Painkiller Already - PKN 535

Episode Date: November 20, 2024

PKN 535 sup boys. Happy Tuesday. Happy Tuesday. I'm Excited for this upcoming weekend Kyle because actually I don't think I've mentioned it on PKN or PKA Kyle every once in a while Just sends me a nice little little present in the mail Like just something thoughtful and he sent me this like cookery through time Book where it's like recipes from all over the world mostly Europe but it's like this is only get dildos from him what is this dildos from around the world ones that splinter your ass from fucking the Dutch do not have this right with their shoes in their dildos I've been I've been flipping I haven't

made a decision a final decision yet but my girlfriend and I were flipping through it. And there's a ton of delicious looking stuff in there. I'm going to try this, like, or who knows what I'll end up trying. But there's a ton of variations of what we think of as like shepherd's pie, but it's like different mixes and matches. There's also a ton of stuff that you think of as like more primalal meals where it's like simple like this vegetable in this way and then just an enormous slab of meat like smoked or cooked in this way. And so I'm I think I'm going to order one of those Townsend and Sun hats and then cook or do my cookery in that.

I was gonna say the hat too. And I when I found the hat eventually, like we talked about it. And then I was like to say the hat too. And I, when I found the hat eventually, like we talked about it. And then I went, I was like, I'm going to get him that hat. We talked and I dug further. Those are expensive. Like it's like, it would be the most expensive hat I'd ever purchased in my life.

That hat was like $127 or something. It's like a little leather skull cap. For me to get grease on it in my kitchen. Yeah, for you to wear once, take a silly picture and then put it in a drawer What's it? I I found towns in dot us a website. They have a lot of hats. Is it the tri pointed like revolutionary war? Yeah, the tri one that has kind of those rolled up edges very very cool looking. I like those hats They were actually going to sing the laborerer's cap that I've seen him wear.

Because there's the fancy one that looks like you're going to go, I don't know, Revolutionary War and ride your horse to town. But then there's the laborer's cap that's very simple and has, I remember, maybe ear flaps on the side a little bit. The little white one that's got the, yeah. He's got a couple what's what's it's always awkward when the black guy comes out and he's wearing his like time period authentic clothes too got his shackles on and everything that's the

funniest thing that guy could possibly do on that channel is be like hey I'm a purist so I'm gonna need you to hit me is it like that Hey, I'm a purist, so I'm going to need you to hit me. Is it like that top left hand? Is that too much? So I start working on it. It's really like any of these he mixes. I guess I never paid that much attention to how many of these tribes were bought a three digit hat before. I certainly haven't.

I don't look good in hats. Hmm. I only wear hats when my hair is too long. What do they look like? Doll hats? That's it. Yeah. The mint work cap was honestly one of the things I had in my mind. I often see him wearing that one. And it has this like boy in the striped pajamas feel to it that I like a lot. Scroll up a little bit, Zach. That's a happy movie. Stop there on the stocking caps. That like one of him looking wearing that like off to the side ball cap thing. The Scottish Bobby thing. The machine knit Voyagers. Voyager is. Oh, oh okay. Yeah, the machine knit

Voyager cap. All the videos where he has one of those on, impeccable vibes. If I was gonna wear one for warmth though, I mean, it's pretty obvious you want that big beaver hat, right? Look at that thing. My God. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, if you're going for warmth, but I don't know, he's got a lot of swag, a lot of style. Well.

I really like it. Yeah. I hope you enjoy the cookbook. Big shout out to Kyle for the book. I'm going to try something this weekend. I look forward to seeing your 17th century meal. Oh, it's going to be good. I will eventually remember to take a picture of food before I start eating it after I finished.

Every time I smoke something really big, I have in my head, I'm like, I'm going to take it. Now that's a quality hat. I could rock that. That is good. That's for gardening. Probably. I think it's another one of those ladies hats. You like what it might be. Maybe that's pretty girl. I mean, I like the girl more than that. I guess I'm just teasing. Yeah. You want to have her frolicking around in your kitchen, barefoot cooking some hard tack. That's only a tough times. Yeah. Hard tack in Pemmican isn't for taste. It's for touch. We're not going on a journey here. Oh, I saw someone overlay

Frodo's journey onto the United States map. Have you seen that graphic? No, I have not. Where did they have him start? Oh, it helps so much to understand how far they traveled. He went from like Florida, mid Florida to like Missouri and not in a straight line. Pull that up, Zach. It was a long ass journey. It's this zigzag journey. I think they had him going from like mid Florida to like around Missouri or somewhere up in that area, like like up in the Midwest. I found it. Yeah, that was about right. It's kind of like to the where the more billbo's journey is through Missouri to just That was about right. It's kind of like to the, where the moments of the Garden of Eden is.

Through Missouri to just touching Kansas. Oh yeah, and Bilbo's too. I found it. You'll see it in a second. Yeah. Let's see. Excellent. Excellent find, Woody.

Ooh, man. Frodo and Sam's trip just mogging Bilbo's. And alone, right? Like so much of it alone. I wish that it was colored so I saw when they departed from the group, from Aragorn and the rest of the river. Cause yeah, that's cool. Yeah. They really took the circuitous route there.

Yeah. I see a shortcut they missed out on at the right. Fucking right through. As a matter of fact, they kind of zigzag that whole way. They're not, I mean, I'd have hit the Mississippi went straight on up North. You know what I mean? Yeah. What were they thinking? Are they stupid? Morons. So that where would where would this have all of us living? Oh well I believe Mordor is in the bottom right so I'm probably near Osgiliath or something like

that. You're in the brown lands. Fun. Sea of, does that say Rohan. What is that word name? That is what they call it. Outer Banks. Yeah, Rohan. That's where, no, Rohan would be west of Kyle. You would be in Merkwood or a little bit outside of Merkwood. That's an Elfie place. So what's the east coast of North Carolina? Can you read those words? The Sea of Ronin or Rinin? Rinin? Yeah, that's what it looks like. Okay.

Because there's not supposed to be a sea there in this map. They're just overlaying it. Right. This is like the kind of like retarded content that I'll like scroll past and spend 10 minutes thinking about like little daydreaming fantasies. Like that I love. I don't think that it's fair to call that maladaptive daydreaming. That's just having a good time. They're, they're just, they, they try and say that they're like,

you shouldn't be distracted constantly. You shouldn't be unable to pay attention in school. You shouldn't always be thinking about like, this is like before, this is like pre-Columbine. I'd be thinking like how could I turn this school into a fortress? Like how could I stay safe if we were attacked? When in reality I was eight I would have got shit rocked. I try to explain like my inability to focus on a task that someone else wants me to focus on like you know math or something and it's hard to even put

into words. I would sit down in a trig or something and I would I can remember being like, all right, new week, new week, new me, new week. You know, this is a Monday. And it's a pretty, pretty, pretty easy pattern to recognize Monday. We were introduced to the new thing Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. We work on it. Friday. We test on it starts all over again. The next week, every week he had a new chance to just try it math. And I'm like, I'm going to try that fucking board.

And I swear to God, it would be like in the movies where like someone goes, Hey Kyle, and you look to your left and the bell rings. Someone goes hey Kyle and you look to your left and the bell rings. Yeah Like I would wake up from a from a waking dream where where I was just Daydreaming deeply and like like like I was off somewhere and I'd be like, huh I'll be drooling a little maybe and I'd be like not this week, huh? All right Maybe social studies will maybe this is no this is is social studies week. That's what this is. Let's head over there and pay attention. Well, we're not going to solve this every class on one day. You know, we're going to slow beat out our effort.

