goon on their team will take the fight, which is smart. You can't have your star taken fights. I get it about answering the bell, but I feel like there should be a, okay, okay. What you need to know is this tooth is loose.

Okay, so left only That'd be good So left's only Do they wear mouthguards? Yeah, usually I mean, they're out by the time they're fighting But they do wear their cards Why would you take your mouth guard off

For a fight? There's still a remaining like honor thing Like I told you So they changed the rule in the NHL Probably 10 years ago That you, no, no, no that you're not allowed, they made a rule briefly where they're like, if your helmet comes off in the fight, that's fine,

but you cannot remove your helmet prior to the fight. And so what players started doing is they would approach each other like halfway bowed, and then they would remove each other's helmets, and then they would spit their mouth cards out and fight. And then the NHL was like, you can't deliberately remove your helmet. So it's like moving our helmets with extra steps. Yeah, and that's all that it was. So I don't like them trying to punish fighting,

A mouthguards, though, like, is it a badge of, look, in MMA and Jiu-Jitsu especially, in wrestling especially, it's a badge of honor to have those cauliflower ears. I've seen videos of guys giving themselves cauliflower ears prematurely with weight plates, like using weight plate plate like two on a bar and slamming their ear between them because they want to have that look. People use a door. And I kind of get that, you know, all your boys have the look. That's the hockey thing with missing teeth.

That's what I was going to ask. And, man, are hockey chicks into that? look or like yeah are they like oh look at a look at our rar barbar bar with his poor fucking teeth in his goddamn Russian head you know like and they're stained with beet juice I got to get me some of that yeah that's 100% of thing like you see a guy with cauliflower ears no wonder emmstein cleaned up over there you're missing a bunch of teeth means you're probably tough that that's it does not mean you're tough it means that you're not tough it means that you're not tough it means that you're so weak, it's easy to knock

the teeth out of your head. It means your peripheral vision needs improvement. You show me a hockey player with a big mouthful of pearly whites and I'd fucking cower. I'd be like, whoa, bro, it's not, we don't need to do this. Zach, bring up Brent Burns' face.

Because he's lost so many teeth and he's like 40 years old, almost. I think he's like almost exactly your age, Kyle. And he like has been hit in the face with Puck so many times, but he's never, ever repaired them, that, like, he has those gums that, like, resealed on his mouth.

And he's worth probably $150 million. Oh, brother. This is the best he's looked. This is from years ago. This is, like, I don't think no one on the rights there anymore. Three of his front teeth, like not just the front two main ones, but another one to the left of that. Oh, is that an after on the right or before?

The right is when he's younger. The left is a little more current. Yeah. But he's intimidating because he's like six foot seven. I'm not intimidated by his lack of teeth. I feel like, you don't play hockey. You don't get the, you don't get the vibe.

He's six foot seven. His lack of teeth is not the imposing part of a battle. He's not losing a mouth guard before we've like duped it out. I wouldn't think, is that a, that can't be. I was about to ask if it was a playoff beard. No beard grows that fast.

No, he always has a beard. Yeah. He's great. I love brown. He looks kind of cool. Yeah, Redbird's rules. Who's the guy that only

that hydrated with Coca-Cola? He was kind of fat. He played on a bunch of teams. Oh, Ovechkin has a special water bottle full of Coca-Cola that only he drinks on the bench. I didn't know that.

But it's not him. Is he like cocker or coolly or he was a brewing for a while? I thought he was known to be funny. Dude, YouTube, my algorithm is feeding me video after video of this guy. and telling me how funny he is and he's never fucking funny not once he's the most unfunny fuck ever they're like retelling stories of him like i guess the coach implemented this body fat thing

and they wanted to measure his body fat he's like tell that fucking coach to measure his own body fat that was it like that he just drink coke and score goals i wish i remembered his name i need to figure his name back to the the question at hand but what hobbies do you think are lame that other people are into and you just don't get it because w w wb would probably be my number one i have two one is a cat so one's gambling i just feel like it's not cool to gamble all the time all the time because i think most people are losing money and most of the people who don't lose money only think that because their accounting is inaccurate i think almost everybody loses money if they bet a lot and some are honest about it and say it's an expense but i enjoy

