Painkiller Already - PKN 589

Episode Date: December 3, 2025

P.KN. 589. It's up, boys. How's it going? Three shovels this week. I've had to shovel my driveway thrice, three different times. But you use the shovel more than once each time. It sounded like three shovels was not that big a deal. Three full clears, we should say. Yeah, it took a whole shoveling. And it's so fucking aggravating when like five inches of snow comes down, you shovel it. And then like two hours later you're in your house it's starting to get dark out and then like you see the snow settling and like this on your your skylights in your yard and it's like oh awesome like i could have just waited till tomorrow i could have done the same amount of work once instead of twice we're all going through our own weather catastrophes when i let the dogs out at 4 a m and a t-shirt

and underwear it's chilly it is it is and that is the worst kind of chilly because you're like mad at the dogs for being like you son of a bitch getting me out of it is chilly it was rainy last night too i was just trying to act like north carolina weather couldn't be bad but it was kind of disgusting out yeah 4 a.m. rain cold is never good no it's not a flattering feeling when you're out there your nipples are hard truthfully i've been camping in that weather and low key i love camping in that weather i like a fire that's so fucking masculine, it beats rain. I like, you know, to bring that hot rock into my sleeping bag at night,

wrap it in a hoodie and put it on my chest to keep me warm in there. I like this idea that this tiny little tent with its thin little fabric, ultralight, whatever, is protecting me from the weather. And, you know, maybe snow's even building up on the rainfly. Like, that's a vibe that I really dig. And I had, I remembered it last night when I was. I was like, I was like, I've been camping in this weather. I can answer.

Did you ever watch the Outdoor Boys? Oh, yes. Yeah, you know, he came back for one video. That's what I was going to talk about. We had an outdoor boys super prolific. Like a year ago. Yeah, Outdoor Boys super prolific like survival channel. And he sort of retired because the celebrity was becoming, it was impacting his real

life and he didn't like it. And his buddy's wife diagnosed with cancer. So he's uploaded a whole adventure on their channel to raise money for that. what a good guy yeah super good guy I watched the I think they're in episodes maybe I watched some of it

I don't know I mostly just clicked to like donate a little bit of money and like the video he knock out some of that tasty bread I have no idea on his bread you didn't watch it I have no idea I don't know the honey butter lore I watch him a little bit for the camping I enjoy the camping

and stuff but I think what I really like is the struggle of a better than average person, but not a superhero either. When he's carrying his gear, he drags in a sled for people that don't watch in the Alaskan cold. And he'll drag a sled uphill with like shovels and other gear he needs to survive. And it's hard work. It's incredibly hard work. And it's interesting just watching a person push themselves. It's fun to see. And he's a great guy. Being a good human is core to his brand. And I think it's true. Yeah. Well, he's a never have stereotypes aligned more perfectly than like my experience with Mormons and then learning that this

guy's Mormon. I was like, oh, that's why he's smiling and friendly and like wants to be and I used to be like, why are the comments on every one of his videos turned off? I guess like some people said negative things about his kids. And he was like, no. that's something that doesn't happen here no one talks you show up watch the channel and then you you get out of here we don't want to be involved in your online world and he also like on the survival side something i like about him is he's he's legit he's real not like bear grills cheaters where there are clips where he's like i thought it was going to get down to like minus 20 today uh and i was prepared for that it's looking now like it's going to get down to minus 40 and i know

it's 1 30 in the morning but i'm i'm kind of a little bit nervous so I'm packing up I'm getting out of here I can't finish this video this isn't safe um part of being a outdoorsman is knowing when to call it and when you're prepared and we're not prepared dude he was in rural Alaska Kyle it was minus 40 and he's like trying to survive you don't you see you don't even get it you just don't get it dude he's fly as hell and you hate him for it no I'd leave too I'd fucking leave too um if you're there for negative 20 and it goes to negative 40 that's probably a big fucking deal i know back uh he had to like trudge back to his car because like he drove out there and then he had like a i guess a mile or two he had to walk out that's why i

asked i does the car start at minus 40 i thought you had to plug them in or something it i guess it did but uh he wasn't what was the problem i think he said that he had used like multiple normal fire's worth of fuel to try and boil water and that he couldn't get the water temperature even hot enough that it hurt him to put his finger in it like he's like i just yeah i'm burning through all my wood i can't compete with the elements out here like i there's no way for me to make this work that's scary that's cool i've never even considered that fire couldn't heat water faster than the air could cool it i've never camped in that i've never thought about that either i was like oh fuck that's scary one time when i was in boy scouts uh we knew it was going to get cold and by cold i think it

was we expected it to get down to 20 and it actually got down to zero and my parents were like worried about us and everything but what actually happened is some dude with a bunch of cabins saw boy scouts about to die and said you know do you guys want to sleep indoors and that's what we did it was one of the better happy trips we got our we freaking like everyone brought hockey sticks. We cleared the snow off the ice and we played hockey and people don't know. If you just clear snow off the ice, tennis shoes had pretty good grip, but the puck still slides pretty well. And it was a great, really cold weather time in the woods, but we had shelter in night. The like playing hockey on frozen ponds growing up was like one of the few moments

throughout my childhood where I had the presence of mind to be like, this is one of the good old days things that's happening right now. Oh. I had that in my head. And so like I remember like taking like mental images of like the heavy snowfall that was like two feet tall all over the pond everywhere that we hadn't pushed it off. We were all having some. We were like playing. We were like 10. And so we were playing until like hunger consumed us. And then we like do the kid thing where we sprint into my friend's house, eat as fast as we can because we don't want to waste even a second of ice time and then get right back out there have his dad bring out a big flashlight when it gets a little bit too dark that's awesome fucking cunt park ranger come out eventually on a different day that same

winter i think it was that winter the following one and it was like you just can't do this anymore dude i have the opposite story but similar so that this is childhood memories where you knew it was good at the time you know that i don't know trope cliche tick which you will where they're like one day you and your best friend from like 12 years old will hang out for the last time and neither of you will know it was the last time it just turned out that way i knew i knew i moved from morristown to ocean city at 12 years old and my best friend came to see me like at the end of the summer and this is i just knew it was the last time i was ever going to see him and on the last he stayed with us for like a week and on the last night we weren't

ready for it to end we weren't ready to just go to sleep and call it so we snuck out we snuck out we snuck out with like $15 worth of quarters in roles and played at the arcade all night long. And it was like 4 a.m. when we ran out of money and we beat knockout or whatever it was, Street Fighter. And we're like headed back home and we see the police on the boardwalk patrolling. So we jump over the guardrail, scuttle in the sand and hide under the boardwalks. The police won't catch us. We are not that slick, right?

He's, like, shining the flashlight at us. He's like, you know, I can see you. I'm staying perfectly still. He's like, you in the pink shorts and the white T-Card, come out. Yeah, the one making eye contact with me currently. There might be someone else here that this will wear big shorts. The odds of this being a lucky guess are pretty thin. So I snuck out.

And unlike your ranger, which is. what made me start that way. He became my defense attorney with my parents. He's like, listen, I wouldn't punish these guys. These are two good kids. They just want to do it. They'll make the most of it because we told them the whole story. He's like, this is a childhood memory that they formed together.

They didn't do anything wrong. They were playing in the arcade games. It's a good cop. Taking senses of their last time together. And I didn't get in any trouble. The cop did his job. That was the right choice. yeah you shouldn't get in trouble for that that's what a what a sad moment to know because I

never had that where I knew for sure it was the last time hanging out with the friend like I had friends in grade school me and my buddy Alex just fast friends and came over after school constantly we did everything and I remember like just overhearing my parents talking and being like oh yeah that guy whatever happened to him I don't know we were real tight and this and that like they're reminiscing with their friends and in my head I was like that wouldn't that won't ever happen to me me and Alex are going to be best friends forever no one has what me and Alex have which is hanging out after school together in a very normal way one of a kind yeah and uh no it happened where you just see him and then we went to different

middle schools and that was it like i never fucking saw that guy again i do remember like i i cried like a bitch at his house once we were both probably six or seven years old and there was this show on like kids post school tv like after school programming and it was this guy who was like bob ross but taught kids how to draw and he'd be like you start with this sort of movement and then that and then over here and look just from these simple shapes we can create a lion and now you can add the detail and this and that and i wanted so much as like a young kid i had a fantasy that i was good at art i don't know why but i i had no promise no no no prospects no one there's no evidence that i was good at art but i had a fantasy about it and i remember sitting there and like i would look at

my lion and then i'd look at over on a little play play table and i'd see alex's lion and like his was good and mine was horrible and i like just broke down and cried at his house when i was like six i was just like i mean i'm trying to draw the lion i can't get to draw the lion i had a fucking tantrum spas and it was and it was entirely jealousy fueled tantrum because i was jealous about its ability to draw the lion my whole ideation of being a famous artist died immediately this sad do you guys ever cry at your friend's house and get embarrassed that's the most open cry i can remember at a friend's house because his older brother was like if we were six or seven he must have his old brother must have been 14

Justin I thought he was cool and he like would walk by something and I was like having a tantrum and he like looked at me like I was gay and I was like oh my God and now Justin thinks I'm lame and he's 14 which is basically a grown-up to me I don't think I ever cried at my friend's house I'll be never having a single time that's fair enough I'm just about you Kyle you ever knock a few tears out of a friend's house no I don't really have any friends

You just lived on like a weird island where it was like, what are we going to do? Well, whatever's in arms reach. Imagination! My childhood was imagination land. Yeah, but that's interesting that he grew up to be a professional Russian. Yeah, absolutely. No, I went to other kids' houses like four times in my life or something like that. What?