Like, if there's something that someone wants me to pay attention to and learn and I don't want to, like, it doesn't genuinely interest me. It doesn't matter if I want to or not. Like, I can't, I can't pay attention to it. I needed them to lean heavier into real life applications of math earlier in education, because for some reason, they just didn't like, they would rarely give examples of like, like algebra and seventh grade or whatever that were anything but you know, exponents and whatever and

introducing that. Whereas like, I would have made it word problems, it would have been more engaging and been like, Oh, okay, so like, this is a spelled out way I could conceivably use this in my life. But there was none of that. It would be like learning Spanish, but never ever like having a sentence. Like just doing vocabulary for the fuck of it.

And I never knew what those formulas were for, how they could be applied. And then again, unless you're an engineer, I would imagine. I never required that though. Like a lot of people are like, how is this going? No, no, I was saying required them to put it into things that would help me.

It's like, why do I need to know this math? That's not even my problem. I just know that I need to know it to please my teachers and my betters. And that's enough for me. Like, I don't care. I just have that I need to know it to please my teachers and my betters. And that's enough for me. Like I don't care. I just have to buckle down. And obviously I did terrible at that at high school, but I was sort of consequence driven later on. That was what the,

the anxiety of being a failure was my reason for getting shit done. It makes sense. That is a driving force for all of it. Yeah. It just made no sense. It seemed like we were just wasting time digging around in the dirt whenever we were learning semi advanced mathematics, because even then I was I couldn't pay attention to it for one thing. But also I was like, when when will this matter? And what job does it matter is what I'd love to know.

I wish that that teacher had said now for all of you guys who might be trapped in space, not have your space computer it matter is what I'd love to know. I wish that that teacher had said, now for all of you guys who might be trapped in space, not have your space computer and have to have to manually reenter, you'll need this formula. Because that's like when you need it. It's that kind of math that we're learning for some reason, instead of how to balance it. Well, at the time, how to balance a checkbook. Now everything just- We didn't learn how to balance the checkbook until like 11th grade and it was like it wasn't even a real lesson it was like spoken about like what we're doing next could

be applicable to balancing a checkbook and it's like i didn't know what to do that i didn't know what it meant for years it turns out it just means knowing how much money you have in the account like subtracting when you write checks is that genuinely what it's about it's credit yeah it's basically so they send you a statement and then you Apply the things you knew about and they didn't and the things they know about and you didn't like interest earned and make sure That you're on the same page Ah, I see. I see but it just seemed like you'd have to be so close to broke to need to balance a checkbook Well, it didn't matter too much in theory. You're catching the bank's mistakes

Uh in practice, I don't know anyone that still balances a checkbook. They just pretty rare that the bank messes up. Yeah, an efficient use of time. Nowaday. I know like my, like my grandpa will still do that. Oh, yeah. But I think that's just more like, like he still has online banking to also play Sudoku. It's not the point He's not a Sudoku guy. He's a solitaire guy. I bought this is like two Two Christmases ago. My grandma was like Because I he always wants like a Patagonia vest or like a pullover or something. She was like Taylor He's gonna tell you to get him a vest He's got more vests and he knows what to do with. He just doesn't know what else to say.

And so don't get him no vest. You're going to get him an iPad. Don't tell him I told you, but his current one that he uses for solitators, all broken, doesn't work. He gets tired of it and then just goes to bed. And so we're going to, and so I like bought him, like I had in my cart, like the nicest iPad, like that I could buy at the time, which was expensive. It was like way more than I thought iPads were. It was like $800. And then I like really thought

it through. And I was like, what have I ever seen him do on this iPad? Solitaire. And if like his email is too small to read on his phone, he'll just go to like a desktop in the other room and do it. Like, okay, so I'm buying him a solitaire machine. And so then I like kicked that out of my cart, found the most like high quality refurbished one for like $170. Still kicking today because it turns out like it takes like the iPad he was using was like gen one, like from 12, 13 years ago. Like that's how long it takes for that to break just from the little games. I don't know. I haven't like iPad buying PTSD. I can make an iPad even more expensive. Here's my trick.

Your daughter says she needs an iPad for college. So you buy her $500 iPad and then she says, you know, I really need the $800 iPad. Bingo. Now you've actually got a 500 one for your son. You got yourself a $1,300 iPad. Where you kind of like, like smile and like, you know, that's the kind of thing you, you lead with, you know, Dude, it's like, after having been, you know,

like a father for so long, when there's problems that I don't have to solve, it is a joy, it is a relief, it is a weight off my back. She buys all her own shit now. She's completely self-supporting. I mean, she's on my Netflix account and stuff, but like, she primarily pays for all her own stuff. And I don't know if she's just, she's an adult and it's

beautiful. I can see how that would be fun. Because also, like when I became an adult, like it happened during college, of course, where it's like, all right, how do I, I really want to go do this. And it's like, Hmm, I don't really have a lot of money. Maybe I shouldn't do that. Maybe I should, you know, get a job first. Oh yeah. No, through college, that was all me. Like, yeah, we want to like, uh, take a car to Carowinds. I'll be driving everyone. And it's just like, shit, so I'm out like $300 so you could go to you and all your friends can do this.

I remember so many instances in college where like I had friends who were the most spendthrift, foolish spenders imaginable. And it was like a living warning all the time where like a friend I had one friend in particular who was on like a $25 a week allowance from his parents because they're like you don't need any more money than that You already have all the food from the the mess hall that you know You get for being in the dorms and so they were like what else do you need you get internet through your dorm? You go to class and you get just walking around. Yeah. Everything else is paid like $25 of walking around cash. And he would like spend that $25 on like ordering pizza on like Monday when he got it on Sunday. And then the rest of the week he'd be like, Taylor, can you smoke me out? And it's like, bitch, like, no,

means like he wants to come to my house and smoke my weed and not pay for it. I literally thought I was like, I guess he wants Taylor to get high and exhale on him. I'm like, I'm on this straw. Shotgun with him. I've done that with dude. I've been low on weed before like where like like we didn't we didn't we couldn't get anymore we know where to get it and that's exactly how me and my girlfriend would smoke like I'll hit it and I'll blow it into your mouth and we get twice the weed this is perfect foolproof and it kind of works I guess. Yeah I had one of my friends like we were I think

one of our drug dealer like our main drug dealer may have just like gotten arrested or something. And so like we texted him, the guy's name was Kush, the same guy from other stories. And he was totally out of weed, couldn't get it to us, wasn't responding. We were like, this guy probably got picked up for selling some of the harder drugs he also sells, just not to us, we only bought weed from him. And I had this zong, which is like a zigzaggy bong

to create more space in there so you can get more smoke as if the smoke is like struggling for space in a glass container. All it did was make it more likely to tip over and break. And like one of my friends, we were like all trying to get high on like some Sunday night or something. And we're like, what do we even have? We'd like done that thing where you like use a credit card in the bottom of a grinder and you're like, trying to get little bits. The Keef catch is already cleaned out. And then there's one there. You look at the song and it's like, I only was doing like the cursory cleaning to keep like the,

the bullshit out of the bottom of it. So it's not visibly dirty, but there's still that caked on black tar resin from all the weed that's been smoked through it. And so we were like trying to get in there and get it out. And one of my friends, Jake, was like, I just break it. Can we just break it? We just break it and get it out. And I was like, yeah, like, I guess if you wrap it in a towel and break it, we can then pick it out from the bits of glass. How much is this all worth? It was cheap. It was probably like $40. And at that point, I'd had it for years.

Oh, that weed. That goo in there is invaluable. That goo in there was not. I'd had it at this point, I'd had it for years. Goo worth like $20? The goo is definitely worth... You can't put a price on what... You can't put a price on that goo because you need it. You literally can. He broke it open and then like was a bit too rambunctious with how hard he broke it. We're in my kitchen.