and some are just not honest about it. It depends what you're doing. There are some games that are games of skill, at least to some point. If you're playing one of those like soccer games, like that's bizarre to me. That's a sickness to me. Like the idea, if you're picking,

if you're doing sports betting, maybe you're such a fan that you have some insight. You know, I could understand that. Like if you, there's no reason that you, you can watch the same games that the analysts watch. because you're not a fucking like a supposed expert doesn't mean you can't see something and get it and make a smart bet that's a lot of most passionate fans are losing money and i agree almost

everyone on the wheel wheels wheels the thing like if you take a game like uh i don't know roulette bachrout whatever like it's in the house's favor and the more times you gamble the more of a mathematical certainty it is that you'll lose which is why i suggest taking out a mortgage and gambling at all in Bacher out once. I think what you would just do, you would do roulette and you would just keep doubling your bet, right? You know, and there's no way it's going to be black 30 times in a row. No way.

I understand statistics, but still, they have that, when you go to the roulette, will they have like a... What percent do you understand statistics? I understand that because of... It's not a hundred. It's a complicated guy. Taylor, I got a D in one of the... my stash course.

I understand every time the I understand that the previous spins have nothing to do with the future spins and it's just it's equally likely that it'll be black this time as it was last time and the fact that it was black last time and the time before and 20 times before doesn't impact

the odds that it will be black this time. I get all that and yet if you look up there at the record because they show like what this, the last 50 numbers that have come up on the rule at will I've never seen it be 50 fucking blacks in a row. You know what I mean? Like it's going to be red. So, bet you're not

50, but I wonder how quickly you're doubling runs out of room. Depends how money you bring. Well, it depends on the table limit too. Oh, well, I guess so. I don't know what the table limits would be. I don't know, but I bet if you double every bet, you bump into it

pretty quickly. Yeah, like four or five bets in, you're doing 16 or 32,000 or something like that, even if you started a couple hundred bucks. Yeah, but this, then like, God, you really got to dig your heels in. Once you're betting 16,000 that it's red and it's still not red. You're like, it's definitely read this next time.

32,000. Like, you'd have to keep going. Right, right. Just for the opportunity to break even. This is a great plan. You're breaking even you're doubling your money when it hits. You're doubling the bet every time you lose. But you double the debt, right?

You just. Only you lose. Yeah. But that's the idea. You just lost $16,000 to them. So this time you've, you've, bet $32,000. Am I wrong?

Maybe I'm wrong. I thought that when you finally hit, you would just get your money back. If you double every time, then you're going to make a marginal amount over the losses, correct? But you've also lost the money up to that, right? Like if you've lost $16,000, presumably you've lost $8,000 and $4,000 prior to that. You're not just in debt the 16, your most recent one. You're in debt all the ones that got you there. So when you finally hit, you just break even.

again. Why wouldn't every like really rich multi-millionaire just do exactly? You're going to have to keep going. You're going to have to keep going until you win-win. You need to win twice in a row. Okay. Well, if this were possible, people would, anyone really rich people would do it a lot, right? Taylor, there's, I've been trying to tell you about my audio book. Five simple secrets to win at roulette, okay? Keep doubling your bet is all five of the secrets. I'm like, I'm like texting Woody on the. aside. I'm like, I know Kyle's our friend and we got to support him, but this just doesn't make any

fucking sense. Right. I think you should take gambling advice, like mathematics advice from a homeschool to high school. Do you notice? He's losing his ass. He didn't even have this podcasting jacket on last week. He's losing his shirt. So that's one hobby. I don't think gambling is that

cool. And I recognize how it makes things more fun. And if you keep a lid on it, fine, but it's an expense. It's not a moneymaker that some people make it out to be. The other, and this is one I'm more guilty of than the gambling, collection, collecting things. Like, I have a knife collection. I've got a couple things here and there, but just owning things is kind of a weird hobby. Like, I think a hobby should be doing things. The audio files, I think most audio files, people who are really into like super high end speakers and headphones and whatever, it's more of a pride of ownership thing.