That's crazy. I guess you're just so much more rural than us. that doesn't compute because it was... Also, this didn't have any friends. But I went to other kids' houses. You had to be invited, though. I mean, I think over 4,000 times. Yeah.

Yeah, I was constantly at friends' houses and having friends over. Interesting. That was like, that was like the best thing when you were a little kid and you're like, Mom, can Max stay over, can spend the night? And then like, you don't even realize but like both, like, all of your parents are trashed.

And they're like, yeah, it sounds like the plan, buddy. I'll come pick you up in the morning. We're just like, yes. And they're just going to make down into the basement to play more hockey. My parents didn't drink at all. My mom would have like a glass of champagne on New Year's Eve. And my father would be giving her shit about it in July. We were not an alcohol house at all.

I remember like not understanding it, but being like, man, every time Mrs. Johnson comes over, she's like asleep on the couch. Who goes to a friend's house to sleep on the couch? That's crazy. And your mom loves naps, huh? Yeah. That friend of my mom's really like to knock him back. We had two summers.

My parents bought us this tent for the backyard. It was big. It was advertised as a 12-man tent, but you could sleep like six in there. And we took an extension court out there. We had like a portable TV and a box fan. And we stayed in that thing all summer. got to be that like my friends didn't even ask permission to stay in the tent. It was just where they slept at night. I did that too. I just didn't have any friends. So it was just me out there

in the tent. But I, but I, every night that I slept out there, I would, it felt like I had like carte blanche to bring another piece of electronics with me. It was like, you know, because if I, if on day one, I had brought a mini fridge, someone would have said something. Sure. But it's day four. Yeah. They're like, I bet he gets thirsty out there. Hot as hell. What's you doing in there? but by the end I had box fan I had a little mini fridge I had drug like a small TV out there had my video game system like I was living in the backyard it only lasted like a week or something like that it was hot it was very hot I did it by myself a little bit as a grown like I got into offroading in my mid 30s and I hadn't been camping for I don't know 20 years or something like

it'd been a while so I was like I need to make sure I know what I'm doing I read a book on it and set up the tent and stayed out there just to test all my gear. I did it like two or three nights in the same week and Jackie was like, enough, come back to bed. I can't sleep in the yard. You could always come with me.

She's like, yeah, but not, but no. In the truest sense, no. She's been camping with me. She hates it. And it makes her so grumpy. Like, it's funny.

her idea of what camping is like and the reality of camping with her is so different she's like we need to tend with a center divider right she wants to bang we go actual camping no sir no sir don't touch me I'm sweaty you're sweaty I'm not clean like she's not down she's not and I'm like doing everything like trying to I've got a great fire I've made benches out of logs and like I'm setting up a little campsite here Swiss family Robinson out there yes there's just no pleasing her she wants air conditioning like no sweetie just pretend that rock jabbing into your lower back

is of the finest cashmere that's my exact experience camping with girls too is that like I don't want to fuck when I'm all hot and sweaty and they're all hot and sweaty and like nasty from all day like what we ended up doing was well I'm still in our our camps was close enough to like the showers like there was like camp showers and nobody else was camping

there so we just bang in the shower down there um i remember it was like a prison shower it was just like gushing water on you instead of a shower head did you bang in those showers too kyle oh yeah i mean yeah were they clean at least i mean no we're diligent about cleanliness he told us that well like the the facilities were filthy so we kept our our shoes on during the showers are so Yeah, I would need crocs or something to do any sort of sex, sex. I wouldn't want to be barefoot. Well, obviously, I'm not going to have sex without crocs on. Jesus.

Yeah. Every day for me. Hold on. Hang on, baby. Let me put him in sport mode. Hold on. I need to put the strap back around my ankle because I'm about to get wild with it. I'm about to be high stepping and I need the stability.

Yeah. No, I've never, I haven't had a real camping trip since I was so little. And I have fond memories of it, but I am concerned that if I went out and did a real camping trip, it'd be like, oh, I see why my dad never took us on another one. Like, I haven't done it a lot. But my take is that winter camping is far superior to summer camping. And it's what I always say about the weather extremes or the temperature extremes in that you, can just, you can always fix cold. You can fix cold and feel nice and comfy. But there's a level of hot and humidity that there's nothing to do about. And you're going to feel gross and nasty all day. And it's just so much more pleasant to put on another layer or build a bigger fire or buy a better tent than it is to just sweat harder, I guess, missed water on yourself. You know, like none of that. I was going to say, ah, nighttime's always cool. But I usually camp in the mountains. Yeah, down here it's right, and I have never

camped, I don't think, in Atlanta. Well, I guess we remember how muggy it was. Like during the day, you just didn't want to move. Yeah, yeah. I don't have much experience camping in Georgia. I guess I have a little. It's nasty. It's just so goddamn humid here. It's when I,

I had never experienced like complete zero humidity before until I went out to the southwest and I was like, ah, it's not too bad today. And they're like, Kyle, it's, it's 97. right now. It's like, it feels like 82. It feels fine. Like, it's a little warm, but like, this isn't aside from this dehydration headache, everything's okay. I got my Gator A. I got my Gator A. We're good. You got to drink before you're thirsty. It's a thing. Yeah. The bugs there aren't as bad.

Of course. Well, there's different bugs, though. There are more tarantulas and scorpions that big before. That was upsetting for me. But that those are the ones. Rattlesnakes? Like a tarantulas wants to stay away from you. Like, do scorpions? We were fighting them on our hands and stuff in the Grand Canyon. I think they're a little less skittish than the spiders

who don't really want to be around you. I think tarantulas don't, like, they'll get a little territorial. But I'd rather that than just a constant onslaught of mosquitoes and horseshit. Of course. But it's just a different, like, group of bugs that you've got to contend with. I had never seen spiders, scorpions, and rattlesnakes. like that prevalent and just out there. And I was like, how many are?

Because we'd drive it along. We'd see a rattlese that go across the road. You know, slam with the brakes, jump out and go kill it. And, you know, take its rattle. And I was like, how common are these? And he's like, oh, everywhere. We eat up with them out here. And I'm like, what the fuck?

Like, there's not a culling or anything? Oh, done away with that in the 80s. They're just, we're thick with them. And it was just like a constant worry when we were walking around in the Texas brush or like, crawling around doing something for a video or going in a cave. It was like, God, I hope a rattlesnake doesn't bite me

because it's not like in the movies. Like, you're going to, it's going to go all necrotic. You're going to lose a chunk of, like, flesh the size of a plum. And that's best case. Or die. Yeah. Yeah, that's best case scenario. Like, if we make it to the anti-venom store

in the next 30 minutes, like we're still going to get fucked up from this. For the rest of the lifetime. You'd have to get pretty unlucky, right? Like, I think you need to literally step on a rattlesnake by accident for them to attack. They don't like to. attack you. Like, they want you to stay

away. So, like, it is a little hard to get bit. Yeah. They're camouflaged while they're sleeping. You can, that's when you get bit. They look, they're perfectly camouflaged for that like for Texas. Like, they look like Texas. In my area, there's copperheads.

But I don't know my snakes well enough to say that one's a copperhead. But I've been with people who do. So I've seen them. But on my own, I'm like, that's a snake. I can tell. I had to Google what a copperhead looked like. I know we have them here, and I'd have people be like,

at your copperhead! And I'm like, is it, though? I don't think you're herpetologist or anything, Mike. I think you're just yelling shoot. I don't know. We always killed the snakes that we'd find on the farm, except for maybe the black snakes, the rat snakes, as we called them.

But we killed just about everything we saw. Same with the coyotes. Like, we're just getting rid of all the varmints and pests. I just Google copperhead, too. That's an attractive snake. Pretty snake. did you guys ever on like float trips see cotton mouths or anything

because we those are all over the rivers like a tubing trip float yeah like a float trip on a river like in a boat or on a tube or whatever and then you'll see those snakes on the like floating on the top and they have their mouth open real wide and it's all white and so they're cotton mouth snakes

damn no I've been tubing a bunch of times and blissfully unaware that there were any animals out there as well I don't know I don't know what they were, but I've definitely seen exactly what you're talking about, both going down the river, which I've only done like three times ever, but I've seen them there and I've seen them on my dad's farm. Like when we first, when he first bought his farm, it was a swamp and we built dams to like control. We drained the swamp basically and built a dam on the creek that was feeding the swamp and then bulldozed all the nasty swamp shit out of the way and created like a created pastures. but for the first few months as that was happening they were everywhere it was just a giant swamp did you shoot any or all all of them yes yes you just everywhere you went you had your your pistol just killing snakes just like a little 22 pistol ruger yeah how far away could you shoot a snake consistently with that i mean i could shoot the fingers off a mannequin from 30 yards away like that's incredible

that's really really impressive I you know you practice in all the time and some guns just balance really well and have good triggers and good sights and you're just that much better with

and a long-barreled Ruger Mark 3 is one of those guns for me like I can I can pick some I mean we cheat flies all the time a long wheel Ruger Mark 3 is a pistol

yeah yeah I like that pistol I know it I've always wanted one I don't know why I never bought one but I should get one because I want one. Look, if you get one, I promise you get the integrally suppressed one or just get a screw on like Sparrow suppressor or something like that.