It's like midnight on a Sunday. Like we're like fairly high from the remnant of the flower we had. And then he like lifts the towel up. One, first of all, one of my towels ruined. I wasn't flush with towels. And then like he starts like picking out the res from little bits of glass and like trying and struggling. And then he starts picking out the res from little bits of glass and trying and struggling. And Kyle knows this struggle.

It's the stickiest thing on earth. If you got a piece the size of your pinky nail, Woody, on the back of your hand, you would have a stain on the back of your hand for the next 10 days. It would smear, if you tried to get it with your finger, it would just smear onto you and be like,

it's like wet pine tar. I have a technique. You cannot remove it. Once it and like with your finger, it would just smear onto you and be like, it's like wet pine tar. I have a technique. Once you're done with your story, I have the technique that you needed. Oh yeah, and so we got all the res out, loaded up. I had like a shotgun thing, which is just a glass tube that you put your hand over one side and then you hit it. And then you go, take the hand off.

And it's like a bong amount of smoke with no cooling, no filtering, just harsh. And smoking res is the harshest of harsh. It tastes despicable, but it's so dense with THC, it gets you fucked up. And if it's all you have, we were smoking weed a ton at the time. And so we did that.

And I remember like the next morning, we get high, watch some trailer park boys, my friends leave. And like the next morning, I'm like walking into my kitchen to get a water. And I see just this now stained through with brown liquid remnants of that towel on my kitchen, my shitty kitchen table and thinking like, seeing this makes me feel like what we did is worse than like a weed drug thing. Like it feels like we were desperate for drugs and we started breaking things. And I was thinking, I'm like, damn, that is what we did. Like we were so desperate to get fucked up. We started breaking stuff in my apartment.

I would run out of concentrate, my wax or whatever, my shatter. And I had this beaker bong I had bought from like a fancy place in Atlanta there's like a 500 beaker bong it's not a big bong but it's really intricate and like pretty and it would get that resin stuck inside there'd be these black tarry stains on the inside where as I like smoked the concentrate instead of vaporizing turning into a vapor that would then go through the water and into my lungs, it just sort of melted a little and ran down into the bong. So that stuff is in there and I'm out.

And I'm looking at that stuff in there. I filled it up with alcohol and shook it and shook it and shook it. And then I'm able, the alcohol will make it detach from the glass wall and you can pour it out onto like a glass plate. And then you're like a Gold Rush era panner, you're panning for goo.

So you sort of like move the plate, like swish it around so the water leaves, but that goo will eventually touch a dry spot on the plate and stick. And now you got it. So you're just like evaporating the alcohol in the air? You evaporate all the alcohol evaporates off and you're left with the goo stuck to the plate that you can then take a razor blade

and scrape up into like a goo puddle. And then I was- And the plate ruins by the way. There'd be a little bit of water like trapped in the goo. So when I would hit it, I would hit it through a nail. I'd heat the nail up, you know, like for the concentrate and I would get a bunch of that goo

and I'd stick it down in there and it would crackle and pop because there was water in it. And the water is like pop pop pop pop pop and it would, you could instantly tell the smoke that was being created like inside the bong was a dark angry smoke. It was like the smoke that was coming out of the, uh, the, the, the machine monster and Fern gully. It was a mean smoke, a crude smoke, but it would get you so high that you'd like break into a full body sweat, like a, like a menopausal woman. So you'd be so excited to be high again,

that you'd take like a size hit that you'd usually take in. Cause at the time we had no concentrates, like we just smoked flour. And so you take a big hit of rez not realizing it's like four times as potent as the flour you used to. And then you're like, Oh no, I went from like being worried we weren't going to get high to now having to like sit here, my whole body vibrating, thinking like, all right, you'll be down to the comfortable time soon. And then in your head, you're like, why, why have you done this? Why have you done this to yourself? You fool. Yeah. A lot of lessons to be learned. Yeah. Good times.

Yeah. The zong, the cheapest one. I was often tempted to buy one of those world war II gas masks that has a bowl on it. But it just seemed like such a terrible idea. Dude, that was in every fucking head shop and all of them were like the lowest quality mask. Guaranteed, if you have any facial hair, it's not going to form a seal on your face. And also the bong is like that acrylic bullshit that makes everything taste weird because like the the water is percolating and it's in this thick gross plastic everything's

committed to the cause you do hitler mustache it just like you get high that would be so well that is why right it was like gas mask compatibility i think is why he rocked that guy this is this is circumstance that i did like why can't you change the rest? Really like getting on. Don't bully me. I saw it is mine facial hair and I will wear it. I want a huge UFC fight.

Neither you showed up, but but. I bet I forgot about it after the Jake Paul fight. Oh, oh, my goodness. I watched the Jake Paul fight. It was a good time. There were several good fights. Donald Trump showed up with the full cabinet. Basically he has a walkout at this point to American bad American

bad-ass starts playing and I'll here comes Donald Trump and he's and it's him and Dana white and behind him are Elon Musk, Vivek Ramashwani, RFK, Tulsi Gabbard, Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, and his son, and more people. Like in this posse that he's assembled and clearly just brought to Madison Square Garden, you could tell they were

in a meeting. They were talking about the future of the country and he was like, well, gotta head over to Madison Square Garden to watch the fights. Who wants to come? And everybody was like, me, me, me. And sure enough, they're all there. They've got seats at the fight and Trump and Kid Rock, who was also there, of course, and Elon, and Elon sit ringside. They sit right there. That's John Jones coming down to shake hands with Trump. You see Vivek and Jelly Roll in the background. Jelly Roll was there on his own.

He wasn't part of the posse. He wasn't part of the posse. Yeah, I saw the clip. John Jones is very excited to see Trump. Oh, he did the Trump dance. So John Jones wins and he does the Trump dance and points at Trump and like gives him The thumbs up it was it was pretty cool. Honestly, I I thought it was so interesting

I watched two live streams one was the fight And one was this angle that you're looking at right there That was just on Trump because I wanted to see if Trump actually watches the fights or if he cares and he watched the fights The whole time Dana White did not watch any of the fights Really? What does he do? He's on his phone and he's and he watched the fights the whole time. Dana White did not watch any of the fights. Really? What does he do? He's on his phone and he's and he's like talking to people. He's on the whole thing. He's working. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

I definitely like owning the UFC, trying to watch your own fighters and being like, fuck, I got to respond to these emails. Dana White was the highest paid person in that room that night. You know, like like John Jones might have beaten Steve A, but I bet Dana White still takes a bigger cut than he does in the end. Yeah, dude, that kick looked so painful. Lacerated two organs.

What were, it was like pancreas and kidneys were lacerated and broken rib from that. So see, crazy. Go to the hospital. Yeah. Oh yeah. yeah yeah that's brutal incredible kick super powerful I often hear people say that's the most powerful strike in all martial arts Joe Rogan's famous for having a super powerful spinning back kick like that is that what it was a spinning back kick yeah

yeah that's the hardest kick you could see his ribs and stuff. It's the hardest a human can strike. I think Yeah, well it looks like it yeah, yeah, that was fucking fun. I enjoyed the fights I did have to mute some of the boys in the day and her in our discord They one of those discussions came up that I just couldn't be part of again It's like what about prime would he on TRT? Could he beat up? He could he beat Mike Tyson and I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, no, no, there's no version of me ever. That why do you think this? They're like, I don't know. He trained this and that. What do you do?