They like the way they clamp onto their head or they like the, like, are you really listening to it so much or are you just really like having something high quality? Yeah. I guess usually about assembling a big pile of, of, that would be valuable stuff that you hope gets more expensive. Like Funko pops? Oh, don't say that. I was thinking of like vinyl records.

Collecting something gay and lame is, would be the worst. worst of the hobbies. But I see where you're coming from, Woody, that like what you said, kind of like watching professional wrestling or whatever, I don't think watching something constitutes a hobby. Like, I like watching hockey, but that's not really a hobby.

I'm not doing it. But you're not an NHL hobbyist. If you were, you would have tons of memorabilia. You'd have a hockey room. You would have, like, I know we had this substitute teacher in middle school or high school that we thought was the biggest loser ever. And he wore a t-shirt tucked in with a belt.

And it was a wrestling t-shirt tucked into like blue-gene jeans with a belt. Lots of cool people do that. Yeah, lots of child pedophiles. Well, I'm talking my shirt. No, he brought his like WWF championship belt that he had bought. And it was like the real one. It wasn't some knockoff or something. Like you can buy the replica that's like exactly what they wear.

And it was thousands of dollars. and it was signed by like Brett Hart or some shit and he he presented that to us and we must have been 12 year old boys in a gym class and we were all just like fagg it was the I just that's what a WWE hobbyist is to me

they have the action figures they have the memorabilia they might even have the old WrestleMania VHSs and shit like that like I couldn't get into it like that especially now knowing what a bunch of like creeps that that that were they were populating that that whole scene like most of them turned out to be into underage boys or raping women or prostituting people or black yeah the whole w w e thing like you

should watch that mr mcmand documentary they did on netflix where the first half of it he's working with the documentary crew because he thinks it's like a piece about how great he is and then it comes out all the sexual allegations. So they switch gears on him and they keep all the footage that he gave them of him talking to them about, oh, we used to get a little grabby, I guess. And it's like, and then you juxtapose that with like, he raped me.

The only like really funny wrestling clip I always like to see is when it's Vince walking like swinging his arms to the side, like a loon out there. That guy went for it. He went for it. He played the character. Him and his whole family. His whole family were involved.

Like his wife, his daughter, his son-in-law, like everybody's part of the business. His son. I don't think collecting shit is lame unless the thing you're collecting is like objective trash. Like plastic funkopopop stuff. Like if you, I don't really get professional wrestling. Not for me.

None of my friends were into it. I wasn't into it. I don't know the history and the lore. But if you're like really into collecting stuff, and it's actually signed by fucking Hulk Hogan or whoever, then that's actually a real thing that you have. Whereas if you're collecting Funkopops and you just have like a piece of plastic shit

that looks a little bit like Spider-Man. It's the Princess Diana Funkopopop. Come on. It's classy. I remember thinking that like those beanie babies that we got at McDonald's were going to be huge eventually in the late 90s. I don't think any of those ever made money. our McDonald's

I remember even then though the Princess Diana ones were big they're 50 cents to $5 now I'm looking at right it did not hold up yeah it did not hold it up hold up at all my sister had like this huge like tote like a plastic tote

full of them she had so many beanie baby she collected them for years she was like the perfect age to be like a little kid she didn't like Barbie she loved beanie babies and she had so got she had all the Dalmatians too all those McDonald's 100 1 Dalmatians. Oh my fucking God.

How many happy meals did we go through to get all them sons of bitches? Like just a huge tote full of them fuckers. They're worth nothing. I didn't know what a Funko Pop was. I had to look it up. I kind of like them. There was an Eleanorian Malania Funko Bo? There's one for everything.

But there's no differentiation. That's how it is. And predatory that company is. They have partnered with everything. There's a for Funko Pop. There's a fucking Skeletor Funko Pop. I guarantee You can't think of a product, a media, an IP that isn't a goddamn funkopopop. But the funco pops themselves, all of them look exactly the same.