God, it's so much better because you could plink around your house. Like you'd build a little, nobody would hear it. Like, you would be in the backyard plinking and she would have no idea inside the house. You could shoot it in the room you're in right now and she would have no idea. It's whisper quiet. It doesn't sound like a gun and it's, you know, you don't have to wear ear protection. If you're shooting at varmets or something, say 50, 100 yards away, if you miss, they're like, that sounded weird.

What was that? They don't hear a bang so they don't run away. It's nice. And, you know, tax stamps are free now. Yeah. Yeah, we have a coyote in the yard. He probably wouldn't. Take a couple 22s to get a coyote, I imagine.

Unless it's okay. If I'm perfect and I shoot it between the eyes or right in the heart or something. When you hunt them, like on purpose, you use a. game caller that plays like a wounded rabbit and then you use a flashlight like a regular maglight or something to find their eyes and then you bring out the one million candle power

you can't see fucking shit light and you hit them with that and then their eyes light up really bright and with a... Then they look like Woody under that dock. The boardwalk, yeah. And for whatever reason I can see you.

Like they don't run when the when they're in that light because they don't understand what's happening because all of a sudden night turned today for them so they just freeze and so with a scoped rifle you can put it right between their eyes because they're these glowing little marks and it's easier than you think

how long do they freeze before they get the picture and long enough to shoot them in the face long enough to shoot them in the face yeah but we I'd use we've used 22 for foxes and coyotes before but usually would take something like an AR-15 like something that was a little more pep

you said you were shooting flies with the 22 that seems like I would lie I'd be like Kyle check it out boom you got him nailed it

got him watch this one behind the head he fucking got him again no we would we would do all sorts of stuff like that like matches and cigarettes the fingers off the mannequins strings strings are a lot easier to shoot

than you think they are because you've only got one axis to deal with you know it's the up and down it's taken care of. It doesn't matter if you hit high or low. You just got to figure out your left and right. And when you have that mindset, it's way easier than you would imagine to shoot a string out of the air at a decent range. As far as you can see it.

I couldn't see a string that far. Yeah. I mean, you need to see the string. Shoot it as far as you can see it. So you're talking about a foot and a half? So yeah, no right about that. Because I've seen that one dude who like throws like a handfuls of aspirin in the air and is like

shoot some all out. Yeah. That's a lot of skill because just to hit it once, even in 100 shots, you've got to be good. Or you've got to at least have some semblance of what you're doing. But, you know, it's not like we're shooting film here. We got a digital camera with a four-hour battery and a terabyte hard drive. And plenty of spare time because we shoot pistols for a living now. So you just sit out there every day until you, like, replicate the shot you want to

hit. Yeah, it's like that, uh, what's that YouTube channel for kids where it's just a bunch of guys who are excited about like throwing basketballs off of, wow, yeah, yeah. They like put basketball hoops at the bottom of dams and then like throw a basketball on there a few months ago. Really? Tom Brady was, what was he doing for him? Throwing footballs. What sort of I feel like that's a stone almost entirely squeezed of blood. Like what else can we see from Tom Brady playing footballs? We know. he's really fucking good at it. That's what he does.

I saw him on Reddit today. Like he's yelling at his team. And I forget the other quarterback's name like Plinkett or something. Joey Plinkett, pretend it's Joey Plinkett. And he's yelling at his team. He's like, I didn't leave my fucking wife and kids to be down to Joey Blinkett at halftime. That's all true.

Damn, that guy, that guy wants to. a win. That's who you want. You want a guy who's like so upset in the prospect of not winning. That's Tom Brady on dude perfect. I actually like Tom Brady went back and looked at what I had seen and they're shooting basketballs and putting and like doing up a mixture

of competitions I think. I play that on mute over here. Yeah. I really value sincerity in YouTubers. I don't know why. On YouTubers I want them to be the guy. I want them to be the who they are. I'll watch Netflix

and never be like, you know what? I think Tom Cruz is pretending. But on YouTube, but on YouTube for some reason, I want them to be a little more genuine and true to who they are. And to see dude perfect go absolutely bonkers

the trillionth time they threw an aspirin in a water bottle or something. I'm like, yeah. I think that's legit. Especially now it's like they're all like 41. It's like, I don't know. I don't think they're playing. I don't think they're playing it up and here's why like they have a film schedule this is a full on business and it has

bottlenecks that you wouldn't imagine so there's a there's it's not just him and his buddy in a camera anymore it's a whole group of guys tom brady is there there's a production studio ready to edit this whenever it's shot and we can't hit the fucking trash can and it's been like it's been like an hour too long now it's been two hours too long and like production costs are adding up and deadlines are approaching. So when we hit that thing, we're happy for a whole other reason. It's not just that the golf ball went in.

It's that, thank God, like, the business can, the bottleneck is a true bottle. I hear you, but I suspect that's the best argument I've ever heard in favor of that. That to me feels like relief, not elation. Yeah, there's a difference. They're going bonkers. They're running in circles.

They're hugging and screaming. And I think that's just part of the show. and I go to YouTube for sincerity. Sometimes people are too mean with it where all the time, I mean, you can't expect not to see this because Mr. Beast is the biggest content guy on the entire internet, so he's going to take heat from all directions at all sides

in all moments, I would guess. Like, if you're him, you're always seeing nonsense. But so many people will be like, look at all these pictures of Mr. Beast smiling. He's never smiling with his eyes. He looks tired. And it's like, he probably is. dude he's probably fucking exhausted that's probably the 15th picture he's had to take that day

and they're like smile with your eyes and he's like oh my god like i'm so stressed out like i'm billionaire under 30 you'll be tuckered out too yeah it's like give the give the guy a break the they're like oh he's actually secretly a bad guy when he went to uh fucking serbia to pay for people's eye surgeries it was done cynically and it's like fuck you like stop it yeah Cut your shit. Like, he's helping people. Let him be. Exactly.

He's documented as healing more people than Christ ever did. But not magically. And so that deducts a lot of points. It might as well be magic. But the surgical procedures he's paying for. I promise you, you show Pontch's pilot a fucking, uh, some of those surgeries that he's paying for. He'd be blown away.

He'd start worshipping those guys in lab coats. Maybe. Yeah. Like making all those people see or bringing water to Africa in those fucking tribal regions and shit why do people care if he turns a profit doing it? You should say what you should be

making it. I give a fuck. He should be making a profit because that means he can keep doing it. He didn't just blow his load and like you hear about people like a woman inherits her husband's vast fortune. She gives it all to like the school of Negro science or whatever and it's like all right well they got that one injection of money like that'll pay for a lot of scholarships and a lot of classrooms, but five years from now, what's going to be happening. Mr. Beast, every fucking week or month or year, like, is more stuff, more stuff, more stuff, because it's

a profit model, because it works, because he's not draining his bank account to heal the sick and make the fucking cripples walk. Like, he's making money while he's doing it. Is he making cripples walk yet? I think he did make cripples walk. There's no way he hasn't. I don't videos. He probably raised the dead. Like, like, every time I see a highlight, it's like, it's a new thing like that. I don't know. Also as just like that guy, you know, as the, uh, the healing of the blind is sometimes a little bit of, a little bit of marketing because I always assumed healing blind people meant like a totally blind person, but most of those people are like, they're worse than me by a lot, but they think of, what's that thing where your vision gets really cloudy? I can't

think of the name of it. Cataract. That's mostly age related, but like there's also, I think it can be really healed. Yes. So with cataract, they make an incision and they pull out the cloudy lens and an artificial lens in there, just a piece of plastic.

And then they're done. That's the whole surgery. It's micro surgery, though. It's on your eye with tiny tools. But it's very simple, it seemingly, that one guy went to North Korea and healed like, I don't know how many people it was.

It looked like, say, 200. It was an entire building full with their eyes bandaged. That was that documentary with Lisa Ling or whatever when she like went into north korea and after as the blind people are like removing their bandages and seeing for the first time and decades some of them that's a very funny name for a woman to have to to make koreans say it's something like that um but that they were all amazing Lisa ling uh oh thank you risa ring that's her name yeah Lisa ling's a hottie like

she's probably like 60 or 60 now but like she was a she looked a lot like loose is a is the cataract surgery like LASIC in that for a lot of people you like need a re-up 15 years later? I don't think so. But I don't know. Either way, he's like setting back the cataract you know, the progression, yeah, better word,

20 years or however long it's been. So that buys them enough time to at least see till they die. A lot of them were old. A lot of them were these like 70 or 80 year olds who hadn't seen in 15 or 20 years and all of a sudden they were seeing for the first time. And the first thing they did, instead of thanking the doctor, I always,

it's like, they're thanking the picture of Kim Jong-un. And it's like, fuck. They're on camera, dude. Like, they've got to play the part, man. I guess so. They're not going to see that footage in North Korea. That's not for North Koreans. That's coming back to us.