It's never. 0% of the time. Am I like, put me in there coach. I want Jake Paul. No, never ever. Mike, they wouldn't take Mike. Um, which it happened on the night before. And I was like, guys, if I'm in that ring, I place on lockdown. We could just not talk about any more of this. Yeah, it's

Really they don't even bandy about the idea that Kyle and I wouldn't be immediately killed We don't have the the combat experience. We don't have the acumen. He's a trained killer I don't have Mike Tyson's combat experience. It's it's a crazy Encouraged people in the discord and elsewhere to keep arguing about it. You're gonna get to the bottom of this. And message Woody with questions. It was pretty tough on the night before. There were a couple of guys just like I don't know. They were talking as if they were experts saying the most ridiculous, untrue things about fighting and I find that hard to sit through. Yes.

Yes. Those were enough. Yes. That. I'm not an expert, but I do watch two or three hours a week every week for the last 10 years. I know you're silly right now. Um, I knew that fight was going to be a goofy thing from the beginning, you know, and there were moments that I thought, well, actually the, the Tyson

fight, I thought that there were moments and I see people saying online that it was a fixed fight that, um, that, that, that Tyson was holding back. They point to moments where they claim they can see Jake telling them to like, Whoa, whoa, whoa, you want to get paid or not? You know, like, don't hit me like that. I did think there was a moment where it looked like Jake was getting the best of Mike, and then he held back. Yeah, actually, I was waiting for a moment to jump in. I've seen the counter side where they thought that Jake kind of. They afraid that his respect that Jake didn't punish Tyson as much as he could have after Tyson was kind of beaten. Yeah, there was a time where he threw

this overhand left and then sort of like made it a jab after that and like hit him again in the same spot, but not as hard. And Tyson was like, he was like, it was like it looked like he was close to getting like beaten down to the point where he was like his defenses weren't up. He was he was just beating beating back Tyson looked like shit and then we got to see Tyson's ass after did you see that before I saw I saw it before

Yes, right unless it was Wow, that's funny if it was both I just saw I'm doing some kind of interview and he walked away and he's got his assless boxer chaps on and it's like Yeah, I all over the internet people know boxers are way bigger and more protective than say like most cups like what a hockey player would wear it the front of it is it sucks it's almost four inches tall and protective just under your belly button like it's like a goli cup yeah of just under your belly button. Like it's a strap. Oh, it's like a goalie cup, yeah.

Maybe I'm less goalie cups than I thought. Okay, so from the front, it's more modest than like a swimmer's, like a racing swimmer's Speedo. Like it covers more than most cups do, but you turn around and there's no butt to it and that's what he had on. Yeah, man, Netflix shit the bed so badly with that. I was excited about the concept

of Netflix doing more live stuff. I don't know about hockey, basketball viewership is way down. It's terrible right now. I didn't know that. And I've been hearing that football viewership is trending down for quite some time. I thought that was politics because I'm hyper fixated on politics sometimes.

But I think actually it just might be cord cutting and people have less live watching habits than they used to. So I was like, if Netflix starts doing lots of live stuff, let them be my basketball games, let them be my. I buy a sports package if it's reasonable, you know, I'm talking about $12 a month, I might buy a sports package. But after that, I'm like, you're not really selling me on this idea that you do this. Well, I saw people online being like, I watched I pay for Netflix, and I got to see three minutes of the fight. And all of that it was stuttery and then like in 360p

and these are the same retards who think they're going to be hosting the Patriots Chiefs game for the NFL in six weeks which might have a little more viewership than no boxing fight. It'll have less viewership. The boxing fight is it catches so many people from all different circles. I didn't, I had a little bit there were seven a million people watching a B's stream. We had to me and my friends. We tried three different people's a B. Antonio Brown. He's a NFL player who has like a big Twitter account.

And he was at the fight and he was just streaming from his seats. The big Megatron showing the fight. And so he wasn't getting shut down like a lot of the other ones. But I remember sitting there like, I had never seen a live stream on Twitter with 8 million concurrent viewers before. And those are all people, many of them who have Netflix and now probably don't. Did it work out? It was better than Netflix's alternative. Like we had to watch the entire fight on this Twitter thing. And it wasn't like we tried Netflix once and then gave up.

My friend's condo we were at, he tried to cast it up there on his Netflix, wouldn't work, died. Then another friend logged in, tried to cast his up there, died, like it would not work at all. We'd get it going for five seconds and then it would die. I didn't have those issues. I watched one of the earlier fights, maybe two girls fighting, and I noticed that it was all fucked up. Like it would

buffer and then it would stop and I had to restart it. And I was like, I'll come back when the Tyson fights on, they'll get this sorted out. And they had for me when I finally came back to the Tyson fight. By the way, it took them four hours to get to the Tyson fight somehow. I think they had- The streaming wasn't working. No, it took them four hours to get to the Tyson fight somehow. I think they had the streaming wasn't working. No, it was because that it had I think it was because that's just their layout. They were delaying it because so many users had no access. I don't know why they were delaying it, but that's a good theory. Yeah. The show that they put on was so amateur.

I heard Dana White talk about how he puts on his own show, like how if he ever went to a Netflix or something Like I make my own show not you're not coming in here producing anything This is my show that I produce with my people and my cutting and my everything Because I just remember watching it and thinking like this is bad Like this is this production value is bad and they had four people sitting at a desk for hours talking They had a woman they had four people sitting at a desk for hours talking. They had a woman, they had a Vander Holyfield, they had Lennox Lewis, and then another guy

that I didn't recognize, a younger black guy. And the four of them sat there at this desk with the crowd in the background for hours and hours. And I swear to God, every time I clicked back to it, they were talking about the same thing. Does Mike hit hard, Vander? And Vander goes, my headset don't work. Lennox Lewis leans into him. Lennox Lennox leans into his ear goes, They want to know if Mike hit hard.

And go, He used to. One ear out. That's even that's not good. But the version that like what I remember of it was they had Cedric the entertainer, Michael Irving, some woman who I don't know, and maybe a boxer, and they were talking about it. And I'm like, why am I listening to Michael Irvin talk about boxing? You're not my guy. Like if this is the boxing event, I want to,

I know there are people who specialize in boxing commentating, hire one of them, you know, Teddy Atlas or something. Hire someone who knows this. And I was the early, early UFC did that too. They had Jim Brown, that football player for played for Syracuse and maybe Cleveland. Yeah. And as if he knew the first thing about fighting, he did a tough guy. Yeah, you're a tough guy. Commentate this news.

Yeah, he was good at football in lacrosse. So there they have him talking about fighting, and it's like you don't do either of those things. I hate that, I don't like it, made me upset. Also the girls, there was the woman's title fight, I think it was the co-main, like the one right before Jake Paul, they robbed that woman.

She clearly won, like by a lot. And the other woman was super dirty. She was headbutting all night long. So this Irish chick hit this, I think she might've been from Puerto Rico, I'm not sure, but it hit the Browner chick in the eye with her head all night long targeting it with headbutts, obviously clearly.

And then in the post fight interview, they're like, yeah, she does that in all her fights. This was a rematch that she headbuted her all the time in the first fight She had butts other opponents the woman's like I am a 40 and two I've only been cut open twice both times against her. You know, she had butted all night long She got points deducted for headbutting at one point but then the scores came out Everyone on my call could clearly see that the victim of the headbutts was winning.

And the commentating crew on Netflix all had her winning, the experts, everyone. The crowd was so pissed when the result came out because they handed it to the wrong woman. And- That's boxing. That's gay. Yeah.

Yeah, no wonder boxing just is going to lose this fight against MMA over time. Like it's just worse. I'm as a more neutral observer than either of you, because you guys are both huge MMA guys. Like it's, it is astounding when like, cause I just think about what an MMA fight is like when I hear about a boxing fight and I'm like, Oh, fighting is exciting. Like this is going to be good. And then you watch boxing and you're like, Oh, fuck, they got me. They got me. This shit sucks.