It's not even like collecting figurines. They look like nothing. It's the same style, which makes them incredibly cheap to manufacture, I'm sure, because they just alter them just a little bit to make them. There's a whole Game of Thrones. I've seen the John Snow one and stuff like that. I've never been into collecting stuff like that either that doesn't make any sense to me

No I haven't either Collecting guns is fun Like you can get carried away with it Those are functional like that Each one of those is a functional tool And they hold their value They truly do Like like I've never heard of a gun like

The way Carr loses its value Like guns are still looking at Funko Pops on Amazon And like half tuned out because I found it And Kyle's like they hold their value And I'm like get the fuck out of here this money's gone. I am not going to resell my fungal pops. No.

No, definitely not. This is, this is worse than crypto when it comes. But now I realize you were talking about guns, and I agree. I haven't been into guns as long as you. For me, it's been like 15 years.

And they've just nothing but gone up. Yeah. Yeah. And it's interesting that they keep going up in value, despite more and more being made every year. Like every year is a bigger gun sales year than the last. Like it seems, it used to be Democratic presidents were the ones that would spur gun sales,

but goddamn if Trump can't spur some gun sales, I promise you, they've tapped a brand new market with liberals. There are plenty of cat boys and queers and colored people everywhere who are like, they're like that meme of the cat reading the newspaper in the morning. I think I need a gun. Yeah, yeah. You get more guns out there, brother. Oh, absolutely.

We already have like 46% of the total global supply of civilian-owned guns. I say we need to pump those numbers up. I say those are rookie numbers. We should have over 50% of the global supply of civilian and help weapons. I love how much we mug every other country with the gun shit. It feels good. I wonder who's like it. I bet it's a shitty place.

I bet if it were, if it's legal per capita. Maybe, um, because it might be like it would be, like if we're doing total guns in civilian hands, not a per capita thing, not a percentage thing or anything like that. It's total guns in civilian hands within a country. I'm going to say, it's got to be a big country, first of all. I'm going to say Russia. I don't know anything about Russian gun laws, but I know they've got like tons of people in the wilderness who you would think they'd all have hunting weapons and such.

And there's so many Russians. and it's such a big country, and I don't think the Chinese can have guns nor the Indians. I think I feel like you're 100% on the money. I'd have to guess the same way. Like there's no way it's China. Do you want some answers? Oh, yeah.

Yeah. So total number of guns. In civilian hands. Civilian hands, yeah. In civilian hands, yeah. These are civilian firearms we're talking about. U.S. number one at 393 million guns. Second place, India.

It's 71 million. million guns. World's largest democracy, by the way. Third place, China, then Germany, then Yemen, at 49, 25, and 17 million. Germany. Now, per capita, the number that I thought would be interesting. U.S., number one. Second, Yemen, Switzerland, Finland, Finland, Serbia. I knew Switzerland would be up there. I thought there'd be some African country where like everybody's got an AK or something. African countries don't keep stats. They can't even read. No, they're in so much turmoil.

They're not keeping fucking stats. That's that's pretty cool. I'm glad that we've got so goddamn many. Me too. Where the hell's Yemen? Is Saudi Arabia? That's south of Saudi Arabia. Yemen is next to...

No, it's it. I guess it would technically be Asia, right? Because it's right next to Oman. Oh, yeah, it'd be Asia. Yeah, you're right in just next to Oman. When I look at Saudi Arabia, I give it credit for Yemen and Oman, like emotionally.

it looks like yeah that's Saudi Arabia and then I'm like wait a second Saudi Arabia's kind of fucking small like a third of it's not even Saudi Arabia I've been overestimating them yeah if there was ever a country that needed to clean up the border just

aesthetically it's probably Saudi Arabia because those two countries at the bottom they really exactly put up a picture of the Saudi Arabian principle or I'm sorry peninsula seems misnamed to me should be the Yemeni Peninsula.

Right. The S-Y-O peninsula or something. I don't know. They really messed that up. Saudi Arabia needs to do some conquering. They really did. Well, Saudi Arabia doesn't really have an army, right? If you were in the market for a new...