They don't get to see that. They never see that. Dude, if I'm in North Korea, I'm fucking hedging my pets with stuff like that. I'm saying, like, hey, big throw up the Kim Jong-un and also thanks to the docs. And, of course, to you, Mr. Beast. She said, I'm going to. mine twice as much salt

in the mines now. You know what? I bet she's right. Who was blind. Oh, she totally mine more salt now. She's going to double her productivity. I bet it wasn't great anyway. Yeah. I bet her co-workers hate her. Are you going to double your productivity so you'll be half

mine, bitch? Oh, now you can see your card is only half full. Oh, Rit or Mish, I gather enough salt for two shakers a day. Yet her eyes fixed. And yet my hand it's all green. Mr. Beast, don't save me.

Yeah, but shout out, Mr. Beast. Keep fixing the blind. But he should do more stuff in America. Oh, I think we're good, you know. No, we got fucking blind people here and stuff. Yeah, but Americans are jerks. Like, I don't, you know, there'd be a bunch of fucking rapid, like, big-titted horrors, like sneaking their way on the show for clouds.

What if Mr. Beast gave a thousand small-titted wins? him in sea cups. Breast implant. That would be hilarious. The first trillion new video on YouTube. I've bought every breast reduction clinic in the country and then it like smash cuts

to this. And the doctors are chained up in my extra in my cash chamber. The doctors that we're doing. That's who we should have Nuremberg style trials for our best production doctors. We're like, why did you do this? Look at how these fucking hangers.

that you ruined and he's like, I was just doing, I was just following orders and then we kill him. Line him up against the wall. Yeah, but seriously, don't do that. Don't spit in God's face. Some people got those Forrest Whitaker titties and they need to be, you know, adjusted and straightened out.

That's not a reduction. That would be an enhancement. No, they got like one that's enormous and they got one that was like a plumbus from fucking Rick and Morty. And you've got to, you got to like balance that out by reducing one and maybe even plumping up another. I see that's fine, but the reducing part shouldn't be allowed. The other teddy should have to be expanded out to the size of the original. I'm on GM breast reduction. No one's reducing

great boobs. They're reducing boobs that needed to be improved. No, I've seen it. I've seen it. I've seen I knew a hot girl that turned in. I didn't know her. She was a sister of somebody new, but she was became a trans man. I did not say I know her. I said a pastor in the bar. knew. And she was getting, she was transitioning into a man. And they were like, yeah, she like, I don't remember, she binds her breasts now. And I get seen a photo before. She had big, nice

titties. And she was a hot chick. And they're like, yeah, she binds them now, but she's going to get them removed. And I remember thinking, like, no, no. You're like, stop her. You're Walter White in the bag of that car. No! That's what I'm doing.

That's not the outside of it. Everyone, I'm driving past abortion clinic protests to get to my protest. I don't know if you all care about the Stranger Things series finale. It's all done now. It's on Netflix. And it's interesting because

I think the kids are supposed it's been four or five seasons. I think maybe five. And those kids are supposed to be like 12. I think in the beginning they're like 12. So now I guess suppose they should be 15. I don't know if exactly four years have passed in the show.

But regardless, a lot of them are in their 20s like Millie Bobby Brown is married woman and she's playing like a little she's playing that little girl 11 or whatever name is I don't remember it's I haven't watched since season one but I was looking at the episode lengths they're all over an hour the see the last episode really two hours and five minutes or something it's a ton of content it's what I wish Game of Thrones should have done like that's hours and hours of content I don't know I've watched all of Stranger things up until this season I haven't seen anything from this year I guess we'll finish it just to see how it ends, but it's difficult. Like, somehow watching an hour of stranger things and paying attention and knowing that you'll need to know this for next week to follow along, it just feels like work when I could tune on burnt peanut and listen to him, steal all the goop from his friends. You guys spend a ton of money on it. It's one of the more expensive shows ever now, because they spent like $60 million an episode.

But I've seen screen grabs of it where the special effects look bad. like, I don't know, I bet a YouTuber could doctor it up and make it look better. And mostly I've just seen the pictures of the cast. They're still have the child haircuts, the 80s child haircuts, but they're grown-ass men now. Like, they're not the little twinky boys and like the tomboy girl. Like, Millie Bobby Brown posts like almost nudes on the internet now. Like her ass is out. When it started, they were like 20 and could kind of pass.

for 14 playing a 12-year-old. Oh, I think they were kids. Some for sure. Barack Obama was president during season one. It's been a... Damn, maybe they weren't that old. Like Kyle said, they're full-fledged adults now. And

it doesn't pass. But whatever. I need to see the end of it, I guess. Yeah. But peanut? Dude, so this guy, he's a Twitch streamer, mostly. He's on YouTube streamer as well. He's, like, super huge.

He's pulling 80, 90,000 people on a stream right now. And, uh, he uh he drinks a lot and he's really reactive and expressive he's good at the game as a matter fact i bet he's very good at the game but because he's reading chat and stuff at the same time he just looks good and uh it's he's hilarious he's so aggressive he's so like he's opinionated he's a peanut on stream he's a burnt peanut and he'll go off about he hates being called a v-tuber I don't understand. I don't know the joke behind it,

but he goes absolutely nuts about it. What'd you say? He is a V-Tuber. Is V-Tuber where you don't show your real face and you pretend you're a cartoon? Yeah. Yeah, but he uses his own eyes and mouth.

He's got the Cone O'Brien thing where it's like, it's very off-puttingly his mouth and eyes on a peanut. Like annoying orange. Yes, but so funny. And he, like, I just watched him recently. He, Goop is his word for the,

loot in this extraction shooter so the point is to kill other people get all the good prizes and then leave with it and uh his friends are all like man it seemed like there was a battle and there's no loot there's no goop and he's like yeah yeah and they're like i mean did we kill like nine people could have been where where are the bodies and he's over encumbered so his person's like super slow and they're like, dude, why are you walking like that? I'm trying to solve the same mystery you all are. I don't know.

You're all trying to find the guy who did this. But it's so funny. This guy's a hot dog too. When he plays the game, he looks kind of to the side and when he reads chat, he looks forward, but he knows what he's doing. So he's like, I don't know where the group is either.

He goes back to playing. Why does he throw his face? He's got to pop that face out there for the peeps. I think, dude, when you, like, roll a 20 on the die, don't re-roll it. My suspicion is he's heavy. I don't think you can be really fitness-oriented and drink as much as him. So maybe the peanut thing, if you work in entertainment, is perfect. Is that a bit of an act, too?

Like, is he, I guess you only know from his dreams. Yeah, I'm fooled. Plus, you can see, you know, the glass go to the... I don't know what's in the glass, but he doesn't call it alcohol. It's tequila, but he calls it silly sauce or something like that. When you kill people in this game, they don't instantly die. Instead, they crawl around for a little while. And sometimes they beg for their life and he plays into that for a while.

Like, you know, oh, Mr. Silly, you know, why should I spare you? I'm a big fan. I'm a big fan. that's not enough or when it goes in reverse the rules completely change like gentlemen gentlemen it's me your favorite streamer and he gets revived a lot people beat him and then they bring them back to life just so they can play like the rest of the round with him he's probably way better at the game than you're seeing between the chat reading and if he's being a ton of silly juice which is like tequila is real alcohol like that's like he's

I like to play yeah I haven't done it a lot over a year or over hours I really like like like it was a what I was talking to midi the other day and he was like yeah those were the dark days like when I was on probation awaiting trial and or maybe even I'd already been sentenced and I'm awaiting prison I was drinking a lot and we were playing I think it was cod blackout or war zone I don't remember which war zone or something and he's like yeah those were dark days. I remember that and I remember I was completely blitzed just very very drunk and we had won the initial fight. Everybody drops down and you fight the people you drop near and then if you win

then you get all the loot in your little section of the map and you get equipped cop in a vehicle and then you head toward the center and that's being repeated all around the map. Is this PubG? Did you say this was actually call of duty. It was a it was a battle royale for call of duty called a war zone I think and and I'm like ah I got a helicopter everybody hop in and I'm just fucking fucking just wasted flying this helicopter and I saw a bridge coming up and I'm like we're going under that bridge and I'm right into that motherfucker just everybody's laying on the ground bleeding dying and there's nobody to revive us and I'm so sorry so sorry let us hold out if you knew what I was imagining it would have been sick so cool it was so cool in my mind I was going to right under

So I like drinking and playing, but it's just not, alcohol is just so bad for you. Like, it's just, it's just so bad for you and it makes you fat and it makes you worse and expensive. That's the worst part. What's that? It makes you worse. It makes you worse. It games. Yeah.