I wrote that in our WhatsApp. I was like, I'm the boxing cycle got me again. They get me hype for a fight. They disappoint me with the fight. Repeat. I do it all the time. 80% of boxing is marketing. Yes.

Like in a way that you could, I guess you could say that about MMA, but it's really not like a huge portion of MMA is like the combat that's going on. It's bloodlust. It's brutal. Boxing just isn't like that. It's not exciting.

Weird things don't happen. At the end of the Michael Chandler, Charles Olavera fight, Charles won like every round and then they got to the last round and it's not going that way anymore and Charles comes back though Charles gets on Michael Chandler's back like a monkey Michael Chandler's run out of time he's clearly lost the fight on rounds so what does he do he goes to the middle of the octagon and he jumps as high in the air as he can and body and like back slams Charles Olivera into the mat and the crowd goes wild and you see him all of a sudden he's like struggling

and you're like wait he's trying to get up and he does he stands up again with Charles Olivera on his back and body slams him again into the mat and it was great. Who won? This night? Charles Oliveira won. The guy doing the jumping had lost and he knew it was a losing effort. But he was just having a little fun in there. Although he could have knocked him out, I guess, in some freak incident. That would have been incredible if Charles's head had hit just right when he slammed him backwards on the mat.

I saw somebody do that in the UFC and it was a double knockout. And it was that who recovers from the knockout faster kind of victory who plays it off like they weren't not that the rule. Like both people, I don't think so. But they're like trying to convince the ref that like, I wasn't out. They don't even know that they were out. I think they might legitimately have not realized that they've been laying still for six seconds

or something like that. And, cause I've been, I haven't been knocked out, but I've been choked out and that time confusion is real. So. Yeah. Being like knocked out fully in front of that many people and like everybody like cheering and being happy to see you get knocked out has got to be like

the worst kind of recovery. No, no, because there's been more. I'm at work. Cheer. My ass kicked. That's bad. But there's been multiple people who shat themselves in the octagon and the poop ran out on the floor. And then they tried to like kick it a little to hide it. But then it just smeared all over the floor. And then everybody starts noticing slowly but surely and like, ah, human feces is on the floor. And then the announcer crew notices. That's how I'd get out of a fight in the UFC.

Just fill myself up with nothing but cheese and fiber one bars for three days. It's a rule, it's a disqualification. On a couple levels. So it's banned now, but fighters used to be able to take diuretics to help themselves make weight. So they would just like force diarrhea upon themselves to just get out everything they could. And then sometimes the next day there's still an impact.

Okay. Gross. Yes. Super gross. But now, now you can't use that to dehydrate yourself. Well, it's good. They're closing up all the loopholes over there in the fighting game. I did see a lot of people online after the fight, you know, being like, Oh, this lined it up. He's got to fight Aspen all now. If John Jones doesn't fight Aspen, all he's a big fucking pussy. He's a big old pussy. And then other people being like, he's going to kill Aspinall you fucking idiot and like

Do you think that's gonna happen? No Dana said it was but I think it's not what Dana meant was His neck one time his next fight if he wants to keep that belt as Tom Aspinall What he wants clearly and he said over and over is that he wants to fight Alex Pereira And I know Dana doesn't want that, but if Alex and, and John. Talk about it enough and you get some fan interest, that'll be the next fight. He'll either retire or he'll fight Alex. I would guess. I agree with everything Kyle said, but I wish he was wrong.

Yeah. Yeah. So, um, that's the cool fight anyway. And I, and I think that, that like, whoever wins that fights, the my goat, whoever wins that file saying that as a John Jones fan who doesn't want to watch him get his shit pushed in by Tom Aspinall. I just don't think very much of Tom Aspinall. I think that he's the contender right now, but John defeated contenders from

like six generations running now. It would be cool to see him fight someone his own age, who's also up and coming. I mean, I'm not denying that John Jones is the best fighter of 2020. I'm denying that he's the best fighter right now, which is what he claims. He destroyed Stipe. Stipe is the best fighter of 2018. You know, like this is getting wild. It's a big age gap because it gets fighting, but like John Jones is 37. Aspen all's 31. So like it's not a insurmountable thing. It does as it was going downhill.

It seems like one Jones is going downhill. Yeah, exactly. That's why John Jones is afraid to fight this guy. Right. Why would you like why would he risk his legacy? Does John Jones want his last fight to be this Aspenall guy brutalizing him, ruining his legacy? Fuck no. He'd rather take a nice easy jaunt in the park against this guy he knows is going to win.

That's it. And I would have liked it more if he was honest about it. You know, if you, I don't know, if John's is, I want him to say this, he never will. I've made a career out of fighting people who just came up from 185. I want to do it again. Like that's, that's what he does. Nowhere near 185.

So John Jones wants to fight the guy that's smaller than him, not the guy that's bigger than him. Correct. Okay. That makes sense. But the idea that's not like running. It looks like he's an inch taller and five pounds heavier. So not in a, not in like a huge way.

Aspen will weight in at like 250, 258 or something. Did he? Like he looks like just picture wise, he looks like a broader, he looks maybe a little broader than Jones. He's taller too. Yeah. A little taller, a little broader. Jones has really thin light legs. And I felt like that's helped him his whole career. I know strong legs are supposed to help with punching power, but in a weight.

Like if I'm speccing my character and Elden ring, I don't waste it on intelligence. If I'm speccing my UFC fighter, I don't waste it on big calves. He's strong though. It, they're just visually and physically small. Like, like it on big calves. He's strong though. They're just visually and physically small like like he squats Big weights like I've seen him squatting and dead and tons of weight if anything He's just not sure Harper blade to swing, but I think that His skinny legs while I agree that they're strong might weigh less Maybe he digs that toe into their midsection so mean

Like he's doing out of the steep a all night like he worked Steve's body all night. That's how he won the fight He beat steep a's body to death Constantly kicking it constantly punching it and it was rough steep a so tough See baby, see had so doing that until he didn't yeah. Yeah Jones had him down and was smashing him with those elbows and It was like steep a was made out of leather. He wouldn't cut Really? It was crazy. I mean like clean open John Jones elbows with you up against the cage and you're just looking up at him going one two three four and he

Barely cut his cheek right here on like the 12th one up against the cage and you're just looking up at him going one two three four and he just barely cut his cheek right here on like the 12th one it was crazy beat the shit out of him um i hope steve got paid i'm looking at this like little face-off between john jones and tom aspenall i guess at some mma convention aspenall was like i'm just gonna go like walk up on John Jones and like do this little, like maybe try and instigate something. He, Aspinall looks more than an inch taller than Jones. Oh, yeah. And so that Jones is tall. Yeah. He's a tall guy. They're both towering over everybody else in this picture, but yeah, Aspinall also looks wider, broader. I dude, if I were John Jones,

I'd be afraid to fight this guy, especially if I was like, I'm not John Jones. I'm still afraid. Oh, he does. Either one of these guys. I'm going to lose. Every one of the planet should be afraid of Tom Aspinall right now. For sure. If it's not fucking Magic, the gathering, I'm losing the contest against these guys.

But I am. Yes, that's my chest guy. I'm not a chess guy either. Fuck. Yeah. I, I, I have this Elden ring thing I've been doing. So I, I, I'll try to move it quick. You beat the game eight times, right? Every time you beat it, it gets harder with that account. I was kind of finished. It only gets harder after eight. So I beat it on its hardest one. I made a new account,

leveled it up to one 50, which is like a good level to help other people. Did that for a while, but I find other people to be annoying sometimes when I'm trying to help them. And they're like, you died? Really? You had one job, like I'm doing everything. You can't do this, keep yourself alive,

like you're frustrating me. So now I'm trying to beat the game without leveling up. It's this thing called OneBros, people who stay at level one, never make their character better yet still progress through all the bosses. I have three bosses left. And I'm stuck. I'm apparently not good enough. And I like the boss I'm on right now I've lost to 175 times.