Oh, yeah. I mean, Jesus. Don't you emotionally give it credit for Yemen and Oman? I kind of do. The UAE, I feel like they're kind of their own thing. I had no idea. Bahrain was that. Oh, my Lord. I thought it was a real country. Look at how teeny tiny that is. It's like a hundredth of Qatar and Qatar is teeny. I'm always surprised by just how small Israel is.

I'm always surprised by how little geography I actually know. Yeah, but you have to forget, you forget that Israel has. Israel has a colony with 50 states. Between Canada and Mexico, they're bidding. Look at this shotgun. This is a new, I think it just came out of a shot show this year.

It's Axor Arms. It's foldable. So the whole shotgun folds in half. They've got a bunch of models. Oh, right behind the action, like behind the trigger. That's kind of neat, but the website doesn't fold it.

It should fold when I mouse over it. It really should. Let's see FS Pro. Oh, wait, wait. If you click to the, if you click into one of them and then go to the next picture. Oh, it's like a over under break down. Yeah. Look at the magazine fed one. That looks fun. This doesn't even look that convenient to break down.

It would go in like a really tiny bag. A suitcase or something, yeah. It doesn't fold like I expected. I thought it was going to fold kind of over itself and then stay with a similar silhouette, but no, it's just a big breakdown mechanism. That looks fun to me. That does look cool. Is this a good company for shotguns, or is this just a non-company before?

That's just like the new, that came across my feed, and I don't even like subscribe to gun stuff, so I think it made a bit of a splash. Anytime something's foldable or does a new nifty thing, I'm interested. You hated that foldable gun you used in the videos back in the day. that thing that kind of felt it felt folded I guess back on itself oh that thing's okay it's a Caltech

um one of them was like a nine million times before you took a tree down what's that oh the you mean those shotguns that were breaking or whatever yes yeah oh that was like a UTAS 12 or something like that these really

really shitty plastic pump shotguns I think they had maybe two barrels or at least two chambers full of shells. The idea was like, it was during the time where the KSG had come out and everybody was trying to do a really high capacity shotgun or add more barrels, add more tubes or whatever. And yeah, I think they sent four or maybe five. They paid me X amount of dollars and five shotguns.

And I needed all five to get through the video. By the end of the video, I had one working shotgun left and the rest were they were broken in the kind of way that doesn't get repaired. Like when you would shuck them back and forth, There was like ball bearings and springs and broken plastic inside the chamber jumping around in there. Like piece of shit. I have an FPS roster question that just popped into my head. So for me, there was this time period.

I had like three videos in one week that changed the trajectory of my channel. One was Shucks You, right? That thing was this big hit, the song I wrote, but someone else sang. And then Black Ops dropped. And in the same week, I was like one of the first guys to get a chopper gunner on Nooktown. And I did a class guide. And those three videos all got like, you know, a million views-ish. And made my channel sort of like it just, I was doing well and then I started doing super well.

Is there a video or two or like a short little span that you think turned FPS Russia from something small to something big? Yeah. It was right around the AA12 video. That's part of it. But there was a video that went up right before that one. Like, things were already accelerating. They were going from like 5 million views to 7.5 to 10, like in the course of like one week to the next. But before the A812 video, I uploaded a video where I like break into a crack house and there's blow up sex dummies and there's fake cocaine.

And I'm using like a Benelli M4 shotgun and cracking a lot of jokes. That one was on pace to do like 12 million views. the week before the AA 12. So it was already like a time where like the algorithm was feeding things well and the videos were like working to like make the next video bigger. It was clearly accelerating. But probably the A812 and then like all the videos after that like the next two or three were good videos. You know, they were interesting videos. So those were the channel was growing like crazy fast like thousand subscribers an hour or something like that.

Maybe more than that. You could watch the subscriber numbers going up at an incredibly rapid pace, hundreds and hundreds of an hour. I think some of the World of Tanks stuff was really big. I think maybe the videos only got 8 or 12 million views, but the partnership with World of Tanks was like a different audience that was getting exposed to. Anytime that would happen, anytime a new group of people would get exposed to what I was doing for the first time, that would be like this clear, like, deluge of subscribers and views.