But it makes the games more fun. Whereas we, yeah, but I feel like with, like, I could be really, really stoned and still be almost as good as the sober version of me playing like, A.O. too, like a highly technical game. Some games even better. But if I were, if I'm like drunk, if I'm trashed, the version of me is so much worse than the sober and even the high version. Like, it's not even close. Like, because I'm just going to be, I'll be deciding real time. Like, I don't want to push the deer in. I don't want to do this thing. That's kind of annoying. I'll just have a slower up time. It gives a fuck. It'll be fine. Like, I just wouldn't play the game the right way. A fast pace game for sure.

But slower pace it is, the more better alcohol is with it. Like, If you're just looting in Tarkov on a rainy night, it's great to be blitzed. It's a little boring anyway. It's nice to be a little blitzed. I like that. Single player games are fun to play drunk. Like the times I've played oblivion drunk have always been fun because then you're like all in where it's like, my guy can jump so fucking high. When I'm drunk, I'm really social.

So I kind of want to be with the boys like celebrating a win that we all earn together. That's why I've always liked the battle royale stuff is because we get that opportunity. you to work together for a big win over and over and over. And it always is a big win. You took out 25 other teams or you placed higher than 25 other teams at least. I think I'm going to play some dark tide tonight. Middy's wanting to play that. I think I'm going to hop on there.

Yeah, I'll say this. Larry the Strong, he's the one that helped me play Tarkoff and get me going. He did not prepare me for the real world. Like in this new game we're playing, it's similar. Red lockers, there's no limit to how good the loot can be in a red locker. So I'll go with my friend. There's two of us. I opened the door.

He darts straight for the red locker. There's two red lockers. There's two of us. You understand what's going to happen, right? I shut the door behind us. He's on locker number two. It's like, Mother Trucker. You took both lockers, huh?

Well, I was keeping us safe operating the doors. You took, Larry's the opposite. Larry's like, hey, Woody, you want to trade backpacks? The answer to that is yes. You want to trade. I don't know what's in his backpack. My backpack may have good stuff in it. Larry's not giving you his backpack because there's good stuff in it.

It's because there's great stuff in it. He is, and I'm like getting on my feet, you know, once you're a little wealthier and you stop having these money sinks, then, you know, it's easier to accumulate money and, you know, buying cases and stuff like that. So now that I'm in the real world fighting for all the goop that I bring home, Larry, he made me soft. I blame you. See, no, I just agree, because that's loot etiquette. And it's,

we maintain a very good loot etiquette. And just gameplay etiquette. Depending on the game, there's all sorts of different rules in in, in extract or battle royals, especially mid to late round, when you

kill a guy, he's got like 15 minutes of loot on him. Like, he's got good stuff. Like, he might have a very good scope or he's got a good ammo. And it's like, if you kill that guy, that's your guy. You are now in control of taking whatever you want, and then

you're like, all right, if anybody wants scraps, there's some 5, 5,56 ammo, there's a light shield, there's this, that, and the other. Like, anyone who breaks there, I don't play with those people. Just as a joke in the battlefield battle royale recently, like my buddy, there's a, you can play as different classes.

There's multiple classes you can play as, and they each give you buffs and bonuses and opportunities. But if you play as an engineer, you get a welding torch that you can use to break into these vaults or safes that are on the map, you're the only person who can open them. You grind your way in. And, like, my buddy was an engineer, he's,

and then pops open. I just go, grab, grab, grab, grab, grab, grab all the fucking loot and run away. Like, that's bad loot etiquette. You can't have you having that. I don't like that, especially when we, if we've got a keyed room, like in Tarkov, and I turn this expensive key, and then my whole team floods in and starts just rifling through everything. I'm like, what fuck are you all doing?

I'm going to go play solo. I'm not putting up with this. Yeah, low key. I share keys with my friends. And in Arc Raiders, it's really easy to be wealthy. So it's not quite as like, it's easier to share. But I'm also like, oh, I'm solar right now. So if I use this key, I get everything.

That's kind of nice, you know, especially given that sometimes people loot as fast as they can. In Tarkov, if you turn a key, I don't touch anything. play, I'm watching the door. Like, I'm not going in the room. I'm going to, I'm going to guard the hallway so we don't get flanked. Like, like, everybody asked the pinata just broke. We would like, the guy who spent the key, because he don't get to use it more than once

if you're not a player, the guy who spent the key gets first choice. If there's any leftovers, things he didn't want to carry, or maybe guns that just don't click with him, he'll leave him behind for you. Quest items and be distributed, but if it's your key, it's your room, that's how I like to play. if it plays anybody any way different, I don't play with them. Yeah. But I need a new game. I'm all burned out on our creators, I think.

If they had new content, I'll come right back. That was quick. Well, it's... You were grinding hard, though, so that's fair. The game's $40, though. So... Yeah, you guys already got your money's worth. I have no complaints about the game, like, not being as deep as Tarkov,

because that's the point of this game, is that it's Tarkov for dads, or it's Tarkov for people with jobs, or Tarkov with people lives. I got that from the outset from the get-go. I knew it wasn't going to be a game that required 1,500 hours just to get your beak wet. That's what Tarkov is. Once you get about 1,500 in, you're like, all right, I know the maps. I know that that's good ammo just by looking at it, and I know which guns, and I know what to do at level 1. You know, I know right away, like, oh, got to talk to prapper.

I got to go in the woods and get that fucking note from under the tree stand. You know these things after you've got, but you're not good yet. you're not knowledgeable yet like it's it's so goddamn deep you might never get good you might never yeah because tarcoff doesn't provide enough gun fights you need to enter tarcoff already being a good

good shooter player and then you can become a good tarcoff player well that's where arena comes in I don't know if you ever played tarcoff arena but it's a very fast pace CQB fight fight fight fight I've seen it on YouTube like no downtime yeah so you get you get

your licks in there I'll play a couple games that, then jump into Tarkov, and I'm, you know, as good as I'm going to be. That's a spot where a cod-like game, you know, it helps you get good fast. How many gunfights do you get into every 10 minutes in cod? 15 to 40, right? Something like that. When me and Middy switched from Battlefield to Arc Raiders, that was the situation, because we had been playing hours of battlefield all day, and it's just gunfight, gunfight, aim for the head, aim for the head, aim for the head. And then we jump in Art Raiders, and it's like, I don't think our competition has been training like we have.

You went some gunfights for your life. Exended man is such a big deal. Because if you don't have an extended mag, I think, I swear I've had situations where every shot hit and they didn't go down. And it's like, 20-round Stitcher won't kill a guy. Okay, yeah. But you put an extended mag on there and you can down a guy in one magazine and not reloading during the fight is so huge. Yeah, that's a big break point going from the 20 to 25 on the Stitcher. I still say the Stitcher fully loaded out is like the goat PVP gun for CQB.

I know the shotgun's really good, but you got to be close. The shotgun has a really high skill limit. Like if you could roll while you work the cycle, cycle the shotgun that's what I'm going for. Pump it is what I guess was trying to say. If you can roll during the pump, then you have these like eye frames while they're in the downtime. Then your opponent has to re-ame and there's some verticality to the game, which everybody's bad at. So if you're really good at that,

shotgun's really good. I'm medium at it. I've been practicing. Yeah. If I can get three shots off, I'm happy. If I can, like, roll into the enemy team

and get one and then roll again and get another, like not killing people, but just getting the shots off because I'm just, in my head, I'm just thinking of my shots as amounts of their HP that are gone

and now my teammates can come in and, like, sweep them up. There's a thing you can slide through a doorway, shoot, and then roll back where you came from. Yeah. And I practice that solo a lot.

And in a few, gunfights I've been able to employ it and my ego's never been larger. I haven't really been gaming much though. I've been watching that TV show with Claire Danes I talked about called Homeland. I got to recommend Homeland. Anybody out there who just wants like a standard like spy thriller TV show with really high production values, everything looks good, the guns look good. They travel the world. They film in Germany and Russia and Afghanistan and Iraq and lots in new york it's great and it's not too fantastical you get this i like spycraft i like the like code signals and and and dead drops and all that stuff anyway so there's always like a double

agent we've got to find or the the russians are trying to like mess with our president or something like that's going on i'm in the eighth season there are eight seasons i'm almost done with this but i gotta say it's really fucking good i had heard about it getting awards through the years i think it won a bunch of Emmys. I think it was on Showtime, maybe, or I think it was on Showtime, but I'd never watched it. It's good. It's really good. The thing about it is, Claire Dane's character has bipolar, and so that's a constant problem for her, as she has a CIA spy who occasionally goes absolutely insane. But when she stops taking her meds, she's like, when I stop taking my meds, I see connections everywhere. And most of them are

bullshit, but some of them aren't. And it allows her to like see connections that other people can't. So she'll go off the meds and figure out the whole plot. but now she's insane and they're having to like forcibly give her her meds now to like get her to be a normal person again because she's an awful human being when she's off her meds

and then that Winters guy the redheaded guy from Band of Brothers he's a main character for the first two maybe three seasons or something like that and like one of your favorite things about shows people die all the time main characters are getting

fucking killed and it's a bummer it's like fuck I like that guy that's good That sells it to me a lot. I hate plot armor. It's one of my biggest issues with John Snow's character, the thickest plot armor to have ever been applied to anyone ever. Also, he's a 5-7.