Oh my fucking god. Is part of you a little bit happy that after this like just trouncing for so long there is another challenge? Yeah I, no, not happy. I didn't realize that like, I guess sometimes I know hit a boss and I'm like, yeah, I guess I'm pretty good. Yeah, you're no hitting a boss because you hit pretty hard and you only need like 12 unanswered hits. When you raise that number to like 30. It's not going well. And you're getting one shot. I'm sure

every time. Yeah, I can't survive any shots. It's to the point now where I've like taken off all my armor, because it's not helping. I dodge a little bit better when I'm like taken off all my armor because it's not helping anyway. It's slowing you down. I dodge a little bit better when I'm light and armor's not, if I gotta be one shot, I might as well be really, really one shot. There's that concept in Tarkov when you're building like the SVD.

It's like, it's got so much recoil. Like don't even worry about trying to mitigate recoil. Just give yourself more ear ergo. There's no difference between 250 recoil and 300. It's going to the ceiling. You know what I mean? So I'm, I downloaded a mod where you can just so here's a thing that was happening. This boss, he runs across and starts hitting you just as you enter the arena. So it takes me about

a minute and a half to get back into the boss fight. And sometimes my fights are three seconds long. And then you do that like three times in a row and you're like, God damn it. I played for nine seconds out of the last, like, I don't know, five minutes. And I'm not learning very much. I'm just getting frustrated. So I have this mod now that lets me fight bosses

with infinite HP. And I'm just dodging, dodging, dodging, practicing, practicing. And as I beat the boss, I'm like, all right, I would have lost that 16 times. That's better than my last attempt. I'm not, I, I see these streamers. So I know I'm, I don't mean that I don't suck at Elden Ring. It would be exaggerated to say that I do.

I'm actually better than most, but I see the guys on Twitch. I know what great is and I'm not great. And I aspire to be in, I'm not getting there quickly. So after this, you got to be one of those people that like beats it on a dance dance revolution pad. That might be easier. I've seen them do that. You can target your way to victory.

Yeah. I mean, the idea that every single hit kills you is just pretty unforgiving. And I need to wrap up, but this guy has all these area of effect damages and I'm finding them inescapable sometimes. And he has three attacks. One of the three is not an area effect.

So I'm like, oh, punish opportunity. Nope. That's a death. So Elden Ring is beating me so badly right now that I'm getting, it's hard to stay happy. This isn't the first plateau you've encountered. It might actually be the last though. So you can just forge through it.

You're so close. Spend your whole evening doing this i i started this one bros challenge and i'm like i've already beaten the first four bosses like in my first day this is going smoothly and then as i work along it's taking me like a day to get past a boss two days to get past the boss and this one i might have i don't know if i can do this so you can do it i believe in you.

Hmm. Yeah. Have you been getting, um, what's that? Do you guys start your sky rib thing together? No, I've been playing VR a good bit. I've been playing Batman Arkham, uh, VR. That's really fun. They got the what's that thing called? I bought meta quest three or something like that. Whatever it is. Oculus three, something it's like $500 standalone. You don't need a bunch of like- Literally no computer, $500 and it's a full gaming system. Yeah, it's really good.

It's better than the one that used to like connect to my PC with all the sensors and everything. It's really good. What do you need in your room? Are there like, really? Cause I think previous systems had like the equivalent of tripods or light stands or something do Okay, I'm do this one does every this one So these goggles give you this video input of the world around you so you can do augmented reality

So you're sitting in your living room, but let's make it a Paris outside Look and like the windows are Paris outside or it's snowing outside or like hmm You can make things in your house become touchable interactable objects within a game augmented reality But the games themselves are really good. I find that I got some pistols for the controllers off Amazon You just put the controllers in the pistols and it feels more like guns for the controllers off Amazon. You just put the controllers in the pistols and it feels more like guns. But Arkham, you're Batman flying around and beating up bad guys. And they let you have those.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, well, don't tell anybody, you know, I'll keep your secret. More of a don't ask. Don't get $300. That might be the S version or something. It is that yeah, that's not quite as good I don't remember what the downgrade is if it's battery power or Processing or something, but I got the $500 one the one that doesn't have an s Okay

I like it a lot. I think it's pretty cool. The games are expensive. That was the only thing I was surprised by they're like regular I think it's pretty cool. The games are expensive. That was the only thing I was surprised by. They're like regular AAA game price a lot of the time. They're like $50 games. It's like, what? I thought you were like me. Exactly game is Arkham Asylum.

Just different game. I haven't played. I seriously doubt it is, but I haven't played the other one, so I don't really know. Okay. I remember that game being hugely popular when it came out. So some games can be the best value in entertainment. I'll spend $20 to go to a movie theater

and maybe 15 more for the snacks and stuff. And in two hours it's over and I'm out what, 35 bucks? I spent 80 bucks or a hundred bucks on Elden Ring and I'm 800 hours into it now at this point. That is cheap. Call of Duty used to be similarly cheap. I buy, I think I pay like 120 a year, you know, 60 plus some DLC.

And it's like, you know, make $400,000 off Call of Duty videos. You factor that in. You factor that in. You factor that in. But even if I didn't make videos, like the just amount of entertainment I got gaming is super super cheap But do you think these?

VR games you're getting like five hours out of and setting it down the the Beat Saber game and games like that where there's there'll be like It's different things some you remember fruit ninja There's like there's games like that where the their stuff's coming at you and you're slicing and they're shooting games. I don't know if I could get into one singular game and grind it forever, because I don't think they're gonna have that level of depth

that an Elden Ring has. I think Elden Ring is kind of a once in a generational game. Everybody talks like that's just the B's, N's. They say that in Baldur's Gate. Is up for game of the year. Yeah, yeah, that's incredible. Everybody talks that in Baldur's Gate as Is up for game of the year. Yeah, yeah, that's incredible. Everybody touts that in Baldur's Gate as the two quadruple A games.

The ones that went beyond what everybody else does and they're on their own pedestal and platform above because they're just so in-depth and so good. But so I don't see that from VR yet. There is a game called Ghosts of Tabor, I think. It's Tarkov. You basically basically play Tarkov in VR. I haven't done that yet. I did it on that Monkey King game. People were talking about the shitty reviews. I don't know if it's good. And so I avoided it,

but it looks just like Elden Ring, but maybe easier. So there's a genre of games called Souls like. Have you heard that before? Yeah. Okay. So it's a genre of games called Souls-like. Have you heard that before? Yeah, okay. So it's a Souls-like game. I'm also playing Lies of P, which is a P stands for Pinocchio and lies is like untruth.

And so Lies of P and it's highly regarded. It's pretty good. I don't know. I like it because my wife is tired of watching Elden Ring, but she sits there and she'll be like, okay, head down the hallway. There's gonna be a cop with a baton ambushing you from the right. And we do the game that way.

And are you, I love that you're Pinocchio? Yeah, yeah. I don't think they use the word Pinocchio that maybe that's copyrighted or something, but I'm talking to Geppetto. Geppetto. Oh yeah, I'm talking to Geppetto. There's a lot of donkeys with hats around. One of the first bosses was a donkey.