You could see from the view counter website and the subscriber counter website just from that when like my video had been would get featured on CNN or on G4 or whatever it got on some news network or something for some nonsense. It's like, oh, you can see this flood of people that came in right here. Definitely the A812 was probably the biggest one. The COD commercial brought a bunch of people. There was a big surge then. The AA12 had this like slow-mo section where you were. demonstrating how little recoil there was. Yeah.

And something about that, like the audio in that little spot. Like, I don't change your life. Yeah. Like, it was huge. Yeah, it was cool to meet that guy. I drove all the way up to his place. I'm inventing this, but I think you look sideways, like while it was shooting. Oh, yeah, yeah.

You were like, like, it's a gift. Like, look what I'm doing. Like, it was going to be. I mean, we spent the whole day before that, like playing with the gun, basically. And we didn't have, we just, we were in this guy's yard, like just in this guy's yard in Tennessee. So I couldn't blow up cars. And so I was like, all right, we got soda bottles. Do you have an old door frame?

Like, like, you can see, there's just no recoil. It's really neat shotgun. Yeah, that's wild because I'm talking to the audience. Shotguns have a lot of recoil. I'm like, I'm a grown man. And if I shoot shotgun. for a bit like afternoon or something, I'll get a bruise on my shoulder.

So for it to just have no recoil like that is insanity. Yeah, it was part of that because of how much weight was in that big cylinder magazine? No. It's because of the open bolt firing mechanism and the unique way that the A812 handles recoil and cycles itself. normally yeah that would come into play a lot of heavier gun recoils less but you can see there it's it's not recoiling it looks like it's chipping back and then i'm pulling it forward but it's the opposite it's pulling forward and i'm correcting back when you shoot it it recoils forward not back

hmm it pulls away from you as you're shooting because of the way the mechanism's working and those were bird shells like like probably an ounce or an ounce probably an ounce of shot, you know, going like a thousand or 1100 feet per second. So it's a low recoil round anyway. But even when we shot heavier shit, it was still just really,

really light. It just doesn't have any recoil. That guy was really nice. He brought that gun down for that event we did with White Boy and Hex and everybody. We did a whole segment on that show where I think we had remote control drones covered with explosives driving on the ground

and the contestants had to shoot them with AA 12. and explode them and try to reload an A812 in the middle of like doing that. And it's like, this is great. I love that the guy, the guy brought the A812s down for us to shoot the video, like free and everything. Well, that was a nightmare because we had to find. We had to find explosives that are sensitive enough to go off with a shotgun shell. But then we had to go to every Walmart in the area, three different Walmarts and by all

of the turkey shells they have because you need high velocity shotgun shells to even pop the low-velocity explosives that are all over these goddamn drones. And we've already destroyed a bunch of them. There's a props department here, crafting new ones, looking at me, give me this king-god. Because we just shredded some, but they didn't explode. Yeah, I was going to add that. That was where I was going. Did the explosives blow up reliably when you hit them?

Because it seems like they're on the edge. Once I got the turkey shells, those are fast. Turkey shells are often 1,400, 1,500 feet per second. it's often this copper-plated, like, high-performance shot. Like, when you're turkey hunting, you get, like, one shot. So they make really high-end shells that are expensive for that. Does it look like birdshot if you would have opened the cartridge and dump it out?

It's quite a bit bigger. It's close with BBs going really fast. So it's got enough pop to make that low-velocity explosive go off. We put explosives on drones and flew them around long before Ukraine. We had, I was like, how much? in that drone lift and the guy was like, oh, you'd be surprised. And I'm like, no, you're going to be surprised. We're taking these shoeboxes half full of explosives, like the really hot stuff that's dangerous to even mix. When I would mix it, I was always like, Lord, please. Was it the red dot stuff

you're talking about? Yeah, it was like in the red exploding targets or something like that. It was a handcrafted formula. It was not tannerite. It was 100% legal. It was all ATF monitored the production of this stuff and everything, but we didn't even sell it to people. We sold a much toned down version that we marketed and sold. The stuff that I was using the videos was so scary and dangerous. Like if you hit it with a hammer, it would explode. Like if you dropped it, I would dive away.