Come on. King of the North? I don't think so. What do you guys think? Have you been following Pete Hague-Seth and his drama at all? I know all about it. I watched the entire briefing today. I've been watching YouTube videos talking about, you know,

how it's a war crime and how it's always been punishable by death what he ordered to be done. I heard his weak ass excuse today. I also saw Trump today like in the same meeting say we're going to start hitting ground targets in Venezuela. Where?

What? In Venezuela? I didn't know. He didn't tell us which ground target. He didn't mention where. We'll see. I'm pretty convinced the whole anti-drug thing is bullshit.

Right? Like he just pardoned that guy from Honduras. who said, you know, it was a 10-year trial, started under the previous Trump administration. They found him guilty. He's quoted as saying things like, I'm going to shove cocaine up the noses of those gringoes. They have the money transfers. Like, he was definitely all about drugs and selling them to Americans. And Trump pardoned him.

Trump doesn't actually care about drugs. But it's a thing he says to justify what he does. That's how he justified tariffs on Canada originally, right? All the fent and all the Canada's shipping us, which was horseshit. So I'm not saying there's no drugs in Venezuela, not far from it. I'm just saying, what's his actual motivation? Because he doesn't give a flying fuck about drugs. It's to remove Maduro.

And it has to do with oil and the global use of the dollar to buy oil. And Venezuela and OPEC and Iran. and Russia. That's what it all it's all it's a big ball of that and his excuse and what he's trying to do by keeping I think what he's trying to do by upping the anti over and over is to convince either the cartels in Venezuela or the the people right around Maduro to remove him for him. Uh-huh. That makes sense. I'm fucking with their business and fucking with their shit and I'm sure there's back channel CIA stuff going on where they're saying you know this at all stop if we just didn't

have that Maduro guy. We're really concerned with him. I guarantee that's what's happening. I know Trump authorized CIA to go in there, like weeks and months ago, publicly. And, like, Maduro had claimed he had caught CIA, not personnel, but, like, contacts, like, someone's day was, like, working. Well, I'm sure he did. Yeah, I'm sure we're there doing it. But what he did the other day, and it is a war crime, like, historically, is after they hit the boat, and this is Heggseth, Hegseth has made it so that it's his direct orders before these boats get hit,

whether that's so that he can take credit for them or take responsibility for them. Well, I guess he just proved because he's been taking credit for them, but now that it's time to take responsibility for what he did, he's like, well, the commander is actually the guy. I actually stepped away, and the commander gave the final, okay, well, that's not what you were saying before, because what they did is they blew up this boat full of people, and two of them were clinging to wreckage alive,

and he said, hit him again. And you can't do that. There was a Japanese U-boat captain who did that to some, I think there were Greek sailors. They had sunk a Greek boat during World War II, and they machine-gunned the survivors in the water because they maybe didn't want their position to be known, given away by these survivors.

They were all tried for war crimes, not just the commander, but the men who had carried it out. Three of them were, I think, hung. Either hung or firing squad. It would have been firing squad. Yeah, Kyle's probably heard the same thing I have. But like that clinging to the boat is the classic example of when shooting a combatant is a war crime. So if I blow up the building you're in and then you come rushing out of that building, I can still shoot, right?

Because you're still a threat. Like there's no real saying that the people rushing out of that blown up building are all there to surrender and say, I'm done. That might not be the case. But people clinging to wreckage in the water are absolutely not in the fight anymore. And you can't shoot them. but he did. So, and it, they're, you're muted by the way, Kyle. And, uh, you know, the whole idea that their enemy combatants is kind of perilous in the first place. This is a criminal thing that they're doing. What I said was how do you commit a war crime when there's no war,

you know, that's an odd situation. And I understand the counterargument. I saw people saying, oh, heaven forbid, like who's looking out for the, for the cartel? We have to, we have the poor cartel is being mistreated but it's about the human beings again and then people point out um have you heard of the global war on terror no no it would like they're they're human beings but so are the thousands of people thousands of americans that will die hundreds of thousands of things about that is of fentanyl and the 100 000 here is the number i just i don't give a fuck about they're human beings but they're criminals right if i declare war on mugging and then just parachute in the 82nd airborne to put a bullet between in the eyes of anyone who I think might be a mugger.

I think most guys would be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, how about a little due process here? How about a trial? How about, you know, we, if they did it mid-mugging, we'd be okay. Well, no, because they designated them a terror organization. So now they're able to use all that. They designated Antifa a terror organization. Can we just pop a bullet in between their eyes? Some ski college kids?

Or did they just talk about it big? Because I'd let me see. Did they even actually make Antifa a terror group? Or did they just do what they classically? love to do as Republicans, which is talk really big, do nothing, and certainly don't follow through. I mean, like, designation of international cartels, terrorist organizations, is that, the designated global terrorists.

Nothing really came with Charlie Kirk getting killed. Yeah, they officially, yeah, as of February, um, the U.S. government officially designated Trinday, Aragua as a foreign terrorist organization. Um, and I believe, I'm reading the executive order on a Tifa. If an executive order is real, then yeah, they did. That's what I mean is I thought it was just an executive order, like a little bloistering, a little bloviating. They officially made them a terrorist organization. But yeah, Trenda, Aragua, those groups can get fucked.

Yeah, designated them terrorists and then don't let them bring drugs here. Well, I mean, another thing is like, do we know they're just shooting, look, the boats they're blowing up are clearly smuggling drugs. They have three outboard motors. They are screaming across the ocean. and you can see square packages filling the belly of the boat. They're clearly smuggling drugs to the United States.

I think arguing against that is like what do you think you're doing then? You think they're fishing? What do you think those packages are full of? Who puts three outboard motors on their boat? Sometimes I just try to go for the world's fastest fish. Just the worst fishermen of all time. Yeah, that's never caught anything.

At least the footage I've seen, they're clearly fishermen. Now, I've heard they've blown up like 75 boats and I've seen like four. Oh, I did say it backwards. I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah. The ones I look are clearly not fishermen. Could they be pleasure boaters?

I don't think so. That's not the cigarette I'm used to seeing either. Like either they have packages like Kyle said or they've sort of covered what's in it, which is also suspicious. But they don't look like rich people on cigarette boats that I grew up looking at. And, of course, like, they love to twist things, but one of them was in a submarine. They were like, and they keep making that joke whenever the question comes. Well, that's where the fish are.

Not many people fish in a submarine. Oh, and someone had said that, sir, that's actually most of the fish in the ocean are under the water. But I'm not here to say they're innocent or they're not drug runners or whatever. To say it's going to America, I mean, maybe, certainly some of it. But these boats are like light years away from reaching America. I don't understand why they need to run things in super fast boats from Venezuela to somewhere 30 miles away in Venezuela. I don't get that part. I think they're going from Venezuela to islands in the Caribbean.

And I think that each step of the way, they're being handed off and a bit of the profit is spilling. They're not just going one shot from Venezuela to the U.S. They're dropping it off somewhere in the Caribbean. They're intermediaries. The issue is you can't just declare a. crime to be terrorism and start killing. I think you can. I'm okay with I'm okay with them blowing the boats up. That seems 100% legal once they've designated them a terrorist organization. And it is a fact that I look at the stats today. In 2024, I think 107,000 Americans died of drug

overdose. And the vast majority of that was fentanyl. So you can make a strong case that they are pumping poison into our country that kills. I don't think fentanyl comes from Venezuela. I heard it on YouTube. That's why they're doing this. Well, I'm only as good as my source. Let me see. Yeah, fentanyl, but you're right, Kyle. Like, they, there is, that's the case that, like, is most, that resonates most with me is like, yeah, I really, I have a hard time finding pity for fentanyl smugglers getting blown up in the... Or cocaine smugglers. I don't, I don't care where there's drug choices.

I was, like, at this point, millions of Americans over the past decade have died from this. And it's, like, we are... If it's cocaine, I'm fine with that, too. Like, like, yeah, yeah, of course. Like, don't bring drugs here. don't bring your illegal illicit drugs that are cut with things that kill people it's cocaine like don't do that yeah and the reason that cocaine deaths have been up is because they're it's cheapened with fentanyl like people having cocaine get it's just you should know it's not fentanyl

like i know fentanyl is the most deadly you know it's a big issue it's cocaine well but it's not even saying it's cocaine isn't totally true because that it's we know that they cut it with Fent. Somewhere down the line perhaps it gets cut with Fent. Like I hear you. Why would you do that? Why would you? Because Fent is only cocaine. But you think they just used cocaine and you've done opiates before. They're completely different.

On's an upper, one's a downer. How do you cut an upper with a downer? Nobody's doing that. I mean, no, no, no. No, it's actually one of the most common things. It's called the speedball that's where you mix cocaine and heroin. Yeah, it's like one of the most common hard drugs to use. I've heard of a speedball. Yeah. I don't, I don't.