I've got, I forget the little crickets. I'm Jim the Cricket. Like Jiminy Cricket or something is in my lantern. Any smokes in this one because it's dark? No, that's Peter Pan. I forget, someone's lighting up your little light so that you can see in the dark. That's a Pinocchio reference

It sounds from the remake the fairy godmother will just be a gay, dude Yeah, yeah black get black bald gay, dude a black bald get in a wheelchair It'll be that it'll be that black lady that has the variety of wigs on MSNBC I don't know who that you would think those people get paid better. She has the word. I've got better wigs than her She showed up with this blonde wig like a while back and it's like all over her head. There's a montage they show like come from commercial break to commercial break because you can tell they're moving it around like during is it like a like a spirit Halloween level. I swear to god it looks so it looks like a cheap blonde like punk rock wig. I kind of want

to see it. I don't know those people's names because I despise them so much. It's black lady who's bald, who's insufferable on left wing media, whatever that lady's name is. I think that's Joy Reid. It is Joy Reid. It is because I saw a meme today where they were like, for someone whose name is Joy, what a cunt.

Isn't she bald? Zach, can you show this picture? Yeah, yeah. It might be exactly what Kyle's going for. Oh, I don't think I've ever seen her in a wig. For someone whose name is Joy. What a cunt. Isn't she back? Can you show this picture? I think it might be exactly what Kyle's going for. Oh, I don't think I've ever seen her in a wig. She's not not bald like Alopecia. That's the wig. She keeps it not shaved, but like short.

You got a Trump wig on. Oh, this is right from the Hindustan times. Oh, that is hilarious. Yeah, I think her hair grows normally, but that's not the style. She doesn't choose what most people do. Did she? For when you see something like this on network television, this means that there are producers behind the scenes that fucking hate her.

I'm serious. Like she must be shitty to her producers or something because there's no excuse to allow that to happen. It's embarrassing. As someone who thinks that Democrats are better for the country, that's what I think. I'm trying my best. I feel like people like her actively hurt their movement. If she's our representative, please get her off TV. Stop being our representative. You are hurting the effort to have an efficient, well-run government. Oh, I disagree.

You guys just haven't pushed the trans thing hard enough. You have to just go for it. White people bad, trans good. Did you see AOC? That's what I was saying. Replace her with a non-cis person. I don't know what a non-sys person is called But you know getting you do Is it trans is it just bi or trans? I don't know whatever

Get this woman off my tv. It doesn't matter. It's 2024. We're done pretending any of this shit's real moving on Hmm Uh, I saw aoc took the pronouns out of her twitter bio. I was like, yeah, I saw that. I love it. I love it. Drop that shit and AOC needs to stop saying Latin X. She stopped saying woke like get rid of all of it.

It's yeah. Yeah, it's fun to watch this enormous schism in the Democratic Party occur over the next few years. I look forward to seeing real cabinet take place. I want to see what they do. I want to see if anything happens or if nothing at all. What they say is going to happen is like right away, Matt Gaetz is installed.

He starts tearing shit down. Vivek and Elon are installed. They start tearing shit down. Education department's torn up. FDA is riddled. EPA is taken out of existence, ATF and the FBI and CIA are investigated. No more free lunch is the cotton cost.

I'm trying to look at all this stuff through the most rose colored glass as possible. I'm like, Rubio, bit of a hawk, but at least he's like a normal person, not gonna get upset about that. I don't love that they have like a vaccine denier who thinks fluoride makes children gay in charge of the FDA.

That's not my favorite. I don't love that they have a pedophile as the new attorney general. Technically a haphaphyl. Or whatever. That lady of the night was 17 and she got what she was looking for. I guess so. Traffic. Look, look, who better to know whether what he did was illegal or not than the attorney general?

I mean, you're making good points. And then Tulsi Gabbard, isn't she in charge of like defense or something? And she just echoes Russian talking points all the time. They're always taking her and putting her on like Russian times TV to sort of say this is like, they love what she has to say. I'm not saying she's a paid agent like half of the internet does.

I don't know that, but I do know she says things that the pay agents are saying, maybe voluntarily. That's all I heard. She's been six years, right? So I feel like Trump's making some yucky choices, but the Elon Vivek thing, my mind is open. Like there is a lot of waste in government. Elon in particular has shown to be good at cutting waste.

So let's see what he's got. Like if you remember the Twitter thing where he took over Twitter, he was like openly posting messages that like correspondence he was having with like high up administrators in Twitter. And these people were like, like trying to foment a bit of a coup as it was happening where they're like, Elon, you don't understand that we need this, that the other thing, and this is essential and we need to have this giant safety administrative trust

board so that when government officials do contact us about removing content, we can make the steps necessary to do." And Elon just responded like, what did you get done this week? He was like, what did you get done this week? And if you've met a lot of government employee style people, like Woody's said before, and I echo and agree, like there is no more horrifying question to most government workers than

someone about to hold them accountable who asked the question, what did you do this week? Because most of them don't do shit. There's a, there's a small minority that are working their fucking fingers to the bone to keep shit moving. And they're surrounded by like basically a jobs program of people, like a TSA equivalent of a jobs program where it's like, Oh, we need, we need 70 agents at the St.

Louis airport. Do we, we need, we need 70 agents all the time. We need more agents than we do. Like people going through security. We have 15 people standing off to the side. You want them to be outnumbered? I agree with Taylor. For the front line of their safety. There's probably too many employees, which I think was the core of what you were saying.

But I think there's also overpaying for subcontractors. And I'd like to look at that really hard as well. Yeah, there's so much waste to be cut. Like I don't see how you could see that. I think we should sell Puerto Rico. Like that, even if you're the biggest Trump hater, if they're like, hey, for once, Like, I don't see how you could see that. And I think we should see Puerto Rico like that. Even if you're the biggest Trump hater, if they're like, hey, for once, instead of the government deciding

to print money to handle things or to increase taxes, like let's do a little, how about a little audit? Let's take a little peek. When's the last time the Pentagon misplaced a trillion dollars? Oh, recently again, or like the amount of money, the amount of waste, we got to chop it out. Hopefully they actually get it done. We'll see. But then there's also

like, I see people who go too far on that side, where they like misattribute where the waste is mostly going, where they'll be like, they spent 100 grand to research beetle mating habits in the Midwest in winter or in spring or whatever. And it's like, yeah, like play it forward though. Like the impetus of that is trying to like do predictive crop evaluations and things like that probably does pay off in dividends and it's pretty cheap. The real waste is not there.

It's military industrial, it's welfare. It's- You and I agree on a lot in these last couple minutes. I remember there was one where they studied cow farts. That was the thing I was always hearing about like 20 years ago. Turns out like the methane production in cows is not trivial.

Like it is noteworthy addition to carbon or methane, warming, methane, which apparently is so much worse than carbon. I don't understand science. But yeah, the amount of methane cows produce is material. And it wasn't a wasted study. It's the belches more than the farts. Okay, really? Because of the rumination. I've heard that before. I don't know much about it. But in any case, yeah. So some stuff that they paint as ridiculous and stupid maybe, you know, isn't so stupid, but some stuff.

It can be worded to make it sound outrageous. You know, like the one I heard recently was something about studying Russian cats. And I was like, why are we studying Russian kitty cats? Is that what you mean? Like kitty cats, Russian ones? Why? Sure. But they don't tell you the whole thing. And it probably I don't know. We're probably I don't know why we're studying Russian cats, but there might be a good reason.

There are ones that are like very clear, either just retarded spending or money laundering, where it's like we paid three million dollars for analyzing interpretive dance in Croatia or just retarded spending or money laundering, where it's like, we paid $3 million for analyzing interpretive dance in Croatia from an intersectional perspective. Oh, someone's laundering money. Okay, that's what's happening here. Like, okay, well, let's shut that down.

No more of this. No more free lunches. Everybody else is paying taxes. Everybody's fucking sick of it. How about we get something for it? There are people on the blue side who can't see any possible goodness coming out of the Trump administration. And I'm not that guy.