If I saw you drop a bag of it and I thought I had a moment to like turn my face and dive, I would. It's a match will set it off. Heat will set it off. And none of that's true of tannerite. Tanneride, it has to be a 5, 5, 5, 6. Wait, the heat sets it off? Yes.

You can put a fuse in that shit. It might as well be dynamite. Because I think I have some in my attic. I wouldn't want that in my attic. We got a remedy this, buddy. I would not want to make sure. If it's in little plastic baggies and shit, like 100% legal,

all on and up. It's just a binary compound, but I would not want that just floating around upstairs. It was the scariest thing I ever worked with. C4 is like baby food compared to that shit because C4 is like so stable. It's play though until a detonator goes in it and pops. That shit is more like cowboy T&T. It's more like it like it probably sweats after a time and gives off fucking nitroglycerin in your fucking add it.

I'm thinking how much do I have? We've sold in such small quantities like ounces, you know? Like I set off 30 pounds of it. What is hold on to it though? This is his Bitcoin. It's more than a coffee cup worth. Like it's maybe 16 ounces of it. That's alarming.

I got some. Let me see if I can find the... Is what you made on the same tier of like per weight? power of C4 or like not even. Oh, I wouldn't even know how to like compare like that for real zies. And like the explosive power of it. I knew that it was a great deal more powerful than just ammonium nitrate. Like it seemed like five times more powerful than ammonium nitrate or something.

Like small amounts of it would get a really big pop. I'm looking for a video where I set off 25 pounds of it. it left a crater geez it is cool yeah i i remember the first time i think it was only tannerate but we went to wings of redemption's house and kyle brought some and we shot it in the dark and uh at the time like nothing moved my hair it was pretty short and filled with product but this explosion like rocked my hair i was like what is this it was an odd feeling the percussion wave? Does that what it's called?

A pressure wave, technically. Concussive wave? Is that what it would be? Concussive? Maybe that's it. Yeah, you could definitely feel it move your hair. You can feel it like wiggling your inner. Yeah, it like bumps your chest. Yeah, it's like if you ever been around or like a really good, you know, sound system.

That's what it felt like at Brandon Herrera's event standing in the like close wind of that Barrett 50-Cal. every time they shot it was like I was blown away with how powerful standing to the side of one of those was Was that your first 50 Cal experience? I didn't get to shoot it

but that was the first time I'd ever been near a Barrett and seen it shot ever. I had shot a black powder 50 caliber gun a couple times my buddy had and that was fun and silly but like dude the Barrett was like I was there with Wendigoon and he was like

you want to to close your mouth and like be ready for this and I was like okay and then this guy started shooting and I was like this is unreal I cannot believe the it's been a long time ago I don't remember I think I might have been here when this

video happened I think I think this is one of the guys I went hog hunting with one time but it's been like a decade ago but I think I set up a target for him and this is that target I'm like 85% sure I'm behind the cameraman he's really close to this I've been shooting my bow and it's just been tearing up all the animals. I don't know if it's the power of this Matthew's bow or the power of my broadheads. But anyway, I'm about to shoot this target and see what we can do.

God damn, and Matthew's bow got some power. You didn't look like he could pull a 4,000 weight compound. That's how sensitive that those explosives are. that a bow hit it and it blew everything up and that was probably like a like just like an ounce if not even an ounce like just a tiny amount of bottle caps worth that stuff is real strong my mom's gonna text me and be like you should get that out of the egg mix them up and you know pop a mom get off my ass oh you always on my ass about my I was on my fucking ass

about me with my friends, Mom. Is that a bully and dynamite? It became that, yeah. That was a fun episode. Yeah, it was good. All right, check out our sponsors, BetterHelp, buy some compills.

I've heard your commas disappointing. PKK 791.