So people, I don't have any experience with opiates. I've done cocaine a handful of times. I didn't get, I didn't get fented up. It feels like a completely different experience. Like, like, because fentanyl is to put me to, to deal with extreme pain and put me under for surgery. And cocaine is to fucking, dun, dun, dun, don't know, don't, don't, don't know. The speedball is cocaine and it said heroin, but we all know fentanyl and heroin are kind of compared. And he had an opiate up there, but like that, that's super common.

Like, that's, I bet. Look, again, I don't know anything about speed balls, but I bet the whole point. is that like you go down with the the the the the the heroin and then you come back up with the with the with the cocaine I just don't know about mixing them together I don't think you're gonna if I'm snort if I'm doing cocaine and I get some fentanyl it I don't think that's what I was going for yeah what I see with it all is they're being pressed into pills they're they like like that's how fentanyl is is taken distributed bought and used in the US from my experience I always see it as pills it's always pills like cocaine and heroin which is kind of mixed with fentanyl nowadays are on that careful it's going to seem cool the first time it's going and then it's like it gets in there it gets into your brain it makes you want it again and it they're devious and how they become a problem in your life yeah yeah yeah stay away from hard drugs kids scary stuff it's called a speedball people sounds good sounds like something that's that sounds like an

I was thinking the way it would work is that the heroin made the come down off of Coke less extreme, but I also don't know how long fentanyl lasts in your system compared to cocaine. Cocaine is notoriously short. I know that. So maybe it just... So the combination sends a conflicting push-pull signal to the central nervous system, putting immense strain on the heart and respiratory systems. I was looking for why this is good I'm not sold so Kyle

I think nothing's going to happen to Hegseth I think that only losing teams are ever charged with war crimes believe it or not so unless we lose

the war to Venezuela nothing's going to happen yeah could be there's a I don't know if you know there's a bipartisan commission from the Senate

looking into these war crimes and apparently Pete Hegseth is on tape ordering the war crimes. Washington posted a big report about it. It's the story of the week. Pete Hagseth caught on tape ordering war crimes, which were then committed. The Trump administration has changed their story from like, this never happened to this, you know, you misunderstand what happened, to it was this admiral we just promoted who actually did it, not Pete Hegseth. That's how their excuses have morphed. There is an admiral that stepped down like a month ago

or something like that. And now in retrospect, we realized it was like the day that Pete Hegseth ordered war crimes. He's like, fuck it, I'm out.

And is that, are those things related? Obeying that order is a crime. Yeah. Obeying an illegal order is a crime. Do you think this will still be a big to do in a week, two weeks a month?

I think this seems like it should be. You know, we shouldn't be the war crime country. And we, we were more. we were more honest about this stuff if we were like look these guys are trading oil and non-USD or

you know we're after this guy but he's always when Canada needs tariffs because of fentanyl like they always lie about their actual motives and I hate that sure um but uh yeah anyway I think we shouldn't do such bad things all the time I don't even see it as a bad thing to bomb

the drug smugglers like and I and many people in the country are going to agree like I don't give a fuck about people whose job is to bring things that kill Americans getting blown up. I don't care. Like, good. And if he's lying, and

obviously he is, because there's ulterior motives about the USDA and the oil and everything, if a couple of ships of fentanyl smugglers or whatever get blown up, then a happy accident. There we go. There's at least something positive before he drags us into some I don't like the military

executing on the spot for criminal activity. if they're like exactly that to muggers if they're a direct to Americans then yeah 100% and who's designated Antifa is terrorists

and their skinny little college kids acting rambitious and they should expect to get drone struck if they go out in the desert I'm not kidding like if Antifa were to be out

in the fucking like the college be careful this year burning man guys like they're gonna XF's going to see that from a satellite somewhere and fucking drone strike you guys I look, I feel like we extended that honorable rights, honorable rules of war to the Japanese and the Nazis

by the millions that we captured and like took care of and fed and gave the exact same thing. We knew. We fed our teachers. Japan or our soldiers. Millions of non-combatants, right? Hundreds of thousands of non-combatants. So the Germans treated the POW. I mean, I can go on about that for a while.

There was a, there was very good reasons for fire. The nuke's pale in comparison to the firebombing of Tokyo. that took place like a month before. Like there's more people killed in that than that. And they burned those people alive. They created a firestorm on purpose. But what you've got to understand about the Japanese war economy is that it wasn't these,

it wasn't like Germany where they had a big central factories. Like, oh yeah, that's the factory where they make the tank treads. That's not what they did. They had hundreds and thousands of little workshops scattered throughout their cities. Everybody was pitching in. That's where the parts and the material was coming from.

So they just burnt the whole fucking city. But again, if we had seen like a little nukeed child down there waving a white flag you wouldn't have said we got another one of those nukes in the tank is that exactly what we did we went that was a different city

we went to get and again you're talking about 75 years we're talking about a couple of guys going please let me give fentanyl all two children but this is again the Japanese wanted to conquer us and enslave us so much worse group of people Nazis again much worse group of people. I look much more highly

upon fentanyl smugglers than I do the actual World War II Nazis which we extended all these things to. And the biggest difference is it's the 21st century and we're a superpower. So we're not lobbing bombs over the horizon. We're hovering above them with thermal

optics. They have no defense. They have no way to respond. They are fish in a barrel and then once we've blown their boats up and they're now floating burn victims begging for help, it's completely within our power to just ride up to them and drag them into our boat and take them

captive. And then maybe get some information, you know? Maybe find out. They should have just left. They should just let them swim back. I think they're hundreds of miles away. Oh, no. Oh, no. It'll stick. I would be much more okay with like leaving them there

than that extra stride. Now that all feels performative. Pick them up. Pick them out of the water. Because that's what you'd want done for you. The Japanese wouldn't be selling. I wouldn't be run our sailors over, then machine gunned them with their boats. I wouldn't be selling fentanyl to people. Yeah, the Japanese, like Kyle said, they didn't take prisoners.

They were truly awful. I don't know how we treated the Japanese that we reciprocated at all. But I know that in Germany, they treated American POWs pretty well. And they did it because they wanted their soldiers to be treated pretty well. And it worked out like that. I heard about it today. So we fed the Germans the exact same amount of calories. as we fed our troops, that's the law.

And they were, there are these, like, they have the diaries of German prisoners that were in American POW camps, and they're hoarding food, and they're like, double butter today. This is a sign that their economy is cracked. This is the last hurrah, there'll be no butter in tomorrow.

And then the next entry, butter again, twice as much. Like, we had a butter surplus, and we're getting them like double pads of butter. These guys have been living on It was like three ounces of bread And four ounces of canned meat a day or something Like it's something awful

But their reactions to the American Like abundance in the POWW camp Is great to read But yeah, I don't know Don't commit war crimes Especially against like Venezuelans I just don't commit war crimes Pick them up

We're right there We've got You tell me you'd have a boat in the area I bet you had 50 You know They steal Team 6 to target them? Just don't be evil. I don't want to be evil.

We know millions of people have died from it. And it's, and they're bringing the- You're stuck on the fentanyl thing, but it's cocaine. Any amount of drugs, any illicit drugs that's going to kill people, that's going to eventually be chopped up with other things that are dangerous. And then people trying to have a fun night out with their friends, end up ODing and family destroyed, lives ruined. like no we we no enough no trial huh no trial for these they're bringing a bunch of fentanyl here

and they're with a cartel fuck them i just don't think death penalty for everything is the right call definitely you have a trial reasonable at least you have a trial at least have a little due process sure like when we blew that boat up for all you if there's five guys in that boat for all we know one of them's just a long for the ride he might be a fucking prisoner he might be somebody's little kid. Why don't we go pick him up and see who it is? And if it's the devil, we'll put him on trial and kill him. And if it's little Oscar who thought he was going on a fishing ride. Stop it. What do you? Stop it. You think it's little Oscar out there, dude? This is... I don't know and you don't either because we blew him the fuck up in the water while they were begging.

Well, you think there's spending hundreds of thousands of dollars of drugs, millions of dollars of drugs in a boat with three outboard motors. And they put some eight-year-old kid who's like, but I just want to pick the banana. And they throw him on the boat. Because we didn't check. We fired another $500,000 missile at him instead? I think we do know. How do we know? You said earlier it was on. You said earlier.

You said earlier. We don't know their backstories. We don't know anything. We just know he was on the boat. We know enough about their backstory and that they're driving a boat with fentanyl and what if they were forced to? What if their family's been held hostage? Do you think this is a bit, you think everybody's clamoring to be the guy who drive?

This has been weeks of strikes. They know about the strikes. Do you think these people are clamoring to be in that boat? How do we know their family is not being held hostage, being tortured? We don't know. And I'm not making excuses for them. I'm saying, we don't know the answers because we didn't ask the questions because we don't care about the answers. And we want to make conclusions on TV to hide our pedophilia.

How about an equally serious question? What if one of them is a secret genius who in his mind has the algorithm that could provide infinite energy and we just blew them up? Holy Toledo. Did we, did you even consider it? What do you think is more likely? I don't know what you're even talking about right now. I'm making fun of the fact that you're like, you're doing a bunch of fan fiction about, but no, I'm telling you that we don't know who's there.