Didn't he say he wanted to cap interest rates on credit cards to 10% and him Bernie are working on going to work on that together. I heard Bernie say that I didn't know he had a partner in it. I assume that Bernie that saw Trump as his partner based on something Trump had said. I like that about Bernie. One of my criticisms of Bernie, for example, he didn't support Kamala for months because she didn't pass his purity test of just how

liberal she was supposed to be. And the Bernie Sanders purity test is a pretty fucking difficult test. And it's like dude she's trying to win an election you're gonna get trump with this horse shit which we did but now he's going the other way working with trump and i'd rather have seen that the whole way through like you can find an issue you agree on then get something done yeah i i genuinely think they should have done joe rogan i i think that might have mattered. I think the numbers would have been different. I don't know that she would

have won from doing a roguelike. If she did Rogan, it did well. There's been a catastrophe on that on Joe Rogan. Maybe, maybe not. We don't know. But like, I genuinely don't know her. She was flubbing like softball interviews. I know that. Well, she's put in a weird spot. I'm not sure how I would answer some of the questions where they ask you about, you know, okay, you've been vice president for four years. You've got all these ideas. You ever float those to your boss? Oh, so why hasn't he implemented them?

Does he not take you serious or they are easy? Not think they're feasible. Oh, well, I didn't think I wanted to talk about the summer fashion What are you doing to me? I would have liked to have seen her on Rogan I've seen other politicians Andrew Yang is the one I have in my head who I didn't really agree with he had this universal basic income thing and then when you saw him have enough time to really explain where the money came from and why he thinks it's a Good idea. Yeah, it was a whole lot better than his 90 second pitch and you know So I it's like oh you give people a nice long form platform to explain what they're up to and that's great

I hope next election cycle a lot of people do that Bernie was the first guy like like My favorite thing that's being pointed out, it was that picture of like, Donald Trump, Tulsi Gabbard, RFK, and Elon, and it says, they were all Democrats eight years ago. Like, like, like you can because because the thing coming from the left right now is like, we need a bro whisperer. We've got to create our create our own Joe Rogan.

And it's like, you had your own Joe Rogan. It was Joe Rogan like yeah, you have you have all these media apparatuses and you just have Squandered them by like, you know Engaging in promoting niche issues that are alienating to the public instead of things that are important Those that have been watching Joe Rogan for you know, eight years or so No that like it's pretty liberal and he's come toward the right over the years, but he kind of got pushed in that direction by some of the more extremes on the left, I feel like. And now- For sure. A lot of your left-leaning people

have moved right specifically because of the censorship thing. It's, well, I feel like there's this thing from the left where when they come into like blue class, uh, class communities or, or when they court those voters, they almost court them like a missionary coming to, um, some impoverished nation and showing you the way like, Oh, Hey, Hey there. Hey there. Midwesterner. Didn't you know you're voting against your own best interest? Of course you didn't. Well, let me show you the light. Come with me, come with me little guy. It almost feels like you're being talked down to you from the left and the right is just like bro

Don't you want come party? All right, just seems like so much more fun and friendly now and I see people wearing those goddamn MAGA hats You won't get me to wear one because it's like I when I see one I get a very Visceral sort of thought process that comes to me about that person very visceral sort of thought process that comes to me about that person. Not every Trump supporter wears a MAGA hat. If you're wearing a MAGA hat, you're making a statement about a few things about yourself.

If you're out in public wearing that thing, you might be an asshole. To me, it says, fuck your feelings, right? Yeah. That's what they're telling you. Fuck you, I just won. And I'm like, all right, you did just win, I'm not denying that. And I'm like, all right, you did just win. I'm not denying that.

But I think that I'm reading into some things about you that are uncool. Yeah, I can't help it, but I do feel that way about that hat. But I see people wearing it now. I see TikTok dances of people doing the Trump dance. And I see like young people at universities doing the Trump dance and wearing Trump wigs

and wearing MAGA hats and I've never seen that shit before. It's almost like it became a little bit cooler to be a Trump supporter. Oh it absolutely, like the like school marm, scolding tone the left has had for the past 10 years is unbelievably off-putting to people. They've switched places to some extent. It used to be the Republicans, this is like 20 years ago, 25 years ago, were the ones who were kind of the college-educated minority, and now that's the Democrats. Now they're the educated ones who have lost the majority of, you know, non-college grads. Like the working class is moving towards the right. Yeah, for sure. We'll see if the Republicans keep the working class post Trump, because I think he's uniquely attractive to a lot of people.

And when he goes out and like, I don't know, make it up, Paul Ryan, JD Vance, or someone else from the right, Mike Johnson steps up. I don't know if they're going to get the union worker in the same way that Trump did. If they pivot back to like traditional neocon bullshit, the Republicans will get blown the fuck out. Like that's done. Like most of these Republicans, even the establishment ones are either retiring like McConnell or they're kind of like Rubio where they're like, all right, the

writing is on the fucking wall. No one is engaged by our neocon horse shit anymore. Uh, we got to go to the MAGA team if we wanna stay relevant and keep winning. But you're right, it's gonna be a difficult transition away from Trump unless someone like Vance can really, you know, seize that mantle over the next four years. Yeah, we'll see.

Yeah. We'll see. Also, I wonder what Trump's death is gonna be like. So I've been thinking it sooner than it turned out. Hard attack. I agree. I see a fat old guy who will snap off someday. Yeah, here he is not looking snappy, not looking like he's about to get snapped at all. So like, what is it?

I don't know. What's on today? Is does he honestly he's on the weight down train right now. I was gonna say, I saw him today watching the SpaceX rocket launch, and I was like, is he on the Azempec? Oh yeah. Is he on, his face looks a little shit. He should be on Azempec.

You think he's zemped up? I bet he is. If he's zemped up, then we're in for a three term president. Let's do it. The funniest, and I know we're gonna end, but like the, did you guys see that hilarious picture of that, like UFC group on the plane? And clearly Trump is like.

Robert, you're going to eat the Big Mac. It's going to happen. You're eating it. We're all sitting here. We're all going to eat it. I ordered that for you special. No pickles. Just like you like like. And you see R.F. RFK sitting there doing like that Like trying not to be mad face Like holding up his burger. I mean, so fucking funny just

McDonald's but the framing was different Was it this picture they made it seem like RFK was some sort of hypocrite who eats McDonald's in private, but I don't think that's how it really happened. No, this is a guy who's being told. You know he has a timer on his phone? So someone showed he had a timer on his phone

from how long it had been since he'd had a Coca-Cola, and it was like thousands of days. It was like 12,000 days or something. It was so long. Mr. President, I don't know if I should have. You're going to drink the coke. It's going to happen. Do you know how many parachutes we have on board?

Zero. Interesting, right? Drink the coke. I haven't had a coke in... One. They use it for trucks. That's like the way you Epstein Island RFKs, you get footage of him eating McNuggets and hold it over his head. I get dip them, dip them.

Dip them in the sludge, Robert. Can I see that picture again, Zach? Trying to evaluate. I said we all saw RFK like bench pressing with no shirt on looking looking amazing for a 40 year old, you know, when he's probably pushing. He looks fit to me. Like I am seeing a deltoid the bicep crease on that arm that's closer to us. A little Mike Johnson over there. He didn't get any. They should like let him pick out a couple of fries. Get out of here.

Look at what's coming in. He wanted the so Elon's got the double. We got the quarter pounder, a large fry and 10 nuggets. Looks like he went with a sweet and sour sauce, I think on top. I think I like I like Elon's plate the most, the most variety Trump with an orange soda over there. That is not on brand. He's a diet Coke boy through and through. So that's surprising. And then anyway, man, I'm so hungry. Let's all go to, let's wrap it.