We don't know why they're there. We just blowing them up. 10 minutes ago, you said they were obviously drug runners 10 minutes ago. They are obviously running drugs, but it's a boat full of people. I don't know who's there. I'm looking at him for a thermal optic from fucking the sky. Why don't you want to ask? Why is it so important that they die on the spot and sink to the bottom?

Oh, I think it's fine if you want to go and pick them up and like... I do, because then we avoid being war criminals. It's, I don't know why... The war criminal thing just doesn't seem serious. Like, it's blowing up a drug runner, and now they're acting like, oh, this is the big... We just had, like, illegal wars for decades and really... Our crimes are bigger than there. Whose water are you carrying?

You didn't order the strike. It's okay. Like, when I'm telling you that these the laws... I'm telling you my honest opinion, which I want to do the Nazis and to... to the Japanese empire, and you're like, drug runners are worse. They were going to conquer us. They were killing tens of millions of people. They were the worst, and we extended these rules of war to them.

Why are fentanyl, not even fentanyl, apparently, why are cocaine smuggers, a drug which you enjoy? Why are they deserving of being treated worse than Nazis and Peel Japanese? Why? Why? Why do they have to get it so rough? And why? Do you think I'd be weeping if we were, like, mean to that? I don't cry over the... I'm not asking about whether you will weep or not.

I'm asking you why I'm telling you is the same thing. More harshly than we did the Nazis and the Imperial Japanese during World War II, a conflict that is clearly good versus evil. I, we talked about this yesterday in chat where I said, I don't give a fuck if you want to pick them up. Go for it. It's fine. I'm not going to be like, they should have killed them. My position is if those guys do get blown up, I don't care. I don't care.

And a lot of this talk about, oh, it's war. crimes, it seems like pearl clutching. It seems like, oh, like this is like such a huge deal that these two people got blown up holding onto wood while I'm driven by a sense of right and wrong. Yeah. And I just line up differently. Let me finish my thought. I think these guys are likely to be criminals, right? They're likely to be mules who move drugs. And to just put a bullet between their eyes right on the spot. I'm like, well, shucks, what's next? Is it mother? Muggers? Is it Antifa children burning a flag? Like, they're all criminals. Why would muggers be a bad example of like getting rid of someone like locking them up right away or? Oh, we're not locking them up.

We're shooting them. And if they move, we shoot them again, right? And we're using the United States. Muggers are a bad example because if you had a mugger in it, blow the entire car up, if I'm being. If I'm being mugged and some army guy comes around the corner and shoots the guy holding me at gunpoint, I will be very pleased. If you have some people, people going around and you're like, hey, this guy looks like a mugger. Let's lock it. That's not what he's talking about. He's talking about finding the, you like, you identify the mugger. You see him in his boat and then you blow the boat up and kill him while he's cleaning to the wreckage. No. The difference is mugging, you're using ethereally saying that person could be a mugger. I chose them down because it's a crime, right? These are not enemy combatants.

They're just bad guys. They're criminals. And when you start making a justified case of, hey, anyone who's a criminal gets executed on the spot with no due process. That's how we operate. Just murder is the answer to crime. Then you become worse than the criminal. This mugger was after your wallet. In incarceration is worse than a, no, if you, if you hold someone at gunpoint, you are committing a violent crime. Now you turn them into, you know, gun wielding, murdering mothers. How else are they going to mug you, if not with a weapon, just threaten your life with like punching you because they don't really do that they threaten people

with a beating you know for in that easily in America they probably have weapons but getting past like the mugger thing like my whole thing is why are we going to kill on site drug smugglers when again we treated the Nazis and the

Japanese under the rules of war the rules that we want applied to us when the shoe is on the other foot and it often is like why why can't we all why can't there be a standard they're human beings even the worst human beings are still human beings they don't deserve to be executed like animals while they're burned victims in the ocean it's like they did bad things all right well you got them pretty good no now now they have to

die well you don't have to kill them they're no longer a threat we could actually capture question and maybe they know the boat fucking schedules like maybe they have seems like we know the boat schedules I don't think we do I think we're just up there like patrolling the entire fucking Caribbean with the biggest Navy that's ever been assembled I think we're spending

we've got a trillion dollar Navy out there I don't see it's not very surprised and I don't see the connection between World War II and this It's murder and if there's any justice Hegsef and anyone else down the chain of command should be tried and the punishment's death

I mean so Kyle that's an interesting one for me too like the guy that pulled the trigger I picture in an Apache helicopter or something like that following orders I'm like man do I have any sympathy for that guy who's really in a sympathy it's about whether you're prepared

to murder someone it's a crime to obey illegal orders yes that's what I'm saying with the Japanese thing Japanese commander said fire on those Greek sailors who were drowning in the water the men who fired also were found guilty and shot against a wall

like it's not a it's not an isolated event this is not how are you I'm not debating as a matter of law I'm not debating what Kyle said is a matter of law I'm just looking in my own heart like how would I do it and I have much more sympathy and understanding for the guy that pulled the trigger than the guy who told him to pull the trigger like you know it's like man I live in this okay but now you're back to the law again I'm in my own sense of right and wrong like I'm putting myself in their position if I'm in the military. And I've been told to obey orders, lawful orders, all this time. And then an unlawful one slips through and I follow it. It's like, fuck, I was supposed to filter Pete Higgseth's orders. You're kind of

just like you get in an army man mode, I would guess, where it's just like, what's the next instruction? What's the next thing? And you just kind of absentmindedly do that. And not to poke at any army guys, they are made fun of sometimes for being a little small. Well, this ain't the army.

You know, these guys scored pretty high on their test. With this, if I were in charge of this whole operation, I would have bombed the boat initially the way they did. And then just from a reasonable point of view, I feel like I would have been like, all right, now go nab those guys. Get them. Because they might know something. That just seems like operational intelligence, like deciding you want to grab them. And so I'm not sad. I'm not sad that he blew them up. I don't mules in some scenarios like like i i don't know who was on that boat none of us do and and that's the problem that's my biggest problem with this is we never will because we blew them the fuck up but people are forced to be drug mules i know i hear about like women forced to swallow like

all those condoms of drugs and they've got like got their kid and you know holding them all the time sure i mean we have scanning technology now you if once you've got them you can get what's a good what's a good like what do you think would be good like you we just do the initial on the boats we blow them up and then we nab the guys so we can question them because that to me seems like the smartest I always want human intelligence I wouldn't be blowing up the boats I would be going down there and taking them

there's no reason that they can't take them alive they're blowing them up to make headlines they don't have to blow them up well the blowing up helps because it will ideally deter it won't deter things there's too much money and those people are too poor it's a trillion dollar industry or some shit

billions of billions of dollars and dirt dirt poor people people like it won't stop i mean again weeks of this have been going on and they're still going like like that's why i wonder who's behind this war what is it like now have drug prices gone up because of a lowered supply like what what what's the the i'm by cocaine or regular basis i don't know either i have no i don't know i don't this inflation's hitting everything for me and this that's a that's an awesome i think we can take them alive and i like a maga guy in florida who's furious at Pete Hegseth for cocaine prices that I want to meet that

guy. I was cool with all the other shit, dude. Shit's been stepped on so many fucking times. Godfam drunk. Fuck, I'm getting diarrhea to smell that shit. He's like pacing in his living room watching those boats get blown up like, fuck, fuck, fuck. Hegseth is failing my

morality test. And if the same thing happened under a Democratic president, I wouldn't be happy either. It's like you just can't fucking double tap soldiers clinging to boats. I and somehow the fact that they're not in my mind enemy combatants like there's no war with Venezuela right now Trump's just killing people under the guise of protecting us from drugs because he actually wants to influence the oil trade and hoping that the people who run the drugs

in Venezuela put pressure on the president and get him out and like he knows the cartels run shit in those countries and so he's trying to punish the cartel the circuitously right so that they do the war on his behalf like I guess get it, I get it. I hate that it's also devious and untrue and false motives. And he's just taking it out on criminals, pretending he's tough on crime while at the same time pardoning the guy who celebrated doing the same crime, shoving cocaine up us. I kind of split the difference between y'all because I have a much lower opinion of the cartels. I do think they need to be eliminated and killed and drone struck at their bases and training grounds. And,

and manufacturing places, all that. Like, I like the idea of treating them like we treated Al-Qaeda or ISIS and just having some predator drones over Venezuela, and occasionally a building blows up and we get some of them. And I'm okay with collateral damage when that happens too, because I think those are truly evil people. It's just that, like, once you've got the guy under your boot heel, you fucking put the handcuffs on them.

I don't, not doing that suggest that you were afraid of what that guy was going to say or who that guy might have been. It bothers me that Trump would happily partner with these people you don't like if they would help him achieve his political dreams of getting rid of the president. If they helped him with his ballroom, he'd be like, you know, cocaine's not that bad. Right. Makes you thin. I hate piggies.

You can use a little cocaine yourself, ma'am. Yeah. Well, my, I think my dinner's getting cold, gentlemen. It's been a fun. Yes, yes, we ran extra long. We should pop out. All right. PKN, 589.
